In 1931 the Irvings started hearing scratches in the wall. At first they put it down to rodents or maybe a dog, but one night they heard something that sounded like a baby babbling in the attic. The creature in the walls revealed itself as Gef, the spirit of a mongoose/weasel, able to shape shift, split the atom and speak. Gef continues to captivate the imagination and remains a mystery to this day.
