And Patrick, you know, knows Andrea and hooked us up and it was It's definitely gonna be a two part episode starting next week, so just look out for it. In the meantime,

go watch The Conjuring. And you know another reason why it's so perfect, just because the latest Conjuring film, which really has nothing to do with the first Conjuring, because you know, those movies are all based on the cases of ad Lorraine Warren. But nonetheless, there's going to be a Conjuring movie coming out I believe next week. I think June fourth. Oh my god, it's ready June anyway, so perfect timing for that conversation, so look out for that.

And before we get into the listener episode this month, since it's all about the listeners, I did see pretty interesting story in the Facebook group of course, called Ghosted by rosdres Flees. This one comes from Robin Robin Wrights. Here's what I remember growing up in a haunted house. This all happened between the age of thirteen and sixteen. I was living with my mom and two sisters, one sister fourteen months older, the other nine years older. Oh wow.

At around puberty I started having what I learned later to be sleep paralysis. But each episode was always different and terrifying.

the paralysis state. One night, I even floated above my body and saw myself sleeping, got scared and went right back into my body and didn't sleep the rest of the night. I grew to teach myself to sense when I was about to have an episode, and I would have to stay awake for the rest of the night, Otherwise if I fell asleep, I would slip right into sleep paralysis. I could tell from buzzing feeling that I had in my head. Very strange times only happened a

few times as an adult. Besides my own experiences, my sister heard over two consecutive nights, someone walking back and forth outside her bedroom door late at night. She thought it was me, so she didn't think anything of it. The second night, she shouted for me to go to bed, and the footsteps stopped promptly outside her door. She went to investigate, thinking it was me and no one was there. She was so freaked out she came into my room after and woke me up to tell me my mom

would also have variances, mainly via dreams. She dreamt a little boy died where we lived, and she described him the way I saw him during one of my sleep paralysis nights. One day, my sister and I were goofing around playing some form of tag in the house. It was a loop from the hallway to the living room, then dining room, through the kitchen, and back to the hallway.

My sister was chasing after me and said she was going to throw I think a spoon or something that she was holding at me in a playful sibling way. This went on for a few rounds around the loop. Then something hit the back of my head in the hallway and went flying past me behind the couch into the living room. I yelled at her, and she came out from the kitchen, nowhere near me, and was still holding her item. I looked behind the couch and this

silver ring was still spinning. It wasn't a ring either one of us had seen before and to this day we don't know who threw the object at me. I'm sure there's more, but this is all my memory holds. Love the show, Ras Robin from Ottawa, Ontario. Oh my god, that is the kind of sleep proalysis story where it starts to get real paranormal where it's like, you know, more than one person kind of experiences what happens during

the sleep aaralysis. And also, I mean you told an old Hag story and as an old Hag myself, I feel very comforted being represented and the rest of the old Hag community. Thank you. Robn okay on with this month's listener episode.

Hi, Hi, how are you? I am so good. You're a member

of the Facebook group. I feel like, didn't I just read one of your stories on the show?

I came running into the house, running up the stairs to go play my new music, and I had something just stopped me right in my tracks as I was going up the stairs, like almost like a wall, but obviously there was nothing there, just dread, just an absolute feeling of dread and heaviness. And I look up and as I look up the stairs, at the top of the stairs, it kind of curbed into a landing, and I could see the shadow cast of a very large masculine figure on the opposite side coming towards me down

the landing in my direction. And that wouldn't have been so bad if I didn't actually hear the footsteps of that being or whatever it was, coming down the landing in my direction. And I knew I didn't have a lot of time because there's not a lot of space between where he was and where I was. So I heard the footsteps, heard the way of this thing on

the stairs coming down, flipped around. I don't think I touched any stairs on the way back down, ran into the garage, almost almost smashed my stepdad in the face with the door when I when I flew the door open, I told them that there was somebody in the house. I like I said before in the story, I did not think this was a ghost or an entity. I was convinced this was a solid human intruder in our home.

And that was even more confusing and scary.

And this dog would like sleep like a log. You couldn't just wake him up easily. And he was sleeping on my lap. We're all cozy watching videos. And down the hall to my right from the couch I was sitting on, it was kind of a long, dark hallway. There was kind of a half bath in the laundry room, and then it led to the garage door. And I was sitting there and I could hear like noise coming from the garage and it was the middle of the night, this was past midnight, just like movement, I don't know,

like something somebody was in there. And then like I I turned them TV down for a second and I was like, what was that? And then it stopped. So I was like, well, maybe it's just like the wind outside or you know whatever, the house settling. Maybe I don't know.

You know, nothing, nothing, couldn't hear anything. It was just all of a sudden, the doorknob. But right before that I totally forgot. The dog perked his head up out of a dead sleep and looked down the hallway and started growling, just like it's never good, like this low growl. And that's when just I was like and then I got that feeling of dread again, and I was like, oh no, And that's when the doorknobs started jiggling. I

grabbed the dog, jump off the couch once again. I don't think I touched any of the stairs, ran up the stairs and woke up my family. They came down. Nobody in the garage nothing.

the kitchen behind you. And so he was pulling the bies or cookies or whatever he was baking out of the bottom stove and putting it on the top of the range so that could cool. And he looked into the top part of the stove and he could see a woman standing behind him in the reflection over his shoulder, and she seemed to be looking at him approvingly, like she liked what he was baking. And he said she was an older woman with her hair pulled back, so

he did see that. So that was very validating though, because but I still think that that was not the energy that we I think we had a couple things in that house, and I don't think the stuff that I was experiencing was friendly at all. Oh my god, this is really scary.

and this my mom was so weird. She moved us into the house literally in the street behind that house. So the new house we had you could see the back of the old haunted house. Like so if you sat, we had a porch swing and we could sit on the patio and you could see the back part of

the old house. And one time my friend and I and this was when I was in high school, we were sitting on the front porch, my best friend in high school, and we were looking We're sitting on that little swing and we were looking at the back of the old house and it was bacon At that point. No one lived there, and there was no curtains on the windows or anything. It was absolutely empty and we were it was like twilight and the sun was going down,

and then it was down all complete. We were watching the sunset and as it was dark, we were looking at the top floor, which used to be my mom's room and my little brother's room in the back of the house. The two windows were next to each other, and we literally watched something go from one room across the window to the next, just like it floated through and it was lit. And the weirdest thing is there was a wall between those two rooms, so it just

floated across one and then the other. And there was no exterior light. There was no street light, there was no thing that was out there that would have been mistaken. This was definitely coming from the inside of the house because we could see the walls lit on the inside of the house from the interior lighting from whatever that was that was emitting that light.

was too haunted for them to live there. And when I went back to visit, the grass was dead just at the property line.

Her name was Pie Wakat, and she would Pie would sit on the on the bed and she'd lay with me and real sweet cat. And one night again she perked up and she started looking at the ceiling in that room, and then my husband woke up and he looked in the same just didn't even know what the cat was doing at all. Woke up from a dead sleep, looked in that same area and then like shook his head weird, and I was like, what's going on? Are

you okay? What is what's happening right now? And he was like, I just saw a black cloud or something forming in the on the like towards the ceiling, on the top of the part of the wall where the cat was looking. And he pointed to the same place where she was looking. And I said, oh, that's fun, and he was like, oh, it's probably a dream. He kind of shook it off. I'm like, I don't think so,

I don't think. Oh no, that's not a dream. And of course he told everybody that it was a dream and that, you know, But then we had one of those dimmer switches in the kitchen where you have to push it and turn it to get it to turn on, you know, I mean.

stuff always happens. And she and I were sitting in the living room and I had just made this sort of three D mural of my son's name, Oliver, and I was painting little monkeys and stuff on his whole nursery was monkeys and stuff, and I hand pain and all this stuff, and the oh from Oliver jumped off the wall and rolled weirdly, just rolled weirdly on the carpet, mind you, out into the living room where my sister

and I were sitting. And it was an oval. Oh it wasn't like a round oh, like it could gain momentum. Like it should not have been rolling that way at all.

carrier and car seat things. It was like both, and it just flew off the kitchen counter and just almost hit my sister.

don't know, but definite stuff does happen. Did happen there?

was a really big house. And this weird part about this house, it was it had the potential to be really beautiful, but it was kind of like run down and it was not updated. You could tell since like the late eighties and the nineties because there was still carpet in the bathroom, which I always thought was super weird. And we found out that the house I think was being used for adult cam camera business, webcam business.

been so scared. Because I had my son was learning how to crawl. We couldn't even let him crawl on the floor. It was awful, Oh God. Which I also thought was super weird because I had not seen not one scorpion since I lived in Vegas, and then all of a sudden in this house. But whatever. And then my sister would sleep in the in the family this area that we made the family room, and she'd hear footsteps walking across the floor, like shuffling across the carpet

right in front of her. Oh all the time. Yeah. And then there was this weird room off the kitchen, and we think it was like supposed to be originally a maid's quarters or a servants quarters kind of thing. But that room was darker, and I don't mean like lightwise, I just mean the feeling of darkness in that room way more than the rest of the house. Something bad was in that room, that's what we know.

I am comfortable with it. But I think it's subjective for me, So I'm okay with it if I know that everybody's cool, you know, and I do believe that things sort of pass through. I do believe that we have activity a little bit everywhere. There's no way that just one space is haunted. In my mind, I think that sometimes we have, you know, areas where people will pass through, or you know, there's there's sort of more traffic than other places. It's not necessarily like a exclusive haunting.

But for me, I'm fine if you're fine. Now. I also know that if I feel like it's not my turn to be in a space. That's what my sister and I call it. It's not my turn where I just go, Okay, you have this space right now and I'll come back later kind of thing. Oh okay, yeah, and so you do what you got to do in this space and I'll come back when you're done, when this space feels better for me to be in. So I do that now.

own space. That's kind of interesting.

hard to pinpoint for sure. I think it's like that sort of patchwork quilt paranormal activity, which is kind of cool when you think about it.

over the world. And yeah, it's probably a real hotbed for paranormal activity.

like George Washington crossed the Delaware. Yeah, so really old, really spooky and as you can imagine, maybe some you know, residual energy there from some colonization and some not so good stuff. So the the house that I first lived in, my parents actually bought the lot, so it hadn't even been built yet when they bought it, and when my mother was pregnant with me and my brother. I'm a twin, by the way, but that does that does play a

part in the spook. But anyway, so it was just, you know, was leveled woods, so lord knows what was even in that area, and they bought the plot and then it just was built into like this big, you know, kind of cookie cutter subdivision. And the earliest memory that I have in that house, I think I was about two years old and shared a room with my brother and I would wake up, you know, nightly, and I would hear this, you know, deep male voice outside of

my bedroom door. And it was never speaking a language that I could understand, but it would and it was never threatening. It was just this kind of like low, steady vocalization. I have no idea what they were saying. I don't I but still to this day I can kind of hear it, and to the point where I remember to having some of my first memories of nightmares were about that voice. So while it never felt like it was going to hurt me, it still scared me.

Ah yeah, so super spooky. That happened all the time, super regular basis. I lived in that house from when I was born until I was I think just about seven, and I would say that that happened from you know, my earliest memories of being a toddler until I was maybe about four or five, and I just got really used to it. It was all I knew, which is really kind of messed up looking back. I was like, Oh, I'm just so used to the ghost compare. Yeah, that's fine.

if the room was spinning. And then when I was about four, my younger brother was born, and my twin and I moved up to kind of like a lofted space, kind of a mix between like an office and an attic in the house, and that was when the energy went from scary but benign to absolutely malevolent. I know there was one corner of the room that just like never ever ever got light, and there were skylights. We

were on the top floor, there were skylights. The rest of the room would be like flooded with light, and that corner was perpetually dark. So my brother and I, still being you know, really young kids, just like avoided that corner like the plague, and we would have synced up nightmares in that room. One I distinctly remember being when we both woke up the same time. It was about four o'clock in the morning, and we both looked at each other and said, did you feel the hands?

Did you feel the hands? And we had both had dreams that had a pair of you know, disembodied hands was grabbing us and shaking us awake. No, no, yeah, pretty pretty nasty. So that was that I remember was when was when we started becoming afraid of the room, and eventually just kind of, you know, as little kids do. We were like, it's okay, like we're just gonna play pretend, or we're gonna you know, make forts and keep ourselves

safe and all of that. And the activity definitely subsided as we got a little bit older, but we did both have really, really really awful dreams in that room. We would always have dreams that there were you know, like hooded figures looking down at us from the skylights, and we had no reference point for hooded figures being you know, five year olds seen anything like that before, so we would see we would have dreams of things

like that. I would have dreams where there were like anatomical like dissected body parts on the walls, things that I had never seen before, and only it would only happen in that room if I fell asleep, you know, down on the couch or if I know, slept in my parents' room. It would never happen. It was only that room, and I just to this day, the only explanation that I could possibly have for it is something paranormal. Yeah. So it just you know, continued, and there was always

just something in that house. And then we moved when I was six or seven, within the same neighbor within the same neighborhood, and the first night in that new house, nothing happened. And that was the first time where I was like, oh, that was not normal.

to myself, I'm not scared right now. And it was really It's something that we didn't talk about for years until I was maybe like sixteen, and we were I've always been I've always watched, you know, every possible ghost hunting show, and I'm really the only person in my family who's like outwardly really interested in the supernatural, and so my skeptic parents definitely have given me a lot

of shit about that over the years. So we were sitting around the dinner table and I was going on about either an episode of ghost Hunters or celebrity ghost stories or something, and my brother, my twin, perks up and he's like, oh, well, you know what, wasn't our old house haunted? And the entire table went silent. And my mom, who had never said anything about it, she goes, oh, that was absolutely haunted. There was a male energy there and he was watching me all the time. Oh no, yeah,

so pretty pretty affirming in that moment. And it's funny totally. My dad, who's the biggest skeptic, he was just like okay, and then he just kept eating his dinner and the rest of us like, wait, this is insane. And we were all we were all able to like corroperate everybody's stories and we all felt the same things and we heard the same things, and it was super validating also like very scary and mildly triggering, but it really affirmed that there was something there. And oh yeah, and that

house goes on the market every couple of years. You know, my parents still live in that neighborhood, and every once in a while when I'm visiting, all drive by and nine times out of ten. I feel like there's a first sale sign outside the door. It's always on the market.

was staying at my friend's house. And it was this like probably built in the twenties duplex, and I think it was in It was in near California Donuts, that's all I remember. I think it was near your Korea town. But I don't know La very well. Sure, I'm not sure. But it was the weirdest experience because I, you know, it wasn't not to knock LA in any way, but I knew that when I was graduating, I had no interest in being there, and and so I was kind

of dreading the showcase. But I was like, you know what, it's fine, I get to like be in the sun, and you know, go to the beach and eat a bunch of good food. I'll be fine. And I get off. I stepped off the plane and I was like, god, I just feel so weird. I just felt this like dread and this like awful feeling, and I'm I don't know. I consider myself to be mildly intuitive, but I also think that I'm a lot of that has to do with like high anxiety, So I think it's for me.

I confuse intuition and like my anxiety a lot of the time. But I just felt this like really just this feeling of like impending doom. This really just this wave of dread, and I couldn't shake it. And I was like, you're just tired from traveling. You're fine, You're fine, You're fine. Just move on with your life. You're fine. So, you know, I get in a car and get dropped off at my friend's house and the feeling kind of just intensifies, and I step into the house and immediately

I'm like, this is why I feel bad. It was just the energy in there was super heavy. I felt like I was walking through like a swamp. It was just really thick and awful. And again I tried to just explain it away because I was like, well, my friends lived here for years, and she's fine and probably just tired and anxious and nervous, and you know, I'm I'm just making I'm making it up, and so, you know, I try to shake it off and have a couple of drinks with my friends, and you know, we go

about our business. And the first night we go to sleep, and a couple of their friends had been staying there too, so we were all kind of just like sprawled out on air mattresses in the living room. And the first night, I wake up in the middle of the night, maybe three or four o'clock in the morning, and I hear this like low chant, and I think I said this

in my email. The only thing I can like in it too, is that like weird operatic singing in the beginning of Crimeing a River by Justin dinper Lake, which is like, oh my god, it's like a super silly comparison, but that's the only thing I can compare it to.

maybe it's you know, the people who live below. Maybe they're maybe someone's up and this is truly I went as far as to try to explain as someone's awake and they're singing in the shower and they swallowed some water or something, and I look at my phone and it's like four o'clock in the morning. I'm like, no one's awake right now except for me. And it just kept going and it kept going and it kept going and terrified me. I couldn't explain it, and I couldn't

figure out where it was coming from. At first, I thought it was coming from outside because the window was open, but it just kind of felt like it was in the walls. And so I pulled out my computer and my headphones and I put on like episodes of Drag Race or something, and and just tried to just tried to watch something that would completely take my mind off

of it, and eventually I fell back asleep. And so the next morning I wake up and I am really shaken, and I look at both of my friends who were sleeping in the same room as me, and I said, hey, you know, did you hear this last night? I was super freaked out, and they're like, no, we didn't hear anything, so weird, and I was like, okay. So that day was the day of our showcase, so super busy, super exhausted.

We get home, I'd pass out and nothing happens. And then I was there for like five more nights, and every single night it happened, and with you know, increasing intensity, and it was just it just felt so icky. It felt so bad, and nobody else was experiencing it. I asked the people. There were three people who lived in that house. I asked if they had heard anything. They hadn't heard anything, and it was just me hearing this,

and I was just really fucking wigged out. I'm sorry, Am I allowed to curse on this?

all day. And it happened again, just like during the day, and I heard it and I tried to figure out where it was coming from, and again I couldn't figure it out. And I looked in the driveway behind the house and the neighbors weren't home, and I sat out on like the stoop for the rest of the day because I was so terrified, and to this day, I

still don't have an explanation for that. But I got back to Ohio where I was, you know, living at the time, and I slept with the lights on for like four weeks because I was just so afraid, and I didn't tell anybody about it. I didn't I was just I was so freaked out by this experience that I was like, maybe if I don't say anything, maybe I don't know, I don't know what I was thinking, but I was like, maybe it'll just go away from my memory. Like I just I was just so freaked

out by it. And then a couple of weeks after that, my friend who lived in that house texted me and the other two people who were staying with her at the time, and she was like, hey, super weird question. We just found a bag of like a dark brown powder. Did that belong to any of you guys? All of us were like, no, that doesn't belong to us. They're like, weird, it just like turned up in our kitchen. We have no idea where it came from. And I don't know

if that was related. I don't know. There were a lot of people in and out of that house like at all times, you know, three roommates with three sets of friends, like going in and out auditioning places like there was just like a lot of foot traffic, so it could have been anything. But after I got that text, I was like, I don't know if this is related, but I'm done. I never want to go back there ever again.

it was just such a draining experience. Whatever it was, it just like exhausted me for a week and it terrified me, and like I just that was the scariest thing that has ever happened to me.

holiday home. It was an old converted farmhouse and I was on a holiday with my parents as a teenager, which you know that's not always the most fun. But we were in this farmhouse in this small village, and that was the first time I had an encounter where I didn't feel scared. I knew something was there. It was a feeling, but I didn't feel like scared by it, and we, like we all had experiences, my mom, my dad, and I, and there was definitely something, you know, objectively there.

So one of the most so one of the most prominent things was I remember the morning that we left. I heard I was like it was early in the morning, like six am, and I could hear outside my room there was like furniture being moved around, like screeping across the floor. It was like a tiled floor. And I was like, Okay, maybe that's my mom and dad, like, you know, up early moving stuff for some reason. I don't know why. And eventually I was so sick of it.

I was like, I'm trying to sleep. So this scraping was going on really loud, and I got up opened the door and there was nothing there and it stopped. And I went through to my parents' room and they were asleep, and yeah, there was just no evidence of anything. So that's very prominent in my mind. And my mum also had experiences with hearing footsteps, that's the other kind of main thing. And there was just a feeling, you know,

it was really old. I don't know how old, maybe seventeen hundreds, So God has to be some spooks there.

which was between the Americans and the Brits. So yes, spooky kind of place. And I had a friend that worked there, and some of the experiences of employees there they would hear like bangs in the night, or they would like see people through a window in one of the like in one of the sheds, things like that. And I was on a it was a ghost tour, well it was called a I think it was a

dark or a lantern tour or something like that. And we were in one of the blockhouses and we're having this tour and the tour guides were telling us about the house and how it was haunted and things that various employees had heard on site. And they were in the middle of telling this story, or someone had just finished a sentence and there was this huge bang. It was as if something had been thrown very fast or

very violently again against the wall. It was yeah, it was like something really hard hitting the wall and it didn't sound improvised or recorded or anything like that, and everyone was spooked. There was just this silence afterwards of Okay, that was definitely a ghost or you know, some presence was playing with us. It was as if it had been listening and was like, okay, well now's my chance.

faintly in the background you can hear a voice. Okay, here, we'll play again. Oh did you hear anything?
