Demon House Page #7

Floating right there?

That's weird.

Now it's, like, gone.

So it's transient.

And what was odd

is the transient nature.

It's not against the wall.

It's not on the floor.

It's not up above.

It's a couple feet forward.

It's a couple feet,

middle of the room.

Half my height up,

and it's...

- Pulsing.

- Pulsing.

Whoa.

I'm getting a...

Hang on.

What's the matter?

Ooh.

[eerie music]

Hmm.

[eerie music]

Then, shortly after

is when I felt

- the pain in my temples,

- The rush of energy, yeah.

and then I had

to leave that room.

And when I left that room,

I started getting emotional

a second time,

like I was just gonna cry.

And then I would

get aggressive.

My eyes begin hurting

for no reason,

and I don't realize

it's a warning sign

for what's to come.

That's what happens.

It comes in, and it'll hit...

Ah.

Slap your hand together

like that again.

[hand smacks]

Just as you did that,

we got a spike

on the instrument.

That's what happens.

It comes in,

and it'll hit me...

Ah.

Why would that happen?

Your body is, in some way...

it's not...

well, it's in some way

affecting the electromagnetic

field here.

Your body is a capacitor.

It's being charged up

by this environment,

and you discharged it.

Let me see if I'm getting it

off him, then.

Let's try that back.

I'm getting real aggravated.

Look, look, look,

look, look.

It's magnetic, look.

We didn't get that

before, did we?

No.

20 milligauss

coming off you.

That's a little high.

Why would your body

be emitting... now, remember,

biomagnetic fields

are really weak.

You need

a superconducting sensor.

And what was I giving off?

20 milligauss?

About maybe 8 million

to 12 million times normal.

What?

8 million to 12 million

times normal.

- 8 to...

- To 12 million.

The average human body's

magnetic field...

we generate a magnetic...

is measured in millionths

of a gauss.

It's a 1-hertz... look at it.

It's like a...

yeah, not a 1-hertz.

You see that?

Wow, interesting.

And yet, when I...

move away from here

to see if the space

is affected.

It stopped moving

because he moved.

All of a sudden,

something causes me

to lunge at Dr. Taff,

and as I force myself

to walk away,

realizing I may attack him,

my cameraman captures

the device spiking again...

at the same exact time

as my hostile movement.

That thing just spiked

when I did that.

That a dog?

What happened?

Do they have a dog

next to us here?

- A what?

- A dog.

- Is there a dog?

- No, there's no dogs.

Then I just heard a,

"Grough!"

You heard it here before.

Like a, "Ough!"

From over there... "Rowf."

Assume it's a dog.

Where did you hear it?

Come from over here.

Just here.

"Ough."

I thought, well,

there's a dog.

I heard dogs.

We have no animals.

Something starts to happen

to Dr. Taff

after he and my camera

operator hear the growl.

And now I'm noticing

a pattern

of how people act

when the house

is starting to have

an effect on them.

- Oh, no.

- What's wrong?

They appear lost in thought

and confused.

[eerie music]

Do you want to get

out of here for a minute?

Are you okay?

Yeah.

'Cause you're...

Actually, I need something

to drink, like water.

Yeah, I just feel very...

yeah, I'm feeling dizzy or...

I'm noticing that you keep

shutting your eyes and swaying.

Yeah, because I feel like

I'm gonna fall backwards.

I feel like I'm gonna pass out.

Let me see, if I move...

Are you okay?

As we head upstairs,

I go outside

to clear my mind

from the house.

And at that time,

I don't notice

Dr. Taff becoming

affected again.

Weeks after

this investigation,

we discover

something disturbing

captured on this camera

while he walks

in a state of confusion

towards the back hallway.

[eerie music]

The black anomaly

appears in seven frames,

shooting at 24 frames

per second.

One, two, three, four,

five, six, seven.

Which means that when played

at regular speed,

the anomaly manifests

in a fraction of a second.

As Dr. Taff walks back,

he places his hand

in the exact spot

where the black mass

just manifested off the wall,

at which time he immediately

becomes affected again.

Oh, it's really bad in there.

That same sense of nausea,

like you're gonna throw up.

Reverse peristaltic action,

very strong in there.

I take the footage

to Ed Wiebe,

who was a video engineer

for NASA for 32 years.

Really increased the

luminosity just a little bit,

just to see some of the other

detail on the object.

Prior to that, we can see that

it's different intensities.

There's not

the same intensity.

So we thought it was

a hand or something like that

from someone else,

say the cameraman, perhaps,

his hand wouldn't be broken up

into different intensities.

It would all be one hand.

I'm 100% sure that is not

the cameraman's hand.

You've got the regular shadow

of the cameraman back here.

It's like a gray,

very light gray.

But then,

as the anomaly's happening,

there's this real dark

band of shadow

all down in here.

We don't see it retract

back into the wall.

It's quite possible it could

have entered the cameraman.

I don't know if that cameraman

had any problems

after this shoot.

As a matter of fact,

that cameraman

did have problems.

A little while later,

he suddenly had to lie down.

He then begins acting

very strange,

like he's confused.

No one sees him wander off

into the basement alone.

[ominous music]

Later, we find

the cameraman, Adam,

lying on his back

in the back bedroom,

where Mika's

murdered brother lived.

As we return to the hotel,

that same cameraman, Adam,

starts vomiting blood

in my bathroom.

He then leaves my room

and begins screaming my name

in a strange voice.

We start rolling

with our cameras.

- What's wrong with him?

- Where'd he go?

Film.

- Wait.

- Shh.

He's calling security.

[elevator door opens]

[whispering]

Where did he go?

[ominous music]

Come here, you f***er!

B*tch!

Whatever is affecting him,

he's taunting it to do more.

I'm right near that f***er!

[ominous music]

[shouting indistinctly]

[banging]

Dude, what's wrong?

F*** that sh*t,

f*** that sh*t.

Adam, what's...

Not gonna f*** with me

like that.

What's in the elevator?

Nothing, nothing.

It's a b*tch.

If there's anything here,

it's a b*tch.

You hear, f***er?

Huh?

What is wrong with him?

Have you ever seen him

like that before, Jay?

No, never.

How long have you known him?

Years.

That was the scariest thing

I've ever seen in my life.

[elevator door opens]

[whispering] Crazy.

- Security's coming.

- Yeah, I know.

[elevator door opens]

Adam, let's go,

before security comes.

At this same moment,

two floors above us,

Dr. Taff is also experiencing

something strange.

Got back to the hotel,

and I had a strange sense

of anxiety, irritability.

I'm sleeping, and suddenly,

not in the room,

in my left ear,

I hear, like,

a really loud bell.

Jump out of bed.

"What was that?"
