Ghost Nation

Next on "ghost nation"...

There's constantly eyes watching both of us.

We need help.

They've seen an african-american man in a tree.

It scared the piss out of me.

You should not still be here.

We had an active kkk.

It's my belief swaggerty was targeted.

- What was that? - Something's going on here.

It was just so weird because we heard a bang.

You didn't.

That's the same thing that happened to the family.

- Singling out. - It singles out.

Can you move this toy car for me?

Are you here with us?

it scared the hell out of me.

There is something else in this house.

Make some sort of a noise. Let us know you're here with us.

I'm right beside you.

We are a community of searchers.

This family is under attack.

We are...

"ghost nation."

For the past 20 years. Steve, tango, and I

have pioneered the way of paranormal investigation.

Please help me welcome to the stage mr. Jason hawes

steve gonsalves, and dave tango!

we are now entering a new chapter

in our paranormal careers

and are ready to share our exciting plans

with our fans and local paranormal investigators.

we've come to the fanboy expo in knoxville, tennessee,

to announce our new endeavor to the world.

What have you guys been up to lately?

When we started 20 years ago,

our organization was a regional group.

Now we're going global.

That's why steve and I created a larger umbrella group,

united paranormal research organization.

That's awesome. We've got these groups

that we're networked with all over the world

that are working together

to help benefit the field of paranormal and move it forward.

Here we go with our first question.

I'm curious what's more satisfying to you --

is if you're able to debunk everything

or if there actually is something strange?

I don't think we have a preference either way

if we find something or we don't.

And that's what it's all about is getting out there

and helping out people who are scared in their own home.

And so that's more satisfying than anything.

- hi, guys. - Hi.

My name is jessica. I'm with a paranormal group.

So we have a case.

It's about 45 minutes away from here.

- Mm-hmm. - It's a haunted farmland.

The owners there have seen about four

full-bodied apparitions.

and so we're kind of in over our heads a little bit

because we are amateurs.

Is there anything you guys would suggest

or anything you could do?

We looking for just advice, or help, or...?

You know, we'll take anything you can give us.

How about after we're done here,

we'll have you meet us back there

and we can we can try to discuss how to go further with it?

Okay.

Jessica's case is intriguing.

Seeing an apparition can be a terrifying experience,

but this family has seen four.

That is some serious activity.

Guys, this is jess from the q&a.

- Jess. - She had a question for you.

Thank you all for talking with me

about this case because this family

really need our help. Okay.

One of the homeowners -- he's a military veteran.

He has some ptsd.

Anything that's sudden and unexpected

can be upsetting to him.

Are they scared to be in their home?

They have an rv that they have on the property,

and so a lot of times they're staying out in the rv

as opposed to being in the home. Oh, really?

- Yeah. - All because of the activity?

Yes. We're definitely game to come out

and talk with the family.

That would be amazing. Thanks, guys.

All right.

After hearing about jessica's case

at the fanboy expo a few days ago,

we made plans to meet her just outside of knoxville

in the tiny town of white pine, tennessee.

oh, there she is.

- Hey, guys. - Hey, jess.

So glad y'all got to come out.

Hey, well, that's what we're here for.

We're here to help out.

Well, I brought you guys here today

because this is actually sartain springs park.

The sartain family was really prominent

in the history of white pine.

So why were they so influential?

Were they wealthy? Not necessarily wealthy.

They're just all over this area.

Do you think any of this haunting

has anything to do with that family?

I think it's definitely possible

because the house was actually built by the sartain family

and the sartains lived in that house

during your last investigation,

what did you uncover?

We were sitting upstairs on the landing,

and we actually caught a remote-control car

that they have moving several times.

- Oh. - Oh.

- That's creepy as hell. - Yeah, man.

and there's no remote control for that toy?

No, brittany and cory say that they've lost it

or thrown it out.

Well, I'd like to get over and talk with brittany and cory.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

What can you tell us about this area?

We're a small town, so we have the mall. I like shopping.

We're actually getting some more restaurants.

- I like eating. - There's some nice parks.

I love hiking.

Do you have crazy animals around here?

Raccoons.

Those crazy raccoons.

"you got any crazy animals around here?

"you ever hear of raccoons?"

well, yeah, we heard...

we have them in new England, too, yeah.

Yeah, they go through our garbage, too.

Like...

so this is all the homeowners' land here?

Yes, it is.

The homeowners have over 40 acres of land

and a lot of animals.

They also have a lot of paranormal activity

that is making one of the homeowners,

who is a veteran, feel unsafe in his own house.

I wonder if it's possible the sartains could be behind

the disturbances that have this family on edge.

- Hey. How are you? - Hey, guys.

Come on in.

Jess has been telling us about the activity

you all have been experiencing here.

We're out here hoping that we can help.

We've had a difficult time.

We really appreciate y'all coming.

I'm diagnosed with ptsd.

Dealing with the unexpected is one of my triggers.

Like, I don't like being here by myself.

My dream as a little girl

was always to own an old, old house.

But this place was too good to be true.

When I decided to move in with my son, frank,

we felt like there was constantly eyes

watching both of us.

And then things started waking me up

in the middle of the night.

the previous owners,

emmett sartain and his wife, ida,

passed away in this house.

I met cory about eight months after I moved in.

We had gotten married.

After that, I moved in with my two kids,

maddison and gavin.

I did not tell cory about what was going on

with the house.

I didn't want to scare him.

But the activity really escalated

after he moved in.

In the kitchen, we've had a lot of activity.

I've heard what sounds like the front door opening

and somebody saying, "brittany,"

just turn around and there's no one there.

I was in the pantry digging around.

One of the toys started saying, "hey, hey, hey."

hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

Went back about my business in the pantry.

Then it started saying the number seven

over and over and over.

Seven, seven, seven, seven.

On the staircase, there's a lot of activity.

I saw an apparition of a woman

walking up the stairs.

She had dark hair

poking out from underneath a bonnet.

One time when I was on the stairs,

I seen a little african-american boy.

And he was looking over the railing.

It scared the piss out of me.

On the upstairs level and frank's room,

frank claims that there's a little boy

who likes to stay in his closet.
