49: The Thing in the House, Part 2

In 1974, two couples had just graduated from college. George and Tina Martell along with Rick and Anna Delapena were about to start new jobs, but finances were tight…so they decided to pool their money and move into a house together.

The home they found was creaky and old, but it was spacious. What’s more, it came with furniture…including a painting hanging over the fireplace, of a woman by that same fireplace. Surely, this must have been the lady of the house. Anna felt unsettled by the woman’s stare, but they left the portrait up, out of respect.

The house, however, would not respect them. Within a week, they became subject to a barrage of frightening paranormal activity, including physical attack.

Brace yourself for a haunting, which was first discovered by paranormal researcher, Brad Steiger. After interviewing the witnesses, he claimed it was one of the most disturbing case he had encountered.

*Please note, at one point, an eyewitness describes the entity in their home as being some sort of evil or demonic ‘dwarf'. I’m conscious that this sort of language can be offensive to some listeners, for which I apologise. However, in the interests of accuracy, I wanted to stick with what the eyewitness actually said at the time.Source:'Shadow World' by Brad Steiger.
