OUR FINDINGS...............
We arrived around 8pm with a group of nine people. We broke
out the equipment, set up the cameras, and split up. Some going
upstairs, the others choosing the infamous basement, and one
member decided to hang out in the kitchen and chat with the home
owners. Not even 20-30 minutes into the investigation, a member
of the group upstairs reported hearing five or six keys of a piano
being struck. Upon immediate inspection, everyone was
accounted for, and had not left their perspective groups. The
piano in the house downstairs appeared to be locked up tight
with the covering over the keys being shut, and a "Do not touch"
sign in place. Was this possibly just a trick of the ears?
Around the same time as the piano was heard upstairs, the team
in the basement was making a slow but steady EMF sweep. The
room proved to be both problematic and interesting. The wiring in
the basement presented it's obvious problems, setting off the
meters while trying to take readings. That being said, it is worth
noting that several spots were making the EMFs fluctuate, and
showed no consistency whatsoever. Also, at one point, while
getting a particular EMF reading, the question was posed "Is
there a spirit here?" at which time the reading abruptly stopped.
However, this could be coincidental, as EMF readings in this
basement have since been found to often fluctuate.
Our only possible photo evidence has been debunked by Kodak
themselves, and can be found on our false positives page. It is the
"orb" that appears to be moving through the basement of the
house. That just goes to show, orb photos are completely
worthless, even ones such as this.
We did happen to catch some video we could not explain. This
ironically enough, is a ball of light floating through the air. What
makes it special is that it was shot on a non infrared camera, in
total darkness. Infrared (nightshot) is known for picking up
moving dust orbs on video, but this is not the case here. Check
out our video section to see this.
An EVP was also caught during this investigation. You can find it
in our EVPs section if you would like to listen to it. It seems to
be answering one of our investigators' questions, although which
one is worth arguing about. It is up to the viewer/listener to
determine if these bits of media are evidence of the paranormal at
Indianapolis' Hannah Mansion. We have not made up our minds
yet.....

Hannah House is the kind of place that some just look
at and say, "Now that place has got to be haunted!" If
you explore local legend, you'll hear from many that it
most definitely is.
The Hannah House was built in 1858 by Alexander
Hannah. Hannah was a prominent figure in the
community in many ways. A strong moral belief of
Hannah's was that taking a man as a slave was
wrong, and even went so far as to make the house a
stop on the Underground Railroad. Hannah's cellar
doubled as a safe haven for escaped slaves.
As legend has it, one tragic night, a lantern that was
lighting the basement was knocked over. Many of the
hiding slaves were killed very quickly. The fire was
extinguished before major damage was done to the
house, but for those who perished it was too late.
Since then, there have been reports of spectral slaves
hiding in the darkness of the cellar. Also, a ghostly
older woman has been reported roaming a second
floor bedroom. The ghost of what some claim to be
Hannah himself has been reported as well.
These stories are intriguing, but proof is better. With
that in mind, we set out to try and capture evidence of
any spirits of times past that remain at their
former...(or is that current?) home at 3801 Madison
Ave.
