More Laurium Manor Inn Haunting Opportunities



One of the biggest traffic posts to date on the 42N Observations site concerned the recounting of last summer's ghostly noises heard while visiting Michigan's Laurium Manor Inn. While this post isn't an update on last summer's story I have included a few more images from that visit to help you visualize the stately manor's interior. Ornate lighting found throughout the property may help in the location of other ghostly noises. If not, then you may appreciate their own design that speaks of elegance from another era. More serious ghost hunters should check out this group of paranormal investigators who are located a lot closer to the manor than here at 42N. Know that.

EVP From Mt Vernon Iowa Cemetery Haunting

EVP stands for electronic voice phenomena. This definition is a standard for anyone who watches the SciFi Channel's Ghost Hunters. It refers to the ability to hear ghostly sounds that are usually unheard by human ears at the time of an audio recording. Interesting. So off to the Mt. Vernon - Lisbon, Iowa's cemetery with our team to see if we could get EVPs on our first attempt. Though it was mid-afternoon (not nighttime) one day last summer we walked the cemetery with a voice recorder in hand asking questions and listening.

Listen to or download the file here.

Upon review of the recording we distinctly heard the following:

Investigator: "Is there anything that you wish to say?"
EVP: "No" or another interpretation is "Get Out" which may start before the question audio ends.

Listen closely to hear the soft response to the first question. Our follow-up question and the none response is included for you to hear the background noise as a comparison. We don't know what we captured but it certainly was quite the find for first time ghost hunters. We plan to check the site out again. Read more about the account here. Know that.

The Haunting of Laurium Manor Inn

Deep in the heart of Upper Michigan's copper country is the Laurium Manor Inn, a beautiful 1908 symbol of elegance and high style. The opulent 45 room mansion is currently a splendid guest hotel providing visitors with a chance to experience how late Victorian-era copper barons once lived. The inn is located in Laurium, Michigan and provides many choices of restored rooms and overnight accommodation packages.

Listen here to the encounter or download the file.
One experience that we encountered last summer is not detailed on the inn's accommodation list. Listen above as one investigator-in-training describes her experience in one particular guest room around 2:22 in the afternoon during late July. Perhaps upon our next return we will spend the night and take more time to investigate the sounds of this 101 year old home before calling Ghost Hunters. Know that.
