Investigation Summation:   After having and incredible investigation the first night, South Jersey Paranormal Research decided to return to the Hainesburg Mansion the following night to continue their investigation.  During the investigation researchers captured numerous EVP's and felt the presence of several spirits, including those of a woman and an angry man who seemed to want the investigators to leave.

 

Although members of NJPR were not present during the second night's investigation, they have graciously given us permission to repost some of their evidence.  Click here to view SJPR's complete report and evidence file.

This picture was taken as the team was in the turret room, concentrating on imagery.  Everyone was feeling the room get colder, then warmer and we were trying to track the cold spots.  Here, an orb can be seen near the ceiling.  
10:37 PM - Sherri H. (SJPR).

This photo was taken as Investigator Thornton said she felt very cold, suddenly.  She walked from the doorway into the main part of the room and even put her hood up to get a bit warmer.  In this picture, a small orb can be seen on the wall right in front of her 11:43 PM - Sherri H. (SJPR).

The voice of a young female was captured who sings, “Baby, mmm-mmm,” as though she is perhaps rocking a favorite doll.
-- 10:37 PM -  Kelly Groff (SJPR)

 

During a quiet time in the investigation one of the investigators accidentally “broke wind,” which made everyone laugh.  It was during this time we recorded this male voice saying, “Yuck!  Oh, man…..phew!”  The man’s voice sounds as though he may be African American. This EVP is significant in that it appears a spirit is directly interacting with the physical environment.
-- 11:13 PM -  Kelly Groff (SJPR)

 

An EVP of a man asking, “Can you hear me now?”  There was only one other male present during this investigation and he was not in the room when this EVP was recorded. -- 11:19 PM -  Kelly Groff (SJPR)

 

The team had moved into the room to the right of the main staircase.  We were discussing my encounter with the girl’s spirit the night before when Susan Bove recorded this female voice saying, “Call me back.”  She believes it is the same girl who was asking her to “contact” her again. -- 11:42 PM -  Susan Bove (SJPR)

 

A man's voice is recorded saying, "Thank you Kelly".  This is significant since the investigator who recorded it was named Kelly.  There was also no other males in the room at the time this was captured. -- 12:05 AM -  Kelly Groff (SJPR)

 

At the end of the investigation as the team was wrapping up, a woman's voice is captured singing and humming a happy tune.
