Ugh, why do I get into

these situations?

I knew it.

You know, for footprints.

This all we get today?

I'd be happy.

Wait till the Ghost Getters

see that!

I guess we should go in there

and do some EVP work.

What is it again?

We ask questions to the spirits.

And then listen back to the

audio recorders to see

if anybody...

said anything.

So, talking to ourselves?

Cool, okay.

So what are we asking?

Did you die in this room?

Are you mad that you're dead?

We should probably kill

the flashlights.

Electronics tend to uh,

throw off electro magnetic

field readings.

Okay.

Point seven,

point eight, point nine.

Uh, wait. I think I'm

getting something here.

Don't move

- So who's Ace?

- Oh.

Sorry. It's just that you

mentioned his name

at the weekly session.

- I didn't mean to...

- No, it's fine.

He's my brother.

Oh!

So, he's passed?

He had a really...

rough time.

It sucks.

He really got into drugs and

couple of years ago, he od'ed.

I guess I like to think that

people still stick around,

I don't know.

I know it's silly but I feel we

need these silly things to get

you through the day.

I don't think

it's silly.

You ghosts, suck.

You can't make your

sh*t visible.

You do suck.

You probably died because

no one loved you.

Well, one person loved you

but then...

But then she was abducted

and then you...

You realized...

Well, no one would care

if I was gone.

So, why even

take up space

on the earth anymore?

Or something?

How come you work

at Micro Center?

How come you work

at Micro Center?

You graduated with a degree

in engineering in two years.

That's pretty impressive.

Shouldn't you be doing

research at MIT or something?

Yeah, I mean, sure.

That could have been my path.

But I thought I'd get some

experience first

in consumer electronics.

And then I could focus on,

commercial engineering.

Invent the next

blu-ray, Ethernet.

Look at that, the tape is out.

We should probably get back

to the shack and switch it out.

You go.

I want to...

stay here and...

try to tune into

this energy.

Okay.

If you need to consume

human life, take mine.

Good luck with that.

This is the place where we saw

that thermo cloud we were

telling you guys about.

- Let's see if we can.

- Are these yours?

No!

Louis to Ghost Team, come in.

Has anyone been in the barn

since Stan and I were here?

Negative.

No.

Don't do that, you dick.

- Dude, chill out,

I'm just kidding.

- I know.

Do you?

Where's miss Cleo?

Who's that?

The psychic woman? One of

the four people on the trip

with us?

The lady with the hair?

She said she felt energy

coming from the barn.

Energy? She's probably

looking for spare change.

She's about as psychic as I am.

Hop up, I need to download

this audio card.

Alright, but I get it

when you are done.

Okay.

What is that?

- We did an EVP recording.

It's where you record ghosts.

- I know.

It was the stupidest thing.

We just talked to ourselves

and sit around and Stan like...

Wait. What's that?

Rewind.

What is that?

I don't know.

Holy sh*t! That is amazing.

You guys, that's a great piece

of evidence.

- Can't hear what

it's saying thought.

- Play it again.

Something then?

We need to get...

the cinnamon.

We need to get

the cinnamon.

What the frik does

that mean?

I don't know.

Maybe we should go

to a grocery store.

Ross is a p*ssy?

Ross is a p*ssy?

Yeah, I don't think so.

Shut up, Zak.

Just speaking the truth.

We should get rid of them.

Oh, God she's right.

I don't think

we are welcome here.

Let's see what they want.

Maybe we should

get them cinnamon.

Stay on track. We need to

open up a line of communication.

Hey, do you think we could...

You guys,

where's Victoria?

- I don't know. Why are you

looking at me?

- She was with you!

She said she wanted to look

around. I thought she came in

when I radioed everyone.

Louis to Victoria, come in.

Louis to Victoria.

Press the button on the side,

like we went over.

Ross. Can you pause

the surveillance cameras?

She's probably in a place which

we can't see. Rewind to see

where she was heading.

It's full speed.

She's in the stables.

- We should all go.

- Yeah, yeah.

We need to stick together.

I don't think we are alone.

Clear.

Do you really have

to walk like that?

Yeah he does. It tells

the other peacocks

that he's looking to mate.

It's a tactical entrance

posture. It's standard

police procedure but,

I wouldn't expect you dorks

to know anything about that.

Well, you are not even

a police officer.

- Well, he almost was.

- Shut up.

Wait. You were a cop?

- Almost.

- Zak, shut up!

Ross, I'm sorry. I have

to tell them the story.

Shut up, Zak!

So he's in the police

academy, right?

And during the final exams

there is a role play thing.

It's a robbery scenario.

So, people are firing blanks,

the guys are taking hostages,

Well, tell them

what happened, Ross.

- Nothing.

- Ross?

- Clear.

- Be honest.

They thought I cried,

okay? Ha-ha.

He cried.

He bawled during

his police exams.

I wasn't bawling, I was

just crying a lot.

And it was because I was

sleep deprived, okay? It was

not on purpose. It was stress.

And they flunked you

because of that?

They said I wasn't tough enough.

Well, that's not true, right?

Tell that to the ten-year-old

he tackled him into the wall.

Shut up, Zak.

He was 12 and he was stealing.

Just leave him alone.

She's not here, it's all clear.

We never saw her come out.

Where is she?

- Who knows...

- Guys?

Whoa, what was that?

Hold on, hold on.

That was definitely something.

If there

are any spirits who'd like

to make contact,

I'm here.

It's cold, but I'm here.

I'm willing to have

a conversation.

Let's do it.

What is that?

What the hell is that?

It's cold but I'm here.

I'm willing to have a conversation.

Let's do it.

It's a face. Stan!

We got a face!

A face? Like an alien face?

No, no, no.

What's wrong?

Battery's dead.

That's impossible. We didn't

leave anything on.

What?

Well, one of the leading

theories in the field is,

they draw on a power source

to manifest themselves, like...

camera batteries or flashlights

or generators but...

I don't know. Draining an entire

car battery. That's a...

lot of energy.

What are we supposed to do?

We can't call anybody and

we can't get out of here!

We're just supposed to wait

around till we get killed?

No.

I'm going back in.

Look, I...

I put the team together.

I found the place, it's my fault

one of us was taken.

I said I wanted proof

of the paranormal and...

I'm not leaving without her.

I'm staying too.

So what if we get killed.

Who cares?

I'm in.

Well,

I'm not waiting alone.

- I'm not going back

in there either.

- Thats fine.

Zak, you're going to take

the first shift in the comm

shack.

You tell us if you see anything

at all on the surveillance

camera and

we'll come as fas as we can.

Let's hunt some

mother effing ghosts.

That's what I thought...
