Third Bridge6/28/2022 Good morning!
The other night my team and I visited Third Bridge, in Elbert County. We have had some great hunts there in the past and have caught strange EVP's that included whispering, drumming sounds, and an unidentifiable snarl. Unfortunately, before we could transfer the files, the equipment bricked and all the data was lost. So we ventured forth to start anew and hope for some new experiences. Upon arrival, you can hear the oil beam pump chugging steadily in the background. It was a new moon and the environment was perfect. The beam pump is a distinct, patterned sound that could debunk the claims of drumming- except as you'll hear about below. We parked near a farm house, just off in the shoulder off the bridge end. In the past, the team and I have experienced strange phenomenon. What sounds like several different cadence drums were heard increasing in volume as though either getting closer and faster, or simply louder. They sounded nothing like the steady beam bump that's typical in the silence. In that same visit we experienced a very soft, white light barely flickering in a nearby field. We saw it flicker so softly a handful of times before it disappeared. It was too soft and almost translucent to be a flashlight, and not a consistent flicker to be an electrical box of any variety. When we returned during broad daylight, the spot we noted the flickering was barren, vacant field. There was nothing to account for the light we saw. Step forward to this investigation. It was a quiet night. We heard an occasional sheep/goat bleat, but it was otherwise quiet. You could hear the steady beam pump in the distance. We set up an IR camera and audio recordings. We brought our KII meter and we began. We didn't catch nary a whisper. We were contacted by a passing Sheriff who indicated that where we had been doing our outings was, in fact, Second Bridge. Despite it being labeled as Third on maps and being "the popular, fun hang out", according to the sheriff, was, in fact, not the actual Third Bridge. He gave us directions and we relocated to a dusty road, more secluded and set away from the typical cars passing by. Upon arrival, we listened for the beam pump and couldn't hear it. Before exiting our vehicle we were suddenly met with the sound of several drums, varying in their rhythms, speed, and intensity. They would sound as though they were moving back and forth, and getting louder or quieter. We could not debunk these as the common oil pump. We could not discern what may be creating the noise, until they slowly seemed to fade and then you could hear a steady chugging from the oil pump. Not wanting to disturb the silence, we remained in the vehicle and set up the KII meter along with continued audio recording. It had been quiet all evening. In the distance we suddenly saw a beam of light. At first, it appeared to be car headlights, but they came from the middle of a field and quickly disappeared. They burst again in another direction and seemed to flicker and start coming toward us. It was getting brighter. Then the light died. It appeared again a distance away, in a different direction, and was flickering. It died again. We saw it a handful more, in different places and sometimes it flickered. Then we didn't see it anymore. What could have been a flashlight wielded by someone would have been traveling a decent distance in a short time. It was odd, and I couldn't say what it was. After a while of recording the silence, the KII meter flickered momentarily. This grabbed our attention and we watched and asked questions to silence; no responses. Then, very abruptly, the KII meter red-lined. It held at full range and then receded. It was quiet again. We asked if someone was with us. If they wanted us to leave, we asked they make the KII meter light up again. The KII meter immediately red-lined and held there for a strong few seconds. We made true on our word and packed up and headed out. Review of the video and audio of the area was unremarkable. The drumming noises we heard were hardly audible of the audio recording. The only oddity of the evening was just shortly before the KII meter red-lined, an electrical buzzing and interference sound was heard on the audio recording. It was very short and only popped up the once, but it was odd. It was a quiet evening with unusual experiences. On to the next!
