Dyer lane hauntings - The Conclusion

We ended our investigation after a chat with a local Sheriff. Actually I interviewed him after he established who we were and what we were doing. He actually seemed interested and more than forthcoming with information. He stated that he had been patrolling this area for about 20 years. I asked if he had seen anything strange on his patrols. He replied only the folks out here looking for ghosts, kids getting high or looking for a secluded make-out spot. He did give me details about the murder in the '90s, exactly where it took place and what had happened. He bid a good evening and went on his way.

Our findings;

EVPs: none that could not be dismissed as wind, background noise(clothes, leaves ruffling etc.)
I did capture a coyote howl (which sounds nothing like they do on TV) and a male Pheasant cackle, could this have been the evil laugh the others captured?

Photographic: Again nothing that couldn't be dismissed as completely normal. Orbs could have been and probably were dust, bugs or the flash refracting off of natural material.

Video: Again nothing.

Dyer lane is far from deserted and seems to be a right of passage for local teens and us old folks ghost hunting. There is lots of graffiti saying R.I.P and a name, swastikas, a few KKK symbols and some gang tags. But thats the creepiest symbols we found.

While I will not dismiss what others have seen or heard, I can't honestly say that Dyer Lane is haunted. An investigator on a website claims he was covered with orbs. We were continually being pelted by bugs while out there. The "shadow people" I would dismiss as tree trunks, shadows and a good imagination. The sounds, if you don't spend much time outdoors at night, the sounds can be frightening to city folk. People hear and see what they want, in the shadows.

If you decide to venture out to Dyer lane, keep your mind open. You may see something that we missed or it may be just a drive down a county road in the dark.
