<v Therésa>What was that? Len, what's happening? Wait? What? we're getting trolled? Like, like literally?

0:01:55.800 --> 0:01:56.240
<v Len>(MUMBLES)

0:02:00.080 --> 0:02:03.960
<v Therésa>Who is spamming us, you guys? not cool. Gross. How do these

0:02:04.040 --> 0:02:07.040
<v Therésa>trolls move so fast? No, no get out of here.

0:02:07.760 --> 0:02:19.720
<v Therésa>Drop it, drop it, drop it. Namoi little help here. Throw to our first story.

0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:24.120
<v STORY A>In the beginning, everything was great, but it got worse

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:30.200
<v STORY A>the longer that we were there. It was weighing on me,

0:02:30.440 --> 0:02:35.520
<v STORY A>and it was weighing on my husband, and it was scary.

0:02:36.320 --> 0:02:41.120
<v STORY A>I am Ashley and there was something dark living in

0:02:41.160 --> 0:02:52.480
<v STORY A>my house. My husband and I moved to Rowlett , Texas.

0:02:54.160 --> 0:02:57.120
<v STORY A>It is a quiet suburb twenty minutes outside of Dallas,

0:02:58.720 --> 0:03:05.839
<v STORY A>lakeside community. Cute little duplex, three bedroom, two bath, newly renovated.

0:03:07.000 --> 0:03:09.680
<v STORY A>In the beginning, everything was great. The neighbors were so

0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:13.560
<v STORY A>friendly and everything like that. But a couple months after

0:03:13.600 --> 0:03:22.120
<v STORY A>we moved in, I started noticing strange little things. I

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:25.920
<v STORY A>was making coffee one morning, I left the room and

0:03:25.919 --> 0:03:32.440
<v STORY A>I came back. All of our drawers were open. I'm

0:03:32.480 --> 0:03:35.000
<v STORY A>the only one in the house besides my daughter. My

0:03:35.120 --> 0:03:38.680
<v STORY A>husband was on shift so he wasn't there, and she

0:03:38.840 --> 0:03:41.160
<v STORY A>was eight weeks. Old at the time. She couldn't have

0:03:41.160 --> 0:03:47.160
<v STORY A>done it. So I thought that's strange, but I just like, Okay,

0:03:47.280 --> 0:03:49.920
<v STORY A>my scattered self probably opened them. So I just closed

0:03:49.960 --> 0:03:54.640
<v STORY A>them and just poured my coffee and I left. That

0:03:54.720 --> 0:03:56.920
<v STORY A>same day, I was meeting a friend and we went

0:03:56.960 --> 0:04:01.400
<v STORY A>to a softball game. When we came back, the first

0:04:01.400 --> 0:04:04.840
<v STORY A>thing that we saw as we opened the door was

0:04:04.920 --> 0:04:10.960
<v STORY A>so strange. Our house is an open floor plan, so

0:04:11.000 --> 0:04:12.720
<v STORY A>when you walked through the front door, you could see

0:04:12.720 --> 0:04:16.880
<v STORY A>the kitchen. When we came back from the softball game.

0:04:17.800 --> 0:04:22.320
<v STORY A>I opened the door and as the door opens, I

0:04:22.400 --> 0:04:26.599
<v STORY A>look up and every single kitchen cabinet is open at

0:04:26.640 --> 0:04:32.000
<v STORY A>a precise ninety degree angle. It wasn't like someone just

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:37.080
<v STORY A>came in and casually opened these cabinets. It was as

0:04:37.200 --> 0:04:42.440
<v STORY A>if someone or something intentionally placed each of those cabinets

0:04:42.480 --> 0:04:46.360
<v STORY A>at that angle. No one was home during that time.

0:04:46.720 --> 0:04:51.720
<v STORY A>I was the last person to leave that morning. I

0:04:51.839 --> 0:04:59.760
<v STORY A>just remember my stomach drop. It was a very stark image.

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:02.640
<v STORY A>You walk in that door and you see that, especially

0:05:02.680 --> 0:05:06.200
<v STORY A>since that morning I had that experience with the drawers.

0:05:09.880 --> 0:05:13.719
<v STORY A>That's when it felt like more things were going to come,

0:05:14.200 --> 0:05:17.880
<v STORY A>and there was a darker feeling. It was more of

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:24.720
<v STORY A>an unsettling feeling. I don't know, how else to describe it except

0:05:24.800 --> 0:05:28.760
<v STORY A>not safe, not light, not friendly. So that was the

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:38.440
<v STORY A>beginning of it. One night, I was laying in bed

0:05:39.600 --> 0:05:41.920
<v STORY A>and we had these sliding glass doors that looked out

0:05:41.960 --> 0:05:46.919
<v STORY A>to our backyard where we had this above ground pool.

0:05:49.120 --> 0:05:55.560
<v STORY A>I saw shadowy figures in the pool, and it was

0:05:55.600 --> 0:05:57.360
<v STORY A>far enough away and it was dark enough to where

0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:00.240
<v STORY A>I couldn't tell exactly what it was, but I could

0:06:00.279 --> 0:06:06.920
<v STORY A>definitely tell it was two figures. So I get up and

0:06:06.960 --> 0:06:10.200
<v STORY A>I go and pulled back the curtain to look in

0:06:10.240 --> 0:06:17.920
<v STORY A>the backyard. They looked like people, but they were shadows.

0:06:18.800 --> 0:06:23.360
<v STORY A>They didn't have eyes or faces, but I could feel

0:06:23.400 --> 0:06:31.159
<v STORY A>them staring at me. So I wake up my husband.

0:06:32.320 --> 0:06:35.960
<v STORY A>By the time he got to the window, he's like,

0:06:36.279 --> 0:06:39.640
<v STORY A>I thought I saw something leave, but he wasn't convinced.

0:06:41.720 --> 0:06:43.960
<v STORY A>He went out there and he looked and there was

0:06:44.000 --> 0:06:47.920
<v STORY A>nobody there. There was nobody in the alley, nobody around there,

0:06:48.000 --> 0:06:50.080
<v STORY A>hiding in the fence or the bushes, and so I

0:06:50.200 --> 0:06:56.080
<v STORY A>was just thinking, Okay, maybe you were seeing things. Shortly

0:06:56.160 --> 0:07:00.119
<v STORY A>after that, my daughter was staying in my room with me,

0:07:00.640 --> 0:07:02.280
<v STORY A>and We had two dogs at the time, and they

0:07:02.279 --> 0:07:03.640
<v STORY A>would stay in my room as well.

0:07:04.400 --> 0:07:08.040
<v STORY A>My husband, he's a firefighter, so he'll work twenty four

0:07:08.040 --> 0:07:10.280
<v STORY A>hour shifts, so he's gone for a full twenty four hours.

0:07:10.280 --> 0:07:14.680
<v STORY A>So it was just us. in my daughter's room, there

0:07:14.720 --> 0:07:18.280
<v STORY A>were all these, you know, Fisher Price toys that play music,

0:07:19.440 --> 0:07:30.720
<v STORY A>and I heard a toy going off in my daughter's room.

0:07:31.040 --> 0:07:33.679
<v STORY A>I thought it was maybe our dog, but both dogs

0:07:33.720 --> 0:07:38.160
<v STORY A>are still in my room. There was no voices. It

0:07:38.280 --> 0:07:40.560
<v STORY A>just was like this melody that would go up high

0:07:40.640 --> 0:07:41.280
<v STORY A>and cheerful.

0:07:41.400 --> 0:07:47.080
<v STORY A>And that's what made it even more eerie. I'm walking

0:07:47.600 --> 0:07:53.080
<v STORY A>through the living room into my daughter's room. As I'm

0:07:53.080 --> 0:07:56.640
<v STORY A>getting closer, my heart's racing faster the toy. Right, you

0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:58.640
<v STORY A>shouldn't be scared of a toy, but you can't fight

0:07:58.720 --> 0:08:06.160
<v STORY A>that feeling. I go into my daughter's room and I

0:08:06.200 --> 0:08:11.680
<v STORY A>see the toy that's playing the music. The toy is

0:08:11.720 --> 0:08:22.160
<v STORY A>actually switched off, but it's still playing music. I turn

0:08:22.240 --> 0:08:25.760
<v STORY A>it on, and I turn it off again, and I

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:28.800
<v STORY A>take a deep breath. I set it back down and

0:08:28.840 --> 0:08:36.400
<v STORY A>I start walking out of the room. It starts playing again.

0:08:39.040 --> 0:08:44.080
<v STORY A>That moment, I truly felt like I wasn't alone and

0:08:44.120 --> 0:08:50.960
<v STORY A>there was someone else there. As scared as I was,

0:08:51.640 --> 0:08:55.240
<v STORY A>I picked it back up, took out the batteries, and

0:08:55.320 --> 0:09:04.600
<v STORY A>as I'm leaving, it continues to play. So I closed

0:09:04.600 --> 0:09:07.360
<v STORY A>the door, went back to my room and just sat

0:09:07.400 --> 0:09:10.800
<v STORY A>there and was terrified all night long, just sitting there waiting,

0:09:11.040 --> 0:09:16.120
<v STORY A>like knowing that there is something in that room. That

0:09:16.320 --> 0:09:20.320
<v STORY A>was the first of many instances where those toys would

0:09:20.360 --> 0:09:22.880
<v STORY A>still go off even if they didn't have batteries on,

0:09:23.040 --> 0:09:28.559
<v STORY A>even if it was turned off. My daughter always had

0:09:28.559 --> 0:09:32.000
<v STORY A>a very hard time sleeping in that room. She could

0:09:32.000 --> 0:09:35.720
<v STORY A>sleep anywhere. She was the easiest baby, but no matter what,

0:09:35.960 --> 0:09:41.960
<v STORY A>she would just not settle in that room.

0:09:42.120 --> 0:09:47.760
<v STORY A>She started getting night terrors. It's like screams that you

0:09:47.800 --> 0:09:53.400
<v STORY A>have never heard before in your life, shocking, blood curling screams.

0:09:55.720 --> 0:09:58.280
<v STORY A>Then you try to comfort them and they don't recognize

0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:02.120
<v STORY A>who you are. They're almost scared of you. And she

0:10:02.280 --> 0:10:07.920
<v STORY A>would get those quite frequently. I can tell you that

0:10:07.920 --> 0:10:14.000
<v STORY A>that was not normal. One night, my husband and I

0:10:14.080 --> 0:10:16.880
<v STORY A>were sitting on the couch. We had just turned off

0:10:16.880 --> 0:10:21.320
<v STORY A>the TV, and we heard from underneath the couch this growl.

0:10:25.280 --> 0:10:30.640
<v STORY A>It wasn't like an animal growl, was unearthly. We literally

0:10:30.679 --> 0:10:37.320
<v STORY A>felt the couch shake and vibrate. We sat there for

0:10:37.320 --> 0:10:42.120
<v STORY A>a moment in silence, he said, did you feel that? Yes.

0:10:43.360 --> 0:10:49.680
<v STORY A>Did you hear that? And I said yes. My husband

0:10:49.679 --> 0:10:54.440
<v STORY A>has been a firefighter now for twelve years. He is

0:10:54.480 --> 0:10:58.400
<v STORY A>not scared of anything. He was extremely scared in that

0:10:58.480 --> 0:11:03.560
<v STORY A>moment. He's very logical, not dramatic. What you see is what

0:11:03.600 --> 0:11:09.360
<v STORY A>you get. He can joke things off, but in this situation,

0:11:10.440 --> 0:11:13.600
<v STORY A>there was no way to laugh it off. It just

0:11:13.720 --> 0:11:21.120
<v STORY A>was so real. We broke our lease and moved out

0:11:21.160 --> 0:11:26.800
<v STORY A>a month later. I'm not sure what exactly was in

0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:31.680
<v STORY A>that house, but I am extremely thankful that we got out.

0:11:32.880 --> 0:11:36.880
<v STORY A>Six days after we moved out, a tornado came and

0:11:37.520 --> 0:11:41.960
<v STORY A>unfortunately destroyed a lot of Rowlett. My husband and I

0:11:42.040 --> 0:11:46.960
<v STORY A>decided that we wanted to see if our neighbors were safe,

0:11:47.440 --> 0:11:50.280
<v STORY A>see our old house, and we were curious about the

0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:55.960
<v STORY A>damage and the destruction. When we drove down our old street,

0:11:56.800 --> 0:12:04.000
<v STORY A>we noticed that our daughter's room was completely gone. It

0:12:04.160 --> 0:12:08.960
<v STORY A>just was a very dark, dark house and once we

0:12:09.120 --> 0:12:13.400
<v STORY A>moved and we left that house, a huge weight lifted.

0:12:14.440 --> 0:12:20.240
<v STORY A>It felt much lighter, sunnier, and life continued on as

0:12:20.280 --> 0:12:20.760
<v STORY A>it should be.

0:12:41.120 --> 0:12:44.240
<v Therésa>So apparently we've got some kind of Ecto malware and

0:12:44.480 --> 0:12:50.720
<v Therésa>all hell is breaking loose, Right, not literally but maybe

0:12:50.720 --> 0:12:54.120
<v Therésa>literally who knows anymore. IT is on their way, but

0:12:54.679 --> 0:12:58.160
<v Therésa>we're glitching. Oh my god, this is so annoying. We're

0:12:58.200 --> 0:12:59.839
<v Therésa>glitching until they get here.

0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:04.080
<v Glitch>You've been preapproved for a new line of credit. Enjoy

0:13:04.160 --> 0:13:07.240
<v Glitch>flexible rewards tailored to your after lifestyle needs.

0:13:07.280 --> 0:13:13.800
<v Therésa>Shut up, gross. Len? There's a good of slime seeping

0:13:13.800 --> 0:13:14.800
<v Therésa>through the ceiling in here.

0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:17.520
<v Len>(MUMBLES)

0:13:18.440 --> 0:13:23.719
<v Therésa>Well call IT again. Oh god, what now? My DMs

0:13:24.120 --> 0:13:31.760
<v Therésa>are blowing up. No, no, oh, this this is too far.

0:13:33.040 --> 0:13:36.480
<v Therésa>Every single one of my posts has been changed to

0:13:37.320 --> 0:13:49.520
<v Therésa>the twenty four hour RayBan Anniversary sales scam.

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:53.839
<v STORY B>I started hearing some banging. Sounded like baseball bats and

0:13:53.920 --> 0:13:58.600
<v STORY B>like hammers and just smashing things. So I'm a little

0:13:58.600 --> 0:14:01.800
<v STORY B>freaked out, like, Okay, what if it's somebody who's just gonna

0:14:02.280 --> 0:14:04.360
<v STORY B>kill me or something. What if they're trying to break

0:14:04.360 --> 0:14:08.360
<v STORY B>through the wall? Hi, I'm Kayla, And this is the

0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:10.680
<v STORY B>story of when a ghost was doing construction in the

0:14:10.720 --> 0:14:17.800
<v STORY B>next room. I am an art student, so I spend

0:14:17.800 --> 0:14:21.120
<v STORY B>a lot of time in the studios. One of the

0:14:21.080 --> 0:14:27.400
<v STORY B>studios is in a really traditional Victorian ish style building,

0:14:27.800 --> 0:14:30.560
<v STORY B>but it was one of the more haunted buildings on campus.

0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:35.920
<v STORY B>It was Friday, and campus is usually dead on Friday,

0:14:36.480 --> 0:14:39.400
<v STORY B>so it wouldn't be like anyone else would be there.

0:14:40.160 --> 0:14:42.560
<v STORY B>And I've been there a few times at night and

0:14:42.640 --> 0:14:48.920
<v STORY B>nothing's happened. But this was different. It is pretty late

0:14:48.920 --> 0:14:55.440
<v STORY B>at night, maybe like ten o'clock. I am finishing a

0:14:55.480 --> 0:15:00.920
<v STORY B>painting in the studio when I started hearing some banging.

0:15:02.080 --> 0:15:06.440
<v STORY B>Earlier that day they had been doing some either renovations

0:15:06.560 --> 0:15:09.160
<v STORY B>or some sort of work in the part of the

0:15:09.160 --> 0:15:14.400
<v STORY B>building that's like next door. But like, it's ten o'clock

0:15:14.440 --> 0:15:17.680
<v STORY B>at night. Everyone should be home by now. It's not

0:15:17.800 --> 0:15:20.960
<v STORY B>business hours. They're not going to be doing construction that hour.

0:15:21.920 --> 0:15:26.880
<v STORY B>Why is there banging? So I'm nervous because I knew

0:15:26.880 --> 0:15:29.960
<v STORY B>no one else was over there. It kind of sounded

0:15:30.000 --> 0:15:33.280
<v STORY B>like a hammer, but like much more aggressive than you

0:15:33.320 --> 0:15:38.720
<v STORY B>would hammer. In the nail normally. It's the type of

0:15:38.760 --> 0:15:41.920
<v STORY B>noise you'd hear in like a rage room. A rage

0:15:42.000 --> 0:15:46.040
<v STORY B>room is essentially this room that you can go into

0:15:46.200 --> 0:15:48.520
<v STORY B>with a bunch of things that either people donate or

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:52.440
<v STORY B>or for cheap that you just break. You get to

0:15:52.480 --> 0:15:56.720
<v STORY B>go around with baseball bats and like hammers and just

0:15:56.960 --> 0:16:00.960
<v STORY B>smash things to let out some rage. That's about the

0:16:01.320 --> 0:16:04.320
<v STORY B>digression whole, and it was starting to sound like it

0:16:04.360 --> 0:16:07.600
<v STORY B>was in the same room. So I'm freaking out. I

0:16:07.680 --> 0:16:11.200
<v STORY B>call my roommate, hoping that she picks up.

0:16:14.240 --> 0:16:18.840
<v STORY B>I'm Rose Kayla's roommate. I could immediately tell that something

0:16:18.920 --> 0:16:23.240
<v STORY B>was up. Usually we just text. I mean, she texted

0:16:23.240 --> 0:16:25.600
<v STORY B>me a few hours before to say that she was

0:16:25.880 --> 0:16:30.040
<v STORY B>staying late in the studio because she does that, so

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.320
<v STORY B>it wasn't anything unusual for her to be there that late,

0:16:34.640 --> 0:16:37.560
<v STORY B>but her calling me when she was there is definitely weird.

0:16:38.640 --> 0:16:40.040
<v STORY B>She sounded a little scared.

0:16:40.840 --> 0:16:44.640
<v STORY B>I said, there's some noise happening right now. Can you

0:16:44.800 --> 0:16:47.120
<v STORY B>come down here and help me clean up and walk

0:16:47.160 --> 0:16:49.840
<v STORY B>back with me? She's still a little confused.

0:16:50.600 --> 0:16:53.480
<v STORY B>She put her phone on speaker and was like, can

0:16:53.520 --> 0:16:54.040
<v STORY B>you hear this?

0:16:54.720 --> 0:16:58.400
<v STORY B>She says no, but I'll be there soon, because she

0:16:58.520 --> 0:17:00.000
<v STORY B>was like going out the door when we hung up.

0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.480
<v STORY B>I did not want to go there. It kind of

0:17:09.480 --> 0:17:12.840
<v STORY B>freaks me out in there honestly. They're old buildings, and

0:17:13.240 --> 0:17:16.760
<v STORY B>the sink in the painting studio, for whatever reason, it

0:17:16.800 --> 0:17:21.040
<v STORY B>never turns off, so it's always dripping constantly. It's just

0:17:21.160 --> 0:17:25.119
<v STORY B>faintly in the background and you can always hear it.

0:17:25.240 --> 0:17:29.080
<v STORY B>But she was freaked out, so I went to meet her.

0:17:33.760 --> 0:17:37.400
<v STORY B>While she's on her way over, banging is still happening,

0:17:37.920 --> 0:17:42.600
<v STORY B>and I'm trying to ignore it, but it's gotten consistent.

0:17:45.359 --> 0:17:49.160
<v STORY B>Painting calms me down, so my instinct is let's keep painting.

0:17:49.480 --> 0:17:53.080
<v STORY B>But it's not like I'm making any progress because it's

0:17:53.119 --> 0:17:54.520
<v STORY B>still jump scaring me.

0:18:00.280 --> 0:18:04.119
<v STORY B>It's about the fifteen minute walk to get to the

0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:07.520
<v STORY B>art buildings, but it might have been a bit faster.

0:18:07.840 --> 0:18:10.800
<v STORY B>It's a bit of a walk, but if she's speed walking,

0:18:10.880 --> 0:18:12.520
<v STORY B>it can be down in about ten minutes.

0:18:14.040 --> 0:18:16.800
<v STORY B>I get there and the door to a painting studio

0:18:16.880 --> 0:18:19.560
<v STORY B>has one of those like electronic swipe systems, but it

0:18:19.560 --> 0:18:20.359
<v STORY B>doesn't really work.

0:18:21.800 --> 0:18:25.240
<v STORY B>She knocks on the doors and scares me, like no

0:18:25.359 --> 0:18:28.840
<v STORY B>man's business. Cause it still happening in the other room, But

0:18:29.080 --> 0:18:34.919
<v STORY B>now they're staying on the door. I go to the door.

0:18:35.520 --> 0:18:38.840
<v STORY B>There are little windows. I peek out. My roommate's out there.

0:18:39.080 --> 0:18:41.639
<v STORY B>I just lurked outside the door ominously waiting for her

0:18:41.680 --> 0:18:42.199
<v STORY B>to let me in.

0:18:42.680 --> 0:18:46.480
<v STORY B>As soon as I open the door, the banging completely stops,

0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:51.280
<v STORY B>as if it was never happening. I'm visibly nervous. She

0:18:51.359 --> 0:18:53.639
<v STORY B>can see this, so she probably thought it was a

0:18:53.680 --> 0:18:57.119
<v STORY B>little sleep deprived and like a little crazy as to like,

0:18:57.480 --> 0:19:00.800
<v STORY B>so why am I here again? I said, but there

0:19:01.320 --> 0:19:05.159
<v STORY B>was a bunch of noise. It's done now, but I

0:19:05.240 --> 0:19:07.200
<v STORY B>want to leave. Can you help me clean up?

0:19:07.920 --> 0:19:14.920
<v STORY B>And she looked very scared. She looked like she'd seen

0:19:14.920 --> 0:19:15.399
<v STORY B>a ghost.

0:19:16.080 --> 0:19:20.080
<v STORY B>We cleaned up as fast as we possibly could. With

0:19:20.280 --> 0:19:24.960
<v STORY B>two people, it takes about two minutes. It was probably

0:19:24.960 --> 0:19:26.880
<v STORY B>close to five minutes for us to get out there.

0:19:27.640 --> 0:19:30.120
<v STORY B>She shuts off all the nights, and as soon as

0:19:30.119 --> 0:19:34.360
<v STORY B>the door closed, she let out this sigh because obviously

0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:37.760
<v STORY B>she had been freaked out being in there. I think

0:19:37.920 --> 0:19:41.600
<v STORY B>me being there definitely reassured her, but she wasn't actually calming

0:19:41.640 --> 0:19:43.280
<v STORY B>down until we were out of the building.

0:19:44.000 --> 0:19:47.000
<v STORY B>Then we just started our treck home. We didn't talk

0:19:47.000 --> 0:19:48.320
<v STORY B>about it much right away.

0:19:49.200 --> 0:19:51.840
<v STORY B>For the most part, she wasn't talking about what had

0:19:51.880 --> 0:19:54.280
<v STORY B>happened there. She was talking a lot, but it didn't

0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:57.600
<v STORY B>have anything to do with noises in the painting studio.

0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.440
<v STORY B>I think it was her trying to distract herself.

0:20:02.880 --> 0:20:06.360
<v STORY B>I didn't hear about any vandalism or damage that happened.

0:20:07.320 --> 0:20:09.640
<v STORY B>I feel like that would have been pretty well known

0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:11.920
<v STORY B>within the art students. It would have been like somebody

0:20:12.000 --> 0:20:16.000
<v STORY B>vandalized the work in the gallery something like that. I'm

0:20:16.119 --> 0:20:20.359
<v STORY B>ninety eight percent sure that it wasn't somebod else, but

0:20:20.440 --> 0:20:22.760
<v STORY B>that also makes me ninety eight percent sure that it

0:20:22.800 --> 0:20:23.480
<v STORY B>was a ghost.

0:20:24.480 --> 0:20:26.920
<v STORY B>We do know of a ghost that lives there. It's

0:20:26.960 --> 0:20:31.520
<v STORY B>the ghost of the original first engineer. He's the guy

0:20:31.560 --> 0:20:34.280
<v STORY B>that worked for the family that owned the estate. He's

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:36.800
<v STORY B>the one that designed the building and the boiler that

0:20:36.920 --> 0:20:40.359
<v STORY B>used to be there. Because of hasty construction, the boiler

0:20:40.480 --> 0:20:41.359
<v STORY B>ended up blowing up.

0:20:42.280 --> 0:20:44.480
<v STORY B>He tragically died there.

0:20:44.400 --> 0:20:45.919
<v STORY B>So his ghost haunts the place.

0:20:46.000 --> 0:20:49.760
<v STORY B>Now that's where you're gonna find him. Yeah, it was

0:20:49.760 --> 0:20:54.200
<v STORY B>probably him. I still have class in there, so I'm

0:20:54.280 --> 0:20:56.560
<v STORY B>back there a lot. I just don't really go in

0:20:56.600 --> 0:20:57.560
<v STORY B>at night anymore.

0:21:10.560 --> 0:21:13.520
<v Therésa>Well, IT finally showed up and took care of things. They're

0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:17.080
<v Therésa>installing a firewall, which is a lot more literal here.

0:21:17.119 --> 0:21:20.399
<v Therésa>But I will not rest until I find whoever did this,

0:21:20.720 --> 0:21:24.159
<v Therésa>and when I do, I will personally see to it

0:21:24.200 --> 0:21:27.119
<v Therésa>that you go straight to hell and not the fun,

0:21:27.600 --> 0:21:30.479
<v Therésa>sexy part of hell where it's hot sinners and bottle

0:21:30.560 --> 0:21:33.960
