News 11/3/08 We here at HPIR would like to say thank you to everyone who attended our Historic Guyandotte Candlelight Walking Tour this past weekend! This was the first year for the historic walking tour and we had an amazing turn out of people, much more than expected. Thank you all for helping to make this tour such a success!! We had nearly 300 guestbook signatures! We would also like to apologize to those who came to our tour expecting it to be a haunted tour. We are not exactly sure how this information came about, but again we do apologize to anyone who may have been misinformed and who were disappointed. Next year we do plan to resume the Historic Guyandotte Candlelight Walking Tour during the weekend of the Guyandotte Civil War Days 20th Anniversary. We hope to see everyone again next year! We also want to give a special thank you to the Guyandotte Civil War Days Committee and to the Guyandotte Branch Library. THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Update 10/29/2006
The investigation of the Jenkins House is complete and we are
currently going over the gathered evidence and should hopefully have something
to present soon.
On another note, we are going to have to limit our membership for right now, we
are currently getting more membership requests than investigation requests and
this is beginning to create a logistical nightmare. We want all of our members
to have an opportunity to participate in some investigations, and since we are
not currently getting a lot of requests to perform investigations, this is
becoming difficult to accomplish.
As of today, 10/29/2006, we are temporarily suspending open membership, we will
re-open it as soon as we get more investigations scheduled.
Update 10/25/2006
Coming up on the 27th, we will be investigating the Jenkins
House itself.
We have been there a few times touring around the outside of the building, but
this will be the first investigation done on the inside of the house itself.
Any and all evidence that we may collect will be posted soon after, check the
investigations page for any new entries.
