Paranormal Findings at MOA to be Revealed
Saturday, November 2, 2013, 7:00 p.m.
The
Museum of the Albemarle
invites you to the Gaither Auditorium on Saturday, November 2, 2013, at 7:00
p.m., to hear Mark Anderson and two members of his team, Chad Chappell and
Jennifer Seymour, as they discuss the findings of an on-site investigation into
paranormal activity in the new museum facility.
Since
the opening of the facility, several patrons have questioned the likelihood of
the presence of spirits lingering among the artifacts collected from the Albemarle region. So, late in the evening of September 21, a
small group of people, including members of Anderson’s North Carolina Paranormal
Researchers, entered the museum with staff to begin a search for evidence of
spirits. The group’s adventure was
recorded and reported by staff photographers and reporters of the Daily Advance and the Virginian Pilot.
With
exit signs as their only light source, Steve Baker and Seymour walked through
the reconstructed 1700s Jackson
House in the Our Story exhibit. There, a photo taken by Seymour showed a face in a pane-less window
of the house. An infrared camera placed
on the mantel also showed orbs or balls of light believed to be spirits. The team used digital voice recorders,
electromagnetic field recorders, and other equipment of the trade.
Attendees
of the program will be able to hear the team’s firsthand experiences and audio
from the night as well as video. An
attempt will also be made to create an actual test in the auditorium in order
for the audience to experience an investigation. Anderson
hopes that the audience will catch a glimpse of actual orbs during this
demonstration. After the presentation
and demonstrations, the team will host a question and answer period.
Anderson grew up in a haunted house in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, and has written and
published nine books, mostly fictional and children’s. He has a master’s degree
in information systems. He founded the
North Carolina Paranormal Researchers group about two years ago. They have investigated several houses and
buildings in the area including the Camden
County jail. Anderson is
currently an IT teacher at West Johnston High School
in Johnston County.
