My Ghost Story (2010) s05e10 Episode Script
Asylum 49
Andersen: YOU CAN SEE THE SHADOW MANIFEST, AND THEN HE STARTS TO WALK ACROSS THE HALLWAY.
Epperley: WE KNOW IT'S NOT A PERSON.
I'M 100% CONVINCED THAT THE SHADOW IN THE VIDEO WAS AN ACTUAL SPIRIT.
Boyd: I HEAR TYLER SAY, "THE DOOR!" IT'S THE MOST UNEXPLAINABLE THING I'VE EVER SEEN.
Krawcyzk: THERE'S NO DOUB ABOUT IT.
THE PLACE IS HAUNTED.
Bethune: HE DID CATCH A PHOTOGRAPH OF A MAN'S FACE LOOKING BACK TOWARDS US.
Power: IT WAS ALMOST LIKE IT WAS WATCHING ME BUT JUST NOT LETTING ITS PRESENCE KNOWN.
Bethune: I BELIEVE IT WAS ONE OF THE SAILORS THAT IS STILL ON THE SHIP.
Brigati: YOU HEAR A MAN'S VOICE GO, "NO!" AND THE FAN IN THE CORNER TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF.
Hayes: IT ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED ME.
Davis: YOU SEE A SHADOW BEHIND HIS HEAD.
HE ACTUALLY CAUGHT IT ON FILM.
WE WEREN'T SURE WHAT WE WERE GETTING INTO.
Andersen: WHEN I WALK IN, YOU CAN TELL PEOPLE HAVE PASSED AWAY IN THERE.
Epperley: HE SAYS, "RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
" Andersen: WHEN I SEEN THAT, I WAS JUST LIKE [GASPS.]
I WALKED OUT OF THE FRONT DOOR, LOCKED THE HOSPITAL, AND I DIDN'T COME BACK FOR LIKE FIVE DAYS.
Andersen: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I OPENED A HAUNTED-HOUSE ATTRACTION.
THE NAME OF THE HAUNTED ATTRACTION THAT I RUN IS CALLED ASYLUM 49.
IT'S AN OLD HOSPITAL, SO WE WANTED TO ASSOCIATE I WITH A CRAZY HOUSE, SOMETHING THAT KIND OF HAS A SCARY, EERIE SOUND TO IT.
"49" CAME UP BECAUSE IT WAS THE YEAR THAT THE HOSPITAL STARTED CONSTRUCTION.
SO, WE DECIDED TO GO WITH ASYLUM 49.
WHEN I WALK IN, I KIND OF REFER TO IT AS BEING STEPHEN KING-ISH.
YOU CAN TELL PEOPLE HAVE PASSED AWAY IN THERE, SO YOU GE A REALLY EERIE FEELING.
I ONLY HAD ABOUT A MONTH TO PREPARE FOR THE HAUNTED HOUSE TO PUT IT UP.
AND SO, I SPENT A LOT OF NIGHTS THERE UNTIL 2:00, 3:00 IN THE MORNING JUST DECORATING FOR THE HAUNTED HOUSE.
I HAD DECIDED I NEEDED TO HAVE A MAZE-LIKE SETTING IN THERE, SO I TOOK THE CURTAINS, AND I PUT THEM IN THE HALLWAY.
I PLACED THEM SO WHEN PEOPLE WALKED THROUGH THE HALLWAY, THEY WOULD HAVE A PATH TO FOLLOW.
AND WHEN I FINISHED HANGING THE LAST CURTAIN, I WENT BACK, AND I SHUT ALL THE CURTAINS.
I WALKED DOWN THE FIRST HALLWAY, AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE.
THE MAZE WENT THROUGH GREAT.
I WALKED BACK INTO THE HOSPITAL FROM THE BACK SIDE, OPENED THE DOOR TO GO DOWN THE SECOND HALLWAY, AND ALL THE CURTAINS WERE OPEN.
AND I WAS LIKE, "WHAT THE HECK?" I THOUGHT SOMEBODY WAS PLAYING A TRICK ON ME, BUT IT WAS 3:00 AT NIGHT.
THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND.
I WALKED OUT OF THE FRONT DOOR, LOCKED THE HOSPITAL, AND I DIDN'T COME BACK FOR LIKE FIVE DAYS.
Epperley: I ACTUALLY VOLUNTEERED AT THE HOSPITAL ABOUT SIX OR SEVEN YEARS AGO AS AN ACTOR.
AND THEN I WAS BROUGHT IN AS A MANAGER AND THEN BOUGHT IN ON THE THIRD YEAR AS AN OWNER.
KIMM IS MY BEST FRIEND, AND WE JUST WORK REALLY WELL TOGETHER.
WHAT WE DO IS WE GO THROUGH AND WE OPEN UP THE HAUNTED ATTRACTION.
MY PARTNER KIMM WILL WALK THROUGH AND LET THE ACTORS KNOW, "HEY, WE'RE OPENING THE DOORS IN FIVE MINUTES.
BE READY.
" Andersen: AND I WENT INTO A ROOM THAT WE HAD THIS LITTLE VASE PROPPED UPON A TABLE, AND ALL THE FLOWERS WERE ON THE FLOOR.
AND I KIND OF TALKED TO THE KIDS.
I SAID, "LISTEN, YOU KNOW, I ASKED YOU GUYS, PLEASE, DON'T MESS WITH THE PROPS.
" THEY WERE LIKE, "WE DIDN'T DO THAT.
WE DIDN'T TAKE THEM OUT.
THEY CAME OUT ON THEIR OWN.
" AND SO, I PICKED THEM ALL UP OFF THE FLOOR AND PUT THEM IN THE VASE.
AND I THOUGHT, "OH, I'M GONNA CATCH THEM IN THE ACT.
" SO, I GO BACK OUT OF THE ROOM, AND I WENT BACK BEHIND AND SNUCK BACK IN.
I PEEK AROUND THE CORNER JUST IN TIME TO SEE THE FLOWER POP OUT OF THE VASE.
[ WHISTLES .]
Epperley: AT THE TIME WE DIDN' HAVE TIME TO THINK, YOU KNOW, "IS THIS PARANORMAL? WHAT'S HAPPENING?" WE JUST STUFFED THE FLOWERS BACK IN THE VASE AND TRIED TO CONVINCE THE ACTORS THEY NEEDED TO GO ON AND MOVED ON.
Andersen: IT REALLY FREAKED ME OUT.
I MEAN, THIS WAS MY BUSINESS, AND SO I HAD TO BE THERE ON A DAILY BASIS AND DEAL WITH IT.
SO, I DECIDED TO HIT IT HEAD ON AND FIND OU WHAT WAS REALLY AROUND ME.
I STARTED DOING SOME INVESTIGATIONS IN THE HOSPITAL.
Epperley: WE USED K-II METERS, EVP RECORDERS, NIGHT VISION, INFRARED CAMERAS, STILL PHOTOGRAPHY, ALL KINDS OF EQUIPMEN TO GATHER PARANORMAL EVIDENCE.
Andersen: ONE NIGHT, I STARTED DOING THE WALK-THROUGH AND I GOT THROUGH THE MAZE.
SO, I WALKED INTO THE NEXT ROOM, AND ALL MY CAS FROM ALL THOSE ROOMS WERE HUDDLED IN THE NURSES' STATION.
AND I ASKED, "WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING? THERE'S PEOPLE COMING INTO THE HOSPITAL.
" THEY SAID, "NO.
"WE'RE NOT WORKING HERE TONIGHT.
THERE'S NO WAY.
" AND I SAID, "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" THEY SAID, "THERE'S A GHOST OF A LITTLE GIRL OUT IN THE HALLWAY.
"WE'RE NOT GONNA GO WORK.
WE'RE TOO AFRAID.
" AND I SAID, "WELL, YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY.
" I GET OUT INTO THE HALLWAY, AND I LOOK OUT THERE, AND STANDING IN PATIENT ROOM TWO IS THE SPIRIT OF A LITTLE GIRL.
SHE STOOD ABOU MAYBE 4 1/2 FEET TALL.
SHE HAD LONG, BLACK HAIR.
THE ODDER THING WAS I COULD HEAR HER.
SHE HAD HER HANDS OVER HER EYES LIKE THIS, AND SHE WAS CRYING, "IT'S NOT FAIR.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
" AND THEN THIS BLACK MIS JUST KIND OF DRIFTED UNDERNEATH THE BEDS.
Epperley: MY DAUGHTER IS ONE OF OUR TOUR GUIDES, AND SHE WAS GOING THROUGH WITH SOME OF HER FRIENDS ONE NIGHT TAKING SOME PICTURES.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
SHE SNAPPED SOME PHOTOS AND SHE GOT HOME AND SHE SHOWS ME.
"MY GOSH, DAD, LOOK A THIS PICTURE IN THIS WINDOW.
" AND THERE'S, LO AND BEHOLD, THIS YOUNG LADY SITTING ON THE FLOOR WITH A DRESS SPREAD OU OVER HER LEGS.
WE SHOWED THE PICTURE TO KIMM, AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW, "THAT'S THE GIRL THAT I HAD THE CONVERSATION WITH.
" Andersen: WHEN I LOOKED AT THE PHOTO, IT WAS EXACTLY WHAT I SAW.
SHE HAD THE LONG BLACK HAIR, EXCEPT FOR IN THE PHOTO SHE'S ACTUALLY SITTING DOWN.
IT REALLY KIND OF AT FIRS JUST STARTLED ME.
I'VE BEEN TAUGHT MY WHOLE LIFE THAT GHOSTS DON'T EXIST, AND NOW I'VE SEEN IT AND HAVE SOME EVIDENCE TO BACK IT UP.
WE DON'T KNOW WHO THE LITTLE SPIRIT GIRL IS, BUT FOR WHATEVER REASON, SHE FEELS COMFORTABLE ENOUGH THERE, AND I THINK THAT SHE LIKES THA WE'RE DOING THE HAUNTED HOUSE AND ALL THE OTHER KIDS ARE THERE HAVING FUN.
AND SHE JUST WANTS TO BE A PART OF THAT, AND SHE FEELS SAFE THERE.
SOON AFTER THAT, I WAS GIVING A TOUR OF THE HOSPITAL.
I TURNED TO COME OU OF THE CONFERENCE ROOM.
Epperley: HE HAD ABOUT 10 OR 15 PEOPLE, AND HE'S TALKING AND HE STOPS MID-SENTENCE AND MAKES EYE CONTACT WITH ME.
AND HE SAYS, "RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
" Andersen: AS I CAME OU OF THE CONFERENCE ROOM, I LOOKED DOWN THE HALLWAY, AND I THOUGH I'D SEEN THIS SHADOW STARTING TO WALK BACK TO THE DOORWAY.
[ WIND RUSHING .]
IT'S AT THIS MOMEN THAT I REALIZED, "THIS IS REAL.
" Epperley: I CAUGHT I OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE, AND WHEN I TURNED AROUND, THEN IT WAS GONE.
IT WAS QUITE A DRAMATIC, INTENSE EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYONE THERE THAT EVENING.
AFTER THE TOUR WAS OVER, CURIOSITY GOT THE BEST OF ME.
I WENT TO THE CAMERAS, AND I REWOUND THE VIDEO.
RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ON THE VIDEO OFF TO THE RIGHT OF THE SCREEN, YOU SEE THE SHADOW MANIFEST, AND THEN HE STARTS TO WALK ACROSS THE HALLWAY.
Epperley: YOU CAN SEE THE OUTLINE OF FEET AND LEGS AND HANDS AND ARMS AND THE HEAD.
YOU COULD SEE ALL THA THROUGH THE SHADOW.
SO, WE KNOW IT'S NOT A PERSON.
Andersen: I DON'T KNOW IF WE STARTLED HIM OR IF HE WAS JUST TURNING, BUT HE TURNS TOWARDS THE CAMERA.
AND AS SOON AS HE SEES US, HE STARTS TO WALK BACK OFF INTO THE DOORWAY.
WHEN I SEEN THAT, I WAS JUST LIKE [GASPS.]
I THINK THAT WAS THE TURNING POINT FOR ME.
Epperley: I'M 100% CONVINCED THAT THE SHADOW IN THE VIDEO WAS AN ACTUAL SPIRIT.
A FEW WEEKS LATER, WE WERE IN THE X-RAY ROOM.
WE HAD A GENTLEMEN CONTACT US AND WANTED TO COME THERE AND DO A PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION.
AND HE HAD A CAMERA THAT HE WAS TRYING TO DEVELOP A FILTER THAT WOULD CATCH A GHOST SHADOW PICTURE -- YOU KNOW, A SHADOW ENTITY.
HE SAID, "WHY DON'T YOU STEP OVER IN FRONT OF THE X-RAY TABLE THERE.
" HE SNAPS THREE PHOTOS, AND THEN HE LOOKS AT THE CAMERA TO REVIEW IT.
AND HE'S LIKE, "HOLY COW.
YOU GOT TO SEE THIS.
" SO, I WALK OVER AND I LOOK, AND STANDING BETWEEN WHERE I WAS SITTING AND WHERE HE TOOK THE PICTURE WAS A FULL-FORM SHADOW WALKING THIS WAY TO ME.
Andersen: IT WAS REALLY COOL.
YOU COULD ACTUALLY SEE IT LOOKED LIKE A HOSPITAL SMOCK THAT HE WAS WEARING.
IT HAD THE BIG COLLAR WITH THE POCKET AND THE LONGER FRONT.
AND SO, WE STARTED TO DO SOME INVESTIGATING AND DID AN EVP SESSION IN THERE.
AND WE ASKED FOR THEM TO TELL US THEIR NAME.
Epperley: AND WE GOT A FIRS AND LAST NAME.
THE EVP SAID, "PETER HANSFORD.
" Andersen: ONE OF THE NURSES THAT HAD BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE RECALLED PETER HANSFORD WORKING THERE AS A VOLUNTEER AS A RADIOLOGIST, WHICH GOES ALONG WITH EVERYTHING WE THOUGHT.
IT LOOKED LIKE HE HAD A LITTLE SMOCK ON.
IT WAS IN THE X-RAY ROOM.
IT DIDN'T GET MUCH BETTER THAN THAT.
Epperley: I'M 100% CONVINCED THAT PETER HANSFORD IS THE SPIRI THAT'S IN THE PHOTOGRAPH WITH ME BECAUSE WE'VE ACTUALLY ASKED HIM AND GOT AN AFFIRMATIVE RESPONSE THAT IT WAS PETER.
Andersen: YEAH, I BELIEVE WITHOUT A DOUB THAT THAT WAS PETER HANSFORD AND HE WAS JUST IN THERE TO TELL US HE'S STILL HERE.
IF SOMEBODY HAD TOLD ME THE HOSPITAL WAS HAUNTED, I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY TOLD THEM THEY WERE CRAZY.
"GHOSTS DON'T EXIST.
THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS HAUNTINGS.
" IT'S JUST AN OLD HOSPITAL.
THIS EXPERIENCE HAS PROBABLY BEEN ONE OF THE BIGGEST LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCES THAT I HAVE HAD.
Epperley: AFTER SEEING ALL THE EVIDENCE THAT WE'VE GATHERED AT THE HOSPITAL -- THE PHOTOS, THE VIDEOS, EVPs, AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES -- I AM 100% CONVINCED THAT THE HOSPITAL IS HAUNTED.
Andersen: I DIDN'T BELIEVE IN THE PARANORMAL BEFORE.
I SURE DO NOW.
Hodgson: THERE WAS FACES IN THE WINDOW.
Davis: IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE LOOKING FROM THE INSIDE OUTWARD AT US.
Hodgson: THERE'S ONE ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SNAKES IN THE HAIR.
Davis: AT THAT POINT, IT HIT ME THAT OBVIOUSLY WE'RE NOT WELCOME.
Hodgson: THERE WAS FACES IN THE WINDOW.
ONE ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SNAKES IN THE HAIR.
Davis: THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THERE WITH US.
Hodgson: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST GHOST HUN AT THE OLD BLACKFORD COUNTY HOSPITAL.
THE OWNER'S DAUGHTER HAD CONTACTED US, TELLING US OF THINGS THAT HAD TAKEN PLACE THERE.
THERE WERE NUMEROUS NOISES [ WIND HOWLS .]
THIS BEING MY VERY FIRS INVESTIGATION, I WAS REALLY EXCITED.
I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT.
I KNEW OF A VETERAN INVESTIGATOR, ADAM DAVIS.
I ASKED HIM TO COME ALONG WITH US TO THIS INVESTIGATION.
Davis: THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING IS NOT REALLY ANYTHING DIFFEREN THAN YOU WOULD EXPEC AN OLD HOSPITAL TO LOOK LIKE.
IT WASN'T REAL WELL-MAINTAINED.
IT WAS ABANDONED.
Hodgson: WHEN I FIRST ARRIVED, I TOOK SOME PICTURES OF THE BUILDING.
I WALKED AROUND.
SOME OF THE PICTURES, THERE WAS FACES IN THE WINDOW.
I HANDED THE CAMERA TO ADAM.
Davis: IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE LOOKING FROM THE INSIDE OUTWARD AT US.
SHE SAID, "THAT'S THE EXAC SAME THING THAT I WAS THINKING.
" Hodgson: THERE'S ONE THAT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SNAKES IN THE HAIR THAT'S LIKE RIGHT IN THE VERY CENTER OF THE PICTURE.
AND THE ONE ON THE LEFT SIDE, UNDERNEATH THE EYES YOU CAN SEE HOW THE NOSE COMES OUT.
IT'S A LOT LONGER THAN NORMAL.
ON THE RIGHT SIDE, THERE'S ONE THAT LOOKS ALMOS LIKE A DEVIL'S FACE.
[ GROWLING .]
Davis: AFTER SEEING THAT PHOTO, WE WEREN'T SURE WHAT WE WERE GETTING INTO.
Hodgson: AS I WALKED INTO THE HOSPITAL, I NOTICED THAT THE WALLS, THE FLOOR, AND THE CEILING WAS SWEATING.
[ WATER TRICKLING .]
IT HADN'T RAINED, SO WHERE THAT WATER WAS COMING FROM I HAD NO IDEA.
Davis: YOU COULD TOUCH IT, AND YOUR HAND WOULD BE WET.
TO SEE THAT MUCH WATER IN A PLACE THAT DOESN'T HAVE WATER DOESN'T ADD UP.
Hodgson: THE OWNER'S DAUGHTER WAS GIVING US A WALK-THROUGH OF THE BUILDING.
AS WE WENT FROM ROOM TO ROOM, WE DID SEE THE SHADOWS ALONG THE WALLS.
YOU WOULD SEE THEM TURN THE CORNER, AND JUST AS YOU WERE GETTING TO IT, YOU WOULD SEE THEM JUST EVERYWHERE IN EVERY ROOM OF THE BUILDING.
WHEN I WAS AT THE END OF THE HALLWAY, I HAD A FEELING OF DREAD LIKE SOMETHING REALLY BAD WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN.
[ HISSING .]
WE WENT INTO THE LAUNDRY ROOM.
THERE WAS ACTUALLY TWO PHOTOS TAKEN OF THE WASHER AND DRIER.
I TOOK ONE OF THE PICTURES, AND ANOTHER INVESTIGATOR TOOK ANOTHER PICTURE.
THEY WERE THREE SECONDS APART.
Davis: JENN'S PHOTO REVEALED A VERY CLEAR PICTURE OF A NURSE'S HEAD IN THE WINDOW OF THE WASHING MACHINE.
Hodgson: YOU COULD SEE THE SILHOUETTE OF HER FACE.
YOU COULD SEE THE HAT.
I MEAN, IT WAS CRYSTAL CLEAR.
Davis: I THINK THA IS A SPIRIT OF A NURSE THAT WORKED IN THE HOSPITAL OR HAD A HISTORY WITH THAT HOSPITAL.
AT ONE POINT, WE WALKED INTO THE CHAPEL OF THE HOSPITAL.
WE HAD GONE IN THERE TO DO AN EVP SESSION.
WE WERE ALL STANDING AROUND, AND THEN I STARTED TO FEEL AS IF I HAD SOME COBWEBS OR I'D WALKED INTO COBWEBS.
SO, I STARTED TO KIND OF KNOCK THEM -- BRUSH THEM OFF MY HAIR.
JENN LOOKS AT ME AND SAYS, "WHAT'S GOING ON? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" I SAID, "WELL, I WALKED INTO SOME COBWEBS.
" AND SHE TELLS ME, "YOU REALIZE WE HAVEN'T MOVED IN FOUR OR FIVE MINUTES.
" AT THAT POINT, IT HIT ME THAT THERE WASH SOMETHING IN THERE WITH US.
Hodgson: WE SET UP CAMERAS IN A LOT OF THE ROOMS AND A LOT OF THE HALLWAYS.
ONE HALLWAY IN PARTICULAR YOU ALWAYS FELT LIKE SOMETHING WAS WATCHING YOU AND SOMETHING WAS FOLLOWING YOU.
IT WAS ALWAYS JUST RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
YOU WOULD LOOK AND THERE WOULD BE NOTHING THERE.
Davis: WHEN WE WATCH THE VIDEO BACK, YOU SEE THIS LIGH COME SHOOTING DOWN THE HALLWAY, AND IT'S FOLLOWING US.
IT COULD HAVE BEEN A SPIRI OF SOMEONE THAT HAD WORKED IN THE HOSPITAL, MAYBE A CHILD.
WE COULD FEEL THAT THERE WERE THINGS AROUND, BUT TO SEE THAT LIGHT SHOO STRAIGHT DOWN THAT HALLWAY, FOLLOWING US CLOSELY -- I REALLY WASN'T EXPECTING THAT.
Hodgson: ONE OF THE PIECES OF EVIDENCE THAT WE GO WAS IN THE KITCHEN.
I ASKED THE QUESTION, "DO YOU WANT US TO LEAVE?" Davis: WHEN WE LISTENED BACK TO THE AUDIO, WE VERY PLAINLY HEARD, "GET OUT.
" WHATEVER WAS THERE DID NOT LIKE US BEING THERE, AND IT DID NOT WANT US TO COME BACK.
I STILL DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE.
I WAS STILL CURIOUS, BUT I WAS CAUTIOUS THAT SOMETHING BAD COULD HAPPEN BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY, WE'RE NOT WELCOME.
AFTER THAT, WE HEADED UP TO THE SECOND FLOOR, AND WE WERE SITTING IN A ROOM DOING AN EVP SESSION.
IT WAS VERY CLEAR THA SOMETHING HAD ENTERED THE ROOM THAT WAS NOT IN HUMAN FORM.
[ HISSING .]
THE TEMPERATURE CHANGED.
THE AIR ITSELF, THE ATMOSPHERE JUST GOT HEAVY.
IT GOT A LITTLE BI HARDER TO BREATHE.
AND ONE OF OUR INVESTIGATORS IS SITTING, AND YOU SEE A SHADOW ACTUALLY MOVE BEHIND HIS HEAD.
SEVERAL OF US IN THE ROOM SAW IT, BUT WHA WAS EVEN MORE MIND-BLOWING WAS THAT WE ACTUALLY CAUGHT IT ON FILM.
Hodgson: WE WERE SHOCKED.
WE PLAYED THAT BACK NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE WE WERE JUST IN AWE OF WHAT WAS THERE.
Davis: THAT WAS THE MOS INCREDIBLE THING THAT I'VE EVER SEEN.
Hodgson: AT THE END OF THE EVENING, WE TRULY WANTED TO GO TO THE BASEMENT.
[ HISSING .]
IN THE BASEMEN IS WHERE THE MORGUE IS.
Davis: EVERY TIME THAT ANYONE HAD EVER TRIED TO INVESTIGATE THE BASEMENT, IT HAD BEEN FLOODED.
Hodgson: THERE WAS NO RHYME OR REASON FOR THAT TO BE FLOODED.
Davis: WHATEVER IS THERE WOULD GO TO ANY LENGTH TO KEEP YOU OUT.
Hodgson: IT'S JUST CREEPY.
Davis: THE DAY BEFORE WE WERE COMING, THE OWNERS OF THE BUILDING ACTUALLY HAD THE WATER PUMPED OUT.
WHEN YOU STAR TO WALK DOWN THE BASEMENT, IT GETS VERY HEAVY, ALMOST LIKE YOU'VE GOT PRESSURE ON YOUR CHEST.
AND IT'S HARD TO TAKE A DEEP BREATH.
IT'S A VERY ODD SENSATION.
AND IT'S NOT LIKE ANYTHING THAT I'VE EVER FELT BEFORE.
AFTER FEELING THOSE STRONG FEELINGS, WE DECIDED IT WAS A GOOD TIME TO NOT PRESS OUR LUCK AND GET OUT WHILE WE COULD.
Hodgson: I REALLY BELIEVE WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL THAT THERE'S SOMETHING THAT'S EVIL IN THAT BASEMEN THAT DOESN'T WANT ANYONE IN THERE.
Davis: I'VE BEEN ON ABOUT 40 TO 50 OTHER INVESTIGATIONS.
THE ACTIVITY THAT HAPPENS AT THE OLD BLACKFORD COUNTY HOSPITAL IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER PLACE THAT I HAVE BEEN.
Hodgson: I WOULD CHALLENGE ANY INVESTIGATOR TO TAKE A CHANCE AND GO INTO THIS HOSPITAL.
IF THEY'RE NOT A BELIEVER IN THE PARANORMAL, THIS PLACE WILL MAKE THEM A BELIEVER.
[ HISSING .]
Boyd: I SPRINTED DOWN THOSE STAIRS.
WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
IT WAS THE CREEPIEST THING IN MY LIFE.
WE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
Boyd: I SPRINTED DOWN THOSE STAIRS.
WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
WE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
Boyd: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I VISITED AN OLD FUNERAL HOME IN JOLIET, ILLINOIS.
I'VE BEEN INVESTIGATING THE PARANORMAL FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW WITH MY FRIEND TYLER.
Krawcyzk: JOE AND I WENT ON ABOUT 20 INVESTIGATIONS BEFORE WE WEN TO THE FUNERAL HOME, SO WE HAVE A PRETTY GOOD AMOUN OF EXPERIENCE.
WE HEARD ABOUT THIS LOCATION BECAUSE OF ITS RICH HISTORY, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE DIED IN THE HOUSE.
Boyd: THE FUNERAL HOME WAS BUIL IN 1902 BY A.
C.
CLEMENT, WHO WAS A PROMINENT BUSINESSMAN IN JOLIET.
AND HIS WIFE DIED IN THE BUILDING, AND HE ALSO DIED THERE.
AND THEN HIS KIDS TOOK THE FUNERAL HOME AND SOLD IT TO THE AYOLAS, WHO TURNED IT INTO A REST HAVEN HOME FOR CHILDREN.
IT WAS SHUT DOWN 10 YEARS LATER BY THE STATE BECAUSE THERE WAS ALLEGED ABUSE AND NEGLECT AND DEATHS THERE.
Krawcyzk: AND THEN IT TURNED INTO THE BLACKBURN FUNERAL HOME FOR 20 YEARS UNTIL IT TURNED INTO RESIDENCY, AND NOW IT'S A HOUSE.
Boyd: LEGEND HAS IT THA THE CLEMENTS DO HAUNT THE PLACE.
A.
C.
IS BELIEVED TO BE ONE OF THE MAIN SPIRITS THERE.
Krawcyzk: SPIRITS OF CHILDREN ARE ALSO KNOWN TO LINGER AROUND THE AREA.
Boyd: THERE ARE ALSO MANY DARKER SPIRITS THAT ARE SUPPOSEDLY FROM THE REST HAVEN HOME THAT PROTECT THE PLACE AND DO NOT WANT ANYBODY IN THERE.
Krawcyzk: AS WE ARRIVED ON THE SCENE, IT WAS REALLY CREEPY.
Boyd: IT WAS LIKE AN OLD VICTORIAN HOUSE, AND IT JUST LOOKS LIKE YOUR CLASSIC HAUNTED HOUSE.
ON INVESTIGATIONS, ME AND TYLER USUALLY START OFF WITH A WALK-THROUGH.
DURING THE INITIAL WALK-THROUGH IN THE ATTIC, I DID NOT HAVE A GOOD FEELING.
AND WHEN WE WERE THROUGH IN THE ATTIC, WE WERE HEADING DOWN THE STAIRS, AND I ACTUALLY HEARD FOOTSTEPS BEHIND MINE.
I HEAR FOOTSTEPS.
[ SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY .]
I SPRINTED DOWN THOSE STAIRS.
THE FEELING WE GOT WAS THA IT'S GONNA BE AN ACTIVE NIGHT.
Krawcyzk: AFTER OUR WALK-THROUGH, THE FIRST PLACE WE INVESTIGATED WAS THE BASEMENT, WHICH WAS THE FORMER MORGUE WHEN IT WAS THE FUNERAL HOME.
Boyd: WE SET UP A FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERA ON A TRIPOD IN FRONT OF THE ONLY DOOR LEADING TO THE BASEMENT.
AND THE CAMERA WAS FACING US.
THINGS WERE KIND OF SLOW, AND WERE WERE ALL, LIKE, HAD HEADACHES.
AND IT WAS A VERY DARK FEELING DOWN THERE.
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, I HEAR TYLER SAY, "THE DOOR! THE DOOR!" Krawcyzk: AND EVERYONE WAS JUS KIND OF SITTING THERE IN AWE JUST WATCHING THE DOOR CLOSE.
AND IT HAD ENOUGH FORCE TO MOVE THE TRIPOD OUT OF THE WAY.
[ SCRAPING .]
[ SCRAPING .]
Boyd: WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
IT WAS THE CREEPIEST THING IN MY LIFE.
Krawcyzk: AFTER FREAKING OUT, WE KIND OF WENT THROUGH THE WHOLE THING AND TRIED DEBUNKING IT.
IT WAS A PRETTY HEAVY DOOR, AND ONCE YOU SET IT UP SO WHERE IT'S COMPLETELY OPEN, IT DOESN'T SHUT.
Boyd: IT WAS IN A BASEMENT.
THERE WAS NO WIND, NO WINDOWS.
WE WERE ALL STARING AT IT.
IT WAS NOT ONE OF US.
MY REACTION WHEN THE DOOR CLOSED WAS, "GET ME THE HELL OUT OF THERE.
" ON OUR INVESTIGATIONS, THE GEAR WE USUALLY USE ARE NIGHT-VISION CAMERAS, FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERAS, MEL METERS, OVILUS.
I MEAN, WE PRETTY MUCH HAVE EVERYTHING.
AN OVILUS IS A DEVICE WHICH HAS A WORD DATABASE OF 2,000 WORDS.
SPIRITS CAN SELECT THOSE WORDS BASED ON THE DIFFEREN EMF FIELDS THEY GIVE OFF.
IN THE BASEMENT, WHEN WE STARTED USING THE OVILUS, THE OVILUS WAS SPITTING OU SOME NASTY WORDS.
Krawcyzk: WHEN I HEARD "SATAN" ON THE OVILUS, EVERYONE KIND OF GASPED.
IT WAS REALLY CREEPY.
I WAS REALLY CREEPED OU BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THAT'S SOMETHING YOU DON' WANT TO MESS WITH -- SATAN.
I REALLY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT I WAS THAT SAID "SATAN.
" IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DARK SPIRIT.
IT COULD HAVE BEEN JUST SOMEONE TRYING TO SCARE US OUT OF THE BASEMENT.
Boyd: I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS FROM THIS LOCATION.
WE WERE DRAINED AND WE WERE ALL CREEPED OU AND WE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
Krawcyzk: WHEN WE GOT UPSTAIRS, WE WERE IN THE LIVING ROOM, AND WE DECIDED TO SET UP FOR AN EVP SESSION.
Boyd: TYLER WAS SETTING UP HIS CAMERAS, AND WE WERE HOPING TO CATCH SOMETHING.
SO, TYLER HAD THE CAMERA POINTED TOWARDS THE DOOR THAT LEADS UPSTAIRS.
Krawcyzk: I WAS LOOKING AT MY LCD SCREEN, AND AS SOON AS I LOOK UP, I SAW THIS MIST GO BY THE SCREEN.
[ HISSING .]
Boyd: HE WAS LIKE, "GUYS, YOU GOT TO COME CHECK THIS OUT.
" SO, WE ALL RUSHED OVER THERE, AND HE PLAYED IT BACK ON HIS LCD.
THERE IT WAS -- A MIST.
Krawcyzk: THE FIRST REACTION WAS EVERYONE THOUGH IT WAS HEADLIGHTS.
EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WAS MAYBE SOMEONE'S FLASHLIGHT.
Boyd: WHEN I FIRST SAW IT, I WAS SKEPTICAL.
SO, I SET UP CAMP IN THAT AREA AND JUST WAITED FOR A CAR TO COME BY.
AND SURE ENOUGH, A CAR CAME BY, AND YOU COULD NOT SEE ANY LIGH FROM THE HEADLIGHTS AT ALL.
WE ALSO TRIED TO DEBUNK THE MIS WITH FLASHLIGHTS, AND THEY WERE NOT FLASHLIGHTS.
THEY WERE NOT ANYTHING THAT WE COULD COME UP WITH.
SO, I STARTED TO BELIEVE THEN THAT IT WAS SUPERNATURAL.
Krawcyzk: THERE'S SPECULATION THAT THERE'S A SPIRI WHO LIKES TO GUARD THE HOUSE, AND YOU MOSTLY SEE HIM UPSTAIRS ON THE SECOND FLOOR.
Boyd: ONE OF OUR INVESTIGATORS -- SHE WAS UP THERE BY HERSELF, AND SHE GO THIS REALLY CREEPY FEELING THAT SHE WAS BEING WATCHED.
AND SHE DID NOT LIKE IT, SO, SHE STARTED TAKING PICTURES.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
AND AT THE END OF THE HALL, THERE WAS A SEVEN-FOOT, DARK SHADOW MAN STARING AT HER.
Krawcyzk: IT'S A PRETTY TALL FIGURE, AND IT'S CREEPY.
Boyd: WHEN I SAW THAT PICTURE, I SAID TO MYSELF, "I AM NOT GOING ON THAT FLOOR.
I DO NO WANT TO ENCOUNTER THIS GUY.
" WE THINK THE SHADOW MAN IS THE GUARDIAN OF THE HOUSE.
WE DON'T KNOW WHERE HE'S FROM OR MUCH ABOUT HIM, BUT YOU COULD TELL HE'S DEFINITELY MORE OF A TERRITORIAL SPIRIT.
HE'S JUST SCARY.
Krawcyzk: AFTER ALL THAT WAS HAPPENING, WE WANTED TO CONTINUE INVESTIGATING.
Boyd: WE WERE HAVING AN EVP SESSION IN THE LIVING ROOM, AND WE HAD THE MEL METER SET UP.
Krawcyzk: THE MEL METER MEASURES FLUCTUATIONS IN EMF AND TEMPERATURE AND ALSO HAS A DEVICE AT THE END THAT CREATES A MAGNETIC FIELD.
AND IF ANYTHING DISRUPTS IT, IT BEEPS.
[ MEL METER BEEPS .]
Boyd: AND AS WE WERE ASKING QUESTIONS TRYING TO GET EVPs, THEY STARTED ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS THROUGH THE MEL METER.
[ MEL METER WARBLING .]
[ MEL METER BEEPING .]
Krawcyzk: ONCE THE MEL METER WENT OFF ONCE, WE ASKED IF THEY COULD DO IT AGAIN.
[ MEL METER BEEPS .]
AND THERE IT WENT.
IT WENT OFF AGAIN.
IT WAS VERY INTELLIGEN AND VERY RESPONSIVE TO WHAT WE WERE ASKING.
Boyd: EVERYBODY WAS IN SHOCK.
THE MEL METER NEVER GOES OFF, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, WE'RE HAVING A FULL CONVERSATION.
I THINK IT WAS ONE OF THE CHILDREN TRYING TO COME THROUGH ON THE MEL METER.
THE CHILDREN ARE SAID TO LIKE TO MESS AROUND AND PLAY WITH EQUIPMENT, SO I THINK THEY WERE JUST HAVING FUN.
IT'S THE MOST UNEXPLAINABLE THING I HAVE EVER SEEN.
[ MEL METER BEEPS .]
[ CHUCKLES .]
Krawcyzk: THIS WAS BY FAR THE MOST EVIDENCE THAT WE'VE EVER CAUGH IN A LOCATION, AND IT'S COMPLETELY CHANGED MY WHOLE OPINION ON THE PARANORMAL.
I WAS ORIGINALLY A SKEPTIC, BUT NOW IT HAS REALLY OPENED ME UP TO BELIEVING THAT THE PARANORMAL DOES EXIST.
AND THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT IT -- THE PLACE IS HAUNTED.
Boyd: IT'S LIKE A MIX OF SPIRITS.
IT'S LIKE SOME ARE DARK AND SOME ARE NICE.
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF WHO COMES OUT THAT NIGHT.
WHOEVER THINKS THAT GHOSTS AREN'T REAL OR THAT THIS IS ALL A LIE, SERIOUSLY, GO TO THE FUNERAL HOME AND INVESTIGATE THERE YOURSELF.
AND I GUARANTEE YOU, YOU WILL BECOME A BELIEVER.
Bethune: WE WERE WARNED NOT TO GO IN THERE.
Power: THIS IS THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY JUMPED.
Bethune: THIS IS THEIR SHIP.
I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW IT.
Bethune: WE WERE WARNED NOT TO GO IN THERE.
Power: THIS IS THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY JUMPED.
Bethune: I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW IT.
Bethune: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I VISITED THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY IN BREMERTON, WASHINGTON.
THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY IS A 418-FOOT SHIP THAT WAS BUILT IN 1957 IN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, AND IT WAS ACTUALLY LAUNCHED IN 1959.
AND IN 1960, IT BEGAN ITS COMMISSION WITH ABOUT 332 SAILORS ON BOARD.
AND ITS JOB WAS TO BE A FLAGSHIP FOR TWO SQUADRONS WHICH SERVED IN CALIFORNIA, GUAM, AND PEARL HARBOR.
DURING THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY'S SERVICE, THERE WAS A GUN-MOUNT ACCIDEN WHERE THREE SAILORS WERE KILLED.
[ EXPLOSION .]
TWO OF THEM WERE KILLED INSTANTLY.
ONE OF THE GUN-MOUNT OFFICERS WAS CRITICALLY INJURED AND DID NOT SURVIVE.
IN ANOTHER INCIDENT, THERE WAS A PILOT WHO HAD CRASHED HIS PLANE.
[ AIRPLANE ENGINE BUZZES .]
[ EXPLOSION .]
HE DID NOT SURVIVE, SO ONE OF THE SMALLER BOATS WAS SENT FROM THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY TO RETRIEVE HIS BODY.
UNFORTUNATELY, THERE WAS ONLY PIECES OF HIS BODY LEFT, AND THOSE WERE BROUGHT BACK AND STORED IN THE REFRIGERATOR.
THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY WAS RETIRED IN 1980 AND IN 1988 BECAME A NAVAL MEMORIAL, AND CURRENTLY, IT IS A FLOATING NAVY MUSEUM IN BREMERTON, WASHINGTON.
I VISITED THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY AND TOOK THE TOUR, AND BEING SENSITIVE, I COULD DEFINITELY FEEL THAT THERE WERE SPIRITS THERE.
SO, I REALLY WANTED TO PUSH FOR AN INVESTIGATION THERE.
Power: MARY -- SHE'S THE CASE MANAGER OF OUR TEAM.
SHE'S THE ONE WHO ACTUALLY SETS UP ALL OF OUR INVESTIGATIONS.
Bethune: I'VE KNOWN SCOT FOR ABOUT FIVE YEARS, AND WE MET IN THE PARANORMAL TEAM IN WASHINGTON STATE.
WALKING ONTO THE SHIP, I FEL DEFINITELY A LOT OF ENERGY.
Power: THE FIRST THING WE ALWAYS DO IS WALK THROUGH THE WHOLE SHIP, KIND OF GET AN IDEA OF SOME OF THE HOT SPOTS.
THOSE ARE THE AREAS WHERE YOU KIND OF GET THAT FEELING ON THE BACK OF YOUR NECK LIKE YOU FEEL THE HAIR STANDING UP.
AND THEN WE TRY TO FIND A GOOD PLACE TO SET UP OUR EQUIPMENT.
Bethune: WE DECIDED TO SET UP OUR COMMAND CENTER AT THE OFFICERS' GALLEY.
Power: AFTER WE GO ALL THE EQUIPMENT SET UP DURING OUR INVESTIGATION THAT NIGHT, I WAS KIND OF JOKING AROUND.
"HEY, OFFICER ON DECK.
" I ACTUALLY HEARD SOMEBODY SAY SOMETHING, BUT I COULDN'T MAKE OU WHAT IT WAS THAT THEY SAID.
AND SO, WE WENT BACK AND REVIEWED THE AUDIO AFTERWARDS, AND THEN WE ACTUALLY HEARD WHAT IT SAID.
IT SAID, "MAKE IT MESH.
" WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? I DON'T KNOW.
BUT AT LEAST IT WAS IN DIRECT RESPONSE TO MY COMMEN WHEN I WALKED IN AND SAID, "HEY, OFFICER ON DECK.
" Bethune: LATER THAT NIGHT, WE WERE IN THE COMMAND CENTER, AND WE WERE TALKING ABOU THE DIFFERENT UNIFORMS.
SO, I SAID, "WELL, YOU KNOW ME.
I LOVE A MAN IN A UNIFORM," WHICH I DO.
WE CAUGHT AN EVP AT THE END OF WHEN I SAID THA THAT SAID, "TOUCH ME.
" I WAS STARTLED.
I BELIEVE IT WAS ONE OF THE SAILORS THAT IS STILL ON THE SHIP.
Power: THEN LATER ON, WE WERE ACTUALLY DOING A GHOST BOX SESSION, AND WE WERE ASKING I A BUNCH OF QUESTIONS.
AND ONE OF THE RESPONSES WE GOT BACK -- AND IT WAS REALLY CLEAR -- IT SAYS, "THIS ISN'T YOUR SHIP.
" Bethune: I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I HEARD.
I IMMEDIATELY FEL PUT IN MY PLACE, AND IT WAS A LITTLE SCARY BECAUSE YOU COULD TELL THESE GUYS ARE STILL THERE.
THIS IS THEIR SHIP.
Power: THE FACT THAT IT'S SAYING, "THIS ISN'T YOUR SHIP" MEANS THAT, YES, THEY ARE ACTUALLY THERE, AND THEY'RE ACTUALLY PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT WE'RE DOING.
Bethune: AFTER THIS COMMENT, I DID FEEL A LITTLE THREATENED.
SO, WE DECIDED TO GO DOWN TO THE ENGINE ROOM.
AND I WAS A LITTLE SCARED BECAUSE THE STEPS ARE ACTUALLY STRAIGHT DOWN.
SCOTT WENT AHEAD AND SET UP HIS EQUIPMENT, AND HE WAS TAKING NUMEROUS PHOTOGRAPHS OF DIFFERENT SPOTS IN THE ENGINE ROOM.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
HE DID CATCH A SCARY-LOOKING PHOTOGRAPH OF A MAN'S FACE LOOKING BACK TOWARDS US.
Power: IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT'S WATCHING ME BUT JUST NO LETTING ITS PRESENCE KNOWN.
WHICH IS KIND OF WHAT YOU FEEL LIKE WHEN YOU'RE ON THAT SHIP.
IT'S KIND OF LIKE YOU FEEL LIKE SOMEBODY'S WATCHING YOU, AND THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT THEY'RE WATCHING YOU.
Bethune: THE FACE HAD A LOOK OF, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE" -- LIKE A SCOWL.
I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW IT.
Power: AFTER THAT, WE WENT OVER TO THE REFRIGERATOR.
Bethune: THE REFRIGERATOR IS WHERE THEY WOULD KEEP THE BODIES OF THE SAILORS WHO WERE KILLED ON THE SHIP.
Power: IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY COLD DOWN THERE, WHICH IS KIND OF STRANGE BECAUSE THE REFRIGERATOR'S NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL.
SO, IT SHOULDN'T BE COLD DOWN THERE.
Bethune: SCOTT AND I WERE TALKING ABOU HOW WE WERE GOING TO SET UP THE INVESTIGATION.
WHEN SCOTT SAYS, "I WANT TO GO INTO THE REFRIGERATOR," YOU HEAR THIS, "SHH!" Power: AND I HEARD IT AGAIN -- "SHH!" -- IN MY EAR.
IT KIND OF WAS A LITTLE BIT INTIMIDATING.
IT WAS LIKE, "SHH! HEY, BUDDY, GET OUT OF THE WAY.
" IT WAS KIND OF SCARY.
Bethune: IT WAS KIND OF LIKE, "BE QUIET.
YOU'RE NOT GOING INTO THE REFRIGERATOR.
" Power: I'M A GUY THAT DOESN'T NORMALLY JUMP AT AN INVESTIGATION, AND THIS IS THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY JUMPED.
Bethune: SCOTT JUMPED BACK A COUPLE OF FEET IMMEDIATELY AND SAID, "WHAT WAS THAT?" Power: YOU GET THE GOOSE BUMPS ON YOUR ARMS AND YOU GET THE HAIR STANDING UP.
THE ADRENALINE'S RUNNING 'CAUSE, "OKAY, SOMEBODY'S INTERACTING WITH ME.
" TO HAVE THAT INTERACTION REALLY KIND OF PUTS YOU MORE ON EDGE.
Bethune: AFTER SCOTT AND I HEARD THE "SHH," HE BEGAN TAKING A SERIES OF PHOTOGRAPHS WITH HIS FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERA.
Power: I WAS JUST HOPING I'D CATCH SOMETHING, AND I DID.
Bethune: HE GOT THIS OUTLINE OF A LARGE MAN.
Power: WHEN I LOOKED AT THE PICTURE, I REALLY FELT THAT IT COULD BE THE PILOT THEY PICKED UP.
AND THEY ACTUALLY STORED HIS BODY INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR.
MAYBE IT'S THE FAC THAT IT LOOKS SO BIG.
MAYBE HE WAS STILL WEARING HIS FLIGHT JACKET.
I DON'T KNOW.
Bethune: WHEN I SAW THAT PICTURE, I THOUGHT, "I HOPE THIS SPIRI DOES NOT GET MAD.
" WE WERE WARNED WITH THE "SHH" NOT TO GO IN THERE.
AND WE WERE THERE.
IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING AND SCARY.
Power: IN THE SAME AREA OF THE FRIDGE THAT THIS WHOLE INCIDEN HAPPENED, WE SHOT SOME VIDEO, AND WE ACTUALLY GOT A WEIRD ANOMALY.
IT'S ACTUALLY IN THE BACK OF THE FRIDGE, BUT YOU CAN SEE IT FROM THE CENTER AREA OF THE DOORWAY MOVING TOWARDS THE LEFT.
Bethune: WHEN I SAW THE VIDEO, I GOT GOOSE BUMPS, AND THE HAIR ON THE BACK OF MY NECK WHEN STRAIGHT UP.
I THINK IT MEANS THA THE SPIRITS IN THE REFRIGERATOR DO NOT WANT TO BE DISTURBED.
I THOUGH THAT IT WAS THE SAME SPIRI THAT WE CAUGH IN THE PHOTOGRAPH AND THE SAME SPIRI THAT SAID, "SHH!" IT WAS AMAZING.
IT REALLY WAS.
THE EXPERIENCE WITH THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY WAS VERY PROFOUND.
IT WAS A LITTLE SCARY TO HAVE THE EXPERIENCES I DID WITH THE SPIRITS ON THE SHIP.
I THINK THE SPIRITS ARE STILL THERE BECAUSE OF THE EXPERIENCE WE HAD, BECAUSE OF ALL THE DIFFEREN VOICES THAT WE RECEIVED AND ALL THE DIFFERENT COMMUNICATIONS.
Power: I THINK THE SPIRITS OF THE SAILORS ARE STILL AROUND BECAUSE THAT WAS THE PART OF THEIR LIFE THAT THEY REALLY CONNECTED WITH.
SO, THAT'S WHERE THEY PLAN TO SPEND THE RES OF THEIR ETERNITY.
Brigati: I'M HEARING FOOTSTEPS.
AND SHE POINTS RIGHT OVER HERE.
IT WAS RIGHT ABOVE MY HEAD.
Hayes: AND I HAD SNAPPED A COUPLE PICTURES.
AND IN THESE PICTURES, IT LOOKED LIKE STILL FRAMES OF A BLACK MASS MOVING FROM THE LEFT SIDE TO THE RIGHT SIDE.
Brigati: THAT'S USUALLY A PRETTY BAD SIGN OF SOMETHING NEGATIVE.
Brigati: ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU HEAR A MAN'S VOICE GO, "NO!" AND THE FAN IN THE CORNER TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF.
Hayes: I WAS SCARED OF EVERYTHING BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S THERE.
Hayes: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN IN A HAUNTED HOME IN THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA.
WHEN YOU WALK IN THE GATE, THE GARAGE AND THE GAME ROOM IS SEPARATE FROM THE HOUSE.
THE GAME ROOM IS THE ONLY UNFINISHED ROOM IN THE HOUSE.
IT'S THE HANGOUT ROOM FOR THE OLDER KIDS.
AT FIRST, I DIDN'T PICK UP ON ANYTHING KIND OF CREEPY, BUT THE ENERGY SEEMED KIND OF OFF.
THERE WAS SOMETHING JUST LINGERING THERE.
MY FRIEND DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT THE HOUSE WAS HAUNTED.
THE HOUSE WAS A LITTLE BIT EERIE TO HER, BUT THERE WAS NO ACTUAL ACTIVITY IN THE HOUSE.
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS THAT HAPPENED IN THE ROOM WAS THE MUSIC WOULD CHANGE BY ITSELF.
IT WOULD GET REALLY LOUD OR REALLY LOW OR STOP.
[ STATIC CRACKLES .]
I'VE HAD THE FEELING OF A NINE-VOLT BATTERY ON MY SKIN.
AND THEN THE ROOM WOULD GET, LIKE, A COLD BREEZE WHEN THERE'S NO WINDOWS IN THERE.
THE MORE TIME YOU SPEN IN THERE, THE MORE THINGS WOULD HAPPEN AND GOT MORE SERIOUS.
AT FIRST, MY FRIENDS AND I -- WE WOULD HANG OUT IN THAT ROOM.
AND WE'D JUST TAKE PICTURES JUST TO TAKE PICTURES.
AND WHEN WE'D LOOK AT THEM, WE STARTED TO NOTICE WEIRD THINGS IN THEM.
SO, WE STARTED TO TAKE MORE.
I HAD NOTICED THAT THERE WERE PECULIAR THINGS IN THE PICTURE.
THE FACE WAS VERY DISTINCT.
HE HAD DARK, SUNKEN EYES AND KIND OF SCRAGGLY, LONGISH HAIR.
AFTER WE HAD CONTINUED TO TAKE PICTURES A COUPLE TIMES, WE HAD GOTTEN THE SAME FACE IN MORE THAN ONE PHOTOGRAPH.
IT WAS REALLY ASTONISHING AND KIND OF MADE ME NOT WANT TO GO INTO THE GAME ROOM ANYMORE.
IF IT WAS JUST A SPIRI PASSING THROUGH, IT WOULDN'T BE AS SCARY.
BUT THE FACT THAT THE SAME MAN WAS THERE IN EVERY PICTURE AND WE KNEW IT RESIDED IN THAT ROOM IS WHAT SCARED ME.
I WAS DEFINITELY SCARED FOR A COUPLE DAYS AFTER THAT HAD HAPPENED.
ONE NIGHT, I VISITED THE GAME ROOM.
I HAD OPENED THE GAME-ROOM DOOR, AND I SAW A BLACK FIGURE STANDING THERE.
IT ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED ME.
MY FIRST REACTION WAS TO SLAM THE DOOR AND RUN IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.
THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAD EVER ACTUALLY SEEN HIM.
ONCE I HAD LEFT, I WAS SCARED.
I WAS CONFUSED.
THE SPIRI IS NOW SHOWING HIMSELF TO ME.
HE'S NOW ACTIVELY IN THIS ROOM, ACTIVELY IN OUR PHOTOGRAPHS, AND WE STILL DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HIM.
AT FIRST, STEFAN JUST CAME OVER JUST TO HANG OU BECAUSE HE WAS A MUTUAL FRIEND, BUT AFTER HE HAD STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THA ROOM, HE DECIDED TO INVESTIGATE.
Brigati: I'VE BEEN INVESTIGATING THE PARANORMAL FOR ABOUT 21 YEARS NOW.
MADISON MENTIONED THAT SHE FEELS LIKE SOMEONE'S, LIKE, CREEPING UP ON HER, AND SHE TURNS AROUND AND THERE'S NOBODY THERE, SEEING THINGS OUT OF THE CORNER OF HER EYE, LIKE PEOPLE WALKING BY THE OPEN DOORWAY.
SHE'S HEARING FOOTSTEPS ABOVE WHILE THEY'RE IN THERE PLAYING AROUND AND SOUNDS OF BOXES BEING DRAGGED ACROSS THE TOP.
I'M JUS SITTING THERE LISTENING, AND SURE ENOUGH, I'M HEARING A COUPLE OF FOOTSTEPS.
AND SHE POINTS RIGHT OVER HERE.
IT'S RIGHT ABOVE MY HEAD.
SO, WE PULLED THE STAIRS DOWN AND GO UP THERE TO SEE WHAT COULD BE MAKING THAT NOISE.
THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING UP THERE THAT COULD BE MAKING THAT NOISE.
AS SOON AS WE WALK AWAY, WE HEAR MORE WALKING RIGHT ABOVE OUR HEADS.
[ THUNK .]
AFTER HEARING A LOT OF THE ACTIVITY, I DECIDED WE'RE GONNA DO SOME MORE INVESTIGATING TO SEE IF WE CAN NARROW DOWN WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON IN THE HOUSE.
WE GOT THIS NEW ITC UNI WE'RE TRYING OUT.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, I'M HI WITH THIS CHARGE OF ELECTRICITY.
[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING .]
Hayes: HE HAD A SIMILAR FEELING OF THE NINE-VOLT BATTERY ON YOUR SKIN.
Brigati: WHEN SHE WAS TELLING US ABOUT THE EXPERIENCES SHE WAS HAVING AND THEN WE WERE THERE TO VALIDATE THAT FACT, I THINK IT WAS MORE A PRESSURE OFF HER BECAUSE WE'RE EXPERIENCING IT NOW, TOO.
AFTER WE STARTED SEEING SO MUCH ACTIVITY GOING ON, I REALIZED THEY MIGHT BE IN THERE TRYING TO PROVOKE THINGS, TRYING TO STIR STUFF UP.
Hayes: AND HE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE ATTIC WAS THE HOT SPOT IN THE ROOM BECAUSE IT WAS THE QUIETES PLACE IN THE ROOM WHERE THERE WASN'T PEOPLE.
Brigati: SO, WE'RE FILMING AND TAKING PICTURES AND STUFF.
Hayes: I WAS SITTING ON THE COUCH IN THE CORNER, AND ONE OF MY FRIENDS WAS SITTING IN THE MIDDLE ON THE FUTON THAT WAS LAID DOWN.
AND I HAD SNAPPED A COUPLE PICTURES.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
AND IN THESE PICTURES, IT LOOKED LIKE STILL FRAMES OF A BLACK MASS MOVING FROM THE LEFT SIDE TO THE RIGHT SIDE.
WITHIN THIS BLACK MASS, YOU CAN SEE A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT ORBS, AND YOU COULD TELL THAT THE BLACK MASS WAS A THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJEC BECAUSE IT WAS IN FRONT OF THE LADDER AND IT WAS BEHIND THE LADDER, AS WELL.
Brigati: SHE CAUGHT THAT IMAGE, AND THAT'S USUALLY A PRETTY BAD SIGN OF SOMETHING NEGATIVE.
YOU COULD START FEELING THE ENERGY IN THE ROOM CHANGING.
THE FRESH AIR WAS GETTING THICKER AND DENSER AGAIN.
IT'S GETTING STALE AGAIN.
Hayes: THE FAC THAT WE HAD GOTTEN A PICTURE OF SUCH A BIG, NEGATIVE MASS LED ME TO BELIEVE THAT I WAS IN A ROOM WITH SOMETHING THAT COULD HARM ME IF IT WANTED TO.
AND I FELT KIND OF LUCKY THAT IT HADN'T GOTTEN VIOLENT.
AFTER A LOT OF ACTIVITY WAS IN THE GAME ROOM, WE SPENT LESS TIME IN THERE, AND WE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THINGS WERE COMING INTO THE HOUSE.
Brigati: AND THEY WERE FILMING THINGS JUMPING OFF THE COUCH.
YOU SEE THINGS MOVING HERE AND THERE.
AND WE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE FEELING THAT WE HAD HAD IN THE GAME ROOM WAS NOW IN THE HOUSE.
Brigati: SO, A COUPLE DAYS LATER, THE HOMEOWNER AND A COUPLE OF THE KIDS WERE FILMING, AND THE HOMEOWNER GOES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU HEAR MAN'S VOICE GO, "NO!" GET OUT! AND THEN THE FAN IN THE CORNER TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF.
THERE'S NOBODY OVER THERE.
IT'S NOT JUST A LOOSE SOCKE OR NOTHING.
YOU HAVE TO TURN THE KNOB PRETTY HARD TO GET IT TO TURN ON, AND IT TURNS ON FULL POWER.
Hayes: AFTER EXPERIENCING EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE, IT WAS GAME OVER FOR ME.
I COULDN'T BE IN THAT ROOM ANYMORE.
AFTER STEFAN HAD INVESTIGATED AND TOLD US TO NOT INTERACT WITH IT AS MUCH, THE ACTIVITY HAS BECOME MORE SPACED OUT, BUT IT'S STILL THERE.
Brigati: SOME OF THE PHOTOS THAT WE'RE TAKING [ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
I WAS COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY BY WHAT I WAS SEEING.
I'M CONVINCED THAT THEY NEED TO BACK OFF THIS THING.
IT'S BECOMING NEGATIVE.
IT'S THREATENING.
IT'S NOT GOING IN A GOOD DIRECTION.
IT'S GETTING WORSE.
Hayes: I'VE BEGAN TO TELL MYSELF THAT I'M THE ONE WITH A HEARTBEAT.
THIS IS MY HOUSE.
THIS IS MY TIME ON THIS EARTH.
BUT I'D BE WILLING TO COEXIST AS LONG AS IT DIDN'T TURN VIOLENT.
Epperley: WE KNOW IT'S NOT A PERSON.
I'M 100% CONVINCED THAT THE SHADOW IN THE VIDEO WAS AN ACTUAL SPIRIT.
Boyd: I HEAR TYLER SAY, "THE DOOR!" IT'S THE MOST UNEXPLAINABLE THING I'VE EVER SEEN.
Krawcyzk: THERE'S NO DOUB ABOUT IT.
THE PLACE IS HAUNTED.
Bethune: HE DID CATCH A PHOTOGRAPH OF A MAN'S FACE LOOKING BACK TOWARDS US.
Power: IT WAS ALMOST LIKE IT WAS WATCHING ME BUT JUST NOT LETTING ITS PRESENCE KNOWN.
Bethune: I BELIEVE IT WAS ONE OF THE SAILORS THAT IS STILL ON THE SHIP.
Brigati: YOU HEAR A MAN'S VOICE GO, "NO!" AND THE FAN IN THE CORNER TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF.
Hayes: IT ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED ME.
Davis: YOU SEE A SHADOW BEHIND HIS HEAD.
HE ACTUALLY CAUGHT IT ON FILM.
WE WEREN'T SURE WHAT WE WERE GETTING INTO.
Andersen: WHEN I WALK IN, YOU CAN TELL PEOPLE HAVE PASSED AWAY IN THERE.
Epperley: HE SAYS, "RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
" Andersen: WHEN I SEEN THAT, I WAS JUST LIKE [GASPS.]
I WALKED OUT OF THE FRONT DOOR, LOCKED THE HOSPITAL, AND I DIDN'T COME BACK FOR LIKE FIVE DAYS.
Andersen: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I OPENED A HAUNTED-HOUSE ATTRACTION.
THE NAME OF THE HAUNTED ATTRACTION THAT I RUN IS CALLED ASYLUM 49.
IT'S AN OLD HOSPITAL, SO WE WANTED TO ASSOCIATE I WITH A CRAZY HOUSE, SOMETHING THAT KIND OF HAS A SCARY, EERIE SOUND TO IT.
"49" CAME UP BECAUSE IT WAS THE YEAR THAT THE HOSPITAL STARTED CONSTRUCTION.
SO, WE DECIDED TO GO WITH ASYLUM 49.
WHEN I WALK IN, I KIND OF REFER TO IT AS BEING STEPHEN KING-ISH.
YOU CAN TELL PEOPLE HAVE PASSED AWAY IN THERE, SO YOU GE A REALLY EERIE FEELING.
I ONLY HAD ABOUT A MONTH TO PREPARE FOR THE HAUNTED HOUSE TO PUT IT UP.
AND SO, I SPENT A LOT OF NIGHTS THERE UNTIL 2:00, 3:00 IN THE MORNING JUST DECORATING FOR THE HAUNTED HOUSE.
I HAD DECIDED I NEEDED TO HAVE A MAZE-LIKE SETTING IN THERE, SO I TOOK THE CURTAINS, AND I PUT THEM IN THE HALLWAY.
I PLACED THEM SO WHEN PEOPLE WALKED THROUGH THE HALLWAY, THEY WOULD HAVE A PATH TO FOLLOW.
AND WHEN I FINISHED HANGING THE LAST CURTAIN, I WENT BACK, AND I SHUT ALL THE CURTAINS.
I WALKED DOWN THE FIRST HALLWAY, AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE.
THE MAZE WENT THROUGH GREAT.
I WALKED BACK INTO THE HOSPITAL FROM THE BACK SIDE, OPENED THE DOOR TO GO DOWN THE SECOND HALLWAY, AND ALL THE CURTAINS WERE OPEN.
AND I WAS LIKE, "WHAT THE HECK?" I THOUGHT SOMEBODY WAS PLAYING A TRICK ON ME, BUT IT WAS 3:00 AT NIGHT.
THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND.
I WALKED OUT OF THE FRONT DOOR, LOCKED THE HOSPITAL, AND I DIDN'T COME BACK FOR LIKE FIVE DAYS.
Epperley: I ACTUALLY VOLUNTEERED AT THE HOSPITAL ABOUT SIX OR SEVEN YEARS AGO AS AN ACTOR.
AND THEN I WAS BROUGHT IN AS A MANAGER AND THEN BOUGHT IN ON THE THIRD YEAR AS AN OWNER.
KIMM IS MY BEST FRIEND, AND WE JUST WORK REALLY WELL TOGETHER.
WHAT WE DO IS WE GO THROUGH AND WE OPEN UP THE HAUNTED ATTRACTION.
MY PARTNER KIMM WILL WALK THROUGH AND LET THE ACTORS KNOW, "HEY, WE'RE OPENING THE DOORS IN FIVE MINUTES.
BE READY.
" Andersen: AND I WENT INTO A ROOM THAT WE HAD THIS LITTLE VASE PROPPED UPON A TABLE, AND ALL THE FLOWERS WERE ON THE FLOOR.
AND I KIND OF TALKED TO THE KIDS.
I SAID, "LISTEN, YOU KNOW, I ASKED YOU GUYS, PLEASE, DON'T MESS WITH THE PROPS.
" THEY WERE LIKE, "WE DIDN'T DO THAT.
WE DIDN'T TAKE THEM OUT.
THEY CAME OUT ON THEIR OWN.
" AND SO, I PICKED THEM ALL UP OFF THE FLOOR AND PUT THEM IN THE VASE.
AND I THOUGHT, "OH, I'M GONNA CATCH THEM IN THE ACT.
" SO, I GO BACK OUT OF THE ROOM, AND I WENT BACK BEHIND AND SNUCK BACK IN.
I PEEK AROUND THE CORNER JUST IN TIME TO SEE THE FLOWER POP OUT OF THE VASE.
[ WHISTLES .]
Epperley: AT THE TIME WE DIDN' HAVE TIME TO THINK, YOU KNOW, "IS THIS PARANORMAL? WHAT'S HAPPENING?" WE JUST STUFFED THE FLOWERS BACK IN THE VASE AND TRIED TO CONVINCE THE ACTORS THEY NEEDED TO GO ON AND MOVED ON.
Andersen: IT REALLY FREAKED ME OUT.
I MEAN, THIS WAS MY BUSINESS, AND SO I HAD TO BE THERE ON A DAILY BASIS AND DEAL WITH IT.
SO, I DECIDED TO HIT IT HEAD ON AND FIND OU WHAT WAS REALLY AROUND ME.
I STARTED DOING SOME INVESTIGATIONS IN THE HOSPITAL.
Epperley: WE USED K-II METERS, EVP RECORDERS, NIGHT VISION, INFRARED CAMERAS, STILL PHOTOGRAPHY, ALL KINDS OF EQUIPMEN TO GATHER PARANORMAL EVIDENCE.
Andersen: ONE NIGHT, I STARTED DOING THE WALK-THROUGH AND I GOT THROUGH THE MAZE.
SO, I WALKED INTO THE NEXT ROOM, AND ALL MY CAS FROM ALL THOSE ROOMS WERE HUDDLED IN THE NURSES' STATION.
AND I ASKED, "WHAT ARE YOU GUYS DOING? THERE'S PEOPLE COMING INTO THE HOSPITAL.
" THEY SAID, "NO.
"WE'RE NOT WORKING HERE TONIGHT.
THERE'S NO WAY.
" AND I SAID, "WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?" THEY SAID, "THERE'S A GHOST OF A LITTLE GIRL OUT IN THE HALLWAY.
"WE'RE NOT GONNA GO WORK.
WE'RE TOO AFRAID.
" AND I SAID, "WELL, YOU GUYS ARE CRAZY.
" I GET OUT INTO THE HALLWAY, AND I LOOK OUT THERE, AND STANDING IN PATIENT ROOM TWO IS THE SPIRIT OF A LITTLE GIRL.
SHE STOOD ABOU MAYBE 4 1/2 FEET TALL.
SHE HAD LONG, BLACK HAIR.
THE ODDER THING WAS I COULD HEAR HER.
SHE HAD HER HANDS OVER HER EYES LIKE THIS, AND SHE WAS CRYING, "IT'S NOT FAIR.
IT'S NOT FAIR.
" AND THEN THIS BLACK MIS JUST KIND OF DRIFTED UNDERNEATH THE BEDS.
Epperley: MY DAUGHTER IS ONE OF OUR TOUR GUIDES, AND SHE WAS GOING THROUGH WITH SOME OF HER FRIENDS ONE NIGHT TAKING SOME PICTURES.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
SHE SNAPPED SOME PHOTOS AND SHE GOT HOME AND SHE SHOWS ME.
"MY GOSH, DAD, LOOK A THIS PICTURE IN THIS WINDOW.
" AND THERE'S, LO AND BEHOLD, THIS YOUNG LADY SITTING ON THE FLOOR WITH A DRESS SPREAD OU OVER HER LEGS.
WE SHOWED THE PICTURE TO KIMM, AND HE SAID, YOU KNOW, "THAT'S THE GIRL THAT I HAD THE CONVERSATION WITH.
" Andersen: WHEN I LOOKED AT THE PHOTO, IT WAS EXACTLY WHAT I SAW.
SHE HAD THE LONG BLACK HAIR, EXCEPT FOR IN THE PHOTO SHE'S ACTUALLY SITTING DOWN.
IT REALLY KIND OF AT FIRS JUST STARTLED ME.
I'VE BEEN TAUGHT MY WHOLE LIFE THAT GHOSTS DON'T EXIST, AND NOW I'VE SEEN IT AND HAVE SOME EVIDENCE TO BACK IT UP.
WE DON'T KNOW WHO THE LITTLE SPIRIT GIRL IS, BUT FOR WHATEVER REASON, SHE FEELS COMFORTABLE ENOUGH THERE, AND I THINK THAT SHE LIKES THA WE'RE DOING THE HAUNTED HOUSE AND ALL THE OTHER KIDS ARE THERE HAVING FUN.
AND SHE JUST WANTS TO BE A PART OF THAT, AND SHE FEELS SAFE THERE.
SOON AFTER THAT, I WAS GIVING A TOUR OF THE HOSPITAL.
I TURNED TO COME OU OF THE CONFERENCE ROOM.
Epperley: HE HAD ABOUT 10 OR 15 PEOPLE, AND HE'S TALKING AND HE STOPS MID-SENTENCE AND MAKES EYE CONTACT WITH ME.
AND HE SAYS, "RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
" Andersen: AS I CAME OU OF THE CONFERENCE ROOM, I LOOKED DOWN THE HALLWAY, AND I THOUGH I'D SEEN THIS SHADOW STARTING TO WALK BACK TO THE DOORWAY.
[ WIND RUSHING .]
IT'S AT THIS MOMEN THAT I REALIZED, "THIS IS REAL.
" Epperley: I CAUGHT I OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE, AND WHEN I TURNED AROUND, THEN IT WAS GONE.
IT WAS QUITE A DRAMATIC, INTENSE EXPERIENCE FOR EVERYONE THERE THAT EVENING.
AFTER THE TOUR WAS OVER, CURIOSITY GOT THE BEST OF ME.
I WENT TO THE CAMERAS, AND I REWOUND THE VIDEO.
RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME ON THE VIDEO OFF TO THE RIGHT OF THE SCREEN, YOU SEE THE SHADOW MANIFEST, AND THEN HE STARTS TO WALK ACROSS THE HALLWAY.
Epperley: YOU CAN SEE THE OUTLINE OF FEET AND LEGS AND HANDS AND ARMS AND THE HEAD.
YOU COULD SEE ALL THA THROUGH THE SHADOW.
SO, WE KNOW IT'S NOT A PERSON.
Andersen: I DON'T KNOW IF WE STARTLED HIM OR IF HE WAS JUST TURNING, BUT HE TURNS TOWARDS THE CAMERA.
AND AS SOON AS HE SEES US, HE STARTS TO WALK BACK OFF INTO THE DOORWAY.
WHEN I SEEN THAT, I WAS JUST LIKE [GASPS.]
I THINK THAT WAS THE TURNING POINT FOR ME.
Epperley: I'M 100% CONVINCED THAT THE SHADOW IN THE VIDEO WAS AN ACTUAL SPIRIT.
A FEW WEEKS LATER, WE WERE IN THE X-RAY ROOM.
WE HAD A GENTLEMEN CONTACT US AND WANTED TO COME THERE AND DO A PARANORMAL INVESTIGATION.
AND HE HAD A CAMERA THAT HE WAS TRYING TO DEVELOP A FILTER THAT WOULD CATCH A GHOST SHADOW PICTURE -- YOU KNOW, A SHADOW ENTITY.
HE SAID, "WHY DON'T YOU STEP OVER IN FRONT OF THE X-RAY TABLE THERE.
" HE SNAPS THREE PHOTOS, AND THEN HE LOOKS AT THE CAMERA TO REVIEW IT.
AND HE'S LIKE, "HOLY COW.
YOU GOT TO SEE THIS.
" SO, I WALK OVER AND I LOOK, AND STANDING BETWEEN WHERE I WAS SITTING AND WHERE HE TOOK THE PICTURE WAS A FULL-FORM SHADOW WALKING THIS WAY TO ME.
Andersen: IT WAS REALLY COOL.
YOU COULD ACTUALLY SEE IT LOOKED LIKE A HOSPITAL SMOCK THAT HE WAS WEARING.
IT HAD THE BIG COLLAR WITH THE POCKET AND THE LONGER FRONT.
AND SO, WE STARTED TO DO SOME INVESTIGATING AND DID AN EVP SESSION IN THERE.
AND WE ASKED FOR THEM TO TELL US THEIR NAME.
Epperley: AND WE GOT A FIRS AND LAST NAME.
THE EVP SAID, "PETER HANSFORD.
" Andersen: ONE OF THE NURSES THAT HAD BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE RECALLED PETER HANSFORD WORKING THERE AS A VOLUNTEER AS A RADIOLOGIST, WHICH GOES ALONG WITH EVERYTHING WE THOUGHT.
IT LOOKED LIKE HE HAD A LITTLE SMOCK ON.
IT WAS IN THE X-RAY ROOM.
IT DIDN'T GET MUCH BETTER THAN THAT.
Epperley: I'M 100% CONVINCED THAT PETER HANSFORD IS THE SPIRI THAT'S IN THE PHOTOGRAPH WITH ME BECAUSE WE'VE ACTUALLY ASKED HIM AND GOT AN AFFIRMATIVE RESPONSE THAT IT WAS PETER.
Andersen: YEAH, I BELIEVE WITHOUT A DOUB THAT THAT WAS PETER HANSFORD AND HE WAS JUST IN THERE TO TELL US HE'S STILL HERE.
IF SOMEBODY HAD TOLD ME THE HOSPITAL WAS HAUNTED, I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY TOLD THEM THEY WERE CRAZY.
"GHOSTS DON'T EXIST.
THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS HAUNTINGS.
" IT'S JUST AN OLD HOSPITAL.
THIS EXPERIENCE HAS PROBABLY BEEN ONE OF THE BIGGEST LIFE-CHANGING EXPERIENCES THAT I HAVE HAD.
Epperley: AFTER SEEING ALL THE EVIDENCE THAT WE'VE GATHERED AT THE HOSPITAL -- THE PHOTOS, THE VIDEOS, EVPs, AND PERSONAL EXPERIENCES -- I AM 100% CONVINCED THAT THE HOSPITAL IS HAUNTED.
Andersen: I DIDN'T BELIEVE IN THE PARANORMAL BEFORE.
I SURE DO NOW.
Hodgson: THERE WAS FACES IN THE WINDOW.
Davis: IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE LOOKING FROM THE INSIDE OUTWARD AT US.
Hodgson: THERE'S ONE ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SNAKES IN THE HAIR.
Davis: AT THAT POINT, IT HIT ME THAT OBVIOUSLY WE'RE NOT WELCOME.
Hodgson: THERE WAS FACES IN THE WINDOW.
ONE ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SNAKES IN THE HAIR.
Davis: THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THERE WITH US.
Hodgson: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I EXPERIENCED MY FIRST GHOST HUN AT THE OLD BLACKFORD COUNTY HOSPITAL.
THE OWNER'S DAUGHTER HAD CONTACTED US, TELLING US OF THINGS THAT HAD TAKEN PLACE THERE.
THERE WERE NUMEROUS NOISES [ WIND HOWLS .]
THIS BEING MY VERY FIRS INVESTIGATION, I WAS REALLY EXCITED.
I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO EXPECT.
I KNEW OF A VETERAN INVESTIGATOR, ADAM DAVIS.
I ASKED HIM TO COME ALONG WITH US TO THIS INVESTIGATION.
Davis: THE OUTSIDE OF THE BUILDING IS NOT REALLY ANYTHING DIFFEREN THAN YOU WOULD EXPEC AN OLD HOSPITAL TO LOOK LIKE.
IT WASN'T REAL WELL-MAINTAINED.
IT WAS ABANDONED.
Hodgson: WHEN I FIRST ARRIVED, I TOOK SOME PICTURES OF THE BUILDING.
I WALKED AROUND.
SOME OF THE PICTURES, THERE WAS FACES IN THE WINDOW.
I HANDED THE CAMERA TO ADAM.
Davis: IT WAS LIKE THEY WERE LOOKING FROM THE INSIDE OUTWARD AT US.
SHE SAID, "THAT'S THE EXAC SAME THING THAT I WAS THINKING.
" Hodgson: THERE'S ONE THAT ALMOST LOOKS LIKE IT HAS SNAKES IN THE HAIR THAT'S LIKE RIGHT IN THE VERY CENTER OF THE PICTURE.
AND THE ONE ON THE LEFT SIDE, UNDERNEATH THE EYES YOU CAN SEE HOW THE NOSE COMES OUT.
IT'S A LOT LONGER THAN NORMAL.
ON THE RIGHT SIDE, THERE'S ONE THAT LOOKS ALMOS LIKE A DEVIL'S FACE.
[ GROWLING .]
Davis: AFTER SEEING THAT PHOTO, WE WEREN'T SURE WHAT WE WERE GETTING INTO.
Hodgson: AS I WALKED INTO THE HOSPITAL, I NOTICED THAT THE WALLS, THE FLOOR, AND THE CEILING WAS SWEATING.
[ WATER TRICKLING .]
IT HADN'T RAINED, SO WHERE THAT WATER WAS COMING FROM I HAD NO IDEA.
Davis: YOU COULD TOUCH IT, AND YOUR HAND WOULD BE WET.
TO SEE THAT MUCH WATER IN A PLACE THAT DOESN'T HAVE WATER DOESN'T ADD UP.
Hodgson: THE OWNER'S DAUGHTER WAS GIVING US A WALK-THROUGH OF THE BUILDING.
AS WE WENT FROM ROOM TO ROOM, WE DID SEE THE SHADOWS ALONG THE WALLS.
YOU WOULD SEE THEM TURN THE CORNER, AND JUST AS YOU WERE GETTING TO IT, YOU WOULD SEE THEM JUST EVERYWHERE IN EVERY ROOM OF THE BUILDING.
WHEN I WAS AT THE END OF THE HALLWAY, I HAD A FEELING OF DREAD LIKE SOMETHING REALLY BAD WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN.
[ HISSING .]
WE WENT INTO THE LAUNDRY ROOM.
THERE WAS ACTUALLY TWO PHOTOS TAKEN OF THE WASHER AND DRIER.
I TOOK ONE OF THE PICTURES, AND ANOTHER INVESTIGATOR TOOK ANOTHER PICTURE.
THEY WERE THREE SECONDS APART.
Davis: JENN'S PHOTO REVEALED A VERY CLEAR PICTURE OF A NURSE'S HEAD IN THE WINDOW OF THE WASHING MACHINE.
Hodgson: YOU COULD SEE THE SILHOUETTE OF HER FACE.
YOU COULD SEE THE HAT.
I MEAN, IT WAS CRYSTAL CLEAR.
Davis: I THINK THA IS A SPIRIT OF A NURSE THAT WORKED IN THE HOSPITAL OR HAD A HISTORY WITH THAT HOSPITAL.
AT ONE POINT, WE WALKED INTO THE CHAPEL OF THE HOSPITAL.
WE HAD GONE IN THERE TO DO AN EVP SESSION.
WE WERE ALL STANDING AROUND, AND THEN I STARTED TO FEEL AS IF I HAD SOME COBWEBS OR I'D WALKED INTO COBWEBS.
SO, I STARTED TO KIND OF KNOCK THEM -- BRUSH THEM OFF MY HAIR.
JENN LOOKS AT ME AND SAYS, "WHAT'S GOING ON? WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" I SAID, "WELL, I WALKED INTO SOME COBWEBS.
" AND SHE TELLS ME, "YOU REALIZE WE HAVEN'T MOVED IN FOUR OR FIVE MINUTES.
" AT THAT POINT, IT HIT ME THAT THERE WASH SOMETHING IN THERE WITH US.
Hodgson: WE SET UP CAMERAS IN A LOT OF THE ROOMS AND A LOT OF THE HALLWAYS.
ONE HALLWAY IN PARTICULAR YOU ALWAYS FELT LIKE SOMETHING WAS WATCHING YOU AND SOMETHING WAS FOLLOWING YOU.
IT WAS ALWAYS JUST RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
YOU WOULD LOOK AND THERE WOULD BE NOTHING THERE.
Davis: WHEN WE WATCH THE VIDEO BACK, YOU SEE THIS LIGH COME SHOOTING DOWN THE HALLWAY, AND IT'S FOLLOWING US.
IT COULD HAVE BEEN A SPIRI OF SOMEONE THAT HAD WORKED IN THE HOSPITAL, MAYBE A CHILD.
WE COULD FEEL THAT THERE WERE THINGS AROUND, BUT TO SEE THAT LIGHT SHOO STRAIGHT DOWN THAT HALLWAY, FOLLOWING US CLOSELY -- I REALLY WASN'T EXPECTING THAT.
Hodgson: ONE OF THE PIECES OF EVIDENCE THAT WE GO WAS IN THE KITCHEN.
I ASKED THE QUESTION, "DO YOU WANT US TO LEAVE?" Davis: WHEN WE LISTENED BACK TO THE AUDIO, WE VERY PLAINLY HEARD, "GET OUT.
" WHATEVER WAS THERE DID NOT LIKE US BEING THERE, AND IT DID NOT WANT US TO COME BACK.
I STILL DIDN'T WANT TO LEAVE.
I WAS STILL CURIOUS, BUT I WAS CAUTIOUS THAT SOMETHING BAD COULD HAPPEN BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY, WE'RE NOT WELCOME.
AFTER THAT, WE HEADED UP TO THE SECOND FLOOR, AND WE WERE SITTING IN A ROOM DOING AN EVP SESSION.
IT WAS VERY CLEAR THA SOMETHING HAD ENTERED THE ROOM THAT WAS NOT IN HUMAN FORM.
[ HISSING .]
THE TEMPERATURE CHANGED.
THE AIR ITSELF, THE ATMOSPHERE JUST GOT HEAVY.
IT GOT A LITTLE BI HARDER TO BREATHE.
AND ONE OF OUR INVESTIGATORS IS SITTING, AND YOU SEE A SHADOW ACTUALLY MOVE BEHIND HIS HEAD.
SEVERAL OF US IN THE ROOM SAW IT, BUT WHA WAS EVEN MORE MIND-BLOWING WAS THAT WE ACTUALLY CAUGHT IT ON FILM.
Hodgson: WE WERE SHOCKED.
WE PLAYED THAT BACK NUMEROUS TIMES BECAUSE WE WERE JUST IN AWE OF WHAT WAS THERE.
Davis: THAT WAS THE MOS INCREDIBLE THING THAT I'VE EVER SEEN.
Hodgson: AT THE END OF THE EVENING, WE TRULY WANTED TO GO TO THE BASEMENT.
[ HISSING .]
IN THE BASEMEN IS WHERE THE MORGUE IS.
Davis: EVERY TIME THAT ANYONE HAD EVER TRIED TO INVESTIGATE THE BASEMENT, IT HAD BEEN FLOODED.
Hodgson: THERE WAS NO RHYME OR REASON FOR THAT TO BE FLOODED.
Davis: WHATEVER IS THERE WOULD GO TO ANY LENGTH TO KEEP YOU OUT.
Hodgson: IT'S JUST CREEPY.
Davis: THE DAY BEFORE WE WERE COMING, THE OWNERS OF THE BUILDING ACTUALLY HAD THE WATER PUMPED OUT.
WHEN YOU STAR TO WALK DOWN THE BASEMENT, IT GETS VERY HEAVY, ALMOST LIKE YOU'VE GOT PRESSURE ON YOUR CHEST.
AND IT'S HARD TO TAKE A DEEP BREATH.
IT'S A VERY ODD SENSATION.
AND IT'S NOT LIKE ANYTHING THAT I'VE EVER FELT BEFORE.
AFTER FEELING THOSE STRONG FEELINGS, WE DECIDED IT WAS A GOOD TIME TO NOT PRESS OUR LUCK AND GET OUT WHILE WE COULD.
Hodgson: I REALLY BELIEVE WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL THAT THERE'S SOMETHING THAT'S EVIL IN THAT BASEMEN THAT DOESN'T WANT ANYONE IN THERE.
Davis: I'VE BEEN ON ABOUT 40 TO 50 OTHER INVESTIGATIONS.
THE ACTIVITY THAT HAPPENS AT THE OLD BLACKFORD COUNTY HOSPITAL IS UNLIKE ANY OTHER PLACE THAT I HAVE BEEN.
Hodgson: I WOULD CHALLENGE ANY INVESTIGATOR TO TAKE A CHANCE AND GO INTO THIS HOSPITAL.
IF THEY'RE NOT A BELIEVER IN THE PARANORMAL, THIS PLACE WILL MAKE THEM A BELIEVER.
[ HISSING .]
Boyd: I SPRINTED DOWN THOSE STAIRS.
WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
IT WAS THE CREEPIEST THING IN MY LIFE.
WE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
Boyd: I SPRINTED DOWN THOSE STAIRS.
WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
WE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
Boyd: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I VISITED AN OLD FUNERAL HOME IN JOLIET, ILLINOIS.
I'VE BEEN INVESTIGATING THE PARANORMAL FOR ABOUT A YEAR NOW WITH MY FRIEND TYLER.
Krawcyzk: JOE AND I WENT ON ABOUT 20 INVESTIGATIONS BEFORE WE WEN TO THE FUNERAL HOME, SO WE HAVE A PRETTY GOOD AMOUN OF EXPERIENCE.
WE HEARD ABOUT THIS LOCATION BECAUSE OF ITS RICH HISTORY, AND A LOT OF PEOPLE DIED IN THE HOUSE.
Boyd: THE FUNERAL HOME WAS BUIL IN 1902 BY A.
C.
CLEMENT, WHO WAS A PROMINENT BUSINESSMAN IN JOLIET.
AND HIS WIFE DIED IN THE BUILDING, AND HE ALSO DIED THERE.
AND THEN HIS KIDS TOOK THE FUNERAL HOME AND SOLD IT TO THE AYOLAS, WHO TURNED IT INTO A REST HAVEN HOME FOR CHILDREN.
IT WAS SHUT DOWN 10 YEARS LATER BY THE STATE BECAUSE THERE WAS ALLEGED ABUSE AND NEGLECT AND DEATHS THERE.
Krawcyzk: AND THEN IT TURNED INTO THE BLACKBURN FUNERAL HOME FOR 20 YEARS UNTIL IT TURNED INTO RESIDENCY, AND NOW IT'S A HOUSE.
Boyd: LEGEND HAS IT THA THE CLEMENTS DO HAUNT THE PLACE.
A.
C.
IS BELIEVED TO BE ONE OF THE MAIN SPIRITS THERE.
Krawcyzk: SPIRITS OF CHILDREN ARE ALSO KNOWN TO LINGER AROUND THE AREA.
Boyd: THERE ARE ALSO MANY DARKER SPIRITS THAT ARE SUPPOSEDLY FROM THE REST HAVEN HOME THAT PROTECT THE PLACE AND DO NOT WANT ANYBODY IN THERE.
Krawcyzk: AS WE ARRIVED ON THE SCENE, IT WAS REALLY CREEPY.
Boyd: IT WAS LIKE AN OLD VICTORIAN HOUSE, AND IT JUST LOOKS LIKE YOUR CLASSIC HAUNTED HOUSE.
ON INVESTIGATIONS, ME AND TYLER USUALLY START OFF WITH A WALK-THROUGH.
DURING THE INITIAL WALK-THROUGH IN THE ATTIC, I DID NOT HAVE A GOOD FEELING.
AND WHEN WE WERE THROUGH IN THE ATTIC, WE WERE HEADING DOWN THE STAIRS, AND I ACTUALLY HEARD FOOTSTEPS BEHIND MINE.
I HEAR FOOTSTEPS.
[ SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY .]
I SPRINTED DOWN THOSE STAIRS.
THE FEELING WE GOT WAS THA IT'S GONNA BE AN ACTIVE NIGHT.
Krawcyzk: AFTER OUR WALK-THROUGH, THE FIRST PLACE WE INVESTIGATED WAS THE BASEMENT, WHICH WAS THE FORMER MORGUE WHEN IT WAS THE FUNERAL HOME.
Boyd: WE SET UP A FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERA ON A TRIPOD IN FRONT OF THE ONLY DOOR LEADING TO THE BASEMENT.
AND THE CAMERA WAS FACING US.
THINGS WERE KIND OF SLOW, AND WERE WERE ALL, LIKE, HAD HEADACHES.
AND IT WAS A VERY DARK FEELING DOWN THERE.
THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN, I HEAR TYLER SAY, "THE DOOR! THE DOOR!" Krawcyzk: AND EVERYONE WAS JUS KIND OF SITTING THERE IN AWE JUST WATCHING THE DOOR CLOSE.
AND IT HAD ENOUGH FORCE TO MOVE THE TRIPOD OUT OF THE WAY.
[ SCRAPING .]
[ SCRAPING .]
Boyd: WE WERE ALL TERRIFIED.
IT WAS THE CREEPIEST THING IN MY LIFE.
Krawcyzk: AFTER FREAKING OUT, WE KIND OF WENT THROUGH THE WHOLE THING AND TRIED DEBUNKING IT.
IT WAS A PRETTY HEAVY DOOR, AND ONCE YOU SET IT UP SO WHERE IT'S COMPLETELY OPEN, IT DOESN'T SHUT.
Boyd: IT WAS IN A BASEMENT.
THERE WAS NO WIND, NO WINDOWS.
WE WERE ALL STARING AT IT.
IT WAS NOT ONE OF US.
MY REACTION WHEN THE DOOR CLOSED WAS, "GET ME THE HELL OUT OF THERE.
" ON OUR INVESTIGATIONS, THE GEAR WE USUALLY USE ARE NIGHT-VISION CAMERAS, FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERAS, MEL METERS, OVILUS.
I MEAN, WE PRETTY MUCH HAVE EVERYTHING.
AN OVILUS IS A DEVICE WHICH HAS A WORD DATABASE OF 2,000 WORDS.
SPIRITS CAN SELECT THOSE WORDS BASED ON THE DIFFEREN EMF FIELDS THEY GIVE OFF.
IN THE BASEMENT, WHEN WE STARTED USING THE OVILUS, THE OVILUS WAS SPITTING OU SOME NASTY WORDS.
Krawcyzk: WHEN I HEARD "SATAN" ON THE OVILUS, EVERYONE KIND OF GASPED.
IT WAS REALLY CREEPY.
I WAS REALLY CREEPED OU BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, THAT'S SOMETHING YOU DON' WANT TO MESS WITH -- SATAN.
I REALLY HAVE NO CLUE WHAT I WAS THAT SAID "SATAN.
" IT COULD HAVE BEEN A DARK SPIRIT.
IT COULD HAVE BEEN JUST SOMEONE TRYING TO SCARE US OUT OF THE BASEMENT.
Boyd: I WAS NOT EXPECTING THIS FROM THIS LOCATION.
WE WERE DRAINED AND WE WERE ALL CREEPED OU AND WE NEEDED TO GET OUT OF THERE.
Krawcyzk: WHEN WE GOT UPSTAIRS, WE WERE IN THE LIVING ROOM, AND WE DECIDED TO SET UP FOR AN EVP SESSION.
Boyd: TYLER WAS SETTING UP HIS CAMERAS, AND WE WERE HOPING TO CATCH SOMETHING.
SO, TYLER HAD THE CAMERA POINTED TOWARDS THE DOOR THAT LEADS UPSTAIRS.
Krawcyzk: I WAS LOOKING AT MY LCD SCREEN, AND AS SOON AS I LOOK UP, I SAW THIS MIST GO BY THE SCREEN.
[ HISSING .]
Boyd: HE WAS LIKE, "GUYS, YOU GOT TO COME CHECK THIS OUT.
" SO, WE ALL RUSHED OVER THERE, AND HE PLAYED IT BACK ON HIS LCD.
THERE IT WAS -- A MIST.
Krawcyzk: THE FIRST REACTION WAS EVERYONE THOUGH IT WAS HEADLIGHTS.
EVERYONE THOUGHT IT WAS MAYBE SOMEONE'S FLASHLIGHT.
Boyd: WHEN I FIRST SAW IT, I WAS SKEPTICAL.
SO, I SET UP CAMP IN THAT AREA AND JUST WAITED FOR A CAR TO COME BY.
AND SURE ENOUGH, A CAR CAME BY, AND YOU COULD NOT SEE ANY LIGH FROM THE HEADLIGHTS AT ALL.
WE ALSO TRIED TO DEBUNK THE MIS WITH FLASHLIGHTS, AND THEY WERE NOT FLASHLIGHTS.
THEY WERE NOT ANYTHING THAT WE COULD COME UP WITH.
SO, I STARTED TO BELIEVE THEN THAT IT WAS SUPERNATURAL.
Krawcyzk: THERE'S SPECULATION THAT THERE'S A SPIRI WHO LIKES TO GUARD THE HOUSE, AND YOU MOSTLY SEE HIM UPSTAIRS ON THE SECOND FLOOR.
Boyd: ONE OF OUR INVESTIGATORS -- SHE WAS UP THERE BY HERSELF, AND SHE GO THIS REALLY CREEPY FEELING THAT SHE WAS BEING WATCHED.
AND SHE DID NOT LIKE IT, SO, SHE STARTED TAKING PICTURES.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
AND AT THE END OF THE HALL, THERE WAS A SEVEN-FOOT, DARK SHADOW MAN STARING AT HER.
Krawcyzk: IT'S A PRETTY TALL FIGURE, AND IT'S CREEPY.
Boyd: WHEN I SAW THAT PICTURE, I SAID TO MYSELF, "I AM NOT GOING ON THAT FLOOR.
I DO NO WANT TO ENCOUNTER THIS GUY.
" WE THINK THE SHADOW MAN IS THE GUARDIAN OF THE HOUSE.
WE DON'T KNOW WHERE HE'S FROM OR MUCH ABOUT HIM, BUT YOU COULD TELL HE'S DEFINITELY MORE OF A TERRITORIAL SPIRIT.
HE'S JUST SCARY.
Krawcyzk: AFTER ALL THAT WAS HAPPENING, WE WANTED TO CONTINUE INVESTIGATING.
Boyd: WE WERE HAVING AN EVP SESSION IN THE LIVING ROOM, AND WE HAD THE MEL METER SET UP.
Krawcyzk: THE MEL METER MEASURES FLUCTUATIONS IN EMF AND TEMPERATURE AND ALSO HAS A DEVICE AT THE END THAT CREATES A MAGNETIC FIELD.
AND IF ANYTHING DISRUPTS IT, IT BEEPS.
[ MEL METER BEEPS .]
Boyd: AND AS WE WERE ASKING QUESTIONS TRYING TO GET EVPs, THEY STARTED ANSWERING THE QUESTIONS THROUGH THE MEL METER.
[ MEL METER WARBLING .]
[ MEL METER BEEPING .]
Krawcyzk: ONCE THE MEL METER WENT OFF ONCE, WE ASKED IF THEY COULD DO IT AGAIN.
[ MEL METER BEEPS .]
AND THERE IT WENT.
IT WENT OFF AGAIN.
IT WAS VERY INTELLIGEN AND VERY RESPONSIVE TO WHAT WE WERE ASKING.
Boyd: EVERYBODY WAS IN SHOCK.
THE MEL METER NEVER GOES OFF, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, WE'RE HAVING A FULL CONVERSATION.
I THINK IT WAS ONE OF THE CHILDREN TRYING TO COME THROUGH ON THE MEL METER.
THE CHILDREN ARE SAID TO LIKE TO MESS AROUND AND PLAY WITH EQUIPMENT, SO I THINK THEY WERE JUST HAVING FUN.
IT'S THE MOST UNEXPLAINABLE THING I HAVE EVER SEEN.
[ MEL METER BEEPS .]
[ CHUCKLES .]
Krawcyzk: THIS WAS BY FAR THE MOST EVIDENCE THAT WE'VE EVER CAUGH IN A LOCATION, AND IT'S COMPLETELY CHANGED MY WHOLE OPINION ON THE PARANORMAL.
I WAS ORIGINALLY A SKEPTIC, BUT NOW IT HAS REALLY OPENED ME UP TO BELIEVING THAT THE PARANORMAL DOES EXIST.
AND THERE'S NO DOUBT ABOUT IT -- THE PLACE IS HAUNTED.
Boyd: IT'S LIKE A MIX OF SPIRITS.
IT'S LIKE SOME ARE DARK AND SOME ARE NICE.
IT'S JUST A MATTER OF WHO COMES OUT THAT NIGHT.
WHOEVER THINKS THAT GHOSTS AREN'T REAL OR THAT THIS IS ALL A LIE, SERIOUSLY, GO TO THE FUNERAL HOME AND INVESTIGATE THERE YOURSELF.
AND I GUARANTEE YOU, YOU WILL BECOME A BELIEVER.
Bethune: WE WERE WARNED NOT TO GO IN THERE.
Power: THIS IS THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY JUMPED.
Bethune: THIS IS THEIR SHIP.
I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW IT.
Bethune: WE WERE WARNED NOT TO GO IN THERE.
Power: THIS IS THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY JUMPED.
Bethune: I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW IT.
Bethune: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN WHEN I VISITED THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY IN BREMERTON, WASHINGTON.
THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY IS A 418-FOOT SHIP THAT WAS BUILT IN 1957 IN SEATTLE, WASHINGTON, AND IT WAS ACTUALLY LAUNCHED IN 1959.
AND IN 1960, IT BEGAN ITS COMMISSION WITH ABOUT 332 SAILORS ON BOARD.
AND ITS JOB WAS TO BE A FLAGSHIP FOR TWO SQUADRONS WHICH SERVED IN CALIFORNIA, GUAM, AND PEARL HARBOR.
DURING THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY'S SERVICE, THERE WAS A GUN-MOUNT ACCIDEN WHERE THREE SAILORS WERE KILLED.
[ EXPLOSION .]
TWO OF THEM WERE KILLED INSTANTLY.
ONE OF THE GUN-MOUNT OFFICERS WAS CRITICALLY INJURED AND DID NOT SURVIVE.
IN ANOTHER INCIDENT, THERE WAS A PILOT WHO HAD CRASHED HIS PLANE.
[ AIRPLANE ENGINE BUZZES .]
[ EXPLOSION .]
HE DID NOT SURVIVE, SO ONE OF THE SMALLER BOATS WAS SENT FROM THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY TO RETRIEVE HIS BODY.
UNFORTUNATELY, THERE WAS ONLY PIECES OF HIS BODY LEFT, AND THOSE WERE BROUGHT BACK AND STORED IN THE REFRIGERATOR.
THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY WAS RETIRED IN 1980 AND IN 1988 BECAME A NAVAL MEMORIAL, AND CURRENTLY, IT IS A FLOATING NAVY MUSEUM IN BREMERTON, WASHINGTON.
I VISITED THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY AND TOOK THE TOUR, AND BEING SENSITIVE, I COULD DEFINITELY FEEL THAT THERE WERE SPIRITS THERE.
SO, I REALLY WANTED TO PUSH FOR AN INVESTIGATION THERE.
Power: MARY -- SHE'S THE CASE MANAGER OF OUR TEAM.
SHE'S THE ONE WHO ACTUALLY SETS UP ALL OF OUR INVESTIGATIONS.
Bethune: I'VE KNOWN SCOT FOR ABOUT FIVE YEARS, AND WE MET IN THE PARANORMAL TEAM IN WASHINGTON STATE.
WALKING ONTO THE SHIP, I FEL DEFINITELY A LOT OF ENERGY.
Power: THE FIRST THING WE ALWAYS DO IS WALK THROUGH THE WHOLE SHIP, KIND OF GET AN IDEA OF SOME OF THE HOT SPOTS.
THOSE ARE THE AREAS WHERE YOU KIND OF GET THAT FEELING ON THE BACK OF YOUR NECK LIKE YOU FEEL THE HAIR STANDING UP.
AND THEN WE TRY TO FIND A GOOD PLACE TO SET UP OUR EQUIPMENT.
Bethune: WE DECIDED TO SET UP OUR COMMAND CENTER AT THE OFFICERS' GALLEY.
Power: AFTER WE GO ALL THE EQUIPMENT SET UP DURING OUR INVESTIGATION THAT NIGHT, I WAS KIND OF JOKING AROUND.
"HEY, OFFICER ON DECK.
" I ACTUALLY HEARD SOMEBODY SAY SOMETHING, BUT I COULDN'T MAKE OU WHAT IT WAS THAT THEY SAID.
AND SO, WE WENT BACK AND REVIEWED THE AUDIO AFTERWARDS, AND THEN WE ACTUALLY HEARD WHAT IT SAID.
IT SAID, "MAKE IT MESH.
" WHAT DOES THAT MEAN? I DON'T KNOW.
BUT AT LEAST IT WAS IN DIRECT RESPONSE TO MY COMMEN WHEN I WALKED IN AND SAID, "HEY, OFFICER ON DECK.
" Bethune: LATER THAT NIGHT, WE WERE IN THE COMMAND CENTER, AND WE WERE TALKING ABOU THE DIFFERENT UNIFORMS.
SO, I SAID, "WELL, YOU KNOW ME.
I LOVE A MAN IN A UNIFORM," WHICH I DO.
WE CAUGHT AN EVP AT THE END OF WHEN I SAID THA THAT SAID, "TOUCH ME.
" I WAS STARTLED.
I BELIEVE IT WAS ONE OF THE SAILORS THAT IS STILL ON THE SHIP.
Power: THEN LATER ON, WE WERE ACTUALLY DOING A GHOST BOX SESSION, AND WE WERE ASKING I A BUNCH OF QUESTIONS.
AND ONE OF THE RESPONSES WE GOT BACK -- AND IT WAS REALLY CLEAR -- IT SAYS, "THIS ISN'T YOUR SHIP.
" Bethune: I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I HEARD.
I IMMEDIATELY FEL PUT IN MY PLACE, AND IT WAS A LITTLE SCARY BECAUSE YOU COULD TELL THESE GUYS ARE STILL THERE.
THIS IS THEIR SHIP.
Power: THE FACT THAT IT'S SAYING, "THIS ISN'T YOUR SHIP" MEANS THAT, YES, THEY ARE ACTUALLY THERE, AND THEY'RE ACTUALLY PAYING ATTENTION TO WHAT WE'RE DOING.
Bethune: AFTER THIS COMMENT, I DID FEEL A LITTLE THREATENED.
SO, WE DECIDED TO GO DOWN TO THE ENGINE ROOM.
AND I WAS A LITTLE SCARED BECAUSE THE STEPS ARE ACTUALLY STRAIGHT DOWN.
SCOTT WENT AHEAD AND SET UP HIS EQUIPMENT, AND HE WAS TAKING NUMEROUS PHOTOGRAPHS OF DIFFERENT SPOTS IN THE ENGINE ROOM.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
HE DID CATCH A SCARY-LOOKING PHOTOGRAPH OF A MAN'S FACE LOOKING BACK TOWARDS US.
Power: IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT'S WATCHING ME BUT JUST NO LETTING ITS PRESENCE KNOWN.
WHICH IS KIND OF WHAT YOU FEEL LIKE WHEN YOU'RE ON THAT SHIP.
IT'S KIND OF LIKE YOU FEEL LIKE SOMEBODY'S WATCHING YOU, AND THEY DON'T WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT THEY'RE WATCHING YOU.
Bethune: THE FACE HAD A LOOK OF, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE" -- LIKE A SCOWL.
I WAS SHOCKED WHEN I SAW IT.
Power: AFTER THAT, WE WENT OVER TO THE REFRIGERATOR.
Bethune: THE REFRIGERATOR IS WHERE THEY WOULD KEEP THE BODIES OF THE SAILORS WHO WERE KILLED ON THE SHIP.
Power: IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY COLD DOWN THERE, WHICH IS KIND OF STRANGE BECAUSE THE REFRIGERATOR'S NO LONGER FUNCTIONAL.
SO, IT SHOULDN'T BE COLD DOWN THERE.
Bethune: SCOTT AND I WERE TALKING ABOU HOW WE WERE GOING TO SET UP THE INVESTIGATION.
WHEN SCOTT SAYS, "I WANT TO GO INTO THE REFRIGERATOR," YOU HEAR THIS, "SHH!" Power: AND I HEARD IT AGAIN -- "SHH!" -- IN MY EAR.
IT KIND OF WAS A LITTLE BIT INTIMIDATING.
IT WAS LIKE, "SHH! HEY, BUDDY, GET OUT OF THE WAY.
" IT WAS KIND OF SCARY.
Bethune: IT WAS KIND OF LIKE, "BE QUIET.
YOU'RE NOT GOING INTO THE REFRIGERATOR.
" Power: I'M A GUY THAT DOESN'T NORMALLY JUMP AT AN INVESTIGATION, AND THIS IS THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY JUMPED.
Bethune: SCOTT JUMPED BACK A COUPLE OF FEET IMMEDIATELY AND SAID, "WHAT WAS THAT?" Power: YOU GET THE GOOSE BUMPS ON YOUR ARMS AND YOU GET THE HAIR STANDING UP.
THE ADRENALINE'S RUNNING 'CAUSE, "OKAY, SOMEBODY'S INTERACTING WITH ME.
" TO HAVE THAT INTERACTION REALLY KIND OF PUTS YOU MORE ON EDGE.
Bethune: AFTER SCOTT AND I HEARD THE "SHH," HE BEGAN TAKING A SERIES OF PHOTOGRAPHS WITH HIS FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERA.
Power: I WAS JUST HOPING I'D CATCH SOMETHING, AND I DID.
Bethune: HE GOT THIS OUTLINE OF A LARGE MAN.
Power: WHEN I LOOKED AT THE PICTURE, I REALLY FELT THAT IT COULD BE THE PILOT THEY PICKED UP.
AND THEY ACTUALLY STORED HIS BODY INSIDE THE REFRIGERATOR.
MAYBE IT'S THE FAC THAT IT LOOKS SO BIG.
MAYBE HE WAS STILL WEARING HIS FLIGHT JACKET.
I DON'T KNOW.
Bethune: WHEN I SAW THAT PICTURE, I THOUGHT, "I HOPE THIS SPIRI DOES NOT GET MAD.
" WE WERE WARNED WITH THE "SHH" NOT TO GO IN THERE.
AND WE WERE THERE.
IT WAS VERY FRIGHTENING AND SCARY.
Power: IN THE SAME AREA OF THE FRIDGE THAT THIS WHOLE INCIDEN HAPPENED, WE SHOT SOME VIDEO, AND WE ACTUALLY GOT A WEIRD ANOMALY.
IT'S ACTUALLY IN THE BACK OF THE FRIDGE, BUT YOU CAN SEE IT FROM THE CENTER AREA OF THE DOORWAY MOVING TOWARDS THE LEFT.
Bethune: WHEN I SAW THE VIDEO, I GOT GOOSE BUMPS, AND THE HAIR ON THE BACK OF MY NECK WHEN STRAIGHT UP.
I THINK IT MEANS THA THE SPIRITS IN THE REFRIGERATOR DO NOT WANT TO BE DISTURBED.
I THOUGH THAT IT WAS THE SAME SPIRI THAT WE CAUGH IN THE PHOTOGRAPH AND THE SAME SPIRI THAT SAID, "SHH!" IT WAS AMAZING.
IT REALLY WAS.
THE EXPERIENCE WITH THE U.
S.
S.
TURNER JOY WAS VERY PROFOUND.
IT WAS A LITTLE SCARY TO HAVE THE EXPERIENCES I DID WITH THE SPIRITS ON THE SHIP.
I THINK THE SPIRITS ARE STILL THERE BECAUSE OF THE EXPERIENCE WE HAD, BECAUSE OF ALL THE DIFFEREN VOICES THAT WE RECEIVED AND ALL THE DIFFERENT COMMUNICATIONS.
Power: I THINK THE SPIRITS OF THE SAILORS ARE STILL AROUND BECAUSE THAT WAS THE PART OF THEIR LIFE THAT THEY REALLY CONNECTED WITH.
SO, THAT'S WHERE THEY PLAN TO SPEND THE RES OF THEIR ETERNITY.
Brigati: I'M HEARING FOOTSTEPS.
AND SHE POINTS RIGHT OVER HERE.
IT WAS RIGHT ABOVE MY HEAD.
Hayes: AND I HAD SNAPPED A COUPLE PICTURES.
AND IN THESE PICTURES, IT LOOKED LIKE STILL FRAMES OF A BLACK MASS MOVING FROM THE LEFT SIDE TO THE RIGHT SIDE.
Brigati: THAT'S USUALLY A PRETTY BAD SIGN OF SOMETHING NEGATIVE.
Brigati: ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU HEAR A MAN'S VOICE GO, "NO!" AND THE FAN IN THE CORNER TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF.
Hayes: I WAS SCARED OF EVERYTHING BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S THERE.
Hayes: MY GHOST STORY BEGAN IN A HAUNTED HOME IN THOUSAND OAKS, CALIFORNIA.
WHEN YOU WALK IN THE GATE, THE GARAGE AND THE GAME ROOM IS SEPARATE FROM THE HOUSE.
THE GAME ROOM IS THE ONLY UNFINISHED ROOM IN THE HOUSE.
IT'S THE HANGOUT ROOM FOR THE OLDER KIDS.
AT FIRST, I DIDN'T PICK UP ON ANYTHING KIND OF CREEPY, BUT THE ENERGY SEEMED KIND OF OFF.
THERE WAS SOMETHING JUST LINGERING THERE.
MY FRIEND DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THAT THE HOUSE WAS HAUNTED.
THE HOUSE WAS A LITTLE BIT EERIE TO HER, BUT THERE WAS NO ACTUAL ACTIVITY IN THE HOUSE.
ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS THAT HAPPENED IN THE ROOM WAS THE MUSIC WOULD CHANGE BY ITSELF.
IT WOULD GET REALLY LOUD OR REALLY LOW OR STOP.
[ STATIC CRACKLES .]
I'VE HAD THE FEELING OF A NINE-VOLT BATTERY ON MY SKIN.
AND THEN THE ROOM WOULD GET, LIKE, A COLD BREEZE WHEN THERE'S NO WINDOWS IN THERE.
THE MORE TIME YOU SPEN IN THERE, THE MORE THINGS WOULD HAPPEN AND GOT MORE SERIOUS.
AT FIRST, MY FRIENDS AND I -- WE WOULD HANG OUT IN THAT ROOM.
AND WE'D JUST TAKE PICTURES JUST TO TAKE PICTURES.
AND WHEN WE'D LOOK AT THEM, WE STARTED TO NOTICE WEIRD THINGS IN THEM.
SO, WE STARTED TO TAKE MORE.
I HAD NOTICED THAT THERE WERE PECULIAR THINGS IN THE PICTURE.
THE FACE WAS VERY DISTINCT.
HE HAD DARK, SUNKEN EYES AND KIND OF SCRAGGLY, LONGISH HAIR.
AFTER WE HAD CONTINUED TO TAKE PICTURES A COUPLE TIMES, WE HAD GOTTEN THE SAME FACE IN MORE THAN ONE PHOTOGRAPH.
IT WAS REALLY ASTONISHING AND KIND OF MADE ME NOT WANT TO GO INTO THE GAME ROOM ANYMORE.
IF IT WAS JUST A SPIRI PASSING THROUGH, IT WOULDN'T BE AS SCARY.
BUT THE FACT THAT THE SAME MAN WAS THERE IN EVERY PICTURE AND WE KNEW IT RESIDED IN THAT ROOM IS WHAT SCARED ME.
I WAS DEFINITELY SCARED FOR A COUPLE DAYS AFTER THAT HAD HAPPENED.
ONE NIGHT, I VISITED THE GAME ROOM.
I HAD OPENED THE GAME-ROOM DOOR, AND I SAW A BLACK FIGURE STANDING THERE.
IT ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED ME.
MY FIRST REACTION WAS TO SLAM THE DOOR AND RUN IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION.
THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME I HAD EVER ACTUALLY SEEN HIM.
ONCE I HAD LEFT, I WAS SCARED.
I WAS CONFUSED.
THE SPIRI IS NOW SHOWING HIMSELF TO ME.
HE'S NOW ACTIVELY IN THIS ROOM, ACTIVELY IN OUR PHOTOGRAPHS, AND WE STILL DON'T KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT HIM.
AT FIRST, STEFAN JUST CAME OVER JUST TO HANG OU BECAUSE HE WAS A MUTUAL FRIEND, BUT AFTER HE HAD STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING IN THA ROOM, HE DECIDED TO INVESTIGATE.
Brigati: I'VE BEEN INVESTIGATING THE PARANORMAL FOR ABOUT 21 YEARS NOW.
MADISON MENTIONED THAT SHE FEELS LIKE SOMEONE'S, LIKE, CREEPING UP ON HER, AND SHE TURNS AROUND AND THERE'S NOBODY THERE, SEEING THINGS OUT OF THE CORNER OF HER EYE, LIKE PEOPLE WALKING BY THE OPEN DOORWAY.
SHE'S HEARING FOOTSTEPS ABOVE WHILE THEY'RE IN THERE PLAYING AROUND AND SOUNDS OF BOXES BEING DRAGGED ACROSS THE TOP.
I'M JUS SITTING THERE LISTENING, AND SURE ENOUGH, I'M HEARING A COUPLE OF FOOTSTEPS.
AND SHE POINTS RIGHT OVER HERE.
IT'S RIGHT ABOVE MY HEAD.
SO, WE PULLED THE STAIRS DOWN AND GO UP THERE TO SEE WHAT COULD BE MAKING THAT NOISE.
THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING UP THERE THAT COULD BE MAKING THAT NOISE.
AS SOON AS WE WALK AWAY, WE HEAR MORE WALKING RIGHT ABOVE OUR HEADS.
[ THUNK .]
AFTER HEARING A LOT OF THE ACTIVITY, I DECIDED WE'RE GONNA DO SOME MORE INVESTIGATING TO SEE IF WE CAN NARROW DOWN WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON IN THE HOUSE.
WE GOT THIS NEW ITC UNI WE'RE TRYING OUT.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, I'M HI WITH THIS CHARGE OF ELECTRICITY.
[ ELECTRICITY CRACKLING .]
Hayes: HE HAD A SIMILAR FEELING OF THE NINE-VOLT BATTERY ON YOUR SKIN.
Brigati: WHEN SHE WAS TELLING US ABOUT THE EXPERIENCES SHE WAS HAVING AND THEN WE WERE THERE TO VALIDATE THAT FACT, I THINK IT WAS MORE A PRESSURE OFF HER BECAUSE WE'RE EXPERIENCING IT NOW, TOO.
AFTER WE STARTED SEEING SO MUCH ACTIVITY GOING ON, I REALIZED THEY MIGHT BE IN THERE TRYING TO PROVOKE THINGS, TRYING TO STIR STUFF UP.
Hayes: AND HE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE ATTIC WAS THE HOT SPOT IN THE ROOM BECAUSE IT WAS THE QUIETES PLACE IN THE ROOM WHERE THERE WASN'T PEOPLE.
Brigati: SO, WE'RE FILMING AND TAKING PICTURES AND STUFF.
Hayes: I WAS SITTING ON THE COUCH IN THE CORNER, AND ONE OF MY FRIENDS WAS SITTING IN THE MIDDLE ON THE FUTON THAT WAS LAID DOWN.
AND I HAD SNAPPED A COUPLE PICTURES.
[ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
AND IN THESE PICTURES, IT LOOKED LIKE STILL FRAMES OF A BLACK MASS MOVING FROM THE LEFT SIDE TO THE RIGHT SIDE.
WITHIN THIS BLACK MASS, YOU CAN SEE A BUNCH OF DIFFERENT ORBS, AND YOU COULD TELL THAT THE BLACK MASS WAS A THREE-DIMENSIONAL OBJEC BECAUSE IT WAS IN FRONT OF THE LADDER AND IT WAS BEHIND THE LADDER, AS WELL.
Brigati: SHE CAUGHT THAT IMAGE, AND THAT'S USUALLY A PRETTY BAD SIGN OF SOMETHING NEGATIVE.
YOU COULD START FEELING THE ENERGY IN THE ROOM CHANGING.
THE FRESH AIR WAS GETTING THICKER AND DENSER AGAIN.
IT'S GETTING STALE AGAIN.
Hayes: THE FAC THAT WE HAD GOTTEN A PICTURE OF SUCH A BIG, NEGATIVE MASS LED ME TO BELIEVE THAT I WAS IN A ROOM WITH SOMETHING THAT COULD HARM ME IF IT WANTED TO.
AND I FELT KIND OF LUCKY THAT IT HADN'T GOTTEN VIOLENT.
AFTER A LOT OF ACTIVITY WAS IN THE GAME ROOM, WE SPENT LESS TIME IN THERE, AND WE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THINGS WERE COMING INTO THE HOUSE.
Brigati: AND THEY WERE FILMING THINGS JUMPING OFF THE COUCH.
YOU SEE THINGS MOVING HERE AND THERE.
AND WE STARTED TO NOTICE THAT THE FEELING THAT WE HAD HAD IN THE GAME ROOM WAS NOW IN THE HOUSE.
Brigati: SO, A COUPLE DAYS LATER, THE HOMEOWNER AND A COUPLE OF THE KIDS WERE FILMING, AND THE HOMEOWNER GOES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU HEAR MAN'S VOICE GO, "NO!" GET OUT! AND THEN THE FAN IN THE CORNER TURNS ON ALL BY ITSELF.
THERE'S NOBODY OVER THERE.
IT'S NOT JUST A LOOSE SOCKE OR NOTHING.
YOU HAVE TO TURN THE KNOB PRETTY HARD TO GET IT TO TURN ON, AND IT TURNS ON FULL POWER.
Hayes: AFTER EXPERIENCING EVERYTHING IN THE HOUSE, IT WAS GAME OVER FOR ME.
I COULDN'T BE IN THAT ROOM ANYMORE.
AFTER STEFAN HAD INVESTIGATED AND TOLD US TO NOT INTERACT WITH IT AS MUCH, THE ACTIVITY HAS BECOME MORE SPACED OUT, BUT IT'S STILL THERE.
Brigati: SOME OF THE PHOTOS THAT WE'RE TAKING [ CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKS .]
I WAS COMPLETELY BLOWN AWAY BY WHAT I WAS SEEING.
I'M CONVINCED THAT THEY NEED TO BACK OFF THIS THING.
IT'S BECOMING NEGATIVE.
IT'S THREATENING.
IT'S NOT GOING IN A GOOD DIRECTION.
IT'S GETTING WORSE.
Hayes: I'VE BEGAN TO TELL MYSELF THAT I'M THE ONE WITH A HEARTBEAT.
THIS IS MY HOUSE.
THIS IS MY TIME ON THIS EARTH.
BUT I'D BE WILLING TO COEXIST AS LONG AS IT DIDN'T TURN VIOLENT.
