Starting point is 00:05:37 Right, hold on. We're having major, major issues here. There we go. Get on. Come on. What's happening? I don't know. It's you talking about ghost season that's what that was happened to be fair it was really tight so I don't know I don't I'm not a little bit confused on how that
Starting point is 00:05:54 happens we're gonna have to put that there let me do this it fit a minute ago and what now it's not fitting that's weird. It doesn't fit the hole. It doesn't fit the hole. That's what she said. Right. I'm actually super excited about this month of October. Yeah, it's going to be a good one. It'll be fun. Well, no, it won't.
Starting point is 00:06:18 Because for me, I absolutely love the topic of, you know, spooky shit. Right, hold on. I'm still tightening. Bear with. Oh, that's a tight fit. So it's literally spooky stuff. It's encounters. Paranormal.
Starting point is 00:06:37 Minutes. Anything terrifying I can find. The scarier, the better for Ems because she loves it. Don't you you babes? It's just not funny. It's just not funny. And that just brings me more joy. Hello!
Starting point is 00:06:54 It's just not funny. Right, so hello everyone and welcome to Middle-Aged Opinion. Is that right? Absolutely. For fuck's sake. Hello everyone and welcome to Middle-Aged Opinion. I'm your host, Ellie. And I am Emily.
Starting point is 00:07:13 And this is our spooky podcast. We have to put in some tunes. Is that Jaws? No. No. That's not. Is that Jaws? No.
Starting point is 00:07:23 That's... That's a great film, that is. I love Jaws. It's put me right off swimming. That's why I don't go into the sea. But also, I keep seeing about all these shark attacks in England, so I've decided I'm never going in the sea again. And somebody threw a sandwich off overboard on a cruise and the sea became alive.
Starting point is 00:07:47 So I've decided... Over a sandwich? Yeah. Was it a good sandwich? Well, by the looks of it. But it's made me think I never want to go in the water ever again. Yeah, because it's alive.
Starting point is 00:07:57 Yeah, like it's fully alive. It is fully alive. It's fully alive. What did I... I can't remember what country it was in. It might have been the US, but there was like this honking size of a fucking great white washed up dead on the beach so they're trying to pull it they can't pull it because it's right huge they don't know why it's why it died like but it was
Starting point is 00:08:16 sort of covered in blood as well really weird which means something bigger got it. I know orcas kill sharks. Oh, no, I watched something else about sharks where sharks would kill dolphins, but dolphins are too quick. But this particular video that I saw, he had this dolphin, and it was just like into. It was very nice. Did the whole pod then attack? No, it was on its own.
Starting point is 00:08:44 Well, he's dead. he's definitely on his own brown bread yeah but the shark was fucking huge yeah this is what i'm saying babe like i'm not into it they're getting bigger yeah it's probably chemicals i was just gonna say it's full of hormones and pollution yeah and apparently most fish have now, like, coke in their system. Yes, I've heard this. Yeah, where so much has been chucked in. But yet I'm getting high when I'm eating tuna. What's that thing that's in the pill? Is it oestrogen?
Starting point is 00:09:14 Oestrogen. So there are fish that has oestrogen in them as well because... Well, that would explain growth. Honestly, it's just... I mean, they're growing massive with big tits. And really bad attitudes once in a while. Yeah, literally. Right.
Starting point is 00:09:31 So, are you happy for me to start? Oh, please do, babe. Please do. Kick us off. When I was finding... So, we love a bit of... If anyone wants to give us... She keeps saying we.
Starting point is 00:09:42 She's... Go on. It is we. Is it us? Because we were there were there yeah you'll you'll read the story in a minute so we sometimes get constructive criticism always welcome always welcome so if you've got anything that will listen but yeah but anything that will help us like we have implemented like especially when i do the segments uh on TikTok and that I've now put in
Starting point is 00:10:05 translate where you can read everything that we're saying the times of the video blah blah blah so um one of two of our friends suggested that we proofread before doing it I mean I quite like the surprise even when I'm reading especially when I'm reading and I know it's a surprise to me, but she's really upset with it. That brings me joy. So I read, I pre-read all my stories for these two episodes that we're recording tonight. And then I thought, I wonder if I've got enough. I've read 22, 22 stories I've saved. I, on the other hand, didn't.
Starting point is 00:10:42 No, didn't take that advice because I'm really tired and I really didn't have the time I literally was like oh that sounds great which is pretty much how we go initially that is what we do and then I'd open it and it was about 20 pages long and I said no no that's not good and I would move on although some of my stories are pages long and I said, no. No, that's not good. And I would move on from that. Although some of my stories are very long, but I did proofread. So hopefully I'll get through them. That's good for you. Yes. Well, you see, I don't think, I think, I think my brain's either fully into the reading or not.
Starting point is 00:11:16 And I think that's just part of my dyslexia. I don't think it's whether I proofread or not. Although sometimes when I'm reading and it's a shock factor makes me happy because the shock factor for her is worse and uh that brings me joy right so let me get oh it does bring me joy though especially when you're like right so all right we've got every light on in this room as well because we don't do you think it's too much no i don't yeah i don't want to get the last one it's gonna be spooky right so i played hide and seek with a ghost no here's my ghost experience okay Oh, my God, here we go. Okay. It's already a no from me.
Starting point is 00:12:05 It's a long one, so just bear with us. My family meets for dinner every Tuesday night at my grandmother's house. Everyone comes, aunts, uncles, cousins, family, friends. It's a tradition that's been going on for decades now. Us teens, kids, are usually pushed to play outside. Being that my grandparents' house is on a decent sized property, we tend to explore and make up games. We recently, our favourite game is Flashlight Hide and Seek. That's a misprint clearly no no no no no the first bit we recently our favorite game we played recently our favorite game I
Starting point is 00:12:52 think that's what's meant to say flashlight hide and see I've never played that of you yeah not play it on how do we flashlight hide and seek uh in the dark yeah the rules are simple wait till it's dark out and the seeker has a flesh flashlight you shine it on someone and say their name if you're right they have to go and sit on the porch till the game is over if you are wrong the person can hide again. We play till everyone is found or we have to go home. Usually there are at least six plus people hiding and one to three seekers. Not long after playing this game every week we started noticing after a few rounds that someone extra was playing few rounds that someone extra was playing and would hide in unusual places that we that were hard to reach dangerous but very obvious if you shone the light on them places like a prickly bush in a tree under a shed in the window or an abandoned r. At first we thought it was our younger
Starting point is 00:14:06 youngest cousin who didn't normally follow the rules and would hide in odd places then claim they were never found. We always thought he was lying and let it go. One night we were playing and I saw my brother hiding in a spot and he yelled at me to move away when I tried to join him. I was forced to run across the way and hide on the other side of the swing set from him in some trees. The only thing between us was a large prickly bush. No one hides in. And another potting. a large prickly bush no one hides in and another potter yeah we were giggling during this game because my sister was the seeker and she kept walking past us even though we were very poorly hidden she shines the light close to my brother and i at the bushes between us this was us this was when us i think it means we go quiet and my sister said
Starting point is 00:15:08 i found you come out i see you she broke the rules by naming every kid that was still playing the game which was only four people left hiding for a second i stood up because I thought she was talking to me and my brother stood up. Then when someone stood up right in front of my sister from the bush between us, what made it much more heart-stopping was that it didn't even make a sound when it stood up from the prickles. Nothing caught on their clothes, no leaves rustled, silence, and yet they stood up quickly. Neither my brother nor I have seen this kid before. He was too short from any kid playing the game.
Starting point is 00:15:58 Even my little cousin was taller than this kid. My sister said, who are you? Before she screamed and threw the flashlight at the kid. I didn't take my eyes off the kid. My sister said, who are you? Before she screamed and threw the flashlight at the kid. I didn't take my eyes off the kid. I was frozen in place. The flashlight just flew right into the bushes where it should have hit the kid in the chest. And as soon as the light disappeared into the bushes, the kid sat back down, crawled backwards back into the bushes the kids sat back down crawled backwards back into the bushes never making a sound till he was gone my brother and I jaws on the floor we ran off and asked my sister what happened to confirm our stories she said that she
Starting point is 00:16:39 swore she could have seen right through him and he had no arms or eyes. That was the first time we realised that there was a ghost playing with us. Since then we would see him hiding from time to time. Sometimes we would go looking for him to call him out. He usually just stands up and disappears. Over 20 plus people and counting have found him. We invited anyone to play as the seeker to find him. Even a few adults have seen him when playing with us. I didn't believe in ghosts till this game and now I'm determined for people to play if they don't believe. What do you think of that? Yeah, I wouldn't be playing that game anymore or going to that park i'd be staying well it's not park that's their house the frick away no you wouldn't want to play
Starting point is 00:17:34 in home seat with the ghost boy so that's in their grandma's garden property yeah why would they have to sit on the porch then or her back porch so if if they were caught they'd go that's where they'd go until everybody in my head they were like out on like a play area yes and then i'm assuming in the grandma's they've got the swing set it says a large property would you believe your child i wouldn't be playing that game anymore would you believe it if one of the boys were like, mum? They wouldn't be playing the game anymore. I feel like they're asking for trouble. And what if you were literally looking out your window
Starting point is 00:18:13 and the little shit is out there hiding? No. No arms. I wouldn't even go through my back door anymore. I ain't going out there. No arms, no eyes. No thanks. And I feel like, why are you enticing this spirit? No, thank you.
Starting point is 00:18:33 It's a no. So there are some comments. Go on. People said, very cool story. Thanks for sharing. Has any children passed away on the property, to your knowledge? Opie said, no, but the house has an old soldier like ghost and another child like in it i believe the children in it in it in it
Starting point is 00:18:53 not in it in it yeah in it yeah in it in it i believe the children are related in some way definitely not the same ghost though the house child is mischievous and evil while the child outside is very shy and just wants to play with us hell no hell to the no no no yeah i'm out i mean to be fair the the OP does... I'm not going to read it all. I love you, Nan. Can we do this at my house? I mean, now he's saying there's an evil one. I mean, you are just asking for trouble, in my opinion. I mean, why would you?
Starting point is 00:19:35 And they're looking for it when they're outside. No. No. Yeah, and then he's like... I would be so... Come over and play hide and seek. Yeah, I'd be ignoring it. If I was seeing it, I would be ignoring it. Like, I would ignoring it if i was seeing it i would be ignoring
Starting point is 00:19:45 it like i would literally be like right so someone else has said i have no idea if you're religious spiritual but i'd honestly recommend getting the house blessed if this child is bothering you or your family lots of religions have different ways of blessing the home and it doesn't get rid of the positive or possessive spirits when we were younger my siblings and i were bothered by a spirit in our old house so we had the home blessed and never had any negative interactions after that i feel like they're asking i don't feel like they're having a negative interaction in the garden with this particular no i'm not i figure yeah but you're right the the child and and army guy in the building now i feel like you're asking for problems like look no no i don't like it it's a no i'm not you can say emily's gonna enjoy this month
Starting point is 00:20:46 okay i just don't get why why i don't know why you'd entice i mean that's a big thing for me you know that's what i've told you many times what if it was being all quiet and shy and whatever whatever and then it was just waiting to be close enough so it can latch on to you that's what i'm saying you have no idea what intentions are right because that's what i'm saying people say i mean why did you scream why did the sister scream because he had no eyes or arms you've been like i mean i wouldn't even spoken i would not have even gone who are you what the fuck yeah yeah nah yeah I feel like because a lot of you know you're encouraging you're encouraging connection aren't you I don't want to what what what I hate these stories I hate these stories
Starting point is 00:21:39 like you've got to get in the spirit Octoberfest Octoberfest we're in the mood for Halloween right over to you let's see what you've found mine's shorter than yours unnerving noises at night new neighbours okay okay mate do you know what I've noticed I'm shorter than yours. Unnerving noises at night. New neighbours.
Starting point is 00:22:05 Okay. Okay. Mate. Do you know what? I've noticed you say that every... Yeah, you do. I go, okay. Okay. I almost try and make a point of doing it as well.
Starting point is 00:22:15 I can. So I go, okay. Or you go, okay. I know. Okay. Okay. When you tell me the story. So it once comes from scary stories okay
Starting point is 00:22:26 okay all right i have to get comfy now oh so they started really positive was it hi peoples yeah hi peeps being haunted yay what are you up to I've been dealing with some creepy noises at night ever since my new neighbours moved in and it started to really get to me every few nights usually around 2am I was awake at
Starting point is 00:22:59 2am last night that's not ok around 2am but it hasn't happened at but it has happened sorry at various hours of the night and only ever at night i work from home quite a bit and have never heard it in the day i hear what sounds like a man in heavy boots running along the fence between our houses. The fence is right outside my window, so the noise is incredibly loud and hard to ignore. The sound is too deliberate and heavy to be an animal. It generally feels like someone is sprinting with purpose. It generally feels like someone is sprinting with purpose.
Starting point is 00:23:46 It generally... Generally some with unnerving rustling. What? I understand what's happening. She just spelt the word wrong. I don't... Yeah. Oh, I missed a word. It generally some with unnerving rustling.
Starting point is 00:24:03 So she means it definitely sounds like yeah i've heard a loud thud like whoever it or whatever it is has actually hit the fence or what i'm anxious about is it could be them jumping the fence there's a family next door and while there is a man who lives there I can't shake this uneasy feeling that someone isn't right. Something isn't right. See this is why we proofread. We don't proofread. We've started to because we got tugged. I'm half tempted to peek over the fence to see what's going on but the thought of what I might see or worse, being caught looking makes me hesitate. This whole situation is really unsettling and I find myself lying awake for hours after waking up to it.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Has anyone else experienced something like this? What would you do in my shoes? I'm losing sleep and could really use some advice on how to handle this. Or even advice on what you think it could be. That's it. I would not go looking to see what it is no and i would make sure everything is locked tight as yeah i feel like the only real sensible thing in my head would be during the day yeah go knock on the neighbor and say hi i don't suppose you're hearing this too yeah have you heard any or you know is this you yeah yeah like maybe he's practicing for the
Starting point is 00:25:49 marathon and just running on the fence or maybe he's i don't know just i'm trying to make a reason for it you know i tried to oh my god he's clearly training for the marathon carrying on the fence carrying some really heavy stuff that rubs against the fence i personally well yeah probably i wouldn't mind speaking to the neighbor but i would i might set up a camera to see if i can see what's going on but i wouldn't have my ass out there no go what's going on who is it who is it no close that door lock the window, pull the curtains, turn off the lights. And you didn't hear anything. Nothing at all.
Starting point is 00:26:30 Who, what, where, where? Exactly. I don't like things like that. I don't like things like that. But, do you know, last night, again, I woke up at two o'clock. You're waking up at two every morning. No, no.
Starting point is 00:26:43 If I'm going to wake up, and there's an actual time, it's at two every morning. No, no. If I'm going to wake up and there's an actual time, it's between two and three. Yeah, those bad hours. Well, two's not bad. Three's the witching hour. Three, I get a lot. It's like demonic.
Starting point is 00:26:58 Three, I get a lot. But I've always got it. Not just in my flat. Like, I've always got three. But two seems to be the last couple of months but anywho have you tried white noise yeah honestly I sleep with white noise I've been sleeping with music at the moment yeah but anyway last night I decided to put my tumble dryer on because I'll get that done because the neighbors are away i'll get that done not going to serve no one so i'm awake thinking is your washing machine also a tumble dryer yeah okay yes i did that because i'm like where is your where is it though i love it once it breaks
Starting point is 00:27:40 fluffy towels and my socks are soft i mean yeah I've got it I've got a tumble dryer I didn't know about a two in one see how we've gone completely sorry yeah I hate it I am I wouldn't go looking if I was them I don't think it's
Starting point is 00:27:59 advisable to go looking for trouble at all if something starts coming closer... What about the demonic... Hound dog, devil dog. No. Sometimes... No.
Starting point is 00:28:16 Sometimes things are there to try and entice us into that paranormal, that thing. I talk about that a lot because i i've you know i don't know if i've said it before on the podcast but my friends all know before something happens sometimes i know it's going to happen that's a true fact is it not and um my sister says to me a lot open your third eye i think no i'm a good bitch. Ain't got time for it or other people's drama. Because it actually frightens me. Because I don't think you can always decipher between the good and the bad.
Starting point is 00:28:55 No. Because it's trickery. Yes. And there's so much of it. Yeah. And then there's been a video. Are we going to go to those woods? Just sorry. Or those caves.
Starting point is 00:29:03 Yeah, yeah, no, I definitely do it. There's been a video. So I sent the girls a video and I'm sleeping in the lounge and then all of a sudden there's hundreds of orbs around me. Do you remember that video? So my sister thinks that they're coming to try and communicate with me. No, thank you. The line's closed.
Starting point is 00:29:23 I'm busy with my own mental health issues. I've got time for any messages or anything else yes I can barely decipher what's going on myself yeah so this is not medium all right but anyway so that's a hell to the no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no So, burn it. Burn it with fire. I feel like my aunt's to every kid, sell it. Get out. Sell it. Don't be there. You want no part of it. Leave it to somebody else to deal with. Don't worry about that. We could go and do some like haunted locations. That's why I think

Starting point is 00:30:58 She's got garlic. It depends what blood group you are as well. Oh, I'm not even getting... So, I'm universal, so I'm probably a tasty meal. Yeah, I wouldn't bother with eating me.

Starting point is 00:32:06 so much rubbish there's so much blood that is hard to decipher to actually go and be this is a hundred percent real yeah it's difficult yeah okay anyway yeah actually there is some sort of something and i'm good for that yeah i'm not i don't want nothing to do with it but you do you mate you do you over there right i wanted to share i wanted to share something strange that's been happening in the family's cabin in the mountains the cabin was built in 1991 and it's a beautiful place literally at the end of the road surrounded by nature deer rabbits badgers and foxes roam in the garden and everyone who visits falls in love with the place dogs included english i'm grasping english at the moment i can't remember some badgers i'm going
Starting point is 00:32:59 it's english i believe i read that in one of the stories. Over the years, we've started joking that there's a friendly ghost living in there. Maybe a relative or a friend who love the place so much as we do. The cabin is made out of wood, so it makes creaking noises as it warms up in the sun. Burn it. Which just adds to the atmosphere. My cabin does that. It's lovely. Especially in the rain. rain oh i like the rain
Starting point is 00:33:26 the rain thing that's great in the last four to five years we've noticed some odd but not too weird things happening lights would flicker but stopped after we fixed them and the microwave started making strange noise like morse code again fix it and no longer an issue. We've always just assumed it was our friendly ghost making its presence known. However, two months ago something happened and we can't brush it off. My wife saw someone she thought was me but when she realised I wasn't there she got a bit spooked. What really unsettled her was the figure's appearance. This ghost was well dressed wearing dark suit and pants and a nice white shirt. On another occasion she saw the figure in a light colored linen suit
Starting point is 00:34:20 walking outside around the cabin. So this ghost has got a wardrobe. Yeah. Our cabin isn't very big, around 170 square metres, with no hidden corners, so it's strange that she saw someone that couldn't have possibly been there. So far, no-one else has seen anything like this, and we're not sure what to think could this be a friendly spirit should we just ignore it since it hasn't
Starting point is 00:34:51 caused any harm what's curious if anyone was curious if anyone else had a similar experience or is or if they have any advice on what we should do. Thanks in advance for any thoughts or suggestions. Go. What's your advice? Except... I told you, burn it. But burning's not an option, so... But what were they doing?
Starting point is 00:35:22 Walking around the cabin. Walking around. Right. In his fancy dress. In his many outfits. I mean, would that potentially mean there's two of them if they were wearing different things? This is what... Actually changed clothes?
Starting point is 00:35:36 I've never heard that before, so I'm grasping two in my mind. I'm not... I didn't like that. I do you like that I didn't like that what happened it's alright moving on he's come here to visit us the door vibrated
Starting point is 00:35:58 honestly it really shook it's October babe right let me read you the comment go on so i'm first comment is what do you mean by figure outside couldn't have possibly been there why like why are you saying it couldn't have possibly been there personally if it looks like a real human and it is outside I chalk it up to have happenance maybe there was someone actually there a normal human yeah okay yeah the the one inside in the suit however is pretty creepy but as you've said hasn't really caused any
Starting point is 00:36:41 harm or bothered anyone it sounds like flickering lights and microwaves were probably just electrical issues that you fixed overall based on your description i'd leave be show it respect and just keep enjoying your place it seems like a well-mannered spirit that that dresses well uh that really minds its own business for the most part maybe just say hello and goodbye tell that no tell that it can use the place why you're gone etc whatever you are comfortable with but i wouldn't poke at it unless you want to be poked back my you don't need to say my ultimate need yeah you're gonna hear the whole month of october i'm saying the same thing mind your business if you're gonna just be let's ignore it let it be
Starting point is 00:37:34 let it fucking be we don't need to be going all right mate you want a cup of tea yeah you'll find you'll find interacting and poking poking the bear is how it's going to latch it's going to grow in strength and how it's going to bother you more mind your business if you hear something you see something no you did not yeah and if it's not actually touching anything moving or you yeah just let it float about from one side of the room to the other if If you've got a flickering light. Fix it like you've been doing. Yeah. And mind your business. As far as the one outside.
Starting point is 00:38:08 I don't know. So OP. Responds to the comment. It says. The person outside just disappeared. Surrounding the house in. Fairly flat green. I don't know what that means.
Starting point is 00:38:21 It's basically impossible. To leave a walk towards the property. Without being seen. So fairly flat. So it was just. It's basically impossible to leave or walk towards the property without being seen. So fairly flat. So it's just flat, so there's no real... Hills. Hills or bushes or anything for it to disappear behind or into. Without knowing, we always say hello and goodbye when we leave. Mind your business, brother.
Starting point is 00:38:40 Just because. Thanks for your response. Yes. Better just leave it. Live and let live you don't know who that lands belong to way back when right you don't know everywhere you live everywhere you go there's always a pass to that location 100 and that is why you don't acknowledge you don't you just continue in it because you can just stir up shit and best for you that it's just a nice quiet spirit rather than excuse me a demonic
Starting point is 00:39:17 presence that is going to cause you problems no matter what you do goading you into acknowledgement what you do goading you into acknowledgement so i say live and let live and that is my second lovely little story for you to sleep well tonight go my darling all right so i'm not sure if this is a i don't think this is a ghost story okay but it is under scary stories great okay yeah so this one is true story of being held hostage by a strange man or should i save this one for another time and have you proofread it no so you don't know how good it is? It's a little bit long. I think read it. I think read it.
Starting point is 00:40:08 It's too late now. You told us the... We don't want to wait for it. It's alright. I can cut it out. Yeah, I can cut it out. No, I say go for it. Right, so we're going with it.
Starting point is 00:40:17 So. The creepiest thing, I mean the thing that kept me up most nights was the dog. Oh, this already sounds like a bit of a story rather than a... But it says true story. Babe, it's freak month. So crack on. Freak. Freak.
Starting point is 00:40:39 Bizarrely, this happened with soulless eyes. This just stared at me all the fucking time i couldn't do anything about it it unblinking eyes glowed in the dark making damn sure i always knew there were they were on me nice that's a weird way to start your story well straight to the point fucking hell i mean obviously that wasn't the scariest or oddest thing but it's definitely the thing that i remember the most my therapist said you've never heard of anyone with such a horrendous experience he's been helping me with the nightmares but can't believe how much I had endured and No kidding! Oh, it's always her! It's okay! Damn it, Gabe! No kidding!
Starting point is 00:41:46 Anyway, the first few nights I was there. So just remember, this person's been kidnapped. What? You've gone straight into the story. No, I'm done. Not even how they get kidnapped, they're kidnapped. Right, so we've gone from I've seen spooky eyes and now they're kidnapped. True story of being held hostage by a strange man.
Starting point is 00:42:08 That's the title. Okay. So he's telling you about when he was being held hostage. But we don't know if this man is a ghost or a human. Well, there's a dog with no blinking eyes, so I'm not really sure. Okay, go. Glad you didn't save it. What a letdown. Go on. No, we don't know sake. Okay, go. Glad you didn't save it. What a letdown.
Starting point is 00:42:28 Go on. No, we don't know yet. Okay, sorry. Shh. Anyway. Yeah, the first few nights I was there I was in constant agony. When that freak attacked me, he broke my arm and severely damaged my hip. I couldn't move for
Starting point is 00:42:44 days. Every twist or turn sent these massive lightning bolts of pain up and down my body. I couldn't believe someone could go through so much pain. What's worse, when my arm did finally heal, it didn't heal correctly. So a doctor had to re-break it after the whole thing and reset it so I could heal properly. You'd been drugged up for that. You'd hope. No, you would be. You would hope.
Starting point is 00:43:11 My new hip is okay, but I can't believe someone so young like me would have to get a new hip. I can totally imagine that must have been hard. It's like they're talking to somebody. I'm about to get my violin out and start playing it. It was hard. I mean, I knew the guy and everything from back in school. He was so awkward and apparently he was totally obsessed with me. He thought we were supposed to be best friends or something. It was insane. Sounds insane, honestly.
Starting point is 00:43:49 The freak was into all this weird taxidermy stuff. I don't know what taxidermy is. Well, it's animals. Yes, that's taxidermy. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like Jeffrey Dahmer. I was like, I know what that that is but he was awful with it no wonder he fucking kidnapped him
Starting point is 00:44:12 we're not being very compassionate yeah go on and had all these poorly done stuffed animals and road kills scattered throughout his basement where he kept me captive the stuffing was so bad it made me look like it made them look like Jerry stop it! There's no other dog being blimpy! Oh! Oooh! Made them look like cartoon versions of the animals and not actual representations.
Starting point is 00:44:54 It's like the mask dog! He tried to put smiles on all of them which I don't know what... What the fuck is this story? It made them look more menacing there was a brief a very brief pause they are actually talking about this conversation with somebody else anyway after maybe a week or two i couldn't be sure i could hear him doing some work upstairs it was incredibly loud it sounded like he was using some kind of table saw and there was some strange hammering. Finally one day I could hear the doorbell ring
Starting point is 00:45:34 and he went to answer it. I tried screaming for help but I was still pretty weak. He hardly fed me anything. I did hear the delivery guy ask him what the noise was But the freak tried playing it off like it was the TV That's scary If this is real we just lost ten minutes It did say that it was such a true story Sorry, okay
Starting point is 00:46:02 We laugh because we're nervous. Okay. I mean, she's lying, but okay. Yeah, if you have no idea, that freak opened the door to the basement and carried down what the delivery guy had just dropped off. It was this massive box that was taller than he was. Even though it was big enough, that was taller than he was even though it was big enough that freak had no trouble moving it down and setting it up on the opposite side of the room
Starting point is 00:46:34 next to the mutant stuffed dog that kept torch over me wow what's that? But what was What was in the box? I didn't see right away He kept it closed But went back upstairs Later that night he came back down With some measuring tape I thought he was going to measure something From the box, but instead
Starting point is 00:47:00 He came up to me and started measuring me What the fuck? Did we just go same place? Yeah, she's going to back to Dermio Beach. We did just do that. I thought he was going to measure something from the box, but instead he came up and started measuring me. He held the tape up to arm and then my leg and torso
Starting point is 00:47:24 and then finally my whole body. it scared the hell out of me the man removed his glasses that i had intentionally initially i had initially politely complimented him on and he held the bridge of his nose with his right hand he then made his exaggerating sighing noise. Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaavavavavavavavava about all this stuff. Anyway, it's obvious why he was measuring me. The next morning, he came downstairs and opened the box. It was a massive delivery of cotton. I started crying and screaming when I saw it. I tried begging him not to hurt me, but he just started singing these odd lullabies to me. I thought I was dead for sure. Another pause happened but I couldn't be so be so sure. Finally I saw flashing and red and blue lights stream in front of the
Starting point is 00:48:35 tiny window at the top of the ceiling. It was the police. Apparently the delivery guy from yesterday had called the cops they came by the previous day yeah but i had passed out and the freak had answered the door he made them really suspicious so they came by again the next day after realizing one of the cars parked in in garage was registered to me who had been missing for over three weeks that's wild and this is true i know the police couldn't believe how finally i see jim my specialist walk in and smile at me he wipes his hands on his coveralls before speaking good news mr smith your car is ready wasn't too bad if you want to come with me over to the front we can take care of the bill finally sweet escape is this how did that just fucking end the car's fixed i feel like this is a made-up story or it's
Starting point is 00:49:50 missing loads of context because it's it's jumping true story true story i apologize for that one i also thought it was a woman i thought it was a woman as well. So I don't know who it is. Don't apologise because it's entertaining to me. And to the OP... The taxi-danny person. Yeah, come round. To the person... If this is a true story and the OP really is somebody...
Starting point is 00:50:22 I really apologise for laughing. I don't. But I think it's because we're missing context, segments of the story. There's no comments either, is there? No. Because I feel like it kind of jumps everywhere. Oh, my God.
Starting point is 00:50:38 What? So I just clicked on the person who who posted it so what hi everyone this is my first attempt at writing a story it was an assignment that i had from college yeah well you missed it i was pretty proud of it oh Oh. Let me know how I can improve. I'm thinking of getting more into the writing. Okay. So you missed loads of segments of the story, right? And it was a bit here, there and everywhere. And then you finished it really randomly with some car being fixed.
Starting point is 00:51:21 That led to the story in no way whatsoever, i mean i don't know i don't really understand what the actual i feel like i was getting it with the taxidermy then he's like and then the car was fixed yeah through me so uh moving on. It had potential. It did have potential. I was getting into it after the laughing at the beginning. Then we were getting into it when he started measuring up the body. You actually felt guilty because you laughed. Yeah. Then the police came and then his car got fixed.
Starting point is 00:51:57 So, I was slightly confused. I'm not going to lie. I won't lie. I won't lie to you. I won't lie. We're gonna move swiftly on. Yeah please do. There may be a mimic in our house. No! Yeah, I chose this specifically for you. And their car got fixed. Right, this is somebody's experience, so... Okay. There may be a mimic in our house.
Starting point is 00:52:30 Not at... In the house. In the house. In the house. Not at all familiar with the supernatural, if this is indeed what we are dealing with, which is the explanation that we're leaning towards. Burn it. The whole house.
Starting point is 00:52:49 Get out, burn it. I mean, so far there's a lot of fires. Burn it, burn it, burn it, burn it. Okay. So this started with my boyfriend. When my boyfriend was over yesterday, he had picked me up from work and I went and got in the shower. I was drying off when he opened the door and handed me my underwear. I told him that I appreciate the gesture, but I had underwear in the bathroom already.
Starting point is 00:53:16 He also jokingly snapped at me. You better freaking call me from downstairs to bring you these you better take them women I assumed he was joking so I just took the panties from him and told him to go back downstairs didn't think much of it. Next thing that happened was a couple of hours later my roommate was getting ready to leave for a date with one of her friends when I heard her calling me from the bedroom to help sip her dress. I totted over to her bedroom to find nobody there. Not only that, but when she was leaving the bathroom, she was wearing jeans and a tank top. Nothing that I would have had to sit. I told her that I heard her voice coming from the bedroom. She looked confused. She went in and looked around. Her TV was off, her computer was off and there was nothing in her room. The next bit came around 11pm. My boyfriend and I had been watching Netflix and I had a craving for some ice cream
Starting point is 00:54:37 so we drove to go and get some ice cream. After the ice cream, we sat and watched acoustic show for about an hour and a half before heading home. When we got home, we went into the bedroom and fell asleep watching TV. We woke up around 7am when we had to leave for work. My roommate was already up and made a joke that we must have had really been going at it the way that we were shrieking last night. We did not have sex that night in question. I didn't know what she was talking about. When we were alone, we discussed what had happened. I initially wanted to draw the strange conclusion based on what was happening the underwear thing the dress the shrieking she's a big believer in that kind
Starting point is 00:55:34 of stuff so she seemed open to the fact the last bit of witness came when we were doing our evening meditation both with him and we heard speaking from the hallway it was between the two of us we broke concentration and listened i'm not done so i considered it was an intruder then clear as day through the door we hear night yaw at in the high pitch giggle both of these things is what my roommate does and says when she passes my room when i'm with my boyfriend at night we listen stage throughout the house while saying a prayer i'm not sure yeah I'm not sure if that'll do any good we also want to have the house tested for carbon monoxide and mold so they're going rational as well and and it's totally cool if you read
Starting point is 00:56:37 this and you don't buy into it because I'm not like 100% sure that I do either. Edit, no carbon monoxide detected in the home, relieved. As of right now, we haven't experienced any other phenomenas that we have taken note of, but we are still on high alert. Maybe that staging helped, but I'm not being funny. If you and your roommate or flatmate were in the same room together and then you heard yourselves talking outside i'd like move out it's a no for me i would definitely move out
Starting point is 00:57:14 um somebody said there are several entities that can mimic and they they tend to hang around people who are welcoming them into the house and that's why i have resting bitch face it could be a demonic or a skinwalker no thank you if you have an animal in the house odds are it's shifting into whatever animal you have they're hiding skin walkers are never joes who are believed to have the ability to shape shift into animals i'm going to throw all of mine away and mimic the voices of people they also tend to remain hidden and avoid contact the only way someone can have a skinwalker on their ass is if they have angered one and is now stalking them the demon thing however is easier to deal with the skinwalker not so much seeing seeing as it's essential a human using physics to alter their appearance ps you're all dead no burn it i mean i'd be completely freaked out people are saying skinwalker
Starting point is 00:58:33 she did the carbon monoxide and mold it's all clear so uh i like that they went for rational as well. Yeah. Sensible. I would have been with them. Yeah, let's do that. But I wouldn't have. If I had heard my own voice... If we were sitting here... If that was happening right now, I'd be going out that door.
Starting point is 00:58:54 So would I be coming with you? Bye, kids. Have fun at uni. Good luck. Call me. Yeah, yeah. Let me know. Peace.
Starting point is 00:59:02 Fucking hell. No. Yeah, no. Yeah. How long did they sit in that room? Because I've been going out there. let me know no yeah no yeah and do you how long did they sit in that room because I don't know
Starting point is 00:59:08 that door was closed forever I have never you can you can overlook things like I thought I heard you call me
Starting point is 00:59:17 yeah yeah silly stuff like did you call me no but if I'm sitting in a room and we're having a conversation
Starting point is 00:59:23 in the hall I know I'm the real Ellie you know you're the emily there's some there's a there's a problem yeah there's a massive problem you know what sometimes since reading rubbish like this i call it rubbish like this but sometimes i look at my dog i'm like you better not be a mimic i mean she ain't got no energy to be in that one i do because I've read this stuff I'm now like you better not I mean the thing is invited you in my home we there's so much unknown right and I'm definitely a believer of um paranormal aliens all of that and like I say so many times there's aspects of it I do believe and aspects i don't
Starting point is 01:00:06 believe yeah i think if you're opening yourself up to this stuff or you engage it definitely will make it worse i mean that's from that's even from um you know the conjuring and all that sort of thing like all those things that i watch it kind of shows that the more you engage, the more it saps from you, especially evil entities. But I also believe that sometimes there are spiritual and entities that you're just a normal person and they've decided you are the one they're coming for. Are skinwalkers always bad? So I am still learning about the skinwalkers right and i'm learning i've like watching a lot on the appellation meltins i send you stuff sometimes um don't watch it because from my from my i don't know if skinwalkers are mimics i mean some people say they're different some
Starting point is 01:01:02 people say they're the same i can't imagine anything being called a skinwalker is anything but a negative. It sounds... What is it that they want, though? Because nobody ever... Is it to get you, to mimic you, to portray you in the world? Is it a takeover? To me, that feels like demonic. So what would a mimic be that's what i'm saying is
Starting point is 01:01:27 what would be the difference and what are the intentions yeah it's almost a little bit alien isn't it yeah i don't know because before this that's all pretty new in my opinion these skinwalkers and mimics and all that it's not something i ever it's not something i've ever watched either in a horror it's really very demonic it is a film and because i'm fucking scared oh okay so it's not funny well me i'm warm as yeah you're right you're just having the best time it's gonna be the best month ever um there is a film and i've it's i've seen it on you know like on little clips of tiktok or whatever i was watching but it literally it what i watched was
Starting point is 01:02:24 a man and woman and they've been invited around their neighbor's house possibly i'm not sure and they are literally trying to mimic copy what these man and woman's doing your that is a new film it is new yes and it hasn't as it is either been released or i haven't watched it this is weird weird. And then they told him to get out. And then they're like, no. And then they're like, get out of my house. And then the mimicking guy got mad and then was just like, oh. I know exactly what you're talking about.
Starting point is 01:02:59 Yeah, I do. And then I'm like, nope, ain't watching that. I definitely wasn't watching that. I watched enough. And then I'm like, nope, ain't watching that. I definitely wouldn't be watching that. I've watched enough. I think... They were really asking personal questions.
Starting point is 01:03:10 Do you know, unless... Right, so unless... This is a far out theory that I'm just coming up with on the spot. Unless this is a newfound way of demonic taking people right so because obviously think about the way technology and everything is moving forward and everything that we know
Starting point is 01:03:33 about don't get complicated with it okay so everything that we know about demonic procession all that sort of thing is now what pretty old school so maybe this is a new way it works right don't be changing your things so maybe this is a new way of demonic spirits to fuck with us because what is scarier than not knowing whether your dog's your dog or your catch your cat or
Starting point is 01:04:02 your mate your mate do you see what i'm saying that is a far out theory that just came to me and I'm like maybe this is the new way of them fucking with us because it's all a big fucking game right I hate you sometimes I didn't do it you're just making my brain hurt
Starting point is 01:04:21 and I've been busy today do you see where I'm coming from though yes and I hate it that I understand what you're saying let us know if you agree huh I might have to look into it a bit more yeah it is it's it's that um that growth that I can't even think because my head hurts. I know what you're trying to say. That evolution. It's the evolution of the spiritual world. Yes.
Starting point is 01:04:55 Potentially because of the pollution, because of all the other bullshit. Yeah, because of the way that we're online. We live on online. We're not interacting like we used to. So now how can I fuck with you? I'm going to mimic you. I i'm gonna mimic those you love and then i'm gonna take home for you bit of a scary thing i've actually got ghost people's my face you're not you're just bit of a scary girl i'm finished we've got another all right i'm doing

Starting point is 01:05:49 This one was also found on Scary Stories on Reddit. Okay. Most horrifying sleepwalking experience. Okay. I mean, that can be scary, the whole sleepwalking thing. I didn't think you remembered. Sleepwalking always just reminds me of stepbrothers love stepbrothers have you ever slept walk that you know I don't
Starting point is 01:06:10 think so I don't think I have I only know I've only ever had one experience of it and that was my husband who is fairly drunk as well and we were at my parents house and he literally got up and I was like where are you going who is fairly drunk as well, and we were at my parents' house, and he literally got up, and I was like, where are you going? And he's like, yeah, I'm like, are you okay? Because he literally just bolted up.
Starting point is 01:06:33 What you could do is fall down those stairs down here. That didn't happen. If only you knew. He took the next turn. If he'd took the first turn, he would have been the stairs. Right. He took the next turn.
Starting point is 01:06:43 I'm visualising the very top of your mum desk. So you come out of my room yeah you'd have the stairs yeah my brother's room and directly in front would be the bathroom yeah so instead of walking directly forward to go to the bathroom he turned into my brother's room right where he went pulled down his trousers and sat on adam's bed and i was like and i was like what are you doing mate and he was like and i got him in the bathroom and then like we're laughing because you're in shock as well you're like what yeah but that happened did he wake i don't i don't know if he did you know yeah he Yeah, because they say you're not meant to sleep. He seemed startled. But then I just led him out and then into the bathroom. And he then went and then got back into bed. So maybe he was still asleep during the whole process.
Starting point is 01:07:35 Yeah. No, he did sleep talk a lot. And, I mean, one of the best ones. I sleep talk, I know that. One of the best ones, yeah. I mean, he was bad in his sleep. He was like this, away from punching my face, because he literally went in his sleep.
Starting point is 01:07:50 Oh, my God. I don't think it was intentional. It was definitely intentional. I don't think it was intentional. But at that time, they were all right. Yeah, he scared me at that point, because I was like, oh, my God, you nearly punched me. Yeah, yeah.
Starting point is 01:08:02 No, it is, yeah, yeah. But the best one, and I remember it, because it just made me chuckle so much. He was laying on his back and his arms went up like this. And I'm looking, thinking. Did you wake up instantly or you were awake? I'm a light sleeper when I've, he moved too much. So his arms, I looked at him and he went,h shh here's your pint shh don't tell them shh he's pouring pints in his sleeve in his sleeve my god not just nicking him he's like shh
Starting point is 01:08:38 don't tell him he wants to get a life mate i'm telling you it was the best sort of sleep talk when you told him did he believe you he was like what do you remember a dream he was just like no Paul says
Starting point is 01:08:52 I talk in my sleep Harry doesn't Alfie does massively talks in his sleep you can hear him my youngest talks a lot
Starting point is 01:09:00 I'm just like that and a mover I'm definitely a mover in my sleep I don't get up and walk round but sometimes I'll be at the other end see I don't move up. I'm definitely a mover in myself. I don't get up and walk round but sometimes I'll be at the other end. See I don't move a lot. I'm assuming it's because I've always got leg ache. Like especially at the moment I've got really bad leg ache.
Starting point is 01:09:15 No I mean I didn't sleep last night but I felt I don't know I felt really uncomfortable last night. Yeah it's annoying when that happens. When you finally get comfortable and then your alarm goes off. Yeah that is literally what happened, yeah. And then I sort of closed my eyes and I'm like, guys, I've got to get up now. Go on. Most horrifying sleepwalking experience. We have a two-storey house in a small town in India. So this happened about 10 years back on a very normal night.
Starting point is 01:10:09 So this happened about 10 years back on a very normal night. Nothing unusual was going on and I went to sleep at around 11. We used nets to keep mosquitoes and bugs away while sleeping. I sat upright in a weird state of paralysis when I couldn't control my body and even my eyes. I have a perfectly normal vision but that night it was all blurry as if my eyes lost their ability to focus on anything. I lifted the net to get out of my bed and followed the voice mindlessly as I couldn't stop myself. Halfway down the stairs I tried my best to try my best and somehow kicked the rails beside the stairs and the and I think that's Joel and the jolt of pain immediately brought me back to my senses it was a crazy experience as if someone else had the remote control of your motor functions had the remote control of your motor functions later next morning i asked my mum if she actually called me or heard anything and she didn't the next night onwards i used to hang a small metal cup with a thin string which would wake me up if i ever slept walked again
Starting point is 01:11:22 random but that was it yeah so she's, did I sleep walk or did something take control of my body? I don't know. I don't know. It's a bit bizarre, isn't it? Yeah. To hear someone calling. Especially since she is aware of what happened. Yeah. That doesn't sound like sleepwalking to me.
Starting point is 01:11:42 So she says paralysis. That's what I'm saying. But paralysis and then something taking control of her like a puppet. Yeah. What are the comments? I mean, there is only one and that was, oh my God. You wrote that? Oh my God.
Starting point is 01:11:58 Oh my God. Burn it. Burn it. Get out of that house, burn it. Yeah, I don't know if that is something fucking with her yeah i think when you're in that situation it must have been terrifying absolutely but i've never heard of anyone sleep i mean people can tell us but as far as i'm aware when you're sleepwalking you're not aware of that you're not aware no and you don't remember that no but people
Starting point is 01:12:23 around you go oh you slept and we just guided you back to bed never have I heard anyone go this is what happened that feels like something took control of her body like a puppet on a string whereas she was aware but completely out of control
Starting point is 01:12:38 and that she was moving to her mother's voice but it weren't her mum. It's like, I didn't call you when I was eight. So I'd keep an eye on that. It's not a nice one, is it? Bit of a red flag to me. Bit of a worry.
Starting point is 01:12:54 I know, right? But interesting. Yeah, I don't think it was sleepwalking. It doesn't sound like sleepwalking. It doesn't feel like sleepwalking either. My skin is saying, it is. It's not, it's not. It's falling. Right, so let's end with this one. Okay. Okay scary experience. This is unexplained. So I feel this could have been paranormal or alien. My partner thinks demonic. My partner isn't scared easily last night around either last year
Starting point is 01:13:27 you're not a soul last night around 2 a.m. he went out to grab the washing we left or we left out while I said our baby You're a fucking bitch! You're a fucking...

Starting point is 01:17:30 port. But when he finally spoke, he said something was outside. I asked him what he meant. And he said he felt like something was watching him. He looked, he looked up to see something in the darkness, taking a close look, waiting for his eyes to adjust. he saw a figure towering over the fence in the UK. These are like six foot or seven foot plus fences with large it had large shoulders swaying or pacing. Out your house waiting for you now when you get out your car tonight what was even creepier is the fact that he said he couldn't see ahead just two pipes with white tips i don't know what that means like a white light was reflecting off the top of it has anyone experienced this before or seen anything similar? Description? Terrified? People are, she's terrified. Have you seen anything like it?
Starting point is 01:18:39 What do you think of that? I don't understand what it looks, I don't understand what it looks like. I don't really understand. Swaying or pacing shoulders was creeping uh blah blah blah two yeah two it says two pipes with white tips i don't know i feel like pipes is the wrong word white tips of what like spears like a white light reflecting off the top I don't really know I know that it scared the man enough I'm trying to see if I please written I'm from the UK and it was very windy last night are you sure something didn't fly from next door good shout but the wind didn't pick up today this is this that sounds really unsettling it would be worth checking if there are any logical

I don't know. Ooh.

I don't know if I actually want to know what this looks like. They can be black too or look like a human. The stories shown looking at them are like two feet away will make you go crazy. I forget the Japanese name. Wiggle or waver. Japanese creature.
