Speaker 1: What's that at and pooky, I'm pretty sure it's dead.
Speaker 1: He's coming this way. Wait a minute, he said by
Speaker 1: Ross Dress Pose, Hey boo. Is that what fun ghosts say?
Speaker 1: I feel like that's what a fun ghost would say.
Speaker 1: Like you know all those other ghosts, they're so drab
Speaker 1: and they're always like boom. But I'm a fun ghost.
Speaker 1: I say, hey boo. Hey guys, this is Ro's Dress
Speaker 1: fal Us. You're listening to Ghosted by Ros Dress Flus.
Speaker 1: I'm your host or hostess. You remember gender right now.
Speaker 1: If you're not familiar with my work, I'm an La
Speaker 1: based drag queen comedian. I love a good laugh and
Speaker 1: I love a good spooky, ooky, freaky, dicky story. But
Speaker 1: I've decided to combine the two of my two loves
Speaker 1: of laughing and also being scared into one brand new podcast.
Speaker 1: So here on ghost It. Every week, I'm going to
Speaker 1: be inviting on some of my favorite people in Hollywood,
Speaker 1: many of whom you may already know, to hear their
Speaker 1: tales of personal experiences with the paranormal. Sarah Normal, that'd
Speaker 1: be a good drag queen name. I like that it
Speaker 1: should be if it's not. Now, we live in Hollywood, California.
Speaker 1: It's a place where dreams come to die and the
Speaker 1: dead seem to thrive. The epicenter of show business as
Speaker 1: well as unfinished business. Paranorma. I like that better, Paranorma.
Speaker 1: So this show is basically going to be like celebrity
Speaker 1: ghost stories, but you know, with a sense of humor
Speaker 1: when it's appropriate. But some of the stories might be
Speaker 1: a little bit more personal as well. Now I'm somebody
Speaker 1: that basically lives their life like it's Halloween three hundred
Speaker 1: and sixty five days of the year because I'm a
Speaker 1: drag queen. I played dress up for a living, I
Speaker 1: eat lots of candy all the time, and my favorite
Speaker 1: thing to say to people is tell me a ghost story.
Speaker 1: I have been fascinated by ghosts my whole life, and
Speaker 1: I'm in no way a skeptic. Trust me, I'm actually
Speaker 1: quite gullible. Like somebody told me years ago that Guy
Speaker 1: Fieri was the lead singer of smash Mouth, and I
Speaker 1: just recently found out that they were fucking with me
Speaker 1: the whole time. But like many of you, I've had
Speaker 1: many ghosts experiences, but I just I don't understand ghosts
Speaker 1: or poultergeists or apparitions or demonic entities or any of
Speaker 1: that dark sided stuff. I don't understand it, but I
Speaker 1: have had these experiences and all I know is that
Speaker 1: I can't explain them. So would I would feel pretentious
Speaker 1: if I was to say that I have a sixth sense,
Speaker 1: because I definitely don't think that I do. However, I
Speaker 1: grew up in a home that my loving grandmother spent
Speaker 1: her dying days in, and from a young age I
Speaker 1: learned that I'm often able to recognize when a spirit
Speaker 1: is in the room. I kind of get that feeling
Speaker 1: as well, where the hairs on the back of my
Speaker 1: next stand up and I can tell that there's something
Speaker 1: in the room. But again, I don't have a sixth sense.
Speaker 1: I think there's a reason why I don't have my
Speaker 1: own television show because my skills aren't that good. And
Speaker 1: trust me, I would take the Hollywood medium Tyler Henry's
Speaker 1: job in a heartbeat. I already have the cosmetics for it. Actually,
Speaker 1: the Hollywood medium Tyler Henry, it would be a total
Speaker 1: dream guest for the show. And I'm hoping to have
Speaker 1: psychics and experts on the topic to actually help me
Speaker 1: answer some of these questions once and for all. But yeah,
Speaker 1: I'll talk about some of my own personal experiences. Again,
Speaker 1: I don't have a sixth sense. It's just this thing
Speaker 1: that I have. It's sort of like it's similar to
Speaker 1: a smell or a taste, or a touch or a
Speaker 1: sound or a site or when you can talk to
Speaker 1: Bruce Willis but no one else does you know what
Speaker 1: I mean? But it's not a sixth sense. I swear
Speaker 1: every episode I plan to bring on different guests to
Speaker 1: share their ghost stories. But I also want to hear
Speaker 1: from you, our listeners, because I don't want this just
Speaker 1: to be about Hollywood. I want to know all kinds
Speaker 1: of paranormal ghost stories. Think of this sort of as
Speaker 1: like a slumber party or like we're hanging out around
Speaker 1: the campfire. I want to hear some spooky shit. So
Speaker 1: here's what you can do. Give us a five star
Speaker 1: rating on Apple Podcasts or Himalaya and tell us in
Speaker 1: the comments what your ghost story is, and I will
Speaker 1: read it on the air in the intro to each episode.
Speaker 1: Another fun thing that we're going to be doing every
Speaker 1: episode is playing a little game called EVPs or ev
Speaker 1: Please if you don't know what an EVP is it
Speaker 1: is electronic voice phenomenon. It's that thing you always see
Speaker 1: in those ghost hunter TV shows when they claim to
Speaker 1: have captured a ghost voice, and sometimes they're pretty accurate,
Speaker 1: but sometimes it's like man were and then they're like, oh,
Speaker 1: I think it just said I'm very angry, and it's
Speaker 1: like who knows? And that to me, that's an ev Please.
Speaker 1: But if you have captured an EVP in your ghost
Speaker 1: hunting experience, send it to me at ghosted by Ras
Speaker 1: at gmail dot com. And each episode, when I have
Speaker 1: my guests here, we're gonna try to figure out what
Speaker 1: that EVP actually says. So make sure when you send
Speaker 1: that to me, you also include what you believe the
Speaker 1: entity is saying and where you captured it from. And
Speaker 1: when you send me your stories about being ghosted. Come on,
Speaker 1: I don't want to hear about social ghosting. Oh my
Speaker 1: friend stopped talking to me. You know that term ghosted,
Speaker 1: or or that you've been caspered, which is when you're
Speaker 1: friendly ghosted, or that you've been Poulter geisted, which is
Speaker 1: when someone stops talking to you because they've been trapped
Speaker 1: in a TV You know the story I want to
Speaker 1: hear real paranormal phenomenon, real stories, fake lady. Okay, fine, Nah,
Speaker 1: I will share one of my own stories. I can
Speaker 1: feel that you guys are pressuring me, but I guess
Speaker 1: I'll do it. I'm very shy, but I'll do it. Okay.
Speaker 1: I have many ghost stories, and some of them are
Speaker 1: kind of sweet. But this story that I'm about to
Speaker 1: tell is very very creepy. And again, I don't I
Speaker 1: don't know how demons work, and I'm such a believer
Speaker 1: of this stuff, and I just hope that I am
Speaker 1: not conjuring anything back into my life. If you are
Speaker 1: a demon and you are listening to this podcast, please
Speaker 1: Liken subscribe now. Please don't don't come into my life,
Speaker 1: but give us five stars. Okay. So this all started
Speaker 1: in November of two thousand and nine. Now, most people
Speaker 1: that know me know that I am the bargain Bin
Speaker 1: beauty ras dress Feles. I love a thrift store. It's
Speaker 1: basically the only shopping that I do is in thrift stores.
Speaker 1: Every once in a while, I'll see different knickknacks and
Speaker 1: patty wax and give a dog of bones that I
Speaker 1: think look really cool. In a thrift store, usually some
Speaker 1: kind of old vintage item, and I just look at
Speaker 1: it and I think, you know, I don't need that,
Speaker 1: but I just can't imagine it going to someone else's house.
Speaker 1: It has to be mine. This happened this day in
Speaker 1: November of two thousand and nine. I saw a Wiji board.
Speaker 1: I know, I know, I should not have even touched it,
Speaker 1: but I saw this Wigi board. It was from the
Speaker 1: nineteen sixties. It was so vintage and cool looking. It
Speaker 1: was in the box, it had the little piece, it
Speaker 1: had the board. I just knew I needed to have it.
Speaker 1: It was only a dollar as well, so I bought
Speaker 1: it and I took it home to my studio apartment
Speaker 1: at the time in North Hollywood, and I told myself,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to use it because I believe in
Speaker 1: this stuff and I don't want any problems. I'm not
Speaker 1: looking for trouble here. Ouigi. I just want you because
Speaker 1: you're cool looking. So I put it in the corner
Speaker 1: of my living room. Again, it was a studio apartment.
Speaker 1: It was also the kitchen and the bedroom. But I
Speaker 1: put it in the corner of the living room and
Speaker 1: it just stayed there for a couple of days. Everything
Speaker 1: was fine. Then one night. I had to wake up
Speaker 1: early the next day to go to work, and I
Speaker 1: was just trying to sleep, and I was having a
Speaker 1: hard time sleeping. Thank god, I was not asleep yet,
Speaker 1: because as you'll hear me say many times on the show,
Speaker 1: I don't want to be messed with when I'm sleeping
Speaker 1: from the other side. Stay away other side, not when
Speaker 1: I'm sleeping. So I'm about to sleep, you know, sort
Speaker 1: of in that middle state of almost sleeping, when I
Speaker 1: kind of noticed, oh, I keep hearing this deep breathing
Speaker 1: outside the window. I lived on a floor a building
Speaker 1: that was on the first floor. There was one floor
Speaker 1: below me, and there was a parking lot that was
Speaker 1: right below my window. And so I thought, you know, okay,
Speaker 1: somebody's just out there, maybe smoking or who knows what
Speaker 1: they're doing. But I started to realize, okay, this has
Speaker 1: been going on for like a long time, and they're
Speaker 1: right outside my window. And it was as if they
Speaker 1: we were walking back and forth the perimeter of my apartment,
Speaker 1: just from one side to the next, right below us,
Speaker 1: one floor below, breathing just and I could hear their
Speaker 1: shuffling on the pavement right below me. Now, after a
Speaker 1: little bit of time had gone by. I noticed that
Speaker 1: the breathing was getting louder. It was sort of slowly
Speaker 1: getting louder, and the shuffling on the pavement stopped. So
Speaker 1: I'm hearing this, And then I heard the shuffling on
Speaker 1: my carpet. It was shuffling and breathing closer and closer
Speaker 1: to my bed, which was on the far side of
Speaker 1: the room, the opposite side of the window. Now the
Speaker 1: shuffling is getting closer and closer. You guys, this sounds ridiculous,
Speaker 1: but this is true. This really happened to me. And
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I heard as if someone sat
Speaker 1: down on my bed and I jumped. I turned really quickly,
Speaker 1: and there was nothing there. And I instantly heard sort
Speaker 1: of like a I don't know if you can hear this,
Speaker 1: but like a like this sound like almost like fingers
Speaker 1: on the inside walls of my apartment, just like a
Speaker 1: scattering on the inside walls and on the inside ceiling,
Speaker 1: not the roof the ceiling, like you could feel it
Speaker 1: on the inside. The call was coming from inside the house.
Speaker 1: Then a light flickered on and off, and little noises
Speaker 1: just kept occurring all night, and I eventually might have
Speaker 1: gotten a very little amount of sleep, and I went
Speaker 1: to work the next day and I was terrified that
Speaker 1: there there might be a demon in my apartment. I mean,
Speaker 1: I didn't know what to think, and I was so
Speaker 1: scared to go home. And a friend of mine had
Speaker 1: given me these protective stones and a crucifix or no,
Speaker 1: a rosary. I was raised Catholic, and so I put
Speaker 1: that in the box, and I put it in a bin,
Speaker 1: and I put it in my closet, and you know what,
Speaker 1: things kind of stopped. But then I moved to another
Speaker 1: apartment and I kind of forgot about it, like maybe
Speaker 1: a year had gone by. I wasn't really thinking about
Speaker 1: that Ouiji board. There was not really any problems. And
Speaker 1: the first night that I got to my new apartment,
Speaker 1: I was sleeping and I heard a very similar sound
Speaker 1: to that sound of the scattering on the wall, but
Speaker 1: this time it was this sound as if something was
Speaker 1: touching the wall and then sliding down. I don't know,
Speaker 1: can you hear those like a and then slide Oh
Speaker 1: my god. It was so scary. And it was the
Speaker 1: same kind of thing like the first time, where I
Speaker 1: was like, Okay, whatever that is, it's going on. For
Speaker 1: a long time, and it seemed to it seemed like
Speaker 1: it was happening, you know, as I would acknowledge it,
Speaker 1: it would stop and then it would start again. And
Speaker 1: you know, I had many occurrences. I had a friend
Speaker 1: come over to the house and he was kind of
Speaker 1: sniffing around my kitchen and he was like, why is
Speaker 1: that sound. It sounds like there's a leak. And I
Speaker 1: noticed it too, and it just kept sounding like something
Speaker 1: was dropping from the ceiling, like a small like a leak,
Speaker 1: but there was nothing there. And that would happen on
Speaker 1: and off all the time. My ceiling fan would turn
Speaker 1: on and off sometimes. And then there was one day
Speaker 1: where I was sitting with my adorable Pomeranian, Rocky. We
Speaker 1: were sitting on my couch and I lived alone, so
Speaker 1: I always had the the toilet seat up. Yes, I'm
Speaker 1: a man, I know. I had the toilet seat up,
Speaker 1: and Rocky and I were sitting there watching TV, and
Speaker 1: all of a sudden, the toilet seat slammed and you
Speaker 1: know that sound, you know that sound. There's no way
Speaker 1: it was something else. I was so scared, but I
Speaker 1: also had to pee, and so I held it for
Speaker 1: a while and then Rocky ran over to the bathroom
Speaker 1: and ran back into my arms. He just like bolted
Speaker 1: back as if he had seen something in the bathroom.
Speaker 1: Now I had to pee, and it was time for
Speaker 1: me to go to the bathroom, and so I finally
Speaker 1: got the courage. I was so scared, I didn't even
Speaker 1: want to move, like, I just seriously did not want
Speaker 1: to go over there. But I finally went to the
Speaker 1: bathroom and the toilet seat was up. Unexplained events, folks,
Speaker 1: That's what we'll be talking about here now. Eventually I
Speaker 1: I threw it away. I threw away the Ouiji board
Speaker 1: as I moved to the next location. And I knew
Speaker 1: that because it was certainly more active in my second
Speaker 1: apartment for whatever reason. And I knew that it was,
Speaker 1: you know, there was some kind of energy that I
Speaker 1: associate with that board, because nothing really happened until I
Speaker 1: got that boorared. Weirdly, I never felt like any true evil.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. The whole time I had it,
Speaker 1: I didn't know how to get rid of it. I
Speaker 1: heard many different people telling me what I should do.
Speaker 1: That it's now attached to me and not attached to
Speaker 1: the board. I don't know I really I haven't experienced
Speaker 1: anything like that since I got rid of it, and
Speaker 1: I'm very grateful for that. Okay, so that's one of
Speaker 1: my many world famous ghost stories, and don't worry, I've
Speaker 1: got plenty to share. I can't wait for you to
