Ghost Adventures Investigation

      

      The popular ghost hunting team featured on the reality series "Ghost

      Adventures" investigated the Peabody Mansion in 2012. They brought UFC Fighter Brendan Schaub to investigate with them. The crew gets some pretty compelling evidence such as EVPs of a woman.

      The crew interviewed a few people before their nighttime lockdown of the Peabody Mansion. The first person they interviewed was Tim Schultz, who was a lottery winner. He used his money to start a production company. While working at the Peabody Mansion, he witnessed a man being pushed up high against a wall by an unseen force. He also claims that people have experienced being overcome by a spirit.

      Next they interviewed Nicole Zotti, an eyewitness who had a strange experience while she was on a tour of the mansion. She said that her fingers tingled in a little alleyway outside the mansion. The tour guide told her that in the 1970's there was rumored to have been an abduction of a woman who was then raped and killed by construction workers that were remolding the mansion. The body was believed to have been buried in the basement underneath the street and alleyway.

      Lastly, the crew interviewed a professor at the University of Colorado. He says the mansion has been many restaurants but they have always failed to succeed.

      Since the Peabody Mansion was previously a restaurant the crew decides to hire a couple of waiters to conduct an experiment.

      They set up equipment and hidden cameras on the hired staff to see if they have any experiences in the kitchen and in the other room where the crew get served a three course meal.

      Zak feels something touch his head and reacts to it. After reviewing the footage, one of the night vision static cameras show a strange anomaly shooting down into Zak's head, and then Zak reacts.

      Zak, Nick, and Aaron hear a disembodied voice of a female saying "waitress." The waitress in the other room says she feels eerie and that her hands are solid red for some unexplainable reason.

      The team decides to go downstairs and investigate. They all descend to the basement and use SB-7 radio device that scans through frequencies. Spirits are able to communicate through this device with their voices in the white noise mode. This is the area where it is rumored that a lady was buried after being raped and murdered by construction workers in the 1970's.

      They ask several questions and get many EVP's. Most of them are direct responses to the questions asked. One says a woman was raped, that it is violent there, and the last one says "street" Zak walks over to the area where straight above them is where the street would be located. He shines the flashlight on the area and the SB-7 device says "found it."

      The voice also says someone is scared. They ask who and the EVP says "Brendan." Brendan informs the guys that something touched his ankle. He is left alone to investigate and he claims he hears footsteps.

      Upstairs on the third floor, Nick feels cool wind blow on his face. The crew heads back down to the basement. They discover a small crawl space underneath the street. Zak snaps a photo and captures a strange purple mist image that looks like a woman's face. He snaps another photo, but the anomaly is not in the second photo.

      They contact the Denver police department. After reviewing the evidence, the police give them contact information of a company that assists local law enforcement and in the recovery of human remains. Detectives are considering opening a cold case file.
