There's always one more.
There's always one more.
Always one more.
So today we're going to be talking about the Beckwith family haunting.
A family that was tormented by what they believe to be a demonic entity amongst other spirits as well.
A truly crazy story, but one that, you know, as always may have some alternative theories to it.
But let's go ahead and just dive right in.
So our story begins in 1998.
The Beckwith family began searching for a new home.
Bonnie, who was a nurse, and Sean, who was a repairman, had three children, teenage daughters, Frances and Jennifer, and their nine-year-old son, Jeremy.
Bonnie and Sean had wanted something more spacious for everyone, so they decided to start searching for a larger home.
The family drove around Connecticut's Naugatuck River Valley area looking for possible suitors.
That's when they found themselves outside of a home on Buckingham Road in the town of Seymour.
Seymour is a small area in the southwest part of the state, and locals have described it as charming.
and it has a very rich history.
It was originally called Shoestown, and was a Native American fishing community as it sits along the Naugatuck River.
The Paugussett Skattakook tribes inhabited the area until the 1600s when settlers took over the land.
Then during the 18th and 19th centuries, the area had an industrial boom.
And in the late 90s, when this story takes place, about 14,000 people live there and residents describe the town as quaint.
The Beckwith family seemed to agree.
