01x03 - A Terrifying Truth

[bunniefuu]

I am here at
the Westerfeld Mansion

in San Francisco,

and with me
is rapper/actor, GaTa.

Whoo! What's up, Kesha?

Ey, it's time to go get scary.

Greetings, Earthlings.
Kesha here.

When I'm not on stage,

I'm exploring my connection
to the supernatural.

This is my twisted journey
into the heart of darkness.

I'm surrounding myself
with top paranormal experts...

I heard a growl. I heard it.

[screaming]

and I'm bringing along
my friends

for the whole terrifying trip.

Is there a spirit here?

[screams]

Anybody that know me

knows I love staying
in a super-haunted house.

It's kind of my thing.

So I'm here in San Francisco

staying at
the Westerfeld Mansion,

home to lots of weird activity.

And I brought my friend,
GaTa, with me.

Yo, Kesha, what up?

GaTa's amazing.

He's an actor on
the hit showDave.

He's a rapper.

He's just so talented,

and he has the best energy.

Okay, GaTa.

Do you believe in
the supernatural?

- Nah.
- No?

I'm not falling for it.

Why are you here, just to hang?

Because Houdini
stayed at this house.

The legendary, iconic Houdini
was at this house.

That's why I wanna come.

The original entertainer.

That's what I'm sayin'.

As a kid, I used to be in Vegas

buying all the cheap
magic tricks on the boardwalk,

trying to learn 'em and stuff.

He did some of the dopest,
coolest magic tricks.

I just wanna tell him
I love him.

That's beautiful.

Good vibes.

But I kind of love
that you're skeptical,

'cause we're
spending the night there.

When we're sleeping
in the middle of the night,

I wanna see if you scream.

- [laughs]
- Man, that's crazy.

I'm super-curious
how he's gonna respond

if and when spooky [bleep]
starts happening.

I wonder if we're gonna
turn him into a believer.

We here.

There it is!

[GaTa] Whoa,
I love the aesthetic.

I'm excited to go in, dude.

Come on, we need to get up here.

- Where our bags at? Come on.
- Let's go.

[Kesha] The Victorian
Westerfeld House,

perched atop one of the
tallest points in San Francisco,

is considered one of the most
haunted mansions on the west coast,

drawing in curious characters
from the fringes of society

for decades.

In the 1890s,

master illusionist Houdini
conducted telepathy experiments,

sending messages across the
bay from the mansion's tower.

And in the 1900s,

Marconi, a famed Italian
inventor and electrical engineer,

reportedly sent the first
radio signals on the west coast

from the very same tower.

In the 1920s,

a Russian colonel was
m*rder*d inside its walls.

In the '60s,

the first Manson family
k*ller, Bobby Beausoleil,

is said to have gained
his inspiration to m*rder

at this exact location.

And into the '70s,

the Church of Satan's founder,
Anton LaVey, and his followers

practiced satanic
rituals in the mansion.

The list goes on.

And now, we're here.

Why are so many curious
characters drawn here?

Is it coincidence?

Or is there a supernatural
force calling out from within?

And why is this place now
so infamously haunted?

I'm opening myself up

to get to the bottom of
what the hell is going on

in the Westerfeld Mansion.

Can't believe we're
about to sleep here.

Hold on, wait.

Ladies first.

Let's go!

Can't believe Houdini
walked these steps.

- I love this for you.
- Yeah, he was one of my idols.

Whoa.

That's creepy.

[GaTa] Look... Is
it moving by itself?

[Kesha] Sure is.

Wow,

the [bleep] doorknob is moving.

I did. I think I
caught it on camera.

I'm not totally sure.

I tried to.

But I did see it, yes.

[GaTa] Wait, wait, wait,
wait, wait, wait, wait wait.

Did you see the
doorknob twisting?

- That's crazy.
- The spirits are ready for us.

Ain't nobody behind that?

Oh, wow.

- That's crazy.
- That just makes me excited.

If feels very welcoming to
have the doorknob open for me.

Like...

they want us here.

Whatever this energy is,

we're supposed to
be here right now.

I'm gonna close us in here.

[GaTa] Immediately, Jim, he's
the owner of this creepy house

and he got his boy,
Kelly, who's the caretaker.

I can't wait to meet these guys.

I got a lot of
questions for you, Jim.

So, Jim, when did you
move into this house?

I bought the house in 1986.

I've lived here 35 years now.

Wow.

It has a notorious reputation.

It was for sale for over a year

and nobody wanted
to buy it because, uh,

there's some strange things that
have occurred here during the years.

[Kelly] There's been a lot of
things that have happened.

We'll tell you a little
bit more about that

when we go on
the rest of the tour.

So, the second
owner of the house

was a very prominent
builder in San Francisco,

John Mahoney,

and he was the one who
invited Marconi and Houdini

over to the house to
practice the supernatural,

which very big at the turn of the
century and in the Victorian era.

So, he invited
them up to our tower

where Marconi did the first
west coast broadcast of radio

and Houdini sent telepathic waves
over to Oakland, I guess it was.

Have you ever experienced
anything paranormal in here?

Oh, yeah.

Well, the strangest thing that's
ever happened to me in this home,

I was in the, uh, bedroom...
I live in the master bedroom,

which you'll be
staying in tonight...

- Yay!
- And, uh,

I was in bed,

and then, all of a sudden,

I felt something
get into bed with me.

I could feel the mattress.

I could feel
something laying down,

the weight of a person.

It... it was scary.

Everybody else who's lived
here or stayed here for a while

has had some experiences.

[GaTa] That's crazy.

One of my roommates,
who was a famous rock star,

was in the bathroom
upstairs on the second floor

sitting on the toilet,

the doorknob turned,

he opened the door,

there's nobody there.

That just happened
to us on the front porch.

This doorknob right
here, when we walked up,

she opens it,

it just keeps turning,
turning, turning.

Well...

You know what makes me feel good
about that creepy [bleep], though?

It happened to a rock star.

- So we're in good company.
- [Kelly laughing] That's good. Yeah, "rock star."

- Let's go!
- Yeah.

Oh, and you're sleeping
in his old room tonight.

That's crazy. Bad.

- That's hard.
- Mmm-hmm.

Well, I would like to give
you the keys to the house.

Have a safe time tonight.

And Kelly would like to
give you a tour of the house.

Are you guys ready to have fun?

Hell, yeah. I'm ready.

The energy of this house
makes me feel like, I don't know,

I just... I wanna get
really weird in this house.

It is inspiring to be weird

and like artistic and free.

[Kelly] This is the
family dining room.

[GaTa] Oh, I would have loved
to brunch and lunch in here.

- [Kelly] Right. You know.
- [Kesha] This is beautiful.

[GaTa] Yeah, this is hard.

[Kelly] This is where,
uh, Mr. LaVey used to do

some of his pre-ritual dinners.

[Kesha] Wow.

Oh. My camera just died.

I'm gonna hand
this off real quick.

I feel like this house
has wild energy.

This is like where
they put ashes at, yo.

You sure you ain't got
Houdini in here, man?

This is insane, dude.

This house, to me,
feels like a party house.

This house has
entertained a lot.

But as far as the Russian
assassination that went on,

this is the room over
here, the breakfast room.

Right here.

[Kesha] Ew, I don't
like this room as much.

[Kelly] And, uh...

- [Kesha] Ooh.
- [GaTa] It's colder in here.

- Yeah.
- [Kelly] It is colder in here, isn't it?

The temperature does
change in this house a lot.

And is that because of draft

or is that you think
because of energy and spirit?

You know, I mean, I would like to
think it's because of the draft sometimes

but I definitely have had
a couple of experiences

where I said, "Wait a
minute. What is going on?"

She's dying again.

Did you just change it?

No, she dead.

See, this is part of it.

This is part of it.

There is electronic
stuff going on here.

This is just more
evidence of it.

- So, let's talk about that for a real quick second.
- [Kesha] Yeah.

The house tryin'
to k*ll your camera.

[chuckling] The house
is trying to k*ll my camera.

There's a lot of electronic
activity the last few days.

As we were getting
ready for you guys to visit,

cleaning up the
house, we went into

the bedroom which you're
gonna be staying in tonight,

the master bedroom,

and the clock at


the alarm just started
going off... by itself.

Nobody, obviously,
set the alarm.

We were surprised by it.

And as we turned
to look to the alarm,

the clock just died. It went...

[imitates clock dying]

and stopped itself.

-You know, but... -My
batteries dying again.

So watch your phone, you know.

Yeah.

- Really?
- Yeah.

No way!

Yeah way!

Why though?

What? Is... is this for real?

Nothing on here is fake.

Like, we're not
gonna [bleep] with you.

- Yeah.
- I did.

- [GaTa] I did hear that [bleep], though.
- I did hear that, too.

[Kelly] Whoa.

- What?
- Hold on. Let me just...

- Come.
- What? Run.

[GaTa] Where my knife at?

[Kelly] You heard it.

- You just heard this now. Yeah.
- [Kesha] I did hear it.

[GaTa] Oh, man.

You sure that ain't
coming from outside, man?

[Kelly] I'm not kidding you.

Y'all sure in a rush.

Why y'all runnin' to go
see some scary [bleep]?

[Kesha] Whoa!

[Kelly] So that's the clock.

- [Kesha] Whoa.
- I'm at a loss.

The alarm started going off.

Sorry. I'm just a little
discombobulated,

because to hear
that again just now,

that was super-weird.

Super-crazy.

- Yeah.
- [Kesha] I did.

- So this is the alarm you were talking about.
- Yeah.

This one just went off
when we were downstairs.

- What, this one?
- Yeah.

It got a battery.

So, we were downstairs
talking to Kelly about spirits here

or entities,

energy communicating
through electronics.

And right at that exact moment,

the alarm up here went off,

so we came running.

And it was at the exact
same time my camera died

for about the third
time in about...

three to five minutes.

I mean, that, I need to...

I'm at a loss.

That is kind of crazy.

This is the master?

[Kelly] This is the
master bedroom,

and this is where John
Mahoney and William Westerfeld,

the first two
owners of the house,

passed away in this room.

Is this the bed they died in?

This is the bed they
died in, I believe.

And this is your room.

The dead bed.

Great.

[GaTa] I'm about
to lay right here

just to show you I ain't scared.

Do it. Try it. Just lay.

[grunts]

- What are you doing?
- Yes.

You're asking for a haunting.

I'm just sayin', dude,

what's the worst
that could happen?

You know what I'm sayin'?

I'm not gonna answer that.

- This is crazy.
- [laughing]

Nah, I'm not a believer
in the paranormal,

so that's why I
wanna stay the night

and see what happens,
you know what I'm sayin'.

Because you never know

until you know.

You wanna hear something crazy?

- What? Yeah.
- You know how I just laid down in that bed, right?

I swear to God I feel
something in my back.

- Uh-uh.
- Dude, I got like a... like a sharp pain.

- Well, this is the bed where Jimmy had his experience.
- That's crazy.

My back is hurtin'.

That's crazy.

Would you call it paranormal?

Uh...

I don't know. Maybe
I'm moving too fast.

Let's... I don't wanna
be... Let's go, come on.

I'm still not convinced
yet, you know.

The body does weird
thing, but come on.

[Kelly] Maybe we should
take you to your bed?

[GaTa] All right,
come on. Let's see.

Let's go!

Is this me right here?

- This is you.
- Ooh!

Oh, this is my type of room.

Yeah, I could be right here,
you know what I'm sayin',

- with my latte in the morning.
- [Kesha giggles]

This is tight, bruh.

Here in this room at night,

you can hear kind of murmurs.

Not what exactly
a person's saying,

but you will hear
people talking.

- So...
- [GaTa] That's crazy.

There's definitely some stuff
that's happened in this room.

That is kind of creepy.

All right, so I'm gonna take
you down now to the library.

So...

- [GaTa] Oh, hell no.
- [Kesha] Whoa! Love this room.

Wow!

This is where I had
my first big experience.

I started going through the
books right down here on this shelf,

and then a huge rush of
energy came into the room

and the room went 20
degrees colder immediately.

And there was just... almost
like a teacher scolding you.

Like, "Stop doing
that." You know,

"Quit doing what
you're doing right now."

But I never looked up at it.

But like, seriously,

-I couldn't believe that that
was happening... -[Kesha gasps]

- Did you see that?
- [GaTa] Yeah, I just saw the light flicker.

[Kelly] I'm telling you.

- [Kesha gasps] Stop.
- I seen it again.

It's just crazy.

[Kesha] Hello?

They say you can
communicate with the spirit world

through lights and electronics.

Well, I wanna
communicate with Houdini.

Houdini, if you listenin',

bring me some of your
magical powers, bruh.

Hmm!

[Kesha] I [bleep] you not,

my battery's dead again.

Well, it is an old camera, too.

I mean, that's true.

My camera's old,

but I haven't had this
problem with it before.

Now, my battery's fine.

- I'm serious.
- Whoa.

It's fine now.

That's what I'm saying,
that old [bleep] got a glitch.

Maybe.

The vibe I'm getting
is that whatever's here

likes to communicate
through electronics.

I feel like there is some sort of
connection between the radio signal,

the telepathy.

I think back to how Houdini
was trying to communicate

and Marconi was
trying to communicate.

And who did they actually
end up communicating with?

What did that open?

[clapping and chuckling]

'Cause it feels different
than a traditional haunting.

It feels charged
with something else.

Our maintenance guy, Nick, is
gonna be here in just a little while.

Ask Nick about some stories.
He's got some good stories.

- This is goodnight and good luck.
- Goodnight.

- All right, brother.
- Thanks, guys.

This is still not
scary yet, Kesha.

You're not scared at all?

Yeah, still not scared.

I'm not gonna lie, though,
my back did feel different.

How does it feel now?

I feel like I'll be good.

I'm super-excited
that GaTa's skeptical

because that's like
challenging the house.

Like, show us, show
us what's going on here.

All right, let's just take
a minute, wait for Nick.

Yeah, Nick gotta replace
these janky lightbulbs, man.

Hmm.

I don't know.

We're gonna keep
continuing this tour.

We about to meet up with
Nick the maintenance guy.

He's gotta, you know, make sure
everything is all tight around here,

keep it all handy and dandy,

and I'm excited.

- What's up, bro?
- How ya doin', man?

I wanna learn more
and more and more.

That's what I'm eager to do.

[Nick] When I walk in here,

it's like there's the
energy of a nightclub.

I thought the same exact thing!

- I wanna get naked.
- Yup.

- I wanna dance.
- Yup.

I want like debauchery.

[Nick] I think that's a lot to do
with the energy that this house has.

So, Kelly mentioned you've had
some really weird experiences here.

- Do you wanna tell us?
- Sure, yeah, um...

My most intense experience,

we were doing a little
kick-back for my birthday,

and we had some
people hanging out

and havin' some
drinks up in the tower,

um, and I had something
literally paralyze me.

-[gasps] -All the
sudden I'm like,

"Guys, I can't move."

The presence up there
has, without a doubt,

made itself known to me.

-But... -Should we
go to the tower?

We can. Absolutely.

Nick talking about
being paralyzed,

I don't...

I don't seek to conjure
any of that energy.

You'll see.

- Like, that's what I came here to see...
- [Nick] All right, all right,

-let's... -Like, make
me a believer.

You know what I'm
sayin'? Let's see.

Come on!

Wow!

Bro, this is sick up here.

[Nick] Isn't it? Some of
the best views in the city.

So this would be where
Marconi sent out the radio signal,

this would be where Houdini
tried his telepathy experiment

- in this room.
- Yes.

All positive things, right?

Those are all positive.

Then I believe it
gets into, like, um...

It gets a little
darker, absolutely.

This was also a
satanic spell tower.

When Jimmy first
bought the place,

a lot of the history
was still here,

including the pentagram
that was still on the floor.

Uh, which is why the
ceiling is removed, as well,

to allow for better energy flow.

So this was a
place that was used

for the occult dark arts.

Yes.

Ooh.

Where were you when you
got temporarily paralyzed?

I was sitting right here,
having a conversation to...

With some friends that were
sitting right where you are.

And it was literally just like
an elephant was sitting on me.

Every time I tried
to pick up my arm,

it would be like every
piece of muscle I have

to get it like this.

And I just couldn't.

It felt like it was trying to
make its presence known to me.

It was using a show of force.

[Kesha shudders] This is
scaring the[bleep] out of me.

Are we in danger staying here?

Are you playing with energies
that we don't understand?

Absolutely.

That's when things
become dangerous

is when they attach to you and
then they come home with you.

And it happens.

Sleeping here in a bed that
multiple people have died in,

I hope the darkness that
Nick was talking about

doesn't come for me.

You ready to sleep here?

I'm kind of
sketched out about it,

but, yeah, I'm down.

I do wanna stay to see if
this house is really creepy.

And then it's like,
on the other hand,

it's like, man, I don't believe,

but the only way I'ma find
out is if I spend the night.

[Kesha knocking]

GaTa.

I brought you some things.

Okay...

Camera, motion-activated.

So if something moves,

creeping around...

- It does pick up audio, too. I see the speakers.
- Yeah.

Then this thing,
this is interesting.

This is a Rem Pod.

This senses electromagnetic...

- [device beeps]
- energy.

So, like, if anything
comes close to it,

- It'll do that.
- [device beeping]

- All right.
- Yeah, I want it to be real sensitive.

Just in case
anything come in here,

it's just gonna pick up,
you know what I'm sayin'.

[laughing] Okay. Goodnight.

- All right.
- Good luck.

You too. Good luck, Kesh.

Bye!

My [bleep] going
off. You hear that?

[device beeping]

GaTa.

Ugh.

Somebody here?

You were beeping.

[device beeping]

Hi!

Oh, now I hear it.

Who's here with me?

I'm getting comfortable.

Can I sleep here?

- [device beeping]
- [GaTa] Whoa.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

We not even close to it.

- [Kesha laughing]
- We're not even close to it.

-I'm off this energy. Hold on,
I'm... -[Kesha laughing] Wait!

Don't leave me alone in here.

I'm off that, Jack.

We going back to the top.

This how we doin' it.

So much for anybody
saving my from this [bleep].

I just keep thinking about

which side the man died on.

I'm trying to decide
which side to sleep on.

I'd like to leave him...

Aah!

- [device beeping]
- [laughing nervously] No!

This is it right here. Look.

Ain't no beepin'.

This is better right here.

Who wants to sleep with
all that beeping anyway?

Yeah. She'll be good.

Ey, good luck.

Ah, man.

Now this is wild.

Her thing was going off
and mine wasn't, man.

It's all about energy.

[device beeping]

Whoa, whoa!

That's crazy.

I am getting out of here, y'all.

I gots to go.

GaTa is about to exit.

Yo.

-Yo. -I'm getting outa here, yo.

Why?

This spot is crazy.

- I'm getting out of here.
- Okay.

I gotta go.

I'll see you tomorrow?

- Goodnight.
- Maybe see you tomorrow!

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
I'ma definitely show up.

You know, but.

I'm out.

GaTa's abandoning me.

You know what I'm
sayin', it's just crazy.

It just makes you really think,

like, damn, that
[bleep] really is haunted.

You know what I'm sayin', you don't
wanna play with that type of energy,

you feelin' me?

Bye, GaTa.

GaTa left.

Like, GaTa out.

So. [smacks lips]

Yeah.

I can't wait for the
sun to come up.

I hate this.

Goodnight.

Day one presented far
more paranormal happenings

than I've ever
experienced in a single day.

Hello?

And it didn't stop at night.

Alone in the house, I
experienced disembodied voices...

No!

- [snarling]
- nightmares

and full sleep paralysis.

Is something trying to harm me

or just get my attention?

The mission at
this point is clear.

We need to listen.

What is the mansion
trying to tell us?

My night left me with more
questions than answers.

I'm now even more
interested in learning the truth

about the Westerfeld Mansion

and why this
place is so haunted.

Hello. Would you
like to come back in?

- Uh, yeah. I'm fine with that today.
- All right.

- How are you?
- [GaTa] Oh, I'm good, I'm good.

- Whoo.
- [Kesha sighs]

[GaTa] Man, I mean, I
have to really understand

and respect the house, you know.

It has ancient history,
so it's only right.

Once I really thought
about it and slept last night,

I was just, like, I gotta
respect that house.

Even the evil souls
that were in here,

I still gotta respect it.

It's just be more open-minded,
just be ready to learn

about energy, communication.

That's crazy.

I feel like I'm broadening
my way of thinking,

like the Great Houdini.

So just listen. You
know what I'm sayin'.

Whether it's a
ghost talking to you,

whether it's whatever,
just receive it.

So how'd you sleep?

Like a baby in that hotel.

I did not sleep.

I had terrifying dreams.
I had sleep paralysis,

where I woke up but
my body couldn't move.

I had something
literally paralyze me.

[gasps]

That's bizarre.

The energy of the house,
it like really got to me.

And I definitely think it has something
to do with the sleep paralysis.

But are you up for
investigating the house still?

Somebody's trying
to tell us something.

It could be Houdini,
Anton LaVey,

somebody.

We are terrible
listeners so today,

my goal, my
intention is to listen.

It's a lot of signals.

It's a lot of signals,

but I don't know
what it is trying to say.

Hopefully, the message
will come through

because I do feel confused.

So, the sun's gonna
set in like an hour.

We can start playing
with all this stuff.

This thing is a Ghost Box.

So this takes, like, all
different radio stations

and jumbles it,

so, theoretically,

spirits can talk through this.

And then have the
psychic come in, too,

to kind of, like, help
decipher everything.

So, her name's Sarah Lemos,

and she's one of like the most
famous psychics in the world.

Ready for that?

- Let's get it.
- All right.

[Kesha] Do you wanna
get the Ghost Box?

[GaTa] The Ghost Box.

I'm putting my
camera up on the bed.

So, GaTa, you ready?

Yup.

Oh, man.

[Kesha] We should
go into this room,

where that Russian
Colonel was assassinated.

[GaTa] I'm gonna get footage.

It's crazy that somebody got
m*rder*d in this corner over here.

So that's why I'm putting
the Ghost Box there.

Okay.

[Kesha] Hopefully, we can
communicate with spirit through it.

[indistinct radio chatter]

Is there anyone here with us?

Would you like to talk to us?

- Hello.
- Hello.

Mic check.

I'm waiting for one solid word.

- I know. Me too.
- Just one.

[indistinct radio
chatter continues]

[GaTa] Sounds like a
bunch of gibberish, but.

[Kesha] Let's try
a different room,

because my bedroom
was active as hell.

Let's go.

[GaTa] These walls,
if they could talk.

[Kesha] I'm trying
to let them talk.

Are there any spirits in this
house that wanna talk to us?

[GaTa] Tell us something.

Do you want us to leave?

That's creepy.

Yo, you wanna get out
of here or what, Kesh?

That's up to you.

He clearly said, "Yeah."

Oh, my God.

Ew, I don't like it.
That freaked me out.

Nah, we gotta find
out who that was.

You wanna go back in there?

Yeah, no... no ghost
about to punk me like that.

Crank that bad boy up.

Ghost.

State your name.

Are you Anton LaVey?

Are you Houdini?

[GaTa] Are you
the Great Houdini?

What'd he say?

"Sure."

With an accent.

[whispering] I don't think
Houdini has an accent.

He grew up in Wisconsin.

I feel very confused.

I don't know who's
trying to talk to me

or what about,

if it's dark, it it's light,

or if it's sweet and innocent,

I have know idea.

That's crazy.

[GaTa] I'm just so confused.

I'm gonna ask one more question.

Ghost, did Houdini
figure out telepathy?

Oh, wow.

My camera just died.

It did?

The battery was
full and it just died.

It shut off.

- Wow, that's crazy.
- That is crazy.

[Kesha] Is there a doorway

or a vortex,

some sort of energy?

Did Marconi send a radio signal

to some other dimension?

I heard "Get up."

- He wants us the [bleep] up.
- Get up.

Like, "Get up, go
up to the bell tower"?

Ghost, be clear.

- Let's go anyway.
- Let's go.

Houdini was up here during
his telepathy experiment.

Marconi sent off
the first radio signal.

[GaTa] A lot of[bleep]
happened up here, man.

Speak to us.

[indistinct radio chatter]

Talk.

- [Rem Pod beeping]
- Oh, [bleep]!

[Kesha] Who's up here with us?

Marconi?

[GaTa] Besides Kesha
and GaTa, who's in here?

Speak to us.

I know it's trying
to communicate,

but I don't know what that
Ghost Box is trying to tell us.

Don't you got
anymore ghost device?

I have a very old-school one.

I have like a spirit board.

Let's check that out because...

- this Ghost Box...
- We can't tell what they're saying.

We're not ghosts.

- So...
- Or are we?

You think we been here before?

I think everyone... we're
all in our own dimension.

We might just not be
able to see this dimension.

[Rem Pod beeping]

That's [bleep] crazy.

That's crazy.

Let's go try that spirit board.

Oh, my God.

- As soon as we get in here.
- [Kesha] I know.

- There's a lot of energy in here.
- I know.

All right. You wanna do this?

You take two of your
hands and barely touch it.

Is there a spirit here?

- Uh...
- I didn't do that.

- I'm not touching it.
- Oh, my God.

[GaTa] There's more.
I'm not even touching it.

[Kesha] I'm barely touching it.

Is there a spirit here?

[screams]

Did you [bleep] do that?

No.

Where'd it land at?

"T".

The plank just jumped like
it was zapped with electricity.

I don't even believe
it, and I felt it happen.

Okay.

We know there's spirits here.

I don't think we know what
they're trying to say to us

or if they're good or bad

or what it is.

Maybe we should
talk to the psychic.

We gotta bring her up here.

[GaTa] We got
a lot to figure out.

This house needs
to talk some more.

This is some other-dimension...

situation.

I have psychic coming
to help us, Sarah Lemos.

She is amazing.

Maybe kind of figure this out,

give us a little bit
of a clearer picture.

[Sarah] When I tapped in,

some of the
information that I got,

of course, it doesn't
always make sense to me,

'cause I don't know
where I'm going.

Um, a lot of times, I don't
even know where I'm flying to

except a few days prior,

because that's how I work.

So you know nothing
about this place.

No, sir.

Other than what I got,

my lovely drawings
and scribbles.

I saw power.

I heard power, like power lines.

Power, wires...

Um, I heard old radio stuff.

- And I was like, well...
- That's kind of funny, but...

That... yeah, that's accurate.

Something to do
with water and wires.

Power...

I don't... I don't know
what I was seeing.

What I'd love to do if it's okay

is do, uh, what I
call a psychic sweep.

So take you guys with
me to different places,

and I'm just gonna
randomly pull in what I get.

Whoo! I'm so
excited you're here.

- Oh, my God!
- Yeah, for sure.

And what they had told me, too,

was that the energy
moves upward,

which I have no
idea what that means.

And it feels like...
Like I said, it...

- Goes up?
- Yeah! But...

[making shaking sound]

Just like pulling

up and out, up and out...

- Okay. Wanna go up?
- If you don't mind.

Yeah, let's go.

[Sarah] Now I feel like I'm
going to a whole nother place.

Wow. The shifts and
changes in the energy,

unbelievable.

Whoa.

- There's been issues in lighting in this area.
- [GaTa] Wow, that's crazy.

Yesterday it was flickering out.

Wow...

And this is where the
spirit board jumped,

literally jumped.

And what did you experience?

Light a bolt...

- Of energy.
- Of energy.

So that's what
moves the hand, right.

So, the energy that's going,

and sometimes when
that energy is so intense,

where is that energy
gonna go but out?

[GaTa] That's crazy.

It caught me off guard.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

Can we please, please,
please go up a little further?

That's the same feeling I have
every time I'm in this house.

- So, we're gonna do it?
- Oh, [bleep] yeah.

[Sarah] Whoa!

Holy hell, the energy in here!

Uh-oh.

Wow, my heart's racing.

That's so crazy because...

There it is.

That's what I saw.

That's crazy.

"Up and out."

"Up and out."

Oh, they told me, "Send
the messages up and out."

"Send the messages up and
out, and see if I can get it back."

-[gasps] -"Send it out,
send it out, send it out,

and see if I can get it back."

- Hoo! Ooh, yeah.
- I got some body chills too!

- Hoo!
- [Kesha] Look at my arms.

[Sarah] Dude, your hair's
sticking all the way up.

[Kesha] Do you believe
this house is haunted?

- I do.
- Okay.

Any idea why?

Somebody was doing
a lot of work here.

You know, I did get seance,

I did get these types of things,

but this is beyond.

This is someone
pushing boundaries

to see if they can get answers,

- um...
- It's your boy.

"to get answers that I need."

Like, I wanna cry.

- Can we please tell you?
- Let's do it.

I just wanna know.

Houdini was doing
telepathy experiments up here

- to try to... yes.
- In here?

He was sending out like telepathic
messages to his wife across the bay

to try to see if it
could be returned back

to try to prove...

- telepathy.
- The water.

Something to do
with water and wires.

I got water. Now it
makes complete sense.

Wow.

[Kesha] Marconi sent out
one of the first radio signals

from this tower also.

So Houdini was doing telepathy,

Marconi was doing radio signals,

and it...

The Church of Satan
was doing seances.

Almost every decade, there
was just a new group of...

people on the fringe of society

coming here and
doing different, strange,

odd... things.

Kind of makes sense.

They sent out a signal.

And... people just keep coming.

And even you guys are here now.

I feel like I got a call
by somebody to be here.

It is crazy.

'Cause I'm a deep thinker,
you know what I'm sayin'.

- Mmm-hmm. Divin' in.
- Yeah, like I...

- Finding truths.
- Yeah.

And what's so crazy is

I capitalize the "T" in my name.

It goes "G", lowercase "a",

capital "T", lowercase "a".

And I capitalize the "T"

because I be feeling like
everything I say is the truth.

And I'm trying
to find the truth.

That's why I feel like...
That's why I'm here.

Oh, yeah, with the "T".

- What do you mean the "T"?
- [Kesha gasps]

- Wait, what do you mean the "T"?
- The "T"!

Bring it back. What?

Where'd it land at?

[Kesha] "T".

[Sarah] You got a personal
message from a spirit board.

That's crazy, dude.

That's crazy, dude.

That "T" don't mean
a [bleep] "T" all.

But that "T" mean a lot to me.

Like, that's [bleep] crazy.

Like, I'm not even [bleep]
putting nothin' on right now.

I ain't playin' no
actor or nothing, like,

that's [bleep] real, yo.

Like...

- It couldn't be any more personal.
- Yeah, that's crazy, dude.

-It's kind of awesome when
there's... -It's [bleep] hard.

That "T" mean something to me.

[crying] That's
why I capitalize it.

Like, that's hard.

- [bleep] hard, yo.
- You're okay.

- All right?
- I [bleep] tight, I'm tight, yo.

[Sarah] Truth.

Truth.

[Kesha] This is
all I ever wanted,

some sort of spirit
connection confirmation.

And to watch somebody...

have that moment,

it was really [bleep] beautiful.

That's my favorite part
about being a medium.

It's [bleep] hard, yo.

When someone gets a message.

[Kesha] Seeing
someone speak their truth

and be vulnerable and honest,

that's inspires me
to live in my truth

and keep leading an honest life,

even if it's uncomfortable,

even if it's awkward.

[sniffling] That's how I am.

That's how I am.

I don't need to.
But it's just, like,

'cause these tears, you
know, these tears are joy.

- You know.
- Yeah.

Can I ask you a question?

Do you think it's real now?

Yeah. I do.

[Kesha] This makes me so happy.

Yeah, me too. Like, it feels
like mission accomplished.

Like... like I been
here for a reason.

Like, you know what I'm sayin'.

That's pretty dope.

It's time we feel like peace
in this place, for the first time.

I feel like it's when you
don't understand something,

- it's scary.
- That's right.

Yeah, that's true.

[Kesha] Whether it was Houdini
who accidentally opened a gateway

or something else entirely,

I'm changed because of
the time I've spent here.

I've learned I must
stop and listen.

A subtle light flicker,

a jolt of electricity
through my body...

[screams]

or even the letter "T",

these are messages.

I have to be willing to stop
and listen to find the truth.

One thing I know for sure

is that something or someone

is sending messages
at the Westerfeld House,

and those messages
are not from this world.

And that is a wrap
on Westerfeld.

Live your truth.

Live your truth.

- Let's go. We out of here.
- Let's go.

[Kesha] Now that I've explored
the vortex that is Westerfeld,

I'm taking my girl, JoJo
Fletcher, to Mount Shasta...

[JoJo] Oh, my God, what is that?

It's some dark [bleep] out here.

A super-vortex,

where the paranormal and
legends of Bigfoot collide.

This is the thing
last videos look like.
