Ladies and gentlemen, this is Life Beyond six Feet. I'm
Damien from Spooky South five oh seven, and this week
I have another past guest joining the show from season one,
episode one, my very first guest when I started the show,
mister Eric Freeman Simms. Eric, welcome back to Life Beyond
six Feet.

Speaker 2 (00:56):
Yeah, thanks for having me back on, man, I'm looking forward.

Speaker 1 (00:58):
To absolutely And this is actually your third appearance now
on the show, because not only were you my first guest,
you were part of the very first paranormal roundtable I
did at the end of season one. So this is
your third appearance on the show. So when we first chatted,
you were just premier season three of the Unseen Paranormal

(01:19):
Podcast and now you're a few episodes into season five.
So how's the show been going over the last couple
of years.

Speaker 3 (01:26):
It's been going really well, just growing and growing and growing.
I mean everyday, new new listeners and new people joining
the Facebook group and the following the page and following me,
and yeah, it's just it's it's just going it's going
really well. I can't ben ask for more. Just you know,
I'm well over one hundred and fifty thousand downloads and

(01:49):
so it's just amazing.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
So Camplain, that's awesome.

Speaker 4 (01:54):
So how many episodes do you think you're up to now?

Speaker 2 (01:59):
This this? We could be one sixty five.

Speaker 4 (02:01):
Oh man, I got a ways to catch up yet.

Speaker 3 (02:04):
So yeah, that's about I've had. I've had some repeat guests,
so I figured it's probably about one hundred and fifty guests,
right and.

Speaker 1 (02:13):
Uh so, uh, who are some people you've had on
since the last time we've chatted any anybody that people
may may know, or some some relatively unknown people. Who's
some of your past guests over the last couple of seasons.

Speaker 3 (02:26):
I started out this fifth season with with Jim Harold,
who if anybody's big paranormal podcast fans, He has the
Paranormal Podcast, that's the name of his first show. He's
been doing it for seventeen years and he's one of
the original paranormal podcasters. He also does Jim Harold's Campfires,
which is really popular. So I had to have the

(02:48):
pleasure of talking to him, which is really cool. Let's see,
I've had so many really good people. I just had
Stevie from Truth or Truth or Demon's podcast talking about
the Monk and the Warrens and talking about the the
truth about the Warrens, the actual truth that she's not
our opinions, but actually things that she has gone in
research about the Warrens and she's watched countless hours of

(03:11):
interviews and things, and so that was a great conversation.
Last season had some great guests Doctor Callum Cooper, who's
a parapsychologist from Canada who's a great guy, very smart,
smart than I ever will be. He teaches in England,
actually teaches parapsychology in England. Yeah, and at a big
university there, but part of the Center for Psychical Research

(03:33):
Society for Psychical Research in England as well. Great guests,
but yeah, just talk to all kind of cool people.
There was a gentleman, Steve Causey, that I talked to
about the Lamb between the Lakes massacre and he wrote
a book about back in the eighties a family got
supposedly mascred by a dog man in Lamb between the Lakes.
And he was really interesting guests and very very good

(03:57):
to talk to. And I wasn't familiar until a couple
of years ago with the there actually was dog men
in Tennessee. I guess you always get about them everywhere else.
And then I started hearing a couple of years ago
about Lamington Lakes being a huge hot spot for dog
men and all these researchers that they're researching it now
and so pretty interesting topic and to you know, come
back to Tennessee, our home state, and talking about Tennessee.

(04:21):
And for this new season, I just recorded with a
gentleman who knows all about the cryptids and folcal. We're
in urban legends and things of the Appalachias, So just recorded
with him.

Speaker 2 (04:32):
So that's pretty cool.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
But yeah, lots of different guests and just trying to
keep it a different I had some repeat guests as well,
because they've had new books with new topics and things
come out. The end of the four season, I had
a couple on who I haven't really approached the subject
of I haven't done aliens a lot because I don't
want to do the tenfold hat it's for your theory stuff.

(04:56):
And so I found this couple that wrote a book
and it's the season four finale, and they were just
great about who they think the UAPs are and why
they're here, and they had a very well educated argument
for abductions and things that are really going on, and
so they were just great guests to approach that subject finally,

(05:18):
and especially with the duct abduction stuff and the stories
about the things that they went through, their very believable
witnesses about the guy had been his family has been
kind of aduct abducted a lot of them throughout his lineage.

Speaker 2 (05:32):
It's kind of a curse of his family.

Speaker 3 (05:33):
But yeah, great people to talk to, especially on that subject,
because I'm always looking for people who are educated and
have a good Whether I agree with them or not,
but they have a good, well thought out, well researched
argument for you know what, they what they believe in,
and their stories are believable and they're credible.

Speaker 2 (05:51):
Right.

Speaker 1 (05:52):
Well, it sounds like you've had a wide range of
different people to chat with over these last couple of seasons,
and they have to dip into some of your guests.
I think I've done that a couple of times, Like
that's person sounds pretty cool And when I reached out
to them so and again over the last couple of
years since we had that very first conversation on the show,

(06:14):
you you've helped put together a couple of pair of
paranormal conventions, which I was a part of the very
first one. So how did that kind of come about
when you guys decided.

Speaker 2 (06:22):
To do that.

Speaker 3 (06:25):
So the first one, a couple of years ago in Lebanon,
was kind of small, and I came in like two
weeks before it was going to happen. Kind of some
other people that were helping kind of it kind of
fell apart, and then I came in being friends with
Regina from PPF Investigations and Leave from Medic four Paranormal.
They asked me to step in because they knew that
I had lots of experience with events because I was

(06:48):
a wedding DJ for twenty years and oh wow and
things like that.

Speaker 4 (06:52):
So I didn't even know that, yeah.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
Of DJ two hundred fifty weddings and various other events.
But since I had the knowledge and kind of the
know how and also the you know, the the phone
book of guests, especially Tennessee guests to get to come
and speak and things like that, so I jumped in
and helped them kind of save that from being canceled.
And then we decided last year. I said, well, script,

(07:18):
we're gonna go bigger, go home. So we went big
and did the Tennessee Haunts and Legends Expo at the
National Fairgrounds, and that was a lot of fun. Had
great speakers come out all day and had lots of
vendors and things, and it was a blast. It took
us about eight months to planet and so that's why

(07:39):
we I'm doing it this year. It may happen next year,
but it took it kind of dominated our lives for
quite a while, so it was a big undertaking.

Speaker 1 (07:47):
Yeah, and then you know, I didn't get to to
join the one last year because at that point my
team had pretty much done, dwindled down to me and
my life, and I'm like, you know, it's like I
want to do it, but it's not really much of
a team right now. And yeah, so as you can
tell by the background, you know, I've re kind of
revamped my team. I'm trying to find a few new members.

(08:09):
I've got one new member, you know, other than my wife.
But maybe if i'll put it together next year, you know,
Spooky South can be part of that. So yeah, and
I know we've chatted before. I don't know if we
talked about it during the first talk we had, but
I remember you mentioned something about a book is that
still happening.

Speaker 4 (08:27):
Are you still writing that? What's what's going on with that?

Speaker 3 (08:30):
Well, it's kind of been put on hold, it is,
It's about half written. I kind of put it on
hold because I bought a honted location, bought an storic house,
and just busy with other things, like got into documentary
filmmaking with Stranger Haunted and that kind of blew up
really quickly on YouTube and we weren't expecting it to
have to do this well for these two small episodes.

(08:53):
So just been busy with other things. And the book
will eventually be finished when I have time to do it,
probably once we get the Nighthouse up and running and
I have some downtime, you know, while the teams are
in there. I'll be there in my office and I'll
have some downtime actually work on it. But yeah, it'll
it'll be. It'll happen at some point, hopefully by the
end of this year.

Speaker 4 (09:14):
Awesome.

Speaker 1 (09:15):
I'm definitely looking forward to that. I guess, like I said,
I remembered you had mentioned it before, and I knew
I hadn't seen you say anything about it for a while,
so I was just just curious about that. So strangely haunted.
You mentioned that just a second ago. Yeah, like you
said that that first episode really just kind of exploded
like overnight.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
Like I remember when you posted the first episode.

Speaker 1 (09:38):
I don't think I got to actually check on it
until like the next day, and it was quite a
lot of views in like twenty four hours. I was like, man, so,
how how did that come about?

Speaker 2 (09:47):
With you?

Speaker 4 (09:47):
In Austin.

Speaker 3 (09:49):
We met a few years ago and just kind of
became fast friends and kind of a lot of the
same views on the paranormal and also on how to investigate.

Speaker 2 (09:59):
We're both awesoly.

Speaker 3 (10:01):
We're both also very skeptical to begin with, and I've
always called myself a skeptical believer. I do believe in
the paranorm won't have plenty of experiences, and I've had
crazy shit happened to me that you probably wouldn't even believe.
But and I have seen things that are that are unbelievable.
But I tend to be I try to be a
skeptic first, especially with evidence and things, because if I
scrutinize it as much as I can before I put

(10:23):
it out there, then it's it's harder for other people
to debunk it.

Speaker 2 (10:27):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (10:27):
If I've already tried to debunk it myself, and so
I will never put anything out that I had there's
any explanation for and so, but me and him are
very like minded in that, and so we wanted to
do a different type of paranormal documentary than you see
mostly on YouTube. Uh, there's also a lot of fakers
going on, a lot of faking stuff going on on YouTube,

(10:48):
and then people have been caught lately, a lot of
the big YouTubers have been caught faking stuff, and so
we just wanted to put it out there and this
is this is investigating, this is what we do, and
what you see on films what you get. And me
and Austin have a certain chemistry between us because we're alike,
but we're very much different people. At the same time,
he's a bit more introverted, I'm a bit extroverted, and

(11:12):
so it just makes you a good dynamic. But the
first time we ever investigated together was the very first
film at the Commodore Hotel. We talked about investigating, we
never investigated together, and it just kind of worked really,
really well, and we put out the Commodore hotel. It
exploded way beyond I mean, it didn't go viral or anything.

(11:32):
It's not millions of downloads, but I think it's at
like twelve thousand downloads. And then we put out the
second one and it did the same thing. So I
think that channels just with those two videos and a
few shorts up there, I think it's a like thirty
something thousand downloads, thirty some thousand views. And so then
we decided because we're both really busy and Austin also,

(11:53):
Austin lives in Ohio, six hours from me, so for
us to get together, it takes a lot of planning
because we're our schedules are both so busy. So we
decided to go to more long form documentary. So Brushy Mountain.
We have the we've already filmed it. It's it's being edited,
but we have the trailer out also put a put

(12:15):
a great trailer together, put it out there. So that'll
be the next one coming out, but it'll be a
long form probably over an hour long. Trying to get
it out through like probably through Amazon Prime and things
for a couple of dollars to rent. Oh that's cool, Yeah,
just to help raise money to pay for production expenses
and things. It's just me and him and all the
equipment we've we've bought. Austin's bought most of like the

(12:38):
film equipment things, but we both put a lot of
money into microphones and you know, making the best production possible.
So it looks very professional. Both of us already come
into it having a good know how how to video edit,
audio edit, a sound design, things like that, just from
previous things that we've done throughout life, and so it

(12:58):
just kind of works. He is actually doing some stuff
on his own right now, and then we'll be back
to filming later on this year for another documentary.

Speaker 4 (13:09):
That's cool.

Speaker 1 (13:10):
So without giving away too much, because you know, I'd
rather direct people to watch the videos and stuff. What's
some a couple of little interesting things that happened during
those two investigations at the Commodore in at Brushing Mountain.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
So the Commodore was interesting. We didn't even know it
had never been officially like investigated. It's a hotel in Linden, Tennessee,
and it had never been officially like investigated as far
as we know, And so there wasn't a whole lot
of claims that we could go off of and also
until the new owners bought it in like two thousand
and seven, there's not a lot of history in the

(13:45):
building either.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (13:46):
And so it was opened. I believe it's built, and
it's been a little while since the Commodore that's back
at the first of this year. But it was built
in nineteen thirty nine and opened and the owner he
owned it until and it wasn't called the Commodore. I'm
trying to remember what it was called. But he owned
it until he died in nineteen fifty six, and then

(14:09):
I guess, I don't know if he didn't have any
family or anything. It was hard to find any information
on him, any family or anything that were his family
didn't want to run it, so the building kind of
sat empty. It became a part of Western Auto Parts
Store in the late fifties through like the seventies eighties,
and then kind of just set vacant for about twenty
something years until the new owners come in and they
made it this boutique hotel and they pretty much these

(14:32):
two people they weren't expecting to open a hotel. They
were going to come in and they bought the building
for pennies on the dollar very cheap because it's said
they're vacant. So they thought, we'll come in and we'll
renovate it and then we'll sell it to somebody who
knows how to run hotels, because they are flippers.

Speaker 2 (14:46):
They're renovators. That's what they do. Well. They liked Lenden
so much they actually opened it as.

Speaker 3 (14:50):
A hotel after they got it done and kind of
revitalized the whole downtown of London, Tennessee. And so now
Linden is a destination for the Buffalo River now to
go canoeing and kayaking and stuff in the summer and
hiking and things like that, and so so they've never
really had anybody in there to investigate. The owners have
had things happen. And we even talked to their son

(15:12):
who kind of runs it now, and he said, you know,
you're here furniture moving and things like that upstairs. But
he's like, you know, not anything crazy, because you know,
most of the time there's people in the hotel for
one right, you know, And we kind of went on
their off season, so there were a couple of other
rooms that were occupied, so we couldn't we didn't have

(15:32):
free room of the place, not upstairs anyway. But it
was interesting going in completely blind because normally we don't,
you know, normally we have some sort of history. We've
got to you know, at least if it's like a
bed and breakfast, the owners have like the patrons writing
in a journal or something, you know, they had this
happen to him, a lady was at the for of
the bed.

Speaker 2 (15:51):
You know. We didn't have had any of that.

Speaker 3 (15:54):
So it was interested going in blind and filming a
documentary at the same time, not knowing we're going to
catch anything. Not that we're ever guaranteed to have anything happen,
but most investigations you'll have at least some things happen,
you know, at least in a good EVP or something
here and there, you know, And we got really lucky

(16:17):
that there was quite a few weird things that happened.
One of the things that happened that I've never seen before,
and the only thing that we could call is a
ghost flame. And in the kitchen, we have a static
camera set up on the table pointing towards the kitchen,
and what looks like fire. It comes up in the

(16:39):
stainless steel and we're actually trying we're actually debunking the
swinging door opening by itself, so we're over here to
the side, and we tried to recreate it when cars
were coming by and everything. We tried to explain it
on film when there was different cars coming from different ways.
That was just headlight shine, but we can We never
saw it again. It wasn't on film again, but it
looked like flames coming up, and uh, that was that

(17:01):
was interesting for sure. Yeah, it kind of seemed like
at the Commodore. It was one of those locations where
any spirits that were there were kind of on the periphery,
kind of keeping their distance from us. Right, we were
hearing things in the kitchen, we were sitting at the
back of the cafe. When we were on the speakeasy,

(17:23):
you were seeing shadows out the door that goes into
the lobby. We were hearing noises in the back of
the speakeasy. Didn't speak it. It wasn't it was built
in nineteen thirty nine, but they put a bar in
they call the speakeasy even though it wasn't. The building
wasn't even there during prohibition. But yeah, lots of things
happened on the periphery and we heard the noises upstairs

(17:43):
sounded like front ture moving in the middle of the night,
about three o'clock. Yeah, yeah, and couldn't explain those. But
also there's other people in the building, so I couldn't
say that that was paranormal or not. There are a
few times where we got some like music tones that
really weird. I don't know, quite a few voices. So yeah,

(18:04):
to go in blind to a place and to just
say script, we're gonna film a documentary too, we don't
I'll ever see the light of day, but here it is, right,
it turned out to be a pretty good night.

Speaker 4 (18:15):
Now, that's that's awesome.

Speaker 1 (18:16):
And you know the spirits there, you know, you said
they could be kind of shy because, like you said,
nobody's ever to your knowledge, ever tried to really reach
out to them, so that I'm not really used to that. So,
I mean, it's awesome that you captured some stuff, whether
you know, at a distance rat in your face, that's
still awesome to capture something at a place that hasn't

(18:38):
really been investigated.

Speaker 4 (18:39):
So so what are some And I know you said
you want to brush you mount.

Speaker 2 (18:44):
That was your first time there, right, that was my
second time there.

Speaker 4 (18:47):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (18:48):
I went back in November last year for the first time,
and so I decided to put together a trip because
uh Lee and Regina and a bunch of my friends
never been there. I was the only one I have
kind of our our close group who had been, and
so we set up a trip and we all split
it because it Brushy is expensive.

Speaker 2 (19:06):
It's like seventeen hundred bucks.

Speaker 3 (19:07):
Yeah, and so we luckily found enough people that it
was like one hundred and some dollars peace, I think
one hundred and forty five dollars a piece. And we
went out there and a hotel room in Harriman. Yeah,
Me and Austin kind of went off onto our own
thing with filming.

Speaker 2 (19:21):
Man.

Speaker 3 (19:22):
We had some incredible things happened. The second film that
we did was at also in jail and Frank Zuch
you oh, yeah, that's right. Yeah, that was the second
short form we did, and we had a lot happened there.
That was interesting place to investigate, especially when we split up.
We had a lot to happen. But yeah, Brushy, man,
that place is insane. Anybody that's never been there, like,

(19:43):
find a way to go, get a group of ten
people to go. I don't think you have more than
ten people, but you can, you know, you can work
it out to where it's affordable.

Speaker 1 (19:53):
And that's for the complete overnight to wear you're they're
like four or five of the morning.

Speaker 4 (19:58):
And I know when I went, they had a.

Speaker 1 (20:00):
Cheaper option where you're only there for like five or
six hours. And how even when we went for that
amount of time, we had so much stuff going on
it was unreal and we had nothing to document with
but a digital recorder. It's just those personal experiences. And uh,
that's a place I've been wanting to go back to.
My wife really wants to go, and so hopefully we

(20:23):
can get back up there. So what was some interesting
stuff that happened at the Old Stone Jail?

Speaker 3 (20:29):
Now the olds In Jail, there's a I've investigated there
many times. It's not done many public events at the
Old Sun Jail. I love Billy and Elizabeth and all
them up there with Whiskey Tago, Fox Rot. They're all
awesome and Billy's the also the director of the museum
and just a great group of people. And for anybody
then I know you have we never put out the
museum part of the documentary, part of episode.

Speaker 2 (20:52):
We just did the jail.

Speaker 3 (20:53):
We filmed the museum, but nothing really happened that was anything,
so we just we decided not to waste our time
editing it.

Speaker 2 (21:02):
But in the jail, we.

Speaker 3 (21:06):
There, we had voices and knocks on command and things
like that.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
Upstairs.

Speaker 3 (21:13):
We caught upstairs, in one of the rooms of the
jailer's quarters that took to the jail, there's this Confederate
graffiti on the wall where they kept Confederate soldiers in
there as prisoners. There used to be a jail selling
there and they have plexiglass over the over the graffiti
to help save it. And it's really dominant, like they

(21:34):
drew faces and things. It's not just signed names, but
they drew faces and things and these cartoon faces and stuff.
But we were up there asking about the Confederate soldiers
and we got quite a few EVPs that were pretty
loud and clear.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
Uh.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
There are a couple of times where we heard the
voices in the room ourselves, between me and Austin, and yeah,
it seemed to be it was. It was pretty active.
It's pretty interesting night. I mean when you go in,
you know, especially to film when you're only filming one night.
Like TV shows typically they're at a location three or

(22:08):
four nights filming, right, So we're going in hoping that
we catch something one night, you know, And so to
even even get a few good EVPs or we had,
we got a lot of footsteps that you can hear
on there as well, and so to to just get
one or two pieces of evidence in the thirty forty

(22:28):
five minute episode that we put out, it's pretty good.
But to have all that happened to us was yeah,
And people like, it's not that you're you're not gonna
get the Holy Grail, You're not gonna get Shadow Figure
anything like that. But like I said, for us, just
going there for eight hours into this gap, right, Yeah,

(22:49):
I think we had eight hours.

Speaker 2 (22:50):
I think we were there for five, right.

Speaker 1 (22:53):
I know, I've been there a couple of times and
the first time we went like it was like nothing,
nothing was happening. And you know when we went back
the second time, yeah, it was of course way more
active and we had a lot of uh, equipment interference
and stuff, which was really interesting. I don't know if

(23:16):
you've seen a couple of little short clips that I've
put out, Uh, it's been probably over a year ago now,
but uh, we had Josh set up in one of
the sales. You know, he was handcuffed and all this stuff,
and he was doing an ESTA session and you just
hear this random song clip of a song just play
out of nowhere, and of course everybody's phones is on

(23:40):
airplane and so, and it was so short. We were
all like, if that was actually somebody's phone, it would
have played probably longer. They would have had to pull
their phone out, unlock it, pull up the app, turn
the song off. This played for like half a second. Yeah,
the songs it said just ae swinging. And what makes

(24:01):
it really interesting is wrapped before that, my wife had asked,
you know, who's up here or who's here something like that,
and Josh comes to me and says boys, and right
after that it says just a swinging. So we were like,
maybe they're referencing, you know, somebody that might may have
been hung somewhere or something like that.

Speaker 4 (24:23):
And it was just it was really weird.

Speaker 1 (24:25):
And then uh a little while later, like after that
session had ended, Uh, like the spirit the spirit box
we had was dead, so Josh was using necrophonic on
his phone. I had the spirit box in my in
my pocket this whole time. And while we're telling Josh
you know about that clip of that song, we started

(24:46):
hearing the statue part of the spirit Box.

Speaker 2 (24:49):
Like what the fuck?

Speaker 4 (24:50):
Man? So I'll pull it out of my pocket and
it's and it's on, and we couldn't get it to
work when.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
We were getting ready to set up, like the batteries
fort had us, well, I'm not to go change batteries, well,
just use the necrophonic and I'm sitting there holding the
power button down. It won't it like will not turn off,
Like I can't get it to turn off. We eventually
had to pull the batteries out just to get it
to stop. And it was, like I said, it was
in my pocket for forty five minutes. And you'd figure

(25:17):
with me moving around if it was gonna turn on,
And it probably should have done it while I was
moving around and not just standing completely.

Speaker 3 (25:23):
Still, right, and you would you definitely would have heard
of it. I mean, these things that's wild white noise.

Speaker 4 (25:28):
Right, it was. It was really weird, but it was
a fun night.

Speaker 1 (25:31):
And then it's there towards the end like, uh, I
don't remember what sale I was in, but I was
doing the as session and this is only the second
time this has happened to me. Whoever was coming through
and communicating like started affecting the way I was feeling.
Like I started getting kind of antsy and like I

(25:51):
started tearing up, and they could, you know, they could
tell something was going on, so they pulled me out
of it, but like I didn't want to leave the cell,
Like Josh basically had to pick me up and like
carry me out because I was like, I don't.

Speaker 4 (26:04):
Want to leave.

Speaker 3 (26:05):
Yeah, That's one of the only places I've ever been affected.
And the interesting thing was this is the last time.
It was the last public go something we did there
last year, and I was upstairs with five other people
where the nasty Spirit Terry is. For anybody that doesn't
know Olds and Jail upstairs and the Oltsun jail, there's

(26:27):
a nasty spirit. They think his name is Terry, and
he likes to touch women inappropriately, even undoing their brawls
and things like that. I've heard that account from several
independent women don't even know each other. That's pretty interesting.
But we're up there and we don't provoke or anything,
but we're trying to get him to talk to us,

(26:48):
and I felt like I could not take a full breath,
and I felt like somebody had like a hold of
my spine, like from the inside, and like I couldn't
completely inflate my lungs because someone putting pressure on him.

Speaker 2 (27:01):
And so I told everybody, and we were we were.

Speaker 3 (27:02):
We had a GeoPort, so a portal, you know where
you have the rever pedal and all that stuff with
the spear box going through. It's all you hear is
the voices come through. You don't hear the switching of
the radio stations. And so I told everybody that I
was with. I was like, you know, I need to
go downstairs, like I need to remove myself from a situation.
And Elizabeth was up there, so I left all the

(27:23):
people with her because she's an investigators. Whiskey tang, a
fox trot and some other of them with her, and
my cousin was there. I got downstairs and go outside
and I'm out there kind of grounding myself, smoking a cigarette,
just kind of chilling, and I feel better, like within
two or three minutes of being outside, just feel fine.
And I felt fine before then. So I go and

(27:44):
get them because it was about time to end the night,
and they told me that when I when I went downstairs,
went outside, my cousin Brian said, why are you messing
with my cousin? And they said in a full sentence
across the GeoPort, a voice said, he started at first. Well,
I've been there multiple times and I've never provoked him.
But I think he's mad because I have a picture
of what I think is his face, and it's this

(28:05):
green face in the hallway up there, and there's no
way I can't explaining it. I'm not saying it's him,
but I think it's him, and I think he's mad
because I caught him on film it is And he said, yeah,
he started at first, and then come to find out,
I started talking to Lee because Lee was was with
a different group that night, lead a different group, and

(28:26):
he had a similar experience when he was up there
and had to remove himself from the building. Wow, And
we you know you don't compare nose to the right,

(28:48):
or had there other than in the museum. We're getting
ready for a public or something one night, and the
upstairs used to be a They used to make clothing
up there, and there was a lady who kind of
was the overseer. They believed that still is there. Well,

(29:10):
she I was walking back toward the stairs and I
heard a voice behind me, and it was just that
feeling like I needed to hurry up and get back downstairs.
But it felt like she was right behind me, and
I couldn't tell what she said, but she was kind
of shoeing me out of her space, is what it
felt like to me, because the hair in the back
and I kind of hurriedly went down the stairs. Because
you know, we're all really brave when we're in the

(29:30):
big group, but when you're by yourself and something like
that happens, you put a little giddy up in your step.

Speaker 1 (29:35):
Right, all right, So let's talk a little bit about
the nighthouse. How did this whole thing come about? How
did you find out about this property? How did you
just we'll talk about this place. So, how how did
you find the place first?

Speaker 4 (29:50):
Uh?

Speaker 3 (29:50):
It was kind of a whirlwind thing. One night, I
was late night. I was talking to Austin, who I
filmed with, on the phone and I was scrolling through
Facebook where we talking were talking about filming and things
like that, and just you know, Facebook suggests pages for you. Well,
they suggested this page. I don't know why old houses

(30:10):
fifty thousand dollars and beyond or fifty thousand dollars and beyond.
And then they have another one that's called old houses
one hundred thousand dollars and beyond. So I went and
started looking through these old houses. Me and Austin had
been thrown around the idea, hey, you know, we start
making money on YouTube. Maybe just just bullshitting a pipe dream, right,
we start making money on YouTube, maybe we can buy

(30:32):
our own location whatever, And this website popped up. So
I went to the website, was looking through all the
old houses that were for sale around the country and
realized how cheap they were. The younger generation apparently wants
nothing to do with an old house unless it's already
fixed up and like modernized or whatever. They don't want
to put any work into it. So these older houses

(30:54):
all around the country are going from insanely low prices.
And the Nighthouse was on there, and so I thought, well,
there's a certain criteria that I'd want because I don't
want to leave my house where I live now and
move anywhere, And so I had a certain critera had

(31:14):
to be within two hours where we live, so it's
easy to go travel things like that. Also, if the
house has a name, it probably has a pretty good history,
you know what I'm saying. And so I actually talked
to my husband, Roger, because it's a big investment. I mean,
I'm talking cheap houses, but i'm talking cheaper than three
or four hundred thousand. I mean you're talking about still

(31:36):
one hundred thousand dollars or more, you know, on a
lot of these older houses, especially the big ones like
the Night House. And I threw the idea to him
and he kind of rattled it around because he's the
one that takes care of the money in our marriage,
not me. I'm not good with money, So he kind
of rattled it around, and I showed him some of
the houses and how cheap they were and that it would.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
Be a good investment.

Speaker 3 (31:58):
That I kind of laid out my business plan to him,
and he thought it was a good idea, and he said, well,
let's just look around and see what we can find,
what we can afford, you know that type of stuff.

Speaker 2 (32:09):
And the Nighthouse was the very first one look at it.
It's one of those crazy things.

Speaker 3 (32:18):
And I've heard a lot of other location owners say
this in interviews and things. But when we left there
after looking at the property, we both were already talking
like we already owned it, what we wanted to do
through the house, all this other stuff, and so we
boach just kind of have that feeling. It was a
very welcoming feeling coming into the house, like we were

(32:39):
like it was home, right. And so that was in
February of this year, and we said, well, we'll look
at some other properties and see, you know, our options
and how much money you want to spend and things
like that, because we want to spend a certain amount
on the house but then still have enough over to

(33:01):
do any repairs or anything like that that you'd be done.
And so we put an offer. We gave them an offer,
and they turned it down, and so we said, all right,
well we'll go look at some other houses, and and
we did, and we just kept coming back to the
Nighthouse and I just kept looking at pictures of it,
and I even started diving into the history before there

(33:24):
was even a guarantee that we're going to buy the place.

Speaker 2 (33:26):
Right, So come.

Speaker 3 (33:27):
April, we we're like, well, let's let's go back to
the table and offer them give them another offer. Well,
they didn't like that offer either, so they did not
I said, all right, that's fine, and we went to
Indiana and looked at another house. Well, while we were
up there for a four day weekend, the realator for

(33:51):
their relator actually contacted our relator and said, uh, we
have an offer to give your client. Well, that normally
doesn't happened. You don't really know how people selling come
to you and say here's a lower offer. They drop
our price down, and so they were motivated sal So
they dropped their price down, and we haggled with them
and got got it down to what we thought was

(34:12):
the fair price and bought it at the end of April.
We sign the paperwork and been working on it for
almost four months now to get to finish up the
renovations that the previous center was doing. They had actually
moved out of the house in twenty twenty two. They
bought it in twenty fourteen. They moved out of the
house in twenty twenty two and hadn't lived there since then.

(34:35):
The guy that owned it, he got he's an engineer,
and he got a job offer from Disney and Anaheim, California. Wow,
And that was his dream job, and he told us
it was a choice between his dream job and dream house,
and he said, I can always buy another dream house
with the dream job. So they moved out there. They
took care of the house, they kept the power on
and things like that. They didn't let it run down.

(34:57):
But he didn't finish a lot of the projects, a
lot of the things that needed to be finished, and
so we've had to do that, which is fine. That's
one of the reasons we got the house for a
way cheaper price and what they're asking as well, and
that's kind of was our talking points, like, well, we
have to finish all this stuff you started. But as
far as the inside the house, most of it was
done except for the what's going to be the new

(35:18):
kitchen area and then the office area, which the office area,
they ended up putting a wing on the house that
goes from the dining room to what was the summer kitchen.
So all these older houses had summer kitchens that were
separate from the house, so in the summer they're cook
out there and it didn't heat the house up. Also,
they caught on fire, it didn't burn the whole house down, right,

(35:40):
So the summer kitchen is now connected to the house.
The summer kitchen will be our office, and then you
walk through like a laundry room, mudroom area, and then
through like a galley kitchen, long skinny kitchen, and then
into the actual house structure itself. But it was built
between eighteen fifteen and eighteen twenty. The house is over
two hundred years old. It is the oldest structure standing

(36:05):
structure in Hawkinsville, Kentucky, and Christian County, Kentucky, so the
entire county. It is in the top fifteen oldest structures
in Kentucky. So don't know who built it. Nobody's ever
found a deed to say who built it. But whenever,
back then, if you built a house in your own
land that didn't generate a deed, you didn't know. Indeed,

(36:28):
you just built the house. It only generated a deed
when it got sold to somebody else. But when it
got sold to the next people, the original owner's name
wasn't on the deed because there's no reason for their
name to be on the deed. It's just a new owner, right,
So don't really know who built it. It was built in
the federal style. It's a very flat, square brick house.
It is an interestingly built house though that you don't

(36:50):
see very often.

Speaker 2 (36:51):
It is a.

Speaker 3 (36:54):
It's what they call a split level or level and
a half the bottom windows that you see ground level,
that's actually the base. The first floor technically is you
go up the front steps, the smaller porch on the
front and that's where the fancy parlor is.

Speaker 2 (37:08):
The four your.

Speaker 3 (37:10):
Around the side when you come in where the big
columns are the portico there that was at at a
layer time, probably eighteen eighties, and that's actually the ground level.

Speaker 2 (37:19):
So the house is six levels.

Speaker 4 (37:21):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (37:22):
Yeah, it's very weirdly built until you go in to
the house, Like I did a tour video that I
put up online, and it's still confusing until you actually
go in the house and see the layout. The very
bottom level is the cellar and you're actually you're underground
and it's a huge cellar. And then you go to

(37:42):
the basement level. Then you go to the ground level,
which is where the basement has two rooms in it
and you have what would have been the winter kitchen.
The winter hearth is in the basement, this big giant
hearth that's deep that they would have had like the
swinging pots that they cooked in the winter time because
they help heat the house. You go to the ground floor.
You have two bedrooms, then you have the dining room,

(38:06):
a modern bathroom, and then that's where the kitchen and
the summer kitchen come off of the Off the dining room,
excuse me, you go up another flight of steps, short
flight of steps, and that's where you get to the
parlor in the four year for the front door, and
the parlor is massive, but that's where they would have entertained,
you know, guess and things, and the knights who owned it.

(38:28):
It's called the Night We named it the Nighthouse. It
was known as the Knight Rogers House. We decided to
just call it the Nighthouse. And that's K and I
g h T. Because they they were there for almost
one hundred years. So their family is the predominant family
and the predominant history there. But that has been changed
me in time. So anyway, you go to the parlor

(38:48):
level and you go up another weird set of pie
shaped steps that are very skinny and twists at the
same time, so it's very like funhouse effected. You got them,
and there's a guest suite up there that was turned
into it. There's a modern bathroom up there with like
a living room and a bedroom that was rented out
in the fifties sixties as an apartment. So there's a
door that goes outside that used to have a deck

(39:10):
out there that had stairs going down, and then you
gop the final set of stairs. There's about the eight
or nine steps they go up to the attic, and
the attic runs the full length of the house, but
only half the house because the ceilings in the in
the area that's the guest suite are up to the
roof right so, and the ceiling and the house has

(39:30):
twelve foot ceilings in it as well, so it's over
five thousand square feet. It's massive house. Yeah, And you
don't get the scale from the pictures either. There's one
picture we took with me standing beside the big white
columns on the side, and I'm six foot tall and
I'm a big guy in it dwarfs me, and that
kind of made people understand how big the house is. Right,
and it sits on right now. It sets on almost

(39:52):
three acres that win in Yeah, and originally it's set
on three hundred acres. I have a map from eighteen
seventy eight. Yeah, I have a map from eighteen seventy
eight that I had printed out that's hanging on the
wall that shows the house and all the acreds that
they owned back in eighteen seventy eight when the Night
family owned it. As far as the history, there were

(40:13):
several families that owned it for brief periods of time
throughout the eighteen twenties and thirties. There's some conjecture about
when the Night family bought it. Throughout my history I'm
going through, they've always said that the Knight family bought
in eighteen sixty. I don't believe that from all I'm
looking at throughout the history and things, I believe with

(40:33):
eighteen forties is when they bought it, because there's not
any other records of anybody else owned the house in
eighteen forties, and that is when the JB. Knight and Eliza,
his wife started their family. Their first time was born
in eighteen forty five, and they ended up having seven kids,
and they had them every couple of years after eighteen

(40:54):
forty five, So it wouldn't make sense that, Okay, by
eighteen sixty all of their kids were born, so Why
would they buy a big house like that after they
already had seven kids, right for one. That doesn't make
any sense to me. So it made sense that when
they started their they were rich because JB. Knight's father,
RB Knight, he was a huge landowner thousands of acres,

(41:20):
and he died in the early eighteen forties and he
made JB the executive his will, and JB inherited most
of his wealth and inherited land all around Kentucky, Illinois, Indiana, Ohio,
and had dealings everywhere. And JB was also an attorney
in Hopkinsville, and he more so was a real estate

(41:43):
magnet than an attorney. He bought and sold in houses
and things. And in eighteen thirties he owned a house
in Elton, Kentucky that actually burned down and he rebuilt
it and then I have paperwork where he resold it.
But anyway, the history to me is pointing more towards
the eighteen forties.

Speaker 2 (42:00):
Ammed it.

Speaker 3 (42:02):
Up until the very last ascendant died in nineteen forty one,
is when it was sold to the Rogers family, who,
funnily enough, the entire Night family, all the men were
lawyers in the Nights, all the sons were five sons
were all lawyers, and whether they practice law or not,
they're still all lawyers. So then the Rogers family comes

(42:24):
in and buys it in the late nineteen forties and
they're a family of lawyers. The majority of it's been
owned by lawyers. But the Rogers family lived there from
the late nineteen forties until twenty fourteen. Wow, and that's
when the people we bought it from bought it. But

(42:44):
extensive history. There are none of the original buildings are
on the property. The only original structure that's left on
the property that we know of so far is there's
an outdoor seller that is at least six foot deep
stack stone, and we still haven't figured out what that's for.
But there's also rumors of tunnels, and there is evidence

(43:07):
in this stack stone cellar that's completely detached from the house.
It's about fifty feet from the house. Inside underneath a shed.
There used to be a floor in the shed and
it's caved in.

Speaker 2 (43:17):
Now. We've got to clear that out where you can
get down in there.

Speaker 3 (43:19):
But I've gone down in there and there's a You
have all the stack stone, but in one area you
have one flat, perfectly square stone that looks like it's
covering up maybe a hole like an entrance to the tunnel.
But a lot of people we've talked to there there's
a tunnel. There's a tunnel there that's going from the
house to there, and then on the other side of
the house there is a tunnel that supposedly went and

(43:39):
came out across the road. And the road that runs
in front of the night House has been there probably
since the early eighteen hundreds, right, and so probably when
the house was built, that road was there. And so
there's a series of sinkholes that are in a line
that would suggest a tunnel. So Billy from Olso in

(44:00):
jail and sim's kind of historic study. We're gonna have
him come out because he does ground penetrating radar. We're
gonna have him come out to see if we can
prove these tunnels are there. As far as the long
tunnel that went under the road and come out in
the woods across the street, the only reason for that
would have been a underground railroad.

Speaker 2 (44:16):
Right that.

Speaker 3 (44:19):
Hopkinsville was occupied by the Union and the Confederates back
and forth during the Civil War, and the nighthouse played
a role for both of them. There's evidence that the
basement he's used as a hospital, but not for wounded
soldiers of the Confederacy, but for six soldiers. There was

(44:41):
a there was a plague that kind of went through
the ranks and he killed three hundred Confederate soldiers in Hopkinsville. Yeah,
and they used the Nighthouse basement. They didn't have a
formal hospital in Hopkinsville. It was one of those things
where they had doctors, but they would come to your
house have a formal hospital. And so they treated a
lot of those soldiers and a lot of them in
the basement of the Nighthouse.

Speaker 4 (45:01):
Wow.

Speaker 3 (45:02):
And yeah, and they use other houses too. But there's
also some stories that I've heard were some generals and
things from the Union state at the Nighthouse because it
would have been a prominent house and prominent They were
prominent members of the society, so that would have been
a place that the generals would want to stay. Also,
with them owning so much land, it'd be easy for

(45:24):
the Confederates and the Unions are soldiers to camp out
on their three hundred acres and the generals, the important
people stay in the house. So so much history with
this house. It's insane I'm just scratching the service now.
So much history with his family and things that they did.
One of the sons was in eighteen eighties, he became

(45:47):
the president of the Western Kentucky Lunatic Asylum, which is
only about two miles from the house down the street,
and it's still an operation day. They call it Western
State Hospital now, but it's still a mental institution to
this day. And he was the president from eighteen eighty
three until nineteen oh six. So they're a very prominent family.
They're very rich. The house came with two books of letters,

(46:11):
and I wish I had one here with me. Two
photo albums full of original letters from the Knight family,
original handwritten letters of all matter of business and things,
and ledgers and things like where they would run a
tab at the hardware store. And so for every dollar

(46:33):
that they spent back then is equivalent to about forty
dollars today with the equation, and they were dealing in
thousands of dollars back then, so you're talking about forty
to fifty. I even have one where they were dealing
with like three or four thousand dollars, so you're talking
about one hundred grand in one transaction, one business deal. Yeah,

(46:54):
Jamie Knight. He also owned a three story brick building
in Chicago. When the great fire happened in eighteen seventy
one that burned down Chicago, you know, the one I
always hear about the cow kicked over the liner or whatever.
He owned a three story tenant building and he sent
his second oldest son, he was an attorney, to Chicago.
He was twenty five at the time, and they called

(47:15):
him John Junior, and he went up there to see
the oversee the rebuilding of the building because that made
him a lot of money because they rented rooms out
in this big, big, three story tenant building. And he
never came back from Chicago. He stayed up there and
he died in nineteen twenty nine. And he became a
very prominent lawyer in Chicago with his law firm, and
became a very big real estate magnet in Chicago as well.

(47:38):
Was very well known. He's the only member of the
family that I actually have pictures of that I found
so far. Yeah, and JB and I ended up diying
in eighteen eighty, but his family continued to live in
the house, like I said, until nineteen forty one and Yeah,
his wife followed suit I think in eighteen eighty seven,
and then two of their kids, Charlie and Ida were

(47:59):
both like flong bachelor's or bachelor they're never married, never
had kids. They lived in the house together. Charlie was
the one that was the president of the mental institution
and he died in early nineteen twenties, and then Ida
died in nineteen thirty eight. And their youngest brother, Thomas,
he died in nineteen thirty nine. And the house was

(48:21):
left to the oldest grandson, Leon Knight Harding, and he died.

Speaker 2 (48:25):
In nineteen forty one. Wow.

Speaker 3 (48:27):
And the sad thing is when he died, they opened
the house up and auctioned every piece of furniture off
in the house. So there's only one original, known, original
piece of furniture from the Knight family and it's at
this Circle Society. Oh wow, Yeah, so that's the history.
I could talk about the history for two more hours, right,

(48:49):
refront down.

Speaker 1 (48:51):
Now, how did you determine it was haunted? Like, had
you heard before you bought it it was haunted or
did you just kind of have that feeling? How did
you figure out it was home on it?

Speaker 3 (49:01):
It was just kind of that feeling when we walked in.
Like like I said, it's a very welcoming feeling, but
it was also that it was also a feeling of
you're being watched. But also before we bought it, I
had two dreams, very lucid dreams where in the first
one I was talking to JB and Eliza Knight and

(49:22):
we were actually sitting Me and Roger were sitting on
the couch in the parlor. When we went looked at
the house, there was no furniture in the parlor with
all the furniture you see we put in there. So
we were sitting on the couch in the parlor talking
to this man and this woman that was JB and
Eliza Knight, and the woman did most of talking, but
it was very lucid, and I remember her telling us,

(49:46):
we believe you're the right owners for this house to
tell the history and to tell our story and keep
our history alive. And so that was the first dream.
The second dream I have was very lucid as well,
and she was showing me around the house and telling
me different things about out the house, and that was
when I was like, yeah, this is definitely the place
for us. I've talked to other location owners as well,

(50:09):
like Ernie Pack was telling me they on the ditto
house in up there in West Point, Kentucky, him and
Denise and from pac Man Paranormal and he said they
both had dreams about the house before they bought it,
and so just that feeling and things like that happening,
and just weird synchronicities happening before we even knew we're

(50:29):
going to buy the house. And then from day one,
the same day that we signed the paperwork at the
Water's office, we got the keys and went over to
the house about four o'clock that evening and I went
into the bathroom to use the bathroom, and somebody knocked
on the door, just one knock on the bathroom door,

(50:50):
and I said, you know, I'll be out in a minute,
because we were there. It was me and Roger and
his parents and his aunt. His aunt was our real
estate agent, and we were showing them the house because
they'd never seen it. And I came out thinking it
was one of them eating used the bathroom and they're
all the way across house. So that was day one.
Within the first hour in the house, We've had lots
of things happened since then to us, and on video,

(51:13):
there's a couple of videos up. I think I have
three videos up now, things that have been captured on
the cameras. But Memorial Day, me and Roger were in
the house by ourselves, putting together beds, and we're in
the bedroom on the ground floor, and from up in
the parlor we heard a woman's voice say an entire
sentence and we couldn't tell what she was saying, but

(51:34):
she said five or six words and the entire sentence,
and they echoed through the house. Even Roger's parents, who
aren't into the paranormal, but they're helping us work on
it because his dad is a master carpenter. There's a
cross space in the basement well down in the parlor
that goes across the house for all like all the
plumbing and stuff. It's about three foot by three foot.
He was down there one day by himself working on plumbing,

(51:56):
and he said he heard what sounded like it was
coming from the basement or the for the seller, a
man and a woman having a conversation. We couldn't tell
what they were saying. So they've even heard things like that.
We've heard footsteps I've heard voices and footsteps, and I've
been in the house by myself. I the first time

(52:18):
I spent the night there, we went and did kind
of a mini investigation with my friend sin Trader hill
EVP pre normal. Her and her husband Greg came and
spent the night, and some noises woke me up in
the middle of the night, and then me and Austin
investigated and just me and him and he was in
sleeping in one bed in one room and I'm in

(52:39):
the other bedroom, and I heard what sounded like a
door slam. That's what woke me up. It was that
loud wow. And there's two doors that go in the bathroom.
One comes from the fourier and one comes from the bedroom.
I sleep in it. So I thought Austin maybe accidentally
slammed the door, and he's going into the bathroom. Now
the door's open. He's in bed, and when I woke up,

(53:00):
it sounded like shuffling.

Speaker 2 (53:01):
In the room.

Speaker 3 (53:02):
One He's moving around in the room, and I was
just like, look, we investigated for six hours. You had
your chance, Like you know, I'm gonna go back to sleep.
But yeah, all kinds of things have happened since.

Speaker 2 (53:14):
Excuse me.

Speaker 3 (53:15):
Also, the first time we talked to the neighbor next door,
him and his wife have lived there for thirty years
and he refuses to go in the house. He's been
told by many people, including the previous owners, about having
them having experiences. And yeah, and so now we're known
as the ghost people by the neighbors. They're really good neighbors.

(53:36):
We did ask the previous owner at the closing. He
flew in from California and his wife didn't get to
come with him for whatever reason. Well, we asked him
about her normal and he told us very hesitantly that
he didn't have any experiences, but his wife had. But
it seemed like he did have experiences, you know what
I'm saying, But he just do want to talk about him,
but he said his wife did. So then the neighbor

(53:58):
told us that apparently his life had told the neighbors
about a lot of experiences that she had had in
the house, from seeing full body apparitions to all kinds
of stuff. So, wow, the crazy things happened to me
so far. And I think this is because they're getting
comfortable with me when we come in to the house.
When we go up there, we tell them how when
we leave it to go to lunch with them, by

(54:19):
when we leave for the night, well say, hey, we'll
be back tomorrow. We talked to them like they're still
you know, they're human, and I think they're getting comfortab
with me. So the other night I was locking up
when we were leaving, and when you go up the staircase,
there's a landing before you go into the parlor, and
out of the corner of my eye, I saw a
woman standing on the on the landing up there with

(54:43):
her hands on the rail, looking down at me. And
I knew not to turn too quickly because they tend
to disappear when you do that, and so I watched
her for about probably five or ten seconds out of
the corner of my mind. When I turned, she disappeared.
Of course she went there. But so they're kind of
getting a little more bold, I guess. Roger went to

(55:04):
lock up the house the other night and he shut
the door in between the dining room and the kitchen
area because the kitchen area is not fully air conditioned yet.
We haven't run all the ductwork and stuff yet, And
so when he closed the door and turned around, he's
walking through the dining room to leave, and he heard
three knocks on the door and he thought he had

(55:26):
locked one of us in there, because it's me and
my brother and my brother's girlfriend were up there as well,
and he opened the door and when he opened the door,
he could see us stand out of the yard to
the window. So even yeah, they're even getting comfortable with him,
and so yeah, lots of personal experiences. And then the
videos that are up. The one video of the missed
that was the first thing caught.

Speaker 4 (55:46):
That one is wild.

Speaker 2 (55:48):
That's five point thirty in the afternoon with the sun shining.

Speaker 4 (55:51):
Yeah, that one.

Speaker 1 (55:52):
When you posted that one, I was like, now I
watched it a few times and I'm just because if
I remember correctly, said the cam you having their emotion activity, right.

Speaker 2 (56:02):
Yeah, I've got them set up for motion and sound, so.

Speaker 1 (56:06):
It's only going to start recording when it, you know,
detects motion. So I'm like, that's really intriguing. I don't
I don't think I remember, yeah, seeing what time of
the day it was, but for it to be in
the middle of the afternoon, yeah, and to be that
prominent just kind of wiggle across and just kind of
fade away and I'm like, that's interesting. And then the

(56:26):
one you said just about a week ago of all
of what sounds like a bunch of stuff being shuffled
around and moving, that was really strange.

Speaker 4 (56:34):
And that was it. Yeah, didn't you say that was
the middle of the night.

Speaker 2 (56:37):
I think I think that was at twelve thirty at night.

Speaker 4 (56:39):
Yeah, yeah, so, and yeah, that's that's pretty wild.

Speaker 3 (56:43):
So the weird thing about the mist real quick, it
was in the middle of the day. The sun is
shining in the windows, the windows upstairs and no curtains
on some of them, but the window shining end the
beginning of where the video started to record, it was
in color view because the cameras automatically switch to night

(57:03):
vision right when it gets dark. What's in color full
color view? Because the sun shine in right before the
myss comes across the screen, it flips the night vision.
A minute or so after the MYSS goes across the screen,
it flips back from night vision and the color vision.

Speaker 2 (57:22):
So why did it do that?

Speaker 3 (57:24):
The camera right, Yeah, and then the sounds the video
I just put up of all the sounds, that's the
master bedroom downstairs, and that camera is on a it
was on the mantle with the fireplace, there's nothing behind it.
There's nothing behind it to be moved or or anything
off camera. The only thing that's behind it that would
be behind it, kind of to the left of it,

(57:44):
is a walking closet, but there's nothing in the walking closet. Huh,
And so there's nothing to be moved around, especially not
that loud.

Speaker 4 (57:53):
That's crazy.

Speaker 3 (57:54):
Yeah, so uh yeah, it's some interesting videos, but those
are up on on my TikTok page, the unseen panel
on TikTok and then also the nighthouse.

Speaker 2 (58:07):
On Facebook.

Speaker 1 (58:08):
It is around there, right, And like I said, the
one with the miss really really got me. So, what
initially are your plans for the house other than obviously
renovating it with you guys have done a ton of
work over these last few months, and just to kind
of watch the progression of everything you guys have done
between you know, putting new sighting on too, building like

(58:30):
a porch, doing this and that and getting all the
pieces put in there.

Speaker 4 (58:34):
Like, you've done a lot of work over the last
few months.

Speaker 1 (58:37):
So what's the ultimate payoff once you get this some
what's all the different plans you have for this place?

Speaker 3 (58:43):
So two weekends of the months, it'll be open for
panel investigation for Friday and Saturday night. You got two
price plans there. We're gonna do a half night, so
seven till three in the morning. If there's any local
teams that don't want to, you know, spend the night
for five hundred bucks. And that includes a whole list
of things that you won't find out other locations. I

(59:06):
took a poll the other day. Me as an investigator
renting locations kind of had already had an idea with
all the extras that I wanted to provide.

Speaker 2 (59:14):
I mean, we have high speed Wi Fi. We're gonna
have a fridge in a microwave for people to use.

Speaker 3 (59:17):
We'll have coffee, we'll have snacks available, we have beds
so when people The other price point is to rent
the house out for the whole night. But the house
is over five thousand square feet on three acres, so
you have plenty of places to investigate all night. There's
plenty of other perks too in there. I'm gonna do
a packet with the history in there, with names and

(59:38):
things to give to every team, just things like that.
Trying to go above and beyond so that you feel
like you're getting your money's worth when you come in.
The other price point is will be from seven at
night until nine the next morning, and that's seven hundred
and fifty bucks, and that you'll get a We have
beds for everybody sleeping. We have working bathrooms and showers.

(01:00:02):
We have we'll provide all of the linens, and you know,
the beds will be made for fresh linens and pillows,
and we have towels and things. If you need soap,
you know, shampoo or anything, we have all that to
provide as well. The only thing I can't do is
serve meals because you got to get the health department involved.
They got to come in and inspect the kitchen, and
then you gotta have fire walls and all this other
crap from codes. It's just way too expensive to deal with.

(01:00:25):
So the only thing I can provide is meals. But we'll,
like I said, we'll have a fridge full of drinks,
you know, soft drinks and bottle water. We have coffee,
we have snacks. The other thing that we'll have is
a charging station. We'll have a bay station with charging
stations so people can charge all their batteries and things,
and a place to come hang out in between, you know,
taking a break and yeah, so trying to do those

(01:00:49):
as soon as we can when the house is ready,
and jumping through all the hoops of the city as
well to make sure business is legit.

Speaker 2 (01:00:56):
And all that stuff. So that's what we're working on now.
That is very close.

Speaker 3 (01:01:01):
Probably in August is when I'll open that that all up.
But like I said, every other Friday and Saturday and
every other weekends just because I don't want to live.

Speaker 2 (01:01:10):
Up there on the weekends.

Speaker 3 (01:01:12):
It's an hour and a half from our house, which
is fine, but you know, if I'm if I'm going
up there on Friday for an investigation and then Saturday investigation,
are not coming home, you know, there's no reason to
come home, especially if they're both overnight until not Yeah so,
but yeah, every other weekend. I still want to have
a life too, but that money will go directly back
into the business to pay the bills and to help

(01:01:34):
us continue to remodel the place and fix the place up.
And then ultimate goal in a few years. There's lots
of things I want to do, but ultimate goal is
to become a wedding venue, an event ven you and
we'll build structure. We'll build a parking lot and build
you know, then barn and things like that on the property.
But just do all kinds of public ghost ogns there

(01:01:55):
I get. We get a whole bunch of I got
a bunch of stuff I want to do for Halloween
this year. Twice a month, we're going to open up
free to the general public to come in and take
history tours with myself. I'll take people through the house
and show them around and tell them the history. Yeah,
so kind of the ultimate goal is not the paranormal.
It's actually preserving the history of this house because it

(01:02:18):
is such a significant place in the community of Hawkinsville
with a significant two significant families, And so that's my goal,
is to share the history. The house has never been
really shared with the community. The last owners didn't do it.
They weren't planning on doing.

Speaker 2 (01:02:34):
Any of that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:35):
And like I said, I have two notebooks this stick
full of original letters from the Knight family.

Speaker 2 (01:02:39):
Wow, you never get that.

Speaker 3 (01:02:41):
I'm talking letters from them to them, have the original
envelopes and things like that.

Speaker 2 (01:02:46):
I have JB.

Speaker 3 (01:02:47):
Knight's original business card, Wow, copy of it. Yeah, it's insane.
The earliest letter in there that I found so far
as eighteen thirties. Yeah, it's awesome. I have a con
track with the contractor rode up to build the front board.
Jamie and I had the front porch built. Cost the
one hundred and ten dollars including materials. But yeah, the

(01:03:12):
house is just fascinating. Lots of history there and that
is what excited me. It's not just a paranormal, right,
I want people to come in, and I think the
spirits want to tell their story.

Speaker 2 (01:03:22):
Right.

Speaker 3 (01:03:23):
The Knights have been kind of lost to history, but
they are very predominant family for a long time in
the town, to the point that where they're not they
didn't have a family cemetery on the property. They're built
at Riverside Cemetery and that's where all the other prominent
town people are buried. But they don't have any headstones. Wow, yeah,
there's I think there's six family members buried there and

(01:03:44):
none of the had headstones.

Speaker 2 (01:03:46):
So I don't know. I'm gonna have.

Speaker 3 (01:03:47):
Billy go out there with the GPR as well to
see if the headstones have sunk, because sometimes they'll sink
in the ground. Especially Kentucky, you got lots of Saint
calls and caves and things, see if they've sunk in
the ground and we can dig them up. So if not,
then I wanted to raise the money to put a
big headstone there to commemorate the Knight family.

Speaker 4 (01:04:04):
Right, Yeah, that'd that'd be pretty awesome. So you have
quite quite a bit of stuff you want to do
with this place.

Speaker 1 (01:04:11):
And and like I said, it's been fun kind of
watching what you've been doing so far. And uh, I
don't think it's been formally announced on this show, but
it's been you know, announced on my other show and
the other shows involved. You know, yeah, my other podcast,
Beer Booze and Boogeyman, myself, Chris and Amanda, Gil and

(01:04:34):
Joey have all come. We're meeting for the very first time,
and we're going to be doing it at the Nighthouse.
We we've been we've had we had this idea about
doing uh, you know, because we do the live stream
show once a month, we've had this idea to do
it from a haunted location for a few months now.

(01:04:58):
And during the last episode of Life Beyond six Feet,
you know, I was talking to Christen, I was, you know,
I still really want to do that. I was like,
but it's going to be hard to find a place
that's going to meet all of our needs, right, you know, electricity,
Wi Fi heat, air, you know, it's gonna be hard
to find a location that's going to provide all of that.

(01:05:19):
And my first initial fault, because I absolutely love it,
I was like, Scott County Jail.

Speaker 2 (01:05:24):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:05:25):
And when I reach out to Chris, she's like, well,
we're fixing a get rid of the Wi Fi blah
blah blah.

Speaker 4 (01:05:31):
She goes, even if we kept it, it only.

Speaker 1 (01:05:33):
With the way that the jail's built and it doesn't
reach all the floors. I'm like, gosh shit, I'm like, okay,
right right, And then I thought, well, I was like,
what about the Thomas House Hotel. I was like, we'd
be able.

Speaker 4 (01:05:44):
To sleep there.

Speaker 1 (01:05:46):
And I got on their website trying to figure out
when they're when they were doing the ghost hunt weekends,
and we found a weekend and I told the guys.
I was like, look, I was like, we're gonna have
to either one we have to hope like hell that
nobody else is there Dre that weekend, or we have
to rent out every single room. And I'm like it's

(01:06:06):
gonna be slim to none for either one of those
to happen. I was like, I'll reach out to them.
I was like, but I doubt they would let just
us be there. And then I was like shit, I
was like, I know somebody that actually just bought a
place that's everything.

Speaker 4 (01:06:22):
I was like, it's gonna meet everything we need.

Speaker 1 (01:06:25):
I was like, I don't know why I didn't think
of this place before, I said, And I'm like, for me,
it's only like an hour twenty minutes away. And so
we plan on doing that September twenty eighth. As of
this recording, we uh have well, we had a go

(01:06:46):
fund me, but apparently we broke through rules about offering
perks and stuff, which I didn't realize that was against
their rules. Yeah, so you can't apparently on gofund me,
you can't offer your donors anything but a thank you.
I'm like, okay. So hopefully as of this recording, when
this comes out in a couple of weeks, we'll have

(01:07:06):
our Kickstarter up and going. It's actually you know, encourages
you to give back to your donors. We have a
whole list of tiers of some pretty amazing stuff we're
going to be sharing with people that donate to help
get us there, because, like I said, Kristien's coming all
the way from Washington State, Gil and Joey's driving over,

(01:07:29):
you know, eight or nine hours from North Carolina. So
we're trying to raise money for all of that to
get us there into The more important thing is that
for all of us to actually meet each other. Gil
and Joey, you're really good friends. So they've met each other,
but us collectively have never met in person. And so
when I told him about the night house, they're like, dude,

(01:07:50):
that's that's perfect. I was like, you know what, we'll
each have our own room to see if we decide
to sleep, you.

Speaker 4 (01:07:55):
Know this and that, And.

Speaker 1 (01:07:58):
Our plan is to much have camerons and mikes in
every room even when we're not in there. Yeah, people
can kind of when they're watching the investigation live. You know,
something's going on in this room and we're on the
other side. They could type in the chat, Hey, there's
something going on. Maybe somebody's to check it out. Right,

(01:08:19):
It's gonna be kind of like an RPG thing. They
pretty much get to control what we do. Yeah, so
at some point they're like, hey, Damien, go to the
basement for thirty minutes by yourself with only a flashlight.
So I'm gonna have to go down to the basement
for thirty minutes with only a flashlight. So yeah, and
we plan on kind of documenting everything from the moment

(01:08:40):
we leave our house to the moment we all meet.
And that's gonna be like extra perks for people to
if they donate so much, they can see all that
stuff and behind the scenes and all the setup. And yeah,
if it all comes together how we want to, it's
gonna be really fun for everybody involved, not just us,
because we want to give back to like all of
our viewers of all of our different shows. And you know,

(01:09:05):
there's a lot of people that's always wanted to investigate,
and this is a way for them to investigate without
ever leaving.

Speaker 3 (01:09:12):
Home, right and right in the middle Spooky season two, right,
so right at the end of September, first of October, right, So.

Speaker 1 (01:09:19):
It's gonna be really fun. And and there's one one
tier that if anybody really wants to actually actually in
person investigate with us, you know, they would have to
donate that amount of money. Of course, they would have
to get theirselfs there, but they would actually get to
be with us in person and investigate, right, So we're

(01:09:42):
offering that too. But uh, it's it's gonna be really fun.
I know everybody's excited about it. We're constantly brainstorming trying
to think of ways to promote this and and to
get the word out. And unfortunately we've had to kind
of revamp a couple of things because, like I said,
now they go it fund mes out the doors, and
now we're having to kind of incorporate other stuff. And uh, yeah,

(01:10:04):
it's gonna be really fun and and you know, we
really appreciate you letting us do it there and and
everything you you've you've offered up for us, and it's
gonna be really fun.

Speaker 3 (01:10:14):
Yeah, I know, I'm honored to have y'all, and uh yeah,
it's gonna be a lot of fun.

Speaker 1 (01:10:18):
And you know, I've done several investigations, so uh, they're
gonna be kind of looking at me for guidance because
Gill and Joey's never been an investigation. This would be
Christen's like six or seventh investigations, so she's still.

Speaker 4 (01:10:33):
Fairly new at it.

Speaker 1 (01:10:34):
So they're like, you've got to show us what to do,
and I'm like, well this, you know, there's really no
right or wrong way to really go about it. But
I'm like, I was like, you know, we'll well, I'll
get you guys kind of set up and really fun.

Speaker 3 (01:10:51):
With the Nighthouse being such a fresh place, it's gonna
be kind of an open canvas and see.

Speaker 4 (01:10:57):
And that's what I told them too.

Speaker 1 (01:10:58):
I was like, you know, once we get in there,
I was like, it's not gonna have been investigated too
many times. I was like, so it's still gonna be
kind of fresh and new to the spirits there too.
I was like, so hopefully it'll be a really fun
night for everybody involved.

Speaker 3 (01:11:13):
Well, and hopefully I can have you know, at least
a few teams through there before. And I have an
idea because I've investigated there twice already. Of course it's
my house, but but hopefully we can have some other
teams come through there before and I can say, hey,
this worked for them, you know, the spiritual more into
this or whatever. Because it's what people don't understand, especially

(01:11:34):
with the new location like that, that spirits have never
really been recognized, right right, They've just people have been
afraid of them, and so they don't know how to
use the equipment. They don't know how to It's a
learning thing, you know, that the same way we had
to learn how to use a rim pod or voice recorder,
you know, that type of stuff. So I've tried to

(01:11:54):
help that. Along with the two investigations I've done, I
will probably do another longer investigation before we open it
up completely to other teams. But like I said, I mean,
things are happening all the time, so I don't think
y'all have too much of a problem because, like I said,
they're kind of antsy to tell their story, and I've
kind of explained, hey, we're gonna have people coming in
here to hear your story and you'll have ample opportunity to,

(01:12:17):
you know, to express that. That's one That's one thing.
Also the reason I want to do I don't want
to open it just wide open, you know, to investigations
and just have it every the weekend, because I feel
like that's more respectful to the spirits as well.

Speaker 2 (01:12:29):
It's not like.

Speaker 3 (01:12:30):
Every weekend it's like dance Monkey Dance, like you know,
animal or something. They get a little bit of leeway too,
you know, you know, four teams a month at most.

Speaker 2 (01:12:39):
So yeah, I'm looking for y'all coming in.

Speaker 3 (01:12:42):
It's gonna be a lot of fun, and uh it's
gonna be interesting for me to be an observer and
I'll help you all as much.

Speaker 2 (01:12:49):
As you want to help you.

Speaker 1 (01:12:51):
And I think we even talked about, you know, I
guess I told him. I was like, I was like,
I'm sure Eric or his husband want will probably stay
there with us.

Speaker 2 (01:12:59):
I'll be there and uh I had.

Speaker 4 (01:13:02):
To explain to him.

Speaker 1 (01:13:02):
I was like a lot of places somebody usually stays
on site normally for like insurance purposes and stuff, and
they're like, oh, that's no problem. I was like, and
by this time, they're really going to know you. And
I was like, you know, if we're not really having
a lot of luck, I was like, we can always
bring them in to kind of say, hey, guys, let's
uh kind of uh I guess, kind of stir them

(01:13:23):
up if you will, And uh, so it'll be it's
gonna be fun and uh, we're really looking forward to it.
And like I said, we appreciate everything you've done that
the allowing us to come there and do this massive
project that we have on our hands.

Speaker 2 (01:13:38):
So yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:13:40):
Well, And one of the other things that that I
didn't like about locations that I didn't want to do
is I don't want to charge extra for people filming.
I think that's ridiculous because it's free advertisement for the house.
Why am I going to charge you extra when you're
going out busting your ass to advertise, you know, no
matter if you' y'all doing live stream or what y'are doing,
or if it's some big YouTube really comes in. Yeah,

(01:14:00):
they're making money off of it, But why am I
gonna charge them more, right when they're just gonna make
the house more popular and more people want to come,
you know, So I don't I don't agree with that.
And then also I don't agree with some of the
video policy stuff, like I understand some locations wanting a
video policy. I can understand, like some of the hospitals,
because there's still families in the communities that are connected
to those hospitals. So I don't want people coming in sane.

(01:14:22):
Demon's getting the history wrong with things like yeah, the
nighthouse is not as important. On the rule sheet number
one says there are no demons here, there are no
still walkers on the property, like excuse me, but if
somebody puts that out on a YouTube video and they
want to trumpet up the demons, whatever, it doesn't. It
doesn't hurt the nighthouse when we're the other you know

(01:14:42):
what I'm saying. So for me to be an asshole
and say, okay, I'm gonna have this rule where I
have to before you can put your video out, I
have to review it, now, that's ridiculous to me, especially
for a location like I own. It's a probably own house.
We're not a nonprofit. It's not a museum. But that's
another thing. Like every piece of just about every piece
of furniture in the house you can actually use, right,

(01:15:04):
And that's what I wanted to do as well. I
don't want a bunch of antiques. All the pieces looked apart,
but they're functional.

Speaker 2 (01:15:10):
You know. You can sit on the couches and things.
You don't have to set the floor unless you.

Speaker 3 (01:15:13):
Want to say things like that, Yeah you know, but
uh yeah, I don't want to. I don't want to
charge extra for filming nothing. Now, if there's a film
crew that was coming for three or four days, okay,
we'll work out a price.

Speaker 2 (01:15:26):
Of course, there's a.

Speaker 3 (01:15:26):
Big team that wants to do you know, I don't know,
Friday and Saturday night. Okay, we can work out a
better price than at fifteen hundred is what it would
cost them, you know whatever. But yeah, and I'm reasonable
like that. I'm not, you know, right, like no, you
have to pay, you know, but uh yeah, just trying
to get the place. And I appreciate y'all because y'a

(01:15:48):
are doing a lot of advertising as well. And you know,
like I told you, any way that I can help out,
let me know, and.

Speaker 1 (01:15:53):
Like I said, we're going to be and even after
the event's over, you know, we were talking about this
place like on this episode right here, this episode is
not going to disappear, and a year and a half,
if somebody clicks on this episode, they're like, all that
place sounds cool. Hell, that's right down the road. Let
me go check this place out. So it's like almost

(01:16:14):
like permanent promotion, I guess you could say, with with
with all these different yeah podcasts and stuff we're promoting
this place on.

Speaker 3 (01:16:22):
So it's a It all plays into the Google SEO
and the YouTube SEO. So when people search engine optimization,
that's what seo's for. And the more the name is
out there, the more the people it pops up for
people and more people can find it easy.

Speaker 1 (01:16:35):
So ay, so what what other than continue working on
the house.

Speaker 4 (01:16:41):
What what? What do you got coming up?

Speaker 3 (01:16:44):
Just more of season five of than seeing Paranormal and
then like I said, getting the house going with the
paranorm investigation stuff. And yeah, I mean the the nighthouse
is the it's a huge undertaking to take over a
location and do all the things we want to do
and continue to work on the house. We we have

(01:17:04):
about probably an acre of the property cleared right now
that is accessible. There's still almost two acres that aren't
that are wooded and that we need to and that
and that area is where the original structures were for
like the carriage house and things like that, and so
we want to least get some paths put through there

(01:17:24):
so you can walk in a big circle or something,
you know, until we can get a lot of more
of it cleared off. It's a lot of underbrush. We're
not even clear out like all the trees and things,
but we want the underbrush kind of gone. See can
kind of walk around and we can find out where
the a lot of the original you know, footprints of
those buildings hopefully were as far as foundation stones and
things like that, so we can mark those off and say, Okay,

(01:17:46):
we know this was probably a carriage house by the
size of it. You know, this was probably a you know,
smoke house or whatever. So things like that. But yeah,
it's it's constant work. I mean, you know, I have
to go there and mo every week, and we'd eat
and it's it's a massive we may have an acre
and a half clear off now, but it's a massive

(01:18:07):
place to moan, weed eat. It takes an entire day
by myself to to mow, and we eat everything, and
so and then we're constantly we need more, we need
even more to gain more property.

Speaker 2 (01:18:18):
So yeah, and then and then.

Speaker 3 (01:18:22):
Finishing up the drywall in the office area in the
summer kitchen, because that's where all hang out when teams
are in the house, because I'm kind of completely separate
from the house and that way I'm not bothering anybody,
not making any noise to you know, contaminate or anything
like that. And I'm and I'm right there if it
needs anything. And but yeah, I just continue. We've got
to get the kitchen finished. We've got insulation in there,

(01:18:45):
and the and the plumbing and the electrical is all done.
We just got to get draw well up there and
get it wallpapered and things like that. Right, So the
majority of the house is it's pretty good. It's just
some of these other things that you didn't get done
by the previous owner.

Speaker 2 (01:18:58):
It's kind of left hanging.

Speaker 4 (01:18:59):
There all right.

Speaker 1 (01:19:01):
So, now if people want to catch up on the
Unseen Paranormal podcast, how can they do that?

Speaker 2 (01:19:06):
I'm anywhere and everywhere.

Speaker 3 (01:19:08):
I mean the first I googled, like I google myself
every once in a while, just not myself, but the show, right.
I googled the show the other day in the first
seven pages of the Unseen Paranal podcast at this point,
so well, whether it's from me being on other people's shows,
it's or it's different episodes of the Unsaen Panormal. But yeah, Apple, Spotify,
even on YouTube. I don't do video, but you could

(01:19:30):
go listen to it on YouTube. All the episodes are
on there, and I've started something new. Once the podcast
host gets so full of episodes because I have so
many now one hundred and sixty five, it starts dropping
off the older original episodes so the first like seven episodes,
original episodes of season one, nobody can go back and
listen to now huh so uh Twice a month on Thursdays,

(01:19:52):
I'm gonna do you throw back Thursdays. And last week
I just put out the very first episode they ever
did with Alan Cercy and did throw back Thursday. So
every other week I'll do a Throwback Thursday with one
of those episodes. I've had people ask me, well, what
where's the original episode? Don't want to hear from the beginning,
you know, And I'm going to start putting those episodes
out and they'll they'll come out as they drop off,
because every time I put a episode out, it drops

(01:20:14):
another episode off at the beginning. So it was it
was it was weird to go back and listen to
the very first episode and see how far I've come
over the past five years in five seasons. So but
got a lot more great guests in season five coming
up that I've are already recorded, and I've got some
that I'm I've got scheduled to record. So excited about

(01:20:34):
just a another plethora of paranormal topics and things like that,
and talking about some new stuff and never talked about
on the show before too awesome that and uh yeah,
people can go on Facebook, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or x
on all of those LinkedIn as well. We also have

(01:20:55):
the Unseen Paranormal Lounge where I did a lot of
memes and things the show. But yeah, go go to
like subscribe on face on YouTube as well, and uh
I put up the Nighthouse videos, some of the Nighthouse
videos on YouTube on the on z Panormal channel, the
evidence videos, and then as far as the Nighthouse goes,
have a Facebook page where I put a lot of

(01:21:16):
photos up as we're doing things.

Speaker 2 (01:21:17):
We can go follow.

Speaker 3 (01:21:19):
It's been up for a month and a half and
there's eleven hundred followers, so people are very interested in
what's going on with the house and it's you know,
it's kind of cool to watch the evolution too.

Speaker 2 (01:21:27):
But we also have a website.

Speaker 3 (01:21:29):
It's The night k n I g h T House
ky dot com and we have all kind of merch
over there.

Speaker 2 (01:21:37):
Cool merch.

Speaker 3 (01:21:38):
This is one of the one of the things we
have one of the logos hell Yeah, Nighthouse and there's
hoodies and everything else, and I've made all the merch
as cheap as I can. Was still making a little
bit of money, right, so it's not gonna cost you
fifty dollars for a hoodie or a zip up jacket
twenty five thirty. You know, they're reasonable t shirt for
like fifteen bucks. And all that money for the merch

(01:22:00):
on there will go toward the nighthouse as well. We're
not a not we're a for profit business, but we're
very serious about, you know, keeping the house up, fixing
the house up. There's a lot more that needs to
be done to preserve the house. There's a lot of
wood that needs to be replaceds rotted and things like that. Right,
but also I have the restoration pages on there. And

(01:22:21):
then also when we ever get the it opened up
to the public ends of the paranormal, the website is
the place to go to to see all that and
book all that stuff.

Speaker 1 (01:22:30):
Oh yeah, well, Eric, like I said, I've been impressed
with like you, you and your husband and and all
your people that's been helping he's been doing. And a look,
