Squirrel Cage Jail II
Investigation



Date: 10/9/10

Investigators Present: Kevin, Stephen, Glen, Shelly, Katrina & Cody

Equipment: 4 Channel DVR with Night vision Cameras, K-2 EMF Meter, MEL Meter EMF meter &
Thermometer, Sony Handy cam w/ Nightshot, Sony Digital Audio Recorder, Zoom H2 Digital Audio
Recorder, coordinated recording large diaphragm microphones. DSLR Camera with UV illuminator

Reports: Unexplained noises, Shadows and Apparitions have been reported – it is believed by some that
the jail is haunted by past superintendents. Teams have previously investigated the Squirrel Cage –
some reporting little activity or evidence, others concluding that the facility is profoundly haunted.

Investigation Results & Findings:

Sightings:

Experiences: Investigators Cody, Glen and Katrina were investigating solitary. Cody was standing in the
solitary cell and Katrina and Glen were in the short hallway leading to the cell. Cody felt that something
was squeezing his head and at the same time the K-2 meter spiked to the final LED. The team looked for
natural EM sources and later tested Cody for sensitivity to EMF, but nothing was found in either case.

Heard: A number of pings and clangs that are consistent with the make-up of the building.

Video Evidence: None

Picture Evidence: None

Audio Evidence: None

Conclusion: With the exception of one extremely interesting event, this was a quiet investigation.
