History of Sipsey City Jail and Town Hall
Our investigation of the Sipsey, Alabama Jail and Town Hall proved to be more then we bargained for. With several reports of
activity inside the jail and main lobby of the city hall, our investigators had our work cut out for us. Upon interviews we learned
that even though the town of Sipsey may be small it's not without it's fair share of ghostly visitors. The jail has been inactive for
several years but a few inmates never left. Reports of the ghostly figure of a woman said to make her way from the jail through
the main hall way and into the bathroom has been seen. Also footsteps and bangs coming from the attic, and reports of
objects in motion especially in the jail area are common.
Investigation of the Sipsey City Jail and Town Hall
Activity seemed to pick up almost right away once we pursued our investigation. The attic seemed to be the worst place in
the whole establishment. With a number of sounds and EMF readings, our team ruled out faulty wiring inside the attic. All wires
shielded gave off no EMF. Random spikes in areas with no wiring seemed to be quit frequent in the attic location. Inside the
jail was a terrible feeling of negativity. Seeing as how it is a jail and more than likely has several layers of paranormal residue,
and criminals association with the area. Knowing this we set inside the cells for several minutes provoking and asking very
demanding questions. Inside the 2nd cell there was a strong sense of someone else inside the cell besides Co-Founder
Cassie Clark and myself (Founder Faith Serafin) We asked for proof and I received a poke in the left shoulder. Thinking it may
have been a bug attempting to bit through my vest. I did check and nothing was there. Also upon investigating in the jail area
we experienced a motion sensor which appeared the have been "thrown" off a water cooler, landing in the floor with enough
force to break open the battery compartment and dislodge all 4 AA batteries. Not a coincidence being as how this is the
same location where the chief of police experienced a germ-x bottle fly off a shelf in his direction.
I have to say with the evidence gathered in this jail, I'd hate to be the inmate staying overnight. Soon to be housing inmates
again. Hopefully if breaking the law isn't enough to scare them straight, spending the night in the Sipsey City Jail would
definitely turn the hardest criminal into a scardy cat.

Video and Photo Evidence
This video was shot during the time Director Faith Serafin
felt a slight push on her back in reference to her
questions.
While this video doesn't show the actual event where a
motion sensor was thrown from a water cooler inside the
Sipsey City Jail. You can hear it fall and a former
investigator of APRT inform us that it was not knocked
down by one of our investigators.
