Fort Fisher, N.C.
T Fort Fisher was one of the last state owned
battlefields in North Carolina open to paranormal
investigators. This site has now been closed to
night visits due to the actions of a very small
number of thrill seekers and vandals who were
unable to respect the site.
This has prompted Port City Paranormal to
promote our "Investigate the investigator"
program. In short we encourage everyone to ask
for references before allowing anyone into your
home or property! Know who you're gonna call!
Thanks, Port City Paranormal

Port City Paranormal was able to investigate the Ft. Fisher
Battlefield site two times in 2008.
The battlefield is well kept and the local history is extensive.
We documented the grounds with still photos before that evening and
we carried all the usual equipment. I was filming with a Sony Ir video
camera, and followed the team past the museum to the river.
Faintly, we could hear the loading of a container vessel across the
river, the sound could be mistaken for cannon fire! While filming on the
board walk, I felt something coming up behind me, I quickened my
step to catch up with the team and felt something surround and move
through me. That left me shaken. The boys noted a severe chill behind
me and thought they heard a voice. The same experience happened on
the second by another team member.
The trees to the south of the main sally port seemed to be the home
of black shadows, witnessed on both our visits. While reviewing our
video evidence we noted a white form spinning from the trees and
mover over our heads as we filmed. The parade ground also proved
to be active during both visits. Around 3 am Doug thought he saw two
of us moving from the barracks towards Shepard's battery. He then
realised the two figures were dressed in grey and were only visible
from the waist up. Before he could speak, they vanished. On the
second vigil Shelia noticed what she thought to be a drunk or injured
man in the same area. The same apparition was also witnessed by
Doug from a different location before vanishing.

No EVP evidence was obtained due to sounds of the ocean and a brisk breeze.
No EMF spikes were noted, and our team was unable to document the shadows or
the ghost like apparitions.
Every one on the team who investigated, had a personal experience during one or
both investigations.
We had planned to return with more equipment, static Ir cameras and a larger team.
Fort Fisher is a very active site and will need several extensive investigations to
completely document and photograph activity.
