Ghost Hunt Results - First, John Austin and the team from G.h.o.s.t. will be presenting the findings of the Foster Town House ghost hunt which took place on November 11, 2011.  On that cold night (49 degrees), GHOST investigators blanketed the building with infrared motion detectors, audio recorders, electromagnetic field gauges, and temperature sensors in the hopes of capturing some evidence of paranormal activity.  Tonight we will learn what they found.  in the meantime you may read the Observer article from 11/30/2011.
