Ghost Adventures "Horror in Biggs"

                                                     
Another demonic-centric episode and although they were specifically asked to help here which is good for the family concerned, much prefer the episodes where there is not so much demon-orientation and darkness involved.  This show has really veered off into that direction and though it is common knowledge demons exist and are various explanations for this, religious and otherwise.  There are still no answers or getting closer on the afterlife and death.  These are not the kind of next logical progression in investigations since all that's happening is just repetition on what's gone before.  There needs to be some sort of line drawn for how many episodes can be about demons and how many are about other paranormal phenomena, such as spirits etc.

This one centred on Torrie in Biggs, California and how he was being constantly attacked by a demon, they referred to as 'he.'  There wasn't any explanation, research on how these attacks began, came to be.  Was it the land, the area, was he generally targeted as he was being affected and not his wife, Gloria.  She didn't experience anything and wasn't sure to believe him until her husband recorded the encounter on the phone and she heard noises relating to sexual activity.  Also not explained or investigated was how their neighbour was affected also and how she was driven to run from her house, only to be killed.  Torrie's words were significant when it came to this sad death when he said of himself, "the closer I come to death I believe..."  To think she probably felt this was her one chance to escape the demon and live, it took that away from her by taking her life.

Zak preferred to explore the area and left Aaron and Billy to investigate in Torrie's house and then high-tailed it outta there after they found that tall figure and the light that accompanied it.  It wasn't debunked as being a human lighting up, or anything like that.  They were experiencing camera/equipment problems so it's difficult to say conclusively what it was or wasn't.  No exploration of the history of the property, area etc as said.

The stairs where Susanne found her brother, did anyone have a flashback, deja vu, to the Demon House stairs, or was it just my mind that went there for some reason.  Since it looked like a generally creepy staircase.  All in all that town did look creepy though and didn't see many people around even when they were driving through to where the canal was during the day.

All they did was effectively confirm Torrie's experiences and that he was being affected by something demonic.  When they were getting the readings on his leg, did anyone check his back when he was having a feeling there?  No voices came through aside from the growling and I'm sure something was said on the blue tooth (see below.)  At least Torrie was rid of his demon by the Bishop's exorcism and hopefully it was the end of this nightmarish ordeal for him.  Though it was only Jay who returned to film this, what was Zak doing and why didn't he come back?  Leading Jay to have nightmares after this.

Also the figure seen, did it really look like a shadow/black figure or was it again something/someone human??  The figure on the SLS looked as if it was touching Torrie's foot/leg and really attacking, beating down on him.  When Aaron and Billy use the blue tooth device and Billy's phone for Torrie to ask questions, at around 33.01 it's not a growl but the voice says something along the lines of "you're askin' me" when they tell Torrie to ask its name.  It definitely isn't a growl.  Zak feels a sharp pain go through him which Aaron confirms he felt as well like a spear or arrow go through his head.

How many times did Zak say "situation."

RE my mention of Demon House and those stairs, seems synchronicity was on the cards again - or was it??

"While the network is still investigating how and why this happened to THIS particular episode I couldn’t help but compare these two cases especially when the “Horror in Biggs” felt like the Demon House investigation when I was there and have compared the two in recent interviews."

So I typed and posted this before I saw his tweets, you know being blocked 'n' all! HA!
