Dad's Answering Machine Message from Beyond - EVP
Rate this encounter:
Margaret Houck, Knoxville, Iowa, April 1999,

I received a message on my answering machine a few months after my
father passed. The night the message was left, I kept thinking that I
needed to pick up someone by 5:15 PM, so I left at 5:00 PM. The
recording occurred at 5:15. If I had been home, I would of probably hung
up the phone and it wouldn't have been recorded.
I was in such deep mourning after my father passed that when I would cry at
night, my back would arch up off the bed. I've dealt with people dying
many times since I am a registered nurse. I accepted death as a part of
life and knew that the patients had an afterlife. But when it was my
dad... it was different. When I listened to the message several times, I
could smell his distinct body scent. Sometime later, my door chime began
playing the Westminster chimes, which it is incapable of doing. My dad
was a jokester! He had my husband and I running all over the house
trying to figure it out. My husband kept pushing the doorbell to try and
make it do it again, but it only happened when dad wanted to have some
fun. I know I hear his voice under the "wet" sounds, but others are
dumbfounded by the recording -- they can't hear a voice. I believe that
my father had to use a lot of energy just so he could call and comfort
me that he is still around. Of course I miss him still but I talk to him
as if he is right next to me. He proved to me that he does still exist.
Does anyone have access to any sound filtering software so the
message can be understood better?
