PRISM Paranormal Investigations


 



SPRINGFIELD RESIDENCE


Springfield, NE




Ongoing Investigation

** Pre-Investigation: November 1, 2005 **
** Investigation: November 19, 2005 **





Location:
PRIVATE

History:

This small, single family, two bedroom, one bathroom house was built in the year 1900. It is a one story house, with an unfinished basement and attic. The home has been a rental property for over twenty years, and tragedies include two known deaths which have occurred in the house.

PRISM was contacted by Tiffani, Frank, and Tim. The three of them currently live in the house. They rent the home and have only been living in the house for four months, since July 1, 2005. According to them, paranormal activity began within two days of moving into the house. The activity includes doors opening and closing on their own, strange sounds heard (everything from footsteps heard in the attic, knocking on the doors, slamming noises, and voices heard), shadow figures witnessed walking past the windows, items being moved around, and reports of their dog "playing" with an unseen spirit. All the reported activity occurs at night.

The current tenants, Tiffani, Frank, and Tim were interviewed by Anney and David.
