Speaker 1: My mom was a really funny person. She would tell
Speaker 1: me things sometimes and they would come true. Good week
Speaker 1: or so before the murders, she was upset. She kept
Speaker 1: telling me. Every day she'd say, I'm losing my mind.
Speaker 1: I can't sleep. I keep having this terrible dream. She'd
Speaker 1: never told my clip to dream is about, and she
Speaker 1: would just tell me I'm having this terrible dream of
Speaker 1: having this terrible dream. And I started questioning. I said,
Speaker 1: is it the same dream? And she's like, yeah, it's
Speaker 1: the same dream. I said, what is the dream? And
Speaker 1: she said I I don't know exactly. I just keep
Speaker 1: seeing four coffins. I keep seeing these four coffins, but
Speaker 1: I can't figure out who the fourth one is. And
Speaker 1: as she said that, before I could even ask her anything,
Speaker 1: she grabbed her purse and her keys and walked out
Speaker 1: the door. So I didn't even get to questionable. Wait
Speaker 1: a minute, woman, who was the first three? YEA. My
Speaker 1: name is m William Phelps. I'm an investigative journalist and
Speaker 1: author of forty four true crime books. This is season
Speaker 1: two of Paper Ghosts Burned. Some called it the greed Decade,
Speaker 1: the yuppie years. But however, you wanted to find it.
Speaker 1: The eighties was about bright colors, big hair, and historic
Speaker 1: pop culture moments. A new cable network called MTV Music
Speaker 1: Television debut, the first Space Shuttle mission took flight. Ronald
Speaker 1: Reagan was president, teared down this wall. As the countercultural
Speaker 1: and radical movements of the sixties and seventies gave eight
Speaker 1: to the materialism and consumerism of the eighties, Middle America
Speaker 1: seemed to churn along as it always had. Most Midwesterners
Speaker 1: went about their business and didn't concern themselves with what
Speaker 1: went on throughout the rest of the country, something they
Speaker 1: had been doing for decades. Already struggling to make ends,
Speaker 1: meet jobs, hard to find the ups and downs of life.
Speaker 1: There's nothing new, notably in states like Ohio, the setting
Speaker 1: of my latest investigation. Beppo was a great little town,
Speaker 1: just a small town. Um. Everybody's you know, kind of
Speaker 1: knows everybody, and the kids walked the streets, and you know,
Speaker 1: we had a first as where all the cars would
Speaker 1: and together and we'd all drive around. It's just not
Speaker 1: attle American down Bethel, Ohio. It's a small village in
Speaker 1: Claremont County with a population of just under twenty. There
Speaker 1: are farms and more farms modest, one bedroom cape cod
Speaker 1: style homes next door to ten thousand square foot ranches
Speaker 1: with steel arbors over the entrance. The name of the
Speaker 1: ranch welded into an image of a steer or horse.
Speaker 1: People here chew tobacco and where motor oil stained baseball caps.
Speaker 1: They walk around with mud on their clothes. From the
Speaker 1: hardest work imaginable. It's an off the beaten path kind
Speaker 1: of place where people kept to themselves. For the most part,
Speaker 1: you didn't ever need to lock your doors. That comfortable
Speaker 1: security changed during the summer of when a call for
Speaker 1: help went out in the middle of the night. An
Speaker 1: inferno was ablaze. A massive property belonging to one of
Speaker 1: the town's most popular, wealthiest families, the Stevenson's, was engulfed
Speaker 1: in flames so immense the orange and yellow glow of
Speaker 1: the fire could be seen from miles in the night sky.
Speaker 1: What happened that night an event I am here to
Speaker 1: investigate and have been looking into for the past five years.
Speaker 1: Rock this community. For something like this to happen in
Speaker 1: the town where everybody leaves their doors, you know, unlocked,
Speaker 1: where everybody kind of knows each other. Um here we
Speaker 1: are you know almost fifty years later, and people are
Speaker 1: still they still talk about it. The sense I get
Speaker 1: is how time has not altered people's feelings or thoughts
Speaker 1: about the town's most high profile murder case, certainly not
Speaker 1: speculation or rumor, which has Ebbden flowed over the decades.
Speaker 1: Everyone in Bethel, it seems, has his or her theory
Speaker 1: about what went on inside the Stevenson's the state that night.
Speaker 1: But the real story is not within the whispers at
Speaker 1: the post office of the local diner. No, the true
Speaker 1: story lives within the people who knew the family best, which,
Speaker 1: when looking into cold cases, is where you always want
Speaker 1: to begin. My name is Carol Thompson and I'm from
Speaker 1: all over, but I was born in West Virginia. Carol
Speaker 1: Thompson is a fifty nine year old mother of three.
Speaker 1: She has six grandchildren. She has short, curly, dark hair
Speaker 1: and a vivacious disposition. Carol grew up in various cities
Speaker 1: around the country. Book considers Bethel her home. I'm in
Speaker 1: town to meet her at her small ranch house just
Speaker 1: west of town. She seems a bit nervous auntsie, but
Speaker 1: at the same time eager to discuss what happened to
Speaker 1: her family forty years ago on July six, Um, sound
Speaker 1: asleep and my fame rings. I'm roll over, groggy and
Speaker 1: I answered the phone. Hello, and it's and from Ed's
Speaker 1: Bourn in Bourne, who is a gentleman who owned a
Speaker 1: gas station on the other end of Ethel. Well. Because
Speaker 1: it's four o'clock in the morning, he really probably didn't
Speaker 1: see a whole lot of people, and he had a
Speaker 1: scam that he kept on on his office and he
Speaker 1: hears them calling for fire trucks from my mom's house.
Speaker 1: He says, Carol, you need to get your mom's There
Speaker 1: is a fire at your mom's. They're sending fire trucks
Speaker 1: from all over. You need to get your ass out there.
Speaker 1: I said, Ed, why are you messing with me this morning?
Speaker 1: It's quarter to five. What are you doing? Because I
Speaker 1: thought this was a joke. He's like, no, no, no, Carrol, no,
Speaker 1: listen to me, honey, I'm serious. There's a fire to
Speaker 1: mom's house. Carol's parents, stepdad Billy and mom Lynda Stevenson
Speaker 1: lived in this massive farmhouse at the time. Carol lived
Speaker 1: about a mile away, just a few minutes drive at
Speaker 1: that early hour with their three and a half year
Speaker 1: old daughter Shannon sound asleep. Carol grabbed the blanket, swaddled Shannon,
Speaker 1: threw her in the car and drove off. Before Carol
Speaker 1: even made it to the street her parents lived on,
Speaker 1: she could see the glow of the flames, hear those
Speaker 1: sounds of alarm, and smell the intense odor of fire.
Speaker 1: The flames are everywhere. I mean they're everywhere. So I
Speaker 1: parked my car on the side of the road with
Speaker 1: the intentions of running up the hill because there's a
Speaker 1: hill before you can get up to the house. And
Speaker 1: as I get up the hill, I'm seeing fire trucks
Speaker 1: everywhere and everywhere. And I remember I took off running
Speaker 1: for the front step of the house. I was going
Speaker 1: to go in. I was going in. I needed to
Speaker 1: get to my mom. I'm going to go in that house.
Speaker 1: So I take a step to the step, and as
Speaker 1: soon as I do, want to pull back, somebody has
Speaker 1: me from behind. And as I spin around, I'm facing
Speaker 1: a cop I don't know, and I remember what I'm saying,
Speaker 1: you can't you can't go in there, and you can't
Speaker 1: go and I'm screaming, where's little Bill? Where is little Billy?
Speaker 1: You know, where's a little Billy, and I'm like losing it,
Speaker 1: screaming out and I can see two ambulances where here,
Speaker 1: and I so I'm screaming, where's a little Bill? Where's
Speaker 1: little Bill? And that that was the only person I'm
Speaker 1: screaming for. And I remember they said little Billy's in
Speaker 1: the ambulance. He's okay, but your uncle is dead. They
Speaker 1: unfortunately had it wrong. Carol's five year old brother, Billy Jr.
Speaker 1: Was dead. Also, her uncle, thirty year old Eddie Dowell,
Speaker 1: who had traveled south from Michigan to stay with the
Speaker 1: Stevenson's that summer, he was dead too. Now standing in
Speaker 1: front of the burning house, Carol was joined by our
Speaker 1: other family members who lived nearby, one of whom was
Speaker 1: her other younger brother. I want to say it was
Speaker 1: close to seven, maybe six. Sorry, My little brother comes
Speaker 1: flying in the door where I at in the neighbor's house.
Speaker 1: Can fly on the door, he says, Carol, they're all dead.
Speaker 1: I'm like what, No, that's not right. He goes, Carol,
Speaker 1: they are bringing the bodies out of the house right now.
Speaker 1: And I look out on the porch there's the bodies
Speaker 1: and they're like stacked. Well, the sheet dripped over, and
Speaker 1: I remember seeing a foot sticking out from under the sheet,
Speaker 1: and I remember thinking to myself, that is my mom's bread.
Speaker 1: At the same time, my brother says, Carol, something's up.
Speaker 1: They're not telling us everything. There's too much blood. That
Speaker 1: is not a fire. There is too much blood. There's
Speaker 1: three bodies on the porch, and there's blood, and there's
Speaker 1: blood everywhere, I mean, on all the sheets and anything.
Speaker 1: So I immediately Paul asked to the lead cop that
Speaker 1: had been talking to me that morning. I went straight
Speaker 1: to him and I said, what's going on? There is
Speaker 1: too much blood for fires. What I'm being told? What
Speaker 1: is going on? And the cops that He says me, Carol,
Speaker 1: they've all been shot. And that was like, oh man,
Speaker 1: my whole even now I remember it, you know, like
Speaker 1: it happened. Everything just dropped. Everything about me dropped. Billy
Speaker 1: and Linda Stevenson were well known in Bethel all at
Speaker 1: once for their eccentric, larger than life personalities as well
Speaker 1: as their successful business ventures. Billy, sometimes called Steve which
Speaker 1: is short for Stevenson, was a self made coming from nothing,
Speaker 1: South Carolina born Texan trance plant who wound up in
Speaker 1: Claremont County, Ohio in the early seventies. He began his
Speaker 1: enterprising career selling a variety of thrifted goods and knickknacks
Speaker 1: like garden statues, ceramic bowls, jewelry, and Mexican imports. His
Speaker 1: biggest source of income back then came from selling those
Speaker 1: cheesy nineteen seventies era black velvet paintings you've seen them,
Speaker 1: iconic figures like Elvis and Bruce Lee. It was at
Speaker 1: Billy's store where Linda began flirting with him, despite the
Speaker 1: fact that he was also a married man and had children.
Speaker 1: So she started flirting with Steve, and then within no
Speaker 1: time she had Steve Rapper Banky. So he gives up
Speaker 1: his business, gives of his wife, gives up his kid,
Speaker 1: and him and Linda, well, my mom got partner right away.
Speaker 1: Give me what to do? Keep them mate. So she
Speaker 1: got partner right away. So Billy was very excited. He
Speaker 1: was very excited. He of this baby. Okay, this was
Speaker 1: a new chapter for Linda, who at this point was
Speaker 1: already a mom to four children and had recently left
Speaker 1: an abusive marriage to an ex con. Billy and Linda
Speaker 1: were married in nineteen seventy six, with teenage daughter Carol
Speaker 1: at home watching over her new baby brother, Billy Jr.
Speaker 1: Both Billy and Linda Stevenson traveled around the country for
Speaker 1: weeks at a time, selling wholesale merchandise. Kind of what
Speaker 1: happened was gold and silver went crazy. The medals gold
Speaker 1: and silver went nuts. My mom was very business minded,
Speaker 1: and so she went to Stephen, said we need to
Speaker 1: do this. We're gonna buy and sell gold and silver.
Speaker 1: And when they started that man, their business took off,
Speaker 1: which led her into wanting to learn jury. So she
Speaker 1: went and got some training and learned how to identify diamonds,
Speaker 1: and she learned, you know, she got on and lark
Speaker 1: what she's doing, and she started selling dory By Billy
Speaker 1: had expanded his businesses and graduated to owning five roadside
Speaker 1: fireworks stands along Route, which is a four lane road,
Speaker 1: lots of heavy, fast moving traffic, a main artery bringing
Speaker 1: you into all the neighboring towns. By this time, Carol
Speaker 1: and her new husband pitched in and helped with the sales,
Speaker 1: raking in upwards of twenty thou dollars per day from
Speaker 1: May to the July four holiday weekend. Now were you know,
Speaker 1: we were too busy with gold and silver throughout the year,
Speaker 1: but come May it was all focused on fireworks. Was
Speaker 1: she into the illegal types right away or no? He
Speaker 1: was never into a legal fireworks never? No. Never. Now
Speaker 1: did he have his own a few illegal fireworks, sure,
Speaker 1: but he didn't sell absolutely. Never. Oh, but keep in mind,
Speaker 1: all fireworks are really one state of Ohio. You can
Speaker 1: sell them. If they're taking them across state lines, a
Speaker 1: let them off. In Ohio it was legal to sell
Speaker 1: and possess fire ones. He just couldn't fire them off.
Speaker 1: Didn't make sense, but that was the law. So Billy
Speaker 1: and Linda made each customer sign a release stating they
Speaker 1: would not light the fireworks they purchased from their stands
Speaker 1: in the state of Ohio. Now, was he ever in
Speaker 1: any trouble previously with the law? Yeah, he had been
Speaker 1: in trouble, But honest to God, I don't know a
Speaker 1: whole lot about it. I know that he had a
Speaker 1: felony because I know he wasn't supposed to own guns,
Speaker 1: But my mom didn't have me felonies, so sham goes.
Speaker 1: So I guess that was a little loopholder us And
Speaker 1: it's safe to say that Billy had guns on them,
Speaker 1: probably at the stand who always sends around that house
Speaker 1: and around in their first Mamma's first tell me about
Speaker 1: the guns that they had. Well, my mom carried a
Speaker 1: three seven and her purse at all times, and Steve
Speaker 1: would have had he carried his forty four a lot.
Speaker 1: I won't say carried it all the time, but if
Speaker 1: he was the one somewhere, it was our seat deciding
Speaker 1: was he the type of guy who would use that
Speaker 1: gun if he needed to? Absolutely, Linda and Billy were
Speaker 1: not playing. Those are serious weapons only serious gun owners keep.
Speaker 1: By early summer, the Stevenson's were gearing up for another
Speaker 1: busy season, particularly as July four neared. This was the
Speaker 1: time they waited for all year long lines cash money,
Speaker 1: but also twelve hour days every day of the week.
Speaker 1: People everywhere. The lines and lines of people wanted to
Speaker 1: buy fireworks was crazy. And uh, that particular year, I
Speaker 1: do a one. I remember that was the year I
Speaker 1: got my first trailer and I was so excited, you know,
Speaker 1: so I had all these beautiful fireworks in my trailer.
Speaker 1: It was awesome. Money was not a concern for the Stevenson's.
Speaker 1: One source told me Billy got the first water bed
Speaker 1: in town, which if you grew up in the eighties,
Speaker 1: you know that was a big deal. Except for Billy.
Speaker 1: It had to have a bit of extravagance, so he
Speaker 1: apparently stored nothing but gold bars underneath the bed he
Speaker 1: and Linda slept in. A lot of people have been
Speaker 1: telling Mom and Steve, you know, hey, you know you
Speaker 1: need to be carrible man. You know you're flashing all
Speaker 1: this money, you're wearing all these jewels, Maybe be careful.
Speaker 1: Did they brag about it? No, they did not brag.
Speaker 1: They weren't the bragging pipe. But yeah, I mean they
Speaker 1: showed it, and they they flaunted it. I mean they
Speaker 1: used it. I've heard that Billy was the type he'd
Speaker 1: have a roll of money with a rubber band in
Speaker 1: his pocket and he'd hand it to you. He wasn't
Speaker 1: trying about trying people. And if you needed a twenty
Speaker 1: he'd hand it to you, you know, or if you know,
Speaker 1: you walk up. My little girl said, when Keny worries,
Speaker 1: could you but sure give me twenty hours worth. They
Speaker 1: were not nice people, and they flaunted she was dripping
Speaker 1: in jewelry. He was too, but she was bad. We're
Speaker 1: talking five rings on one finger. We're talking this woman
Speaker 1: probably care more. I don't know, twenty carrots of diamonds
Speaker 1: on her hands. It's like, hey, look at me, you
Speaker 1: should Robbie. The question has always come up, how did
Speaker 1: Billy Stevenson make the bulk of his money? I've spoken
Speaker 1: to people who suspected drugs. Others believed he ran guns
Speaker 1: with an old friend and business partner. Selling velvet posters
Speaker 1: and fireworks on a corner lot in a gas station
Speaker 1: parking lot. Well, that's one thing. Showing off hundreds of
Speaker 1: thousands of dollars, which many say Billy liked to do,
Speaker 1: that's quite another. The problem with all this, who do
Speaker 1: you believe? Business? That holiday weekend exceeded expectations. By j
Speaker 1: the Stevenson's had grossed over two hundred thousand dollars in
Speaker 1: firework sales. That night, the family went out to dinner
Speaker 1: to celebrate another successful season. Everyone, Billy, Linda, their five
Speaker 1: year old son, Billy Jr. Daughter Carol, who had her
Speaker 1: young daughter with her, and Linda's brother Eddie returned home
Speaker 1: around ten pm. Carol's parents were still in a triumphant
Speaker 1: mood after getting home and called some friends to come
Speaker 1: over and hang out the Carol was exhausted from working
Speaker 1: the holiday weekend. She decided to head back to her
Speaker 1: own place around ten thirty. As she was leaving, Carol
Speaker 1: passed two men in the hallway, one a close family friend,
Speaker 1: the other someone she didn't recognize. They were just arriving
Speaker 1: just before midnight. Carol called the house to say goodnight.
Speaker 1: Her mother, Linda answered. She sounded happy and even joked
Speaker 1: around playing the call off as if it was that
Speaker 1: family friend's wife calling and looking for him. There was
Speaker 1: a lot of traffic in and out of that house.
Speaker 1: If it wasn't his daughter and her clan, it was
Speaker 1: you know, friends ahead or friend to them, so it
Speaker 1: wasn't unusual. Barry Crayton was a sergeant with the Claremont
Speaker 1: County Sheriff's Department. He had been working the midnight shift
Speaker 1: when he got a call from dispatch about a nearby
Speaker 1: house fire in a body that had been found inside.
Speaker 1: He was the first officer on the scene. When I
Speaker 1: got there, Chief Hawk Bob Howk was the fire chief,
Speaker 1: and he met me in the driveway and he said, U,
Speaker 1: there's bodies in there. He says, um, I think maybe
Speaker 1: we wouldn't they have been shot? And can you give
Speaker 1: me a shakedown cruise on a oxygen mask and what
Speaker 1: have you and to go in the fire. And he
Speaker 1: said sure, so he did. He give me a one,
Speaker 1: two three, and he and I went in back in
Speaker 1: the house, the Stevenson property was glamorous and extreme, with
Speaker 1: two kitchens, a game room in ground, pool, ballroom, dance floor,
Speaker 1: the latest video games in the living room, the size
Speaker 1: of a small ranch house. While I was in town,
Speaker 1: I saw the place, which had been remodeled once again,
Speaker 1: but with the integrity Billy had designed himself. Billy had
Speaker 1: even converted the silo attached to the old barn into
Speaker 1: an office. The smoke from the fire was so thick
Speaker 1: law enforcement initially miscounted how many bodies were in the house.
Speaker 1: We went in and we had to get down on
Speaker 1: the floor and crawl. And he first all he took
Speaker 1: me to a couch and it was a small child
Speaker 1: laying on the couch, and I can tell he was dead.
Speaker 1: And then he showed me another end of the droll
Speaker 1: lamb out on the floor by the table, which was dead.
Speaker 1: An important point here is the positioning of the bodies
Speaker 1: each victim was found on the first floor. If you
Speaker 1: walked in through the front door into a large foyer.
Speaker 1: Straight ahead was a formal dining room. To the left
Speaker 1: a living room where the first body was discovered, five
Speaker 1: year old Billy Jr. Who was lying on the couch.
Speaker 1: Everyone I've spoken to believes he was asleep when shot
Speaker 1: at point blank range on the left side of his head,
Speaker 1: the bullet exiting on the right. Carol's uncle, Eddie Dowell,
Speaker 1: was in the same room as Billy Jr. Near a
Speaker 1: small dining table in the corner. Eddie was found on
Speaker 1: the ground next to a chair. Three gunshot wounds to
Speaker 1: the head, point blank, execution style. His face pretty roughed up,
Speaker 1: lightly pistol whipped with contusions to his stomach and lower leg.
Speaker 1: Lynda Stevenson, Carol's mother, was in the kitchen, face down
Speaker 1: on the linoleum floor, shot once on the right side
Speaker 1: and once on the left side of her head. Billy
Speaker 1: Senior was found inside the master bedroom's bathroom, no clothes on,
Speaker 1: shot six times head, neck, face, chest, left abdomen, and
Speaker 1: left upper arm. He also had contusions, abrasions and lacerations
Speaker 1: on his face, neck, and back. I've seen the crime
Speaker 1: scene photos. Billy's right hand was frozen in place like
Speaker 1: he was holding a weapon, finger curved around an imaginary trigger,
Speaker 1: but no gun was recovered near his body. Despite the
Speaker 1: four bodies being found inside the burned home, this was
Speaker 1: the only one to have been extensively burned to the
Speaker 1: point of being nearly unrecognizable. So when we got out
Speaker 1: on the lawn, I told him, I said, do this
Speaker 1: for me, Bob. I said, uh, see if you can
Speaker 1: put it out so we'll have a crime scene. And
Speaker 1: what was the fire like at this time? It was
Speaker 1: coming through, pieces were dropping down off the ceiling. Uh.
Speaker 1: Smoke was really heavy, so it wasn't no time. And
Speaker 1: Chief how came back to me and said, we're not
Speaker 1: gonna be able to save it. It's gonna go down.
Speaker 1: He said, the second floor is going to come into
Speaker 1: the first floor. And I said, we'll get him out
Speaker 1: of there, and that's when his men hauled him out
Speaker 1: there and put him on the on the yard. By
Speaker 1: this point, Craton was joined on the scene by other
Speaker 1: members of the Claremont County Sheriff's Department, including Detective Tom Cooper,
Speaker 1: the guy who would ultimately lead the Investigation. Cooper is
Speaker 1: one of those old school detectives you look at and
Speaker 1: you think, if I'm a crime victim, this is the
Speaker 1: guy I want looking into my case. Well, we knew
Speaker 1: Linda and the family was alive eleven. The fire start
Speaker 1: at three, so it had be between say midnight and
Speaker 1: probably three o'clock in the morning. We looked at the
Speaker 1: crimes and we knew we can handle some of it,
Speaker 1: but it was going to be a intense crime scene.
Speaker 1: So the sheriff hads some contacts with FBI and b
Speaker 1: c I, so he asked for assistance from FBI on evidence,
Speaker 1: maybe sending on evidence up to their lab, which they granted,
Speaker 1: and Ohio b c I came down Ohio Bureau of
Speaker 1: Criminal Investigation to help us for crime saying, we found
Speaker 1: some shell case sayings to the drawers been pulled out,
Speaker 1: we have a bunch of pornography, as Detective Cooper explains,
Speaker 1: shell casings from two different guns, a twenty two caliber
Speaker 1: and a thirty eight caliber littered the Stevenson's house. Three
Speaker 1: separate fires had been set, one on the second floor
Speaker 1: too on the first After the bodies were removed, the
Speaker 1: top floor collapsed onto the first and although dresser and
Speaker 1: kitchen drawers have been pulled open, many expensive items, including
Speaker 1: jewelry and art, were left behind, not to mention the
Speaker 1: arsenal of guns Billy Stevenson kept inside that house, a
Speaker 1: couple over his bed, a few in the bathroom, even
Speaker 1: several tucked away in the living room and dining room.
Speaker 1: It was hard to consider robbery as a motive to
Speaker 1: kill four people, including a small child, when so many
Speaker 1: valuable items had been left behind. One thing was for certain.
Speaker 1: Whoever did this was clearly familiar with the layout of
Speaker 1: the Stevenson's five thousand square foot home. Well. When Deptha
Speaker 1: Cragon went in, he observed right down that had bold
Speaker 1: wounds still the head, so we knew it was homicide.
Speaker 1: It was. The fire was set after the homicide to
Speaker 1: destroy evidence. For Cooper in the Sheriff's department. Finding and
Speaker 1: speaking to everyone who was at the house that night
Speaker 1: was going to prove essential, and that included Billy and
Speaker 1: Lynda Stevenson's daughter Carol Thompson. I don't remember exactly what happened.
Speaker 1: It was an FBI agent and Clament County was there too,
Speaker 1: and this officer had asked me something I answered honestly,
Speaker 1: I never lied to them. There was one time I
Speaker 1: might have distorted a little bit, but I never lied.
Speaker 1: And he said to me, well, exactly where were you
Speaker 1: In the next episode of Paper Ghosts? And as soon
Speaker 1: as it hits, I see wosh alb about what if
Speaker 1: I beat a Diana a fire and I'll have the
Speaker 1: biggest holy shit, We're all going to die the way
Speaker 1: they Stevensons were killed. There was execution stile on all
Speaker 1: of them, but each one of the victim kind of
Speaker 1: gunshot win to the head. The house is small, Rain,
Speaker 1: I don't know exactly what all's went down. Here is
Speaker 1: I'm walking up the hill that game a little bit
Speaker 1: says there he is. He murdered them, murdered them. Paper
