A Fright at the Opera

1 MOVING.
IT'S MOVING.
ON THIS EPISODE OF "GHOST HUNTERS" BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE.
Steve: THE GENTLEMAN WHO CALLED US IN NEVER EVEN BELIEVED IN THE SUPERNATURAL.
Jason: HIS BIG CONCERN IS HE FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IN THERE JUST DOES NOT WANT HIM THERE.
SOMETHING JUST JUMPED ON ME, KIND OF FORCED ME DOWN THE STAIRS.
IT WAS TRYING TO KILL ME.
NOBODY WAS IN HERE, AND I HEARD A LITTLE GIRL SCREAM.
WHAT IS THAT SOUND? What the? AND LATER A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS ARE GOING ON.
IT'S A FAMILY THAT IS KIND OF SCARED FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY.
K.
J.
: THEY DON'T WAN THEIR CHILDREN TO BE HARMED.
HOLY [BLEEP.]
I NOTICED THAT I WOULD HAVE SCRATCHES WHEN I WOKE UP, AND THEN WHEN MILES WAS BORN, HE STARTED GETTING SCRATCHES.
AND HE TOLD US KYLE DID IT.
IS KYLE HERE? OH! OH! -- Captions by VITAC -- CAPTIONS PAID FOR BY PILGRIM FILMS AND TELEVISION, INC.
Jason: SO, I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS.
WE'RE HEADING OU TO CARTHAGE, MISSOURI, TO THE BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE.
AND WHAT'S KIND OF COOL ABOUT THIS CASE IS THE GENTLEMAN WHO CALLED US IN -- HE NEVER EVEN BELIEVED IN THE SUPERNATURAL AT ALL.
Jason: HIS BIG CONCERN IS HE FEELS LIKE SOMETHING IN THERE JUST DOES NOT WANT HIM THERE.
WE DEFINITELY NEED TO JUST HELP HIM OUT.
Jason: TAPS CASE HI.
HOW ARE YOU? GOOD.
I'M JASON.
HI.
I'M KEITH.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
HEY, KEITH.
I'M STEVE.
HI, STEVE.
NICE TO MEET YOU.
YOU WANT TO BRING US IN AND SHOW US AROUND? YEAH.
JUST COME UP THIS WAY.
OUR CLIENT, KEITH McBRIDE, HAS EXPERIENCED A SERIES OF UNEXPLAINED AND FRIGHTENING EVENTS SINCE PURCHASING THE BUILDING AND RESTORING THE OPERA HOUSE, AS WELL AS RUNNING AN ANTIQUE SHOP ON THE MAIN FLOOR.
Keith: WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE BUILDING, I THOUGHT SOMEBODY HAD BROKEN INTO THE BUILDING.
THERE WAS NOBODY UP HERE.
AND AFTER A WHILE, YOU'RE LIKE, "WHAT'S GOING ON?" AND HOW LONG HAVE YOU OWNED THE BUILDING FOR? I PURCHASED THE BUILDING THREE YEARS AGO.
WHAT'S SOME OF THE HISTORY? IN 1878, THIS WAS THE OPERA HOUSE, AND IT RAN TILL 1893.
AND THEN, FOR A FEW YEARS AFTER THAT, IT WAS THE TURNER HARNESS FACTORY.
THEY PURCHASED THE BUILDING IN 1905.
THROUGH THE CENTURIES, DIFFERENT FLOORS HAVE HOUSED VARIOUS BUSINESSES, INCLUDING A MORTUARY IN THE BASEMENT.
IT'S BELIEVED THAT EACH FLOOR EXPERIENCES HAUNTINGS RELATED TO DIFFERENT ERAS OF THE BUILDING'S HISTORY.
I LOOKED OVER, AND I SEEN THIS MAN AND WOMAN.
THIS MAN WAS DRESSED IN A THREE-PIECE SUIT.
THE WOMAN WAS DRESSED IN A WHITE DRESS FROM THE LATE 1800s.
I KNOW BEYOND A SHADOW OF A DOUBT THIS PLACES IS HAUNTED.
Jason: THE TOP FLOOR IS THE OPERA HOUSE, WHERE CLAIMS SEEM TO BE TIED TO THE TURN OF THE 20th CENTURY.
Livingston-Martin: IN THE OPERA HOUSE, I SAW A BLACK MIS THAT WAS IN A HUMANOID SHAPE THAT WAS AT THE FRON OF THE BUILDING IN THE OLD CASHBOX AREA.
IT WAS PRETTY CREEPY.
Jason: KEITH HAS EVEN PROVIDED TAPS WITH A PHOTO OF A SUPPOSED APPARITION NEAR THE WINDOWS.
THE MAIN FLOOR IS KEITH'S ANTIQUE STORE, WHERE CLAIMS ARE BELIEVED TO BE CONNECTED TO THE 1930s AND BEYOND.
IT WASN'T SO LONG AGO EVEN I SAW AN ENTITY RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.
WHAT TYPE OF ENTITY? SHE LOOKED JUST LIKE THE LADY IN "AMERICAN GOTHIC.
" SHE JUST WALKED RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, AND THEN SHE TURNED HER HEAD AWAY AND COMPLETELY DISAPPEARED.
AND THEN I REALIZED THAT I COULDN'T SEE HER FEET.
YOU COULDN'T SEE HER FEET? I COULD NOT SEE HER FEET.
TOWARDS THE BACK, I HEARD AN OLDER, STERN LADY, AND SHE SAID, "STOP RUNNING.
" AND IMMEDIATELY I KIND OF JUST PAUSED, LOOKED AROUND FOR A SECOND, AND, YOU KNOW, THOUGHT TO MYSELF, "DID I HEAR WHAT I THOUGHT I JUST HEARD?" AND JUST TOOK OFF.
Steve: SO, IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU WANT TO FILL US IN ON? THIS WAS REALLY WEIRD TO ME.
I CAME HERE ONE NIGH AND NOTICED AN ILLUMINATED "3" IN THE FLOOR.
AND EXACTLY THREE MONTHS TO THE DAY IS WHEN THE FIRE IN THE BUILDING NEXT DOOR HAPPENED.
THREE MONTHS TO THE DAY? TO THE DAY.
AN UNATTENDED CANDLE WAS LEFT BURNING AND TOOK DOWN THE WHOLE BUILDING.
WOW.
IN THE BASEMENT, PEOPLE CLAIM TO HAVE SEEN AND HEARD A YOUNG GIRL WHO IS BELIEVED TO BE THE VICTIM OF A RUNAWAY-CARRIAGE ACCIDEN IN THE LATE 1800s.
SHE AND HER MOTHER DIED WHEN THEY WERE FLUNG FROM THEIR CARRIAGE AND PULLED INTO FLOODED TUNNELS THAT RAN UNDER THE BUILDING.
Michael: IT WAS ABOUT CLOSING TIME, AND IT WAS ALL QUIET; NOBODY WAS IN HERE.
AND I HEARD A LITTLE GIRL SCREAM.
[ SCREAM ECHOES .]
AND THAT WAS KIND OF FREAKING ME OUT.
Jason: KEITH'S FEAR REACHED A CRITICAL POINT RECENTLY, AFTER HE WAS OVERCOME BY THE FEELING OF SOMETHING TRYING TO PUSH HIM DOWN THE STAIRS.
I CAME UP HERE AND HEADED DOWN THAT STAIRWAY, AND SOMETHING JUST JUMPED ON ME.
IT WAS LIKE 400 POUNDS, AND IT WAS TRYING TO FORCE ME DOWN THE STAIRS.
I GRABBED ONTO THE SIDE OF THE WALL, AND I JUST HELD ON FOR DEAR LIFE.
IT LASTED ABOUT 10 TO 15 SECONDS, AND THEN IT WAS OFF ME.
I FELT LIKE IT WAS TRYING TO KILL ME.
GEEZ.
WHAT ARE YOU HOPING WE'RE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH HERE, THOUGH? WELL, FIRST, I'D LIKE TO KNOW, WHY WOULD YOU ATTACK ME AND MY EMPLOYEES? IF YOU COULD FIND OU WHAT'S GOING ON, WHO'S HERE, YOU KNOW, JUST KIND OF GIVE ME MAYBE A PEACE OF MIND OR LET THEM KNOW SOMEHOW THAT I'M HERE, I OWN IT, I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE, AND ALL I WANT TO DO IS JUST CONTINUE TO RESTORE THE BUILDING.
ALL RIGHT.
WELL, WE'RE GONNA DO OUR BEST, FOR SURE.
YEAH, WE'LL GO TALK TO THE REST OF THE CREW AND START FIGURING OUT HOW TO START SETTING UP, ALL RIGHT? ALL RIGHT.
SOUNDS GREAT.
THANK YOU, JASON.
NO, THANK YOU.
Jason: MY ONLY CONCERN WITH WHAT HE JUST SAID WAS PERFECT ENTITY MISSING ITS FEET.
THAT SEEMS INHUMAN, DOESN'T IT? MAYBE WE'RE NOT DEALING WITH HUMAN OR INTELLIGENT-TYPE HAUNTS HERE.
WE NEED TO BE ON GUARD A LITTLE BIT TONIGHT, YOU KNOW? FOR NOW, ANYWAY.
LET'S JUST WATCH OU WHAT'S GOING ON.
THANK YOU, SIR.
THANK YOU.
Jason: SO, WE JUST FINISHED TALKING WITH KEITH ON THE BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE, AND HE WAS FILLING US IN ABOUT A LOT OF THE CLAIMS THAT THEY'VE HAD OVER HERE -- EVERYTHING FROM SEEING APPARITIONS TO FEELING LIKE THEY'RE BEING PUSHED DOWN THE STAIRS.
KEITH IS TRULY SCARED.
HE'S SCARED FOR HIS SAFETY, HIS FAMILY'S SAFETY, AND HE JUST WANTS TO KNOW WHAT'S GOING ON HERE.
BUT HE DID BRING UP SOME THINGS THAT WOULD LEAD ME DOWN THAT PATH OF BELIEVING THAT WE'RE DEALING WITH SOMETHING MORE MALICIOUS.
JUST WANT TO SEE IF YOU HAVE EYES ON THIS FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERA ON THE STAIRWELL.
Jason: IT'S GOOD TO HAVE DUSTIN HERE INVESTIGATING WITH US.
HE'S LIKE A BROTHER TO ME.
HE'S BEEN WITH ME FOR MANY, MANY YEARS.
AND HE'S JUS A GREAT INVESTIGATOR.
YEAH, I'LL HEAD UPSTAIRS.
YOU'RE HANGING IN THE TRUCK? SO, WE'RE SETTING UP A FULL-SPECTRUM CAMERA ON THE FIRST FLOOR.
THERE WAS AN APPARITION OF A WOMAN SEEN, AND SUPPOSEDLY, SHE DIDN'T HAVE ANY FEET.
THIS IS THE HALLWAY THAT WHEN KEITH CAME IN LATE THAT NIGH TO DO SOME BUSINESS, HE SAW THE "3" GLOWING ON THE FLOOR.
THREE MONTHS LATER, TO THE DAY, THE BUILDING NEXT DOOR BURNS DOWN.
YOU SEE ME ON THAT CAMERA? Dave: I DO.
LET'S TILT DOWN.
ALL RIGHT.
THAT'S GOOD.
Jason: ALL RIGHT.
LET'S HIT THE LIGHTS OUT, MAN.
LET'S GET INVESTIGATING.
ALL RIGHT.
SOUNDS GOOD.
START IT.
THEY HEAR MUSIC IN HERE? YES, THEY HEAR MUSIC.
AND THIS WAS AN OPERA HOUSE? YEAH, THIS WAS AN OPERA HOUSE.
OKAY, WELL, HERE.
I'M GOING TO THE OPERA.
YEP.
THIS PLACE IS BEAUTIFUL.
AND I'M GONNA SIT HERE.
YEAH? OH, THERE'S A PERFORMER ONSTAGE.
WOULD YOU LIKE TO JOIN ME FOR THIS PERFORMANCE? DA-NA-NA [ ORGAN PLAYS BACH'S "TOCCATA AND FUGUE IN D MINOR" .]
IT GOES DEEP.
[ MELODY REPEATS IN LOWER KEY .]
YEAH, BUT THEN IT GOES DEEP, GOING DOWN.
[ VOCALIZING .]
[ ORGAN PLAYS OFF-KEY .]
[ GROANS .]
[ ORGAN STOPS .]
I WANT MY MONEY BACK.
[ LAUGHS .]
REFUND! [ PLAYING RESUMES, STOPS .]
SO, THIS CASE INVOLVES THE SPIRITS OF, POSSIBLY, SOME SMALL CHILDREN.
SO WE DO HAVE A TEDDY-BEAR DEVICE THAT ACTUALLY HAS AN EMF DEVICE BUILT INTO IT, AND WE'RE GONNA TRY TO SEND DAVE AND SAM DOWN INTO THE BASEMENT, WHERE A GIRL ENDED UP DROWNING AND PASSED AWAY DOWN THERE.
I THINK IT'LL BE GOOD TO HAVE THIS EMF TRIGGER DEVICE THAT'S BUIL INTO THIS TEDDY BEAR DOWN THERE IN HOPES THAT IT COMFORTS A CHILD AND ALLOWS THEM TO COME OU AND COMMUNICATE WITH US.
ALL RIGHT, I'M GOING TO PUT I RIGHT HERE IN THIS HOLE.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR THE LITTLE GIRL WHO DIED IN THAT CARRIAGE ACCIDENT.
PEOPLE SAY THEY'VE SEEN AND HEARD YOU CRYING DOWN HERE.
IS THERE A LITTLE GIRL DOWN HERE? WE BROUGHT A TEDDY BEAR FOR YOU.
YOU CAN GRAB IT, PLAY WITH IT.
IT WON'T HURT YOU IN ANY WAY.
IT'S JUST A TOY WITH SOME LIGHTS ON IT.
Dave: WE WANTED TO REALLY TRY TO REACH OUT TO THIS LITTLE GIRL WHO WAS SEEN CRYING, AND WE JUST ASKED FOR WHOEVER'S DOWN HERE TO, YOU KNOW, TAKE THE TEDDY BEAR.
"IF YOU CAN LIGHT IT UP, IF YOU CAN TOUCH IT, IT'S YOURS.
" WE'RE GOING TO LEAVE THIS TEDDY BEAR HERE FOR YOU.
IF YOU'RE SHY, YOU CAN COME OUT AND PLAY WITH IT AFTER WE LEAVE.
ALL RIGHT, DUSTIN AND K.
J.
, WE'RE ON THE TOP FLOOR OF THE BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE.
MR.
TURNER, IF YOU'RE HERE, WE KNOW THAT YOU WERE ONE-TIME OWNER OF THIS BUILDING AND YOU DIDN'T WAN THIS BUILDING TO BE SOLD AFTER YOUR DEMISE.
YOU WANTED IT TO STAY IN THE FAMILY.
MAYBE THAT WAS YOU THAT TRIED TO PUSH KEITH DOWN THE STAIRS.
[ WHOOSH .]
WHAT WAS THAT? [ WHOOSH .]
[ WHOOSHING CONTINUES .]
YOU KNOW, DUSTIN AND I KEEP HEARING SOMETHING IN THAT BACK CORNER.
K.
J.
: OKAY, HERE WE ARE.
KEITH CLAIMS THAT A MALICIOUS ENTITY TRIED TO PUSH HIM DOWN THE STAIRS.
WE'RE GONNA TAKE A WALK DOWN THESE STAIRS, OKAY? WE'RE NOT TRYING TO TAUNT YOU, BUT WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OU WHO YOU ARE.
[ WHOOSHING CONTINUES .]
WHAT IS THAT SOUND? Coming from downstairs.
Sounds like Wait, shh.
Stop, stop.
What the? K.
J.
: WE'RE NOT TRYING TO TAUNT YOU, BUT WE ARE TRYING TO FIGURE OU WHO YOU ARE.
Dustin: WHAT IS THAT SOUND? Wait, shh.
Stop, stop.
What the? It's music of some kind.
Now it just stopped.
K.
J.
AND I ARE INVESTIGATING UPSTAIRS ON THE THIRD FLOOR.
WE COME DOWN THE STAIRS, AND AS WE'RE ON THE LANDING ON THE SECOND FLOOR, I HEAR MUSIC COMING UP THE CENTER OF THE STAIRWELL.
WE COME DOWN HERE, AND THE PLACE IS JUST DESOLATE, BUT WE DEFINITELY HEARD MUSIC, AND THAT'S JUST COOL, BECAUSE THAT VALIDATES AT LEAS THE EXPERIENCES THAT OUR CLIENT, KEITH, ASKED US TO COME IN AND CHECK OUT.
DUDE, YOU HAD THE RECORDER WITH YOU, RIGHT? I HAD THE RECORDER GOING THERE.
SWEET CHRISTMAS.
GOOD JOB.
WE HAD TO HAVE PICKED THAT UP.
WE HAD TO HAVE PICKED THAT UP.
YEAH, BUDDY.
DUDE, THAT WAS PRETTY COOL.
WE HEARD YOU.
YOU HAVE OUR ATTENTION.
Dave: I'M GONNA PULL UP THAT PICTURE.
Samantha: OKAY.
MAYBE WE CAN TRY TO DISPROVE IT.
SO, LOOKING AT THIS WINDOW, LOOKING AT THAT.
YEP.
THIS WOULD BE THE BODY AND THE HEAD.
YEP, AND THE HEAD RIGHT THERE, LOOKING OUT.
WHAT'S UNDER THE WINDOW? LIKE, DOES IT HAVE MASS UNDER IT? Dave: IT'S HARD TO SEE 'CAUSE IT'S BLACK ON BLACK, KIND OF.
THE THING WITH PHOTOS LIKE THIS -- I DON' KNOW WHO INVESTIGATED IT.
I DON'T KNOW WHO TOOK THE PICTURE.
I DON' KNOW WHO WAS THERE.
LIKE, THERE COULD HAVE BEEN A FRIEND OR SOMEONE LOOKING OUT THE WINDOW, AND THEY JUST SAID, "OH, WE'RE GONNA -- YOU LOOK CRAZY.
" AND THEY WERE JUST SHOOTING AND DIDN'T THINK.
AND THEY'RE JUS TAKING PICTURES, DIDN'T EVEN REALIZE IT.
GO BACK AND LOOK AT IT.
WHICH HAPPENS A LOT MORE THAN PEOPLE THINK, YOU KNOW? YEAH.
SO, DAVE AND I WANTED TO TRY RE-CREATING IT.
WE TOOK A FEW DIFFERENT PHOTOS.
WE, AT ONE POINT, TOOK CURTAINS DOWN OFF WINDOWS AND MOVED THEM AROUND.
I MEAN, WE WERE TRYING TO GE EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS.
THERE IS A TREE OUTSIDE THAT SOME OF THE LIMBS DO SIT IN THE SAME, EXACT SPO THAT THINGS IN THE SHADOW DID, BUT AT THE SAME TIME, THIS THING HAD MASS.
I MEAN, IT WAS DARK.
IT WAS BLACK.
WE TRIED TO RE-CREATE I THE BEST WE COULD, BUT IT WASN'T THE SAME.
Jason: JAY AND STEVE, BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE ANTIQUE STORE.
WHY IS THAT LIGHT ON? NO LIGHT SWITCH? HERE, I'LL GO DOWN AND CHECK.
GOT THE FUSE BOX RIGHT HERE.
OH, HERE YOU GO.
AH.
UM Steve: DID YOU HEAR THAT? YEAH, IT JUST SOUNDED LIKE FOOTSTEPS.
RUNNING.
"BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.
" IS ANYBODY ELSE IN HERE AT ALL? NO, IT'S JUST US.
ARE YOU SURE THERE'S NOBODY ELSE IN HERE? THERE'S NOBODY IN HERE.
THAT WAS -- I MEAN, THAT WAS RUNNING.
I KNOW, AND I CAUGHT THAT, RIGHT HERE.
AH.
AH.
THAT CAME RIGHT UP -- RIGHT UP BEHIND ME.
JUST CAME RUNNING RIGHT UP AFTER ME.
OH, IT SURE DID.
THAT'S AN EXPERIENCE THAT KEITH CLAIMS.
WE'D LIKE TO TALK TO YOU.
KEITH CLAIMS THA HE'S SEEN AN OLDER WOMAN HERE, POSSIBLY FROM THE 1930s.
ARE YOU AROUND? WE'VE GOT THIS DEVICE RIGHT HERE.
SO, ALL YOU NEED TO DO IS TAP ON THE DEVICE, AND IT WILL LIGHT UP AND MAKE A BEEPING SOUND.
IT'S NOT GOING OFF RIGHT NOW, AS YOU CAN SEE, BUT IF YOU TAP IT, IT WILL.
[ BEEP .]
OKAY.
CAN YOU DO IT AGAIN? [ BEEP .]
HOW MANY OF US ARE IN HERE THAT ARE WITH ME? CAN YOU BEEP THAT MANY TIMES? [ BEEP, BEEP, BEEP .]
THERE'S THREE -- YOU, ME, KENDALL.
YEAH.
[ BEEP .]
NICE.
[ BEEP, BEEP .]
[ BEEP .]
CAN YOU DO ME A FAVOR AND NOT BEEP THE DEVICE UNTIL I ASK YOU AGAIN? OKAY.
YOU CAN BEEP IT.
BEEP IT MULTIPLE TIMES.
[ BEEP, BEEP .]
GEEZ.
OKAY.
Steve: AND WE DID A PRETTY GOOD SESSION WITH THE GEOPHONE APPLICATION, AND I THINK WE WERE ABLE TO GE SOME DIRECT COMMUNICATION, MAYBE SOME RESPONSES TO THE QUESTIONS THAT WE WERE ASKING, AND I THINK WE GOT SOME EXPERIENCES THAT WE MAY BE ABLE TO CONSIDER SUPERNATURAL.
DO YOU KNOW WHO KEITH IS? [ BEEP, BEEP, BEEP .]
Dustin: THIS IS DUSTIN AND K.
J.
, DOWNSTAIRS IN THE BASEMENT.
SO, WE HEAR STORIES ABOUT A YOUNG LADY THAT LOST HER LIFE HERE, THE YOUNG GIRL FROM THE 1800s WHO PASSED AWAY.
THEY HEAR GIRLS CRYING DOWN HERE.
THEY THINK THEY SEE YOUR IMAGE, AS WELL.
IS THERE ANY WAY YOU CAN COMMUNICATE WITH US TONIGHT? WE'D APPRECIATE IT.
I'LL PLACE AUDIO DOWN THERE.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE OF YOUR PRESENCE.
WE KNOW THAT THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT OUTSIDE.
IT'S BELIEVED THAT YOU FELL OU OF A CARRIAGE AND WERE FLUNG INTO THE FLOODED TUNNELS THAT RAN UNDERNEATH THE BUILDING, AND THAT'S WHERE YOU DROWNED.
YOU CAN TRY TO GENTLY INTERAC WITH ONE OF US, TOO, IF YOU'D LIKE.
[ CLICKING .]
WHOA.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? Dustin: WE KNOW THAT THERE WAS AN ACCIDENT OUTSIDE.
IT'S BELIEVED THAT YOU FELL OU OF A CARRIAGE AND WERE FLUNG INTO THE FLOODED TUNNELS THAT RAN UNDERNEATH THE BUILDING, AND THAT'S WHERE YOU DROWNED.
YOU CAN TRY TO GENTLY INTERAC WITH ONE OF US, TOO, IF YOU'D LIKE.
[ CLICKING .]
WHOA.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? I THOUGHT I HEARD ALMOST, LIKE, A GIRL'S VOICE, OR, LIKE, A SOB.
K.
J.
: DID YOU REALLY? YEAH, SERIOUSLY, DUDE, LIKE, FROM THE LEFT SIDE, OVER HERE.
DID YOU JUS TRY TO CRY OUT TO US? IS THERE A SPIRI OF A LITTLE GIRL HERE? WE THINK WE HEARD YOU.
Jason: HEY, YOU KNOW WHAT? LET'S JUST CHECK OU THE BACK STAIRCASE.
IT'S WHERE KEITH CLAIMS HE SUDDENLY FEL SOME HEAVY WEIGH COME OVER HIM, LIKE SOMETHING JUMPED ON HIS BACK AND TRIED TO PUSH HIM DOWN THE STAIRS.
WE'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW WHAT YOUR ISSUE WITH KEITH IS.
STEP RIGHT HERE.
LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU FEEL.
ALL OF A SUDDEN IT FEELS LIKE YOUR LEGS GET HEAVY.
YEAH.
ESPECIALLY RIGHT THERE.
OH, CRAP.
DO YOU THINK THAT'S WHAT HIS PROBLEM WAS, THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN, HE GOT DISORIENTED? I DON'T KNOW.
I DON'T EVEN TO HAVE A FUNHOUSE EFFECT, IT WOULDN'T GIVE YOU THE FEELING THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN, YOU'VE, LIKE, INCREASED YOUR WEIGHT.
Steve: WEIRD.
Jason: STEVE AND I WERE JUST LOOKING AT THE STAIRS WHERE KEITH CLAIMS THAT HE FELT THIS EXTREMELY HEAVY WEIGHT ON HIS BODY.
AND STRANGELY, WHEN YOU GET DOWN TO THE SECOND FLIGHT, YOU STEP DOWN ON THE LANDING, AND IT DOES -- YOUR LEGS FEEL LIKE THEY PUT ON SOME SERIOUS WEIGHT.
Jason: STEVE THERE WAS JUST WALKING, AND THEN THERE WAS, LIKE, THIS SHADOW THAT APPEARED.
A shadow.
Hey, shh, shh.
Don't move.
[ TAPPING .]
Jason: DID YOU JUST HEAR THAT BANG JUST A SECOND AGO? YEP.
SOUNDS LIKE THERE'S SOMETHING MOVING AROUND US.
THAT SOUNDS LIKE WALKING.
IT'S MOVING.
IT'S MOVING.
IF YOU'RE SO BIG AND BAD, WHY ARE YOU HIDING? WE'LL MEET YOU RIGHT HERE IN THE MIDDLE.
WE'RE NOT AFRAID OF YOU.
WE'RE NOT GONNA BACK DOWN.
I'M GONNA DO AN EMF SWEEP AS WE WALK.
SAM AND I ARE INVESTIGATING ON THE MAIN FLOOR, AND THERE'S A FEW VISUAL CLAIMS THAT WE WANT TO CHECK OUT.
THERE'S THE NUMBER "3" THA WAS SEEN BY OUR CLIENT, KEITH, AND ALSO THERE'S A FEMALE SEEN IN THIS CORNER THAT WAS SIMILAR TO THE WOMAN IN THE "AMERICAN GOTHIC" PAINTING, AND SHE WAS MISSING HER FEET.
Dave: WE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHO YOU ARE.
DO YOU NEED HELP? [ WALKIE-TALKIE BEEPS .]
JASON: Hey, guys.
LET'S GET THE LIGHTS ON.
IT'S GETTING LATE.
IT'S TIME TO WRAP.
SO, WE JUST WRAPPED THE INVESTIGATION HERE AT THE BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE, AND IT'S BEEN A RATHER INTERESTING INVESTIGATION.
FOR WHATEVER REASON, KEITH HAS GOT THIS BELIEF THAT THIS THING HERE IS TRYING TO SCARE HIM OUT, AND TO BE HONEST, TONIGHT, THE WAY THIS THING WAS ACTING WITH US, IT GAVE VERY MUCH THAT SAME IMPRESSION.
WE'VE DONE A LOT OF WORK, WE'VE RUN A LOT OF EQUIPMENT, AND HAD A LO OF GREAT EXPERIENCES.
SO IT'LL BE INTERESTING TO GET BACK AND TRY TO SEE IF ANYTHING TURNS UP ON THE EVIDENCE REVIEW.
IT'S BEEN AWESOME HAVING DUSTIN OUT HERE WITH US AGAIN, HANGING OUT.
I'M NOT KISSING YOU.
[ LAUGHS .]
SO, NOW WE'RE JUST GONNA TRY TO FIGURE OUT WHAT'S GOING ON OVER HERE SO WE CAN HELP KEITH AND HIS FAMILY.
[ LAUGHTER .]
WHEN OUR CLIENT, KEITH McBRIDE, PURCHASED THE BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE THREE YEARS AGO WITH THE INTENTION OF RESTORING THE BUILDING, HE GOT FAR MORE THAN HE BARGAINED FOR.
AFTER A TERRIFYING ENCOUNTER WITH A DARK PRESENCE ON THE BACK STAIRS, KEITH CALLED IN TAPS TO UNCOVER ANY POSSIBLE ENTITIES IN THE BUILDING.
HEY, KEITH.
IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN.
GOOD SEEING YOU, JASON.
HEY, MAN.
HOW'S IT GOING? Jason: WE'VE CAREFULLY REVIEWED OUR EVIDENCE, AND NOW IT'S TIME TO PRESEN OUR FINDINGS TO KEITH.
SO, WE HAD SOME GREAT THINGS WE'D LIKE TO SHOW YOU AND GET YOUR TAKE ON AND SEE IF THESE ARE EXPERIENCE YOU'VE HAD AND GO FROM THERE.
OKAY.
SOUNDS GREAT.
WE WEREN'T ABLE TO HAVE THE EXPERIENCE THAT YOU HAD ON THE BACK STAIRS WITH THA WEIGHT ON YOUR SHOULDERS.
THE ONE THING I WILL SAY IS YOU GET THE FUNHOUSE EFFECT.
WHEN YOU STEP DOWN, YOU FEEL LIKE YOU JUST PUT ON 30 POUNDS 'CAUSE OF THE WAY IT'S FALLING BACK.
BUT THAT DOESN'T EXPLAIN THE HEAVY WEIGHT THAT YOU FEL ON YOUR SHOULDERS, AS IF IT WAS PUSHING YOU DOWN.
AS FOR THAT NUMBER "3", WE WEREN'T ABLE TO CATCH THAT.
IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN SOMETHING TOTALLY BESIDES WHAT YOU HAVE HERE.
SOMETIMES, THINGS JUST PASS THROUGH.
ALL RIGHT, SO, THIS PIECE WE'RE GONNA SHOW YOU -- WE'VE GOT A GEOPHONE THAT SENSES VIBRATIONS THAT WE'RE ABLE TO USE ON OUR MOBILE DEVICES, AND THAT'S A WAY OF COMMUNICATING BACK AND FORTH.
SO, WE'LL PLAY IT FOR YOU, AND YOU CAN GO FROM THERE.
HOW MANY OF US ARE IN HERE THAT ARE WITH ME? CAN YOU BEEP THAT MANY TIMES? [ BEEP, BEEP, BEEP .]
THERE'S THREE.
JASON AND MYSELF, AND WE HAD A CAMERA OPERATOR THERE WITH US, AS WELL.
SO, FOR IT TO BE ABLE TO SEE THREE PEOPLE IN THE ROOM AND COMMUNICATE THAT TO US IS PRETTY COOL.
SO, IT'S A CONSCIOUS PRESENCE.
IT SHOWS INTELLIGENCE.
INTELLIGENCE.
WOW.
IT DEFINITELY SHOWS INTELLIGENCE.
SURE DOES.
THAT WAS A GREAT PIECE OF EVIDENCE, BUT WAIT TILL YOU HEAR THIS NEXT PIECE.
Jason: STEVE AND I ARE AT THE BURLINGAME & CHAFFEE OPERA HOUSE, SHOWING KEITH THE EVIDENCE WE CAPTURED.
AT ONE POINT, WE WERE UP HERE INVESTIGATING, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THERE APPEARED TO BE THIS BLACK SHADOW, AND THEN WE HEARD FOOTSTEPS GOING AROUND US.
[ TAPPING .]
BOOM, RIGHT THERE.
[ TAPPING .]
YOU CAN STILL HEAR MORE SOUNDS HAPPENING.
Jason: DID YOU JUST HEAR THAT BANG JUST A SECOND AGO? Steve: YEP.
SO, AGAIN, THAT KEPT ON HAPPENING.
SEEMS LIKE MAYBE ONE OF THE FORMER OWNERS IS KIND OF KEEPING WATCH OVER THE PLACE.
YEAH.
YEAH, I HEAR YOU.
THIS NEXT PIECE THAT WE'RE GONNA PLAY -- THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENED TO ME, COMING UP THE BASEMENT STAIRS, GOING TO THE FIRST FLOOR.
AH.
UM Steve: DID YOU HEAR THAT? PLAY IT AGAIN.
AH.
I HEAR SOMEONE RUNNING UP AFTER ME.
THAT'S A PRETTY COOL EXPERIENCE FOR US TO HAVE.
TWO OF OUR INVESTIGATORS, K.
J.
AND DUSTIN, WERE INVESTIGATING, AND AT ONE POINT, THEY THOUGH THEY HEARD SOMETHING.
Dustin: YOU CAN TRY TO GENTLY INTERACT WITH ONE OF US, TOO, IF YOU'D LIKE.
DID YOU HEAR THAT? YEAH, IT SOUNDED LIKE A LADY'S VOICE.
ALL RIGHT.
WE'LL PLAY IT AGAIN.
LITTLE GIRL CRYING.
"LITTLE GIRL CRYING" IS WHAT YOU SAID? THAT'S WHAT I HEARD.
IS THAT A SOUND THA YOU'VE HEARD IN THE PAST, OR SOMETHING SIMILAR? I HEARD THAT BEHIND ME IN THE BASEMENT, THE BACKDOOR.
OKAY.
HONESTLY, THAT'S WHERE THEY HAD THE EXPERIENCE.
IT WAS IN THE BASEMENT AREA.
ALL RIGHT.
NEAT.
I KNOW YOUR CONCERN WAS SAFETY, BUT WE DIDN'T REALLY GE ANYTHING THAT FELT MALICIOUS.
BUT IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS OR ANY FEARS OR CONCERNS, CALL US.
WE'LL COME BACK.
WE'LL CHECK IT OUT.
OKAY.
WE'RE HERE TO HELP.
WE'RE GONNA DO WHATEVER WE CAN.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
I CAN'T THANK YOU GUYS ENOUGH.
WE'LL GET OUT OF HERE.
McBride: IT'S REASSURING TO KNOW THAT THEY FOUND STUFF THAT I'D HEARD BEFORE.
IT'S A WONDERFUL FEELING TO KIND OF BE VINDICATED AND JUSTIFIED AND KNOW THAT I'M NOT CRAZY, AND IT'S NICE TO KNOW THAT I CAN CONTINUE ON WITH MY BUSINESS, MY BUILDING, AND TAKE CARE OF MY FAMILY.
Steve: I THINK THAT WENT GREAT.
AND I LIKE WHEN YOU LET HIM HEAR THAT VOICE AND HE INSTANT WAS LIKE, "OH, YEAH, I'VE HEARD THAT.
" GREAT CASE AND, I THINK, A GOOD JOB.
YEAH.
ON TO THE NEXT.
Jason: TAPS HAS BEEN CALLED OUT TO FAIRFIELD COUNTY, CONNECTICUT, TO HELP A FAMILY DEALING WITH AN UNEXPLAINED AND THREATENING ENTITY THAT IS TARGETING THEIR CHILDREN.
IT'S A FAMILY THAT IS KIND OF SCARED FOR THEIR OWN SAFETY.
A LOT OF DIFFERENT THINGS ARE GOING ON.
AND PEOPLE HAVE BEEN SCRATCHED, AND THERE ARE ALSO REPORTS OF FOOD BEING THROWN ACROSS THE ROOM, AND THEY'RE CONCERNED.
THEY'RE CONCERNED FOR THEIR SAFETY, FOR THE SAFETY OF THE KIDS.
THIS IS A TRUE RESIDENTIAL CASE -- WHAT WE BUILT OURSELVES ON.
YEAH.
I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO CHECKING THIS OUT.
TAPS CASE HELLO.
YOU HEATHER? YES.
I'M JASON.
HI, NICE TO MEET YOU.
THANKS FOR COMING.
IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU.
YOU WANT TO GO IN AND TALK? YEAH.
ALL RIGHT, SO, WHAT KIND OF THINGS ARE GOING ON? WELL, MY FOUR CHILDREN AND I AND MY HUSBAND LIVE HERE, AND WE'VE HAD SOME STRANGE, FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCES THAT WE CAN'T EXPLAIN, AND IT'S COME TO THE POIN WHERE MY TWO YOUNGEST CHILDREN ARE AFRAID TO SLEEP IN THEIR BEDROOM.
WELL, HOW OLD ARE THEY? 2 AND 4.
NOW, WHY ARE THEY SAYING THEY'RE SCARED TO SLEEP IN THEIR BEDROOM? WELL, MY 4-YEAR-OLD -- WHEN HE WAS YOUNGER, HE HAD AN IMAGINARY FRIEND THAT HE CALLED KYLE.
AND WE DIDN'T REALLY THINK TOO MUCH ABOUT IT AT FIRST, BUT THEN HE HAD SCRATCHES ON HIM, AND HE TOLD US KYLE DID IT.
AND DID HE SAY WHY KYLE DID IT? HE DIDN'T SAY WHY, BUT HE TOLD US THAT KYLE USED TO LIVE HERE AND THAT HE DIED OUTSIDE.
DO ANY OF THE OTHER KIDS CLAIM TO HAVE BEEN SCRATCHED? YEAH, WELL, MY OLDEST DAUGHTER, ARIELLA, ESPECIALLY, HAS HAD SOME REALLY STRANGE EXPERIENCES.
Alexander: BEFORE MILES WAS BORN, I NOTICED THAT I WOULD HAVE SCRATCHES WHEN I WOKE UP.
THEY WERE JUST LIGHT RED MARKS OF, LIKE, SCRATCHING.
AND THEN, WHEN MILES WAS BORN, HE STARTED GETTING SCRATCHES AND BLAMING THEM ON AN ENTITY.
IT'S VERY INTERESTING THAT IT STARTED WITH HER YEAH.
AND TRICKLED TO MILES.
IS SHE STILL HAVING EXPERIENCES? YES.
WELL, I WAS SITTING AT THE COMPUTER, AND I COULD SEE IN THE REFLECTION BEHIND ME -- A SOLID HUMANOID MASS.
SO I TURNED AROUND, AND I SAID, "WHAT DO YOU WANT?" AND IT WASN'T THERE ANYMORE.
SO I TURNED BACK, AND I SAW THE PLATE GET SWIPED OFF THE TABLE ONTO THE FLOOR, AND IT JUST FREAKED ME OUT.
WHEN SHE'S NOT HOME, DO YOU HAVE ACTIVITY STILL, OR IS I MAINLY WHEN SHE'S HERE? MY 18-YEAR-OLD SON HAS BEEN IN THE HOUSE ALONE, AND HE HEARS VOICES.
OKAY.
HAVE YOU HAD ANY OBJECTS MOVING AND SO FORTH WHEN YOUR OLDEST DAUGHTER WAS HOME? NO, NO.
ALL RIGHT.
AND, NOW, IS THE 2-YEAR-OLD HAVING ANY EXPERIENCES? SHE'S HAD ONE.
SHE WAS IN THE BEDROOM WITH MY OLDEST DAUGHTER AND HER BOYFRIEND.
Rahmlow: ARI AND I HAD RORY IN THE BEDROOM, AND SHE JUST KEP LOOKING PAST US, SAYING, "I DON'T LIKE THE MAN.
" I HAVE NO IDEA WHO SHE COULD HAVE BEEN REFERRING TO, 'CAUSE IT WAS JUS THE THREE OF US IN THE ROOM.
HOW LONG HAVE YOU LIVED IN THE HOUSE? SEVEN YEARS.
SEVEN YEARS.
HAD THERE BEEN ANY OTHER EXPERIENCES.
YES.
AND WHO WAS THA CENTERED AROUND? ARIELLA.
WE WERE OU AT THE GROCERY STORE.
Alexander: I HEARD SOMEONE OPEN THE GARAGE DOOR AND COME INTO THE HOUSE, AND THEN I HEARD SOMEONE STARTING TO WALK UP THE STEPS, GET TO THE LANDING, AND I LOOKED OUT OVER THE RAILING TO SEE WHO IT WAS, BUT NO ONE WAS THERE.
WELL, WHAT ARE YOU MAINLY HOPING THAT WE'RE ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH HERE? WELL, WE WANT TO RECLAIM OUR HOME AND HAVE OUR CHILDREN FEEL SAFE TO SLEEP IN THEIR BEDROOMS.
OKAY.
THEN WE'LL GO TALK TO THE REST OF THE CREW, AND WE'LL TRY TO FIGURE OU WHAT'S GOING ON FOR YOU.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH, HEATHER.
WE'LL DO OUR BEST FOR YOU, ALL RIGHT? THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU.
THANKS.
Jason: SO, WE JUST FINISHED TALKING WITH HEATHER ABOUT THE ACTIVITY THA SHE'S EXPERIENCING HERE AT THE FAMILY HOME, AND A LOT OF THIS ACTIVITY SEEMS TO REVOLVE AROUND THEIR OLDEST DAUGHTER, ARIELLA.
BUT ALSO WE HAVE TO WORRY, OURSELVES, WITH MILES, THE SON, WHO'S ENDED UP WITH SCRATCHES ON HIS ARMS.
HE TALKS ABOUT THIS APPARITION BY THE NAME OF KYLE.
GONNA SEE IF THERE'S ANY VALIDITY TO THAT.
NO MATTER WHAT, THEY'RE SCARED OF THEIR HOME, AND WE NEED TO FIGURE OU WHAT'S GOING ON AND JUST EMPOWER THEM TO TAKE THAT HOME BACK.
WE'RE SETTING UP A CAMERA IN THE KITCHEN.
THIS IS WHERE THE OLDES DAUGHTER, ARIELLA, CLAIMS THAT SHE SAW A WINE GLASS KIND OF GET THROWN ONTO THE GROUND.
SO, WE'RE SETTING UP A CAMERA HERE IN THE CHILDREN'S BEDROOM.
THIS IS WHERE IT IS SAID THEY INTERACTED WITH A LITTLE BOY NAMED KYLE.
KIDS HAVE BEEN GETTING SCRATCHED IN HERE.
THE CHILDREN ARE TERRIFIED TO SLEEP IN HERE.
THEY WON'T STAY HERE ANYMORE.
Dave: THAT LOOKS GOOD.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS, THAT'S ALL CAMERAS.
ALL RIGHT.
LET'S GET THE LIGHTS OUT.
ALL RIGHT.
Dustin: ALL RIGHT.
SO, THIS IS THE BEDROOM OF THE YOUNG CHILDREN, HERE.
THE KIDS DON'T SLEEP HERE ANYMORE.
ALL RIGHT, MAN, I'M THINKING TYPICAL KID-STYLE STUFF.
DROP LOW TO THE FLOOR, SET UP SOME TRIGGER OBJECTS.
WE MIGHT USE SOMETHING LIKE THIS.
WHATEVER THAT ROCKING TOY IS, THERE, OR SOMETHING.
WE'RE LOOKING FOR ANY SPIRITS HERE TONIGH THAT WANT TO COMMUNICATE WITH US.
TRYING TO REACH OUT TO YOU TO FIND OUT WHO YOU ARE.
MAYBE THE LITTLE BOY NAMED KYLE.
WE'RE CURIOUS TO KNOW WHY YOU DON'T WANT TO PLAY NICE.
THE BOY THAT LIVES HERE, MILES, IS STARTING TO GET AFRAID.
COME OVER AND PLAY WITH US.
Jason: STEVE AND JAY IN THE EBERLIN HOUSE.
ALL RIGHT.
SO, I DON'T KNOW IF THAT WAS JUST THE AIR.
THERE WAS JUST A SOUND OVER THERE.
IT WASN'T ANYTHING MUCH.
HELLO? DO YOU KNOW ARIELLA? Steve: WHAT IS IT ABOUT ARIELLA THAT YOU LIKE? WHY DO YOU KEEP TALKING TO HER? DO YOU KNOW MILES? IS KYLE HERE? KYLE, MILES HAS TOLD US THAT HE KNOWS YOU AND HE'S SEEN YOU.
SAYS YOU PASSED AWAY HERE ON THE PROPERTY.
SOME OF THE THINGS YOU'RE DOING ARE HURTING HIM.
I HEARD A CREAKING.
AS IF SOMEBODY WAS MOVING -- LIKE, STEPPING ON WOOD.
HANG ON A SECOND.
THAT'S THERE WAS JUST A LIGH IN THAT ROOM.
Steve: THERE'S NOBODY ON THAT SIDE OF THE HOUSE.
OH! OH! DID YOU SEE THAT? YEAH, THE BRIGHT LIGHT.
LIKE, THE WHOLE FRIGGIN' ROOM ILLUMINATES.
BUT THAT WASN'T A CAR.
WHAT IS THAT? HANG ON A SECOND.
THAT'S THERE WAS JUST A LIGH IN THAT ROOM.
Steve: THERE'S NOBODY ON THAT SIDE OF THE HOUSE.
OH! OH! DID YOU SEE THAT? YEAH, THE BRIGHT LIGHT.
LIKE, THE WHOLE FRIGGIN' ROOM ILLUMINATES.
BUT THAT WASN'T A CAR.
WHAT IS THAT? TO BE HONEST, STEVE, IT FEELS THICK IN HERE, THOUGH, DOESN'T IT? LIKE, JUST STAGNANT.
IT JUST LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING WAS IN HERE, MOVING.
SO MY FIRST THOUGHT IS, "OKAY, NOW THERE'S SOMETHING OBSTRUCTING THAT LIGH THAT IS SHINING THAT IN HERE.
" BUT THERE'S NOBODY, NOTHING OVER THERE, AND WE'RE ON THE SECOND FLOOR, NOT ON THE FIRST FLOOR.
SO THA SORT OF NEGATES THAT.
Jason: IT'S DEFINITELY STRANGE.
SO WEIRD.
Samantha: SAM AND DAVE, EBERLIN RESIDENCE.
I'M GONNA DO AN EMF SWEEP.
2.
4.
3.
WOW.
4, 5, 8, 15.
WEIRD.
THE MICROWAVE IS GIVING OFF 102, 106.
THERE'S SOME EXTREMELY HIGH EMF READINGS IN THIS ROOM.
WOW.
SAM AND I ARE IN THE KITCHEN RIGHT NOW, AND WE FOUND THA THERE'S SOME PRETTY HIGH EMF COMING FROM THE STOVE AND ALSO COMING FROM THE MICROWAVE.
THIS IS ALSO WHERE ARIELLA HAD HER EXPERIENCE.
I MEAN, IT COULD BE AS SIMPLE AS SHE PUT A GLASS DOWN AND SHE CLOSED IT.
IT WASN'T FULLY CLOSED, AND IT JUST FELL BACK.
BUT BECAUSE THE EMF IS SO HIGH AND SHE'S KIND OF PARANOID AND SHE JUST FEELS LIKE THERE'S A GHOST HERE, EMF COULD DO THAT.
IT CAN MAKE YOU VERY PARANOID AND JUST WEIRDED OUT.
SO THAT COULD EXPLAIN THAT.
K.
J.
: DUSTIN AND K.
J.
, EBERLIN RESIDENCE, LIVING-ROOM AREA.
ALL RIGHT.
SO, HE SAID, LIKE, IF YOU'RE SITTING HERE OR THERE, LIKE, YOUR BACK'S NOT TO THE HALLWAY, BUT YOU KIND OF GE THE SENSATION THAT, LIKE SOMETHING'S COMING DOWN THE HALLWAY.
I'M GONNA STAND RIGHT HERE, 'CAUSE I CAN GET A LOOK AT THEY SAID THERE'S LIGHTS, TOO, RIGHT? YEAH.
I'M WONDERING IF IT IS LIGHT PLAY, AND I'M HOPING THAT WE'LL GE TO WITNESS THAT RIGHT NOW, 'CAUSE THAT'LL BE -- SOUNDS COMING FROM WHAT IS THAT? IT WAS FOUR TAPS.
WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO DO ANYTHING ELSE FOR US? [ SOFT BEEP .]
What the hell was that? IT WAS, LIKE, THREE SOUNDS, LIKE, "DOOT, DOOT, DOOT.
" I DON'T KNOW WHAT -- DON'T KNOW WHERE IT CAME FROM.
IS THAT KYLE THAT'S MAKING THAT NOISE? IT'S REALLY DARK DOWN THAT HALLWAY RIGHT NOW.
IT'S OKAY TO SHOW YOURSELF TO US.
WE JUST WANT TO SEE YOU.
Dave: STEVE AND TANGO IN THE EBERLIN RESIDENCE.
Steve: DOORS OPENING AND CLOSING.
THIS DOOR IN PARTICULAR, RIGHT HERE.
SO, THIS DOOR HAS SLAMMED, OR JUST OPENED? THEY HEARD IT SLAM.
THEY'VE HEARD IT SLAM.
THEY WERE IN THIS OTHER BEDROOM.
DID WE CHECK FOR VACUUM ANYWHERE? LET'S DO IT.
WE'LL PUT THIS -- KIND OF CLOSE IT A LITTLE BIT.
OKAY.
OKAY, YOU READY? YEP.
NOTHING.
NOTHING? NOPE.
OKAY.
I'M GOING TO NOW TRY THE FRONT DOOR.
OKAY.
OKAY, YOU READY? YEP.
ANYTHING? NOTHING.
HMM.
Dave: STEVE AND I WERE INVESTIGATING THE ONE CLAIM OF DOORS SLAMMING.
THAT'S USUALLY JUS THE VACUUM EFFECT, WHICH IS BASICALLY WHEN SOMEONE OPENS UP A DOOR FROM ONE END, THE OTHER DOOR WILL CLOSE ON THE OTHER.
WE SEE IT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, BUT PEOPLE JUS AREN'T REALLY AWARE OF THAT.
BUT, YOU KNOW, NOTHING CAME OUT OF THAT.
SO WE REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT SLAMMED THAT DOOR.
K.
J.
: One sandwich coming up.
RIGHT NOW, K.
J.
AND DUSTIN ARE IN THE HOUSE, TRYING TO HAVE SIMILAR EXPERIENCES TO WHAT A COUPLE OF TEAMS HAVE EXPERIENCED TONIGHT.
I THINK IT'S IMPORTANT.
IT HELPS BRING VALIDITY TO THEIR CLAIMS.
K.
J.
: I don't know too many people that don't like peanut butter and jelly.
ONE OF THE CLAIMS HERE IN THE HOUSE IS THAT THE DAUGHTER WAS SITTING AT A DESK IN HER ROOM, AND HER SANDWICH WENT FLYING OFF OF HER DESK.
SO WE'RE GONNA SEE IF WE CAN USE THIS SANDWICH AS A TRIGGER OBJEC AND SEE IF WE CAN'T GE THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN TO US.
I BELIEVE THE SANDWICH WAS RIGHT OVER HERE ON THE EDGE.
THE GIRL WAS SITTING HERE, AND Dustin: SHE HAD SEEN A SHADOW.
SHE SAW THE REFLECTION OF THE SHADOW IN HER LAPTOP.
AND SHE TURNED TO SEE I IN THE DOORWAY, AND THEN THE SANDWICH GOT THROWN OFF THE DESK.
IT'S CRAZY.
WE NEED YOU TO KNOCK THAT SANDWICH OFF OF THE DESK RIGHT NOW.
WE NEED TO KNOW IF YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE THIS FAMILY ALONE.
THEY DON'T WAN THEIR CHILDREN TO BE HARMED, AND THEY DON'T WAN THEIR CHILDREN TO BE AFRAID.
CAN YOU UNDERSTAND THAT MUCH? [ LOUD THUMP .]
HOLY [BLEEP.]
K.
J.
: WE NEED TO KNOW IF YOU'RE GONNA LEAVE THIS FAMILY ALONE.
THEY DON'T WAN THEIR CHILDREN TO BE HARMED, AND THEY DON'T WAN THEIR CHILDREN TO BE AFRAID.
Dustin: CAN YOU UNDERSTAND THAT MUCH? [ LOUD THUMP .]
HOLY [BLEEP.]
THAT SCARED THE HELL OU OF ME.
IT WAS LIKE SOMEBODY, LIKE, SLAMMED A DOOR, LIKE A GARAGE DOOR JUST WENT LIKE, "BANG.
" THAT WAS INSANE.
I DON'T SEE ANYTHING THA LOOKS LIKE IT'S OUT OF PLACE.
IF THAT WAS YOUR WAY OF TELLING US THAT YOU CAN UNDERSTAND, LEAVE THIS FAMILY ALONE.
LET THESE KIDS SLEEP IN THEIR OWN ROOM.
LET THEM FEEL SAFE IN THEIR OWN HOUSE.
WHAT IS I THAT YOU WANT? [ CREAKING .]
SOUNDED LIKE THE DOOR.
THAT WAS THE FRONT DOOR.
THAT WAS THE DOOR.
THIS IS REALLY GETTING CRAZY.
COME ON, SERIOUSLY? YEAH.
K.
J.
: DUSTIN AND I WERE TRYING TO FIND A WAY TO CONNEC WITH WHATEVER'S HERE, AND WE'RE TALKING ABOUT MILES AND THE FACT THAT YOU KNOW, THAT HE'S SCARED.
[ BREATHES DEEPLY .]
I THINK ABOUT MY SON.
YOU KNOW, IF HE WAS SCARED, I WOULD WANT ANSWERS.
I'M JUST OVERWHELMED RIGHT NOW.
[ WALKIE-TALKIE BEEPS .]
HEY, GUYS, IT'S GETTING LATE.
LET'S GET THE LIGHTS ON.
IT'S TIME TO WRAP.
SO, WE JUST WRAPPED THE INVESTIGATION HERE AT THE EBERLIN HOUSE.
USUALLY, WE COME INTO THESE LOCATIONS BELIEVING THAT WE'RE GONNA BE ABLE TO DEBUNK MOST OF THE CLAIMS, AND TO BE SITTING THERE AND STEVE AND I BOTH HAD THE EXPERIENCE OF SEEING SOMETHING AT THE END OF THE HALL MOVING -- DEFINITELY INTERESTING.
I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO GOING THROUGH THE EVIDENCE, BUT OUR MAIN THING IS WE'RE TRYING TO HELP OU HEATHER, HER FAMILY, AND JUST TRY TO EMPOWER THEM, GIVE THEM THEIR HOUSE BACK.
TAPS HAS COME TO FAIRFIELD COUNTY, CONNECTICUT, TO HELP THE EBERLIN FAMILY FIGURE OU WHO OR WHA IS HAUNTING THEIR HOME.
WE'VE REVIEWED OUR EVIDENCE, AND NOW IT'S TIME TO SHARE IT WITH HEATHER.
Steve: THIS FIRST PIECE THAT WE HAVE HERE -- K.
J.
AND DUSTIN ARE INVESTIGATING, AND THEY DID HEAR A VOICE.
K.
J.
: WE JUST WANT TO SEE YOU.
YOU HEAR THAT VOICE UNDER HIM AS HE'S TALKING? YEAH.
WE CAN HIGHLIGH THAT SECTION.
K.
J.
: WE JUST WANT TO SEE YOU.
IS IT SAYING, "MOMMY"? DOES IT SOUND FAMILIAR TO YOU AT ALL, OR NO.
NO, WE COULDN'T REALLY MAKE OU WHAT IT WAS SAYING, BUT IT WAS JUST A VOICE THAT WAS THERE.
SO, NOW, THIS PIECE IS A LITTLE INTERESTING.
THEY WERE TALKING ABOU SOME SORT OF A SIGN -- "LET US KNOW.
" THE SOUND ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE A TOY THAT TURNS ON IN THE BACKGROUND.
SO, I KNOW YOU GUYS HAVE EXPERIENCED THAT BEFORE.
[ Chuckling .]
YES.
Dustin: WOULD YOU BE WILLING TO DO ANYTHING ELSE FOR US? YEAH, THAT'S A GOOD BEEPING.
IS THAT A SOUND YOU'VE HEARD? I CAN'T THINK, OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD, BUT THEY'VE GO A LOT OF ELECTRONIC TOYS -- TOY PHONES AND THINGS.
BUT IT'S STRANGE THAT I ONLY HAPPENED DURING THAT POINT, WHEN THEY WERE ASKING FOR SOME SORT OF A SIGN.
ALL RIGHT, WELL, NOW, THIS NEXT PIECE IS ACTUALLY A VIDEO, BUT YOU'RE GONNA BE LISTENING FOR THE SOUND ON THE VIDEO.
K.
J.
: AND THEY DON'T WAN THEIR CHILDREN TO BE AFRAID.
Dustin: CAN YOU UNDERSTAND THAT MUCH? [ LOUD THUMP .]
HOLY [BLEEP.]
YEAH, THEY THOUGHT IT SOUNDED LIKE THE BOOKSHELF HAD FALLEN OVER.
YEAH.
AND THEY LOOKED ALL AROUND.
THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING OUT OF PLACE.
NOTHING HAD MOVED.
THAT'S IN MY DAUGHTER ARIELLA'S ROOM.
YES, YEAH.
SHE ALSO HEARD A LOUD BANG FROM HER ROOM BEFORE, WHEN SHE WAS IN THE BATHROOM.
OKAY.
AND THAT'S AN EXTREMELY LOUD BANG.
NOW, DURING THE INVESTIGATION, AT ONE POINT, K.
J.
AND DUSTIN WERE ASKING, "WHAT DO YOU WANT US TO DO?" AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN, IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMEBODY WAS COMING IN THE FRONT DOOR.
SO, WE'LL PLAY THAT AUDIO FOR YOU RIGHT HERE.
WHAT IS I THAT YOU WANT? [ CHUCKLES .]
Steve: IT'S PRETTY AWESOME.
YEAH, FROM A PARANORMAL-INVESTIGATOR STANDPOINT, IT'S ONE OF THOSE, LIKE, "WOW" MOMENTS.
ALL THIS ACTIVITY SEEMED AS IF IT HAD SOME SORT OF AN INTELLIGENCE WITH IT.
SO IT'S NO A MALICIOUS THING, BUT, YEAH, IT CAN DEFINITELY HAVE YOU ON EDGE A LITTLE BIT.
THE ONLY WAY TO GET RID OF THEM IS TO SIT AROUND AS A FAMILY, JUST SAY, "THIS IS OUR HOUSE.
WE DON'T WANT YOU HERE ANYMORE.
" JUST BY DOING THAT, YOU SORT OF EMPOWER YOURSELF TO TAKE YOUR HOME BACK.
AND IF ANYTHING HAPPENS, ANY ACTIVITY PICKS UP, JUST CALL US.
WE'LL COME BACK.
THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
OH, THANK YOU.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH.
THANK YOU.
Eberlin: I'M GLAD THAT TAPS CAME OU AND WAS ABLE TO CORROBORATE THE EXPERIENCES THAT MY CHILDREN HAVE HAD, AND I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT THE TAPS TEAM FEELS THAT WHATEVER PRESENCE IS HERE IS NOT SOMETHING THAT WE SHOULD BE AFRAID OF, AND THEY'VE GIVEN US SOME IDEA OF HOW WE CAN ASK IT TO LEAVE.
WELL, THAT WENT WELL.
Steve: YEAH.
ANYTIME WE CAN HELP A FAMILY, IT'S WHY WE'RE HERE.
IT'S A GREAT JOB, MAN.
THANK YOU.
ON TO THE NEXT.
THAT'S RIGHT.
