The Farmer's Wife

The Farmer's Wife is a wonderful antique store located at 103 S. Carlisle Street in Greencastle, Pennsylvania. The owner, Marilyn Newcomer, reported that there have been incidences of the desk bell ringing by itself, hearing whispers and seeing dark shadows darting about. Her son-in-law witnessed a full figure apparition at the cash register.

Our investigation was conducted during two nights. We obtained one EVP on the first floor and on the second floor there were two personal experiences by our investigators, one dark shadow witnessed by three people and a partially formed apparition witnessed by one person. We had Liz Vargo, reporter for the The Record Herald accompany us. She interviewed us and wrote a great article for her paper. We were later interviewed by the newspaper, Public Opinion, out of Chambersburg, PA, who published an article about The Farmer's Wife.

Results of the Investigation

We got a strange recording while we were on the second floor. Larry had been running a cassette recorder and when he played back the tape, he found that Lorie had asked a question "Do you need our help?" three times. (She had actually only asked it once) We can't figure out how this could have happened on a cassette recorder. Please feel free to analyze the recording, it is interesting that the background noise is different each time the question is asked. Email us if you come up with an explanation! Listen to it here.
