Our First Outing





Well, Lesa asked if I'd like to go to the graveyard and take some pictures one night. So I asked Rosalinda to go (she likes scary movies) and Lesa's sister was going to go as well. We went to the Mapleton Cemetery, that's where it all began... Lesa helped me by telling me not to catch lights in the shot, they can be confused for streamers, don't stay out after midnight and if you get scared (or scary feeling) get out. Don't ask questions, wonder why you're getting scared, you just get out. So, Rosalinda came all decked out in her good luck "clovers" - bracelets, necklace and PJ Pants - so the spirits couldn't get to her. It was a pretty cool night in March of this year, but I was so excited to get out and get some pictures.
We then went to the Springville Cemetery, I was a little spooked there. I was taking pictures away from everyone else, and all of a sudden all of the hairs on my head and arms were standing on end and I was creeped out! I dropped my hands to my sides and began to walk back to the car when Lesa took a picture of me - notice the streamers across my face and above my head (this picture will be a scanned picture, so I hope it works, if not - I'll see if I can get a copy from Lesa.) Here are a few of them with orbs and streamers. I don't know what the significance is, but they weren't when I took the pictures. Enjoy!!

DON'T BE SCARED!!!

Welcome to Paranormally Speaking... pretty clever name, huh? I wanted a place to record our adventures in Ghost Hunting, because I'm sure that there are a lot of you who are interested in this stuff ~ I know I'm not alone! So, welcome - pull up a chair and lets swap stories, pics and experiences.
I'll tell you how I got started on my paranormal journey. My dad died when I was just a baby so, that makes one curious from jump. I've felt him close at times, such as; important days, weddings, birth of children, times of crises, etc. But it wasn't until mom passed away in 2004 and my youngest was born in 2006 that I felt that I had actually been able to prove she was here. I got a picture of my husband and his parents with the baby and when I took a closer look and there is this "orb" in front of my mother in laws face. I just laughed and told the kids that I got a picture of the grandma's!

That piqued my interest and have been searching for more ever since.
