Summary

When Steven & his 3 children moved into their new home, they thought it would be the perfect fit. The old white house sat at 809 North Christina Avenue in the charming small town of Union, Missouri. It had an idyllic front porch & lots of room for the family to grow

Instead, the family was terrorized by a chilling demonic presence & were driven out of the the home in the middle of the night

They only lasted 13 days inside...

After numerous paranormal investigations, it's believed the home itself houses numerous spirits & sits on top of cursed land with a bloody history

The Screaming House of Union has been referred to as one of the most diabolical hauntings in history. The Catholic Church even investigated and produced a rare 150+ page report detailing the haunting and claimed the home was infested by a demonic presence

In this eerie episode, Avery tells the TRUE story of Steven and his family and what exactly transpired in the screaming house that left the family running for their lives...

0:00.0	Home. It's a place you're supposed to feel safe, protected, comfortable, where you come back to recharge,
0:23.0	refuel, and rest. Folks will complement a home saying it feels cozy and inviting.
0:29.2	Your home is supposed to be your own private space where you feel the most secure, like you
0:34.5	belong. But what if a home has the opposite effect? What if instead of feeling safe there,
0:40.7	you feel unwelcome? You feel on edge. What if instead of walking through your front door at the
0:46.5	end of the day and basking in a sense of warmth, you just feel cold, frigid down to the bone? Suppose
0:53.2	you don't feel like you belong in your home at all.
0:56.7	It more so feels like you're intruding on someone or something that's already there. You feel
1:01.8	like your home isn't really yours. These feelings can be a reality for those who unknowingly
1:07.6	move into a home with a dark entity residing inside. They find themselves with no place to turn when they want to feel safe, because their home
1:15.6	makes them feel the exact opposite.
1:17.6	And this was a reality for a man named Stephen LaChance in his family in 2001.
1:22.6	Their family had just suffered a terrible loss, and in an attempt to cope and try to move on with their lives,

1:40.0	They ended up moving in, and it was one of the most memorable experiences of their lives, but not memorable in the good way.
1:48.4	Many know of the infamous Amneville House and how the Lutz family was so terrorized by the entities in the home, they only lasted 28 days before fleeing.
1:57.5	That's really been used as a measure of terror in a haunted house. How long a family can
2:02.5	last inside before they just can't take it anymore. Well, the Lechance family only lasted in this home
2:09.0	for 13 days before they left running for their lives. And the home in question is referred to as the
2:16.3	screaming house and for good reason. Welcome back to Avery
2:20.7	After Dark. As always, I'm your host Avery Ross. I'm so glad that you're here with me today. And
2:26.9	ooh, do I have a spooky story for you today? And a reminder, if you're enjoying Avery After Dark,
