The Covington House: The Investigation

The Covington House is a white, split-level suburban home, on a subdivision street corner.  It is backed by trees, and a solid 6 foot wooden fence.  The client invited us to investigate the house due to her experiences as a child.  This house was her childhood home, and her parents still live there.  As a child, the client experienced the intense feeling of being watched while in her bedroom.  The feeling was so severe, she could not sleep, and eventually moved down into the basement where she experienced relief from the sensation.  The client's mother occasionally still hears disembodied footsteps in the upstairs hallway, near the client's old bedroom.  

We began by setting up base camp with the monitor and camera box.  Next, we placed our four 1080p night vision cameras: one in the client's old bedroom, one looking down the hallway, one looking out onto the front porch landing, and one facing the living room.  We had all of the reported active areas covered.

Client's childhood bedroom

We began our EVP sessions in the client's old bedroom, then moved to the master bedroom, workout room, then living room.  In the workout room, Meridith thought she saw something dart behind the team down the hallway, but was unable to catch it with the hand-held camera.  We reviewed the footage from the camera pointed down the hallway, and didn't see anything there.  We took a short break, then moved downstairs to finish up in the basement.

Evidence review revealed nothing out of the ordinary.  There were a few sounds, but we decided they were either house settling noises, or breathing/moving noises from the team. 

Although we didn't catch any audio or video evidence at the Covington House, it was a good investigation to help the client, and to test out our new equipment.​  Next week, we will be doing an overnight investigation at Blood Mountain Cabins in Blairsville, GA.
