thought that the doc

looking forward to

to be I figured it was big enough to

keep George do away from me and

everybody had enough room in

you know this is this is pretty cool

I could work with us

moving and a we go

a this was a self move this was the

family pack to drop factor on boxes if

it breaks it's your fault cuz you look

back box right by the time

we've got Amityville was mid-morning

an 11 something like that my job was

was just to to haul boxes that said

I helped back to drop in on one pack

drop and I ran down to the bone yard and

ran up to the top 10 couldn't believe

this is like on the water with Paul kids

in the pool

boat house in I got right inside the

front door

and i'm looking at this picture right

here where you can see straight up the

staircase

ran all the way up to see how far the

house would call when

slight literally twice as big as

anything else we had looked at

I loved it thought it was great soldier

move

I'll maybe a quarter of the way into the

truck

father ratios up

but I song come n

I was in the truck dump on boxes of at

that point a

I wanted to know which was my room cuz I

wanted father rate to come to my room to

good also my wrong so

did your mom just call him over to left

the house

lot of people will do that that's just a

normal occurrence

so when did you start really feeling

that

a sense about ease okay the until the

first two hours being in the house I

mean I was confused with the whole

father Ray

in areas and he's getting this holy

water in the Far Niente page in the

Bible he went in the house around a good

boxes at dropped in

you're talking with my mom and and I go

back down get another box but I'm afraid

subsequently the next box was to go up

to the playroom

and when I went in there there was

problem

she for a five hundred flies

and we're talking this is made December

Long Island

yeah I started gallon

mom came running up stairs and she

stopped screaming

nervous it finally started clicking

in her mind I'm not sure what it was why

father Ray just left

I would stand there with the newspaper

smashing them on the wall and smashing

them on the window

and knowing that in five minutes I just

killed about a hundred flies

I went downstairs tell Mom to have a

calm of to be all proud skilled flies

and the dead flies are gone she would

look at me and say but did you do

you did what

where's the newspaper puts and I just

left a newspaper on the floor

was too dead flies

and

that's when my confusion started when

did you start

feeling sensing any unease

or what was the offer and my mother was

is it would could not she was able to

describe

anything if I walked in I said mom what

strong she would tell me immediately

what's going on

and she wouldn't keep things from I'll

and now she's keeping secrets from and I

those mom I told we had disagreements

here and

she which given me these bullshit

excuses

or not answering passing of that I wanna

know what's going on

the housing to react differently or

people reacted differently

to the house your mother said she had a

feeling

love peace and didn't even want to go

out to do

normal chores and things

george always said he couldn't get warm

and he was

admitted to becoming more aggressive

and then om one of the things that they

there's a whole list of things that they

told me about that I'm

put bullet points here there was subtle

personality changes

in all the family members basically that

olive you were affected you had

very short tempers violence was

commonplace

and they said that one point and George

that this

that he and Kathy took wooden spoons

to you and your brother and sister om

and beat them with that one night and or

did you guys around the house

like drill sergeants you recall that

yet while that happens

probably fifty times after that to

solvents

didn't happen work did have before you

moved into the house it happened a

couple times in George's house before we

move to Amityville

do you think because he had no parent

skills and he was only ever

yeah marine that's how we know how to

handle things I said this is going to be

a cakewalk

did you try and protect you from or were

you expecting her to protect you

no actual on my mother to protect

me fun I'm here to protect

her from you I had to

speak to George InSAR and call him

George

call only mister lots or so

you had to call mister lots for sure but

that when he was your stepfather

so to move on

had my father so

you guys were just repulsed by one

another at a molecular

level I don't we can say I one another

because George is in here

but you didn't I'm sorry I can't help

but smile when you say that

why do you think he's here know that
