Pabst Brewery

Milwaukee, WI

May 16, 2014

Brief History of the Property

Jacob Best Sr. established the Pabst Brewing Company in 1844. In the late 1800's until 1946, Pabst Brewing Company became America's largest brewer. In 1996, the brewery was closed and sat empty until 2001. On September 11, 2001, Jim Haertel was notified that his offer to purchase Pabst Brewery was accepted. The Blue Ribbon Hall, the Great Hall, Captain's Courtyard, Guest Center, King's Courtyard, and the original gift shop have been restored. The administration offices were also restored.

Fundraising Event

Brew City Paranormal was part of an event called, "Horror O Rama," in Milwaukee, WI. The event was held at the famed Pabst Brewery complex which also houses the Best Place Pub. As part of the event, we put on a mini investigation that lasted 2 hours. We had access to a couple of areas of the Brewery which also included the administration offices for the Brewery. Frederick Pabst had his office in this area and it was still well preserved too, if I say so myself! We set up this investigation as a fundraising event. Anyone who wanted to join us on the investigation, paid $15.00 with all money going to Autism Speaks. It was a great success! Thanks to all who joined us this evening.

During the investigation our team used the following pieces of equipment:

• 2 voice recorders

• 1 SB-& Spirit Box with speaker

• 1 Mel Meter

• 1 full spectrum still camera

• 1 REM pod

• 1 digital still camera

In the interest of time, we didn't bring our full equipment load that would normally have been brought to an investigation. We had limited time to get everyone together and set things up.

Audio Evidence

Please listen with head phones for the best results.

Note: All EVPs are subjective and you may form your own opinions on what is being said. The following are the audio recordings from this investigation.

Note:

Although this was a public event, we asked everyone in attendance to please abide by some simple rules. When we did a SB7 Spirit Box session or an EVP session, no one was allowed to talk unless they raised their hand to speak. We did this so people wouldn't be talking over each other. We also asked during these sessions that people not walk around so as to keep noise contamination to a minimum.
