It feels like something's strangling me!

Experiencing the best...

That was awesome, dude. That was so awesome.

...And worst...

...Of the places between worlds.

I want the portals of this forest wide open.

Now it's time to look back.

One of my scariest nightmares that we are about to relive.

For the first time ever,

I'm inviting you, the audience, into my inner sanctum.

Together, we will pull back the curtain

On the biggest, scariest, and funniest moments

From our investigations.

I'm zak baggins, and this is

"ghost adventures: Screaming room."

You guys want to watch a scary movie?

-Yeah, what do you got? -Yeah.

-Let's watch goatman's bridge. -Oh, [bleep]

-You all right, jay? -Yeah. Yeah. I mean...

-That's a big one for you. -...Not looking forward to it.

Jay: But let's play it.

Zak: We are in the heart of texas

Headed towards our most dangerous investigation yet.

You guys ever heard of the pentagram of blood?

-Yeah, I've heard of that. -You've heard of that?

-Oh, yeah. -It's a pentagram.

When you draw it over the united states,

It hits parts of mexico and canada, too.

Cities and towns all along the lines of the pentagram --

They mark areas of natural disasters,

Tragedies, mass casualties. Oh, wow.

It went through dallas, where jfk was assassinated. Right.

It went through waco, texas,

Where the whole david koresh waco massacre happened.

It even goes up through the oklahoma city bombing area.

I never knew about this, jay -- the pentagram of blood.

There's gotta be something to it.

I mean, so many places just have like these --

Natural disasters, killings.

That line is also passing through the location

That we're headed to next.

-Wow. -Oh, man.

Why is my hair sticking up so bad in the back?

Yes, I do sit here and watch myself

And critique the heck out of myself.

Why is that hair out of place?

This is it.

♪♪

[ grunts ] ah!

Spirits of goatman's forest, goatman's bridge,

We hope you welcome us.

♪♪

-Oh, my god. It's goatman's! -He was a gangster.

Oh, this place was insane.

Something in this forest

Is gonna greet us when that sun goes down.

You could feel it when you walked in it.

There was nothing good in this for us.

-No. -You can still feel it.

Okay. Right now we are standing

At the entrance of goatman's bridge.

This bridge was the center point

For something that you saw with your own eyes.

Yes, it was very late at night

Between probably 2:00 and 3:00.

We were doing an evp session in the center of the bridge,

And I kept seeing something out of the corner of my eye

Coming through the thicket of the woods.

-Over there. -Yes.

You couldn't help but stare at the face.

Because it had a goat head on it,

Horns wrapped around the front of his head.

-He was great. -Are you serious?

-Really? Oh. -Do you have to crinkle so much?

Can barely hear it.

You know I have that condition

That's, like, called misophonia or something.

-[ crunches loudly ] -why would you even do that?

-[ laughs ] -why is that even...?

You got your snacks and a bowl right here.

Ever since I was little, I've had this thing

Where crunching sounds or bags --

It's a weird thing. And we torment, you don't we?

-You do. -We're training you to be...

It's, like, borderline harassment.

If we do it, you'll get used to it

And be over it. We're helping you.

Zak: According to legend, in the 1930s

There was a black man named oscar washburn

Who was a prosperous goat herder.

Hey, bill, goat herder.

Let's make an announcement everybody.

There is a goat herder amongst my theater.

[ laughter ]

Billy, do you own goats?

I recently adopted and rescued a family of goats.

Okay. Did this show inspire that?

I don't think so. I hope not.

-That guy has goats. -I do.

-That's great. -Baaaaaaaaa!

Do you hear that all day? Baaaaaaaa!

-Only when they're hungry. -The neighbors hate you.

[ laughter ]

Zak: He placed a sign at the foot of the old alton bridge

That enraged the local ku klux klan.

In the dark of the night,

They lynched oscar on that very same bridge.

I'll say when they were doing those reenactments,

The people in the town were freaking out.

-Oh, yeah. -That's right.

-Like something was going on... -That's right.

When we when we film our stuff, we have we have another crew

That films the reenactments.

And they re-created that reenactment

And got all these calls from the police.

Can you imagine seeing...

They saw a bunch of hooded people

On a bridge with a fire.

-Right. -Be terrifying.

Zak: There are those who believe that oscar now haunts

The woods in a half-man-half-goat form.

Whether a vengeful spirit or something more,

There's no doubt that when the sun goes down,

These woods come alive.

Do you believe the satanic worshippers that come here

Are conjuring demons in this forest?

Oh, absolutely.

Zak: One evening, belynda and a group of friends

Witnessed something disturbing in this forest.

The group ended up walking down this trail,

And I just had a very uneasy feeling about doing that.

And so I ended up staying up at the fence by myself.

I started hearing a bunch of rustling behind me.

I knew something was there.

Terrified and in complete panic,

Belynda took a photo when she felt this presence,

And in the picture appeared a black cloaked figure.

About that time, my arm was burning.

I looked down, and I had three marks

That started at a point on this part of my wrist

And went all the way up to my elbow in three marks.

Oh, my gosh.

Imagine how many people have had these experiences

And just never said anything.

-Hello. -Hi.

-I'm zak. -I'm phoebe.

-Nice to meet you. -Nice to meet you.

So I hear that you didn't have

A very pleasant experience in the forest here.

We were all standing in a circle

Asking the spirits not to follow us home.

And I hunched forward, and I thought,

"I just got bit by a spider," 'cause it burned, burned,

Burned.

I mean, it burned so bad. Lifted my shirt up.

I had three long scratches that started from the top

And then webbed out at the bottom.

What happened after you noticed the scratches?

I wasn't in control of myself.

I was not in control of my feelings, my emotions,

Almost to the point

Where I wasn't in control of my body.

Zak, I wanted to turn around and punch everybody.

And you wanted to just attack people.

I wanted to just go "brum!" and just whack 'em all down.

Yeah. -With what?

My fist.

It's already giving me chills, just...

[ laughing ] I know

Zak: I sense that phoebe is holding something back.

Is that all you wanted to do? You just wanted to punch 'em?

Yes. That's all I'm gonna say.

I need to hear the truth. Did you want to kill 'em?

Yes. Absolutely.

You just wanted to kill them with your hands?

Yes, with my bare hands.

Did you have visions of doing this?

Yes.

All right. You all right?

Yeah, I'm okay.

Mm. A little shaken, a little bit shaken up...

-All right. Okay. -...Just memories.

Zak: Jay, does this investigation bother you?

Whatever we encountered here, this is one location

That I feel still has a piece really attached to me.

-Jake did. -Jake?

How you doing, buddy? I'm zak.

I love this

Because I wasn't planning on interviewing her son,

But he was standing off camera, and I wanted his take on this.

She was just not acting herself.

She just acted extremely weird, like something was in her.

Were you scared for your mom?

Yes, I was.

In that impromptu interview,

He didn't hesitate to give me those answers,

Which justified her testimony.

Zak: And stranger still, the same name keeps appearing.

And we ask who that was, and he told us it was steve.

At the time, we were communicating with

I believe his name is steve.

We kept getting this name on our evps about steve.

A lot of demons will give you, like, a human name

Just to try to trick you.

-She wanted to kill me here. -Yeah. Look at it.

Look at that look. -Ash.

Wow.

You've been given pure looks of evil, like, in your eyes.

This was disturbing.

And, jay, I know this is probably hard for you to watch.

Like, I don't like watching this one just 'cause

It was definitely a catalyst that put things in motion

That, over a course, of time

Just never got any better after this

And ultimately led to our divorce.

Zak: At this point, I'm extremely concerned for ashley.

I ask the ladies that I interviewed

Who have experienced this before

To come over and help her through this.

This has never happened to her. -Yeah.

And it felt bad, you know, because, one,

She was my wife at the time, and for you guys,

I know she was probably like a sister. Yeah.

And to see, like, part of our family go through that,

You know, like, it was scary.

-Are you just feeling sad or... -Anger.

And it just -- emotion hit me, like this.

And this is kind of difficult to watch

'cause I know what this led to with jay and with us.

Just keep fighting it. Just know that it's not you.

It's something that's trying to take over your emotions,

And you're not gonna let it.

Ashley -- this is the last episode she ever worked on.

-That's right. -And she loved it, too.

You know? It was a hard decision.

I remember her talking about it.

We didn't expect this.

I mean, ultimately, it's probably good she left,

In a way 'cause if she wasn't able to step away from it,

Who knows how much it would have taken over?

I didn't want her back at this site after this day.

-No. -But she demanded to come back.

Yeah. That's I'm saying -- she was tough.

I was mad right here.

Zak: This is your way of getting at us,

Taking the only woman on our crew

And breaking her down?

I was extremely pissed.

You prey upon women. You attack them.

This is what you do?

Whatever you are, you're a coward.

That's all that you are.

I knew right then and there that, like,

What these women were telling us --

This is really real, you know?

And I don't think any of us

Had any idea where this was gonna go. No.

As you all remember, we had a rather disturbing moment

While we were filming here yesterday.

Ashley, something happened to you in the forest

In the years that I have known you,

I've never seen you affected like that ever.

You okay watching this, jay?

[ exhales ] yeah.

No, I mean, it's -- I think it's important to watch.

It was a terrible experience.

It was a terrible part of my life for a while,

But I don't want to forget this.

And you can learn from these things, you know?

You can learn to better yourself.

You can learn to evolve.

Before you went back to the hotel,

What did you tell me in the bus?

I wanted to face it.

Some people watch our show and think,

"oh, it's just a tv show."

This is our life. Like, we dedicate our lives.

These things affect our lives on a daily basis.

We are investigators.

We need evidence to close our case.

That is why we're here --

To see if all of these demons,

Or whatever evil spirits are in here, are real.

-Mm. -[ exhales ]

Truly an adventure.

Zak: In order to investigate from the water,

Billy will navigate hickory creek

Deep into the forest.

Zak: Billy, you be careful, man.

I'm telling you, you're gonna be out of range

Of our walkie talkies, and I don't think

There's cellphone service that far in the forest.

I don't want to say I was hoping you would fall in,

But I was kind of hoping you'd fall in.

I'm pretty sure you were hoping.

-Wow, jay. -It would've been hilarious.

-Jay, that was, yeah. -That would have been good tv.

-I was hoping that -- -look at that, look at that.

I almost fell right there.

I literally almost fell. -There!

-Right there, right there. -[ laughs ]

Almost went in.

And those waters are infested with fricking water moccasins.

Zak: It is now time for ashley to attempt to confront

Whatever it was that took control of her emotions

During our interviews.

-I can't believe she did that. -No.

I don't know if we should have let her do this.

Zak: As she enters this evil black abyss all by herself,

We will be monitoring her very closely

From this mobile nerve center...

-Can you tell I was nervous? -Mm-hmm.

Zak: ...Watching with our cameras

But not close enough to provide protection.

She's probably one of the toughest girls I know, you know?

I just still can't believe that, like, this --

This is the last episode that she did.

Ah!

I hope you guys yell if you see something

'cause I don't know if it's brush or a bear.

Are there bears here? I don't think so. Okay.

This a classic scene out of a horror movie. Right.

I have no idea where I'm going right now.

The disturbing experience ashley had earlier was for her

As she begins to aggressively confront this entity.

Ashley: You can't possess me anymore!

I'm not afraid of you!

That's when I wanted to get out of the bus.

She started seeing things in the woods here. Yeah.

I was just any minute ready to just run at her

And get her out of there.

Something hits her, too, right?

I thought she just tripped.

Yeah, you can kind of hear something.

A distant gunshot in the woods,

And it's much louder and closer to ashley.

Ashley: What is that?

-Billy, come in. -Go for billy.

Zak: Did you hear a gunshot out by you, or no?

Actually, I did hear it -- one loud gunshot.

Oh, the sound of that.

Oh, man, I'm getting anxiety just watching this.

[ laughing ] this is a tough one.

Zak: We are very curious to know

Where this unexplained gunshot came from.

Right as we are about to radio ashley

To come back to base,

Something makes its presence known to her

Both audibly and visually.

Ashley: Why are you doing this to people?

Is there something I need to know?

Look at!

Aah!

-What was that? -I don't know.

Ashley: Can you hear...

Listen.

Ashley: Is there something I need to know?

Aah!

Zak: Soon after ashley freaks out

From hearing something growl at her,

She amazingly stands her ground and remains in the woods,

At which time she begins seeing

This very oddly shaped glowing anomaly.

That's crazy.

-What is that? -She saw that with her own eyes.

Ashley: Yeah. There's, like, a weird light.

I don't know how to explain it.

It was just weird light right over there.

And it's not there anymore.

Who are you?

She's still there.

I can't believe she hung in there

After that hit to her head.

-Right? -That dropped her.

Zak: When ashley returns to base,

We notice a swollen welt on the side of her face

Where earlier she felt

This unseen force knock her to the ground.

-Holy crap. -Right?

Zak: Ashley, who has been our still photographer

On "ghost adventures" for years

Sadly had to quit the show after suffering

A very serious attachment that she is still dealing with today.

Damn.

Yeah, that's still a sore one, huh?

Well, I like to say from everything I've heard --

I haven't talked her in a while, but she's doing okay.

-Are you doing okay?

Yeah, I mean, right now it's sad to see all this,

But I'm in a much better place now.

It was a tough few years, honestly, after all this.

But, you know, persevered pushed through.

Zak: After seeing the female member of our crew

Physically marked and in pain,

Our suspicions of these woods and bridge being haunted

By an evil creature are quickly becoming a reality.

As billy finally returns, it is now time for us

To enter the woods and hunt down this entity.

At this point, I was more scared

About the snakes than I was the demons.

Oh, yeah. What's your biggest fear?

Snakes.

We're going to watch each other's backs.

Worst part about that

Jay, you want to go try to conjure him?

I was just thinking that. Stir it up.

I kind of blame you still, jay, for this.

You blame him?

I was completely against the ritual.

I didn't want anything to do with that.

Jay: I was doing a lot of research

Because of everything that's been going on.

I wanted to see what we're dealing with.

And I found this ancient text that has a step-by-step process

On how to banish demons.

I've never done this before,

And I don't recommend anyone ever doing this.

It's not satanic. It's nothing like that.

Because of the intensity,

That's the only reason I want to try this,

Because whatever is here is ancient, it's powerful,

And I think fighting fire with fire

Might actually work on this thing.

A lot of investigators in the paranormal field --

They're just so equipment-based, I think.

And we like to really go kind of deeper into experimenting,

And I think that rituals and things like that,

We're open to try it.

Aaron: What is this, jay? Did you draw that.

Jay: I did. This is an ancient seal.

Basically, I'm conjuring three demons,

And because I have this seal, in the way I do the ritual,

These three demons will listen to me.

If you mess up one little thing

What's gonna happen?

It'd be really, really bad for me.

It could be psychological.

It could be haunted for the rest of my life.

-I can't do this. -What if I'm done, too?

Aaron: Someone's got to finish the ritual with jay,

And I'm not sticking around.

Zak: This is how it usually starts.

When a demon is present,

They will try to turn you against... Each other.

...The others around you that you trust.

It breaks you apart,

And once you've broke that from each other...

-Yeah. -...It keeps feeding.

Please don't abandon me, guys.

-That's not... -We're either...

-Bill, just stay, dude. -Thanks.

Aaron: No, I'm just saying we're not leaving too far.

We're right above the bridge, if anything.

I wasn't either.

I wasn't either, dude.

Sorry, bill.

Dude, I was so frustrated because jay wanted me

To come in the circle,

And I didn't want anything to do with it.

That was bad.

Zak: Something's not right. We all feel fear.

We are turning on each other.

Jay seems affected by something

And doesn't want to leave the circle.

I've had enough, and as I walk over the bridge,

Billy follows me, and something very bizarre happens.

Aaron: Be safe, zak.

Well...

Ah! Oh, my god, you guys!

-That's when the fire just... -Right.

...Like, literally put itself out.

-Zak, bill! -What?

Aaron: When zak walked over, the fire went out.

-No, it didn't. -I swear to god.

And when he walked past, it went back up.

Geez. That's right! -When we walked over.

Oh, god. How crazy was that?

-He said when you walked... -Are you serious?

Aaron: I'm dead serious.

You guys need to come in the circle.

You guys need to get back down here, man.

It's a bad idea to be up there.

I mean, honestly, the circle was the safe spot.

I mean, you're the one opening the door, jay. Yeah.

Zak: As aaron begins to show a tremendous amount of fear,

He finally convinces jay to leave the circle

And join billy and myself up on the bridge.

Aaron has no idea of the consequences

That this decision will have on him.

All right, so what we're about ready to see right now

Is one of the most disturbing moments for aaron and I

Ever since we've done these investigations, ever.

♪♪

-You all right? -Ah!

Zak: What happened?

Billy: I'm coming! Where are you at?

-Ah, my leg! -What was that?

Aaron: Ah! Something hit me, man.

No. No.

Whoa, dude!

Dude, when you came up to me,

I was, like, kind of, like -- I was like, "whoa, whoa!"

'cause I didn't trust what was in front of me.

It was you, but it looked like something else.

Look. This is where I was, right here.

All I remember -- a black shadow

Came through that little opening way.

And next thing you know, I got hit,

And I'm on the ground.

I just thought I fell backwards. I was so disoriented.

It was like I came back from another planet

All of a sudden. It was so weird.

Zak: Something unseen picked aaron up

And threw him this distance.

[bleep]

-I'm going to regular vision. -Ah! Bro.

Zak: How did you hit the ground so hard?

-I can't see you. -What's wrong with you?

What's wrong with your face? -You're, like...

What's wrong with his eyes? Dude, did you see his eyes?

Can we see your arm? Are you okay?

My whole arm right here was just cut up.

Aaron: I'm bleeding everywhere, dude.

I can feel the blood just gushing out of me.

Honestly, it felt like this black mass just hit me,

And I was just like, "whoa!"

And then next thing you know, I'm all the way back, dude.

Zak: This is also the exact same spot

Where earlier we captured the glowing eyes

That had no body,

And they were guarding the entrance to the forest.

There was just no way that those eyes could have been

An animal, like a cougar or something like that.

-No, you would have seen it. -It was right in front of us.

This is the entrance.

It looks like a cave entrance is right here.

As soon as he approached this is when you were right here

Because your camera light's right there, aaron.

You landed 20 feet back there.

-I'm so -- dude. -Let me see your arm.

You okay? -I'm shook up.

That's crazy.

It's amazing that any of our cameras survive.

I know.

♪♪

♪♪

You know what's crazy? This thing is, like --

The ritual I did wasn't satanic.

It was an ancient ritual to, yes, summon a demon,

But it wasn't in a satanic --

Aaron: Well, the demon showed up.

Then what happens right after we do it?

You draw blood, and now your blood's in the ground.

Oh, my god.

So it's almost like it's turning the ritual

Into more of a satanic, darker thing.

Zak: Aaron has been physically attacked

On the goatman's bridge.

You okay. -I'm shook up.

-You all right? -I couldn't see you.

All you looked like was at blur,

And your light wasn't on, and I was just like --

I was, like -- I felt like I got knocked out

And I was confused of where I was for a moment.

The time you guys got up and I stood up,

And then you came up to me.

I still wasn't, like -- I was wasn't there.

-God! -You were out of it, dude.

I thought -- I don't know where I was.

Let me see your arm, dude. Hold it up.

-Oh, god. -Oh, my god, aaron.

-Wow. -Something just hit me, man.

-You all right? -I flew back.

-You all right? -I'm okay. I don't know why.

I don't know why when you come near me

I kind of get real defensive.

It's weird. Ah!

Zak: We now try to get aaron back to base camp,

But as we are crossing the bridge,

He suddenly shuts down.

This is a tough moment here. -Yeah.

Dude, I feel like I'm gonna black out.

I'm just getting all this, like, oxygen in me.

-I was completely fine... -Yeah.

-...Up until this point. -Yeah.

But it felt like every time aaron got affected,

And then he went down,

Whatever it was in him came to me.

I swear to god, I just saw in my brain

Or there -- it was.

That's what I saw behind.

It was, like, a really tall figure, right?

I'm losing all my energy, man.

-You all right? -Oh.

I had all that energy,

And now I'm losing it.

I'm gonna black out, bro.

-See? There it is. -And aaron goes down.

From him to you.

It came to me right when you dropped.

-Yeah. -Back and forth between us.

-Oh, god. -Why do you keep --

What are you doing. -I don't know!

Stop!

I couldn't stop grabbing my throat.

-Stop, zak, stop. -Stop, stop.

Billy: Let go of yourself. Let go of your hand.

Let go of your neck. -Stop!

Like, you were digging your thumbs in,

And I was worried, man.

I don't like watching this at all.

It feels like something's strangling me!

Let go. Zak, let go of your neck.

Stop it. Zak.

Zak, stop, bro!

-Aaaaaah! -Stop, stop, stop, stop!

I couldn't control my hands. I couldn't control my arms.

-Zak, let go of your neck. -Help me, bro!

-Zak, let go of your neck. -He's not letting go.

No, stop, stop, stop.

[ zak whimpering ]

Hey, hey, hey, hey! Zak, zak!

Stop, stop! Zak!

Zak! -It's jay!

-Stop! -Whoa.

Zak!

Man, you guys were, like, fighting.

There was almost, like, nothing we could do

To even stop him from doing that.

I was just trying to stop him from killing himself.

It just got stronger and stronger

And stronger and stronger, and my arms were just so tight.

I felt like it could take 10 guys

To try to get my arms away from my throat,

And you wouldn't be able to do it.

Billy: Breathe. Just breathe, dude.

Breathe, breathe.

[ zak breathing deeply ]

♪♪

God!

Oh! You were gouging your own throat.

Why were you doing that?

We couldn't stop you.

This is really, like --

That's uncomfortable to watch again, you know?

He just kept grabbing his throat like this

And digging his fingers in his own throat

And saying he couldn't breathe, he couldn't breathe.

He was choking himself.

So jay tried to help him, and then he tried to fight jay.

Jay: Pried his hands off, and he started fighting me.

I blacked out right here, dude. I was all in --

I just -- I just passed out in my vest, and I woke up,

And zak was walking towards me, and I don't -- and then y--

Billy: It transferred to him.

It transferred to him and started affecting him.

I've never felt something that powerful before in my life.

Like, that -- that [bleep] like, [bleep] me up...

-And it was... -...For a long time.

...Your strength into your own...

Zak: Never did we imagine that events of this caliber

Would happen to us here.

Week after week, we place ourselves

At the threshold of unknown dimensions,

And here at goatman's bridge, we have unlocked a door

To something that will scar us.

-Stand up if you can. -I can't stand.

You gotta put your hands above your...

I can't stand.

Zak: The four of us have gone through hell together.

It's a bond of brothers that no force,

No matter how powerful, can ever break.

It's something only we understand the depth

Of what this can do to us.

I didn't want to watch that.

[ laughing ] jesus!

Yeah, that was a tough one.

Probably the heaviest one.

That's for sure.

Well, thanks for watching all that with us

And enjoying our nightmare.

Let's put some cartoons on.
