The video below shows a light anomaly captured during a break in the investigation. The homeowner went to the second floor to feed a cat that was being kept in a bedroom. Just as she enters the room you see a strange anomaly coming from the doorway.

The History: This Victorian home in northern Missouri was built in 1843 and owned by the Herring family for nearly 104 years. After the death of the last Herring family owner the home changed hands several times before being purchased by the current owners.
The Claims: Alleged paranormal activity includes the claim by a previous owner that he saw the full body apparition of a woman standing at the top of the stairs. The current owners have heard voices when they have been on the staircase and smelled ‘grandmotherly’ type perfume at the bottom of the stairs. Our Findings: We investigated this home in March, 2017. The daytime temperature was 57° falling to 46° after dark. Winds were from the north at 6mph, there was 100% humidity with 0.37” precipitation. There were dogs and cattle next door which were heard throughout the investigation. Trains also occasionally passed nearby. At one point voices were heard by investigators in the house which were found to be coming from the neighbor’s home. This could account for the voices the homeowners sometimes hear when they are on the staircase. During our investigation we spent time in every room. However – just as the owners claimed, the activity we encountered did seem to be centered around the staircase. While we did not have any personal experiences during the investigation, and the home was very quiet – no settling, floorboards creaking, windows rattling, etc. – we did capture several EVPs. Two light anomalies were also captured on video. Is this home in Northern Missouri haunted? We believe this family is sharing their home with someone or something we can't see. This is a private home. The owners have given permission for us to share their story. We ask that you respect their privacy. |
