Ghost Adventures: Screaming Room - First Season

There are little-kid handprints on the glass.

Woman: That one wasn't there before.

Didn't they say the titanic was unsinkable, too, or something?

Aaron: Yep. Not by mother nature.

Do you think that this museum is haunted by spirits?

I would definitely say that we're not alone.

Zak: Oh, he just went through the window!

- It went through the window? - Right through the window.

Boxes of candy, maybe.

Oh, my god. That tripped me out.

Zak: We have seen things that defy explanation,

Experiencing the best...

God, that was awesome, dude.

That was so awesome. Absolutely, man.

...And worst...

These dolls are gonna **** take our souls.

...Of the places between worlds.

I want the portal to this forest wide open.

Zak: Now it's time to look back.

One of my scariest nightmares that we are about to relive.

For the first time ever,

I'm inviting you, the audience, into my inner sanctum.

Together, we will pull back the curtain back on the biggest,

Scariest, and funniest moments from our investigations.

I'm zak bagans,

And this is "ghost adventures -- screaming room."

All right. You guys ready for this one?

I'll give you a hint.

Iceberg.

- Oh, titanic? - What else could it be?

Roll it!

That's a fun town.

Through the years of our ghost adventures,

We've investigated some real iconic locations.

I'm scared.

But I don't think any of them can compare

To the titanic size of our next location.

Ladies and gentleman, we are investigating the rms titanic...

Museum in branson, missouri.

Dude, look at that museum. It was so impressive.

Like, if someone knocked you out and took you on the ship

And you woke up, you would think you're on the ship.

yeah, you would.

You won't even know you're in a museum.

Zak: On April 10th, 1912,

The rms titanic embarked on its transatlantic maiden voyage

From south hampton, England to new york city,

Ultimately carrying 2,208 passengers onboard.

There's something about the titanic that, like,

Is just so sad about, obviously, what happened to all the people,

But it's just so fascinating to keep talking about the titanic,

Not just because of the loss of life

But because of the historical significance

Of that boat, you know?

Zak: After four calm days at sea, on the night of April 14th,

The ship struck a massive iceberg,

Resulting in one of the greatest tragedies ever written

In our collective history.

Aaron: Oh, the ice wall!

Zak: You know, I did this take like ten times...

our fingers were ice-cold.

...And, like, my hand was just, like, frozen.

Zak: Yet the memory of this event still lives on today.

In 2006, the titanic museum in branson, missouri

Opened its doors as home to one of the largest collections

From that fateful voyage.

Didn't they say the titanic was unsinkable, too, or something?

Aaron: Yep. Not by mother nature.

True.

I really liked all the artifacts in this place.

Do you know I have a titanic artifact?

- You do? - Yep.

Recently, I got -- captain john smith,

I got his mirror. Billy: Oh, wow.

Jay: It's such a cool story to it.

Yep, it's a haunted mirror, and his housekeeper

Had unpaid wages, and while he died at sea,

The family let her pick one thing from his flat,

And she picked his silver, gilded mirror,

And she said that she would see his face

On the anniversary of the sinking.

Hello! Ooh!

Why doesn't everybody do that when I walk into the room?

Well, this is first class.

Oh, okay.

So we just walked into the titanic.

Yes.

Do you think, by recreating this, there are specific people

That are haunting the titanic museum?

I personally do.

Welcome to the grand staircase.

Holy cow.

Dude, that staircase.

Not only was it amazing, but at the same time,

How many times did we have to walk up and down it?

dude, I was so sore after this shoot.

I think the reason why this place was so haunted

Is because they just recreated it.

Yeah, the spirits there think they're on the ship.

I just think that's really cool.

It's really one of the coolest museums to go to

Just 'cause you walk into the ship.

Is this where you saw an apparition? Yes.

Okay, who was the apparition?

Who I believe it was, was john jacob astor.

He was the richest man onboard titanic.

He was 47.

His new wife was 18.

On the honeymoon, she finds out she's gonna have a baby.

Did she survive?

She survived.

Why wouldn't he have survived, as well?

Everybody thinks money can get you anything.

Jay: The chaos of that moment, you know, like, everyone, like,

Scrambling, trying to get in lifeboats.

I couldn't even imagine what that must have been like.

John jacob astor --

He asked if he could board with her in her delicate condition.

Why would they refuse that?

They just refused.

They said, "women and children only."

So money can't always buy you your life.

Well, that time it didn't.

Aaron: Wow. Look at that.

Zak: John jacob astor --

He is the prominent apparition

That you believe haunts the staircase?

I believe that because I've seen him, more than one occasion,

And it's always right there.

Right there at the top of the stairs, and the reason

I think it's him is because right there, at the top,

We have recreated exactly the bedroom

That he stayed in on the titanic.

I believe that you telling this story --

That is the reason why you are seeing

His apparition on this staircase.

Do any of your customers ever get emotional?

Yes, we've had people just in hysterics in here,

Just crying uncontrollably...

Why? ...Because they said, "I hear screaming."

One of the reasons why there were so many spirits here --

Not only are they recreating parts of the ship,

But they're telling the stories of these people

Every single day.

They're keeping that alive.

Yeah, and with the emotions of all the people

On the tours, too, that's attracting their spirits.

Aaron: Yep.

Zak: Next, we're shown another room in the museum,

Which also seems to be drawing on energy from the titanic.

Jamie: This is the musicians' gallery.

So, that scene in titanic where everybody's in chaos,

And everybody's just running for their lives

To get that spot on a lifeboat,

And those musicians are just sitting there.

They looked at their fate and they said, "you know what?

We're gonna go out doing what we love."

Jay, why didn't you do a little jam session

For us in the music room?

Aaron: Yeah, you should have, dude.

I didn't want to scare away the ghosts.

You know, a real professional

Would have brought their own piano.

That's true.

Zak: As I'm standing here, it's very eerie.

Every single one of these eight faces of these band members

Are staring at me.

I'll be honest with you.

I haven't felt anything since I've been here,

But I feel something here right now.

Do you feel this? Come here and feel this.

This is what I like to do --

Is when I feel something, I like having whoever's with me

To come in there and validate what I'm feeling.

Yeah.

You've got two different people validating what I was feeling.

And it's crazy how it's just in a circle, so you have to --

You walk into it, and everyone's blown away

As soon as they feel that, all the time.

You just never know when it's gonna happen.

And, you know, when we go there doing interviews,

We're talking about these people.

That's what draws them in. Yeah.

You talk about them, it's like calling them on the phone.

I love how we just go straight

And try to get evidence during interviews now.

It's so amazing.

You got to go with it as soon as you feel it.

You have to.

You don't want to talk to us?

Zak: So alexis takes us to another room

Where evidence of childlike activity has occurred.

This part here was so crazy --

Tripped me out.

Woman: And I cleaned all of these windows

Like I do every single night.

So, I went to the other side -- that's the promenade deck.

That's the only room where I feel genuinely creeped out.

And there were two kid's handprints on the window.

And I tried to clean them, but they were on the other side
