- We haven't seen Jackson in over a year.
His friends said he went to that old hotel
to look for a souvenir or something.
That was the last time anybody ever heard from him.
Every time we're about to let go, something happens,
something
strange,
and it just rips our hearts out.
It started with text messages,
randomly in the middle of the night.
I told the police and they looked into it
and they found...
They found they were coming from inside the hotel.
My husband watched the video of Jackson lost inside
the hotel but I can't bring myself to sit through it.
I know he used his phone to try and get help.
Phone calls and video messages
and texts.
If you get this message,
please send help to the Abaddon Hotel.
I can't, there's no way out.
I saw them all.
They're all here.
They're all still here.
Please, somebody hear me!
Somebody!
They want me to go with them.
They want me to go with them.
Please!
Please, someone help.
They have no eyes.
No one's coming for me.
I'm sorry I ever came here.
I don't know where they all came from.
They're all in the dining room.
They're all in Hell.
They're all with him.
Mom, I'm sorry...
- About two weeks later I got an email
from Jackson's account,
I didn't wanna open it.
I mean, I knew it couldn't be from him, right?
I opened it.
And I watched the video.
Oh, my God.
God, I wish I hadn't.
It was an empty room
and then I could hear Jackson's screams.
And there was something else,
there was this piano playing somewhere
and I knew immediately I'd heard that tune before.
It was so familiar.
Please!
Please, somebody!
Somebody help me!
Please!
- We've heard that piano tune before
in the Hell House documentary,
but when the Mallet's say that they've heard it,
they're referring to long before Hell House.
- Orca. - Go Fish.
Anyone got an orca?
- I got one. - I got an orca.
- Orca. - Okay, thank you.
- Hey, I saw you, you're cheating!
- I'm not cheating! - Hey, hey, hey.
- Mom! - Mom, are you getting this?
- Guys, calm down, Jackson's asleep, come on.
- Oh, my God. - So unfair.
Play nicely, come on.
- Got a fish? - Got a crab?
Carlie, do you have a crab?
Hey guys, do you hear that?
Where's that coming from?
- Jackson, I thought you were in bed.
- The hotel opens in 2009, tell everyone.
What, what hotel?
- Who turned out the lights?
- Hey, Jackson, are you okay?
Yeah.
- Are you sure, what were you talking about?
- Nothing, I didn't say anything.
Later on, and I played it back
with my husband, we heard it.
There's another voice in that room.
It's almost,
almost like it could hear my question
and was telling Jackson what to say.
- Who turned out the lights?
The Abaddon Hotel.
- This hotel has a long history of eerie
and unexplained events being caught on camera.
Even our own cameras weren't immune to catching something
spooky when we rehearsed this very segment.
Okay, am I close in enough?
How's my frame?
Good?
Gary, what?
It's been two years since the controversial release
of the Hell House documentary
and many of us still have questions.
The biggest question on everyone's mind,
was it real or was it an elaborate hoax
planned by the documentarians to sell the film?
Here today we have a full panel to discuss this question.
Arnold Tasselman, who worked for the Rockland County
Magistrate's Office at the time of the Hell House incident
seven years ago and Mitchell Cavanaugh,
the Mitchell Cavanaugh from the documentary,
allegedly the only surviving member of the film.
We'll get into that.
And lastly, we have Brock Davies, a medium and psychic
who you may know from his work on several
missing persons cases that gained nation-wide attention.
Thanks for having me on, Suzy.
Somehow I knew you'd call.
Be sure to check out Brock Davies From Beyond,
coming next fall to-- - Thank you, Brock.
So, why don't we start-- - Suzy, do you mind
if I start with a comment and a question?
- Sure. - Thanks.
You're a dick.
Comment, and my question is, why?
Look at this. - Camera's up.
Who is that?
- That's Mitchell Cavanaugh from the Hell House documentary.
That's who we need to get us into the Abaddon.
- Well, from what we saw, getting in isn't the problem,
it's finding our way to the basement
and finding our way out. - Well, exactly.
He edited all the Hell House footage,
he must know the hotel inside out.
Maybe.
- Arnold here has served me with a lawsuit
trying to get my film off the market so no one can see it.
Mr. Tasselman,
can you discuss the lawsuit against Mitchell?
- I'm not able to discuss details about pending litigation
but what I can tell you is that his fake movie
has caused harm to the town of Abaddon.
- Cold cases in old hotels is not really our thing,
we put a state Senator in jail!
Yeah, and that was a really good thing
but now they're saying this place is haunted.
- Oh, come on, Molly, don't tell me you believe in ghosts.
Look, we're going to the Abaddon, that's final.
You two track down Mitchell today
and get him to meet me.
- Got ya. - What are you doing?
I'm calling into this show.
This guy is such a fucking liar.
Hell House was a tragedy
and we still mourn the loss of life.
What I'm talking about is faking everything about
the hotel's owner, the supposed Hell House tapes.
Putting that quack author Robert Lyons on camera,
faking a full scene with your own crew
in a room where you knew that people--
- You're talking about Diane Graves,
the missing documentarian who was last seen
on her own video inside the hotel.
- That is exactly what I am talking about.
Excuse me, Diane is dead.
Okay, Johnathan is dead.
They died inside that hotel.
- Can we not use that word? - I'm sorry.
- Please, everyone knows that no one died
outside of the Halloween malfunction.
- You're still going with malfunction,
like a prop fell from the ceiling and killed 15 people?
- I'd actually like to jump in on that point.
I, too, would like to know how the police
arrived at calling it a malfunction?
- The details of that night are still not allowed
to be discussed publicly. - Of course.
- But, from everything that I've seen,
I can guarantee the public that the hotel is safe
and is not responsible in any way for the tragedy
nor anything else that people are alleging happened since.
- If it's so safe, why does the town keep
police cars outside at all times,
making sure no one goes in?
- We were here like yesterday
while you guys were off filming that goofy TV thing
and we deduced that there was a 10 minute window
and we can get it.
Badass, right? - Why do they guard it so much
if they're saying there's nothing wrong with it?
- Yeah, man, like-- - Well, it's not just
the Hell House incident or Diane, there are also
two teenagers from the nearby area that have disappeared.
- And people think that has something to do with the hotel?
- Well, of course anything could have happened to them
but, one poor kid streamed himself on Facebook
while breaking in and it was the last time he was ever seen.
- Are you serious, when did that happen?
- I mean, I'm sure Jessica knows all of this.
- Dude, she doesn't even believe in ghosts.
- Neither did Diane. - I'd like to point out,
