We're back with another episode of Avery After Dark. I'm your host, Avery Ross, for all my paranormal

lovers out there, you are in for a real treat with today's episode. Many of you have asked why I'm so

into ghost stories and spooky stuff in general. I grew up in a Midwestern family. And for people who know,

Midwesterners drive to every vacation spot. Like flying somewhere? No way. My family was like that meme about people

from the Midwest that was like, why would I fly? It's only a 14-hour drive. That's Midwestern people

for you. But during those long car rides, we had a lot of time to kill. And luckily, I had a really

fun, creative grandma

that we would take these trips with. Grandma Dorothy, I called her Mammer's. She passed a few

years back, but she was such a special person. She loved to paint. She loved mysteries. And she also had a gift for telling the best

ghost stories. So during these car rides, I would always ask her to tell me scary stories. And she would.

Some of the stories she would create on her own. Some she based off stories from her childhood growing up in Kentucky

or tales that she had heard as a young girl. I loved those stories so much. As soon as she'd

get done with one story, I was already asking her to tell another. And that's really where my love

of scary stories originated. From there, I started watching scary TV shows, like,

Are You Afraid of the Dark? And Beyond Belief, if any of you remember those. And I always loved watching

scary movies. And here we are today. And I'm still fascinated. I like the unknown because I like to think that we're all a part of a

grander plan here on Earth. I've also had some paranormal experiences myself, but I'll save those

for another episode. It's time to get into this week's haunting. If you like ghost stories and

history, sit back and relax because this one is going to be right up your alley.

I posted a video on the most famous house in America last week, the White House,

and many didn't know that it's also one of the most haunted homes in the entire United States.

I had a lot of comments asking for more, so let's go.
