(00:00):
M H. Welcome everyone to Lifebeyond six feets. I'm Damien from r

(00:45):
KB Paranormal. In this week,I have the all female team Ghost of
the Coast Paranormal Ladies, Welcome toLife beyond six feet. Okay, all
right, So I'm just gonna gokind of down the line, and each
point of you just kind of kindof tell your role on the team.
So Christy, we'll start with you. What's your what's your position on the
team? UM, investigator and Jopherand do whatever. We kind of all

(01:07):
pitch in and do whatever we haveto do. UM. But I saw
her post twenty three minutes after sheput it on Facebook asking if anyone wanted
to join a paranormal team, andI said, I will, And I've
loved every minute of it. I'vealways been fascinated with the paranormal. UM
saw my great grandfather when I wasthirteen after he passed away, and I
think I have seen other things,but not really sure. Um, but

(01:32):
I am honing some skills that Inow realize I had. But I've loved
every minute of it. She's makingmy dream come true. That's awesome when
you're talking about Chrissy. So Christiewhat's your role on the team that Yeah,
sorry, yeah, yeah, I'msorry, and I'm sorry okay.
Oh. I am the founder ofParanormal and um, it's always been a

(01:57):
part of my bucket list too participatein paranormal investigations and so literally one night
I was laying in bed and Isaid, you know, I'm gonna do
this and came up with the nameright there, put it out on Facebook,
and the rest is history. Wellthat's that's awesome. That's definitely a

(02:21):
good way to meet people with commoninterest. So Chris, what about you?
Well, I am also an investigatoron the team. I'm also a
minister with Universal Life Church, soI make sure everybody is protected when we're
out there, especially especially when we'releaving on the location, and make sure
that everyone is staged. I saya little prayer and make sure that nothing

(02:44):
attaches to us or follows us outof any location. Um, I've seen
spirits since I was a little girl. I actually host a ghost in history
tour out I was in the SouthCarolina area, and I'm an author of
three different books regarding the local lareand legends of the Sastrian area. Oh

(03:04):
wow, that's that's pretty awesome.So, um, so, Deborah,
what about you? What's your roleon the team? I'm an investigator and
now when'd you kind of get arrestedin the paranormal. I've always known something
was just a little different or specialwith me since I was a child.

(03:28):
But my first real experience I waseleven years old. My great grandfather had
passed away, and hangs visited meone night when I was sleeping in the
bed and he died in Oh wow, I just had a seat there at
the foot of the bed and Icouldn't see where he was sitting, but
I couldn't see him. Oh goodness. But I later learned that my talents

(03:51):
are family owned, right in generationto generation and as much bigger as I
could do. You at am thefifth generation. Oh wow, that's that's
pretty amazing, and so last butnot least, I'm probably gonna mess your
name up LINEA. There we go. So, what's what's your role on

(04:14):
the team? So I believe I'mthe actual first official member on the team
outside of Aaron, and I'm kindof her left hand. Um, I'm
also Chris's counterpart. She kind ofcloses us out at the end of the
night. And I kind of startus off from a riki master. UM,
so for our investigations, I actuallydo do a little raki to kind
of open third eye on everybody andjust kind of make sure that we have
the best possible experience, UM,you know, and also do a little

(04:40):
protection over us prior to going in. UM. I've had some experiences grown
up, and I have the familywho didn't tell me there was no such
thing as ghosts. We had familyhouses that were wanted and you know,
just different things going on. Soit was it was actually encouraged in my
family. Well that's that's awesome.That's unlike most people that I've talked to
on this show. Most people comefrom an ultra religious home and like they're

(05:02):
just not allowed to talk about thiskind of stuff. So so you kind
of had the opposite start. So, So, Aaron, how did you
kind of come up with the nameGhost of the Coast pared No War?
Where did that stem from? Well, I mean we are so we're right
on the on the coast. We'reon in Myrtle Beach, so UM,
and there's so much here in Conwayspecifically, UM, which is about maybe

(05:27):
twenty minutes from Myrtle beach. Um, there's a ton of history, you
know, dating back to the seventeenhundreds. Oh wow, and yeah,
And I was just I was literallyjust playing around with a name. I
was like, Okay, what canbe a good name? And I'm literally
just playing playing around with it.And then it clicked Ghost to the Coast
Paranormal and and I was like Irepeated it maybe five times. Then I

(05:53):
was like, oh, yeah,no, this is good. This sticks
or it rolls. And so that'sthat's really where it came from. There's
just based off the history of thearea and um, you know, being
the location, you know, rightright at the beach. And like I
was telling you guys before we startedrecording, that's what caught my attention was
the name. And I was like, that's a unique name and it stands

(06:15):
out. So it's definitely definitely different. So you said, you guys are
a fairly new team, only aboutfour or five months old. So what
was your very first official investigation?What you got your team put together?
Well, we actually did our verywell our very first official investigation. The
first time we got together, mostof us anyway, it was we had

(06:40):
actually gone down The first time wemet was like a week after everybody joined,
and we actually went down to Chris'stour and took her tour and did
a mini investigation there. We've pulledout our voice recorders, had cameras,
we're taking pictures and stuff like that. Got a couple of meet things while
we were down there. But Ithink our first official official investigation um was

(07:09):
at a property that um that ison the the goal the Goala trail,
right yeah yeah yeah, and umand that that was our first investigation as
a team. Um. And itwas an overnight investigation, and I mean

(07:30):
we got a couple of like aquite a few really good pieces um there.
But and then and then we wentright after that we had another private
residence location. So those were thefirst two official investigations as a team.
All right, So in the inthest five months, how many investigations would

(07:54):
you say you've got under under theramps so far? Well, we've since
day and one really um, notto not to toot or horns or anything,
but we've been booked out just aboutevery weekend. Oh wow since November
nine. Yeah. Now was thatjust with like personal residences or do you
guys do like commercial We've we've actuallydone. UM. I think with any

(08:20):
investigation team, you go in andyou're like, oh, we can do
private residences. You don't really thinkabout businesses. But we've been picking up
a lot of businesses, a lotof UM historical buildings. Some municipalities have
contacted us. And so I meanit's it's it's taking that turn from private

(08:41):
residence to more of commercial. Yeah. Okay, So before this team actually
formed, did any of you fiveladies actually investigate before any of this.
Yes, I have, So you'reyou're the only one that investigated beforehand.
So everybody else was kind of arookie. So yeah, and I've only

(09:01):
done growing up. Like like Isaid, I've always been into the paranormal.
So growing up, I was,you know, I would have the
apps on my phone and I'd pullthem out and be like, oh,
is there anybody here, not reallythinking anything of it. And then as
I got older and got more intoit, I got more into the respect

(09:22):
side of things and UM. Andso I had only done one like true
investigation where you have all the equipmentand stuff like that, prior to forming
this team and UM, and sothat was the only one that I had
had. UM and so it's justit's just yeah, and we've been we've

(09:43):
been busy ever since today. Allright. All right, So to the
other four of you that hadn't donethis before, we'll just kind of go
down the line. How did yourfirst investigation go? Like? How did
how was your experience for that firstinvestigation? Oh? I loved it.
I would loved investigation. They pickon me because I get excited. I

(10:03):
get extremely excited over everything. Myvery first ORB I got was at in
Nicols Ath, Carolina, at thetown hall slash library slash porthouse whatever.
I got my first ORB, andI squilled because I saw it in real
time on my phone and I wasrecording, just taking some pictures, little

(10:26):
recordings, and I squealed, andthey're like, what's one? What's my
what is it? I'm like,look, So I just get excited over
everything. But I and they andI scare easily. They scared. They
try to scare me. Well that'sme too, I'm the I'm the easilyst
the easiest to scare on my teamtoo. So I'm right there with you.
So yes, oh that's good stuff. So Chris, what about you?

(10:50):
How how did your first time go? The first time was interesting because
I knew the location. So thefirst time when we got all together as
a location, I knew very welland so I already knew some of the
things that were going on there.So when they all came to the area,
I already knew a lot of thehistory of what was to go on.

(11:13):
So for me to see them usingequipment, I'm very old fashioned.
I go with pandles, you know. When I was younger, I used
Fiji boards and Tarot cards, allthat kind of thing. But when they
came in with all the equipment,that's what I was like, Well,
these ladies really know their stuff becausetheir equipment, and they were teaching me
and I was still teaching me aboutthe different equipment. So it was very

(11:35):
interesting because I knew what was goingto happen, hopefully, because I knew
the location, and I wanted tosee what they would pick up. And
some of the things they picked up. I was very impressed with what they
got, especially the first time andall of us working together, and it
was an overnight and so I wasvery impressed by what happened that night.
Well that's awesome. It's always goodwhen you have a first good investigations.

(12:00):
So christ sorry, Christy actually gotshushed that night. Yeah, yes,
it was crazy talk. In themorning, everybody had gone to bed and
he had the which we turn itback. So we were sitting there and

(12:22):
everybody did talking, and Aaron wasin a bedroom. She could see the
kitchen, and I decided I wantedto make the peanut butter cemis. I
went into the kitchen and I wasmaking the sandwich. Who I decided stead
of wait until the next morning,I packed up my little band for the

(12:43):
next morning. I was putting theready and the peanut walked up the chip
bag and I put and I putit in the bag, and about that
time, Hud and I stopped andI turned and I little peter around on
both of the corn. She seeksme. I saw her, and she's

(13:05):
just looking. What the hell areyou doing? I thought, and I
called it. Oh, that's awesome, that's awesome. That's awesome. So,
Debor, how did it go foryou for the first time out?
Oh? Man, I was justa little of the cat amazed me and

(13:30):
just watching them interact with us.You know something that you can wrap them
in their seat? Will I will? Yeah? It was awesome and and
emotional arts. You see them interactwith emotional arts and put them off and
on right. I'm extremely amazed bythe little cat boys. That's that's that's

(13:52):
one of my favorite pieces. They'recheap for one, and just to see
them, just to see them gooff when nobody's moving right man, and
going off when you ask them too, that's just that's just amazing to me.
It was like we had we wereat the cemetery one night and I
had put one um on each gradeof the town and we could see them

(14:16):
like they were interacting with each other. They were blinking, then the next
one was blinking, and it wascool to be able to watch it.
They are. It is pretty neatso so so uh, I will say,
no other location within that cemetery,the like motion like that. I

(14:46):
can't hear you girls, No therewe got somewhere. Can you hear it?
Now? Yeah? There we go? Okay, yeah, I know.
The those cat balls were the onlytwo that ordinaling off. Nowhere else
in that cemetery. That's crazy.So um. Last, but not least,

(15:07):
I'm going to keep messing your nameup, Nia, Lenia. That's
what I wanted to say, butI was like, I'm afraid I'm want
to mess it up. Lnia.So how did your first investigation go?
So I am actually going to backup a little bit further and not talk
about the first investigation they're talking to, but they did say the cemetery.
So when we initially got together,before we jumped into a nactual investigation,
we were doing trainings in cemeteries,just you know, to get our barns

(15:31):
and become a little more familiar witheach other and how to operate as a
team. So I'm going to goback to that because that's really what I
think of is our first investigation,even though it was more of a training
rum. But I mean, thatwas amazing. It was it was finding
people who you were just kind ofum realizing you didn't know who have the

(15:52):
same interest and mentioned so well,and having each other's backs and you know,
it can be a scary situation whenyou're in the woods and something you
know, kind of scary happening andcat balls are going off for the first
time in your life. Um,So it was really just kind of a
very impressive experience, you know,meeting these women and having each other's backs

(16:12):
and they're learning to do it alltogether. Um. And and again I
agree with you the cat balls,Like Christie and I always have very good
luck with cat balls together. Andthat night we were having we must have
had a conversation for about forty minuteswith a cat ball, So that was
kind of cool. Magalites are actuallybecoming my new favorite thing. I am.

(16:33):
Me and Chris Christine do well withthe magalites, right. Yeah.
Those those are pretty pretty crazy too. When they'll they'll turn off and on
on command. That's that's pretty intense. So we say, you do commercial,
you do residential? Do you doany of these hey to play type
places? We have not yet,um, but I think our goal probably

(16:57):
my next spring or summer, maybemaybe even next fall. We have a
five year plan. Um, butwe want to do the um the overnight
at the USS North Carolina. Yes, that's on my bucket list too.
Yeah, and that's that's when anhour from here. Nice. Um.

(17:18):
We have talked about, although itwas very briefly, but going to the
Old Health UH Pittsburgh. UM.I think that one would be a cool
there's there's there's so many places thatwe want to go, well me personally
that I want to go that's onmy paranormal bucket list. UM So I
got to hit the lottery first,right. It does get expensive and plus

(17:41):
when you're when you're traveling and stufflike that. But with it being you
know, five six of you gals, that does kind of help, you
know, cut the calf down foreverybody. UM. I will say,
if you guys do come to Tennessee, my recommendation for a place would be
the historic Scott County Jail in Huntsville, Tennessee. UM. My team's been

(18:02):
there twice, been one of themost actually the most active location we've been
to to date. Um we actuallycaptured a picture being flung off the wall.
Wow, air the detotal shit outof us, but it was it
was absolutely amazing and it's it's it'sbeen the most active place we've been to.
Um. So that would be oneI would definitely recommend to you guys.

(18:26):
Um Russian Mountain State Penitentiary is anothergood one in Tennessee. Damien,
I have to tell you, andI think we're gonna have to actually share
this with you because you should hearit. Huh. One of the things
that's a little different about us,we don't do all these locations that have
been done been done. A lotof the things we're doing our brand new
like the Marrying Upper House in SouthCarolina, Tobacco Museum, things that have

(18:48):
not been explored, right, butthe things that were getting Christie just got
a really unique m EVP at theConway Courthouse. Girls, we should definitely
send that to him so he canshow. Yeah, yeah, I can
send that to you. Yeah,that one was the coolest thing. But
yeah, a lot of these placeswhere are the first teams to ever be
allowed to go in. And youknow, especially you know, being in

(19:12):
the South, We're in the BibleBelt and a lot of people the talk
of the talk of paranormal is veryvery taboo still in the South, and
you know, and our goal asa team is to answer questions, gain
knowledge, tell stories of the past, but also break down that barrier and

(19:37):
let people know it is it's okayto talk about this stuff, it's okay
to experience these things. Um.And you know, we've had we've had
a very our The way people haveresponded to us has been very very positive
and very open, and so that'sbeen very nice. Right, Yeah,

(20:02):
can't here are you? Christie?Can you hear me now. Yeah,
yeah, we had no negative feedbackwhatsoever, no pushback. I mean,
we've been welcome so far. It'sgreat. That's that's awesome because that's kind
of what I ran into in myhometown. A lot of the businesses in

(20:25):
the downtown area where I grew up, people know the places were haunted,
but nobody wants to talk about it, and you try to bring it up
there like I don't know what you'retalking about. Um, we've been able
to investigate three of the businesses downthere. They were open to it and
they were like, yeah, comeon in. So we're kind of hoping
we can kind of be like,hey, these guys let us in.

(20:45):
Why don't you let us in?So it's something we've been working on now
for about three years, trying toget into some of these places and maybe
one day. So yeah, we'vebeen. We've been, and everything that
we've done has been first but it'salso been a lot of word of mouth

(21:06):
as well. So, UM,so we're able to kind of get into
places that where nobody's ever done anduh. And our our goal is to
long term five year plan is tobe able to build relationships and partnerships with
local municipalities and get get things goingfor you know, paranormal tourism, you

(21:29):
know all of that, right,and it's definitely a good way to go.
Whenever you can get businesses to kindof open up and allow you to
do it, that that could beyou know, you know how um you
said Chris does the tours and stuff, that could be something you guys could
do on on on the side too, to to kind of make a little
extra profit for yourself and for thebusiness as well. So that's uh,

(21:55):
was open up and talk about theirown experiences, especially children. I get
a lot of kids. I coulddo my tour and a lot of kids
don't want to say anything. Ijust don't. That's not right, you
know. And so when I domy tours, it just opens up a

(22:15):
dialogue, you know, and thenhopefully from there it will open up to
people wanting us to come and helpthem at their homes or at their businesses.
Right. So, now, whenyou guys get contacted to investigate a
residence or a commercial building, howhow do you go about deciding if you
want to investigate that place or not. Well, right now, because we're

(22:37):
so new, we're gonna we're goingto take that UM, that investigation just
even just for experience, even justto you know, learn our equipment further.
So as of right now, we'regoing to take that UM. But
I've always said, you know,we don't we don't deal with dark stuff.

(22:59):
We don't want too. That's notthe purpose of what we're what we're
doing. While we understand that it'sout there, we don't want to mess
with it. So if there isa home that has had claims and they
reach out to us and they hadclaims and of you know, some darker
stuff going on, we might say, well, you know, unfortunately we

(23:21):
are not equipped to deal with that, right so we would you know,
either refer them to somebody else oror you know, because at this time,
I mean, we like I said, we understand that we're going to
come up against stuff that's not thenicest, but we don't go seeking that
out. So so we we willturn down an investigation if it does have

(23:45):
some some darkness around it. UM. But mainly right now, because we're
so new and we're still learning,we will take just about anything that comes
our way, and and in thedarkness type stuff. That's kind of one
of the main reasons my team doesn'tdo personal residences because every message we've received

(24:08):
from people about hey can you comecheck this out, it's stuff that's just
like so out there and I'm I'mnot saying that it's not happening, but
like what they're telling me, I'mlike, I was like, all I
do is document I don't know reallyhow to handle the stuff being thrown across
the room, or or people beinga tax stuff like that. I'm like,

(24:29):
so you may want to contact thisperson or this church, or you
know somebody that's a little bit moreequipped to handle that. So, so,
what is each one of your favoritepiece of equipment whenever you're doing an
investigation? Can you hear me now? Yes, my favorite piece of equipments

(24:55):
is probably Oh no, I havemy video camera. I love actual recording,
but my microcom my new spirit boxsigned by Kadie Stafford, is my
new favorite piece of equipment. He'sa cool I had him on the show
last season. He's a pretty cooldude. Really yeah, if he ever

(25:18):
gets divorced himself in him, Ijust love it. I really We have
other spirit boxes. She has anSP seven, I have an SP eleven.
But I will have to say it'sa different kind of investigation. It's
a difference. It's just a totallydifferent experience between the two. I really

(25:41):
like the microcomb all right, UMmy favorite I typically am the one behind
the live camera, so I likedoing the lives. I like interacting with
people, UM, and I loveI'm gonna have to say my favorite piece

(26:03):
of equipment though, would be,um, the spirit box, because I
love doing the STS method, right, That's that's probably my favorite thing to
do is asked this method that itis pretty wild, especially when um,
you know what's be an ask islining up with what you're responding to.
So that's yeah, I love doingthat too. And uh I have I
have quite a few, quite afew stories from our SIS methods over the

(26:29):
couple. And so what's your favoritepiece um? In the beginning, when
I first got started, UM,I used to do my divination and things
like that using a candle, thedivining rise. That used to be my
favorite. Now with all the greatequipment they're bringing in, um, Aaron

(26:51):
got me into the asked this method, and that as a right now seems
to be really probably the most excitingpiece of equipment I've ever seen or ever
had a chance to do or useum. But I'm still all fashioned and
I still won't go back to actuallymy divine rights or something like that too.

(27:11):
All right, all right, SoDeborah, what about you? What's
your favorite piece from the camera outsideof my own intuition? I love the
ESTs method and Aaron increased together orphenomenal. I just I sit in amazement

(27:36):
every single time they do one together. I just it makes my little heart
better flying. That's awesome. Andwhat's your what's your favorite piece? So
with all the stuff we have,I do kind of go a little old
school too, and I actually doprefer for myself going throughout the night because
it's easy to either try to,you know, do recording on the spot

(28:00):
or a digital recording on the spot. And it's what I found that I've
gotten the most evidence with. RightThat's that's awesome. And you know you
keep saying you have some some reallycool experiences with the SAS method. I
want to tell you one of ourprobably craziest experiences during an SAS method.
It was just three of us thisone night. We was at the Hotel

(28:22):
Metropolitan and Paduca, Kentucky. I'msitting in the middle of the hallway and
my wife and our other teammates areprobably a good ten feet behind me,
and we're going through it, andat one point I feel something kind of
caress my left arm, and I'llcall that. I was like, something's

(28:45):
touching my arm. And probably tenseconds after that that same arn't feels like
somebody's poking me the arm, likethey poked me four or five times,
and I'm like, something's poking methe arm, and like that whole side
of my body got just like freezingcold. And probably about a minute and
a half later, you can hearour one teammate he says, um,

(29:07):
are you pop? And then Icome out and say, well, I'm
just trying. And then you hearmy wife say who's pop? And then
right at the camera you hear somebodythat's not there say that's not my name.
And that was captured on our videocamera, and of course my dumb
ass forgot to turn the IR lighton the camera. I was. I

(29:30):
was so upstick because I was like, man, what if we actually would
have captured or whatever was touching meon the arm, because like I was
dripping side of a room, solike something inside of the room was touching
me, and I was so disappointedthat I didn't have the light on.
But then when I heard the voice, I was like, well that's that's
that's way better. So that wasthat was pretty wild. And even it
wasn't even really the Stas method itselfthat that was amazing. It was the

(29:52):
voice we captured during the Sas methodthat it was just it was just wild.
So what's one of your what's oneof your craziest this method stories?
So for me, there's there's acouple of them. So I also got
touched when we went and did uma city hall a city hall um here
in Conway, um and and Ihad like a small hand print on my

(30:18):
back. But yeah, yeah.And then the weirdest thing for me,
and we were at the South CarolinaTobacco Museum and I was in the tobacco
barn. And you know, whenI get into an ESTUS session, I

(30:41):
I put my whole self in there, and um, and so my eyes
are covered, my ears, Icouldn't hear anything. But I'll typically and
I and I've noticed this through reviewingvideos, I'll typically begin to feel stuff
intuitively during these sessions. So ifI feel something, I say something just

(31:03):
walked just so that they can market, but also like um, like at
the Tobacco Museum, I was doingthe sis and I felt something in the
back, the far back corner,and I was like, there is and
I kept looking over there at atwhoever was standing there. And then I
think toward the end of that session, maybe what four minutes or so,

(31:27):
I was I was looking straight upinto the rafters as spirit was coming through
the spirit box. And when Igot done, I think Lenia had asked
me what were you looking at?I was like, there was eyes everywhere.
I could feel the eyes on me, just looking down. Um.

(31:48):
And and so that was probably thecraziest. But as far as responses go,
I probably the one from last weekend. So we were doing we to
a like an old more tired andwe went last weekend and I was doing
an STA session in them in themorgue and I was standing up leaning against

(32:14):
the table and I got my rearpinched and and of course I yelled it
out and said, somebody just touchedmy butt. And through the spirit box
comes comes comes a voice that says, oh, that's just Michael. That

(32:35):
they said, that's just Michael.He's a horn dog. And then and
then afterwards everybody, like all thespirits in that area were like, go
away, Michael, go away andget out of here. Go away,
Like you could just hear them inthe in the spirit box telling him to
go away. Yeah, that's that'sthat's pretty amazing to have that happened and
in that kind of response, that'sthat's that's that's pretty stuff. Yeah.

(33:01):
So, so any other wild astthe stories anybody wants to talk about.
When we were in when we werein marrying at the opera house, I
was doing ast us and Chris wasasking the questions and I kept telling them
from the word go almost I keptsaying, something's took and I kept doing
it isn't something's touching my neck orsomething's blowing on my neck and it was

(33:23):
about shoulder height, felt like justyou know, something just blewing right there.
And it kept doing it the wholetime. Well, then later we
got the name Timothy Timmy. Heliked Timmy. When we went upstairs into
the actual opera house, into theauditorium, we got him again and we

(33:45):
Aaron and I actually had motion lightscat balls going off, spirit box going
on. The lights were going offin response to our questions. We were
commute indicating with this child, andI said, it was it was like
child height. What was blowing onme downstairs? That was the weirdest feeling

(34:07):
in this world though, Just feelinglike somebody was blowing on your neck.
I mean, I could feel coldair. It was crazy. Yeah,
that's pretty well. And that remindsme of another SA session. We was
at an old post office and Ihave no clue where they had vaults in
this post office. They had twohuge ass vaults in this post office and

(34:30):
I was locked inside of one ofthem and the only thing in this vault
was a big safe behind me,and it kept feeling like there was somebody
behind me, and at one pointmy neck started to burn. I was
a great I'm done. I goingto get out of here. And when
they looked at my neck, therewere three scratch marks going down the back
of my neck, and I'm like, okay, I'm And you know,

(34:54):
we videoed this whole thing and Inever once touched my neck, so I
knew it wasn't me. And whatwas crazy about it is Deer and our
walk through that that night, twoof the other investigators got scratches on their
necks and the people who like kindof oversaw the investigations, they were like,

(35:14):
Oh, that's never happened here before. And I'm like, you mean
to tell me three of us comeout of this place with scratches and you
say it's never happened before. Notone time. I was like, one
time, I can kind of see, okay, it's a quintance. But
three of us get scratched, Andit was just what we felt like they
were hiding stuff from us because becausedeer and the walkthrough, when the guy

(35:37):
was talking, his wife would kindof look at him and kind of shake
her head like, no, don'ttell him that, or no, you
can't, you can't talk about that. No, So we, you know,
we kind of we decided to goahead and go go through with it.
But with all that stuff happened,it was it was a wild So
I can't hear you, Christy,what did you catch other things that night?

(36:00):
In addition to the scratches? Uh? Goss? What else? What
else happened? Um? Yeah,the scratches happened. Um I was like
two and a half years ago.Um, let's see it doesn't that make
you feel differently about the location Whenyou feel like you've been mislead a little

(36:22):
bit. Um, But that thattown in general, where that post office,
that that whole little town is kindof kind of odd. Um,
So I think it's the town ingeneral, um, but I know,
uh later all. Actually, earlierin the night, when another team member
was doing an SAS method and theother vault, we thought he was trying

(36:43):
to get out. We thought hewas kicking the door trying to get out
because we was hearing banging on ourside, and so we opened the door
and like, hey, what's goingon. He's like, what are you
talking about? I'm like, areyou not kicking the door? He's like,
I haven't moved, and the videohe never moves, but we're here,
but we're hearing this banging on ourside like he's trying to get out.
And it was the interesting place andwe were seeing like these these weird

(37:07):
crawling shadows in the basement and itwas just a weird place. Yeah.
So so again I'm want to goto each one of you. Um,
I'm gonna start with Linia. Iprobably screwed that up again. Now you
got it, You got it allright. So what's probably been the one
occurrence has probably spooked you the most. You're an investigation. Oh, Um,

(37:36):
I'm gonna have to go with justan overall vibe of the building.
Um. We did again the SouthCarolina Tobacco Factory because tab Tobacco Museum,
sorry, um. And the entirevibe there that night, and there was
something that occurred there that we've neverhad before. Um. And it was
very creepy. We were in thisback warehouse room is that what you would

(37:59):
call it, Aaron? Yea,And all of a sudden there was an
overwhelming stench of cat urn that theentire team was able to spell to smell.
And I mean you know, ifyou know that smell, it's not
something that goes away easily. Andit kind of followed us for a little

(38:20):
bit and went away. Um.But that entire night, like you just
kind of felt like it was avery um, I don't know how would
you say. It felt like theone spirit that was kind of very present
was very antagonistic. Yes, Um, he got under Aaron's skin a little
bit. He Aaron needed Aaron neededa breathere in a time out. Um.

(38:44):
And it's probably the first location thatI didn't want to be by myself,
you know, I mean, okay, fine, running off, you
know, doing whatever. But thenI was kind of like, hey,
wait where are you? Where areyou? Girls? Don't leave me?
Oh wow, that's that's just toget a whole vibe of the entire building.
That's that's pretty intense. Yeah.So, um, Deborah, what

(39:05):
about you? What's been the thingthat's probably spooked you the mostaring an investigation?
Um, last weekend, I hadsomething attached to me. Oh wow,
yeah that was nerve racking, stomachturning. Yeah, yeah, it's
it got back of my left anklesand I couldn't walk. I couldn't put

(39:28):
my foot down without a searing painjust shooting through it. But as soon
as we got outside, it startedeasing down a little bit. And when
I got saged, I was fine. It was like nothing ever happened.
M But that was that was unsettling. I bet that, uh, something

(39:51):
similar to that happened to my wife, daring her verry Verse investigation. She
got affected by something and she endedup having like a sharp pain underst I'm
making. She had to go outsideand be staged and everything before, and
it took her probably a good coupleof hours before she started filling herself again.
So that's that's pretty wild. Soso, Chris, what about you

(40:13):
gotta saying to backroom museum, allthat backroom, I don't know what was
going on in there because that youknow, no one else really had experienced
anything else, and we were experiencinga lot of things, um, but
the back room I had been doingstes and when I went to get up

(40:35):
and there are a majority of usin this huge back warehouse room, I
got touched right back here like inmy kidney area, really severe. And
it wasn't just me. There havebeen a couple others that got and it
was at the same time. Ohwow, same spot at the same time,

(40:57):
And I mean I almost went downbecause the just it threw me off
guard and I think, I'm tomyself, Okay, this isn't one of
those pains that I'm used to aboutmy age. In one of those it
is. It was a severe painand it nearly took me out and I
literally had to leave the room,and that we had to call upon Linea

(41:19):
and Lennia as the raking Master,and I had to call upon her to
help me, you know, getthrough that because it was just so severe
and so sudden, and that scaredme because when I go into a place,
before I go, I always meditateand I always say you cannot touch
me, you do not have permission. And when that happened, I thought,
books, maybe I didn't pray hard. No, what is the history

(41:45):
behind this tobacco museum, because itseems like it's been like your guy's most
active place you've been to just fromwhat you've been telling me. What's kind
of the history of this place?Yea. So it's actually an old train
depot. So the town that it'sin in Mueland, South Carolina, and
it's a beautiful museum. If you'reever down this way, definitely gonna check
it out. Um. But it'sin an old train depot, and Mueland,

(42:10):
South Carolina has is South Carolina Capitalor the Golden lea Yeah, the
Golden Leaf Capital of South Carolina,and so a huge tobacco um industry you
know, dating back. Yeah.So this museum has tons of artifacts and

(42:34):
it's all about tobacco from the growthto uh harvesting. Different tools are in
there. There's a shovel in therefrom like the seventeen hum so there's and
then on top of that it wasa train depot. Um, it was
used as a train depot back inthe day, so that in general and
South Carolina has such historical yeah,I was. We can say there could

(43:00):
be many components as a kind ofcombining there to make it as active as
it is. So all right,So Aaron, so what's been your probably
spookiest moment, So tobacco museum aswell as Lennia said, I had something
affect my emotions. But now whatI will tell you is is we investigate.

(43:21):
We typically investigate like I don't thinkI've ever seen anybody investigate the way
we do. So going into locations, usually the week leading up to an
investigation, we all do some sortof meditation, automatic writing. And we
also don't know the history until afterwe go to a location. We go
in completely blind and so we won'twe don't know the history, We don't

(43:45):
know any claims until after we doour walkthrough, and so when we don't
share our meditations or automatic writings beforeand so what I I kept giving and
then later on turned out a lotof us kept getting it. There was
the main spirit there is a veryvery nasty man who only do you think

(44:16):
because women are only good for onething, and here we are a team
of women coming into his space.So for me, he actually I learned
that night that I'm much more empathicthan I realized because he I felt.
And I think it was after thetobacco barn was when it started affecting me.

(44:37):
But I felt every bit of rageand just hatred that this guy was
projecting. And the weirdest part isin my head, I was like,
don't let them get to you.Just step outside. You know what to
do, Just step outside, removeyourself. But my body because I felt
so much rage and anger, Iwanted to throw hands with this guy.

(45:00):
I wanted to go into the bathroomwhere he was hiding and beat his ass.
I was just ready to throw him. But um and and it went
off because, like I said,in my head, I was like,
just go outside, just go outside, don't let him get to you.
And we don't we don't provoke,we do not provokee. But his emotions
were coming through so strong that someof the things that I was saying could

(45:23):
be taken as provoking and so andin my head I was like, don't
provoke. You know better, don'tdo this, just go outside. But
my body was like, I'm gonnabeat this guy's ass and I'm gonna just
go to town. Finally I gotoutside and was saved and had some rinki
and I was good. But beforethat, I had stepped outside and I

(45:45):
was pacient. That's crazy, That'sthat's crazy. So Christy, is it
the same place. Well, Ihaven't experienced there. That was the only
place that I had ever been affectedphysically. I wasn't feeling well before I
got there. I have multiple sclerosisand premature arthritis and several other things.

(46:07):
But anyway, sometimes with my MS, I just if I don't feel good,
I just don't have a lot ofenergy. I just so. I
wasn't feeling quite right before I gotthere, so I had taken an app.
I felt better when I got there. I hadn't been there five minutes
and I had a flare up withmy MS and it was just like snapping

(46:31):
your fingers and Lenia and Chris workedon me and I finally after they did
their thing, I didn't have anyenergy at all. Then I went and
slept in my car for an hourand a half. Wow. And when
I yeah, and they saged mebefore I came back in and the minute
I stepped in the door, Isaid out loud, you do I have

(46:52):
for mession to touch me. Youcannot bother me, you know all that
good thing. And I felt kindand wrestling up, but it didn't.
Yeah, I was the only onethat felt fine the rest of my But
that didn't scare me because I haveMS and I know how that feels,
and I know what to do nowif I'm not feeling well, I know
not to put myself in that sexquestion. Last weekend is the most scared

(47:15):
I have been. We were leavingthe upstairs where a daughter's office used to
be, and as down some oldyou have to go down some rickety steps
to get out. As we weregathering up our things at the end of
the night, we were walking downfrom upstairs, Chris and I kept hearing
this tapping noise and I did notcatch it on my video camera or my

(47:37):
tape reporter, but we heard it, and I think we're the only ones
that heard it, and we heardit on two different occasions. Well,
as we were leaving, we werewalking away and we heard the tapping and
we turned around and went back andwe couldn't figure out what it was,
so Anyway, we were heading allout for the night. She goes down

(47:58):
first and and I was the lastone to come down. Well, of
course it's pitch black behind me,so that makes you feel weird anyway.
But I got halfway down the stairsand I said, y'all, there's something
behind me. There's something And Icould literally feel and oh god, the
hair standing up on the back ofmy neck talking about it. I could

(48:19):
feel this thing just like rushing rightdown the stairs behind me, and it
was standing right behind me the hallway out the door, and they were
like snapping pictures and looking and shiningtheir flashlights. That's the most scared I
have been because I could literally feelhim breathing down my neck, like get
out of here, and I didn'tfind me. I turned around and looked
up. I'm like, why doyou play with us earlier? You know?

(48:46):
Right? And I guess too,because it's dark and you can't see,
and you're like, you don't knowwhat it is? That was right,
I bet now, now, Aaron, you mean that you know you've
you've been affected emotionally. That's happenedto me on two separate occasions. The

(49:08):
first time, I went from beingextremely angry to within about forty five seconds,
like I was literally crying in tears. Had no clue why until I
went back and listened to the audio. Is actually our first unofficial investigation at
Brushy Mountain. It seemed that wewere interacting with an African American male who

(49:32):
had been in prison for something henever never done. So I was feeling
his emotions of being pissed off orbeing wrongfully accused till feeling his emotions to
being sad and depressed. Was spendinghis life there for something he'd never done,
and the most recent was just herea couple of months ago. Was
that another jail doing the S's methodsession and it just it goes dead quiet,

(49:55):
like nothing's coming through, and Istart I start shaking my leg like
I can't control my leg from shaking. The next thing I know, I'm
just I'm crying, and and mywife's like what pulls pulls? My head
falls on She's like, what's what'sgoing on? I was like I don't
know, and uh my co founderhad to literally more or less just picked
me up and pull me out ofthe sale because I didn't want to leave,

(50:19):
but I was like, you gottaget me out of here, but
I don't want to leave. Itwas it was so crazy. Um that
was like that was like me atthe Tobacco Museum. Um, all I
wanted to just keep doing is gointo the bath room. I just I
stood in the doorway for like yeah, and and I stood in the doorway

(50:40):
and I just I just wanted,like I said, just wanted to throw
hands with this guy at this point, and like I was gonna do everything
I could like get back there.And but but finally, and it was
a good That was a good investigationfor us as a team because it really
we had so much activity that night, so much going on physically, emotionally,

(51:01):
um with our spirit box, withall of our equipment, we could
not keep a charge on a camerafor more than ten minutes. And but
that was a good investigation for usbecause it really, you know, it
taught us so much. And yeahand now yeah and now like we know

(51:27):
if we can kind of read eachother now and if somebody gets if we
can see somebody starting to get affected, we know, all right, let's
go outside. Like with with withDeborah last weekend when when whoever grabbed onto
her leg um, we were likeall right, let's I got sage in
the car. Because we had splitup into two teams at this point,

(51:47):
so me and Deborah were on ateam, and so I was like,
I got, I got sage inmy bag. Let's save you, let's
get outsigned. And so it reallytaught us to be mindful of your team
and and and learn how to readyour team because that's you know, safety
is important thing, spiritual safety andphysical safety. Right. Really cool thing

(52:13):
that we caught last weekend at UMin Lake City. At Chris and I
were doing ANSTED session and I wasasking her the questions and she kept talking
about a young boy in his twentiesand we finally finally came out that he
was a soldier. He had died, and she kept saying general. She
kept saying the word general. Well, after it was all over, we

(52:36):
didn't realize the connection. After itwas all over, she and one of
our guest investigators who was with usthat night, Craig, they went upstairs.
There's a second floor in the boardwell. They got to poking around
and they found some old books.They found a book that listed all of
the soldiers from South Carolina in WorldWar Two. Oh wow, So I

(53:00):
was like, that is super cool. And I was like, bring it
down, let's look at it.And she was like no, no,
she's like I ain't touching it.They were like they were posting at it
with a golf club. That's why. I just thought that was really cool
that we call that right, that'sthat's that's that's pretty neat. That kind
of happened to us at an investigation. Our last one. We kept getting

(53:20):
the kept getting the word bishop keptcoming through, and at first we initially
thought, you know, religious typebishop because there was a church rup behind
the building. And yeah, whenwe after that session was over, we
went down and asked the guy thatwas there, you know, was there
any bishop because it was an oldit's a Masonic lodge is where we were

(53:43):
at, and he was like,now, there's never been any bishops as
members. I was like, oh, well, that that doesn't add up.
In So then when we did ournext session, we got um,
we got a name. We keptthe bishop kept coming through, but then
we finally got a first name.It was um William. And so while
they were still asking questions, theystarted googling and they found a list of

(54:07):
m Confederate soldiers and there was aWilliam Bishop on there. Wow. It
was like, okay, well maybethis is who has been talking to us,
and it was just it's just reallycool when you get names like that
and then you can go back andlook and say, okay, maybe this
was who was coming through. Sothat that's pretty neat that you guys experienced
that too. Yeah, And soyou say you like to go in completely

(54:30):
blind, Yes, yes, wewe We kind of do the same thing
at times. We don't do itevery time, but there are times where
I'll be like, okay, let'soh this is a cool place. Let
me check this place out. We'llwe'll we'll go there. And then they'll
be like, do you want toknow some of the history, And I'll
be like, no, what doyou want to know some of the activity?

(54:52):
I don't tell us anything, becausewhen you go in knowing the activity,
you're kind of expecting that the activityto happen, and so if it
doesn't happen, you're like, well, this was just a big ass disappointment.
You know this, you know,But then when you experience it and
they tell you later, oh that'ssomething that happens here a lot, you
know, that's something really cool.And a lot of people I don't think

(55:14):
do that. They like to doa lot of research beforehand, and which
is fine, but at the sametime, you already know what to kind
of what to expect, so andthere's times where I won't research until after
I've done reviewed everything so and tosee kind of what adds up and what
doesn't. So I think that's aI think that's an awesome approach in our

(55:37):
opinion. So well, that happenedthe same reason. When we do our
meditations, we all do it aheadof him. You know. We don't
want to put ideas into each other'shead, so we wait until the end
of the night to kind of revealwhat our meditations. Yes, so Aaron
always wants to tell us. Shegets very excited, but Lenia plays the
mother and doesn't let anybody say whatthey happen till the end of the night

(55:58):
because I don't I don't want toplan the ideas in anybody's head. But
it's always so cool at the endof the night when we're like, hey,
who would like so Christie heard Timothy? Well, Nia has Timothy written
down, you know what I mean. So it's kind of cool. Other
people are picking up stuff that youhad written down and you don't know you
know, yeah, that is prettycool. Um, So this is kind

(56:19):
of just kind of a fun question. Um. An investigator who actually oversees
the old old Scott County Jail,she sent out a survey to a bunch
of investigators she knows, and shejust was asking like a ton of questions
to kind of get an idea ofkind of how investigators are pre investigation,
um, and kind of like howthere the routine is, how kind of
there they're they're spending and stuff is. One of her questions was what is

(56:44):
like your go to snacks before endearingan investigation? That was like in,
well, that's that's that's your ladieskind of go to snack gearing an investor
Asian then huh always so, doyou have like a pre investigation dinner that

(57:07):
you normally do or is it justkind of wherever you're feeling. No.
Last week I stopped at Walmart andgot one of the Deli sandwiches that it
seems like every time we go out, we always which it's it's a terrible
idea just because of what it is, but we always seem to go towards
Mexican food. It's just because likeeverywhere we go, they have like it's

(57:31):
such a small town, so theyhave limited choices unless you want to drive
another thirty or forty minutes away.So would always it's always seemed to be
Mexican. But like for us,well for me, like during the night,
I'll snack on like beef jerky andenergy drinks and stuff like that.
So but doughnuts, that's that's adifferent one of you go. All right,

(57:55):
So I know you guys say youdon't really do the pay to plays,
but there's got to be a topfor each one of you that,
Oh, I've got to go tothis place at some point. So to
each one of you guys, what'slike your top place for that? Mine
I have too. I want togo to the same Augustine Lighthouse and the

(58:15):
Winchester Mystery House. Those are twoof my litre on my bucket list too.
Mine, Um, I want togo to trans Alleghany, that's my
top one. Yeah. And WaverlyHills. Yeah, Waverly Hills is amazing.
Yeah, I can't wait to getthere. I've been three times and

(58:40):
we experienced different stuff each time I'vebeen, and it's just it's so massive.
Oh my gosh. When whenever youget to go, and I hope
you get to experience that, Iwould recommend going on your own, just
like as a team and some morefriends, you can have the whole building
to yourself. The public ones arefine because it's so big and they're so

(59:05):
spread out, but there's still thatchance of contamination. So when you decide,
say that you want to go,gather up a few more of your
friends and book that place just foryou guys. That way, you know
for a fact you're ear capturing somegood stuff because you're gonna. I don't
think you want to leave disappointed,even if you don't capture anything at all.
Just the building itself in the historyis worth the price of admission.

(59:29):
Yeah, yeah, trans Alleghany,for sure, I've got to go there.
I watch everybody on the team.I gotta go. I gotta go.
Yeah. Well, you don't shootmost of the places we go to

(59:49):
a lot don't keep us in shape. There you go, that's found that.
Yeah, that's not right. Fransallegant. Yes, but my and
I know it can never be reallyis outside of reach? Can and then

(01:00:12):
hear you do you say Alcatraz.Yes, that'd be amazing too, that
would be so intense. So,Lenia, what about you, Well,
I'm a horror movie junkie, Sofor my birthday this year, I'd actually
really like to go to the StanleyHotel and I would love to spend a

(01:00:37):
night or two in the Amityville Housetoo, Right, what about the Conjuring
House. Um, I'm me andmy wife are actually right in the middle
of a documentary about and it's thestuff they've captured there in this documentary has
been pretty insane so far. Soand of course the movies hypes it up

(01:00:59):
a little bit and they have tochange stuff around. But but I think
it'd be intense, Yeah for sure. Yeah, Yeah, it's definitely a
little darker. Yeah, what we'reprepared to Right, So overall, what's
what's the goal for Ghost of theCoast paragram? But what's your ultimate goal

(01:01:22):
behind this whole thing? Let's justsay give the five year plan aaron five
year plan. Ultimately, Uh,have our own documenteries whether YouTube, whether
it be a YouTube series or ownyou know Netflix. Well, trying to

(01:01:44):
kind of stay away from Travel Channelat this point. A lot of stuff,
a lot, a lot of dramagoing on with him right now.
But ultimately I would love for usto have some sort of documenties. I
think, yeah, I'm just alittle by but now, UM, I
would love to get some sort oflike, UM paracon going here in our

(01:02:06):
county. So um, so hereon Merle Beach has some sort of paracon
because you know we have we havelocal teams here, but none of them
are flind as active as we are. And if I mean really, yeah
and so and I know the teamsare here and so to get some sort

(01:02:30):
of paracon going would be an ultimateparacon and TV those are the ultimate ultimate
goals and aboo bas those are ourultimate goals. And I would like to
get and we were just talking aboutthis tonight actually um for coming on here.

(01:02:51):
UM, I would like to createsome sort of partnership with the City
of Conway. Um. We thecity Conway changes its name to Halloween,
South Carolina every year through through themonth of October, and um, and
I'd like to create a partnership withthe city, um and doing some sort

(01:03:15):
of walking investigation. Okay, becauseit is such an old and historic town,
there's a lot of locations that wouldbe fantastic for um, some sort
of walking investigation tour, right,Yeah, that'd be that would be pretty
cool. Um, they have invitedto seeing this Halloween to participate as the

(01:03:37):
things, but we'd love to makeit exclusively US annually. Yeah. Yeah,
don't know until your track, that'sright, And you know y'all being
in South Carolina, I'm surprised nobodymentioned this but the old Charleston jail.
Yeah that Yeah, they're not goingto be doing the tours anymore than can

(01:04:00):
into the office. Yeah. Yeah, I talked to the gentleman that the
tours there. I cannot believe theyare going to make it offices. I'm
like, do you think any ofyou would want to lease an office?
I don't think so. I knowI'd reached out to him at one point
and when they were still doing it, and they were one of the most

(01:04:23):
expensive places that I've contacted me andfor like not very much time, right,
And I'm like, man, Iwas, yeah, I like,
I love to do it, butfor that price and that amount of time,
it's it's not worth it, becauseyou're because for us it'd be like
