In the premiere episode of "Dark Disturbances," we give a brief chronicle of the haunting that changed the lives of several close family members and led to the formation of AlterWorld Paranormal many years later.

If necessary, these corrections and more historically accurate information will be presented here and in future episodes of "The Clark Street Haunting" docuseries.
