Summary
We all inherit something from our ancestors—whether it’s a good sense of humor, curly hair, or, in Sam Baltrusis’ case, a connection to some of the most notorious events in history. Imagine discovering your bloodline runs through both the Salem Witch Trials and the Lizzie Borden murder case. Not exactly the family tree you brag about at reunions, huh? Join us as Sam shares his story of uncovering this chilling connection and how it has shaped his understanding of the paranormal, history, and perhaps, a few things that go bump in the night. This is Part Two of our conversation.

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to part two of our conversation with Sam Beltruzis, about being related to evil. |
| 0:05.6 | Yeah, and the idea of being pressed to death that just sits with me and the fact that it came out of a daughter's dream and then they're like yeah that's a father-daughter |
| 0:14.8 | bonding moment like hey remember honey when you had that dream and we implemented |
| 0:18.8 | pressing a man to death that was a good one. |
| 0:21.8 | I'm just So absurd. |
| 0:24.0 | And that's how strange and weird this whole story is. |
| 0:29.0 | And that's what's motivated me as an author for many many years. |
| 0:33.2 | I can't believe some of these stories |
| 0:36.1 | and that people believe these stories, |
| 0:38.6 | but I also thought that it served |
| 0:40.8 | as an allegory to other things. And saw with the crucible it did it it |
| 0:46.0 | repeats over and over again so I feel as someone that is related to not only the |
| 0:50.4 | puddums but the Borden family and in the book we're talking about |

| 1:06.0 | victim but that was proved by DNA evidence that she's connected to us and we |
| 1:10.4 | also have Eileen Warnos. Eileen Warnos was a serial killer in Florida |
| 1:15.8 | who, you know, looking at her story, |
| 1:17.9 | she was tragic in many ways. |
| 1:21.8 | There's her life story was tragic in many ways too. So there are other people that came up during research, but the book related to evil is really going to focus on the Pudnum family and also to the borden family and the fact that those two ties |
| 1:38.1 | opened up a can of worms where I was able to look at other crimes that were tied to our family tree. |
| 1:44.1 | Yeah, you got a lot in your tree. |
