In the 19th century at Lake Eerie, the Dunkirk lighthouse is situated. 17 miles into the night a bi-navigational aid, the relic of the lens was preserved from the original tower. Guided vessels through the lake. The keepers and their family lived in a brick dwelling. Over 133 years there were 19 caretakers and due to the innovations of the 1960's, the lighthouse keepers reign ended. In the late 1800's, Charlie met a tragic end whilst trying to save four children in the waves of the lighthouse. Two children and Charlie died. The waters told of shipwrecks. On 9th August 1841, the ship on Eerie with 343 people was on fire and sank near Buffalo harbour. One of the most fatal incidences in Lake Eerie's history. In 1984 the Coastguard passed on ownership of the Dunkirk lighthouse and to the Veterans Park Museum were now the owners. Museum staff tell of a shadowy figure that moves through the lighthouse, footsteps and a young boy in period attire. Thought it's a child from the steamship disaster. Tugging at visitors and moving objects. Military relics of World War 1 and 2 as well as Korean wars. Nick and Tessa bring sons, Luciano, 1 and Gian, 8 in the lighthouse. Their approach is about providing a conduit to the spirits to connect with the energetic youths.
The Burned Over District and the spiritualist movement is relevant in the area. Many people have come here, some of them being spiritualists and psychic mediums. The lighthouse falls into line. Lake Eerie historically many shipwrecks happened here. Lights over the Lake due to people having passed or UFO activity and Native American spirit lights seen. The edge of Lake so water helps and serves as energy. Shadow figures, noises from places which should be quiet. Experiments have led to manifestation of activity. Things being moved or moving. The air feels heavy. Dick Lawson said to the caretaker that the American Legion people were visiting the town. One of the dining room windows and felt a presence push on him. He said to Charlie that the commanders will be here and he'll leave and won't come back until May. Charlie wanted to know what he was doing. Before the city called they needed to turn the water on. In the basement near the door and he heard "get out." One lighthouse keeper died in his sleep overnight here.
Tessa sees a woman on the property. She feels as its near the water it will cause plenty of activity. She hears children in her mind. She saw a young boy drowning when she was driving here. She picks up on a man but he isn't connected to the house and that he would've drowned. The man feels unsettled and he passed quickly. He comes back here as his life was taken so early. The children enjoy being near the water and sees a ship and someone has an aggressive nature. Like a ghost ship at the shore and a man jumping off. He came here to attack and be aggressive here. Scaring the other spirits to go into hiding. The woman is everywhere at the top of the house a lot.
Investigating with Gian and Luciano using their equipment. "Information" comes through. "Vision, push..." Gian feels cold. Tessa asks how many children are here, "7/8" comes through. "People." "Gian" comes through. "Yeah" comes through when Nick asks if it sees the light source. Tessa asks if there's anyone from the military. "Stand back" is heard. Tessa says something in German comes through, I didn't hear it. Gian says he feels more people are here. Luciano sees someone on the stairs and hits Nick in the face by accident. Nick wants to enhance the environment.
Tessa says there's a difference in the environment after the children had arrived and the energy shifted. The children are more of a bright light to them and attracted many souls. She calls having the children here as a "lighthouse" attracting the souls they're so pure. She says a man came in. He's pacing and frantically looking for the children. Nick asks if it's Charlie? A knocking is heard. They hear walking upstairs. A "yes I am" comes through when they ask if they're looking for the children. Outside they ask if the woman can speak to them. Footsteps are heard. "Breathe" comes through. A woman's voice. "Me" when they ask who's in there with them. A lot of history and different layers of history. The children triggered something from the past and they're experiencing that with them in this reality now. Tessa picks up something about timing. Nick asks if he can pick up more now they're familiar with him. She thinks the children will come in here and Charlie wants to communicate.
Someone screams when Nick comes to the bottom of the stairs. They felt like Dave when the people surrounded him. "Dave" comes through. Nick uses the recorder. I hear "I'm dead" when Nick asks what he wants to tell them. Nick asks if he sees him, it says "Stairs." Footsteps above them. Uses different equipment to contact spiritual entities. The equipment goes off near him. The radio EMF fluctuates so someone is there, they're picking up contact. They hear something fall in the basement and phantom footsteps. The devices go off upstairs, leading them away and then to somewhere else when they get there. "I'm here" is on the recorder. The children enhanced the energy with the spirits and giving them a voice to continue to tell their story.
