WEBVTT 1 00:00:08.960 --> 00:00:13.919 He was cold Cold. That was the name. He was cold on. 2 00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:28.000 What's going on up there? Could be the most important event in history. 3 00:00:31.079 --> 00:00:40.719 Now, I haven't become the destroyer of worlds, I said. I hope 4 00:00:40.759 --> 00:01:03.799 this is close to hell. I'll never again m Hello and welcome to the 5 00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:07.319 Tales from the Dark podcast. I'm your host, Bob. Here's my co 6 00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.680 host, Brittany. Hey guys, what's up. Brittany? How are you 7 00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:14.439 doing? I'm doing good. How are you? I'm doing well? Elephant 8 00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:15.560 in the room real fast. I know there's a bit of an echo. 9 00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:21.920 We changed studios. We didn't just change studios, we changed homes. Yes, 10 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:23.760 we did so. We moved about six and a half hours away. 11 00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:26.599 Yeah, depending on the day, it could be upwards to seven hours away. 12 00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:30.480 But yeah, so this will be a very short episode today it's Friday 13 00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:32.920 the thirteenth. But like I said, we don't have our new studio set 14 00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:36.719 up, our soundproofing stot up. I know this isn't the same uh quality 15 00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:40.840 you're used to, Yes, the same audio excellence you've come to expect with 16 00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:44.959 Tales from the Dark, but it should just be for this episode. Yes, 17 00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:49.079 And also I'd also want to add that we did announce this earlier for 18 00:01:51.000 --> 00:01:53.200 the poll that we actually move. So if you guys aren't in the Facebook 19 00:01:53.200 --> 00:01:57.319 group, make sure you go join the Facebook group. If not, you're 20 00:01:57.319 --> 00:01:59.359 missing out, and there's been a lot of people joining as of late. 21 00:01:59.439 --> 00:02:00.799 So if you are to the show, you're new to the podcast or new 22 00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:05.840 to the group, thank you. But with that being said, miss Brittany, 23 00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:08.439 it is Friday the thirteenth. It is so. I think it was 24 00:02:08.479 --> 00:02:13.159 two years ago we dove into the history of Friday the thirteenth, the pagan 25 00:02:13.240 --> 00:02:15.520 side of the holiday, the all Christian side, the Christian side, some 26 00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.240 of the night's templar stuff, if I remember correctly. Then last year we 27 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:23.199 did more of a horror story style episode, if I think, that's probably 28 00:02:23.199 --> 00:02:25.599 about the best way I could put it. Yeah, us along with our 29 00:02:25.639 --> 00:02:29.759 own personal stories. Yeah, Friday the thirteenth has been one of those that 30 00:02:29.879 --> 00:02:32.080 see you being from Appalachia, I was shocked you weren't, like, yep, 31 00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:36.560 we bore up the windows on this day. That's it. Well, 32 00:02:36.599 --> 00:02:40.840 I actually found something that is very interesting because I don't think you put two 33 00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:45.439 to two and two together when you read this. So well, well we'll 34 00:02:45.439 --> 00:02:46.719 get we'll cross that bridge. When we get there. Yeah, the last 35 00:02:46.719 --> 00:02:50.280 thing I wanted to announce real fast. Make sure you guys get your tickets 36 00:02:50.280 --> 00:02:54.319 for next Saturday, the twenty first, correct the Tennessee Haunts and Legends Expo. 37 00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:58.400 We will both be there, along with the rest of the Phantom Farm 38 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:01.360 crew. We're bringing all of them. Fortunately, I tried. I tried 39 00:03:01.360 --> 00:03:04.680 to leave Tyler at home. They said we had to bring him. It's 40 00:03:04.919 --> 00:03:07.879 ultimately it's Eric's fault from the Unseen Paranormal podcast. I'm being honest, Eric, 41 00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:12.560 we blame you for that. So I'm very excited. I'm nervous. 42 00:03:12.599 --> 00:03:15.199 It's our first little expo. We're doing a showing a Phantom Farm. Then 43 00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:17.479 we'll have a little crew uh like discussion. Afterwards. We're gonna be there 44 00:03:17.479 --> 00:03:21.280 selling merchandise. It's gonna be a fun day to to kind of meet people. 45 00:03:21.360 --> 00:03:23.520 But as you guys know, I don't I don't do the whole people 46 00:03:23.680 --> 00:03:28.400 things. Well, you'll see how this goes. Give me a cave, 47 00:03:28.439 --> 00:03:30.080 give me a mountain. That's where me and Britain you're comfortable when there's people 48 00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:34.560 and they, you know, have expectations like I exist. That's where we're 49 00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:38.039 pushing it to guys. Yeah, but again, with that being said, 50 00:03:38.039 --> 00:03:38.960 I just want to kind of give everyone a little bit of housekeeping. You 51 00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:42.800 guys know what's going on. I know that this sounds a little bit weird, 52 00:03:42.960 --> 00:03:46.680 but it will get better. Just give us a little bit more time. 53 00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:47.800 Yeah, So, why don't you get to start with some of the 54 00:03:47.800 --> 00:03:53.840 superstitions, because again, we've covered the history. I was kind of taken 55 00:03:53.919 --> 00:03:58.080 aback at the amount of superstitions surrounding this holiday. Yeah, and especially the 56 00:03:58.080 --> 00:04:01.520 first one I'm about to cover. So the first one is a doomed birthday. 57 00:04:02.199 --> 00:04:08.599 A child born on Friday the thirteenth will be unlucky for life. If 58 00:04:08.639 --> 00:04:12.360 a child's name has thirteen letters, the child will have the devil's luck. 59 00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:16.000 According to the legend. I decided to count on my fingers on the child. 60 00:04:16.279 --> 00:04:19.759 Yeah, Brittany has thirteen letters her name. You're this is all coming 61 00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:25.199 together makes sense? Okay for those who people don't really don't know, But 62 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:30.000 my birthday's on the thirteenth. What's bears? What's his middle name? Because 63 00:04:30.040 --> 00:04:34.439 that's Sebastian. Your chihuaha definitely also has the devil's make around it. I 64 00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:39.600 don't even know what his middle name is. Okay, well it's the devil 65 00:04:40.240 --> 00:04:45.120 but perfect. But yeah, that's that's weird. My my mother might have 66 00:04:45.160 --> 00:04:48.800 been a little well esoteric with that one. There, don't cut that hair. 67 00:04:49.120 --> 00:04:53.160 If you cut your hair on Friday the thirteenth, someone in your family 68 00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:56.199 will die. I've actually heard this one before. See, I always heard 69 00:04:56.199 --> 00:04:59.800 it on my birthday. Don't get a haircut on your birthday because it means 70 00:04:59.879 --> 00:05:03.920 you won't live to see the next one. Ah, but I feel like 71 00:05:03.959 --> 00:05:10.240 that's the one version I heard, probably, But Friday the thirteenth fits in 72 00:05:10.319 --> 00:05:15.720 anywhere. But where the here's hearses. If a funeral procession passes you on 73 00:05:15.759 --> 00:05:19.399 Friday the thirteenth, you will be the next to die. Okay, well 74 00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:23.920 that's just bad luck. Let's be honest. Yeah, so what do you 75 00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:26.680 I don't believe in that one at all. No, what are you supposed 76 00:05:26.680 --> 00:05:29.560 to do? Call the little funeral parlor? Hey, what route you take 77 00:05:29.600 --> 00:05:32.720 in today? Let me know if anyone died, and if so, I'm 78 00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:36.240 staying at home, you know, just not come by this address. See, 79 00:05:36.279 --> 00:05:39.839 I would be that, I would be a jerk. I would definitely 80 00:05:40.519 --> 00:05:43.959 grint a hearse that day and just drive by everyone. I knew his house 81 00:05:44.120 --> 00:05:47.680 every street. I'd honk the horn ghostly, I'd go reverse cas Tyler's house 82 00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:51.639 under Speaking of Tyler and Nathan, we have to discuss this real quick. 83 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:57.240 Oh my god, we do. So I made the mistake of allowing them 84 00:05:57.279 --> 00:05:59.920 to go back on the news, and again I act like I actually have 85 00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:02.759 control over this. No, Tyler and Nathan, well, we were all 86 00:06:02.759 --> 00:06:09.319 invited to go back because back in March we did a media tour thing for 87 00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:13.519 the local news and they reached out to Brittany on like Tuesday. So for 88 00:06:13.639 --> 00:06:15.759 first off, I felt really good as a content creator because I'm like, 89 00:06:15.800 --> 00:06:19.600 Okay, if the news is this last minute, I no longer feel bad 90 00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:25.000 exactly. But they reached out to Brittany. We couldn't make it because I 91 00:06:25.600 --> 00:06:27.800 surprised Brittany. Last night I got on the Harley. I said, hey, 92 00:06:27.839 --> 00:06:30.120 I got a work late. I'm sorry, I want on my phone. 93 00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:32.920 I rode like seven and a half eight hours down here, because I 94 00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:39.079 say six and a half that's what it is minimum perfect routes. Last night, 95 00:06:39.079 --> 00:06:42.399 it's like last all I take you around Indianapolis. It's like, okay, 96 00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:46.319 great. I didn't want to really ride the Harley through Indianapolis anyway. 97 00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:49.279 It's just not great around rush hour. I end up getting an hour plus 98 00:06:49.279 --> 00:06:51.639 of standstill traffic on the bike. I'm like, if this is going to 99 00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:56.759 overheat, I'm not to call Britain, like, hey, I kind of 100 00:06:57.439 --> 00:07:03.240 worked in Indiana. I'm sorry I can't come see you for for all those 101 00:07:03.360 --> 00:07:08.560 asking, We're not going to say where we moved right now, but I 102 00:07:08.600 --> 00:07:12.199 will say it is not Kentucky. We did not move to eastern Kentucky. 103 00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:15.560 But that is in the future yet it is, and it's not for lack 104 00:07:15.600 --> 00:07:18.319 of trying. But yeah, we're gonna do a whole episode we kind of 105 00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:24.120 unveil where we live because when you're not going to believe the amount of synchronousy 106 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:27.240 surrounding our new house. Yeah, and I just found out tonight. Actually 107 00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.360 I held it back because so I'm still living in Ohio. Brittany's at the 108 00:07:30.399 --> 00:07:33.199 new house temporarily because of work, and I've been my job ten years, 109 00:07:33.199 --> 00:07:36.399 so it's a lot to pass on over to the next person. Yeah. 110 00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:40.839 So Brittany's down here and I'm doing the research on the house and I'm finding 111 00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:44.519 these things. I'm like, I have to tell her. I can't tell 112 00:07:44.519 --> 00:07:46.720 her because she's not gonna want to be there by herself. Yeah, it 113 00:07:46.759 --> 00:07:49.000 is. It is that kind. I don't want to say it's groundbreaking, 114 00:07:49.040 --> 00:07:54.759 but it is. It's pretty eerie stuff. So just look forward to that 115 00:07:54.800 --> 00:07:57.560 episode. It'll be in the next month or so because I'm almost out of 116 00:07:57.560 --> 00:08:01.879 Ohio, so please continue supers. Okay, So the next superstition is don't 117 00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:05.920 make that bed. According to legend, you should never change your bed sheets 118 00:08:05.920 --> 00:08:11.279 on Friday the thirteenth or you will have bad dreams. I have bad dreams 119 00:08:11.480 --> 00:08:16.959 every day. Yeah, I think this is the excuse you've been looking for 120 00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:20.879 to not make the bed anymore. Oh babe, I figured it out. 121 00:08:20.959 --> 00:08:24.120 I'm sorry. They have something for every single day, like Sundays you're not 122 00:08:24.120 --> 00:08:26.240 supposed to make your bed either. You're not supposed to do anything any work. 123 00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:31.480 And then now they're just adding days in there of just excuses not to 124 00:08:31.480 --> 00:08:33.879 do stuff. This was definitely written by a husband who's like, I'm just 125 00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:37.240 sick of this. I'm sick of every day she's on me about this bed. 126 00:08:37.639 --> 00:08:41.960 Honey, I have nightmare. I have night terrors. Blame the bed 127 00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:46.679 sheets. The last one I have is Party of thirteen on Friday the thirteenth 128 00:08:46.679 --> 00:08:50.639 and any other and any other day. If thirteen people dine together, one 129 00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:54.039 will die within the year. So let me let me back this up. 130 00:08:54.080 --> 00:08:58.080 So this may be I'm going to present this as if it's one hundred percent 131 00:08:58.159 --> 00:09:01.639 factual, but it's probably like missing something. So Mark Twain got invited to 132 00:09:01.679 --> 00:09:05.879 a party and it was a Friday, I think it was a Friday of 133 00:09:05.879 --> 00:09:07.840 the thirteenth party. He's like, I don't really want to go. It's 134 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:11.399 kind of whatever. He ends up getting goaded into it in some way, 135 00:09:11.399 --> 00:09:16.600 shape or form. So there's spooky stuff happening in the house right after I 136 00:09:16.639 --> 00:09:20.000 acknowledge it. I should not have done that. No, I'm cleanse run 137 00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:22.679 after this episode now, thanks. Yeah. So Mark Twin gets invited to 138 00:09:22.679 --> 00:09:24.480 this party and he's like, man, I don't want to go. It's 139 00:09:24.600 --> 00:09:28.480 unlucky. It's something, you know. I'm speaking for Mark Twain, which 140 00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:33.279 I'm able to do because I live close to Mark Twain National Forest, so 141 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:39.559 that's I'm the guy. Anyway, it gets interesting because he gets there and 142 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:43.000 he goes, yeah, they only had food for twelve people. He didn't 143 00:09:43.000 --> 00:09:45.879 want to go in the first place. He goes there that was the worst 144 00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:48.799 thing that happened was they only had food for twelve and he didn't get to 145 00:09:48.799 --> 00:09:52.279 eat. I mean I would, I'd be throwing a fit. Someone else 146 00:09:52.320 --> 00:09:56.000 would have to not eat. It's not me, I would open up with 147 00:09:56.159 --> 00:10:01.240 I am literally genius, Mark Twain, You're going to fe I'm just start 148 00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:05.600 grabbing stuff off plates like this looks good, This looks is mine. Yeah. 149 00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:07.919 Thanks. I'm not a big fan of the green beans today, but 150 00:10:07.000 --> 00:10:11.639 that double chicken. All right, So let's talk some some Friday the thirteenth 151 00:10:11.720 --> 00:10:13.720 horror stories. I know you've got a few, kind of go back and 152 00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:16.799 forth. Your mine come from Reddit, so kind of take it with a 153 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:22.720 grain of salt because it's Reddit. But it's kind of interesting, all right. 154 00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:26.200 So you got The first one I've got is called the Facebook Stalker. 155 00:10:26.799 --> 00:10:31.039 I went to a bar about twenty minutes from my apartment in Brooklyn, New 156 00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:33.679 York. Brittany, who you not live in Brooklyn, New York. This 157 00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:37.360 is already a fake story. I know it's fake, not just kidding. 158 00:10:37.799 --> 00:10:41.360 Because of construction, and because I didn't know the way home. I'd lived 159 00:10:41.360 --> 00:10:46.279 there for only a month, it took some time to get home. When 160 00:10:46.279 --> 00:10:48.399 I got there, I noticed I had a Facebook message from someone said I 161 00:10:48.480 --> 00:10:54.279 didn't know, saying nice apartment, Can I come in? I looked outside 162 00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:58.399 and there was a guy who had followed me home. I have no idea 163 00:10:58.440 --> 00:11:03.480 how he got my Facebook details. I bolted the door and blocked him. 164 00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:07.159 That's that's the most scary thing about like big cities for me. Oh yeah, 165 00:11:07.480 --> 00:11:13.200 And I had this thought when we were not intoxicated at all on Bourbon 166 00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:18.639 Street, we wouldn't do that. We're responsible, We definitely don't get shit 167 00:11:18.720 --> 00:11:20.879 faced. That's not what we do. Let's just be honest. No, 168 00:11:22.039 --> 00:11:24.679 But we were on Bourbon Street and as we were walking towards the main hub 169 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:26.440 where your ubers pick you up. So, if you've never been to New 170 00:11:26.519 --> 00:11:31.639 Orleans, Bourbon Street is this notorious street where you can drink. There's no 171 00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:33.399 cars. Yeah, there's no cars. It's all foot traffic. And there's 172 00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:37.240 a bar every twenty thirty feet, if not less than that. Yeah, 173 00:11:37.559 --> 00:11:41.519 most of the bars are like neck like, literally they share doors with one 174 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:45.759 another. Well, even the police, like they have mounted police officers on 175 00:11:46.200 --> 00:11:50.039 horses. So that should tell you the nonsense that happens on Bourbon Street. 176 00:11:50.159 --> 00:11:54.679 But as I was walking up. I remember looking up and seeing like all 177 00:11:54.720 --> 00:11:58.039 these little subgroups of people. Then they're like one person walking by themselves, 178 00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:01.600 and I'm like, man, this is a stalker's paradise because like everyone's semi 179 00:12:01.679 --> 00:12:05.679 intoxicated or intoxicated, and if they're not drinking, they're soaking in New Orleans, 180 00:12:05.720 --> 00:12:09.679 they're soaking in Bourbon Treat. The lights. It's very paying attention to 181 00:12:09.720 --> 00:12:13.240 what's happening around them. Yes, and it's in Bourbon Street, especially New 182 00:12:13.320 --> 00:12:15.399 Orleans as a whole. It is the way of Bourbon Treat. Specifically, 183 00:12:15.399 --> 00:12:18.799 it's very intoxicating just being there because there's so much to see. There's so 184 00:12:18.840 --> 00:12:24.480 many people that there's a very unique sensory overload because of how many flashing lights. 185 00:12:24.480 --> 00:12:26.440 It's like Vegas almost, yeah, And I kept thinking like, man, 186 00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:30.279 this is this is Like I'm surprised there aren't more of these kind of 187 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:35.519 stalker horror stories out of New Orleans specifically, just because of like like you 188 00:12:35.559 --> 00:12:37.840 said, it's such sensory overload. You're not really paying attention to you. 189 00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:41.519 You're making sure you're not walking into the guy in front of you. That's 190 00:12:41.559 --> 00:12:43.559 it, and that's really it. And then you're like well, were can 191 00:12:43.600 --> 00:12:46.840 I get my next drink? And that's really New Orleans in a nutshell. 192 00:12:46.120 --> 00:12:50.039 But I do love the culture of New Orleans, and I definitely think there's 193 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:52.240 a lot of people that we met even just passing by, Yeah, that 194 00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:56.720 they saw something like that and was able to identify something like that they would 195 00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:58.360 do something about it. Well, I've been looking for a way to segue 196 00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:03.559 in kind of shout us out, what is the esoteric shop that we is 197 00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:07.600 it Madam House of Hoodoo, And it's Madam the woman that they kind of 198 00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:11.840 modeled the shop around. But it is a beautiful, like hands on, 199 00:13:11.919 --> 00:13:18.799 my favorite magic place's favorite we've been in. Mount Shasta's pretty cool though when 200 00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:24.360 it comes to like how big a story is Mount Shasta all the way, 201 00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.919 all the way, But the authenticity of that one is unbeatable from any of 202 00:13:28.960 --> 00:13:33.720 the ones I went to. Most of them in New Orleans, we went 203 00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:35.360 almost every single one. Well, basically anytime we hit the road, we 204 00:13:37.000 --> 00:13:39.799 make an effort to stop and check these places out. Well, I'm just 205 00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:43.399 saying in New Orleans specifically, that's my favorite one, and then across country, 206 00:13:43.440 --> 00:13:46.039 I haven't found one that beats it. Yeah, No, I agree, 207 00:13:46.320 --> 00:13:48.720 Okay, so we're just gonna do a few more. Like so, 208 00:13:48.759 --> 00:13:50.080 this is gonna be a shorter episode, but we wanted to get something out 209 00:13:50.120 --> 00:13:52.679 to you guys, just to kind of explain our absence of big It's not 210 00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:58.679 like saying it's pooky and not. Everyone's in the Facebook group for whatever reasons 211 00:13:58.840 --> 00:14:03.320 we got. We got Dad Terry to get Facebook and get in the group. 212 00:14:03.720 --> 00:14:07.399 So just be honest here, you guys. You step it up. 213 00:14:07.480 --> 00:14:09.559 Yeah, so, okay, this one comes from red I'm actually gonna do 214 00:14:09.679 --> 00:14:11.960 two from Reddit here, because like, this one's it's interesting but it's kind 215 00:14:11.960 --> 00:14:15.600 of explainable, and the other one's like, oh wait, what what did 216 00:14:15.600 --> 00:14:18.480 you say? So this one's spookiest thing that ever happened to me on a 217 00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.840 Friday the thirteenth was when I was like eleven. My friend had just moved 218 00:14:22.440 --> 00:14:24.840 moved house and said her new house was haunted. I was a kid who 219 00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:28.919 was super into supernatural and paranormal and fantasy, but by this point I was 220 00:14:28.919 --> 00:14:33.279 already starting to turn skeptic, but I mostly kept that to myself because it 221 00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:39.360 was fun to pretend I still believed Tyler Terry wrote this. It was anyway, 222 00:14:39.559 --> 00:14:43.080 it was a Friday, and for some reason, my friend's whole family 223 00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:45.879 accept her. We're out of the house for a few hours, and she 224 00:14:45.960 --> 00:14:48.960 invited me over to house it with her. I can't remember if I spent 225 00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:50.879 the night. I think I did. We thought it would be fun to 226 00:14:50.879 --> 00:14:54.360 watch one of those ghost hunt shows, and at the part where freaking Derek 227 00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.639 Acora was asking for the ghost to come out, my friend's video player turned 228 00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:05.000 on are rewinding itself. This is a time before that shit was automated and 229 00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:07.039 theirs was old. You had to rewind it yourself by pressing the button on 230 00:15:07.080 --> 00:15:11.480 the controller, and the controller was on top of the video player, so 231 00:15:11.559 --> 00:15:13.879 it wasn't my friend messing with me. Scared the shit out of us. 232 00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:18.120 But other than that, she told me how creepy other creepy things have been 233 00:15:18.120 --> 00:15:22.200 happening, like your sister's hearing someone whispering their name into their ears, and 234 00:15:22.240 --> 00:15:24.960 a closed haanger being thrown across the room from the side of the room where 235 00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:30.120 no one was, and other things like that. I consider myself a skeptic 236 00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:33.120 to till this day, but that still always creeps me out because I was 237 00:15:33.159 --> 00:15:35.960 there. My friend wasn't the kind of person to make stuff up. I 238 00:15:35.960 --> 00:15:39.559 think she was like me, skeptic, but still found it fun to talk 239 00:15:39.559 --> 00:15:45.399 about. I mean, the problem with the old VCR, so I had 240 00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:48.960 one. I can't remember the name of the company. Growing up, I 241 00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:52.240 would get the crap scared out of me because I would sneak down at eleven 242 00:15:52.320 --> 00:16:00.799 years old and watch some nighttime HBO and oh my god, that's all I 243 00:16:00.799 --> 00:16:06.600 can say. That's a Patreon episode. That's a whole that I just unlocked, 244 00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:11.399 a complete childhood trauma. That's a full hour long for Patreon. We 245 00:16:11.480 --> 00:16:15.080 don't talk about that. Keep an eye appealed for this one anyway. So 246 00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:22.159 I was not watching HBO after dark, and this was probably the closest to 247 00:16:22.200 --> 00:16:26.240 a heart attack I ever came ever, because I'm sitting there with the We 248 00:16:26.320 --> 00:16:30.320 had the old like big box TV and the VCRs on top of my dad 249 00:16:30.320 --> 00:16:36.320 would like always tape Cops and just random shows that he never watched these vh 250 00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:40.679 I'm pretty sure we only own like six blank VHS tapes and he just kept 251 00:16:40.879 --> 00:16:45.159 recording over them. And this is before TVO, this is before DVR all 252 00:16:45.159 --> 00:16:53.000 that stuff, and the VCR starts rewinding itself. I thought I'm caught I'm 253 00:16:53.039 --> 00:16:56.440 dead. This is the end of my life. I have to accept that 254 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:02.159 this is how I go out. Oh my god, yes, because again 255 00:17:02.240 --> 00:17:07.039 I was definitely watching not Skinemax without a shadow of a doubt. Here, 256 00:17:07.839 --> 00:17:11.039 just move on from that. Oh my god, No, but I was 257 00:17:11.119 --> 00:17:15.200 confident. My dad like opened the door and just I'm musted, and I'm 258 00:17:15.200 --> 00:17:18.720 like, you know what, I'm just gonna assume the position because I know 259 00:17:18.759 --> 00:17:22.960 what happens next. This is Herbie all over again. But it's gonna be 260 00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:27.799 worse because because there was no talking. You need, everyone needed everything. 261 00:17:29.880 --> 00:17:33.599 Every kid was eleven with HBO. Let's just be every guy's like. You 262 00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:36.559 know, I was there. I get it. Okay. So this one 263 00:17:36.640 --> 00:17:40.119 spookiest thing has ever happened to me is back when I was sixteen and my 264 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:42.599 friend was hanging out playing games. My mom came back, had a little 265 00:17:42.640 --> 00:17:47.519 too much to drink, and went to bed. Whatever seems normal. So 266 00:17:47.599 --> 00:17:49.839 here's why stuff starts getting weird. I got a message from my mom, 267 00:17:49.920 --> 00:17:53.359 a text message, and I said, hurry, something bad is going to 268 00:17:53.440 --> 00:17:57.599 happen. I'm like, huh, weird, whatever, So I put my 269 00:17:57.640 --> 00:18:02.720 phone back down. First off, do you just hate your mom? Is 270 00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:06.960 that's a weird You're just like, she's fine, too much, Chardnay, 271 00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:11.200 it's fine. Whatever. I get another message about two minutes later saying, 272 00:18:11.279 --> 00:18:15.319 hurry, gun under pillow. So this time a red flag appeared. I'm 273 00:18:15.319 --> 00:18:18.200 like, okay, mus go check this out. I went into the room 274 00:18:18.240 --> 00:18:22.599 and looked under the pillow and bam, a gun was locked and loaded. 275 00:18:22.599 --> 00:18:26.359 Well, I'm like, that's weird. Took the gun with me and unloaded 276 00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:32.319 it and took it apart. It's op okay for a se like, that's 277 00:18:32.359 --> 00:18:34.640 a weird thing that your drunk mom just had a loaded gun and you're like, 278 00:18:36.480 --> 00:18:40.319 all right, mom, let me just take it, take it apart. 279 00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:42.279 What else happened that You're like, But he's also stupid, like if 280 00:18:42.640 --> 00:18:45.960 they if someone is in trouble, don't unload it, just keep the safety 281 00:18:47.039 --> 00:18:49.920 on. It's about five minutes later I got another message saying you might have 282 00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:55.119 won the battle, but the war isn't over. Her life is mine tonight. 283 00:18:56.359 --> 00:18:57.759 By this point, I'm just like, what the fuck is happening? 284 00:18:59.200 --> 00:19:06.519 I go, uh, this sounds like he needs therapy because he's accepted a 285 00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:10.240 lot of this just kind of blindly. I don't know. I feel like 286 00:19:10.240 --> 00:19:11.799 you would have too if this was your childhood home. But go ahead there, 287 00:19:12.880 --> 00:19:18.680 So okay, so it continues on, let me ask you what would 288 00:19:18.720 --> 00:19:22.480 you have done in this situation? Like right now before I continue on? 289 00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:27.319 Where was his mom? Exactly? In her room? We wait, didn't 290 00:19:27.319 --> 00:19:30.960 he have to go into her room to get the gun from under the pillow? 291 00:19:30.119 --> 00:19:33.160 Yeah? So did he not see her in there? No, she 292 00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:38.519 was in there. Okay, this doesn't make any sense. What doesn't make 293 00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:42.640 sense about it? He goes in there, doesn't say anything about how what 294 00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:47.960 his mother was doing, what was happening, And he's like, oh, 295 00:19:48.000 --> 00:19:51.400 I got the pistol up, loaded it and I didn't see anything. I 296 00:19:52.440 --> 00:19:55.279 just thought this was fine, it's it's normal. I didn't see anything with 297 00:19:55.359 --> 00:19:56.720 his mom. No, this doesn't make sense at all. Okay, So 298 00:19:56.839 --> 00:20:00.559 anyway, the guns in the polic point, you may have won the battle 299 00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:03.559 with the wars and over her life is mine tonight? By this point, 300 00:20:03.559 --> 00:20:07.039 I'm just like, what the fuck is happening? Go back to my mom's 301 00:20:07.119 --> 00:20:10.839 room and wake her up and asked her why she's being so weird and scary. 302 00:20:11.000 --> 00:20:12.400 She doesn't know what I'm talking about. So I thought, well, 303 00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:15.079 I'll just hide your phone under the bed, and just to be safe, 304 00:20:15.079 --> 00:20:19.000 I'll take it take it the board so she'll have no idea. I'm guessing 305 00:20:19.000 --> 00:20:23.119 it means take the battery out. Yeah, but surely the fuck next, 306 00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:29.000 I get another message saying necklace choking. Hurry I go in there. My 307 00:20:29.000 --> 00:20:33.359 mom has a rosary wrapped around her and the christ being pulled up squeezing it, 308 00:20:33.680 --> 00:20:36.839 and her left hand so hard that she was bleeding. So I woke 309 00:20:36.839 --> 00:20:38.359 her up and tried to explain what happened to her, but she was still 310 00:20:38.400 --> 00:20:41.799 so drunk it didn't make a difference. I was curious about her phone, 311 00:20:41.839 --> 00:20:45.720 so I checked, and lo and behold, it was still under her bed 312 00:20:45.759 --> 00:20:48.720 and not like nothing had happened. Well, I grabbed her phone and tried 313 00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:51.319 to look at the messages, but they weren't there, like none of them 314 00:20:51.319 --> 00:20:53.880 were on her phone. Fast forward the next day. Explaining everything to my 315 00:20:53.920 --> 00:20:57.319 mom and showed her the messages and she starts crying. So the messages that 316 00:20:57.400 --> 00:21:00.519 ended with a my mom thinks it was her firstborn that died, since her 317 00:21:00.559 --> 00:21:04.880 first name is Amethyst. Freaky shit though got plenty of stories for whatever reason. 318 00:21:04.880 --> 00:21:10.960 Paranormal shit loves me I don't trust it. I don't trust that either, 319 00:21:11.000 --> 00:21:14.119 but I do love The next story is literally just we all have skeletons 320 00:21:14.119 --> 00:21:18.519 inside of our bodies. That's his story. Okay, I'm gonna let you 321 00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:19.880 do one more and then we're gonna end this episode. Like I know, 322 00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:25.279 it's shorter, but we had to give you guys something a little spoopy booby. 323 00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:30.359 This one's called the Creepy Caller. I was alone in the house. 324 00:21:30.480 --> 00:21:33.480 An unknown number called me. I could hear the same TV show I was 325 00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:37.400 watching and playing in the background. I kept saying hello, and my voice 326 00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:41.839 would just echo back. I thought it was just one of those broken calls 327 00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:45.920 that you hear when your mike feedback, but hear your mike feedback. But 328 00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:52.079 what happened next creep me out. Right before I put down this call, 329 00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:57.079 I heard a voice whisper goodbye, good night. I stared at the phone, 330 00:21:57.119 --> 00:22:02.920 confused as what as to what had happened? And I said Hello again, 331 00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:07.200 and the static and the echo disappeared. It was all quiet. Then 332 00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:11.640 suddenly Hi. I put down the phone, turned off the TV and ran 333 00:22:11.720 --> 00:22:15.759 to bed. I'm fighting the ghost. I'm shooting everything. I'm putting my 334 00:22:15.799 --> 00:22:22.519 hand through the phone. That's it. You had to throw the whole house 335 00:22:22.559 --> 00:22:25.720 away, Jesus Christ. Well, that being said Miss Britney, this is 336 00:22:25.759 --> 00:22:27.440 our little kickoff Spooky season. We will do something for Halloween. I don't 337 00:22:27.440 --> 00:22:30.200 I don't know what it's going to be yet. It might be a live 338 00:22:30.240 --> 00:22:33.039 stream, might be a video thing, might be a longer show. We're 339 00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:34.759 going to get something put together. Like I said, we're in the middle 340 00:22:34.799 --> 00:22:40.640 of this huge move. I definitely like overestimated my own personal ability to move 341 00:22:40.920 --> 00:22:45.000 that entire house several states away. Yeah, so that was fun. You 342 00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:48.319 definitely underestimated how much of a toll it was going to take too. Well, 343 00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:52.720 the problem is we have turned into little treasure goblins. That is the 344 00:22:52.759 --> 00:22:57.920 major problem. We had like three boxes of just trinkets. We don't talk 345 00:22:57.960 --> 00:23:02.000 about the trinkets. Yeah, you went and bought this giant roll bubble wrap 346 00:23:02.039 --> 00:23:06.319 that was like three meters wide, and there's like none left, and I 347 00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:07.359 didn't understand where all went. And then I'm like, oh, we have 348 00:23:07.440 --> 00:23:11.200 to wrap this up, wrap this up. Oh the alien head tequila that 349 00:23:11.319 --> 00:23:14.720 that's gotta be double wrapped, let's be honest. And then I went and 350 00:23:14.759 --> 00:23:17.799 looked at our books, our boxes that we have left when I got down 351 00:23:17.839 --> 00:23:22.039 here, and I'm like, that's an entire box filled to the of D 352 00:23:22.079 --> 00:23:26.680 and D stuff, and that's our news. That's our newest hobby. We 353 00:23:26.720 --> 00:23:30.400 can't go somewhere like, oh well this might come in handy. We never 354 00:23:30.400 --> 00:23:36.480 know we're gonna need this, uh pineapple can opener could definitely be something spooky 355 00:23:36.519 --> 00:23:38.240 down the line with this thing. Oh my god, and then we just 356 00:23:38.279 --> 00:23:45.519 have to buy your Harry Potter wand your quill set. We have a problem. 357 00:23:45.799 --> 00:23:48.759 Okay, this is what happens. And you give like not like we're 358 00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:52.200 grown up in the sense of like we're adults, but then we also like 359 00:23:52.279 --> 00:23:55.680 had bad childhoods or like, let's make up. We're to make up for 360 00:23:56.039 --> 00:24:00.680 thirty years of bad life trauma and trauma and our trinkets in six months in 361 00:24:00.720 --> 00:24:04.200 trinkets. So with that being said, in spritey last thing, I wanted 362 00:24:04.200 --> 00:24:07.680 to remind everyone Tennessee Haunson Legends next week. I really hope you guys come 363 00:24:07.720 --> 00:24:10.640 out. We want to meet you guys. I know Matthew Bird's going to 364 00:24:10.720 --> 00:24:11.720 be there. We got him out of his hobbit. Yeah, if we 365 00:24:11.759 --> 00:24:15.440 can't, if we can get Matthew to come out. What are you guys 366 00:24:15.440 --> 00:24:17.680 doing? You've got to be there. It's ten bucks. Tickets go to 367 00:24:17.680 --> 00:24:19.200 a great cause. Phantom form will be shown. So look, here's the 368 00:24:19.240 --> 00:24:25.559 way I see it. Phantom farms like four dollars. Probably Tyler's in charge 369 00:24:25.599 --> 00:24:29.480 of that, so I don't actually know how much phantom farm costs. Matthew 370 00:24:29.480 --> 00:24:33.319 birds being there, that's a seven dollars value. You're already making your money 371 00:24:33.319 --> 00:24:34.839 back by buying the ticket's already I mean, Tyler Terry is going to be 372 00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:37.000 there, so that's minus. We wanted to take a dollar off, so 373 00:24:37.039 --> 00:24:40.920 you're basically eating him for free. If we're being hundred percent, well, 374 00:24:40.960 --> 00:24:44.000 Eric's going to be there, that's two bucks. That's Austin's there. Take 375 00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:45.920 off a dollar. We're going. We can do the math, but it's 376 00:24:45.960 --> 00:24:49.720 at least a ten dollars value. The math math. Matthew's going to be 377 00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:52.839 there. We can probably add two more dollars to that, Beau, we 378 00:24:52.880 --> 00:24:56.240 haven't seen him in a while. Very true. So with that being said 379 00:24:56.240 --> 00:24:57.160 to the sprite, unless there anything else that you would like to add, 380 00:24:57.720 --> 00:25:02.279 stay tuned and do some spook stuff for Spoopy season. Yes, stay tuned 381 00:25:02.319 --> 00:25:04.200 one hundred percent. We have something cool in the pipeline. I just haven't 382 00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:07.839 thought of it yet. That's a lie. You have a lot of I 383 00:25:07.880 --> 00:25:11.960 have a ton of things down the pipeline, but I gotta gotta set the 384 00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:15.000 hook. Yeah. So with that being said, oh, one last thing 385 00:25:15.640 --> 00:25:22.160 to all of my middle aged listeners, go on Netflix and watch Rust Valley 386 00:25:22.240 --> 00:25:27.799 Restores Terry's talking to you. This show has its hooks in me so deep. 387 00:25:27.920 --> 00:25:32.559 It's worse than Supernatural and Suits combined. I'm all in. I have 388 00:25:32.599 --> 00:25:34.559 anime arcs about these characters already planned out. I don't know if any of 389 00:25:34.559 --> 00:25:38.519 them are true, but oh my god, am I into this show Sin. 390 00:25:38.559 --> 00:25:41.559 Since me and Brittany been living apart, I have fully embraced his old 391 00:25:41.599 --> 00:25:45.720 man, middle aged Midwestern I'm listening to like the Yelman Brothers. I'm going 392 00:25:45.720 --> 00:25:49.359 to bed at eight thirty. I'm eating the same thing every two days. 393 00:25:49.400 --> 00:25:52.640 Spaghettio's has been my diet for a minute, and it's been fantastic. Right 394 00:25:52.759 --> 00:25:55.839 now, we don't talk about the chef, right, Okay? Well, 395 00:25:56.000 --> 00:26:00.799 first off, Spaghettio's and chefferd different. This shows how far we've every day 396 00:26:00.839 --> 00:26:04.440 we drink a little further away from the ward's vision. With that being said, 397 00:26:04.480 --> 00:26:07.440 this Brittany, I think we're got to add this episode of Friday the 398 00:26:07.480 --> 00:26:11.359 thirteenth. You are never ending, but are always growing. Tails from the 399 00:26:11.480 --> 00:27:14.160 dark include see
