Paranormal State: Vegas
In this episode, the crew goes to Vegas to visit Savannah, a teenager who appears to be seeing dead people. Once again, I was really intrigued by the fact that Ryan didn’t immediately accept her story and that he was concerned for her emotional and mental well being. Savannah was the victim of assault a few years earlier and Ryan was concerned that she was using the ghost sightings as a way to deal with her trauma.
If you visit The Paranormal Insider blog, you’ll see that Savannah’s mother has several strange stories to tell but it doesn’t end there. During Ryan’s visit, Savannah drew a picture of one particularly visible spirit. A teen girl named Emily, who had also been assaulted but wasn’t lucky enough to survive. She drew a picture of Emily and then related details to the team that were very specific. Specific enough for the team to get a bead on exactly who the spirit belonged to.
Here’s where it gets wonky. In the episode, Ryan states that Savannah had details, such as the young victim’s pregnancy, that had never been reported on the Internet. Thus, she couldn’t know unless she had spoken to the dead girl. However, I did some investigating on my own and I found “Emily”, too. And those details ARE listed on the web. Now, I understand that these episodes of Paranormal State were filmed some time ago, so perhaps the websites weren’t active then.
Still. Take a look at the photo and the details for Emily Garcia at this website and see if you don’t notice a real resemblance to Savannah’s drawing at the top of this page.
