From troubled child, to troubled teen, to troubled adult and finally landing the title of murderer, Helen thought she concocted the perfect plan to get rid of her husband. She was sadly mistaken.

In this episode we chose to leave the Emporium and embark on a paranormal investigation of grand proportions. We got to have a private investigation of the Stimson Hospital in Eaton Rapids, MI. The building itself is 151 years old, add in the fact that there were 2,500 (more than likely more) people died in this building, it's almost a garauntee to finds some things that go bump in the night.
