GARY, INDIANA — A spooky scandal has once again rocked the quiet streets of Gary this October.

Maximillian Bader, who months ago shot to international fame after his claims to be dating a ghost named Creepy Cathy, was recently proven to be a fraud by infamous paranormal investigators, Edwina and Larry Parron.

Bader was featured on Dr. Phil last June, asserting that he had begun a sexual relationship with the ghost that haunts his grandmother’s home, where he resides with her.

According to Bader, the relationship began on Halloween of last year, just after he fell asleep viewing Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining. “Yeah last thing I remember was drifting off during that scene with the naked old lady in the bathtub, then waking up to Cathy hovering over me.” said Bader.

“She was about 75 in a long flowing nightgown and had no teeth. She said she died of lack of dick in her mouth and wanted to get me off.” Bader stated on the talk show, where he used his semen stained sheets in the morning as proof.

Bader insisted on the show that his love for Creepy Cathy has nothing to do with his grandmother Katherine, whom he lives with.

This Dr. Phil appearance caught the attention of the ghost-hunting Parrons, who gained fame for the notorious ghost orgies they hold in their Nebraska residence.

“We are the world’s premier paranormal sexual activity investigators, so we knew we had to check out Max Bader and his ghoulfriend as soon as we heard about it.” Said Edwina, upon arriving to Gary.

The Parrons set up a camera in Mr. Barron’s basement bedroom in order to capture the spooky sodomy on film. They also made an agreement with Mr. Bader to post the video on their niche porn site, PosessedPenis.com.

However, as soon as Mr. Bader fell asleep, the Parrons become alert to his ruse.

Mr. Parron describes the scene, “He just got hard and started to thrash around a little until he released a classic wet dream. We see a lot of these fake cases, so it’s easy to spot the warning signs.”

Mr. Bader, who is under arrest for fraud due to his GoFundMe to buy his lover a high-tech sex doll to possess, was heard saying as he was being placed into the back seat of a police vehicle, “I… I thought she was real.” He then began to sob.

Bader’s grandmother, who again shares a name and physical characteristics with her own grandson’s dream woman, declined to comment.
