Ghost Hunters Classic Season 6 Episode 1 Alcatraz
- October 15, 2021
On this episode of Ghost Hunters Classic, the team heads to the infamous Alcatraz Island, located in the heart of San Francisco Bay. Alcatraz served as a federal prison for some of the most dangerous criminals in American history, including Al Capone and George "Machine Gun" Kelly. Throughout its operation from 1934 to 1963, many prisoners were subjected to inhumane conditions and harsh treatment by guards. It's no surprise that visitors report feeling an eerie presence and strange occurrences on the island.
The team is led by the always composed Jason Hawes, co-founder of The Atlantic Paranormal Society (TAPS), and Grant Wilson, who left the show after season eight to pursue other ventures. Their goal is to gather evidence of paranormal activity and try to explain any unexplained phenomena they encounter.
The episode begins with the team arriving on the island and meeting with National Park Service rangers who provide them with a brief history of the prison. They also mention the numerous reports of apparitions and unexplained noises that they have received from visitors over the years.
The first location the team investigates is Cell Block D, which housed the most dangerous inmates. The team sets up cameras, audio recorders, and other equipment to capture any evidence of paranormal activity. As they begin their investigation, they immediately hear footsteps and strange noises. They also experience sudden temperature drops and fluctuations, which can be a sign of a ghostly presence. The team decides to split up into smaller groups to cover more ground, and each group reports similar experiences.
Next, the team moves on to the prison hospital, where many inmates died due to poor medical treatment and harsh conditions. The hospital is said to be one of the most haunted locations on the island. As they start their investigation, they hear strange noises and footsteps once again. They also find that their equipment seems to malfunction in certain areas, leading them to believe that a powerful energy is interfering with their equipment.
The team continues their investigation of different areas on the island and experiences strange occurrences in each location. They begin to feel like they are being watched by an unseen presence, and they hear disembodied voices and screams coming from empty cells. They also capture several EVPs (Electronic Voice Phenomena), which are unexplained sounds or voices that are not heard by the human ear but can be recorded by audio equipment.
Overall, this episode of Ghost Hunters Classic provides a fascinating insight into the paranormal activity reported on Alcatraz Island. The team provides compelling evidence of ghostly activity and unexplainable phenomena that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
