In June of 2009, CAPT was contacted by a family in Earling Iowa in reference to paranormal events in their home. The clients also stated that their children were being effected by this activity which put this case on top of the case load. The clients have the following claims of activity:

• Full body apparition of a female

• Noises

• Voices

• Shadow figures

• Physical touching

• Persons injured

• Lights turning on and off by themselves

• Rank and rotten odors

• Mental manipulation

• Objects being moved under 20 lbs

CAPT researched the property, as we attempt to do on all our cases, and gathered what little information was available. The home was built in 1877 with additions added at later dates. The home has no violent history that could be found and has always been a dwelling.

CAPT arrived on site and met with the homeowners. We conducted a walk through of the home and property and was advised of the areas of activity. CAPT took a few moments to have a short meeting as we had a brand new person with us and then set out to set up equipment to cover the areas mentioned.

CAPT stayed as one (1) team this time and started the investigation on the homes second floor. The investigators took out new member under their wings and showed her how we do things, soon an EVP and photo session was being conducted in this area and the toy room. Chris was a bit more relaxed this investigation while asking questions and of the questions asked, a response was given each time showing us that the entity “Claire” was intelligent. The questions asked were of her watching the kids for their safety and is something else there. We got a knock and a “yes” out of these questions. Another question was asked about someone other than her turning the garage light on, another knock was given in response.

CAPT then moved into the children's rooms and asked more questions. Connie, our new member, became illish feeling and had to go downstairs while Gina was becoming angry for no apparent reason. The team took a break and asked why this happened and Gina said she felt like hurting people and Connie said she was dizzy and getting a headache in these areas. A CO2 meter was used upstairs where carbon monoxide was ruled out as the reason for these feelings.

Chris and Mark then went back upstairs to bless the area and while doing so Gina yelled “stop” and “Stop pissing him off”. We concluded and heard the dog barking out front. We felt the entity had gone outside so the team went outside after it.

The rest of the house and grounds were covered and CAPT concluded the investigation, packed up the equipment and set out for evidence review. All captured evidence is listed below.
