Inherited Hauntings

The Oily Haunting That Made Police Believe: The Demon House of Gary

Lindsey Callan and Nancy Callan Episode 25

What kind of haunting makes cops, priests, and even paranormal rock star Zak Bagans run for the hills? Welcome to Gary, Indiana; home of the infamous Demon House where a mother and her three children allegedly faced an infestation so dark it crawled across the ceiling, left oil dripping from the walls, and required three separate exorcisms to calm the chaos.

This isn’t your average ghost story. It’s a documented nightmare backed by police reports, social workers, and one terrified priest. The case was so disturbing that Bagans himself bought the house — and then demolished it — claiming the evil inside was too strong to contain.

Join Mom Nancy and daughter Lindsey as they break down the chilling evidence, the skeptics’ takes, and the lingering question: was this truly a portal to hell… or just the most cursed Airbnb in America?

Buckle up — because in Gary, Indiana, even the drywall was possessed.

THE SCARIEST STORIES ARE THE ONES THAT ARE TRUE.
