Tonight since we will be dealing with a demonic force. All varieties of cleansings will take place. Cleansings:
Native American cleansing, Wiccan/Earthly cleansing, metaphysical cleansing and a Catholic Blessing. When
a multitude of cleansings take place, it is referred to as: "Burning Down the House". So it would seem
appropriate that the theme of this article is: Burning Down the House by Talking Heads, hear the song here:

Saturday, May 8, 2010. Time: 2100 Hours. Location: Vacaville. Case: Demonic.
Let me go over my notes. The clients have been experiencing a demonic presence in their home. The entity
is all black and walks on all fours. When the entity stands up, it is 7 to 8 feet tall. HPI Researcher Laurie
Rutledge of London says to be coy and ask the occupants if the number 3 means anything. When asking the
occupant she tells me that everything happens in threes. Three knocks, three chokes (the female occupant
has been chocked by this entity) and the entity usually appears at 0333 Hours. The entity may have come
into their lives, when their teenage daughter was dating a boy that was practicing the dark arts and messing
around with tarot cards. The demon will follow them from their home to a hotel room; it has even been seen
in their vehicle. The occupants feel nauseated all the time and will get sick for no reason at all. The couple is
a loving couple with children and lately their closeness has diminished. There is even talk of separation.
They feel the entity is causing the friction, the negativity in their marriage. The occupants have been so
scared; they have been living in motel rooms, until we arrive.
Tonight, we will arrive. We will plan a strategic plan of action. We will discover an avenue of approach on this
entity. We will prepare for battle if necessary. Sometimes we are warriors and the warrior mode is set in
motion...
For an investigation like this, I need a lot of energy. I am equipped with my Monster M-80 that I will chase
down with a Monster Assault.

The occupants gave a briefing of the incidents that have happened in this home. Arianna Wheeler
(occupant) in her own words describes the haunting activities in her home. Read below:
“Hello, my name is Arianna Wheeler. My husband Chuck and I live in Vacaville. The first experience
happened upstairs in our daughter Rachel’s room. Items moved unexplainably around the room and the
lights would flicker and her television would turn off at random. Sadly we did not believe her and assumed
she was imagining it. She moved out as soon as she could, claiming that the house was haunted. In her sister’
s room across the hall we found tarot cards and a book on how to use them. We threw them out knowing
that they can enable paranormal activity. She recently has moved out as well, claiming the house is too
“spooky”. In the last two months there has been a lot of activity. I was the first to see a tall and dark figure in
the hall way of our bedroom.
It looked like it had animalistic feet, sort of like hooves and something pointy towards the top of its head. I
could not make out the face or any details, but I could make out that there were two glossy, black and round
eyes like things looking at me as I lay in bed. It was around 3 am and I was all alone except for my 6 month
baby in her crib. Prior to seeing it, I felt like I was being choked, it wasn’t like physical hands around my
neck, but more of a lack of air to my lungs. I jumped up and turned off all the electronics thinking that
something might be pulling “energy” from them. I resumed my spot in bed and felt the same sensation of not
being able to breath. I thought to myself “no, no, no” and started praying for God to surround me with the
light of the Holy Spirit and it stopped. I hid under the covers and became very frightened. We’ve heard a lot
of growling noises and we don’t have any animals.
For the third time I couldn’t breath and started sweating profusely. I was sweating like I was in a sauna, just
dripping of sweat. I pulled out from under the covers and looked towards the entrance to the hallway which is
when I saw the black figure. I made myself fall asleep due to being extremely scared. My husband Charles
didn’t exactly believe me, kind of like how we didn’t believe our daughter. Our two year old Kayla was
attacked physically twice in the last couple of weeks. First she was shoved and held against the wall in the
hallway of our bedroom in the same place I saw it. When we picked her up we found horrifying red marks
around her neck. The second time that she was attacked was in the threshold of the hallway; she was in her
highchair and started screaming at the top of her lungs.
When we got to her she was holding the back of her neck. When we looked there were three huge scratch
marks that looked deep and red. We were scared for her well being and took her to relatives as soon as
possible. Next my husband was choked three times in the same place in the bed that I was and he couldn’t
breathe. Soon we fled the house since we are afraid for our children’s well being. The times we had to return
to the house my husband has been harassed with random sightings of the entity in different forms.
Sometimes it is animalistic, like a cat and other times just a black blur, kind of like what I saw in the
beginning. This negative energy has drained us and I believe our fear has given it more power. It now follows
us when we leave the house and I feel like I’m going insane. We have found a bag of pictures of us and
objects that represent each of our children. In this bag we also found red, green and black candles used for
conducting a seance. There was a journal in the room that she wrote, which said: “people will get what they
deserve and that justice will be served”. It also stated that she doesn’t believe in a God who would put people
in so much pain. Sadly I feel she has tried to put a “curse” on us, it was her payback since she feels that she
deserved more in life. At times when he has tried to wake me up in the middle of the night due to the activity,
I have mumbled very bad things that I would never say. The most scary thing I said was “there will be a
murder in a new jacket”. This was very disturbing to us since I just bought my husband a new jacket the day
prior to me saying this. I feel that it has gained energy somehow from our fear, our bodies and our
weaknesses. I am glad to take action by believing in my higher power to protect my family and me. Paul Dale
Roberts has given my family hope in the most desperate time of our lives. I’m so grateful for him and his team
of paranormal investigators. They have given us the strength to get through this paranormal harassment and
move on with our lives in a positive direction. I’m looking forward for all this to be behind us and I hope that
our story can help others know they are not alone and there is help out there.”

Members: Regina Tellez, Michelle Fontana, Robert Fischbach.
Three teams placed into three different sections of the home. 1 team is on the 2nd floor, another team is
covering the rooms on the right hand side of the house and the 3rd team is covering the areas on the left
hand side of the house.
Equipment being used tonight is: Two laptops, monitor, ghost radar, Ovulace, video cameras, digital audio
recorders, digital cameras, EMF readers, K2 readers, temperature gauges. The investigative sessions are
for 45 minutes. There will be 3 investigative sessions and an evidence briefing after each investigative
session.
Evidence Collected:
With three investigative sessions and one provoking session, it appears we may have received three EVPs.
The EVPs will be analyzed further, to make sure it’s not voices from another group. One EVP is a man’s deep
voice saying ‘go’. As for anomalies in our photographs and video footage, we have orb activity. None of the
orbs showed any signs of ‘intelligence’. Orb activity is most likely dust. There were some personal
experiences, in which some investigators felt like they were touched, grabbed behind the neck, hair stroked.
Personal experiences cannot be validated. One funny note, the Ovulace said ‘murder Paul’ and two seconds
later I walked into the room.
Conclusion:
EVPs were later analyzed and proved to be inconclusive. Personal experiences are exactly that, personal
experiences and do not reflect validation of a haunting and the entirety of the investigation. Inconclusive.
Orbs, most likely dust. Strange shadows on video footage. I had all the investigators watch the shadows on
the TV monitor and everyone was in agreement that it was the movement of other investigators that caused
the unusual shadows. Debunked. Strange sounds like growling and the sound of a child laughing.
Inconclusive. Cold spots felt during séance. Inconclusive. Psychics feel a lurking hiding presence.
Inconclusive. Strange painting on the wall of a face with three eyes and double horns was removed by the
stroke of a paint brush by occupant. A bedroom door was padlocked, because of the activity the occupants
felt in this room. This room certain investigators had personal experiences. High EMF readings were
captured in many parts of the home.
We did not prove that there is a haunting in this home, but I truly BELIEVE the occupants were terrorized by
something unknown, something unseen. Their statements are consistent. All of the investigators felt they
were genuine, truthful. The occupants are truly a loving couple with sincere motives. You could sense their
fear. I do believe they truly witnessed something that terrified them and I hope our cleansings/blessing will be
successful. In the name of God, I ask that this family will not ever be tormented again, that they will find
peace and harmony and live normal lives again. Amen.

After I left Vacaville, I made it as far as Rio Vista. The events of the evening had been playing through my
head and I was still very excited and energized. As I was nearing Rio Vista I started to get very sleepy. I
pulled into McDonald's, parked at the back corner of the parking lot, put my seat into full recline and slept
soundly for an hour and a half.
I was awakened by the sound of my daughter, Kristin's voice in my ear, "Mommie," clear and insistent. I sat
up straight, pulled the seat back up and looked around. One of the McDonald's employees had stepped
outside and was staring at my car. I waved.
Again, I heard Kristin's voice in my ear, "Love you, Mommie." I smiled. Kristin died February 10, 2003. She
was 31. She was with me Saturday on the ride to Vacaville. She let me know I would be safe before I went in
and a few other things: "not human, bad, comes from the family, feeds on fear." These things I sensed myself
as well.
These are my experiences and my final thoughts on that evening: It was great to be among others who are
open to things “paranormal.” The energy of the team was so strong and despite this, I sensed an ugly, “dirty”
energy as soon as I turned onto the street. Approaching the house it felt stronger but so did the energy of
those who came to help. It was like being outside on a very hot summer day but there is a enormous
oscillating fan that hits you with cool, fresh air making it bearable. The energy from the team was the cool air.
The unwelcome energy in the house was palpable; like a smell that is so bad you taste in your mouth and on
your tongue. There were many times throughout the night that I wanted to take a hot shower and scrub
myself down. The energy made me feel dirty; a dry, brownish-green slimy dirty. It felt oppressively heavy at
times. At other times it felt disjointed, scattered, frustrated, annoyed, and weak. It seemed to know something
about me. On one of our investigative sessions the Ovalace said “blonde,” “royal”and “dance” and would
consistently say the number of people in the room, which kept changing. During this session, I felt if I was
being held by my neck. It was like a padded vice clamp was holding onto the back of my neck.
Our session in the teenage daughter’s room upstairs was chilling for me. The air in this room felt heavy and it
was hard to breath when we first walked in. This is the second time I heard “mine, they are mine.” The first
time was when I was approaching the house on arrival. It was accompanied by a strong sense of petulance.
When I sat on the floor in this room I felt as though my legs were being held down, like something heavy were
laying across them. I felt my hair on the back of my head being touched and pulled.
The energy did not seem to like our team member, Lynn. I sensed envy which at the time seemed odd. The
energy liked corners and seemed to prefer traveling through the vents. When we joined Chris in the baby’s
room, the energy was there with him but not as strong as in the daughter’s room. Oddly, the energy felt
softer here but I heard “they are mine,” several times in this room. Each occurrence was repeated three
times, “They are mine, they are mine, they are mine” and “Mine, mine, mine.”
It had been very quiet in the room during our session in the couple’s bedroom. Then the temperature in the
room started changing, like a warm breeze then a cold breeze. The air seemed to get heavy and dirty but not
as much as in the teen’s room. It was noticeable. I sensed an almost sad anger. It felt like something was
pushing on my back and I had the sensation that something was over my head. Chris was looking over my
head. I asked him if he saw something behind me. The look on his face told it and he said, “a face.” That is
when I was scratched on the back of my head. I heard a “whoosh” like something went flying past me. I felt
little else during this session after that and my sense was that it left to room.
It is my personal belief that this bad energy had been invited into the lives of these people by the daughter
dabbling in occult. It fed and grew stronger on their fear, disjointed family dynamics, envy, jealousy, sadness,
and other unresolved personal issues. Evil is and this did not seem like a very strong evil but evil and bad
nonetheless. I sensed sadness and unresolved grief in the husband. I believe he still has unresolved anger
from this grief in the loss of his fiancé. He has guilt at feeling this way and guilt about his oldest daughter. He
also has much anger towards her. The wife is sweet but there is anger, jealousy and fear in her as well. She
has a sense of guilt and inadequacy; thinking her love should heal him. Though I did not meet the teenage
daughter, her imprint was still present. She is lost, angry, sad, lonely, jealous, feels abandoned, petulant and
is lashing out. I believe our presence and our cleansing rituals chased and dissipated the bad energy from
the home. I believe love, counseling, prayers, healing, and commitment to their family will keep this evil away
and strengthen them. They deserve love, happiness and peace.
That’s my story. I’m sticking to it!
