1:00

inner eel your inner ear and that semicircular Canal we're gonna make it tingle with some ghost stories I've been

Ear candle fascination

watching Survivor recently and there was an episode where in the very beginning of the season a bug crawled into a like a woman's ear and was just inside the canal oh sucking blood and there was nothing she could do about it so that's what I'm picturing that is one of my greatest fears that is so gross I hate every time I get too much of an itch inside my ear like I've totally looked in my ear and taking pictures inside my ear before because I get nervous and with seasonal allergies when they feel really full because you're just like full of fluid and grossness in your sinuses that's usually around the time of year that I get panicked that I have something in my ear because it just feel it feels blocked but I never have had one but I know of I've always wanted to

2:00

do those like candle wax things where it like pulls out all the wax my family grew up doing this I still do them I've never done them I want to will you do it for me yes I will so basically when you use the candle you put your head to the side and you light the candle above you you have something around you to protect you from any Flames coming down but it's something about like the Heat and the suction of the flames and the fire and it just kind of like loosens up wax and brings it to the top and a lot of it will burn off but what we like to do because we're fascinated with it is take the little end part of the candle that you can't have it burn all the way down to your skin obviously and cut it up and look at what's inside no why wouldn't you right both candles have a powdery Brown substance from just the candle burning but the one that was in our ear has wax and so it works and Sabrina I will do it to your ears next time we're together please I feel like a weird thing that I have a

3:00

desire to do but I won't do is to start making candles out of earwax like very Shrek yeah I want people to come into my home and be like the Ambiance look at all those candles it smells delightful where do you get them and I'll say they're natural from my ears literally my brother when he was like four or five he would actually I think honestly he was probably older than that when we would do the ear candles he would collect for he probably had it going for like three years collect all of our earwax from the candles that we did a few times a year everybody in the family and he created a little ball and I think it got to maybe that big like the size of a golf ball by the end of three years and he would keep it in a little Ziploc bag until we were like you know what Christian this is just too gross and I think maybe you should move on from this type of collection one thing that I have learned in my adult years is people are weird

4:00

and just when I think I heard the weirdest thing I will hear something more weird we all have our own fixations and that's okay and it's okay whatever as long as you're not hurting anyone else and you're making yourself happy then we support you and love you okay Sabrina let's get into ghost stories and I want

Technical and logistical

you to start first you want me to start yes I can do that oh you know what I had a realization about the other day is uh now that we've been reading off of our computers because we don't want to be reading and looking down at our iPads when I watch back my eyes are going oh really look insane so I'm back to the iPad no no because now you're looking down and now we're just looking at the back of your eyelids I'm gonna go like this okay it's not gonna be it's not whatever works I'll just let people watch my darting eyes but Sabrina will give you a little bit more Comfort I guess and not

5:00

making direct eye contact with you the whole time yeah I don't know what's worse well let's just have people here's the test we're doing the iPad now and so if you're watching on YouTube let us know what you think is better for you and then maybe we'll use people's feedback to decide moving forward yes okay I'm gonna read a story from our listener Madison and I found this when we were doing we were pulling stories for our love episode episode 224 which I think actually comes up after this but found this story and I was like give me give me more and it's very applicable because it is called Elektra the ghost stripper

The ghost stripper story

hi Karen and Sabrina I love y'all I've recently been binging your podcast especially the encounters episodes so I wanted to share my unique ghost story with you all and with Leia

6:00

I had a pretty wild experience with the Paranormal when I was a stripper and I wanted to share it with you guys I started dancing when I was 20. cute lingerie eight inch heels makeup that would impress a professional drag queen and hair extensions down to my ass nice I worked at a small club in Seattle that had been around since the 90s as you can imagine strip clubs are jam-packed with residual energy sexual physical emotional and often angry and traumatic energy would hang stale in the air after the lights came on at 2 am 30 years of uncleansed energy lingering in the walls sunk into the floorboards men coming into the club carrying negative energy from their homes handsy inappropriate men who violated girls boundaries angry toxic men who use the strip club experience to demean and disrespect us understandably we would leave often exhausted and drained from taking on so many energies throughout the night even so this job was so much fun liberating empowering and it brought

7:00

me fully into my power as a woman but I know that's not always the case for women who go into the sex work industry but I'm grateful to have had the experiences I did and acknowledge that I have been lucky and others have not when this ghost encounter happened I'd been working at this club as a dancer for a little less than six months I around 10 pm I opened the creaky door to the woman's bathroom and closed myself into the first stall the sinks were directly on the other side of my stall and a small crack in the walls of the stall allowed me to see out at anyone who walked in after sitting on my phone for a couple minutes I heard the door Creak open and heard the clacking of high heels on the tile floor I looked out through the small crack in the stall and briefly saw a woman with long dark hair a hot pink bra and a black thong and eight inch heels seeing that it was another dancer I sat back and looked back at my phone the sink turned on outside my stall I heard water splashing as if she came in to wash her hands and then the water

8:00

turned off she grabbed a paper towel and dried her hands I heard the towel land in the trash can and I didn't hear heels clicking out of the bathroom or the door Creak open again so when I walked out of my stall to wash my hands I assumed I would see her standing there in front of the mirror but when I turned the corner to the sinks no one was there confused I washed my hands and assumed I'd been so into scrolling through my phone that I just hadn't noticed her walk out I washed my hands returned to the dressing room where most of the other dancers were sitting as it was a slow night as I walked into the room I looked around to see who it had been in the bathroom but not a single woman in the room was wearing what I had seen through the crack in the door my friend who was the only other girl with long dark hair in the room was wearing the same outfit that she had been wearing since she started her shift a black lace onesie and sparkly pink heels I asked if she changed and gone to the bathroom in the last few minutes and she

9:00

said no I sat down and told her about what I had just seen and she got very quiet in fact the entire room got quiet I looked around trying to read their faces and couldn't figure out why I got this response breezing past it we put on our robes and went out to smoke this is when I was told the story of Elektra a dancer who had worked in this club for nearly seven years the club was her home away from home and she loved dancing as a hobby an outlet and a career she unfortunately struggled heavily with depression and bipolar disorder and took her own life at home back in 2009. many of the women I had worked with had also been at this club for a number of years so a few of them knew her personally and were very affected by her death after she passed the girl started noticing weird things happening around the club Lockers in our dressing room being opened after being shut and locked the feeling of someone in the room when you were there alone panties and bras going missing then reappearing days

10:00

later in random places and even feeling A Gentle Touch like a caress on their backs and necks while getting ready one of the girls even got sick to her stomach one night and went to the bathroom to throw up while she was hunched over the toilet she felt someone standing behind her gently stroking her back while she was getting sick so sweet yeah it was as if they were there to comfort and calm her when she turned around to thank them she saw no one was there I always believed in the existence of ghosts but this was my first experience with one throughout the rest of the night I had an eerie feeling that she was around which I just chalked up to being spooked by the stories that the girls had told me at 2 am the lights went up and we began to get ready to head home I went out to my car put my giant duffel bag in the back seat and started my 30 minute drive home to my parents house who at this point had no idea that I had been dancing the road home was a straight shot down a very dark windy Highway it always gave me a creepy Vibe even when I hadn't been

11:00

told about ghost stories just hours before as I was driving down the darkest part of this road I started to get the feeling that I was not alone in the car I switched the overhead light on to give myself some relief in the dark and to my delight there was nothing in the car with me but that feeling of being the company of another person remained as I got closer to home that feeling grew stronger at a loss for words and unable to describe how I was feeling I began to talk out loud to whoever or whatever was in my car with me and then I realized that I was addressing the entity as if it were Elektra feeling intuitively that I was correct in this assumption I spoke out loud in my car it's okay that you're here but we're going home to my parents house and I really don't want any trouble or anything to happen while I'm at home I'll be headed to work in the morning as I worked as a barista on the weekends and had a 6 a.m shift later that morning and I said and you're welcome to come with me there if you'd like

12:00

I got home and I felt the energy lighting around me and as I got out of my car it felt like she stayed behind nothing happened while I was home that night the next morning I was at work at my coffee shop and had a customer who I will call Karen she came in and I'd become great friends with her I didn't feel a lecture around me at this time and I hadn't told this customer that I was a dancer yet but I wanted so badly to Spill the details of last night's experience with someone so I told her about my job and then went straight into the story of how I believed I'd met Electra the night before and thought she may have followed me home while I thought I was in good company telling my friend this story her response at the end of the Spiel was not nice no she shamed me for being a dancer told me that it was a horse job what the what the wrong with people oh this yeah and this is the real cherry on top she told me that the existence of ghosts is fictional and not to be believed and

13:00

mocked me for even considering the reality of this situation okay I mean honestly at least you get to learn that person who was your friend just in one experience is not going to be your friend again you know like they showed all of their colors all at once for all areas of your life they're just so incredibly close-minded and rude and now you can just move on peacefully but that sucks that the first the first person that you want to like tell them to and yeah the first person you tell about your career is so demeaning and yeah horrid about it that's that's hard and then imagine like not that would make you not want to tell anyone else right Madison says there is a silver wire shelving unit behind me that was stocked with all of our backup materials including an entire bottom shelf stocked with coffee syrups and flavors these bottles weighed about six to seven pounds each and we're not easy to knock over as they were packed so closely together the Shelf itself had a small lip at the bottom that kept them from sliding off of the

14:00

front unit can you guess where this is going in the heat of Karen's judgy ass rant about the horrors of my stripping career five tarani syrup bottles were violently flung off the bottom shelf of the unit and splayed all across the floor as if someone had angrily pulled them off the shelves in a reaction to the negative monologue this woman was preaching at me I jumped turning around to stare in disbelief at the bottles rolling across the floor of the shop and I turned back to face her it had never happened before and I had been working there for a few years at this point so it definitely spooked me I ended our interaction and began picking up the bottles from the floor placing them back on the Shelf after Karen left I sat down to catch my breath and reflect on what had happened I almost immediately understood what happened as if it were put into my mind by the spirit herself she loved dancing and knew I loved dancing and knew how hurtful these words were to hear from people who didn't

15:00

understand or support our work choices her throwing the bottles was not only a reaction to the [ __ ] Karen rant but a way to end the conversation and get me out of the situation sparing some of my feelings and my self-esteem I spoke out loud again and thanked her for watching out for me and I told her she could stay around as long as she wanted to and I continued to speak out loud conversationally which is weird because I'm not usually one to talk to myself and I usually can't see things yet I was having what seemed like a full-on interaction with this wild woman spirit as I was closing up shop that day I was standing in front of my register counting cash and finishing up my tasks still feeling her presence in the shop with me all of a sudden I felt two hands grabbed my ass and gently squeeze in the way a best friend or girlfriend playfully would I turned and looked over my shoulder knowing nobody would be there and jokingly said girl I'm cool with you hanging out here with me but please

16:00

don't grab me I'm not into you like that and I chuckled to myself as I turned around to finish work all of a sudden the feeling of the presence vanished and I felt the room's energy sink back to its normal frequency and I knew she was gone when I told this story to the girls at the club that night they informed me that many of the girls had previously had similar experiences and it seemed like Elektra like to follow new girl's home sniff them out and see what they're all about this makes me so happy it's so sweet I know she's such a girls girl too like she's just got everybody's back she's just making sure everybody at this place is like the newcomer is still good for The Vibes of all the girls that she loves exactly listen okay she goes if Elektra didn't like them these girls often experience things like lockers being open outfits being stolen and and heels breaking randomly as if she was trying to run them out other girls would have one experience

17:00

with her and then never feel or see anything again I was one of the ones who never felt or saw anything again so I assumed it was her way of vetting me to see if I was a good fit to work at her home away from home with women who she had once considered family I will never forget this she was my first and only paranormal experience and it makes me smile whenever I think about it I hope you guys liked it too like everyone says sorry for the long story don't say sorry and half the people that say that it's not even long yeah see you on the other side Madison Madison what an amazing experience that is just so cool not only

Analyzing Electra

are you at a haunted workplace but the spirit haunting your workplace loves your job loves the space loves all of the women around and it's just like the best protector of you and your job and all of your co-workers and I mean I can only imagine how much protection you probably

18:00

need sometimes working in a job wild people and their energies that come in that aren't aren't always the kindest nor have the best intents intentions wow I can't speak but I just love this I love that woman I love that she's jiggling people's butts and respecting boundaries once they're set and like just taking care of everyone there kind of like you said I mean Madison wrote in the beginning of the email saying that there are some pretty shady Shady people who come in there bring their negative energy their toxic behaviors and I you know I'm one I think this career is so empowering and if it's something that you want to do or have to do and you are in that career go for it and I hope no one ever shames you then also I hope that everyone also has a ghost Electra who's there to help look out for you because it always makes me feel a little bit

19:00

more secure yes yes and I'm just dying to know what that woman Karen's reaction was when all the bottles fell because I know we don't know how she reacted if she thought anything of it do we care suddenly believing in the Paranormal not really but I want her to be scared in a bad way I like to know I like to imagine that Madison hasn't talked to Karen ever since but Elektra has a kept an eye on Karen maybe once or twice yeah and has Karen ever returned to that coffee shop that's also a question I have that is a good question spooked and turned off enough to never return or she is she coming back and asking for forgiveness I hope she asked for forgiveness I don't know but this here's this goes back to CR the Christian collecting earwax comment I

20:00

it truly if someone is doing something because it's their decision it's something that they want to do and it is not hurting you or hurting anyone around you or doing anything to anyone then let them be support them if you love someone keep their earwax ball in their bedside table to each their own it might not be what you want to do but you don't have to do it there you go gosh oh man people humans what do you have let's go back to ghosts okay we were always with ghosts still a ghost this is called

Thanksgiving spirit

a classic holiday ghost story your family is closer than you think okay that seems nice it's about Thanksgiving and I thought about keeping it until November and I was like I can't I just need to read it now I can't can't hold out hello fellow spookers spookers oh

21:00

spookaroni my name is Stacy and I absolutely love the podcast YouTube bring me so much joy and I'm so grateful to have you as fellow lovers of witchy magical ghost things thank you for all that you do I can imagine it's not easy doing research putting together such great material every week on top of adulting I appreciate you looking forward to seeing my Spotify wrapped this year because of the ridiculous amounts of hours I spend listening to you that's really nice that's so nice it's the week before Thanksgiving 2022. I was over at my friend Danielle's house hanging out and getting ready to head to our friend's birthday party we were sipping espresso martinis and shouting about the day when she started to tell me about an interesting experience the weirdest thing happened today stays I went to walk into Dan's house to drop off his cooler and to previs Dan is one of our close friends who lives down the street from Danielle he and his roommate Travis have a bit of an open door policy so

22:00

it's not out of the ordinary to pop in on a whim she continued when I walked in and I scanned the room expecting to see people we know since there's typically always one of our friends there I was thrown off because there were women setting up for a christening there was an old woman standing at the sink doing dishes and other random people setting up tables thankfully I recognize Dan's brother and his sister-in-law but I just felt so awkward like they were wondering who the hell I was just barging in like that Dan and Travis's house is a hub for all things pregame Boogie Nights themed parties holiday hangs but a christening is a gathering that neither of us would ever expect to see there yeah we laughed about the awkward little situation and went about our night eventually our friend AJ came over who was heroically able to get the stuck Shaker top off the martini shaker woohoo not really behind him with our friend Dan from down the street Danielle immediately started telling Dan about the awkward experience that happened earlier and Dan's response was amusing

23:00

to all of us as he went on to say there was no old women there it was my sister-in-law and her friend assuming Danielle just made a funny mistake thinking that a 35 year old was an old woman and making a dig at her friend no there was another woman there at the sink washing dishes I couldn't really see her she didn't turn around when I walked in but it looked like someone's mom these two went on for a few minutes trying to figure out who this other woman was and Dan started doing some detective work and texted his brother who was there and asked who was present this afternoon his brother confirmed that there was no older woman it was just his wife and her friend Dan even showed pictures of the other friend and Danielle assured him that it was not the older woman that she saw I started feeling the espresso martini and was paying a bit more attention to the jams that I was queuing rather than the banter these two were having when I realized someone or something that we didn't consider I started getting full body chills maybe it was a ghost and

24:00

secondly chimed in and I felt everyone kind of freeze Dan pulled another picture up and showed Danielle yeah that was her Dan had showed her a picture of his mom his mom had passed away several years ago we were all completely blown away Danielle explained how even though she only saw her from the back she had the same build and hairstyle we all believed her and we knew it to be true Dan said his mom was always one to be helping in the kitchen and I'm sure she was there in spirit helping his family prepare for the party the next day oh keep an eye out for your family this holiday season they might be closer than you think and then we have one more

Spooky hotel encounters

bonus story okay my first ever ghost encounter in my adult brain I had some questionable Ouija board experiences as a kid first off you guys totally need to check out this place called Lilydale in Upstate New York a we have an episode on it yes I did it's a Charming

25:00

spiritualist Community full of registered mediums and cute shops all right on a lake you can stay in quaint old Inns built in the 1800s attend several different workshops on all things magical and get a reading from a registered medium they do free public outdoor readings which are also so incredible you can book individual readings in the home of a medium who strict or fancy there are dozens to choose from so I've been there a few times with my mom and we always wound up having an amazing experience when my mom and I decided to go in 2019 for an end of summer trip we both had quite the encounter oh while booking the trip my mom was showing me all of the different rooms to choose from in this Inn I jokingly said which one do you think will be the most haunted and she said probably something on the third floor well I got what I wanted our first night there I woke up boiling hot I cracked my eyes open in the pitch black room half asleep to see a darker than dark shadow walking towards me arms extended out like they were reaching for

26:00

me I let out a quick scream and I tossed over to grab my phone to provide some light my mom woke up and asked if everything was okay not wanting to freak her out I let out an unconvincing yeah only about 30 minutes had passed since I fell asleep and this is super weird for me because I typically stay asleep longer when I initially fall asleep I'm more of a 3am wake her upper and I hate it now facing the wall completely covered in blankets I am absolutely dying sweating while running through what just happened in my mind did that really just happen was that real was I asleep they say on the grounds of Lilydale it can be hard to sleep because the energy is very Lively they leave little bottles of melatonin with a note card warning you about the lack of sleep that you might experience maybe I should have taken some so convinced I saw something I still managed to drift back to sleep after sweating and contemplating for what felt like hours until my mom was making these weird sounds I wake up oh no

27:00

and I attempt to say calmly mom you good and she snaps out of it and goes that was weird I turned on the light and go all right are you getting haunted over there too and she said instill a half a sleep state that she felt like someone was nose to nose with her face watching her wondering what business she had there neither of us felt threatened but a little shaken up my mom then out loud introduced us stated our business and thanked the spirits for allowing us to stay in the home we would only be there for the weekend and would feel very grateful if they would just let us sleep and leave us alone okay good boundary we totally the rest of the trip we were not disturbed until the last night I was in a light sleep State again needing to pee and I had this strange feeling like someone was in the bathroom so I was waiting for them to get out we were alone on this floor and my mom was not using the bathroom I was awoken when

28:00

I felt the presence leave the bathroom and Pat the bottom of my foot in a you're good manner I guess they didn't want me peeing in their bed okay the most recent time we went to Lilydale was for an astrology conference we found out in our birth charts that we're traveling souls and we are sticking together to learn a lesson from each other oh still working on figuring out what that lesson is but while we were at that conference we also met a woman staying in the same Inn as us who was a freaking Demon Hunter she even worked with one of the Warrens for a brief time I remember her saying that the conjuring was super dramatized but the Annabelle movie was realistic in a sense of what the doll was actually doing she shared so many stories with me I wish I'd written them all down but I was honestly just too terrified I will share a few interesting tidbits that I do remember first she said when multiple

29:00

Spirits occupy a space but lived during different timelines they're unaware of each other's presence oh next she said typically demons do not bother you unless you or someone close to you like friends and family or even someone in close proximity like a roommate does something to stir them up or summon them based on a lot of the stories I've heard from you guys I would think that that could totally be true of course everyone's own experiences are real and unique and I can imagine this is not a rule of thumb just something to consider finally she told me it's true that people's Souls can be lost to possession she witnessed it firsthand and she has seen it when it's too late her scariest experience was when she was approaching the house of someone who she was trying to help and on the porch of the home there were two demon-like dogs with glowing red eyes growling at her I can't remember if she said she was able to get in the home but I do remember she said that she was followed by these dogs and feeling absolutely threatened and terrified I

30:00

feel like they'd already gotten this guy and the dogs were assigned to her that she was too late and to back off as she was telling me all these spooky encounters the room literally shifted I felt like it got darker and there in this woman's eyes her eyes were glowing black I had a hard time looking away from her I felt extremely uneasy but I was also just so intrigued not sure what that was about but my mom said that she had to leave the room because she was getting a really weird vibe I guess when you come across things so evil in your life a little bit of that a little bit of it attaches to you

Analyzing haunted stays

oh yeah love you guys to the other side and back and hope you have a wonderful holiday season stay spooky love and light Stacy she her um Stacy I Want To Know This Woman's name and I want to talk to her myself and then also Corinne I feel like you and I need to go to Lilydale we do honestly that feels like the best

31:00

vacation yes I also love that the spirits there are somewhat confused by people staying even though Lilydale has had people staying there for years years and years forever yeah yeah it is interesting because it's like some of the I mean I I assume there's multiple Spirits especially in this particular room that Stacy and her mom stayed in but it is interesting the varying experiences that that they had you know like the darker than dark figure which feels so scary to witness and see her mom having extreme discomfort feeling someone being nose to know over her that's extremely threatening but then Stacy had a good like little pat pat on her foot like a little grab like you're good bathroom spray head on in whenever so it's conflicting it's confusing I guess you kind of always have to be in between the level of extremely intrigued and still being weary and protecting

32:00

yourself I mean that's what the ghosts are doing too if you think about it true true you're right we're all doing the same thing I I just picture the like Curious ghosts leaning over like looking nose to nose like what is this I always just picture I don't know why but I always default to ghosts being friends with each other and there's always like someone at sleepover that's daring another ghost to do something it's like can how close can you get without actually touching them or them waking up why is there not a cartoon like series about ghosts like this I don't know I bring back Danny Phantom or let's just make our new our own one okay but someone add it to the list send Cartoon Network our way give us their content we've got ghost cartoons to give them

33:00

I'm technically still on strike so no pitching no doing any of that okay well about business I can pitch yeah but Corinne you would want to join the wga later and if you did that right now you'd be [ __ ] all of us over stand with the wga is what I'm saying think about that yikes okay I have a story this is from our listener Katie and it is called okay actually Katie shared this story with us on campfire stories I think last the first week of May like May 6 whatever that was and I was like I need to read this on the podcast so it is called demon or angel or maybe just an old lady

The car ghost story

friend you'll remember this okay this all happened in the year 1992. so not terribly long ago when I was a little girl around first grade I used to have to walk to school we lived in Mexico Missouri it was far into the

34:00

Autumn season and we had all just brought out our winter coats I remember this distinctly because the previous days I always took the short way home after school I was trying to get home as fast as possible to warm up from the crisp air this particular day I just felt warm enough to take my time I remember walking with my friends down their Road the longer way home we said our goodbyes once they reached their house and I continued walking the rest of the way alone it happened pretty quickly where I started to feel like I was being followed I remember wishing I had just walked with my brother instead of separating from him this feeling of fear quickly changed and suddenly I could feel like this was mischievous a little backstory I was by far the least mischievous kid I was weird and funny I did creepy things but I was pretty goody two shoes so the idea of doing anything bad was pretty unheard of frankly I was

35:00

terrified of drawing attention to myself and getting into trouble as I continued to walk I was coming up on this old car that was maybe from the 70s I want to say it was a Volkswagen Beetle tan or light brown the handles were Chrome and skinny and they had a black button I honestly don't know cars so this totally could be off but I remember thinking that looks like a clown car and then a voice in my mind said open the back door as I walked closer I thought no that's wrong that that's breaking into a car what if I get caught why would I do that open the back door and look inside the voice said the intrusive thought was getting more convincing so I walked to the car reached out looked in the back seat and saw a crochet blanket black with bright flowers daisies the handle was cold which I remember because my fingers were numb from the cold yet they felt warm in comparison to the handle I remember only feeling the pressure of

36:00

my thumb push the button in on the handle I don't know why I'm doing this what's my end game why would I do this my brain starts to panic the moment I start to pull the door open an old lady jumps up from the back seat and looks at me the blanket draped around her shoulders I dropped my hand from the door ran the entire way home crying when I walked in the door the shock from the cold air and hitting warm air landed hard next thing I knew I'm standing in a puddle because I had peed my pants terrifying to this day whenever I get a mischievous idea or I know I'm not being safe that old lady pops into my head I don't know if she was a demon trying to pull me towards this old car or an angel trying to teach me not to make bad choices maybe she was there the entire time and I didn't see her what if I'm that child demon who scared her and that's the story she tells what I do know is that it has kept me

37:00

from ever wanting to see them again so I always try to use my head when I'm faced with obvious Good and Evil evil does sometimes look too enticing but I do wish everyone had a dose of this image of this woman in their mind to keep you on the right path see you on the other side Katie Katie I remember remember okay oh yeah Katie also said in campfire stories that when this happened when she came home and peed herself her mom was like no it was just your imagination sometimes when you go from really caught to really cold to really hot you pee and so her whole life it's after that she was she was afraid that when she went from like one temperature to another she like prepared herself to almost pee herself but that's such a what a gentle and kind mother to be like it's okay and you just come up with some some sort of excuse yeah yeah sometimes we pee ourselves because it's not your fault it's the temperatures or the scary ghost lady in the car

38:00

yeah I remember I mean I was just as confu I'm just as confused now about it as I was when we were talking about it in campfire stories because at one point I mean sort of like what Katie was saying with is she the the demon child that scared this woman in the car but she had looked in the car and this woman wasn't there before and then suddenly the woman appeared right I feel like you would be able to see the shape of a human underneath a blanket if you looked in and saw the blanket saw the detail to that extent and she wasn't just a regular looking lady yeah no right scared this was something meant to be scary because another part of me was like oh what if it was this weird little time slip where they're both kind of blipping in and out of being around and near and in this car but again the woman's appearance to Katie's recollection was terrifying and felt demonic and really scary and so that wouldn't just be oh my God I'm scared because the little old lady I I didn't notice that little old lady in the car yeah is it was it a spirit was she the

39:00

one who was like wanting to pull a prank kind of like you were just talking about with ghosts like like daring one another to do certain things like it just goes like I have nothing to do today what time is it oh the kids are walking home let's see who uh who walks by first or maybe Disney was a little bit right you know when when Disney presents some of the like evil creatures and the villains is still presenting as as scary but like still lures people in you're like wow what who would do that I would never go with the sea witch but maybe maybe there's some some fact to it maybe Katie could have been put under a spell if she hadn't run away immediately and that's how black-eyed kids are made oh was that the mama um okay okay I don't have a story about a mama but I do have a story about it

After death visitations

40:00

but a good one this is from Monica it's called my dad let me know he was okay after death oh okay honestly I feel like we've had a lot of positive stories in this episode and I'm kind of shocked that we did this yeah with the exception I mean Katie's scary Katie's is the only one everything else yeah quite lovely okay consider it ghosts hi y'all well I'm not caught up with your guys's podcast I'm a new listener still but I thought I would share my story it's not super paranormal but it was a way of communication back in November of 2020 I lost my dad to covid I've said this before in a previous email but [ __ ] covid he was 60 and he was super healthy backstory my whole family got coveted including my kids but my dad saw how sick my brother and Mom were and I guess he just figured he wasn't experiencing severe symptoms and didn't want to complain until we were calling 9-1-1 because he wasn't responding I was the only one negative so I went out to get the medicine and when I was

41:00

on the road my mom kept calling me crying asking me to call 9-1-1 because my dad wasn't responding oh no I was awake oh he wasn't even passed out he was just in such a days like state that when they were calling him he was basically just staring into space and trying to breathe oh my gosh I rushed home and I saw my dad's eyes and I didn't want to admit it then but I swear I knew I would lose my dad when my dad went to the hospital it was a roller coaster of emotions he got taken by ambulance because his oxygen was at 50 percent normal oxygen is 99 percent and the paramedics were shocked that he wasn't passed out and even told us how strong my dad was this was so sad I know it's a horror it's a horrific horrific thing when he got to the hospital with oxygen he was alert again and I even spoke with him on the phone asking him to listen to his doctors because we missed him in the next five days I lost my dad he was sedated first so that he

42:00

could keep his oxygen on because he insisted on being released then his lungs collapsed and he was intubated then they started him on plasma and he started responding and then after good news he had a blood clot travel to his brain while he was intubated and by the time the doctors realized it was in his brain the bleed was so massive that they said even surgery wasn't guaranteed to bring him back wow I'm so sorry I know I'm the youngest of my siblings and I'm only 27. I lost my dad at 26 years old and I was so heartbroken when my dad was gone I was the one who remained strong for the family my mom and siblings were falling apart and here I was a single mom mourning alone and apart because when I was around them I kept myself together to this day I have been affected by this because I just held in so many emotions anyway we lost him on November 20th and we had to move fast for the funeral

43:00

arrangements as Thanksgiving was the next week we hurried to give my dad the funeral that he deserved and then continued life but holidays were coming up and obviously this was even more hard because the first are always the hardest the first Christmas birthdays Etc without them by mid-December most of my family members had dreamed about him and told me that he had visited them but I hadn't been visited by him and I was so upset yeah that would be such a bummer yeah until Christmas Eve I fell asleep crying the day before and I dreamed that I was home and I woke up because I could hear my dad laughing in the kitchen so I ran towards his voice and I started crying and hugging him and asking him how he was there because I knew he wasn't supposed to be there and he kept telling me hey hey it's okay it's okay I'm fine I'm right here with you and I kept touching his face and asking him if he was really there with me and he told me yes it's me I'm always with you and then I actually woke up from the dream I walked to the kitchen in tears and I told my mom about the dream

44:00

this was the one time I've dreamed of him but he let me know that he's always with me and that he's okay I hold on to this dream so close in my heart because I need to let my dad rest in peace that's my story thank you so much happy holidays and stay spooky and this is from Monica Monica I am so sorry for your loss and you know losing a family member losing a loved one is never never easy but for it to be so sudden and unexpected it's just I mean yeah it's never easy but this is just heartbreaking and I'm sure it's something so many people can relate to and it's yeah I'm I'm just so sorry for your loss but I do think it is really really special to have had that dream and to know that your dad is still with you but I also want to say like to to anyone else who has lost a loved one and hasn't had a
