The Grady Hill House? Why do you want to know about that, no one ever goes up there since the...incident. Say, you're not from around here are ya? Well, I'd stay far away from there.

So my father-in-law passed away from dementia recently so I've been thinking about this a lot. Some family members could not be arsed (to borrow a phrase) to really care for him over the last several years, and from their viewpoint he
