Hickory, NC - The Salt Block - former school

Temperature fluctuations, shadow people, loud inexplicable noises of things falling where no objects or individuals were present. EVP responses to questions. Objects moved. Moving EMF anomalies. Chairs audibly moved in another classroom where no one was present on the floor - verified. In the past ppl have been locked in the bathrooms regularly. A well known phenomenon. Participants and visitors are advised not to enter a bathroom there without having someone with them holding/blocking the door open.

Wilmington, NC - U.S.S. North Carolina Battleship (as seen on TAPS)

Tons (no pun intended) of activity there. Audible EVPs recorded and heard in real time. Class A EVPs. Breaths, footsteps, objects moved, interactive. Shadows photographed. Full bodied apparitions. Ghosts roam the entire ship at will here and occasionally hitchike off the ship as well.

I will be making a trip or two when it warms up some, back to NC where my family is. A couple of my sisters are in SC.
I'd love to meet up with any Nightwatcher boardies sometime. The theater in Tryon NC is reported by the staff to be haunted. The owner is skeptic. I'd love to investigate that place. They had a murder there from a love triangle back in the 50's (I think it was)
