Death Walker 3.2 "Haunted Western Block"

Once the Western Block Company in Rockport, New York, one of the last stops along the Eerie canal. Formerly housed the Western Block Company, the largest manufacturer of block and tackle used in shipping et all.  Also made equipment for the military during World War II.  The men who built Eerie Canal were mostly Irish and it was dangerous work blasting rock.  The canal was completed in 1825. Was constructed for people and goods transport and there was rampant disease due to the canal, such as cholera and many workers lost lives due to disease, being drowned or buried under rubble or from dangerous use of dynamite.  Dead workers could be haunting the facility due to construction and development in the area.  Former workers can be seen and the hotel burned down in 1841 as well as having a fire and police department.  They used the tunnels under the property for transporting alcohol under prohibition.  Frank caught an unexplained shadow woman in a room, whether the figures are spirits of workers or others haunting for various reasons.  The owner talks of different companies on site.

Over an 100 estimated deaths.  Little Italy was on the other side and had the Mafia connections and she took over the property in August 2015.  An arts and cultural centre.  Tenants speak of weird events taking place.  Fire in the back of the building and other fires and people have been injured and died.  They used to use child labour with them falling into machinery and dying.  The Eerie canal used children where they would put dynamite in the stone as they thought they could get away faster than adults, which wasn't the case.  Frank investigated in 2020 and got many shadows, hear noises, footsteps.  A shadow in the classroom caught on security camera and Frank saw it looking through the doorway.  A woman in dark period dress.  probably Mary, one of the Director's sister's.  He was standing in front of a window and he was shoved into the window and broke the window with his backside.  Entities have also been channelled and went through them. A member of the group was giving the history on the place and was taken over and then started laughing at him.  Investigate putting the stories together.

Nick begins in the classroom with the figure of the woman.  He uses Andy's Box to capture voices.  Akin to the Geobox, but it's much clearer as there's no static.  He asks to be connected with the energy and wants the shadow figure to manifest.  In 200 years he mentions the residual energy being set free and that's what people are probably seeing.  He asks if it can hear his voice and a voice comes through "Yeah...okay."  "This" when he asks where it is?  "I should be able" I hear after he asks if he can connect with his body using his energy and "yes."  "Look at me...run"  "Yeah" when he asks if he heard it?  I heard a banging sound also somewhere.  "She's dead...right..."  

Something is thrown and they move and he then reviews it and he sees a hand by his side.  The static camera shows a transparent-like arm reaching out behind him.  He calls it "alien-like and the hand more spirit like."  When he says "Holy shit" and goes towards the sound was he being saved from the hand grabbing him, in my opinion, or was it trying to distract him.  It's such a mystery.  I kind of think it was the former ie saving him possibly from its touch.  Then if it did touch him then who knows what that could have led to, maybe he wasn't meant to find out or not right now, at least.  

The second pic is my own filter.

"She doesn't like that..." He sees a shadow.  "She said thrown...sixty thrown..." what's sixty??  He asks if their energy was used to pick the object and throw it.  He wants to experience that altered state of consciousness humans can feel, the emotions or a form of energy beyond their reality and they can hear him as they are responding, coming through.  

Hey Nick doesn't spend the night here alone now, is that not happening this season then.  He asks if someone's standing here?  A woman speaks, can hear her vocal tone.  Nick feels pushed from behind.  There appears to be some shadow under the phone and then some sort of an orb fly under it.  "Frank" comes through.  "Fire...water" comes through which Nick says scared him.  He felt a jolt go through his body.  Another noise is heard.  They were sent through a 360 circle in the older side of the building.  He can still feel the energy from the spirits.

Video to specialist to analyze.  He looked at the two angles and there's nothing in one shot, the one Justin was filming and then it was in the static camera capture.  They film in 4k did that have something to do with it.  The analyst took the same moment in time and put it side by side and it resembles something that Nick could've held with his hand.  He works in post production and he teaches "everything we see is just reflective light."  He sees there's a colour difference in the hand "specular reflection of light."  Or could be a different colour.  The lit up areas stay the same as it moved through the space.  A different material, might be it reflects light or could be a different colour thus reflecting light differently.  Sharpening is added to one corner and it can be seen even more clearer.  

He used green cos the human eyes see more green and used in night vision.  It can be seen clearer and there's a light reflecting in one area only.  He thought it could be hair but it would've flicked away but the shot is stable and mounted on a tripod.  Hair wouldn't have two points of light.  Not hair, not a reflection, not a bug.  Nick sees a shadow on the pillar behind the hand.   Nick's shadow is on the ground and the hand's shadow corresponds to his.  It's not dust as it doesn't cast a shadow.  Nick wonders why one camera captures it and not on the other.  He can't figure it out as they're similar cameras.  Maybe they weren't supposed to capture it at all.  Especially with that noise distraction.  It's not a camera glitch.  As Nick says he wouldn't have known about the arm if that object sound wasn't heard.  See distraction or causing him to investigate further.  

Nick doesn't know if it's residual, intelligence or something coming through from another reality and this is the best evidence he has ever captured.  Having movement.  He thinks it's reaching in and pulling back out.  With different texture and quality on the hand bits.  Nick says this proves something that validates his investigation and he can take it further.  More questions and want to learn what he captured.  He contacts Tim who has been doing UFO and paranormal investigation for more than 20 years with his father.  He says it's something he can't explain.  It looks like an alien arm with three fingers.  People have told him what they've been through and is it going to happen again.  They see long arms, big heads, thin bodies.  Looks similar to the hand he captured.  

Nick hasn't seen anything like this and had to take it to experts.  Something breaking into their reality, an inter-dimensional being.  Kind of reminds me of that transparent, naked figure captured in Ghost Stalkers at the Old Taylor Memorial Hospital. 

Death Walker 3.1 "Entity House New York"

This episode filmed at a family home in Cattaraugus County, New York, where homeowner Daniela encounters supernatural forces in the home during the night and day.  She carried out research to see why her home was so active. She found a paratrooper in the US Army lived and died in the house in the 1980's.  He was said to be a good man.  There wasn't anything bad about him.  Nick says ghost haunt a location for their own reasons such as murders remaining unsolved, violent deaths etc.  He thinks the entity might be demanding something from her or it's something that isn't human or has manifested into something else overtime.  Or following them home and being attached to someone in the home.  This entity has also gone after the man after he began renovating the upstairs of the house.  Nick wants to see if he can document and make contact with what is there and why her childrens' dreams are being invaded.  He asked paranormal researcher and author Mason Winfield to examine the land around the property.  With help from Melanie and Daniel Klaes watching the monitors.  

Daniela says the activity began when there was heavy equipment on the property and removed small trees and brush.  She had nightmares and vivid dreams, as did her children.  They see a well dressed man.  Doors are open, they hear music and people going up and down the stairs.  She believes it's an old property owner.  She has done research and nothing much is revealed.  She feels lightheaded and the spirits cause exhaustion when they appear.  

Mason says the land wasn't surrounded by the glaciers, the site is mysterious.  There's plenty of folklore in the county but around the property there's nothing and no one wants to talk.  They're in a legendary zone and no one knows about the things in the woods.  Geomancer Linda Ellson, a Feng Sui expert mentioned  "Predecessor energy" at the site that could be manifesting.  Also there's a 100 foot well near the property and the house could be on a "void line."  The house is on a straight line between two cemeteries.  Something could've happened here but they can't say what for sure.  Mason wonders if someone has an enemy and they cut to the man of the house and he came face to face with an old man.  He doesn't like being there and he has heard, seen and felt things there that he doesn't like and isn't normal to him.  He's being watched.  The audio on the boom mic goes awry and they haven't had that going on before.  Nick finds it hard to breath and they leave the room.

When Nick is speaking with Phillip inside and the camera goes haywire and he feels a pain coming into his chest area.  Also Nick grabs the SLS sorry it's not what he called it and that figure was on the stairs, showing something was around.  He should've used that outside too or a thermal imaging camera.  There were plenty of orbs/light anomalies coming through the house clearly seen.  (I know you're not meant to put too much weight on them in this show, but they could be seen.)

The same noises were heard in the basement and also in the usual coming through on the Geoport of "sin" when Nick asks "who are you?"  That was heard three times in all three places.  As well as Nick's name coming up and also Justin's when they were in the basement.  I didn't see that head pop out in the corner of the basement or was it a different camera angle, would've been good if they actually reviewed and showed it.  Wanted to see that or wasn't it captured on camera.  As well as "who is she" coming up. 

There was a lot of voices coming through and unfortunately for some reason whilst I was recording it cut out after 15 minutes and I didn't even know!  Thanks whoever 'Sin' you were or whatever dark entity that was since there was stuff I wanted to listen to again and no I don't have Discovery either.  Outside much the same was coming through with Nick's name again and there was something about getting hurt in an accident.  Getting hurt also came through inside.  Then everything went quiet and no sounds could be heard, that was eerie and creepy too.  A silence all over the land as though something was around and everything just stood silent in its tracks.

The offering at the end by the Native American elder with the tobacco saying that the ancestors were content with the land and how life was being lived there.  Nick said she should live there as it's her house now and there was no definite answer to what was actually causing the hauntings.

Strike "Troubled Blood" Episode 4

Strike (Tom Burke) finds that Margot saw Steve for six weeks and Robin (Holiday Grainger) says that DI Talbot found Steve was associated with the death of a married woman, named Joanne.  She died from swallowing industrial weed killer but as she had marks around her neck, someone could have forced her to drink it.  DI George wonders why her death was ruled a suicide and Robin can only answer it was due to her being abused by her husband.  Strike believes Steve was associated with Julie's death too.  Steve Douthwaite changed his name to Steve Jacks after Margot went missing.  Robin adds the workers at Dr Gupta's office thought Steve sent Margot chocolates as she also tried to hide them from everyone.  Gloria saw them in her office and they weren't opened and wonders if Steve could've tainted them with drugs.  As happens to Strike later on, when he also receives a mysterious box of chocolates for Christmas.  They talk to the staff at the office as Steve was there as a guest so someone invited him.

Janice (Anna Calder-Marshall) says Steve was handsome Everyone thought he killed Joanna and at the party he was drunk.  Irene (Carol Macready) adds Steve was a flirt.  Margot threw the chocolate box in the bin but would later take things out and keep them.  Robin questions Saul (Jonas Armstrong) why he has charged dinners to the firm and he replies Strike rehired him on the case. Carl visited Janice as he's working on a book.  Margot left the children with a nanny and Leda was having an affair.  Robin warns Strike that Carl is setting him up and Strike lashes out at him.  Leda took him to the recording studio at seven, but Rokeby didn't want to see him and called him an "accident."  Pat (Ruth Sheen) drops off some mail to Strike and that's when he eats the chocolate, getting ill in the process.  Saul sends Robin a dick pic and then begs her not to tell Strike.  Who finds Steve under the alias of Steve Diamond.

They run a guest house and Steve's wife, Donna (Tracy Wiles) listens to their conversation with him.  When Carl exposed Steve he was afraid and didn't go on the run until after Julie's death.  Apparently the killer has killed six vics.  Saul grabs Robin as a joke and she has a knife in her hand.  She fires him and Pat adds if she attacked him she'd swear it was self defence.  In Janice's flat, Strike calls Beth who claims to be Athorn's (Dayo Koleosho) social worker.  Janice spikes Strike's tea.  She saw Steve killing Julie and then she held her head under water.  Janice poisoned Irene for fifty years.  Janice even poisoned her own son and he told Margot that his mum's drinks made him ill.  Margot didn't want anyone to eat the poisoned chocolate and he adds how he got sick after eating some too.    She also poisoned Margot's doughnut.  Janice buried Margot in the Samhain's flat in the ottoman/chest used as a table.  Janice suffocated Margot with a pillow.

Janice also sent her daughter a locket so that she would drop her snooping.  Strike informs Anna (Sophie Ward) they solved her mother's murder.  Robin finalizes the divorce with Matthew (Kerr Logan) before Sarah has her baby.  They hug as he was there for her when she needed him.  Strike gives Robin a balloon and buys her perfume.  They hug and she kisses him on the cheek.  Nothing more romantic than this as viewers were hoping for them to get together.  Again that'd be hasty and some of us don't expect this to happen.  Seems it will spoil the dynamic of the show and their character interaction.  Seems this was also stretched out much more than needed to be with some scenes that definitely could have been missed or not included at all. 

Strike "Troubled Blood" Episode 3

Strike (Tom Burke) is told by Brian (Billy Boyle) that Mollie was everything to him and can't believe Dennis Creed (Kenneth Cranham) killed her.  He also suspects that he killed Margot and Kara too.  However Robin (Holliday Grainger) tells him Kara was killed by Ricci.  Brian says no one will know what happened to his daughter, Louise and with Creed in prison there's no way to find out.  Creed was writing his memoirs and a guard at the prison gave him info on Margot.  Brian wrote to Creed and he wrote a letter back, he's into games.  His letter reads in the first sentence of each line: "your daughter cried for her mummy before she died."  Strike would be able to speak with Creed as he's well known and he pays them to see what happened to his daughter.  Robin agrees to help him and offers to work in her spare time without taking his money.  Strike warns her that Creed won't help.  Robin wants to help at least one of them and can't put this behind her.  After everything she's been through of course she won't let it go.

At the pub, Strike shows her evidence of photos Pat (Ruth Sheen) gave him.  Lucy calls him to say his aunt probably won't last til Christmas.  Strike looks through his photos and gets an email invite from Johnny Rokesby.  As Strike feeds a homeless man, Pat tells him she called the council about the curry found outside.  He doesn't tell her and gets Sam (Jack Greenlees) to call Paul.  Robin asks Izzy (Christina Cole) to see of she can see a prisoner at Broadmoor.  Strike is called by Beth who tells him Samhain said Margot was killed by Nico Ricci.  Robin cooks for Max's dinner party and her brother is coming too.  Strike tells Robin of the phone box and she says there was a delivery van that was speeding in the area but kept the driver quiet so as to avoid police.  Creed wasn't in the van.  Also Strike says it didn't fit Creed's MO as he would spike his victim's drinks.  

Strike reviews Ruby's interview from 1975 and she was near the phonebox and saw two women together and she thought they had been drinking by their behaviour.  Robin looks at the article and says it was a woman and her daughter but Strike adds it was the other way round as Fiona was taller.  It could have been Margot and Creed, as Creed would've been shorter than her, but it is unlikely.  Paul agrees to talk with Strike.  Johnny calls Strike and he opens up that he has cancer so time is running out.  Heck not another one dying.  Strike tells him to leave him alone.  Strike drinks and talks about being a soldier and gets into an altercation with Robin's brother's girlfriend, Courtney (Maia Tamrakar).  Robin tries to diffuse the situation, but Johnny begins talking about rape and Strike apologizes to Robin and leaves.  She calls him out on it and he apologizes but it isn't what she wants to hear.  Next morning he's at the office with Lucy.  They both head to Cornwall and run into flooded streets.  Finally making a breakthrough in a boat.

Robin calls and offers sympathy for Joan's passing and Creed will only speak with Strike.  He agrees.  Anna knows her father tried to find Margot and she's run out of money to pay him more.  He agrees to lower his rate.  As Robin meets with Matthew and only wants her parents' deposit back for the house.  As she later meets Brian with Strike, he tells them about Creed.  He was into Aleistair Crowley and he attended satanic rituals with women.  The notebook mentions Schmidt explaining all.  As they play with Tarot cards Robin picks the Lovers card and conceals it from Strike. Strike meets with Creed who thinks men like him are necessary in society and they get onto the subject of Crowley.  Brian tried to get to Creed using star signs.  Strike tells him his doctors don't believe Creed is sane and he talks of poisoning women.  As well as saying his client is Margot's daughter.  Creed wants to return to Belmarsh and write his book.  He admits to killing Louise after he saw her in her uniform and he took her necklace.

Strike doesn't believe Creed killed Margot or Louise and Creed mentions M54 where Louise's body will be found.  Which he and Robin try to work out.  Strike discovers it's a star in the Saggitarius constellation.  Robin thinks Louise could've been at the Archer Hotel and Strike speaks with George Layborn who talks of a skeleton being found.  Strikes recalls Creed mentioning being born under the 13th sign.  Robin informs him of Schmidt finding a 13th sign under the 14th star system.  This means peoples' stars change and Stephen Douthwaite would become Capricorn and the notebook says Capricorn killed Julie B.  She was a holiday rep at Baxton's.  She was found in the pool and Steve worked there but left afterwards.  Robin surmizes he killed Margot and then his girlfriend was found dead.  

Lots of jumping around in this episode with coming up with theories that some prove viable and others don't.  Strike and his moment with the homeless man stands out as does his getting drunk.  It just speaks othois character and fouling things up at the dinner party.  Deeply hurt by Joan's passing as well as Johnny revealing his diagnosis.  Yet he doesn't have anything but coldness towards Johnny.  Trying to keep churning out who really killed Margot to the end!

Strike "Troubled Blood" Episode 2

Episode 2 builds up on Margo's (Abigail Lawrie) disappearance and again with lots of flashbacks shows how her receptionist, Gloria (Jessica Impiazzi) was dating the man, Luca (Jacob James Beswick) whose father, Nico Ricci (Andy de la Tour) was a criminal as Strike (Tom Burke) notices the ring the man was wearing in the snuff video provided by his police friend.  Where they suspect the woman being assaulted half naked and wearing a blindfold could be Margot. That man being Nico.  Who they find out was in a nursing home and Robin (Holliday Grainger) pays him a visit.  Where Luca spots her and finds her in his room and she puts on a cockney accent claiming she was here to see another patient and paid him a visit too.  Obviously she can't wait to get out of there recalling her attack from series 1, but also since no way does Luca send out good vibes.  He and his father being as misogynistic as they come and even worse.  However the victim is ruled out as not being Margot as she didn't have a scar across her body.  She was Kara, as Robin feels the need to leave flowers at her workplace since she knows that Nico will never be brought to justice for her murder and probably countless others.

Margo it seems worked as some sort of a 'bunny' girl at a club where she met various men and pursued a so-called affair with one of them, a photographer, Steve (Jack Morris) who says that nothing happened, between them.  Strike and Robin also visit one of her former patient's family, The Athorns, the father who was accused of being Margot's killer.  Where his wife likes to do jigsaw puzzles on top of a large chest in the living room.  Whom Robin tries to build a rapport with for information.  Although they may be putting the two of them in danger from the Riccis. Two of Margot's nurses, Janice (Anna Caulder-Marshall - Tom Burke's real mother) and Irene are also interviewed and tell them about Margot and her visitors to the surgery.  Robin donning her same disguise as Venetia Hall again adds some interest to keep the episode going.

Margot's footage from the Christmas party filmed by a fellow colleague, Dr Gupta (Madhav Sharma) is alluded to many times.  As well as Strike visiting his aunt and uncle quite a bit now that she only has not long to live due to her cancer.  Then the scenes with Strike's hired PI, Saul (Jonas Armstrong) who pus his foot in it, left, right and centre and with Robin all the time.  As she takes him off the case he's working on and he says only Strike can do that.  But she reminds him she's a partner here.  He seems to want a 'thing' with her.  Again he too comes across as sexist and many scenes in this series all allude to the so-called 'weakness' of women as opposed to the men.  Margot who was all for feminism in such a time shows how things haven't changed at all no matter how times may have changed.

Strike "Troubled Blood" Part 1

Return of Strike after a few years absence.  Only worth watching for Tom Burke whom I haven't seen since 2019 with his appearance on stage in Rosmersholm. Though good in places it does become predictable who the actual suspect is by the time part 4 is concluded.  Along the way we still get the longing looks between Strike (Tom Burke) and Robin (Holiday Grainger) but as he later reveals she's his best friend and he doesn't want to f*ck it up cos that's what he'll do.  Well, based on his past romantic encounters he's probably right.  

This one kicks off with Strike in Falmouth, visiting his adoptive parents, Ted (Ian Radford) and Joan (Linda Bassett) as she is dying and has possibly a few days/weeks to live.  He's approached by Annie (Sophie Ward) the daughter of a missing GP, Margot (Abigail Lawrie) who vanished 50 years ago.  The main suspect Dennis Creed (Kenneth Cranham) a serial abductor/killer.  With various flashbacks the story is pieced together and Strike agrees to take on the case as obviously it has brought home some memories to him about what his adoptive mother is going through and also how he did have real feelings for his birth mother, Leda.  The office has had a revamp and more open planned with Strike taking on a PA, Pat (Ruth Sheen) and his two PI assistants, Saul (Jonas Armstrong) and Sam (Jack Greenlees).

The detective who initially investigated the case was himself looked at as crackpot with his theories and was replaced by another whose son is on the force and a friend of Strike's.  Margot disappeared after being on her way to meet her friend, Oonagh (Finola Flanigan).  Witnesses saying they spotted a white van, a woman sees two women having an altercation and the pub was accessible by foot.  He does tell Annie that the case is very cold and there's no guarantee they will get to solve it.  but this is Strike of course he and Robin will solve it.  Apparently Margot was a feminist and also caring.  She and Oonagh started out as hostesses/waitresses at a club frequented by men and here she catches the eye of Peter.  An artist and apparently they were meant to have had an affair and he painted her nude.  She was supposed to be his muse.  One night as they argue Oonagh comes to her rescue but he threatens them that if she reveals anything about him, he'll come after them.  Thus an obvious suspect.

This is based on the fifth book Troubled Blood by Robert Galbraith (JK Rowling) and with all the controversy with her opinions and views this becomes more of a take it or leave it series.  Most will recall some of the books are topical and political commentary is contained within, this however has been toned down here.  Perhaps more so for a wider TV audience. 

Annie wants this investigation kept from her father who was interviewed but wasn't a suspect.  Her colleague, Dr Gupta has some home movies of the Christmas party from 1974 and other footage.  With info from their friend, DI George Layborn (Samuel Oatley) they begin their investigation and footage on an 8 reel comes to light which is disturbing to say the least and they don't know if it was Margo who was being attacked by three men.  One of them branding a knife and wearing a ring which Strike recognizes from the party footage.  

Strike is back and forth visiting his step mother and also Lucy (Sarah Sweeney).  His sister, loves them as real parents whereas Strike has a soft spot for his own mother, Leda).  It's Robin's birthday but he doesn't recall or know and sets off to buy her perfume, tho Carnal isn't one he'd go for.  Not with them teetering on the bring of lust, er, romance I mean.  So he buys her flowers instead.  Also Matthew (Kerr Logan) wants to rush through the divorce.  Family crawls out of the woodwork here, as his brother Al Rokeby also shows up wanting him to come down for the Christmas do and his father wants him there.  Now he wants to acknowledge his existence. 

Death Walker "Indiana State Asylum"

Indiana State Sanatorium where TB was treated,  the sanatorium became popular and everyone wanted to be there and was a waiting list and after the BCG injection it ceased to be operational.  The Adams House was built here. A senior care assisted living facility but also housed patients with mental illnesses and substance abuse as mentally ill patients left the grounds.  2006 patient barefoot and was struck and killed by a car. 2002 old woman died of exposure and a man left and hanged himself far away.  After a resident left the building in 2002 the State Dept of Health recommended they a female patient died.  As well as a murder/suicide.  The State stopped funding due to treatments on patients.  By 2012 all patients were relocated.  The property was sold and fell into disrepair.  Paranormal activity was reported in 2008 when a female patient entered a man's bathroom.  Nick will use new device showing him areas where shadow figures are around.  So he will have more of a chance of making physical contact on the other side. 

Confrontation may be found during Nick's investigation.  Four thousand people lost their lives from simple epidemics.  People have been scratched.  A loud sound is heard during the interviews and Becca feels an energy through the room.  She was about to say people here just want to be acknowledged.  She asks for communication with anyone still there.  She believes she's communicating with a female.  She's been physically touched here and disorientated too.  Shadow people, things moving in the corner of their eye.  She feels pain, like home, fear, being trapped.  Many emotions at once.

Nick gets some responses, sounds like "help."  He says he wants to communicate and not here to disrespect.  He feels distress and he feels electricity through his whole body in one spot.  One room has a lot of flies there.  He asks who he is, if they know.  "I'm dying" comes through and he feels there's so much residual energy here.  The Geobox picks up on it.  Nick felts a stabbing in his back and Justin felt dizzy.  He feels they may still be living  in their time and they're coming through now but they haven't had any intelligent contact.  He feels overcrowded and their emotions.  He asks if anyone's back here.  A female replies, "I am."  Heard "Nick" too.  Heard a "get out."  Lots of voices and talking.  "Hallway" is heard.  I said you can hear singing.  

In the admin building and a voice says "Hey Nick."  The paranormal puck detects movement in the hallway but he can't hear it.  The tunnels are dark but it's not scary.  He hears the paranormal puck now.  There's so much energy and then he says how intelligent communication is heard and then it goes back into the shadows.  Some rooms have strange vibes and can pick up on their emotions and he feels the energy from the past.  He mentions the body being discovered there.  "The past can leave emotional imprints on tragic events."  He "tried to feel a moment rippled in time."  The stories continue and residual energy also lingers.  He says they're still making contact during the day.  A voice says "I did" after Nick asks if it threw the object.

Ghost Adventures "Horror At Joe Exotic Zoo"

Hallowe'en Special continues the Tiger King saga.  Yes Zak 2020 was "crazy!"  He recalls the TV show Tiger King (I didn't watch it.)  Jeff Lowe said he has to give the park to Carol Baskin and she could have "all the ghosts that go with it."  Zak believes it to be haunted and in Wynnewood, Oklahoma, he's ready to investigate the spirits here.  They say Joe Exotic is paranoid and was found guilty.  Zak speaks with Jeff and Lauren Lowe.  Joe illegally transferred the property and Baskin could get it legally.  Zak says there's a "dark vortex of energy in this place lingers here, as Lauren says.  They are sure there have been murders here.  Zak adds they don't have any proof but it's still disturbing to hear.  They dug up the tigers that Joe killed.  Being here since 1998 and were stories about strange occurrences.  Joe was arrested and many residents were relieved.  Since they were afraid to talk about him.  Jeff doesn't know how he kept sane here.  Hear noises and are strange.  Zak asks if something caused Joe's behaviour on this land as it hides something.  Zak hasn't heard tiger growls before and they see the tiger pee through the fence.

It's mentioned Joe took a photo and saw someone was levitating above the alligator house.  He thought it was a spirit.  Erik lived here three years and he lost his friend, Travis here, husband of Joe.  He shot himself accidentally.  He removed the clip from his gun but it still went off.  Erik said the clip was in the gun when he found him, but it was reported the clip was removed.  Not emptied.  He talks with Alan, allegedly Joe paid him to kill Baskin.  He denies this.  Alan has experienced hauntings.  Zak says he heard a voice near him.  He says Travis is still with him.  Jeff says Travis still knocks on their window and came round a few nights ago.  Erik says he saw Travis seven days after he died.  Saw him on the couch and winked at him.  He was shaken up by it.

Malicia talks of seeing Travis too and he was near her son's age and they spoke together whenever she needed to.  She saw a mist from the cougar cage, Travis's height.  She shows them where he killed himself in the gift shop and the bullet hole is still there.  Zak feels there are more secrets to be found.  

Joe's house where Erik has been in once and had the feeling to leave and he avoids it.  The house is ramshackle and rundown.  Travis's couch is still there. Even his car key still hangs on the wall and Joe's pill bottle is still there.  Aaron can't breathe and has to leave.  Zak says Travis is still here and things have happened that they can't talk about.  Zak just had to touch the penis pump!  Lauren adds there are bodies under the cement island at the pond, one under a concrete slab and one where ashes were spread under the tiger cages.

At the Back 140 - had a bad reputation.  For 20 years animal remains were dumped there and the bodies were hidden there.  Jeff and Lauren believe bodies were here.  Erik has seen balls of light there and Jeff tells him about the bodies of two trespassers who were shot by two employees.  They know the names but due to lawyers they won't mention them.  Two employees were drinking and getting high and one employee shot and killed one and one was wounded.  The shooter couldn't did it and the other man shot him instead and then burned the bodies.  They have no evidence this happened.  Zak asks if there's a "dark force controlling those who walk this land?"  Zak calls up a forensic team.  He calls Terri to bring cadaver dogs down.  The dogs can tell the difference between human and animal remains.  

Bill Chappell comes down to carry out some experiments.  Recreate an area for EVPs.  He runs in a pipe system and adds some frequencies making up human voices and they should be able to 'amplify' the voices.  The dogs are able to smell human remains and bark when they found something.  They also can tell the difference between animal remains.  Zak hasn't seen any land that is drenched with energy.  The darkness "hangs over this entire zoo like a cloak of oppression."  The dog picks up human remains scent.  Jeff says there was a 14' alligator in the water.  The dog smells human remains.  

The experiment is to understand the method of  EVP generation.  Zak talks to Travis's spirit in the gift shop.  He uses the Trifield meter and gets a huge sweep on it.  Billy shows the tubes from the 'deep echo experiment' with the pipes heading along the land.  The pipe is filled with water, they'll broadcast some frequencies and see if anything is heard to nerve centre.  He asks whether an EVP can be carried through the water.  As Zak et al head to Joe's house they see two lights resembling eyes.  There is nothing seen on the path.  They use a mic that doesn't pick up any sound.  Bill takes an energy speaker and gives it some sound.  If they get an EVP they can convert it to sound.  As Bill places a mic where Travis killed himself, they see a mist go before them.  It could be a spirit manifestation.  Bill sees another mist outside by the door.  An anomaly then comes out of Bill's arm.  The tone generator experiment: 3 sounds were captured: underwater tone: "folks are dead??" or something...dead" is heard whispered.  The water mic: sounds like "a corn dog in the corner" yeah that's just corny!  Bill was surprised by the words being long.  The controlled experiment is historic for their investigations.

Zak investigates Joe's house.  Aaron asks if he remembers them.  Zak asks about the entity above the alligator house.  Zak feels panic and a light anomaly enters his body.  Aaron uses the Polterpod and I hear "gifted to him."  Not "give it to him."  The house is oppressive and need to leave.  The house is suffocating, it's the energy inside it.  Zak hears two people talking and music in the house.   Zak uses the Trifield and gets another high reading as in the gift shop.  He then gets emotional and apologizes.  Zak captures a figure on the SLS by the closet pointing at the shelf.  He finds a teddy bear and then a cap with Travis's name on it.  Zak places the hat on the couch next to a cigarette and ask for Travis to appear and a figure does appear.  Zak and the others can't contain themselves.  They play the voice again.  Which still sounds like "gifted to him."  Did someone gift him the hat.  

The Sheriff's department come to check out the alligator pit.  Zak says they came here for a paranormal investigation and now their discovery shows something more to the 'Joe Exotic investigation.'  The Sheriff concludes the remains found are animal and not human, something with a tail.  With which the cadaver dog people disagree.  Their dogs have been used in countless investigations and have found human remains underwater.  So they can't be wrong!  Something wasn't right here.  The Sheriff lets them take the dogs back but concludes that they have nothing to investigate.  The experts aren't happy with this.  Zak wonders how aggressive the spirits will get now that the dogs are still sensing human remains.  

Their second lockdown is prepped and Zak shows their findings to Erik, who recalls Travis and his hat that Joe took from him as punishment.  Zak is even more convinced that the figure is actually Travis.  Explains why he would've pointed to his hat and would've wanted it back.  Erik believes that Joe was possessed and he would repeat himself after he spoke.  He'd also not change his clothes for days even.  

Jay and Zak head to the Back 40, as Aaron and Billy investigate the alligator pit and then Alan's trailer.  Jay felt something tug his shirt and an anomaly/mist goes away from his back.  A growl is heard.  Which could be a tiger or residual.  They try to talk to the male voice from earlier where he said "play."  Zak asks if spirits are here? "Yeah."  How many bodies are buried? "Two."  How did they die?  "Fire."  Although they don't have any proof of the allegations.  Their final response to where are you buried?  "Here."  Must be something haunting that area.

Aaron runs out of the trailer as Alan is still asleep there and he saw his tiger blanket moving.  They investigate his trailer anyway.  They take Polaroid photos, EMF readings and a voice comes through the Polterpod, "David" comes through.  Then the Ovilus says "Satan Shining."  Zak explains when Lucifer was falling and the association of Isiah 14:12 refers to the Shining One instead of Lucifer.  David also being a biblical name.  

Zak and Jay investigate the gift shop.  Jay puts a tricycle out and Travis used to sit in it and it used to move.  The storm rages outside.  He uses a Vocorder like a live EVP.  They can talk and the sensitive mic will pick it up and play what it heard through the speaker.  Zak feels he was touched.  On the audio session he hears a voice saying "what up?"  Or "shut up"??  After Travis's voice Zak wonders what else they'll find here in the future.  Weeks later the experts tells Zak that there are human remains buried and they want to go again.  A week later the team returned to the zoo.  Four different dogs gave positive responses at the pit.  The zoo hides many secrets.  Not to mention that if there's anything of vale to the photo Joe took at the alligator house could this have any relevance to the alligator pit, since this is where the human remains appear to be.  Was it a sign to investigate there?

Ghost Adventures "Vengeance In Oxnard"

Oxnard, California: a historic, haunted house. A couple who moved here one year ago.  People were pushed by unseen forces, death.  The Henry Levy House.  Built for the Oxnard magnate over a century ago.  Henry died in 1936 and his wife Camille looked after it until the 1970's.  Camille died in the home but Juliet's whereabouts isn't known.  Their cruelty has caused owners to sell their house.  After being here one year they've asked for help.  A neighbour tells them of firsthand experience with the house and the sisters.  Marina tells them they were rude with everyone.  Her son had passed when she moved here.  He'd ride his tricycle and tell him "dirty Mexican go home."  They had to walk on the road.  She thinks it's the house and the way they were.  Her experience after their passing saying she felt negativity, chills.  She knows they're still there and want to stay there.  Zak says their prejudice is despicable but they now know what the sisters were like.

The couple, Eric and Jeff moved in a year ago.  First six months was fine then there was a stone in the garden and it resembled a gravestone, my sis said that too before he did.  The previous owner wanted it back, when they removed it they had their experience.  Heard shoes above them.  The third floor, the attic and above their bedroom the floor isn't finished.  At Marina's house, she tells them she couldn't go into the third floor.  Before Eric lived there, Mariana's high school teacher resided there and she'd go there.  On the third floor they felt watched.  The couple found the door wide open and on CCTV the door is seen to swing open after being locked.  Zak wonders if the sisters are here.  In the spiritual realm it's still their house.   

Zak only wants to know if the sisters are here behind the haunting.  He calls them out in not being good and how they treated others.  Zak has an uneasy feeling and feels a headache.  He may be feeling territorial oppression.  He's going to push back.  Aaron and Billy investigate the third floor.  He wants to go into the bedroom and feels someone is there causing him to go in.  He feels anger and sees the mirror and that's what my sis said again before Zak said it.  It's the bedroom where Camille passed and Lauren sits in front of it.  Billy sees the Trifield spiked all the way and peaked.  The homeowner tells them a female voice was caught on their camera.  Sounds like "leave us/our house..."??  He wonders if something darker happened on the grounds.  A woman's brother-in-law and sister were the first owners of the house.  They were told the pond wasn't original and there was an older one there and a man died in there.  No idea who he was or how he died.   Billy says Zak's feeling what they want him to feel.  Zak got affected as he used provocation and it was due to their treatment of Mariana and if they don't like it, they should do something.

Second day of their investigation Zak mentions the mirror room and he felt the most anger there.  He felt this wasn't him and it was one of the sisters.  Marina says she saw a figure in her home.  He believes the Levy sisters' spirits are travelling and could have backfired onto her due to his provocation.  She saw a shadow and then it vanished and looked like a person.  One of her daughter's couldn't sleep.  Zak thinks since they mentioned them perhaps one of the sisters or something came to this house.  He says there's no room for anything evil or inhuman in their house due to their faith and love.  Zak asks if they are here and he doesn't like them.  He asks who he saw in the mirror.  "Female" comes up on the Puck.  Who are they mad at?  'Holy.'   One of her daughter's says her grandmother used to call her, "her little witch."  Zak tells it to go the table.  Then says names: Camille, Juliet, Henry?  He asks why it's mad?  "Heavy"  comes through.   Marina asks who she saw.

Zak asks who the spirit that came to this house is?  "Many" they say was his son, Manny.  Zak wants to be sure it's him.  Billy asks who came to the living room?  "Evil."  Zak gets a stabbing pain.  A warning from Manny.  Zak's breathing got erratic and off balance and feels cold.  Marina has a pain in her side.  Zak does a quick EVP session.  "Many" comes through again.  And they feel cold air.  The Trifield spikes.  "Big" they describe him as heavy and big.  They believe it is Manny.  He asks him to help with who was in the house and asks if it was one of the sisters or something negative that affected the land and the sisters.  Then spikes again.  Zak feels cold.  Something gets hold of Zak on his shoulder.  Zak didn't feel any negativity.  Zak asks him to watch over his mother.  The location of the ice cold mass and charged air was near to the bedroom door that was Manny's bedroom. 

The XLS captures a figure where the man was found in the pond and jumps on the table.  Billy says that's what opened the door and the spirit moves from outside in or stays outside.  Zak uses the XLS and a full spectrum camera.  Eric then tells them he heard a growl on the camera last night.  They play the voice again and it sounds like a creepy, old woman rather than a growl.  Zak tells them this isn't their house anymore.  Footsteps are heard upstairs.  Aaron tells Zak to go quickly like he does to him.  He says they're territorial and possessive of the house.  They hear a growl that sounds like a voice.  Zak asks why they're not scaring him like the others.  

Aaron feels a pain and pressure and something's about to happen.  A figure touches the camera next to Aaron and Billy feels the cold air.  It keeps touching the camera and tripod.  Aaron feels drained as he was poked in his head after Aaron says there's something on his head.  One tries to film the other figure.  Was that the two sisters, would make sense.  Another figure tries to get Aron's camera on the table.  Zak says the figure is trying to sprinkle pixie dust and tries to control him and is doing something to Aaron's head and levitates over him and vanished.  Some of their best evidence.  Aaron has eye problems.  Damn the right part of my eye started hurting near the eyebrow.  He can't keep his eyes open.  

Camille's old bedroom and the mirror.  Aaron said he saw a woman and his eyes aren't hurting now.  Zak wants her to show herself.  He sees the mirror glow and something touching his leg.  He feels it stronger here and gives it permission to do something to any of them.  Zak: "Cross the veil, feel our breath, see through our eyes."  He says he sees a woman.  Zak speaks with the mirror when alone.  He does, no, personally and an anomaly comes out of the mirror.  Zak said he had a conversation with Camille and answering questions.  She said how dare he comes into their house and call her out, "he thinks he's really cool..."  How true ha! 

Zak uses the Estes method of communication wearing headphone and they ask questions.  Aaron asks if it lives here, its house?  "Yeah."  "Talking about the attic."  "Not physically or visible"??  No more voices.  Zak has Billy put his phone on the landline and a voice comes through on his phone as "great great."  Did that sound residual??   Zak asks if it can hear them, Camille?   A voice comes through on Zak's phone; was it Henry or the dead pond man.  Another voice comes through "can you hear the dead?"  When Zak asks who they're talking to he gets a call on his phone: No Caller ID.  He doesn't answer it and thinks it could be personal.  Someone should've answered it, accidentally.  If it was personal cos editing dude!!! should've picked up!  

That called the end of the investigation and he feels he made a connection with Camille.  Aaron got controlled and the EVPs they got were amazing.  But what happened to the house after the investigation and to Eric, Jeff and Marina?? 

Ghost Adventures: "Curse of Catalina Island"

Zak travels to Santa Catalina Island, California where he has to meet the others.  For whom the bell tolls ha, why y'all dressed as being on holiday.  Zak calls them embarrassing.

This investigation featured historic and iconic haunted Catalina Casino.  Built in 1929 it was a meeting place.  It has a theatre, ballroom and serpentine ramps, secret passages and strange rooms.  He says the whole island exudes mystery and a curse.  Ralph Glidden desecrated Native American graves and land, creating a museum where the bones and remains were used as props and were even sold.  Thousands of bodies were exhumed.  It awakened something on the island.  His collection was also housed in the casino once upon a time.  He says this adds to the paranormal activity.  Zak still  believes spirits can't cross water so they're dealing with thousands of spirits.  Erin has been in the building a lot.  She takes them to the first floor women's bathroom.  Something doesn't feel right here.  Women feel it's not right in there.  There's something in there.  She heard a voice by the door and she didn't go in.  A female voice.  Directly connected to what they will experience.

Inside the theatre she's seen black shadows watching them from ceiling vents.  Erin was 7/8 and saw a bright, white light and saw a black figure in the grate.  Chuck, a tour guide, was born and raised on the island and tells them about the grave robbing.  The Smithsonian wanted bones so Gidden went to all eight Channel Islands.  With case fulls of skulls, resembling a catacombs.  Chuck was told not to mention ghosts on the tour and he laughed that he wouldn't need to say anything; they'll find out for themselves.  The chiefs and religious island chiefs would have their meetings here and they believed there are green doors around, they worked and there were giants guarding the doors and letting certain people in.  Like portals.  Heard a woman's voice too. Chuck thinks it may be a woman in the woman's lounge.

Zak gets a warning on the Polterpod "wait."  Uncanny she sounded like Erin??!!  The Trifield goes bonkers.  Zak feels a force on his chest and can't go in there.  Chuck speaks to the spirits and gets a reaction when he says they'll get the attention they crave.  The meter pegs at 1,000 and can't go further.  Then goes to 48 when Chuck talks about them again.  An orb floats about the women's lounge with a woman's face saying "get out."   Zak talks about portals and this building being a portal.  Jay says they draw a circle when they do rituals and they're in a giant circle.  He talks about the skeleton and was surrounded by 30 children's corpses around the skeleton in an urn.  Jay says it could be a sacrifice.  Aaron feels pain on his back.  Outside the casino they review the Polaroids.  They find a stream of white light coming from one of the mirrors and in another photo, a massive white streaming mist/ anomaly comes out of Chuck's mouth.  When recreating was tried nothing happens.  The photos all centre around Chuck, referring t0 it as "evidence."  

Second level dressing room and projection room.  They continue investigating for the night.  They conduct an XLS sweep.  Zak sings the lyrics to Avalon as they're on the poster on the wall.  He sends Aaron in where he says he can smell damp towels.  Zak asks anything to sit on the chair.  When two figures manifest from the portal after Billy places a chair near the mirror.  The second one seems to struggle coming out.  The mirror being a portal.  The figures were in the reflection in the mirror.  

Zak heads back to the woman's lounge area.  Billy asks for the door to be rattled.  Zak hears someone sliding.   Zak describes the place as The Shining.  They hear the door again by the desk.  "Go back, I'm here" kinda sounds like it and some sort of tinging sounds like glasses clinking and a light anomaly.  They go back to the place with the mirrors they filmed with Chuck.  Zak says it's the portal as the energy shifts.  Zak tells everyone to take a mirror and close their eyes as he says "Bloody Mary" three times.  He did this chant when he was 11.  He saw a woman in the mirror.  They close their eyes and see if anything appears in the mirror.  Billy feels something around him.  Then look in the mirror.  Aaron hears a noise.  Zak asks permission to look through the portal.  They open their eyes on three.  Billy says he couldn't see his eyes and couldn't see his face which disappeared.  Zak faces the wall for 15 minutes.  

Aaron lies on a stage and thought they were behind him and felt dizzy.  He smelled leather and cigars.  Billy is discovered.  they were in the mirror room and he went into the bathroom and calls it scary even with the light on.  Aaron says he thought they were still following him.  Aaron notices the mirror he thinks is a doorway.   They hear creepy laughing.  It was all due to the "mirror thing"  they think they're in a Fun House in a movie.  Yeah House of Mirrors.  They come through the mirrors with an XLS they go back into the mirror room.  Zak asks to be shown how they come through the mirror and he catches a figure walking behind him on the mirror via the XLS.  Thus the figure was behind hi and he filmed the figure's reflection.  Didn't that look like Zak.  You know portals, being fu*ked up by the mirror chanting and losing track of the space around them and where they were! Just my opinion.  Since it wasn't even a stick figure.  Is it wearing a hat?  As the entities they captured before came though as stick figures, not as a 'human' figure form.

Billy says the mirror is at a 45 degree angle.  The reflection was in the first mirror - was that the one Billy saw himself in????  without his face.  Zak  sums up the green door theory again in relation to the evidence they captured.  

Jay asks if there's anyone in the rafters as he investigates the theatre.   He hears a voice.  Sounds like "here."  When Jay leaves, something is caught on the thermal camera filming the stage - a heat anomaly appears, don't know if it's paranormal or not.   Jay doesn't know what's going on but he hears voices and he notices the lamp moving.  That woman sounded like Erin.  

Ironically their evidence was caught around mirrors.  Proving the ancients are using the mirrors to continue between worlds.  Zak: "One of our most monumental investigations ever."  

Another ep where I had deja vu again.  It's uncanny how this keeps happening especially with the portals and the mirrors.  Okay it doesn't happen frequently, but it does with certain eps.  Channel Islands, we have those too, at least the name, known as Guernsey and Jersey. 

Ghost Adventures "Lovelock Triangle"

Zak: "If locations give off a vibe and energy before you even walk into them this place is like walking into the face of the sun..."  Lovelock, Nevada, he calls a strange and mysterious place in the US.  Archeologists made a 'profound discovery' in the 2850 BC where giant human bones belonging to the Si-Te-Ca, giant Native cannibal tribe were found.  Killed by the Paiute.  Energy is caused by the vortex creating more fear.  In 1891 Paiute murdered a woman they said practised witchcraft in the town.  Said this led to the town being cursed.  Which is already 'strange' he adds.

The Marzen House overseen by Kelly who has had dark attachments following her to her nearby house.  There's something more than just Kelly and her connection to the house.  Kelly is nervous.  She's the museum director who carries out research there.  The house was built by Col Joseph Marzen in 1885 and has become laden with "tomb of artifacts" from the region.  She's deeply connected to it and has been associated with it for 23 years.  Her son, William says that she just can't get away from this house.  She's addicted to it.  He sees darkness in her eyes.  He's noticing changes in her personality.  She's been drawn there by the energy and spirits.  Zak feels cold which could be a manifestation of the entity that followed her.  She has nightmares about the museum where she's stuck in the house.  She has black shadows in the Marzen house and she's seen one there.  See later.

William's worried for her and he doesn't believe that she's protecting herself.  No EVPs caught.  Zak wants to work out who's at the house.  Yes but when he got the chance he doesn't actually come out and ask who it is and i mean when he was using the Puck.  Using the map of the town he points out the cave which is already steeped in superstition.  The 1891 killing of the witch, thus witchcraft comes to town and Kelly's in the middle.  She's acting as a vessel for the spirits to go back and forth.  The basement, her grandson's bedroom were the children were afraid.  Her sister sent a photo of the man standing in the corner, saying he wanted to be a demon but he couldn't.  Why even leave them in that room if they were having such a negative influence over them.  Will never get that!  Lots of examples of this over the eps, such as The Black Swan Inn.  In her bedroom and he felt like being held down three times and she has her nightmares there.  She thinks the spirits are following her and going back and forth there.

Zak feels sick and feels it could be an 'echo' of the earlier cold spot.  Aaron does a Trifield sweep.  The spirits know they're here to break the bond.  The place scares him.  William and his friend saw someone working in the assay building and a man lying on the bed got up and stared at him.  He doesn't go there.  Lauren asks if it was from the Marzen and the meter spikes to 4.3.  Kelly fears what will happen to her when they go to the house.  Zak asks if they're allowed there.  He feels a lingering sensation.  He doesn't know where he's going but will follow it.  Zak gets visions of a railroad depot and he wants to follow his vision.  Kelly is fine and she says there was a train depot.  They meet Tina, she grew up with William. In 1998 her father died in the building and was found by Kelly's son, William (see later.)  William broke into the train depot and found him dead.  

Zak ponders being led here.  Something graver is at work here and asks if there was a darkness in the past waiting to begin manifesting here and at the depot too.  Upstairs people get affected, feeling anxious.  Typing this ep I suddenly got a sick feeling!  Yuk!!  An inter-dimensional scavenger hunt and they don't know who's leading them on it and he can't escape being stuck in bad dream.  The one that's called him here to expose it.  Using the Polterpod he asks what the connection is to everyone, The house, the depot and Kelly and her son.  A triangle.  Hence the name of the ep.  He doesn't like that room.  He asks if it wants to talk to them.  He tells them about some info a few weeks ago, a man committed suicide on the tracks, right in front of the Marzen House.  Something's going on and they need to prepare themselves for the connection.  

They set up a connection creating a triangle.  With Kelly at the house, Zak and Billy at her house and Aaron and Jay at the depot.  Setting up an electrical connection, in some ways similar to the Winchester Mystery House.  A loud growl is heard from the Marzen House.  At the train depot they have set up where Tina's father's body was found.  Zak asks who can see them on the Puck "Evil."  Who do you want: "found."  Kelly feels a headache.  Zak asks where they're entering our world: "Table."  Billy and him feel cold.  9 milligause reading at the table.  Zak wants it to do something in one of the three places.  he didn't ask who it is?  Kelly hears a tap.  Sounded like a knock on the window.  Zak commands all the spirits to travel to the Marzen house and manifest and asks for a sign.  She feels a poke.  A dark shadow figure is captured on the time lapse camera by the front door.  Going up the stairs, that looks like a creepy human!

Zak asks what is happening to Kelly and Aaron gets "Haze" on the Ovilus.  Zak asks where are you? "Above."  A light anomaly goes up the stairs in the Marzen House.  Still didn't ask who it is?  Zak asks why it comes to Kelly's house?  "Haematus  - Do" comes through.  Haematus of Jewish origin "person who touches souls."  Zak feels weird and Aaron doesn't feel well either.  Feeling chills.  Kelly asks what's in her bedroom?  "Witch" comes through at the depot.  Jay says a witch would curse the land.  Kelly says it's true, they had had high fire rates, death rates and was the murder capital of the country.  "Descend" comes through.  To the basement in her house.  Jay and Kelly mention their heads hurting at the same time.  

Jeff conducts an XLS sweep with Kelly.  Capturing a mass coming from the wall and entering the top of her head.  Zak uses the Polterpod in the basement.  Aaron and Jay head upstairs at the depot.  Zak gets a pain on the left side of his neck.  Using the Polterpod and feels someone in the corner.  Billy feels static.  A female comes through and saying "no...you from me?"  Not coming.  He asks who this is? "Greg."  She says "hi."  A man says "Lyle"??  Then hi sounds like "hide or quiet."  The same voice comes through on Aaron's spirit box "hi."  Then a man comes through and says "William."  Her son's name.  Was that Tina's father?  Since he found him there.  Yeah deffo William!!  "Bodies" is what I hear not "freeze."  Aaron thinks it wants them to go inside the attic.  To find bodies!  How long been in house?  "Years."  Same woman's voice.  Why here?  "Because."  Zak asks what the woman's name is "what is your name woman?"   Ha. "Michael" comes through.  Sounds more like "woke up."  Not "Woka"???  That's what's happened to the spirits - they're awake.  Also with all the dreams and nightmares.

Jay uses the spirit box in the attic but nothing comes through.  Jeff tells them about the capture.  He then heard a whisper in his ear.  Aaron tells them about the woman and the mumbling man.  Zak closes the connection and tells the spirits to stay at their location of choice and make contact with them.  Kelly leaves the house.  Zak says their experiment works and shows that the spirits are travelling through the connections.  He wonders who the black mass is.  They did that experiment in Goldfield too.  Oh man what an ep!  I wonder what Tina's father's name was as they got a few male names here.  Zak still didn't ask who they were talking to and who comes and goes in the houses.  Also everytime he said "Marzen House"  I thought of the Barlow House in Salem's Lot don't know why!  Maybe the vampires getting around everywhere in the town and the house was the connection where Barlow was kept.

Doctor Who "The Power of the Doctor"

Cyberman invade a train though just where that futuristic train came from or where it was headed just appeared as a random plot point.  As the guards try to gun them down, they regenerate and are now "Cybermenmasters."  Obviously a big hint as to who had that influence on them.  The Doctor (Jodie Whittaker) tries to help with Yaz (Mandip Gil) and Dan (John Bishop) who clings on for dear life after he almost zooms into space on that ladder.  She helps the people and fails to rescue a child they transport off the train.  Dan prepares for his date and as he's dropped off the TARDIS he says this is his last time on here.  He was lucky to escape with his life and the Doctor helped him put his life back together.  He wants to live it now and is ready for it.  His house is gone obviously so he's going to stay with his parents.  As Yaz says goodbye to him.

We get to see Ace (Sophie Aldred) and she gets a call from Tegan (Janet Fielding) telling her the Doctor's sent her a note and a mini-Russian doll figure.  Which doesn't resemble a Russian doll at all.  This is after Ace looks at the wall of the museum where a missing painting was hanging.  Gone for maintenance is what the assistant says.  Of course she knows there's more going on.  As well as there being fifteen missing seismologists.  Of course as everyone has said that would become topical with all that soup throwing and crap over paintings in museums.  Well the less said about that the better.  Here we see paintings like The Scream, Girl with a Pearl Earring, with the Master's face as Rasputin plastered all over it!  The Girl With the Pearl Earring was a veritable masterpiece here!  Ha.  

The Doctor chasing after the Cybermasters finds a planet: a cyber converted planet.  Where we saw a long haired figure being taken to the Tsarina at the Summer Palace in St Petersburg.  Him being Rasputin aka The Master (Sacha Dhawan).  Here on the planet she finds the Master's TARDIS ready to take the planet through time and space.  She finds it's hooked up to some energy form known as the Quoronx.  To which the child was chained.  She has to return to the TARDIS when the Cybermasters turn up.  The Doctor is then disturbed by a Dalek hologram, a Dalek betraying his own kind by telling her they plan on destroying the human race again and to meet somewhere for details on this.  Kate (Jemma Redgrave) also asks for help.  Where the Doctor is reunited with Tegan and Ace.  Tegan perturbed the Doctor didn't keep in touch and Ace having a falling out with her version.  Tegan having brought the mini-Russian doll with her.  

That's when they see the new images plastered all over the paintings.  The Master trying to be clever and catches the Doctor's attention.  As well as appearing at some seismology conference in Naples which is where she heads.  Here he's shrunk the audience again and he's arrested and taken back in the TARDIS to UNIT HQ.  Telling Yaz to keep a gun on him.  She likes the new HQ.  Then in conversation with Tegan and Ace, she places her hand on their shoulders and shocks them with a static charge.  She's off on the trail of the Daleks next and in true Thirteen fashion, we jump around from place to place where the action is happening practically all over the world.  

The Master has plans to escape obviously and getting caught and coming away with them was too easily orchestrated.  The little mini-doll is now regenerated as his shrinking process can be reversed and transforms into a Cyberman.  Ashad (Patrick O'Kane) and of course he's a Russian doll so soon enough there's a whole building full of Cybermen.  He releases the Master and shows no mercy in taking out the soldiers.  Letting the Master escape.  The Doctor and Yaz find out the Dalek's plan in Bolivia: to erupt all the volcanoes on Earth.  She gets to see the Dalek in person but it's caught by the others who already knew of its betrayal.  As they exterminate it and get the Doctor to sit in its shell; she signals to Yaz to go.  She takes the TARDIS and lands back on the planet where she rescues Vinder (Jacob Anderson).  

The Doctor is taken to St Petersburg where we see Rasputin Master and he wants to force a regeneration of the Doctor harnessing the energy of the planet.  But not before he does a dance rendition to Boney M's Rasputin.  With a harkback to the timely warning in Flux.  He transforms, regenerates into the Doctor, earring in all.  When did she get that then.  Yaz has to accompany him as he too wants a companion, dressed in the Doctor's clothes.  As he wants to ruin the Doctor's reputation everywhere.  But Yaz leaves him and flies away.  Getting out the Post Its from the book and placing them on the controls of the TARDIS on how to fly it.  She was taking notes then was she.

The Doctor gets to see her past selves, well not all, just One (David Bradley) Five (Peter Davison) Six (Colin Baker) Seven (Sylvester McCoy) Eight (Paul McGann).  Each one wearing a robe but Eight being an individual consciousness doesn't want to dress like that.  Telling her they're "at the edge..."  The Doctor appears as a hologram to Yaz and talks of how if she can see this it means she's no longer alive.  That's what the static shock was for as she implanted into them all.  Kate says she can level the building from the inside and Tegan and Ace need to leave by flying off the roof.  Tegan refuses to leave as it's her fault they're here.  Kate sends her to the basement to unplug the wires in the electrical interface as she'll act as a distraction.  Telling Ashad she has knowledge of everything.  He takes her to be converted and the Doctor appears to Tegan.  Finally being able to unplug the wires Kate is saved from her fate.  

Yaz along with Vinder take the Master back to St Petersburg and wants him to reverse the regeneration.  This he is tricked into doing as the Fugitive Doctor (Jo Martin) turns up and get him into the chamber where the Cybermaster's regenerative energy is transferred into the chamber and the Doctor returns.  The Daleks set their plan in motion and volcanoes erupt.  However Ace is on the case, as is Graham (Bradley Walsh).  How did he turn up and why he was there isn't really mentioned.  So he's still going round doing what he did with the Doctor.  Not explained at all.  Allowing Ace to set her bombs and destroy the Daleks.  The Doctor moves the cyberplanet to 2022 using the companions on each of the TARDIS consoles (as in Journey's End) and uses the cybermaster's metal to plug the lava flow.  As she repairs Vinder's ship and lets him fly home through the wormhole before it vanishes.  

Now freeing the Quornox energy the Master arrives to zap her with it thus sending her into another regeneration.  Yaz carries her back.  She eventually wakes and Yaz has dropped everyone off in Croydon.  As she begins ere regeneration, the Doctor asks if Yaz wants to go somewhere and have an ice cream, watching Earth with ice cream.  The best view where they have an emotional talk.  As the Doctor goes to regenerate alone and drops Yaz off back home.  She sees Graham and Dan with a map looking for a place.  Here it was Graham's idea to set up a group for companions to share their stories since no one else will believe them.  Attended by Kate, Tegan, Ace, Melanie Bush (Bonnie Langford) Jo Grant/Jones (Katy Manning) Ian Chesterton (William Russell).

The centenary episode proved to be good in some aspects and very familiar in other ways.  But not in other ways as The Doctor had less to do this ep and being so easily carted off and captured by the Daleks, the Master.  Not much of her quipping or Sonic use for the last time.  The last time we see Jodi as the Doctor and we don't get to see her much.  She goes off and regenerates like a bright lighthouse and out pops Doctor Ten (David Tennant) who now becomes Doctor Fourteen.  Who can't quite believe it's him again.  If you watch on BBC iPlayer you don't get to see a clip of the forthcoming adventures cos they cut the end credits and start another show.  It was Pointless, all pointless I tell you!  Yeah the next show that begins. 

Ghost Adventures "Lost Souls of Kingman"

Zak et al cross the road and get onto a school bus.  Kingman, Arizona and they head back to school. Lee Williams High School built on top of pioneer ceremony which was a burial ground from 1900-1970 where 60 bodies were bulldozed and forgotten.  Human remains have been coming to the surface.  They're at the graveyard and park on top of it to pick up the students and the students would find and bring in the bones.  Zak has been waiting years to investigate this location.  The building is still in use and that's what he finds unique.  As the spirits of these lost souls who are angry and have taken over the school.  The library Scott Taylor, former student and principal of the school.  A coffin in the library which contains history of the cemetery.  That's the reason why they think its haunted.  A tuba was needed from the school and he could hear brass instruments.  When he left he couldn't hear it, inside he could hear it again.  He's a sceptic and he can't explain why the tuba was playing.

The gravestone commemorates the resting place of those whose graves were desecrated.  Including the Hualapai Tribe.  Then he takes them to the doors where he was leaving and he heard a girl's voice asking him to stay.  He admits he was scared.  Zak not missing out on the opportunity to rib him about being a sceptic not long ago in the library.  A faculty woman says she also had an experience in a spot under the stairs where the door closed and she asked for it to open back there.  The Kingman Superintendent of Schools was also affected.  The lights went out in the teacher's room bathroom.  The door wouldn't open.  Students speak of seeing a man in a bowler hat.  Molly and Reilly, Scott's twin daughters saw something in the locker room.  Heard the toilet flushing, toilet rolls moving and the door slammed on them.  A child's voice is heard in the bathroom.  Doesn't the voice sound like a door creaking.  Britney, another teacher tells them about Poltergeist activity when a chair moved and then it rolled back again.  During an organized stay of the school at night, she had another experience hearing a bloodcurdling scream, that of a small child.  

Known as the bowler hat man whom everyone has seen.  Is the spirit of Clement C Lee - hanged for gunning down his girlfriend in 1905.  Buried in the cemetery and their bodies are still underneath the school.  Zak says there are spirits everywhere where they're walking over someone's body.  They didn't have any identification of them.  Zak's jealous of the students as they attend school with spirits and that's "the history class that I wanted to go to."  Zak brings Scott back and plays back the EVPs they have caught.  Billy and Aaron went into the basement using the  ITC device, the Polterpod, and recorders.  Stating they got intelligent responses.  Zak loves teaching paranormal in the classroom.  Wasn't he asked several times about what he would do if he ever stopped investigating and maybe teach years ago.  

In the cage Aaron set two recorders, one voice activated.  Aaron asks who he is?  A response is heard "yeah."  The same voice was heard again.  "Get on the floor" "duck down."  The Ovilus got responses.  "Can You" come through on the Ovilus together.  There are tunnels under the town too and it was a mining town.  Aaron asks if it wants them to stay longer.  "Stay" is heard.  Billy asks if the child's spirit is still here.  "Eleven" and the device said many other responses "aqua ashes July."  3 July 1973 11 firefighters were killed in a propane tank explosion.  The school was named after one of the firemen.  Scott says the 11 was cut from the tank as a memorial to those 11.  Billy put the device on the 11 but nothing else came through.  At the cage "Death Rodger Monument."  Roger was one of the firefighters.  Zak adding it's just another layer adding to the hauntings.

Zak and Jay stay at the building.  Aaron and Billy investigate the girl's locker room.  Aaron says he heard a desk moving in one of the classrooms and a shuffling of shoes, but nothing is seen or heard when they look.  They hear a door slam.  Right where Roger's photo is hanging.  They head to the cafeteria and a voice is heard on the camera's audio.  They say sounds like "don't come in."  A voice comes through saying "help us."  Before Aaron hears a voice say "treasure" or is it "present" and then "they're free."  Then a woman's voice says "old one."  Heading to the sport's field.  They have cameras everywhere.  Billy catches a dark shadow walking at the top but doesn't notice at the time as the LCD screen on his camera is too small.  Appearing where the bodies are still buried under the field.  But was it an actual shadow figure?  

Zak enters the bathroom and when they come back out Jay hears a noise.  Zak says they want to learn about what happens when they die and this is a good place to learn, at a school.  Zak reaches out to the man wearing the bowler hat.  A bang is heard.  A light anomaly comes towards him in response to his request.  Zak finds the poster saying "we don't need ghosts we have physics" and calls it "cute."  A man's voice is heard on the boom mic.  Something like "come here sit down??"  Then a locker opens.  They're the only ones in the building.  In the science room, there are books on the desk, they say are piled up in a funny way.  Strange glowing anomalies are caught when Zak is setting up his camera.  He places a recorder on the books and places two balls which will light up when touched.  They light up on cue.  They don't light up again but he feels the spirit's energy still there and he is cold.  The balls only light up when they're touched.  

They head back to where they heard the man's voice and use the Polterpod where the room still contains the earth.  They call it a portal.  A name comes through on the Polterpod.  Jay feels something rush him and Zak hands him the Polterpod.  "Diller Ties Tyes"?  Could it be Lee??  Have to listen again on headphones or something similar.  Is this where you come?  Answer: "Yeah."  Based on their evidence Zak concludes it is an active portal.  

Ghost Adventures "Los Feliz Murder House Part 2"

In the attic where the bang was heard.  Zak asks what's here and for it to use their energy.  They're here to help anyone who's lost and asks to come upstairs.  He asks why Harold killed his wife and wants him to speak.  Billy captures an anomaly near Aaron who shoos it away on the XLS.  A light anomaly too.  Zak and Kevin both cough.  They're inhaling the spirit.  The ball anomaly moves weirdly.  Spirit energy leaves Aaron's body.  Zak leaves the attic after feeling uncomfortable.  He has chest pains and a pointy anomaly enters him.  Aaron says he sounded like an angry, old woman.  Aaron also smells perfume.  Zak bleeds but there's no cut on his hand.  Aaron says they're the only ones who will talk to it like this.  Recorder captures a screaming growl.  A man replies "fuck you."  Probably confirming the EVP from last week where I heard similar.  Kevin leaves.  An invocation ceremony is going to be conducted by Jay.  Which will make the whole place dangerous to everyone.  It gets colder.

The recorder starts playing in Zak's pocket.  A female scream is heard and Aaron is "zoned out."  The recorder catches "Aaron."  Even before he gets affected.  Jay opens the first gate and Aaron smells firewood.  The second gate is open and Billy feels back pain as soon as Jay pings the bell.  The atmosphere changes and a loud bang is heard.  I also heard a moan.  An anomaly follows Aaron as he goes upstairs.  Billy feels dizzy and Zak catches a mist leaving the circle towards him.  Again as soon as Jay hits the bell.  Billy is affected with anger and Zak asks if Harold was affected with something dark and by reading Dante's Inferno.  Billy heads upstairs and shouts at Harold.  Calling him a coward he killed himself.  He provokes him.  Something gets thrown and a rock lands in the centre of the circle.  An apport : an object from the doorway of another dimension.  Is also hot on the thermal.  As Billy invokes Harold. 

Zak adds they've come back and he can't end their investigations based on the emotions he felt.  When he cried and felt Lillian's sadness.  Believing she's there and contacting him.  Billy also felt something evil and took him over.  The same force that "may" have possessed Harold.  On the same hill as The House On Haunted Hill.  Frank Lloyd Wright when he built it also mentioned that.  He wants to take it to the next level.  Trying to get answers showing Harold was possessed with evil.  Richard Layle psychic medium.  He says he was woken by a leopard man.  Leaving Dante's book open.  Demon Orsa is a leopard demon: a trickster.  Making people think they're a king or a monster.  Canto 1 in Dante's Inferno.  The first demon he meets is a leopard demon.  It wasn't financial difficulties affecting Harold but evil.  They did the ceremony using an ancient ritual adapted to this house.  Richard says the gates are still open.

Richard is a Satanist and psychic medium and Zak wants to see how the house reacts to him and how he's affected.  Bill Chappell has create goggles.  He wants to do this.  The independent company used, show a 3D rep of the first floor using the liDAR and Slam tech seeing the map in real time.  Catching whatever is there.  Laser scanning tech.  Billy, Zak and Richard will take part in the experiment.  Wearing goggles designed as a sensory deprivation experiment causing sight and hearing to close into an alpha state and connecting to other users.  Richard does the same as Kevin and enters the house alone.  Richard uses ritual items and speaks in ritualistic terminology.  Billy is worried about carrying out the experiment.  A light anomaly comes out of the mirror.  

Richard rings the bell and light anomalies come out of the floor where they conducted their own ritual.  Zak feels his mind is going through the house and he can only see Richard.  He sees someone behind Richard with horns.  Richard asks who's behind him.  Zak imitates Richard's movements without knowing what he's doing.  He was told to stand up by something.  Anomalies behind Richard and he grabs the back of his head.  The full spectrum camera captures a black shadow in front of Richard.  Billy says he had to stop and hears heavy breathing downstairs and tapping on his chair.  Zak sees a young woman crying.  A lucid vision which he knows is the woman he felt emotional over.  He tries to protect her.  She was crying and had curly, brown hair.  As she was being chased by Richard.  Thus channelling Harold when he was attacking Judy.  He believes he was protecting her sister from Harold.  Richard felt threatened that someone was coming upstairs to kill him.  

The lydar team come in to scan the house.  Richard lies down where Harold killed his wife and feeling the moment where he killed himself.  Aaron follows Zak into the room and Zak sees he's got blood on his face.  Richard says he saw the cops during their experiment.  Aaron bumped the chair and went to Zak and was going to drag Zak out of the room.  Billy mentions the chair was also making noises.  Cops actually turn up.  That's when Judy ran away and called the police.  Who had a light when they came.  They leave the house and the lydar team find a "ghost chair."  Zak refers to as a "phantom chair."  Showing them what a real chair would look like.  There's no chair inside the same room of the house.  Comparing the two scans, there is no chair.  Zak said they all sat on the chair and was making noises.  They carry out a third scan.  There isn't any chair in the third scan.  Did Harold start being drawn into the occult by reading Dante's Divine Comedy, was he the fourth person joining their experiment and was this is the fourth chair he sat in during their experiment?

Lots going on and plenty to ponder over.  Especially the dark evil that can possess someone and cause them to do evil things.  As well as being open to such actions.  This was a creepy ep!
