Homeowners bring in TV show ghostbusters
Modena – The sprawling house John and Joanne McDonough have lived in since the late 1970s used to be a boarding house, and, as far as they’re concerned, it still is.
The house’s occupants don’t pay for their rooms. They take up no space, either. They never speak and, for the most part, they keep to themselves. Joanne McDonough will sometimes catch one of them from the corner of her eye, peeking around a corner of the sprawling, 14-room house.
She’s gotten used to it by now, though it’s taken time. And, after a four-day examination of her home by a team of paranormal investigators, historians and researchers – Joanne McDonough knows beyond the shadow of a doubt that hers is a haunted house.
Come October, you’ll be able to judge for yourself. The McDonoughs will be the subject of a new reality show, tentatively called “Haunted Houses,” on The Learning Channel. The idea is to have houses like theirs investigated by poltergeist professionals.
