NOTES

For Anyone who saw the movie "The Shining" or perhaps read the book by Stephen King called "The Shining" will be all too familiar. Stephen King stayed in room 217 while writing the book. It is rumored to be one of the most haunted rooms.

Room 401 is also a site for ghostly activity as well as the entire 4th floor. As the story goes the 4th floor was once the servants quarters.Was there a housekeeper with two children who chose to stay?.To this day there are complaints of children running and playing down the halls of the 4th floor even when there are no children present. There are often accounts of people hearing children playing with a ball on that floor.When seen, people have witnessed a boy and girl. They are seldom seen apart. Apparently 75% of the Stanley have witnesses something paranormal.

Mark & I were honored when asked to speak on EVP at "The Stanley". Not only were we among such celebrities as "The Ghost Hunters" themselves but also Chris Fleming star of The Biography channel's Dead Famous, famed Paranormal Authors Janice Oberding and Leslie Rule.The Event was put on by Dave Schrader of www.darknessradio.com and congratulations to Dave and Partner Tim on their very successful conference!

As far as our investigation, I find it easier to investigate with less people, unfortunately this is nearly impossible at Conferences of any kind. ( Especially with evp.) We arrived on a Thurs. before most of the others had arrived. I was immediately drawn to the 4th floor near the stairwell. I felt immense activity for an otherwise quiet floor.

Another strange thing was as always when children are amongst the spirits we like to bring toys and such. this trip we bought two balls. as usual I stuff everything in my oversized purse. Well before I had the chance to offer the children the balls I realized they were gone-completely disappeared. Was it the children or my neglect? Mark & I are still not sure.

Thanks to Dave we were given access to room 401, where as seen on "Ghost-Hunters" The closet door seemed to open at will. This also being the room where Jason's glass shattered on the night stand.
