ARE HAUNTED BY A PRESENCE.
THE MOTHER BELIEVES
IT'S HER LONG-LOST LOVE WHO WAS MURDERED.
CHRIS?
IS THAT YOU?
I THOUGHT HE WAS TRYING TO COMMUNICATE WITH ME.
I DEFINITELY MISSED HIM.
Narrator: BUT HER DAUGHTER ISN'T CONVINCED.
[ SCREAMING ]
SAM? [ SOBBING ]
I CAME FACE-TO-FACE WITH THIS DARK FIGURE.

THIS THING DID NOT WANT TO LEAVE.

[ BALL CLACKS ]
IN THE EARLY '90s,
KELLY CATALINE IS ENJOYING HER CAREFREE 20s
WITH HER BOYFRIEND, CHRIS.
SO...
I REALLY WANT YOU TO MEET MY PARENTS.
Kelly: WHEN CHRIS AND I WERE DATING,
WE WERE VERY YOUNG.
I WAS 24.
SO MOST OF THE THINGS WE DID TOGETHER
WAS GOING TO THE BARS AND PLAYING POOL --
FUN THINGS LIKE THAT.
WHAT IF THEY DON'T LIKE ME?
THEY'RE GONNA LOVE YOU.
TRUST ME.
DANG, I'M GONNA BE LATE.
I'M SUPPOSED TO PICK UP MELISSA FROM THE AIRPORT.
WHAT TIME IS CHARLES MEETING YOU?
HE SHOULD BE HERE SOON.
WE'RE SUPPOSED TO PLAY POOL TONIGHT.
HE WAS VERY OUTGOING, LOVED PEOPLE,
VERY FUN, HAD A LOT OF FRIENDS.
I'LL SEE YOU LATER?
[ CHUCKLES ]
OKAY. I'LL BE BACK IN, LIKE, A COUPLE OF HOURS.
OKAY.
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU, TOO.
BYE. BYE.
**
WHOA. HEY, MAN, THAT'S RESERVED.
MY FRIEND'S ON HIS WAY.
WHAT'D YOU SAY TO ME?
THAT'S MY FRIEND'S CHAIR.
IT'S MINE NOW.
WHOA.
THIS GUY GIVING YOU PROBLEMS?
LOOK, I DON'T WANT ANY PROBLEMS, ALL RIGHT?
JUST -- JUST LEAVE ME -- JUST LEAVE ME ALONE, ALL RIGHT?
JUST GET AWAY FROM ME. [ BREATHES SHAKILY ]
GET AWAY --
[ GRUNTS ]
[ PANTING ]
OH, GOD.
Narrator: CHRIS IS RUSHED TO THE HOSPITAL,
AND LATER DIES. [ FLATLINE ]
Kelly: HE WAS TAKEN SO YOUNG. JUST, I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
HE WAS A VERY STRONG MAN,
SO IT WAS SHOCKING THAT HE DIED THAT WAY.
**
Kelly: I LOVE YOU.
Chris: I LOVE YOU, TOO.
I DON'T WANT ANY PROBLEMS, ALL RIGHT?
[ GRUNTS ]
Narrator: THE TRAGIC LOSS HAUNTS KELLY FOR YEARS.
Kelly: IT WAS REALLY, REALLY HARD.
I WAS IN SHOCK FOR A LONG TIME.
Narrator: EVENTUALLY, SHE MEETS A NEW MAN,
AND THEY HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS.
BUT LATER, THEY SEPARATE, AND KELLY AGAIN MUST MOVE ON.
IN 2010, SHE AND HER 15-YEAR-OLD DAUGHTER
MOVE INTO A RENTAL HOUSE IN CINCINNATI.
WE HAD MOVED INTO A HOUSE WE WERE RENTING
IN CINCINNATI, OHIO.
IT WAS REALLY, REALLY BIG AND REALLY CUTE.
I HAD A NICE YARD.
I LOVED THE NEIGHBORHOOD.
HEY, MOM.
OH. THERE YOU ARE.
I WAS WAITING FOR YOU.
I WANT TO HEAR ALL ABOUT YOUR FIRST DAY.
SIT.
IT WAS ME AND MY DAUGHTER SAMANTHA.
MY OLDER DAUGHTER, HEATHER, HAD GONE OFF TO COLLEGE.
SO, HOW WAS IT?
[ SIGHS ] IT WAS OKAY.
I WAS JUST STARTING MY FRESHMAN YEAR IN HIGH SCHOOL.
THE HOUSE WAS PERFECT FOR ME AND MY MOM.
MET A COUPLE OF GIRLS WHO AREN'T TOTALLY HORRIBLE.
OH, AREN'T TOTALLY HORRIBLE, HUH?
SHE'S VERY, VERY FRIENDLY.
SHE'S EASY TO GET ALONG WITH,
VERY SWEET, LOTS OF FRIENDS.
SHE'S A GOOD KID.
WELL, I MADE A LOT OF PROGRESS HERE.
I GOT THE WHOLE KITCHEN UNPACKED.
GOOD. I'M STARVING.
WHAT'S FOR DINNER?
[ SIGHS ] I'M EXHAUSTED FROM ALL THE UNPACKING.
LET'S JUST ORDER OUT. -[ LAUGHS ] YES. YES.
PIZZA?
SURE.
I WAS LOOKING REALLY FORWARD TO THE AREA AND THE HOUSE.
IT WAS A NEW START.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT PEPPERONI?
-OH, AGAIN? -YES, SORRY. [ CHUCKLES ]
WE WERE JUST REALLY EXCITED ABOUT THE HOUSE.
IT WAS PERFECT FOR US.
**
Narrator: AND FOR KELLY AND HER DAUGHTER SAMANTHA,
CINCINNATI IS THE PERFECT PLACE FOR THAT NEW START.
Kelly: CINCINNATI'S A FAIRLY BIG CITY.
A LOT OF FAMILY-ORIENTED PLACES THAT YOU CAN GO TO.
THE NEIGHBORHOOD WAS AWESOME.
IT WAS QUIET, BUT FRIENDLY AT THE SAME TIME.
WE HAD NEIGHBORS ACROSS THE STREET THAT HAD LOTS OF KIDS
THAT WE WOULD TALK TO OUTSIDE.
BUT, YEAH, IT WAS WONDERFUL.
GREAT NEIGHBORHOOD.
Narrator: OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS,
MOTHER AND DAUGHTER SETTLE IN.
**
Kelly: YOU ALMOST FINISHED WITH THAT?
WE NEED TO GET YOUR BOOKS FOR SCHOOL.
WHO'S WITH YOU IN THIS PICTURE?
[ Chuckling ] OH.
CAN'T BELIEVE I STILL HAVE THIS.
IT WAS SO LONG AGO.
DO YOU REMEMBER ME TELLING YOU ABOUT CHRIS?
THE GUY I DATED BEFORE YOUR FATHER?
Samantha: MY MOM INFORMED ME THAT THERE WAS A GUY
THAT SHE HAD BEEN SEEING, NAMED CHRIS,
WHEN SHE WAS YOUNGER,
AND HE DIED IN AN UNFORTUNATE BAR FIGHT.
EVEN THOUGH I HAD NEVER KNOWN HIM,
HIM AND MY MOM WERE CLOSE.
THE GUY WHO WAS KILLED?
-YEAH. -SO SAD.
HE WAS REALLY SPECIAL.
Kelly: I THOUGHT, WHERE WOULD IT HAVE GONE?
EVEN THOUGH WE WERE YOUNG, WOULD WE STILL BE TOGETHER?
I DEFINITELY MISSED HIM. DEFINITELY.
**
Narrator: BUT KELLY REMAINS FOCUSED ON HER FUTURE
AND MAKING HER HOUSE A HOME.
[ DISHES RATTLE ]
[ CLATTER ]
Kelly: I HEARD NOISES,
LIKE SOMEONE WAS THROWING STUFF AROUND.
SAMANTHA? YEAH?
DID YOU HEAR THAT?
[ MUSIC PLAYING THROUGH EARBUD ]
**
[ BANG ]
**
[ BANG ]
**
[ GASPS ] SAMANTHA.
WHOA, MOM. YOU SCARED ME.
EASY.
HEY, HAYLEY WANTS TO KNOW
IF I CAN GO TO THE MOVIES TONIGHT.
WHO'S HAYLEY?
MY NEW FRIEND FROM SCHOOL.
EVERYONE'S GONNA BE THERE. CAN I GO?
SURE.
BUT BE HOME BY 9:30.
[ Laughing ] OKAY. OKAY.
I'M GONNA GO GET READY.
THANK YOU.
[ CHUCKLES ]
WHA-- THE HECK?
WHEN I TURNED AROUND,
I NOTICED THE DOOR HAD COME UNHITCHED.
I SWEAR I LOCKED THIS.
I THOUGHT ABOUT IT FOR A SECOND
AND SAID, YOU KNOW, "THAT'S WEIRD,"
BUT I KIND OF BRUSHED IT OFF AND DISMISSED IT.
Narrator: A FEW NIGHTS LATER,
SAMANTHA INVITES HER NEW FRIEND OVER
WHILE HER MOM IS AT WORK.
[ SIGHS ] OKAY, UNPAUSE IT.
DO WE HAVE TO WATCH SOMETHING SO SCARY?
COME ON. IT'S ALL FAKE, ANYWAY.
OKAY.
[ EERIE MUSIC PLAYING OVER TELEVISION ]
[ WOMAN SCREAMS ]
[ CREAK ]
[ TELEVISION MUTES ]
WHAT WAS THAT?
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
OH, COME ON. DON'T BE CHICKEN.
[ EERIE MUSIC RESTARTS, WOMAN SCREAMS ]
[ CREAK, THUDDING ]
I STARTED TO HEAR FOOTSTEPS THAT WERE VERY LOUD,
AS IF IT WAS A LARGER PERSON
STEPPING, ALMOST ANGRILY, THROUGH THE HOUSE.
[ THUDDING CONTINUES ]
MY MOM'S PROBABLY HOME FROM WORK.
STAY HERE. I'LL GO CHECK.
**
[ THUDDING CONTINUES ]
[ CREAK ]
[ GASPS ] MOM?
[ LIGHT SWITCH CLICKS ]
I DIDN'T REALLY SEE ANYTHING.
I KIND OF STOOD THERE FOR A SECOND AND PONDERED.
YOU KNOW, "MAYBE I'M REALLY TIRED."
MOM?
[ THUDDING CONTINUES ]
[ BREATHING SHAKILY ]
**
[ GASPING ]
MOM?
[ THUDDING ]
[ BREATHING SHAKILY ]

[ GASPING ]
Narrator: 15-YEAR-OLD SAMANTHA CATALINE
IS IN THE THROES OF A PARANORMAL ATTACK.
Samantha: I REALLY COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.
I WAS SO SCARED.
MY MIND IS TELLING ME TO RUN,
BUT MY FEAR IS TELLING ME, DON'T MOVE.
[ WHIMPERING ]
ARE YOU OKAY? WHAT?
[ DOORKNOB RATTLES ]
[ BOTH SCREAM ]
WHOA!
SAM...WHOA.
IT'S ME. IT'S MOM.
WHAT IS WRONG?
SHE WAS VERY UPSET AND SHAKING.
WE HEARD FOOTSTEPS. OKAY, OKAY.
A-AND AT FIRST, I THOUGHT HAYLEY WAS KIDDING,
BUT THEN I HEARD THEM, TOO,
SO I CAME TO THE KITCHEN TO SEE IF IT WAS YOU,
AND IT WASN'T.
SHE HAD BEEN HEARING FOOTSTEPS,
AND HER PURSE JUST FLEW OFF THE TABLE.
OKAY. JUST CALM DOWN.
OKAY? [ WHIMPERS ]
WHAT WERE -- WHAT WERE YOU GUYS WATCHING?
WERE YOU -- WERE YOU WATCHING A SCARY MOVIE?
YES, WE WERE WATCHING A SCARY MOVIE,
BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT IT WAS. WE HEARD IT.
YOU GUYS ARE JUST IMAGINING IT.
IT'S FINE. I TOLD YOU NOT TO WATCH THOSE THINGS.
WE WEREN'T IMAGINING IT. IT'S ALL RIGHT.
I'M SERIOUS, MOM.
O-OKAY. OKAY.
YOU SHOULDN'T WATCH THOSE MOVIES.
YOU HAVE TO GET HAYLEY HOME, OKAY?
HAYLEY, GET YOUR BACKPACK.
Kelly: I THOUGHT THEY WERE JUST BEING SCARED TEENAGERS,
BEING IN THE HOUSE ALONE -- AND A NEW HOUSE AT THAT.
MOM, I'M SERIOUS.
SWEETIE, IT'S OKAY. OKAY?
YOU'RE NOT LISTENING TO ME.
Samantha: AT THAT POINT,
MY MOM KIND OF PLAYED IT OFF LIKE, "IT'S NOTHING.
LET'S JUST IGNORE IT AND PUT IT TO THE SIDE."
AND IT BOTHERED ME.
IT -- IT WAS BOTHERING ME THAT THIS WAS GOING ON
AND NOBODY WANTED TO TALK ABOUT IT.
Narrator: BUT AS THE DAYS PASS,
STRANGE THINGS KEEP HAPPENING IN THE HOME.
[ SIGHS ] I HATE SCIENCE.
WHY DO I HAVE TO DO THIS PROJECT?
COLLEGE.
YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS FOR COLLEGE.
[ LAUGHS ]
OH, BORING. I LIKE CALCULUS WAY BETTER.
[ LIGHT CLICKING ]
Kelly: WE WERE SITTING AT THE KITCHEN TABLE,
AND ALL THE APPLIANCES IN THE FAMILY ROOM STARTED FLASHING.
TV, EVERYTHING THAT WAS PLUGGED IN.
EVEN THE LIGHTS THAT WEREN'T ON STARTED FLASHING.
THIS IS WEIRD.
MUST BE A SHORT.
MY MOM GOT UP, AND SHE UNPLUGGED EVERYTHING IN THE LIVING ROOM.
IT FREAKED HER OUT.
Kelly: I UNPLUGGED THE TV, BUT IT STILL KEPT GOING.
[ ELECTRICITY BUZZING ]
**
[ PICTURE FRAME CLATTERS ]
**
I WAS WATCHING A MOVIE, AND I HAD FALLEN ASLEEP.
THEN I LOOKED UP, AND I SAW IN BRIGHT LETTERS
"I LOVE YOU."
I JUST KIND OF STARED AT IT FOR A MINUTE,
AND THEN I WAS LIKE, "THAT'S WEIRD."
IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MOVIE.
SO, AT THAT POINT, I BACKED UP THE DVD,
AND IT WAS NOWHERE ON THE MOVIE.
**
ALL OF A SUDDEN, I FELT LIKE SOMEONE WAS WATCHING ME.
Narrator: KELLY BEGINS TO WONDER IF HER DAUGHTER IS RIGHT.
BUT IF THERE IS A GHOST IN THE HOUSE,
WHY WOULD IT BE SENDING KELLY A LOVE MESSAGE?
**
[ BIRDS CHIRPING ]
A FEW DAYS LATER,
KELLY BEGINS HEARING ODD NOISES AGAIN.
[ KNOCKING ]
SAM?
Kelly: I KEPT HEARING A KNOCKING.
I COULDN'T TELL WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM AT FIRST,
AND THEN I REALIZED IT WAS COMING FROM THE ATTIC.
[ KNOCKING, SCRATCHING ]
**
IT SOUNDED LIKE A PERSON'S FINGER TAPPING
AND SAYING "LET ME OUT OF HERE."
I KNEW AT THAT POINT THAT IT WAS SOMEONE IN THERE
WANTING ME TO OPEN THE DOOR.
[ KNOCKING, SCRATCHING CONTINUES ]
**
[ WHOOSH ]
[ GASPS ]
**
Narrator: KELLY CATALINE
IS HAVING PARANORMAL FRIGHTS IN HER HOME.
SO FAR, THE EVENTS HAVE BEEN HARMLESS, ALMOST PLAYFUL.
Kelly: "I LOVE YOU," SOMEONE KNOCKING --
IT DIDN'T SCARE ME.
[ GASPS ]
**
Narrator: KELLY BEGINS TO SUSPECT
IT'S THE SPIRIT OF HER BOYFRIEND
WHO WAS KILLED IN A BAR FIGHT YEARS AGO.
I LOVE YOU. I LOVE YOU, TOO.
BYE.
GET AWAY FROM ME.
GET AWAY --
[ GRUNTS ]
CHRIS?
IS THAT YOU?
**
Narrator: EVEN THOUGH HER DAUGHTER
HAS ALSO SENSED A GHOST IN THE HOUSE,
KELLY DECIDES NOT TO TELL HER ABOUT CHRIS.
I DIDN'T WANT TO TELL MY DAUGHTER SAMANTHA,
EVEN THOUGH SHE KNEW IT HERSELF.
I DIDN'T WANT TO SCARE HER.
[ CREAKING ]
**
DURING THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, I WOKE UP,
AND I FELT VERY UNEASY, AS IF I WAS BEING WATCHED.
[ CREAKING CONTINUES ]
I GOT UP.
IT SOUNDED LIKE MAYBE SOMEONE WAS IN THE HALLWAY.
**
[ GASPING ]
WHEN I TURNED AROUND,
I CAME FACE-TO-FACE WITH THIS DARK FIGURE.
AND IT WAS VERY TALL,
AND YOU COULD DEFINITELY TELL IT WAS A MAN.
A VERY COLD SENSE CAME OVER ME.
[ GASPING ]
I WAS TERRIFIED.
[ SOBBING, SCREAMS ]
[ MOANS ]
[ SCREAMING ]
SAM?
[ SOBBING ] HONEY?
HONEY, WHAT'S WRONG?
ARE YOU OKAY?
SHE WAS CRYING AND SHE WAS SHAKING
AND SHE WAS VERY, VERY UPSET.
I SAW THIS THING.
I-IT LOOKED LIKE A MAN, BUT IT WAS ALL DARK.
HONEY. HONEY. HONEY.
ARE YOU -- OKAY, OKAY.
SHH, SHH.
OKAY, DO YOU REMEMBER, I TOLD YOU ABOUT CHRIS,
MY EX-BOYFRIEND?
THE -- THE ONE WHO DIED?
-YEAH. -OKAY.
I THINK THAT HIS SPIRIT IS IN THE HOUSE.
IT MUST BE WHAT YOU SAW.
NO, NO. THAT'S NOT IT.
YES, HONEY.
Samantha: SHE BELIEVED IT WAS HER EX-BOYFRIEND, CHRIS,
AND THAT HE WAS TRYING TO PROTECT US,
AND HE WOULDN'T HARM US IN ANY WAY.
HE JUST STARTLED YOU.
HIS SPIRIT IS FINE. IT'S PROTECTING US.
OKAY? YES. YES.
HE WOULDN'T HURT US.
HE'S NOT PROTECTING US.
SAM!
Narrator: OVER THE NEXT FEW WEEKS,
KELLY BEGINS TO SENSE THE PRESENCE OF CHRIS
ALL THE TIME.
Kelly: IT WAS VERY COMFORTING,
THINKING THAT CHRIS WAS IN THE HOUSE
AND WAS WATCHING OVER US.

[ GROWL ]
[ KNOCKING ]
[ GROWLING ]
[ GASPS, SCREAMS ]
Narrator: UNBEKNOWNST TO KELLY AND SAMANTHA CATALINE,
A BATTLE BETWEEN GOOD AND EVIL IS RAGING WITHIN THEIR HOME.
[ GROWL ]
[ KNOCKING ]
[ GROWLING ]
[ GASPS, SCREAMS ]
I WOKE UP OUT OF NOWHERE, AND IT WAS SO PAINFUL.
I SCREAMED OUT FOR MY MOM, AND SHE RAN IN THE ROOM.
I'M HERE. I'M HERE. I'M HERE. WHAT HAPPENED?
-OH, IT HURTS! -WHAT HAPPENED? WHAT?
IT HURTS!
OH, MY GOD.
I LIFTED UP MY SHIRT,
AND I HAD SCRATCH MARKS THAT WERE VERY FRESH,
AND IT SCARED ME TO DEATH.
[ SOBBING ]
I WAS SHOCKED AND SCARED AT THE SAME MOMENT.
I COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I WAS SEEING.
OKAY, OKAY. YOU'RE GONNA SLEEP WITH ME TONIGHT.
HERE, COME ON. COME ON.
LET'S GO. LET'S GO.
Narrator: FOR SAMANTHA, THE SCRATCHES ARE PROOF
THAT WHATEVER IS IN THEIR HOME IS EVIL.
Samantha: FROM THAT NIGHT ON, I SLEPT IN BED WITH MY MOM.
I DID NOT WANT TO BE ALONE.
I KNEW THAT I WAS IN HARM,
AND I DIDN'T -- I DIDN'T WANT TO BE THERE AT ALL.
I DIDN'T WANT TO BE IN MY ROOM.
I WAS VERY SCARED.
Kelly: YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AT THAT POINT.
I WANTED TO MOVE, BUT FINANCIALLY,
WE HAD JUST PUT A DEPOSIT DOWN ON THIS HOUSE,
AND I WAS AFRAID TO BREAK THE LEASE --
THAT THEY WOULD COME AFTER US FOR THE REMAINING OF THE LEASE.
AND I COULDN'T AFFORD TWO PLACES.
I WAS A SINGLE MOM.
I HAD NO SUPPORT FROM HER FATHER.
I FELT HELPLESS AT THAT POINT, THAT I COULDN'T DO ANYTHING.

Narrator: TRAPPED IN THE HOUSE WITH THE EVIL ENTITY,
KELLY AND SAMANTHA HAVE NO IDEA
OF THE FIGHT THE GHOST OF CHRIS HAS AHEAD OF HIM
TO KEEP THEM SAFE.
[ GROWL ]
[ BIRDS CHIRPING ]

WHAT SHE BELIEVES TO BE A GOOD GHOST IN HER HOME --
UNTIL NOW.
[ BANGING ]
[ SCREAMS ]
Kelly: THE DOOR FLEW OFF THE HINGES, TAKING THE WOOD WITH IT.
IT DIDN'T JUST FALL.
IT LITERALLY LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE RIPPED IT OFF.
FROM THAT POINT ON, I WAS TERRIFIED.
[ BREATHING HEAVILY ]
MOM?
WHAT HAPPENED?
Samantha: I COULD SEE THAT SHE WAS VERY SCARED.
AND FOR HER TO SHOW THAT TO ME,
I KNEW THAT IT HAD TO HAVE FRIGHTENED HER VERY BAD.
I -- I...
YOU WERE RIGHT.
WHAT?
I -- I HEARD A NOISE,
AND THEN THE DOOR STARTED SHAKING,
AND THEN IT FLEW OFF ITS HINGES,
AND IT JUST -- IT JUST -- SOMETHING JUST HIT MY ARM.
OH, MY GOD!
WHATEVER THIS IS, IT'S NOT CHRIS.
HE WOULDN'T DO THIS.
WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO?
I DON'T KNOW.
Kelly: AT THAT POINT, I KNEW IT WASN'T CHRIS.
I -- I KNEW IT WASN'T ANYBODY THAT CARED ABOUT US.
I KNEW IT WAS SOMETHING BAD.
Samantha: AFTER EVERYTHING HAD HAPPENED,
MY MOM AND I, OUR ATTITUDE TOWARDS THE HOUSE
COMPLETELY CHANGED
FROM WHEN WE FIRST GOT THERE -- THIS IS OUR DREAM HOME.
IT WAS EVERYTHING TO US.
AND NOW, WHEN WE WERE HOME TOGETHER,
WE WOULDN'T BE IN A ROOM WITHOUT ONE ANOTHER.
IT DIDN'T FEEL LIKE HOME ANYMORE.
WE FELT LIKE WE WERE STUCK THERE
AND THAT THERE REALLY
WASN'T ANYTHING AT THE TIME WE COULD DO ABOUT IT.
WE DIDN'T FEEL COMFORTABLE AT ALL.
Narrator: KELLY FINALLY REALIZES THEY NEED HELP.
SHE INVITES LOCAL PARANORMAL EXPERTS
TO INVESTIGATE THE HOUSE.
WHEN WE FIRST WALKED IN, THE ENERGY WAS REALLY NEGATIVE.
YOU COULD TELL IT WAS JUST HEAVY.
AND IT WAS AN INDICATOR
THAT SOMETHING WAS HAPPENING IN THE HOUSE.
WHEN KELLY CONTACTED ME,
SHE HAD A STRESS LEVEL IN HER VOICE I COULD PICK UP ON
THAT SHE WAS REALLY CONCERNED ABOUT HER FAMILY.
THE DOORS WERE BEING SLAMMED.
ONE OF THEM HAD ACTUALLY BEEN SLAMMED SO HARD
IT CRACKED THE WOOD.
AND SHE WAS GETTING SCRATCHED.
-OH, MY GOD! -[ SOBBING ]
-THEY WERE GETTING TOUCHED. -[ SCREAMS ]
I WAS IN LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR 14 YEARS.
I WAS WITH, YOU KNOW, SHERIFF'S OFFICE
AND THEN I WAS WITH LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENTS.
BECAUSE OF MY LAW ENFORCEMENT BACKGROUND,
I TAKE A DIFFERENT APPROACH TO PARANORMAL INVESTIGATING
BY THE METHODS THAT I USE TO INVESTIGATE
THE EVIDENCE THAT'S PRESENTED.
Narrator: THE TEAM DECIDES TO BEGIN AN EVP SESSION.
FOR HER SAFETY, KELLY'S DAUGHTER SAMANTHA IS NOT PRESENT.
[ CAMERA BEEPS ]
Dale: EVP STANDS FOR "ELECTRONIC VOICE PHENOMENON."
IT'S A SESSION WHERE YOU TRY TO CONTACT SPIRITS.
AND YOU CAN PICK SOUNDS UP WITH DIGITAL RECORDING DEVICES
THAT YOU WON'T BE ABLE TO HEAR WITH THE HUMAN EAR.
[ RECORDER BEEPS ]
ARE YOU WITH THE HOME?
ARE YOU DEMONIC IN NATURE?
DO YOU MEAN THE FAMILY HARM?
[ GROWL ]
WHAT WAS THAT?
Do you mean the family harm?
[ Indistinct speech ]
What was that?
Dale: WE PICKED UP WHAT WE BELIEVE WERE TWO VOICES.
WE HAD A VOICE SAYING, "GET OUT."
AND THEN WE HAD A GROWING VOICE TELLING US, "I HATE YOU."
I BELIEVE THERE ARE TWO ENTITIES IN YOUR HOUSE --
A PEACEFUL SPIRIT AND A DEMONIC ENTITY.
WE HAD A CONFLICT GOING ON BETWEEN THE TWO.
IT WAS LIKE A SPIRITUAL BATTLE
THAT WAS GOING ON INSIDE THAT HOUSE.
DEMONIC?
I THOUGHT IT WAS CHRIS, MY EX-BOYFRIEND WHO DIED.
I THOUGHT IT WAS HIS SPIRIT TRYING TO COMMUNICATE WITH ME.
CHRIS' SPIRIT IS HERE. HE'S BEEN PROTECTING YOU.
THAT KNOCKING YOU'VE BEEN HEARING --
WELL, THAT'S BEEN CHRIS.
HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?
WELL... [ SIGHS ]
I BELIEVE THAT THEY SOMEHOW FOLLOWED YOU HERE.
DO YOU KNOW ANYONE IN THE OCCULT?
OR HAVE YOU YOURSELF EVER TRIED TO COMMUNICATE
WITH THE SPIRIT WORLD?
OH, MY GOD.
THE CEMETERY.
Narrator: SUDDENLY, KELLY REMEMBERS PAYING A VISIT TO CHRIS' GRAVE
A FEW YEARS PRIOR TO MOVING INTO HER CURRENT HOME.
Kelly: I WAS JUST TRYING TO GET SOME ANSWERS.
WAS HE OKAY?
I HAD UNANSWERED QUESTIONS ABOUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED TO HIM,
SO I DECIDED TO USE A SPIRIT BOARD
TO COMMUNICATE WITH HIM.
CHRIS?
CHRIS, CAN YOU HEAR ME?
GIVE ME A SIGN YOU'RE HERE.
**
CHRIS -- I WENT TO HIS GRAVE,
AND I USED THIS SPIRIT-BOARD THING
TO TRY AND COMMUNICATE WITH HIM.
A SPIRIT BOARD?
DID YOU CLOSE DOWN THE COMMUNICATION?
DID YOU SAY GOODBYE?
I JUST GOT...FREAKED, AND I LEFT.
[ SIGHS ]
I BELIEVE YOU UNKNOWINGLY OPENED A PORTAL.
Dale: KELLY BROKE COMMUNICATION, AND SHE LEFT THE CEMETERY,
BUT SHE NEVER CLOSED THE PORTAL.
THIS ALLOWED CHRIS' SPIRIT TO COME THROUGH,
AS WELL AS A DEMONIC ENTITY.
IT MADE ME FEEL GUILTY THAT IT WAS MY FAULT.
WHAT DO WE DO?
WE HAVE TO DO A CLEANSING IMMEDIATELY.
NOW, CAN YOU TAKE US
TO THE MOST ACTIVE SPOT IN THE HOUSE?
MM-HMM. YEAH.
Dale: WHEN YOU INFORM SOMEBODY
THAT THEY HAVE A DEMONIC ENTITY IN THEIR HOUSE,
IT'S VERY OVERWHELMING AND TERRIFYING FOR THEM.
ALL OF A SUDDEN, NOW IT'S IN THEIR HOUSE,
AND NOW WHAT DO THEY DO?
THEY HAVE NO IDEA.
THIS IS WHERE THE DOOR STARTED SHAKING
AND FLEW OFF THE HINGES AT ME.
KELLY AND SAMANTHA WERE IN DANGER
IF THEY STAYED IN THAT HOUSE.
AT SOME POINT IN TIME,
SOMEBODY WOULD EITHER HAVE BEEN HURT
OR POSSIBLY POSSESSED BY THIS DEMON.

IT'S GONE.

WE KNEW THE SPIRITS WERE GONE.
WE KNEW THEY WERE OUT OF THE HOUSE.
THE THICKNESS IN THE AIR LEFT. AND IT FELT LIGHT AGAIN.
AND CHRIS?
HE'S AT PEACE. OH.
HE'S CROSSED OVER.
Dale: CHRIS FELT AT THAT POINT THAT HIS WORK HERE WAS DONE,
AND HE NO LONGER HAD TO PROTECT THE FAMILY.
IT WAS A RELIEF, 'CAUSE I KNEW HE WAS GONNA FIND PEACE.
LISTEN TO ME.
YOU MUST GET PAST THIS.
ANYTIME YOU FOCUS ON THE HAUNTING,
IT CAN ALLOW THE SPIRIT TO COME BACK.
YOU AND YOUR FAMILY ARE SAFE NOW.
OKAY. THANK YOU.

WE -- WE CAN KEEP THE HOUSE. IT'S GONNA BE OKAY."

HOW ABOUT THIS ONE?
OOH, I LIKE THE SILVER.

-WHAT ABOUT MY DRESS? -IT DOESN'T MATTER.
I'LL TAKE CARE OF IT LATER. WE'RE NOT STAYING HERE.
Samantha: THAT MOMENT, WE REALIZED, "WE'VE GOT TO GO."
WE FELT COMPLETELY HELPLESS, AND WE WANTED TO RUN.

Narrator: KELLY AND SAMANTHA ABANDON THEIR DREAM HOME,
ONLY RETURNING TO PACK THEIR BELONGINGS.
Kelly: I THINK IT CHANGED ME A LOT.
IT'S MADE ME OPEN MY EYES MORE TO THE SPIRIT WORLD.

I WOULD DOUBT ANYTHING IN THE PARANORMAL
AFTER GOING THROUGH THAT.
I'M 100% FULL BELIEVER NOW.
SO, I COMPLETELY BELIEVE
THAT A SPIRIT COULD HARM YOU IN ANY WAY IT WANTED TO
IF IT HAD THE ENERGY TO DO SO,
AND THAT FRIGHTENS ME.
I DON'T THINK I'LL EVER BE

Kelly: I THINK THE DEMON IS PROBABLY STILL IN THERE.
IT DIDN'T LEAVE.
