00:00:00.760 --> 00:00:06.519
Welcome to Scary Story Podcast. Today
we have a story filled with darkness and

2
00:00:07.000 --> 00:00:14.919
melancholy. I hope you enjoy it. My name is Edwin and here is

3
00:00:14.960 --> 00:00:22.359
a scary story. My grandfather was
one of the neighbors on his street that

4
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:26.480
people talked about. Kids would not
get near him. Although some of the

5
00:00:26.519 --> 00:00:30.640
older families on the street all knew
him, it could only say good things

6
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:36.560
despite his well condition. For lack
of a better word, he was a

7
00:00:36.640 --> 00:00:40.520
type of guy that would offer to
change your oil or walk over to shovel

8
00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:44.920
your snow early in the morning.
Well that was until his age started catching

9
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:49.200
up to him and he was caught
speaking to himself several times while out in

10
00:00:49.240 --> 00:00:53.119
the yard. My dad got a
few calls about it, and I remember

11
00:00:53.159 --> 00:00:57.320
specifically one night we all had to
go over to his house across the state

12
00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:02.200
to call him down. At least
that's what my dad said, but when

13
00:01:02.240 --> 00:01:04.159
we got there, he was just
playing music out of his old radio in

14
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:08.959
the basement. That was it.
Of course, one am was far too

15
00:01:10.079 --> 00:01:15.120
late for the suburban area where he
lived. Still, nobody called the police

16
00:01:15.120 --> 00:01:18.799
on the old man, and instead
of resorted to calling his known family members,

17
00:01:19.640 --> 00:01:22.599
his neighbors knew my dad and all
of the family, and it was

18
00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:26.000
a time where phone numbers were commonly
shared among the neighbors. I know that's

19
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:34.719
not the case nowadays. His house
was the best thing to ever happen to

20
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:38.040
my sister and I as kids.
It was filled with so many photographs and

21
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:42.359
things that he collected as he traveled. He had a ton of friends and

22
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:47.920
we knew them all. They would
be over at his house all the time,

23
00:01:48.319 --> 00:01:52.920
sitting around the fireplace and talking and
laughing laid into the night. They

24
00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:56.799
had stories, scary ones too,
and they would tell us of a world

25
00:01:56.799 --> 00:02:00.400
that we had, Like they like
to say, it missed by only a

26
00:02:00.439 --> 00:02:06.280
couple of decades, the best years
to ever exist. My dad to talk

27
00:02:06.319 --> 00:02:09.240
about him a lot to our other
family members, talking about how stubborn he

28
00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:13.439
was and how much he refused to
leave his house to come in with them

29
00:02:13.479 --> 00:02:16.599
because he didn't want to leave his
friends behind, although all of his friends

30
00:02:16.639 --> 00:02:23.000
had already left the city. As
all of my grandfather's friends started getting older,

31
00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:27.120
they too moved in with their own
families. The two g's, Greg

32
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:32.199
and George moved first, and then
Harry. Grandpa would spend the evenings talking

33
00:02:32.240 --> 00:02:36.400
with the last one in town for
a couple of years. Peter was his

34
00:02:36.479 --> 00:02:39.000
name. He was the youngest out
of the group, though not by many

35
00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.960
years, but he was the one
that got to spend the most time with

36
00:02:43.000 --> 00:02:46.240
my grandfather. Lately, they were
a couple of old, funny guys coming

37
00:02:46.319 --> 00:02:51.919
up with projects and of ways to
scare the neighbors. I think it was

38
00:02:51.960 --> 00:02:54.120
Peter the one that gave us the
idea to build a tunnel under the fence

39
00:02:54.120 --> 00:02:57.759
to get to my neighbor's apple tree
on the other side of the yard.

40
00:02:58.520 --> 00:03:01.479
My sister and I tried it for
a days before giving up. The thing

41
00:03:01.719 --> 00:03:07.879
just kept collapsing. Those weekends at
my grandfather's house are what I remember the

42
00:03:07.960 --> 00:03:10.680
most of my childhood. It was
much more active then, of course,

43
00:03:10.759 --> 00:03:14.520
but I would still get phone calls
from him when I got to college,

44
00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.759
with his version of advice on girls
and whatnot. But as the years passed

45
00:03:19.800 --> 00:03:23.639
and his friend Peter moved in with
his daughter's family across the state, a

46
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.360
grandfather was the only one left on
Greenfield Street. It was sad to me

47
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:31.759
imagining him by himself with dozens of
bottles of wine that he could not drink

48
00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:37.120
by a fire that he barely had
the energy to start anymore, and with

49
00:03:37.199 --> 00:03:45.319
books that his eyes now strained to
read. It was Christmas nineteen ninety eight,

50
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:49.039
when I had just finished college and
had not started working yet, when

51
00:03:49.080 --> 00:03:51.680
my dad decided it would be a
good idea for me to go spend some

52
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:55.240
time with my grandfather, maybe help
out around the house. Mom and Dad

53
00:03:55.280 --> 00:04:00.800
would make it there on some weekends
with my sister. It actually went I

54
00:04:00.879 --> 00:04:05.520
ended up staying for almost three months. My grandfather was a creature of habit.

55
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.560
He liked doing things in the same
way every single day, and that

56
00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:14.280
included the same radio station at the
same time before the sun came out in

57
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.240
the morning. By this time,
the doctor had explained that due to his

58
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:20.800
age, he was prone to forgetting
things and that we should try to help

59
00:04:20.839 --> 00:04:27.160
with some of the confusion. But
my grandfather didn't forget a thing, not

60
00:04:27.279 --> 00:04:30.800
until the very end. And I
hated those words, though I hated them

61
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:35.040
even more when my dad would repeat
them. That my grandfather needed to be

62
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:40.839
comfortable that he would not survive a
fall to check on him every single morning.

63
00:04:41.839 --> 00:04:45.360
But the man was tough. His
sense of humor only got better,

64
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:49.360
his stories got more interesting, and
his kindness started shining more than ever.

65
00:04:50.279 --> 00:04:54.720
It felt like the doctors were the
ones killing the man with their words,

66
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.959
although I must admit that the time
I spent with him were enough to tell

67
00:04:59.000 --> 00:05:01.079
me that there was more, much
more to the world than we could see.

68
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.360
What he did do, though,
was to share with me some of

69
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:11.319
the strange things that were happening around
the house. He would reassure me that

70
00:05:11.399 --> 00:05:15.800
I shouldn't be scared, although just
that statement alone was enough to send shivers

71
00:05:15.800 --> 00:05:23.720
down my back. You see,
my grandfather had visitors, visitors that I

72
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:30.399
could not see. It was a
Saturday, nine at night, snow had

73
00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:32.800
been falling for several hours, and
if it wasn't for all the cables and

74
00:05:32.839 --> 00:05:36.759
pieces scrambled all over the floor from
the computer I was setting up, it

75
00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:41.319
would have been a calm and eerie
night at the house, perfect for the

76
00:05:41.319 --> 00:05:45.920
fireplace and my grandfather liked to set
up. He would normally be getting ready

77
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:47.600
for bed at this time, and
I had been so focused on getting the

78
00:05:47.600 --> 00:05:51.560
computer to recognize the monitor settings that
the voice I heard from the living room

79
00:05:51.600 --> 00:05:58.040
startled me. My grandfather was laughing, asking a bunch of questions the kind

80
00:05:58.079 --> 00:06:02.519
you ask an old friend how have
you been? How's Mary doing? Did

81
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:08.399
Mark make the team? I put
some of the cables down on the desk

82
00:06:08.480 --> 00:06:13.560
and stared into nothing, listening carefully
to what he was saying. But the

83
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:17.319
more I listened, the more convinced
I got that there was someone else there.

84
00:06:19.040 --> 00:06:23.399
I reached for the doorknob and opened
it. The darn thing would squeak

85
00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.920
like there was no tomorrow every morning, but this time it was quiet.

86
00:06:29.240 --> 00:06:31.879
I got to see the glowing blue
light from the television casting a shadow on

87
00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:36.160
my grandfather just at the end of
the hallway where the living room started,

88
00:06:38.199 --> 00:06:44.000
was waving his hands, excited as
he spoke into the darkness to nobody.

89
00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:47.279
All right, then, Greg,
I'll see you tomorrow, he said,

90
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:51.279
And I could feel the cold breeze
of the front door as he opened it

91
00:06:51.480 --> 00:06:56.480
as he said goodbye one more time
and then shut the door. I took

92
00:06:56.480 --> 00:07:00.560
a few steps back and then went
into my room again, aid for my

93
00:07:00.600 --> 00:07:03.800
grandfather to pass by. As soon
as I heard his door close, I

94
00:07:03.920 --> 00:07:08.160
ran to the living room and opened
up the window curtain, the one that

95
00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:12.199
was at the front of the house
to look out into the driveway, and

96
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.759
I knew someone had been in the
house because of the footsteps and the snow

97
00:07:15.000 --> 00:07:20.480
right outside the porch, they led
straight down the path, clean against the

98
00:07:20.519 --> 00:07:27.000
rest of the untouched, snowed front
yard. I grabbed the coat from the

99
00:07:27.000 --> 00:07:30.279
side of the door and stepped outside. But as I followed those footsteps toward

100
00:07:30.319 --> 00:07:38.000
the millbox and to the snow covered
sidewalk, they ended. I walked down

101
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:41.439
the porch next to those footsteps,
following them carefully. As they reached the

102
00:07:41.480 --> 00:07:46.319
sidewalk. It was as if the
person had just vanished or flown away somewhere

103
00:07:46.399 --> 00:07:51.079
right at that spot. I looked
around, but as I expected, Greenfield

104
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:58.920
Street was dead silent that night,
I stayed up long after I finished up

105
00:07:58.959 --> 00:08:01.720
with the computer setup. Too many
things were going around in my head.

106
00:08:03.879 --> 00:08:07.399
My grandfather, the same man who
had shown me time and time again that

107
00:08:07.439 --> 00:08:11.279
he was more than capable of taking
care of himself for many years to come,

108
00:08:11.199 --> 00:08:18.079
had just thrown a curve ball at
me. The neighbors had mentioned on

109
00:08:18.120 --> 00:08:22.560
occasion that he would talk to himself, but this time I could bet anyone

110
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:28.160
that he indeed was talking with somebody. Greg was his name, his old

111
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.759
friend, but yes, it was
a familiar name to him. I understood

112
00:08:31.759 --> 00:08:37.320
that his mind might be using that
somehow, but still the thought wouldn't leave

113
00:08:37.360 --> 00:08:41.000
my mind. At seven a m. That next morning, I called my

114
00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:46.399
dad to ask about Greg and where
he was living. He said, last

115
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:50.240
he remembered, he was about two
counties over by the state line, living

116
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.200
with his daughter, his son in
law, and his grandson. But after

117
00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:56.000
he explained it to me, he
mentioned that I should not take it too

118
00:08:56.039 --> 00:09:01.519
seriously, that my grandfather was getting
older, and that I came with some

119
00:09:01.600 --> 00:09:05.360
consequences. I started playing with the
cable on the phone as I listened,

120
00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.879
subdenly, hoping that I would pull
too hard and that it would end the

121
00:09:09.919 --> 00:09:15.639
call accidentally without me having to end
it for myself. I just hated listening

122
00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:20.000
to those explanations, those excuses to
not treat him with the respect he had

123
00:09:20.039 --> 00:09:24.720
earned from us. But anyway,
Greg did not live far from the house.

124
00:09:24.879 --> 00:09:28.159
Going across a county around there would
take about forty minutes on a good

125
00:09:28.240 --> 00:09:31.960
day, so it was possible that
he could have been there the previous night.

126
00:09:31.960 --> 00:09:35.440
I convinced myself of that. I
accepted it, and I went back

127
00:09:35.480 --> 00:09:39.600
to bed while I heard my grandfather
doing his usual morning rituals around the house.

128
00:09:41.519 --> 00:09:43.559
A slice of bread and the old
toaster, the sound of the coffee

129
00:09:43.559 --> 00:09:48.480
grinder, and the door closing as
he took his morning walk to the corner

130
00:09:48.919 --> 00:09:56.000
to grab the newspaper. But it
was until later that evening when I saw

131
00:09:56.000 --> 00:10:00.600
the small pile of logs by the
fireplace, a couple of chair set up

132
00:10:00.639 --> 00:10:03.399
in the living room, and my
grandfather was coming out of his room with

133
00:10:03.440 --> 00:10:07.200
this nice jacket and that watch,
the one he would put on his wrists

134
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:15.200
whenever we would go out somewhere.
When I realized that he was in fact

135
00:10:15.840 --> 00:10:24.960
expecting a visitor. Part two of
Empty Seats is coming up right after this

136
00:10:24.720 --> 00:10:35.039
stay with him. My grandfather and
I used to talk a lot. We

137
00:10:35.039 --> 00:10:39.200
were both huge fans of radio and
books, so our minds were constantly filling

138
00:10:39.279 --> 00:10:43.919
up with stories and news, always
having something to talk about. But this

139
00:10:45.279 --> 00:10:50.320
and these other things that he would
tell me were different. Another one of

140
00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.799
his stories was almost as difficult to
believe as his dreams. I could tell

141
00:10:52.840 --> 00:10:56.440
the future, or about the one
with the family that used to live in

142
00:10:56.480 --> 00:11:01.039
his house before him and refused to
leave. This story, one that I

143
00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:09.120
witnessed for myself, still haunts me. I had him finished with my project

144
00:11:09.200 --> 00:11:11.159
for the day. It had taken
a bit longer than expected to set up

145
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:16.279
that computer. They weren't made like
how they are now. Those things back

146
00:11:16.279 --> 00:11:20.639
then could have a problem with the
software during installation and set everything back a

147
00:11:20.639 --> 00:11:26.039
couple of hours. All while it
reinstalled everything, but my mind was not

148
00:11:26.120 --> 00:11:31.279
quite there. I was waiting for
whoever my grandfather was expecting, and I

149
00:11:31.279 --> 00:11:35.240
could see him. He was smiling, digging into his room and coming back

150
00:11:35.240 --> 00:11:37.480
with old books to set up in
the living room bookshelf. Once again,

151
00:11:41.879 --> 00:11:45.639
two places to sit were in that
living room. That afternoon, I saw

152
00:11:45.639 --> 00:11:48.960
my grandfather clean up the front porch
and ask for help with wiping down the

153
00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:52.360
windows and the counters while he cleaned
up the floors. There was something different

154
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:56.519
about my grandfather that day, and
yet I refused to ask more about his

155
00:11:56.639 --> 00:12:00.639
friend Greg. I mean, I
was sure that he would remember me.

156
00:12:01.279 --> 00:12:03.360
I used to be around much more
back then as a kid, and he

157
00:12:03.440 --> 00:12:09.600
had been a guest in many of
our family events. Everything was finished by

158
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.600
sunset, and my grandfather sat around
the fireplace getting it ready. He powered

159
00:12:13.639 --> 00:12:18.919
on the radio and set it to
one of his favorite AM stations. I

160
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.399
quietly got back to my room to
finish up everything with that old PC,

161
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.960
and I hadn't been there for even
ten minutes when I heard a subtle knock

162
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:33.759
my grandfather opening the front door.
The tone of his voice seemed lighter,

163
00:12:33.600 --> 00:12:37.399
and he shut the door and asked
Greg to come in. As he turned

164
00:12:37.440 --> 00:12:41.200
up the radio, he would ask
questions and stay quiet and then ask another.

165
00:12:43.480 --> 00:12:46.200
It was an odd sensation being in
that room, the same one that

166
00:12:46.240 --> 00:12:48.799
I used to sleep in when I
was a little kid, and I would

167
00:12:48.799 --> 00:12:54.600
stay over evenings in that room while
my grandmother would cook in the kitchen,

168
00:12:54.399 --> 00:13:01.480
surprises sometimes pies, cakes, and
others would be second or third dinners,

169
00:13:01.600 --> 00:13:05.159
while my grandfather and his friends would
sit there in the living room and talk

170
00:13:05.279 --> 00:13:09.320
late into the night. Eventually I
would hear my grandmother walked on the hallway

171
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:13.559
to her room and take the cable
from the telephone all the way there,

172
00:13:13.200 --> 00:13:18.799
and then I would hear her talk. Her sister and her were also big

173
00:13:18.840 --> 00:13:22.399
talkers, but it was a sign
of respect of her and my parents,

174
00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:26.399
who would sometimes be there too,
to let my grandfather have those moments in

175
00:13:26.440 --> 00:13:31.279
the house. He had worked hard
all of his life and his friends were

176
00:13:31.480 --> 00:13:35.480
all he had. It may have
been just a reflex for me to want

177
00:13:35.519 --> 00:13:39.480
to stay in my room that night, but like my mom always told me,

178
00:13:39.879 --> 00:13:45.679
it's always good to come out and
say hello people like that. So

179
00:13:45.720 --> 00:13:48.360
I opened up the door and stepped
out into the hallway, and I heard

180
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:52.679
my grandfather's voice settle down as I
reached the living room, along with its

181
00:13:52.679 --> 00:13:58.080
glowing red and orange walls from the
fireplace. As I turned my head towards

182
00:13:58.120 --> 00:14:03.559
the living room, I saw my
grandfather sitting there by an empty seat.

183
00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:07.200
He was smiling, moving his hands
like he usually did when he told the

184
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:11.840
story, and then would put them
back down on his lap when he listened.

185
00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:16.600
I took a few steps backwards towards
the dark hallway, again going completely

186
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:22.600
unnoticed by my grandfather and his invisible
friend. I finally reached the room and

187
00:14:22.639 --> 00:14:30.080
shut the door quietly. I could
hear Grandpa talking over the fading radio long

188
00:14:30.240 --> 00:14:37.960
into the night. The next day, I woke up to someone knocking at

189
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.840
the door. It was quite early
well for me. My grandfather was already

190
00:14:41.919 --> 00:14:46.240
up and in the kitchen when I
heard him open the door. I took

191
00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:48.279
the opportunity to leave the room and
walk over to the front of the house,

192
00:14:48.320 --> 00:14:52.759
and I got to see Missus Johnson, one of the neighbors, standing

193
00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:58.320
there in the doorway, a solemn
look on her face. She saw me

194
00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.519
as I stepped into the living room
and said my name, mentioning that I

195
00:15:01.559 --> 00:15:05.240
had known him too, Greg who
she was talking about. She had been

196
00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:09.240
a longtime neighbor for my grandfather and
his family, so of course she would

197
00:15:09.279 --> 00:15:13.240
know Greg. She was there to
tell us that Greg had passed away a

198
00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:18.639
couple of nights ago, that she
had just found out. My grandfather looked

199
00:15:18.679 --> 00:15:24.600
surprisingly calm during the news, although
quiet, He thanked Missus Johnson and invited

200
00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:28.559
her in for a coffee, which
she accepted, and I heard them talk

201
00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:33.440
as I sat in the living room
couch about Greg and his life. I

202
00:15:33.639 --> 00:15:39.320
didn't know what to think of the
whole thing. The timing just didn't add

203
00:15:39.399 --> 00:15:43.080
up, and yet I could tell
nobody about it, in fear of how

204
00:15:43.120 --> 00:15:48.399
they would judge him and blame his
age for something so perfectly normal to him.

205
00:15:48.519 --> 00:15:52.759
Over the next several weeks, my
grandfather would set up his living room

206
00:15:52.799 --> 00:15:56.039
with two chairs by the fireplace.
On some days he would have his visitor

207
00:15:56.120 --> 00:16:03.200
sessions as he spoke to someone Greg
himself long into the night, It was

208
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:06.799
some time in February when I noticed
another chair in the living room. One

209
00:16:06.840 --> 00:16:12.320
evening at night, I could hear
him mention Greg and another name, Harry,

210
00:16:14.039 --> 00:16:18.759
as his voice echoed down the hallway. I left in early March a

211
00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:22.639
job opening I applied for had actually
worked out, and I thanked my grandfather

212
00:16:22.720 --> 00:16:26.000
for everything as I cleaned up my
room and moved my things into my car

213
00:16:27.240 --> 00:16:30.600
on my way out, I promised
that I would be back that following month

214
00:16:30.679 --> 00:16:34.080
to visit. It would be his
birthday in April, and we had always

215
00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:37.159
held a small dinner for him at
his house, but I wanted to see

216
00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:41.360
him before then. Who else would
be able to understand what was going on

217
00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:48.159
at my grandfather's house. Everything at
my new job went fine, and I

218
00:16:48.240 --> 00:16:52.440
was able to make it about three
weeks later back to my grandfather's house to

219
00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:56.000
visit by myself one weekend, and
when I got there, I didn't know

220
00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:00.639
what to think. There were three
other chain around the fireplace in his living

221
00:17:00.759 --> 00:17:04.839
room. I greeted him as I
always did, and I helped him move

222
00:17:04.880 --> 00:17:10.920
a few things and completely ignored the
empty seats in the living room. That

223
00:17:11.039 --> 00:17:15.680
evening, as expected, I heard
my grandfather talking to his invisible guests.

224
00:17:17.480 --> 00:17:23.759
I could hear their names, Greg, Harry, and the third George.

225
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:32.680
Lots of stories and lonely conversations that
went deep into the night. Eventually I

226
00:17:32.759 --> 00:17:37.720
heard as he said goodbye to them
one by one, with that door opening

227
00:17:37.759 --> 00:17:44.799
and closing, opening and closing.
The fireplace was dying down when I stepped

228
00:17:44.839 --> 00:17:47.960
out of the room and I saw
my grandfather sitting by the glowing embers.

229
00:17:48.119 --> 00:17:53.680
The radio was playing softly in the
background. He heard me walking over and

230
00:17:53.759 --> 00:17:59.319
asked me to come sit with him, and I did. After staying silent

231
00:17:59.359 --> 00:18:02.799
for a bit, he looked at
me, threw those tiny eyes under his

232
00:18:02.839 --> 00:18:11.279
eyebrows, and said, soon I'll
be the only one left. Suddenly there

233
00:18:11.319 --> 00:18:17.279
was a knock at the front door. My grandfather walked over to it slowly

234
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:22.720
and opened it. The fire started
crackling, and the volume of the radio

235
00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:29.359
went up by itself as he said
a few things out to the open empty

236
00:18:29.480 --> 00:18:36.160
doorframe, things that I couldn't quite
hear. I stood up just as he

237
00:18:36.200 --> 00:18:40.759
said goodbye and agreed to meet tomorrow
night with whoever had been at the door.

238
00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:48.440
Mentioning the name Peter, the last
one of his living friends, he

239
00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:52.880
stood by the door, this time
for a few seconds before walking to the

240
00:18:52.920 --> 00:18:59.720
window and closing the curtains. There
was no more snow outside this time,

241
00:19:00.200 --> 00:19:18.599
to prove to me that someone had
been there that night. Scary Story podcast
