Lykins: Naturally, we want to

We don't save them all.
Do they hang around afterwards?
Burkhead: My profession

This didn't meet the guidelines

I have never been more scared
in my life.

You're in grave danger.

Burkhead: Sixth floor. 116.
Copy that.
Narrator:
The call of a possible break-in
Goes to jerry burkhead,
an officer with
The u.S. Department
of homeland security --
Responsible for guarding
federal buildings.
Burkhead: It was probably
close to 3:00 a.M.
There was a sound alarm
going off
At a federal facility,
on the sixth floor.
These facilities
are locked down at night,
And there's really no federal
employees on board at that time.
Narrator:
The veteran officer puts
His life-long training
into practice.
I went into the u.S. Marine
corps when I was 18.
And when I got out
of the marine corps,
I decided, you know, my path
should be law enforcement.
♪♪
I checked all the doors.
They were all secured.
As I walked into the facility,
All you had on is
the emergency lights.
[ door creaking ]
It's creepy.
It's dark enough to where
you can see
Maybe 2 feet in front of you.
Narrator: With all employees
signed out of the building,
The place is dead silent.
The elevators
are turned off completely
At, like, 9:00 at night
and will not come back on
Till about 5:00 a.M.
In the morning.
♪♪
[ elevator bell dings ]
[ bell dings ]
[ ding ]
Man: So who else could
legally be in that building
Using the elevators?
Maintenance personnel are
usually in the bottom floor.
They usually don't touch
the top floors
Till around 5:00 or 6:00 a.M.
In the morning
Due to the fact
the alarm system's on.
[ elevator bell dings ]
[ bell dings ]
[ woman screams ]
I heard a sound coming
from the stairwell,
And then went ahead and made
my way to the stairwell door.
[ door creaking ]
♪♪
Didn't see anything.
♪♪
Nothing was going on.
Narrator:
Dismissing what he heard,
And with the elevators
on lock down,
The officer is forced
to take the stairs
Up to the sixth floor
to investigate the alarm call.
Burkhead: Every landing
that I got to,
As I made my way to
the sixth floor,
I was listening,
And I didn't hear anything.
Narrator:
But all the way up,
He can't help but feel
he's not alone.
I started getting
this feeling coming over me
Of being overwhelmed.
You know, the hair was standing
on my neck.
Narrator: Especially given
all the stories
Concerning the sixth floor.
There was rumors that
there was a woman
Who died decades earlier
in one of the offices up there.
That runs around the building,
And that's why nobody works
in this building after midnight.
Narrator:
But the officer dismisses it
As simply a tall tale.
Burkhead:
When I got to the sixth floor...
[ door creaks ]
♪♪
I had a feeling of dread.
[ screams ]
Like, sorrow,
And I-I didn't understand why it
was coming over me like that.
Narrator:
He starts to hear footsteps
And other unexplained sounds...
[ footsteps approaching ]
...Coming from the direction
of room 116,
Where the alarm was triggered.
I thought, based on my training,
I'm gonna go ahead
and make my way to the office
And see if I can catch
the perpetrator in the act.
♪♪
♪♪
As I approached the door of 116,
I noticed the door was opened
two or three inches,
Like a crack.
Hello?
The feeling
was getting stronger.
Is there anyone there?!
♪♪
[ door creaking ]
[ creaking loudly ]
♪♪
No sign of forced entry.
No sign of anything in disarray.
Everything looked neat,
as far as I was concerned.
Narrator:
Trained to think logically,
The officer is left
but with one possibility.
I thought about, you know,
possible false alarms
Because it happens on occasion.
[ footsteps approaching ]
Narrator:
But that theory is shattered
By the sounds of more footsteps,
And by the elevator.
[ elevator bell dings ]
[ bell dings,
metallic rattling ]
[ ding ]
[ ding ]
It shouldn't be going off
at 3:15 in the morning.
Narrator: A false alarm
in an office is one thing.
An elevator gone haywire
is another.
[ metallic rattling, ding ]
When I finally regained
my composure,
The scenarios were going
through my head again
That someone's on this floor.
[ ding ]
I looked right.
Nothing was in the hallway.
[ ding ]
and I looked left.
♪♪
[ loud thud ]
Narrator: The officer sees
something move in the darkness.
I could tell it was female
Because I could tell
it was a dress.
But I couldn't see her face.
Federal police!
Stay where you are!
♪♪
Then all of a sudden,
she took off
Down the other hallway.
♪♪
When I got to the corner...
♪♪
Nobody. Nothing.
♪♪
And all the way at the end
of the hallway,
There she was again.
Stay where you are!
But all I caught
was the backside of her,
And the bottom of her dress
whisked around that corner.
♪♪
As I rounded the corner,
didn't hear no running,
Didn't hear anything.
I took it slow
and I kept checking my six
To make sure
nobody was coming up behind me.
♪♪
Nobody. Nothing.
She just disappeared.
Narrator:
The officer suddenly feels
The room filling with
dark energy.
Burkhead:
And I got this unholy feeling...
...Cold sweats,
And the hair stood up
all over my body.
Then, all of a sudden...
[ doors slamming ]
...Seven or eight doors
just slammed.
Bang. Bang. Bang. Bang.
[ doors slamming ]
It hit me that there's no way
that one person
Could make these doors slam
in succession like that.
There's no way.
Narrator: When federal
security officer jerry burkhead
Investigates an emergency call
for a triggered alarm,
He comes face to face
with a mysterious woman
In a white dress,
whose sudden disappearance
Throws the entire sixth floor
Into unimaginable chaos.
[ doors slamming ]
Something's not right
on this floor.
Something not normal on
this floor.
I was unwanted,
and I could feel that.
[ breathing heavily ]
the grip of fear just had me.
Narrator: The officer calls
for backup,
And his partner soon arrives
on the scene.
Hey.
What the hell happened?
Narrator: Given what he's seen,
the officer is forced
To consider the ghost story
attached to the sixth floor.
Burkhead: The rumor was a woman
had died decades earlier.
She always wore white every day.
[ gasping ]
Narrator:
Just like the figure
Jerry believes he saw
moments ago.
♪♪
[ metallic clank ]
Burkhead: That's when we heard
the elevators again.
What the hell?
[ elevator bell dings ]
[ ding ]
We are hearing a sound
for elevators
That should not be going.
This seems like a case where
a spirit's objective
Is to trap a human through fear.
[ ding ]
they almost create a web
Where they can capture a person,
Giving them enough time to
feed off this person's energy.
When they're done with them,
they scare them off
And they get ready for
the next victim.
[ ding ]
[ metallic rattling, dinging ]
♪♪
Burkhead: Suddenly,
all the elevator noises stop.
It was actually quiet
on the floor.
Narrator: Jerry notices a light
on in room 116.
I looked at my partner.
I said, "check the rest
of these doors in this hallway."
And I'm making my way back
to the actual office, room 116.
Police!
If you're in here, you need to
come out with your hands up!
♪♪
Nobody. Nothing.
♪♪
[ woman screams ]
As I was making my way
out of 116...
Help!
...Got that
unwanted feeling again.
♪♪
It felt like it was a warning,
That something didn't
want me there.
♪♪
I looked up, and there she was.
♪♪
Her eyes were glow-y -- yellow,
orangish, kinda reddish.
Face was crackly.
And she just was giving me
the cold stare
That went right through me.
♪♪
[ screams ]
[ screaming ]
It scared the living...
Out of me.
I screamed loud.
I don't even remember
what I yelled,
But I know I yelled, "oh..."
♪♪
What?!
She just disappeared.
And my partner
rounded the corner
And he had his weapon out.
[ grunts ]
- What happened?
- I don't know what that was!
I don't know what
that was!
♪♪
This is the moment
where I thought,
The run-in that I just had
was -- was not of this world.
At that point, we just wanted
to get out of the facility...
♪♪
...Out to the outside.
Brewer: I think it was
the spirit's intention
To kind of lure jerry
with the tripping of the alarms.
When you think about a spirit,
what a spirit is,
It's no longer
of a physical makeup.
It's a being of pure energy.
So it's quite easy
for these beings to be able
To manipulate
electronic devices --
Alarms, elevators, and so forth.
The case closed on the alarm.
We got to the, you know,
the outside
And called it off that,
You know,
it was a false alarm.
If I would've mentioned this
to my superiors,
They probably would've gave me
a couple days off and said,
"take a break."
A spirit might be bound
to a particular spot
Where a tragedy occurred...
...Where there is a high release
of emotion, of shock,
Of panic, of anger,
Keeping them to that place.

[ ding ]

[ screams ]
Man: Why do you think the spirit
of this murdered woman
Was haunting this building?
I believe these are sometimes
warnings,
That perhaps you're treading
on very dangerous ground.
She might have been trying
to protect jerry
From another spirit
That is dark and dangerous.
[ doors slamming ]
One thing that's changed
since this incident
Is that I am a true believer
in the paranormal.

I used to be like this,
and now I'm like this.
The box is wide open.
It was something
from another world,
And it was terrifying.

Narrator: In response to
the emergency call,
Hospital corpsman john lykins
races across the base
To tend to
two critically sick marines,
Battling through
a raging category 2 hurricane.
[ wind howling ]
They were getting gusts
from 95 to 100 miles an hour.
Narrator:
The conditions force him
To race to the barracks by foot
and alone.
There were no jeeps available.
No ambulances available.
They had already evacuated
most of the base,
Except for medical personnel
and central personnel.
So I basically had to hoof it.
[ panting ]
[ thud ]
Narrator:
As a medical specialist,
The rookie corpsman
finds himself
In a situation
way beyond his experience.
I'd been out of school
for approximately one year
When this happened.
♪♪
Narrator: Immediately, john
realizes the men are too sick
To move to the field hospital.
Lykins: One marine had
nausea, vomiting.
Both of them had flu-like
symptoms and were pretty sick.
♪♪
Narrator: But with the storm
only getting worse,
Moving them across the base
is not an option.
Alone, with limited supplies,
John focuses on trying to
keep the men alive.
The plan was to get
these two individuals stabilized
So we could get them transported
to a better facility.
Narrator: But the storm
only keeps picking up steam.
It was a pretty bad one.
Narrator:
The medical officer wonders
If the barracks themselves
Can even hold up
to the fury of the hurricane.
Lykins: I was concerned with
the storm intensifying.
I had no idea how long
the hurricane would last.
Narrator: With his patients
at least stabilized,
All john can do now
is wait out the storm.
I was very tired.
I thought maybe laying down
would help for a little while.
Take a little catnap.
Narrator: But the storm makes
getting any rest
Nearly impossible.
[ thud ]
I would hear a tick bang.
[ clank, thud ]
Tick tick bang bang.
[ clank, thudding ]
[ wind gusting ]
The tree outside
the old barracks
Was kind of banging on
the window.
Narrator: John feels a strange
dizzying sensation move
Through the room
and through his body.
It was a feeling
of impending doom.
Man: Was it all to do
with the storm?
Or was there something else
at play?
I knew it wasn't all the storm.
It's one of the first times
I really ever got
one of those feelings.
♪♪
Narrator:
John pushes the strange thoughts
Out of his mind
and tries to calm down.
Lykins: But as I was
laying down...
♪♪
...I had this kind of jittery,
Strange, electrical feeling.
It was kind of spooky feeling.
I basically slept
with one eye open.
Narrator:
Drifting in half-sleep,
John hears someone else
in the room.
♪♪
You're in grave danger.
There was a marine
standing beside my bed.
I had never seen
this gentleman before.
He goes, "I'm major anderson."
And I said, "oh!"
so I snapped to.
You gotta move now.
He goes, "that tree is starting
to really kinda hit here.
I think you better get your
patients away from that window."
You got to help me move
these marines, now.
About that time we heard
kind of a cracking sound...
[ cracking ]
[ wind howling ]
...And so we moved them.
[ grunts ]
♪♪
[ coughs ]
- come on. You got this.
♪♪
After we moved the patients
to a safe area...
♪♪
[ loud crash ]
...There was a big smash.
[ crash, glass shatters ]
A tree limb smashed through
the window.
This limb landed on my cot
And one of my patient's cots
that they were on.
If I would've been laying
on that cot,
It may have killed one
of my patients, or even me.
I turned around,
and the major was gone.
Major!
Sir!
There was nobody there.
It froze me in my tracks.
Narrator:
While a vicious hurricane
Forces a u.S. Marine base
To evacuate
all non-essential personnel...
[ loud thud ]
...Hospital corpsman john lykins
fights through the storm
To reach
two critically ill marines...
...Who narrowly escaped
being crushed...
You gotta help me move
these marines, now.
...When a major shows up
out of nowhere to help.
But not only has john
never seen the officer before,
He soon realizes
that major anderson
Has now vanished
into thin air.
Lykins: Major! Sir!
Narrator: With a major
possibly outside and hurt,
John decides to contact
his superiors.
I went ahead and alerted
via radio the military police
To assess the situation.
Over and out.
At that moment, I just wanted
to get the hell out of there.
Narrator: As the night gives way
to morning,
The storm comes to an end...
You're gonna have to
take it easy, now.
...Allowing the military police
To finally make their way
to the barracks
To help transfer
john's patients.
Good to see
a friendly face.
How's it goin', sir?
Before transport begins,
John has one
final responsibility.
As these two individuals
were about ready
To be transported out of
the barracks on to further care,
I did want to give them
one final check-over.
As I was doing the vital signs
And just doing
a general check on them,
I mentioned, "hey," you know,
"what was it like having
a marine major
Come in and check on you?"
- sir?
Well, it's not every day
you get to be with a major.
I'm not sure what
you mean by that.
♪♪
He kinda looked at me.
"what?"
you know.
I said, "well, major anderson
was just here."
And he goes,
"who's major anderson?"
The guy who hooked you up
on this I.V.
Me and him carried you
out of here earlier.
Sir, I...Sir...
I- I don't know what
you mean.
He said, "all we heard was you
jibber-jabbering, doc."
They thought
I was jibber-jabbering,
Just talking to myself,
John checks with his
other patient.
Did you see the major?
No.
You didn't see the major
that helped us?
No.
He helped you.
He carried you out of here.
- Really?
Narrator: But he too has no idea
what john is talking about.
The patients never saw him.
They just saw me.
♪♪
The military police would know
everyone left
On the skeleton crew
of the base.
Ah, come on.
You saw the major, didn't you?
On your way in?
Uh, no.
You didn't see the major?
Uh, no.
I said, "he was from
headquarters company."
"doc," he goes, "headquarters
bugged out a long time ago.
Nobody's here."
What was going through my mind
about this time was,
These people
are going to think I'm nuts.
Now darn it, I knew
that I talked to this guy.
I shook hands with the guy.
I'm like, well,
these marines made a mistake.
These mps made a mistake.
He was flesh and blood.
Major!
Sir!
Narrator: The hurricane might
be long gone,
But a deep, dark mystery
has been left in its wake.
The next day,
after the hurricane,
I went to headquarters company.
I asked the female sergeant,
"try and locate
a major anderson."
"nobody here by that name."
I said, "you don't have
a major anderson?"
Narrator: The sergeant
guides john to the back offices.
There was a picture on the wall.
Sergeant: Is this who you're
talking about?
And she goes,
"that's major anderson.
Major anderson was killed
while in vietnam."
Before then, he was stationed
in the barracks you were in.
♪♪
That sent a big chill
down my spine.
That's when I realized I had
been talking to a dead man.
I was very, very freaked out.
You got to help me move
these marines, now.
[ loud crash, glass shatters ]
I realized that I'm not dealing
with something of this world.
There is no other explanation
for what I saw.
We find that often,
with spirits,
They will come in
in helpful situations,
Just to help out
humankind in general.
As I look back on it,
I think to myself,
"what really happened?"
You know, "why was
this individual there?"
[ labored breathing ]
Anderson: Easy, soldier.
Investigators often find
that these entities
Will return
to places they knew,
Specifically ones that they were
really passionate about in life.
- Headquarters.
-Headquarters company.
We have two very sick
marines here.
We need a corpsman.
Knudsen: There are many
instances throughout history
Where some sort
of non-physical entity
Has interjected itself
in a life-and-death situation.
[ loud crash ]
Why do you think the major
happened to be there
At that crucial moment,
to save these lives?
There are theories that
the entity actually may be
Moving through a timeline,
or be actually having
Experienced this event
in the future,
And maybe
reporting back on it...
And in this way, preventing it.
[ loud crash ]
Lykins: The whole thing
did change my life.
It changed the way I worked
With young emts and paramedics,
About death and telling them
and explaining to them,
Hey, not only do you have
to deal with it,
But strange things
may happen to you too.
Man: I'm walking out of here in
a couple days. I'm-a run out...
Lykins: It changed also my way
of thinking
About what happens to
my patients once they're gone.
Naturally, we want to save
every one of them, but...
Unfortunately,
we don't save them all.
So it makes you kinda wonder,
Do they hang around afterwards?
Do they come back
and see how you're doing
And thank you in some way?
Makes you wonder.

Narrator: The 9-1-1 call reaches
rookie emt tyler olmstead,
Only a few miles away
from the patient's residence.
Woman over radio:
Base to car 6.
We have a call
from maple creek. Over.
I was with the ambulance service
For about three months
at this point.
I liked the ever-changing
environment, the fast pace.
Narrator: As he arrives on site,
he's met there by his partner,
Who's raced over from
the station.
Immediately, they're confronted
by an odd sight.
We're expecting, you know,
the person's gonna be awake,
The lights are gonna be on.
They've called 9-1-1.
Pitch-black. No outside lights.
No inside lights on.

We have a 1023.
Requesting rcmp back-up.
Base to car 6...
[ speaks indistinctly ]
I immediately got on the radio
and asked for rcmp.
Base to car 6,
rcmp are en route.
Still about 5 minutes away.
Over.
Man: Why did you contact
the mounties?
Just to be there with us
because we're in
A random person's house
that we don't know.
Narrator:
But with no signs of life
And fearing the worst
for the patient,
The emts decide to proceed
without back-up.
- Woman: Hello?
- Tyler: Hello?
Paramedic. Hello?
We said, "paramedics.
Is there anyone here?"
Narrator: They make their way
Into the dark,
dead quiet living room.
Olmstead: We look around...
[ gasps ]
...And we see a gentleman,
And that completely
freaked me out.
Sir? Are you all right?
Did you call 9-1-1?
He sat there,
blank stare on his face.

The man deflected any emotion.
Didn't look at us.
That's definitely something
that made the hair
On the back of my neck stand up.
Bedroom.
Narrator: The man directs them
up the stairs.
We assumed he was the husband
Of the person
that we were there for.
It definitely seemed odd
that he wasn't with the patient.
I know if it was my loved one,
I'd be in the room with them
and be there comforting them.

Man:
So did you attend to him?
When he said, no, it wasn't him,
"bedroom,"
We didn't continue on with him.
We went to the bedroom
to assess his wife.
Our concern was to provide
patient care
To the person that needed it.
♪♪
We proceed down the hallway
to where the bedrooms are...
...Checking the bedrooms
To figure out
which one we're going to.
We ended up going to the master
bedroom at the end of the hall.
♪♪
My partner and I both saw
an elderly female
Roughly about the same age
as the male.
Very pale, sweaty, shivering,
And sitting straight up
in her bed.
Eyes wide open like
she just saw a ghost.
Ma'am, are you all right?
We're thinking,
Okay, medical cardiac,
medical respiratory.
Narrator:
The way she clutches her chest
Suggests pain in that area.
Olmstead:
But she didn't really seem
To be visibly short of breath.
Ma'am, we're gonna ask you
a few questions.
The protocol calls for us
to be questioning this patient
In terms of what they were
doing beforehand.
Any history of allergies
against...
Narrator:
Throughout the questioning,
The woman remains unresponsive.
She wasn't answering
our questions.
She barely looked at us.
Narrator:
The rookie emts have never dealt
With such a puzzling case.
We were both new and this was
a bit of strange call, and...
It was just
a very strange feeling
To be in that room with her.
M- m-m-m-m-mar--
mar-- mar-- martin?
M- m-martin?
Narrator: The woman
finally breaks her silence.
She just randomly started
mumbling "martin."
Mar...Tin?
Ma'am, is that your husband?
Is that the man
in the living room?
Narrator: The thought that
her husband might have hurt her
Suddenly crosses tyler's mind.
Was this person just hit
in the chest?
Is that why they have
a hurting chest
And they're a little bit
short of breath?
Narrator: With nothing
but unanswered questions,
Tyler and his partner
still have no idea
What happened to their patient.
We didn't really know
what was going on.
My partner opted for me to get
a set of vitals
While she talked to the husband
to figure out what was going on.
Sir?

Narrator: But the old man
is no longer there.

There's no one there.
- Martin?
- Where'd he go?
Myself and my partner
didn't hear him move around.
We didn't hear anything
of that sort.

of the missing man
Triggers a dramatic shift
in their patient.
Martin? M--
We briefly talked about it
in front of her,
Saying that we just saw
a gentleman.
We asked her
if that was her husband.
Is that your husband?
Narrator:
The woman's vital signs
Suddenly shoot through the roof.
It looked like she was almost
on the point of shivering.
Martin? Martin? Martin?

Narrator: The woman shows tyler
A sheet she's been
secretly clutching --
A funeral service card.
It was for a funeral
that took place a month ago.

And in the picture was
a younger version

Tyler produces the evidence --
The funeral service card

We didn't continue on with him.
We went to the bedroom
to assess his wife.
Our concern was to provide
patient care
To the person that needed it.
♪♪
We proceed down the hallway
to where the bedrooms are...
...Checking the bedrooms
To figure out
which one we're going to.
We ended up going to the master
bedroom at the end of the hall.
♪♪
My partner and I both saw
an elderly female
Roughly about the same age
as the male.
Very pale, sweaty, shivering,
And sitting straight up
in her bed.
Eyes wide open like
she just saw a ghost.
Ma'am, are you all right?
We're thinking,
Okay, medical cardiac,
medical respiratory.
Narrator:
The way she clutches her chest
Suggests pain in that area.
Olmstead:
But she didn't really seem
To be visibly short of breath.
Ma'am, we're gonna ask you
a few questions.
The protocol calls for us
to be questioning this patient
In terms of what they were
doing beforehand.
Any history of allergies
against...
Narrator:
Throughout the questioning,
The woman remains unresponsive.
She wasn't answering
our questions.
She barely looked at us.
Narrator:
The rookie emts have never dealt
With such a puzzling case.
We were both new and this was
a bit of strange call, and...
It was just
a very strange feeling
To be in that room with her.
M- m-m-m-m-mar--
mar-- mar-- martin?
M- m-martin?
Narrator: The woman
finally breaks her silence.
She just randomly started
mumbling "martin."
Mar...Tin?
Ma'am, is that your husband?
Is that the man
in the living room?
Narrator: The thought that
her husband might have hurt her
Suddenly crosses tyler's mind.
Was this person just hit
in the chest?
Is that why they have
a hurting chest
And they're a little bit
short of breath?
Narrator: With nothing
but unanswered questions,
Tyler and his partner
still have no idea
What happened to their patient.
We didn't really know
what was going on.
My partner opted for me to get
a set of vitals
While she talked to the husband
to figure out what was going on.
Sir?
♪♪
Narrator: But the old man
is no longer there.
♪♪
Sir?
♪♪
There's no one there.
- Martin?
- Where'd he go?
Myself and my partner
didn't hear him move around.
We didn't hear anything
of that sort.
Narrator: But the mention
of the missing man
Triggers a dramatic shift
in their patient.
Martin? M--
We briefly talked about it
in front of her,
Saying that we just saw
a gentleman.
We asked her
if that was her husband.
Is that your husband?
Narrator:
The woman's vital signs
Suddenly shoot through the roof.
It looked like she was almost
on the point of shivering.
Martin? Martin? Martin?
[ heartbeat thumping ]
Narrator: The woman shows tyler
A sheet she's been
secretly clutching --
A funeral service card.
It was for a funeral
that took place a month ago.
♪♪
And in the picture was
a younger version
Of the man we saw before.
It was her husband martin.
This was when I realized
that we'd spoken
To a gentleman
who had been deceased.
That scared the ever-loving
[bleep] out of us.
Narrator: Dispatched to the home
of an elderly couple,
Rookie emt tyler olmstead
and his partner
Are directed to the bedroom...
Bedroom.
...By what they believe is
the patient's husband.
But as they tend to his wife,
they discover, to their horror,
That the old man died
a month earlier.
We had spoken to a gentleman who
had been deceased for a month.
I have never been more scared
in my life, and you get that --
The chill
just goes up your spine.
My partner and I both looked
at each other
And we knew just by looking at
each other, time to go.
♪♪
Narrator:
After getting the woman
Loaded in the ambulance,
Tyler and his partner
are finally joined
By their rcmp backup.
She said, "do you want me
to go get the husband
And see if he wants to come?"
He just went into the house.
He told me you were
in the bedroom.
Narrator: Tyler and his partner
know that can't be possible.
And we said that we think that
that guy's dead.
I just saw him
go into the house.
He's coming
to the hospital.
Olmstead: He talked to us and
he just went into the garage.
We think he's getting ready
to take the car
And go to the hospital
with you, and we said,
"nope, this lady's husband
died a month ago."
Narrator:
Tyler produces the evidence --
The funeral service card
with martin's photo.
That's where we all kinda looked
at each other in disbelief.
Three people, at least,
saw a ghost.
I think in this case,
it's really clear
That martin did know
that he was completely visible.
He wanted to make sure that
the first responders
Get to his wife.
When we got to the hospital,
They determined that she was
having a heart attack.
Man:
So what would have happened
If somebody hadn't placed
a 9-1-1 call that night?
It's very clear that if somebody
hadn't placed a 9-1-1 call
That night, that she could've
very well died.
♪♪
♪♪
But the thing we couldn't
figure out is who called 9-1-1.
We learned that the call
was placed from that landline
At that house.
The person that placed the call
was a very raspy-sounding man
And didn't say much.
[ gasps, groans ]
She needs you.
Sir, what's wrong
with your wife? Sir?
No doubt in mind martin
placed the call.
I think oftentimes we forget
that these intelligences
Are emotional beings,
And that they can think
and feel and process,
And that they still
very, very much care
For the people that
they observe all the time.
[ whispers ] can't be.
It can't be.
♪♪
I think this case
is incredibly amazing,
And I think it's absolutely
possible that the entity here
And that bond that she had
with her husband
Absolutely transcended death.
♪♪
My sweet.
♪♪
I can say that
up until that moment,
Anyone that told me
they believed in ghosts?
I put them off to the wayside.
I had no time of day for them.
And after that experience,
I'm 100% a believer now.
That's definitely been a bit
Of a life-altering experience
for me.
