Memorable Quotes from Richard Lawson
2 quotesUnderstanding Poltergeist Intrusions vs. Classic Hauntings
Diane
How long have you been investigating haunted houses?
Dr. Lesh
Mrs. Freeling, the determination as to whether your home is haunted is not very easy. I -- what I meant to say was, it might very well be a poltergeist intrusion instead of a classic haunting.

Steve
There's a difference?
Ryan
It's electrical. You can smell the charge.
Dr. Lesh
Poltergeist are usually associated with an individual. Hauntings seem to be connected with an area, a house usually.
Marty
Poltergeist disturbances are of fairly short duration, perhaps a couple of months. Hauntings can go on for -- years.
Diane
Are you telling me that all of this could just suddenly end at any time?
Dr. Lesh
Yes, it could, unless it's a haunting. But hauntings don't usually revolve around living people.
Diane
Then we don't have much time, Dr. Lesh, because my daughter is alive somewhere inside this house.

Recording Unexplained Phenomena in Poltergeist
Ryan
Mr. Freeling, we'll record any psychotronic energy or event.
Dr. Lesh
Yes, Ryan photographed an extraordinary episode on a case in Redlands.
Ryan
That's right. It was a child's toy, a very small Matchbox vehicle. Rolled seven feet across a linoleum surface. The duration of the event was seven hours.
Steve
Seven hours for what?
Ryan
For the vehicle to complete the distance. Of course, this would never register on the naked eye. But I have it recorded on a time-lapse camera. It's fantastic.
Steve
