In downtown Dayton. A 26-year-old steps off, walks toward a goth club called Asylum… and vanishes. Tonight we investigate the Phil Gall cold case, the 1990s Dayton goth/industrial scene, and the headline-grabbing claim that the city hosted “one of the largest vampire covens outside New Orleans”—a claim amplified by a Netflix documentary that reportedly never aired.We separate verified facts from rumor: the last credible sighting near Asylum, the years the case went cold, and the later occult-ritual allegation from a retired officer. We dig into the venue’s real history (address, capacity, reunions) to show how gothic aesthetics can be mistaken for criminal ritual. We tackle the big question: Are vampires real? We look at three lanes(1) supernatural revenants and why historical “forensic” reports dissolve under modern taphonomy (2) modern vampyre communities (sanguinarians, psychic vampires, lifestylers) and their consent/safety norms (3) the psychology behind “energy vampires” (emotional contagion, co-rumination, boundary failures) and why some interactions leave you wiped out. Finally, we explore why the documentary about Dayton’s coven hype was reportedly shelved, what’s confirmed vs. speculation, and what evidence would actually move this case forward.

The Hinsdale House in New York has been called one of the most haunted houses in America. In the 1970s, the Dandy family moved into what looked like a peaceful farmhouse—only to discover footsteps in empty halls, voices whispering names, and shadows watching from the windows. Things grew so terrifying that the Catholic Church performed a full exorcism on the property. But even that didn’t stop the haunting.

In this GITN Strange Bites Episode, we explore the true story of the Hinsdale House Haunting:

• The Dandy family’s chilling encounters inside the farmhouse
  

• The mysterious “Mary’s Room” filled with flies and strange visions
  

• The 1974 exorcism by Father Alphonsus Trabold that failed to quiet the house
  

• Local legends of a “hanging tree” and cursed land
  

• The diary and book Echoes of a Haunting by Clara Dandy
  

• How modern investigators and the home’s current caretaker, Daniel Klaes, keep the story alive
  

Is it cursed land? Paranormal infestation? Or folklore that grew too powerful to fade? This is the haunting of the Hinsdale House.
