Next on "Paranormal Caught on Camera"...
A spooky shadow spirit hiding in a cemetery.
I was ready to run, I was ready to run.
- Please,! - Attacked by the Rake,
a monster borne from the darkest corners of the Internet.
As this video shows, the Rake is ready to rip your face off.
A vengeful spirit takes control of a car.
Oh, God!
You have got to be kidding me.
The car alarm goes off and when I look to my right,
my heart dropped because you don't know what's going on
at that point in time.
Alien lights spotted from a plane over California.
It was a bright light that became two lights,
and I couldn't explain what I was looking at.
Oh!
A trespasser gets a ghostly warning
in an abandoned house.
If somebody is throwing something at you,
you're dealing with an apparition
or an intelligent type of spirit.
Oh, my God! this place.
And even more paranormal footage you have to see to believe.
Evergreen Cemetery located in Jacksonville, Florida,
is one of the oldest, still-operating graveyards
in the state.
Shortly after its opening in 1881,
a yellow fever epidemic hit the city hard...
...and over 400 people died from the vicious disease.
A portion of the cemetery was dedicated to these victims,
and while the traumatized bodies
may be laid to rest in the ground,
one paranormal investigator recently found out
some of the spirits could still be lingering above.
I'm literally surrounded by crypts.
In February 2019,
Florida resident and videographer Frank Mendez
set out with his camera to explore Evergreen.
This one is the biggest
and there is some old, old stuff in this graveyard.
My name is Frank and I shot this video.
I've actually been exploring my entire life pretty much.
I only just recently decided to start doing it on camera.
It started off at me exploring abandoned places first,
but as I was exploring these abandoned places,
a lot of creepy stuff would tend to happen.
The cemetery, I thought, would be a good place
to kind of check out, as well, so I decided to go there.
It's getting darker, usually when it gets darker,
that's when things happen, so from here on out,
I would start paying extra close attention to weird anomalies
and things you might hear.
All of a sudden,
Frank heard what sounded like music
coming from a nearby mausoleum.
Oh, give me a freaking break.
That is freaking spooky.
There's like this weird, creepy, Egyptian tomb,
that I was passing by and when you're looking at the tomb,
you would hear this music box going off into the side.
I'm trying to find it, but I don't want to get too close.
Look at the size of this thing.
And then you'd get these cold chills or whatever
and then I actually did a little bit of a walk around there,
I was like alright, I'm gonna head on out of here,
but I could not find that music box.
Hello?
It is sort of eerie hearing the sound
of that music box in a cemetery.
It might be somebody trying to get his attention,
to say, "Hey, take a look over here,
I want to show you that I'm here."
It literally sounded like a legit music box.
I am freaking out.
Frank tried to regain his composure
and figure out his next move.
Oh, my God. This place gives me the creeps.
But before he could do that, he spotted something peering out
from the doorway of the mausoleum.
What is it?
What the is that?
I didn't really pay attention,
until I look at it with the camera, and I'm looking forward,
I'm like, "What is that?"
It's like a black thing.
I thought it was probably like a bird or something,
but when I saw it start to move into the mausoleum...
...that's when I got like goosebumps and I got shivers
and I was like, oh, my God.
Oh, my God! What the is that?
The figure that he saw sort of looks like a shadow figure.
Shadow people are fairly common in paranormal investigations.
They're described in many, many different ways.
A lot of people believe
that they could be demonic energies,
people say that they are inter-dimensional beings,
a lot of people could say
that shadow people are just like the dead,
but what I've noticed about shadow people
and what's evident in this clip
is that there's an intelligence to them.
Shadow people always seem to know you're there.
Frank bravely walked into the tomb
to see if he could figure out exactly what it was he saw.
Hello?
I was ready to run, I was ready to run,
I even was gonna use the camera,
as a weapon if somebody jumped out.
Okay, and it's not even there no more.
Of course it's not even there no more.
Holy!
What he finds out is terrifying.
Not only is the creature missing,
but there is an open tomb
that suggests the creature may have possibly
come from this open tomb.
It's really strange and spooky.
At that point I was just like,
I think this is a little bit too much
because at this point, usually when you stay longer,
while things are happening, more things will tend to happen...
...and once I saw that and there was no explanation for it,
it's time to go, I got to get out of here.
I don't know what I just saw.
It literally was right here.
When it comes to types of activity,
a graveyard is pretty much the general store
of the paranormal, anything can happen,
you'll see shadow forms, you'll hear music.
Oh, give me a freaking break.
You'll see full-bodied apparitions, mists, orbs,
what have you, it's just a ripe playground
for whatever wants to make itself known.
What the is that?
For many, flying on a plane
can bring about a range of emotions.
Some are anxious about the heights or impending turbulence,
others are excited about what awaits
on the other side of the journey.
But for one couple en route to California,
their flight mainly brought about shock and awe
at something otherworldly.
In October 2018, Yanexis Molinos and her husband Joel
were excited for their first trip to the West Coast.
But while on the plane
traveling from Miami to San Francisco,
a bright light out the window caught Joel's attention.
My name is Yanexis Molinos.
We were on our way to San Francisco,
and my husband was looking out the window
and he calls my attention, whispering,
"Hey, look out the window, what do you think that is?"
Well, I couldn't explain what I was looking at,
it was a bright light that became two lights
and then it became three lights
and I was like, "Oh, my God, what is going on?"
I mean, it's definitely not a reflection off the window
or anything like that.
I thought it was just like one bright object,
but I think it turned into two bright lights.
It doesn't seem to fit the normal things one would see
when looking out of the window of a plane.
I've traveled many times
and I like looking out the window all the time,
but I've never in my life seen something like that.
I mean, I understand the sun can be bright,
this and that, but that is not the sun.
It looked like car headlights.
It's kind of hard to tell how big it is
just because it's hard to tell scale
when you're in the sky, so it could be really small,
could be really big and far away,
but it looks pretty supernatural.
You could think maybe it's another plane
taking the same trajectory,
but if it is, it shouldn't be that bright.
The plane was going like one direction
and this one was coming like at a 45 degree angle,
that's when I started to feel a little scared.
We know the FAA has very strict flight plans
for each plane, otherwise they would hit each other
and I'd much prefer that they don't.
So what's it doing up there?
It's definitely in the way of plane traffic,
so that's what makes this so interesting.
Once safely on the ground,
Yanexis decided to post the video online
to see if she could get answers,
but it only led to more questions.
I started sharing our story,
so what we saw, we didn't know what it was
and we started hearing stories
about other people seeing things,
and they told me there was an Area 51.
And then they said it could be, you know,
something that happens around that area.
California and throughout the American Southwest
is I would say probably has the most sightings
of UFOs and lights, unexplainable lights,
than anywhere else in the U.S.
Many offered explanations, everything from solar panels
to light reflections from the sun, but Yanexis disagrees,
none of those match the description
of what she saw that day.
We had I don't know how many stories of what it could be,
but we were really looking at it,
it had to be something flying next to us.
But I do believe what I saw was definitely different,
something I have never in my life seen before,
and I can't explain it.
Coming up...
These friends put a ghostly local legend
to the test in Delaware.
Oh, God!
Down an eerily quiet stretch of road
in Woodland, Delaware, sits a place
known to locals as Maggie's Bridge.
The unassuming structure is connected
to a tragic story of a pregnant woman named Maggie
who lived during the late 19th century.
While she was traveling across the bridge,
Maggie suffered a terrible accident,
where both she and her baby were killed.
Many believe she now haunts this spot, and if called out to,
Maggie will respond by tampering with the car
of those who disturb her.
The legend has intrigued many ghost hunters over the years
and one group recently encountered
the frightening truth.
Oh, God!
In February 2019,
Delaware local, CJ Faison along with his friends,
Omar and Tiffany stopped at Maggie's Bridge.
CJ had grown up hearing this tale,
but had never investigated it.
I've never done this, but in my whole, entire life
here in Delaware that I've lived,
like that's what everyone says,
that you come here, you do this
and you will swear by paranormal.
My name is CJ Faison,
I was one of three people that were there,
and basically if you go to the bridge
and you hold your hand over the top of the bridge
and you'd say "Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby,"
you say that phrase three different times,
some crazy stuff is supposed to happen.
Saying things three times creates this trifecta,
that's supposedly magical.
The act of chanting is really powerful,
so it makes sense that a lot of these urban legends
involve repeating a phrase over and over again.
You have the keys, right?
We're gonna put them on the hood.
You're supposed to put them on the hood at least, so.
Keys on the hood.
As local legend suggests, leaving the keys on the car hood
ensures that the ghost cannot lock them inside.
Here's like what the story is that you have to do,
you hold your hands out like this, both hands out like this
and basically you know, say,
"Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby" three times,
that phrase three times.
- One. - CJ, Omar and Tiffany
held their hands out over the bridge...
- Two. - ...and began the chant.
Three.
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby,
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby,
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby.
But nothing happened.
I was honestly relieved, I'm like, "Okay,
urban legend, not real, it's okay."
I was about to look at Omar and be like, "Alright,
well, look back and let's go," you know what I mean?
There's nothing that's happening with the car,
the keys are still on there.
And then Omar tried again, but this time more forcefully,
while keeping his eyes on both the car and the lake.
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby!
Oh, please, no.
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby!
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby!
He is dumb, that no, Omar, please, no.
A lot of ghost hunters use the method of provoking
to basically anger a ghost
to the point where it's forced to show itself.
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby!
- Oh, please, no. - This can be a dangerous thing
and sometimes downright terrifying.
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby!
I don't think you should be getting aggressive
with anything paranormal
because when you start yelling and raising your voice,
it doesn't really bring out the good energy,
it brings out bad energy, you know what I mean?
Maggie, Maggie, I have your baby!
He is dumb, that no, Omar, please, no.
What?
What?
Off in the distance you hear almost a response.
I couldn't tell what it was saying, but it sounds female.
- You guys heard that? - I'm froze, dude.
- What the hell was that? - I have no idea.
Oh, God!
The scream got my attention.
What?
And then moments later, the car alarm goes off.
- What the hell was that? - I have no idea.
Oh, God!
Then when I looked to my right, just my heart dropped
because you don't know what's going on at that point in time.
You have got to be kidding me.
Yo, there's no way!
They made a point of putting the keys on the hood
so that we know it wasn't him setting the car alarm off.
Once they turned off the alarm, they were thoroughly freaked out
and decided it was time to go,
but quickly realized they couldn't.
Oh,!
- I am dead serious right now. - It's not starting,
it is not starting, 100%, not starting.
Once we got in the car,
he was actually trying to start it up
and I'm thinking to myself, I'm like, "Okay,
I'm in the car business, I know how this works,"
and it was like it had a dead battery.
So finally we had to wait,
we actually had to get a jump start.
- It's seriously not starting? - No.
That's like no joke.
I don't know if like a spirit drew the battery dead,
but obviously the car's battery was dead,
which was odd to me, how is the car battery dead,
when the alarm was just going off,
you know what I mean?
I was like, "Man, this is like getting
like really creepy at this point."
Of course, spirits want to interact with people,
but they can also interact with things around us
and technology is definitely a prime target,
your batteries drain, other things happen,
a car is just a big device,
so a battery drain in a car is not out of the question.
CJ was thankful they eventually
made it out relatively unscathed by Maggie,
but the experience left him
too scared to return and try again.
Looking back at it now, I think about what happened,
but I'm telling you right now, this is real
and I believe it was Maggie 100%.
Oh, God!
You have got to be kidding me.
Coming up...
A phantom athlete makes a run across a football game,
and has belief in a monster called the Rake
actually willed it into existence?
Proud parents often like to preserve
all of their children's achievements on video.
From recording their first steps
to filming their high school sports games,
these days every minor or major event
is well documented throughout a kid's life.
But for one Sylmar, California mom,
the camera may have caught something
other than a treasured adolescent memory.
She may have captured some chilling paranormal activity.
In December, 2013, Anna Dianna was reviewing
old footage she took of her daughter, Mariela Rodriguez
cheerleading at a Sylmar Spartans home game
from the month before
when she noticed something unusual
coming from the right side of the screen.
She couldn't believe what she was seeing
and ran to Mariela to show her.
My name is Mariela Rodriguez
and my Mom is the one who recorded the video.
I was actually the cheerleader
getting thrown in the air in that video.
In the first few times that I actually saw it,
it was like, it's just me cheering, you know,
then after probably the second or third time that I saw it
was when I actually saw the spirit.
It was kind of like a grayish, transparent figure,
and it looks like a blurred out person kind of,
you know, not too transparent, more like translucent,
and no one around was kind of even aware of it.
When you see this apparition run across the field,
it runs right in front of the security guards
and they don't even act like it's there.
And then by the time it gets
to where the cheerleaders are, it pretty much evaporates
before it reaches the other side of the screen.
So the fact that no one around there
looked at the figure
kind of makes it seem like it was a spirit.
The fact that the ghostly figure
wasn't noticed until they played back the video
may also lend more credence to the possibility
that this was something truly otherworldly.
Apparitions and voices, anomalous voices
have been showing up in recording media,
since recording media's been invented.
It's real popular with EVP,
it happens all the time with EVP,
where you don't hear an answer
to a question that you're asking
until you're listening to the recorder later on.
So it's not an uncommon event where somebody is filming
and is able to catch an apparition after the fact.
Mariela explained what made
this particular sighting even stranger
based on the location.
Surrounding this actual field is our track
and around the track, it's all gated.
And during the football games, unless you have a pass,
you're not able to go into the track
or the football field whatsoever.
The gates are always locked,
and where it looks like he was running from
was probably six to seven feet only
from like the gate to the field, and so there is no way
that someone could have gotten that much speed
for it to be blurred out so much.
The fact that there was a game going on
and there was a lot of heightened emotions
and heightened activity,
and the cheerleaders just did a successful routine,
maybe that was the energy
that this particular haunting needed to replay.
It was the spark that gave it the energy it needed
to manifest in that moment.
For some strange reason, schools, universities,
colleges, that kind of thing
seem to harbor a lot of spiritual energies,
a lot of spiritual activity even.
I don't know what the cause for all this is,
but it's certainly some sort of connection there.
Incredibly, Mariela wasn't surprised
or scared by what she saw.
It didn't scare me at all, it was kind of just like, oh,
you know, like it decided to show itself,
so it wasn't scary whatsoever for me, I didn't get any fear.
I have always said that I personally feel
like I do carry spirits, and when I would share my stories,
no one would ever believe me,
so now that it was kind of out there,
it was nice to have people kind of understand
what I see or I go through some days.
The Internet has proved to be a revolutionary and positive
technological development for the world,
but what happens when its powers are used for evil?
In the mid-2000s, stories of a monstrous creature
known as "the Rake" began appearing
on the dark corners of the web.
It was thought to be so dangerous
that anyone that crossed paths with one
would not live to see another day.
Over the years, sightings increased
and many began to wonder, "Does the Rake really exist?"
In 2008, Oregon resident, Kenneth Collins
heard a noise coming from an empty building
at the back of his Portland suburb property.
He grabbed his camera and decided
to go out to investigate.
Geez oh!
Let's get out, come on, come on!
I can only imagine walking into this abandoned building
and seeing something and hearing something like this
coming at you, like where do you go, what do you do?
Geez oh!
Let's get out, come on, come on!
It's a terrifying creature,
it's kind of this state of being a human
but having this weird, sort of animalistic movement,
where you kind of can't place it.
It doesn't move like anything you've seen,
which makes it even more jarring and upsetting.
Geez!
There are tales that we've all seen, that have gone viral
of this horrific creature called the Rake,
and if such a creature were to exist,
this video is exactly what you would expect
the Rake to look like.
The Rake is a relatively new cryptid
in the pantheon of strange, uncategorized creatures.
People have reported that they're pretty limber and nimble
with these short legs and really long arms,
but we don't really know what it does,
I mean, what do Rakes feed on, you know,
what are they descended from, what is their genus?
We have no idea, but there's just been
so many reports of them in recent years
that you certainly have to put it
into that realm of cryptozoology,
that is sort of a science unto itself.
If there are more sightings of this kind of creature,
then it does give a little more credence
to maybe this thing possibly is real
and maybe it reproduces, which is scary.
Geez oh! Let's get out, come on, come on!
The growing frequency of alleged encounters of the Rake
has solidified its reputation
as one of modern society's most terrifying cryptids.
So have we willed this gruesome creature into existence?
You do have to wonder like, "What makes these things real?"
Does the collective unconscious
create these entities in real life
so they can manifest themselves and become visible?
Geez oh!
When a people and when a culture
talks about something enough, a topic is created,
which essentially is something from nothing.
And in paranormal circles, this was famously done
in something called the Philip experiment
where researchers were doing EVP sessions
where they created a character, they created a backstory
and they asked questions of this imaginary figure
and eventually Philip responded.
Kenneth did not stick around to find out
exactly who or what was charging towards him.
Geez oh!
Let's get out, come on, come on!
And this fleeting glimpse
is just another piece of the puzzle
as to whether the Rake may actually be real.
The people in this video made the right choice
by seeing the Rake, turning around, and running.
For any traveler or investigator that comes across
something that you might think is the Rake,
my suggestion would be get out because as this video shows,
the Rake is ready to rip your face off.
Geez oh!
Let's get out, come on, come on!
Coming up...
shocking poltergeist activity terrifies a homeowner.
Oh, my gosh!
When a loved one passes away,
those left behind often attempt to reach out to the departed
for some assurance, even if it's ambiguous,
that they are truly in a better place.
But if you are anything like the U.K.'s Donna Ayres,
you might not have to go all that far out of your way
to make contact with the dead.
Maybe the dead will contact you.
In 2009, Ayres, a resident of Burnley, England
experienced the death of her brother Paul,
someone with whom she had had a troubled relationship.
Almost immediately after Paul's passing,
Donna began to witness unabashed poltergeist activity
happening within her home,
which she blamed on the spirit of Paul.
But she was never able to capture
any of the phenomena on tape.
That is, until the end of 2014...
...when Donna recorded this shocking activity
in her kitchen.
I try to figure out, "How would I stage this,"
and I wouldn't be able to.
We're so close in on it, I think
that if were a string of any kind, it would be evident.
Oh, my God!
Oh.
And then when the spoon just stands up and
sort of dances around...
...I can't figure out how they could've faked that.
But it wasn't just the spoon.
Over the next several weeks, Donna witnessed multiple objects
in her home somehow moving on their own.
It was her flowers.
And her chandelier.
And finally, her tea mug.
I was initially skeptical of these videos,
but if it was one video, it's easy to be skeptical.
Two videos, okay, the evidence is mounting.
Three videos, that's unusual.
It makes you wonder, "What's causing it?"
So it seems that Donna
really was dealing with a haunting.
But the question remains: "Is it her brother?"
And if so, is it possible for a person
to target another person from the afterlife?
There are some hauntings
that attach themselves to people.
We do hear stories, sometimes, of not just a home
being haunted, but having the haunting
actually follow a person.
If you had a problem with a person during their life
if they become an apparition after their death,
I would imagine that person might still have
a sort of unresolved conflict with the living.
But despite Donna and Paul's
acrimonious relationship, some experts think
Paul might be reaching out with good intentions.
I think that him moving these items around is actually
a sign of him saying that everything is okay now.
Not all hauntings are necessarily evil.
Some of them can be sweet.
It might be just simply to say
"Hey", you know, "this has happened. This is me.
Everything is okay.
And I'm just gonna mess with you a little bit."
I certainly would.
Coming up...
An otherworldy attack in an abandoned house.
Oh!!
Professional Vlogging is a recent career path,
only made possible by the rise of the Internet.
While making videos that share
their thoughts and experiences with subscribers,
the most popular personalities can garner
thousands and thousands of followers
as they broadcast their daily life on the web.
And even newer, smaller cameras have allowed them to do that
from pretty much anywhere.
Hey guys! What is going on?
But in 2016, one vlogger
had a terrifying encounter while filming
that his usual audience may not want any part of.
For a new video, YouTube vlogger Dana Thompson
rode out to explore the remains of an abandoned,
partially renovated house in Lake Elsinore, California.
He had explored the empty building once before,
but after hearing rumors of a ghost on the premises,
he decided to check it out again.
As someone who had never had a paranormal experience,
the reports intrigued him.
It's been a long time since I've been over here.
The door is still kicked down over here.
That's actually, like, dangerous.
My name is Dana Thompson.
I was actually the person recording the video.
First time I was there nothing happened.
It was just pretty spooky.
But there was like, a little forum about haunted places
and people were saying
that they spotted, like, some sort of ghost there before.
And I wanted to go back again.
Somebody put, like a, blanket right here.
That's actually, like, extremely sketchy like.
At first, Dana was still skeptical,
but as he made his way through the abandoned house,
things started to happen.
What the was that?
It's a common occurrence that spirits
try to get your attention by
knocking things over, throwing things at you.
What the was that?
that, man.
That was creepy, dawg.
I was like "What the was that?"
Dana dismissed the first noise
and continued filming, until something happened
that he simply could not ignore.
Oh!ing!
It freaked me out. It like echoed within the walls.
It was crazy.
Oh!ing!
It was just this loud bang.
I mean, it was a satellite dish, that's a pretty heavy item.
And so once it hit, like, the concrete ground,
it just echoed throughout the whole entire place.
Upon playback, Dana saw that the object
had been dropped from the open beams above.
Astonishingly, the space from where it fell
was completely open to the roof
with no place for anyone living to be able to stand.
If somebody is throwing something at you,
you're dealing with an apparition
or an intelligent type of spirit.
They're throwing something at you, they know that you're there
and they're trying to let you know
they're there.
Oh!ing!
That was actually my first paranormal experience.
I was scared. I was like, I don't know, it just spooked me,
so I ran out the front door and like, it was just
like what the heck is going on right now.
Oh, I'm getting out of this bitch.
I'm getting out of here.
You never believe anything until it actually happens to you.
And then once it happens to you, it changes your mind on things.
For human beings, when we see a ruin
or an old castle or even just
an abandoned building, or in this case
a construction site that was never completed.
We feel like if people aren't inhabiting it, something must.
You know, I don't necessarily believe
in like, paranormal activity or ghosts or like that,
but I was genuinely freaked out.
I was like, "Uh, . That was weird."
Man, have you seen those movies? I don't want to stick around.
I don't know what's gonna happen to me.
I'm not like the movies where I stay around
and figure it out. I left.
Oh!ing!
Coming up...
A notoriously haunted hotel in Texas.
The Magnolia Hotel in Seguin, Texas,
has gone through many iterations.
Originally built in 1840, it was an outpost
for stagecoaches to stop
as they continued their journey west.
In the 1930s, it was converted into apartments,
but eventually fell into disrepair.
So, when the new owners bought the building in 2013,
they decided to honor the history
and began to restore the rundown rooms
to their frontier day conditions.
But the construction process may have unleashed
a torrent of spirits that had long laid dormant.
The Magnolia Hotel has a very checkered past.
Throughout the whole tail end of the 1800s,
all types of people came and stayed at that hotel.
And I could see that as being a hotbed for haunts
because it's being thrown back into the era
of when it was first built in the 1840s.
You're allowing these spirits or energies
that were there from the traumatic times
of the stagecoach days to relive its past all over again.
Now as they're doing the renovation, I guess the workers
and the people that would visit the location
were having a lot of experiences, and they
were hearing footsteps.
They were hearing people call their names.
Word began to spread in Texas
of the unexplainable events at the hotel
piquing the interest of a local ghost hunting team
who contacted the property's new owners
and asked to investigate the alleged paranormal activity.
My name is Mark Morrow.
My name is Billy Driver.
When we first went down there to meet with them
and to hear the stories, I mean, there was like
this energy of this building that I've never felt.
And you know, as of today, they've accounted
for over 13 spirits in this building
through their research.
The Reading Lady is such a sad story.
And they actually caught an incredible picture
of her leaning out the window.
We were one of the very first teams
to ever investigate the property.
Mark and Billy got to work at the Magnolia Hotel
where they set up stationary cameras
and investigated throughout the building
to see if they could make contact
with one of the ghosts that live there.
And on May 14, 2016, they may have done just that.
Mark was leading a group of fellow curious ghost hunters
through the cellar when their electromagnetic field meters
started going off, alerting them to possible activity
in the room.
Our MEL meters started lighting up, which was indicating
that the electromagnetic energy was changing down there.
It was -- we were getting spikes and people
in the circle, as we formed a circle in the room,
we all were getting the goose bumps.
You know, all of our hair was standing up.
Mark couldn't believe what happened next.
One the women in the group, she kept feeling something
touching her shoulder and like stroking her hair.
As I was talking to her to kind of suss out what was happening,
I suddenly felt the hand that she was describing
come up and touch my shoulder.
I just felt this cold, the weight of a hand touching me.
There is really nothing else like it.
Mark and Billy watched back the footage
to see if they could make out anything that might
have touched Mark's back,
and what they saw surprised them.
We saw this orb that was almost kind of taunting us.
You see it fly behind people. You see it fly behind me.
And then it's like "Okay, I'm done,"
and it just flies up into the ceiling and disappears.
You see that dust floating by, but the orb and the dust
look different. They're at a different speed.
They're going at a different rate.
So, I mean, you know, it definitely makes
it more compelling.
When it comes to any paranormal activity
what a good investigator will look for
is secondary indications.
In this case, someone present felt like something
touched their back.
So, the coincidence of this orb being there at the same time
it might be that, coincidence,
but it also might be that secondary indication.
Could it have been one of the 13 spirits
said to haunt the hotel?
Mark and Billy think it's possible.
So we'll sit down and we'll look at the clip
and we'll review it, and we'll even go back into the room
and see if we can try to debunk it or figure it out.
In regards to these clips, we were not able to debunk them.
It's quite an amazing building and, I mean,
even with the history that it has in central Texas,
I mean, it's, that building is alive.
I mean, it really is.
