This week, we're reacting to one hell of an episode of The Dead Files: “Drawn to Evil.”
In Medina, New York, Steve and Amy investigate a gorgeous 1837 cobblestone inn where a family is dealing with screams, shadow figures, slamming doors, physical attacks, frightening nightmares, and an alarming amount of activity centered around one particular closet.
Then Amy finds a Satanic vortex.
Because apparently regular haunted closets aren't enough anymore.
We also dig into the history of the nearly 200-year-old former stagecoach inn, including a tragic former owner, some spectacularly bad financial decisions, and the horrifying 1889 murder of a young girl. Meanwhile, Amy encounters so many entities that she describes the property as a paranormal highway.
And this case comes with a very interesting twist for us: Amy recently stumbled across Cameron, a member of the family who lived in the house, on TikTok. Cameron was interviewed during filming but didn't appear in the finished episode. He, his mom Lucinda (Cindi on the show), and his sister Kelsey have agreed to come on TAC and tell us what happened from their perspective.
So if you have questions you'd like us to ask the family, send them our way! We're already making a list. The public episode specifically invites listeners to send questions before we record with them.
How do you even get a vortex like that?
Grab your cutest ghost-hunting boots, stay the hell out of the closet, and join us on The Paranormal Highway.
