Furthermore, the sulfur-type smell had also returned, as well as a “constant hum” that all present could hear.

They also managed to speak to the police department who were seemingly happy to assist in the team’s investigation, although they wished to do so “quietly”. This, of course, suited Batey, who very much wished to work away from the glare of the media and onlookers.

Although, at least in retrospect, it appeared that Marcia was only confessing to some of the more recent incidents, it soon snowballed – perhaps helped along by the police – into giving them a reason to ultimately close the case as a complete hoax. And they would waste little time in making their decision public (something, incidentally, which helped in dispersing the crowd outside the house). The police would also recommend that Marcia was taken for counseling, something that her parents agreed to.
