Caroline and Emily dive into the Sallie House in Atchison, Kansas—an 1800s home linked to Dr. Charles Finney and infamous for reports of violent paranormal activity. They cover the popular legend of a girl named Sallie who supposedly died during a rushed appendectomy (despite no historical proof she existed), the 1993 case that brought national attention, and why many believe the entity targets men with scratches and attacks. The episode ends with competing theories—environmental or psychological factors, poltergeist activity, or something darker using “Sallie” as a disguise—plus a warning that the house is now open for overnight paranormal tours with strict rules.
