The R.I.P. Files: May 2

Last week the CI network began airing a new paranormal investigation series The R.I.P. Files.

Based in Washington DC, the team use their psychic abilities and metaphysical techniques to interact with entities they encounter at haunted locations.

Producer Patricia Marin told TV Tonight, “We fund this show ourselves through our very small business, Marin Group Productions. That means we’re not under any pressure to get results, produce evidence, etc. Our goal is to both entertain and educate our viewers, while creating a show that features real people and real evidence.

“We are all experienced paranormal investigators and we never fake anything. One of the things we do particularly well is get amazingly clear EVPs (spirit voices). In fact, many of them are so good that we’ve been accused of faking them. But they are 100% real.”

“The Mad Major”

Using hypnosis, Jim puts Sara into a trance that results in enhanced psychic senses and leads directly to the discovery of a previously unknown spirit on the second floor. When told about the incident later, the owner of Oaklands Mansion immediately recognises his great aunt as the spirit who appeared to Sara. And, through one lively encounter and several clear EVPs, Major Richard Contee (the ‘Mad Major’) proves that he’s still in command at Oaklands Mansion. Additional EVPs confirm the rumours of a woman and a child on the premises and provide intriguing clues about the possible identity of the young boy that may explain the reason behind the hauntings at Oaklands Mansion. 

Fridays at 11.30pm on CI.
