-Am I allowed to touch her? -No.

This is when I started really fearing for you, zak.

It's trying to tempt you.

-"grab foot." -yeah.

I feel very emotional right now.

Zak: This is the time we decided to get her

out of the building. Yeah.

She's just a mess.

-Oh, my gosh. -The balloon!

Yes.

From up here, shot down.

It came for me. Yeah.

It went straight back up.

Billy: It was following you.

It was just following you around.

At a 3-foot height, billy.

I just got goose bumps thinking about him.

Zak: We have seen things that defy explanation,

experiencing the best...

God, that was awesome.

That was so awesome. Literally, man

...And worst...

These dolls are gonna [bleep] take our souls.

...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 bagans, and this is

"ghost adventures: Screaming room."

alright, we, uh --

we are in the middle of this coronavirus pandemic.

And just for the safety of everybody,

I felt it was just healthier for me, the crew, and everybody

that we now film in a large theater.

We're sitting far apart from each other.

[ laughter ]

this is a crazy time that we're all going through.

But, you know, we still got to --

we still got to make jokes.

We still got to laugh.

We've still got to get through this.

So with that said, let's get our minds off of this.

Yeah.

Um, but -- what are we watching?

Just start playing it.

♪♪

-ugh. -Oh, wow.

-Museum -- oh. -I know what this is.

Annabelle. Yep.

So we are back at my haunted museum in las vegas.

Since becoming an investigator so many years ago,

I have worked to prove the existence

of the paranormal and unexplained

to as many people as possible.

That's why I am opening a museum so that people from all over

the world can come face to face

with absolute proof of the other side.

There was a lot of controversy around

this particular investigation.

Yes, there was.

There's one object that

I've always been intrigued about.

I've always wanted to be near it -- annabelle.

In 1970, the annabelle doll

was gifted to a nursing student who soon noticed

that the doll would mysteriously change position,

and she began to find written pleas for help

scattered around the apartment.

After a man who touched the doll

was punished with a physical attack,

ed and lorraine warren determined

that the doll was obviously possessed by something demonic.

Do I believe annabelle is haunted?

Yes, 100%.

Oh, yeah. So do I.

Do I believe she's haunted

at the level that hollywood portrays?

Let's -- let's watch this.

I want to see what happens when I introduce

this already incredibly haunted collection

to one of the most famous

and dangerous artifacts in the world.

When you talk about dark objects,

I'm around these things all the time,

so I'm gonna want to naturally investigate this doll...

Yeah. ...For the sake of the entire world

who has these questions about her.

We are getting ready to meet tony spera.

Tony is the son-in-law to lorraine warren

and the current owner of annabelle, the doll.

We all knew going in that this doesn't happen a lot

to where he allows investigations with this doll.

But you know what? Yeah.

We need to do what we do --

investigate.

This is a historic moment for annabelle and for us.

♪♪

how you doing? Good are you, zak?

Nice to meet you. Pleased to meet you, as well.

It was amazing that they never take it out,

and they did take it to the museum.

Yeah, and at this moment, I appreciated all of this.

You know, I appreciated him bringing her here.

What I brought tonight

is probably the most dangerous object

that we have in the museum back in connecticut.

So I was wondering, "did he bring the right doll?

Is this the real doll? Did he bring a different doll?"

and this was the real doll. This -- this was it.

The holy water you requested is on standby. Okay.

Why do we need the holy water?

I want you to tell me and everyone watching this.

Okay. Well, the holy water is for the crew, you, me

for protection.

♪♪

zak: Just before tony introduces me to annabelle,

I am suddenly overcome

with a strange feeling of confusion and disorientation.

Right. I remember how affected you were

just right in the interview process.

I forgot that -- that this moment happened

before he brought the doll out. Yeah, but you know what?

Him bringing annabelle is like throwing another chemical

into the beaker, and it just causes... Oh, yeah.

...All the other chemicals at the museum to react.

Yeah, what's that gonna stir up?

So I think that's really what we were dealing with.

It's difficult to focus or even form words,

let alone conduct an interview.

But I have to speak with tony to find out

if he is familiar with any of these symptoms.

Things like this happen to me, my staff, visitors every day.

The history speaks for itself at the museum. For sure.

Just imagine having a blindfold on

and you're feeling all these things

and you're trying to figure out if it's annabelle

or the museum itself.

Yeah.

So I just want to know if -- has anybody ever...

Experienced anything before they were getting ready

to go meet her or anything?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's what we call a forerunner.

It's a warning.

Annabelle doesn't want us to show her. Right.

So she is affecting you. Yeah.

Zak: I believe wholeheartedly

that thousands of objects are haunted --

even more haunted than buildings.

Mm-hmm.

It is what it is. I understand the risks.

I'm around this stuff all the time.

Though I am beginning to feel more like myself

and finally ready to meet with annabelle,

there is yet another surprising delay.

This was interesting.

This voice, you can clearly hear.

Listen to this.

When our audio technician, mike, alerts me

that during the last conversation

with tony in the hallway,

he noticed a strange audio anomaly within the recording.

We decide to immediately play it back for review.

Will you let us know if this was you or a --

or, like, a-a breathing? I'll let you know.

Okay.

I heard it.

But there's no... Hold on. Let me --

right here.

It's just -- it's strange.

I'm getting just kind of really weird, you know what I mean?

I think -- what the hell?

I got a -- what was it? What was it? What was it?

Turn it up. What was it, mike?

So he was really interested at this point.

He grabbed that right out of my hand.

Sounds like a cry or something.

You got to remember, that was captured

on my wireless mic.

When you were being affected.

It's just -- it's strange.

Now I'm getting just kind of really weird,

you know what I mean? I think it's --

-can you hear it? -Yeah, it's not it's not me.

It's not me. No, it's not me.

It's just -- it's strange.

Now I'm getting just kind of really weird... [ whining ]

so this was evidence.

This was evidence that we caught in the moment,

which is always impressive when you capture it in the moment.

Yeah. We reviewed it moments later.

We had a third party witness.

And at this point, we all agreed that there was

a female childish-type whine... Yeah.

...That nobody could explain.

-That was compelling. -Yep.

That proves it, right there.

I think we need to go meet her.

Is the holy water in there?

The holy water is in there.

I had this opportunity to investigate such an iconic doll.

I'm studying him, too.

Yeah. Sure.

I'm looking at him.

I'm making sure that these actions are authentic,

and this isn't just a show.

I want to know the truth about annabelle. Yeah.

I need to soak my hands in holy water.

I need to say some prayers around annabelle.

There's one.

The doll was possessed by an inhuman spirit

and it would mimic and mock a little girl.

He is representing ed and lorraine warren right now. Yeah.

And he was taking it very seriously.

He didn't want to touch it.

He was very, very serious about that. Oh, yeah.

Name of the father and the son and the holy spirit, amen.

A human spirit is not gonna possess a doll.

In the name of the father and the son and the holy spirit.

Amen.

An inhuman demon is gonna possess a doll

to trick the living into thinking it's a little kid.

Saint michael the archangel, defend us in battle.

This moment was so intense, zak.

Oven mitts and the holy water.

It's like this whole ritual just to take the doll out.

When the doll was being brought over, it was --

it was so scary... Right.

...'cause we didn't know what was gonna happen.

We are safeguarding against

the wickedness and snares of the devil.

May god rebuke him, we humbly pray.

By the power of god,

thrust into hell satan and all the evil spirits

who wonder through the world for the ruin of souls.

Amen.

He was so...Cautious. Which is fine.

I'm not gonna hold her for long.

This is her.

okay.

Okay, you can bring them in if you'd like now.

zak: It's time to meet annabelle.

Tony: This is annabelle right here.

Now, zak, before we do anything, use the holy water.

I want you to use your right hand.

And you're gonna go, "the father, the son..."

♪♪

zak: We are in my las vegas museum

and I finally meet what many claim

is the world's most haunted doll, annabelle.

Am I allowed to touch her?

No. Oh, no.

Don't touch her. Do not touch her.

And this is when the big moment happened.

This is what caused the controversy,

when I asked if I could touch the doll.

He snapped right back with "no."

to do a thorough investigation, I have to touch the object. Right.

I have to feel the energy in it.

Right. You have to experience all aspects of it.

Ed warren was giving a small tour of the museum

to some college kids,

and one was about 19 years old.

He came with his girlfriend on a motorcycle.

I'm not trying to undermine the credibility of this story,

but you know what?

This was the big history of annabelle the doll,

a hearsay moment.

Ed was talking about what happened with this doll,

that a young man had slashes put on it -- put on him.

When he gets to that point,

the college student runs up to the glass case,

starts banging on the case and says, "this is a bunch of bull.

If that doll can put slashes on anybody,

do it to me right now."

ed said, "son, you and your girlfriend got to leave."

he challenged what was in that doll, right?

Three hours later, though,

that 19-year-old man was -- was dead.

I don't -- I don't know. I just --

if something's that dark, it's gonna happen more often.

Let me experience it. Exactly.

I take full risk. Yeah.

I do this.

They were laughing and joking about that doll.

When he lost total control of the bike,

went straight on into a tree, was killed instantly.

[ tires screech, crashing ]

by touching her, what are you doing?

You are opening that door to the other realm,

to the -- to the preternatural realm.

We've opened one too many doors already.

Yeah, and by opening that door up,

what happens is you can never close the door.

Why does he care about my risk?

-Mm-hmm. -You know?

Maybe he's more protective psychologically of the doll

than he realizes.

For the very first time ever allowed on television,

we are investigating the real annabelle doll.

We have tony back in nerve center.

I remember sitting there with him.

The entire time, he was so nervous.

He kept reiterating, like, "oh, he better not touch it.

They got to be careful. It's so dangerous."

it's like that overprotective mother instinct. Yeah.

Well, how many times do we investigate,

and the person that owns the location

is very protective? All the time.

As we enter the area

where annabelle is sitting on a chair in my doll room,

I notice flickering lights

coming from my fortune telling machine

that's within about 10 feet of annabelle.

[ sighs ] here we go.

Yeah, it just ramped up immediately.

So I decide to unplug the machine.

It's under that back one.

[ unidentified speaking ]

-what the -- -why did it say that?

There is no way that it can say that.

Let me just show you right now.

Billy: What did it say?

That takes a quarter for that to talk.

-What the hell? -Whoa.

-Did you hear what it said? -What did it say?

"electricity."

this is when my voice came out, the mimicking.

Though, what's weird, zak,

is it was -- it was mid-sentence in the dialog,

right, of the script of that. It chose the word "electricity."

-right. -Yeah.

It just goes, "electricity."

I don't even think it was turned on or anything, either.

Right? No!

What -- what did it say?

-Something about -- -you feel this?

-Yes, yes. -Oh, my gosh.

It's something about the "electricity," it said.

Aaron: Yeah, something about the electricity. I-I --

there's no way that it can talk.

As we are feeling this energy,

within just a few feet from us in the doll room,

we capture a strange anomaly close to annabelle.

♪♪

the doll behind annabelle, that's cynthia.

Yeah.

Cynthia's a very haunted doll

that spoke to us on the spirit box

with intelligent responses

during another investigation at the haunted museum.

Yes. Yep.

So at this point,

I wanted to put cynthia right behind annabelle

to see if there'd be a reaction.

Yeah, see if it causes some kind of conflict between them.

Okay, so right now, we are going to go inside

this little doll room where annabelle is,

and we're going to try to communicate with "annabelle,"

who's actually a...

Mm-hmm. ...Inhuman spirit.

Did you hear that?

I swear I just heard something.

♪♪

aaron, just make sure you do not touch annabelle.

I'm coming in.

It starts happening right here, man.

Soon as you put that doll with the rest of the dolls. Oh, yeah.

That's when it was 100% --

annabelle had energy around her, 100%.

When you think about all the millions of people

that show fear from annabelle,

ed and lorraine warren,

the notoriety she's gotten from them,

and then now from the -- oh, gosh.

Now feel that. Aaron, come here!

Whoa. Yes.

Dude, I'm telling you right now --

come here, come here, come here.

Don't touch her, dude. Don't touch her.

That was scary, zak, because it was so dark in there,

I was worried that we'd bump it by mistake.

Just accidentally, yeah.

Yeah.

All of the millions of people that have fear

just by saying her name every day

over and over and over.

Every time a new movie comes out,

all of this fear for annabelle, this doll,

it can empower her just from all that.

Zak: As I theorize about how

this evil spirit within annabelle

harnesses its dark powers, the strong energy returns,

only this time, it's directly beneath the doll.

So we started getting this energy field,

this ice-cold energy field

that started floating around annabelle.

And that was really compelling.

Put your hand right there.

Is that -- exactly.

I immediately place the spirit box down here,

and we receive a voice with an absolutely disturbing tone.

[ unidentified speaking ]

[ oscillating static ]

oh, yeah. It said, "listen."

you could hear that. Very creepy.

Yeah, a very creepy voice saying it.

Super clear, too.

After I ask, "who are we supposed to listen to?"

we receive this...

[ oscillating static ]

-did you hear that? -Yeah, it said, "annabelle."

in a man's voice. A man's voice.

Jay: "annabelle," like that. Yeah.

-In a man's voice. -I heard that.

So it said, "listen, annabelle."

"listen, annabelle."

that's when it hit the fan, and it was like,

"this is gonna get bad."

[ oscillating static ]

zak: We decide to move annabelle

away from these other haunted dolls

so that we can focus on the visual aspects

of our investigation.

Do you think that could have been annabelle,

or do you think it might have been

one of the other spirits there

saying, "this is annabelle"?

Is this truly annabelle,

or is this one of the other spirits at the museum

playing with us, deceiving us? Right.

We aim multiple cameras at her,

including the thermal camera, the full spectrum camera,

the structured light sensor camera.

And then we begin trying to make further communication

by using our talking evp machine.

What do you want, annabelle?

[ unidentified voice ] you.

-What's that? -"you."

it said what?

Aaron: You said, "what do you want, annabelle?"

oh, wow.

do you want me, annabelle?

Demons, entities like this, they have an agenda.

They plan things. They will deceive you.

in my las vegas haunted museum.

Aaron: You said, "what do you want, annabelle?"

which actually was scary because we've seen you

on investigations kind of transfer and change,

Anything could snap and go wrong.

You want me, annabelle?

-Us. U-s. -She wanted --

-us. -You want us?

Are you using the ground, annabelle?

Whoa.

We captured a weird little snarl.

But this is where it all changed.

billy: Zak, right now...

Oh, my god.

You had two skeletons on you.

It jumped into you, connected with you more

'cause you're so close to it, dude.

You had your mapped figure,

two figures over top of each other,

and then one went -- [ gasps ]

oh, my god. It's on your shoulder.

It's standing on top of you.

It keeps coming out of you and on you and on top of you

and behind you and into the doll.

As if the doll had a spirit coming out of it,

going into me. Yeah.

Billy: It was just standing up on top of your shoulder,

a little figure, and then back into you.

And then from your stick figure

into her stick figure, I swear to god.

Super compelling as far as I'm concerned.

It's all about you and this doll, zak.

Zak: As I'm whispering to annabelle,

my body is being mapped by a skeletal figure,

as it should be.

But then, all of a sudden,

a second unknown skeletal figure also appears inside my body.

This second unknown skeletal figure

then transfers itself from me to annabelle.

That was the big part for me, when my second skeletal figure,

as if I had a second spirit in me... Yes.

...Went from me to annabelle as if we became one.

Right. That's why I was freaking out.

I'm like -- I was the only one seeing it at that time.

Next, it's as if this figure jumps back out of annabelle,

hovers behind me and then behind her

before getting on top of my shoulders.

I believe our equipment is detecting

the evil spirit inside annabelle,

leaving her to find something or someone else to possess.

This is when something psychological

began affecting me. Definitely. Yeah.

And I felt this trance-like state.

Are you alright, zak? Huh?

Are you alright?

Man, I can feel a lot of energy right in front of me.

It is now that I start zoning out.

Everything feels weird around me.

And I know this sounds crazy,

but I feel connected to annabelle

and protective of her.

And her stick figure keeps jumping in and out of me.

That doll caused that motorcycle accident --

that's the big story within the history of annabelle.

So any investigating of annabelle the doll,

of us asking it questions, doing anything,

we could also suffer that same wrath.

I just want to touch her so bad.

Aaron: Don't touch. Don't touch, man.

Zak, don't touch the doll, whatever you do.

That's how they try to entice you.

I know, tony, but I just feel like I want to.

Do not touch the doll.

If you do, you're inviting evil into you.

I'll accept it.

-No, don't. -No!

Look at the curiosity and just wanting to touch it

and get close to it, zak.

It was like you were connecting.

Bill: It's starting to map the doll.

I understand. The doll's now mapped, zak.

-Zak! -Zak, don't!

I'll have to abort this whole thing if you continue that

because it's affecting your behavior.

Dude, I'm burning up, bro.

It's getting to the point now

where the doll is trying to take control over.

You can see what it did to zak.

It's time to put that doll back in the case.

Oh, my god.

It says, "ann."

he was not happy.

Well, he wasn't happy. But, you know what?

It just shocked me that there was never one time

where he acknowledged how crazy this evidence was.

He was watching live!

He was more worried about you touching it.

If all of this evidence isn't enough already

to add to annabelle's legend of being a haunted doll,

we yet again received her name on another communication device.

Billy: She's trying to take control of this. I-I--

I feel like I have a fever of 105.

I'm, like, sweating like crazy. It was cold in here.

Tony, please, can I give you -- I'll give you anything you want.

Can I please just -- just hold her once?

Tony: You are playing right into the hands of the demonic.

Well, she wants me to grab her, tony.

She wants me to. She's --

tony, if you know the paranormal so well,

you would understand

when you're letting me be 5 inches away

from one of the most haunted objects in the world,

I could run into the risk of being affected

under the -- the spell of this negative spirit or this demon.

And that's what was happening to me.

Additionally, tony told us that the man who died

in the motorcycle accident never actually touched her.

He was just speaking to her from outside her case.

So if that story is true, then it really confuses me

that he wouldn't already think I am in grave danger

from being inches from her

and speaking to her, engaging with her.

So why would be touching her be any different?

Well, she wants me to grab her.

It says, "god."

this says "god" right now.

-Are you serious? -No, it says, "god."

zak: As tony is telling me to ask god for protection,

the talking evp device that's aimed directly at annabelle

says the word "god."

tony: God is your protector, remember that, zak.

If you touch the doll, zak, all bets are off.

I cannot guarantee your safety in the future.

Do you like to be in a car accident?

Or have a heart attack? Because that can happen.

This is when I started really fearing for you, zak.

This moment was not me.

There was a weird connection there.

And it just left your body.

And then it leaves out of me

and forms into a figure free floating behind me!

I still believe the evil entity

that possesses annabelle has left her

and is currently roaming free inside of the haunted museum.

The question is, will it return to the doll

before tony abruptly takes it away?

Ever since annabelle left,

the activity at my museum has increased twofold. Aaron: Yeah.

I had weird moments happen for months after that,

I arrive at my house and make a rather ironic discovery.

And then a series of weird things happened

as I drove home, pull into the garage.

people that aren't us to observe them --

to observe other people --

how they respond in these locations.

Woman: Oh, man.

Man: This is gonna be sick!

[ laughs ]

oh, my god.

Hello.

-Hello -hi!

Kind of unfair to them being that annabelle just left

and we had that huge moment. Right?

♪♪

aaron: There's so many stories in your museum, zak.

They don't even know the history.

The power of your museum happens on a normal day basis

with just people showing up.

That's why I say

zak's museum is the most haunter place on earth.

I would -- I would agree.

Most haunted place on earth.

It's insanely active.

If you would like to proceed knowing these risks,

I want each of you to say, "let's do this."

[ together ] let's do this!

♪♪

hi. What is going on?

-Greg. -Hey.

-Martin. -Yep.

Zak: And alex.

Martin was like the guy that was just so geeked up...

Yeah. ...He was just, like, couldn't contain himself.

He was great.

Are you guys ready for this?

♪♪

-oh, absolutely. -Oh, yeah.

You guys are here for a reason.

Everything that you heard over there

is very, very serious.

In this building,

I have personally seen people drop to the ground

and not know what their names are.

I'm just telling you,

this isn't just a haunted attraction.

♪♪

♪♪

would you like a triscuit, zak?

No thank you. No?

Jay? Oh, I'm good. I got some snacks.

That's a lot of food, g.

More for me.

Zak: Greg, martin, and alex will now enter the haunted museum

from three separate doors.

We will be watching and listening to their every move

from a secret nerve center

hidden inside the haunted museum.

They show up, and we just got done doing some annabelle stuff.

So, like, I felt scared for them.

Do you think the spirit of annabelle is still there?

I do. Yeah, I do.

Right.

Martin: I'm welcoming you to do something to me.

I want you to slap me, scratch me.

This guy right here, I was like, "stop, bro.

Stop antagonizing it."

scream at me. Bang something.

Push me. I don't care.

Sometimes people want an experience so bad

they go all out and they get a bad repercussion from it.

Yeah, it could be dangerous.

Well, there's a picture of bela lugosi right there.

Yes, there is.

So is this the mirror?

That is the bela lugosi mirror.

Ooh, golly. Now we're talking.

For some reason, greg is very interested

in looking into the cursed bela lugosi mirror.

So this is weird.

Something begins happening to greg here.

[ gasps ] wow.

Bela lugosi's mirror.

The legend behind this is unbelievable.

So come on. We're here.

We're here.

Greg starts seeing something

and you can see he starts acting strange from it.

So this crying mirror?

All of a sudden, for the first time tonight,

greg's demeanor changes

immediately after he starts challenging the mirror.

He just, like, zoned out. Like, "what?"

I've looked in that mirror, too. It sucks you in.

Like, it does. It puts you in a trance.

[ sniffs ]

[ exhales deeply ]

[ sighs ] I got to move away just for a second.

[ sighs, inhales deeply ]

[ breathing deeply ]

he just starts breathing heavy.

Yeah, he's definitely being affected.

It's clear.

We are here to make contact with you.

♪♪

did you?

I started feeling bad for him at that moment.

Yeah, that was instant regret right there.

Did you see his face?

What makes this moment very chilling

is that seconds before

greg and alex drew open the curtain

to the bela lugosi mirror,

an unexplained light anomaly

appears to shoot directly into it.

Literally a ball of energy... Into the mirror, right?

...Goes from one side of the room

into the mirror on the other side.

It's not dust. It's not a bug.

With greg being affected,

the energy now turns its focus on alex.

I feel...Like I keep seeing something right here.

[ gasps ] oh! What?

You okay, hun?

Something [high pitched] touched me!

Wait! [ laughs nervously ]

yeah? Okay, careful.

Careful, careful.

And then she gets touched.

It's just more proof happening and happening.

Oh, man.

My chest got really tight.

Yeah, there's something right over here, huh?

Something right here in the mirror, huh?

Oh, my god, I got goose bumps everywhere.

Zak: Just as alex is feeling static energy all around her,

the same light anomaly that shot into the mirror

is now captured manifesting directly out of her chest.

She felt tightening in her chest

right before that happened.

She felt it happen.

Aaron now takes martin down into the basement

to do some spirit box sessions

where dark rituals took place in the 1970s

and where recently

bloody mary performed several voodoo rituals.

Was it bad to invite these people

and let them investigate alone after the [bleep] hit the fan?

They wanted to do it. Yeah.

I then lock alex inside of the funeral parlor.

I'm gonna let you know exactly what's going on in here

after I open it, okay?

This room is so pitch black that she cannot tell

there are two caskets containing human skeletons,

one of which was discovered

in the attic of an old mysterious odd fellows' lodge.

Can you show me your intelligent

by saying one of our names?

He starts getting ballsy down there.

Yeah. He was pushing it hard.

Would you like to say anything to him

before they all have to leave?

[ oscillating static ]

what?!

I heard that!

Look at his reaction.

-Right? -Yeah.

He gets so excited 'cause he's getting that evidence.

Yeah. It's happening.

[ oscillating static ]

it was like, [high pitched] "come to me."

would you like to say anything to him

before they all have to leave?

[ oscillating static ]

[ laughter ]

zak: Back in the funeral parlor, billy has joined alex.

And as they attempt to make contact,

they received the name david cook

when asking the skeleton to identify itself.

-David cook? -Yeah.

That's very specific.

That's strange -- a first and a last name. Right.

And then she got all emotional, like, out of nowhere.

My heart's racing really fast right now

that's because he wants you to play it.

[ exhales deeply ]

[ piano plays ]

♪♪

that's awesome.

My chest is so tight right now.

She seemed really embarrassed because she's, like,

wanting to break down and start crying.

I'm like, "it's okay.

You're connecting with something that's there."

[ exhales sharply ]

you okay?

Yeah. I keep feeling like I'm gonna cry.

They might be channeling through you.

They like the music.

I feel really emotional right now.

♪♪

♪♪

zak: Alex and billy are alone in the funeral parlor,

and alex has begun to feel

the emotional effects of the energies here.

I begin walking towards the room to make sure she's not getting

too deep into a possible spirit attachment.

Soon as I reached the room, jay radios us

with some compelling research

regarding the odd fellows' skeleton.

So there was a david cook that died in 1957.

He was a member of the odd fellows.

-What? Are you serious? -[gasps]

what are the chances of that? Getting a specific name,

and then I look it up, and it's actually

a member of the odd fellows.

And it could actually be the skeleton of that guy

that you guys own. It could be. You never know.

Zak: I immediately grabbed the full spectrum camera

and as I begin snapping photos, I capture this one,

which shows an unexplained black mass

appearing to creep onto the funeral kneeler.

When we try to debunk this,

we can't duplicate the black mass.

This is also the area where alex saw a black mass.

There's a... A black, uh, mass --

a shadow on the ground that keeps going back and forth.

The cool thing is, is that she saw it with her own eyes...

Right. Exactly.

...And you captured it on full spectrum camera.

That's incredible.

As we are reviewing the photo, watch very closely

as this heart-shaped anomaly comes right out of the coffin.

You remember that, zak? This strange anomaly?

It's not a normal shaped anomaly.

Yeah.

♪♪

I felt something right there.

Exactly. You react to it.

[ oscillating static ]

-what's wrong? -I feel like I'm gonna pass out.

Alex: I'm just really overwhelmed right now.

With what? I don't know. I feel like...

It's just really intense.

She was definitely attached to whatever was going on in there.

She was just a mess.

What are you feeling, like, emotion-wise?

Like, I feel like -- I feel like I'm gonna pass out.

Zak: I think this was the time

we decided to get her out of the building.

You get somebody out when they're at that level.

My hand, my -- my legs are really numb.

As we end our fan lock down

and begin closing down the haunted museum,

I head up to the second floor

where something very strange happens.

This right here is straight out of the horror movies.

-Oh, my gosh. -The balloon!

Zak: Watch as this balloon comes out of the funhouse.

Oh, my gosh. Yes.

♪♪

I think we wrapped filming.

-Yeah, we were done. -This is after, right.

We were cleaning up. Inside, I screamed to grab a camera.

Are you rolling? Roll it, roll it.

-Roll, roll, roll, roll. -I'm rolling.

We have a couple balloons in the room next door.

This balloon just shot out of the room

and it was following me.

It walked all the way through this railing right here.

No way.

This balloon came out of the funhouse...

And was following you.

It was just following you around.

At a 3-foot height, billy. Exactly.

Like something -- like a kid was walking it down,

and then just let go with the string.

Now it's raising. You didn't c--

oh, wait, that camera was rolling, though.

We filled up a few balloons in here

full of full helium earlier today.

I've shut off all the ac units

because earlier we had a leak in the room.

Come here. Look at the leak. Can you see the trash bag here?

There was no air conditioning on.

No nothing. No.

It came for me from here to that wall. Yeah.

A good 15, 20 feet.

A balloon just came from up here, shot down.

It came right here. It was following, following.

It was walking right here where I was.

It came over the rail. It went straight back up.

-Where's it at? -It's up in there.

I think it's up there now.

Zak: Where's it at?

And then right here, you know what?

After it goes up, we never found the balloon ever again.

Never saw it.

It just disappeared.

-You see it? -I don't see it.

-It's gone. -What?

It was just right there. Now it's gone.

Zak: A thunderstorm and a bolt of lightning,

a balloon that pursues me at the height of a child

or perhaps a doll's height.

It's clear that I formed a connection with annabelle.

Whether part of her remains here is yet to be seen.

That was like a little bonus.

Was it really even there?

Right. Was it an apport?

Damn.

Thanks for making us relive that nightmare again.

Yeah, thanks, bro.

Oh, I got more nightmares on the way for you.

Oh, geez.

Cool. So that's good, guys.

-Alright, cut. -And cut.
