This is part 3 of the events over my birthday weekend last month. Our friend visited and we did a lot of activities. Today's blog is about a public paranormal investigation held at a local establishment and my experiences vs. what the group conveyed.
GHOST "HUNTING" - As a medium and paranormal investigator, I normally co-lead paranormal investigations, and this time I was an attendee from the public. I happened to read that a New Hampshire paranormal group was going to conduct a public ticketed "investigation" at the Summersworth Museum on October 18th, from 7pm-9pm. Since our friend Lynn was going to be here, I got tickets for Lynn, Tom and myself. The group said they connected with four ghosts, but I found one.

HOW IT WORKED: There were 19 rooms filled with history and thousands of artifacts. The Paranormal group guided attendees through the museum’s most active predetermined paranormal “hot spots.” The evening began with a reveal of evidence captured during the team’s September 2025 investigation. Participants learned how some ghost-hunting equipment worked. Led by members of the investigation team, each group rotated through different rooms of the museum during the two-hour event to support the Summersworth Historical Society & Museum.
MY PET PEEVE - One of my biggest pet peeves as a paranormal investigator is that the difference between a ghost and a spirit is not explained. The group didn't explain that there's a difference between ghosts, who are earthbound in a fixed location of their choosing - where they lived, worked, died, or were familiar with, versus a Spirit, who crossed over. They used the words interchangeably, and they are 2 different entities (as I wrote in my first book). That explanation was sorely needed.

MY FINDINGS: ONE GHOST - I found only 1 of the 4 entities was an actual earthbound ghost, and I learned his identity and the reason why he stayed behind. We were brought into a room with memorabilia from many past mayor's campaigns, that included an old desk from the city's mayor's office. The team suggested there was a male ghost in that room and his name may be "Jack" (the guy I connected with was not named Jack). They suggested he was a former mayo but there was nothing else to go on.
WHO IS HE? WHY IS HE THERE?
While on the public tour, I connected with a male earthbound ghost. He said he was connected to the desk. He told me about the year "1930" so I scanned the framed headshots of mayors that hung on the wall, and cited their years as mayor. I found the man. I asked him why he stayed behind and he conveyed that he accepted a bribe and regretted it. He didn't think he deserved to cross over. I telepathically assured him he did.
ABOUT THE OTHER 3 ENTITIES - The group said they connected with 3 other Earthbound Ghosts, but I realized they are Spirits who crossed over and came back when the investigators were near objects connected to them.
They included 1) A German soldier (because a WW2 German helmet was in a display), 2) A teenage girl who died in high school (school memorabilia was in an "Education" room), and 3) A nurse associated with the corpses of 5 babies found in a trunk in the 1950s (Story at bottom of this blog).

Just like when you visit a cemetery and pay homage to a loved one, their spirit can sense you there and they come around and give a sign. Some may appear as butterflies, dragonflies or birds while you're there. Others may bring people who resemble them near you. There are many ways they give signs.
1) The German Soldier- A talented medium heard German words in the military room and had no idea there was a German soldier's helmet there. She heard morse code (which turned out to be an "S.O.S" for help, and some actual German words (she didn't speak German). So, the Spirit (crossed over) of the soldier came back knowing he could share messages with the medium, because spirits know who has medium abilities. The soldier did not stay with his helmet.
2) The Teenage Girl - The team said they connected to a high school girl who died in school. They received audio answers on an Ovulis (replicates some words), when they were in the room with High School memorabilia. It was a perfect time for this spirit to come back and tell her story (she was also not attached to anything in the room).
3) The Baby Trunk - The corpses of the 5 babies uncovered in the 1980s were buried in a nearby cemetery. The case remained unsovled (see below).
TWO THINGS were happening in the room where the trunk was located.
A) A lot of residual energy of sadness, anxiety and depression generated by whomever put the corpses in the trunk. That energy stayed on it and when one sensitive came near it, she burst into tears. (NOTE: Residual Energy is energy generated from Emotions of living people that get absorbed into a structure or object, and when living sensitive people come near it, they feel those emotions).
B) The medium of the team said she sensed a woman in the room with the trunk. It was NOT a ghost. It would have been the spirit (crossed over) of either a nurse or mother of one of the infants.
WHY NOT A GHOST? Ghosts ONLY stay earthbound in places they lived or died, unless, like the mayor, they attach themselves to an artifact (which is rare). If you were the mother of one of the infants you wouldn't even know about the trunk.
BOTTOM LINE FOR ME - Although it was interesting to go on this investigation, there were some things that didn't make sense and needed more explanation. I would have offered it, but it wasn't my investigation. It was, however, interesting to see how other teams work.
********************************
STORY OF THE BABIES' CORPSES - The Somersworth "babies in trunk" case - The remains were wrapped in newspapers dating from 1949 to 1952, and Thomas told police they were from a "baby snuffing" ring and that the responsible party was already dead. The case is unsolved and has been linked to the 1950 death of a nurse, Irene Copeland, though no official connection has been proven.
