10:02back room
10:03here we go
10:06where our witness Lorraine has gathered more guides and visitors
10:09who all say they've had strange experiences on spike island
10:13thank y'all so much for meeting with us
10:15we understand that y'all have a lot of stories and we'd love to hear them
10:19and Lorraine great to see you again
10:21and you too
10:22did you leave spike and did it live up to its name?
10:24yeah
10:25for sure
10:26that's one way to put it
10:27but there's so much to explore out there
10:29there's so much
10:30have you been down to the abandoned village yet?
10:32what's the abandoned village?
10:34the abandoned village was built 1820
10:36it was built to house the families of the married officers up in the fort
10:40people have seen shadows, figures
10:42it's quite intense down there
10:44why do you think that is?
10:45there was a particular house there
10:47it's not there anymore
10:48one night there was two soldiers on duty
10:51in that house
10:53when their relief came down to get them the next morning
10:56they couldn't get into the house
10:58it was locked from the inside
11:00break down the door
11:02so they broke down the door of the house
11:05the two soldiers were sitting there across from each other
11:08their throats were cut
11:10ear to ear
11:12both dead and the room locked from the inside
11:14inside yeah
11:15oh my word
11:24these two soldiers that had their throats slit
11:27do we know who did it and why?
11:29they don't know
11:30they don't know
11:31but it really really unnerved the villagers
11:34they'd order the house to be knocked down
11:36and nothing to be built in the spot after it
11:38and where was that house?
11:39just down on the shoreline
11:41by the stone wall
11:42are there any other stories down in the village?
11:44yeah there's a house down there
11:46it's known as the doctor's house
11:47in the 1800s
11:49there was a doctor
11:50who was colloquially known as doctor death
11:52at that time it was popular to carry out autopsies
11:56because they wanted to discover what was different
11:58between the criminal mind
11:59and the ordinary mind
12:01this doctor death
12:03apparently he would carry out these experiments
12:06the convict cemetery was located on the western side of the island
12:09when the convicts were excavated there a few years ago
12:12they were found a part of their skulls missing
12:15and also some of their skulls had been severed from their heads
12:18a lot of times when we're leaving the island
12:21the boat crew will tell us
12:22that they can see a figure walking past that house
12:24so we have to check if we haven't left a visitor behind
12:27and always we never find anyone
12:29okay, doctor death
12:31all right
12:32this village is sounding better and better
12:34are there any other places we should investigate?
12:36I've had many experiences down in these places called the tunnels
12:39they're underneath Bashian 3
12:41you worked out there or work out there?
12:43I'm a tour guide out there
12:44during our night tours
12:45I feel anxious even just before I walk into them
12:48me and Marion were doing work one day
12:50and they're at a constant 52 degrees Fahrenheit
12:53they used to store gunpowder down there
12:55so if gunpowder gets wet it's no use
12:57and I suddenly got ice cold to see my breath
13:00like chattering teat
13:01and Marion realised she could see her breath as well
13:03out of nowhere?
13:04out of nowhere
13:05out of nowhere just dropped
13:06and I suddenly heard a man with heavy boots running at us
13:09and we could hear it getting closer and closer
13:12we started running
13:13and the minute we got to the doors stopped
13:15like you were being chased?
13:16we were being chased out there
13:17out of the tunnels?
13:18out of the tunnels, yeah
13:19so it does seem like the feeling in that tunnels is that you're not welcome
13:23yeah
13:24wow, okay
13:25thanks everybody for meeting with us
13:26I think it's been really helpful
13:28yeah, I've decided not to go back
13:30no, I have to go?
13:31yes
13:32okay, sorry, I'm going back to the island
13:34our witnesses have left us with plenty of new leads
13:37and as many new questions
13:39about what could be haunting Spike Island
13:42alright, back to Spike Island
13:44back to Spike
13:45Heather and I say a reluctant goodbye
13:47to our taste of Irish freedom

14:00let's tie up, grab our gear and get into it
14:04copy that
14:05all the stories we've heard about the abandoned village
14:10seem to trace to one spot
14:12Dr. Death's house
14:14which sits directly in front of the now empty lot
14:17where two soldiers once had their throats slit
14:20we head there to see if we can experience the strange sounds
14:25and shadow figures that have been reported
14:28so we've got some structures here
14:32wow
14:33a lot of overgrown structures
14:36is this a way in?

16:31I heard that
16:34I mean this place is
16:35falling in on itself
16:37so it might just be two people
16:38in a creaky old house
16:39I know I heard something in here
16:41okay, so let's focus on this area
16:43yeah, let's do a spirit box session

17:06This is my jam.
17:14This is Heather and Gates.
17:16You can use this device to communicate.
17:19We are in Dr. Death's house.
17:22We're trying to understand
17:24what happened on Spike Island,
17:27what happened in this abandoned village.
17:31Is there anyone here with us right now?
17:36Say hi?
17:38Yeah.
17:40Hi.
17:42What's your name?
17:46Are you the doctor who lived in this house?
17:51No.
17:56Were you a guard?
18:01Were you a soldier?
18:04Yes.
18:06Help.
18:13I said help.
18:14Yeah.
18:16What do you need help with?
18:19Pain.
18:22Why are you in pain?
18:28That said evil.
18:29That just said evil.
18:32Go back.
18:34Go back.
18:35Go back where?
18:42Did you hear that right?
18:43Yeah.
18:49What is that noise?
18:50I don't know.
18:52Rain?
18:55That doesn't sound like rain.
18:56It sounds like something else.
19:03I agree.
19:10Let's go.
19:11Let's go outside.
19:11Come on.
19:17Hello?
19:18Where's that window?
19:20That's here.
19:27Board it up.
19:29Right?
19:30This is the window outside that room.
19:32Yeah.
19:34But look where we are.
19:36Back of the house.
19:37Maybe go back was go to the back.
19:40Where those soldiers died.
19:42Right.
19:42This is where that house was.
19:44Where these two guys had their throats slit.
19:46The villagers were so scared of it.
19:48They tore the house down.
19:50Okay.
19:50So let's go back.
19:51Okay.
19:55Look at this place.
19:57It is just totally overgrown.
19:59This is crazy.
20:05This is an open plot of land here.
20:08So that house they tore down must have been here, behind the doctor's house.
20:12Let's explore this whole plot and see what we can find.
20:15It feels like the biggest thing in this village are these shadow figures.
20:18So keep your eyes open for shadows.
20:20That's what everybody sees down here.
20:22Okay.
20:22Be careful.
20:23Okay.
20:23Come on.
20:23Let's go.
20:29It looks like an old stone wall.
20:34Look at that.
20:35So this must be the back of the property.
20:41What?
20:42Over there.
20:43I just heard it rustling.
20:47Where?
20:52Hello?
20:56Somebody back here?
20:59Someone or something is moving back here.
21:13I can hear it.
21:17It's coming from both directions.
21:23Is there somebody here with us?
21:29Did you make that noise outside the house?
21:33Did you lead us out here?
21:36If that was you, would you make that noise again?
21:40We know that there used to be a house here.
21:45It was torn down.
21:48Are you the soldiers who died in the house?
21:51What the f*** is that?
22:00I don't know.
22:01You heard that?
22:02I heard that.
22:03That sounds like metal.
22:04That sounded like metal.
22:04That sounded like metal.
22:06Like metal scraping.
22:07That's all right.
22:14Oh!
22:16Who's there?
22:18What the hell is going on here?
22:20Is somebody here?
22:27We are hearing something all around us.
22:29do you see anything no no
22:36whatever's here it feels like it doesn't want to show itself it does feel like that and do you
22:44see what's happening here we are just being run in circles yeah yeah right we hear it over there
22:49we run over there we hear it over here we run over here i do think we have a lot of this island
22:54left to explore though and we still have to check out the tunnels i think we should get a couple of
22:58infrared cameras and run them out to this part of the property at least we can leave those running
23:03maybe we get lucky yeah i got the heebie-jeebies let's start walking back okay
23:08before we leave we set up two security cameras behind dr death's house hoping to catch the source
23:20of the sounds we heard then we return to the prison eager to investigate the tunnels located beneath
23:26its ramparts that are said to be rife with paranormal activity back inside the prison walls comforting
23:33remember the first night we were on the other side of all this down in the moat and that's where we
23:37felt like something led us into that tunnel that was bricked up and we now know from our eyewitnesses
23:43in town you can get into this tunnel system from this side of the ramparts that looks like a way
23:49into a tunnel doesn't it sure
23:51yep
23:56look at that okay so these tunnels because they were used to store gunpowder are kept at a constant
24:08temperature i want to use a digital thermometer measure those temperatures see if we can record
24:13any of those temperature drops our one witness amy said that it got frigid in here like in a heartbeat
24:19and i want to use the k2 meter because when we were down in that moat we were getting tons of emf hits
24:24this tunnel has to connect to that dead end we were at down there right so you ready ready into the tunnels
24:31whoa look at this it's so creepy this must run under the whole fort i think you're right
24:50i mean this just goes on and on the walls just keep getting tighter
24:57it's so oppressive let's keep going deeper
25:01oh look at that that must be the top of the ramparts up there some sort of ventilation shaft
25:12that blocked tunnel that we couldn't get through that must come into this area for sure k2
25:18nothing nothing okay well it was super active on that side of the wall so keep a very close eye on
25:25this place is so spooky
25:35temperature is 59.5 it's stable so the witnesses are right the temperature is constant in the tunnels
25:46big spikes right here
25:53you got a spike oh big big big spike look at that
25:56okay we gotta hit

28:38yeah
28:3851 degrees
28:41look at this
28:4250.9
28:43it's getting colder

28:45yeah
28:4549
28:4748
28:4847
28:49what the
28:52what is happening
28:54look at this
28:5645
28:5744
28:5944
29:004 degrees
29:01that is impossible
29:02inside of 30 seconds there's a 20 degree temperature drop and we haven't moved
29:13from this spot
29:14and we keep hearing noises
29:15the ovulus is going off like crazy
29:17what could cause that to drop like that
29:20i know of one thing
29:21i mean
29:23this is exactly what these eyewitnesses described
29:27there is cold air coming from this corridor for sure
29:31yeah
29:32it's a breeze
29:34where is that coming from
29:35what is this
29:40what is this
29:40look at this
29:42look
29:43there is wind
29:45shooting up through this grate
29:47is there another level of tunnels here
29:50look
29:52temperatures back up
29:5350.5
29:54so
29:55if the air that was coming out of here was 44 degrees
29:58it's not now
30:00could this lead out to the ocean
30:03could that have been just a blast of cold air that came up through whatever this is
30:07or could it have been something trying to get our attention
30:09to get us to go down there
30:10i mean does this move
30:13oh it does
30:16oh i think this comes off
30:18okay
30:23it's still like a 15 20 foot drop
30:26we're gonna need a ladder
30:27we're gonna go down there
30:28well
30:28there's a bunch of rooms with a bunch of old equipment
30:30maybe we can find one
30:31for sure
30:32okay
30:32let's look for a ladder
30:33come on
30:33maybe in there
30:38okay
30:39i got one
30:42okay great
30:43good good good
30:44okay

31:03here you hold this
31:04okay
31:05here we go
31:06ready
31:06yeah
31:07okay here goes nothing
31:10okay
31:17okay i'm down
31:18what do you see
31:20there's a passage down here
31:23how far back does it go
31:24wow
31:25it goes way back
31:26it's underneath the tunnel system it looks like
31:29you're not claustrophobic are you
31:32why
31:33you'll see
31:34come on down
31:35okay
31:36okay
31:36look at this look
31:44are you kidding me
31:46no
31:46well
31:47we have to figure out what we've been following through these tunnels
31:50we gotta get in there
31:51okay this is gonna be messy
31:53here we go
31:54okay i'm in
32:01okay
32:02following
32:03it opens up a little bit
32:06look at this
32:13look at how far down this goes
32:15it's way
32:16more extensive than i thought
32:18i can't see the end of it
32:19no you certainly can't
32:21i mean i have no idea how safe it is to be down here either
32:24based off of the crumbling entrance i'm gonna go with not there
32:28i mean the stonework's hundreds of years old so
32:30it's held this long
32:32yeah but there's roots growing through it
32:34that's true
32:35temperature
32:37temperature's 55 so
32:40not nearly as cold as it was up in the tunnel
32:43i've got nothing on the k2 so far
32:46let's try to provoke it
32:49anybody down here
32:51we heard you up in the tunnels
32:58we've seen shadows in the moat
33:01and we felt the temperature drop
33:05are you trying to communicate with us
33:11spike it
33:12spike on the k2
33:14yes
33:14temperature's getting colder
33:1749.8
33:1849.6
33:20is that you
33:23oh no
33:29what the f*** is that
33:32you can hear that right
33:38yeah
33:39it sounds like moaning down there
33:42hello
33:44do you want us to find you
33:48spike
33:50spike yes
33:51let's move towards it
33:52come on
33:52okay
33:52what what what what what what what did you hear
34:05i said footsteps
34:06you heard footsteps
34:08yes
34:09behind you
34:10behind us
34:11in 1925 british explorer percy fawcett became the stuff of legend after he disappeared without a trace
34:27in the amazon while searching for the mythic city he called z but before he vanished forever in the uncharted jungle he spent three years in the confines of spike island from 1903 to 1906
34:41he was stationed at the island's fortress serving as an artillery officer and spike island apparently shaped the rest of fawcett's life solidifying his obsession with the occult
34:53fawcett began conducting seances on the island attempting to communicate with the fortresses many dead after leaving spike his fascination with the unexplained only escalated exploring spiritualism writing for occult publications and motivating his final doomed expedition for the city of z
35:11for the city of z
35:13it seems those spike island ghosts really do get under your skin
35:21this is exactly what those witnesses described
35:25yes they felt like they were chased out of here by something
35:27yes that's what it seemed like it was like heavy footfalls right behind us
35:31yes we've been through that area right
35:33there's nothing there there's nothing there there's no animals there's nothing
35:35nothing nothing it's like it's pushing us out
35:43you hear that again yeah there's that noise again
35:47okay let's move towards
35:53holy
35:55this sucks
36:03oh
36:05hold on i see something ahead
36:07what is it i don't know might be a dead end
36:09slope steeply down here
36:15we're gonna have to slide down
36:17what
36:19uh it's okay i think
36:21here we go
36:25okay i'm down
36:27come on down
36:29okay here i come
36:31yeah
36:33let's see where it goes
36:39i can see grass hanging down
36:43oh it goes up
36:45hold on
36:51Heather look at this
36:53i'm out
36:55come on up
36:57you got it
36:58good
36:59haha
37:01look where we are
37:03we are at the water's edge
37:05we made it
37:06we made it
37:07unbelievable
37:08and we are outside the walls of the prison
37:11okay
37:12this investigation
37:14was one for the books
37:15epic
37:16those footsteps
37:17what was that
37:18what was all of it
37:19the temperature i mean look where we are right
37:21it's 50 degrees
37:22yeah
37:2344
37:24like where did that cold blast come from
37:26i don't know if something was
37:27chasing us out of there
37:28or helping us get out
37:29but either way look
37:30i feel like i'm in the shawshank redemption right now
37:33ah
37:34we escaped from spike island
37:38freedom never felt so good
37:40across three long unforgettable nights confined on spike
37:44we captured a spectrum of stunning evidence
37:47run
37:50what was that
37:51what was that
37:52the paint just fell off the wall
37:54we had the image heather took in the abandoned cells analyzed by photography experts
37:59that is a face
38:00you can see the bridge of the nose the black sockets for eyes
38:04they could find no digital explanation for the apparent face frozen in the glass
38:10and we confirmed no one was physically present
38:13stranger still the face only has dark voids where the eyes should be
38:18matching with reports of the ghost known as the gaunt gunner
38:24but that was far from the only infamous spirit we may have encountered
38:28throughout the investigation we heard multiple unexplained metallic noises
38:32oh you hear it
38:35yeah
38:36after using audio analysis software to compare the sounds
38:39the ones we heard outside the abandoned cells
38:42and behind the house of dr death
38:45were seemingly debunked
38:48being a direct match for the banging of a steel flagpole
38:53most likely naturally carried on the wind from a vessel moored in cork harbor
38:57however
39:00there was another sound identified that would prove much more disturbing
39:05the metallic scrape heard in the punishment block
39:10in the abandoned cells
39:14and then a third time in the tunnels
39:19all were close matches to the sound of chains dragging on concrete
39:23of course that's not something mere wind can do
39:26and even stranger it lines up with the sounds associated
39:30with the notorious spirit of two-time escapee
39:33Henry swears
39:35he was made to wear heavy chains for the rest of his sentence
39:38and there was one more hidden horror to be discovered
39:45after scrutinizing hours of audio recorded during her many call and response sessions in the prison
39:51Heather discovered something terrifying
39:54do you see anything in this room?
39:59cameras are totally clear there's nothing in there with you
40:02Heather identifies the word pain
40:09pain was certainly something that notoriously brutal 19th century prison guard
40:14William Reddy was very familiar with
40:16as were the thousands of Irish inmates tragically held here over the centuries
40:23I've been fortunate or perhaps that should be unfortunate
40:27to investigate many strange places in my long career
40:30and I can safely say few shook me like Spike
40:40which is why as soon as we were off the island for good
40:43we went straight for the ultimate Irish pick-me-up
40:50what do you think one more?
40:52one more?
40:53no?
40:54come on we're just getting started
40:56okay
40:57can we get two more please?
