The first episode was actually decent and I thought it was going to be about similar instances. But, the second episode was what made it laughable and outrageous, and ILLEGAL. "The Slaughterhouse" is unbelievable for a few reasons. I can understand why the kids lived in fear and I can go so far as to say that maybe something in the house or around it, given that the claim is the "house" was built over Native American burial ground, and that it altered the personalities of the occupants. What I find very hard to believe is that, according to this family, their parents and grandparents were serial killers who killed an unknown number of people, "stays," and not once was there ever any notice of it. Now, given that this supposedly occurred in the 70s it's not too far a stretch that people would travel about and never be heard from again. But, even families will start to wonder after a while.
The Slaughterhouse episode was too outrageous because at NO time were the police ever mentioned. All of the family members also admitted to hiding evidence in an investigation, and I am not talking about when they were young where no one would believe them or would get them in deeper trouble. No, they talked about as adults they know that people are buried or think they are and are not saying anything to the police about it, keeping it secret and even talked of burning it by calling the fire department. Hello? I am not completely sure of this, but the fire department would want to know why they wanted it burned, it's a murder scene. It's not that I think things like that couldn't happen, but at no time did anyone ever think of notifying the police. Oh, and then one of them allowed their mother, a co murderer of unknown number of people, to live with her. Stockholm Syndrome maybe? It's not laughable because it's funny that this may have happen, but the "family's" logic is so messed up. They will tell their story on some stupid show, but not to the police? That's laughable.
The third one was not as bad but it was stupid too full of someone wanting to tie a poltergeist to them, for some reason, a overly religious nutbag mother and after that, I just stopped watching, I couldn't even finish episode 3 or 4 because it became so absurd.
I can't believe Netflix would actually take the time to do this.
