The Country Squire
On April 10, 2010 The PCP crew conducted their first investigation of the
Country Squire Inn and Restaurant.
Our hostess, Mrs. Iris Lennon took the team on a tour of the area but did not relate
any information of prior paranormal experiences. The staff and Mrs Lennon met with
Jane before the vigil where the history of the land, buildings, and haunted history were
chronicled.
The reports of paranormal activity witnessed include whispers, full body apparitions,
pots swinging on racks,shadows moving through halls,and glass breaking. One
reported event was of darts being thrown over guests as they dined in the Tavern!

The restaurant has been in business for 49 years,but
the building was built from lumber and logs from the
early 1700's(Baronial Hall). The architecture of the
restaurant was further expanded by the additions of
sections of other old buildings from the area and bricks
from the old Bowden Hotel in Wilmington. The many
antiques, old fireplaces, and darkened corridors add to
the possibility of dining with a ghost!

Using a floor plan, our set upconsisted of six stationary IR cameras
with sound, and two portable IR handicams to document the vigil.
Each of our investigators had a personal recorder and KII meters.
KII meters (EMF) were most active in the wine tasting area ( the
oldest part of the building). KII hits were rare in other areas.
Our personal experiences, although not scientific, were feelings of
being followed and watched during the vigil. KII did not detect any
EMF that would cause these feelings. Cold spots were noted and
shadows were seen darting from room to room. One team member
reported being touched by small cold fingers while in the Jester's
Court.
We reviewed approximately 32 hours of video, and 54 hours of
audio to find over 40 EVP. No video or still photo evidence was
captured during this investigation. We are currently unable to
determine if some EVP are residual,although many seem to be
intelligent responses to our questions. Some EVP were clear but
seemed garbled. The messages recorded became more apparent
when played during the reveal. Although not clear to us they were to
our Scottish hosts !
After review of the scientific data we have significant audio proof
that there are spirit voices from the past at The Country Squire. Our
personal experiences and those of the owner and staff add support
the stories of the haunting.
We will continue to examine the evidence......and will post more as
we discover each new voice.
