In 2004, I took my digital camera and headed down to Biloxi's beach to view and photograph planets in the sky. A planetary phenomenon, or rarity was occuring, and I wanted to capture the moment. It was a beautiful, clear night with warm winds blowing off of the Gulf of Mexico. Across the street from the beach sat the old Danzler House whose history included spiritual activity. Having only heard the stories from others, it was my plan to visit the Danzler's interior one evening after dark to document any spiritual activity that would surface while I was there. But, on this night, while waiting for the planets to show themselves, I shot many photographs of the Danzler House along with other homes and scenery close to the Gulf.
Every photo I took turned out clear, crisp and perfect. That is, every photo with the exception of the Danzler House. No matter how far or close I took the photos, all photos of the house appeared distorted and cloudy. I finally gave up, and photographed the Biloxi Lighthouse. I eventually tired of waiting on the planets, and drove home eager to transfer my photographs of the evening onto the computer.What I discovered was shocking! There on the computer screen was the Danzler House alright. The Danzler and the many vortexes beaming around the property. Above the house lay dark clouds and forms in the photograph. To the eye, and in person, the sky was clear with no clouds in sight.
I should tell you that on the neighboring property just several yards east of the Danzler, Native American skeletons and runes had been discovered on the property of Moran's Art Studio many years prior to this photograph. The photograph was proof enough to me that spirits definitely resided on the property.
Despite my desire to enter the house, and photograph or film activity, I never would get the chance to go. Perhaps I would have had I not procrastinated. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina hit the Mississippi Gulf Coast wiping away the Danzler House, along with the majority of historical homes, houses and buildings along the beachfront, as well as, the majority of South Mississippi. This photograph survived.
