1
00:00:06,973 --> 00:00:12,311
It looked like an older woman
that was standing there next to her.
2
00:00:12,345 --> 00:00:13,479
[demonic screaming]
3
00:00:13,513 --> 00:00:15,414
[screaming]
4
00:00:15,448 --> 00:00:16,582
[grunting]
5
00:00:16,616 --> 00:00:20,119
I see this figure. Half of
his face was burnt off.
6
00:00:21,588 --> 00:00:24,023
[woman] I'm seeing shadows.
7
00:00:24,324 --> 00:00:25,524
Help me.
8
00:00:25,558 --> 00:00:28,327
Now, I'm starting to get scared.
9
00:00:28,361 --> 00:00:30,329
[man] The whole house
is on fire.
10
00:00:30,363 --> 00:00:31,063
Wake up.
11
00:00:31,531 --> 00:00:33,098
[demonic grunting]
12
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:34,500
[glass breaking]
13
00:00:34,534 --> 00:00:36,368
It looked like somebody
pushed her.
14
00:00:37,837 --> 00:00:38,904
[demonic screaming]
15
00:00:38,938 --> 00:00:42,341
It's either fight or flight
and I was ready to fight.
16
00:00:44,677 --> 00:00:47,246
Things were about to get worse.
17
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:49,048
[theme music playing]
18
00:01:08,501 --> 00:01:11,270
[ambulance sirens]
19
00:01:15,308 --> 00:01:17,543
It was the summer of 1999.
20
00:01:17,577 --> 00:01:20,212
Umm... I was working as an EMT.
21
00:01:21,581 --> 00:01:23,682
All of my aunts were nurses, so,
22
00:01:23,716 --> 00:01:27,019
it was just something that I wanted
to do, following their footsteps.
23
00:01:31,724 --> 00:01:33,559
[narrator] EMT, Ryleigh Black,
24
00:01:33,593 --> 00:01:36,462
and her partner Mike
arrive at a hospital
25
00:01:36,496 --> 00:01:38,997
for a routine patient transfer.
26
00:01:42,869 --> 00:01:44,136
It was the third shift,
27
00:01:44,170 --> 00:01:48,173
so it was around 12:30 in the
morning, 1'o clock in the morning.
28
00:01:51,211 --> 00:01:53,378
[Ryleigh] This was a simple
transport call.
29
00:01:54,814 --> 00:01:57,649
I was picking up a
was in her eighties.
30
00:01:58,585 --> 00:02:00,686
All we had to do was
take the patients
31
00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:01,787
down to hospice,
32
00:02:01,821 --> 00:02:05,157
which was only about, maybe,
15 miles down the road.
33
00:02:07,427 --> 00:02:08,360
Hello.
34
00:02:09,162 --> 00:02:10,095
[gasping]
35
00:02:12,432 --> 00:02:13,365
Anybody here?
36
00:02:19,572 --> 00:02:20,572
[Ryleigh] There was a vibe.
It...
37
00:02:20,607 --> 00:02:22,808
You just felt it the moment
that you walked in.
38
00:02:22,842 --> 00:02:25,744
It's like hair on the back of
your neck would stand up,
39
00:02:25,778 --> 00:02:28,480
you are like getting a little
shiver here and there,
40
00:02:28,515 --> 00:02:30,916
you know like, woo...
we shouldn't be in here.
41
00:02:31,317 --> 00:02:32,251
[loud breathing]
42
00:02:36,923 --> 00:02:39,158
There's usually someone
at the desk waiting for us.
43
00:02:39,192 --> 00:02:43,028
I thought it was strange that the
night nurse wasn't at her nurse's station.
44
00:02:43,363 --> 00:02:44,963
[screams]
45
00:02:46,366 --> 00:02:47,332
Do you smell that?
46
00:02:51,304 --> 00:02:52,237
I changed my socks.
47
00:02:56,209 --> 00:02:57,109
I swear.
48
00:02:58,378 --> 00:03:01,213
Even the smell of the
hospital was off.
49
00:03:01,247 --> 00:03:03,415
It didn't smell like a hospital.
It smelled musty and old.
50
00:03:04,450 --> 00:03:05,817
Alright, well, um...
51
00:03:05,852 --> 00:03:08,987
Our patient's in 314. Why
don't we just grab her and go?
52
00:03:44,657 --> 00:03:46,692
When my partner and I went
into the room 314,
53
00:03:46,726 --> 00:03:49,194
we found her sleeping
in her bed.
54
00:03:51,297 --> 00:03:53,031
[woman screams]
55
00:03:55,702 --> 00:03:58,670
We heard a scream come
from down this hallway.
56
00:03:58,705 --> 00:04:00,038
It was a really dark hallway.
57
00:04:00,073 --> 00:04:03,976
It was about, maybe, a hundred
feet from where we were standing.
58
00:04:04,811 --> 00:04:07,713
It was almost like a
terrified scream.
59
00:04:07,747 --> 00:04:11,183
At that time of night, you
don't hear that kind of a
60
00:04:11,217 --> 00:04:12,618
wail coming from anybody,
61
00:04:12,652 --> 00:04:15,120
you know, they are in
hurt or danger.
62
00:04:22,795 --> 00:04:24,463
So we backed up out of the room,
63
00:04:24,497 --> 00:04:25,664
and we looked down the hall
64
00:04:25,698 --> 00:04:29,968
and we heard someone ruffling
about a couple doors down.
65
00:04:33,506 --> 00:04:34,573
[gasps]
66
00:04:34,607 --> 00:04:36,408
We ran into the night nurse.
67
00:04:36,442 --> 00:04:39,144
She was really scattered
and scared.
68
00:04:39,178 --> 00:04:40,012
Are you okay?
69
00:04:40,680 --> 00:04:42,247
There was something in there.
70
00:04:42,782 --> 00:04:44,316
Tell me what happened.
71
00:04:45,418 --> 00:04:46,585
She was floating.
72
00:04:46,619 --> 00:04:48,420
Floating above the patient,
73
00:04:49,322 --> 00:04:50,355
down the hall.
74
00:04:52,825 --> 00:04:55,360
I was thinking that it was just the
new nurse. She freaked herself out.
75
00:04:55,395 --> 00:04:56,495
She freaked herself out.
76
00:04:56,529 --> 00:04:58,563
There's nothing that's
going on here.
77
00:04:58,598 --> 00:05:02,267
Okay, Mike will escort you
back to the nurse's station.
78
00:05:04,037 --> 00:05:05,671
[narrator] As her partner
comforts the nurse,
79
00:05:05,705 --> 00:05:09,107
Ryleigh makes her
way back to 314.
80
00:05:18,551 --> 00:05:20,752
I could hear something
coming out of 314.
81
00:05:20,787 --> 00:05:23,989
This was kinda weird because
the lady was sleeping.
82
00:05:25,491 --> 00:05:28,393
I could hear shuffling
around the floor of her bed.
83
00:05:28,428 --> 00:05:32,464
It was not common for that to be
heard because of the bed alarm
84
00:05:32,498 --> 00:05:33,932
that was underneath the patient.
85
00:05:33,966 --> 00:05:38,036
When it went off, she got up,
so I knew she wasn't out of bed.
86
00:05:45,211 --> 00:05:46,645
Hello, hey.
87
00:05:46,679 --> 00:05:51,583
It looked like an older woman
that was standing there next to her.
88
00:05:51,617 --> 00:05:55,354
She had on looked like what
was a old hospital gown.
89
00:05:55,388 --> 00:05:56,955
You're not supposed
to be in here.
90
00:05:58,124 --> 00:05:59,091
[grunting]
91
00:06:05,131 --> 00:06:06,031
[screaming]
92
00:06:07,467 --> 00:06:09,334
She turned around
and hissed at me
93
00:06:09,369 --> 00:06:11,436
and it really scared me.
94
00:06:11,471 --> 00:06:12,838
[continue screaming]
95
00:06:13,206 --> 00:06:14,239
[screaming]
96
00:06:15,208 --> 00:06:16,975
[crying]
97
00:06:21,147 --> 00:06:22,381
I saw it.
98
00:06:22,415 --> 00:06:24,583
It's in room 314. We have to
get the patient out of there now.
99
00:06:24,617 --> 00:06:26,084
Call security.
100
00:06:30,490 --> 00:06:31,556
The phone...
101
00:06:31,591 --> 00:06:33,358
There was no phone line.
102
00:06:34,494 --> 00:06:35,460
[walkie-talkie beeping]
103
00:06:35,495 --> 00:06:38,063
Mike! Mike, this is
Ryleigh, over.
104
00:06:38,097 --> 00:06:40,232
We need to get
the patient out of there.
105
00:06:40,266 --> 00:06:42,367
[Indistinct speech]
106
00:06:45,605 --> 00:06:46,805
Mike, do you copy?
107
00:06:46,839 --> 00:06:50,542
Something came across my
radio that I thought was interference
108
00:06:50,576 --> 00:06:52,844
because I couldn't make
out what was being said.
109
00:06:53,846 --> 00:06:56,047
Keep trying security.
I am going into the room.
110
00:07:03,156 --> 00:07:03,522
[gasps]
111
00:07:04,857 --> 00:07:08,860
I was looking for my partner and
he came running up the hallway.
112
00:07:09,328 --> 00:07:10,395
I came to get you.
113
00:07:10,430 --> 00:07:11,363
[panting]
114
00:07:13,266 --> 00:07:14,399
I saw something in the room.
115
00:07:16,169 --> 00:07:19,838
Said that he walked past a room and
he heard something moving in the room,
116
00:07:19,872 --> 00:07:23,809
and when he looked in there, he saw something
floating next to a patient there too.
117
00:07:23,843 --> 00:07:26,211
We have to grab her
and go right now.
118
00:07:34,787 --> 00:07:37,088
My partner and I looked.
It looked like whatever it was
119
00:07:37,123 --> 00:07:41,960
the spirit was trying take the hand of
the woman that was sleeping in the bed.
120
00:07:53,372 --> 00:07:55,373
[screaming]
121
00:07:58,511 --> 00:08:00,445
My partner and I were
standing in the doorway.
122
00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:02,380
The door slammed
right in our face.
123
00:08:05,585 --> 00:08:07,752
Hey, listen!
124
00:08:07,787 --> 00:08:10,956
It was like somebody on the
other side was holding it closed.
125
00:08:12,425 --> 00:08:13,925
Let us in!
126
00:08:15,294 --> 00:08:19,564
When I get scared, I just go into
the second mode of survival skills
127
00:08:19,599 --> 00:08:23,401
that you have when you are
faced with something like this.
128
00:08:25,404 --> 00:08:27,239
Hey, let us in.
129
00:08:28,908 --> 00:08:32,978
It's either fight or flight,
and I was ready to fight.
130
00:08:35,748 --> 00:08:39,484
When I finally had a chance to open
the door, it was like somebody unlocked it.
131
00:08:39,519 --> 00:08:41,286
And it just opened with ease.
132
00:08:52,732 --> 00:08:54,966
When we walked into the
room, it was a different
133
00:08:55,001 --> 00:08:59,471
feeling, different vibe than
it was like 30 seconds prior.
134
00:08:59,505 --> 00:09:01,473
Um, we checked her pulse.
135
00:09:01,507 --> 00:09:04,342
We realized that she was no
longer with us anymore.
136
00:09:04,377 --> 00:09:06,344
So I think the spirit
that was there,
137
00:09:06,379 --> 00:09:08,179
it wanted to take
her soul with it,
138
00:09:08,214 --> 00:09:09,948
wherever it was going.
139
00:09:18,257 --> 00:09:19,468
This could be an entity,
140
00:09:19,492 --> 00:09:22,527
whose job it was to
escort the recently departed
141
00:09:22,562 --> 00:09:23,762
to the other side.
142
00:09:23,796 --> 00:09:26,097
The spirit might have appeared
to be very malevolent
143
00:09:26,132 --> 00:09:30,368
because it had a job to do and it
wanted to do so without any distractions.
144
00:09:37,810 --> 00:09:40,579
We finally got the phones working
and the radios were working,
145
00:09:40,613 --> 00:09:42,314
so the security came up.
146
00:09:42,348 --> 00:09:43,848
And they opened up
all the doors, uh,
147
00:09:43,883 --> 00:09:47,686
to the patients rooms and checked
every single patient's room on that floor,
148
00:09:47,720 --> 00:09:49,287
and couldn't find anything.
149
00:09:55,795 --> 00:09:57,963
When we left that hospital,
I was shaken.
150
00:09:57,997 --> 00:10:01,433
I had to take a moment to catch
my breath and I was shaken so bad.
151
00:10:04,403 --> 00:10:06,004
[Ryleigh sobs]
152
00:10:06,772 --> 00:10:09,341
I will never go back there again
153
00:10:09,375 --> 00:10:11,676
to even deal with
another patient.
154
00:10:11,711 --> 00:10:13,812
I would send somebody else to go
155
00:10:13,846 --> 00:10:17,382
because I don't wanna
experience that ever again.
156
00:10:18,551 --> 00:10:20,085
[exhales]
157
00:10:25,191 --> 00:10:26,491
Yeah.
158
00:10:26,525 --> 00:10:28,760
I had nightmares about
it for quiet some time.
159
00:10:28,794 --> 00:10:31,730
It took a long time to forget
what I'd seen, what I'd heard,
160
00:10:31,764 --> 00:10:34,165
and what I felt
and what I smelled.
161
00:10:35,301 --> 00:10:36,501
It's...
162
00:10:36,535 --> 00:10:39,337
It's just something that
takes time to get over,
163
00:10:39,372 --> 00:10:40,338
time to accept,
164
00:10:40,373 --> 00:10:42,273
time for your brain to
mull through it,
165
00:10:42,308 --> 00:10:46,311
to see what it can process
and what it can't.
166
00:10:47,980 --> 00:10:50,715
The paranormal experiences
will always stay with me.
167
00:10:51,884 --> 00:10:55,387
I have all these questions
now that I didn't have before.
168
00:11:07,366 --> 00:11:08,400
[loud bang]
169
00:11:11,570 --> 00:11:13,138
[grunting]
170
00:11:17,476 --> 00:11:19,244
[narrator] Utah's
mountainous terrain
171
00:11:19,278 --> 00:11:23,181
is a popular destination
for outdoor enthusiasts.
172
00:11:24,550 --> 00:11:25,850
But dangerous activities means
173
00:11:25,885 --> 00:11:29,254
a steady stream of patients
at this small hospital.
174
00:11:33,693 --> 00:11:35,527
The hospital has recently hired
175
00:11:35,561 --> 00:11:38,463
20-year-old pharmacy
technician, Devin Bean,
176
00:11:38,497 --> 00:11:40,065
to help fill prescriptions.
177
00:11:42,501 --> 00:11:44,502
[Devin] It's rewarding
in way of like,
178
00:11:44,537 --> 00:11:46,337
a sense of accomplishment.
179
00:11:46,372 --> 00:11:48,406
Being able to be there
for others,
180
00:11:48,441 --> 00:11:53,178
and for me, that's always loved doing,
always loved listening and helping people
181
00:11:55,881 --> 00:11:57,916
[narrator] Twelve years
previous,
182
00:11:58,718 --> 00:12:00,685
Devin is a happy eight-year-old
183
00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,254
- enjoying a games night with his family.
- [indistinct chattering]
184
00:12:05,424 --> 00:12:07,792
I remember a family game night.
185
00:12:07,827 --> 00:12:10,228
Um, I was eight years old
at the time.
186
00:12:19,205 --> 00:12:20,405
[bulb shattering]
187
00:12:21,540 --> 00:12:23,041
[man] Whoa. Whoa.
188
00:12:25,211 --> 00:12:26,644
[woman] Oh, my God!
189
00:12:26,679 --> 00:12:33,084
[Devin] All of a sudden, the light
bulb came flying out of the lamp.
190
00:12:36,689 --> 00:12:38,590
It's physically impossible.
191
00:12:38,624 --> 00:12:41,493
My other siblings, they were
a little bit older than me,
192
00:12:41,527 --> 00:12:45,363
and they were basically
covered in mystery.
193
00:12:47,366 --> 00:12:48,500
Well, it must have been this,
194
00:12:49,502 --> 00:12:53,471
maybe, differential heat
expansion or something.
195
00:12:53,506 --> 00:12:55,373
[girl] Or it could have
been a ghost.
196
00:12:56,509 --> 00:12:58,910
No sweetie, there's no such
thing as ghosts.
197
00:12:59,311 --> 00:13:00,111
[table falls]
198
00:13:00,546 --> 00:13:01,913
[Devin screams]
199
00:13:02,414 --> 00:13:03,848
My father was like,
200
00:13:03,883 --> 00:13:08,353
"Oh, ghosts don't exist.
That stuff is all fake."
201
00:13:08,387 --> 00:13:10,421
And as soon he was
talking about that,
202
00:13:10,456 --> 00:13:13,158
the TV stand crashed.
203
00:13:15,461 --> 00:13:17,495
It's okay. It's okay.
204
00:13:17,530 --> 00:13:19,297
It was truly terrifying
205
00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:26,304
I remember my father looking
in awe. e TV stand and the glass
206
00:13:27,306 --> 00:13:28,940
I'm gonna go get the broom.
207
00:13:29,542 --> 00:13:30,842
He was like,
208
00:13:30,876 --> 00:13:34,379
"Okay, let's clean this up
and go to sleep."
209
00:13:36,682 --> 00:13:41,386
Game night was just the first
part of what was to come.
210
00:13:44,557 --> 00:13:46,357
In certain cases,
211
00:13:46,392 --> 00:13:48,259
paranormal investigators
will look
212
00:13:48,294 --> 00:13:49,460
for the presence of children.
213
00:13:49,495 --> 00:13:51,462
Children are emotional and
214
00:13:51,497 --> 00:13:54,933
hormonal cyclones of energy.
215
00:13:54,967 --> 00:13:58,469
And there is a theory that
some opportunistic entities
216
00:13:58,504 --> 00:14:00,505
can latch onto the energy
217
00:14:00,539 --> 00:14:03,508
and use it for their
own purposes.
218
00:14:03,542 --> 00:14:05,076
And when you have a
family of children
219
00:14:05,110 --> 00:14:11,649
growing up like this, that's a lot
of potential fuel for a haunting.
220
00:14:11,684 --> 00:14:15,920
[narrator] But game night
was just the beginning.
221
00:14:15,955 --> 00:14:19,691
[Devin] One night, I remember going
downstairs to get myself something to eat.
222
00:14:20,759 --> 00:14:25,063
We have this Island in
the middle of our kitchen.
223
00:14:26,732 --> 00:14:31,202
And I had left a gallon
of milk on the island.
224
00:14:32,571 --> 00:14:34,339
[loud indistinct noise]
225
00:14:39,445 --> 00:14:42,447
[breathing heavily] What?
226
00:14:42,481 --> 00:14:45,383
The milk jug had been thrown
227
00:14:45,417 --> 00:14:48,319
from the island on the kitchen.
228
00:14:48,354 --> 00:14:50,121
[breathing heavily]
229
00:14:50,155 --> 00:14:54,259
I was like, "Oh, maybe it's just one
of my siblings playing a prank on me."
230
00:14:56,462 --> 00:14:59,063
Ben? Karen?
231
00:15:00,866 --> 00:15:04,736
I remember walking
around the corner and looking,
232
00:15:04,770 --> 00:15:08,439
and to my disbelief,
there was nobody there.
233
00:15:08,474 --> 00:15:10,975
[breathing heavily]
234
00:15:16,815 --> 00:15:21,352
I was feeling scared
and I didn't know what to do.
235
00:15:37,303 --> 00:15:41,306
I wanted to talk to my mother
but she was asleep.
236
00:15:46,545 --> 00:15:48,313
[floor thumps]
237
00:15:54,420 --> 00:15:56,120
[Devin] My body couldn't move.
238
00:15:57,523 --> 00:15:59,557
I wasn't able
to scream for help.
239
00:15:59,591 --> 00:16:01,759
[low growling]
240
00:16:02,728 --> 00:16:06,364
I remember hearing someone
whispering my name
241
00:16:06,398 --> 00:16:07,532
in an evil tone.
242
00:16:07,566 --> 00:16:11,436
[voice] Devin. Devin
243
00:16:11,470 --> 00:16:12,670
- [growling]
- [breathing heavily]
244
00:16:12,705 --> 00:16:15,206
[Devin] I see
this tall, dark figure.
245
00:16:15,240 --> 00:16:17,875
[growling] Devin!
246
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:19,444
Half of his face was burnt off.
247
00:16:19,478 --> 00:16:22,013
- [gasping]
- [roars]
248
00:16:23,115 --> 00:16:24,882
[screams]
249
00:16:25,751 --> 00:16:29,087
As soon as I saw his face,
he was gone.
250
00:16:31,457 --> 00:16:33,124
[bird cawing]
251
00:16:36,495 --> 00:16:37,628
And the next morning,
252
00:16:37,663 --> 00:16:40,431
after seeing that and
going through that,
253
00:16:40,466 --> 00:16:41,733
I felt crazy.
254
00:16:41,767 --> 00:16:44,502
I felt like no one
could ever experience
255
00:16:44,536 --> 00:16:47,271
the exact same thing
that I just saw.
256
00:16:47,306 --> 00:16:50,975
Sweetie, what are you doing?
257
00:16:54,213 --> 00:16:55,380
What's wrong?
258
00:16:56,682 --> 00:17:01,753
[Devin] I... I saw,
uh, something...
259
00:17:01,787 --> 00:17:04,255
What, sweetie? What did you see?
260
00:17:04,289 --> 00:17:08,292
I saw a man with a burnt face.
261
00:17:11,630 --> 00:17:12,797
As soon as I said that,
262
00:17:12,831 --> 00:17:16,367
I remember seeing
this stone look on her face.
263
00:17:17,336 --> 00:17:18,870
Are you okay?
264
00:17:18,904 --> 00:17:21,506
She, at that moment,
looked terrified.
265
00:17:21,540 --> 00:17:23,374
She didn't know what to say.
266
00:17:23,409 --> 00:17:25,309
- What's wrong, Mom?
- [gasps]
267
00:17:25,344 --> 00:17:27,812
[Devin's mom] Um,
I'm okay, sweetie,
268
00:17:27,846 --> 00:17:30,214
but [breath trembling]
I saw something, too,
269
00:17:30,249 --> 00:17:31,416
and I need to tell you.
270
00:17:31,450 --> 00:17:33,785
She went on to tell me
271
00:17:33,819 --> 00:17:37,555
that when she gave birth
to my older sister,
272
00:17:37,589 --> 00:17:41,559
she was put in
a surgical operating room,
273
00:17:41,593 --> 00:17:48,099
and she saw the exact same
tall, dark entity
274
00:17:48,133 --> 00:17:50,468
with half of his face burnt off.
275
00:17:50,502 --> 00:17:54,038
[breathing heavily] No, no.
276
00:17:58,644 --> 00:18:01,512
[Devin's mom sobbing]
It was terrifying...
277
00:18:01,547 --> 00:18:02,680
[Devin] As she was
telling me that,
278
00:18:02,714 --> 00:18:06,851
I had many things
racing through my mind.
279
00:18:06,885 --> 00:18:10,621
[Devin's mom gasping]
It's okay. I believe you.
280
00:18:10,656 --> 00:18:12,824
[Devin] I was feeling like
281
00:18:12,858 --> 00:18:16,360
maybe this thing has
followed us since then.
282
00:18:16,395 --> 00:18:17,528
I was thinking,
283
00:18:17,563 --> 00:18:20,698
"Maybe this thing has something
284
00:18:20,732 --> 00:18:22,366
that it wants from my family."
285
00:18:22,401 --> 00:18:24,402
[both breathing heavily]
286
00:18:26,872 --> 00:18:28,806
[Devin's mom] Don't
be afraid, sweetie.
287
00:18:28,841 --> 00:18:30,541
I was kind of in disbelief
288
00:18:30,576 --> 00:18:33,511
because it was
just so crazy to me
289
00:18:33,545 --> 00:18:36,414
that this thing was real
and it was no longer
290
00:18:36,448 --> 00:18:39,517
just what I thought
was my imagination.
291
00:18:39,551 --> 00:18:41,552
It wasn't my mind
playing tricks on me.
292
00:18:41,587 --> 00:18:43,488
I'll protect you.
293
00:18:43,522 --> 00:18:47,658
I felt my stomach drop
294
00:18:47,693 --> 00:18:52,897
because I knew that this thing
was actually here.
295
00:18:53,699 --> 00:18:56,400
I knew things
were about to get worse.
296
00:18:58,137 --> 00:18:59,270
[growls]
297
00:19:00,973 --> 00:19:03,908
[Richard] Until the birth
of Devin's oldest sibling,
298
00:19:03,942 --> 00:19:08,679
there was no haunting
associated with his family.
299
00:19:08,714 --> 00:19:09,881
But during
that particular birth,
300
00:19:09,915 --> 00:19:16,087
Devin's mom saw the first
sighting of this apparition.
301
00:19:17,189 --> 00:19:20,992
An apparition which had
a severely burned face.
302
00:19:22,628 --> 00:19:25,463
Whether this entity
was simply resident
303
00:19:25,497 --> 00:19:26,764
at the hospital for some reason
304
00:19:26,798 --> 00:19:31,269
and attached itself
to Devin's mom is unknown.
305
00:19:32,771 --> 00:19:34,505
But one thing's for sure.
306
00:19:34,540 --> 00:19:35,840
After that night,
307
00:19:35,874 --> 00:19:40,011
he and his family would
never be the same again.
308
00:19:40,712 --> 00:19:42,446
[narrator] Twelve years later,
309
00:19:42,481 --> 00:19:44,682
Devin is now working
at the same hospital
310
00:19:44,716 --> 00:19:46,651
as a pharmacy technician.
311
00:19:46,685 --> 00:19:49,587
But the family
is still struggling.
312
00:19:49,621 --> 00:19:52,423
[dog barks distantly]
313
00:19:52,457 --> 00:19:53,858
[Devin] Over the years,
314
00:19:53,892 --> 00:19:57,595
I noticed that
this negative, dark entity
315
00:19:57,629 --> 00:20:00,698
had affected our lives,
316
00:20:00,732 --> 00:20:04,235
and infested its way
into our house.
317
00:20:10,676 --> 00:20:17,048
[Devin] I remember coming home
from a shift at work.
318
00:20:21,286 --> 00:20:24,322
[loud clunking]
319
00:20:24,356 --> 00:20:27,191
[door creaking open]
320
00:20:30,762 --> 00:20:34,498
There was this loud,
like, booming sound.
321
00:20:34,533 --> 00:20:36,267
[loud clunking]
322
00:20:36,301 --> 00:20:38,302
[loud clunking continues]
323
00:21:01,526 --> 00:21:04,228
[footsteps approaching]
324
00:21:05,430 --> 00:21:07,398
[footsteps approaching
and receding]
325
00:21:10,769 --> 00:21:12,637
[Devin] I remember
hearing footsteps.
326
00:21:12,671 --> 00:21:15,172
[footsteps approaching
and receding]
327
00:21:24,583 --> 00:21:27,151
And every time I would check,
there was nothing there.
328
00:21:31,857 --> 00:21:35,326
[narrator] The dark presence
is affecting Devin's family.
329
00:21:36,528 --> 00:21:38,729
[Devin] Me and my family
had a lot of bad luck
330
00:21:38,764 --> 00:21:41,499
from my dad
getting injured at work
331
00:21:41,533 --> 00:21:45,236
to my mom having
a lot of health issues.
332
00:21:47,572 --> 00:21:51,208
I started getting bad anxiety.
333
00:21:52,744 --> 00:21:56,047
Ended up being diagnosed
with depression.
334
00:21:59,451 --> 00:22:00,584
I knew everything was connected
335
00:22:00,619 --> 00:22:03,287
to whatever this thing was.
336
00:22:04,589 --> 00:22:06,524
I was angry
because at this point,
337
00:22:06,558 --> 00:22:09,393
it was affecting my entire life.
338
00:22:14,666 --> 00:22:17,668
I remember thinking to myself
339
00:22:17,703 --> 00:22:22,440
that I have to find out
what's going on.
340
00:22:22,474 --> 00:22:23,741
I have to find this entity
341
00:22:23,775 --> 00:22:26,977
and find its roots
and get more information.
342
00:22:28,380 --> 00:22:30,414
[narrator] Driven
to the breaking point,
343
00:22:30,449 --> 00:22:33,651
Devin takes matters
into his own hands
344
00:22:33,685 --> 00:22:35,753
by returning
to the very hospital room
345
00:22:35,787 --> 00:22:38,756
that is the source
of his family's distress.
346
00:22:38,790 --> 00:22:41,559
[Devin] I found out
the exact room
347
00:22:41,593 --> 00:22:45,029
my mom had given birth at.
348
00:22:46,131 --> 00:22:50,501
I was determined to go
in there and get answers.
349
00:22:50,535 --> 00:22:54,438
Who are you? What do you want?
350
00:22:56,541 --> 00:23:02,446
[Devin] I heard nothing,
but then I reviewed it.
351
00:23:05,417 --> 00:23:07,618
[Devin over recorder]
Who are you?
352
00:23:07,652 --> 00:23:10,321
[voice] I am the guardian.
353
00:23:11,490 --> 00:23:12,723
After asking for its name,
354
00:23:12,758 --> 00:23:19,563
I got, in a deep, dark voice,
saying, "The guardian."
355
00:23:19,598 --> 00:23:20,798
[Devin over recorder]
What do you want?
356
00:23:20,832 --> 00:23:23,667
[voice] We all have
our favorites down here.
357
00:23:23,702 --> 00:23:27,605
Again, in the same voice,
"We all have a favorite here."
358
00:23:27,639 --> 00:23:32,309
And that, to me, was, like,
mind-blowing and shocking.
359
00:23:34,513 --> 00:23:36,380
It felt like it picked my mom,
360
00:23:36,415 --> 00:23:38,449
and then, eventually,
361
00:23:38,483 --> 00:23:40,518
let itself into
my entire family.
362
00:23:40,552 --> 00:23:43,788
Get the hell out of our lives.
363
00:23:43,822 --> 00:23:47,158
You won't show yourself
because you're not even real.
364
00:23:49,394 --> 00:23:51,162
[hissing]
365
00:23:54,566 --> 00:23:57,435
I regretted my decision
to say that.
366
00:23:57,469 --> 00:24:05,009
Oh, Devin, Devin, Devin, Devin.
367
00:24:08,046 --> 00:24:11,882
[narrator] Returning
home after work that night,
368
00:24:11,917 --> 00:24:14,185
Devin discovers
that the dark entity
369
00:24:14,219 --> 00:24:16,420
has met his challenge.
370
00:24:17,756 --> 00:24:20,291
[Devin] The whole
house is on fire.
371
00:24:21,526 --> 00:24:23,627
[Devin groaning,
breathing heavily]
372
00:24:23,662 --> 00:24:25,329
[coughing]
373
00:24:25,363 --> 00:24:26,964
My father was at work.
374
00:24:28,166 --> 00:24:31,302
Mom? Mom!
375
00:24:31,336 --> 00:24:33,404
I knew I had to get my mother
376
00:24:33,438 --> 00:24:35,506
and my siblings
out of the house.
377
00:24:35,540 --> 00:24:37,007
[all coughing]
378
00:24:37,042 --> 00:24:41,612
- [girl speaking indistinctly]
- [Devin] Put this on your head
379
00:24:41,646 --> 00:24:43,914
- [Devin] We gotta get out of here!
- [Devin's sister] Let's go.
380
00:24:43,949 --> 00:24:46,417
[Devin] I told my mom, "We
need to get you out of here,"
381
00:24:46,451 --> 00:24:49,854
and grabbed
her portable oxygen tank,
382
00:24:49,888 --> 00:24:57,061
and helped her out
and had my sister follow.
383
00:24:57,095 --> 00:25:00,531
But my little brother
wasn't outside with us.
384
00:25:00,565 --> 00:25:02,533
Luis! Luis!
385
00:25:02,567 --> 00:25:06,337
[coughing] Luis!
386
00:25:07,739 --> 00:25:12,009
Hey, wake up! Luis, get up.
387
00:25:12,777 --> 00:25:14,445
[Devin] How can he be asleep?
388
00:25:14,479 --> 00:25:17,781
Luis, get up. Get up! Get up!
389
00:25:17,816 --> 00:25:20,618
[Devin] I felt like everything
in the world had stopped.
390
00:25:20,652 --> 00:25:22,786
I felt like
my heartbeat stopped.
391
00:25:22,821 --> 00:25:28,692
- [Devin] Luis, get up!
- Devin. Devin, Devin, Devin.
392
00:25:28,727 --> 00:25:31,595
[Devin] I have never experienced
393
00:25:31,630 --> 00:25:33,364
that type of fear in my life.
394
00:25:33,398 --> 00:25:36,033
Devin, Devin.
395
00:25:37,369 --> 00:25:40,070
I saw the shadow man
in the flames.
396
00:25:41,106 --> 00:25:43,474
I felt like everything
was moving in slow-motion.
397
00:25:43,508 --> 00:25:44,708
[Devin] We gotta
get out of here!
398
00:25:44,743 --> 00:25:47,278
Finally, I just had to smack him
399
00:25:47,312 --> 00:25:48,445
in his face to wake him up.
400
00:25:48,480 --> 00:25:50,314
- What?
- Come on, Luis, let's go.
401
00:25:50,348 --> 00:25:51,849
[Devin] We gotta
get out of here.
402
00:25:52,284 --> 00:25:54,285
[Luis coughing]
403
00:25:55,353 --> 00:25:56,820
Run, Devin.
404
00:25:56,855 --> 00:25:59,590
[Devin] I remember
seeing him smile.
405
00:25:59,624 --> 00:26:05,129
Devin, Devin. De...
406
00:26:06,531 --> 00:26:09,333
I remember seeing him disappear
407
00:26:09,401 --> 00:26:11,936
and fade into the flames.
408
00:26:13,838 --> 00:26:16,240
With Devin having
confronted the Burnt Man
409
00:26:16,274 --> 00:26:17,341
on his home turf,
410
00:26:17,375 --> 00:26:19,376
now the Burnt Man pushes back.
411
00:26:19,411 --> 00:26:22,413
He's going to deal
with Devin and his family
412
00:26:22,447 --> 00:26:24,515
in their safe place,
their own home,
413
00:26:24,549 --> 00:26:27,618
by burning it down
around their ears.
414
00:26:27,652 --> 00:26:29,687
Devin and his family
are terrified,
415
00:26:29,721 --> 00:26:32,122
their lives are threatened.
416
00:26:34,793 --> 00:26:37,328
One could only imagine
that the Burnt Man
417
00:26:37,362 --> 00:26:39,296
is loving every minute of this.
418
00:26:39,331 --> 00:26:40,664
He's loving all of the fear,
419
00:26:40,699 --> 00:26:43,534
all of the terror,
all of the commotion.
420
00:26:43,568 --> 00:26:45,436
And they are lucky to escape
421
00:26:45,470 --> 00:26:48,138
from this inferno
with their lives.
422
00:26:52,611 --> 00:26:53,811
[sirens approaching]
423
00:26:53,845 --> 00:26:57,615
[Devin] I had this feeling
of sadness and dread
424
00:26:57,649 --> 00:27:01,251
as we were standing
on our front lawn...
425
00:27:04,723 --> 00:27:07,625
watching my house
being burnt down,
426
00:27:07,659 --> 00:27:10,294
and all of our
personal belongings
427
00:27:10,328 --> 00:27:13,130
being destroyed in this fire.
428
00:27:13,164 --> 00:27:15,766
[siren wailing]
429
00:27:15,800 --> 00:27:19,803
But at the same time,
I felt relieved
430
00:27:19,838 --> 00:27:22,773
because we all escaped
without any harm.
431
00:27:22,807 --> 00:27:27,578
No damage to our lungs from
the smoke, nothing like that.
432
00:27:27,612 --> 00:27:30,214
I still am amazed.
433
00:27:33,818 --> 00:27:36,820
[Devin] I think,
with the fire happening,
434
00:27:36,855 --> 00:27:39,657
that's something
that this entity did.
435
00:27:39,691 --> 00:27:42,459
I felt like that was his plan,
436
00:27:42,494 --> 00:27:45,396
and he wanted
people inside there.
437
00:27:45,430 --> 00:27:48,165
Like, I felt like he
wanted bloodshed.
438
00:27:50,602 --> 00:27:52,703
But after the house fire,
439
00:27:52,737 --> 00:27:55,572
I have not seen this entity.
440
00:27:55,607 --> 00:27:58,809
I haven't had
any occurrences with him.
441
00:27:58,843 --> 00:28:02,680
It was like that weight
that was on my shoulders,
442
00:28:02,714 --> 00:28:05,683
with the depression
and the anxiety,
443
00:28:05,717 --> 00:28:11,121
it was like years of that
was lifted off my shoulders.
444
00:28:15,527 --> 00:28:17,461
As tragic as this fire was
445
00:28:17,495 --> 00:28:20,364
with Devin and his family
losing everything,
446
00:28:20,398 --> 00:28:21,632
all of their possessions,
447
00:28:21,666 --> 00:28:23,467
all of their sentimental items,
448
00:28:23,501 --> 00:28:25,602
and their very home itself,
449
00:28:25,637 --> 00:28:28,539
there is one,
small ray of light.
450
00:28:28,573 --> 00:28:30,641
They are, at last, free
451
00:28:30,675 --> 00:28:33,610
of the Burnt Man's
malign influence
452
00:28:33,645 --> 00:28:37,047
and they can start their lives
over in peace.
453
00:28:39,350 --> 00:28:40,551
[Devin] This
has changed my life,
454
00:28:40,585 --> 00:28:42,319
I feel, for the better.
455
00:28:46,024 --> 00:28:49,960
It has made me appreciate
the little things in life.
456
00:28:52,363 --> 00:28:54,498
Appreciate my family a lot more
457
00:28:54,532 --> 00:28:57,000
and love them even more.
458
00:28:58,203 --> 00:29:00,604
It made me realize
459
00:29:00,638 --> 00:29:03,307
that family is something
you can't put a price on,
460
00:29:04,542 --> 00:29:07,411
and something that will
always be there for you.
461
00:29:09,514 --> 00:29:12,015
[siren wailing]
462
00:29:23,495 --> 00:29:25,095
[grunting]
463
00:29:25,130 --> 00:29:26,096
[howling]
464
00:29:26,664 --> 00:29:28,999
[speaking indistinctly]
465
00:29:31,636 --> 00:29:33,370
[narrator] The people
hit hardest
466
00:29:33,404 --> 00:29:35,339
by the Covid-19 pandemic
467
00:29:35,373 --> 00:29:36,373
are the elderly
468
00:29:36,407 --> 00:29:38,709
and those in long term care.
469
00:29:38,743 --> 00:29:39,610
[woman] Covid infection rates
470
00:29:39,644 --> 00:29:41,345
are on the rise.
471
00:29:41,379 --> 00:29:42,579
[sirens wailing]
472
00:29:42,614 --> 00:29:43,981
[man] The East coast of America
473
00:29:44,015 --> 00:29:44,648
has been slammed
474
00:29:44,682 --> 00:29:47,317
by a tidal wave of Covid.
475
00:29:54,392 --> 00:29:55,459
[narrator] EMT
476
00:29:55,493 --> 00:29:57,361
and firefighter Jamie Adams
477
00:29:57,395 --> 00:29:59,363
has just heard a call to duty.
478
00:29:59,397 --> 00:30:00,597
[indistinct chatter]
479
00:30:00,632 --> 00:30:02,566
The Covid pandemic had hit
480
00:30:02,600 --> 00:30:04,468
and the governor in my state
481
00:30:04,502 --> 00:30:05,536
had put out a request
482
00:30:05,570 --> 00:30:07,704
for medical volunteers,
483
00:30:07,739 --> 00:30:09,406
anybody that has
any medical training.
484
00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:11,308
I really wanted to help.
485
00:30:12,177 --> 00:30:13,377
Not sit back
486
00:30:13,411 --> 00:30:15,579
and watch the news everyday.
487
00:30:15,847 --> 00:30:16,814
Room 17,
488
00:30:16,848 --> 00:30:19,183
she needs to be flipped
on to her other side.
489
00:30:19,250 --> 00:30:20,417
- Got it.
- And I just
490
00:30:20,451 --> 00:30:21,518
checked 13 and 15,
491
00:30:21,553 --> 00:30:22,586
they're [indistinct].
492
00:30:22,620 --> 00:30:25,122
I was placed in a long term
493
00:30:25,156 --> 00:30:26,290
living facility...
494
00:30:26,324 --> 00:30:28,091
[alarm beeping]
495
00:30:33,264 --> 00:30:34,631
No, take care of that,
496
00:30:34,666 --> 00:30:36,166
the other stuff later.
497
00:30:37,836 --> 00:30:40,070
[Jamie] I was just overwhelmed.
498
00:30:43,474 --> 00:30:44,541
[heart monitor halts]
499
00:30:44,576 --> 00:30:47,244
We started losing residents.
500
00:30:48,713 --> 00:30:50,614
[narrator] By her
third week on the job,
501
00:30:50,648 --> 00:30:53,083
Jamie was exhausted.
502
00:30:56,855 --> 00:30:57,721
[Jamie] One night,
503
00:30:57,755 --> 00:31:00,924
we finally had
a couple minutes to sit.
504
00:31:00,959 --> 00:31:03,126
And I remember
putting my head down
505
00:31:13,838 --> 00:31:16,473
I saw, out of the corners
of my eyes,
506
00:31:16,507 --> 00:31:18,375
at first, these shadows.
507
00:31:19,510 --> 00:31:21,745
I'm thinking,
it's gotta be the shield.
508
00:31:22,380 --> 00:31:24,581
So, I take my shield off
509
00:31:24,616 --> 00:31:28,051
because, "Is it playing
tricks on my eyes?"
510
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:56,680
I'm seeing shadows
511
00:31:56,714 --> 00:31:59,016
at both ends of the halls.
512
00:31:59,417 --> 00:32:00,951
What's going on?
513
00:32:01,386 --> 00:32:02,386
Did you see that?
514
00:32:05,290 --> 00:32:06,390
[door creaking]
515
00:32:10,395 --> 00:32:12,062
I'll go this way,
516
00:32:12,563 --> 00:32:14,364
and you...
517
00:32:14,399 --> 00:32:15,432
Yeah.
518
00:32:18,803 --> 00:32:20,404
There's gotta be
a reason for it.
519
00:32:22,507 --> 00:32:23,573
So, I go down
520
00:32:23,608 --> 00:32:25,275
to the other end of the hall
521
00:32:28,346 --> 00:32:29,413
[door creaks]
522
00:32:31,249 --> 00:32:32,416
She's watching one way,
523
00:32:32,450 --> 00:32:34,017
I'm watching the other,
524
00:32:36,321 --> 00:32:37,854
[footsteps approaching]
525
00:32:37,889 --> 00:32:39,256
[gasping]
526
00:32:39,290 --> 00:32:41,124
- I can hear footsteps behind me.
- [footsteps approaching]

[footsteps approaching]

- [door slams]
- [yelps]
531
00:32:49,634 --> 00:32:51,201
Did you hear that?
532
00:32:54,339 --> 00:32:56,306
Now I'm starting to get scared.
533
00:32:56,341 --> 00:32:58,241
[woman] Help me!
534
00:32:58,276 --> 00:32:59,343
[footsteps approaching]
535
00:32:59,377 --> 00:33:00,477
[woman] Help me!
536
00:33:00,511 --> 00:33:01,979
[door slams]
537
00:33:02,580 --> 00:33:04,081
[woman] Help--
538
00:33:04,482 --> 00:33:04,514
[thud]
539
00:33:05,516 --> 00:33:06,984
We hear this...
540
00:33:07,518 --> 00:33:09,252
very
541
00:33:10,288 --> 00:33:12,622
loud scream
542
00:33:12,657 --> 00:33:15,525
that was female
that says, "Help me."
543
00:33:15,560 --> 00:33:18,161
And it was very clear.
544
00:33:27,405 --> 00:33:29,373
We're walking down the hallway,
545
00:33:29,407 --> 00:33:30,340
and physically checking
546
00:33:30,375 --> 00:33:31,975
every single room.
547
00:33:34,045 --> 00:33:35,879
[narrator] They check
one final room.
548
00:33:36,647 --> 00:33:38,548
Even though Jamie's coworker
549
00:33:38,583 --> 00:33:40,283
recalls the room's patient
550
00:33:40,318 --> 00:33:42,319
having passed away recently.
551
00:33:42,353 --> 00:33:44,087
She... She passed.
552
00:33:45,857 --> 00:33:50,027
[Jamie] That scream
wasn't a patient.
553
00:33:52,530 --> 00:33:54,297
That was in this room.
554
00:33:54,332 --> 00:33:55,365
[door opens]
555
00:34:07,578 --> 00:34:09,346
There's nothing.
556
00:34:09,380 --> 00:34:10,981
There's nobody there.
557
00:34:24,495 --> 00:34:26,229
When we start to take a look
558
00:34:26,264 --> 00:34:27,230
at the relationship
559
00:34:27,265 --> 00:34:28,532
between paranormal activity
560
00:34:28,566 --> 00:34:31,501
and this phenomenon
of pandemics,
561
00:34:31,536 --> 00:34:33,637
we do see an increase
in paranormal activity
562
00:34:33,671 --> 00:34:35,405
or reports during this time.
563
00:34:39,544 --> 00:34:40,644
We've got a situation
564
00:34:40,678 --> 00:34:42,779
where people are in
a heightened state of fear,
565
00:34:42,814 --> 00:34:44,781
they're panicked,
they're worried.
566
00:34:45,583 --> 00:34:47,617
Energy cannot be created
or destroyed
567
00:34:47,652 --> 00:34:49,719
and thought energy is energy.
568
00:34:49,754 --> 00:34:53,523
So, we've got this sort of
domino effect of people
569
00:34:53,558 --> 00:34:55,859
that are putting
and pumping out this fear,
570
00:34:55,893 --> 00:34:58,295
this panic, this illness,
571
00:34:58,329 --> 00:34:59,696
and upset and depression
572
00:34:59,730 --> 00:35:01,298
all into the environment.
573
00:35:04,168 --> 00:35:06,203
[narrator] Jamie
starts to question
574
00:35:06,237 --> 00:35:07,938
her own sanity.
575
00:35:10,475 --> 00:35:12,576
I was now starting to figure out
576
00:35:12,610 --> 00:35:14,344
that we aren't alone
577
00:35:14,378 --> 00:35:15,512
on this ward.
578
00:35:15,546 --> 00:35:17,114
That was not,
579
00:35:17,548 --> 00:35:19,082
you know,
580
00:35:20,585 --> 00:35:22,152
explainable.
581
00:35:22,186 --> 00:35:23,186
No, I know.
582
00:35:26,290 --> 00:35:29,292
- It...
- It's haunted, I know.
583
00:35:30,761 --> 00:35:33,096
I've seen all kind
of stuff here.
584
00:35:37,068 --> 00:35:39,402
The nurse that I was with
she's like, "Oh, I see stuff in here
585
00:35:39,437 --> 00:35:41,204
all the time."
586
00:35:44,809 --> 00:35:46,243
[narrator] The next day,
587
00:35:46,277 --> 00:35:47,310
things were only about
588
00:35:47,345 --> 00:35:49,346
to get stranger for Jamie.
589
00:35:49,380 --> 00:35:50,914
- [heart monitor beeping]
- We had a couple
590
00:35:50,948 --> 00:35:53,450
that was brought in,
they both had tested positive
591
00:35:53,484 --> 00:35:54,651
for Covid,
592
00:35:54,685 --> 00:35:57,721
and they were
at a very end room.
593
00:35:57,755 --> 00:36:01,191
And they were
in the room together.
594
00:36:03,661 --> 00:36:07,397
He was a very big man.
595
00:36:14,372 --> 00:36:16,239
That gentleman
was actively dying.
596
00:36:23,514 --> 00:36:24,814
I'm sorry.
597
00:36:25,216 --> 00:36:26,449
We ask his wife,
598
00:36:26,484 --> 00:36:28,418
"Would you like to say goodbye?"
599
00:36:28,452 --> 00:36:30,287
"Would you like
to sit and hold his hand?
600
00:36:30,321 --> 00:36:31,421
We can move your beds together,"
601
00:36:31,455 --> 00:36:32,756
we gave her different options.
602
00:36:33,457 --> 00:36:35,692
Just let me know
when it happens.
603
00:36:36,727 --> 00:36:39,062
[Jamie] And she rolls over
and goes to sleep.
604
00:36:40,898 --> 00:36:43,266
And the nurse and I
looked at each other
605
00:36:43,301 --> 00:36:45,368
like, "What?!"
606
00:36:47,605 --> 00:36:50,440
So we had finally
just pulled the curtain
607
00:36:50,474 --> 00:36:51,441
because she made it clear
608
00:36:51,475 --> 00:36:54,010
that she didn't want
any part of it.
609
00:36:58,916 --> 00:37:01,351
I had to take care
of another resident.
610
00:37:02,219 --> 00:37:02,786
I was gone
611
00:37:02,820 --> 00:37:04,287
maybe five or ten minutes
612
00:37:04,322 --> 00:37:06,289
and in that timeframe
613
00:37:06,323 --> 00:37:07,224
he had passed.
614
00:37:16,434 --> 00:37:17,734
What do you think?
615
00:37:17,768 --> 00:37:19,769
Should we wake her up
and tell her?
616
00:37:20,338 --> 00:37:22,572
And, the nurse and I...
617
00:37:22,607 --> 00:37:24,274
"We'll just let her sleep",
618
00:37:24,308 --> 00:37:26,376
because she really has wanted
619
00:37:26,410 --> 00:37:27,978
no part of this.
620
00:37:30,748 --> 00:37:35,518
So we quietly remove the bed
621
00:37:35,553 --> 00:37:36,486
with this body out of there
622
00:37:36,520 --> 00:37:39,322
so that she's not
in the same room.
623
00:37:42,460 --> 00:37:44,427
And it was later on
that I found out
624
00:37:44,462 --> 00:37:46,329
that this was a very...
625
00:37:49,400 --> 00:37:51,635
different kind of a marriage.
626
00:37:51,669 --> 00:37:53,803
It was almost like
a love, hate thing.
627
00:37:53,838 --> 00:37:58,475
And, they did not have
a real loving relationship
628
00:37:58,509 --> 00:38:01,578
that the nurses had ever seen
or witnessed.
629
00:38:01,612 --> 00:38:03,546
It was just this huge
630
00:38:03,581 --> 00:38:05,415
toxic dynamic.
631
00:38:08,719 --> 00:38:10,387
[narrator] Later that night,
632
00:38:10,421 --> 00:38:11,655
Jamie and her coworker
633
00:38:11,689 --> 00:38:13,957
are at the nurses' station.
634
00:38:19,764 --> 00:38:22,299
[Jamie] And the wife
comes walking out
635
00:38:22,333 --> 00:38:23,967
to the nurses' station.
636
00:38:27,571 --> 00:38:29,239
[Jamie] Hey!
637
00:38:29,273 --> 00:38:30,373
How are you doing tonight?
638
00:38:31,475 --> 00:38:33,176
I had Covid.
639
00:38:33,644 --> 00:38:35,245
What do you think?
640
00:38:36,213 --> 00:38:37,347
Okay.
641
00:38:40,584 --> 00:38:41,518
[woman groans]
642
00:38:41,552 --> 00:38:43,386
[howls]
643
00:38:43,421 --> 00:38:45,455
[Jamie] She took a nasty fall.
644
00:38:45,489 --> 00:38:47,324
She went down so hard,
645
00:38:47,358 --> 00:38:49,092
it looked like
somebody pushed her.
646
00:38:49,493 --> 00:38:51,261
[groans in pain]
647
00:38:51,295 --> 00:38:54,264
She had multiple fractures...
648
00:38:54,298 --> 00:38:55,498
[groaning]
649
00:38:55,533 --> 00:38:57,067
[man speaking indistinctly]
650
00:38:57,101 --> 00:38:58,401
[groans]
651
00:38:59,603 --> 00:39:03,406
[distorted voice]
We used to hate each other.
652
00:39:03,441 --> 00:39:05,342
[voice speaking indistinctly]
653
00:39:06,977 --> 00:39:08,411
All my hair
was standing up on end,
654
00:39:08,446 --> 00:39:10,213
I was in complete shock.
655
00:39:10,581 --> 00:39:12,182
I saw...
656
00:39:12,216 --> 00:39:13,316
a black shadow.
657
00:39:13,351 --> 00:39:14,317
[woman sobbing]
658
00:39:14,352 --> 00:39:16,086
You could tell by the size
659
00:39:16,454 --> 00:39:17,387
it was him.
660
00:39:18,322 --> 00:39:20,190
Her husband pushed her.
661
00:39:20,224 --> 00:39:21,291
- [woman sobs]
- Jamie?
662
00:39:21,325 --> 00:39:22,592
- [woman groans]
- Jamie?
663
00:39:22,626 --> 00:39:24,961
[woman wailing]
664
00:39:25,563 --> 00:39:27,964
I was in complete shock.
665
00:39:28,466 --> 00:39:30,033
[panting]
666
00:39:31,535 --> 00:39:32,602
[heart monitor beeping]
667
00:39:32,636 --> 00:39:34,571
[narrator] After her patient's
accident,
668
00:39:34,605 --> 00:39:36,339
-an air of darkness
- [emergency alarm buzzing]
669
00:39:36,374 --> 00:39:38,208
started to take over the ward.
670
00:39:38,242 --> 00:39:39,309
[alarms buzzing]
671
00:39:44,648 --> 00:39:47,050
[heart monitor beeps]
672
00:39:57,461 --> 00:39:58,728
I just felt like
673
00:39:58,763 --> 00:40:01,431
this depression had come over
674
00:40:02,433 --> 00:40:03,466
that unit.
675
00:40:03,501 --> 00:40:05,602
You walk off the wing,
it felt different
676
00:40:05,636 --> 00:40:08,538
and you walk back
into the wing and it's like,
677
00:40:08,572 --> 00:40:11,074
this oppressive
678
00:40:11,108 --> 00:40:12,842
just weight
679
00:40:13,144 --> 00:40:14,077
on you.
680
00:40:19,350 --> 00:40:21,217
And it just got worse
681
00:40:21,252 --> 00:40:22,352
and worse and worse
682
00:40:22,386 --> 00:40:25,255
because you're dealing
with death
683
00:40:25,289 --> 00:40:26,956
every single day.
684
00:40:27,725 --> 00:40:29,325
[narrator] Jamie fights through
685
00:40:29,360 --> 00:40:30,660
the dark shroud of death
686
00:40:30,694 --> 00:40:32,595
hanging over the unit
687
00:40:32,630 --> 00:40:35,131
and focuses on comforting
her patients.
688
00:40:38,202 --> 00:40:39,436
And these people,
689
00:40:39,470 --> 00:40:41,037
they can't have family come in.
690
00:40:41,772 --> 00:40:44,340
They can't have friends come in,
691
00:40:44,375 --> 00:40:46,910
so they're gonna die alone.
692
00:40:47,478 --> 00:40:49,279
[man breathing heavily]
693
00:40:50,581 --> 00:40:52,282
We are the last touch
694
00:40:52,316 --> 00:40:53,983
that they're gonna feel.
695
00:40:57,588 --> 00:40:58,655
[man breathing heavily]
696
00:40:58,689 --> 00:41:01,458
So I'm sitting
with this one resident
697
00:41:01,492 --> 00:41:04,561
and, talking to him
698
00:41:04,595 --> 00:41:06,362
holding his hand,
699
00:41:06,397 --> 00:41:07,964
and I've got my head down,
700
00:41:07,998 --> 00:41:08,798
and I'm saying a prayer,
701
00:41:08,833 --> 00:41:11,468
I'm just asking
that he goes quickly
702
00:41:11,502 --> 00:41:13,570
and peacefully.
703
00:41:13,604 --> 00:41:15,338
[heart monitor beep fades]
704
00:41:18,542 --> 00:41:21,878
I'm feeling the hairs on the
back of my neck stand up,
705
00:41:21,912 --> 00:41:26,115
I just feel like
this charging of the room.
706
00:41:29,386 --> 00:41:30,987
[ominous wind blowing]
707
00:41:34,358 --> 00:41:36,292
[heart monitor beeping]
708
00:41:36,327 --> 00:41:38,428
It wasn't...
709
00:41:38,462 --> 00:41:40,196
anything that freaked me out,
710
00:41:40,231 --> 00:41:41,364
it was comforting.
711
00:41:41,398 --> 00:41:43,399
[heart monitor beeping]
712
00:41:46,437 --> 00:41:48,137
[gasps]
713
00:41:49,406 --> 00:41:51,207
[heart monitor stops]
714
00:42:00,551 --> 00:42:02,252
I've got goosebumps now
715
00:42:02,286 --> 00:42:03,386
just talking about it.
716
00:42:12,596 --> 00:42:15,732
I honestly think that
it's former residents,
717
00:42:15,766 --> 00:42:18,434
and they're all coming
into his room
718
00:42:18,469 --> 00:42:21,337
to say, "We're here with you."
719
00:42:22,673 --> 00:42:24,274
[narrator] The next day,
720
00:42:24,308 --> 00:42:26,209
things started to change.
721
00:42:29,580 --> 00:42:31,648
We came in to work,
722
00:42:31,682 --> 00:42:32,749
we weren't losing
any more residents,
723
00:42:32,783 --> 00:42:35,418
I wasn't seeing any more death.
724
00:42:42,159 --> 00:42:43,092
[Jamie] Hey.
725
00:42:44,261 --> 00:42:45,094
How's it going?
726
00:42:45,696 --> 00:42:47,964
[nurse] Actually, not bad.
727
00:42:49,533 --> 00:42:51,034
Well, today's my last day.
728
00:42:51,602 --> 00:42:52,969
Yeah.
729
00:42:53,771 --> 00:42:55,616
It was really nice
working with you.
730
00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:58,007
Yeah, until next time.
731
00:43:00,811 --> 00:43:03,379
[Jamie] And I just keep
going back
732
00:43:03,414 --> 00:43:05,748
to all of the energy changes
733
00:43:05,783 --> 00:43:07,984
that I felt throughout the time.
734
00:43:08,719 --> 00:43:12,355
I experienced such a wide range
735
00:43:12,389 --> 00:43:13,523
of emotions
736
00:43:13,557 --> 00:43:16,960
and some were so intense.
737
00:43:18,596 --> 00:43:19,729
Being scared,
738
00:43:19,763 --> 00:43:21,464
'cause we don't know
what's going to happen
739
00:43:21,498 --> 00:43:23,199
with these people and...
740
00:43:23,233 --> 00:43:24,801
[muted speech]
741
00:43:24,835 --> 00:43:26,736
Feeling completely at peace
742
00:43:26,770 --> 00:43:30,106
when things were finally
starting to get better.
743
00:43:34,578 --> 00:43:36,212
It was almost like
744
00:43:36,246 --> 00:43:37,580
these spirits knew
745
00:43:37,615 --> 00:43:40,416
this Covid pandemic
was going on.
746
00:43:40,451 --> 00:43:41,417
I think
747
00:43:41,452 --> 00:43:43,119
that they were there
748
00:43:43,654 --> 00:43:46,022
to take care of people
749
00:43:46,590 --> 00:43:48,391
when nobody else could.
