1
00:00:01,400 --> 00:00:02,800
[Zak] Hereat the WinchesterMystery House...
2
00:00:02,800 --> 00:00:04,233
Harry Houdini, are you here?
3
00:00:04,233 --> 00:00:07,767
If ever there was a person
who was ever going to escape
the other side,
4
00:00:07,767 --> 00:00:09,367
it would be Harry Houdini.
5
00:00:09,367 --> 00:00:11,166
We're going
to use your energy,
6
00:00:11,166 --> 00:00:14,066
a blood relative
of Harry Houdini...
7
00:00:14,066 --> 00:00:16,367
With your flesh and blood
beside us here,
8
00:00:16,367 --> 00:00:19,000
Houdini, make
your presence clear.
9
00:00:19,000 --> 00:00:20,567
Escape from death.
10
00:00:20,567 --> 00:00:21,867
[man 1] Oh, my God!
11
00:00:21,867 --> 00:00:23,767
-Houdini!
-[man 2] It just said Houdini.
12
00:00:23,767 --> 00:00:24,700
[man 3] Who just called
Houdini?
13
00:00:31,000 --> 00:00:34,800
[Zak] There are thingsin this world that we willnever fully understand.
14
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:35,767
[Zak in ghostly voice]
Understand.
15
00:00:36,367 --> 00:00:39,500
[echoing] We want answers.
16
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:42,667
We have worked years to buildour credibility,
17
00:00:43,367 --> 00:00:44,900
our reputation.
18
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,667
Working alongsidethe most renownedprofessionals in the field.
19
00:00:51,467 --> 00:00:53,600
Capturing groundbreaking proof
20
00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:55,166
-of the paranormal.
-It's working!
21
00:00:55,166 --> 00:00:57,166
-[man] Whoa!
-I can't give you
an explanation.
22
00:00:59,066 --> 00:01:00,900
[Zak] This is our evidence,
23
00:01:01,467 --> 00:01:03,100
our host Adventures.
24
00:01:09,166 --> 00:01:13,266
We're at the WinchesterMystery Housein San Jose, California.
25
00:01:13,266 --> 00:01:16,767
Arguably the world'smost famous haunted house.
26
00:01:18,467 --> 00:01:20,367
This maze-like mansion,
27
00:01:20,367 --> 00:01:24,166
saturated with the dark energyof the countless deaths
28
00:01:24,166 --> 00:01:27,500
causedby the Winchester familygun business
29
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:30,700
was already hugely compelling.
30
00:01:30,700 --> 00:01:33,166
But now we've discovereda connection
31
00:01:33,166 --> 00:01:35,900
to legendary magicianand escape artist,
32
00:01:35,900 --> 00:01:37,467
Harry Houdini.
33
00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:48,000
In the midstof a 1924 nationwide tour,
34
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:50,166
in whichhe aggressively debunked
35
00:01:50,166 --> 00:01:53,400
fraudulent spiritualistsand mediums,
36
00:01:53,400 --> 00:01:56,767
Houdini made a midnight visitto the mansion.
37
00:01:56,767 --> 00:01:59,567
He later describeda seance room
38
00:01:59,567 --> 00:02:02,967
without cornersand a vast wardrobe,
39
00:02:02,967 --> 00:02:06,300
containing a different robefor each spirit.
40
00:02:07,500 --> 00:02:09,600
But he didn't debunk anything.
41
00:02:11,367 --> 00:02:15,734
Is this the place that provedthe paranormalfor Harry Houdini?
42
00:02:18,166 --> 00:02:20,567
We gatherin the grand ballroom,
43
00:02:20,567 --> 00:02:25,100
which cost more to buildthan the average priceof an entire home at the time.
44
00:02:26,500 --> 00:02:27,600
What's up, guys?
45
00:02:29,367 --> 00:02:32,800
Guys, Harry Houdini.
46
00:02:33,400 --> 00:02:34,567
Very mysterious man.
47
00:02:35,100 --> 00:02:37,200
Very magical man.
48
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:39,266
And a great escape artist.
49
00:02:39,266 --> 00:02:42,200
Harry Houdini,born Eric Weisz,
50
00:02:42,200 --> 00:02:45,567
achieved worldwide famefor dangerous stunts
51
00:02:45,567 --> 00:02:51,000
in which he freed himselffrom handcuffs, straitjackets,and near drowning.
52
00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,066
[crowd cheering]
53
00:02:55,266 --> 00:02:58,667
It is the 100 year anniversary
54
00:02:59,300 --> 00:03:01,767
of Houdini's presence
55
00:03:01,767 --> 00:03:08,166
in this extremely mysterious
and haunted mansion.
56
00:03:09,266 --> 00:03:11,867
The mansionwas obsessively built up
57
00:03:11,867 --> 00:03:15,767
by Sarah Winchesterover 38 years.
58
00:03:15,767 --> 00:03:18,400
She was reportedly toldby a spiritualist
59
00:03:18,400 --> 00:03:22,467
that the spirit rotsin the housethat doesn't grow.
60
00:03:22,467 --> 00:03:27,166
And that the reasona person dies is becausethat person does not continue
61
00:03:27,166 --> 00:03:30,300
to build additionsto the housein which she lives.
62
00:03:32,367 --> 00:03:36,000
It is also said that Sarahcontinually added to the house
63
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:40,900
as a way of confusingthe spirits of those killedby the guns manufactured
64
00:03:40,900 --> 00:03:43,500
by the WinchesterRepeating Arms Company:
65
00:03:43,500 --> 00:03:47,066
Her late husband William'smassively profitable
66
00:03:47,066 --> 00:03:50,166
19th century weaponsmanufacturing business.
67
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:56,166
Now, the mansion covers24,000 square feet,
68
00:03:56,166 --> 00:04:02,200
has 160 rooms, 2,000 doorsand 10,000 windows.
69
00:04:03,800 --> 00:04:07,000
Now, years
after Houdini's death,
70
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:09,166
there was a lot of publicity
in the newspapers
71
00:04:09,166 --> 00:04:12,266
about a bunch of people
wanted to do a seance here.
72
00:04:12,266 --> 00:04:16,300
Including some magicians
and even his widow Bess.
73
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:19,266
Houdini and his wife Bess
74
00:04:19,266 --> 00:04:21,467
had an understandingthat the first to die
75
00:04:21,467 --> 00:04:24,867
would try to contactthe other from the afterlife.
76
00:04:24,867 --> 00:04:28,100
They came upwith a code phrase,
77
00:04:28,100 --> 00:04:29,600
"Rosabelle Believe."
78
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:33,200
An intimate referenceto one of theirfavorite songs.
79
00:04:33,800 --> 00:04:36,567
After Harry's death in 1926,
80
00:04:36,567 --> 00:04:40,166
Bess tried unsuccessfullyto reach him via seance
81
00:04:40,166 --> 00:04:42,000
every year on Halloween.
82
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,200
The date of his death.
83
00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:49,100
In 1936, she sat downfor what she calledher final attempt.
84
00:04:50,667 --> 00:04:53,367
Listen to a recordingfrom that very seance
85
00:04:53,367 --> 00:04:57,100
as Bess Houdini describeswhat is happeningin the moment.
86
00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:00,367
Houdini did not come through.
87
00:05:01,266 --> 00:05:03,066
My last hope is gone.
88
00:05:03,900 --> 00:05:05,266
It is finished.
89
00:05:05,867 --> 00:05:07,567
Good night, Harry.
90
00:05:09,900 --> 00:05:13,500
[Zak] But in 1938,Bess decided to try again
91
00:05:13,500 --> 00:05:16,100
at the WinchesterMystery House.
92
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:18,967
And it was planned.
93
00:05:18,967 --> 00:05:20,967
Everything was all set up.
94
00:05:20,967 --> 00:05:23,667
But for whatever reason,
it didn't happen.
95
00:05:26,100 --> 00:05:28,100
What powerful effectdid the mansion have
96
00:05:28,100 --> 00:05:32,967
to convince Bessto change her mindand try again?
97
00:05:32,967 --> 00:05:36,100
And what stopped herfrom going through with it?
98
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:40,767
What we are going to do,
99
00:05:40,767 --> 00:05:44,600
We are going to do the seance
that never happened.
100
00:05:44,600 --> 00:05:45,767
[laughing]
101
00:05:45,767 --> 00:05:48,967
But we're not just doing
any seance.
102
00:05:48,967 --> 00:05:50,967
-I just got chills.
-I know, man.
103
00:05:50,967 --> 00:05:56,600
We are inviting
his only known blood relative
to our seance.
104
00:05:57,100 --> 00:05:59,400
Mr. George Hardeen.
105
00:06:00,467 --> 00:06:04,367
George Hardeen's grandfather,Theodore Hardeen,
106
00:06:04,367 --> 00:06:05,800
was Houdini's brother.
107
00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:09,166
Making George Houdini'sgreat nephew.
108
00:06:09,166 --> 00:06:11,200
We are going
to use your energy,
109
00:06:11,200 --> 00:06:14,066
a blood relative
of Harry Houdini.
110
00:06:14,066 --> 00:06:16,900
You complete the puzzle here.
111
00:06:19,367 --> 00:06:22,667
So for the very first time,
we are gonna use
112
00:06:22,667 --> 00:06:25,700
every piece of equipment
that we have.
113
00:06:25,700 --> 00:06:28,667
We're gonna add some other
scientific instruments
114
00:06:29,200 --> 00:06:31,166
with our technology now.
115
00:06:31,166 --> 00:06:33,800
-And it's a lot more
since 2011.
-[all] Yeah.
116
00:06:33,800 --> 00:06:37,867
-And it's a whole lot more
than the 1930s.
-[Aaron] Yeah.
117
00:06:37,867 --> 00:06:43,367
We, through the usage
of Instrumental
Spirit Communication,
118
00:06:43,367 --> 00:06:47,266
a department
of paranormal research
that we excel,
119
00:06:47,266 --> 00:06:50,867
we are going to tryto get that code word
120
00:06:50,867 --> 00:06:53,000
and a lot more communication
121
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:58,400
in front of the eyes
and ears
of his blood relative.
122
00:06:58,400 --> 00:07:00,266
Dude, what if we get
the secret word?
123
00:07:00,266 --> 00:07:03,300
What if we get something
he says that he needed,
124
00:07:03,300 --> 00:07:04,900
wanted to say?
Like, this is huge.
125
00:07:04,900 --> 00:07:06,667
Ladies and gentlemen,
126
00:07:06,667 --> 00:07:09,767
this is going to be
127
00:07:09,767 --> 00:07:15,500
a monumental seance
and investigation.
128
00:07:15,500 --> 00:07:16,767
-Yeah.
-100%.
129
00:07:21,567 --> 00:07:23,767
[Zak] We will now searchfor areas in the mansion
130
00:07:23,767 --> 00:07:27,500
that Houdiniwould have visited in 1924.
131
00:07:27,500 --> 00:07:32,000
And where his unique energycould still be resonating.
132
00:07:32,000 --> 00:07:35,667
Okay, so we are getting ready
to, uh, make this journey
133
00:07:35,667 --> 00:07:37,900
by following the footsteps
of Harry Houdini
134
00:07:37,900 --> 00:07:41,266
during his visit
here at the Winchester
Mystery House
135
00:07:41,266 --> 00:07:46,266
that is going to lead
to our biggest seance to date.
136
00:07:46,266 --> 00:07:48,400
The seance of Houdini,
137
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:52,867
one hundred years later
after his visit here
at the mansion.
138
00:07:56,867 --> 00:08:00,867
We are joined, uh,
with Walter here,
the general manager.
139
00:08:00,867 --> 00:08:04,400
Also, Olivia, the assistant
tour manager here.
140
00:08:06,367 --> 00:08:09,867
As we make our way throughthis labyrinthine structure,
141
00:08:09,867 --> 00:08:12,900
Olivia reacts to somethingacross the hall.
142
00:08:14,266 --> 00:08:16,300
I thought
I saw someone over there.
143
00:08:16,300 --> 00:08:17,667
[Zak] What happened?
144
00:08:17,667 --> 00:08:20,567
I thought that
I saw someone, possibly.
145
00:08:20,567 --> 00:08:23,800
-[Zak] Where, over here?
-[Olivia] Yeah, there's
a hallway on the other side.
146
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:24,934
[Zak] Okay.
147
00:08:24,934 --> 00:08:29,166
We're taking a minute
because our leader
of the train
148
00:08:29,166 --> 00:08:33,300
thought that she might have
seen somebody over there.
149
00:08:33,300 --> 00:08:37,467
So we're just making sure
that somebody
isn't actually over there.
150
00:08:39,367 --> 00:08:41,000
We're all together in a group
151
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:43,667
and we're the only peopleinside the house.
152
00:08:43,667 --> 00:08:46,567
So there's no living beingin that hallway.
153
00:08:47,867 --> 00:08:51,667
We move now to the roomwhere Houdinisaid Sarah Winchester
154
00:08:51,667 --> 00:08:55,767
hung the multicolored robesshe kept for the spirits.
155
00:08:59,700 --> 00:09:03,700
Houdini said that
when Sarah was getting ready
for her seance,
156
00:09:03,700 --> 00:09:06,967
she had a robeof a different color
157
00:09:06,967 --> 00:09:08,900
for every spiritshe was communicating with
158
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:13,166
and that was documented
in a newspaper article
detailing his appearance.
159
00:09:13,166 --> 00:09:17,500
-[Zak] That article is stating
that Houdini saw these robes.
-[Walter] Correct.
160
00:09:17,500 --> 00:09:22,233
-Her seance robes
may have hung in this closet.
-[Walter] Correct.
161
00:09:24,667 --> 00:09:29,100
[Zak] Now we just haveto find the seance roomwith no corners.
162
00:09:36,567 --> 00:09:40,000
[Zak] As we moveever closer to our seance,
163
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:44,400
Olivia and seniormarketing managerAmelia Richardson
164
00:09:44,400 --> 00:09:49,066
bring out the articleWalter mentioned that detailedHoudini's visit here.
165
00:09:49,066 --> 00:09:52,266
[Amelia] Yeah, so Houdini
personally clipped off
this piece of paper
166
00:09:52,266 --> 00:09:55,367
and put it in an envelope
and sent it to John Brown.
167
00:09:55,367 --> 00:09:57,300
-Really?
-So on the top of it is a sign
168
00:09:57,300 --> 00:09:59,867
that says,
"Regards, Houdini." [laughs]
169
00:09:59,867 --> 00:10:01,266
Houdini signed it?
170
00:10:01,266 --> 00:10:03,166
Yeah, that's why I said
you can't touch it
because it will disintegrate
171
00:10:03,166 --> 00:10:06,100
-because it's a very old piece
of paper. [laughing]
-Oh!
172
00:10:06,100 --> 00:10:08,800
-[Amelia] Surprise.
-I have to touch it.
173
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:10,767
[Amelia laughs]
174
00:10:10,767 --> 00:10:12,567
After some negotiation,
175
00:10:12,567 --> 00:10:17,767
I agreed not to touchthe newspaper which Houdinisent to John Brown,
176
00:10:17,767 --> 00:10:21,700
who took over the houseafter Sarah's death in 1922.
177
00:10:21,700 --> 00:10:24,700
[Olivia] So essentially
he got quoted about
the Winchester Mystery House.
178
00:10:24,700 --> 00:10:26,800
[Zak] Oh, my gosh.
179
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:29,300
This is incredible.
180
00:10:29,300 --> 00:10:32,767
So he literally
has a signature right here.
181
00:10:32,767 --> 00:10:34,600
-[Olivia] Mm-hmm.
-[Zak] Look at Houdini.
182
00:10:34,600 --> 00:10:40,500
Houdini's hand, his eyes
were focused on this article
183
00:10:40,500 --> 00:10:43,767
mentioningthe Winchester Mystery House.
184
00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,567
I take the newspaperinto the ballroom
185
00:10:48,567 --> 00:10:52,467
to see if it elicitsa reaction from Houdinibefore our seance.
186
00:10:53,867 --> 00:10:56,200
We want you to attend
our seance
187
00:10:56,200 --> 00:10:57,867
that we're gonna have
tomorrow night.
188
00:10:58,467 --> 00:11:01,467
Harry Houdini, are you here?
189
00:11:01,467 --> 00:11:06,367
At the very beginning,
there was a 67 milligal spike
190
00:11:06,367 --> 00:11:09,467
as you started
addressing Harry Houdini.
191
00:11:09,467 --> 00:11:10,800
-[Zak] What?
-Yeah.
192
00:11:14,967 --> 00:11:16,233
[Zak] It is commonly believed
193
00:11:16,233 --> 00:11:19,400
that Houdini gavethe Winchester Mystery Houseits name.
194
00:11:20,700 --> 00:11:23,667
Are we feelingthe residual energyof his connection
195
00:11:23,667 --> 00:11:25,667
to this enigmatic structure?
196
00:11:27,900 --> 00:11:29,700
I meet with John Cox,
197
00:11:29,700 --> 00:11:33,300
a renowned experton Houdini's life and legend.
198
00:11:33,300 --> 00:11:34,667
So, uh, John,
199
00:11:34,667 --> 00:11:37,300
there's a lot of sayingsout there
200
00:11:37,300 --> 00:11:39,166
that Harry Houdini
201
00:11:39,166 --> 00:11:44,200
just wanted to really exposespiritualists and mediumsand things like that.
202
00:11:44,200 --> 00:11:46,300
But then I've heard
the other end,
203
00:11:46,300 --> 00:11:49,600
that he was really
into the afterlife.
204
00:11:49,600 --> 00:11:54,300
And that's why they came upwith this whole seance thingwith his wife after he died.
205
00:11:54,300 --> 00:11:58,867
When he was alive,
do you think he visited here
to just expose a medium?
206
00:11:58,867 --> 00:12:04,100
Or did he visit here
to try to, like,
paranormal investigate?
207
00:12:04,100 --> 00:12:07,000
Um, Houdini, he wasn't
an arch-skeptic,
208
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:08,567
the way we think
of some skeptics
209
00:12:08,567 --> 00:12:09,767
who just
don't believe anything
210
00:12:09,767 --> 00:12:11,767
and were out
to expose everything.
211
00:12:11,767 --> 00:12:13,367
Houdini was a seeker.
212
00:12:13,367 --> 00:12:15,367
And he characterized himself
as that.
213
00:12:15,367 --> 00:12:17,100
He said,
I'm seeking the truth.
214
00:12:17,100 --> 00:12:20,200
And he was a believerin spiritualism.
215
00:12:20,200 --> 00:12:23,000
And what he was doingwas he was going to mediums
216
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:24,600
to try and find
the real thing.
217
00:12:24,600 --> 00:12:29,000
He was weeding out
the ones he thought
were full of [bleep]
218
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,367
and trying to find the mediums
that were truly gifted then?
219
00:12:32,367 --> 00:12:33,967
Yes, that is what
he was doing.
220
00:12:33,967 --> 00:12:35,900
But he always
had an open mind,
221
00:12:35,900 --> 00:12:40,100
and he was always ready
to believe
if it would be evidence.
222
00:12:40,100 --> 00:12:43,100
Um, Houdini always tried
to attend these seances
223
00:12:43,100 --> 00:12:45,266
to see
if he can pierce the veil
224
00:12:45,266 --> 00:12:47,367
and get communication
from that other side.
225
00:12:47,367 --> 00:12:49,300
The other side
that he did believe in.
226
00:12:49,300 --> 00:12:53,000
We have received communication
from that other side.
Intelligent.
227
00:12:53,000 --> 00:12:56,567
We've had questions answered
multiple times.
228
00:12:56,567 --> 00:12:58,000
It's irrefutable.
229
00:12:58,000 --> 00:13:02,100
If his spirit is here,
I believe that we can do it.
230
00:13:02,100 --> 00:13:05,767
John brings out an extremelysignificant artifact
231
00:13:05,767 --> 00:13:08,266
to help usreach out to Houdini.
232
00:13:08,266 --> 00:13:11,667
-This has not been shown ever.
-[Zak] Really?
233
00:13:11,667 --> 00:13:14,100
This was called
a spirit trumpet.
234
00:13:14,100 --> 00:13:15,567
A spirit trumpet?
235
00:13:15,567 --> 00:13:17,867
And mediums would set it
in the table,
236
00:13:17,867 --> 00:13:20,000
turn off the lights,
and during the seance,
237
00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:21,467
the trumpet would levitate,
238
00:13:21,467 --> 00:13:23,600
-and the ghost
would speak through it.
-Really?
239
00:13:23,600 --> 00:13:26,266
There is no evidenceof spirit trumpets
240
00:13:26,266 --> 00:13:29,000
actually levitatingduring seances.
241
00:13:30,166 --> 00:13:32,367
That was exactlythe kind of claim
242
00:13:32,367 --> 00:13:34,867
that Houdiniwould have debunked.
243
00:13:34,867 --> 00:13:37,166
This was Houdini's
spirit trumpet.
244
00:13:37,166 --> 00:13:38,867
-Let me tell you
a little story.
-Oh, oh. Hold on.
245
00:13:38,867 --> 00:13:41,567
-That was Houdini's?
-Yes.
246
00:13:41,567 --> 00:13:44,967
This came from his wife,
to a collector,
247
00:13:44,967 --> 00:13:47,300
to another collector,
to me tonight.
248
00:13:48,667 --> 00:13:52,900
[Zak] In this picture,Houdini poseswith Annie Benninghofen,
249
00:13:52,900 --> 00:13:56,900
a spiritualisthe exposed as a fraud.
250
00:13:59,367 --> 00:14:04,467
This was Houdini's
spirit trumpet. Okay?
251
00:14:04,467 --> 00:14:06,600
Just by me touching this
is amazing.
252
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,200
We take Johnto the multicolored robe room
253
00:14:11,200 --> 00:14:15,467
and ask Ameliaabout the seance roomwith no corners.
254
00:14:15,467 --> 00:14:17,800
That would be the witch's cap.
255
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:19,667
-So--
-[John] Where's
the witch's cap?
256
00:14:19,667 --> 00:14:21,000
That's on the top floor.
257
00:14:21,000 --> 00:14:22,066
Can we go to the witch's cap?
258
00:14:22,066 --> 00:14:23,967
Oh, my-- I've never been
to the witch's cap.
259
00:14:23,967 --> 00:14:26,100
-Oh, that's too good.
-Let's go
to the witch's cap, John!
260
00:14:26,100 --> 00:14:27,667
-I love it.
-[Amelia] This
is my favorite room.
261
00:14:27,667 --> 00:14:29,500
Oh, [bleep], I forgot
he was holding the artifact.
262
00:14:29,500 --> 00:14:30,867
-Sorry.
-[man] No, that's fine.
263
00:14:30,867 --> 00:14:32,000
This thing's tough.
264
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,567
This has been beat up
by a lot of spirits.
265
00:14:34,700 --> 00:14:37,567
[Zak] Amelia takes usto the witch's cap,
266
00:14:37,567 --> 00:14:41,367
which may well be the roomwhere Sarah held seances.
267
00:14:42,467 --> 00:14:46,600
And which Houdinimost likely visited in 1924.
268
00:14:47,867 --> 00:14:50,367
Dude, this is creepy up here.
269
00:14:50,367 --> 00:14:52,400
-Different energy up here.
-Yeah.
270
00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:53,867
[Zak] Whoa.
271
00:14:56,767 --> 00:14:57,567
[John] What?
272
00:14:59,266 --> 00:15:00,567
[John] Where at?
273
00:15:00,567 --> 00:15:02,400
Right when I walked in,
it was like...
[imitating laugher]
274
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:04,400
-Really?
-[Aaron] I swear to God.
275
00:15:06,867 --> 00:15:10,000
Well, what I learned
at the Westerfeld House
in San Francisco,
276
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:12,400
where all the ceremonies
were done
277
00:15:12,400 --> 00:15:15,867
from, uh, Kenneth Anger
and Anton LaVey,
278
00:15:15,867 --> 00:15:19,100
is they chose
the top of the turret, right?
279
00:15:19,100 --> 00:15:21,567
-[all] Yeah.
-[man] It was a round room.
280
00:15:21,567 --> 00:15:22,767
[Zak] And they believe
because of the turret,
281
00:15:22,767 --> 00:15:25,367
the energy was channeled up
into the sky,
282
00:15:25,367 --> 00:15:27,266
and they actually removed
the rafters.
283
00:15:27,266 --> 00:15:29,266
-[John] Like a pyramid.
-So this would make sense.
284
00:15:32,867 --> 00:15:36,166
Have we just found the room
285
00:15:36,166 --> 00:15:39,767
-that Houdini
was actually talking about?
-[John] The real seance--
286
00:15:39,767 --> 00:15:41,800
-The real seance chamber.
-Yeah.
287
00:15:49,066 --> 00:15:52,400
[Zak] It's Day Twoat the WinchesterMystery House.
288
00:15:52,400 --> 00:15:55,867
I want to do everything I canto enhance our connection
289
00:15:55,867 --> 00:15:59,100
to Houdiniduring our upcoming seance.
290
00:16:00,367 --> 00:16:03,500
So I send the guysto nearby San Francisco.
291
00:16:05,266 --> 00:16:07,967
The city bookendedHoudini's career.
292
00:16:07,967 --> 00:16:12,266
He got his big breakat the former Orpheum Theaterin 1899,
293
00:16:13,000 --> 00:16:14,700
then returned to San Francisco
294
00:16:14,700 --> 00:16:18,266
at the end of his careerto performin front of massive crowds.
295
00:16:19,667 --> 00:16:21,467
[crowd cheering]
296
00:16:23,900 --> 00:16:26,500
The guys startin the Fisherman'sWharf District
297
00:16:26,500 --> 00:16:28,467
at the Musee Mecanique,
298
00:16:28,467 --> 00:16:30,567
a coin-operated arcade
299
00:16:30,567 --> 00:16:34,200
that evolved outof turn-of-the-centurydime museums
300
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:37,867
that were home to freak showsand outlandish entertainments.
301
00:16:37,867 --> 00:16:40,000
[amusing
instrumental music playing]
302
00:16:42,467 --> 00:16:44,467
Before becominga global sensation,
303
00:16:44,467 --> 00:16:46,667
Houdini toiled in obscurity
304
00:16:46,667 --> 00:16:48,567
in these dime museums.
305
00:16:49,667 --> 00:16:52,800
And even wentby "Dime Museum Harry."
306
00:16:59,266 --> 00:17:02,467
I've asked the guys to visitSan Francisco landmarks
307
00:17:02,467 --> 00:17:04,667
that impacted Houdini's career
308
00:17:04,667 --> 00:17:08,266
and gather physical materialfrom the actual locations
309
00:17:08,266 --> 00:17:12,367
to use as trigger objectsduring the seance.
310
00:17:12,367 --> 00:17:15,767
They meet firstwith Houdini expertDavid Facer
311
00:17:15,767 --> 00:17:19,100
at Houdini's Magic Shopon Pier 39.
312
00:17:19,100 --> 00:17:21,900
This man knew no bounds.
313
00:17:21,900 --> 00:17:23,300
Nothing could hold him.
314
00:17:23,300 --> 00:17:25,800
They always say
if ever there was a person
315
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:30,300
who was ever going to escape
the other side,
it would be Harry Houdini.
316
00:17:30,300 --> 00:17:32,700
[cheering]
317
00:17:34,266 --> 00:17:38,700
[Zak] David brings outa scrapbook and identifiesthree important locations.
318
00:17:40,000 --> 00:17:42,000
First stopon the scavenger hunt
319
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:46,266
is the Hearst Buildingwhere on March 19th, 1923,
320
00:17:46,266 --> 00:17:49,367
Houdini thrilled crowdsby escaping a straitjacket
321
00:17:49,367 --> 00:17:52,266
while hanging upside down50 feet up.
322
00:17:54,100 --> 00:17:58,200
Billy collects a loose pieceof the metal downspout
323
00:17:58,200 --> 00:18:00,800
and the guys moveto the Golden Gate Theater
324
00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,767
where Houdini performedon April 21st, 1923.
325
00:18:05,900 --> 00:18:10,166
Jay discovers a small bitof the stucco exterior
326
00:18:10,166 --> 00:18:12,700
and it's offto the Civic Center Plaza
327
00:18:12,700 --> 00:18:14,467
in central San Francisco
328
00:18:14,467 --> 00:18:18,166
where Houdini narrowly escapeda burning-at-the-stake stunt
329
00:18:18,166 --> 00:18:21,100
on April 7th, 1923.
330
00:18:21,100 --> 00:18:23,567
Aaron sees a loose rockfrom the ground
331
00:18:23,567 --> 00:18:27,367
where Houdini battledthe flames and the searchis complete.
332
00:18:27,367 --> 00:18:31,166
These three highly energetictrigger objects will be
333
00:18:31,166 --> 00:18:33,367
on the tablethroughout our seance
334
00:18:33,367 --> 00:18:36,433
beckoning Houdinito come forth.
335
00:18:38,867 --> 00:18:41,567
While the guysare covering groundin San Francisco,
336
00:18:41,567 --> 00:18:45,700
I meet with George Hardeento prep for our seance.
337
00:18:48,166 --> 00:18:51,867
It is an absolute honor
to be sitting across from you
338
00:18:51,867 --> 00:18:56,567
and for you accepting
our bizarre request
339
00:18:57,066 --> 00:18:59,767
to join in on a seance
340
00:18:59,767 --> 00:19:02,500
where we will be trying
very hard
341
00:19:02,500 --> 00:19:05,266
to see if we can get
any evidence at all
342
00:19:05,266 --> 00:19:08,367
of your great uncle
to come through
343
00:19:08,367 --> 00:19:11,367
and give us
maybe his code word
344
00:19:11,367 --> 00:19:14,367
or just something to happen.
345
00:19:14,367 --> 00:19:20,266
George's grandfather,Theodore Hardeen,was Harry Houdini's brother.
346
00:19:20,266 --> 00:19:24,767
-Was he into the same
illusionist type magic...
-[George] Yeah.
347
00:19:24,767 --> 00:19:26,166
...as his brother?
348
00:19:26,166 --> 00:19:30,467
He was Houdini's partner
until Houdini got married
to Bess.
349
00:19:30,467 --> 00:19:32,400
And then Bessbecame his partner
350
00:19:32,400 --> 00:19:35,367
and my grandfather went offand did his own.
351
00:19:35,367 --> 00:19:37,467
But they would
challenge each other
352
00:19:37,467 --> 00:19:39,867
and the public did not know
they were brothers.
353
00:19:39,867 --> 00:19:42,600
So Hardeen
would challenge Houdini
and Houdini--
354
00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:44,100
And they would fill
their theaters
355
00:19:44,100 --> 00:19:45,467
because people wanted
to see this.
356
00:19:45,467 --> 00:19:48,300
-[Zak] Mm-hmm.
-And they had
a good thing going.
357
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:53,166
[Zak] After Houdini's deathin 1926,
358
00:19:53,166 --> 00:19:57,667
many tried and failedto communicatewith his spirit.
359
00:19:57,667 --> 00:20:00,700
Do you think that
from beyond the grave,
360
00:20:00,700 --> 00:20:04,266
even though he didn't
come through
some of the earlier seances--
361
00:20:04,266 --> 00:20:06,100
I beg to differ.
362
00:20:06,100 --> 00:20:08,000
-Really?
-He was at every one.
363
00:20:08,000 --> 00:20:09,800
It's our perception.
364
00:20:09,800 --> 00:20:12,967
We were unable to perceive
his presence.
365
00:20:12,967 --> 00:20:13,967
[Zak] Really?
366
00:20:13,967 --> 00:20:15,467
But all you need to do
is say the name Houdini
367
00:20:15,467 --> 00:20:18,867
and that invokes the energy
that is Harry Houdini.
368
00:20:18,867 --> 00:20:20,667
[breathing heavily]
369
00:20:22,600 --> 00:20:25,567
At that time,
maybe people just...
just didn't know
370
00:20:25,567 --> 00:20:28,767
how to understand
the senses that they had.
371
00:20:28,767 --> 00:20:30,300
-Maybe he was there...
-No.
372
00:20:30,300 --> 00:20:32,266
...but nobody realized it
373
00:20:32,266 --> 00:20:34,400
because he couldn't pick
a spirit trumpet up.
374
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:37,266
Right. Because he couldn't
do something physical.
375
00:20:37,266 --> 00:20:38,667
Yeah. Something profound.
376
00:20:38,667 --> 00:20:40,667
Yes, that is what
they were looking for.
377
00:20:40,667 --> 00:20:44,667
Something that they could...
see move.
378
00:20:44,667 --> 00:20:47,667
Who's to know that nobody
sitting at that table
379
00:20:47,667 --> 00:20:50,100
had a very intense
personal experience?
380
00:20:50,100 --> 00:20:52,767
-[George] Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.
-[Zak] Or had visions of him
a few days later?
381
00:20:52,767 --> 00:20:56,867
The extensive nature
of following up with
those individuals
382
00:20:56,867 --> 00:20:58,300
was probably never done.
383
00:21:00,367 --> 00:21:03,567
But now,
almost 100 years later,
384
00:21:03,567 --> 00:21:06,767
uh, we have a lot
of advancements in technology
385
00:21:06,767 --> 00:21:10,767
that we believe
can penetrate through
the barriers
386
00:21:10,767 --> 00:21:14,500
that prevented that contact
from ever happening.
387
00:21:14,500 --> 00:21:17,967
ITC, Instrumental
Transcommunication,
388
00:21:17,967 --> 00:21:21,100
XLS technology,
LiDAR technology.
389
00:21:21,100 --> 00:21:24,100
All of this.
Even throughout
the various spectrums,
390
00:21:24,100 --> 00:21:26,166
infrared and ultraviolet.
391
00:21:26,166 --> 00:21:29,600
We are capturing
various forms of anomalies
392
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,800
that we know
are spirit forms.
393
00:21:36,266 --> 00:21:39,800
Have you ever felt the spirit
of Houdini around you?
394
00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:40,567
Yeah.
395
00:21:40,867 --> 00:21:41,800
You have?
396
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:43,166
[George] Well, yeah.
397
00:21:43,166 --> 00:21:45,567
[Zak] You've felt
his spirit before.
398
00:21:45,567 --> 00:21:47,266
[George] Well, let me put it
to you this way.
399
00:21:47,266 --> 00:21:51,367
I became a...
a teacher of meditation
back in 1972.
400
00:21:51,367 --> 00:21:54,467
-Oh.
-And so what we call spirit...
401
00:21:55,066 --> 00:21:58,400
is, uh... not unusual.
402
00:21:58,400 --> 00:22:02,100
I mean, this is what,
uh, these spiritual books
are all about. And--
403
00:22:02,100 --> 00:22:03,367
Do you believe in spirits?
404
00:22:03,367 --> 00:22:04,100
Well, of course.
405
00:22:08,367 --> 00:22:11,767
-What do you think happens
when we die, George Hardeen?
-I think...
406
00:22:11,767 --> 00:22:15,367
I think when we die...
we go to a place
407
00:22:15,367 --> 00:22:20,300
where all the people
we have ever loved
are there to welcome us.
408
00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:23,367
It's the greatest party
we've ever been to.
409
00:22:23,367 --> 00:22:24,767
And we are the guests
of honor.
410
00:22:24,767 --> 00:22:28,667
Mmm. We would like
your great uncle to be
the guest of honor
411
00:22:28,667 --> 00:22:31,100
-for our party tonight.
-Let's invite him over. Yeah.
412
00:22:31,100 --> 00:22:32,300
-[Zak] Let's try.
-Mm-hmm.
413
00:22:32,300 --> 00:22:34,567
Are you ready to...
to get started?
414
00:22:34,567 --> 00:22:37,367
-I've been ready
for my whole life.
-[Zak] Okay.
415
00:22:44,767 --> 00:22:47,700
The darkness looms very close.
416
00:22:47,700 --> 00:22:51,000
And with that said,
we are about to conduct
417
00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:54,800
our most historic seance ever.
418
00:22:56,166 --> 00:22:58,867
We are now readyto conduct our seance,
419
00:22:58,867 --> 00:23:03,000
intended to contactHarry Houdini himself.
420
00:23:03,000 --> 00:23:07,767
I can already tell you
the energy is electrifying.
421
00:23:07,767 --> 00:23:11,500
And we have invited to help
lead this seance
422
00:23:11,500 --> 00:23:15,767
two very powerful people that
we have worked with before.
423
00:23:15,767 --> 00:23:19,967
Patti Negri, psychic medium.That was a no-brainer,
424
00:23:19,967 --> 00:23:22,800
for all the great workshe's done with us.
425
00:23:25,266 --> 00:23:29,367
But also,
ladies and gentlemen,
we have brought warlock,
426
00:23:29,367 --> 00:23:31,400
Christian Day.
427
00:23:33,100 --> 00:23:36,066
Warlock Christian Dayoperates a practice
428
00:23:36,066 --> 00:23:38,467
dedicated to Old Worldfolk witchery,
429
00:23:39,166 --> 00:23:40,867
and communion with the dead.
430
00:23:45,100 --> 00:23:47,467
As we make our wayinside the mansion,
431
00:23:47,467 --> 00:23:50,066
we headto the first floor dining room
432
00:23:50,066 --> 00:23:52,467
and are joined by our guests.
433
00:23:52,467 --> 00:23:56,767
Over here,
we have left a empty chair
for Harry Houdini.
434
00:23:56,767 --> 00:23:59,567
We have two EMF detectors
on the arm rests.
435
00:23:59,567 --> 00:24:02,900
We have his photo here
with a spirit trumpet
436
00:24:02,900 --> 00:24:05,467
connected to the mouth
of his painting
437
00:24:05,467 --> 00:24:07,367
that is being captured
by a boom mic
438
00:24:07,367 --> 00:24:09,200
that is going back
to nerve center
439
00:24:09,200 --> 00:24:11,500
over at Jeff's station
over there.
440
00:24:11,500 --> 00:24:13,900
Jeff, really quick,
tell us, in a nutshell,
441
00:24:13,900 --> 00:24:15,100
what we have
going on over there.
442
00:24:15,100 --> 00:24:17,767
[Jeff] I have the XLS
on his chair,
443
00:24:17,767 --> 00:24:21,200
as well as the XLS 2,
which will give us
the facial recognition.
444
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,000
Okay. Which you just revamped.
445
00:24:24,000 --> 00:24:26,400
-[Jeff] Yes. So it works
in infrared at the same time.
-[Zak] Okay.
446
00:24:26,400 --> 00:24:27,967
Over this direction,
447
00:24:27,967 --> 00:24:30,100
we have a number
of different types of cameras,
448
00:24:30,100 --> 00:24:31,867
including night vision
back there.
449
00:24:31,867 --> 00:24:33,567
We also have two other rooms.
450
00:24:33,567 --> 00:24:35,166
The witch hat room,
451
00:24:35,166 --> 00:24:37,667
which we spoke
with John yesterday,
452
00:24:37,667 --> 00:24:41,700
and he believes
that may have been the room
that Harry Houdini himself
453
00:24:41,700 --> 00:24:43,867
was referencing
in that article.
454
00:24:43,867 --> 00:24:45,700
The room, with no corners.
455
00:24:45,700 --> 00:24:46,967
In the center of the room,
456
00:24:46,967 --> 00:24:49,100
the acoustics are very,
very unique.
457
00:24:49,100 --> 00:24:51,667
You can actually hear an echo
from around the entire room.
458
00:24:51,667 --> 00:24:53,567
So I've placed
this zoom recorder.
459
00:24:53,567 --> 00:24:56,266
It's a four-channel
zoom recorder,
which means
460
00:24:56,266 --> 00:24:59,100
it's recording front, back,
left and right,
461
00:24:59,100 --> 00:25:02,567
and we can look
at each one of those channels
when we review the audio.
462
00:25:02,567 --> 00:25:06,100
At any time during the seance,
if anybody feels anything
463
00:25:06,100 --> 00:25:09,166
very abnormal,
from medical issues
464
00:25:09,166 --> 00:25:11,667
to just sensations
that are very strong,
465
00:25:11,667 --> 00:25:13,100
that you can't stop
thinking about,
466
00:25:13,100 --> 00:25:17,000
please, uh, notate that
to the camera and to us.
467
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:19,066
So I'm going to be quiet now.
468
00:25:19,066 --> 00:25:22,800
I'm going to roll over here
on this Ovilus.
469
00:25:22,800 --> 00:25:24,367
[George] I think he's...
Something's...
470
00:25:24,367 --> 00:25:25,266
[Zak] Look at this.
471
00:25:25,266 --> 00:25:26,800
"Call, beckon."
472
00:25:26,800 --> 00:25:31,667
Beckon is definedas to summon someoneby making a gesture.
473
00:25:31,667 --> 00:25:33,667
Are we alreadyreceiving communication
474
00:25:33,667 --> 00:25:37,100
from the other sideto call upon someone?
475
00:25:37,100 --> 00:25:39,300
[Patti] All right. Everybody,
just so we connect together,
476
00:25:39,300 --> 00:25:41,967
take a slow, deep breath.
Count of four.
477
00:25:41,967 --> 00:25:43,667
One, two,
478
00:25:43,667 --> 00:25:45,867
three, four. Hold it!
479
00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,900
Two, three,
480
00:25:48,900 --> 00:25:51,266
four. Exhale. [exhales]
481
00:25:51,266 --> 00:25:52,700
Feel the empty.
482
00:25:53,367 --> 00:25:54,867
[bell dinging]
483
00:25:56,900 --> 00:25:59,100
There is a place
where we all go,
484
00:25:59,100 --> 00:26:02,967
where near the frost
or cold winds blow.
485
00:26:02,967 --> 00:26:05,867
And our friends
remembered reunite,
486
00:26:05,867 --> 00:26:08,767
and those who hate,
forget their spite.
487
00:26:08,767 --> 00:26:11,700
We gather around
these gentle beings,
488
00:26:11,700 --> 00:26:15,800
we call you now
to bless our meeting.
489
00:26:16,867 --> 00:26:19,100
[exhales]
With the ringing
of this bell...
490
00:26:19,100 --> 00:26:21,166
[bell dinging]
491
00:26:21,166 --> 00:26:23,467
...we lift the veil
twixt heaven and hell.
492
00:26:23,467 --> 00:26:25,100
[bell dinging]
493
00:26:25,100 --> 00:26:27,700
To call the spirits to us now,
494
00:26:27,700 --> 00:26:30,767
as we make this sacred vow.
495
00:26:30,767 --> 00:26:31,767
[bangs on table]
496
00:26:31,767 --> 00:26:34,967
As we slowly lift
the veil between the world,
497
00:26:34,967 --> 00:26:36,667
we call you, Harry Houdini.
498
00:26:36,667 --> 00:26:38,867
Come to this table now.
499
00:26:38,867 --> 00:26:40,867
We call you spirit. Spirit.
500
00:26:40,867 --> 00:26:43,500
With your flesh
and blood beside us here,
501
00:26:43,500 --> 00:26:46,500
Houdini, make your
presence clear.
502
00:26:47,400 --> 00:26:49,000
[Christian exhales]
503
00:26:49,800 --> 00:26:51,266
Harry Houdini.
504
00:26:52,100 --> 00:26:55,166
Your link sits to my right.
505
00:26:55,166 --> 00:26:58,767
I draw upon
your energy through him.
506
00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:04,100
You, who could escape
any trap set by man,
507
00:27:04,100 --> 00:27:07,967
surely you can cross
the rivers of death
508
00:27:07,967 --> 00:27:12,300
and the veils
between the worlds
to join us here tonight.
509
00:27:12,300 --> 00:27:16,600
If anyone could escape
the traps of death,
510
00:27:16,600 --> 00:27:17,867
it is you.
511
00:27:23,867 --> 00:27:26,066
[Patti] From the bonds of life
you did escape,
512
00:27:26,066 --> 00:27:28,100
yet love remains,
it did not break.
513
00:27:28,100 --> 00:27:30,900
Houdini, hear our
heartfelt plea,
514
00:27:30,900 --> 00:27:34,300
come forth and from eternity.
515
00:27:34,300 --> 00:27:36,500
Is... I'm feeling pressure
516
00:27:36,500 --> 00:27:39,266
at the back of my head
really strongly.
517
00:27:39,967 --> 00:27:41,767
[Zak] Harry Houdini,
518
00:27:41,767 --> 00:27:45,467
you did a lot
of what we do now
when you were alive.
519
00:27:46,367 --> 00:27:48,767
You were very curious
about the afterlife.
520
00:27:48,767 --> 00:27:52,567
You were
very curious about those
who could summon the dead.
521
00:27:52,567 --> 00:27:54,000
And now here we sit
522
00:27:54,000 --> 00:27:56,667
with those you investigated
to summon yourself.
523
00:27:57,900 --> 00:28:00,367
You visited here
100 years ago.
524
00:28:01,166 --> 00:28:03,100
You came here at midnight.
525
00:28:03,100 --> 00:28:05,667
If there is any place for you
to walk through the door,
526
00:28:05,667 --> 00:28:08,867
the thousands that are here,
please choose the one
527
00:28:08,867 --> 00:28:11,100
where we can see you.
528
00:28:11,100 --> 00:28:13,367
We have set up
a chair for you.
529
00:28:13,367 --> 00:28:16,967
We would like you to sit
in the chair with us
and join us.
530
00:28:18,667 --> 00:28:20,967
Show us your ultimate stunt.
531
00:28:20,967 --> 00:28:24,100
The stunt that your widow,
that your wife Bess
532
00:28:24,100 --> 00:28:26,000
wanted you to come through,
533
00:28:26,467 --> 00:28:28,367
and escape from death.
534
00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,667
In Sarah Winchester'sseance room,
535
00:28:33,667 --> 00:28:38,000
we have an ITC isolated videoloop experiment running
536
00:28:38,000 --> 00:28:41,700
which uses a video cameraaimed at a projection screen
537
00:28:41,700 --> 00:28:44,300
to createa video feedback loop,
538
00:28:44,300 --> 00:28:49,367
that, in theory,spirits can appear inor manipulate the feed.
539
00:28:49,367 --> 00:28:53,266
Harry Houdini, can you please
give us any type of sign
540
00:28:53,266 --> 00:28:55,467
that you hear my voice?
541
00:28:55,467 --> 00:28:57,767
We are all focused on you,
542
00:28:57,767 --> 00:29:00,266
your energy,
your body, your eyes,
543
00:29:00,266 --> 00:29:03,767
your voice, your smile,
your anger, your emotions.
544
00:29:03,767 --> 00:29:05,667
We are connected to you.
545
00:29:05,667 --> 00:29:08,000
[Patti] In this house
of endless doors,
546
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,667
Houdini, let your
spirit soar.
547
00:29:10,667 --> 00:29:13,867
[inhales] It feels like
he's opening a door somewhere.
548
00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:16,567
This house is a gateway.
549
00:29:17,367 --> 00:29:19,667
It even says in the Bible.
550
00:29:19,667 --> 00:29:22,066
"In my house,
there are many mansions."
551
00:29:22,066 --> 00:29:25,266
With better examples
than the place we now sit,
552
00:29:25,266 --> 00:29:27,500
with so many rooms.
553
00:29:27,500 --> 00:29:31,800
It becomes a place
of invitation to the spirits.
554
00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:33,800
[Zak] Back at Sarah'sseance room,
555
00:29:33,800 --> 00:29:36,367
we start capturing somethingvery strange
556
00:29:36,367 --> 00:29:39,200
that emerges from the centerof the video loop.
557
00:29:43,667 --> 00:29:45,300
Immediately after this,
558
00:29:45,300 --> 00:29:48,266
Jay uses the Paranormal Puck 2at nerve center
559
00:29:48,266 --> 00:29:50,900
and asks,"Are you here, Sarah?"
560
00:29:50,900 --> 00:29:53,166
And he receivesthe word "candle"
561
00:29:53,166 --> 00:29:54,700
in Sarah's seance room,
562
00:29:54,700 --> 00:29:58,066
where we just capturedthis ITC anomaly.
563
00:29:58,066 --> 00:30:01,700
There are several candleshanging from the ceiling.
564
00:30:10,800 --> 00:30:14,200
Aaron now operatesanother ITC device,
565
00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,200
but this usesthe audio frequencies
566
00:30:16,200 --> 00:30:18,500
within theelectromagnetic spectrum
567
00:30:18,500 --> 00:30:21,667
to try and hear voicesfrom the other side.
568
00:30:21,667 --> 00:30:24,367
Hey, Houdini. I want you
to complete this, okay?
569
00:30:24,367 --> 00:30:26,867
"Never tell the audience
how good you are.
570
00:30:26,867 --> 00:30:29,166
They will soon
find out for..."
571
00:30:29,166 --> 00:30:30,467
[distorted voice speaking]
572
00:30:30,467 --> 00:30:31,667
[Aaron] It said "Zak."
573
00:30:31,667 --> 00:30:32,867
-Wow.
-[Jeff] It straight up
said Zak.
574
00:30:32,867 --> 00:30:35,867
-[Patti] It said "Zak."
-[Zak] Yes, that is me.
575
00:30:35,867 --> 00:30:38,400
"Never tell the audience
how good you are.
576
00:30:38,400 --> 00:30:40,700
They will soon
find out for..."
577
00:30:40,700 --> 00:30:41,567
[distorted voice speaking]
578
00:30:42,467 --> 00:30:44,100
-For...
-[distorted voice speaking]
579
00:30:46,567 --> 00:30:48,700
Uncle Harry, can you hear me?
580
00:30:51,166 --> 00:30:54,266
-Something's trying
to form right now in black.
-Really?
581
00:30:54,266 --> 00:30:55,700
Harry, keep, um... Oh.
582
00:30:56,100 --> 00:30:56,867
Holy cow!
583
00:30:56,867 --> 00:30:58,166
-You can feel it.
-[Patti] Yeah.
584
00:30:58,166 --> 00:30:59,767
[Zak] Wow.
Wow, wow, wow, wow, wow.
585
00:30:59,767 --> 00:31:01,266
[Jeff] Oh, my God!
586
00:31:01,600 --> 00:31:02,667
A black face.
587
00:31:02,667 --> 00:31:04,266
Right on his picture.
588
00:31:05,266 --> 00:31:07,567
[Zak] Jeff,our electrical engineer,
589
00:31:07,567 --> 00:31:10,967
begins to notice theseunexplained black anomalies
590
00:31:10,967 --> 00:31:13,166
that are appearingon the painting,
591
00:31:13,166 --> 00:31:15,367
and also in the empty chair.
592
00:31:17,300 --> 00:31:19,500
Harry, what am I holding
in my hand?
593
00:31:21,967 --> 00:31:23,266
What are these, Harry?
594
00:31:23,266 --> 00:31:26,567
After I say this,the painting and chair
595
00:31:26,567 --> 00:31:31,367
both show these strangeblack masses simultaneously.
596
00:31:32,667 --> 00:31:36,300
And at this exact momentwe all feel ice cold air,
597
00:31:36,300 --> 00:31:39,800
which is strange becauseit's extremely hot in here
598
00:31:39,800 --> 00:31:42,066
and thereis no air conditioning.
599
00:31:42,066 --> 00:31:44,600
[Jeff] I'm feeling cold air
come across the table
down here
600
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:46,800
-and covering my fingers.
It's really...
-[Patti] I am too.
601
00:31:46,800 --> 00:31:49,467
[Jeff] This is weird.
I mean, like, it's colder here
than it is here.
602
00:31:49,467 --> 00:31:51,266
I'm at the very end
of the table
603
00:31:51,266 --> 00:31:53,900
and it's colder down here
than it is over--
604
00:31:53,900 --> 00:31:56,100
-[Zak] Ooh!
-[Jeff] What did it say, Zak?
605
00:31:56,100 --> 00:31:58,600
[Zak] It said "witch, unlock."
606
00:31:58,600 --> 00:32:01,467
As we have two witchesat this table,
607
00:32:01,467 --> 00:32:06,100
is this Houdini telling themto unlock the gatesto the afterlife?
608
00:32:06,100 --> 00:32:09,100
George, can we ask you
to sit in your uncle's chair?
609
00:32:09,900 --> 00:32:10,667
Sure.
610
00:32:19,166 --> 00:32:21,100
Uncle Harry. It's George.
611
00:32:21,867 --> 00:32:22,867
You know my voice.
612
00:32:24,166 --> 00:32:25,467
I talk to you all the time.
613
00:32:26,467 --> 00:32:27,467
[distorted voice speaking]
614
00:32:28,000 --> 00:32:29,100
[Zak] At this moment,
615
00:32:29,100 --> 00:32:31,500
a male voiceresponds to George,
616
00:32:31,500 --> 00:32:34,100
but we can't decipherwhat it's saying.
617
00:32:34,100 --> 00:32:36,266
Could this be Harry Houdini?
618
00:32:36,266 --> 00:32:37,900
Uncle Harry. It's George.
619
00:32:38,867 --> 00:32:40,100
I talk to you all the time.
620
00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:47,867
-Did you hear that?
-Yeah. I heard that.
621
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:51,166
I'm with friends here.
622
00:32:51,166 --> 00:32:52,867
Let them hear you
and feel you.
623
00:32:56,467 --> 00:32:58,667
I just feel a sense of joy.
624
00:32:58,667 --> 00:33:01,800
-That's the feeling I've had
since I got here.
-[Zak] Oh, wow.
625
00:33:01,800 --> 00:33:03,133
-[George] Yeah.
-[Zak] That's good.
626
00:33:03,133 --> 00:33:05,300
[Jeff] Maybe it's gratitude
for what we're doing
to recognize him
627
00:33:05,300 --> 00:33:07,166
and do this a 100 years later.
628
00:33:07,166 --> 00:33:11,700
[George] Perhaps.
It just feels... really good.
629
00:33:11,700 --> 00:33:13,767
[Zak] Right after Georgesays this,
630
00:33:13,767 --> 00:33:17,200
a large, black,spherical shaped anomaly,
631
00:33:17,200 --> 00:33:21,367
incredibly appearsand then vanishesnear his head.
632
00:33:22,667 --> 00:33:25,667
It just feels... really good.
633
00:33:28,000 --> 00:33:31,667
At this point, we all wearUV-protective glasses
634
00:33:31,667 --> 00:33:36,767
so Aaron can takeextended exposureultraviolet polaroid photos.
635
00:33:36,767 --> 00:33:39,667
We're recording
with my forensic UV camera
636
00:33:39,667 --> 00:33:43,266
and Aaron's taking
time lapse UV polaroids.
637
00:33:43,266 --> 00:33:45,100
So we need to sit still.
638
00:33:46,867 --> 00:33:49,066
[Zak] After all photoshave been taken,
639
00:33:49,066 --> 00:33:53,200
I decide to spend more timeusing the Ovilus to tryand communicate.
640
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:55,700
Let's try this.
George, you have a random
question for Harry.
641
00:33:55,700 --> 00:33:58,266
Let's just see if we can
get something relevant.
642
00:33:58,767 --> 00:33:59,667
[George] Harry...
643
00:34:01,100 --> 00:34:02,767
Do you remember this house?
644
00:34:04,266 --> 00:34:05,700
[Zak] Through the window?
645
00:34:05,700 --> 00:34:07,100
"Power through window."
646
00:34:07,100 --> 00:34:09,266
-[Jeff] No way.
-[Zak] "Power through window."
647
00:34:09,266 --> 00:34:11,567
[Patti] Oh, my God.
This house is about
the window.
648
00:34:11,567 --> 00:34:13,367
[Zak] It just said
power through the window
649
00:34:13,367 --> 00:34:15,767
-and the windows
are very, uh...
-[Jeff] Oh, yeah.
650
00:34:15,767 --> 00:34:17,300
[Zak] The windows
have a lot of meaning here...
651
00:34:17,300 --> 00:34:19,166
-[Patti] Yes.
-...at the Winchester
Mystery House.
652
00:34:19,166 --> 00:34:22,634
Harry, is there
somewhere in this house
that you want us to go?
653
00:34:25,100 --> 00:34:26,100
"Make trip."
654
00:34:26,100 --> 00:34:28,200
-[Jeff] It just said
"Make trip?"
-[Zak] Yeah.
655
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:30,467
[Jeff] You just said
we need to go to the other...
656
00:34:30,467 --> 00:34:33,166
-[Zak] Oh, make the trip
to the other room.
-[Jeff] Make the trip. Right.
657
00:34:33,166 --> 00:34:35,800
Which is the seance room...
658
00:34:35,800 --> 00:34:37,867
for this house.
This is not the seance room.
659
00:34:37,867 --> 00:34:39,467
We're just having
a seance in this room.
660
00:34:39,467 --> 00:34:40,867
He's telling me make the trip.
661
00:34:40,867 --> 00:34:42,100
[Zak] Where do you want us
to make the trip to?
662
00:34:42,100 --> 00:34:43,567
Where do you want us to go?
663
00:34:44,567 --> 00:34:45,400
[Jeff] Ooh, man.
664
00:34:47,166 --> 00:34:48,367
[Zak] "Writing poem."
665
00:34:48,367 --> 00:34:50,166
-[Patti stuttering]
-Like, put those
two words together.
666
00:34:50,166 --> 00:34:52,266
-Writing a poem.
-[Patti] I've been channeling
two days
667
00:34:52,266 --> 00:34:55,166
-writing stupid poems.
-[Jeff] She's been reading
the poems.
668
00:34:55,166 --> 00:34:56,600
[Zak] That's what
you told me before.
669
00:34:56,600 --> 00:34:58,667
-[Jeff] She was
reading them just now.
-[Patti] I said
670
00:34:58,667 --> 00:35:01,900
-for two days,
I have a million--
-[Jeff] Channeling poem.
671
00:35:01,900 --> 00:35:04,266
[Patti]
From the bonds of life
you did escape,
672
00:35:04,266 --> 00:35:06,300
yet love remains,
it did not break.
673
00:35:06,300 --> 00:35:09,066
Houdini, hear our
heartfelt plea,
674
00:35:09,066 --> 00:35:13,033
come forth and from eternity.
675
00:35:15,467 --> 00:35:17,367
[Zak] At this point,we all decided to makethe trip
676
00:35:17,367 --> 00:35:20,867
to visit the witch's hat roomin Sarah's seance room.
677
00:35:21,967 --> 00:35:23,567
[Aaron] Oh, Zak,
do you remember this?
678
00:35:23,567 --> 00:35:25,266
-[Zak] Yeah.
-[Aaron] God.
679
00:35:33,467 --> 00:35:35,200
[crackling]
680
00:35:36,600 --> 00:35:37,600
[distorted voice speaking]
681
00:35:37,600 --> 00:35:39,266
-[Jeff] "Houdini."
-Houdini!
682
00:35:39,266 --> 00:35:41,367
-[Jeff]
It just said "Houdini."
-[Aaron] We just got Houdini.
683
00:35:41,367 --> 00:35:43,100
[Zak] In an incredible moment,
684
00:35:43,100 --> 00:35:48,266
with everyone witnessing,all of us clearlyhear "Houdini"
685
00:35:48,266 --> 00:35:50,100
from the Polterpod.
686
00:35:50,100 --> 00:35:51,100
[distorted voice speaking]
687
00:35:51,100 --> 00:35:52,166
[Jeff] "Houdini."
688
00:35:52,867 --> 00:35:54,600
-[distorted voice speaking]
-[Jeff] "Houdini."
689
00:35:54,600 --> 00:35:55,867
Houdini!
690
00:35:55,867 --> 00:35:57,500
-[Jeff]
It just said "Houdini."
-[Aaron] We just got Houdini.
691
00:35:58,200 --> 00:36:01,400
Yeah. Ae you here, Houdini?
692
00:36:01,400 --> 00:36:04,567
-[Jeff] Now can you tell us
your great nephew's name?
-[Aaron] Yeah.
693
00:36:05,200 --> 00:36:06,266
[distorted voice speaking]
694
00:36:06,266 --> 00:36:07,400
-What?
-[indistinct]
695
00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:09,867
[Zak] Now a woman's voicecomes through
696
00:36:09,867 --> 00:36:13,867
and says Houdini'sgreat nephews name.
697
00:36:13,867 --> 00:36:16,567
Could this beSarah Winchester?
698
00:36:16,567 --> 00:36:19,600
-[Jeff] Now can you tell us
your great nephew's name?
-[Aaron] Yeah.
699
00:36:20,367 --> 00:36:21,867
-[distorted voice speaking]
-What?
700
00:36:22,800 --> 00:36:23,867
[distorted voice speaking]
701
00:36:23,867 --> 00:36:25,100
-What?
-[indistinct]
702
00:36:25,100 --> 00:36:27,600
[Zak]
This is truly incredible.
703
00:36:27,600 --> 00:36:30,166
With our witnesses next to us,
704
00:36:30,166 --> 00:36:35,000
a spiritintelligently calls outGeorge's name clearly.
705
00:36:35,000 --> 00:36:36,166
[distorted voice speaking]
706
00:36:36,166 --> 00:36:37,467
-What?
-[indistinct]
707
00:36:37,467 --> 00:36:39,400
[Zak] George, Patti,and Christian Day
708
00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,500
now headto the witch's hat roomand join hands.
709
00:36:42,500 --> 00:36:46,000
And we thank
the spirits of this place.
710
00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:49,166
We thank all the energies
and forces and powers
711
00:36:49,166 --> 00:36:50,967
that have
blessed us this night.
712
00:36:52,266 --> 00:36:55,100
[Zak] At this moment,Patti and Christian Daybegin to notice
713
00:36:55,100 --> 00:36:57,667
a visual change with George.
714
00:36:57,667 --> 00:36:59,567
I know George is channeling.
715
00:36:59,567 --> 00:37:01,567
-Look at that smile on him.
-[Jeff] Yeah.
716
00:37:01,567 --> 00:37:03,467
He's... And I think
he's like...
717
00:37:03,467 --> 00:37:05,867
It's Harry
smiling through him.
718
00:37:05,867 --> 00:37:08,166
Like, I'm so glad
you guys are doing this.
719
00:37:08,166 --> 00:37:11,367
That's what I feel,
and you don't see me.
720
00:37:11,367 --> 00:37:13,967
[Zak] Just when we thinkthe investigation is over,
721
00:37:13,967 --> 00:37:15,767
Aaron and I head back to nerve
722
00:37:15,767 --> 00:37:17,967
to analyze the UV polaroids.
723
00:37:17,967 --> 00:37:21,200
We are both about to beabsolutely speechless
724
00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:22,900
as to what we discover.
725
00:37:22,900 --> 00:37:24,567
Oh, my God. Let me see it.
Let me see it.
726
00:37:24,567 --> 00:37:26,367
That right there. Look.
727
00:37:26,367 --> 00:37:27,900
Billy, come in.
Billy, come in.
728
00:37:36,467 --> 00:37:40,066
[Zak] I immediately calleveryone else overto see this.
729
00:37:40,066 --> 00:37:42,000
So when
we were doing the seance,
we're sitting there,
730
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,066
Aaron was taking
a bunch of polaroids.
731
00:37:44,066 --> 00:37:47,367
[Aaron] So-So you can see
that Bill is perfectly still
and so are you.
732
00:37:47,367 --> 00:37:48,667
You are perfectly still.
733
00:37:48,667 --> 00:37:51,600
Behind this photo
is something...
734
00:37:51,600 --> 00:37:53,100
-Wow. Wow.
-...that we can't explain.
735
00:37:53,100 --> 00:37:54,000
Okay?
736
00:37:56,266 --> 00:37:58,567
-What is that?
-[Jeff] Oh, my gosh.
737
00:37:58,567 --> 00:38:01,367
[Aaron] To me,
it looks like a...
like a Tesla coil
738
00:38:01,367 --> 00:38:03,400
back in the day,
when it would explode
with energy.
739
00:38:03,400 --> 00:38:06,100
-[Jeff] And, uh... Damn.
-So, like, it's something
exploding during this.
740
00:38:06,100 --> 00:38:07,867
-We're still sitting there.
-And you're
still sitting there.
741
00:38:07,867 --> 00:38:08,867
So they were still now.
742
00:38:08,867 --> 00:38:10,266
-[Aaron] And so it's like...
-[Jeff] But still.
743
00:38:10,266 --> 00:38:12,500
It's like the energy
of the spirit communicating
744
00:38:12,500 --> 00:38:13,767
-through the four of us.
-It's almost like his drawing.
745
00:38:13,767 --> 00:38:15,233
I don't know.
746
00:38:15,233 --> 00:38:17,767
-[Jeff] Yeah, it does
look like the drawings.
-Almost like his drawings.
747
00:38:18,667 --> 00:38:19,767
[George] We were still.
748
00:38:21,066 --> 00:38:22,667
[Aaron] Wow. That's amazing.
749
00:38:22,667 --> 00:38:24,066
-That's incredible.
-It's instant.
750
00:38:24,066 --> 00:38:25,767
Look. There's nothing
on the back.
751
00:38:25,767 --> 00:38:27,166
We didn't scribble on it.
752
00:38:27,166 --> 00:38:28,867
It's in the photo.
753
00:38:28,867 --> 00:38:31,266
[Zak] Well, we're just gonna
go through these other photos
754
00:38:31,266 --> 00:38:34,100
-just to show you that
it's not on any other photos.
-[Aaron] Yeah.
755
00:38:34,100 --> 00:38:36,567
-Okay. Gotcha.
-This is the science of this.
756
00:38:36,567 --> 00:38:39,066
-[Zak] Right?
-Because light
carries information.
757
00:38:39,066 --> 00:38:40,667
Light is magic.
758
00:38:40,667 --> 00:38:42,667
Light is spirit.
759
00:38:42,667 --> 00:38:45,066
-Watch this.
These are your shots. Ready?
-[Patti] Yeah.
760
00:38:45,066 --> 00:38:47,567
[Aaron] Guys, look,
you kept still on this one
real well.
761
00:38:47,567 --> 00:38:48,867
-You felt at peace.
-[George] Yeah.
762
00:38:48,867 --> 00:38:51,767
-When I said to meditate,
It feels the same way.
-That same...
763
00:38:51,767 --> 00:38:54,066
Yeah. And when I start
every meditation,
764
00:38:54,066 --> 00:38:56,800
I acknowledge
the people in my family
who have passed on.
765
00:38:56,800 --> 00:39:00,667
-[Zak] Mm-hmm.
-And, man, do I sink
like in an elevator.
766
00:39:00,667 --> 00:39:01,900
[Patti] That's amazing.
767
00:39:01,900 --> 00:39:03,367
-[Zak] Oh, wait a minute.
-[Jeff] He's the connection
768
00:39:03,367 --> 00:39:04,767
-shooting out of me.
-Who's this then?
769
00:39:04,767 --> 00:39:06,200
Watch, watch. Look.
770
00:39:06,200 --> 00:39:09,767
Do you see
how it's Christian, me here?
771
00:39:09,767 --> 00:39:12,867
Christian, me here.
You're right around here.
772
00:39:12,867 --> 00:39:14,367
I don't see you here.
773
00:39:14,367 --> 00:39:16,266
You're right where
that flash of light is.
774
00:39:16,266 --> 00:39:18,367
Right. He's right
behind that light.
775
00:39:18,367 --> 00:39:20,600
You're behind
that bright light.
776
00:39:20,600 --> 00:39:23,967
That bright ball of light
is what is connected.
777
00:39:23,967 --> 00:39:26,100
See all the things
coming off of the light?
778
00:39:26,100 --> 00:39:28,700
-That's the magic.
-That's wild.
779
00:39:28,700 --> 00:39:30,166
[Zak] Do you see
what I'm saying?
780
00:39:30,166 --> 00:39:32,300
-Yes.
-Do you see this light
right here?
781
00:39:32,300 --> 00:39:33,500
-This bright light?
-[George] Yes.
782
00:39:33,500 --> 00:39:35,767
-That is not
over here, George.
-[George] No.
783
00:39:35,767 --> 00:39:38,500
So he's taking these photos
of negative art.
784
00:39:38,500 --> 00:39:40,567
Now you can really see.
785
00:39:40,567 --> 00:39:41,567
That's crazy, man.
786
00:39:41,567 --> 00:39:43,567
[Aaron] Really see,
like, beyond.
787
00:39:43,567 --> 00:39:46,100
He's a conduit
that connected everything.
788
00:39:46,100 --> 00:39:47,300
Connected us together.
789
00:39:47,300 --> 00:39:48,567
[Zak] Wait,
that is really weird.
790
00:39:48,567 --> 00:39:50,667
Aaron, I've zoomed in
on your phone right now.
791
00:39:50,667 --> 00:39:53,000
In allour years investigating,
792
00:39:53,000 --> 00:39:57,467
this is the mostincredible photographwe have ever taken.
793
00:39:57,467 --> 00:40:00,667
And like Patti just said,this light energy
794
00:40:00,667 --> 00:40:03,000
is connectingeveryone together
795
00:40:03,000 --> 00:40:05,000
with George being the beacon.
796
00:40:05,000 --> 00:40:06,800
It's also very interesting
797
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:10,967
how the lightseems to be comingfrom Christian Day's hands
798
00:40:10,967 --> 00:40:15,600
as he was focusing on themto emit power and magic.
799
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,900
George, final thoughts
on the seance
and on the photo.
800
00:40:18,900 --> 00:40:20,467
I'm glad we got this.
801
00:40:20,467 --> 00:40:22,467
This is evidence.
802
00:40:22,467 --> 00:40:25,567
It's as you and I
were speaking before, Zak.
803
00:40:25,567 --> 00:40:27,367
This is happening
all the time
804
00:40:27,367 --> 00:40:29,500
with everyone
who has passed over.
805
00:40:29,500 --> 00:40:32,767
The question is,
do we have the perception
806
00:40:32,767 --> 00:40:34,467
-to perceive that?
-[Zak] Mm-hmm.
807
00:40:34,467 --> 00:40:36,100
With equipment, we do.
808
00:40:36,100 --> 00:40:38,000
And thisis the evidence of it.
809
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:40,867
I just want to say that
this is my second time
810
00:40:40,867 --> 00:40:42,400
working with you guys
811
00:40:42,400 --> 00:40:45,567
and what you're doing
and the work that
you're doing,
812
00:40:45,567 --> 00:40:50,667
it's not only
proving to the world
that there's life after death,
813
00:40:50,667 --> 00:40:52,266
something we all want to know,
814
00:40:52,266 --> 00:40:54,367
but in these sorts of events,
815
00:40:54,367 --> 00:40:56,500
-when you've
got the witches going...
-[Zak] Mm-hmm.
816
00:40:56,500 --> 00:41:00,066
...you're also
letting the world know
that magic is real.
817
00:41:01,400 --> 00:41:03,200
[Christian and Patti chanting]
818
00:41:14,367 --> 00:41:16,400
[chanting continues]
