What up
Rebecca Smith:this is very hard to do because I'm wearing a hat so I have my glasses on and I know its the chair, its not my fault
Angeline Compau:squeak, you make noises just like Josh now
Rebecca Smith:its like Halloween, unnecessary noise. He pulled to you today. I was in here we're in the living room working and he came in and he's like I have to go to the bathroom like and go. So he goes in there and I was watching a movie, and it was all loud. And then all of a sudden it got quiet. I hear him go I don't like it when you when you pause it when I'm pooping. I said, I didn't pause it to hear you poop. Who would do that?
Angeline Compau:No, who would do that?
Rebecca Smith:Who would do that? No, the movie just got quiet and he's like, Okay.
Angeline Compau:Oh my god. I am nervous poker.
Rebecca Smith:I know. That's why I thought of you
Angeline Compau:That is me and bathrooms echo and stuff like people need to put more stuff in their bathrooms or whatever their sound
Rebecca Smith:To absorb sound?
Angeline Compau:. Yes, they need sound absorption. I hate that bathrooms are too echoey
Rebecca Smith:Oh my gosh. So, Josh texted you that he wanted you to bring him a coke.
Angeline Compau:Apparently that's what it meant. I, it says can you put BK me up a couple coke. And I was like, huh? I don't know what that means.
Rebecca Smith:Oh my gosh, that's awesome. So, what's up? What's new? What's shakin.
Angeline Compau:Yesterday was homecoming for the children.
Rebecca Smith:Yes, it was.
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:I saw the pictures.
Angeline Compau:It was so cute.
Rebecca Smith:So okay, so what was the sequence of events you went where?
Angeline Compau:Oh, shoot, so I got up. I went to pick up Reese she had a nail appointment at 11
Rebecca Smith:Yeah
Angeline Compau:picked her up. Got her nails done.
Rebecca Smith:She looks so much like you by the way.
Angeline Compau:I know. But okay, yeah. I'll get back to that. Got her nails done. I had originally planned on taking her to get her makeup done, because usually you can go to like the makeup counters, but because of COVID you cannot and they're like we're not putting on makeup. We're not doing that. And I'm like, Are you kidding me? They don't want to dirty brushes or whatever the hell? I don't know. So I was like, well, crap, I'll just buy some makeup. And
Rebecca Smith:we'll do it
Angeline Compau:and we'll do it. And so we went to Sephora, and I bought some stuff for her that I was like you can use this even after?
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:so I'm like stacking up her little makeup pile.
Rebecca Smith:Oh that's cute.
Angeline Compau:I do her makeup. She looks fabulous, by the way.
Rebecca Smith:She did look good.
Angeline Compau:Yeah. But I think she washed it off when she got to her friend's house.
Rebecca Smith:Really?
Angeline Compau:I don't know if she did or not. Maybe she didn't maybe it wore off. I don't know. But they definitely fixed her
Rebecca Smith:It's the look Angeline. eyeliner up because I can't do those little wing things and I was trying not to make her look like too adult I think she's got like the cutest little porcelain skin. I don't want to make her look too grown up. So I was like I just did like very modest eyeliner and they just went dark liquid wings and I was okay. I mean I get it. I get it.
Angeline Compau:It is so anywho after that after I took her all out and stuff and she went to her friend's house I went to Rob and April's had to see Ryder and Jacqueline. Ella and Julian they took all their pictures and gave each other their little flowers. And I was like Oh, my god
Rebecca Smith:so you so then did they go to the Hickmott's?
Angeline Compau:Yes.
Rebecca Smith:Okay.
Angeline Compau:Yep. So then yeah, Ryder and Jacqueline. What's the Hickmott's? Ella and Julian went somewhere else also to take pictures.
Rebecca Smith:Okay,
Angeline Compau:like another friend's, like randomly. Reese was. Her friend group was taking pictures at the house like literally next door to Rob and April.
Rebecca Smith:Oh, yeah.
Angeline Compau:So we walked over there. We saw her take pictures with her friends. Nice. I was like, how handy was that?
Rebecca Smith:I know, right?
Angeline Compau:We just walked over. Oh my gosh.
Rebecca Smith:So then what do you do? After all, how long did that take?
Angeline Compau:Um, it took a while. The dance started at six. But I think everybody kind of went a little late. And
Rebecca Smith:yeah.
Angeline Compau:It was just a hot mess that I had to take my mom home? She was like, Okay, well, we're all just sitting around. Can we go now? And I was like, Oh my god, grandma geez. well we're not taking pictures anymore. And I'm like, oh my god.
Rebecca Smith:Wow.
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. And then Friday was the homecoming parade.
Angeline Compau:Oh, yeah. We went to that.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Got somestreet candy for the little girls that were at dance class.
Angeline Compau:Oh, yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Yes. Nobody showed up to my class, which is cool cuz I didn't want to...
Angeline Compau:So then we we took a trip to the pub.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. So we had a drink.
Angeline Compau:That was great. I needed that.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. We went to the pub Saturday, Josh and I and there was, we, we couldn't ge anybody to help us. It was so
Angeline Compau:was it packed?
Rebecca Smith:Well it wasn't that packed but I think because they're understaffed. It's a little chaotic.
Angeline Compau:Oh,
Rebecca Smith:so
Angeline Compau:where was your boyfriend?
Rebecca Smith:He doesn't work there anymore?
Angeline Compau:He quit. Why?
Rebecca Smith:I don't know, because he's not my boyfriend that's probably why I don't know.
Angeline Compau:Well, he has a huge crush on you.
Rebecca Smith:No, he doesn't.
Angeline Compau:Yes he does.
Rebecca Smith:He's mean to me.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, that's like what little boys do when they like girls?
Rebecca Smith:Well, he doesn't work there anymore. So
Angeline Compau:I don't know he quit.
Rebecca Smith:For somebody that has a crush on me. I never got free drinks or anything. I'm just kidding, I might have. I don't know.
Angeline Compau:Maybe you did. Yeah, we don't know.
Rebecca Smith:We don't know.
Angeline Compau:We don't know. Yeah. But so back to Reese. I forgot to
Rebecca Smith:Oh, sorry.
Angeline Compau:I forgot this part.
Rebecca Smith:circle back,
Angeline Compau:circling back. Well, because you you and Josh met my other brother the other day.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:but you've met him a bunch of times. But Josh really hasn't. We look more alike than Rob and I
Rebecca Smith:yes.
Angeline Compau:And so his daughter just looks Spitting Image kind of like me even as a baby like, her baby pictures. I was like, Whoa, she looks like me.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:so I always joke around I'm gonna take her
Rebecca Smith:Well. around and people will think that she's my kid. And I think
Angeline Compau:And like you likek you texted me You're like that's what happened the other day when we were like out shopping and I think people thought she was mine. I was like, cool, cuz I would have been 16 when I had her. she looks just like you. I said I could be her mother.
Rebecca Smith:You could be her mother.
Angeline Compau:I could.
Rebecca Smith:And 16 is not a first stretch because in our progressive little town here.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, that's true.
Rebecca Smith:On homecoming court. We had a girl that was seven months pregnant her and her boyfriend.
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:were nominated for homecoming king and queen.
Angeline Compau:Yes.
Rebecca Smith:So I don't know if that's super Hicksville country or if it's progressive
Angeline Compau:actually that seems very Orton tukey that seems like it Not that there's anything wrong with that
Rebecca Smith:I'm saying we're progressive
Angeline Compau:we are
Rebecca Smith:I'm saying we are a progressive town
Angeline Compau:we are
Rebecca Smith:who supports young families
Angeline Compau:I guess her boyfriend won, but she didn't
Rebecca Smith:yeah that's what I heard that that he I knew I thought because they were standing like when they announced it at halftime
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:they were standing like the guys were standing behind their girls and he won for King.
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:And so and they announced the king first which I think is kind of crappy because guys like Josh said, guys don't care they should announce the girl first and then let the guy go but the girls the bigger deal I think which is why they announced that last
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:but anywho so the guy wins so automatically the girls thinking cool I won too right, that's what I would think if I was in a couple with somebody and he won.
Angeline Compau:Well it's not like you vote for a couple you vote for King and you vote for Queen
Rebecca Smith:I know, but even still even still if my boyfriend won we were both nominated.
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:And my boyfriend won were associated together. I would like I wouldn't vote for two separate people. I don't know. I don't think I would would you?
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Oh man.
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:well, apparently that's why I'm in the minority. Because Yeah, the guy won and she didn't and then I think was it you that told me that she was super upset about it?
Angeline Compau:I heard she was I felt kind of bad. But at the same time, I was like, You can't be like a sore loser about it. Like crying in the bathroom. And then I was reminded that she's super pregnant and hormonal and I was like, Okay, okay, she gets a pass because she probably was super hormonal.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah.
Angeline Compau:Our biggest fan Michelle. She's the one that told me that she was like, she's like super hormonal and I was like, Oh, yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Michelle was so funny. She comes out. She's like curmudgeon! to Josh. You're the curmudgeon. I'm a curmudgeon, too.
Angeline Compau:Oh, she's my favorite. She's my favorite. You're my favorite. Michelle Greg Louganis,
Rebecca Smith:Greg Louganis, forever.
Angeline Compau:She said that she's not sick of a Greg Louganis stuff. And I said good
Rebecca Smith:Thank you Michelle
Angeline Compau:yes. Oh, yeah. Good. So we'll keep it up.
Rebecca Smith:unlike somebody that we know,
Angeline Compau:right
Rebecca Smith:So this is what's gonna go down. We're gonna record two episodes in one shot cuz I'm gonna be out of town.
Angeline Compau:Yes.
Rebecca Smith:So I know that I just threw that on you. So I'm not going to. Usually we alternate so I'm taking it both episodes with one topic.
Angeline Compau:I like it,
Rebecca Smith:because there's a lot of shit on this one
Angeline Compau:I like it,
Rebecca Smith:and you know what I did do research. I have a whole Google Doc thing written out. But I'm pretty much going to read off Wikipedia. And just some other stuff that I found.
Angeline Compau:I like it.
Rebecca Smith:Okay. So my topic this week is Ed and Lorraine Warren.
Angeline Compau:I love it.
Rebecca Smith:And you know who they are. Because if you watch the movies,
Angeline Compau:if you guys don't know who they are, watch The Conjuring and scare the piss out of yourself.
Rebecca Smith:Not just The Conjuring they have like, just listen to this. Okay,
Angeline Compau:okay.
Rebecca Smith:So okay, Ed and Lorraine Warren. They are paranormal investigators and authors and they're associated with like a bunch of prominent cases, not just for The Conjuring. We'll get into all of them, but this is what it says that Ed's a self taught self professed, demonologist author and lecturer.
Angeline Compau:Self taught no lessons!
Rebecca Smith:Self taught bitches!
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:And Lorraine professed to be a clairvoyant and a light trance medium who worked closely with her husband. So this duo goes out on all these paranormal investigations. She just died. She just died in 2019. She was 92
Angeline Compau:Oh, wow.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. So in 1952, they founded the New England society for psychic research the NESPR. So official,
Angeline Compau:Oh my goodness
Rebecca Smith:the oldest ghost hunting group in New England, they wrote a bunch of books they went on, they claim to have investigated over 10,000 cases during their career.
Angeline Compau:That sounds like a lot
Rebecca Smith:sounds like a made up number.
Angeline Compau:I was just gonna say a stretch, maybe?.
Rebecca Smith:They had an official website, the NESPR. They say that they use a variety of individuals, including medical doctors, researchers, police officers, nurses, college students, and members of the clergy, in all of their investigations. So basically, like anybody that is interested in like, paranormal or conspiracy theory type stuff would probably join up and be like, I'm a lawyer, but I'm also a ghost hunter kind of thing
Angeline Compau:Yeah
Rebecca Smith:I guess, I don't know. I don't know. So I think like this couple though, is like the most popular of paranormal investigators because I mean, all the movies that have been spawned from these people are, it's ridiculous
Angeline Compau:it is, the're so good
Rebecca Smith:but they do also have all of their skeptics as well. So then they opened up an occult Museum,
Angeline Compau:which I want to go to,
Rebecca Smith:it's closed,
Angeline Compau:but I want to go
Rebecca Smith:I know
Angeline Compau:let's break in.
Rebecca Smith:It's in Monroe, Connecticut. And it was in the back of their house, I believe.
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:I understand. So their son they were operating with the help of their son. I think it closed down because of COVID
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:and then I don't know if it's gonna be opened back up or anything but there have been like break ins and stuff like that people trying to get like a memorabilia, I guess.
Angeline Compau:Annabel
Rebecca Smith:they displayed claimed haunted objects and artifacts from around the world. Many of the artifacts from their most famous investigations are featured their Annabel which Annabel is not really like an Annabel it's a raggedy ann doll
Angeline Compau:which is even creepier like when I think about.
Rebecca Smith:Have you seen the pictures
Angeline Compau:Well, yes, because I went on a deep dive after I watched The Conjuring
Rebecca Smith:yeah
Angeline Compau:and Annabel I went on a deep Warren dive, because I was like this is crazy. But I was like why would you make the Annabel doll look like you did in the movies when the real one the raggedy ann is way creepier
Rebecca Smith:because my generation grew up on raggedy ann so I don't think of raggedy ann as being anything scary.
Angeline Compau:Oh, okay.
Rebecca Smith:raggedy ann and Andy were like, I had lunch boxes of raggedy ann, and
Angeline Compau:when I look at those those things are creepy as fuck
Rebecca Smith:stuffed animals and yeah, I know.
Angeline Compau:No, I cannot look at those. I'm like get, burn it. burn that shit. That's weird.
Rebecca Smith:See I think the Annabel doll looks much scarier than raggedy ann
Angeline Compau:I mean she doesn't look great I'll give you that but but I'm
Rebecca Smith:she looks a little rough
Angeline Compau:she Yeah, that's another thing she that's she just looks like she's been like,
Rebecca Smith:possessed by a demon.
Angeline Compau:No. in the sewers. Like she looks like she'd been in the trash.
Rebecca Smith:I think she was in the trash at one point, wasn't she?
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:I don't know. Okay, so notable investigation. So these are all of the things what are the most notable ones? Not all. 10,000. But
Angeline Compau:yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Okay, so Annabel, obviously, top of the list. According to the Warrens, the year 1968 two roommates claimed their Raggedy Ann doll was possessed by the spirit of a young girl named Annabel Higgins. The Warrens took the doll telling the roommates it was being manipulated by an inhuman presence and put it on display in their museum.
Angeline Compau:Okay, I believe it
Rebecca Smith:and that inspired several of the films conjuring Annabel, Anable 2, Annabel comes home all those whatever. Now then, I was looking at like Annabel Higgins like is that a real person? And I found a story on here. It's from the ghost hunt. uk.com So this says the true story of the Annabell doll a story that changed or ruined lives. So it says the earliest story can be traced of Annabel is in the early 70s when a girl named Donna who was a college student at the time, and then I don't know if this is true, or if they're just taking this for the movie. I mean, who knows?
Angeline Compau:Okay,
Rebecca Smith:nobody knows people.
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:she bought it. Okay, the doll was given to her as a gift from her mother, she bought it secondhand at a rundown old hobby store. The Annabel doll apart from being quite ugly, seemed at first to be nothing more than a normal doll until Donna's roommate Angie began to notice that the doll was moving around the apartment by itself. very slight movements.
Angeline Compau:No, thank you.
Rebecca Smith:But eventually, they would come home after leaving Annabel on the bed on the it says on the bedroom which doesn't make sense. on the bedroom and find her on a chair in the main room in short Annabella doll became fully mobile.
Angeline Compau:No thanks.
Rebecca Smith:But of course, both of them being women of logic they brushed it off. It wasn't until their friend Lou started coming over did the activity escalate. He hated the Annabel doll and was convinced there was something evil and unnatural about it. Then they began to find pieces of paper around the house with the words help us or help Lou written on them and it only got worse.
Angeline Compau:Oh god.
Rebecca Smith:One night Donna returned home to find a blood red liquid all over Annabel's hands. The liquid was oozing from the doll itself. So then they decided to call a medium. The medium spent time alone with Annabel the Annabel doll and proclaimed It was a seven year old girl named Annabel Higgins, who had been possessing the doll. Apparently she had been found dead in a field. She told the girls that the spirit of Annabel found them both trustworthy and wanted to stay. wanted to stay safe with them. This was not the true story of the Annabel doll. Okay, now with the medium she could have been making it up but demons have been known to mimic young children to gain the trust and access lives in the mind of those involved.
Angeline Compau:I was just thinking that because what seven year old does the weird things that that doll did? No, seven year old does that she like wants to watch TV and color and shit.
Rebecca Smith:So the girls taking pity on an Annabel doll gave permission for Annabel to stay with them. All thanks to the expert, dead person speaker. Okay, so then, Lou began to have vivid nightmares where Annabel would be in his bed, climbing up his legs as he was frozen and unable to move. Then slowly making her way up his chest and choking him to death. He would wake terrified, freezing and freaking out. At the same around the same time Lou and Angie and Donna were playing planning a road trip when they heard movement in Donna's room. Lou, being the man went to check. The noises were never ending and very loud. He threw open the door to find nothing changed apart from the fact that Annabel had moved from the bed to the corner of the room, where she sat staring directly at him.
Angeline Compau:Oh God, I hate it. hate it.
Rebecca Smith:He's been around after feeling someone behind him and then felt an intense burning pain on his back. He pulled off his shirt and was absolutely horrified to find three claw marks carved deep into his flesh. Annabel the doll had done this he knew it. They knew this was no little girl the feeling in the apartment since since the mediums visit was evil and unwelcoming.
Angeline Compau:Oh geez.
Rebecca Smith:So they called in father Darnell, who in turn called the legendary Ed and Lorraine Warren. It didn't take the Warrens long to call out the demon possessing the Annabel doll they told the girls the demon was simply manipulating the doll to get close to the girls and eventually take control of Donna.
Angeline Compau:Oh,
Rebecca Smith:so the priest performed an exorcism on the house and the Warrens took Annabel home to be locked away, and even stayed off the highway because he was concerned that the evil spirit might fuck with the car. Sure enough, the car cut out numerous times the power steering continuously failed, and even the brakes were giving him trouble. Ed stopped the car openly. Stop the car, open the bag and sprinkle the doll with holy water, which for a while, stopped the activity
Angeline Compau:good.
Rebecca Smith:Ed placed the doll on his desk and left it there. They would later report that it would levitate frequently. But after a while just seemed to quit and lay down probably something they weren't. They just weren't scared. But Annabel soon was more active in the Warrens house she began to appear in more parts of the house without anyone moving her. Ed decided to call a priest to perform another exorcism but the priests didn't take the doll seriously. You're just a doll. You can't hurt anyone. He shouted at Annabel on his way home. His brakes failed and his car totaled in a horrendous accident. Man, the priest survived but his injuries were lifelong. He called Lorraine later on and said the last thing he saw was the face of the doll in the rearview mirror.
Angeline Compau:Nope.
Rebecca Smith:Oh,
Angeline Compau:nope, nope nope,
Rebecca Smith:nope, nope, nope.
Angeline Compau:Nope.
Rebecca Smith:Annabel today remains locked away in a blessed case in the basement of the Warrens well, in their museum now. The science states do not open after the passing Ed and Lorraine lived alone but to not go down in the basement which is a makeshift haunted museum. Destroying the vessel would only release the entity and allow it to roam free and choose another vessel.
Angeline Compau:Oh, no.
Rebecca Smith:So then I was reading the night that the Annabel movie was released. She did like a gathering in some place in Connecticut
Angeline Compau:Lorraine.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:okay.
Rebecca Smith:And she was telling like this true story of that Annabel doll or whatever.
Angeline Compau:Oh, gosh. Oh, I can't look at it.
Rebecca Smith:And they were thing like yeah that that it's in the museum and there was one instance where a guy came into the museum and like totally was like oh whatever I don't believe this shit whatever
Angeline Compau:right
Rebecca Smith:and it's you know on the case that says do not touch and he was like
Angeline Compau:touching it
Rebecca Smith:touching the glass and stuff like that. And then they said shortly after he got kicked out of the museum and then got in a car accident and died
Angeline Compau:for real.
Rebecca Smith:That's what it says
Angeline Compau:You think that really happened though.
Rebecca Smith:I don't know.
Angeline Compau:I don't know either
Rebecca Smith:that was in. Where's that one, i have it here? It was in the like a Connecticut newspaper. That story.
Angeline Compau:Dang.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. Yeah. So Annabel?
Angeline Compau:Oh, I don't like her.
Rebecca Smith:Do you believe she's real?
Angeline Compau:I don't know.
Rebecca Smith:Do you believe in demons and all that stuff.
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Yep. I do.
Angeline Compau:I do.
Rebecca Smith:Okay, so the next one. The witch family 1971. The Warrens claim that the harrisville Rhode Island home of the Perron family was haunted by a witch who lived there in the early 19th century
Angeline Compau:Oh, this is the second movie.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:okay.
Rebecca Smith:According to the Warrens, Bathsheba Sherman caused cursed the land so that whoever lived there somehow died a terrible death. And this is the conjuring This is the first one.
Angeline Compau:Oh, that's the first one. Oh, okay.
Rebecca Smith:Lorraine Warren was a consultant to the production and appeared in a cameo role in the film. Yeah, so then I was looking at the witch family to see if I could find anything on that like a real thing. And so, at the end of that movie, they show pictures of all of the real family and everything.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, I don't like that.
Rebecca Smith:Why?
Angeline Compau:I don't like it. I don't like it when it's real.
Rebecca Smith:Why? I think it makes it so much better when it's real
Angeline Compau:creepy.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. So the real Perron family or Perron, I don't know how to say it lived in the farmhouse for approximately 10 years. Located in the small county of Harrisburg, Rhode Island, Roger Perrin and his wife Carolyn purchased the home in the winter of 1970. The 200 acre property offered plenty of space for them to raise their five daughters. They moved out in June of 1980. So yes, Lorraine Warren acted as a consultant on the movie to director James Wan and the filmmakers she even she even visited the Wilmington, North Carolina set, as well as some of the members of the Perron family themselves.
Angeline Compau:Oh,
Rebecca Smith:yeah, they've all put their support behind the film, having already come together to support their daughter Andrea's self published 2011 book. Excuse me about their experience titled House of darkness House of light
Angeline Compau:Oh
Rebecca Smith:I wanna read that.
Angeline Compau:Nope, not me.
Rebecca Smith:Why,
Angeline Compau:cuz, first of all, I love scary movies. But that was the first movie in a long time that I saw that I couldn't sleep after I watched it.
Rebecca Smith:Really?
Angeline Compau:I told you that after we watched it, I didn't I couldn't even go in my basement. So I don't want to read your book. No offense, but no thank you
Rebecca Smith:rude
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:so like Lorraine, various members of the Perron family who were friends with producer Tony derosa Grund also visited the set. Andrea as expected has been the most vocal of the group while her sister Christine has been the most reluctant to talk about her experiences in the house
Angeline Compau:Oh why,
Rebecca Smith:I don't know the most haunting spirit and maybe she was she the one that was the most affected I can't remember
Angeline Compau:that's what I was wondering to.
Rebecca Smith:Most haunting spirit in the movie is that of suspected which Bathsheba Sherman born Bathsheba Thayer in Rhode Island in 1812. She married fellow Rhode Islander Judson Sherman. One year her senior in Thompson, Connecticut. The two were married by Vernon Stiles, a local justice of the peace Bathsheba filled the role of housewife while her husband worked as a farmer on their land. fairly well off Bathsheba and Judson had a son Herbert, born when Bathsheba was 37 in March of 1849. It is possible they had three other children as well all of them did not survive past the age of seven.
Angeline Compau:Oh
Rebecca Smith:though, no census records can be found to confirm those reports the family usually took in a border most likely to help them on the farm. The only photograph that is service that could possibly include suspected which Bathsheba Sherman is pictured here.
Angeline Compau:Oh, did she hang herself.
Rebecca Smith:Well, that's what happened in the movie.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, I thought she really did.
Rebecca Smith:Okay, there's no hard evidence to support that. Bathsheba Sherman was really a witch, only legend in local folklore. Having lived on a neighboring farm in the 1800s suspicion grew when an infant mysteriously died in her care. When the baby was examined, it was determined that the mortal wound was caused by a large sewing needle that had been inpaled at the base of the child's skull
Angeline Compau:gross
Rebecca Smith:so the townspeople believe that Bathsheba sacrificed the infant as an offering to the devil, due to insufficient evidence, a court found that she was innocent of any wrongdoing. Despite her name being clear legally, the public was not convinced in her Book House of darkness House of light. Andrea Perrin describes her mother Carolyn talking to a man who she refers to as Mr. McEachern. Supposedly a bit of local historian Mr. McCarran told Carolyn that Bathsheba treated the help badly and that she starved and beat her Sherman farm staff.
Angeline Compau:Not Cool.
Rebecca Smith:Bathsheba died as an old woman on May 25 1885, roughly four years after her husband Judson Sherman's death in 1881, Bathsheba lived to see her son Herbert a farmer, like his father, marry his fiance Anna in 1881. various articles online will have you believe her body body literally turned to stone when she died, or that but Bathsheba died from a bizarre form of paralysis that puzzled and frightened doctors. Their basis is never more than legend in local folklore. And the same articles often state that Bathsheba had four children all of whom died before reaching the age of four. However, US government census records contradict this. Since we know that Bathsheba had a son Herbert Sherman, who lived a long life as a farmer, and had a family of his own. As for the three other children, we can only find an official record of their existence. So she did not hang herself.
Angeline Compau:Okay.
Rebecca Smith:Okay,
Angeline Compau:so we know that's not true. That's not cool.
Rebecca Smith:The family's connection to the spirit of Bathsheba Sherman came at the suggestion of paranormal investigators, Ed and Lorraine Warren, the mother, Carolyn told Ed and Lorraine about an incident that happened a few years earlier. She said that she had been lying on the sofa, and all of a sudden felt a piercing type of pain in her calf. And then the muscle began to spasm. Well I get that sometimes?
Angeline Compau:Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Upon examination,
Angeline Compau:it's called a charley horse.
Rebecca Smith:Upon examination, she noticed a puddle of blood. At the point of impact she checks she checked for the bees Oh to check for bees, or anything else that could have caused the puncture in her leg, but found nothing. In her daughter's book Andrea describes the wound is a perfectly concentric circle, as if a large sewing needle had impaled her skin. On her calf, though it wasn't on her... That's reaching. I feel like that's reaching.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, yep, yep, yep.
Rebecca Smith:So eight generations of one extended family lived and died in that house prior to our arrival, says Andrea Perron. Some of them never left. The Black Book of Burleigh Ville.

Rebecca Smith:Okay. Number three. The Warrens are best known for their involvement in this. I'm not going to tell you if you can guess it.
Angeline Compau:Okay.
Rebecca Smith:1975 New York couple George and Kathy Lutz.
Angeline Compau:Oh,
Rebecca Smith:that's gonna give it away.
Angeline Compau:Oh, I know. I know their names.
Rebecca Smith:What is it?
Angeline Compau:the Amityville Horror house.
Rebecca Smith:Yes, I know that just gave it away. Boo.
Angeline Compau:Sorry.
Rebecca Smith:New York couple George and Kathy Lutz claim that their house was haunted by a violent demonic presence so intense that it eventually drove them out of their home. Amityville Horror. The author the Amityville Horror conspiracy author Stephen and Roxanne Caplin characterized the case as a hoax. Ed and Lorraine Warren told a reporter for the Express Times newspaper that Amityville Horror was not a hoax. They reported haunting, was the basis for the 1977 book, The Amityville Horror, and adapted into the 1979 and 2000 films of the same name, and also serving as the inspiration for a film series that followed.
Angeline Compau:That's a scary one.
Rebecca Smith:The Warren's version of events is partially adapted and portrayed in the opening sequence of a conjuring 2.
Angeline Compau:Oh, yeah, yeah, yep.
Rebecca Smith:So did you see the Amityville Horror or read the book?
Angeline Compau:I saw the 2001.
Rebecca Smith:Okay. You didn't see the 79? I don't think so. With who was the guy. I can't think of the guy that's starred in it look it up.
Angeline Compau:I know in 2000 it was Ryan Reynolds.
Rebecca Smith:Yes, it was Ryan Reynolds. I want to say like, I want to say James Brolin. I wonder if I'm right.
Angeline Compau:It is!
Rebecca Smith:it is? Who was the girl?
Angeline Compau:James Brolin
Rebecca Smith:and who was the girl
Angeline Compau:and Margo Kidder
Rebecca Smith:Margot Kidder. Yeah.
Angeline Compau:Yeah. Good one,
Rebecca Smith:see. I know my 1979 horror movies
Angeline Compau:I think I'd like to see the older one.
Rebecca Smith:It's good. I thought the older one was better than the newer one.
Angeline Compau:Oh, it got better reviews on IMDb. So
Rebecca Smith:yeah,
Angeline Compau:yeah.
Rebecca Smith:According to Benjamin Redford, the story was refuted by eyewitnesses, investigations and forensic evidence. In 1979 lawyer William Webber stated that he, Jay Anson, and the occupants invented the horror story over many bottles of wine.
Angeline Compau:I believe that to be honest.
Rebecca Smith:Benjamin Radford was a it's like a famous skeptic of like he's out to debunk all these theories and stuff when I looked him up on Wikipedia.
Angeline Compau:healthy amount of skepticism is cool. I get it.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah, I don't know. Oh, yeah. So he so Jay Anson is the author of the book, but it says on the book on the right on the cover ammityville horror, a true story. So
Angeline Compau:well, the okay. The true part is about the murders that actually happened there. So I get that I get why they would think it was haunted but maybe it really wasn't. I don't know.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah. Okay. So there were claims of physical damage. Okay, so it says the role of father Peck Pecoraro in the story has been given considerable attention during the course of the lawsuit surrounding the case in the late 1970s father picaro stated in an affidavit that his only contact with the Lutz's concerning the matter had been my telephone. Other accounts say father Picaroro did visit the house but experienced nothing unusual there. The claims of physical damage to the lock doors and windows were rejected by Jim and Barbara Cormedy, who bought the house for $55,000 equivalent to $235,000 in 2020. In March of 1977 Barbara Cromedy argued that they appeared to be the original items and not been repaired. The cromedies also revealed that the Red Room was a small closet in the basement and would have been known to the previous owners of the house the Lutz's because it was not concealed in any way. The claim made in chapter 11 of the book that the house was built on a site where the local Shinnecock Indians had once abandoned, the mentally ill and dying was rejected by local Native American leaders. The claim of cloven hoof prints in the snow on January 1 1976, was rejected by researchers Rick Morin and Peter Jordan, whose investigation revealed that there had been no snowfall at that time. Neighbors reported nothing unusual during the time that the letters were living there. Police officers were depicted visiting the house in the book and 1979 film but records showed that the Lutz's did not call the police during the period that they were living on Ocean Avenue. There was no bar in Amityville called the witch's brew at the time. Well, that's just nitpicking.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, all right.
Rebecca Smith:Critics, including Stephen Kaplan, who pointed out that changes were made to the book as it was reprinted in different editions. In the original hardcover edition father Picararo's car is an old tan for I mean, really, and he experiences an incident in which the hood flies up against the windshield while he's driving it. And later editions the car is described as a Chevrolet Vega, so they I guess they were sued?
Angeline Compau:for making shit up
Rebecca Smith:may 1977, George and Kathy Lutz filed a lawsuit against William Weber, the defense lawyer for Ronald defeo, Jr. At his trial, Paul Hoffman, a writer working on an account of the hauntings. Bernard Burton and Frederick Mars both alleged clairvoyants who examined the house along with good housekeeping magazine, The New York Sunday news and the Hearst Corporation that led to his alleged misappropriation of names for trade purposes, invasion of privacy and mental distress. The claims against the news corporations were dropped and the remainder of the lawsuit was heard by Brooklyn US District Court Judge jack B. Weinstein. September 1979, Judge Weinstein dismissed the Lutz's claims. In the September 17 17th 1979 issue of People Magazine, William Weber wrote I know this book is a hoax. We created this horror story over many bottles of wine. This refers to a meeting at the Weber that Weber said is to that Weber is said to have had with George and Kathy Lutz, during which they discussed what would later become the outline of ansons book. See. So they're just trying to cash and it looks like
Angeline Compau:yeah,
Rebecca Smith:George Lutz maintains that the events in the book were mostly true. In June 1979, George and Kathy Lutz took a polygraph test relating to their experiences in the house. The polygraph tests were performed by Chris valgus and Michael rice, who at the time, were reportedly among the top five polygraph experts in America. The result and Rice's opinions did not indicate lying. Oh, the History Channel did a broadcast of Amityville The Haunting and Amityville Horror or hoax. a two part documentary made by horror screenwriter producer Daniel ferens. I'd like to see that
Angeline Compau:me too. Where, where can we watched it.
Rebecca Smith:I don't know
Angeline Compau:I'm gonna google. I'm gonna get on the googs.
Rebecca Smith:Get on the googs, Amityville, the haunting and Amityville Horror or hoax. Various owners of the house since the Lutz family left in 1976 have reported no problems while living there. James Cromartie who bought the house in 1977 and live there with his wife Barbara for 10 years commented nothing weird ever happened except for people coming by because because of the book in the movie that would suck to to have like that kind of famous house and everybody wanting to see it.
Angeline Compau:Yeah. I think the haunting one is on YouTube. Nice. It looks like abc news did something like that.
Rebecca Smith:Oh, really?
Angeline Compau:Maybe
Rebecca Smith:it's got to be other like a bunch of documentaries.
Angeline Compau:I'm sure there is. I'm not sure there is I like the real story of that. Well with the Ronald defeo Jr.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah.
Angeline Compau:murdering his whole family.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah.
Angeline Compau:Even the children which is awful.
Rebecca Smith:I don't think I know why now that like the movie.
Angeline Compau:Yeah. Well,
Rebecca Smith:I'm gonn go back.
Angeline Compau:No, so that's the whole thing is that ronald defeo Jr. murdered his whole family in that house. And then after
Rebecca Smith:and they're the people that are haunting it,
Angeline Compau:yeah, supposedly, I guess. And the Lutz's after Ronald went to jail, they bought the house and all the furniture in it, which is like, why would you do that? You're stupid. They all died in their beds. You're gonna keep their beds?
Rebecca Smith:Ew
Angeline Compau:Yeah he shot all of them while they were sleeping in their beds. So why would you keep those?
Rebecca Smith:No, I wouldn't keep them.
Angeline Compau:Exactly. So you're just asking for a haunting? If you ask me.
Rebecca Smith:You're asking for it
Angeline Compau:you're asking for some fucking ghosts. So that I could believe it. But then what I heard later on that they made it up. I was like that actually seems more likely. In my opinion, I don't know.
Rebecca Smith:So is there there is record of that happening in that house.
Angeline Compau:The murders were real.
Rebecca Smith:Okay.
Angeline Compau:That is for real. Ronald defeo Jr. and he even said he's like, it's not haunted. He was like, You guys are so full of shit. He even came out and said that in jail. Yeah, he was like, y'all are full of shit.
Rebecca Smith:Yeah,
Angeline Compau:yeah.
Rebecca Smith:Ronald, is he still alive?
Angeline Compau:I know. I don't know. Let's see what Mr. Defao'
Rebecca Smith:What's he up to nowadays. I would I would he not up t get the death penalty.
Angeline Compau:six counts of second degree murder. He died. March 12 2021.
Rebecca Smith:Oh, he just died.
Angeline Compau:How did you die?
Rebecca Smith:in prison, right?
Angeline Compau:Yeah, he had to he wasn't Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was in prison. He is he was 69
Rebecca Smith:was he shanked
Angeline Compau:or 70 years old. official cause of death is yet to be determined. He was age 69
Rebecca Smith:bom bom bom
Angeline Compau:weird
Rebecca Smith:haunting. His kids came back and murdered him.
Angeline Compau:Well, no, not his kids. His brothers and sisters. He killed his parents.
Rebecca Smith:Oh,
Angeline Compau:and his little brothers and sisters.
Rebecca Smith:damn
Angeline Compau:idiot.
Rebecca Smith:Cold blooded dude.
Angeline Compau:Yeah, he's uh, yeah. But that's what they were trying to say was that the house was haunted and that's why he went on that murder spree it all of a sudden just snapped and killed his family and that and that's when he said no, that's not what happened.
Rebecca Smith:Oh, I see
Angeline Compau:Yeah, so let's that's where the whole story came up with the Lutz's they were like yeah this house is haunted that's why that guy went nuts now he's going nutss Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:yeah it's all made up then..
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Rebecca Smith:I tend to believe it's all made up

Angeline Compau:No, not one bit
Josh Smith:but he did cut he sent me a topic and it's a great one so we're going to cover it
Rebecca Smith:Okay. Ready
Josh Smith:so I I believe and so this Joe which we share this belief that if you're going to wear suit, there's a couple things with respect to men shoes. When you wear a suit. You need to wear nice shoes to go with it. Not shoes with rubber soles. Not fake dress shoes. dress shoes.
Angeline Compau:Okay,
Josh Smith:right
Angeline Compau:i think that's fair.
Josh Smith:now some people don't think that dress shoes means you have to have more of a leather sole fair enough right? nice shoes with a shitty rubber sole won't mean you're pushing it but fair enough. Don't wear fucking tennis shoes.
Angeline Compau:Who would do that?
Josh Smith:Everybody does that. Now all the people in sports and everything they're all wearing. Look, I got nothing against tennis shoes. I have a nice pair. They're really cool
Angeline Compau:There's a time and a place
Josh Smith:but I don't wear them with my suit. Rocksteady has a question
Rebecca Smith:question
Josh Smith:Bebop over here. Nobody knows what that is but
Rebecca Smith:what if they're wearing a nice suit? with shoes? But no socks?
Angeline Compau:Oh,
Josh Smith:not acceptable.
Rebecca Smith:Really?
Josh Smith:You wear socks when you wear a suit. You wear nice shoes. You wear socks. Not white ones.
Rebecca Smith:That's like the in thing now for guys to wear like a shorter pant.
Angeline Compau:Yep. flood
Rebecca Smith:ankle bearing
Angeline Compau:Yep.
Josh Smith:No, we're not
Rebecca Smith:and no socks. But nice shoes.
Josh Smith:None of that shit is acceptable.

Josh Smith:You're not gonna see me in Capri pants.
Rebecca Smith:Thank God.
Angeline Compau:Yes. I was gonna say that! Thank you. The world is thanking you
Josh Smith:I think that most people most men would agree look dress shoes, go with a suit. It's a standard. You want to wear tennis shoes, get some shorts on Even, or wear some trousers.
Rebecca Smith:Oh my god
Josh Smith:I wanted to use that word.
Angeline Compau:You are so old

Josh Smith:don't wear tennis shoes with slacks. you may wear them with trousers,
Rebecca Smith:Wait, what's the difference between a slack and a trouser I thought they were the same thing.
Josh Smith:trousers more sturdy. Think of Jon Gruden,you know

Angeline Compau:Yes.
Josh Smith:Is the person aware of like are they just a person who's lived in a say their whole life and never had to be in a septic field? Or are they somebody who has a septic field themselves at their house?

Angeline Compau:dude. Yeah.
Rebecca Smith:It was?
Josh Smith:Hang on.
Rebecca Smith:There was a floater duce?
Angeline Compau:Yes.
Josh Smith:Was it so somebody took a shit and didn't flush or flushed and probably needed to do a double maybe that was it? I don't know. But I get that some people like live in places where they'd might not have a septic field or well that's like very good and you don't flush but just know that when you go to someone else's house that they probably flush so
Rebecca Smith:no
Josh Smith:you need to remember
Rebecca Smith:no, no, no, the rule
Josh Smith:Yes.
Rebecca Smith:If it's brown flush it down. If it's yellow let it mellow
Angeline Compau:Fuck no, If it's yellow
Rebecca Smith:if it's brown flush it down
Angeline Compau:flush that shit too. I'm not peeing on your pee
Rebecca Smith:I'm just saying, i was told the rule that's the rule
Angeline Compau:no if you pee, that stinks A. you think
Rebecca Smith:gross
Angeline Compau:it's so gross? You're gonna flush your pee I don't care if that's what you want to do at your own house. But if you're at someone else's house, flush your piss that's all i'm gonna say
Josh Smith:your right the owner of the house should
Rebecca Smith:Flush Your Piss
Angeline Compau:Flush Your Piss
Josh Smith:the owner has to let you know the house policy if no policy is specified. ie if brown down yellow mellow, then you need to flush. And you do owe a courtesy to check
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Josh Smith:if you need a double flush
Angeline Compau:Yeah,
Josh Smith:you owe that courtesy.
Rebecca Smith:If you drop a duce?
Josh Smith:Yeah, this was a man or woman?
Angeline Compau:I don't want to say
Josh Smith:was it you?
Angeline Compau:no it wasn't me cuz I flush all the time
Rebecca Smith:was it April?
Josh Smith:wait it was it Rob?
Angeline Compau:No, but that is something he would probably do to be funny. He would just leave it floating just to be like yeah, check this out.
Josh Smith:It's okay. If it's if it's if it's another family member and you do it to your other. I mean, it's gross, but it's not it's okay.
Angeline Compau:And sometimes people forget I get it like Okay.
Josh Smith:I have never forgotten to flush a duce in my life
Angeline Compau:Okay. Thank you. Okay, I was trying to be cool
Josh Smith:It's impossible.
Angeline Compau:And I I just you guys just flush. I don't care if you don't do things at your house

Josh Smith:Was it a gentleman caller?
Rebecca Smith:Was this the guy that likes to pee in parking lots?
Josh Smith:Was this a gentlemen caller that forgot to flush his duce?

Josh Smith:Greg Louganis probably doesn't even take shits he's that classy.
Angeline Compau:Probably.
