Just wanted to say to the person who wrote the article. San Pedro is not a “seedy” town. Some parts are not great, but I wouldn’t say there “seedy.” My husband grew up there and we lived there for several years after we got married and loved it and the people.

This incident was featured in “My ghost story” on the Biography channel which aired recently and as it said in the story above Hollywood made a movie about it called “The Entity”. I suggest that everyone watch the documentary before calling it a hoax.

About the

“…ectoplasmic ooze that seemed to drip down from various places in the home…it was human blood plasma with high levels of iodine and copper.”

I lived in a house about 4 years ago..and had a weird syrup coloured fluid that would gather in drips from the top of the window..the same place as in this house. However I didn’t analyse it, and assumed it was just some sort of damp related liquid coming from the paint or walls/cement (because it’s the window..and therefore wet and cold)
Anyhow..I wasn’t afraid by it, and recognised the substance as soon as I saw it in the documentary.

Unfortunately with any case like this we are heavily reliant on nothing really more than just opinions and eye witnesses, and in science we know what eye witnesses and testimonials are amongst the most unreliable sources of evidence because they tend to change and become more exaggerated as the story goes on.

I do not know “Jackie” so I will not make any statement accusing her of being a fraud or con artist, but I think they are all under some form of group delusion, believing that there is something else, without actually checking what is really there at all.

I don’t advise contacting people at home for this sort of thing, I will bet all my pocket money on theory that all the people who left this house within 6months knew about or learnt about this story.

You cannot and should not plant the seed of doubt in people’s minds, it can be dangerous and as other have said, highly intrusive and rude. Posters leaflets and freeads are great but be prepared to be tested and called out as frauds by people like myself who sometimes have nothing better to do =)

Javier, I’d like to add one more point to Tina’s question about going to someone’s residence. Public places are great to walk in and say, “can we investigate your ghost stories.” But even then it’s a bit intrusive.

They should do some research on different locations in their area and see what kind of documented stories there are. Then go directly to the location and look for someone in charge. If it’s a private residence, your best bet is to make sure your name is out there and that you have a reputation for debunking so they can contact you.

If you force yourselves on people then you’re not likely to a)get an invite to investigate and/or b)not have any activity while you’re on your investigation.

Good luck on your investigations and be careful, your next one may offer you some challenges that you weren’t expecting.

Tina,

These are all private residences.

I don’t condone anyone show up and ask the current owners about the case. Might seem a bit intrusive.

Your best bet would be to build up a name for yourself by blogging, then cases will come to you.

Hi I was just wondering, do You know if anyone lives in the home now or is it abandoned? How do I get permission to go and do an investigation on this place? I have been very intrigued by the study of the paranormal and I started up my own little crew, we call ourselves The Beyond The Grave Ghost Hunters Society. We are small right now but really plan to grow in the near future. We have had unsuccessful attempts as to contacting people in charge of places that we want to investigate. How do you usually get in contact to get permission to go inside? Thanks.

did investigators ever do research on the identity of the ghost and did they ever solve the case and catch the person who killed him.
