Chapter 8

What does Tory find in the attic?

Ghost Grabbers Episode 1

Unknown to Tory, she was not alone in the mansion. Three other people (two women and a man) were currently in the living room of the mansion, the man holding a camera as he pointed towards one of the women.

"Ghost Grabbers. Season one, episode one. Take one." The man said as he turned the camera on.

"Hello, everyone." The woman said with a smile, "And welcome to Ghost Grabbers. I'm Ashley Johanson, Paranormal Researcher. This is my co-host and parapsychologist," Ashley pointed to the second woman," Kelly Williams. And behind the camera is our cameraman, Seth McGuire. We're here at the old Chesterfields Mansion, rumored for the past fifty years to haunted by -"

"Seventy." Kelly corrected, adjusting her glasses as she gave an apologetic look. At Ashley's confused look, she said, "It was rumored to be haunted for the past seventy years. You said 'fifty'."

"Great." Ashley muttered, embarrassed. "Seth? Could you just -"

"Consider it on the cutting room floor." Seth replied, earning a nod of thanks from Ashley. "Just pick up from where we are."

Ashley cleared her throat. "We're here at the old Chesterfields Mansion, rumored for the past seventy years to be haunted by a poltergeist. Our mission is to stay the night and make contact with this spirit, catching all of it on camera. I'm Ashley Johanson. And this... Is Ghost Grabbers!"

"And this is where the intro goes in..." Seth said before turning the camera off. Turning to Ashley, he asked, "So, what's the plan? Do you want to set up some kind of rigging system to make noise or...?"

"And be exactly like every other, quote-unquote, 'ghost hunting' show on TV?" Ashley asked, shaking her head. "I don't think so! We're going authentic on this one!"

"Okay..."

"Now, I think that we should set up an EVP session next." Ashley said, "I'll explain to the viewers what that is, and then Kelly will explain what a poltergeist is."

"Sounds good to me." Seth said with a shrug, aiming his camera back at Ashley. He turned it on and simply said, "Action!"

"Now, one of the best ways to contact spirits is with the use of an EVP session." Ashley said into the camera, "EVP, of course, stands for 'Electrical Voice Phenomenon'. These are the sounds that are usually picked up on electrical recordings that are short and brief; usually a single word or a short phrase. Many times, these are caused by radio interference, but there are those times where these voices are truly unknown in origin. Being either a ghost or a poltergeist."

"Now, you may have noticed that word that Ashley has been using." Kelly began, "Poltergeists are, to put it simply, a type of ghost or spirit that is responsible for physical disturbances. These can range from something benevolent like knocking a cup onto the floor and making loud noises, to something much more malevolent like throwing objects and destruction of property. In fact, roughly translated, the word 'poltergeist' means 'noisy sp-' -"

**CRASH!**

"What the hell was that?!" Seth asked as he panned the camera up.

"I said we weren't faking this, Seth!" Ashley snapped, "We're here to actually hunt ghosts!"

"I didn't plan that!"

"Wait, did that come from the attic on the third story?" Kelly asked, "But no one could possibly -"

Kelly stopped as the three gained a look of surprise on their faces.

"You don't actually think..." Seth trailed of in bewilderment.

"Film everything!" Ashley shouted as she made her way to the stairs.

"Ash, wait!" Kelly called out as she chased after her co-host.

Anxious and nervous, Seth gulped as he followed the two women up the stairs.


"Ow..." Tory groaned as she picked herself up off the floor, sitting up as she rubbed her head. She looked around when she noticed a bright, flashing, red light next to her ass. Picking it up, Tory saw that it was a camera... And squealed as she threw it against the wall, watching it smash to pieces to stop recording her. What was that doing here?!

That didn't matter now. What mattered was getting clothes!

The naked young woman got to her feet as she looked around, spotting several things. First, there was an old wedding dress on a mannequin that seemed like the logical first choice... Until she realized that the dress was two sizes too small.

She then saw a wardrobe in a corner and raced towards it, stopping at the doors. She was just about to open it when...

"I heard it come from the attic!"

Troy let out a squeak as she heard the sound of footsteps racing towards the door, debating on where to hide...

Where does Tory hide? The wardrobe? Somewhere else?
