[Zak reading]
Iconic American author John Steinbeck,
who wrote Of Mice and Men, The Grapes of Wrath,
East of Eden,
he wrote that to a friend
just after his mother died in this house.
[John echoing] The house in Salinas is pretty haunted now.
I see things walking at nigh
that it is not good to see.
[Zak] There are things in this wor
-that we will never fully understand. -[echoing] 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 pro of the paranormal.
-It's working. -Whoa!
I can't give you an explanation.
[Zak] This is our evidence, our Ghost Adventures.
Something about this house is extra special,
extra dark, and infused
with the energy of a mind so creative
that anything beyond the imagination
is possible inside of here.
[Zak] Nobel and Pulitzer Prize winning author
John Steinbeck was born in this house in 1902,
and then watched his mother Olive suffer
and die here in 1934.
There have been multiple reports,
including by Steinbeck himself,
of a disturbing presence in the house,
which is now a museum and restaurant.
I meet first with Steinbeck House docent
Dale Bartoletti,
to talk about what Steinbec might have seen lurking here
I'm kind of puzzled by that quote that he wrote
of seeing things walking in this house
that he should not see.
Usually, when you say something like that,
you're talking about some kind of spiritual entity
-or something. -Mm-hmm.
[Zak] As Dale agrees with my point, we capture something strange
Watch as an unexplained shad actually moves the tableclot
as it manifests in the empt dining room behind Dale.
I just feel like him talking about this very house and how haunted it is
and him seeing things walking in this house that he should not see.
Did he see something in this house that truly terrified him?
Something darker?
As long as I've spent in this house,
and as much as I know about John Steinbeck,
I can't answer that question.
The man's mind was so different from anyone else's.
And that's why this investigation is so mysterious,
interesting, and exhilarating.
[Dale] The only description that I've ever read of something
that he saw was at the time of his mother's death.
His mother died here in the house.
She got ill, she was taken to the hospital,
suffered a stroke, was there for quite a while
and was finally sent home.
By that time, she was half paralyzed, bedridden.
So, John and his first wife Carol
move back into the house just to help take care of her.
-Back into here? -Yeah.
That was a very grim time, she was just there to die.
During that time, he was sitting outside
the room that she died in.
At one point, he said that he saw
a translucent shaft of ligh
and appeared to be looking down at her.
After she died, he and his father were sitting
here in the living room, and that shaft of light
came through the room, turned, went into the dining room,
and then on to the kitchen.
-In this very room? -In this very room.
And he actually wrote that eyewitness account.
He did, he did.
That's pretty remarkable that one of the most notable
and iconic authors in American history would write
-a true account of a haunting. -Mm-hmm.
[Zak] In 1972,
when the building was used as a boarding house
for young women,
a local newspaper interviewe one occupant
who was awakened by a simila unexplainable bright light
and another who was terrifie by a 6' tall,
white-haired apparition.
Dale tells us that the restaurant chef Augie Rodriguez
feels a presence here and doesn't like to leave the kitchen area.
When I'm alone and if I walk to any of these rooms,
I just feel the presence of somebody right behind me.
A-- And I can feel it really, really, really, really bad.
And when it's very close to me,
even my skin is, like-- you know, pops like...
[Zak] Earlier, Dale told me about a seven-year-old visit
who had an encounter with something taking the shape of a little girl.
I had heard that story several times from several of
the many volunteers who work here.
He saw a figure, he describes it as a girl in a blue mist.
Ready?
[Zak] I contact Zachary Willis and his mother Dina
via video chat.
So who is this? Is this Zachary?
Yes, this is me.
This is you. Hey, you have cool name.
-The best name. -I like your name
So, Zachary, let me ask you a question.
Did you see something here that was like, uh,
something that was kind of strange?
-Yes. -Okay.
Dina, were you with him when this happened?
Yeah, we were having lunch and he looks at me
and he says, "Mommy, how'd that little girl
get up there on top of the picture?"
I just was, like, "Well, I don't--
I don't see anything up ther honey."
I didn't know what it was, it was just completely blue
The legs, the body, the arms the hair.
[Zak] Zachary now gives me a particularly chilling deta
about the girl's face.
The eyes were pitch black.
-The eyes were black? -Just black.
[Zak] We move to the room where Zachary saw the blue figure
and find Dale doing some office work.
-Is this the photo he was talking about? -[Dale speaking]
Okay. And he was seeing the figure above this picture.
-[Dale speaking] -Okay.
And do you know what room John Steinbeck's
-mother died in? -[Dale speaking]
-This is it? -[Dale speaking]
That's a pretty eerie coincidence.
[Dale speaking]
[Zak] We ask everyone to exit the building
so we can conduct a pre-investigation.
Holy [bleep]. Roll it, roll it, roll quick.
-[man] That's what I'm saying. That's what I'm saying. -Watch out, get out, get out.
Holy [bleep]!
[Zak] Before we can even begin,
an energy makes itself know in the room directly next
to the one where Steinbeck's mother died.
It's just-- it's-- It's strong.
I just felt something in here that was very, very strong.
I walked right here and I could not go in anymore.
I had to get out.
-[man] Oh, oh. -It was strong.
And there is something in here right now.
Billy, get that meter in here right now.
[man] Whoa, dude.
[Zak] Can you please interact with us?
Can you engage in communication?
-Right there? -Oh.
-Right here, right here. -Hold on.
[Zak] Billy is getting readings from the same exact spot
where I felt that energy.
-[Billy] It's right here. -[Zak] I told you I felt it.
-[Zak] What is the reading? -[Billy] 8.6, 8.9.
[Zak] This is it. Go next to me.
[man] What's that? [Zak] You hear that?
[Billy] It's right here.
Who are you? Are you John's mother?
[Billy] Oh, man, I can feel it.
It went all through my chest, like,
-I can feel my hair stand up. -You felt it
-go through you? -[Billy] Yeah.
Stay there, I want to get something else.
[Billy] Oh, I feel really [bleep] weird.
-It walked through me. -Yeah.
-And I'm jacked up, hold on. -I felt it earlier.
[Zak] As Billy recovers
from the energy going through his body...
[Billy] That was intense.
[Zak] ...I retrieve the Ovilus 5, and we begin asking question
Who's here? Who's here with us?
[man] Are you the mother?
[electronic voice speaking]
-[man] Lady? -Yeah.
-A lady. -Dude, I told you, it's the mom.
[Zak] We receive no more responses
so we move towards the upstairs.
I feel like
there's, like, some objection here about us being here.
Whoa! Listen.
-Rocco. -[Rocco] Yeah
Come here, give me your boom mike.
-Turn it way up. -[Rocco] Mm-hmm.
All the way up.
Can we come upstairs?
Did you hear that?
Oh.
There was, like, a knock,
and then there was, like, a... [mimics growl]
Did you hear that?
[Zak] We head upstairs and instantly things go off the rails.
Aaron is terrified by a china cabinet.
[Aaron] Oh, [bleep]!
-What happened? -[Aaron] Nothing.
[Aaron] I'm so [bleep] angry right now!
[Zak] Then gets irrationally angry about
a missing piece of equipment
[Aaron] I'm so [bleep] pissed.
Then I become strangely focused on this do
and am overtaken by anger myself.
-Billy? Billy? Billy? -[man] He's downstairs.
-Well, get him upstairs. -Bill!
What the [bleep] is he doing, dude?
Sorry, I'm getting very bothered right now,
I'm getting very agitated.
This house is haunted and it's charged and it knows we're here.
[Zak] As we further investigate this room,
I make a major discovery.
Whoa, whoa. Check this out.
I just realized what you realized.
-It's, it's set up. -That's bad.
These mirrors are set up as a psychomanteum,
which is when you face two mirrors together
to create a loop and this loop is believed
to be a portal where spirits can enter through
as a doorway into our world.
It's an infinite reflection.
Are you passing through here?
Through these mirrors?
Can you show yourself to me in this mirror?
[Zak] I receive no response
but this potential portal is a significant discovery.
We step outside to assess what we're up against
at this literary landmark.
There is a true mystery going on here
at the Steinbeck House
long after John's death and his mother's death.
And the fact that he saw these things
walking, these entities, while his mother was dying--
what was there?
And did that thing that he saw walking,
that he was not supposed to see,
did that traumatize him?
Was it something evil?
Is this house a portal?
Is there something else going on here?
Was John Steinbeck born into a house
where there was a portal to the dead?
[Zak] It's day two at the Steinbeck House
in Salinas, California,
And I decide to split up the team to cover more groun
So, right now, we are going to review
some evidence with Dale.
And during this time Aaron and our equipment tech, Jeff,
who also designs a lot of our equipment,
electrical engineer, uh, they're down in the basement
'cause we haven't been down to the basement.
We never went down there yesterday.
So, Dale, we captured some evidence yesterday,
last night, that we want to share with you.
We were using a ITC audio device.
Basically, it taps into
the electromagnetic spectrum side of audio frequencies
and therefore, through the rapid scanning of radio waves,
we're listening to any voices that overlay
the individual sweeps,
and we captured a female voice
that seemed to span over multiple sweeps.
I'm gonna play it a little bit in front
so you can hear that... [mimics static]
Which means it's sweeping through the frequencies, okay?
See if you can hear her voice.
[indistinct static]
So, you heard that. I'll replay just that.
[indistinct static]
We're only here for a short period of time
and then we're gone.
I'd like to hear from you.
You got something to say. Or maybe just--
That's gotta be-- And hopefully that something upstairs.
I could have sworn I just heard something back in here.
I heard a pop.
Like... [tapping] like that, kind of.
It was a little bit-- had more of an echo to it.
Trying to get our attention.
Can you do it again?
Or maybe show yourself in front of this, right here.
I could probably catch you on it.
Well, while we were in that same room,
I was taking full-spectrum photos
you want me to show?
Yeah, so I ended up going over to the table,
which you can see on the left hand side over there.
-Yeah. -He had just left from here.
This is where we just got that voice.
-Oh. -He got up and sat next to this table
and I just started rapid firing.
And, at that time, uh, Billy captured this anomaly
on the camera.
On the fourth photo, this weird red giant ball.
We weren't able to debunk that as any type of lens flair
or light reflecting refraction or anything.
[Billy] Right now, I'm gonna put this on the bed.
Hey, Steinbeck, they say this is your bed
that you grew up and were born in.
Would you like to stand next to it?
It would be so great if you could show yourself to us.
-Whoa. -What?
Your figure just popped out of your body,
hit the ceiling and popped back in.
-[Billy] For real? -Yes.
Whoa.
-I'm getting sweaty, dude. -[Billy] Yeah.
[Jeff] It's supposed to be cold in basements, right?
So, this next piece of, uh, video,
I set the recorder just stagnant,
uh, on that dresser
-and just kind of left it there. -[Dale] Mm-hmm.
And I propped up a spoon up on the dresser there as well,
just as a trigger object.
-And we, we left the area. -[Dale] Yeah.
-Nobody's up there. -Yeah.
[spoon clanging]
-Pretty crazy. -Oh, yes.
[Jeff] Come on, buddy. We just wanna talk to you.
Help you out. Find out what you saw when you were a kid.
[doorbell dings]
-[Jeff] Is somebody here? The door. -[man] The door.
[man] What the [bleep] was that, dude?
Bro, that door just went off.
After the spoon falls over,
there's an EVP that we wanna share with you,
So, go ahead and play that.
So, this recorder, which was sitting up there, static
and no one around, captured a voice.
So I'm gonna let it play back here from the silence,
-and it will roll into the voice and you'll hear. -Okay.
[radio static]
[indistinct]
Sounded like another female.
-I agree, I agree. -[Zak] I do too, I do too.
-Ready? -Yeah.
[indistinct]
That sounds like a female with vocal tone.
-It's so creepy. -It's so weird.
-It is. -It is almost [indistinct].
Is she saying the same word? Like, something about my life?
Or... [speaks gibberish] ...my life.
[indistinct]
There is a female voice imprinted
on an audio recording on a standard digital recorder
in an empty room.
This is the kind of stuff that we look for.
Look, where's the thing at?
-Where are you at? -Right here, look.
-Yeah, I got you. -Okay, wait.
-Where's the sensor? Just... -[doorbell ringing]
Where the-- Dude, why is the sensor going off?
Is it this? Is it that?
-[Jeff] Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa, dude. -What?
[Jeff] I've got... It's on the wall
right next to freaking door.
It just climbed right out of you.
Did you hear it?
[Jeff] It just climbed right out of you, bro.
-Serious? -[Jeff] Yes.
-And then the thing-- -[Jeff] It's on the fricking ceiling.
We all gather outside to discuss Aaron and Jeff's incredible experience.
When he was standing there in front of that door,
the XLS picked him up,
But in the process of picking him up, his body stretched.
So, something grabbed a hold of his skeletal
and shot to the ceiling.
And the arms were hanging off the ceiling.
Your figure and you left you and went up?
Something like used my energy, I believe.
-When I... -[Jeff] The lower part of his body was still there.
The upper part stretched.
-Good. Good. -[Aaron] It was cool. It was cool!
[both laugh]
Yeah, really good. You guys look like twins. I'm like--
I'm like, "Wait, which one's Aaron?"
All right, good job, guys.
-All right. -All good.
I got to--I wanna check something on this camera real quick.
-I gotta review this right now. -What are you after?
I don't know. Something behind you guys.
Something behind them?
Yeah, hold on a second.
So, it starts here, but it looks like it goes into the house.
-Let me see. -See it?
Oh, yeah, damn.
It looks like a weird shadow figure of some sort walked past.
-I never saw anybody there. -Yeah.
-There was nobody over there. -Right.
I know that for a fact.
But it looks like it goes in front of the house.
-Yeah, it looks like-- It does. -[Zak] Like, I see it go,
like, in front of that.
[Jeff] Yeah, and then it disappears, right?
Exactly. There's no way it could do that.
[Zak] It looks like it goes in front of here.
[Jeff] And then just vanishes right there.
And vanishes right here.
Which is right where we captured the [bleep] downstairs.
Okay, we are locked down inside the Steinbeck house.
We just went over some evidence with Dale, who works here
and is a historian about all things John Steinbeck.
And even he was speechless,
about the female EVP we captured
upstairs, right after a spoon fell.
[indistinct speaking]
I'm gonna do a live boom microphone sweep of the entire house.
This is one of my favorite things to do
because I'm listening to a highly sensitive microphone
live, in the moment, just raw audio.
Aaron will be following me from behind
so that he can document my every move
during this boom mike's sweep of the house.
[Aaron] Show you how dark it is.
This is what we're seeing.
We were just told by Dale,
he said the chef will not go up here at night.
John Steinbeck, you were an amazing man
with an amazing mind.
You're a great writer.
A lot of your writings inspired some of the best movies
in cinema history.
I know you went through a lot of pain in this house,
seeing your mother go through these strokes
and eventually die in here.
But you said something, John.
You said how haunted this house was.
All off a sudden, I start hearing movement upstairs.
There is something moving upstairs.
[knocks]
Two knocks.
There is something moving upstairs.
[knocks]
Two knocks.
Guys, switch your audio to the upstairs camera now.
-It is. -It is.
-Two knocks, did you hear that? -I heard that.
I'm tripping out, you guys, I'm ice cold.
Did you just do this?
[knocks]
-Heard it again. -Listen.
You guys, I'm legit terrified right now.
I am hearing non-stop squeaking of the wood, knocks, everything.
Who is up there moving around?
Aaron and I now make our way upstairs
to see what has been making
these unexplained knocking sounds
and unexplained noises.
Olive, are you still in your house?
Is that who we heard?
I put the recorder right here.
All of the sounds we were hearing have mysteriously stopped.
If these were spirits making the noises,
why did they call us up here
I send Aaron back to nerve center
to see what happens if I'm all alone.
Will you talk to me?
It's just me up here.
You spoke on our recorder right out there.
Are you in that closet?
I feel like somebody's around me right now.
I return to base camp
because as I feel the spirits here,
I get a sense they are being reclusive
so we begin using the XLS camera
to try to get a visual on where they're at.
Okay, what we're gonna do right now
is when I was using the boom microphone,
there was, like, intelligence going back with me, with knocks.
When you start hearing that, when you start feeling that,
something is there, you know it's there.
But you can't see it, you can feel it.
[thuds]
-Oh! What the hell was that? -What was that?
That was loud.
What was that? That was upstairs.
Felt like something upstairs.
[Zak] All of a sudden, as I'm talking,
we hear a very loud bang come from upstairs.
[loud bang]
This is absolutely crazy.
Every time we are downstairs
we hear the spirits above us
-That one's loud. -That was like a-- [indistinct].
I heard it through here and through there,
like a metal pan or dish or something fell.
Something fell.
-[Zak] We're going up, Jay. -Yeah.
[Zak] Radio us.
We're getting more activity upstairs, you guys,
so I'm leading off with the XLS.
[man] You could feel it through the ceiling,
something fell on the ground.
[Zak] Are you upstairs?
[man] Something fell on the ground.
[Zak] Are you upstairs?
This is a very steep staircase.
We heard something.
Did you throw something up here?
Heard that?
[Aaron] Oh, something just happened in that closet area.
-[Zak] What? -[Aaron] Some noise just happened
in that closet area, like someone's trying to hide.
All right, hang on.
Serious, dude, something's back there.
[Zak] Is all of this activit originating in the same are
where we were experiencing it earlier?
I don't know if this is like, there's--
-Whoa! Whoa! -Oh, I'm getting the chills.
Is this psychomanteum an active portal?
I'm gonna shoot into this mirror
that I believe is a portal.
And I'm gonna see if anything unusual appears.
[Zak] As Aaron walks back in the room with the creepy dol
he starts feeling something
Oh, whoa, whoa. whoa.
Oh, what was that! Shoot me.
Is there something on me right now?
Dude, this cold mass just wrapped around, like, this side of me.
-Nothing? -Hold on.
I feel... Oh, it's right here by the chair.
What's up with this doll?
-[Jeff] Oh, whoa, whoa. -[Aaron] Whoa!
Whoa! I just touched it.
-[Jeff] Whoa! -Oh, God.
[Zak] As Aaron is feeling an energy by the doll,
his stick figure leaves his body and grows taller.
The tall figure then turns and faces the doll
before shape shifting into a four-legged creature
that straddles the doll.
In this chilling moment,
the figure appears to be almost attacking the doll.
This is absolutely terrifyin
and also extremely compellin XLS evidence
because Aaron felt this
moments before it started mapping in.
What's it mapping, Doug?
-[Doug] That was really weird. -[man] Whoa, dude.
[man] And now it's not mapping anything.
[Doug] No, it was, it was really good.
He knew it. Aaron knew it.
I'm just letting you guys know that our
sensibility of doing this hundreds and hundreds of times,
when we feel something, there's something there.
See, I'm changing the 3D image
just to see all sides,
analyze the whole frame
and you can see as I'm doing this,
Aaron has a perfectly mapped figure that stays within his extremities,
which is what it's supposed to do.
What it did before was not normal.
That was paranormal.
Because we just captured this evidence
focused around Aaron, I have an idea.
I feel like, because we just captured that around Aaron,
Aaron, I want you to stay up here by yourself
and hang out up here and do a communication
one on one and see how deep we can get this interaction going, okay?
-Billy, come with me. -Okay.
So, Billy, while Aaron's on the second floor,
-Jay and I are gonna observe on the middle floor, -[Billy] Yeah.
I wants you to go down to the basement.
-[Billy] Okay. -Okay?
Because when we were filming just moments ago before we started,
-Jay captured that dark figure that we cannot explain. -Okay.
Prepare to go into the basement.
-[Billy] All right. -I want you to go down there,
particularly that back room, okay, and investigate.
[doorbell rings]
Okay, I'm in the basement all by myself.
I'm down here by myself.
If you wanna communicate with me,
I'm making my energy available to you.
I will allow you to use my energy to speak to me.
So, if you're interested in talking,
come talk to me.
Okay, I'm sitting here in the basement.
And I'm gonna use one of my favorite devices,
a device that I seem to connect really well with.
The Paranormal Puck 2.
This puck has sensors in it that can use electromagnetic fields
that are around it to decide which words that it uses,
when I ask questions on the tablet.
So, I'm gonna set this right here in the center of the room,
and then I'm gonna use the tablet
and I'm gonna ask some questions.
As Billy conducts his Paranormal Puck 2 session,
he receives a series of chilling, intelligent responses.
Are there spirits present?
-Adam. -Adam.
Tell us who the female is.
-Melody. -Melody?
Who is in this house?
-Walter. -Walter.
If that's true,
then focus your energy on these lights right here.
Your energy will make them change colors and make noise,
so that I know that I'm talking to Walter.
Is that who I'm talking to?
Tell me about this house.
-Poem. -Whoa.
Oh, my God. I just got goosebumps down my neck.
I just asked, tell me something about this house
so I know it's... Oh, man!
This just replied with poem.
Mr. Steinbeck, is that you?
Sir, if it is you,
please give me another response on this tablet
about this house.
Poem is a great clue.
Can you give me another one?
Tell me more about this home.
Evil.
It's evil. Evil.
"Tell me more about this home?" "Evil."
Who's the black shadow we saw?
-Witch. -Witch?
Oh, that's scary.
I asked, who is the black shadow we saw?
And it says, "Witch."
[Zak] Who are all these spirits?
Does the "poem" response reflect John Steinbeck?
And is the "witch" the evil inside of this house?
Look, I just wanna tell you right now,
I just went through and
what I'm feeling right now being alone is a lot more terrifying.
I wanna talk to you, okay?
We just wanna talk to find some answers out
[Zak] I have another idea for Aaron, so I quickly head upstairs.
I want you to stay up here, and I want you to stare into this mirror
because it'll reflect back to this mirror and create a loop.
And I want you to see if you see anything coming through.
-Okay. -Because I think
this is the psychomanteum, the portal.
Check this out. This is what I saw. The black shadow. Like, this thing came up on me
and it ran in the closet.
Like, whatever is in this area is because of this.
[Zak] Before I leave, I set up some more X camera
then I feel some ice cold ai
Whoa.
Feel the-- feel how ice cold it just got.
[Zak] As I head back downstairs,
Aaron is sitting alone stari into the psychomanteum,
and it's at this time we capture the only anomaly
from the entire night on any of our X cameras.
Watch as you can see it appearing to brush Aaron's leg
as he is seated.
Aaron now turns on the Polterpod
and captures the only voice while he is up here,
which appears to say, "Sit u
while he is staring into the mirror.
[radio static]
Who are you?
[radio static]
[Zak] Could this spirit also be noticing Aaron's bad posture?
[indistinct] energy is just getting [indistinct] right now.
Ooh!
Why am I zoning out like this?
Is that you taking my energy? Are you gonna do something?
Whoa, the camera behind me just shut off.
Whoa!
Oh, my God!
I said, "Are you gonna use my energy to do something?"
and the camera just shut off back here.
Look.
Look at this, this was shooting in the mirror,
and literally everything just turned off
when I asked if it could use my energy to do something.
Now it's back on.
The battery life, did it drain its battery?
No, full battery.
Get the [bleep] outta here.
Look at that.
[Zak] The camera just went off by itself?
[Aaron] Yeah, that has full battery.
So, it wasn't a battery charge shut off.
Something actually shut it off.
[Zak] Aaron, that's the camera
that I was shooting through the psychomanteum with you.
I'm rolling it again.
Aaron, go in that room with the closet,
with that door, and that original-- Kind of tour that around.
[Aaron] Look, I know you're in here. I know you just did that.
Can you open that door?
You open that door right now, I will leave upstairs
and leave you alone in peace.
Whoa!
My whole body just went to chills.
Oh, it's crazy.
Camera just shut off again on its own.
Are you kidding me, dude?
No. And right before that,
I started smelling like, uh, like oatmeal cookie
and then, all of a sudden, it turned into this, like, rancid, something dark.
Like, not sulfur, but it was getting like-- It was gross, dude.
I had to take my mask off.
Your camera just stopped by itself?
It just stopped again by itself, hang on.
Camera's shut off.
One more time, it just shut off while looking in there.
Watch, I'll hit power. Hang on. Wait for it.
Full bat. The battery's full.
That's weird.
Where are you? Show yourself right now.
What was that?
Look, look! Camera just shut off again.
I just heard a loud bang right in here.
Whoa, what was that?
[Zak] Unbelievably, the camera shooting into the psychomanteum mirro
shuts off by itself for a third time with a full battery.
Something does not want us seeing into the mirror porta
Aaron has had enough and runs down to nerve in a panic.
We continue to monitor the second floor
while I now use the full-spectrum camera.
So, what I'm gonna do right now, I'm gonna take the full-spectrum camera
and I have an illuminator here.
This illuminator has IR light and UV.
So, it's a full spectrum illuminator to use with this camera.
Reason why I like this illuminator is
I can adjust the intensity
based upon the environment of the room and also the color.
So, I'm gonna use this device with this,
and I'm gonna go see if I can get evidence of the entity,
the little girl that was hovering above the picture there in the room
where John Steinbeck's mother, where she died.
As I walk throughout the entire house and take over 100 photos,
I come to this spot here.
And as I snap a few pictures,
the infrared light on the X camera
mysteriously drains instantl
And it is at this moment that I realize
I have captured something on camera
and return to nerve center immediately
What the hell is that, dude?
-Dude, hold on. -I knew it.
Look at this.
-What the [bleep] was that? -Here, here. Look.
See this? I was shooting in this back room.
That's where-- On the interview day,
where I felt something pass through me,
and we got readings right there.
[man] Okay, yeah, I see you're shooting in there.
[Zak] Here's one picture, two pictures,
-three pictures. -[man] Whoa.
[Zak] What is this?
-[Jeff] I don't know. -[man] Slow that one up.
[Aaron] Oh, my God. You know what it is? Can I show you, Zak?
It's like someone who's really you know, like...
It's like this.
This is what they're doing. Ready?
Grabbing the chair to sit in it.
Look, their head's down. You see that?
Do you see it?
Skinny arms, grabbing the back and his head's down.
[Zak] It's in front of the window, right?
[Jeff] It does look like it's grabbing onto the chair.
-[Aaron] Yeah. -[Jeff] He's against the chair back there.
[Aaron] Yeah, his, his head's down or something, that's what it looks like.
[Zak] Dude, what the [bleep] is that?
We are all completely mind-blown
and chilled to our absolute cores
as to what this strangely shaped black mass
that appears to be above the table.
We immediately rush to the exact spot where it was captured
to try to debunk it.
This is where I was standing.
I was standing right here.
Snap, snap, snap.
This thing--
-[Jeff] Oh, you can't see through that. -You can't see through that.
[Zak] No, whatever this was was here, like this.
-[Jeff] Yeah. -[Billy] Yeah.
That's what it looks like.
[Aaron] It wouldn't be a shadow from outside. There's no light from outside.
[Zak] Aaron, go outside, just go stand out here.
There's Aaron.
You can't even see him.
[Aaron] This is how far I am down.
You can see Aaron's there.
You can see. Aaron, raise your hand in the air.
Keep raising it.
Oh, dude, he's 7' down.
There's no way.
There's no way that was anything explainable at all.
Nope.
What did this thing look like that was outside, Jay,
-that you captured? -Was it dark right there?
[Jeff] Yeah, it was a black mass that was moving.
[Billy] I didn't tell you guys this. I went to the basement
and I was using the Paranormal Puck 2,
and I asked what the black mass was,
and it immediately said, "Witch."
I was, like, "What?
And so I said, "Tell me something about this house,"
and it came back with evil, instantly.
-Like that. -All right, you guys.
-That's pretty creepy. -[man] It's creepy.
[Zak] I think that's gonna be our best piece of evidence in this investigation.
We tried to debunk this, and we don't know what the hell it is.
We don't know what the hell it is.
After catching that dark mass or whatever it is,
it was pretty incredible.
Absolutely incredible.
We tried to debunk it.
This is a blackout shade here.
So, I put the Paranormal Puck 2 sensor
right in the area where we captured it.
And I wanna ask, "Who is in this room?"
Witch.
-[Jeff] Witch! -[Aaron] Oh, my God!
[Jeff] Stop!
-Are you serious? -[Jeff] Did it just say that?
[Aaron] For real?
Didn't you just say something about a witch?
On that device? I asked in the basement.
-On this device? -I was in the basement,
I said, "What did Jay capture on his camera?" And it said, "Witch."
-[Zak] While you were using this? -[Billy] Yes.
We just got witch again.
Twice on the same device, and now you're asking.
-Whoo! -Wow!
This is terrifying.
Yet again, the witch identifies itself
just as it did with Billy in the basement earlier.
Whoever or whatever this witch is,
it seems to be the dark presence
that has also revealed itsel
in a very incredible full-spectrum photo.
And to add to the fact that
Billy asked,
"Who was this other dark shadow captured outside
appearing to go into the house,"
and to receive the exact same response
to that second dark shadow figure
is absolutely chilling.
