As a first responder, we really, really want there to

always be hope. I kept feeling like I was being watched. It

was almost like the house was saying come in if you dare. She

looked like a broken porcelain doll. Help me. And now I'm

seeing her standing here. I saw that this dark shadow. Whatever

this is, it's toying with me. This was a force that I could

not see and it shook me to my core. There's a whole other

world that you nothing about. There was no logical

explanation for what I was looking at. I was terrified.

Please take your emergency.

Nine one1, what's your emergency? I can't It's my

chest. Can you tell me what happened? Something crushing

me. It's crushing my chest. I can't get it all. We're sending

someone right away.

Yup, 10 Fork. The 911 call goes to rookie EMT, Courtney Cooper

and her partner Eric. When I decided to become an EMT, I had

been out of college for about a year. What it is that appealed

to me about the medical field is helping those that can't

help themselves. As a new recruit, Courtney gets the

shifts noone else wants, mostly downtown and always at night

and in this sprawling city that means trying to keep your head

above water. We could run anywhere from 20 to 23 calls in

a 12 hour period. Shootings, stabbings. Lot of things happen

at night. It's just three blocks north. Great. It's a

residential address. We're looking for a house. I see it.

There it is. Chest pain falls can be some of the most

difficult. They could be having a heart attack. Hey, you grab

the defibrillator. I'll grab the pack. Thank you. Got it.

Let's get this. Let's go. The urgency to get to something

that could possibly be a heart attack goes up immensely.

It's open. Hello? Hello, paramedic. Paramedics here?

Responding to a 911 call? Hello. Hello. No sooner inside,

Courtney feels a strange wave of emotions wash over her. My

heart just kind of sunk into my feet. Hello?

There was something very off about this house. Oh, here we

go.

So strong is the feeling Courtney is unable to move any

further. It was the most foreboding feeling I'd had. It

was almost like the house was saying, come in if you dare.

Courtney, she's weak. I'm hardly feeling anything here.

I'm going to plug in.

The feeling I had definitely felt threatening. It stopped me

in my traps.

Let's roll her down. Wanna help me here? What?

Had to take a second to gather myself. Courtney. Oh **** Yeah.

Kinda had to will my myself to go in. Uh here to do a job.

This lady needs our help. Let's flip her on her back. Okay.

I'm not getting anything, ma'am. Seem responsive. Not

getting any breath. Ma'am. She looked like she was having

cardiac arrest. Okay, we're charged. Claire? She comes back

to life without their assistance. Um ma'am? They have

no idea what's wrong with her. Ma'am? Can you hear my voice?

She looked astraught but her coloring was good. Ma'am, my

name is Courtney. I'm a paramedic. Do you know where

you are? Can you hear me? Do you know what happened? Ma'am,

responding to your 911 call. We found you unconscious. We tried

to let her know that we were there to take care of her. We

asked her where she kept her medication so we could check if

she was allergic to anything. Alright, let's get her up here.

Do you remember what happened? Her vitals here. Seemingly

unable to speak, the patient's silence only adds to the

mystery of her condition. I'm going to grab your arm. I need

your arm.

I continued to get her vital signs, blood pressure, pulse

oxymmetry. To the EMTs. Did you take any drugs this afternoon

this evening? The patient seems more terrified than an actual

medical trauma. She seemed to be pretty on edge. I aspire to

saucers. But before she can finish taking her blood

pressure.

I suddenly was pushed over. Eric,

Without really looking up to see where my partner was, I

told him, be careful.

Why did you say that? I felt like he had knocked me over off

my feet. But Eric is a few feet away. Busy reporting back to

the station. Standby. Are you alright? Yeah, yeah. Courtney

is at a loss for answers. This was a force that I could not

see and it shook me to my core.

Checker. So, I gathered my senses about me again and I

went back to getting her vital signs for blood pressure.

And I got knocked over again. Are you alright? My immediate

reaction to being knocked out again was we need to get the

hell out of here. There is something terrible in this

house and it doesn't want us here.

After responding to an emergency call. Claire. To the

home of a woman suffering from chest pains. Emt Courtney

Cooper. Hello. Is knocked down twice by an invisible force.

It freaked me out so bad. I had no idea what had touched me.

Courtney tries to rationalize what just happened. Take over.

Take a sec. It feels to me that she had a malevolent entity

there. There's often a willingness to drive out

anybody who may interfere with the relationship that it has

built with the human. While Eric takes over the

examination, Courtney takes a break.

Noticing the room is filled with religious artifacts and

ancient books. On her table she had what look like decorative

crosses and a large family bible and she had a rosary

It's very odd, not something you see everyday when you walk

into someone's home. Blood pressure is good. While the

patient's 911 call indicated chest pains, the EMTs are

unable to find anything physically wrong with her. Her

EKG reading was totally normal. She didn't present medically as

someone who was ill. And then I noticed something that I will

never forget.

There were a mannequins standing there.

I've never seen anything like that in anyone's home.

I asked her why she had the mannequins in her living room.

Did you design them yourself? At long last, the patient

finally speaks. They were my grandmother's She told us her

family happened to be dress makers back in the day.

They were a small family-owned business and she kept them as

heirlooms.

And then I noticed something that will haunt my dreams for

the rest of my life.

One of the mannequins has moved toward her. The mannequin was

now completely facing me.

There was no logical explanation for what I was

looking at. There's no reason why that mannequin should have

been turned at all.

I knew my partner was not messing with these mannequins

because he cannot move that fast. So, something was moving

this mannequin and it was not him. She stabilized. We're

going to be moving her soon. Sometimes what we'll see in

negative entity cases is that they will actually use objects

to intimidate. You gotta get out of here. What ends up

happening is that the entity becomes extremely territorial

over the space or the person and probably the paramedics

coming in threaten that territory. And now, they seem

to be showing them the way out. Eric, did you not shut the door

when we came in? Wow, Said you not shut the door when we came

in. Uh The other fear that something uninvited is moving

in and out. The feeling that I had that was forbidding me to

go in, it all started kind of crashing down on me. Ma'am, do

you live alone? Yes. Are you sure you let noone in the

house? I didn't let anyone in. No one else came to the door

before you called nine one one. No. I decided to start looking

through the house.

And came across no living human being. Come back down the

hallway

the mannequin is now facing towards me as I'm walking out

of the hallway. It's out of me. Negative entity will move

objects, position them into different places to frighten

the perceiver into feeling like they're out of control. Here,

we gotta get out of here. That was the most freaked out I've

ever been in my entire life. Ma'am, are you going to stand?

Wasn't that mannequin? That was the one that was over there. I

don't know what's going on. Ma'am, we're going to take you

to the hospital now. We need to package her up and we need to

leave. We're going to we're going to get you out of here.

We're going to take you to the ambulance. And I said just come

on, let's go.

Okay, nice and steady. Easy does it. I feel like this force

wanted her to stay.

There was something possessed in that house. To this day,

those mannequins haunt my dreams.

Whatever dark force was in that house tried to take over her

possessions was definitely tried to take over her and I

think that was more than likely contributing to the downfall of

her health.

Infernalis adversari moments led you. Prayer is often

considered a meditation. However, if we get a situation

where somebody is praying from a fearful state of being,

that's not achieving the end game which is to feel better.

Infenalis adversari omnislegio. Perogamos Aldinos. Infernalis

adversaries omnislegio. So if you're attacking something from

any sort of state of fear, that's never going to end well.

Infernali, adversari, omnislegio. Inversari

arberdari. Invergamo Aldinos. Infernali adversari omnislegio.

That call happened 11 years ago but it is stuck with me more

than any car accident, stabbing, shooting, more than

anything because I'm now more aware that these presences

exist, that they are out there, that they're real and It scare

**** out of me because there's nothing I can do about it.

These are not people that I can help. These are not people I

can save.

Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. Nine one1, what's your

emergency? Yeah. I I I hit someone with my truck. How many

vehicles were involved in a collision? She she was on a

motorcycle. It's really bad. What is your location? The dead

man's band near the bridge. The 911 call goes to the EMT

nearest to the accident. Corredwin Alexander who's only

been on the job a few short months. The nature of the call

that I got was that it was a motor vehicle accident, a

tractor trailer versus motorcycle, unknown number of

casualties. Alexander is part of a remote crew of first

responders. We're a small department, transport ton from

town are quite long. You can be waiting around for an ambulance

for 30 minutes on a good day. Because the accident was

between the station and myself, I thought I'm just going to

grab my own vehicle and go. I had been an EMT for about 9

months. Really this was only the first few months of me

being cut loose on my own.

I call in the dispatch and I say I am the first here so I'm

going to try to secure the scene.

We did not have a lot of information partly because

where the accident was, it was a radio dead cell.

When I got there, all I could see was the truck. And then I

saw that primary witness the driver of the truck. Sir? Are

you alright? Sir are you okay? Are you the only one here? Yet

no. When we're surveying the scene were trained listen to

what people are saying. You don't even need to ask them

usually they'll tell you. There is only one person. Are you the

only one here? Yes. When people have accidents, when they are

traumatized, they will very often be confused. Yes. It's a

function of shock. She's in the back. She's in the front. Just

take a few deep breaths. Helps on its way.

It was not very clear where my patient was So I slid under

there.

And I found my patient.

I have this sinking feeling.

It suddenly comes into focus how mangled she is. She looked

like a broken porcelain doll.

No EMT wants to be the one who pronounces somebody on the

scene. We hate doing that. For the rookie EMT, it's baptism by

fire. Up until this point in my career, I had seen bodies that

had died of natural causes. This was the first traumatic

death.

As I'm getting ready to go up and notify dispatch.

I see boots on the other side of the truck.

And I kind of and I don't see anyone.

And I started hearing this voice. I shouldn't have done

that.

Sir, was there only one person?

Can't see me like this. I shouldn't have done that. Help

me.

You can't see me like this.

My brother's going to be so mad at me. I was terrified because

I'm seeing her standing here. I shouldn't have talked to her.

Emt Corredwin Alexander is called to a remote stretch of

highway where she discovers a young woman killed on impact

but moments later to Alexander's horror. She finds

the victim has risen from the dead. You're so mad you can't

see me like this. And then vanishes into thin air. Now,

I'm having this moment of That couldn't have been real what I

just saw.

In very high impact sudden deaths where the spirit is just

kind of ejected from the body very quickly. The spirit is

immediately put into a state of shock and and disbelief. Uh we

have so many reports of people kind of hovering over their

body and watching everything that happens.

I was focused on doing what is the next correct thing to do

because if I thought beyond that next step, I was going to

lose it.

You can't see me like this.

I should have done that. The dead woman reappears a few feet

away.

She was confused. She didn't understand what happened. She

kept saying the same set of things. I came around that

corner too fast. I knew I came around that corner too fast.

Kept saying, don't let my brother see me. My brother's

going to be so mad at me. Oh, don't let my brother see this.

Oh my god, it's going to upset him so much. I shouldn't have

done that. She says, oh god, don't leave me and she was

really frightened. My brother's going to be so mad at me. She

didn't want to be alone. Even to talk about it makes all the

hair on my arms stand up. It was more than a feeling of

being watched. I I really felt she wanted to interact with me.

I think there was just so much energy expended during this

very high impact, very traumatic and sudden death.

Was really easy to pick up on a presence there.

My brother's going to be so mad. It allowed a state in

which the spirit could easily communicate with her, first

responder. Suddenly, the chief arrives, everybody seems to

roll up all at once. Hey, you okay? Uh yes, sir. We have a

fatality. Okay. The driver? Uh he's okay. I spoke with him.

Okay. Um a woman. Could you come look at the body with me?

Okay.

Did everything he could. Everybody's first trauma

fatality. They always do remember it. It always looms

very large in their lives. What does that mean? Huh? What does

that mean, sir? Let me get through. Sir, let me what does

that mean, sir? That's my sister's bike. I gotta go.

Drawn by the commotion. A local man rushes the scene. That's my

sister's vice go. Okay, sir. Sir. Sir. It's the victim's

brother. And he heard me say fatality and This visceral moan

came out of his throat.

Seeing her brother for the last time. The ghost disappears for

good.

It's going to be okay. We'll get you out of here soon. When

you're confronted with evidence that goes against your whole

belief system, it's really, really terrifying. It's like

discovering that there's a whole other world that you do

nothing about. Help me. I still dream about it from time to

time. It still has a lot of emotional weight but I know I'm

going to dream about it tonight.

One one, what is your emergency? Someone is in my

house. What is your address? 128 Oak Avenue Now, listen to

me. I want you to leave your house immediately. Step outside

and stay within view of your neighbors. Police will be

arriving shortly. Please hurry.

14 year police veteran Eddie Hill races to a nine one1 call

for a possible home invasion.

Once a dispatcher told me that it was an elderly lady that

called, the whole thing that kept running through my mind

was, is she hurt? What's the potential for her getting hurt?

I was going into a potentially dangerous situation. This isn't

something you can just run up to and take care of in five

minutes and you're gone. This is something that you really

have to think through because people lives are at stake. You

don't know what's going to happen.

As I get out of my patrol car and I saw this really nice,

fragile little old lady. Afternoon, ma'am. If there's a

stranger in my house, in my attic. She started telling me

that there was people walking around inside her attic. So, I

kind of thought that was a little bit strange. Normally,

when we receive a call on a burglar, there's somebody

within the house itself, not in the attic. So I kind of

question her a little bit if you know her husband was home

and she said that he had passed and she lived by herself.

After hearing that, I asked her, could this be a raccoon?

Could this be a squirrel? Could this be a rat?

I started kind of feeling more like there may not be as much

threat as she had thought.

Suddenly, I heard these footsteps.

And I thought, well, it's not a raccoon, it's not a possum, it

was not an animal that was walking on all fours.

Whatever was walking around in that attic was walking around

on two feet.

A dark attic with many hiding spots is a dangerous place for

a police officer working alone.

In our particular department, we ended up handling calls a

lot on our own. Mainly due to the shortage of manpower. You

pretty much had to take care of business on your own.

My frame of mind was that there's somebody up there

trying to hide from me and had told her not to say anything

and had maybe threatened her. You have no idea where these

people are. If they're watching you, if they're about to ambush

you, if something's going to go wrong and could be life

threatening.

I kept feeling like I was being watched. I kept feeling like

someone was watching me.

Although I've looked all over this place and I didn't see

anything.

Again, he hears footsteps. Like somebody walking with work

boots.

And I'm looking around, I see nothing. But I can hear it. I

can hear that there's something. It left me with a

very uneasy feeling.

I started thinking, well, maybe it was the house shifting or

maybe it was my imagination or maybe there was just some

critter up there and it just sounded like it was a big

person moving. With no clear explanation for what he heard

or felt, the officer heads back down.

What did you tell the old woman? I told the old lady at

first that I could not find anything out of the ordinary

that everything looked okay. I thought the next thing I should

do was stay with her for a little bit and talk to her and

basically try and put her more at ease. The more I spoke to

her, the more I started getting a sense that she was more

lonely than anything and it almost got to the point where I

felt that maybe she just wants attention, maybe she just needs

somebody to talk to.

And that's when I saw this dark shadow. This wasn't an ordinary

shadow. It was very obvious that this wasn't being cast

from somebody.

And that scared

After responding to a home invasion call, Texas Police

Officer Eddie Hill finds no intruder.

Until he is stalked by a mysterious black shadow.

Whatever it was I was looking at was not of this world. Bound

to protect, the officer races towards the mysterious figure.

I immediately went outside and I started looking around the

area and I started checking in some of the areas that I

thought somebody could possibly be hidden.

There was nothing moved. There was nothing out of the

ordinary. There was nothing that drew my attention. I

couldn't put a body to any of these noises. I couldn't put an

explanation to the shadow I was seeing and I started

questioning whether I actually saw it or not. Someone such as

a police officer, someone who has a very analytical mind, a

very objective mind, they're looking for real-life human

beings and when they come across something that is just

so out of the ordinary, that's something that could really

startle somebody and start having them question

themselves.

I all of a sudden start hearing these footsteps again. I was

just up there and I didn't see anything and now I'm I'm

hearing these noises. I have no idea what's going on at this

time.

Are you making a connection perhaps with the shadow? I

didn't know at the time whether this was related to what was

going on or if this was something totally separate.

Officer Hill goes back upstairs but this time, alone. I wasn't

feeling that it was safe in that house any longer because

of those footsteps. And I was very, very cautious at that

point.

As I'm looking around with the flashlight, I saw a dark shadow

move across.

And then all of a sudden it just was gone. I almost

couldn't believe that I was looking at this. So I had to

stop and actually question myself, what did I just see?

What was this thing?

And again, low and behold, I started hearing these

footsteps.

For the officer, it starts to feel personal. Whatever this

is, it's toying with me. It has to be. This can't be my

imagination.

And as I'm looking around, I see the shadow again.

I suddenly saw that it had a face. And it took everything I

had not to pull the trigger to be honest.

And it was just gone.

It was just, it was just vanished history. When I saw

that, the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. I was

terrified. Seeing no further trace of the strange figure.

The officer feels the burden of having no clearer explanation

to share other than it's gone and it made me feel bad because

I really, really, really wanted to help her and I really wanted

to put her at ease. So, I didn't know exactly what to say

or do to do that. Who's this? My husband. Isn't he handsome?

I miss him so much.

Suddenly, the photo brings the terrifying apparition into

clear focus. This face was the same face that I just saw

moments earlier.

The face of the shadow I will see was the face of her dead

husband. When people die, if they have a loved one that they

are extremely attached to. Uh maybe they're not ready to

leave them. Uh sometimes their partner will stick around with

the thought that when the other person dies, they'll be there

to meet them and they can cross over to where they're going

together as a couple. Don't worry, ma'am. I think

everything is going to be just fine. Thank you. I The

revelation finally puts the officer at ease.

Thank you so much. It's my pleasure, ma'am.

I believe this to be her dead husband that is there to

protect her, that's there to watch over her.

And possibly there to one day take her home with them.

I think the paranormal experience I had opened my eyes

and my mind up a lot more than what it was. I think there are

many things that happened that we can't explain that maybe 1

day we will.
