HORROR ON CHASE STREET: The Smurl Family’s Thirteen Years of Hell, Hauntings, and Demonic Possession

For thirteen years, the Smurl family reported being terrorized by invisible forces in their Pennsylvania duplex – entities that threw their German Shepherd against walls, sexually assaulted both Jack and Janet, and somehow knew to hide whenever priests came to investigate. The Catholic Church sent multiple clergy who witnessed nothing, the Warrens recorded hours of supposed evidence, and neighbors threw bricks at the house during the media circus, but no one could definitively prove whether the Smurls were victims of a genuine haunting or something else entirely.
