The Haunting of Doris Bither | Morbid | Podcast
In the summer of 1974, paranormal investigators and UCLA students Barry Taff and Kerry Gaynor were approached in a bookstore by a woman who’d overheard their conversation about the supernatural and said she had a friend who needed help from someone with their expertise. The friend in question was Doris Bither, a middle-aged single mother of four who claimed she and her family were under attack from unseen entities in their Culver City, California home.
According to Doris, the attacks began several months earlier and included, among other things, objects moving on their own, the presence of inexplicable foul odors in the house, unusual noises with no point of origin, and most distressingly, multiple physical and sexual assaults that were increasing in frequency and intensity.

I love the recording of the "loud discussion" they were having in the library! So weird they sound like you two! 😂😂
Perfect timing! Just got off work using this on my commute :)) thanks ladies❤
You guys should do an episode on the Watts Family Murders or Crystal Rogers, you guys are my favorite True Crime podcast, keep it up!
I have checked every day for the new episode hell yes I'm too excited 🤣🤣
❤😂🎉 I am in live with morbid I've gotten my entire family on this
This sounds like book The Entity
I'm definitely sceptical in general but there was very little about this case that challenged that. It definitely felt like a woman who'd fallen on hard times, struggling mentally, not getting the help they deserved.
Where can u see the photos and thank you for hard work but fun you make me laugh smile cry human emotions is always good
Aint too many people that cld call me a weirdo n get away with it but damm i like it when u guys say it 🤣🤣
I work in an office with little kids and I call them little weirdos too
Could she have been possessed and that is why the paranormal activities continued regardless of her location? Just thinking about the house of music and magic world episode that you previously did. P.S . ❤❤❤❤❤❤ Morbid
When you say you post things for us to see, where do you mean? Sorry I'm new here. Love the banter between you two!
Say oh no I just ripped an peace of hair out
Yay Weirdos, I'm hoping y'all have a joyfully evening! 💜
PS 1st commentor! 🎃👻
If they would just stick to telling the stories and completely scrap the bs commentary and banter the podcast would have grown so much faster and be so much better. They stop to much. It makes it impossible to listen
