Would you guys ever consider doing an episode where you guys investigate three separate locations and decide which one of the three is the actually haunted one????? Proud of the stuff you guys have been doing

[@sabibatasnim1334]

Through out your ghost hunting journey was there any place or story of that place that stuck with you? Also love you guys a lot and thanks for always entertaining us #debrief

[@breebennett9597]

#debrief First, love what y'all do and this one of my favorite videos of the week. Second, have you ever had to turn down an offer to go ghost hunting in a location?

[@HeIIsFreakShow]

What's the scariest "proof" that has actually moved Shane's disbelief by just a tiny bit?

[@SawyerR-d3j]

is there anything that you guys have caught on camera that shane ACTUALLY thinks is compelling evidence? or is it all bullshit? love u guys btw

[@Ambeaniance]

"I'm gonna... everyone... disappoint." Me too, ghost. Me too.

[@sorrel_leaf_vespers]

Most relatable ghost

[@TR-qf2gt]

the ghost just needs a hug 🫂

[@glittle2023]

Says it will disappoint everyone and then asks for snacks and drinks, definitely the most relatable ghost out there.

I feel like this episode was just Ryan and Shane wanting to go look at dinosaurs

[@JustBadGrammar]

Only 19 seconds in and I'm like, 'Oh my god, the Ghoul Bois are loose in a museum at night! Exactly the pick-me-up I frickin' need.'

[@MAVonYT]

[@JustBadGrammar]

@@TealWolf26 To be fair, Ryan has been flexin' some mad courage lately. I'm proud of my guy! (That said™, it is hilarious when Ryan's losing his mind.)

[@eden8992]

"Stop. Tried. Nighttime." this is exactly what I think a ghost would say if some people came to their cool museum home at night and started shouting. by far the most compelling evidence I've ever seen

[@vulgarfvckr6148]

I kind of assume the Ovilus isn't perfect (similar to smartphone autocorrect or speech-to-text) and just mistook "Tired" for "Tried" bc yeah that would so be me if I lucked out and got to haunt a museum after I died

[@bur_n_t]

@@vulgarfvckr6148 maybe the ghost is dyslexic

[@eden8992]

@vulgarfvckr6148 oh! I've also thought the ovilus worked that way, but it can only catch a few words at a time. I was thinking the ghost was like stop, you tried man. It's nighttime, people are trying to sleep or something like that lol

[@vulgarfvckr6148]

@@eden8992 oh man that also makes sense given that it can only catch a word here and there. snippets of a full sentence instead of just a ghost being like "well I can only say a word at a time, so I better make it count!"

[@saralovelace7219]

So here's the thing: As someone who has routinely hung around with the specific sort of nerd (affectionate) who would work in the paleontology lab in a natural history museum, and whose parents were lab workers... that Estes session made TOTAL SENSE. They wanted to know how y'all were communicating, they wanted snacks and caffeine, they were calling each other over to see what was happening, and then they were just being doofuses pranking on each other and y'all. And when you said you were gonna leave they doubled down and were like "BRING SNACKS!" That was great and, frankly, gave me a feeling of very pleasant nostalgia.

[@poetdrowned]

This is one of my favorite comments ever! That scene was already fun but this just makes so much sense and made the whole thing even more fun!

[@bunnykisses]

These were my thoughts exactly !

[@isabela9005]

that is such a fun perspective!! all the responses in this video made the most sense to me out of all of the ghost files series. they made sense and felt like they would be what the machine could translate from what could be being said by ghosts

They should see your post so they get it as well. I thought some of it made sense. They wanted food and were starving. Peanuts 😅.

[@agingethically]

Hearing an entity saying something like “What’s poppin’” actually makes sense. I’ve often wondered why “recently deceased” ghosts aren’t just as vocal as centuries old entities.

Also the wholesome part is the staff leaving the greeting note which was obviously done by someone who watches the show.

Shane being embarrassed by how loud and silly Ryan is being in the stairwell after years of Ryan watching him scream profanities at ghouls is possibly the oddest character development ever.

[@ars_moriendi]

[@rabbit6546]

I think this episode shane was hindered by his respect for the museum, he didn’t commit to the bit for the challenges either it seemed like he was too embarrassed by the thought of the NH museum watching this episode LOL

[@tenten98]

for the debrief: would you guys ever consider ghost hunting with a dog? since i hear so much about how animals can sense things that we humans don’t, i thought it’d be interesting to see an animal’s reaction in a supposedly haunted location. sorry if this question has already been asked and addressed before, i don’t remember if it has. love the work y’all do, keep it up ❤️

[@Thepc425]

They should bring Ryan’s dog in.

it would be wayyy to noisy and harder to execute the actual investigation

[@abbyryder2549]

Okay, this is actually one of the coolest locations. Never thought of ghost hunting a museum.

[@NHMLA]

Truthfully, we're honored

[@dianahutsel7101]

When I was a GG leader, we slept every year in the museum in an old castle in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada 🇨🇦. It was haunted, but we never told the girls. We leaders really enjoyed the spooky aspect, telling stories after the girls were asleep. We never got any sleep ourselves, but the noises and shadows were great fun. 😊

[@isabela9005]

never expected him to be a bird man lol but in retrospect it does make sense

[@killsims]

We met a side of Shane that was previously unrevealed to us. He is indeed a big ol' bird man and it's so wholesome. And If he ever gives up the ghosting and goes for that job as the nightwatchman, this entire community can vouch for his nighttime perusing skills and his love of the museum.

[@depressedpebbles]

I think when weird stuff happens, we all forget the fact that the boys once put on cat ears and tried to trigger a ghost dog by meowing. Like, girl, that stuff was weirder and more supernatural than any ghost lol

The Estes session with Shane played out like an adult who doesn’t like kids trying to make conversation with one 😭

​@@SpaceMarineAnait was worried it was going to disappoint everyone 😢 and apparently ghosts are all starving and this one craves movie theater junk food so bad. such a bummer of a coherent estes session

[@hollypop368]

As someone who has worked in multiple museums, yes most of them are haunted/have spirits. It’s just the nature of collecting objects throughout history. A lot of the time it is residual energy and it’s typically triggered by something like rain. I’m actually a little shocked they were allowed back in collections without a collections manager or curator. To me that’s the wildest part of this episode.

[@AFGsultanZ]

They should definitely explore more historical landmarks and museums, especially like the popular ones, or the underrated ones. Heck if they travel to other parts of the U.S., plus Europe, Asia, even the Middle East and maybe Latin America, that would be really cool.

Hey guys, first of all, very entertaining episode! Second of all, and more importantly, you caught a whole bunch of evidence with boo buddy but I don’t think you know what the phrases mean.

Can you please say it again?” - It picked up an EVP, so you should probably take a close look at your devices. 2) “*giggles* That tickles.” - It’s picking up on EMF changes in general. 3) “Did you touch my tummy?” - Something is literally touching its stomach, there should be a light on its stomach that lights up too. 4) “Are you holding my hand?” - something is touching one of its hands, the affected hand will like up as well. 5) “Brrrr. It’s cold.”- Temperature drop. 6) “It’s getting warm” (not 100% Sure if this is the exact phrase tbh) - Temperature rise. Again these phrases may be a bit off but it will be something similar. Unfortunately my brain does not come with phonographic memory so they may be different. If anyone else in the comments knows more of the non-prompt speech or if I got anything wrong please feel free to comment! Again it does not take away too much from the investigation but it would be cool to see if another device picks up on the same thing at the same time! Love you guys!

7:49 there is a whisper after ryan says “us” that repeats him prior to the sls going out. super audible and spooOooky

I feel like at one point with the Ovilus, the entity was acting as a sort of tour guide. That was my favorite part of the episode, it looked like fun. I used to want to to sneakily stay in a museum overnight as a kid, this literally would be my dream lol Did you guys ever have a fascination with wanting to see a spirit when you were children as well? (Though, I'm sure Shane will say he outgrew it by the time he was 12 haha)

[@BeanTheBrave]

For the Debrief: has Boo Buddy ever picked up anything suspicious or frightening? He’s adorable nonetheless 😊

[@paprikapringless9526]

Ryan, Shane, please, I want you to know that in 2023 Ghost Files pretty much saved my life. One of the things I kept telling myself was 'hey, you won't get to see the new season of Ghost Files you love so much if you leave now'. I'm much better now, but I'm tearing up just thinking back to that time and I'm so grateful that you two exist, and your whole crew, and you create something so great, I literally didn't want to leave before I got to see it. I love you all.

I'm grateful they helped keep you here. I hope they keep episodes for a very long time 😁

[@CaptainLuckyDuck]

I think the best thing about this episode for me was that you got to see just how supportive and real the friendship Ryan and Shane actually have is. Whilst I absolutely LOVE the goofy shit and cackle every episode, Shane put it away for a moment to help Ryan really have a bit of introspection on himself as Shane knows that Ryan really struggles with his own self-esteem. It was a really beautiful moment, honestly, and shows that Shane really cares about Ryan as a person and wants him to see the worth he and so many others (including myself) see in Ryan. It got me in the feels, my dudes. If y'all read this, please know that y'all are good people- both of y'all. Feels good, man. Feels real good.^^

[@watchersleuth]

seeing a literal ghost file as evidence is pretty cool ngl

[@LukeMadeley3536]

It’s really wholesome seeing Shane try to help give Ryan some more self-confidence through one of his challenges, even if he used the other one to annoy him! ❤

[@gandalfthegrey4694]

"Stop. Tried. Nighttime." Is the single most compelling piece of evidence I've seen from the Ovilus 😂 Also SO cool that you guys gotta go to THE Night of the Museum museum. Oddly fitting haha.

not sure if you guys caught it but HUGE piece of evidence: at 20:25 you can hear an apparition of owen wilson saying “wow”. CLASS A EVP!!!!!!!!

[@watcher]

Unfortunately, this was only our camera operator Owen Wilson, who sometimes can't keep his excitement to himself. Thanks for keeping an eye out, though! - Lizzie (Producer)

[@DrakeDeath]

Did anyone else notice this: When Shane goes into his solo investigation, the door creaks. The second the creaking stops, it sounds like a male voice that either goes "ohh" or "hello". I replayed it for my partner, who also agreed it sounded like a voice.

It’s used for Crohn’s too. I have Crohn’s and have considered taking it. It lowers an overactive immune system.

The whole part between Shane and Boo-Buddy at 43:51 is really adorable. (Though it does make me think Boo-Buddy is possessed.)

I wish you guys would walk around with the ovulus on the whole time every episode!! What a wild session using it this time! It really responded to you!

[@ambarcastaneda4763]

This has got to be one of (if not THE) episodes with the most relevant and timely responses. It really surprised me. Quite compelling.

[@Bampiss]

Or the sls. On it all the time so you can see the anomaly being. (Especially when using the boosubi thingy where they need to pick a side)

[@joshuayarrington9684]

@watcher Thank you, can't wait.

[@khrystaliah]

I’m about to look these up, they seem interesting

[@Jane_Dough1]

I’ve seen at least one video on about half of these subjects. The 411 series is very interesting and entertaining (and those cases deserve attention and continued investigation) but several families and people interviewed by David claim that several things have been left out of his narrative/videos that really cast a different light on the cases. Overall, I’m glad the channel exists and David does the work that he does, but the journalism and sources leave a lot to be desired. A similar channel with great proof of sources and research is Lore Lodge. They cover similar cases and often come across the same references.

[@AFGsultanZ]

Can’t wait until they do many of these

[@MeliMiyoko]

“What are you? Batman?” Absolutely took me out! That whole exchange was so funny. I didn’t realize I haven’t laughed in a few days, thanks ghoul boys! 👻

This might be my favorite episode. Shane and Ryan bonding with the ghosts at the museum? Pure cinema.
