19x05 - Albion Castle

[bunniefuu]

As soon as I crossed that
threshold, boom, instant anger.

That sounded like
a possession.

Man: I know she had something
attached to her.

Man: I do not have
a good feeling in here at all.

It's proof positive
right there...

[ growls ]
Oh, God!

It's going to smash you
against that wall.

Oh, my God.
I'm scared.

That wasn't [Bleep] cool.

It's like a portal of just evil.

Billy:
Hurt 'em. Hurt 'em all.

[Bleep]
what just happened to me?

[♪♪]

Zak:
There are things in this world

that we will never
fully understand.

[ Distorted ] understand.

[ echoing ] 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.

- Aaron: It's working!
- Zak: Whoa!

I can't give you
an explanation.

[ Birds cawing ]

Zak:
This is our evidence,

our ghost adventures.

We're in the town
of Benicia, California.

It's in the bay area.

And we got a phone call
from the owner

of a very old hotel,

one that's almost 170 years old

that saw the darkest days
of the gold rush,

turned into a flophouse
in the 1950s.

There's also claims
of a m*rder and a suicide

and a lot that's just not known.

[ g*nsh*t ]

But what is known
is that this owner needs help,

needs serious help

because she's having a hard time
keeping her staff employed here

because of what dark things
are happening to them.

Built in 1850,

the Union Hotel has endured
the cutthroat gold rush...

- [ g*nsh*t ]
- A smallpox epidemic

and the debasement
of prostitution.

All that misery created
psychic reverberations

that continue to echo
throughout this structure.

[♪♪]

We enter the hotel to meet
with Nina Moreno,

who recently quit after 3 years
as a housekeeper.

She says she was driven away by
the trauma she experienced here.

I don't remember
which week it was.

I think it was maybe
the first or second week

I started working here.

I was really happy
coming into work.

I was like,
"yay, I have a new job."

all of a sudden, as soon as
I crossed that threshold,

boom, instant anger.

Whatever was here made me
feel extremely sick,

sick to my stomach
to the point

where I felt
I was gonna throw up.

[♪♪]

I want to know exactly
what led you to quit,

if you're saying that it really
was due to the spirits here.

What were they doing to you
that was so bad

for you to want to quit?

Uh. They followed me home.

You think it came back
with you from here.

Oh, I know it did.
I know it did. I felt it.

Zak: Nina says her relationship
with her fiancé

was affected
by whatever attached to her.

My whole demeanor
would change.

I would get mad at the, like,
slightest thing.

Did that ever escalate?

A few times, yes, yeah.

[♪♪]

We were together
with some friends,

and he said something or he did
something, and it set me off,

and I started hitting him,
and I was telling him to, like,

"don't do that. Don't," like,
excuse my language.

"Don't [Bleep] do that."
like, I fought him over it.

I was arguing
and shouting at him.

Zak: Nina's fiancé, David,
is a devout christian.

I'd pray with her
that night,

and then she'd have a nightmare
about

- a demon or a ghost.
- So you guys were...

Well, you guys were praying

because you thought

that she may have something
attached to r from here?

I know she had something
attached to her.

Zak: One particular experience
made Nina and David believe

that something
extremely dangerous

had entered their home.

I was asleep on the couch,
and I was talking in my sleep.

I don't normally talk in my sleep...
Mm-hmm.

And he said
I sounded very angry

and saying that
I didn't want to do it.

Her eyes were glazed over.

Her face had gone black and red
at the same time,

if that kind of makes sense,

and she kind of lunged at me
and yelled at me,

like, "leave me alone,"
is what she said.

What did her voice
sound like?

Like a growl, like,
"leave me alone!"

[♪♪]

She has no memory of this
even happening at all,

but she knows
something had happened.

She felt that something
was going on.

- Okay, and she has no memory of that?
- Correct.

Okay. Do you know what you're
describing to me right now?

It sounds like some sort
of demon, I would say.

That sounded like
a possession.

Yeah. Yeah.

[♪♪]

Do you like her
coming back here,

even for this interview?

I'm glad that she's doing this,
but I don't like her being here.

I couldn't tell you
why it happened or how it happened,

just that
it wasn't right.

Zak: It is often said
that a prost*tute

who plied her trade here
in the 1800s

hanged herself in the hotel

and continues
to occupy its rooms.

Nina says she encountered
this spirit

in the wild peony room
on the third floor,

so I ask her to take us there.

As soon as we enter the room,

I notice something
is bothering Nina.

- You all right?
- Yeah, yeah,

just give me a second.

- What's wrong?
- I'm getting really emotional.

I can feel her sadness
every time I'm in here.

I can feel it
really bad today.

Is she causing you
to get emotional?

I... that's what
I feel like it is.

I feel her
acting through me.

I was fine
when I walked in here,

but when I got on
this side, like,

I'm, like...

I just feel
a little bit of anger.

I do not have a good feeling
in here at all.

Are you getting anything
at all, Aaron?

- Aaron: Nothing. It actually...
- Zak: There's, like...

- Aaron: You know what's crazy?
- Zak: It's strong in this area.

Is there anything else
that we have?

- This was rolling on you, Zak.
- Aaron: This was rolling.

I had this rolling, and when
you got that weird feeling...

Can I have a piece of equipment?
Just something, please?

Aaron hands me
the ovilus device.

I'm very aware that something
in this room

is making me
uncontrollably angry.

Can you say something to us
right now,

considering the events of
what's happening at this moment?

Can you get my recorder
out of my bag?

Jay: Yeah.

I have not gotten a single word
on the ovilus yet,

and I want to roll on this,
and I want you to hold it.

- Yeah.
- I want you to hold that.

Don't fidget with it.

Make... I just got
the word "make."

make what?

Aaron: This thing's spiking out
crazy right now. Look at that.

It's literally been
sitting there,

- doing nothing.
- Okay.

As soon as you said that,
it just...

It's on a bed. There's
no electricity on a bed.

- Yeah.
- Is it jumping?

- It's jumping like crazy.
- Is the needle jumping?

Yep. And it wasn't
doing that a minute ago.

Are you telling us that you're
making the device do that?

Aaron:
It stopped. It stopped.

- It stopped.
- It stopped.

Zak: We listen to playback
on the audio recorder

that Nina was holding.

Are you telling us that you're
making the device do that?

Male voice: Yeah.

- Aaron: Whoa!
- What the hell was that?!

- Did you hear that?!
- Holy [Bleep]!

Are you telling us that you're
making the device do that?

- Male voice: Yeah.
- [ gasps ]

- Aaron: Dude!
- Moreno: Oh, my God!

- What the hell?!
- Aaron: That is the best.

Oh, my God. Play that again.

- That's... wow.
- Zak: Do you hear that?

Yeah. [ laughs ]

- Listen.
- Yeah.

All: "yeah"!

Holy [Bleep]!

Dude, that was amazing.

Oh, my God.
That was awesome.

That's proof positive
right there, class a evp.

Are you telling us that you're
making the device do that?

[♪♪]

Zak:
We capture no further evidence,

so we move into the hallway.

How are you feeling
right now?

- Moreno: Uh...
- How's your body feel?

It feels really warm.

Like, I'm heating up.

- [ Female voice ]
- all: What was that?

- It was, like, a female cry.
- Moreno: It said, "hello."

- I heard that!
- That was... yeah.

- It was right over here.
- That was right there.

Like, I'm heating up.

I'm heatingp.

Zak: I move to the room
where the voice was heard.

Are you back here?

If you want us to talk and
listen to you, we will do that.

Can you do things on command to
make this easier? [ mouths words ]

- It sounded like a growl.
- Aaron: What was that?

- It sounded like a growl.
- Aaron: Did you hear that?

- Zak: What'd you guys hear?
- Moreno: A growl.

- Sort of a growl.
- Zak: Where at?

- Right here.
- Right next to you.

Yeah. It was loud.
I heard it clear as day.

Zak: Although our mics don't
pick up the sound of the growl

that Aaron and Nina both heard,

it has become very clear
that this location

is a seething hive of activity.

Okay, we're basically targeting
our investigation on two parts.

The one part that's
really serious is Nina,

her fiancé, David,

and what I just heard
was classic example

of a demonic attachment.

But behind me is
an actual original wooden bar

that's original from the hotel,
as we were told from the owner,

and this is going to take us
to the years 1848 to 1855,

the years of
the California gold rush.

[ g*nshots ]

[♪♪]

Marisa Porras-Cisneros
may have experienced echoes

of the lawless gold rush era
while cleaning the empty hotel.

So when you worked here
for 17 years,

did you experience anything
scary in terms of ghosts,

evil spirits,
things like that?

When I working alone, I feeling
people walking behind me.

Uh-huh.

And I looking around
and I don't find nobody,

and I start feeling like
I'm not alone.

Zak: Marisa heard something
unexplained in the bar area

when she was alone
in the building.

[ Indistinct conversations ]

I hear, like, many people,
like a party...

Like a party.

Back in... yeah, uh-huh.
A lot of people, like...

- Just talking and all this...
- Uh-huh, womens and mens.

- Women and men.
- Yes.

Man: Never heard anybody
say that.

- And the restaurant was closed?
- Yes.

Well, actually, the restaurant
is not the restaurant.

It was empty.
It was empty, an empty room.

- Yes. Yeah, mm-hmm.
- It wasn't a restaurant yet.

No.
[ piano playing ]

So way back in time,
back in the 1800s,

the Union Hotel
also had a saloon,

and the saloon was open
for gold rush.

And I'm wondering if
that's what you heard,

all the people in that saloon
partying, drinking, fighting.

There's an old article that even
mentions an old piano player

that was in
the Union Hotel saloon,

and one of the cowboys
didn't like what he was playing

and shot him, k*lled him.

[ g*nsh*t ]

[♪♪]

When you have something

like a natural earth-made
product, like wood,

I've gone over this before
on previous investigations.

It's something called
the stone tape theory,

where an imprint,

like, an emotional imprint
of an event of the past

is literally recorded into
the substances of this bar.

Bartender, give me
another whiskey.

I'm gonna sh**t you
in the face!

Get over here!
Don't look at my lady!

How much do you want, lady?

All of those emotions
that were directly connected

by the hands of these spirits
that we're after right now

were directly on this wood that
I'm able to touch right now.

[♪♪]

- Oh, my God.
Aaron: Oh, my God, dude.

- Where was that?
- That was right in front of me.

Zak: Who's making that noise
up there?

It's right there!

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Okay, this is it.

We are getting ready to begin
our lockdown investigation.

We are going to be investigating
the alleged possession,

the attachment
of former staff member Nina,

that had to quit her job
after 3 years.

Whatever was here
made me feel extremely sick.

Then her fiancé
came here to help.

He got attacked.

I rolled up my shirt, and there
were these scratch marks

going down my back.

It's gonna be
us three in there.

We are going to literally
lock inside.

Jay's operating this camera.

Jay, you're going to follow us,

and you're going to be
monitoring our nerve center.

- You guys ready?
- Billy: Ready.

Let's go.

[♪♪]

We make our way up to
the third floor,

where Billy is setting up
a laser trip wire for spirits.

Billy: Okay,
here is our trip wire.

We'll definitely hear that

if anything comes through
this hallway.

- Aaron: Wait. I didn't get you.
- Zak: Whoa, whoa.

- Billy: What?
- Zak: Whoa!

What?

Aaron: What?

I just heard something
walk up behind me.

[♪♪]

- Billy: Okay, this is set.
- Whoa.

Was that you?
You hit something, Bill?

- Billy: No.
- Aaron: No one hit anything.

I said, "whoa."
I've been standing right here.

Zak: Hold on.

[ Floorboard creaks ]
[ thud in distance ]

- Listen!
- Whoa!

Zak: [Bleep]! Quiet!

[ Whispers ] that was the back
room around the corner.

Yeah.

This boom.

Stay there.

[♪♪]

Is somebody in that back room?

Can you make
that bang noise again?

[ Thud ]

Oh, my God!
Aaron: Oh, my God, dude.

- Billy: Where was that?
- That was right in front of me.

- Aaron: That was loud!
- Zak: Shh.

Billy: That's
the exact same noise.

Zak:
After hearing a loud bang,

we capture another one
that happens on command.

Can you make that
bang noise again?

Oh... again?

Oh, my God!
Oh, my God, dude.

- Where was that?
- That was right in front of me.

Thank you.

My heart's beating fast.

- [ Whispers ] dude.
- Zak: It's right in front of me.

- Yeah.
- Hold on.

It's intelligent.

Make that bang again.

Can you do it louder
this time?

[ Thud ]
[ Aaron gasps ]

- Billy: That's right there.
- Aaron: It's right here.

- It is?
- It's right here.

It's right here.
Come here, guys. Come here.

Zak: Hold on.
It sounded like it was in this room.

Zak:
Jay, can you hear that?

Yeah, I can hear it real clear.

- Zak: All right.
- Billy: I think you're right.

Zak:
It's intelligent.

- That time, it was right here.
- Zak: It's intelligent.

- Watch this.
- Zak: Is it in the room?

Check that room out, Aaron.

Billy:
What can it possibly be?

- No, could you feel it?
- Un-uh, it's in there.

- It's, like, in the structure.
- It's in the wall.

It's like the wall is shaking.
It... [ thud ]

- Aaron: That wasn't you.
- That... look.

[ Wall creaks ]
Aaron: Oh, yeah,

- that sounded like you banged the wall.
- No.

No, it did it the second
I touched the wall.

It sounds like
it's up here, honestly.

Listen.
[ clattering ]

- [ Aaron gasps ]
- Zak!

Zak: I now begin an EVP session
to see if this could be a spirit

trying to get our attention
in order to speak.

Okay, hold on. I'm gonna roll.

[♪♪]

Is someone making that
bang noise?

Can you do it again?

[ Thud ]
boom.

Did you hear how loud
that was?

- Boom.
- It was on command.

- Thank you.
- [ whispers ] wow.

Who's making that noise
up there?

Can you do two bangs?

[ Clattering ]

There was a hit
on the laser mic.

- Billy: Really?
- Zak: Yeah.

I hear something pass
the laser trip wire

just down the hall,

and as we review the x cam,
watch the laser very closely

as it appears to move, which
then triggers these sounds.

Can you do two bangs?

There was a...

There was a hit.

That bang happened
the second you asked for it.

Is someone making that
bang noise?

Can you do it again?

Who's making that noise
up there?

Can you do two bangs?
[ thud ]

- Aaron: Oh!
- That was a big one.

Billy: Jeez.

There's one that asked
the question

on the digital recorder...

- Yeah.
- And it replied with a boom.

A bang...

Zak: Just as I say out loud
that the bang was a big one,

watch what Aaron receives
on the ovilus.

"Big." dude. "big."

what kind of bang did
we just talk about?

And look what came up,
"big," big bang.

- "Big."
- really?

- Can you do two bangs?
- Oh!

- That was a big one.
- Jeez.

So listen, is the peony room
on the third floor?

- It is, isn't it?
- Yes, it's right around the corner there.

- Okay.
- Right around the corner.

So the most haunted room
in the hotel

is right down a corner there.

I'm going to head over there
by myself, no equipment,

just using this so I can see.

Okay.

All these bangs
that are going on,

we thought we captured
something on camera here.

I heard a hit on
the laser trip wire.

Okay.

This is where we captured
the class a "yeah" voice.

The device do that?

Male voice: Yeah.

Stay there. Ready?

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Aaron:
Hey, the bangs are gone.

Billy: Yeah, the bangs
stopped, Zak, by the way.

Zak: Okay, shh.

[ Thump ]

Zak: What the hell?

This door just moved, you guys.

- Aaron: Are you serious?
- As I was standing there, something...

You standing next to me?

Are you the lady that they say
committed suicide here?

[♪♪]

Aaron starts using a device
to detect static energy,

which we believe can be
a result of spirits manifesting.

This is the same type of charge

that makes your hair
stand on end

when in the presence
of a ghost or spirit.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Aaron: Do you like me
in this room?

[ Device chirps ]

So you do like me in here, yes?
[ device chirps ]

Zak: Just as Aaron captures
a light anomaly

sh**t past him,
the static detection device

receives a sudden spike
of some type of static charge.

It's like I keep getting hit with
this energy. [ device chirps ]

And every time I'm around her,
I walk it's, like,

I'm right here with...
[ device chirps ]

You can shake it.
Doesn't make it go off.

Something has to come
into the presence of this.

I keep feeling
these weird body chills.

When I pulled it out, it just keeps
going off around me. [ device chirps ]

[♪♪]

- What just happened to me?
- That wasn't [Bleep] cool.

A dark shadow went whoo from
this way to this way. Yes!

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Zak:
Aaron is tracking a presence

at the Union Hotel
in Benicia, California.

[♪♪]

Where are you, Bill?

In this room right next
to the laser, across from you.

Dude, you're... oh, stop!
You're not down the hall?

No, I'm over here.
I'm in this room.

Oh, [Bleep]. Oh, my God.
Then who just walked down there?

Zak: Could Aaron have just heard
the same spirit

whose footsteps we also captured

on the laser beam x cam
as it triggered our trip wire,

causing it to move
at the same time

that the footsteps
were captured?

Zak: Can you do two bangs?

There was a hit
on the laser mic.

- Billy: Really?
- Yeah.

I saw you walk down there
and never saw you come back.

I walked
straight from there...

- Into here?
- Straight into here.

I saw you run past here
and run in there.

Oh, something just moved
in that room.

- Dude, you saw shadows?
- Yes.

I just saw the shado
just now.

- Right here on the window?
- Right here.

Aaron:
Yeah! I saw that!

It was a dark shadow, went whoo
from this way to this way.

Aaron:
Yes! Yes! And I saw...

- Oh, God.
- You can see, like,

there's a little crack
right here, a glare.

Billy:
Oh. Feel this here.

- And I saw it.
- Aaron, feel this right here.

Zak: After hearing
all of this commotion,

I quickly joined the guys
and start taking photos

to see if I can capture
the spirit on instant film.

- In here?
- Aaron: Yeah.

[ Camera whirs ]

Aaron: We saw it straight ahead,
like right there, going up.

[ Camera whirs ]

[ Camera whirs ]

Zak: After capturing no visual
evidence of this spirit,

I try to make contact
using the direct-linc device,

and as I do,
our full-spectrum camera

seems to capture
this light anomaly

as it manifests
out of the mirror

and begins growing in size
until turning into a mist,

and immediately after this,
we also capture a voice.

[ Oscillating static ]

- Aaron: Whoa!
- Billy: What was that?

Zak: Aaron, Billy, and myself
now head

to the most haunted room
in the Union Hotel,

the peony room, where things are
about to escalate very quickly.

I felt you over here.

[ Oscillating static ]

Are you gonna talk to me?

I'm receiving no other voices,

but as I lay down on the bed,
that begins to change.

[ Oscillating static continues ]

Do you see me?

How many spirits are here
with us?

Male voices: One. Two.

- Zak: One, two...
- Male voice: Three.

Zak and Aaron: Three.

Zak: Incredibly, we hear
different spirits answer me...

"one. Two. Three."

how many spirits are
here with us?

Zak: Then all of a sudden,
I hear a female spirit.

[ Female voice
speaks indistinctly ]

- Is it?
- "so I music" or something.

What is your name, spirit?

- Male voice: Adam.
- Zak and Aaron: Adam?

- Adam.
- Adam.

What is your name, spirit?

- Adam.
- Adam.

- Spirit?
- Adam. -Adam.

This name will be heard
once again later

in our investigation.

- Male voice: Ashes.
- Aaron: "ashes."

"ashes."

- male voice: Zak.
- It said your name.

- Billy: Does that say "Zak"?
- Zak and Aaron: Yeah.

It figured your name.

Zak: Just as I hear this spirit
call my name,

something disturbing
happens to me.

I begin to completely black out,

and at this point
where I'm dropping my arms

I don't remember anything.

[♪♪]

It said your name,
like, twice.

Billy: How you feeling
right now?

Zak?

[♪♪]

You all right?

Aaron: You okay?

[ Inhales sharply ]

- What?
- You okay?

Whoa.
Whoa.

Billy: You know how long
you've been laying there?

- We've been talking to you...
- We thought you passed out.

For the last 2 minutes.

You're not responding.

Are you okay?

[♪♪]

What? [Bleep].

- Billy: What was that?
- Aaron: That was the gear.

The gear just fell.

How long have you been in here?

- Aaron: Since...
- Billy: A while.

You just came in
with the device.

It said your name
a few times.

- Did you even hear it?
- How long have I been in here?

- How long have we been in here?
- What just happened to me?

- Billy: I don't know.
- For 2 minutes,

you been laying on that bed.

- Just we've been calling your name.
- What?

- Then I walked up to you.
- What?

You've been here over 20 minutes

running that machine.
Me and Aaron just came in.

- Were you guys in here?
- Yes.

Yeah, we were right here
behind the camera.

We were calling it out
when we heard stuff.

[♪♪]

Billy: Dude, you look weird.

I just feel like everything has been
erased from my brain for...

You called my name.

I was sitting there.

I remember I sat there.

I heard spirits say,
"one, two three."

"one. Two."

- yeah.
- Right.

- Then after that...
- Then it said your name.

- It started saying your name.
- It was just black.

- No, because it said your name.
- It said...

It was, like,
all kinds of stuff.

Zak: I blacked out.
I completely blacked out.

I don't fall asleep like that.
I'm not tired at all.

I don't fall asleep, like,
that fast, ever.

I just remember doing that,
sitting there, asking questions,

hearing voices,
and then just waking up

and somebody doing that,
like, I was out.

- I don't know where I was.
- When you opened your eyes...

- That wasn't cool, dude.
- It was like... yeah.

- You were, like...
- That wasn't [Bleep] cool.

That wasn't cool at all.

I've not had that happen
to me before.

- What was that?
- I'm getting hit so hard.

I just want to get up
and flip that bed

and smash you against that wall.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Zak: Something in this
Benicia, California,

Hotel is infiltrating
my consciousness.

As I gather myself, I quickly
grab the geophone device to see

if I can measure any unusual
EMF readings

or temperature fluctuations.

I just fluctuated 6 degrees.

- What? How?
- It went from 62 to almost 69...



- That means something's right there, dude.
- To 70, to 71,

that was almost a 10-degree
temperature fluctuation.

I immediately switch
to the SLS camera to see

if these temperature readings
are indicating a spirit here

on the bed that may have also
caused me to black out.

[ Gasps ] oh, God!

- Billy: You mapping something?
- Oh, yeah.

- Do you see what's on the bed?
- What?

He just came from over here
by the lamp

and just came onto the bed.

- Billy: It's a...
- And now camera's frozen.

- Aaron: No.
- Zak: Yep.

There was a figure
over by the lamp,

crawled onto the bed,
disappeared by the pillows,

and look at this.

I have never seen a freeze
right after that.

- That's the spirit.
- Dang.

That's the bed
that I blacked out on.

That's the bed that I just
got those EMF spikes.

That's the bed that I just got
a 10-degree fluctuation.

That's the bed
that we just got

an SLS figure going
from the lamp onto the bed.

This right here is
where we got

a class a EVP
of saying, "yeah."

that's where
she got emotional.

That's where I got angry
during our interviews.

Billy: And where
you got angry right now.

Oh, it's cold.
I got to get...

- Oh, whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
- It's cold!

- Yeah. Yeah. Yes.
- It's dropping down.

- Aaron: Oh, my God.
- It's pulling from something.

Aaron:
I am getting hit so hard.

It's, like, right here
hovering over us, Aaron.

- Zak: I hope it saved this.
- Yeah.

We got it.

- I hope it saved that.
- [Bleep].

I've never seen it
freeze like that.

Aaron: You literally had to...
[ speaks indistinctly ]

- Yeah, it's... it's, like, right here.
- Zak: What?

I'm getting out of the tune

- [Bleep] for right now.
- Billy: Mmhmm.

Zak: Something is happening
in this room right now.

We are all becoming affected
and agitated,

and as investigators,

this is actually
an incredible experience,

to not only
feel what's happening

but also the evidence
that we are collecting.

Aaron: Does this bug you
that someone's sitting here?

If you could do
whatever you did to him,

you can show yourself...

- Zak: Whoa? What was that?!
- And show up.

Aaron: What?!

- Billy: What?
- Zak: Did you hear that?

- Aaron: No.
- Billy: No.

- Billy: No. What did you hear?
- How did you not [Bleep] hear that?

- What did you hear?
- What'd you hear?

- Billy: What did you hear?
- Just a deep growly voice.

[ Growls ]

Only you heard it.
I didn't hear anything.

I didn't hear it.
I was talking.

- You did not hear that?
- Aaron: No. - Billy: No.

- How the [Bleep] did you not hear that?
- No.

No. Didn't hear anything.

Zak:
After only I hear this growl,

the tension in the room
gets even stronger.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

I'm sorry, dude. This room
really [Bleep] with me.

[ Inhales deeply,
exhales sharply ]

It happened
during the interviews

and it happened now,
this anger in here.

How can we translate this
into evidence? 'cause...

Billy: I don't know.
The way I feel right now,

I'm just... I don't know.

I'm ready to [Bleep]
coming unglued right now.

There it is again.

Yeah, I'm feeling exactly
what you said,

just start
kicking [Bleep] over

and just lift that bed up
and flip it over on Zak.

- Aaron: What?
- That's what I feel...

That's what I feel like
I want to do right now.

I just want to get up
and flip that bed

and smash you against that wall.

[♪♪]

It's, like, making my hands
shake right now, dude.

Is this what
you're doing to us?

[♪♪]

I can't sit in this chair
anymore, dude.

I'm getting pissed.

Zak: Billy has to leave
the room,

and he finds a way to
get outside on the top floor.

Aaron goes to check on him.

I've never been that
[Bleep] angry before.

I wanted to [Bleep].
I just wanted to hurt people.

Aaron: You know, I felt the same
thing about the chair.

Sitting in that chair,

- I was sitting there.
- Aaron: Yeah.

I was like, "dude,
just [Bleep] everybody up."

yeah. Like, "hurt them.
Hurt them all, especially Zak.

Especially Zak."

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

There's something serious
in that room that is just...

It's like a portal
of just evil.

Zak.

[♪♪]

- What?
- You need to get some fresh air.

If you're feeling what I'm
feeling, you need to get

the [Bleep] out of that room.
Just telling you right now.

Everybody is having [Bleep]

Thoughts of doing violence
to each other,

and something negative is here,

that's definitely proof
of something.

Yeah, especially
the negative energy.

But what else can we do
to further prove that it's here?

Billy: I don't know.
You listed off, like, about 10 things

that's happened in this room
in that exact same spot...

The EVP, the anger,
the readings on the meter,

we mapped a figure twice,
two separate days,

in the same spot
with the SLS.

- Aaron: Oh, that's right!
- What more do we need?

Do you want to cause all of us
to be angry and fight?

Oh, my God.
That was scary.

That is a voice
with tone.

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Zak:
A force at the Union Hotel

seems to want to pit us
against each other.

We're hoping to hear his voice.

Is this what you want
to do to us?

You want to cause all of us
to be angry and fight?

Is this proof that you're here?

'Cause this isn't gonna
destroy us.

We're not gonna k*ll each other.

You're making us angry.

We don't really want to do
harm to each other.

Upon playback, we do indeed
capture an unknown voice.

Male voice: Listen.

Is this what you want
to do to us?

- Oh, my God. That isn't...
- It wasn't any of us.

[ Male voice speaks indistinctly]
Is this what you want to...

Who's talking over me?

- Aaron: Nobody.
- Zak: His voice.

- [ speaks indistinctly ]
- what?

Is this what you want to do to us?
What?

- His voice.
- [ speaks indistinctly ]

- no, Zak.
- You want to cause...

- Listen.
- His voice.

- [ speaks indistinctly ]
- dude!

- I know.
- Oh, I just got the chills.

He goes, "are you
talking to me?"

- Aaron: That's what I hear.
- "are you talking to me?"

like that. I'm mad.
Like, "are you talking to me?"

- Aaron: "you talking to me?"
- listen.

Listen to it again
with an accent.

His voice.

Is this what you want to...

- "are you talking to me?" yeah.
- Yeah. "are you talking to me?"

is this what you want to do...
Hear his voice?

Is this what you want
to do to us?

That is a voice with tone.

Later, we will further analyze
this EVP,

and just by being back
in this room

and having the spirit
talk to us,

we all find ourselves
sitting right here,

confused and uncertain
of what to do next.

But pay very close attention
to me in this moment.

I see a female spirit at the end
of the hall with my own eyes,

and I begin to talk to her.

Don't check into
that room.

[ Chuckles ] Jesus.

It's already occupied,
permanently.

Billy: There's no way
I could sleep in that bed.

It's occupied permanently

- by a powerful energy.
- If you're there, then let me hear you.

[♪♪]

What did you say?

Zak: Now I tell her
to make a noise on command,

and watch what happens.

If you're there,
then let me hear you.

Do something in there,
anything.

[ Thud ]

Okay.

That was on command.

[♪♪]

You realize that came from
the room, right?

Zak: Yeah.

I could feel it on the [Bleep]
wall as soon as you said that.

Zak: We all decide to head to
the second floor to take a break

from what we have
been experiencing on the third.

Do me a favor, okay?

'Cause what's happening
with you and I,

- we can't ignore that.
- Billy: I know.

Just hear me out
for a second.

So we need to clear ourselves
of this...

Billy: Right.
'Cause we're experienced enough to know

that that is proof
of something.

Absolutely.

But what I want to do now
as investigators

is take that experience,
document that,

realize that that is proof
of something, okay?

- Right.
- 'cause, obviously, you and I

- don't want to k*ll each other, right?
- No.

- Okay.
- No.

So just center ourselves.

We're away from
the third floor.

[♪♪]

We all know that this is
the room directly under that.

Let's just see
if it feels different.

I mean, it affected
all three of us.

Aaron: Yeah.

Zak: We want to see
if we can feel

the same effects in the room
directly beneath

the third-floor peony room,
where all of our negative

and aggressive events
have taken place.

Aaron: You guys, it's such
a different feeling in here.

- Billy: Completely different.
- Aaron: It's so chill.

Billy:
It's not even the same.

There's something really messed
up with that room energy-wise.

- Aaron: Hey, Bill.
- Yeah?

Can we put this, like,
on the third floor

and sit down here
and ask questions?

- Sure.
- Would that be cool or no?

Go put it right
in the center of the bed.

We're right below it.
Okay.

- That'd be cool, actually.
- Okay. I'll be right back.

Zak: As Aaron places
the paranormal puck

directly above us
on the bed in the peony room,

Billy begins typing in
this question.

[♪♪]

Oh, my God.
That was scary. That vibe...

Whoa.

Just... it just... walking back
in there, especially alone,

I just set it down, get out.

Ooh. [ exhales sharply ]

[♪♪]

Billy: Oh, my God!
I just did half. Look at this.

I asked it...
and Aaron's back.

- What?
- Hey. Look.

Isn't that the name
we got through the box?

- That's the name we got.
- Do you remember we got Adam?

That's the name we got
through the box upstairs.

What is your name, spirit?

- Adam.
- Aaron: Oh! Yeah!

- Through the direct-linc.
- That's right!

I've never seen "Adam"
appear on that device.

Aaron: Oh, my God!

And I just set it down
and came right back down.

But isn't Adam... didn't we get
Adam through the...

- Yeah.
- The sound direct-linc.

- Direct-linc?
- No way.

This has been, like,
an emotional roller coaster.

Are you stuck here?

- Zak: Oh, my God!
- Billy: What the hell was that?!

[♪♪]

[♪♪]

Zak: We continue to document
direct responses

at this California hotel.

[♪♪]

Incredibly, as Billy asks
if there is a portal

in the upstairs room,

we receive the name Adam,
which is the same exact name

that I received
on the direct-linc device

shortly before I blacked out.

Can you do something
up there?

We heard that
you move furniture.

Can you move
some furniture up there?

- [ Thud ]
- Oh,

- my Godl - Billy: What the hell was that?!
- Aaron: What was that?

- That was up there, dude!
- That was as you said "move."

- right up here.
- That was up there.

- Billy: What the...
- That was on the floor.

Aaron: Oh, my God.

That was up there, dude!

- That was as you said "move."
- right up here.

That was up there!

We rush upstairs
to the peony room to see

if we can find
whatever made that noise.

We're going to look
on the floor.

Aaron: Yeah, it sounded like
it was over here.

Billy: It sounded like it was,
like, right about here.

But it was on wood.

Zak: After searching
the entire room,

we don't notice anything that is
out of place or has fallen over,

and it's at this moment
that Billy receives

the following words
on his ovilus device.

Did you take your life?

"Between"?
Are you stuck here?

Why did it just...
Aaron: "k*lled."

- "k*lled."
- "between" life. "k*lled."

- cleansing.
- "cleansing."

"cleansing." oh, my God.

- Zak, it's stuck in limbo...
- Billy: Zak, come here, dude.

- Or something like that.
- "cleansing."

Zak: Is Billy getting
additional messages from Adam,

and is he now telling us that
he is stuck between

this life and the afterlife
because he was k*lled?

And is he further telling us
that this room needs a cleansing

from the evil
that has kept him trapped here?

We now make our way back down
to nerve center

where we analyze the EVP
we captured earlier.

Okay, so we captured
a really increble...

Sorry, this has been, like,
an emotional roller coaster

but really,
really cool evidence,

particularly in the peony room.

That room is insane.

We first captured a class a EVP
during our interviews,

intelligent response
saying, "yeah."

Male voice: Yeah.

Now, for our investigation,
we go in there,

and on that same recorder,
we capture a voice with vocal tone.

- Yeah.
- That means it wasn't a whisper.

This voice, Jay, was speaking
over or under my voice,

so it was talking
at the same time.

It was not Billy.
It was not Aaron.

- It's not their voice.
- No.

You can see video.
They're not talking.

It sounded good from the little,
tiny speaker from that.

Billy, I want to hear it now
in the audio program.

That's the waveform.
I didn't enhance it.

- That's you talking.
- Mmhmm.

That's the EVP.

Zak: Want to hear its voice.

Is this what you want
to do to us?

Can you believe that?

Want to hear its voice.

"Is he talking to me?"

- Can you hear the accent?
- Yeah.

- Zak: "Are you talking to me?"
- Billy: "Are you talking to me?"

it doesn't even sound
like us.

- It sounds angry.
- It sounds angry. Yeah.

- He's upset.
- It does.

Yeah
"Are you talking to me?"

yeah.
"Are you talking to me?"

- "Are you talking to me?"
- yes.

Strong accent...
"Are you talking to me?"

Want to hear its voice.

Male voice:
Are you talking to me?

Oh, and you even said,
"I want to hear its voice."

Oh, Zak!

- "I want to hear its voice."
- "I want to hear its voice."

Want to hear its voice.
Are you talking to me?

- Yeah!
- What?

Whoa! I didn't even
think of that.

- Are you serious?
- Yeah.

Gonna slow it down
a little bit.

Are you talking to me?

- Zak: That's just...
- Yeah, "are you talking to me?"

dude, that is such an accent.
It's just like...

- It's a heavy accent.
- That's awesome!

Because you're, like,
being threatening.

"I want to hear its voice."
I want to hear its voice.

Are you talking to me?

- [ laughing ]
- "are you talking to me?"

dude, that is...
And then it got us.

We were all emotional, like, all
this weird stuff. It's crazy.

[♪♪]

Zak: We knew this hotel
housed something

with the power
to mutate emotions.

I fought him over it.

I was arguing
and shouting at him.

Zak: This entity took us
to the brink of real violence.

"Hurt 'em. Hurt 'em all."

Zak: But in the end,
we stood strong.

This isn't gonna destroy us.

We're not gonna k*ll each other.
