No one expected she would become the center of a murder mystery that has lasted nearly two decades. From a brutal slaying in broad daylight to the years-long fight for answers, her family, friends, and colleagues could never have imagined that they would be making the same calls for justice she once made on her television program.

It was a simple Raggedy Anne doll, given to a young woman on her birthday. Its unusual behavior first elicited amusement that quickly turned to horror. Was the soul of a child - or worse - a demon trapped inside? Or is the most sinister part of this story the truth about the consulting demonologists at the heart of The Conjuring films?

A town founded on its underground riches was plagued by bad luck. Mass casualty events filled the place’s only graveyard. One family chose to honor their departed loved one in a unique way – they built a motel adjacent to the cemetery decorated with an onslaught of clowns. Thousands of figurines outfitted in red noses and giant shoes greet visitors to this roadside inn, but the proximity to the burial ground has generated tales of paranormal activity. Is this ghost business merely a circus act meant to attract visitors or does something horrible lurk beneath these curly wigs? This week’s episode is The Clown Motel.
