Subj: [TheParanormalGhostSociety] My Investigation Of The Ormsby County Poor Farm


After years of planning my paranormal group is finally living the dream. Like most paranormal hotspots we do in the next few years these locations exist within the Sierra Nevada's. I owe the general public an apology as I spent Jan. Feb. and a portion of March of 2011 making the proper preparations so that The Paranormal & Ghost Society could devote more time into the exploration of Nevada's and Californias strangest places.

So many new things were brought to our group such as new paranormal equipment, new members, equipment for our paracomedy radio show to enhance the show even more, Not only that but I have plans to do another 1000 locations in the next decade.

Even though we been around for a decade moving to a new place or relocating your paranormal group is a huge change. So far we have had at least 50 people interested in our forums and investigations. Most of the people are rather excited that we are now based just outside of Reno and Carson City.

For me life is different here everything moves a little slower its very laid back. Most people I meet snowboard.....toke up in the mountains.......and everyone is rather friendly. I adopted a new dog who also will be on some of my cryptozoological investigations.

So far all I have done the last past month is explore offroading to various locations....touring ghost towns.....finding abandoned eerie sites to explore. To even show my commitment towards my group we have purchased a 4x4 truck so that we could get back into some of the harder to reach places. We even rescued a new dog his name is "Rascal" he is being trained to be a member of our team.

Many changes were taking place for me not to mention that after 4 years I finally was able to retrieve my gear and things out of storage. Now I am at a relaxation point I can enjoy the snow capped mountains around me while bbqing on the grill. Friends can come over plan paranormal trips with me right here in our new studio.

I held two meet ups within one week and people actually came on out to hear what I had to say. Some even signed up under our team to help with some camp outs and explorations. Daily sends are now being once again sent out as my computer was down for the past year hence the lack of sends and updates. But to remedy the situation I now have a new computer system designed to handle massive amounts of sends.....and to finally update our site regularly like years ago.

So many good things are happening for us so I decided to choose two locations that I been checking into the last few weeks. Both locations have some rather interesting history not to mention they would serve off something to build upon as it would be not only our first investigation in a couple months but the first series of investigations in the area.

For those reading this I do not live to far from Virginia City one of the most in tact ghost towns in the country. Not only in tact but it still has that 1800's charm to it as well. Prior to the investigation we met at Jack n The Box. I must say they have some bomb ass Oreo cookie milk shakes. Some folks showed up their was a few who just didn't period.

I live in an area that the weather changes daily yesterday it was 70 degrees two days prior to that it was blizzarding all night long. Being up in the mountains can deter your explorations at anytime. Roads are closed.....their are avalanche areas....hell not to far from me this one town had over 5 feet of snow. I didn't know what to expect but I did know that it was windy and the temperature did drop down to freezing Saturday March 26th of 20111.

We would visit two locations the forgotten cemetery called Empire and the grounds of the old Ormsby County Poor Farm. They were good picks since I wanted to choose beginner courses for our new team members. Although do not get me wrong in less then two weeks were visiting a massive abandoned factory so things are and will be taking off.

I can tell you as much as I know right now and that is were going to be visiting locations like Yosemite, Bodie, San Fran, Redwoods, Virginia City just to name a few places we plan on exploring. With all the new upgrades we made to our paranormal group I expect to do very well the next few years with uncovering mysteries, legends and the strange.

After our meet Saturday evening I would take the road and we would head on off to Empire Cemetery. This is a historic cemetery on a hill overlooking Carson City. I chose it for our first investigation as this cemetery is a true symbol of culture and history in relation to the area. The cemetery was found on accident when I went for a jaunt along the Carson River which can be seen from the cemetery itself and so I give to you our first investigation in our new relocated area EMPIRE CEMETERY!

Empire Cemetery

I parked the truck up the dirt road which was almost steep enough to tip us. The cemetery sits overgrown on a hill. During the day you can see mountains on every side of you. Its a very scenic place overlooking the river and many trees.

The cemetery had been forgotten but it also had many of the founding fathers of Carson City and Empire here. Most of the graves we found dated back to the mid 1800's.

I was excited as we just ordered new gear since were in a new location and bringing a whole new journey. Tammy took EMF measurements and it spiked about 4 times. Two of the times it spiked was when out loud we read a name on a grave.

I found it odd to get EMF here their are no power lines near by its just a cemetery overgrown on a hill. Many of the graves were weathered some were crumbling. Their were allot of babies buried here and children.

I had gotten the impression that most of the open areas had more graves but perhaps they were unmarked burials. I did not take temp readouts as the wind was blowing hard core. I had to take my EVPs behind one the graves.

Most of the graves here at least the more wealthier interments had wrought iron fencing around their stones. While some had no stone and just wrought iron around a rectangle of soil. I did see two newer graves but most of the fake flowers were falling apart.

The cemetery is fenced off their isn't even an entrance gate into the place or even a sign. I enjoyed investigating here because at night you can view all of Carson City below while photographing ghost. It was memorable.

I did happen to hear movement and thought I seen a shadow running from my view. I feel and still feel that this place may be a major haunted cemetery in the region. Everyone had split up and looked around. We did not stay here no more then a half hour as it was bone chilling cold. One of the downfalls of moving out of Vegas or FL is that now we will deal with subzero freezing temperatures up in the high sierras.

The cemetery was dark no moon out either it was like being out on a crisp autumn night. We had to hike back to the truck although it wasn't far the hill down is pretty steep. I didn't feel to much here but I will say it was odd when Tammy read a little girls name and all of sudden the equipment spiked. We may return sometime later this year to set up a second series of test and readings. Empire Cemetery will always be special in the fact that this was our first investigation in our new location.

Surprisingly from what I learned also is not many locals know about this forgotten cemetery. Many of the graves are engraved beautiful like for example one of the stones has a mans face sculpted into it. Its very old and it seems like the activity here might be a little higher due to the fact that it doesn't get to many visitors.

We would head on up to our next location which was The Ormsby County Poor Farm or at least what was left of it.
