Today on the Grape Talks, dealing with demons, a conversation with Eric Vitale.

Eric Vitale. Eric Vitale grew up in a strong Italian household where the idea of ghosts was simply accepted as a way of life.

It wasn't talked about much, but it was just as real as green grass.

He would grow up seeing rituals performed when needed, prayers being said for those in need,

and an entity that would befriend his little brother.

Loop series, and a member of the New England

Society for Psychic Research. This is the story of what brought Eric into the world of the

supernatural. Well, actually, it was childhood. I grew up in New Jersey. I live in Connecticut

I loved it.

So every Saturday, we would go to my aunt-uncle's house, and they lived in Glenridge, New Jersey.

And it was a big, beautiful,

old colonial house. And one thing that, oh, I will never forget about it, it had the infamous

looking Amityville windows on the top, and that always kind of freaked me out when I was a kid.

Yeah. But where it started, actually, I remember one morning, we were all sitting there eating

breakfast together, and I looked up on the cabinet, and I said, you know, Pat, who's

murmur?

Now, my cousin Danny had made a family tree with all his brothers and sisters on it.

Yeah.

But there was someone on there, and it said murmur.
