[@jadenbird5883]

Was thinking this, America has a fairly recent history. Imagine heading into English castles or Asian forts

[@phinbellalover14]

hope they'll have the budget to do so because there really are places claimed to be more haunted than those in the US

[@copperain550]

I would be stoked with just one international special per season.

[@puterialwani8647]

Especially south east asian haunted places

[@mildlypepper]

They talked about that at one of the Live shows. iirc they said it boils down to being too expensive, and getting permission to film at international locations is also more difficult bc older locations have more historical considerations. They said it would definitely be a possibility in the future and is something they are thinking about though, so there's that.

[@eileen8787]

Just pointing out a weird connection. I actually am not a huge fan of the ovulus as a credible source of evidence BUT, I did find it strange when Shane was on his solo, how well it described everything that was happening to him, or what he was doing, like how it said “unholy” when describing how ugly spiders were, “threshold” when he was about to walk through a doorway, “interrupt” when Ryan woke him up from his nap, “window,” and “show” when Shane was showing his face through the window. Anyway, not sure what to make of it, but I did find it oddly specific and accurate.

[@Joonivy]

Also 'haunting' and 'brave' during Ryan's solo! It kinds sounds like a child trying to comment on anything's happening around them... perhaps... Itsy?

[@brissalcido8534]

Yes, I am also very skeptic of the ovulus, but even my shaniac husband said that the responses for this one were very consistent to what was happening, no just saying random $hit.

[@scenekidtuesday]

i thought this as well! i don’t normally take the ovilus seriously even though i’m a believer, unless it’s very specific or on the nose. this was a great example of how it can be useful! but it isn’t always lol

[@SpecialRecoom]

My biggest problem with the ovulus is when they turn on the REM pod with the ovulus the REM pod emits an EMF and the ovulus picks up EMF

[@otis-d2v]

Yeah same. In fact I take absolutely nothing any "investigator" uses as useable or credible. Only 1-digital and or Tape Recorders because recordings don't lie and camera vid. All these types "investigating" with no lights and such make no sense since Ghosts don't give a Shi^ about light lol if they are there they are there period. Flashlights half on and off mean nothing at all. I saw a guy use a button actuated flashlight and when the flashlight went Click and turned on then again and off that was the only real flashlight ghost thing I ever found to be credible all mag lights do the trick since they run off of electrical energy humans create static when in rooms when moving talking etc so no emf things count as credible either

[@MiirandasWayyss]

I really love that Shane is a skeptic but isn’t negative about everything. He actively investigates without shutting every thing down. Serious respect for that.

[@ILoooooveCamels]

he is the BEST sport.

[@samanthaseaman9632]

Instigates* lol

[@InsanityPlea100]

He is the worst sport. He goes in before ryan gets there and actively tells his demon brothers not to show themselves, just to put ryan through his own personal h e double hockeysticks of having to not find evidence again and again!

[@GabeHorn699]

​@InsanityPlea100 he goes into places and demands them to show themselves and they don't. Makes no difference here or the goatmans bridge because it's all in Ryan's imagination so there's no hell going on except what's in his boogara brain

[@graciegolding9508]

Idk what he's thinking but he does actively bug the demons/ghosts whatnot. Probably sucks up all the energy, the big lout. He's going along with Boog to watch him freak out. It's quite hilarious, actually. I know people who use to be able to see dead people a l Haley Joel Osment but it went away. Do they exist? Who knows. There's more we don't know than we know. Universes are giant mysteries.

[@raymondclarke8504]

I’m a shaniac but at 12:27 I’m surprised Ryan didn’t mention how there’s a very clear shadowy figure that moves by the moving toys. It’s honestly the weirdest part about that video.

[@forest_goblinn]

Same, I noticed that too

[@blacktenshi7]

The dress in the right corner of the room moves too in that portion. I suspect the wind in this one.. 🤔

[@SrDiesel]

@@blacktenshi7 I was looking for this comment! Whats weird is that the dress actually flicks up and on the way back stops half way as though somethings holding it so it cant be wind because then you'd assume more of the dress would've moved with the swing but it just seems like it was grabbed and moved. IMO anyway

[@marleyjainz3104]

I saw the dress too..

[@Mysterious-Ninja]

Funny enough, I'm generally on team Boo-gara, but to me it looked like an electric fan had been held really low by a person who was crouching. The low angle of the breeze would cause the dress hem in the background to remain aloft. The balls also move more or less in the same direction (with some variation for size and the wind disruption that they would produce for each other), so it looks more like a fan blowing at them than an invisible being "playing." The shadow is probably from the person holding the fan, moving so they can keep the biggest ball moving after it rolled out of the breeze (it would catch the fan's drag better than the smaller balls, explaining why it's moving the most.)

[@EricJAllain]

I love the energy Shane brought to the children's room. Like "ghosts don't exist, but in the wild Chance they do, these kids deserve a fun time".

[@annika_panicka]

He's such a good sport on the investigations nowadays. If his bromance with Ryan ever ends, millions of viewers will go into mourning. Also, Watcher would suffer, but I think they're in it for the long haul.

[@jared.b.rekless]

46:29 The rem-pod starts going to its highest just as Shane sets his hat on the table.

True, but "hat etiquette" dictates that the interior not be in plain view...which kind of runs counter to the not placing it brim down; in all fairness, he should've removed it when he entered and placed it on a hat stand/coat rack...at this point, it'd be closer to a private home (especially if Ranger Campbell is still around) than a hotel (as they're the only "inhabitants" for this shoot).

[@deniseyeaisaidit]

I watched a few different ghost hunting channels and the only channels that get real hits (legitimate) are people who are respectful to the space and the ghosts and they are not cracking jokes every five seconds. There’s been so many times where Ryan and Shane have gotten great clues and hits and they turn it into an ad lib to be funny. I know I may sound like a Debbie downer, but I miss when Ryan took this seriously and I know half the time he cracks jokes so that he won’t be scared but the “hunting” has shifted. Remember when the ghost call them nerds because they were going back-and-forth about a word in the dictionary, that shows you that they 100% hear you and are watching you and most are ready to communicate. And they are not going to engage you if you’re acting like a bunch of clowns and saying rude ass shit. I know this won’t be a popular comment and that’s OK but I got to speak my truth. I know I can’t be the only one who has noticed this and feels this way. 👻👻👻

For the debrief: I’m a Shaniac but I want to be fair and point out that there were actually some moments in the episode where extra bits of “evidence” seem to occur. In the cat toy evidence video (12:26) there’s a shadow that moves through the doorway. The dress in the corner also moves though so maybe a window was open and a breeze moved the ball. Then in the video evidence of the moving picture frame (35:45) another shadow moves across the right side of the screen. And at 46:10, I heard a whisper in the background when Ryan asks someone to move the chair. Loved the episode and love the show. Keep it up :)

[@SweetmeatsFan]

You can't imagine how grossed out I was to hear 'virginity' from Ovilus when the guys were in the murderer's room; considering the murder of a 12 year old girl, the most gruesome suspicions come to mind. It was also striking how Ovilus has been really spot on about objects in this house - 'window', 'threshold', 'raid', 'ax'

[@enouementl]

i was thinking the same thing!!

[@ambersmith459]

Same. And a few seconds before that it had said "vulva" 🤢

[@greta2500]

Thissss!!!! for the #debrief ! And perhaps "Help her" instead of "helper"? From another ghost, concerned about the girl?

[@stupidbroad]

and "scored" euh..

[@kyallon1213]

It sucks that the Ovilus is the one piece of “ghost hunting equipment” that is by nature meaningless in terms of evidence. Like from the perspective of an engineer, the concept of “using environmental readings to make words” is a fancy way to say random word generator.

[@ChucklingVoid]

Haven't watched it yet but I think Ryan is going to go insane

[@nooo4765]

Isnt that, like, every episode?

​@nooo4765 Yes, but I thought he would be a little more crazy than normal

for the debrief: at 12:25 the dress that's hanging up in the background moves too, likely due to a breeze. at 12:28 a shadow figure moves in the bottom left corner

[@BlueWoWTaylan]

Yep

[@umbrellaotter7232]

YES

[@hydrophobicwater5843]

Also worth pointing out that the other dress hanging up more against the wall isn't moving at all while the other does. I'd expect to see some level of motion across the fabric, even if it were flat against the wall.

[@coolcaster7658]

Right after that in the same clip, there is movement toward the left of the screen too, to me it looks slightly humanoid.

[@SkyHigh899]

How did they miss it or not acknowledge it? Lol

Would love for Ryan to explore his Filipino heritage. Shane and Ryan can come visit the haunted war mansions and forts, schools, and hospitals in the Philippines !

The audience evidence of a person walking by the window when its a WORKING HOTEL actually had me giggling 😭😭 imagine walking up to a motel 6 and just shouting "the horrors!!!"

[@NeedyLilGuy]

Ikr! I work at a bar which is in a (supposedly haunted) 1780s cotton mill in rural England, 2 bartenders from different angles claimed they saw a full body apparition after we had closed and came to tell me about it the next day but it was absolutely just some guy

the magnolia hotel is super famous 'round here for being haunted so im sure that most people shrugged it off 😂

Seguin gets pretty dead around 10 or so. It still has lights that go to blinking after a certain time. It's highly unlikely there were people out walking.

[@ThatsPrettyFunnyMan]

I also love how Shane went from "Oops, that was loud" lookin around the street after ringin the bell, as if worried he's waking up the neighborhood, to "I can make some sort of jingle" while makin it ring non stop.

This is just my librarian brain talking, but I would be so curious to know if they would get any responses in the children's room from doing a storytime. I wanna see Shane reading The Very Hungry Caterpillar to a group of ghost children,

Ryan really be asking for a nice conversation and then out of nowhere threatening to throw hands. No wonder these ghosts got trust issues

[@Hacksaw-Ben-Thuggin]

The best aspect of watching them do this for some time is that Ryan seems less terrified and Shane seems more accepting of spooky shit

[@temeria1986]

Shane seems more accepting of spooky shit? Lmao you people see what you want to see I guess.

Debrief: beginning at 32:48, when ovilus says "river", "worry", "carpet", I was wondering if you realized that the Guadalupe River in Seguin has a history of flooding. Im not sure if the hotel ever flooded, but it seems likely based on its proximity to the river. Nice show!

[@kamham07]

We had a huge flood back in 98 and it didn't flood so if it has ever it wasn't recent or at least not due to the river.

[@TygerTigerable]

Wanted to add a paint is also a horse breed name, so coupled with the talk about raids n such makes sense

[@rosalocalinda]

I'm not a believer in ghosts and I don't watch any other ghost shows but you guys are the only ones that make it fun enough for me to watch.

[@GillenMeg]

Love how the whole point of this show is to communicate with ghosts and try to get evidence, but when the REM pod starts going crazy, Ryan says "It's getting annoying, it's a rude thing you're doing" and Shane says "Chill the f*ck out, these people f*cking people" lmaooo

[@vivianspitzer4554]

the whispering in the toy room is honestly one of the more compelling things i’ve seen lately

[@LaurelMarieGarcia]

I love that Shane says at 53:42 "I don't actually remember where anything is in here," then the Ovilus calls out 'details,' as if he/she/it is scolding him for not paying attention to details, lol. Then it says 'interrupt' at 58:51 after Ryan interrupted Shane snoozing.

[@elisabeta.x]

When Shane and Ryan were in buzzfeed, Shane said “it’s me ya boi” and now that they’re in watcher, Ryan is the one to now say the iconic line!!

[@ajb0yd]

17:05 Shane: "they liked the song, lets make it a little bit more cheery" Also Shane: *proceeds to sing The Itsy Bitsy Spider aggressively*

[@hizzee16]

This has got to be one of your best so far in terms of results from the Estes and Ovilus. Food while standing in the kitchen. Girl inside the girl's room. Window while standing by the window. And then Raid repeatedly. Also, chilling words when Ryan was inside the girl's room. Kill me. Chains. Very eerie. I'm a Shaniac through and through but my partner and I, who are both Shaniacs, found this episode very exciting!

[@udontevenwannaknowbruv]

I was pretty disappointed that they cut that session off rather quickly while the Estes was saying so many interesting things but they made it into more a jokey argument again. I usually love their humor but this Estes session had a lot of potential I just wish Ryan had taken that more seriously

[@TwoDimensional]

yeah i kept wondering why we kept hearing the word raid over and over by the Ovilus and once by shane when he had the headphones, then later shane was like, heres the raid shelter we didnt even visit and i was like WTF

[@catherinemccrary7063]

LOVE how they got more and more activity in the children's room the more fun that they started to have (at least after the open hostilities towards Boo Buddy had subsided lol). Their silliness really is infectious. Definitely seemed like a spirit wanted to play along!

[@annienunyabiz6627]

So let me get this straight. A hotel with a bad history becomes dilapidated and gets picked up by some rich investor. After this point, it magically suddenly becomes super haunted, and then is advertised as a super haunted hotel to come stay in. Sounds more like a person with a good business sense bought a hotel, spread rumors about the super spoopy goings-on, and a bunch of gullible schmucks fell for it. Good for the owner. I intend to do the same someday if I ever get the chance.

[@motionblurofhappy7804]

Not only that but one of the pieces of evidence where the clearly obvious human is in the window, someone came forward with video proof that it was them in the window of the hotel that actively has people in it. “OMG THERES SOMEONE IN THE WINDOW OF A HOTEL” they talk about that in the debrief though.

[@discountmorty213]

Yeah not really something new some hotels cash in on haunted areas and get those people to come experience it just like that hotel from the shinning

[@etherealgirl394]

for the Debrief: did any of the people living around the hotel complained about you guys goofing with the bell so late at night? lol great episode as always! love you guys!

I grew up in seguin and where it's located it's mostly businesses that were closed at the time. A few houses but more than likely they didn't get any complaints.

[@anappleiam4214]

For the Debrief, would y'all ever consider doing a control experiment with your equipment. Just so we can compare the tools to how they act in "haunted" places, versus locations with no reported paranormal activity?

[@anappleiam4214]

To whom it may concern, I asked this question last episode and it got a lot of likes but it still didn't make the Debrief. Remember, a squeaky wheel always gets greased.

During the Estes Method, could perhaps the "helper" have been "help her" instead? As in referring to Emma? They do say "girl" later on... And at 46:10, was there a whisper you guys perhaps missed? (Love you guys and I'll forever remain a Shaniac in the streets and a Boogara in the sheets)
