The Dead Files

Subs created by: David Coleman.

Tonight...

Physical pain here.

On "Dead Files Revisited"...

A second look at some of Amy and Steve's most terrifying cases.

It's kind of creepy.

New information.

Scared the hell out of me.

Startling revelations.

My fear was real.

First a return to Uriah, Alabama.

Where violent encounters...

I fell through the ceiling.

Were just the beginning.

I heard a little girl scream.

What happened after the investigation?

It was terrifying.

- Then... - A lot of blood in my mouth.

We travel back to Santa Fe, New Mexico...

It was haunted.

To a notorious prison overrun by evil.

Far worse than any demon.

The monster turns one woman's world into hell...

Somebody can see into my head.

And leads to a life-changing decision.

It was a bad idea.

Did she follow Amy's advice?

I can't even look.

There's something down there.

My name is Amy Allan.

A lot of dead people are here.

I see dead people.

This is not good.

I speak to dead people...

He is very pissed off.

And they speak to me...

The house is angry.

But there's only way to know if my findings are real.

He's killed people.

I rely on my partner.

I'm Steve Di Schiavi.

I'm a retired New York City homicide Detective...

He got shot at his house?

And I know every person, every house has secrets.

Aren't you terrified being here?

It's my job to reveal 'em.

That sounds like something out of "The Exorcist."

But Steve and I never speak...

We never communicate during an investigation.

Until the very end.

It's bad.

When we uncover if it's safe for you to stay...

I'd like some answers.

Or time to get out.

This investigation took us to a tiny town in Alabama called Uriah.

About an hour from Mobile.

The investigation started with a call from a woman named Robin.

She's never believed in the paranormal, but sometimes a near-death experience

will change the way you look at things.

Pretty much since we bought this place, you know,

strange things have started happening.

I've seen and heard a few things, but recently, I was physically attacked.

And I can't explain it away in my head.

I haven't felt comfortable telling anybody a lot of this stuff,

and for a long time I didn't.

But Steve... he didn't make me feel like I was a lunatic, which I was afraid of.

So, Robin, you never believed in the paranormal before, but you do now?

Yes.

- Why not just move? - It's not really an option for us.

You know, we've, we've put our life savings into this place

and, you know, there's really nowhere for us to go.

On the drive to the house, I was swarmed by powerful entities.

As soon as I stepped out of the car, two of them came right after me.

There were two men.

They're both kind of freaky.

I also did see the word "poltergeist."

I don't like it here.

What's wrong?

He doesn't want me here...

And he doesn't want me to talk about him.

And he threatened me, and I'm kind of scared because...

Because, like, I think he can, like, really do ...

And I don't like him.

I've gotten used to people telling

me they've seen and heard terrifying things.

But what happened to Robin had me wondering how she was still alive.

A little over a year ago, I was following my brother-in-law

from one side of the attic to the other, and...

He had just walked across a plank, and when I stepped on the middle of the plank...

It cracked, and I fell through the ceiling.

I fell from there all the way to the floor in the entryway.

You fell from that hole in that ceiling all the way down to here?

Yes.

All the way down.

That's amazing that you're not dead.

I know. I should be.

So this guy can kill people.

How?

Strangle them, beat them, throw them down the stairs,

give them a heart attack, anything he wants, really.

This guy was so dangerous.

I couldn't believe people lived in that house.

I didn't even want to be there one night.

This area is not safe.

So, Robin, what's going on in here?

One night, uh, I was awakened, and when I looked back this way,

there was a tall, thin outline of a man.

No details, just sort of, you know, shades of gray.

That's bizarre.

I don't have any explanation for it, Steve. I'm... I'm at a loss.

It likes standing over the beds.

- It feels better when I... - And what is it doing when it does that?

Mm...

It tries to kill people.

Does it?

I think it could.

So, Ty, I was talking to your wife.

Um, she's experiencing some pretty bizarre things in the house.

Um, how about yourself? Anything?

No, I haven't... I haven't seen anything in the house.

I mean, she's, you know, tried to point some things out to me at times.

But nothing. I-I can't see it.

Do you believe her?

I believe she sees something.

At first, Ty told me he hadn't seen or heard anything weird.

But once we got talking, he confessed to a crazy experience of his own.

A buddy of mine... Danny... and myself

had come back by the house on our way to Mobile.

When I go in the house, I heard a little girl scream.

Just like a kid screaming?

No, it was like I had startled the child.

And when I got in the truck, Danny asked me, he said...

"Tell me you heard that."

I said, "heard what, Danny?"

He said, "well, I heard a little girl scream."

But there's no small children in this area,

and it sounded like it come from in the house.

I am hearing residual screaming. I don't know what that's about.

Females...

- Screaming. - Words or just screams?

Nah, just screaming.

High-pitched screaming, pain.

Can other people hear these screams?

If they're a little bit sensitive, yeah.

That house was buzzing with activity.

But every time I tried to communicate with a dead person.

One entity kept blocking them.

Are you all right?

Then his interference turned into physical attacks.

Wherever this guy is, it's hard to breathe.

He makes it hard to breathe, but it's, like, from inside.

It's really weird. I don't like it.

Mm, he's trying to smother.

That's when I realized why I'd seen the word "poltergeist."

He's all over here. He can move things.

He's like a poltergeist manifestation.

How does he feel about the people in the house?

Um, he would like to kill them.

Coming up next...

They look like zombies.

An evil entity stalks Amy.

I don't like it.

And in our second investigation, a return to one woman's portal to hell.

I can't even look at that.

Did she listen to Amy...

I was freaked out.

Or is she paying the price?

I can't live like this.

Amy and I investigated an old plantation home in Uriah, Alabama.

Our client was Robin,

a woman who felt something in the house was trying to hurt her.

I fell through the ceiling all the way to the floor.

At this point, I didn't have much to go on.

Local property records went all the way back to the 1880s.

But there was absolutely nothing on the house.

That was unusual.

I knew I had to find out why.

So I tracked down the woman who sold the house to Robin and her husband Ty.

Anna, maybe you could clear something up for me.

The house records and the property records aren't matching up.

Uh, does that make any sense to you?

Yeah, the house was not there originally.

Anna explained that the house had been moved from its original property

on the Alabama river 90 miles away.

You could see the river from three sides of the house.

There was another structure, and it was moving, moving, moving. Mm-hmm.

And there's...

A river...

Which is important?

Now that I knew the history of the house, I was able to locate a descendent

of the man who built it in the 1880s.

Going into this interview, I hoped to get some more history on the house,

but what I found was a lot of death.

The house was originally built by a man named William "Doc" King

he went off to The Civil War, caught Yellow Fever,

and came back home to a-a run-down plantation.

He was very sick.

And they lost, uh, two of their young children, a toddler daughter, Rebecca...

Who was named for his wife... passed away,

and then William passed away the next day.
