2:21
Speaker 3: And because our things started happening with it, the notes
2:26
Speaker 3: and everything, and you know, of course there was a
2:31
Speaker 3: couple of movies about it, and uh, and Lorraine Warren
2:35
Speaker 3: ended up, you know, coming by and got possession of
2:40
Speaker 3: the doll, and you know the evil things behind it,
2:48
Speaker 3: you know, because of the death that she's caused and
2:51
Speaker 3: almost deaths, but this came across that. I guess, Uh,
3:00
Speaker 3: it's I guess Annabel was on a tour and right,
3:08
Speaker 3: but you know she went to Pennsylvania. She went to
3:12
Speaker 3: at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. And give her take if you think
3:19
Speaker 3: it's you know, she had something to do with this
3:23
Speaker 3: or not, It choice is yours. But it's kind of
3:28
Speaker 3: funny that, you know, when you end up handling her
3:33
Speaker 3: or whatever that you know, something might have you know,
3:39
Speaker 3: hit it. But the guy name of Don Riviera, well,
3:47
Speaker 3: he died on July thirteenth, one day after an event
3:51
Speaker 3: featuring the famous doll. Don Dan Riveria was a professional
4:00
Speaker 3: normal investigator who served in the US Army. I didn't
4:04
Speaker 3: expectedly soon after showcasing the Annabel doll, which enthusiasts believed
4:11
Speaker 3: to be democraally possessed. Police have said that there was
4:16
Speaker 3: nothing unusual or specially suspicious president at the scene. Wonder
4:25
Speaker 3: where the you know, I wonder where the doll was
4:29
Speaker 3: at this time, but statement on Thursday, September fourth, Adams
4:34
Speaker 3: County Corner said the cause of death was cardiac related.
4:40
Speaker 3: Cause of death would have been determined of the paranormal
4:44
Speaker 3: investigator whose body was found in July after event in Gettysburg,
4:49
Speaker 3: Pennsylvania showing case in the famous doll Annabel. Annabelle Henry Rieira,
4:57

Speaker 3: based New England Society for the Psychic Research, died July thirteenth,
5:10
Speaker 3: one day after the band with purpooredly haunted toy that
5:16
Speaker 3: long has been future in horror tales. Francis Ture, the
5:24
Speaker 3: Adams County Corner said the statement on Thursday, September fourth,
5:29
Speaker 3: that Riviera's cause of death was cardiac related. That rule
5:34
Speaker 3: was natural. Miss Reaver had known history of carrect issues
5:40
Speaker 3: which consisted with the fightings. Is also firm that annabel
5:45
Speaker 3: was not present in the room at the time of
5:48
Speaker 3: this passing. So she says, but you know, hearing the stories,
5:57
Speaker 3: she doesn't have to be present or to be seen,
6:02
Speaker 3: as in the case of you know, the biker that
6:07
Speaker 3: pretty much mocked her in the museum that the warrants
6:12
Speaker 3: told him, don't do it, and he did, and he
6:15
Speaker 3: scopped at her. And the last thing he knew before
6:18
Speaker 3: he died was seeing her, seeing her in the river
6:22
Speaker 3: mirror before he ended up hit a tree and died
6:26
Speaker 3: or the infamous uh car wreck that almost cost the
6:34
Speaker 3: life of one of the padre is one of the
6:39
Speaker 3: fathers of the Kinetic church. Uh h he uh. He
6:48
Speaker 3: ended up seeing Annabelle and and he sort of kind
6:54
Speaker 3: of scoffed at it, but I didn't think nothing of it.
6:58
Speaker 3: He ended up turned in as river mare and for
7:03
Speaker 3: a glance he saw the doll and looked back was gone,
7:07
Speaker 3: but by that time he had a tree. So oh no,
7:12
Speaker 3: I mean there's something that had to be there where animals.
7:17
Speaker 3: President may not be there, but the spirit might have
7:20
Speaker 3: been on. On July thirteenth, report Pennsylvania detailed conditions which
7:30
Speaker 3: were we ere fifty four was found. Members of the
7:35
Speaker 3: PCPSBERG responded to the hotel Stratton Township, Adams County or
7:44

7:49
Speaker 3: the hotel room by workers. The report said nothing unusual
7:54
Speaker 3: suspect suspicions was ever at the sea. Riviera had been
7:59
Speaker 3: calling of that morning or been with colleagues that morning
8:04
Speaker 3: and said he has felt sick. I was going back
8:07
Speaker 3: to his room. Radall recently told people although wasn't clear
8:12
Speaker 3: that whatever wherever, Era might have been sick with Tima's death.
8:18
Speaker 3: Rivera was in tour the Giddysburg Show with the Annabel Doll,
8:23
Speaker 3: which New England Society and Psychic Research I described as
8:28
Speaker 3: the monically possessed upon the Society's NFL's origin dates back
8:34
Speaker 3: in nineteen sixty eight when she was presented to a
8:40
Speaker 3: student and a student nurse as a gift. The nurse
8:44
Speaker 3: took the doll to her home where she lived with
8:48
Speaker 3: the roommate. Almost immediately, the roommates know it's a stranger
8:51
Speaker 3: Currence Doll, and they were introduced to a medium and
8:56
Speaker 3: told him the doll was embodied by his spirit of
9:00
Speaker 3: a young girl named Annabelle, hence the name. Psychic Research
9:04
Speaker 3: Society said two roommates tried to accept the dull spirit
9:09
Speaker 3: and because it's only had it Uh resisted only habit
9:16
Speaker 3: to recouplate was just mischievously and violent instance. Husband and wife.
9:26
Speaker 3: A team of Admiral Raine Warrenless, who found of a Society,

Speaker 3: later removed Annabel at the home history in the last
9:35
Speaker 3: case of class box to certain to certain the evil
9:40
Speaker 3: spirit into me to I'm sorry to contain spirit entity
9:47

9:52
Speaker 3: horror film a franchise, The Conquering Harrison and Jones journalists
9:58
Speaker 3: whoever handover Pennsylvania best based evenings. Son tended to tour
10:07
Speaker 3: one day before Raber's death, telling people out where Riviera
10:13
Speaker 3: definitely stuck me as kind of kind and very welcoming person,
10:22
Speaker 3: and my heart breaks for his family and colleagues. Joining
10:27
Speaker 3: a tour group Jones took photos at the footage of
10:33
Speaker 3: spoke with his visitors before he took them to see
10:37
Speaker 3: the doll history Riviera along with the others the N
10:43

Speaker 3: E s p R as Investigators, which stands for Northern
10:55
Speaker 3: England UH spirit Investigator Investigator or you know New England's
11:08
Speaker 3: spiritual paranormal research investigators. Wade Kirby spoke to the group
11:17
Speaker 3: about animal's history and their experiences working with a doll.
11:22
Speaker 3: Jones said. Among them these discussions, mister River spoke about
11:28
Speaker 3: how he had had built the case that Annabel was
11:33
Speaker 3: as himself and he had designed many aspects from the
11:40
Speaker 3: from the aspective of his faith. Jones said he didn't
11:46
Speaker 3: speak much of the Reviera, but that the paranormal investigator
11:50
Speaker 3: did ask me if I got if I had got
11:53
Speaker 3: what I needed out of my visit and asked him
11:57
Speaker 3: I had gotten good images during the tour and if
12:02
Speaker 3: you end up looking, I just I googled this was uh,
12:09
Speaker 3: you know, Annabel doll death and you see the picture
12:12
Speaker 3: the last picture of Riviera. You see the Annabel doll,
12:18
Speaker 3: you know right there and everything. You know, a lot
12:25
Speaker 3: of people you know, while Jones was working the story,
12:29
Speaker 3: he heard that the news of his death. It was
12:34
Speaker 3: clear that prior controversy surround of the tour that is,
12:37
Speaker 3: death would me on the cause intense controversy and becoming
12:42
Speaker 3: his own part of paranormal legend. No matter what what
12:45
Speaker 3: was said Jones told people about what about in my
12:52
Speaker 3: own record report, I mainly considered trying to focus on
12:57
Speaker 3: human life lost and the center of the track news.
13:02
Speaker 3: Mister Riviera had decades, so much time and that for
13:06
Speaker 3: sharing his love for the paranormal. But yeah, so either
13:14
Speaker 3: chucked that for another another one for Annabelle, or maybe
13:20
Speaker 3: you think it's just coincidence. Uh, leave that to you.
13:28
Speaker 3: To me, I think maybe ad Al Annabelle, maybe since
13:33
Speaker 3: he is the one that made it, got a little
13:39
Speaker 3: seek to revenge and finally got to him. Of course
13:45
Speaker 3: that's my opinion. I could be wrong. And the second news,
13:52
Speaker 3: uh starting this weekend was the last last chapter in
13:59
Speaker 3: the Conjuring universe, the last the last film, The Conjuring
14:08
Speaker 3: Last Rites. I can't wait to see this. It's pretty
14:17
Speaker 3: much the It's a story basically of Ed Lorraine's last
14:23
Speaker 3: case that they end up doing. It's it was they
14:28
Speaker 3: took on a small case family. Uh, it came to
14:35
Speaker 3: you know, starting there, you know, basically their retirement and
14:44
Speaker 3: you know, we you know, we love the conjurary movies. Uh,
14:48
Speaker 3: the conjuring itself out the the house and then the
14:54
Speaker 3: two about you know, the house in England, and U
15:00
Speaker 3: this one. I think this one is gonna be pretty good.
15:04
Speaker 3: It's in theaters on well, it's Peters Friday and it's
15:11
Speaker 3: basically this small family alleged haunting occurred in West Penton,
15:17
Speaker 3: Pennsylvania during the nineteen eighties, Although there was plenty of
15:22
Speaker 3: skepticism over what actually played. The Snarl home and Lorraine
15:28
Speaker 3: contributed the family's claims from the level presence at the
15:34
Speaker 3: end of the investigation, you know, pretty much at the
15:43
Speaker 3: center of this. The last one's called conjured, the conjuring,
15:48
Speaker 3: the last rites. The Stor family moved into the house
15:52
Speaker 3: after a hurricane before any alleged encounters, hoping we're the
15:59
Speaker 3: heading for any other alleged encounters with the supernatural. The
16:05
Speaker 3: Smorrel family most first had to contend with natural disaster.
16:15
Speaker 3: In nineteen seventy two, the remnants of Hurricane Agnes ravaged
16:22
Speaker 3: northern Pennsylvania eventually and downgraded to a tropical storm. The
16:30
Speaker 3: system dump between ten and eighteen inches of rain and
16:34
Speaker 3: a span of three days, leading to the Saskatchewan River
16:40
Speaker 3: to press forty one feet. Multiple communities experienced the severe flooding,
16:49
Speaker 3: leaving an estimated of two point eight million dollars in
16:54
Speaker 3: damage before the adjustments. Before the adjustments for inflation in
17:03
Speaker 3: nineteen seventy three, there's police to their residents their residence are.
17:10
Speaker 3: In nineteen seventy three, the police from the residents and
17:14
Speaker 3: well for Jack and Janet Smorrell relocated their families into
17:21
Speaker 3: a double block home on three point thirty Chase Street
17:25
Speaker 3: and West Pedson Snarls and their four daughters, Don, Heather, Carrion,
17:34
Speaker 3: and Shannon lived on one side and the Jack's parents,
17:39
Speaker 3: John and Mary occupied the other hand. Little do they
17:44
Speaker 3: know that the new house came with its own set
17:48
Speaker 3: of pazards. According to the film Predict and Lochewan College
17:55
Speaker 3: professor Brian Fence, Silly quickly experienced minor unexplained instance, which
18:07
Speaker 3: was the doors opening, closing and Foilett's fletching on their
18:10
Speaker 3: own at their new home. But years passed and inexpendable
18:16
Speaker 3: episodes escalated into something much much dark. By nineteen eighty six,
18:24
Speaker 3: the family went to public with the claims of paranormal
18:29
Speaker 3: entities and terrorized the house. Per The Times, leader Jack
18:35
Speaker 3: had said sexually. Jack had said he was been sexually
18:40
Speaker 3: assaulted by a demon multiple occasions, and that a spirit
18:45
Speaker 3: had thrown one of the children down the flight of
18:48
Speaker 3: stairs and their dog against the wall. The family claims
18:52
Speaker 3: to hear blood curling screens and animals grounds, as also
18:58
Speaker 3: smell horrible stenches and say the residents. Snarles listed the
19:04
Speaker 3: help of Connecticut priests performing exorcism, but the fair worst
19:12
Speaker 3: name a worse name was never shared publicly. Uh concluded
19:20
Speaker 3: these three steps were unsuccessful. Not surprisingly, some resperts who
19:27
Speaker 3: heard about the snort Distance were skeptical, called cruits. A
19:33
Speaker 3: chairman of the Committee of the Scientific Investigation of Claims
19:37
Speaker 3: of the Paranormal called their claims a hoax, a chrard,
19:43
Speaker 3: or a ghost story. He even suggests a family undergo
19:49
Speaker 3: psychatric and physiological elevate our evaluations. However, the Snarls had
19:59
Speaker 3: two notable believers in their corner. That was Ed and
20:03
Speaker 3: Lorraine Warner, who began investing in their house in January
20:08
Speaker 3: nineteen eighty six. Speaking to report, Ed said Phil the
20:13
Speaker 3: tempt to drop at least thirty degrees during the first night,
20:18
Speaker 3: said the home saw formation of a black mass. He
20:23
Speaker 3: also claimed the witness was a flamed to witness and
20:31
Speaker 3: mattress jumping on its own and objects flame off the
20:37
Speaker 3: of a burrow. Ed was convinced that in some kind
20:43
Speaker 3: of ghost, the devil or demon or whatever you call it,
20:47
Speaker 3: and said Snarholme. According to the Times Tribune and Lorraine
20:54
Speaker 3: Unmanly determined the Snows were haunted by four elevenant spirits
21:00
Speaker 3: and one viole inspector. We're dealing with an intelligence here.
21:06
Speaker 3: It's powerful, it's intelligible and very dangerous.
21:11
Speaker 4: Ed More.
21:13
Speaker 3: The alleged Snorl haunting gained the national news attention and
21:19
Speaker 3: Nathli McCain as many as ninety reporters again showing up
21:24
Speaker 3: to their residents and on any given day, the house
21:29
Speaker 3: being attracted as celebrity with ties to the paranormal actress
21:34
Speaker 3: and playwright Justin Miller and native of a Sketchwann, Pennsylvania.
21:41
Speaker 3: I'm sorry nearby Stratton, Pennsylvania. I said that wrong? Who
21:49
Speaker 3: played the father demon? Foller Damien curt occur as in
21:55
Speaker 3: the nineteen seventy three movie That Patient of the Exercise
22:00
Speaker 3: This visit the Hall. Although Miller didn't fully believe in
22:05
Speaker 3: the Charles claim of DeMont content, Bennelly writes the he
22:11
Speaker 3: did express concern that the investation would hurt the family. Eventually,
22:19
Speaker 3: Charles grew tired of all the intention demand and reporters
22:23
Speaker 3: to go to their house and December nineteen eighty six, however,
22:27
Speaker 3: the case was back on the limelight with the release

22:52
Speaker 3: adapted to the TV movie starring Jeffrey Demand and Sally Kirkman
23:00
Speaker 3: as Jack and Jance Snarrel, respectively. It was easy to
23:07
Speaker 3: believe what happened in wes Penton, They're Haunted is the Haunted.
23:12
Speaker 3: The Haunted is going to make it very personal for
23:17
Speaker 3: the audience's Curtains said, for our preciation is not a

Speaker 3: time were only transportable, and Taylor's was one of those
31:18
Speaker 3: largest in the area. He ran his own custom mill
31:24
Speaker 3: and his income formed from the base of what he
31:30
Speaker 3: could become a mass map of vast fortune in addition
31:35
Speaker 3: of those million industries. Taylor also known in the area
31:42
Speaker 3: as a patriot. During the eighteen sixty four Indian Scare
31:48

32:38
Speaker 3: also furnish many of the houses ridden by the men.
32:44
Speaker 3: Care is also credited with the construction of the Boulder
32:48
Speaker 3: Canyons first coal road Lincoln Boulder to its mining communities
32:55
Speaker 3: of the Central City and Bakhar. This is a major
32:59
Speaker 3: under taking him. The gerographic geography generography at Geographic and
33:12
Speaker 3: the Canyon Tolls were collected two stations and one on
33:20
Speaker 3: one onnother end of the road. One dollar to charge
33:24
Speaker 3: for each wagon and train, seventy five cents for carriages,
33:30
Speaker 3: and no toll was collected of chowder around the road
33:35
Speaker 3: to attend funeral or turch service. In eighteen seventy two,
33:40
Speaker 3: the family settled in Bowler. Captain Taylor quickly established himself
33:46
Speaker 3: for well represented. He has connections with the brewery winter
33:53
Speaker 3: Night and on connections with the University of Colorado are legendary.
34:00
Speaker 3: Local historians say that a blustery winter night in January
34:05
Speaker 3: eighteen seventy five, worry writer approached the Taylor home. Their
34:12
Speaker 3: honorable DH Nicklas had come home from me with the
34:17
Speaker 3: territorial legislator and most urgent business. Several collad towns were
34:25
Speaker 3: being considered for the establishment of the public interests of
34:30
Speaker 3: Taylor would be considered as public interests. Taylor would be
34:37
Speaker 3: promised to promised to individual funds of fifteen thousand dollars
34:45
Speaker 3: an institution of higher learning. It would be would be
34:50
Speaker 3: warded to Older Taylor pledged to support give the writer
34:57
Speaker 3: that would be a reward, give the writer a fresh
35:01
Speaker 3: horse and sent him on his way, and the rest
35:05
Speaker 3: would say it's history. The main campus of his main
35:10
Speaker 3: campus of the university was founded five months was founded
35:17
Speaker 3: five months before Colorado was minted in the Union in
35:21
Speaker 3: eighteen seventy six. In eighteen eighty four, tether disappointed Armsteak.
35:29
Speaker 3: In eighteen eighty four, Tyler was appointed as a regilent
35:36
Speaker 3: Regiment of the University of Colorado. His family, which has
35:40
Speaker 3: grown to include five sons and three daughters, continuous ties
35:46
Speaker 3: to the university. His daughter Ella was the first woman
35:51
Speaker 3: to graduate from the school in eighteen eighty six. Her husband,
35:57
Speaker 3: prominent Boulder lawyer Richard, was the school's first graduating class
36:03
Speaker 3: in eighteen eighty two. Considering that of only six men,
36:09
Speaker 3: Taylor's son, Bert, was also a student at the university,
36:13
Speaker 3: tragically died of meningitis at the age of twenty one.
36:20
Speaker 3: Captain Taylor a sight of astride his Big Bay guilding,
36:27
Speaker 3: his familiar site and Boulder and surrounding towns. He was
36:32
Speaker 3: frequently away for days on end until his family waited
36:37
Speaker 3: for his safe return. In those dangerous early days in
36:42
Speaker 3: Colorado towns, houses were often built with an Indian tunnel,
36:48
Speaker 3: a long underground tunnel leading into the outer structure that
36:54
Speaker 3: would allow the families to escape in the case of
37:01
Speaker 3: event of an Indian attack. Taylor's groundhouse Grand House was
37:09
Speaker 3: no exception. The entrance to the tunnel still located in
37:14
Speaker 3: the cellar of the hall, but it was never been
37:18
Speaker 3: explored by Catherine or her family whether it had hidden,
37:23
Speaker 3: whether he had hidden his great horse off, whether he
37:29
Speaker 3: had ridden his gray horse off to attended as many
37:33
Speaker 3: businesses adventures, or led the Indian Wars in late eighteen hundreds.
37:41
Speaker 3: It is though that these the house today is still
37:44
Speaker 3: waiting for the Taylor's return. The spirit of a woman
37:49
Speaker 3: a report as possibly his wife. It's on top of
37:53
Speaker 3: the main staircase. She is one of the most prevalent
37:57
Speaker 3: energies in the hall and and has often felt her
38:01
Speaker 3: kind friendly presence, whether it's a change of air temperature occurrents.
38:08
Speaker 3: Catherine's Catherine since is an almost a maturing feeling that
38:16
Speaker 3: scenes at times come out of nowhere. Psychic Christa so
38:25
Speaker 3: So Cash visited the home before the night of the
38:29
Speaker 3: historic Older Spirit Tour to do an impression of the house.
38:36
Speaker 3: She felt she went through the fior knowledge of the
38:42
Speaker 3: history of what Catherine had been since then she felt
38:46
Speaker 3: it too Then the woman in the stairs. She was
38:50
Speaker 3: very happy that Catherine owns us all. Christa said, she's
38:57
Speaker 3: very pleased that that Catherine is here Emily upon Immediately
39:02
Speaker 3: upon entering the house, Christina Crista, I turned around towards
39:09
Speaker 3: the front of the door which she said entered the
39:13
Speaker 3: saw an apparition of a big bay horse standing back
39:18
Speaker 3: at her through the screen. I felt every strong presence
39:23
Speaker 3: of the big horse that seemed very loyal to its owner.
39:28
Speaker 3: Upon hearing this, Catherine was eager for a Christa to
39:36
Speaker 3: be historic picture of the hall. Framed and hanging on
39:41
Speaker 3: the kitchen. There was an old photograph of the house
39:45
Speaker 3: thoroughly depict in three of the family's horses standing outside
39:50
Speaker 3: the near the front door. Those must be the horses
39:53
Speaker 3: you're seeing, Catherine asked, pointing to the photograph, but Christa
39:58
Speaker 3: pointed the other horse and photo a large base standing
40:04
Speaker 3: there right said the others. Catherine was surprised. I had
40:08
Speaker 3: lived in this house that photo on the wall for
40:12
Speaker 3: twelve years, she said, and I had never seen a
40:15
Speaker 3: horse in that photograph. Christina's visit brought more cozens to
40:23
Speaker 3: light that Katherine had long suspected inhabited at the home.
40:30
Speaker 4: The energies of the two girls playing in the upstairs
40:36
Speaker 4: hallway were prevalent, to say, perhaps the spirits of the
40:40
Speaker 4: Taylors daughters.
40:42
Speaker 3: During the story building spirit tour, Catherine and Christina had
40:49
Speaker 3: a young boy. Or said that the young boy appeared
40:55
Speaker 3: pulling away from his parents and wandered up the stairs
41:00
Speaker 3: in the middle of Betina's a discussion. But home the
41:05
Speaker 3: boy had seen playing in the upstairs hallway. He had
41:10
Speaker 3: actually seen the spirits, as many young children can. Bettina
41:16
Speaker 3: also drawn to one particular room in the home, from
41:22
Speaker 3: which several strong businesses maintain what is now an extra
41:29
Speaker 3: upstairs bedroom, So Britina like has been used for the
41:34
Speaker 3: healing room, or a room where sick people were in
41:47
Speaker 3: the Taylor also or the Tyler family would have gone
41:51
Speaker 3: to recover. In those days, children and adults were often
41:56
Speaker 3: shared sleeping bards, seldom or people able to be relocated
42:03
Speaker 3: to converse with a to a hospital or when they
42:07
Speaker 3: were ill, or do they have luxury of taking medications
42:13
Speaker 3: for a speed recovery as they might today. Therefore, some
42:19
Speaker 3: of the homes in the area of the room were
42:22
Speaker 3: also where people ill people could be separated from the
42:26
Speaker 3: rest of the family to recuperate. Surprised by what Katrina
42:31
Speaker 3: and Katrina since Catherine motioned that ever since they had
42:38
Speaker 3: moved in, she and her husband always called out the
42:41
Speaker 3: healing room and slept and wherever they feel ill. They
42:46
Speaker 3: too had sensed the rooms therapeutic spirits. Britana Agristina also
42:54
Speaker 3: felt the energies of sick young boys in the room,
43:00
Speaker 3: well as older women that sat looking out of the
43:04
Speaker 3: lights of the boulder through the window. Said that the
43:08
Speaker 3: feeling of death is one to feel like a miscarriage
43:12
Speaker 3: has also prevented a prevailed in the room. When another
43:17
Speaker 3: psychic visits their home with Bettina, she revealed that the
43:23
Speaker 3: presence and another spirit, upon entering what is now the
43:27
Speaker 3: dining room, was merely pointed into the corner where a
43:32
Speaker 3: large marms sits I filled the energy of the unhappy
43:38
Speaker 3: African American man in that corner, I could see something
43:43
Speaker 3: happening to do with water and able to make sense
43:46
Speaker 3: of the feeling, he and he and Catherine I looked
43:52
Speaker 3: at the homes original blueprints. To their surprise, blueprints shown
43:57
Speaker 3: that there was a corner that had been once location
44:00
Speaker 3: in the scene in the original kitchen and interesting enough
44:10
Speaker 3: that the eighteen eighty five since his reported list, one
44:15
Speaker 3: of the household demoster, the domestic living at the home.
44:23
Speaker 3: In the spring of twenty thirteen was revisited Catherine an
44:29
Speaker 3: historic home. She had asked for to come home and
44:34
Speaker 3: come by again and bring Bettina because she felt as
44:39
Speaker 3: though it was the energy in the house had shifted
44:42
Speaker 3: or changed something she somewhat wanted to some insight. Immediately
44:49
Speaker 3: upon entering, as soon as she had greeted one another,
44:55
Speaker 3: Bettina moved to the circular stairway, looking down. I need
45:01
Speaker 3: to go to the basement. Basement needs attention. Catherine had
45:07
Speaker 3: set out tea in trees and then chatta for a
45:11
Speaker 3: while first, but we could tell it Utina is anxious
45:16
Speaker 3: to get downstairs. As we sat into the living room,
45:20
Speaker 3: Betina noted that the spirit of Missus Taylor seemed to
45:24
Speaker 3: be at peace, but all that still watched over the house.
45:30
Speaker 3: Spirit was conforming and soothing. Spoke spoke through Katina with
45:37
Speaker 3: the word support of the both me and for Catherine.
45:42
Speaker 3: She spoke to being impressed with us, wishing that we
45:47
Speaker 3: could have accomplished in her life as well. We had
45:53
Speaker 3: In hours, however, bond by the word. It was then
45:58
Speaker 3: that she can't, that she cannot. She had her as
46:02
Speaker 3: soon as sat down, and then having spoke through Katina,
46:07
Speaker 3: she left quickly as she appeared. We don't see her,
46:12
Speaker 3: but we've fought her, as Catherine always passed throughout the years.
46:20
Speaker 3: But the basement still beckoned. And down we went, visiting
46:25
Speaker 3: the basement with the dirt walls, narrow passageways, and as
46:31
Speaker 3: stepping back through time, little had changed down here since
46:37
Speaker 3: the teeler time, with the expiration of storage shells, with
46:45
Speaker 3: the exception of storage shells and heating and plumbing works
46:50
Speaker 3: at the same installation the Indian tunnel, long since cornered
46:57
Speaker 3: off by Catherine, seemed to call the Kritina and that
47:03
Speaker 3: where we first met. We went first stand there in
47:09
Speaker 3: the entrance, she felt so many memories from the fire years.
47:15
Speaker 3: Thoughts of the visions of the past were in her
47:19
Speaker 3: mind as she asked Catherine questions in a rapid fire
47:25
Speaker 3: style the old time movie, like an old time movie.
47:29
Speaker 3: Real all that the things that Kritina had said moved
47:35
Speaker 3: seemed historical basis of the house, So Catherine uh the position.
47:45
Speaker 3: The superstition was true. Things had indeed changed since last time.
47:52
Speaker 3: They visited this time that the energies seemed to be
48:00
Speaker 3: Tina and her famer to be a Flamer and warning Jilsonside.
48:05
Speaker 3: Perhaps the most intriguing part of the story was research
48:10
Speaker 3: that Katherine made herself was done research that may have
48:14
Speaker 3: held the key to the strong attraction she fills to
48:18
Speaker 3: her house. The actual geographical past that westward migration, and
48:27
Speaker 3: both of her grandmother's families and the family of the
48:30
Speaker 3: Clinton Taylor were very close down to the same town.
48:36
Speaker 3: In one instance, Katherine researched her family shows that her
48:41
Speaker 3: great I'm sorry I sold your grandmother on her father's
48:47
Speaker 3: side was a Taylor and and supportedly a distant relative
48:56
Speaker 3: that the tenth President of the United States, John Taylor.
49:00
Speaker 3: Her grandmother's family came from came from New York in
49:05
Speaker 3: New Hampshire, eventually settling in Clayton, Iowa. Being Clinton Taylor's
49:13
Speaker 3: family traveled from the East coast to Wisconsin, where the
49:18
Speaker 3: rest of Catherine's relatives lived and distant of the Clayton
49:23
Speaker 3: Taylor's family. Has she come full circle and known a
49:28
Speaker 3: home that unbelievable to her, once inhabited by her own relatives,
49:35
Speaker 3: the mother on the stairs seemed to think so. I
49:40
Speaker 3: think so sometimes maybe it's a premonition or to stay
49:54
Speaker 3: in a psychic ability that you you see a house
49:59
Speaker 3: that's some you you know, have puys about and come
50:03
Speaker 3: to find out that you, oh, you're tight in there somehow.
