I thought the same. Something being dragged across the floor

[@markh3271]

What makes the latest noises different is how close they seem to be to the recorder. Most of the previous ones seemed to occur farther away from the device but yesterday's sounded close-by.

[@sherilynl4038]

i noticed that as well. sooo curious.

[@robbierousseau]

To be clear, the recording was 6:37 in the morning, not in the evening (that would be 18:37).

[@mavep2855]

A pyjama party at the convent, just three or four people, air mattresses and sleeping bags followed by breakfast in the new kitchen. Food for thought! Simon works so efficiently, it is pleasure to watch him and Yanis is following in his footsteps. Thanks Billy.🇨🇦❤️🙏

[@CherylSimser]

Those long corridors are spooky and reminiscent of old horror movies I've seen. One has the expectation of something popping out of any one of those doorways or at the hallway's end where IT may come rushing at you at hyperspeed. Geez, I just scared myself!! Doh!

[@gioiapharo7433]

I think Billy said ….. in my words ….. “ freaked out and would not return to spend the night “

[@rochellesmith7762]

The bell was more than likely used in the garden to alert anyone working or praying outside. Such as two dings for dinner and/or three dings for prayer time. It was a communication device.

[@russellr8929]

Billy get some small cameras set them around the convent but don't say anything about it in on video in case someone is watching your show and see what you pick up see if someone is living in the building , breaking in,or paranormal

[@markhenderson4001]

try the old sprinkle talcum powder on the floor trick.

[@Moonbatcrazy]

Every time I see the kitchen in the view of the opening of the show it’s so beautiful and it seems to become so much more each time. I see it with the golden glow around the room. Giving it a true and distinct feeling and ambience of an old classic Victorian kitchen. ( better yet… what you actually start cooking some wonderful things in there, The aroma will match the ambience of the room. And become One in its own !

[@trinciacakewalk]

Exciting! Now there is definitely something making noises. I’m so curious to what it might be.

[@blueice011]

Very much so! It might be sensitivity of the mic or proximity of the noise source, but banging is rather loud and clear, it seems it's closer than it was in previous recordings. Perhaps it's time to contact paranormal investigation channel that has already got in touch with Billy explaining that they were staying in the convent during few nights when it wasn't purchased by Gwen and Billy yet. They have the gear for further exploration. It's spooky, curious and humbling at the same time. Whatever it may be, respectful and cautious approach would be wise. And some spiritual guidance, perhaps, from a priest or someone who knows how to deal with such occurrences if proved to be something otherwise inexplicable.

[@Hollybank5]

Oh my … the sounds are louder , more prolonged too 😮. I can’t wait to see if the camera picks up something !!!

Previous recordings could be explained by birds (even though they are rather similar despite being recorded in different places). But yesterday’s is just too many different noises. As much as I like ghost stories, I have a feeling as if something is living/hiding in the building and comes out at night. The latest recording definitely seems like someone is walking around banging on stuff.

[@connieprettyman6131]

I Agree!

[@edwardg.5212]

It's a ghost nun walking around whacking things with a ruler.

[@cattoes5]

If it is ghost , the more construction you do the more they will be active. But you would think there would be at least some voices .I really wouldn't worry about anything that would harm you if they haven't done anything so far.

[@leighnisbett9691]

There was voices in the background ,you need to slow down the recordings to get the best possible answers .

[@kentmccroskey3712]

You do realise that it was 6:37 AM, as the recording below is 15:28 (3:28 PM), so what time did you guys arrive in the morning

[@bry_mac-tyred]

As for the suspected haunting/ mystery sounds, my grandmother used to spread flour and/or salt on hardwood and laminated floors, on occasion powdery sand or wood dust. The results were mainly field mice were making their way into the farmhouse to prepare for winter. Perhaps give the area a sweep to remove your traffic and dust the floors?

[@margaretporcello5871]

What a wonderful idea.

[@dawncathlene]

I'm excited you're doing video now! I'm so curious about the footsteps

[@madelinejarvis7353]

[@fiberotter]

Well that was the noisiest recording yet. Nothing like the other rooms.

[@ourfloridagarden4191]

That was a cool street view to open the vid. Don’t think I’ve seen that angle before. Blessings

[@thedriver02]

there is lots of plausible sources for the noise, an animal or bird, a car or truck, something banging in the wind. The bizzare part is that it seems somewhat consistent each night throughout different areas, and usually only for a short amount of time. A bird or animal or cars driving by would be throughout the night one would think.

[@lua99lovinit56]

I was thinking birds or animal, coming to roost for the night or waking up and rummaging around

[@WensleydaleBrown-wo5rg]

Possibly it's the mama and baby owl. Owls are nighthawks, err night Owls correct?

[@myrnaattaway2889]

My dads house is a new build timber structure. It made popping sounds for 18 years. One day I noticed a dip in the floot and discovered that two vertical timbers were not directly over the foundation collums. Some foundation work stopped the sounds. I suspect your sounds are related to the sinking of the elevator. If you can accuratly measure the decibles you can locate where the sounds are eminating from.

[@Eowyn3Pride]

Oh! Brilliant! 😮

Best explanation so far. That would explain why it sounds like construction work.

Billy, it could be thermal expansion/contraction of the old structure around the elevator shaft. It also could be a squatter/explorers. Could you place the device in the elevator shaft or near it to see if the noises are louder?

[@michellebyrom6551]

I live in a house with zinc outer walls. Before the insulation in the roof was greatly improved, the house was Very noisy. It took me 2 to 3 years not to wake up and walk through the house, just to be sure no one had broken in. I continued to wake in spring and autumn on the noisiest nights for the next decade. I've also lived in 16th and 17th houses with a lot of wood framing and wooden walls. The noises in the recording are more like someone moving furniture, or metal buckets to mop the floor. It definitely doesn't sound like wood or metal expanding/contracting.
