Hour 2: Bob Cranmer
Businessman, author, and former politician Bob Cranmer joins the show in the second hour to discuss his book, The Demon of Brownsville Road: A Pittsburgh Family’s Battle with Evil in Their Home, which is based on his own family’s true story.
It wouldn’t be Halloween without a scary tale about a haunted house. But Bob Cranmer’s story takes haunted to a whole new level. Bob and his family were tormented by an evil presence set on destroying their tight-knit household. Bob joins me this evening to discuss the harrowing true story he and his family went through and the epic spiritual war he fought to save everything he held dear.
Lawyers, paranormal investigators, psychologists, and clerics witnessed terrifying events at the house on Brownsville Road, adding proof that this “demon” was real. The story of the house and what the Cranmer family endured was documented by the Discovery Channel as well.
Bob Cranmer is director of Cranmer Consultants based in Pittsburgh. He’s also held a number of high-ranking political offices in Pennsylvania, where he is a well-known and respected community leader. Bob has written numerous op-ed pieces for the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on local and national issues, and has appeared frequently on radio and television, including Geraldo, and has testified before Congress on C-Span.
