Paranormal Lockdown 1.6 "Kreischer Mansion"

The season finale proved to be every bit as exciting and interesting as the opening episode of this show, living up to its expectations of being an informative new concept and surpassing that.  It delivered results, not just evidence, captured from a 72 hour lockdown, but also how really putting yourself out there and interacting with the spirits can lead to a much more worthwhile investigation. As most things happen, or I should say many things happen when the spirits got to know Nick and Katrina over the time period.  As well as the investigations, Nick and Katrina are such a great team. No competition, no egos, no battles over finding the best evidence, or arguments.

Kreischer Mansion was one place I'd like to see, being into the mansions/homes.  The energy there didn't immediately strike as being dark, aside from that one room on the second floor, the one that kind of kept calling out to them and leading them astray, or off-point from their investigations, as if they should spend all of their time in that one room.  The one where Nick felt like something was trying to possess him and the evil vibes.  As well as the same room where Katrina's name was constantly called out.  And something being thrown there too.  To Katrina being grabbed on her elbow, which she hates, i.e being touched.  It's no wonder no one spent a night in that room, it would've proven to be next to impossible and dangerous.

The best evidence of the night was when Nick actually got "I'm Edward Kreischer" on the EVP.  Reinforcing he was still around, Edward was the one who committed suicide and his house was also the one which burnt down.  Had a feeling of deja vu whilst watching, the feeling I've seen the house before, something eerie anyway.

After the seance I wonder if they returned to that one room for one last time to see if they got anymore negativity or responses.  Even during the seance it was as though once again that room was attempting to distract, to pull them away from what they were trying to do in closing the doorway opened by the seance conducted by Edward's brother Charles and Frieda.  What I wanted to know is whether there was still activity in that room or whether this decreased after their own seance, using medium Colleen and whether the atmosphere in the mansion was still the same or if it changed.  Also was Edward still there and was it Edward on the EVP recorded during the seance, saying he was sorry, was that for taking his own life, or being driven to do it.  I ask since when Nick turned on the Geobox in the morning and Edward came through, Nick asking if he'd like some breakfast, sure there was a 'nooo' there in response.

The voice on the Geobox that says, "kill him," has an accent.  After Nick asks if something bad happened here, the voice replies, "I was hunted..."  If that was Edward and it did sound like him, it suggests there was more to his death just a suicide.  Considering the bad luck he encountered, including having his house burned down too, or was he driven to do it.
Though I have to also say that the Mafia killing could have also involved their intended victim hunted down and murdered too as he was lured there.  I was half expecting something to appear on the thermal camera and also on Nick's phone when he took the stills in that dark area of the doorway behind them, but nothing, aside from the creepy crawlies.  Katrina was right to wear her hat, I'd have done the same!  Ha.

Another compelling episode with some excellent findings as the season ends.  Hopefully there will be another season.  Though it's easy to say 6 episodes weren't enough for those of us watching, I'd also say 6 were enough for Nick and Katrina since they have to actually go through the rigours of the investigation and the lockdown itself, subjecting themselves to 72 hours of physical and mental exhaustion, whilst putting themselves out there completely.  Another 6 eps will do us just fine!
