Speak and you shall be heard.

An update of sorts. I went by the Meux Home on my lunch break. Before I go any further I will give a brief description for the 1 person who reads my blog and doesn't know Fresno (yes Meghan I am looking at you). The Meux Home is an old Victorian style house located in Downtown Fresno and is over 100 years old. Absolutely beautiful home, especially when it's decorated during Christmas. I had heard stories for years regarding that it's haunted, most had to do with little children. As I was saying, I went there on my lunch hour and actually screwed up enough courage to ring the bell. The tourguide lady asked me if I wanted a tour and I said no and asked if I could ask some questions regarding the place. I told her who I was and what I do and gave her a card. She was very polite and told me she hadn't seen anything since she has been there but to talk to one of the head people there as she has been involved for years. She gave me the woman's phone number and said if anything had happened that she would know. I asked her if she was receptive to these things and was told yes. So I thanked her for her time and promised to visit soon as I hadn't been there in over a decade.

I called the woman and left a message and figured she wouldn't call back. Well this morning I recieved a call from the woman and she was very nice and polite with me. Told me she hadn't seen anything, but remembers someone saying they saw a member of the family but didn't know if they were joking or not. She invited me to come visit sometime and talk with her about the place and mentioned that she will bring up my group at the next board meeting to see if we can do an investigation. I really doubt they will let us, as I am sure they don't want the public to know they are haunted but you never know. But I did talk to someone about this and got a positive response. I already have more that I want to talk to, just some are an hour drive from my house so I am weary. I would rather call but that hasn't been productive as of yet. Only time will tell.
