Brief History:
Honey Springs Battlefield is currently an Oklahoma Historical
Site in which the civil war battle occurred between the North and South for control over Indian territories between Fort Gibson
and Little Rock, Arkansas. By the time the battle was over one side reported
134 men killed while the other side reported well over 200 men killed. It is still believed today that a number of confederate
soldiers were buried in mass graves along the property but no one has been able to pinpoint the location.
AREA 1 Bivouac - Trail 1
Temp: 68 degrees
EMF: .2mg - Gaussmaster not depressed
Photos obtained: 0
EVPs: 0
Sound Anomaly: 1
No Video
Team members heard what sounded like artillery fire rounds. *Audio
data obtained / sound anomaly included*
At the same time, Teri witnessed a black shadows and Tina saw movement in same area. Upon investigating, we received no EMF readings or temperature fluctuations of interest. On the right side we did experience a small spike (.2mg) on the gauss master EMF meter. It was a very quick spike of the meter and did not last any duration. Gaussmaster meter button not depressed at the time.
Impressions: Teri was drawn to the
right side of this field and felt the energy was stronger there. As we found out later this was the closest to
the main battlefield...aka the front lines. There also seemed to be activity directly parallel to this area as
well. Teri had impression of a fire
in this area which Historian expert confirmed a fire broke out there just 2 years ago. Another impression consisted of an ambush on a tent that was very short lived.
Area 2 Main Battlefield - Trail 2
Temp: 70 degrees
EMF: 0
Photos Obtained: 1
EVP's Obtained: 1
No Video
Team members started by walking
the trail to take temperature and EMF meters. No significant readings were obtained. The area felt colder but the temperature readings were actually warmer than in the
bivouac area. Team members moved into both the North and South sides of
the battlefield. Some possible positive photos were obtained. No significant
EMF readings were obtained. Team members witnessed shadows and heard some unexplainable
noises that were not captured on analog recorders. We did capture one Class C EVP *included below*
of a whispering man's voice. We cannot make out what he is saying.
Impressions: Teri felt a sharp pain
in lower left side of back (stabbing feeling). Also feelings of heaviness experienced
while walking on trail and especially on the North side of the battlefield. Another impression obtained was that of soldiers
who allowed themselves to be killed due to no desire to fight any longer. Teri was drawn to the far end of the battlefield were a fence and private residence
now sits. Unable to determine the significance of this area.
AREA 3 Primitive Trail / Texas Road &
Sisney House - Trail 3
Temp: 64 degrees
EMF: .5 to 1.5mg
Photos obtained: 2
EVP's: 0
No Video
This part of the investigation
both NEO and PITT teams joined together and did a walk through of the trail located back to battlegrounds. Upon entering the first area of the trail a few moments into our walk NEO team members experienced readings
on their EMF meter, PITT gauss master did not pick up any significant readings. Further
up the trail, NEO again obtained EMF changes and positive photos obtained. *Positive Photo Data posted*
A 4 degree temperature fluctuation was experienced on a night with very little wind. Members also experienced what sounded
like strong 'wind' in the microphones of their analog recorders. As stated previously, there was very little wind on
this night yet some tapes were ruined and useless due to this noise. Tulsa forecast said winds were out of the east
at 10mph, but all can attest there was very little wind this night...at all. Correlating data in this location rendered
it most active this night. No other data to report at this time.
Synopsis:
Members believed this site to contain a lot of residual energy and members from both teams reported hearing artillery
fire, which supports this theory. Both teams reported sightings of shadows which were located in the same
area. However, during the sweep of the 3rd Trail (Texas Road / Sisney House) there seemed to be much more
than residual energy present. It was this area in which the trio-orb anomaly
was captured. Its not only interesting that this orb captured on film is in motion
but also one that boasts 3 different color spectrums along with it and accompanied significant changes in the EMF fields at
the same time.
Both psychics on either team picked up the unlikely impressions of woman and children while separated and at different
times in the evenings. However, impressions were received in the same areas. The
PSI impressions were not shared between the two psychics and therefore were not fed off of each other but instead received
separately. Other PSI correlation includes members of both teams experiencing physical
pain and ailments at separate times of the investigation but again located in the same area. Teams did not report
this to eachother until weeks after the investigation. No prior history or knowledge was given to psychics.
We are very thankful to NeoghOst for the invite and hosting of the first ever P.R.O.O.F. investigation. We are also very thankful for historical society connected to Honey Springs that is Howard McKinnis and
Ralph Jones. There were the most gracious hosts and we were honored to be a part of it. Thanks! We had a great time!
