Ghost Adventures 17.5 Halloween Special: "The Haunted Museum Live" Review
Ghost Adventures Hallowe'en Special Live from the Haunted Museum was the buzzword on everyone's lips for weeks. The other one being Dybbuk Box - as Zak said he would open it, of course there were no guarantees he would have done that. Though there were some amazing captures of EVPs, disembodied voices and SLS footage too, as well as thermal shots. With the majority of the world left on tenterhooks until they could see a recorded version of the show, as the Facebook feed was limited to four cameras and endless droning music!! Though there were technical difficulties and people reporting what was happening to them, as well as strange pet behaviour too. My Facebook feed went off a couple of times too and was met with this:
To be honest I wasn't really going to review this episode, not for any particular reason, mainly time, but having watched it, there was so much to comment on and mention. The most obvious being the coveted (right word?) Dybbuk Box opening and come on there can't be anyone out there who doesn't know the history and stories behind this now. So I was a little shocked the Rabbi who contacted them Rabby Shea Harlig, was not aware about it or had heard of it. Though being a Rabbi he should have had some knowledge of it.
Zak's interview later after the show: The Rabbi said he got a call from a friend and wasn't sure what he had to do. Zak questioning him on his word of "script". Now he said he believes in the Box and taking possession with another person. He wasn't 'familiar' with that Dybbuk Box. There wasn't a script and he never met Zak. Zak was upset with his crew as they didn't tell him what he was meant to do here. The Rabbi studies Jewish mysticism.
Perhaps it was just me but when the Rabbi said "script" I assumed he meant script as in religious script, scripture; you know being of different religions! I didn't even refer or allude to the fact he was talking about the show being "scripted." Come on you have that word imprinted too much on your brain! Not everyone automatically jumps to 'script' being associated with having lines to say and with this being fake!
(From my Zak book back in 2015.)
However, I said the same thing Zak told the crew a few seconds before he did, in that how he could have come there knowing nothing about it, then claim he could put the demon back in the Box if it was released and then changing his mind. I know Chris Fleming said he could have been affected by something to make him say that, or have been afraid, but it's common sense in many ways, why say one thing and then claim the opposite. Especially if it's something a part of Hebrew myth and a part of your own religion. Anyway that aside, whilst Zak was in convo with said Rabbi, the guys were having some heated voices coming through on the spirit box. Heated as in serious, with voices saying on the spirit box, "don't open it" several times over and the one arrogant one saying "open it!"
With Aaron having doubts and wouldn't come into the room at first since he was being overcome emotionally and was decidedly against opening it. The thought entering my mind what if he just went ahead and pulled the doors open! Especially if his feelings took him over. Since at first he also wouldn't even touch Zak's hand when he asked him to, yet later on did a U-turn and entered the room, but also touched the box on a few occasions. The camera did move twice as I saw it when I managed to stick around and watch it on Facebook.
I heard some laughing when Zak was by the box too. So much for Zak telling Aaron he's not touching this, he later touches it a few times, as said.
Aaron also wanted to remove the salt around the box, what would have been the point of that if it wasn't going to be opened, losing some of its protection like that. Then Billy getting 'religion' puck whilst Zak was conversing with the Rabbi. A little off putting in that he did say he wasn't familiar with the Box, but also religion coming through could have been a dig at the Rabbi claiming this. "Abort" also comes through not to open the box. Why was the production crew messing with Billy's packback? Zak mentions Deadly Possessions show about the Box ep and how that Rabbi told them about the Box.Finally they gave up on opening it and I knew they wouldn't in the end, but it was a good thing that they didn't as who knows what would've been unleashed. With Lady Snake around and her dabbling without telling anyone who or what she conjured, could considerably have made matters much worse.
Lady Snake didn't want to say anything and then she mentions "she" being attached to Zak. Chris dreamed about an old woman in period costume, then she replies they're picking up on the owner of the museum house, Letty.
As for the Demon House segment, I really need to stop watching this, got headaches everytime I watched it and pain in my right eye and now this time round had stomach ache when watching it here. Chris was at the Demon House when Zak was filming the doco but it didn't make the final cut. When Chris went back there last year he saw a black mass appear and vanish into the ground. Portal to the museum or some from of link here?
Spirit box session in Demon House room with Chris:
Chris: "how many entities are attached to this?"
Answer: "6."
Zak's name comes through as clear as day!
Chris: "rape twice, music, hearse, street kids...God is dead..."
Zak: "how many entities are attached to the stairs?"
I heard 3 then 12.
Zak: "what are you gonna do to me?"
I hear "kill you" in a male voice...NB: Not at the same part when Zak asks "how do you feed?"
That session was really powerful. A shame the spirit box was used though as it has quite a lot of interference coming through on it.
Then the session with Peggy and Tour Guides Staysha and Shealee where she says Staysha's name about twice and Billy caught that massive orb on the thermal camera too. There were some orbs around on the camera on Facebook. Peggy is removed from the case by Zak for the first time since the museum opened a year ago.
The orb Billy captures on the full spectrum.
Though what's the point of a spirit box session if you're not going to repeat that word!! As Staysha doesn't want to say it and neither does Shealee! Yeah just have a two-way conversation instead! Sounds like "horny."?? Ha ha really funny! Sorry but if you're conducting an investigation, or taking part in one, you say what you heard or don't bother saying anything!
The ep began with the guys in the Oddities Room and Zak talking of a 'new' doll there named Lily. He bought from Portland. Apparently Lily was German and made of real human hair. The girl whom she belonged to suffered an awful amount of abuse. Here's where Billy caught a small figure on the SLS coming from the case and they felt bouts of cold air circulating around them. See here (taken from Zak's Twitter - yeah dude I still see your tweets! Ha.)
Billy got a message "Hair - actually - won't." As Zak touched the doll for the first time.
Some great EVP captures too, as well as Zak hearing the "yes" disembodied voice as he was taking Dakota to the Art Gallery which houses Bela Lugosi's mirror. When he asks "is somebody down there?" The "Yes" can be heard clearly!! without any enhancements.
As Zak saw a face there. That face seemed to be there before he caught it, I don't know if anyone noticed but I said that to sis and no I hadn't read any tweets beforehand. I was going to read some, but changed my mind as you can see from my tweets (not that anyone's interested! ha.)
Here as he's taking the pic: I just noticed there seems to be a face underneath at the bottom of the mirror too, it actually looks like an open mouth. God my eyes gone blurry!
And this is a face I see before he even thinks of taking a photo
Then this is what he captures below, does this not look like Zak's face distorted?
In the basement the voice sounds like "hear me,or heed me??" I didn't hear the child's voice when Zak replays the recorder. Though Lady Snake was there being evil and arrogant about conjuring some entities who were having fun upstairs and kept saying they're in a candy shop! Patti Negri came in and they met each other gain, but I didn't find the basement part interesting. Nothing to do with Patti, just Lady Snake.
Nerve centre with Dave Schrader captures an orb that comes through the door and trails away but is a large orb.
A shame the Ouija board session didn't last very long, it was more interesting than that conjuring she was up to in the basement and I would've wanted to see more on that. Though that 'Zozo' (there typed again!) name did come through. As well as 'MAG.' (Don't vote for MAGAts - sorry if only they had gotten another 'A' there!) At least Jay did close the session. I'd much rather have watched this than a lot of the other things that went on there. On the board they got the letters:
R
MAD
VC MAG
Anyway will watch again so can add everything else seen and heard!
Zak and his earpiece though was a bit loud wasn't it, could hear all the voices coming through, like at the end, go to ad break, cut now, end it" Agh!! "We've gotta go out, wrap it up Zak, we gotta go to break!"
