| Burlington Prison Museum is located in Mount Holly, NJ. It was built
in 1810, and functioned until 1965. There is a bloody history that ails
the prison including, but not limited to, a guard that was beaten to
death in the early 1920’s, and the prisoner put to death for the
guard’s murder is said to be buried somewhere in the prison courtyard.
Investigators present consisted of co-founder and lead investigator Rob R., co-founder Boni B. The rest of the team was comprised of Robert, Dawn, Debbie, Keri, and Margaret. The equipment used is as follows: 35 mm cameras with 400 speed film or higher, digital cameras, laser thermometers, 2 EMF detectors, handheld camcorder with night vision, 2 still cameras, tape recorders, dowsing rods. We did an initial sweep of the building and the grounds, taking photographs and EVP’s. Rob R. and Margaret took pictures of the dungeon area on the second floor and took EVP’s. Robert, Rob R., Debbie, Dawn, and Margaret surveyed the basement area where the guard was killed. All of us felt cold spots. While Robert measured EMF, which was above normal in the cold spots, Rob R. started to get a feeling of sorrow and depression in the area. Outside in the courtyard, Boni B. pinpointed an indentation in the ground, where she felt the prisoner is buried that killed the guard. She also feels that there is more than one body buried in the courtyard. Dowsing rods used by Dawn and Debbie began to cross as soon as you walked into the indent, and would also keep pointing in the direction of the indent if you walked near it. Photographs and EVP’s were taken. Rob R. recorded night vision video on the second floor of the prison near the dungeon, you can see the clip of the “Ghost Face” on the Multimedia section of the web site. As a result of the investigation, we have concluded that we all felt
a presence there, and there will be a follow up investigation in September
to gather more evidence. |
