The haunted doll story

ghosts and lay I found your pod a few months ago after sadly finishing a little bit grim I needed something new to fill my long days and love the Macabre and would you two do perfectly so thank you I haven't had many encounters but wanted to share my faves most are possibly

2:00

explainable or just a coincidence but what's the fun in that also I'll start with the spookiest when I was a teenager I went to Illinois with my mom and my grandma for our family reunion while there we stayed with my great aunt I'll just say Aunt for typing's sake at her cute old farmhouse not so cute was one of her guest bedrooms which had a weird secondary room attached that was filled with dolls not only on shelves but also on a rocking chair one on a tea party table and one in a freaking crib why do I feel like it's always like this it's it's never like oh they're just a couple dolls it's either there's no dolls or there are a Godly amount of dolls we're gonna have another if we search our inbox we're gonna have another email that's like hi girls like I collect haunted antique dolls I even keep one in a crib and then we're gonna be like that's so cool but

3:00

in the from this perspective we're like that's terrifying yeah well because I think we are predicting that this is going to be a negative experience so it creeps us out it does initially yeah after asking my great aunt if she ever had seen a horror movie before or if she's just a psychopath and explained that her sister Rose who died when my grandma was little loved dolls and had a big collection that my aunt kept when she passed away okay that is very sweet that is very sweet okay now we understand a little bit yeah compassion yes look at us being compassionate now not gaslighting anybody I told her that's sweet but freaking creepy I'm not sleeping in this room she laughed again and she said you won't be sleeping in the basement either then that's where the rest are which I responded to with a look of how is there

4:00

more oh hell no wow I mean I can't really judge because I'm literally holding a stuffed animal right now that's okay though stuffed animals will also you have a history of haunted stuffed animals so we'll see how long this koala lasts fast forward to later that night we're having some drinks in the kitchen and sharing family stories my great aunt starts telling us about rose and a few stories of them as kids still not able to drop the whole doll thing I asked questions like did she have certain favorites to take mental note of which ones to keep an eye on of course then the more pressing questions of if weird stuff ever happens with them or if she's ever seen them move she sastly replied I'm 80 years old you think I remember where I put anything and we all laugh I start going on about how I could never live in a house with dolls I've seen way too many horror movies and how creepy they are and not a minute later the

5:00

power to the inside of the house goes out and I about [ __ ] myself my great aunt not phased at all said must be a storm coming and told me to go down and flip the breaker in the pantry closet of the basement yeah I didn't know storms could trip just some of the power either I protested because I'm scared of the dark I'm a chicken especially dark doll storage basements but was outvoted because I'm young I walked down the hall lit by just the outside lights fumbling to turn on my phone flashlight before going down the stairs to the pitch black basement not knowing where the light switches were I didn't bother to flip them on for when the power was back I found the pantry and of course the pantry shelves right next to the breaker were filled floor to ceiling with dolls each in their own display box I quickly flipped the tripped breakers and I sprinted up the stairs with that classic feeling of something running up

6:00

the stairs behind me yeah when I got upstairs my mom asked if I got too scared and bailed because the inside lights were still off winded after what felt like running for my life I told them that I flipped them but there must be a trick to it so someone else better go try they told me to put on my big girl pants and go flip them when I get scared I get a little Panic sarcastic so as I ran down the stairs I said out loud okay Rose very funny and I flipped them off and on again trying to not even look at the dolls I got back upstairs and the lights were still not on my family started to get a little annoyed I said stop messing around and just turn the lights back on half irritated half pissing myself scared I went back down I stood in the pantry for a second and I said to the shelves of dolls I'm sorry I was mean and I called you creepy can I please turn the lights back on I paused kind of expecting to hear a creepy doll voice in the response but

7:00

thankfully nothing then reflipped the breaker and instantly every light in the basement flicks on I didn't even know whether to laugh or cry that apologizing worked nothing else happened to the rest of the trip and to this day my family still thinks I was messing with them and to this day I have not said anything bad about Rose's dolls within a two-state radius of my great aunts but two states away you talk as much [ __ ] as you want yeah you got to be 300 miles and you're you're across the border and it's like let me complain about Rosie's dolls on a lighter note okay so we have some

The haunted salon story

reprieve from the creepy creepy dolls here yeah on a lighter note I'm pretty sure one of my work locations is haunted nothing too crazy for the most part just a rare door chiming when it wasn't open lights flickering doors creaking cold spots for just a few seconds little things like that I work at multiple Salon locations and this one has always

8:00

felt different like the feeling of someone being there but in a different room even when no clients are there it's never felt scary or intimidating and it's kind of nice feeling a little company since I usually work at this location and work nine to 11 hours by myself we play music through speakers while open and the thing that happens the most often is a song will start playing and after a couple seconds it will skip to a different song if I'm not busy I'll give a quick I agree and remove the song from the playlist or tell him hey I like that one I say he because it always felt like a male presence for some reason after noticing it was often Billy eilish songs that the music skipped to I started calling him Billy over that and I feel like this ghost likes Billy eilish me too ghosty same I also think Billy eilish would really like hearing this I feel like she'd be a big fan of a ghost enjoying her music yeah the biggest sign though was one day

9:00

a couple years ago I had to come into work with a really bad cold yay management I was in the front room sneezing and blowing my nose with some shitty half-ply tissues the company mistakenly bought and we were trying to get through when I heard a big clatter in the back storage Hall feeling like crap and knowing no clients were in so it wasn't someone falling or breaking something I took my time to walk back there when I finally went back to see what the noise was all of the new Kleenex brand boxes I stacked a week prior had been knocked off the shelves and onto the floor while the shitty bulk boxes were still stacked nicely on the Shelf I was shocked but opened myself a box of Kleenex and said geez Billy okay I'll use the nice ones you don't have to be so aggressive about it no but Billy was taking care of her he's like enough I literally see the snot breaking through this other tissue gross like poor nose is probably getting so irritated

10:00

Billy is just a caretaking billy eilish fan Billy eilish loving ghosts he still likes to mess with stuff but nothing has been moved or thrown since I feel kind of bad and I hope I didn't scare him into not showing that he's there like that again I don't mind it at all as long as it's not something being thrown at me LOL I try to make up for it with an occasional good morning and goodbye and thanking him whenever he messes with my podcast audio when I'm on my phone and it's time to get ready to close I have scared a few of the employees so I try not to mention it unless they bring it up first I only have about a week left before I'm leaving for a new job so I'll be sure to tell him goodbye and to take care of the girls and the salon for me I hope you get a chance to read these even if they don't make it onto the Pod well now Billy and you have thank you for keeping it spooky and see you on the other side Tiffany I had a moment of like how many states away are the dolls roses dolls but it I just

11:00

double checked it Illinois so I think we're safe we're safe from the dolls reading this although I wonder if anyone listening within two states perhaps they are not safe well also I'm

Personal stories and banter

wondering were they even the dolls or was it just Rose being like okay you don't have to talk [ __ ] about my dolls yeah coming to Spook you you're making fun of my stuff I'm gonna make fun of you right now I'm Gonna Make You I do I do like that version of it because it's like I just love that Tiffany's great aunt is preserving these dolls four rows and rock Rose is still enjoying them like these were roses love pride and joy in life right and they're not packed away in some storage box where you can't see them they're displayed on shelves in the basement like they're still facing out and then in that spare room they're they're I'm assuming out of boxes like in the crib in the chair laying around

12:00

so they really are so well taken care of engaging with the space that they're in which is I'm sure how Rose wanted them to be I mean it's it's a sad thought to think and not to say I I was gonna say it's sad to think that something that you love so much that maybe you leave to someone when you pass on could be basically like disregarded and thrown away and it's something that you love so much but on the flip side I also have been a person who has like experienced hoarding tendencies because of the guilt I feel if someone gives me something not keeping it or not just playing it or not doing something and then you start to lose a little bit of like yourself too with yeah feeling like you need to do stuff for other people when so it's it's a hard balance I see both sides but yeah

13:00

I'm glad that Rose gets to that the great aunt has enough space that she feels comfortable having her own rooms her own space and also displaying what belonged to her sister I agree and also this makes me think because it kind of going back to what you said like you said of you know how much do you display something because someone else had sentimental value and thought of you because of it or gave you something and I can't imagine a world where Rose left all these dolls and Tiffany's great aunt decides you know what I don't really care about them I'm just gonna throw them in boxes whatever but then that might anger Rose like and I was trying to think of like what I would give to people that would make me angry if they just trashed them and I think like my overalls I'm gonna gift them to my children to my friends and if they end up in a dumpster or I don't know some place that is not where

14:00

I gave them I think I would be upset and I would haunt people that's actually I was thinking about not necessarily your overalls but just I'm such a purger like I go through my stuff add a I don't I definitely don't make it more than three months before auditing some drawer some section in my closet like I'm constantly going through and making sure everything's utilized and donate yeah stuff all the time but it made me realize the other day when I was going through clothes I was like oh I should keep some stuff because the things that are really nice or the things that do have sentimental value that just don't work for me anymore like I can keep a few items to have to gift my friends or future kids or whatever so that they have like vintage items that belonged to me because right now none of that exists so I basically was like okay I'll keep like maximum 15 items ever and so I have like three items in a bag and

15:00

I think I'm like okay when we have houses that will be easier to do but it's hard when you live in an apartment you're like I don't have much room the store it is I feel suffocated at night really in the grand scheme of things don't most people would never describe my place as like a hoarding situation but I just feel like I have too much stuff which makes me uh think of how I have to clean my apartment after this because it is a bit untidy I just did laundry and like all my clothes are folded on the bed but I haven't put them away yet I'm like yes yes oh I was saying a hack I'm not diagnosed ADHD but I relate a lot to the tick tocks about ADHD and one of the things that I struggle with when I'm cleaning is I'll half finish everything because I keep moving to a new room like if I grab something to put it away now I'm in that room and I'm doing something in that room and then I forget all the time yeah and so it's a big production and like I can't just put things away like then I

16:00

start organizing then I go through like it it's then you dust and you clean and then you end up somewhere else and you're like oh my gosh this is overwhelming too so I'm gonna start and then I'm on Amazon and I'm buying new light bulbs and I'm like let me go through my old light bulbs like like it just is it's never ending but I saw this really good hack that someone who specializes in helping people with ADHD tackle certain tasks that other people don't have trouble tackling and focusing on um she had produced a video specifically about cleaning and said to grab everything that doesn't belong in like where it currently is in one room and put it all in a box and then you clean all your surfaces and then you go to the box and then you just carry the box and focus on putting everything back from the box so smart you might still get distracted putting stuff back in the other rooms but you've at least already finished the room you started with and intended

17:00

and I think that's why I ended up putting all of my stuff that needs to be put away onto my bed because I need to eventually get into my bed and I can't if there's stuff on it so then I have to put marks away my problem is my dresser I haven't ever decided how I wanted to decorate it so it's just a lot of open space so I grab everything from the bed and I shove it on the dresser and then it's kind of like when you were a kid and or at least for me my mom would be like okay clean your room and I'd just like throw things in my closet and be like I'm cleaned yeah yeah I also it took me a long time to learn that cleaning is different than organizing because clean your room to me was all right I'm going through every single drawer I'm looking through every single old photograph I'm flipping through every photo album like it was took me 13 hours what an ordeal yeah I was gonna say you know we're we have a lot of the same habits but we're learning some new good ones some new ones and we get to listen to Ghost Stories along the way

The demon dream story

18:00

speaking of I have a story from our listener Piper and it's called meeting my spirit guide who might be a demon and a demon trying to contact me when I watch a certain movie but don't remember the movie oh or don't know the movie I don't know we'll find out okay hi girls I wouldn't say I started from the beginning but I will say I've listened to all of your episodes I just want to say I'm sending this from my phone so my grammar might not be the best oh and I'm listening to an episode while I'm writing this all of um okay almost all of my spiritual interactions have happened in my dreams which I remember three on most nights whoa that's a lot of Dreams to Remember that yeah every night okay so I'm going to start with my demon spirit guide I was about five or six years old and let me just say I have very poor memories from my childhood but these moments I remember clear as day

19:00

I had this dream and it's one of those types of Dreams where it feels like it's actually happening and you don't feel like you're asleep so in my dream I was sitting in my queen bed playing school with my stuffed animals an elephant a dog and a Care Bear the time was like early morning but not so early that the sun was still down at some point I decided I would go and ask my dad for breakfast but before I put my legs over the bed I look over the side and I bawled bloody man at this point I didn't even see his face yet he had kind of olive skin tone I in my five-year-old state sees this man sit on the corner of my bed that is also in the corner of the wall now you'd think my brain at this point would trigger me to wake up but no I sit there beating as fast as the race car and what seems like an eternity passes and nothing happens so I slowly crawl over the side of my bed when the

20:00

man pops up causing me to jump back we make eye contact and his eyes were the only thing I remember about his face his eyes were as red as blood and I realized he was covered in blood he said three words to me you are special and then I woke up now I'm five when I had this dream and normally I assume I should have woken up screaming and crying but no yeah I just woke up like I had a light sleep Finding Nemo on my TV and it was still dark outside as years passed I met someone who I told the dream about and she said it might have been my spirit guide but also he might be a demon so you guys can take that apart as you will now the demon trying to contact me from the movie now I haven't The Godly knowledge of what this movie is it might have been Indiana Jones movie but it has happened twice I was a slightly younger version of myself playing on a playground

21:00

though it's like a tornado is happening but the playground has some shield from the wind I look under the playground it's pitch black like not a shade from the Sun but more space black with two red eyes not to be confused but the spirit guide from the pr from the first story but this thing seemed to be trying to get me to go under into this Darkness with it I resisted until the end in which I do go under but I wake up before I go I had this exact dream twice and that's it from me say hi to spooky cat for me and stay spooky my friends from Piper uh it's so weird to think about the image the piper saw of this demon man with blood all over his face but then get the message that you are special I want to know here's what we don't get in email we don't get to hear

22:00

how it was said because saying like you are special it's so much creepier than like you're special yeah you know so I want to know the intonation I want to know how this is voice memos yeah give us the voice memory yeah tell us how it was said because that totally changes like was it a deal was it a spirit guide was is the spirit guide also a demon that just happens to be well a good thing like what Arielle Willow has told us she has demon spear guides right so it's very possible that it's the same situation for Piper I don't know I don't know how things work but sounds like Piper has not seen this entity since so I don't know maybe it's now lurking in the background of Piper's life because they realized how terrifying they appeared to be I also wonder too if the whole like

23:00

we're looking at it from the perspective of demons being bad right like we're thinking this is a demons are bad this guy is blood all over his face this can't be any good news like he's trying to there's something trying to get her to go like through the tunnel or whatever like that all seems creepy but what if we change the lens that we're viewing this as and what if he's just this this image is an unlikely well also biblically if we talk about angels they're very scary looking so I'm almost wondering if like going through the tunnel is a spiritual awakening like just keep swimming and you'll be super enlightened like everything will make sense you'll be keeps just to the demons rule the demons yeah I mean yeah I guess you don't know what's on the other side but demons are friends not food I mean clearly Piper Piper is swimming didn't Piper say that like going through the tunnels so yeah

24:00

yeah but pepper wakes up every time yeah we don't know right we do not move

The haunted bakery story

okay I have one called Haunted Cafe ghost children and Baker Bill oh oh Baker Bill the bigger fun name we have another uh fun DED work site basically and another bill and another bill this is the bill episode hey spooky girls I just listened to your keg episode about the haunted restaurant which gave me flashbacks from being a waitress and forgetting everyone's Ranch I used to work at a small well-known Breakfast Cafe that had the best cinnamon rolls we were really well known for our giant delicious meals and our friends from the other side the building was a very old school from the early 1900s the top floor was a gym and the bottom which is where the restaurant is was where the school cafeteria was

25:00

located the cafe walls and Floors were original let me introduce you to the ghost the kids there were a handful of kids that would run around and giggle in the bathroom it was so creepy to be alone closing and your kids running one time I was at the sink when I felt someone pull my ponytail really hard I turned around to yell at my co-worker just to realize that no one was there I assume it was some of the kids trying to get my attention but it spooked me for sure it also feels like a bully bully move to like pull your right they must be daring each other I'm sure a ghost that has a crush because yes yeah I know I mean kids are we there should be like a flirting 101 class in kindergarten no pushing no shoving no attacking each other yeah my boyfriend was one of the Bakers and early in the morning he would hear the kids running and laughing and he would

26:00

yell stop it and they would be quiet for the rest of the time that he was there they were scolded they were you stop running they would also play tricks on us and hide things that we were looking for such as the jam scoop and important keys Baker Bell is another one of the spirits here in the 90s our longtime head Baker Bill had a heart attack and he died in the bakery his last words were can someone take the cinnamon rolls out of the oven majority of the recipes that we have are named after Bill as he really loved what he did that being said I was a baker there on the weekend and Bill would turn the ovens off stop the mixer and stand in the hallway we would just feel a very judgmental presence watching us as well as seeing a dark shadow I feel like he knew that I was new and he was just keeping a close eye on me to make sure I

27:00

was following his recipes correctly he was a nice ghost he just had a tough old grandpa Vibe no the scariest thing he did was sit in the cafe and walk down that Hall which scared our manager so bad she immediately clocked out and had to come back early the next morning to finish her paperwork well that's it for now I am also in my B era and will send more stories soon for now see you gals on the other side Jess um I love to picture Bill and all of these kids and like Bill reading bedtime stories to the kids and also being like reprimanding of the kids of like Behavior yes and then watching everyone you know with his like fists on his hips kind of like are you all doing what I taught you I feel like he must have gotten the warmest reception to when he passed because assuming that all these little ghost kids have been here for a very long time yeah like they probably associate him as the man who makes the

28:00

place smell really good like he makes the cinnamon rolls and so I'm just imagining like when he passed and he is now in the actual plane like all the little kids being like oh it's Bill I'm just being so excited to have him there that just made my mouth water thinking about cinnamon buns icing the cinnamon oh I want it all I just want the feelings of all the dessert I want to just buy the cinnamon and the icing I want to buy The Baklava filling like I just want the frosting I just want a mousse interesting see I'm more of the the baked good part you're a bread girl like the whenever I have cupcakes or cake I I don't like the frosting unless it's cream cheese frosting that's the only one I like cream cheese well Sabrina actually this is a perfect partnership you and I because you'll take the cake part and I'll take the frosting but yeah lovely

29:00

this is like a cake a frosting gal to their cake um Nikita my friend Nikita and I when we worked at the same company we they had hard-boiled eggs and she would actually no I think Nikita brought them in and she would only eat the egg whites and so she'd give me the egg yolks and I would just eat the egg yolks which like she came back to it like that's kind of I shouldn't have been doing that maybe I should have also had egg whites um I mean yeah no but I was I was taking down a lot of them every day the daily snack and then fast forward a few years later and both Nikita and I have eggs on our like list of we're not supposed to be we have like strong sensitivities too and we're like oh no all the years we were just taken down eggs you and I that's probably why you're so sensitive to them now maybe you've had too many I know okay so I'm sorry in advance but

The dark bathroom story

30:00

I am reading a scary story at the end uh it's from our listener Katie and it is called the creepiest ghost encounter I have ever experienced wow ever hi ghostesses I found your podcast about nine months ago and love listening to it when I was a kid I had a ton of experiences with the Paranormal and even now I am still having experiences here and there but this is a story from my teen years I was at my sister's house waiting for her to get ready to go out with her husband on a date and she asked me to come over and babysit my baby nieces it was early evening and the kids were already asleep in their Nursery so before we get into the meat and the potatoes of the story I want to note that this house she was in was one of the creepiest places I have ever been it was set up like this you walk into the kitchen and go through it to the

31:00

dining room and on the left wall of the dining room was a doorway to the living room and the hall where all the bedrooms and bathrooms were so it's kind of like a walk through everything to get to the bedrooms there was a couch at the back of the living room set up perpendicular to the hall no wall here so it kind of looked like an upside down tee the first door on the left of the hall was the main bathroom and now prior to this encounter I had always had dreams when I slept over that that room was covered in blood blood on the walls Blood on the mirror even blood overhead on the light at the end of the hall was a bedroom that also always creeped me out my sister decided to just use it for storage so that she wouldn't have to go in there which is saying a lot because we grew up in a haunted house that the site was allegedly a makeshift Civil War Hospital more on that later if you're interested absolutely uh yes

32:00

so anyway my sister was freaked out enough that she kept that storage room door closed always so back to the story my sister was in the shower in the main bathroom the one on the left and I was laying on the couch just waiting for her to go out when I hear it I hear her calling my name Katie so I called out what to which my sister yelled from the bathroom what I shook my head and ignored her and laid back down she has a history of doing stuff like that just to annoy me because sisters am I right but then it happened again Katie and I said what it happened 10 times always in her voice finally I was so mad I jumped up I opened the bathroom door and said to her while she's still in the shower why are you calling me she was confused and said Katie I am not calling you go I need to get ready I was so mad I stomped back to the couch

33:00

unconvinced and then the most chilling thing happened I heard her again hey her voice said I sat up and looked over the back of the couch down the hallway and the door to the back storage room slowly creeped open and a voice said come here no yeah go in there pass so this is the movie Barbarian yeah yes yes years later we had forgotten the exact address but we were thinking about the house so we looked up the street and learned that years before she lived there she's living somewhere else now an adult son had sadly murdered his mom in her house on that street he had stabbed her in the bathroom and remember Katie had seen like blood

34:00

yeah stay spooky let me know if you want me to send more see you on the other side Katie oh that is so sad that is so sad I know oh yeah I mean she was seeing the room covered in blood so that's yeah and it sounds like it wasn't even exactly that house or maybe it was I'm not sure but if that's the case then like this dark energy and like residual sadness and Trauma is clearly permeating the entire Street not just one house yeah um I know and then the calling out the Katie Katie it makes me but it obviously sounded both like it was coming from in her sister's voice but it must have sounded like it was coming from the bathroom too because she knew my sister was in the bathroom and didn't it's not like it was another part of the house where she was like oh [ __ ]

35:00

who is that you know so it makes it to me is like negative scary something yeah but it also just reminds me of like the mom like almost calling out for help like trying to get the attention of bad things could happen in the bathroom I know but the come here that's true that's true that's true is you're right ominous yes it is and it like freaking open come here no no no no no no no no thank you yeah no thank you no thank you thank you oh we hear anything from your apartment when you're alone or something mimicking your friends and family or just I don't know anything paranormal creepy Supernatural please email them email um email them email them email email them to us at two girls one ghost podcast gmail.com thank you to all of you for listening we very much appreciate all of you yes
