490 00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:45,000 I need something stronger than coffee to say that. 491 00:23:45,000 --> 00:23:48,000 I would need something stronger than coffee to celebrate with. 492 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:54,000 Unfortunately, happy hour is gonna have to wait. 493 00:23:54,000 --> 00:23:55,000 Hi, Jeff. 494 00:23:55,000 --> 00:23:56,000 Hey there. 495 00:23:56,000 --> 00:23:58,000 Hello, how are you? 496 00:23:58,000 --> 00:24:01,000 I've arranged a call with local firefighter Jeff Gerhart, 497 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:04,000 who has responded to emergency calls all over the county. 498 00:24:04,000 --> 00:24:07,000 Not only is he familiar with the area, local folklore, 499 00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:10,000 and native wildlife, he recently had his own encounter 500 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:14,000 with unexplained screams coming from the hills above Nevada City. 501 00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:17,000 Well, we know this area definitely has its own reputation 502 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:21,000 and stories relating to ghosts and things like that. 503 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,000 We understand you heard a kind of ghostly noise. 504 00:24:25,000 --> 00:24:27,000 Can you tell us about this? 505 00:24:27,000 --> 00:24:30,000 Well, it had to be about probably nine o'clock or so at night. 506 00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:35,000 A sun just setting and just heard this really intense scream 507 00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:36,000 up the gulch here. 508 00:24:36,000 --> 00:24:41,000 One of the most incredible sounds I've ever heard, just unearthly. 509 00:24:42,000 --> 00:24:45,000 When you heard it, did you try to go check and see what made the noise? 510 00:24:45,000 --> 00:24:47,000 No, I was a little concerned. 511 00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,000 I didn't want to really get too close to it. 512 00:24:50,000 --> 00:24:55,000 I have several friends that are loggers that have heard the sound 513 00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:57,000 in the hills around here. 514 00:24:57,000 --> 00:25:00,000 We also heard a crazy scream just last night. 515 00:25:00,000 --> 00:25:02,000 In that area, what's up in those hills? 516 00:25:02,000 --> 00:25:04,000 Are there abandoned mines or caves? 517 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,000 There are a lot of different mine shafts on the way up the gulch. 518 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:10,000 These are all old structures from the 1800s? 519 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,000 Yes, they're all over those hills. 520 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:14,000 Well, Jeff, we're going to do some investigating, 521 00:25:14,000 --> 00:25:17,000 and if we find out what's making that noise, we'll let you know. 522 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:20,000 Please do, and please be careful out there, 523 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,000 because I don't want to have to come looking for you guys to get in trouble. 524 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:27,000 To maximize our efforts, Jess and I are splitting up, 525 00:25:27,000 --> 00:25:31,000 on following up on the mysterious sounds coming from these hills. 526 00:25:32,000 --> 00:25:35,000 After researching the area and the direction we heard the noise, 527 00:25:35,000 --> 00:25:39,000 I discovered that there was once a gold and silver mine directly above town 528 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:42,000 called the U.S. Grant Mine, named after our 18th president, 529 00:25:42,000 --> 00:25:45,000 which dates back to George Ives-Era. 530 00:25:45,000 --> 00:25:47,000 Much faster than walking. 531 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:52,000 Mines in the area have a long history of tragic accidents and deaths. 532 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,000 With its close proximity to town, 533 00:25:54,000 --> 00:25:58,000 could the grant mine be the source of the blood-curdling screams that Jess and I, 534 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,000 and so many locals, have heard for over a century? 535 00:26:02,000 --> 00:26:06,000 To get there, I'm riding to over 6,000 feet in elevation, 536 00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:09,000 where I've arranged to meet up with the mine's caretaker. 537 00:26:09,000 --> 00:26:11,000 Take a look at that. 538 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:14,000 Old mining equipment from the era of George Ives. 539 00:26:16,000 --> 00:26:19,000 Meanwhile, I'm focusing on George Ives' lost gravesite, 540 00:26:19,000 --> 00:26:23,000 which is at the center of Nevada City's paranormal legend. 541 00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,000 It's said he cursed the town after he was hanged for the murder of Nicholas Tibbolt, 542 00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:30,000 and dumped in a shallow grave. 543 00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:32,000 If I can pinpoint its location, 544 00:26:32,000 --> 00:26:35,000 it may increase my chances of making contact with him, 545 00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:38,000 and maybe help put his spirit to rest. 546 00:26:38,000 --> 00:26:41,000 But without being able to exhume the graves here, 547 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:44,000 I'll need to find another way to see underground. 548 00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:49,000 So I'm headed back to the cemetery to meet with Tom Rust and Crystal Aligria, 549 00:26:49,000 --> 00:26:55,000 two archaeologists who have been actively hunting for George Ives with technology that can see the unseen. 550 00:26:57,000 --> 00:27:00,000 So you guys are on the hunt for George Ives. 551 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:04,000 We are. Well, we've been trying to find out where the unmarked graves are. 552 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:07,000 What is kind of the process to try and find George Ives? 553 00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:10,000 Our first step was to survey the entire cemetery, 554 00:27:10,000 --> 00:27:14,000 so we came up with this map here where we've used a magnetometer 555 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:18,000 to measure the Earth's magnetic field as well as any ferrous objects underneath. 556 00:27:18,000 --> 00:27:21,000 But that tells us where there's magnetic anomalies. 557 00:27:21,000 --> 00:27:23,000 That might indicate where there are graves. 558 00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:28,000 We were searching kind of in the far end of the old section of the cemetery. 559 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,000 You know, so am I right? Am I wrong? 560 00:27:30,000 --> 00:27:32,000 We've done a lot of oral history research, 561 00:27:32,000 --> 00:27:37,000 and we heard George Ives was buried on the east side of the cemetery, outside the fence. 562 00:27:37,000 --> 00:27:38,000 Okay. 563 00:27:38,000 --> 00:27:42,000 We do have documentation that says he was buried next to Nicholas de Vault. 564 00:27:42,000 --> 00:27:45,000 They buried him next to the victim? 565 00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:47,000 I feel like that is a poor choice. 566 00:27:47,000 --> 00:27:48,000 Yes, exactly. 567 00:27:48,000 --> 00:27:51,000 Oh my gosh, you're kidding me. That's terrible. 568 00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:53,000 Definitely a mark of disrespect. 569 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,000 Maybe it's so he could torment Ives in the afterlife. 570 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:57,000 He can dance on Ives' grave. 571 00:27:57,000 --> 00:28:02,000 They oftentimes bury criminals in Erdie Wells north-south instead of east-west. 572 00:28:02,000 --> 00:28:08,000 So when Jesus comes on the second coming, you can have the sun shine on you and you can meet him. 573 00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:09,000 Ah. 574 00:28:09,000 --> 00:28:13,000 And Ives, they would have put him north-south so they don't get that same privilege. 575 00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:16,000 I had no idea about that. That is twisted. 576 00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:22,000 If Ives was buried in a north-south orientation right next to de Vault, who was buried east-west, 577 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:26,000 then that gives us a very distinct signature to look for. 578 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:29,000 Would they have been in a T-formation then? 579 00:28:29,000 --> 00:28:30,000 We can only speculate. 580 00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:39,000 We're hoping that that formation will give us some marker that we can see using our equipment. 581 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:46,000 Ives and de Vault were buried next to each other in a T-formation just outside the cemetery gates. 582 00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:52,000 So to scan for that, we're using ground penetrating radar, or GPR, to look below the earth. 583 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:59,000 GPR sends high-frequency radio waves to detect the depth and location of objects buried underground. 584 00:28:59,000 --> 00:29:05,000 So hopefully we'll get lucky and pinpoint where Ives has been hiding all these years. 585 00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:11,000 As Jess tries to track down the final resting spot of Nevada City's most notorious villain, 586 00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:17,000 Phil still has a long way to go before reaching the mine, and this back country is no easy going. 587 00:29:17,000 --> 00:29:19,100 The 588 00:29:19,100 --> 00:29:22,000 The 589 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,000 The 590 00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:28,000 The 591 00:29:28,000 --> 00:29:31,000 Pull on soap to the bone. 592 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,000 The 593 00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:46,000 After a few hours on horseback and at about 6,000 feet in elevation, I finally reach my destination, the U.S. grant line. 594 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:51,000 Entrance is right up here. 595 00:29:51,000 --> 00:29:57,000 I'm meeting with Philly Mason, the mine's caretaker, who has worked underground in this area for decades. 596 00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:59,000 Hey there. Thank you. 597 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:03,000 And he's also heard his fair share of strange sounds coming from this mine. 598 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:04,000 How long has it been here? 599 00:30:04,000 --> 00:30:08,000 1864, 1868. 600 00:30:08,000 --> 00:30:10,000 So is this still an active mine? 601 00:30:10,000 --> 00:30:13,000 Not an active mine as of now. 602 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:17,000 Well, it is officially cold enough that I can see my breath in here. Is it always this cold? 603 00:30:17,000 --> 00:30:20,000 Yes, it stays this temperature year round. 604 00:30:20,000 --> 00:30:23,000 We're going to be getting some water here pretty soon. 605 00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,000 Yes, that's why you gave me the helmet. 606 00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:27,000 Not right. 607 00:30:29,000 --> 00:30:35,000 Before we go further, Philly insists I gear up since this mine floods easily. 608 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:40,000 I've heard stories. People report hearing screams coming from this area. 609 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:41,000 What's your take on that? 610 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:49,000 It's true. You'll hear things all the time. I ignore them myself. 611 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:56,000 I don't know if it's Mother Earth making that noise or people that were in here in the past. 612 00:30:56,000 --> 00:31:02,000 Philly confirms that the strange noises we heard in town often emanate from within the old mine tunnels. 613 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:06,000 So the question is, what or who could be lurking inside? 614 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:09,000 Take a look at this right here. Do you recognize this, Scott? 615 00:31:09,000 --> 00:31:11,000 Yes, those are pack rats. 616 00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:12,000 Pack rats? How big are they? 617 00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:17,000 They get pretty big. They get up to probably two foot long with the tail. 618 00:31:17,000 --> 00:31:19,000 Wow. 619 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:26,000 What I'm wondering here is if a cave like this is full of prey, if there could be predators. 620 00:31:26,000 --> 00:31:28,000 Yes, I've seen mountain lion tracks. 621 00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:32,000 So there's a chance that I could go in there and come face to face with something like a mountain lion? 622 00:31:32,000 --> 00:31:35,000 Yes, that is a very strong possibility. 623 00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:38,000 Fantastic. Alright, let's get started then. 624 00:31:38,000 --> 00:31:45,000 My plan is to follow the tunnel deep into the mountain looking for additional animal tracks and any other evidence I can find. 625 00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:50,000 And we're going to give you this in case you have trouble, you call me. 626 00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:56,000 We've just had recent storms. Water will rise here. Underground can happen pretty fast. 627 00:31:56,000 --> 00:32:01,000 So mountain lions, floods, giant rats. Perfect cave to explore. 628 00:32:01,000 --> 00:32:03,000 Good luck. 629 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:11,000 So clearly some of the supporting structures in here have collapsed over time. 630 00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:14,000 Always a good sign. 631 00:32:14,000 --> 00:32:19,000 It actually smells like dynamite powder right here. 632 00:32:22,000 --> 00:32:24,000 Check this out. 633 00:32:26,000 --> 00:32:29,000 That is dynamite. 634 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:38,000 As I get deeper in, look, look at this. 635 00:32:38,000 --> 00:32:42,000 Dead pack rat. Scat of a bigger animal here. 636 00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,000 There's evidence of animal activity. 637 00:32:44,000 --> 00:32:47,000 We're seeing these rounded edges right here and it's not tapered and tight. 638 00:32:47,000 --> 00:32:51,000 That to me says cat. 639 00:32:51,000 --> 00:32:54,000 Look at that, look at that. 640 00:32:54,000 --> 00:33:00,000 Come on. We got hairs. We got hairs. 641 00:33:00,000 --> 00:33:04,000 Yes. As a biologist, this is gold for me. 642 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:08,000 Not the kind of most people who are looking for in here, but this is good. 643 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:13,000 The hair and scat samples will offer insight into what animals are living and hunting here. 644 00:33:13,000 --> 00:33:19,000 After searching a series of side chefs, I eventually turn around and head back toward the mines entrance. 645 00:33:19,000 --> 00:33:23,000 But it soon becomes clear that I'm in a different tunnel. 646 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:26,000 I thought this is where we came from. 647 00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:29,000 There's a lot of water there now. 648 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:32,000 I want us getting deep here. 649 00:33:34,000 --> 00:33:36,000 Philly, you copy? 650 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:38,000 Philly, you copy? 651 00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:41,000 Philly, you copy? 652 00:33:42,000 --> 00:33:44,000 Oh boy. 653 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,000 I want us getting deep here. 654 00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:59,000 Philly, you copy? 655 00:34:00,000 --> 00:34:02,000 Oh boy. 656 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,000 We're going to have to find another way out. 657 00:34:08,000 --> 00:34:10,000 Philly, you copy? 658 00:34:10,000 --> 00:34:12,000 Yes. 659 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:14,000 Where are you at? 660 00:34:14,000 --> 00:34:20,000 So we tried making our way back to where you are and it's completely flooded. 661 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:21,000 Okay, listen to me. 662 00:34:21,000 --> 00:34:25,000 Follow your tracks then.

856 00:45:49,000 --> 00:45:51,000 It could be strong enough to do a lot of things. 857 00:45:51,000 --> 00:45:54,000 Earthquakes can release electromagnetic energy. 858 00:45:54,000 --> 00:45:58,000 So maybe that could explain why the REM pods just kept going up. 859 00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,000 That's the problem. 860 00:46:00,000 --> 00:46:07,000 I still don't understand how a microquake would have still been strong enough to ring that bell without us feeling it. 861 00:46:07,000 --> 00:46:09,000 So where does that leave us? 862 00:46:12,000 --> 00:46:18,000 Ghost stories are built on the premise of unfinished business, and the last words of George Ives are, 863 00:46:18,000 --> 00:46:25,000 Tell my mother I died an innocent man, certainly leave a haunting legacy in Nevada City. 864 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:32,000 But can one tortured criminal truly bring a curse upon a town, and some at the spirits of others who died there? 865 00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:39,000 The evidence my team gathered would suggest to believers that the death of George Ives was a very serious and unending tragedy. 866 00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:48,000 The saloon door opening on its own, and the infrared camera falling to the ground, right where George Ives is rumored to haunt. 867 00:46:48,000 --> 00:46:55,000 Then there's the seemingly unexplainable force opening and slamming doors in the yellow house. 868 00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:02,000 Make no mistake, this once mighty boom town was a very serious and unambiguous tragedy. 869 00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:09,000 File Att reflection 870 00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:39,000 And it sounds, well, an awful lot like the human screams that have been reported here. 871 00:47:39,000 --> 00:47:47,000 In the end, whether George Ives lives on in Nevada City or just in local legend, both 872 00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:53,000 believers and skeptics will agree. His story has not been forgotten. And if that isn't 873 00:47:53,000 --> 00:47:59,000 communication from beyond the grave, then what is? 874 00:47:59,000 --> 00:48:05,000 For more information on Expedition X, head to Discovery.com slash Expedition X.
