Ghost Adventures (2008) s13e07 Episode Script
Hotel Metlen
1 There's so much going on in this hotel.
ZAK: How many people live in this building? Just me.
ZAK: Was there any murder or suicide? There was a suicide.
You're tellin' me that this exploded in the air? -For real.
-I just felt a hand on my arm.
-There's bad energy here.
-The hell was that? ZAK: Oh, my God! Billy! What the [ Whispers .]
I'm so scared.
[ Door creaking .]
ZAK: There are things in this world that we will never fully understand.
We want answers.
We have worked years to build our credibility, our reputation, working alongside the most renowned professionals in the field, capturing groundbreaking proof of the paranormal.
-It's working! -Whoa! What was that? I can't give you an explanation.
ZAK: This is our evidence, our "Ghost Adventures.
" ZAK: The Hotel Metlen in Dillon, Montana, is straight out of a Hollywood horror movie.
.
This nearly 120-year-old hotel has seen the Gold Rush, the Wild West.
And people have died in almost every single room here.
Something dark inside of this hotel has caused an employee serious bodily injury and others to lose themselves mentally.
Built by local businessman Joseph C.
Metlen in 1897, this now defunct hotel offers nothing more than an open bar and a mysterious third floor that has been locked for over 20 years.
Death and suicide are no stranger to the Metlen.
Many have made this hotel their last stop.
[ Gunshot .]
Henry, come here.
Come here.
Uh, this is Henry.
Um, he's the cutest dog in the world.
Can I sit next to you? Yeah.
Philly's a little nervous.
I am.
If Henry is part of the interview, if we include Henry, will that take some of the nerves away? I think it would, if Henry could go up there with me.
ZAK: Philly's experiences here have been so intense that she no longer likes going upstairs.
Because of this, she has recently put the hotel up for sale.
Well, let's go up there again.
-Oh! Philly, please.
ZAK: After witnessing how genuinely terrified Philly is to visit the place where a violent injury occurred, she finally agrees to take me there.
Where did this happen? Well, I was halfway down this hall.
I don't care to walk down here with these -- without any lights on in these rooms.
[ Laughs .]
So I was, uh, on my hands and knees, cuttin' in this carpet.
And I was up here for a few hours.
And I felt like somebody was behind me.
So I went to turn to look.
I saw a-a huge shadow.
As soon as I did, the knife kept going, and I cut my thigh pretty bad.
You cut your thigh? Right, 'cause I was nervous.
How big was the wound? Probably 3 or 4 inches long.
We don't know what it was.
ZAK: After hearing Philly's frightening account, it's already clear that Philly injured herself as a result of seeing this entity.
But what we want to know is, if this something influenced her to do so, does it feed off pain and blood from the living? Do you want to show us the third floor? No.
It's been locked up for20 years.
It's been locked up, locked up and sealed.
With a padlock.
You guys are welcome to go up there by yourself.
I normally don't go up there.
You honestly don't wanna go up there.
I-I really don't.
Do we have permission to open the padlock and go to the third floor and do our investigation up there? Well, Sandy said that you can, and she's making an exception.
She just wants you to be respectful Okay.
when you go up there.
Respectful to the spirits? Whatever you may find.
Okay.
ZAK: Before we unlock the infamous and forbidden third floor, we need to collect more experiences to be fully prepared for what we may encounter.
Bailey has an alarming and unique story that sent chills down my spine.
You deejay.
Used to.
All right.
So I wanna know, really, about this whole thing that happened with you.
Everything was goin' fine.
It was smooth.
It was busy, just busy, busy.
Was there a lot of people? Dance floor here was full of people.
It was like a dark cloud came over me.
And everything was gone.
I could see the empty bar.
There was nobody here.
What do you mean, "There was nobody here?" You just said it was busy.
It -- it was busy.
That's How long did this last? About 4 minutes.
That long? Yep.
So do you think that it was, like, lost time? It was 4 minutes gone.
Now, you used the -- the word "dark cloud.
" Mm-hmm.
Okay? When a dark cloud gets put over somebody, I wanna know if you just lost control of your -- of your sight, you lost control of -- of your hearing.
I lost control of my body.
What the hell? That's crazy.
Yep.
So when somebody is possessed by a spirit Mm-hmm.
I've been possessed by a spirit.
Yep.
There is no track of time.
Nope.
I'm getting chilled up just talking about this because it relives the moment that it's happened to me.
So do you think it's possible that you were possessed for those 4 minutes? It's definitely possible.
ZAK: One thing I know about possession, it elevates the existence of a wicked presence.
Now, Philly decides to open up about a very personal and yet extremely powerful paranormal story about her business partner's mother, Dorothy, who lived and died in this very room where we are sitting right now.
Can you tell me about -- And this is what I was telling you.
This is the reason why I wanted to come here.
Tell me exactly what happened when you were sitting there, eating with Dorothy and her daughter Sandy.
And there's something to do with this glass.
And we're gonna get to this in a moment.
Well, it was, uh, it was Sandy, myself, and a-a good friend of the family, Anne, went out to lunch with Dorothy.
And I knew that she was takin' us out to lunch to ask us what each of us would like to have of hers after she passed away.
So we're sittin' at the table, eating.
And she said, "Philly, what would you like of mine after I'm -- I'm no longer here?" I said, "Dorothy, I've never known anybody "that was gonna die.
"So I would like, once you pass, if you can send me a signal.
" And she said, "Philly, I'll break a glass.
" We actually discussed this.
And I said, "A glass would be fine.
" So you didn't ask her for an antique.
You didn't ask her for an expensive possession.
You asked her to come back to the hotel and break this.
What happened with the glass? Couple days after, she passed away -- This was just 2 days? Yeah.
Right.
Right after she died.
AARON: Right after.
This happened just 2 days after she died? Right.
We were -- we were in this room.
Se died in this room.
Sandy was in here, sittin' at a little table, writin' the eulogy.
And I was writin' thank you notes.
Her brother, Mike, just opened up that door.
It was so quiet.
And this is what I heard.
And it actually sounds just like this.
[ Scraping .]
And a glass just exploded.
[ Whispers .]
Wow.
So you're tellin' me that this slid and exploded in the air.
ZAK: Dorothy's occupation is clearly strong here.
This hotel was her baby.
Now I'm curious as to other peoples' experiences.
I'm curious to know if Dorothy is making herself known to others.
Tell me what you saw when you looked through this window.
I saw a white figure out on the dance floor, um, appeared to be a woman in a dress.
I didn't see, like, a definite face.
And it didn't look at me or anything.
But, um What time was this? That was about 2:30, 3:00 in the morning.
So you saw this Mm-hmm.
after Sandy's mother died.
Yes.
I never knew her mother.
Okay.
You never met her? Mnh-mnh.
Okay.
I'm just trying to piece the -- the -- the pieces together as an investigator to see if it's possible that you saw Sandy's mother, that has already been proven to give evidence from the other side.
ZAK: Two amazing encounters with what could very well be Dorothy.
And now it seems that Bailey has had one as well.
It also appears that his connection to her far exceeds the others.
You're tellin' me that she's entering your dream.
And -- here's the most crazy part, ladies and gentlemen -- you never met her.
Where do you sleep? Where do you live right now? On the second floor.
How many people live in this building? Just me.
So in your dreams, when she visits your dreams, I believe that's her spirit entering into your room.
I'm sorry, but I know you take showers up there.
Yep.
Yep.
[ Laughs .]
And who knows what else you do.
Yep.
But -- but she's here, man.
She's come into your dream and have told you "thank you" Yep.
because you're watching this place.
Yep.
We're the next caretakers.
Was there any murder or suicide? -There was a suicide.
-This is alarming.
-AARON: Dude -What was that? I'm serious.
ZAK: Everybody, it's day two of our investigation here in Dillon, Montana, at the Metlen Hotel.
There's so much going on in this hotel, so much history.
We are going to focus our investigation of going into the Hotel Metlen, meeting with Philly.
She's gonna show us some stuff that they've found hidden in the walls, that she believes is connected to some of the spirits here.
If we gather their objects and take possession of it during our investigation, those spirits are gonna come to those objects because it has their energy on it.
Their memories are imprinted in these objects.
So if you find that stuff here, hidden in the walls, and you take possession of that, those spirits are gonna come after you.
It's like a spirit lure that you're putting onto your fishing rod.
That's what we're lookin' for.
Let's go.
Yes.
Hi, Henry.
Hi, buddy.
How ya doin', Henry? Good to see ya again.
Hi.
Hi, Philly.
It's good to see you.
Wow.
Holy cow.
[ Chuckles .]
Are you kidding me, right now? So cool.
ZAK: Philly shows us a massive treasure trove of coins from the 1800s that they found buried in the walls on the first floor.
Mint shape, 1897, the year the Metlen was -- was built.
Oh, so cool.
So where -- where did these come from? In the wall.
And there's actually a hole in the wall, in the sandstone.
So it would have been a room that somebody rented and hid their stash Dude.
and then probably died or didn't come back or somethin' happened to them.
Yeah.
And that's my point exactly.
It's worth a lot to them back then.
And if they don't have it This is worth everything to them.
Yeah.
That's -- A whole handful's worth so much.
But the question is And all the silver combined The question is, why would he hide this in a wall here? Right.
If you had all this money, why would you go to a hotel and hide it in a wall? Right.
Seriously.
Try and figure this out.
Yeah.
Why would you try Well Why would you hide this in the wall at this hotel? Unless you were in trouble and had to come back.
If this was, what, stolen, maybe? Yeah.
This is what happens when you find treasure in an old, historic hotel.
What was that? What was that? I [ Laughs .]
What -- what was that, dude? What was that? I'm serious.
AARON: Wait.
Shh.
Shh.
No one move.
Does that sound like something being dragged along the wood with wheels? Yeah, right here.
Yeah.
Right here.
Right here.
It was like [ Imitates dragging sound .]
Did you hear that? PHILLY: Of course I heard that.
JAY: Henry ran over there.
Yeah.
ZAK AND AARON: And Henry ran straight over there.
in an old, historic hotel.
in an old, historic hotel.
What was that? What was that? How much square footage is the hotel? 42,000.
Okay.
So in the 42,000 square feet of this hotel, as we're standing here, talking about these coins, we hear a massive dragging sound on this floor, right here, that even caused Henry to go over there.
Where were these found? Uh, right below that wall, in the wall.
[ Laughs .]
God.
Yet again.
You always give us the info after! I rest my case.
She's like, "Oh, by the way" [ Laughs .]
[ Laughs .]
Dude, oh, my God.
No, for real, it was.
It makes so much sense.
ZAK: If the spirit here that contained these, maybe if this guy died, and these were his coins, and he knows that we have 'em right now, is he here? ZAK: While exposure to these fascinating and mysterious items is raw in my mind, it seems best to take this energy straight to the local museum and see if we can find more historical ammunition regarding this immense investigation.
Museums are a paranormal investigator's best friend, because the museums contain the information about the history.
The history is the product of the hauntings.
You have to know the history before you investigate the hauntings.
So we want to try and find out exactly who these spirits are that are haunting the Metlen Hotel.
So if we can learn about these people, then we'll get better evidence when we try and contact their spirits later on.
Hello.
Hello.
How ya doin'? I'm well, thank you.
This is the -- Whoa! [ Roars .]
[ Woman laughs .]
What the heck? [ Aaron laughing .]
Why do you do that to people? You live with what? Bears? Yeah.
In your house? In the big home, I did.
Not in the house, but right Real bears? Yeah.
Tryin' to get in.
Yep, just like that one.
But why is that right there? That -- that was a legitimate I'm scared.
That wasn't a dramatic for-camera thing.
Well, you're the only one I've ever seen be really scared.
[ Record needle scratches .]
So were you able to find any proof of any other deaths, any names? Mm-hmm.
Um, was there any murder or suicide or anything like that? There was a suicide in 1976.
A war veteran named Everett Pearson shot himself at the Metlen Hotel.
This guy that -- that committed suicide, do you know his background? He worked on ranches.
So he was a cowboy.
Yes.
Wait a minute.
What year did he die? [ Gunshot .]
What year did they find those spurs? In 1977, in a room upstairs that wasn't bein' used ZAK: Earlier, Philly showed us all the coins they found, but also a pair of mysterious spurs found in one of the rooms.
.
1977.
The year I was born.
That's just crazy to me, that this cowboy committed suicide just a year prior.
ZAK: Lynn begins to read the seemingly never-ending list of deaths connected to the Metlen.
And it's staggering.
J.
C.
Metlen, who built the hotel Robert Wing, who was also a cowboy Had a Mrs.
Week, who died in her sleep Mr.
Delk Lucy ZAK: As I listen to these names, these souls that exhaled their final breaths within these walls, I can't help but think how many of them must have wished they were with their loved ones.
But they were alone and now eternally sentenced to these rooms, a fate that has dark repercussions.
Now we've called Philly back as Billy discovered an amazing EVP that we recorded yesterday, shortly after her interview regarding Dorothy and the broken glass.
I was blown away when I heard it.
Well, I'm just gonna be honest with you.
We do a lot of EVP in every single location that we go to.
Um, we don't always walk away with EVPs.
And we don't always walk away with good EVPs.
This -- this is alarming.
Uh, it's really good.
The quality of this -- these EVPs are really good.
We thought that it's important that you listen to it, because I wanna see if you can identify a specific voice.
Dorothy, the hotel's beautiful.
[ Woman speaks indistinctly .]
Dorothy, did you really move -- Yeah.
Stop, Billy.
Yeah.
I heard that.
That sounded like Dorothy.
Shut up.
Are you serious? No, play it back.
I don't know what the pe-- what it's tryin' to say.
Are you -- I didn't mean to say "shut up.
" But I No.
That was just my natural reaction.
That -- that's crazy.
When we get EVP, a lot of our EVPs are loud whispers.
"Rah, rah, rah.
Blah, blah, rah, rah.
" This is one of the few that has vocal tone.
Dorothy, the hotel's beautiful.
[ Woman speaks indistinctly .]
"She says, 'Thanks.
'" I don't know what you guys are hearin'.
I hear, "She says, 'Thanks.
'" -AARON: That was a scream.
-ZAK: Oh, my God.
-There's bad energy here.
-Malevolent! ZAK: As night falls in the town of Dillon, Montana, we are ready for our lockdown.
Bailey, who lives and works at the Hotel Metlen, will perform the "Ghost Adventures" tradition of sealing us inside the location.
Okay, we're just gettin' ready to start our investigation.
And we're setting up X cameras.
That's why you can see the top two are still black boxes.
And, uh, our nerve center is located in Dorothy's room, the current owner's mother, who lived and died in this room.
And right over here at the bar, where we got an incredible EVP of her voice at the same spot where she flew a glass off the table.
I heard that.
That sounded like Dorothy.
Shut up.
So while we're setting up, tell everyone what just happened to you.
Jay was over here, workin' on stuff.
I was clear across the room, on my laptop.
And a whisper in my ear, it goes, "Bill.
" I thought it was Jay.
So I went to go, "What, Jay? Like, why are you whisperin' in my ear?" He was clear over here.
ZAK: Just as we are gearing up and preparing for our investigation, Jay starts frantically calling for us from nerve center as he is hearing very loud noises and unexplained voices coming from the third floor.
AARON: Let's go.
[ Thud .]
What the What the hell? Did you hear that? What was that? JAY: That was up on the third floor.
We just heard a huge, huge loud bang.
[ Shriek .]
[ Gasps .]
Whoa.
Oh, my God.
.
What was that? That was a scream.
Oh, my God.
We just heard a huge, huge loud bang.
bang.
[ Gasps .]
Whoa.
JAY: There was a crash, a scream.
ZAK AND AARON: Let's go.
Time.
We gotta go.
ZAK: So that's on the third floor, Jay? -Third floor.
-Give me a walkie.
-Good luck, Jay.
There's somethin' on that third floor.
Now you gotta remember somethin'.
This is the floor that is padlocked shut.
People haven't gone up there in decades.
This floor is left and locked for the spirits.
[ Stairs creaking .]
ZAK: Now the only person who has been in here, very briefly, earlier today, was Jay, 'cause he had to get the camera in here that's rolling right now.
-AARON: Whew.
This is so awesome right now.
I cannot wait to get inside of this floor.
I'm actually really nervous.
BILLY: I got anxiety, man.
I'm nervous as hell to get in here.
-BILLY: Yeah.
-ZAK: Key? -AARON: Key.
The key.
[ Groans .]
I just got an anomaly shooting out of there.
It -- it went right over your shoulder.
Yeah, it came out of the doorway.
ZAK: As Billy is looking at his tiny LCD screen, what he first thinks is a light anomaly is, in reality, just a flying insect.
This anomaly is debunked.
Hello, spirits? [ Music stops .]
Stop, dude.
What? Stop what? I didn't do anything.
Were you grabbing onto my arm? No.
I just was over your shoulder.
I just felt a hand on my arm, like this.
No, I didn't touch you, man.
Like, I thought you were tryin' to get me outta the way.
No.
I just had both hands -- You got me, right? BILLY: Yeah.
I got you.
I never touched you.
You weren't touchin' him.
Static comin' out of here.
You can just feel it.
ZAK: You do not like having the living come up here and disturb you.
That's why this floor is kept locked.
We're not here to tell you to leave.
This is your hotel.
However, the one person that's living in this hotel now says that something growled at him last night.
And you heard the growl? Yep, just a low grumble.
Can you come to this device [ Tap .]
that I'm holding in my hand? What was that? -I don't know, the whole -- -What the hell was that? The whole ceiling down here just cracked.
Ceiling just cracked.
[ Speaks indistinctly .]
ZAK: Oh, it says Automated female voice: "Look.
Found.
" BILLY: What did it say? "Look.
Found.
" So -- I'm getting chills.
I am, too.
I am getting So here, we just hear noise.
It sounded like somebody running above us.
that -- that I'm holding in my hand? What was that? And as soon as we hear that, we hear "Ran.
" "Look.
Found," like, as if they ran, and then they looked and found us.
Right.
ZAK: Just as I am piecing this together, we hear a smoke detector start beeping in the room next to us.
And we are unaware that this might be a spirit manipulating the device.
Can you give us another message on this device and tell us who you are or how did you die? That's gotta I hear it.
It's right here.
Okay.
ZAK: "Great Nana"! Get that! BILLY: Whoa! "Great.
Nana.
" AARON: Nana's the sound for "mom" or "grandma.
" Great Grandmother.
Yeah.
When Dorothy heard the voice, she said it sounded more like her mother Yeah.
Which would be Sandra's Great Nana, right? Right.
ZAK: Just as we received this message, "Great Nana," we make one of our best thermal captures to date.
A very cold, unexplained figure seems to walk by in front of the thermal camera, from right to left.
This blue figure contains no heat whatsoever.
Here is a split screen to of the unknown figure compared to one of us, showing the difference between the heat of the living and the cold of the dead.
This is also not the Ovilus device that I'm holding in my hand grazing in front of the camera.
Here is a split-screen comparison to rule this out as well.
Could this possibly be an old woman with her head slouched down? And is it the owner's Great Nana? We already know that the owner's mother, Dorothy, who earlier gave us incredible evidence during our interviews, and Dorothy's mother are both here in full-spirit form.
So could this be the owner's Great Nana completing a fourth generation of matriarchal hauntings? Oh, I think you're right.
I'm, like, totally chilled.
ZAK: You all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
It's the -- it's the connection between Stay -- stay there.
between the family members.
Automated female voice: Malevolent.
"Malevolent"! It just said, "Beg.
Malevolent.
" There's bad energy here, too, though.
Up -- it's up here.
If you're malevolent, then you'll know some personal stuff about us.
Can you tell us our name, or do you know how old we are? 40.
For-- 40! It just said 40! Dude, I'mshaking, scared.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
ZAK: Oh, my God, Billy! ZAK: We're on the terrifying third floor of the Hotel Metlen, and an entity is communicating personal information to us.
BILLY: Oh, my God.
Aaron is 40.
Aaron, you're 40.
I am.
Yeah.
It's calling you out.
I just said, "Tell us how old we are.
" And it said, "Forty.
" You're the only one that's 40.
Closet.
"Closet"? ZAK: Could this spirit, who is now getting personal with us, be trying to lure us to a particular location? We now begin searching for this closet.
AARON: Zak, come here.
What? Look at this.
We heard footsteps on the roof.
[ Stairs creaking .]
Look.
What the This is right by where we were.
I walked in here 'cause there's a -- Okay.
We hear this alarm going off, and we need to turn it off 'cause it's annoying.
So we're lookin' for it.
Dude, I come up here.
There's a walkway.
And it's right where we heard footsteps upstairs.
BILLY: Go ahead.
Go up.
Go up and check it out.
Oh, no, man.
Ugh.
I just feel like I'm walking up to a spirit, and he's just pissed.
Go see what is up there.
It's a room.
Dude, it's a room.
[ Loud crash .]
Oh, my God, Billy! AARON: What was that? There's something in there just moved.
Are you okay, Bill? Yeah.
Yeah.
Shook up.
We were right here.
[ Speaks indistinctly .]
I went up the stairs and then you guys heard that.
These boards moved.
Oh -- Oh, my God, Billy! What was that? You all right, Billy? No.
Dude, I'mshaking, scared.
I had my back to that.
I was filming you.
I was right here.
Billy was right here.
You were up there, Aaron.
And these boards just moved.
It was in this closet.
Wait a minute.
[ Aaron gasps .]
When we were in here, and we heard the footsteps up there, what word did we get, dude? Closet! It said, "Closet"! Remember? It did say closet! Closet.
So you're telling us something about this closet.
I'm gonna come inside the closet now and I want you to grab me.
You moved the wood.
I wanna feel your hand upon me.
You're crazy, dude.
ZAK: We are all in complete shock from experiencing direct poltergeist activity.
So our instincts tell us to turn on all of the lights in order to closely examine the closet.
What is that? AARON: I'm telling you.
My mom, she finds sticks like this and uses 'em as walking sticks all the time.
ZAK: Could this walking stick belong to the old, hunched-over figure that we captured on thermal camera only moments ago? And this isn't the only strange object we find in the closet.
Bird egg? It's an actual egg.
What's really strange is that this egg was sitting up on this piece of wood.
BILLY: Yeah.
Why? ZAK: What makes this even stranger is that while Aaron was on the next floor, directly above this closet, he discovered a dead bird in the middle of the floor.
A spirit put that bird egg there.
A bird didn't put that bird egg there.
Absolutely not.
BILLY: This is gettin' really strange.
Well, plus the dead Whoa.
Dude.
Did you feel it? Oh, my g-- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
You and I are goin' back to nerve center.
BILLY: Okay.
AARON: Wait.
No.
I don't like this already, dude.
Just I don't wanna be here alone, bro.
Face it.
You want to.
I got it.
Just try it.
[ Groans .]
I just wanna see what happens.
I want you to go and start here so we can watch you.
Not only are we leaving Aaron alone on the third floor, but I feel we should also seal him in by padlocking the door, so that his natural fear will attract the spirits even further.
[ Door thuds .]
I just want to isolate you in there because right now, when I did that, you're showing a lot of fear right now.
That fear is our bait.
Whatever energy is up here doesn't like to be disturbed.
And you can sense it.
I just have the chills every -- I am [ Whispers .]
I am so scared.
[ Oscillating static .]
Can you say a name to whoever's walking around these hallways? I just wanna talk with you.
I figured, hey, if you've been up here -- Female voice: Taken.
What was that? ZAK: A female comes through and tells Aaron that she's been taken.
I just wanna talk with you.
I figured, hey, if you've been up here -- you've been up here -- Oh, my God.
I was talking over it.
I didn't quite hear it.
Oh.
Could you please say that again? Want some? Same voice.
ZAK: Now she asks Aaron if he wants some.
AARON: Could you please say that again? again? Same voice.
You have a lovely place up here.
Who's up in -- Male voice: Be gentle.
Did you hear that? AARON: Whoa.
Who's up in -- Who's up in -- ZAK: "Taken.
" "Want Some.
" "Be gentle.
" Is Aaron capturing an intimate and possible sexual moment between this man and woman? AARON: What year is it to you? Female voice: You're welcome.
What year is it to you? to you? I'm not quite understanding what you're saying.
I need you to talk again so I can talk back.
Please.
I'm scared to have my back against these rooms.
Should I? Male voice: Yeah.
I'm scared to have my back against these rooms.
Should I? Should I? [ Oscillating static continues .]
There's somethin' right here.
We're disturbing somethin' that hasn't been disturbed in a long time.
What is your name? What?! ZAK: Aaron is locked in and alone on the ominous third floor, frightened and overwhelmed by a flood of paranormal activity.
AARON: Was there a suicide in here? Is there history? Is that correct? What is that? Oh, my God, man.
I saw you.
Are you guys upstairs? [ Oscillating static continues .]
Oh, my God, man.
I'm seein' face -- I'm h-- Oh, my God, man.
This is your only shot to really express who you are.
What's your name? [ Tapping .]
What's that, dude? Guys! Guys! ZAK: All of a sudden, Aaron and all three of us back at nerve center hear what sounds like very loud stomping sounds right next to Aaron.
What's your name? What's your name? ZAK: This sends him into a level five panic.
So Billy and I immediately head upstairs to help him out.
You all right? No.
Are you serious? What glass thing? That's what I thought.
When I came back and I moved the camera, I was like, "Wh-- why didn't we, one, step on this? And two, where the hell did it show up from?" BILLY: Let me see.
That was not there.
That was, 100%, not there.
ZAK: Could this object have caused the loud rumbling sound that Aaron heard about 10 feet away from him? This was not on the floor when we locked Aaron in here.
As you can see, we captured it where it was on this chair.
I want out of here.
Let's go, man.
Aaron.
Aaron.
I'm tellin' you, it's not good in here.
We're disturbing somethin' that hasn't been disturbed [ Whispers .]
in a long time.
ZAK: Bailey overheard growling.
He lives in this room right here.
He's the only one who lives here.
And we are going to try to make contact to try to help him to see whether or not this -- this entity is just a human spirit or something darker.
So, Billy, what are you gonna do? We're gonna use the Paranormal Puck 2.
Okay.
Bill Chappell just updated this.
We're gonna type the questions and hit enter.
We already got responses downstairs.
Awesome.
Hold on.
I got another idea.
ZAK: We are going to actually video call Bailey while we conduct this experiment because he told us that last night, he was video chatting with his sister when this terrifying growl occurred.
I hope you don't mind that we're sitting on your bed right now.
Nope.
You're good.
Don't worry.
Our butts are on the far end, not where your head goes.
If you have any questions, too, Bailey, we can transfer your questions to the device.
Okay.
And it might be cool that, if this entity hears your voice, he may be, or it may be, more susceptible to answer it.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Do -- do you like that we're up there, and I'm livin' there? BILLY: Do you like that Bailey lives here? Automated voice: Necessary.
"Necessary.
" Whoa.
Sh-- A voice came through and said, "Necessary.
" That's interesting.
Well, think about it.
Yeah.
It's necessary that you live here.
Does that make any sense? Yeah.
Absolutely.
I-I feel like it's my job to be the person that, you know, is there and -- and protects the building itself.
Okay.
Let me ask a question.
The spirit that's here now, that just answered this question, what is your name? Let's see if it's Dorothy.
ZAK: Dorothy is the owner's mother who died in this building, and she visits Bailey in his dreams in order to thank him for what he does for the hotel.
BILLY: Who are we speaking to? Help.
It says "help.
" We just said, "Who are you speaking to?" And it said, "Help.
" Let's -- let's ask what -- what we can do to help? What can I -- what can we do? Okay.
What can Bailey do to help? Phone.
"Phone.
" Phone.
[ Gasps .]
Are you serious? No! What are the chances of it saying that? I don't know.
That's exactly what we're doing.
On the phone.
And I'm on the phone with him.
"What can Bailey do to help?" "Phone.
" That's nuts.
That's weird.
I don't -- that's weird.
That's cool, though.
Like, this whole experiment is based around this phone.
[ Creaking .]
Like, that -- this is -- AARON: Whoa.
Shh.
I just heard footsteps in that room.
Like, this whole experience is based around this phone.
Like, that -- this is -- Whoa.
Shh.
I just heard footsteps in that room.
Ask the spirit, again, what is your name? I'm afraid to -- I'm afraid to push the enter button.
Hit it.
What is your name? "Tub.
" "Crossover.
" Let me ask it one more time, Zak.
What is your name? Karen.
What?! I have no energy.
ZAK: While FaceTiming with the Hotel Metlen's only resident, we have just made contact with a female spirit.
Bailey, we just got a response.
Karen.
I think we got more than just her name.
"Tub.
Crossover" could have been a suicide in a bathtub.
ZAK: Is it possible that a spirit named Karen committed suicide in the bathtub where Bailey now lives? And is she receiving help from us by communicating through this phone experiment? We're all stunned.
We can feel it.
Can you -- can you tell us what room did you cross over? I'm gonna put Karen so I'm talkin' directly to her.
Resent.
"Resent.
" "Resent.
" She resents what she did.
Damn.
That's what makes sense to me.
That's why we're all jacked up, man.
Dude, I gotta get off this -- I gotta get off this phone.
I'm, likeI don't know what's goin' on.
We need some fresh air.
I can't even stand up.
Here.
I got you.
That's what I'm sayin'.
I have no energy.
It's crazy.
ZAK: During this entire experiment, I was being used as a conduit between a spirit named Karen and Bailey, who was on the phone in my hand.
And this has taken everything out of me.
Just like in the living world, sometimes a person that needs help simply needs someone to talk to about something they resent doing.
We hope that Karen can now move on.
As our lockdown nears its conclusion, there is still one final dark, scary place left to investigate -- the basement.
We wanna send somebody down there by themselves.
So -- But we're all too scared.
[ Laughter .]
We're all too scared to go down there.
So what we're doin' is, I have four pieces of paper.
Three of 'em have X;s on it.
And one of 'em has a checkmark.
Aw, dude.
The person that gets the checkmark is the one that's going to be strapped with the chest, full-spectrum camera with no other light sources, and is gonna have to touch and feel their way down this massive basement.
All right.
Are we ready? Pick just one.
Don't look at it.
This one feels too right.
Dude, we're all seriously I don't want it! I don't want it! Ready, go.
BILLY, AARON, AND ZAK: X.
Checkmark! Jay! Checkmark! Yeah! X.
X.
X.
ZAK: Jay will now be strapped with a chest-mounted, full-spectrum camera with no flashlight as he investigate the dark, dangerous bowels of this extremely haunted hotel.
Good luck, Jay.
I'm sorry.
Bye, Jay.
Better him than me.
Better him than any of us.
JAY: I can't see anything, man.
[ Thud .]
Oh! Ow.
Aw.
[ Jay groans .]
BILLY: Dude, are you all right? Jay? [ Breathing heavily .]
ZAK: Billy runs down to help Jay, who hit his head pretty hard on the door.
After a little recovery time, Jay chooses to carry on like a trooper.
You're a warrior, Jay.
JAY: I'm tryin'.
[ Lumber shifts, thuds .]
[ Lumber crashes .]
[ Cart rattles .]
Aah! [ Groans .]
Ow.
[ Groans .]
ZAK: We're comin' down, Jay.
This is enough.
You can only watch a man fall down so many times before throwing in the towel.
Enough is enough.
And we have already been through a great deal of high-intensity moments.
Our work here is done.
And we will walk away with a few cuts and bruises, along with substantial evidence validating that multiple paranormal entities still reside at the Metlen Hotel.
ZAK: How many people live in this building? Just me.
ZAK: Was there any murder or suicide? There was a suicide.
You're tellin' me that this exploded in the air? -For real.
-I just felt a hand on my arm.
-There's bad energy here.
-The hell was that? ZAK: Oh, my God! Billy! What the [ Whispers .]
I'm so scared.
[ Door creaking .]
ZAK: There are things in this world that we will never fully understand.
We want answers.
We have worked years to build our credibility, our reputation, working alongside the most renowned professionals in the field, capturing groundbreaking proof of the paranormal.
-It's working! -Whoa! What was that? I can't give you an explanation.
ZAK: This is our evidence, our "Ghost Adventures.
" ZAK: The Hotel Metlen in Dillon, Montana, is straight out of a Hollywood horror movie.
.
This nearly 120-year-old hotel has seen the Gold Rush, the Wild West.
And people have died in almost every single room here.
Something dark inside of this hotel has caused an employee serious bodily injury and others to lose themselves mentally.
Built by local businessman Joseph C.
Metlen in 1897, this now defunct hotel offers nothing more than an open bar and a mysterious third floor that has been locked for over 20 years.
Death and suicide are no stranger to the Metlen.
Many have made this hotel their last stop.
[ Gunshot .]
Henry, come here.
Come here.
Uh, this is Henry.
Um, he's the cutest dog in the world.
Can I sit next to you? Yeah.
Philly's a little nervous.
I am.
If Henry is part of the interview, if we include Henry, will that take some of the nerves away? I think it would, if Henry could go up there with me.
ZAK: Philly's experiences here have been so intense that she no longer likes going upstairs.
Because of this, she has recently put the hotel up for sale.
Well, let's go up there again.
-Oh! Philly, please.
ZAK: After witnessing how genuinely terrified Philly is to visit the place where a violent injury occurred, she finally agrees to take me there.
Where did this happen? Well, I was halfway down this hall.
I don't care to walk down here with these -- without any lights on in these rooms.
[ Laughs .]
So I was, uh, on my hands and knees, cuttin' in this carpet.
And I was up here for a few hours.
And I felt like somebody was behind me.
So I went to turn to look.
I saw a-a huge shadow.
As soon as I did, the knife kept going, and I cut my thigh pretty bad.
You cut your thigh? Right, 'cause I was nervous.
How big was the wound? Probably 3 or 4 inches long.
We don't know what it was.
ZAK: After hearing Philly's frightening account, it's already clear that Philly injured herself as a result of seeing this entity.
But what we want to know is, if this something influenced her to do so, does it feed off pain and blood from the living? Do you want to show us the third floor? No.
It's been locked up for20 years.
It's been locked up, locked up and sealed.
With a padlock.
You guys are welcome to go up there by yourself.
I normally don't go up there.
You honestly don't wanna go up there.
I-I really don't.
Do we have permission to open the padlock and go to the third floor and do our investigation up there? Well, Sandy said that you can, and she's making an exception.
She just wants you to be respectful Okay.
when you go up there.
Respectful to the spirits? Whatever you may find.
Okay.
ZAK: Before we unlock the infamous and forbidden third floor, we need to collect more experiences to be fully prepared for what we may encounter.
Bailey has an alarming and unique story that sent chills down my spine.
You deejay.
Used to.
All right.
So I wanna know, really, about this whole thing that happened with you.
Everything was goin' fine.
It was smooth.
It was busy, just busy, busy.
Was there a lot of people? Dance floor here was full of people.
It was like a dark cloud came over me.
And everything was gone.
I could see the empty bar.
There was nobody here.
What do you mean, "There was nobody here?" You just said it was busy.
It -- it was busy.
That's How long did this last? About 4 minutes.
That long? Yep.
So do you think that it was, like, lost time? It was 4 minutes gone.
Now, you used the -- the word "dark cloud.
" Mm-hmm.
Okay? When a dark cloud gets put over somebody, I wanna know if you just lost control of your -- of your sight, you lost control of -- of your hearing.
I lost control of my body.
What the hell? That's crazy.
Yep.
So when somebody is possessed by a spirit Mm-hmm.
I've been possessed by a spirit.
Yep.
There is no track of time.
Nope.
I'm getting chilled up just talking about this because it relives the moment that it's happened to me.
So do you think it's possible that you were possessed for those 4 minutes? It's definitely possible.
ZAK: One thing I know about possession, it elevates the existence of a wicked presence.
Now, Philly decides to open up about a very personal and yet extremely powerful paranormal story about her business partner's mother, Dorothy, who lived and died in this very room where we are sitting right now.
Can you tell me about -- And this is what I was telling you.
This is the reason why I wanted to come here.
Tell me exactly what happened when you were sitting there, eating with Dorothy and her daughter Sandy.
And there's something to do with this glass.
And we're gonna get to this in a moment.
Well, it was, uh, it was Sandy, myself, and a-a good friend of the family, Anne, went out to lunch with Dorothy.
And I knew that she was takin' us out to lunch to ask us what each of us would like to have of hers after she passed away.
So we're sittin' at the table, eating.
And she said, "Philly, what would you like of mine after I'm -- I'm no longer here?" I said, "Dorothy, I've never known anybody "that was gonna die.
"So I would like, once you pass, if you can send me a signal.
" And she said, "Philly, I'll break a glass.
" We actually discussed this.
And I said, "A glass would be fine.
" So you didn't ask her for an antique.
You didn't ask her for an expensive possession.
You asked her to come back to the hotel and break this.
What happened with the glass? Couple days after, she passed away -- This was just 2 days? Yeah.
Right.
Right after she died.
AARON: Right after.
This happened just 2 days after she died? Right.
We were -- we were in this room.
Se died in this room.
Sandy was in here, sittin' at a little table, writin' the eulogy.
And I was writin' thank you notes.
Her brother, Mike, just opened up that door.
It was so quiet.
And this is what I heard.
And it actually sounds just like this.
[ Scraping .]
And a glass just exploded.
[ Whispers .]
Wow.
So you're tellin' me that this slid and exploded in the air.
ZAK: Dorothy's occupation is clearly strong here.
This hotel was her baby.
Now I'm curious as to other peoples' experiences.
I'm curious to know if Dorothy is making herself known to others.
Tell me what you saw when you looked through this window.
I saw a white figure out on the dance floor, um, appeared to be a woman in a dress.
I didn't see, like, a definite face.
And it didn't look at me or anything.
But, um What time was this? That was about 2:30, 3:00 in the morning.
So you saw this Mm-hmm.
after Sandy's mother died.
Yes.
I never knew her mother.
Okay.
You never met her? Mnh-mnh.
Okay.
I'm just trying to piece the -- the -- the pieces together as an investigator to see if it's possible that you saw Sandy's mother, that has already been proven to give evidence from the other side.
ZAK: Two amazing encounters with what could very well be Dorothy.
And now it seems that Bailey has had one as well.
It also appears that his connection to her far exceeds the others.
You're tellin' me that she's entering your dream.
And -- here's the most crazy part, ladies and gentlemen -- you never met her.
Where do you sleep? Where do you live right now? On the second floor.
How many people live in this building? Just me.
So in your dreams, when she visits your dreams, I believe that's her spirit entering into your room.
I'm sorry, but I know you take showers up there.
Yep.
Yep.
[ Laughs .]
And who knows what else you do.
Yep.
But -- but she's here, man.
She's come into your dream and have told you "thank you" Yep.
because you're watching this place.
Yep.
We're the next caretakers.
Was there any murder or suicide? -There was a suicide.
-This is alarming.
-AARON: Dude -What was that? I'm serious.
ZAK: Everybody, it's day two of our investigation here in Dillon, Montana, at the Metlen Hotel.
There's so much going on in this hotel, so much history.
We are going to focus our investigation of going into the Hotel Metlen, meeting with Philly.
She's gonna show us some stuff that they've found hidden in the walls, that she believes is connected to some of the spirits here.
If we gather their objects and take possession of it during our investigation, those spirits are gonna come to those objects because it has their energy on it.
Their memories are imprinted in these objects.
So if you find that stuff here, hidden in the walls, and you take possession of that, those spirits are gonna come after you.
It's like a spirit lure that you're putting onto your fishing rod.
That's what we're lookin' for.
Let's go.
Yes.
Hi, Henry.
Hi, buddy.
How ya doin', Henry? Good to see ya again.
Hi.
Hi, Philly.
It's good to see you.
Wow.
Holy cow.
[ Chuckles .]
Are you kidding me, right now? So cool.
ZAK: Philly shows us a massive treasure trove of coins from the 1800s that they found buried in the walls on the first floor.
Mint shape, 1897, the year the Metlen was -- was built.
Oh, so cool.
So where -- where did these come from? In the wall.
And there's actually a hole in the wall, in the sandstone.
So it would have been a room that somebody rented and hid their stash Dude.
and then probably died or didn't come back or somethin' happened to them.
Yeah.
And that's my point exactly.
It's worth a lot to them back then.
And if they don't have it This is worth everything to them.
Yeah.
That's -- A whole handful's worth so much.
But the question is And all the silver combined The question is, why would he hide this in a wall here? Right.
If you had all this money, why would you go to a hotel and hide it in a wall? Right.
Seriously.
Try and figure this out.
Yeah.
Why would you try Well Why would you hide this in the wall at this hotel? Unless you were in trouble and had to come back.
If this was, what, stolen, maybe? Yeah.
This is what happens when you find treasure in an old, historic hotel.
What was that? What was that? I [ Laughs .]
What -- what was that, dude? What was that? I'm serious.
AARON: Wait.
Shh.
Shh.
No one move.
Does that sound like something being dragged along the wood with wheels? Yeah, right here.
Yeah.
Right here.
Right here.
It was like [ Imitates dragging sound .]
Did you hear that? PHILLY: Of course I heard that.
JAY: Henry ran over there.
Yeah.
ZAK AND AARON: And Henry ran straight over there.
in an old, historic hotel.
in an old, historic hotel.
What was that? What was that? How much square footage is the hotel? 42,000.
Okay.
So in the 42,000 square feet of this hotel, as we're standing here, talking about these coins, we hear a massive dragging sound on this floor, right here, that even caused Henry to go over there.
Where were these found? Uh, right below that wall, in the wall.
[ Laughs .]
God.
Yet again.
You always give us the info after! I rest my case.
She's like, "Oh, by the way" [ Laughs .]
[ Laughs .]
Dude, oh, my God.
No, for real, it was.
It makes so much sense.
ZAK: If the spirit here that contained these, maybe if this guy died, and these were his coins, and he knows that we have 'em right now, is he here? ZAK: While exposure to these fascinating and mysterious items is raw in my mind, it seems best to take this energy straight to the local museum and see if we can find more historical ammunition regarding this immense investigation.
Museums are a paranormal investigator's best friend, because the museums contain the information about the history.
The history is the product of the hauntings.
You have to know the history before you investigate the hauntings.
So we want to try and find out exactly who these spirits are that are haunting the Metlen Hotel.
So if we can learn about these people, then we'll get better evidence when we try and contact their spirits later on.
Hello.
Hello.
How ya doin'? I'm well, thank you.
This is the -- Whoa! [ Roars .]
[ Woman laughs .]
What the heck? [ Aaron laughing .]
Why do you do that to people? You live with what? Bears? Yeah.
In your house? In the big home, I did.
Not in the house, but right Real bears? Yeah.
Tryin' to get in.
Yep, just like that one.
But why is that right there? That -- that was a legitimate I'm scared.
That wasn't a dramatic for-camera thing.
Well, you're the only one I've ever seen be really scared.
[ Record needle scratches .]
So were you able to find any proof of any other deaths, any names? Mm-hmm.
Um, was there any murder or suicide or anything like that? There was a suicide in 1976.
A war veteran named Everett Pearson shot himself at the Metlen Hotel.
This guy that -- that committed suicide, do you know his background? He worked on ranches.
So he was a cowboy.
Yes.
Wait a minute.
What year did he die? [ Gunshot .]
What year did they find those spurs? In 1977, in a room upstairs that wasn't bein' used ZAK: Earlier, Philly showed us all the coins they found, but also a pair of mysterious spurs found in one of the rooms.
.
1977.
The year I was born.
That's just crazy to me, that this cowboy committed suicide just a year prior.
ZAK: Lynn begins to read the seemingly never-ending list of deaths connected to the Metlen.
And it's staggering.
J.
C.
Metlen, who built the hotel Robert Wing, who was also a cowboy Had a Mrs.
Week, who died in her sleep Mr.
Delk Lucy ZAK: As I listen to these names, these souls that exhaled their final breaths within these walls, I can't help but think how many of them must have wished they were with their loved ones.
But they were alone and now eternally sentenced to these rooms, a fate that has dark repercussions.
Now we've called Philly back as Billy discovered an amazing EVP that we recorded yesterday, shortly after her interview regarding Dorothy and the broken glass.
I was blown away when I heard it.
Well, I'm just gonna be honest with you.
We do a lot of EVP in every single location that we go to.
Um, we don't always walk away with EVPs.
And we don't always walk away with good EVPs.
This -- this is alarming.
Uh, it's really good.
The quality of this -- these EVPs are really good.
We thought that it's important that you listen to it, because I wanna see if you can identify a specific voice.
Dorothy, the hotel's beautiful.
[ Woman speaks indistinctly .]
Dorothy, did you really move -- Yeah.
Stop, Billy.
Yeah.
I heard that.
That sounded like Dorothy.
Shut up.
Are you serious? No, play it back.
I don't know what the pe-- what it's tryin' to say.
Are you -- I didn't mean to say "shut up.
" But I No.
That was just my natural reaction.
That -- that's crazy.
When we get EVP, a lot of our EVPs are loud whispers.
"Rah, rah, rah.
Blah, blah, rah, rah.
" This is one of the few that has vocal tone.
Dorothy, the hotel's beautiful.
[ Woman speaks indistinctly .]
"She says, 'Thanks.
'" I don't know what you guys are hearin'.
I hear, "She says, 'Thanks.
'" -AARON: That was a scream.
-ZAK: Oh, my God.
-There's bad energy here.
-Malevolent! ZAK: As night falls in the town of Dillon, Montana, we are ready for our lockdown.
Bailey, who lives and works at the Hotel Metlen, will perform the "Ghost Adventures" tradition of sealing us inside the location.
Okay, we're just gettin' ready to start our investigation.
And we're setting up X cameras.
That's why you can see the top two are still black boxes.
And, uh, our nerve center is located in Dorothy's room, the current owner's mother, who lived and died in this room.
And right over here at the bar, where we got an incredible EVP of her voice at the same spot where she flew a glass off the table.
I heard that.
That sounded like Dorothy.
Shut up.
So while we're setting up, tell everyone what just happened to you.
Jay was over here, workin' on stuff.
I was clear across the room, on my laptop.
And a whisper in my ear, it goes, "Bill.
" I thought it was Jay.
So I went to go, "What, Jay? Like, why are you whisperin' in my ear?" He was clear over here.
ZAK: Just as we are gearing up and preparing for our investigation, Jay starts frantically calling for us from nerve center as he is hearing very loud noises and unexplained voices coming from the third floor.
AARON: Let's go.
[ Thud .]
What the What the hell? Did you hear that? What was that? JAY: That was up on the third floor.
We just heard a huge, huge loud bang.
[ Shriek .]
[ Gasps .]
Whoa.
Oh, my God.
.
What was that? That was a scream.
Oh, my God.
We just heard a huge, huge loud bang.
bang.
[ Gasps .]
Whoa.
JAY: There was a crash, a scream.
ZAK AND AARON: Let's go.
Time.
We gotta go.
ZAK: So that's on the third floor, Jay? -Third floor.
-Give me a walkie.
-Good luck, Jay.
There's somethin' on that third floor.
Now you gotta remember somethin'.
This is the floor that is padlocked shut.
People haven't gone up there in decades.
This floor is left and locked for the spirits.
[ Stairs creaking .]
ZAK: Now the only person who has been in here, very briefly, earlier today, was Jay, 'cause he had to get the camera in here that's rolling right now.
-AARON: Whew.
This is so awesome right now.
I cannot wait to get inside of this floor.
I'm actually really nervous.
BILLY: I got anxiety, man.
I'm nervous as hell to get in here.
-BILLY: Yeah.
-ZAK: Key? -AARON: Key.
The key.
[ Groans .]
I just got an anomaly shooting out of there.
It -- it went right over your shoulder.
Yeah, it came out of the doorway.
ZAK: As Billy is looking at his tiny LCD screen, what he first thinks is a light anomaly is, in reality, just a flying insect.
This anomaly is debunked.
Hello, spirits? [ Music stops .]
Stop, dude.
What? Stop what? I didn't do anything.
Were you grabbing onto my arm? No.
I just was over your shoulder.
I just felt a hand on my arm, like this.
No, I didn't touch you, man.
Like, I thought you were tryin' to get me outta the way.
No.
I just had both hands -- You got me, right? BILLY: Yeah.
I got you.
I never touched you.
You weren't touchin' him.
Static comin' out of here.
You can just feel it.
ZAK: You do not like having the living come up here and disturb you.
That's why this floor is kept locked.
We're not here to tell you to leave.
This is your hotel.
However, the one person that's living in this hotel now says that something growled at him last night.
And you heard the growl? Yep, just a low grumble.
Can you come to this device [ Tap .]
that I'm holding in my hand? What was that? -I don't know, the whole -- -What the hell was that? The whole ceiling down here just cracked.
Ceiling just cracked.
[ Speaks indistinctly .]
ZAK: Oh, it says Automated female voice: "Look.
Found.
" BILLY: What did it say? "Look.
Found.
" So -- I'm getting chills.
I am, too.
I am getting So here, we just hear noise.
It sounded like somebody running above us.
that -- that I'm holding in my hand? What was that? And as soon as we hear that, we hear "Ran.
" "Look.
Found," like, as if they ran, and then they looked and found us.
Right.
ZAK: Just as I am piecing this together, we hear a smoke detector start beeping in the room next to us.
And we are unaware that this might be a spirit manipulating the device.
Can you give us another message on this device and tell us who you are or how did you die? That's gotta I hear it.
It's right here.
Okay.
ZAK: "Great Nana"! Get that! BILLY: Whoa! "Great.
Nana.
" AARON: Nana's the sound for "mom" or "grandma.
" Great Grandmother.
Yeah.
When Dorothy heard the voice, she said it sounded more like her mother Yeah.
Which would be Sandra's Great Nana, right? Right.
ZAK: Just as we received this message, "Great Nana," we make one of our best thermal captures to date.
A very cold, unexplained figure seems to walk by in front of the thermal camera, from right to left.
This blue figure contains no heat whatsoever.
Here is a split screen to of the unknown figure compared to one of us, showing the difference between the heat of the living and the cold of the dead.
This is also not the Ovilus device that I'm holding in my hand grazing in front of the camera.
Here is a split-screen comparison to rule this out as well.
Could this possibly be an old woman with her head slouched down? And is it the owner's Great Nana? We already know that the owner's mother, Dorothy, who earlier gave us incredible evidence during our interviews, and Dorothy's mother are both here in full-spirit form.
So could this be the owner's Great Nana completing a fourth generation of matriarchal hauntings? Oh, I think you're right.
I'm, like, totally chilled.
ZAK: You all right? Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
It's the -- it's the connection between Stay -- stay there.
between the family members.
Automated female voice: Malevolent.
"Malevolent"! It just said, "Beg.
Malevolent.
" There's bad energy here, too, though.
Up -- it's up here.
If you're malevolent, then you'll know some personal stuff about us.
Can you tell us our name, or do you know how old we are? 40.
For-- 40! It just said 40! Dude, I'mshaking, scared.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
ZAK: Oh, my God, Billy! ZAK: We're on the terrifying third floor of the Hotel Metlen, and an entity is communicating personal information to us.
BILLY: Oh, my God.
Aaron is 40.
Aaron, you're 40.
I am.
Yeah.
It's calling you out.
I just said, "Tell us how old we are.
" And it said, "Forty.
" You're the only one that's 40.
Closet.
"Closet"? ZAK: Could this spirit, who is now getting personal with us, be trying to lure us to a particular location? We now begin searching for this closet.
AARON: Zak, come here.
What? Look at this.
We heard footsteps on the roof.
[ Stairs creaking .]
Look.
What the This is right by where we were.
I walked in here 'cause there's a -- Okay.
We hear this alarm going off, and we need to turn it off 'cause it's annoying.
So we're lookin' for it.
Dude, I come up here.
There's a walkway.
And it's right where we heard footsteps upstairs.
BILLY: Go ahead.
Go up.
Go up and check it out.
Oh, no, man.
Ugh.
I just feel like I'm walking up to a spirit, and he's just pissed.
Go see what is up there.
It's a room.
Dude, it's a room.
[ Loud crash .]
Oh, my God, Billy! AARON: What was that? There's something in there just moved.
Are you okay, Bill? Yeah.
Yeah.
Shook up.
We were right here.
[ Speaks indistinctly .]
I went up the stairs and then you guys heard that.
These boards moved.
Oh -- Oh, my God, Billy! What was that? You all right, Billy? No.
Dude, I'mshaking, scared.
I had my back to that.
I was filming you.
I was right here.
Billy was right here.
You were up there, Aaron.
And these boards just moved.
It was in this closet.
Wait a minute.
[ Aaron gasps .]
When we were in here, and we heard the footsteps up there, what word did we get, dude? Closet! It said, "Closet"! Remember? It did say closet! Closet.
So you're telling us something about this closet.
I'm gonna come inside the closet now and I want you to grab me.
You moved the wood.
I wanna feel your hand upon me.
You're crazy, dude.
ZAK: We are all in complete shock from experiencing direct poltergeist activity.
So our instincts tell us to turn on all of the lights in order to closely examine the closet.
What is that? AARON: I'm telling you.
My mom, she finds sticks like this and uses 'em as walking sticks all the time.
ZAK: Could this walking stick belong to the old, hunched-over figure that we captured on thermal camera only moments ago? And this isn't the only strange object we find in the closet.
Bird egg? It's an actual egg.
What's really strange is that this egg was sitting up on this piece of wood.
BILLY: Yeah.
Why? ZAK: What makes this even stranger is that while Aaron was on the next floor, directly above this closet, he discovered a dead bird in the middle of the floor.
A spirit put that bird egg there.
A bird didn't put that bird egg there.
Absolutely not.
BILLY: This is gettin' really strange.
Well, plus the dead Whoa.
Dude.
Did you feel it? Oh, my g-- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
Whoa.
You and I are goin' back to nerve center.
BILLY: Okay.
AARON: Wait.
No.
I don't like this already, dude.
Just I don't wanna be here alone, bro.
Face it.
You want to.
I got it.
Just try it.
[ Groans .]
I just wanna see what happens.
I want you to go and start here so we can watch you.
Not only are we leaving Aaron alone on the third floor, but I feel we should also seal him in by padlocking the door, so that his natural fear will attract the spirits even further.
[ Door thuds .]
I just want to isolate you in there because right now, when I did that, you're showing a lot of fear right now.
That fear is our bait.
Whatever energy is up here doesn't like to be disturbed.
And you can sense it.
I just have the chills every -- I am [ Whispers .]
I am so scared.
[ Oscillating static .]
Can you say a name to whoever's walking around these hallways? I just wanna talk with you.
I figured, hey, if you've been up here -- Female voice: Taken.
What was that? ZAK: A female comes through and tells Aaron that she's been taken.
I just wanna talk with you.
I figured, hey, if you've been up here -- you've been up here -- Oh, my God.
I was talking over it.
I didn't quite hear it.
Oh.
Could you please say that again? Want some? Same voice.
ZAK: Now she asks Aaron if he wants some.
AARON: Could you please say that again? again? Same voice.
You have a lovely place up here.
Who's up in -- Male voice: Be gentle.
Did you hear that? AARON: Whoa.
Who's up in -- Who's up in -- ZAK: "Taken.
" "Want Some.
" "Be gentle.
" Is Aaron capturing an intimate and possible sexual moment between this man and woman? AARON: What year is it to you? Female voice: You're welcome.
What year is it to you? to you? I'm not quite understanding what you're saying.
I need you to talk again so I can talk back.
Please.
I'm scared to have my back against these rooms.
Should I? Male voice: Yeah.
I'm scared to have my back against these rooms.
Should I? Should I? [ Oscillating static continues .]
There's somethin' right here.
We're disturbing somethin' that hasn't been disturbed in a long time.
What is your name? What?! ZAK: Aaron is locked in and alone on the ominous third floor, frightened and overwhelmed by a flood of paranormal activity.
AARON: Was there a suicide in here? Is there history? Is that correct? What is that? Oh, my God, man.
I saw you.
Are you guys upstairs? [ Oscillating static continues .]
Oh, my God, man.
I'm seein' face -- I'm h-- Oh, my God, man.
This is your only shot to really express who you are.
What's your name? [ Tapping .]
What's that, dude? Guys! Guys! ZAK: All of a sudden, Aaron and all three of us back at nerve center hear what sounds like very loud stomping sounds right next to Aaron.
What's your name? What's your name? ZAK: This sends him into a level five panic.
So Billy and I immediately head upstairs to help him out.
You all right? No.
Are you serious? What glass thing? That's what I thought.
When I came back and I moved the camera, I was like, "Wh-- why didn't we, one, step on this? And two, where the hell did it show up from?" BILLY: Let me see.
That was not there.
That was, 100%, not there.
ZAK: Could this object have caused the loud rumbling sound that Aaron heard about 10 feet away from him? This was not on the floor when we locked Aaron in here.
As you can see, we captured it where it was on this chair.
I want out of here.
Let's go, man.
Aaron.
Aaron.
I'm tellin' you, it's not good in here.
We're disturbing somethin' that hasn't been disturbed [ Whispers .]
in a long time.
ZAK: Bailey overheard growling.
He lives in this room right here.
He's the only one who lives here.
And we are going to try to make contact to try to help him to see whether or not this -- this entity is just a human spirit or something darker.
So, Billy, what are you gonna do? We're gonna use the Paranormal Puck 2.
Okay.
Bill Chappell just updated this.
We're gonna type the questions and hit enter.
We already got responses downstairs.
Awesome.
Hold on.
I got another idea.
ZAK: We are going to actually video call Bailey while we conduct this experiment because he told us that last night, he was video chatting with his sister when this terrifying growl occurred.
I hope you don't mind that we're sitting on your bed right now.
Nope.
You're good.
Don't worry.
Our butts are on the far end, not where your head goes.
If you have any questions, too, Bailey, we can transfer your questions to the device.
Okay.
And it might be cool that, if this entity hears your voice, he may be, or it may be, more susceptible to answer it.
Yeah.
Absolutely.
Do -- do you like that we're up there, and I'm livin' there? BILLY: Do you like that Bailey lives here? Automated voice: Necessary.
"Necessary.
" Whoa.
Sh-- A voice came through and said, "Necessary.
" That's interesting.
Well, think about it.
Yeah.
It's necessary that you live here.
Does that make any sense? Yeah.
Absolutely.
I-I feel like it's my job to be the person that, you know, is there and -- and protects the building itself.
Okay.
Let me ask a question.
The spirit that's here now, that just answered this question, what is your name? Let's see if it's Dorothy.
ZAK: Dorothy is the owner's mother who died in this building, and she visits Bailey in his dreams in order to thank him for what he does for the hotel.
BILLY: Who are we speaking to? Help.
It says "help.
" We just said, "Who are you speaking to?" And it said, "Help.
" Let's -- let's ask what -- what we can do to help? What can I -- what can we do? Okay.
What can Bailey do to help? Phone.
"Phone.
" Phone.
[ Gasps .]
Are you serious? No! What are the chances of it saying that? I don't know.
That's exactly what we're doing.
On the phone.
And I'm on the phone with him.
"What can Bailey do to help?" "Phone.
" That's nuts.
That's weird.
I don't -- that's weird.
That's cool, though.
Like, this whole experiment is based around this phone.
[ Creaking .]
Like, that -- this is -- AARON: Whoa.
Shh.
I just heard footsteps in that room.
Like, this whole experience is based around this phone.
Like, that -- this is -- Whoa.
Shh.
I just heard footsteps in that room.
Ask the spirit, again, what is your name? I'm afraid to -- I'm afraid to push the enter button.
Hit it.
What is your name? "Tub.
" "Crossover.
" Let me ask it one more time, Zak.
What is your name? Karen.
What?! I have no energy.
ZAK: While FaceTiming with the Hotel Metlen's only resident, we have just made contact with a female spirit.
Bailey, we just got a response.
Karen.
I think we got more than just her name.
"Tub.
Crossover" could have been a suicide in a bathtub.
ZAK: Is it possible that a spirit named Karen committed suicide in the bathtub where Bailey now lives? And is she receiving help from us by communicating through this phone experiment? We're all stunned.
We can feel it.
Can you -- can you tell us what room did you cross over? I'm gonna put Karen so I'm talkin' directly to her.
Resent.
"Resent.
" "Resent.
" She resents what she did.
Damn.
That's what makes sense to me.
That's why we're all jacked up, man.
Dude, I gotta get off this -- I gotta get off this phone.
I'm, likeI don't know what's goin' on.
We need some fresh air.
I can't even stand up.
Here.
I got you.
That's what I'm sayin'.
I have no energy.
It's crazy.
ZAK: During this entire experiment, I was being used as a conduit between a spirit named Karen and Bailey, who was on the phone in my hand.
And this has taken everything out of me.
Just like in the living world, sometimes a person that needs help simply needs someone to talk to about something they resent doing.
We hope that Karen can now move on.
As our lockdown nears its conclusion, there is still one final dark, scary place left to investigate -- the basement.
We wanna send somebody down there by themselves.
So -- But we're all too scared.
[ Laughter .]
We're all too scared to go down there.
So what we're doin' is, I have four pieces of paper.
Three of 'em have X;s on it.
And one of 'em has a checkmark.
Aw, dude.
The person that gets the checkmark is the one that's going to be strapped with the chest, full-spectrum camera with no other light sources, and is gonna have to touch and feel their way down this massive basement.
All right.
Are we ready? Pick just one.
Don't look at it.
This one feels too right.
Dude, we're all seriously I don't want it! I don't want it! Ready, go.
BILLY, AARON, AND ZAK: X.
Checkmark! Jay! Checkmark! Yeah! X.
X.
X.
ZAK: Jay will now be strapped with a chest-mounted, full-spectrum camera with no flashlight as he investigate the dark, dangerous bowels of this extremely haunted hotel.
Good luck, Jay.
I'm sorry.
Bye, Jay.
Better him than me.
Better him than any of us.
JAY: I can't see anything, man.
[ Thud .]
Oh! Ow.
Aw.
[ Jay groans .]
BILLY: Dude, are you all right? Jay? [ Breathing heavily .]
ZAK: Billy runs down to help Jay, who hit his head pretty hard on the door.
After a little recovery time, Jay chooses to carry on like a trooper.
You're a warrior, Jay.
JAY: I'm tryin'.
[ Lumber shifts, thuds .]
[ Lumber crashes .]
[ Cart rattles .]
Aah! [ Groans .]
Ow.
[ Groans .]
ZAK: We're comin' down, Jay.
This is enough.
You can only watch a man fall down so many times before throwing in the towel.
Enough is enough.
And we have already been through a great deal of high-intensity moments.
Our work here is done.
And we will walk away with a few cuts and bruises, along with substantial evidence validating that multiple paranormal entities still reside at the Metlen Hotel.
