Ep 293: The Entity with Xavier Ortega Part 1

When I talked to James, I did tell him that he and I were going to share the story, but I made him a promise that whatever I write, I was not going to let anybody change it, because I was sticking to the truth.
— Tonight’s guest Xavier Ortega on interviewing Doris Bither’s son.
 

Description:

Astonishing Legends finally tackles the infamous Entity haunting case from the 1970s, featuring an exclusive interview with researcher Xavier Ortega from GhostTheory.com. This is the story of Doris Bither, a single mother in Culver City, California, who was repeatedly assaulted by spectral entities in her home. Xavier shares new information from his interviews with Bither's sons, providing unprecedented insight into the family's experiences. For the first time, it's revealed that the paranormal activity began after Bither attempted to communicate with entities through Ouija board seances. Listeners will hear about strange phenomena witnessed by multiple observers, including apparitions, unexplained noises, and physical attacks. Scott, Forrest, and Xavier will share details of spectral assaults in Part 1 of this series that most folks haven’t heard about. This is a deep dive into one of the most disturbing paranormal cases in American history, with new revelations that have never before been shared publicly.

 
 
 

Location:

11500 W Braddock Drive in Culver City, California, the street where Doris Bither and her family lived during her spirit oppression.
