This is a graveyard?

Oh.

I thought you knew.

Lots of people

come down here now.

Looking for ghosts.

Since news came out

that the station

was built on Potter's field.

Potter's field

was a graveyard?

No, it was a cemetery

for the faithless.

The poor.

And friendless.

So they just

built right over it?

Something like that.

Some people call it the

stranger's graveyard.

Cemetery officially

closed in 1855.

The next of kin was

given the option

of either claiming the

body or having it moved.

So the bodies were moved?

Those that were

claimed were moved.

And the strangers

were left behind?

That's the rumor.

About 5,000 or so unclaimed.

What exactly brought

you down here?

Honestly?

I thought I knew, but

now I'm not so sure.

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

I better get on.

Maybe I'll see you again.

Okay.

Kel?

Kelly?

Help me.

Will you help me?

Help me.

If

you know who this is,

then you know what to do.

Damnit, kell, come on.

You're not real.

Help me.

-Help me.

- Emily?

Help me.

Help me.

No.

What?

How can I help you?

Yes, I'd like a flight

from Detroit to Toronto.

Miss Johansen?

Miss Johansen?

Are you still down here?

Miss Johansen?

It's me.

Detective Richards.

We met earlier.

So what happened?

I don't know.

I saw a woman.

What'd she look like?

Just an image, like

smoke with no eyes.

Did you see anything else?

No, nothing else.

What about your research?

What'd you find?

Something I've

never seen before.

It's below any infrasonic

sound I've ever recorded.

What does that mean?

It's a type of sound,

sound that's below

the threshold of human

hearing, can't really be heard,

but it can be felt.

There are researchers,

people like me,

believe that this

type of tactile sound

is what causes ghost

sightings, which are really

just hallucinations.

How would that be?

Well, the sound

causes vibrations.

Vibrations that cause

subtle eye movement,

movement in the

matter around you.

If this type of sound

is strong enough,

it can bend metal,

it could crush a car.

Here's a different

school of thought.

People that think the sound

is caused by the spirits.

That the frequency opens

up some sort of portal

to the other side,

which is, of course,

completely ridiculous.

So you don't believe

that ghosts are real?

I've spent my entire

career proving they're not.

Why would this place

have that kind of sound?

This station,

because it's under

other functioning stations

serves as a sort of vessel

for this tactile sound.

So how would you

prove that these waves

of what these people

are seeing down here?

I've been looking over

the map of the tunnels

and there's an area,
