Check out Buzz Killers every Sunday for new episodes!

 

In episode forty three we discuss the Smurl Family Haunting. From 1971 to 1987 the Smurl family lived in a house of horrors in Pittston, PA. The activity got so bad that they eventually contacted Ed & Lorraine Warren and a highly publicized investigation took place. The Warrens were able to confirm that their house was indeed haunted, but would they ever be able to escape the entities' wrath? 

 

For this episode we drank Sixth Sense Syrah! Check out the Michael David Winery website to see their entire wine selection.
