In the wooded hills of rural Vermont, there stands a house that everybody in the town of Hollow Creek knows about, but nobody talks about. It was built in 1881 by a man named Elias Thorne, who was a woodworker and a recluse, and who died in the house in 1923 under circumstances that the official record describes as "self-inflicted" but that the local folklore describes as something else entirely.
The house has been empty for over a hundred years, but it is not abandoned. People who live nearby report that the lights come on at night, even though the electricity was disconnected in 1947. People who walk past on the road that runs by the house report that the windows blink at them. People who have gone up to the house, on dares or out of curiosity, report hearing voices from inside — voices that seem to be having conversations, and that stop the moment anyone knocks on the door.
This is the story of the House That Listened. Vincent narrates a deep dive into decades of documented encounters, the strange history of Elias Thorne, and the one night in 1994 when a group of paranormal investigators spent twelve hours inside the house and emerged at dawn with recordings that nobody has ever been able to explain.
