Half of the Warren's cases are just them showing up and saying "yep, us spook professionals say that you're haunted af" and then just leaving.

The sweeping ghost seems like a valuable asset to any business

love the phrase "inappropriate demons" since it implies the existence of "appropriate demons"

I think the funniest inference about the Enfield Poltergeist being faked is that like Wendigoon said, it STARTED as a real haunting until the girls starting making noise and destroying things for attention. But it's not like there were other things happening alongside the girls faking it, which means that the ghost was trying its best to scare them and then saw them bending spoons and hitting the ceiling with a broom and was like "What the hell is wrong with you people, I'm outta here"

when wendi wakes up in the morning, he asks himself "what button-up hawaiian shirt am I going to scare children in today"

Ed in the movies: Sledgehammer-wielding, Elvis Presley singing, demon-slaying badass. Ed IRL: haha Holy Water go brrrr

Just want to point out that most scam artists come across as "sweet, genuinely trying to help." That's how they're able to scam in the first place.

I love that in the Amityville case, the owners and neighbors were so confused and alarmed by the "bad smell," but didn't make any connection whatsoever that multiple people died there and they didn't even clean well enough to throw out the beds. Wonder what the smell could be. Truly a mystery. 🤦🏻‍♂

This man unironically said malarkey and I didn’t cringe. He’s too powerful

Ed Warren in the movies: force of nature that gives you a feeling of comfort even in the most terrifying situations Ed Warren irl: italian restaurant owner

Fun Succubus Fact! The roots of terms "Succubus" and "Incubus" originally mean "Lie Below" and "Lie Above" respectively. The two species, for want of a better word, were considered to be the same thing, switching between male and female depending on the target. Succubi were bottoms and Incubi were tops. But we can go further. The exact description says that the creature takes female form and collects you-know-what from a man before taking on a male form and using the collected "material" to impregnate a women. This is thought to be fully constructed, with no deeper source, by people in medieval times to explain babies born out of wedlock. "We've never even spoken your honor, we just both got deceived by the same evil demon"

I want to see a dark comedy movie about a grumpy old guy in his apartment being the caretaker of a bunch of possessed objects. Spraying them with holy water like a cat when they start teleporting, explaining that he will not go get them a young virgin to sacrifice, and keeping kids and troublemakers away from them. I imagine a gag where he has holy chains and stuff in his house to keep him in bed like Moonknight, stopping any possession shenanigans. Heck, have a "time-out" box similar to the box that Annabelle is held in. Have the whole story be like a "weird family" thing, but with this older guy who has to look after these objects and the demons inside them. Probably too dark for regular audiences, but the idea of a bunch of possessed dolls banding together to save their only friend in some wacky hijinks sounds hilarious to me.

The sweeping ghost sounds chill asf

Bro, "A philia of the Necro variety" is the best way to say that word.

whenever I hear about the people who taunted Annabelle and were almost killed, I always think about Shane threatening the doll and telling it to follow him home 😂😂

It's just so hard for me to believe in these hauntings. Who tf has a demon screaming at you, physically assaulting you, then just think "Damn. Forgot to do laundry today."

The Warren's literally set up their own little SCP foundation.

"She saw an aura around her teachers." Know teachers from the 50's that was most likely just the clouds of cigarette smoke that came standard with a teaching degree at the time.

so actually, a fun fact: Feeling like you are floating, that you have grown twice your size, or even that you have shrunk is a fairly common thing for young children to experience! It's called alice in Wonderland syndrome, and I recommend looking into it. sometimes even adults experience it (though in rarer cases) I bet if you asked around, at least one person you know may have experienced it at some point in their life, I know I did a lot when I was a kid.

Imagine driving on black ice and being convinced it was an evil doll making it hard to drive💀

Finishing watching a baseball game after being Touched By A Ghost™ would be the ULTIMATE dad move.

Random little nerdy theory: what if Donna Bienviento and Angie from Resident Evil Village were named after Donna and Angie, the owners of the Annabel doll. Because y’know spooky dolls.

The real life Annabelle doll compared to the movie always cracks me up. The fact they locked up the cute raggedy ann doll in a big container. "Watch out, she'll snuggle you to death!"

Dude, to be fair kids come up with some crazy stuff and they will say it with complete conviction. Once you've heard your son tell you that he owns a horse, but it's a tiny horse, and it lives under the shed in the backyard (there's not even a shed) you take things with a grain of salt.

“Go fight ‘em, this is your house!” Would be the most American response to a haunting ever 😂

The Amityville House sounds like a bad case of mould to me. Which is terrifying in of itself imo. Mould spores can do wild stuff, from paranoia to hallucinations. People passing out, pressure on the chest, strange stench, all those speak for this theory. Doesn't make it any less real or traumatizing for the poor family that moved into that house. The fact that the beds which the previous family was murdered in were never replaced also supports this, as blood is like fertilizer for some nasty moulds.

According to buzzfeed unsolved Annabelle now resides in Shane's rib cage.

While I'm a believer in the supernatural, based on my own personal experiences, I'm also all for establishing logical/mundane explanations too. What I haven't been able to fully reconcile for just over a decade now, is an incident I experienced in the middle of the night at my grandma's house. I was up alone in the living room playing Animal Crossing on the wii as I did most nights that summer. Beside the couch I was sitting on was this old radio. (When I say "old" it looks like it was made in the 70s). Then out of nowhere, static. Vague mumblings of lost words and weak connection, as if wavering between stations. I sat there frozen, just staring at this thing for about a minute or two before it turned back off. Confused and a little spooked, I gathered the courage to hop off the couch and unplugged the radio from the wall just to be sure it didn't do that again. I then shook it off and pretended that that never happened, and returned to my game. Weird for sure, but it's also an old house. Maybe the wiring is funked up, maybe the radio had a failing circuit, whatever. Now, this thing didn't have a built-in power source, no backup battery or anything like that. So you can imagine my absolute shit-blasting horror when this thing turned back on, 30 minutes later, with a crystal clear voice: "Get out, get out. Damn it, get out! GET OUT!" It was an old man's voice, getting angrier and louder the longer I just stared in fear. I did not in fact get out. I was beyond petrified. Here it was, 3am or some shit, a quiet and chill night of gaming in peace, when all the sudden our radio is possessed and demanding I run out the front door. I honestly don't even know how long that went on for. It could've been ten seconds, it could've been ten minutes. At this point my brain has blocked out some of the details, but I very distinctly remember the sound and cadence of his voice, the ominous red dot lighting up the power button, the black hole forming in my gut and moving up to clog my throat. Eventually the voice stopped, the radio turned back off, and I just...kept staring. Was it going to do that again? Was a twisted, ghoulish entity going to creep around the dark corner of the hallway, lurching toward me if I didn't leave? If I *did* leave? What if it was a trap? What the actual goddamn hell? So, being the smart 12 year old I was, I simply turned on all the lights in my near vicinity, saved my game, and switched on Nickelodeon. Thank whatever good freaking lord there is that Spongebob was on to distract me. I stayed wide awake the rest of the night, refusing to fall asleep until the sun peeked over the horizon and banished that nightmare and a half. To this day, the most reasonable explanation I can think of was that some late night radio play was on, and something in the house's wiring got tripped up and caused some sort of temporary electrical discharge. That voice I heard was an actor playing out a character and reading his lines. But thing is, that'd be one hell of a coincidence. Just his voice, just those words, repeated over and over. Not to mention, the TV was functioning perfectly fine. The light I did have on before the incident didn't flicker at all. Maybe it was just that specific outlet? Just the radio itself, releasing a charge? Freaky but explainable electromagnetism stuff? I don't know, man. I'm just not yet fully convinced it was anything scientific. To my knowledge the radio never did anything like that again, and it functioned just fine afterward. There were other toys in the room that would occasionally go off when you walked by, but those had old dying batteries in 'em. That's simply what happens occasionally with those. Not to mention, my entire family is convinced that house is straight up haunted as hell. While it was/and is my grandma's house, my parents, my siblings and I also lived there for several years. My dad would see shadow people. He'd hear doorknobs twisting and opening when no one else was home, or boxes being slid across the floor in the kitchen. My grandma had experiences of her own, she's convinced whatever is in there is nothing but friendly and tame. When I moved back after college, I had sleep paralysis episodes of invisible demons mimicking my grandmother's voice, enticing me to wake up til they too got impatient and yelled at me the exact same way the old guy on the radio did. That one could be easily written off as hallucination, at least. But right after I would also go on to have out of body experiences, getting pulled out of my body, only to get slammed back in over and over for what felt likes hours. Again, quite possibly just my sleep-riddled mind tripping out on hypnogogic bs. And sure, shared psychosis is a thing. But...all these accounts combined, it seems too real to simply shrug off. We humans think we know everything, but we really, truly don't. Not even close. Anyways. This comment is long enough. If anybody knows of any radio plays that feature an angry old man telling someone to get the hell out, lemme know. Peace. (edited just to fix typos and make my wording more clear here and there)

Loraine Warren: "I don't mind liberties being taken with my story. Anything that scares people out of talking to demons is a good thing." *Based*

My dad, a pastor, did occasionally got calls about demon possession, but according to him “99.9% of the time it’s just a simple mental/psychological issues, so I just recommend to see a doctor.” But one time he mentioned he had to face a real demon possessed person. Sadly he never shared details with us and took the secret to his grave, but I remember he mentioned demons are frightening being that should never be underestimated.

The problem with a lot of these situations is that outside of the parties involved, the occurrences never happen. It's always a small circle of individuals who could all potentially benefit from the exposure. Demons are an awfully convenient malevolence. Just remember fear is infectious and there's nothing scarier than a mystery we don't understand.

Fun thing about the Smurls - they used to be absolutely made fun of and harassed by the locals who did not believe them, which was most people. My mom went to the same campground they stayed in and she said that all the local kids would tease and bully the Smurl children when she was there. They were social pariahs.

Exorcisms we’re like a craze back in the day. My girlfriends mother told me that when she was in high school she would repeat phrases or just read signs out loud and repeat them. So her mom took her to exrocist and had a whole exorcism done (they’re not catholic btw). After that she told her friends at school about it and they told a teacher who took her to a counselor and it turns out she just had mild tourette syndrome lmao.

Not to discredit his argument or anything but using "the vibes were off." As evidence is hilarious.

The "I don't wanna speak ill of the dead" frase was said so often... I feel Wendigoon was just trying to avoid getting his feet pulled at night 😂 Love this and you!

I doubt Hasbro would be too happy if the Annabelle movie used the doll's actual design.

A friend and I once decided to do a marathon of all the Amityville movies, and then immediately changed our plans because we found out how many of them existed.

this current upload streak you've been on is gonna go down in youtube history.. keep up the amazing content dude i cant get enough

The reason that Ed probably placed that tarot card outside of Annabelle’s case is because one of the meanings of the Devil card is being bound to something, and could’ve been a way to ensure to help bind the entity to the doll and, in turn, the case!

Annabelle: "hehehe, i shall make their car swerve at an inopportune moment." Ed: "No! Bad evil doll! Bad!" *Sprits with Holy Water*

What sort of person gets his chest supernaturally scratched open and then seriously thinks, "oh, this is just a seven-year old girl who wants us to stay"?

Actually, the most famous paranormal investigators are 4 men named: Ray Stantz, Winston Zeddemore, Peter Venkman and Egon Spangler.

I live not too far away from Amityville. The house itself currently has residents and there hasn't been any paranormal sightings to the publics knowledge. The upstairs curved windows have been replaced as well to square ones probably because how recognizable they were. Beautiful town and beautiful house. May the DeFeo Family rest in peace ❤

Wendigoon has been climbing up the ranks of my favorite RU-vidrs- his presentation is so comfortable and friendly and it’s so enjoyable

You should do a demonology iceberg. There's lots of them to fill the tiers with and they're all really weird looking. The Lesser Key Of Solomon has 72 demons in it.

Regarding the Snedeker haunting, Im actually the youngest brother of Carmen Reed (formerly Snedeker) and have a bit of insight on the whole story that maybe others dont. Carmen's oldest son, Phil was my nephew obviously but growing up we often shared a bedroom as Carmen came home to live with our parents several times. And so we basically grew up as brothers up until the point that she married Al Snedeker. I truly like and respect Al now, but when Phil and I were young and sharing a bedroom I didnt really like the guy at all. My sister was apparently pretty cute back in those days and had her pick of lots of potential husbands. And Im sure there's probably a "Murphy's Law" that addresses this, but my sister picked the one that Phil and I liked the absolute least at the time. This was the late '70s/early '80s... the days of men with overly hairy chests, large medallions around their necks and custom vans with scenes from Star Wars painted on the sides, and Al was right at home in that scene, machismo included. He liked to come home from work, root his azz in front of the tv and have my sister bring him his beer in frosty mugs, and would get annoyed if she was late... "hey Carm... you gonna bring me a beer or what?!" But one thing that may have tipped the scales in his favor, at least in my sister's eyes was that Al wanted to adopt Phil and Brad (Carmen's 2nd oldest child). We were all living in Plainville, Connecticut at the time, and once they were married they wound up moving about a mile down the road in some new townhomes, and at first Al did show an interest in Phil and Brad. From my point of view this all ended when my sister gave him his own daughter and later a son. In my opinion, all the pretense kinda dropped and Phil and Brad were relegated to "pain in the azz stepkid" status, and were treated accordingly. This as everyone knows, is not uncommon. My own father treated my mom's previous kids much differently than he did me, so Im not trying to paint Al as the worst step dad in the world. But I do think that if it had been his own biological kids who were first claiming to see and hear things, there wouldnt have been all of the initial skepticism and push-back from Al and my sister. Years after it all happened, I was talking to Phil about what happened in the basementand he described a scene as follows: Al had removed all of the lightbulbs to punish Phil and Brad for the huge power bills, as though a couple of measly light bulbs could cause all that expense, but I digress... so the room was almost completely black... there was just the smallest bit of light coming in through a window or crack in the basement door. And yet my nephew Phil could see this intensely black... like smudgepaint black... shadow doing these long, lazy circles while gliding over him in his bed at night maybe a foot or so below the ceiling. My parents and I had been living in Italy for my dad's job in the defense industry, so luckily I didnt get to experience any of the haunting first hand. But of all the stories I was later told by everyone who had been involved first hand, I think that one scared me the most. To imagine being essentially locked in your bedroom at night, with no source of light... knowing that your parents didn't believe you, and knowing that the evil in the house was also aware that you were basically almost totally alone... and then it decides to reveal itself in these slow, languid motions... knowing that you have to lay there terrified and just... WATCH IT. Man... that fked with my head for years afterward. Tl;dr: Al was kind of a dick back then, and so that's likely why nobody believed my nephew(s) at first.

I really respect you not letting your spirituality & belief hurt your objectivity. I am believer & spirtual man myself but that is why it is important to demand evidence & credibility from these events before simply agree with to promote a person's story as true. It is always important to remember they're are sharks in the water around all of these cases. You should do more videos on this sort on cryptids aswell.

I always laugh at how attractive they made Ed Warren in “The Conjuring” when in reality he was like the one uncle/distant relative/family friend from the Northeast who taught you how to get beer from a cooler and when you asked “why can’t I have some?” He said: “not until ya 30 kid.”

The devil tarot card means fear of being trapped or unable to escape. Seems fitting considering Annabelle is locked in a box…kinda funny

I used to live in a house where a man had previously offed himself in the basement. One night, after work, the bedroom door kept slowly opening and closing, to which I responded "Dude! I'm trying to fucking sleep!" Then it stopped and I was left alone. My girlfriend at the time was still harassed. So yeah, fight em. This is my house.

My grandmother met Lorraine Warren in Stratford, CT in the late 1960s. She gave my grandmother advice about a Ouija board my teenage aunt had somehow gotten ahold of. My grandmother also called on Lorraine asking for help with an apparition plaguing a friend of hers. Both stories are mild compared to these stories, yet they are insane!! In 1999, I attended a presentation given by both Ed and Lorraine at a university in New Haven, CT. It was very interesting. And lastly, a friend of mine lives in Southington, CT near the haunted house. If I'm not mistaken, the house recently had a bad fire. I'm going to look into that.

Wendigoon is the only person i stop everything for just to listen to them talk

As a Christian I think it’s really important to be skeptical when going into a possible possession. There are many cases in which the ‘possession’ is actually poorly understood mental health/people wanting attention (which is it’s own mental problem). We need to do right by people and eliminate all possibilities before even considering possession.

Started listening to this on an overcast day with the window open, about halfway through I started hearing a distant melody, something you hear from an ice cream truck, but definitely not something you want to hear while listening to a series of hauntings. 10/10 would be cursed by this video again

I will say about the mortuary one, my father is a mortician. Once you know the biz a bit, there's really nothing scary about it. The 'surgical tools' are just the tools of the trade. Embalming isn't the prettiest thing, but it's a service done in the spirit of love for our departed loved ones. I'd have no issue living in an old funeral home. Especially because, as an Orthodox Christian, I get annual house blessings in Theophany season

Personally I'm not a believer in any of this. But the first thing someone should do when selling a house is REMOVE THE MURDER BEDS! Also, when you said the ghost's feet are always moving. I just picture a pissed off tap dancer lol. I love the topics you pick, this is definitely one of the best channels on RU-vid.

The list of Amityville Horror films now includes Amityville Karen, Amityville Vibrator, and Amityville In The Hood. Truly a legendary saga

For the Perron family, the spirit that tucked the children into sleep is still at the house and her name is Abigail Adams. She serves as a protector of the home and she is a very friendly spirit! She loves the guests and can leave the house at any time but chooses not to. If anyone is interested in learning more about the actual house and Abigail I recommend watching Sam and Colby's Conjuring series. It goes into Abigail and the other spirits that roam the house's perspective. (ik this vid is from years ago but when watching the series it sparked smth in me lol)

Wendigoon, you sir have become to me as asmr is to those people. Where once I was frightened by hearing a man tell me horror stories at night, your voice has become regular to me and sleeping without it now seems stranger.

What I love about The Conjuring? How much work went into it being a period piece. The hand made blankets, the crocheted vests, the exact thin coffee mugs that I saw in my grandmother's kitchen. It's such a small detail, the kitchen set, but ... there's nothing to throw one out, to remind you the film was made in a different century than the case happened in. People talk about the scares, about the real versus story elements... no one talks about the work making it a period piece.

God bless the one patron named CUMRANGER who shows up during the end credits. It gets me everytime.

Grayson projects did a video on The Warrens that really changed how I saw them. They were not "sweet," especially not Ed. Ed's teenage gf lived with them in their home for many years, and when the Conjuring movies contract was first being drawn up, there was specifically a clause that stated they could not depict the Warrens in any sort of relationship with minors, which is a really specific thing to state if you never had a relationship with a minor. Also, Ed may or may not have been physically abusive as well. I'd recommend watching the video to anyone who idolizes them. I don't blame Wendigoon for not knowing this, they worked very hard to keep this buried as their fame rose. Also I just wanted to hear about these cases.

Shane from Watcher, then Buzzfeed unsolved must be on another level because he repeatedly mocks demons on every one of their supernatural episodes and has yet to have anything happen to him.

Imagine just chillin, watchin a yankees game, and a ghost just decides to give you sloppy toppy

I met Lorraine when she came to my university my freshman year for a halloween event hosted by the student gov. She told me that my aura was blue, and that I seemed very sad. She showed us a bunch of videos of the exorcisms they had done, including a slide reel (like, old timey, 70's projector slides) of the aura around 9/11 and the amity house. I don't believe any of it, but it was pretty fun. She was very sweet, regardless of all the supernatural crap. Talked with her for a bit after it was over (not many people could stomach staying through the exorcism videos, including the girls I went there with). This was back in 2013.

Dear annabelle, im deeply sorry for any accidental glances that i and any other viewers made through the video. You deserve the upmost respect and kindness from everyone here.

"One comes along that's so bad, if you don't debunk it, it makes all the others look bad" This kinda relates to how I feel about psychics. Like I have known two people close to me who are spiritually sensitive, and I believe they are genuine because they're very private about it. Compare this to "professional" mediums who get paid to go on tv and try to read the people in the room; they end up making psychics as a whole look like greedy insensitive assholes (there's one video of a "medium" talking to a woman who lost her husband in 911 which makes me seethe with rage). Like weeding out the fakes is very necessary to keep the whole from being seen as a joke (and you do *not* wanna treat the supernatural as a joke)

Wendigoon: "I don't like debunking, I want to keep the magic alive." The "magic": stuff of nightmares, possessions, having to run out of your house in the middle of the night because the ghosts are trying to kill you, ... Seems legit.

By the way, I really enjoy the way you approach these topics. It's very personal, very open and honest. A pleasure to watch and listen to. Thank you.

Thank God you make videos like these I was falling asleep at work and your detail description and slight humor mixed in here and there, you woke me right up and got me through the night.

"speaks latin, which is a bad thing" me, a latin student: *sweats nervously*

This is probably one of the only “horror” channels that doesn’t do everything it can to scare you (which ultimately makes it less scary) your videos are amazing man, keep it up, hopefully you can get a million by the end of the year. Edit: When you were talking about how the girl bent the majority spoons for attention I thought you were going to say they caught someone they didn’t know on their property doing everything, and as someone who doesn’t believe in the paranormal or religion that was such a more terrifying thought for me.

Imagine how scared they get cutting off the basement lights and running up the stairs.

I am officially going down the Wendigoon rabbit hole. Its a lot of long videos in a row and you know what? I kind of love it.

I met the Warrens b/c my college hired them for a talk and we all got a semi-private meet and greet who were part of one of the clubs. They flat out told us they did not help anyone who was not a practicing Christian (not even Jews, Muslims, etc, and never agnostics, atheists, or those dreaded heathen folk), and if someone was not Christian, it was their own demise. And any questions about their validity, like towards Amityville, was met with a scoff of "Obviously you are not a true Christian." Yeah. This was the mid/late 1990's, so before they got super famous from films. *long sigh* I felt they were not only frauds, but jerks.

I had a large wooden chest that was really old that would creak at night. It was already creepy, and I had dreams of being trapped in it and locked in. I heard about the Amityville story and I got so much more terrified of that chest, and I never got over that fear until I was like 12. Finally we got rid of the chest and I stopped having the nightmares. It’s crazy how you can psychologically create such a deep seated fear of something that your brain plays tricks on you.

Its crazy because most of the shit Wendi is describing is actually scarier than all the movies 😅

For the sake of space and time, I won't go into everything here, but I was raised Catholic in Milford, Connecticut, went to Catholic school and one of the priests who came to serve at the church was personal friends as well as a consultant with the Warrens. I was 13 and 1986 and he invited them to do a lecture in our school auditorium. At that point in time their lectures were much different as they presented photos, audio recordings and limited video. I slept on my parents bedroom floor for the next 3 days because I was so terrified and never from any scary movie or sci-fi film have I gotten the same level of terror. The aforementioned priest was also the coordinator for all the altar servers and a few of us on a couple of occasions got to go with him to their house in Monroe which was amazing. People can have their opinions on the Warren's and their work, but I assure you, you might not believe any of this is true, you might believe that they are scam artists, but Ed and Lorraine Warren were in it to win it and 110% believed in what they were doing. At 50, I've no longer been Roman Catholic for many years and have my own thoughts and opinions on all of this, but whether people like them or did not like them. They are local legends in the state of Connecticut and I was truly blessed to have been able to know them if just a little bit more than the average person. Edit: I understand that you have only so much time to put out a lot of information, but you left out a whole lot on the Johnson case. There was a lot that happened before Arnie challenged the demon and a whole lot that happened before the murder. It wasn't just a couple of people closely involved with the family who witnessed things. There were neighbors who witnessed hearing in human screaming coming from the house at times when no one was home. At one point, many people from their church including priests that were called in literally had a prayer vigil at the property. There was also a lot within the testimony of the witnesses to the murder that was left out and seemingly important. And mind you I'm not angry or being snotty, I love your work and have binge watched everything you have on your channel, but I encourage people to really take a deep dive and decide for themselves. Also as far as Ed's demeanor later in life. Imagine if from pretty much the get-go. You have been called out and ostracized and called a straight out liar and phony because of your life's work that you passionately believe in. You might get a bit sarcastic and cranky after so many years of hearing the same garbage over and over. Like I said, I love your channel. I love your work. It's better than most. Keep on doing what you do.

I am a fan of the Warren cases and have spent a lot of time researching them throughout the years, but one thing I wish was more talked about the over glamorization of both Ed and Lorraine. In 1963, while Ed was still a school bus driver, the Warrens housed a minor named Judith Penney who attended the high school. Allegedly, Ed had s3xual relations with Judith that carried on for four decades. In 1978, Judith fell pregnant with Ed's child and Lorraine told her to tell people that someone broke into the house and r4ped her or otherwise abort the baby. Lorraine drove Judith to the clinic where she ended up having an abortion as to not to give Ed a bad reputation in his now budding career. Judith has also claimed that Ed used to physically abuse Lorraine to the point where she was sometimes even knocked unconscious. From what I'm aware, the police were only called by the neighbors once which led to Judith ending up spending the night in jail while police tried with no success to get the 15 year old to confess to her relationship with Ed. While both the relationship between Ed and Judith as well as Lorraine's abuse are alleged, it is fact that Judith lived with the Warrens, even confirmed by Ed and Lorraine's own daughter Judy Warren. Though I love learning about the Warren's and will continue to enjoy researching them, I think it's important to be aware of the allegations and not to blindly idolize or sugarcoat Ed and Lorraine's lives. Love your videos :)) keep up the great work!

"If two random people show up with a painting they made of your house, invite them inside and talk about ghosts." The Warrens had a strange business strategy, but I guess it worked.

I love the camp factors of the James Wan movies. You did a phenomenal job covering the reality and also gave the Warrens a little grace. Nicely done. :)

after binging all wendigoon content I notice he says whenever in place if when almost every time. instead of when they went to the store it's whenever they went to the store. amazing addicting content. keep it up!

I don't really have anything to say. I just like your content and want to give you a boost in the algorithm.

I may know why Ed put the Devil card on Annabelle's case. Depending on the layout of your cards, it can mean being trapped or being forced to serve something. Annabelle was a literal puppet for a demon, or an unwilling servant. Or it was to tell the doll that they, and by proxy the demon, were now trapped forever.

I'm pretty sure Annabelle now posses the body of Shane Madej, or rather Shane has trapped Annabelle in his body. All hail the Watcher, I guess.

Really appreciated your analysis at the end of this. I don't know much at all about any of your topics, but I can tell how much effort you put into not just gathering the facts but sifting then down to the most common denominators. Thanks for all you do.

For the cloven hoofprints in the snow bit of the amityville case, new york does have deer, so cloven hoofprints in the snow aren't exactly supernatural.

The Haunted is one of my favorite haunted house movies. I love the effect that a simple voice coming from where it shouldn't be has. No jump scare, no loud noise, just a familiar voice coming from where nobody is. That's fucking good horror material.

I think it's very interesting that the boy in the photo in Amityville looks nothing like the brother, but a lot like the neighbor's kid, even down to the clothes matching a photo Ed himself took of the boy outside the house.

That feeling when your dad brings you back a present from his business trip.

About to fold two loads of laundry, this couldn’t have dropped at a better time. Lets gooooo

I think the most important aspect of whether or not you believe in this stuff is that, to lots of the victims, THEY believe it. It's sort of like religion, in that even if you don't believe in it, it brings a lot of comfort to a lot of people. That being said, also like religion is that you can't dole out real consequences off of only possibilities or speculation

I read "Amityville Horror" as a teen. I'm in my 50s now and still have a thing with uncurtained windows out to darkness, 3:15 and pig-eyes.

There is a rare psychiatric syndrome called clinical lycanthropy which is when a person becomes deluded and then believes that they have transformed into an animal and they go into a state of psychosis where they think they are an animal and start acting like one, its very rare to have but i think some of the possession cases have actually been this

My favorite Warren moment occurred about 15 years ago when Lorraine came on to a reality ghost hunting show and she took a tour of the home and sat down with the family afterwards. This was the conversation. Lorraine: well I toured the home and there is something going on in your son's room Family: what do you mean? Lorraine: well....his room is sad honey...and that usually means demons Family: well he is a teenager Lorraine: no it's demons 10/10

Wendigoon, you're videos are just top notch, in my opinion. Your vibe is so chill, your topics are interesting, and I appreciate that you lend weight to the skeptics side. Kudos!

I'm going down a rabbit hole of watching your vids. I love them! You're so cool and you're my special interest rn

No one who lived in the Amityville house after the Lutz family moved out ever claimed to experience anything ghostly or paranormal. I think it was simply a normal house where a horrible tragedy occurred and then George Lutz decided to take advantage of the home's infamy and turn it into a payday.

I could be wrong about this but when she ”saw auras around her teachers”, I think that means she just had a form of synesthesia, which can cause you to see colours or sense things after another sensation triggers them. Eg you hear a trumpet and that causes you to see the colour red. I am pretty sure there is a type of synesthesia where you can see auras around people/associate people with colours. My mum had a friend who actually experienced this, which is why I find this fascinating.
