To Whom It May Concern:
[ ... ]

We'd like to replace the original blog entry that was here with a statement that's more representative of who we are as an organization, and as individual team members.

Maine Ghost Hunters would like to put our appreciation, and gratitude, in writing to those of you who have been supporting us, either on the sidelines, behind the scenes, or straight out there in the public eye. We've been blessed to have you in our lives and feel fortunate to consider each of you as a "friend". Thank you so very much for being there in action, with words, or simply in spirit - through our good times, our rough times, and our fantastically amazing times - you are an essential component that is the life-blood of why we try so hard to be the best we can possibly be. We thank you for taking the time to understand us, our mission, and our reason for being. You are wonderful, and we need you to know that.

Thank you so very much,

[ ... ]

Sincerely,
Maine Ghost Hunters

Henryton Sanitarium Mini-Doc Daytime A-1

#1 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-1 shows everyone what the very start of our investigation time looked like. This first building we were in was what the investigation leads decided to call our "home base". We had to walk through the whole building to get to the back porch, where someone was standing guard over any equipment left there during investigation times. On the way out of the building one of the group psychics mentions "slimy ice" and tells us that the spirits are present in our "home base" building.

#2 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. In video A-2 our group arrives in the basement level of one of the buildings we investigate. Our group psychic experiences paranormal activity almost immediately. Take note - at 3:04 Kat and Jaime both acknowledge they heard something, and within a few seconds the other team radios over to us with an observation.

2 investigators hear something at 3:00 and comment on it. Within seconds the other group, in another building quite a distance away, radio in a peculiar observation.

#3 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-3 is roughly 8 minutes of a typical investigation. There is extremely little of this 8 minute clip that has been cut out, so you're seeing a very life-like version of what it's like to be involved, first-hand, in a paranormal investigation. Portions of video that may have been cut out are: when the camera was focused on the floor, or was bobbling around, or when someone swore or said something personally identifying that we do not want available to the public at large. Otherwise, this is all unedited footage.

Investigators claim to be hearing and seeing spirit beings.

#4 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-4 is a great exhibition of how different people can have completely different experiences while investigating the paranormal. There are a couple of investigators who are sure they are experiencing the presence of unseen beings, while others make no claim at all, or claim to be having no experiences whatsoever.

Investigators are claiming to see spirits in the tunnel.

#5 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-5 starts with the group leaving the basement level of the building and heading upstairs. As in all of the videos presented here, there may be EVP's present. Some EVP's may be more easily heard than others.

Kat claims to have seen a shadow person out the window down the hall. We have an instance at the doorway to a hall staircase where our team psychic tried to make contact with spirit beings in that area.

#6 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. A lot of Video A-6 illustrates the slower, less involved, moments of a true paranormal investigation. When you're getting to know an area, especially one that's the size of this particular location, you tend to have larger segments of uneventful chunks of time. The larger the location, the more time is likely spent getting to know the environment.

#7 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. In video A-7 we begin working with the Ovilus in one of the 1st floor rooms. The Ovlius pretty much speaks for itself (no pun intended) but it'll be interesting to receive feedback from people, to hear what outsiders think of the paranormal gadget.

A fairly uneventful Ovilus session.

#8 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-8 Slow moving, seemingly uneventful, but there are brief moments where it really feels/sounds as if we're making contact with an intelligent being. Very interesting at times.

The remainder of a pretty uneventful Ovilus session, but the ending... wow... COOL. Now *that's* a great moment for paranormal.

#9 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-9 shows some of the more low-key moments of an investigation. When we move from one room to another, often times we experience this sort of "low" period where little, to nothing happens.

#10 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-10 is another good few minutes of watching and listening to the various experiences of different people who are all in the same room. The Ovilus plays a role in this video segment, as does the psyche of the investigators in this darkened basement room.

#12 of Mini-Doc 1st Day Time Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. Video A-12 is where we start asking for a "sign". is the communication real? Or coincidence? Are these signs the real deal? Or something less...?

We ask for a sign that everyone can see, and hear. hrmmmm... what do you make of this response?

Non-Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. This is basically a "what you see is what you get" visual presentation of our arrival on scene, setting up, settling down, and beginning our 1st collaborative PM investigation. In this particular video the audience can gain some insight into the mentality of the team, the vibe of the environment, and general feel of how the night started. It really is the anchor for the progression of videos that will follow this one.

Just setting-up and finding where we wanted to be for the start of our investigation. Nothing really happens in this clip.

Non-Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. This clip has only, roughly, half of the night's investigators. The other half will be joining this group in a very short while. This segment is of value when looking at it in the sequence of all the night's videos. There are 9 in this series. Observe, as the series progresses and more people with varying personalities and emotional states become involved in the investigation...

We lost half of our group in this segment. They leave to go meet the remainder of the team that came later on in the evening. By the time this clip ends there are only a few of us left here to continue this EVP session.

Possible Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. This video exhibits some of what we considered to be possible communication with the unseen. Notice the mentality of the team, the demeanor of the group collective, and the overall vibe of these few minutes. There are 5 investigators working the scene in these 6 minutes, but soon the other 7 will return and the group will grow to 12.

Notice how calm we have been during the past few clips. Our numbers have been lessened, but we're still very relaxed, and focused on working the environment. Toward the end of this clip we wonder, are we making contact with a spirit presence?

The rest of the team arrives, and our numbers grow from 5 to 11. It's interesting how the team dynamic changes, and the vibe in the environment shifts quite noticeably, and quite quickly.

Non-Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. This video exhibits the differences between smaller and larger groups during investigation times - simply compare it to video C-3. This video also allows us to take notice of the different personalities of the investigators and how these traits affect an environment, the group collective, and the investigation.

This segment exhibits the antithesis of what the first couple of clips worth of experiences provided. Whereas, at the start of this night's investigation the group was calm, relaxed and focused on working the environment, by the time we've reached this point in the evening we start to notice a clear and direct change which starts to pull us all in a very different direction.

Non-Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. This video is primarily an EVP session. It's seemingly "simple", on the surface, but is there more to this segment than meets the eye? 12 people all in the same place attempting to make contact with what cannot be seen, and evidence is not readily presenting itself.... could this be leading up to something more?

Non-Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. This video exhibits how different people perceived their experiences during the short time we were all investigating together. The investigation, quite literally, falls apart in this segment. Notice the difference in personalities and how each person expresses themselves. What's your opinion about what you observe here in this video?

Notice the difference in the team dynamic from the first few minutes of investigating. We only lasted 30 minutes at this location after the last of the group joined us. It seemed our entire vibe changed from calm, relaxed, focused, etc... to excited, anxious, chaotic, and attention seeking- to some degree. Within a half-hour we were directed we must leave for our own safety. Our team psychic (who was fantastic!) had to remove herself from the situation to escape the overwhelming feeling of it all. The night was over before it began. We couldn't wait to get back out there the following evening.

Non-Evidence Part of Mini-Doc 1st Night Investigation

Maine Ghost Hunters investigates an abandoned hospital somewhere in the U.S. with teams from across the country in a group effort to capture evidence of paranormal activity on the grounds. This is the first of 2 nights of our collaborative team investigation. The final video of the night's events. We all met up at a local parking lot to discuss what had happened during the investigation. This is the run-down by various members of the team... describing their understanding and perception of our shared experiences of the evening. If you've watched all of the 9 videos of this night's investigation session, what's your take on this clip?

The team psychic explains her impression of what's going on within the grounds, spiritually. Her insight and perspective are respected, hands down. What about the rest of this clip... what is our group dynamic looking like at this point in time, and what's the difference from when we first arrived on scene? It's a very interesting introspective.
