Background
We were contacted by the General Manager of a hotel that also had a bar and grill on the property. The reason for the contact was that their security camera in the bar and grill captured what appeared to be a floating head in the closed restaurant. We video taped off of the security system's monitor and the video is below:

Investigation
We were given complete access to the closed bar and grill and determined where the apparition appeared on the security video. This gave us the main location where we would focus on our investigation. There was no other reported activity at the location prior to us arriving. However, after talking to several staff members during our equipment setup, there actually has been other events witnessed. They are as follows:

Seeing a small boy in the kitchen area
Seeing a woman in a gown, moving between conference rooms
Objects, such as bowls, moving in the kitchen

During the investigation, all of the investigators were seeing shadows and movement near the doors to the kitchen. We were sitting at tables near where the floating head was seen in the video and the kitchen doors where approximately 20 feet away. It is in this area that I was video taping when I captured the following on video:

Audio
We were able to record several EVPs. None of which seemed to be direct responses to our questioning. Most were recorded while we were having conversations.

"Hi"


"Lujan". Andy is talking and in the background, you'll hear what sounds like, "Luan" which is a common surname in New Mexico.


"Yes". Andy is asking, "Even if I..." and the reply is "yes". Slightly amplified.


"Hiii.." You hear a drawn out and quite frankly, a creepy..."Hiiii" and then Andy saying, "You know coffee stunts your growth?"


"Where's the two?"



Conclusion
During the investigation, all of us witnessed shadows moving in the restuarant area. This is also supported by the video that captured the moving shadow. The EVPs that were recorded are all Class A and are from a male. One could make the connection of the male apparition captured on the security camera and the male voiced EVPs as being from one in the same. We ask you to form your own conclusion.

We feel that based on personal experiences, video and audio evidence, that this location is indeed haunted. However, all of the evidence points to the haunting as being benign and nothing would suggest that the staff and patrons, have anything to be concerned with.
