      Over the three days we did one Frank Box session up at the Bentonsport Cemetery and three sessions in Room 5.  Chris Moon had a new Box that was able to foil the negative energies.   The following are transcripts from portions of those sessions.  Personal messages are not transcribed.  Ty is Chris's spirit technician.

        Friday, 22 Aug., at the Cemetery

Chuck: "Who is the most prominent spirit here right now?".................'Joseph'      Ty: 'There's forty-nine'

"Are you all spirits from the cemetery here?"..................'No.  From all over.'

"Have we talked to any of you before?"....................'Yes'

"Who have we talked to?"...................'Lewis'

"Lewis Mason is here?"....................'Yes'

"What about Harold?"....................'Yes'

"Harold, what are you doing here?"......................'Random mischief.'

Guest:  "Harold, we're in Room 5 tonight, come see us."....................'That's a relief.'

Guest:  "Kelly's here."...................'I know.'       Woman's voice:   'Mildred'

Chuck: "What's you last name, Mildred?"......................'Campbell'

"Are you buried here in this cemetery?".................'Yes, cemetery.'

"What year did you die?"............................'1863'

        The mosquitoes were really bad so we cut it short and went back to the Inn.

         Friday, in Room 5:

Chuck: "Who do we have in the room right now?"...................'Harold'    'Curtis'

"Harold, how many do we have here tonight?"......................'Six'

"Oh, a small group tonight."..................'I could get more.'

"No, that's okay.  I have a question for you, Harold.  A few weeks ago, Joy was in this room with Cindi and they were doing something with the fan chain and something happened to Joy.  What happened?"............'Ask Amanda.'

"Amanda, do you know what happened?"...........Amanda: 'It fell.'

"But what happened to Joy?"......................'A touch-touch.  Ha ha.  Chain fell.'

"Why did you touch Joy when the chain fell?".................'I laughed.  It was funny.'

"So it was you, Amanda, that did it?"....................'Uh huh.'

"That was a pretty good touch-touch, Amanda."   Cindi:  "It was loud.  More like a whack-whack.".........'Sorry'

"Don't be sorry, it was neat.  Were you upset that she was changing the fan chain?"............'No.  It fell.  I thought it was funny.'

( I had taken off a white ball chain pull because people kept thinking it was an orb in their pictures.  But when I clipped the chain, the ball fell between the mattress and the footboard and I had to go digging for it.  That's when I felt a sharp slap on the back of my neck.  Cindi was standing a few feet away and she heard the slap, it was that loud.)

Chris:  "Harold, did you have anything to do with that?"...............'Yes'

Joy:   "We just took the fake orb off and put a different one on."...............'It was mine.'

"The orb was yours?"................'Mine.  I want it back.  Now how am I supposed to move it?'

"You can move this one.  It's just brown instead of white."......................'Not the same.'

Chuck:  "Who was in our room the other night?"...................Harold: 'That was Curtis.'     Curtis:  'What?'

"Curtis, did you move the chair in our room?"................'Yes.  That was funny.'

"Were you playing with the papers on the desk?".................'Yes'

"You know you startled Joy?"...................'Good'

"That was a pretty good trick."................'Thanks'            Markie: 'Hi, Chris!'

Chris:  "Oh, Hi Markie.".................Markie: 'Amanda's here.'

"Amanda, Markie is here.  Do you want to talk to him?"...........Amanda: 'No'       Markie: 'She's head strong.'

Chuck: "Did anybody go on vacation with us?"...............'Me'

"Who's me?"...................'Harold'

"What did you do on our vacation?".....................'It went up high and came down fast!'

"Did you go on the rides, Harold?"..................'Well, yes.'

"Which one did you like best?"..................'Fast one, dropped.'

"Who did you go on the ride with?"...............'Whole family'

"Were there more there besides Harold?".....................'Seven tried.  Two got lost.'

"Lost?"..................'They got off somewhere.'

"During the bathroom break?"..........................'We don't do that.'

"Who got lost?".......................'Curtis.  He came home.'

"Did anybody go on rides with Jinni?"........................Amanda:   'I did.  It was like flying!'

"How about Aurora?".......................No answer

"Did anybody go on rides with Kristin and Dan?"................... Three voices say 'Yes'   'Yes'   'Yes, Kristin'

"They went on the really fast ones didn't they?"...............Harold: 'Uh huh.  It was crazy.'

"Did anyone go on the Dragster ride with them?".....................No answer

Joy:  "They may not know the names of the rides.".............Harold: 'The one that went really fast.  Straight up.  It was crazy.  I thought I was going to throw up!'

Chuck:  "Can you throw up?".............'Ha ha.  Just kidding.'

"Can you keep up with the ride?"...................'Attach to energy.'

"Were they any other spirits there?"...................'Hundreds.  It's a good place to go.'

Guest:  "Do we always have spirits with us?"...............  Ty: 'Yes.  It's great.'

Guest:  "Have we brought any with us today?"...........'Sure'

Chuck:  "Is Anna here tonight?"..............'Sure'

"Anna, can you tell us what year you died?".................'1916'

"How old are you, Anna?".......................'I died.   Almost 16.  I died at a celebration.'

"Did you die here in Bentonsport?"............'No.  By river.'

"Did you die in the river?"...................'No.  Came by river.  Traveled here.  Boat.'

"Is our river going to stay in the banks now?  Any more flooding?"..........'No flood now.'

"So it's okay to take down the sandbags now?"..............'Yes, it's okay.  The storm, you missed the big one.'

"Harold, did you like the lady in Room 6 last night?"..........Harold: ' Oh, yeah!'

"She thinks you're a flirt."...................'I kissed her.'

"Who was playing with their door?"....................'That was Bart.'

"Who's Bart?  Does he inhabit the Inn?"..................'Yeah'

"For a long time?  Or is he new?"...................Bart (he has a very low voice): 'Since 1890.'

"Did you die in 1890, Bart?"..........................'I died'

"How old were you, Bart?"..................'I don't know.'

"Is this you, Harold?  Are you playing with us?".................Harold:  'No.   He's here, really.'

"How old were you when you died, Bart?"...................Bart: 'Why?'    Harold:  'They always want to know that.'

"Do you have a last name, Bart?"........................'Of course.'

"Are you going to tell us what it is?"..................'No'

"Why wouldn't you let them in the door?"...................'I was teasing them.'

"Has Joy seen you?".......................'Yes.  I was flying by.'

"Oh, you were an orb?"......................'Yes.  Flying.'

"Welcome to the Inn."...................'Thanks'

"Amanda, do you have anything you want to talk to us about?"........................Amanda: 'Prescriptions'

"What about prescriptions?"........................'Medicines.  Take them.'

"Who?"........................'Hans'

"What medicine for Hans?"........................'Prescriptions.  See the doctor.'

"Is he okay?"......................'Health'

"Does it have to do with work?".......................'Health.   I got a new cat.'

"Is this Tiger or the new kitten?"..................'Little one.  White.'

"There's been a stray white kitten hanging around.  He's not friendly.  We've been trying to shoo him off."...................'Leave him alone.  He's mine.'

"Did you see Tiger's back?"...................'Yeah.  Jinni's cat.  Where was he?'

"At Kristin's house, but he's back now."......................'Jinni's glad'

Joy:  "Who turned the light on in our bedroom last week?"..................Harold:  'I did it.  Harold.  Yes.'

Guest:  "It's getting cold right here." (By her leg)...........................Harold: 'You asked for a touch.'

"Is that you, Harold?"...................'No.  Cat.'

"Josephine?".....................'Yes'

Guest: "Maybe you could touch me, Harold?"........................'You want a touch-touch?'

"No.  Not a touch-touch."........................'A whap?'

Joy:  "That's what I got, a whap.".....................'Not tonight.'

"Why did you turn the light on in our room?".........Harold: 'I don't know.  It was funny.  You jumped up.'

"Who knocked on our bedroom door?".................'A child.'

"Yes, it was a child's knock.  Who was it?"..............'Johnny'

"That's what I thought.".......................Amanda: 'You took the toy back to the store.'

"What toy?"...................'Aurora's toy.  I liked it.'

Cindi:  "Aurora's toy?  That was a while ago.  It didn't work right.  I had to take it back."..............'We played with it.  Now it's gone.  That was mine.'

Chris: "Thanks guys for a fun night tonight.   Keep them hopping tonight.  You don't have to wait till they get in bed you know."...................Harold:  'Yeah.  Touch-touch.'

      On Friday night, we had Josephine on our bed.  No body else had anything happen in their room.

     Saturday, August 23, 2008, in Room 5:

Joy: "Someone told us there was a house or cabin here before this Inn was built, does anybody know anything about that?"..........Girl's voice:  'I do.'

"What's your name?"...............'Emma' (or Elma)

"What can you tell us about that?"............'It was a shack.'

"And what happened to the shack?".....................'Washed away.'

"Was there anybody killed in that?"...................'I don't think so.  No.'

"Thank you.  We were told that a family lived in a cabin on this property, and the Indians burned it down and the family was killed.  Does anybody know anything about that?"...........'That's not it.  No one killed.  Washed away.'

"Do you know what year that was?"...............'1823'

Chuck:  "In a previous session you said there were about a dozen children here.  Is that number still correct?"............Harold: 'Yes'

"And you said there were about 65 spirits here full time.  Is that still correct?"..........'About 102 now.'

Chris:  "Ty, what would you say it is?"...................Ty: 'Over a hundred, pretty close.'

Chuck: "Welcome everybody, we haven't met you yet.".............Several voices say: 'Thank you'   'Thank you'   'That's nice'

"Hi everybody out there.".......................Several voices say: 'Hello'

"Does anyone have any thing to say to us as owners?".................Man's voice:  'Stop cleaning.'    Harold: 'That was Bart.'

"Why do you want us to stop cleaning, Bart?"...................Bart: 'Machine's too loud.'

"The vacuum cleaner?".......................'Too loud'

"What's your last name, Bart?".....................'Just call me Bart.'

"How old are you, Bart?".........................'Do you know I'm dead?'

"Yes, we know you're dead.  Did you die in Bentonsport?"........................'Over the bridge.'

"Over the bridge?   You jumped off the bridge?".................'No'

"Do you know how you died?"...........................'Shot'

"You were shot on the bridge?"................'No.  Over the bridge.  On top.'

"You were on top of the bridge and somebody shot you?".......................'Yes.  That's when I fell.  I was shot.'

"Were you doing something wrong being up there?"..................'Yes.  Stole money.  Ran away.'

"Did the Sheriff shoot you?"..........................'Yep.  I was quick, but not fast enough.'

"What year was that?"...........................'1890.  It was on the first of June.  Why?'

"We want to see if we can find a newspaper article about you.".........'Ahhh'

"Did you know Jesse James?".................................'He was great.'

"Did you know him?"......................'No.  Heard of him.'

"Did Jesse James ever come to Bentonsport?"..................'No'

Joy:  "Is Michael Brown still there?"...................'He moved'

"What room is Michael Brown in now?".......................'Family room'

Chuck:  "Is Mary here tonight?  We haven't heard from her yet."...........................Harold: 'She's always here.'

"How are you Mary?"............................Mary:  'Loud.  Too loud.'

"What?  The music across the street?" (There was a band playing at the shelter house.)...........'Yes.  Too loud.'

"Well, hopefully it is over now.  It was too loud for us too.  Too bad you couldn't have pulled some plugs over there."..................Harold:  'We did.  They had trouble all day.'

"Well, thank you for trying."....................'You're welcome.'

Cindi:  "Why were you warning me about Hans' health?".....................Amanda: 'Prescriptions'

"Is it life threatening?"......................'Not yet.  Needs prescriptions.'

"What about the ear tubes?  Yes or no?"......................Ty:  'Yes.  It will solve it.'

"What about his stomach?  Can they take care of that?"...................'Wet comes up, he plays in it.  He'll be okay.'

Chuck:  "You've been a great help tonight, thanks.".................Harold:  'You're welcome.'

       On Saturday night, the people in Room 7 saw little golden orbs zooming around and around their room.  They had left a bracelet on the dresser, curled up like a snail and in the morning it was laying straightened out.  He also said that he had left his cell phone plugged in all night long, but in the morning the battery was still empty.  He said the screen was lit all night long and he could not come up with an explanation for that. 

     Sunday, Aug. 24,  Room 5:

Chuck:  "Harold, I'd like to talk to you about our vacation and the rides you went on, okay?"............'Okay'

"From the scientific side of it, I have a hard time envisioning how you went on a ride and stayed in place without a seat belt.".....................'Attach to your energy.'

"Are you grabbing onto a shirt?   Tuck yourself into a seatbelt?  Or just grabbing onto the energy and staying with the ride?"..................'Attach to your energy and hold on tight!'

"So you are able to stay up with the ride and maintain speed?"............'Yes, when attached to your energy.'

"So it's like holding hands?"................'Sort of'

"Do you scream along the ride with everybody else?".................'Sometimes'

"Which was your favorite ride?"...........'The one that went so fast.'

"Who did you ride it with?"....................'Kristin.  She rode the fast ones.'

"We'll have to tell her you went with her.".........................'She knew.  It was cold.  I thought I would break my neck!'

"Can you do that?"...................'Ha ha'

"Was it a blur to you on the rides?".......................'What's a blur?'

"Could you see where you were going?"..................'Yes.  Through projection.'

"How many of you rode that ride?"............Harold:  'All of us.'            Amanda:  'I got off.  It was too scary.'

"Did anybody ride rides with Aurora?"....................No answer

"So how many rode with Kristin?".......................Harold:  'Five'

"So you were attached all over her body?".................'No.  Her energy.  Inside her.'

"Did anybody ride with Jinni?"......................Amanda: 'I did.'

"Did anybody ride with Cindi?".....................Harold: 'Yes, but she left.  That's how two got lost.'

"Is it because we divided up into different groups and you didn't know who to follow?"..........'Yes.  Too confusing.   Curtis got lost.  He came home.'        Girl's voice: 'Tabitha'

"Did Tabitha go too?"...............................Harold:  'No.  She's waiting to talk.'

Guest:  "Harold, was that you earlier touching my neck?"...................Harold:  'It was me.'

"Thank you for stopping."..........................'Did I do it enough?'

Another Guest:  "Who was playing with my necklace?"...................Harold:  'Tabitha'

"Why did you do that?"........................Tabitha: 'I liked it'

Another Guest:  "Who's tickling my left ankle?".......................Harold:  'Josephine.  She's going to be doing more of that.'

Another Guest:  "Amanda, will you have your picture taken with me later?"......................Amanda: 'Sure'

Guest:  "I got a picture of a man in Room 6 earlier, who was that?".....................Harold: 'Me. Harold.'

Guest: "Who was the orb in the picture of my wife in Room 8?"...................Girl's voice:  'Me'

"Who's me?".......................'Jessica'

Chuck:  "Who's Jessica?  Is she an inhabitant of the Inn full time?"............Harold:  'Just passing through.  Came with you.'

"Is she attached to them?"......................'Yes'

Guest:  "Did I name my daughter Jessica after a spirit attached to me?".................'Yes'

Cindi:  "Hans want s to know if you have a message for him?"....................Harold:  'What's up.'

"Does he still need to go to the doctor?"............'Yes'

"He says he'll have a hard time telling the doctor that a spirit sent him.  He wants to know if you have any more specific information."..................Harold:  'Don't say that!'

"What specifically should they look for?".................'Glands'

Guest:  "Harold, will you play a trick on us later?".......................'What room?'

"Five".............................'I'll do that for you.'

"Thank you.  I'll be looking for you.".......................'Look hard'

Chuck: "Hey, Bart, are you still here?"...................Bart:  'I'm always here.'

"How much money did you take from the bank?"................................'Not enough.'

"Do you interact with the guests here?".....................'Sometimes'

"It was good meeting you this weekend."......................'Yup.'

Chris:  "Okay, thanks everybody for talking with us.  We're going to go now."..................'Bye'

      On Sunday night, one of the ladies in Room 5 had Josephine on her bed, she heard music from someplace in the Inn but could not place where it was coming from, and she heard a whisper in her ear from a child but could not understand what she was saying.  The people in Room 7 also heard the music and had Josephine on their bed and the light around their window shade was blocked for a short time which cannot be explained either.  Chris and Dennis, in Room 1, heard lots of walking around sounds coming from Room 6 overhead and running in the hallway.  The lady in Room 6 heard the noise in her room, but not investigate.  She also heard the running in the hallway but thought it was the other guests.  When we asked if anybody was up around 2am, everybody said they were in bed by midnight and were not in the hallway.  Chris said it sounded like hard shoes on a hard wood floor, but the floors are carpeted.
