The Turlock Investigation: Return of the Ragmuffin Kid
By Paul Dale Roberts, HPI Ghostwriter/Ghosthunter

7pm November 21, 2008, Friday. The cars start pulling up to my house. Paul’s HPI Task Force is ready for the investigation in Turlock. Paranormal Investigators showing up at 7pm are: Tom & Kathy, Mandy Lewis, Renee Martine, Tammy Straling.

The home in Turlock that we will be investigation was formerly owned by Cincinnati Reds Brad Lesley. The occupants that now live in this home are Chris & Tiffany Cameron and their two daughters. Chris’ mother Janice Cameron is my neighbor and she is riding up with me to Turlock. Meeting us in Turlock is independent paranormal investigator/sensitive Valerie Rankin.

The Ghosttracker (my car) has Renee, Janice and Mandy. Tom & Kathy & Tammy are in the other car. It’s a good distance from Sacramento, but we make it and are eager to conduct the investigation. I have written about the ghost of this home, that the Cameron’s have nicknamed the Ragmuffin Kid. The Ragmuffin Kid keeps their daughter up all hours of the night, insisting that she wants to play. The Ragmuffin Kid also wants to know how to play computer games! One of the games the Ragmuffin Kid wants to play is Spongebob. One of the daughters shows us a drawing she has made of the Ragmuffin Kid.

We had the Camerons turn off the lights and as pictures were taken, there were a slew of photographs depicting orb activity. EVPs were also gathered:

Renee asks “do you want to go into the light?” EVP answer – male voice: “Nooooooo.”
Renee asks: “are you afraid of being judged?” EVP answer – male voice: “Ahhhhhh”
Paul asks: “are you here?” EVP answer – male voice: “Yes” (sounds like a whisper).
Paul asks: “what is your name?” EVP answer – male voice: “Mark”.

When one of the investigators asks why don’t you want to go into the light, the closet light turns on by itself.

Certain investigators like Renee, Valerie and Kathy feel they are sensitives and pick up on certain activities around the house. Some of the psychic impressions they received is a Mexican girl named Louisa, a male entity with a small boy and small girl. Or a male entity and no children. Psychic impressions are not a proven science, but it is interesting to see the comparisons of their impressions.

A few of the investigators felt cold spots or felt something breezing by them. Some of the history of this house is that the bedroom door with lock on its own. One night the bedroom door locked on its own accord and locked in their cats.

We used the dowsing rods, and the dowsing rods pointed us into a bedroom where the entity indicated that it was present. Note: Dowsing rods are a pseudo-science and they are only used for experimentation.

David Mace, Paranormal Investigator discovered that there was a 7 year old named Rachel McClure that died in a car accident near the home and she was declared brain dead. There were other auto fatalities near this home.

As the lead investigator I broke up the task force into 3 teams, assuring that in each team we had a digital audio recorder and various cameras. The 3 teams would be dispersed into 3 areas of the home and later switched around.

Equipment used: 4 digital audio recorders, 5 digital cameras, pendulum, dowsing rods, EMF Reader.

FINDINGS:
Numerous digital photos show orb activity. The family has a long history of witnessing paranormal events that could indicate that the entities of this home could have followed them from a previous home. EVPs are recorded.

CONCLUSION:
After analyzing the EVPs, I conclude that this home is truly haunted. Note: I took notes on this investigation and somehow lost my notes. I wrote this article going by memory only. Let’s hope I did an accurate job in recording this investigation. I hate it when I lose my notes!

This was a long investigation and by the time we were finished we were pretty much tired. What we did not know is that on our way back to Sacramento, there would be a heavy fog on the road. We had to drive extremely slow on our trek back. Two of the investigators Tammy & Mandy decided to crash out at my house and wait until the fog lifted. I rather have my investigators in one piece, so they can be ready for the next investigation.

If my Turlock Task Force were to be caught or killed, the secretary will disavow any knowledge of their actions. Just joking, I thought I throw in a little Mission Impossible to this story! Until next time readers, perhaps we will get more than EVPs, maybe I will be able to catch a ghost in a mayonnaise jar and seal the lid as absolute evidence that ghosts exist!
