Paranormal Lockdown (2016) s01e01 Episode Script
Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum
1 HE HAD BLACKNESS AND EVILNESS ABOUT HIM.
THEY'RE COMING AT ME FROMLL A ANGLES.
ARE YOU OKAY? PATIENTS MUST'VE FELT SCARED TO BE IN THE DARKNESS.
I DON'T THINK WE'RE ALONE RIGHT NOW.
MY GOD.
I SAW SOMETHING - GO IN FRONT OF TT HAWINDOW.
THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND ABOUT THAT.
WHAT AM I DOING? [ GASPS .]
WHAT THE [BLEE IP.]
S THAT? AM I LOSING MY MIND? NO.
SOMETHING'S HAPPENING UP HERE.
ÃÃ Ã I'VE SEEN THE WAY Ã Ã THROUGH ALL THE PAIN Ã Ã I'VE WALKED THROUGH DARKNESS, FIRE, AND RAIN Ã Ã THEY FILL MY GRAVE Ã Ã BUT STILL MY SOUL REMAINS Ã Ã HERE BETWEEN HERE AND THE BEYOND Ã -- Captions by VITAC -- CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS Narrator: THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM SITS ON 666 ACRES OF PURE HELL IN WESTON, WEST VIRGINIA.
ORIGINALLY DESIGNED TO HOUSE 240 PATIENTS WHEN IT OPENED IN 1864, AT ITS PEAK, IT HELD 2,400 MENTALLY ILL, CRIMINALLY INSANE AND NEUROLOGICALLY DAMAGED SOULS.
MEDICAL TREATMENTS WERE PRIMITIVE, AND PATIENTS WERE SUBJECTED TO BARBARIC PRACTICES -- LOBOTOMIES ISOLATION AND ELECTRIC SHOCK.
AFTER THE ASYLUM WAS SHUT DOWN IN 1994, ITS OWNERS ALLOWED A SELECT FEW PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS INSIDE TO PLY THEIR TRADE.
SOME CLAIMED TO HEAR DISEMBODIED SCREAMS AND DOORS SLAMMING.
OTHERS, INCLUDING NICK, HAVE REPORTED SIGHTINGS OF SHADOW FIGURES MOVING THROUGH THE VAST HALLWAYS.
FOR KATRINA, IT'S HER FIRST TIME INSIDE THIS LOCATION.
FOR NICK, IT'S A RETURN TO A PLACE WHERE HE HAD ONE OF HIS MOS PROFOUND PARANORMAL EXPERIENCES.
ESPECIALLY IN THE FOURTH WARD UP THERE, I REMEMBER SEEING THIS SHADOW FIGURE DOWN THE HALLWAY.
AND THAT'S THE REAL REASON WHY WE'RE HERE.
WE NEED TO CAPTURE AND DOCUMEN THESE SHADOW PEOPLE.
THEY'RSOE SCARY.
ALL RIGHT.
- WELL, LET'S START INSTVEIGATING.
HERE WE GO.
Nick: THE MOMENT WE CROSS THIS TESHRHOLD OH, WOW.
OUR INVESTIGATION BEGINS.
FOR THE NEXT 72 HOURS, KATRINA AND I WILL BE CONFINED TO THESE LONG HALLWAYS AND ABANDONED TREATMENT WARDS.
IT WILL BE DARK, FILTHY, AND COLD.
BUT THOSE ARE JUS THE PHYSICAL CONDITIONS.
WHAT I'M WORRIED ABOU ARE THE UNSEEN FORCES THAT INHABIT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM.
WHILE MENTAL EXHAUSTION WILL OPEN OUR MINDS TO THE PARANORMAL WORLD, WE MAY BE TOO WEAK TO RESIS ANY PHYSICAL ATTACHMENTS BY THE SOULS WHO REMAIN HERE.
HOWEVER, THAT IS THE RISK WE'RE WILLING TO TAKE IN HOPES OF GATHERING GROUNDBREAKING PARANORMAL EVIDENCE.
WE START OUR INVESTIGATION ON THE FOURTH FLOOR, WHERE I SAW A DARK HUMANOID APPARITION, A SHADOW FIGURE, IN 2009.
Nick: DOWN THIS HALLWAY.
AND I SAW JUST THIS SHADOW JUST MOVE REALLY QUICKLY.
SO I CAUGHT I - OUT OF MY PERIPHERAL VISION.
SO WHAT WAS IT? WAS IT, LIKE, A FORM OF A PERSON? LIKE, A FIGURE, LIKE, AN OUTLINE, JUST ALL DARK.
AND IT JUST MOVED.
COMPLETELY BLACKED OUT, COULDN'T SEE THROUGH IT? YEAH.
SO IT WAS RIGHT AROUND IN THIS AREA I SAW IT.
AND YOU WERE STANDING HERE, OR IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, YEAH, I WAS BACK THERE.
AND I SAW I AT THE END OF THIS HALL.
[ EXHALES DEEPLY .]
FEELS WEIRD BEING BACK.
SOME CHILLS - JUST THINKING ABOUT THAT.
ARE YOU EXCITED TO BE HERE FOR 3 DAYS? I FEEL ANXIOUS UP HERE.
I'M SCARED OF THIS PLACE.
YEAH, I KNOW.
YOU WERE SAYING YOU WERE HAVING NIGHTMARES.
I DID HAVE ONE NIGHTMARE THE NIGHT BEFORE WE GOT HERE, AND THE ONLY THING I REMEMBER FROM I WAS THAT I WAS IN THIS DARK HALLWAY AND I JUST STARTED HYPERVENTILATING UNCONTROLLABLY.
WE HAVE 3 DAYS HERE.
WE'RE GONNA BE INVESTIGATING FOR A LONG TIME.
I WANT TO TRY TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY OTHER BUILDINGS THAT I HAVEN' INVESTIGATED YET.
Nick: TRANS-ALLEGHENY CONSISTS OF 13 BUILDINGS, SO IT'S ESSENTIAL WE COME UP WITH A CONCRETE PLAN OF ATTACK.
SO THERE'S A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER.
YEAH, THIS PLACE IS HUMONGOUS.
I'VE BEEN ALL OVER THIS WHOLE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE BUILDING.
BUT THIS BUILDING I HAVEN'T BEEN IN YET.
SO I HEARD A LOT OF STORIES ABOUT THAT LOCATION.
POSSIBLY COULD HAVE SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE LOOKING FOR, MAYBE SHADOW FIGURES.
THAT'S THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUILDING, AND DUE TO ITS DETERIORATING CONDITION, IT HAS BEEN OFF-LIMITS.
REBECCA GLEASON, THE OWNER OF THE ASYLUM, HAS AGREED TO ALLOW US FIRST-TIME ACCESS INTO THIS UNCHARTED TERRITORY.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR THOSE APPARITIONS, THOSE SHADOW FIGURES.
PART OF THE NEATEST STUFF WE HAVE HERE ARE THOSE GUYS GOING FROM ROOM TO ROOM.
NOW, THIS ONE THAT WE'RE WALKING TO IS THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUILDING, AND IT'S THE SECOND-OLDES BUILDING ON THE PROPERTY.
WOW.
THIS IS AMAZING.
I STOPPED FOR A SECOND.
I HESITATED.
'CAUSE ICT AUALLY THOUGHT I SAW SOMEBODY STAND IN THE DOOR.
AND I THOUGH IT WAS OUR CAMERAMAN, BUT I HAD TO DO, LIKE, A DOUBLE-TAKE.
YEAH.
I SAW SOMEONE STAND HERE, LI, KENO JOKE, JUST STANDING HERE LIKE THIS.
IT WAS ALL SOLID.
- THAT'S WHY I ASKED ABOUT, IS -- DO YOU SEE SOLID FIGURES, OR DO YOU JUST SEE APPARITIONS OF FIGURES? SHADOW FIGURES ARE SEEN A LOT.
IT ALWAYS SEEMS LIKE IT'S OUT OF THE CORNER OF YOUR EYE.
BEFORE WE LEAVE, I WANT TO DO SOMETHING WITH YOU BECAUSE I'M STILL CAUGHT UP ON, LIKE, THIS THING THAT I SAW OVER THERE.
HERE.
I'M GONNA GIVE YOU THIS RECORDER.
HIT RECORD.
WATHS ERE A MAN, OR WAS THERE SOMEBODY STANDING INSIDE THAT ROOM OVER THERE? DID I JUST SEE YOU? DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE DEAD? Nick: WHAT DO YOU FEEL RIGHT NOW? LIKE WE'RE BEING WATCHED.
DO YOU FEEL, LIKE, GOOSEBUMPS, LIKEEL, ECTRICITY? YEP.
I FELT THAT, TOO, ALL OF A SUDDEN, JUST COME UP BEHIND ME, LIKE ELECTRICITY.
SEE? LOOK AT THE HAIR.
OH, WOW.
YEAH.
YOU HAVE GOOSEBUMPS ALL OVER YOUR ARMS.
LET ME STOP THIS, PLAY IT BACK REALLY QUICK.
WAS THERE A MAN, OR WAS THERE SOMEBODY STANDING INSIDE THAT ROOM OVER THERE? DID I JUST SEE YOU? [ INDISTINCT TALKING .]
THAT WAS WEIRD.
WAS THERE SOMEBODY STANDING INSIDE THAT ROOMVE OR THERE? DID I JUST SEE YOU? -YES.
-YES? DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE DEAD? WHOA.
THAT SAID NO! DID YOU HEAR THAT? -WOW.
-FELT THAT ELECTRICITY YEAH.
- THAT WAS SO CLEAR.
THAT'S SO COOL! THAT'S AWESOME.
SO AWESOME.
- I LOVE IT.
BUT THAT'S SO CREEPY.
LIKE, WE FELT THAT, THE ENERGY COME UP ON US.
AND YOU WERE HAVING THE SENSATION.
YOU WERE FEELING SOMETHING AND PICKING UP EMOTIONALLY ON SOMETHING.
THE SPIRIT'S CONNECTING WITH US ALREADY.
WE HAVE A LOT AHEAD OF US.
YOU WANT TO GET GOING? YEAH.
I WANT TO STAR INVESTIGATING MORE.
GETTING AN INTELLIGENT RESPONSE THIS QUICKLY AND IN THE DAYTIME IS EXCITING.
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WE WILL FIND WHEN WE ARE CONFINED HERE AT NIGHT.
BUT NOW, TO LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT THIS PLACE WAS LIKE WHEN IT WAS OINPERATION, WE MEET FORMER EMPLOYEE BETH NEASE, WHO WAS HERE ON THE DAY TWO PATIENTS WERE BRUTALLY MURDERED.
SHE HAS NOT SEEN NOR STEPPED FOOT INSIDE THE ASYLUM IN OVER 30 YEARS.
WOW.
THE GRAND OLD DAME STILL STANDS.
[ LAUGHS .]
Nick: SO ARE YOU READY TO GO INSIDE? [ Voice breaking .]
IT'S GONNA BE VERY EMOTIONAL TO DO THIS.
I'M ANXIOUS TO SEE THE PLACE, AND MEMORIES JUST ARE FLOODING.
LET'S DO IT.
Katrina: WHEN WE TALK TO SOMEBODY THAT WAS ACTUALLY THERE, IT BRINGS IN A HUMAN ELEMEN THAT SOMETIMES, AS RESEARCHERS, WE LOSE.
IT'S NOT JUST PAPER AND WORDS AND DATES.
IT BECOMESSOULS.
THIS IS WARD F, AND IT WAS PART OF WHAT'S CALLED THE SECURITY UNIT.
THIS IS WHERE WE HAD THE DANGEROUS PATIENTS.
THEY HAD EITHER KILLED OTHERS, HAD HARMED OTHERS SEVERELY.
THIS IS WHERE THE MURDER TOOK PLACE, IN THIS ROOM.
THERE WERE T MWOURDERERS AND TWO PEOPLE THAT WERE MURDERED.
AND THEY HUNG THEM.
AND THEY DID NOT DIE, SO THEY BROUGHT THEM BACK DOWN.
AND THEY TOOK METAL FROM THE, UH -- FROM THE FRAME OF THE METAL BEDS, PIECES OF METAL, AND PLUNGED IT THROUGH THEIR HEADS TO KILL THEM.
DID YOU KNOW THESE GUYS? YES.
I KNEW ALL FOUR OF THEM.
I DID.
THE ONE MAN WHO WAS A MURDERER WAS A SERIAL KILLER.
HE HAD MURDERED, UH, PRIOR TO COMING IN HERE.
WHAT WAS HE LIKE? HE WAS FRIGHTENING.
HE HAD AND -- AND YOU MIGH LAUGH AT ME.
BUT HE HAD BLACKNESS OF AN EVILNESS ABOUT HIM.
SO WHAT ABOUT THE -- THE MEN WHO WERE MURDERED? THEY WERE BOTH CHILDREN, AS FAR AS THEIR MIND CAPACITY WAS CONCERNED.
I HAVE A FRIEND WHO -- WHO WAS IN RECREATION, AND SHE HAD BEEN ON THE UNI THAT MORNING WITH THESE PATIENTS.
THE TWO THAT HAD BEEN MURDERED, UH, HAD SET AT HER FEE AND COLORED THAT MORNING, 'CAUSE THAT WAS ALL THEY COULD DO.
THEY WERE JUST HELPLESS, COMPLETELY HELPLESS.
YES, THEY WERE.
AS BETH IS TELLING US THE STORY OF THE MURDER, IT'S JUST BREAKING MY HEAR PIECE BY PIECE.
EVERYTHING WAS HAPPY.
EVERYTHING WAS GOOD.
THEY HAD NO WORRIES.
AND THEN, THIS HORRIBLE THING HAPPENS TO THEM, AND NOBODY WAS THERE TO PROTECT THEM.
IT WAS HD ARTO HEAR.
Nick: BETH'S MEMORY REPRESENTS JUST ONE OF HUNDREDS OF STORIES OF THE LIVES LIVED AND LOS HERE AT THE ASYLUM.
BUT IT BRINGS US ONE STEP CLOSER TO UNDERSTANDING WHO WE MIGHT COMMUNICATE WITH DURING OUR STAY.
AS THE SUN SETS, OUR CONFINEMENT BEGINS.
FROM HERE ON OUT, IT'S ONLY ME, KATRINA, AND OUR CAMERAMAN, ROB, ARMED WITH A STATE-OF-THE-AR 6K HIGH-DEFINITION INFRARED CAMERA.
WE IMMEDIATELY RETURN TO WARD F AND THE ROOM WHERE TWO INNOCENT PATIENTS WE MREURDERED 30 YEARS AGO.
OUR GOAL IS TO CONNEC WITH THESE VICTIMS.
I'M REAL EXCITED TO USE THIS GEOBOX.
GEORGE BROWN INVENTED IT.
HE CREATED THIS.
HE DESIGNED I SPECIFICALLY FOR US.
WE HAVE THE E ONAND ONLY.
IT ACTUALLY TAPS INTO THREE DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES.
YOU HAVE EMF, VIBRATIONAL WAVE, AND ALSO RADIO FREQUENCY THAT IT'S ALLOWING SPIRITS TO COME THROUGH AND COMMUNICATE.
SOOP HEFULLY, SOME OF THE SPIRITS CAN TALK WITH US THROUGH THIS.
[ STATIC .]
SO LET'S SEE IF WE CAN COMMUNICATE.
HELLO? - IS THERE ANYONE IN HERE WITH US? SO YOU GONNA LAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR? I'M JUST GONNA LAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR.
I ASK KATRINA TO LIE IN THE SAME POSITION AS THE MEN WERE IN RIGHT BEFORE THEY WERE MURDERED, PIHONG TO GET AN INTELLIGEN RESPONSE FROM THE GEOBOX.
[ STATIC .]
IT SAID, "NICK.
" IT GOES, "NICK?" IS THAT WHAT THAT WAS? IT SAID, "NICK.
" Nick: WE'RE 12 HOURS INTO OUR 72-HOUR LKDOCOWN AT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM IN WEST VIRGINIA.
KATRINA AND I ARE ATTEMPTING TO REACH THE SPIRITS OF TWO MURDERED VICTIMS IN WARD F.
IT SAID, "NICK.
" WAS THERE SOMEONE - WHO WAS KILLED IN THIS ROOM? DID THAT JUST SAY, "COME WITH US"? GETTING A RESPONSE COMING THROUGH INTELLIGENTLY IN REAL TIME, IT BLOWS MY MIND AWAY.
DID THAT JUST SAY, "COME WITH US"? [ STATIC .]
AFTER 2 HOURS WITH NO FURTHER INTELLIGENT RESPONSES AND THE NIGHT WEARING ON, WE DECIDE TO HEAD UP TO THE FOURTH FLOOR, WHERE I SAW A SHADOW FIGURE BACK IN 2009.
Nick: ARE YOU AT THE END OF THE HALL? WHAT WAS THAT? KATRINA, WAS THAT YOU? I KNOW.
I HEARD THAT.
YOU HEARD THAT, ROB? IT JUST SOUNDED LIKE, "SHH.
" -YES.
-I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING.
IT WAS, LIKE, RIGHT HERE.
IT WAS RIGHT WHEN WE WERE PASSING THESE DOORS.
I HEARD SOMEONE GO, "SHH.
" THAT'S WHAT I HEARD.
THAT'S WHY I TURNED AROUND.
I WAS LIKE I THOUGHT THAT WAS YOU OR SOMETHING.
HONESTLY, LIKE, I'M SCARED.
ARE YOU? I'M ACTUALLY SCARED THINKING THAT I SHOULD SLEEP HUPERE.
I WILL NOT LIE.
I'M REALLY NERVOUS ABOUT IT.
MY INSTINCTS ARE TELLING ME THERE'S SOMETHING POWERFUL HERE ON THE FOURTH FLOOR.
SO BEFORE I COMMI TO WHERE I'LL SLEEP TONIGHT, I'M GOING TO DO A DIGITAL VOICE RECORDER SESSION TO SEE IF THERE'S A CHANCE I CAN MAKE CONTAC WHEN I'M ALONE AND IN A VULNERABLE STATE.
IT'S SCARY FOR ME WALKING AROUND BY MYSELF IN THE DARKNESS.
IS IT SCARY FOR YOU? KATRINA, COME IN HERE.
IT'S SCARYOR F ME WALKING AROUND BY MYSELF IN THE DARKNESS.
IS IT SCARY FOR YOU? RIGHT THERE.
COMPLETELY SILENT.
I DIDN'T MOVE.
I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING.
IT'S SCARY FOR ME WALKING AROUND BY MYSELF IN THE DARKNESS.
IS IT SCARY FOR YOU? YEP.
PATIENTS, PEOPLE - THAT WERE ONCE LIVINHEG RE, MUST'VE FELT SCARED TO BE IN THE DARKNESS, DISAUTRGHT, NOT UNDERSTANDING WHAT'S GOING ON, CONFUSED.
THIS LOCATION, IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOU JUST FEEL THAT -- THAT ENERGY AND SADNESS.
NOW THAT I KNOW THERE'S A PRESEN HCEERE ON THE FOURTH FLOOR IN THE WES WING OF THE MAIN BUILDING, I DECIDE IT'S A GOOD PLACE TO SPEND THE NIGHT.
OUR CAMERAMAN, ROB, LEAVES THE FACILITY TO GET SOME MUCH-NEEDED REST, AND KATRINA HEADS BACK TO THE THIRD FLOOR TO SET UP HER BED IN THE MURDER ROOM.
WE ARE NOW COMPLETELY ISOLATED IN THE DARKNESS.
THIS IS THE ROOM WHERE EARLIER TONIGH I FELT REALLY, REALLY SAD.
BEST WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT, IN THIS ROOM IT JUST FEELS LIKE EMPTINESS, LIKE YOU HAVE NO HOPE INSIDE OF YOU.
WHOA.
I'M ALL BY MYSELF NOW.
I NEED TO SLEEP, BUT MY MIND IS MY FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE.
IF I LET MY GUARD DOWN TO REST, I COULD BE ATTACKED BY AN ENTITY SEEKING ENTRY INTO THIS WORLD.
I'M ALREADY FEELING ENERGY ALL AROUND ME, ENERGY I CAN'T SEE.
I FEEL LIKE THEY'RE COMING AT ME FROM ALL ANGLES, FROM FRONT, FROM BACK, FROM SIDE TO SIDE, FROM THESE ROOMS.
IS THERE SOMEBODY HERE? WHILE MY CAMERA CAPTURES THIS IMAGE OF ME IN THE INFRARED NIGHT VISION, I AM SEEING ONLY TOTAL BLACKNESS.
I'M KEEPING MY SHOES ON JUST IN CASE I HAVE TO GET UP AND MOVE QUICKLY.
OH, MY GOD.
HERE WE GO.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! I'M SITTING UP IN MY BED, AND I'M LOOKING AROUND.
AND I JUST FEEL THIS ENERGY RUSH UP BEHIND ME AND THIS LOUD BANG JUS RESONATE THROUGH THE HALLWAY.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! Nick: AFTER INVESTIGATING THE FOUR FTHLOOR OF THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM, KATRINA AND I HAVE SPLIT UP.
WE'RE ALONE IN SEPARATE AREAS OF THE MAIN BUILDING, ATTEMPTING TO MAKE CONTAC WITH THE OTHER SIDE, WHEN I'M JOLTED BY A BIG BANG DIRECTLY BEHIND ME.
I'M SITTING UP IN MY BED, AND I'M LOOKING AROUND.
AND I JUST FEEL THIS ENERGY RUSH UP BEHIND ME AND THIS LOUD BANG JUST RESONATE THROUGH THE HALLWAY.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! I HAVE TO TELL MYSELF, "DON'T RUN.
DON'T MOVE.
STAND YOUR GROUND.
LAY DOWN.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
" SOMETHING IS HERE WITH ME.
BUT TONIGHT, I WANT TO OBSERVE IT, WHATEVER IT IS.
TOO MUCH ACTIVITY FROM ME, AND I MIGHT SCARE IT AWAY.
I AM EXHAUSTED.
UGH.
THIS IS WHERE I SLEPT.
HONESTLY, IN ONE OF THE MOS HAUNTED PLACES IN AMERICA.
THIS IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE CREEPIEST HALLWAYS I'VE EVER SLEPT IN.
HERE'S THE FRONT PAR OF THE BUILDING.
DURING THE DAY, IT'S HAUNTED, TOO.
THAT'S WHY I LOVE INVESTIGATING 24/7, AROUND THE CLOCK, 3 DAYS STRAIGHT.
I'M GONNA TRY SOMETHING REALLYUI QCK.
ROLLING ON THE RECORDER.
IS THERE ANYBODY DOWN HERE? ARE YOU WALKING BEHIND ME? STOPPING.
IS THERE ANYBODY DOWN HERE? KIND OF WEIRD.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT SAYS, BUT SOMETHING THERE.
YOU GET UP OUT OF YOUR BED WHERE YOU SLEPT, RIGHTHE TRE.
AND YOU WALK AROUND, AND YOU START ASKING QUESTIONS TO THE SPIRITS.
AND WE'LL CALL THAT ONE THE PARANORMAL WAKE-UP.
LET'S GO SEE IF KATRINA'S UP.
EVEN DURING THE DAY, WALKING AROUND IS CREEPY.
ALL RIGHT.
NOW, WE'RE IN THE THIRD FLOOR.
-HI.
-HEY.
Nick: HEY, WERE YOU WALKING DOWN THE HALL? NO.
- DID YOU EVER GET UP? NO.
YOU'RE KIDDING ME.
- NO.
I HEARD -- - AND I THOUGHT YOU WERE UP.
I HEARD THAT TYPE OF, LIKE, NURSES' SHOES, LIKE, WALKING DOWN THE HALLWAY.
SO WOULD YOU, UH, DO ME THE HONORS AND COME INVESTIGATE DURING THE DAY WITH ME? I'D LOVE TO.
Nick: RIGHT HERE.
I HEARD SOMEBODY WALKING UP THIS HALLWAY RIGHT HERE.
OH, WEIRD.
IT WAS HD ARTO BREATHE WHEN YOU WALKED IN HERE? YEAH, - I JUST FELT, UH, ASTHMA, LIKE WHEN YOU HAVE ASTHMA, AND IT'S LIKE -- IT'S LIKE THAT THICK AIR THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO BREATHE.
I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY GAMES.
AND I WOULD LOVE TO STAY HERE ALL MORNING AND PLAY GAMES WITH YOU.
WHAT KIND OF GAME WOULD YOU WANT TO PLAY? WHAT KIND OF GAME WOULD YOU WANT TO PLAY? [ INDISTINCT TALKING .]
I THINK IT'S IS IT SAYING "BITCH" ON THERE? YES.
IT IS.
LIKE, "SHUT UP, BITCH"? IT'S LIKE YEAH, IT SAYS, "SOMETHING, SOMETHING, BITCH.
" THAT'S A REALLY GOOD VOICE.
YEAH.
THAT'S REALLY CLEAR.
AND IT'S WEIRD 'CAUSE YOU SAID YOU FELT ASTHMATIC IN HERE.
AND YOU FELT HEAVY IN THE CHES AND THEN SUDDENLY WOW.
THAT WAS CREEPY.
I WAS NOT EXPECTING THA DURING THE DAY.
Nick: BUT IN A PLACE LIKE TRANS-ALLHEEGNY, THE UNEXPECTED IS COMMON.
SO WE HEAD DOWNSTAIRS TO GRAB SOME FOOD, MEET BACK UP WITH ROB, AND REVIEW THE FOOTAGE OF ME FROM LAST NIGHT.
I'M WICKED EXHAUSTED.
BUT WHAT'S CRAZY IS - I HAD THIS BURST OF ENERGY, BECAUSE I KNOW TODAY IS GONNA BE EVEN MORE EXCITING.
YEAH.
HERE'S ME LAYING OUT.
[ LOUD BAN G .]
RIGHT THERE.
OH! - YOU HEAR IT? WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? WHAT WE'RE DOING IS NUTS.
YOU EVER THINK ABOU HOW WE'RE SKATING ON THIN ICE A LITTLE BIT? YEAH, ALL THE TIME.
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE MESSI WNGITH.
YOU READY TO GO? - YEAH.
ALL RIGHT.
Nick: BY THE TIME WE RECHARGE OUR CAMERA BATTERIES AND PREP OUR GEAR, NIGHT HAS FALLEN IN WEST VIRGINIA.
WE DECIDE TO HEAD BACK TO THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUDIILNG, WHERE YESTERDAY, AS THE FIRST PARANORMAL TEAM EVER ALLOWED INSIDE, WE CAPTURED VOICE EVIDENCE WITH REBECCA.
THIS TIME, WE'RE BRINGING THE GEOBOX TO SEE IF WE CAN MAKE DIRECT CONTACT.
AFTER YOU.
- THANK YOU.
UGH.
HELLO? WE'RE BACK.
[ STATIC .]
IF THERE'S ANYONE HERE, CAN YOU WALK ON OVER -- OVER TO OUR VOICE AND SAY SOMETHING? THIS DEVICE ISN'T GONNA HURT YOU.
HELLO? HELLO? THERE'S A WOMAN THAT SAID, "HELLO.
" DO YOU WAN TO TALK TO US? DON'T SAY A WORD.
THAT'S WHA IT JUST SAID.
A MAN JUST CAME THROUGH AND GOES, "DON'T SAY A WORD.
" DO YOU WAN TO TALK TO US? DON'T SAY A WORD.
THAT'S WHAT IT JUST SAID.
THAT JUST GAVE ME ILCHLS.
IT DID ON ME, TOO.
IT WAS IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE WAS TELLING HER HER.
DON'T SAY A WORD.
THAT'S WHAT I GOT, TOO.
YOU CAN TALK TO US.
- YOU DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO HIM.
NO.
HE GOES, "NO.
" NO? WHY CAN'T SHE TALK TO US? I'M TELLING YOU.
I HEARD THAT.
I'M GETTING CHILLS, LIKE, GOOSEBUMPS.
WHY ARE YOU NOT ALLOWING HER TO TALK TO US? IF YOU GUYS CAN SAY MY NAME, KATRINA, I'LL LEAVE.
AND I WON'T ASK HER TO KEEP TALKING.
KATRINA.
- NO, IT DID NOT.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
THAT JUST SAID KATRINA.
HE GOES, "KATRINA.
" OH, MY GOD.
- WANT ME TO PLAY IT BACK? YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
- I SWEAR.
THAT JUST SAID KATRINA.
YEAH.
LET'S CHECK THIS OUT.
RIGHT THERE.
YEAH.
YOU CAN HEAR IT.
HERE.
IT'S QUICK.
HE'S LIKE, "KATRINA.
" YEAH.
WHEN MY NAME CAME OUT OF THAT GEOBOX, I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT AT FIRST.
AND I'M LISTENING BACK TO OUR RECORDING OF IT.
AND YOU CAN.
YOU CAN HEAR "KATRINA.
" IF YOU GUYS CAN SAY MY NAME, KATRINA, I'LL LEAVE.
AND I WON'T ASK HER TO KEEP TALKING.
KATRINA! - NO, IT DID NOT.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
THAT JUST SAID KATRINA.
IT'S ALMOST LIKE THEY'RE STARTING TO GET FAMILIAR WITH US FOR US BEING HERE AS LONG AS WE HAVE BEEN.
ALL RIGHT.
LET'S GO BACK OVER TO THE MAIN BUILDING, BECAUSE YOU PROMISED THE SPIRI IF IT SAID YOUR NAME, WE'D LEAVE.
I DID PROMISE.
ALL RIGHT.
I'M GOING TO ABIDE BY THAT.
THANK YOU.
Nick: KEEPING KATRINA'S PROMISE TO THE SPIRITS, WE LEAVE THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUILDING AND MAKE OUR WAY TO THE MEDICAL BUILDING.
THIS FACILITY HOUSES THE MORGUE, THE LAST STOP FOR THOSE PATIENTS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES AT THE ASYLUM, INCLUDING THE VICTIMS OF THAT GRUESOME MURDER.
DID YOU GET ANYTHING WHEN YOU WERE IN HERE? YEAH.
I HAD TO LAY IN THE MORGUE, WHICH SUCKED.
OH, WOW.
- IT'S PRETTY WELL-PRESERVED.
YEAH, RIGHT HERE.
HERE IT IS.
THIS IS THE MORGUE? - THERE IT IS.
OH [BLEEP.]
NO.
IT'S A COFFIN? THAT'S A REAL COFFIN? YEAH, I THINK IT'S REAL.
YOU LAID IN HERE? - YEAH.
[ Chuckling .]
WHAT? YEAH, THE BOTTOM PART.
MAN.
THIS BRINGS BACK MEMORIES, THIS THING RIGHT HERE.
Nick: WHEN I VISITED THE ASYLUM YEARS AGO, I LAID ON THE MORGUE SLAB TO TRY TO FEEL WHAT IT WAS LIKE WHEN A SOUL PASSES ON.
I'M THINKING THIS WOULD BE A GOOD SPO TO CHALLENGE KATRINA TO SPEND THE NIGHT.
I'M HAVING, LIKE, A PAIN IN MY CHEST.
FEELS LIKE, UM, PINCHING OR STABBING.
REALLY? Nick: IT'S LATE ON NIGHT 2 OF OUR 72-HOUR LOCKDOWN, AND KATRINA AND I ARE IN THE ASYLUM'S DECREPIT OLD MORGUE.
IT'S BEEN MORE THAN 20 YEARS SINCE THE LAST BODY LAY HERE, BUT THEIR SPIRITS MAY STILL LINGER.
AND AS WE NEAR A STATE OF TOTAL EXHAUSTION, WE ARE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THEIR PRESENCE AND POSSIBLY POSSESSION.
I'M FEELING PAIN ON MY CHES RIGHT HERE ON MY LEFT SIDE.
FEELS LIKE, UM, PINCHING OR STABBING.
WE'RE IN THIS CREEPY OLD MEDICAL BUILDING.
AND I WALK IN, AND IMMEDIATELY I'M HAVING THESE CHEST PAINS.
AND I KNOW MY BODY WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN SOMETHING IS ME OR WHEN I'M BEING INFLUENCED BY SOMETHING THAT'S HERE.
AAH.
WHAT'S A MATTER, KATRINA? IT'S, LIKE IT'S CRAZY, LIKE, - A STABBING PAIN IN MY HEAD.
DO YOU THINK YOU WERE FEELING MAYBE THE IMPRINT OF A LOBOTOMY? I'VE BEEN TO LOCATIONS BEFORE WHERE PHYSICALLY I PICK UP ON HOW SOMEBODY DIED OR SOMETHING TRAUMATIC.
Nick: KATRINA'S EXHAUSTED STATE SEEMS TO BE MANGKI HER MORE VULNERABLE TO THE SPIRITS AROUND US, WHICH IS A PERFECT TIME TO PUSH OURSELVES EVEN FURTHER.
WE DECIDE TO SPLIT UP AND GO SOLO ONCEGA AIN.
I HEAD TO THE LOBOTOMY RECOVERY ROOM.
KATRINA ACCEPTS MY CLLHAENGE AND AGREES TO LIE ON THE MORGUE SLAB.
INTERNALLY, I'M FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, UM, 'CAUSE I'M IN A MORGUE AT LIKE 3:00 A.
M.
SO, UM, I'M JUST GONNA GO IN THERE, SEE IF I GET ANYTHING.
Nick: 3:00 A.
M.
IS WHAT'S KNOWN AS THE DEVIL'S HOUR.
IT'S DOCUMENTED THA MOST DEATHS OCCUR AT THIS TIME, AND IT'S BELIEVED THAT PARANORMAL ENERGY IS AT ITS PEAK.
OKAY.
THERE WAS ONLY ONE TIME IN MY LIFE I EVER WANTED TO BE ON ONE OF THESE.
AND THAT'S, LIKE, I -- EVEN IN MY HEAD, THAT'S LIKE 80 YEARS FROM NOW.
IT'S LIKE YOUR HEART RACES.
LIKE, I'M SHAKING.
I'M LITERALLY SHAKING.
IT'S SO CREEPY THINKING ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE IN HERE THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.
THAT IN AND -- IN AND OF ITSELF IS FRIGHTENING.
I THINK I'M HEARING FOOTSTEPS OUTSIDE, AND I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING.
[ TAPPING .]
I'M TOTALLY HEARING FOOTSTEPS.
CRAP.
MAYBE YOU CAN JUST BANG.
[ METAL RATTLES .]
[ METAL CLANGS .]
OOH! WHAT WAS THAT? I THINK IT WAS ME.
LIKE NICK ON NIGHT 1, I TRIED TO REMAIN CALM AND ENCOURAGE WHOEVER OR WHATEVER IS ACTING OU TO REMAIN IN THE ROOM WITH ME.
I'LL KEEP MY CAMERA RECORDING AS I TRY TO CATCH AN HOUR OF SLEEP.
THIS BASEMENT IS SO CREEPY.
I'M ALREADY HEARING WEIRD VOICES AND SHUFFLING NOISES.
I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M GONNA SLEEP DOWN HERE.
I'M COMPLETELY ALONE, I'M COLD, THIS FLOOR IS FILTHY, AND I'M FEELING DELIRIOUS WITH FEAR AND EXHAUSTION.
BUT THIS IS WHERE I WILL BED DOWN FOR THE NIGHT, WITH NOTHING MORE THAN MY CAMERA AND A DIGITAL VOICE RECORDER, HOPING TO CAPTURE WHAT I HAVE SEEN HERE BEFORE, A SHADOW FIGURE.
[ TAPPING .]
THERE'S SOMEONE WALKING OVER HERE RIGHT NOW.
I'M BY MYSELF.
THERE'S SOMEONE WALKING.
THEY KEEP WALKING, SHUFFLING THEIR FEET.
MY GOD.
WHAT AM I DOING? THIS IS STUPID.
IT'S THE MORNING OF DAY 3, AND WE STILL HAVEN'T SEEN A SHADOW FIGURE.
I DECIDE TO ENLIS THE HELP OF TWO FRIENDS WHO HAVE ALSO WITNESSED A SHADOW FIGURE WHILE INVESTIGATING HERE.
ACTING AS TRIGGER OBJECTS, MAYBE THEIR PRESENCE WILL BRING IT BACK.
-HEY.
-WELL, WELL, WELL.
HI! AMY BRUNI AND ADAM BERRY ARE GOOD FRIENDS OF MINE.
THEY'RE PARANORMAL INVESTIGATS.
OR I'M SO EXCITED YOU GUYS CAME HERE.
I KNOW! - WE ARE SO HAPPY TO BE HERE.
THIS IS ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES.
-WELCOME BACK.
-THANK YOU.
SO ARE YOU READY TO INVESTIGATE WITH US? YEAH.
WELL, THERE'S A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER.
WE'VE HAD A LOT OF THINGS HAPPEN HERE.
WE'VE BEEN HERE MANY TIMES.
DOWN THIS HALLWAY, - THERE'S A LITTLE KITCH AENREA THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THERE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE.
-LET'S GO THERE FIRST.
-ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE HERE TO TRY TO CAPTURE APPARITIONS.
WE -- EVERYWHERE WE -- - SHH.
I DID HEAR THAT.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? Nick: FELLOW PARANORMAL INVESGATITORS AMY BRUNI AND ADAM BERRY HAVE JOINED KATRINA AND ME AT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM.
TOGETHER, WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO CAPTURE EVIDENCE OF SHADOW FIGURES THAT ROAM THESE HAUNTED HALLS.
WE'RE HERE TO TRY TO CAPTURE APPARIOITNS.
WE -- EVERYWHERE WE -- - SHH.
I DID HEAR THAT.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? YEAH.
A WHISPER OR SOMETHING? I HEARD, LIKE, A FULL-ON "S" HHSOUND.
IT WAS A FULL-ON, LIKE LIKE SOMETHING WAS SHUSHING US.
LIKE, A SHUSH.
REMEMBER FROM LAST NIGHT? YEAH.
- YOU SAID THE SAME THING.
WAIT.
YOU GUYS GOT SHUSHED? ACTUALLY, YOU HEARD IT FIRST.
Amy: THAT'S WHAT I JUST -- WELL, THAT SOUND WE JUST HEARD SOUNDED LIKE A "SHH.
" Nick: AFTER EXPERIENCING THE SAME VOICE PHENOMENON WITH AMY AND ADAM, I DECIDE TO TAKE THEM UP TO THE FOURTH FLOOR, WHERE I SAW MY SHADOW FIGURE IN 2009 AND WHERE I SPEN A RESTLESS FIRST NIGHT.
DO YOU THINK YOU SLEPT AT ALL? UH, LIKE, MAYBE AN HOUR.
WAIT.
YOU JUST SLEP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HALLWAY? IT WAS SO SCARY - 'CAUSE MY HEAD WAS HERE, AND MY FEE AND THAT CAMERA -- I-I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING.
SO I WAS SO SCARED THAT SOMETHING WAS GONNA COME UP BEHIND ME LIKE THIS.
Adam: WELL, YEAH.
YOU PUT YOURSELF IN THE MOS VULNERABLE SPOT YOU COULD.
YOUR BACK ISN'T TO ANYTHING.
Amy: THIS IS VERY EXPOSED.
YEAH, SIT HERE.
JUST SIT HERE.
ADAM'S HILARIOUS.
HE WANTS TO ACTUALLY LAY WHERE I SLEPT THE WHOLE NIGH AND HAD SOME CRAZY EXPERIENCES.
GO RIGHTHE AAD.
-I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
-WELL, LET'S ALL WALK AWAY.
LET'S ALL -- LET'S GO BACK THIS WAY.
-LET'S LEAVE HIM ALONE.
-SEE YOU LATER, ADAM.
ALL RIGHT.
- LET'S WALK OUT FOR A SECOND.
OKAY.
JUST SO HE CAN EXPERIENCE IT.
HERE'S A RECDEORR.
-IS IT ON, THE RECORDER? -JUST DON'T SHUFFLE IT AROUND.
-YEAH, YEAH.
-UM, JUST HOLD IT STILL.
BUT LAY BACK.
JUST GET COMFORTABLE.
AND LET'S SEE HOW LONG YOU LAST.
Nick: AS ADAM LIES STILL WITH THE RECORDER ROLLING, WE HEAD TO A DISTANT WING SO WE WILL NOT CONTAMINATE WHATEVER EVIDENCE HE MAY CAPTURE.
HOW LONG YOU GIVE HIM? MAYBE 5 MINUTES.
OH.
MAYBE 5.
SO WHERE'D YOU -- WHERE'D YOU GUYS SEE -- DOWN AT THE VERY END DOWN HERE.
WE HAD HEARD THAT PEOPLE SEE THEM UP HERE QUITE A BIT.
AND SO WE JUST STOOD, NOT FAR FROM HERE ACTUALLY, AND JUST WATCHED THEM CROSS BACK AND FORTH DOWN AT THE END OF THAT HALLWAY FOR QUITE A WHILE.
IS THERE ANYBODY HERE? OH [BLEEP.]
[ DOOR OPENS .]
HERE HE COMES.
YOU WERE RIGHT.
I TOLD YOU.
YOU JUST FEEL LIKE - THERE'S SOMEBODY BEHIND YOU THE ENTIRE TIME, LIKE, GOING LIKE THIS.
YEAH.
LIKE, GOING LIKE THIS AND, LIKE, TRYING TO, LIKE, GET UP CLOSE TO WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
AND YOU'RE SO VULNERABLE.
THOSE WERE THE SAME EXACT THINGS THAT I SAID.
[ INDISTINCT TALKING .]
-WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? -I DON'T KNOW.
NOPE.
IT GOES -- IT GOES, "HELLO, ADAM.
" -NO.
-NO! -I SWEAR TO GOD.
-NO WAY! THAT'S WHAT IT SAYS.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
THAT'S WHAT I'M HEARING.
I JUST GOT CHILLS.
OH, IT DOES! IT SAYS, "HELLO, ADAM!" HOLY [BLEEP.]
I JUST GOT CHILLS SO BAD! HI.
I AM FLOORED BY THE EVP WE GO THAT SAYS, "HELLO,DA AM.
" THAT IS CLEAR AS DAY.
AND IT ALSO TELLS US THAT WHATEVEISR HERE IS NOT ONLY INTELLIGEN BUT ALSO REMEMBERS.
I'LL SLOW IT DOWN.
-WHOA! -OH, MY GOD.
DUDE! LIKE, WHAT? Nick: IT'S CLEAR THAT THE PARANORMAL ACTIVITY IS PEAKING.
AMY AND ADAM LEAVE SO WE CAN CONTINUE OUR CONFINEMENT, LEAVING ONLY KATRINA, ROB, AND ME IN THE ASYLUM.
WE HOPE THE VOICE THAT SAID, "HELLO, ADAM" WILL MANIFEST ITSELF TO US.
IT HONESTLY FEELS LIKE WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A HORROR MOVIE.
IT TOTALLY DOES, YEAH.
- DOESN'T IT? YES.
DO YOU FEEL ALRIL GHT? I DON'T THINK WE'RE ALONE RIGHT NOW.
[ GASPS .]
I TOTALLY JUST SAW SOMETHING.
I JUST GOT THE CHILLS.
I TOTALLY SAW THAT.
MY HEART IS RACING RIGHT NOW.
ARE YOU OKAY? YEAH.
MY HEART'S RACING.
ARE YOU ANXIETY.
ARE YOU NEXT TO NICK RIGHT NOW? ARE YOU GIVING HIM ANXIETY? NICK STARTS GETTING ALL THIS ANXIETY, LIKE HE CAN'T BREATHE.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM LIKE THAT, SO THAT IS SCARING ME A LITTLE BIT RIGHT NOW.
WHAT IHO TUGHT I SAW WAS JUST THIS STAND -- THIS -- I CAN'T EVEN TALK.
THIS MAN, LIKE, STANDING THERE, BUT ALL DARK.
BEING IN HERE FOR 3 DAYS, PUSHING OURSELF MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY TO OUR BREAKING POINT, IT'S EXHAUSTING.
BUT THAT'S WHEN WE SEEM TO REALIZE WE'RE CAPTURING EVIDENCE.
WHAT'S INTERESTING IS THAT WE WERE, LIKE, DEAD BACK THATAY W, AND WE SAW IT OVER HERE.
AND NOW THAT WE'RE HERE, NOTHING'S HAPPENING.
OH.
LIKE A PLAY -- IT SNEAKS UP ON YOU.
IT'S, LIKE, PLAYING.
YEAH, SNEAKING UP ON US.
I SAW SOMETHING GO IN FRONT OF THAT WINDOW.
THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND ABOUT THAT.
IT'S JUST WHAT IT WAS, I DO NOT KNOW.
AND I'M, LIKE, STILL, LIKE SHAKY FROM I A LITTLE BIT.
WHAT -- LET'S LOOK.
BUT I DON'T ARE YOU TRYING TO RUN AWAY FROM US? HOW ABOUT THIS? WALK BACKWARDS.
- SEE IF IT COMES UP, YOU KNOW? WHAT? Rob: HOLD ON A SEC.
WHAT IS THAT? WHAT? Nick: WE'VE NOW BEEN CFIONNED TO THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM FOR 64 HOURS.
IT'S LATE INTO OUR THIRD NIGHT, AND KATRINA, OUR CAMERAMAN, ROB, AND I ARE ALL EXPERIENCING A GROWING PARANORMAL PRESENCE CONCENTRATED ON THE FOURTH FLOOR.
YOU KNOW WHAT? Rob: HOLD ON A SEC.
WHAT IS THAT? WHAT? HOLD ON.
WHERE ARE YOU HEARING IT FROM, ROB? WHAT? WHERE ARE YOU LOOKING AT, ROB? WHAT'S THE MATTER? I SWEAR I JUST SAW SOMETHING DARK.
WHERE? WHERE? WHERE? WHAT? BACK THERE.
I CAN'T SEE.
WHAT? I THOUGHT I SAW SOMETHING MOVE ACROSS THAT BACK WALL.
IT WAS LIKE A GLOBE.
I CAN'T SEE [BLEEP.]
SHADY.
SHOW US.
SHOW US WHERE.
COME HERE.
-KEEP GOING.
-MY HEART'S RACING RIGHT NOW.
Rob: I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT WAS, MAN.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? YEAH.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
IT'S JUST SEEING ROB SHAKING, TELLING ME WHAT HE'S SEEING ON THE CAMERA, IT'S LITERALLY FREAKING ME OU BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE I WITH MY OWN EYES.
WE'RE IN PITCH DARKNESS, BUT ONLY ROB CAN SEE IT ON THESE HIGH-DEFINITION CAMERAS.
WHERE DID YOU SEE IT, ROB? POINT OUT Rob: KIND OF LIKE IF I'M IT.
YEAH.
LIKE, RIGHT THERE.
I'M LOOKING.
I'M RIGHT HERE.
KATRINA? GOD.
IT HAD SHAPE.
IT WASN'T JUST, LIKE, A MIST.
BUT IT WASN'T HUMAN? IT DIDN'T HAVE, LIKE, A GUFIRE? I'M SHAKING RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I JUST SAW.
-I DON'T KNOW.
-TALK -- TALK TO US.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? SO WE WERE LOOKING DOWN THAT WAY.
I THOUGHT I HEARD SOMETHING IN MY EAR, FOOTSTEPS BACK THERE.
AND THEN AS I ZOOMED IN ON YOU GUYS, MY FOCUS WEN TO THAT BACK WALL.
AND AT THAT VERY LAST SECOND, IT'S LIKE I THOUGHT -- LIKE, ALMOST LIKE A LARGE SNAKE OR LIZARD OR SOMETHING JUST KIND OF SLITHERED PAST.
DO YOU HAVE THE MONITOR ON YOU? CAN WE PLAY IT BACK? CAN WE PLAY IT BACK? YEAH.
LET'S PLAY IT BACK.
WATCH.
WATCH BACK HERE.
AND THAT'S WHEN I HEARD SOMETHING.
'CAUSE YOU CAN TELL.
THE FOCUS IS ALL OVER THE PLACE.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
NOW, WATCH.
RIGHT THERE.
[ GASPS .]
WHAT THE [BLEEP.]
IS THAT? WHERE? I CAN'T SEE.
-IT'S, LIKE -OH, MY GOD! THAT'S WHY I SAID IT'S LIKE A SNAKE.
YEAH.
I'M SHAKING RIGHT NOW JUST LOOKING AT THAT.
HERE.
SO WE'LL WATCH IT AGAIN.
SEE, HERE WE ARE.
AND IT'S RIGHT HERE - THAT I NOTICE THAT IT'S MOVING.
IT'S SLIDING RIGHT ACROSS, RIGHT TO LEFT.
AND NOW IT'S GONE.
WHAT IS THAT? WHATEVER SHAPE THAT WAS THAT I FIRST SAW -- I DIDN'T KNOW WH TATHE HELL YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT.
YEAH.
I WAS LIKE WHAT WAS THAT? THERE IT GOES.
OH, MY GOD.
WHOA.
IT JUST, LIKE -- IT LITERALLY -- IT SLITHERS.
WHAT'S WEIRD, TOO, IS THAT IT'S, LIKE -- IT'S THERE THE WHOLE TIME.
IT'S JUST HANGING OUT.
AND THEN IT WAS LIKE SHOOP! ROB, I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLOOR, RIGHT? IS THAT WHAT I'M SEEING? THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
THERE'S SOME WHITE BLOB.
AND THEN WHEN HE GETS CLOSE ON ME, HE'S FOCUSING ON ME.
AND THEN, LIKE, RIGHT AFTER THAT, IT STARTS TO MOVE.
IT'S JUST, LIKE, A SHADOW HANGING OUT BEHIND US, AND THEN IT SLITHERS AWAY.
IT'S DEFINITELY NO AN ANIMAL, RIGHT? NO, 'CAUSE WE WOULD'VE HEARD IT.
IT'S -- YEAH, EXACTLY.
IT CAN'T BE AN ANIMAL.
WE WOULD'VE HEARD IT.
WE WEREN' THAT FAR AWAY FROM IT.
AND EVEN IF IT WAS AN ANIMAL, WHAT KIND OF ANIMAL IS THAT HUGE? THAT SLITHERS? WITH NO SOUND? THAT, WHATEVER TT HAIS, IS SOMETHING -- SOMETHING ELSE.
WHAT WE'VE EXPERIENCED IN THIS HALL TONIGHT IS BIZARRE.
AND I DON'T HAVE A NATURAL EXPLANATION FOR ANY OF THAT RIGHT NOW.
I'VE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
IT'S FREAKING NUTS.
AM I LOSING MY MIND? NO.
NO.
SOMETHING'S HAPPENING UP HERE.
Nick: AS GREAT AS IT IS TO EXPERIENCE SOMETHING SO PROFOUND TOGETHER, AND AS PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTED AND MENTALLY SPENT AS I AM, I FEEL IT'S NECESSARY TO REMAIN UP HERE ALONE TO FACE THE SPIRI I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ALL THESE YEARS.
IT'S FRIGHTENING.
I WON'T LIE.
THIS IS ACTUALLY REALLY SCARY, BEING UP HERE ALONE IN COMPLETE DARKNESS, ONLY HAVING MY NIGHT-VISION CAMERA TO -- TO KIND OF SEE MY WAY.
I'M GONNA SHOW YOU WHAT I SEE.
COMPLETE DARKNESS.
YOU CAN SEE THE WINDOW AT THE END.
CAN YOU SHOW YOURSELF ONE MORE TIME? DID I JUST SEE YOU UP HERE? WERE YOU AT THE END OF THIS HALLWAY RIGHT HERE? ARE YOU IN HERE? WE DON'T MEAN TO DISRUPT YOU.
AFTER MANY HOURS ON MY OWN, THERE'S STILL NO SIGN OF WHATEVER THAT WAS THAT WE ENCOUNTERED EARLIER.
MAYBE IT KNOWS WE'RE APPROACHING OUR 72nd AND FINAL HOUR.
IT'S THE MORNING OF DAY 4, AND OUR UNNERVING CONFINEMEN HAS FINALLY COME TO AN END.
-I'M EXHAUSTED.
-O YH,EAH.
JUST THESE LAST 3 DAYS HAVE BEEN, LIKE, A WHIRLWIND.
WE'VE HAD ALL SORTS OF STUFF HAPPEN TO US.
I FEEL LIKE LIVING HERE FOR 3 DAYS, WE'VE FINALLY DONE JUSTICE, ESPECIALLY COMING BACK A SECOND TIME FOR ME.
YEAH.
I PERSONALLY FEEL SATISFIED.
LIVING AT A LOCATION FOR 3 DAYS, COMMUNICATING WITH SPIRITS, WITH THINGS THA WE DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND, IT'S FRIGHTENING.
PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOS INTENSE INVESTIGATIONS I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME.
HERE AT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM, NOT ONLY DID WE CONVERSE WITH MULTIPLE VOICES DON'T SAY A WORD.
WHOA! Nick: WE WERE PHYSICALLY ATTACKED STABBING PAIN IN MY HEAD.
AND MENTALLY BROKEN.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! 72 HOURS AGO, KATRINA AND I SET OUT TO FIND THE SHADOW FIGURE I HAD SEEN ON MY FIRST VISIT HERE.
WHAT? WAS IT THE CREEPER, A PHYSICAL FORM CREATED FROM THE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA OF THE ASYLUM, OR DID WE CAPTURE THE FIRST GLIMPSE OF AN ENTIRELY NEW ENTITY? [ GASPS .]
WHAT THE [BLEEP.]
IS THAT? Nick: IT WAS TOO DARK TO SEE WITH OUR EYES ALONE, BUT NEW TECHNOLOGY ALLOWED THE CAMERA TO HARNESS MULTIPLE LIGHT DYNAMICS TO FIND ITS HIDDEN, SLITHERING OUTLINE.
THE RESULT WAS BOTH TERRIFYING AND EXHILARATING.
AND IT MAKES ME REALIZE JUST HOW TRULY UNPREDICTABLE AND DANGEROUS THESE MISSIONS INTO THE UNKNOWN CAN BE.
THEY'RE COMING AT ME FROMLL A ANGLES.
ARE YOU OKAY? PATIENTS MUST'VE FELT SCARED TO BE IN THE DARKNESS.
I DON'T THINK WE'RE ALONE RIGHT NOW.
MY GOD.
I SAW SOMETHING - GO IN FRONT OF TT HAWINDOW.
THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND ABOUT THAT.
WHAT AM I DOING? [ GASPS .]
WHAT THE [BLEE IP.]
S THAT? AM I LOSING MY MIND? NO.
SOMETHING'S HAPPENING UP HERE.
ÃÃ Ã I'VE SEEN THE WAY Ã Ã THROUGH ALL THE PAIN Ã Ã I'VE WALKED THROUGH DARKNESS, FIRE, AND RAIN Ã Ã THEY FILL MY GRAVE Ã Ã BUT STILL MY SOUL REMAINS Ã Ã HERE BETWEEN HERE AND THE BEYOND Ã -- Captions by VITAC -- CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY DISCOVERY COMMUNICATIONS Narrator: THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM SITS ON 666 ACRES OF PURE HELL IN WESTON, WEST VIRGINIA.
ORIGINALLY DESIGNED TO HOUSE 240 PATIENTS WHEN IT OPENED IN 1864, AT ITS PEAK, IT HELD 2,400 MENTALLY ILL, CRIMINALLY INSANE AND NEUROLOGICALLY DAMAGED SOULS.
MEDICAL TREATMENTS WERE PRIMITIVE, AND PATIENTS WERE SUBJECTED TO BARBARIC PRACTICES -- LOBOTOMIES ISOLATION AND ELECTRIC SHOCK.
AFTER THE ASYLUM WAS SHUT DOWN IN 1994, ITS OWNERS ALLOWED A SELECT FEW PARANORMAL INVESTIGATORS INSIDE TO PLY THEIR TRADE.
SOME CLAIMED TO HEAR DISEMBODIED SCREAMS AND DOORS SLAMMING.
OTHERS, INCLUDING NICK, HAVE REPORTED SIGHTINGS OF SHADOW FIGURES MOVING THROUGH THE VAST HALLWAYS.
FOR KATRINA, IT'S HER FIRST TIME INSIDE THIS LOCATION.
FOR NICK, IT'S A RETURN TO A PLACE WHERE HE HAD ONE OF HIS MOS PROFOUND PARANORMAL EXPERIENCES.
ESPECIALLY IN THE FOURTH WARD UP THERE, I REMEMBER SEEING THIS SHADOW FIGURE DOWN THE HALLWAY.
AND THAT'S THE REAL REASON WHY WE'RE HERE.
WE NEED TO CAPTURE AND DOCUMEN THESE SHADOW PEOPLE.
THEY'RSOE SCARY.
ALL RIGHT.
- WELL, LET'S START INSTVEIGATING.
HERE WE GO.
Nick: THE MOMENT WE CROSS THIS TESHRHOLD OH, WOW.
OUR INVESTIGATION BEGINS.
FOR THE NEXT 72 HOURS, KATRINA AND I WILL BE CONFINED TO THESE LONG HALLWAYS AND ABANDONED TREATMENT WARDS.
IT WILL BE DARK, FILTHY, AND COLD.
BUT THOSE ARE JUS THE PHYSICAL CONDITIONS.
WHAT I'M WORRIED ABOU ARE THE UNSEEN FORCES THAT INHABIT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM.
WHILE MENTAL EXHAUSTION WILL OPEN OUR MINDS TO THE PARANORMAL WORLD, WE MAY BE TOO WEAK TO RESIS ANY PHYSICAL ATTACHMENTS BY THE SOULS WHO REMAIN HERE.
HOWEVER, THAT IS THE RISK WE'RE WILLING TO TAKE IN HOPES OF GATHERING GROUNDBREAKING PARANORMAL EVIDENCE.
WE START OUR INVESTIGATION ON THE FOURTH FLOOR, WHERE I SAW A DARK HUMANOID APPARITION, A SHADOW FIGURE, IN 2009.
Nick: DOWN THIS HALLWAY.
AND I SAW JUST THIS SHADOW JUST MOVE REALLY QUICKLY.
SO I CAUGHT I - OUT OF MY PERIPHERAL VISION.
SO WHAT WAS IT? WAS IT, LIKE, A FORM OF A PERSON? LIKE, A FIGURE, LIKE, AN OUTLINE, JUST ALL DARK.
AND IT JUST MOVED.
COMPLETELY BLACKED OUT, COULDN'T SEE THROUGH IT? YEAH.
SO IT WAS RIGHT AROUND IN THIS AREA I SAW IT.
AND YOU WERE STANDING HERE, OR IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY, YEAH, I WAS BACK THERE.
AND I SAW I AT THE END OF THIS HALL.
[ EXHALES DEEPLY .]
FEELS WEIRD BEING BACK.
SOME CHILLS - JUST THINKING ABOUT THAT.
ARE YOU EXCITED TO BE HERE FOR 3 DAYS? I FEEL ANXIOUS UP HERE.
I'M SCARED OF THIS PLACE.
YEAH, I KNOW.
YOU WERE SAYING YOU WERE HAVING NIGHTMARES.
I DID HAVE ONE NIGHTMARE THE NIGHT BEFORE WE GOT HERE, AND THE ONLY THING I REMEMBER FROM I WAS THAT I WAS IN THIS DARK HALLWAY AND I JUST STARTED HYPERVENTILATING UNCONTROLLABLY.
WE HAVE 3 DAYS HERE.
WE'RE GONNA BE INVESTIGATING FOR A LONG TIME.
I WANT TO TRY TO SEE IF THERE'S ANY OTHER BUILDINGS THAT I HAVEN' INVESTIGATED YET.
Nick: TRANS-ALLEGHENY CONSISTS OF 13 BUILDINGS, SO IT'S ESSENTIAL WE COME UP WITH A CONCRETE PLAN OF ATTACK.
SO THERE'S A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER.
YEAH, THIS PLACE IS HUMONGOUS.
I'VE BEEN ALL OVER THIS WHOLE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE BUILDING.
BUT THIS BUILDING I HAVEN'T BEEN IN YET.
SO I HEARD A LOT OF STORIES ABOUT THAT LOCATION.
POSSIBLY COULD HAVE SOME OF THE THINGS WE'RE LOOKING FOR, MAYBE SHADOW FIGURES.
THAT'S THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUILDING, AND DUE TO ITS DETERIORATING CONDITION, IT HAS BEEN OFF-LIMITS.
REBECCA GLEASON, THE OWNER OF THE ASYLUM, HAS AGREED TO ALLOW US FIRST-TIME ACCESS INTO THIS UNCHARTED TERRITORY.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR THOSE APPARITIONS, THOSE SHADOW FIGURES.
PART OF THE NEATEST STUFF WE HAVE HERE ARE THOSE GUYS GOING FROM ROOM TO ROOM.
NOW, THIS ONE THAT WE'RE WALKING TO IS THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUILDING, AND IT'S THE SECOND-OLDES BUILDING ON THE PROPERTY.
WOW.
THIS IS AMAZING.
I STOPPED FOR A SECOND.
I HESITATED.
'CAUSE ICT AUALLY THOUGHT I SAW SOMEBODY STAND IN THE DOOR.
AND I THOUGH IT WAS OUR CAMERAMAN, BUT I HAD TO DO, LIKE, A DOUBLE-TAKE.
YEAH.
I SAW SOMEONE STAND HERE, LI, KENO JOKE, JUST STANDING HERE LIKE THIS.
IT WAS ALL SOLID.
- THAT'S WHY I ASKED ABOUT, IS -- DO YOU SEE SOLID FIGURES, OR DO YOU JUST SEE APPARITIONS OF FIGURES? SHADOW FIGURES ARE SEEN A LOT.
IT ALWAYS SEEMS LIKE IT'S OUT OF THE CORNER OF YOUR EYE.
BEFORE WE LEAVE, I WANT TO DO SOMETHING WITH YOU BECAUSE I'M STILL CAUGHT UP ON, LIKE, THIS THING THAT I SAW OVER THERE.
HERE.
I'M GONNA GIVE YOU THIS RECORDER.
HIT RECORD.
WATHS ERE A MAN, OR WAS THERE SOMEBODY STANDING INSIDE THAT ROOM OVER THERE? DID I JUST SEE YOU? DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE DEAD? Nick: WHAT DO YOU FEEL RIGHT NOW? LIKE WE'RE BEING WATCHED.
DO YOU FEEL, LIKE, GOOSEBUMPS, LIKEEL, ECTRICITY? YEP.
I FELT THAT, TOO, ALL OF A SUDDEN, JUST COME UP BEHIND ME, LIKE ELECTRICITY.
SEE? LOOK AT THE HAIR.
OH, WOW.
YEAH.
YOU HAVE GOOSEBUMPS ALL OVER YOUR ARMS.
LET ME STOP THIS, PLAY IT BACK REALLY QUICK.
WAS THERE A MAN, OR WAS THERE SOMEBODY STANDING INSIDE THAT ROOM OVER THERE? DID I JUST SEE YOU? [ INDISTINCT TALKING .]
THAT WAS WEIRD.
WAS THERE SOMEBODY STANDING INSIDE THAT ROOMVE OR THERE? DID I JUST SEE YOU? -YES.
-YES? DO YOU KNOW THAT YOU'RE DEAD? WHOA.
THAT SAID NO! DID YOU HEAR THAT? -WOW.
-FELT THAT ELECTRICITY YEAH.
- THAT WAS SO CLEAR.
THAT'S SO COOL! THAT'S AWESOME.
SO AWESOME.
- I LOVE IT.
BUT THAT'S SO CREEPY.
LIKE, WE FELT THAT, THE ENERGY COME UP ON US.
AND YOU WERE HAVING THE SENSATION.
YOU WERE FEELING SOMETHING AND PICKING UP EMOTIONALLY ON SOMETHING.
THE SPIRIT'S CONNECTING WITH US ALREADY.
WE HAVE A LOT AHEAD OF US.
YOU WANT TO GET GOING? YEAH.
I WANT TO STAR INVESTIGATING MORE.
GETTING AN INTELLIGENT RESPONSE THIS QUICKLY AND IN THE DAYTIME IS EXCITING.
I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT WE WILL FIND WHEN WE ARE CONFINED HERE AT NIGHT.
BUT NOW, TO LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT THIS PLACE WAS LIKE WHEN IT WAS OINPERATION, WE MEET FORMER EMPLOYEE BETH NEASE, WHO WAS HERE ON THE DAY TWO PATIENTS WERE BRUTALLY MURDERED.
SHE HAS NOT SEEN NOR STEPPED FOOT INSIDE THE ASYLUM IN OVER 30 YEARS.
WOW.
THE GRAND OLD DAME STILL STANDS.
[ LAUGHS .]
Nick: SO ARE YOU READY TO GO INSIDE? [ Voice breaking .]
IT'S GONNA BE VERY EMOTIONAL TO DO THIS.
I'M ANXIOUS TO SEE THE PLACE, AND MEMORIES JUST ARE FLOODING.
LET'S DO IT.
Katrina: WHEN WE TALK TO SOMEBODY THAT WAS ACTUALLY THERE, IT BRINGS IN A HUMAN ELEMEN THAT SOMETIMES, AS RESEARCHERS, WE LOSE.
IT'S NOT JUST PAPER AND WORDS AND DATES.
IT BECOMESSOULS.
THIS IS WARD F, AND IT WAS PART OF WHAT'S CALLED THE SECURITY UNIT.
THIS IS WHERE WE HAD THE DANGEROUS PATIENTS.
THEY HAD EITHER KILLED OTHERS, HAD HARMED OTHERS SEVERELY.
THIS IS WHERE THE MURDER TOOK PLACE, IN THIS ROOM.
THERE WERE T MWOURDERERS AND TWO PEOPLE THAT WERE MURDERED.
AND THEY HUNG THEM.
AND THEY DID NOT DIE, SO THEY BROUGHT THEM BACK DOWN.
AND THEY TOOK METAL FROM THE, UH -- FROM THE FRAME OF THE METAL BEDS, PIECES OF METAL, AND PLUNGED IT THROUGH THEIR HEADS TO KILL THEM.
DID YOU KNOW THESE GUYS? YES.
I KNEW ALL FOUR OF THEM.
I DID.
THE ONE MAN WHO WAS A MURDERER WAS A SERIAL KILLER.
HE HAD MURDERED, UH, PRIOR TO COMING IN HERE.
WHAT WAS HE LIKE? HE WAS FRIGHTENING.
HE HAD AND -- AND YOU MIGH LAUGH AT ME.
BUT HE HAD BLACKNESS OF AN EVILNESS ABOUT HIM.
SO WHAT ABOUT THE -- THE MEN WHO WERE MURDERED? THEY WERE BOTH CHILDREN, AS FAR AS THEIR MIND CAPACITY WAS CONCERNED.
I HAVE A FRIEND WHO -- WHO WAS IN RECREATION, AND SHE HAD BEEN ON THE UNI THAT MORNING WITH THESE PATIENTS.
THE TWO THAT HAD BEEN MURDERED, UH, HAD SET AT HER FEE AND COLORED THAT MORNING, 'CAUSE THAT WAS ALL THEY COULD DO.
THEY WERE JUST HELPLESS, COMPLETELY HELPLESS.
YES, THEY WERE.
AS BETH IS TELLING US THE STORY OF THE MURDER, IT'S JUST BREAKING MY HEAR PIECE BY PIECE.
EVERYTHING WAS HAPPY.
EVERYTHING WAS GOOD.
THEY HAD NO WORRIES.
AND THEN, THIS HORRIBLE THING HAPPENS TO THEM, AND NOBODY WAS THERE TO PROTECT THEM.
IT WAS HD ARTO HEAR.
Nick: BETH'S MEMORY REPRESENTS JUST ONE OF HUNDREDS OF STORIES OF THE LIVES LIVED AND LOS HERE AT THE ASYLUM.
BUT IT BRINGS US ONE STEP CLOSER TO UNDERSTANDING WHO WE MIGHT COMMUNICATE WITH DURING OUR STAY.
AS THE SUN SETS, OUR CONFINEMENT BEGINS.
FROM HERE ON OUT, IT'S ONLY ME, KATRINA, AND OUR CAMERAMAN, ROB, ARMED WITH A STATE-OF-THE-AR 6K HIGH-DEFINITION INFRARED CAMERA.
WE IMMEDIATELY RETURN TO WARD F AND THE ROOM WHERE TWO INNOCENT PATIENTS WE MREURDERED 30 YEARS AGO.
OUR GOAL IS TO CONNEC WITH THESE VICTIMS.
I'M REAL EXCITED TO USE THIS GEOBOX.
GEORGE BROWN INVENTED IT.
HE CREATED THIS.
HE DESIGNED I SPECIFICALLY FOR US.
WE HAVE THE E ONAND ONLY.
IT ACTUALLY TAPS INTO THREE DIFFERENT FREQUENCIES.
YOU HAVE EMF, VIBRATIONAL WAVE, AND ALSO RADIO FREQUENCY THAT IT'S ALLOWING SPIRITS TO COME THROUGH AND COMMUNICATE.
SOOP HEFULLY, SOME OF THE SPIRITS CAN TALK WITH US THROUGH THIS.
[ STATIC .]
SO LET'S SEE IF WE CAN COMMUNICATE.
HELLO? - IS THERE ANYONE IN HERE WITH US? SO YOU GONNA LAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR? I'M JUST GONNA LAY DOWN ON THE FLOOR.
I ASK KATRINA TO LIE IN THE SAME POSITION AS THE MEN WERE IN RIGHT BEFORE THEY WERE MURDERED, PIHONG TO GET AN INTELLIGEN RESPONSE FROM THE GEOBOX.
[ STATIC .]
IT SAID, "NICK.
" IT GOES, "NICK?" IS THAT WHAT THAT WAS? IT SAID, "NICK.
" Nick: WE'RE 12 HOURS INTO OUR 72-HOUR LKDOCOWN AT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM IN WEST VIRGINIA.
KATRINA AND I ARE ATTEMPTING TO REACH THE SPIRITS OF TWO MURDERED VICTIMS IN WARD F.
IT SAID, "NICK.
" WAS THERE SOMEONE - WHO WAS KILLED IN THIS ROOM? DID THAT JUST SAY, "COME WITH US"? GETTING A RESPONSE COMING THROUGH INTELLIGENTLY IN REAL TIME, IT BLOWS MY MIND AWAY.
DID THAT JUST SAY, "COME WITH US"? [ STATIC .]
AFTER 2 HOURS WITH NO FURTHER INTELLIGENT RESPONSES AND THE NIGHT WEARING ON, WE DECIDE TO HEAD UP TO THE FOURTH FLOOR, WHERE I SAW A SHADOW FIGURE BACK IN 2009.
Nick: ARE YOU AT THE END OF THE HALL? WHAT WAS THAT? KATRINA, WAS THAT YOU? I KNOW.
I HEARD THAT.
YOU HEARD THAT, ROB? IT JUST SOUNDED LIKE, "SHH.
" -YES.
-I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING.
IT WAS, LIKE, RIGHT HERE.
IT WAS RIGHT WHEN WE WERE PASSING THESE DOORS.
I HEARD SOMEONE GO, "SHH.
" THAT'S WHAT I HEARD.
THAT'S WHY I TURNED AROUND.
I WAS LIKE I THOUGHT THAT WAS YOU OR SOMETHING.
HONESTLY, LIKE, I'M SCARED.
ARE YOU? I'M ACTUALLY SCARED THINKING THAT I SHOULD SLEEP HUPERE.
I WILL NOT LIE.
I'M REALLY NERVOUS ABOUT IT.
MY INSTINCTS ARE TELLING ME THERE'S SOMETHING POWERFUL HERE ON THE FOURTH FLOOR.
SO BEFORE I COMMI TO WHERE I'LL SLEEP TONIGHT, I'M GOING TO DO A DIGITAL VOICE RECORDER SESSION TO SEE IF THERE'S A CHANCE I CAN MAKE CONTAC WHEN I'M ALONE AND IN A VULNERABLE STATE.
IT'S SCARY FOR ME WALKING AROUND BY MYSELF IN THE DARKNESS.
IS IT SCARY FOR YOU? KATRINA, COME IN HERE.
IT'S SCARYOR F ME WALKING AROUND BY MYSELF IN THE DARKNESS.
IS IT SCARY FOR YOU? RIGHT THERE.
COMPLETELY SILENT.
I DIDN'T MOVE.
I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING.
IT'S SCARY FOR ME WALKING AROUND BY MYSELF IN THE DARKNESS.
IS IT SCARY FOR YOU? YEP.
PATIENTS, PEOPLE - THAT WERE ONCE LIVINHEG RE, MUST'VE FELT SCARED TO BE IN THE DARKNESS, DISAUTRGHT, NOT UNDERSTANDING WHAT'S GOING ON, CONFUSED.
THIS LOCATION, IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOU JUST FEEL THAT -- THAT ENERGY AND SADNESS.
NOW THAT I KNOW THERE'S A PRESEN HCEERE ON THE FOURTH FLOOR IN THE WES WING OF THE MAIN BUILDING, I DECIDE IT'S A GOOD PLACE TO SPEND THE NIGHT.
OUR CAMERAMAN, ROB, LEAVES THE FACILITY TO GET SOME MUCH-NEEDED REST, AND KATRINA HEADS BACK TO THE THIRD FLOOR TO SET UP HER BED IN THE MURDER ROOM.
WE ARE NOW COMPLETELY ISOLATED IN THE DARKNESS.
THIS IS THE ROOM WHERE EARLIER TONIGH I FELT REALLY, REALLY SAD.
BEST WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT, IN THIS ROOM IT JUST FEELS LIKE EMPTINESS, LIKE YOU HAVE NO HOPE INSIDE OF YOU.
WHOA.
I'M ALL BY MYSELF NOW.
I NEED TO SLEEP, BUT MY MIND IS MY FIRST LINE OF DEFENSE.
IF I LET MY GUARD DOWN TO REST, I COULD BE ATTACKED BY AN ENTITY SEEKING ENTRY INTO THIS WORLD.
I'M ALREADY FEELING ENERGY ALL AROUND ME, ENERGY I CAN'T SEE.
I FEEL LIKE THEY'RE COMING AT ME FROM ALL ANGLES, FROM FRONT, FROM BACK, FROM SIDE TO SIDE, FROM THESE ROOMS.
IS THERE SOMEBODY HERE? WHILE MY CAMERA CAPTURES THIS IMAGE OF ME IN THE INFRARED NIGHT VISION, I AM SEEING ONLY TOTAL BLACKNESS.
I'M KEEPING MY SHOES ON JUST IN CASE I HAVE TO GET UP AND MOVE QUICKLY.
OH, MY GOD.
HERE WE GO.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! I'M SITTING UP IN MY BED, AND I'M LOOKING AROUND.
AND I JUST FEEL THIS ENERGY RUSH UP BEHIND ME AND THIS LOUD BANG JUS RESONATE THROUGH THE HALLWAY.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! Nick: AFTER INVESTIGATING THE FOUR FTHLOOR OF THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM, KATRINA AND I HAVE SPLIT UP.
WE'RE ALONE IN SEPARATE AREAS OF THE MAIN BUILDING, ATTEMPTING TO MAKE CONTAC WITH THE OTHER SIDE, WHEN I'M JOLTED BY A BIG BANG DIRECTLY BEHIND ME.
I'M SITTING UP IN MY BED, AND I'M LOOKING AROUND.
AND I JUST FEEL THIS ENERGY RUSH UP BEHIND ME AND THIS LOUD BANG JUST RESONATE THROUGH THE HALLWAY.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! I HAVE TO TELL MYSELF, "DON'T RUN.
DON'T MOVE.
STAND YOUR GROUND.
LAY DOWN.
IT'S ALL RIGHT.
" SOMETHING IS HERE WITH ME.
BUT TONIGHT, I WANT TO OBSERVE IT, WHATEVER IT IS.
TOO MUCH ACTIVITY FROM ME, AND I MIGHT SCARE IT AWAY.
I AM EXHAUSTED.
UGH.
THIS IS WHERE I SLEPT.
HONESTLY, IN ONE OF THE MOS HAUNTED PLACES IN AMERICA.
THIS IS PROBABLY ONE OF THE CREEPIEST HALLWAYS I'VE EVER SLEPT IN.
HERE'S THE FRONT PAR OF THE BUILDING.
DURING THE DAY, IT'S HAUNTED, TOO.
THAT'S WHY I LOVE INVESTIGATING 24/7, AROUND THE CLOCK, 3 DAYS STRAIGHT.
I'M GONNA TRY SOMETHING REALLYUI QCK.
ROLLING ON THE RECORDER.
IS THERE ANYBODY DOWN HERE? ARE YOU WALKING BEHIND ME? STOPPING.
IS THERE ANYBODY DOWN HERE? KIND OF WEIRD.
I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT SAYS, BUT SOMETHING THERE.
YOU GET UP OUT OF YOUR BED WHERE YOU SLEPT, RIGHTHE TRE.
AND YOU WALK AROUND, AND YOU START ASKING QUESTIONS TO THE SPIRITS.
AND WE'LL CALL THAT ONE THE PARANORMAL WAKE-UP.
LET'S GO SEE IF KATRINA'S UP.
EVEN DURING THE DAY, WALKING AROUND IS CREEPY.
ALL RIGHT.
NOW, WE'RE IN THE THIRD FLOOR.
-HI.
-HEY.
Nick: HEY, WERE YOU WALKING DOWN THE HALL? NO.
- DID YOU EVER GET UP? NO.
YOU'RE KIDDING ME.
- NO.
I HEARD -- - AND I THOUGHT YOU WERE UP.
I HEARD THAT TYPE OF, LIKE, NURSES' SHOES, LIKE, WALKING DOWN THE HALLWAY.
SO WOULD YOU, UH, DO ME THE HONORS AND COME INVESTIGATE DURING THE DAY WITH ME? I'D LOVE TO.
Nick: RIGHT HERE.
I HEARD SOMEBODY WALKING UP THIS HALLWAY RIGHT HERE.
OH, WEIRD.
IT WAS HD ARTO BREATHE WHEN YOU WALKED IN HERE? YEAH, - I JUST FELT, UH, ASTHMA, LIKE WHEN YOU HAVE ASTHMA, AND IT'S LIKE -- IT'S LIKE THAT THICK AIR THAT YOU'RE TRYING TO BREATHE.
I WOULD LOVE TO PLAY GAMES.
AND I WOULD LOVE TO STAY HERE ALL MORNING AND PLAY GAMES WITH YOU.
WHAT KIND OF GAME WOULD YOU WANT TO PLAY? WHAT KIND OF GAME WOULD YOU WANT TO PLAY? [ INDISTINCT TALKING .]
I THINK IT'S IS IT SAYING "BITCH" ON THERE? YES.
IT IS.
LIKE, "SHUT UP, BITCH"? IT'S LIKE YEAH, IT SAYS, "SOMETHING, SOMETHING, BITCH.
" THAT'S A REALLY GOOD VOICE.
YEAH.
THAT'S REALLY CLEAR.
AND IT'S WEIRD 'CAUSE YOU SAID YOU FELT ASTHMATIC IN HERE.
AND YOU FELT HEAVY IN THE CHES AND THEN SUDDENLY WOW.
THAT WAS CREEPY.
I WAS NOT EXPECTING THA DURING THE DAY.
Nick: BUT IN A PLACE LIKE TRANS-ALLHEEGNY, THE UNEXPECTED IS COMMON.
SO WE HEAD DOWNSTAIRS TO GRAB SOME FOOD, MEET BACK UP WITH ROB, AND REVIEW THE FOOTAGE OF ME FROM LAST NIGHT.
I'M WICKED EXHAUSTED.
BUT WHAT'S CRAZY IS - I HAD THIS BURST OF ENERGY, BECAUSE I KNOW TODAY IS GONNA BE EVEN MORE EXCITING.
YEAH.
HERE'S ME LAYING OUT.
[ LOUD BAN G .]
RIGHT THERE.
OH! - YOU HEAR IT? WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? WHAT WE'RE DOING IS NUTS.
YOU EVER THINK ABOU HOW WE'RE SKATING ON THIN ICE A LITTLE BIT? YEAH, ALL THE TIME.
WE DON'T KNOW WHAT WE'RE MESSI WNGITH.
YOU READY TO GO? - YEAH.
ALL RIGHT.
Nick: BY THE TIME WE RECHARGE OUR CAMERA BATTERIES AND PREP OUR GEAR, NIGHT HAS FALLEN IN WEST VIRGINIA.
WE DECIDE TO HEAD BACK TO THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUDIILNG, WHERE YESTERDAY, AS THE FIRST PARANORMAL TEAM EVER ALLOWED INSIDE, WE CAPTURED VOICE EVIDENCE WITH REBECCA.
THIS TIME, WE'RE BRINGING THE GEOBOX TO SEE IF WE CAN MAKE DIRECT CONTACT.
AFTER YOU.
- THANK YOU.
UGH.
HELLO? WE'RE BACK.
[ STATIC .]
IF THERE'S ANYONE HERE, CAN YOU WALK ON OVER -- OVER TO OUR VOICE AND SAY SOMETHING? THIS DEVICE ISN'T GONNA HURT YOU.
HELLO? HELLO? THERE'S A WOMAN THAT SAID, "HELLO.
" DO YOU WAN TO TALK TO US? DON'T SAY A WORD.
THAT'S WHA IT JUST SAID.
A MAN JUST CAME THROUGH AND GOES, "DON'T SAY A WORD.
" DO YOU WAN TO TALK TO US? DON'T SAY A WORD.
THAT'S WHAT IT JUST SAID.
THAT JUST GAVE ME ILCHLS.
IT DID ON ME, TOO.
IT WAS IT'S ALMOST LIKE HE WAS TELLING HER HER.
DON'T SAY A WORD.
THAT'S WHAT I GOT, TOO.
YOU CAN TALK TO US.
- YOU DON'T HAVE TO LISTEN TO HIM.
NO.
HE GOES, "NO.
" NO? WHY CAN'T SHE TALK TO US? I'M TELLING YOU.
I HEARD THAT.
I'M GETTING CHILLS, LIKE, GOOSEBUMPS.
WHY ARE YOU NOT ALLOWING HER TO TALK TO US? IF YOU GUYS CAN SAY MY NAME, KATRINA, I'LL LEAVE.
AND I WON'T ASK HER TO KEEP TALKING.
KATRINA.
- NO, IT DID NOT.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
THAT JUST SAID KATRINA.
HE GOES, "KATRINA.
" OH, MY GOD.
- WANT ME TO PLAY IT BACK? YEAH, YEAH, YEAH.
- I SWEAR.
THAT JUST SAID KATRINA.
YEAH.
LET'S CHECK THIS OUT.
RIGHT THERE.
YEAH.
YOU CAN HEAR IT.
HERE.
IT'S QUICK.
HE'S LIKE, "KATRINA.
" YEAH.
WHEN MY NAME CAME OUT OF THAT GEOBOX, I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT AT FIRST.
AND I'M LISTENING BACK TO OUR RECORDING OF IT.
AND YOU CAN.
YOU CAN HEAR "KATRINA.
" IF YOU GUYS CAN SAY MY NAME, KATRINA, I'LL LEAVE.
AND I WON'T ASK HER TO KEEP TALKING.
KATRINA! - NO, IT DID NOT.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
THAT JUST SAID KATRINA.
IT'S ALMOST LIKE THEY'RE STARTING TO GET FAMILIAR WITH US FOR US BEING HERE AS LONG AS WE HAVE BEEN.
ALL RIGHT.
LET'S GO BACK OVER TO THE MAIN BUILDING, BECAUSE YOU PROMISED THE SPIRI IF IT SAID YOUR NAME, WE'D LEAVE.
I DID PROMISE.
ALL RIGHT.
I'M GOING TO ABIDE BY THAT.
THANK YOU.
Nick: KEEPING KATRINA'S PROMISE TO THE SPIRITS, WE LEAVE THE WOMEN'S AUXILIARY BUILDING AND MAKE OUR WAY TO THE MEDICAL BUILDING.
THIS FACILITY HOUSES THE MORGUE, THE LAST STOP FOR THOSE PATIENTS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES AT THE ASYLUM, INCLUDING THE VICTIMS OF THAT GRUESOME MURDER.
DID YOU GET ANYTHING WHEN YOU WERE IN HERE? YEAH.
I HAD TO LAY IN THE MORGUE, WHICH SUCKED.
OH, WOW.
- IT'S PRETTY WELL-PRESERVED.
YEAH, RIGHT HERE.
HERE IT IS.
THIS IS THE MORGUE? - THERE IT IS.
OH [BLEEP.]
NO.
IT'S A COFFIN? THAT'S A REAL COFFIN? YEAH, I THINK IT'S REAL.
YOU LAID IN HERE? - YEAH.
[ Chuckling .]
WHAT? YEAH, THE BOTTOM PART.
MAN.
THIS BRINGS BACK MEMORIES, THIS THING RIGHT HERE.
Nick: WHEN I VISITED THE ASYLUM YEARS AGO, I LAID ON THE MORGUE SLAB TO TRY TO FEEL WHAT IT WAS LIKE WHEN A SOUL PASSES ON.
I'M THINKING THIS WOULD BE A GOOD SPO TO CHALLENGE KATRINA TO SPEND THE NIGHT.
I'M HAVING, LIKE, A PAIN IN MY CHEST.
FEELS LIKE, UM, PINCHING OR STABBING.
REALLY? Nick: IT'S LATE ON NIGHT 2 OF OUR 72-HOUR LOCKDOWN, AND KATRINA AND I ARE IN THE ASYLUM'S DECREPIT OLD MORGUE.
IT'S BEEN MORE THAN 20 YEARS SINCE THE LAST BODY LAY HERE, BUT THEIR SPIRITS MAY STILL LINGER.
AND AS WE NEAR A STATE OF TOTAL EXHAUSTION, WE ARE MORE SUSCEPTIBLE TO THEIR PRESENCE AND POSSIBLY POSSESSION.
I'M FEELING PAIN ON MY CHES RIGHT HERE ON MY LEFT SIDE.
FEELS LIKE, UM, PINCHING OR STABBING.
WE'RE IN THIS CREEPY OLD MEDICAL BUILDING.
AND I WALK IN, AND IMMEDIATELY I'M HAVING THESE CHEST PAINS.
AND I KNOW MY BODY WELL ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN SOMETHING IS ME OR WHEN I'M BEING INFLUENCED BY SOMETHING THAT'S HERE.
AAH.
WHAT'S A MATTER, KATRINA? IT'S, LIKE IT'S CRAZY, LIKE, - A STABBING PAIN IN MY HEAD.
DO YOU THINK YOU WERE FEELING MAYBE THE IMPRINT OF A LOBOTOMY? I'VE BEEN TO LOCATIONS BEFORE WHERE PHYSICALLY I PICK UP ON HOW SOMEBODY DIED OR SOMETHING TRAUMATIC.
Nick: KATRINA'S EXHAUSTED STATE SEEMS TO BE MANGKI HER MORE VULNERABLE TO THE SPIRITS AROUND US, WHICH IS A PERFECT TIME TO PUSH OURSELVES EVEN FURTHER.
WE DECIDE TO SPLIT UP AND GO SOLO ONCEGA AIN.
I HEAD TO THE LOBOTOMY RECOVERY ROOM.
KATRINA ACCEPTS MY CLLHAENGE AND AGREES TO LIE ON THE MORGUE SLAB.
INTERNALLY, I'M FREAKING OUT RIGHT NOW, TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, UM, 'CAUSE I'M IN A MORGUE AT LIKE 3:00 A.
M.
SO, UM, I'M JUST GONNA GO IN THERE, SEE IF I GET ANYTHING.
Nick: 3:00 A.
M.
IS WHAT'S KNOWN AS THE DEVIL'S HOUR.
IT'S DOCUMENTED THA MOST DEATHS OCCUR AT THIS TIME, AND IT'S BELIEVED THAT PARANORMAL ENERGY IS AT ITS PEAK.
OKAY.
THERE WAS ONLY ONE TIME IN MY LIFE I EVER WANTED TO BE ON ONE OF THESE.
AND THAT'S, LIKE, I -- EVEN IN MY HEAD, THAT'S LIKE 80 YEARS FROM NOW.
IT'S LIKE YOUR HEART RACES.
LIKE, I'M SHAKING.
I'M LITERALLY SHAKING.
IT'S SO CREEPY THINKING ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE WERE IN HERE THROUGHOUT THE YEARS.
THAT IN AND -- IN AND OF ITSELF IS FRIGHTENING.
I THINK I'M HEARING FOOTSTEPS OUTSIDE, AND I CAN'T SEE ANYTHING.
[ TAPPING .]
I'M TOTALLY HEARING FOOTSTEPS.
CRAP.
MAYBE YOU CAN JUST BANG.
[ METAL RATTLES .]
[ METAL CLANGS .]
OOH! WHAT WAS THAT? I THINK IT WAS ME.
LIKE NICK ON NIGHT 1, I TRIED TO REMAIN CALM AND ENCOURAGE WHOEVER OR WHATEVER IS ACTING OU TO REMAIN IN THE ROOM WITH ME.
I'LL KEEP MY CAMERA RECORDING AS I TRY TO CATCH AN HOUR OF SLEEP.
THIS BASEMENT IS SO CREEPY.
I'M ALREADY HEARING WEIRD VOICES AND SHUFFLING NOISES.
I DON'T KNOW HOW I'M GONNA SLEEP DOWN HERE.
I'M COMPLETELY ALONE, I'M COLD, THIS FLOOR IS FILTHY, AND I'M FEELING DELIRIOUS WITH FEAR AND EXHAUSTION.
BUT THIS IS WHERE I WILL BED DOWN FOR THE NIGHT, WITH NOTHING MORE THAN MY CAMERA AND A DIGITAL VOICE RECORDER, HOPING TO CAPTURE WHAT I HAVE SEEN HERE BEFORE, A SHADOW FIGURE.
[ TAPPING .]
THERE'S SOMEONE WALKING OVER HERE RIGHT NOW.
I'M BY MYSELF.
THERE'S SOMEONE WALKING.
THEY KEEP WALKING, SHUFFLING THEIR FEET.
MY GOD.
WHAT AM I DOING? THIS IS STUPID.
IT'S THE MORNING OF DAY 3, AND WE STILL HAVEN'T SEEN A SHADOW FIGURE.
I DECIDE TO ENLIS THE HELP OF TWO FRIENDS WHO HAVE ALSO WITNESSED A SHADOW FIGURE WHILE INVESTIGATING HERE.
ACTING AS TRIGGER OBJECTS, MAYBE THEIR PRESENCE WILL BRING IT BACK.
-HEY.
-WELL, WELL, WELL.
HI! AMY BRUNI AND ADAM BERRY ARE GOOD FRIENDS OF MINE.
THEY'RE PARANORMAL INVESTIGATS.
OR I'M SO EXCITED YOU GUYS CAME HERE.
I KNOW! - WE ARE SO HAPPY TO BE HERE.
THIS IS ONE OF OUR FAVORITE PLACES.
-WELCOME BACK.
-THANK YOU.
SO ARE YOU READY TO INVESTIGATE WITH US? YEAH.
WELL, THERE'S A LOT OF GROUND TO COVER.
WE'VE HAD A LOT OF THINGS HAPPEN HERE.
WE'VE BEEN HERE MANY TIMES.
DOWN THIS HALLWAY, - THERE'S A LITTLE KITCH AENREA THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THERE LAST TIME WE WERE HERE.
-LET'S GO THERE FIRST.
-ALL RIGHT.
WE'RE HERE TO TRY TO CAPTURE APPARITIONS.
WE -- EVERYWHERE WE -- - SHH.
I DID HEAR THAT.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? Nick: FELLOW PARANORMAL INVESGATITORS AMY BRUNI AND ADAM BERRY HAVE JOINED KATRINA AND ME AT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM.
TOGETHER, WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO CAPTURE EVIDENCE OF SHADOW FIGURES THAT ROAM THESE HAUNTED HALLS.
WE'RE HERE TO TRY TO CAPTURE APPARIOITNS.
WE -- EVERYWHERE WE -- - SHH.
I DID HEAR THAT.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? YEAH.
A WHISPER OR SOMETHING? I HEARD, LIKE, A FULL-ON "S" HHSOUND.
IT WAS A FULL-ON, LIKE LIKE SOMETHING WAS SHUSHING US.
LIKE, A SHUSH.
REMEMBER FROM LAST NIGHT? YEAH.
- YOU SAID THE SAME THING.
WAIT.
YOU GUYS GOT SHUSHED? ACTUALLY, YOU HEARD IT FIRST.
Amy: THAT'S WHAT I JUST -- WELL, THAT SOUND WE JUST HEARD SOUNDED LIKE A "SHH.
" Nick: AFTER EXPERIENCING THE SAME VOICE PHENOMENON WITH AMY AND ADAM, I DECIDE TO TAKE THEM UP TO THE FOURTH FLOOR, WHERE I SAW MY SHADOW FIGURE IN 2009 AND WHERE I SPEN A RESTLESS FIRST NIGHT.
DO YOU THINK YOU SLEPT AT ALL? UH, LIKE, MAYBE AN HOUR.
WAIT.
YOU JUST SLEP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HALLWAY? IT WAS SO SCARY - 'CAUSE MY HEAD WAS HERE, AND MY FEE AND THAT CAMERA -- I-I COULDN'T SEE ANYTHING.
SO I WAS SO SCARED THAT SOMETHING WAS GONNA COME UP BEHIND ME LIKE THIS.
Adam: WELL, YEAH.
YOU PUT YOURSELF IN THE MOS VULNERABLE SPOT YOU COULD.
YOUR BACK ISN'T TO ANYTHING.
Amy: THIS IS VERY EXPOSED.
YEAH, SIT HERE.
JUST SIT HERE.
ADAM'S HILARIOUS.
HE WANTS TO ACTUALLY LAY WHERE I SLEPT THE WHOLE NIGH AND HAD SOME CRAZY EXPERIENCES.
GO RIGHTHE AAD.
-I DON'T KNOW, MAN.
-WELL, LET'S ALL WALK AWAY.
LET'S ALL -- LET'S GO BACK THIS WAY.
-LET'S LEAVE HIM ALONE.
-SEE YOU LATER, ADAM.
ALL RIGHT.
- LET'S WALK OUT FOR A SECOND.
OKAY.
JUST SO HE CAN EXPERIENCE IT.
HERE'S A RECDEORR.
-IS IT ON, THE RECORDER? -JUST DON'T SHUFFLE IT AROUND.
-YEAH, YEAH.
-UM, JUST HOLD IT STILL.
BUT LAY BACK.
JUST GET COMFORTABLE.
AND LET'S SEE HOW LONG YOU LAST.
Nick: AS ADAM LIES STILL WITH THE RECORDER ROLLING, WE HEAD TO A DISTANT WING SO WE WILL NOT CONTAMINATE WHATEVER EVIDENCE HE MAY CAPTURE.
HOW LONG YOU GIVE HIM? MAYBE 5 MINUTES.
OH.
MAYBE 5.
SO WHERE'D YOU -- WHERE'D YOU GUYS SEE -- DOWN AT THE VERY END DOWN HERE.
WE HAD HEARD THAT PEOPLE SEE THEM UP HERE QUITE A BIT.
AND SO WE JUST STOOD, NOT FAR FROM HERE ACTUALLY, AND JUST WATCHED THEM CROSS BACK AND FORTH DOWN AT THE END OF THAT HALLWAY FOR QUITE A WHILE.
IS THERE ANYBODY HERE? OH [BLEEP.]
[ DOOR OPENS .]
HERE HE COMES.
YOU WERE RIGHT.
I TOLD YOU.
YOU JUST FEEL LIKE - THERE'S SOMEBODY BEHIND YOU THE ENTIRE TIME, LIKE, GOING LIKE THIS.
YEAH.
LIKE, GOING LIKE THIS AND, LIKE, TRYING TO, LIKE, GET UP CLOSE TO WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
AND YOU'RE SO VULNERABLE.
THOSE WERE THE SAME EXACT THINGS THAT I SAID.
[ INDISTINCT TALKING .]
-WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT? -I DON'T KNOW.
NOPE.
IT GOES -- IT GOES, "HELLO, ADAM.
" -NO.
-NO! -I SWEAR TO GOD.
-NO WAY! THAT'S WHAT IT SAYS.
I SWEAR TO GOD.
THAT'S WHAT I'M HEARING.
I JUST GOT CHILLS.
OH, IT DOES! IT SAYS, "HELLO, ADAM!" HOLY [BLEEP.]
I JUST GOT CHILLS SO BAD! HI.
I AM FLOORED BY THE EVP WE GO THAT SAYS, "HELLO,DA AM.
" THAT IS CLEAR AS DAY.
AND IT ALSO TELLS US THAT WHATEVEISR HERE IS NOT ONLY INTELLIGEN BUT ALSO REMEMBERS.
I'LL SLOW IT DOWN.
-WHOA! -OH, MY GOD.
DUDE! LIKE, WHAT? Nick: IT'S CLEAR THAT THE PARANORMAL ACTIVITY IS PEAKING.
AMY AND ADAM LEAVE SO WE CAN CONTINUE OUR CONFINEMENT, LEAVING ONLY KATRINA, ROB, AND ME IN THE ASYLUM.
WE HOPE THE VOICE THAT SAID, "HELLO, ADAM" WILL MANIFEST ITSELF TO US.
IT HONESTLY FEELS LIKE WE'RE IN THE MIDDLE OF A HORROR MOVIE.
IT TOTALLY DOES, YEAH.
- DOESN'T IT? YES.
DO YOU FEEL ALRIL GHT? I DON'T THINK WE'RE ALONE RIGHT NOW.
[ GASPS .]
I TOTALLY JUST SAW SOMETHING.
I JUST GOT THE CHILLS.
I TOTALLY SAW THAT.
MY HEART IS RACING RIGHT NOW.
ARE YOU OKAY? YEAH.
MY HEART'S RACING.
ARE YOU ANXIETY.
ARE YOU NEXT TO NICK RIGHT NOW? ARE YOU GIVING HIM ANXIETY? NICK STARTS GETTING ALL THIS ANXIETY, LIKE HE CAN'T BREATHE.
I HAVE NEVER SEEN HIM LIKE THAT, SO THAT IS SCARING ME A LITTLE BIT RIGHT NOW.
WHAT IHO TUGHT I SAW WAS JUST THIS STAND -- THIS -- I CAN'T EVEN TALK.
THIS MAN, LIKE, STANDING THERE, BUT ALL DARK.
BEING IN HERE FOR 3 DAYS, PUSHING OURSELF MENTALLY AND PHYSICALLY TO OUR BREAKING POINT, IT'S EXHAUSTING.
BUT THAT'S WHEN WE SEEM TO REALIZE WE'RE CAPTURING EVIDENCE.
WHAT'S INTERESTING IS THAT WE WERE, LIKE, DEAD BACK THATAY W, AND WE SAW IT OVER HERE.
AND NOW THAT WE'RE HERE, NOTHING'S HAPPENING.
OH.
LIKE A PLAY -- IT SNEAKS UP ON YOU.
IT'S, LIKE, PLAYING.
YEAH, SNEAKING UP ON US.
I SAW SOMETHING GO IN FRONT OF THAT WINDOW.
THERE IS NO DOUBT IN MY MIND ABOUT THAT.
IT'S JUST WHAT IT WAS, I DO NOT KNOW.
AND I'M, LIKE, STILL, LIKE SHAKY FROM I A LITTLE BIT.
WHAT -- LET'S LOOK.
BUT I DON'T ARE YOU TRYING TO RUN AWAY FROM US? HOW ABOUT THIS? WALK BACKWARDS.
- SEE IF IT COMES UP, YOU KNOW? WHAT? Rob: HOLD ON A SEC.
WHAT IS THAT? WHAT? Nick: WE'VE NOW BEEN CFIONNED TO THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM FOR 64 HOURS.
IT'S LATE INTO OUR THIRD NIGHT, AND KATRINA, OUR CAMERAMAN, ROB, AND I ARE ALL EXPERIENCING A GROWING PARANORMAL PRESENCE CONCENTRATED ON THE FOURTH FLOOR.
YOU KNOW WHAT? Rob: HOLD ON A SEC.
WHAT IS THAT? WHAT? HOLD ON.
WHERE ARE YOU HEARING IT FROM, ROB? WHAT? WHERE ARE YOU LOOKING AT, ROB? WHAT'S THE MATTER? I SWEAR I JUST SAW SOMETHING DARK.
WHERE? WHERE? WHERE? WHAT? BACK THERE.
I CAN'T SEE.
WHAT? I THOUGHT I SAW SOMETHING MOVE ACROSS THAT BACK WALL.
IT WAS LIKE A GLOBE.
I CAN'T SEE [BLEEP.]
SHADY.
SHOW US.
SHOW US WHERE.
COME HERE.
-KEEP GOING.
-MY HEART'S RACING RIGHT NOW.
Rob: I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT THAT WAS, MAN.
ARE YOU ALL RIGHT? YEAH.
I'M ALL RIGHT.
IT'S JUST SEEING ROB SHAKING, TELLING ME WHAT HE'S SEEING ON THE CAMERA, IT'S LITERALLY FREAKING ME OU BECAUSE I CAN'T SEE I WITH MY OWN EYES.
WE'RE IN PITCH DARKNESS, BUT ONLY ROB CAN SEE IT ON THESE HIGH-DEFINITION CAMERAS.
WHERE DID YOU SEE IT, ROB? POINT OUT Rob: KIND OF LIKE IF I'M IT.
YEAH.
LIKE, RIGHT THERE.
I'M LOOKING.
I'M RIGHT HERE.
KATRINA? GOD.
IT HAD SHAPE.
IT WASN'T JUST, LIKE, A MIST.
BUT IT WASN'T HUMAN? IT DIDN'T HAVE, LIKE, A GUFIRE? I'M SHAKING RIGHT NOW.
I DON'T KNOW WHAT I JUST SAW.
-I DON'T KNOW.
-TALK -- TALK TO US.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? SO WE WERE LOOKING DOWN THAT WAY.
I THOUGHT I HEARD SOMETHING IN MY EAR, FOOTSTEPS BACK THERE.
AND THEN AS I ZOOMED IN ON YOU GUYS, MY FOCUS WEN TO THAT BACK WALL.
AND AT THAT VERY LAST SECOND, IT'S LIKE I THOUGHT -- LIKE, ALMOST LIKE A LARGE SNAKE OR LIZARD OR SOMETHING JUST KIND OF SLITHERED PAST.
DO YOU HAVE THE MONITOR ON YOU? CAN WE PLAY IT BACK? CAN WE PLAY IT BACK? YEAH.
LET'S PLAY IT BACK.
WATCH.
WATCH BACK HERE.
AND THAT'S WHEN I HEARD SOMETHING.
'CAUSE YOU CAN TELL.
THE FOCUS IS ALL OVER THE PLACE.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
NOW, WATCH.
RIGHT THERE.
[ GASPS .]
WHAT THE [BLEEP.]
IS THAT? WHERE? I CAN'T SEE.
-IT'S, LIKE -OH, MY GOD! THAT'S WHY I SAID IT'S LIKE A SNAKE.
YEAH.
I'M SHAKING RIGHT NOW JUST LOOKING AT THAT.
HERE.
SO WE'LL WATCH IT AGAIN.
SEE, HERE WE ARE.
AND IT'S RIGHT HERE - THAT I NOTICE THAT IT'S MOVING.
IT'S SLIDING RIGHT ACROSS, RIGHT TO LEFT.
AND NOW IT'S GONE.
WHAT IS THAT? WHATEVER SHAPE THAT WAS THAT I FIRST SAW -- I DIDN'T KNOW WH TATHE HELL YOU WERE TALKING ABOUT.
YEAH.
I WAS LIKE WHAT WAS THAT? THERE IT GOES.
OH, MY GOD.
WHOA.
IT JUST, LIKE -- IT LITERALLY -- IT SLITHERS.
WHAT'S WEIRD, TOO, IS THAT IT'S, LIKE -- IT'S THERE THE WHOLE TIME.
IT'S JUST HANGING OUT.
AND THEN IT WAS LIKE SHOOP! ROB, I'VE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT.
SO THERE'S SOMETHING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLOOR, RIGHT? IS THAT WHAT I'M SEEING? THAT'S WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE.
THERE'S SOME WHITE BLOB.
AND THEN WHEN HE GETS CLOSE ON ME, HE'S FOCUSING ON ME.
AND THEN, LIKE, RIGHT AFTER THAT, IT STARTS TO MOVE.
IT'S JUST, LIKE, A SHADOW HANGING OUT BEHIND US, AND THEN IT SLITHERS AWAY.
IT'S DEFINITELY NO AN ANIMAL, RIGHT? NO, 'CAUSE WE WOULD'VE HEARD IT.
IT'S -- YEAH, EXACTLY.
IT CAN'T BE AN ANIMAL.
WE WOULD'VE HEARD IT.
WE WEREN' THAT FAR AWAY FROM IT.
AND EVEN IF IT WAS AN ANIMAL, WHAT KIND OF ANIMAL IS THAT HUGE? THAT SLITHERS? WITH NO SOUND? THAT, WHATEVER TT HAIS, IS SOMETHING -- SOMETHING ELSE.
WHAT WE'VE EXPERIENCED IN THIS HALL TONIGHT IS BIZARRE.
AND I DON'T HAVE A NATURAL EXPLANATION FOR ANY OF THAT RIGHT NOW.
I'VE NEVER SEEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
IT'S FREAKING NUTS.
AM I LOSING MY MIND? NO.
NO.
SOMETHING'S HAPPENING UP HERE.
Nick: AS GREAT AS IT IS TO EXPERIENCE SOMETHING SO PROFOUND TOGETHER, AND AS PHYSICALLY EXHAUSTED AND MENTALLY SPENT AS I AM, I FEEL IT'S NECESSARY TO REMAIN UP HERE ALONE TO FACE THE SPIRI I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR ALL THESE YEARS.
IT'S FRIGHTENING.
I WON'T LIE.
THIS IS ACTUALLY REALLY SCARY, BEING UP HERE ALONE IN COMPLETE DARKNESS, ONLY HAVING MY NIGHT-VISION CAMERA TO -- TO KIND OF SEE MY WAY.
I'M GONNA SHOW YOU WHAT I SEE.
COMPLETE DARKNESS.
YOU CAN SEE THE WINDOW AT THE END.
CAN YOU SHOW YOURSELF ONE MORE TIME? DID I JUST SEE YOU UP HERE? WERE YOU AT THE END OF THIS HALLWAY RIGHT HERE? ARE YOU IN HERE? WE DON'T MEAN TO DISRUPT YOU.
AFTER MANY HOURS ON MY OWN, THERE'S STILL NO SIGN OF WHATEVER THAT WAS THAT WE ENCOUNTERED EARLIER.
MAYBE IT KNOWS WE'RE APPROACHING OUR 72nd AND FINAL HOUR.
IT'S THE MORNING OF DAY 4, AND OUR UNNERVING CONFINEMEN HAS FINALLY COME TO AN END.
-I'M EXHAUSTED.
-O YH,EAH.
JUST THESE LAST 3 DAYS HAVE BEEN, LIKE, A WHIRLWIND.
WE'VE HAD ALL SORTS OF STUFF HAPPEN TO US.
I FEEL LIKE LIVING HERE FOR 3 DAYS, WE'VE FINALLY DONE JUSTICE, ESPECIALLY COMING BACK A SECOND TIME FOR ME.
YEAH.
I PERSONALLY FEEL SATISFIED.
LIVING AT A LOCATION FOR 3 DAYS, COMMUNICATING WITH SPIRITS, WITH THINGS THA WE DON'T FULLY UNDERSTAND, IT'S FRIGHTENING.
PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOS INTENSE INVESTIGATIONS I'VE HAD IN A LONG TIME.
HERE AT THE TRANS-ALLEGHENY LUNATIC ASYLUM, NOT ONLY DID WE CONVERSE WITH MULTIPLE VOICES DON'T SAY A WORD.
WHOA! Nick: WE WERE PHYSICALLY ATTACKED STABBING PAIN IN MY HEAD.
AND MENTALLY BROKEN.
[ LOUD BANG .]
WHOA! 72 HOURS AGO, KATRINA AND I SET OUT TO FIND THE SHADOW FIGURE I HAD SEEN ON MY FIRST VISIT HERE.
WHAT? WAS IT THE CREEPER, A PHYSICAL FORM CREATED FROM THE EMOTIONAL TRAUMA OF THE ASYLUM, OR DID WE CAPTURE THE FIRST GLIMPSE OF AN ENTIRELY NEW ENTITY? [ GASPS .]
WHAT THE [BLEEP.]
IS THAT? Nick: IT WAS TOO DARK TO SEE WITH OUR EYES ALONE, BUT NEW TECHNOLOGY ALLOWED THE CAMERA TO HARNESS MULTIPLE LIGHT DYNAMICS TO FIND ITS HIDDEN, SLITHERING OUTLINE.
THE RESULT WAS BOTH TERRIFYING AND EXHILARATING.
AND IT MAKES ME REALIZE JUST HOW TRULY UNPREDICTABLE AND DANGEROUS THESE MISSIONS INTO THE UNKNOWN CAN BE.
