go cause you're not here. - What's over there? - So I really wished you

would have talked to us. So we went back to the

union brewery and I wanted to play with the spirit

box a little bit more. So I was just messing around

with it, asking questions, seeing if I could get

any answers out of it. PS37 ITC research device. - [Sean] Do you want to go downstairs or do you want to try again later? - Is there anybody in here right now? Please tell me yes on this spirit box. (static crackling) there's a viking in here. Is there anybody else

here that wants to say hi? - [Spirit Box] Sounds like. - Sounds like what? - I'm just going station by station now. (static crackling)

(garbled Talking) - [Voiceover] Nothing. - [Voiceover] How can

you think about nothing? - [Voiceover] I do it all the time. - We're haunted, we're

haunted by a married couple that has a laugh track. - [Voiceover] Will you tell me the truth? - I mean that's not the

way that it is used. People don't use it by

going one station at a time. I mean that's not-- - Do you see it -- - I mean I have seen it used

where there is no chance of a radio signal being picked up at all. - Okay I'll admit, I could be wrong but I don't believe the

stuff that we're hearing in here is a spirit, I think it's a radio. If you randomly get a

DJ saying certain words, you're going to hear that,

or a commercial or whatever. You're gonna hear what you want to hear. - I'd have to say my least

favorite, unfortunately, and it's very popular

out there is probably going to be the ghost boxes. I've taught classes where

I've actually recorded like a two hour cycle and I

presented it to my students, and I said we're going

to try this experiment and I'm gonna turn this ghost box on and I want you guys to ask questions and see if you get any answers. And sure enough with something

that was pre-recorded, they didn't know that it was pre-recorded, they were still able to pull

out answers out of questions that they were asking live at that moment. Unfortunately in this

field, it's so easy to point at shadows and flickers of lights and strange noises and

say oh that's a ghost. - PSB7 Spirit Box. The spirit box captures

spirit voices in real time. Using a millisecond

adjustable forward and reverse frequency sweep, and using

high frequency white noise, the box scans AM and FM

frequency ranges from 76 mega hertz to 87.9 mega hertz. The first spirit box is said

to date back to Thomas Edison, who is rumored to have

been working on a variation of the box wile inventing the phonograph. Frank Sumption, inventor of

the modern day spirit box, claims spirits helped

him invent the device and white noise creates raw audio that spirits can use to

communicate with the user. The SB7 is a spin-off of

Sumption's invention and was originally created to communicate

with extra terrestrials. There is no scientific proof, that the spirit box

does what it's claimed. - When we were finished with that, Angela and I had the opportunity

to go back to the Washoe and have a private tour

of the second floor. Here we are in the stairway heading upstairs of the

world famous Washoe Club. I was scared, but I was

excited, I was scared excited. I was excited scared. I didn't know what I was. Thomas was gracious

enough to take us upstairs and as we moved through the location, there was a physical change in our bodies. You feel it up there, you just feel it. He took us through all

the hotspots in the areas where things have been captured on film, where things have been reported. Thomas took us into a room that we stood at the entrance, he says. - Go in that room. - [Angela] Okay. No thanks. - When we got inside, Thomas

said tell me if there's an area in this room that feels different. - I always leave it up to the individual. - I walked up, I put my hand on the spot and I said, right here? - [Thomas] Yes, you're exactly right. - He then told us the history of the room. - [Thomas] This spot there was a woman that was in this spot. She was so terrified, she was not killed, but she was so terrified and

it imprinted in that corner. - It wasn't until later,

reviewing the footage as I'm standing there

with my hand on the wall, we have the glowing

white light anomaly come out of my hand and Float up my arm. I can explain the feeling, and

I can't give you the feeling on film of what was

happening in that room. I will say it was intense. It was one of the most

intense paranormal experiences I've ever had. It was emotional and

it was scary and it was exciting and it was draining. - [Bill] What you did however, the guy had you do to go to that

spot, that actually, going back to Gertrude

Schmeidler, she pioneered an experiment you can conduct in the field which is you take a bunch of people who don't know anything about

the ghost story into a house, give them a floor plan and say see if anything feels weird in this house. And you do it in two houses,

one haunted and one not, and see if they mark

the spots that actually match what the witnesses say. And you get these great

responses that people always pick the stuff up,

so back to your question about how we prove it to

a skeptic, explain that. - [Thomas] Have you ever

watched Ghost Adventures? That floor of the Washoe

Club was what really started it all for Ghost

Adventures and every TV series, every ghost

television show has been there at one point or another, so we felt incredibly lucky to be there. - [Thomas] Remember the

first two or three seasons, they showed a noose? - [Sean] Yeah. - [Thomas] There it is. - [Sean] What. - [Thomas] Yep. - [Angela] That's the noose. - [Thomas] Yeah that's the noose. It's old phone cord. (laughing) I don't know maybe Zak and

them did it back in 2004. - [Sean] Okay tell me

what's going on right now? - Oh with went to the Washoe Club, I just got really, really

cold and my head just started killing me and I'm not a headache girl. As a believer, I do think

that spirits and entities can draw your energy out of your body. I don't know, but I do

know is that when I came back downstairs and asked

the bartender for some aspirin, two other people

in the bar with her, both all turned around and said, "That is not uncommon up there." So I don't know if there's

asbestos or something that causes people to have headaches or if the ghosts are just grabbing the back of my neck really hard. That could be it, I don't know. - [Sean] Or aliens. - It could be aliens, that's a possibility. - While Sean and Angela

were at the Washoe Club we stayed at the brewery

to investigate the basement with a San Francisco

based paranormal group. - We asked to just quietly

come along and watch. - I think I would honestly

say, after this weekend you probably will be convinced. - [Ill] That was Dawn

on the stairs tagged. - [Blonde] You saw something Dawn? - [Dawn] Yes. - [blonde Lady] What? - [Dawn] Sorry. - [Blond Lady] Are you by Dawn right now? - [Dawn] Cold chill right through my body. - [Blonde Lady] I felt a
