[Amy] I saw seven people,
whatever they did was evil.
They're very angry about something.
I've seen an apparition of Nikki's friend Sean, who's passed in the hallway.
The paranormal killed him.
If he's here, I feel like he's trying to protect me.
It's freaking me out.
Approximately 350 died.
They must have thought it was the end of the world when this happened.
I think she might be trying to kill you.
[Toni speaking]
[Amy] I'm hearing the dead lady saying,
"Why won't you help us? Why won't you help us?"
It wants the person dead.
My name is Amy Allan.
I see dead people.
I saw a lean creature.
I speak to dead people, and they speak to me.
This person feels like a monster.
But there's only one way to know if my findings are real...
They're sucking the life out of these people.
I rely on my partner.
I'm Steve DiSchiavi.
I'm a retired New York City homicide detective.
So how many bodies we talking'?
And I know every person, every house, has secrets,
it's my job to reveal them.
But Steve and I never speak...
We never communicate during an investigation.
until the very end.
- [gasps] - You're not gonna like this.
When we uncover if it's safe for you to stay...
I'm sorry, I need to take a break.
Or time to get out.
It wants inside a house because it wants to kill you.
[gasps]
[Steve] I'm in Flatwoods, Kentucky. It's a small city along the Ohio river.
I got a desperate call from a woman named, Nikki.
She told me, she always dreamed
of owning a home in the middle of nowhere.
Let me tell you, mission accomplished,
but Nikki said, shortly after she and her sister moved in,
all hell broke loose.
My life is just terrible,
and I know it's these things affecting me.
I know that they are destroying me,
and now ultimately, I think they want to take my life.
[Steve] Nikki believes whatever's in her house
has already killed one of her friends,
and now it's coming after her.
I'm really hoping we can help her out.
[Amy] Oh, boy.
What is this?
There are a ton of graves,
and I just saw them over there.
I saw seven people, they're all in black,
and like the women have like the big hats and the thick veils,
and it's two men and five women.
I think they're mourning the loss of loved ones,
but I feel fear of them
so I feel like they have bad intentions here.
[Steve] So Nikki,
this is a nice house in a beautiful area.
- [Nikki] Thank you. - [Steve] I mean,
- you should be happy living here... - I should.
but you're not, obviously.
- Yeah. - So, what's going on?
The paranormal activity is unbelievable.
- Okay. - I see all kinds of spirits,
they make my day a living hell.
So Nikki, you said on the phone that you believe the paranormal
killed one of your friends,
explain to me why you think that it is.
Yes, I, I believe my friend, Sean,
he was my best friend of 20 years.
I believe that... the paranormal killed him.
What did he die of?
Heart problems.
- How old is he? - Uh, 42.
I'm curious, he died here?
No, he died at his home.
So what makes you think it's paranormal?
He was a young, healthy guy.
It's easy to blame his heart...
but I feel like they did it.
Do you think he's here?
Yeah, I'll, I'll hear my name, and it's his voice.
- Okay. - I heard him one day say,
"Nikki, be careful."
If he's here, I feel like he's trying to protect me.
I've no doubt.
Thank you.
[Steve] So let's start with some basics.
Who all lives in the house?
My sister and I, Toni, um,
- I got a picture, if you wanna see it. - Yeah.
How long have you guys lived here?
[Nikki] I've been here for three years and she's been here for the last year.
[Steve] Do me a favor and give me a list
of what you guys are going through here.
[Nikki] I feel drained,
seeing shadow figures,
and we're getting physically attacked,
and me and my sister are fighting a lot.
How bad are the fights with you and your sister?
It's really bad. It got physical.
It did?
She hit me and I hit her.
[Steve] So what makes you think this is paranormal?
I pretty much raised her since she was ten years' old
and nothing has ever happened like this, ever.
So... being you, you recognize there's something paranormal and bad is here,
wh... what do you think it wants?
I think it ultimately wants to kill me slowly,
destroy me.
I have a friend that actually tucked me in bed. [chuckles]
It's embarrassing, but... yeah, uh, she'll turn the light out for me.
- Are you kidding me? - Mmm-mmm.
[Nikki sniffles]
It's embarrassing.
It's not embarrassing, it's, it's a tragic way of living.
[sniffles] That's hard.
I'm so thankful you're here, and I'm hoping to get some answers.
- [Steve] Well, that's what we're here for. - I'm relieved.
[Amy] These seven mourners are an issue
because the way that they're affecting me physically
is how I would think the, the living would feel them.
They make you feel scared,
they're very angry about something.
I think that the living would feel this anger.
They may act out on it.
These mourners, the living may see them,
uh, going back and forth.
[Matthew] What is it that they're seeing?
[Amy] Possibly shadow figures.
They may have seen, uh, like a full-on apparition.
[Steve] So what's going on?
I see shadow figures all over the house.
[Steve] Do they all look the same? Can you describe 'em?
They're blacker than black, the blackest you've ever seen, and that's them.
You're positive it's not people walking by or...
- [Nikki] Positive. - animals outside, nothing like that?
I leave all my blinds closed at night.
The lights will be on and I'll still see 'em.
[Steve] Do they do anything?
Um, they physically drain me.
And I also think that they're messing with my mind,
because I'll set a task to do
and I'll go in circles
and do other things before I can make my way back to it.
- [Steve] All right. - It's like I'm scatter brained.
All right, so you got a lot going on. What else?
Every single night I wake up
and there are spirits standing all around me.
When you, when you say spirits,
- these are all people, right? - [Nikki] People.
Do they say anything?
A lot of 'em say, "Help me,"
or "I wanna go home."
When you say, they, how many we talking?
There's about eight that stand around my bed.
In the past, people that have had those experience wind up being mediums.
Has anybody ever, uh, told you, you might have mediumship?
No, I've had a lot of weird things happen,
but nobody's ever told me that.
[Amy] What is going on?
I feel somebody with abilities.
I'm feeling somebody maybe in their 30s.
I feel longer hair,
she's like a medium.
Like, I'm seeing the mourners here,
I'm seeing the mourners there, like coming in, coming in.
The living may see them.
I'm hearing the dead lady saying,
"Why won't you help us? Why won't you help us?"
It's very aggressive.
So I'm hearing a female being like, "Get the [bleep] away from me.
Get the [bleep] out."
So I think that this living person is exhausted
from being, you know, dealing with this
and not getting sleep and being drained,
and it triggered like a real illness.
You know what I'm saying? Like something bad.
[Steve] Anything else?
I've been touched all over my body.
Okay. So, how are you being touched and where?
Brush against my shoulder, tap me on my back,
rub my hair.
Does it feel like a human hand?
[Nikki] Oh, yeah.
- [Steve] Can you tell if it's a male or a female? - No.
Okay, so what else?
And I had a nightmare
and in the nightmare I was...
sexually assaulted,
and I woke up the next morning
and I had bruises all over
my private area.
I've never been a victim before
and talking about it, it just, it embarrasses me
that something paranormal did this to me
and I can't fight back.
Don't be embarrassed, because I'm listening to you.
Okay? Just...
- [Nikki sniffles] - I'm not here to judge you.
If Amy says you can't fix this, you have to leave...
- I'll find a way to leave. - Okay.
[Nikki] I'll have to, I can't live like this.
I need you guys, I really do.
[Amy] These mourners are surrounding the bed
of this person, this female.
They're standing there, they're standing there.
If this person falls asleep, it goes bad, it goes sideways.
- [Matthew] What does that mean? - Uh, 'cause they can't then,
like, protect themselves.
They're touching her ankles and... and her feet.
I think it's the dead lady who's pushing on the chest,
so I can't [bleep] breathe now,
like they were crushed to death.
I think they might be like trying to kill her.
So Toni, Nikki says you guys have been at each other's throats.
I mean, how bad has it gotten?
It's gotten to where it got violent.
She's blaming it all on the paranormal,
that's one of the reasons she called us in.
- Mmm-hmm. - Uh, do you agree with that?
Yes.
She's turned into someone and myself also,
um, when we start fighting, we get so enraged,
and she's never been the type to be confrontational.
You know lately...
I feel like she hates me.
You know she doesn't.
I know.
[Steve] Okay, can you tell me about some of the experiences you've had?
I've seen an apparition of Nikki's friend, Sean, who's passed, in the hallway.
Did he look like he was when he was alive? Did he look any different?
He looked like he was when he was alive.
Okay. Now your sister, Nikki thinks he's here, do you?
I definitely think Sean's here at times,
I think, that's what's kept us safe so long.
All right, anything else?
Lately, I've been hearing a series of like four knocks on the wall.
- Where? - From either the wall
in my sister's bathroom
or on the very far wall in her room.
- How loud is it? Can you, ca... can you show me? - [Toni] Yeah,
it's kind of... [knocks]
- All right. - And it's four knocks every time.
And how often would you say it's happening?
I myself have heard it five or six different times.
So wh... what, what do you think is here?
I don't know what's here, but I would hate to see my sister leave her home
because, you know, this was kind of like her dream home,
and I just want her to have peace.
Okay.
[Amy] Okay, I can't with that... I just... Oh, my God!
I saw some man who's definitely dead,
uh, and he is like bouncing off the [bleep] walls and the ceiling,
making like, thumping noises, I guess.
[thumping]
Does anybody who lives here now have any interaction with him?
Oh, they hear him, for damn sure
and he's [bleep] pissed.
Like, I don't even know anybody who could be in this room,
or like... Oh, my God, my head's spinning,
he's draining, very draining energy.
He makes you very agitated,
uh, very dizzy,
scrambles your brain so you can't think straight.
So, Sherri, I understand that you're Nikki's good friend
and you were Sean's...
- Fiancee. - fiancee.
-My condolences. I'm very sorry for your loss. -Thank you.
Nikki's told me some crazy stuff that's going on here.
Yeah.
Have you had experiences yet?
Yeah, I see a tall, dark, shadow figure in the house.
I've seen it multiple times.
Does it look like a human?
It's got the outline of a shoulders, neck, head but...
Okay.
I mean, you can't see anything, it's just black.
Okay, and you don't believe it's a shadow
- coming in from the outside somehow. - No, because we've seen it.
I mean, we see it at night-time
and there's no way there's of the shadow coming from the outside.
- She keeps her blinds closed. - All right.
All right. So this shadow,
he didn't look anything like Sean did, right?
-No -[Steve] Nothing like that?
-No -Can you physically describe
what, uh, Sean looked like?
Actually, I have a picture of him if you wanna see it.
He was a good looking guy.
[Sherri] He was, and he was, he was a really, really great person.
You know, it's hard to talk about, but Nikki thinks
that whatever's here might have contributed
to Sean's death.
In a way, I think maybe it might have.
Now, do you think he's still around? Do you think he's here?
I hope not.
[Amy] There's another dead guy,
and he's like yelling and screaming.
I don't know if it was like a neighbor
or like he lived... I don't know if he lived here
or he lived at that house.
I see like, you know, uh, brown hair, I think,
and he's, he's you know, he's a big guy.
This would be, uh, fairly recent.
There's a lot of anxiety...
fear, panic
and he's yelling 'cause it, you know, he's having a heart attack.
He was calling it hell.
[Steve] So I just got a call from an historian I've worked with before,
he did some digging for me and hit the jackpot.
Turns out one of the first owners of Nikki's property
suffered a whole bunch of family deaths
from the moment they set foot on the land.
Before we get into this family's bad times
on my client's property, uh, what do we know about it?
The Powell family is some of the first to own your client's property.
- Okay. - Their patriarch was a man named, Charles Powell.
While they're owning the land, they have eight kids
and 21 grandkids.
Jesus, that's a lot of kids.
[Steve] I know things do start to go wrong, when did that happen?
Pretty much right from the beginning, Steve.
They buy the property in 1882...
- Okay. - [Matt] ...and by 1900,
the family has already experienced three deaths.
The first two were children.
Now, unfortunately, we do not know their names,
but importantly, in 1897,
Charles, who was 60 years old at the time, passes away.
[Steve] Do we know what he died from?
Unfortunately, no.
Okay, so now...
are things getting better for them after all this?
No, in 1914, Ellen's daughter, Lizzy
loses a 10-month-old baby girl to meningitis.
1917, winds up being even worse for the family.
The oldest son, Thomas...
- [Steve] Okay. - he loses his one-month-old son, Carl,
to whooping cough.
In October,
Lizzie dies of peritonitis,
a ruptured appendix.
[Steve] Ooh! Does it get any better for these guys?
Well, the 1920s are pretty quiet
- for the family, Steve... - [Steve] Okay.
but really, that's just kind of the calm before the storm.
In 1930, a new wave starts.
The family loses their matriarch, Ellen.
Ellen was 80, and she dies from kidney disease.
And then Ed,
he dies at 42 from the flu.
- Oh. - So a little more of a surprise.
Of the original eight children of Charles and Ellen, there's four left.
Okay, so what happened?
So first off, William's wife, Etta,
she dies at age 54 from acute myocarditis.
Interestingly enough, six years later,
her son, William Jr., dies of the same thing when he's only 28.
And then finally, William Sr., on his 70th birthday,
he is killed by a massive heart attack.
Okay, so heart disease in this family runs rampant.
[Matt] Very much so.
And then Lucy's husband, Isaac, in 1944, he dies of a stroke
just to seal that off, late in 1947,
Thomas, the oldest son,
he dies also of a stroke.
- These are all their death certificates? - That's all of 'em.
[Steve] All right, so body count,
wh... where are we at, at this point? How many?
We're at 13 over three generations while they own this property.
I mean, deaths happen, but this is a little over the top.
[Amy] I'm seeing three generations of dead males,
so the youngest male, uh, was in his mid to late teens,
the middle male, which I'm calling him Thomas,
was in his 30s,
uh, and then the oldest, uh, male was in his late 40s, early 50s,
and he said it was his land.
They all had guns, rifles.
They were upset about their land,
uh, and they're always around watching outside.
And Thomas,
he told me that him and his boys,
uh, had to fight a lot against the beggars and natives
for their land, to protect their land, I'm thinking.
He would think whatever they did was like, evil.
[Steve] So I'm heading over to meet a local TV news reporter.
She reached out to me to tell me about a deadly flood that devastated the area.
Said it was so bad, it left about a million people homeless.
[Steve] All right, so this big flood, when did it happen?
[Leslie] It was January of 1937,
an extreme amount of rainfall fell
and it affected towns all along the Ohio River.
When we spoke on the phone, you said,
about a million people lost their homes,
what, what was the death toll connected with that?
Approximately 350 died.
[Steve] How did this flood affect Kentucky?
The amount of rain that fell that January
was unmatched, and it rained for 20 days straight.
- Wow. - The damage was just widespread,
and I have some pictures of the towns that were flooded here.
[Steve] They must have thought it was the end of the world when this happened.
Now on the phone, you mentioned three people died by my client's property,
tell me about them.
One of those was 34-year-old, Harry Crumb.
He was in a boat, it overturned,
that was ruled an accidental drowning.
- Okay. - [Leslie] There was also a widow,
she was 81 years old, her name is Martha Callahan.
Her death certificate said that she died from shock
due to exposure to the flood, as you can see here.
[Steve] Okay, so what about the other one?
[Leslie] Fifty-six-year old, Agnes Jones.
She was just about a mile and a half from your client's home.
She was in a three-story building,
it collapsed, she died in the collapse,
the building just gave way due to the severity of the floodwater.
[Amy] I'm seeing those mourners again,
so I guess there used to be some kind of roadway here.
One of the mourners
she's indicating like they always traveled this road
for the dead.
Like, I don't know if they're, like, burying dead people
or they're like giving them,
like, you know, their final thing.
But they knew all of each other in life,
they lost a lot of people at the same time,
very angry about that.
I guess a lot of their friends and family died
at the same time
because... like something about the water...
Oh, my God!
So they're pretty pissed about that.

[Steve] So far, I've got a client who's convinced
something in her house killed her best friend,
on a property where one of the previous owners
suffered 13 tragic family deaths.
But I wanna see if there's anything else.
Searching through old records,
I find a heartbreaking story
about a one-armed cop who was brutally murdered in the line of duty,
not far from Nikki's house.
But what really pisses me off,
it was his last day on the job.
So I tracked down the victim's great grandson who agreed to talk to me.
Now, he says, to this day,
the family's convinced there was never any justice in this case.
Jason, thanks for meeting with me and talking about something so personal.
Before we get to the murder of your great grandfather,
what did you know about it? What'd you find out?
My great grandfather, Clarence,
was a really respected man, uh,
a pillar of the community type of individual.
He worked for the Chesapeake
and Ohio railway system for 17 years.
It was in that line of work that there was an accident
- where he lost, uh, part of his left arm. - Oh!
In 1949, he decides to reboot his life
and he becomes a night watchman.
This is in spite of his disability
and in spite of his age, he's in his 50s...
- [Steve] Okay. - at that point.
Okay, so now he's a night watchman
- with the police department. - Mmm-hmm.
What happens with the murder? What went down?
It was in the really early hours
of May the 11th, 1950,
my great grandfather, he received a complaint
about a drunk and disorderly man,
Charles Cameron,
and he was bringing him in to book in the city jail.
So before they could even get to the cell,
Charles basically took advantage
of my great grandfather's disability.
He was able to seize control of his gun...
- Okay. - and he fired three shots.
Uh, the first shot missed,
the second shot went into the stub of his missing arm,
and the third shot went into the side of his head
and that, as it turns out, was the fatal shot.
[Steve] You know, there's nothing worse in the world that
for a cop to get killed with his own gun.
This guy take off?
Yeah, he takes off, he's, he's on the run.
There was a big manhunt
that took place the rest of that day and overnight,
but he surrendered the next day.
Okay, so he turns himself in, interesting.
Now, Jason, did you mention to me on the phone
that your great grandfather was like a half hour or so from retiring?
He was literally in the last 30 minutes.
So when the chief was coming in to relieve him,
that should have been his last time on the job
and he was going to a safer job after that.
- Done deal. - [Steve] Oh, my God.
This scumbag who killed your great grandfather
do... does he go to trial, does he plea out, what happens?
It goes to trial, uh, a jury finds him guilty of manslaughter,
he's given a six-year sentence.
This is not manslaughter.
I mean, was your family pissed about this?
Well, I think for his sons in particular,
that was a really, really difficult,
um, thing to understand.
Do we know what happens to him after that at all?
He eventually ends up back in prison anyway in 1967,
among the charges this time were four lascivious acts with a child,
here's a document that speaks to that.
But that's where he spent the rest of his life was behind bars.
- So he dies in prison. - He does.
Good, so he finally got what he deserved
and that had to make your family feel a little bit better.
[Amy] I'm seeing that dead guy who bounces off the ceiling again.
He doesn't wanna be here, he didn't wanna come back,
and he's making a racket.
- [Matthew] Is that affecting you now. - [Amy] Yeah.
I'm trying to not engage at all.
Headache... looks like it's...
He's not in a complete form,
he was like, I think, 50s maybe.
He had facial hair
and he's [bleep] pissed.
So this dude died,
moved on and then got pulled back...
but now is staying and going bat [bleep].
Have you ever seen anything like this before?
No.
It's freaking me out.
I saw several disturbing things on my walk,
but two concerned me the most.
First, the crazy guy who bounces off the ceilings.
He is mostly just energy,
pretty white...
and you can see the movement, like lines of movement.
Next, I described
the group of mourners surrounding a living woman in her bedroom.
The bed is surrounded by about seven people...
and two of them are men,
uh, and they're definitely the tallest,
they're dressed in mourning clothing,
both the men had top hats, and all the women were wearing veils.
Amy is this what you saw?
Yes, that's what I saw.
[Steve] Now that Amy and I have completed our investigations,
we're ready to reveal our findings to each other
and our clients for the first time.
So guys, I'd like you to meet Amy.
Um, she's gonna be doing the reveal from one of your other bedrooms
so she could focus on your case
and the dead without any distractions.
Amy, meet the two sisters who live here.
This is Nikki here,
and this is her sister, Toni.
Now, these guys are scared to death,
they believe that whatever's here has killed before
and it's out for blood again,
so unless she has any questions,
she'll tell us about her walk.
I went out to the carport,
I encountered a male,
uh, who was yelling and screaming, uh, in pain
and it seemed to me, he was having a heart attack.
And I got that this happened fairly recently,
and this residual energy is so intense
that I believe, uh, living people
when they're out there could feel like sudden anxiety,
like for no reason,
uh, and fear and panic, uh, 'cause that's what he felt
stro... you know, very much in that moment outside.
Amy, now's probably a good time to tell you
what one of the main reasons
Nikki called us in is. Close friend of hers died
of a heart attack recently, less than a year.
Now, his name was Sean, he was 41 years old,
uh, he never lived here, but he was here all the time, right?
I just feel like something here did something to him.
We were fighting that day, all of a sudden, he just boom.
- And you're beating yourself up about it. - Yeah.
- Quite a bit. - [Steve] Yeah.
Tell Amy why you think Sean's still here.
I... sometimes I'll hear his voice and he'll say...
"Nikki, watch out. Don't trust 'em. Be careful."
Toni, you just told me you saw an apparition of Sean.
Yes. I had seen an apparition, it looked just like Sean.
I mean, only it was kind of transparent.
Amy, I got a photo of Sean here.
I'm curious if... maybe...
he's who you saw.
To me, it looked like his hair would have been longer.
Did he have longer hair?
- No. - No? It was short?
Yeah, he usually kept it short.
- Uh, so this could be somebody else entirely. - Okay.
It doesn't mean that he's not coming and going.
That could very well be the case
or choosing to assist you as a guide.
So that's a good thing... right?
Yeah, I feel better about that. Yeah.
[Steve] What else, Amy?
When I came into this room,
I did encounter, uh, a deceased male.
[Steve] And that's Toni's room.
He freaked me out.
And he is like bouncing off the [bleep] walls and the ceiling,
making like, thumping noises, I guess.
[thumping]
You'll hear, like knocks
and they come in sets of four.
And it sounds like they're on the back wall of the house,
either in my room or Nikki's room.
I absolutely think he has an effect on the living,
obviously hearing these thumps and things.
But also in here,
extraordinarily draining energy,
also feeling dizzy or like, not having good balance in here.
- Can't think straight. - I can't get my thoughts straight.
I'll have something to do
and something will wipe my mind clear.
I'm very concerned.
She just kind of just stands there and stares
and... like she's lost.
Nikki, you also told me, you're drained
- twenty four, seven. - [Nikki] I'm so tired all the time.
If I set out to do a task,
somebody drains me. It... I feel it instantly.
It feels like the life has been sucked out of me.
The interesting thing though,
about this male, is that
he is someone who did move on when he died.
While he was transitioning,
- he got pulled back... - Ha!
[Amy] ...and he's trapped here.
He's very upset about this. He is angry,
and his anger is starting con... to consume you.
- [Steve] Who? Toni? - [Amy] Toni, yeah.
Well, you know,
one of the biggest problems that, that we talked about
when I interviewed them was
the anger, right? It was causing you two to fight.
I get angry for no reason.
I could flip the table and punch a hole through the wall.
There's definitely some energetic exchange here
between you and him,
and you're absorbing a lot of his
anger and negativity.
- [Steve] You're okay? - [Toni] Mmm-hmm.
I did have a sketch done of what I saw.
He's more of an energy form.
Oh, yeah.
Freaks me out.
[Nikki] I've seen this.
- What have you seen? - I've seen him.
I've seen this, exactly.
That's kinda how my mind feels.
[Steve] What else on your walk, Amy? Anything?
Now I'm gonna talk about these other dead people that I encountered.
There are seven of these people.
They were all dressed in old fashioned mourning wear,
which is all black.
At some point, their family and friends were dying left and right.
They indicated that it had something to do with water.
The living would see them,
especially going through the house.
So I felt like, yeah, you guys would probably see
like these shadow type figures.
I see them all the time, all the time,
and it's just right out the corner of my eye and it's gone.
Now, I might have an idea of who these mourners are.
In January of 1937, there was a massive storm here.
In fact, it rained and poured for 20 days straight.
Now, the Ohio river is, what, just a mile away from the house,
and it flooded big time.
It was felt all across the Midwest, from Pennsylvania,
all the way to Illinois.
I've actually got some photos here.
- Holy cow! - [Steve] Yeah.
Now, Amy, when it was all said and done,
- nearly a million people were left homeless. - [Amy] Wow!
Three hundred and fifty were dead.
A few of those victims were right here near the house.
Now, do you think those mourners you were talking about
might be victims of the flood?
It... it's a possibility that they knew family and friends
who died in the flood.
It didn't seem like any of them were the victims of the "water."
So then I went into the back bedroom to the left.
- [Steve] So that's your room, right Nikki? - Yes, it is.
So I went in there...
and I did not like
what they're doing to you.
I got that you are in fact, a medium...
and they are pissed.
I heard something like you telling them
to get the [bleep] out and leave you alone.
I did.
So they're upset about that
because they're coming to you for help
and you're not helping them.
[Nikki] I knew I was medium.
I, I wanted to hear you confirm it
that I wasn't crazy, honestly.
I've heard him ask for help. Asked,
"Nikki, help me." I don't know how.
I don't know how to help him, and I want to, I really do.
And being exposed to that energy over time
can make you physically ill.
And I was worried that it had already triggered
some kind of chronic illness.
Um, I found a knot in my breast last year.
That... yeah, I was worried about that.
That's from the exposure to them.
I'm okay. I'm, I'm good now, I just
I didn't want anybody know about it. I was ashamed.
I just wanted to...
be numb. [sobs]
Do you have an idea your sister might be a medium
or is this like the first you're hearing of it?
She would get agitated.
She's like, "Don't you hear him? Don't you see that?"
And I'm like, no, and she's like, "You can't tell me you don't."
And she would get...
- Nobody understands. - enraged if I don't.
Well, you even have your friend tuck you in at night
- sometimes. - It's so bad, um, it's so embarrassing.
I'm 42 years old, this is just, uh, nuts.
Like, I have my friends come over and they take turns.
[sniffles]
Turning off my light for me because
I can't turn my light switch off
and walk to my bed in the dark.
I did see the whole... like,
them waking you when you're asleep and you can't move.
I had a sketch done of, of what I saw.
You live this, I don't.
That's exactly, it. Yes.
[Toni speaking]
[Steve] Amy, it, it looks like they're going after her physically.
- [Steve] Is that, is that what's happening? - [Amy] Yes.
[Nikki] That's exactly what I live every day.
Now they're like, getting aggressive with you,
- um, and their intentions are not good. - Yeah.
I saw the woman, like putting her hands together
and like, leaning onto your chest.
She was getting so intense
with the, the pressure on your chest,
and I'm like, I think she might be trying to kill you.
-She wants me, I feel it. She wants me dead. -[Amy] Yeah.
Well, you've had all kinds of physical attacks, you know?
Mmm-hmm. I get touched all the time.
Just a few minutes ago when you all were talking,
I felt somebody grab my arm.
Yeah, that could be them.
I had a dream that I was being...
sexually assaulted,
and I looked down and I had little fingerprints
all over the insides of my thighs and my...
private area was bruised and scratched, and it, it was bad.
And I, I'm thinking, well, what if my dream was a reality?
Everything that she's told me, you've pretty much verified so far.
And that scares the hell out of me
because she says on a daily,
"Toni, I think they're trying to kill me. They want me dead."
[Steve] So look, the good news is, you're not crazy.
You got a lot going on here.
Bad news is, you got a lot going on here.
Now to answer the big question,
can you stay and fight back and kick all the dead out,
and go back to being loving sisters?
For that answer, I'm going to turn it over to Amy.
I want a male medium to come here.
He's going to make contact directly with these mourners,
and he's going to find out specifically
what they even need help with in order to move on.
Then I'd like him
and a male witch to come back,
and they will move on all of the mourners.
Then once that's completed,
they're going to, uh,
move on the semi-transitioned, trapped male.
Toni, while that's happening, I want you to work with a healer.
She'll be working on you
to remove any, uh, energy,
uh, between you and him,
and cut any cords
uh, that may have been established between you and him.
At the end of all of this,
these people, if you want to work with them,
will be able to help you learn about your abilities.
So, one... once they get control of the dead that come in and out of here,
her feeling drained all the time, that'll start to come back,
- where she'll feel better and get some more sleep. - Oh, God! Yeah, yeah.
You'll get some sleep, you'll feel a lot better.
Uh, you know, for Toni, the anger will go away.
I'm ready, yeah, I'm, I'm ready to get this done.
I look forward to us healing and getting better,
and I'm, I'm glad there's something we can do about it.
I wanted us to be at peace with each other, not at each other's throats.
It's doable now.
It's just... some of the best news I've ever heard.
I love you guys for this.
You're lifesaving, you are... It means the world to me,
I don't know how to thank you guys, like...
Life changing.
[Amy] Nikki and Toni have a lot of work ahead of them,
but I believe if they bring in a medium and a witch,
they can move on the dead that are tormenting them.
Once they're gone, they should be able to heal their relationship
and find the peace they've been desperately looking for.
