It is not uncommon for stories, such as this one, to come under some scrutiny regarding the veracity of the content. With that in mind, it is important to the members of Redneck Voodoo that you feel confident that what you are reading is not fictional.
When dealing with the supernatural, there is usually a fair amount of stress involved. Therefore, even with the high-tech recording devices we employ, there can be some confusion with the context of certain words and events during an investigation. To illustrate this point, I will take certain parts of this story and break it down for clarity sake.
For instance;
1) Ryan Beerly is indeed an ordained reverend in Universal Life Church. I made mention that it is a, well-respected organization. Now, overall, this may not be the case, since all you have to do is ask for ordination through the internet. But, the case remains that some members of Redneck Voodoo respect the fact that he has the guts to tell people about it. OK, I do, so in our eyes, that makes it the truth. See where I'm going with this?
2) Chuck is not really a Science Guy. But we call him one, so that makes him one. There is no law, nor is there any law pending which prevents us from doing so. Therefore, he is a Science Guy.
3)Andy didn't technically speak in tongues, though we all agree that sometime during the evening, the words; tongues; Yaga; and Gaga were uttered at one time or another during the investigation. Quite a bit of alcohol gets consumed during these outings and many phrases resembling the speaking of tongues are uttered during the course of said outings. Since there is no scientific consensus regarding this subject we cannot be sure that said utterances are effective. But we think they are so... maybe. You don't know either.
4) It can't be proven that we heard running across the ceiling but we did hear noises and said noises could have just as easily been footsteps as anything else. Again, prove it wasn't.
5)You might ask: Did Chuck really say, "Let's put this bastard to bed?" I know for a fact that the word; bastard, was used more than once during this investigation. I also think it was Chuck who used it. He also said, "bed". It's not hard to imagine he used them together, although, he may have been talking about Andy.
6) I, personally was called out on whether or not Chuck flinched when a door slammed. A door was slammed and I did not see him flinch. Case closed.
7)Did our lights all go out? Yes, at one time or another.
8) Were we at anytime truly scared? Yes, Andy was truly scared shitless most of the night. We even have him on record during an EVP session, saying so.
9) We did find several unidentifiable masses in the house. While I will admit, none of them turned into small ghost-children, there is nothing to say they couldn't have. As a matter of fact, I suspect they probably did after we left. Therefore, a modicum of creative license should be allowed. If you weren't there, you have no idea.
In conclusion, This is science, just not an exact science. So please keep these explanations in mind when you question the truth of this story or any future stories. We are out there for you, doing the dirty work so you don't have to. You can sleep at night because of us. Would someone like me, lie to you? Of course not.
So with that in mind let me just say, You're Welcome! :)
