The following investigation you are about to read about is called Ridgewood, this investigation was conducted in South Central, New Jersey.  We were contacted by a couple that resides there.  They stated to us that the husband had seen a transparent full body apparition in the corner of their master bedroom.  Thus seeing what looked like a child he got closer and noticed that the child apparition was transparent, in seeing this of course he was startled, ( I also would have been ).  They also reported that a child's voice came over the television saying DADDY, when this happened the TV mysteriously went to static just before the voice was heard then returned to normal screen.  The wife had heard strange noises as well.  The house is only about 13 years old and it is believed that the area was farm land before the house was built.

The investigation was conducted on February 26, 2005.  The investigators present were Rob R, Boni B, Keri and Dave G.  We started the investigation with a sweep of the site with EMF detectors noting any spots that may cause a false positive reading.  Every room was tested for average temperature so as we could note any fluctuations.  All of the heating vents were shut and noted of their location.  After the sweep we set up our monitor station in the basement, that is also where the residents viewed the investigation process from.  From that point Boni and myself (Rob) situated ourselves in the guest room where activity was noted by the resident, Dave and Keri stayed in another room where the child apparition was reported to have appeared.  One wireless IP camera was located there and the other was in the guest room.  Boni and myself let the room settle and we started the microcassete as well as begun using EMF detectors as well as started taking temperature readings.   Our temperature readings started to fluctuate so we started taking photos.  Boni had a 35 mm with 800 asa as well as a digital camera, her EMF detector was a Cell Sensor brand.  I had a Samsung digimax camera as well as an EMF detector, we both had digital thermometers.  Dave and Keri also had digital cameras as well as a digital thermometer.  In the living room we started a cassette recorder with an external microphone, we also set the TV to static, which was the state of the TV during the reported voices.  At first there was not a whole lot of activity to report.   After reviewing the microcassete within the first 10 minutes in the guest room their was some whispering as well as strange voices captured, they sound like that of an older male. They will be posted on the MULTIMEDIA page soon.

As the night progressed it turned 9 PM, without warning the activity seemed to start.  Dave was in the dining room as I sat in the sitting room which is open to the dining area.  Dave started to feel cold about his left elbow and arm so I used a laser thermometer, I was sitting approximately 15 ft away.  The average tempeture in that area was 63 F, when I shot the laser it read 51 F, so I shot pictures. Which you can view below on this page.

The night started to provide many temperature drops as well as EMF readings, too many to get specific.  Shortly after 9 PM we asked the husband to come to the first floor, as it seemed the activity may have been centered around him.  Our assumption proved to be correct.  We had many positive readings with our equipment as well as documentation of video anomalies.   We have very good orb photos of the resident on the stair case.   These are not dust orb's, all our orb shots are carefully selected to coincide with equipment readings.  I would also like you to look at the photo's shot near the couch, what you will see is orbs in motion, these are really good shots.

After careful review, our team believes that the residence is very active with visitors from the other side, we always take great care in coming to this conclusion.  We take into consideration every aspect of our investigation then added with our interview material we make our decision.  This house is definitely a GARDEN STATE HAUNT (tm).

Please review all the material we have presented and draw your own conclusion.   I wish I could post every detail but then I would have to write a book.  We try to present the material in a summarized manner to give you, the curious, a basic idea of what we encountered and gathered.  Please feel free to make your own judgements, any feedback is more than welcome.   I ask that you that you take into account all the equipment we use and the techniques used to gather the information, examine the photo's and let us know your thoughts.
