The last earthquake we had was at UTC time of 20:20:23 which equates to 2:00 something my time. Nothing I have on camera has any activity related to that. Besides, it was a 3.0 which is virtually unnoticeable. Want to hear something really strange? I know what that sound is...
Behind the camera, I laid all my old storm windows flat on the ground to be tossed in the trash at a later date. They are thin and stacked on each other. I have since stepped on several of them and they cracked and broke. Since this isn't like a drinking glass, when you step on these, they don't shatter or make a typical glass breakage sound as the glass has a limited space to travel. It is only a crunch sound. This sounds exactly like it when I accidentally step on them to get something up there and put my foot directly on them.
Route, I am replying to this post, but responding to all four of your latest posts, incl. your latest video.
Starting with this post, I knew it! I was thinking earlier today when I was going back and listening to them all again, that it sounded like the noise was actually coming from BEHIND the camera. I wanted to ask you what was behind the camera, because it sounded to me like it was behind it, and there was nothing visual going on in front of the camera (I have studied the footage at great length, to be honest, lol). Like something was being manipulated further away and behind, out of good reach of the mic and lens, like something is being flicked up and dropped back down. Like a hard flapping sound. I felt like it was purposely not doing anything in camera view, but doing it behind to pester you, show it's displeasure. But I realize how silly that sounds. lol. So, I decided not to ask you, figured I had butted in enough, and didn't want to alarm you or make you any more nervous. Or, to make you think I am some kind of drama queen quack. lol. But, I just knew it was behind the camera! Thanks for telling us about the broken window on the attic floor. It makes absolutely perfect sense! It is broken glass crunching and slapping down. Sound fits perfectly.
It's ok that you don't want to go up there, Route. I hate to say it, but it might be better if you don't. Not tonight anyway. I was really hoping that it would turn out to be something mundane,
and it still might. But it really is sounding more and more what you, your family, and your Zone family has suspected from the start, my friends (you & Mrs. R.). Those knocks were a direct response to Mrs. Route throwing her cup at the wall? That is so powerful! That is crazy. It is otherworldly. I sure wish I could think of a logical explanation to help yall out. But I can't. That is not the sound of Anything that Any of us have suggested as a possible cause. That is definitely a knocking response. Not saying that something "this world" won't be found, but if you are starting to think like some of us are, Please, Please, Please, DO NOT engage it in any type of communicative interaction. PLEASE! There is more than kind of one Spirit/Paranormal! And if this one is reacting to your wife (not to mention the cold spot earlier today she felt), then this one is of the intelligent kind. That could mean a number of things, ranging from good to "not good". Maybe you should stay down from the attic tonight. Wouldn't hurt nothing.
If you are really starting to think in the line of paranormal, then it is time to ask you a question I have been waiting to ask you until the moment was right. Are you Entirely sure no one has done any kind of activity in the last weeks or even few months or so, trying to contact spirits in any way, or anything like that, even just in innocent fun, even just with a candle? This is not an accusation or a finger pointing, and this is no fault of anyone's, even if this is the case, please understand that. It is more like a doctor asking questions, symptoms, and possible activities that could have contributed to the illness at hand. That is all. (I'm a nurse, hey, it's what I do, lol) It is a "getting to the bottom of it" thing, is all. Once things have been successfully ruled out, completely and honestly, then you can work from there. I've told you a little bit about my family history, and I can tell you that sometimes innocent games can have dire consequences, unfortunately. Your beloved doggie is still with you. That is good, he will stay with you and be there for you as much as he can. What is his name, by the way, if you wouldn't mind, so we know what to call him, instead of just saying "your doggie"?
**IMPORTANT** Route, I don't know if you realize this, but needed to point it out to you. Just went back and listened again to your last clip, and dang. Sure wish I had heard it earlier, and really don't know how I didn't, but at the end of the "Knocking" clip, there are voices at the end of it. It is possibly you and Mrs. Route speaking loudly enough downstairs to be picked up on audio, I know how frustrated yall are, and I'm sure yall yell from time to time, but these voices don't really sound like yelling voices. You might recognize if it is yall or not, or remember if yall were talking right under the attic door or not. It could also be from outside contamination? But seems kind of far away for that, unless your mic is extra sensitive and very high dollar, and unless the wind is really blowing, which could blow the sound in, although your attic is sealed completely. So, I don't know.?. But, if you haven't heard the voices, go back and listen with your headphones on. If you don't have any, borrow your son's. He's probably got some good ones laying around somewhere. (I have two sons, quality headphones are a priority, lol)
