What would you say if you were asked to attend a meeting led by a paranormal investigator? That happened to me and of course, I said”yes!”
One of my favorite Jersey Shore Scene writers, Jack Grodeska interviewed and attended an investigation with Mike Mazza, who spoke at last night’s event. The results of Jacks ghost hunting experience were documented on this site back in October 2021: https://jerseyshorescene.com/thanks-for-the-nightmares-mike/
The event was held at The Shrewsbury Historical Society led by the D.A.R. These are ladies who have deep roots in our country and strive to keep bringing about honor to those who are serving and those who served. I was so impressed with all of them and will speak more of The Daughters of The American Revolution at another time.
Mike took the stage and first asked if anyone in attendance ever had a “Paranormal Experience.” Multiple hands went up and we heard from several women about their truly inexplicable encounters with the unknown.
I should mention that before Mike started his presentation, a radio came on by itself in the kitchen. DAR member JoAnn Slocum Mazzucca pointed it out to us, as apparently, this happens frequently. After Mike spoke, JoAnn, myself and Mike decided to go look at that radio.
I was expecting an antique radio, but no, it was an up-to-date version that also displays the time. Perched on a shelf in the kitchen, it looks to be just a normal room until you turn to the back and see the eyes of some very creepy dolls staring right at you!
Mike and JoAnn asked the dolls if any of them were responsible for the radio shenanigans, and they were very coy.
JoAnn suggested we move our “investigation” upstairs, where more creepy dolls resided as well as many artifacts from the past. Mike put his “flux” on a couch next to several dolls and asked if there was anyone with us, to please touch the flux. This device is used for simple Yes and No answers.
In his hand, he held a voice box that is able to detect sounds, words, shrieks, and you name it spoken from those on the other side. The flux did not go off, but boy were these guys vocal! JoAnn and Mike were able to ascertain with a few questions that a “Sam” was with us and answered “war” when asked if he served in the American Revolution.
JoAnn had a strong sense Sam was behind her the entire time and I ran my cellphone video in hopes of capturing him. We were all very cold, my hair was honestly standing up on my arms and I had goosebumps all over. This feeling did not leave me until I exited later for my car. I sent the video to Mike who is combing through it for what we missed during our investigation. We later learned that there are uniforms up in that attic from the Revolutionary War. Perhaps Sam was protecting his.
If you know me, you know I believe there is so much more to our world than what we can see. There is a “knowing” that we are not alone and an acceptance that there is so much we will never be able to understand. Sometimes, there is no logic. Like last night, I went as a guest to hear Mike Mazza. I never expected to be a part of an actual investigation or to actually speak with spirit. But I am grateful for the invitation and hope to have many more out-of-this-world experiences!
