This sounds real interesting. Did you guys experience anything whilst you were conducting research?
Also was the animal on all fours or upright?
Sorry, I missed this question the first time around.
The animal has been seen both on all fours and upright. The most interesting sighting came from the father: Between four and five am on a friday, his dog (who is inside the house) is going crazy barking and tearing around the house. The father goes downstairs, gun in hand because he thought someone was trying to break into the house. He finds nothing inside, steps out into the back yard and sees what he thought was a wolf at the edge of the property. The animal rises up on it's hind legs and stands completly upright next to a large tree. The father says he didn't even think about shooting. He just stood there. The dog incidentally retreated into the house. After a moment the animal went back to all fours and took off. The father felt very shaken up for a couple of days afterwards.
As for personal experiences, yes we had a few. The whole place has a very nervous energy about it. It makes one feel as if something is going to happen at any moment. I've been in tons of haunted locations and this is like nothing I have felt before. One of our team up and walked out of the house into the back yard during the investigation. He looked like he was in a trance and when I touched him he seemed to snap out of it. He said that he just "felt the need to walk in that direction" but he didn't know why or where he was going.
EMF readings were off the scale around both the front and back doors. There's not any wiring to speak of and nothing in evidence that would cause this kind of reading. The readings were also extremly high in the back yard around where the animal has been spotted.
Voices were heard in parts of the house by various team members. We're still going through evps so I don't know if we caught anything yet.
