The haunted St. Augustine
Lighthouse is a very active place according to
numerous paranormal investigators, as well as Special Projects
Coordinator, Faith Albers. In fact, it is believed most
buildings and the grounds are quite haunted. So while in
Florida July 2008, I decided to climb the haunted lighthouse
tower in St. Augustine and see if I could make contact with
the resident ghosts utilizing a ghost box
device at about 7:15 PM.
I waited until the tower was
empty and the door closed behind me before running an eight
minute recording session up top. Most of the recording
was made
one
landing down
from the very top,
while a portion was recorded as I descended
to the next landing and then downward. My goal
was simply to receive some messages that I
could deem as intelligent communication. |

The St. Augustine Lighthouse staff tries
not to give names to ghosts, as there had been 73 lighthouse
keepers and their families during its long history.
Faith also told me that spirits of adults and children both
have been visibly witnessed and audio recorded via EVP
. During my session in
the tower, I did hear evidence of both children and adults.
As is typical with many of my ghost box recordings,
I also heard the spirits discussing me, trying to help
one another, and of course asking for my help. "Help"
messages are received because ghosts are truly lost spirits
who need assistance in moving on. Many ghosts are trapped here as earthbound
spirits, and
are unsure of how to get free (in my
opinion). |
