Living in a Haunted House as a Paranormal Investigator

By: Steven Raebel

This is a story of my Investigations as a paranormal researcher. Before we get into that I will give a little background of who I am. My name is Steven Raebel; I am the Founder of a Western Michigan Paranormal Group Called “Michigan Paranormal Project”. The group was founded in April 2005 and we have been documenting and recording evidence in haunted locations since. Steven is Currently living in the Tampa Bay area Studying Mediumship and Metaphysical study's.

I’ve had paranormal experiences from the young age of 5. In my mid 20's I wanted to start documenting and discovering what was really going on. I have lived in Haunted houses or homes with spirit activity most of my life, but nothing compares to this experience.

In Aug 2008 I decided to move to a local tourist town in Michigan. Saugatuck is a waterfront community with lots of history and culture. It is a very laid back, calm, artistic, lake front community and with an amazing history.

In a rush to find a place to rent, because of self imposed limitations, I was desperately looking for an available house in my limited price range. Within one week I found an old house just outside of town, set back off the road, in a shaded property in the historic district part of town. The price was a little steep for what I wanted to pay but for a 2 bedroom house, it was perfect for what we were looking for. So I did a quick walk through of the house and said “yes”. Now, I believe every thing happens for a reason; unfortunately this was not a smart move on my part.

Within a week of signing the lease we moved into our new house. At the time I was working two full time jobs, doing investigations and Paranormal Internet radio. I was starting a new family in a new location, and everything seemed perfect.

Within approximately 4 days of moving in, my former girlfriend’s two little girls kept saying they would see a man standing in their room at night and in the morning. We looked into it decided to switch rooms with them shortly after. At this point we had felt spirits around us in the house but didn’t think much of it. We thought it was spirit guides or loved ones who passed away, coming to give comfort and love. Within two months of living in the house we had experienced Full body apparitions, hearing voices, and had taken strange pictures in the house. It didn’t take long for everyone to start acting out of character. Emotional outbursts, lethargy, headaches, depression, arguments, sleeplessness and strange actions all began to occur to those we spoke to and communicated with inside the house. Our lives began to unravel and so did our relationship.

After Six months my former girlfriend and her two children who lived with me, moved out. At that time I began doing a paranormal investigation on my own house. Once I began communicating with the spirits in the house, they started manifesting and communicating to everyone but me. Family members, other paranormal investigators even groups were able to get the spirits to communicate thew Electronic Voice Phenomena, Audible Voices, Spirit Possession and Full Body Apperations.

At the time I worked with psychics, mediums, paranormal researchers and clergy all over the ....United States.... so I started doing work with them to try and understand what was going on in my house. We used a cell phone and web cam so they could talk and see what was going on in the house. The consistency with what the psychics, friends, family, other Paranormal Investigators, and I had experienced was unbelievable. Most of the communications were from 3 different spirits. There seemed to be something else that was hiding or didn’t want to be communicated with. When we conducted communication sessions with the earthbound spirits, there would be times they would be very scared of something in the house.

Once I started bringing people into the house is when we started to understand what was going on. Seemed most people who were in contact with the house started to have drastic grounding issues. They were inspired but very out of control lifestyles. That is when I met my spiritual life coach. I started to tell her about some of the experiences I was having and that is when she started to teach me how to pray and protect myself when dealing with the paranormal. This is when I started to understand not all spirits were love and light.

I started to learn Psalms and read the Bible when the activity in the house started to get uncomfortable. Not only were there full body apparitions manifesting, but screaming and yelling coming from rooms nobody was in. Objects flying off the bookshelf’s, phone chargers flying out of the walls, beds shaking violently, and people who would visit being overcome or possessed by disembodied spirits. I understand it all sounds crazy but these things would happen on a daily basis with eyewitness within the paranormal, spiritual people, models working for me, psychics, family members, friends, and skeptics. Aside from me, they attacked the models and skeptics the hardest.

For the last six months I have lived in this house studying and doing communication work with the spirits in the house, isolated except for doing radio shows. I can no longer do that while in the house because of electronic interference from the spirits. I have lived isolated studying on what the spirits are why they are here and understanding how they communicate to each other and us.

This has been a very tough battle and high price for a spiritual education. My heart and prayers go out to anyone who has to go through this in life. My current lease is coming to an end and I am so excited to be moving on.

The one thing I have learned from this experience is that there are a lot of aspects of activity we can’t see or predict. It is very important to be educated on all possibilities. As a paranormal researcher I will include all of my experience from this house and apply it to future investigation. I have learned how important it is to combine both scientific and spiritual aspects when doing my research. I encourage anyone wanting to get into paranormal to broaden their scope to include spiritual principles of protection.
