In Ghost Hunters season 13 episode 2, entitled The Lady In The Window, team leaders Grant Wilson and Daryl Marston head to New York's infamous Morris-Jumel Mansion. Built in 1765, the mansion was a residence for various high-profile figures, including George Washington and Aaron Burr, and is rumored to have ghosts lurking within its walls.
The team is brought in to investigate the mysterious appearance of a woman's face in a third-floor window that can't be explained by physical means. The figure has been seen by countless visitors, including staff, volunteers, and even the city's mayor.
The investigation begins with a quick history lesson on the mansion's past, which includes rumors of secret underground tunnels, hidden chambers, and even a fabled treasure. The team becomes even more determined to uncover the truth about the phantom woman in the window after hearing stories of her being spotted by guests over several visits to the Mansion.
The Ghost Hunters embark on a thorough investigation, using a variety of equipment, including thermal imaging cameras, EVP recorders, and laser grids. The team starts with a scan of the third-floor window, where the lady is rumored to have been seen. They also take a tour of the mansion and make note of areas with high EMF (electromagnetic field) readings and other anomalies.
The investigation continues throughout the night, with the Ghost Hunters team splitting up into smaller groups to cover more ground. The goal is to capture as much evidence as possible and to use that evidence to either validate or debunk the reported sightings.
As the hours pass, the team begins to capture some intriguing evidence, including a loud metallic sound and unexplained hot spots. As they continue to investigate, the team begins to feel a much heavier presence in the building than earlier in the night. They also start experiencing strange sensations and hearing strange noises.
One of the most compelling pieces of evidence is captured by Grant and Daryl, who come face-to-face with the phantom woman in the window. The team captures an apparition that appears to be a woman, who is looking out the window, wearing an old-fashioned dress. The footage is analyzed closely to determine its authenticity, and scientists are brought in to thoroughly examine it.
The Ghost Hunters' investigation of The Lady In The Window concludes with strong evidence of paranormal activity that confirms the legends of the haunted Morris-Jumel Mansion. However, there are no definitive answers about the lady in the window's true identity or what she wants, but the team's findings are disturbing, leaving them to believe the mansion may never be entirely free from the spirits that dwell within its walls.
