Hiatus
Our team has had some personal and family issues arise this year, and made the decision to take a break from investigating for a while. Things have recently started to slow down, however, so we're open to scheduling and getting back into the swing of helping people. Feel free to contact us!

Owner and several employees have experienced things. Packages of buns being thrown off shelves and landing in the middle of the floor, can of cooking spray also thrown and ending up in the middle of the floor; sounds of the back door being opened in the middle of the night with only the owner in the building; occasional voices being heard by different employees...
The majority of the building is under construction and being renovated at the time of investigation. The building consisted of the take-out/register area (the only area actually open right now), kitchen, lobby/dining area, a side room that's being used as an office right now.. along with other smaller rooms, storage closets, bathrooms, etc. on the main floor. Upstairs consisted of several rooms/apartments and the loft area (also under construction and which we did investigate). Downstairs was a big, open basement, which spanned the whole building, front to back. All in all, huge space with a lot of square footage to cover!
We had 4 cameras recording.. IR cam 1: in the kitchen covering the area where objects fly off shelves and the front waiting area, IR cam 2: in the lobby/dining area spanning the whole room, which is under construction, IR cam 3: in the old, original basement, IR cam 4: in the upstairs original loft, which is also under construction and being redone.
We had 4 voice recorders, one in the lobby/dining area, one in the upstairs loft, one in the basement, and the 4th was carried around by teams as they investigated. We also had 2 EMF meters, a digital thermometer, and digital cameras.. along with our other usual equipment.
We got to the business around 10:30 pm. We talked with the owner as he showed us around the restaurant area, upstairs and downstairs.. and told us about the claims and history/stories he's been told. After the full walk-through, we started to set up equipment and get ready. We set "central base" outside behind the buildings. Once we had the cameras set up and running.. we took photos, temp. and EMF readings. Then we went lights out, even though a couple of lights had to be left on for security reasons. We took about 30 minutes of silent treatment before the first team of 3 went inside for their session..
