Pine Grove Cemetary
This investigation was intended to be
only listed under the Current
Investigations page, but due to our
surprising encounters, we decided to
give it a page of it's own.
Originally, PSIG took a trip up to
Pine Grove during the day as a
suggestion from Scott. He grew up
across the street from the cemetary and
reported various accounts of seeing
soldiers inside the cemetary and hearing
battle drums coming from near the
cemetary. The first trip was relatively
eventless, save the feeling of distinct
presenses in several spots in the
cemetary. It was then decided to make
another trip at night.
Upon entering the cemetary, the
group headed up the hill towards the
first and most distinct presense. This
spirit is referred to by PSIG as "The
Colonel," and seems to be the prominent
spirit in the cemetary. Nothing was
heard at first, but a shadow was seen on
the ground where the spirit was felt.
Also, small white lights were noticed on
the ground near the shadow. The lights
would brighten and then fade and appear
again in a different spot. After taking
photos of the area, the group headed
back down the hill towards the center of
the cemetary. During the walk, Scott
turned and saw the image of the soldier,
as he had 10 years ago, and the rest of
the group reported seeing a shadow in
the form of a man moving around on top
of the hill. The group then moved back
up the hill and began discussing the
shadow. The group then began discussing
why the spirit would stay up on the hill
in the cemetary, leaving rarely, and Jen
heard a distinct male voice say "Because
I can." She repeated what she heard,
and startled herself. Scott then began
questioning the spirit about who he was
and the string of responses continued
was mediated through Jen. It was
through this rather polite, yet cynical
and stern, conversation that it was
determined that the spirit was indeed a
Colonel in the Civil War. The Colonel
didn't offer up much other information,
but continued to answer any questions
politely and clearly. It was also noted
that while mediating the conversation,
Jen, who has a mutated southern accent
due to military brat life, took on a
completely different manor and accent
while speaking as the Colonel. It was
also noted that her voice sounded more
stern and formal than usual.
After finishing with the Colonel,
the group headed back down the hill
towards the center of the cemetary where
another spirit was felt. The group
began to question the identity of the
spirit hoping that the same thing would
happen as did with the Colonel.
Unfortunately, though the spirit did
respond enough to identify himself as a
Lieutenant. He didn't say much else,
but asked to be left alone. The group
then left the spot and looked at some
gravestones, making speculations about
the possible identity of the
Lieutentant. At this point the group
started heading toward the far left
corner of the cemetary, feeling another
presense there, but were interupted by
the Colonel. All members report feeling
a sudden sense of polite warning, and
Jen relayed one last message from the
Colonel saying, "Y'all better move along
now. You can come back later if you
like, but you better move along now."
After this warning, a sudden babbling of
voices was heard by Jen, Lyn, and John.
It was also noticed that shadows began
to pop up all around the group
throughout the cemetary. The group then
heeded the warning, said goodnight to
the Colonel and left.
We are unsure as to the reason
behind the warning. Speculations have
been made about the time in which the
warning came. Also, it was speculated
that perhaps the spirit the group was
wandering to was of the "less desirable"
kind. We are unsure however. If we
find out any more information, it will
be added to the page.
