Fact or Faked: Paranormal Files (2010) s01e03 Episode Script
Off the Deep End & Houseguest
Tonight on "fact or faked: Paranormal files" - Whoa! Whoa! - What?! We asked him if he was a good ghost or a bad ghost.
And the head were up out of the water.
what? Guys, I just found something.
I'm not sure what it is.
But this thing is huge.
This is weird! That sends chills down my spine.
Hey, we just found some bones! Oh, my god! Oh, my goodness! There's a flying saucer.
I'm getting a series of lights right there.
Oh, my god! What the heck is that? Hey, you guys ready this morning? Yeah.
Of course we are.
Ready.
Who we got first today? I've got a case.
This has to be one of my favorite cases of all time.
Every other case combined.
Doesn't equal the amount of evidence as this one case.
This is the ghost-writer case.
For over 20 years, in this home, Residents have been getting communication.
Via writing that appears on polaroids.
They load fresh film, they ask a question, Take a photo, boom.
-- The words appear.
It's ghost writing.
I've heard of this.
Yeah.
It's a case that's got a lot of coverage.
Yeah.
Let's play this tape.
All right.
And you can see the whole process.
Sounds creepy.
And we pull out A brand-new, fresh thing of film.
We load it in.
we close it up.
Did you die in this house? And here's the photograph.
It just came out of the camera.
And let's see what happens.
It looks like it says "corpus delicti.
" "corpus delicti.
" Huh.
Which, in translation, means? They'll translate it for you.
Okay.
"the basic element of a crime, as in murder The death of a murdered person.
" Hmm.
That sends chills down my spine.
Have they ever checked the police reports.
To see if anybody in that house had been murdered? They have checked records, And there's no record of a murder in that house.
I don't know, bill.
I'm looking at these polaroids, And I just feel like this could easily be done.
You can expose this film prior and get these results.
Maybe so, But they weren't buying the polaroids or the cameras.
They had people bringing them over to their house.
And taking their pictures.
It ended up becoming where.
They had ghost-writing parties every Halloween.
Well, you've sold me.
I really like this case.
Sounds really exciting.
I can already think of ways.
That I can start testing to get these results.
Let's move on.
Chi-lan, what do you have next for us? All right, guys.
You guys are gonna love this.
I have a case from california, as well, But mine is from sacramento.
Now, joe hansen and his wife were walking their dog.
In November 2008, and all of a sudden, They saw some lights pulsing in the sky.
Take a look.
This was in the news.
That's right.
It was reported in the media and the papers.
Ooh, it just disappeared! Whoa! Whoa! What?! And it's almost as if.
It leaves a residue when you watch the stuff drop down.
Well, then, that makes me think it's more chemical.
It looks like it's attached to something, Like there's a stem coming out of it.
If it was a hoax, maybe it's a rod.
I'm not sure.
You can't even tell we're looking at the sky.
I mean, we just see a black background and a light.
Who's to say that it isn't.
Somebody holding a flare out there and just letting it drip? If this is all the video is, I don't think we have much to go on.
But I don't know.
Let's keep it in the back of our minds and move on.
I actually got a great poltergeist video.
This video has close to a million hits online.
This guy had been hearing Sounds, bangs coming from the ceiling of his home.
He had noticed various items.
Were getting thrown across rooms, And so he set up cameras one time when he was leaving.
This is what he captured.
So, take a look.
All right.
That's creepy.
Is he off in the corner actually throwing the stuff around.
And pulling these drawers open with fishing line? There are many theories on how this could be hoaxed.
But at the same time, what if it is a real poltergeist, And what is it supposed to look like? In fact, there are several people.
Who have posted explanation videos.
As to how he did this, And they pointed out certain parts.
Where there are reflections of objects.
Or people dressed in green-screen suits, And he takes the videos down right away.
So there's a lot of speculation.
That, yes, this has been faked.
I would love to investigate a poltergeist video, But I just feel like the credibility of this specific one.
Is really in question for me.
So, for me, I'd have to pass on this video.
I agree.
Let's choose one that possibly.
Has a better chance of being real.
Okay, austin.
All right, guys.
I'm going cryptozoological bory.
Edyon.
A fnydyiaamilbor thamhe t loch ness monster, or "nessie"? Of course.
This is basically pennsylvania's version.
Of the loch ness monster.
I wish more than anything I had actual footage.
However, I don't.
I only have a photo.
Take a look.
What do you guys think? Looking at togs he, phot it could easily have been faked.
Did you speak to any eyewitnesses? Numerous eyewitnesses.
From all over the world that travel to the lake.
Claim to have seen the same exact creature, And I've personally spoke with two different witnesses.
From different locations.
That saw it years apart from each other.
And described basically the same thing.
The famous loch ness is supposedly a plesiosaurus.
That, you know, lived through the ice ages.
And made it to today's time.
Are we looking at one of those here, Or maybe is it an eel, a large sea snake? Highly unlikely.
That a plesiosaur is living in a man-made lake, But I would be very open to the possibility.
There might be some type of large eel-like creature.
Or something out there.
Now, based on this photo, How big do they estimate this sea creature to be? You know what? They've been saying it's excess of 20 feet.
And it's actually not that big, Considering the drastic size of the lake.
The lake is up to 200 feet deep at parts.
And is over 30 miles long.
I really like this photo.
It's not much that you're bringing to us.
I think chi-lan makes a great point.
This could be easily faked, But when you combine it with the credible witnesses.
It sounds like you've spoken to.
Who have claimed to see this thing, I think we might have something here.
I have a lot of good ideas for great ways.
To replicate this without using trick photography.
Has anyone ever gone into the lake.
And gone searching for this sea creature? Not that I know of.
So, I think we should keep this as a definite contender.
Let's see what else we have today.
I have a video from north carolina.
This occurrence happened in may of 2009, So it's pretty fresh.
And it's a guy who was driving on a road in charlotte.
That's known for having strange activities happening.
He was in the front seat, and he was filming.
This is what it looks like.
Oh, goodness.
Yeah, you see it right there.
I always have an issue.
Why would somebody just be filming out the windshield? Can you advance it just to where it appears.
In the middle of the frame? All right.
Guys, I need to cry foul on this one.
It's a composite.
In my opinion, this is a digital effect.
There's two videos here.
One, there was a passenger, Somebody videotaping from the inside of the car.
As it's going down the road, and there's a second video.
Of a person jumping across the road.
So, this is an actual person.
Mm-hmm.
They did a composite, and they did a digital smear.
It's fake.
You can see the dissolve.
It's a person.
I think I'm satisfied with that.
I don't think there's really any need.
To look further into this one.
Sorry, jael.
Now let's go back to the videos that we reviewed today.
I love the ghost-writing case, bill.
I think it's awesome.
I think it's definitely decided.
Ghost writer is a must.
So, bill, why don't you take chi-lan and larry.
And head on out there? I love the raystown ray story.
Raystown.
Okay.
So, I'll take austin.
And, jael, you want to do some diving with me? Absolutely.
Well, let's head out.
All right.
Let's do it.
Coming up on "fact or faked: Paranormal files" We've seen this black, shiny something or other.
Submerged again.
Right here is where.
The dead body is supposed to be buried.
This is weird! Oh! Residents have been getting communication.
Via writing that appears on polaroids.
It's ghost writing.
Ghost writer is a must.
There are numerous eyewitnesses.
From all over the world.
That claim to have seen the same creature.
Raystown.
Okay.
Oh, man.
You guys see that view? Looks like the same exact place.
Where they took the photograph from.
In fact, got it right here.
You can see right off the point there.
We're looking straight at it.
Same angle and everything.
The guy who took this photograph.
Still wanted to remain anonymous, So we're not able to talk to him.
We've got some witnesses coming.
Who have actually seen very silar things in the lake.
John? Hi.
Yes.
How are you? Good to see you.
Nice to see you.
I hear you got a great story to tell us about ray.
Yeah, we were on a boat ride about 16 years ago, And we seen a bunch of bubbles surface to the water.
To the left of us.
And after we seen the bubbles, We seen this big, black, shiny something or other.
Just surface, twisted, and just submerged again.
Were you able to make out a color or a texture, even? It looked black and shiny.
Texture -- you know, it seemed.
Like it was something of a fish scale.
Or something like that.
When we seen it, we didn't know that there was this "creature" In the water called raystown ray until about a year later.
So, you'd never heard anybody else talk about it? You'd never heard anything about this thing? No.
Nothing at all.
Sounds like you guys saw something, like, incredible.
Well, we were down here wiping the jet skis off.
And there was a boat that was coming in, And we saw this thing.
That was, like, striding along the water.
Like, it had, like -- The neck and the head were up out of the water.
We watched it for probably about two or three minutes, Just stunned, and then it went down in the water, And we didn't get a chance to get any pictures or anything.
Now, how far away were you? Okay, now, you've seen photos of ray, right, That's right out here by the point? Yeah.
How would you say that compared to what you saw? The neck and the head.
-- That compared.
One thing that I found really interesting.
About all the witnesses that we've talked to -- One pair had experienced this sighting 16 years ago, And the other pair was just last year, So it gives some credence to the story.
Whatever this thing is, I'm really excited to get out there and see what we find.
Of course, one of the prime theories.
Is that this could be some type of a log.
I mean, look around.
We're surrounded by trees.
It's possible some kind of odd-shaped log.
Is bobbing along out there.
We'll find a log that looks like the same shape, See if we can get it in the same location.
The object was in the photograph, and tow it around.
Yeah, we're at the exact same vantage point.
Where the photo was taken.
Well, I've got the camera, so I'll stay here.
And snap some while you're down there.
Perfect.
Okay? All right.
Hopefully, we can find a log that's gonna be big enough.
To actually replicate what was in the photo.
Let's go.
Go ahead, jael.
Making sure that we're all good.
Since I just got to the top, here.
Okay.
You're in place.
We're ready to go find our log.
Look.
Austin, I think we've found our ray.
Yeah, I think that'll work.
All right, bud, here's the rope.
All right.
Got it.
You get it? Yeah.
We're towing.
Hey, jael, Start taking pictures now as it moves into place.
Y, he gs.
He I've snapped a ton of photos.
I'm gonna pack up my things and come meet you at the dock.
Copy that.
Hey.
What did it look like? Well, it did look good.
But personally, I don't think it was a log.
Thure xtof s e'f.
Te.
S hia ts wa lo edflt.
Hayave st.
Oae.
S hia ts wa lo edflt.
Hayave st.
Ikit's'sot lte us jit gonna dip under the wake.
That the eyewitnesses were talking about.
If you're saying it's not a log, This could definitely be a hoax.
I think we have to take our next experiment.
Heading in that direction.
All right, guys, well, let's put this equipment away.
And get to it, yeah? What we've got here to build our creature.
Is some pvc pipe.
And we've capped off the ends so this becomes very buoyant.
And then we've attached a keel made of plywood.
And weighted it at the bottom.
On top of this, We're going to fasten the humps and the head to the creature.
Whoa.
Wow.
Good job.
Yeah, this will go right here on the end, And then our two humps on the other part.
And, wow, this is gonna look really good.
I think the head is done.
Let's lift this puppy up, see what it looks like.
Look at that.
Ray is tall.
This is gonna look great.
I say, jael, we'll let you head back up to the view point.
Ben and I, let's hit the boat, Let's get this thing loaded up.
I bet this thing's gonna look even better in the water.
The guys are down there.
They have our mock creature that we've created.
They're gonna launch it out into the water.
Where we saw the original creature in the photograph, And hopefully we'll see if it'll look exactly the same.
There you go.
Okay, jael, the head is in the water, So get ready to take some shots.
Copy that.
I've got my eyes on you.
And as soon you get close.
To the one from the original photograph, I will start snapping away.
Copy that.
Okay, jael, how's the position? It's looking just right.
You guys just need to pull away from the creature.
Pulling away, and his head is coming up.
Come on, boy.
Come on.
There you go.
There you go.
Hey, guys, it's looking great.
I'm gonna grab the digital camera and start snapping away.
That's perfect.
The guys are down there.
They have our mock creature that we've created.
Okay, jael, how's the position? It's looking just right.
Jael, are we good? We're golden, you guys.
Great.
We're gonna pack up.
We'll meet you down at the dock.
You feed a stray once, and they keep coming back.
Let's see this.
Check it out.
Hey.
That looks pretty good, huh? I like how the lengths tw th n peeero.
E be hey.
That looks pretty good, huh? Ke ma itli lmak oo k s vi it l cure ngtlit at.
Bi.
Tre dithan it did where we wer.
Ke ma itli lmak oo k s vi it l cure ngtlit at.
Bi.
R lisy ookslleall, odbu twe don't go after really good.
We go after perfect.
And it's not perfect.
Ok at how much time and energy.
It took toctually make this thing.
The probability of a local actually doing the same thing, Launching it off this dock without anyone else noticing, And also creating that movement.
That the eyewitnesses were talking about, And actually having it descend -- We weren't able to do that.
If all we had was a photo, I would say.
This is probably good enough to say this is what it could be, But we interviewed.
Different people that have actually seen it, So we know something is out there that's living.
I say it's time we stop replicating -- Time we actually start go looking for something.
Let's get in the water.
Okay.
I agree.
Austin is going to start his sweep of the lake.
His boat is equipped with state-of-the-art sonar, Which has got really great resolution.
In fact, it can pick up anything.
The size of the end of your pinky.
At the same time, jael and I are also gonna start a sweep, And we'll be looking for anything above the water.
We're gonna be ready in our scuba gear.
If austin sees anything, he calls us, We're ready to go into the water.
We'll see what we can find.
And I think we're pretty much geared up.
I've been scanning the lake for quite some time now.
I'm still not seeing anything.
But, obviously, I mean, patience is one of the biggest keys.
When you're scanning a lake of this size.
That is huge.
Guys, I just found something.
I'm not sure what it is.
But this thing is huge.
How many feet are you talking? I'm saying easily 15 feet.
You need to hurry.
It's going in and out of screen on the sonar.
I see you guys.
I see you guys.
There he is, straight ahead.
You guys, I'm not even sure of what I saw, but it was huge! Like, it was taunting me, on and off the screen.
You guys ready to get wet? Jael, I am reading you clearly.
Over.
That type of visibility is very unsafe.
Remember, guys, what I saw is big.
Watch your backs.
Perfect -- you guys should just be getting.
Below the first thermocline, Feeling a slight fluctuation in temperature.
That's where the predators are gonna be.
If ray's down there, you guys should find him.
Are you seeing anything? Over.
Copy that.
Austin to team.
How are you guys doing on air? You guys got to be running low.
Why don't you head back to the boat? Copy.
Wow! You guys okay? We're doing okay, But you couldn't see anything down there.
Thank you.
All right, man, it looks like.
If you guys couldn't see anything, Our next option's fishing.
Let's put out some bait, see what we can get.
If we can't see it, let's see if we can feed it.
Okay, guys.
What I'm thinking is we should take this, Tie a couple of buoys to the end of this.
Because it's gonna be heavily weighted down, Keep it afloat.
We make the leader travel down to about 35 feet.
All right.
Oh, geez.
Lift him up there.
Look at this.
There you go.
We got a big guy.
Bring him over.
I think it's probably a good idea that we chose a carp.
Because there are so many in this lake.
That, you know, if ray is inside this lake, This could be a natural food source for him.
Fish is all hooked up and ready to go.
Over the top.
There we go.
Let's go fishing, guys.
So, we're gonna keep a really good eye on these bobbers.
If they go down, I'll let you know.
See if we hook anything.
Obviously, we don't want to kill whatever it is.
We just want to take a closer look.
Yeah.
And I think setting the bait out there.
Might just do the trick.
How we looking, guys? Are we having any movement at all back there? Nothing yet.
Let's head over back where you picked up.
The first sonar reading.
All right.
Whoa! Are you going straight? Sure am.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, whoa! I can feel it.
It's trying to hold the boat.
If we can't see it, let's see if we can feed it.
Austin, are you going straight? Sure am.
Whoa! We're onto something now.
These things went right under.
Whatever this is, is stronger than the boat.
It's trying to hold the boat.
Yeah.
Cut the engine.
Whoa! Let's go check it out.
Let's go back and see if we even have any bait left.
Raystown.
We interview our witnesses.
They actually, to me, Seemed really pretty credible.
Yeah.
So, after speaking with the witnesses, We wanted to start on our experiments, The first one being the theory that it's gonna be some type.
Of log floating out there.
If you take a really close look, Bv t's othiot xthateuse otcolochdo nat m u.
If you take a really close look, So ie wde our second experiment, Which was the re-creation of making our own ray.
Now, this semelo cr.
Still, 'tt mewasng.
Sin.
Rgub now, this semelo cr.
U coyodn jus'tt make it duck underwater.
Like people were saying the original was doing.
So, after doing that, We decided to do an investigation of the lake.
Austin went out on his boat equipped with sonar.
He discovered something under the water.
That seemed like it was a considerable size.
Jael and I went out there, dove in the water.
Visibility was terribly poor.
Whatever it was, we couldn't see it.
So, after doing that, we tried to get it closer to us, And we trolled around trying to attract this thing.
Towards our bait.
And there was a moment there.
Where we thought we were onto something pretty big.
Whoa! Whoa, whoa! Whoa! Look out.
Whatever this is, is stronger than the boat.
Turns out we were onto something big.
We were actually snagged, though, on the bottom.
We hooked on a rock or a tree or something 'cause it literally just jolted.
You guys did a really good job replicating the photo.
But you guys were out there.
What do you guys think it is? I think we have so many credible witnesses.
And people saying they have seen something, There still may actually be.
Some large creature out in the lake.
Just having captured something on the sonar.
And all of these other sightings, Yeah, I'm pretty convinced that something's down there.
Well, from what I'm seeing from what you guys have done, I say this remains unexplained.
Yeah, well, you know, with so many witnesses and this photo, There's a strong possibility.
That there is a sea creature dubbed ray.
Living in these waters.
I believe that there is something there.
So, this case is still unexplained.
So, I'm excited to hear.
What happened in the ghost-writer case.
As you recall, the homeowners had been communicating.
With a ghost named wright through polaroid pictures.
Mm-hmm.
They feel like something paranormal.
Is going on in their house, And they asked us to come in and check it out ourselves.
Here's what happened.
John.
Hey.
How's it going? Hey, bill.
Nice to see you.
Nice seeing you, too.
Thanks for allowing us to come into your home.
Well, I'm glad you guys could come here and help us.
Figure out what the hell is going on here.
Well, we can spend a few minutes talking about it.
All right.
How did the polaroids get started in the first place? I mean, what's the origin behind that? Christmas 1991, I got a polaroid camera from my dad.
I had felt things here.
Since I moved in in 1990 for a couple of years, And a lot of people had.
So, I was sitting there working at the table, And the bathroom door opened.
And we had joked about.
Whether you could get a picture of something or not, And so I thought, "well, that's a good enough sign.
So, I took a picture, and nothing showed up, And then I closed the door and got back to work, And it did it again.
And so I took another picture, and then this thing showed up.
So, what did you see in the first polaroids you took? Different shapes of light.
We kept taking them and taking them.
And trying to come up with what could possibly be causing it.
So we brought a bunch of friends over, and we said, "well, we got something to show you guys.
" We showed them the photographs.
They were like, "oh, this is so cool.
How did you do this? " One of our friends said, "well, is he here now?" And somebody grabbed the camera and snapped a picture, And then we were looking at it, and we saw it.
And it was literally 45 minutes before we realized.
That it actually said something, and it said "yes.
" Next logical question was, "what's your name?" And that was the second polaroid.
And he said his name was wright.
At one point, we asked if he was a good ghost or a bad ghost, And he answered, "friend.
" Oh.
Oh, wow.
"is it difficult to communicate with us?" "takes a dead lift.
" Years ago, a psychic friend of ours claimed.
That there was a dead body under the house, And he showed us right where, or within a certain perimeter, Where this body would be.
I'd be willing to climb under there.
Let's take it inside.
Thank you.
In here is where the vortex -- This is where we've alwa been told the vortex is, Right in front of the bathroom.
And this is supposedly the portal.
Where all the spirits, entities, whatever, enter, And then they shoot across there and exit by the stove.
Right here is the area where the dead body.
Is supposed to be buried.
So, we're, like, standing over it? Yeah.
All right.
Let's get started.
We're gonna do what john has been doing for years -- Ask some questions at the place.
Where john believes there is a vortex, Snap a photo, and see if anything's been written.
On the polaroids.
You guys ready? Yeah.
Okay, so, this is brand-new.
Brand-new.
That's it.
When you look at the way the pictures were all taken, They were all taken in this direction.
Remember, this is the vortex and this is the flow of energy, So they're all taken pretty much in this direction, So we should really focus on shooting here And here.
I want to know How many of you are here? Are you helping us in our investigation? Can you speak to us please? You guys get anything? Nothing.
I got nothing in mine, too.
No written responses appeared in our polaroids.
Maybe the entity is not ready to send us a message yet.
But in the meantime, We now have to begin to explore the possibility.
That this ghost-writer event may be something man-made.
A lot of theories are floating out that the reason.
Why this polaroid gets crazy ghost writing on it.
Is because it's actually a play on exposure, So we've gone ahead and developed the acetate test.
Where we will take a piece of clear acetate, paint it, Take undeveloped polaroid film, Pre-expose it with writing on it, Feed it back into the camera, and then take a picture with it, So then it actually gets a double exposure on it -- The first time with the writing And the second time with our image.
And that will give us our ghostly writing.
On our own polaroid.
But what we want to do is take this and make it opaque.
Once we get an opaque layer here, We're gonna actually scratch in the lettering, Put it over so then light will actually filter.
Through the lettering that we've scratched Okay.
And the rest of it will stay unexposed.
That will actually burn that light image into the film.
So, the next thing we're gonna do is head into the dark room.
So, this is my pack of film.
I'm gonna jump down on the ground.
I'm actually gonna eject the film now, one by one.
Larry, can you hand me one of the acetates? One.
Okay, and this is up.
So, I'm gonna hold it up to the film, And I'm gonna have you go ahead and take my digital camera.
And just take a picture so that the flash exposes the film.
And flash.
Now that we've exposed every single one of our polaroids, We have to put it back into the cartridge.
As if it hasn't been touched.
So, all we have to do now is open up this pack, Load it into our camera, and take own ghost polaroids.
Well, let's get to it.
Okay.
Put this in.
And eject the dummy.
There you go.
Oh.
Bingo.
Okay.
And I have them in the order that they were taken, but, uh Oh.
Whoa! This is weird! We're gonna actually scratch in the lettering.
That will actually burn at light image into the film.
Put this in.
Whoa! Whoa! This is weird! What is is stuff? This is strange.
Yeah.
Our polaroid experiment.
Actually had some really confusing results.
Take a look at this - this is the actual polaroid.
That we did in our situation room.
And you can tell the writing is there, And even though the lighting is off, It looks pretty close.
To what the ghost-writer photographs look like.
But when we did the same eerim.
En.
Rihe g-wst-whor ok at what happened.
There are blobs of light instead of actual text.
Our polaroid experiment was inconclusive.
And didn't give us the information that we needed, So now we're gonna focus on the video, And we're gonna see if the video was faked.
To do that, we're gonna use a very large sheet of plexiglas.
And put ghost-writer words on it.
All right, that's as tight as it's gonna get.
So, you remember the video of the ghost writing that we saw? This is gonna help us re-create that video.
And here's the photograph.
It just came out of the camera.
"corpus delicti.
" To mimic the video, larry and I are gonna stand.
On one side of the plexiglas.
Bill is gonna go ahead and put ghost-writer phrases.
On the glass.
Larry and I are gonna shoot bill through the plexiglas, Avoiding the ghost writing on the bottom of the plexi.
Bill is then gonna take a polaroid of us.
With the ghost writing in his frame.
So, hopefully, that'll explain the possible paranormal event.
That was captured on john's video.
All right.
Let's give it a try.
You ready? Polaroid number one.
Ooh, I see the writing appearing right now.
Beginning to develop.
Hold it still, bill.
'cause it's coming out, and I see it.
You know what the problem is? I'm seeing a reflection of your red light in the plexi, And my camera's actually focusing on your red light.
Oh, yeah.
I see yours now, too.
And that's what's causing my camera.
To notocus on the polaroid any longer.
This plexiglas, it's full of reflections -- Light bouncing off of the wooden bookcases, The shiny book covers, the kitchen utensils.
Everything right now is bouncing light.
In this dark environment.
Here's something else that's a real issue.
When I look at this photo, I can see the flash bounce from my camera.
I have to admit I think we're all.
A little disappointed by the results.
The picture that bill took was somewhat convincing, But it was the video.
That just didn't look anything like the original.
There was no way we could keep the glares out.
So, it didn't replicate it, by any means.
The plexiglas experiment did not work.
If we cannot re-create this event inside the house, Maybe there is something paranormal.
Occurring outside the house.
John mentioned to us the psychic told him.
That there could be a body buried under the house.
Directly below where john believes.
The vortex exists in the living room.
To search under the house, We brought in an expert in ground-penetrating radar.
We essentially develop a two-dimensional image.
As we move an antenna along the ground's surface, And that image is used to identify reflection patterns.
That could conceivably show us where something's buried.
Could this potentially find a dead body under the ground? It should.
We're gonna go down underneath the house, And we're gonna have to move the antenna, the radar antenna, Ong the ground's surface.
And as we go along, We'll probably make ticks to identify various points.
That all comes back to the recording system.
That we'll be standing at, looking at.
If you guys see something on the screen, let us know.
We'll excavate those locations.
Where an anomalous signal appears.
Yeah.
We've placed the cameras in a spot.
Where not only can you see what we're doing, But you can see us, as well, so just keep an eye on us.
Make sure we're all right.
Definitely.
Definitely.
All right, guys.
I'm rolling.
You guys can head on in.
All right.
I'm gonna pull it down.
Okay.
Go ahead and go whenever you're ready.
Ep the movement of the antenna continuous.
Try to make those clicks.
Roger that.
Keep going.
Keep going.
Ah, right there.
This is some kind of reflection.
It's something buried there off the edge.
Hey, guys, see if you can dig.
Anything up from that area.
A what? Hey, we just found some bones! We're gonna go down underneath the house, And we're gonna have to move the radar antenna.
Hey, we just found some bones! I found another bone! Two bones! Well, just see if you can excavate.
Anhing else from that site.
More! More bones! We actually und three now! It'shree bones.
They're found underneath the area.
Where the vortex is that john identified.
We got a really good intervi with the residents of the house.
Dung the interview, they mentioned.
That a body could possibly be bied under the house.
And we went under there to do a dig, And we found Bones.
I have them right here.
Actually had them analyzed by dr.
Wake.
He is the director.
Of zooarchaeological laboratory at ucla.
And, well, what he had to say was pretty interesting.
This is a cow bone.
And this is a chicken bone.
I think that a lot of this case, it seems like, Will really rely on whether you believe.
That these witnesses are credible or not.
Actually, I was able to do a layered voice analysis.
Over this interview, as well, like we've done in the past, And I actually would like to show you.
The results of that right now.
I think you're gonna find these results very interesting.
So, one of the polaroids they took, He says it had writing on it, And he's being completely truthful.
So, what's your final thought on this, bill? Between our inability to replicate the results.
By manipulating the film directly or with the plexiglas, Plus the fact that they seem to be truthful.
In the entire case, It just remains completely mind-boggling to me, And it still can't be solved.
I agree.
I have to follow that layered-voice analysis.
I think what they're telling us is true.
I got to tell you -- I'm baffled.
I've dona lot of photography in my day, And I've studied a lot, and the fact that I can do this, And I can have the same results, But yet I can't do it when we're on site, Really just confuses me.
I agreed that case is not a hoax.
I think we need file this as an unexplained.
com Adriano_CSI
And the head were up out of the water.
what? Guys, I just found something.
I'm not sure what it is.
But this thing is huge.
This is weird! That sends chills down my spine.
Hey, we just found some bones! Oh, my god! Oh, my goodness! There's a flying saucer.
I'm getting a series of lights right there.
Oh, my god! What the heck is that? Hey, you guys ready this morning? Yeah.
Of course we are.
Ready.
Who we got first today? I've got a case.
This has to be one of my favorite cases of all time.
Every other case combined.
Doesn't equal the amount of evidence as this one case.
This is the ghost-writer case.
For over 20 years, in this home, Residents have been getting communication.
Via writing that appears on polaroids.
They load fresh film, they ask a question, Take a photo, boom.
-- The words appear.
It's ghost writing.
I've heard of this.
Yeah.
It's a case that's got a lot of coverage.
Yeah.
Let's play this tape.
All right.
And you can see the whole process.
Sounds creepy.
And we pull out A brand-new, fresh thing of film.
We load it in.
we close it up.
Did you die in this house? And here's the photograph.
It just came out of the camera.
And let's see what happens.
It looks like it says "corpus delicti.
" "corpus delicti.
" Huh.
Which, in translation, means? They'll translate it for you.
Okay.
"the basic element of a crime, as in murder The death of a murdered person.
" Hmm.
That sends chills down my spine.
Have they ever checked the police reports.
To see if anybody in that house had been murdered? They have checked records, And there's no record of a murder in that house.
I don't know, bill.
I'm looking at these polaroids, And I just feel like this could easily be done.
You can expose this film prior and get these results.
Maybe so, But they weren't buying the polaroids or the cameras.
They had people bringing them over to their house.
And taking their pictures.
It ended up becoming where.
They had ghost-writing parties every Halloween.
Well, you've sold me.
I really like this case.
Sounds really exciting.
I can already think of ways.
That I can start testing to get these results.
Let's move on.
Chi-lan, what do you have next for us? All right, guys.
You guys are gonna love this.
I have a case from california, as well, But mine is from sacramento.
Now, joe hansen and his wife were walking their dog.
In November 2008, and all of a sudden, They saw some lights pulsing in the sky.
Take a look.
This was in the news.
That's right.
It was reported in the media and the papers.
Ooh, it just disappeared! Whoa! Whoa! What?! And it's almost as if.
It leaves a residue when you watch the stuff drop down.
Well, then, that makes me think it's more chemical.
It looks like it's attached to something, Like there's a stem coming out of it.
If it was a hoax, maybe it's a rod.
I'm not sure.
You can't even tell we're looking at the sky.
I mean, we just see a black background and a light.
Who's to say that it isn't.
Somebody holding a flare out there and just letting it drip? If this is all the video is, I don't think we have much to go on.
But I don't know.
Let's keep it in the back of our minds and move on.
I actually got a great poltergeist video.
This video has close to a million hits online.
This guy had been hearing Sounds, bangs coming from the ceiling of his home.
He had noticed various items.
Were getting thrown across rooms, And so he set up cameras one time when he was leaving.
This is what he captured.
So, take a look.
All right.
That's creepy.
Is he off in the corner actually throwing the stuff around.
And pulling these drawers open with fishing line? There are many theories on how this could be hoaxed.
But at the same time, what if it is a real poltergeist, And what is it supposed to look like? In fact, there are several people.
Who have posted explanation videos.
As to how he did this, And they pointed out certain parts.
Where there are reflections of objects.
Or people dressed in green-screen suits, And he takes the videos down right away.
So there's a lot of speculation.
That, yes, this has been faked.
I would love to investigate a poltergeist video, But I just feel like the credibility of this specific one.
Is really in question for me.
So, for me, I'd have to pass on this video.
I agree.
Let's choose one that possibly.
Has a better chance of being real.
Okay, austin.
All right, guys.
I'm going cryptozoological bory.
Edyon.
A fnydyiaamilbor thamhe t loch ness monster, or "nessie"? Of course.
This is basically pennsylvania's version.
Of the loch ness monster.
I wish more than anything I had actual footage.
However, I don't.
I only have a photo.
Take a look.
What do you guys think? Looking at togs he, phot it could easily have been faked.
Did you speak to any eyewitnesses? Numerous eyewitnesses.
From all over the world that travel to the lake.
Claim to have seen the same exact creature, And I've personally spoke with two different witnesses.
From different locations.
That saw it years apart from each other.
And described basically the same thing.
The famous loch ness is supposedly a plesiosaurus.
That, you know, lived through the ice ages.
And made it to today's time.
Are we looking at one of those here, Or maybe is it an eel, a large sea snake? Highly unlikely.
That a plesiosaur is living in a man-made lake, But I would be very open to the possibility.
There might be some type of large eel-like creature.
Or something out there.
Now, based on this photo, How big do they estimate this sea creature to be? You know what? They've been saying it's excess of 20 feet.
And it's actually not that big, Considering the drastic size of the lake.
The lake is up to 200 feet deep at parts.
And is over 30 miles long.
I really like this photo.
It's not much that you're bringing to us.
I think chi-lan makes a great point.
This could be easily faked, But when you combine it with the credible witnesses.
It sounds like you've spoken to.
Who have claimed to see this thing, I think we might have something here.
I have a lot of good ideas for great ways.
To replicate this without using trick photography.
Has anyone ever gone into the lake.
And gone searching for this sea creature? Not that I know of.
So, I think we should keep this as a definite contender.
Let's see what else we have today.
I have a video from north carolina.
This occurrence happened in may of 2009, So it's pretty fresh.
And it's a guy who was driving on a road in charlotte.
That's known for having strange activities happening.
He was in the front seat, and he was filming.
This is what it looks like.
Oh, goodness.
Yeah, you see it right there.
I always have an issue.
Why would somebody just be filming out the windshield? Can you advance it just to where it appears.
In the middle of the frame? All right.
Guys, I need to cry foul on this one.
It's a composite.
In my opinion, this is a digital effect.
There's two videos here.
One, there was a passenger, Somebody videotaping from the inside of the car.
As it's going down the road, and there's a second video.
Of a person jumping across the road.
So, this is an actual person.
Mm-hmm.
They did a composite, and they did a digital smear.
It's fake.
You can see the dissolve.
It's a person.
I think I'm satisfied with that.
I don't think there's really any need.
To look further into this one.
Sorry, jael.
Now let's go back to the videos that we reviewed today.
I love the ghost-writing case, bill.
I think it's awesome.
I think it's definitely decided.
Ghost writer is a must.
So, bill, why don't you take chi-lan and larry.
And head on out there? I love the raystown ray story.
Raystown.
Okay.
So, I'll take austin.
And, jael, you want to do some diving with me? Absolutely.
Well, let's head out.
All right.
Let's do it.
Coming up on "fact or faked: Paranormal files" We've seen this black, shiny something or other.
Submerged again.
Right here is where.
The dead body is supposed to be buried.
This is weird! Oh! Residents have been getting communication.
Via writing that appears on polaroids.
It's ghost writing.
Ghost writer is a must.
There are numerous eyewitnesses.
From all over the world.
That claim to have seen the same creature.
Raystown.
Okay.
Oh, man.
You guys see that view? Looks like the same exact place.
Where they took the photograph from.
In fact, got it right here.
You can see right off the point there.
We're looking straight at it.
Same angle and everything.
The guy who took this photograph.
Still wanted to remain anonymous, So we're not able to talk to him.
We've got some witnesses coming.
Who have actually seen very silar things in the lake.
John? Hi.
Yes.
How are you? Good to see you.
Nice to see you.
I hear you got a great story to tell us about ray.
Yeah, we were on a boat ride about 16 years ago, And we seen a bunch of bubbles surface to the water.
To the left of us.
And after we seen the bubbles, We seen this big, black, shiny something or other.
Just surface, twisted, and just submerged again.
Were you able to make out a color or a texture, even? It looked black and shiny.
Texture -- you know, it seemed.
Like it was something of a fish scale.
Or something like that.
When we seen it, we didn't know that there was this "creature" In the water called raystown ray until about a year later.
So, you'd never heard anybody else talk about it? You'd never heard anything about this thing? No.
Nothing at all.
Sounds like you guys saw something, like, incredible.
Well, we were down here wiping the jet skis off.
And there was a boat that was coming in, And we saw this thing.
That was, like, striding along the water.
Like, it had, like -- The neck and the head were up out of the water.
We watched it for probably about two or three minutes, Just stunned, and then it went down in the water, And we didn't get a chance to get any pictures or anything.
Now, how far away were you? Okay, now, you've seen photos of ray, right, That's right out here by the point? Yeah.
How would you say that compared to what you saw? The neck and the head.
-- That compared.
One thing that I found really interesting.
About all the witnesses that we've talked to -- One pair had experienced this sighting 16 years ago, And the other pair was just last year, So it gives some credence to the story.
Whatever this thing is, I'm really excited to get out there and see what we find.
Of course, one of the prime theories.
Is that this could be some type of a log.
I mean, look around.
We're surrounded by trees.
It's possible some kind of odd-shaped log.
Is bobbing along out there.
We'll find a log that looks like the same shape, See if we can get it in the same location.
The object was in the photograph, and tow it around.
Yeah, we're at the exact same vantage point.
Where the photo was taken.
Well, I've got the camera, so I'll stay here.
And snap some while you're down there.
Perfect.
Okay? All right.
Hopefully, we can find a log that's gonna be big enough.
To actually replicate what was in the photo.
Let's go.
Go ahead, jael.
Making sure that we're all good.
Since I just got to the top, here.
Okay.
You're in place.
We're ready to go find our log.
Look.
Austin, I think we've found our ray.
Yeah, I think that'll work.
All right, bud, here's the rope.
All right.
Got it.
You get it? Yeah.
We're towing.
Hey, jael, Start taking pictures now as it moves into place.
Y, he gs.
He I've snapped a ton of photos.
I'm gonna pack up my things and come meet you at the dock.
Copy that.
Hey.
What did it look like? Well, it did look good.
But personally, I don't think it was a log.
Thure xtof s e'f.
Te.
S hia ts wa lo edflt.
Hayave st.
Oae.
S hia ts wa lo edflt.
Hayave st.
Ikit's'sot lte us jit gonna dip under the wake.
That the eyewitnesses were talking about.
If you're saying it's not a log, This could definitely be a hoax.
I think we have to take our next experiment.
Heading in that direction.
All right, guys, well, let's put this equipment away.
And get to it, yeah? What we've got here to build our creature.
Is some pvc pipe.
And we've capped off the ends so this becomes very buoyant.
And then we've attached a keel made of plywood.
And weighted it at the bottom.
On top of this, We're going to fasten the humps and the head to the creature.
Whoa.
Wow.
Good job.
Yeah, this will go right here on the end, And then our two humps on the other part.
And, wow, this is gonna look really good.
I think the head is done.
Let's lift this puppy up, see what it looks like.
Look at that.
Ray is tall.
This is gonna look great.
I say, jael, we'll let you head back up to the view point.
Ben and I, let's hit the boat, Let's get this thing loaded up.
I bet this thing's gonna look even better in the water.
The guys are down there.
They have our mock creature that we've created.
They're gonna launch it out into the water.
Where we saw the original creature in the photograph, And hopefully we'll see if it'll look exactly the same.
There you go.
Okay, jael, the head is in the water, So get ready to take some shots.
Copy that.
I've got my eyes on you.
And as soon you get close.
To the one from the original photograph, I will start snapping away.
Copy that.
Okay, jael, how's the position? It's looking just right.
You guys just need to pull away from the creature.
Pulling away, and his head is coming up.
Come on, boy.
Come on.
There you go.
There you go.
Hey, guys, it's looking great.
I'm gonna grab the digital camera and start snapping away.
That's perfect.
The guys are down there.
They have our mock creature that we've created.
Okay, jael, how's the position? It's looking just right.
Jael, are we good? We're golden, you guys.
Great.
We're gonna pack up.
We'll meet you down at the dock.
You feed a stray once, and they keep coming back.
Let's see this.
Check it out.
Hey.
That looks pretty good, huh? I like how the lengths tw th n peeero.
E be hey.
That looks pretty good, huh? Ke ma itli lmak oo k s vi it l cure ngtlit at.
Bi.
Tre dithan it did where we wer.
Ke ma itli lmak oo k s vi it l cure ngtlit at.
Bi.
R lisy ookslleall, odbu twe don't go after really good.
We go after perfect.
And it's not perfect.
Ok at how much time and energy.
It took toctually make this thing.
The probability of a local actually doing the same thing, Launching it off this dock without anyone else noticing, And also creating that movement.
That the eyewitnesses were talking about, And actually having it descend -- We weren't able to do that.
If all we had was a photo, I would say.
This is probably good enough to say this is what it could be, But we interviewed.
Different people that have actually seen it, So we know something is out there that's living.
I say it's time we stop replicating -- Time we actually start go looking for something.
Let's get in the water.
Okay.
I agree.
Austin is going to start his sweep of the lake.
His boat is equipped with state-of-the-art sonar, Which has got really great resolution.
In fact, it can pick up anything.
The size of the end of your pinky.
At the same time, jael and I are also gonna start a sweep, And we'll be looking for anything above the water.
We're gonna be ready in our scuba gear.
If austin sees anything, he calls us, We're ready to go into the water.
We'll see what we can find.
And I think we're pretty much geared up.
I've been scanning the lake for quite some time now.
I'm still not seeing anything.
But, obviously, I mean, patience is one of the biggest keys.
When you're scanning a lake of this size.
That is huge.
Guys, I just found something.
I'm not sure what it is.
But this thing is huge.
How many feet are you talking? I'm saying easily 15 feet.
You need to hurry.
It's going in and out of screen on the sonar.
I see you guys.
I see you guys.
There he is, straight ahead.
You guys, I'm not even sure of what I saw, but it was huge! Like, it was taunting me, on and off the screen.
You guys ready to get wet? Jael, I am reading you clearly.
Over.
That type of visibility is very unsafe.
Remember, guys, what I saw is big.
Watch your backs.
Perfect -- you guys should just be getting.
Below the first thermocline, Feeling a slight fluctuation in temperature.
That's where the predators are gonna be.
If ray's down there, you guys should find him.
Are you seeing anything? Over.
Copy that.
Austin to team.
How are you guys doing on air? You guys got to be running low.
Why don't you head back to the boat? Copy.
Wow! You guys okay? We're doing okay, But you couldn't see anything down there.
Thank you.
All right, man, it looks like.
If you guys couldn't see anything, Our next option's fishing.
Let's put out some bait, see what we can get.
If we can't see it, let's see if we can feed it.
Okay, guys.
What I'm thinking is we should take this, Tie a couple of buoys to the end of this.
Because it's gonna be heavily weighted down, Keep it afloat.
We make the leader travel down to about 35 feet.
All right.
Oh, geez.
Lift him up there.
Look at this.
There you go.
We got a big guy.
Bring him over.
I think it's probably a good idea that we chose a carp.
Because there are so many in this lake.
That, you know, if ray is inside this lake, This could be a natural food source for him.
Fish is all hooked up and ready to go.
Over the top.
There we go.
Let's go fishing, guys.
So, we're gonna keep a really good eye on these bobbers.
If they go down, I'll let you know.
See if we hook anything.
Obviously, we don't want to kill whatever it is.
We just want to take a closer look.
Yeah.
And I think setting the bait out there.
Might just do the trick.
How we looking, guys? Are we having any movement at all back there? Nothing yet.
Let's head over back where you picked up.
The first sonar reading.
All right.
Whoa! Are you going straight? Sure am.
Whoa! Whoa! Whoa, whoa! I can feel it.
It's trying to hold the boat.
If we can't see it, let's see if we can feed it.
Austin, are you going straight? Sure am.
Whoa! We're onto something now.
These things went right under.
Whatever this is, is stronger than the boat.
It's trying to hold the boat.
Yeah.
Cut the engine.
Whoa! Let's go check it out.
Let's go back and see if we even have any bait left.
Raystown.
We interview our witnesses.
They actually, to me, Seemed really pretty credible.
Yeah.
So, after speaking with the witnesses, We wanted to start on our experiments, The first one being the theory that it's gonna be some type.
Of log floating out there.
If you take a really close look, Bv t's othiot xthateuse otcolochdo nat m u.
If you take a really close look, So ie wde our second experiment, Which was the re-creation of making our own ray.
Now, this semelo cr.
Still, 'tt mewasng.
Sin.
Rgub now, this semelo cr.
U coyodn jus'tt make it duck underwater.
Like people were saying the original was doing.
So, after doing that, We decided to do an investigation of the lake.
Austin went out on his boat equipped with sonar.
He discovered something under the water.
That seemed like it was a considerable size.
Jael and I went out there, dove in the water.
Visibility was terribly poor.
Whatever it was, we couldn't see it.
So, after doing that, we tried to get it closer to us, And we trolled around trying to attract this thing.
Towards our bait.
And there was a moment there.
Where we thought we were onto something pretty big.
Whoa! Whoa, whoa! Whoa! Look out.
Whatever this is, is stronger than the boat.
Turns out we were onto something big.
We were actually snagged, though, on the bottom.
We hooked on a rock or a tree or something 'cause it literally just jolted.
You guys did a really good job replicating the photo.
But you guys were out there.
What do you guys think it is? I think we have so many credible witnesses.
And people saying they have seen something, There still may actually be.
Some large creature out in the lake.
Just having captured something on the sonar.
And all of these other sightings, Yeah, I'm pretty convinced that something's down there.
Well, from what I'm seeing from what you guys have done, I say this remains unexplained.
Yeah, well, you know, with so many witnesses and this photo, There's a strong possibility.
That there is a sea creature dubbed ray.
Living in these waters.
I believe that there is something there.
So, this case is still unexplained.
So, I'm excited to hear.
What happened in the ghost-writer case.
As you recall, the homeowners had been communicating.
With a ghost named wright through polaroid pictures.
Mm-hmm.
They feel like something paranormal.
Is going on in their house, And they asked us to come in and check it out ourselves.
Here's what happened.
John.
Hey.
How's it going? Hey, bill.
Nice to see you.
Nice seeing you, too.
Thanks for allowing us to come into your home.
Well, I'm glad you guys could come here and help us.
Figure out what the hell is going on here.
Well, we can spend a few minutes talking about it.
All right.
How did the polaroids get started in the first place? I mean, what's the origin behind that? Christmas 1991, I got a polaroid camera from my dad.
I had felt things here.
Since I moved in in 1990 for a couple of years, And a lot of people had.
So, I was sitting there working at the table, And the bathroom door opened.
And we had joked about.
Whether you could get a picture of something or not, And so I thought, "well, that's a good enough sign.
So, I took a picture, and nothing showed up, And then I closed the door and got back to work, And it did it again.
And so I took another picture, and then this thing showed up.
So, what did you see in the first polaroids you took? Different shapes of light.
We kept taking them and taking them.
And trying to come up with what could possibly be causing it.
So we brought a bunch of friends over, and we said, "well, we got something to show you guys.
" We showed them the photographs.
They were like, "oh, this is so cool.
How did you do this? " One of our friends said, "well, is he here now?" And somebody grabbed the camera and snapped a picture, And then we were looking at it, and we saw it.
And it was literally 45 minutes before we realized.
That it actually said something, and it said "yes.
" Next logical question was, "what's your name?" And that was the second polaroid.
And he said his name was wright.
At one point, we asked if he was a good ghost or a bad ghost, And he answered, "friend.
" Oh.
Oh, wow.
"is it difficult to communicate with us?" "takes a dead lift.
" Years ago, a psychic friend of ours claimed.
That there was a dead body under the house, And he showed us right where, or within a certain perimeter, Where this body would be.
I'd be willing to climb under there.
Let's take it inside.
Thank you.
In here is where the vortex -- This is where we've alwa been told the vortex is, Right in front of the bathroom.
And this is supposedly the portal.
Where all the spirits, entities, whatever, enter, And then they shoot across there and exit by the stove.
Right here is the area where the dead body.
Is supposed to be buried.
So, we're, like, standing over it? Yeah.
All right.
Let's get started.
We're gonna do what john has been doing for years -- Ask some questions at the place.
Where john believes there is a vortex, Snap a photo, and see if anything's been written.
On the polaroids.
You guys ready? Yeah.
Okay, so, this is brand-new.
Brand-new.
That's it.
When you look at the way the pictures were all taken, They were all taken in this direction.
Remember, this is the vortex and this is the flow of energy, So they're all taken pretty much in this direction, So we should really focus on shooting here And here.
I want to know How many of you are here? Are you helping us in our investigation? Can you speak to us please? You guys get anything? Nothing.
I got nothing in mine, too.
No written responses appeared in our polaroids.
Maybe the entity is not ready to send us a message yet.
But in the meantime, We now have to begin to explore the possibility.
That this ghost-writer event may be something man-made.
A lot of theories are floating out that the reason.
Why this polaroid gets crazy ghost writing on it.
Is because it's actually a play on exposure, So we've gone ahead and developed the acetate test.
Where we will take a piece of clear acetate, paint it, Take undeveloped polaroid film, Pre-expose it with writing on it, Feed it back into the camera, and then take a picture with it, So then it actually gets a double exposure on it -- The first time with the writing And the second time with our image.
And that will give us our ghostly writing.
On our own polaroid.
But what we want to do is take this and make it opaque.
Once we get an opaque layer here, We're gonna actually scratch in the lettering, Put it over so then light will actually filter.
Through the lettering that we've scratched Okay.
And the rest of it will stay unexposed.
That will actually burn that light image into the film.
So, the next thing we're gonna do is head into the dark room.
So, this is my pack of film.
I'm gonna jump down on the ground.
I'm actually gonna eject the film now, one by one.
Larry, can you hand me one of the acetates? One.
Okay, and this is up.
So, I'm gonna hold it up to the film, And I'm gonna have you go ahead and take my digital camera.
And just take a picture so that the flash exposes the film.
And flash.
Now that we've exposed every single one of our polaroids, We have to put it back into the cartridge.
As if it hasn't been touched.
So, all we have to do now is open up this pack, Load it into our camera, and take own ghost polaroids.
Well, let's get to it.
Okay.
Put this in.
And eject the dummy.
There you go.
Oh.
Bingo.
Okay.
And I have them in the order that they were taken, but, uh Oh.
Whoa! This is weird! We're gonna actually scratch in the lettering.
That will actually burn at light image into the film.
Put this in.
Whoa! Whoa! This is weird! What is is stuff? This is strange.
Yeah.
Our polaroid experiment.
Actually had some really confusing results.
Take a look at this - this is the actual polaroid.
That we did in our situation room.
And you can tell the writing is there, And even though the lighting is off, It looks pretty close.
To what the ghost-writer photographs look like.
But when we did the same eerim.
En.
Rihe g-wst-whor ok at what happened.
There are blobs of light instead of actual text.
Our polaroid experiment was inconclusive.
And didn't give us the information that we needed, So now we're gonna focus on the video, And we're gonna see if the video was faked.
To do that, we're gonna use a very large sheet of plexiglas.
And put ghost-writer words on it.
All right, that's as tight as it's gonna get.
So, you remember the video of the ghost writing that we saw? This is gonna help us re-create that video.
And here's the photograph.
It just came out of the camera.
"corpus delicti.
" To mimic the video, larry and I are gonna stand.
On one side of the plexiglas.
Bill is gonna go ahead and put ghost-writer phrases.
On the glass.
Larry and I are gonna shoot bill through the plexiglas, Avoiding the ghost writing on the bottom of the plexi.
Bill is then gonna take a polaroid of us.
With the ghost writing in his frame.
So, hopefully, that'll explain the possible paranormal event.
That was captured on john's video.
All right.
Let's give it a try.
You ready? Polaroid number one.
Ooh, I see the writing appearing right now.
Beginning to develop.
Hold it still, bill.
'cause it's coming out, and I see it.
You know what the problem is? I'm seeing a reflection of your red light in the plexi, And my camera's actually focusing on your red light.
Oh, yeah.
I see yours now, too.
And that's what's causing my camera.
To notocus on the polaroid any longer.
This plexiglas, it's full of reflections -- Light bouncing off of the wooden bookcases, The shiny book covers, the kitchen utensils.
Everything right now is bouncing light.
In this dark environment.
Here's something else that's a real issue.
When I look at this photo, I can see the flash bounce from my camera.
I have to admit I think we're all.
A little disappointed by the results.
The picture that bill took was somewhat convincing, But it was the video.
That just didn't look anything like the original.
There was no way we could keep the glares out.
So, it didn't replicate it, by any means.
The plexiglas experiment did not work.
If we cannot re-create this event inside the house, Maybe there is something paranormal.
Occurring outside the house.
John mentioned to us the psychic told him.
That there could be a body buried under the house.
Directly below where john believes.
The vortex exists in the living room.
To search under the house, We brought in an expert in ground-penetrating radar.
We essentially develop a two-dimensional image.
As we move an antenna along the ground's surface, And that image is used to identify reflection patterns.
That could conceivably show us where something's buried.
Could this potentially find a dead body under the ground? It should.
We're gonna go down underneath the house, And we're gonna have to move the antenna, the radar antenna, Ong the ground's surface.
And as we go along, We'll probably make ticks to identify various points.
That all comes back to the recording system.
That we'll be standing at, looking at.
If you guys see something on the screen, let us know.
We'll excavate those locations.
Where an anomalous signal appears.
Yeah.
We've placed the cameras in a spot.
Where not only can you see what we're doing, But you can see us, as well, so just keep an eye on us.
Make sure we're all right.
Definitely.
Definitely.
All right, guys.
I'm rolling.
You guys can head on in.
All right.
I'm gonna pull it down.
Okay.
Go ahead and go whenever you're ready.
Ep the movement of the antenna continuous.
Try to make those clicks.
Roger that.
Keep going.
Keep going.
Ah, right there.
This is some kind of reflection.
It's something buried there off the edge.
Hey, guys, see if you can dig.
Anything up from that area.
A what? Hey, we just found some bones! We're gonna go down underneath the house, And we're gonna have to move the radar antenna.
Hey, we just found some bones! I found another bone! Two bones! Well, just see if you can excavate.
Anhing else from that site.
More! More bones! We actually und three now! It'shree bones.
They're found underneath the area.
Where the vortex is that john identified.
We got a really good intervi with the residents of the house.
Dung the interview, they mentioned.
That a body could possibly be bied under the house.
And we went under there to do a dig, And we found Bones.
I have them right here.
Actually had them analyzed by dr.
Wake.
He is the director.
Of zooarchaeological laboratory at ucla.
And, well, what he had to say was pretty interesting.
This is a cow bone.
And this is a chicken bone.
I think that a lot of this case, it seems like, Will really rely on whether you believe.
That these witnesses are credible or not.
Actually, I was able to do a layered voice analysis.
Over this interview, as well, like we've done in the past, And I actually would like to show you.
The results of that right now.
I think you're gonna find these results very interesting.
So, one of the polaroids they took, He says it had writing on it, And he's being completely truthful.
So, what's your final thought on this, bill? Between our inability to replicate the results.
By manipulating the film directly or with the plexiglas, Plus the fact that they seem to be truthful.
In the entire case, It just remains completely mind-boggling to me, And it still can't be solved.
I agree.
I have to follow that layered-voice analysis.
I think what they're telling us is true.
I got to tell you -- I'm baffled.
I've dona lot of photography in my day, And I've studied a lot, and the fact that I can do this, And I can have the same results, But yet I can't do it when we're on site, Really just confuses me.
I agreed that case is not a hoax.
I think we need file this as an unexplained.
