and then it dissipated.
When you see a black mass,
it's disturbing, scary.
Big Black was a very angry,
evil, ominous energy.
ALAN: We began
a Spirit Box session.
Is there anybody up here?
All right.
Talkative.
Who are you?
♪♪
The responses, you know,
went from bad to worse.
Started getting responses
that were dark, evil.
"Shut up."
"Leave."
Just a lot of nasty things.
It's upset with us.
It's pissed off.
The way it was speaking to us,
the things it was saying,
it was definitely frightening.
NARRATOR: A charge in the air
accompanies the voices.
ANNA: Like an electrical
impulse, almost.
I hear what sounds to be
a little girl humming.
[ Humming ]
It wasn't a second or two later,
Anna heard humming.
It's coming from over here.
ANNA: The voice
was strange to me.
I feel like something making
the noises to taunt us
and almost try
and instill that fear into us.
NARRATOR: The humming stops,
and Anna and Alan
make their way to another
active area in the home.
ALAN: We proceeded
to the doctor's office
and examination-room area.
ANNA: Even right from
stepping in the room,
it felt like
you were being watched.
♪♪
It felt threatening.
It didn't feel welcoming at all.
Dad, there's somebody here.
ALAN: We sat down in the
waiting room like patients
waiting to see the doctor,
and it was at this point
we heard tapping,
ting, ting, ting,
back in the examination area.
[ Tapping ]
ANNA: So we started
asking questions.
Who is it?
♪♪
Why are you here?
ALAN: Did you live
in this house?
Are you the doctor?
I heard you.
I know you're talking.
The room got extremely cold.
We both felt uncomfortable.
There was a sense of dread.
What are you doing
in my [bleep] house?
I believed it to be the doctor
that wanted us out.
I felt like my shirt was getting
tugged, getting poked,
physically feeling
something touch me.
It was a violating feeling.
No. No.
No.
NARRATOR: In Indiana,
an evil entity
known as the doctor
wants investigators
Anna and Alan Tolf
out of its home.
It intimidates them verbally...
...and att*cks Anna
physically.
It was a violating feeling.
Get out of my house!
Aah!
Get out!
You have to leave!
Get out!
He did not want us
in his space,
and he was making it
very well-known to us.
I felt like he intended
to do harm.
He did target Anna,
and he wanted her out.
[ Coughs ]
NARRATOR: Anna becomes
violently ill.
I start feeling more and more
sick to my stomach.
I get dizzy.
Things start getting
a little fuzzy.
I know it was the entity
making me feel that way.
Let's get out of here.
Come on.
NARRATOR: Alan rushes his
daughter out of the home.
Once outside, she begins
to recover from the att*ck.
ANNA: Just leaving
the house, like,
was almost an immediate
feeling of relief.
[ Breathing heavily ]
You all right?
NARRATOR: As soon as Anna
feels better,
they go back inside
to investigate
one last area of the house.
♪♪
We proceeded
to the séance room.
The séance room was used
to conduct séances
during the time period
in which the house was built.
It was a popular thing to do.
The objective is to contact
someone on the other side.
In doing that,
they opened a portal.
Anything can come through there,
good, bad, or indifferent.
NARRATOR: Alan and Anna try
to make contact
through a flashlight session.
We established with
the spirits in the room
that the light being on was yes,
and off was no.
Do you know how to turn
on a flashlight
where we can ask a question,
and you would answer yes
by lighting up the flashlight?
♪♪
All right, Dad.
Dad, the flashlight.
Holy [bleep]
Anna had asked,
"Are you a male?"
♪♪
Turn off the flashlight.
Oh, my God.
-Well, hi.
-Oh, wow.
Hi.
To see the light
turning on and off
as we asked questions
was remarkable.
NARRATOR: Whatever is
communicating with them
decides to use more
than a flashlight.
ALAN: I felt a little
vibration, by the way.
I felt a cold breeze.
I did, too.
I just felt pressure
on my shoulders.
I start getting another
overwhelmed feeling.
You feel like someone is
just controlling your body,
and your feelings.
No. No.
No.
I will not be a vessel.
Feeling, like, anger,
feeling dread, feeling fear,
it's a very
compelling experience,
but very frightening.
NARRATOR: All of a sudden,
they hear a surge of voices
on the Spirit Box.
[ Indistinct talking ]
ANNA: But they're almost
competing to speak,
trying to talk
over each other.
They became very vulgar,
almost, you'd say, evil.
[ Groans ]
[ Panting ]
NARRATOR: The spirits
in the room are powerful.
They're manipulating my mind
into seeing things
and feeling things,
and I really think they do that,
try to make you feel
what they may be feeling
or to completely frighten you
and try to get you out of
where they don't want you.
NARRATOR:
Fearing for his daughter,
Alan ends the investigation.
I absolutely worry
for her safety.
Dear Lord, we come to you for
your power and your strength.
We say our prayers,
pack it up.
Come on.
Let's get out of here.
ANNA: Even just leaving
the house, immediately,
you felt the relief.
You felt like a weight
was lifted from your shoulders.
It wasn't holding you down
anymore.
NARRATOR: To this day,
this investigation
still unnerves Anna and Alan.
I % believe that
we did substantiate
several of the claims
at Whispers Estate.
We did come in contact
with Big Black,
which is malevolent.
I believe we came into contact
with the doctor.
I think there are many entities
that resided in that home,
good and bad,
but I think the bad
outweighed the good by far.
Whispers Estate is haunted,
without a doubt.
