Investigations

Our investigations of SE Studios all began in August of 2011, though there had been evidence of paranormal activity before that. Once night while Shirl Spencer and I were at the studio doing some work, we heard the front door slam! Omg, it was fricken crazy! It startled both of us and I ran to the door, but no one was there and both of the security locks were bolted shut. This prompted an immediate investigation of the premises and we were blown away by what we found..... What we found would revolutionize the paranormal sciences forever!


AUGUST 7th & 8th, 2011

The first night of our investigation, we slept out in the live room of the studio. It was kind of like camping, but the ghosties made it interesting by throwing in their antics and such! We were pretty much unaware at this point, of the magnitude of spiritual activity that there was at the studio. Being that SE Studios is a fully-functional recording studio that has clients coming in and out everyday, it isn't exactly conducive to business, having a ghost hunting session in the middle of the day, plus things are always way creepier at night than in the daytime.


THE GUITAR STRUM: The first night that we did our investigation, we setup a static night-vision camera pointed towards the bed that we were sleeping on. We didn't hear it at the time, but we later heard this EVP on the recording. It is guitarist James Rosas' guitar. We knew that because we went around the entire studio and played every single one until we found the one that was in that tuning and it was the only one. What was strange was that the guitar was located in another room in the building, but it sounds like it is right next to the camera. That wasn't the only time that we would hear that specific guitar strum. It happened several times throughout our investigation.


THE CHILD'S COUGH: In addition to the guitar strum EVP, we also caught what appears to be a child coughing. Once again, at the time we heard nothing, but we did feel a presence of some sort. It happens at 0:03 into the video. That night was very powerful in our time together, almost spiritual. Our psychic premonitions, if we even have any would say that there were definitely children there with us at the time. There were multiple deaths in the family in recent years and some of them were children, so we were wondering if maybe there was a connection.


 

OUR FINDINGS: The evidence from our first look at SE Studios pointed to the fact that there possibly could be paranormal activity going on there. The entire area of Grass Valley and Nevada City has a rich history of spirits and ghost tales from the Holbrooke Hotel to the Stone House and many places that are even uncharted. We could tell a lot from personal stories, but there is nothing like going to the library and looking up some information on the location and people in the area that might fit the description of our ghosts. As silly as that may sound, that was indeed our goal.... We had to get to the bottom of what was buried under the concrete.

 

Our investigation picked back up again on August 27th and lasted until August 31st, 2011. It didn't seem like we had missed a beat, because we had been staying at the studio at night, to oversee the operations and in that time, we had so many personal experiences and crazy things that happened to us while we were there! Some of which were caught on videotape and others on the digital recorders and some on vector scope, so we will share those as well.


AUGUST 27th thru 31st, 2011

We knew going into this phase of the investigation, that it was going to be a week-long event and there wouldn't be a chance to really even stop and review and of the evidence. Shirl and I were committed to do it, so we set up all of the equipment and systematically worked the ghost over, until we got the information that we wanted out of them. Remember that spirits often lie, so information can be sketchy if you don't know the right questions to ask. Fortunately, Shirl and I knew exactly what to ask those pesky ghosts.


MAKE ME DO IT!: One night, early on in our investigation, we setup a plastic ball in the center of the room and asked and then commanded the spirits to move the ball and at 0:43 there is the sound of the guitar strum and in the sound of the strum, you can hear a voice say, "Why don't you make me?". We were really surprised to find this evidence, long after we originally recorded it. The guitar belonging to James Rosas seemed to be the only one used for this, but there was another guitar in the studio and it was an Ibanez that belonged to Mark Wyatt, the guitarist from StrangeEye band that killed himself. We were wondering if maybe Mark's spirit is hanging around the studio, which is now a portal.

 


THE GHOSTIES ROCK: It has often been believed that various spirits act as a muse, to inspire one to write music or create art of some form. We believe there to be muse spirits at SE Studios and various other spirits, entities, energies and other life forms. In our investigations, we focused on specific things about who these beings might be and why they might be there, but we never imagined that we would catch the things we did on our other taping of jams and band rehearsals, like this one where at the end of the video, a voice says, Does somebody need a ghost?" and we never caught that the first time we watched the clip.


I have often times heard of people having "visions" and though I understood the concept of having a vision, I myself had never had an actual vision at this point in my life. But one night, while Shirl and I were doing our investigations in the main room of the studio, also known as the "live room" and as we were laying there on the mattress that we had put down, I began to see things in my mind, like pictures only it was different... It seemed that they had meaning and purpose somehow.

I remember seeing a round room with seven (7) escape pods and an hourglass on the middle of a stone table. In my vision, I saw that the hourglass had been broken and pieces of glass were all over the table, as were white crystals from inside of the hourglass. In my vision, I could see another room that was covered by a glass dome and Shirl's children Jesse, Christian and Jeremy we all behind the glass and though they were talking, we couldn't hear a word. There was someone else there with them. A little girl with blonde curly hair, wearing a white dress with pink flowers and little blue birds and she was holding a teddy bear in her left hand.

I told Shirl that we needed to break the glass bubble and to get the acoustic guitar and begin to worship God, so she did just that and as she began to worship, I saw the glass begin to crack and a moment later, there was nothing left but broken glass on the ground and her kids were gone, but the little girl was still there. I narrated my vision to Shirl as it was happening, so she knew exactly what was happening. After that, the vision ended and I came back to reality.

After my vision was over, I laid there with Shirl and went into great detail about what I had seen and described the room in greater detail. In my vision, it seemed that there were only seven escape pods and they were all gone and whoever was left in that room had been left behind after waiting a great deal of time and they were so furious when they saw that the escape pods were gone, that they broke the hourglass that was on the table and the pieces of glass and crystalline sands were spread across the table.

As I recounted my vision piece by piece, I looked to my left and on the stairs, I could see the same little girl sitting there about half way up. It wasn't a mist or apparition, but more of a seeing into the spirit. I described the little girl to Shirl in great detail, down to every little thing that you could imagine.

Eventually, I wrote about the room from my vision, with the escape pods in a song from my Nowhere CD entitled "The Warning". If you are at all interested in hearing what it sounds like to take something that you saw in a vision and turn it into a musical reality, then click here to listen to The Warning now!

 

GHOST HUNTING PORCH MONKEY STYLE: While sitting on the front porch of SE Studios, we were both attacked by some spirit entity and both of us immediately started praying for one another. In the summer time it is common to sit out in front of the studio in the evening and enjoy an ice cold beverage, but that night the only thing getting served up were cans of Whoop Ass!!! We are on the hunt for a ghostie and after kicking a crap load of them out of the studio, we figured it was time to catch them in their natural environment, which is NOT IN THE STUDIO WREAKING HAVOC! Although that does have it's benefits to ghost hunters wanting to come to SE Studios, but trust me... if we wanted to, we could fill this place with ghosts in about 2-seconds! They are waiting outside, DYING to come in.. literally! You have no idea what we have going on here in Grass Valley. Even the most avid ghost hunting teams make their way to the Gold Country to check out SE Studios and you should as well!

 


DRUNK PILOTS & 3-SHADOWS: Part of our investigation led us outside the studio, to poke around the area a little bit and see what we uncover and one night while we were out investigating, a drunk pilot came sputtering in and almost crashed at the Nevada County Airpark. Shirl and I couldn't believe it, but what was more spooky... On the way back from seeing if the pilot was going to crash, we caught 3-shadows of us, when there should have only been 2! It was really freaky until we figured it all out and no, it wasn't the cameraman, because we were filming alone that night.


GHOST GIRL: I was really surprised several days later when our friends who had been camping in the desert, took this pic on their cell phone and sent it to us. To see the exact same girl that I had seen before in my vision, was just mind blowing to me! I knew that my vision was real and that I was truly seeing into the spirit for the first time in my life and that was exciting for me! A name came to me later and that was Elizabeth Werner. I believe that to be her actual name, but my research hasn't led me to her yet, but I know that in time I will find that little ghost girl and I will finally know who she is and what she is doing at SE Studios. One thing I do is that she is a victim of a tragedy involving a man named John Harper.


 

OUR FINDINGS: The evidence from our second look at SE Studios pointed to the fact that there was definitely paranormal activity going on and on a grander scale than we had originally anticipated. The EVP's that were able to retrieve after a week-long investigation, proved to by more overwhelming that we that could have ever imagined! We were finding that as we pinpointed specific questions in our EVP sessions, that we got specific answers and though when we first started our investigation, we really didn't know exactly how to list to these EVP's and what to look for. That all changed as we turned the mics up all the way in the recording and then turned our voices way down during playback, to allow that overall volume to be louder and by doing that, we were able to unlock several mysteries about EVP's in general.

Our next investigation started on September 9th and lasted until September 10th, 2011 and focused more on getting specific information out of the ghosties. We were working on getting information like their names and how many of them there were in the studio at the time. Not to be overly metaphysically dramatic, but it would appear that SE Studios was actually some kind of portal or gateway to another dimension. Our research thus far had helped us develop new technologies related to making contact with the astral plane.


SEPTEMBER 9th & 10th, 2011

By now, we were well accustomed to hearing the ghosties as anytime of the day or night and doing just about everything imaginable, from speaking on the microphone while people were recording, to even strumming the guitar while we went about our daily business. Though poltergeist activity was not present, still the spirits on the astral plane pleaded their case for help and to help us with SE Studios, to help it grow and get the word out to the people who could use it the most. Who had ever thought of using a team of talented ghosts to market a recording studio's services? In time, things would grow for SE Studios and business would begin to flood the studio as the same spirits that once hassled the team out of shear boredom, were put to work, speaking the words "SE Studios" into the ears of those needing our services, but not knowing we even existed. Now feeling the fulfillment from completing a project and helping people in this physical realm, we began to implore these same spirits, to work at SE Studios, to make it like a Ghost Theme Park, the first of it's kind ever! Though things did not operate smoothly at first, eventually the willing spirits followed suit and did what we asked them to. They now work for us at SE Studios!


BURNING WOOD: One night while we were undergoing phosphorus reflection tests, using an old tv set laying on the floor, we began to smell burning wood. It so was so distinct and so pinpointed and obviously an attack on Shirl, knowing about the fire in the past. We searched the entire studio, inside and out and there was no smoke and no fire, just the smell of a major blaze. Shirl was a little freaked out, but she is a strong person and a great ghost hunter, so it was no problem...

PHOSPHORUS TESTS : We have often heard of people being able to catch a spirit's reflection in a surface covered in phosphorus. While we were undergoing our final phosphorus reflection tests, we caught some rather fun times at SE Studios and that is what you want to hear, "not that you were scared shitless and will NEVER come back!".

Our tests yielded results beyond our wildest dreams, but we can only show you the following video as we do not want to spoil future episodes of the SE Spirit Chasers TV show.

 

OUR FINDINGS: The evidence from our third investigation proved that not only had we made contact with spirits on the astral plane, but that someone the equipment in the studio was acting like a giant spirit radio antenna. We started researching more about "spirit radio" and we astonished to see that Tesla himself had designed a crystal radio in a mason jar, that would allow you to more easily capture the voices of disembodied spirits. After building our own spirit antenna, we decided to do the same thing, only larger and remotely located outside of the shielding of the metal building. It didn't take long to gather parts and build what would be the first of it's kind, SE Spirit Radio Antenna Array. Using the same concept from Tesla's experiment, we were able to reach even farther into the astral plane, now bringing perfect spirit reception to the entire SE building. Before SE moved to the current location, it was a generator and magneto repair facility and there were a lot of electrical signals being generated from that location, almost like a lighthouse for spirits. We believe that is how the building itself came to have paranormal activity.

NOTE: We found it necessary to take a break from ghost hunting for one month. It was very difficult to not go down and do EVP's or interrogate the ghosties, but we avoided the entire month of October, including the all famous Hallow's Eve (Halloween). We are really glad that we took a break, because it allowed us to gain clarity over the things that were happening at SE Studios.

 
 

Our next investigation was a two day investigation on November 14th & 15th, that included Alby running the camera and helping us chase ghosties and that is always a lot of fun! We were using our new software to decode important messages, that would help unravel a mystery that included some kind of demonic activity.


NOVEMBER 14th & 15th, 2011

There was much ado about SE at this point and it felt good to finally be breaking through some of the barriers involved in communicating with spirits and beings from dimensions unknown. There are also a lot of dangers involved in this whole thing too, as far as people bringing in spirits and people leaving with spirits. We had kicked a good majority of the bad spirits out, because they were annoying and had been actually scratching and bruising us. I was surprised that spirits could manifest like that, but I am living proof! We knew we were dealing with several spirits, but the most energetic of the bunch was a spirit named "Larry". We are sure that we will find out what his story is, with a little deeper investigation of SE Studios.


BASS KNOCKED OVER: This was an interesting night, as it was the first night that Alby went hunting with us! He ran the camera as we ran a thorough investigation of SE Studios. During the investigation, I ask the ghosts if they wanted to play the bass while I play the keyboard. Boy did we find out! Just when we least expected it, one of the ghosties knocked Brant's bass over! We were totally blown away. There was no doubt that something was there, but the actual manifestation of knocking something over was pretty impressive to me.


THE LEGEND OF THE SCARY STAIRS: Though it is of course a "made up" legend by Robbi Spencer, it is believed that since the construction at SE Studios, the ghostly activity has been at an all time high! There seems to be something or someone who sits at about the middle of the stairs and does not like people walking by. It is a well-known fact amongst ghost enthusiasts, that any type of building, construction or remodeling seems to anger the inhabitants and any dwelling space, at least spirits that may be there.

 

 

OUR FINDINGS: The evidence from our forth investigation led us to believe that paranormal activity was not only present at SE Studios, but "on tap" so to speak. I know that sounds like a scary thing, but it's not. So far, other than being bruised and scratched, we have not been affected by the spirits that reside at SE Studios. In a way it is kind of a blessing being able to communicate with people that you would never normally talk to.

Imagine if you will, being able to actually speak to your Uncle Willy using the SE Spirit Radio™. I'm not going to promise you that is going to happen, but you will never know until you actually come to SE Studios for yourself and sit in the Master Control Room and broadcast on the Spirit Radio and ask your questions and let us record the session for you and then mega-amplify the playback volume for you, so you so see if maybe Willy's talking on our frequency or if someone knows him or where he is at.

NOTE: This is not a scam and this is not a gimmick. If you don't believe me? Fine! Then come see it yourself, I don't mind one bit. Call me at 530.273.8110 24/7 and I will wake up out of bed and talk to you myself. This is not a joke, so don't even &#$%@ with me. Anybody calls in the middle of the night to F with Robster and I will sick some angry ghosts on your ass!!! hahahahahaha J/K Peeps. Would never misuse the power that has been given to any of us, including my amazing wife ShirlAnne!!!
