![]() Jackie Hernandez would eventually move out of the house after the activity became so dangerous that she felt her children were in danger. But there was a plus to the attack, Gary snapped off a photo at the precise moment of the entity yanking Jeff into the rafters. It was then that Gary explained that he actually had to pull Jeff off a nail in the rafter and if he hadn’t been there Jeff might have been strangled to death. ![]() It was then that they all noticed an old cord wrapped around Jeffs neck. Somehow able to pull himself free, Jeff and Gary exited the attic. Something had grabbed Jeff by the neck and pulled him into the rafters. Conrad down below with Hernandez heard a loud moan, it was Jeff. Jeff would pay for it, as he was attacked more brutally than the first encounter. Arriving around 1am, Jeff and friend Gary decided they should investigate the attic again. The activity was escalating and getting more violent. And this wasn’t the worst of the activity.Ī month later on September 4th, they would be called back by a frantic Jackie Hernandez. But as he began shooting a foul stench began to permeate the attic and without warning he was shoved by an invisible hand into the rafters. Jeff decided to see if he could get a couple more shots before leaving. Continuing his search he found the surprisingly undamaged lens behind the trap door to the attic. As he searched the empty attic he found an old dusty grape box, which when opened contained his camera, but strangely no lens. Later he would venture back up into the attic in hopes of retrieving the camera. Expectedly, quite shaken he bolted from the attic. Not long after crawling through the small hole in the ceiling, Jeff’s camera was ripped from his hands into the darkness of the attic. So before they left that evening Conrad suggested that Wheatcraft check out the attic. Hernandez had told them stories of flying lamps, oozing blood-like gelatin from the walls, an apparition of a decaying old man, an invisible force that would hold her down as though trying to smother her, as well as a floating disembodied head in her attic. Barry Taff, formerly with UCLA’s parapsychology lab and principal investigator of the now famous “Entity” case, would be witness to some of the most compelling and disturbing paranormal activity. On the night of August 8, 1989, Barry Conrad along with friend and photographer Jeff Wheatcraft, and Dr. ‘Jackie Hernandez’ during the investigation Could this be merely some residual from Jackie’s presence there or was there really a bonifide malevolent spirit?Ĭlick for video - The Jackie Hernandez Case According to the owners, no subsequent tenants stayed there for longer than 6 months. ![]() Also, as Taff found out later, Jackie’s house continued to be reported as haunted long after she moved out. ![]() The unexplained lights are certainly odd and so would be the reports of male apparitions from witnesses. However, there are problems with the theory that this was strictly a haunting brought on by living subject. It seemed that anyone who might be perceived as threat to Jackie’s relationship with Barry ended up on the end of a violent attack by the poltergeist. Taff began to believe that she was creating the phenomena unconsciously because of her emotional problems and what became a strong romantic attachment to Barry Conrad. The events in the house grew stronger and even followed Jackie from place to place. Beihm was able to get Wheatcraft down before he was strangled to death, and he also took some of the few photographs of an alleged ghost attack. While the two were looking around, a clothesline suddenly wrapped itself around Wheatcraft’s neck and tried hanging him from a nail in a rafter. Wheatcraft went to investigate the attic again, but this time took another person, Gary Beihm, with him. The team came for a second visit in September. When one of the photographers, Jeff Wheatcraft, went up to the attic to take some pictures, an invisible force violently grabbed at his camera and threw it to the ground. ![]() The team kept hearing sounds in the attic, “like a 200 foot pound rat running around”, according to Taff. This was the result of an attack by the entity Photographer Jeff Wheatcraft hanging from a cord attached to a nail in the attic. ![]()
