[Heather] Legend has it that a hundred years ago,
there was a man named Samuel Graybill,
who was the richest man in Texas.
He had a beautiful wife and three happy children.
And he wanted to build a majestic house in Carp.
But the land he chose was believed to be cursed.
[wood creaking]
Graybill didn't believe in curses
and built the house anyway.
After they moved in, Graybill and his family
played a game every day.
When he came home, he'd knock four times
and wait ten seconds before he entered...
[knocking on door]
...so his perfect wife and children
could come greet him at the door.
Knock four times. Exactly four.
Then close your eyes and count to ten.
What-what happens after ten seconds?
Don't worry. Everyone around here does it.
Okay.
[dog barking in distance]
[inhales]
[Heather] However, one day he came home
and didn't knock, so he could surprise his wife.
One...
- [Heather] He snuck into his bedroom... - Two...
...and found her in the arms of another man.
Three...
[screaming]
[Heather] In a fit of rage, he killed his wife...
- [woman screams] - ...and his children,
and buried them in the walls of the house.
In his grief, he hung himself from the bell tower.
Now Graybill's ghost curses all lovers
who enter the house, and they will hear the bells ring
before their beloved one dies.

Graybill's ghost, and he cursed all of those in love
so that they know real fear, to see the one they love die.

Used to give Ruby Anne nightmares.
That's 'cause you told me Graybill snatched little girls

Dad was a rodeo champion.
He was one of the best in the circuit, actually.
Mom would always say that,
for Dad, the rodeo was like going to church.
Well...
They split up, when Dayna and I were in grade school,
and, uh, you know, he'd-he'd be around
for a few weeks or months at a time and then gone,

"The Cook and five to dinner, make six to tally late;
the final count's the winner, behind the hands that wait."
