Parties of Jodi, Kola, Sam and Sean,

Thank you all for such a great ghost hunt. With the amount of activity that was coming out of the SB7 Spirit Box (the black one with attached speaker), I decided to focus on the recording from the SBox. Of course, you can listen to the regular audio to get the SB7 words that came out and take a look through my notes below on the digital spirit box list.

Check out these markers from the SBox audio above:

20:41 “Open your eyes”

24:48 “Stay”

31:52 It’s muffled, but the noise is odd.

35:58 “Gotcha”

44:52 Muffled

58:42 “I’m Ben” this is also muffled, but we would’ve been in or near Lodge Alley at this time. “BENJAMIN” is often a name I see here and he was a resident of Lodge Alley in 1790. Here’s the validation, page 12.

59:42 Muffled

1:21:24 “Dave” or “Day” We would’ve been near the end of Dueler’s Alley at this time.

1:22:18 “Twenty-Two”

Just for clarification, Jodi texted me after we parted ways letting me know that Poogan from Poogan’s Porch was fed from the construction crew that renovated Zoe’s home. This is a clarification that Zoe did not indeed feed or may not have even known Poogan himself.

You guys were a very fun group and I’m glad you all enjoyed yourselves. Your reviews on the platform where you ordered your tickets mean the world to me. If you could take a few minutes and review your experience I would appreciate it. You should have an email from the platform where you ordered your tickets.

Some of you inquired about the tools we used last night. At the top of this page, you’ll find the list of apps we used along with a link to a separate page of all the different tools we used and where to get them.

Also, some of you also inquired about the podcast. My podcast is what started these interactive ghost hunts and has the same name as the tours: Stories in the Cemetery. You can listen to it on any platform. I have episodes coming up on the Flight 93 Memorial, Gettysburg and Falling Waters.

This article has a theory that George Poirer was really someone else name Washington Whilden. Whilden  died weeks before he turned 52, which correlates with this term and the “22” from the SBox audio, with the “2” being prominent. Thoughts?  

8.27.20 Tour 9PM Skye Shane

Skye and Shane:

I’m sad to tell you that the SBox spirit box did not record your session.

But I’m very excited to give you some very solid evidence, probably one of my best conversations yet. Check out 47:00-49:00 on the audio file above. You’ll hear Eliza telling me what happened to her house with distinction.

I left you some notes and links on the digital spirit box words below. I appreciate the work you guys put in last night and the evidence proves we were successful with conversing with the dead spirits of Charleston.

Your reviews mean the world to me. If you would take a minute and review your tour on Groupon, it would greatly be appreciated. Here’s a shortcut to the groupon event: https://www.groupon.com/deals/charleston-cavalier-tours

8.26.20 Tour 9PM Jill

Click here to view your photos taken during the ghost hunt.

Family to Jill,

Great job to you guys! There’s plenty of evidence in your set of data to review.

Check out these markers on the thermal imaging video:

47:56 There’s a dark spot (bluish-black) that appears for a split second on the left side of the screen.

58:43-58:45 The doorway is expected to be blue from the possible air conditioning coming out of it. But take a look, frame by frame, how it extends upwards. This cold current should be shooting straight out from the doorway, not extending up the alley.

On the SBox Audio:

31:22 “Revealed what?”

32:18 “Disbeliever”

36:02 Muffled/Disembodied. It goes over top of the static

1:03:52 “Video” I can only imagine that this is a reference to the Lodge Alley cold current Dayton captured above.

You guys did a fantastic job and this was a pretty active night. As you’ll see in the notes below from my digital spirit box, I was corrected on one of my stories near the St. Philip’s Cemetery. I really enjoyed your enthusiasm and questions.

As for the tools/apps I used, scroll to the top and you’ll see a link. All apps I used have free versions, but know the Ghost Detector app was purchased with an extended vocabulary of over 9,000 words.

I hope the rest of your vacation is just as exciting as your ghost hunt. Safe travels back to Minnesota. Please check your email from your booking site to leave a review. Your thoughts/comments mean the world to me and my research.

Unfortunately, the thermal image video file is corrupted and cannot be uploaded.

Parties of Kimberly and Morgan,

Please see my notes below on the word list from the digital spirit box. Typically, there are only 45-65 words per list, but your list had a whopping 93! Please let me know if you see anything in the list that pertains to something you experienced.

Kudos to Morgan for taking such great pictures! Once you take a look through pics from your ghost hunt, be sure to check out the Evidence folder as well.

Check out these markers on the SBox Audio:

29:32 Muffled sound

30:19 “Going Down”

35:05 Muffled sound

54:59 Odd noise, muffled.

These are the types of sounds/voices that I look for. Although, I didn’t go through in completion, I usually review these in it’s entirety if the ghost hunters (that’s you) emails me or texts me about other sounds/voices they heard. I looked for the word “FIRE” and couldn’t seem to find it based on the time stamps of when we were there. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me in the event you find more words or evidence in any of the data. You can reach me at nicholasmcgirr@gmail.com

Of course, your reviews mean the world to me, so please take a minute to check your email inbox for an email from the agent where you booked your tickets and leave a review (Groupon, Peek, Trip Advisor, Viator).

8.22.20 Tour 9PM Kimberly Stephanie Warren

Parties of Kimberly, Stephanie and Warren,

Please see my notes below about the terms from the digital spirit box, but I really want to direct your attention to the second thermal imaging video. Warren captures thermodynamics in the opposite effect. Thermodynamics Law basically states that if a cold spot is formed, a heat spot must also be formed from the transfer of temperature. Temperature cannot be created or destroyed, so if a cold spot is created by the paranormal, then essentially, another spot must “heat up” somewhere else. This is where Warren’s video comes in.

Check out marker 11:00 on the second video. See that warm spot in between all of us as we are about to leave the Pinckney Mansion site? It gets warmer. It goes from 84 degrees to 88 degrees! This means that there was a cold spot forming somewhere nearby and we caught the after affects of the paranormal manifesting! This is a huge discovery for me since I’ve never seen this happen before. To read more about Thermodynamics, check out the article I’ve written: Thermodynamics.

Marker 19:50 on the second thermal video: Someone standing in the middle, their knees seem to turn cold? I will dive into this one further, but it’s very odd that the camera was relatively still and no one else’s legs turned into that bluish color.

Guys, you all did a great job and I’m very excited about the thermodynamics we caught on camera. This is truly amazing stuff! Please don’t hesitate to email me any of your other findings. You can send them to nicholasmcgirr@gmail.com. Put your tour date and time in the subject line so I can revert back to the correct data. Also, your reviews mean the world to me, if you wouldn’t mind checking your email and from wherever you booked your tickets, I would greatly appreciate it.

Parties of Elyse, Janet, Jessie and Kristen,

I wanted to thank you all for putting up with my belly issues last night and allowing London to take over from time to time.

I will be reviewing your full audio and thermal video once I get settled in Pennsylvania for my ghost hunts in Gettysburg and some surprise new locations. They will all be featured on my podcast with the same name: Stories in the Cemetery.

I left some notes about the digital spirit box findings below. Also, London’s spirit box came up with “CHAIR”  by the Wagener Building which is significant to the pile of furniture that George Poirer used to swing his own noose.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any of your findings in the data.

8.14.20 Tour 9PM Chris Courtney Kendall Laura

Parties of Chris, Courtney, Kendall and Laura,

Only one photo came up on the memory card and I’ve placed it above. I know there were at least 4 pictures taken, so it’s a mystery to me what happened to the other three.

I left some notes below on the digital spirit box app word list below. I would say “GREEN” is our biggest piece of evidence of getting an intelligent response last night through that particular spirit box.

I am leaving some markers for the second audio listed above. This should give you an example of how to listen to a spirit box and relate the words from the dj’s, songs, commercials and disembodied voices to ghost hunting. In the SBox audio above, check out these markers:

13:47 Powerful

21:48 (disembodied voice, cannot make out clear)

22:53 Smile at them

35:45 (Another disembodied voice that I cannot make out)

1:01:49 This parade (we were walking at the end of Dueler’s alley where all the other tours were coming through)

1:07:32 Damage

1:08:48 Damage ( I normally wouldn’t note this generalized term. We were near the Wagener Building and I was asking George Poirer to tell me about what happened to the ship. Most times an intelligent response would give us “fire” or “flame”, but damage coming up twice is also significant)

I want to thank you all for sticking through the rain storm at the beginning of the night. If anything, the thunder makes for some creepy sound effects on your audio! I will be reviewing your thermal imaging video early next week but please don’t hesitate to reach out to me in the event you have questions or solid evidence in the data.

Now…..time to pack up for ghost hunting in Gettysburg!

8.12.20 Tour 9PM Ann Chris Dzana Kameren

Photos taken during your ghost hunt.

Parties of Ann, Chris, Dzana and Kameren,

On the SB7 spirit box, a question was aked “Who’s here?” with a definitive “Trevor” as the answer. Then “Why are you here?” was asked with the answer of “Clean the stables”. Notice the word “CLEAN” at the start of the digital spirit box word list.

I found nothing abnormal in the pictures other than a few really great shots of Lodge Alley. Nice job!

We had a “sensitive” in the group last night. After I gave you all questions to ask, this person approached me and asked if the Pinckney Mansion had burned down. They were absolutely correct. They also picked up how Eliza Pinckney had died: breast cancer.

SBox Audio Markers:

7:27 “I don’t want to…”

9:55 “Okay…speak”

16:26 “Connection”

43:49 Female voice, disembodied, cannot make out, needs further analysis.

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to me with any other further evidence you find in the data. It was truly my pleasure to take you and your families ghost hunting in our very haunted city. I am also grateful for reviews and anyone can leave one on the Trip Advisor link above, or you should have an email this morning from wherever you booked your tickets. You can email or text your findings: nicholasmcgirr@gmail.com, please leave your name and the date of your ghost hunt.

Photos taken during your ghost hunt. 

Parties of Joseph and Krishna,

Read the notes I left below on the words from the digital spirit box. I am getting very excited around the names and data I’ve been collecting around Lodge Alley, so thank you for the contribution below. I’m discrediting the terms “DINNER” and “PASTA” because as it turns out, Zoe St. Amand was a school teacher, not a restaurant owner. Poogan’s Porch is currently a restaurant, and it was my assumption that she too, held this location as a restaurant.

I have a few appointments this morning, so I will be listening to your audio later today and watching your video later in the week. Please don’t hesitate to reach out in the event you catch something before I do. I really enjoyed hearing your stories and looking at your pictures after the tour and learned some new things even after we all parted with a conversation I had with some gentleman nearby. In the event, that the new story I learned proves to be true and there’s evidence listed in your data, I will be sure to update you.

Feel free to reach out to me via email if you need to: nicholasmcgirr@gmail.com

8.9.20 Tour 9PM Shelby Ray Telasia Jake

Photos taken during your ghost hunt.

Hey Guys,

Great investigation last night. Very excited about the notes below while we were in Lodge Alley. This confirms the other words I have gotten there before and some of the strange lighting/shadows in previous pictures. Speaking of pictures, I lightened and zoomed in on an area of the ground in Lodge Alley for further analysis from my wife, April. She’ll be able to tell us if anything is there. I’ll keep you posted. Check out the “Evidence” folder while you’re on my SITC Facebook page.

See these markers in the regular audio:

44:57 “Burn”

46:44 “My Husband”

See these markers in the SBox Audio

46:40 “W” I normally wouldn’t notate this, but it came up in the list below as well.

47:22 “Give these to me”

1:11:06 “Undercover”

1:12:50 “Let her know”

1:14:00 “Jake”

I left a few links in the text below, so be sure to validate the evidence. Most of the locations we visited, I’ve done a blog post and/or a podcast episode for. You can find the podcast on any podcatcher: Stories in the Cemetery is the name of it.

I’ll be watching your video later this week, but please don’t hesitate to reach out to me in the event you find anything at all. And of course, Trip Advisor reviews are all welcome, there’s a link at the top of this page.

PS, apologies if I spelled Telasia’s name incorrectly.

08/09/2020 – 21:23: BIKE (.45) The bike taxi station is at the corner of the red barn lot.  I’ve had this word come up before near the bike taxi. I need to investiagate the bike taxi personnel.

Photos taken during tour.

Parties of Diekola, Shannon, Sharla and Zach,

Some audio markers for you to check out:

11:40 “Parted”

16:18 “That was interesting”

I made some notes for you on the terms below. There are two names that came up that I researched further and although I’m not dubbing them as paranormal evidence now, that status may change if more evidence comes through at a later date. Pinckney Ezekiel and Sir Julian Corbett. I found both of these interesting and the details of these men could prove further hauntings later. In other words, these could turn into new legends that other historians and ghost tour guides will come to talk about on their tours. This is a first for Stories in the Cemetery, and who knows, it could be TWO new legendary hauntings.

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to learn more about the ghost hunting fieldwork and exploring different gadgets.

Your video was spliced together from four different videos and took some time to correlate together. I will be reviewing early next week and let you know of any findings. In the event you find any new evidence in any of your data, please don’t hesitate to reach out. It was my pleasure to take you out ghost hunting and I’m very excited that the evidence you collected could become part of two new ghost stories to tell.

Ward 12 is a little further north of where we were located, but found it interesting to find his physical address (Ashley Avenue) and learn that he was a brick mason. I’m not saying this is a direct tie to the activity, but I also can’t rule it out either, especially if it something else comes up later.

I will be doing a full review of your ghost hunt after this weekend. Please see my notes below on the words from the spirit boxes.

Parties of Sierra, Tori and Zak,

Super excited about the pics above. I will be sending over to my wife for further analyzing. She does all my graphic design work and is also a photographer. If there is anything debunked, I will be sure to let you know. Great job to Grace for the awesome pics she took!

Also, in the notes below for the spirit box word list, the word “SHINING” came up referencing the green orb seen in the pictures. Read more about orbs and their colors here: ORB COLORS. “SHOOT STREET” also came up referring to Dueler’s Alley, something I haven’t heard before.

On the regular audio recording check out the following markers, these are terms I heard through the SB7 Spirit Box that Tori had:

13:00 “Red…”

14:08 “Eighty-four”

28:10 “Right There”

29:01 “See Everyone”

1:14:22 “House”

I will be reviewing your thermal imaging video through the weekend. If I find anything of note, I will be sure to update you. As for now, it is still processing (I had to rotate the video since it started off vertical, I didn’t think you all wanted to turn your heads sideways to watch it. LOL)

If you find anything in your evidence please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. Grace, if you could email me your word list, I will update this page once I have it with any notations needed. Guys, can’t thank you enough for a successful hunt! Trip Advisor accepts reviews from all guests, no matter where you booked your tickets. See link above, your feedback keeps new ghost hunters coming on the tour and is greatly appreciated.

8.1.20 Tour 9PM Christy Dana Laura

To view all photos taken from the tour: Facebook Photos

Parties of Christy, Dana and Laura,

What a great night of evidence! It’s ghost hunts like yours that I thrive for. The pictures above have an explanation:

Picture 1 shows a still taken from my cell phone of the thermal imaging video at marker 1:04:04 while we were leaving Lodge Alley. Without Jim stopping to record side areas of the alley we wouldn’t be able to validate Picture 3 that Bill took of an odd shadow out of place near the grate of the window. I put the video still in black & white (Picture 2) so that you can see it more clearly. Also, your first instinct might say that it’s just someone from the tour, but notice there’s no “red” heat signature around the edges of the yellow. The yellow heat signature in question merely shows that it is cooler than the orange around it, meaning, it doesn’t necessarily need to be “blue” like I mentioned in the beginning. All ghost hunters in that alley have red heat signatures as their “aura”. This shape is unexplained at this point, but I will send this over to my wife, and we will analyze this further.

I left plenty of notes below based on the digital spirit box app and I will be analyzing your audio from above after the weekend. You may not know of the “COKE BOTTLES” that was heard from the SB7 spirit box by two different hunters when asked “What’s next to you, Eliza?”

Bill’s feelings of celebration and victory were spot on for Lodge Alley. And the warning of “LEAVE SAFELY STREET” listed below are also very noteworthy.

There are four pictures that showed unexplainables and after you check out the full folder for your tour, check out the Evidence Folder on Facebook as well. I added the four from your ghost hunt. Hopefully, you’ll all be followers of the SITC page after you view.

I don’t normally add this many notes to a tour, but the video/picture evidence from above is exciting and I hope you all had a great night and learned a thing or two about actual ghost hunting. There’s a link above for the equipment that was used (some of you asked about them) and the apps. You all are greatly appreciated and I look forward to hearing back from you about your findings in the evidence. Don’t forget to rate your tour on Trip Advisor or wherever you booked your tickets.

Nick

08/01/2020 – 21:08: WILLIAM (.5) I think it’s obvious that this refers to Bill from our tour and goes along with “GIFTED” below. Bill told us he was sensitive to paranormal activity before we started on this venture.
