Ponyville Paranormal Society

The Ponyville Paranormal Society

One year ago on a crisp Autumn night, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, and Twilight decided to have a girl’s night out at Twilight’s library. After midnight, they agreed to watch a movie before turning down for the night. What happened next took them all by surprise. A crash was heard in the other room and whispers were heard. They thought it was only Spike but he was away in Canterlot with the Princess on royal business. So all three got up to investigate the mysterious crash and whispering. Once in the room, they noticed one of the bookshelves were off the wall flat on the ground. Books scattered everywhere. Twilight turned her head and near the window she saw a dark shadow walk and disappear. Twilight screamed. “Did you girls see that?!” She turned around to see both AJ and Rainbow Dash completely pale as they too saw the same thing.

From that day on, the three young mares founded the ‘Ponyville Paranormal Society’ in hopes to gather evidence that they once experienced and help other ponies who too experience the paranormal.

“Hey Twilight I got a good one for us. You’re gonna love this.” Rainbow Dash said excitedly.

“I was going through our fan investigation letters and it seems we’re gathering a lot of attention. The Princesses themselves have called to ask us to investigate the main castle building!”

Twilight and Applejack looked over their desks at each other with wide eyes and smiles.

“Woah are serious?” Twilight asked.

“Hay yeah I’m serious! She said she could have the whole area blocked off for us so there’s no audio or video contamination. But we would have to do it tonight due to the Grand Galloping Gala coming up.

“Why I say lets get’er done!” Applejack said.

The team then began to gather all their equipment for tonight’s investigation. This one was going to be the biggest place they’ve ever investigated so the need pack extra static night vision cameras and video tapes was essential. They loaded up the equipment in a cab and headed for the train station. Once there, and after signing a few autographs from a few fans, they boarded the train to Canterlot.

Twilight turned on the camera she was carrying to document the ride for their fans.

“We just got done talking to a few fans near the station and they said they enjoy our showings at the Ponyville Theater.” Rainbow Dash said to the camera. “In case anypony doesn’t know, after every big investigation we do, we show the investigation to the fans. And apparently it’s been a big hit.

“Exactly.” Applejack added. “But that doesn’t mean we’re gonna get carried away with all th’ popularity an all. Riiight RD?”

“Yeah, yeah I got it.” Rainbow rolled her eyes.

Twilight giggled. “Alright I’m gonna turn this off to save the battery.” A few seconds later and the camera turned off.

“Can you believe the Princess herself asked us to investigate the main castle building? This is gonna be crazy!” Rainbow exclaimed.

“I know!” Twilight replied. “And we’ll be able to see parts of the castle even I haven’t seen yet.”

“Ah sure can’t wait. This’ll be the toughest, yet best investigation we’ll do yet.”

“Agreed.” Rainbow and Twilight replied in unison.

******************************************************************************************

In a few hours, the train arrived in Canterlot. Outside the station awaited a cab to bring the team to the main castle building. They gathered their equipment bags and met outside with the cab.

After a few minutes, they arrived at the main castle building. They again gathered the equipment and waited. “Rainbow what does the paper say?” Twilight asked.

“It says we should wait out here until one of the guards comes out and escorts us inside to the Princess.” She replied.

“Sounds easy ‘nough.” Added Applejack.

Just then a guard appeared. “You the P.P.S.?

“Yes sir.” Twilight replied.

“Follow me.”

They picked up the equipment bags and followed the guard up the path to the main door. Once inside, they were greeted by the Princess.

“Thank you three for coming on such short notice.” Princess Celestia said.

“Not to worry Princess, we’re always happy to help.” Twilight beamed.

“Shall I show you where the activity happens?” She continued.

They all nodded.

“Okay, right this way.” Celestia lead them through the long hallway and brought them into a room what looked like a large eating area. “In here a lot of activity has been reported. Silverware has been told to float without any aura around it. And none of the ponies that work in this area are Unicorns. Other reports have been shadows and voices. One day one of the workers unlocked the doors and found a few table turned over and the chairs scattered about. Mind you the doors were locked so there was no way anypony was able to get in.”

“Applejack put an ‘X’ in that corner so later on during the investigation we can set up one of the static night vision cameras.

As she was told, she marked the corner with a black ‘X’.

“The next room is the most active. Follow me please.” Celestia said. She led them to the next room to which confused the team. It looked as if this was the Princess’s private quarters. “Now this room, as you may have guessed, is my private quarters and has the most activity. There are the usual voices and shadows, but during the night sometimes I awake to a strange sound and when I look up, there’s this ball of light that goes across the room and disappears into the wall. Doors also open and shut on their own.

“Do you ever find out what the voices are saying?” Twilight asked taking notes.

“I never have. I’ve come close to try to understand what they say but can’t make out the words.”

“Hmm.” Twilight wrote down more notes. “Has anything happened very recently?”

“Ohhh yes there has. Last night I woke up to my bed shaking erratically and what sounded like a dark laugh. I also smelled what I thought was something that smelt like sulfur. I almost never feel scared but this scared me so much I ran to Luna’s quarters and stayed there the rest of the night. I’m sorry but I’m desperate. I need answers to what this is and what it wants.”

“Don’t worry Princess. We’ll find out what it is. You have our word.” Rainbow said proudly.

“Thank you girls, I knew I could count on you.” Celestia gave a weak smile.

“Is that all that goes on ‘round here?” Applejack finally spoke up.

“Well between here and the dining hall is where most of the activity happens. Everywhere else gets a fair amount of activity. The whole place is yours to investigate.”

“Alright, sounds good Princess. Thanks again for letting us investigate.”

“It’s my pleasure Twilight. I’ll be in Luna’s quarters for tonight on the other end of the castle so you three should be good.”

“Sounds good! Let’s go girls.” Rainbow said. We got a little bit of daylight left so let’s get everything set up.

They turned around and walked to get their equipment bags. They took out a long extension cord and ran it through the main hallway. Rainbow took the static night vision camera and went into Celestia’s quarters. She took the stand and set it up. Then she placed the camera on its hook and turned it on. “This shit’s gonna be awesome! We’ll definitely catch something for sure!” When she went to plug in the camera, she was zapped by the outlet. “Ow shit! Dammit!

Applejack and Twilight ran into the room. “Is everything okay? What happened?” Twilight asked frantically.

Rainbow sucked on her sore hoof. “The bucking outlet zapped me!”

Applejack chuckled.

“And what’s so funny?” Rainbow demanded.

“That happened the last investigation, you zappin yourself on an outlet.” She continued.

“For buck’s sake, how many times do I have to say it? That one was an accident. This time I tried to be careful.

“Girls let’s not fight again.” Twilight pleaded. “Everything’s all set up out there. What about in here?”

“Yeah just need a voice recorder in here to see if we catch any voices.” Rainbow replied.

“Here I have an extra.” Applejack replied, putting the recorder on the night shelf across the room. “From what the Princess was describing, Ah think we should be careful this time around. We don’t wanna be messin with anything that can cause any harm.

“I agree. I don't know about anypony else, but the Princess seemed a little shaken up and didn't want to be around here. So let's keep our eyes open and be careful okay?" Applejack and Rainbow nodded. "Well okay then I guess we’re ready. Lights out.” Twilight said. They went through the entire main building and turned off all lights. They met with each other near the entrance.

“Now let’s get this investigation going!” Rainbow Dash boasted.
