Battleship Investigation II
With the whole ship now open to investiation, the Port City Paranormal team returned
to continue our research at the battleship. Not all vigils are listed but all outstanding
evidence is included here.

working on their documentary of Port City Paranormal, titled " Soul Mates".

Our December 2009 vigil was unusual for us as we had a film crew from the university
working on their documentary of Port City Paranormal, titled " Soul Mates".
With the temperatures dipping into the thirties we
were wondering how long we could last in the
bowels of the ship. Using both wireless and hard
wired cameras, we set up to record as much of this
vigil as possible. Digital audio recorders were also
placed to document the night's activity.
From the moment we stepped on the deck, The
ghosts of BB55 were watching our every move.
Doug commented on how cold it was, the ghostly
answer we caight was "yeah.."

While setting up near the barber shop, we broke a light bulb. "Uh oh" Doug said,
we're in trouble now ! We all laughed but a recorded a voice that suggested we "tell
the truth" ! Someone is always with us where ever we go on the ship. We recorded
whispers and moans through out our watch. The voices responded to our questions,
and called some of the team by name. These sailors are not a glum bunch. Doug
groaned while stepping over a high coaming, saying "I've got to loose some weight.."
Someone from beyond commented, " Is That Right ?"
The sound of dripping water caught our attention from deep below Officers'
Country. From the flooded bottom decks we heard movement. The sounds of
footsteps, sloshing through shallow water were heard but not recorded. Unable to
access this area we lowered a microphone into the blackness...whispers came from
below.... I called "Hello"...when the echos passed, we recorded a far off voice saying
" We're Down here..."

Later as some of our team left early,Doug and I decided
to go investigate by ourselves. Having permission to go off
the tour route we made our way back down toward the
brig. We checked on our camera equipment and moved
about that lower deck talking to each other and the spirits
that we hoped would respond. As we entered the
engineers office we laughed and commented, "This is a
good time for a ghost to appear!"
Turning, we entered the engineers office, and out of the
blackness,something flew down the passage towards my
face !
I lept back into Doug, almost knocking him down. It was
so close, my head automaticly jerked back away from the
gastly spector.... It was then I focused on what was staring
at me, just inches away... A big grinning face !
His skin was pale and his eyes sparkled but appeared
"normal". His hair was yellow with a reddish tint to the
ends and it" floated" about his head and face. With that,
his big smile widened into a broader grin, and he shot
back away till he was just a point of light. Then Gone!
Did you see that?
I thought about a story Danny' told us, about the man with
the burning head... No, Doug didn't see it, but Danny and
I have!
Read Danny's book "Ghosts on the Battleship North
Carolina"
