Explore the real true story behind the Enfield Poltergeist, a possibly true ghost story intertwined with the Warrens’ paranormal case files, and the basis for the movie The Conjuring 2. Learn the true story behind the claims of Ed & Lorraine Warren, famous "paranormal investigators" slash "demonologists." You don't need to have seen any of the Conjuring films to listen. Did Janet Hodgson pull off a hoax? Did the Warrens really save the day? Were the Hodgson kids really possessed by a Poltergeist named Bill? You decide.
