Spirit Investigation Unit
Our group currently consists of 30 individuals. During the weekend of July 14 – July 16, 2023 we had 22 in attendance at the Ruebel Hotel in Grafton, IL. We are amateur investigators with a skeleton budget. This weekend was our first experience using dowsing rods and a spirit box with noise canceling headphones to communicate with the spirits of the Ruebel Hotel. This was not our first trip to the Ruebel Hotel, as a matter of fact we have been going there for years but this was our first year since we formed the Spirit Investigation Unit. We have spent one weekend a year for four of the past five years at the Ruebel Hotel and we really enjoyed getting to know owners Mo and Karen and their son Cyrus who manages the Ruebel Hotel.

Early on
In 2018 our Fraternity from Southern Illinois University, ALPHA GAMMA RHO, spent the weekend at the Ruebel Hotel for a Summer Meeting. We just used an EMF (Electromagnetic Field) meter to check for the presence of spirits. That experience changed the lives of our current membership.
