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 --> 00:00:31,520 Let me tell them until they all believe. 7 00:00:31,520 --> 00:00:33,240 Hello again everybody. 8 00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:37,920 Welcome once again to Paranormal and Supernatural True Stories. 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,120 Thanks so much for the feedback on last week's show. 10 00:00:41,120 --> 00:00:46,280 It was definitely scary and I can't get the image of him standing at the doorway out of 11 00:00:46,280 --> 00:00:47,280 my head. 12 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:53,600 Okay, so this week we are taking a dive into a great story that leads me to wonder, are 13 00:00:53,600 --> 00:00:56,880 we all capable of attracting entities? 14 00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:02,360 And by entities, I mean all of them, ghosts, demons, and whatever else is out there watching 15 00:01:02,360 --> 00:01:03,440 us. 16 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:09,880 Do you think every person has this attraction or is it reserved for only some of us? 17 00:01:09,880 --> 00:01:13,960 Maybe only those of us having difficulties emotionally? 18 00:01:13,960 --> 00:01:18,160 Or those of us who ask for it by conjuring? 19 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:24,040 Or even those of us who are super skeptical that the universe is a throw us a curveball? 20 00:01:24,040 --> 00:01:25,400 I don't know. 21 00:01:25,400 --> 00:01:27,280 I'm curious to know your opinions. 22 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,400 What are your thoughts on this? 23 00:01:29,400 --> 00:01:34,580 I want to remind everyone to send your thoughts, ideas, and even your own experience to my 24 00:01:34,580 --> 00:01:39,440 email at mytrustoryatmyyahoo.com. 25

00:02:06,200 --> 00:02:08,240 Hi. 32 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:14,240 My name is Nancy and these stories took place back in the mid 80s when I was a young teen. 33 00:02:14,240 --> 00:02:20,240 I would spend summers at my grandmother's in a very small town, but I had some great 34 00:02:20,240 --> 00:02:26,080 friends there and we always had things to do until that summer. 35 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:32,320 It just seemed like we were restless and we got bored so easily that year and we were 36 00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:34,480 looking for new adventures. 37 00:02:34,480 --> 00:02:40,000 There was a new girl in town which was a rare thing there, nobody moved there. 38 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:41,860 And her name was Annie. 39 00:02:41,860 --> 00:02:46,160 She had just the right amount of criminal element about her that we were all fascinated 40 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:49,540 with her, except my grandmother. 41 00:02:49,540 --> 00:02:56,160 She always called her that girl and I shouldn't pal around with that girl, which of course 42 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,840 made her more interesting to me. 43 00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,020 Annie thought of things to do that we never thought of. 44 00:03:02,020 --> 00:03:07,040 She introduced us to the paranormal on a deeper level than what we already understood it to 45 00:03:07,040 --> 00:03:10,920 be and we couldn't get enough. 46 00:03:10,920 --> 00:03:16,920 To this day, I kind of feel like Annie had a lot to do with the strange things we all 47 00:03:16,920 --> 00:03:17,980 experienced. 48 00:03:17,980 --> 00:03:23,840 She was a troubled youth, and I mean badly troubled, and I feel like she was maybe a 49 00:03:23,840 --> 00:03:27,840 magnet for whatever forces touched us that summer. 50 00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:33,440 This of course is only speculation, I suppose it could have just been the perfect storm 51 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:39,640 of each of us coming together with open minds and willing hearts. 52 00:03:39,640 --> 00:03:44,920 When Annie heard about the old abandoned house on the corner that an old man had died in, 53 00:03:44,920 --> 00:03:51,200 well, she could talk about nothing else until she talked us into having a seance there. 54 00:03:51,200 --> 00:03:56,800 It didn't take much persuasion as we were all excited and eagerly made our plans. 55 00:03:56,800 --> 00:04:00,140 Annie always had the best ideas. 56 00:04:00,140 --> 00:04:06,680 There was myself, Annie, Renee, Laura, and one boy named Nick. 57 00:04:06,680 --> 00:04:13,540 We were all around 13 to 15 years old and we were rarely ever apart. 58 00:04:13,540 --> 00:04:15,440 So the plans were set. 59 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,400 Nick would bring some tools to break in. 60 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:25,920 The rest divided up bringing candles, matches, flashlights, and whatever else we needed. 61 00:04:25,920 --> 00:04:31,720 We were to meet at 9pm that night, so we went home to eat dinner and lie to our parents 62 00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:36,560 or grandparents in my case, then head out to our great adventure. 63 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:41,900 And it never occurred to us that this night would likely stay with us for the rest of 64 00:04:41,900 --> 00:04:42,900 our lives. 65 00:04:42,900 --> 00:04:46,480 It didn't take us long to gain access to the house. 66 00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,720 Nick did a great job getting the cellar door unlocked. 67 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:55,480 He chose that entrance as it was hidden in the darkness behind the house. 68 00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,040 The cellar smelled dank and moldy. 69 00:05:00,040 --> 00:05:01,920 There were sounds we weren't expecting. 70 00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,440 We could hear water dripping somewhere. 71 00:05:05,440 --> 00:05:10,560 Renee was supposed to bring two flashlights, but she only brought one and it was weak. 72 00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:15,440 It was very hard to see in there as there were no windows to let in the light from the 73 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,680 streetlights outside. 74 00:05:17,680 --> 00:05:22,280 We were already creeped out and we were only about 5 steps in. 75 00:05:22,280 --> 00:05:24,760 But we were having fun, right? 76 00:05:24,760 --> 00:05:29,160 When we spotted the stairs, we made our way up to the kitchen. 77 00:05:29,160 --> 00:05:35,840 Nothing much to see really, some old appliances, kitchen table covered with dust. 78 00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:41,680 We were now joking and light-hearted as it was way less scary upstairs, plus the streetlights 79 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,840 outside provided us with an ambient light. 80 00:05:45,840 --> 00:05:50,920 We were joking and teasing each other when we all thought we heard something upstairs 81 00:05:50,920 --> 00:05:54,240 being moved across the floor. 82 00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:57,480 We all stopped and listened. 83 00:05:57,480 --> 00:05:58,480 Nothing. 84 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,480 So, we laughed at ourselves. 85 00:06:00,480 --> 00:06:06,200 I remember Nick saying we were the scariest thing in this house and we all laughed again. 86 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,200 There was that sound upstairs. 87 00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,120 We stopped again. 88 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:15,880 And then Nick said, oh, it's probably squirrels being disturbed by us. 89 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:18,920 He suggested we go upstairs to find out. 90 00:06:18,920 --> 00:06:23,280 So, being young and curious, we went upstairs. 91 00:06:23,280 --> 00:06:26,880 Halfway up the steps, we heard it again. 92 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:32,320 And Nick said, see, I told you, it's some animal and it's scared of us. 93 00:06:32,320 --> 00:06:36,320 Still carefree, we headed up to the top. 94 00:06:36,320 --> 00:06:42,480 Once at the top, we kind of split off from one another, all exploring the different rooms, 95 00:06:42,480 --> 00:06:44,640 still trying to spook each other. 96 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:49,080 Then we heard that sliding sound again. 97 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:52,640 Nick yelled, okay, whose room did that come in? 98 00:06:52,640 --> 00:06:55,200 We all waited for the other to answer. 99 00:06:55,200 --> 00:06:57,740 I said, well, it wasn't in this room. 100 00:06:57,740 --> 00:07:00,760 It sounded like it was from the room next to mine. 101 00:07:00,760 --> 00:07:03,940 But that's what everyone else said too. 102 00:07:03,940 --> 00:07:08,920 Even though the upstairs was large, and if that sound happened at one end of the house, 103 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:12,640 there would be no way to have heard it so close at the other end. 104 00:07:12,640 --> 00:07:13,800 Hmm. 105 00:07:13,800 --> 00:07:18,000 We all thought about it and decided to continue exploring. 106 00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:20,640 Except now we would stay a little closer together. 107 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:24,400 We found a lot of old junk just laying around. 108 00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:27,880 A few of us were throwing some of it at each other. 109 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:30,640 Just being kids, having a blast. 110 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:35,080 Suddenly, there was a huge slam downstairs. 111 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:40,000 And I mean, it was like a house shaking boom. 112 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,420 We instantly froze, staring at each other. 113 00:07:43,420 --> 00:07:46,680 And then it happened again. 114 00:07:46,680 --> 00:07:52,560 Hoping for an answer that would calm our hearts, we waited and heard nothing. 115 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:55,720 Nick said, oh man, I was worried. 116 00:07:55,720 --> 00:07:58,120 I thought, I thought we were busted. 117 00:07:58,120 --> 00:08:00,680 Well, what the hell was that then Nick? 118 00:08:00,680 --> 00:08:02,160 I asked. 119 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:07,080 He shrugged, said he didn't care as long as it wasn't the cops. 120 00:08:07,080 --> 00:08:08,400 Nick was the oldest of us. 121 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:13,560 So I guess we just followed suit as he did not seem afraid. 122 00:08:13,560 --> 00:08:16,800 So hesitantly, we carried on with our excursion. 123 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:22,040 Altogether now though, we went into the only room nobody had been in yet. 124 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,800 It was the only door that was shut upstairs. 125 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:32,760 In this room, this room gave an instant, and I'm at a loss for words even today, it gave 126 00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:38,360 an instant feeling like sadness, depression. 127 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:43,920 If it could be felt in a room, then I suppose that that's what this room felt like. 128 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,560 This room was sad. 129 00:08:46,560 --> 00:08:49,360 All the joking and laughter had stopped. 130 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:52,760 I don't even think we realized that we were so quiet. 131 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:58,040 I really believe now looking back that the sadness of this room somehow affected all 132 00:08:58,040 --> 00:08:59,280 of us. 133 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:02,720 As minutes ago, we were carrying on like children. 134 00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:07,560 And now we were sullen and not really as interested. 135 00:09:07,560 --> 00:09:11,760 So we were looking around this room in total silence. 136 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,400 And then it began to get cold. 137 00:09:14,400 --> 00:09:21,720 I know, I know that sounds cliche, but I am telling you, you could feel it getting colder. 138 00:09:21,720 --> 00:09:25,380 One of us said, why is it so cold in here? 139 00:09:25,380 --> 00:09:28,760 We knew that outside it was a hot summer night. 140 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,960 If anything, it should be blazing hot up here. 141 00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:35,440 But none of us knew the answer. 142 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:42,360 I honestly don't think any of us heard of a cold room being related to paranormal instances. 143 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:48,080 We actually knew very little and even less about what was coming our way. 144 00:09:48,080 --> 00:09:51,240 This room had the most junk in it. 145 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:56,400 We all busied ourselves going through it, maybe hoping for something exciting. 146 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:01,000 Nick said he wanted to go back to the room he was in before and he would be right back. 147 00:10:01,000 --> 00:10:05,480 But we barely noticed him leaving the room. 148 00:10:05,480 --> 00:10:08,740 Then out of nowhere, we heard Nick scream. 149 00:10:08,740 --> 00:10:10,660 He screamed for help. 150 00:10:10,660 --> 00:10:18,440 After a loud thud, we ran to the room where he was and he was pinned between the closet 151 00:10:18,440 --> 00:10:20,320 and the old dresser. 152 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:24,360 He was crushed against the wall so that he could not even turn around. 153 00:10:24,360 --> 00:10:30,440 And this dresser was old school, solid wood and solidly heavy. 154 00:10:30,440 --> 00:10:33,480 It took all of us to move it away. 155 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:37,080 Nick was breathing heavy and he looked scared. 156 00:10:37,080 --> 00:10:41,600 We asked what happened and he said he was going to look in the closet and the dresser 157 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:44,280 moved and pinned him on its own. 158 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,880 Right Nick, stop trying to scare us. 159 00:10:47,880 --> 00:10:49,720 We would have heard it move. 160 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:54,440 He swears it did and that it made no sound when it moved because it was floating across 161 00:10:54,440 --> 00:11:00,760 the room and the thud we heard was the dresser setting itself back down. 162 00:11:00,760 --> 00:11:06,440 Okay Nick, well we definitely thought Nick was trying to put a scare into us girls but 163 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:10,120 I wondered why he looked so afraid. 164 00:11:10,120 --> 00:11:13,480 That maybe he wasn't faking? 165 00:11:13,480 --> 00:11:15,920 And why we never heard the dresser move. 166 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:19,400 Anyway, so Nick thought we should leave now. 167 00:11:19,400 --> 00:11:25,480 Annie said that maybe the neighbors would have heard us and but you know Annie she was 168 00:11:25,480 --> 00:11:26,960 having none of this. 169 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:30,600 She said let's go, we are doing this. 170 00:11:30,600 --> 00:11:32,680 We headed back downstairs. 171 00:11:32,680 --> 00:11:34,800 We went into the living room. 172 00:11:34,800 --> 00:11:39,080 I remember looking out the front window at cars going by. 173 00:11:39,080 --> 00:11:45,200 People across the street sitting out in the evening air and I remember thinking how normal 174 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:48,200 everything seemed out there. 175 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:52,800 And how in comparison I felt out of order. 176 00:11:52,800 --> 00:11:58,600 I felt very strange ever since being in that last cold bedroom. 177 00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:00,440 I felt alone. 178 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:05,120 I felt disconnected from the whole world. 179 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:12,040 Looking back I wonder was that how the old man felt as he looked out his windows? 180 00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:17,000 I wanted to leave too but I could not leave if the cool kids didn't leave. 181 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,760 There are normal peer pressure folks. 182 00:12:19,760 --> 00:12:24,480 So we decided to do our seance in the living room on the floor. 183 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:30,600 With Annie being the experienced one she drew up some symbols on the floor. 184 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:37,400 Then she lit some candles and proceeded to instruct us on how a seance worked. 185 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:44,440 So we all sat cross legged on the floor in a circle and there was that sound again. 186 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:46,480 Ignore it Annie said. 187 00:12:46,480 --> 00:12:51,540 We have to be focused on what we were doing or it wouldn't work she said. 188 00:12:51,540 --> 00:12:54,580 So we all did our best to do as she told us. 189 00:12:54,580 --> 00:12:57,760 She began by asking questions. 190 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:02,280 Then it was several questions later and several no answers. 191 00:13:02,280 --> 00:13:03,520 Nothing. 192 00:13:03,520 --> 00:13:09,160 I was thinking this was dumb and just I just wanted to leave when we all heard it. 193 00:13:09,160 --> 00:13:14,400 A far away voice. 194 00:13:14,400 --> 00:13:16,880 It's working Annie said. 195 00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:18,360 Where was that I asked? 196 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:20,840 I think upstairs Nick said. 197 00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,240 No I said. 198 00:13:22,240 --> 00:13:25,200 It was probably the neighbors. 199 00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:26,200 Neighbors next door. 200 00:13:26,200 --> 00:13:27,200 Shhh. 201 00:13:27,200 --> 00:13:29,040 Annie said to shut up. 202 00:13:29,040 --> 00:13:30,320 She asked. 203 00:13:30,320 --> 00:13:37,880 Spirit show us a sign that you are here and we listened in silence. 204 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:42,560 Still listening as Annie held her hand up to silence us. 205 00:13:42,560 --> 00:13:44,880 We all heard whispering. 206 00:13:44,880 --> 00:13:53,740 Low at first then louder until it was all around us and now crying. 207 00:13:53,740 --> 00:13:55,940 Someone was crying. 208 00:13:55,940 --> 00:14:01,680 Then I could feel static electricity literally all around us. 209 00:14:01,680 --> 00:14:04,040 Okay that was enough for me. 210 00:14:04,040 --> 00:14:07,020 I stood up ready to leave. 211 00:14:07,020 --> 00:14:08,960 My back to the front door. 212 00:14:08,960 --> 00:14:14,280 I was facing the kitchen directly in front of my view at the far side of the kitchen 213 00:14:14,280 --> 00:14:18,160 was a powder room and I could see the toilet in there. 214 00:14:18,160 --> 00:14:25,800 I could also see an old man sitting on it and he was pointing at me. 215 00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,000 His face full of rage. 216 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:35,800 A seething hatred and he opened his mouth as if in a scream but no sound came from him. 217 00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:38,120 No sound except my scream. 218 00:14:38,120 --> 00:14:43,240 My scream got everyone on their feet and running towards the door. 219 00:14:43,240 --> 00:14:47,180 It burst open to our surprise it wasn't even locked. 220 00:14:47,180 --> 00:14:50,080 This all seemed to be in slow motion. 221 00:14:50,080 --> 00:14:51,960 We were trying to get out. 222 00:14:51,960 --> 00:14:56,480 Running into each other and shocking each other from the strange static electricity 223 00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:59,720 charge that we all suddenly had. 224 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:05,500 When I turned to see the old man he was naked and walking towards us. 225 00:15:05,500 --> 00:15:09,440 He was walking quicker than he looked capable of. 226 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:12,040 I began screaming go go go go. 227 00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,880 The girl behind me Laura grabbed my arm. 228 00:15:15,880 --> 00:15:21,720 As I turned to look at her I could see her head being yanked backwards by something I 229 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:23,400 could not see. 230 00:15:23,400 --> 00:15:26,280 Her face was filled with terror. 231 00:15:26,280 --> 00:15:29,480 Her hands grasped at her throat. 232 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:34,920 I did not see the old man anymore but I did see her necklace break from her neck and go 233 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:41,040 flying and then I pulled her toward me and we fell outside onto the front porch. 234 00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:43,660 What happened I asked her. 235 00:15:43,660 --> 00:15:49,920 She said as we were leaving she felt something yank her backwards and it was strangling her 236 00:15:49,920 --> 00:15:51,920 until she broke free. 237 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:59,220 I looked at her neck and it had a thin red line clear across her front of her throat. 238 00:15:59,220 --> 00:16:04,780 We looked back in the house and did not see anything except the necklace. 239 00:16:04,780 --> 00:16:08,280 It was now laying about half way to the kitchen. 240 00:16:08,280 --> 00:16:11,920 That necklace can stay there she said. 241 00:16:11,920 --> 00:16:13,840 We regrouped on the sidewalk. 242 00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:20,640 We were all visibly shaken and it was the last time we ever tried a seance. 243 00:16:20,640 --> 00:16:22,680 A couple side notes to this story. 244 00:16:22,680 --> 00:16:28,240 I do suppose it could be completely unrelated however it is something that has bothered 245 00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:30,520 me over the years. 246 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:34,160 Nick joined the army and was assigned to be a mechanic. 247 00:16:34,160 --> 00:16:38,880 He was accidentally crushed by a vehicle that fell on his chest. 248 00:16:38,880 --> 00:16:40,120 He died from his injuries. 249 00:16:40,120 --> 00:16:46,040 I don't know I just always thought about how he was crushed against the wall that night 250 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:51,720 and then to have died maybe five years later from a similar incident. 251 00:16:51,720 --> 00:16:54,240 This has always bothered me. 252 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:59,760 Also I found out later that the old man that lived in that house was hermit like. 253 00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:04,840 Never really leaving his house and had committed suicide in that house. 254 00:17:04,840 --> 00:17:10,120 This made me think of the sadness in that bedroom and the loneliness I felt looking 255 00:17:10,120 --> 00:17:11,720 out the window. 256 00:17:11,720 --> 00:17:17,160 It breaks my heart to think of someone feeling that way every day of their life. 257 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:20,880 I wish that old man peace in his place of rest. 258 00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:25,520 Okay well on with my next adventure with Annie. 259 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:28,880 So one day Annie and I went to her house. 260 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:33,880 She weren't really up to anything just hanging out when her mom got home. 261 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:39,120 And when she walked in the door I suddenly got the strangest feeling. 262 00:17:39,120 --> 00:17:40,120 Dizziness. 263 00:17:40,120 --> 00:17:47,880 And my eyesight went to a tunnel vision and all I could see was white roses and I could 264 00:17:47,880 --> 00:17:50,680 smell them so strongly. 265 00:17:50,680 --> 00:17:57,380 And then my head collapsed to the table and I was saying white roses no other colors. 266 00:17:57,380 --> 00:18:00,440 White roses no other colors. 267 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:06,000 When I opened my eyes Annie and her mom were very concerned and was asking me if I was 268 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:07,140 alright. 269 00:18:07,140 --> 00:18:12,280 And strangely I said no thanks I don't like tomatoes. 270 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:14,280 No tomatoes. 271 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:19,920 Then I think I truly awoke and I asked what was happening and when they told me what I 272 00:18:19,920 --> 00:18:25,440 had been saying I remembered smelling the roses and seeing the white roses. 273 00:18:25,440 --> 00:18:28,600 And I can tell you it was so vivid. 274 00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:31,040 Now Annie's mom was crying. 275 00:18:31,040 --> 00:18:36,160 I was like hey hey don't worry I'm okay really I am. 276 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:40,520 And she was shaking her head no no you don't understand. 277 00:18:40,520 --> 00:18:42,120 That was my mother. 278 00:18:42,120 --> 00:18:46,740 What Annie and I asked at the same time. 279 00:18:46,740 --> 00:18:48,360 She explained. 280 00:18:48,360 --> 00:18:54,840 When my mother was dying she kept saying she only wanted white roses at her funeral. 281 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:57,400 No other colors only white roses. 282 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:02,520 I felt a shiver go up and down my body. 283 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:04,480 And she continued. 284 00:19:04,480 --> 00:19:10,440 When my mother was a little girl they were very very poor and sometimes would only have 285 00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:13,840 the vegetables that her mother had canned to eat. 286 00:19:13,840 --> 00:19:17,480 And all too often she lived on tomatoes. 287 00:19:17,480 --> 00:19:20,420 She despised them as an adult. 288 00:19:20,420 --> 00:19:21,740 That was my mother. 289 00:19:21,740 --> 00:19:23,060 How did you do that? 290 00:19:23,060 --> 00:19:25,560 She asked me through tears. 291 00:19:25,560 --> 00:19:27,260 I had no answers. 292 00:19:27,260 --> 00:19:29,080 I had no words. 293 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:37,560 I just I shook my head and finally I just said I have no idea and I truly I truly didn't. 294 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:43,240 Another night with Annie we decided to go break into the local hotel. 295 00:19:43,240 --> 00:19:50,700 Now when I say local hotel I mean this building was ancient long shut down. 296 00:19:50,700 --> 00:19:55,800 It was from the early 1900s and was basically an eyesore to the town. 297 00:19:55,800 --> 00:20:01,920 But at one time many decades ago it was the lifeblood of the town as it served the local 298 00:20:01,920 --> 00:20:05,000 railroad and nearby highway. 299 00:20:05,000 --> 00:20:08,240 Anyway we were curious about what it looked like inside. 300 00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:15,480 We were very very aware that there were signs posted literally on every window. 301 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:17,560 No trespassing. 302 00:20:17,560 --> 00:20:20,480 But that didn't apply to us right? 303 00:20:20,480 --> 00:20:22,480 No that's what we thought. 304 00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:25,800 Our plan was to go up the stairs in the back. 305 00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:31,560 The man that now owned it lived across the street and he had rebuilt the fire escape 306 00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:37,920 so we felt that it was probably pretty safe to go up and then just go in through one of 307 00:20:37,920 --> 00:20:40,160 the windows upstairs. 308 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,440 We waited until after midnight. 309 00:20:42,440 --> 00:20:45,480 The small town went to bed early. 310 00:20:45,480 --> 00:20:51,280 There were hardly any lights on anywhere and none on at the hotel owner's house. 311 00:20:51,280 --> 00:20:56,960 So we quietly crept up the stairs to the third floor landing. 312 00:20:56,960 --> 00:20:59,760 Our hearts pounding. 313 00:20:59,760 --> 00:21:06,960 Kind of giggling at ourselves as we started trying to push the windows open but none of 314 00:21:06,960 --> 00:21:08,760 them even budged. 315 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,560 We were so disappointed. 316 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:16,560 I thought to myself well I'm not leaving without seeing the inside and I cupped my hands against 317 00:21:16,560 --> 00:21:20,960 the glass and peered into the dark hotel. 318 00:21:20,960 --> 00:21:28,280 Now I know this part may seem insane but I can tell you I thought it was insane too. 319 00:21:28,280 --> 00:21:36,440 So as I said I looked into the dark hotel and it was like someone punched all the air 320 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:37,600 out of my chest. 321 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:43,880 Like my world was only black and white and suddenly it was in color. 322 00:21:43,880 --> 00:21:49,440 Every sense I had was on fire full power and it was intoxicating. 323 00:21:49,440 --> 00:21:56,080 I gasped at what I saw and what I heard and what I felt. 324 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,320 Everything in this hallway was new. 325 00:21:58,320 --> 00:22:05,360 Beautiful bright gold and red colors bursting at me as if every light was on. 326 00:22:05,360 --> 00:22:10,920 There was a table in the hallway with a huge bouquet of red and yellow flowers. 327 00:22:10,920 --> 00:22:13,920 The table was trimmed in gold. 328 00:22:13,920 --> 00:22:20,340 Everything had detail and it was like it was seared in my memory because as I write this 329 00:22:20,340 --> 00:22:22,120 I can still see it. 330 00:22:22,120 --> 00:22:28,520 The hallway walls were wallpapered with a red and gold swirly design and from mid wall 331 00:22:28,520 --> 00:22:31,600 down it was a rich dark wood. 332 00:22:31,600 --> 00:22:33,840 I could hear a strange sound though. 333 00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:40,480 It was like a radio that maybe wasn't quite tuned or some kind of static and it was constant 334 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,720 during this entire vision. 335 00:22:42,720 --> 00:22:47,440 I could see the window at the opposite end of the hotel and it was covered in a fancy 336 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:55,160 swooping red velvety drape and then I saw a woman and she was beautiful. 337 00:22:55,160 --> 00:23:01,200 She was wearing a long beautiful green gown with white ruffled sleeves. 338 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:04,840 She looked right at me and was smiling. 339 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:10,000 Then she said, come along it's time to go. 340 00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:15,320 We have to go now and held out a white gloved hand toward me. 341 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:22,680 I was compelled to reach for her and I reached for her and then she screamed, go now. 342 00:23:22,680 --> 00:23:25,240 Nancy, Nancy. 343 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:26,620 It was Annie. 344 00:23:26,620 --> 00:23:29,240 She was whispering loudly in my ear. 345 00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:30,800 We have to go. 346 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:32,640 Confused, I followed her. 347 00:23:32,640 --> 00:23:36,080 I was dizzy and I sat down on the steps. 348 00:23:36,080 --> 00:23:41,560 Annie was frantic and pulled me up and she said, the owner is awake and he yelled at 349 00:23:41,560 --> 00:23:45,240 us to leave but I couldn't get you away from the window. 350 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:48,800 He said he's going to shoot us if we are still here when he comes back. 351 00:23:48,800 --> 00:23:50,200 Move, we have to go. 352 00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:51,980 We have to go. 353 00:23:51,980 --> 00:23:55,720 Annie was scared and that was a rare thing. 354 00:23:55,720 --> 00:23:57,880 Not much scared Annie. 355 00:23:57,880 --> 00:24:01,120 Well, I did my best to gather myself. 356 00:24:01,120 --> 00:24:06,960 Getting shot was a terrifying thought and it was finally registering that I had to hurry. 357 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:11,360 Down, down the steps, down the steps we went. 358 00:24:11,360 --> 00:24:14,200 It seemed we would never get to the bottom. 359 00:24:14,200 --> 00:24:18,840 All the while glancing at the owners house to see if he was coming for us. 360 00:24:18,840 --> 00:24:21,560 We finally reached the bottom. 361 00:24:21,560 --> 00:24:26,360 Finally and now we had to run. 362 00:24:26,360 --> 00:24:27,820 Fast. 363 00:24:27,820 --> 00:24:35,200 We split up when he fired the first shot and I was about two blocks away when I heard the 364 00:24:35,200 --> 00:24:36,880 second shot. 365 00:24:36,880 --> 00:24:43,760 I was terrified that he had shot Annie so I ran back and I spied on him. 366 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:52,640 My heart pounding but he was heading back into his house and he was laughing. 367 00:24:52,640 --> 00:24:57,760 Years later I had heard that that man never fired at people. 368 00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:05,080 He just likes scaring people away by shooting his shotgun and I can tell you it works very 369 00:25:05,080 --> 00:25:06,600 well. 370 00:25:06,600 --> 00:25:12,660 Annie and I had a few other adventures that summer and one day she just wasn't home anymore 371 00:25:12,660 --> 00:25:14,640 neither was her mom. 372 00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:21,840 I heard that her mom had to move because she lost her job and her home and Annie was finally 373 00:25:21,840 --> 00:25:25,640 in enough trouble that she was put into juvenile detention. 374 00:25:25,640 --> 00:25:27,640 I never saw her again. 375 00:25:27,640 --> 00:25:31,520 I often wonder what had ever happened to her. 376 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:33,800 Wherever she is I hope she is well. 377 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:37,760 I hope she thinks of me and smiles. 378 00:25:37,760 --> 00:25:41,600 So that sums up the one summer I spent with Annie. 379 00:25:41,600 --> 00:25:44,240 I never had another summer like it. 380 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:50,240 I never had any other visions like I had at her house or at the hotel. 381 00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:56,000 I have never been attacked by a spirit like we were at the old house on the corner. 382 00:25:56,000 --> 00:26:01,840 And again I never had another friend like Annie. 383 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:07,040 Well thank you Nancy for this story of your summer with Annie. 384 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:13,680 I can only imagine how intense these experiences were especially at such a young age. 385 00:26:13,680 --> 00:26:18,720 Annie definitely sounds like a risk taker and I also wish her well and hope she is out 386 00:26:18,720 --> 00:26:20,220 there somewhere. 387 00:26:20,220 --> 00:26:23,880 I am truly sorry though for the tragic loss of your friend Nick. 388 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:26,680 I wish him peace in his afterlife. 389 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:33,000 So this story is a real trip, a true adventure and I do think in this case maybe Annie may 390 00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:35,160 have had a pull on certain events. 391 00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:39,080 Who knows it's all speculation at this point. 392 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:41,300 But thanks again for sharing. 393 00:26:41,300 --> 00:26:50,240 So you may leave comments, ideas, and even your own true story at this
