LANETTE BAKER: Ask and ye shall recieve

Lanette is the Missouri representative of the Centre for Fortean Zoology, and when she sent us the following story with an apology that it had nothing to do with cryptozoology, we grinned and told her that we would save it up for our hallowe'en special, which we have done.

In fact, if the truth were known, it was the arrival of Lanette's story that gave us the idea for the Hallowe'en special. So it is all your fault honey :)




Upon a recent paranormal investigation we went to one of the oldest cemeteries in the Cape Girardeau MO area. There are several 'hauntings' in the area and due to the past history of the place we are wondering if many of them are connected in some way.

We went to Old Lorimier Cemetery, got there about 3:30 and found out the place closed at 3:00... go figure... So we called the people in charge, explained what we wanted to do and asked could someone let us in. They said they would not be able to that night but would set up another time of us and told us we could take pictures from outside the fence and warned us about motion sensors in the place. (glad it was mentioned because there were some areas I could of fit through) *grin*

We walked around and took a few pictures until it got dark, then once it was dark we were able to 'feel' something and knew it was time to definitely take some pictures.

The ones I am submitting were taken in a row, after the fist one with 'nothing' I asked if anyone would like to have their picture taken... I have circled what appeared besides the mist, which I did not see while taking the pictures.

There were several more pictures that are of huge interest, some have been sent to the historic society. At this point I can no longer find the large cat that I had found markings of and I am trying to find a cave where a 'hairy beast' has been seen. It has a name that probably only the older folks know and I cannot find anyone who knows where the heck the cave is. So creature-hunting is at bay and paranormal-hunting is what is going on until I get my cave info.
