  Speaker 1: It's often said that truth is stranger than fiction, and
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: in today's story, that's definitely the case. If this were
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: a work of fiction, I think that readers or viewers
• 0:10
  Speaker 1: wouldn't really engage with it. They would seem like the
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: author was trying too hard to make it scary and bizarre.
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: They would just feel like, yeah, too much. You know,
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: this is not relatable. Yeah, this is not relatable. But
• 0:25
  Speaker 1: it's true. And if you were to look it up online,
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: this story, you'd get dozens of resources confirming it's true.
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: All the legitimate media outlets and blogs and police reports.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: It would all show you that this really did happen.
• 0:39
  Speaker 1: But because it's so well documented, because it's so true,
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: the way it's presented if you look it up is
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: here's what happened. Here's the answer to the mystery. Because
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: it was a mystery, but it was solved. They start
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: with the solution and then they tell you what led
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: up to it. But what I'm gonna do is, I'm
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna tell this like a mystery. I'm gonna tell
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: you the strangeness first before I reveal what ultimately happened.
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: Because there is a solution and it's crazy and tragic,
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: because this story I'm gonna share with you today is
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: actually the prequel to a whole host of horrible things
• 1:16
  Speaker 1: that happened to a town before we get into today's story.
• 1:20

  Speaker 1: to four weekly uploads.
• 1:42
  Speaker 2: All right, let's get into today's story.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: In nineteen eighty six, Annie and Jessica Andrews, who are
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: teenage sisters, unfortunately lose their mother to cancer.
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: It was a relatively abrupt dat I caught.
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: The family by surprise, and so following her death, Annie
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: and Jessica lived full time with their father, Brian Andrews.
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: Now Brian worked a lot, but with the death of
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: his wife, he had to work even more to make
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: sure he was bringing home.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: Enough of an income to provide for his.
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: Two daughters, Annie and Jessica were hit very hard by
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: the loss of their mother. They were very close with her,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: and you know, with their father being gone so much,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: those two were left alone a lot at the house
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: and left alone with their thoughts and they missed their mom.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: And so one night, when Brian was out at work,
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: the girls decide to use a Wigi board and to
• 2:37
  Speaker 1: try to contact their mother. And they would even admit
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: that they didn't really expect anything to happen. They just
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: wanted some sort of connection to their mother, who they
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: missed terribly. So they went down in the basement that
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: got out the Wigi board and they have like a seance.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: They didn't really do much research into how to do
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: it or what to do. They basically just started, you know,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: kind of asking if their mother was here, could she
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: give them some sign. And so they have this kind
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: of Wiji board seance and you know, nothing comes a bit.
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: Brian is not home for this, their father is not home,
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: and it's just those two and after you know, a
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: couple of hours of doing this seance, they ultimately put
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: it away and in a way, it was kind of
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: a cathartic experience that they got to, you know, think
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: about their mom really intently and kind of think maybe
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: she could be with them right then. And in many ways,
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: the seance was a success because it made them feel
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: closer to their mom, even if it was just for
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: a moment and if it was artificial.
• 3:33
  Speaker 2: So they put the wigi board away.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: And the girls go upstairs and they're kind of having
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: a low key night and ultimately decide to go to bed.
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: Now their father has not come home yet, so just
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: the girls. They're used to this, this is how a
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: lot of nights went. And as they're laying in bed,
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: they both start hearing tapping sounds. Now they're in separate rooms,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: and they heard the same tapping sounds, and in fact,
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: Jessica would get up and come into Annie's room and.
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: Say, hey, do you do you hear the tapping sound
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: on the walls And He's like, yeah, I hear it too.
• 4:01
  Speaker 1: And they're listening and there's silence and they hear this
• 4:04
  Speaker 1: kind of like tapping sound in the walls.
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: They didn't know what it was. They'd never heard it before.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: And the girls, again, they missed their mother so terribly
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: and they were.
• 4:15
  Speaker 2: Basically hoping that it was their mom.
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: They knew it couldn't be, but they were hoping it was,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: and so they're like, it's mom. Mom's trying to get
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: in touch with us. She's making sounds to get in
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: touch with us. It's from the seance.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: It must have worked.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: And they start asking their mother questions like are you
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: here with us right now? And can you show yourself
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: to us?
• 4:34
  Speaker 2: And you know how you are you.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Looking after us, just like questions that you would imagine
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: people might ask if they thought, you know, the ghost
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: of a loved one was in the room with them.
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: And so it was scary, but it was also kind
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: of reassuring that you have, you know, what they believed
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: to be the spirit of their mother looking out for them.
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: And when their father finally came home that night, the
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: tapping at this point had stopped, and they rushed to
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: tell their father about the tow they heard and they
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: were they were happy about it.
• 5:03
  Speaker 2: They weren't scared about it. They were happy about it.
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: And you know, Brian, he's worked all day and he's
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: grieving the loss of his wife, and he thinks that
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: his daughters are making it up, especially because they told
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: him about the Ouiji board, and he's just thinking to himself,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: you know, they're they're grieving, they're struggling with the loss
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: of their mother.
• 5:23
  Speaker 2: They're grieving, and you know.
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: He felt really bad for them, and he even considered
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: that first night putting them into therapy, not because he
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: was upset with them or anything, but because he's like,
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: this is a manifestation of grief. But he ultimately said, look, guys,
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: just go back to bed. You know, I'm sure, I'm
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: sure she's looking out for us. Go to bed. You know,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: let's let's we'll talk about this tomorrow. So the girls
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: went back to their rooms. Brian didn't think much of it,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: you know, he was just thinking, should I should I
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: bring the girls to grief counseling something like that.
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: And everybody goes to bed.
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: Now, this tapping would persist for several days. The tapping
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: got so frequent that it actually started to disturbing the
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: girl's sleep, and every time they would yell to their
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: father to come in and check, the tapping would stop.
• 6:06
  Speaker 2: And so it was like kind of driving them crazy.
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: And then when they would all leave the house during
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: the day and the evening whenever anytime the house was empty,
• 6:14
  Speaker 1: and so they would come back to the house and
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: you know, things would be moved.
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: You know, furniture would be.
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: Moved slightly out of position, some of the silverware had
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: been moved around, just little things all over the house,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and you know, Annie and Jessica's father.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: Is quick to say, you know, guys, I know this
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: is you.
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I know you miss your mom and I know you
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: want this to be real that you want your mom
• 6:36
  Speaker 1: to be here with us right now, but she's not.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: And you got to stop this whole ghost thing. You
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: got to stop moving the furniture around this.
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: This is not healthy. You know.
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: If this continues, I am going to ask that you
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: guys start seeing a grief counselor. And the girls were
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: insistent that it was not them, and the fact that
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: their father didn't believe them and they knew it wasn't them,
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: it put them in a really bad spot because they
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: they felt totally alone, scared to be in their house
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: because now it didn't really feel like their mother. It
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: felt like something screwing with them, and that's not something
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: their mother would do. And so they're thinking that this
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: is like an evil ghost that they've unlocked through that
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: Ouiji Bord seance and it's now terrorizing them and there's
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: nothing they can do. Because their father doesn't believe them,
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: and it's just consistently happening, they don't know what to do.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: One evening in January of nineteen eighty seven, the girls
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: were together in the front room of their house and
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: they started hearing tapping sounds again.
• 7:32
  Speaker 2: And so they hear this tapping.
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: Sound, not coming from the walls, but coming from the basement,
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: and suddenly they feel, you know, some confidence, like they're
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: going to go down and confront this thing. Because their
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: father doesn't believe them, they don't know what to do,
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: so they're just gonna go face this thing head on.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: So they head right downstairs into the basement and there's nothing.
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: The tapping stops as soon as they're down there, and
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: they can't find anything. As they turned to go back upstairs,
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: feeling a little bit silly that they're going to go
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: fight this ghost, they noticed writing in red that says
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: come find me.
• 8:05
  Speaker 2: I'm in your closet. And they're horrified because.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: Now this is like confirmation that this thing is screwing
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: with them. It's not their mother, and it's now interacted
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: outside of just tapping, it's actually writing on the walls,
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: and so the girls run out of the house because
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: this feels like a threat. They felt threatened by everything
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: that was happening before, but it was almost like the
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: writing on the wall was a step over the line.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: This felt like a direct, intentional threat towards the girls,
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: kind of absolutely taunting them and scaring them.
• 8:40
  Speaker 2: So they run out of the house.
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: Their father was not there, he was working, and so
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: the girls ran next door to their neighbors and said,
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: you know, can we stay with you for a minute.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: Something weird's happening in our house. They began to get
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: into the weird writing on the walls, but didn't really
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: go into too much detail, and the neighbor said, we're
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: just gonna wait for your father to come home before
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: we do anything, and so the girls stay with the neighbor.
• 9:00
  Speaker 2: Brian comes home.
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: As soon as they see Brian pulling in the in
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: the driveway, they flag him down. He comes over the neighbors.
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: Neighbor pulls Brian aside and says, here's what happened. They
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: came over here. The girls are hysterical, and they tell
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: their dad that there's writing inside the house, and so Brian,
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: you know, his first reaction is this is.
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: Out of control. Now guys, you know this is this
• 9:20
  Speaker 2: is too much.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: He goes over though with them to the house and
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: he goes into the basement and he sees the writing
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: on the wall and his thought is like, now, you guys,
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: are you know, defacing our property to live out this
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: kind of fantasy. And so this for him was the
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: lion in the sand that they've now crossed. It's now
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: getting totally unhealthy, and he ordered them to go see
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: grief counseling, so that actually began. At this point, several
• 9:47
  Speaker 1: weeks would go by with no tapping, no anything, just
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: silence in the house. It was almost like whatever this
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: was had stopped. Then one night when Brian is working,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: laid into night once again and the girls are alone.
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: They're in the front room together and they're just sitting there.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: It's been nice having a couple of weeks without any
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: strangeness in the house. And they start hearing tapping from
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: somewhere else in the house and they get up. They
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: kind of creep their way over to where they think
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: they're hearing it, and it's coming from Annie's bedroom. When
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: they go into Annie's bedroom, written on the walls is
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: I'm back. Find me if you can just like the
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: last time they saw writing.
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: On the wall. They run out of the house. They
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: flee the house.
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: They go to the same neighbor's house and they say,
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: it happened again. Gotta believe me, it happened again. The
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: neighbor says, stay with me, we'll wave your father again.
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: Father comes home, same situation plays out. He gets flagged
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: over to the neighbor's house. The neighbor says, hey, they're
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: back again with the.
• 10:43
  Speaker 2: Riding on the wall.
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: And Brian's mad and he says to the girls, like
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: I put you in counseling. I'm telling you to stop
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: doing this, like this isn't okay, it's not healthy. And
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: he tells the girls and the neighbor to stay here.
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna go in that house and I'm gonna say
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: he's the house top to bottom to show you that
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: there's nothing to be afraid of in that house. And
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: so he goes back to his own house and when
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: he opens the door, the house is in total disarray.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: It's like someone had ransacked the house. And he's thinking
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: to himself, the girls didn't do this. Someone else did this,
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: And so now he's on edge and he walks through
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: the house. He's not hearing anything, and he goes up
• 11:25
  Speaker 1: to Annie's bedroom and he sees the writing on the wall,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: and then he looks he sees a man standing in
• 11:31
  Speaker 1: the closet wearing women's clothes which would turn out to
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: be his dead wife's clothes, wearing a wig, carrying a hatchet,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: and this man in a dress is staring at Brian,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: and Brian startled. The guy starts running out. Brian tries
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: to grapple and fight with him, but the man in
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: the dress manages to run past Brian out into the
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: rest of the house. Brian is like so caught off
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: guard because this guy's got a hatchet. He doesn't know
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: what he's gonna do. He starts chasing after him, but
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: the guy's gone. Brian's looking at his house, but finally
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: Brian just leaves the house because this guy's got a hatchet.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: He runs outside. He runs over to his neighbor's house
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: and he's like, call nine one one, there's somebody in
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: the house.
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: You make sure his girls are okay, stays with his neighbor,
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: calls the police.
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: The police go in and they look everywhere and they
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: can't find anything, and they say to Brian like, I'm
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: sure someone was here.
• 12:22
  Speaker 2: It's a very convincing story you've just told, but they're
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: not here now.
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: And unfortunately, all we can do is tell you you
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: probably should not be here right now until whoever this
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: was is caught, and you should stay with some relatives.
• 12:36
  Speaker 1: We'll watch the house, you know, we'll see if anybody
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: else comes back, but there's not much we can do.
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: And so, unfortunately, the girls and the father are left
• 12:46
  Speaker 1: with no answer to what was going on or who
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: this person was. And Brian's thinking to himself, like, how
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: did he get away? How did this guy in the
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: dress get away?
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: Like, how did that happen?
• 12:58
  Speaker 1: I mean, they're searching the neighborhoods wearing pretty distinctive outfit.
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: How did he get away?
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: And so for two weeks, Brian and his daughters stayed
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: with some family. But in those two weeks, no one
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: found out who this guy in the dress was. I mean,
• 13:13
  Speaker 1: Brian and the girls are traumatized. Brian feels like this
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: horrible father that I've left my girls alone in the
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: house over and over and over again, with some crazy
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: person with an axe in my house. I never believe them.
• 13:27
  Speaker 1: What could have happened to him, it would have been
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: my fault. And so it's a horrible time period. The
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: girls are traumatized because now they realized they'd been interacting
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: with some crazy person in a dress with an axe
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: in their walls, and it's just this horrible situation. But
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: after two weeks, it's.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: Tough living with another family member.
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: It's a tight place they're staying, and they decide, you
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: know what, at this point, whoever that guy was, he must.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: Have ran away.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: We got police watch in the house. Let's just go home.
• 13:56
  Speaker 1: Let's just go home. We'll clock everything up. We get
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: that's a security system. There's police watching the house. Let's
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: just go home.
• 14:03
  Speaker 2: And so they decide, okay, let's pack up and head home.
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: And so as Brian is driving up his street, he
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: looks at his house and he can see that there's
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: a light on in the second floor, and he's thinking
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: to himself, like, huh, I thought the police were just
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: watching it from the outside.
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: I'm just kind of patrolling the neighborhood. I didn't know
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: there'd be police inside my house.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: And as he's looking up at the window about to
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: pull into his driveway, he sees the guy in the
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: dress suddenly.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: Walk across the window. He sees in clear his day see.
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: He stops what he's doing and he calls the police.
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: Police are there, and second the house is surrounded. So
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: when the house surrounded, police finally go inside. Now, no
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: one's been inside the house since Brian and the girls left.
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: They locked it up and they were monitoring it. There
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: was no police inside the house. There's nobody inside the house, supposedly.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: The police when they open up the door and go inside,
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: the first thing they noticed is not only is all
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: the furniture flipped upside down and moved all over the place,
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: but there are pennies glued to the ceiling. All these
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: pennies glued to the ceiling. And there's red writing all
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: over the house on all the walls and weird places,
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: just writing, strange, cryptic writing. But they searched the house
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: and they don't find anything. But one of the officers
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: who was down in the basement at one point, noticed
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: that there was a little piece of wood covering up
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: what looked like a crawl space behind the washer and dryer,
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: and he found that he could very easily move aside
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: the washer and the dryer, and there was this board
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: that when he pulled it aside, it was the entrance
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: to a crawl space. In the crawl space, they find
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: that someone had kind of burrowed between all of the
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: insulation all around the house, into all the walls, and
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: there were these little peoples in all the different rooms
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: that whoever was in the crawl space could look into
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: any room at any given time. And as they're searching
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: this intricate crawl space that spanned the whole house, they
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: find Danny Laplant, who was this totally deranged teenager who
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: had briefly dated Annie. Annie had broken it off with him,
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: and so he had snuck into their house and had
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: been living in their walls listening to their conversations. Had
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: heard about Annie's mother passing away and had kind of
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: adopted this I'm going to pretend to be your dead
• 16:15
  Speaker 1: mother routine and had been writing in ketchup on the
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: walls and tapping it. He had watched them do the
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: seance and so he had all this stuff to work
• 16:23
  Speaker 1: with it to really spook them, and had been sneaking
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: out and moving furniture around the sneaking back into the
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: walls for months.
• 16:30
  Speaker 2: And that's not even the worst.
• 16:31
  Speaker 1: Of it Danny of a Plant after he was brought
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: out of the crawl space, was arrested and put into
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: a juvenile detention center, and then when he got out
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: of the detention center later in nineteen eighty seven, for
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: reasons that no one understands. I don't even think Danny understands,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: he broke into someone's house and murdered almost.
• 16:50
  Speaker 2: An entire family in cold blood.
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: I don't know about you guys, but the idea of
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: somebody living in my walls for two months doing anything horrifying,
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: let alone being Danny Laplant, the psychopath that he was.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: But what really trips me out is when the police
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: went in in that second turn, when they had the
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: house surrounded, and they find pennies glued to the ceiling
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: and writing on the wall, and then they find him
• 17:18
  Speaker 1: in this intricate crawl space, like that's straight out of
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: a horror movie. That wouldn't be scary because it's just
• 17:25
  Speaker 1: too many weird elements, but it happened. And I just
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: think about the trauma that the Andrews family undoubtedly has suffered,
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: not only the loss of their wife, their their mother,
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: but imagining what could have happened to them because Danny
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: would go on to murder almost an entire family and
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: just as easily could have been them, and so I
• 17:46
  Speaker 1: would imagine it's I'd be shocked if they ever got
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: over it. That's a deep seated trauma that you know,
• 17:52
  Speaker 1: I can only hope that.
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: They were able to recover from.
• 17:55
