Event

10th Public Ghost Investigation at Oakland's Pardee Home Museum
Three generations of the same family lived and died in the Pardee Home from the time of its completion in 1869 until the death of Miss Helen Pardee in 1982. The house has been preserved exactly how it was when Miss Helen made her final exit.

Our first nine Ghost Investigations were very successful. Everyone had such a good time. Please bring your digital recorders, cameras, EMF meters, or just your curiosity to the Pardee Home Museum for an opportunity to hunt ghosts in this historic home led by Karen Zimmerman, an experienced ghost investigator and paranormal author.

Karen and her fellow investigators will lead the search for evidence of spirits within the Pardee Home Museum.  Karen has published a book - Ghost Stories and Legends of Alameda, Berkeley, and Oakland - that contains an entire chapter on the Pardee Home.  In past investigations at the museum a number of EVPs (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) have been recorded, jackets and shirts tugged, and a mist photographed sitting in a chair.  Here is a link where you can find out about our 7th investigation: http://phcal.com/cases/cpr/pardee_4.html

You will be given a handout with Pardee Family history and floor plans of the house to assist you in your investigations.

GROUND RULES AND GENERAL INFORMATION:

This is a fund-raising event for the Pardee Home Museum.

We are limiting the group to 18 people to improve the experience for everyone involved. Much of the investigation will be "in the dark" so be sure to bring a flashlight for use when moving around. There will be some light coming through the windows from outside so the rooms will not be in complete darkness.

As people may not sit on our historical furniture everyone will be expected to either stand, sit on the floor, on a personal pillow or small portable seat they bring with them.  A limited number of chairs will be available for those who prefer one.

The house is multi-story. We do have an ADA qualified lift to allow access to the main floor.  The second and the top tower floors, however, are only accessible by narrow staircases. We apologize that there are no further accommodations available to allow people unable to climb the stairs to reach these upper levels.

The group will be split into up to two or three subgroups to cycle everyone throughout the house to maximize investigation of each floor or area.  Each group will be able to investigate the main floor, second floor and go up the top cupola room to take part in a Spirit Circle.

Please dress warmly if it is cold outside as we do not heat the house. Also, please wear rubber or other soft-soled shoes to minimize the noise as you walk around.  Similarly, no "clanking jewelry" or perfume so as not to scare away anyone or anything that may be nearby, and to not conflict with any personal experiences or recorded evidence.

This is an event for adults 18 years of age or older.  Each person attending must have purchased a ticket.

Recommended ghost-hunting equipment includes a digital or film camera, tape or digital recorder, dowsing rods, pendulums, K2 and other EMF meters and any other equipment you care to use that does not disturb the experience of the other participants or harm the house.

At some time midway through our investigations we will take a break to discuss what we have all experienced.  Our volunteers will provide everyone some food and drinks at that time.  The treats have been a hit during our prior events and I am sure you will find them tasty as well.

Please note that Karen and the other lead investigators have generously offered their service to the Pardee Home for this event.  All of the money for the ticket price of $50 will go to the Pardee Home.  Ticket sales will stop 6 hours prior to our event.
