In 2012, a single mother and her three children were removed from their Gary, Indiana home after state caseworkers, nurses, and police officers filed official reports describing things they couldn't explain, including a 9-year-old boy who allegedly walked backward up a wall to the ceiling in front of multiple witnesses.

Three exorcisms were performed. The Department of Child Services opened a case. The house was eventually purchased by a paranormal investigator and later demolished out of concern for public safety.

This is one of the most documented alleged possession cases in modern American history. In this episode, we'll go through everything: the family, the officials, the church, and the questions that still don't have clean answers.

Believe it or don't. The paperwork is real.
