Tonight again proved to be one of are more adventurous interesting investigations. I would like to thank Mark and Jason for helping me out I could not have gotten this done without them. We started off by taking a few outside shots just before dusk it was raining hard so we got soaked and then we went to Mc Donald's for coffee which was nice so we could sit discuss the place a little like where we felt vibes how the place looked. By looking at this place it looks like a church and rather its a mix of things a bingo hall, church and school as well so a pretty good solid 3 floors of exploring. The only disappointment tonight is we could not get into the bingo hall but we were able to see in the windows everything still was remaining. As we arrived back at the parish center a rusted gate was only standing in the way we could not squeeze in and after getting mad at it for being stuck I went nuts and it sort of flew open not bad for a ill man I say but I never say no to some good ghost busting:) Before entering of course a drug dealer approached me and I told her I am a nuts killer who just came from the asylum and she sort of backed farther away that was the last we seen of her walking the streets.  Of course there is truth to that I am nuts for going to the asylum 3 times in the last year lol. We entered I noticed the hallway was very warm it did not feel uncomfortable as we walked up the stairs you could see how old the wood work was. We walked in a few class rooms and into one room which made me feel discomfort simply because when all of us stood still something was walking back and forth on the other side of the wall. We went over to check it out and it stopped although then it started up 2 feet in front of us granted the wall and flooring were creaking but when not moving it moved so it gave it away to where something probably was standing. We then moved on and found a classroom with almost everything remaining such as books, desk, chairs this room bothered me a little. When all of us were talking an standing still something was running in this room i did not see it but I heard it moving pretty fast and it was about 5 feet away shuffling, walking and a bang again some activity in another classroom. As we went back out into the hallway Mark said he seen a shadow on the move at the end of the hallway although I did not see it I felt watched more then usual on investigations as if something was standing in the bathroom peering at us. We then went up to the 3rd floor which is a pretty view there was no way to get into the 2 towers however the 3rd floor was covered amazingly with a lot of bird droppings piles that were 6 inches deep so we know this place has been abandoned for years. The 3rd floor I felt at ease although most rooms were empty here I felt something weak in the front room this was the room that bothered me often when driving by it just felt different. I did notice the 3rd floor had a few cold spots more then the 2nd floor and some seemed to be moving quickly I did account for some open windows however some of the closed or boarded up 3rd floor classrooms were cold then warm in some areas by this time my batteries were drained completely. We made our way to the end of the hall and down some stairs into the basement area came to a room with a furnace very large old one actually probably where coal was used at one time to heat this old place. We then went into the kitchen and finally into the main area where there was a alter and stage. This room had 2 pianos one was broke the other I played yes you heard me I played on the ship and couldn't resist playing at this parish for the deceased:) As soon as I started to play there was a cold air that seemed to rush past me and as Mark said he felt a lot of cold near him as I was playing the piano. Basically I wanted to liven things up and it seemed to work. The downstairs had A LOT of cold spot activity it was warm to me accept a few areas were ice cold and if you stuck your hand out you could actually feel a cold spot on the move. We then explored a few rooms I did read a passage out of the bible to also try and develop a relationship with the ghost that haunt this place. We made our way back to our starting point then and decided to do a 2nd walk through taking photos not much occurred the 2nd time going through although there was loud banging on the door a floor below and at the same time Id like to think it was someone trying to get in it sort of sounded like something trying to get out pushing on the handle of the door this went on for about 2 minutes then went dead and stopped.. We decided to do a 3rd and final walkthrough Mark brought his video camera so basically what we were going to do was film and I was going to talk sort of give a tour of the place and hopefully he will find something on film as well or live camera. We walked down the lucky 2nd floor did some filming and as all our backs turned to go to the 3rd floor about 15 feet behind us the sound of a coin dropped hit the floor twice. I cannot say it was a coin but if you ever dropped change this is how it sounded it was loud it was dead center of the hall way and it was a metal sound hitting the floor. We turned around quickly and I did hear voices inside there was no humans in this place but us they almost sounded like children whispering and talking away. We then made our way to the 3rd floor back down to the basement area and of course outside as we made our way again we felt cold spots and heard a few unexplained noises. As we were outside I took a few photos of the sign. We all took many photos tonight got some live video and were able to spend a few hours inside. Based one a few digital photos I looked at I got a pretty evil looking face on the ground, an orb in motion and some very weird anomaly on the door outside which is not there in the 1st picture. Also a lot of orbs some are very large interesting none the less. All in all the place seems very active, haunted and probably worth going back to again sometime.  peace
