Conjuring The Smurl Hauntings

from Talk Is Jericho · host Chris Jericho

What really happened to the Smurl family, and the real-life Pennsylvania haunting that inspired The Conjuring: Last Rites? Paranormal investigators Rob, Dave and Jesse from Hometown Ghost Stories return to reveal the terrifying true story Hollywood didn’t tell. You’ll hear about the chilling manifestations that plagued the Smurl family for over 14 years - moving furniture, demonic assaults, spectral attacks, flapping wings, and even a succubus encounter that defies belief. The team also breaks down Ed & Lorraine Warren’s real involvement, the Catholic church’s strange refusal to help, and the evidence that this haunting followed the Smurls from their home to their campsite… and beyond. Plus, a recounting of Rowdy Roddy Piper’s real-life ghost story involving his late friend Adrian Adonis.   Hometown Ghost Stories is live on YouTube every Tuesday at 9pm ET: https://www.youtube.com/hometownghoststories 📸 Instagram: @hometownghoststories  Watch this episode on YouTube! https://www.youtube.com/ChrisJerichoFozzy 👍 Don’t forget to Like, Subscribe, and hit the 🔔 to stay updated on new episodes!
