Sass Wednesday Ep. 1 Notes | A Haunting in Connecticut
Added 2018-02-20 15:57:47 +0000 UTCSo tomorrow debuts my Sass Wenesday series, and we begin with the series A Haunting. This is a special episode - about an hour and a half, whereas regular episodes are the standard 45-ish minutes - about an actual haunting story.
FOREWARD:
- I remember being fucking obsessed with this show for quite a few years now. It was a weird phase where I just couldn’t get enough of these stories of the hauntings people have experienced. Of course, we’re going to be discussing them as their own self-contained stories separated from whatever truth there is in these events.
- As such, I mean no ill will to the actual family who experienced this, as this legit happened. I’m only speaking of the versions portrayed within this episode. Think of it as a self-contained AU ripe for shredding.
- If I wind up haunted because of this expect me to vlog about it.

ACTUAL GODDAMN EPISODE:
- I’m gonna guess the Parker fam is fucked.
- Why am I watching this later in the day? No fucking clue (Other than that I’m a moron.).
- I’m liking the eerie atmosphere so far, actually. The narrator is livin’ this role up.
- Only 14. God, poor Paul. I can’t even imagine what it’s like to go through a cancer that bad so young.
- An 8 hour drive to go see the doctor. That’s fucking rough.
- Not to get too political, but I’m not a fair of the private healthcare system. It’s just such an extra burden what the finances can do to an already suffering family (That, and universal healthcare costs less - $32 billion a year compared to the $48 billion we already spend in the U.S., and gives care to people based on need rather than their wealth. When people mention the wait times, really it’s for surgeries or treatments that aren’t life-threatening, like plastic surgery.).
- Aaand it got political fuck my life.

- Okay this house does look nice, but knowing already that it’s haunted, I’m like “NOPE. NOPE NOPE NOPITY NOPE NOPE NOPE.” But then again, they have no real choice. It’s either this, or continue the 8 hour drives.
- The lesson is if it’s a nice place available for cheap, it’s probably because Death is waiting for you in there.
- Nice use of the saws for adding to the atmosphere. My god, I thought it was the creepy music for a second.
- Also creepy basements are creepy.
- Aaaand it’s an old morgue. Of course it is.
- I remember I went to a funeral when I was younger - can’t remember who it was for, I think it was my great maternal grandmother, but I’m not 100% sure - and me and my cousins hung out in the basement, and there were these doors that looking back definitely led to a morgue. God that thought is fucking creepy.
- How did no one tell them beforehand it was a funeral home? Seriously, what the fuck, this is something you should have to disclose.
- OH SHIT SHE MOPPIN’ BLOOD OH LAWD NO.
- Why would you not stop, though? Like wouldn’t you see one streak of blood and then stop and go “Wut?” NOT COVER THE WHOLE DAMN FLOOR WITH IT.
- “Oh no am I ruining the floor?” BITCH THAT’S BLOOD YOUR CONCERN SHOULD BE “WHERE DID THE BLOOD COME FROM?”
- OH NO THE WHISPER. DARTH VADER.
- Inner voice? Are you kidding me? BITCH, YOU JUST MOPPED BLOOD.
- White people be like “LET’S WALK RIGHT INTO THE DEATH TRAP.”
- OH JOY RANDOM CREEPY WOMAN
- “We saw a guy in the basement.” “It was really dark and we couldn’t see it.” Way to negate your damn statement.
- Oh yeah, sure, let’s just keep all our food in the fucking morgue. I mean, I know it’s outta desperation, but god that is fucking creepy.
- “MOM, I JUST HEARD A VOICE DOWNSTAIRS CALLING FOR PAUL.” “Where’s the bread?” PRIORITIES (Also me as a parent).
- Aaaaand cue the creepy voice calling to Paul. Fuck to the no please.
- PAUL, MAYBE DON’T FOLLOW THE VOICE.
- Okay pitch black eyes are terrifying. They just are.
- Damn edgy kids and their evil rock ‘n’ roll.
- Oh god never challenge a demon unless you have a death wish.
- Oh hell no, breathing mattresses? Fuck to the no.
- WHY WOULD YOU LEAVE THE GROUP MY GOD HAVE YOU NEVER SEEN A HORROR MOVIE MAN???
