Teackle Mansion does paranormal research
By Liz Holland

PRINCESS ANNE -- The volunteers who give Sunday afternoon tours at the
Teackle Mansion and are frequently asked if the Federal-era house is
haunted.
Now they can give a new answer.
Maybe.

On Friday night, a group of researchers armed with audio and video
recorders set out to find evidence of paranormal activity in the mansion
which has had numerous owners and tenants since it was built in 1802.
The mansion is now owned by the Somerset County Historical Society,
which operates it as a museum.
Although no one in the group has witnessed anything unusual, most have
heard of a ghost sighting several years ago.

At the time, a college student was allowed to stay in a bedroom in the
south wing while serving an internship at the mansion. He awoke one
night and saw an apparition of a woman in the room.
The bedroom in question was the first room in the mansion set up with an
infrared camera Friday night. Almost immediately, researchers downstairs
who were watching the room on a television monitor noticed what could
have been an orb move in several places in the room. At one point, it
zig-zagged across the TV screen.

"It's not usual to set up a camera and say 'Oh look, there's stuff
happening,' " said Steve Frey Jr. of Pocomoke city, a field investigator
with Eastern Shore Paranormal.
It's possible the orb was only dust -- something the researchers will
try to determine later when they play back the tapes and compare them
with other tests made that night, said Christine Power, co-director of
the group with her husband, James. The researchers also use
electromagnetic field meters and infrared thermometers in the same areas
being recorded by the cameras.

"It's not an exact science yet," she said. "Hopefully we will see all
three things together."
Their findings at the Teackle Mansion will be presented to the
Historical Society in January.
The Powers, along with other researchers who have joined the group, have
conducted investigations at 11 other sites since they started in 2004.
Of those, only two clearly "had something going on," she said.

One was Nazarene Cemetery in the Pocomoke Forest where they were able to
record a voice that can be heard on their Web site www.spellfyre.com.
The other was a private home on the Eastern Shore of Virginia where
several tenants reported experiences and a child was having
conversations with someone, Power said. The group recorded a loud bang,
but were never able to explain what caused it.

Power said the "Holy Grail" would be either to see a full- blown
apparition or to actually communicate with a spirit. So far, she has not
had any experiences she can't explain, but she and other members of the
group are hopeful.

"We're always looking for new places to investigate," she said.
