The Carmichael Manor.
Where to begin?
The manor's history is as sordid
as the Carmichaels themselves.
You got this big mansion. Rockland County, New York--
a county with its own sordid history.
The Carmichael Manor was something that fascinated me
as a true crime writer for a long time.
They were an extremely wealthy family.
I mean, their home was deep in the woods,
totally remote from civilization.
You had to drive literal miles and miles down dirt roads
just to get to it.
And tragically, one October morning,
the police discovered Catherine and Eleanor Carmichael
both dead in their beds, just horrifically murdered.
The obvious suspect is the father, Arthur Carmichael.
What's the problem with that?
Well, he and the 20-year-old son, Patrick Carmichael,
have been missing for the last 30 years--
like, completely vanished.
But I think they leaned heavily on Arthur
because there was early snow that year,
and there's only one set of footprints leaving the house.
Nothing coming in.
Most likely Arthur,
since Patrick only had use of one arm at the time
after the car accident.
Earlier that same year,
Patrick and their elder sister, Margaret,
were involved in a car crash,
which tragically killed Margaret.
Patrick was driving Margaret home from the city
when they were smashed by a drunk driver.
Patrick ends up surviving the accident,
just losing the use of one arm.
But Margaret was declared dead at the scene.
The decades-old murder was ripe for Reddit conspiracies,
Internet sleuth speculation.
The rumors that it was haunted started very early on.
Carmichael Manor is home to a grizzly murder
that occurred right upstairs from where I stand
just one year ago.
Half the family murdered,
while the other half is still missing, and still no answers.
Poor Tom Wheeler.
And he had to keep doing takes after that.
And you can see how all he wanted to do
was get the hell out of there.
Incidents like that fueled
the ghosts enthusiasts over the years.
But outside family,
very few people were ever granted permission
to stay in the home for an extended period of time--
until Margot Bentley.
The last time that I heard from Margot
was the day she drove out to the Carmichael Manor.
Rebecca was with her. She always was.
Five days later, I got a call
from a New York State Police detective.
Their bodies had been found in the manor.
The only known thing that happened to Margot and Rebecca
was the 911 call that police received at around 2:00 a.m.
And this was their fourth night in the mansion.
Wait, wait. Wait. It's working. It's working.
Hi. My name is Rebecca Vickers.
We're Carmichael Manors, at 101 Starlight Drive.
Please, something's in the house with us.
Margot! It's not him!
Most keyboard detectives stay in the comfort
of their own home.
That wasn't how Margot did her work.
She was always there,
and she was always recording everything.
What's on their video is four nights
of completely perplexing and unexplainable nights of footage.
Whoever sees this, that's the best disclaimer I can give.
How much further? I'm kinda getting hungry.
I told you a banana wasn't gonna be filling.
I'm not gonna make it.
Let's stop and eat.
Okay. Where would you like to go?
I don't know. Do you see a sign somewhere?
I-- I would.
I would slaughter a chicken right now.
Okay.
I will do what I need to do 'cause--
- Wow. - I'm at that point right now.
Survival mode.
- Spoons. - Thank you for paying.
Why, uh, what's the deal with the camera?
Oh, I'm so happy you asked.
Rebecca, will you hold this for a second?
- Oh, God. - Thank you.
So, actually, we are here--
are you okay with me on camera for a few minutes?
Uh, what are we gonna talk about?
So I actually created a website.
It's called netsleuths.com.
And we go investigate these murder scenes.
And I have a question for you--
Oh, you're going to the Carmichaels.
Yes! You knew it. You knew it.
Do you have any opinions about it?
It's, uh, you know, it's the local lore legend.
Everybody knows the story of that place.
Okay.
You know, that they got butchered in the bed,
or whatever the heck it was.
Yes! That's exactly it.
So, you're going to check it out?
We're going to check it out.
We're gonna be there for five days.
You're s-- no, you're staying in the Carmichael?
- We're staying inside. - Yeah.
- Yes. We got permission. - Is that crazy?
Wow, okay, yeah, we used to like, party,
in their backyard and stuff, 'cause it's so remote--
like, back in high school,
'cause no cops would go out there-
But we've-- none of us have actually
been inside of it. - Wow.
All right, sleuthers.
We are about 30 minutes from our new home
for the next five days-- the Carmichael Manor.
Yep.
And as you can tell,
Rebecca is as excited, as always, for a road trip.
Mm.
I don't see why we can't stay at a nearby hotel this time.
I'm-- you can still do your work,
and I can have reliable Internet.
Yeah, but where's the fun in that?
And hey, this place does have Internet.
I promise.
Do you want my tomato? - It better, okay?
Because I can't miss a single meeting this week.
Oh, I know.
You'll murder me, too,
if you miss your precious meetings.
Stop that.
Will you grab the camera? - Yeah.
You ever been out this way before?
Uh, to this specific area, no.
But I was in Rockland County once as a kid.
Oh, is that the thing with the...
Yeah.
Margot, how off-the-grid is this place?
We've been driving on a dirt road for, like, 20 minutes now.
Yeah, it's pretty remote.
Okay. Remote, right?
- Yeah. - So remote.
And yet, it has Internet? I'm starting to have doubts.
So, this is what happens when you have no signal
and you don't know how to read a map.
Let's go see.
Are you sure we're still in North America?
Lemme just check really quick.
Yeah, no, that's North American dirt.
- Oh, that's nice. - Yeah.
- That is... - Really nice.
Damn. How rich were the Carmichaels?
And this is where we're staying?
Can you believe it?
So, do we just knock?
Yeah. I guess so.
Wait, wait, wait, you do the filming,
I'm gonna do the talking.
Yeah.
Oh, yeah.
Could definitely see a horrific murder happening here.
Yeah, no kidding.
Hello?
Margot. Donald.
We spoke on the phone last week.
Yes. So nice to meet you in person.
Nice to meet you, as well.
This is my girlfriend, Rebecca.
She's gonna be keeping me company on this journey.
Great. I am very sorry. I did not hear you pull in.
I have been trying to get things ready in here.
Also, are you okay with being on camera for a few minutes?
That's fine.
Oh, this.
That is the family portrait.
Eleanor had that commissioned one year
before Margaret's death in the, um, car accident.
Normally, we have a third party come in,
and turn the place around for us.
But we've had a bit of a hard time
getting companies to come out this far.
The house is pretty remote,
and, of course by now, everyone knows.
Knows what?
Do members of the family still use it?
Well, it's still in the Carmichael family name.
It went to Eleanor's family first,
after everything happened.
More recently, her sister Beatrice.
Now, Beatrice is 83,
so, we basically look after the whole estate for her.
I am sorry, by the way, about all the time constraints.
Some of our estate overseers just want this place
to be completely closed off to the public.
Liability concerns.
Right now, short-term stays are the middle ground.
You guys.
Thank you so much for getting everyone to agree.
Five days is plenty.
Well, I told them to give you 10 days.
I mean, truthfully, you could have 20 if you wanted.
Really, nobody stays here more than a few nights.
Oh God, Is it because of the Internet?
Please don't say it's the Internet.
No.
As I told Margot on the phone, that is reliable.
I told you so.
What's this.
On the wall?
You can't hear anything, but back in the day,
that would actually buzz the kitchen,
when there was a full-time staff working here.
Very "Downton Abbey."
Of course, you'll have everything you need--
linens, food.
Which one of you likes coffee?
- Oh, me. - I do.
Good. 'Cause we have plenty.
Believe it or not,
the entire house is pretty much exactly as it was
in October of '89.
Nobody's really lived here full-time since then.
This was Catherine's bedroom--
Arthur Carmichael's youngest daughter.
She was only 17 when the whole thing happened.
Apparently, she wanted to be a filmmaker.
It was said that she was always filming around the house,
capturing home movies of some kind or another.
She might have had a future in that.
Reports say her murder was brutal, right?
Like, it had to be a crime of rage.
And personal.
I consider myself lucky
I didn't see the crime scene photos.
I can't even imagine what happened in here.
This is the master bedroom, largest room we have.
So, Arthur and Eleanor slept in here?
Yes.
Can I ask you a personal question?
Of course.
Do you think Arthur did it?
What's in here?
Uh, that is old storage.
Truthfully, I haven't been in there in years.
I don't even have a key for it anymore.
This is Patrick's bedroom.
Sadly, they never found Patrick's body.
Suffered a broken arm in the car accident
that killed Margaret.
Apparently, he was very traumatized by her death.
They were driving home from the city,
hit by a truckload of town drunks.
I can't even imagine.
Our offices are 15 minutes away, so don't hesitate to call.
We can usually get here pretty quick.
Thank you very much.
Are you familiar with the Abaddon Hotel a town over?
Yeah.
It burned to the ground a few years ago.
Well, yes, it's an empty field now,
but there is an antique store
that recovered quite a few of the items.
Given the work that you're doing,
I thought that might interest you.
Ooh, definitely interested in the antique store.
Call if you need anything.
Thanks again.
Well?
Seems nice.
I mean, my company would definitely buy it
if it weren't so huge.
What?
So, Chase is gonna be here in an hour.
Okay, yeah, no, don't gimme that, please.
I think it's gonna be great.
He's gonna be an extra hand.
Margot, he's not an extra set of hands.
He's a liability.
Listen, I'm sorry, okay? I'm sorry.
I love him, too, but he is.
I know.
But I think he's got his shit together,
and just give him a chance, okay?
Margot...
Can I shut this thing off now?
Yeah.
I'm not gonna lie,
this is not-- not as bad as I thought it would be.
I told you so.
Margot.
Oh. Hey.
You got it open?
Are we even allowed to be in there, or...?
Okay.
What is all this?
I don't know.
Well, I could see why they would keep it locked.
We should do the same.
Hello? Margot?
Hey, he's here.
Hey. Where are you guys?
Chase?
- Hey. - Hey. Hi.
- Hi. - Oh, my God.
- I missed you. - I missed you!
You started already, huh?
- Yeah. - This is how it's done?
This is how it's done.
- Wow. - Oh, my God. Hi.
Your face. How are you? Good? Yeah?
You seeing someone? You got here safe?
Everything good with that? - Here we go.
I'm fine, all right?
And I am seeing somebody.
Hey, Scorsese. How are you doing?
Hey, Chase. How you doing?
Did you just say you're seeing somebody.
She's making you film every conversation?
- Yep. Pretty much. - Wow.
Oh, I'm still here. What, y-you're seeing somebody?
I'm sure this is gonna make for some great TV someday.
Don't-- Don't walk away from me.
Are you getting married tomorrow?
What's-- What's her name? Is she-- Is she beautiful?
Cut it out!
When you look back at Margot's history,
you can see where she grew her own passion
for solving cold cases.
I mean, what happened to her at a county fair as a child,
that would leave a mark on anyone.
When Margot was about 10,
her family took her and Chase to the county fair.
She got separated from them somehow,
and a man she didn't know
tried to lure her away from the fairgrounds.
It took her a little while to realize something was wrong,
and she started to scream.
The guy ran off.
She couldn't help her parents or the police identify him.
I think, as she got older, it really must have sunk in
that she could have died that day,
because several others went missing from that same fair,
and they were never seen again over the years.
I think, in some ways, she felt partially responsible.
In college, she and I envisioned the website
that would become Net Sleuths.
And, over the years,
we developed it into a pretty significant community
of Internet detectives focused on solving the unsolved.
Margot always had to take things a step further.
She began this routine of staying in the places
where she was investigating,
taking a ton of photos and video.
Her last investigation ended up being the Carmichael Manor.
It's alleged that, on October 10th, 1989,
Arthur killed his wife, daughter, and son
during the night, just brutally stabbing them.
And then, he leaves the manor with Patrick,
dumping his body in some unknown location.
And then, Arthur just completely disappears.
What makes him the main suspect?
Because there was no forced entry.
And there was also early snow that year,
so it was very easy for the police to see a single set
of footprints leaving the house and going into the woods.
What about Patrick?
So, his body was never found,
but there was blood all over his bed,
so the police think that he may have been Arthur's first victim,
killing him first,
then Catherine, and then Eleanor, stabbing them.
Oh, my God.
And Catherine, she was killed in our room?
Mm, can we switch with Chase?
Okay, so, theoretically,
Arthur Carmichael walks down these stairs,
and he's covered in blood, and wouldn't have time to change.
So-- hold on, Chase. Move.
Okay.
He walks down this way, to the left,
right outside these doors.
But no, he's gone.
Just vanishes. Not a drop of blood anywhere.
Not even in the snow.
But, okay, what about Patrick's body?
Was he carrying it? Or how is that explained?
Oh, it's not.
What do you want from me?
I mean, I-- don't get me wrong,
I'm-- I'm glad you called.
I'm just, I'm not much of a-- a sloth.
- No, Chase. No. - What?
- It's-- I'm sorry. - It's sleuth.
I'm not much of a sleuth.
So, I need at least two cameras filming at all times.
Thank you.
Even the most mundane stuff,
not even relating to the investigation.
Margot thinks, of all the places
that we've been to that are supposedly haunted,
this one's actually for real this time.
Oh.
Shoot, I gotta get this.
Hi. Linda.
Can you-- Can you hear me?
I...
Linda, can you...?
Aw, dammit.
All right, sleuthers, this is our first official night
at the Carmichael Manor, Manor, Manor, Manor.
And everyone seems to be settling in.
How's it going?
Hey.
Sorry.
I'll-- I'll be more help in the morning.
Before we left, my job sent all these listings
for me to sort before my presentation.
But thank God the Internet does work, though.
Hey, I totally get it.
New job, new responsibilities.
But hey, seriously, I'm just very thankful
that you came with me at all this time.
So, thank you.
Listen, about that.
You know I love going on these adventures with you,
cracking old mysteries.
Truly, I-- I love it.
I feel like there's a "but" coming, here.
This is probably gonna be one of the last times
I'm able to go with you-- at least for a little while.
I really like this job, and I need it to stick.
And going to old murder houses, I...
Can you turn that thing off for a second?
Hey.
Thank you for the big room.
This is-- well, probably the nicest room I've ever slept in.
I thought you'd have me in the attic or something.
Oh, I-- I haven't ruled that out.
Where's your, uh, what-- what's it called again?
A-- A camera? - Tomorrow, I promise.
I won't ever put it down.
I will take it with me to the bathroom.
Okay, okay.
I'm just saying.
Do you actually think this place is haunted?
I don't know.
But if it is, please get it on camera.
Yeah, but none of the places that you've--
you've been to before were actually haunted?
No.
So why call me now?
What do you want me to say, here, Chase?
That-- That-- That mom called,
and told you I had an incident,
and-- and you thought that this would be the best way
to keep an eye on me.
And what if that's true?
Is that so bad?
You get to help me. Now I get to help you, too.
- I-- I don't need help, Margot. - Oh, you don't?
Because last I heard, you went missing for two days,
and nobody knew where you went.
That's-- [chuckles]-- that's not what happened.
It's not.
What was that?
Rebecca?
Hey. - Jesus.
What's going on?
- Did you hear it? - I don't know.
What did you hear? - It-it-it sounded like--
Like what?
It sounded like someone was singing downstairs,
- Singing? - Like a girl was singing.
Hey. Where-- Where are you going?
Did you get it on camera?
Um, I don't think I recorded in time, but at least I tried.
Hey. - Yeah?
Thanks for using the camera.
You got it.
Okay.
Hey, sleuthers.
Sorry, I can't take that seriously.
Okay, so, last night was the last night
I'm staying on these sheets.
I got some new ones yesterday.
The old ones had, like, a weird odor to them.
And Margot, since you want me to film everything,
you're gonna get all of this.
We have not yet invented a better way
of figuring out which corner goes where.
She is conveniently absent when I have to make the bed.
All right.
There you go, Margot.
See that? It wasn't so hard.
Nice and clean.
You can thank me later.
Figure, if this is gonna be our last adventure together,
may as well have fresh sheets, right?
Mwah.
Love you.
Like, I slept like a baby, though, right through the night.
What time was it?
Good morning, my little sleuths.
- Hey. - Good morning.
Do you wanna go to that antique store today?
You know, we could get lucky with some really good clues.
And then, on the way, you know,
we might find the perfect wooden bench--
For the foot of our bed! There it is.
What should I do?
Oh, you should definitely just stay here.
Please film. - That's it?
You don't need me to do anything?
No. That's it.
I guess I will hang out here,
and, uh, let you know if I see any ghosts.
Thank you.
Oh, hey, you might get lucky.
You might get breakfast and a show,
because, according to Rebecca, they love to sing.
- Mm. No.
I said it sounded like singing.
I didn't say it was actually singing.
Hey.
Thought we were leaving.
God, what is all this?
Yep.
Giving creepy carny vibes.
Hey. You okay?
Yeah.
I'm fine.
We should get on the road.
- Chase? - Hey.
Hey.
This place is incredible.
I feel like I'm on vacation.
So, Rebecca and I were gonna go antiquing.
I just wanna make sure you're all good,
that you're gonna be good by yourself.
I'm fine.
I-- I will keep an eye on the place for you, all right?
What? - Where's your camera?
It's right there.
And we're here for five days,
so please don't be shy with the camera, okay?
All right.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
All right. See you in a few hours.
- Have fun. - Thank you.
Oh, you wanted footage, Margot,
you're gonna get some footage.
Boo!
Margot, my dear, I've solved your murders.
Turns out there were no murders at all.
The Carmichaels are alive and well.
They faked their own death as a tax evasion scheme.
Ooh!
It's me, Arthur Carmichael.
You brought this upon yourself, Margot.
You are gonna get a day in the life of...
Margot?
Rebecca?
Are you guys-- Are you guys home?
Margot?
Margot.
Come on, you guys better not be fucking with me.
Rebecca.
Come on.
Hello?
Say something.
Hello?
All right, all right, all right.
All right, motherfucker.
Oh, come on.
- Wow. - So cute.
Those are very cute.
- Oh, my god. - What?
The perfect wooden bench for the end of our bed.
Oh! There it is.
- It's a little small, but... - A little small.
- Margot. - What?
- Oh, look at this. - Yeah. Wow.
- You from outta town? - Oh!
God. Yes. Sorry.
Yes. No.
Yeah, we're in town for the week.
Um, what's-- what's all this, here?
Those are all the things found at the Abaddon Hotel
before it burned to the ground.
I often wonder if anything would've turned out differently
if Margot and Rebecca hadn't wandered into
that antique shop.
They find all this junk from the Abaddon Hotel.
Nothing that big of a deal.
And then, Rebecca notices something
about that clock, and everything changes.
- It has compartments. - What?
It has compartments. It has secret compartments.
How do you know that?
That's an old German manufacturer.
One of the listings has the same clock that I have.
Built all the clocks the same way.
Why are you whispering?
It's secret.
Okay.
Holy shit.
Oh, my God.
Wow.
Okay, keep going. Keep going.
Okay. Yep.
Oh. We can't take that!
Yes, we can.
Look at this.
"All staff must be present Thursday, September 15th.
Hotel will be closed.
He wants Beverly found, and safely brought back to hotel,
of fear she might be pregnant"?
"Please handle with caution."
Who the fuck is Beverly?
What?
Okay, yep. We're taking all of it.
Oh. We can't take everything.
Yes, we can. Nobody knows it exists.
Hey, you guys back?
Margot?
Hey, guys, are you here?
And of course, the fucking power's out.
Hello?
Fuck.
The fuck is that?
Oh, shit. What the fuck?
Oh.
Hello?
Who is that?
The fuck?
Oh.
Fuck.
Fucking shit.
Holy shit. Holy shit.
Oh, shit.
Fuck.
Hey! Who is that?
Say something.
Fucking shit.
Here we go.
Who's in here?
Hey, we're back.
You okay?
Did the power go out?
Yeah, um...
yeah, I, um...
sorry.
Um, can-- can I talk to you guys?
Yeah.
Boom. Right there.
Oh, my God. You can see a face.
Are you sure you were alone?
Who else would be here?
I mean, down here and upstairs?
You might be right about this place.
It might actually be real.
- I mean, I-- - Don't.
Don't say "I told you so."
I've always had my suspicions that there was something more
behind her going to the Carmichael Manor--
like she was after a bigger piece to a bigger puzzle,
which had eluded people for years.
But she definitely found it.
The film canister that they found
inside that old clock from the Abaddon,
that something so game-changing was in there
the whole time, while "Hell House" was there,
"Insomnia," and-- and everyone else, just--
just waiting for someone to open it, and find it.
Over 30 years later, somebody did.
I thought I would see some footage
of the Abaddon early days,
since the footage was found inside the hotel.
But when I processed it, that isn't what I saw at all.
What did you see?
The Carmichaels.
Hello.
Margaret?
Pat? Are you guys still here?
Hello?
You are an asshole, Pat.
You guys scared the shit outta me.
Hey, don't get mad at me.
It was all Margaret's idea, okay?
My idea?
You're the one who said we needed to add some drama
to Catherine's movies.
These aren't supposed to be manufactured drama.
It's like cinema verite.
That's the whole point of the project.
You're lucky.
Pat wanted me to hide in your closet.
That would've been awesome.
C'mon, we gotta go.
We gotta avoid the bridge traffic.
Where are you guys going?
My first rehearsals in the city today.
We're doing "Faust" in three weeks.
Pat's gracious enough to gimme a lift.
Well, can I come with you guys?
I mean, that would make for some great footage.
Mom said you have to stay here.
Don't worry. We'll be home before dinner.
Get one last shot of me before I go shine on stage.
Sadly, that was the last image ever taken of Margaret.
She was killed later that evening.
And Patrick was never the same again.
There really is no obvious motive here,
and that is the most frustrating part.
Find anything interesting at the antique shop?
About the Carmichaels? Sadly, no.
But we found a lot of weird shit about the Abaddon Hotel.
So, listen to this.
"Something's coming. Cold, the nightfall.
All things die and never come back."
Well, that, that sounds like a fun nursery rhyme.
It's like a bunch of notes that were meant to be burned,
but instead someone put them inside of a clock.
Okay, wait, there's one more that I wanna read.
This one, this one, this one.
"When they return,
the most common side effect is bleeding from the face.
Doc says some form of he- mm, haemo-haemolacria?
Can you Google that or something?
Return from where?
I don't know.
Hey, what's this?
I found that in the Abaddon clock, too.
Might keep it in my room. I could use some good luck.
- Shit, Chase.
There is a light on the camera.
Just hit that button on the left side.
All right, hang on, hang on.
- Come on. Not that hard. - There's a lot of buttons.
Hang on.
There we go. - Good job.
All right, where are the breakers?
Do you know?
Yes, they should be, follow me,
closet near the front.
As if this place can get any creepier.
I know, right?
It's gonna be fine. Stop.
Uh.
- Oh. - Oh, fuck.
Well, I guess we don't need the breakers.
- You got it. - God,
I was not about to stay here without any power.
Yeah, sorry about that.
Donald said that might hap...
What?
Margot, what?
What the...
Is that from the chest that was upstairs.
Shit, Margot.
I'm telling you, something's not right here.
Where are you, by the way?
Margot?
Oh, hey.
Have you seen Margot?
Yeah, she's outside, um,
hey, could I talk to you for a second?
Yeah, sure.
Like you, you put on fresh sheets.
Yeah. The the other ones had like an odor-
Right, like a, like a, like an old sweater.
Yeah, I guess.
Yeah, yeah, mine too.
Uh, but, what's up?
Is, is this a camera-friendly conversation?
Oh, yeah.
Keep filming. I, I don't care.
Um, I, I just wanted to, you know,
gauge your comfort level with, with all this.
Comfort level?
You know, Margot,
she, she, she goes on these crusades
and, and she doesn't know how to stop.
I mean, she can be a little obsessive
and, and I'm sure that's part of the reasons you love her.
But...?
Right, I just, I just wanna make sure
that we don't stay any longer than we have to, you know?
So like, if, if, if at any point
this gets to be too much for you
and you want to leave, just know
that, that I totally have your back, okay?
Yeah. Thanks, Chase.
I, I think I'm okay for now.
As long as I have internet.
Right.
Wait, well, good, good luck with, with your call now.
Oh!
Oh yeah. Thanks.
In all the decades of rumors
and stories surrounding the Carmichael Manor,
you could tell just after watching the first day
of Margot's footage that they were all probably true,
but they weren't really phased at all by any of this.
Oddly enough, it was Chase
who first started urging a little more caution,
suggesting that maybe they don't have to stay
the full five days, but then it got worse.
Hey.
Hey, Rebecca, how have you been?
Hey. Hey, Linda.
How's it going?
Okay. There you go.
Hi. Sorry about the poor service.
I am out in the country with Margot.
But I should still be able to share my presentation.
Fingers crossed.
I love spending time in the country.
How is it there?
It is different.
That's what makes it great.
All these listings are old Colonial style,
which is perfect for us to take on
because they need a lot of work.
Um, here, let me get a screen share going
and I will show you the listing pictures.
Oh, wow.
Right?
What was that?
Sorry, I don't know how that got there.
I love this listing.
What's the ask on this one again?
This one is 230,000.
Excellent.
Good find, Rebecca.
Thanks.
Here, let me show you this next one.
I know you're gonna love it too.
Um...
Whoa.
I think it's nice,
but that foyer doesn't really scream fixer upper.
Wait, I'm sorry.
This, this, this isn't right.
Beautiful staircase.
Is this the wrong file?
This isn't the file. I, I didn't take these.
Everything okay, Rebecca?
Who is that?
Is that, is that you?
Honey, are you okay?
Do you need to take a break to sort this out?
So theoretically, Linda has it recorded, yeah?
Margot, I don't care if they recorded it.
I never wanna see that again.
Do you not get that? - Yes.
I know you are upset.
That is clear. - No shit I'm upset.
I know. So it doesn't matter.
I need to see it.
Margot, I don't care if you wanna see it.
I, I probably lost my job today.
Well, wait, what, what happened?
Rebecca said that she saw something weird
on her video conference, like a person.
In this room, in a picture with me in it.
- Shit, are you okay? - She's fine.
I'm not fucking fine, Margot.
You, you didn't see it. I...
I knew I shouldn't have come this time.
Okay, so now it's my fault.
Margot, I may have lost the only job
getting us any income.
You-Listen, I love that you hunt these old ghost stories,
but i-it's just a hobby.
It doesn't pay the bills, it does nothing for us.
You and me. Okay?
It just satisfies some obscure obsession you have.
What the fuck are you doing?
I'm getting out of here, okay? We all should.
Congrats, this place is the real deal.
Now let's get the hell out of here.
Okay so where you're losing me
is you mock all these places that we go to
because "Oh, they might be haunted,"
but then when a place actually might be you want to leave?
Yeah.
And I'm sure that I'm not the only one that feels that way.
Chase?
I, I, I'm, I- I agree with Rebecca.
I mean, you know,
I don't think we should stay longer than we have to.
There you go.
Thank you.
Okay. Okay.
Can you just turn that off
and give me and Rebecca time to talk?
Yeah.
Hey, Becs. How are you holding up?
I appreciate your dedication to the camera.
Hey, if we're gonna stay one more night,
might as well give Margot a full card.
Plus, I'm afraid she might yell at me if I put it down.
One more night, then, then we leave in the morning.
Hey, you're not gonna get any pushback from me.
What's she up to now?
Oh, you know,
just retracing the exact steps of the killer and victims.
For what? Like the thousandth time?
So, do you still have a job?
The internet hasn't worked since my presentation,
so who knows.
Hey, you're gonna be all right.
I can't make this make sense.
What?
It's an old photo from the Abaddon clock.
Yeah, the pictures of the Abaddon Hotel,
those make sense.
But this?
- And is that? - Yes.
What the fuck?
I know. And look at the back.
Clarksburg Fair, West Virginia, 1975.
Do you see that carnival game in the back?
That is the exact game that is currently upstairs
at this very mansion
with the same two clown costumes on those two mannequins.
- Three mannequins. - What?
There's three mannequins upstairs.
I, what does it all mean?
I mean, like, there it is.
There what is?
We officially have a direct connection
between this house and the Abaddon Hotel.
Explain to me how this game gets from Clarksburg
to the middle of nowhere, Rockland County.
And then this photo gets in the Abaddon Hotel clock?
Maybe, um, maybe we should leave tonight.
No! We are just actually-
What the fuck was that?
The, th-th-the call button.
Someone's upstairs c- calling down to the kitchen.
Holy sh- Margot.
Right, how, how, how
do we know what room's coming from?
It's, it's, it's in there above the door.
All right, all right. Hang on.
Go.
It, it says Patrick.
Okay. Okay.
Come with me. Let's go. - All right, all right,
all right. - You, you guys
are going up there?
Yes. And stay here. Stay here.
Use the camera.
Go.
Shh.
Looks like the light's on in the room.
- Was that on before? - I don't know.
Hello?
Hello.
Hang on.
Jesus. - Watch it!
- Holy shit. - Fuck.
Jesus. How the did that get in here, Margot?
I don't...
Oh, shit.
It's fucking staring at us. - I know, I know.
All right, hang on.
- Okay. - Hang on.
Fuck.
Touch it. - Fuck. Shh.
Fuck.
Okay.
See, just a mannequin.
Fucking clowns, Margot.
You had to pick somewhere
with clowns. - Dude, shut up. It's fine.
Okay, well.
Guys? Anyone up there?
Hello?
Who's there?
What's wrong? What happened?
In t-t-the, in the closet. In the closet.
- Go! - All right. All right.
Fuck. Fucking clowns.
Can we go? Can we go?
Can we go, now? - Jesus.
What did mom tell you about what happened to me?
Do you wanna talk about it?
I saw this little girl all alone,
and then she said that she couldn't find her mom,
so I wanted to help her.
- Good. That's- - No, not good.
- Why not? - Because,
because, she wasn't real.
She kept, she kept disappearing
and then, and appearing wherever I was that day.
She said that her and her mom were staying at a hotel
and that she couldn't find her mom.
I wanted to help her, but she kept disappearing.
And then I realized that, well, she's not real.
She must be in my head.
That's okay, Chase.
That's, that's why we want you to stay on the medication-
But I was.
And it shouldn't have happened. But she was so real to me.
And the last thing that she said,
it never stuck out to me until being here,
she said, "Go with Margot."
Then the next day you called me
and asked me to come with you here.
- Um... - No. No
Don't try to bullshit me.
This place is fucked. All right?
Something is, is messing with us.
It probably doesn't want us here, so let's not disappoint.
Okay?
Tomorrow, right? - Yeah.
Yeah. Tomorrow.
Hey, you gonna be okay all by yourself?
Do you wanna bunk with me and Becs?
No. I am gonna drink.
All right? That will help the sleep.
Okay.
Um,
you know I love you, right?
I love you too.
Good.
Good night. - Night.
Rebecca.
What?
Did you hear that?
I thought I heard like a shout
and a thud right outside our room.
Hold this.
What is it?
We're okay? - Yeah.
I think so.
What's wrong?
Is, is that Chase's?
Chase? Chase?
Shit.
Where the hell are you?
He's not downstairs or outside.
Um, can can you call his phone again?
Um, hey, it's in here.
What do you think?
I, I don't, I don't know.
I guess I got, I-I got a text from him last night
saying, "Was that you?"
"Was that you," what?
I don't know. You were sleeping, so I didn't respond.
Um, he, he probably heard the same thing I did
when I woke up, right?
Rebecca?
What we know now
is that Chase didn't wander off.
Of course he didn't.
Hard to understand.
Even harder to watch
if you, you've seen the video.
And I have.
Well, Margot,
ya really picked a winner with this place.
Let's just hope that we all live to tell the tale.
Margot?
All right. I think that's enough for tonight.
Someone keeps knocking on the door,
but there's nobody there.
There it is again, somebody is outside my fucking door.
Fuck this.
Nothing.
Hello?
Hello.
Fuck.
All right, Margot,
as soon as the sun comes up, we are outta here.
I love you. But, but this place is absolutely fucked.
I just heard my door open.
Fuck. Something just opened my door.
Oh fuck! What the f-
Oh my God.
What the fuck?
Shh, shh, shh, shh, shh.
Oh, fuck.
What the fuck.
Oh shit.
Okay. I'm, I'm gonna,
I'm, I'm gonna go.
I'm gonna, I'm gonna get my bag.
Let me get my bag.
And, and, and, and, and, and, and I'll leave.
And, and it'll be like, like, like we were never here.
Okay?
And I'm sorry. All right?
I'm sorry.
Look, we're gonna go.
What the fuck?
All right, I'm leaving.
I'm so sorry. We're so sorry.
We're gonna go. Okay?
Fuck.
Oh fuck.
I'm, I'm, uh, I'm going.
We're going.
Oh fuck. Oh fuck.
Oh please, please, please, please, please, please.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Oh please, please, please, please, please, please.
No!
Come on. I'm going.
I'm going.
Okay, okay.
Pat, are you okay?
Can I do anything for you?
What is all this?
Hey, are you okay?
Why are you filming me?
I told you I don't wanna be part of your fucking movies.
Oh, Jesus.
Pat, is that Margaret's dress?
Why would you...
What if someone told you
they could bring her back?
I, who told you that?
Patrick, she's dead.
I'm sorry.
I miss her too, but this,
this isn't right.
Don't look in there.
Please leave.
I want you to have something.
I don't expect you to wear this, but,
just keep it on you, okay?
It helped me when I needed it.
For some reason, the people my brother works for
asked him to store their junk in our house.
And I went through a trunk of theirs.
What was inside?
Well, a lot of things, but I found this.
It's sheet music.
So let's see.
♪ Somethings coming
♪ Cold the nightfall
♪ All things die
♪ And never come back
♪ Throw the ashes
♪ Grasp your crosses
♪ Pray to him
♪ You'll never come back
♪ Life's a circle
♪ Full of darkness
♪ Stay with him
♪ And never come back
Jesus. Pat, where do you work?
Where'd you go, Chase?
Come on.
Hey, Margot.
Margot, it's time to go.
What?
No, we are not leaving here without my brother.
What?! - And what if
something happened to him?
What are we gonna do?
Just wait for something to happen to us?
No it's, you know my brother.
He's gonna be fine.
He probably just had another episode and he's coming back.
Right, right.
He just wandered off again
with his bag in the middle of the hallway
without his phone.
Are you serious right now? - Let's at least give him
some more time while the the sun is up.
Doesn't that make more sense? - Margot!
I don't wanna wait here another second.
Please don't make me. - Can we just give him
more time and we will leave before it's dark?
I promise.
Please.
Fine, okay? Fine.
Two o'clock. Okay?
And that's it. That's it.
I am driving out of here with or without Chase.
Or you.
Very little is known about Andrew Tully's early days,
but we've been able to figure out a few details.
Tully was once a deeply-religious man
with a family living in Arkansas in the 1960s.
He had a younger daughter
who died tragically, Abigail Tully.
And from there it becomes a little hazy
because he fled an arrest warrant.
That much we know, it's on record.
On the run in your home state, what do you do?
Where do you go?
Tully goes to Clarksburg, West Virginia,
meets two men named Thomas Rollins and Freddy Perkins.
What we know about Thomas Rollins and Freddy Perkins
before they moved to Abaddon, New York,
is that they ran a gaming stand, Down-A-Clown,
just the two of them,
throughout the late '60s and early '70s.
But in Catherine's footage, there's a third clown suit.
Who does that belong to?
There is a case to be made
that the cult started right there
at a small-town fair in West Virginia,
where Tully would meet with his closest confidants.
And they followed him to Abaddon, New York,
where they built their cover story hotel
and hired a bunch of locals to work there.
Locals like Patrick Carmichael.
Margot, now it's four o'clock.
Okay? We, we gave him two extra hours.
He's not here. It's time to go.
Okay? Let's go to the car.
No. Oh...
Fuck, okay, yeah.
I'm sorry, Chase. I'm sorry.
Once we get into town,
we'll go straight to the police, okay?
They'll find him, Margot.
Okay. They, they're good at that stuff.
Right now, we have to look after ours...
What?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
No, no, no, no, no, no, no.
What's wrong?
I don't know. I'm, I'm not a goddamn mechanic.
I don't...
Fuck- - Rebecca. Rebecca, Jesus.
Okay. Um- - I knew I shouldn't
have come here.
I knew I shouldn't have fucking come here.
It's okay, okay, listen. Listen.
It's 4 o'clock.
If we leave right now on foot,
we will make it to the main road before the sun goes down.
That's 12 miles through woods and back roads.
We'll never make it. - I-I know we'll make it,
um, unless you want to stay.
We wait till tomorrow.
Donald comes back and we just stay the night.
Oh, fuck.
Okay, if we go right now on foot,
we walk a mile, what, every 15, 20 minutes?
We can make it back before it is dark.
Come on. We gotta go now.
Okay, let, let's do it.
Let, let's walk.
The Carmichael Woods is acres and acres of private woods.
And that's even before you get to the miles
of back roads and small paths.
So sure, they probably could have made it
to town before nightfall,
but that was going to be a challenge.
And that was before they saw what they saw.
Anything?
Still nothing.
Careful.
Careful, careful. - Fuck.
Careful.
I'm okay.
So we've been walking for about an hour
and we're making good time.
And I think, I think we're gonna make it
before the sun's down.
God, I hope so.
And yeah. So that's all I got for you.
I guess tomorrow we're gonna get a tow
and keep looking for Chase.
Do you see anything?
Nothing.
Anything?
Let's just keep going.
Fuck.
Did you hear that?
Was that like a bird?
The hell was that?
Oh shit. Let's run.
No, we can't run.
Just, just walk fast. Walk fast, go.
We can't run nine miles.
Go.
Why?
Why on God's earth is there a hearse out here?
Oh my God.
Come on. Let's keep going.
What?
What is that?
Oh my God.
Yeah, okay.
Holy shit. Holy shit.
Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit.
Holy shit, holy shit. Holy shit.
Go!
I can't, I can't run anymore.
Yes, you can give me your hand.
We are not staying out here with whatever the fuck that was.
Go! - Okay.
Come on.
- I see it. - Go.
- I see it. - Thank God. Thank God.
Go.
Go, go. Go.
Do you have to film right now? Just stop.
If there was ever a time to make sure
that we were filming everything, it is literally right now.
Margot, I just wanna get out of here.
Okay. I don't care about your stupid murders.
I never did- - There's a reason
that this is happening.
Everything that we've seen, those things in the woods,
it means that we're getting closer to the truth.
Who cares if we find out
who fucking killed Kennedy in this house?
None of it matters if we're dead.
Well, I'm fucking sorry
that I ever brought you here, okay?
I didn't think I was taking you against your will,
I thought you actually wanted to.
Sorry!
Okay?
Fuck.
You have service?
It's a text from Chase. It's a text from Chase.
Okay. Well, what does it say?
It just says, "Hi."
That doesn't make any sense.
Why? Where's this phone?
I-I left it in his room.
H-how is that possible?
I don't know.
G-good. Maybe he's back in his room.
No don't, don't, don't go.
Just, just text him back.
Okay. Okay.
Okay.
Um, um.
Hey, where have you been?
"Met some new friends."
What does that mean?
I don't know.
Who are your friends?
"They wanna meet you."
What is he talking about?
What friends? Who are they?
Why don't you come to our room?
But, no. What if that's not him.
That's what I'm trying to find out.
"They won't like that."
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
Margot, I have to leave here.
I cannot stay here.
"Okay, I'll come."
- I'm leaving. - To where?
Just, Rebecca, stop. Just wait.
Please wait.
Who is that?
Hello?
Chase?
Chase, is that you?
What are you doing?
Don't stop filming.
I love you.
Don't go, please, don't.
Please.
No, no, no, no, no. No.
Oh, god.
Hello?
W-what does it say?
What?
It, it says
"They're in your room now."
Stop. It's okay.
I don't wanna stay here. No fucking way.
Rebecca, stop.
Come back.
It's okay. Calm down.
Calm down, Rebecca. Calm down.
Don't tell me to fucking calm down!
Fuck.
Pat, We, we thought you were dead.
No, I was in jail.
You arm? How did you?
Won't need that any more.
Pat?
Pat!?
What happened at that hotel?
They're saying it was a mass suicide.
Were you there?
No. I told you, I was in jail.
Got into a fight.
Do you know what happened?
The hotel you worked at, they're all dead.
They didn't die. They just crossed over.
I was supposed to be there.
Crossed over?
What do you mean, crossed over?
Are you listening to yourself?
You shouldn't be filming me.
Turn the camera off.
Catherine.
What we know about the mass suicide at the Abaddon Hotel
is that in the weeks leading up to it,
very strange and unexplainable events
were happening all around the area.
Almost like whatever they were doing in that basement
was releasing some sort of dark energy.
Turns out the Carmichael Manor was no exception.
You can tell that something about Patrick
was different that night.
Catherine confronts Patrick
about the suicides at the Abaddon,
and that was the last night of her life.
Whatever came for them that night was able to do so
without leaving a single track in the snow.
Not a trace.
It's okay.
They're in the house.
Catherine.
What the hell?
Start. Please start, please.
Please!
Oh, no, no, no.
Hello? Hello?
Fuck, why won't you work?
Fuck, fuck, fuck. Okay.
I need it to be like that. I really...
C'mon, c'mon, c'mon.
Margot!
W-w-what was that?
Margot, please.
Wait, Margot. Margot.
Something's not right. I don't think that's Chase.
It's him. It's him.
I know it's him.
Margot, I'm asking you, please, that's not him.
Don't go.
Just stay here and lock the door.
Margot.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
It's working. It's working.
Hi, my name is Rebecca Vickers.
We're at Carmichael Manor at 101 Starlight Drive,
please, something's in the house with us.
Margot! That's not him!
Fuck!
Hello? Hello?
Shit.
Margot!
Hey, Chase.
Hey, hey Chase.
Oh my God! Oh my God!
Fuck. Fuck, Chase.
Chase, no.
Rebecca!
Rebecca, Chase is hurt.
Chase is hurt.
Rebecca, we need to get help.
Rebecca. No, no, no, no.
Rebecca! Rebecca!
Open the door!
Please, please.
Chase is hurt.
Please, we have to-
No, no!
I know what you did.
I was there.
No, no, no. No, no, no.
Please stop, please stop, please stop.
No, no.
No, please. Please, no!
Please, please, please, please.
Please stop.
Please stop, no please.
Please. No, no, no, no.
No. No, no, please.
I don't,
please.
It's not over.
Evil never dies.
No fire will ever destroy it.
You can never claim victory over it.
That evil will always exist and it will always be there.
Sometimes in plain sight.
If anyone finds this recording,
I had no choice.
We all serve him in different ways.
Stop talking!
It'll be over soon.
Did you guys hear
that Rockland County's starting the fair up again?
No way.
Yeah, right in Abaddon.
I guess, they figured since the hotel's gone,
all is well again.
