Paranormal Tips - EVP
This section offers advice on conducting paranormal investigations, particularly concerning Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVP). It emphasizes that investigations are often done at night for practical reasons, such as having full control of a building and minimizing external noise to better hear faint sounds. The core principle is to account for all normal phenomena before attempting to identify the paranormal.
Crypto-Zoology Information in Pennsylvania
Information is sought regarding sightings of Panthers, Mountain lions, Cougars, Thunderbirds, Large Snakes, Strange Creatures, and Bigfoot within Pennsylvania. Contact details for specific researchers are provided for these categories. The article notes that "Extraordinary claims require extraordinary proof that they are true."
It lists the most reported creatures in Pennsylvania as Cougar, Coyote, Wolf, Bear, Bald Eagle, and Blue Heron, while Bigfoot and Thunderbirds are the least reported. Notably, there were no reported Bigfoot or Creature reports in Pennsylvania in 2013. Furthermore, there have been no verified reports of Cattle Mutilations in the state.
Pennsylvania Legends
This section recounts the legend of Belleman's Church in Centerport, Berks County, founded in 1746. It mentions the ghost of Adaline Baver, who was murdered in 1857 and is buried in the church cemetery. Another story describes a tall, brunette ghost haunting the road near the church, appearing in bright clothing and disappearing after sitting cross-legged in front of cars.
