Have you guys ever seen one that big before?
I didn't know they got that tall.
That's like the size of my house.
How much do you think it weighs?
[Zak] You guys ever wonder how a polar bear catches fish?
-How? -Yeah, how?
With his bear hands.
[chuckles softly]
[Zak] There are things in this world
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 renown professionals in the field,
capturing groundbreaking proof of the paranormal.
-It's working! -Whoa.
I can't give you an explanation.
[Zak] This is our evidence, our Ghost Adventures.
[Zak] Elko, Nevada is a sleepy town 300 miles removed
from the bright lights of Sin City...
with a sinful history all its own.
We're at the abandoned Commercial Hotel and Casino...
last in the line of rough and tumble establishments
on this spot dating back to 1869.
[indistinct chatter]
[Zak] 150 years of lawless cowboys, cutthroat gamblers
and exploited women
have contributed to a steady drumbeat of violent tragic death.
The hotel, which occupied the second and third floors,
was evacuated and shuttered
for fire code violations in 1982.
Okay, we're just getting ready
to go inside for the very first time.
Before we go up to that second floor and the third floor,
that's the abandoned hotel part, okay?
That's where the spirits reside from what I was told.
And also in the basement.
That's ground zero.
That's the vortex.
That's where all that energy comes up and fuels these spirits here.
So, what I want you to understand is
this building is known to be dangerous on a spiritual level.
[Zak] There have been multiple reports of hostile energy,
including aggressive attacks
inside this highly-charged building.
We make our way to the second floor,
which flashes Aaron back to a disturbing vision he had last night.
It was like this. I swear to God, dude.
-[Zak] So right now-- -I kept seeing visions
of all the spirits just... [sputtering]
[sighs]
-[Zak] There's a lot of... -[Aaron] I feel them.
...weird unusual psychic kind of things going on with Aaron.
-Yeah. -[Zak] And we don't usually see that a whole lot
with Aaron getting so visual
with things that he's seen before.
It only happens once in a while.
[Zak] Very once in a while.
It just has a really impressive type of rejection type of energy here.
Opposition, opposing.
-[Aaron] 100%. 100% -It's not welcoming at all.
It's, like we don't need to be here.
-I don't wanna deal with it. -[Zak] You feel it, right?
-Yeah. -Right now I feel it.
These expressions, these emotions
are telling us something.
I'm gonna state that because we've listened to this.
We've used our bodies so much that we have to listen to them.
[Zak] We meet with Cory Stanton,
who recently quit his job as a security guard here.
Did anything here ever, like, creep you out while you were working here?
I was with a security guard and we heard somebody run
from about where the stairwell is
-all the way across the building and back. -[Zak] Okay.
And when I looked at the security guard I said,
"Please tell me that there's a hallway there."
He says, "No, that's all rooms."
They had to have been running through walls
if they wanted to run that way.
You heard somebody running up here.
-They were running like the devil was chasing them. -Oh, yeah.
-[Zak] Like, sprinting, stomping on the ground. -Oh, yeah.
[Zak] As we move down the hall,
we begin to hear unexplained noises.
[clunking]
-[Zak] Hold on. -[Jay] What was that?
[Jay] I heard something slam down there.
[Zak] Can I get audio?
Audio! Hold on. Hold on.
First I heard a voice down here,
and then I heard loud noises like someone's running
-and that just sealed the deal. -Yeah.
[Zak] Can you extend this? Hold on. Hold on.
[Jay] It sounded like someone was slamming a door.
[Zak] He heard it from way back there.
[Zak] I attempt to make contact
by reading aloud some of the bleak history of death in the hotel.
June 5th, 1870. Annie McManus.
[Billy] Whoa. Whoa, whoa, whoa.
We just had a huge spike on the TriField.
It went to, like, an 8.7 when that name was read.
[Zak] Are you here, Annie McManus?
You were brutally murdered here
by being stabbed 65 times.
Charles Snead.
October 30th, 1896.
Just a day before Halloween.
He was half Cherokee.
Charles Snead, you were brutally beaten over the head with a coupling pin.
And you were found bleeding to death in the rear of the building.
John Coble.
December, 1914.
John, you walked into this building
and you shot yourself with a revolver.
October 26th, 1985.
Merrill L. Wolford shot and killed Roger Broyles
in a jealous rage.
[Aaron] What was that?
in a jealous rage.
[Aaron] What was that?
[Zak] Is that you, Roger Broyles?
Did you react to what I just said?
Oh, what was that?
-Did you just flick me? -No.
-No, he didn't. -No one touched you.
No one touched you. Why? What happened?
-[Zak] I just felt something go... -[Jay] It's been flowing
-back and forth. -[Zak] Like telling me to shut up.
[Zak] Does this place infect its occupants with a deadly rage?
Bernard Cosgrove stabbed a policeman and an police dog
after savagely butchering Annie McManus inside this building.
Charles Snead was battered to a pulp just outside this building
by a man who only wanted his pocket money.
Before his suicide inside this building,
John Coble was known as a happy man
with a wife and five small children.
Merrill Wolford testified that he was in a state of altered consciousness...
[gun firing]
...when he shot Roger Broyles inside this building.
[Zak] Cory, what have some of the other guards experienced up here?
One security guard that they particularly didn't like, they would growl at him.
They would throw things at him.
And very often he would go home with scratches on him.
-Really? A security guard? -[Cory] Yeah.
They threw brooms at him, batteries.
Like, he showed me one day,
because he said that his back was really burning,
and he lifted up his shirt and there was just rake marks all down his back.
[Zak] I have been in a lot of haunted hotels,
but the vibe up here is so intensely negative,
it's hard to take a step forward
without feeling threatened.
After a while, because of him being scratched and things like that,
he refused to come up here and he actually left.
So, he quit because of the spirits.
-And he was absolutely defenseless. -Yeah.
He said he hated it up here.
[Zak] As I step inside one of the abandoned rooms,
I have the unsettling sensation
that it's full of lost souls.
Whoa! Stop, stop, stop.
[Zak] Give me my recorder.
I just walked into this room and it was like I pushed people up against this wall.
[Zak] Tell everybody to be still and be quiet.
Whoa, dude. Something just grabbed my camera back.
-[Zak] That's what I'm saying. -Oh, my God, dude.
I was sitting there and I thought one of you guys pulled it back.
So, listen. All that I wanna do is
I wanna try to get answers about what is it like up here.
What is it like without your physical body?
So I'm gonna come set this up.
I'm gonna squeeze between you.
I'm gonna put this right here, okay?
Can we hear you?
Are we in any danger by being up here?
When we listen to the recorder,
we discover two direct responses to two different questions.
[Zak on playback] Can we hear you?
[indistinct noise]
[Zak on playback] Are we in any danger by being up here?
[Zak] What was that?
[Zak on playback] Can we hear you?
[indistinct noise]
[Zak on playback] Are we in any danger by being up here?
[indistinct noise]
[Zak] What was that?
[Zak] Is this a voice saying, "No, you can't hear me,"
and, "Yes, you're in danger up here."?
[Zak on playback] Can we hear you?
[voice on playback]
[Zak on playback] Are we in any danger by being up here?
[voice on playback]
[Zak] Suddenly, Billy's throat closes up and he struggles to breathe.
[Billy coughing]
-[Zak] Hold on. Hold on. -[Billy clearing throat]
[Billy clearing throat]
That's, like, the third time that's ever happened to me. It was instant.
As soon as we heard that voice that said "no" or whatever,
my throat got irritated.
It's when you played that voice.
[Zak] This is an intensely active location.
We can't take a step without feeling like we're being toyed with.
When we step outside
to get a break from the menacing energy,
we discover a very rare Nevada downpour.
[thunder rumbling]
Between thunder claps we try to debrief.
Once I was in there and started naming those names off...
it was weird.
It was like I saw those people.
They were reacting to you saying their name.
The meter was going off.
Just all the noises, the women talking. That...
The TriField hit, like, a nine or a 10.
We're just documenting right now, everybody, that...
there's some very weird physical, mental things going on with us
in our bodies upstairs there.
[Zak] From his vision before we arrived
to how he's behaving now,
it's very clear that Aaron is being heavily affected by the energy here.
This is a [bleep] up location, man.
I'm, like, up there and I just...
It's like a roller coaster.
As soon as you come outside,
it's like you just wanna throw up from all that roller coaster ride
and just pass out and call it a night.
It feels better standing out here in the rain
-than it does being up there. -Oh, yeah. I really do... Yeah. Like...
I say it once in a while,
like, I don't wanna do this one.
And this is, like, it gets...
It's, like, getting in your skin and inside your body.
It's really weird. At least for me.
Like, I don't like it.
I started getting pains out of nowhere.
It was, like, just [bleep] jabbing at me.
No, you're completely different.
-Yeah! -You seem more connected on this.
Yeah, it's weird, dude.
[thunder cracking]
[Zak] We're all shaken when a bolt of lightning hits
very close to where we're standing.
We seek shelter,
but it says a lot that we chose to risk electrocution
rather than going back inside.
[Zak] So, Cory just left
and he just sent us this picture.
It's from where we just were.
-[Billy] Yeah. -[Zak] He said a security guard,
-when he was on patrol... -[Aaron] Oh, yeah!
...heard something and took this photo.
-[Aaron] It looks like a woman in a dress. -[Billy] Yep.
It appears as though there is
-what looks like a girl in a dress... -Yeah.
...standing in the hallway.
-[Billy] Yep. -[Zak] The security guard did such a good job
that he took another photo and it was gone.
Now, the elongated nature of this apparition or whatever it is
really rules out the possibility this is
some type of dust orb or something.
What did I say in the car on the way here?
-I kept saying I saw a woman in a white dress... -[Jay] Yeah.
-[Jay] Like, a lady in white kind of thing. -...with white hair flowing,
coming at me at the end of my vision.
I swear to God.
That was the end of it all.
Because I kept seeing all these spirits at the end. It was, like--
You said a woman in a white dress.
-White dress with, like, -[Jay] That's exactly what he said.
-white flowy hair. Just go, "Ahhh!" Right at me. -This could be a woman.
-And then I snapped out of it. -I mean,
-you can see her hair exactly. -I don't know.
-That sounds like what you were describing. -[Aaron] Yeah.
What?
So, the security guard, they think that that picture
-is the woman that was stabbed to death 65 times. -Oh, my gosh.
Oh, my God.
-And you didn't know... -[Jay] That can explain... Aaron!
-...about that woman that was stabbed. -I don't know any... Hey.
[Jay] You were feeling stabbing pains, weren't you?
-I was! Upstairs. -Yeah, he was feeling stabbing pains. I told you.
[Zak] It is clear that since arriving in Elko,
Aaron has been profoundly influenced
by the psychic scars of the Commercial Hotel.
The most pressing question is why.
[Zak] It is now time for us to descend
into the massive catacomb-like basement
where former employee Lee Westerso will show us
where he had a terrifying encounter.
[Zak] Okay, we've already had
some weird experiences today, okay?
Oh, I don't doubt it.
I was here 20-odd years, so...
[Zak] Later during our lockdown,
this basement will be the site
of one of our most indisputable
and most terrifying pieces of visual evidence to date.
But I will say, once we get down into the basement,
we are gonna start running into some of the original foundations.
And so when you have the original foundation,
that holds all the memories of its past
and a lot of times down here connected to Earth
and all the geomagnetic energies coming out of this mining town,
this is where a lot of your portals are going to be located,
where a lot of energy is.
So, with that said, and what's already happened,
be careful.
[Zak] Okay.
Lee takes us to the place
where an intelligent disembodied voice whispered in his hear.
And when I got here, I couldn't really see anything
but I tipped my head like this to if there was anything I could see,
and this far from my ear I heard a women's voice say, "Can I help?"
And I thought somebody had followed me in this door to try and scare me,
but I was still the only one down here in the basement.
[Zak] It was right in your ear.
I mean, yeah.
Like a lover close enough to kiss you even.
Like right here in my ear.
[Zak] And what'd she say again?
"Can I help?"
[Zak] "Can I help?"
She didn't really say it like she was trying to be helpful.
It was kind of petulant like, "Can I help so you can get the heck out of here?"
You know, like, "You're in my space."
That scared the heck out of me.
I mean, it was... It was wicked.
[Lee] I think this is where the shipping manager used to...
-[Zak] Whoa! -...put all his stuff.
[Zak] What the [bleep]? Watch out. Watch out. Watch out.
[Aaron] What happened?
[Zak] Dude, that was [bleep] creepy.
[Zak] I was looking and I looked and I thought I saw something.
I don't know, dude. It was weird.
It was, like, a green misty kind of, like,
-form or something. -[Billy] Was it high or low?
[Zak] It was low. It was about the height about four feet.
And it was like it changed shape.
It was [bleep] weird, man.
And it was green.
There's no... Shadows aren't green.
Did it look like that picture at all?
-[Zak] Yes! Yes! -[Billy] Wispy like the picture?
[Zak] It was like the shape of that.
-About this tall? -It was the same exact shape as that.
[scraping]
[Zak] What was that?
I did not see anybody move.
-[Billy] That wasn't you? -[Aaron] No one was moving.
-About this tall? -It was the same exact shape as that.
[Zak] What was that?
[Zak] There's somebody over here?
Did you hear that noise, Lee?
Yeah, I heard it. Just right out in this area.
I was looking at everybody when that happened and no one moved.
[Zak] As we move through the maze
of hallways and dimly lit rooms,
I get a strong hit from an open crawl space.
Guys...
I turn a corner and it was, like, I could not go any more past this
-right here and I look over... -[Billy] What is that?
[Zak] It's a cutout in the wall of, like,
the ground, dude. Look at it.
[Billy] Look over there.
[Zak] I decide to do an EVP session in this charged area.
[Zak] Is this the portal?
[faint clattering]
-What was that? -[Billy] What was that noise?
[Zak] Is this the portal?
What was that?
[Zak] Everywhere we go in this building,
we hear unexplained noises.
as if the spirits are trying to scare us away.
Who are they and why do they want us out?
Okay, so, we just heard something that sounded like metal.
Let's keep this here.
Leave it there.
I'm gonna leave that camera there.
Let that roll. Let's go.
I leave the recorder running and a camera rolling
in case there is more activity here
while we explore the rest of the basement.
This is creepy down here, isn't it?
Bill, look at these old creepy walk-ins.
You guys see this? These old walk-in freezers?
-[Lee] Yeah, boy, they're old. -[Zak] Aaron, get in. Go in there.
-Yeah, right. -[Zak] What?
'Cause the worst is you'll shut it and I'll be stuck.
-[Billy] He won't shut it. You know him better than that. -[Zak] I'm not gonna shut it.
I mean, after 15 years, you'd think you'd learn
a thing or two from this guy, right?
[Zak] The deeper we get inside this highly-charged basement,
the more the feeling of being watched intensifies.
[Zak speaking]
[Zak] I didn't have a good feeling in there, Bill.
I did not like it in there.
That's the first room where I just could not go inside.
This place is heavy man.
Yeah, it is.
[Zak speaking]
[Zak] Whoa, what was that?
Whoa!
-[bleep] just touched me, dude. -What?
[Zak] Something just touched me on my back.
-Serious? -[Zak] I swear to God.
It was nothing that I hit.
-There's nothing there to hit. -[Zak] Ohh.
[Zak] It was right here, like, a hand.
[Zak] I return to the crawl space
and check the digital recorder for EVPs.
[indistinct noises on playback]
-Is that when it was sitting-- -[Zak] We were gone!
Wait, is that when it was sitting
-by itself? -[Zak] That's when we were gone.
-[Billy] Are you kidding me? -[Zak] Listen, listen.
[indistinct noises on playback]
[louder noises on playback]
[Zak] These unexplained noises
that sound like whispering voices
were captured by our voice-activated digital recorder
while no living being was anywhere near it.
When these sounds were captured,
we were in an entirely different section of this vast basement...
as you can tell from the camera we stationed near the digital recorder.
-[Zak] Those were voices. -[Billy] Yeah.
-It was, like, talking right directly into it. -[Zak] Yeah.
[Zak] I would like to state
that since entering this building,
I have noticed my crew acting very strangely.
They're just not themselves.
When we are inside this building,
there is an awkwardness to how everyone is talking and interacting.
their energy, their movements.
I know my crew very well, and every person is affected.
[Zak] As we start our investigation,
Jay and I head down to the basement to set up X cams,
at which time, I fell a sudden and scary episode
of something affecting me physically, and I have to go outside.
I went downstairs into the basement.
Was wearing this.
Was walking around, was fine,
was setting up those X cameras before we started.
And I went back to the back room
where we heard a noise last night,
and I just got really, really dizzy.
My heart just started pounding, and it wouldn't stop.
I just thought I was gonna pass out.
I thought I was gonna blackout.
The guys are very concerned for me,
but after about an hour of staying outside,
I suit up and head back in to start our investigation.
Aaron and Billy head up to the hotel area
while Jay and I head back down into the basement.
I just have a fear like this is the stairway to hell, literally.
I know what's down there, waiting.
Whoever did this to me is down there.
Like, I feel that. I know that.
It's not even a hesitation.
So, I think what we should do, Jay, is let's just go step by step.
I have a full spectrum camera.
Let's just use this right now to see if we can capture anything.
Did you do something to me?
I don't want this. I don't wanna be affected.
I didn't disrespect you at all.
If you're messing with my body,
I ask you to, please, stop that.
As Aaron and Billy reach the second-floor hotel area,
Aaron feels something immediately.
[Billy] Man, this is the bookshelf.
-[Aaron] Whoa, dude. -[Billy] What?
[Aaron] I had [bleep] some cold air fall on me right now.
-[Billy] Where? -[Aaron] Right on me.
It started swirling around my head, then moved out of it.
It kept coming at me, like, right as I was walking away.
It just kept coming at me.
And now it, like... And now here is is again.
-Oh, [bleep]. There it is again. -Whoa, whoa, whoa.
You feel it?
-On my elbow. -Yeah!
-It's on my [bleep] elbow. -Oh, it's really cold around you.
It's on my elbow. Oh, get that new device out.
It shows drastic change. Oh, it's really cold right here, Aaron.
Bring that meter over here.
[Aaron] 68.
[Billy] It's really cold on my back. Go behind me.
-It's really cold right here. -Yeah.
[Billy] Oh, it's staticky, too.
[Aaron] Dude, I'm getting a bad headache.
[Billy] Oh, it's just static, man. Look at my arm hair sticking straight up, dude.
There's something touching my elbow right now.
-[Aaron] Wow. It is so cold all of a sudden. -I know.
[Aaron] It's dropping, but, like, dude, it feels colder than that.
[Billy exhales] Man.
-[Aaron] You all right? -Yeah. It's just this hallway has a dizzying effect.
Or it was whatever touched me.
-[Aaron] It got you. -I don't know. I feel like I'm leaning over.
I feel really weird right now.
-[Aaron] You know what's really weird? -What?
Is I feel kind of, like, chill and at ease.
Oh, I feel like I'm on a boat.
Listen, whoever that is that's doing this to me.
Why are you doing this to me?
Are you trying to take my energy?
Are you trying to teach me a lesson?
You just want me to leave? Is that what it is?
Let me just fill everyone who's watching us right now.
You know when you're online or something and you see that meme,
and there's a picture of a scary door with a tunnel that leads to it?
The door leads to darkness?
It says something like, "Don't ever think about entering into here?"
That's what this is.
As we slowly move through the tunnel,
we reach the spot where I started to suddenly feel
like I was going to blackout earlier.
This is the spot where it happened.
I was setting this camera up right here.
Do you see us?
You affected my friend here.
-It's not cool to do that. -[thud]
What was that?
[Jay] You affected my friend here.
-It's not cool to do that. -[thud]
-[Jay] ...that. -[thud]
What was that?
Get back behind the camera.
[Jay] Do something bigger.
[thud]
-Whoa. -[Zak] Whoa. [bleep]
-[Jay] What the hell is that? -[bleep]
Who's there?
-Sure enough. Loud booms, banging noises, again... -Yeah.
...from the same area we heard them.
[Jay] You know what? This is the area.
You could see where they actually used to do deliveries
and loading in things, too.
I wonder if there's some kind of residual energy from workers, you know,
like, still stomping around.
Hey, what was that?
[Jay] What was it?
What's going on?
I heard something, like, slide.
I couldn't see anything on here.
-[Jay] Yeah, I didn't hear it. -Did you hear that?
[Jay] No. I couldn't hear it out here.
[Zak] At this exact moment, I hear a shuffle sound,
and I have no idea I actually capture something
that seems to slide by itself on this shelf.
-[shuffling sound] -[Zak] Whoa.
Watch this area very closely, and you can see whatever object this is
move by itself while making that noise.
[shuffling sound]
-[shuffling sound] -[Zak] Whoa.
What was that?
Are you in here?
We immediately conduct an EVP session.
Are you making noises in here?
Who's inside here making noises?
I heard a sliding sound and then a loud metal sound.
[Zak on recording] Are you making noises in here?
Who's inside here making noises?
I heard a sliding sound...
-Ooh. -[Jay] That was another bang, right?
You heard that, too?
[Zak on recording] Who's inside here making noises?
I heard a sliding sound and then a loud metal sound.
[distorted speech]
[Zak] Whoa, listen. Listen.
[Zak on recording] I heard a sliding sound and then a loud metal sound.
[distorted speech]
[Zak] What the [bleep] is that?
Listen to these creepy noises with full vocal tone.
What is this?
They are absolutely disturbing.
[Zak on recording] I heard a sliding sound and then a loud metal sound.
[distorted speech]
I want you to show yourself.
I want you to stand down the hall, and show us what you look like.
Don't be a coward!
Don't be a yellow belly!
If you're a cowboy, bank-robber, banker.
Come out here and face me.
Do something.
[Aaron] Who are you, and what do you want?
What's up with this building? Is it so violent because of the history?
-[Aaron] Huh? -[Billy] Look in the XLS.
Wait a minute. [bleep] How are there letters coming through?
[Zak] Ladies and gentlemen, I want you to pay very close attention
to what Billy just captured on the XLS camera.
Watch as the letters "WH"
seem to manifest on the mirror above Billy's head.
-[Billy] Uh, what's that say? -[Aaron] Huh?
[Billy] Look in the XLS.
Hold on. Here's what I need to know.
-I'm gonna go to my notes. -Oh, yeah.
W. A. Harvey is the colonel.
[Aaron] W. H. W. H!
Oh, my gosh. It is W. H.!
[Aaron] Oh, my God, bro!
[Billy] Listen. A is his middle name. W. A. Harvey. W. H.
The colonel was found dead in his bed in 1880 in this hotel.
-[Aaron] No way. -Yes.
[Aaron] Hold on. Reshoot that mirror.
[Billy] I'm standing, like, right here.
[Aaron] Let me get him. Hold on. Hold on.
-You do that. I wanna-- -There's no "H".
No. There's no letters on the wall. There's no--
There's nothing back here.
[Billy] It doesn't make any sense.
Wait. Let me shoot the mirror. Hold on.
I'm gonna go slow.
[Billy] There's no writing on the mirror or anything like that.
Here's the crazy part. When I first started shooting it,
there was no letters.
And then all of a sudden, the letters '"WH" appeared.
When I said, "Come through the mirror."
-[Aaron] Yeah. -[Billy] Then "WH" appeared.
[Zak] As this is one of our most compelling captures ever
using the XLS camera, the big question is:
how did it appear through the XLS?
And yet, there are no visible letters on the mirror
or on the wall behind the mirror.
This is incredible.
Hello?
We can feel you all around us.
This is a tunnel here.
Is somebody down there?
I want you to walk towards my voice so I can see you on camera.
Show yourself.
What was that?
Oh, my God.
We just heard noises all around us.
And it's very coincidental that we heard that
just as we entered what I believe is the portal.
[breathing sounds]
[Jay] What? You heard that, right?
[Zak] Jay and I hear a strange breathy-type gasp,
and it's captured on our camera's audio.
[breathing sound]
[Jay] What? You heard that, right?
[Zak] I now decide to set the Polterpod in this window
to the dirt ground, where I believe an open portal is located.
[breathy distorted voice]
-[Jay] What? -[Zak] What'd do you say?
We now capture a man's voice appearing to speak a few different words,
but we can't make out what he' saying.
[breathy distorted speech]
-[Jay] What? -[Zak] What'd he say?
[Zak] Two levels above us,
Billy is still operating the XLS when he captures a small figure
peek around the corner in the next room over,
as he is trying to take off the camera vest.
[Billy] Hold this for one second.
[Aaron] We've been here on plenty of jobs.
[Billy] Where we're talking right now in the quarter.
We're actually in the mayor room.
You just captured a figure wherever you're aiming that.
-[Aaron] Are you serious? -Yes.
[Aaron] Oh, my God. What is that?
[Billy] Where are you aiming that?
-[Aaron] In the room next to us. -Okay.
I glanced down. I had you help me 'cause I'm kind of out of it.
You're pointing the XLS in the room next to us.
A tiny figure, about two feet high,
peeked around the corner like this,
-and you didn't realize. -[Aaron] No.
-[Billy] I looked, and it was gone. -[Aaron] No.
[Billy] In that room.
-[Aaron softly] Dude, I am ice-cold. -I know. I know.
Oh, I'm freezing cold.
There's, like, an air-conditioning in my pants.
That's what it feels like.
You turned the AC on,
-and the vent's going up my pants. -[Billy coughs]
-What's wrong? -[coughs]
It's doing that [bleep] again [splutters] in my throat. [coughs]
[strained] I can't breathe.
[coughs and clears throat] Are you doing that?
[clears throat] You're not going to enter my body.
You do not have permission to do that.
I do not give you permission to enter my body.
I'm sorry. I feel a little bit off.
-Do I seem off? -You do.
As I feel really, really off. Like, like...
[Aaron] You sounded like Zak sounded earlier.
It's this place.
You lead, and I'll follow you.
[Zak] The guys now head up to the third floor, where none of us have been to,
and where we hear it's kept sealed off.
All of a sudden, Billy starts panicking.
[Billy] What the [bleep]?
Hold on.
-I'm tripping out, dude. -What?
Oh, my God. Your eyes just now.
I know this sounds... You're like, "Oh, his face keeps changing."
Your face keeps changing, bro.
Your eyes were like ice. Like, they're glowing.
[Aaron] Almost like the White Walkers?
Yes. Exactly like that.
You were holding your camera. I look at you, and your eyes just glowed, like, ice-white.
It was so [bleep] trippy, dude.
[Billy whispering]
No joke.
Like, I don't wanna go up there.
I'm trembling right now, and I haven't been this scared in a long time.
I want you to go first.
-[Aaron] There we go. -You're relaxing nobody. Nobody comes up here.
Everyone we checked. "No, no one goes up there."
-[Aaron] Oh, yeah. -You know why?
[Aaron] It's like ice on me.
It's sealed off. People don't come up here.
Where do you think the spirits would be?
[Aaron] Oh, the pricklies, man.
We're not wanted up here.
Come on!
I'm tired of wondering what is going on with these visions.
I wanna know answers.
-Whoa. That smell over there. Does that smell like death? -[Billy] Yes.
[Billy] Why are there bird feathers on the ground?
[Aaron] Oh, yeah. That is strange.
-What is it? -[Billy] Oh, wait, man. Just in there.
-Do you know what else I noticed? -What?
Okay. Wait, wait, wait, wait. That's two things.
Weird feathers, and you know what else there is? Come here.
Like, look. Look, look, look. There's, like, a path. Have you noticed this?
-It's like-- -[Billy] I don't think it's blood, though.
[Aaron] No. It's like blood, but it's paint.
Yeah. It is paint. It has to be.
[Billy] That's... Look.
[Aaron] Oh, my [bleep]. That's... I thought that was glue!
-[gasps] Dude. -I would say that's a ritual circle.
Even though that's... I know that's paint.
-Wait. Guess what it is! -[Aaron] What?
[Billy] Guess what it is. Watch this.
-[bleep] wax, bro. -[Aaron] Oh, my God.
Which means ritual.
That's wax, not paint. You're right.
-[Aaron] What about the feathers? -And the feathers.
The feathers in there, and then this circle.
[Zak] Is this discovery the remnants of a ritual circle?
And if so, who was conducting it, and how long ago,
seeing as this hotel has been closed since the 1980s?
[Zak] Three floors down, in the basement,
I start getting angry as I snap full-spectrum still photos.
We wanna see who's making all these noises.
It's really [bleep].
[bleep] show yourself. I'm getting angry.
-Whoa, Jay. -What is it?
-Jay, did you see that? -No. What is it?
-Did you [bleep]. -No. What is it?
-That black shadow. I just saw a black, like... -No.
-[bleep] I was looking at you. -...really weird shape there,
going towards that... See that red light?
-[Jay] Yeah. I see it. -I saw a black figure in front of that.
Dude, that's the same thing I saw.
[Jay] You saw it from down there, right?
[Zak] You were over there. I saw, like, it straight [bleep] at me,
but I saw a huge black mass.
But as I was looking at it, I saw something black, rubber band, like,
doing this, and it went by that red light.
-It was [bleep] terrifying. -[Jay] Yeah. It sounds terrifying.
It was like a walking snake.
Anybody out there would've seen and heard the things
the Jay and I have had.
I guarantee you, 99% of the people watching this right now-
you wouldn't be down here.
What are you?
There's just rooms everywhere.
So many places where it can hide.
As Jay and I head back upstairs to base camp,
I start reviewing the full-spectrum photos immediately
and make an absolutely terrifying discovery.
Oh, whoa. What the [bleep] is that?
Oh, my God.
-Do you see that? -[Jay] Yeah, I see that.
[Zak] It's like a black figure with a cloak on.
-[Jay] Wearing a cloak. Like, it's got a... -A hood.
-[Jay] Yep. -[Zak] Now, I don't know
if this is anything paranormal yet.
I'm just pointing it out because that red light right there.
-Do you see the red light? -[Jay] Yeah.
That's the red light that you saw.
[Zak] That's the red light that it passed.
[Jay] Yeah. You saw it go by.
[Zak] That's the red light that it passed.
I am speechless, horrified, and excited.
The black, slender figure I saw move past the red light
is captured in this picture.
It looks like a slim, black, hooded figure.
So I have a picture of the alleged figure
that I saw with my own eyes right here, in front of the red light.
I wanna go back and take pictures in the same exact position.
[Jay] Oh, it does.
-[Zak speaking] -[Jay] Yep.
[Zak speaking]
We're on different angles here.
It's in that room.
Let's just walk up to it and see if there's something black shaped like that.
[Jay] Yeah. If there is, it'll be clear as day.
-[Zak] That's the room. -Yeah.
[Zak] Well, what if it's standing right there?
-[Jay] Yeah. -There's something there. Can you see that?
-[Jay] Yeah. -You see the empty wall?
-[Jay] Yeah. -See, like, eyes in it.
-Eyes? -[Jay] I see, like, little, white eyes.
[Zak] Yeah. Look. It comes down here like a leg.
-Like it has a heat vent. -Yeah.
[Zak] See the picture there.
I cannot believe what we just captured
and the fact that I saw this with my own eyes pass the red light
and then captured it.
This is definitely one of our top trophy captures in Ghost Adventures history,
adding in the fact that we went back down there
and saw nothing against this wall
that could have matrixed this black, hooded figure.
And to top it all off, when I tried to duplicate the picture,
the black cloaked figure is nowhere to be seen.
This evidence is nightmare-inducing,
and we will never, ever forget this investigation,
a place where we definitely have to come back.
