00:02:20
named Frank so it says I have one lengthy tail for you with one or two Meandering but relevant detours my
00:02:27
favorite kind I have known from an early stage in life that I have been shall we
00:02:31
say sensitive to things around me that most people spend their entire lives in Blissful unawareness of my first
00:02:37
paranormal experiences came in a way it often does for bored kids growing up in a [ __ ] in shitty neighborhoods with no
00:02:44
money for the real thing and almost ever an almost ever present concern for me and my friends we often took to
00:02:50
improvising and making do as we could for my then best friend that often meant setting fires and using a magnifying
00:02:57
glass to torture ants and the like seriously I'm more than a little amazed that he isn't a serial killer by this
00:03:03
point in truth I don't know that he isn't as we haven't spoken in a couple of decades and now live in different
00:03:10
continents as I moved from my hometown of Sunderland in the northeast of England you know it you're from Mass and
00:03:16
you have one of your very own and now live in Los Angeles I love that he's like he might be a
00:03:21
serial killer who knows I don't know anyway as I was saying when we went kicking around causing trouble or
00:03:27
running from that fires that had gotten out of control with the sound of sirens closing in we used to Cobble things
00:03:33
together to keep ourselves entertained one such misguided example of this was a phase we went through of homemade Ouija
00:03:39
boards oh no we would Cobble them together from letters drawn on scrap paper and then rip down to size and
00:03:46
arranged in a circle I shoot 10 times scarier so chilling yeah a shot glass for a planchette thrown into the mix and
00:03:55
we would yell at ghosts for attention wow one typically damp English summer we got to doing this almost on the daily
00:04:01
and contacted what claimed to be the same Spirit repeatedly I cannot for the life of me bring its name to mind so I'm
00:04:08
just gonna call the little [ __ ] Casper even though he was anything but friendly
00:04:12
so as subsequents Supercuts I like that word go it is quite frankly shy right well just what is it I don't know look
00:04:22

00:05:21
Denison of Hell [ __ ] started to get wild my mother I love that Denizen of hell I
00:05:26
know you're really good at writing you are Alan because you're English my mother bless her innocent heart like to
00:05:31
collect porcelain dolls for what I can only presume is reasons of closeted sadism as those [ __ ] are terrifying
00:05:38
one of the little shits lived on top of the Welsh dresser in an Alcove in the corner of the living room and I swear to
00:05:45
God this thing's head started rotating Allah Reagan from The Exorcist no thank you my friends booked it leaving me to
00:05:51
dismantle the board and close the unexpected portal to hell that had just yawned open its maw in the middle of the
00:05:57
living room when I joined them outside what was to me a at most two or three minutes they
00:06:04
swore blind I had been gone something closer to 20. yay for lost time oh and as a side note from then on every time
00:06:12
it was thunder and lightning from then on a baby could be heard screaming from my parents bedroom
00:06:18
the [ __ ] oh my God also sorry if you hear crackling I'm readjusting either I have some kind of dubious gift or or I
00:06:26
opened a door I have been unable to close on that day as ever since I've been a [ __ ] magnet for spectral
00:06:32
[ __ ] anyway now I have rambled enough time to get to the to the Grist when I was 21 I
00:06:40
moved to the United States and Via four years working on cruise ships and a wander around various States I ended up
00:06:46
in California which is where I am now California there you go uh Meandering to the point I was living in a house in
00:06:54
Temecula sorry I almost said temekola did the inside voice in my head here it is I was living in a house in
00:07:05
Temecula which the landlord sold without warning forcing me to move in with a friend one town over in Murrieta at
00:07:12
short notice the house was something of a menagerie sprawling I do too it's a good one sprawling and home to assorted
00:07:19
weirdos I need to paint you a picture of the layout of this rather large cookie cutter deposit at the end of a
00:07:25
cul-de-sac downstairs had a full guest Suite attached to the main house but fully equipped as a functioning studio
00:07:31
apartment upstairs my bedroom was directly above that and located halfway down an open hallway that overlooked an
00:07:37
entrance hall before coming to my room at the top of the stairs you passed my friend C's bedroom and then her daughter
00:07:44
Elle's room then after passing my room separated by a shared bathroom was my friend's younger sister Dee's room keep
00:07:52
this layout in your mind as it becomes important soon another important thing to note is that
00:07:57
all the adults in the House Bar my friend's husband M who was a combat veteran with severe complex PTSD and Dee
00:08:04
who was trying hard to be a model and succeeding only at being a problem or Casino where Casino dealers or
00:08:12
supervisors at the same time at the same casino and as such all worked nights okay now back down now back to the
00:08:19
downstairs studio living there was a lady named T her teenage son and her toddler son t t there you go all in a
00:08:27
studio mind you with one bed oh my God weird setup I am something of a magnet for neglected Strays which I don't mind
00:08:34
as I love kids and every afternoon when I would sit on the couch in the entry hall reading before work the toddler
00:08:40
would come and hang out with me being a mini person in Vietnamese so trying to learn two languages at the same time he
00:08:46
wouldn't say much that I understood however occasionally he would point at the empty air and say the lady the lady
00:08:53
put that in your Noggin and let's ratchet this up to 11. no lying on my bed one night on my day off and with the
00:09:01
window open for air cause [ __ ] the desert I heard T's voice directly yelling below me yelling if you don't
00:09:07
shut up and behave you're going back in the closet yep toddler in the closet no of course I told C the next day as it
00:09:15
was her house I also went driving to work with another friend R told her what had happened the night before
00:09:21
immediately she tells me her mom who is a medium and lives with her woke up last
00:09:26
night from A Dream screaming about how she had to help the boy in the closet what okay [ __ ] had just gotten very real
00:09:32
apparently an old lady had come to her in her dream and led her to the house to a house where she was told a boy was
00:09:39
locked in a closet inside and was in danger oh my God R's mom agreed to come to the house and try and help that night
00:09:45
after work fast forward eight or nine hours and the three of us me R and her mom are standing at the front door
00:09:51
opening said front door and at this point naively still not taking this as seriously as I should be I take off my
00:09:58
suit jacket and walk straight upstairs to dump it on my bedroom floor halfway up I suddenly hit a cold spot like
00:10:04
beyond cold the kind of cold that makes your chicken skin handbag pull your bowl
00:10:08
Bullocks up into your abdomen for safekeeping he's talking about a scrotum uh I was
00:10:17
really really trying to figure out I saw it on your face I was like I am chicken
00:10:22
skin chicken skin handbag pull your bollocks up into your abdomen for safe keeping that is a phenomenal way of
00:10:30
saying this apparently at least according to Mom I had just walked right through her mom
00:10:36
starts having a chat with this discount La Llorona and finds out that it is toddler's Grand on the dad's side and
00:10:43
the boy needs to be helped as he is being abused apparently this didn't go over very well
00:10:49
as when Mom asked her to trot off into the light she grew angry and her old mom who is a tiny old cancer surviving
00:10:56
Filipina lady who is clinging to life out of stubbornness more than bigger into the wall oh my God at this point
00:11:02
all hell breaks loose R is crying mom is moaning I'm swearing loss does to anything else to do and after checking
00:11:09
on Mom I paced around and happened to pass the door to this clearly cursed guest studio now it was my turn to be
00:11:16
roughed up a little bit as I felt a force on my shoulders pushing me to the ground anyway after paying after much
00:11:22
praying by Mom and puckering of bunghole By Me The Wraith left and it was all over or so we thought
00:11:29
soon after child services became involved and C made tea move out God only knows what happened to that poor
00:11:35
toddler I still carry no small amount of guilt and regret over the whole situation it was a mess all around and I
00:11:41
can only hope he is in a better place for a brief period there was relative calm and Harmony in the house at least
00:11:47
as much as they could be given the circumstances of the Misfits clustered there together slowly but steadily a
00:11:53
heaviness settled over the house a brooding presence one that was a fleeting glimpse of out of the corner of
00:11:59
the eye when walking through a door or the burning boring of the burning of eyes boring into the back of your neck
00:12:05
when sat alone in the evening tensions ratcheted up M and C split with them moving downstairs DD was a near constant
00:12:13
shitster L A young teen never left her room and I did much the same things continued to escalate
00:12:20
exponentially the hallway upstairs became heavy with a feeling of tread that clung to it in a thick miasma
00:12:25
miasma is one of my favorite words also a good Ghost Song now every time that one comes on I just go my ass mom
00:12:36
she does can confirm now I said we all work nights this of course meant that whenever I got home it was already dark
00:12:43
and CNM sloppy housekeeping meant a lack of bulbs okay quick aside for real that
00:12:48
house was both both cavernous and unkempt there was once a half-eaten chicken wing left by the front door that
00:12:54
was there so long I gave the little fella name Frank and I were tight right up until my desire to not have rotten
00:13:00
food on the floor overrode my reluctance to clean up after a grown-ass woman is me walking The Green Mile to my
00:13:12
bedroom with only the company of the light on my phone at least I wish that had been my only company every single
00:13:18
time I walked that Corridor I did so with someone walking right at my back inside my bubble of personal space and
00:13:24
close enough to feel hot breath on the nape of my neck that made me have to do like a little like wipe it off the back
00:13:30
of mine when one night and almost at my bedroom door with phone in hand trying to pierce the black a text came through
00:13:35
and I stopped to look at it this caused the thing at my back to stop too and by this point accustomed as I was to the
00:13:42
lack of boundaries I thought whatever let me reply I thought whatever let me reply to this it was at this point that
00:13:48
it touched me its hand a Macabre spider clamoring its way over my shoulder up my
00:13:53
neck and onto my cheek now I admit this is [ __ ] horrific and I was suitably terrified it's just that
00:14:01
writing this now I know what is next so it feels somewhat insignificant by comparison oh God
00:14:06
anyway after that night I decided it was time to speak up D was like I said an instigator but for some reason her and I
00:14:14
had an understanding and a weird connection not gonna lie a good 40 of that was for me
00:14:19
for me booty dummy thing thank you for saying it say that entire sentence for me not
00:14:30
gonna lie a good 40 of that for me was the booty that thing was dummy thick I'm obsessed with you
00:14:39
so it was her that I brought it up to and it turned out it turned out she had been having an
00:14:46
even more tour in time as she was seeing Smokey apparitions coming out of the walls and wandering the house all the
00:14:52
[ __ ] time yikes I was just gonna say as soon as we could as soon as we could we Tracked Down C and I told her we
00:15:00
needed to fix this [ __ ] now remember we were shift workers with different days
00:15:04
off and although we all lived in the same house we could go days without seeing each other
00:15:08
which will hopefully explain why we hadn't told each other what had been going on sooner C said she wanted to get
00:15:14
a priest involved she was raised Catholic and well she owned the house think back if you will think back if you
00:15:19
will to Frank then think about how utterly lazy this cow was so guess who went to the church if you guessed me
00:15:26
ding ding you win a prize yay muggin's here take a takes a trip to the local Catholic church now you have to
00:15:33
understand I don't like those places I always feel like I'm Gonna Catch Fire also same I really only have one thing
00:15:40
to say about that priest complete [ __ ] he told me and I quote because you are baptized a Methodist you don't have a
00:15:47
sophisticated enough relationship with God and that is why this is happening [ __ ] you suck a dick and he said [ __ ]
00:15:54
wank Splat wank Splat wank splash I like that I'll spare you my retort and just say I left without looking back why did
00:16:02
you spare us your retort you honestly tell me yet tell me fuming I told C we were gonna do this my way and being the
00:16:08
the spooky [ __ ] I am we went to the witchcraft store in Oceanside hell yeah we need to be friends I'm extremely
00:16:16
anti-religion but not anti-dayity and do and I do have a spiritual side relatable
00:16:20
I'm familiar with the tarot having found an ancient Ryder weight deck behind a brick in an empty house a friend moved
00:16:26
into when I was 16. that's cool that's really funny that deck is older than me and has history seeped into it it has
00:16:33
now found its way to Los Angeles where I take care of it oh I'm saying this because I'm familiar with the whole
00:16:38
reading palaver and thought I knew what to expect wrong as soon as we walked into that store we were screeched at by
00:16:45
what I can still only assume was a Banshee who had given up on the whole death Malarkey and found gainful
00:16:51
employment after scaring the cats she extended a claw right at me and at D and and not D stood
00:17:00
next to me and said you you cannot live together too much emotion one of you needs to move out okay lady drama but
00:17:07
you have my attention we did the whole here's what's going on thing and sat down for a reading if the howling woman
00:17:13
was to be believed Dee and I both had a sensitivity no [ __ ] and because of feelings between us it was just being
00:17:19
Amplified in a feedback loop and we were pulling every spirit in the area towards
00:17:24
us look at you two and your Lusty lust causing all kinds of [ __ ] Shenanigans you guys kind of like caused a hellmouth
00:17:32
you did good for you yeah look at you guys are you meant to be though maybe uh you see if you create a dummy fix so I
00:17:40
think so and you created a hell about anyone referred to my booty as dummy yeah like I would think you know I think
00:17:47
we're meant to be so he said make of this what you will it's what she said who the hell knows she was right about
00:17:52
one thing at least that was for sure unresolved tension there oh oh no is this gonna turn into a fan
00:17:59
Factory oh it's gonna happen long story slightly less long they agreed to send a
00:18:05
team to the house to do a ghostbusting after the upcoming weekend which happened to be Thanksgiving being
00:18:10
English Thanksgiving is always a little lost on me and as much as I enjoy it when I get together with friends for it
00:18:15
I never never feel the lack if I spend it alone the rest of the house being all family went home to El Centro leaving me
00:18:22
having declined their invitation to join them and having to work anyway alone for
00:18:26
four days Thanksgiving night the first [ __ ] night I get home from work around two in the morning walk up the
00:18:32
driveway put my hand on the doorknob and this wave of absolute Terror washes over
00:18:37
me I'd be like well the hotel it is yup I don't have adequate words to describe how strong it was I was trembling
00:18:43
crouched down to the ground trying to curl up fetal without getting on my side oh my God I have never felt anything
00:18:49
like it and I knew if I went in that house something terrible was going to happen not being a complete idiot and
00:18:54
having seen enough horror movies I knew well enough to back the [ __ ] off and Retreat to my car smart I was already
00:19:01
calling a friend for a place to stay before I got off the driveway when I got to my car I turned around to lean on it
00:19:06
while I waited for him to answer and looked up at the window at the end of that [ __ ] hallway to see I'm still
00:19:12
not sure how to describe it it was like I saw negative space where the shape of a man should be I knew something was
00:19:19
there watching me oh that's a really good way of describing that yeah unfortunately I had to go back the next
00:19:25
day for clean clothes Etc when I got back making sure to do it in broad daylight I parked on the driveway which
00:19:31
I never did and ran inside and straight up to my room slamming the door behind me as I hardly changed into a clean
00:19:37
shirt and tie the entire house was shaking and crashing I could hear banging and slamming against the wall
00:19:43
facing that Bloody hallway I noped the [ __ ] out of there as fast as I could and
00:19:47
didn't go back until the following Monday the day Ghostbusters Busters were coming it's giving Casita right the
00:19:53
house is Maddie like Angry Casita yeah the end of Encanto yes spoiler alert when they came they rang the bell
00:20:02
because that's what people do when they come to your house I answered and I [ __ ] you not the five
00:20:07
of them stepped into the entry hall looked at each other and immediately left that's right they took one look and
00:20:13
scuttled off are you kidding no explanation an hour later the door knocks again and they are back
00:20:18
apologizing for running off they explained that they had not been ready for how bad it was and needed to prepare
00:20:24
more I could have told you that yeah you could have been like hey we'll be back shoot a text I don't know or maybe
00:20:29
they're Believers in like the Lego for some reason known to No One C wanders off leaving me to do all the
00:20:37
Talking seriously this [ __ ] they do their thing which takes about three hours and involved a lot of sage and
00:20:43
candles without enchanting when they had finished and came to report it turned out we had a total of six spirits in the
00:20:49
house I honestly thought they were gonna say more yeah ooh the one following me was a child killer in life who had been
00:20:56
executed [ __ ] that he had attached to me because he had sensed vulnerability here's where I tell you that I was
00:21:03
abused as a child by an overly friendly teacher I'm so sorry about that that's so messed up and that's really [ __ ] up
00:21:09
of that ghost yeah of course it is at the end of the hallway was a mischievous but harmless male ghost who missed being
00:21:14
alive and made all the noise trying to get our attention oh my God he had been who I saw at the window and he never
00:21:20
left that spot as to do so would would have meant he had to pass by the killer who he was afraid of oh sweet I just got
00:21:27
chills I did too downstairs there was an old lady and an unrelated old man who were just lost oh outside my bedroom was
00:21:34
the Ghost of my dad who had sensed I was in danger and came back to protect me my
00:21:39
body is warming so hard right now it's going he regularly fought with the Killer and kept him out of my room holy
00:21:46
[ __ ] that's a dad that is a dad in Elle's room her grandfather was doing much the same thing for her there had
00:21:52
been and not one but two vortexes in the entry hall downstairs and that coupled with untrained abilities on the part of
00:21:59
me and D had been a huge pillar of light pulling everything and anything in they
00:22:04
said they had closed them but if neither myself or D or preferably both of us left they would not stay closed for long
00:22:10
I took their advice and moved the [ __ ] out as soon as I could into a place where the food didn't hang around long
00:22:16
enough to gain sentience oh and you never got to hook up with d damn it darn that is my story I'm gonna include a
00:22:23
couple of short things as a follow-up just to show how often this [ __ ] happens
00:22:26
to me however feel free to leave this part out in the rare event you want to read this Behemoth out loud I just did
00:22:32
so let's see oh there's not much on this so I'll read the rest the place I live in right now is next to Sony pictures in
00:22:39
LA on the same street in fact it started I started Life as a comet it started life as accommodation for cast members
00:22:46
way back in the day when I moved in I felt the familiar presence of not being alone and always being watched One Night
00:22:53
in the early weeks I was woken up by a voice screaming leave in my ear I said I worked in casinos well I left that and
00:23:01
I'm now working on a PhD in Clinical Psychology bad ass casual my focus is adult behavior and survivors of
00:23:07
childhood sexual abuse you are a badass you are due to that and covid limiting my lab time I was conducting interviews
00:23:13
in my apartment with people I know so I could pitch an idea for more formal research later
00:23:18
when I was editing footage of one of my interviewees pausing in the recounting of their abuse to cry there was a
00:23:23
distinct female voice that said go ahead I'm listening in the background what oh
00:23:28
chills I had a psychic out again for this and it being La it was of course one of
00:23:34
those TV ones that's just how the ludicrous place works she showed up on my doorstep doorstep beating a drum and
00:23:41
dancing while chanting great impressions for new neighbors lastly I took a trip to Nashville
00:23:46
recently as a friend's kid was about to give birth and as I've known her kids since they were young she had asked for
00:23:52
me to be there oh my God somewhere in New Mexico I had dozed off in the passenger seat and woke up to a dude sat
00:23:58
between me and the driver where the middle seat would be in a truck with a bench seat he had a camera and was
00:24:03
taking pictures turned to look at me and faded out why my stomach even just went water I
00:24:09
know that was a wild one was I wanting that or the stomach [Laughter] in Nashville I had taken a nap one
00:24:22
afternoon and upon waking wandered through the living room and joined my friend outside for a smoke walking
00:24:27
through the pregnant daughter was snoozing on the couch and an old man was standing looking down at her smiling I
00:24:33
said hello and he turned to look at me and said hello back when I asked my friend who he was no old man was over
00:24:39
visiting another ghost oh my God just smiling down at a pregnant lady oh that's sweet my most recent experience
00:24:45
as recently as last month I woke up in the middle of the night to someone stepping on my bed as if they were going

00:28:41
scary red-eyed demon dude haunting my family smiley face smiley face my sister was also drafting a story about this but
00:28:47
that was a while ago and I don't know if she sent it in so sorry sis I love you I love it so it all started on that day
00:28:56
in first grade the one where you sit in a circle on the hard floor sharing your name and your favorite color now it is
00:29:03
important to say that I have had GI issues ever since I was born and also had terrible acid reflux oh relatable on
00:29:11
the on the GI issues so whatever little Natalie had eaten that morning boom straight to my [ __ ] ready to come out
00:29:18
like a rocket needless to say really had to [ __ ] I remember sitting on my knees
00:29:23
bouncing up and down anxiously waiting for the right moment to ask my teacher to go to the bathroom isn't it so [ __ ]
00:29:29
up that we have to ask another human being to cruise the [ __ ] facilities like you wouldn't have never had to [ __ ]
00:29:36
on the floor if that was the case no you should never have to ask you should just
00:29:39
be like I'm going to the bathroom because I'll be right back like if somebody needs to take like a little kid
00:29:42
you know or or anything like if even if you're an adult go to the bathroom let's
00:29:47
go to the bathroom little me was experiencing social anxiety very young and was gaining Consciousness at the
00:29:52
time and realized I could talk whenever I wanted to and it wasn't just automatic
00:29:56
and that made me nervous so my dying question of Miss can I please go to the bathroom it was lodged in the back of my
00:30:03
throat fighting to come out oh that's so sad I had waited until I really could not hold it any longer and finally asked
00:30:10
my teacher she said no oh [ __ ] that no I hate that's [ __ ] don't tell a little
00:30:16
first grader they can't go to the bathroom honestly one of the first things I'm going to teach my kids when
00:30:20
they go to school is that like if anybody ever tells you you can't go to the bathroom laugh at them and make your
00:30:24
way to the bathroom yeah one thing you shouldn't say no to is a little kid saying I have to go to the bathroom
00:30:28
seriously like who the [ __ ] do you think you are that's [ __ ] like Excuse Me Miss
00:30:33
teacher but what you're gonna deny that I have to [ __ ] right now this second in
00:30:37
my pants wow okay the lady easily could you know what though I bet after this she never said no to anyone going
00:30:44
probably not remembering you taught her a lesson this lady would have easily been the beginning of my villain story
00:30:50
so not being able to go to the bathroom I had no other option than to [ __ ] in my
00:30:54
pants there probably was another option no there wasn't but oh well that was dramatic I love you so after it happened
00:31:02
my teacher then told me I could go to the bathroom that is like cruel yeah she's a bit like so she gave you a nice
00:31:09
traumatic embarrassing moment and it was like now you can go [ __ ] you what the
00:31:13
[ __ ] am I supposed to do if this specific teacher is listening right now [ __ ] you [ __ ] you your booty is not dumb
00:31:19
enough no it is not man I wanted to slap her but off I went waddling to the bathroom I did in fact flush my
00:31:26
underwear down the toilet because I really just wanted to hide that I just did that oh I want to hug you they
00:31:31
probably did find out after having massive friendly Plumbing issues but I digress good I hope they did yeah they
00:31:36
deserved them I had my mom pick me up and we drove to visit my uncle at the house he was working on at least I think
00:31:43
that's what was happening I don't know I was young I don't know how we got there
00:31:46
but we somehow ended up at this three-story house that my uncle was renting out as Apartments I remember
00:31:51
playing outside and barely remember anything about inside this house but I remember it being spooky fast forward to
00:31:58
a few years ago I found out that this house was hella haunted the third floor specifically so my uncle he was very
00:32:06
much in tune with the Paranormal I used to babysit for him and before he left work in the mornings he would tell me
00:32:11
stories about that house it all started when he first began working there he always felt a presence and it quote
00:32:18
unquote lived on the third floor he told me it had red eyes and that's the only feature of this entity that he
00:32:25
could make out besides a dark shadow I did some research and demons with red eyes were Once a Legend known as The
00:32:31
Legend of the weed weed Road organ maybe which began in the Flanders region of Belgium in the late 17th century after
00:32:40
reports of children who went missing and were believed to be victims of a cannibalistic shapeshifter damn it said
00:32:47
that he seeks his skin to become whole again as the Demonic figure he once was Jesus that's giving Buffy yeah it is
00:32:54
serving watch the re-watcher if you're not watching it yet yeah it's funny as [ __ ] you like listener Tales you'll like
00:33:00
that you will love the re-watching yeah go listen wherever you listen to podcasts
00:33:05
um wow that's really very nice in my [ __ ] psyche that was just in there I think I say that in my sleep during the
00:33:12
20th century the ghostly being became known as uh the Necker the Necker as part of a story told to children who
00:33:21
stayed up past their bedtime that they would be eaten alive if they didn't go to sleep damn that'll get you off to
00:33:27
Dreamland kind of scary but in this information plays a huge role later on he knew not to mess with it and he would
00:33:34
try to ignore it but Mr demon man had other plans my uncle would be working on something and would look up and find
00:33:40
himself walking across the room whatever this entity was was taking the form of my uncle like imagine seeing yourself
00:33:47
but not yourself standing right in front of you nah I would have pieced the [ __ ]
00:33:51
out this is when my uncle knew that this was more serious than he thought we never
00:33:56
went back to that house after that one day my dad however would go occasionally over to help my uncle with the work my
00:34:02
dad was also very religious and also very in tune with the Paranormal there was one day they were working on
00:34:08
whatever project and my dad remembers having this one intrusive thought just completely overtake his head it was
00:34:14
almost screaming at him it was telling him that someone had hung themself in the attic and to go help them whoa he
00:34:20
couldn't take it anymore and he told my Uncle knowing he would get it they ventured to the attic and there was a
00:34:25
rope hanging from a crossbar on the ceiling my uncle said he had never been up there since he started fixing the
00:34:31
place up and he didn't know it was there below the Rope there was a box of old handwritten papers but they never
00:34:37
figured out what they were that's so spooky and so tragic oh this aspect of the house was never fully figured out
00:34:45
and we have no idea how it plays into the rest of what happened so spooky after the house was completely renovated
00:34:51
and ready to be rented out [ __ ] started to go downhill I think my uncle had made
00:34:56
the tenants aware of the entity but I can't quite remember it was mainly the women that would be affected it started
00:35:02
with sheets being tugged in the middle of the night that's I don't like it and then it progressed to grabbing the
00:35:08
ankles of the wrists I hate that leaving bruises on their arms one story my uncle
00:35:13
told me really gave me the chills this only happened to one of the women she woke up in the middle of the night
00:35:18
feeling really cold and off like something was watching her she was suddenly pinned down to the bed by her
00:35:24
wrists and ankles and couldn't move her chest felt heavy like something was pressing down on her she tried thrashing
00:35:30
around to get out of the group of this entity it let go and the easy feeling she felt before it was gone she called
00:35:36
my Uncle the same night to tell him what happened he went the next morning to swear The Entity out of the house
00:35:42
there are so many other stories he told me about this house but those are the few that really stood out moral of the
00:35:48
story is this entity was no [ __ ] joke now let's go back to my stanky younger self I was wondering I was like I was
00:35:55
like where does the poop correlate the visit was short-lived and we went home and red eyes happily came home with us
00:36:00
oh what a dick what a dick indeed things quickly started to progress my sister's
00:36:04
hair would be pulled I would be pushed on the stairs oh my God I would remember being in the shower and feeling
00:36:09
something grab at my shoulders sounds pervy to me me too [ __ ] was whack truly yeah
00:36:16
no one really knows this because it still scares me to this day but this was also the time where I started
00:36:21
experiencing sleep paralysis I'm sorry I know or so I thought but now I know it was this entity tormenting me I would
00:36:28
wake up not being able to move and when I looked around I saw the Dark Shadow and red eyes staring at me from the
00:36:34
corner this dream would happen at least once a week I always had weird dreams so
00:36:39
I didn't really think anything of it at the time but this tormenting Behavior continued for a few weeks until my dad
00:36:45
faced it eye to eye it was around five or six in the evening and he was making dinner he started to feel uneasy like
00:36:51
something was watching him he looked over at the doorway that led to the porch and there it was standing in the
00:36:56
porch directly in line with the doorway watching what it had never showed itself
00:37:01
the whole time it had been at our house and we didn't know it was the thing tormenting my sister and I my dad had
00:37:06
put the pieces together and he was pissed I mean for obvious reasons like if something was tormenting my young
00:37:12
children I'd go full Mama Bear and square up with any demon hell yeah let's go let's go cage match my dad swore The
00:37:18
Entity out of our house and it left as simple as that damn you're dead it's powerful he is whatever this thing was
00:37:24
only wanted to mess with people and I'm happy it was nothing more than that where it left to we don't know but it
00:37:30
was probably mad that my stanky ass walked into his home and stunk up the place and wanted to get back at me so
00:37:35
sorry fam [Laughter] I followed us back home what a coincidence it was that the same that it
00:37:49
was the very same day I [ __ ] my pants for a few years this happened my sister and I and sometimes my dad would feel
00:37:56
uneasy whenever we drove by the house I don't get the feeling anymore which makes me wonder what our demon friend is
00:38:01
up to now hope he's living the life not being perverted or [ __ ] with people's lives me too but that's my story if you
00:38:07
want to hear the other tales of the house or my uncle's other paranormal stories let me know and I'll send them
00:38:11
in we do send them in send them in best wishes and I hope y'all keep it weird but not so weird that take it away Ash
00:38:18
not so weird that you're a teacher that tells the little kid that they can't go to the bathroom so then they end up
00:38:22
[ __ ] their pants in your classroom and you're like oh actually now you can go to the bathroom definitely keep it so
00:38:25
weird that if that happens to you you flush your underwear down the toilet because [ __ ] that school and that whole
00:38:29
entire system but don't keep it so weird that you bring a red-eyed demon home with you because you really don't want
00:38:32
to experience that and it sounds kind of messy bye yeah you know you know you know what I mean
00:38:38
don't don't do any of that I hadn't done like a good one in a while wow nice that
00:38:42

00:39:39
enjoyed this listener tale about the five years my family spent in the most well-known haunted house in our County
00:39:43
oh my God I thought that said country and I was like country like what the [ __ ] all right let's see
00:39:49
you can probably tell from the title that this story is a doozy I can let me tell you my life has been one hell of a
00:39:55
wild ride the five years my family spent in this house is just the icing on the cake but first allow me to introduce
00:40:01
myself hey y'all my name is Mary Grace and I'm from a small town in South Carolina that's such a pretty name I
00:40:08
know Mary Grace feel free to say all that out loud I found morbid about a year ago when my commute to work was an
00:40:14
hour and I desperately needed to kill time you guys were exactly what I was looking for I've been hooked since day
00:40:19
one and now I listened to every one of your episodes while I'm going to bed at night side note not the best time to
00:40:25
listen to stories of people being brutally murdered yeah I think they just did a study about that you guys are all
00:40:29
[ __ ] yeah apparently you're all [ __ ] yeah but like so are we so I love it yeah I
00:40:33
cannot tell y'all how many times I've considered writing about my haunted experiences but even thinking about some
00:40:38
of the things that happened put an uneasy feeling in my stomach today however I am determined to get it all
00:40:44
out in writing so here's to trying it all started in August 2011 about three months before my 12th birthday November
00:40:51
6th my family had grown tired of the violence that had surrounded us in our Charlotte North Carolina neighborhood
00:40:58
the last straw was drawn the day my mother was held at gunpoint in our front yard after after bravely confronting the
00:41:05
man she saw running away with my brand new bicycle the one they had spent months saving to buy me oh my God I love
00:41:10
that she was like listen up here like I will [ __ ] you up we moved in with my grandparents that night and then to a
00:41:16
different state entirely within weeks I was just about to enter middle school and my sister the 10th was the 10th my
00:41:23
sister entering the 10th grade at the time so we were not thrilled about the move to say the least that's shitty
00:41:28
timing however my parents needed to heal from the violin and fear they had endured and somehow mostly shielded my
00:41:35
sister and me from good parents I know right a Victorian home in the heart of a small town seemed like the place to do
00:41:41
it hell yeah it does so in we moved box after box we made the nearly 200 year old house a home this is like the
00:41:48
beginning of the scariest movie it absolutely is I love it I remember feeling like I was in a castle we went
00:41:53
from a thousand square foot home to a nearly 4 000 square foot one seemingly overnight damn I was in awe of it from
00:42:00
the Grand entryway to my massive bedroom with six windows I couldn't believe it was all ours I remember wondering how my
00:42:07
parents could afford a place like that but I didn't want to question it I wouldn't find out until much later that
00:42:12
the rent was extremely low due to the inability to keep tenants occupying the space AKA keep them from running out the
00:42:18
door muttering about ghosts that's right we had moved into a haunted house let's
00:42:22
go strange events began occurring almost immediately after our move it started small one day my uncle noticed
00:42:29
candlesticks on the ground in the dining room he figured they had fallen from the
00:42:32
candle holders on The Mantel so we simply picked them back up and put them back in the candle holders as he walked
00:42:37
out of the room he heard something smack the window he turned to look and the candlesticks were on the ground again
00:42:42
but this time on the other side of the room things like this continued the candlesticks were moved or thrown so
00:42:50
frequently that my mother eventually put them in a drawer in the butler's pantry
00:42:54
chairs would often slide across the room glasses mysteriously fell from the cabinets and shattered lights turned
00:43:00
themselves on and off at will and playing cards would often be found spread neatly across the living room
00:43:04
floor one day I arrived home from school and went up to my room to feel to feed miles
00:43:10
and feel my gerbil feel my gerbil to feel my gerbil to feed my gerbil as I did every day
00:43:19
I was shocked to find and honestly I never had a gerbil I don't know are they soft
00:43:24
they're probably soft right I think our gerbils like the Hamster big big hamsters yeah like the big hamsters
00:43:31
probably what's the other the other rodent that I'm thinking of guinea pig um yeah I think maybe what are gerbils I
00:43:39
don't know remember when I asked where hamsters came from yep I remember that house but you know what oh yeah they're
00:43:46
same yeah Mary Grace was shocked to find that the gerbil had passed away during the school day oh my God I'm sorry
00:43:53
heartbroken by the loss of my first pet I found a shoebox and buried him in the backyard then I went downstairs to what
00:43:59
we called a sitting room this house had so many random rooms to feed my turtle you wouldn't believe my shock to find
00:44:05
that my turtle had passed the very same day you poor little baby oh my God I chalked it up to bad luck for my very
00:44:12
well cared four pets and buried him next to the gym oh my God I can't imagine how
00:44:16
you felt that's awful a few weeks later I woke up in the middle of the night to a hand pressing the side of my face down
00:44:21
into my pillow I bet that also felt pretty awful that probably wasn't great I remember being paralyzed in fear until
00:44:28
the next morning came I was still shaking when I came down for breakfast and my mom said do you remember
00:44:32
sleepwalking last night I was confused as I had never done that before for she continued yeah you came to my bedside
00:44:39
and told me there was a man in your room I told you it was a bad dream to go back
00:44:42
to bed you turned around and left the room my dad then added it's the weirdest thing mom told me about the sleepwalking
00:44:48
and it happened at about the same time that your dog came flying downstairs and curled up in a shaking ball in my lap I
00:44:55
feel it is important to note that dog hated my dad and never ever sat with him yeah it is that's a very important that
00:45:01
is an important note soon after I'm terrified I hate this I stopped sleeping much I bet it seemed that every time I
00:45:07
closed my eyes I would have an overwhelming feeling that someone was running towards me oh
00:45:12
night after night I would sit in my room awake with the lights on until eventually exhaustion would take over
00:45:17
and I would crash until time to get up for school one night I sat awake in my bed rereading To Kill a Mockingbird when
00:45:24
something outside caught my eye I looked out the window next to my bed to see a woman in a red dress standing on the
00:45:30
sidewalk across the street she had her hair fastened in a neat bun and her dress seemed old-timey I guessed a
00:45:36
Victorian style she had stood there as if she was waiting for a ride I watched her for a minute or two and then her
00:45:41
eyes shifted up to my bedroom window I ducked down as quickly as I could hoping she hadn't seen me spying when I sat
00:45:48
back up she was gone I don't like that I had all but forgotten about her about her or excuse me I had all but forgotten
00:45:56
her about a year later I signed up to be a Storyteller at the town's Halloween Cemetery territor that's [ __ ] awesome
00:46:02
that's really [ __ ] awesome I went in a week before Halloween to find out which person buried in the Confederate
00:46:07
Cemetery I would be impersonating her name was Mary her name was Marie Wallace the older of the Wallace sisters during
00:46:14
the war her dad left home to fight with the Confederacy one day she received correspondence from him that he would be
00:46:21
returning home very soon so she put on her favorite red dress did her hair nicely and walked to the town so that
00:46:28
she may meet him when he arrived and accompany him home he didn't show day after day she put on the red dress
00:46:35
and went to town and day after day she waited for her father who never returned Marie became known as The Woman in Red
00:46:42
that was the lady outside your window that's so scary and so sad yeah legend of the Town says that on some nights
00:46:49
passerbys will see her standing in town waiting for her father who never returned when I read this information
00:46:54
about her my jaw dropped I know with my whole heart that I saw her that night before I heard even before I had even
00:47:01
heard a whisper of this story I saw Marie Wallace clear as day stuck in a loop of hopeful anticipation oh As I
00:47:08
Grew Older I became more and more accustomed to our living situation I never did sleep with the lights off in
00:47:14
my room but many nights I would fall asleep with the lights on and wake up with them off and the doors of my
00:47:19
wardrobe and my room standing wide open I don't like that the Wardrobe was there
00:47:22
when we moved in because I had no closet I decided to keep it it had a hook lock
00:47:27
on the front that I always kept hooking hooked into place but somehow it never failed that I wake up to the Wardrobe
00:47:32
doors standing wide open many nights as I laid awake I would hear the laughter of a little girl and what
00:47:39
sounded like a ball bouncing outside of my door we believe the little girl to be
00:47:43
Marie Scott very popular name at the time Marie was a five-year-old a five-year-old who died in the house she
00:47:49
was cooking over an open flame with her mother when suddenly her dress caught fire and she burned to death Jesus
00:47:55
Christ Sarah Counts from the town's doctor in our Historical Library that read no amount of morphine could stop
00:48:02
the screams of little Marie the heat of the Flames melted the fabric to her skin
00:48:06
she perished after a mere three hours jeez this my whole body is chilling oh that's horrific in total we know about
00:48:14
20 deaths in the home after Marie's death you better believe I'm looking up this home yeah are we about to cover it
00:48:21
after Marie's death the family turned it into a boarding house and then eventually it became a birthing center
00:48:26
after returning to a single family home so many of the murder house from AHS many of the day you're right many of the
00:48:33
deaths were of course mothers and babies however one death in particular happened
00:48:37
in my bedroom a woman was struck by a car in 1930 and was put in my room to rest it is said that she died before the
00:48:44
doctor could arrive oh that's freaky eventually due to matters out of our own hands we were told to move and given
00:48:49
very little notice to do so the sweet landlord that we had fostered a friendship with passed at 94 years old
00:48:55
and her strange son got the house we were living in so once again we packed up our lives to move when we started
00:49:01
packing the activity in the house got insane I was shoved down the stairs by something that I could clearly feel but
00:49:07
not see and I fractured my oh wow my sister came home from college to help with the move and complained that she
00:49:13
could not sleep because she was being woken up at Night by women crack cackling at this on the screen porch
00:49:19
connected to her bedroom just women cackling out on the bed out there just vibing just having a [ __ ]
00:49:26
time they're probably playing cards or something hell yeah just cackling I'm talking about the lady down the street
00:49:31
and she's cheating on her husband you know they were just sitting there gossiping yeah drinking sweet tea you
00:49:37
know living the crawl space into the attic was constantly coming open furniture from downstairs was being
00:49:42
found in the hallway upstairs furniture that was no more than 60 pounds became far too heavy for two people to pick up
00:49:49
it goes on and on I've never heard of that that's wild you have also never heard of that that's insane on moving
00:49:55
day I loaded all of my things to the foyer downstairs and did a quick sweep of the upstairs after all the boxes from
00:50:01
the foyer when on a trailer my mom told me to do another sweep upstairs imperfect teenager I rolled my eyes and
00:50:08
stomped back up the stairs you would never believe the way my heart started racing when I found a pile of moving
00:50:13
boxes neatly stacked in the center of my once empty home a room I quickly loaded
00:50:19
them onto the trailer and then told my mom that that I was going to walk to the new house two blocks away still in the
00:50:24
historic district after I left my mom began waxing the floors upstairs or downstairs she loved that house and
00:50:30
wanted to leave it as close to perfect condition as she could Midway through waxing my granddad a hardcore
00:50:36
non-believer and all things spooky yelled my mom's name in an alarmed tone it was until then that my mom realized
00:50:43
all the hair on her head was standing up straight as if someone was above standing above her and pulling oh my God
00:50:49
she quickly reached up and started smoothing it down at this time the front door swung open and then slammed shut
00:50:55
and the old-timey manual Bell started ringing like crazy they both made a b line for the front
00:51:01
door my granddad said the last thing he saw before slamming its shut was a snake
00:51:06
sliding down from the banister of the stairs what okay craft I'm screaming holy cow no that's my story there's so
00:51:15
so much more that happened while living there but I just picked out the things that still stand out in my mind I hope

00:53:15
Brad's tale that was wild that was wild actually it's in this folder uh hearing his story made me feel so validated for
00:53:22
what I went through so Brad if you're listening to this you're not alone and living in a crazy ass house we are in
00:53:27
this together bud I want to apologize in advance because the story is a little long but I can assure you every bit of
00:53:33
it serves a purpose I'm also not a writer so if there's any errors in this sorry y'all I never claimed to be a
00:53:38
writer never apologize don't apologize as far as trigger warnings go I might I mentioned night terrors thoughts of
00:53:44
suicide and blood but only mildly anyway here we go I met my husband Drew ah Drew silver
00:53:50
trucifer when I was 15. dating right away I met my soul mate and I'm so thankful that I had him to go through
00:53:58
this experience with all of your loves are beautiful and c and her like what is it or D
00:54:07
excuse her her stupid thick no no dummy thick booty I'm I'm like here for all of your
00:54:15
loves I love love even when it's about dummy thick booties but we got married we got married in 2013 when I turned 20
00:54:24
and and bought his grandparents home where his father and his siblings had grown up we couldn't have been any more
00:54:30
excited however that was short-lived because we barely had signed the papers for the house when one of his aunts
00:54:36
asked me if I was sure I wanted to move into a haunted house oh come on cue me looking into the camera like I'm on the
00:54:42
other on an episode of The Office like is she [ __ ] secret like she waited till we signed the paper like Stan Lee
00:54:49
is in the [ __ ] serious guy come on oh wow you just looked like him yeah you did you did the mouth thing
00:54:55
that Stanley does yes exactly me being me I just thought she was joking that was until nearly every
00:55:05
sibling had chipped it sibling had chipped in at some point about their experiences as well they range from
00:55:11
hearing voices to being held down in bed I feel like this should have been said before we agreed to buy the house but
00:55:17
whatever I told myself I'd just be Zack Baggins for a bit how bad could it be me saying that line
00:55:25
was the worst thing I ever could have said we've all been there now my husband and I did what every good horror movie
00:55:31
tells you not to do and we decided to renovate the entire house oh no it's not just a few cans of paint and
00:55:39
new appliances kind of renovation but we completely got it oh you're waking them
00:55:44
all up I'm worried that was probably our first mistake but sue me for wanting to
00:55:48
have the house of my dreams never never if I was going to be living in a haunted
00:55:52
house then I was damn sure going to make it worth it hell yeah we decided we were
00:55:56
going to gut the downstairs where our master bedroom and main living space was use the upstairs for storage and update
00:56:01
it as we could in one of the bedrooms upstairs there was a very beautiful very old dresser that had plate slate stating
00:56:08
and it I can read it was a very old dresser that had a plate stating it was made in 1912. it was strange to me
00:56:16
because the mirror wasn't even hazy like most old pieces tend to be and it was huge it was so big that they actually
00:56:22
had the upstairs built around it because it wouldn't fit down the stairs that's awesome that's wild something about that
00:56:28
seemed weird to me too but whatever it was just a dresser yeah it's important to note that during this time my husband
00:56:34
worked out of state in Pennsylvania so he was only home on one or two weekends a month which meant that I was alone in
00:56:40
that house quite a bit during the day I would go into one of the bedrooms upstairs to try to unpack our things but
00:56:46
but I would always avoid being up there at night I can't describe it but there was just a bad feeling up there so much
00:56:52
so that I couldn't even walk by the bottom of the stairs after dark either we had a small Yorkie yes I will attach
00:56:58
a photo just for you oh thank you I was literally so excited who wouldn't walk past the stairs either
00:57:03
he would walk up to them then back his way into the next room without taking his eyes off the top of the stairs he
00:57:09
had never even tried to step so much as a paw onto the steps but one day he got Brave he made it to the very top of the
00:57:16
stairs before something startled him and he jumped from the top and fell all the
00:57:21
way down the wooden steps with such force that he slammed into the wall at the bottom he was completely fine thank
00:57:27
God but he never went over there again Mikey just almost shot himself like he almost [ __ ] his pants
00:57:40
but the whole time we worked on the house we experienced small things but we didn't draw attention to it footsteps
00:57:46
flickering lights those kinds of things I told myself that that was as bad as like sorry that if that was as bad as it
00:57:53
got then I was fine it was weird but I could deal with it one night not too long after moving in I
00:57:59
was asleep in our bed when I could hear what sounded like footsteps above my head from the upstairs bedroom but I
00:58:05
wrote it off saying it was probably just the house cracking and popping I I made
00:58:09
it in instead of the house was built in the 40s so it was older and not unheard of to make some
00:58:15
noise I went back to sleep not giving it another thought until the next day when
00:58:19
I went upstairs to unpack more things and there was a tote sitting in the hallway that I most definitely did not
00:58:25
leave there again I was determined not to draw attention to the happenings so I just moved the tote back in the room
00:58:31
that night the same thing happened only I could hear heavy things being moved across the floor I got out of bed and
00:58:38
locked my bedroom door because yeah ghosts totally can't get through locked door right insert eye roll here honestly
00:58:43
I feel that way too though and stayed up the rest of the night listening to the movement upstairs the
00:58:49
next day sure enough all the boxes and totes had been moved to one side of the room away from the dresser if that
00:58:54
wasn't scary enough there were thousands of dead flies on the opposite side that's when you know oh and that
00:59:01
probably smelled so yuccas that's Damon oh I hate it if there's one thing I've learned from spending my free time
00:59:07
watching ghost hunting shows on television it's that dead flies are commonly associated with demonic
00:59:12
activity or evil see these are nasty I never grabbed a vacuum so fast in my entire life if I could make it to fly
00:59:20
like the witch on Hocus Pocus I would have flown around that room with it that's how fast I was it's a hell no one
00:59:26
the demon flies for me I wish I could say that was the last of dead flies in that room but no every day there were
00:59:33
more and more no matter how many exterminators I called or how much I vacuumed it was only in that room which
00:59:39
made that room feel just as creepy to save time on this story we're going to fast forward about a month or so just
00:59:45
because I'm fast forwarding trust me crazy [ __ ] happened daily and it was really taking its toll on me mentally my
00:59:51
friends were being absolutely amazing throughout the whole whole ordeal I'll change their names only because I didn't
00:59:56
get their permission but if they listen they'll know who they are without them I
01:00:00
truly wouldn't have made it on nights I was completely alone I would come home from work eat dinner and lock myself in
01:00:05
my bedroom and pray that the activity would just stay minimal I wouldn't come back out until morning
01:00:10
one night my husband's cousin Bailey came down to visit us while Drew was home from work we were playing cards
01:00:16
late into the night and just as things were dying down we heard a sound I will never forget for the rest of my life oh
01:00:22
God the most inhuman growl came from the top of the stairs echoing throughout the
01:00:27
entire house it was so guttural and Loud that I was almost certain that somehow a
01:00:32
[ __ ] grizzly bear had found its way into my home I'm scared I don't like it we all locked
01:00:38
eyes with each other and didn't move an inch the growl lasted for several moments and then Dead Silence came back
01:00:45
over the house which almost felt scarier yep sometimes silence is like so slow after something like that the three of
01:00:52
us went upstairs to make sure there really wasn't an animal but we couldn't find a thing that sound still haunts me
01:00:58
oh I hate it me too needless to say I wasn't staying alone in the house very often after that my friend Shayna and
01:01:05
Haley stayed quite often so I wouldn't be alone one night Haley and I had fallen asleep on the couch after binge
01:01:11
watching quite a few episodes of Outlander I was in a deep sleep when Haley woke me
01:01:16
up in pure Terror her face was so pale and she was shaking like a leaf she hadn't really experienced anything for
01:01:23
herself until this moment so she was completely scared she told me frantically that she had heard a lady
01:01:28
whistling and it was coming from toward the stairs that was new you're like oh [ __ ] you're like oh you do I hadn't
01:01:35
heard that so even I tried to convince her that she was dreaming until the whistling started again it began in one
01:01:41
of the rooms upstairs and was moving closer to the stairs and getting louder can I just also say that I [ __ ] hate
01:01:47
whistling I hate this kind of whistling I hate any whistling anytime Drew whistles I'm like stop that
01:01:53
um I grabbed Haley's hands and we ran out onto the front porch where we stayed until the sun came up she didn't stay
01:01:58
any she didn't stay at night anymore and I can't say I blame her nah God bless Shayna though because she stayed nearly
01:02:04
every night she could just so I wasn't experiencing what I did alone she was worried about me knowing that I wasn't
01:02:10
my usual peppy extrovert itself I was becoming really drained men mentally and was beginning to take a toll on my
01:02:16
psyche oh no I was having night terrors about being chained up and not being able to escape I was sick to my stomach
01:02:22
almost constantly I honestly felt like I was losing my mind it was like I didn't
01:02:26
have control over my body anymore and I felt so isolated I was beginning to feel
01:02:31
depressed and suicidal I was so desperate for an escape even typing this out I have tears rolling down my cheeks
01:02:37
because the thought of ever having to experience any of this again truly shakes oh my God I want to hug you I do
01:02:42
too it's okay you're never gonna have to do this again you're good you're safe you're so safe again to shorten this
01:02:48
story I'll tell you about the worst night Shayna and I had growls things being moved flickering lights Etc we
01:02:54
were exhausted the activity had been constant that night she had woken up and come into my room after the growling
01:03:00
started and where we were sitting on the edge of my bed debating on getting a hotel to be quite honest from this
01:03:07
Viewpoint we could see the main bathroom downstairs across the House suddenly the
01:03:11
main bathroom door slammed shut with such a force that it shook the walls and rattled photos on the walls we barely
01:03:19
had time to look at each other before my bedroom door was being slammed just as loud oh I hate it I really hate this
01:03:26
this is such an angry entity yeah yeah our screams erupted throughout the house yet not a single neighbor came to check
01:03:33
thanks neighbors way to God for real when I went to open my door it wouldn't budge it was like something was holding
01:03:39
it from the other side I was frantic trying to get it to move Shayna and I were both crying and desperately trying
01:03:45
to get out when it finally let go I ran outside and collapsed in the yard I'm not a highly religious person but I was
01:03:51
praying harder than ever just trying to make it all stop which led to Drew and I
01:03:56
having the house blessed that didn't work either holy [ __ ] now I could sit here and tell you about every single
01:04:01
detail that ever happened but I want to wrap this up so you don't have an hour long tail just on my account even if we
01:04:06
did it'd be fine you could be the next Brad hell yeah just know there's so much more to this story that I can bear to
01:04:12
write I'll leave you with the two final instant senses that ultimately led to Drew and I hightailing it out of there
01:04:17
um your dream house I know I'm so sorry that that happened yeah Haley came over and told me she'd help me move uh move
01:04:25
things into the less creepy bedroom upstairs so we could just close off the room that had held such bad feelings and
01:04:31
maybe if we could close it off then the activity would cease for a bit or at least be less active as we were moving
01:04:37
things she placed her hand on the creepy dresser I previously mentioned and she instantly gasped she told me she saw a
01:04:44
woman in Old Time clothing holding a knife hiding from a man what she was completely convinced that the woman but
01:04:51
that that was the woman we had heard whistling I don't know how much I believed in Clairvoyance before then but
01:04:56
personally that definitely made me think twice about it that's wild that same evening I went to dinner with
01:05:03
Bailey and when we got back to the house there was a dinner knife stabbed into my
01:05:08
back door shut up oh my God no I didn't go inside that night thank goodness I I would yell at you if you
01:05:17
did and stayed with her Drew was coming home the next day and I was going to tell him that I could no longer stay in
01:05:22
the house the next morning I went back to the house just a short time before Drew was due to be there I was cleaning
01:05:28
up around the house and found a few items of clothes I needed to take upstairs I told myself I would just run
01:05:33
up there toss the clothes and run back down halfway up the stairs I felt what I thought was a cobweb across my cheek so
01:05:41
I swiped it away when I noticed there was a little droplet of blood on my hand what I go to the creepy dresser to
01:05:47
inspect where it could have come from that's when I see in the mirror there was a small but deep gash on my cheek
01:05:53
I'll attach a picture but it doesn't do it justice how deep it was it was like somebody had taken their fingernail and
01:05:59
stabbed it deep into my face oh yeah holy [ __ ] I couldn't believe what I was seeing I backed away from the dresser
01:06:06
and I could feel such a dark presence I raced to the bottom of the stairs where I could see Drew pulling in the driveway
01:06:11
to sum it up we sold that house in less than a month and moved even sooner than that I was done being haunted yeah Drew
01:06:18
felt so horrible for not being able to be there for me but he never once hesitated to be my support or to answer
01:06:23
any phone calls or face times at all hours of the night if it weren't for his love and support and not of my friends I
01:06:29
never would have said I'm so glad you have those people here too you deserve it and that is the end of that Demon
01:06:34
House tale to end on a lighter note I I did get the home of my dreams this time no demon ghost Poltergeist infested
