Cook and McBeath then present new electronic voice phenomena recordings from cemeteries, a mortician's home, and other locations. Among the clearest captures is a child's voice saying what sounds like "it's Daddy's car" at a cemetery where a widower parked nightly to visit his wife and son's graves. Another recording captures a female voice warning "tell your friend to run," followed shortly by a second voice saying "please run."
Art emphasizes that GIS operates as a non-profit, accepts no money, and has maintained this standard for six years. The discussion explores whether consciousness survives death, with both investigators concluding that ghosts represent people stuck between realms rather than at their final destination.
Key Moments
Origin of EVP: birdcalls and a father's voice: Cook explains EVP traces back to the 1950s when a man recording bird calls in the woods played the tape back alone and began hearing human voices - including, at one point, what sounded like his own father calling him.
Listener EVP: 'Dream on, kid': Art reads a fast-blast from 17-year-old Michael in Dinuba, California, who left a recorder running on his bed and captured an EVP that simply said, 'Dream on, kid.'
Most EVP voices are children - even in prisons: Cook reveals that the majority of voices captured on their site are children's voices, and they have recorded what sound like children even inside prisons - places where you would not expect a child ghost.
Deer Lodge prison EVP: 'Oh, yes': While McBeath narrates the story of an inmate who escaped every prison he was sent to, the playback delivers a clear 'Oh, yes' that seems to directly answer her - recorded inside Montana's Deer Lodge prison.
Maximum security: a woman's scream of torture: From the women's wing turned maximum-security section of Deer Lodge, an unattended recorder captures 20 minutes of silence followed by a single woman's voice screaming 'Oh God,' which Art and the guests interpret as either residual or an ongoing soul in anguish.
