All language subtitles for Paranormal Witness s01e04 The Haunting of Mansfield Mansion.eng

- I just fell in love
with this house.

- I didn't want to live there.

Something was just
not right with the house.

- There were dead body
parts of squirrels and rodents.

- I just felt very unsettled.

- And then...

The nightmares started.

- If it was up to me,

I would have moved
out of the house.

- I was never so
scared in my life.

- [Gasps]

- [Yelps]

[Crashing]

- These are things
that I can't explain,

I don't know what
was causing it.

- [Gasping]

- I moved to Mansfield in 1994.

It's really quaint.

It's pretty.

I have three grown children,

and I'd gone through
a bad divorce.

And it was, you know,
time for us move on.

And I was on lookout

for houses for me
and my daughter.

And as I drove by this house...

It was peeling paint.

The trees were overgrown.

But even in the
condition it was in,

it was beautiful.

Absolutely beautiful.

- Alyssa!

We could fix it up.

Don't you think?

- And there is a
big plywood sheet

that said "going to auction.

Sealed bids."

And there was a phone number.

And I'm going, "oh, yeah.

That's... that's for me!"

- I couldn't believe that my
mom would even think about

buying a house like this.

Windows were all broken into,

the paint was all
peeling off of it.

You could tell nobody had
lived there for a few years.

Like something...

Was just not right
with the house.

- Here we go!

- I called up the
property manager.

- Hi, I'm calling about the
property on black creek drive.

- We set up a time and a day.

- Thank you.

Bye.

Tomorrow!

- I was getting extremely
excited about the possibilities.

When I pulled up in my car,

the property manager
was already there.

- Hi. Amy Moore.

- We walked around the outside.

It was like a sad situation

that a house that
gorgeous was so rundown.

The property manager and I
went to the back of the house

to get to the basement

'cause I wanted to
check out the foundation.

He went first.

And it was damp.

It was dark.

And in the middle of this floor

is this stone structure.

I've never seen
anything like that.

There was no reason
for it to be there,

and it just was odd.

- Shall we?

- When we opened the door
and walked through, it was dirty.

It was a mess.

The third floor
was in... All and all,

the worst floor of all.

The ceiling was falling down.

There were dead body
parts of squirrels and rodents.

There were old
dressers, old beds,

an old wheelchair.

And there was a board

that said "Mansfield
training school."

So I started asking him
about the history of this house.

- What is this place?

- And he told me that
the records had been lost,

and that's all
they knew about it.

But it did not put me off,

because I visualized
what it would be

when I finished with it,

and that was going to be
the most magnificent house.

Honestly, I thought,

"this is going to
be my Picasso."

And the minimum
bid was $100,000,

and I just couldn't
resist bidding on it.

[Phone rings]

- Hello?

- The property
manager called me,

and he goes, "you got it."

- That's wonderful!

- And I'm just going, "what?

"What? I got it?

I got it?"

And i... i was so excited.

I couldn't believe it.

- Okay.

- She was so excited
about having this project.

As for me,

I didn't want to live there.

But she put almost all of her
money into this one house,

so I'm gonna go along
with it and just give it a shot.

I mean, I really
didn't have a choice.

- I wanted to get on
with it straightaway.

I had a full-time job,
so I renovated at night.

I was on the 12-foot
stepladder close to the ceiling

ripping the wallpaper down.

And I'm very focused
on what I'm doing.

- Ugh. Damn it!

[Yelps]

- And then there was...

[imitates banging noises]

Afterwards,

as if something was running.

I was...

Really scared.

I'm out in this abandoned
house, at night,

surrounded by
fields, no neighbors.

- [Gasps]

- I didn't even
go to investigate.

I left the house.

I got in my vehicle
and went home.

The next day was a Saturday.

And as soon as I got up,
I came back to the house.

I wanted to know if
someone was in that house.

- Hello?

- I looked around

to see if there was
anything out of the ordinary.

And there was nothing there.

- [Sighs]

- I put it down to...

Just a freak accident
or something.

I... i had no clue what it was.

None.

- [Laughs]

Okay!

So

This room down here.

Are you ready?

- The day my daughter Alyssa
and I moved into the house,

it was a really exciting time.

- No, I love it, mom.

It's nice.

- I was ecstatic.

And my daughter liked the house.

And she thought it
was... It was great.

- My mom was
all excited about it,

but my gut feeling was...

That we should not
have moved in the house.

I just felt very unsettled.

There was definitely
a presence there.

I finally got the courage
to go explore the house.

There was this door
going up to the third floor.

There was paint chipping,

and it had this
weird old latch on it.

Right away, I just
got a weird feeling.

When I opened the latch,

I just got this
gust of cold air.

And it just kind of
took my breath away.

I was terrified.

But I remember I
was just so curious

and scared at the same time.

I really wanted to
see what was up there.

All I wanted to do was
run back down the stairs.

But I was just like,

"okay, let me look around."

But every step, the
feeling got worse.

I was paralyzed
for a few seconds,

and then...

Somebody or something
was standing behind me

breathing down on me.

It was evil...

Like an evil spirit.

- I was paralyzed
for a few seconds,

and then...

Somebody or something
was standing behind me

breathing down on me.

It was evil...

Like an evil spirit.

- [Gasping and crying]

- I just burst the door open.

And I ran like my
life was at stake.

- [Sobbing and gasping]

- I told my mom,
and she was like,

"I'm sure it was just the wind,"

but I wasn't imagining it.

There was definitely
something up there.

A few weeks later,

my mom and I started
cooking dinner in the kitchen.

- We're talking about the day,

what she had done,

what I had... i had done.

- So how was school?

- Good.

- What does that mean?

- All of a sudden we hear...

[loud banging]

- Mom, what was that?

- Then we heard
these foot stomps.

[Stomping]

It was very loud, very heavy.

- My daughter
hears it. I hear it.

We're startled.

We're scared.

And we didn't know what it was.

- Mom, what's happening?

- I don't know.

I don't know, honey.

- My mom's like, "I don't know.

Let's go see."

- You coming?

- My mom went ahead of me,

and I was holding
onto her shirt.

- [Shushing]

It's okay.

I got you.

- We stood at the bottom
of the stairs listening.

And I said, "well,
I'm going up there."

She wouldn't come up.

She was afraid.

- [Screams]

- My heart stopped, and
I just ran out the door.

And I didn't want
to come back inside.

- Alyssa?

- Yeah?

- Are you okay?

- Yeah.

- I walked up the stairs.

I had a hammer in my hand.

I turned to look
down the hall...

And there's not
a thing in there.

And so I went down the hall,

and I checked the
bedrooms one-by-one.

And I've never felt
the terror I'm feeling.

- [Screams]

[Gasping]

- And there was nothing there.

There was nothing there.

There was...

No reason for those noises.

- Mom!

- If it was up to me,

I would have moved
out of the house that day.

But there was really
nothing I could do.

[Smashing]

- All this time, I was
doing work on the house.

And as I was
tearing things down,

the more it seemed that
the noises were escalating.

If we were downstairs, we
could hear stomping upstairs.

If we were upstairs, we'd
hear stomping downstairs

and doors slamming.

Slam! Thud!

It was progressively
getting worse.

And there was this door
going up to the third floor.

And every day I would
walk past the door,

it would be open.

And so I took a metal rod

and wedged it so you
couldn't lift the latch up

unless that piece
of rod was out.

I'd be halfway down
the hall, and I'd hear...

[metallic clinking, clattering]

Click!

[Door creaking]

[Wood creaking]

And I thought, "I'm going nuts.

'Cause there's no logical
explanation for this."

I didn't believe it could be
anything supernatural or...

Or out of the ordinary.

I did not want to believe that.

[Wood creaking]

Snap!

- Hey, mom.

- Hi, baby.

- You okay?

- Yeah.

- I knew she kept
things from me.

She knew I was scared

and that it would
just make it worse

if she told me things
that happened to her.

So I'd come in every day

and just make-believe
like nothing was happening,

but I'd always feel
like I'm just waiting for

the next thing to show
up or that next sound.

That night, I heard this moaning

coming from my mom's bedroom.

And it was loud, and
it was getting louder.

And it sounded to me
like she was having sex.

- [Moaning]

- Mom, I can hear you.

- I listened for a second.

And it almost sounded
like it was getting louder,

so I banged again.

[Knocking]
- Mom!

- And then all of a
sudden, I'm thinking,

"I saw my mom leave."

I got nauseous,

and I felt like I
was gonna get sick.

And then I heard the
door click behind me.

Click!

[Door creaking]

My heart stopped,

and I just turned, and
I ran down the stairs.

- [Screams]

- And then I heard the
door click behind me.

Click!

[Door creaking]

Unless you experience
that kind of fear,

it's so hard to describe.

It's just terror.

[Both scream]

- Oh. It's okay.

- [Sobbing]
- It's okay.

- I just got home from work,

and it was horrible
to see her so scared.

And I could not come up
with any sort of idea of...

Of what it could possibly be.

[Horn beeps]

- Finally,

I had the opportunity to
move in with my boyfriend.

And it wasn't that I was ready.

It was just a chance
for... For me to leave.

- [Sighs, sniffles]

Take care, okay?

- I was concerned about my
mom living there by herself,

but I just had to get
away from the house,

and it was the first

perfect opportunity to move.

- Summer came.

And I had to have a
dishwasher installed.

So I called in an electrician

and told him where
the main panel was,

which was down in the basement.

He told me he had
opened the doors...

- [Grunts]

[Coughs]

- He walked down the stairs...

Took a few steps in...

He turned around, and
there's no one there.

He was so scared,

he wouldn't come
back into the house.

He wouldn't come back in.

It was disturbing that someone

had something happen
to them in my home.

And now a part of my
home is out of bounds.

[Horn beeps]

Shortly after that, a friend
of mine, Dave mcgann,

needed a place to live.

- I was going through a divorce.

I decided I wanted
to leave my home.

And Amy said, "I'm
living here alone.

"And you're more than welcome

to come and take
one of the rooms."

- You okay?

- I'll be fine.

- Yeah.

Okay.

Let's go see your new home.

- All I had was my television
and my bed and a nightstand,

and that's pretty
much all I needed.

Amy had told me
you would hear noises,

you would hear bangs.

I'm a police officer
for over 20 years.

I'm not easily scared.

I thought it was her
imagination running wild.

[Static fizzling]

Often in the evening,

Amy would have to work.

And one night, I was in my room.

I was lying on the bed
watching television.

[Television murmuring]

And suddenly I heard...

[Creaking]

The floorboard creaking
outside the door.

And I looked over,

and I saw a shadow
moving past my door.

Immediately I was
nervous, because...

I knew that Amy wasn't home,

and I was the only
one in the house.

- And I picked up the
gun, and I slid off the bed.

And I unlatched my door.

And I peeked my head out

and looked down the hallway.

And I couldn't see anything.

Worried, I kept my
gun down at my side,

and I walked down the hallway.

I checked every single room.

There was nobody there.

I just kind of shook it off.

Maybe I'm tired.

Maybe I'm just...
Got to get more sleep.

I had gathered up the plates
and the cups and things,

and I had to go
down the staircase

to get to the kitchen.

And I was just minding
my own business

and moving along
like I normally would.

[Cat yowls]

Suddenly...

[Yelps]

[Gasping and stammering]

I didn't understand
what I just saw.

Something stepped
in front of me,

and as quickly as
it moved in front,

it was gone.

These are things
that I can't explain.

I saw it with my own eyes,

but I don't know
what was causing it.

- All the noises and occurrences

were starting to
bother me a lot,

and it kept getting worse.

There was a night that I
had just finished working.

I was tired.

And I'm watching TV.

And all of a sudden,
I hear this click.

Click!

[Door creaking]

And I'm so petrified,
I can't move.

And then I hear this growl.

[Growling]

I was never so
scared in my life.

There was nothing there,
and the door was shut.

It upsets me.

It still upsets me.

That was bad.

- That same evening,
I was in my room.

I was lying on the bed
watching television.

And I heard...

A water bottle
hitting the floor.

I thought that was
pretty unusual.

But things like that happen.

So I put it back in the bag.

Suddenly, that same
water bottle went flying,

and I heard this growling sound.

[Growling]
- Ooh!

- And it moved to the closet.

- Oh!

- I was scared to death.

My mind was racing,

trying to figure out
what was happening.

What was going on? What
was that growling sound?

What threw the
bottle past my head?

I wasn't sure.

So at this point, I knew that
there was something there

that I couldn't understand.

And that's...

That's what's
still difficult to me.

- Hey, Amy.

- At this point, I
knew that it was real.

It happened.

And I knew I had to move on.

- Take care of yourself.

- You know where I am.

- I felt a little bit weird,

'cause I didn't
want to leave her

alone in the house.

But it was made easier

because her son had
decided to... to move in.

- My son was laid-off.

And they had no place to go,

so he and his
fiancee came to stay.

- You ready?
- Yeah.

- It felt more comfy to have
more people in the house,

not being there by myself.

- Where is he?

Oh.

Hello, bubba!

Hello!

Come on in.

- I just remember
walking in the first time.

It was just like, "wow,
this is a gorgeous house."

- Do you like it?

Do you like this place?

- I thought it was beautiful.

Very enchanting in a way.

- Welcome to your new home!

What do you think, bubba?

- I got along very
well with Amy.

I always thought
she was very friendly,

very warm, very funny.

- Ah, a drink!

- I thought it would
be a big, happy family.

[Baby crying]

Soon after I moved in,

we put my son bubba
down for his morning nap.

And two feet away from his crib

is his baby monitor
on his dresser.

I went downstairs
into the kitchen,

and we start making our lunch.

- Ah.

Sleeping like a baby.

- Nice. I've never heard that.

- All of a sudden, we hear...

[Static, music tinkling]

What sounds like
twinkle, twinkle, little star.

[Music tinkling]

- Do you hear that?

- Yeah.

- And we're like,
"what is that?"

We don't have
any toys in the crib.

We don't have anything
that could produce that music.

So what is that?

[Music stops abruptly]

- [Scoffs]

- Yeah, that's... that's weird.

[Static]

- But then it started up again.

[Music tinkling]

- What is it?

[Music tinkling]

- And we just kind of look
at each other and think,

"maybe it's interference."

But it didn't make any
sense that it would be.

- I'm gonna go check on him.

[Static]

- No, he's sleeping.

- We're thinking "it's okay.

"He's not crying. He'll be fine.

You know, nothing's going on."

And all of a sudden,

we hear my son's
nickname, "bubba."

- Bubba!

- Within seconds,

our son is screaming
his head off.

[Baby screaming]

Whatever was up in that room

had some intention to
scare or harm our son.

[Baby squalling]

- No, he's sleeping.

♪ ♪

- All of a sudden, we hear...

- Bubba!

- Whatever was up in that room

had some intention to
scare or harm our son.

[Baby squalling]

[Baby squalling]

- What's happening?
What is this?

- I felt very frightened.

I was nervous for
my son's well-being.

But I didn't have the
funds to get another home,

so all we could do at this point

is just make sure this
doesn't happen again.

So we grabbed any
religious charms we had

and either hung them
up around his mobile

or hung up around the room.

Just to keep anything
demonic out of that bedroom

'cause at this point,

I was highly convinced

that there's something
in this house.

- Soon after, the
nightmares started.

- Bill had this one
dream in particular

where his fist was up in
the air about ready to hit me.

And I remember
going, "bill, stop!"

- God, I'm sorry.

- I had one nightmare.

It was the most
disturbing nightmare

I've ever had.

I was in a little girl's body.

I'm looking down,
and I see a white dress.

And I'm afraid to look up.

And every time I peek up,

there are adults around

and they're glaring at me.

And I've never felt
such terror in my life.

I mean, absolute,
bone-chilling terror.

One of the adults said...

- Go wash your hands!

- Next thing I know,
I'm in a bathroom.

And a woman says...

- What are you doing?

- And I jump into a wall.

I woke up with crystal clarity;

I knew everything
and felt everything.

And that child died that moment.

I was very upset, very angry.

I knew that these
dreams had to do with

something that has
happened in the house.

I felt definitely this
house had secrets,

absolutely had secrets.

- More and more,

I wanted to get
out of the house.

It was getting to be
nasty, really nasty in there.

And I was at the American
eagles saloon one night.

And a friend of mine,
Ted, comes out and says...

- hey, Amy. What
you looking at there?

- Some pictures of my house.

- And Ted had been around
a long time, and he said...

- you know about that
house you're in, don't you?

- And I'm going,

"huh? What?"

And he goes, "yeah.

You know what the house was."

- No.
- No?

- What?

- It was the Mansfield
training school.

- And what was that?

- It was a mental asylum.

- It all began to make sense.

Now I remember
going through the house

with the property manager

and seeing the sign
"Mansfield training school."

The beds, the wheelchairs,

all the equipment

was from a hospital.

He told me that my house
was the superintendent's house.

There were stories
of abuse going on.

- Patient abuse.

And there were
children there too.

- So I started researching.

I found this report
dated 1917 at the library,

but at this time,

the hospital was not called
the Mansfield training center.

It was called "the
house of imbeciles."

And it incorporated
all the negative aspects

of that word.

- Here, you do this one.

- In the report,

they would explain
how they considered

certain handicaps to
be, like, a very bad thing.

Like, "you're a bad person
for having downs syndrome.

You're a stupid person
for being an epileptic."

They would explain, like,

how they would do
lobotomies on the patients,

electroshock on the patients.

And I'm thinking to myself,

"they're really torturing
these poor people."

- Now it began to make sense

why things are
occurring in my house,

why there are disturbances.

Some of the newspaper clippings

said that there
was abuse going on.

There was a rape in that house.

And a child was
also killed there.

What I was dreaming

was what happened
to a child in that facility.

- That's her.

- I was horrified.

I was horrified,
absolutely horrified.

And the basement
had always been a focus

of a lot of the
activity going on.

And there is a concrete
structure in the floor

that should not be there,

has no reason to be there.

And it was time to
find out what it was.

- Come on.

- There is a concrete
structure in the floor

that should not be there,

has no reason to be there.

And it was time to
find out what it was.

I was not going to
open it by myself.

I was afraid to
see what was in it.

- You sure?

- We used crowbars to
lift off the concrete slab.

[Rumbling]

- [Coughs]

- Initially, it looked
like dirt and stone.

And then looking at it,

and I'm going,
"this looks like...

Cremated body parts."

I was pretty upset,

because I feel
they are the remains

of that child that
was killed there.

- There will be times
where it's peaceful,

and then all of a sudden,

like a light switch
being turned on,

you'll hear things,
you'll see things.

And you're just
thinking to yourself,

"oh, my gosh, I just
want this to end."

- Grandma's here.
[Clinking]

- I feel uncomfortable
sometimes.

I feel scared sometimes,

but the way I rationalize it is,

it's my home,

and I'm staying.

People have said, "no,
no, you're just making it up."

And I have told them,

"come to my house.

"Spend 12 hours in it,

"from dusk till dawn.

"I can guarantee:

"You will either be touched,

"you will have a nightmare,

or you will hear something."
