Just thought it would be interesting, there are several books that go with the Haunting episodes.

House of the Dead: Dark Force

Summerwind Mansion: The Carver Effect

Dark Forest: Echos of a Haunting

Deltona Haunting: Dread and the Dead Filled the Dunnam House (my personal favorite)

Where Demons Dwell: Devil in Connecticut

Fear House: The Uninvited (comes out this summer)

Dark Wrath: The Wall A horrifying true story of a haunting

All of these books can be purchased from amazon except for The Uninvited.

Thank you for the info Snake Eyes!!!

I love to READ!!!

>^..^<

And possibly the scariest (and hardest to find) for A Haunting In Connecticut: In A Dark Place- The Story of A True Haunting.

That was one scary book.

I forgot to mention, Echos of a Haunting is running out of copies fast and I don't know anyone else that sells them.

Oh, great. More lies. What, was his orginal book not "scary" enough?

His story and his book is a hoax fabricated by a group of Evangelists to further their cause, thats all.

GREAT!
Unleashed is one of my favorite episodes!

If your really interested in this episode, check out his website at www.thehouseonchurchstreet.com. A picture of the house where the bones were found is shown, but the home was eventually destroyed. Another picture is shown of a possesed table, which really gives me the creeps!

Thanks, snake eyes.

***Actually the story is not a hoax as you may think. www.thehouseonchurchstreet.net is a website that I have put up for my father whom the story is about. The .com site is going to be replaced by the .net site soon anyways. It is not a hoax by fabricated evangelists at all. The story is true, the video holds true accounts and the people are real.

www.youtube.com/rjaymz02 is where you can view the unleased from A Haunting, that I posted on there. With Video you cannot see on Discovery channel only the original copy could have what I posted that I got from my father Randy R Ervin whom is a real person being that I am his son...

Thanks, rjaymz! Most of us here never thought it was a hoax.

Most of the people that lived around that area say they never heard or witness anything. Of course Xtians wont think its a hoax, others do! Besides, have you read the book?? ITS AWFUL. THeres all these silly things to give the story the spook factor--like a table that he has in the house that supposedly cursed and that being the reason for that hauntings. And do I need to mention the indian grave plot taken from Poltergeist??

***Well you can believe what you choose to believe. This story was not broadcast all over the place when it happened. Do remember this story did happen back in the late 1970's. There are people who still till this day remember things that have happened there located on church street in standish michigan. Other homes were haunted near where the house once stood because of what happened. There were neighbors effected by what happened in that house. Have you not finished to book to ever find that out?

If you actually knew the history of arenac county you would know that there are indian burial grounds threw out the entire state of Michigan(which is an Indian name)and some indian burial sites are unknown locations. They found an indian burial site in Bay City a few years back when they were building. They had to abandon the site because it was considered sacred ground.

Why do you think there are so man Indian names threw out the entire state? Because it was inhabited by Indian tribes over hundreds of years. The cursed table was not what caused the haunting to happen. If you read the history of what happened in the story you would know that it was my grandfather who found the bones under neither the home, they were inspected and found to be Indian bones over a couple hundred years old. On top of that there is a back story of the reason why my father bought the book on witch craft was because my great grandma always spoke of buried money that her mother and father brought and hid when they came to america.

He bought the book to summon spirits to help him find the money because the map had been hidden away due to a curse that was suppose to be on it if non-family members found it. Instead of them helping my dad find the money he stirred up something else that caused the hauntings. Indians put curses on their dead to keep grave robbers from the sites, the book was recited in the house above the indian burial site which caused ALOT of this to go wrong***

Well, if its true can you give us the name of the Witchcraft book? Some of us (Pagans) want to look into it.

The book, The House On Church Street says that the name of that Witchcraft book is titled "Witchcraft and Your Destiny."

I've looked and looked and can find no trace on this book online. Did Randy sue the publishing company? Might be the reason.

I'm not sure. Randy's book says that it is the title of the Witchcraft book. This the only answer I can get. Since this story takes place in the 1970's, the book is probably no longer around.

I emailed that address. If i dont get a response then my suspicions will be confirmed.

I feel like I just walked into an interrogation room. Mystic, you should be a homicide detective.

Well, I dont like people who falsify things to get a publishing deal.

Oh, I know sweetie, I was just messin with you.

Obviously the "A Haunting" producers didn't think the guy was lying.

And just because one doesn't like someone's life experience story, because it puts Jesus as the victor, doesn't mean they are lying either.

Thank you careful_turtle! Thats usually the story why others cannot believe the story is because of differences in faith or personal views.

To mysticone4life If the story were false than I guess it was schemed that my dad, grandma 2 aunts and uncle my dads friends the 4 neighbors that still surround the empty lot, my great aunt and close family friends have all decided to fake the story since the 1970's until The Discovery Channel's A Haunting stumbled across my dads back in 2004. They have been telling these stories since my sister and I were really young. Sometimes they wouldnt talk about if we asked. Its not something to happily talk about on a regular basis.

If you emailed him give him a week or 2 to respond to your answer. As for the book that my father had bought from the library, it was almost a 100 year old book when he got it. I doubt there were many copies let alone any information on the internet now that will archive that.

The original book was called "You Shall Know The Truth" but my father re-wrote the book in 2002. And appropriately called it The House On Church Street. His intentions to rewrite the book was to get his testimony out to those who have become tormented by the things that he went threw.

So now the book is a 100 years old and very rare? Haha! Please, dont insult my intellegence. I can easily find books dating centuries back and even the Bible has survived this long, and you're telling me I wont find this book because its 100 yrs old? You're not making a believer out of me.

My problem with his story is that it sounds like a silly attempt to glorify Evangelism. You're dad went further and declared all witchcraft evil in the show(which is not true), and us Pagans find that a bit insulting.

Alright, raymz, I'll take into account what you said. I dont mean to sound rude, but religion is a very sensative subject and Wicca has already been shown in a bad way in the show. I apologize for my previous post. Hopefully, I will get a response from Randy.

Thats fine and I understand where you are coming from as well but you have to understand that when he used the book it stirred up the spirits that protected the Indian Burial ground that was underneath the home, it did not communicate with the spirits in the book that he was suppose to...

He wanted to talk to spirits from the book that he had to help him find buried money. Not to intimidate the Indian burial ground. It was the indian spirits that were stirred up. He didn't understand that what he was doing was going to cause these problems. It was the sacred burial site that was unleashed on him.

For starters they found human indian bones under the house, you got to know that Indians put curses on graves and call upon spirits to dwell within the grave to keep robbers away, to torment them away from the grave. You can find alot of local story's on this just about anywhere or where-ever these sites are. The are hundreds of stories of people being haunted in the Omer Plains by Indian spirits called witchy wolfs. These are accounted for by Saganing indians in arenac county. Because that whole area is Indian Burial ground. There are years and years of hauntings and experiences out there.

As for him calling witch craft evil he has a right to if he wants. But at the end of the video if you listen and hear he also says it doesnt affect others as it did him but it can cause problems you cant see. Its not something you can see with the human eye. And I am not insulting your intelligence at all nor have I said anything insulting. I was stating that it was an old book, if there were more than one copy then power to ya trying to find it. Your better off contacting him rather than me if you want your sources straightened.

I did, he hasnt responded. Maybe he can post here directly.

What kind of a response do you want from Randy Ervin? There is a new book out the old one is out of print. called The House On Church Street,The Whole Story. read that and your questions maybe answered. You can contact him personally threw his website also...

Just because you have not met any witness does not prove the story false, the story tells of many witness that were envoled. The story tells of the many rabbit trails that were taken to find the real truth as life does the same thing to us all. The table has a history of the owner cursing his images and giveing them to those he hated.

To clear up somethings, the 100yr old book was a book that only 4-6 copies remained in print in the world around 1974. That was not the book that opened the doors to the spirit world it was another one that was in print during the 1970's. raymz02 just didn't know how it actually happened, this will correct the problem. I think what you are dealing with isn't the story it sounds like you have a problem with christian beliefs. The book doesn't put down or condemn witchcraft. It only tells a story and proves what the author went threw to find the way out of the nightmare he was living...

the book is out of print, you don't need to read the book that he read to open the same doors. There are several hundred that will do the same thing but not as profound has his nightmare... it was an isolated story...

YAY, YAY, YAY,
Did any of you remember my post of my mother's experience along with my own? I stated my maternal grandma is full blooded Ojibway/Chippewa Native America Indian?? I STATED that strange and UNUSUAL occurences were happening.... ?
My grandmother and her mother (i remember) asked God to remember ALL the persons who discrimanated against them. Even renting a flat in snowy Michigan.
I lived 20 minutes from the standish, Mi guy who read the satanic bible. LOL.
Burials, etc has always been there - unfortunately until the 70's/80's did anyone recognize that land was sacred.
Please PPL!!!!!!!!!! Duh!!!!!!!!!!

The man who Wrote the book is telling the truth some of you on here wouldn't know the truth if it bit you!!! You all need to go buy the book or go bye the dvd's that are out on it... I know where the house was.... They do have it all roped off now!!! you all wouldn't know casue you just don't want to believe it casue it didn't happen in your own back yard!!!

I believe the story! It's the best one that "A Haunting" told, IMO.

I know that most of this thread has lead to the discussion with Randy's encounter with the supernatural, but I just wanted to say something real quick. Since this thread was originally about books relating to A Haunting episodes, I just thought I'd mention another book known as "The Uninvited" by Steven Lachance. The story is based off of the episode "Fear House." This book is now available for purchase. It truly is a terrifying book and if anyone's interested in a good, REAL haunting, I highly recommend this book. I've reread this story several times and it still gives me chills down my spine. You can check the book out at www.stevenalachance.com Just click on the Union Haunting section. Or, if you interested in the actual haunted house: www.unionhaunting.com. Heh, the MPR investiagtors even have a few images with several abnormalities occurring in a few different investigations. Definitely worth checking the websites out. That is all.

(~Resume Topic~)

You are so quick to judge him on his book!! He took the time to write about what happend to him in his life. You all just wouldn't know the truth if it bit you!!! You all really do need to get the book and read it. What he when threw would scare the living crap out of you!!! He is telling you all the truth you all just judging him cause it didn't happen in your back yard!!!

Hey....Hello? I believe it.

Well Iam glad that you believe it because I know that he is teling the truh about. I do know Randy. And I can tell you just from what I know of him I can tell you all that he really is telling the very truth!!! Some people just need to knock Off the finger pointing and stop be so judgemental!!! on what really does happen to other people in there own personal Life!!!

Don't let Mystic-witch's comments get to you. You have to consider the source.

This is true!!!!you do have to consider the source!! That I do agree with. I like what rjaymzo2 wrote to!!! Like he said it is is father who wrote the book!! There are some people that really need to read it!!!! before they start the finger pointing!!!
