1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,000
I see a body swinging from a rope.

2
00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,000
This time on Unexplained Mysteries,

3
00:00:06,000 --> 00:00:08,000
scariest places on Earth.

4
00:00:08,000 --> 00:00:11,000
It was dark. It was dumb.

5
00:00:11,000 --> 00:00:13,000
It wasn't a nice place to be.

6
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:15,000
The moment I stepped through the door,

7
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,000
there was a psychic vision of a man hanging.

8
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
There's a lot of good here, but there's a lot of evil also.

9
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,000
We'll explore some of the scariest places on Earth

10
00:00:24,000 --> 00:00:26,000
and find out why they're haunted.

11
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,000
Many historic sites are haunted

12
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:32,000
because lots of passionate, violent,

13
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,000
important things happen within those walls.

14
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:38,000
With our case studies, you'll hear the terrifying stories

15
00:00:38,000 --> 00:00:41,000
of ordinary people confronted by evil.

16
00:00:41,000 --> 00:00:43,000
I feel a lot of anger and a lot of negative violence.

17
00:00:43,000 --> 00:00:46,000
I was actually a little girl with a just a manic grill in the face.

18
00:00:46,000 --> 00:00:50,000
The family who takes vacations to see ghosts.

19
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:52,000
People want to be scared.

20
00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:55,000
And the psychic who had covered a mystery.

21
00:00:55,000 --> 00:01:00,000
My sense in seeing this man was this was not a suicide.

22
00:01:00,000 --> 00:01:02,000
That someone murdered this man.

23
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
You'll visit the most haunted castle in England.

24
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
There is something pretty potent here.

25
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:10,000
There's a very evil force.

26
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:14,000
The Texas mansion built on the sight of a bloody massacre.

27
00:01:14,000 --> 00:01:16,000
I needed to get out and get out now.

28
00:01:16,000 --> 00:01:20,000
The Civil War plantation where love never dies.

29
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:23,000
There's a woman's face.

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:27,000
And there's crying. A lot of crying.

31
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:30,000
The Seattle Hotel with a history of suicides.

32
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:32,000
Did she jump out this window?

33
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:35,000
And one of the most brutal prisons in the world.

34
00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:37,000
Men were kept chained down there.

35
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:40,000
I'm feeling that if I stayed here much longer, I'll die.

36
00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:44,000
And we'll give you our final analysis, you know, of how it's revolved.

37
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:49,000
As we uncover the truth about famous ghosts on unexplained mysteries.

38
00:01:49,000 --> 00:01:52,000
Scariest places on Earth.

39
00:01:52,000 --> 00:01:57,000
There are places around the world that can freeze your blood in terror.

40
00:01:57,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Haunted sites that are cursed by tragedy, murder and despair.

41
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:08,000
Places where horrors from the past are replayed in the present over and over.

42
00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:13,000
Here I come out here. A non-believer, quite frankly.

43
00:02:13,000 --> 00:02:15,000
And then it happens to me.

44
00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:19,000
Sometimes I really feel as if I'm being watched.

45
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:25,000
Sometimes I feel almost like whatever is here doesn't want me here.

46
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,000
Ventura, California. The Olivas, Adobe.

47
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:36,000
One of the region's wealthiest estates.

48
00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,000
This ranch was a center of social and political activity

49
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:45,000
until the patriarch of the family, Raimundo Olivas, died.

50
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:52,000
Greed ripped the family apart, forcing his bride to live the rest of her days here in poverty.

51
00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:53,000
Alone.

52
00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:57,000
Now the Adobe is a museum open to the public.

53
00:02:57,000 --> 00:03:02,000
The Olivas family is long gone, but their spirit still lingers.

54
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:07,000
We started to get reports of a woman in black being seen inside the house.

55
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,000
Wonderful, strong jaw.

56
00:03:09,000 --> 00:03:15,000
Defined face. It's a strong, powerful, attractive face.

57
00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:17,000
And they thought it was someone who had broken hand.

58
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:19,000
So they would call the police.

59
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:22,000
In fact, they'd call the police five or six times.

60
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,000
They would come inside the building. No one here.

61
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:27,000
How did you explain a figure like that?

62
00:03:27,000 --> 00:03:33,000
It's almost as if I had a black mantilla on and it covered me almost completely.

63
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:37,000
I did a double take, stepped back and looked in the room. Whatever it was was gone.

64
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:40,000
Who or what is the woman in black?

65
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:44,000
Could she be the desperate widow of Raimundo Olivas?

66
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Or is it something else?

67
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:48,000
Many historic sites are haunted.

68
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,000
And I think there's a really logical reason why.

69
00:03:51,000 --> 00:04:00,000
They are historic sites because lots of passionate, violent, important things happen within those walls.

70
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:05,000
Most people would avoid visiting places with terrifying pasts.

71
00:04:05,000 --> 00:04:11,000
But for some, the thrill of seeing a ghost is what draws them to these places.

72
00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:21,000
A ruined castle standing above the mist-shrouded moors of southern England.

73
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,000
It might be the kind of place you would expect to be haunted if you believed in ghosts.

74
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:32,000
The whole thing really about this place is amazing. The ghosts that occur here.

75
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:37,000
You had a strange feeling of something wrong. It would just start getting pretty weird.

76
00:04:37,000 --> 00:04:47,000
You learn to control your imagination because at Barry Pomroy, if you let your imagination run away with you, you could be a raven lunatic.

77
00:04:47,000 --> 00:04:51,000
Barry Pomroy Castle has been abandoned for over 300 years.

78
00:04:51,000 --> 00:05:02,000
Venturing to this remote location, visitors are surrounded by eroding buildings, forgotten cemeteries, crumbling parapets, and something else.

79
00:05:02,000 --> 00:05:09,000
It's just brooding and evil. Evil is there in the atmosphere.

80
00:05:09,000 --> 00:05:14,000
Tony Cornell is one of England's most respected paranormal investigators.

81
00:05:14,000 --> 00:05:20,000
He's here at Barry Pomroy to conduct the first comprehensive investigation of the castle.

82
00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:24,000
In my view, it's one of the most interesting cases I think I've come across.

83
00:05:24,000 --> 00:05:30,000
Basically because so many people have seen things and felt things. You don't get that in all hauntings.

84
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:37,000
Cornell meets up with historian Derek Seymour, an expert on the castle and its dark secrets.

85
00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:41,000
The best-known ghost here is the white lady.

86
00:05:41,000 --> 00:05:50,000
And the white lady is, of course, the unfortunate Lady Margaret, who is seen to walk at the top of the stairs in that tower down in the dungeon.

87
00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:53,000
She is really quite frequently seen.

88
00:05:53,000 --> 00:06:01,000
Seymour believes that this white lady is the ghost of Lady Margaret Pomroy, who died of starvation imprisoned in this dungeon.

89
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:06,000
Her sister locked her up after discovering they were both in love with the same man.

90
00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:11,000
Those brave enough to enter the dungeon have felt her ghostly presence.

91
00:06:11,000 --> 00:06:18,000
When we first went down the stairs into the chamber, it was dark. It was damp.

92
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:22,000
And it wasn't a nice place to be.

93
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:28,000
But then this evil presence, you could sense it was evil.

94
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:31,000
I don't know how to describe it any other way, really.

95
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:36,000
And then I heard the footsteps very quick, very light.

96
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,000
And the closer she got, the more panic-stricken I felt.

97
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:46,000
I just wanted to get out of the place and not come back.

98
00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:53,000
In his investigation, Seymour interviewed Jack Hazard, who used to work at the ruins as a master stone mason.

99
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:57,000
Hazard not only had a ghostly encounter here, he photographed it.

100
00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,000
He started to rain and the wind started to blow.

101
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:05,000
And I thought there was something happening unusual.

102
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:11,000
So I got the disc camera out and I took five or six shots.

103
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:16,000
And on five of the prints, white shapes came out.

104
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:21,000
Whatever they were, I had no idea, but it was the most unusual Sunday morning.

105
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:24,000
There have also been sightings of a blue lady at the castle.

106
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:31,000
According to some, she is the spirit of a young maiden who was raped by her father, a prominent Norman Lord.

107
00:07:31,000 --> 00:07:36,000
When she gave birth to his child, she killed it rather than live with the shame.

108
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:41,000
And this unfortunate child was strangled.

109
00:07:41,000 --> 00:07:49,000
Now, she's quite frequently seen. She's very evil and people don't like the sight of her at all.

110
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:54,000
Another entity has also been identified by psychic investigator Bob Dalby.

111
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:58,000
I was conducting an investigation, expecting nothing at all. I was about to leave.

112
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:03,000
When just by the vampire walls and the stairs leading down, I saw this huge black cloud.

113
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:08,000
And to me, it seems that probably the hugest and blackest deepest thing I'd ever seen.

114
00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:13,000
Dalby quickly fled the castle, but the menacing force followed him to his house.

115
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:17,000
It later revealed itself to his wife.

116
00:08:17,000 --> 00:08:21,000
I actually had the experience of somebody sitting on the back of my legs while I was lying on the bed,

117
00:08:21,000 --> 00:08:25,000
thinking it was Bob messing about. I told him to get off, turned around and it was actually a little girl.

118
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:30,000
Well, they both came to see me the next afternoon. They were so terrified.

119
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,000
And I can tell you that they were frozen with shock.

120
00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:39,000
Everyone who visits Berry-Palmeroy Castle seems to experience something unexplainable.

121
00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:47,000
To me, this is probably, I go farther and say it is, the most haunted castle in England.

122
00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:52,000
There is something pretty potent here. There's a very evil force.

123
00:08:52,000 --> 00:08:58,000
And if ever you encounter it, I'm going to Berry-Palmeroy. Get out quick.

124
00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:05,000
Next up, more scariest places on earth. A Texas mansion with a history soaked in blood.

125
00:09:05,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Every step I took, there was another step behind me. I feel a lot of anger and a lot of negative violence.

126
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,000
I needed to get out and get out now.

127
00:09:12,000 --> 00:09:15,000
The Civil War plantation haunted by a war widow.

128
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,000
She's here. She's just a part of Abinem.

129
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,000
It's very possible that he may have died from a broken heart.

130
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,000
Love is a very powerful emotion and it can withstand all time.

131
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,000
The Jesuit monastery with a dark secret.

132
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:33,000
I saw somebody fall out of this window and when I saw it, my heart just jumped.

133
00:09:33,000 --> 00:09:38,000
People who commit real genuine suicides do tend to bring on hauntings.

134
00:09:38,000 --> 00:09:42,000
Perhaps he's trying to tell us something about how he was formatted in his life.

135
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:46,000
A psychic takes an unnerving tour of the most infamous prison in the world.

136
00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:50,000
I'm feeling that if I stayed here much longer, I'll die.

137
00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:54,000
And we'll give you our ultimate update with our OnX report.

138
00:09:54,000 --> 00:09:58,000
Stay tuned for more on Unexplained Mysteries.

139
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:03,000
From the Moors of England to the parched plains of Texas,

140
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,000
hauntings can occur in every corner of the world.

141
00:10:09,000 --> 00:10:14,000
San Antonio, home of the Alamo, and Victoria's Black Swan Inn,

142
00:10:14,000 --> 00:10:18,000
a serene getaway spot for new people.

143
00:10:18,000 --> 00:10:21,000
The world is full of people.

144
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:23,000
The world is full of people.

145
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:27,000
But would it be so popular if they knew the truth about this inn?

146
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:30,000
The murders, the suicides, and the ghosts?

147
00:10:30,000 --> 00:10:34,000
I wasn't aware that there were spirits when I first came to the property,

148
00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:40,000
but shortly thereafter, I was very much aware of everything that was going on here.

149
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:44,000
From voices to doors opening and closing and footsteps.

150
00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,000
Joanne Rivera not only runs the Black Swan,

151
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,000
but also runs the Black Swan.

152
00:10:50,000 --> 00:10:54,000
Joanne Rivera not only runs the Black Swan, she lives here.

153
00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:57,000
She's witnessed things she can't explain.

154
00:10:57,000 --> 00:11:02,000
The dolls would all be rearranged, and it was if there were children that had been in there playing.

155
00:11:02,000 --> 00:11:04,000
The lights would turn off and on.

156
00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:10,000
It sometimes sounds like a piano, like this piano, is playing all by itself.

157
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:12,000
Joanne isn't alone.

158
00:11:12,000 --> 00:11:17,000
Her daughter Meredith also ran into something unusual in the south wing of the inn.

159
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,000
The last time I went down there by myself, the only time,

160
00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,000
every step I took there was another step behind me.

161
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:30,000
I came running back to my mom, because I was real uncomfortable.

162
00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:35,000
The south wing harbors a lot of animosity and a lot of anger.

163
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:38,000
I feel a lot of anger and a lot of negative violence.

164
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,000
There was a time when I first came here that I was working in one of the closets in the south wing,

165
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:46,000
and I got the feeling that I was being watched from the attic.

166
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:50,000
I felt very threatened that I needed to get out and get out now.

167
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:55,000
Soon, Joanne came face to face with the entity that seemed to be stalking her.

168
00:11:55,000 --> 00:12:02,000
All of a sudden, the bedroom lights came on, and there was a man standing at the foot of my bed with his hands on his hips.

169
00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:06,000
At first I thought, well, it was a dream. You know, you were just imagining things.

170
00:12:06,000 --> 00:12:11,000
But then this went on every night for a good week, about the same time this man would come to the room.

171
00:12:11,000 --> 00:12:15,000
Meredith also had her own close encounter with this male spirit.

172
00:12:15,000 --> 00:12:18,000
I was laying in bed, and there was lightning, so there was lots of shadows.

173
00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:23,000
But a couple of times I looked, and I saw an old wrinkly-faced man.

174
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,000
And not only, I mean, he was looking in the window at me.

175
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:30,000
And the first time I saw it, I was scared, but I wasn't sure if he was really there or not.

176
00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:34,000
But I looked again, and he was there each time, just looking.

177
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:40,000
I was so frightened because his face was there clearly, and there was no balcony, there's no steps, there's no tree.

178
00:12:40,000 --> 00:12:42,000
There's no way he could hold himself there.

179
00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,000
So finally she moved out of the room.

180
00:12:45,000 --> 00:12:51,000
And actually, until today, no one has ever slept in that room again.

181
00:12:51,000 --> 00:12:55,000
And near this inns famous gazebo lurks something else.

182
00:12:55,000 --> 00:13:02,000
We have a young woman who likes that area. It's very comforting. It's very romantic, so maybe she's just drawn to that area.

183
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:08,000
Joanne was intrigued with this female spirit and wanted to know who she was.

184
00:13:08,000 --> 00:13:18,000
She contacted local historian Docia Williams, who told her that the house was once owned by Park Street, a prominent San Antonio lawyer.

185
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:23,000
Street lived here back in the 1950s with his young wife, Joleen.

186
00:13:23,000 --> 00:13:29,000
Joleen Wood Street died very, very young of cancer.

187
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:34,000
She was in her 30s. She did have one youngster at the time, or her dad.

188
00:13:34,000 --> 00:13:37,000
But she was a very beautiful woman.

189
00:13:37,000 --> 00:13:39,000
Had always been very, very lovely.

190
00:13:39,000 --> 00:13:50,000
And I understand she is probably one of the entities or spirits that still closely watches over the house because she was very possessive of it when she lived here and very protective of it and loved it very much.

191
00:13:50,000 --> 00:13:56,000
Park and Joleen had everything. Money, fame, love.

192
00:13:56,000 --> 00:14:01,000
But shortly after his wife's tragic death, Park decided to take his own life.

193
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:13,000
I take for granted the story that was in the Express News and on the police blotters that from a four-poster bed with a taster he is supposed to have hung himself.

194
00:14:13,000 --> 00:14:18,000
Of course, it's also said that perhaps he didn't hang himself that he was murdered.

195
00:14:18,000 --> 00:14:22,000
This real-life mystery may hold the key to the haunting.

196
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:29,000
Part of the reason that I'm here and that the energies and the spirits that are putting up with me is that I'm here to resolve some of their issues.

197
00:14:29,000 --> 00:14:31,000
And maybe that's Park's death.

198
00:14:31,000 --> 00:14:36,000
To help solve this mystery, Joanne contacted psychic Peter James.

199
00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:43,000
After his initial survey of the end, Peter comes to a shocking conclusion about Park Street's death.

200
00:14:43,000 --> 00:14:53,000
This person died very tragically. I think it was, his life was taken at the hand of another, I think.

201
00:14:53,000 --> 00:14:55,000
Was Park Street really murdered?

202
00:14:55,000 --> 00:15:07,000
In the many years that I've investigated hauntings, there's no doubt in my mind that the nature of the circumstances as to how Park's died was in fact murder.

203
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:11,000
And I would wager all of my psychic ability on that fact.

204
00:15:11,000 --> 00:15:19,000
There was a blow to the head or something to the head. There was an injury to the head is what I'm feeling.

205
00:15:19,000 --> 00:15:28,000
Peter was now ready to meet with Joanne and delve deeper into this mystery. Why was Park Street murdered and who was responsible?

206
00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:34,000
So far I've found that there's at least four, maybe six entities, ghosts here.

207
00:15:34,000 --> 00:15:36,000
What's the name, Wood, have any spirit? Wood.

208
00:15:36,000 --> 00:15:38,000
Wood, that's the Joleen Woods.

209
00:15:38,000 --> 00:15:39,000
That's the name?

210
00:15:39,000 --> 00:15:42,000
Yes. When Peter said the word Wood, it was a very good feeling.

211
00:15:42,000 --> 00:15:49,000
It's nice to know that Joleen is here and that other people can sense her and feel her presence here too.

212
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:53,000
I also get a sense like I'm being watched through a window. What about an older gentleman?

213
00:15:53,000 --> 00:16:00,000
Peter noticed that there was a man that used to stare in the bedroom. There's two men upstairs, I think.

214
00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:09,000
One is the old man that looks through the windows that my daughter experienced and also the man that comes into my bedroom and would stand at the foot of the bed.

215
00:16:09,000 --> 00:16:13,000
Peter leads Joanne to the south wing of the house.

216
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:15,000
This hallway is very active.

217
00:16:15,000 --> 00:16:17,000
I really hate this hallway.

218
00:16:17,000 --> 00:16:22,000
He is drawn to the closet that earlier terrified Joanne.

219
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,000
What's there? What's there? A death here less than 20 years ago?

220
00:16:25,000 --> 00:16:37,000
Yes. When Peter talked about the closet that I really don't like to go into and feel very uncomfortable about, he acknowledged that there was a lot of energy there.

221
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:47,000
Now, did anyone ever tell you I'm receiving it vibrationally? Is there some kind of a treasure here?

222
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:50,000
There's supposed to be. I haven't found it.

223
00:16:50,000 --> 00:17:01,000
There is a very aggressive spirit there and I think he's trying. I think there are two that are still battling over a buried treasure.

224
00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:04,000
Was this treasure the cause of the bloody crime?

225
00:17:04,000 --> 00:17:11,000
There was something in that closet that they were after. I believe that he may have come home unexpectedly.

226
00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:16,000
I have a sense that there were two men that were involved with whatever was in that closet.

227
00:17:16,000 --> 00:17:27,000
I think the treasure is in the south wing of the house somewhere and I think the ghost that's back there trying to keep Joanne from finding this buried treasure.

228
00:17:27,000 --> 00:17:32,000
I think that when I find that treasure, that that will open the door to Park's death.

229
00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:41,000
Coming up on Unexplained Mysteries, Scariest Places on Earth, the southern plantation where a bloody battle tore two lovers apart.

230
00:17:41,000 --> 00:17:50,000
There's crying, a lot of crying. It's very possible that he may have died from a broken heart. She's here. She's just a part of Abinem.

231
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,000
The Seattle Hotel where guests check in to check out the ghosts.

232
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,000
People want to be scared.

233
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:58,000
People commonly come from all around to see the ghosts.

234
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:01,000
And a prison where tortured souls can't escape.

235
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:05,000
There is an energy here unlike any other that I've ever experienced.

236
00:18:05,000 --> 00:18:09,000
Sounds of the cell door closing. Somebody appearing and then disappearing.

237
00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:14,000
And we'll unlock the mystery of these historic haunts in our Unex report.

238
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:18,000
Coming up on Unexplained Mysteries,

239
00:18:20,000 --> 00:18:24,000
Unexplained Mysteries, Scariest Places on Earth.

240
00:18:25,000 --> 00:18:32,000
There is someone here. And I feel like whoever she is, she means no harm.

241
00:18:37,000 --> 00:18:45,000
Avonelle is a perfectly preserved piece of southern history. Confederate soldiers marched by these doors on the way to war.

242
00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:49,000
And then there was the beautiful lady left behind.

243
00:18:49,000 --> 00:18:52,000
She's here. She's just a part of Avonelle.

244
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:57,000
The house was built in 1836 in Bedford, Virginia by William Burrell.

245
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:04,000
In its finer days, it was the centerpiece of social, cultural and political life in Bedford.

246
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:10,000
But when Burrell died and left Avonelle to his wife Frances, hardship fell on the plantation.

247
00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:15,000
She had four daughters. She had 50 servants plus.

248
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,000
Everyone, of course, had their own lives to live.

249
00:19:18,000 --> 00:19:23,000
Everyone on occasion would be sick, hungry, giving birth.

250
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:25,000
She had a lot to take care of.

251
00:19:25,000 --> 00:19:28,000
The house is now a bed and breakfast.

252
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:34,000
But what unwary guests don't expect is the unsettling sight of empty chairs rocking

253
00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:38,000
and beds mysteriously being turned down by themselves.

254
00:19:38,000 --> 00:19:42,000
This has been going on for years at Avonelle.

255
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:46,000
Now you're going to ask me if I believe in ghosts.

256
00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:49,000
Yes, I believe in them because I've seen one.

257
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:51,000
I saw the white lady.

258
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,000
Peggy grew up at Avonelle.

259
00:19:53,000 --> 00:19:59,000
For her and her family, sightings of the white lady were a normal part of life here.

260
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:02,000
She came on up that way the street is now.

261
00:20:02,000 --> 00:20:07,000
And when she got over across the street there, there was a big old tree.

262
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:09,000
She disappeared.

263
00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:14,000
And my mother turned and said, did any of you see what I've just seen?

264
00:20:14,000 --> 00:20:17,000
Well, several of us said yes.

265
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:22,000
Well, I always thought it was Ms. Burrell just looking after the place.

266
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:25,000
Is the white lady of Avonelle, Frances Burrell?

267
00:20:25,000 --> 00:20:27,000
Many have their doubts.

268
00:20:27,000 --> 00:20:31,000
To find out, psychic Deborah Caravelli is called in.

269
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,000
There definitely is a presence here.

270
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:39,000
I think that there's a little bit of sadness too because of all the hardships and the difficulties that they went through.

271
00:20:39,000 --> 00:20:45,000
But I definitely feel that there's that particular feeling here.

272
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:49,000
Deborah seems to make contact with an entity in this bedroom.

273
00:20:49,000 --> 00:20:53,000
But it's not Frances who everyone knew as Old Miss.

274
00:20:53,000 --> 00:20:56,000
There's a woman's face.

275
00:20:56,000 --> 00:21:00,000
And there's crying, a lot of crying.

276
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:03,000
I feel it's Fan. I do not think it's Old Miss.

277
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:08,000
She wants to get it back, but she knows it won't be in the same way.

278
00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:13,000
The family and the closeness and all part of life.

279
00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:18,000
It was home. It was happy, even though there were some sorrow.

280
00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:23,000
Fan was the nickname of William and Frances' daughter, Fanny.

281
00:21:23,000 --> 00:21:29,000
She was close to everyone and I think she just must have a wonderful personality that anyone could love.

282
00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:32,000
She was known as the flower of Avonel.

283
00:21:32,000 --> 00:21:36,000
And every man who met her tried to win the young woman's heart.

284
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:41,000
But Fanny was engaged to her childhood sweetheart, James Breckenridge.

285
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,000
They got back together when they got a little older and just found out they had a lot in common.

286
00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:48,000
And just felt very deeply in love.

287
00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:53,000
When the civil war started and James was called to duty, the two were married.

288
00:21:53,000 --> 00:21:57,000
A few days after the wedding, James went off to battle.

289
00:21:57,000 --> 00:22:01,000
Fanny visited her husband a few months later when he was on leave.

290
00:22:01,000 --> 00:22:05,000
It would be the last time they would see each other.

291
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:15,000
Apparently she contracted typhoid, came back to Avonel and in August, 1862, just months after she had married, Captain Breckenridge, she died.

292
00:22:15,000 --> 00:22:20,000
When he received the news of his wife's death, James made a decision.

293
00:22:20,000 --> 00:22:27,000
Captain Breckenridge, rather than to come back to a fallen country, south had lost and his bride had died,

294
00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:31,000
put himself before enemy fire and was killed.

295
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:36,000
A tombstone in Bedford is inscribed with the names of Fanny and James.

296
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:39,000
But James' body was never found.

297
00:22:39,000 --> 00:22:42,000
Fanny lies in this crypt alone.

298
00:22:42,000 --> 00:22:49,000
Deborah believes that Fanny is the white lady, forever doomed to wander Avonel in her wedding dress.

299
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:52,000
Waiting for her husband to return.

300
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:59,000
Love is a very powerful emotion and it can withstand all time.

301
00:22:59,000 --> 00:23:06,000
Coming up on Unexplained Mysteries, a psychic witnesses the violent death of a Jesuit priest.

302
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,000
I see a body swinging from a rope.

303
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:12,000
A photographer on a mission.

304
00:23:12,000 --> 00:23:15,000
We came to the castle today to try to capture ghosts.

305
00:23:15,000 --> 00:23:18,000
An anguished spirit with a message.

306
00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:21,000
Perhaps he's trying to tell us how he was tormented in his life.

307
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:24,000
And one of the most terrifying places in America.

308
00:23:24,000 --> 00:23:29,000
Sounds of the cell door closing, of somebody appearing and then disappearing.

309
00:23:29,000 --> 00:23:35,000
At least a hundred ghosts here, a hundred entities that walk these corridors.

310
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:39,000
And you'll get the climactic update with our Unex report.

311
00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:42,000
Coming up on Unexplained Mysteries.

312
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:49,000
Unexplained Mysteries, scariest places on earth.

313
00:23:49,000 --> 00:23:57,000
People commonly come from all around to see the ghosts, especially on equinoxes and Halloween night.

314
00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:07,000
The Manresa Castle stands just as it did when it was first built in 1892.

315
00:24:07,000 --> 00:24:15,000
Located near Puget Sound in Washington, two tragic suicides have been committed on the third floor of this hotel.

316
00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:21,000
In 1921, a woman leapt to her death from the window of room 306.

317
00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:30,000
Further down the hall, in the turret room, a Jesuit priest hung himself when the castle was being used as a monastery.

318
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:41,000
People who commit real, genuine suicides do tend to bring on hauntings or haunt a place where they met their demise by their own hands.

319
00:24:41,000 --> 00:24:51,000
While the thought of spending a vacation in a hotel filled with tormented spirits doesn't appeal to everyone, many visitors come to the Manresa hoping to see a ghost.

320
00:24:51,000 --> 00:24:59,000
Rob Freeman and Sue Johnston regularly bring their children and their friends to the infamous turret room for seances.

321
00:24:59,000 --> 00:25:03,000
Definitely the darkest feeling that comes out is this Jesuit priest.

322
00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:08,000
We decided to ask him for page numbers in the Bible because that's easy to get through the Ouija board.

323
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:10,000
There's a row of numbers there, sure enough.

324
00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:20,000
He revealed to us a page number and it's something that went along with the idea that he was perhaps evil or perverted in his life

325
00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,000
and this is what brought him to the point of suicide.

326
00:25:23,000 --> 00:25:26,000
And we found a passage here in Psalm 101,

327
00:25:26,000 --> 00:25:30,000
A perverse nature shall be absent from me, I will not entertain.

328
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:36,000
Evil I will silence him who secretly slanders his neighbor, I will not tolerate one who is conceited.

329
00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:44,000
Arrogant. So perhaps he's trying to tell us something about himself and something about his life and how he was tormented in his life

330
00:25:44,000 --> 00:25:48,000
and now in death that he feels he's done pentatons.

331
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:52,000
People want to be scared. People want to be scared.

332
00:25:52,000 --> 00:26:00,000
That's why we're here. That's why we come to experience what others have written about in these diaries that are in the rooms.

333
00:26:00,000 --> 00:26:07,000
This journal is a record of the ghostly encounters which have occurred in this room over the years.

334
00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:14,000
I've seen Kate and I'm pretty sure that she exists. You could make out a face in the shadow.

335
00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:21,000
You just, you're frozen and just wait for morning to come so you can share your experiences.

336
00:26:21,000 --> 00:26:24,000
You don't dare get up. You're too afraid to get up.

337
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:30,000
They're referring to the spirit of a woman who committed suicide here by jumping out her window.

338
00:26:30,000 --> 00:26:36,000
To better understand why these two spirits are here, the hotel contacted psychic Rhonda Griffin.

339
00:26:36,000 --> 00:26:43,000
Without being told any details of the hotel's history, Rhonda is led to room 302.

340
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:47,000
Someone's crying. Someone's crying here.

341
00:26:51,000 --> 00:26:57,000
Someone's waiting. Something's... Someone's waiting here.

342
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:08,000
Did she jump out this window?

343
00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:16,000
Picture I just saw. I saw somebody fall out of this, fall out of a window.

344
00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,000
And when I saw it, my heart just jumped.

345
00:27:39,000 --> 00:27:45,000
Before she can recover from her encounter with Kate, Rhonda feels another presence.

346
00:27:45,000 --> 00:27:48,000
It draws her toward the turret room.

347
00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:54,000
I'm feeling an energy vortex coming right down through the center of this.

348
00:27:54,000 --> 00:28:01,000
Now, a lot of times, is the way things are built, they'll help to amplify particular energies.

349
00:28:01,000 --> 00:28:05,000
Now, most places are built on what's called lay lines, okay?

350
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:08,000
And it's a concentration of energy.

351
00:28:08,000 --> 00:28:13,000
Where these lay lines cross is where energy vortexes are created.

352
00:28:13,000 --> 00:28:18,000
Rhonda senses that this energy vortex is centered in the upstairs attic.

353
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:21,000
She makes her way deeper into the hotel.

354
00:28:21,000 --> 00:28:25,000
It feels like right about here, and I'm like walking through like a time warp.

355
00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:30,000
And it feels like I'm going back to another time that this place was very different.

356
00:28:30,000 --> 00:28:33,000
The structure was very different.

357
00:28:33,000 --> 00:28:36,000
It was used, it didn't have a family.

358
00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:38,000
I don't feel a family.

359
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:40,000
Oh, I don't feel a family.

360
00:28:40,000 --> 00:28:46,000
Rhonda appears to have crossed into a time when the hotel was used as a Jesuit monastery.

361
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:50,000
I'm watching a man sitting on the floor.

362
00:28:50,000 --> 00:28:52,000
He's isolated, he's alone.

363
00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:55,000
He's holy. I see him.

364
00:28:56,000 --> 00:29:00,000
He's almost like a...

365
00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:05,000
He's seated, and he would come up here.

366
00:29:05,000 --> 00:29:08,000
God.

367
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:11,000
Oh, God.

368
00:29:11,000 --> 00:29:14,000
Oh, God.

369
00:29:14,000 --> 00:29:19,000
It's not...

370
00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:21,000
It's not ready to...

371
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,000
It's not ready to... it's despair.

372
00:29:25,000 --> 00:29:33,000
It's a feeling of hopelessness, helplessness.

373
00:29:33,000 --> 00:29:35,000
He's very...

374
00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,000
He's a religious person.

375
00:29:37,000 --> 00:29:40,000
He's...

376
00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:45,000
I see a body swinging.

377
00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:48,000
I see a body swinging.

378
00:29:48,000 --> 00:29:50,000
From a rope.

379
00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:15,000
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name.

380
00:30:15,000 --> 00:30:19,000
Bless the Lord, O my soul, and give that all his benefits.

381
00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:23,000
If it gives all your iniquities, we heal all your diseases.

382
00:30:23,000 --> 00:30:25,000
It redeems your life from the grave.

383
00:30:25,000 --> 00:30:28,000
It crowns you with loving kindness and...

384
00:30:28,000 --> 00:30:32,000
You watch someone do this, and you have to think in the back of your mind,

385
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:36,000
well, this could be some kind of a put-on type of deal.

386
00:30:36,000 --> 00:30:39,000
But then she came up with a couple things tonight that were unexplainable.

387
00:30:39,000 --> 00:30:43,000
And how'd she come up with the page number in the Bible?

388
00:30:43,000 --> 00:30:46,000
I can't explain that. No one else can either. It just happened.

389
00:30:46,000 --> 00:30:52,000
Whatever haunts this castle continues to draw in tourists from all around the world,

390
00:30:52,000 --> 00:30:56,000
each hoping to come away with their own ghost story to tell.

391
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:04,000
Next on Unexplained Mysteries, we'll take you on a tour of one of the most brutal places in America.

392
00:31:04,000 --> 00:31:06,000
Men were kept chained down in there.

393
00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:11,000
I'm feeling that if I stay here much longer, I'll die.

394
00:31:11,000 --> 00:31:14,000
The killer who still lurks these corridors.

395
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:18,000
Joseph Kreitzer, he was one of the toughest of the bunch.

396
00:31:18,000 --> 00:31:24,000
Joseph is keeping me captive here. Joseph is placing me here against my will.

397
00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:28,000
And the psychic encounter that brought the suffering back to life.

398
00:31:28,000 --> 00:31:35,000
There could not be any crime in the world worth the punishment that I feel this ends in.

399
00:31:35,000 --> 00:31:37,000
This entity endured.

400
00:31:37,000 --> 00:31:45,000
And finally, we'll unlock the secret of these cursed sights in our Unex report on Unexplained Mysteries.

401
00:31:48,000 --> 00:31:52,000
Unexplained Mysteries, scariest places on earth.

402
00:31:54,000 --> 00:32:00,000
Sounds of the cell door closing. Somebody appearing and then disappearing.

403
00:32:00,000 --> 00:32:06,000
Those type of things would really send chills up your spine.

404
00:32:11,000 --> 00:32:15,000
The cold shark infested waters of San Francisco Bay.

405
00:32:15,000 --> 00:32:19,000
At its center, Alcatraz, the rock.

406
00:32:19,000 --> 00:32:25,000
As a military prison, Alcatraz was known as the most brutal place to serve time.

407
00:32:25,000 --> 00:32:31,000
Prisoners were chained to the walls, beaten and forced to do backbreaking labor.

408
00:32:31,000 --> 00:32:36,000
Alcatraz, wound, and by 1909, the cell house that it dominates the top of the island,

409
00:32:36,000 --> 00:32:40,000
had been built for the incarceration of military prisoners.

410
00:32:40,000 --> 00:32:46,000
By the 1930s, Alcatraz was turned into a federal penitentiary to house gangsters.

411
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:54,000
For the next 30 years, this was the final stop for criminals who were too violent and dangerous for the normal prison system.

412
00:32:54,000 --> 00:32:58,000
In 1963, the prison was shut down.

413
00:32:58,000 --> 00:33:02,000
Ten years later, it was reopened as a tourist attraction.

414
00:33:02,000 --> 00:33:08,000
But some say the spirits of the men who endured the brutality of the rock are still here.

415
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:12,000
When you walk in, it's really dark and it's very cold in there.

416
00:33:12,000 --> 00:33:15,000
And I got the chills and I had to leave. I didn't like it at all.

417
00:33:15,000 --> 00:33:20,000
Normally, I don't believe in ghosts, but in a place like that where there have been so many violent deaths,

418
00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:24,000
and the kind of people that were there, you know, it's quite possible.

419
00:33:24,000 --> 00:33:32,000
The official policy about ghosts on Alcatraz is we would say that, in fact, well, maybe things that happened, maybe they didn't.

420
00:33:32,000 --> 00:33:37,000
It's just something that wasn't officially sanctioned.

421
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:45,000
To determine whether or not Alcatraz is haunted, psychic Peter James agreed to spend the night on this desolate island.

422
00:33:45,000 --> 00:33:52,000
Although he has been investigating haunted sites for years, nothing had prepared him for what he was about to encounter.

423
00:33:52,000 --> 00:33:55,000
Alcatraz was a place that drove men mad.

424
00:33:55,000 --> 00:33:56,000
My dear.

425
00:33:56,000 --> 00:33:57,000
Military prison.

426
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:58,000
I like it.

427
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:01,000
They're in pain and I'm in pain and there's blood here.

428
00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,000
They couldn't break out of the prison.

429
00:34:04,000 --> 00:34:05,000
There's trouble on the rock.

430
00:34:05,000 --> 00:34:10,000
The voices of a hundred tortured souls echo in Peter's brain.

431
00:34:11,000 --> 00:34:17,000
I know little or nothing about Alcatraz other than what I learned here during the past two days that I've been here.

432
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:27,000
And my feelings are strongly that there is an energy here unlike any other that I've ever experienced.

433
00:34:27,000 --> 00:34:34,000
Ex-guard and Alcatraz historian Al Blumquist agreed to review Peter's psychic impressions for accuracy.

434
00:34:34,000 --> 00:34:37,000
One episode brought back chilling memories.

435
00:34:37,000 --> 00:34:44,000
I feel like I'm being trapped here in this particular area.

436
00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:46,000
We were told there's trouble on the rock.

437
00:34:46,000 --> 00:34:53,000
On May the 2nd, 1946, six inmates with other lesser accomplices decided to blast their way out of the prison.

438
00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:58,000
I feel like I'm being thrown into this cell and I'm being thrown into that cell.

439
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:04,000
During that time they gathered up nine officers, put them inside of cells to be used as hostages.

440
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,000
I am a person of authority.

441
00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:13,000
I feel like I should be on the other side of the bars, but I'm here against my will.

442
00:35:13,000 --> 00:35:25,000
I am placed here by force and at the point of the gun there's a... that Joseph is involved here.

443
00:35:25,000 --> 00:35:32,000
Joseph Kretzer, he was one of the toughest of the bunch. He was really a mean dog.

444
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:37,000
Joseph is keeping me captive here. Joseph is placing me here against my will.

445
00:35:37,000 --> 00:35:43,000
Joe Kretzer took the 45 automatic and started shooting these innocent officers inside the cell.

446
00:35:43,000 --> 00:35:49,000
I'm sensing that I, Bill or William lost his life here.

447
00:35:49,000 --> 00:35:54,000
William Miller later died in the hospital in San Francisco. Other officers were very seriously wounded.

448
00:35:54,000 --> 00:35:56,000
The name starts with a C.

449
00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:59,000
Cecil Corwin had his lower jaw torn away.

450
00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:04,000
I wonder if they weren't all killed in this spot because they were in there in massive humanity.

451
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:11,000
And here they've been firing into that cell. You could tell what kind of a person this Kretzer really was by when he had to do a thing like that.

452
00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:19,000
When the military arrived to put down the uprising, Kretzer and the other inmates fled to a utility corridor in Seablock.

453
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:23,000
Peter follows the psychic trail of the doomed prisoners.

454
00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:30,000
Joseph, I'm coming through.

455
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:43,000
Mark, Mark, Mark, Marty, Marty, Mark. Give me a better verification of a name. Marv, Marvin, Marvin, is that Marvin?

456
00:36:43,000 --> 00:36:48,000
Marvin Hubbard died in the utility corridor of Seablock.

457
00:36:48,000 --> 00:37:03,000
I am responding to a sensation here and I feel like I'm losing consciousness and what Joseph is telling me is that he's been shot.

458
00:37:03,000 --> 00:37:09,000
Joseph Dutch Kretzer died in the utility corridor of Seablock.

459
00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:14,000
Oh, it's cold. It's freezing back here. There's a cold spot here.

460
00:37:14,000 --> 00:37:23,000
Oh, yes. Hello. There is a third soul here with a letter B.

461
00:37:23,000 --> 00:37:28,000
Bernard Paul Coy died in the utility corridor of Seablock.

462
00:37:28,000 --> 00:37:40,000
They're moaning. The pain is so intense. They're like little boys back here. They're moaning, almost asking for the guidance of their parents right now.

463
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:55,000
Peter James leaves Alcatraz with a new appreciation for the horror that went on here. Decades of violence, death and despair forever imprinted in the walls of this cold, dark prison.

464
00:37:55,000 --> 00:38:08,000
There are at least 100 ghosts here, 100 entities that walk these corridors looking for a way out, looking for that life force that they seem to have lost somewhere.

465
00:38:08,000 --> 00:38:10,000
Tragedy.

466
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:20,000
I can't really say that I'm a believer myself, but like many people, I guess there are some things that just simply are unexplained.

467
00:38:20,000 --> 00:38:30,000
Next, the Unex Report. We'll examine the evidence and answer the questions. Why are these the scariest places on Earth?

468
00:38:30,000 --> 00:38:40,000
Mysteries left unsolved? Murders left unpunished? Lovers torn apart by tragedy? Or is it something else that we don't yet understand?

469
00:38:40,000 --> 00:38:52,000
We'll bring it all together next with our Unex Report when unexplained mysteries return.

470
00:38:52,000 --> 00:39:07,000
And now for the Unex Report. For some, these sites are a chance to get in touch with the past. But as we've seen, sometimes the past is still alive within the walls of these notorious haunts.

471
00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:10,000
People are there and you're not in this room.

472
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:14,000
Sometimes I really feel as if I'm being watched.

473
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:16,000
There definitely is a presence here.

474
00:39:16,000 --> 00:39:25,000
To discover why the ghosts of the past still wander these famous sites, we need to open up our minds to the paranormal possibilities.

475
00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:30,000
I never believed in ghosts and then when I moved in here, I saw it for myself and I believed it.

476
00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:37,000
Here I come out here, a non-believer, quite frankly. And then it happens to me.

477
00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:42,000
If you let your imagination run away with you, you could be a raven lunatic.

478
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:46,000
Sunkics seem to offer a window into this past.

479
00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:54,000
My sense in seeing this man was this was not a suicide. That someone murdered this man.

480
00:39:54,000 --> 00:39:58,000
I see a body swinging from a rope.

481
00:39:58,000 --> 00:40:04,000
Joseph is keeping me captive here. Joseph is placing me here against my will.

482
00:40:04,000 --> 00:40:10,000
Experts who have visited these sites and experienced the horror have their own theories.

483
00:40:10,000 --> 00:40:19,000
Many historic sites are haunted because lots of passionate, violent, important things happened within those walls.

484
00:40:19,000 --> 00:40:27,000
We are seeing not what's actually occurring at the time, but what did occur many, many, many times in the past.

485
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:30,000
We've heard from the terrified witnesses.

486
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,000
I did a double take, stepped back and looked in the room, whatever it was was gone.

487
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:38,000
I just wanted to get out of the place and not come back.

488
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,000
I feel a lot of anger and a lot of negative violence.

489
00:40:41,000 --> 00:40:45,000
And the people who are drawn to these places of torment and sorrow.

490
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:49,000
We came to the castle today to try to capture ghosts.

491
00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:51,000
People commonly come from all around to see the ghosts.

492
00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:55,000
People want to be scared. That's why we're here.

493
00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:03,000
One thing that everyone agrees on is that in places like Berry-Palmeroy Castle, the Black Swan Inn and Elcatraz,

494
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:07,000
the past is still very much alive.

495
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:12,000
But no one is sure what exactly that past is trying to tell us.

496
00:41:12,000 --> 00:41:18,000
That is why these infamous haunts must remain an unexplained mystery.

497
00:41:33,000 --> 00:41:37,000
This is the key to putting a criminal behind bars.
