We can consider this to be a historical haunting, or a haunting that can be confirmed by known facts about the location and the events that transpired there in the past. No one really knows how or why hauntings and ghost sightings occur. It is also theorized that it may only take one person in a select group to see this event replayed. This agent then acts as a transmitter for the others in the group causing them to experience the event as well. This theory can also explain why ghosts in a haunting seem to be oblivious to those around them and why they can walk through walls that may not have been present when the original event took place.
People seem to have different reactions to hauntings as well.
Many believe that a person must have a heightened awareness or posses emotional states that are more receptive. This would explain why true psychics are able to pick up on hauntings more so than others. Although, it has also been theorized that if a person is exposed to a series of hauntings or haunted locations, that person may be more susceptible to experience them in more detail in the future, much like learned behavior. This may be a person to person interview or by completing one of our questionnaires. Next, we will research the property and it's prior occupants if possible.
