So, yay us. And recently, it's been very hard to live so far away from my family. My family lives in Long Island. However, your podcast has been amazing and a lifesaver. When I was 16 years old, I was contacted by a ghost named Abigail. Oh, my. She is a very sweet young girl that found me one day in my old house in connecticut oh my oh my she doesn't say anything but loves playing with lights and turning the radio on she highly loves listening to 90s alternative rock she's my girl every time it comes on in

the house the radio gets louder and louder without me or my boyfriend touching it that's like me in the afterlife playing pearl jam really loudly in every fall out boy well abby has decided to stay in my life for years now she came with me to college far away abby must know because she always turns lights on to show that she's with me oh she is part of my family when i first started listening to you guys i think abby was excited because all the christmas lights in my house turned on. Okay. Whoa. Thank you, Abby, but also please stay in Bozeman. Stay in Montana. Love you from Bozeman.

You have a ghost that highly enjoys you. We have ghost fans. I've never wanted anything more. Actually, Abby, what's up, girl? How you doing? I'm Sam. How you doing? Abby. Well, I just wanted to thank you for all the hard work you guys do for this podcast it makes me feel at home have a great day lulabelle and abby that's precious i've listen if four-year-old me knew that i had a fan that was a ghost a ghost

fan i would lose my mind a ghost fan so that's what i'm currently doing christmas lights oh my okay that's a good chill i just got wild okay i swear to god if the lights just went on and off i would stop breathing i'd be like and the podcast is done we should have pretended they did but no no no all right well thank you guys thank you um specifically abby sorry lulabo not thank you to at least my new favorite so anyway okay i have an email from ally i'm ready it says hi oh hey girl i'm a recent fan of the podcast and i was excited to hear that you were looking for paranormal and crime stories we were okay here's mine ever since i can remember my cousins have lived in this big old house in some weird farm town in Pennsylvania.

Oh, good. What did I tell you about Pennsylvania? What did I tell you about old farmhouses? It has multiple fields, three barns, a tennis court, and the best part, the biggest pool I've ever seen. Okay. What the hell kind of farm is this? This is some country club ranch sounds like the greatest when my cousins were looking into moving in the house my littlest cousin who was five at the time

stopped in the middle of the living room and said something along the lines of mommy someone shot themselves in this room oh yay totally weird but they just kind of brushed it off. Okay. After they moved in, they had a pretty good amount of paranormal shit happen in the house. You know, the standard seeing a woman standing over your baby's bed, random screaming, doors locking behind people when they'd leave a room, a huge Grim Reaper painting hidden behind a sheet in the attic. What the fuck? No thanks. No thanks. You get the picture. What the fuck? No thanks. No thanks.

You get the picture. Get it? Get it? You get the Grim Reaper picture. It wasn't until a few years later that they found out what really happened in the house. No one really knows what caused this whole thing to happen,

but here's what we do know. The owner of the house had a massive breakdown one day, knocked his wife out with a baseball bat oh shit tied bricks to her feet and threw her in the pool where she drowned oh no he then proceeded to hang his son in one of the barns oh my god and shot himself in the living room right where my cousin had pointed it out those five years earlier no apparently the house was on sale for a while go fucking figure and my cousins got it for a steal

because there was so much to do we'd always go up there for family parties what was our favorite pastime swimming in the fucking pool oh my god when i got a little older around 15 or 16 and was told what happened you best believe i still swam in that pool what the hell girl you wild i would be like no thank you not no chlorine in the world could be strong enough to clean i don't even know what could be in there i would just imagine a dead body on the other side of the pool every second you're a rebel and a half uh it's like that movie uh what lies beneath have you ever seen that i don't want to scared the shit out of me as a kid okay you best believe i still swim in that pool but after that i never opened my eyes underwater uh yeah that'll change it it's like oh i if as long as i don't open my eyes and see a dead body i'll swim next to to it. Cool. You're a little crazy girl.

Or swim in the deep end in fear of seeing the woman in the bottom of the pool. Or feeling like an arm grab your ankle and pull you down. Listen. Ugh. Allie. Yikes. Stay out of that fucking pool. Allie, don't go back there.

What is wrong with you? Literally never go back. No. All right. Doie, don't go back there. What is wrong with you? Literally never go back. No. All right. Do you have a story? I do. You were talking about Allie, so I got a story from Sally. No way.

I do. And she's Team Milkshake. That's all that matters. Sally says, hey, Em and Christine. I love that I'm always first. Keep that up, guys. I just discovered. Hey, that's rude.

I just discovered your podcast like two weeks ago, and I've already binged through everything i thank you uh it's my favorite podcast now i'm a college student in texas and i would listen to you guys while walking home at night bad idea no don't do that which was probably the worst idea ever oh so you agree with us did you know everyone is a murderer all of them it's crazy wait she's the best i was about to say everyone will kill you take your headphones out i'd be like turn around like look over your shoulder every now and then my hometown is san antonio and we have one of the most haunted hotels in america oh my it's called the emily morgan hotel and unfortunately i've never been there because money okay amen if you guys decide to cover it let me know and i'll go take some pictures for you

such a babe we're gonna be like spend all your money and go stay there she literally writes throw me some of that patreon money and i'll even stay the night just that you're just kidding unless you're down she's like kidding but not she's like i'm kidding but i'm not kidding but also i want a free haunted hotel room and it's like hi girl me too let's have a slumber party there oh my god let's do it can you imagine if instead of going on live tours we just went on live sleepovers to haunted hotels and everyone just rented a room in the floor listen someone had that idea on facebook and we were trying to coordinate it in la oh my gosh we're working on it the only thing that scares me is of course one person that comes might be a murderer yep everyone's gonna be joking and be like ha ha ha i'm not a murderer and i'll be like oh my god i

don't believe you but then we can play like clue and be like who killed who with a rope in the dining room okay you can be the dead one i'll play that game with everyone who killed christine in the ballroom with not me because i kept my door fucking locked so i was afraid of the murderer so it was colonel mustard uh it was colonel g anyway probably sally says my story is from my junior year of high school i was a pretty shy kid never really went to parties or anything but this girl that i was friends with uh who was a senior asked me to go to this party with her i had like a stupid massive crush on her so i was all yeah i love parties i party every day totally good times good times been there done that oh yeah oh yeah so we go to this party where i literally know no one but my friend uh but it's pretty chill

the house is on a sizable plot of land uh out of the city so we're sitting on this deck in the backyard i'm not even drinking because i'm too nervous parentheses if only i knew the confidence enhancing properties of alcohol at the time amen christine found them for you i found them way late but yeah i'm with you and there's probably five or six other people out on the deck with us there's this other girl lying in a hammock out in the middle of the yard probably like 20 feet away from us then all of a sudden she sits up and says hey guys come look at this there's something in the sky so we get up and walk out to the yard and look up at the dark sky and there's a big black triangle shape oh this is a fucking alien shut the fuck up against the night sky right above

us it's just pitch black it's so dark that the sky around it looks purple no we're just standing there looking up at it in silence for like 20 seconds. It doesn't even move at all. It's just a dark spot floating up there. By the way, the worst thing to do if you see a UFO is just stand directly under it and stare at it welcomingly. But what are you going to do otherwise? You run and hide. You put a tinfoil hat on.

Okay. Then the girl who had been in the hammock freaking cups her hands around her mouth and shouts up at it. We can see you. No, no, no, no, no. And I swear to God, it just zoomed away. And what the fuck? Silently, it just zooms away. And what the fuck?

Just one second, it was there. And then fast as fuck. I like how she said freaking cups her mouth and then fast as fuck. She freaking cups her mouth? said freaking cups her mouth and then fast as fuck. She freaking cups her mouth? She freaking cups her hands and then it's fast as fuck. It flies off. Sometimes freaking just has a better like tone to it. Well, the next thing she says is we were shooketh.

Wait, are you serious? Yeah. We were shooketh. I remember this so vividly because I was always into the X-Files and loved ghost stories and stuff like that. Fuck yeah. But as like entertainment, nothing has ever actually happened to me. And this was the first thing I had ever experienced. The craziest part is that since then, I've seen no less than three more unidentified things in the sky at night.

I've seen no less than three more unidentified things in the sky. No. I've even become super familiar to the ways planes and helicopters look at night because I'm so accustomed to seeing shit. No. Which is cool and I dig it now. Girl, don't get into that. No. You're going to get taken.

You're going to get probed. My friend and I were super quiet going home that night and we never talked about it after. I don't talk to her very much anymore, but sometimes I think about asking her about it. Don't want to seem crazy, though. I like how it's like, oh, I like this girl. I'm going to go to a party for her. Maybe I'll get a kiss out of it. Oh, then an alien showed up.

Maybe I'll get abducted and probed by aliens instead. But we also don't talk anymore. Anyways, thanks for reading. Can't wait to hear you guys next week. Sincerely, Sally Team Milkshake. Sally. also don't talk anymore anyways thanks for reading can't wait to hear you guys next week sincerely sally team milkshake sally sally stay at home next time this is why i don't go to parties sally stay inside close the blinds close them good wrap some tinfoil around your head here's the thing tell me they do say that people who see UFOs... Yeah? There's a certain type of person.

Okay. And they see them repeatedly. All right. And then no one else sees them. Oh, my. Isn't that interesting? Yes. I...

That would make sense, because I'm always, like, in a fascinated way, desperate to see a UFO, but I can't see them me too but i feel like i am just like the people who are desperate to see ghosts but can't see them same but i can see them and i'm like trust me you're not fucking missing anything right and that's probably how people who see ufos would say something i feel like i'd rather see ghosts than a you i don't know i don't know because with ghosts come demons with aliens come probing yeah like aliens don't just i feel like sometimes ghosts just pop in like granted there's the bad ones but there's ghosts that show up just to say hi and we miss you aliens if they show up it's

like you're fizzucked yeah they're never just there to be like hello you're like a material to be it's like congratulations you are now objectified very intimately you're a scientific scientific subject yes and no there really was like this interesting article i read that was like a certain type of person is sees ufos or experiences alien abductions numerous times throughout their lives. And other people just never do. It's like a very specific, I don't know like what differentiates those people, but people who see a UFO are bound to see them multiple times throughout their lives. And so, isn't that weird?

So part of me is like, I want to see a UFO. And then I'm like, but do I want to wake up in the middle of the night and feel like I'm being abducted and then wake up? know yeah yeah yeah it's it's probably a no-go on my end like i'm just gonna let sally take that one yeah sally it's all you girl it's all you okay so i have a story here from erin it says hey christine it's me again oh okay erin hi never mind i don't even need to be here hey erin it's me again. Oh, okay, Erin. Hi. Never mind. I don't even need to be here. Hey, Erin. It's me again.

Okay, so it says, I've listened to episode 24 and your story at the end about your missing retainer and your dad's calculator reminded me of another story I have about my spooky as shit life. Yes. This sounds like Clarissa explains it all. Like, my spooky as shit life. Okay, so it's Christine like clarissa explains it all like my spooky as shit life okay so it's christine and clarissa explains it all and i'm third wheeling on the email so got it i mean i don't know why you're surprised but it's fine one day about 13 years ago my dad came home from the shop with some car air fresheners and left them in the kitchen a few days later he

shouted up to me in my room asking where the second one had gone and if I had taken it. I had not. I said I'd probably just fell behind the counter because he was too lazy to put them into the car, in all capital letters, where they belong. Period. Period. Gotcha, gotcha, gotcha.

So it was just forgotten about and never spoken of again. Then, two years or so later, I was getting ready to move out of my house to go to university and was cleaning out my room. Parentheses. Remember the email I sent before about the millions of emails I've collected? I don't. I do. This also applied to birthday slash Christmas cards, carrier bags from stores I liked, and a load of other crap. So it took me some time to get through it all.

Anyway, I was going through a load of cards and came across ones from my 16th birthday. I was 19 at the time. I found one that said, to my lovely granddaughter on the front. My gran had died that same year she had sent it and inside she had said how proud she was of me but not only that when i opened it i found the air freshener yeesh oh no in a card that was sent to me three years previously no a year before the bloody air freshener was even bought. Oh, my God. Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. My whole, my back has goosebumps. Inside the card. My mom said she has never heard me scream so loud or so horribly. And I went running down the stairs and just threw it on the floor in front of them, completely speechless and as white as a ghost. No pun intended. We have never been able to understand how that thing got there, but I have still kept it to this day.

I think it was her way of saying she was still proud of me, and more so because I was going to uni. I was the first one on her side of the family to do so, and wanted to let me know. But why she chose the air freshener is anyone's guess. Make sure you smell good when you go off from home.

Sometimes it's okay to swipe shit if it's to make a point. Thanks for reading. Keep up the massive work of spooking me on slow days at work when all I do is binge listen. Erin. Thank you, Erin. Isn't that creepy?

My elbows are shivering. I have one from a Twitter handle of at Abby underscore knows it all. Oh, okay. Let's see how much she knows. Apparently, all of it. She knows it all. She says, Hi there. I have a brief little happy weird.

That's a lot of descriptions. I have a brief little happy weird story that you might be interested in. I am intrigued. We'll be the judge of that. Okay, so we are testing this story on brief, little, happy, and weird. Okay. When I was a little girl, my mother worked for a company owned by a man with a very strict policy about personal phone use. We lived 45 minutes away, so she would call and let the phone ring once to signify she

was on her way home. For over a decade, five or six days a week, a single phone ring told us that my mom was coming. Oh. My mother died of cancer on March 2nd, 2005 at exactly 1 p.m. and I was 17. Oh. For the next several years, on my birthday, Christmas, and March 2nd, the day that she died,

my cell phone would ring once at 1pm. Even if it was on silent, the caller ID was read as unknown caller. The last time my phone rang was March 2nd, 2010. Six months later, I met my partner, Tom, and the phone hasn't done that since. I think she likes him. Oh my god. Wow them oh my god wow oh my god okay so that was brief little happy and weird and you did a great job wow you fulfilled all our expectations

that was a good one that was that was a good one sad one sweet one all all the other descriptive words you didn't use if i were simon cowell i would be speechless that says a lot but i'm not so i'm just gonna talk about it oh that's amazing that's amazing i wonder if after like four or five years if they just sat there at 12 59 and wanted to see if like on command if it would happen if they were like in a meeting like oh man i gotta go to the bathroom yeah mom's gonna call i wonder if she i mean i know she wouldn't answer but if you picked up if anything would happen i don't know but that's really sweet that really is thank you abby thanks abby okay we got one last one one last one so this one's

called funny not so ghosty story wonderful i wanted to end on on a on a positive note oh you always do on a true crime i never self-deprecating paranormal podcast i never do but i'm trying real hard today okay hi christine and m this is from nicole hi nicole hi christine and m my apologies for sending an email explaining the random feat oh i guess that that happened the day after i worked up oh The day after I worked up the courage to send the email, I listened to the episode where you read out the same explanation. Face palm. Oh, about like feet washing up. Oh, okay. Well, I guess apology except to Nicole.

But also, you keep throwing disembodied feet in my face. So really, you're kind of asking for me to hate you. Nicole, we're never going to forgive you. Never, never not once that's why we're reading your story on air just kidding no it was because we got those emails that we were like let's actually discuss what everyone is telling us right right right is the real reason all right nicole give us a good one okay anyways i have a story that i think you might like when i was in sixth grade my school let out early on wednesday both of my parents worked but i was able to get a ride home from school and stay home alone for a few hours this was the first time i was really allowed to be home by myself

one day i was upstairs and distinctly heard footsteps coming from downstairs i grabbed the landline phone and locked myself in the bathroom crying i knew i did not imagine hearing the footsteps and i was absolutely terrified i called my parents and my dad came home to check it out since i was so freaked out he came and rescued me from the bathroom and walked around the house finding nothing we were upstairs after the investigation and heard the footsteps again i could see my dad was alarmed because I did not imagine the noises like he was probably thinking at that point. We went downstairs together to find the source of the noise.

My dog, who was still a puppy at the time, had gotten a new bone. It was too big to fit in his mouth, so he kept picking up and dropping the bone over and over, making a noise that sounded exactly like footsteps oh so here i am the biggest wimp ever because i was afraid of an excited little puppy cancer took him too soon but i bet he would love geo oh thanks for the podcast it keeps me parentheses in sane at work x XOXO, Nicole. And here's a picture of the little pup.

Oh, sweet baby. Oh, itty bitty baby. I know I said I was going to end on a happy note, but the dog passed away. Why do I do this? But also, that's adorable. I know. It was picking up the bone and dropping it. He was so tiny that the bone was so big,

he couldn't even fit in his mouth like footsteps oh itty bitty baby oh anyway that story just really got me good tugged my heartstrings got me going oh what a little babe oh thank you nicole thanks nicole anyway thanks guys don't you have to read everyone's names now yeah i was still gonna say thank you okay sorry i didn't know i mean listen not anyone want to like thank everyone it's fine thank you guys so much for sending us so many stories when we did our first episode we didn't have really any stories at all to go off of and now we just have so many so we could if we wanted we could do this every week and not get through everything so we're very appreciative yeah um we hope you liked your 10th episode i
