This week we discuss another case that allegedly has some spooky elements, since it’s Halloween until at least October 31st. Brookfield, Connecticut is a quaint, picturesque New England town. But, Brookfield has a sinister history… and by sinister I mean, it unfortunately made history for being the first place in the United States to attempt to use possession by Satan himself as a defense.
Now known as The Devil Made Me Do It case, and the inspiration behind The Conjuring: The Devil Made Me Do It (it was not a good film), we dive into the events leading up to February 16th, 1981, when Arne Johnson brutally murdered his landlord, Alan Bono.

Spoiler alert: The Warrens are involved, again.
