Events

Season 2

In the episode Gaslight, Jason emits an infrasound frequency while in a coma, which causes the team to hallucinate, including references to and visions of drowning, the cause of his coma. Rosen and Gary find Jason and use a cocktail of drugs to wake him, stopping the infrasound projection.

In the episode Gods and Monsters, Jason, used his ability to control the students in his high school.

Powers and Abilities

Jason generates infrasound waves, sonic energy below the normal frequency of human hearing (20hZ). Infrasound is the reason animals get agitated before an earthquake, and recent research shows that it may have a connection to human hallucinations, akin to a haunting. The brain perceives the vibrations, but being unable to interpret it as audible sound, it may reinterpret the energy as visual or auditory stimuli. Dr. Rosen theorizes that the alpha brain is much more sensitive to infrasound.

Whether Jason is able to control the infrasound or even the kinds of hallucination it creates is unclear. He is able to subconsciously (and possibly consciously) imbed subliminal commands in the infrasound signals. If Jason perceives that he is drowning, some of his targets may have hallucinations involving drowning. There seems to be no consistent pattern in who does or doesn't receive the specific command, however. Rachel and Adam literally drowned, Bill simply saw a message saying "I'm drowning," and Cameron and Gary had hallucinations with no relationship to drowning.
