Please explain your experience: On Saturday 4/23 I experienced a few odd phenomena at the Whaley House. I witnessed a reddish orb in front of the fireplace in the upstairs bedroom.  I took a picture of it and the orb did turn up in front of the fireplace.  Secondly, I was listening to Robin (docent) and another woman talk standing in front of the doorway to the theater. I saw a small shape (almost bug like but not really) most fluidly between them and then out the door like a person getting out of the way. I followed it and it disappeared.
