Laura Casey's Page
On the evening of October 4, 2008, Greenville Paranormal Research teamed up with their good friends Carl Johnson and Laura Casey of New England Anomalies Research to investigate the ruins of the Ram Tail Factory and the stretch of the Ponagansett River where the ghosts of Peleg Walker and Betsey Grayson haunt. On the way out of the forest, Laura asked Andrew if she could write an article for G.P.R.'s web site. He thought that would be a great idea, not even knowing what she planned to write. Sadly, we shall never know what she had in mind for her article. Forty eight hours latter, Laura died in her sleep. We all miss her very much. In honor of her memory, we offer this page as a place for anyone to post a paranormal article, story, photograph or video. E-mail your material to greenvillepr@yahoo.com
Laura Casey: "The E. V. P. Magnet"
Anyone who teamed up with Laura Casey on an investigation would learn that the lady was an E.V.P. magnet. She seemed to have a knack at bringing out the spirits. If there was activity in a home or place, she would get a comment! Here are some E.V.P.s she sent to G.P.R. from a home N.E.A.R. was investigating.
"Bitch, was her name."
"Make a video."
"(inaudible...) Get another tattoo."
"You guys are right on."
An E. V. P. Recorded At Laura Casey's Grave
Andrew Lake paid a visit to Laura Casey's grave on the second anniversary of her passing. Actually, it was on the day after, the weather was heavy rain on the exact day. Not knowing the precise spot where her new marker had been place, Andrew called out to Laura for help. Listen with headphones and you should be able to hear a breathy, "Yes." There also seems to be another word after, "Yes." Was this Laura? We like to think so.
Black Mass In Burillville, Rhode Island
This photo was sent to G.P.R. by Carl Johnson. After giving a talk at a local library, Carl had a man named John tell him about something freaky that he caught with a trail camera mounted to a tree in the woods near his house. John wanted to catch shots of the wild animals in the area and he did. But he also caught two shots (within the same minute) of this black mass. A shot taken a little earlier shows nothing (not even wind moving the foliage) and a shot taken five minutes after the two black mass pictures shows nothing as well. These cameras need movement to be activated, so the shots with nothing are strange too. What made John feel a little spooked is the fact that there is an historic cemetery very near to this spot in the woods. Thanks again to John and Carl for this strange photo and story!

Orbs Seen And Photographed Near Mercy Brown's Grave In Exeter, R.I.
These pictures were sent to us by a guy named Gary. He and his friends decided to take a legend trip to the Chestnut Hill Baptist Church one night in October, 2009, to visit the "vampire's grave". As they entered the graveyard, they saw what they first thought were little electric lights glowing on the ground in front of some of the headstones. As they approached, the lights faded away. Soon after, they noticed the lights had reappeared, but this time they were further away in the night air. Gary began to take shots in an attempt to capture what the five of them could see. The larger, transparent orbs could be dismissed as moisture or dust, but the little blue lights were seen by everyone who was there. The large pink orb is very interesting. For many years people have talked about seeing phantom blue lights in the cemetery. Gary and his friends had never heard that fact. A big thanks to Gary and his friends for these fascinating pictures and story!

A Strange Tale From Anawan Rock
This account comes from a young man named Chris R., who had something very disturbing happen to him after visiting Anawan Rock in Rehoboth, MA. It was sent to G.P.R. by a student from Emerson College named Jordan. Andrew Lake had helped Jordan and two of her classmates with their short film on strange tales from the Bridgewater Triangle. This is an excerpt from that film. Remember: leave only footprints and take only photographs when visiting sites in nature. Especially when they're haunted!
Spirit Activity At Anawan Rock?
These pictures were submitted by Kim and Philip Garfagna of Wareham, MA. They visited Anawan Rock on the anniversary of Anawan's surrender to Benjamin Church. Kim asked her husband to take some shots of her because she felt "someone" standing behind her. The shots taken right after this picture show nothing strange.
These two pictures (Above and Below), taken in succession, caught a very strange vapor. They were the only two pictures taken that night which show this ecto-like anomaly. A very big thank you to Kim and Philip for sharing these pictures on Laura Casey's page.
Ghost Standing By An Old House?
 |  |
This photo was sent in by Katie from Acushnet, MA. It was taken by her mother who likes to check out old buildings and photograph them before they are gone for ever. Later, the two of them noticed what looks like a heavy set man, wearing a cap, standing by the side of the old house.
Ectoplasm On Vacation In Costa Rica?
"This is the picture that was taken about 20 seconds before the other picture of my friend Susan. No one was smoking. This was in a little village in Costa Rica on the west coast. At our age, we are losing people close to us every day. I just had a feeling that there was something around us even though I saw nothing until I saw the film. It was only around Susan and not me."

A Classic Video Clip From Matt Moniz
For those of you who have never seen this clip, it is from Matt Moniz of Spooky Southcoast Radio, 30 Odd Minutes, as well as many other paranormal projects. It was shot by Matt's best friend, Joe, at the Waverly Hills Sanitarium. Joe is a former Army tank instructor and is very familiar with night vision equipment. They had the entire building to themselves. The two of them were in a hallway (on the third floor) where other investigators in the past have witnessed figures moving about. Matt had just checked out all the rooms behind him and found no one. As he was walking towards Joe, "someone", leaned out from one of the rooms he had just checked and then leaned right back in. No earthly soul could be found. Matt has posted this video here in memory of Laura.
A Late Friend Makes It to The Party?
This story and photo was sent by a good friend of Greenville Paranormal Research, Lisa Gourleyx. Thanks so much Lisa and to all your friends. We are so sorry for your loss.
"I had an interesting experience this past week.... you know how my friend Eddie passed, we had a benefit show for his headstone on Saturday night, and this past Tuesday, his friends from the garage (they all were part of a group of guys who build hot rods + bikes etc) - two of the guys in the garage and their girlfriends had a birthday party in a small bar in Providence around dusk. We were talking about how sad it was etc, and right after we were talking about him, I took this photo - it was the only photo all night that had this - no one was smoking inside - its such a small room you would've seen anyone smoking..... the only door is that one door in the photo - people go out there to smoke - there were no "smoke trails" in any of the other photos - I took over 1300."
