Transcript from Addisons Port High School

"There are many local stories I could have chosen for this assignment...I chose the story of Henbane House. Legend says that prominent Spiritualist Eleanore Henbane moved into the house in the 1890's. Her family dwindled one by one. First one of her twin baby boys was stillborn. They say that she summoned his tormented spirit so much he became trapped in the world of the living. Her daughter went missing eventually. The victim to her tormented younger brother. Then there was some kind of explosion in her basement that killed the rest of the family save for her son. An experiment gone wrong in her husband's basement lab. Where he did all kinds of ungodly experimentations. He was trying to bring back his dead son, give him a new life so he'd stop tormenting the family. They say the last Henbane standing was never the same after the rest of his family was killed. They say it's because after that night his Twin possessed him and used him to continue his revenge on the world of the living."
