1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000
On this edition of Sightings, a frightening entity leaves a bloody trail.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:06,500
Sally, stop it!

3
00:00:06,500 --> 00:00:08,800
On tape, it's a stunning paranormal event.

4
00:00:08,800 --> 00:00:10,700
She scares and living daylight to me.

5
00:00:10,700 --> 00:00:15,000
Then, from America's UFO hotspot, evidence of an extraterrestrial invasion.

6
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:21,000
We've seen an extraordinary increase in large-scale contact events.

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:25,500
And this man's gift is haunted by the faces of death.

8
00:00:25,500 --> 00:00:30,500
I bring life to death through my artistic abilities.

9
00:00:55,500 --> 00:01:05,500
Welcome to Sightings. I'm Tim White.

10
00:01:05,500 --> 00:01:07,500
A ghostly presence on videotape.

11
00:01:07,500 --> 00:01:11,500
It's the one piece of hard evidence that's eluded our ghost investigations.

12
00:01:11,500 --> 00:01:13,500
Until now.

13
00:01:13,500 --> 00:01:16,500
When sightings received a call from a beleaguered family in the Midwest,

14
00:01:16,500 --> 00:01:18,500
our team went to investigate.

15
00:01:18,500 --> 00:01:23,500
What they found was haunting activity unlike anything this sightings crew had ever seen.

16
00:01:23,500 --> 00:01:30,500
The result was hours of bizarre ghostly activity captured for the first time on videotape.

17
00:01:30,500 --> 00:01:41,500
It's happening here, somewhere in America's heartland.

18
00:01:41,500 --> 00:01:45,500
The family has asked that we not say exactly where they live.

19
00:01:45,500 --> 00:01:50,500
But it's a town like any other where people work, raise a family, and are laid to rest.

20
00:01:50,500 --> 00:01:53,500
There, however, the similarity ends.

21
00:01:53,500 --> 00:02:00,500
We were told at least one soul here is not at rest, and that her spirit is trapped inside this house.

22
00:02:00,500 --> 00:02:07,500
Spirit, ghost, entity. It has many names and many ways of making its presence known.

23
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:11,500
The family here fears ridicule and persecution.

24
00:02:11,500 --> 00:02:19,500
They've asked us not to use their real names, so we'll refer to them as Pamela, Jeff, and their infant son, Donnie.

25
00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:27,500
The first signs of something out of the ordinary began when the young couple moved into this 128-year-old house in January of 1993.

26
00:02:27,500 --> 00:02:35,500
At first, the haunting activity was subtle and only seemed to be occurring in one small bedroom at the top of the stairs.

27
00:02:35,500 --> 00:02:39,500
Pamela and Jeff had a weird, indefinable feeling that something wasn't quite right.

28
00:02:39,500 --> 00:02:46,500
Their usually docile dog started feeling it too. She would whimper and cry anytime she came near that room.

29
00:02:47,500 --> 00:02:52,500
They now feel the persistent barking was a warning they did not heed.

30
00:02:52,500 --> 00:02:58,500
As these home videos show after the birth of their son, Donnie, the bedroom was converted into a nursery.

31
00:02:58,500 --> 00:03:01,500
It was here that an entity began to show itself.

32
00:03:01,500 --> 00:03:07,500
Pictures of newborn Donnie were marred by strange blocks of free-floating light and shadow.

33
00:03:07,500 --> 00:03:12,500
It happened on roll after roll of film and with two different cameras.

34
00:03:13,500 --> 00:03:21,500
Even more bizarre was the discovery, when this photo was enlarged, that the crayon on the tablet seems to be held in space by an invisible hand.

35
00:03:21,500 --> 00:03:26,500
We tried to recreate this photo with wires, pins, and other tricks. We could not.

36
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:34,500
Through a friend, Pamela contacted psychic Barbara Conner, who believes she can communicate with entities from the past.

37
00:03:35,500 --> 00:03:37,500
I was thinking it was a little crowded.

38
00:03:37,500 --> 00:03:41,500
Yeah, she doesn't like it. She says, too many people are in here. Get out.

39
00:03:41,500 --> 00:03:47,500
Within a few minutes of her arrival, Barbara began to communicate with what she felt was the spirit of a child.

40
00:03:47,500 --> 00:03:53,500
She said the spirit was that of a little girl named Sally, and that she was there to protect the baby Donnie.

41
00:03:53,500 --> 00:04:00,500
Barbara believes that the blurs and streaks in dozens of family photographs are actually a physical manifestation of Sally.

42
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:04,500
We wanted Edson Williams, a trick photography expert, to give us his opinion.

43
00:04:04,500 --> 00:04:15,500
Sightings obtained the original negatives and photos, and with the family's approval, had them analyzed to determine if anything in the camera or in the film processing could account for the bizarre images.

44
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:20,500
One photo that really caught my attention was the Christmas photos.

45
00:04:20,500 --> 00:04:29,500
The highlights that ran through the image, their localizer, not throughout the image, or in very small regions, and they're running at different angles.

46
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:35,500
Initially, I tried to recreate this simply with a few quick tricks, and unfortunately they did not work for me.

47
00:04:35,500 --> 00:04:37,500
It would be a very difficult shot to recreate.

48
00:04:37,500 --> 00:04:44,500
Another photograph I found very interesting was when I had a small child's toy in a corner with a blue ghosting image around it.

49
00:04:44,500 --> 00:04:52,500
Initially, I thought it possibly cut out a blue gel, which would be a blue plastic, clear plastic, and a wiggle that in front of the camera could recreate it.

50
00:04:52,500 --> 00:04:55,500
But the density differences were too varied.

51
00:04:55,500 --> 00:05:02,500
Photographic evidence is something I always question because my job is to create illusions photographically.

52
00:05:02,500 --> 00:05:08,500
But these several pictures that I was shown are very difficult to explain.

53
00:05:08,500 --> 00:05:20,500
The family believes this is evidence of Sally, the lost spirit of a long dead girl, and like a macabre version of Mother Goose, when Sally is good she's very, very good, and when she's bad she's hearty.

54
00:05:21,500 --> 00:05:25,500
According to Pamela and Jeff, this is Sally's handiwork.

55
00:05:25,500 --> 00:05:29,500
They say a swirling frigid aura announces her presence.

56
00:05:29,500 --> 00:05:37,500
Then Sally leaves welting bloody slashes on Jeff's bare flesh, as documented in these photos, and verified by many eyewitnesses.

57
00:05:37,500 --> 00:05:40,500
So far, Jeff has been the only victim.

58
00:05:40,500 --> 00:05:46,500
When our sightings crew arrived to investigate, the first step was to videotape interviews with Pamela and Jeff.

59
00:05:46,500 --> 00:05:54,500
These interviews were important, but the director had given strict orders to immediately turn the cameras on any strange activity as soon as it occurred.

60
00:05:54,500 --> 00:05:59,500
It was during this first interview session that the entity made its presence known.

61
00:05:59,500 --> 00:06:04,500
Jeff and Donnie watched from just behind the camera as Pamela was being interviewed first.

62
00:06:04,500 --> 00:06:12,500
We had gone over to my in-laws. We had come home. Shortly afterwards we found all the stuffed animals that were in different areas.

63
00:06:12,500 --> 00:06:19,500
As Pamela described a previous encounter with Sally, noise from a backyard chainsaw started to interfere with the videotaping.

64
00:06:19,500 --> 00:06:26,500
When those were closed the cats were downstairs with us. Just nothing natural could happen.

65
00:06:27,500 --> 00:06:31,500
As Pamela waited for the noise to stop, Jeff called out.

66
00:06:31,500 --> 00:06:33,500
Is it going?

67
00:06:35,500 --> 00:06:37,500
She don't like her, but here it is.

68
00:06:37,500 --> 00:06:40,500
Sally, stop it.

69
00:06:42,500 --> 00:06:44,500
What? How did that happen?

70
00:06:44,500 --> 00:06:46,500
You don't know.

71
00:06:46,500 --> 00:06:48,500
Sally?

72
00:06:48,500 --> 00:06:50,500
Walk in there. Walk in there.

73
00:06:50,500 --> 00:06:52,500
And get a towel.

74
00:06:54,500 --> 00:06:56,500
What's going on?

75
00:06:56,500 --> 00:06:58,500
I can't get my sense of it.

76
00:06:58,500 --> 00:07:00,500
She's right here because it is freezing right here.

77
00:07:00,500 --> 00:07:02,500
It is freezing.

78
00:07:02,500 --> 00:07:05,500
All you do is you feel this cold go through you. That's how I just...

79
00:07:05,500 --> 00:07:11,500
Sally? Okay, Sally, we're going to stop until Barbara comes here, okay?

80
00:07:11,500 --> 00:07:14,500
When Barbara comes, she'll talk to you and let you know.

81
00:07:14,500 --> 00:07:17,500
Right here? I can feel it.

82
00:07:17,500 --> 00:07:19,500
We're interviewing. It's hot.

83
00:07:19,500 --> 00:07:24,500
We've turned the air conditioner off for sound purposes, but it is cold right here in this part of the room.

84
00:07:24,500 --> 00:07:27,500
And the air conditioner is off.

85
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:29,500
I just felt...

86
00:07:29,500 --> 00:07:31,500
Look at that. Look at that.

87
00:07:31,500 --> 00:07:33,500
Cold just like frees me over here.

88
00:07:33,500 --> 00:07:36,500
This is the same thing that occurs when she's scratched his face.

89
00:07:36,500 --> 00:07:40,500
Or he's had scratches across his forehead, her...

90
00:07:40,500 --> 00:07:42,500
Down his arm.

91
00:07:42,500 --> 00:07:44,500
She does this when she's upset.

92
00:07:44,500 --> 00:07:46,500
I'm still shaking.

93
00:07:46,500 --> 00:07:48,500
I know, my heart's pounding too.

94
00:07:48,500 --> 00:07:51,500
I'm a little excited. I gotta tell you...

95
00:07:51,500 --> 00:07:53,500
We've had a little excitement this morning.

96
00:07:53,500 --> 00:07:55,500
Oh, really? Already?

97
00:07:55,500 --> 00:07:58,500
The family asked psychic Barbara Conner to join our investigation.

98
00:07:58,500 --> 00:08:02,500
They felt Barbara could communicate with Sally and help calm her down.

99
00:08:02,500 --> 00:08:04,500
Feeling good?

100
00:08:04,500 --> 00:08:06,500
What's this?

101
00:08:06,500 --> 00:08:08,500
That's what she just did.

102
00:08:08,500 --> 00:08:10,500
She just did this?

103
00:08:10,500 --> 00:08:12,500
I feel her now. Yeah, she's here.

104
00:08:12,500 --> 00:08:14,500
Hi, Sally!

105
00:08:14,500 --> 00:08:16,500
What's going on?

106
00:08:16,500 --> 00:08:18,500
Excitement.

107
00:08:18,500 --> 00:08:20,500
She's excited.

108
00:08:20,500 --> 00:08:23,500
It's really cold. Okay, okay, it's okay.

109
00:08:23,500 --> 00:08:25,500
Yeah, it's...

110
00:08:25,500 --> 00:08:27,500
She's excited about all this.

111
00:08:27,500 --> 00:08:29,500
Is she twinking it or is she upset?

112
00:08:29,500 --> 00:08:32,500
She's upset. She's a little upset.

113
00:08:32,500 --> 00:08:34,500
Um...

114
00:08:34,500 --> 00:08:37,500
What's going on here?

115
00:08:37,500 --> 00:08:40,500
She says I like it, but it's scary.

116
00:08:40,500 --> 00:08:42,500
Yeah, well, honey, it's scary for us too.

117
00:08:42,500 --> 00:08:44,500
Yeah, that's what I told her.

118
00:08:44,500 --> 00:08:47,500
I said, no, it's everybody's uptight with this.

119
00:08:47,500 --> 00:08:51,500
She scares the living daylights out of me, to be honest with you.

120
00:08:51,500 --> 00:08:53,500
I'm gonna add this right now.

121
00:08:53,500 --> 00:08:55,500
She's right here with me right now.

122
00:08:55,500 --> 00:08:58,500
I'm feeling something...

123
00:08:58,500 --> 00:09:01,500
really cold shoot around my stomach.

124
00:09:01,500 --> 00:09:03,500
Um...

125
00:09:03,500 --> 00:09:06,500
We asked Jeff to describe what he was feeling.

126
00:09:06,500 --> 00:09:08,500
He looked like he was in pain,

127
00:09:08,500 --> 00:09:10,500
but Jeff didn't respond.

128
00:09:10,500 --> 00:09:13,500
For a moment, he couldn't speak.

129
00:09:15,500 --> 00:09:18,500
I've lost my breath. I'm sorry.

130
00:09:19,500 --> 00:09:23,500
Today in the chair, as you guys were interviewing my wife,

131
00:09:23,500 --> 00:09:26,500
I was sitting in the rocking chair with my son.

132
00:09:26,500 --> 00:09:29,500
He was playing with little toys, and we were tilted a little forward

133
00:09:29,500 --> 00:09:32,500
so we could watch the interview through the doorway.

134
00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:35,500
When it's cold, just shot through my arm,

135
00:09:35,500 --> 00:09:39,500
and it's done it before I knew the feeling.

136
00:09:39,500 --> 00:09:42,500
It's just... I can't explain the cold.

137
00:09:42,500 --> 00:09:45,500
It freezes your bones, everything.

138
00:09:45,500 --> 00:09:47,500
And as I looked towards my arm,

139
00:09:47,500 --> 00:09:52,500
I had four scratches that were bleeding as I looked at them.

140
00:09:52,500 --> 00:09:55,500
And it's really frightening.

141
00:09:55,500 --> 00:09:57,500
Yeah.

142
00:09:58,500 --> 00:10:00,500
I'm sorry.

143
00:10:02,500 --> 00:10:05,500
She's...

144
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:08,500
just went right through my midsection.

145
00:10:10,500 --> 00:10:12,500
I don't...

146
00:10:12,500 --> 00:10:14,500
Oh, my God, look!

147
00:10:14,500 --> 00:10:16,500
Look!

148
00:10:24,500 --> 00:10:26,500
I...

149
00:10:26,500 --> 00:10:28,500
Oh, look, they're forming.

150
00:10:28,500 --> 00:10:31,500
Can't come up with an explanation why she does this.

151
00:10:31,500 --> 00:10:33,500
It's forming right there.

152
00:10:33,500 --> 00:10:36,500
She tends to do this to me because I upset her sometimes.

153
00:10:36,500 --> 00:10:38,500
I...

154
00:10:38,500 --> 00:10:41,500
And she wants to be noticed, I think, today.

155
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:47,500
This family has asked to remain anonymous.

156
00:10:47,500 --> 00:10:50,500
What's happening inside their house is so bizarre,

157
00:10:50,500 --> 00:10:53,500
they don't want to become just another media event.

158
00:10:53,500 --> 00:10:56,500
And the reason our investigation continues.

159
00:10:56,500 --> 00:10:58,500
Coming up next on Sightings.

160
00:10:58,500 --> 00:11:02,500
And this is, like, the most profound thing I've ever seen in all parapsychology.

161
00:11:02,500 --> 00:11:05,500
This is fact, and you have it on tape.

162
00:11:10,500 --> 00:11:12,500
In the years we've been doing this program,

163
00:11:12,500 --> 00:11:17,500
our ghost investigations have been time-consuming and often frustrating.

164
00:11:17,500 --> 00:11:20,500
But the current case in the Midwest is clearly different.

165
00:11:20,500 --> 00:11:25,500
From day one, the crew is experiencing unexplainable haunting phenomena.

166
00:11:25,500 --> 00:11:27,500
And they were getting it on tape.

167
00:11:27,500 --> 00:11:32,500
It's a sensation like, uh, the air conditioning on your automobile.

168
00:11:32,500 --> 00:11:35,500
If you put your hand up right in front of the vent, you feel the air blowing.

169
00:11:35,500 --> 00:11:36,500
Real fresh.

170
00:11:36,500 --> 00:11:39,500
Real fresh, but if you move your hand away from the vent, it goes away.

171
00:11:39,500 --> 00:11:40,500
Oh, boy!

172
00:11:40,500 --> 00:11:41,500
That thing's messing with you.

173
00:11:41,500 --> 00:11:42,500
It is swirling.

174
00:11:42,500 --> 00:11:44,500
Our sightings director is Greg Cook.

175
00:11:44,500 --> 00:11:47,500
He was excited about the presence of strange cold spots

176
00:11:47,500 --> 00:11:50,500
that would come and go without warning or reason.

177
00:11:50,500 --> 00:11:52,500
It is so cold right here.

178
00:11:52,500 --> 00:11:54,500
Oh, this is electrical chargers we're talking about.

179
00:11:54,500 --> 00:11:55,500
Did you feel it?

180
00:11:55,500 --> 00:11:56,500
Did you feel it?

181
00:11:56,500 --> 00:11:59,500
Yeah, it's like, it's like a mile away.

182
00:11:59,500 --> 00:12:00,500
Electrical shock.

183
00:12:00,500 --> 00:12:01,500
Yeah.

184
00:12:01,500 --> 00:12:02,500
Right there.

185
00:12:02,500 --> 00:12:03,500
Oh, my God.

186
00:12:03,500 --> 00:12:04,500
Can you feel it?

187
00:12:04,500 --> 00:12:05,500
Yeah.

188
00:12:05,500 --> 00:12:07,500
Oh, Jesus.

189
00:12:07,500 --> 00:12:08,500
Electrical shock.

190
00:12:08,500 --> 00:12:09,500
Right here.

191
00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:12,500
That is unbelievable.

192
00:12:13,500 --> 00:12:20,500
Paranormal investigator Howard Heim brought in instruments that could measure the cold

193
00:12:20,500 --> 00:12:23,500
and magnetic energy everyone in the house was feeling.

194
00:12:23,500 --> 00:12:28,500
Howard Heim has documented over 100 reported hauntings throughout the world.

195
00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:32,500
Strangely enough, as soon as he arrived, our video camera began to malfunction.

196
00:12:32,500 --> 00:12:38,500
There was break-up, usually a sign that there's been some kind of electrical interference.

197
00:12:43,500 --> 00:12:44,500
Can you feel this?

198
00:12:44,500 --> 00:12:45,500
Come here.

199
00:12:47,500 --> 00:12:48,500
No, I can't.

200
00:12:48,500 --> 00:12:51,500
As soon as you came over, it went this way.

201
00:12:51,500 --> 00:12:52,500
You can feel it?

202
00:12:52,500 --> 00:12:54,500
Well, let's take a few minutes.

203
00:12:54,500 --> 00:12:58,500
It's 77.7 degrees Fahrenheit in here.

204
00:12:58,500 --> 00:13:00,500
This dropped a point.

205
00:13:00,500 --> 00:13:04,500
It did instantly drop a point from 0.7 to 0.6.

206
00:13:04,500 --> 00:13:05,500
Now, wait, right there.

207
00:13:05,500 --> 00:13:07,500
It just dropped another point.

208
00:13:07,500 --> 00:13:09,500
It's dropping again.

209
00:13:09,500 --> 00:13:10,500
0.4.

210
00:13:10,500 --> 00:13:11,500
It dropped again.

211
00:13:11,500 --> 00:13:13,500
It's 0.3 now.

212
00:13:14,500 --> 00:13:16,500
And I gradually dropped a point again.

213
00:13:16,500 --> 00:13:17,500
It's now 0.2.

214
00:13:17,500 --> 00:13:19,500
It keeps getting cooler in this room.

215
00:13:19,500 --> 00:13:21,500
It's like a narrow shaft of cool air.

216
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:22,500
Mm-hmm.

217
00:13:22,500 --> 00:13:23,500
It is.

218
00:13:23,500 --> 00:13:26,500
And my hand is, I can feel it coming down, but his hand's on top of mine.

219
00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:28,500
And if you put yours underneath, you should be able to feel it as well, even though...

220
00:13:28,500 --> 00:13:29,500
Yeah.

221
00:13:29,500 --> 00:13:30,500
Actually feel it slightly cooler.

222
00:13:30,500 --> 00:13:31,500
Feel that?

223
00:13:31,500 --> 00:13:32,500
Yeah.

224
00:13:32,500 --> 00:13:33,500
Blowing around?

225
00:13:33,500 --> 00:13:34,500
Yeah.

226
00:13:34,500 --> 00:13:38,500
Actually feel like a small circumference about four inches in diameter coming straight down.

227
00:13:38,500 --> 00:13:40,500
And our hands are blocking the airflow.

228
00:13:40,500 --> 00:13:41,500
Mm-hmm.

229
00:13:43,500 --> 00:13:44,500
That was interesting.

230
00:13:44,500 --> 00:13:47,500
It was almost like a narrow thing hitting the back of my hand.

231
00:13:47,500 --> 00:13:54,500
The instruments picked up both an increase in electromagnetism and a measurable decrease in room temperature.

232
00:13:54,500 --> 00:13:58,500
But no instrument could explain what happened just a few minutes later in the kitchen.

233
00:13:58,500 --> 00:14:02,500
Pamela was showing Barbara a teddy bear that had been inexplicably burned.

234
00:14:02,500 --> 00:14:07,500
Later in the same spot, Sally seemed to be telling Pamela she was the fire starter.

235
00:14:07,500 --> 00:14:15,500
My husband found this kind of half fresh, half dead flower singed around the edges.

236
00:14:15,500 --> 00:14:21,500
Is it possible that Sally burned the rose in reaction to Pamela's discussion about the teddy bear?

237
00:14:21,500 --> 00:14:25,500
We went back to that earlier moment on our raw field tapes.

238
00:14:25,500 --> 00:14:32,500
The rose was there on the windowsill, but at this point it appeared fully red with undamaged petals.

239
00:14:32,500 --> 00:14:40,500
Who could have burned that rose without anyone seeing it or smelling it in the space of less than five minutes?

240
00:14:40,500 --> 00:14:42,500
It was incredible.

241
00:14:42,500 --> 00:14:50,500
The interior leaves are burnt around the edges with no damage to the overlapping leaves,

242
00:14:50,500 --> 00:14:54,500
as if they were individually burned and then assembled.

243
00:14:54,500 --> 00:14:57,500
That is bizarre.

244
00:14:57,500 --> 00:15:01,500
You can't duplicate this.

245
00:15:01,500 --> 00:15:04,500
This cannot be done here.

246
00:15:10,500 --> 00:15:14,500
Well, let's go see, show me where she lives.

247
00:15:14,500 --> 00:15:16,500
Sorry to speak here.

248
00:15:16,500 --> 00:15:23,500
This used to be just cradle, but we've put it in here as like a gathering for her toys.

249
00:15:23,500 --> 00:15:27,500
Things that she's allowed to play with and not get into trouble for.

250
00:15:27,500 --> 00:15:31,500
In the bedroom that had been the source of so much haunting activity,

251
00:15:31,500 --> 00:15:35,500
electromagnetic field readings were normal at first.

252
00:15:35,500 --> 00:15:38,500
Then Pamela felt that Sally had arrived.

253
00:15:38,500 --> 00:15:41,500
Oh man, look right here.

254
00:15:41,500 --> 00:15:44,500
The magnetometer needle jumped.

255
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:46,500
We're two and a half, now we're at three.

256
00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:49,500
I can actually feel it. It's between my fingers.

257
00:15:49,500 --> 00:15:54,500
It's very light, but it is noticeable.

258
00:15:54,500 --> 00:16:00,500
During our investigation, everyone who entered the house felt an eerie ghostly presence,

259
00:16:00,500 --> 00:16:04,500
but only Jeff claims to have actually seen a manifestation of Sally.

260
00:16:04,500 --> 00:16:11,500
I walked over to the kitchen cabinet, opened the cabinet and got out of glass, poured my orange juice.

261
00:16:11,500 --> 00:16:18,500
Started to take a drink and as I turned around, there was a little girl standing not more than three foot away from me,

262
00:16:18,500 --> 00:16:21,500
just as plain as you are to me now.

263
00:16:22,500 --> 00:16:29,500
Just standing there with this plain look on her face, just looking at me like she was curious about me too.

264
00:16:29,500 --> 00:16:34,500
And I can't explain the feeling I got.

265
00:16:34,500 --> 00:16:40,500
I dropped the glass, the glass shattered, and as I dropped the glass, she was gone just as quick as she was there.

266
00:16:40,500 --> 00:16:42,500
It was just gone.

267
00:16:43,500 --> 00:16:52,500
Sally never materialized for our low light intensity viewing equipment,

268
00:16:52,500 --> 00:16:59,500
but our normal video camera did pick up perhaps the most stunning paranormal event ever recorded on tape.

269
00:16:59,500 --> 00:17:05,500
It came without warning, as our cameras were in the process of recording one final scene.

270
00:17:06,500 --> 00:17:09,500
Sally, can you see through it?

271
00:17:09,500 --> 00:17:12,500
Yeah, and they go up.

272
00:17:12,500 --> 00:17:15,500
Very slowly, yeah.

273
00:17:15,500 --> 00:17:18,500
Same jig. Look, one's starting to bleed.

274
00:17:18,500 --> 00:17:20,500
There's a whole new...

275
00:17:20,500 --> 00:17:23,500
Oh, look at that. Look at that.

276
00:17:23,500 --> 00:17:25,500
Oh my God.

277
00:17:25,500 --> 00:17:29,500
It's this nice dark one where it's bleeding.

278
00:17:29,500 --> 00:17:31,500
Look at that. Look at that.

279
00:17:31,500 --> 00:17:38,500
We trained our cameras on Jeff's torso for nine minutes, the entire duration of the Bazaar event.

280
00:17:38,500 --> 00:17:44,500
What first appeared as scratches eventually grew into long, thick, bleeding welts.

281
00:17:44,500 --> 00:17:47,500
No one had a logical explanation.

282
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:50,500
It just simply appeared.

283
00:17:50,500 --> 00:17:54,500
You lifted your shirt, the same scratches were there.

284
00:17:54,500 --> 00:18:00,500
You put this to your stomach, and all of a sudden blood started oozing out of your mouth.

285
00:18:00,500 --> 00:18:02,500
Blood started oozing out.

286
00:18:02,500 --> 00:18:06,500
And this is like the most profound thing I've ever seen in all parapsychology.

287
00:18:06,500 --> 00:18:11,500
I've seen and felt a few things myself, but it could be suggestion.

288
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:14,500
But this is not suggestion at all.

289
00:18:14,500 --> 00:18:18,500
This is fact, and you have it on tape.

290
00:18:18,500 --> 00:18:24,500
When our crew returned from the Midwest, the excitement in the sightings offices was palpable.

291
00:18:24,500 --> 00:18:30,500
Our videotape has become the object of intense interest for paranormal investigators like Kerry Gaynor.

292
00:18:30,500 --> 00:18:37,500
We ask him to view the tape, making careful examination inside-by-side views of the before and after frames

293
00:18:37,500 --> 00:18:41,500
taken while this bleeding scratch welted up before our camera.

294
00:18:41,500 --> 00:18:47,500
When we return, I'll be joined by field director Greg Cook and world-renowned parapsychologist Kerry Gaynor

295
00:18:47,500 --> 00:18:51,500
as we continue this remarkable investigation.

296
00:18:51,500 --> 00:19:01,500
Coming up next, historic contact with an entity, and later from America's UFO hotspot, unprecedented daylight sightings captured on tape.

297
00:19:05,500 --> 00:19:07,500
Joining me now is sightings director Greg Cook.

298
00:19:07,500 --> 00:19:10,500
Greg supervised the crew on site during our investigation.

299
00:19:10,500 --> 00:19:13,500
Greg, you've earned your stripes in the news business for a long time.

300
00:19:13,500 --> 00:19:14,500
You've worked for 60 minutes in elsewhere.

301
00:19:14,500 --> 00:19:16,500
Has anything like this ever happened before?

302
00:19:16,500 --> 00:19:17,500
Never, Tim.

303
00:19:17,500 --> 00:19:23,500
The frightening thing was that it happened early in the day, at 10 o'clock in the morning, with all of the movie lights on

304
00:19:23,500 --> 00:19:24,500
and all the people through the house.

305
00:19:24,500 --> 00:19:28,500
It wasn't like what you would presume you see when you see a ghost.

306
00:19:28,500 --> 00:19:31,500
It didn't happen late at night under candlelight and that sort of thing.

307
00:19:31,500 --> 00:19:36,500
It was in the confusion of the crew arriving in daylight hours, and everybody felt it.

308
00:19:36,500 --> 00:19:37,500
That was the frightening thing.

309
00:19:37,500 --> 00:19:40,500
You actually felt this thing happen. Everybody in the crew did.

310
00:19:40,500 --> 00:19:46,500
We saw the rose and we saw the marks on the man's body.

311
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:48,500
There was another incident that you didn't have.

312
00:19:48,500 --> 00:19:49,500
I felt the bib.

313
00:19:49,500 --> 00:19:52,500
There was a shot that I thought might be interesting if she were to walk in carrying the baby,

314
00:19:52,500 --> 00:19:54,500
and the baby at the time was sitting in the high chair.

315
00:19:54,500 --> 00:19:59,500
So I said, let's just, you know, move to this area of the room, walk in and we'll begin.

316
00:19:59,500 --> 00:20:05,500
She took off the baby's bib, took 10 steps to the left and walked back in again and went to put the bib on it.

317
00:20:05,500 --> 00:20:06,500
It would not attach.

318
00:20:06,500 --> 00:20:13,500
The plastic cap beneath the bib had burned in the 20 seconds it took for her to walk away from the bib.

319
00:20:13,500 --> 00:20:17,500
I immediately smelled it and could smell a sense of charcoal and burning,

320
00:20:17,500 --> 00:20:21,500
but the plastic had melted, but there was no fire damage to the top or bottom of that piece of plastic.

321
00:20:21,500 --> 00:20:23,500
And that occurred right while we were there.

322
00:20:23,500 --> 00:20:26,500
It was sort of a frightening moment. That did occur at night.

323
00:20:26,500 --> 00:20:28,500
I felt a little uneasy about staying there.

324
00:20:28,500 --> 00:20:31,500
You're a skeptical guy.

325
00:20:31,500 --> 00:20:33,500
Couldn't all of this have been faked somehow?

326
00:20:33,500 --> 00:20:34,500
No.

327
00:20:34,500 --> 00:20:38,500
If we'd gone there and perhaps what you saw was cutting and bleeding, you might question how did that happen.

328
00:20:38,500 --> 00:20:45,500
The fact was that everybody who came, film members, other friends of theirs, neighbors who had been there for the time of the taping,

329
00:20:45,500 --> 00:20:47,500
everybody in the room felt the same sensation of cold.

330
00:20:47,500 --> 00:20:57,500
I think there's a lot of interpretation there, but I do know that what I felt and what everybody else in our crew felt was a definite electrical energy.

331
00:20:57,500 --> 00:21:00,500
It moved around the room. You could follow it around the room.

332
00:21:00,500 --> 00:21:04,500
It wasn't something that we just kind of said, well, we thought it was there. It was there.

333
00:21:04,500 --> 00:21:11,500
Well, Greg, since you filed this report, sightings has contacted Parasycologist Kerry Gaynor and asked for his insight.

334
00:21:11,500 --> 00:21:16,500
Mr. Gaynor is best known for his investigations of the now famous Anthony and Poltergeist cases.

335
00:21:16,500 --> 00:21:20,500
Mr. Gaynor, you've had a chance to look at our field video tapes.

336
00:21:20,500 --> 00:21:22,500
What do you think?

337
00:21:22,500 --> 00:21:24,500
Well, I think it's very exciting.

338
00:21:24,500 --> 00:21:32,500
The nice thing for me as a researcher is that the cameraman held the camera on the blood spot from the moment it started to the moment the welds appeared.

339
00:21:32,500 --> 00:21:39,500
He never cut away, so we have about eight or nine minutes of raw footage which I have examined, and it's very interesting. It's very exciting.

340
00:21:39,500 --> 00:21:44,500
I spent a great deal of time trying to determine which cases are worth investigating and which are not, and I think this one is.

341
00:21:44,500 --> 00:21:51,500
What are some of the more common signs of haunting, things that show up here as well as other cases you've looked into?

342
00:21:51,500 --> 00:21:56,500
Well, one of the things I was intrigued by were the bears that were found in the middle of the room.

343
00:21:56,500 --> 00:22:01,500
They went out of the room and they put the bears back. They came back and one bear was found in the middle of the room.

344
00:22:01,500 --> 00:22:02,500
Like poltergeist?

345
00:22:02,500 --> 00:22:07,500
That's right. This suggests a very playful kind of experience, and we come across this a lot.

346
00:22:07,500 --> 00:22:12,500
People take their clothes out. They get up the next morning. They're back in the drawer again. Just playful type phenomena.

347
00:22:12,500 --> 00:22:17,500
Do you think this family is at threat, in danger?

348
00:22:17,500 --> 00:22:21,500
Well, I think there are different types of things going on in this house. I wouldn't want to think...

349
00:22:21,500 --> 00:22:28,500
I wouldn't think there's one explanation. The bears appearing in the middle of the room is a playful type poltergeist experience,

350
00:22:28,500 --> 00:22:34,500
but the scratches on the man's stomach and his arm and according to his testimony, he was yanked out of his bed.

351
00:22:34,500 --> 00:22:39,500
Those are pretty terrifying experiences, and yes, I'm a little concerned about that.

352
00:22:39,500 --> 00:22:42,500
We'll continue to look into it. Parapsychologist Kerry Gainer, thanks for joining us.

353
00:22:42,500 --> 00:22:43,500
Thank you.

354
00:22:43,500 --> 00:22:51,500
And I will be going back to the Midwest along with Greg Cook and our entire investigative team to see what more we can learn about the Heartland Ghost.

355
00:22:51,500 --> 00:22:54,500
We'll bring you our findings as soon as possible.

356
00:22:55,500 --> 00:22:57,500
When sightings continues...

357
00:22:57,500 --> 00:23:04,500
At all costs, preserve the social order. That has always been the stakes. Those are war stakes, okay?

358
00:23:04,500 --> 00:23:10,500
Then, sculpting the faces of death. And later, is this the porthole to a parallel universe?

359
00:23:14,500 --> 00:23:22,500
90% of all reported UFOs are seen after dark. Far rarer and virtually undocumented are daytime sightings.

360
00:23:22,500 --> 00:23:32,500
But now, a rash of daylight UFO sightings is being meticulously documented in one of the world's most famous UFO hotspots, Gulf Breeze, Florida.

361
00:23:35,500 --> 00:23:48,500
Since at least 1947, elements of our government have been absolutely aware that we have non-human, highly advanced intelligence visiting this planet.

362
00:23:48,500 --> 00:23:57,500
If the secret is impossible to keep, then we must find a way to adjust to this extraordinary oddity.

363
00:23:57,500 --> 00:24:07,500
Bottom line is, at all costs, preserve the social order. That has always been the stakes. And of course, those are very high stakes.

364
00:24:07,500 --> 00:24:12,500
Those are war stakes, okay? We're looking at a war here.

365
00:24:12,500 --> 00:24:19,500
They won't go away. The latest Gulf Breeze sightings are adding an ominous new layer to the UFO story.

366
00:24:19,500 --> 00:24:25,500
Sightings has obtained exclusive photographs and videotapes of mysterious craft flying in broad daylight.

367
00:24:25,500 --> 00:24:30,500
This new evidence is among the most significant UFO footage ever recorded.

368
00:24:30,500 --> 00:24:39,500
The photo and video evidence that we've recently seen from Gulf Breeze is far more important than all the previous UFO photo and video evidence combined.

369
00:24:39,500 --> 00:24:46,500
It used to be just another resort town in southern Florida, but Gulf Breeze has changed.

370
00:24:46,500 --> 00:24:53,500
Vacationing families drowned in the areas, tropical waters and white sand beaches aren't the only visitors in the area.

371
00:24:53,500 --> 00:24:59,500
For nearly a decade, the name Gulf Breeze has become synonymous with UFOs.

372
00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:05,500
It's been going on almost continuously since 1987. It is not a flash in the pan situation.

373
00:25:05,500 --> 00:25:14,500
The clusters of sightings over Gulf Breeze are taking on a new look. Rare daylight events have UFO researchers scrambling for an explanation.

374
00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:25,500
We are now are going through a series, it seems, of daylight sightings and the nighttime sightings have almost completely diminished.

375
00:25:25,500 --> 00:25:35,500
90% of all reported or recorded UFO sightings occur at night. Only 10% are seen during daytime hours and are rarely captured on tape or film.

376
00:25:35,500 --> 00:25:41,500
Along with the increase in daylight sightings has been an increase in the number of eyewitness reports.

377
00:25:41,500 --> 00:25:49,500
The people in the community who have said that they've seen UFOs are people like doctors and lawyers and real estate people.

378
00:25:49,500 --> 00:25:56,500
It's just not a bunch of lunatics running around saying that they saw lights in the sky. It's very different.

379
00:25:56,500 --> 00:26:04,500
This is not a movie. It is actual footage of a UFO seen over Gulf Breeze in broad daylight.

380
00:26:04,500 --> 00:26:18,500
The daylight sightings that we've had of the last year have all been authenticated. The photographs, the videos, the witnesses have all proved positive.

381
00:26:18,500 --> 00:26:29,500
Here in Gulf Breeze there are so many sightings and there is so much going on. Either you have to go on with your life or you let it just drive you crazy.

382
00:26:29,500 --> 00:26:32,500
And so I've just chose to go on with my life.

383
00:26:32,500 --> 00:26:40,500
On November 28, 1993, Ed Walters, a successful local contractor, saw bright flashes of light in the afternoon sky.

384
00:26:40,500 --> 00:26:44,500
He grabbed his home video camera and drove toward the lights.

385
00:26:44,500 --> 00:27:00,500
I actually drove down to the public beach, got out of my truck and calmly walked out onto the beach, hoping that I might see these bright flashes once again.

386
00:27:00,500 --> 00:27:03,500
Walking along here towards the west.

387
00:27:04,500 --> 00:27:07,500
I continued to scan around, look around.

388
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:13,500
Handing around here, 360. There's the sand dunes. That's the north.

389
00:27:13,500 --> 00:27:19,500
Oh, jeez. Goodness gracious. Over those dunes right there.

390
00:27:19,500 --> 00:27:25,500
It appeared and flew in from the north, hovered out over the beach, over the shoreline.

391
00:27:26,500 --> 00:27:33,500
And I dashed over to the towards the sand dunes and dropped my knees and started filming it.

392
00:27:33,500 --> 00:27:41,500
This is what Ed Walters captured on videotape. The shaded, disc-shaped object appears to hover overhead, then abruptly disappears.

393
00:27:41,500 --> 00:27:46,500
There she is, right there. Oh my God, just hovering right there.

394
00:27:46,500 --> 00:27:50,500
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, Jesus, when you know it.

395
00:27:51,500 --> 00:28:02,500
Jeff Seino is a video analyst with MUFON, the Mutual UFO Network. Recognized worldwide as an expert in his field, Seino believes Walters' tape is authentic.

396
00:28:02,500 --> 00:28:08,500
Notice particularly when he sees the objects how the oscilloscope shows that the camera was indeed bounced around.

397
00:28:08,500 --> 00:28:20,500
You see a lot of video disturbance there, which is typical of a raw video of a camera that's been bounced around that eliminates editing as a possibility for creating this thing.

398
00:28:23,500 --> 00:28:31,500
Ed Walters is no stranger to UFO documentation. He snapped the first Gulf Breeze UFO photograph in 1987.

399
00:28:31,500 --> 00:28:38,500
He also took this picture, which he believes is a near miss between a UFO and a fighter jet.

400
00:28:38,500 --> 00:28:48,500
And the jet head was continuing on and passed right, looked to me like it was headed right at UFO.

401
00:28:49,500 --> 00:28:58,500
Ed Walters has come under fire from skeptics who do not believe that one man could have seen and documented so many significant UFO events.

402
00:28:58,500 --> 00:29:03,500
But Walters is not bothered by charges that he has a sophisticated hoaxer.

403
00:29:04,500 --> 00:29:12,500
There are some people who just absolutely will not consider the evidence. They will kill the messenger.

404
00:29:12,500 --> 00:29:18,500
Judge me if you will, but the fact is I've videotaped and saw a UFO.

405
00:29:18,500 --> 00:29:21,500
With enough time, money, luck and skill, anything can be faked.

406
00:29:21,500 --> 00:29:30,500
But unless Ed Walters has Steven Spielberg as a brother-in-law to fake this video, two different types of photographs would be extremely difficult for an ordinary man to fake.

407
00:29:30,500 --> 00:29:39,500
Walters isn't the only one to documented daytime sighting. This footage was shot by a Gulf Breeze resident who chooses to remain anonymous.

408
00:29:39,500 --> 00:29:43,500
He gave the tape and his story to local reporter Bland Pugh.

409
00:29:43,500 --> 00:29:53,500
The UFO, as he observed it, came out of the southeast. It moved over his head in incredibly fast speed and disappeared out to the northwest.

410
00:29:53,500 --> 00:30:05,500
This particular sighting in itself was a landmark sighting in that it actually showed the UFO disappearing or leaving as it were.

411
00:30:06,500 --> 00:30:10,500
See it coming in here, it's very indistinct. Here's it moving relatively slowly.

412
00:30:10,500 --> 00:30:19,500
So here's a slowdown of the same video, object hovering there motionless and zips off instantaneously and barely make it out as it zips off to the right.

413
00:30:19,500 --> 00:30:28,500
The object was about three miles away on the left side, got up to about two miles away on the right side, was doing about 4,000 miles an hour.

414
00:30:28,500 --> 00:30:38,500
Still, another documented sighting comes from an eyewitness known only as Philip. The flight pattern is similar to that on the other videotapes and so is the shape of the craft.

415
00:30:38,500 --> 00:30:47,500
The various videos corroborate each other, they corroborate previous witness testimony and so the pieces of the puzzle all fit together.

416
00:30:47,500 --> 00:30:58,500
Military bases in the area may have information about what is flying above southern Florida, but every attempt to obtain comment from the military is not only denied, it is ignored.

417
00:30:58,500 --> 00:31:09,500
It could be that the military is tied into this. I'm not accusing nor am I saying they are covering up, I'm just saying that they have, they've just kept their mouth shut.

418
00:31:09,500 --> 00:31:19,500
I do believe there is a growing pattern of contact which suggests that we are getting closer to actually meeting the neighbors.

419
00:31:19,500 --> 00:31:22,500
Gulf Breeze is part of that pattern.

420
00:31:25,500 --> 00:31:29,500
We will be back with more sightings in just a moment.

421
00:31:30,500 --> 00:31:31,500
Next on Sightings.

422
00:31:31,500 --> 00:31:37,500
The recomposer of the decomposed. And it's not a bad title, he does recompose people.

423
00:31:38,500 --> 00:31:40,500
It comes right from my soul.

424
00:31:44,500 --> 00:31:51,500
Forensic scientists go to great lengths to try and identify the skeletal remains of anonymous victims in our nation's morgues.

425
00:31:51,500 --> 00:31:57,500
One technique involves taking an unidentified skull and building a face on top of it with clay.

426
00:31:57,500 --> 00:32:01,500
The clay is applied according to scientific measurements based on anatomy.

427
00:32:01,500 --> 00:32:07,500
But one of the most successful forensic sculptors doesn't rely on science alone.

428
00:32:08,500 --> 00:32:20,500
Nobody should be dead without a name. I mean, that to me is a disgrace to a society that does nothing about getting these people identified.

429
00:32:21,500 --> 00:32:26,500
These are the Faces of Death, brought to life by sculptor Frank Bender.

430
00:32:26,500 --> 00:32:30,500
I bring life to death through my artistic abilities.

431
00:32:30,500 --> 00:32:35,500
The artist takes anonymous numbered remains and gives them a human face.

432
00:32:35,500 --> 00:32:38,500
But Bender says he does more than recreate flesh.

433
00:32:38,500 --> 00:32:43,500
He tries to capture their souls so they can reach out to a long lost loved one.

434
00:32:44,500 --> 00:32:51,500
It was almost like a spiritual thing. When you look at her, I mean, the face just appeared.

435
00:32:52,500 --> 00:32:58,500
He starts with a nameless, faceless skull. In his mind's eye, a picture starts to form.

436
00:32:58,500 --> 00:33:07,500
Using an artist's intuition, a detective's hunch, and some say a psychic gift, Bender creates a person out of clay and paint.

437
00:33:10,500 --> 00:33:18,500
He calls himself the recomposer of the decomposed. And that's not a bad title, really. He does recompose people.

438
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:23,500
Frank Bender has given sightings a rare opportunity to observe him at work in his studio.

439
00:33:23,500 --> 00:33:30,500
He's trying to help police identify the killer of a five-year-old boy, found dead near a vacant lot in Philadelphia.

440
00:33:30,500 --> 00:33:36,500
The key to this investigation is actually finding out who the child is. And this is where Frank comes in.

441
00:33:37,500 --> 00:33:42,500
Frank Bender's bizarre forensic career began in a morgue in 1976.

442
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:52,500
He was a struggling artist looking to study anatomy. In a moment that changed his life forever, Bender was strangely drawn to one badly decomposed Jane Doe.

443
00:33:52,500 --> 00:33:57,500
We really didn't have any idea what she looked like, and we didn't have a very good clue into who she really was.

444
00:33:57,500 --> 00:34:02,500
I had said to the technician, well, I know what she looks like.

445
00:34:02,500 --> 00:34:09,500
With instinct and intuition as his only guides, Bender attempted to discover the woman from just her bare bones.

446
00:34:09,500 --> 00:34:19,500
It comes right from my soul, right from my heart. It's not to me just an identification thing, not just eyes, nose, and mouth, but a personality.

447
00:34:19,500 --> 00:34:24,500
His bust was photographed and circulated. Within six months, the victim was identified.

448
00:34:24,500 --> 00:34:38,500
There are forensic sculptors working for police departments around the country, but their extensive knowledge of anatomy and the mechanics of physiology lack what Bender brings to the same work, a real sense of who the person was.

449
00:34:39,500 --> 00:34:50,500
It was a bittersweet success. Bender was haunted by the faces of his victims. His own personal art began to change. He calls it his nightmare art.

450
00:34:50,500 --> 00:35:03,500
It's actually more of a torturous process doing this art. It's like the garbage coming out of the experiences of working with these forensic cases.

451
00:35:04,500 --> 00:35:14,500
After Bender's initial success, skeptical officials in Philadelphia started to set up and take notice. His success rate in identifying victims eventually reached 85%.

452
00:35:14,500 --> 00:35:25,500
Interpol and the FBI asked for his help. In one case, he was asked to age John List, a man who had killed his entire family and had been on the run for 23 years.

453
00:35:25,500 --> 00:35:37,500
In a sense, I sort of become the fugitive, feeling what he felt and trying to imagine what it would be like living this lifestyle that he lived.

454
00:35:37,500 --> 00:35:44,500
Bender's bust of an aging John List was broadcast nationwide. List was captured 11 days later.

455
00:35:45,500 --> 00:35:55,500
Bender believes that finding the soul within his subjects is the key to his unprecedented success. And in 1990, one soul called out to him more clearly than the rest.

456
00:35:55,500 --> 00:36:01,500
Rosella Atkinson had disappeared without a trace. No one found her for three years.

457
00:36:01,500 --> 00:36:14,500
It's like you're living on the edge wondering, you know, where is she? Or if something happened to her. And once you find out something happened to her, you're walking around and you're still looking like you don't believe it.

458
00:36:14,500 --> 00:36:20,500
At the same time, Bender was transforming the unidentified skull of a teenage murder victim.

459
00:36:20,500 --> 00:36:32,500
I feel that I could feel some of the feelings that were going through her during her life. When I was working on her, I actually felt trapped.

460
00:36:32,500 --> 00:36:38,500
In a sense, I guess, like looked up myself and said, she's got a like, want a better life than this.

461
00:36:38,500 --> 00:36:49,500
Bender felt a hopefulness within the 18-year-old and instinctively sculpted her face pointing upwards. This was the face Rosella's mother saw at a museum exhibit.

462
00:36:49,500 --> 00:37:02,500
We went in there and we looked and we looked and it became, I don't know, her face all of a sudden I just seen her in it and I realized it was her.

463
00:37:02,500 --> 00:37:12,500
The pose Frank Bender chose was remarkably similar to the pose Rosella struck in her last family portrait. This was how Rosella's mother learned she'd been murdered.

464
00:37:12,500 --> 00:37:24,500
I had a picture of almost the same pose he gave her. It would have to be something spiritual to do that. I mean, people can't just come up with something like that.

465
00:37:24,500 --> 00:37:28,500
You've got to be gifted. I mean, spiritually gifted.

466
00:37:28,500 --> 00:37:31,500
Thank you so much.

467
00:37:31,500 --> 00:37:33,500
Thank you so much.

468
00:37:33,500 --> 00:37:35,500
Continue doing your work.

469
00:37:35,500 --> 00:37:40,500
I felt really good. I felt like my work had served the purpose.

470
00:37:40,500 --> 00:37:44,500
She now had a name and could be buried with dignity.

471
00:37:44,500 --> 00:37:51,500
She's at peace and now we can pick up the pieces and go forward.

472
00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:58,500
Bender has the same hopes for the remains of a young child whose decomposing corpse was found near a vacant lot.

473
00:37:58,500 --> 00:38:04,500
He worked night and day for a week trying to connect with the emotions and personality of the five-year-old victim.

474
00:38:04,500 --> 00:38:12,500
This may be the best way of finding the child's killer. As soon as the bust was completed, Philadelphia police put a photograph of it out on the street.

475
00:38:12,500 --> 00:38:19,500
This here puts a face to our victim. It makes a person out of them rather than just a pile of bones.

476
00:38:19,500 --> 00:38:24,500
We need to identify the child before we can find out who killed him.

477
00:38:24,500 --> 00:38:35,500
Look at this boy's face. Look how warm, tender, loving he was and how many adults would love to have a child like this.

478
00:38:35,500 --> 00:38:40,500
Right now, this is all he is, number.

479
00:38:43,500 --> 00:38:50,500
While Frank Bender waits for someone to come forward, he returns to the disturbing world of his nightmare art.

480
00:38:50,500 --> 00:38:57,500
It's an outlet for the pain and anguish he feels he must absorb in order to put a human face on death.

481
00:39:00,500 --> 00:39:05,500
The last time the Philadelphia morgue had an unidentified child was in the 1950s.

482
00:39:05,500 --> 00:39:12,500
Frank Bender's sculpture is just one of the extraordinary measures authorities have taken to try to put a name to this young murder victim.

483
00:39:12,500 --> 00:39:19,500
If you have any information about this little boy, believed to be five years old at the time of his death in 1994,

484
00:39:19,500 --> 00:39:23,500
please call the Homicide Division of the Philadelphia Police Department.

485
00:39:23,500 --> 00:39:27,500
Police are also seeking the killer of Rosella Atkinson.

486
00:39:27,500 --> 00:39:31,500
If you have any information, the Philadelphia police want to hear from you.

487
00:39:31,500 --> 00:39:39,500
When sightings returns, a black hole represents the most extreme possible warping of space and time.

488
00:39:39,500 --> 00:39:42,500
Is this a porthole to a parallel universe?

489
00:39:42,500 --> 00:39:53,500
If asked about the possibility of alien visitation on this planet, skeptics might argue that logistically it's just impossible.

490
00:39:53,500 --> 00:40:01,500
The universe is so vast that even if life did exist in a distant galaxy, it would take billions of years for them to reach us.

491
00:40:01,500 --> 00:40:06,500
Ufologists, on the other hand, maintain that there must be a cosmic shortcut.

492
00:40:06,500 --> 00:40:10,500
And some suggest that shortcut is through a black hole.

493
00:40:11,500 --> 00:40:18,500
A black hole actually may be the entrance to a tunnel from one universe to another, what they call wormholes,

494
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:22,500
warming through or wriggling your way through from one universe to another.

495
00:40:22,500 --> 00:40:27,500
So it's possible that if we ever do learn how to control and use black holes,

496
00:40:27,500 --> 00:40:34,500
it might be possible for us to move into other universes or into other space-time realms that we can't even imagine today.

497
00:40:34,500 --> 00:40:43,500
The concept of a cosmic gateway, what scientists today call black holes, was first suggested by Einstein as part of his theory of relativity.

498
00:40:43,500 --> 00:40:49,500
He basically said that gravity is the curving of space and time. It's a very hard concept to grasp, very esoteric,

499
00:40:49,500 --> 00:40:53,500
but a very fundamental one because it launched modern cosmology, the discovery,

500
00:40:53,500 --> 00:40:59,500
the study of the evolution of the universe and how bodies interact gravitationally.

501
00:40:59,500 --> 00:41:03,500
Until the Hubble telescope, black holes were just a theory on paper.

502
00:41:03,500 --> 00:41:08,500
Now, many scientists agree that these pictures prove their existence.

503
00:41:08,500 --> 00:41:12,500
But how can these bright images be called black holes?

504
00:41:12,500 --> 00:41:21,500
Black holes tend to accumulate matter around them. They suck matter off a companion star or other material that's in their neighborhood.

505
00:41:21,500 --> 00:41:25,500
And this stuff is kind of going around in a whirlpool before it falls down into the hole.

506
00:41:25,500 --> 00:41:34,500
And the material gets accelerated so to such a high velocity that it gives off radiation that we can see x-rays and gamma rays,

507
00:41:34,500 --> 00:41:36,500
or sometimes even visible radiation.

508
00:41:36,500 --> 00:41:39,500
Where do black holes come from?

509
00:41:39,500 --> 00:41:46,500
A general theory suggests that a collapsing star can become so compressed it virtually punches a hole in the universe.

510
00:41:46,500 --> 00:41:52,500
If this is true, then not only is matter compressed, but so is time.

511
00:41:52,500 --> 00:41:58,500
A black hole represents the most extreme possible warping of space and time.

512
00:41:58,500 --> 00:42:04,500
So the measurement or the observation of time inside and outside the hole are radically different.

513
00:42:04,500 --> 00:42:09,500
A person falling into the hole would experience maybe 10 minutes going by,

514
00:42:09,500 --> 00:42:17,500
while somebody on the outside would see thousands of years or in effect an eternity go by while watching the other person fall in.

515
00:42:17,500 --> 00:42:21,500
Any spacecraft entering a black hole today would be ripped apart atom by atom.

516
00:42:21,500 --> 00:42:27,500
But if we can find a way in, it may open the door to time travel or even a parallel galaxy.

517
00:42:27,500 --> 00:42:34,500
We may be starting to see ways of traveling in time or in space that are impossible now.

518
00:42:34,500 --> 00:42:40,500
A black hole really tests the limits of our current understanding about the nature of space and time in the cosmos.

519
00:42:42,500 --> 00:42:48,500
The black hole captured by the Hubble telescope is in a distant galaxy called M87.

520
00:42:48,500 --> 00:42:51,500
M87 is 50 million light years from Earth.

521
00:42:51,500 --> 00:42:58,500
Traveling there in one of our spacecraft would be the equivalent of simply circling the globe 392 billion times.

522
00:43:01,500 --> 00:43:06,500
If you've had a paranormal experience, call the sightings hotline at 1-900-933-SITE.

523
00:43:06,500 --> 00:43:09,500
That's 1-900-933-7444.

524
00:43:09,500 --> 00:43:13,500
Each call 65 cents a minute, average call last three minutes.

525
00:43:13,500 --> 00:43:18,500
Sightings is also online. Our email addresses sightings at aol.com.

526
00:43:20,500 --> 00:43:24,500
Next week on Sightings, Tim White encounters the Heartland Ghost.

527
00:43:24,500 --> 00:43:27,500
Oh man, that's weird.

528
00:43:27,500 --> 00:43:30,500
Oh, well, now that's very interesting.

529
00:43:30,500 --> 00:43:31,500
I'm gonna be okay if I sit down.

530
00:43:31,500 --> 00:43:39,500
Then these women share a terrifying memory of alien abduction and schoolmates save from certain death by life-saving angels.

531
00:43:39,500 --> 00:43:44,500
Absolutely no way that we could have made it through that without some kind of help.

532
00:43:45,500 --> 00:43:50,500
Until next time, remember, no mystery is closed to an open mind.

533
00:43:50,500 --> 00:43:53,500
For Sightings, I'm Tim White.

534
00:43:56,500 --> 00:43:59,500
Next on Sci-Fi Dark Shadows.

535
00:44:03,500 --> 00:44:07,500
Tonight on the next episode of Sci-Fi's Varscape.

536
00:44:09,500 --> 00:44:12,500
I think Stark's mask might have shot us sometime into the past.

537
00:44:12,500 --> 00:44:15,500
If we change anything here, the future might not happen, I've got some head to.

538
00:44:15,500 --> 00:44:19,500
The cold is blood thirsty and all night's impossible to control.

539
00:44:24,500 --> 00:44:26,500
Okay, let's get the fraud out of here.

540
00:44:27,500 --> 00:44:34,500
The epic continues. Sci-Fi's Varscape. Tonight at 8 only on Sci-Fi.
