Ghost Hunters episode report card.

“Words From Beyond”

The night custodian at Clapp Library in Belchertown, Mass., witnesses odd activity; strange activity takes place in a house for a family’s four generations.

The Ghost Hunters investigation a library and a home. So what are these words from beyond?

Case: Clapp Library in Belchertown

Client Credibility

The client was Jacques Benoit who is the night custodian. He told us of a few incidents. Seeing an apparition and books moving by themselves on the shelves. He said things happen quite often.

He seemed very credible.

Investigation

Jason was sick and missed most of the investigation. Actually he didn’t miss much since nothing really happened. Kris felt like her hand was touched while Tango was feeling a cold spot.

At one point while Kris and Tango were in the basement, an electronic children’s book made a sound which at first did sound pretty creepy. But most likely just a low battery which sometimes causes those kind of toys to do something like that.

The team did their usual good work, there just wasn’t much going on. Interestingly they did show Kris doing some research on the building which isn’t something they have shown in the past. Probably just something to throw in since nothing was showing up on video or audio.

Evidence

Zippo on the evidence this time!

Case: Attleboro House

Client Credibility

This house was owned by the same family for four generations and is now a duplex. Which is unusual in itself but doesn’t mean anything paranormal is going on. As Grant points out is it real or just stories passed down from father to son.

The client showing Jason and Grant around is Scott Boulet who is the home owner. The creepiest thing in this episode was that his voice was the same as Brian Harnois! If you closed your eyes and just listened you’d swear it was Brian acting as a client.

Was Brian pulling a Shannon Sylvia????

Creepy.

The Scott-Brian guy tells us of an apparition sitting in a chair in one room. Another story is a man in the corner of the daughters room. As the father ran to the room he had trouble opening the door.

Then we are told of a shadow in the other side of the house.

Investigation

Jason and Grant do their usual thermal pass. Just don’t find anything with the thermal nor the EMF.

They do try to debunk the shadow that the family has been seeing. They drive the Yukon by and see if the headlights cause any unusual shadow action. Steve says the shadows are obvious and wouldn’t be confused with what the homeowners are seeing.

Grant and Jason heard a noise in the kitchen and did a nice job of debunking it. A floor board was loose causing the refrigerator to move which made something on the refridgerator to make noise.

While trying to get an EVP some bell that is near the entertainment center started to make noise. They setup a camera pointing at it to see if they get anything on video.

They ended the investigation with Tango and Kris. Tango made Kris laugh because apparently Kris’ stomach made noise. We didn’t hear it on TV but maybe they got something on the audio.

Tango made us laugh too. It was a nice scene.

Evidence

Only odd thing was the bell noise but nothing showed up on video. No EVPs either. Not even the Kris stomach noise showed up on the audio.

Conclusion

It’s unusual they they put two dud investigations in the same episode. But if you don’t find anything then thats the way it goes. It was creepy to listen to the client Scott-Brian guy but other than that not much going on here.

So how did they come up with the title “Words From Beyond”??? Maybe should have been “Stomach Gurgle from Beyond”
