    In our previous episode, we examined the story of Bill and Liz Rich, whose lives were turned upside down by supernatural activity after moving into a remote Welsh farmhouse. Having suffered years of torment, the unexpected arrival of a spiritualist seemed to herald an end to their suffering. But as they would soon discover, their battle was only just beginning.

    My dads former business partner had a sister (Anita) whom lived in Tulsa with her husband and young child. Around 2012-2013 they purchased a home which the previous owner had lost to foreclosure. The man had lost his wife and eventually his business and could no longer afford making payments. Nobody knew what happened to him after the foreclosure. When Anita and her family moved in they said they always sensed a presence in the home. At nights they would hear strange noises, things would be moved around, and their dog would growl at the walls for no reason. Turned out the man had built a secret room in the walls and had never left. They might have never found out if the wall plug he had connected a portable heater didn’t burn out. She thought it was a ghost and started to feel like she was going crazy. One of the craziest stories I’ve ever heard.

      @@lonwof2105 Exactly if motivated enough neighbors, townspeople, disgruntled farmhands etc could set out to drive people insane to drive them out. If never solved and some details being fabricated some stories could morph over time into supernatural tales. Always best to keep that in mind. As far as the man I also had a million questions. From what I heard he had about 6 months time. He built it away from the bedrooms. He had sound proof insulation. He had a secret exit door so he could go in and out for supplies presumably when people were sleeping or out of the house. I got the sense he wasn’t interesting in spying on whoever moved in he just didn’t want to leave his house. They said the situation was similar to the movie “Inside Man” with Denzel. He took a big room downstairs and sectioned off 1/3. Or maybe added 1/3 not sure.

      There is a lot more to the story than what was covered here. The son is doing fine as is the daughter. The mother occasionally gives interviews about what she went through and what she knows of what her husband went through. It could easily fill another 2 or 3 episodes. The mother was possessed by one of the demons for a short time. The husband was visited by a succubus nearly every night. The kids playroom had an old lady appear in a corner so often that the kids actually thought she lived there with them. Their farm animals would be found deceased, some without cause, others mutilated like ranchers occasionally find their cattle, strange lights appeared over their fields from time to time. Basically, they got the Skin Walker Ranch experience. The wife has said in several interviews that she felt the creature that walked out of the wall and down the hall was not a ghost, but a demon. She described its presence as 'feeling pure evil'
      She also said that the reason they didn't up and move is because the UK was going through one of the worst housing slumps in its history so going out and buying another home was not an option as they were not able to pay 2 mortgages.

      A teenager / guy in his early 20s who's dad is sets him up with a flat away from the farm and off on his own in the city? Lawrence apparently lacked what my grandfather would have called "wild oats," as in, the type young men are inclined to sow. I had to pay several hundred dollars a month for that kind of freedom at about that age, and it was worth every penny. Sure, being told one has to leave is different than choosing to do so of one's own accord, but I still think Lawrence had the wrong perspective on the situation.

      There seem to be many mundane factors which attract malevolent spirits. You can't afford to move so they have a captive audience. Electricity to fuel their activity. A lot of Missing 411 disappearances occur near BOTH granite outcroppings AND water sources. Granite has unique electromagnetic properties and as we know, water is an excellent conductor of electricity. But schizophrenia is very common amongst economically oppressed demographic groups, such as the Irish of yore. Such people are convenient hosts for spirit infestations because they can't afford to insulate themselves from all manner of abuse, otherworldly or otherwise.
      I say, college is usually a bad investment for those who were underprivileged to begin with. At least in the US. Skyrocketing tuition costs are simultaneous with skyrocketing enrollment. The prevalence of college degrees dilutes the prestige and marketability of each and every degree. Coupled with student loan debt, the cost/benefit ratio rarely justifies this investment.

I've got one of his books actually called Ghost Hunter, and he appeared on the show Ghosthunters (UK series and not the U.S one) in which he helps relieve an RAF solider killed at a base outside of war time but who would appear to a female officer and then suddenly disappear. The female officer said it appeared to her a few times and only to her. It's really fascinating and Eddie was the one of the first people who made me take notice and respect the paranormal world.

    If Ghostbusters has taught me anything, those power surges and power drainage incidents are a result of ghosts who possess Electrokinesis, the ability to drain electrical charge. According to Tobin's Spirit Guide, most people think this ability is gained after a ghost is directly struck by lightning, but Tobin firmly believes it's a learned ability.

      Very true. However, since there was a satanic worshipers located near the household would suggest a low-level portal to the afterlife was opened. That type of paranormal phenomenon could have caused the appropriate amount of interference within an electrical grid.

    I also can't get my head around the fact that it appears they did have somewhere else to go since she wanted to move out but he didn't. Why on earth would you remain somewhere that was causing you and your family such grief?? Mental illness, sheer pigheadedness? Whatever the case, it destroyed the family and his son took the brunt of it.
    Hopefully the rest of the family are OK and the son has found happiness.

      Agreed. Not every incident involving hauntings has to involve Satanists. My theory is that it was the spirit of a previous tenant who didn’t like the fact an Englishman had moved into their home. The spirit might have viewed the family as interlopers and outsiders, which technically they were due to the father being an Englishman and there being a history of tension between the English and the Welsh dating back to the Middle Ages alongside with the family not having any obvious roots to the community. The irony is that these series of events could have been solved if the family had actually done their research and tried to become part of the community.

    (Sorry about the giant comment in advance!): As someone who is a "soft skeptic" open to evidence, while also having a long fascination with and love of paranormal stories, this case feels extremely interesting... in any case, it certainly doesn't seem "fake" (something far rarer than misinterpretation, imo). However, if I had to guess, I'd say this case is a perfect example of multiple environmental and psychological factors compiling to push everyone over the edge; the stress of the situation with Laurence (who probably struggled with hitting puberty while dealing with a new family situation and a totally new house, hence his reticent behaviour), the bizarre behaviour of the farm animals, and what I personally suspect was a carbon monoxide leak or something tied to the faulty electricity (certainly the behavioural changes, forgetting object placement like that knife, and shadowy visual and audible hallucinations are all very strong indicators of carbon monoxide) compounded in Bill having a complete breakdown, thus dragging the rest of his rightly alarmed family down with him. A truly fascinating case, told with the gravitas and charm we all love from Bedtime Stories!!

      I think it said on the The Witch Farm podcast (a podcast about the case) that the paints that Bill used as an artist could have created hallucinations or mental problems as there was lead and all kinds of stuff in paint back in the day. I used to be quite common for people to have problems after using paints for a long time.

      The issue with that is the fact if we take spirits/ghosts and demons seriously. Then we see there are very different types and haunting.
      We also know mirrors are powerful and act like portals, and water is very powerful, giving these anomalies more strength.
      Ley lines are also powerful things that many say power these type of things, interestingly enough these are also linked to a lot of other mysteries and even aliens. They are powerful energy fields that are linked and travel all over the world. The pyramids, stone henge, aztec temples and such are located on these lines and line up.

    It doesn't account for what the children and wife saw. But then again. Why no pictures? There was some BBC footage that recorded a scream, but that was destroyed.

      @mirandagoldstine8548 Před 7 měsíci +1

      Agreed. There is a long history of tension between the English and the Welsh and the father was English. As to why the wife and the kids were affected as well…my best guess is because she, being of Welsh descent, was married to an Englishman which probably brought out bad blood and the kids were half English which might have also called bad blood. And this is why you should try to learn as much about a place’s history and culture as possible so you don’t anger anyone. At least that’s my philosophy. It’s worked so far for me.
