1
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:21,119
Speaker 1: Hello, my friends, Welcome back to another episode of Haunting.

2
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,239
Speaker 1: It has been crazy in Purgatory, you guys. I had

3
00:00:25,280 --> 00:00:29,640
Speaker 1: no idea, but the afterlife goes hard for Saint Patti's Day. Typically,

4
00:00:29,680 --> 00:00:31,760
Speaker 1: I'm not a big Saint Patty's girl, ever since the

5
00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:33,559
Speaker 1: year I got kicked in the face by a belligerent

6
00:00:33,600 --> 00:00:36,720
Speaker 1: Irish answer. They do not mess around with that front

7
00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:39,400
Speaker 1: click move. But here it's a different beast, and I

8
00:00:39,440 --> 00:00:44,080
Speaker 1: mean that literally. Saint Patrick is the patron Saint of Ireland.

9
00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:47,639
Speaker 1: But of course we're all undead abominations, which doesn't really fly.

10
00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:51,080
Speaker 1: So in Purgatory we celebrate what's called Feast of the

11
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,320
Speaker 1: Our Talk Day. It's basically the same thing, only it

12
00:00:54,360 --> 00:00:57,120
Speaker 1: falls the day after Saint Patti's Day, and instead of green,

13
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,720
Speaker 1: everyone wears red. There's a whole lore can't really get into.

14
00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:01,200
Speaker 2: Right now.

15
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:03,160
Speaker 1: We need to get this episode started so Len and

16
00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:05,880
Speaker 1: I can get back to the festivities, which reminds me.

17
00:01:06,319 --> 00:01:08,200
Speaker 1: I got a memo from HR that I'm supposed to

18
00:01:08,200 --> 00:01:12,840
Speaker 1: read to the staff, So Len, I guess, attention employees,

19
00:01:13,240 --> 00:01:15,160
Speaker 1: this Feast of the Our Talk Day, we would like

20
00:01:15,200 --> 00:01:17,520
Speaker 1: to remind everyone that you are expected to adhere to

21
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,080
Speaker 1: all workplace protocol and protections. There should be no excessive

22
00:01:21,120 --> 00:01:24,000
Speaker 1: revelry during office hours. In in an effort to avoid

23
00:01:24,080 --> 00:01:27,920
Speaker 1: last year's misfortune, all living interlopers must remain fully intact

24
00:01:27,959 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 1: while on the premises. Thank you in human resources, boo,

25
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:37,640
Speaker 1: who cares? We are getting after it today, no rules.

26
00:01:37,920 --> 00:01:40,319
Speaker 1: In fact, we can do whatever we want because Len

27
00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,720
Speaker 1: is the feast of the our talk day parade. Marshall, Hey,

28
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:46,959
Speaker 1: it's okay, Len, Kat's out of the bag. I saw

29
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,600
Speaker 1: the scepter and your little plaid skirt, I saw the

30
00:01:49,640 --> 00:01:53,400
Speaker 1: whole get up. Well that Tartan, well, I know the

31
00:01:53,440 --> 00:01:55,920
Speaker 1: walk of the Screaming Band Cheese can't start without you.

32
00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,560
Speaker 1: So let's get this show on the road, so you

33
00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:02,800
Speaker 1: can get that show on the road. Our first story

34
00:02:02,800 --> 00:02:06,960
Speaker 1: today is from Massachusetts, a state with a rich Irish history,

35
00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:10,800
Speaker 1: where our friend Alexandra spent over fifteen years in her

36
00:02:10,840 --> 00:02:12,680
Speaker 1: own personal satanic panic.

37
00:02:13,280 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 3: Take a listen.

38
00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:18,960
Speaker 4: I am Alexandra, and I wasn't crazy.

39
00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:20,160
Speaker 3: My house was haunted.

40
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:25,800
Speaker 4: When I was twelve, my family and I moved out

41
00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:29,760
Speaker 4: of this apartment complex outside of Boston. When my mom

42
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:32,040
Speaker 4: and my siblings went to go check out the house,

43
00:02:32,480 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 4: nothing seemed out of the ordinary or anything like that.

44
00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 3: Then the realtor led them to the basement and they.

45
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:42,800
Speaker 4: Saw satanic symbols in the wall in gyed candlewacks.

46
00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:46,280
Speaker 3: It was red and it was black, and it was

47
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:47,960
Speaker 3: dripping down the walls.

48
00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,960
Speaker 4: It also had been splattered on the floor. It looked

49
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:57,080
Speaker 4: like someone was doing ritualistic things. But because I grew

50
00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:00,639
Speaker 4: up in a religious home, my mom wasn't tooorried about it.

51
00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:03,040
Speaker 4: She was like, I'll just call my friends from church.

52
00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,880
Speaker 4: He'll just come over and we'll pray over it.

53
00:03:05,440 --> 00:03:07,640
Speaker 3: She bought the house, and that's exactly what she did.

54
00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 4: They formed a circle in the basement, held hands and

55
00:03:10,919 --> 00:03:11,520
Speaker 4: they prayed.

56
00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:13,959
Speaker 3: In her mind, everything was good.

57
00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:17,200
Speaker 4: But it never felt like a safe space to me.

58
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:21,080
Speaker 4: It just wasn't a very inviting house. We had two

59
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:23,600
Speaker 4: sets of stairs. The one on the right led to

60
00:03:24,160 --> 00:03:27,680
Speaker 4: the kitchen, living room, and then a long hallway that

61
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:31,040
Speaker 4: had a bunch of bedrooms and a bathroom. The other

62
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:34,320
Speaker 4: set of stairs on the left led down into the basement,

63
00:03:34,600 --> 00:03:37,120
Speaker 4: which had three bedrooms.

64
00:03:36,720 --> 00:03:38,720
Speaker 3: A bathroom, and the laundry unit.

65
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:43,280
Speaker 4: There was one night I was in the basement next

66
00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:46,360
Speaker 4: to the laundry unit, was like this really big closet,

67
00:03:47,200 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 4: and I heard growling from behind the door. I thought

68
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,440
Speaker 4: maybe it was one of my dogs. I put my

69
00:03:54,480 --> 00:03:57,680
Speaker 4: ear to the door, and the growling intensified. It was

70
00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,080
Speaker 4: guttural and it was deep.

71
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:01,480
Speaker 3: I was too afraid to look.

72
00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:04,000
Speaker 4: I ran upstairs. I grabbed my mom.

73
00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,360
Speaker 3: I was like, can you please check if there's something

74
00:04:06,400 --> 00:04:07,760
Speaker 3: behind the door. I think that there is.

75
00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:10,320
Speaker 4: We walked back downstairs.

76
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:11,640
Speaker 3: She opened the door.

77
00:04:12,520 --> 00:04:17,719
Speaker 4: There was nothing there. Things gradually got worse and worse

78
00:04:17,760 --> 00:04:22,160
Speaker 4: and worse. I started to consistently hear things, not just

79
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:25,760
Speaker 4: the growling. I'd hear and knocking from the wall that

80
00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:29,359
Speaker 4: was behind my headboard. I would hear scratching on the walls.

81
00:04:30,000 --> 00:04:34,719
Speaker 4: It sounded like a claw slowly scratching down the wall.

82
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,919
Speaker 4: I knew it wasn't my dog because my dog was

83
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,440
Speaker 4: always next to me. The knocking and the scratching would

84
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:43,640
Speaker 4: always come in threes.

85
00:04:44,400 --> 00:04:45,839
Speaker 3: I was terrified.

86
00:04:46,040 --> 00:04:53,520
Speaker 4: Every single night after these experiences, I would run to

87
00:04:53,600 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 4: my mom's bedroom because I was so afraid. I didn't

88
00:04:55,800 --> 00:04:56,159
Speaker 4: know what to do.

89
00:04:56,480 --> 00:04:57,719
Speaker 3: I'd try to sleep in her room.

90
00:04:58,240 --> 00:05:01,000
Speaker 4: She didn't really know what to say to me, because

91
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,680
Speaker 4: she herself wasn't experiencing this. She was just like, Oh,

92
00:05:04,760 --> 00:05:06,880
Speaker 4: this is probably one of those things that like child's

93
00:05:06,920 --> 00:05:10,880
Speaker 4: experiencing nightmares. My mom decided to take me to a

94
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,360
Speaker 4: neurologist to get a better understanding of what I was experiencing.

95
00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 4: They did several sleep studies. The doctors couldn't find anything

96
00:05:19,360 --> 00:05:22,880
Speaker 4: off about my sleep or my brain activity. They essentially

97
00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,200
Speaker 4: were just like, she's a child, it's probably her imagination.

98
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,880
Speaker 4: I was frustrated and I was angry because they didn't

99
00:05:30,880 --> 00:05:34,800
Speaker 4: believe me. I very much knew what I was experiencing

100
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:37,240
Speaker 4: was real. I was like, Okay, I'm just going to

101
00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:39,360
Speaker 4: keep this to myself and learn how to deal with

102
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:41,480
Speaker 4: this because there's nothing that they can do for me.

103
00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 4: When I was in high school, my sister moved out

104
00:05:47,000 --> 00:05:49,240
Speaker 4: of the house, and so I ended up moving down

105
00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:52,360
Speaker 4: into the basement into her room because it was much

106
00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:56,560
Speaker 4: more spacious than mine. That's where the Satanic symbol was.

107
00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 3: The energy of that room was very heavy.

108
00:06:02,400 --> 00:06:04,920
Speaker 4: Once I roped it to my sister's room, I started

109
00:06:04,960 --> 00:06:10,039
Speaker 4: to experience physical things. I'd wake up with three scratches

110
00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:13,599
Speaker 4: on my body, my arms, my chest, and my legs.

111
00:06:14,320 --> 00:06:17,400
Speaker 3: I'd wake up with bruises. I woke up from being choked.

112
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,000
Speaker 4: There was a pressure around my neck and.

113
00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:20,960
Speaker 3: I couldn't breathe.

114
00:06:23,240 --> 00:06:25,080
Speaker 4: The only thing I knew how to do was just

115
00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 4: close my eyes and start crying. Archangel, Michael, please come

116
00:06:29,760 --> 00:06:30,520
Speaker 4: and protect me.

117
00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:32,560
Speaker 3: I'm really scared right now.

118
00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:41,240
Speaker 4: I just dissipated. Then one night, I was having a

119
00:06:41,279 --> 00:06:42,640
Speaker 4: sleepover with my friends.

120
00:06:43,279 --> 00:06:44,719
Speaker 3: I woke up in the middle of the night.

121
00:06:45,200 --> 00:06:49,279
Speaker 4: As soon as I opened my eyes, I realized there

122
00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:50,520
Speaker 4: was a presence in my room.

123
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:53,080
Speaker 3: I saw something in the corner.

124
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:56,040
Speaker 4: So I picked my head up and I looked, and

125
00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 4: it was a woman standing in the corner.

126
00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:02,560
Speaker 3: Of my bedroom. She was white, she was like pale.

127
00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:06,080
Speaker 4: Her hair was really really long, and it was black.

128
00:07:06,839 --> 00:07:12,800
Speaker 4: It looked brittle and dirty, and her limbs were decrepit

129
00:07:13,400 --> 00:07:19,320
Speaker 4: and just broken and misplaced. She was wearing a really long, black,

130
00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:20,640
Speaker 4: tattered dress.

131
00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:24,560
Speaker 3: She looked like she was a nun, but her.

132
00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:27,960
Speaker 4: Eyes were really dark, really really black.

133
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:30,200
Speaker 3: She didn't look human.

134
00:07:30,600 --> 00:07:32,560
Speaker 4: And she was just standing there like staring at me.

135
00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:38,720
Speaker 4: She felt demonic, purely evil. There was something about her

136
00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:45,120
Speaker 4: that felt malicious. She was looking to harm me. I

137
00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,440
Speaker 4: realized that it was her who was doing these things.

138
00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:51,160
Speaker 4: I start praying and then she's gone. This just happened

139
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:55,080
Speaker 4: every single night. So I just got to a point

140
00:07:55,120 --> 00:07:58,920
Speaker 4: of not being afraid anymore. I started to become detached

141
00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,600
Speaker 4: from what I was experienced because I didn't really have

142
00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:03,040
Speaker 4: anyone that I could turn.

143
00:08:02,880 --> 00:08:07,240
Speaker 3: To, at least I thought. I have an older brother, Stephen.

144
00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:11,680
Speaker 4: He's sixteen years older than me. He grew up with

145
00:08:11,720 --> 00:08:15,920
Speaker 4: his dad and stepmom in Florida, but my senior year

146
00:08:15,960 --> 00:08:19,600
Speaker 4: of high school, he moved back in with us. His

147
00:08:19,680 --> 00:08:21,360
Speaker 4: room and my room were very close to each other

148
00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:25,280
Speaker 4: in the basement. We had a very close relationship. It

149
00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:28,400
Speaker 4: was Black Friday. I was out with my friend. My

150
00:08:28,440 --> 00:08:32,360
Speaker 4: phone was ringing. It was my brother. He's panicking, and

151
00:08:32,400 --> 00:08:34,960
Speaker 4: he's like, you need to get home right now. And

152
00:08:35,000 --> 00:08:36,440
Speaker 4: he was like, I don't want to talk about it,

153
00:08:36,480 --> 00:08:38,640
Speaker 4: Like you just need to come home. I hung up

154
00:08:38,800 --> 00:08:43,040
Speaker 4: and my friends drove me home. On our way back

155
00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:45,560
Speaker 4: to my house, there's just all these thoughts in my

156
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,440
Speaker 4: mind about like what could possibly be going on, I

157
00:08:48,559 --> 00:08:50,560
Speaker 4: was like, Oh Jesus, what am I going to come

158
00:08:50,559 --> 00:08:53,960
Speaker 4: home to. I was preparing myself for the worst outcome.

159
00:08:55,480 --> 00:09:00,800
Speaker 4: I had never once experienced my brother terrified, so that

160
00:09:00,920 --> 00:09:01,959
Speaker 4: and of itself.

161
00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:02,560
Speaker 3: Really freaked me out.

162
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:05,679
Speaker 4: My friends dropped me off, and I see my brother

163
00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:10,960
Speaker 4: frantically just walking back and forth. His head was down.

164
00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:16,520
Speaker 4: I said, what happened. He explained to me that he

165
00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,600
Speaker 4: was about to go outside to have a cigarette, and

166
00:09:19,640 --> 00:09:23,800
Speaker 4: then he felt a presence behind him. He turns around

167
00:09:23,960 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 4: and there's a woman standing at the top of the

168
00:09:26,800 --> 00:09:30,760
Speaker 4: stairs looking down at him. He ran outside, and he

169
00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:31,800
Speaker 4: refused to go back in.

170
00:09:33,640 --> 00:09:34,560
Speaker 3: He said that she had.

171
00:09:34,400 --> 00:09:38,520
Speaker 4: Really long hair, she looked very, very old. She was

172
00:09:38,600 --> 00:09:42,920
Speaker 4: dressed in non attire. He described her limbs being all broken.

173
00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:47,360
Speaker 4: He was like, she's evil, she's dark. As he's describing her,

174
00:09:47,360 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 4: he clicks in my head it was the same woman

175
00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:53,439
Speaker 4: that I had seen. I told him I had been

176
00:09:53,440 --> 00:09:56,880
Speaker 4: seeing her as well. I felt relieved that I had

177
00:09:56,880 --> 00:10:01,199
Speaker 4: been finally validated in what I was experiencing.

178
00:10:00,160 --> 00:10:03,320
Speaker 3: But also like, what the fuck.

179
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 4: I was like, Okay, let's just go back inside the house.

180
00:10:06,800 --> 00:10:09,680
Speaker 4: We go up the stairs into my kitchen. I'm trying

181
00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:14,280
Speaker 4: to take pressure off and just ground him, so I'm

182
00:10:14,360 --> 00:10:18,280
Speaker 4: just sort of talking about random things. Finally we're like, okay,

183
00:10:18,320 --> 00:10:19,400
Speaker 4: let's go downstairs.

184
00:10:20,080 --> 00:10:21,040
Speaker 3: We walked out of.

185
00:10:21,000 --> 00:10:24,840
Speaker 4: The kitchen, but I heard a low growling at the

186
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,240
Speaker 4: end of the hallway. It was really deep and it

187
00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:32,080
Speaker 4: was really guttural. We just continued walking because I didn't

188
00:10:32,080 --> 00:10:32,960
Speaker 4: want to freak him out.

189
00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:34,520
Speaker 3: I tried to play it cool.

190
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,240
Speaker 4: When we finally reached his room, he looks at me

191
00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,400
Speaker 4: and he was like, did you hear that? My brother

192
00:10:42,480 --> 00:10:47,240
Speaker 4: having these experiences was confirmation that this wasn't all in

193
00:10:47,240 --> 00:10:50,600
Speaker 4: my head, that this was very much real. That was

194
00:10:50,640 --> 00:10:54,680
Speaker 4: a pivotal moment for me. Finally, my brother and I

195
00:10:54,720 --> 00:10:59,079
Speaker 4: were like, let's do something about this. My brother grew

196
00:10:59,160 --> 00:11:03,959
Speaker 4: up in a home where spirituality was sort of.

197
00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,360
Speaker 3: A norm for him. His stepmother was a medium.

198
00:11:07,800 --> 00:11:10,839
Speaker 4: He was introduced to that world really early on, and

199
00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:16,679
Speaker 4: he suggested that we start leaning on prayers and cleansing.

200
00:11:17,640 --> 00:11:21,439
Speaker 4: We would go around the house, especially in the basement,

201
00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:25,560
Speaker 4: which is where the energy was always the densest would

202
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:29,560
Speaker 4: do this multiple times a day, cleansing every single corner

203
00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:31,720
Speaker 4: of the room, praying while I was doing it like

204
00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:35,480
Speaker 4: there was just so much intention behind it. It took

205
00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,439
Speaker 4: a lot of time, but the paranormal activity definitely decreased.

206
00:11:41,000 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 4: I would still hear things here and there, but nothing

207
00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:51,800
Speaker 4: felt like my life was in danger. My mom finally

208
00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,280
Speaker 4: decided to sell the house when I was twenty three.

209
00:11:56,480 --> 00:11:58,400
Speaker 3: The night I.

210
00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:03,480
Speaker 4: Moved into the new place, I had a dream. I

211
00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,600
Speaker 4: saw a man and a woman, and the man was

212
00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:11,679
Speaker 4: really tall, and there was something incredibly evil about his presence.

213
00:12:13,800 --> 00:12:19,320
Speaker 4: The woman had really pale skin and black eyes. These

214
00:12:19,320 --> 00:12:23,640
Speaker 4: were the demons that I had been experiencing my whole life.

215
00:12:23,760 --> 00:12:26,160
Speaker 4: It didn't feel like they were trying to scare me.

216
00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:32,800
Speaker 4: It just sort of felt like they're revealing themselves.

217
00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:33,560
Speaker 3: And closing a chapter.

218
00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,120
Speaker 4: And the way that they looked at me just it

219
00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:41,760
Speaker 4: made me realize that they were saying goodbye. Since that point,

220
00:12:41,840 --> 00:12:46,480
Speaker 4: I've never seen them again. I've never experienced anything like that.

221
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 1: Nothing brings step siblings together like exercising a raggedy, demonic

222
00:12:54,000 --> 00:12:57,000
Speaker 1: witch lady from the basement. I wish me and my

223
00:12:57,040 --> 00:12:59,679
Speaker 1: step siblings had had that opportunity. It probably would have

224
00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:02,360
Speaker 1: kept from suing each other in family court during the divorce.

225
00:13:02,880 --> 00:13:07,280
Speaker 1: Half of all assets doesn't extend to my lue Bouton collection, Melanie,

226
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 1: better luck next time. A lot of you in the

227
00:13:20,600 --> 00:13:23,040
Speaker 1: comments are confused about feasts of the Hour talk day.

228
00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:26,880
Speaker 1: I'm still learning about the history myself. But long story, short.

229
00:13:27,120 --> 00:13:30,079
Speaker 1: Our Talk was basically an ancient Irish.

230
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:32,400
Speaker 5: Vampire blood sucking chieftain.

231
00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 1: When no one knows what a blood sucking chieftain is anyway,

232
00:13:36,920 --> 00:13:39,240
Speaker 1: he started out as like king of this town. Everyone

233
00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:41,560
Speaker 1: hated him. They said he was evil and also short

234
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 1: short king fury I call it. So one day he

235
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:47,959
Speaker 1: dies and a town is super relieved. But after they

236
00:13:47,960 --> 00:13:50,840
Speaker 1: bury him, he rises from the dead and starts sucking

237
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:54,520
Speaker 1: people's blood. Everyone's super freaked. They keep trying to kill him,

238
00:13:54,559 --> 00:13:57,520
Speaker 1: and he keeps coming back. Eventually, a wise man says

239
00:13:57,920 --> 00:14:00,520
Speaker 1: to defeat our Talk, he must be killed with a

240
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:04,200
Speaker 1: sword made of you would and buried upside down. So

241
00:14:04,240 --> 00:14:06,800
Speaker 1: they try this and it works. The Hour Talk is

242
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:09,720
Speaker 1: dead for good and his reign of terror finally ends.

243
00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:14,520
Speaker 1: According to the legend, HM you miss them stuff, Len,

244
00:14:14,520 --> 00:14:18,480
Speaker 1: We don't have time. That's the basic gist. So once

245
00:14:18,520 --> 00:14:21,040
Speaker 1: a year we google celebrate the Hour Talk with a

246
00:14:21,160 --> 00:14:23,920
Speaker 1: big parade and parties where we dress in red and

247
00:14:23,920 --> 00:14:26,600
Speaker 1: get shitfaced by drinking the blood of the drunkest Saint

248
00:14:26,600 --> 00:14:29,920
Speaker 1: Patti's day asshole, which we do kegstand style to symbolize

249
00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: the Hour Talk's final resting position upside down. They say,

250
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:37,000
Speaker 1: if you've been good all year long, you can leave

251
00:14:37,040 --> 00:14:39,240
Speaker 1: a blood chalice in your window for the hour talk

252
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:43,520
Speaker 1: and he'll bless you with prosperity and good fortune. Did

253
00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:44,360
Speaker 1: I get that right line?

254
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:45,320
Speaker 4: Well? Good?

255
00:14:46,040 --> 00:14:49,280
Speaker 5: Then a little bit more new good to hit theory.

256
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:53,080
Speaker 1: Okay, so more or less, but enough from me. Let's

257
00:14:53,080 --> 00:14:55,800
Speaker 1: get to our next guest, Emily, who's been battling a

258
00:14:55,840 --> 00:15:00,520
Speaker 1: lifelong haunt, multi generational even What can I say? When

259
00:15:00,520 --> 00:15:01,000
Speaker 1: you got it?

260
00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:01,760
Speaker 4: You got it?

261
00:15:05,240 --> 00:15:08,280
Speaker 2: I hear this thing come towards me, and I could

262
00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,320
Speaker 2: hear it walking slowly. It sounded like it was stalking something.

263
00:15:13,840 --> 00:15:16,400
Speaker 2: It made it to my bed. I could feel its

264
00:15:16,560 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 2: hot breath, and I could hear it growl, but nothing

265
00:15:20,280 --> 00:15:25,520
Speaker 2: was there. My name is Emily. Since I was little,

266
00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:31,720
Speaker 2: I feel like something dark has been falling me. When

267
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:35,240
Speaker 2: I was five years old, we lived in a two

268
00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:39,880
Speaker 2: story apartment in California. My dad would lock the doors

269
00:15:40,400 --> 00:15:44,840
Speaker 2: every night. Garage door, front door, sliding glass door. All

270
00:15:44,880 --> 00:15:49,400
Speaker 2: the doors were locked. One night I had woken up,

271
00:15:50,040 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 2: I heard the door start to creak open. I assumed

272
00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:57,440
Speaker 2: it was my mom or dad. I turn over to

273
00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:02,480
Speaker 2: check no one's there, and I start to hear these

274
00:16:02,560 --> 00:16:06,960
Speaker 2: footsteps that sounded animal like come towards me. I throw

275
00:16:07,040 --> 00:16:12,040
Speaker 2: the covers over my head. I had a phobia of dogs,

276
00:16:12,160 --> 00:16:19,359
Speaker 2: so we didn't have any pets. I hear the footsteps

277
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,440
Speaker 2: grow closer. It sounded like it was stalking, kind of

278
00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:29,280
Speaker 2: walk pause, walk pause, and then finally it made it

279
00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:33,520
Speaker 2: to my bed. I could feel the hot breath through

280
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:36,520
Speaker 2: the covers, and I could hear the panting in my

281
00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 2: left ear, and I could hear it growl. It definitely

282
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 2: had this evil feel like it was going to hurt me.

283
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:52,680
Speaker 2: It was very menacing. The growl was a deep, throaty

284
00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:58,480
Speaker 2: growl like I was its prey. I taped covers off

285
00:16:58,520 --> 00:17:01,720
Speaker 2: my head and there's nothing there, which scares me even

286
00:17:01,760 --> 00:17:04,320
Speaker 2: more because I can still hear it.

287
00:17:05,400 --> 00:17:06,720
Speaker 3: So I put the covers back.

288
00:17:06,560 --> 00:17:10,359
Speaker 2: Over my head, and I felt something jump onto my bed.

289
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:15,399
Speaker 2: My heart was racing. I taped covers off my head

290
00:17:16,359 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 2: and I could see four indentations on my bed like

291
00:17:21,119 --> 00:17:26,800
Speaker 2: paw prints. I felt very threatened. It felt very evil.

292
00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 2: I think this thing could have shown up in any form.

293
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:34,760
Speaker 2: It chose a dog because it knew I was afraid

294
00:17:34,760 --> 00:17:38,240
Speaker 2: of dogs and understood the assignment. It had evil Unton

295
00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:43,359
Speaker 2: Chins when I was sixteen years old. I was homeschooled

296
00:17:43,400 --> 00:17:45,800
Speaker 2: at the time. My four year old brother was not

297
00:17:45,880 --> 00:17:49,800
Speaker 2: in school yet. We were home with my mom. I

298
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:53,119
Speaker 2: was watching TV and my brother came up to me

299
00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:57,159
Speaker 2: and asked, can we play Hide and Seek? And I

300
00:17:57,200 --> 00:18:02,800
Speaker 2: told him, of course, I'll be At first, I put

301
00:18:02,880 --> 00:18:04,840
Speaker 2: my hands over my eyes and start to count to ten.

302
00:18:05,840 --> 00:18:09,080
Speaker 2: I am sitting on the couch directly facing the stairs.

303
00:18:10,000 --> 00:18:12,080
Speaker 2: Before I say ready or not here I come, I

304
00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:15,159
Speaker 2: open my eyes and I see his shadow and I

305
00:18:15,200 --> 00:18:21,320
Speaker 2: can hear him running up the stairs. I know he's upstairs,

306
00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:24,280
Speaker 2: but with the four year old, hide and Seek doesn't

307
00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:27,080
Speaker 2: last very long, so I am gonna keep this game

308
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:33,959
Speaker 2: going a little longer. I'm playing along looking behind the couch.

309
00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:38,439
Speaker 2: I say, oh, you're not behind the couch, and I

310
00:18:38,560 --> 00:18:43,080
Speaker 2: continue this, You're not in the bathroom. Finally, I'm over

311
00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:46,520
Speaker 2: the game and I know he's upstairs. At the top

312
00:18:46,560 --> 00:18:48,920
Speaker 2: of the stairs, there was a door and I could

313
00:18:48,920 --> 00:18:51,320
Speaker 2: see my brother's shadow through the crack of the door.

314
00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:56,800
Speaker 2: I could hear him mouth breathing, and with every breath

315
00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,680
Speaker 2: I could see the door physically move. So I start

316
00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:03,240
Speaker 2: to push on it and I could feel the resistance

317
00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:06,120
Speaker 2: from his body as I'm pushing on the door, teasing him,

318
00:19:06,560 --> 00:19:10,639
Speaker 2: you're not here, Oh, you're not behind the door. I

319
00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:15,040
Speaker 2: continue to look around the upstairs and I look in

320
00:19:15,080 --> 00:19:15,720
Speaker 2: the bathroom.

321
00:19:15,960 --> 00:19:17,440
Speaker 3: You're not in the bathroom.

322
00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:20,440
Speaker 2: You're not in my bedroom. I wanted him to think

323
00:19:20,480 --> 00:19:23,200
Speaker 2: he was winning. I come back, passing him and I

324
00:19:23,200 --> 00:19:27,400
Speaker 2: can hear him breathing. I go downstairs and sit at

325
00:19:27,440 --> 00:19:30,639
Speaker 2: the dining room table with my mom, expecting him to

326
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:34,240
Speaker 2: run down the stairs. I won, I won. You lost.

327
00:19:35,600 --> 00:19:39,160
Speaker 2: All of a sudden, I feel something grab my leg.

328
00:19:39,960 --> 00:19:44,280
Speaker 2: I jump and I scream and I look. It was

329
00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:48,760
Speaker 2: my brother under the table. I asked him, when did

330
00:19:48,800 --> 00:19:52,320
Speaker 2: you get down here? And my mom told me he's

331
00:19:52,359 --> 00:19:55,520
Speaker 2: been under the table the whole time. I assumed she

332
00:19:55,640 --> 00:19:58,840
Speaker 2: was joking with me. I said, no, he was upstairs.

333
00:19:59,160 --> 00:20:01,760
Speaker 2: I saw him. He goes, no, he was under my

334
00:20:01,840 --> 00:20:05,159
Speaker 2: feet the entire time. That's when I went, oh, no,

335
00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:09,240
Speaker 2: she's not kidding. I'm freaked out. I told my mom

336
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:13,879
Speaker 2: that I saw something run up the stairs and I

337
00:20:13,880 --> 00:20:18,040
Speaker 2: could feel the resistance of a body behind the door.

338
00:20:18,080 --> 00:20:21,119
Speaker 2: I could hear the breath and see the door moving.

339
00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:24,080
Speaker 3: She said, well, I'll go check it out.

340
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:31,600
Speaker 2: Went up there and there was nothing. I started getting sweaty.

341
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,760
Speaker 2: My heart started pounding, and I knew what I had

342
00:20:34,760 --> 00:20:39,400
Speaker 2: seen was supernatural. My thoughts are, oh crap.

343
00:20:39,119 --> 00:20:40,359
Speaker 4: This is legit.

344
00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:48,119
Speaker 2: This feels evil. A couple of weeks later, I was

345
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:53,160
Speaker 2: home alone. My mom, grandma, and my little brother were

346
00:20:53,200 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 2: grocery shopping. I was downstairs doing schoolwork and wanted to

347
00:20:58,080 --> 00:21:01,440
Speaker 2: get a quick shower before they came home. Before going

348
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:04,399
Speaker 2: up the stairs, I made sure the front door was locked.

349
00:21:07,920 --> 00:21:11,040
Speaker 2: I walked into the bathroom, I shut the door behind me.

350
00:21:14,359 --> 00:21:19,119
Speaker 2: I was in the shower and I heard the door open.

351
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:22,560
Speaker 2: I assumed it was my mom telling me she was

352
00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:26,320
Speaker 2: home from grocery shopping. But I didn't hear her voice.

353
00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:31,280
Speaker 2: So I peeked out from the shower curtain and see

354
00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:35,720
Speaker 2: that the door is wide open. I was like, Okay,

355
00:21:35,720 --> 00:21:41,160
Speaker 2: that's bizarre. So I shut the shower curtain. I am

356
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:44,399
Speaker 2: trying to rinse out my hair. I have really long,

357
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:47,800
Speaker 2: thick hair, so it's taking forever. In the shower, there

358
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:51,520
Speaker 2: is a brass handle that you turn to the left

359
00:21:51,640 --> 00:21:53,640
Speaker 2: for hot, to the right for cold, or to shut

360
00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:58,280
Speaker 2: it off. I see the handle slowly turn the water

361
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:02,399
Speaker 2: off and then slowly turned back on. I was like,

362
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:06,720
Speaker 2: oh shit, something bad is about to happen. I wasn't

363
00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:10,719
Speaker 2: even done. I just shut the water off, grabbed my towel.

364
00:22:10,960 --> 00:22:14,119
Speaker 2: The ship who is running into my eyes so I'm squinting.

365
00:22:14,560 --> 00:22:17,760
Speaker 2: My eyes are burning. I go to step into the

366
00:22:17,800 --> 00:22:21,760
Speaker 2: hallway and when I stop, I see hoof prints on

367
00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:28,280
Speaker 2: the hallway carpet. Something was walking with two hoof prints

368
00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:32,320
Speaker 2: all along the upstairs. I was like, is this an animal? No,

369
00:22:32,560 --> 00:22:35,359
Speaker 2: there's no animal with two hoofs that walks on two feet.

370
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:42,800
Speaker 2: I realize that the stairs also had the footprints. I

371
00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,760
Speaker 2: go down the stairs and I see the front door

372
00:22:46,920 --> 00:22:50,800
Speaker 2: was open, but I knew I had locked the door

373
00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:56,080
Speaker 2: before taking a shower. Who or what opened the door.

374
00:22:56,920 --> 00:23:01,919
Speaker 2: I'm freaked out, so I shut the front door. I

375
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 2: was completely alone in the house. I sit on the

376
00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:08,159
Speaker 2: couch called my mom. I told my mom this is

377
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:09,080
Speaker 2: what has happened.

378
00:23:09,720 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 3: She stopped grocery shopping.

379
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,720
Speaker 2: And came back home seeing the hoof prints. I think

380
00:23:15,760 --> 00:23:20,639
Speaker 2: what I was witnessing was demonic. I just stayed downstairs

381
00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:23,840
Speaker 2: until she came home because I was freaked out. Years later,

382
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:31,000
Speaker 2: these things have followed me into marriage. My husband started

383
00:23:31,000 --> 00:23:34,119
Speaker 2: experience and stuff. Now my four year old son is

384
00:23:34,200 --> 00:23:37,560
Speaker 2: experienced thinking things as well. He just told me a

385
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 2: couple weeks ago, Mommy, I have wake dreams. The way

386
00:23:42,080 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 2: he described it, he can open his eyes, but he

387
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:47,919
Speaker 2: can't move his body, and he will see stuff in

388
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,000
Speaker 2: his room. There was one time he's screaming for me.

389
00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,000
Speaker 2: I was in the kitchen and their rooms directly about

390
00:23:53,040 --> 00:23:56,080
Speaker 2: the kitchen. I look on the monitor. Sure enough, I

391
00:23:56,160 --> 00:24:01,040
Speaker 2: see what looks like this glowing figure walking across his room.

392
00:24:01,400 --> 00:24:03,879
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, uh huh, And I run up their

393
00:24:04,040 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 2: throw open the door, and there's nothing there. He said

394
00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 2: that he had woken up, he couldn't move, and he

395
00:24:12,920 --> 00:24:16,360
Speaker 2: saw a light monster in a dark monster that came

396
00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:19,439
Speaker 2: into his room, and he was screaming that there was

397
00:24:19,440 --> 00:24:20,760
Speaker 2: something in his room.

398
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,040
Speaker 3: It was terrifying.

399
00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:26,359
Speaker 2: I feel so bad for him. I don't know why

400
00:24:26,640 --> 00:24:31,359
Speaker 2: I have experienced such demonic supernatural stuff my entire life.

401
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:35,160
Speaker 2: I was not a believer in like witchcraft or anything

402
00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:39,200
Speaker 2: like that. Huge believer. Now, huge believer. I've seen it.

403
00:24:39,880 --> 00:24:41,080
Speaker 2: I've experienced it.

404
00:24:44,680 --> 00:24:48,280
Speaker 1: A whole spooky family. Oh there's a real opportunity there.

405
00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:51,199
Speaker 1: Start with a well managed YouTube channel to hone the

406
00:24:51,200 --> 00:24:55,040
Speaker 1: brand and win sponsorship deals, maybe for like crystals or

407
00:24:55,080 --> 00:24:58,400
Speaker 1: Halloween candy. From there, I think they could easily get

408
00:24:58,440 --> 00:25:01,639
Speaker 1: something on TLC, maybe even and E. I pitched my

409
00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,280
Speaker 1: reality show to Resitates the Wheel within an inch of

410
00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:07,919
Speaker 1: my life, to no avail. It almost killed me, of

411
00:25:07,920 --> 00:25:12,080
Speaker 1: course it didn't. That was the other incident. Some girls

412
00:25:12,080 --> 00:25:23,280
Speaker 1: have all the lunch. All right, everyone, we've got a run.

413
