Let's go for it? 50 00:03:51,480 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 2: Amazing. So, going into the fall of two thousand and nine, 51 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:58,280 Speaker 2: I was just finishing up college, height of the recession. 52 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:00,920 Speaker 2: I can't find a job, Like what do I do? 53 00:04:01,560 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 2: And so I decide to apply to teach English in France. 54 00:04:05,320 --> 00:04:08,680 Speaker 2: And so I get a gig and accept it into 55 00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:11,920 Speaker 2: the northeast corner of France, into a region called the Arden. 56 00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:15,440 Speaker 2: The thing I didn't know about the Odden before moving 57 00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,919 Speaker 2: there is that it is known for all types of 58 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:25,840 Speaker 2: fairy mythology gnomes, trolls, fairies. But also it's an area 59 00:04:25,880 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 2: that's seen an enormous amount of war and destruction ever 60 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:33,400 Speaker 2: since kind of pre Middle Ages. It's the area that 61 00:04:34,040 --> 00:04:37,760 Speaker 2: is super mountainous and really rocky, rough terrain and troops 62 00:04:37,920 --> 00:04:41,680 Speaker 2: typically invaded who wanted to get to the UK, who 63 00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,560 Speaker 2: wanted to invade the Gaul region in France. So it's 64 00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:49,320 Speaker 2: seen a lot of death and arriving off of the 65 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,320 Speaker 2: train there not knowing where I was going, what I 66 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 2: was doing, just kind of being hit with a super 67 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 2: heavy energy from the region. It was like almost hard 68 00:04:58,960 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 2: to breathe there. And so I had a one year 69 00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:06,480 Speaker 2: contract there and it kind of began my time in 70 00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 2: the odden. 71 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:11,880 Speaker 1: So when you arrived, were you like okay, Like. 72 00:05:12,160 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, it was like what did I sign up for? 73 00:05:15,920 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: There's like little trolls and ferries crawling all over you. 74 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: You're like, okay, it's better than the American recession. 75 00:05:22,400 --> 00:05:24,800 Speaker 2: Yes, Like I can make some type of money here, 76 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 2: I guess and kind of you know, tough out the 77 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:29,719 Speaker 2: year and see if this type of gig is for me. 78 00:05:30,520 --> 00:05:34,159 Speaker 2: And so getting there, you know, teacher salary wasn't making 79 00:05:34,279 --> 00:05:37,920 Speaker 2: much money, and so I had an opportunity to move 80 00:05:38,080 --> 00:05:43,159 Speaker 2: into an efficiency room in an old building that's on 81 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,360 Speaker 2: the very on the top floor of a high school, okay, 82 00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:47,520 Speaker 2: And so this. 83 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,120 Speaker 1: Was built like an active high school. 84 00:05:50,080 --> 00:05:53,919 Speaker 2: Active high school, and they had these efficiency rooms that 85 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:57,000 Speaker 2: were used typically for people who were doing work in 86 00:05:57,040 --> 00:05:59,440 Speaker 2: the region, or they would rent them out to like 87 00:05:59,560 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 2: visiting teachers, or just kind of random people who were 88 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:06,839 Speaker 2: in and out of town and somehow connected to the school. Okay, 89 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:10,719 Speaker 2: so I move into this room and end up moving 90 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:13,680 Speaker 2: into the larger building with three other folks who were 91 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:18,279 Speaker 2: teaching language also in the city.

To you know, it feels like kind of 95 00:06:27,640 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 2: summer camp. 96 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:29,960 Speaker 1: Buy this sounds like a sitcom. 97 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,960 Speaker 2: It's kind of how it felt at the beginning. And 98 00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,560 Speaker 2: so we get there and you know, we're all excited 99 00:06:36,600 --> 00:06:38,960 Speaker 2: to meet each other. We all have drinks and dinner 100 00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: and stuff the first night, and then we all go 101 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:46,680 Speaker 2: to bed and everyone is well asleep. It's all it's quiet, 102 00:06:46,680 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: it's dark, all those things, and I'm fading, starting to 103 00:06:50,480 --> 00:06:53,440 Speaker 2: fall asleep. I close my eyes and I feel tiny 104 00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 2: footsteps scurry across my chest. I'm laying on my back 105 00:06:57,800 --> 00:07:01,480 Speaker 2: and the footsteps run across my chest and stop at 106 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:06,280 Speaker 2: my ear and say in my ear, he's here. At 107 00:07:06,279 --> 00:07:09,680 Speaker 2: which point something grabbed me by the arm and yanked 108 00:07:09,680 --> 00:07:12,760 Speaker 2: me out of bed. What Yeah, So I wake up 109 00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,160 Speaker 2: on the floor and I'm like, okay, well that just happened. 110 00:07:18,720 --> 00:07:21,720 Speaker 2: Kind of get my wits about me and drink some 111 00:07:21,760 --> 00:07:23,520 Speaker 2: water and just kind of go back to sleep. 112 00:07:23,680 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: Were you a ghost believer at this point or you know, 113 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:28,280 Speaker 1: how did you feel about something like that. 114 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:32,640 Speaker 2: I've always I like to believe, or have felt in 115 00:07:32,720 --> 00:07:35,320 Speaker 2: some way that there's just bigger stuff out there. There's 116 00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:38,840 Speaker 2: other things, different dimensions of things. So I've always been 117 00:07:38,880 --> 00:07:42,120 Speaker 2: open to it, but have never really had an experience 118 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: like this until this time. Okay, And so then somehow 119 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 2: I managed to go to sleep, wake up the next morning, 120 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 2: and everyone is kind of having breakfast, you know, like, so, 121 00:07:52,920 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 2: now did everyone like last night?

I'm laying in bed one night 172 00:10:28,360 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 2: and I have my computer plugged in, so there was 173 00:10:30,040 --> 00:10:32,760 Speaker 2: like a little glow from the power cord, and I 174 00:10:32,800 --> 00:10:36,120 Speaker 2: wake up feeling like someone's watching me, and like, I 175 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:39,559 Speaker 2: just like, what is this? And there is a shadow 176 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 2: that's darker than the room next to the illumination of 177 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 2: my computer cord, in the shape of a man wearing a. 178 00:10:47,640 --> 00:10:49,440 Speaker 1: Top hat the German guy. 179 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:53,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's the German nome. And so that's why 180 00:10:53,040 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: I knew it wasn't the German guy because he didn't 181 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:58,760 Speaker 2: wear a top hat. And so this thing is like 182 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:02,160 Speaker 2: looming over me as I say, and I like, you know, 183 00:11:02,240 --> 00:11:04,200 Speaker 2: close my eyes, like how can I count to three 184 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,480 Speaker 2: and see if this is real? Open my eyes? It's 185 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,360 Speaker 2: still there. Okay, I'm just going to ignore it and 186 00:11:09,400 --> 00:11:12,520 Speaker 2: go to sleep. And so almost every single night from 187 00:11:12,520 --> 00:11:16,440 Speaker 2: then on, this thing's watching me sleep, and to the 188 00:11:16,480 --> 00:11:18,920 Speaker 2: point where like I just kind of expected it there 189 00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:21,560 Speaker 2: every night, this thing kind of looming over me, at 190 00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 2: which point I was sick the entire I was sick 191 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,600 Speaker 2: the whole time I was there, totally drained, like just 192 00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:31,839 Speaker 2: everything feeling like so heavy, and then it gets worse. 193 00:11:32,400 --> 00:11:35,320 Speaker 2: So I was there for twelve months. My roommates were 194 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:38,120 Speaker 2: all there for nine months. By the time they all left, 195 00:11:38,880 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 2: I'm there by myself and every night then the figure 196 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,880 Speaker 2: goes from watching me sleep to walking up and down 197 00:11:46,920 --> 00:11:52,440 Speaker 2: the spired roof that was over my bedroom, and so 198 00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:54,720 Speaker 2: I would hear the footsteps walking up and down and 199 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,040 Speaker 2: up and down and up and down all night long, 200 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,120 Speaker 2: and I'm just laying there and I would talk to it. 201 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:02,880 Speaker 2: I'd say like, dude, like you have to let me sleep, 202 00:12:03,080 --> 00:12:06,440 Speaker 2: Like I can't do this any longer, and it would 203 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,480 Speaker 2: just keep going until the one night it was the 204 00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:12,480 Speaker 2: worst it's ever been. And at this point, I wasn't 205 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 2: leaving my room to like even go on to any commonplaces. 206 00:12:16,360 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 2: I'd work, come home, shut myself in there, and just 207 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 2: stay in that room.

And so she finds me this like 339 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:22,320 Speaker 2: spirit healer team, and so what they do is we 340 00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,840 Speaker 2: have we have a call with them. And they immediately 341 00:19:25,880 --> 00:19:28,320 Speaker 2: said and I hadn't even thought about this as a 342 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 2: as a possibility. Oh, I'm also forgetting one story too, 343 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,240 Speaker 2: that the one night I was having a dream that 344 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:37,679 Speaker 2: this thing was trying to break my neck and this 345 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: was like one of the most like messed up interactions 346 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:44,440 Speaker 2: I had with it, And at which point I woke 347 00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 2: up that morning and I was inverted against the wall 348 00:19:49,320 --> 00:19:53,480 Speaker 2: what of like against where my bed was pushed and 349 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 2: I was like on my head but like cocked off 350 00:19:57,280 --> 00:19:59,800 Speaker 2: to the side. And I went from this like very 351 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:02,639 Speaker 2: de sleep, thinking that this thing was like trying to 352 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:06,000 Speaker 2: rotate me to break my neck, to being in that. 353 00:20:05,960 --> 00:20:08,600 Speaker 1: Position, Oh my god. 354 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:11,120 Speaker 2: And so at that point, that's when I had reached 355 00:20:11,119 --> 00:20:12,479 Speaker 2: out to my friend and I was like, I have 356 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:15,119 Speaker 2: to do something. This thing is back. I don't know 357 00:20:15,160 --> 00:20:18,080 Speaker 2: what it is, but like it's getting worse. Yeah, and 358 00:20:18,640 --> 00:20:21,520 Speaker 2: she tells me like, don't worry, like this is this 359 00:20:21,560 --> 00:20:22,399 Speaker 2: is what we do in Peru. 360 00:20:23,960 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 1: Oh, yeah, no problem, We'll give you a number three 361 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,520 Speaker 1: special and you'll be on your way now. 362 00:20:30,680 --> 00:20:32,159 Speaker 2: So what a neck trauma? 363 00:20:32,600 --> 00:20:34,399 Speaker 1: What did these people bring up to you? 364 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:38,720 Speaker 2: So they immediately brought up the tarot and they said 365 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,359 Speaker 2: you have a tarot deck, don't you? And I was 366 00:20:41,400 --> 00:20:44,320 Speaker 2: like yeah, and they said you got it in France 367 00:20:44,760 --> 00:20:46,960 Speaker 2: and I said I did. Like my Chilean friend, they 368 00:20:47,000 --> 00:20:49,600 Speaker 2: had given me this tarot deck. She read the tarot 369 00:20:50,320 --> 00:20:54,679 Speaker 2: and they said, this thing travels with with you and 370 00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 2: comes to you through your tarot. 371 00:20:57,000 --> 00:20:59,760 Speaker 1: Oh, so that lady gave you a haunted tarot. 372 00:20:59,600 --> 00:21:03,600 Speaker 2: Deck something or became haunted. I don't want to put 373 00:21:03,600 --> 00:21:06,520 Speaker 2: it all on her, but yeah, so you know, in 374 00:21:06,560 --> 00:21:09,200 Speaker 2: the spirit of your podcast, if I still had the deck, 375 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 2: I would put it on eBay. Yeah, do something with it. 376 00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:15,840 Speaker 1: So what ended up happening with that? Where do you 377 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,480 Speaker 1: go from here with this? With these Peruvian shaman people. 378 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 2: Yes, so they they do a cleansing on me, at 379 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,359 Speaker 2: which point, like I feel things moving in my body, 380 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,520 Speaker 2: and they give me a ritual to perform to get 381 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:32,480 Speaker 2: rid of the tarot and it involves burning it. And 382 00:21:32,520 --> 00:21:36,160 Speaker 2: so I go onto the roof of my fifth floor, 383 00:21:36,200 --> 00:21:39,760 Speaker 2: walk up and creep through the attic or the roof 384 00:21:39,840 --> 00:21:42,399 Speaker 2: door that no one's supposed to access with it with 385 00:21:42,440 --> 00:21:44,359 Speaker 2: a lighter in my pack of tarot and a bowl, 386 00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:46,879 Speaker 2: and I'm like, I'm going to burn these things. And 387 00:21:46,920 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 2: so I go up there and I can you not rise? 388 00:21:49,640 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 2: Like I was up there for probably forty five minutes 389 00:21:52,160 --> 00:21:56,440 Speaker 2: trying to burn these paper cards and they just wouldn't burn. 390 00:21:56,840 --> 00:21:59,280 Speaker 2: And so I'm like trying over and over and over again, 391 00:21:59,320 --> 00:22:01,520 Speaker 2: and then I switched from a lighter to matches, and 392 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:06,399 Speaker 2: then just nothing was taking. And so eventually, after about 393 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 2: that time and reciting the words that they told me to, 394 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 2: the taro finally catches and burns into nothing just gone. 395 00:22:14,520 --> 00:22:18,560 Speaker 2: And ever since that time, I haven't had any interactions 396 00:22:18,640 --> 00:22:20,439 Speaker 2: with the same type of spirit. 397 00:22:20,800 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 1: And this spanned how many years. 398 00:22:22,920 --> 00:22:26,800 Speaker 2: From two thousand and nine until twenty and fifteen. 399 00:22:27,400 --> 00:22:32,800 Speaker 1: Wow, oh my god, this is so scary. 400 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 2: When I like bring it up with my family, Like 401 00:22:35,080 --> 00:22:37,359 Speaker 2: I told my mother, I'm so excited I'm going to 402 00:22:37,359 --> 00:22:39,159 Speaker 2: talk to Roz today about this, and she said, I 403 00:22:39,160 --> 00:22:41,920 Speaker 2: don't think you should. She said, whatever this is has 404 00:22:41,960 --> 00:22:44,920 Speaker 2: been put to bed, and she's like, I don't think 405 00:22:44,960 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 2: you need to tell anyone about it. I said, well, 406 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 2: this is why I want to, because like years after this, 407 00:22:50,760 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 2: I was sharing a piece of the story with a 408 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:55,440 Speaker 2: friend of mine and she said, do you care if 409 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,200 Speaker 2: I tell my friend at at a UK paranormal society 410 00:22:58,240 --> 00:23:00,160 Speaker 2: about this? And I said no. If I can help 411 00:23:00,160 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 2: somebody and putting them in touch with you know resources, 412 00:23:03,760 --> 00:23:06,800 Speaker 2: I'd love to do it. And so the Sky contacted 413 00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 2: me and a guy he was working with was being 414 00:23:09,440 --> 00:23:12,320 Speaker 2: haunted by a poultergeist and he told me this sounds 415 00:23:12,320 --> 00:23:16,040 Speaker 2: like pretty typical Poultergeist activity, and so he wanted me 416 00:23:16,240 --> 00:23:19,960 Speaker 2: to help this other guy solve his Poultergeist problem. And 417 00:23:20,320 --> 00:23:22,959 Speaker 2: I told him he's be with you know, thanks, like 418 00:23:23,040 --> 00:23:26,840 Speaker 2: I will share what my experience has been, but I'm 419 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:28,640 Speaker 2: not there to fix it for you. Like You've got 420 00:23:28,640 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 2: to find your own conclusion to whatever this is and 421 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:32,919 Speaker 2: why it's connecting to you. 422 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:35,639 Speaker 1: I'm sure, Yeah, that's probably a part of it. I 423 00:23:35,640 --> 00:23:38,440 Speaker 1: think about that sometimes, where it's like when you don't 424 00:23:38,560 --> 00:23:40,919 Speaker 1: you don't know anything about this stuff, it's just happening 425 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:44,320 Speaker 1: to you. And then maybe sometimes people they go to 426 00:23:44,440 --> 00:23:48,000 Speaker 1: a professional of some sort that they want them to 427 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:51,359 Speaker 1: solve it for them. But I think ultimately you have 428 00:23:51,440 --> 00:23:54,600 Speaker 1: to do it. It's your problem. If you want it 429 00:23:54,640 --> 00:23:55,920 Speaker 1: to go, you have to deal with it. 430 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:59,159 Speaker 2: It seems yeah, you know, and I've thought about this 431 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 2: a lot, and you know, was it leading me to 432 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:03,760 Speaker 2: an awareness? Did it need help? And was I not 433 00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,919 Speaker 2: like mature enough to help it? Or was it just 434 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 2: an energy suck you know that wanted to get into someone. 435 00:24:10,119 --> 00:24:13,399 Speaker 1: Yeah, but here's the thing. If you're trying to like 436 00:24:13,520 --> 00:24:16,600 Speaker 1: you want my help or whatever, how about you don't 437 00:24:17,000 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: push me against the wall and act like you're about 438 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:22,840 Speaker 1: to break my neck. Okay, that's not how you do that. 439 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:27,639 Speaker 1: So that's not how I make my friend. 440 00:24:27,840 --> 00:24:30,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah, see what we were just thinking the same thing. 441 00:24:30,320 --> 00:24:34,199 Speaker 2: I don't want to be your friend now, Okay, I 442 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:35,720 Speaker 2: want to keep my body in one piece. 443 00:24:36,560 --> 00:24:40,320 Speaker 1: Well that was a great story. Thanks for sharing it. 444 00:24:40,200 --> 00:24:41,159 Speaker 2: Thank you for having me. 445 00:24:43,400 --> 00:24:47,359 Speaker 1: Thank you, Billy.

So this happened to you? Yes, tell 463 00:26:05,680 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 1: me everything. Were there cameras or yes, but not her cameras. 464 00:26:09,920 --> 00:26:11,040 Speaker 3: So I'll explain. 465 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:16,360 Speaker 4: So I worked as a video producer at the time, 466 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,760 Speaker 4: doing like press interviews. Okay, so when people were coming 467 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:22,919 Speaker 4: out with like a book or like a show or 468 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,320 Speaker 4: something and they were doing some press interviews, they would 469 00:26:26,440 --> 00:26:28,760 Speaker 4: come and do like a quick fifteen to twenty minute 470 00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:34,600 Speaker 4: interview at our entertainment brand at the time. And so 471 00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 4: you know, there was a new season of The Long 472 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:40,600 Speaker 4: Island Medium coming out and Teresa was on the press 473 00:26:40,920 --> 00:26:44,159 Speaker 4: tour and she was going to make a stop at 474 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,119 Speaker 4: our office, and it was really excited because I'm a 475 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:52,440 Speaker 4: huge fan, but her team was like pretty explicit that like, look, 476 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 4: don't get excited, she's not going to do any readings, 477 00:26:56,960 --> 00:27:01,800 Speaker 4: Like we have like fifteen minutes. Teresa's she's booked, she's busy, Like, 478 00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:03,960 Speaker 4: don't get. 479 00:27:03,800 --> 00:27:04,679 Speaker 3: Ready for a reading. 480 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:07,479 Speaker 4: But like you just said, if you know her, you 481 00:27:07,560 --> 00:27:10,080 Speaker 4: know she can't even go to the grocery store without 482 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,119 Speaker 4: channeling a spirit. So I felt like there was like 483 00:27:12,160 --> 00:27:14,800 Speaker 4: a pretty good chance that she would just spontaneously like 484 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:15,879 Speaker 4: break down to a reading. 485 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:16,760 Speaker 3: That's like her thing. 486 00:27:17,320 --> 00:27:20,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, that has to be so annoying for her. Because 487 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 1: she's on a time crunch.

I just 522 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 4: felt like my stomach drop and I was like, not me, 523 00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:05,239 Speaker 4: not me. Hopefully someone else in this room has their 524 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,239 Speaker 4: grandmother's rink. So I didn't say anything, but she just 525 00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:11,280 Speaker 4: started like rattling off more and more specifics that were 526 00:29:11,320 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 4: like clearly about me. 527 00:29:13,400 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 3: About my grandmother. 528 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:15,080 Speaker 1: What did she say? 529 00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:18,560 Speaker 4: So first she was like, so my grandmother had als, 530 00:29:18,720 --> 00:29:22,360 Speaker 4: And she was like, and this grandmother she lost the 531 00:29:22,400 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 4: ability to walk in this lifetime because my legs just 532 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,720 Speaker 4: went numb. My legs just went up, and that's my 533 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 4: indication that. So I was like, oh my god, I 534 00:29:29,160 --> 00:29:31,560 Speaker 4: think like maybe it is me. And I still didn't 535 00:29:31,560 --> 00:29:34,920 Speaker 4: say anything. And then she was like, and this person 536 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,160 Speaker 4: is jumping up and down on the other side, letting 537 00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:40,160 Speaker 4: me know that they're free, they have their ability to 538 00:29:40,240 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 4: move back on the other side, even though they lost 539 00:29:42,200 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 4: it here on Earth. So that was like, like I 540 00:29:45,080 --> 00:29:47,040 Speaker 4: just she kept on like saying things like that. 541 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:49,760 Speaker 3: She brought up the ring again, and. 542 00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:52,040 Speaker 4: Then finally I was like, I think it's me, Like 543 00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:54,480 Speaker 4: I chose to like so, and she was like, why 544 00:29:54,480 --> 00:29:57,040 Speaker 4: did you say something? Get over here, and she like 545 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:00,640 Speaker 4: pulled me over and yeah, she just like channeled my 546 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:04,720 Speaker 4: grandmother and did a whole reading and it was crazy. 547 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:05,640 Speaker 3: It was crazy. 548 00:30:05,720 --> 00:30:12,280 Speaker 1: WHOA. I imagine she's probably best like in that situation, 549 00:30:12,400 --> 00:30:16,680 Speaker 1: because you know, I've always heard really good things about her, 550 00:30:16,880 --> 00:30:19,680 Speaker 1: but I've also heard people that have like sat down 551 00:30:19,800 --> 00:30:23,200 Speaker 1: to like do something, and it's it's more like, you know, 552 00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: do it, Teresa, give it to us. And I'm sure 553 00:30:26,040 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: that has to be a lot of pressure and probably hard, 554 00:30:29,760 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 1: but like if she could just pick up and then 555 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:35,520 Speaker 1: work with it, I think that's that's where she thrives. 556 00:30:36,200 --> 00:30:37,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's a really good point. 557 00:30:37,560 --> 00:30:41,440 Speaker 4: And maybe yeah, like I almost wasn't wanting it, and 558 00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 4: I think sometimes that like could I don't know, I 559 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,640 Speaker 4: didn't want to be the one it happened to and 560 00:30:48,680 --> 00:30:51,200 Speaker 4: maybe that was like my grandmother being like, well, well 561 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:52,520 Speaker 4: you will, but. 562 00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: Your grandma she's just jumping like get her attention right. 563 00:30:58,840 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 4: And there was like another kind of like specific thing 564 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:03,800 Speaker 4: she said that was just so spot on. 565 00:31:03,920 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 3: That was pretty crazy. 566 00:31:06,240 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 4: So a special thing that my grandmother and I had 567 00:31:09,480 --> 00:31:12,600 Speaker 4: was that when I was little, she once like made 568 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:15,640 Speaker 4: me a bet that my room wasn't clean.

I 822 00:43:18,000 --> 00:43:19,160 Speaker 5: genuinely don't, you know. 823 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:22,759 Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of just like you know, I 824 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 1: think about this all the time with the state of 825 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:28,279 Speaker 1: our world when it comes to trans people, and these 826 00:43:28,320 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: people are always trying to explain away everything and this 827 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,000 Speaker 1: can't happen and how is this and that? And I'm 828 00:43:33,040 --> 00:43:37,000 Speaker 1: just like, just a person is telling you how they feel, 829 00:43:37,080 --> 00:43:39,600 Speaker 1: and that is all that you need to think about, 830 00:43:39,600 --> 00:43:41,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean? And I think that way 831 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:43,359 Speaker 1: with a lot of things in life, and paranormal being 832 00:43:43,400 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 1: one of those things where you're like, I want to 833 00:43:45,200 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: explain it all, but at the end of the day, 834 00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 1: it's weird and I can't explain it, and it's just 835 00:43:50,680 --> 00:43:54,040 Speaker 1: something that I know is something Do I need to 836 00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:56,920 Speaker 1: have a full explanation? No? 837 00:43:56,920 --> 00:43:59,120 Speaker 5: No, I don't think so. I think it's a waste 838 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:02,120 Speaker 5: our of our mental and emotional energy to try to 839 00:44:02,160 --> 00:44:03,960 Speaker 5: explain something where it's just like, you know what, it's okay, 840 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 5: just take the oddity and say this is something that's 841 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:09,640 Speaker 5: interesting about that. I've experienced it and I've got a 842 00:44:09,680 --> 00:44:10,200 Speaker 5: story now. 843 00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, So what happened? What have a habit? 844 00:44:13,000 --> 00:44:16,000 Speaker 5: Okay? So my kid was born in twenty nineteen. My 845 00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:18,879 Speaker 5: child was conceived a couple of weeks after my dad 846 00:44:18,880 --> 00:44:23,640 Speaker 5: passed away. Most queer moms know when a conception happens 847 00:44:23,680 --> 00:44:25,799 Speaker 5: for what, I hope for obvious reasons that I don't 848 00:44:25,800 --> 00:44:34,120 Speaker 5: need to go into. But about three years after after 849 00:44:34,160 --> 00:44:39,480 Speaker 5: my dad passed away, my three year old spontaneously, out 850 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:42,560 Speaker 5: of nowhere, says to me, I'm sorry that when I 851 00:44:42,680 --> 00:44:47,520 Speaker 5: was your dad, I died what And I just kind 852 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,399 Speaker 5: of like my heart stopped for a second in my chest, 853 00:44:50,400 --> 00:44:53,640 Speaker 5: and I went, what, you know, and she's like, I'm 854 00:44:53,680 --> 00:44:57,640 Speaker 5: just really sorry, and I'm like, it's so, it's okay, honey. 855 00:44:57,680 --> 00:45:01,399 Speaker 5: You couldn't help that, you know. I really didn't know 856 00:45:01,440 --> 00:45:05,360 Speaker 5: how to continue with that conversation. I went, can you 857 00:45:05,440 --> 00:45:08,840 Speaker 5: explain what you mean? And she just said, I'm just sorry. 858 00:45:09,000 --> 00:45:11,600 Speaker 5: You know, three year old not a huge vocabulary, not 859 00:45:11,640 --> 00:45:14,200 Speaker 5: a huge capacity to really, you know, go deep into 860 00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:17,280 Speaker 5: a conversation, you know. So I was just like, great, 861 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:21,200 Speaker 5: you know. And the thing is is, prior to that, 862 00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:24,160 Speaker 5: when my kid was only two years old, she woke 863 00:45:24,239 --> 00:45:26,080 Speaker 5: up suddenly in the middle of the night from a 864 00:45:26,160 --> 00:45:28,040 Speaker 5: nightmare and she was crying and she was pointing at 865 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:33,600 Speaker 5: the window saying, moo, cow in the window, which, okay, 866 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:36,080 Speaker 5: that's a strange thing to say in any case. But 867 00:45:36,120 --> 00:45:38,719 Speaker 5: we're on the second floor. We have a two story house, 868 00:45:38,719 --> 00:45:41,440 Speaker 5: and the bedroom is on the second floor, and so 869 00:45:41,480 --> 00:45:43,920 Speaker 5: we're on the second floor, and we're thirty miles minimum 870 00:45:43,960 --> 00:45:47,120 Speaker 5: from the nearest farm. So that was a weird statement, 871 00:45:47,600 --> 00:45:49,440 Speaker 5: and you had to go, oh, well, just she was 872 00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:51,640 Speaker 5: having a weird dream and she said it. But the 873 00:45:51,680 --> 00:45:54,359 Speaker 5: thing is that when my dad was a kid, when 874 00:45:54,360 --> 00:45:57,839 Speaker 5: he was a teenager in the sixties, his dad worked 875 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,879 Speaker 5: for NASA based out of Huntsville, Alabama, and so they 876 00:46:01,440 --> 00:46:04,640 Speaker 5: had a little house that was on the edge of 877 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:07,640 Speaker 5: some farmland property and he shared a bedroom. It was 878 00:46:07,680 --> 00:46:09,800 Speaker 5: a single story and little house. He shared a bedroom 879 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:12,320 Speaker 5: with his brother and between their two beds was a window. 880 00:46:13,040 --> 00:46:15,800 Speaker 5: One night, they wake up in the middle of the summer, 881 00:46:15,800 --> 00:46:18,400 Speaker 5: they had their windows completely open. They wake up in 882 00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:22,160 Speaker 5: the middle of the summertime to find a cow heads 883 00:46:22,239 --> 00:46:24,799 Speaker 5: in the window, just like munch and could right next 884 00:46:24,840 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 5: to my dad's face. And he screams, His brother screams, 885 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 5: and the cow moves and he backs out, and you know, 886 00:46:32,880 --> 00:46:34,920 Speaker 5: my granddaddy comes in. He's like, what's going on, and 887 00:46:34,960 --> 00:46:37,160 Speaker 5: they're trying to explain cow in the window. There's a 888 00:46:37,160 --> 00:46:39,560 Speaker 5: cow in the window. I never told that story to 889 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,160 Speaker 5: my kid, she was two years old. I would have 890 00:46:42,160 --> 00:46:45,279 Speaker 5: had no occasion to tell my kid this story, and 891 00:46:45,320 --> 00:46:47,799 Speaker 5: I hadn't. And so the fact that she wakes up 892 00:46:47,960 --> 00:46:50,440 Speaker 5: dead asleep from a dead sleep, and she's like, move 893 00:46:50,560 --> 00:46:52,800 Speaker 5: cow in the window, and it's just terrified of this cow. 894 00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:56,080 Speaker 5: There was literally nothing that could have you know, there's 895 00:46:56,120 --> 00:46:58,680 Speaker 5: no cartoon or anything like that she could have watched 896 00:46:58,719 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 5: that would have inspired that outburst. So yeah, so that, 897 00:47:02,080 --> 00:47:03,440 Speaker 5: you know, and then a year later, the whole I'm 898 00:47:03,440 --> 00:47:05,360 Speaker 5: sorry when I was your dad I died, you know, 899 00:47:05,400 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 5: it was just like mm hmm, okay, you know, because 900 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 5: we thought it was interesting that we finally succeeded after 901 00:47:12,920 --> 00:47:15,640 Speaker 5: like three years of trying, we finally succeeded in conceiving 902 00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:18,960 Speaker 5: two weeks after my dad dies, you know. And so 903 00:47:19,040 --> 00:47:21,440 Speaker 5: at the time, I was like, oh, that's you know, huh, 904 00:47:21,480 --> 00:47:24,319 Speaker 5: maybe maybe this is Dad's way of sticking around. But 905 00:47:24,400 --> 00:47:26,680 Speaker 5: you know, it's one of those kind of fancy thoughts 906 00:47:26,719 --> 00:47:29,240 Speaker 5: you have, you know, in the moment when you're dealing 907 00:47:29,280 --> 00:47:33,000 Speaker 5: with greed fan joy at the same time and you're 908 00:47:33,040 --> 00:47:37,359 Speaker 5: just trying to sort of soothe yourself, right, So, but 909 00:47:37,400 --> 00:47:39,600 Speaker 5: it just it's strange. Now I will say that we 910 00:47:39,719 --> 00:47:42,359 Speaker 5: haven't really had any what I guess would be called 911 00:47:42,400 --> 00:47:45,799 Speaker 5: ghost winks, you know, since then. But my kid very 912 00:47:45,920 --> 00:47:48,560 Speaker 5: much is like my dad. My dad is a professional actor. 913 00:47:48,600 --> 00:47:51,560 Speaker 5: He's very much a performer, stage performer, and my kid 914 00:47:52,360 --> 00:47:55,160 Speaker 5: loves the theater. She's five years old and she's about 915 00:47:55,200 --> 00:47:59,520 Speaker 5: to she's actually in rehearsals now for her fourth show, Whoa. Yeah, 916 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:04,200 Speaker 5: so so she definitely has a lot of my dad's 917 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,480 Speaker 5: kind of personalities. But I think it's like, is it 918 00:48:06,520 --> 00:48:09,839 Speaker 5: coming from some metaphysical place or is it just I'm 919 00:48:09,960 --> 00:48:12,840 Speaker 5: like my dad too, and so she's just naturally taking 920 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,040 Speaker 5: on my attributes as well. I mean, I think that's 921 00:48:15,080 --> 00:48:18,799 Speaker 5: probably more likely. But oh, come on, I know, I know, 922 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:21,280 Speaker 5: embrace the odd. 923 00:48:22,160 --> 00:48:25,200 Speaker 1: I know, it's so fun. Have you ever seen that 924 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:29,479 Speaker 1: show go sinceide my child? I have, Yes, it hasn't 925 00:48:29,520 --> 00:48:31,520 Speaker 1: been on it a couple of years, but I like 926 00:48:31,920 --> 00:48:34,520 Speaker 1: every once in a while because of my algorithms, like 927 00:48:34,560 --> 00:48:36,719 Speaker 1: a clip will come up on YouTube that I click 928 00:48:36,800 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: on and it's it's a lot of this kind of stuff. 929 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:43,160 Speaker 1: You know, these kids they know things or how did 930 00:48:43,200 --> 00:48:43,680 Speaker 1: you know that? 931 00:48:44,239 --> 00:48:44,839 Speaker 2: Yeah? 932 00:48:44,920 --> 00:48:47,160 Speaker 5: Yeah, my kid also had for a while, she had 933 00:48:47,200 --> 00:48:49,680 Speaker 5: the same imaginary friend that I had out of nowhere. 934 00:48:50,000 --> 00:48:50,239 Speaker 1: Wow. 935 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I never told her about my imaginary friend, and 936 00:48:53,840 --> 00:48:56,080 Speaker 5: suddenly one day she starts talking about this little man 937 00:48:56,200 --> 00:49:00,000 Speaker 5: named Joe. And I'm like whom because my imasiny friend 938 00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:02,440 Speaker 5: was a little guy named Joe, and I said he 939 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,440 Speaker 5: was the mayor of Joeville and he drove a trans am. 940 00:49:04,480 --> 00:49:05,080 Speaker 1: He know his being. 941 00:49:05,640 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 5: So she didn't go to that mischis detail, but she 942 00:49:08,360 --> 00:49:10,040 Speaker 5: was like, yeah, here's this is This little guy's name 943 00:49:10,080 --> 00:49:15,719 Speaker 5: is Joe.

So it's one of those 996 00:51:40,320 --> 00:51:41,640 Speaker 5: things where it's like I'm just going to embrace the 997 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:43,440 Speaker 5: odd and say that was a weird moment, you know, 998 00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:48,800 Speaker 5: where we just had this strange experience that we can't explain. 999 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,480 Speaker 5: And we talked to the owner of the BnB the 1000 00:51:50,520 --> 00:51:52,839 Speaker 5: next morning having our breakfast that they were so kindly 1001 00:51:52,880 --> 00:51:54,920 Speaker 5: serving us, and we were just like, have you ever 1002 00:51:54,960 --> 00:51:58,800 Speaker 5: had any activity in the carriage house? And the owner 1003 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:03,600 Speaker 5: just kind of stopped and he went why and really 1004 00:52:04,040 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 5: just curious if anyone's ever seen a guy in the 1005 00:52:07,200 --> 00:52:10,440 Speaker 5: carriage house looking like he's supposed to be working with horses, 1006 00:52:11,520 --> 00:52:14,960 Speaker 5: and he was like, yeah, a few, We've had a 1007 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:15,400 Speaker 5: few people. 1008 00:52:15,440 --> 00:52:16,760 Speaker 3: It's like, okay, that's all we needed. 1009 00:52:16,840 --> 00:52:18,480 Speaker 5: We don't need to go anymore into it. You know, 1010 00:52:18,520 --> 00:52:21,160 Speaker 5: we don't need to know if you know, circumstances or anything. 1011 00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:27,120 Speaker 1: But yeah, that is crazy. God. He was probably like 1012 00:52:27,600 --> 00:52:34,360 Speaker 1: room for one more h creep, such a creep. Wow, 1013 00:52:35,160 --> 00:52:37,839 Speaker 1: that that's good. What well, let me ask you when 1014 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:42,440 Speaker 1: you saw him, did he look transparent? I mean, if 1015 00:52:42,480 --> 00:52:44,319 Speaker 1: you know that you're in this house alone and then 1016 00:52:44,320 --> 00:52:46,200 Speaker 1: all of a sudden you see a guy, I mean 1017 00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:49,800 Speaker 1: that's yeah, and you both are you both obviously realized 1018 00:52:49,800 --> 00:52:51,399 Speaker 1: it was a ghost. Yeah. 1019 00:52:51,440 --> 00:52:54,840 Speaker 5: I mean what happened was there was through the doorway 1020 00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:59,320 Speaker 5: that we saw him in led into the bathroom, the 1021 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 5: all like onto and so it looked directly to the 1022 00:53:01,920 --> 00:53:04,279 Speaker 5: sink and there was a window there. So my first 1023 00:53:04,360 --> 00:53:07,360 Speaker 5: thought was someone standing pressed up against the window outside, 1024 00:53:07,480 --> 00:53:09,279 Speaker 5: because my brain is trying to logic out of this, right, 1025 00:53:09,360 --> 00:53:11,680 Speaker 5: So so that's part of why I didn't turn my head. 1026 00:53:11,800 --> 00:53:15,080 Speaker 5: I was just like, there's somebody there, Okay, what's going on? 1027 00:53:15,160 --> 00:53:17,440 Speaker 5: And then the more I kind of cheated looks the 1028 00:53:17,440 --> 00:53:20,480 Speaker 5: more I realized that's not outside, that's inside. And so 1029 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:22,520 Speaker 5: then it's one of those things where it's like we were, 1030 00:53:22,600 --> 00:53:24,600 Speaker 5: you know, checking off with each other, like this is 1031 00:53:24,600 --> 00:53:26,600 Speaker 5: what I'm seeing, is this is what you're seeing, And 1032 00:53:26,640 --> 00:53:28,600 Speaker 5: we were able to confirm that we were both seeing 1033 00:53:28,640 --> 00:53:30,960 Speaker 5: the same thing without giving anything. 1034 00:53:30,719 --> 00:53:31,480 Speaker 1: Away to each other. 1035 00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:36,160 Speaker 5: And then when we kind of I don't know, psychically, 1036 00:53:36,200 --> 00:53:37,840 Speaker 5: kind of communicated with our eyes like we're going to 1037 00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:40,239 Speaker 5: turn our heads now, that's when it went away. And 1038 00:53:40,239 --> 00:53:42,880 Speaker 5: so there was just no other explanation than like, Okay, 1039 00:53:42,920 --> 00:53:45,360 Speaker 5: well we just saw something we can't explain. 1040 00:53:45,920 --> 00:53:49,960 Speaker 1: I'm so mad this this always happens to people that 1041 00:53:50,040 --> 00:53:54,160 Speaker 1: don't even believe a ghost. I have wanted that to 1042 00:53:54,200 --> 00:53:57,760 Speaker 1: happen to me so many times. I mean I think literally, 1043 00:53:57,840 --> 00:54:02,120 Speaker 1: with all my ghost life, I think one or two 1044 00:54:02,200 --> 00:54:06,000 Speaker 1: times I kind of feel like I saw something like 1045 00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:08,719 Speaker 1: saw a person, but never that good where you can 1046 00:54:08,800 --> 00:54:10,600 Speaker 1: tell what they're wearing and everything. 1047 00:54:12,120 --> 00:54:16,200 Speaker 5: Yeah, that was the thing that was just completely absolutely bizarre, 1048 00:54:16,239 --> 00:54:17,800 Speaker 5: and I you know, it's one of those things where 1049 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:21,719 Speaker 5: I'm not looking for explanations, but like if someone were 1050 00:54:21,719 --> 00:54:24,080 Speaker 5: to come to me and go, okay, well, scientifically, you 1051 00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:27,280 Speaker 5: have this aspect of mirror disturbance and you know, whatever, 1052 00:54:27,520 --> 00:54:30,600 Speaker 5: swamp gas whatever, you know that I could be like, Okay, yeah, 1053 00:54:30,640 --> 00:54:32,640 Speaker 5: I can kind of see how in this situation maybe 1054 00:54:32,719 --> 00:54:37,360 Speaker 5: blah blah, but I haven't had anyone coming to me 1055 00:54:37,440 --> 00:54:39,480 Speaker 5: with anything that kind of made any sort of sense 1056 00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:42,040 Speaker 5: where I'm like, yeah, okay, you know, my logical brain 1057 00:54:42,120 --> 00:54:44,080 Speaker 5: is can buy that and go, yes, I can see 1058 00:54:44,080 --> 00:54:45,840 Speaker 5: what you're saying and I can put that together. But 1059 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:47,920 Speaker 5: with this, we just couldn't, you know, because I mean 1060 00:54:47,960 --> 00:54:49,960 Speaker 5: there have been plenty of times where we've gone into 1061 00:54:50,400 --> 00:54:52,640 Speaker 5: locations that were supposed to be haunted and you know, 1062 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:54,560 Speaker 5: we're kind of jazzed up and maybe like, oh maybe 1063 00:54:54,600 --> 00:54:57,480 Speaker 5: we'll actually see something. We never see anything. We never 1064 00:54:57,560 --> 00:55:00,920 Speaker 5: encounter anything, not even like a spooky feeling. Yeah, we 1065 00:55:00,920 --> 00:55:02,960 Speaker 5: were not in that house thinking this place is not 1066 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:04,960 Speaker 5: we're going to see something. We were we were completely 1067 00:55:05,000 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 5: focused on each other for obvious reasons. So when that 1068 00:55:08,640 --> 00:55:11,239 Speaker 5: interrupted us, that's really why I think it was just 1069 00:55:11,320 --> 00:55:15,360 Speaker 5: so striking and memorable, because we were not anticipating anything 1070 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:15,759 Speaker 5: at all. 1071 00:55:16,160 --> 00:55:18,120 Speaker 1: That's how that's when they get you, that's when they 1072 00:55:18,160 --> 00:55:22,640 Speaker 1: creep in. Yeah, well this is great. I think you 1073 00:55:22,680 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: gave us all we need. This is wonderful, fantastic. Well, 1074 00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:30,839 Speaker 1: thank you.
