HPI Chronicles: A Haunting in Natomas
By Paul Dale Roberts, HPI General Manager/Ghostwriter
Tonight I have a preliminary investigation to determine if a home in Natomas is haunted. I had to gather up a team quickly and being the General Manager of over 300 plus members of H.P.I. (Haunted and Paranormal Investigations International), I usually can muster up a team of ghosthunters-in-training rather quickly. The reason being is that most ghosthunters-in-training are hungry for an investigation. I placed my HPI magnetic car signs on each side of my doors and headed out of my home like Batman heading out of the batcave. The electronic garage door opened, the lights from my vehicle called the Ghost Tracker are somewhat blinding and out of the driveway I went. My neighbors stopped me and saw the HPI magnetic signs on my car doors and one of the neighbors says: "When those signs are on your car doors, it must be ghostbusting time!" I nodded my head yes and moved on down the road. I headed over to Starbucks downtown to meet up with my team of ghosthunters-in-training, they were: Monique Bialowas, Jennifer Moore and Louisito Celestial. I gave my ghosthunting crew a briefing on where we were headed and what we might expect from this investigation. After having everyone sign release forms, we all piled into my car. As I was having everyone pile into my car, I noticed my magnetic car signs were stolen. I was not in Starbucks more than 20 minutes and someone had already swiped my magnetic HPI car signs. I shook my head in disbelief.
To give my ghosthunters-in-training a taste of what an investigation is all about, I took them to a home in Sacramento that is reputed to be haunted. The home is located on 22nd and H Street. We did an outside perimeters investigation and the photos revealed some huge orb activity in and around the home. As my crew snapped pictures, people that were walking by were saying amongst themselves how the home is haunted. It was time now to head to the real investigation, the house in Natomas.
I was greeted by the occupant of the home, her name is Gina De La Rosa. She was there at her home with her friend James. I asked Gina to give us a briefing about the activity at her home. She explains that the home was built in 1964, it was originally owned by her grandmother. She explained to us that many family members who have passed on lived near and around this home. Gina has two daughters and they have toys all around the house. Some of those toys, especially one toy that Gina showed us, will start playing music. The odd thing about this toy, it doesn't have batteries. In the garage, things have been moved around. She has heard knockings on the living room wall and knockings in the spare bedroom. Sometimes her two young daughters will point at things that are not there. In the second bedroom she has detected cold spots.
After the briefing, we checked all the equipment we would be using this evening. We had 2 digital audio recorders, 2 digital cameras and one throw-away camera. We had ectoplasm dipped divining rods. Do not ask me how my divining rods were dipped in ectoplasm. I was told this, when the rods were given to me as a gift. As I searched my ghosthunting bag for my Listen Up Sound Enhancer, I made the startling discovery that my Sound Enhancer was misplaced at my last ghosthunt. Sigh. Now I have no Sound Enhancer and no HPI Car Sign Magnets. It's not easy being a ghosthunter, especially when vital equipment comes up missing. Oh well.
I broke up the team to explore the bedroom, bathroom area, living room, garage and the large backyard. We spent two hours investigating this home and from the evidence that I have analyzed so far, I have discovered some faint orb activity centered on the living room area. I checked for EVPs on my recorder and found no EVPs. Louisito did get an unusual EVP in the backyard. The backyard was extremely quiet and Louisito was out there by himself. The EVP he got was the voice of a small boy, that says...."wow!" It is a very distinct voice of a small boy and there is no small boy in the house. Gina is not aware of any small boy presence in the house either. One of my photos shows a strange pinkish light that emits along the living room ceiling. The second photo there is no pinkish light and the living room ceiling is normal. Other evidence needs to be further analyzed and the results will be placed in another article. As we closed down this investigation, James (Gina's friend) told us an interesting story, on how his little brother after death came to visit him for one last time to say goodbye. It was a touching story and I was glued to his every word. It reminded me of when my Chow after 16 years passed away. The 2nd night after his death, my bedroom smelled like him for a period of 15 minutes. The odor was enhanced ten-fold as I laid there with my other dog (a Jack Russell Terrier) named Pika. Pika during that 15 minutes started barking like crazy at the screen door, where T-Rex would usually enter to get into the bedroom. T-Rex on that night was saying his final farewell to Pika and I, by letting us know he was there, because of his unique odor.
