However, Ray Garton, the author of the book (a a Creator/DiscoveryChannel documentary) was based on, has admitted that the "true story" was a fabrication.

He brought his concerns to Ed and Lorraine Warren, the case investigators and self-professed "demonologists" (who, not coincidentally, also investigated the Amityville case); they reportedly told him to "make it up and make it scary".
