The Ammons' Haunting & "Demon House"
Latoya Ammons and her family moved to Gary, Indiana in November 2011 and almost immediately started experiencing strange phenomena, eventually leading to claims of intense hauntings and demonic possession. These happenings came to a head on April 19th 2012, when the youngest Ammons child displayed what many consider to be undeniable proof of demonic possession, all thoroughly documented by a DCS agent.
The aftermath of this culminating event led to unexplainable injuries, exorcisms, and...notoriety. The "Ammons' Haunting" garnered interest from local news, online forums, and Ghost Adventures host, Zak Bagans. Fascinated by the claims of modern-day possession, Bagans purchased the home to film his own documentary Demon House. Throughout the creation of the film, Zak and his crew seem to fall victim to the unfortunate occurrences plaguing the past tenants. The infamous house was promptly torn down after the completion of filming in 2016, as Bagans deemed the home to be "too dangerous" to be left standing.
Latoya Ammon's experiences have been supported by many local clergy, law enforcement, and CPS officials, all of which claim to have been affected by the so-called "Demon House." However, many skeptics insist it was all a publicity stunt to get out of financial and legal trouble. The explanation of the case will leave you wondering, what truly did happen in the house on Carolina Street and is it really...a portal to hell?
