Summary

In the late 1970s, a quiet suburban home in Enfield, London, belonging to the Hodgson family got a new roommate—a poltergeist. The entity seemed to latch on to their 11-year-old daughter, Janet, who experienced levitation, violent attacks, and had strange voices speak through her. The case was heavily investigated by paranormal researchers who agree an evil spirit was present, but some think there’s another explanation regarding Janet’s supernatural abilities.

I don't know about you, but children are so fascinating to me.

things were physically moving around their house.

I mean, furniture, rearranging, matches, spontaneously igniting, toys flying across the room.

And while more than 30 people reported seeing supernatural activity,

1:08.1

their 11-year-old daughter, Janet, seemed to be at the center of the chaos.

1:13.6

And that's why I wanted Rasha and Yvette to cover today's case. Because I'm curious.

1:19.4

Are we just completely underestimating kids and their abilities to deceive us? Or do they really

just have a stronger connection to the paranormal?

I'm Ashley Flowers. Welcome back to So Supernatural.

Thank you. Hi, everyone.

Hi, everybody. Hi everyone. I'm Yvette genteelay. And I'm her sister Rasha Pecorero. And today's story is one that I find

extra spooky, not only because it's about a ghost, but because it involves young children too.

2:20.0

That's right. It's about a family that lived in the London suburb called Enfield.

2:26.0

The mother, Peggy Hodgian, had been raising her four children all under the age of 14, mostly on her own.
