wow! jean geni is a whiger!!! fer sure! better go back to your pimps. Thanks to the person abov eme, I have been tryign to find info on this subject and all I can find is info on the movie!!!


sounds liek a territorail stronghold, not ghosts but demons, by the way ghosts are demons. The more terrible the event that took place on the property the more of a hold (stronghold) they have on t he territory (area/property).Is the movie ';The Haunting in Connecticut'; really based on a true event?
yes it's based on the very first episode of the show, ';A Haunting'; If you'd like, you can watch that show on Discovery Channel, at 1:00/ 2:00 PM Central Standard Time.





';A Haunting in Connecticut'; is the very first episode of the series, and it is based on a real event.





';A Haunting'; is a show, where people want to tell about their encounters with the supernatural, and the crew hires actors to re-make the events.Is the movie ';The Haunting in Connecticut'; really based on a true event?
Yea the first person was pretty harsh. . .but





Yes it is very much based on a real event here it is. . .





Carmen's family had been going through some tough times when she happened upon the ';for rent'; sign outside the house. Her oldest son was undergoing treatment for cancer, the family was in dire straits financially, and they needed an affordable place to live. Carmen felt her prayers had been answered when she discovered that the monthly rent was well within the price range that her family could manage to pay for a decent and comfortable place to call home.





Shortly after moving into the house, Carmen made a shocking discovery. In the basement, partially hidden under building and construction materials, she found tools and equipment that are typically used by morticians. Carmen quickly came to the horrifying realization that she and her family were now residing in a former funeral home!





It didn't take long for darkness to descend upon the family. One day, as Carmen was mopping the kitchen floor, the water suddenly turned blood red and had a putrid odor. Crucifixes that hung in various places throughout the house began to simply disappear.





Carmen's niece was living with the family at the time. One night, while sleeping, she was physically assaulted by unseen hands that groped and grabbed at her body. A rosary that she had placed around her neck was violently yanked by the abusive entity and the beads scattered all across the floor.





Several demonic entities made their evil presence known during the ensuing weeks.


';They were incredibly powerful,'; Carmen remembers. ';One of the demons was very thin, with high cheekbones, long black hair and pitch black eyes. Another had white hair and eyes, wore a pinstriped tuxedo, and his feet were constantly in motion.';





Carmen's formerly ';preppy'; oldest son soon began wearing only dark clothing and suffered dramatic personality changes. He became increasingly angry and violent and he started writing dark, disturbing poetry. One of the poems that he wrote contained graphic descriptions of sexual activity with dead bodies.





The family frequently smelled foul odors in the house, including the scents of rotting flesh and excrement. At one point, a dark mist enveloped Carmen and her niece while they were together in the kitchen, disorienting and paralyzing both of them. Terrified, Carmen began to recite The Lord's Prayer and the demon released the women from its hellish clutches.





Carmen was at her wit's end. Her family was clearly in danger, as the demonic infestation grew worse with each passing day. Desperate for relief, she telephoned renowned paranormal experts, Ed and Lorraine Warren, and begged them for help.





The Warrens, perhaps best known for their involvement in the much-publicized Amityville Horror case, agreed to investigate. Ed, Lorraine and their team of investigators literally moved into the Snedeker's home for an astounding nine weeks in order to witness for themselves all the supernatural events that were allegedly occurring.





John Zaffis, nephew of Ed Warren, was part of the investigative team. John recalls that, shortly after arriving, members of the team began to be ';touched'; by the entities. He also remembers the vile odors that frequently permeated the house.





';The situation was pretty chaotic by the time we arrived,'; John recounts. ';One night, I was sitting at the dining room table, reviewing some notes that I'd made. Suddenly, the room grew bitterly cold and I could sense a presence around me. I called out to the others, who were sleeping in the living room, but I couldn't get anyone to wake up. I looked up the stairs and saw an apparition starting to form. The air was filled with a disgusting odor, so foul that I could hardly breathe. As the apparition took shape, I could hear a noise that sounded like thousands of flapping wings coming from behind it. I'd never been more terrified in my life!';





A Catholic priest was enlisted to bless the house and even perform the sacred rites of mass therein, but the negative activity continued. Finally, the decision was made to conduct an exorcism on the house. The demonic forces railed against the exorcism, but following the ritual, ';the house definitely felt lighter and we all felt a sense of calm and relief,'; John Zaffis remembers.





The Snedeker family resided in the haunted house for two-and-a-half years before finally moving. To the best of her knowledge, Carmen states, ';no one who has lived there since [her family left the premises] has experienced any paranormal activity.';





It has been almost two decades since these events
Rooker, The movie, ';A Haunting in Connecticut,'; is based on what occurred in the ';Southington home'; that inspired the movie. Strange things happened in that house in the 1980.s when the Snedeker family, claimed their son would hear strange noises in his basement bedroom which once held casket displays.





I do believe this story is based on what happened during that time.
Yes, I remember they aired a show on the A%26amp;E channel I think and it showed re-enactments of the hauntings and the stories from the real people who actually lived in the home. But yup it's based on an actual true event!
It is suppose to be based on a real event.


after being fooled about the Amityville horror in the '70s I wonder about anything based on real stories.
Yes it is actually based off a real event(s)
a duhhhh


if it wasnt y would they say it is
