In this chilling episode of Mountain Murders, we dive into one of North Carolina’s most disturbing true crime cases — the twisted story of Pazuzu Algarad and Amber Burch. Behind the boarded-up doors of a suburban home in Clemmons lay a nightmare few could imagine: satanic rituals, human remains buried in the backyard, and a community gripped by fear and disbelief.

We unravel the dark descent of John Lawson — who renamed himself Pazuzu after a demon — and explore how his warped charisma drew in followers, including his girlfriend, Amber Burch. Together, they turned their home into a den of chaos, addiction, and death.

Join us as we peel back the layers of mental illness, manipulation, and moral decay that fueled this modern house of horrors — and ask how such evil could hide in plain sight.

This week on Mountain Murders, we’re diving into one of the most chilling and controversial haunting cases in American history — A Haunting in Connecticut. The 2009 horror film was inspired by the real-life experiences of the Snedeker family, who moved into a former funeral home in Southington, Connecticut, in the 1980s. Soon after settling in, they claimed to encounter terrifying paranormal activity — from ghostly apparitions to violent poltergeist attacks.But what’s fact, what’s fiction, and what really happened inside that house? Join us as we separate the Hollywood horror from the real-life mystery, explore the role of famed investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren, and discuss the skeptical backlash that followed. Was the Snedeker haunting a genuine case of supernatural terror… or a cash grab much like the Amityville horror case.
