1971
I had just said goodbye to my parents and now driving down the Ed and Lorraines home, after working with them for a year I finally agreed to move in to help out with Judy.
I had agreed to only accompany then on a case if they needed me so that someone was always looking after Judy.
But as Judy was staying with Lorraines parents this week I was able to go with Ed and Lorraine to a lecture on their work.
So I was stood next to Lorraine at the front of the lecture hall while Ed gave a short lecture about our work, showing the proof we had caught over our time together, and even before then on the projector.
After Ed concluded his lecture many people raised their hands, one asked "what do you call yourselves?" Which Ed responded with "we have been called demonologists, but we have been known by other names such as, paranormal investigators, ghost hunters." Lorraine then added "crazy" I then chipped in with "mad", The audience shared a light chuckle before I stepped forward slightly and said "but we prefer to be simply know as Ed and Lorraine Warren and Grace Stevens" we then brought our lecture to a close.

Once we were out of the university we made our way to the car, and began to put our things in the back when Drew came up to the car, he gained our attention by clearing his voice.
We all turn and see Drew with a women by his side, "this is Carolyn Perron, she would like to talk with you" Carolyn gave us a small smile; we all said our hellos then Carolyn started to explain why she needed us.
"Their's something terrible happening at my house, please could you come and have a look?" Ed sighed quietly and turned away from packing the car to look at Carolyn "look it's getting late, we have to get home to our family." "no, you don't understand." "But we do. there's normally a perfectly rashinol explanation to your predicament..."
I walked from the back of the car and leaned on it, intrigued by what she had to say.
"please; I have five daughters at home who are scared to death, I'm so afraid this thing wants to hurt us; you have a daughter, right?, wouldn't you do anything to protect her?...please...please, would you just take a look?" Carolyn pleaded on the brink of tears.
Lorraine looked at Ed and then at me, I nodded to show that I felt we should help her and her family, "of course we will, we'll come by as soon as we can." Lorraine said reassuringly "Thank you" Carolyn said.

We were in the car driving down the road to the Perron family home, Lorraine in the front seat with the map, Ed driving and Me in the back seat, up ahead I could see the house.
I got an uneasy feeling as soon as we pulled up out side, and in that single moment I knew we did the right thing in coming here.
Ed parked the car and we all got out and walk over to the door, after a moment Carolyn opened the door "hi, thank you so much for coming" "of course" I said sweetly, her husband walked towards the door, we all made our introductions.
Lorraine noticed the children standing in the living room, and went over to talk with them.
"Carolyn? Are you all sleeping down here?" I asked once I noticed all the make shift beds in the living room, Carolyn explained that "the girls feel safer and it's warmer. I'm constantly turning the heating up." Roger (Carolyns' husband) then explained "there's nothing wrong with the furnace, not that I can see."
I walked over to the window and looked out for a moment, then continued to walk over to the mantel where a couple of pictures were on display, I then heard Carolyn explain to Ed that they had smelt a horrid stench all around the house, "oh god" I said under my breath and made my way over to them.
Once I reached them I shared a look with Ed which caused Carolyn to ask "What? What is it?" I gave her a sorry look and explained "well, rancid smells often indicate demonic activity..." she had a shocked look on her face. Then Ed tried to open the doors next to him as I was explaining, making quite a bit of noise which caught our attention, he was unsuccessful.
Roger walked into the hallway from the living room having hear the noise and told Ed "we tide them together to stop them from banging, otherwise it's like..." he hit the wall next to him 'Bang...Bang...Bang' "...all night long." Ed then questioned "does it always come in threes'?" "Yeah, pretty much" Ed then asked "does it stop at dawn?" "Yeah, it does. Why?" I gave Ed a worried look as he explained "It's sometimes meant as an insult to the trinity: the father, the son and the holy spirit."
We were then taken on a tour around the house. Carolyn pointed out the wardrobe that was in the house before they moved in, explaining that this was the room where their daughters, Cindy was sleepwalking into the wardrobe doors and where Christine woke up after her foot being pulled to see a figure behind the door, and their eldest daughter Andrea was pinned to the floor by the same figure a few days later.
After hearing all that has happened to this family it made me worry about them and their safety. We headed down stairs and I got a strong feeling of wanting to through up so I stepped out side for a moment.
