[Amy] He wants to hurt people
and he's laughing.
He's manipulating them.
It's almost like
it's trying to,
you know, make us
all angry at each other.
I get flashes in
my head, I'm like,
I wanna punch somebody
or something like that.
Ooh, bad thoughts,
bad thoughts.
When and how did
this guy get whacked?
Gets in his El Camino
and boom.
A man's voice said,
"I'm going to k*ll you."
His main goal was to turn
you guys against each other.
I don't feel
safe in this area.
He wants the person dead.
My name is Amy Allan,
I see dead people.
I saw a lean preacher.
I speak to dead people
and they speak to me.
This person feels
like a monster.
But there's only one way
to know if my findings
are real.
They're sucking the life
out of these people.
I rely on my partner.
I'm Steve DiSchiavi.
I am a retired New York City
homicide detective.
So, how many bodies
are we talking?
And I know every person,
every house
has secrets.
It's my job to reveal them.
But Steve and I never speak.
We never communicate
during an investigation.
Until the very end.
Ah, you're not
gonna like this.
When we uncover
if it's safe for you
to stay...
I'm sorry, I'm gonna
go take a break.
Or time to get out.
It wants inside the house
'cause it wants to k*ll you.
[gasps]
[Steve] I'm out here
in Shelby township.
It's a suburb about
an hour outside of Detroit.
I got a call from a desperate
couple, Holly and Randy,
who sound like
they're going through hell.
They told me whatever's
in the house is destroying
their health
and their marriage.
It's just been
a downward spiral.
Unbelievable things
happen to me.
We would love some help.
We don't know where to turn.
[Steve] It sounds like
things are really bad ::. --] ::. align:right line:.%
and I'm hoping we
can help them out.
[Amy] Oh, boy.
I don't feel good,
I don't feel
safe in this area.
And I got scared.
Oh, I'm feeling sick,
I'm feeling sick.
Eh, it's really bad.
I need to get out.
[Steve] So, Holly,
I got to tell you,
driving through this
beautiful neighborhood
and this gorgeous home,
hard to believe that
there's a problem here.
But when you and I spoke,
you sounded pretty frightened.
What's going on here?
My family is being att*cked
and I'm really worried about
both my daughters' safety.
Okay, so, let's start
with the basics.
Who actually lives here?
My daughter,
Heather, she's .
My daughter, Audry, she's .
Myself and my husband, Randy.
Okay, how long have
you guys lived here?
years.
That's a long time, so why
are you calling us now?
Things changed?
Three years ago,
things started happening.
So, what do you
think is the cause
of the activity to
spike like this?
I think it's tied to my
youngest daughter, Audry.
[Steve] How so?
In , she had
a head injury,
concussion, severe concussion.
What happened?
She was
practicing for track...
-[Steve] Okay.
-...at school and she fell.
Then activity
started happening
where she started
seeing dead people.
How is she dealing with this,
I mean, is she upset about it?
Yes, she cannot fall asleep,
she feels like,
she has to protect us.
-Too much responsibility
for -year-old, number one.
-Absolutely.
Too much stress for her.
-It's not a good situation.
-Not at all.
Okay, Holly, if you can, do me
a favor and give me a list
of what kind of stuff you
guys are going through.
[Holly] We're hearing voices.
We're experiencing
sudden mood changes.
Unbelievable health issues.
And now it's getting
physically violent.
So, who has the most
health issues.
This point, me.
What's going on with you?
I've had surgeries
in and a half years.
[Steve] Are you in
pain all the time?
Chronic pain.
[Steve] What makes
you think it's paranormal?
Tried every procedure
to relieve the pain,
it never works.
Now, you mentioned
mood changes,
what are we talking about?
I just, I get
depressed and sad
and don't want to do anything.
And Randy has fits of rage
and anger and yells,
it's not like him.
Is it affecting your
marriage at all?
It is. It's almost
like it's trying to,
you know, make us
all angry at each other.
[Steve] What about Heather?
[Holly] We have noticed
changes in her behavior.
We'll ask her a question
and she will just
start screaming at you.
And she doesn't know where
this anger is coming from.
And she has become depressed.
It's very hard.
She just wants to be
a happy teenager
and she has to deal with this
and... not easy.
We just push her everyday.
Listening to you, I'd say why
the hell won't you just
get out of here and move?
My family has told me,
we all want to leave but we're
afraid whatever is here,
is it gonna follow us?
[Amy] So, I'm hearing
woman crying a lot.
This is a living woman
and a dead woman.
They're both crying
and all depressed.
There's a link there.
[man] So, what kind
of link is it, they have?
She wants help.
The dead woman is trying to
hold the living woman's hand.
And like, putting all
that emotion on her.
So, I think this living woman,
she's having a lot
of wicked depression.
[sighs]
[Steve] So, what's
going on in here?
I've had some of my worst
experiences in this room.
I hear voices.
It sounds like a male
and a female.
It's almost like, they're
having a full on conversation.
But they're trying to be quiet
where I can't hear them.
Okay and you're
hearing this when?
I hear it during the day
when I'm home alone.
Okay, anything else?
I've actually seen
through the hallway,
a shadow figure.
-I was home alone.
-Okay.
I looked down the hallway,
something caught my eye
and probably a seven-foot
tall shadow figure
glided from Audry's room
to straight into
Heather's room.
Any shape?
The top was more,
like a little bit
of a rounded,
maybe a hood.
-Okay.
-But it came around like this.
-And bowed out.
-And bowed out.
What you think is here?
This isn't human.
This isn't, like, a spirit,
this is something,
I think it's something evil
that's trying to hurt us.
I'm afraid it's going
to eventually,
it will either destroy
our family as a unit
or my girls.
[Amy] This male came in
and he was extremely tall.
Rail thin.
He was wearing a black suit
and he had a huge head
but it was a skull.
Like, a decomposing skull.
He is absolutely
the problem here.
The living here, they're
hearing a male voice.
I'll be very surprised if
they can understand it.
So, there's this dude
that I was talking about
and he is spread out
like, spread-eagle
on the ceiling
above someone here.
Very solid, I think,
shadow person
that they're seeing
and this person is seeing this
and freaking out
and he's laughing.
[Steve] So, Randy, I was
talking to Holly earlier
and she was telling me
about what you guys
got going on in this house.
It sounds like,
paranormal activity
is off the charts here,
do you agree with that?
Oh, yeah, yeah,
it's like, it just keeps
ramping up more and more.
So, what kind of
experiences have you had?
[Randy] I'll be down
here in the basement,
I feel like a presence
is watching me.
Are you alone or is there
somebody down here with you?
No, I'm down here by myself
'cause I'm usually
working on something.
Okay, what else?
Saw a shadow figure looking at
me from the basement stairs.
So, your wife mentioned
a shadow figure she saw.
Was yours solid looking?
Solid, jet black.
I just froze there, I was
just screaming,
"What is that?"
So, Randy, I gotta tell you,
I spoken to Holly
and she's really concerned
about your marriage.
I mean, do you have
concerns about that?
Yeah... we've been
fighting a lot
because my anger--
Is that your personality
or you've just
been holding it back?
No, usually I'm easy going,
nothing bothers me.
But everything she says
or something will set me off
and I feel upset about it
and, you know,
I just short, you know,
I get flashes in
my head of like,
I wanna punch somebody
or something like that.
-Got a lot on your plate.
-Mmm-hmm.
[Amy] This dead
male coming in.
-[man] The tall man?
-[Amy] Yeah.
Up, crawling around
on the ceiling,
reaching down.
And I feel like, a living male
energy experiencing this.
And now, I'm feeling
the living female.
I'm seeing this tall dead man
putting his hands
inside their heads.
[man] What exactly
is he doing when he
puts his hands in heads?
He's manipulating them.
Controlling them.
Probably turning them
against each other.
They're feeling hate.
Lots of anger here.
And it doesn't go
away just 'cause
the dead dude went away.
You see, lots
of fighting going on.
He's [bleep] with them.
[Steve] Okay, so Heather,
I spoke with Mom and Dad today
and explain to me
what's going on here.
-it seems pretty intense.
-[Heather] Yeah.
I just get an overwhelming
feeling of, like,
dark, sadness, anger
and then it just fills you,
the whole house feels dark.
So, home's not a happy
place, like it should be.
No, it's not,
it's a sad, dark place.
Talking to your Mom, she said,
you're having some
anger issues.
Yeah, definitely whatever is
in this house is affecting me.
Okay, Heather, so tell me
about your experiences.
I'm constantly having
the feeling of being watched
around the entire house.
You get a sense
you're being watched
in a curious way or,
like, a creepy way?
It just feels like,
a negative energy
that's always following
you around everywhere.
Especially, the basement,
which I no longer
go down there anymore
as I used to.
All right, so, what else?
I heard a man's
voice at night,
was about to go to sleep and
it was, like, : at night.
I closed my eyes and I heard,
"What the hell?"
It was right in my ears
as if someone had,
-like, leaned over and
whispered that in my ear.
-Right.
So, I had gotten up, turned on
my light, opened up my blinds,
no one was outside.
Was this voice threatening?
It almost seemed as if, like,
the voice was implying that
we were invading its space.
It wasn't happy in any way.
-And it was a male's voice?
-Yes.
It was a male's voice,
an older male.
Got anything else?
Last night, I saw
a tall shadow figure
standing over me in my room.
-[Steve] You worried
about that?
-[Heather] Yeah.
I don't really know what
it's capable of, what it is.
How far will it go.
It just an unsettling feeling.
Okay.
[Amy] That tall, dead guy
likes to come in here.
So, I think the living
are seeing him.
[man] Are they seeing
what you described earlier?
[Amy] Something very similar.
I'm not seeing him putting his
hands in anybody's heads
but he probably is.
So, Audry, I was talking
to Mom and Dad
about stuff going
on in this house
and they're pretty
concerned about you.
Are you experiencing
stuff everyday?
Yeah, a lot of stuff happens
in my bedroom back here.
[Steve] Let's talk about
some experiences.
I got whispered in my
ear when I was in bed
that, "I'm gonna k*ll you."
Okay, so, male, female?
Male.
Can you tell what kind of an
age he might have been?
Kinda like, your voice.
Like that, around that age.
Not too old, not too young.
-Okay, so, not a kid.
-Yeah, not a kid.
All right, anything else?
I saw apparition
of an old lady in white.
-Okay, where do you see it?
-By the coat rack.
-In the front hall?
-[Audry] Yeah.
-[Steve] Does she
ever say anything?
-[Audry] No.
She just stares.
She'll be there
and then she'll go away.
Let me ask you a question,
you're a teenager, right?
-Yes.
-Are you smoking
anything while you're home?
[chuckles] No.
So, nothing's going on where
you maybe hallucinating.
-No.
-Okay.
What else you got going on?
I was paralyzed in
my bed with fear.
I woke up and then there
was a shadow figure
to the left of me.
[Steve] Can you describe them?
Just a tall man,
he was all black.
[Steve] Mom think
you have abilities
and you may be attracting
some of the dead here.
Yeah.
How do you feel about
having these abilities?
I'm not a fan.
I don't like, having to
see all that stuff.
Especially, at ,
it's a lot to take on.
[Amy]
[bleep]. It's happening.
I feel, like, blocked.
[man] What kind of
block do you mean?
I think it's the living person
is like, blocked.
[man] Like, stopping you from
getting anything you mean?
[Amy] Yeah.
I don't feel safe
in this area.
This tall, dead guy keeps
moving back and forth
between all of the bedrooms.
There's physical interaction.
I did see that one
of his hands coming down
and choking a living woman.
So, this person is,
like, hyperventilating
and can't move, can't scream.
Nothing, eyes wide open.
Oh, my God.
And he's laughing,
he's laughing.
And then he puts
the hand in the head
and then it's... ooh,
bad thoughts, bad thoughts.
Wouldn't mind, you know,
if she k*lled herself though.
'Cause he would
try to keep her here.
You know, he would.
[Steve] So, I made all my
usual calls when I got to town
and I just heard back
from a genealogist
who found something big.
Turns out, the son
of a previous owner
of my client's land
hung himself
right on the property.
I'm heading over to meet
with her now to find out
exactly what happened.
All right, so before we
get to the su1c1de,
what do we know
about this family?
Well, the Pierce family
was the first family
-to own your
client's property.
-Okay.
They purchased
the property in .
Alpheus Pierce
was -years-old,
he was from upstate
New York area.
Moved here and married
his wife, Adeline,
who was also a New Yorker.
Why did he come here?
For farming.
This area had just opened up,
lot of people were purchasing
property at the time.
Pretty much looked a lot
like, what we see here.
Okay, so when they
were on my client's land,
did they come with children
or did they have kids
once they get here,
what's the story?
They definitely tried to have
children but weren't able to.
Okay, so the two
of them were working
this farm by themselves,
I guess, they gotta hire
people to help out?
They have servants, they have
other people that we see
and show up on the
census records over time.
-Okay.
-On , however,
we actually see a child,
he's -years-old,
so he just kinda shows up.
[Steve] He just shows up.
[Cheri] His name was
William Franklin Kelly.
They did call him Frank.
Okay, so he wasn't a Pierce?
He wasn't a Pierce,
not biologically.
Did they ever wind
up adopting him?
They did. We found
records when he was
that they did
legally adopt him.
[Steve] All right, so when do
things start to go downhill?
In January of ,
Alpheus dies of a long
and painful illness
in the family home
at the age of .
Okay, so what happens next?
Frank becomes overwhelmed
with the responsibilities
of the farm.
Took out some loans, got into
some financial troubles.
So, I can see
where this is going.
The pressure was too much.
Ultimately, one day,
February th, ,
he tells his wife that
he's gonna go out
and get some fire wood.
and that she won't
she him again.
He hung himself
with his horse reins
from a tree on his property.
He was when he d*ed.
Here's an article about that.
So, now we got poor Adeline
who lost her adopted son
to su1c1de,
her husband's dead.
She's stuck with the property
and this guy's bills.
Yeah, with all of the debt
that he incurred,
Adeline ultimately became
responsible for that.
And she's got to be elderly
at this point, right?
She is. She dies actually two
years after Frank's su1c1de
at the age of of pneumonia.
So, listening to this
whole story from you,
kinda says to me that
Adeline had a tough life.
I would say, she did, yeah.
[Amy] I am in a kitchen
and I'm watching a woman
and she's cooking.
I think she was a housewife
who lived here.
It's the same dead
woman I saw earlier
who was crying and depressed.
And I heard su1c1de.
They're showing me
somebody hanging.
My [bleep] neck hurts.
[Steve] My old friend
journalist, Lou Hebert,
just called.
He did some digging and says
there was a ruthless
Mafia boss who
lived in the area.
And it turns out,
one of his likely victims
lived right near Holly
and Randy's house.
Well, Lou, thanks for
helping me out yet again
on another case.
All right, so first off,
who is this Mafia boss?
His name was Anthony Thomas.
Now, he's a career criminal.
He first made headlines
back in .
That's when he was
arrested for m*rder.
Okay, so now he's
charged with one m*rder.
He's only, like,
-years-old at the time,
there's a picture
of him right there.
All right, so he was
already an animal at .
Yeah and so the judge
gives him life
but unfortunately, life meant
only years for him.
And by ,
He's back out on
the streets, he's released.
[Steve] Is he reformed
at this point
or is he back to
what he was doing?
He picks up where he left off,
he's running prostitutes
and he's into debt collection.
In fact, he gets
the nickname, Shrieky.
And this is because of
the sounds that were issued
from the people that were
on his collections list.
-Okay, so this kid
was not a joke.
-No.
[Amy] That tall,
dead guy is here.
There have been deaths.
And then he pointed
to himself and he said,
"Me." Himself.
Um and two others
that he was not
specific about.
I just kept feeling, like,
this guy might have
caused more deaths
when he was alive.
He goes like, "Bet you would
like to know who I am."
And then he just
started laughing.
You mentioned on the phone
that he k*lled someone
near my client's house.
Who was this guy?
The guy's name
is Joseph Bozied.
He's -years-old.
He runs a truck part shop
in Shelby township.
-Okay.
-Now, in the late s,
Anthony Shrieky Thomas
start paying regular visits
to Bozied.
All right, so this guy,
Bozied,
-is in bed with Mafia
at this point.
-Mmm-hmm.
When and how does this guy,
Bozied, get whacked?
On the morning
of December sixth, ,
Bozied's gotta go to
work just like normal,
goes outside, gets
in his El Camino
and boom.
It explodes when he
turns on the ignition.
He dies right there
in his own driveway.
The wreckage was scattered
for hundreds of feet.
The blast was reportedly heard
as far as two miles away.
How far was this blast
from my client's property?
Less than a mile.
And this was not
some amateur job.
It had all the earmarks
and characteristics
of a professional hit.
So much so
that the FBI gets
involved in the case.
They start honing in
on a Shrieky Thomas.
But they never can
really quite develop
the evidence they need,
so the case goes cold
and it's still cold
to this day.
Now, whatever happened
with Shrieky?
He d*ed here in Detroit
at the age of .
I've heard a lot of wise guy
nicknames growing up.
Shrieky is a really
interesting nickname
but people must have
[bleep] their pants
-when they saw this
guy coming.
-[chuckles]
With a name like that, right?
[Amy] There's like, a guy.
He's like, on the ground.
Like, I don't know what
the [bleep] happened to him
but he's like,
messed up or something.
[engine starts]
Maybe, Italian looking.
I'm getting pain, some pain,
I'm getting some pain.
[man] Is he dead?
Yeah, it was quick.
This guy knows who
is attacking him
which now makes me suspect
tall, rail thin dude
of being a m*rder*r.
Like, he's like, "Oh, God,
help me get up.
Oh, God, help me get up.
Oh, help me, help me,
help me get up.
Oh, God. Oh, God."

[Steve] So far,
I've got a woman
who's afraid her children
and her marriage are in danger
on a property where
a man committed su1c1de.
But I wanna see if
there's anything else.
Searching through
the archives,
I find a deadly plane crash
that happened close to
Randy and Holly's house.
So, I reached out to
a local historian,
who knows all
about this story.
She says the reason
the plane went down
is a case of good
intentions gone bad.
So, Karin, thanks for helping
me out with this case.
I mean, it's a strange and sad
story at the same time.
Let's talk about the pilot,
who was he?
So, the victim was
a young, -year-old guy
by the name of David Opie.
He lived with his parents
here in Shelby township.
About , feet
from the house
that you're looking into.
What else do we
know about him?
He was a mail carrier
for the post office
and he had
a passion for flying.
In fact, he just completed
hours of flight school
and he was now
allowed to fly solo.
All right, hours,
this kid is still a rookie.
I mean, what happened?
So, it was December th, ,
when David set off on
his second solo flight
and he circled over
the neighborhood.
He told his Dad, he was
gonna fly over the house
and wave to him.
And unfortunately,
this very special moment
between these two turned
out to be very tragic.
Do we know what went wrong?
David's father was
standing in the yard
watching the plane approach
and witnesses said
that the engine
sputtered and d*ed
and that's when the plane
start plummeting toward Earth.
Here's an article on it.
Do we know what
caused the accident?
David was just a novice pilot
and he was flying too low
and too slow for this
and he wasn't able to recover.
What a shame.
Here's a photo
of the wreckage.
Wow, what a mess, huh?
I couldn't imagine what this
poor man
must have went through,
someone to do a nice
thing for him and then
he had to watch
him die, shame.
[Amy] There is definitely
a male down here.
The living would see him.
To me he looks young.
Very dead looking.
[man] What does that mean?
He's just like a blue, green
can't close his mouth anymore.
His eyes are like,
really sunken.
Like, he doesn't
have any eyeballs.
Looks like
the 's or 's.
[man] Do you know how he d*ed?
I think maybe
he k*lled himself.
I saw several disturbing
things on my walk.
But the tall,
dead man tormenting
the living in their bedroom
concerns me the most.
What I saw was a male
on the left side of the bed.
And on the ceiling,
you can see this cylinder
with, like, a black
jacket on it, okay.
The legs, they're really thin,
very dark black and round.
The head is gigantic.
It's a skull.
It was just staring
down at this man.
So, the torso is a little
bit shorter than that.
Amy, is this what you saw?
Yes, that's what I saw.
[Steve] Now that Amy
and I have completed
our investigations,
we are ready to reveal
our findings to each other
and our clients
for the first time.
So guys,
I'd like you to meet Amy.
She'll be doing the reveal
from one of your bedrooms,
so she could focus on your
case and the dead
without any distractions.
Amy, meet Holly
and her husband, Randy.
They lived here with
their two daughters.
This is Audry, she's .
And next to her
is Heather, who's .
They believe that
whatever is here
is ripping their family apart
and if we can't find
them a solution tonight,
they're not sure
they're gonna make it.
Amy may have some
questions for you,
if not, she'll tell us
about her walk.
The first thing I saw was
a deceased woman,
she indicated that
she was a housewife.
Then I heard her crying.
I could feel her depression.
I heard the word
su1c1de around her.
And then she did show
me someone hanging.
The thing that really
worries me about her
is that she has connected
with a female in this house.
The way she is doing this
is she's holding
that female's hand
and linking in with her.
Because of that, this female
could be suffering from
severe depression
and suicidal thoughts.
Amy, you should know,
everyone in the house
-is feeling depressed.
-Okay.
Yeah, I'm usually a very
energetic person
but when I'm here, very sad.
Anything with Heather?
[Holly] She gets
bouts of depression
where I'm fearful.
She's who I saw holding
hands with this dead woman.
She's a psychic empath,
so she is gonna
feel everything.
And I think that's why
this dead woman
kind of went on to her
because she wants to purge
the pain from her soul.
So, that's a big problem.
I'm worried about her.
Yeah, I'm worried
about somebody
taking control of her.
You said a depressed
housewife, right?
su1c1de and somebody hanging?
So, I think I know who you
might be talking about.
Now, a woman named Adeline
Pierce used to live here.
Her husband, Alpheus,
bought this property
for farming back in .
During her time
on the property,
Adeline experienced
a lot of tragedy.
For starters, she and Alpheus
weren't able to have
children of their own.
Now, the two
of them eventually
ended up adopting a son,
a kid who went by
the name of Frank.
Things went pretty well until
Alpheus d*ed in .
Frank took over
running the farm
but unfortunately,
he wasn't up to the job.
And in , he was
so deep in debt
and got so depressed about it,
he found a tree on the
property and he hung himself.
So, now Adeline must
have been devastated
but it got worse.
Three years later,
she d*ed broken hearted
on the property
at the age of .
Oh, interesting.
[Steve] Okay, what else?
When I went in to the first
bedroom on the left
-[Steve] And that's
Audry's room.
-[Amy] Okay.
What I found in there
was that it was
energetically locked
and I do believe
this is coming
from the living
person unintentionally.
Probably for protection sake,
they just put out this
impenetrable bubble
in their room,
so nothing can get in,
I couldn't get a read.
[Steve] So, Amy,
it's time to talk about
one of the biggest reasons
we were called in.
These guys think
Audry has abilities
and might be attracting
a lot of the paranormal
activity in the house.
She has told me, she can
see them all day long.
You think she has
abilities though?
-Audry?
-[Amy] Yeah.
She's a physical medium.
You told me the reason
why you think Audry,
all of a sudden started
really having abilities.
Tell Amy what happened.
Audry was at track
and she was running, she fell
and she hit her head
and she became unconscious.
After that, she would come
to me on a regular basis
and she said,
"I see dead people."
You think that injury
had something to do
with her abilities coming out.
It's a big possibility,
trauma can induce sudden
awakenings, yeah.
She had visions
that I will not be
alive when she
graduates next year.
I went through big
surgeries this year,
I'm sure it scared her.
She's been sick a lot
and surgeries.
What?
It's just not normal
what happens to me.
There's a reason for
your health problems
and it's that you
have abilities too.
You're a psychic
empath healer.
So, healers very much take
on everybody's emotions,
can experience pain
and pleasure from others.
You know, all of these kind of
things on an energetic level.
It scares me.
[Steve] What else, Amy?
[Amy] The biggest issue here
is this male that
I encountered.
To me, he was
very threatening.
You guys would hear this guy
because he does talk a lot.
So, can you tell Amy what
Heather heard in her ear?
It's the man
screamed at her ear,
"What the hell?"
And same thing
happened to Audry,
something else
was said, right?
Yes, there was
something in her room,
a man's voice said,
"I'm going to k*ll you."
All right, so do you get any
sense of who this dead,
tall guy was when
he was alive?
[Amy] I think this
guy was violent.
He kept telling me he
had never k*lled anyone.
Personally, I don't
believe him.
I saw a male
who was lying out on
the ground in the garage,
he d*ed a pretty
dang, painful death.
He had, like, kinda
crazy dark hair,
pretty thick, kinda
looked Italian.
I'd put him maybe,
in his s, late s.
Uh, might be a long sh*t
but something came
up in my research.
It involves a Mafia hitman
by the name of
Anthony 'Shrieky' Thomas.
Now, when he was -years-old,
in , he got
convicted of m*rder.
Now, for some reason, he only
wind up doing years.
But he gets out, picks up
right where he left off.
He got back into loan
sharking, prostitution.
Now, it's possible, one of his
victims was a -year-old guy
by the name of Joseph Bozied,
a local mechanic.
Now, he had a successful
truck parts business
here in Shelby township.
Shrieky made
regular visits there.
I'm guessing Bozied
had a chop shop.
Ah!
[Steve] Somehow,
the relationship turns sour.
On December sixth, ,
Bozied got into his car,
turned on the switch to
turn the car on, boom.
-He gets blown up.
-Oh, wow, okay.
[Steve] This happened less
than a mile from here.
Now, detectives did
zero in on Shrieky
but there wasn't enough
evidence to charge him.
Case remains cold to this day.
Now, I managed to track down
a picture of the victim,
Joe Bozied.
This is the victim.
This part is very
similar to me.
You think that the tall
guy that's here
was the one who k*lled him?
It's highly likely,
it might be him.
So, how would the living
see this tall k*ller?
The living here would see him
as a shadow type figure
up on their ceilings.
Now, everybody in the house
has seen shadow figures,
when I spoke to Audry,
she saw couple of them.
-Holly, you saw them too.
-Yes.
[Steve] Tell Amy.
I saw something come out
from Audry's room
and I looked, it was probably
about seven or eight feet tall
and it glided into
Heather's room.
Now, you saw something
by the staircase here.
[Randy] Yeah, it came
out of the bedroom
and there was this head
and shoulders black shadow
sticking out of the stairs
looking at me.
When I saw it,
it sh*t back down
on the stairs
and I just stood there froze.
I saw him putting his hand
into the living's heads.
He's manipulating them.
Controlling them.
Probably turning them
against each other.
They're feeling hate.
Lots of anger here.
So, I saw him doing
that to the male.
And I actually did have
a sketch done of what I saw.
Wow!
That might explain
some things.
You think, yeah.
-It's not easy to
look at, is it?
-Mmm-hmm.
Oh, wow.
[Randy] I get angry a lot.
I can't even talk
to him anymore.
He gets angry at everything.
It's not him. He's still
the man that I married.
But somebody
is taking over him.
You guys feel like,
your marriage is falling apart
because of all this.
I do.
So, Amy, Randy
is not the only one
suffering from mood swings.
Tell her about Heather.
[Randy] It's like,
she's possessed.
She just turns into rage.
She will yell and just
whatever she can do to just
hurt me to the core.
Now, how do you
say those things
to your Mom if you love her.
That's hard for a mother
to hear.
Of course it is.
Just don't know how
to protect 'em from
the pain that they're feeling.
So now, Amy,
is all the fighting
in the house from that guy?
[Amy] I think
that's him. Yeah.
His main goal was to turn
you guys against each other.
I can't fight him
'cause I can't see him
and I can't do
anything to him.
[Holly] I don't know how
to deal with this.
[Steve] Listen, you guys
are a great family
and it pisses me off
that this tall, k*ller guy
is trying to rip
you guys apart.
Now, we're gonna find out
if we can fix things
and if so, what's it
gonna take to do that.
For that answer, I'm gonna
turn it over to Amy.
There's going to be
a few things,
that obviously
need to be done.
First, there will be
a female sensitive
and a male medium
who will come.
The female sensitive
will sit down and talk
to each of the
girls individually.
Then she will cut
cords on them
or any attachments
that they may have
with any of the dead.
And while she's doing that,
the male medium
will begin to move on the
troubled dead that are here.
So, he'll start with
the male in the garage
and then the female.
[Steve] So, you're talking
about Adeline Pierce.
-[Amy] Yes.
-Okay.
Then the male medium will be
locking in on this bad guy
and getting out of the house.
Once he's out of the house,
I would like both of the girls
to go into individual
psychotherapy counseling.
As well as, I would
like you guys
to go for family
and marriage counseling.
But they can stay here,
once they do all this stuff
that's to say, right, Amy?
Yeah, absolutely.
All in all, it sounds
like, it's... good news.
-Yeah, it can be fixed.
-Mmm-hmm.
And we can be at peace again.
Yeah, it's great.
I know there's something we
can do now to get rid of them.
It's a huge relief because
when we got married
it was gonna be forever.
Finding out from
both of you that
we have a chance now,
that it isn't
Randy not wanting to
be married anymore.
'Cause I really thought
he didn't want to be
married to me anymore.
I feel so much relieved that
we can make this work again.
It'd be nice not
to argue anymore
and have happier time.
Getting our girls back to
being safe and happy
and just as all I just,
I can't even imagine
feel like to walk in here
and feel love and peace again.
Yeah, well, that's all
we want for you guys.
I'm glad we could help.
Thank you so much.
[Amy] Holly, Randy
and their daughters
have suffered long enough.
I really hope they
contact a sensitive
to cut the cords they have
formed with the dead.
And a medium to remove
the dead from their house.
If they do that
and seek out counselling,
I'm confident,
they can live in their home
peacefully for many
years to come.
