Branchburg hometown haunt
alrighty hello it's Sabrina why don't you start us off I'm pretty sure I started last week but I'm happy to start again this week okay because you have done a lot of talking in recent episodes because you did a two-parter yes my voice hurts so give me a break talk to me okay and I might actually have three stories Depending on time so I am so excited about this one because I'm on the East Coast right now um by the time this episode comes out I probably will be back in La after a month or more of being here and on my first week here I drove past my childhood home that I grew up in that that was haunted and it's in Branchburg New Jersey a like a small little town that no one really knows of so I usually say like I'm from you know around Bridgewater or Princeton and I did move to Princeton in high
2:00
school but I had never known anyone in brantburg who had had paranormal experiences aside from my family and literally two days ago someone emailed Mel emailed saying Branchburg experiences no way oh my gosh this is as a HomeTown as it could possibly get this is so cool uh I was so excited so without further Ado Hometown Haunt from my pal Mel and Mel I tried to stalk you because I was like do we know each other do we have friends in common and I could not find you so I need to work on my investigative skills I didn't do it a lot of to be fair I was out at dinner with my mom and I was like do we know a male last name and so to be continued my investigation I mean you'll be new friends maybe yes I just listen to the Sabrina special episode and it was so real to hear my absolute nowhere of a HomeTown come out fun coincidence I
3:00
also moved to Branchburg from Somerville at a young age and my Branchburg house was also full of weird phenomena I wonder if it was the same one or on the same street I think if it was the same street we would have known each other but I know brandburg really really well so let me know Mel where you were we also don't know how old Mel is either so no but Mel did say move from Somerville to Branchburg at a young age similarly so I imagine there was probably some Crossover at some point yeah potentially or maybe it's my wishful thinking I hope okay doors would slam shot on their own nearly every day if it had just been that I would have attributed it to drafts but there were other things that are a bit more difficult to explain I would often hear footsteps when no one was home pets would react to things no one could see I had one cat who habitually acted like he was chasing something when nothing was there
4:00
once or twice my dog freaked me out by standing in the hallway growling at nothing in the middle of the night by far the most ghostly experience I had there though is the morning I walked into the kitchen and saw the figure of a woman standing at the coffee maker her back was to me and I wasn't looking directly at her so I assumed it was my mother but when I looked away and looked back she had vanished I later realized my mother wasn't even out of bed yet in fact I was the only one awake in the house whatever may have been there I don't think it was malicious nothing bad ever happened So eventually I got so desensitized to it all that I could be home alone at night hearing footsteps and slamming doors upstairs without thinking anything of it since it never escalated it kind of became boring after a while now oh my God other people 's horror and worst nightmare give me something new same old hauntings
5:00
anyway it's so cool to see someone from Branchburg doing literally anything laughs oh man oh that's that's rich it's so rare to hear about the bee Berg in the wild since the only notable things that have happened there in the last 10 years are the one double homicide and that time an emu was running loose repeatedly Crossing 202 and nobody came forward to claim it spookiest regards smell okay well I didn't know about either of those instances so I need to do some reading damn I want to go to your hometown this is wild jeez no thank you for emailing wow so great yeah that that was so fun and it's so nice for me to just have knowledge
6:00
that I wasn't the only one who grew up in a haunted house in Branchburg and it makes sense right like in the six years that we've done this podcast there's so many reasons that hauntings can happen but they happen all over the place it's not the whole town has to be haunted for multiple places to have experiences or whatnot I could be the family whatever it is but it used to be old Farmland who knows I love that this woman was at the coffee maker though she's like I might be a ghost but I still need coffee Branchburg the way that I view it now having the only two stories I've ever heard from it be Mel's and yours I'm picturing it as you know when people say there's always a spider within seven feet of you I feel like in Branchburg there's always a ghost somewhere there's some sort of Haunting within seven feet of you and sometimes it's nice and it's mundane and boring like Mel thought it was okay I have a haunting for us lovely and
The Nun film connection
this is from Sarah hello Corrine and Sabrina my name is Sarah I'm sure you've heard it a million times by now but I love the podcast I've only been
7:00
listening for about a year and I have a lot of catching up to do but I've thought about telling my story ever since I began listening but I was worried that it wasn't interesting or spooky enough and I was also procrastinating typing it we've been there oh yeah I have two semi-short stories to share one is kind of weird one very creepy oh oh so let's start out with the easy one I am 22 years old now let's see when this was sent okay so maybe 23. happy birthday whenever it was I'm 22 years old now and I've always felt open to the Paranormal and have been watching things about the strange and unknown my whole life even though it scares the crap out of me I've always had these feelings about things happening right before they happen in very specific detail for example one time I was in my high school class and there was this American flag that hung on the wall all year it hadn't moved an inch until one day I was sitting there and I had this odd feeling for some reason and I couldn't stop
8:00
looking at the flag in thinking that this flag was going to fall not even five seconds later not only did the flag fall but it had been hit by some kid with his crutch and Came Crashing Down taking out a bunch of things in its path it was a really big flag I have always had way too many things that happen when I knew that they were going to and I did believe that maybe they were all just coincidences I even predicted Leo winning an Oscar the night before in one of my dreams wait did Leo win an Oscar finally yeah for the what was the one where he was in like a bear or the horse uh yeah yeah yeah after the bear attack I can't remember wait Lou Oscar I feel like I've jumped to a new timeline because I did not know the Zodiac was captured I did not know Leo won an Oscar I feel like these are big things that Revenant didn't ex Revenant yes I did watch that okay now on to the scary stuff ghosts I mean that's what we're here for right I've recently moved
9:00
but before I did I lived in my grandfather's old home one night when I was about 19 years old my cousin and I were about to go see it chapter two she hadn't seen the first one yet so we decided to put it on before we went my room was in the hallway and had no windows at night and it makes the hallway pitch dark when I watched the nun and the woman in black the first time I made someone go turn on the light because I hate ghosts gliding down dark hallways there we were about halfway through the movie went out of the corner of my eye I see an old woman peek her head and just her head and one hand around my doorway and she's staring at me I immediately freaked out and looked at the door when I saw no one was there and I thought oh maybe it's just my eyes playing tricks on me until I noticed my dog was looking at the door and then I look at my cousin who doesn't believe in ghosts and she looks super confused and a little creeped and I just say did you just and she replies to an old woman
10:00
we both looked at each other in shock I went to go look for my mom in case I saw a glimpse of her walking by or anything to explain this but she had been outside the whole time the thing that makes seeing this thing 10 times worse is that my step-grandmother had died in the house we brushed it off feeling uneasy and we just went to the movie but while watching the movie the scene with the old lady came on and there's a part where she looks over the door frame just like what we had just seen we both looked at each other completely freaked out when I got home I had the worst nightmare of my life that I still remember to this day I had been looking out in the backyard and saw valik the nun from The Conjuring movies in the tree line of the forest backing myself I freaked I ran in my sister's room trying to tell her what I had just seen but she had just been looking down the same hallway staring I was crying and I was begging her to listen and I turn around and I see what she's staring at my mom was on her knees down this dark
11:00
hallway in my home praying to the nun and who else but the old lady that I had just seen my sister without saying a word starts to okay wait we're in the dream though right yeah yeah yes yes okay thank you for still horrifying yes my sister without saying a word starts to walk over to them while I'm crying grabbing at her trying to get her to snap out of it and to help me she reaches them she gets on her knees and starts praying to them I look back at valak and the old lady and they're staring into my soul and yelling in the most demonic menacing voice kneel and beg I decided to scream the best thing that I could think of In This Moment which was you then I screamed so loud and chilling it made my ears bleed and they said then die and they started gliding super fast towards me until I was jolted awake I woke in a sweat and I was crying out of
12:00
the corner of my eye I saw a black figure until I rushed to turn on the light and then there was nothing I've always been afraid of the dark and I've never been embarrassed to admit it because even to this day I proudly need a nightlight I've always been fully aware of what lurks in the corner just outside of my sight and I've experienced it I saw it as a warning and I went to go get Sage as fast as I could I tried my best to protect my house without my family finding out since they don't believe in any of this that was the worst paranormal experience that I've had and I really hope it stays that way I hope my story wasn't too long and that you enjoyed it and maybe you got a little creeped out if you guys ever want to do something spooky in Florida I highly suggest Saint Augustine see you on the other side love your very haunted listener Sarah well we definitely want to be in Saint Augustine we have talked about it for years can I add one more thing because Sarah had followed up with a tiny bit of context and said I have just learned that the
13:00
room I slept in was the bedroom that my grandmother had died in so maybe that explains a bit more okay but also I'm like does it well so the first part of the story then like seeing the old lady peek her head out totally with the context of knowing that the step-grandmother did just recently pass away does make sense but if I want to take it in a darker scarier way which I do right now I'm going to there's a spirit who knows that they are about to see the nun and knows that Sarah's step-grandmother had just passed away and knows that this part of the movie occurs and decides to terrify them yeah and be a menace and scary so scary and I mean I feel like the peeking around the door if my mom were in spirit form and knew I was about to go see a scary movie and that she could scare me with doing that I feel like my mom would do that but the part of the dream like being included in the dream and just like it's
14:00
just disturbing imagery it's so taunting it's so yeah evil right and so for those two like the nun from The Conjuring movie and then this woman who was in the door frame to basically challenge her and taunt her and be like all the people you look to for safety are already kneeling and begging from me and now you're gonna be next or I'll kill you that is so it's so awful but okay to play Devil's Advocate a little bit for there is I guess not The Devil's Advocate to play where does that terminology come from Devil's Advocate to play because yeah to play a devil's advocate but I'm but right now I'm like doing like the positive I'm paying like the Angels Advocate like it's enough for the haunting let's just say The Haunting exists in the beginning of this story where this Spirit peers over with the hands and it's creepy and then add on top that Sarah goes to see this movie
15:00
those two things combined I mean the movie itself can stimulate a nightmare right but I think the two combined whether the spirit like the spirit didn't even have to manipulate Sarah's dreams because those two things on their own could do it true the hand and the peeking out is so creepy it's like just anything like that it just I also Imagine like it's a sideways head like a bright yeah that's exactly what I picture too okay I'm picturing it as the creepiest it's called possible way okay are you gonna try to get out of frame and then crawl into it where are you oh you have to go full screen for me to see it I'll do it again oh [Laughter] should I do what I would I picture yes I feel like I think my first one was better but yes I want to see yours okay well I'll see yours in our in our final edited okay this is I don't know if I'm
16:00
I can't see my full frame this is kind of what I pictured was just like a yeah like super it's oh that's the microphone John Cena [Laughter] already oh man uh see having video is so fun because we can do things like this like now I want to like get up and do a dance performance Sabrina you want to act out every single story we read what if we did that where you would read the story and then I on the other side have to like it's like improv where it's like on the spot I have to do the action of whatever that's our Dream television show it's Drunk History but ghost stories that's what we want to do we should do a ghostly charades in the beginning of one of our episodes
17:00
Who Am I who am I I like it okay we could do that on uh our monthly lives for weekend yeah we did we do a Pictionary which was really awesome that's true that's true okay I have a
Walking upstairs mystery
story from our listener Andy and this is a really really sweet one or maybe I should end with this one because it's super sweet okay okay yeah end with a nice one okay I have a story from our listener Michelle and it's called who walked upstairs hahaha hi ghost esses it's summertime and I've and after a few Margaritas I began telling my friend all about my paranormal experiences and remembered a few key ones I love that Michelle's like I had margs told a friend about my ghost stories and now you know what I was inspired to tell you I hope I hope Michelle was drinking margaritas as she
18:00
wrote this to us I really hope so too little spicy Mark so this one it could have a connection but it also could not tell me what you think this happened in 2010 in my very first home after condo living since returning to Canada it was a new home we saw it being built from the ground up which many are probably thinking a new home could be haunted not unless you've listened to our podcast because we've learned they can and childhood home was yeah evidence hard evidence Michelle said I thought the same thing but it turns out every home I live in there's something Supernatural because I guess I'm a freaking magnet one night I had a sleepover with my cousin and whenever we were together we were up until the wee hours of the morning we'd watch YouTube play with action figures until we were too tired to even talk that night he was playing with the action figures while I was on YouTube replaying some WWE episodes Corinne this is perfect timing when you
19:00
just died you already acted it out there you go channeling John Cena oh my gosh everybody was in bed including my parents and my sister and the cats too I remember I was about to ask my cousin something but I stopped because I heard footsteps being dragged on my carpet like someone was really tired and just walking from room to room my cousin and I looked at each other and shushed maybe it was my Dad or Mom ready to nag us about not sleeping yet so we waited if it was my dad he would go downstairs and I'd hear his footsteps my mom would open the door and check in on us but suddenly the footsteps stopped and neither of those things happened so we just waited holding our breaths nothing we Shrugged it off and for a second there was silence and then again the sound of dragging footsteps caught mine in my cousin's attention it sounded like it made its
20:00
way from my parents room slowly so once again I was expecting my parents to come in especially because the footsteps started coming towards my closed door Ma I called out no answer my closed door didn't open but the footsteps continued suddenly they stopped at my closed door Daddy I called out and when he didn't answer and the door remained shut I got up this wasn't funny I got up and I grabbed onto a pink vase on my dresser I'd looked at my cousin and said Matthew stay here I'm gonna see what this is my cousin shook his head dude don't it's probably just your parents nah I know my parents this is not like them I could hear and feel my heartbeat in my ears as I gripped onto this face Tighter and Tighter I was expecting a serial killer to be at my door and ready to kill me but guess
21:00
what I swung my bedroom door open and nothing it was dark and empty the next morning both my cousin and I darted down the stairs to tell my mom and my mom tries to never give in to this type of you know seeing spirits and hearing them talk but when she heard our story and the events of the night prior she was shocked it wasn't me anymore it was both myself and my cousin experiencing this how could two kids be screwing around about footsteps she told us it could have been my dad or my sister sleepwalking nothing to worry about as if two people sleepwalking in your family isn't something already weird right like what the hell are they talking about and there's oh that's even worse put full that full possession if there's more than one Sleepwalker Step Brothers okay well that's a funny version of it this is the uh yeah this is the horrifying spooky version but later that day she
22:00
came to me and asked again about the night I told her everything that happened and showed her what the footsteps sounded like and I could see she was trying to make logical sense of it there was no way this house was showing signs of a haunting again but then she came clean and I was surprised she said to me it's funny you said that you know I've seen a girl's head on the railing just her blonde head floating at the railing she shows up and it looks like she's lowering down to the first floor ah I've seen her a few times but she's always at the railing so who was this walking around the hallway that night is it the girl why is she always at the railing I feel like every home I've lived in has a story to tell hope you're both doing well Corinne happy engagement now wedding stay spooky stay weird and don't get possessed lots of love Michelle my God this is so escaping
23:00
positive spin okay it is very scary but Michelle's mom saw this little girl a couple times and she's always at the railing like kind of floating down meaning she's upstairs for the most part which makes me think she sees Michelle and her cousin hanging out staying up all night playing and you know maybe she feels left out and wants to be included and that's true doesn't really have the ability to go beyond the like hallway area so maybe she just like keeps trying to like lurk outside the door yeah yeah that's a nice positive thin which is like positive but also sad because then it's like she wants to participate and she's just the onlooker I don't know how I feel about it you're not convinced yeah I'm not I'm not entirely convinced and it's just so scary just like knowing something's Beyond the Door knowing something's walking back and forth and then to raise your concerns to your mom and be like oh yeah I basically see like to me it
24:00
sounds the floating head sounds almost like a c decapitated head it's not the full body it's just yeah ahead but we you know some Spirits have some problems showing up just like you know some men have problem getting it up it's just it's difficult and there's no pills to take to show your body if this feels like this feels like Mad Libs I wasn't gonna say it because I was like this makes no sense but then I was like you know what just release your weird Sabrina release your innards Oddities oh my God that was funny it's
25:00
kind of like you know sometimes sometimes I think I just try to say things that are going to shock people because they don't expect me to say them actually a lot of my thoughts if I said them out loud would shock people so for the most part I don't say them and here we are here we are and but well luckily for you if a pod you have a you we have a podcast this is what everyone does a figment of my imagination is your Donnie dark whoa Donnie Darko moment jeez that's freaky I mean I you could convince me that I'm not real and I'm just a part of you and I think I would believe it honestly here's the thing though you're so funny and you're like like I couldn't make you up because my own brain isn't like that no I think like you got the better part of my brain if I created you I barely speak English
26:00
Sabrina how is that at all true you're hilarious oh we're just to have two ghosts just two halves making one hole [Laughter] speaking of holes my brother was saying that he wishes he could have create like a video compilation from everything he saw in his mind at my wedding of this is like not an English sentence but basically my cousin Mallory she works in the porn industry and the thing the thing she she says is shocking sometimes yes very and my brother was like I wish I just had a could make a compilation of the whole weekend of Mallory talking in people's reactions
27:00
just like Quick Cuts yeah yeah just to all of that oh man okay I have a
Attachable dark entity
story now that we can move on to it is called the little girl that attached herself to me so the first story of my haunted childhood house it all began when my mom and stepfather got together and bought this house in the middle of the woods in Swansea South Carolina so short story first because it is quite a long one and probably way too long for your show guess what we're reading it the previous owners died of old age in the house and that is why we got it for so cheap needless to say I don't think this was the case looking back on this as an adult I remember as a kid around 13 me and my buddy were playing Xbox 360 and behind was the door to my bedroom and it had this inch Gap underneath where you could look underneath the door and see the hallway leading to my stepsister's
28:00
room well as we were playing we both noticed that the hallway light seemed to be a bit off and it was Pitch Black in the hallway so being curious and the Deviant kid that I was I went to go turn on the lights because I just never felt right in that house in the dark lo and behold as I opened the door I noticed that the lights were still on so I looked back at my buddy to confirm that nothing had been going on before I opened the door and he confirmed I was correct or at least we thought that night he went home because he was scared that maybe someone was watching us and then I tried to go to bed terrible decision that night I had a dream some would say night terror I say I finally saw what was lurking in that house in that dream I was playing the Xbox with my buddy again but this time when I looked under the door there was nothing but pitch black darkness and you couldn't see through it if you tried and this time when I turned back to look at my buddy he's gone I heard a creaking noise and looked back and there was my
29:00
stepsister's bedroom slowly creaking open inch by inch no as it finally swung open fully I noticed that the room was completely filled with just black smoke this thickness that was staring back at me I froze with fear just staring into the darkness and then a little girl with long black hair and long arms started to run down the hall and chased me out of the bedroom down the stairs and around the house and into the basement as she caught me and she slit my throat and then I woke up with a sweaty panic in my room with marks all around my neck that I didn't find out about until later in the morning when I went to go take a shower that very morning I asked my mom where the old owners used to sleep and she said in your sister's room why do you ask I told her I have a bad feeling about that room and about my dreams and of course my mom would say that it's just a
30:00
dream and nothing can hurt you but to this day I have to look over my shoulder telling the story because in the end I feel like something was trying to attach itself to me and possibly did see you on the other side and on patreon Dylan okay Dylan um the ominous ending of possibly did attach itself to you makes me think that there is more to the story that you are not telling us and there is and just the darkness lingering there and kind of like this massive being this like ominous Cloud it does make me wonder if perhaps the older people who were living there if they experienced anything like the previous owners makes me sad you know thinking that maybe there was something really scary affecting them tormenting and especially if they were older it's like one of those things where people are like oh it's dementia they're hallucinating but like what if for this couple specifically
31:00
there was something really dark and demonic in their home and Dylan was seeing it it's kind of like how scammers take advantage of the elderly because you know like the like there's been a lot of things recently where they pretend to be like grandchildren and they're like I really need money help me and can mimic your voice like using AI it's so scary yeah I think it's just upsetting to think that Spirits can do that too and take advantage of elderly and their inability like get help in regards to the hauntings but the fact that this little girl has long arms like that's such a specific detail that well I mean okay let's just say the whole thing this is not a little girl no this is something demonic something dark if it's chasing Dylan and leaving actual scratches on Dylan's neck I know I'm like looking around myself because I'm getting nervous just talking about this but yeah oh the waking up and not even realizing I
32:00
Dylan didn't even realize that they had anything on their throat for a while so you know they woke up and was like oh my God what a horrible dream that was so scary and then probably looked in the mirror and was like oh okay that wasn't just a dream cool cool cool and it sounds like Dylan just from like the experience it didn't really feel like just a dream anyway but then it was confirmed that it was more than just a dream based because of the scratches cool okay well I do have a nicer story
Grandfather's final visit
it is a bit sad but it just so you know it is like a it has a nice message to it so this is from our listener Andy and it's called my grandfather died to see me get married greetings ladies and ghosts my name is Andy she her and I'm an Idaho transplant in Texas patiently hoping for a live show anywhere between the two after coming out from under the podcast Rock I've been under I discovered your show last year and have
33:00
been binging ever since like everyone else I feel like I've gained two best friends that never judge no matter how crazy or scary a story may seem okay story time I got married last July but the month before the weekend of my bachelorette party my mom called me to let me know that my grandfather was likely not going to make it through the night I definitely cried on a beautiful male dancer that evening Grandpa made it another 24 hours and died that Sunday I was born the day before his birthday so my whole life we've shared a very special connection always celebrating together or at the very least calling to wish each other happy birthday it was hard a month later when that call didn't come for the first time in 30 years about a week after he passed I was getting a massage from my Reiki healer and she paused to ask me about the presence of a male that she was feeling she said it felt like she was holding someone on her lap and was overwhelmingly proud I told her my grandpa had passed recently and she said
34:00
oh that's who it is and he's letting me know that he knew this was the only way he would be able to see you get married oh I burst into tears my husband and I had decided that since his family is in Texas and mine is in Idaho we would get married in Las Vegas because it was easier for both families to get to this meant that my grandparents would not make it as they weren't up for any kind of travel when we finally had his funeral in August I was able to talk to my uncles who had been with him the days leading up to his passing and they mentioned some of the things he was saying and doing before he left he told one of them that he'd seen his parents and had a nice visit with them he also told one of them that my Aunt Carolyn his eldest daughter who had unexpectedly died in 2017 had come to see him as well they said the limited time that he was awake his last few hours he spent it looking around the room as if in awe he would look right past the people physically
35:00
present but it still looked like he was seeing someone I fully believe when people are close to death they see things that the rest of us can't angels and past loved ones come to help them with the transition and I believe he saw his angels and was not alone when he passed well ladies it was longer than anticipated but I hope you enjoyed your podcast and listener stories have helped me through a miscarriage that I had a few months ago by affirming my belief that there is something more out there and I just know my baby boys with both my grandpas watching over me until it's my time to join them keep it spooky and see you on the other side also hopefully sooner Andy this is yeah this you you prepared me for it it was both sad and beautiful yeah my gosh I I think it's nice to think that in the last few moments of his life that he was looking around in awe right that what he was saying was beautiful and warm and exciting and it was comforting and welcoming
36:00
well it's a beautiful thing that he got to be there I know and the message of the he knew that this was the only way he could see you get married which is not only a so sweet and like beautiful but also then means that at the wedding Andy knows for a fact he was there yeah yeah oh chills I'm glad he could go I know I know I'm like I want to go wrap myself in a blanket now and hug and yeah and just think about Andy's wedding was very very lovely and sad and but also I'm really and I'm really sorry for your loss as well Andy like I do think it's beautiful that while it wasn't our intention in creating this podcast I love that it has created a space for people to feel comforted by others but then also by the notion of the afterlife and that our loved ones are
37:00
