Ravenswood Manor, a Cliffside manor that overlooked the heavy forest known as Ravenswood. There were many stories about this Manor that has brought paranormal journalist flocking to this Northeastern Manor of the new colony territory. There were stories that the manor had been used as a place of human experimentation back in the war era. This face was never proven or any evidence that supported this rumored story were found. It was enough to draw many teams to this place, which added even more rumors that there were still missing investigative teams in the manor or in the huge Ravenswood forest, which in itself harbored stories that there was a second building that was like a prison that people for these experiments but once again nothing was found.

Tamara, one of the investigator of Ravenswood held an envelope in one hand and a letter in the other one. She held a huge smile upon her face as she walked into the office of the lead investigator. “We have received permission to enter and stay at the Manor. The Owners have sent us a non responsible form to sign before entering the estate. There will be a person there to met us on a given date and time set by us.” She looked up with a bright, excited face “So are we still going?” She bit her lower lip in anticipation of going on this most famous Paranormal estate known in the New Colony Territories. "So when are we going?" she nearly was bouncing around like her back was on fire and her ass was a catching..

The noon chime went off in the old grandfather clock in the foyer and the sound of the old chime added flavor to everyone's eerie feeling of going to this place. Tamara stopped bouncing around and shot a glare at the lead investigator, "Now that was cool!" she hissed..
 
Ophelia glanced at Tamara, she could feel the excitement coursing through her being. Finally they had been granted access to Ravenswood Manor, why them she had no idea, there had been quite a few Journalists who had asked for access and had been denied. 'You know Tamara, I think we are!!' She grinned. Please call the others and ask them to gather in the conference room, I will call William and let him know we finally got permission. Hopefully he will be finished with his current investigation.'
 
Tamara nodded, Her over zealous bouncing came to an end but the excitement still flowing through veins. This would be her fist field run, for usually she was the library book worm digging up the information, but William decided to move her up to field work the next investigation that came up. She moved out of the room and went to her little office and made the calls to have all the team meet in the conference room in one hour.

She fired up her computer and got what information that there was about the place once again. She seemed a little disappointed that really nothing change everything was all rumored. That was weird in itself that there was no facts except about who owned the place. Well, its not like they never went into a place blind before…

Mary, the small blond tech specialist was the first to arrive she was quite when she took her seat at the table. Her excitement, if any, didn’t show, for it was more of a concern look that she held. She bit her lower lip not sure she should speak up about what she had heard of the place. She looked over to Ophelia for a moment than dropped her eyes. She wasn’t going to ruin it…

Mark, the average man in everything was the next to take a seat he was at least smiling and was looking at the floor plans as soon as he sat down. He was already calculating everything the team needed. He was the black haired nerd that everyone talked about and made fun of in his high school years. He eventually looked up. “Well, we will have to take everything we have plus go shopping for more if we want to do this correctly.” he chipped in, but not giving specifics of what was needed.

Tamara spoke up. The Ravenswood Manor was built in the late eighteen seventies after the civil war. The place was a celebrity get away for years. Then, there were a few unsolved murders of the Abigail Thorston and Betty Winhelm that tarnished the mansion reputation in the nineteen thirty era. The place was still running with good profits till the late nineteen seventies when the five murders occurred overnight of the Ciscoe family. It closed one year later and hasn’t been opened to public sense.

There has been a lot of rumors about there being a second structure somewhere in the Ravenswood forest but nothing has been proven. There is also rumors that this place has been visited by other paranormal teams that have never returned. Again, this is just rumors. I know it’s a paranormal teams dream investigation, but I’m nor really sure if that was just and Internet blogging that made it get its fame… But that is why we go right to find out the truth… She looked at Ophelia that’s really all the big stuff I could find that are fact the rest is like I said hype maybe not forsure…

John was the last member but he was with William on assignment.

Tamara did manage to get a floor diagram of the manor.

'Ok as everyone can see there really isn't that much information to go on, just rumour and conjecture about Ravenswood. I've spoken to William, he and John will be finished with their investigation at the Sheild's house and will join us at Ravenswood. I'm sure that there are questions you want to ask and you know how I feel about holding things back, so with that said any questions? Comments? Information anyone has heard and isn't yet in the file? Then please fill us all in.'

Ophelia was aware that each of the guys often knew something, and she had to coax them into spilling the smallest amount of additional information they had, if any. Also there were bound to be concerns, this was going to be an investigation like no other, they were going in virtually blind and they would all need to work together as one cohesive team. Otherwise things could go wrong.

Mary finally spoke up, “The rumors are true that there was a paranormal team there just three months ago. They went in without the approval of the owners but Rick, a friend of mine, sent this vid clip to me via phone but they .. He..” she looked down to he table slightly shaking. She sniffs as she looks up and a thin stream of tears goes down her cheek. “Sorry he was just a really great guy.” she pushes the phone over to Ophelia for her to watch.

Mark looked over toward Tamara with a what’s this? Look , Tamara shrugged her shoulders and shook her head. Mark looked back at Ophelia trying to read her face. Whatever it was it created a moment of silence. Everyone turned and looked over at Ophelia when the vid finished.. “Well, should we still do this or let it slide..” Mark brow arched up, “I mean we all know the risk and if this comes to light we are set in our ways with all kinds of jobs and investigations. We have to go.” Mark added..
 
Ophelia nodded absently in reply to Mark, she couldn't believe what she was seeing and was in no way going to back out of going to Ravenswood. Here was an opportunity to make a name for herself and her team. 'Yes, we go, Mary? Can you get me a copy of this? I'll need to show William bit, I think everyone should watch this again and come up with suggestions of how we make certain this is not a hoax'. We suffer enough ridicule that I want to be absolutely certain that this footage is real.' Ophelia trembled with excitement.
 
Mary looked over Ophelia with that deep concern in her face. "You can use the phone for if we copy it, it might lose something that we need to make sure it was real and not a Photoshop remake film. you can send that to William from my phone now if you wish." She replied. "Look, he was a friend of mine and I know he wouldn't do this if something didn't go wrong. this is a help me message from him and I think we should get over there soon as possible!" Her tone of voice held the fear in it.

"I say we need to get there as well. I don't see a Paranormal team giving up this kind of evidence to anybody without claiming it unless they were in trouble." Mark added to the worry that Mary had. He didn't mean to be so cold but now watching her cry was tearing him up.

Tamara looked over to Ophelia, "We can do all this work on the way Ophelia it will take us a day just to drive up there." They all fell silent waiting for Ophelia to make the decision.
 
'No! We do the work now, no excuses. Rushing to get there will only cause problems. We do this like any other investigation, by the book from start to finish. That way when it comes to proving everything it's all been documented correctly. If anyone disagrees, the door is over there' she knew she was being harsh, but she didn't want to rush and make errors that could backfire on them
 
No one opposes the decision that was given by Ophelia for all work to be done before they leave. Mary seems distraught but brings up the floor plan of the manor and begins to figure out a lay out the best places and locations of their detection equipment should be placed. They knew once they get there the plan will have to be revised a little to meet the physical changes of decaying walls or debris from fall ceilings and things.

Mark went out an began to check out the equipment, how much cable they had and if he needed to go get more, which he knew from the last investigation they almost ran out and that place was smaller than Ravenswood so they would have to go and get more cable. Even more cameras would need to be bought. He knew they wouldn’t be able to cover everything and that was where Mary came into play for she would maximize all the cameras to cover more with less resources.

Tamara hit the net again to see what she could find as far as stories, where the major of the stores took place and so forth so that way the would have a place to start. Instead of going in blind so they could hit the major hot spots with cameras and left the less important areas for the groups investigation teams to explore.
 
After she had set them to work, Ophelia brought up the video again, curious as to what had happened. Were they really on the right track and this wasn't a fake. She hoped to god it was real. She really needed William here to have a look. He as good with videos..could tell if they were legit or not. She couldn't wait to get to Ravenswood and investigate.
 
After a few hours Tam walked over to Ophelia with several articles written the newspaper about the deaths and where they were found. She even managed to pin point where the video was shot at.

"Ophelia, I know you want to wait for Wil before we leave but Mary is a mess about this guy and what might have happened. We need to go and go now."

She took a seat near Ophelia, "All I can find on the net about this place is hearsay, rumored statements from the families of the teams that were there. Nothing is concrete with proof except this video."

"Can you call William and see if John can finish up and tell him way he have to go?" she looked at her quizzically .
 
'Ok Tamara, i'll call William and ask him to hurry and meet us at Ravenswood. Make sure everyone has everything they need and if they don't scrounge up whatever you can. I don't want to be going in there half asset because we were too impatient to do things properly. I'll give you two hours to get everything sorted and then we can go.'
 
Tam nodded her understanding and knew what needed to be done. She moved to where the rest of the team was and informed them of what was going on. They all knew their job and Mark made the comment that two hours would give him enough time to get required equipment.

Tam nodded her understanding and sent everyone to get things packed, filed, checked and even she logged everything that the team was doing starting now. She wasn't going to let this slip past them like Ophelia was fearing would happen if they hurried this along. Step by step as she was taught by her and that was how it was done.

Two hours later they all walk up and wait for the word to be given. The drive is a day long so we can drive through the night and get there around noon, that would leave several hours to get things up and running by the fall of the night.

Mary seemed to be feeling better as the team responded to her request to get there and see if her friend was okay. She nodded several times at Ophelia and even said thank you a few too many times.
 
Ophelia was still apprehensive about how quickly they were getting into sorting everything ready to go. She pushed it aside and when the two hours were up everyone was packed and ready to go. She had already called William and he and John would meet them at Ravenswood only a couple of hours after they got there. She was relieved having both William and John there soon would allow them to cover all the bases. 'Ok guys let's roll, the sooner we get to Ravenswood the sooner we can get set up. William and John will be only a couple of hours behind. I want as much of the equipment placed and ready to go as soon as possible. Make sure we cover all the angles and that nothing is missed, we need as much physical and documentary evidence as we can get'. Ophelia left the office the rest following behind and each went to the vehicle they would be driving and departed for Ravenswood.
 
There was the famous but infamous Ravenswood Manor loomed above the small group of paranormal investigators as they disembarked their cars and grouped around Ophelia. Each one holding a look of awe and a little comprehensive once actually seeing the mansion in the real compared to images from the internet or blurry photos. No one spoke for the longest amount of time until Mark spoke up out of the blue making every one jump.. “We have a lot of work to do!” Mark was the first to move toward the pull along.

Tam took a few steps toward the building with an overwhelming glare on her face.. “This is so unbelievable!” She looked back at Ophelia with a grin.. “Here we are!” She smiled then turned aback toward the manor, a bubbly step about her as she too moved toward the pull along to start getting things set up..

Mary just stood glaring up at the front entrance, not responding to anyone or anything they were doing just glaring at the building. She licked her lips. Then she seemed to come back from where ever she was … “Are we still going to look for the second building first? Or are we going to focus upon the main manor here. She figured she would ask for being here changed people plans and she just wanted to make sure that Ophelia didn’t change hers..

Tam moved up caring the Wifi booster equipment. “I say we stay with the plan we had Mary..” She looked at Ophelia a worried look on her face. “It will only take a few hours to get all the exterior cameras and hearing tabs planted. Then we can check out the woods like we agreed too.” Tam moved over to Ophelia, I think we outta use the pull along as the equipment setup instead of the tent. I just have a feeling we want to be mobile with our recorders and all..” She waited and let Ophelia to agree or disagree with Tam’s idea..
