Sanditon Series 2 Episode 5

Alison (Rosie Graham) wants to leave and go back home as she’s done with Sanditon, as she feels humiliated. Fraser (Frank Blake) tells Carter (Maxim Ays) to apologize to her as it's the only way to salvage any relationship with her, although he secretly pines for her.  Later Fraser tells her she can’t let Carter drive her away like this and shouldn’t let that be her last memory of Sanditon. She confronts Carter at the Parker ball as he's surrounded by more women.  I was going to say as the sleaze is surrounded for some reason ha.  And says he should mend his ways before he hurts another girl.   Sharing a dance with Fraser as she's all dressed up as a marshmallow.   They share some more pleasant insults towards one another.  

Mary (Kate Ashfield) finds out from Lady Denham (Anne Reid) that the last Company the town was at they left without settling their debts, so she heard it from a friend.   As Esther appears to be drunk with the potion Edward's (Jack Fox) been feeding her.   Clara (Lucy Sacofsky) realizes his plan is not for baby George but revenge on her and refuses to go through with it but doesn’t do anything to make him stop.  She too had her sights set on the fortune. 

Mary tells Tom (Kris Marshall) about the news and he tells her he's lost £100 to Lennox (Tom Weston-Jones) and he won’t settle his debt until Tom pays up. Yeah like he's ever going to settle it.  Didn’t in the last town or anywhere else the Company's been.  Tom tells Arthur (Turlough Convery) he can’t put on the ball as they don’t have money for it.  The store owners retrieve their goods. Arthur comes to the rescue as his patronage at the bakery pays off and he's been given three days to clear their debts.  Lady Denham tells Tom she warned him about the company and he says he heard no such warning from her.  Tom wallows at the ball saying Sidney would’ve known what to do.  But Arthur tells him Sidney wasn’t like him as Tom had the vision for Sanditon and saw it through to what it is, not just rows of beach huts anymore.  Tom finally realizes he has a brother in Arthur and not just Sidney.  

Georgiana (Crystal Clarke) asks Arthur to chaperone her with Charles (Alex Vlahos) and he persuades Arthur to leave them alone.  Being an artist he needs his creative juices flowing with his subject alone.  Whereupon he confesses his love for her saying if he had her inheritance he would travel the world, eat fine food and stay in bed all day. He wouldn’t be working on pitiful commissions all day.  Telling her that hers is not just any portrait.  She can’t control her emotions and kisses him.  Well no red flags from Georgiana as he claims to be an artist but doesn't want to ply his trade anymore and would rather just live off the wealth.  That was a massive clue as to who he really was.  They dance at the ball together. 

Esther (Charlotte Spencer) has a turn for the worse after Edward hands her his spiked wine, giving Georgiana and Charles sneak out and he says he's leaving but he wants her to come too.  She replies as his concubine but he says as his wife.  Interrupted by Mary in the nick of time.  I still get the impression he’s the one in Antigua after her inheritance.  Since her solicitor didn’t mention any name.  Well there must be some sort of foreshadowing here with him just coming into the picture, who really knows him and he befriends Arthur of all people.  Though Arthur seems to be a good judge of character as far as Lennox was concerned.  Well Alex did play evil Mordred in the BBC Merlin after all!  

Charlotte (Rose Williams) has another new dress for the ball and she dances with Lennox.  As Colborne (Ben Lloyd-Hughes) also arrives with Augusta (Eloise Webb).  More beguiling looks are exchanged between them as he dances with her and ends up with Charlotte being upstairs with Lennox who's peeved she's still in Colbourne's employ. 

He proposes to her and then forces himself on her and kisses her even as she rejects his advances saying she made no such move on him.  Flustered she leaves and Colbourne takes her to his house.  That balcony looked like the same balcony with her scenes with Sidney and their scenes.  But they were supposed to be new assembly rooms.  Colbourne tells her about Lucy wanting to stay in London for another season.   They got married young.  There she was taken in by Lennox and had his child, Leonora (Flora Mitchell).  As Leo listens to them.  She died a few months later and Colbourne regretted his actions in his treatment of her.  Charlotte wonders why he didn’t tell her all this before.  Why would he, it was his humiliation but also his guilt. There was the Wickham story and Darcy also looked after his sister, Georgiana when Wickham was pursuing her.  They kiss. 

Ester has a turn and is taken home.  She can’t find George and she has him as he was crying. She takes him away again telling Edward he is using laudanum on her and she wanted the money for George but didn’t agree to this.  The doctor had only been giving her a placebo to ease her burden but says shes not well in the head.  As Charlotte writes to Babbington without any luck again.

Plenty was going on here least of which was Charlotte's dilemma with Colbourne after she finally learns the truth about Lennox and where she should go from here.  As well as Georgiana preparing to run away with Charles.  Of course everything will be solved in the final episode, but they rushed through these five with plenty going on whereas they would've taken a more slower approach had there been the usual 8 episodes.

Sanditon Series 2 Episode 4


Captain Carter (Maxim Ays) proposes to Alison (Rosie Graham) after getting the consent of Colonel Lennox (Tom Weston-Jones).  Alison gets in deeper with him but he doesn’t admit that he didn’t save his company and Captain Fraser (Frank Blake) is disappointed with him.  Until Carter's true colours are revealed when he proposes to her in a boat on the river and she tumbles in.  Pretty stupid thing to go boating if you can’t swim and are that cowardly.  So ITV went on an ad break here and when we returned she’d been rescued by Fraser.  She can’t hide her disappointment and being lied to.  However Fraser too is disappointed as clearly he has unreciprocated feelings towards Alison too and doesn't have a hope in her eyes, though he is the better suited to her and the better man too.  Charlotte (Rose Williams) also points out how quickly she's fallen for him and states that people rarely turn out to be as they appear.  Well all I can add is she's one to talk, especially when she seems to be more inclined to side with Lennox and everything he told her about Lucy and how Colbourne (Ben Lloyd-Hughes) took her away from him.  

Tom (Kris Marshall) can’t get the army to pay the debts amassed by them in the town but is easily talked into a bout of gambling by same Lennox (Tom Weston-James). Wonder why he’s just doing the same thing he did in series 1 all over again and can’t put his foot down.  Not having Sidney around to help him.  Though Arthur (Turlough Convery) tries and is much more in control of his life and other events than Tom, who is lost without having Sidney to fall back on.   Having lost another £100 to Lennox, he can't tell Mary (Kate Ashfield) he's resolved the money situation with him.  

Georgiana (Crystal Clarke) finds out that Sidney was protecting her fortune from a man who was planning to take it from her.  With the use of her being 'unfit' to inherit using racist and other means to do so.  Who was said man and could it possibly be Charles.  Well I had to ask considering he did get in her face quickly.  Mary (Kate Ashfield) tells her she must be well behaved so she doesn't add more ammunition to whoever that man is.  Which wasn't very helpful.  She also finds out Sydney was in Antigua cos of her and people wanted to take away her inheritance.  Mary tells her people will always be against her and she’s got to be weary. Georgiana (Crystal Clarke) agrees to having her portrait painted by Charles (Alex Vlahos) but not a nude.  He says he wants to know her and paint her soul and her chaperone, Miss Hankin (Sandy McDade) is taken aback by his paintings. 

Colbourne (Ben Lloyd-Hughes) agrees for his niece, Augusta (Eloise Webb) to come out at the garden party and make her debut at the party.  After he spies Charlotte teach Augusta and Leo (Flora Mitchell) to dance.  More sultry looks exchanged between them.  Augusta tries one of her Aunt Lucy's dresses prompting Leo to hug her, as she's the nearest she'll get to her mother in her dress.  A poignant scene as she never knew her mother and it appears Colbourne isn't really one to talk about her.  After he finds out Charlotte will also be at the party he is somewhat relieved.  Admitting he dreads the occasion even less now.  Augusta faints here as her corset is too tight and Lennox rushes to help her, adding that h feels he has Lucy in his arms again.  

Elsewhere we get the Darcy/Wickam storyline with Lennox and Rochester wannabee, Colbourne.  As he tells of his rivalry and his love being taken by Colbourne.  Where obviously it's apparent that Colbourne is the put-upon one as opposed to Lennox who can’t believe Charlotte is still in his employ.  Even if we haven't had much character development and background on his part.  Tempers flare at Lady Denham's (Anne Reid) garden party where no one eats the cake cos of sugar and slavery and many leave.  But also at the archery contest where Charlotte gets the better of both of them.  Yet is still in favour of accepting Lennox's version of events as Colbourne walks off in a huff.  

Edward (Jack Fox) continues on his plight to get his inheritance by wanting to see the baby and schemes with the butler into getting all of Esther's (Charlotte Spencer) mail from her husband.  As Clara (Lucy Sacofsky) realizes Easter wants her baby or at least look after him. Cos of her own baby problems. She tells Edward she doesn’t want to do it, drug her with the laudanum as shes been good to her, but he talks her round by saying the inheritance will be George's.  Thus ensuring she too is a a victim of his evil scheming.

Death Walker 2.15 "New Orleans Spirits With Bloody Mary"


Nick believes positive and negative energy and that we create energies ourselves from thoughts, feelings, emotions and behaviours and from other spirits.  He uses an unorthodox approach to his investigation using a ritual and see whether the ghost , a supernatural entity can latch onto humans, living people.  He's never allowed spirits to attack him physically after having them follow him home, having attached themselves to him.  After investigating the ten most haunted places in America he began to notice strange occurrences affect his everyday life through a multitude of positive and physical energies.  Something similar happened to him after he investigated Hinsdale House too for Paranormal Lockdown.  When he had the entities follow him home and came through the Geoport and haunt his house.  telling him to go to Pontefract and the Black Monk House at 33 East Drive. 

He will investigate Bloody Mary's 1890's haunted house where the good ghosts left the city after Katrina and never came back.  Green orbs have been seen around the bedroom and she's sealed ghosts in the attic using holy oil.  Nick will investigate the lower part of house where she does her private work for clients and will also investigate her haunted museum before being cleansed by her ,hoping to bring him inner peace after this entire journey of 15 episodes.

Mary tells us about herself and her family came here in 1718 from the Alsace area of France.  Her family has been here since then and she's been teaching voodoo for 28 years to people.  The spirits woke her up and her voodoo house and there's a strong family tradition and her husband is a voodoo priest and son is an apprentice and she focuses on New Orleans voodoo.  Her job is to preserve the culture here.  There was a danger of losing culture after Katrina when people moved and didn't come back.  She's a priestess in the tradition of Marie Laveau.  Voodoo was practised by mixed races, every colour, every person and nationality, everybody dabbled in New Orleans (NO) voodoo.  NO was most haunted city even before they were American and before they were colonel.  There were monsters, spirits and ghosts and holy spirits back then.

NO is below sea level where life began and was easy to connect with them.  NO is below the Bible belt where people can talk about taboo things.  Big in the spiritualist movement and people came to NO to dabble in things they wouldn't do at home.  NO watches over and protects and there has always been spirit activity here.  Moved here with her young son as a single mother.  The statue in her garden showed her where to live and the statute turned to her and she took over this house.  Built 1895 and came with spirits and with the spirit of Edward.  Other spirits followed her home here.  She had a full house and she believes in spirit rights and for someone who lived in the house before to stay as they have right to remain there.  She had haunted objects here and also put some in the haunted collection in her museum.   Ghost hunts take place here.  At night she gets the most activity and speaks to them. Elementals, land spirits and a nasty one comes through just as good and bad in life.  People get touched and groped.

Nick undergoes her incantation at her ancient place bloody Mary sings in voodoo to bring the spirits around him.  She carries out a ritual around Nick.  To summon the spirits around him.  The spirits of the South: angels and gods.  The Western spirits: spirits of water, energy there, call upon them.  The spirits of the East: air, angels are there.  To dance with them.  Of the North: Green Mother, makes a simple crossroads for them to go there on the third eye and feed the blessed bread to the doll who represents her.  A special offering to the ancestors who have come before and the spirits of 144 South Henessey and Edward.  She invites them all to investigate with Nick and leave at midnight.  Use methods to communicate with such as electrical equipment.  The cigar is left out as an offering along with the liquid.  Introduces himself as Nicholas Groff.  Invites the spirits to dance with them.  Alison is the centre post in the house, the spiritual highway and will lead them in.  Let the spirit guides of Mary Laveau to come through.

Nick asks the spirits to speak with him.  "Mary" is heard on the Geoport and "We."  He asks if they know who Mary is.  Also Nick asks if the spirits remember him from before as he wants to make spiritual contact through the house with the doorway opened.  He feels a needle pierced his arm.  Investigate any physical presence.  He asks if that was them.  "Yes."  "Let me enter"  I hear.  He asks them to speak clearly.  He feels a tingling down his spine and asks if there's someone behind him, touching him?  Last time was in the Ghost Adventures ep when all the books flew off the bookshelf.  He enters one of the rooms "yes" and came across energy last time.  People get slapped there.  He asks for a name.  I heard "help me."   "Here he is...can see" after he asks if they're in the temple.  "Nick's here."  Said twice.  "Outside."  In the basement below.  

Nick asks to feel its power and energy and show people there's physical contact from their realm into our reality.  Something grabs him on his arm.  There's a mark.  The Geoport also says "there's a mark."  It's under where the pole extends all the way down from upstairs.  He tells Mary.  She says could be one of her voodoo spirits.  He wants to go deeper and his goal journey is to evolve as a human and also to evolve with the spirits.  He felt and asked for physical contact from the other side and he got that.

He heads to Bloody Mary's museum and he joins Mary and her friends.  After the seance, he investigates the upstairs apartment.  Zack and Addie arrived here a year after Katrina and she wanted to be removed from lease and the landlord wouldn't do that.  They fought and Zack strangled her, cooked her in the oven for almost 13 days.  Then jumped off the hotel building.  See Paranormal Lockdown ep.  "Yes I am/do" remember him.  Knocking comes from the bathroom.  "Nick's here."  There are also other spirits at this location and other people here.  He wants to find physical contact from behind.  She opened the doorway and wants the spirits to come through.  Another knock is heard.  Asks for any spirits from his journey to come forward.  He needs the validation someone touched his arm.  Dolls in the room.  A spirit is meant to hide in the little opening.  Nick plays the out of tune piano toy.  I heard  "Addie is that you"??  

Nick allows the spirits to communicate as they please.  He wants them to help him show there's some communication beyond the grave and show the world they can do these things together.  Give the world this message.  I liked the first Geoport in season 1 there was less echo.  He was at Bloody Mary's house ten years ago, and she brought spirits forth and opened the doorway from the other side.  He feels static electricity.  journey led him here to open the doorway, the threshold and step through further mentally and physically make connection to the other side.  To show if there's something more than dying and how they affect the living in the reality they're in.  Touched in the basement and did it follow them here.  "He's here."  Justin hears knocking.  Nick feels someone's standing in the staircase and energy moves in and out of there, all the energy when they came and went.  More balance here and more than he came here last time.  Tragic ending and feels the energy in waves but less intense than last time.  Still interaction.  IO device interaction.  Led them back to NO and Bloody Mary helped them open the doorway.

He leaves and he feels the energy lift and spirits have a sense of peace.  He's fascinated by communication from beyond and the spiritual vibe as he walks the streets and cleanses himself from the energies from the other side.  She takes him to the edge of the Mississippi and carries out her cleansing ritual.  Where Nick feeds the spirits in the water, before dunking himself underwater too.  Mary Laveau fed and where they fed the spirits too.  Takes Nick full circle in the water.  Small cleanses are done and should done by Nick all the time.  All the spirits he may have amassed with him throughout his journey in the season.  She thanks the spirits and gods walking at their side throughout the day.  Thanks them for their power and closes the way.  She sings her ritual to the spirits.  

So Nick completes his journey this season 2 coming fill circle and needing that cleansing after some of the spirits he's encountered.  Though not so much physical contact, there were some physical manifestations and a lot of knocking and voice communication in EVPs and through the Geoport and other equipment.  This season was definitely different from season 1 as that involves more communication through other forms, how ghost perceive them how they perceive the spirits, each within their own realms etc.  Such as his reference to The Others frequently. 

Season 2 was more connecting to the other side through physical touch, to show physical contact and through the two different realms with several references to how spirits perceive them in their world and the human world sees them in theirs.  It was good seeing him make a return to New Orleans (one of my fave cities) having been there a year before Katrina and then Nick travelled there with GA.  It brought back memories for me.  But also for Nick as he experienced the spirits in Bloody Mary's house that time around.  As well as when he was there for the tragic Paranormal Lockdown episode.  Good to see that the energy is less intense there now and he didn't see any dark shadows like they caught last time around the kitchen area. Wonder if Justin got cleansed as well.

Can't wait for a season 3, as Nick said in an interview with Joblocom about signing a 44 episode deal in the US, or at least hoping to!  youtu.be/5OM84qsBaDY

Sanditon Series 2 Episode 1


Sanditon series 2 has much changed.  Charlotte (Rose Williams) returns with her sister, Alison (Rosie Graham) to get away from the prospect of marriage and once they arrive, her sister persists in making sure she doesn't get away from the prospect of marring altogether.  What with matchmaking and visiting the soldier camp with Georgiana (Crystal Clarke).  Who has her own share of suitors all in want of her fortune!  Tom (Kris Marshall) finds out that Sidney was in Antigua on behalf of Georgiana and looking after her affairs, where he carked it from yellow fever, thus his non-return to series 2.  As shown from the opening scene with locals burying a coffin, a maid clearing away bloodstained sheets.  

In contrast there's Charlotte living life to the fullest at a dance, a juxtaposition of life and death probably at its finest for this opening.  As Mary Parker (Kate Ashfield) breaks the sad news to her.  Her world is turned upside down.  Deep down she might have thought one day they could somehow meet again.  Though we do get to hear Sidney's voice as he speaks to Charlotte.  Mary tells Charlotte she can grieve for Sidney but she says he had a wife who will do that for him.  Also we get a flash to his reading to her about having to marry his wife instead of her.

Ester (Charlotte Spencer) returns as her husband is away on business and finds that she has trouble having children, having had miscarriages.  Lo and behold Edward (Jack Fox)turns up too as a soldier in want of a commission.  Thus he's come to bludge off his aunt, Lady Denham (Anne Reid) agreeing to stay away from his step sister.  Of course he doesn't.  Though he does have ulterior motives even after being threatened with being disinherited.

 New buildings in the town and cue the arrival of an artist, Charles Lockhart (Alexander Vlahos) who saunters from the sea clad only in his robe and encounters Arthur with Georgiana and Charlotte.  The chemistry is apparent between him and Georgiana.  As she also sees him in the teashop.

Charlotte applies for the governess position a la Jane Eyre with Alexander Colbourne (Ben Lloyd-Hughes) who hounds her as not qualified or has experience to be a governess.  At which point she leaves.  Later he comes riding on his horse a la Mr Rochester from Jane Eyre, heck he even had a dog under the desk (who's idea was that?) and tells her she is hired.  He's a widower who has to look after his daughter Leonora aka Leo (Flora Mitchell) and his niece, Augusta (Eloise Webb) who claims she doesn't need a governess.   Who like Charlotte, are both also dealing with their own loss.  Tom of course doesn't like him.  Seems he's not as good a judge of character as Arthur (Turlough Convery) is, but of course he's seen as a bit of a buffoon, when in reality it's the other way around.  

Charlotte is also pursued by the commander of the company, Colonel Francis Lennox (Tom Weston Jones) as soon as he spots her.  Who I rather likened to Wickham - Pride and Prejudice.  Tom can't get anywhere with him and is easily taken in by him.  He also has a rivalry with Colbourne.  

Alison has two beaus in the form of Captain Carter (Maxim Ayes) and Captain Fraser (Frank Blake) - one a caddish rogue and the other one who knows he'll never get a look in with her.  As we get a sense (no pun) of Sense and Sensibility with the fatalistically doomed love affair of Marianna with Willoughby.  

Though everyone thinks governess is beneath her as there's not much career choices for women in want of monetary freedom.  Yeah I had to write that "in want of" lines since there's plenty going on here that warrants that.  This was made as fans wanted another series but it doesn't feel the same as the first series.  There's an atmospheric energy missing and it just appears routine, though fast paced.  As though it was just filmed for the want of being filmed! Ha...  Okay I will stop writing that now...

Death Walker 2.14 "Niagara Club"


In Niagara Falls, New York sits the Niagara Club and Nick was granted exclusive access to this place.  Built in 1867 by Dexter Jerauld, the first pioneer of the Niagara frontier.  The building was taken over in 1902 by the Niagara Club on New Years day.  A men's social club brought in prominent and influential people.  Also crime family members frequented the building.  The Club filed for bankruptcy in 1996.  Later it became a drug treatment facility until it was operated and brought by the Patel family in 2009.  Wanted to reconstruct and restore it to its original.  Seen dark figures, cold spots, lights flickering, hearing voices and a woman walking and disappearing.  Nick wants to document and see if something can reveal what happened here.  In 1901-1996 the club flourished.  The mob ran Niagara City.  A lot happened in the basement.  The owner, Nirel couldn't move when he slept here one night and saw a silhouette of a woman in a petticoat.  He still feels her presence.  The walls could tell many secrets.  

Nick hears sounds in the basement and trying to work out where it's coming from.  As another noise is heard.  He feels static electricity everywhere.  He says the sounds erupted as soon as night fell.  The basement is associated with the mob, politicians and other figures.  "It was them...I did" comes through after he asks if it made that sound.  Also hears "yes" twice.  Where are you "right next to you." "Prohibition" comes through when they've been talking about it.  Who made that sound?  I heard "me."  

Did you make that sound?  "Yeah" I heard.  "Yes I am" is what I heard before he asks if it's here or back there.  "Men...yes" after Nick asks if he was hurt?   Heard "help."   Are you buried beneath the ground"  "Under the ground" I also hear "stairs," as Nick was standing near to them before going upstairs.  The original bar is still there.  Footsteps are heard again.  The woman is named Beatrice.  Nick asks them to sing, party, have fun.  A woman says "sing."  Will come through again saying the same.  I hear something like "you're going to remember me..."  Nick uses a new Deco device which will light up and sound when touched.  The original mirror is still there and the bricks from the original house.  The device goes off at the bar after Nick says they left them drinks at the bar.  

He sets up the laser grid in the basement and it activates.  Using the Geoport again.  He asks if the mob hurt him and if he was killed.  "Right here, Justin."  Says "Nick too.  "I was killed."  Nick asks right here and answers "it is."  No one wants to grab Nick's hand.  Nick feels cold energy through him.  The library has mirrors and books and he feels different in there.  He asks if it can show itself in the mirrors I hear "yeah."  I hear "absolutely it is" after Nick asks if her name is Beatrice.  Nick should've used the other listening device and not just the Geoport.  I don't like this one it's not as good as the first Geoport he used in Paranormal Lockdown, could hear more on that.  

He doesn't feel welcomed in the other rooms with the sliding glass door.  They don't know much of the history of the building.  They're looking for Beatrice.  He asks about the mysteries that happened there in wanting to help the owner.  He asks if they like what the owner's doing here and like the owner?  A woman says "yes" after he asks if she woke up the owner.  "Yes it is"  Beatrice in response.  "I am" I hear after Nick asks if they're being followed like she follows the owner.  "Upstairs."  Something is thrown at them and it's cold.  

Something messes with their equipment.  Justin hears someone sneak up behind them.  Nick says the spirits have relocated now after guiding them into the darkness and uncovering new puzzle pieces, they're now silenced by death.  Nick says there's residual and intelligent energy here.  Something tragic occurred there.  Thought this one was a bit of a lack lustre ep, not much happened aside from the voices and the music was too loud.  It sounded like a feature film playing and drowned out a lot of the sound.

Death Walker "Myrtles Plantation"


Myrtles Plantation is haunted and attracts visitors and paranormal investigators a lot.  Nick needs to question why it's haunted.  Built in 1796 by General David Bradford who left his family behind and was involved in the whiskey rebellion.  It was sold to Judge Woodruff and his wife Sarah had three children. 21st July 1923 Sarah, his daughter died after Yellow Fever and his only son also died from Yellow Fever and then his other daughter died too.  Chloe the slave was mentioned in an old ghost story told by a former plantation owner who haunted the property.  In other stories she wasn't named as a slave. Mentioned in the poisoning of the Woodruff family and alleged site that ten murders took place here. But only one man, Winter was shot by a man on horseback.  Many people died of Yellow Fever and a strange number of events show something unusual is going on here and is haunted by something or someone.  He took Tessa with him to help give insight on events lost in time.  Make physical contact at the plantation.

He hasn't been back here for years after Ghost Adventures - GA.  Tessa wants to let them speak and know they're here out of respect and get them comfortable enough to get involved.  Nick says so many tragic events leave behind their energy, their conscious thoughts can be left behind.  Tessa allows spirits to rely on filling in the details for her; like "seeing a documentary play out in my head."  Hester says thirteen murders took place here, ten died a violent death.  Names William Winter too and hears his footsteps going up, but not hearing them come down the stairs.  Furniture has been moved.  Mentions sounds of the rocking chair and a butler's there too.  Judge Clark Woodruff  is here too.  She believes the good outweighs the bad here and can feel the haunting.

Tessa feels emotions and anxiousness when they arrive.  The house has condensed energy and want to be out of there.  Picks up on a woman who worked there.  She feels the woman thinks they believe she died in a certain way but she didn't really.  Someone killed them, perhaps, but they died at someone else's hands and she feels there's a connection with the man and then the woman dying.  Sees a little girl too and she lives her childhood.  Someone is stuck here when they were alive.  She feels grabbed, her hair in the house.  Like a little girl with red hair.  She feels like wanting to hide and running down the stairs.  She sees a woman who wants to slam the door and be alone.  There's a storm outside.  There's an unhappy man around too.  Feels a man pacing around the bed.  A boy runs and hides in the closet.

Nick wants the little boy to come out.  Tessa says she has two boys of her own so he can talk to her.  She feels that feverish feeling.  He might have died of Yellow Fever.  Nick feels he's gone from the closet now.  "Hey Nick" on the Geoport.  He remembers Nick.  He was wounded in the war.  "Yeah."  I think I heard "Chloe."  He says his name is "Sam" heard that.  "Hi Tessa."  Nick says the boy can run back to the closet and hide.  They hear footsteps.  Tessa feels a pain on her shoulder.  He leaves Tessa in the room where they're getting the most energy and investigates the rest of the house.  

Nick says the paranormal is unexpected so they try different tactics and equipment and leaves the ball on the stairs.  He can leave it anywhere and it will move or won't move.  You don't know what can happen.  The whole house has tragedy from the past and he thinks positive energy is brought back here from the owners now.  Tessa hears the door.  

Nick asks if the ball can be moved from the stairs.  A voice says "yeah."  He asks who moved the ball last time he was here.  She just hears the man pacing outside the door.  Footsteps are heard outside.  Should've left a camera outside Tessa's room.  They sleep in the house.  Nothing happens.  She mentions the male figure and the little red haired girl is around and interacts around people and believes she threw the ball down the stairs years ago (GA.)  She is playing with other children and people.  She feels the spirits interact with each other as well as the people here.  As a medium she likes the validation with physical evidence and they felt the haunting of the place.  

This was a bit of a different episode in having a medium in Tessa, being there with him all the time.  Though not much evidence was captured on camera, and some voices coming through.  Perhaps other equipment was needed, something more visual than just the sounds.
