The Falcon Apartments
Two ghosts have appeared frequently in this building’s hallway, near the mailboxes and the manager’s apartment. The ghosts are reported to be two former residents of the apartments: Mr. Cooke, who always watched over and repaired the mailboxes. The other was Jimmy, who always had a fear of dying alone. Mr. Cooke died in 1989, and appears to have never left. He has been spotted where his chair once stood, and walking down the hallway. In 1994, the building was devastated by a series of fires. The first fire left a circular burn spot on the very location that Mr. Cooke used to sit on during his mortal life. Jimmy kept to himself during his years at the apartment complex, and would talk to various other tenants as they passed by. Contrary to his wish of having someone to watch him, he died alone. He is often seen sitting where his chair once was. Various ghostly happenings have occurred on the premises such as knockings on the doors, slamming of locked mailboxes, and many others in apartment 101, which some say can be attributed to a third ghost. The ghosts of Mr. Cooke and Jimmy have never been seen together.

JD – in response to your note about the Lone Fir cemetery, I was just there this weekend and got a number of EVPs. I was wondering if you caught someone singing, probably a female voice, just a few notes. I think I caught something that sounds like a lullabye. I also caught a bit in Spanish. If anyone else caught similar EVPs, it would back up the findings.

About EVP’s at Lone Fir. I have got some EVP there, some sounds mostly, one that I think kind of sounds like digging maybe sort of a knocking and scrapping noise and no it was not the cord of the mic. One of the last times I went there I did a few recordings around the cemetery and then went to the place I get the most orb pix. When I returned home to listen all the recordings were fine except there. The recording turns to a muffled hissing noise and did not even pick up my voice on the recorder. It’s strange because I did nothing to the tape recorder to alter it’s ability to record and tested it after at home and it recorded fine. I did get one possible voice once that sounded kind of like a kid saying “Get away.” But it was sort of playful, like a kid “defending” his tree house.
PS Still looking for folks in the area who would like to join me in doing this…..
