Paranormal plunge
Matthew "Sandman" Kelley of Markleysburg will undertake a paranormal investigation later this year that never has been attempted when he and his crew travel to the spot that the RMS Titantic sank nearly 100 years ago.
Kelley is a member of Society of the D.E.A.D. (Direct Evidence After Death) paranormal society based in Fayette County. He was hoping to travel to the site to commemorate the 98th anniversary of the sinking in April, but weather concerns have pushed the trip back to July.
The trip will begin July 10 and stretch until July 28, and the crew will leave Nova Scotia and spend four days out on the water at the site of the sinking in the Atlantic Ocean.
Kelley said the investigation would include a day with a paranormal research session, with the crew located directly above the site where the Titanic sank. He said the crew would collect EVPs, which are electronic voice phenomenon believed to be voices of spirits that cannot be heard by the human ear. The crew also plans to perform a side-sonar scan image of the sunken luxury liner.
When EVPs are collected, there are Class A or Class B recordings, with the Class A being interactive and the Class B being residual, or the equivalent of hearing a tape recording being replayed from another time, Kelley explained.
"Great trauma leaves residual impressions," Kelley said.
Kelley said he doesn't expect any Class A voices from the sinking site.
"It would be a sad thing if spirits were still there," Kelley said.
Advertisement Kelley said the sunken ship is deteriorating rapidly.
The ship sank 98 years ago on the morning of April 15, 1912, and of a total of 2,223 people aboard, only 706 survived.
The number of lifeboats on board the ship was only enough for about half of the passengers.
Kelley said the trip to the site also would include a memorial service in which 1,533 white roses will be put into the water.
A documentary will be filmed during the expedition, and Kelley said he is hoping to get it aired on the History Channel.
Kelley said the idea of traveling to the site of the ship's sinking came to him about a year and a half ago as he was trying to come up with the idea of doing something in the paranormal field that hadn't been done before.
In addition to himself, Kelley said he has collected the following people in the paranormal field to make the trip: Chris Dedman, David Burnsworth, Megan Riggar, Kenny Riggar, Gregg Cable, Robert Davis, Bishop James Long, Serenity Moore begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting begin_of_the_skype_highlighting end_of_the_skype_highlighting, Nicole Leader, Christel Brooks, James Sexton, Brooke Sexton, Chris Maggard, Tom Carr, Liesha Lawson, Karen Miles, Diane Marie Goff, Ash Blackwell and Brian Clune.
The paranormal research group Society of the D.E.A.D. was formed in April 2002 with the goal of unlocking the mysteries of the paranormal with an eye on science rather than superstition, Kelley said.
Society of the DEAD also has traveled to a prison in Mansfield, Ohio, that was featured in the movie "Shawshank Redemption."
