1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,220 You have been led to believe that everything you have experienced isn't real, that there's 2 00:00:10,220 --> 00:00:11,220 an explanation. 3 00:00:11,220 --> 00:00:14,220 But what if they're wrong? 4 00:00:14,220 --> 00:00:18,920 What if something reached out to you from beyond? 5 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,560 Let me tell your true stories. 6 00:00:21,560 --> 00:00:30,920 Let me tell them until they all believe. 7 00:00:30,920 --> 00:00:31,920 Hi everyone. 8 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:34,560 I hope everyone had a great holiday. 9 00:00:34,560 --> 00:00:37,000 So today we have two stories. 10 00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:43,920 One sent in by Leon from California and I have titled his story Danger in the Cards. 11 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:51,280 The story after his is sent in from Jane from Ohio and I have titled it Terror in the Night. 12 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:57,000 Leon's story fascinates me and I am so thankful to Leon for sending it. 13 00:00:57,000 --> 00:01:04,480 Leon's experience shows us that we should always question intent, especially when dealing 14 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,760 with unknown entities. 15 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,800 This story also comes with a warning because it has violence and suicide. 16 00:01:11,800 --> 00:01:17,040 If this subject matter will be too disturbing for you, please skip this episode. 17 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:22,300 We do not focus on the violence or the suicide, but it is part of the story and necessary 18 00:01:22,300 --> 00:01:23,300 to include. 19 00:01:23,300 --> 00:01:29,360 Okay, well here we go with Danger in the Cards. 20 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:32,620 February 1984. 21 00:01:32,620 --> 00:01:37,120 My friend Jim and I were fresh out of high school, still living with our parents in the 22 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:39,940 small town of Mojave, California. 23 00:01:39,940 --> 00:01:44,320 We wanted to leave this little town and move to Fresno, California. 24 00:01:44,320 --> 00:01:49,680 Jim's sister lived there so we figured we'd hang out at her place while we went job hunting. 25 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,180 I'm sure you've heard of terror cards and how people use them for divination. 26 00:01:54,180 --> 00:01:59,580 We didn't have terror cards, but we had a deck of regular playing cards and a book that 27 00:01:59,580 --> 00:02:03,700 had these esoteric definitions for each card. 28 00:02:03,700 --> 00:02:06,160 We both had a card that represented us. 29 00:02:06,160 --> 00:02:10,120 For instance, my card was the Jack of Diamonds. 30 00:02:10,120 --> 00:02:14,000 Jim's was the Jack of Clubs, if I recall correctly. 31 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,500 We would at times play around with the cards to try and foretell future events, but the 32 00:02:19,500 --> 00:02:22,860 answers were always vague at best. 33 00:02:22,860 --> 00:02:27,360 We wanted to know if we would find jobs in the place we wanted to move. 34 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,800 So we sat across from each other. 35 00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:36,840 Jim shuffled the cards and asked out loud, will we find jobs in Fresno? 36 00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:42,400 Then he randomly selected four cards face down in the form of a plus sign. 37 00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,560 Then he flipped them over one at a time. 38 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:51,340 The first card was the King of Spades, which represented a dark haired male. 39 00:02:51,340 --> 00:02:57,160 The second card was the Queen of Hearts, which represented a light haired female. 40 00:02:57,160 --> 00:03:02,660 The third card was the Nine of Spades, which represented big trouble. 41 00:03:02,660 --> 00:03:06,780 The fourth card was the Jack of Diamonds, which represented me. 42 00:03:06,780 --> 00:03:09,120 Of course, that made no sense. 43 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:15,120 So Jim gathered up the cards, shuffled them again, and asked if we would find jobs in 44 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:16,120 Fresno. 45 00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:22,720 Again, he randomly selected four cards and laid them out as before. 46 00:03:22,720 --> 00:03:24,940 Then he flipped them over. 47 00:03:24,940 --> 00:03:27,640 It was the same four cards. 48 00:03:27,640 --> 00:03:29,640 By then we were both irritated. 49 00:03:29,640 --> 00:03:37,380 Jim, again, gathered up the cards, shuffled them, and asked if we were going to find jobs 50 00:03:37,380 --> 00:03:39,320 in Fresno. 51 00:03:39,320 --> 00:03:44,320 He randomly selected four cards and laid them out as before. 52 00:03:44,320 --> 00:03:46,680 He flipped them over. 53 00:03:46,680 --> 00:03:50,400 It was the same four cards. 54 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:58,100 King of Spades, Queen of Hearts, Nine of Spades, and the Jack of Diamonds. 55 00:03:58,100 --> 00:03:59,960 Then we got pretty weirded out. 56 00:03:59,960 --> 00:04:04,780 It was obvious that something was trying to tell us something. 57 00:04:04,780 --> 00:04:10,440 Problem was, we didn't know who represented the King of Spades and the Queen of Hearts. 58 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:15,080 We figured it must be a couple we know, but who? 59 00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:20,960 So Jim gathered the cards up, shuffled them, and we asked the cards yes or no questions. 60 00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,080 A black card was a no, and a red card would be a yes. 61 00:04:25,080 --> 00:04:29,440 We didn't know very many couples who fit the description, so we went through them one by 62 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:30,720 one. 63 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:34,080 We asked, is it Chuck and Chrissy? 64 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:35,840 Jim pulled a black card. 65 00:04:35,840 --> 00:04:36,840 No. 66 00:04:36,840 --> 00:04:41,360 So, then we asked, is it Jim and Tandy? 67 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,320 Jim drew a black card. 68 00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:44,560 No. 69 00:04:44,560 --> 00:04:47,620 Then I asked, is it Tim and Tammy? 70 00:04:47,620 --> 00:04:51,980 Jim drew a red card, meaning yes. 71 00:04:51,980 --> 00:04:54,920 We asked, what's the problem? 72 00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:56,440 Jim drew a card. 73 00:04:56,440 --> 00:04:57,440 Nine of Spades. 74 00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:59,560 Big trouble. 75 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:05,960 Then he drew my card, the Jack of Diamonds, and the last card represented travel. 76 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:11,520 Then I asked, am I supposed to go to Lone Pine because of this big trouble with Tim and 77 00:05:11,520 --> 00:05:12,920 Tammy? 78 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:16,480 Jim drew a red card, which meant yes. 79 00:05:16,480 --> 00:05:18,360 I knew they were having problems. 80 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:20,480 They had a history of problems. 81 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:23,640 I grew up with both of them since we were children. 82 00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:28,280 Tim was my best friend at one time, and we competed for Tammy's affections as we got 83 00:05:28,280 --> 00:05:29,520 older. 84 00:05:29,520 --> 00:05:35,720 Tim won of course as he was tall, dark, better looking than me, so they became a couple. 85 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:39,440 I was okay with that, and I stayed friends with both of them. 86 00:05:39,440 --> 00:05:43,880 But Tim, Tim had a dark side. 87 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:49,840 After a while, he began cheating on Tammy and physically abusing her. 88 00:05:49,840 --> 00:05:52,760 Problem for me was, she blamed me for it. 89 00:05:52,760 --> 00:05:57,560 At one point, she told me she wanted me to stay away because she said, he only does this 90 00:05:57,560 --> 00:05:59,160 when you're around. 91 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:06,080 So, I stayed away, and I don't think he only did it when I was around. 92 00:06:06,080 --> 00:06:10,800 So when this strange message from the cards came up, I was like, no way I'm going to 93 00:06:10,800 --> 00:06:14,440 Lone Pine to be stuck in the middle of one of their fights. 94 00:06:14,440 --> 00:06:16,920 So we put the cards away. 95 00:06:16,920 --> 00:06:19,540 We did go to Fresno for a couple of weeks. 96 00:06:19,540 --> 00:06:25,640 We did not find any jobs, but we didn't really look too hard for one anyway. 97 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,520 We wound up back in Mojave of course. 98 00:06:29,520 --> 00:06:33,360 It is now June 12th, 1984. 99 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,240 I was chilling in my bedroom when my mom came in and told me a sheriff had come over and 100 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:43,400 informed her that we got an emergency phone call and gave her a number to call back. 101 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:48,680 Well, we didn't have a phone, so we went up to town to pay phone. 102 00:06:48,680 --> 00:06:50,600 Mom got out and made the call. 103 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:53,280 She came back to the car crying. 104 00:06:53,280 --> 00:06:56,760 She said, Tim, he shot himself. 105 00:06:56,760 --> 00:07:01,120 My head snapped back as if somebody punched me in the face. 106 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:05,480 I thought maybe he's just hurt and in the hospital. 107 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:10,480 Then mom said, his dad asked, could you be a pallbearer? 108 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:16,000 Within the next day, I did indeed go to Lone Pine. 109 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:20,960 Tim was half Indian, so he was to be buried on Indian burial grounds just south of Big 110 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:22,720 Pine, California. 111 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:28,360 His dad, his uncle and I dug Tim's grave and put him in it. 112 00:07:28,360 --> 00:07:32,520 It was about a year later when Tammy told me what had happened. 113 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:39,160 She said she had finally had enough of Tim's abuse and cheating, so she dumped him. 114 00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:43,840 Then she told me it was as if a big weight had been lifted off of her. 115 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:47,000 The next day, Tammy graduated from high school. 116 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:51,360 Afterwards, there was a party that Tammy attended in the desert town. 117 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:57,320 Well, Tim showed up in his car and begged her to go for a ride with him and just talk. 118 00:07:57,320 --> 00:07:59,600 Well, she went for it. 119 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:01,340 She got in the car. 120 00:08:01,340 --> 00:08:06,240 He drove them out to a secluded place, parked the car. 121 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:10,020 Then he pulled out a gun. 122 00:08:10,020 --> 00:08:15,360 He loaded two bullets, saying one for you and one for me. 123 00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:19,320 And then he proceeded to beat her to a pulp. 124 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:23,960 She told me all I could think about was how can I get out of this? 125 00:08:23,960 --> 00:08:25,440 And then she got an idea. 126 00:08:25,440 --> 00:08:29,320 She told him, let's just get back together. 127 00:08:29,320 --> 00:08:30,320 Take me home. 128 00:08:30,320 --> 00:08:33,440 I'll get cleaned up and we'll go out tonight and talk. 129 00:08:33,440 --> 00:08:36,440 Luckily, he went for that. 130 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,240 He dropped her off at her house and left. 131 00:08:39,240 --> 00:08:44,920 When she walked in the house, her mom took one look at her and called the cops. 132 00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:51,520 He drove by her house after a while to pick her up, saw all of the cop cars out front. 133 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:56,240 So he drove out to where he had taken her to assault her. 134 00:08:56,240 --> 00:09:04,560 His heart was likely pounding from adrenaline when he shot himself in the head. 135 00:09:04,560 --> 00:09:13,820 Wow, such a tragic ending and how sad for his family and those affected by this story. 136 00:09:13,820 --> 00:09:16,840 This is an incredible experience, Leon. 137 00:09:16,840 --> 00:09:19,760 Thanks so much for sharing it with us. 138 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:26,340 My question to Leon and all of the listeners is what do you think the intent was of whatever 139 00:09:26,340 --> 00:09:29,560 was sending this message through the cards? 140 00:09:29,560 --> 00:09:32,000 Was it trying to help? 141 00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:38,120 Or was it intentionally trying to put Leon in harm's way? 142 00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:39,400 Hmm. 143 00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:44,000 We will never know the answer, but I'm positive Leon made the best choice by staying away 144 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:45,960 that day. 145 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:51,280 Another question here is what do you think is the power behind tarot cards? 146 00:09:51,280 --> 00:09:53,060 And even Ouija boards. 147 00:09:53,060 --> 00:09:56,620 After all, they are just manufactured paper products. 148 00:09:56,620 --> 00:10:01,800 I'm sure they aren't infusing these with magic at the factory. 149 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:05,860 I personally feel like we are the power. 150 00:10:05,860 --> 00:10:10,920 That our belief alone powers them to become portals for contact. 151 00:10:10,920 --> 00:10:17,000 But it's a dangerous game to play with forces we know little about. 152 00:10:17,000 --> 00:10:21,360 We don't even know what powers we hold within ourselves. 153 00:10:21,360 --> 00:10:26,920 Well, feel free to leave comments or questions about this story. 154 00:10:26,920 --> 00:10:31,340 Okay, so next we have Jane's story from Ohio. 155 00:10:31,340 --> 00:10:37,060 She is using all fake names for this story to protect the identity of her family. 156 00:10:37,060 --> 00:10:45,040 This story is truly terrifying, and in my opinion, her dream seals the deal for this 157 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,000 being some type of possession. 158 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:53,880 But in my eyes, it's definitely a paranormal experience I will not soon forget. 159 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:56,560 Okay, let's get into... 160 00:10:56,560 --> 00:10:59,920 Terror in the Night. 161 00:10:59,920 --> 00:11:03,400 Hello, my name is Jane. 162 00:11:03,400 --> 00:11:08,040 The year was 1983 and I was 15 years old. 163 00:11:08,040 --> 00:11:11,260 I lived with my grandpap and my step-grandmother. 164 00:11:11,260 --> 00:11:17,560 It was a Friday night and I was supposed to have a friend over, but she canceled at the 165 00:11:17,560 --> 00:11:18,820 last minute. 166 00:11:18,820 --> 00:11:22,000 And I was very disappointed. 167 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:28,420 I mean, back then, if you didn't already have plans set, then you were kind of on your own. 168 00:11:28,420 --> 00:11:34,000 No cell phones or internet to track your friends or see where the party was. 169 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:40,620 Also, I wasn't driving yet, so I was having a teen tantrum at having to be home on a Friday 170 00:11:40,620 --> 00:11:42,280 night. 171 00:11:42,280 --> 00:11:47,760 I decided to go to bed early and brood in my room, maybe read a book. 172 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:54,320 As I lay there reading, I heard my pap come home from work as usual around 830. 173 00:11:54,320 --> 00:11:58,960 I heard him shuffling around the kitchen getting his dinner. 174 00:11:58,960 --> 00:12:01,960 Heard him using the bathroom shortly after that. 175 00:12:01,960 --> 00:12:07,960 I heard his bedroom door shut and I knew he was off the bed. 176 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:13,560 I went to sleep shortly after that, so I'm guessing it was likely around 10pm. 177 00:12:13,560 --> 00:12:18,200 My step-grandmother was on the couch in the living room, as was her custom to sleep and 178 00:12:18,200 --> 00:12:21,680 find the TV at night on the weekends. 179 00:12:21,680 --> 00:12:24,160 All was normal. 180 00:12:24,160 --> 00:12:25,160 I was dreaming. 181 00:12:25,160 --> 00:12:33,040 And I can tell you, I remember this dream vividly, even today, as if I had just had 182 00:12:33,040 --> 00:12:39,440 it last night, likely because of the trauma that came after the nightmare. 183 00:12:39,440 --> 00:12:43,640 Anyway, as I said, I was dreaming. 184 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:50,400 It was a terrible dream, definitely way over the scale to the nightmare side. 185 00:12:50,400 --> 00:12:58,800 In my dream, I was standing in front of my grand-pap and I could see through his skin 186 00:12:58,800 --> 00:13:07,400 and what I saw under his flesh was hideous, demon-like, and it was grinning at me. 187 00:13:07,400 --> 00:13:13,760 My grand-pap seemed unaware that it was there at the moment. 188 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:20,960 Even black hands and large black snakes were surrounding him, grabbing at him and growling 189 00:13:20,960 --> 00:13:26,920 fiercely and he was screaming. 190 00:13:26,920 --> 00:13:32,920 The face underneath was still grinning at me. 191 00:13:32,920 --> 00:13:38,720 At that moment, I was so terrified that I woke up with a start and sat up in bed. 192 00:13:38,720 --> 00:13:44,280 The next thing I know, I see the light across my room turn on. 193 00:13:44,280 --> 00:13:50,040 Mind you, my room was the entire length of the house, one giant bedroom on the entire 194 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:51,880 top floor. 195 00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:57,560 So this light was about 60 feet away and it could be turned on using a switch at the bottom 196 00:13:57,560 --> 00:13:59,480 of the stairs. 197 00:13:59,480 --> 00:14:05,960 And it just turned on, so someone was coming up the stairs. 198 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:13,680 Still shaken by my nightmare, I was frozen in place, dreading what was coming up the 199 00:14:13,680 --> 00:14:16,880 steps, my heart pounding. 200 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:18,680 Was I still dreaming? 201 00:14:18,680 --> 00:14:24,240 Then, I saw her blonde hair and I knew it was Gail, my step-grandmother. 202 00:14:24,240 --> 00:14:27,800 What the hell was she doing? 203 00:14:27,800 --> 00:14:31,920 And what the hell was she carrying? 204 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:36,440 I glanced at the clock and it was shortly after 3am. 205 00:14:36,440 --> 00:14:39,120 I jumped from bed and went towards her. 206 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:44,840 She was carrying all of my grandfather's guns and a baseball bat. 207 00:14:44,840 --> 00:14:48,080 Yeah, I think I'm still dreaming, right? 208 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:51,280 I mean, this was weird. 209 00:14:51,280 --> 00:14:54,720 She hurriedly met me halfway across the room. 210 00:14:54,720 --> 00:14:57,960 Her face was panic stricken. 211 00:14:57,960 --> 00:15:04,080 I had never seen her look like this and then she whispered loudly, there's something wrong 212 00:15:04,080 --> 00:15:07,560 with Tony, who was my grandpa. 213 00:15:07,560 --> 00:15:12,840 You have to hide these, then come downstairs and help me with him. 214 00:15:12,840 --> 00:15:18,920 In an uninformed state of panic and still shaken by my dream, I hid the weapons but 215 00:15:18,920 --> 00:15:25,480 kept the bat and headed downstairs on shaky legs. 216 00:15:25,480 --> 00:15:30,040 I found Gail waiting for me at the entrance to the hallway. 217 00:15:30,040 --> 00:15:34,640 Around the corner, I could hear moans and strange sounds. 218 00:15:34,640 --> 00:15:40,600 I asked her what's going on and she said she has no idea. 219 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:46,800 She said that his shrieks and moans had awakened her from the couch and she went to check on 220 00:15:46,800 --> 00:15:49,440 him and found him like this. 221 00:15:49,440 --> 00:15:55,000 I went to the doorway of the bedroom and he was sitting in the middle of his bed. 222 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,560 His face had contorted. 223 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:03,240 He was kicking and punching at things we could not see. 224 00:16:03,240 --> 00:16:09,440 Occasionally, he would act as if something was hitting him back and hurting him. 225 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:12,640 I was just standing there in shock. 226 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:16,720 I said to him, Tony, what are you doing? 227 00:16:16,720 --> 00:16:19,680 Wake up, wake up, you're having a bad dream. 228 00:16:19,680 --> 00:16:27,520 I reached for him and he screamed when I touched him, making me jump and retreat. 229 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:34,720 I looked at Gail and I said, I swear to you, this is similar to a dream I just had. 230 00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:40,600 And she brushed that off as if it didn't matter, but I think it did matter and to this 231 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:44,280 day I think it mattered a lot. 232 00:16:44,280 --> 00:16:50,960 Anyway, we tried a couple more times to wake him or get him to look at us, but he acted 233 00:16:50,960 --> 00:16:57,040 as if we were not there, except when we would touch him and he would scream as if it caused 234 00:16:57,040 --> 00:16:58,660 him pain. 235 00:16:58,660 --> 00:17:02,520 So I know some of you may be wondering why we did not call 911. 236 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:08,620 Well, at that time in our area, 911 was something new. 237 00:17:08,620 --> 00:17:13,320 Our family had never used it and it was not a first thought back then. 238 00:17:13,320 --> 00:17:16,840 Nowadays it certainly would be. 239 00:17:16,840 --> 00:17:23,360 We decided to call my sister, Tina, and headed down the long hallway to the kitchen. 240 00:17:23,360 --> 00:17:30,440 Halfway there, we heard a noise behind us and turned to see Tony standing in the hallway. 241 00:17:30,440 --> 00:17:38,880 And when I say standing, I mean, he was standing, but he was twitching and it was as if he was 242 00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:47,400 learning to stand upright as he kept rolling his shoulders and twisting his neck. 243 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:52,320 It just wasn't normal and it was frightening to see. 244 00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:55,360 I said to him, are you okay now? 245 00:17:55,360 --> 00:18:00,220 And he started walking clumsily towards us. 246 00:18:00,220 --> 00:18:06,360 We were both now terrified of him, so we backed ourselves into the living room and he walked 247 00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:14,520 past us into the kitchen and then he just stood there in his underwear staring towards 248 00:18:14,520 --> 00:18:15,800 the window. 249 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,600 It was so strange. 250 00:18:18,600 --> 00:18:20,520 Everything was dreamlike. 251 00:18:20,520 --> 00:18:26,480 I still questioned if I were stuck in the dream that I had had earlier. 252 00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,400 I went down the hallway and grabbed the baton. 253 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,520 He was still standing there. 254 00:18:31,520 --> 00:18:36,680 We huddled in the living room, peeking at him occasionally trying to decide what to 255 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:41,840 do when he suddenly ran down the hall toward the bedroom. 256 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:48,720 We followed slowly to find him on the floor at the end of the hall. 257 00:18:48,720 --> 00:18:54,000 We went to him again to see if we could help him and I know how this sounds. 258 00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,040 I swear it happened just this way. 259 00:18:57,040 --> 00:19:01,180 He leaped from the floor into a standing position. 260 00:19:01,180 --> 00:19:06,920 Not something I would imagine anyone but a well trained athlete could do and he was not 261 00:19:06,920 --> 00:19:08,240 that. 262 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:15,000 He leaped from the floor and took a stance against us and screamed, I'll slit your throats 263 00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:18,360 and shit down your necks. 264 00:19:18,360 --> 00:19:23,680 I had left the bat in the living room and all the adrenaline was pouring through my 265 00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:27,560 body now, ready to run or fight. 266 00:19:27,560 --> 00:19:32,480 And he screamed into our faces and we ran. 267 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:36,680 We ran to the door and went outside. 268 00:19:36,680 --> 00:19:40,440 We started peering through windows to see where he was. 269 00:19:40,440 --> 00:19:48,560 We found him standing at the end of the hall where we left him, just staring towards us, 270 00:19:48,560 --> 00:19:52,040 just standing silently. 271 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:56,600 I said I would go back in and grab the phone to call for help. 272 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:01,240 And Gail said she was coming too, that maybe he's okay now. 273 00:20:01,240 --> 00:20:06,760 She said she wondered if he was sleepwalking and I looked at her like she was crazy. 274 00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:08,040 Sleepwalking. 275 00:20:08,040 --> 00:20:13,240 He just threatened to slit our throats and shit down our necks. 276 00:20:13,240 --> 00:20:15,440 And did you see him on the bed? 277 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,680 And did you see him leap from a laying position? 278 00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,080 He's not sleeping. 279 00:20:20,080 --> 00:20:23,920 There is something wrong with him. 280 00:20:23,920 --> 00:20:30,000 So we went back inside and when we looked down the hall, he was gone. 281 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:36,400 Oh my god, now what and where was he? 282 00:20:36,400 --> 00:20:40,480 There he was, back in the bedroom, sitting on the bed. 283 00:20:40,480 --> 00:20:43,200 When he heard us, he smiled. 284 00:20:43,200 --> 00:20:50,140 It was a genuine smile, different than a few minutes ago when he had a blank face. 285 00:20:50,140 --> 00:20:55,560 He smiled and said, oh mother, I have missed you. 286 00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:01,000 Keep in mind here, his mother had been dead for about 10 years at this point. 287 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:06,320 And then he proceeded to have a conversation with his dead mother while looking directly 288 00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:07,960 at Gail. 289 00:21:07,960 --> 00:21:10,640 It was so surreal. 290 00:21:10,640 --> 00:21:13,720 Gail said, should I answer him? 291 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:15,880 And I said hell no. 292 00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:17,320 Don't talk to him at all. 293 00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:18,320 Let's leave. 294 00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:20,200 We need to leave. 295 00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:25,000 We can go to Tina's house, as my sister lived about two miles away. 296 00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:30,180 She can call for help and we'll be safe away from him. 297 00:21:30,180 --> 00:21:37,320 We started backing down the hallway, slowly, eyes on him the whole time. 298 00:21:37,320 --> 00:21:44,560 As we retreated, he rose from the bed and began to follow us, matching our pace. 299 00:21:44,560 --> 00:21:51,040 I just knew we were in danger, but I also thought if we ran, he would run and catch 300 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:52,040 us. 301 00:21:52,040 --> 00:21:54,320 So we stayed the pace. 302 00:21:54,320 --> 00:22:00,000 The hallway, being about 30 feet long, seemed like a mile at this time. 303 00:22:00,000 --> 00:22:06,400 Finally, we reached the end and the doorway was about 10 feet to our left. 304 00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:11,840 We broke and ran towards it. 305 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:19,400 An alpha dwarf, and he was again screaming at us, wanting to slit our throats, wanting 306 00:22:19,400 --> 00:22:24,600 to shit down our throats, wanting to beat us till we died. 307 00:22:24,600 --> 00:22:28,000 Screaming obscenities and worse. 308 00:22:28,000 --> 00:22:33,960 Things I have never heard before and things I have not heard since, nor will I repeat 309 00:22:33,960 --> 00:22:37,720 them now. 310 00:22:37,720 --> 00:22:44,440 Then when he got to the doorway, he stopped. 311 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:48,720 We were hiding behind the car, watching him through the car windows. 312 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:55,800 He stood at the door, looking at the doorframe from top to bottom, as if he had never seen 313 00:22:55,800 --> 00:22:56,800 it before. 314 00:22:56,800 --> 00:22:59,760 Like he didn't know what it was. 315 00:22:59,760 --> 00:23:01,180 It was weird. 316 00:23:01,180 --> 00:23:07,600 He was moving almost chicken-like in his actions at the doorway. 317 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:11,280 Very weird. 318 00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:16,080 Then he walked back into the hallway and we didn't know where he was now. 319 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:22,240 And we just realized that to be able to get help, we would have to go back inside, to 320 00:23:22,240 --> 00:23:26,560 either get the phone or get the keys to the car. 321 00:23:26,560 --> 00:23:29,720 And we were terrified to do either. 322 00:23:29,720 --> 00:23:31,640 We lived in the country. 323 00:23:31,640 --> 00:23:34,920 There were no neighbors to help us. 324 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:40,280 So we started looking through windows again, to try to see his whereabouts. 325 00:23:40,280 --> 00:23:45,240 After some time, we saw the sun was about to rise, as we could see our surroundings 326 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:46,240 now. 327 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,740 And for that, we were grateful. 328 00:23:48,740 --> 00:23:54,420 We seen him finally, coming back down the hallway, towards the kitchen. 329 00:23:54,420 --> 00:24:01,760 He stood at the edge of the table, lit a cigarette, and reached down and was motioning as if he 330 00:24:01,760 --> 00:24:03,960 were petting a dog. 331 00:24:03,960 --> 00:24:11,680 Our dog had just died not long before this, and we currently had no dogs. 332 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,640 He was talking to the invisible dog. 333 00:24:14,640 --> 00:24:16,760 We could hear him through the screened window. 334 00:24:16,760 --> 00:24:19,720 You are such a good boy. 335 00:24:19,720 --> 00:24:22,560 It's good to see you again, boy. 336 00:24:22,560 --> 00:24:25,920 Gales went down my spine. 337 00:24:25,920 --> 00:24:33,000 Later that day, replaying the events in my mind, I realized that he had said, see you 338 00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,560 again. 339 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:42,880 It seemed some part of him knew that the dog had passed, as he said, see you again. 340 00:24:42,880 --> 00:24:50,640 Eventually, he went back down the hall, and I snuck in to grab the keys and phone, while 341 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:55,080 Gale watched through the opposite window to be able to warn me. 342 00:24:55,080 --> 00:25:00,720 Luckily, he never saw me, and I escaped safely back outside. 343 00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:05,000 We finally found 911, and they came to get him. 344 00:25:05,000 --> 00:25:07,280 He thrashed and screamed. 345 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:10,420 He screamed horrible things. 346 00:25:10,420 --> 00:25:15,260 He was straitjacketed, and then they took him away. 347 00:25:15,260 --> 00:25:17,560 At the hospital, it was kind of a blur. 348 00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:20,940 We were sleep deprived and traumatized. 349 00:25:20,940 --> 00:25:25,720 They sedated him and planned a lot of testing for him later that day. 350 00:25:25,720 --> 00:25:28,600 So we went home and went back later. 351 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:35,520 When we arrived, he was already awake, and he was completely back to normal. 352 00:25:35,520 --> 00:25:39,080 Perfectly normal. 353 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:45,620 After blood work, scans, and I know they did some kind of testing for toxins that could 354 00:25:45,620 --> 00:25:51,800 possibly make him act that way, plus whatever other testing they did, I mean, he got the 355 00:25:51,800 --> 00:25:53,960 full gambit. 356 00:25:53,960 --> 00:26:02,600 After about a week in the hospital, they found nothing wrong with him physically or mentally. 357 00:26:02,600 --> 00:26:05,320 He was very healthy, they said. 358 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:12,320 His condition went undiagnosed, but the doctors recommended he get some rest as he seemed 359 00:26:12,320 --> 00:26:15,280 to be exhausted from the whole war deal. 360 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:21,120 I want to add that nothing else like this ever happened again. 361 00:26:21,120 --> 00:26:28,920 I will never forget the dream that I was having about snakes with black hands grabbing him, 362 00:26:28,920 --> 00:26:37,200 growling, while he was screaming and fighting something in real life in his bedroom at the 363 00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:40,520 very moment as my dream. 364 00:26:40,520 --> 00:26:45,240 Nobody in my family ever acknowledged my dream. 365 00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:54,320 And my grandfather never remembered any part of that night, but I never forgot a moment. 366 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:58,120 Wow, just wow. 367 00:26:58,120 --> 00:27:04,280 This was very intense, and I can't imagine having witnessed these events. 368 00:27:04,280 --> 00:27:06,840 What do you think this was? 369 00:27:06,840 --> 00:27:14,100 I feel like it was possession of some type, and I find it crazy and odd that this thing 370 00:27:14,100 --> 00:27:20,760 couldn't figure out either how to get out of the house or wasn't able to leave the house. 371 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,960 Any thoughts on that guys? 372 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:28,720 Also, where did it go once her grandfather was taken? 373 00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:32,200 Please, leave comments or questions or your thoughts on this. 374 00:27:32,200
