Case: # 2012-21
Location: Allegan Lodge, Allegan, Michigan, USA
Claims:
In August of 2012, CHAPS visited Allegan Lodge located in Allegan, Michigan. Built in 1909 this building was primarily used as a hospital for some 60 years. The Elks bought the building with it being used as a conference center. Through the years employees have reported numerous sightings, noises and apparitions. Children have been heard laughing and footsteps have been heard. There was an incident that a plumber reported of a pipe moving through the air on its own. The plumber left the building and refuses to return.
Investigation:
The team split into 2 smaller teams for this investigation. EMF levels were pretty stable through the entire building, with the exception of a smoke detector located in the basement that gave off the chart readings. This smoke detector was located in a spot that many claims had been made. Neither team had any significant experiences while in the building.
Conclusion:
Due to lack of evidence or experiences, we cannot claim that this building is haunted. A return visit would be needed to state any different.
