Inside this investigation
This interview brings me together with Dave Spinks and host Norine to discuss the investigation and my decision to purchase the house. The chapters locate that discussion, including accounts of earlier experiences and research into the property. This is a recap, not a new live hunt. The conversation connects our reported experiences with the research that led me to purchase the property. Watch the full exchange to distinguish personal recollection, accounts about the house and interpretations of recordings.
As you watch, keep track of who is speaking and whether they are recalling an event, interpreting a recording or answering a broader question. Those differences are useful when comparing this account with an earlier investigation. The original description remains available below, and the episode navigation provides a route back through the series.

I BOUGHT ONE OF AMERICA'S MOST HAUNTED HOUSES. After spending nearly a month investigating the Welles House, I made a decision I never expected: I purchased the property. But what did we really experience inside—and why did I want to go back? I'm Tim Wood, founder of LiveSciFi. In Episode 45 of A House Worse Than Amityville, I join host Norine on DO YOU BELIEVE, alongside paranormal investigator Dave Spinks, for a firsthand discussion of our Welles House haunting investigation in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. THIS IS AN INTERVIEW AND INVESTIGATION RECAP, not a live ghost hunt inside the property. We reveal behind-the-scenes experiences, discuss recordings and strange encounters from earlier episodes, and explain how my research into the house's history influenced my decision to buy it. During our stay, the team reported possible EVPs, shadow figures, unexplained knocks, intense physical sensations, mysterious blue lights, and incidents we believed might be paranormal attacks. We also discuss the Ouija board sessions, the so-called Hell Room, and experiences that left even longtime investigators shaken. 👻 EPISODE 45 — CHAPTERS & KEY MOMENTS 00:00 — Opening: Do You Believe and the Welles House

Over the following weeks, the experiences we reported—and the historical accounts I uncovered—gave me more questions than answers. In this conversation, I explain why I chose to purchase the property and continue researching it. Dave shares his own experiences, including feeling physically ill during an investigation and hearing what sounded like multiple people moving through an otherwise quiet house. I also describe an incident in which I felt a powerful blow to my stomach while lying awake. We discuss stories about the home's past, including alleged deaths, a mysterious object said to have been hidden near the chimney, and accounts involving the Warrens. Some historical claims mentioned in this original discussion have not been independently verified and should be understood as investigative leads rather than established facts. WAS THE WELLES HOUSE REALLY WORSE THAN AMITYVILLE? That's for you to decide. Our goal was to document what happened to us and examine possible explanations—not to ask viewers to accept every strange sound or experience as supernatural proof. 👻 READ THE WELLES HOUSE HISTORY & HAUNTING:
