Type of Investigation:
Complete
Official Paranormal Report Filed:
None filed
Description of Investigation:
This was the last of WIX's investigations when our team (six members for this investigation) stayed in the same group.  Each member was given about two pieces of equipment that was deemed appropriate for this investigation.  At the direction of the current owner and another Paranormal Research Group, WIX started investigating the basement.  After combing the basement with our equipment, WIX proceeded to move up each floor and investigate each individual room.  At the end of the investigation, WIX presented our preliminary findings with the owner and the other Research Group. 
Case Classification:
Not haunted
Explanation of Case Classification:
Based on WIX's investigation at the location with our equipment, the ordinary experiences at the location, and the after-site analysis, WIX found no conclusive evidence whatsoever that the McMillion Hotel would be haunted.
