The Confessionals - 361: Creature Between The Veil

Episode Date: August 3, 2021

In Episode 361: Creatures Between the Veil, Daniel has many experiences to share with us, including the paranormal, doppelgangers, UFOs, bigfoot, orbs, and more! I initially interviewed Daniel for one episode, but following our first talk, he contacted me again because more activity had started kicking up in his life. Daniel then came back on the show to record an Overtime episode, giving us updates and sharing a childhood memory of a creature he saw lurking in the woods in an abandoned house. When Daniel returned home with his friend, they realized that whatever they had seen had followed them.SPONSORSGET SIMPLISAFE TODAY: https://simplisafe.com/confessionalsGET Hello Fresh: https://hellofresh.com/confessionals14 Promo Code: "confessionals14" for 14 FREE MEALS!!!GET ACORN.TV: https://acorn.tv/ Promo Code: "tony" (Code must be applied in all lowercase letters!)Get Emergency Food Supplies: http://www.preparewiththeconfessionals.comGet Beard Oil: https://bit.ly/2FbOhN5CONNECT WITH USWebsite: www.theconfessionalspodcast.comEmail: [e-mail] Community: Text "YUP" to 844-215-0819Subscribe to the Newsletter: https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/the-newsletter SOCIAL MEDIASubscribe to our YouTube: https://bit.ly/2TlREaIDiscord: https://discord.gg/KDn4D2uw7h Show Instagram: theconfessionalspodcastTony's Instagram: merkificationFacebook: www.facebook.com/TheConfessionalsPodcast Twitter: @TConfessionals Tony's Twitter: @tony_merkelSHOW INTRO Show Intro INSTRUMENTAL: www.youtube.com/watch?v=kyub39AXxUw Show Intro FREE DOWNLOAD: https://bit.ly/2HxNcw3

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 up 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. He got about 15 yards away. I 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, I try. air couldn't breathe and I couldn't move because I know I'm seeing a monster. Yeah.

Okay, so we got Daniel coming on the show today, and he has many, many different experiences. We are going to be doing an overtime with Daniel today because we recorded the initial

interview with Daniel where we talk about paranormal stuff, doppelgangers, UFOs. And then after we got done doing the recording, Daniel contacted me later and said that since we talked, things have been kicking up in his life and he had a lot more things to share. And he also talked about this thing that he saw as a kid growing up that he didn't share on this episode where he and his friends saw like a rake alien-looking type creature in this house in the middle of woods and it followed them home. And you're going to hear all that stuff today if you're a member because members will get access to the overtime episode starting right now. If you look in your Castos members app, you'll see that there's an overtime episode

as you listen to this right now waiting for your listening pleasure. So once you're done with this, just hit play on the overtime show and you'll be able to listen to the whole other conversation we had after we initially recorded this interview and all the things have been happening since this interview you're about to hear. So let's get to Daniel right after the trailer for this overtime episode. Let's go. I was hanging out at a buddy's house and he had a huge huge acreage. He had just tons of land. And on his land, he had an old house. that was built in the woods. And this was a big house.

I mean, we used to go in there and hang out and just explore. And then one day we were going out and we were out riding on mini bikes. And we started going up to the house. While the corner of my eye, I see something or someone. looking out one of the one of the windows windows and i'm like what what the you know what the heck is that so i zip up to him real quick i'm like hey you got someone in that house and he's like ah there's no one in that house so we started we started uh going back there and we both just got this really weird feeling like you know let's let's just go back to the house so we go back to the house so we go back to the

and his mom and dad were planning on going somewhere for the night. So it was just him and I know. We're both 16, 17 years old. And he goes, hey, I'm going to go out and get something to eat or drink. Do you want something? I'm like, yeah, sure. So I was like in the family room. We were watching something on TV.

And I hear this like scratch or something at the window. And I look over. And I see like this white face. And it wasn't like it was pressed right up into the window. It was kind of back a little bit. But it was enough for me to see that it was like a white face. So there is no doubt in my mind that it followed us. All right.

Today we got Daniel on the show. Daniel, how you doing, man? You're good, Tony. What's up, brother? I'm doing good, man. So Daniel, you have a lot of experiences in life, man. foot, ghosts, orbs. We could touch on so many different things. So I know you want to start off when you're a kid, though. So just take me into your childhood, your experiences and stuff,

and kind of lay some stuff out for us because I know you could go on for days with your experiences. There's lots of them. Yeah. You know, and I won't make them long stories. You know, I'll take them as brief into the point as possible. But, you know, I'll start when I was younger. I live in West Virginia with my mom and my aunt and uncle, five cousins. and my little brother, my great-grandmother in a house, and in our house we had a pretty big backyard, and it was surrounded by woods. And this is an old country road in West Virginia,

you know, so your neighbors are pretty much spread out there and out right on top of each other. And, you know, I'd always look out the window sometimes, and sometimes I'd see, like, lights out in the woods. And I always thought it was, like, my cousin, my older cousins. You know, had three cousins that were in high school. stuff out there always messed around in the woods and I always ask me, can I go out and hang out with you guys in the woods and play?

Like, nah, no, no, you know, you're not hanging out this. And what do you mean in the woods? We're not doing anything in the woods. I remember one night, you know, our bedroom was at the top of the stairs, and the top of the stairs went all the way up, and then my bedroom was like right to the right-hand side, the first door on the right, and then there's like two banisters. And if you turn to the left, there was my other cousin's room,

and then further down was another cousin's room and then my aunt and uncle's room and then my mom's room was right down from my room and I shared the room by little brother and my two youngest cousins well when I'm laying in bed and I see like this light like underneath the door

and I'm thinking it's one of my cousins with a flashlight because they're sneaking out you know and so I just kind of closed my eyes and rolled over well got real bright in my room and I rolled over and I see this basketball size like this ball of light.

And it wasn't like coming towards me. It was just right inside my door in my room. No one else woke up in the room. And it was like right by the window and this window overlooked the woods. And I sat there and watching for probably, I don't know, seemed like maybe five minutes. And then it just faded out.

Like it had a dim switch on it. And it just disappeared. And I was kind of scared, but I wasn't scared. I was more like, what, you know, what is that? You know,

I didn't feel any terror or anything like that. So I went and told my grandma, my great grandma about it, and, you know, she just, you know, you're seeing things,

you know, whatever and really nothing. And then one day, you know, my cousins, hey, you know, hey,

you want to come on and hang out in the woods with us. I'm like, yeah, sure, you know, this is awesome. So we go punching

around the woods and we're probably, I don't know, out there, hour and a half, maybe two hours. And we come across, we find this old abandoned building, you know. And I'm like, you know, we're like, what is this? You know, and I think it might be an old church or a old farmhouse or something.

But we found like an old cemetery. And there's maybe a dozen, two dozen graves. And they were still overgrown. And you couldn't really make out names or dates. But my cousin's like, you know what, let's clean this up. You know, I mean, this is, you know, this is home, you know, to show them some respect. So we clean up.

You know, we pulled weeds, and we took a weed whacker, and we trimmed around the graves and stuff, and then one of my cousins, after we were done, we said a, you know, we said a prayer, and, you know, say, if we missed somebody, we're sorry. And, you know, we went back to the house, and I went and told my grandma, my great grandma, I was like, hey, you know, we found an old cemetery

up way up there in the woods, and we cleaned it all up, and my grandma goes, oh, that's nice, they're going to like that. and then that night, the next night is when I looked out the window game and I saw some orbs out in the wood

and they weren't moving around like I'd seen them before but they were kind of stopped like where I could see them and they just moved on and I never saw them again never saw the orbs again Do you think that the orbs were what your grandmother was referencing?

Spirits. Yeah, I think they were. I think they were, honestly. And, you know, again, I never felt any malice or anything from them. It was just, you know, I think it was their way saying thank you. And, you know, that was that. It's interesting that your grandmother said that. And, you know, if you think that she knew about the spirits and you seeing the orbs,

you know, a lot of people think orbs are spirits, it makes you wonder what you your grandmother knew? I think my grandmother knew a lot. She was, she was a quite an extraordinary lady, you know, my great grandma, she was, she was one of my favorite people, you know, when I was growing up. And I remember, um, a few times, now, this isn't the only house that we lived all together. There's another house in West Virginia that we lived maybe, maybe, I know, 15, 20 miles away. Again, we lived all in this house and again, surrounded by woods and stuff. And we score, kick up in the woods and, you know, hunt squirrel and rabbit and raccoon and, you know, whatever. We, you know, we go out and get snapping turtles and stuff and make turtle soup out of them.

And when we'd be out and about, especially when I was like with me and my younger cousins, we'd always hear like this whoo, you know, or just whoop, you know. And at first we were like, you know, what's going on? So, you know, we were running home, running back to the house, we told my great grandma, hey, you know, we heard the noise up in the woods. You know, we had a couple whoops up in the, oh, don't worry about that. It's just in their hillbill. That's what you call them.

But, you know, now, you know, as I got older and then I listened to a lot of stuff on YouTube and stuff and seeing, finding Bigfoot and all the type of stuff, what I heard very well could have been a Bigfoot, making a, you know, a whoop, you know. But then you're living in West Virginia. so very well could have been some hillbillies up there, put in a hollering and saying, hey, we got some kids. We got some kids messing around up here,

so we're trying to scare them off. So you never know. But, you know, from there, you know, that was some of the experiences that I had when I was living in West Virginia. And then when I was in the second grade, I moved to Florida with my mom. And we lived, she was a truck driver.

Her of my stepdad were both long haulers. And they worked four. They drove refrigeration trucks, sides of meat, produce, stuff like that. And they were based out of Colorado. Well, the owners of that company wanted to open up a satellite office in Lakeland, Florida. So we moved out to Florida. And just so happens a house that we moved to was right next to an orchard, oranges and grapefruit. And I remember, you know, you'd probably been there maybe, I don't know, maybe two or three months.

and I really started getting adventurous and wandering around this big property that we had and I found a pond I was like to go out there once in a while and see if I can catch frogs or whatever and try to fish and then I forgot a thing one day I went out and I was going to try to fish

and I saw this little girl by the side of the pond and she started laughing and I go hey hey how we're going and growing up my middle name's Anthony so growing up I was called Tony. And I go, hi, my name's Tony. We know, we just moved over here

what's your name? And she started laughing, giggling, and she took out running. And she ran off into the orchard. And I'm like, well, that was kind of mean. So I go back and tell my mom, I say, yeah, I saw a little girl down by the pond. And, you know, I said hi, and she kind of giggled, and she ran off into the orchard. And she's like, oh, she's probably,

you know, probably belongs with people, own that orchard, or whatever, you know. And it's okay if she plays with the pond or whatever. like, okay, no a problem. So a few days later, this guy, this truck pulls up, and he is the owner of this orchard. And he's like, hey, you don't want to welcome the guy to the area. You know, I've driven by a few times and saw you guys moving in.

And, you know, I just want to say, hey, you know, welcome. And there's anything you need to let me know. And by the way, if you want to, go ahead and feel free to, you know, pick some oranges and some great fruits. You know, no problem. And I go, well, can your daughter come and play? come over and play. And he kind of looked at me. And I go, yeah, I start.

She was playing over by the pond. And I said, hi, my name's Tony, and she ran off into the orchard. And he was okay if she comes over and plays, or if I can come over and play with her. And he's like, I don't think that's going to be possible. I go, oh, you know, nothing. I did think nothing of it, you know. Well, my mom got curious and asked

and come to find out his, granddaughter had drowned in that pond. And I saw his granddaughter standing by the pond. Wow. Yeah. So when you said that to him, and he obviously connected dots, uh, yeah.

Did he look surprised, uh, confused? Because I mean, I don't know. I mean, maybe it was something that's happened before. Well, remember it's just his face kind of went blank, but then he kind of carried the conversation. on to something else. You know, kind of changes the subject real quick. And I remember listening to one of your episodes, I think it was just the most recent

when you posted that you're scared of snakes, right? Terrified. Okay, but let me tell you about this. Now, this is a true. This isn't anything spiritual and like this. Now, women in Florida, I started second grade. I asked my stepdad, where did I catch the bus? And he's like, oh, we've got this little gate shack down there.

you go down and there and that's where the bus picks up. I'm like, okay, so one day I go running down there. And I run into like a spider web that's like strung out of fishing string, fishing line, right? And I look up and here's this spider. Tony, I kid you not. This spider was probably the size of a tennis ball and it was eating a gardener snake. Yeah. The spider was the size of a tennis ball and it was eating a gardener snake.

Some kind of snake. easily, oh yeah, oh yeah, had all of its web, and it was just sitting on there and saying, just, lame. Oh, yeah, disgusting. Yeah. I mean, I hate spiders, too. I don't know. I don't know, man.

That would be pretty freaky to watch for sure. Have you ever seen the one where the praying menace eats, kills and eats the lizard? I've seen that one, and I've seen him eat the murder horn, the Asian wasp. Yeah. I've seen that one. That's pretty awesome. Dude. It's amazing. Nature's cool.

Nature's cool, but terrifying. Oh, yeah. And what's in nature, all the energies in nature, it's even more of the stuff, but we can't see. So that was like second grade, you know, I moved back to my dad in Washington, States, in Tacoma, Washington. And I was living with my other mom's mom. Oh, no, we were living across the street from her, I'm sorry. and I would always go over in the morning and so on the weekend is probably, I don't know,

maybe 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock in the morning. I go over there and I eat breakfast with them and I'm sitting at the dining table and I'm looking at this big bay window they have and I'm looking across the street and there's this lady's house, her name was I'll say Marcy and Marcy's mom used to live with her mom had passed away

and, you know, it was a sad time you know, it was probably about two or three months after her mom had passed away. so I'm going to eat my cereal and I kind of look up and I look back down as I'm looking down I see movement in her mom's

window and I'm like well that's weird because she's not home you know she lives from place else you know after her mom passed away and I'm thinking who's in the house and so I look back up

and I see her mom looking at me from her window and she waved to me and closes the window and curtains again. And all I could do is stand up, take my bowl of cereal, not finish it, set it in the sink,

and go out the back door. Yeah, that was, that was one of, that one, that one, that one, that one,

more than any of them, you know, that I had. Yeah, at that moment you knew it was time to leave. Yep, it was time to go. And then,

And my uncle Walt had this chair that he always sat in. No one sat in the chair. I mean, you could, but it was just, you know, it's his chair. He didn't fit in it. And we had a dog, a little box that named Britt. And he had passed away. He had jumped up on that chair and went to sleep and never woke up. So, you know, it just kind of hit everybody kind of hard.

You know, he's like 17 years old and old guy. and one day I go coming from the back door go down the hallway and I come and I sit on the couch in the living room and I'm kind of put through the TV my aunt's downstairs doing laundry

and I have a corner of my eye the chair starts rocking and I'm like what is going on and it started rocking it looked like someone or something had jumped up on it so like Fritz jumped up on it and started rocking it back and forth when he jumped up on it.

So that was another unexplained thing in that house. And then speaking about a ghost dog, I want to go back to Florida. I lived in Newport Ritchie with my mom, and I lived across the street from my mom's parents and my great grandma. And it was right before school started the third grade, and their house caught in fire. smoked you, building out of my great-grandmother and my grandmother they come out of the front door

and we're like, where, you know, I call my grandfather, you know, daddy Bob. I'm like, where's Daddy Bob at? You know,

and I'm running, losing my mind. I'm trying to figure out where he's at. And he comes walking out at the screen porch and the fire department show up and they put the fire out and stuff.

And, uh, they're like, um, you know, where's your dog at? What do you mean? We don't have a dog. He's like,

sir, you have a dog, and you probably, you know, you're upset or whatever. He's like, no, I don't have a dog. He goes, can you come and explain this to us, please? So it was me, my mom, my grandfather, and the two firefighters. We walk into the house. We go into my grandparents' bedroom, and on the bed is a perfect silhouette of my grandfather where he'd been taking a nap, okay? And right next to him was a perfect silhouette of a German,

shepherd, like sitting or like lane right next to my grandfather. Wow. Yeah, that was, that was crazy. That was really crazy. So, I mean, is there any kind of explanation that could have been natural for that? I mean, I don't know. I mean, because what you're saying is the outline is like, outlined, like a burned outline. Yeah, it's like all the soot, whatever, had settled down on, on the sheets.

And it was an outline of a German Shepherd. and my grandfather had German Shepherds his whole life. I remember, again, this German Shepherd's name was Fritz, and he loved that dog to death. That dog just was so doyle to my grandfather. It wasn't funny. When he passed away of old age, my father, Fritz is buried in the woods somewhere on Fort Lewis in Washington State in Tacoma.

He's buried up in those woods somewhere. I couldn't tell you where he's at. But they were staying at this at the time when he passed away. And my dad, my grandfather went up in the woods and buried him in the wood. So I guess my grandfather had the ghost of his dog with him. Wow, that's cool. Yeah, I mean, stuff like that. It's kind of cool.

Let's see. What are some other ones I had? Now, on episode 484 on West's the show, you want me to go over that encounter with Bigfoot or? No, if you said it on West's show, we don't need to put it on this one. Okay, yeah. Let's see. So, let's see, that's, I'm trying to go chronological as best I can.

That was in Washington State. Well, when I lived in Tennessee, again, I moved back with my mom. There was this, I just got my, I just got my first car. and I was gone all the time. My other old brother, you know, my absolute best friend of the world, he passed away a couple years ago. And so we do everything together. And in Tennessee where I lived, I live in Shelby County,

there's a Shelby Forest. And it's a lot of stuff right against the Mississippi River. And it's a pretty big four. And, you know, we've gone down there. My little brother, by all means, physically was not little. He was every inch of 6-2, 6-3, about 300-pound. It was just a big, big country-colin-fed boy and not afraid of anything. And we decided we're going to go out in the woods.

We're going to go on a day hike. You know, we did bring a tent stuff in case he got late. We wanted to camp out. So we had little bit of provisions with this. And so we go out and we start walking out and we're going to go to the river, maybe do some fishing, and all of a sudden he just stopped. I'm not feeling too good. I'm like, you're not feeling too.

He's like, no, I don't feel right. I go, okay, we're going back to the car down. We're pretty deep in the woods. We'll probably got a good hour, hour and a half into the woods. We're away from our car, you know. And so we start walking back, and I stopped to go to the bathroom. As I'm going to the bathroom, I catch movement out of the side of my, and I'll add my peripheral vision off to my, off to my right.

And my brother comes walking onto me, and he's like, we're not alone. And I just saw a fucking move over to the right. He's like, yeah, there's something moving over to the left, too. I'm like, okay. But we kind of pick up our step. You know, we start moving a little faster, we move a little faster. And we stop, and we hear, like, shuffling the footprints,

It's foot, you know, so much stepping coming up behind us or alongside us because the leaves are falling and we can hear them. They're like, dude, we need to go. So we almost start running. We're moving pretty quick. And I can see the road ahead of us. And the whole time we hear them still whatever they were moving on the left and the right-hand side of us. So once we get to the road, it's probably 250 yards to where we have our. car part, and we both went

at a dead sprint. And the whole time we heard something coming through the woods behind us and then paralleling us on either side of the road. And we run and we jump in our car, in my car, and we take off

and we haul it. But, completely out of there. And I'd never been back to Shelby four since, either of my little brother. Now, I'm not telling you, you know, oh, you know, do you think it's something out there's messing with you? No, because we're the only person in the parking lot when we pulled up. Being, you know, living in West Virginia and Washington State, you know, doing hunting and stuff like that,

you can tell when the deer's walking through, you can tell one of the squirrels messing around in the leaves, you can tell these were bipedal, these were something was walking as we were walking. and what I caught was I didn't get a good glimpse of it but it was definitely big it was definitely there's no telling what would have happened if something like that got our hands on

if we'd probably kill us you know down south you call them boogers like big foot fast blocks whatever and down south they have a little more ill-tempered than the ones in the Pacific Northwest yeah so you said it was white? No, it was wide. Oh, wide. And it was dark. It was black. It was, it was big. It was big. And then, you know, I never, you know, me and my brother, we never said anything about this. You know, we never told anybody. And then I went and talked to a buddy mind probably about six or seven months ago, he's out hunting all the time out in Tennessee. And like, when you ever see anything weird in the woods? He's like, no. I said, me, you've heard anything weird in the wood? He's like, no. I said, me, you've heard anything. weird about going on in Shelby Forest.

Yeah, someone said they heard and saw Bigfoot up there. I'm like, shut up for real. He's like, yeah, I go, yeah, that's crazy. So, yeah, you can look it up. There's in Shelby Forest and Shelby, Tennessee, Shelby County, Tennessee. They believe their fat is there filled. Is that what it was? Yeah, it doesn't surprise me at all.

I mean, that area is notorious for that kind of stuff. Yeah, you know, and it's funny thing is, you know, I live there, my freshman year high school. This was my senior year high school. Now, if I go back to my junior year, I live in a place called Lacey, Washington, which is south of Tacoma, down by Tumwater and Olympia, Washington, right? And I live on this lake called Long Lake. I think every state has a Long Lake, but this one is called Long Lake.

And we lived in some really nice townhomes down on the lake, and we had boat dock. It was like one or two in the morning. and I was down there with a girlfriend of mine at the time and we were just hanging out to go back in you know, doing what boyfriends, girlfriend's girlfriend, do, talking, that's what we're doing, we were talking. And like I heard that, this was October time frame,

so it was cold, so it was like sweatshirt, weather, jeans, you know, type of stuff. And, you know, we could have blanket down there just kind of lay on the deck on the dock and just kind of hang out. And I, for some reason, I felt and heard like this humming noise. And I'm like, what is that noise?

And she's like, you know, I don't, I don't hear nothing. I go, I hear something. And I go, it's coming from over here. It's coming from behind us and to the left. And I look and I see like a searchlight, you know, like looking like a helicopter surflight, you know. But you didn't hear any engine. noise.

You know, from the helipop, you didn't hear the blades hit, you know, you didn't hear it wasn't a helicopter. So we grabbed the blanket and we took off running and we ran into, it ran into the back door or back sliding glass door of our town hall, shut it, locked it, ran through, ran up into my bedroom. I lived, where I, my bedroom was, it was a loft. And so you could look out over the dining room in the kitchen, I mean, the living room. But it also had some windows that were almost eye-leveled.

you could look right out into, right out onto the lake, right out onto the dock. And when we got up to my room and locked my door and I looked out my window through these other windows, I could see like the searchlight going back and forth, and it kind of like hovered over right around where we were at, and then the light went off and it was like gone. Now, I didn't see what it was, but you were probably. military, I can think back, it was not a fixed wing aircraft, was not a jet of any kind, it was not a helicopter of any kind.

And this is before going, what was it? I don't know. But, you know, I'm telling you, with a searchlight, I mean, it was lightened everything on. So you probably, I mean, it's UFO, unidentified flying objects, right? But, I mean, do you think that this could have been just advanced technology that we have? or did you get any kind of, you know, gut feeling of, you know, ugh, there's something creepy about this? Oh, that's why we got up and took off running.

Like something's not right. I heard like a humming noise and you felt it. It's kind of like like an electromagnetic field. You know, like your hair starts standing up. That's when I started feeling. And then I heard, I heard this humming noise. So that's, you know, I don't know what that is. We need to get to the house.

So we took up running to the house. Yeah. I mean, I would too. It's the idea of the unknown that's the scariest part about that stuff. I mean, you have no idea. I honestly think I'd probably feel more comfortable if it was just, you know, military exercises with the new craft that they're working on. And, you know, 100% feel safer than the other alternative of an interdimensional entity or, you know, extra whatever, you know? Yeah. So that experience, was that like the first time that, you know, being outside up close to something like that? Nope.

It wasn't. No, no, no, no. Or something like that. Yeah, that's the only time I've ever had a UFO encounter. But being up close to something that you can't explain, yeah, I've had a few of those. What do you know about doppelgangers? I mean, I know what they are. I don't, I wouldn't say I, I know as much as the normal person would, I guess.

Yeah, do you, do you, have seen one? No, no, I haven't. No, I have. I have. Of you? Oh, yeah. No, not of me of my roommate. Okay. As long as you didn't say me.

No, no. I was stationed in, uh, shy in Wyoming, uh, if you were on Air Force Base. Um, and, uh, this is just what I'm going to start touching on in my military career, because this is why I've seen pretty, pretty, pretty much. some of the most crazy things. So if you want to enforce base, I'm living in a dorm, and I have a roommate, and he's gone for the weekend. He's gone.

He lived in Colorado, so he lived about two hours away from base, so he would go home when he had his days off. And just so happens that our day off coincided with each other. So I'm sitting in the dorm room. You know, it's probably, I don't know, 2 o'clock in the morning, and just got to watch some TV, you know, just got off of work from a swing shift. And so, you know, I'd probably been home maybe two or three hours.

And I'm watching a movie and it was a lot of bang on the door. So I'd get up and open the door, there's no one there. I'm like, okay, I didn't hear anybody run up or down the hallway. All right, so I closed the door and I'd go sit back down. Start watching my movie again. Same thing happens. Boom, boom, boom. So I look out to people, there's no one there.

Open up the door, there's no one there. What is going on? Who's messing with me? So I shut the door and I took about four steps back from the door and I saw feet standing by my door. And I opened up the door quickly and there was no one there. I'm like, what is going on? So I shut the door again and now I'm like just waiting.

I hear the first like part of the knock on the door and I ripped the door open and there's my roommate standing. there. And he's laughing at me and he takes off running down the hallway and he cuts to the right. Now, where he cut to the right, there's a day room there, okay, and there's just a TV, a couch, a potter plant, and a chair. Okay. And then there's a set of double doors. There are heavy doors and you'd hear someone open these doors. Well, I didn't hear any, I didn't hear those doors open up. So I'm like, oh, he's playing, he's playing jokes. He's going to get it now. So I go in the day room. And I look. behind the TV, the couch, everywhere.

He's nowhere to be seen. Nowhere to be seen. So I'm like, what? Oh, wait, he's going to get it. He's going to get it. So I go back in my room. I call him. Wait, thinking, you know, he's not going to be dressed.

So I call. And he answers his mom's phone. He's like, hey, what's going on? He goes, who's this? I go, this is your roommate. You know, he's like, what's going on? And everything okay? I go, no, what are you doing, mess around with me?

I'm like, wait a minute, why am I talking to you? And I told him what happened. He's like, dude, that's crazy. He goes, man, you've been drinking? I go, no, I haven't been drinking at all. He's got off of a spaceship. And he's like, all right, man. Well, yeah, yeah, if you see him where he goes, you know, let me know.

And he hung up the phone. Here he is two hours away from me. And I just saw him 15, 20 seconds ago, you know. And that, that's pretty, that's one of the craziest thing. All right, let's take a second and talk about our sponsor for this. week's show, which is simply safe. And it's crazy how things kind of line up in the universe. You know, I knew this ad was coming up here for a couple of weeks, and I was planning on talking to you about what some crazy things were happening in my house and how I'm getting these extra

cameras in my house and all this crap. And then literally, I'm recording this on a Monday. Last night, crazy stuff happened when my dad was here. I had just told him what was happening. And then I get a text from my wife saying, the door's open again. And I know I locked it. And so we go upstairs and we're investigating and I talked about it in the intro. Go ahead and check that out on the YouTube channel. But the thing is, I'm going to be mounting a simply safe camera right there on my door. Like, it literally only has one purpose in my house, this camera I'm getting. It is going to be mounted.

Nowhere else is not going to be added to any other part of the house. It is just for that door. And I'm going to be filming it 24-7. And when that freaking thing opens up again, I'm going to get it on. camera on a beautiful video footage for everybody that listens to me to hear and know that I'm not playing games. There's crazy stuff happening here. I have a real security issue in my house. I don't know if there's somebody coming in my house. I live in a not so great neighborhood. And maybe there is somebody messing with my house. Maybe the men in black are messing with my

house because of the MK Ultra show I just recently did. I don't know. Maybe it is a ghost. Maybe it's a demon. Maybe it's the aliens that my wife's talking about. I don't freaking know. all I know is I'm going to be mounting the SimpliSafe camera right at the door so it always films it and I'm going to catch that freaking thing opening once and for all so you guys will be able to check that out whenever I get it.

Do you think you are targeted of a doppelganger or do you think you're? think that it was targeting his doppled gang, his doppelganger

was targeting himself and you just kind of caught caught in the crossfire. I mean, what makes you, I mean, how do you explain that situation? I have no clue. I'll tell you, he didn't sleep for the rest of the day. I think I pulled like a 48-hour wide awake.

I did not go back to sleep. Yeah. I can understand that. So I'm going to go back to like 91, 92-93 time frame when I was stationed in Germany. I was stationed on a German Air Force base called the Munition Support Squadron. And we had, I'm just going to put air quotes up. We had American resources in air quotation on this base.

And I had to have a top secret clearance to work around these quote-unquote resources. and so we would work with host nation. They provided most of the security. I was in the Air Force, and I was security police officer. Now they're known as security forces. And so what we would do is we'd be like on two-man mobile patrol. You know, we drive around these areas. And our host nations, whatever reason, they would walk.

They would walk certain areas. So it would be nothing to drive around and see, you know, you know, these two-man teams just walking around, right? Well, I'm pulling a mid-shift one day, and it was me and my team leader. And as we're kind of driving, you know, we're normally just speed through the area. But for some reason, this night is really, really foggy. And so we were driving kind of slow and see it, but I'm not believing what I'm seeing, is I see this hand waving to us out of the bushes.

And I'm like, well, what is going on? So I slow down, or when he slows down, and I roll my window down, I take my flashlight out. Well, flashlight's not going to do any good because the fog is so thick. And out comes our two host nation counterparts. They come running out, and they jump in the back of our, we had a call it a German combo, like a van, Volkswagen van, or, you know, a little bus. And they jump in, and they're freaking out. They are absolutely, they want. no, they want nothing to do with what's going on right now.

We don't know what they're talking about. Well, they're speaking in broken English, and my team leader spoke pretty good German, and all I could understand was phantom. Like they saw a phantom or they heard a phantom, and we're like, you know, what's going on? So I was being the brave Americans, you know, we lock and load. You know, I take my M-16, I jacked around in it. I don't know.

Do we have an unauthorized individual in this area? So we get our little issued flashlights, little lower lights, and we're kind of flashed, you know, we're looking and looking and we don't see nothing. But we start walking to where we saw them, and we took about five or ten steps into the wood line, and I just looked down and we said, we need to get out of here, man. This is not feel right. Something does not feel good at all. And he looked at me and he's like, dude, we got to go. So we started backing out. and we watch you know

we watch each other's back as we got back in the vehicle and these two Germans are freaking out they're locked and loaded they got the guns pointed out of the back of this combi like they're ready to lay down some fire

in case something comes out of the fog on us and we get in the vehicle and we take off and we're going as fast as that vehicle go out of that area what there was we don't know

but I'm just telling you I had this feeling inside deep in my body tell it be, you need to go. You need to get back in your vehicle and you need to get the hell out of the area because something's about to happen. And to see two other grown men absolutely terrified, what they said is they heard that it was time for someone, it was time for them to be played with or they were going to be played or something, that something was going to have fun with them. Like they heard it whispered to him. They're like, you know,

it just freaked them out. Yeah. So that's why they called it a phantom. Yeah, that's what they were saying. The phantom, I wish I knew how they would, how they pronounced it. But I would hear aircraft fly over, prop planes fly over, one, two o'clock in the morning. If you look up, there's nothing there. Now, this area was heavily bombed during World War II.

So hearing prop planes fly over, hearing World War II planes fly over, that was a norm. that I'd hear that probably once, maybe twice a month you just got used to it. You'd still look up to see you know, what's flying overhead, but you'd never see anything. I lived in a dormitory on base

that they called the morgue. I guess this is where they store bodies after bombing rates in the basement of this dormitory that I stayed in. So the dormitory was haunted. One of the guys

who lived up on the second floor was actually attacked by a phantom. And I wouldn't have believed it unless I didn't see it for myself. He had marks

on his face, marks on his chest. And he had three grown men trying to break in the door and we couldn't break the door in. And yeah, we heard him yelling and, you know, get the half-off. I mean, we thought he was

He wasn't drunk. He looked like he had his ass handed to him. You know, what, what, what was it? No clue. No clue at all. Another time, the same guy, there was, they had a four dorm rooms up in this area. We called the, because after work, people go up there and we part it. We drink, it's stupid, you know, just talk a lot of trash, let all the testosterone flow freely, you know?

and they had this this beer sign on the wall green and flickering off and on and the guy that got the guy that got attacked he pointed he pointed at the sign he goes demons be gone and it lit up really super bright

and then it shut off and we all just looked each of like okay party's all it's time to go and I went on when I looked at the light I'm like man that you know what's going on did something burn out real quick, because I'm looking at all this, you know, it's like a neon sign.

I'm looking, I don't see nothing, and then I look down, and the sign was not even plugged in. Well, that will make me be gone. I'm telling you, it's just weird stuff.

Another one of the guys lived in that area, woke up screaming one night, and he come flying out of his dorm room, and we're like, what's going on? He goes, there was a head hovering above me.

Like, he saw a disembowed head, or disembodied head, just floated. above him. Yeah. There's been a, we called, like I called it, the cloaked figure. I've seen that a couple times coming in and out of people's dorm rooms. One time a person's bed was tossed, like somebody had flipped the bed over and messed up. After I saw the cloak figure go into his dorm room, I'm like, dude, you go check your room right now.

I just saw this figure go in your room. He's like, yeah, whatever, man, you're full of crap. I'm like, dude, let's go check your room. And sure enough, he opens up his room, unlocks his door, opens up his dorm room, and his bed's like flipped upside down. Yep, that's Germany for you. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, there's been a lot of bad things that happen there, right? So who knows what kind of things are going on in the spiritual realm?

The energy there is just insane. I mean, you know something's about. there's on this base that I was on there's a little part. I worked at one part of the base, and then we lived on another base. So we worked on one. We had to be bused to where we worked, and then bused back to where we lived. And where we lived, there was a small patch of woods that they say it was haunted. And I've heard things.

I heard whispers, you know, singing, whistling, coming from these woods. And a lot of people would, and there's a path, like a, um, cobblestone path that someone put bricks down and made a really nice path through these woods. No one ever used it. I never saw anybody use it the two years I was there. I used it one time. That's when I heard the whispering and stuff like that. I was like, I'm not coming back in these woods.

Nope, it's not happening. Nope. Yeah, I can understand that. And then I left Germany and I went back to F1 Air Force Base. That's why I saw a doppelgator. also in the dormitory that I lived in in the basement

was our like rec room we had a pool table and a couple of video games and a big TV and chairs and couches and stuff and our laundry room was right next to that so I'm down to do laundry one day and I hear someone

break a rack of balls on the pool table I'm like okay I'll go see who's playing and I'll see if they know why if I play with them you know so I finish putting all my laundry in the washer and I set it and I walk out. I just walk out like five feet, go into the rec room.

Rec room lights are off and there's no pool balls. There's no nothing on the pool table. Nothing. The pool balls are set when they're always set when people aren't using them. There's no cues. All the cues are up on the wall where they're supposed to be. There's nobody there. nobody there

and from the time I heard them break that rack of balls to when I stepped in that door maybe a minute like hmm that's odd and then another time I was doing laundry down there I just got done getting my load of laundry out of the dryer

and I turn around I see a dog just like a little Jack Russell kind of like that dog I'm not saying it was a Jack Russell but a small dog like that and he's just standing there and he's looking at me

I'm like, well, how did you get in here? I'm talking to this dog. I'm like, what are you doing? Well, so he starts wagging his tail. You know, how dogs, they get kind of excited. They kind of, like, hunched down. You know, like, they lower the front part of their body, and they stick their butt up in the air,

and they wagging tail, and they're getting ready to play. Well, he did that. I'm like, oh, you want to play? So I put my laundry down, and I go to, like, chase him, and he takes off running, and he takes off running to the left. So I go out the door of the laundry room, they turn the left, and there's stairs. So I figured he went up the stairs

So I ran up the stairs Now at the first Flight of Stairs At the first landing Is a doorway to go outside There's these huge metal doors You know like you're going in and out Like a store or something like that right

And then you go up the second flight of stairs And that's the landing for the second floor The same kind of stairs Or the same kind of doors Dog's not going to open up doors So I ran up there and I don't see a dog Okay, didn't hear any doors open So I'm like

Oh he probably going to over where the storerooms were. So I go down and I see and peek his head around the corner. I'm like, oh, look at you. I think, come here, come here. So I'd get down on like my knees. I'm like, come here, buddy. Come on. Come on. And he's kind of poking his head out. Come walking out. He's wagging his tail. And then one of the doors open up, and he takes off running back

around the corner where he came from. So I get up and I walk over there, and there's nothing there. There's a wall. And a door to our storage room. that's always locked. He's nowhere to be found. I'm like, are you kidding me? So I go and I grab my laundry

and I walk upstairs and I see our door manager. And I go, man, I said, I just saw a dog downstairs. He's like, I go, what? I go, a dog. He's like, so we don't have a dog here. I go, I don't know, but yeah.

And he's a counselor, he mess with me. I'm like, No, I'm not. I'm telling you, I saw a dog. He's like, yeah, whatever, man. He'll just do what you need to do, so I want to get my laundry. About a month later, I go down, and I go down to the day room, and I'm getting a soda, and I come back, and I see the dog again.

I'm like, oh, look at you. I said, come on now. Where did you go? And he took off running like he wanted to place. So I chase him again, and I chased him again, and I chased him with him with him, and he's gone again. I'm like, this is crazy. I'm like, I'm not doing this now, man. So I go, go up, go out the doors to outside on the first landing,

walk across the street. We had a bowling alley over there. So I go to order something food. And I'm like, dude, are you okay? I'm like, heck no, man. I think it just saw a ghost dog. And he's like, what? And I go, I think it just saw a ghost dog here.

What kind of dog was? Like, oh, no, like a small dog, like a Benji, like a Jack Russell. So he's like, no way. I go, yeah, man, I just saw it. I saw it see it twice if I was, you know what? Because your squadron used to be in like the 89 squadron dormitory, and they used to have a dog as a mascot. And that dog was hit by a car, and they buried it out in the courtyard.

And I'm like, shut up. Yeah, so I probably saw the ghost of that dog. Now, let me ask you a question here. you've had a lot of these experiences in your life, and you've had time to think, you've had time to think about these things. Do you think that there is something about you that opens a door for you to have these experiences? Or do you think you're just that lucky guy that's been in the right place of the wrong, or, well, right place at the right time? Sensitive, maybe. Yeah.

Here's the thing. My stepdad passed away in 2003. Very, very close. I've seen my stepdad physically seen my stepdad twice since he's passed once I was it was the night before I was going in for my divorce my divorce hearing and I stepped down in the basement of my house and my room was completely dark I love having a very dark room so I sleep better and it's like someone turned the light on in my room and I looked up and there's my stepdad standing next to my bed now I'm going to do everything I can't not to get emotional because he was so real. I felt that I could get up and hug him. And when I did, man, why are you making me cry? He goes, uh, he goes to the son.

Everything's going to be okay. And he goes, I love you. And he was gone. The second time I saw him, the second time I saw him, I smelled him first. He always wore Stets and Cologne. And I was driving my car. I had a like a 1990-something, a priest classic station wagon, right?

And I remember I was driving home from a union meeting and a big smile on my face when I looked up real quick and he was sitting in the back seat of my car. I looked, I saw him in my rear view mirror. Just as I'm talking to you right now, that's how real it was. And he just smiled. and then I realized I just ran a stop sign and I got pulled over by the Minneapolis Police Department Oh, they don't exist anymore

And I'll tell you, it's a Bay route there all over again I'm telling it's crazy But I was bawling And the police officer, she goes, sir, you okay And I just kind of explain the whole situation She's like, okay, like, how about you just kind of sit here Just relax a little bit, catch her breath And then it'll be safe right home

I'm like, okay. You know, that's, I don't know. In my sensitive to it, I think I am. You know? The one thing I never told anybody on if you were an Air Force base, it used to be an army fort, an army base. And they have a graveyard on there. This is where some people were seen trying to vandalize headstones.

So they told us, hey, you know, keep a lookout for it or whatever. and I was pulling a, I was being a law enforcement that night. Normally I was security, which I would drive around an army vehicle, you know, or with another partner this time they needed someone to help out law enforcement duties. So I'm like, okay, you know, what do you want me to do? Well, you just be a relief officer. And, you know, just this is the area you need to patrol, look out for things. If you see anything, you know, go into these buildings, do these checks.

I'm like, okay, no problem. So I'm driving and it's November. I want to see right after Thanksgiving, if I'm not mistaken. There's a full moon or the moon was bright enough where you could see and it had snowed. And so I'm looking and I think I see somebody in the graveyard. And usually like 2 o'clock in the morning. 1.32 o'clock. I felt like, eh, okay, someone was there.

They need to get out. So, and I get out, as I'm walking, I see this lady standing by this grave. Then I'm like, ma'am, you can't, you can't be out here. I said, you know, this is out for them. It's, you know, the cemetery's closed. You can't be on here. And she's turned around and looks at me. And I'm, ma'am.

And it didn't dawn on me at the time, you know. But I remember vividly what she was wearing. She was wearing like a heavy shawl, you know, thing over. She's wearing a dress. You know, it was like she's wearing. I don't, maybe early 1900s close, you know. And I'm like, man, you can't be out here. And she just looked at me again.

And as I was bringing my flashlight up, it's like a big gust of wind came down. You know, like a big gust of wind that kicked up like soft snow. And like I felt like I had something in my eye. So the next thing I remember is I'm hearing a radio check. You know, police fives, police watch. radio check, police will and police by a radio check. I have to give a radio check.

Like once every hour, once every 30 minutes, right? And I was like, I was coming to the sound of the radio check. I go, oh, police fly, secure. And it had been like 15 minutes since I saw the ghost. I don't know if she hit me or I don't know what happened. Still standing.

In the cemetery, oh my gosh, it's early 30 in the morning. And I'm snapping out of whatever I'm in, the sound of my radio going off in my ear. So that's, I mean, that's interesting. What do you think happened there? I have no idea. But I know 15 minutes of my time, I can't account for it. Huh.

I can't account 15 minutes of my time. When you stop, you call in, you let them know where you're at. And then the next thing I know, I'm getting a radio check. Yep. That's probably the scariest thing. Yeah, I can imagine because, I mean, it literally affected you physically, you know? Mm-hmm. Now, I'm not saying this.

I saw her reach out and touch me or punch me or go through me. But whenever that wind kicked up, that's all I can say was was wind, and I felt like something hit me in the face. And when I snapped too when I came back to whatever, there were no footprints anywhere except for my footprints, leaning to where I was at. Again, Air Force Base is a haunted, haunted, haunted place. It really is.

There's a ghost of fam camp, family camp. If you have like an RV or whatever and you don't have any housing yet, you can camp down in there with your RV. There's reports of a little girl. I guess she was raped and killed by some soldiers that were there and you'll hear her scream. Now, I never heard that. you know, I mean, I've heard that, oh, we have reports to someone screaming, so we responded,

but I never heard the screams myself. The headquarters building of the security police squadron that I was in used to be the old hospital. In there, I've seen a what looked like to be a cavalry soldier sitting on one of the tables smoking a cigarette. As I was walking by one of the rooms, I just looked and there he was sitting on a table smoking a cigarette. like, what the hell is going on? The elevator that's in that building, when I was there, was completely sealed

shut. And the reason for it is, I guess, some major got on the elevator, and he hit, I think he was like on the third floor, and he hit one to go down to the main floor. And when the doors are closing, they opened back up and something pushed him and pinned him

to a wall, and he watched the button from the basement get pushed. And he rode all the way down to the basement. and then when hit the basement, the doors opened up, he was able to be, you know, come off of the wall

because whatever was was holding him against the wall. And then the elevator went up to one. It didn't even stop on one. It went from three, bypassed one,

down at the basement, and then up to one, and he got off, and he said, you need to sit in this elevator right now. I've seen canine units bite their handlers, trying to make them go up

into the attic of the building. Dogs won't go up there. Dogs will absolutely, refused to go up. I've heard growling come from upstairs up in the attic. I watched one of our military working dogs bite its hand there

because we were supposed to go up there and check and he went to go up there and try to pull him up there and dogs like it didn't happen. So it was up there and I'm not going up there. The LE desk was at that building before I got there. A female

police officer was working the desk and something kissed her neck, something whispered in her ear, and then pulled her hair from that day on, no more, no less than two people are posted at the L.E. desk. Yep. I'm telling you, F.U. Warrant Enforce Base is a haunted, haunted place. Wow. It sounds like it, man. It definitely sounds like it.

You know, with all these experiences you've had in your life, though, I imagine it's shaped your viewpoints and how you think about these things, or maybe it hasn't. Has it? No, I mean, I know here, I think when you see something, it may be someone who has unfinished business is asking you for help. Maybe. Or they just don't want to pass. They don't want to pass over. The orbs, I can't tell you what they are.

I think they're balls of energy. I think they're spirits. Sasquatch, I think, is one million percent. real. One million percent real. UFOs? Come on now. They're now openly talking about it. Militaries are showing footage that they have them. You know, rock-ass monster, I don't know if I believe about that yet. You know, it's still up in the air about that. Yeah, I mean, I think it's, I think it existed at one point, but I don't think it does anymore. No. At least in, you know, Ness. It might be somewhere else. I don't know,

at least in Ness, I don't think it's there. This whole dog man phenomenon. I don't think it's a dog man. I think he's a werewolf. Honestly, God, I believe my dad, my not. Here's a weird thing. I have nobody left in my family. My mom's passed.

My dad's passed. My stepdad's passed. My little brother's passed away. Okay. I have nobody in my family. But my dad lived in Alaska for the longest time. Pretty much grew up there. Okay.

And I remember him telling me one time, about he was out hunting. He was probably 17, 18 years old. He's out hunting right before he shipped off to Vietnam. And he was, and he lived in Catch a Canaan and where he was hunting, I don't know.

But he said he wasn't maybe 20 miles away from home or whatever. And he's up on his ridge and he sees these elk. And so he's like, okay, I'm going to, you know, I'm going to follow these elk a little bit. So he's just kind of scanning the ridge line. He's on the opposite

ridge line. And he's scanning and he stops. And he sees this huge, huge, like blackish gray wolf. And he's like, okay, you know, all right, that guy's around. I'm not going to play around. You know, no. That guy wants those elk

or, you know, he can have them. I'm not going to play around. And as he's watching his elk, he sees it take off running, it stops by, or he sees this wolf. He sees it running. He stops. It stands upon two legs. and then runs off after, like it was tracking the elk. It ran off on two legs.

And the only reason I know, you know, I know about that story is because of the big foot counter that I had when I was younger with my dad. My dad also believes in the Kushtika, which is like a shapeshifter or half-odder half-man. It's a native folklore up in Alaska. But he wholeheartedly believes in that. and, you know, I always would laugh about it, but my dad, he'd be very serious about it. He's like, you don't play with these things.

You know, they're real. You know, you know about them for a reason. He goes, they're not, they're not something to take light. You know? So, you know, I think listening to that my dad telling me things like that as well, you know, and he never dismissed anything I ever told him. He's like, oh, okay, all right,

he'd be very, he didn't want to listen. He'd listened during anything. He wouldn't just dismiss it. You know, and I think that's why I'm able to deal with it the way that I do. You know? My little brother passed away in 2016. He was 42 years old. And I have seen him in my house, but when I'm sitting in right now, I've seen him in my house three times.

And each time it's calm when he was there. my stepson and I know this is not my brother but my stepson he has encountered something twice in this house I came home from work and he's out shooting baskets on our basketball

and like hmm and I go he's gonna come in he's like yeah I'll be in in a minute I come in and my daughter she's in the only middle of the most conscious I don't know what's wrong with Joey he's been out there you know and he's been on

there's like three hours. And really? He's like, what's going on? I said, I don't know. Come to find out, he used to in his room, playing a video game, and he looks over, and he sees an arm

reach around the corner, and starts moving up and down the wall by his light switch. Now, in order for someone to do that, they'd have to be in our bedroom, my bedroom, one of my wife's, because our bedrooms are literally right next to Joey's.

So, yeah, that's, he saw that. And then another time, this is recently probably about a month and a half ago two months ago. He woke up in the middle of night and turned his lights on because he saw something standing in his doorway. And I go, was it tall? Because I had asked my little brother, I said, listen, man, I trust you even now more than anybody. I need you to protect my family.

I need you to be here and make sure everything goes, okay, I don't want anything coming here. It does need to be here. Protect my kids. Did you see? And was it called? He said, no, it's short. What he was short? It was shorter than your mom?

He's like, yeah. And it was wide. And what did you see? It was just black. And it was like a black match and just standing in the dorm. It was like two or three in the morning. And I don't know the history of the house. I've only been here for about six years now.

My wife's been here eight years. so I don't know if the former owner died in the house. I don't know. She doesn't know. But the experience that the whole family had a couple weeks ago, I had a Samsung 70-inch 4K ultra-K-a-altry, you know, HD TV. Oh, I see where this is going. I had one.

Now, the stand that we have it on, okay, there is more than enough room for this. TV. It's not on the edge of anything. It's not over, you know, there's plenty of room. We have plenty of room to put an Xbox 1 on there, a PS4 on there,

you know, our DirecTV genie thing to change the channel on there. You know, there's plenty of room. And we're sitting at the dining room table, and we're playing a game. And where I'm sitting, I can see the TV perfect. Now, what I'd done is I had moved

out the stand just a little bit, kind of maybe 35 degrees, you know, 45 degree angle. Still, plenty of room. It's not unstable. It's completely level. Then I'm sitting and watching the hockey games. I go and I roll the dice. I move. I look up to see what the score is of the hockey game.

And I watch my TV get pushed off of the stand. like somebody was behind it and literally pushed it right off the stand and we're all like what the bleep bleep bleep bleep bleep just happened yep that happened a couple weeks ago thing man if anybody hears this they want to look on the on the fan page it's on there pictures of what what my tv was is on there yeah i mean you're referencing the fan page for the facebook group um yep for your first Facebook group, yep. Yeah.

So I'll tell you, man, it sounds like you got an entire life of experiences and it looks like you got more to come the way it seems. So I don't know, man. Strap up for the ride. Yeah, well, you know what? I won't say that I welcome it, but I'm not surprised by it, really.

I'm really not. I don't know. I think, you know, again, like my dad talking with me listening to me in housebirth. Oh, I'm speaking to my little brother real quick. I wanted, this is another one of the things I think freak me out the most. One of the top things that freak me out the most. I was out of the military.

I moved back to Washington State. I lived there for a year. Then I stepped down diagnosed Parkinson's disease. So I moved, I put my job in Seattle and moved back down to Tennessee. And my little brother wanted me take him over. a friend's house. Like, yeah, sure, not a problem. So we take him over his friend's house.

And I'm like, what's going on? I go, oh, I got to pick up some stuff. I go, why are there a lot of cars? Oh, he's got some thing going on. Like, what are you going on? I don't know. Those guys in the, you know, some stuff. I'm like, well, what do you mean he's into some stuff?

Like, oh, well, okay. He goes, well, come on in. Like, all right, I'll come on. I don't really know these people, but I'll hang out by the door. So my brother goes in and his friend meets me. Hey, what's your brother doing here? He's like, oh, he gave me a ride. He's just hanging out.

He's just hanging out. We're going to leave as soon as we're done here. He's like, okay, cool. So I'm standing, you know, not exactly in the doorway. I'm probably about two steps, three steps inside the house, right? And so, you know, I hear some people laughing in the back, and I hear some weird music, and I'm like, you know, what's going on? And, you know, curiosity was trying to start to get the better of me,

and I found myself wanting to walk more into the house, but I didn't. About that time, I started feeling something drop on my head. And I'm like, what? And I go like this, and I'm looking up

and I don't see nothing. I don't feel nothing while I feel something drop on my head again. You know, a couple more drops. Like water's dropping on my head. So I reach up and I feel my head again and I go down and I got blood on my hand.

And I'm like, holy crap, am I bleeding? And about that time, somebody from the back room come and walking around the corner and my brother and his friend are right behind this person and this person goes, you need to go right now. You're not welcome here.

I go, boy, man, I got blood on my head from somewhere. And this person goes, you need to go. We were told you need to leave this house now. And my brother's like, let's get out of here, man. What? What's going on? He goes, man, they were doing some crazy things. back there. They had some drawings on the floor. They're wearing these cloaks and these hoods. And they,

I'm like, what? Yeah. Yeah, that freaked me out. Oh, so it was probably like a Boy Scout meeting or something like that, right? Probably. A dark Boy Scout meeting. Yeah. Yeah, I'd say so. See, my brother knew what, knew what they were into. He just never dabbled in that stuff. My brother was a really, really unique character.

You know, he took theology because he was bored. He took languages because he was bored. He was six different languages almost fluently because he was bored. Super high intelligence. Just his philosophy of life was live life to the fools with the least amount of stuff. You know, he was very simplistic in his living, but probably the smartest person I've ever met in my life. Well, man, I'm sorry you had to lose him. it hurts every day.

Yeah, I can understand that. It hurts every single day, man. Yeah. I can't imagine. I can't imagine. I mean, I hear you and your brother, you know, every once in a while. I listen to a podcast where your brother was on there. And, you know, I'm like, yeah, it sounds like you guys got a really good relationship going on.

And, you know, it's just, yeah, he's just a, he's a great guy, man. He's really was. And he's with me still. He still, you know, you say, you know, when a cardinal shows itself, it's a family member, you know, that you know that they're near. You know, I see Cardinals all the time.

I was hanging out at a buddy's house. And he had a huge, huge acreage. He had just tons of land. And on his land, he had an old house that was built in the woods. And this was a big house. I mean, we used to go in there and hang out and just explore. And then one day we were going out and we were out riding on mini bikes. And we started going up to the house. On the corner of my eye, I see something or someone looking out one of the windows. And I'm like, well, what the, you know, what the heck is that? So I zip up to him real quick.

I'm like, hey, you got someone in that house. And he's like, ah, there's no one in that house. So we started, we started going back there. And we both just got this really weird feeling like, you know, let's, let's just go back to the house. So we go back to the house. and his mom and dad were planning on going somewhere for the night. So it was just him and I know. We're both 16, 17 years old.

And he goes, hey, I'm going to go out and get something to eat or drink. Do you want something? I'm like, yeah, sure. So I was like in the family room. We were watching something on TV. And I hear this like scratch or something at the window. And I look over. and I see like this white face

and it wasn't like it was pressed right up into the to the window. It was kind of back a little bit but it was enough for me to see that it was like a white face. So there is no doubt in my mind that it followed us.
