There were eleven people in our group this year. There were a few instances of note: In the upstairs of Blockhouse Two, over the Supply Depot, Margaret's EMF detector sounded off by itself a couple of times, even though it wasn't even turned on. Also, near the door between the Supply Depot upstairs and the Barracks upstairs, there was a very loud clap sound, heard by a number of people. It actually seemed to have come from the other side, above the Barracks. No one was in that room at the time. Peter was close enough to the doorway that he felt the vibration from the sound.
There was the smell of horses near the Pensioner's Cottage.
Wendy heard cannon sounds while inside the tunnel.
Wendy videotaped what appears to be a W.W.I or W.W.II soldier.
Margaret videotaped what appears to be a tricorn hat appearing on Peter as he walks past the window of Blockhouse One. He seems to disappear as he actually passes in front of the window, except for a bit of the tricorn hat, and then he reappears on the other side of the window.

There are a few interesting photos to share, and a number of very interesting video clips. There are also three audio clips to share.

WENDY'S AUDIO CLIPS

The first audio clip isn't really an evp. It contains the loud clap sound that was heard above the Supply Depot, along with some of our voices.   Click here to listen.

This audio clip is from Peter's tape recorder. It also contains the loud clap sound. Peter was close enough to the sound to have felt vibration from the sound wave or from whatever caused the sound.   Click here to listen.

The second audio clip is an evp, which was captured in the Staff Building. I'm not sure exactly what it's saying.
Click here to listen.

The third audio clip is also an evp. It was captured at the back of the Fort, when Margaret and Wendy were alone on the grass by the hill, trying to film the musket ports. It says, "Right on". Click here to listen.

VIDEO CLIPS
The first video clip was taken by Wendy, when the group was in the area by the cottage. Wendy was filming the Officers' Quarters. In the clip, you can see Sanford, who was a member of our group, as well as Wendy, and a third figure. The third figure, although appearing solid, was someone who apparently did not exist at the time of the tour. He was not anyone from our group, and was not seen by anyone at the time. Two friends of our security person were just seconds behind the figure on the path, but they didn't see him, either.
UPDATE: Although we at first thought the figure was from WWI or WWII, after taking a closer look at stills taken from the video, and after consulting with a member of the Lincoln and Welland regiment as well as someone from Fort George, both of whom looked at the stills, we've found out that the figure is from the War of 1812. He is wearing a belgic shako. A cartridge box can be seen at his hip. On his shoulders are the wings of a grenadier uniform. In the photo section below, you will see still photos from the video, as well as photos of the belgic shako, cartridge box, and wings of a grenadier uniform.

The following video clip was taken by Margaret.   This video clip is extremely interesting. For those who have seen the video clips from last year's private investigation, you will recall that there is one in the Barracks, of a man in a tricorn hat. This video clip shows Peter, who was a member of our group. However, after his first couple of steps, a tricorn hat appears on his head, and his posture appears to change somewhat. It's almost as if someone or something were superimposed over Peter. Also, as he passes in front of the lighted window, his head disappears except for his hat, which can still dimly be seen, and then he reappears as he reaches the other side of the window. He is followed by what may be an energy streak.

PHOTOS
The following photos are stills taken from Wendy's video of the unknown figure. Click on the photos to see larger versions.




Below are photos showing the belgic shako, cartridge box, and wings of a grenadier uniform.
These photos do not have larger versions.


The following photos are stills taken from Margaret's video of Peter and the tricorn hat. The first photo shows Peter. In the second photo, you can already see the tricorn hat, and it can be seen better in the third photo. The fourth photo shows Peter's head disappearing except for the hat, which can be seen faintly, and the fifth photo shows it reappearing. Click on the photos to see larger versions.




The following photos were taken by Peter. The first photo seems to have captured something that Peter has captured in a number of photos at Fort George. This skull/face has affectionately been given the name of "Skully", as it has appeared so many times. The third photo is a close-up of the second. The orange-coloured orb seems to have a face in it. Click on the photos to see larger versions.

The next photo was taken by Rick. It is a photo of one of the back upper windows of Blockhouse One. The photo shows a couple of orbs which are clearly inside the window, and a skull-like face which can be seen in the top left circle. Click on the photo to see a larger version.

The following photos are stills of energy streaks taken from some of Margaret's video clips. Click on the photos to see larger versions.

MARGARET'S EVPS
This evp was captured by the cannon outside of the Fort. It says, "Gone too far."   Click here to listen.

This evp was captured by the telescope and seating area outside of the Fort. Although we can't quite be sure what the voice is saying, it still sounds very interesting.   Click here to listen.

This evp was captured just inside of the front gates. It, too, is unknown as to its content, but is very interesting.

The following evps were captured on the second floor of the Supply Depot side of Blockhouse Two. Each of them was captured right after Margaret's EMF detector went off by itself. It hadn't even been turned on. They were all captured within less than 2 minutes.
The first evp says either "Gonna have to" or "Gonna help her".   Click here to listen.
The second evp says, "It's Laura."   Click here to listen.
The third evp says, "Tell her."   Click here to listen.
