[Dated March 15th]

[The video is of a young Asian man sitting at a desk with a white wall background. He's sat nothing up yet, really. Just a blank wall and a short video to start.]

Hi. My name is Ben Hargreeves and this is my video blog. Something I learned about since I arrived here in this place. A little about me? Well, I died. I died a long while ago and I've been stuck as a ghost haunting my brother for about twelve years now.

It's hard being a ghost to one person, but I stuck around for him. There was a lot of the time that I was frustrated, not only at my brother but at my situation. As a ghost I couldn't touch anything. Couldn't interact. Couldn't go anywhere I wanted. Couldn't do anything interesting. Now that I'm alive? Well, that's going to change.

This video blog is going to be made in order to chronicle as much as I possibly can. Not really for anyone but me, though you are all welcome to join my adventures and watch them as I go.

[He smiles at the video and leans in.] So, Ben Hargreeves, it's time to get down to business. There is a lot you want to do and all the time in the world to do it. Reporting back soon with more to come.

[In PJs and messy hair...]

Okay! I've got some video editing software now, and I've figured out a bit of it. I know my blog thing isn't too exciting just yet, but like I said, it's for me. Like a video diary, so, self, suck it up. It's going to take a bit.

Hung out with Five for a bit. Did some things with Klaus, and now I am going to go check out a bar someone told me about. Be right back.

[the video turns off, then turns on again. Ben is now out of PJs and into a black hoodie and leather jacket, hair combed and standing outside of a club, in a line. He grins and pans down the line to a sign of the club, then back down the line.]

This better be worth it.

[It turns off again, then back on. Loud music bumping and the video bounces, turning to him again. Grinning as it pans out to the club and back to him again. Speaking loudly.]

This is GREAT! There's actually a live band playing, and everyone is so hyper that it's infectious! No one gives a damn if you can dance or not, so long as you're having a good time. Shit, I should have dragged Klaus along with me. Haha.

[He bounces in time with the music, lifts a squat glass of some drink, and winks at the camera before shutting it off.]

[Him sitting at a breakfast table in Jeopardy Number 4, eyes on the video are a bit blood shot. He video tapes himself shoving cereal into his mouth, chewing softly, staring at his device video, then sighing.]

I want to do so little today. Back to bed with me.

[the video goes off as he takes another bite of cereal. it comes on again later. He's outside in the Nevada sun, looking around.]

Okay, I rolled out of the house. This was a mistake. How does Klaus deal with this. Anyhow, there are some things I need to look into. Like ghosts. Leave comments if you know of any good places that are haunted here in Jeopardy. I'm going to test out my powers more.

That's all.

[The video is at night, with the neon signs of Jeopardy glowing here and there as he walked down a empty side walk.]

It's nearly one am. I couldn't sleep, and this city doesn't sleep either, from the signs of it. So I was out on a walk and something darted by me and fizzled. I headed around the corner and saw it.

[He pans the camera around the edge of a building and walks that way. A yellow sign says Spellman Mortuary. There is a building beyond it that he pans in on, then scans over to a grave yard]

I swear to you this wasn't here the other day. I came down this way before and it just wasn't here. I took some pictures of the area earlier. Graffiti and all. But this wasn't here.

The point I am making here? I'm either going crazy or this just appeared out of nowhere. I want to go in and check it out. First... some research.

[Video of Klaus shows up this time. The other is walking slowly through the graveyard of the Spellman Mortuary. Ben pans around a bit to take it all in, then turns the video on him. Speaking softly.]

Okay, so Klaus and I are at the Mortuary now. Time to look into things. I was mostly going to stick to the graveyard, but Klaus seems agitated. I get it, I do. He doesn't want to be here. I didn't want him to be here either, but he insisted.

So, I'm going to sit the camera down in a bit and try Ghosting to see if I can see anything around here. Talk to someone or something. You know, make contact like Klaus can, but in my own ghosty way.

It feels weird talking about it like a power and not a way of life though. Anyhow, I think--What? [he pauses as Klaus calls out to him. The video dips a bit catching the corner of a gravestone. He then lifts it again to his face.]

Okay, looks like Klaus found a key. We're going inside. More on that soon. [He started to jog over to the house and the video turns off.]

[Seated at his desk, there is a large wall flag behind him now, with a sun and moons and just decorative. Nothing too elaborate or fancy, but it's dark and much better than that stark white wall. There are those weird letters tacked to the wall too, that simply reads "B.E.N." painted in white.]

[He leans back in his chair and stifles a yawn.]

Okay, so it's been a bit. The footage I took of the Spellman house has been respectfully kept in my private stash of videos, not for myself but the person who once lived there. I wont explain here, but for the most part, it was just interesting to look through. Met a couple of interesting folks. Again, wont say much. See? I'm being respectful.

So, I might see about releasing more later, but for now, just know it was interesting but not at all what I was hoping for.
