That's obviously Ash. That's obviously not. That's obviously not. Ash is with us. No, it is not Ash. You guys can tell we have Shina Melwani and Trid in the house today. Last time we were here, you had a button that clapped.

This time I'll clap for myself. We did. We still have a button, but I never know which button it is. That's a way. So I could hit something, but it might be like, let's do it. Let's do it. Yeah. Let's try. Let's hit a button. I don't think it's. We're not wearing headphones.

So you tell us what happened. I don't think anything happened. It's just going to be like dead air. I'll insert something really great. Perfect. Any sound here. Like, or something.

Oh, yes. Woozy las. I like those. There you go. I've, oh, I forgot what those were called. Boo Boo's, what is it? I, that's bobo bobo. Or something. Oh, yes. Woo-woo-z-las. There you go. I forgot what those were called. Boo-woo-z-las. What is it?

I don't know, though. Maybe this is just confirmation bias, and I'm like, yeah, totally. What he said. I think that's what it is. It's like a what he said thing. Yeah, he says it and I'm like, that sounds right. I like that? I think that's what it is. It's like a what he said thing. Yeah, he says it and I'm like, that sounds right. I like that.

He does that with a lot of confidence and then you believe him. That's what it is. He's got the entire internet fooled. Absolutely. And I immediately was one of those people as soon as I came across your video on TikTok, I was like, I believe everything you say.

Him, not me. No, I never believed anything. Nobody believes me, but I'm actually the one who speaks all the truth. but no one believes. But no, everyone's like, yeah, those are. He actually saw it. Zilla search for boo boo Zilla. That's sound brought to you by Google.

There you go. That's not a pop up. I know that's the wrong instrument. That is different because those are more like what he said. It was confidence. So you believed him. I did. And I still kind of do.

You're good. Probably enough. I haven't even forgotten yet. Like, you know what? Yeah, that's what it is. But yeah, you guys, I'm sure you guys know who Shina Moellani and Trid is. And if you don't go on TikTok.

But I still don't get that, but I love it. I've decided to call Sheena a beautiful luna moth because luna moths are beautiful.

It really is a very interesting looking creature. They're unique. Yes. They're pretty delicate. I feel like they sparkle without actually sparkling, which is like you. I don't know. Like you're not fully made out of glitter, but I feel like you sparkle without actually sparkling, which is like you. I don't know. Like, you're not fully made out of glitter,

but I feel like you are glittery. Should I just come back and pick her up in an hour? You also have fun with this. I actually are you. But that's my skincare routine. But you're like actually fully glittery. Yes, because I'm, you're glowing today. Because I have an emoji.

He's an actual, I always look. Right now, like, it's an emoji. He's an actual. I always look It's an emoji disco ball. Why are you glowing today? What is happening? It's my aura. It's your aura. I'm a special person. Yes. I am I actually Rubbed a pregnant woman's tummy this morning. That'll do it. Yeah, that's contagious. It doesn't punch you in the face. It was, she was asking for that. Oh good, okay. Yeah.

Consent. Why do people do that? I never like twin people do that. No, me neither. They just come out. And they touch your stomach and they're like, oh, can I touch you? You're already touching me. You're already here. Yeah.

I don't know what to do here. When I was pregnant with the twins, I was so gigantic that everyone felt like they really had like license to do that. With both hands. Yeah. And license to be like, oh, are you like ready to pop? And I was like, no, I'm only five months pregnant. Thank you for asking that.

Oh, that's kind. You should rub people's heads. Yeah. Pregnant women out there, you are allowed to rub the person rubbing you right back. Like they're all heads? If they're bald, double points. But you just rub their head. Whatever's up there is rough.

Anything you just rubbed. Like, oh, you rub me, I rub you. And they say, why are you shaking my, why are you rubbing my head? Why are you rubbing my stomach? Yeah. The best thing would be like, why are you rubbing my stomach? I'm not pregnant. Yeah.

Oh, that is. Yeah. Just make them super uncomfortable. Like, what are you doing? Like, what are you doing? Because that will be something they think about in their final hour. They will be like, over that time, that rough, that woman's stomach. Beast lady, who was stealing basketballs at Dix and a rubbed her stomach.

Rubbed her stomach and she told me she wasn't pregnant. Like that'll sting. And then she rubbed my head. Yeah, that's the ultimate. That's the way to ruin someone. That really is. That's why I to ruin someone. That really is. That's why I come on the show. That is.

We get to talk about how to rub people the wrong way. Life-ruining moments. Yes. Excellent. I actually like trips. But you know what? We should talk about a little bit. Disney.

Oh, your favorite place. You're going to Disney. It's a very exciting place. I've got to tip the most magical place on earth as far as I'm concerned. I mean, I actually wanted to ask you if you wanted to come with us. Yeah. You know what? I do, I need to do a redo because that was not a great experience, I think.

I heard you did more laundry in Disney than you have in your own house in a month. Yeah. At one point, we broke the the drive. Come on. But not in a good way the in the middle of the night When ever is it a good way that you would break a tire? Please do not filled with vomit. Yeah, that is better But anything is better than they broke it. That's definitely not going to keep it clean on this show

Because I know they yeah, there's a g-rated show she It is we don't know nothing. They only talk about Disney Land. That's all, that's what this podcast is. It's a Disney podcast. They're your official sponsors. Yeah, official sponsors Disney. I'm wearing ears right now. That's amazing.

If Ash was here, she would be, it would be half true. She was, she had, I love her, because she was just like, she fully committed to the dancing. I love that, that's how I expect to go. I want to expect to do it. But I also have that, like I really appreciated what you were saying about, like just seeing Disney through your kids eyes. Yes.

And I think that's a whole different thing. It is. See, really, when you go as a parent, you kind of put all your own stuff aside. Yup. And you just go and you love it. Because you see the world through your children's eyes. And even when you're sweating and there's a million people slamming into you and it smells

weird and you're like, why am I here? I hate the everything's pastel and I'm like, oh god. I don't know what you're saying. It's bearing down on me. And then we went into the little Bippity, Boppity, Boutique and the girls were just like blown away that they got to go into Cinderella's castle to get their hair done.

I was like, all right, this is all right. Like, I was like, this is great. You know what makes me happy that all of those moments they enjoy being princesses comes from John. Yes. One hundred. That makes me happy. Because it's certainly not coming from you.

You blackmailed. I'm here. I don't know where I get. John loves it too. You were fully invested in it. Where is that guy? He's my hero. I thought he was going to be here.

You trick me. I should not hear. All the Disney people have evacuated the building. Yeah, they left more tissue in their place to talk about Disney. We love it. I mean, I'm here to add a little little spice. That's all.

Yeah. We're gonna redo Disney. We're gonna do it right. John, John is like absolutely determined to do Disney. Like I can't- Where you like it. Yeah, he was like, we're gonna make this like a different experience. Just to do Disney. Like, I think where you like it. Yeah, he was like, we're gonna make this. We're gonna do this. Go on October.

Yeah, there you go. They'll be some. They'll be some spooky Disney. For sure. I did do the Pirates of the Caribbean ride and there's a big drop and I was proud of myself. For sure, yes. I survived the drop.

I sold it in my three-year-old. So it was like, four seconds. Wait, it was like, it was a good drop. At the end of it, I was like, seconds. It was like, it was a good drop at the end of it. I was like, because Drew told us, you know, he's been there like a million times. So Drew is our like unofficial tour guide and would tell us if certain rides were okay

for the kids or, you know, this one has a drop. I don't know if you'll like it. And that one, he was like, there is a drop but it's really small. And we can handle it. And we can handle it. I looked back at him and I was like, you son of a bitch, that was a big drop. He was like, it really really small. And you can handle it. I looked back at him and I was like, you son of a bitch.

That was a big drop. He was like, it really wasn't. That really wasn't. In the official Disney photo, she's looking back. I'm just looking at you. The kids are all smiling. Everyone else is like, yeah, they're like son of a bitch. And they're booster sheets. Yeah.

Let me tell you all of them are white, but not after my family was there. You know what? You would have enjoyed, if you would have found a tunnel that took you to the Disney Underworld. Yes. To show you how all this happens. Any Underworld would have been... You would have enjoyed it. You would have seen like stains on the wall and people running, screaming.

Yeah. Where the hell is that Cinderella? She's due in this castle in four minutes. And then you see some high school girl running, streaming. Hey, where the hell is that Cinderella? She's due in this castle in four minutes. And then you see some high school girl running, putting on a slipper. This is not even the first thing. No, you have to embrace. You have to embrace.

Up where they walk, up where they run, up where they stale day in the sun, wondering free, wish I could be part of that world world just embrace it. What did that come from? What does happen here real quick? What does happen somehow swam out with no water? I don't know what just happens. That was a real special treat. Disney trick. I wanted to be a Disney princess. You should be a different. Not not Jasmine. Not the red-headed Ariel. Why would I be? Why be Jasmine when you can be Ariel.

I want to be a ginger. I feel that. Who doesn't want to be a ginger? Not me. I don't just say. I promise people it was going to get weird in here. It's going to get weird. All right, let's do it. Okay, now that you've got her, I'll bubbly with her Disney songs. Tell her what we're gonna be talking about

You know she's a friend right you know she will not watch yeah a horror movie. She will not watch anything I won't even watch like I love it. You know what's that the they made like a joke like a smooch off of like scream Oh, yeah scary movie. Yeah, I won't watch that and those are hilarious. I know, but I won't watch it All right, tell us a story all right, so listener tail time and this one is a themed episode and Deb Deb has found haunted hospitals Oh, why because Hospitals are just fun places otherwise. They're not sad enough and scary enough.

That's all the sadness. Where do you think ghosts go to heal? To heal. They need hospitals too. Yeah, there we go. It's true. Hospitals are spooky. Take it from someone who worked in a morgan hospital overnight many times.

It's a creepy place. Why is that not surprising to me? Yeah. A morgan. You know, it's funny to all the Why is that not surprising to me? Yeah. A morgue. You know, it's funny to all the nurses would come down when they would have to come down. They hated coming down to the morgue. And they would come down in the middle of the night

and every single time they'd always go, are you just a loan down here? And I was like, yeah. And they'd be like, are you okay? And I was like, yeah, I'm fine. And they're like, I couldn't do that. And they just leave, like, they were just like, you're horrifying.

I have to go. All of them were just fine. And they're like, I couldn't do that. And they just leave, like, they were just like, you're horrifying. I have to go like all of them. You just like the horrifying every time. Is anyone listening? Surprise. Except for all these people. Do you know what the more I'm like for me, the more is like underneath Disney. Yeah, it's essentially that.

And then you're happy about it. Yeah, it was great. It was very, very, very, very peaceful in there. Yeah. Just talk to people. They're dead. Yeah, they can talk back to you Only once in a while. My favorite kind of Interaction is just like I can just sit there and talk and no one no small talk. We're good

pass Actually in the middle of the night pass The only problem with the morgue in the middle of the night as if you do get a weird Like visual in your head, like we had one that was a pretty gnarly one. And so it kind of shook me for a second when they came in. And I was sitting in the office and I just kept thinking about what if they just stood up and walked in here. And then I kept getting this weird vision of them just standing up and walking in and a body bag into the office.

Oh my god. That wasn't great. That would be exactly what I'd need to run for the hills. Yeah, that was not great. Never come back. So I just kept having to go in there and peak. I mean, it was a move. Right, you're still dead. Right, you're still dead.

Still dead. Yeah. Is that why they put locks on those freezers? Yeah. And could they try to get up and come out? They can't come out. Yeah. Because sometimes this is little known.

But sometimes they're like, just lock them in there. Yeah, we don't we don't want to. We're not sure. Because they get up sometimes. But let's just throw them in. Can we move on? They like sometimes. Like zombies are real. They go on the haunted hospitals. That's where you put them in the freezer. I'm never going down to a morgue ever.

It's a it's a place. Yeah, it's got a vibe. It's got a smell. They should put it right on the top floor. It's a place. Yeah. It's got a vibe. It's got a smell. They should put it right on the top floor. It has a smell too. Yeah, and it's not like a dead body smell, but it's like got a very like chemical smell. Like mothballs. Yeah, there's a lot of like different preservatives.

Preservatives go on me. Yeah. The same thing that they put. The sweet and you get a different kind of smell. That's for sure. But if you're in there, you should have your face covered. I wish you guys could see my face. Yeah.

She's smiling. She's like, I just want to see that. She's just eating hummus and which. Yeah. It's fine. Alright, so my first one I'll do is called pediatric nurse gets more than she bargained for. I don't love ghost kids.

So this is going to be challenging. But this one says, yeah, I don't love a ghost kid. Why? Because one, like they're always giggling, which is weird. Yeah, we're like doing some or singing. I don't love like a singing child ghost. That's not really my company. You should be a equal opportunity ghost lover. I'm not going to turn you away. But like you're not going to be my favorite. You're not going to be employee of a equal opportunity goes. I'm not gonna turn you away, but you're not gonna be my favorite. You're not gonna be employee of the month over here. Right, right. It's ghost.

The singing is always creepy and attitude. And yeah, that's what it is. It's always attitude and it's that. It's out of tune. That's the issue. Okay, I get it. It's very stressful. It's very unprofessional.

This is what it is. If the dead can't digest sing properly, it'd be fine. And also if it's a kid ghost, you're like, you died. I know, like that's a kid that died. Yeah. So yeah, so pediatric nurse gets more than she bargained for. And back to dead kids. It says, hey, Lena, Ash and Deb, Deb, my name is Heather.

Yes, you can use my name. If by some miracle, this makes it onto the pod. Miracles happen. I had this. It's on the pod. But not for the children we're about to discuss. Apparently not. And I would like to start off by saying thank you

for taking the time out of your day to read this submission, even though I am sure you have a billion and seven others to read. You're amazing. You really are. And you stood out, Heather. I can say your name, yep, I can. So you guys are absolutely amazing.

And I don't think I would survive my hour long drive to work every day without this podcast. You guys are pure entertainment. I wish I could be your guys BFF because you're dope as shit. We are BFFs and you are also dope as shit, Heather. Yes. And Ash would agree. Absolutely. She would say you would say I can do this book. I agree. I don't say I have a proxy today, but you feel I feel it in my soul and you exude it. Yes. I feel that. Dope. You guys have made me cry with laughter so many times, all while talking about murder.

And that takes some real talent. Anyway, I'm going through the skill. You know, you got to make fun of the murderer. That's what I'm saying. Anyways, I'm going to get into my supernatural experience before my ADHD takes over. And I end up gushing over you guys for 20 pages. I love you, Heather.

So I am currently a pediatric nurse, which means you're a superhero. Yeah, so thanks for being that. That for you. Love a pediatric nurse, love them. They saved one of my twins' lives, so I always love a pediatric nurse. They really are the true heroes.

Amazing. Like, um, literal superheroes. The doctors, I mean, they're awesome also. They come in, but the pediatric nurses are the ones that are there through the night holding the hair back. Exactly. They're always bringing the extra toys in and the extra little things that you need. So for some background information on how my final semester went, most of my days were spent at a hospital assigned to a nurse that already worked there and learning

from her how to be the best nurse I can be. Shout out to you, Alyssa, for making my final semester the best semester ever. Thanks, Alyssa. Shout out to Alyssa. Alyssa, you rock. You are the MVP. PSI asked and you can say her name too, good, because I said it before looking at what had to bleep that out. I mean, her name is Alyssa. Alyssa, hell yeah, Alyssa. Originally, I asked my school if I could be assigned to a neonatal intensive care unit. You really are a key role. Who are you, you're amazing. At one of the hospitals in my city, because I already had a job lined up there for after I graduated.

Unfortunately due to COVID, that unit wasn't taking students and my 3.4 GPA wasn't good enough to go to the children's hospital in the city. This man I got stuck at a hospital I had never been to and had to work on a floor that only saw adults. That sucks. I'm gonna try to continue this story with giving as much detail as I can without violating HIPAA.

I appreciate that. Yeah, I know, that's a good thing. I do appreciate that. At one point, towards the end of my semester, I was doing well enough that the nurse who oversaw me would let me go into patients rooms alone to do certain things. My first patient was in his mid-30s and was completely with it mentally.

While I was getting his vitals, I tried to make a small talk. One of the first questions I asked was, how did you sleep last night? The man proceeded to tell me that he slept fine, except for around midnight when a group of children went running through the halls and peeking into every room once in a while. And so it begins. He then said that once the quote-unquote older nurse got the children to behave, he was able to go to sleep. I immediately froze when he told me this for two reasons.

Can I guess? Can I guess? What are the reasons? There are no children in that hospital. One, two, there's no older nurse. Ding ding ding. One, I should be writing a story. Like I knew it. At this time, COVID rates were still high,

so children were not allowed in the hospital. Oh my God. And two, all the nurses from the night before, were under 40 years old. I'm not saying. I'm not saying older nurse working that about. I'm not saying, yep, I can't. can't. I can't. I told the man all of this and he looked at me completely confused. He then went on to tell me that there

were definitely kids running in the halls the previous night and that the quote, girl with the blue sweater was the one who was going in and out of the room the most. The one with the long hair. He had a British accent and she was the the room the most. The one with the long hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair.

The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair.

The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long, bright knee hair. The long. Sorry about that. Won't have got to go. Can't get you the one tonight. We double his medication last night. Let's make him sleep. I immediately told her what the man said to me and she then proceeded to say, oh yeah,

patients here see kids running down the halls all the time at night. What? And then she said, this makes sense considering this was a pediatric floor when the hospital first opened. Oh, so they're just a bunch of dead kids. Yes. Even though this wasn't a saying at the time, I definitely shit my dick at this moment. That's an unfortunate event for her day experience. She's like, wasn't a saying back then,

but I felt it in my bones. Is it a saying now? Heather just made it out. I heard it on TikTok. Oh, you were doing it. There's a TikTok sound that says, are you shitting my dick? Oh my. And it's ashes.

Outside of TikTok, are you on? I'm not on that side. It's an ash side of TikTok. It's ashes, the one that brings me these. And it's like, this is the funniest shit I've ever seen. She has the most random TikTok out of her. Her feet, I be curious to spend a day on her feet. Her feet is a wild splice to be.

I love it. I love it so much. Yeah, just, mine's like a very spooky, it has spooky stuff, but it also has like lots of like parent humor. Yeah, random machine and video pops up. And one random machine and a treadmill everyone. And then yeah, you fly in there all the time.

Yeah, just spooky parent puppies. That's basically my favorite. Hers is like her. Like her, her music algorithm would be insane too. She listens to literally everything under the sun and that is who she is. There's just no rhyme or reason. She's gemini.

I love it. She's a great person. Multiple people is still holding around in there. All those souls who we get excited for, you know, I love it. All right, not knowing what else to do or say, I moved on to my next patient. This was an older woman who had been there for a while. And I've had many conversations with mostly

about her adorable cat and dog, because I could talk for hours about someone's pets with them, same. She greeted me with a good morning darling to which I responded with a good morning and asked her to FaceTime with her cat and dog. How her FaceTime went with her cat and dog the previous night? Oh, she didn't ask. And that's how she was like time. How did it go last night?

Nice. Hangin' out on FaceTime with your cat and dog. I love that she did that. Love it. Um, where am I? She said it went fine, but that the children running in the hall got too distracting at one boy boy with the children again once again I shit my dick There she goes. I then proceeded to ask her if she remembered what the children looked like to which you responded that the one child who kept going in and out of the room It was a little girl wearing a card again the same color as my scrub pants. My scrub pants were blue.

Oh, well, they were before she. They were. They were. For that. For that. Yes. I honestly can't tell you how the rest of my day went because I was too paranoid looking over my shoulder, worrying that ghost children were falling me in and out of rooms. Also, from then on, anytime I worked a night shift, I would try to tell the ghost children to behave and not keep the patients up that night. That's nice. It's very nice. I'm not a child. Be yourself. But she kept working there. She kept working there. Of course. What she's going to do. She's a hero. She really is.

Yeah. I would not last more than not even one day, but one minute after that. I would love it. I would have left. I just be like, guys, I'm here. Okay, come on. I would have found my replacement because I'm responsible. You could have sang to them. To the ghost children. Yeah. Why not? That's a target. Resonation to them. Yeah. Yeah. I feel like sorry. I have to. Sorry, kids. Gotta go. Yeah. Gotta go. You freak me out. Yeah. It says I probably looked like a freaking weirdo talking to nothing. But like you guys always say it's good to keep things weird. But not so weird that goes children go in and out of people's hotel rooms keeping them

up at night because to be honest, that's a little rude. That is a little rude. Let them sleep. Let them sleep. The fact that two patients said the exact same thing. Back to back. Yeah, it's like that's not just one guy being like, yeah, I had weird visual and auditory hallucinations. Yes. That's not scary as maybe I'm on weird meds.

No, that is terrifying. Unless the weird meds were being served to everybody in that ward that night. Yeah, and they all had the same symptoms. Yes, they were messing with her. That's how that's what I would do if I was like, Oh, you think it's like a hazing thing over there? I for sure would do that.

If I were in a hospital, I'd just call my friend Bertha next door because all the ladies with dogs and cats that they face time are called Bertha. And it's a habertha. Blue cardigan today, got it? Say it on Bertha. Okay, do it.

Okay, do it. The new girl's coming. Let's go with the blue cardigan noise. That's a hazing. That would be a really good hazing to weed out the week. Yeah, you know, a fan to park here to weed out the week. Yeah. You know, all these. You're not going to handle those.

If you're listening to this, like, you probably, like, there's going to be a lot worse on here. So like, if you can't handle the ghost children, like, this probably is the time for you. If you are listening, I see what I need to see. And I can leave. I'm all done here.

Yeah, I'm good. So if you're listening to this from a hospital ward Talk to all your roommates and come up with a story to scare the crap out of the night Get the best of the best survival of the fittest. This is so good. I'm gonna do that Story start the story tell everybody that Children were running the halls at night and see what happens when the interns come tomorrow. There you go. You're cut out to be a pediatric nurse. You can put out for that with that. Ghost children or a lot of live children. Thanks, Heather. Thanks, Heather. You're the best.

It's called featuring hospital and a spirit of a deceased friend. Love Jim. More hospitals.

No whole theme. This is all going to be a theme. All right. Hunted hospital. Good day, my morbid mates. Oh, I like that. Yeah, I gonna be a theme. All right. Hunted hospital. Good day, my morbid mates. Oh, I like that. Yeah, I'm terrible with accents, just nice. How did you decide to go with that?

That's how we wrote it. Good day, my morbid mates. Oh, okay. Yep, if you can't tell I'm Australian. Oh, hell yeah. I can, but I just can't do the accent. We love an Australian. But this Australian fan is a huge fan.

Contrary to popular belief, we don't always say good day mate. It's more like an old-school white dad who dances really awkwardly at a barbecue kind of thing to say. That makes sense. That makes sense. Like my dad says, good day mate. He's gonna be saying good day mate for the rest of the day. Yes. And dancing awkwardly.

That's how I say yes. If Ash was here, she would use her Australian accent in the one word that she knows how to do it. She always says, NAR! Which one's the best? Oh yeah, it's yes! NAR! NAR!

She'll say NAR because I'm like, NAR! NAR! Yep. Well, have I got a weird story for you? Here we go. I love it. You see?

NAR! What was that? NAR! Say, R and R. R and R? Now you just say, oh no, like, like a mess. Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, today. Thank you for bestowing that. R&R. You know what I did? I did like an Australian accent and some of our Australian episodes. Let's give it a minute for everyone. We'll give you 10 seconds now in your cars and your homes, wherever you are. Everyone on three,

one, two, three. R&R. You got it. You're all experts. You got it. We're all linguistically. More bits gift to you today is how to show sympathy if you're in Australia. You know what I've looked up all the like the different ways to say things like with the Australian accent because when we did like Australian madness I think we didn't episode that was just like crazy Australian stuff and I got good at it but I lost it. How? I have to get good at it. Practice years ago. I have to keep practicing. We have to practice. I've probably got self-conscious about it.

I'm super self-conscious. I'll have to get back on it. I want to get that in a Scottish accent. I want to do really good. Because I can only say don't get, and that's all I got. That's a mess. Yeah, that's a mess. In case you were wondering.

You were wondering. Just hear the confirm that it's a mess. Don't get. Yeah, go on. All right, let's continue. Anyway, you see, I spent a lot of time in a hospital It's a mass donkey. Yeah, go on. All right, let's continue. Anyway, you see, I spent a lot of time in a hospital as a child.

I was born with cystic fibrosis. It's a genetic lung and digestive system condition. It sucks, yet I am pretty healthy these days. And I've had a very successful lung transplant nine years. Whoa, I know. And when I was nine years ago, when I was 23 and the liver transplant 18 years ago, when I was 14 years old, now I'm 32 and doing well.

This is amazing. You don't realize that we're like Legos. Yeah. Good medicine. Just swap out this piece. Yeah. Take the son up of the son and just put it back in. And it's fine.

Like that's why that is liver. Go sign all your what is it, your license? Yeah. If you're dead, why you need to keep the parts? Let a guy like this get the parts he can keep living. I got a little heart on my license. Yeah, send all the hate my way for people want to take their organs, but I think that's ridiculous.

Take it. I'm literally going to need it. You don't need it anymore. What did you do with it when you were in the basement in the hospital? You don't need it. Give it to somebody. Someone else can use it. Yeah. No, what did you do with it when you're in the basement in the hospital? Give it to somebody someone else can use it. Yeah, yeah, at least that way they won't come after you exactly

Listen to my friend Lego man sign your Organ donor cars. Yeah, do it in 2007. Okay, so this was when she was in the hospital in 2007 when she was 17 okay I got to know a lot of my nurses at the kids' hospital over the years pretty well. Some would let me hang out behind the desk on night shift if I couldn't sleep because hospital beds suck. Yeah, they do. They truly do.

So one night I was hanging out with the nurses. It had been a pretty sad day on the ward. Unfortunately, I experienced a friend passing away while I was in the hospital. Oh, that's really sad. That is sad. It would rarely happen, yet my friend had passed away in the ICU that morning. After she was transferred there from the ward, she also had cystic fibrosis.

Let's call her Kate for the story to protect her identity. Kate was waiting for a double lung and liver transplant. We were good friends and she was just too sick and didn't make it in time for her transplant to come. Oh, that's so sad. That is really sad. See, organ donors. Yep.

I encourage everyone listening to Sinath. Hey, you're so much better ready. You're so excited for organ donation. There you go. There you go. It's not like the black market organ donation, which is illegal and unethical. Exactly. That's a medication for another time, though.

Kate was strong, funny, never afraid of anything, and would teach me things. I never knew about anything and everything. She was wise beyond her years, and I honestly believe she was here to teach people. She passed at the age of 15 and around two weeks before her 16th birthday. Oh, jama. That's really sad. She's so sorry Kate. So I knew Kate. I'm so sorry.

Kate, I know. When she was put into the ICU after being stabilized in surgery and not back on the ward, oh, before her 16th birthday, all her things were left in her room on the ward and she had already been in the hospital for weeks. She was not too sick to go home and she was too sick to go home until the transplant came.

Unfortunately, it wasn't meant to be and a donor could not be matched in time. That's really sad. So there I was hanging out with the nurses behind the desk one night, late around 3 a.m. They let cystic fibrosis patients hang out behind the desk occasionally if we couldn't sleep, etc. back in 2007. These days there were not a lot of rules with CF patients and cross-infection. Unlike in the movie Five Feet Apart, there is some truth to that movie, yet I can't stand that movie though. I mean, who the hell goes ice skating on a lake in the middle of the night when waiting for a long transplant? I barely shower myself or walk three meters, let alone do that.

That would be really frustrating to watch while you're going through it. And you're like, yeah, no, that's a work. Thank you for that. Right. Beautiful. Back to my story. My nurse and I were chatting away about random things surfing the web, looking up silly sites like funny junk.com. Who remembers that? Funny junk.com. I'm not even sure if it's still a website. It was like a website of funny photos before memes were a huge thing. I love that. Me too. We should go look it up on this funnyjunk.com.

We'll look it up fast, you're doing it. Maybe it's just a dark card. Oh no, it's a fridge. The aircon in the hospital was getting maintenance work done. I promised this is important later. So the aircon wasn't working for a few hours that night. All of a sudden, from Kate's empty room, as she had been transferred to the ICU,

slowly bopping out was a balloon. It was a get-well foil balloon with the ribbon still attached to it, which we both knew was tied at the other end to her bed. Her room was right near the nurse's station as she was one of the more critical patients that needed a lot of care. My nurse and I were talking in mid-sentence looked at the balloon, then looked at each other, then looked back

at the balloon. We looked at each other again and just whispered, what? What? What the actual F. There was no draft, no air to push this balloon, bopping along the hallway at us. Remember how I said there was no aircon that night? And it was tied down at the end of her bed. The balloon had pink and red colors. If it was only red in color, I probably would have yeeted myself into an early discharge home. I was clown was now on the wall. I was gonna say Pennywise is coming through. Yeah. So as I have been in and out of the hospital

with my CF, most of my childhood over the years, I found out where the morgue was. It was down the large hallway and into the diagnostic services part of the hospital. Now this hallway just happened to be near the teenagers ward. Ooh. This story's getting a little bit scary. It will scary.

Yes. My nurse is a little bit scary. It's a little scary. Yes. My nurse is a nice sit up. By now, it had popped right up close to the desk, hovering super creepy. We were both gobsmacked. That's a good word. That is a good word. All of a sudden, it turned towards the ward,

main doors, and floats out. As there were two other nurses in the drug room, my nurse quickly told them, ah, we'll be back in one second. We both decided to follow this balloon that had us gobsmack and freaked. I liked that. Now it was out of the ward and yep,

still bopping down that hallway. Oh, that spooky. And they were actually following, said, oh yes, she wants back in. I would follow the hell out of the balloon. You would do. Yeah, I need to know where it's going. Okay, my nurse and I were half laughing

and I said, why do I feel so cold? Ooh, we both had goosebumps now. Remember the aircon wasn't working. The balloon had reached the next hallway away from the hall to the ward towards the hallway past the elevator to the diagnostic section of the hospital, which is ding ding ding ding.

We're home. We're home. towards the hallway past the elevator to the diagnostic section of the hospital. Which is ding ding ding ding. Yeah. We're home. We're home. Nothing could have been making this thing move the way that it did. Yep, it was still floating in this time at more of a speed and we were both so cold. There's a ghost afoot.

Kate. There's a ghost afoot. Kate, let me tell ya. I know. It is cold. I'm sorry to tell you. I know. It is cool. I'm sorry to tell you. Ghost face, she colds.

You okay, Maynard's asked? Yeah, fine. I just, I was kinda stunned and pointed to the balloon. We watched the balloon, it went down the hallway, and we both gasped. It turned a new corner, straight to the hallways that led to the diagnostic services, where the mortuary was.

We both screamed as we had the same thought, Kate, she wants her balloon. Oh my God. You're surprised? I knew it was following, but I wasn't thinking of her wanting her balloon. Well, I thought she was just taking the balloon that way, but now I'm like, oh my God, she wants her balloon back. Maybe it was her and she was just walking with her balloon. Because she was gonna be turning 16.

It's like her birthday. So she's like, I want my balloon. We suddenly realized what had happened and ran back to the ward, laughing. What? We saw something really bizarre. I couldn't believe that night. I couldn't believe that night.

They did not complete the journey. They just laughed. Why don't they take the balloon to Katie? Because I think they're gonna be even and took it herself. But they make it all the way. They just laughed. Why don't they take the balloon to Katie? Because I think they have been in service. Even took it herself. But they make it all the way. The balloon made it. Katie will get this.

Katie will take it. Katie, you got it from here. I'm going. Here's here. Peace out. The next night, my nurse was on again. And Kate's mom still exhausted from the day before it. Now grieving had come to the ward to pack up Kate's things from her room.

My nurse, called Louise, by the way, was helping pack up her belongings to go home. I felt like I had to tell her about the balloon. Me and Kate's mom were close. When I told her, she was tearing up and smiled. That is just so, so funny. Is it though? You're like, yeah? Is it the why?

She definitely was playing a trick on you and Louise, my nurse. I guess it was her way of saying hello. She always said to me, she will say hi in a creative way to her friends and nurses. Oh, I love that. Oh. I mean, I guess that's creative. That is creative.

It's nice saying, yeah, I love you. I'm still like a little balloon bomb. I'm a little balloon bomb. Like, it's not threatening. It's not like threatening. Like as spooky as it is, you're like, that's just a balloon, right? Right.

You know, like, we all laughed. Kate has been gone a long time since 2007, yet she's always in my thoughts. Cystic fibrosis isn't cured yet, and I hope one day it will be. Treatment has improved, yet we have a long way to go. I encourage everyone to donate to Cystic fibrosis charities and research. Yes. We'll link some in our show notes. Oh, that's nice.

That's really sweet. I'm still in contact with Kate's family and my old nurse Louise. We never went down the diagnostic service building as you needed an electronic plastic get to certain area. The balloon gets when through the door. That's why they did not everybody could get into the Morgan. But the balloon get passed. You know, paranormal stuff. they always have a pass. They have all the electronic passes. You go wherever they want. You know, love the podcast.

Keep it weird, but not so weird that your friend passes away and haunts you with a balloon that it's somehow untied from her bed and goes down a hallway at 3 a.m. just to spook the bejesus out of you. And it's 3 a.m. too. It's the witch. It's always 3 a.m. That's the witch hour. That's when all the weird should happened. That's why I don't get out of my bed.

Yeah. That's what my youngest used to see Skeleton. Skeleton was my buddy. Skeleton. I love Skeleton. Yeah. She would just like, Skeleton. Just hanging out 3 a.m. Oh man. Alright. That was like a swine. I don't know, man. All right. Damn, Jemma. That was a sweet one. And you may use my name. Oh, thank you, Jemma. So this won't be beep. The whole episode will not be beeped out. I love it.

And you know what, that was like a sweet one. Was it the one? It was like her friend coming from the dead. And just feeling like a little silly goofy. Yeah. It was so good. Okay, just a note to all my friends, if you die and you're a ghost, please don't.

Leave me alone. Are you mean nothing to me? The minute you start breathing, you mean nothing to us. I'm not going to go on. Follow the light. Go. You can send me like, no, don't send anything.

I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next.

I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. I'll see you in the next. Oh, there you go. Oh, you want Amazon? They need to go get a subscription. To continue to show you. Yeah, don't freak me out with a balloon. Just show up in her mirror at 3 a.m. That's the kindest way to do it as it goes. Do you know when I was younger, I heard stories of Bloody Mary. I never actually saw any movies or anything.

Bloody Mary used to scare the shit out of her. But I would go to the, if I had to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night, I would close my eyes. I watched my hands. I feel that. Why don't we create a morbid mirror that you can sell to people so they can put in the guest bathrooms of their homes. Oh my God. So it's bloody Mary. No, so only in the morning, yeah, children, that children's faces just pop up on the giggling noise. Just like that. Hi. Hey, don't forget to wash your hands. Oh my God. But only at 3 a.m. like 3 to like that. Hi. Hey, the little one. Don't forget to wash your hands.

Oh my God. But only at 3 a.m. Like 3 to 4 a.m. Only if it's dark. If they turn the light on, it doesn't work. But only the dark that has this. I love hard. Let's make that product.

Yeah, that's a great product. That's how you TM things, right? You just say TM. Yeah, you just say that. That's how I should I TM things all the time. I think that's how that's how it works. Really an idea TM. No one is taking that now. Yeah. We'll sue you. That's great. Yeah, that's how that works. That podcast. I like this idea. I said TM. Right. So that's a good idea. I think that's a great idea. But then you have to

clean up the bathroom after like that should be the thing. You do that. Yeah, make it. Let's get that going, Mikey. Let's get that rolling. Yeah, the scare that shit out of you, Mirror. I think this one is going to be, let's see. Uh, I think this will be a good one. Okay. I'm not really sure. They're all good ones.

It's called a haunted hospital and an uninvited passenger. Passengers. I'm always haunted hospitals. A passenger. I'm a little scared by this one. Okay, I'm quickly scanning to see if I can use the name. Oh, yeah, we can use the name. We can use the name.

Excellent. I love when people tell us that. Are you too ready? I'm ready. This one's called a haunted hospital and an uninvited passenger. What's up bitches? I couldn't wait to be in the high five fist bump.

Fingerpoke kind of way. Yeah. What's a fingerpoke you might say? When my nephews were wee ones, we taught in the high five fist bump finger poke kind of way. Yeah. What's a finger poke you might say when my nephews were we ones, we taught them to high five and then fist bump my youngest nephew, then stuck his finger straight out like ET. And we did the finger poke his words. Okay. Can you guys let's see if you learn?

There you go. That takes a lot of like, there you go. Focus. Yeah. I really don't. You have to like, just if you guys could see I'm seeing now. We'll put it on my To drone people trying to touch fingers. It takes a lot of focus. It's good. I feel a purposeful right now This has since become a thing with all our little ones in our lives. It's the cutest damn thing ever not here. It isn't

This was adorable. I don't so cute You can use my name, which is Casey, by the way. Hey Casey. I'm a new listener and was introduced to your podcast in an interesting manner. Oh, good for you Casey. This is not the podcast you are introduced to. I love it. We are at my uncle's burial and my very large, very red neck family all met up at the

closest bar to celebrate with bar food and lots of drinks. I love that. That sounds great. That sounds like the way to do it. That's what you got to do. As we were sitting around tables shooting the shit. My aunt Susie asked me out of the blue, what is a, you like this? Pettifah. Oh, oh, my god. Oh, no. My sister. It's what you call. Oh, what is it? Oh, what is your word. Okay, I put a file. There's no filing involved here. My sister and I and you know what, you know what, you know what, you

listen, say, a pet or what? She's not saying, do listen to podcasts. I've been listening to this one called morbid, and they keep referring to something called a pedophile. Oh, my god. So of course, my sister and I jump on Google tour and to our dismay find nothing except a reference to you know what I was thinking. Petifies. Yeah.

Yeah. My aunt Susie who by the way is a badass bitch. Hell yeah. With the biggest heart in the whole world says that doesn't really seem right. You need to listen to this podcast. You love all that ghostly stuff and I thought of you as soon as I heard it. I downloaded a couple of episodes and proceeded to laugh when I discovered a pedophile is your word for a PDF file.

I'm obsessed with that. This is the way she got into it. I love it. Nothing to do with scary stories. It's easy. Nothing to do. Just Ansy's saying what the hell is a pedophile? I love it. I love it.

Much like us in the nursing world who refer to an EKG as an ecaga. Ecaga. My aunt got a good giggle out of this as well. I also realized that I just found my new obsession. Your podcast. Hey, KC. Your mind is on the best. You are KC. I don't just call anyone bitches in a good way. So you should take that as a compliment. Casey reserves it for just demeaning people. I also, I, if I'm calling you like a bitch in a happy way, then like, you really like me.

Yeah, like you're a bad bitch. That's a term. Mikey, you're bastard. You son of a bitch. Like a good way. I like that Let's normalize person our friends out. I like that. You are very aggressive the more aggressive my compliment to me The to you the more I love you your first email or text to me was signed off. I love your fucking guts Yeah, I love the fucking guts

I do it all the time. Oh, I just want to punch you. And he's like, that's not nice. But I think a lot of people do that. No, I get that. I do. My kids, I wanted to punch them in the face. I really want to launch you and son. You're just the cutest. Don't don't punch your children. No, just't do it.

Just tell them you want to. Just put one of them. Oh, I'm part of poppy. We use your fists. Yeah. I'm going to prop them to their head and pop up. Oh, because you're so cute. Yep.

Yeah, don't do any of those things. No, do that. You'll be arrested immediately. No, they figured out that's like normal. Is it? Yeah, it's like a some evolution. It's something that the two of you do. It's not normal.

Okay, back to our story, ladies. Now she is correct. I do love me some ghostly stuff. I was watching poltergeist at home alone at a young age and have never stopped. Well, that's impressive. I'm obsessed with horror movies and haunted houses. The warrants are my heroes.

Whoa. I can't get enough of their stories. Okay, please tell she know who the warrants are my heroes. I can't get enough of their stories. Okay, please tell us who the warrants are. The warrants are like famous, very famous, and infamous ghost hunters. There you go. I would never... She should have hang out with them. Like Amityville, the conjuring, like they're all of us.

You should go. You should look them up and say, hey, I would like to come hang out with you. Where did they live? Where are they? Isn't one of them dead? Oh, but that's... They're them dead? Oh, but that's both dead. No, but that doesn't matter in this form of work. They just committed to their jobs. Yeah, they truly are. They're doing more now. They don't want to go there. Yeah, they're they're an interesting story. Oh, they're here right now. The two of them. The poster is shaking on the

wall. You know, we have a lot to talk about. There's a red balloon. Yeah, there's the war. I can. My sister Jessica and I tend to frequent places that are known to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about.

I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about.

I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to talk about. I told you a lot to my local town. You're like 12 minutes from Salem. Right, that's right. That's true. I have. You're like, go there for fun. That's very true.

And didn't you go on a boat like the scariest ship in Quincy? We did. In Quincy. In your state. Yeah. There's like, that was also 20 minutes away. I had a ghost blow in my ear. I got assaulted by a ghost.

And you have a cell. They were hitting on you. Yeah, they're sailors. So that's the nicest thing they do. You're good. Yeah, the hospital has been abandoned for years. And when some local ladies discovered how haunted it was, they decided to put on some tours.

Of course, they placed a shutdown because it's scary. Yeah, they can service the needs of the ill here, but we can make people ill here. So let's bring them in. They can get service down the road at the new hospital. You turn that right around. Now, growing up in the small town. I had also grown up with all of them. So the tour seemed more like a girls night out with just a touch of let's see who can make it through this scary ass shit. Sounds like my perfect

idea. You guys should you should take her on this tour. Yes. She is nodding in a like one hundred percent agreement. This is sarcasm from me know, they should take you. This could be our whole new YouTube series where we take you to haunted places. Oh my god. I want to be great. I'll just go. Let's go. Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. Let's do it. What is that house? You know, oh my god. Don't start. So we need to make it a series. Not a one in that. That's true. It's a feature film then we could do one in that. It's got vibes in that. And then they follow you.

Yeah, there are some vibes in that. Oh my gosh. It's a blast. But I love to go back. Okay, let's see how creepy this one is. I'm gonna be in the breakfast in the morning. This can be added to the list though because at the beginning of each tour, you meet outside the massive building with a scale of 10 on the creepy scale. That's just the building. Hospital abandoned

for years, so there's no power or anything in the building. Yes, I'm in. You're equipped with flashlights and the warmest clothes necessary for a fall night. So now they're ready to enter. The ladies also suggested we download a specific Ghost Hunter app on our phones, because now you can just get apps for this. Yeah, if you want to just put it out the app has got this sorted to tell you which ghosts are where take a left here for children you know straight for. Murderers yeah, it's a map yeah, it's a map. Yeah, those are good. No, but the real ones are too real the apps apps are better for 99 cents. Someone can build that for you. You want a morbid app? You can make a morbid app for made up ghosts.

There you go. I like that. Here's where my T.F. We're going to make a fake app. Here's where my skepticism kicked into overdrive. Seriously, a stupid iPhone app. That's what I was just thinking. Thank you. That's what I was just thinking. Thank you. That's what I was like. Yeah, this doesn't.

They supposedly had previous luck with communicating through the SAP with ghostly residents. It acts like one of those devices that make the white noise and let spirit talk through it. I think EVP is the correct name. I also decided to start recording on my phone just to see if I picked up any voices or noises. I mean, why not, right? So we all laugh and skeptically download the app. As we begin the tour into the hospital, the app is squawking and randomly spouting out words like ring, landscape, etc. We're all like, ooh, so there is a ring buried outside in the landscape, but I absurd the app was. As we married our way through the hallways

of peeling plaster and scattered debris, we come upon a specific patient's room by the name of Rose. At least I think that's what was her name. We will go with that for now. Let's go with Rose. Let's go with Rose. Rose was known to be a volatile patient

who didn't want anyone bothering her in her room at any time. Uh-oh. As we all conjured around in the room, hearing the stories of Rose, we were suddenly stalled as all of our phones with a ghost hunter app promptly shouted, get out. Oh no.

At the same time, it was Rose. Needless to say, we got out. Rose had spoken when they tell you to leave, you leave. Rose means yes. We made our way through the rest of the hallways of the massive hospitals, searching all the remains of the procedure room, the children's wing, and eventually the kitchen. This is where things got interesting for me.

The kitchen area was still stocked with all the dishes, cooking pots and pans, and the cash register. As I was standing next to the cash register, my app became very active, spouting out words like cash, money, etc. While I was concentrating on this particular revelation, I could hear others talking very excitedly in a cubby off the kitchen, which was known to be a very active area. I went to the area after they cleared out and just found shelves of dishes. Nothing too exciting.

However, remember this particular spot for reference. Some remembering. We left the kitchen area and made our way upstairs. Now keep in mind that since the building has been sold and was going to be renovated, we were told that if we wanted, we could take anything home from the hospital that we please. What? The dishes? Here's some dishes from this's like, it's like, do you want to take like a catheter? Oh, this is Jeremy's catheter. Yeah.

Still filled. As we made our way up the stairs and through the rooms, we came upon a room with the number 309. It would appear someone had been squatting here for some time. There's a mattress and sleeping bags and lots of empty food containers and bags. So this is an abandoned building. So maybe someone just wanted cover. We also found 80s porn magazines,

which are quite comical in the amount of hair that was acceptable in various regions in that time. Yes, 80s hairstyles. My sick humor being what it is, I thought, I need this door number plaque, considering it was also the same number as my address. So I peeled it off the wall and placed it in my pocket. Yep, this is not the first time I have made this grave decision. I also found a super old beer bottle that peaked my interest.

And to my pocket it went. Oh, no. I also found several windows and doors that would have loved to confiscate but didn't have my power tools with me. They didn't say take anything. They didn't get eaten up. We then made our way down to the main level

but there was still one more level to descend. What's in the basement, Elena? The more. The more. Oh, my place. I stood at the top of the stairs, looking down into the deepest, darkest, darkness I had ever seen or not seen. I made the immediate decision that there was no way I was going down there.

Period! And the story... Go down there. All I could envision was ghostly screen faces trapped at the bottom, screaming up at me. So basically, the tour had ended. So the she didn't go. We stood outside and visited and visited and said our goodbyes and I got in my pick for my 20-minute drive home on the dark country back roads to where we lived. I feel like those objects are going to be a problem. Yeah, she got in her pickup. I was excited to see if my phone had picked up anything while

I was recording the whole two hours we were in the hospital. I mean, I could see the red line going up and down the whole tour. I was expecting to hear something. As I pulled up the app on my phone, I was stunned to find that was absolutely nothing recorded at all. Before I left the hospital, I had two hours worth of recording on. Now, outside the hospital, I had zero. What the hell? It was all gone. Hell indeed. So I threw some music on and drove home, rethinking my visit to the hospital. And imagining it was when it was still in working condition with the nurses in white uniforms and their caps in place, et etc. I could see it all clearly

in my mind before the plaster was peeling and the place wasn't riddled with trash and debris. Could have been a nice place. Yeah. Yeah. I got home and this is where things got interesting. And at home now. Not in the hospital. She's come home now. Yeah. She's taken the thing out. And she's taken what else did she bring? A beer bottle. A beer bottle. Yeah. I was standing in my kitchen when I got the feeling I should check the ghost hunter app just for shits and giggles. I opened the app and heard the white noise.

I then asked, is anyone there? Immediately the app responds, yes. Never. Never ask that. I then asked, who are you? The app responds, Dave. Oh, just date, oh, it's Dave. Well, of course I then responded with Why are you here? The app responded with

pretty Dave I Asked you followed me home because you think I'm pretty? Absent, yes. Oh, Dave, I've ever heard of consent. Okay. No, jeez.

Dave dead. Dave dead. Dave like Casey. Now, as I stand in my kitchen in the late hours of the night, I'm thinking to myself, not only is there a presence named Dave here in my kitchen in the late hours of the night, I'm thinking to myself, not only is there a presence named Dave here in my kitchen, but most disturbingly, he was in my passenger seat with me on the ride the whole way home.

Oh my gosh. Oh, that is so creepy. Well, maybe he just floated. I don't know what the speed limit for floating is. No, he definitely sat in that passenger seat. Or maybe just on top of our car. Maybe in our lap. But it would have been cold. That's what he would have called. Yeah, maybe he sat in the back for a moment. You hitched the ride. Or maybe just on top of our trip. Maybe in our lab. Maybe you would have been cold.

That's what you would have been cold. Yeah. Okay. Maybe you sat in the back. There is a significant temperature. Every time I feel cold now, you guys, I'm going to be freaked out. I'm telling you. You feel cold every night.

Because it's a cold. Maybe your house is haunted. The Quincy ship was freezing obviously because it's just sitting in the middle of the ocean. Yeah. But there was significant changes in temperature when things would start going down. All of a sudden your breath would become visible

and it was like a deep cold that you were like in your bones. This is different. How cold is it when a sailor looks your ear? That was awful. I thought it was a bug in my ear. I thought it landed in my ear, but it was like this weird cold that it It was Robert, that was the name.

We're sure. Bobby. Yeah, we're sure. Bobby the year blower. For the bastard. God damn it, Robert. Dave then told me other things about a man named Gary White. Gary White?

That may also have been with him. It was a little confusing at this point because of the information he was spewing out. It was so sporadic. I love that she's like having a whole lot to have her hair shown up. So like, we had a party. I love that she's not even slightly freaked out.

No. Yeah, so I mean, she was kind. She told Dave that he should go back to the hospital where he belonged. And I'm sorry if I gave him the wrong impression when I wanted him to come home with me. Well, she's very nice. I then went to bed.

However, for about three days after that, my cat would stand on the back of the couch, staring at the ceiling, chattering his teeth. The cat was basically Garfield reincarnate. So his behavior was so out of his norm and a little underving. I mean, let's be real. His fat ass didn't move unless he needed to eat or shit, but he was upset. He was watching the ceiling constantly. About three days after the tour, I talked to one of my girlfriends, Robin, who helped out with the tours and told her my story. She gaped at me and then told me that the hotspot in the kitchen that had

all the activity where the dishes were was a ghost named Dave. Oh. And there had been no activity in that area since the day I had taken the tour. Because you were home with the house, sir. Robyn then told me that she had taken a couple of ghosts home with her as well, taken. But they eventually go back to the hospital where they belong. Don't worry about it, they'll go home.

No hospital. No hospital. It worry about it. They'll go home. No hospital. Still remains in its decrepit state. Several people have tried to convert the building into apartment buildings and such, but have never succeeded. The show goes hunters did an episode of a tour through the Signe Gnaseus hospital in full facts. And I did hear that most of their recordings from that night were erased from their cameras

when leaving the hospital. Oh, that's weird. Weird. On a side note, my dear friend Robin died last year of cancer. Because she is the one, because she is one of the people who suggested the ghost hunter apt to me, I occasionally try to reach her through it. So far, all I have gotten is that my drink is next to my remote, which is always true, but could never get a name of who I am communicating with.

Maybe Dave is still making house calls, who knows? Maybe one of these days I will get to talk to my dear friend again through or suggest it out. But I do hold solace that the last time I saw her, I told her I loved her and would see her soon. I know she is happy and no longer in pain in heaven with her daddy. So keep it weird, but not so weird that you bring home a ghost by the name of Dave from a haunted hospital because he thinks your hot and terrorizes your cat for three days while you try to get him to go back home. Definitely not that weird. Yeah, that's too weird. Wow. But on the bright side, she got to keep her 50 year old beer bottle and her new nameplate. 309. That was going to

be part of the scary part of the touch to those things. Maybe he wanted to make sure that they had a good home. So Davey likes hot kleptos. Yeah, you know, who doesn't? But she had a klepto because she was a labyrinth to take it. But Dave didn't know that. She was definitely allowed to. Dave doesn't know what they tell you outside the premises. I feel for him. Oh, I am.

Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am.

Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Oh, I am. Well, my next one is called hospitals are haunted y'all. That's it. And it's still with the haunted hospitals are haunted y'all. And this is from Christina. And yes, you can use my name.

Thank you because I did. Thanks Christina. Let me start by saying I am super excited that you wonderful ladies are reading my submission. You're welcome. You're welcome. I also want to thank you for being amazing and kind to human beings. Oh, thank you. I absolutely love when you both stumble on words and don't cut it out.

We're not going to this. We're fine with that. As a nurse educator, I do that too when I present, and it's nice to feel like I'm not the only one. That's all world. That's the whole world. We're real people. Yeah.

Yeah, people. Ever since I listened to the first listener, tales, I was tempted to share some of my stories. I finally decided to write in today after I validated one of the stories with a nurse that I work with. And then later in the day, my mail in my mail in my office mailbox just flew out onto the floor in front of my coworkers. No breeze and no one else's mail ever shifted. I've included two stories as there's a theme and they are somewhat short. Take what you like, leave what you don't.

We'll take it. We'll take it all. The first one is called Wheelchair Basketball Ghost. I don't know how I was like, be a basketball. I don't know why I said it like that. ghost. I don't know how I was like, be basketball. I don't know why I said it like that. The first story originates in my first year of nursing. I worked second shift from 3 to 11 p.m. I often got mandated to work a double shift, 16 hours. Damn. That is a long 3 p.m. to 7 a.m. I was young and energetic and loved the overtime pay. Mama needed some new shoes. Of course. So it didn't faze me too much. One evening, I had a patient's family member getting ready to leave for the night, and she

asked me not to let anything bad happen to her mother. Oh. I assured her that she had nothing to worry about, and that I would be there all night with her. Her mother was there because of COPD, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and was very stable. I really was not worried about this patient so much. I was worried about my psych patients across the hall that were seeing spiders everywhere,

but I parked myself outside my COPD's patient door so that I could visualize her throughout the night. You're a good nurse. Very good. Yeah, she was just... Also, I'd be scared of the spider patients. I would also be scared of it. I would stay away from the spider patients. Yeah, that would be a little terrifying. Yeah. She was receiving an overnight

Sategram which basically measures her oxygen levels throughout the night. They say that after you've been a nurse for a while you start to develop a sixth sense for your patients and can predict when something is just not right even when they look clinically fine. I was by no means as experienced at an experienced nurse, but I like to think that this is when my nursing six cents started to kick in. I had this strange desire to make sure that I knew where the code blew.

A code called when a patient loses their pulse button was in her room. Isn't that terrifying? That's terrifying. That's really terrifying. That's like when you see, like it's like in the new schools, now you see like lockdown,

by the walls, like those kind of things, while very necessary and I'm so happy. They're comforting, but also terrifying at the same time. It's like so when you see a code blue, you're like, oh, you have to use that at some point. That's scary. Like I said, I was a new nurse and had never actually called the code blue until this night. Oh, no. Later in the night, just after 2 a.m. my patients'

oxygen saturation started rapidly decreasing. I ran into the room and flipped the light on. She was not breathing. I checked for a pulse, no pulse. I immediately pushed the code blue button on the wall that I had so conveniently located earlier in the night and began CPR. So she knew. She just knew. Like, she, that was the sixth sense. We were able to get her pulse back and she was transferred to ICU. I felt horrible like I had failed her daughter, but there were no clinical indicators leading

up to this event. She was getting ready to be discharged home the next day. I then learned what happens when you use a code card, the full, the cart full of medications and supplies to run a code blue. My coworkers instructed me that I had to take the open cart down to the sub-basement at the far end of the hospital and retrieve a new one.

That sounds good. That sounds good. Oh, the hospital basement. I hate anything about the hospital basement. Where are you standing down there? Like, hello. Like, where are you? Where you come in in the middle of the hospital basement. Where are you standing down there? Like, hello. It's like, where are you? Where are you coming in the middle of the night and go?

Are you down here by yourself? And I go, no. No, I'm not. All of them are here. They're all here with me. They thought that this would be a good learning experience for me and that I had to go alone. So they could cover the rest of the floor.

Because she didn't have a difficult enough made, all we could eat. You should go alone. And she says, was this hazing? I don't know. You be the judge. Yes, it was. Our hospital was set up with a very long outer hallway that slightly curved and spanned the length of the hospital and each unit had small hallways that branched off one side. My unit was on the far north end of the hospital and the elevator to the sub basement was at the far south end. As I pushed the code cart down the hallway, the units branched off to my right. I made it about one third down the hallway when I saw a patient in a wheelchair, wheeling herself out of the unit

hallway into the main hallway. I could not see her face, but she had long black, scragally hair. Oh my god. Nobody does their hair when there's past. Oh, he's. This is, I'm starting a salon right now, nodding DM. Oh, DM. That draped somewhat over her face. Oh my God.

Do you want to scare the shit out of living people? Do it, looking good. Come to nodding. Come to nodding. The only thing was it was not a pattern I had ever seen on one of our hospital games. It appeared as though she would notice me coming towards her and she began to roll her wheelchair backwards

and back into the unit she came from. I don't like that. I don't like any of that. She did this so smoothly and quickly, like something you would see from a professional wheelchair basketball player. Yet she looked so just disheveled. No, apparently not.

Just, just, just, just, just the, this listener is familiar with the wheelchair basketball. Yeah, wheelchair. Wheeling and dealing with wheelchair basketball. She said she was so smooth, but she looks so, just, just, she's just shevelled and weak. I was still a ways from her, so I picked up my pace and turned the corner into the unit she had come from.

She was not there. I looked down the hall in the unit and she was nowhere to be found. Stop. There's a nurse's station right at the entrance of the hallways. So I asked the nurses sitting there if a patient had just come by in a wheelchair. They looked at me like I was so strange for asking that kind of question at 3am and said, no, no one has been past here. I proceeded back out into the main hallway, thinking to myself, cool, cool, cool. So that was a ghost. Yes. So it was awesome.

I arrived at the elevator to the sub basement. How could they expect me to go down there after this? Couldn't I just leave this used cart in the hallway? That's why I would really need a fresh code cart on our unit? Can it wait till morning, or at least not the witching hour of 3 a.m.? Oh yes. Or can you take a buddy, like a 3 a.m.

Just someone. Just someone. Yeah, you gotta use the buddy system. No nurses came out of loans to the board. You're a professional. They always had a buddy. Always, every time. Every time.

These are smart nurses. Yeah, I sucked up my fear and retrieved a new car while you're brave. The whole time questioning everything I had just experienced. I know I wasn't overtired and wasn't seeing things because I had just performed CPR and my body was pumping with endorphins. But you said it was a 16 hour shift. Yeah. So.

So possibly, but the CPR like pumped her up, she's like, she's like, let's go. I was wide awake. I never told anyone at work about that event because I was not trying to stand out as a weirdo. Flash forward 10 years later and I fully embraced my weirdness. Love it. So that was the first story. The second story is the boy in the striped shirt. That's ominous. This story takes place years later in a hospital in Georgia. I was very experienced nurse and worked as a float nurse where I would work in a different unit each day to help the short staffing.

I really enjoyed this position because I got to see all areas of hospital and it also meant that I didn't always know the deep details of each unit, like the boy in the striped shirt. Yeah. On this particular day, Yuck, I was working on a cardiac unit and one of my patients was losing their battle with heart disease and had to get put into hospice and of life care. It was the last rounds of my shift and I went in his room to give him some medication for comfort. Before I gave his medication, he asked me, who is that little boy in the corner with the striped shirt? Did she say Yuck? She said, Yuck. That's your friend Billy. Just walked out. You're gonna. Four guys like, okay. Just see him things. It was just the patient and I in the room,

but I was too frightened because at this, but I wasn't too frightened because at this point in my career, I had worked with many hospice patients and it is very common for them to see loved ones that had passed shortly before they passed. Welcome. That is true too.

It is very real. I have heard that too because they're like helping them transition. Isn's very real. I have heard that too. Because they're like helping them transition. Isn't that soothing? Actually, I love the idea of that. You think of you're going to die tomorrow. What does that mean? I'm not telling you nothing. Yeah. I'm not going to tell you. You've got to tell you to go visit some country you've never been to. You'd be scared. I don't know a whole other. No, I know. I've heard that before. I actually think it's really comforting. They just like welcome you in. Yeah. Just

transition you in and be like it's good I see they're like That it's not they're not talking to the people that are still living their beautiful lives here on earth They're talking to people that are going which is okay with that It's warm and welcoming. Oh, and this is she says I had experienced this with my own grandfather and would later experience it with my father I asked the patients patient. Do you know him and he said no He says, I had experienced this with my own grandfather and would later experience it with my father. I asked the patient, do you know him? And he said, no, that's when I became concerned.

I asked, what is he doing? The patient said, you know, they only make sure you come without any, you don't bring any of this. Yeah, they just want to make sure. But they scan you. Yeah. You really, you who you say you are? So she said, what is he doing?

And the patient said, you can see for yourself, look at him. I turned to look and saw nothing in the room with us. The patient then said, he's just staring at us. Ooh, I wouldn't like that. Yeah. Internally, I thought, us, don't bring me into this. You're the one seeing him, not me, but I smiled and nodded. Finished administering the medication

and made my way back out to the nurse's station. At the end of our shift, we would give the charge nurse updates on our patients. I gave my updates and laughingly told the charge nurse that my patient saw a boy in his room with a striped shirt. He instantly in her face. Instantly her face turned from calm to frightened. As did everyone else's face at the nurse's station. She proceeded to tell me that the unit has a resident ghost or what some would call a grim reaper.

Yeah, time is up. Exactly. The boy in the striped shirt appears to people before they die. That's a good thing. I was like, ooh, that's a shame. All those people are dying and they're getting a welcome host. Why are you giving boy a boyfriend a striper? I know, this is just a boyfriend a striper.

Yeah, I like the blue stripes. He's like the, he's their, he's their transport. Yeah, their guy. Shuttle has arrived. He's just their guy. He's such a good guy. He's just our guy. I was fully creeped out and called his family to come visit him,

which is probably a good thing. Yeah. I didn't say why. I just said that he had been not asking for them. I handed off report to the oncoming nurse and gave her the notice of the signing of the boy in the striped shirt. She huffed and puffed and casually said, great, more paperwork for me tonight. Yeah. Wow. Because someone's gonna go. Great. You guys can get tonight's, I was hoping for next Tuesday. Yeah, okay. She knew the legend and knew that he would be passing shortly. Damn. All right. I need to admit that there are nurses like this. Yes. But burnout is real. Y'all dead is very true. I can't

imagine being a nurse. It made me sad to hear that from her, but I was glad to know that his family would be there with him. I stopped back by the unit the next day to check on him. He had in fact passed away overnight and was now in the morgue. Helena. She gets so happy right now. Yeah, I just get so excited. I choke. His family got to be by his side and say their last goodbyes and help his spirit move on. While this situation fully creep me out, I found myself being thankful for that warning

from the boy in the structure. She gets it. So that I could get his family to be there with him. Was this boy a grim reaper? Or was he a ghost there to help the staff and those that are about to pass know that the time is soon? Thanks for listening to my couple of stories. Keep it weird, but not so weird that.

Take it away, Ash. She can't. Not so weird that you take it away, Ash, she can't. Not so weird that you're not in the fucking room like Ash. Not so weird that you get scared about the little boy in the pajamas who comes to do a good deed because he likes to transport you and you give him a bad name calling him the Grim Reaper. I like that.

I like this boy, I'm team pajama boy. I know, I like pajama boy. He's always coming, he's like, hey, look, guys, just the heads up. I can get in a lot of trouble for doing this, but I want you to know it's going to be good here, buddy. I'm going to take you. It's going to be good. That's his job. He's an angel. He's going over the grim reaper's head to be like this really great guy. He's coming tomorrow. Yeah. I'm here to chill you. I'm here to give you a heads up.

Yeah, cause you don't worry about it. You don't want the grim reaper just talking him with you. He's gonna show up. He'll be fine. Don't he's just big teddy bear. He pretends he's scary. Big grim. But he loves that outfit.

He'll come through. And then I'll be right there. I'll pick you up tomorrow at four. There you go. Good pajama boy. Good pajama. Like ignore the sights when he comes in. Yeah. The kids like what's that? It's like oh it's like he did a pair

of scissors that broke. Yeah. He carries just one scissor out. Like a giant guy's making his creepy again. But he just has one scissor. Just like, peace of mind the whole thing. He'll have no flesh on his face. I don't like you don't need to worry about that. You don't need flesh over here. It's okay. We don't... No skin care on this side. Just relinquish your flesh when you come. Yeah. This is the biggest thing I've ever seen. No.

It's like hell razor, which will make she know what she's... No. What song does this remind you of? What song does this... This... Anything. This grim reaper... Yeah, you have nothing in your repertoire for Grim Reaper rivals?

Not really, I'm okay. You're lacking. I am lacking. I'm trying to, yeah. Okay, think of it, Jeff. I'm trying to think of it, Jeff. I'm jamming too. Think of it.

Sing a song about the pajama boy. What would his theme song be when he came in? Uh, and pajama man. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I imagine. You let's write this song, I am. And then you just look at it. Not see you. Take you. And then pajama man. I imagine. Let's write this on the eye. I'm gonna say this little cut. Not save you.

Take you. And then pajama. Yeah, it just comes in. I'd be like, hell, get you. How the John starts playing on the piano. Oh, that would be great. Listen to me now. You're just in your bed like, I'm ready.

Let's go. Go be skin. Oh, that's pajama, man. That's pajama. That's it. And then he's like, now the grim reaper's coming by. Yeah. Again, it's a grim reaper. He's got to come. Yeah, how else are you going to go? He's got a pajama man. He's going to lie down the river. Wherever you are, pajama man, come get me.

You know what he has that? I don't want a grim reaper to pajama. He has to disconnect your relationship to this world. So just like, yeah. And then your soul and your body split. And then he plops your ass. I just made it up and you go floating down that river. Yeah, there's a boat. See after life. Yeah.

Yeah. The pajama man, they don't. I know there's a boat ride. There's a nice boat ride. I actually know an Indian spiritual about the boat ride. Oh, really? Oh, I like that. What?

What do you do? The spiritual that I sang when my grandpa died? I love that Oh my god, that is so spooky and pretty at the same time. I know. Oh, I love that All your Indian listeners are gonna be like what the hell? What's happening? They're just calling traffic jam. When my grandpa died, I love about like take me to the other side of the hell they're gonna happen. They just call it the traffic jam. I get that song when my grandpa died. I love that. And it's all about like take me to the other side of the shore.

That's beautiful. I love that. That was like so haunting. Ooh. Wow. Just gave us all the feels. That was crazy. We're all feeling all the feels all over.

All your Indian listeners are gonna be like, what the hell is making stuff? Don't smoke that in me. Don't smoke that in me. They're all like la la la. I love this music. I like stop.

I've listened to a few true crime podcasts before

and haven't gotten into them. But the way you tell these stories and the passion that you put into them really comes through in the way that they are presented. Alina, I feel you when you talk about sleep paralysis, I get it on near enough a nightly basis. And I like the fact that I'm not the only one. No, you're not. I can't imagine getting it on enough a nightly basis. I like the fact that I'm not the only one. No, you're not.

I can't imagine getting it on a near nightly basis. That's horrifying. That stinks. I'm pretty sure if I told my husband, he might divorce me. Ha ha. He already puts up with the sleepwalking. I'm comfortable laugh. Ha ha.

Ha ha. Guess what I do in your sleep, baby. He already puts up with the sleepwalking and talking and gets freaked out when I'm just staring at him in the middle of the night. I've done that to John before. Why? And if he looks at me, apparently I start laughing. Oh, even better.

I don't know. In a laugh, you don't normally do. And he's staying with me. Yeah. Yeah, kids with me. So like, he's really stuck. That's what she did on the first date. Yeah.

Stared him down, laughed at him. Stared him down the laughing. And he sat around. And he was like, I would like to get him. He's like, oh, I love this. I she did on the first date. Yeah, steered him down, laughed at him. Steered him down the left. And he said around and he was like, I was like, go, I love this. I love living on the end. He proposed right then. And that was it. He was like, this is it. This is the one. Yeah. Why would you not want the love of your life adoringly staring at you? Like she's possessed a 3 a.m. Exactly. 3 a.m. Again, 3 a.m. The witch hour. All the weird things happen at 3 a.m.

All of it. Right. A little bit about me. I'm weird things happen at three a. All of it. Right. A little bit about me. I'm from a small city in a rural part of England. I'm 37 year. I'm a 37 year old mother of three who decided at the age of. Same. Same girl. Twinsies.

Yeah, Becky. I decided at the age of 35 that I didn't know what to do with my life. Oh, yeah. They went to use. I don't know. When did with my life. Oh. Yeah. Right. When did you switch? When did this start four years ago? Yeah. So you were right around there. So you were going to change.

Have you seen one of these? Yeah. Did that in school? Yeah. So she didn't know what to do with her life. Then the grow up get married, have babies all worked out. But nobody had told me about what happens between now and happily ever after.

Ooh, so many women deal that. This is your story now. This is my story. I feel like oh shit. No one told me what happens after the kids are like big and then you have to find something to do for the rest of your life. Yeah, you don't think about it.

Yeah. Because your whole life is like them. Yeah, for that short time, you're like baby, baby, to more self-sufficient. So this is the opposite. She thought they required no time. It just like what? I thought I was gonna pop them up and be done. Yeah, that're like maybe tell more self-sufficient. This is the opposite. She thought they required no time. It just like I thought I was gonna pop them up and be done. Yeah, that's it and like three months later. I'd be back at work

Yeah, and did that how that worked out 10 years. Yeah, exactly. I feel that took a minute worked well So I decided to go to university. Oh good for you get it girl and do a nursing degree hell yeah Her children wear the ages 7 6 and 2 Day that the perfect time to go back to school Minor 7 and 2 7s and a 3 and holy yeah, I 12 and 9 and I'm just like yeah, okay, maybe just finally like wow I've worked at the hospital for 12 I had I've worked at the hospital for 12 years prior to starting and nine and I'm just like, okay, maybe. Just finally, like, wow.

I've worked at the hospital for 12, I've worked at the hospital for 12 years prior to starting my degree. So I've seen a few spooky things from time to time and heard many a story. This story, however, happened recently on a placement I had in another smaller, more rural hospital.

It's always in the rural hospitals. Rural, rural, rural juror. That's a mouth. Rural, rural, rural, rural, rural, rural, rural, rural, rural, rural, rural,. Rural, rural, rural, juror. That's a mouth. Rural, rural, rural. Rural, rural. Rural, rural. Rural, rural. Rural, rural.

Rural. Rural. Starting the night shift, obviously, everything was running smoothly until the ceiling fell through in one of the bays that some patients were in. Oh, nice. That's a disruption. If a ceiling's going to fall on you, better happen in the hospital is what I always say until the ceiling came to.

I know, but what a nice place to be. Yeah, I'd be hospital. You want to be there. You know, the casual stuff that happens in hospitals. We were rushing around to get the patients out and settled into a new area and phoning around to get someone from the maintenance team out to access the damage and condemn the bay until it could be fixed in the morning. Eventually, lights were turned off and the patients were settled in for a good night's sleep after the event that had just happened. We had tidied the bay and left it still with the equipment, patient

lockers and tables inside and shut the doors. A few hours later Jill, a member of the staff, went into the empty beta grab a piece of equipment that was left in there. Jill came out a bit confused and I asked her if she was okay. And she replied, when we left all the lockers were next to each bed space. Wasn't they? I said, yes, they were.

I put them there myself. She said, well, they are all in the middle of the room and the windows are open. Oh. Why do the windows keep opening? Is that an easy trick for the afterlites? It does. I can't open windows.

It seems like a difficult task. It does. Close the windows. Close the windows. Only the real will get that reference. For sure. For people. It all works out.

It all connects. Okay, where was I? I said, yes, I put them all there myself. She said, well, they're in the middle of the room and the windows are all open. I went with another member of the staff, Sarah, to have a look. When we got there, all the lockers were in the bed spaces like they were when I left them and all the windows were closed. Oh, yes.

They closed the window. Sarah came to an agreement that Jill must have been seeing things and thought nothing of it. I've seen a lot of things. Yes. A little while later, there was a cold breeze and it was coming from the empty bay. I asked Sarah to come with me to inspect it. As Jill said, she was not going into that room.

Jill knows what's up. I don't blame Jill on that one. We slowly walked towards the room. We stood there and shocked. All the windows were open. The emergency exit door was wide open and all the first strict they teach you in dead school. Oh, yeah, burst open all the windows and cabinets.

Yeah, back to Jill and her windows. Back to Jill. No, Jill didn't want to have. I just like I'm out. This is Sarah and what was her name? I can't remember her name. Becky. Becky, yeah. Becky.

All right. So I asked Sarah to come with me to inspect because Jill said she wasn't going into the room. We slowly walked towards the room. We stood there in shock. All the windows were open. The emergency exit door was wide open and all the curtains around the bay were pulled around.

We heard laughter. Oh. Children's laughter. Oh, no. We stood in silence for a few very long minutes and looked at each other in fright. I bravely walked in and shot the door and the windows. As I was doing this, I thought to myself,

well, if someone's in here and going to attack me, then bring it on, bitches. Oh, that keeps crazy. She also went back to school when she had three kids at home. She did. She's really, she's looking for a fight. She has a good hair too, I bet. For sure.

When they were all shut and it was obvious, no one was in the room, Sarah followed in and helped me to open all the curtains. We shut the door and headed to the nurse's station to tell all the rest of the staff what had just happened. With that, there was a loud bang and the other nurses were straight on their feet to check on the patients to make sure they were all okay. Sarah, Jill and I, however, looked at each other.

The three of us slowly walked to the empty bay and peered in the door. All the windows were open. What the f**k? Those kids are like, hey! like it's stuff in here. We're having a party. We made sure no humans come here. We broke the ceiling. Get out the ceiling. Yeah, get space.

Not going. All the lockers were moved to the middle of the bay and in one of the curtains, there was something. It looked like someone had got the end of the curtain and twisted themselves up in it. Oh, nice. It's like a form of somebody. Oh, I don't like that. Curtain shape. Not into that. Jill's response was, oh, good lord. Who is that? Then we heard it again, the children's laughter. That's like that. That's actual footage from Billy climbing curtains again. Sarah out of nowhere ran into the room with a

and full on rent. Karate kicked the curtain. Oh nice. Go Sarah. What if it's like an actual six child fell right through. She just Karate stopped. Sarah just blew out the window. The curtain instantly dropped and the laughter stopped. Oh they didn't like the fight. The curtain instantly dropped and the left are stopped. Oh, they didn't like the fight. That's like paranormal activity. Whatever one it is. The where it's like there's like a chic ghost. Yeah. And then when she goes to touch it, the whole thing falls in this nothing under there. That scares the shit out of me. That's what only that. That will scare the hell out of me. That scares the shit out of me. Yeah, that scares her. I don't need to see she goes to the Nautish East. You know, magicians can also do that. Scares the shit out of me.

They also scare her. That's true horror to me is a magician. With a red nose. With a red nose. I don't like that. I don't like it. I looked at Sarah and said, where the hell did that come from?

Sarah said she didn't know what came over her. It was the first thing that came into her head. Grady job. Really? A million things came into her head. Gratigop. Really? A million things went through my head and not one was that. We moved everything back into place, closed all of those. Why, why are they doing this?

And then? A little later on, me and Sarah together went to get some food from the vending machines, walking past reception, we said hello to the receptionist who slowly looked up at us. She looked very relieved and said, how has your night been girls? Mine has been terrible. I'm too scared to look up from my desk. I keep hearing children laughing and I'm so frightened. I keep trying to figure out where it's coming from, but there is nowhere in the hospital. But there is nowhere the hospital is all closed now and

we don't have the children's word where can it be coming from. We stood and spoke to her a while telling her about our night. When the night shift housekeep came she looked like she had just literally seen a ghost. Or a few. Or a few. The out of ours department was now closed and she was cleaning the individual rooms and locking them as she finished. This one room. They were unlocking. Mm-hmm. This one room had a heavy chair in the corner of the room.

One a bit like a dentist chair is how she's described it. She left locked the door and carried on when she had got to another room. She realized she had left her antibacterial spray in the last room and went back to retrieve it. When she opened the door, the heavy chair in the last room and went back to retrieve it when she opened the door The heavy chair in the corner of the room was now smack bang in the center of the room. Oh Why do they move everything when no one's looking because they can level skill like you can't move when people are looking You should do it when they're looking they're embarrassed Yeah

Because like in case it's heavy Look I can barely move I'm like a barely move the chair It's still like I'm a ghost. Yeah, it's not gonna be intimidating. I can't be struggling Yeah, it won't be scary. You can't even move that chair. You use this bugger come back next to it Bamboom effect when it's just there Yeah, like all the windows are open ghosts are all about the pizzazz Yeah, like the truly scary thing would be to watch it You but they can't move it they call seven of them them needs. Hey, come on Joe. Come on. This is really heavy

They have to call their friends. Yeah, it's too much. That's a big it's a big to do. It's a production. Oh, man Okay, so she ran out and she heard children's laughter and that's when we saw her coming up Funny kids. I know It's this face What do we like are you guys watching blue's this face. What do you mean? Are you guys watching Bluey? Because if you are, can I also watch Bluey? Yeah, I don't look that three-year-old moved a chair, and they're all scared.

That's hilarious. That's really bad. They're laughing because they're scared. I'm laughing at the adults. That are the adults. The adults. Throughout the remainder of the night, we had to go into the bay to close the windows

a few more times and still heard the children's laughter. I can honestly say I've never had an experience like this before. Like I said before, I've heard a few stories and have had a few moments but nothing like this. For the remainder of my time, nothing else happened. I honestly don't think I would have been that scared if it wasn't for the laughing children. Keep it weird, but not so weird that you don't believe that one of your colleagues is seeing, but then see it all for yourself. Then go and karate kick a curtain

that probably landed on a ghost child's head. Then you tell your story and find out they also have been terrorizing the rest of the building. Bye. They were busy. Damn, they were not only doing that one room. They were running around circuits. I love that ghost kids just like, are like, hot little kids. They're like, doing that one room. They're running around circuits. I love that ghost kids just like

Yeah They are all happy That I know what's worse than just here. Yeah, just kids I know what's worse than a kid. Imagine you just hear, yeah, just kids crying. Like a soft kid is way better than a soft. What is a soft kid? Soft kid just said, No, that would be the end of me.

And then they started poking you in the back. And then when you went to take your jacket, your jacket was already being worn by a form. Oh my God. So help me. Yeah, I don't like that. I would like that. Because nothing's worse than a crying child.

Like it'll just destroy my soul. Like, I don't like that. I would like that. Because nothing's worse than a crying child. Like it will just destroy my soul. Like, I just want to help it. That's the soundtrack on the boat. Yeah. Well, to hell. Yeah. Just crying children. Crying children.

But tortured crying. Yeah. That makes them crying dead children. Yeah. That's so much worse. The worst. Okay. At least I feel okay about this.

I want to start a podcast where we make noises. Can you sing that? You want to start a cool? Yeah, like can you can you make that sound? No, no, a crying dead child. Oh, what does that sound like? Oh, yeah, this is good. We'll just do sound effects.
