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?
