00:00Lola, are you happy right now?
00:03I see things, and I'm very visual, and I'll predict things.
00:06I'll also have connections with the other side.
00:08I'll have spirits of loved ones come to me.
00:11What the is that?
00:14I'm Kelsey Davies, and I'm a psychic, clairvoyant,
00:17and content creator for a living.
00:22So I've started drawing entities and ghosts that I see
00:25or visions that I get.
00:27This one was from, like, a prison that I kept seeing in a cafeteria.
00:32And then I'll get names, and I'll get how they died
00:35or things that they say I'll write down.
00:39When I was younger, I was terrified of ghosts.
00:42That was actually my biggest fear was the paranormal,
00:45which is kind of weird saying that now with everything that I do.
00:49Just a spooky queen. It's fine.
00:51When I was a little kid, I would experience a lot of things
00:54that people didn't really understand,
00:55so this is around the time that I realized I was seeing things
00:58that other people didn't.
01:00So I would see this man constantly,
01:02and he would be, like, peeking around the corner,
01:04or I would see him behind me and turn around.
01:06He would be gone.
01:08But it was a man with a brown suit,
01:10and he had these big glasses and a silver watch,
01:12and I always wondered who he was.
01:14He scared me. It really freaked me out.
01:16I would have nightmares and dreams of entities visiting me as a child,
01:21and I would call my mom into the room and tell her about it,
01:24and she'd be like, it's just a dream.
01:25You know, you're fine, right?
01:27She's more of, like, ignorance is bliss.
01:29Later, we found out that the man that I would see was my great-grandfather,
01:33who was my grandpa's dad who died before my mom was born,
01:37and I actually pointed him out in a photo and asked my cousin who he was,
01:41and he had the big glasses, the silver watch.
01:44He owned a brown suit, which I did ask my grandfather about,
01:48and then I found out that these gifts or this spiritual connection
01:52runs really deep on his side of the family.
01:55Let's see what the full moon is bringing.
02:02Ooh, new perspective.
02:05To me, a psychic is someone who is able to tap into
02:09different eras in time and different energies
02:12so that they're able to, you know, predict the future
02:14or tap into different frequencies in general.
02:17Someone who's a medium is someone who connects
02:19with the spiritual realm with the living,
02:21so they're able to kind of be like a bridge in between both.
02:25I label myself as a clairvoyant because I'm very visual,
02:28so I'm able to see things in my mind's eye as well as physically.
02:32The things I do to help enhance my abilities is just really focusing on myself
02:37and focus on healing, anything, doing a lot of shadow work.
02:41That's something that really helped me open it up
02:43because we're all spirit having a human experience,
02:45so anyone's able to open up that side of themselves or open up the third eye.
02:50There's a lot of different ways that you can open it up.
02:53It's just a matter of if you want to or if you feel called to.
02:57Daily routines, meditation.
02:59For me, a lot of plant medicine and things like that really, really helped me just understand
03:05everything and all that there is.
03:07There's just so much to it and it's really, really beautiful.
03:10Pulling out to Lola if Lola wants to come through.
03:18She said, I want to play.
03:21Lola is my haunted doll.
03:22She's a vessel for a spirit of a woman who was 18 years old when she passed away.
03:27She was born in 1901 and passed in 1919 around the Spanish flu pandemic.
03:33She's not evil.
03:34She's not, you know, something scary.
03:37She's just this sweet, you know, 18 year old girl who tragically passed before her.
03:44Sorry.
03:45She's like right there.
03:47She's super tall and she has like this white nightgown on.
03:51She's like kind of talking to me.
03:54Sorry.
03:56Lola, can you point to where you are right now?
03:58I think she's right.
03:59Are you by the stairs?
04:08I think I've had Lola's doll about four years and I've started making content with her.
04:13People just absolutely love her, love her energy.
04:16And it's been crazy because even Drew was a skeptic before he started dating me, of course.
04:22How do you want me to make her leave?
04:25There was one time he walked by my room and he saw Lola standing in there.
04:31And he comes up to me and he's like, is she like really tall?
04:34I was like, yeah.
04:36And does she have like curly, really dark, long hair?
04:39Yeah.
04:40He's like, I think I just saw Lola standing in your room.
04:43And don't have her peek in until like the last second.
04:47Like, did you just fall?
04:48And then she peeks in.
04:50The dumber the better.
04:51So when I first started making content, I didn't really understand my gifts or my spiritual connectiveness.
04:57So then I started visiting haunted locations around the world and just really realizing like even when I watch old
05:03videos of myself, I'll be like, oh my God, I just saw something there.
05:07I just saw something there.
05:08And I thought it was so normal.
05:10I thought everyone would see these things.
05:11But then I come to find out a lot of people are very blocked off to it.
05:16So they didn't see them as well.
05:17So I was sitting there like experiencing all these things, not realizing that I was just very, very spiritually connected.
05:24Per video for long form, I make around $1,000 and up.
05:28So for an hour long video that accumulated 1.2 million views, I made around $12,800.
05:36But on a good month, I'll have like three different brand deals and they can pay anywhere from $3,000
05:41and up.
05:42So today I'm bringing you guys with me to a super haunted location in my area where the ghost of
05:47a little girl actually came to my apartment and led me to this place.
05:51She was banging on my walls telling me that she got stuck somewhere and then we ended up finding the
05:57location she was from.
05:58And it aligned with the hauntings that they had, which was really, really cool.
06:02So I'm going to bring you guys on a paranormal investigation.
06:05Was there a full moon last night?
06:06Yeah.
06:07Mmm.
06:08Okay.
06:09Might be spicy today then.
06:15We're here at the Bunker Experience in Pasadena where we're about to explore the catacombs
06:19and see if we can catch anything paranormal on camera.
06:22Let's go.
06:23It gets so heavy back here.
06:25Every time I walk back here, it's always heavy.
06:28So this is like an ovulus type app.
06:30It's called Necrometer and basically spirits use it to come up with words.
06:36And we've gotten a lot of really fascinating responses with it.
06:40I just heard a little girl.
06:41Oh, you did?
06:42She was like, nah.
06:44Oh yeah, this is where we were getting all those responses.
06:47I am French.
06:48I am a friend.
06:50Me and the staff often feel when we go in here, we get short of breath.
06:54It's hard to breathe in there.
06:55Yeah.
06:55It's just heavy.
06:56There might be some lost souls.
06:58So we have this little bell.
06:59It has something with electromagnetic frequency.
07:01So when there's a spike, it will ring.
07:04So we're going to put this out, see if it rings.
07:08I'm just going to connect and see if anyone wants to come forward.
07:16Someone was mentioning something about the mice.
07:20What about the mice?
07:22What does that mean?
07:26I heard feet and I've gotten that last time.
07:30Like I got foot last time.
07:31Can I get your name?
07:36Can I get your name?
07:40I feel something.
07:42Whoa.
07:45I was going to say I feel something right here and then that went off.
07:51Who's right here that I feel?
07:58Sometimes it'll be sporadic like that because it's all energy.
08:01So it's just coming and going.
08:04Thanks for staying.
08:05Thanks for staying.
08:08Is there anyone with the catacombs that wants to come forward and tell us anything?
08:21Help.
08:23How many were killed down there?
08:25I said like run.
08:34What the is that?
08:39We didn't run.
08:44I'm all scared.
08:46Thank you for showing us you're here.
08:49Just know you're not allowed to touch any of us.
08:52You're bound to this place.
08:54You're not allowed to follow us.
08:57We're all protected.
08:59But thank you for coming forward.
09:03So this place is haunted.
09:08Ghosts are real.
09:09There's a lot of skepticism when it comes to making content about the paranormal and I've experienced a lot of
09:15hatred.
09:15A lot of just people that don't understand it.
09:18But I've just learned to kind of ignore the hate and just to keep going with my path because it
09:23is helping a lot more people than it is making other people upset.
09:26As far as no one ran.
09:29You guys are brave.
09:31I just hope that sharing my gifts and my experiences will help other people out there.
09:36If you're experiencing these things just let you know you're not crazy.
09:40These things happen and there is a community for you out there.
09:43I think it's really cool when they do stuff like that because it's just something you can't really debunk.
09:49Like no one was near a barrel.
09:51It's like right here.
09:53For anyone out there that wants to start making content and making a living off of it, I recommend just
09:59consistency, staying true to yourself.
10:02You're building a whole community here.
10:03So just make sure you prioritize that.
10:06And the most important thing is never give up.
10:09No matter what anyone tells you, do not stop.
10:13Lola, are you happy right now?
10:16Can you cross the rods for yes?
10:17Open for no.
