Ep 13. Old Chatham County Jail

Nick Groff and Katrina Weidman are back with another spine-tingling investigation, this time at the Old Chatham County Jail in Savannah, Georgia. This historic building has been the site of numerous deaths over the years, including murders, executions, and even suicides. It is no wonder that it is believed to be one of the most haunted places in America.

As the team sets up their equipment, they are already experiencing strange occurrences. Doors are opening and closing on their own, strange noises can be heard throughout the building, and there is an unexplained chill in the air. Nick and Katrina waste no time in getting to work, eager to uncover the secrets of this haunted jail.

Their investigation begins with a walk-through of the property. The team is immediately struck by the haunting energy of the place. They discover an isolation cell in the basement that was used to punish unruly prisoners. The cell is small and cramped, with no windows or light. Nick and Katrina feel an intense sense of dread as they enter the cell and can only imagine the agony of the prisoners who were forced to endure such conditions.

As the night wears on, the team sets up their equipment in various locations throughout the jail. They use a range of high-tech devices to capture audio and video evidence of any paranormal activity. One of their most noteworthy finds is a piece of footage that appears to show a ghostly figure moving through the halls of the jail.

Throughout the night, Nick and Katrina interview several experts on the history of the jail. They hear stories of brutal executions, violent riots, and even a prisoner who was sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit. The team is deeply moved by these stories and begins to understand the intense emotional energy that permeates the jail.

One of the most compelling moments of the episode comes when Nick and Katrina attempt to make contact with the spirits in the jail. They use a technique called the Estes Method, in which Katrina wears noise-canceling headphones and a blindfold while Nick reads out random words. This technique is designed to remove any outside interference and allow the spirits to communicate directly with Katrina. The results are shocking, and Nick and Katrina are stunned by the messages they receive.

As the investigation comes to a close, Nick and Katrina are left with an overwhelming sense of the paranormal activity that still exists within the Old Chatham County Jail. They are humbled by the spirit of the prisoners who still inhabit the building and feel a deep respect for the history and energy of the place. They leave Savannah with a better understanding of the power of the paranormal and the importance of honoring the stories of those who have come before us.
