Death Walker 3.18 "The Sentinel Spirit"


 In Albany, New York when celebrating festivities at the Orleans County Fair, a crowd gathered to watch as a man stepped out onto the tightrope.  The bridge gave way due to the weight of the crowd on the bridge.  English block building which was set on fire and and the land was bought by John Pratt who built the opera house.  Grand Army Republic (GAR) meeting room dedicated to Union forces who served in the Army and Marines.  Their motto was "fraternity, charity and loyalty."  The brutality of war veterans face.  For over 50 years war veterans frequented the GAR room and their energies taken out.  John Pratt passed away in 1901 and the stage area in the opera house was enlarged.  Horse shaped balcony has since been removed.  Many emotions are felt here.  During WWII the opera house chairs were removed for the steel war drive.  Michael purchased it in 2005 and restored all three buildings for the past three years.  Vacant parts available for paranormal investigations.  Shadow figures, disembodied voices, footsteps, strong stench.  This location could be haunted by Pratt, his nephew or a Civil War vet who wanted to stay.  Erie canal tragedy could also be the cause of the hauntings.

Michael is going to restore the floors of the buildings, the GAR meeting rooms and the ensignias that were particular to the members.  Historian found an adjoining room with a peephole and the theory is any group that ran the meeting and could stay in there to find out what was going on.  The GAR room was next to it.  He's trying to restore the opera house and have meetings in the GAR house.  Experienced tugs, voices, shadow people, footsteps across the floor.  The shadowman could be John Pratt and he walks along the stage.  The General was scary,  and followed DJ around.  People in the opera house were happy and he feels dizzy there.  Michael said the opera house ran for 50 years and there are many rumours and stories about tragedies.  The block burnt out 1820, 1960 and 1880 and everything burned down was built of masonry.  Otis is a boy who hangs around, tugs and grabs hand.  The opera house has excited emotions and happiness.  The General was a captain who oversaw things here and he hangs around here.  There were two deaths every mile when the Eerie Canal was being built.

A noise is heard on the stage of the opera house.  Nick asks if Pratt is here  "Yes...yeah."  Why do I always hear "help me...help" come through briefly.  "He didn't make it."  A woman's voice comes through underneath the male voice.  Upstairs in the GAR room he asks if soldiers are here.  Asks for the General.  Was that "Alexandra" that came though after Nick asks what their name is.   Nick hears a door open and on replay the door with the peephole can be seen opening.  That was creepy.  The batteries die.  He feels electricity on his body.  

In the basement Nick searches for the shadowman, the intelligent spirit who's been communicating with him.  "John Pratt" comes through.  "Alexander" comes through again.  "I'm the shadowman."  "Yes I did" when he asks if it made the noise.  The General is the shadowman.  "Listen."  "Who's this?"  They want him to go to the GAR room.  Nick knows there's life after death.  The contact made with the General.  He hears a cry come through.  The consciousness of those who died remains in the foundations of the building.  Spirits can communicate from the other side to show what they went though.  He wants a sign that they exist on the other side.  "I understand" comes through.

The opera house.  I heard "please help me" again.  Why - was it to do with the fire??  "They didn't make it" those that died on the bridge.  "Hi John" and a scream comes through.  Residual and intelligent voices come through.  This is the most active night chosen.  Nick asks if they are the ghosts, is he.  "Guide us."  "I am"  on the balcony.  Nick wants validation from the other side.  He asks if they can hear his voice.  "Accident" is heard.  Some man fell through the stage.  Nick uses sound activated lasers to see if shadows are seen or if noise is heard.
