Hey gang,
I have been in the paranormal field investigating for the past three years since joining the C.O.P.R.G and we have investigated many different locations but not until our last residential investigation did I have my first "real" encounter with an entity.On the way to our last residential I was talking to our co-founder Rick Cosner and was discussing my longing for something more than the usual evp's I have heard while reviewing evidence and many "orbs" we have seen and captured.I told Rick I was ready to feel being touched or see an aparition or even hear something with the human ear.It was at this investigation that I got more than I realized.While setting up our equipment (our dvdr camera's)I had never started recording on my digital voice recorder normally until we had everything set up and started our investigations but on this night I learned that I should start recording even during set-up.While setting up one of our dvr camera's in the basement I got to about the fourth step when I heard something with my "human ear"that would shake me pretty bad and make me think twice before I ask for something more from now on.I heard a very clear voice demanding that I "GET OUT!!!". I immediatley called for Rick to get down there asap.I remember my first thought was..."Dude Run" but then I remembered "Fight or Flight".I remained calm and stood my ground saying aloud "I'm not going anywhere!!".As an investigator in this field it is our number one priority to help those in need and that is why these folks had called us.I learned something new that night as we normally do on investigations,to always be prepaired.It was a night I won't soon forget.Moral of this story...."Be careful what you wish for...you just might get it!!".

Its a bit un-nerving when we have our first personal experiances.
For me, it was having a face looking at me from a television that was completley off, and also the fact that i have had my name called in my ear one night, before almost falling asleep, and hearing footsteps walking down the hallway of the house. I have also had my hair,and my shirt tugged on!
