History of the Location

This commercial property, located in Schofield, Wisconsin, is approximately 3,800 sq. ft. on a 19,602 sq. ft. lot. It is currently leased to a professional services provider.

Previous Uses Include:

• A social and human services organization supporting individuals in achieving fuller, more independent lives.

• A secure visitation and supervision provider for children, ensuring safe interaction with non-custodial parents in a monitored setting:

“Our program provides a vital opportunity for children separated from their families to maintain a meaningful connection with their non-custodial parents while a permanency plan is crafted. Under the guidance of professionally trained staff, children and parents can share quality time in a safe and nurturing environment. Staff offer education, observation, documentation, and intervention as needed.”

• Believed to have also operated as a laundromat in earlier years.

Property Development Timeline (from aerial and historical records):

• 1950s: Appears as vacant land, likely owned by a local resident.

• Mid/late 1950s–early 1960s: A narrow rectangular building constructed.

• Between 1986–1998: Building doubled in width.

• Present: Structure has remained largely unchanged since the 1990s.

Wisconsin public records offer limited further detail. Newspaper archives note job fairs held here in 2003–2004. Historic articles also reference individuals connected to the property, but no direct link to current activity has been confirmed.

Reported Paranormal Activity

• Glimpses of a black figure crossing from the conference room into the hall.

• A cleaning crew incident where one helper reportedly said “There are bad things. I no stay,” then left and did not return.

• Same cleaner later reported being tapped on the shoulder three times in the bathroom, followed by motion-sensor lights switching on/off at 4-minute intervals (normally set to 15 minutes).

• Activity is more frequent when the witness is alone, but also occurs when others are present.

• Most events occur during the day, centered in the witness’s office but also in other areas.

• Both physical incidents occurred in the same area of the kitchen

• Frequent reports of hearing indistinct conversations

• Voices perceived as multiple people speaking, though words are unclear

• Client reported seeing a person inside the building

• Client attempted interaction, believing the figure was a staff member

• At the time of the sighting, the witness was the only person present in the building

Investigation Summary

Date/Time: Sunday, March 29, 2026 — starting at 10:00 AM

Weather: Sunny, 54°F

Investigators Present: Patrick Brazier, Jim Coscio, Shawn Blashka, Beth Brown, Sarah Kasper, David Zuke

Client Presence: Client not present; WPRS had keys for full access.

• Wireless DVR System, Cellphone Cameras, EMF Detectors, REM Pod, K-II Meter, Ambient Thermometer, Digital Recorder, Infrared Camera, Full Spectrum Camera, Vibration Sensors (Cat Balls), Trail Camera, Zoom H5studio Audio Recorder, Polaroid Camera.

Camera Placement:

Camera 1: Waiting Room
Camera 2: Front Office and Hallway
Camera 3: Dylan’s Office
Camera 4: Bathroom
Camera 5: Kitchen and Breakroom
Camera 6: Lynn’s Office
Camera 7: Basement (Trail Cam by Shawn 12:05)

Equipment Placement:

• Cat Balls: Waiting Room, Counter Table in Kitchen, Lynn’s Office, Dylan’s Office

• Trail Camera: Basement

• REM Pods: Bathroom and Reception Area

• Vibration Detector: Basement Staircase

• SLS Camera: Breakroom Area

• EMF Activity Noted In: Lynn’s Office, Basement, Breakroom/Kitchen

Property Layout:

Single-level commercial building with a small empty basement. Located near the Wisconsin River. One half of the building is occupied by the client, the other is vacant.

Environmental Readings:

• Inconsistent indoor temperature, with significant changes between the left and right side of the building.

• Significantly elevated EMF in two locations:

1. Kitchen — Throughout and along the far outside wall.

2. Large office space next door to the kitchen.

• Three sensitive investigators reported static sensations in these locations before readings were taken, as well as continued headaches throughout the investigation. EMF spikes in the kitchen appeared linked to a utility pole just outside the building.

Investigation Log And Observations

• 1:05 – Bathroom REM Pod activity observed. Initial trigger noted.

• 1:25 – Bathroom REM Pod triggered again. Multiple activations observed in the same location.

• 2.00 – New batteries in the Zoom H5studio recorder died after 1 1/2hr usage.

• 3:23 – Bathroom REM Pod activity continued while vibration sensor in the basement was audibly activating. Multiple triggers noted during this period.

• 3:29 - Continued Bathroom REM Pod activity.

• 3:33 - Continued Bathroom REM Pod activity.

• 3:37 - Camera 3 recorded a haze or glare anomaly

• 3:50 - EVP session conducted in the front rooms.

• Additional Note
  Bathroom REM Pod battery was noted as low during investigation which may have affected equipment consistency.

• 4:45pm - End of Session.

Initial Observations

• Multiple Bathroom REM Pod activations were recorded throughout the investigation, but this was likely due to the low battery performance.

• Vibration sensor in basement continues to sound without known cause. Theory: The buildings’ electrical issues, that appear to lack appropriate grounding, may be the cause.

• Visual anomaly reported on Camera 3 in the form of haze or glare debunked as sun flare from window.

• EMF spikes were noted in multiple locations including Lynn’s Office, Basement, and Breakroom.

• EVP sessions conducted but requires full review of recorded audio.

Evidence Review Status

Audio Review: Pending
Video Review: Pending
Photographic Review: Pending

Conclusion

To be completed following full analysis of all collected evidence including audio, video, and photographic data.

Additional Investigator Experiences (Unverifiable)

• Patrick: In the kitchen area at the back of the building, experienced pins-and-needles from hands to elbows when collecting the keys mid-week and also on arrival for the investigation. This developed into a headache that seemed to increase whenever entering the kitchen and back of the building.

• Beth: Developed headache and oppressive sensation in kitchen, recurring with each visit to that space.

• Jim: Felt stabbing sensations in his temple area.

Historical Correlation

Roughly three weeks after the investigation, historical research revealed that in the 1970s, a utility worker fell from a pole next to the property and was instantly killed by 7,000-volt transformers. Newspaper archives confirm this incident.

The kitchen area of the building was at one time used as a Laundromat, which connects to several investigators feelings of static-electricity.
