S4. Case 3: The Platte County Poltergeist

Lisa and her young family build their dream home in rural Missouri. Before they’ve even unpacked, strange events begin. Lights switch themselves on each night, footsteps echo around empty rooms, objects move by themselves.

As events escalate, is Lisa imagining things or is someone living there alongside them? And how can a brand-new house be haunted?
