Phenomena captured on film: 
Using digital cameras we managed to capture orbs at rest and orbs in motion. We did not use 35mm cameras on this investigation. The area was saturated with air borne particles and it is hard to tell if an actual spirit Orb was photographed. With careful consideration we have determined that six of the orbs captured were indeed energy orbs.  

Summation: 
There were eight investigators on this project. We arrived at the Loony Bin at 12:30 am. At this time we started to set up equipment and interview staff members who had seen or heard what they felt was paranormal activity. 

The team spirit sensitives were sent into the building to get a feeling for how the evening would unfold. This evening the team spirit sensitives would be John and Melisa. The team medium was Violet. 

While they were in the building, I briefed the remaining team on the protocol that we would be following on this investigation and filled them in on some of the history of the building. We had to wait until the clean up was complete. The staff completed their work and exited the building at 2 am. 

Once the Loony Bin Staff was out and the sensitives had finished their survey of the property, I sent the others in to set up the cameras.  The building was smaller than expected so we split into two teams. One team worked while the other watched.

We had some battery issues while taking pictures. One of the investigators had to change out batteries in her camera twice, but as soon as she went outside the batteries started working in the camera. Sometimes batteries react to spirit activity and sometimes they react to the environment in which they are working. If it is to cold or too hot the batteries can die prematurely.  

Investigator Melisa felt that she was not alone in the back of the booth area. She smelled Old Spice after shave but that could have been left over from one of the customers.

 Investigator May had some activity in the booth area as well. She was sitting in one of the booths when she heard and felt what sounded like someone sliding in across from her. She looked at the seat and saw an indention in the cushion as if someone was sitting there. She later became very emotional in the women’s restroom for no apparent reason.

  Investigator and Team Medium Violet had several encounters during the process of the investigation. She feels that there are 4 spirits in the Loony Bin. Two of them are residual hauntings and two of them are intelligent hauntings. The spirits that she felt are three women and one male. The intelligent hauntings are comprised of one male and one female. The male is very upset about something and the female appears to be a hooker and poorly educated. The residual haunting is that of a young female in the ladies room. She appears to be very upset and is cutting herself.

Haunted or not? – It is a possibility. 
We weigh our evidence according to the following formula. Three categories:

1) Scientific – pictures, audio and instrumentation readings (50%)

2) Sensory – Sight, smell, touch, sound and taste (25%), and

3) Extra Sensory – Mediums and psychics (25%). 

We rate the Loony Bin as 15% Scientific, 15% sensory and 20% Extra Sensory for a total of  50/100. Without more scientific data to rate, we can only say that there is something paranormal going on in the Loony Bin but not necessarily a haunting. We ended the investigation late and left the club in the same condition it was found.
