[thunder rumbling]

[phone buzzing]

[creepy music playing]

Hello?

Who was that?

[glass breaking]

Who'd you piss off this time?

Me? Coming from you?

[both shuddering]

[thunder rumbling]

[both screaming]

[director] cut!

That's the take.
Susan's gonna love it.

Hey, what's up?
I'm luke hutchie.

And you may know me from ezra.

And I'm here to see
if ghosts are real.

And spoiler alert, they're not.

And I'm matthew finlan.

You may know me from
orphan: First kill.

[laughing]

And I'm here to prove
to luke and you

That ghosts are, in fact, real.

Our mission is to investigate
allegedly spooky locations

And figure out
if they are truly "haunted."

As we step off the script
and into our own thriller

We'll invite
a special celebrity guest--

Aka our friends.

...To come with us
to each investigation.

So, sit back,
relax and enjoy the show

As we invite you to come...

[both] ghosting.

[gasps]

[theme music playing]

Our story begins in 1878,

When edward merrill built
the house for his family.

Now infamously known
as the merrill house.

[creepy victorian music playing]

Edward merrill
was the town's magistrate,

Which is, like,
a really powerful judge.

However, edward's political
career was short-lived

When he mysteriously left
the merrill house,

Never to return.

Ownership of the merrill house

Changed hands
several times over the decades.

Families and their servants
moved in and out

With the spirit of one
servant's child never leaving.

-Can I guess the next part?
-Please, please.

-Are they a ghost?
-[matthew gasping]

-He's catching on.
-"I didn't see it coming."

In the 1960s,
the final residential owner

Moved in referred to
as "the last lady."

And it was one fateful night
that the last lady

Woke from her bed
and just like edward himself,

Fled the home, never to return.

As we head into
our investigation tonight,

We'll search for the ghosts
of edward merrill,

A servant's child,
and the last lady.

All of these spirits
lead us to the merrill house

Located in historic...

[both] picton, ontario.

[hip-hop music playing]

I'm jordan,
the owner of merrill house.

Merrill house
has lived many lives.

It began as a private
family home

And then when I bought it
five years ago

I converted it
into a boutique luxury hotel.

I really consider myself
a custodian of this house.

Merrill is that sort of

Typical iconic haunted house.

Many people have lived here
over many generations,

So it's conceivable
that there would be ghosts.

The merrill house
is a hundred percent haunted.

I mean, I certainly think
there are hauntings.

There's definitely
some spirits that live there.

Perhaps there was
some unfinished business here.

I wish you the best of luck.

♪

[matthew gasping] oh.

This place
is definitely haunted.

-It's a house.
-It's definitely haunted.

This is real life haunted.

Okay, it looks like
a house from a fairy tale.

Like what? Robin hood? Oh wait.

I know the perfect person.

Boo, bitch!

Hi, my name is bukola ayoka.

You might know me
from robyn hood.

[laughing]

Off the top, I need everyone
to know that I come in peace.

Out of matthew and luke,

I definitely trust luke--
I mea-- sorry.

I trust matthew.
[laughing] that was a slip.

Safety-wise,
I trust luke with my life.

Guidance-wise,
through a haunted house,

If I were to pick one of them,
I'd be picking matthew.

I'm a little bit scared.

I don't know
what I'm walking into.

Our first hot spot
for investigation

Is the former dining hall
of the merrill house

Located on the first floor.

[bukola] oh, boy.

[sinister music playing]

-[luke] but it's nice in here.
-[bukola] is it?

As soon as you walk in
you feel the energy shift.

Does anyone want a crystal?
To hold.

Oh, I'll take one.
A rose quartz, yes.

-Luke?
-No, thanks.

Coachella was last month.

-Thanks luke.
-[matthew] edward merrill

Was one of the most
influential men of his time

And as town magistrate
he hosted lavish parties

In his upscale dining hall.

[matthew] this was
the dining room where he hosted

All of the biggest figures
of the community.

We're talking
other judges, businessmen,

Philanthropists and
even future prime ministers.

The politics of the time

Were such that public hangings
were commonplace

If the crime called for it.

Edward was notorious

For being against
capital punishment.

In one case so controversial

He called on his friend
sir john a. Macdonald,

Who encouraged edward
to rule with an iron fist.

We actually have
a lot of correspondence

Between edwards merrill
and sir john,

Where he was petitioning him
on quite progressive issues

Like abolishing
capital punishment.

He was forced to
sentence two people

Who he thought
were innocent to be hung.

The guilt of this action
caused edward

To take his own life by hanging.

-He sentenced himself--
-trigger warning.

He sentences himself
to the same punishment--

-That he was so against.
-So against.

And that's why peer pressure
is dangerous.

It's the worst.

Be you, because
there's no one else like you.

And if edward was edward,

He wouldn't be in the pickle
that he's in today.

Sir john a. Macdonald,

Uh, actually studied law
under edwards merrill.

It's edwards, actually.

How was I supposed to know?

Mispronouncing people's names
is a tricky thing.

Anyways, edwards merrill,
you were--

I don't think you should be

Dissing the ghost
that we're about to meet.

Mispronouncing a ghost's name!

The owner of the house!

Right, um, so...

You said merrills!

That's how you pronounced it.

-Merrills?
-Yeah, the merrills' house.

[both laughing]

Disrespectful.

Do you know how you
communicate with the dead?

-I'm afraid of your answer.
-You shouldn't be.

-It's gonna be fun.
-Famous last words.

Matthew brings it out,
and my first thoughts were

"it's pretty. It's pretty."

I don't know how to use it,
but it's pretty.

[matthew] a spirit board
is a board

Used to communicate
with the dead.

We're about to meet edwards.

Pov.

Anything else I should know?

Grapes explode in the microwave.

-[bukola] hmm.
-It's important.

When you light these candles,

I want you to hold

The intention
of making positive contact.

-Did you set an intention?
-Nope.

My intention is to let
edwards merrill possess me.

[bukola laughing nervously]

I'm not trying to be,
like, possessed.

Please.

Let's all take two fingers,

Push them towards each other.

Luke.

-Okay.
-Serious.

[all clearing throat]

[matthew] inhale.

Exhale.

[matthew] edwards,

If you are here,

May you please
make your spirit known.

Edwards, are you here
with us tonight?

Do you have any questions
for edwards?

Why the other s?

Why the extra s, edward?

There was no need for it.

Was that necessary?

[bukola laughing]

-Yeah, this was really good.
-I think with the laughter

About the s, we've offended him.

-[matthew] highly possible.
-We're kiki-ing about the s.

Edwards said, "I'm out."

Okay, so that didn't work.

But guests and staff
of the merrill house

Have reported seeing
the ghost of edwards

Dressed to the nines

As he watches them
through the front window.

I've got another tool
in my back pocket.

A rem pod is a tool

That will detect
the presence of a ghost.

Okay, this is the window

That edwards merrill
is often seen through.

Edwards,

If you would like to
let us know that you are here,

Approach the rem pod
and we will know.

[all screaming, laughing]

Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

[spirit cackling]

Edwards,

If you would like to
let us know that you are here,

Approach the rem pod
and we will know.

[all screaming, laughing]

Oh, my god! Oh, my god!

I literally have
freaking chills right now.

[laughing] no, no, no!

Edward? No, no, guys, stay away.

I blacked out.

Edwards,
why did you hang yourself?

[bukola] we were just wondering

What that was all about.

Edwards?

Are you still here?

[sinister music intensifies]

Can I toss one thing
into the ring?

[matthew] oh, my god, I'm scared
of whatever you're gonna do.

-Same.
-I'm gonna need you to

Grab that sword off the bed.

-Bukola.
-[bukola] luke! What?

-[matthew] wait.
-Grab the sword off the bed.

He hated capital punishment,
so you're gonna

Pretend to kill me
and see if he comes out.

-Me?
-Yeah, yeah. You.

[matthew] edwards,
if you would like to interject,

Speak now
or forever hold your peace.

Edwards said "get him."

[luke] edwards, come on!

-[luke] listen, eddie.
-Okay. We're switching out.

-It's a witch, edwards!
-Edwards, please.

-Matthew, get in.
-Sure, why not.

[luke] you in the stocks,
pronto.

-[beeping]
-not gonna ask you again.

-[laughing]
-the end.

Our next hot spot
for investigation

Is the former servant's quarters

Located on the third floor.

The merrill house
saw many families

Come and go over the years.

But a house of this size

Required a live-in staff
to maintain it,

So servants moved into the home
along with their children,

All of whom occupied
the third floor.

[ominous music plays]

[luke] you know, I love her.
This is miss girl.

She was giving.
She had secrets, though.

What are the vibes?
What are you feeling?

It's giving a lot.
It's giving sus.

-[matthew] yeah?
-Yeah.

That makes sense,
because this is actually

One of the most active places

In the entire house.

Yeah, and it's said that,
to this day,

The spirit of a playful child

Still haunts this very room.

Paranormal investigators report

That the spirit of a child
resides in this room.

It's said that this child
likes to play tricks on people

Who spend the night
in this room,

Pinching them, tickling them.

Boy, do I have
the perfect tool for this ghost.

What's the vibe of the bear?

-[matthew] so the bear-
-sell me it.

I want an hgtv infomercial
on this bear.

[matthew]
the boo buddy is a tool

That detects the energy
of child-like ghosts.

-Let's all just--
-stay quiet.

-Stay quiet for a second. Ready?
-Okay, okay.

♪

[laughing]

[luke] what do we do now?

I mean, we're capturing
footage on the camera.

-This is proof. Okay.
-Proof of what? The bear?

That-- that--
that there was a spirit

Interacting with the bear.

So, we do have another tool,

And this is an emf detector.

[matthew]
an emf detector is a tool

Used to measure
the presence of a ghost.

[luke] put that up to the bear,
see what happens.

Do I have to be the one to this?

-You do.
-Yes.

I'm just trying
to be a good sport here.

I'm trying to, like,
"mm-hmm," but I'm scared.

[bukola] I come in peace.
Let's just get that straight.

[laughing]

-I don't!
-[laughing]

I do not.

Actually, bukola makes
a living playing pretend.

-Shh. Shh.
-[luke] yeah, why are you lying?

-Don't be spreading my business.
-Why are you lying to ghosts?

-Ah!
-I'm a big fan of tiktok.

And there's that
fun viral trend,

"things that would send a small
victorian child into a coma."

Basically the trend is
you showcase random objects,

The things that wouldn't have
existed 400 years ago,

That would, in theory,

Send a small victorian child
into shock.

So, like, carbonated water.

A microwave.

Let's explain that.

A metal box
that you put your food into

And it zaps it and makes it hot.

I cannot.

[laughing]

"oh, I'm so cute." mm-mm.

Ipod. How do we describe that?

So, music is playing

Through this small,
little, tiny-tiny

-Flat metal thing...
-[luke] yes.

...And you put
two wires into your ears.

-Describe a wire.
-Yeah, what's a wire?

What's a wire?

Small little box you plug wire--

You plu-- what's a plug?

We have priyanka,
winner of canada's drag race.

-Who wants to start that one?
-Queen.

Icon. Legend.

Female im-- impersonation--

-That's what this is.
-Period.

That's a good way to say it.

This is priyanka.
What's her name?

-Okay, well. Damn.
-Damn. Disrespect.

Should we all
hold hands with the bear?

-Maybe.
-Okay. Everybody hold hands.

Hold hands. Okay, so this--

I don't know what I thought.

This child ghost,
though, is known

To, like, tickle people,

Or pinch them, or--

-[ominous music booms]
-we're done.

-[laughs]
-we're done.

-Did you hear that?
-I heard that.

It's time to go.

Our final hot spot
for investigation

Is the former primary bedroom
located on the second floor.

[ominous music plays]

[bukola] oh, boy.

[matthew] what are the vibes
you're picking up right now?

It's giving feminine energy.

Every owner
of the merrill house,

From edwards himself

To the final residential buyer
in the late 1960s

Known as the last lady,
occupied this room.

The last lady
lived alone in the home

Until she inexplicably
left her bedroom

In the middle of the night.

[matthew] she left the house

Wearing only her night gown

And walked into
the picton bay...

Never to come back out again.

The vibe in this room?
You feel it.

To this day,
nobody knows what made

The last lady flee this house.

Was it suicide
or something more sinister?

So, I know that the devil
doesn't need an advocate.

Like, that's the last thing
the devil needs.

If I love the house so much,

I just-- like, I'm not leaving.
You know what I mean?

I mean, the facts are facts.

The facts are
she loved the home.

I mean,
she clearly loved the home.

She bought it,
she lived here by herself.

-She didn't--
-I don't love where I live.

-But I didn't buy, I'm renting.
-Exactly. That's it.

[spirit cackling]

This chair is giving me
such a vibe right now.

-I don't know why.
-Get your crystals out, girl.

Actually, yeah.
This might be the perfect spot

To conduct our experiment.

We're going to
have you sensory deprived

With a blindfold
and noise-cancelling headphones

Communicating the responses

That the last lady
will provide via spirit box

To the questions
luke and I will ask.

[matthew]
a spirit box allows ghosts

To communicate
using radio frequencies.

Do I want the lady
who disappeared in this house

To be speaking to me right now?

-No.
-[static crackling]

Right.

-I'm shaking in my boots.
-Luke, it's gonna work.

Last lady,

Why did you flee this house?

-The girl.
-The girl?

Who could the girl be?

I don't know
why you're looking at me.

Truth.
Was the girl your daughter?

♪ yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

-Were you pregnant?
-[singsong] baby.

It's, like--
it's cutting between, um...

Like, stations, radio stations.

-[laughing]
-yes.

I think I accidentally set

The spirit box
to fm instead of am.

Was the girl your baby?

Jesus.

♪ I like men ♪

I'm obsessed with this.

The singing, the vibrato.

It's like exorcism: The musical.

♪ yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

I'm gonna see
if I can figure out

What really happened
to the last lady.

You give the crazy person
a water bottle

To make a water park,
you know what I mean?

I can hear
the static through it.

-Let's turn off the lights.
-It was speaking french.

Bilingual spirits.

As soon as matthew
puts the headphones on,

Matthew starts answering
the questions that I'm asking

In, like,
a very conversational way.

[bukola] why did you leave?

What? I didn't.

[bukola]
what made you exit the house?

[matthew] 'cause he was strong.

[luke] it's always a man.
Always a man.

The downfall of everything: Men.

Let me tell ya. No offence.

Oh, shit.

-[bukola] who was strong?
-I don't know.

We're chitchatting
with this ghost.

-[bukola] what do you mean?
-[matthew] we'll die.

[luke] oh, finally.

-Who's dying?
-Me!

-[luke screams]
-it's time to get out of here.

What did you ask?
What did you learn?

We were like,
"why are you leaving?

What caused you to leave?"

"I didn't. He made me.

-He was strong."
-[matthew] oh, shit.

It's, like, giving,
like, when a stranger calls.

-The killer's inside the house.
-Oh, my god.

[luke]
so we think, just to be clear,

A man was here.

-Tried to kill her, she fled.
-That's what she's saying.

[luke]
so maybe she was murdered?

He got her in the river.

Did we just solve a cold case,
you guys?

[laughing]

This concludes our investigation
into the merrill house.

And now it's time to decide
if this place is truly...

[both] ...Haunted.

[matthew] the evidence
of hot spot number one,

The former dining hall,
is the rem pod went off

When we asked edwards,
"are you here?"

-[rem pod beeping]
-[all screaming]

I screamed in solidarity
with everybody else,

Because the one thing about me
is I'm a team player.

Solid proof that
edwards was with us.

[luke] our evidence
in hot spot number two,

Which was the former
servant's quarters,

Is that there was a bear.

We had it saying
that it was being tickled

When what does
the ghost do in this room?

Tickles people.

-We're done.
-The collab of the century,

Chucky meets build-a-bear,
it was iconic, it was great.

[matthew] the evidence
of the final hot spot,

Which was the former
primary bedroom,

Is the voice that we heard
coming through the spirit box,

-Solving this cold case.
-What voice?

It was playing fucking
nelly furtado, keith urban,

-And then bukola goes...
-♪ yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

Jesus-- matthew, I can sing too,

It doesn't mean there's
a fucking ghost. Watch. Ready?

♪ oh, yeah, yeah ♪

-Luke doesn't know--
-oh, my god! It's a ghost!

[director]
the million-dollar question is

Do you think
the merrill house is haunted?

The ghosting verdict
on our investigation

Into the merrill house is...

I 100% can tell you...

-Not haunted.
-Haunted.

-What?
-The merrill house is haunted.

See you next ghoul.

Hope we didn't
scare you too badly.

I hope I did.

Actually, yeah.

-Bye.
-Help me.
