1
00:00:00,867 --> 00:00:02,600
[Heather] It seems
so quiet in here.
2
00:00:03,700 --> 00:00:05,300
Is there anyone here with me?
3
00:00:06,567 --> 00:00:07,567
Oh, my God!
4
00:00:07,567 --> 00:00:09,767
-Phil!
-Heather?
5
00:00:09,767 --> 00:00:11,767
-Get over here right now!
-What's going on?
6
00:00:11,767 --> 00:00:13,867
A body is in the tree.
7
00:00:13,867 --> 00:00:15,467
[Phil] Oh, my gosh.
8
00:00:15,467 --> 00:00:18,400
[Josh] On this episode
of Expedition X...
9
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:19,667
[Phil] Whoo! There it is.
10
00:00:19,667 --> 00:00:21,000
-Oh, my goodness.
-Whoa. [laughs]
11
00:00:21,867 --> 00:00:23,700
[Josh] My team
travels to England
12
00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:26,467
to investigate
its most haunted castle.
13
00:00:26,467 --> 00:00:28,400
I was bodily thrown
against the wall.
14
00:00:29,100 --> 00:00:32,667
It was very violent.
And there was blood.
15
00:00:32,667 --> 00:00:35,000
[Josh] A place
of brutal violence.
16
00:00:35,000 --> 00:00:37,700
Thousands died
in its dungeons.
17
00:00:37,700 --> 00:00:39,000
Why did you kill your wife?
18
00:00:39,767 --> 00:00:41,033
[distorted voice speaking]
19
00:00:41,033 --> 00:00:44,767
[Josh] Now, the souls of both
the tortured and the torturer
20
00:00:44,767 --> 00:00:47,467
are said to haunt its halls.
21
00:00:47,467 --> 00:00:49,734
Did you like causing terror?
22
00:00:50,400 --> 00:00:51,967
-[camera thuds]
-[Heather gasps]
23
00:00:51,967 --> 00:00:53,667
[Phil and Heather] Oh, my God.
24
00:00:53,667 --> 00:00:56,500
[Josh] Horrifying history
will be uncovered...
25
00:00:57,166 --> 00:00:58,567
[Phil] Oh, [bleep].
26
00:00:58,567 --> 00:01:00,367
-What, what, what, what, what?
-[Phil] Look. Look, look,
look, look!
27
00:01:00,367 --> 00:01:03,100
-[Heather] Is that a rib bone?
-[Phil] That looks like
a rib bone.
28
00:01:03,100 --> 00:01:04,900
[Josh] ...as Phil and Heather
check in
29
00:01:04,900 --> 00:01:07,200
to the castle of the damned.
30
00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:08,033
[Heather] Are you
the little boy
31
00:01:08,033 --> 00:01:10,400
whose skeleton was found
in this room?
32
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:11,867
[creepy music playing]
33
00:01:11,867 --> 00:01:12,600
[gasps]
34
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:14,934
[bleep] my life,
[bleep] my life.
35
00:01:25,967 --> 00:01:27,100
[Heather] All right, y'all.
36
00:01:27,100 --> 00:01:29,000
Take a look at this picture
and tell me what you see.
37
00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,166
[Phil] Looks like a person.
38
00:01:31,166 --> 00:01:34,100
[Josh] If you squint,
it almost looks like
a suit of armor.
39
00:01:34,100 --> 00:01:35,300
Exactly.
40
00:01:35,300 --> 00:01:37,000
That's what people
think they're seeing.
41
00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,367
A figure in a suit of armor.
42
00:01:38,367 --> 00:01:39,567
But here's the thing.
43
00:01:39,567 --> 00:01:40,667
There was no one there.
44
00:01:40,667 --> 00:01:41,867
And this picture was taken
45
00:01:41,867 --> 00:01:44,600
at supposedly
the most haunted castle
in all of England.
46
00:01:44,600 --> 00:01:45,767
Chillingham.
47
00:01:45,767 --> 00:01:48,767
Seriously, a haunted castle
and it's called Chillingham?
48
00:01:48,767 --> 00:01:50,967
[laughs] I know, I know,
that tracks, right?
49
00:01:50,967 --> 00:01:52,266
The spelling has evolved
over the years,
50
00:01:52,266 --> 00:01:54,767
but the chilling part
goes way back.
51
00:01:54,767 --> 00:01:57,800
Something tells me
this castle doesn't have
the most charming history.
52
00:01:57,800 --> 00:01:58,867
No, hell, no.
53
00:01:58,867 --> 00:02:01,800
This place will make
even George R.R. Martin blush.
54
00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:05,567
It has centuries worth of war,
murder, torture, you name it.
55
00:02:05,567 --> 00:02:08,100
It's been
in the owner's family
for over 800 years,
56
00:02:08,100 --> 00:02:09,667
and they're convinced
it's haunted.
57
00:02:09,667 --> 00:02:11,467
They're the ones
that sent me this picture.
58
00:02:11,467 --> 00:02:13,367
So, Chillingham,
I know this place.
59
00:02:13,367 --> 00:02:15,300
It really has
an incredible history.
60
00:02:15,300 --> 00:02:18,367
Some of the very worst
tortures imaginable
61
00:02:18,367 --> 00:02:20,800
were said to be invented
at Chillingham.
62
00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:22,066
Supposedly,
63
00:02:22,066 --> 00:02:25,300
this is one of the most
blood-soaked castles
in all of Britain.
64
00:02:28,667 --> 00:02:30,800
Four thousand castles
still stand
65
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,367
in the United Kingdom.
66
00:02:32,367 --> 00:02:34,767
But when it comes
to violence, horror,
67
00:02:34,767 --> 00:02:37,166
and potential
paranormal activity,
68
00:02:37,166 --> 00:02:40,133
nothing comes close
to Chillingham.
69
00:02:42,066 --> 00:02:44,300
Located in the wilderness
of northern England
70
00:02:44,300 --> 00:02:47,567
on the border
with historic rival Scotland,
71
00:02:47,567 --> 00:02:50,300
Chillingham castle was built
in the 13th century
72
00:02:50,300 --> 00:02:52,367
by the noble Grey family
73
00:02:52,367 --> 00:02:55,133
on the site
of a former monastery.
74
00:02:56,100 --> 00:02:57,100
In 1286,
75
00:02:57,100 --> 00:03:00,100
the death of Scotland's king
Alexander III,
76
00:03:00,100 --> 00:03:04,700
triggers a succession crisis
as he had no direct heirs.
77
00:03:04,700 --> 00:03:08,467
England's king, Edward,
seeks to exploit
Alexander's death
78
00:03:08,467 --> 00:03:12,000
by establishing himself
as Scotland's monarch.
79
00:03:13,867 --> 00:03:16,100
Scotland resists
the English king,
80
00:03:16,100 --> 00:03:20,166
igniting the war
of Scottish Independence
in 1296.
81
00:03:20,166 --> 00:03:22,100
Chillingham is on
the front line,
82
00:03:22,100 --> 00:03:24,266
becoming the base
of operations for Edward
83
00:03:24,266 --> 00:03:27,767
during the long
and bloody campaign
against the Scots
84
00:03:27,767 --> 00:03:30,200
who are led
by William Wallace,
85
00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,467
better known as Braveheart.
86
00:03:32,467 --> 00:03:35,667
[man shouts]
Death to the false king
of Scotland!
87
00:03:35,667 --> 00:03:37,867
[Josh] Many of the Scottish
soldiers captured
88
00:03:37,867 --> 00:03:40,567
end up
in the castle's dungeons.
89
00:03:40,567 --> 00:03:43,700
But they may have wished
they died on the battlefield.
90
00:03:43,700 --> 00:03:45,200
A man named John Sage
91
00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:48,400
is said to have been appointed
chief interrogator.
92
00:03:48,400 --> 00:03:49,433
[soldier screams]
93
00:03:49,433 --> 00:03:52,767
[Josh] He reportedly kills
50 people a week,
94
00:03:52,767 --> 00:03:56,100
torturing his victims
with horrific innovations.
95
00:03:58,100 --> 00:04:01,767
Like the Rack
and the Iron Maiden,
96
00:04:01,767 --> 00:04:04,300
a metal coffin
lined with spikes,
97
00:04:04,300 --> 00:04:07,800
which was closed
while the victim
was still alive.
98
00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:09,767
Thousands die at Chillingham,
99
00:04:09,767 --> 00:04:12,700
tortured, burned alive
or starved to death
100
00:04:12,700 --> 00:04:16,767
in the dungeon's
most dreaded chamber
known as the oubliette.
101
00:04:16,767 --> 00:04:20,367
Ultimately, king Edward
fails to subdue the Scots.
102
00:04:20,367 --> 00:04:22,667
Skirmishes continue
for centuries,
103
00:04:22,667 --> 00:04:25,500
and Chillingham remains
on the bloody front line.
104
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:27,233
It's no surprise
105
00:04:27,233 --> 00:04:30,867
that reports
of paranormal activity
eventually emerge.
106
00:04:30,867 --> 00:04:33,467
The first written accounts
of Chillingham's ghosts
107
00:04:33,467 --> 00:04:36,967
appear in a pamphlet
published in 1925
108
00:04:36,967 --> 00:04:39,467
by Lady Leonora Tankerville.
109
00:04:39,467 --> 00:04:41,700
She becomes so fearful
of the paranormal,
110
00:04:41,700 --> 00:04:43,266
that she seeks the services
111
00:04:43,266 --> 00:04:47,000
of notorious
Victorian occultist
Aleister Crowley.
112
00:04:48,867 --> 00:04:50,467
Crowley travels to Chillingham
113
00:04:50,467 --> 00:04:52,667
and reportedly
conducts rituals
114
00:04:52,667 --> 00:04:55,100
that some believe
cause something sinister
115
00:04:55,100 --> 00:04:57,500
to slip through
from the netherworld.
116
00:04:58,266 --> 00:05:00,567
Today,
visitors routinely report
117
00:05:00,567 --> 00:05:03,667
terrifying encounters
inside Chillingham.
118
00:05:03,667 --> 00:05:05,367
Full body apparitions,
119
00:05:05,367 --> 00:05:09,367
including regular reports
of a mysterious Blue Boy,
120
00:05:09,367 --> 00:05:11,867
horrifying, disturbing voices.
121
00:05:11,867 --> 00:05:13,266
And worst of all,
122
00:05:13,266 --> 00:05:17,467
people say they are attacked
by violent poltergeists.
123
00:05:17,467 --> 00:05:20,266
The property's current owner,
Sir Humphry Wakefield,
124
00:05:20,266 --> 00:05:22,767
is convinced his castle
is haunted
125
00:05:22,767 --> 00:05:25,967
and that the activity
is only getting worse.
126
00:05:25,967 --> 00:05:31,300
Do the walls of Chillingham
still hold the souls of those
that suffered here?
127
00:05:37,266 --> 00:05:40,567
A violent history
spanning centuries,
stunning evidence,
128
00:05:40,567 --> 00:05:44,166
and the Godfather
of the occult himself,
Mr. Aleister Crowley
129
00:05:44,166 --> 00:05:45,767
believes this place is legit?
130
00:05:45,767 --> 00:05:47,667
Come on now,
we have to investigate.
131
00:05:47,667 --> 00:05:50,300
Crowley certainly
took his paranormal research
seriously.
132
00:05:50,300 --> 00:05:52,467
If he thought Chillingham
was worth his time,
133
00:05:52,467 --> 00:05:53,967
it could certainly
be worth hours.
134
00:05:53,967 --> 00:05:55,367
What do you think, Phil?
135
00:05:55,367 --> 00:05:56,767
I guess the first thing
that comes to my mind
136
00:05:56,767 --> 00:05:59,166
when I hear
of a horrifying castle is
137
00:05:59,166 --> 00:06:01,867
did any of this history
actually happen?
138
00:06:01,867 --> 00:06:03,967
Or is it all about
luring the tourists?
139
00:06:03,967 --> 00:06:06,100
For all we know,
it could've been exaggerated
140
00:06:06,100 --> 00:06:10,367
in what is essentially
a 1000-year-long game
of telephone.
141
00:06:10,367 --> 00:06:12,300
How much of it
can we actually believe?
142
00:06:12,300 --> 00:06:13,467
You have trust issues,
don't you, Phil?
143
00:06:13,467 --> 00:06:16,967
Listen,
I'm not flatly denying that
any of it happened.
144
00:06:16,967 --> 00:06:18,867
I'm just saying
I'd be curious to look
at Chillingham
145
00:06:18,867 --> 00:06:20,767
through an archeological lens.
146
00:06:20,767 --> 00:06:22,900
If so many of these
ghostly encounters
147
00:06:22,900 --> 00:06:27,166
are based on this history
of war and murder,
148
00:06:27,166 --> 00:06:29,667
what physical evidence
was left behind?
149
00:06:29,667 --> 00:06:30,367
I agree with you.
150
00:06:30,367 --> 00:06:31,900
If Chillingham's
the real deal,
151
00:06:31,900 --> 00:06:34,467
it should be filled
with historic evidence.
152
00:06:34,467 --> 00:06:35,900
Your job's to go find it.
153
00:06:35,900 --> 00:06:37,100
Wait, so,
we're all in agreement?
154
00:06:37,100 --> 00:06:39,166
-Haunted castle time?
-Haunted castle time.
155
00:06:39,166 --> 00:06:40,033
Absolutely.
156
00:06:40,033 --> 00:06:41,467
Your mission
is to get to Chillingham,
157
00:06:41,467 --> 00:06:43,367
meet with Sir Humphry
and his staff,
158
00:06:43,367 --> 00:06:45,800
and figure out
if this is a genuine haunting
159
00:06:45,800 --> 00:06:49,367
or just a case of folklore
taking on a life of its own.
160
00:06:49,367 --> 00:06:51,133
-Let's do it.
-Let's go.
161
00:06:52,100 --> 00:06:53,000
[Josh] From the Big Apple,
162
00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,400
it's a seven-hour hop
across the pond
163
00:06:55,400 --> 00:06:56,934
to Edinburgh, Scotland.
164
00:06:57,266 --> 00:06:58,433
From there,
165
00:06:58,433 --> 00:07:01,000
Phil and Heather
drive an hour south
to Chillingham,
166
00:07:01,000 --> 00:07:03,100
crossing the border
into England.
167
00:07:05,667 --> 00:07:09,700
Wow, this countryside
is stunning.
168
00:07:10,667 --> 00:07:12,033
[Heather chuckles]
It is beautiful.
169
00:07:12,467 --> 00:07:13,700
But remember,
170
00:07:13,700 --> 00:07:16,467
that all of that beauty hides
some really sinister history.
171
00:07:16,467 --> 00:07:19,166
Oh, boy, you about to ruin
this nice, lovely road trip
for us?
172
00:07:19,166 --> 00:07:20,433
[Heather] I am.
173
00:07:20,433 --> 00:07:21,800
-I'm gonna bring you
right back down to earth.
-[Phil] Okay.
174
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:24,367
[Heather] So,
this is actually the site
175
00:07:24,367 --> 00:07:27,867
of the battle of Flodden field
in 1513.
176
00:07:27,867 --> 00:07:30,000
And that's where
10,000 Scotsman died
177
00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:32,867
and 4000 Englishmen died
all in one day.
178
00:07:32,867 --> 00:07:35,400
-Fourteen thousand people
in a single day.
-Yeah.
179
00:07:35,400 --> 00:07:36,900
[Phil] That is a lot of death.
180
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:41,767
Whoo! There it is.
181
00:07:41,767 --> 00:07:44,266
-Oh, my goodness.
-Whoa! [laughs]
182
00:07:44,266 --> 00:07:46,200
[Phil] This is like
a storybook castle.
183
00:07:46,867 --> 00:07:48,567
Only this is
a much darker story.
184
00:07:48,567 --> 00:07:49,934
I wouldn't read this to kids.
185
00:07:50,967 --> 00:07:52,867
Should we go meet Sir Humphry?
186
00:07:52,867 --> 00:07:54,600
And don't forget the "sir".
187
00:07:54,967 --> 00:07:55,934
Sir it is.
188
00:07:58,867 --> 00:08:00,467
Sir Humphry.
189
00:08:00,467 --> 00:08:03,000
-It's an honor to meet you.
Thanks for having us here.
-Thank you very much.
190
00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:04,367
Good to meet you indeed.
191
00:08:04,367 --> 00:08:06,867
[Heather]
Sir Humphry Wakefield
married into the Grey family,
192
00:08:06,867 --> 00:08:08,467
the custodians
of Chillingham Castle
193
00:08:08,467 --> 00:08:10,500
for over eight centuries.
194
00:08:10,500 --> 00:08:11,967
At 92 years old,
195
00:08:11,967 --> 00:08:14,066
he continues to preserve
the castle's legacy
196
00:08:14,066 --> 00:08:16,200
and has opened its grounds
to the public.
197
00:08:17,367 --> 00:08:19,367
[Phil] Wow.
198
00:08:19,367 --> 00:08:20,667
What's the name of this room?
199
00:08:20,667 --> 00:08:22,867
This is the Great Hall.
200
00:08:22,867 --> 00:08:25,967
[Heather] This castle's
been in your wife's family
for 800 years?
201
00:08:25,967 --> 00:08:27,033
[Sir Humphry]
That's right, yes.
202
00:08:27,700 --> 00:08:28,900
[Heather]
When did you first learn
203
00:08:28,900 --> 00:08:30,767
that this castle
might be haunted?
204
00:08:30,767 --> 00:08:32,634
[Sir Humphry]
When I first came here...
205
00:08:38,300 --> 00:08:40,033
I said, "Fine, please do."
206
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:43,500
He came and said
there were too many ghosts,
207
00:08:43,500 --> 00:08:45,100
he couldn't deal with them.
208
00:08:45,967 --> 00:08:48,967
-So, Sir Humphry,
given the history here...
-[Sir Humphry] Yes.
209
00:08:48,967 --> 00:08:52,266
...given what it seems
like a lot of people
have experienced here,
210
00:08:52,266 --> 00:08:54,000
do you think
this place is haunted?
211
00:08:55,367 --> 00:08:57,333
Too many unlikely things
have happened.
212
00:08:59,567 --> 00:09:02,000
[Phil]
With Sir Humphry's words
echoing in our ears,
213
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:05,800
he directs us
to meet his castle historian,
Richard Craig.
214
00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,900
[Heather] Richard,
nice to see you.
215
00:09:08,900 --> 00:09:10,266
[Phil] Richard is an expert
216
00:09:10,266 --> 00:09:12,900
on Chillingham's
millennia-spanning history
217
00:09:12,900 --> 00:09:15,667
and its bloodcurdling
hauntings.
218
00:09:15,667 --> 00:09:17,834
This is
the king Edward I Room.
219
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:22,367
There's a lot of castles
across the UK.
220
00:09:22,367 --> 00:09:25,266
-A lot of them
claim to be haunted.
-Mmm-hmm.
221
00:09:25,266 --> 00:09:26,567
What is it about this place
222
00:09:26,567 --> 00:09:29,033
that you think makes it
stand out the most?
223
00:09:30,266 --> 00:09:32,667
[Richard] During the first
Scottish War of Independence,
224
00:09:32,667 --> 00:09:37,767
it's estimated that some
7500 poor souls
225
00:09:37,767 --> 00:09:42,266
were brought here
to be subjected and tortured.
226
00:09:42,266 --> 00:09:45,467
[Heather]
Seven and a half thousand
were tortured in this castle?
227
00:09:45,467 --> 00:09:46,700
[Richard] Mmm-hmm.
228
00:09:46,700 --> 00:09:50,367
There's no bloody history
in this castle
without John Sage.
229
00:09:50,367 --> 00:09:52,767
He was the torturer
of the castle,
230
00:09:52,767 --> 00:09:55,266
appointed by Edward the first
231
00:09:55,266 --> 00:10:01,200
to try and find information
relating to William Wallace.
232
00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:03,500
[Phil] How would he
interrogate people?
233
00:10:03,500 --> 00:10:06,200
They'd be taken
to the torture chamber,
234
00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,400
subject to hot irons.
235
00:10:10,667 --> 00:10:16,000
It would escalate
to the most feared device
in the torture chamber.
236
00:10:16,400 --> 00:10:18,066
The Rack.
237
00:10:18,066 --> 00:10:20,467
People would be roped
into the Rack
238
00:10:20,467 --> 00:10:23,233
and then stretched
ever so slowly
239
00:10:24,066 --> 00:10:27,000
until joints began to pop.
240
00:10:27,467 --> 00:10:29,266
[soldier screams]
241
00:10:29,266 --> 00:10:30,300
Oh, my God.
242
00:10:30,300 --> 00:10:31,700
Bones began to break.
243
00:10:32,266 --> 00:10:34,467
Still alive, of course.
244
00:10:34,467 --> 00:10:36,634
Other ones would be thrown
in the oubliette.
245
00:10:37,100 --> 00:10:38,767
What's the oubliette?
246
00:10:38,767 --> 00:10:40,467
The oubliette
is basically a hole
247
00:10:40,467 --> 00:10:42,266
in the floor of the dungeon
248
00:10:42,266 --> 00:10:44,233
with quite a significant drop.
249
00:10:44,667 --> 00:10:45,800
That was end of the road.
250
00:10:45,800 --> 00:10:49,500
Because oubliette
comes from the French word
oublier,
251
00:10:49,867 --> 00:10:52,000
which means to forget.
252
00:10:52,467 --> 00:10:53,900
And that's what would happen.
253
00:10:55,100 --> 00:10:56,600
This room where we're standing
254
00:10:56,600 --> 00:10:59,367
is also known
as the killing room.
255
00:10:59,367 --> 00:11:01,266
-We're standing
in the killing room?
-[Richard] Yes.
256
00:11:01,266 --> 00:11:07,000
John Sage was burning people
in the courtyard at the stake.
257
00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:11,667
He assembled the children
of these people in here
258
00:11:11,667 --> 00:11:13,400
to watch their parents
being burned.
259
00:11:15,867 --> 00:11:17,033
-Did someone kill him?
-That...
260
00:11:18,266 --> 00:11:19,300
Yes.
261
00:11:19,567 --> 00:11:20,900
Good.
262
00:11:20,900 --> 00:11:23,467
He met a very sticky end.
263
00:11:23,467 --> 00:11:27,266
John Sage's wife
died by his hand.
264
00:11:27,266 --> 00:11:28,500
He strangled her.
265
00:11:29,100 --> 00:11:30,767
And consequently,
266
00:11:30,767 --> 00:11:33,767
he was hung, drawn
and then quartered.
267
00:11:33,767 --> 00:11:39,500
And it is said
that his ghost haunts
this castle.
268
00:11:39,500 --> 00:11:41,233
It's a very violent presence.
269
00:11:41,867 --> 00:11:42,900
Just last weekend,
270
00:11:42,900 --> 00:11:46,200
we were moving through
the Great Hall in a group.
271
00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,700
Suddenly,
one girl was thrown bodily
to the floor.
272
00:11:50,567 --> 00:11:52,734
And I was bodily thrown
against the wall.
273
00:11:54,367 --> 00:11:56,266
[Heather]
Physically thrown around.
274
00:11:56,266 --> 00:11:59,600
It was very violent
and there was blood.
275
00:12:00,467 --> 00:12:04,266
John Sage was out for blood,
and he got it.
276
00:12:04,266 --> 00:12:06,900
What makes you think
it was John Sage?
277
00:12:06,900 --> 00:12:10,700
Because we were provoking him.
278
00:12:10,700 --> 00:12:13,100
-If we were to try
to provoke him...
-[Richard] Mmm-hmm?
279
00:12:13,100 --> 00:12:14,467
...what would we do?
280
00:12:14,467 --> 00:12:15,567
Go down the route of,
281
00:12:15,567 --> 00:12:17,700
"Everybody said
you were a monster.
282
00:12:18,166 --> 00:12:20,100
Prove this to us."
283
00:12:20,100 --> 00:12:22,300
And then see where that goes.
284
00:12:22,300 --> 00:12:28,000
This place is like
nothing else on Earth.
285
00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:34,266
Chillingham is the holy grail
of paranormal activity.
286
00:12:34,266 --> 00:12:36,200
Believe me.
287
00:12:37,500 --> 00:12:41,300
[Phil]
With over 30,000 square feet
of castle to investigate,
288
00:12:41,300 --> 00:12:44,767
Heather and I get to work
setting up cameras
in the most active rooms.
289
00:12:44,767 --> 00:12:45,867
So far, so good. Heather.
290
00:12:45,867 --> 00:12:47,767
First up,
the king Edward Room,
291
00:12:47,767 --> 00:12:50,300
also known as
the killing room,
292
00:12:50,300 --> 00:12:52,467
where visitors have reported
shadow figures
293
00:12:52,467 --> 00:12:54,700
and objects
moving on their own.
294
00:12:54,700 --> 00:12:56,367
As well as the dungeon,
295
00:12:56,367 --> 00:12:58,767
where Richard tells us
the disembodied wailing
296
00:12:58,767 --> 00:13:02,467
of John Sage's prisoners
can still be heard.
297
00:13:02,467 --> 00:13:04,467
We set up a camera
in the Pink Room,
298
00:13:04,467 --> 00:13:07,166
reportedly the castle's
most haunted bedroom,
299
00:13:07,166 --> 00:13:08,500
where the ghost
of a little boy
300
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:10,967
is said to appear
as a blue orb.
301
00:13:10,967 --> 00:13:14,000
And we make sure to monitor
the castle's chapel,
302
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:15,767
where Aleister Crowley
was rumored
303
00:13:15,767 --> 00:13:18,000
to have performed
occult rituals
304
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,300
and some even say
305
00:13:19,300 --> 00:13:22,166
opened a portal
to another dimension.
306
00:13:22,166 --> 00:13:25,000
Lastly, we position a camera
at the Great Hall...
307
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:26,867
Can you tilt up little bit?
308
00:13:26,867 --> 00:13:29,367
...where Richard says
he and his guests recently had
309
00:13:29,367 --> 00:13:31,667
their violent encounter
with John Sage.
310
00:13:31,667 --> 00:13:34,066
-[over radio] Great Hall,
we got it.
-[Heather] Copy that.
311
00:13:34,066 --> 00:13:36,467
[Phil] Our producer, Brian,
will be monitoring the cameras
312
00:13:36,467 --> 00:13:38,867
for any unusual activity.
313
00:13:38,867 --> 00:13:40,100
All right,
all cameras are recording.
314
00:13:40,100 --> 00:13:41,200
Looking good.
315
00:13:41,200 --> 00:13:43,800
[Phil] As night falls,
we head to the Great Hall
316
00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:45,100
to investigate reports
317
00:13:45,100 --> 00:13:47,900
of the bloodthirsty ghost
of John Sage.
318
00:13:52,367 --> 00:13:53,600
[sighs] Okay.
319
00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:55,233
[Heather] The Great Hall.
320
00:13:56,467 --> 00:13:57,400
[Phil] Geez.
321
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,500
[Heather] There's so much
history in here.
322
00:14:00,266 --> 00:14:01,266
[Phil] Look at these weapons
323
00:14:01,266 --> 00:14:03,433
just laid out everywhere
in here.
324
00:14:05,667 --> 00:14:06,567
[Heather] There are
so many artifacts,
325
00:14:06,567 --> 00:14:08,867
each could have
its own residual energy.
326
00:14:08,867 --> 00:14:09,834
[Phil] Yeah.
327
00:14:13,266 --> 00:14:14,600
There's so many figures
in here.
328
00:14:15,400 --> 00:14:16,634
Knight in shining armor.
329
00:14:17,667 --> 00:14:19,133
It's like they're all
staring at you.
330
00:14:20,967 --> 00:14:22,066
[Heather] Remember,
331
00:14:22,066 --> 00:14:25,200
this is where Richard said
a violent attack happened.
332
00:14:29,500 --> 00:14:31,333
[Phil] He said he was in front
of the fireplace.
333
00:14:36,100 --> 00:14:38,300
[Heather] I wanna do a call
and response session.
334
00:14:39,667 --> 00:14:42,767
If you think
people actually got physically
attacked in here,
335
00:14:42,767 --> 00:14:43,800
aren't you worried
what happens
336
00:14:43,800 --> 00:14:46,166
if we kick it up a notch?
337
00:14:46,166 --> 00:14:48,200
[Heather] Yeah.
We need to be careful.
338
00:14:48,200 --> 00:14:50,900
I'm thinking I'll lay out
some EMF trip wires.
339
00:14:51,600 --> 00:14:52,533
That way,
we'll see 'em light up
340
00:14:52,533 --> 00:14:54,100
and we'll know
something's heading our way.
341
00:15:00,667 --> 00:15:01,734
Take one end
342
00:15:01,734 --> 00:15:02,734
-and just run it
all the way down.
-[Phil] Okay.
343
00:15:09,767 --> 00:15:10,800
[Heather] Okay.
344
00:15:15,166 --> 00:15:16,867
Here's my spirit box.
345
00:15:16,867 --> 00:15:18,800
What's special
about this one is
346
00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:20,367
is you can use
two different antennas.
347
00:15:20,367 --> 00:15:21,867
I can use myself as a conduit,
348
00:15:21,867 --> 00:15:24,200
or I can use
something metallic.
349
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:25,667
[Phil] And you connect it
to right there?
350
00:15:25,667 --> 00:15:26,667
[Heather] Exactly.
351
00:15:26,667 --> 00:15:30,100
And we have a lot
of metallic objects in here.
352
00:15:30,100 --> 00:15:34,100
So, I wanna see if connecting
this spirit box to a weapon
353
00:15:34,100 --> 00:15:36,467
will actually trigger
John Sage.
354
00:15:36,467 --> 00:15:38,667
[Phil] Okay, let's go for it.
355
00:15:38,667 --> 00:15:40,767
-Pick your sword.
-Ooh.
356
00:15:40,767 --> 00:15:43,233
Well, there's a lot
to choose from.
357
00:15:50,467 --> 00:15:51,700
Okay.
358
00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:54,567
We will essentially
attach this pointy end
right in there?
359
00:15:54,567 --> 00:15:55,900
[Heather] Right there.
360
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:57,900
[static]
361
00:15:57,900 --> 00:15:59,100
My name is Heather.
362
00:16:01,900 --> 00:16:03,033
Phil is here with me.
363
00:16:04,100 --> 00:16:05,900
Is anyone there?
364
00:16:08,800 --> 00:16:10,433
Is John Sage with us?
365
00:16:13,100 --> 00:16:14,834
-[distorted voice speaking]
-Sage.
366
00:16:15,400 --> 00:16:16,800
Did that just say "Sage"?
367
00:16:17,266 --> 00:16:19,100
Sounded like it.
368
00:16:19,100 --> 00:16:21,400
If John Sage is here,
I'm not afraid of you.
369
00:16:22,467 --> 00:16:26,133
I heard that
you killed your wife.
370
00:16:28,066 --> 00:16:29,233
Is that true?
371
00:16:31,200 --> 00:16:32,000
[distorted voice speaking]
372
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:32,667
[both] "Yes."
373
00:16:34,467 --> 00:16:35,900
Why did you kill your wife?
374
00:16:37,400 --> 00:16:38,734
[distorted voice speaking]
375
00:16:40,667 --> 00:16:43,300
Is that why you like
to torture people?
For power?
376
00:16:46,567 --> 00:16:49,000
Did you like causing terror?
377
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,100
-[camera thuds]
-[Heather gasps]
378
00:16:52,100 --> 00:16:53,400
[Phil and Heather] Oh, my God.
379
00:16:58,367 --> 00:16:59,533
[Heather] What was that?
380
00:17:02,367 --> 00:17:03,500
[Phil] Oh, [bleep],
it's a camera.
381
00:17:04,500 --> 00:17:05,300
[Heather] Oh, my God.
382
00:17:05,300 --> 00:17:08,367
[Phil] Your camera.
Holy [bleep].
383
00:17:08,367 --> 00:17:10,800
I'm just trying to figure out
how that could've happened.
384
00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:12,133
I mean, is this...
385
00:17:12,133 --> 00:17:13,900
Is it the tripod
that's broken?
386
00:17:14,467 --> 00:17:15,467
What the...
387
00:17:15,467 --> 00:17:17,266
I mean, it takes a lot
to push this thing over.
388
00:17:17,266 --> 00:17:18,767
It takes a lot of energy.
389
00:17:18,767 --> 00:17:21,233
-There's no wind, no gust.
-[Heather] No.
390
00:17:22,200 --> 00:17:25,266
It took a physical force
to push that camera over.
391
00:17:25,266 --> 00:17:27,967
And that's what
Richard said happened
to that group of people.
392
00:17:27,967 --> 00:17:29,567
They got shoved over.
393
00:17:29,567 --> 00:17:30,734
[Phil] I'll take a camera
getting pushed
394
00:17:30,734 --> 00:17:33,400
-over one of us
getting pushed any day.
-[Heather] Yeah.
395
00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:34,300
[Phil] We gotta check
that footage,
396
00:17:34,300 --> 00:17:36,967
see if anything
was moving around in here.
397
00:17:36,967 --> 00:17:37,900
I don't know
what's going on here,
398
00:17:37,900 --> 00:17:40,300
but it sure does not
make you feel welcome.
399
00:17:40,967 --> 00:17:42,467
On that, we can agree.
400
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,767
With our questions
to John Sage
provoking a response,
401
00:17:49,767 --> 00:17:53,266
we decide to move
to where he inflicted torture
on his many victims.
402
00:17:53,266 --> 00:17:54,700
The castle's dungeon.
403
00:17:54,900 --> 00:17:55,834
[Phil] Okay.
404
00:17:56,000 --> 00:17:57,634
Dungeon.
405
00:17:58,800 --> 00:18:00,066
Look at this place.
406
00:18:00,066 --> 00:18:01,400
[Heather] It's so tight.
407
00:18:05,166 --> 00:18:06,033
[Phil] Whoa.
408
00:18:06,567 --> 00:18:07,667
[Heather] Oh, my God.
409
00:18:07,667 --> 00:18:09,467
-[Phil] Is this what
I think it is?
-[Heather] Yes.
410
00:18:09,467 --> 00:18:11,133
That's the oubliette.
411
00:18:11,500 --> 00:18:12,700
[Phil] Wow.
412
00:18:12,700 --> 00:18:17,333
This is where
they would've thrown prisoners
to just die.
413
00:18:18,100 --> 00:18:20,333
-Does this thing lift?
-It's not nailed down.
414
00:18:21,900 --> 00:18:22,800
[Phil grunts softly]
415
00:18:25,467 --> 00:18:27,500
Wow! Look at that.
416
00:18:28,667 --> 00:18:30,700
Heather, there's a whole room
down there.
417
00:18:32,767 --> 00:18:35,600
[Heather] This is where
countless people died.
418
00:18:35,600 --> 00:18:37,266
That residual energy,
419
00:18:37,266 --> 00:18:40,066
that blood seeped
into the soil...
420
00:18:40,066 --> 00:18:41,767
We gotta get down there.
421
00:18:41,767 --> 00:18:43,166
Oh, I think I have some gear
in the kit
422
00:18:43,166 --> 00:18:44,567
that can get us down there.
423
00:18:44,567 --> 00:18:45,567
-Let's grab it.
-Let's do it.
424
00:18:56,667 --> 00:18:58,900
[Heather] Seriously,
be careful climbing down.
425
00:18:58,900 --> 00:19:00,066
[Phil] All right.
426
00:19:01,500 --> 00:19:03,166
Try and squeeze
in here, Heather.
427
00:19:03,166 --> 00:19:05,333
-[Heather] Yeah,
it looks like you barely fit.
-[Phil] Ooh.
428
00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:06,767
Wow.
429
00:19:06,767 --> 00:19:08,166
[Heather] What are you seeing?
430
00:19:08,166 --> 00:19:10,000
[Phil] It's a lot bigger
than we thought it was.
431
00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:21,400
Look at this place, Heather.
432
00:19:21,400 --> 00:19:25,500
[Heather] Just being in here
is making my stomach turn.
433
00:19:25,500 --> 00:19:26,900
-[Phil] You know what
I just realized?
-[Heather] What?
434
00:19:27,700 --> 00:19:32,000
[Phil] This is the first bit
of actual solid earth
435
00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,700
we've seen
in this entire castle.
436
00:19:33,700 --> 00:19:37,100
This may be the only place
we can actually dig.
437
00:19:37,100 --> 00:19:39,567
-You wanna dig?
-I wanna dig.
438
00:19:39,567 --> 00:19:41,600
You don't know
what you'd be disturbing.
439
00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:45,300
Hundreds,
if not thousands of people
died in this very room.
440
00:19:45,767 --> 00:19:47,166
[Phil] I think it's worth it
441
00:19:47,166 --> 00:19:50,000
If we can find some clues
that tell us what happened
down here.
442
00:19:50,567 --> 00:19:52,133
-All right.
-Okay.
443
00:19:53,567 --> 00:19:54,700
[Phil sighs]
444
00:19:57,467 --> 00:19:59,100
Okay, grab a shovel.
445
00:19:59,100 --> 00:20:01,066
-Let's do some digging.
-All right.
446
00:20:01,066 --> 00:20:04,467
-[Phil] So, you see this
area over there?
-[Heather] Yeah.
447
00:20:04,467 --> 00:20:07,600
I'm wondering
if that is some sort
of drainage channel.
448
00:20:07,600 --> 00:20:09,467
So, artifacts,
any organic matter,
449
00:20:09,467 --> 00:20:12,567
anything that could've fallen
into this pit
450
00:20:12,567 --> 00:20:16,266
would've moved
in that direction down here.
451
00:20:16,266 --> 00:20:17,834
[shovel clanging]
452
00:20:21,166 --> 00:20:23,600
I feel like I'm making
some progress here.
453
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:25,000
There, look. Look, look.
454
00:20:25,767 --> 00:20:27,200
Different colored earth
down here.
455
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,200
The deeper we dig,
456
00:20:29,200 --> 00:20:31,367
the further back in time
we go.
457
00:20:31,367 --> 00:20:32,300
[Heather] Wait, wait,
what's that?
458
00:20:32,300 --> 00:20:33,367
-Can you see that white?
-[Phil] Right there?
459
00:20:33,367 --> 00:20:35,000
-[Heather] Yeah.
-[Phil] Yeah, what is that?
460
00:20:36,567 --> 00:20:38,100
Oh, [bleep].
461
00:20:38,100 --> 00:20:40,166
-Oh. Look, look, look, look.
-What, what, what, what, what?
462
00:20:40,166 --> 00:20:41,867
[Phil] Holy [bleep],
look at that.
463
00:20:41,867 --> 00:20:43,000
[Heather] Oh, my God.
464
00:20:43,266 --> 00:20:45,100
That's a bone.
465
00:20:45,100 --> 00:20:45,800
[Phil] That is a bone.
466
00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:47,166
[Heather] Is that a rib bone?
467
00:20:47,166 --> 00:20:48,300
[Phil] That looks like
a rib bone.
468
00:20:48,767 --> 00:20:49,834
Think it's human?
469
00:20:50,767 --> 00:20:52,300
I can't say for sure.
470
00:20:52,800 --> 00:20:54,233
But look at that.
471
00:20:55,266 --> 00:20:57,400
I mean, you can see
the marrow on that side.
472
00:20:58,200 --> 00:20:59,800
This could have been a person
473
00:21:00,367 --> 00:21:03,667
who faced a horrible death.
474
00:21:03,667 --> 00:21:05,767
We need to put it back
exactly where we found it
475
00:21:05,767 --> 00:21:07,033
and treat it with respect.
476
00:21:07,367 --> 00:21:08,133
[Phil] Mm-hmm.
477
00:21:08,133 --> 00:21:09,100
We'll let
the right people know,
478
00:21:09,100 --> 00:21:10,266
and they can
investigate it further.
479
00:21:10,266 --> 00:21:11,867
Yeah. Agreed.
480
00:21:11,867 --> 00:21:13,266
I'm going to take
some photos of this...
481
00:21:13,266 --> 00:21:15,567
-[camera shutter clicks]
-[Phil] ...and then get this
back in there.
482
00:21:15,567 --> 00:21:16,400
[Heather] Okay.
483
00:21:17,867 --> 00:21:19,200
After taking pictures
of the bone
484
00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:21,166
and returning it
to its resting place...
485
00:21:21,166 --> 00:21:22,800
[Phil] The dirt will help
preserve it.
486
00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:23,700
[Heather] Okay.
487
00:21:23,700 --> 00:21:25,266
...I pull out my Ovilus,
488
00:21:25,266 --> 00:21:26,467
reaching out to anyone
489
00:21:26,467 --> 00:21:27,934
who might have died
in the oubliette.
490
00:21:31,567 --> 00:21:32,900
My name's Heather.
491
00:21:33,767 --> 00:21:35,834
Is anyone with us
in this room?
492
00:21:36,467 --> 00:21:38,000
[disembodied voice speaking]
493
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,166
[Heather] Oh, my God.
494
00:21:39,166 --> 00:21:40,000
Speak to us.
495
00:21:40,000 --> 00:21:41,400
We're here to talk to you.
496
00:21:41,800 --> 00:21:42,934
Did you die here?
497
00:21:47,100 --> 00:21:47,867
[disembodied voice speaking]
498
00:21:47,867 --> 00:21:49,266
"Body." Body.
499
00:21:49,266 --> 00:21:50,600
I mean, that could--
500
00:21:50,600 --> 00:21:52,033
That could be the body
that we found.
501
00:21:53,367 --> 00:21:54,300
[disembodied voice speaking]
502
00:21:54,667 --> 00:21:56,367
"Priest."
503
00:21:56,367 --> 00:21:59,367
Maybe they were
asking for a priest
504
00:21:59,367 --> 00:22:00,400
in their dying moments.
505
00:22:00,400 --> 00:22:01,533
So someone pleading
506
00:22:01,533 --> 00:22:03,667
for their last rites
to be read to them,
essentially?
507
00:22:03,667 --> 00:22:04,800
Yes. People believed
508
00:22:04,800 --> 00:22:06,400
if you didn't have
a proper burial,
509
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:07,800
you wouldn't go on
to the afterlife.
510
00:22:07,800 --> 00:22:09,400
They would be trapped here.
511
00:22:09,767 --> 00:22:13,300
[eerie music playing]
512
00:22:14,266 --> 00:22:15,600
[Heather] Phil
and I head upstairs
513
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:16,667
to the castle bedrooms,
514
00:22:16,667 --> 00:22:19,300
but our night's investigation
is far from over.
515
00:22:19,300 --> 00:22:20,900
-[Phil] Okay.
-While Phil will be staying
516
00:22:20,900 --> 00:22:22,667
in the infamous
King Edward room,
517
00:22:22,667 --> 00:22:24,166
I'll be taking the pink room,
518
00:22:24,166 --> 00:22:26,500
which Richard claims is
the most haunted bedroom
519
00:22:26,500 --> 00:22:27,567
in the castle,
520
00:22:27,567 --> 00:22:29,100
for a ghastly reason.
521
00:22:29,100 --> 00:22:31,066
In 1920,
522
00:22:31,066 --> 00:22:33,066
workmen were breaking
through the wall.
523
00:22:33,066 --> 00:22:36,000
They came across
the bones of a child.
524
00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,367
People staying
in the room are woken up
525
00:22:38,367 --> 00:22:39,700
in the middle of the night
526
00:22:39,700 --> 00:22:43,400
by a child
with a blue aura around him.
527
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:44,333
[Heather] In case
the boy's spirit wants
528
00:22:44,333 --> 00:22:46,367
to make his presence known
while I sleep,
529
00:22:46,367 --> 00:22:49,767
I set up several
toy-like trigger objects
around me.
530
00:22:49,767 --> 00:22:52,000
A motion-detecting music box
and cat balls,
531
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:53,800
which will light up
if touched.
532
00:22:54,166 --> 00:22:55,433
Toss them on this bed.
533
00:22:58,767 --> 00:23:02,767
Okay, Heather,
I'm ready to pass out.
534
00:23:02,767 --> 00:23:04,133
Holler if you need me.
535
00:23:05,400 --> 00:23:06,834
Yeah, will do.
536
00:23:08,100 --> 00:23:10,100
[Phil exhales]
537
00:23:15,300 --> 00:23:16,533
[Heather] Now you can see
538
00:23:17,066 --> 00:23:18,467
when I roll over,
539
00:23:18,467 --> 00:23:21,700
that music box does
not go off.
540
00:23:22,567 --> 00:23:24,266
Got the sensor pointing out,
541
00:23:24,266 --> 00:23:26,066
so it will only go off
542
00:23:26,066 --> 00:23:28,233
if there's movement
in the other direction.
543
00:23:29,066 --> 00:23:30,300
[exhales]
544
00:23:36,400 --> 00:23:38,533
Is there anyone here
in the room with me?
545
00:23:41,266 --> 00:23:43,000
If there's anyone here,
546
00:23:44,000 --> 00:23:46,500
can you light up one
of the ghost balls
547
00:23:46,500 --> 00:23:48,100
or play the music box?
548
00:23:50,967 --> 00:23:53,667
-[music box playing]
-[gasps]
549
00:23:53,667 --> 00:23:56,567
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
550
00:23:56,567 --> 00:23:57,467
[music box continues playing]
551
00:23:57,467 --> 00:23:58,800
[Heather whimpers]
552
00:24:00,600 --> 00:24:02,233
[breath shuddering]
553
00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:03,867
Are you the little boy
554
00:24:03,867 --> 00:24:05,900
whose skeleton was found
in this room?
555
00:24:06,900 --> 00:24:08,467
-[music box playing]
-[gasps]
556
00:24:08,467 --> 00:24:10,700
[bleep] my life.
[bleep] my life.
557
00:24:13,166 --> 00:24:13,934
Phil, get over here.
558
00:24:16,867 --> 00:24:19,266
There's crazy activity
going on.
559
00:24:19,266 --> 00:24:21,100
[Phil] Okay. Okay. I'm coming.
560
00:24:21,100 --> 00:24:24,600
[tense music playing]
561
00:24:26,166 --> 00:24:28,200
[eerie music playing]
562
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,333
[Heather whimpers]
563
00:24:32,867 --> 00:24:34,200
[tense music playing]
564
00:24:34,767 --> 00:24:35,700
[Phil] Heather?
565
00:24:39,600 --> 00:24:41,567
Heather, what's going on?
What's going on?
566
00:24:41,567 --> 00:24:42,233
Oh, my God.
567
00:24:42,233 --> 00:24:43,867
The music box was going off.
568
00:24:43,867 --> 00:24:45,266
The ghost balls were
going off.
569
00:24:45,266 --> 00:24:47,100
And right when I called you,
570
00:24:47,100 --> 00:24:48,900
everything stopped.
571
00:24:48,900 --> 00:24:50,667
You were telling me
that this place was lit up,
572
00:24:50,667 --> 00:24:51,667
and it just stopped?
573
00:24:51,667 --> 00:24:52,567
Yes.
574
00:24:52,567 --> 00:24:53,900
It's [bleep] crazy.
575
00:24:54,166 --> 00:24:55,400
I was just in bed.
576
00:24:56,100 --> 00:24:58,100
And see, like, I'm moving now,
577
00:24:58,700 --> 00:25:00,200
and that's not going off.
578
00:25:01,200 --> 00:25:02,700
-[beeps]
-That's how close
you have to be.
579
00:25:02,700 --> 00:25:04,367
[Phil] Are you kidding me?
580
00:25:04,367 --> 00:25:07,100
No. And it was non-stop.
581
00:25:07,100 --> 00:25:08,400
[Phil] So you think...
582
00:25:09,500 --> 00:25:10,400
you were visited?
583
00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:11,367
I don't think. I know.
584
00:25:11,367 --> 00:25:12,500
[Phil] Okay.
585
00:25:12,500 --> 00:25:14,367
I mean, at this point,
586
00:25:14,367 --> 00:25:16,300
I think I'm just going
to stay up until morning.
587
00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:18,467
[Phil] We still have
a lot more investigating
588
00:25:18,467 --> 00:25:19,400
to do tomorrow,
589
00:25:19,400 --> 00:25:22,667
so try and get some sleep.
590
00:25:22,667 --> 00:25:24,200
[Heather] I'll call you
if I need to.
591
00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:25,100
[Phil] Okay.
592
00:25:27,166 --> 00:25:28,300
[door closes]
593
00:25:29,667 --> 00:25:30,667
[Heather] [bleep].
594
00:25:30,667 --> 00:25:33,000
[quivering] I'm freaking out.
595
00:25:45,266 --> 00:25:46,066
[Heather exhales]
596
00:25:46,066 --> 00:25:48,033
[tense music playing]
597
00:25:50,567 --> 00:25:52,667
[Heather] After
a mostly sleepless night,
598
00:25:52,667 --> 00:25:54,066
we decide to broaden
our search
599
00:25:54,066 --> 00:25:55,467
beyond Chillingham's walls
600
00:25:55,467 --> 00:25:57,700
to its 150 acres of grounds.
601
00:25:58,567 --> 00:25:59,900
[engine starts]
602
00:26:00,667 --> 00:26:02,166
[Heather] And to get
to where we're going,
603
00:26:02,166 --> 00:26:03,600
we need a little help.
604
00:26:15,767 --> 00:26:16,634
All right. I'm going
to go meet
605
00:26:16,634 --> 00:26:18,800
-another witness
in the forest.
-Okay.
606
00:26:18,800 --> 00:26:20,033
And I've identified an area
607
00:26:20,033 --> 00:26:22,467
where I might be able to find
the evidence I'm looking for.
608
00:26:22,467 --> 00:26:24,133
-All right. Have fun.
-You too.
609
00:26:29,667 --> 00:26:31,000
[Heather] My witness has
asked to meet me
610
00:26:31,000 --> 00:26:33,300
at a very specific location,
611
00:26:33,300 --> 00:26:35,000
a thick grove of tangled trees
612
00:26:35,000 --> 00:26:37,600
on the southern end
of the castle grounds.
613
00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,000
-Mark.
-[Mark] Hi, Heather.
614
00:26:39,000 --> 00:26:40,467
Thanks so much
for meeting with me.
615
00:26:40,467 --> 00:26:43,100
Mark Trotter is
a former police officer
616
00:26:43,100 --> 00:26:45,867
who now gives tours
on Chillingham's history.
617
00:26:45,867 --> 00:26:48,367
He's had
several strange encounters
on its grounds
618
00:26:48,367 --> 00:26:49,667
that he can't explain.
619
00:26:49,667 --> 00:26:51,700
Why did you want
to meet me here?
620
00:26:51,700 --> 00:26:53,667
This is one of the most
haunted places
621
00:26:53,667 --> 00:26:55,467
in the grounds
of Chillingham Castle.
622
00:26:55,467 --> 00:26:56,967
I think it's all to do
with all the battles
623
00:26:56,967 --> 00:26:58,200
that have been here.
624
00:26:58,200 --> 00:27:01,767
This field behind us was where
most of the battles took place
625
00:27:01,767 --> 00:27:03,467
back in the medieval period.
626
00:27:03,467 --> 00:27:05,767
This was the best way
to attack the castle.
627
00:27:05,767 --> 00:27:07,667
And of course,
you have to remember also
628
00:27:07,667 --> 00:27:09,600
that all these trees would
be used
629
00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:11,600
to hang Scottish prisoners.
630
00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:13,000
Hang people?
631
00:27:13,000 --> 00:27:14,166
[man grunts]
632
00:27:14,166 --> 00:27:15,700
[Mark] Yes,
and the other thing,
633
00:27:15,700 --> 00:27:17,600
they never used
to cut them down,
634
00:27:18,100 --> 00:27:19,100
because they believed
635
00:27:19,100 --> 00:27:21,100
that if they didn't get
a Christian burial,
636
00:27:21,100 --> 00:27:23,600
then their soul would wander
the earth for eternity.
637
00:27:25,567 --> 00:27:28,567
So they would allow them
to rot and drop to the ground.
638
00:27:28,567 --> 00:27:29,400
We've had heavy rainfalls
639
00:27:29,400 --> 00:27:31,000
and little bits of bone have
come up
640
00:27:31,000 --> 00:27:33,100
of people who've just been
left where they've fallen.
641
00:27:33,100 --> 00:27:35,000
There could be bones lying
in the ground
642
00:27:35,000 --> 00:27:36,100
right there behind me.
643
00:27:36,100 --> 00:27:37,467
Absolutely.
644
00:27:37,467 --> 00:27:38,867
And also, you know,
645
00:27:38,867 --> 00:27:41,233
we talk at great length
about the medieval period.
646
00:27:41,900 --> 00:27:43,400
[Mark speaking]
647
00:27:47,700 --> 00:27:49,266
So the history
and the violence goes back
648
00:27:49,266 --> 00:27:51,700
much further
than the medieval period.
649
00:27:51,700 --> 00:27:54,300
People have lived
and died here for 6,000 years.
650
00:27:55,467 --> 00:27:58,000
[Phil] I've decided to search
the castle's perimeter,
651
00:27:58,000 --> 00:27:59,767
just outside
its defensive walls,
652
00:27:59,767 --> 00:28:02,767
where many battles
reportedly took place.
653
00:28:02,767 --> 00:28:05,000
Armed with
my trusty metal detector,
654
00:28:05,000 --> 00:28:06,467
I'm hoping to find relics
655
00:28:06,467 --> 00:28:08,567
that confirm
Chillingham's dark history.
656
00:28:08,567 --> 00:28:09,700
[metal detector chirps]
657
00:28:09,700 --> 00:28:11,233
Okay, might have got
something here.
658
00:28:12,667 --> 00:28:14,033
Let's see.
659
00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:18,967
Okay, okay, what have we got?
660
00:28:18,967 --> 00:28:22,100
[tense music playing]
661
00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:25,367
Okay.
662
00:28:25,367 --> 00:28:27,333
Yeah, looks like
a square nail.
663
00:28:30,266 --> 00:28:31,200
It's old.
664
00:28:31,200 --> 00:28:32,400
But does it indicate violence?
665
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:33,500
Not necessarily.
666
00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,033
Let's keep looking.
667
00:28:36,900 --> 00:28:38,467
[Heather] So what about
this area right here?
668
00:28:38,467 --> 00:28:40,800
Has there been any activity
in this area?
669
00:28:40,800 --> 00:28:43,734
People have seen
shadowy images,
670
00:28:44,367 --> 00:28:45,500
figures even.
671
00:28:46,266 --> 00:28:48,000
People have heard things.
672
00:28:48,667 --> 00:28:50,567
I did a tour one evening,
673
00:28:50,567 --> 00:28:52,233
and there was
a gentleman stood next to me.
674
00:28:52,700 --> 00:28:53,600
We're in the pitch dark.
675
00:28:53,600 --> 00:28:56,166
All of a sudden,
he just took off running
676
00:28:56,166 --> 00:28:57,166
into the darkness,
677
00:28:57,166 --> 00:29:00,200
and he ran into a tree
and knocked himself out.
678
00:29:01,567 --> 00:29:03,467
He ran head first into a tree?
679
00:29:03,467 --> 00:29:04,066
He did.
680
00:29:05,667 --> 00:29:06,567
And when he came around,
681
00:29:06,567 --> 00:29:08,800
I've never seen
anyone so frightened.
682
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,667
He told me
that he'd heard a voice
683
00:29:10,667 --> 00:29:12,900
in his ear saying, "Hello".
684
00:29:12,900 --> 00:29:14,166
Did anyone else hear it?
685
00:29:14,166 --> 00:29:16,266
No, no. Nobody else heard it,
just him.
686
00:29:16,266 --> 00:29:17,867
I was stood right next to him.
687
00:29:17,867 --> 00:29:19,033
I never heard a thing.
688
00:29:19,033 --> 00:29:21,967
So someone or something is
trying to get your attention.
689
00:29:21,967 --> 00:29:24,367
That's it. They are trying
to get your attention.
690
00:29:24,367 --> 00:29:26,066
When I first came
to Chillingham,
691
00:29:26,066 --> 00:29:29,900
I wasn't interested
in spirits or ghosts.
692
00:29:29,900 --> 00:29:31,967
I thought it was
a load of rubbish.
693
00:29:31,967 --> 00:29:34,200
But since then,
I've been here for nine years.
694
00:29:34,200 --> 00:29:35,567
I've had
an awful lot of experiences
695
00:29:35,567 --> 00:29:36,934
in these grounds.
696
00:29:37,367 --> 00:29:39,100
There's no doubt in my mind
697
00:29:39,100 --> 00:29:41,000
that spirits are amongst us.
698
00:29:42,300 --> 00:29:44,166
So Chillingham made you
a believer?
699
00:29:44,166 --> 00:29:45,400
Absolutely.
700
00:29:56,100 --> 00:29:57,300
-[Phil] Oh. Oh.
-[metal detector beeping]
701
00:29:57,600 --> 00:29:58,500
[loud beeping]
702
00:29:58,500 --> 00:29:59,700
[Phil] That's a big hit.
703
00:30:05,066 --> 00:30:06,800
Gotta keep going deeper.
704
00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:12,100
Holy, [bleep]. Look at this!
705
00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:14,100
We got something!
706
00:30:16,867 --> 00:30:17,900
Wow.
707
00:30:18,367 --> 00:30:19,734
Look at that!
708
00:30:20,667 --> 00:30:22,000
It's heavy.
709
00:30:22,000 --> 00:30:23,867
This feels like it might be
made out of lead.
710
00:30:23,867 --> 00:30:24,634
And look at the way
711
00:30:24,634 --> 00:30:28,367
the metal is folded over
on itself.
712
00:30:28,367 --> 00:30:31,667
I don't know exactly
what this is,
713
00:30:31,667 --> 00:30:34,433
but it is very unusual.
714
00:30:41,600 --> 00:30:43,867
[Phil]
With a potentially significant
archaeological find
715
00:30:43,867 --> 00:30:45,100
on my hands,
716
00:30:45,100 --> 00:30:47,400
I snap pictures
to send to Josh,
717
00:30:47,400 --> 00:30:48,533
hoping he can identify
718
00:30:48,533 --> 00:30:50,734
-exactly what this object is.
-[camera shutter clicks]
719
00:30:55,000 --> 00:30:56,367
[Heather] As night falls,
720
00:30:56,367 --> 00:30:58,400
Phil and I head
to the hanging trees,
721
00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:00,667
purported to be
the most haunted location
722
00:31:00,667 --> 00:31:01,867
on the castle grounds.
723
00:31:01,867 --> 00:31:03,967
-So this is it.
-[Phil] Wow.
724
00:31:03,967 --> 00:31:05,967
Look at these trees.
725
00:31:05,967 --> 00:31:07,400
[Heather] Remember
that picture from HQ?
726
00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,500
-Yeah, of that
floating knight figure?
-Yeah.
727
00:31:11,767 --> 00:31:13,467
-[Phil] That was taken here?
-It was taken
right here. Yeah.
728
00:31:13,467 --> 00:31:14,600
[Phil] Okay. I've been
wanting to find
729
00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:15,333
where that picture was taken,
730
00:31:15,333 --> 00:31:17,400
because I actually have
an idea
731
00:31:17,400 --> 00:31:19,367
on how I might debunk it.
732
00:31:19,367 --> 00:31:20,967
Oh, yeah?
What are you thinking?
733
00:31:20,967 --> 00:31:22,367
I mean, look
at our breath right now.
734
00:31:22,367 --> 00:31:25,033
[inhales and exhales]
735
00:31:25,567 --> 00:31:26,400
From this angle,
736
00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:27,967
it already looks like
we're creating
737
00:31:27,967 --> 00:31:29,300
a bit of a vertical figure
738
00:31:29,300 --> 00:31:30,467
in that mist.
739
00:31:30,467 --> 00:31:31,767
I'm going to try to do
an experiment
740
00:31:31,767 --> 00:31:33,000
that kicks this up a notch.
741
00:31:33,000 --> 00:31:33,800
Okay.
742
00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:35,600
While you're doing
your experiment,
743
00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:38,033
-I want to pull out the SLS.
-Okay.
744
00:31:40,200 --> 00:31:41,367
So here's my plan.
745
00:31:41,367 --> 00:31:43,100
I have this.
746
00:31:43,100 --> 00:31:46,667
It is
a handheld smoke machine.
747
00:31:46,667 --> 00:31:48,300
And I have a bright light,
748
00:31:48,300 --> 00:31:50,367
and I have
a cell phone camera.
749
00:31:50,367 --> 00:31:53,100
My hope is that if I combine
the three of these,
750
00:31:53,100 --> 00:31:55,533
I can create my own ghost.
751
00:31:56,166 --> 00:31:57,333
Let's try it.
752
00:31:59,367 --> 00:32:00,467
So the idea here is
753
00:32:00,467 --> 00:32:03,000
to let the wind take
this smoke
754
00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:07,166
to try to get the mist to give
some sort of pattern.
755
00:32:07,166 --> 00:32:08,133
[camera shutter clicks]
756
00:32:09,000 --> 00:32:09,934
[camera shutter clicks]
757
00:32:11,100 --> 00:32:11,867
[camera shutter clicks]
758
00:32:11,867 --> 00:32:13,166
[Phil] Look at that.
759
00:32:16,066 --> 00:32:17,500
[Heather] Knowing
that these exact trees were
760
00:32:17,500 --> 00:32:20,100
used to hang
hundreds of people,
761
00:32:20,100 --> 00:32:22,767
I'll be using the SLS to scan
for any spirits
762
00:32:22,767 --> 00:32:25,367
that may be present
in the hanging trees.
763
00:32:25,367 --> 00:32:27,333
Just scanning this tree.
764
00:32:31,567 --> 00:32:32,700
Okay.
765
00:32:34,800 --> 00:32:36,600
If there's anyone
here with us,
766
00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:39,500
you can use this SLS
to show up.
767
00:32:41,367 --> 00:32:43,800
There has to be
residual energy here.
768
00:32:47,667 --> 00:32:49,433
So far, I don't have anything.
769
00:32:52,667 --> 00:32:53,900
[Phil] Here's the original.
770
00:32:54,500 --> 00:32:55,400
There.
771
00:32:56,100 --> 00:32:58,433
And here are my photos.
772
00:33:00,667 --> 00:33:01,934
Okay.
773
00:33:02,867 --> 00:33:04,300
Not quite.
774
00:33:06,967 --> 00:33:09,000
I mean, it's not
an exact match,
775
00:33:09,000 --> 00:33:10,233
but it's definitely
in the same ballpark.
776
00:33:10,233 --> 00:33:14,166
And keep in mind, I was using
a tiny handheld fog machine.
777
00:33:14,166 --> 00:33:18,500
So this place has
a truly terrifying history.
778
00:33:18,500 --> 00:33:22,700
I just don't think
this image is a part of it.
779
00:33:26,667 --> 00:33:29,333
[Heather] It seems
so quiet in here.
780
00:33:30,166 --> 00:33:31,900
Is there anyone here with me?
781
00:33:34,667 --> 00:33:36,400
-[dramatic music playing]
-[Heather] Oh, my God!
782
00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:37,300
Phil!
783
00:33:37,700 --> 00:33:38,667
[Phil] Heather?
784
00:33:38,667 --> 00:33:40,400
-Get over here right now.
-What's going on?
785
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:41,900
[Heather] There's a body.
786
00:33:41,900 --> 00:33:44,266
A body is in the tree.
787
00:33:44,266 --> 00:33:45,900
[Phil] Oh, my God.
788
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:47,266
That literally looks like
789
00:33:47,266 --> 00:33:48,800
there's a person swinging
right there.
790
00:33:48,800 --> 00:33:49,500
[Heather] Yeah.
791
00:33:49,500 --> 00:33:51,000
[Phil] Right from that branch.
792
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,166
-[Heather] Right there.
-Oh, God, the way it's moving.
793
00:33:53,166 --> 00:33:55,100
It keeps grabbing
for the neck.
794
00:33:55,100 --> 00:33:56,600
Like it's in agony.
795
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,567
[Heather] Yeah, it does.
796
00:33:58,567 --> 00:34:00,700
It looks-- [gasps] It's gone.
797
00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:04,467
I mean, the SLS has been known
to get false positives
798
00:34:04,467 --> 00:34:07,567
when there's a lot
of vertical lines
799
00:34:07,567 --> 00:34:08,400
in front of it.
800
00:34:08,400 --> 00:34:11,533
But these are
twisted tree branches.
801
00:34:13,300 --> 00:34:16,300
[Brian speaking over radio]
802
00:34:17,400 --> 00:34:19,300
Okay, we're heading there now.
Let's go.
803
00:34:28,166 --> 00:34:29,467
[Phil] What happened?
804
00:34:29,467 --> 00:34:30,634
You will not believe this.
805
00:34:30,634 --> 00:34:34,266
This is the King Edward room,
which you know very well.
806
00:34:34,266 --> 00:34:35,600
[Phil] Oh, yes, I do.
807
00:34:35,600 --> 00:34:37,266
[Brian] Everything's still,
nothing moving.
808
00:34:37,266 --> 00:34:38,467
I've been watching this thing.
809
00:34:38,467 --> 00:34:40,266
And look there.
810
00:34:40,266 --> 00:34:41,400
Watch that sword.
811
00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:43,967
[dramatic music playing]
812
00:34:43,967 --> 00:34:45,133
[both exclaiming]
813
00:34:50,700 --> 00:34:52,800
Chillingham's
most famous investigator,
814
00:34:52,800 --> 00:34:55,100
Aleister Crowley,
led a unique life,
815
00:34:55,100 --> 00:34:56,500
to say the least.
816
00:34:56,500 --> 00:34:57,967
Born to immense wealth,
817
00:34:57,967 --> 00:35:01,367
Crowley gave up privilege
to pursue the paranormal.
818
00:35:01,367 --> 00:35:03,467
He became obsessed
with the occult,
819
00:35:03,467 --> 00:35:05,200
developing his own religion,
820
00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,300
fusing esoteric rituals,
821
00:35:07,300 --> 00:35:08,867
magic, and meditation
822
00:35:08,867 --> 00:35:11,500
with a healthy dose
of sexuality,
823
00:35:11,500 --> 00:35:13,467
not to mention
a healthy dose of drugs.
824
00:35:13,467 --> 00:35:15,500
Despite his eccentric beliefs,
825
00:35:15,500 --> 00:35:18,567
the British government
allegedly hired him as a spy.
826
00:35:18,567 --> 00:35:21,867
After the Allies captured
Hitler's deputy, Rudolf Hess,
827
00:35:21,867 --> 00:35:23,367
in 1941,
828
00:35:23,367 --> 00:35:25,266
the government reportedly
considered
829
00:35:25,266 --> 00:35:27,467
having Crowley
interrogate Hess
830
00:35:27,467 --> 00:35:29,000
due
to their shared fascination
831
00:35:29,000 --> 00:35:30,567
with the occult.
832
00:35:30,567 --> 00:35:32,266
Crowley is even said
to have partnered
833
00:35:32,266 --> 00:35:34,467
with British
intelligence operative
Ian Fleming
834
00:35:34,467 --> 00:35:36,266
of James Bond fame.
835
00:35:36,266 --> 00:35:39,066
But unlike 007
and his martini,
836
00:35:39,066 --> 00:35:40,266
Crowley's drink of choice was
837
00:35:40,266 --> 00:35:42,800
one of the strongest spirits
in the world,
838
00:35:42,800 --> 00:35:43,700
Absinthe.
839
00:35:43,700 --> 00:35:44,834
Cheers, Aleister.
840
00:35:46,367 --> 00:35:47,900
[hoarsely] Oh, it's so smooth.
841
00:35:53,467 --> 00:35:54,767
That sword moved!
842
00:35:54,767 --> 00:35:56,367
Oh, my God.
843
00:35:56,367 --> 00:35:57,500
Let me see that again.
844
00:35:57,500 --> 00:35:58,300
[Brian] Okay.
845
00:36:00,567 --> 00:36:02,367
Ooh, it looks like
someone's trying
846
00:36:02,367 --> 00:36:03,767
-to get it off of the wall.
-It does.
847
00:36:03,767 --> 00:36:06,767
And that wasn't just
the camera moving at all?
848
00:36:06,767 --> 00:36:08,667
Sometimes it can
kind of pixelate
849
00:36:08,667 --> 00:36:10,100
-and make an object look
like it's moving.
-No.
850
00:36:10,100 --> 00:36:11,734
The rest of the room
didn't move, Phil.
851
00:36:12,200 --> 00:36:13,667
Yeah, that's a good point.
852
00:36:13,667 --> 00:36:15,066
When did this happen?
853
00:36:15,066 --> 00:36:17,200
Like, five, 10 minutes ago,
right before I called you.
854
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:19,600
That's about the time
that the SLS went off.
855
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:20,600
Yes.
856
00:36:20,600 --> 00:36:21,700
We got to get up there.
857
00:36:21,700 --> 00:36:22,967
[Phil] Let's go.
858
00:36:22,967 --> 00:36:25,600
[tense music playing]
859
00:36:31,567 --> 00:36:32,533
[Phil] So...
860
00:36:33,867 --> 00:36:35,266
it was this one, yeah?
861
00:36:35,266 --> 00:36:36,300
[Heather] Yeah.
862
00:36:36,767 --> 00:36:39,934
[Phil] How... did that move?
863
00:36:40,667 --> 00:36:42,867
So it's being held up
by one nail here,
864
00:36:42,867 --> 00:36:44,200
one nail there.
865
00:36:44,867 --> 00:36:48,000
Like, that takes a lot
of force to move this thing.
866
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:50,800
I cannot see how it would move
on its own accord.
867
00:36:51,166 --> 00:36:52,767
I've got an idea.
868
00:36:52,767 --> 00:36:54,834
It's something
we haven't used before.
869
00:36:55,467 --> 00:36:56,467
Wait here.
870
00:36:56,467 --> 00:36:58,800
Since we were drawn
to the King Edward Room
871
00:36:58,800 --> 00:37:00,667
by an historic artifact,
872
00:37:00,667 --> 00:37:02,166
I want to use
a paranormal device
873
00:37:02,166 --> 00:37:05,200
specifically designed to scan
trigger objects.
874
00:37:05,200 --> 00:37:08,467
The TDT can also detect
environmental anomalies
875
00:37:08,467 --> 00:37:11,400
and can translate
EMF disturbances into words.
876
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:14,800
What I want to do is try
and scan the sword
877
00:37:14,800 --> 00:37:15,567
and this room in general
878
00:37:15,567 --> 00:37:17,367
and just see if we get
any hits.
879
00:37:17,367 --> 00:37:18,233
Yeah.
880
00:37:19,700 --> 00:37:21,000
My name is Heather.
881
00:37:21,000 --> 00:37:22,033
I'm here with Phil.
882
00:37:24,667 --> 00:37:26,700
Is there anyone here with us?
883
00:37:30,667 --> 00:37:32,300
Why did you want this sword?
884
00:37:40,000 --> 00:37:41,100
[disembodied voice speaking]
885
00:37:41,100 --> 00:37:42,233
Blood?
886
00:37:45,200 --> 00:37:46,667
Isn't the other name
for this room
887
00:37:46,667 --> 00:37:47,867
the Killing Room?
888
00:37:47,867 --> 00:37:49,567
Based off what John Sage did.
889
00:37:49,567 --> 00:37:51,600
Yeah. Did you die here?
890
00:37:53,000 --> 00:37:53,934
[disembodied voice speaking]
891
00:37:54,867 --> 00:37:56,100
[Phil] Windows?
892
00:37:56,100 --> 00:37:57,300
What does that mean?
893
00:37:58,100 --> 00:38:01,000
John Sage made
all of those children watch
894
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:04,133
as their parents were
burned alive outside.
895
00:38:04,800 --> 00:38:06,000
Through the window?
896
00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:07,166
Through the window.
897
00:38:07,166 --> 00:38:08,367
That window?
898
00:38:08,367 --> 00:38:09,467
[Heather] I don't know.
899
00:38:09,467 --> 00:38:10,700
[Phil] It's gotta be.
900
00:38:14,066 --> 00:38:15,066
[disembodied voice speaking]
901
00:38:15,066 --> 00:38:16,233
It just said torture.
902
00:38:16,767 --> 00:38:18,367
That was
John Sage's specialty?
903
00:38:18,367 --> 00:38:19,033
Yes.
904
00:38:19,667 --> 00:38:20,767
[Phil] You think he's here?
905
00:38:20,767 --> 00:38:23,934
You think he's the one
who tried to grab that sword,
906
00:38:24,300 --> 00:38:25,500
finish what he started?
907
00:38:25,500 --> 00:38:27,100
John Sage, are you here?
908
00:38:30,367 --> 00:38:33,133
If you are here,
we're not afraid of you.
909
00:38:34,166 --> 00:38:36,033
You have no power here.
910
00:38:37,166 --> 00:38:40,400
We will not forget
the torture that you did.
911
00:38:40,400 --> 00:38:42,600
You cannot torment anyone...
912
00:38:43,700 --> 00:38:45,100
any longer.
913
00:38:45,100 --> 00:38:46,867
If it really is John Sage
914
00:38:46,867 --> 00:38:48,600
that we've been
communicating with,
915
00:38:49,100 --> 00:38:51,400
we should leave him in history
916
00:38:51,767 --> 00:38:52,867
where he belongs.
917
00:38:52,867 --> 00:38:54,900
He doesn't deserve a voice.
918
00:38:57,667 --> 00:39:00,200
[Josh] Heather's words
were seemingly prophetic.
919
00:39:00,200 --> 00:39:02,300
The team continued to search
for John Sage
920
00:39:02,300 --> 00:39:03,166
through the night,
921
00:39:03,166 --> 00:39:05,867
but there were
no further responses.
922
00:39:05,867 --> 00:39:08,266
Heather believes
her challenge may have worked.
923
00:39:08,266 --> 00:39:09,867
By confronting Sage,
924
00:39:09,867 --> 00:39:12,900
his spirit was perhaps
scared off for good,
925
00:39:12,900 --> 00:39:14,667
or at least for now.
926
00:39:14,667 --> 00:39:16,767
[bleep] my life.
[bleep] my life.
927
00:39:16,767 --> 00:39:19,367
[Josh] But of course,
that was only the team's
final encounter...
928
00:39:19,367 --> 00:39:22,567
Oh, my God.
A body is in the tree.
929
00:39:22,567 --> 00:39:24,266
[Josh] ...of their many
disturbing moments
930
00:39:24,266 --> 00:39:25,800
at Chillingham Castle.
931
00:39:26,100 --> 00:39:26,967
[gasps]
932
00:39:26,967 --> 00:39:28,767
[Heather] What was that?
933
00:39:28,767 --> 00:39:30,467
[Josh] The team carefully
reviewed footage
934
00:39:30,467 --> 00:39:32,800
from the fixed camera
in the Great Hall,
935
00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:35,767
but remained unable
to determine any reason
936
00:39:35,767 --> 00:39:38,000
for it to fall
at the moment it did.
937
00:39:38,000 --> 00:39:38,700
[Phil] Just trying
to figure out
938
00:39:38,700 --> 00:39:40,400
how that could have happened.
939
00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:41,967
[Josh] Footage
of the wall-mounted sword
940
00:39:41,967 --> 00:39:43,700
in King Edward's room...
941
00:39:44,767 --> 00:39:45,600
[both exclaiming]
942
00:39:45,600 --> 00:39:47,100
[Josh] ...was
equally confounding.
943
00:39:47,100 --> 00:39:48,700
Like, that takes
a lot of force
944
00:39:48,700 --> 00:39:50,467
to move this thing.
945
00:39:50,467 --> 00:39:52,867
[Josh] Examining
the footage frame by frame,
946
00:39:52,867 --> 00:39:55,867
the sword does seem
to impossibly move
947
00:39:55,867 --> 00:39:57,033
of its own accord.
948
00:39:57,867 --> 00:39:59,100
Phil believes that it could be
949
00:39:59,100 --> 00:40:01,266
some kind of digital glitch
in the footage,
950
00:40:01,266 --> 00:40:03,266
but admits
he's never encountered
951
00:40:03,266 --> 00:40:05,367
anything like it before.
952
00:40:05,367 --> 00:40:08,000
Even if some
of the horrifying things
we saw
953
00:40:08,000 --> 00:40:09,767
and heard were disputable...
954
00:40:09,767 --> 00:40:10,900
[Phil] Look at that.
955
00:40:10,900 --> 00:40:13,000
[Josh] ...the things
we found were not.
956
00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:14,166
[Phil] Look, look, look.
957
00:40:14,166 --> 00:40:15,667
[Josh] We showed images
of the bone
958
00:40:15,667 --> 00:40:17,000
found in the oubliette...
959
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:18,500
[Heather] Oh, my God.
960
00:40:18,500 --> 00:40:20,166
[Josh] ...to
a forensic anthropologist,
961
00:40:20,166 --> 00:40:23,166
and they confirmed
it appeared human.
962
00:40:23,166 --> 00:40:25,867
But most shocking of all was
the lead object
963
00:40:25,867 --> 00:40:27,767
Phil discovered
near the castle.
964
00:40:27,767 --> 00:40:29,200
[Phil] Holy [bleep].
Look at this!
965
00:40:29,500 --> 00:40:30,834
We got something.
966
00:40:31,166 --> 00:40:32,100
[Josh] It was sent
967
00:40:32,100 --> 00:40:34,166
to the UK's National
Physics Laboratory
968
00:40:34,166 --> 00:40:36,400
for detailed analysis.
969
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,867
And their findings
were stunning.
970
00:40:38,867 --> 00:40:41,400
The object was dated to be
at least medieval
971
00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:42,700
and likely older.
972
00:40:43,066 --> 00:40:44,000
Even more remarkable,
973
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:46,000
x-ray imaging indicated
974
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:48,567
writing hidden
within the object.
975
00:40:48,567 --> 00:40:50,700
It is believed
what Phil discovered is
976
00:40:50,700 --> 00:40:52,500
a Roman curse scroll.
977
00:40:53,467 --> 00:40:56,467
The Romans would forge objects
containing curses
978
00:40:56,467 --> 00:40:57,867
aimed at their enemies.
979
00:40:57,867 --> 00:40:59,467
They would then bury them,
980
00:40:59,467 --> 00:41:02,867
bringing misfortune
to the place and its people.
981
00:41:02,867 --> 00:41:04,467
Could this object explain
982
00:41:04,467 --> 00:41:06,800
Chillingham's disturbing
paranormal activity?
983
00:41:07,900 --> 00:41:09,367
Unquestionably, it is a find
984
00:41:09,367 --> 00:41:11,800
of great
archaeological significance,
985
00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:13,367
as well as being perhaps
986
00:41:13,367 --> 00:41:17,400
the most unsettling artifacts
we've ever found.
987
00:41:17,400 --> 00:41:20,500
Yes, after all we experienced
and discovered...
988
00:41:20,500 --> 00:41:21,800
-[disembodied voice] Sage.
-Sage!
989
00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:22,900
[Josh] ...it is hard to argue
990
00:41:22,900 --> 00:41:24,166
that there are any places
991
00:41:24,166 --> 00:41:26,166
more chilling
than Chillingham.
992
00:41:26,166 --> 00:41:28,967
