This historic Paper mill was bulit in the 1800's. by the Rev. Elijah Craig (ca. 1740–1808), founder of Georgetown, as the first industrial park west of the Alleghenies. It was also the site of the first papermill in the region and one of the first production sites for Kentucky Bourbon.
Investigators Notes:
First walking up to the building you can still see the old painted sign on the side of the building still holding on after the many years winds, snow, rain and what ever else mother nature threw at this building. Rusted silos and old delipitated smaller buildings stand next to the impressive looking old papermill that sites in the dark. As I walked in this building with my team and the owner, you first off see one of the old machines from when this building was in operation, you could almost see and hear the employees of the past working with the large machines producing paper for the town. The building has three levels and a basement.. the top floor is filled with large machines and three deep silos. truly impressive. While we listened to the owner as he told us of the claims of unknown acitivites, a figure was seen standing behind the large paper press than quickly darted away.. I asked where all my invesigators were and the owner and to my suprise they all were behind me going over the dangers of the three large deep silos..
During our Investigation, Doug, Jake and I witnessed at the same time a large shadow of a man run across the top of the three deep silos when we were at the 3rd floor, heard heavy walking like somebody was wearing heavy work boots. you also get the impression of somebody standing next you or watching you.. but of course on some occasions this could just be the mind playing tricks on you, but it can be questionable when you feel the warmth of breath hit the side of your face or on the back of your neck. Bottom line, this location was indeed very interesting, and warrents a follow up investigation.
