Description
Description
In September 1934, local pastor Walter Howell attempted to end the rumors of a haunted house outside Hopewell in Greenup County by spending the night there with just a Bible for company. But by the end of a night full of mysterious noises and voices, furniture moving on its own, and other oddities, Howell became a believer instead. This film on the haunting was based on an interview with Howell recorded in 1953 by paranormal investigator Simon Coots.
