Investigation

Findings
Photo #001 - Face & Possible Apparition
Photo #032 - Possible Ectoplasm Manifesting
Video #001 - No video evidence on Camera #1

Comments
Photo #001 appears to have a face in it, however, it could be a trick from the light shining off of a dust particle. I'm not sure what it is. As for Photo #032, it appears that there is a white substance manifesting, but this could also be a bug, then again, I don't know. In my opinion, these photos are not solid proof of a haunting.

There's not enough evidence to prove or disprove a haunting. Further evidence is needed to conclude this investigation.
