00:00:59,040 --> 00:01:00,040 They're so cute though. 16 00:01:00,040 --> 00:01:01,040 Thank you. 17 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:02,040 You got those. 18 00:01:02,040 --> 00:01:03,040 You got those. 19

00:01:17,120 So everyone, I hope you've had a great week. 24 00:01:17,120 --> 00:01:21,320 I know it's and we're recording this again on a Wednesday so don't know what the rest 25 00:01:21,320 --> 00:01:26,640 of the week looks like yet but I do know that half of the week has been a lot so far for 26 00:01:26,640 --> 00:01:34,440 a lot of people and of course, you know, violence and terrible tragedy strikes every day. 27 00:01:34,440 --> 00:01:38,880 But sometimes you realize that, you know, these things happen even in the closest of 28 00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:44,440 proximity which is just, okay, I'm sorry, boo ruined my mom in the background. 29 00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,440 She really just ran around. 30 00:01:46,440 --> 00:01:47,440 Maybe didn't hear that. 31 00:01:47,440 --> 00:01:49,600 Sorry, I got sidetracked. 32 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:52,240 But yeah, so things happen in the world all the time. 33 00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:53,240 We know this. 34 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:54,240 It's not new. 35 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:59,840 But yeah, again, some things happen a little closer to us than we realize and it just really 36 00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:08,760 strikes a vein and specifically just in the world of true crime here in Michigan, unfortunately, 37 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:13,880 I want to say it was on Monday, Monday night. 38 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:20,520 There was a gunman who had killed three Michigan State University students and left five others 39 00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:29,800 in critical condition and he had plans apparently to target two schools in New Jersey. 40 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,240 As well, which is kind of crazy. 41 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:34,960 The shooter's name was Anthony McRae. 42 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:40,680 He was 43 years old and I guess he had lived in the area of Lansing, which is where the 43 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:45,520 school is, University, sorry, Michigan State University. 44 00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:51,800 And yeah, so he opened fire on Monday evening on two parts of the campus and he was later 45 00:02:51,800 --> 00:02:52,920 found dead. 46 00:02:52,920 --> 00:02:58,040 So this asshole, of course, like many had shot himself. 47 00:02:58,040 --> 00:03:02,680 He had self-infected gun wounds or gunshot wounds when they found him. 48 00:03:02,680 --> 00:03:04,920 And it's just terrible, terrible to think about. 49 00:03:04,920 --> 00:03:08,080 It's been sitting on my mind for the last couple of days now. 50 00:03:08,080 --> 00:03:13,680 I was watching the news feed when it all went down and it was just truly terrifying because 51 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:15,920 so many people have loved ones there. 52 00:03:15,920 --> 00:03:20,760 Many people have loved ones at any school, especially with the Idaho killings and with 53 00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:26,200 all the killings that happen at these schools, it's just so tragic to listen to. 54 00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:31,240 And the victims, the victims' names were, one was Ariel Anderson. 55 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:38,920 She graduated in 2021 from Gross Point North High School as well as the second victim who 56 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:40,640 was Brian Frazier. 57 00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:44,560 Again, he had graduated just in 2021. 58 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:49,880 And then the third victim was Alexandria Verner. 59 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,840 So Alexandria, she went to class in high school. 60 00:03:52,840 --> 00:03:59,240 I think she had just graduated actually last year, just literally not even a year ago. 61 00:03:59,240 --> 00:04:00,840 And unfortunately, he lost her life. 62 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:07,520 These kids, not saying anybody should lose their lives, but they were only going to school. 63 00:04:07,520 --> 00:04:10,240 They just went to school one day, they're in class or whatever. 64 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:17,440 And this gunman out of nowhere just comes out and just kills these innocent students. 65 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:26,280 It was literally so surreal in the most terrifying way because at my day job when I'm not doing 66 00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:31,720 this, I work with a lot of high school students and college students. 67 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:36,480 And I actually do have four college students that go to Michigan State and I was in contact 68 00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,800 with one of them the entire time. 69 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:43,960 And it was so terrifying to live it through her. 70 00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:44,960 Yeah. 71 00:04:44,960 --> 00:04:45,960 No. 72 00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:46,960 Wow. 73 00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:51,400 I'm going to say too, I'm sure you have a lot of people that work around that school. 74 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,680 I'm sorry, just go to that school in general. 75 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:59,440 And it's really eye-opening when, I mean, we see it on the news all the time, but of course 76 00:04:59,440 --> 00:05:04,680 when it happens somewhere that you're not far from, it really just hits you in a different 77 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:05,680 way. 78 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:06,680 You're like, whoa. 79 00:05:06,680 --> 00:05:11,360 Like, my mom and my brother were actually going to be there today on Wednesday, we're 80 00:05:11,360 --> 00:05:13,560 recording again. 81 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,080 And I was just so happy to think about like, I'm glad they weren't there on Monday night 82 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:21,280 when they were supposed to, like they were going to go on Wednesday, but had that happen 83 00:05:21,280 --> 00:05:23,960 tonight instead of on Monday? 84 00:05:23,960 --> 00:05:25,520 Oh my God. 85 00:05:25,520 --> 00:05:26,520 It's scary. 86 00:05:26,520 --> 00:05:32,240 It's my whole entire like stomach was just like turned upside down just watching the 87 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:33,240 news. 88 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:36,960 I was listening to like the police scanner the whole time and had the news pulled up 89 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:43,440 on the iPad, police came up on the phone and I was texting my associates and like it was 90 00:05:43,440 --> 00:05:45,200 just, it was a lot. 91 00:05:45,200 --> 00:05:46,200 That's for sure. 92 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:50,080 I couldn't even imagine what like, I mean, me and Simon were already feeling so many 93 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:51,080 emotions. 94 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:52,080 Sorry. 95 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:54,240 Me and Simon were already feeling so many emotions. 96 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:58,680 I could not imagine what it actually felt like to actually be there. 97 00:05:58,680 --> 00:06:00,200 It was definitely. 98 00:06:00,200 --> 00:06:01,200 Yeah. 99 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:02,200 Yeah. 100 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:03,360 That's for sure. 101 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:09,560 No, my heart goes out to all those students that are out there and that are just terrified. 102 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:17,480 I know a lot of people were talking about how another student had gone through another 103 00:06:17,480 --> 00:06:18,480 school shooting before. 104 00:06:18,480 --> 00:06:19,480 There were two. 105 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:20,480 There was one. 106 00:06:20,480 --> 00:06:21,480 Two. 107 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:22,480 Yeah. 108 00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:29,080 Was in the Oxford shooting in Michigan, which was, I think a little over a year ago, I think. 109 00:06:29,080 --> 00:06:32,080 And then there was one in the Sandy Hook shooting. 110 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:33,080 The Sandy Hook shooting. 111 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,080 A little over 10 years ago. 112 00:06:35,080 --> 00:06:37,080 And it's just. 113 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,080 Wow. 114 00:06:38,080 --> 00:06:39,080 That's insane. 115 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:47,400 I don't even want to fathom, but I also want to feel like I want to be there to like hurt 116 00:06:47,400 --> 00:06:51,400 with the other people that have to go through this just because it's just scary. 117 00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,800 The fact that you don't even know you could go to a movie theater. 118 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:56,480 You could go to school. 119 00:06:56,480 --> 00:06:59,480 You could go anywhere in the world and you would still have this problem. 120 00:06:59,480 --> 00:07:07,040 So really, when it comes to this kind of stuff, guys, protect each other the best you can, 121 00:07:07,040 --> 00:07:09,040 you know, look out for each other. 122 00:07:09,040 --> 00:07:15,840 If you or someone you know may have been around somebody or someone told you about someone 123 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:19,560 they know, that's just really just not right. 124 00:07:19,560 --> 00:07:21,400 Or they've talked about doing stuff like this. 125 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,120 Take it seriously, like overreact. 126 00:07:23,120 --> 00:07:25,320 It's better to overreact than underreact. 127 00:07:25,320 --> 00:07:30,160 And it's only going to get worse, unfortunately, in my opinion. 128 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,320 It doesn't seem to get any better throughout these years. 129 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,120 It seems like more and more and more and more and more of these. 130 00:07:36,120 --> 00:07:39,000 Sorry, we're getting frequency problems. 131 00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:42,040 We're getting more and more and more of these school shooters are just coming out of the 132 00:07:42,040 --> 00:07:43,040 woodworks. 133 00:07:43,040 --> 00:07:48,000 And obviously, we don't know how to, you don't know until it happens, right? 134 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:55,040 So the best that we can really do, in my opinion, is just again, really look out for each other. 135 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,040 Someone is not doing well mentally. 136 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,160 Look out for them. 137 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,440 Ask them how they're doing, you know, because we all need it. 138 00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:02,960 I know we do. 139 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:04,840 Not everyone can afford therapy. 140 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:07,200 It doesn't cover everyone's insurance. 141 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,560 So it's cool. 142 00:08:09,560 --> 00:08:10,560 I get it. 143 00:08:10,560 --> 00:08:16,360 Yeah, but our hearts go out to those families that were affected, especially the ones who 144 00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:21,240 did lose their lives, as well as the five other students who were injured, as well as 145 00:08:21,240 --> 00:08:28,320 the 40,000 plus students who had to experience that and live through that, as well as my 146 00:08:28,320 --> 00:08:32,480 four associates that I know were terrified. 147 00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:33,640 Our hearts definitely go out to you. 148 00:08:33,640 --> 00:08:36,960 We're definitely thinking about you guys still. 149 00:08:36,960 --> 00:08:37,960 And let's hope. 150 00:08:37,960 --> 00:08:40,520 Let's hope something like that doesn't happen again. 151 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:41,520 Yeah, definitely. 152 00:08:41,520 --> 00:08:45,800 I mean, I'm sure it's bound to happen, but definitely not for a long time. 153 00:08:45,800 --> 00:08:46,800 Hopefully a long time. 154 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:54,600 Of course, there's no real way to transition from this, but respectfully, we're going to 155 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,600 get into our stories for today. 156 00:08:56,600 --> 00:09:03,960 So today's stories that we'll be talking about are ghost stories of New Orleans. 157 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:04,960 I always wanted to go. 158 00:09:04,960 --> 00:09:06,520 My friend went recently. 159 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:07,520 Really? 160 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:08,520 It's not a fun year. 161 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:09,520 My grandma's there right now. 162 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:10,520 I'm jealous. 163 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:11,520 My grandma? 164 00:09:11,520 --> 00:09:12,520 Yeah, so I guess. 165 00:09:12,520 --> 00:09:13,520 I'm living it up. 166 00:09:13,520 --> 00:09:14,520 I know. 167 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,200 February 21st, if I'm not mistaken, I think it's the first day of Mardi Gras, but I think 168 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,200 that it kind of goes on all month. 169 00:09:20,200 --> 00:09:24,040 I didn't realize it was so early in the year. 170 00:09:24,040 --> 00:09:25,840 Yeah, it happens in February. 171 00:09:25,840 --> 00:09:32,080 So what's just another good reason to me was just like, oh, this is really good to just 172 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:36,240 kind of start this off or kick it off with that. 173 00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:41,360 And I've always heard spooky ghost stories coming from New Orleans and all the different 174 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:48,680 things that have happened there from ghosts of empires to murderers to everything and beyond. 175 00:09:48,680 --> 00:09:52,680 This is like super random, but isn't New Orleans like warm right now? 176 00:09:52,680 --> 00:09:53,680 Oh, I don't know. 177 00:09:53,680 --> 00:09:56,040 I feel like that's a good question. 178 00:09:56,040 --> 00:10:00,240 Every time I see like Mardi Gras, people are wearing like skippy little outfits and stuff. 179 00:10:00,240 --> 00:10:02,040 It looks like it's hot. 180 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:03,600 I'm like, I wonder what the... 181 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:06,000 Oh yeah, it's 75 right now. 182 00:10:06,000 --> 00:10:07,200 Can we go right now? 183 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:09,200 Can we please get there? 184 00:10:09,200 --> 00:10:11,680 Get there two hours and 30 minutes from Detroit. 185 00:10:11,680 --> 00:10:12,680 Oh. 186 00:10:12,680 --> 00:10:13,680 No, that's a fucking lie. 187 00:10:13,680 --> 00:10:14,680 Oh. 188 00:10:14,680 --> 00:10:15,680 No, that's so quick. 189 00:10:15,680 --> 00:10:16,680 Oh wait, it's a flight. 190 00:10:16,680 --> 00:10:22,240 Oh, it's only $150 for spirit for trying to be this. 191 00:10:22,240 --> 00:10:25,520 Hey, what's your opinion now? 192 00:10:25,520 --> 00:10:26,520 They're like, don't do it. 193 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:27,520 This is like 500. 194 00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:29,320 Hey, okay, there you go. 195 00:10:29,320 --> 00:10:30,320 That sounds more right. 196 00:10:30,320 --> 00:10:31,320 Yeah, maybe for 100. 197 00:10:31,320 --> 00:10:32,680 We'll risk it. 198 00:10:32,680 --> 00:10:38,360 We will eventually take our little cute trip to New Orleans, but until then we'll be saving 199 00:10:38,360 --> 00:10:40,400 on Beyonce tickets, so it's okay. 200 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:41,400 At least I will. 201 00:10:41,400 --> 00:10:44,680 I'll be saving for my Mustang. 202 00:10:44,680 --> 00:10:45,680 Oh, okay. 203 00:10:45,680 --> 00:10:47,680 I didn't know that. 204 00:10:47,680 --> 00:10:48,680 You better get that Mustang girl. 205 00:10:48,680 --> 00:10:49,680 No, I have the Mustang. 206 00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:51,560 Oh, you do, don't you? 207 00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:54,000 I'm thinking in my head like a new Mustang. 208 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,840 Like a new brand new like 2023 shit or something. 209 00:10:56,840 --> 00:10:59,320 No, your Mustang is cute as hell. 210 00:10:59,320 --> 00:11:00,840 It's about to be finished. 211 00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:03,400 Let me tell you, Brie has like five cars. 212 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:04,400 I'm like girl. 213 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:06,400 My family has a lot of cars. 214 00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:07,400 I have two though. 215 00:11:07,400 --> 00:11:10,000 It's a little unnecessary, but it's for a good reason. 216 00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:14,920 And I love my low project car and she's almost done and I'm so excited to drive her in the 217 00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:15,920 summertime. 218 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:18,520 Oh, we out here with the roof on. 219 00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,520 Hey, what's going on? 220 00:11:20,520 --> 00:11:28,200 No, so sorry guys, a little off topic, but yeah, so that kind of ties us back all in 221 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,560 with the New Orleans topic. 222 00:11:30,560 --> 00:11:31,560 Right? 223 00:11:31,560 --> 00:11:33,000 No, I'm totally kidding. 224 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:36,000 The story initially began in 1831. 225 00:11:36,000 --> 00:11:40,720 A man by the name of Edward Dufault Sat, which what a name. 226 00:11:40,720 --> 00:11:42,040 That's a mouthful. 227 00:11:42,040 --> 00:11:43,040 Dufault Sat. 228 00:11:43,040 --> 00:11:44,600 Shout out to the Dufault Sat. 229 00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:48,640 If you have listeners and your name is Dufault Sat, hit us up. 230 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:53,880 So Edward Dufault Sat has slowed his unfinished home to a couple. 231 00:11:53,880 --> 00:12:01,840 Dr. Leonard Louis Nicholas Lalari, what a name, and his wife, Delfine Lalari. 232 00:12:01,840 --> 00:12:08,320 But what this story is really about is his wife, Marie Delfine Lalari, who some may also 233 00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:15,480 recognize because she had been adopted, sorry, adopted, adapted into a character on season 234 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:19,800 three of American Horror Story Coven portrayed by Miss Katha Bates. 235 00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:21,120 Oh, we love Katha Bates. 236 00:12:21,120 --> 00:12:22,120 Hey, Kathy. 237 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,120 Hey, Kathy. 238 00:12:23,120 --> 00:12:25,480 One of my favorite seasons, I have to say. 239 00:12:25,480 --> 00:12:26,720 Yeah, that was a good season. 240 00:12:26,720 --> 00:12:27,720 Go watch that season. 241 00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:28,720 I rewatched it recently. 242 00:12:28,720 --> 00:12:30,720 Listen to this episode and then watch that season. 243 00:12:30,720 --> 00:12:32,440 Yeah, or rewatch it if you want. 244 00:12:32,440 --> 00:12:35,200 Or rewatch it until our next episode. 245 00:12:35,200 --> 00:12:41,040 So 31 years before Delfine moved into this house with her then husband, Leonard, she 246 00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:46,480 was married to a high ranked Spanish royal officer named Don Raymond. 247 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:53,840 Though mysteriously, just days before the birth of their daughter, Raymond rudely just dies 248 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:59,120 for unknown reasons while the three have been traveling to Madrid. 249 00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:00,120 Weird. 250 00:13:00,120 --> 00:13:10,600 Eight years later, in June of 1808, at age 21, now keep in mind, the girl was 13 before. 251 00:13:10,600 --> 00:13:13,360 So now we're at age 21. 252 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:20,760 Delfine Mary is her second husband, Jean Bloch, who she has four children with in New Orleans. 253 00:13:20,760 --> 00:13:26,240 Now she and her family were from New Orleans, but I do believe that her family had for a 254 00:13:26,240 --> 00:13:31,040 good time, went to France and her family did have a chunk of change. 255 00:13:31,040 --> 00:13:36,880 She was already a high, you know, scoring woman who everyone loves. 256 00:13:36,880 --> 00:13:37,880 Everyone was just. 257 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:39,600 So she was just high profile. 258 00:13:39,600 --> 00:13:44,480 She is a whole she was a Popeye, his girl and okay, she could have had it all, but 259 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,760 split to the story gets to its. 260 00:13:46,760 --> 00:13:47,760 Ashole. 261 00:13:47,760 --> 00:13:48,760 Draftful peak. 262 00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:51,240 I know, literally. 263 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:57,840 So like I said, both her husbands at this point have mysteriously died. 264 00:13:57,840 --> 00:14:06,120 This brings us to 1825 when Delfine then Marys physician Leonard Lowry and the two eventually 265 00:14:06,120 --> 00:14:10,960 finished her home in 1832 into what we now know today. 266 00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:15,280 Now Leonard and Delfine moves in with only two of Delfine's daughters. 267 00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:21,040 I'm not sure what happened to the other children, but I think they just lived with their other 268 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:24,920 family members while Delfine moved on and just kept living her life. 269 00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:28,520 Cause you know, that's what you do out here. 270 00:14:28,520 --> 00:14:33,640 Not to say her daughters were exactly treated well either, but they did live there either 271 00:14:33,640 --> 00:14:38,200 way, everything was just perfect for the family and moving into their new home. 272 00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:45,200 And again, the mansion is a very beautiful main mansion, but the only thing to consider 273 00:14:45,200 --> 00:14:49,080 is that the home had a slave quarter. 274 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:53,840 So yeah, which I guess at the time wasn't that weird or shocking. 275 00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:59,200 Not weird or shocking, but yeah, yeah. 276 00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:05,520 Now to the community, Delfine was a well maintained socialite of the community. 277 00:15:05,520 --> 00:15:06,800 Everyone knew she was. 278 00:15:06,800 --> 00:15:12,040 During public appearances and social events, she was especially polite to enslaved black 279 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:16,840 workers that would just, she would just come across and all around she just wore a smile 280 00:15:16,840 --> 00:15:24,360 on her face only behind Delfine's facade was a brutal murderous bigot. 281 00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:26,560 Two years had passed by now. 282 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:28,840 So we're in 1834. 283 00:15:28,840 --> 00:15:35,320 And as far as residents in the area knew Delfine and Leonard had decided to separate and Delfine 284 00:15:35,320 --> 00:15:42,160 had been living in the Lolaari mansion with the family's enslaved servants and her children. 285 00:15:42,160 --> 00:15:48,920 People are also already starting to get skeptical of Delfine and what she may have been up to 286 00:15:48,920 --> 00:15:53,880 in her home because a lot of her own enslaved workers have been disappearing or just never 287 00:15:53,880 --> 00:15:56,920 coming out of the mansion like they once used to. 288 00:15:56,920 --> 00:16:02,400 In one instance, Delfine's neighbors reported seeing an eight year old black little girl 289 00:16:02,400 --> 00:16:06,320 falling to her death from the roof of the Lolaari home. 290 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,160 I know. 291 00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:11,080 Really, really tragic. 292 00:16:11,080 --> 00:16:17,680 Eventually an investigation on this was conducted, but the only outcome to come of this was Delfine 293 00:16:17,680 --> 00:16:20,960 having to forfeit nine of her enslaved workers. 294 00:16:20,960 --> 00:16:23,360 Boo fucking who? 295 00:16:23,360 --> 00:16:29,480 After this, Delfine lost a lot of credibility because you know, back then for these people, 296 00:16:29,480 --> 00:16:33,960 the idea of having enslaved workers was a privilege and it would have been wrong to 297 00:16:33,960 --> 00:16:38,040 inflict harm on them as if enslaving them was any better. 298 00:16:38,040 --> 00:16:43,800 Unfortunately, many shrugged this incident off as a mental break or a freak accident 299 00:16:43,800 --> 00:16:49,880 and resumed seeing Delfine as the heroic woman for sustaining a household all by herself. 300 00:16:49,880 --> 00:16:55,000 After all, she had once even freed two slaves and had shown everyone how well-mannered and 301 00:16:55,000 --> 00:16:56,400 soft-spoken she was. 302 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,640 So right, should have been the best. 303 00:16:59,640 --> 00:17:01,360 I'm just kidding, that's wrong. 304 00:17:01,360 --> 00:17:08,760 Mother rumors soon all became reality when one night, on April 10th, 1834, a fire ensued 305 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,400 at the Lolaari mansion. 306 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:16,080 Not long after the fire marshals and the police had arrived, they break down the door into 307 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:21,680 the manor and dart into the kitchen to extinguish the fire where the fire was coming from, when 308 00:17:21,680 --> 00:17:27,160 they realized that Delfine's cook was chained to the stove by her ankles. 309 00:17:27,160 --> 00:17:32,320 She later told officials that she was the one to set the fire as a suicide attempt to 310 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:37,000 be free from all the terrible torture that had been afflicted on her. 311 00:17:37,000 --> 00:17:43,320 And at the scene, she told marshals that there had been more slaves in the attic trapped. 312 00:17:43,320 --> 00:17:47,600 When officials finally controlled the fire, they were able to get upstairs to then knock 313 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:53,160 down the door to the attic to find a very, very, very gruesome scene. 314 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:57,560 I see no one has even imagined. 315 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,960 According to an article from the New Orleans Bee, that was released the day after this 316 00:18:01,960 --> 00:18:09,000 incident on April 11th of 1834, quote, upon entering one of the apartments, the most appalling 317 00:18:09,000 --> 00:18:14,720 spectacle met their eyes. Seven slaves, more or less horribly mutilated, were seen suspended 318 00:18:14,720 --> 00:18:20,840 by the neck, with their limbs apparently stretched and torn from one extremity to another. 319 00:18:20,840 --> 00:18:25,160 These slaves were the property of a demon, in the shape of a woman. 320 00:18:25,160 --> 00:18:30,480 They had been confined by her for several months, and the situation from which they had thus 321 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:36,880 pro-provincially been rescued and had been merely kept in existence to prolong their 322 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:42,800 suffering, and to make them taste all that the most refined cruelty could affect. 323 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:45,640 I said that so badly, but okay. 324 00:18:45,640 --> 00:18:52,760 Well, moving on, many of the other enslaved workers were found with broken bones, some 325 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:59,240 were found with their eyes literally, like, just ripped out of their heads, and some were 326 00:18:59,240 --> 00:19:01,880 completely battered to a pulp. 327 00:19:01,880 --> 00:19:08,240 Oh, and come to later find out, the little enslaved girl that died prior to this discovery 328 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:12,960 was simply brushing Delphine's hair when a little girl had got the brush stuck on 329 00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:18,360 a knot in her hair. Apparently, this really pissed off Delphine, so she grabbed a whip 330 00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:23,840 and terrified the little girl, so the little girl had ran to escape, and Delphine chased 331 00:19:23,840 --> 00:19:30,200 the little girl to the top of the home, where the girl had then fallen, or fallen, quote, 332 00:19:30,200 --> 00:19:33,320 off the building to her death. 333 00:19:33,320 --> 00:19:38,080 What is infuriating in addition to this was that Delphine was inspected for this incident, 334 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:43,800 like I said before. She had hired relatives and her friends to buy these enslaved workers 335 00:19:43,800 --> 00:19:52,080 back and snuck them back into the mansion. That's some true, like, terrible shit. And 336 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:57,280 like, I get it, because of the time, you have to think like, what was okay, what wasn't, 337 00:19:57,280 --> 00:20:03,520 blah blah blah blah blah, but either way, like, you chased a little girl to her death, 338 00:20:03,520 --> 00:20:08,320 and then you tried to cover it up, and then you get punished for it, but then you just 339 00:20:08,320 --> 00:20:13,160 chose to just manipulate it anyways. This bitch. This bitch. 340 00:20:13,160 --> 00:20:18,960 She's, I can't even think of words to describe her, but she's definitely a fucked up lady. 341 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,560 She's a fucked up lady, yeah. Oh yeah. Well. 342 00:20:22,560 --> 00:20:27,960 The big racist fucked up lady. Oh yeah. Yeah, without a doubt. 343 00:20:27,960 --> 00:20:32,440 For the time being that there were enslaved peoples, that's a whole different drag in 344 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:39,280 the sleigh. But the fact that she tortured, killed, and mutilated innocent people. 345 00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:43,480 That's really fucked up. Like, at least some slave owners weren't like fucking murdering. 346 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:47,560 No. And I'm pretty sure it was illegal at the time. You don't just kill people. 347 00:20:47,560 --> 00:20:51,360 Yeah, you don't just. First of all, you don't, you don't enslave people. But second of all, 348 00:20:51,360 --> 00:21:00,360 you don't kill people. No, no, not at all. So mobs have broke out in search of Delphine 349 00:21:00,360 --> 00:21:04,880 for the torturing and murdering of her enslaved workers. But by the time the fire had broken 350 00:21:04,880 --> 00:21:12,120 out, Delphine and her daughter had already fled. What happened next was not well documented. 351 00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:17,840 It's believed that Delphine had help from her separate spouse or separated spouse Leonard 352 00:21:17,840 --> 00:21:23,120 to flee because witnesses claim to have seen him at the house the same day at the fire. 353 00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:30,680 Oh, some big T there. Wow. He was unable to be located afterwards, which is another kind 354 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:40,200 of, you know, add on to that. So it's just kind of shady. Yeah. Yeah. Big right flag. 355 00:21:40,200 --> 00:21:44,520 Allegedly Delphine had taken her and her children overseas back to France where Delphine and 356 00:21:44,520 --> 00:21:51,640 her parents and siblings were raised. Townspeople years after in New Orleans suggested that Delphine 357 00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:58,720 may have been bold enough to secretly return back to New Orleans because all the reports 358 00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:04,640 or enough reports had suggested seeing a woman that looked a lot like Delphine. And others 359 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:10,720 suggested that shortly after moving, Delphine had died from a boar hunting accident after 360 00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:20,560 a Jane Doe was found with Delphine's description. So those are two maybe plausible things that 361 00:22:20,560 --> 00:22:25,960 could have happened to you, Delphine. We don't know. It's still a mystery to this day, though 362 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:32,200 this is not the end of the story quite yet because over 200 years, many deemed the Wallari 363 00:22:32,200 --> 00:22:37,960 mansion to be one of the most haunted in New Orleans. Now I'm backtracking a little bit, 364 00:22:37,960 --> 00:22:46,000 but in I guess just like to clear up confusion and stuff to the American Horror Story like 365 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:47,000 story. Yeah. 366 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:51,720 I guess is that she was like buried alive. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Oh yeah. Well, that could 367 00:22:51,720 --> 00:22:57,040 have been it too. Who knows. But in reality, we're it's like not confirmed. 368 00:22:57,040 --> 00:23:02,600 Yeah. Right. Yeah. That it's not confirmed. Yeah. She has no grave that no one knows. 369 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:09,600 Obviously, she's not alive. I'm like spoiler alert. She's dead. But there is some spectacled 370 00:23:09,600 --> 00:23:16,000 us. There's others, I would say, I guess that say that she may have possibly have been like 371 00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:23,720 buried alive by people that knew what she did, or she may have been just lived out her 372 00:23:23,720 --> 00:23:29,640 life and just died of old age. So there's so many different just in everyone around 373 00:23:29,640 --> 00:23:33,040 that time. We're saying that they saw her. They saw someone that looked like her because 374 00:23:33,040 --> 00:23:37,360 she was pretty well known after even that. Like she got even more well known because 375 00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:41,960 of the fact that she did this. And so it kind of spread throughout the papers of throughout, 376 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:47,400 you know, the entire country. And eventually people just kind of gave up in there just 377 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,400 kind of like, well, I don't know what to do about that. She's gone. Unfortunately. 378 00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:57,440 I know it really is. But like I said, that's not the end of it yet because we have ghost 379 00:23:57,440 --> 00:24:06,280 stories for you. Well, long, long after being under the ownership of the lorry's mansion, 380 00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:13,000 it was renovated into a integrated girl school for girls, which now makes sense considering 381 00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:21,720 American Horror Story, which if you guys know, the witches are in a school for girls. So 382 00:24:21,720 --> 00:24:27,520 it was then a conservatory of music. And after that, it eventually then became a home for 383 00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:33,800 the homeless. The interesting part is many never seem to stay or own the mansion for 384 00:24:33,800 --> 00:24:38,800 very long. This is popular because of how the bad juju surrounding the home from its 385 00:24:38,800 --> 00:24:44,520 dark past. So don't blame them for thinking that. But kind of like the Cisa Hotel, if 386 00:24:44,520 --> 00:24:48,880 you think about it, kind of like that a little bit. I don't know. I've seen similarities. 387 00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:55,760 Dark past. Dot past. People died. More to. Lory Lee's got him beat up with the torture. 388 00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:01,560 Oh, she does this bitch. Just some examples of how about the aura around this house is 389 00:25:01,560 --> 00:25:06,880 one owner that bought the house ended up being admitted into the asylum after buying the house. 390 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:12,000 And that was just a year after buying it. Another owner have fell into a coma after buying the 391 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:19,080 property and get this. One of its previous owners was a famous actor. He was Nicholas 392 00:25:19,080 --> 00:25:29,040 Cage. Right. The Nicholas Cage. He had bought the mansion in 2007 for $3.4 million, according 393 00:25:29,040 --> 00:25:36,120 to wandering crystal.com. He spent only one night in the house. It was too afraid to sleep 394 00:25:36,120 --> 00:25:41,760 at the house thereafter because the entire night while trying to sleep, he kept hearing 395 00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:46,480 the sounds of people having a conversation in the hallways after knowing he had been 396 00:25:46,480 --> 00:25:51,320 the only one in the house. He still wanted to keep it, but for the fear factor of it 397 00:25:51,320 --> 00:26:01,000 all, decided to just have it as just a notable, you know, being to have. But not long after 398 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:07,000 he had claimed bankruptcy in the house foreclosed. So those are literally very different owners 399 00:26:07,000 --> 00:26:12,360 that just had weird occurrences with this house while owning them. Now, guess that stayed 400 00:26:12,360 --> 00:26:17,640 at the time the mansion had been renovated as a hotel have reported of hearing streets 401 00:26:17,640 --> 00:26:23,960 and moans at any time of day. Three different witnesses have reported smelling burning flesh 402 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:31,400 or hearing dragging on chains. I could not imagine hearing or smelling flesh. I don't 403 00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:37,120 know how that smells. Don't want to know the smelling of the flesh would do me more than 404 00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:42,800 the tracking of chains. Both equally terrifying, but I feel like if I just randomly started 405 00:26:42,800 --> 00:26:46,840 smelling burning flesh, which I've never actually smelled, but I feel like you would know when 406 00:26:46,840 --> 00:26:59,600 you spoke the smell. It's disgusting. I would not be okay. No, gosh, I'm like, not me trying 407 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:06,280 to envision it. Okay, so as for sightings, more recently tour guides of the mansion consistently 408 00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:11,600 report of seeing an apparition of a tall black man slowly walking around through the mansion's 409 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:16,800 corridor, dragging with sounds like heavy chains, which is just really sad. Many other 410 00:27:16,800 --> 00:27:22,160 report of seeing a white woman in a period dress with glaring eyes staring at them or 411 00:27:22,160 --> 00:27:30,160 on the house, which to me is just equally as terrifying. Oh, it reminds me of hereditary 412 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:34,200 when the grandma in the beginning is just like staring at the mom and she's supposed 413 00:27:34,200 --> 00:27:43,880 to be, you know, did. Actually, no, I don't think I ever watched hereditary. I didn't 414 00:27:43,880 --> 00:27:47,760 know that. Oh my God. Well, if you guys have seen it, you know, I'm talking about if not, 415 00:27:47,760 --> 00:27:57,600 it's streaming on HBO, I think. Anyway, not an ad. Moving on. Ironically, back when the 416 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:03,280 mansion was a all girl school, many students, specifically black students complained of 417 00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:08,840 being encountered by a woman that assaulted them. They explained that she'd yanked their 418 00:28:08,840 --> 00:28:18,960 arms and someone actually have scratches and bruises up and down their bodies. Yeah. If 419 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:24,160 you say it, if you ask me sounds like homegirl a lorry, don't know. But I don't know that's 420 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:28,920 weird because everyone said that, you know, she fled. But people are saying that she's 421 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:37,840 they see a white apparition of a woman just mad. So in addition, in 1894, when the house 422 00:28:37,840 --> 00:28:43,680 was converted into apartments, a tenant that lived in the home had been mysteriously slaughtered 423 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:48,840 in his room. And yes, I did say mysteriously slaughtered in his room. 424 00:28:48,840 --> 00:28:55,160 Which mysterious who the fuck gets mysteriously slaughtered in the room? Yeah, 425 00:28:55,160 --> 00:29:00,280 It's like killed but slaughtered slaughtered. Police assumed that it was a robbery that 426 00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:06,360 had gone wrong, but nothing had been missing from his room after a long investigation. And 427 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:11,800 they never caught the person that did this. Even creepier. After the tenant's death, 428 00:29:11,800 --> 00:29:19,000 there have been tons of unexplainable phenomena coming from the room. And one last one. More 429 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:25,480 recently, one spring during a ghost tour, all lookers were passing by the lorry mansion 430 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:31,800 and swore they had seen the silhouette or someone standing on the roof of the house 431 00:29:31,800 --> 00:29:37,400 and then just vanished. This is thought to be the little girl that had once jumped her 432 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:44,400 death, which is again heartbreaking. But that is where I'll leave you for my story. 433 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:50,440 That one was definitely a very tragic. Yeah. 434 00:29:50,440 --> 00:30:02,160 It's really fucked up gal. Yeah. You know what's interesting too, because I feel like 435 00:30:02,160 --> 00:30:08,640 I need to word this in a certain way, so it's not like a stereotypical gender thing. But 436 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:15,800 like normally men, it's normally men. Yeah, right. Serial killers or I mean, obviously 437 00:30:15,800 --> 00:30:21,560 we have seen our fair share of a couple women killers. Yeah, over over time. That caliber 438 00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:29,360 that's like typically that torture caliber to rip the eyes out of the enslaved African 439 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:35,760 American people that you had to decide it to just keep for yourself. You decide to torture 440 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:41,160 them, take their eyes out, which who thinks of that? And then you just decide to mutilate 441 00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:47,000 them like, oh, like, oh, it's definitely I feel like it's definitely interesting that 442 00:30:47,000 --> 00:30:53,440 it was a lady that was doing it is interesting. One thing I never understood about the whole 443 00:30:53,440 --> 00:31:02,040 lullaby story is that she grew up with a nice family. And I think there were a lot of like, 444 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:08,000 obviously, like there were a lot of strange shit around that family going on and stuff 445 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:12,200 like that. But nothing to that extent, like there wasn't nothing there was no reports 446 00:31:12,200 --> 00:31:18,440 of like, you know, she had family members who did similar stuff. She did I think have 447 00:31:18,440 --> 00:31:23,200 interesting marriage history and that's still weird too that her husband's kind of just 448 00:31:23,200 --> 00:31:28,680 mysteriously died. Yeah, that is suspicious to you, which is like girl what you do. Duffy 449 00:31:28,680 --> 00:31:36,520 and we know it's you. We know it's you. But yeah, that is weird. It is strange. Interesting, 450 00:31:36,520 --> 00:31:40,680 I guess, little add to the fact, especially because we're talking 1800s and we're talking 451 00:31:40,680 --> 00:31:47,760 like very prim proper lady like like, like, yeah. And it's weird too, because like, like 452 00:31:47,760 --> 00:31:52,840 I said, women know rights. Yeah, women are right. Right. Like a lot of that. So it's 453 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:57,200 kind of interesting that she was she was that bold murder to do that shit. Yeah. Yeah, I 454 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:03,200 don't know. But you guys can go to the house check it out. The lorry house it is. I believe 455 00:32:03,200 --> 00:32:08,120 today a wax I think it's more of like a wax museum if I'm not mistaken. So it's kind 456 00:32:08,120 --> 00:32:16,160 of like a pretty much a house that you can still go to the house did burn when I had 457 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:21,480 burnt that night, but they had reconstructed a lot of it. So I didn't really even say that. 458 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:27,360 And on top of that, and there are still people to say that see a lot of shit going on in 459 00:32:27,360 --> 00:32:32,640 that house. And I can only imagine there are a lot of mad black people going ham in that 460 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:40,120 house because I know I would. Oh, as far as I know, it is like a museum tour. Yeah. You 461 00:32:40,120 --> 00:32:52,320 can go into the attic still, I think so. Yeah, it would be a word. I think one of those, 462 00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:56,080 it's one of those and I think we're going to cover some stories later on, but it's one 463 00:32:56,080 --> 00:33:03,120 of those stories are like it's weird that people are fascinated enough to go to a place 464 00:33:03,120 --> 00:33:10,240 where people have been tortured and you know, just killed and murdered in just the most 465 00:33:10,240 --> 00:33:16,200 horrendous ways. But it's also interesting because I don't know, like I if you're asking 466 00:33:16,200 --> 00:33:21,720 me like I would be curious enough to go and see what what it's about. But then again, 467 00:33:21,720 --> 00:33:27,080 I don't know, I feel biased because I report on this stuff all the time. So it's like, 468 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,760 I don't know, but it would be interesting. It would be interesting to check that out. 469 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:39,840 That's for sure. Definitely. So moving on to an Equal ASFLux story. The Griffin House. 470 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:46,400 So this story starts in 1852 when a man by the name of Adam Griffin or Archie Griffin 471 00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:55,960 had just built his home on 1447 Constance Street in New Orleans. So the sources did 472 00:33:55,960 --> 00:34:02,040 mention different names for Mr. Griffin. There was either Adam or Archie. So makes sense. 473 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:10,360 That's old dude. So we're not sure. But one of one of the same guy. Only months after 474 00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:15,320 finishing the home, Griffin did flee and abandon the home before the federal army made 475 00:34:15,320 --> 00:34:21,080 its way into New Orleans. Imagine having to abandon your house he just built. Yeah, that 476 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:26,800 sucks. I'd be like pissed. I'd be really pissed. I'm not at the hell. I mean leaving. No, 477 00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:33,320 literally though. The year is now 1862 and New Orleans had been under siege. So at this 478 00:34:33,320 --> 00:34:38,360 point, Union troops had been choosing large estates to house themselves and their supplies 479 00:34:38,360 --> 00:34:43,040 in and the Griffin home would be one of the homes that they ended up using. I mean, it 480 00:34:43,040 --> 00:34:49,760 does sound like it's a brand new like big home. That's I guess thinking back to that 481 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:56,200 time of war, troops which is knocking down homes and just living with whoever they wanted 482 00:34:56,200 --> 00:35:02,040 to. Yeah, it was like, isn't that like an amendment right that they could just like coming to 483 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:07,280 your house at any time? Yeah, like my home. Yeah, I need to set up shop. Hey, there's 484 00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:14,920 war coming on over here. We're gonna set up some shop. Yeah, that's crazy. So the first 485 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:20,480 group soldiers had come to occupy the house and just within the first night, soldiers 486 00:35:20,480 --> 00:35:25,320 had been bothered by hearing groans and the sound of chains coming from the third floor 487 00:35:25,320 --> 00:35:31,600 or the attic. So when the soldiers had gone up to check the next day, like the Laura re 488 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:37,560 home, they discovered multiple enslaved workers that had been shackled to the walls, many 489 00:35:37,560 --> 00:35:45,960 of which had been starved and some had already passed away. The enslaved servants were wait, 490 00:35:45,960 --> 00:35:51,760 where are you? The enslaved servants were in such dire condition that many of them were 491 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:58,160 plagued by maggots that had infested their way. That's bad. That's really bad. When 492 00:35:58,160 --> 00:36:03,040 maggots grow, that means like the wound was really bad and untreated for a long time. 493 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:09,200 It's dead, dead. Yeah, dead, dead. Yeah. Ew, I want to throw up now. Yeah, that's gross. 494 00:36:09,200 --> 00:36:17,880 Take me home. No, no, thank you. The good thing about those that were still alive is 495 00:36:17,880 --> 00:36:24,760 that they were moved to a hospital to be cared for. Good. And shortly after that, the home 496 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:31,880 did end up becoming a shelter to both the soldiers and prisoners of war. Okay. So that 497 00:36:31,880 --> 00:36:38,480 already been basically when they discovered that they got them out, went back. I wonder 498 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:42,280 if they put them like, because I know they sleep in the same place. I'm like, where would 499 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:48,800 you, I think, where would you have put soldier? I mean, your prisoners, if you're living in 500 00:36:48,800 --> 00:36:56,480 the same house to where they can't escape. Like maybe the basement. Yeah, maybe. I don't 501 00:36:56,480 --> 00:37:02,880 know. This is weird. I know that's a thing like they would get their captors and they 502 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:07,200 would like, you know, lock them somewhere. But you know what, maybe they put them in 503 00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:11,680 the attic. You know what, you're probably right. Let them suffer, right? You're talking 504 00:37:11,680 --> 00:37:17,960 about the prisoners. Yeah. Well, I mean, well, actually, we know the story. We know the story. 505 00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:23,800 So that's I answer my own question. I'm so dumb. Yeah. Okay. Never mind. I'm a man. 506 00:37:23,800 --> 00:37:24,960 I'm happy. 507 00:37:24,960 --> 00:37:33,040 Shortly after some of the union shoulders, shoulders, shortly after some of the union 508 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:37,940 soldiers had caught their first prisoners, they found two Confederate soldiers attempting 509 00:37:37,940 --> 00:37:42,560 to flee and abandon their jobs dressed in union uniforms, roaming the streets, caught 510 00:37:42,560 --> 00:37:49,920 stealing goods from other soldiers, which at the time was a crime punishable by death. 511 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:54,160 The two men were then brought to the Griffin house to await their further punishment. The 512 00:37:54,160 --> 00:37:58,720 entire time they were locked away, they tried convincing the union soldiers that they were 513 00:37:58,720 --> 00:38:04,600 good men. They're like, please don't kill me. Oh, I would too. Like, hey, I can do whatever 514 00:38:04,600 --> 00:38:05,600 you want. 515 00:38:05,600 --> 00:38:13,680 Hey, what do you want? They even attempted convincing the soldiers they even knew a familiar 516 00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:19,040 song they'd all know called John Brown's body. They did convince some of the soldiers that 517 00:38:19,040 --> 00:38:24,600 sentencing them to death may have been a little super barric. Some of the union soldiers became 518 00:38:24,600 --> 00:38:29,040 sympathetic even offering the whiskey and other luxuries that were on hand. Oh, that 519 00:38:29,040 --> 00:38:34,480 be me. You want some whiskey? I guess we won't kill you. But like, I guess I won't kill you. 520 00:38:34,480 --> 00:38:36,880 But you want to get your if I could say that to my enemies. 521 00:38:36,880 --> 00:38:42,400 Though, unfortunately, the two men found out that there would be no leniency in their sentencing. 522 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:47,320 They ended up convincing their guard to smuggle in two pistols so that they may kill themselves 523 00:38:47,320 --> 00:38:52,800 before their sentence was passed. Not good. Fair enough. I mean, I don't want to die at 524 00:38:52,800 --> 00:39:00,000 my own hands. Then if yeah, honestly, I feel that. So the two had sat across from each other 525 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:06,720 on their beds, they faced one another and both let off a fire instantly killing the two. This 526 00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:12,400 suicide was so gruesome that soldiers saw their blood seeping through the floorboards and down into 527 00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:19,560 the wall of the room one floor below holy shits. That's a lot of blood. When the war eventually 528 00:39:19,560 --> 00:39:24,880 ended, the Griffin home really started to see several different owners. But again, like the 529 00:39:24,880 --> 00:39:31,600 Lorely mansion, not many owners or workers stuck around for a very long time. Makes sense. A couple 530 00:39:31,600 --> 00:39:36,800 different owners had reported seeing two drunken soldiers both holding bottles of whiskey as they 531 00:39:36,800 --> 00:39:41,920 hum John Brown's body. That's creepy. That's specific. That's like equally creepy. But also 532 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:46,720 just imagine seeing two ghosts coming at you with some whiskey like like drunk. 533 00:39:46,720 --> 00:39:55,760 You want to pregame after you pregame? I need to leave because you are a ghost. 534 00:39:55,760 --> 00:40:01,040 No, I'd be like, can I get a suit? Can I get a suit? There have also been reports having heard the 535 00:40:01,040 --> 00:40:05,120 sound of marching boots that accompany the sounds of singing and humming of the same melody. 536 00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:13,680 Yeah, that I'm good on that. The humming, the singing. We can't do that. In the early 1900s, 537 00:40:13,680 --> 00:40:17,920 the house was used as a perfume bottling company. And then as a union hiring hall. 538 00:40:18,800 --> 00:40:23,840 That's so fun perfume bottling company. I'd want to do that. Honestly, I can see that. My brand on 539 00:40:23,840 --> 00:40:29,600 it would be like Kindle cosmetics or not kindle cosmetics, kindle, perfume. There you go. There 540 00:40:29,600 --> 00:40:36,400 you go. Kardashian's called comfy. They're like, excuse me, Wyatt. Don't come for me. I mean, 541 00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:42,800 sorry, Kylie or kindle. All of them. Any of you. This owner often would work rebuilding air 542 00:40:42,800 --> 00:40:47,600 conditioners, but soon had disappeared from the home without a trace. That's creepy. Oh, 543 00:40:48,480 --> 00:40:53,840 where'd he go? Yeah, for real. Where the fucking man's go? Prior to this occurrence, 544 00:40:53,840 --> 00:40:58,960 the owner would often write to his family reporting of often hearing screams, groaning, 545 00:40:58,960 --> 00:41:04,320 and clanging chains coming from the attic. Many that passed by the home at the time had also 546 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:09,040 reported seeing the two drunkhead soldiers staring out of the second floor window directly at them. 547 00:41:09,040 --> 00:41:19,040 Oh, love. Oh, I'm good. Have you looking like, Hey, I'm gonna keep walking. 548 00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:26,960 My business. My business. But actually, the most paranormal activity that the house ever saw 549 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:34,480 was reported in 1936. So the first two investors bought the home, they reported getting pelted 550 00:41:34,480 --> 00:41:39,920 with a concrete black thrown from the second floor as the owner stood at the end of the stairs. 551 00:41:40,640 --> 00:41:45,280 Assuming someone was in the home, they checked everywhere, but found no one there and all the 552 00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:52,400 windows and doors had been completely locked. But what's also out about this and about the home 553 00:41:52,400 --> 00:41:57,440 was that it wasn't even made of concrete. So where did the concrete black come from? 554 00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:01,840 Oh, shit, sister. No, where you getting these don't throw bricks at me like the hell. 555 00:42:01,840 --> 00:42:07,600 What the fuck? I'm trying to think of I was a ghost. Would I help people with bricks? 556 00:42:07,600 --> 00:42:11,680 Probably not bricks. Maybe like, I'd probably be a nicer ghost. I would probably like my 557 00:42:11,680 --> 00:42:15,280 my business like move some shit from time to time. Yeah, I probably play with them a little bit. 558 00:42:15,280 --> 00:42:20,640 Yeah, I want to help them with fucking. I'd be like the type of guy. Well, these ghosts are 559 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:26,240 angry. So fair enough. But I'd probably be the type of ghosts that would just like be the kind 560 00:42:26,240 --> 00:42:31,680 where when someone moves in, they'd be like, Yeah, we have a ghost. We named her Stacy. 561 00:42:31,680 --> 00:42:33,520 Stacy. I like that. 562 00:42:33,520 --> 00:42:38,320 She's like fucks with our stuff sometimes. But like, she's really chill. She's chill. 563 00:42:38,320 --> 00:42:43,200 So like, don't worry about her. She like my like hide your shit. But like, it's okay. You'll be fine. 564 00:42:43,200 --> 00:42:51,680 Oh my God. When I was researching my topic, I honestly was thinking about like, 565 00:42:52,240 --> 00:42:57,360 how old some of these houses that we live in are and like, how weird it would be if like, 566 00:42:57,360 --> 00:43:00,400 I don't know, like that phenomena, like living with a ghost, like, 567 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:01,840 I'd be like, 568 00:43:03,040 --> 00:43:07,120 unless it was a cool ghost. No, no, that's just Stacy. 569 00:43:08,960 --> 00:43:12,320 That's just Stacy. Say hi to Stacy. I'm good. 570 00:43:14,000 --> 00:43:19,920 Um, so eventually, these investors had ended up using the Griffin house as a small lamp factory. 571 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:25,440 So many of the employees had also made reports of doors that open on their own, 572 00:43:25,440 --> 00:43:30,880 then following the sound of marching through the house. Some workers also reported seeing and 573 00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:35,680 hearing drunken soldiers as well as seeing blood seeping through the ceiling and walls of a second 574 00:43:35,680 --> 00:43:42,320 story room. That's some shining shit. These drunken soldiers are definitely making their presence 575 00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:47,600 more known. More known than less. Yeah. Oh yeah. That sounds like it. I was gonna say, 576 00:43:48,960 --> 00:43:54,080 that does sound like some horror movie shit seeing blood seep through walls. But like, 577 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:59,200 in that moment, like, what do you even do? I'd be running out of the house calling the police. 578 00:43:59,200 --> 00:44:04,800 Oh, no. No, yeah. I don't know. I'm not bold enough to go upstairs to see what it is. No, 579 00:44:04,800 --> 00:44:11,440 hell no. I'm not gonna lie. But you can best believe I'm weaving. I'd still be calling the cops. 580 00:44:11,440 --> 00:44:15,040 Yeah. Like, hell no. I'd be grabbing my bunny. That's probably what happened to the missing guy 581 00:44:15,040 --> 00:44:20,880 that just disappeared. Here he dips. Yeah, this shit. He said, what the shit? I'm grabbing 582 00:44:20,880 --> 00:44:25,040 my bunny and out of this bitch. No, we taking the babies and leaving. Out of this bitch. 583 00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:32,720 So a few years later, the home was eventually converted into a boarding house because no one 584 00:44:32,720 --> 00:44:37,840 else wanted to invest in the house. Don't blame them. For a pretty long time. It's kind of crazy 585 00:44:37,840 --> 00:44:43,040 to this side note that this house was turned into so many random things, especially being a home. 586 00:44:43,040 --> 00:44:48,400 It was turned into like, a factory a lot. That is weird. Just like, random for it being a house. 587 00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:54,240 I wonder if that was a thing because it seems like back then they were really good about 588 00:44:55,120 --> 00:44:58,800 re renovating things and like small homes into things. Yeah. 589 00:44:58,800 --> 00:45:02,960 And stuff like that. Yeah. They turned a house into a person. I want to see how that looks, 590 00:45:02,960 --> 00:45:06,720 but that I don't. Like, I don't want to see this house like that, but I want to see that. 591 00:45:06,720 --> 00:45:10,800 Yeah. I feel like some places in Detroit are kind of like that. 592 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:18,720 I could see that. Yeah. I could definitely see that. So one of the first tenants in this 593 00:45:18,720 --> 00:45:25,600 boarding house was a widow and she had rented out a room on the second level. Well, one day. 594 00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:30,240 Well, sewing near the window, she looked down to see a drop of blood on her arm, 595 00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:35,760 assuming that she had just nicked herself. She just, you know, wiped it away when I'm with her day. 596 00:45:35,760 --> 00:45:41,680 But after several minutes had passed, more blood started dripping onto her hand. 597 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:46,240 At that point, she looked up and realized that the blood was seeping through the 598 00:45:46,240 --> 00:45:53,760 motherfucking ceiling. Oh, she was so horrified according to the owners that she left the home 599 00:45:53,760 --> 00:46:00,400 and never came back, not even for her. Oh, bitch. I don't blame this. So this bitch up and left. 600 00:46:00,400 --> 00:46:06,480 She loved that shit. She said, I am not bringing it. I know my shit. It's got bad juju. I'm zipping. 601 00:46:06,480 --> 00:46:10,960 That is the POV of what I would do. Basically. Yeah. Like I'm leaving and I'm never coming back. 602 00:46:10,960 --> 00:46:15,200 That is an outline of what I would do in that situation. What in the literal fuck? 603 00:46:17,360 --> 00:46:23,760 On our last note of the Griffin house, the scene is the late 1970s and the area had become 604 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:30,080 really overrun by drug addicts and transients at this point. The Griffin house would also be 605 00:46:30,080 --> 00:46:37,440 overrun, but crazy enough, even the addicts and transients felt an eerie presence and decided 606 00:46:37,440 --> 00:46:43,440 to not stay in the home. I'm sorry. If the drug addicts are staying in there, neither am I. 607 00:46:47,520 --> 00:46:53,440 Yeah, no, we good on that. I'm not even looking at the house. I'm not even breathing in the air 608 00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:58,480 that the house is breathing. I ain't even walking across on the sidewalk. I'm not even, no, I'm not 609 00:46:58,480 --> 00:47:08,880 even looking at pictures. No, I have, but oh, no, bad juju everywhere. Some insisted that the house 610 00:47:08,880 --> 00:47:14,640 was overrun with spirits. I kept saying they had seen two men in some kind of police uniform 611 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:21,200 singing old timey songs. Yeah. So the two drunk guys that killed themselves. Are you just drunk 612 00:47:21,200 --> 00:47:33,600 as a ghost at that point? Can I do that? Can I please go that way? Like I want to be a drunk 613 00:47:33,600 --> 00:47:38,320 ghost. Like how fun would that be? Are you just drunk all the time? Fuck that. Shit, yeah. 614 00:47:41,360 --> 00:47:49,920 So for years to come, the house remained abandoned until about 2004 when an owner bought and renovated 615 00:47:49,920 --> 00:47:57,680 the decaying home. Though in a 2017 interview about the home, the owner had claimed witnessing no 616 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:04,240 drunken sailor songs, no blood dripping from the ceilings. Although he did add that guests 617 00:48:04,240 --> 00:48:09,840 that stay in the converted addict don't stay too long. What the fuck you do turn into an Airbnb? 618 00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:22,000 Yeah, it is actually. You can just stay there. I said that as a joke. What the fuck? It is. 619 00:48:23,280 --> 00:48:28,000 I just looked that up and yeah, it actually is a place you can stay. So if you guys want to go, 620 00:48:28,720 --> 00:48:32,960 if you guys want to actively go. Let me look up how much it is a night. 621 00:48:32,960 --> 00:48:40,080 It looks really nice. Wait, I want to see pictures. I want to figure out how much it is. 622 00:48:41,440 --> 00:48:49,040 That's like really nice. That just not looks scary. Honestly, I'm not saying this though, 623 00:48:49,040 --> 00:48:55,280 like at night, but I'll go there in a day. Like that's really cute. Oh shit. I didn't even know. 624 00:48:55,280 --> 00:49:03,920 Oh my God. Is this the attic? I hate it. I hate it. It like doesn't look scary at all. 625 00:49:03,920 --> 00:49:10,480 It doesn't look scary, but knowing what happened. That's terrifying. Oh shit. Look at their backyard. 626 00:49:10,480 --> 00:49:16,480 They have a pool and everything. Oh my God. Period. Okay. The price of it is a million dollars. 627 00:49:17,280 --> 00:49:24,720 1.3 million. Oh my God. Are they selling it like right now? Maybe it's selling it and that they're 628 00:49:24,720 --> 00:49:30,400 not renting it to people. So maybe that's what it is. Not Airbnb, but it's like a place you can 629 00:49:30,400 --> 00:49:35,120 like rent by or something. Well, it says the page you're looking for cannot be found. So maybe 630 00:49:36,160 --> 00:49:42,320 it was sold. I don't know when this article was written. That's interesting. I want to see how 631 00:49:42,320 --> 00:49:48,640 much it is a night, man. Can we stay? I bet if we email them they'd be like, yeah, come on. 632 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:57,360 Let's go. Let's take a trip to a haunted house with drunkos. What could be better? 633 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:04,160 Yeah, I don't know. I can't find anything about staying in it like an Airbnb, but I 634 00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:08,880 don't know how much it would be a night. But I don't want to know too. It's market prices. 635 00:50:08,880 --> 00:50:18,640 This is a stab. Basically, 1.3 million dollars, which is a lot. Oh, oh, shit. It's a lot. It's 636 00:50:18,640 --> 00:50:24,640 kind of nice. Yeah, we'll post pictures on Instagram at WTLGO podcast. I'll say it again in 637 00:50:24,640 --> 00:50:33,280 five minutes. So it's fine. But yeah, that is. I can't find anything. No, it's okay. We're gonna, 638 00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:37,680 I'm interested though. So we're definitely, if I do find something, I'll let you guys know because 639 00:50:37,680 --> 00:50:44,080 I'm interested.
