Private Home Investigations

 By Chris Baricko

This blog is about some questions I have been asking myself lately and would like some feedback.

I have been investigating the paranormal over 25 years now. I started out as most to get answers and help people. But I have noticed over the last 2-3 years it seems some people think it is a thrill to have a groups come out to their home.  I will start from the past to present.

We got a call to go to a private home. They claimed a man hung himself next store and was haunting their home. When we arrived there were only 3 people there. By the time we were done setting up there were 5. We asked why they were there? They said they wanted to tell us there experiences. So we listened then left them with a sheet of paper in case they seen anything on the DVR they could write it down for us to review later.

So we started in the basement after 45 minutes we decided to move up to the main floor. Well this is when we walked in on the party. The kitchen was packed with people and looked like a bar there was so much booze. Needless to say they were drunk as a skunk. So we knew was a waste of time and started packing up. Before we got everything ready there were 3 police officers at the door asking them to come outside. We told the police who we were and said we were leaving. They said the people who lived there are known well to them.  I will try to post what they wrote on here.

Then we got a call for another home were the people said there house was haunted and they were ready to move out. They had a child so we went the extra mile as most do. We drove 2 hours once again (45 for some of us) to set up the DVR and let it run for a few days before our investigation. We wanted to see if we can validate any of their claims. I got a call that the child was running around like he was getting chased. They also said they seen a man in the room. They gave us the time it happened so when we did the review we did not see anything but the son sleeping every night even at time of their claim. They were set that it was something evil.

We did a total of 4 investigations there. We brought in a medium and she said there was a man there but was not evil. We did get 2 EVP's from the home but nothing negative or evil. When we sat down and explained to them what it was & who they said at first they would follow what we told them to make the man go away.  They were still so focused and convinced it was evil they had another team come in and they did not find anything either. So they called us back. When we told them what to do and not focus on it so much they get upset and said it is evil. They then stopped contacting us and that was it. We refuse to tell people what they want to hear just to agree with them

Then we did another home were the clients said they heard voices and seen shadow figures. When we walked in they were watching a paranormal show. Right away we started to think here we go again. So 1 investigator was doing a Q&A we investigated the home. We got nothing at all, And as we do with every case nothing showed up in the history of the land or home. When we gave them advice to not focus on it they said they would.  Not more than a week later they started doing their own investigation and contacting other groups.

Then we got a call from a person named Steve in East Haven, CT.  I Just got that feeling things were not adding up. So with a little leg work and networking with other teams and people we quickly found out this was a dumb ass trying to get his jollies. He contacted just about every group in CT a few in RI and MA trying to get them to come to his home. When 1 investigator called the home the mother was in shock. She said she told him to stop calling paranormal groups and was glad the investigator called. So he just wanted to waste peoples time and show up at his parents house for what reason we do not know. But for the record it was not a child. He is a 35-year-old man.


So why do some people think it is nothing but amusement at paranormal investigators expense. They do not know just because we do not charge them don't mean we do not pay for all our equipment. Gas and time. They get upset if you refuse to give them the answer they want to hear. They then group shop till they find a fly by night group who will agree with them in hopes of getting their name out there. Yes they get there name out there but not in the way they hoped.  So to anyone who thinks your location has paranormal activity please do not think it is a joke or do it for your own thrills.  One thing we are thinking about is if over a hour away to have them cover our expenses in advance. This would hopefully make them think twice before having us come out.

Chris B said...

Anonymous your really stupid i never reported the Mark Twain house to anyone. It was The Victorian mansion. So pull your head out of your button and gets your facts straight before you write. Kirby trace the IP anonymous address so we can see who don't gets any facts bit spews false statements

Chris B said...

Once again either say your name or STFU you coward . This blog has nothing to do with any of your endless rants grow up and get over it

Anonymous said...

Such language dipshit

Amanda R said...

Anonymous why are you so scared to tell us your name? I mean you talk a whole lot but from the shows.
Then you bring up other things that have nothing at all to do with this Blog. Really grow up and say your name if not move on. I am sure from what I read Chris does his homework and he always posted facts to back them up. So I am sure he can track who you really are and that is what your scared of what he might uncover about you?
So grow up stay on topic of what this blog is say your name or move on Chris if you can please delete and block this person.
Now as far as the blog it self. We have been running into the same problem and also thinking about charging travel expenses to the client. I agree it's out of control . Everyone wants to say there house is haunted.

Hey Anonymous, Is your name "Sue" by any chance if it is GO BEND A FORK !!

The problem here is that Kirby, Chris, Even and Darlene attack people without knowing these people and without thinking that the skeletons in their closets won't come to the surface. Each one of the four have things that they would not like to be brought out into the open along with proof to back them up. That is the problem with this blog and the one sided attacks of the four and if anyone dares to comment back they are enraged and want them to show their names, well if the name is shown so is the proof about the truth of the four. Now what would you like?

I agree totally and chris you shouldn't tell people to shut the f up

So you admit you called the health dept because you didn't get you're way what a piece of shit

David B said...

It's nice to see that all you posting as Anonymous are just proving Chris's point 100 correct. Your all cowards. So who is as big as the rest of us to say your name? Or are you to scared that you have skeletons in your closets that Chris will uncover. Love him or hate him you all know he he always gets the facts and proof to back them up. So by none of you willing to say your names your hiding from something your are scared he will uncover. NOW WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE.

As far as the Victorian I can tell you Chris is spot on. That place is falling apart. He has been doing events there for 5-6 years claiming all the money was going to repair the Mansion. So if that was true why did the City close them down? Easy he did not any major repairs into the home. I walked into City hall he never pulled any permits for any work. The City is even disgusted with how bad the Mansion is falling apart when I went in. They said they were hoping the new owner would restore it but never did. SO it was nothing more than a cash cow.. So if that Mansion can be sold or the City take it over and restored to how it should be I am hoping. I drive by it almost daily. It is a shame.

Chris B said...

OK I will make this very very clear.
Anonymous I will take that as a threat. If I see or hear of any slander or photo's of my family you will be arrested and sued. Last time someone posted photo's I filed a police report and then let it rest. This time I will not. They can very easy trace your IP address and location. This is your one and only warning. So you tell me WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE.
Clearly your hiding or scared to say your name for some reason.
Now Why did I call the City. SO everyone is very clear. I was asked to help do a fundraiser for the Mansion. I said I would. I sent him a contract to sign saying he will keep 100% of the money to be used for repairs at the Mansion. Then in return we would be able to hold a fundraiser for our group .He got nervous when I said is the Mansion safe. He told me about all the problems. So I called the city to get a permit to hold the event as required by law.
They said if the Mansion was not up to code I can't do any event due to safety concerns. They tried many times to get hold of the owner and said he was avoiding the, and asked me for his contact info. Long story short he raised there eye brows by trying to avoid them. His fault not mine. When they finally did the walk through they gave him time to make the repairs. He never did. In fact it got worse. That is why it was shut down. ( So I am told I can't confirm this)
So I only called the City to get the permit. By Him avoiding them is what got them suspicious. So that is the full story. So blame him for lying to people were the money was really going and not talking to the city. They were willing to work with him but he kept ignoring them. and I do have the Email from the City asking for his info as they are not getting any replies from him. So give it a rest. He should just sell it and let someone who can afford it take over and make it to the great building it once was. I love old buildings and cause of people like him more & more are becoming ruins

A little heads-up for ya.

Petty bickering between rival para-TV emulating factions was comical 4 years ago...

Now it's just sad.

Jefffffa said...

omg the first person didn't use a single period in that amazingly run-on sentence lol!!!!! who cares if the city was called, the point is there is NO MONEY going into the mansion and he's pocketing every dime and isn't even living there. Fools are the ones who are crying about every other point... duh
