| Harper Hill church and cemetery has a very strange and unusual past. It's said that the old church is haunted by the minister who murdered his family and then himself many, many years ago. We have found some evidence that proves that the stories associated with Harper Hill may indeed be true. Even the oldest residence of Notasulga, Alabama don't remember the church being in working order. Although many of the local law enforcement officers have had calls from person's reporting vandalism at this location. Even a few of the local police officers will tell you that they have seen weird things at Harper Hill. |

| The Legend of Harper Hill The Legend of Harper Hill is said to have taken place more than 100 years ago. It's said that the minister of this quite little church murdered his entire family and then committed suicide. For years people have reported seeing strange apparitions in the window's and even the sounds of a preacher, preaching his sermon to his congregation. There are tales of devil worship taking place in this location as well as, vandals and trespassers have taken there toll on this little one room church. PLEASE NOTE THIS LEGEND IS NOT BASED ON FACT BUT LOCAL FOLKLORE WITHIN THE TALLASEE AREA. These are alleged stories about Harper Hill. |

In my personal opinion Harper Hill is very much
haunted, and our team has a lot of evidence to back
that up. From personal experiences, EVP's, and
photo's. Our very first visit to Harper Hill came in
the fall of 07 myself and Cassie Clark traveled to the
location with the help of our Notasulga contact Jody
Gann. As we approached the location the air changes
pretty rapidly. This could be do to some altitude
changes in the area. The Church itself sits atop a
high hill off a beaten up county road. Our first
experience there was just of feeling kinda sick, and
not wanting to be there. Our second trip we took
several members to the location and part-timers and
had an experience some members will never forget.
Upon arriving we set up our equipment and began
our investigation. Since the area is small and
condemned going inside the building is OUT of the
question. (THIS LOCATION IS DANGEROUS, WE
DO NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE ENTER THIS
BUILDING)

| The evidence of some truth about stories told about Harper Hill can be found right on the headstones. We have no evidence that the person's listed on these headstones are the actual people in the legend. However the details in the story tell of the preacher's wife's body not being found until several years after her murder. As far as we know there has never been an official death date listed for this woman. It's said that when her remains where found that her body was badly decomposed that there was no way to say exactly when she died. The Freemason's symbol on the headstone is also odd in that the Freemason's organization is a very private society in itself. I have no details on any lodges local to this area. This person must have been a member of a non-local Freemason lodge. Again these are details to a story. We have no factual evidence that there is any truth to this other then what we have investigated ourselves. |
| Co-Founder: Cassie Clark, Part Time investigators: Denise, Jody, and guest investigators totaling about 12 people witnessed a strange sound. After walking to the front of the church while shooting video A very loud and tremendous "BOOM!" scared every investigator present back into there cars with the exception of a few of us who where unlucky enough to not witness this. Verification of the event was easy since all of the people standing in the front of the church where scared to death. They had witnessed something without a doubt. As we gathered our equipment and started back to our vehicles 3 of our Junior Investigators reported hearing "singing" amazed but some what reluctant to believe them, we drove home for the night. The next day as we reviewed the evidence from the night before. Just as we thought we had not captured anything associated with the personal experiences the night before but we did capture the voices reported by our Junior Investigators that sounded like singing.

| Update: Dec 30, 2008 this photo was captured while on a training exercise at Harper Hill Church and cemetery. Possibly one of our best paranormal photo's we can not explain the face captured in the shadow's behind our junior investigator. |
