At the intersection of Westminster and Weybosset Street in Providence Rhode Island is a site that has puzzled many. It has been called the Turk’s Head Building. Rumors of secret organization, religious cults, and eccentric men have been circulating around this fair city for as long as I can remember. In my search for the truth, I discover that some of these rumors contain a measure of truth.

Geepers and I were settled at an eatery in Coventry RI reviewing our plans for a quick recon for one of our investigations. Our conversation quickly drew the attention of some of the locals. Having over heard pieces of our conversation, they were curious as to what we were all about. Cautiously we explained what we did and after a few confused stares and shared chuckles, their own personal stories began to surface. One particular tale that caught our attention concerned a strange family.
