We need to start out by saying that this Investigation was one of the most Intense Investigations we have ever done, as well as one that we will be talking about for a long, long time!! We were there as Speakers for The Darkness Radio/Ghost Adventures Mansfield Event.

On the first night's investigation, we were with Aaron. It all started out in what is called The Jesus Room (Really a Protestant Chapel.) Although there was nothing holy about the EVP we were about to record. Amazingly enough, within 5 seconds of us turning our recorders on, and before we even spoke, we recorded an EVP that said "Aaron's Back". As of writing this, Aaron hasn't even heard it yet. During the same recording, Aaron asked if they liked it when people come in and try to communicate with you. The EVP we received was, "Agreed, That Was Fuckin Wicked". You could feel the room getting colder during playback, as if the Spirits were coming into the room to hear their voices.

With the second group. Mark & I returned from break & had to find our way back to The Jesus Room where we left our camera. I can't tell you the feeling of being out numbered, and feeling them closing in on you. We both totally heard footsteps behind us as we rushed back down the stairs... At this point we met Aaron in the Shower area. Usually we notice, that there is a feeling out process when we enter a new area of the building. Well, there was going to be none of that here. Once we turned on our recorders they were communicating like crazy. As a matter of fact, during one recording we recorded 12 EVP. Unbelievable!! You could feel that the Investigation was starting to heat up. At one point we had to stop when people, including Aaron, noticed moving shadows along the wall. None of us present we moving at all. The Third group Investigation was also done in The Shower Room.

Some of the more memorable EVP we recorded here are as follows:

• Aaron asked what they liked most about this room and they responded with "Electrocuting People".
• Another was when Debby asked how many Spirits were with us, and the answer was "Fifteen".
• Then Debby asked if they feel like they paid their dues? Although this was not a direct response to the question, they answered with "I'll Be There To Rape You". Very creepy!!
• We also recorded an EVP that said "Debby Bring Zak". When we recorded this, Zak was far from us, doing his thing in Solitary!
• At one point someone in the group, who happened to be a nurse at a prison, asked if anyone needed help. The response was "I Needed You".

We took the last group of the night up to the Attic. It is an area of the building that is usually off limits to the public, and the Spirits did indeed let us know that they were as curious about us as we were about them! Debby was the 1st one to enter the attic. She could hear people scatter like mice, but they were footsteps. At one point we noticed a light in the upper corner of the room that seemed to get brighter then dim on its own. Aaron decided to walk down towards the light and laid his flashlight on the ground facing away from us. He then came back and sat down. As we watched the light, it suddenly dimmed by about half. Aaron then said that they were new batteries. It was @ that point that Aaron started feeling very nauseous. So he got up and moved over to where we had the light dim. Guess he's a glutton for punishment. A few minutes after he sat on the floor, we could see figures moving next to, and behind him. All while he was hearing major footsteps behind him! On playback we received the screaming EVP "AAAAROOOOON"! It was chilling!

The second night started off with a loudly cracking Thunderstorm. Which totally set the mood, and we feel enhances paranormal activity...

On this night we were to Investigate The East Wing with Nick. We started out in The Toilet Room, then quickly moved to just outside, in the main cellblock just outside The Toilet Room. This is where one of the inmates jumped from the top floor and committed suicide. Not long after we started recording, one of the girls in the group said she was being touched on her leg. One of the EVP we recorded during this time was "Rapist".

With the next group we decided to go up to the 3rd level. A spot that Nick had honed in on late in the night during the previous nights Investigation. We decided to put everyone in cells. This is where all Hell seemed to break loose particularly in cell 44. The cell itself seemed to get unnaturally dark. Abyss like. We've experienced this before & our theory is that it's almost as though a portal is opening for them to either enter or leave. On this night there were many more that seemed to enter than leave. We started getting violent EVP seemingly right from the start. Early on while recording in cell 44, Nick started getting visions and thoughts of the woman we were recording with being headless. This was something Nick kept to himself, until that is, he heard what we had recorded. Which was an EVP that really struck home. It was "I'll Slit The Bitch"!!! Thought the night, almost every woman we sent in cell 44 experienced being touched inappropriately. Or, having their hair touched and feeling like someone was leaning up against them. A pressure feeling. Many also experienced feeling very nauseous. Which is not that uncommon, until after the 2nd group we witnessed a woman vomiting after leaving the cell. It was then we knew this was a special night :) Because out of all the times we have heard someone say that they were not feeling good or felt nauseous, we have never seen someone actually vomit. Interestingly enough, a large amount of the men we put in there experienced things different from the women. Things like vertigo and confusion. Like there was some sort of thought manipulation going on. It was so bad that whenever Mark was is the cell he had to lean up against the wall, as not to sway. At one point during the night we listened as twins both 2 male spoke, and were making no sense at all. It was truly bewildering.

Earlier in the night, and just after the first girl got touched in cell 44, we recorded an EVP that said "Who's First". What was interesting is that the gal being touched was a twin. Her sister was standing beside her.

At one point, Nick started walking very quickly past everyone down the cell block past where we had people in the cells. Debby followed him as Mark was alone with the guests @ the opposite end. As I followed him, I noticed his entire demeanor changed., His walk became different. He walked faster. I called him several times and I continued to follow him as he was not responding to Debby. I completely watched a person walk from the railing straight into a cell between us as I was following him. This was NOT a shadow person. It was a light, tight figure of a person. It almost looked like it could have been wearing a jumpsuit!

Debby caught up to Nick as he was about to round the next corner. His eyes were darker. (Debby has experienced this type of thing before with Mark) She could see he was confused & something was really trying to attach to him. At that point she started talking to him trying to ask "Real life" questions to help him become more grounded. ( Back in his body ) This seemed to help, so we carried on.

A little bit later in the night there was a woman that was in cell 44 by herself. So we went in and recorded, and asked her how she was feeling. She said she like she just wanted to snarl @ Nick. Then we were in cell 44 with another woman who was experiencing back pain. Debby's belief is that when this happens Spirits are trying to attach to you, so she turned the woman sideways. Then we recorded, On playback we got the EVP " I don't like when you do that"!

The most validating aspect of the night was that, as each new group would come in, we would make sure not to tell them what the previous group had experienced. We went so far as to not even tell them which cell had the activity. But without fail almost everyone that entered cell 44 experienced something similar to the group before.

We can honestly say that in all the years we have been doing this, we have never been to a location where whatever was there, was so experienced @ manipulation. And using our energy to it's advantage. It just got stronger and stronger as the night wore on. Nick echoed the same sentiment to us. It was also his first time running into something this strong.

Lastly, through the night we must have recorded Nick's name a good half dozen times. With one EVP saying, "I'll kill you, Nick".

Words really can't do justice to what was experienced @ Mansfield but I hope some of the EVP we are sharing with you will... Enjoy the ride!

Here are just a few testimonials about some people's experiences at the event. We've withheld the contributor's names to protect their privacy.

"My twin and I were your first group on Sat night. I was first touched on the cheek and lips in the toilet room. Then we went up to cell 44 where I was immediately touched on the thigh. You caught an EVP that said "who's first?". After that we went to Solitary with Zak. On my way there, my butt was forcefully grabbed. In Solitary, my twin and I were in a cell all by ourselves. That's when I was touched all over and I mean ALL over...everywhere. I was so uncomfortable that I demanded it to leave me alone and that it was not welcome. Whatever it was left me alone the rest of the night. Maybe it was the same entity following me then maybe it went back to cell 44 to pick on me."

"Hey guys, I was in cell 44 with you and Nick. I was touched on my upper thigh/lower butt, and it felt as if someone was pressing themselves against my right side, all the way up through my neck. It was a very uneasy feeling, and before you guys came in to do evp in there with me, I may have caught one on my recorder while it was just me, after I asked what you want to do to me, it sounds like, 'Fuck in here'. Great to investigate with you, that place is insane."

"I am a OSR Staff member and I was in the cellblock and was a witness to all of it. I was with the second group on Saturday. I saw the girl that got scratched and helped the Lady that got sick. The woman was so sick and after we got her out of building she was fine in 10 minutes and continued to hunt the rest of the night. It happened people!"
