Ghost Adventures "Industrial District of the Damned"

                                           Ghost Adventures S21E09 Industrial District Of The Damned WEB x264 ...
Vincent Lords told them of this location and texts them telling them to be careful and about a break-in and everything was ransacked and he thinks there's an open portal there and 'something' broke in.  Calling it a "psychological attack."  With reference to an "old hag" attaching itself to people and believes this is demonic.  A question Zak had to get in.  The building is in Salt Lake city's industrial district.  He thinks it is a open to darkness.  Hraefn tells them about the break-in and in the basement he found a pentagram made of sticks with flowers too.  As Jay explains it was made on the Winter Solstice so they were trying to summon whatever and a means to bringing nature inside. They could have summoned something "unnatural."  He explains how he saw a woman after he heard a whisper.  He saw an image in his head of a crazy woman with wild hair.  Referring it to as "old hag."  The spirit of an evil witch, who turned demonic and feeding off the living spirits of people.  He says it was attached when he went home.

Zak also gets an image in his head too.  With a woman laughing which Hraefn says he heard that too.  Misty, a psychic medium shows Billy and Aaron a mirror which the old hag uses as a portal and says there's a picture of her in the mirror.  Where Misty also shows them the mirrors where she has also been seen.  Her friend, Maxine also experienced the same and got an attachment.  She doesn't recall looking in the mirror and being so angry.  This happened a year and a half before the ritual was performed.  Thus the location was active even before.  As Santa shows up!  So if Zak was cold why doesn't he wear more layers and a decent jacket!

Aaron and Billy get a voice saying "awful."  Then they heard a voice come though three times. "Break it...something??" It brings...it's Craig..." ??
Another voice at 16.28 says "Ich bin...nothin" and that's what my sis said but I dismissed it until listening with my headphones.  And darn I'm the one who knows German!! Ha.  Ich bin is German for "I am."  Could this be a German hag or spirits coming through the portal.
Zak says some vagrants would've died here and the ritual changes the investigation.

Billy sets up a meter which tests resistance and put a metal screen over the whole mirror with crocodile clips connected with a continuity tester.  It has to be zeroed in.  If there's a disturbance in the EMF field from the mirror then the needle will move.  It's not affected by any mobiles or other equipment.  Zak has a feeling before they sync all their cameras together.   Bad intuition.  Was this a premonition of the mirror activity.  Aaron's Geophone picks up interference and Jay mentioned the woman being pushed down the stairs.  It turns blue as Billy asks if it's taking credit for it.

Sitting at the location where the pentagram was found, the temperature drops and something is on Zak's back as it's freezing cold there.  Jay sets up a Tesla coil creating high voltage at a low current.  Making wireless electricity.  Charging the area to reopen the portal.  They plug a spirit box into it.  You can hear the sweeps in the air, transforming the audio frequency into EM energy into the air.  An anomaly goes through Zak when he jumps.  A woman says "talking."  When they daisy chain the entire connection I don't hear "you get 'em" but "you damned."  Which makes more sense when you think about it.  Not withstanding that was the title of this ep!  They had to shut the experiment down when they were getting somewhere.  They hear footsteps upstairs.

When Billy dares it to come through I see faces in the mirror, don't know about anyone else. They can't be reflections that clear at least as they're filming in the dark.  I didn't hear a laugh but a deep breath unless it was one of them breathing.  Two stick figures are caught on the SLS coming through the mirror.  Then Aaron sees a face in the mirror to the side.  Where Zak captures the face of an old woman on the Polaroid.  It resembles a ceramic doll face.  Also what's that puppet-like face on the right of it.  Which I don't see in any of the other pics, not that we saw all of them.  There aren't any objects/mannequins like that.  There appears to be a ceramic mask-like face next to the larger mirror but not where he took the photo so it wouldn't be reflected like that.  Also it's facing the wrong way.

Aaron sees the hag with his own eyes and Zak takes some Polaroids.  Capturing the hag.  What's the other face next to it on the right, it even looks like it has eyebrows.  Marked in yellow.  But actually there's a lot going on in that pic, I see more than the hag's face, but other smaller faces too.

Sorry they wouldn't rotate and the bottom one isn't so clear...

 When he takes the Polaroid in an effort to debunk it when both the hag face disappears but also that puppet-like face too that was on the right??? which isn't in any of the other angled shots either.

Belgravia Episode 6

                                             Belgravia, episode 6 review: this packed finale missed out the bit ...
This episode seemed quite rushed as if trying to get all loose ends tied before the climax and still try and retain a dramatic thread running through it.  With James (Philip Glenister) getting to the bottom of the Manchester mill affair and finding out that the men were going to underpay for the mill and so obviously the widow would have accepted a 400% higher offer.  Charles (Jack Bardoe) keeping on the mill hand as he was worthless as a manager and so he could keep his family fed.  Thus discrediting anything that would ruin Charles's reputation.  John (Adam James) still schemes over trying to get his inheritance but he doesn't reckon with Susan (Alice Eve) double crossing him.  She tells him she's pregnant and would divorce Oliver (Richard Goulding) if he will marry her.  But he's looking for a woman of means now that he won't be marrying the penniless Maria and getting money.  Susan attempting to entice him with money her father would pay her as she's his only heir.  Thus being the woman "breadwinner."  Obviously he wants much more than that and endless money on tap.  She asks him to call a carriage for her so they don't part on less than amicable terms and steals the proof about the Bellasis marriage being real.  Another bungle on John's part. 

Lady Brockenhurst (Harriet Walter) still wants Maria (Ella Purnell) marrying Charles and tells her that he doesn't know who he really is.  They want to break it to him.  Lady Templemore (Tara Fitzgerald) visits insisting that she wants Maria home so she can send her to Castle Grey and ponder on her decision to refuse John.  Maria has already written refusing him.  Speer (Bronogh Gallagher) comes up with the plan for Susan to give James the papers under the guise of saying the boy handed them to her in the street and writes a note as he doesn't know her handwriting.  Susan knows Speer can blackmail her but it seems she still wants to serve her, unlike Ellis (Saskia Reeves).  As she gives him the note, she also tells James that she is with child and he is pleased.  Saying he will break it to Anne (Tamsin Greig) as well.  James tells Anne about the letter and she gives him the original copies Jane gave her.  He wants the marriage authenticated before they take any action.  As Anne says they should have looked for him years ago.  Which is what I said last ep.  Even though he says they didn't know Botheray's name.  It would have been simple enough to make enquiries, or didn't they know he was in the same regiment as Bellasis.

Ellis admits she knew about the letters, she could've just kept her mouth shut but wanted to save her skin and blames it all on Turton (Paul Ritter).  She will get references if she tells them who was behind it.  And she agrees, saying it was John.  Turton is fired and drinks one of the best bottles of wine in the house.  He thinks he can just blackmail Susan.  However Speer puts an end to it knowing she can get a position at Buckingham Palace if anything jeopardizes her position in the household and threatens with reporting his stealing of supplies for Mrs Babbage.  So she was willing to move away with Susan was she.  Funny how Anne claims the writing in the copies of the letters looks familiar but she doesn't know Turton's handwriting having him in their employ for years!

Anne knows of Susan's indiscretion and says she won't tell James and deprive him of a grandchild so long as she retires to Glenville with Oliver.  He will become a squire and she will be able to visit every two months.  It would be a good place to raise a child as she convinces Oliver to go along with her.  Anne telling Susan it must be a relief to know she wasn't barren.  The Trenchard women proving every bit as manipulative as each other to get happiness for their family without a hint of scandal.  As Anne tells Lady Brockenhurst she plans to have a dinner where they can break it to everyone and Charles when her husband arrives in London.  Though she agrees it's a good idea for lawyers to check beforehand. 

John still wants revenge and he gets Oliver to write a note to Charles whilst drunk asking him to meet at the Black Raven inn, which Oliver can't recall later as he tells James what is happening.  He deemed himself to be a worthless son and only regrets that he wasn't the one in Sophia's place and couldn't take it now.  As they find the meeting place, James tells Oliver about Charles and he asks why he couldn't tell him.  He wouldn't have revealed anything about his sister to anyone.  Charles is taken to the river and he struggles with John who wants to keep his inheritance, throwing him into the river.  As James and Oliver approach in the nick.  James dives in and Oliver does too after John tries to convince him to think of his inheritance if they both go under.  Saving them both, Oliver doesn't want his father's thanks.

As all is revealed to Charles.  Susan tells Oliver that he has redeemed himself and they both faced temptation but it is better to have confronted it than to deny it.  She doesn't think him worthless and is proud of him.  Only cos she will get to live out comfortably her life and have a home for her child.  As the news is broken to all Peregrine (Tom Wilkinson) says they aren't cursed after all and Maria's uncle, Lord Templemore (Frank Kerr) even agrees to the match as they haven't had a gifted tradesman in the family since the Middle Ages or thereabouts.  As a final gesture Lady Brockenhurst agrees to pay off the Reverend's (James Fleet) debts once off.  But he thinks he can swindle them for more and then still continue his gambling.  Grace (Diana Hardcastle) being more concerned about John and then discovers her silver has gone! 

Charles wants them to leave John alone and provide him with an income.  Peregrine being satisfied that he will continue to rot on the Continent.  Charles and Maria marry and the two families are reunited.  A bit of a Pride and Prejudice wedding with the newly weds leaving the church and James asking whether he can now call Lady Templemore Corrine.
Have to wonder if there is a second series what they would possibly do with it, besides more of the same.  Watching the newly weds in India or something.

Ghost Adventures "Beneath the Bonanza"

                                                 Ghost Adventures Investigates Virginia City's Bonanza Saloon ...
Another return to Virginia City, Nevada and this time the Bonanza saloon.  Where Zak has a dance and makes Jasmine's day as she meets him there on her birthday.  She'll treasure this episode! The building is 180 years old and the building contains 'The Suicide Table'.  Vince owned the place since 2014 and is the fourth owner.  The previous three all killed themselves.  There was blast at the saloon but the table was saved.  Three card players lost their land, property and committed suicide at the table.  They didn't need to be so graphic in their reconstruction of the deaths at the table especially considering lots of younger viewers watch the show and there was no warning.  At least there wasn't on the uploaded version, not sure about TV.  Readings soar from the Geophone and the EMF.  The residual energy doesn't necessarily have to be from the three previous owners.

Doug mentions the activity in the basement where one of the women felt groped and the other one passed out and needed to be resusitated.  She had a moment as Doug describes it where she was "technically dead."  Zak automatically assuming it could be a demon.  Aaron and Billy enter the basement cos he doesn't want to go in first and the Geophone lights up blue and stops on cue when Billy asks it to.  Heard a woman scream don't know if it came through the device, which Zak says was an EVP or was actually in the building.  Zak finds out about a prostitute named Julia Bulette.  She was murdered near the saloon.  John Millian was accused of her murder but he denied it and only admitted stealing her jewels.  They still hanged him.  Still wonder why people have problems with 'hanged' and 'hang'. Objects are hung, people are hanged!

Heading to the Silver Queen Hotel and speaking with Connie.  He has a go at the shooting machine and gets a turn for $1 instead of $2.  Th miners were in awe with Julia as were the firemen.  They even gave her a fire helmet and a shirt.  Connie thinks that John did kill her.  It could be his spirit affecting women but they didn't make an effort to get to the bottom of this murder mystery throughout the investigation, so much for wanting to know who is haunting there.  Plenty of cold pockets, some orbs/light anomalies and Zak being out of it as if he was taken over and being threatening towards Billy, telling him "to stop doing it.".  Even thinking of killing him at one point.  Aaron thinks he twisted his ankle.  Later they get a voice coming through saying "ankle."  Telling the spirit to get out of him.

Using the Direct Link device to communicate.  When he asks "who is affecting you?" that faint voice sounds like "get out" or "up" but it's not clear.  Aaron asks if Julia is here.  I hear "in this spot" not "he's coming."  When he asks "who's coming" I hear "John." 
Zak: "Did you kill Julia?"
Answer: "Did."
"Who's coming for us?"
Answer: "listen."

The first time Aaron uses the Direct Link a male voice says "ankle." (See above.)  When Aaron feels touched a voice says "take Aaron."  When he asks who touched his back, I don't hear a laugh though it could be but it sounds like "touch my back." 
"Two" in response to how many spirits are here? 

Billy uses the Ovilus 5 and asks the spirit to draw a line towards the lights, a cross is drawn and the line is already begun before he asks.  He asks if it's Julia and the line continues to the green in response to "true."  Jay investigates with Billy and he felt comfortable in the shed but Aaron didn't want to stay with him.  How could it be poltergeist energy, could be anything like a spirit when the knock is heard. When Billy opens the Ovilus it says "bang."  Were the unexplained two bangs gunshots??  Billy's back begins to hurt and the Ovilus says "murder."  Tapping is heard outside the door where Billy is.  At the suicide table he uses the Polterpod and gets "Jesus rising."
Zak says the spiral of cold air will envelop and enter you if you don't move.  He challenges anyone to come and investigate.  Could've done the investigation they intended to conduct as well as the murder.

Belgravia Episode 5

                                                What's on TV tonight: Melodrama Belgravia reaches the penultimate ...
Things were hotting up this episode as everyone was trying to hide secrets, find them out, stop a wedding, reveal the truth. John (Adam James) gets Turton (Paul Ritter) to search James's office at home and he does whilst all are at dinner.  Under the pretense of searching for a particular vintage of wine which he says they're out of.  He claims his twenty quid but keeps back the details of the clergyman Pope.  Asking for another £20.  Well more fool John for tipping them in pennies when they would rise to the occasion and want more.  He finds out how James was interested in Charles (Jack Bardoe) from an early age, wasn't that well known anyway.  He visits his widow and says that he is here on behalf of Charles.  However he gives himself away as he didn't know that the clergyman passed away last year since Charles would've told him.  She tells him to leave and says she will write to James (Philip Glenister) about his intrusion.

As Lady Brockenhurst (Harriet Walter) Maria (Ella Purnell) and Anne (Tamsin Greig) plan another visit to Charles's office, they are surprised with the arrival of Lady Templemore (Tara Fitzgerald) already seated as she found a note to Lady Brockenhurst from Maria.  She tells Templemore that Maria makes a good companion.  When Anne arrives she wants Maria to leave but she refuses so she changes her mind too.  However Lady Brockenhurst insists she leaves and will have her escorted out.  Maria is in dire straits as she doesn't want to marry John and her mother is planning the wedding and has made an announcement in The Times, which everyone has read.  Later Lady Brockenhurst decides that they should break the news to Charles and to society and he will be accepted and have a better life.  Which Anne will have to discuss with James first.  And Sophia will be forgotten conveniently.  So how can they keep his mother from Charles that would be cruel. 

This followed on from Oliver (Richard Goulding) travelling to Manchester and going to the cotton mill to get info on Charles and a loom worker notices his interest when he asks if the workers are all happy here.  What kind of a cotton mill was that, no dust flying around.  Heck they're dirtier than that.  Think North and South and all the ailments workers suffered from by breathing it all in.  Oliver meets with another two men who tell him that Charles was underhand in the way he purchased the mill from a widow, who broke down and was coerced into selling.  Especially since they were going to buy it.  Obviously they're making this up and Oliver has them write letters so he can show his father.

When Oliver returns James isn't impressed by this and makes his own inquiries.  He asks Charles who doesn't deny anything and he later tells Maria that he didn't want to get in between a father and son and make things worse for them.  She doesn't believe he is capable of such behaviour and neither does Anne and Lady Brockenhurst.  He meets Maria at the bookstore as she sends him a note telling him her mother is sending her to Northumberland so she can make plans for the wedding in December.  Maria hates the very thought of this and everyone knows how much Charles loves Maria and approve of the match.  Anne also tells James about Lady Brockenhurst's idea to reveal Charles's true identity.  That would mean they could never see their grandson again, which is unbearable for them.  Oliver and James argue at the club and he renounces any association with his father with everyone listening to him.  Also Susan (Alice Eve) is piqued and doesn't eat breakfast.  Telling Anne she doesn't know why Oliver has gone to Manchester, again would've thought that would've been apparent.  But still no one got the note it seems.

Anne questions after she receives a note from Jane (Rebecca Callard) Sophia's maid telling her that Ellis (Saskia Reeves) was asking about Charles and she isn't too pleased about that.  As well as questioning her about the fan and why she didn't come to her.  She replies she misplaced it and thought Anne had left it behind and was asking about the hair style for her.  Which Anne states she would've recalled but she tries to make Anne absent minded.  She's far from it but does let ii slide.  Jane has letters from Sophia and other documents which Ellis manages to get from her bag after she sends her on a tour of London.  However she gets Turton to make copies since the actual letters will be missed and they'd know it was her who took them.  She delivers the copies to John but only for him to tell her he wants the originals.  But she's too late as Jane has already shown them to Anne.  Including Sophia's marriage certificate and a letter she kept of hers since she didn't think it her place to burn anything, as Sophia had asked.  John's promise of giving them a £1,00 made her run like the wind!! Ha.

John knows who Charles is now and this puts his inheritance in further jeopardy as he tells this to his father.  As well as discovering who this Captain Brodsworth (Stevee Davies) was.  Surprise, surprise he was an actual clergyman and although he joined the army he could still marry people.  Thus their marriage was legitimate.  So how come Lord Bellasis didn't know this, when he used it just to get his way with Sophia, or did he?  Also Rev Bellasis (James Fleet) begs Lady Brocklehurst for money but she gives him nothing and threatens to change the financial situation straightaway if he asks for any again.

As Maria and Charles show up at Lady Brockenhurst's who is throwing a tea party, attended by Lady Templemore too, she confronts Charles saying they won't be together.  Lady Brockenhurst confides in Maria about who Charles is as long as she doesn't say anything to him yet, but he will be informed soon enough.  SO my only gripe with this ep is how none of them thought to make enquiries of Brodsworth!!  Why would they not find out everything about him, especially since they adopted Charles out to a clergyman too!  Seems some of this was just pieced together last minute, even though it was adapted from the book.  You know those add-ons they do, since they tried to hide everything, why not seek out this Brodsworth to find out what he knows and whether he would spill the beans.

Ghost Adventures 'The Chinatown Poltergeist'

                                                  Ghost Adventures Season 19 Episode 10 The Chinatown Poltergeist ...
Chinatown, off the Las Vegas Strip where a poltergeist was reported at the The Golden Tiki bar.  Artefacts, various shrunken heads, not real and other objects are housed. On 14th January 1995 four masked people came into the bar with menace and shot people.  Three were shot and one was in critical condition.  The bar boasts poltergeist activity where the shooting took place.  When Brandon saw the ashtray move across the table, Zak didn't ask if Brandon, the owner, was just filming or if it happened more than once, cos really who would video an ashtray; unless he was aware of this happening before.  Using the EMF which increases in activity when placed near the ashtray.  The glass was also shattered on the entire table which is shown from the CCTV camera.  However it wasn't that clear when played back.

The booths location is where the robbers shot the people.  The glass was tempered.  A sword is stored there and the machetes removed heads in rituals.  A medicine bag used by shaman is also stored there.  The EMF spikes when he holds it near the bag.  Vinnie Paul passed and his fake shrunken head is there.  (From Pantera and he was at the bar the night before he died.)  Brandon speaks to the shrunken heads when he walks past them after being pushed in the back violently once.  Peter talks about seeing a small girl in the bathroom and he heard a girl laughing and he saw her legs under the door.   Zak unveils his shrunken head at the bar and before the lockdown he is worried about what activity that will cause.  Well I tell ya that shrunken head is not the true size of his ego.  Ha!

Brandon says how something followed him home from here looking like a misty, flowing spectre.  His son started sleepwalking and his wife found him in the hallway.  He said he also saw it at the bar during the interview yesterday.  They speak with Marcia on the phone who was at the table when it smashed.  She felt uncomfortable and the energy changed.  When they are talking to her, something falls to the floor and turns out it's an ashtray.  The Geophone gives off various EMF readings.  Marcia tells them about the flickering lights at her house simultaneously.

During the investiagtion Zak conducts an EVP session.  Nothing is captured.  They hear footsteps on the ceiling where Peter said he heard the same.  As well as catching a black mist.  How come they didn't find anymore information about the shooting from further research.  They hear a whistling sound.  Zak feels something in front of him and then he captures an anomaly from the bar stool heading to the bar.  Aaron uses the spirit box and asks how many spirits are in the bar (yeah of the bottled variety! ha)."A lot of them" could also sound like "eleven."

Aaron: "Who runs this bar"
"He knew it."  Before the male voice comes through a female can be heard under it saying "me."??  Was this in relation to the murders??  Did the owner know about it, knew the masked robbers, did he orchestrate it??
A female spirit comes through on the spirit box and says "talkin' about shit."  I heard it first time!! No really that's what she says!!  A reference to the girl in the loo, well not really.  Or in reference to what they were saying and was coming through.  At that moment Zak feels unbalanced.  Jay doesn't get anything in the bar or the pirate area so didn't get featured much.  The male voice on the recorder sounds like "get the f**king hell out." 

One of the walkie-talkies had been left in the booth and a voice comes through, saying "shoot 'em dead Arlo!"  Or "it's the dead Harlow."
 It's so clear and the seat is also pulled out.  Could someone be trying to hide back there during the shooting fearing for their life??!!  If it was paranormal. When the recorder is played a female voice is heard.  "I come here all the time."  Well I would say the voices had something do with the robbery and shootings at the bar before, when it was the Marker Bar.  But I couldn't find anything about it.  Need a library in Las Vegas for research.
The static device goes off when Aaron asks about the sword.

Belgravia Episode 4

                                             Watch Belgravia Season 1 Episode 4 - Episode 4 Online - Oh! Movies
Another ep which just seemed to be an extension of the last without much really happening.  John (Adam James) just bribing servants for info on Charles (Jack Bardoe) and Turton (Paul Ritter) milking it for all he can get and saying the same to Ellis (Saskia Reeves) even if they have to make things up.  The real stunner was how Anne (Tamsin Greig) didn't get why Ellis went to the Brockehhurst house in search of a fan she'd allegedly lost, when she had the fan with her.  Why would she even trust the servants even if they have been there that long.  It's a wonder the secret was kept so long.  Thought Lady Brockenhurst (Harriet Walter) would've been on the ball with that, but apparently not.  Nope, they head off to Glanville with Oliver (Richard Goulding) Ellis, Turton and Susan (Alice Eve) and still take their problems with them.  Even Oliver still harping on about Charles and why James (Philip Glenister) treats him better than his own son.

Anne even letting it slip to Susan that James knows Charles from before, then quickly adding he knew his father.  Anne thinks Susan would be suited to Glanville and even if she can't bring Speer (Bronagh Gallagher) with her, but instead she could "always get another maid."  Which is what John hears and tells Susan as much.  As predicted Susan is likely pregnant, with Speer saying she should 'get it on' with Oliver quick smart so that no one suspects her affair.  Again Susan trusting Speer when she can get everything she wants from her too via blackmail.  Servants running around betraying their employers for a penny was all too tedious.  As Turton tells John he wants £20 for the info since betraying his master is still "a treasonable offence," even though hanging has been abolished.

Ellis wanting advice on how the maid, Jane (Rebecca Callard) did Lady Brockenhurst's hair at the party as a ruse to try and get her to betray secrets too was a bit stupid on her part.  But Jane cottoned on too late to what she was prying out of her and after Ellis had spoken of knowing Lord Bellasis in Belgium.  Ellis not having seen Charles yet wouldn't have noticed the resemblance of him with Lord Bellasis's portrait painted by Lady Brockenhurst.  Although she has seen Lord Bellasis at the parties.  Let's wait for that penny to drop (whilst she's still getting paid pennies ha!)  Ellis does have notions above her station as I said in ep 1, as she tells the footman she's as good as they are and even any royal.

Maria (Ella Purnell) admits her affection for Charles going sa far as calling him her "lover" and her mother, Lady Templemore (Tara Fitzgerald) is adamant she should marry John as she married her father and they didn't even have a chance to meet.  Maria goes to Charles's office with Lady Brockenhurst and Anne, who invites herself and they chat more about cotton and India.  He wants to get cotton from somewhere that doesn't have slaves as in the US and they both think that's very amiable.  (Though colonization doesn't factor into slavery - that's another story 'ey.)  Anne and Lady Brockenhurst both see Maria as a perfect match for Charles. John pops up too after Susan tells him of this meeting as does Ellis, and doesn't get much out of the trip.  No one is suspicious of how these little things keep happening and just let it continue, with John constantly popping up everywhere.  Especially as they don't have much going on their lives. The Tranchard's still arguing in front of the servants, you'd think there'd be other places for such things, gossip and idle chit chat should be the order of dinner, but nah. 

Lady Templemore finds Maria gave her chaperone the slip and ends up in the park where she sees Charles leaving and asks who he was.  Then Maria putting her foot down and saying she won't marry John and she can't force her to do so.  To which she replies, she'll see what she can do.  What lock her up.  Shades of Sanditon creeping in here.  John's mother telling him where she's hiding what remains of the family silver.  If she doesn't know what a charlatan her son is by now, I don't know what else to say.  You know like father, like son.  Who doesn't get a loan from the loan shark since he won't see a return on his investment for many years and the extortionate interest he charges.  Thus the Rev (James Fleet) gets a little help from his brother the Earl (Tom Wilkinson) though I don't know why he bothered after they attend church and see him giving a sermon on behalf of someone who's been taken ill.  He looked like a laughing stock.  The Rev doesn't tell John about it though.  He's likely going to gamble that money away too.

Ghost Adventures 21.5 "Haunted Hollow Forest"

                                                  ghostadventures hashtag on Twitter
Another one of those creepy Hallowe'en attractions in West Haven, Utah where their investigation took them more to the forest surrounding the attraction than the attraction itself, though they did investigate the church, leaving Aaron there and the towering building and cave with Jay.  Travis told Zak about the grey man, a tall figure.  The land was part of the Ute tribe where untold horrors were carried out, including the Shaman cursing people.  As well as all the energy from the river.  The land being affected by tractors and digging as well after having to put in a levy due to flooding.  Vincent told him about finding little bags from rituals and being affected by whatever is on the land.  He had red marks on his neck after investigating as if something had put its hands around his neck.  They also encountered the grey man, 7-8' tall.  Leaving them unable to move.

Zak asks Billy to move the bag, why didn't he do it himself.  Billy refuses to touch it and then touches it suddenly and then he tries to hand it to Aaron and put it on him.  He then runs away with it and puts it in a part of the forest near the river where they come across it again during the night.  Why not just use a stick and just bury it, instead of leaving it lying around.  Later Billy and Aaron investigate the land and take Polaroids.  Scott, security, tells them of how people were paralyzed.  Zak gives an exposition on land and nature.  Aaron is also affected as he is "zoned out."  The Polaroid shows three light anomalies or energy and Zak goes into his trinity stuff again.  None of the markings appeared in any of the photos.  The one on the right looks like a cloaked figure with a head and raised arms.  And if you squint you may possibly make out a female head, but maybe that'd be too much.
Had the feeling could they be some sort of spirits surrounding Billy from his earlier encounter, what about guardian angels.  Or some spirits from the Ute tribe.  As they don't appear to be menacing, even if there are three??

 
During the investigation, Aaron's ear is affected as Zak says the same happened to him earlier on when interviewing Travis, his hearing was lost in his left ear.  Where have we seen weird forests before and activity with lights, Hoia Baciu in Romania in the Transylvania Special.  As well as the Golden Ghost Town investigation.  That's the one where Zak had that creepy grin on his face that didn't even look like him! (See below).

Jay investigates the attraction where a woman named Veronica has been seen.  He hears knocking and catches a light anomaly.  At 26.09 sounds like a woman screaming or wailing, unless it's wind.  When he investigates the forest, he too films lights which can be debunked as unusual activity since there are no lights in the middle of the forest.  Zak catches thermal anomaly in the woods and hear noises, Aaron hears drums, I didn't.  When they investigate an old structure Zak feels rushed upon from behind and catches heat anomaly on the camera.  SO it came from behind him and instead of running forward, he runs backwards to where it would have been!  One sound described as a pig.  Aaron feels touched.  In the chapel Aaron is left alone and freaks out as he hears walking.

The EVPs first voice: "I'm with you"
Second voice: "can you do that??"  Also sounds like a muffled breath afterwards.  But to catch the voices of children.  Could they be residual?? and I'm not going to go into the 'are they even children' question.

Zak zones out too where Aaron felt the same.  Jay shows him the same lights he captured.  When they play the voices at the end it sounds like the second voice is an echo of the first and something like "I was here..."  Which is completely different to what I said it was from earlier on.  Maybe I'm getting zoned out too! But I'm going with this now!  Ha.

Billy on Twitter said he wanted to move the bag but when he grabbed it he felt aggressive thoughts and wanted it gone completely.
