Soundslide: The Haunting on Hodge Street

Kelvin VanDussen, 7-year-old son of homeowner Suzanne Draper, said of the attic, “Don’t go up there, there’s monsters up there!,” Saturday at their recently purchased home in Lansing. The family is renovating before moving in and was told there is an evil spirit haunting the house.

The day after closing on the home, Draper’s husband, Michael VanDussen, was told by the previous owner he was pushed out of a window by an evil spirit. After experiencing unexplainable things, Draper decided to call the Michigan Paranormal Research Association, or MPRA, for an investigation and house cleansing.

Founder and director Samantha Harris, assistant director Kyle Gask-Wilson and Michael Best made up the team of MPRA investigators that responded to Draper’s request. Using equal parts science and spirituality, the team performed a paranormal investigation on the house and followed with a house cleansing and blessing.

“We pride ourselves on not only doing an investigation, but also offering the client a solution,” Harris said.
