The Confessionals - 268: The Family Witch

Episode Date: September 15, 2020

In Episode 268: The Family Witch, we are joined by Marlene who shares her family's experiences with a witch. It began when Marlene's uncle needed to visit "Don Julia," a rumored witch in Mexico. As he approached the dwelling of the witch, he saw a giant black and gray vulture glide off the roof, and turn into a tiny old lady! As Marlene shares her family’s stories, you‘ll notice that they are very similar to Abe's experiences from Episode 13: A Witch Doctor’s Request! The striking resemblance will give you a strange reality check, knowing that these practices appear to be more common than one might think!

This was all circulating around the base that a giant had to kill, but no one was supposed to talk about it. I saw three long, bony fingers reach up underneath the door, curl up to grab it, and then disappeared. When he came over to me, dude, he slithered over to me. And this giant comes out of the cave and they're all frozen. And he starts running and firing at this giant. With a giant move, he's got a spear in one hand, and he's running really fast. And spears, Dan, holds him up like this. Somebody else, shoot him in the face, shoot him in the face.

They basically decapitated. Feel something pulling at my leg. And I look over, and there are two small, gray entities, pulling it. And they're literally, I'm getting pulled off the bed. I reached my hand into this bush, and I touch air. Couldn't breathe. And I couldn't move because I know I'm seeing a monster. Yep.

Today we have Marlene coming on the show and Marlene is going to share her experiences. And one of the experiences is dealing with a family witch. That's right, a family witch.

And her story has a lot of similarities to Abe's story from episode 13. If you remember Abe's story from episode 13, he went and visited and stayed with a witch doctor as payment for healing his brother. Well, she has a different story, but very similar at the same time. So let's get to it right now. All right. Today we got Marlene on the show. Marlene. How are you? I'm doing good. How are you? I'm doing great. I'm doing great. I mean, I actually, this has nothing do with your story, but you just ask me. I feel like talking about it. I just went to my buddy today, George Bruno, and he shaped up my beard for me. And he's a world famous hair stylist beard guy. He has a YouTube channel that has 140,000 subscribers, and he lives local to me. And him and I actually

went live on his YouTube channel and my Instagram channel today. And it was just a good time. So I'm all energized and pumped up today. And so I'm really glad that you're here to talk about your experiences because you actually have some unique things to talk about. One, we're going to just call it a family which will let you define it from there, but there is some type of which experience going on within your family. And then we're going to go transitioned into some other smaller stuff. But one of the things we're going to transition into is an alien experience. And I didn't know that, but you just dropped that on before we started recording.

I was like, let's do this. I'm excited. So Marlene, walk us into this experience. this entire thing when it comes to the witch stuff. I know it kind of starts with your mom and her kind of telling you guys, different stories. So what's going on? So when I was a little girl, my mom would tell me, you know, don't take candy from people because it could be poisoned or, you know, it could just, it's bad for you.

And plus she never really let us have any candy anyway. So she would always hide it away. And one day, when we were in Mexico, there was this little old lady who, you know, was handing out candy. And she had her own little, like a cart filled with just treats and just a bunch of stuff to attract kids. And me and my sister had got nothing of it. And we were like, Mom, we want candy. And she was like, no, she was like persistent. No, we will not be buying anything from here.

You know where the candy is. We got some at home, you know, the whole bit. And so when we got to my grandma's house in Mexico, she had told us that most the time, little old ladies like that are witches. And, you know, we're seven, eight years old. We were like, that's a bunch of, just a bunch of nonsense. Like, there's no such thing. But it's your mom.

So you kind of have to, like, believe her. So as we grew up, you know, little things started happening to us, you know, just random. Like, so, for example, one day I came home with like a bouquet of flowers. and brought them inside the house, put them in water, went outside to go grab more stuff from the car because I've just gone home from shopping and went inside and my flowers were wilted. They were completely dead. And I didn't understand why. So I called my mom and I was like, Mom, I don't know what's happening. My flowers, I literally just bought them. They're dead now. And she was like, somebody hates you, somebody put a curse on you, you need to call.

And so we know a white witch. And she usually helps us out with things that are going on in our life. And we'll call her at random. And she will be like, okay, so somebody in your family has put something bad on you. You need to do this, do that. You need a shower with holy basil and do all this other nonsense. And we do it. And, you know, sometimes you do feel something, sometimes you don't.

But most of the time, it does help out. So it sounds crazy, I know. So I had called her about it. And yeah, that's what she told me. The lady, she said that somebody in my family didn't want me to be happy, that they were putting some type of wrongdoing on me so I could live my life miserable. And I, at that moment, I was like, okay, this is crap. Like, this is not true.

But then I started piecing things together. So my sister used to call me, good luck, Chuck. I don't know if you've seen that movie. It's about a guy who dates women. And then every time he hooks up with them, the next person they find they get married. So that happened to me a lot. I would date a guy and we would be talking. It'd be fine.

and then like they would just not be interested anymore and then they would find somebody else, then get married, have kids, whatever, happy story. Every time. And then I was like, why do I keep having all this bad luck with meeting people? Like even with friends, like I would meet a really cool, like, person to hang out with, new friend. And then they would like leave or something shady would happen. And I wasn't understanding it.

And so the lady, the white witch, told, me, it's because somebody hates you. Somebody in your family is doing you wrong and you need to just stay away, keep your distance from everybody until all this goes away. And she had told me that there is a demon that was following in me in my house, but they, they wouldn't go into my room because my room, like they, she said that my aura was too bright, that I was lit up like a Christmas and that I carried my like I carried myself well and that I was just too positive too happy and that this thing would just didn't know how to get near me and I would I would feel it in my house I would feel the heavy tension throughout the whole house even so me and my sister

have this like you get that good feeling bad feeling and she said that Every time she would walk into my room, she would feel a lot lighter. But going to the rest of the house, she just felt super heavy, super drained, and just, like, loss of energy. And, like, we, I don't know, it was just weird. We would stage the house religiously because we always felt like something was off. And so the White Witch had told us that, yeah, that something was in the house that wouldn't leave us alone. And so, you know, a couple days past weeks and I finally noticed that the energy level was changing in my house that, you know, I didn't feel like somebody was watching me constantly. And so then I was hanging out with my cousin. I'm not going to mention her name.

And she had introduced me to her friend. And my friend's name is Stephanie. And so I became close to Stephanie, and my cousin would get mad, get jealous, because I would hang out with Stephanie so much. And which made no sense to me because we all hung out together. And so one day, like out of nowhere, we were talking about my cousin and how her mom is into dark magic. Like she practices it at her house. She has her little stuff. And she had told me she was like, has, has, I don't know what to call her,

I'm just gonna call her B. She said, has B ever mentioned that to you about how her mom is into all that? And I was like, yeah, actually, my mom had told me about it because that's why I don't hang out with her as much as I used to because she does all that dark stuff and I'm just that's it makes me uncomfortable and so so you know

that conversation ended and we because we were a little freaked out by it so one day me and my mom were talking and since me and Stephanie had brought up that conversation I asked my mom I was like did you know anybody in your town that did, you know, dark magic or practiced witchcraft? And she was like, yeah, Donia Julia used to be the witch of the town. And she would torture people or just be, she was just crazy. She was the crazy person in the town. Everybody knew her. Everybody knew not to mess with her because she would, if you looked at her funny,

she would do something. Like she would just be awful. And she had even put a lizard in a priest's leg. And he would say, there goes Donya Julia doing her crazy stuff again. And he had to get the lizard removed out of his leg. I don't know how that's even possible. But my mom saw it.

And she was there to witness that. And I'm. She had told me that Donia Julia had helped my grandma with some stuff because she was part of the family in some twisted way, I don't know. And my grandma was pregnant with twins and she was having a hard time with labor. And Donia Julia was there to assist her to tell her that, you know, she was like, it's fine. Don't worry. Everything will be fine. as long as you give me one of the twins.

And my grandma was like, you're crazy. I'm not going to do that. And so the time came, my grandma had her twins, both healthy girls. And Donia Julia was like, okay, it's time. Like I want one of the twins. You have to let me be godmother of one of the twins because that's my right. I helped you throughout these times. It's my right to be godmother of one.

one of them and my grandma was like, no, that's not going to happen. And she was like, okay, well, we shall see. So at that time, my Donya Huya was upset with my grandmother and would chase my mom around. And can you imagine just this little old lady offering candy to kids and just being awful with my mom? She said that one day Donia Julia had offered her candy and my mom refused. And she said, no, I don't want any. And so Donia Julia got mad at her and told her if she doesn't take the candy, then she's going to come for her at night. And my mom was like, that's not funny.

Whatever. And my mom was a kid. She was like, no, that's impossible. So my mom was like, I want to see you try. So now my mom's testing this little old lady. And so Donia Julia starts chasing after my mom. And my mom's like, well, she's old. How fast can she actually run?

She said that she was on her tail and nonstop. Like she wasn't even panting. She wasn't even like. And she said that. that she walked so gracefully over everything as if she wasn't old. My mom said it gave her the ugliest chills, and she was just gliding over objects. And, you know, in Mexico, there's no roads.

There's, it's all dirt, gravel, everything. And she would glide over these little streams and giant rocks. And my mom's running to her house. She finally made it to her house. And my, her uncle appeared and was like, going yahuia, you know better than to mess with with these girls. You need to leave. And she was like, okay, I'll be back. So some time had passed and my mom's uncle saw a giant, they call them, there's a word for it in Spanish. But it's like a giant owl. And there was this

massive owls sitting outside of my grandma's house, just staring at everybody who passed by. And so my mom's uncle was like, Donya Julia, you need to get down from there. You need to leave. And supposedly, the bird flew down to like a nearby, like shrub and that it turned into Donia Julia. And my mom said that her uncle was so freaked out that he had like, he didn't even think that was possible. But she had transformed into a bird, you know, and I don't know. And to me, my mom was like, I looked at my mom was like, that's, that's, that's bogus. But I remember you talking about there was a witch who had transformed into an,

an animal and I feel like, I feel like that, you know, that it could be true. So. Yeah, shapeshifters do that. I mean, yeah, I mean, yeah, obviously shapeshifters, but skin walkers is what I'm trying to say. Skinwalkers do that. And there's countless of other accounts. And before you go any further, I got to tell you what you're telling me, I know you say,

I know it sounds crazy, but on episode 13, of this show, we had a guy on, on his name was Abe, and he told a very close to almost mirror story as to what you're telling me now. Only he was the two-year-old that had to stay with the witch doctor because of that witch doctor healing his brother. That's crazy. Yeah. So continue. I just wanted to share that with you because it's, it's incredible. I mean, that's, I mean, that's what she was. You know, she, she would heal people, but she would also do horrible things to people. And so, you know, my mom finished the story with, you know, it's not good to mention her name at a certain day because she could, I guess, I don't know, like, show you that she's there or that she's, like, every time you mention her name, she will somehow prove to you that she is still existing somehow. And so I held on to that story and I, um, I, met up with my friend Stephanie and at that time my cousin had um left to uh to the navy and so it was just me

and stephanie we would hang out all the time so i went to pick her up one day and i had that story in my head and they was just circling and i was and i was feeling really uneasy and i had told her we're sitting in the car for I being to the gym and I was like so my mom had told me about this story and I was like there's this witch donya huya and then she stopped me she was like what and she said that in her town when she was in Mexico there was also a donya huya completely different places. And I feel like somehow it's the same person because I get this chill that it could be the same person, but it's in different places. And it's probably around the same time too. So she was telling me about her, Gonia Julia, how she was a witch and how in her family,

there's also witches who practice dark magic. And she's like, that's crazy. That's crazy, right? And I was like, yeah, that's crazy. So we changed the subject. We're trying to change the mood because we're both freaked out in the car. And it's at night where it's 9 o'clock at night and it's super dark out. So we're just trying to set the mood and, you know, get ready for the gym.

And then she screams. She's sitting right next to me and I'm driving. And I'm like, why are you screaming at me? And she's like, no, something touched me. something touched me in the car. And so I stopped the car, I put it on park side of the road. And she tells me that something grazed her, like something touched her hair. And I'm like, what touched you?

And she's like, I don't know, do I have something in my hair? And she had like somebody had pulled out her ponytail. She had a big old bump in her head. And I'm like, no, you're just your ponytail's messed up. It could have been the seat. You know, I'm like trying to lighten the mood. I'm like, it's probably the seat or something, you know? And she's like, you're right, you're right.

She's like, but it really did feel like somebody grabbed me and pulled my hair. And I'm like, well, it's probably, you know, it's your imagination. You're fine. You're, let's just go to the gym and we'll be fine. So we, you know, at the gym, we got out in like an hour and back in the car we go. And it's feeling super heavy in my car. And we're, it's just, I don't know, it's weird. There's tension in the car.

It feels like people, like there's like, there's, like, It feels like somebody's watching us. And I have a small car. I have a little Nissan versus note. I mean, not many people can fit in here. So I'm just like, what's going on? This energy is weird. And we're sitting there in the car and we have no music on.

And she's like, okay, I feel it again. I feel like something just touched my hair again. So I turn on the light and I turn around. Nothing's there. And I'm like, but then I do notice her hair. Like something had touched her hair. And I'm like, okay, your hair's messed up again. Something's wrong.

And she's, she's like freaking out. She has chills all over her body. She is pale. And I pulled over again. And I'm like, what's going on? And she's like, I don't know, but I keep getting chills. Our whole, like, even my body, I'm getting chills now as I talk about it. Because it's really, it was really weird energy.

It's just heavy. It was just weird. And then so I remember the story my mom told me about Donya Julia, wanting one of my grandma's twins. So my cousin's mom, you know, it's my mom's sisters, they're twins. Donia Julia wanted one of them. My cousin's mom practices dark magic.

Doni Julia practices dark magic. I don't know if somehow Donya Julia took one of the twins, made her evil because maybe I don't know if that's a thing. Well, one of my aunts, she's like the sweetest person and the other one, she's just mean. I mean, she's the one who practices dark magic. And she always tells my mom, like, she's like, one day you'll get it, you'll get it. And she hates my mom. They're always just fighting and just arguing about dumb stuff.

and she's always looking out. My mom is, because she knows she's like something, something's up with her. And I know, like, we just got to keep away from people like that. And so I told Stephanie, maybe my cousin is also into dark magic. And she's like, I don't know what it is, but something's in this car. So I remember I used to hang out with, with, with, with, with, with, with, all the time. And she would leave like little stuff in my car, like trash or random stuff. And they say like small objects can carry energy.

So I quickly, you know, open up all the windows. I am digging through the console, digging through everything to try to find something that would belong to my cousin. And I found a small little bottle of flicker, her favorite liquor. I grabbed it and immediately we both just get the horrible chills. We can't even speak. We feel so much tension in the car. We go to the gasoline station, throw it in the trash.

We are like praying. We are saying everything we can. so this little thing can go away and we're driving off and we don't feel it anymore. So I don't know if that small little bottle contained some type of something from my cousin, but I feel like it's somehow all connected to Donya Julia, who took my aunt as a baby, made her into this evil person creating more evil people. And I don't know, I feel like it's all related because, I mean, I don't know, I don't

know, I, it's a feeling, I guess. And my mom even said so. She said that my aunt, as a little girl, she was always trouble. She was always into, you know, getting involved into all that stuff, all that dark, dark magic and practicing everything. She was just into all that. And so I feel like maybe Lonia Julia put a little piece of herself into my aunt, which is, and then which is making, I don't know, maybe my cousin hate me. or to cause some type of something, energy to follow me throughout the house, I don't know. It's crazy.

And I don't know what to think of it because sometimes I think about, overthink about it. And I'm just like, no, it's, it's all crazy. It's all nonsense. I don't think that's possible. But then sometimes I'm like, okay, well, it could be that somebody is really out there to get me. and they won't leave me alone. So I hope that that's, I hope that that's it. Maybe I could just stay away from them as much as possible.

Even though our family reunions are like the worst, there's always so much tension throughout the whole family. Yeah, I mean, I can understand family tension there, you know? So, you know, I would say that I don't, I personally, I mean, I don't know. I mean, who am I, right? but I personally don't believe that any human being can control another human being their entire life in a mystical way. I think everybody has their own choices that they have to make.

Maybe there was an influence. Maybe there was even spells cast that would help promote the continuing. But I don't know if it's exactly like. I'm going to remotely control this person for their entire life. You know what I mean? Yeah. So it's very interesting, though. It's very interesting.

And I find the story for me personally amazing because you're the first person who's ever mirrored that story that I had on episode 13. I mean, that's in the beginning of the show back in 2017, early of 2017. And I've talked to a lot of people since then. more than we've have episodes. And I've never had somebody mirror what he had to say so closely. You know, I've heard bits and pieces. But, I mean, he was that kid that had to stay.

I think it was two. And I think he had to stay for six months. And he described talking about how when he had to go back home with his mom and his mom came to get him, like he almost forgot who she was and he wanted to stay with the old lady. And, I mean, it just, that spawns so much stuff in his life. It's absolutely amazing that you. And the thing is, like, he's from Texas as well. And he's Mexican as well.

Yeah. It happens to a lot of Latin cultures. Yeah. So do you think that it's something to do with actually being, like, Mexican? Or do you think that it's just the region of the country slash the world that lends to this kind of stuff happening? But because it seems like a lot of Mexican culture talks about these kind of things. Do you think it's the Mexican aspect of things or do you think it's the geographical aspect? I feel like it's more of the Mexican thing because I mean, throughout my life, I've heard a bunch of stories.

You know, from my mom, from my aunts, from my sister-in-law, she supposedly has experienced like a little grimly. person sitting above her head floating there, staring at her at night. And I mean, I don't know, I feel like it's more of a Mexican thing because I don't ever hear anybody else talking about this. Let's take a break right now and talk about SimplySafe. That's our sponsor for today's show. SimpliSafe is a proud supporter of the Confessionals. And I personally am a proud supporter of SimplySafe for years now. Here's the thing about Home Security Systems. Most trap you with high price. Tricky contracts and lousy customer support. So while there are a lot of options out there, there's only one real no-brainer, and that's Simply Safe. Now, I have had SimplySafe for years now

since I've been a homeowner. And the thing is with SimplySafe is I hear that they say, it's so easy. You just peel the back off. You stick the devices on the windows, doors, whatever you want to do. You hook it up. It's so simple. You can do it yourself within an hour. And I was like, okay, I get it. You're trying to sell me something, but I'll believe it when I see it kind of thing. I got simply safe and I didn't get simply safe because I was like, you know, this is the best option for me or anything else like that. I got simply safe because I could afford it. It starts to $15 a month. But I got it at the house and it sat on the table for a few days probably until the weekend because I didn't want to deal with it because I really didn't believe

that it was that simple that would only take me like an hour to set up my house for home security. And it was a Saturday. My wife went out probably shopping or something like that. I decided that I was going to do this reluctantly because I figured I'd be there until 9 o'clock in night putting everything together, but I had to get it done. I started it up. Literally within an hour, my whole house was taken care of. Before my wife got home from shopping, the house was hooked up to SimpleSafe, and I was really impressed. And ever since then, I've been a proud customer of SimpliSafe, and I'm really happy that SimpliSafe is sponsoring the show. Head to Simplysafe.com slash confessionals.

It's interesting because when I was, and I might have said this on the show before, but I know I don't say nearly as much as other things, so I'll say it again. But when I was younger, I was in my early 20s, I worked in a car garage and one of the mechanics

that I worked with, him and I, you know, got to talking about different weird topics and he's Mexican. And he got on this topic of talking about the legends and the folklore, per se, from Mexico. And I didn't know if he was pulling my leg or I still don't know because I haven't had one person that's Mexican come to me and say they have heard the same thing. So maybe he was lying to me. But he told me that there's this idea that, I guess, maybe it wasn't even Mexico, maybe it was some other country in Southern America, but that there would be a leprechaun

that comes and rapes the girls when they turned 16. And he believed this, like, as far as I could tell, he believed this beyond a shadowed down. Like, I was laughing at him, and he was straight face. I'm like, bro, you're crazy. Like, no, that doesn't happen, but he was dead serious. But the more I talk to people, I talk to people from all aspects of life. And when I talk to people from Mexican descent, they have a lot of stories like yours

and maybe not Mexican raping 16-year-old girls. But it's this idea that it seems like very much more open and ingrained into your culture than other cultures would have it. Yeah. It's true. I mean, I've never heard that story before about the leprechaun. That's a little crazy. But I mean, everybody has their own experiences. Everybody has their own stories. But definitely. I, like I said, throughout my childhood, I would hear, I mean, stories upon stories about random things happening and just these, I don't even know. Like, people believe in fairies out there. Like, it's crazy. My, I remember my grandma said that she would, like, these little tiny things would appear in her house taking food.

And I'm like, what, what little things? What are you talking about? Like, you're talking about, like, mice, little critters. And she's like, no, like, these things would come to my house and you could see them take food at night. And I'm like, that's a bunch of, that's a bunch of crazy. stuff. But I mean, everybody, everybody has, everybody has their experiences, I guess. And I don't know. It's, it's crazy to me. Yeah, I can understand how you feel like it sounds crazy. But then again, I think it's an, I think it's Ireland. I should know this by now. But I think it's Ireland where

they really do believe in fairies. I mean, you're not a lot of build roads in certain areas because that's where the fairies live. Oh, yeah. I've heard of that. Yeah. I mean, it's no joke. It's no joke. So that's what I mean.

Cultures are very interesting. I find the Mexican culture so interesting. Plus, I love the cuisine. So I love food. Yeah. And, you know, I'm Puerto Rican. And, you know, Puerto Ricans have their own type of food and stuff. But the Mexican, it's just, oh, I love it.

Yeah. I don't know what they put in food. it could be beer. Whatever. Keep it coming. So, but yeah, I, I, um, I don't know. I think it's interesting, though. I really do.

Uh, so that's that story. And we're going to transition to Oklahoma, I believe, where you had an experience with what you, I guess, can only describe as an alien, right? Yeah. Um, oh gosh, this, see, this was, this was when I was, when I was. I was a kid too. I was maybe, I'm going to say I was eight. And it was a group of us. It was all my cousins. We were all together in a little minivan. And my family owned like 200 acres of land out there and, you know, their giant house and just in the middle of nowhere. Beautiful, beautiful. So they had two restaurants out there. And we were driving back to their house and, you know, their dirt roads, all in the minivan, all those kids just laughing, having a blast. And their dogs were outside of their house.

And, I mean, their house, you've got to drive at least like three blocks to get to their house. And, I mean, you go through trees and all that stuff. And their dogs were barking at the car. So we all jumped out so that way we could, you know, hold them off so that we can pull the cars in. But the gate wasn't opening. And we were like, okay, well, none of the remotes work. You can't open it manually. So we had to wait outside while the rest of the family came.

And it was, I think it was like 12 o'clock at night. And so all these kids were like, heck yeah, we all get to stay up and be outside, look at the the stars. It's super cool. Like, we're, you know, we're kids, so we were having a blast. And the dog just kept barking at like something random. And they would run off and come back, run off and come back. And the house was, I mean, everything was so dark. None of the lights were on. And so my cousin said that he was going to go turn on the lights for the fence and the house. So that way we could, we could see what was out there. So we're sitting there on the fence waiting to see, you know, what would happen, stargazing, looking up at the, all the stars.

You know, it's so dark out, so it's beautiful. And there's maybe one street light. And we're all looking at the street light because it's just this massive light. It was super bright. And usually it's not that crazy bright, but we're like, like, look how crazy, how bright it is. gosh like look at the stars and and then we noticed that the the light post moved and we're like uh i don't think that's what it's supposed to do but it's moving and it moved maybe i mean it's far from us it's again like the it's one light post for every road and we could like we could barely see it

so um we could just see the light and so we see that the light and so we see that the The light, there's two lights now. And we're like, did they put a new one? Or is it supposed to be like what's going on? And so like all those kids are talking about it. The adults are, there's only, I think there was only two adults there. Not the rest of us. We're all kids.

And we're all like, okay, the light is moving upward now. And it's, it's moving super slow. So we're just there staring at it. And then my cousin goes, It's an alien. And we all like freak out. We're like, no, it's not. It's probably just, you know, like somebody's coming, like a truck is coming because

that's how far it was. It was blocks away. It's just we could barely see the light post, but we could see the light, just not the light post. We're like, it's probably a car that's moving forward or like an airplane. You know, it probably has a spotlight. It's coming towards us. We're going to hear it in a second, but it was quiet.

You could hear cricket. Like we couldn't hear any, anything, just, and we're like, uh, maybe it's an airplane. Maybe it's up in the sky. It's an airplane, you know, it'll, it'll move. It'll, it'll probably leave. But this light was brighter than the light post. The light from the light post was so dull. It was like a yellowy color.

It was like an orangey yellow. But this light was, like it was fluorescent. It was beautiful. And we're all like, no, you know, it doesn't look like an airplane. And it was like the shape of a kind of, it looks like the shape of an egg, but it was just bright. And then it moved to downward. And we're like, okay, so it's moving now. And we were all just literally just staring at this thing.

It just kept moving up and down and side to side. And we're like waiting for something to happen. And so now it's getting closer to us. It's just moving slowly, but it's moving closer to us. And we're all a bit away from the vehicles and we're far from the house. So we're like, where do we run to? And we all start screaming to the van. And we're like, get in, get in.

The aliens are coming. And we see it like swoop downward, shoot up like really fast, and then stay there for another while. And then it just turns off. And then the whole street is dark again. Because this thing was lighting up. You could see the house with how bright this light was. It was ridiculous. And we were like, and then even my mom was like, what happened to the light?

And we're like, the alien just left. Like, did you not notice? Did you not see that? And she was like, no, what? That was probably, the light probably just turned off. I was like, mom, the lights are still on. Like that, like, how do you explain that? And she was like, nobody believed us.

We're all just kids, you know? So we're just talking nonsense to them. But this light literally went up and just, it turned off. And the whole light turned pitch black again. pitch black. And then by that time, my cousin had come back with all, turned on all the lights. And we were just, like, we were so shocked. We were staring up at the sky to see if something else would happen. Nothing else happened. And we were just like, what did we witness? So then the next day came. And it was another late night. But this time we did make it into the house. But we were,

We were still talking about the whole whatever that light was, that egg in the sky. That's what we kept calling it. And we were, so we, so they have two porches. And there's one in the front, one in the back. We sat in the back one with all the lights off. All the adults were gone. It was just us kids again. And, you know, we would see shooting stars.

We would see just craziness again. We were staring at the light again to see what else we could, what else we could capture as kids, you know, and what else we can get ourselves in to. We all had our own, like, walkie-talkie, too. So there's people in the front, people in the back. And we're like, hey, any movement, anything going on?

They're like, no. And then, I mean, there's, you know, there's a bunch of wild animals. So we're, you know, we're like, we're going to probably see a deer or two. But, I mean, nothing, nothing. There was just, it was all quiet. And so then since I was sitting in the back porch, just watching over the acres, a bunch of trees, there was this bright light that was shining from like a distance.

And I'm like, okay, the neighbors, you know, maybe they're out out there. Or I don't know, it's 12 something o'clock at night. It's probably, I don't know, my cousin with a flashlight. And it just stayed there for the longest time. And then it just turned off. And then so I thought nothing of it. And so in the morning I had asked my cousin, like, hey, do you have a light out there in the woods or something? He's like, no, there's literally just cows out there.

And I was like, there's no light post. or like random, or were you out there? Or is there like your neighbor's house out there? And he's like, no, there's nothing there, Marlene. What are you talking about? I'm like, there's a light out there again. As bright as the light we saw, that was by the light posts. And he's like, no, now you're just talking nonsense.

And I'm like, no, there was something there. And like, I mean, that was the last I saw of the light, which was. probably like the to me was the craziest alien experience I've had and I still I still keep thinking about it and I'm like

no like maybe it was just an it was just an airplane it was probably just a helicopter or something I don't know yeah it probably wasn't though I mean what do you think this stuff is I mean, when you sit back and you think about, like, UFOs and aliens, I mean, do you believe that aliens are from another universe?

Or do you even believe in aliens? I mean, what are your thoughts on it? I do believe in aliens. I mean, I've heard enough to know. I mean, and it's, I mean, I just feel like it's, it's kind of obvious they do exist, you know? There's just so much going on in this world. They can't cover them up forever. There's a bunch of crazy stuff out there that.

we will never be able to explain. I mean, when I saw them, I obviously was like, okay, well, aliens are real. It's real. It's a thing. It's a thing that we're not talking about, but it's a thing. Yeah, I can understand what you're saying. I mean, for me, I think about that stuff too.

Obviously, I have the show. And, you know, I just think that I don't know what I think. Because I hear so many people's opinions and thoughts on these topics. And some people present really good thoughts and opinions on these topics, you know? And they differ from other people that I've talked to that have really good thoughts and opinions. And so I'm left in a situation where I can see multiple outcomes to what these things could be,

but I'm okay with whatever they are. You know what I mean? Like, not that I'm okay with them specifically, but whatever they are, I'm okay with it being that. Yeah. You know, and it's just like the universe is so gigantic. And then to think that there are other universes out there, you know, or not universe, galaxies, it gets at a point where you're like, well, yeah, I mean,

maybe there really is other life out there. Could we really be the only life out there? You know, if you're talking. We're definitely not. I mean, if you're talking about like, From an evolutionary standpoint, almost certainly not. I mean, if you hit the lottery once here and there's that much out there, then certainly the lottery was hit again.

You know, and if you're talking about a theological standpoint, you can't say that there are no extraterrestrials like alien beings because that would be you saying that you know what God's plan is and that, you know, God is, it's beyond God to do such a thing. Well, you can't say that. You can't. So it kind of puts you in a situation where it's like, well, I don't know what they are, but people are experiencing something. So whether it's extraterrestrial aliens, it's a time traveler or a demon, and whatever

it is, people are experiencing something. And not just these beings, but these, what's often tied to these beings, which is these crafts that people see and these lights in the sky. Especially, I mean, and then like in the middle of nowhere, Oklahoma, you know, know, just acres of land that's not been touched because it's, I don't know, it's, it's obvious something has to be there, not just no cows and deer and animals. But yeah, it's, so I also have this one experience in Oklahoma. It was for the 4th of July. I don't, I don't, I don't I'm not sure what it was, but it was, you know, us kids again.

And my cousins who were teens, a little older than us, and we had bought a bunch of fireworks. We're all, you know, super excited to blow stuff up, you know, as kids, that was our favorite time. And since, you know, they lived in the middle of nowhere, we were like, let's blow stuff up. Let's start popping some fireworks. And so we took everything outside. All of us were super excited. And then out of nowhere, we start hearing Native American, like, tribe music playing. Like if it was right next to us, like, it's just right smack in front of us.

And it was so loud, we had to like scream at each other. We're like, do you hear that? hear that? And it's just nonstop, like, banging on drums. And, like, you could hear, like, people chanting. It was crazy loud. And we're like, that's pretty cool. Like, what's going on? Like, did you have a recording of that? Maybe the truck is on or something. And, like, none of the cars were on. There was no TVs on. It sounded like it was outside. And so we're like, maybe the neighbors, you know. But it sounded like it was getting closer to us.

And so we're like, maybe they're passing in the middle of the street at night, at like 9 o'clock at night. So it's super dark. Like I said, we only had one light outside in the street. And it was blocks away from the house. So we're like, maybe we should drive out there and see if we could find whatever this noise is. And we just keep hearing it. We were driving super slow to try to get out to the gate,

to get out into the street, Main Street. And like we had no music on, windows down. We're all like hearing it. We're like, we still hear it. Do you hear? We're like, yeah. We're like, okay, so we're not all dreaming this. It's really happening.

We're like, okay, let's go look for this beautiful ceremony that they're having for the 4th of July. And so we're driving out there. We look like crazy people because we're literally the only ones on the road. driving maybe like at five because we don't want to you know cause any interruptions we don't want to be rude to them or whatever they're doing and we're just driving super slow and we're like well maybe it's the casino you know maybe they're playing really loud music but the casino is miles away and i'm telling you this sound it was like it was in the car with us like it was following us We felt like crazy people because we're like, are we the only ones?

Do you hear it? Like, are you sure we're hearing this? And we're like, yeah, like we all literally hear it. And we're driving and nothing. So we drove back home and we're sitting, we're all standing in the middle of the field, looking confused, like scratching our heads because we're not sure where this noise is coming from. And I'm telling you, this. this ceremony, whatever's going on, their chanting is loud. I'm telling you, there's trees all

around us. There's no lights. There's no, like, you could see if there's like little flickrings of fire, nothing. There's nothing. It's pitch black. There's a cow and horses, but I mean, they're not going to, like what, and we have no idea what's going on. So we're just standing there in the middle of, you know, their acres. And we're like, maybe it's in the backyard. So we walk to the backyard. We all grab flashlights, put on our mud boots. We're walking and we try to get, you know, far, but it still sounds like it's, it's right next to us. It sounds like we have, like, headphones on because that's how loud it is.

And we're still like, do you, do you still hear it, right? We're like, yeah, we still hear it. Like, okay, but we, like, we're all standing in different locations, and we hear it like it's right next to us. And so we're all puzzled. We're all trying to figure out where this noise is coming from. I'm like, you don't have any speakers out here? Like, you're just messing with us, right? Because they used to be tricksters.

They used to mess with us all the time. And my cousin's like, no. Like, we don't, I mean, no, we don't have any of that. And so he's like, should we just still pop fireworks? Do you think it's a good idea? And I'm like, you're a little adult here. I don't know. I don't know what's going on.

I'm confused just as much as everybody else in here. So we're standing there again. We go walk to the front. We look around. Still nothing. He even messages the neighbor. And the neighbor's like, I don't hear anything. I don't know what you're talking about.

He's like, okay, it's just in our property then. Cool. We're not, we're going crazy. We're hearing things. Instead of saying things, we're hearing things because we see nothing. So we're standing there. We're like, okay, well, I guess we could just pop. a little bit of fireworks and see what happens. So we popped the first fireworks, nothing.

They're still chanting. They get louder. It feels like they're getting closer. And we're like, okay, this is really weird. We're freaked out. Something was going on that we weren't sure. I was like, okay, there's going to be a war happening maybe, right? Like they hate us that much. They don't want us to be there. So we go ahead and pop like two more fireworks still. still, it still sounds crazy outside. It sounds like unbelievable. And then finally, finally, my cousin's like, you know what, I'm going to pop one of the big ones. Maybe, maybe it'll scare them off, right? So we pop it and they're still chanting. It's still going on. It's crazy. And we're like, like, we just come out already. What's going on? And then my cousin goes, okay, this is it. I'm going to pop the big one.

if you don't stop, I'm going to go out there and just pop it into the woods. And then it just goes, it cuts off. Like if we turned off the radio, it just goes, and then it's gone. We don't hear it anymore. And so we're all, you know, we're all checking our ears. Like, hey, do you hear anything? And it's just quiet now. Like, we can hear crickets now.

Like if, like, if nothing ever happened, it was ridiculous. It was the weirdest thing. I don't know if it was like a time loop or something had. like entered because I mean I've heard something like that happen before that maybe the dimensions crossed and it happened to appear in front of us or we could hear it or something. But that was literally the craziest thing that we've ever heard. It was it was freaky because we couldn't see anything. It was dark outside. Not a dang thing.

Just I'm telling you, cows, horses, nothing, trees, but you could, I mean, there's, there's nothing there's nothing there. Yeah, I mean, that, that definitely would be a freaky thing to go through, right? I mean, to, but I have heard that before. I have heard people talking about, uh, being in the woods or being around, uh, a Native American burial ground and hearing like these chance and not knowing where they're coming from. Uh, time slip. residual energy? I don't know, but it's definitely something, it's freaky, uh, because I imagine it be scary because, I mean, what I picture is, uh, like, say Native Americans, you know,

doing their chanting and stuff, like almost like a war cry, you know, it's, sounds like you can't get killed. That's exactly what we thought it. We're like, okay, we're about to fight with these people. I don't know who they are, but I mean, it's going to, we have, we have fireworks. We have fire. So bring it on. And nothing, nothing happened. Like nobody appeared. It was, it was dark out, but we could just hear them getting louder. We, we literally thought we were going to see like a parade just storm into us or something. Nothing, nothing appeared. It was just, I mean, you could ask, it's funny because if you asked my cousin about this, he'll deny it completely because he got so freaked out, he started crying. He called his dad. I'm like, you are acting.

like the biggest baby ever. Are you kidding me? And me and my sister were like, let's go look for it. Okay, we're ready. Like me and her were pumped. We're like, we're going to figure this out right now. And my cousin was like, no, no, no. It could bring like bad luck to us or something could happen and or you don't even know what it could be. And I don't want to die. I'm like, you're not going to, are you crazy? We're not going to pick a fight with these people. We just want to know what's going on. We're trying to understand what this noises and why it's happening. And for it to just cut off, like, like it, like nothing, it was the strangest thing. You could, I mean, you could ask all like my cousins that were there, they were all,

they would all tell you the same thing. Like, yeah, it was the weirdest noise. It was the weirdest crazy, just singing, drums, everything. Like, you could hear them. It was loud and clear, like speakers in your house, booming music, it was loud, loud, and that we couldn't see anything. I mean, we drove the truck around the, some of the property in the front, nothing. We couldn't see anything there. Wow. So maybe it was like, I guess, Native American property or burial or something or I don't know what, but it was. And for the 4th of July, I mean, yeah, I could only imagine.

Absolutely. Well, I mean, that's all you're left to do, right? You can only imagine. I mean, there's not really much to go with other than imagining what it was all about. You know, and I'm sure there's people that are listening that have, you know, pretty good ideas as to what it's all about. Either they had experiences like that or they've done extensive research into, you know, these types of things. but for you and I, we're just imagining. Yeah.

So these are pretty interesting experiences you had. And I would say thank you very much for sharing them. I enjoyed sitting here listening to you tell your stories. Well, I appreciate your time.
