DESCRIPTION

Craig: Well, supposedly, back in the thirties, this farmer, Mordechai Murdoch, used to live in the house with his six daughters. It was during the Depression. His crops were failing. He didn't have enough money to even feed his own children. So, I guess that’s when he went off the deep end.

Sam: How?

Craig: Well, he figured it was best if his girls died quick rather than starve to death. So he attacked them. They screamed, begged for him to stop. But he just strung them up, one after another. And then, when he was all finished, he turned around and hung himself. Now, they say that his spirit is trapped in the house forever, stringin’ up any other girl who goes inside.

– Craig Thursten and Sam Winchester, 1.17 Hell House

HISTORY

Mordechai Murdoch was an accidentally created tulpa based on a story created Craig Thursten and his cousin Dana.

The story spreads to the internet via the Hell Hound's Lair website, where images of a Tibetan spirit sigil that Craig and his cousin painted in an abandoned farmhouse, concentrate the viewer's thoughts and their thoughts manifest as Mordechai.

Mordechai was destroyed when his physical base, the Hell House, was burned down by Dean.
