Glen Tavern Inn, Santa Paula, CA I had the pleasure of being invited to an investigation with The Pasadena Paranormal
Reserch Society at the Glen Tavern Inn in Santa Paula, CA. They
are a great group, dedicated and professional, and it was an honor to be invited. This is a hotel that is reputedly haunted. Upon walking in the front door for the very first time, I could
feel 'something'. I don't know if it was anticipation, or the feel of the history (being built in 1911)
or the smell of age and comfort. Everyone at the Inn was very
gracious and welcoming and very open to the events that have been experieinced in the Inn. Needless to say, it was an
adventure. I took many photos, I ran the video recorder, and
the Digital Voice Recorder throughout my wanderings in the Inn. I
took exterior daytime shots for my records, and one of them had a six sided orb and a mist - very visible, shot in broad daylight.
This only precluded the events to be experienced as the day, and night, went on. I came across a number of 'gel' orbs, and had a couple of experiences myself. My team had a couple
of experiences. I set up a video camera to record in my room while I was out. There was something there. I quickly put together a little music video of some of the pics and video I captured.
Once again, while editing, much like the Queen Mary Video, I saw something, that is unexplainable. At the very end of
the video I captured 3 'wisps' appearing like smoke in the entry to the 1st floor hallway. My focus was directed
there due to the calling out of a spirit who had a room right near that entryway, so I felt I might capture something...I
may have been right. Feelings often direct where I focus and I find they are a valuable tool to follow, a lot of the
time. The Inn was totally booked up and there were a lot of
people and normal activities occuring that I feel might have dampened the normal 'paranormal' activity that is usually
experienced. I have been invited back again, to experience
the Inn without the 'full house' activities, and hopefully capture more - of the 'paranormal'... |
