The previous post documented our investigations at Orange Hall in old St. Marys, Georgia. In the post we mentioned recording a few interesting EVPs. We are just now discovering the world of "white noise" EVP communications. We have learned from other experienced investigators that no matter what type of spirit you are dealing with- they usually will want to "talk". Learning to speak with respect and as if you are speaking to a regular person is very important. Doing your homework/research on a site and knowing a the facts of a spirit's story will also help with starting your communications. Also keeping in mind that generally we are from a very different time period than that of the spirit we are talking to is important. You should not use slang terms or heaven forbid any curse words. These will confuse and offend. We will attempt to add to the site one of our recordings from Orange Hall. In the recording we were walking in the basement pantry area- asking if anyone was there and if so if they wanted to speak to us. After reviewing the recordings we picked up a voice in the background....saying...simply "Behind you"
This will repeat on the recording for you. I must admit that if I had heard this audibly at the time I was in the pantry... I might have been tempted to make a quick exit!!! It definitely gives us chills still when we hear it.

Orange Hall - Saint Mary's Georgia
Early this fall we decided to wander down the road to old St. Mary’s to visit some haunted sites. One being Orange Hall, an antebellum mansion built in the late 1830s. Daniel immediately felt “something” on the site and had irregular readings on his K2 meter even in the yard and on the exterior of the old mansion. On our first visit he only took photos on the outside and caught on quite impressive orb that was certainly not of humidity or dust origin.
After additional research we returned to the site. We learned that the original owner the town’s Presbyterian minister Horace Pratt had built the home. Tragically his first wife died at the young age of 29. He remarried and named his first daughter after his lost love – Jane. Tragically this little Jane whom he loved dearly caught the yellow fever at age six and also died.
Orange Hall is said to be one of the most active sites of paranormal activity on the southeast coast. Many sightings of so called spirits, strange sounds, and unexplained happenings have occurred in the old mansion over the years. The Hall is said to be haunted by three spirits- one of an old man, an old woman, and a young girl of about 6 or 8 years old- she may be young Jane Pratt.
We did return to investigate the interior of Orange Hall and had some amazing experiences- including high K2 readings, temperature changes, some great EVP recordings and we even had a chair to move while we were there! It is not often that you can actually have things to HAPPEN when you are “hunting” but that is fun when it does. We did see several shadows pass by windows and were able to catch one on film which you can see if you look closely at this photo taken in the basement. There is also a photo of an orb on a sofa that was confirmed not to be a bug or dust. It was a great hunting night at Orange Hall.

Light Anomalies
As we stated in our article on orbs and orb streaks we do believe that some do contain forms of paranormal activity. Hunters and viewers alike should always be aware that many orbs and light anomalies can be explained by natural causes such as dust, humidity or other things such as camera straps, fingers too close to lens and even human breath too close to the lens when the photo was taken.
Rarely we catch what we refer to as “light anomalies”. These are often in streaks of color or unusual shapes of color. We aren’t sure if these are spirits, this is still under study. We have had higher readings with some of our equipment before capturing some of these phenomenon, but more investigating is needed to make any conclusions as to their origins. You also have to be aware that some “light anomalie” photos can be simply caused by double exposure or if a camera has been aimed towards a light source and then moved suddenly.
The samples below are of two different types of “light anomalies” we have photographed. One series of photos was taken at the St. Peter’s Episcopal Church Cemetery in Fernandina Beach, Florida – it shows several amazing purple and pink colored anomalies. Our K2 meter was showing very high and active readings during the time these photos were taken.
The second series shows a different type of light energy in a dark alley way in old Savannah, Georgia. The camera had not been moved rapidly when these photos were taken and several photos were taken at the same time, one at a distance to show the light activity that was in the area. It is hard to explain the source of the light or the directional movement- anyone?
