    IN THIS EPISODE: The ax murders in Villisca, Iowa. The Defeo murders made famous by the Amityville Horror. Two crime scenes where no one heard a thing. The same thing happened in the charming little area of Churchill’s Grove… a story not so famous, but just as disturbing. (No One Heard a Thing – The Simon Peter Nelson Murders) *** Lily Dale… where Spiritualism is celebrated and practiced more than just the spooky months. Populated by hundreds of psychics and mediums, it has become a kind of tourist attraction for those seeking a psychic reading. (Welcome to Lily Dale) *** Bowden Road in Huntsville, Texas seems to have no end of paranormal activity and strange experiences – particularly the section of road that leads straight into Martha Chapel Cemetery. Bowden Road is considered so haunted, locals have come to call it Demons Road. (Demons Road of Huntsville)
