Haunted America Midwest Conference

Excited to attend again this year. I am very interested in Decatur, Illinois’ Lincoln Theater. I have heard countless stories from those who have spent time there. Theaters are simply home to strange things…

This proves that not everyone is cut out for paranormal studies or “ghost hunting.” If this guy had any common sense he would be alive right now, able to continue his search for ghosts, but that’s not the case. He died pushing his girlfriend out of the way…did the girlfriend survive? By the looks of the video, he pushed her right off a bridge! I don’t understand why they were on an active train track that had no way of getting off WHEN a train came barreling at them? I just don’t know.

I think even I could easily do this in a computer program. This is fake.

The Charlie Grimille Case, Beatrice Nebraska

walterjensen1951 — Sun, 16 Nov 2008 22:10:52 +0000

So here is what I’ve dug up on what I am now referring to as “The Grimille Case.” I managed to get some scans of the Beatrice Daily Sun issues from October 31st, 1983 and October 30th, 2008 (not very easy to come by I might add). First off I’d like those reading this to remember that these are my opinions and findings based solely off the facts presented in the articles. These events did happen. The connection between them is however, unknown and not entirely understood.

What I do know is that (as explained in the article) Charlie Grimille was an avid thespian. He devoted much of his own time to the school’s drama club and assisted in dozens of productions throughout his high school years. I actually looked up his parents in Beatrice and gave them a call, but they didn’t want to talk to me. Even though I was only interested in his life before the accident and not so much the accident itself, I understand their hesitation. From what I gather from other sources, theater was Charlie’s life until he lost his life to it.

After hearing other accounts of strange happenings in the theater up until the 2008 deaths, I quickly came to believe that just because Charlie was dead, didn’t mean he ever left the theater. As stated in the 83′ issue Daily Sun, “the theater simply doesn’t feel right anymore.” Well of course it doesn’t feel right anymore! Something terribly unfortunate happened to a great young man who didn’t have a chance to finish one of his last high school shows. There was unfinished business and as any thespian knows, the show must go on! Again this is my theory, but theatrical superstitions have been incredibly powerful. If Charlie Grimille was a true believer in such superstitions, then why shouldn’t he be able to finish what he started?

Which brings me to the 2008 killings; which I do believe were killings and not self-inflicted cries for attention as many believe. What compelled the students to break into a school which they knew was haunted, I am not sure. Perhaps they were simply looking for a good time? Or perhaps they wanted to see for themselves if the school’s theater was home to the accused spirits. Either way, it was a bad decision which cost them their lives. But what happened to them is fairly clear in my opinion. As I said, Charlie Grimille had unfinished business. Why then would Charlie take it out on these poor kids in such a gruesome way? There are several possibilities in my opinion. 1. They stepped over the boundaries of the school, and more importantly disrupted the sanctity of the theater. 2. Perhaps one or several of the students were relatives of those who had wronged Charlie while he was alive. 3. Charlie was intended to play the hangman and was denied that role. The night he died from what I hear, he was somewhat upset that the hangman role was not fulfilled in the show.

Did Charlie come back from the grave to complete his role of the hangman? It would appear so to me. This is a case that I think will remain unsolved because there is no “person” to point fingers at. It is 100% paranormal and bizarre. My prayers go out to the families of the deceased.

Nebraska School Haunted?

walterjensen1951 — Wed, 12 Nov 2008 10:33:10 +0000

I was very intrigued by this story. It was first told to me when I made a trip to Omaha last month for a convention by a collegue of mine who lives in Nebraska . Apparently in October 1983 a boy was hung on stage during a high school play in Beatrice, NE. This was a huge shock, my friend told me he was there when it happened and remembers how scary it was for everyone at the show. Well just last month (exactly 25 years after the incident) there were 3 more deaths at the same high school. How did they die? They were all hung. Not weird enough? What if I told you that the school was putting on the same exact play the very next day!

How and why are these events linked so closely? Any thoughts? I will continue to look for evidence.

My friend and colleague George Berrans told me about this event. Looks a bit amateurish but the places they are investigating have some interesting history.

Collecting Rent From The Grave

Quite often you can tell by the tone of person’s voice if they are telling the truth or not. Or at least if they THINK they are telling the truth. Exequiel Chavez thinks he is telling the truth in this case. I’ve heard my fair share of strange noises, but the way he describes this one, it seems incredibly strange. So many noises can be misinterpreted. A scrape on a window, a gust of wind, but a harsh knock on a door? And then repeated? A paranormal event has just occurred Mr. Chavez.

Also, I feel like often times the most supernaturally tormented people are those who would otherwise have nothing to do with such ‘garbage.’ Many of those haunted by beings, ghosts, or spirits don’t even believe in them. Exequiel is one of those people…or at least he was.

Jesus in Window?

walterjensen1951 — Sat, 05 Feb 2005 20:27:30 +0000

Ridiculous how some people can create something out of absolutely nothing. This lady Nicole is receiving ‘signs’ alright…signs that she should be in a home, and not that home. I don’t see a damn thing in the window. Maybe it’s just my old eyes, but this story is just ridiculous.
