Real EVP Unknowingly Captured on Movie Set! in General Mental Anesthesia

I think this is pretty cool & I’ll include some bts shots to give you guys an exclusive inside look.

While editing audio in a scene from our new short horror film “The Shop”. I discovered a class A EVP!

(Electronic Voice Phenomena) - are sounds found on electronic recordings that are interpreted as spirit voices that have been either unintentionally recorded or intentionally requested and recorded.

We turned part of this dance studio into a bakery for the movie.

We bought all the food except for the fruit pizza you see, I made that! ;)

Setting up the lights and boom mic.

One of our very talented actors “Marissa” in a scene on set.

Our other amazing actor “Debbie” ready for a dramatic take.

Blood, gore, sure! But we have fun on set!

I wasn’t given the nickname “The Guru of Blood” for nothing!

Some of my other sfx work in the film.

I’m taking a break from taking notes…

and here’s part of the scene we were editing when I heard the EVP.

As a long time paranormal investigator for more than half my life having captured many EVP’s over the years, this one was totally unexpected. What’s cool is that the movie is not paranormal in nature. The building we were shooting in was not known to be haunted (although spirits are everywhere). And anything ‘paranormal’ was the furthest thing from anyone’s mind.

During a scene between the two title characters, a third voice is heard and actually went unnoticed until we were heavy into post production. Only two actors on set, one speaking. This is not rehearsal footage it is: “quiet on the set, we’re rolling” actual footage. (I should know, I was there). No, no one heard anything or felt anything while we were shooting, it was a long 22 hour day and we were extremely busy at the time.

I don’t want to say much more about it, I’d rather leave it open for you fine folks to interpret, but don’t be shy to comment!
