Ghost Adventures "Pasadena Ritual House"

                                               
Why do these episodes all have a 'ritual house' tag anyway and yes they're also associated with Satanic rituals, demons and something dark.  Why don't they come up with more catchy titles (ha).  Also I found this episodes rather repetitive in content, as though everything happened on cue.  Maybe it does the paranormal being so unpredictable and sure as that happens, Aaron has his first and last seance with using the Ouija board and his name comes through, or as close as possible, "GODWIN" with a woman saying she's been waiting for him.  A shame the question of who she was and why she wanted him wasn't asked on the Puck either.  Or perhaps it was, but we just didn't get to see that part.  It was easy to see that's what the letters would spell out.  Also a question as to why it was spelled "God" and not with two 'o's.

Then again as regular as clockwork, there are three knocks from Richard's bedroom wall.  Again as we've discussed on occasions, they don't necessarily have to be associated with the Holy Trinity and mocking it.  They could just as easily be three knocks which is commonplace for people to use when they knock on a door.  Wonder why they didn't let Jay in on the seance, giving his past history with the Ouija board.  I just find that part more than just coincidental.  As Aaron was the one sitting next to Richard and holding his hand.  Why didn't Zak sit next to him or Billy.

Patty Negri brought them to the house and tells them about Richard, a friend she's met the last year and has participated in a seance with him.  He's a psychic medium as well.  She saw the darkness from behind and figures and she doesn't know if they were demons.  This 1890 Victorian home appears to be a mystery as to why it's so highly charged and Zak speaking with Richard.  He claims to be haunted himself as well as the house being haunted before he arrived here.  He's a Satanist and he believes in "inter-dimensional beings" and the devil.  He conjures and he closes the door afterwards.  The events open with tapping or the chandelier shakes.  The original owner of the house has communicated with him and a woman who asked for a seance and she spoke of her son and wanted to cause him harm.

Dawn, a room mate, spoke of a man getting into bed with her and suffering sleep paralysis.  It could have been the original owner, Victor.
Zak believing her bedroom is a portal.  As they use the SLS a figure appears on her shoulder.  As well as having an attachment.  Which appears as he uses the word "darker."  Oh stop calling her a woman, her name was Dawn, you can't just forget their names so easily.  A figure also stands on the seance table and on the chair by it.  As the equipment makes a buzzing sound.  Zak takes a Polaroid photo.  When he looked at the Polaroid with the white mass, it appears to be a hooded man, or at least it resembles some sort of a figure.  Apparently it appears the energy in the house has changed and there's a full moon too.

Using the digital recorder a voice comes through saying "have a drink."  It's when Zak talks of the chair, that's what they do when they take part in the seance and drink as pointed out by Billy too.
During the seance the table rocks. Billy and Zak hear a hissing sound later in one of the bedrooms and the jar on the dresser rattles. On the Direct Link which Aaron is holding, a woman says "coming" a different voice says "for you."  "The enact? will haunt Satan" is what I heard when the man comes through, not "you will want Satan."  Which doesn't really make sense, he doesn't want Satan.  Though listening to it over it sounds like "will upon" and not "haunt."
The 'unexplained woman's voice' on the Direct Link at approx 31 minutes, says "she's here, I'm sure."  Probably in reference to the woman coming for Aaron.  As there are lights seen at the same time.  Then after listening to this a few times, she sounds like "sit there, I'm sure."  Aggh so frustrating!

When Zak takes photos by the bathroom on the Polaroid there's a face captured in the light anomaly.  Took this pic with the phone and it resembles a proper man's face rather more than a clownish face in the Polaroid.

Here Billy gets a stabbing pain in his head.  Aaron want to go into the room and get angry at them. 

"Who are you attached to?" Zak asks on the Puck.
Sign
Card

"What do you want to tell Aaron Goodwin?"
Keep
Being
Devil  Is Aaron a demon in disguise?  Just joking.

Tom
Hematus comes through: an ancient deity from Ancient Babylon, whose name means 'secret'.  Known as a demon now.  The Puck turns off and something was touching Aaron's hand.  Way to scare Aaron with him going to be affected by this long after they leave here.  But he is used to this kind of activity though not directed all towards him.  Who is Tom??

Emailed those pics to post here and the one with the anomaly on the chair didn't go through.  Yikes, also when I opened up the face one to upload all I saw were two creepy eyes staring at me??!!

Ghost Adventures "Cerro Gordo Ghost Town"

                                             
Another western adventure as they head to Cerro Gordo Ghost town in California fully equipped in cowboy attire, well hats and boots.  A mining town which holds spirits from a mine collapse where at least 35 Chinese perished in an area known as the China Stope and a poker player getting shot in the poker room with his blood still staining the floor where he was shot and died.  The bullet hole still ridding the wall too.  With witnesses telling of being pounced upon in bed with pressure on their chest and seeing a full blown man in the Bell Shaw house.  Also the place where two children locked themselves into a trunk and died.  Lots of scary stuff going on here, not least of which was Zak's driving up the dirt road to the town. Including the caretaker, Robert and the historian's wife telling of their experiences.  Dr Jonathan Vanover a computer engineer, PhD had a recording where you can hear children. 

Zak and Billy head to the building where the poker player, Alphonse Benoit was killed and Billy's hand freezes, caught on the thermal it's blue when it should have been orange/red coloured.  As well as the thermal capturing a free floating spirit in the spot where he was killed. 

Zak brings back Tim France (The Pioneer Saloon ep) to dig for artifacts, where Zak's more afraid of snakes.  Finding yet more nails with the metal detector.  Billy and Aaron send a Go Pro camera down the mining shaft attached to the deep sea fishing rod where the Chinese miners died.  Billy manages to find the horizontal shaft leading to the mine. 

Zak and Aaron head back to the Bell Shaw house as Billy heads back to the mine shaft with Jay.  Zak tries to lock Aaron in the closet but he holds the door open with his foot.  Zak catches a light anomaly fly past him and reacts to it.  Jay and Billy hear banging sounds, it sounds like hammering, maybe for help or actual mining.  Zak captures a light anomaly over the bed when setting up cameras. 

Asking someone to "please play with us" as they go to separate rooms.  Footsteps can be heard from the living room.  Aaron asking if it's nice to have some attention and then later he farts due to the pressure and being nervous!  Ha.  Billy lowers a digital recorder and camera on the fishing reel.  Billy says he'd freak out if someone pulled on the line.  He later feels tugging on the line and the camera catches the reel being pulled down after Jay tells if he sees the "stuff hanging by the mine."  EVPs "can somebody hear me" and "I'm going to work."  Gotta say they don't sound like miners, uncannily the one that says "I'm going to work" sounds almost like Zak??  The "somebody hear me" almost sounds like a high pitched Billy almost as it's an echo of him.  Or I'm hearing things!  Ha.

Outside where the bodies are buried in the graveyard Zak sees a ball of light travelling down from the mountain.  In the bunkhouse, Jay is walked up on from behind and a bang can be heard in the hallway.  In the hotel, Aaron has a tingling sensation in his finger. Not knowing Billy felt the same earlier on.  A noise is heard from the poker room.  An EVP is caught there "you both just walked to me" or is it "talked", I hear talked it makes more sense since they were talking more than walking.  "Imagine you sure fuckin' talked to me" after playing it several time is what I get. 

The Ovilus shows "slain" as Zak places it over the bullet hole.  Would've been interesting if he asked who he was talking to.  In the kitchen he hears a groan when the anomaly enters the kitchen door after Zak sees the flying anomaly show up again.  Maybe it's such an ancient spirit it resembles this form.  As well as resembling a bird.

A full bodied apparition is captured outside by the game camera. 

What's remarkable or uncanny is the very first apparition they captured was caught by Nick in the Old Washoe Club during their documentary, another western town in Virginia City, as well as the same or similar anomaly that was caught at the Washoe Club in one of their later GA eps.  Is this following them or timely showing up here when they arrive, as the voices they still get of their names when they've returned back to Washoe Club in the past and even when they're not there.  It just seems so much more than a coincidence. 

Ghost Adventures "Albion Castle"

                                           
Albion Castle, San Francisco, have heard of this place so many times for so long and it becomes a GA investigation.  Not surprising there is a woman spirit appearing everywhere since it is built on Ohlone Indian burial mounds.  Especially where they buried children.  So it wasn't very surprising that they picked up on screaming there, which could be from a burial.  Okay let me just say it straight out here, started watching the ep and about ten minutes into it, my left eye felt irritated.  You know when you get an eyelash in it and it stings sometimes until you get it out, well there wasn't any eyelash in it but it felt kinda sore and a little red.  Telling my sis I hope there won't be any eye stuff going on in this ep!!  Uncannily or coincidentally Zak felt some eye pain during the investigation!  Holy heck let it not be like the eye pain of the Demon House doco all over again when it came to my eye pain!  Luckily it wasn't!  Soo I have no idea why that happened, I just thought of it and there you have it!

The Ohone Indians fought over this land and for the water underneath the land.  Spring water which has healing properties and was considered sacred by them.  There are three tunnels (and someone out there shouts Zak used the word "moist" to describe the passageways! Ha.)  Owner, Jennifer's daughter, Gerelyn had an encounter with the "woman in white" for the first time in her bedroom as she hovered over her bed.  The second time she saw her was when she took her friends to the tunnel and went swimming in the water.  She saw her in the water.  But why would you even go swimming there to begin with, yes it's natural water, but you don't really know what's in there.  It's no wonder she appeared to her, probably protecting the water.

Aaron thinks he and cameraman Mike may have heard a woman singing.  Zak thinks it could be audio pareidolia.  Doesn't sound like singing.  Jennifer's five year old daughter also saw the woman and she told the woman that she would stay there.  The landscaper left and never returned.  The Stone Tape theory is mentioned again, which states past events are recorded in the stone.  Contractor Jeff also saw the mysterious dark haired woman in one of the windows at the top of the tower.  Using an underwater camera to see what's in the water, they find a jawbone and teeth, belonging to a possum but can't work out how it drowned.

Billy applies a Go-Pro to a remote boat, balanced with plastic bottles for buoyancy and the camera shuts off, as well as having its battery drained.  Also there seems to be a mist appearing at the end of the tunnel where the camera went out.  Billy and Aaron try to get some voices on the recorder by placing it on a stick and lowering it through the hole above the water in the cavern below where they just were, but receive no replies.  Lots of light anomalies are seen including a twisty one.

Seen by the stair where I screen shot it, maybe it's me but I see a woman's face in there.  Could be a woman, but it does look like a face.
In front of the kitchen where Zak sits, a light anomaly is seen and an EVP of a male voice Hecob??  A tap is heard from the wall when the light anomaly is seen on the wood at the side.

In the tower, Aaron and Billy set up a Geophone in the window to pick up any movement.  As screams are heard by all three.  Could they be from a burial that took place there?  After which Zak gets pain behind his eyes, around 31 minutes into the ep.  Aaron and Billy hear a voice.  When Billy tells it to show it's here.  I heard "I am" but it doesn't sound female to me.  Zak feels sick and a response is received from the Direct Link device, I don't hear "Jesus" but "believe us or leave us."  Zak strips!  As he has scratches on his back and a red mark forms on camera too running down his back.

Even the front of his body was affected too.

When Billy gets a reading on the Geophone a light anomaly goes past it and then by Zak's leg.  A female voice says "stay positive."  I hear "what price" when the light anomaly goes over the direct link.  As in what price are they willing to pay for being here perhaps.  A stick figure is picked up on the SLS and looks to be moving in an erratic manner, or could be doing some sort of a dance.

Ghost Adventures Hallowe'en Special "Curse of the Harrisville Farmhouse"

                                              
The Harrisville Farmhouse, Rhode Island, investigation proved to be as disturbing as was promised.  The curse upon the Arnold family from a century ago and the black mass seen in 1973 which led to this paranormal activity.  Seen by the Perron family to the point where a seance led to the mother of the family being thrown across the room in her chair.  Zak brought back the daughter of the Perron family, Andrea, to the house. Currently the present family Corey and Jen, who bought the house in 2019 are concerned for their son, Kyler who also witnessed the black mass; as did their friend Bill.  Kyler refused to return to the house for two weeks.  Zak wanted Andrea to show them inside the house, who was grateful to Zak for his work.  She advised caution with something that Lorraine Warren unleashed.  She told Andrea she didn't know that she and Ed were "in over their heads forty years ago."  The story being made into the films The Conjuring and now number 3 is on the way.

Andrea could hear footsteps outside their room and her sister got into bed with her the first night they moved in and could hear voices.  The farmhouse going back decades and also how there are seven dead soldiers buried in the outside wall.  The library was her parent's bedroom, where Zak felt unbalanced and anxiety.  Feeling no anger until he entered that room.  The Perron children witnessed the seance and saw their mother fly across the room.  As well as the table lifting from the floor.  Billy and Jay getting so phased out and seeing figures. 

Carl and Keith Johnson were investigating the house before the Warrens arrived there.  They could feel electricity around the area when they arrived and saw something dark by the bedroom at that time.  The drone caught a black mass in the screen area of the porch.  Also a storm approaches. Footsteps are heard upstairs, potentially, as Zak takes Polaroids.  Carl uses an old cassette recorder.  Feeling a transient cool breeze.  When a prayer is read a growl is heard.  A creaking sound from the chair can be heard.  A black mass passes in front of Billy when he is downstairs alone and is captured on his camera.  As Zak sits in a rocking chair upstairs two stick figures appear.  One appears to be on the ceiling with the second one reaching out to it. 

In the Polaroid a black mass appears at the bottom of the photo which is gone from the next photo taken immediately afterwards. 

Zak feels pain on his side where his kidney is located, like a knife.  In the same room where Carl felt a stinging in his fingers.  Zak finds himself unable to speak when he tries to tell us this is where they saw the flickering light in the photo. 

Zak decides to investigate by the river as he believes this is where some from of activity takes place.  Another growl is heard.  Receiving a message on his phone which he swears he switched off: "are you dead?"  What was uncannily funny, unintentionally of course, are the words under which say: "I don't have the answer for that.  Is there something else I can help you with."  The voice Zak catches on the parabolic mic says "reverse back" almost automotively, like it was something from a car or truck.  And sees a ball of light in the woods.  Using the thermal he sees a mass move across one of the windows which Aaron says is the window of the library. 

Not so clear on this photo, as my screen shots aren't working, but there seems to be a figure circled in red in the next window.  Go back and rewatch if you didn't see it.  I didn't pay attention to it at first. The black figure was in the window on the left.

Aaron doesn't want to go any further.  As Zak calls Cody to ask if Jay can carry out a conjure ritual   in the basement and he can close it afterwards.  Using salt to form a circle, he and Aaron sit inside the circle as Zak heads to Andrea's old room and Billy investigates in the dining room.   "Cellar; lasting; blaze" show on the Ovilis.  Billy hears footsteps in the library or seance room and can't move.   A loud thump can be heard by all of them.  As Billy checks on Zak, Billy then captures hangers moving on the closet railing.  Jay comes to find Billy and Zak but feels like he's in another time as he hears walking upstairs.  He then closes the ritual and buries the ashes outside. 

At his museum, Zak sits on the Devil's rocking chair feeling a shock and days later says he's got a pain in his back. 
Explaining to Kevin, the ET reporter who visits the museum for a second time; he was violently ill after this investigation which lasted for around three weeks.  Kevin refuses to touch the chair and Zak tells him he's mocked it and it's then he says he feels a pain in his back and isn't sure what caused it.  Zak invites him back to the museum next Hallowe'en and to spend the night alone there by himself, which he replies would break him.  Zak adding then they'd investigate as to what happened and why.  At the 26.59 mark there's an orb that flies over Kevin's head which appears to go into the top of his head. 

Don't know if that's why he felt a pain in his back or if the orb appeared from elsewhere in the museum.  Heck I'd spend a night there, but on the provision someone else could be brought in with me.  Well you need back up incase something goes wrong, even if you would be filmed.
