Anyone else notice this about this story from Gary, Indiana?
This one:
A woman whose horrific experience living in an Indiana home that she and even city police are convinced was a haunted 'portal to hell' has spoken out on her paranormal trauma and what it was like to be a family possessed.
Latoya Ammons says she has seen her own daughter levitate off a bed, her son walk up a wall so effortlessly that even a psychiatrist was at a loss and was herself the victim of demonic possession in what appears to be an average home in the Gary community near where Michael Jackson grew up.
'Me and my mother and my children, we almost lost our lives,' said Ammons, whose undeniably terrifying experience left her chilled to her core and now has an entire nation captivated by her spectral tale.
Ammons sat with Inside Edition for a deeply earnest interview in which she makes abundantly clear that her ordeal was no Casper the ghost made real.
'This was obviously demons,' she said. 'Not just random spirits. There is a difference.'

No skeptics brought in. None.
This is going to end up like the "Amityville Horror," a scam that is like the Energizer Rabbit, just keeps going and going...
Or like this Texas fiasco, a "psychic" said she saw "mass graves."

The only answer that makes sense is "scam."

Bagans bought the home dubbed "a portal to hell" by police officials and witnesses who had encountered a wide range of supernatural activity firsthand for $35,000, and according to TMZ, he plans to live there and document his experience.
"If it's true this home is a portal to hell, then I want to go there and see what happens," Bagans told TMZ.
The house was recently vacated by the Ammons family who insist they were tortured by nearly 200 demons since November 2011 and underwent multiple Catholic exorcisms to rid their bodies of the evil spirits, the Indianapolis Star reported.

The story is good as it is, Maginot said. You dont need to go crazy with it.
Maginot said he also signed a contract with Zak Bagans, host and executive producer of Ghost Adventures on the Travel Channel, to make a documentary.
