Severed Footage Page #3

Synopsis: Between 2007 and 2011, twelve severed feet in running shoes have been found off the coast of Western Canada and Washington State. This is the only place in the world where severed feet are mysteriously washing up on shore. Police are baffled by this phenomenon as no other body parts have been discovered. Major news networks including, CNN, ABC, CBC, MSNBC, BBC, CTV as well as National Geographic have been following this bizarre story looking for answers. In 2007 a university nerd devised a plan to meet the hottest girls in his class by filming his history project on Kanaka Pete the Axe Murderer. Kanaka Pete was hung for chopping up his family. He was buried in an unmarked grave on Newcastle Island, which is also a hot spot for paranormal activity. This is in the same area where many of the severed feet have been found. The students were camping on Newcastle Island when something went very wrong. The tape that the students were making was recently leaked from the local authorities by an

He only killed all the kids, all the kids

and the misses and stuff like that.

- Oh ya.

- But that's not it. That's not it.

He claims he was innocent.

And in doing so. Just as he dropped him.

Just off Gallows Point there.

- Ya.

- He says I'll be back to haunt you.

He is.

So.

Why would anyone live on a haunted island?

No. I mean one where you really get

not just haunted, but dead.

People have died?

Oh. Only the ones that don't live.

I guess so. I guess so.

They hung him here?

Why did they hang him in town?

Look you've got to find out from somebody

else.

Look that's enough guys.

- Why don't you just bugger off.

- Ok.

Do you mind?

And you're pointing that camera at me.

So what do you think about that guy?

- That guy?

- Ya.

He was nuts.

He was a bit crazy.

I don't know. I've never heard of that

story before though so...

We could look something up.

See if it's actually interesting.

- Axe murderer is sort of cool.

- It is.

It's a lot cooler than some of the lame

stuff.

The bathtub races or something like that.

- This wouldn't be a bad opening scene.

- Ya.

Could have one of the girls lying behind

me here.

And another one, I don't.

Grappling me or something.

- Grappling you?

- Ya. Not sure if there is a better spot.

I don't know why you're wasting film if

they're not going to show up anyway.

But anyway I don't know.

Let's just get going.

He sucks at jet skiing.

We have a rider down.

- I do not suck.

- You have a skeleton.

I have hot babes jet skiing on the weekend.

- Oh ya.

- Ya.

I thought you couldn't swim.

I thought you were afraid of the water.

- Ready to film?

- Ya I'm rolling.

Ok. Ok.

So.

Captain's log.

Star date September 18th, 2007

This is the Captain.

Enough Captain Jerk stuff.

I'm not a Trekkie and I don't want

to be one.

Good. About time you stopped that

stupid stuff.

Ok. Ok.

No more talking from the peanut gallery.

And thanks a bunch.

Anyway. So me and Mark were doing

some research.

And we have a really cool topic

for our documentary.

I've been asking around class and

everyone's doing like logging, coal...

mining or the fur trade, just boring.

- Mark, can you get this on that?

- Yup.

Let's see.

So.

Paranormal Hot Spots.

The Haunting of Newcastle Island.

The most haunted area in the entire Pacific

Northwest is Newcastle Island.

Newcastle Island was used as a smallpox

colony in the early 1800s.

Hundreds of men, women and

children died on that island...

and were buried in unmarked,

makeshift graves.

So the ghosts are from the people who died

and were buried there?

Ya. Some are, but it gets better.

In 1887 the largest mining disaster in

British Columbia's history happened when...

an explosion trapped and killed 150 miners

in the coal shafts under Newcastle Island.

Their bodies were never recovered.

So our report is going to be on the ghosts

of buried miners?

Ya but listen to this one.

Kanaka Pete.

In 1869 a big Hawaiian named Kanaka Pete

came home drunk late one night.

Found his Native wife in bed

with her father.

We were talking to a guy about this one.

In a fit of rage, chopped them up into

pieces with an axe along with her...

mother and his infant daughter.

That... that's disgusting.

That is disgusting.

He chopped up his family.

No. Sleeping with her father.

Well. He attempted to escape

to Vancouver by canoe...

but while spending the night

on Newcastle Island he was captured.

After a quick trial he was hung then buried

in an unmarked grave on...

Newcastle Island by what is now called

Kanaka Bay.

I don't believe in ghosts.

Ya. Me neither.

Well look. This is what we are going

to do it on.

Newcastle Island.

The hauntings of Newcastle Island.

True or make believe.

Ya, I guess.

And we get to be ghost hunters.

How cool is that.

Ya.

You can't hunt ghosts without a ghost

meter.

What the heck is a ghost meter?

It's the device that you use to track the

presence of ghosts. Everyone knows this.

I've never heard of a ghost meter.

That's because they don't actually exist.

- They exist.

- Nothing actually detects ghosts.

You're not first people to try and do this.

- Look it up online

- I am going to look it up online.

Because the Internet tells all.

The Internet never lies.

Well, apparently maybe it does sometimes.

Check it out. Ghost meter.

This thing detects the presence of ghosts.

And they even have pictures of ghosts.

For real?

Ya check it out. Right here.

Aside from a camera the most basic tool

for a ghost hunter is the EMF meter.

I think it's rubbish.

There's loads of stuff.

There's a Youtube video.

They're selling it on Amazon.com

Look at this.

Wow. There is over 100 reviews on the

thing.

Loads of reviews on this thing.

Check out this one. I've taken my ghost

meter to suspected sites of paranormal...

activity and my ghost meter had detected

the spirits every time.

It is very accurate.

We've got to get one of these.

Totally.

You're throwing your money out.

We can prove whether or not

there's ghosts there.

If there are, we've detected it with this.

If there aren't, whatever, we proved

they don't actually exist there.

Tony's not showing up.

- Looks like they're here though.

- Hey!

- How's it going?

- Not too bad.

Glad you guys showed up.

Mark's already filming for some reason.

I was told to film everything.

So I'm filming everything.

I see you eyeing. My mom made cookies.

- Hum, those look yummy.

- So we might as well snack before we film.

Sure.

- So, hey Mat.

- Ya?

Is it true that you and your older brother

and you still live in your mom's basement?

Who told you that?

Well you do.

Well. That is because of her accident

though.

My mom used to be a skydiver and...

You don't get a cookie.

Her parachute didn't open one time.

And her second parachute didn't open.

You know.

So she broke pretty much

every bone in her body.

She is a quadriplegic now.

- Oh.

- Oh.

I don't like to talk about it.

That is really nice of you and your

brother to take care of her though.

- You must be a really good guy.

- It's true.

Man I smell something in the air.

We are just going to start filming Ok.

You guys ready?

Do you know what you're saying?

You can finish your cookies first.

- Ok.

- Can I have a cookie too?

-No.

- What?

No!

Do not talk about me to them ok?

I'll try.

- Don't mention my mother.

- I'll try.

Don't mention my brother.

Mention my bike but nothing else.

- Ok?

- Ok.

- Mark you filming?

- I'm filming.

Ok.

Coming to you live from across from...

Newcastle Island. We have our team

here for our project.

Mark on camera.

Sabrina.

Kimberly.

And of course master mind Mathieu

right here.

We don't have Tony here but we'll make sure

he helps out in other parts of the project.

So, we are going to talk about the unique

history of Newcastle which is...

not commonly discussed.

And we're starting off with Sabrina.

Alright.

In the early 1900's there was a group...
