The Bleeding House was located in Saint Quentin, a small city in the Aisne region of France. Its story begins in 1986, when a family moved to the property and, after a month, started to hear strange noises (such as moans and clanging pots) coming from the ground level.

At first, they thought it was just the neighbors, but then things became weirder and weirder. One day, the wife witnessed a strange and viscous red substance dripping down the walls of the kitchen. Was it blood? Her husband dismissed her concerns, saying that it was probably just old paint that was returning to the surface. But then it started happening in other parts of the house, so the couple decided to call the police. The investigation led to a creepy conclusion: it was not paint at all, but human blood. 



The family decided to leave the house for a week, after spreading flour on the ground (in hopes of catching someone pranking them). When they returned, there were no footprints, but all the walls of the house were totally covered in blood. A priest was called and gave a verdict: this was the work of a demon, and the house should be demolished at once.

When they tore the house down, the corpses of about 50 German soldiers from the first World War were discovered beneath the building.
