Birthday Hauntings and Human Pendulums at the Fairfield County Poorhouse Pt. 1

Send us Fan MailThe Fairfield County Poorhouse investigation delivers consistent, compelling evidence that leaves us wanting more. Built in 1828 with a peak population of 82 "inmates" (as patients were called then), the property carries heavy historical weight that seems to fuel its paranormal activity.Beneath the surface lies a disturbing discovery – the cemetery houses thousands of bodies buried standing up, with only six proper headstones purchased by families. This disrespect in death seems to amplify the spiritual energy that permeates the location. We encounter several spirits including Willie, an abolitionist who wanders the halls searching for something lost, and tragically, Jane Householder, who suffered an agonizing death after her clothes caught fire from a gas stove.Our investigation yields remarkable results through multiple techniques. The "human pendulum" experiment produces immediate responses as spirits use an investigator's body to communicate through subtle movements. Even more compelling is what happens during our spirit box sessions – two investigators at opposite ends of the attic, both wearing noise-canceling headphones, unknowingly begin answering each other's questions through spirit communication. This cross-location communication, impossible through normal means, suggests entities actively facilitating conversation between separate areas.Physical encounters intensify as the night progresses, with investigators experiencing extreme cold spots and the sensation of cobwebs moving across skin. Our most unnerving moment comes when unmistakable footsteps in the attic prompt concerns about a possible intruder, leading to a hasty exit through an emergency door while waiting for security to clear the building.Beyond this investigation, we dive into broader paranormal topics, including the supposedly relocated Annabelle doll and its potential connection to recent disasters, and the shifting energy we're feeling in the spiritual realm as we move further into 2024. We sense increased sensitivity and more frequent compelling evidence, coinciding with what feels like a collective spiritual awakening.Intrigued by the paranormal?
