NEWS FROM THE ALLEN HOUSE
Published by News Release July 31st, 2008 in Other stuff.REGIONAL CHAPTER OF T.A.P.S. DOES PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION
The website bestandworst.com has The Allen House listed as “The Most Haunted House in America,” and there may be some validity to that claim in the wake of a paranormal investigation conducted by a regional chapter of T.A.P.S., the paranormal investigative group featured on Sci Fi channel’s show “Ghost Hunters.”After rejecting the requests of various paranormal investigators in the past, the owners of the Allen House agreed to allow the scientific investigation using digital video and audio equipment, electromagnetic field meters, digital thermometers and thermal-imaging cameras. The investigators had many “personal experiences,” but the truly compelling evidence of paranormal activity came in the form of approximately 40 Electronic Voice Phenomena (EVPs). According to the investigators from Louisiana Spirits at their July 23 reveal of their findings, the large majority of investigations capture no scientific evidence. In the minority of investigations that do record evidence, the number of EVPs captured is usually one or two. To capture over 40 is remarkable.

I watch Ghost Hunters all the time. I have never been in the Allen House but have heard some stories and I have told my husband several times that I thought Ghost Hunters should come to the Allen House to investigate. I hope they show it on Scifi or I hope that maybe The men of Ghost hunters show, Jay and Grant, will come here next and do an investigation.
I am one of the investigators who attended the investigation. We are Louisiana Spirits, a TAPS family member. You can check out our website or the Taps Family member website and that will explain the “family member” status further. As far as the investigation of The Allen House, it was very interesting indeed!! We did capture some great audio clips, and had quite a few personal experiences. You can read further on the investigation at http://www.laspirits.com, as well as listen to a few of the clips. We greatly appreciate the Spencers, as well as whoever else may be there, for allowing us into their home. It was quite a treat!
