1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,160
Welcome back to Internet Frenzy.

2
00:00:03,160 --> 00:00:04,160
Yay!

3
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:05,160
What's happening?

4
00:00:05,160 --> 00:00:06,160
We back.

5
00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:07,160
We're back, baby.

6
00:00:07,160 --> 00:00:09,080
Well, we're really excited.

7
00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:15,000
We've got a really fun episode this week, but just a quick recap of what happened last

8
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:16,000
week.

9
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:22,320
So last week, we had our guests on, Essence Sammy, and we talked all about pet peeves.

10
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:27,440
It was absolutely hilarious, but we have not found out who the fake is yet, so let's talk

11
00:00:27,440 --> 00:00:29,200
about that.

12
00:00:29,200 --> 00:00:32,720
Who would like to raise their hand impolitely?

13
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,220
Be honest.

14
00:00:34,220 --> 00:00:37,720
Was me.

15
00:00:37,720 --> 00:00:40,880
It wasn't me.

16
00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:41,880
It wasn't me.

17
00:00:41,880 --> 00:00:42,880
It was me!

18
00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:43,880
Oh.

19
00:00:43,880 --> 00:00:46,380
Marley was the fake.

20
00:00:46,380 --> 00:00:47,380
Yes, I was.

21
00:00:47,380 --> 00:00:48,380
Oh my goodness.

22
00:00:48,380 --> 00:00:50,280
Well, you stumped all of us.

23
00:00:50,280 --> 00:00:51,280
Yes, so?

24
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:52,960
You're just the best.

25
00:00:52,960 --> 00:00:55,400
It was a lot of pressure with two extra people.

26
00:00:55,400 --> 00:00:56,400
Yeah.

27
00:00:56,400 --> 00:01:01,280
I was like, fake, like it, and I was sitting right next to Sammy, and I was like, please,

28
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:02,280
don't.

29
00:01:02,280 --> 00:01:03,760
I like brightness all the way down.

30
00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:06,400
I'm like, please don't catch me.

31
00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:07,400
It's hilarious.

32
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:08,720
But no, it was such a good episode.

33
00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:09,720
Yeah, it was great.

34
00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:10,800
It was so fun.

35
00:01:10,800 --> 00:01:12,600
We need to have Essence Sammy back.

36
00:01:12,600 --> 00:01:33,840
We already missed them, but this week is going to be a banger.

37
00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:39,120
As you can tell on our YouTube right now, if you're watching, we are all wearing costumes.

38
00:01:39,120 --> 00:01:41,800
And for our podcast listeners, we will describe what we are.

39
00:01:41,800 --> 00:01:44,040
The Whitney aka me is a cowgirl.

40
00:01:44,040 --> 00:01:45,040
Woo.

41
00:01:45,040 --> 00:01:46,040
She looks so cute.

42
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:47,040
Thanks.

43
00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:48,040
So cowgirl.

44
00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,040
What are you, Joe?

45
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:50,040
I am Alan from the Hangover.

46
00:01:50,040 --> 00:01:51,040
That's my guy.

47
00:01:51,040 --> 00:01:53,560
He has a baby strep to his chest.

48
00:01:53,560 --> 00:01:54,560
That's right.

49
00:01:54,560 --> 00:01:55,560
Thanks a lot, Bin Laden.

50
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,440
With my mom's sunglasses on.

51
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:58,440
Hey.

52
00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:02,360
He walked all 500 feet to get on tonight.

53
00:02:02,360 --> 00:02:03,360
Respect.

54
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:04,360
Love it.

55
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,360
I am a robber.

56
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:11,360
I'm Isaiah and a surfer man.

57
00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:15,240
Don't do that.

58
00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:18,240
Don't do that.

59
00:02:18,240 --> 00:02:22,520
Well, we've got our costumes on.

60
00:02:22,520 --> 00:02:28,080
Halloween's coming up and we are ready to provide for you the most epic Halloween stories

61
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,600
you have ever heard in your entire life.

62
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:38,000
So this episode is called Halloween Horror, spooky Reddit stories to keep you up at night.

63
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:39,000
I like love that.

64
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:43,120
I love like, like even looking for all the story, like looking for the story.

65
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,640
I was like, I just love reading stuff like this.

66
00:02:46,640 --> 00:02:47,640
Let's go.

67
00:02:47,640 --> 00:02:51,240
My dudes, this one is gnarly from cheer off my chest.

68
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:52,720
Oh, gnarly.

69
00:02:52,720 --> 00:02:53,720
Really?

70
00:02:53,720 --> 00:02:54,720
Yeah, you guys aren't ready.

71
00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:56,720
Guys, I need all the lights turned on.

72
00:02:56,720 --> 00:02:58,220
I'm scared.

73
00:02:58,220 --> 00:03:01,160
If you're with us podcast listeners, be safe out there.

74
00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:02,160
Turn your lights on.

75
00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:08,560
I killed my little brother and my stepdad is in prison for it.

76
00:03:08,560 --> 00:03:12,280
I've been holding this in for almost two decades and I don't know how much longer I can live

77
00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:13,280
with myself.

78
00:03:13,280 --> 00:03:17,200
I'm 31 now, married and I have a baby boy of my own.

79
00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:20,120
But every time I look at him, I'm reminded of what I did.

80
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:22,320
When I was 13, I killed my little brother.

81
00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,640
He was only six.

82
00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:26,440
It was summer and my mom had just started dating a new guy.

83
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:27,720
Let's call him Vincent.

84
00:03:27,720 --> 00:03:32,360
He was rough around the edges, worked construction and was always either dead tired or in a bad

85
00:03:32,360 --> 00:03:33,360
mood.

86
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:34,880
My mom was working double shifts at the time.

87
00:03:34,880 --> 00:03:37,620
So Vincent watched over us more often than she did.

88
00:03:37,620 --> 00:03:41,120
My little brother Ethan and I spent a lot of time with him, but we never really liked

89
00:03:41,120 --> 00:03:42,120
him.

90
00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:43,120
He was just there.

91
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:47,880
I remember overhearing my mom and Vincent arguing late at night, mostly about money,

92
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,080
but sometimes about us, the kids.

93
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,640
Vincent always seemed annoyed by having to take care of us.

94
00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,480
One day it was just me and Ethan and Vincent at home.

95
00:03:55,480 --> 00:03:58,760
Vincent was in one of his moods, sitting in the living room drinking a beer even though

96
00:03:58,760 --> 00:04:00,040
it was barely noon.

97
00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:04,800
Ethan was being his usual self, loud, hyper, annoying like a six year old tends to be.

98
00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:07,760
He wanted to play hide and seek and I just wanted to be left alone.

99
00:04:07,760 --> 00:04:11,640
We were in the backyard and Ethan kept running up to me, tagging me, laughing and running

100
00:04:11,640 --> 00:04:12,640
away.

101
00:04:12,640 --> 00:04:13,640
I snapped.

102
00:04:13,640 --> 00:04:16,280
I yelled at him to stop, but he just thought it was part of the game.

103
00:04:16,280 --> 00:04:17,360
I don't know what came over me.

104
00:04:17,360 --> 00:04:18,720
It's like I lost control.

105
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:19,880
I pushed him.

106
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:20,880
Hard.

107
00:04:20,880 --> 00:04:22,360
I wasn't even thinking.

108
00:04:22,360 --> 00:04:25,800
He tripped over a rock or something and he hit his head on the edge of the patio.

109
00:04:25,800 --> 00:04:30,280
The sound of his skull cracking was so sharp, like something breaking inside me too.

110
00:04:30,280 --> 00:04:32,000
He just laid there not moving.

111
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:34,280
Blood started pooling under his head and I froze.

112
00:04:34,280 --> 00:04:38,000
I tried calling his name, shaking him, but he didn't respond.

113
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:39,960
I ran to the living room to get Vincent.

114
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,800
He stumbled out, saw Ethan and started panicking.

115
00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:47,040
I was crying hysterically, telling him it was an accident, but he wasn't listening.

116
00:04:47,040 --> 00:04:50,840
He picked Ethan up, screaming at me and ran inside to call 911.

117
00:04:50,840 --> 00:04:53,720
When the paramedics came, they tried everything, but it was too late.

118
00:04:53,720 --> 00:04:54,720
He was already gone.

119
00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,660
The police arrived soon after and that's when everything changed.

120
00:04:57,660 --> 00:05:00,280
I was still in shock, not knowing what to say.

121
00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:04,440
Vincent was acting weird, defensive and angry and he told them it was an accident, but the

122
00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:05,680
police were suspicious.

123
00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:08,280
They questioned us separately and I stayed quiet.

124
00:05:08,280 --> 00:05:09,600
I was terrified.

125
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,920
Vincent already had a record, a couple of DUIs and some domestic disputes from his past

126
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,760
relationship, so they zeroed in on him.

127
00:05:16,760 --> 00:05:19,440
When they found out he had been drinking that day, it was game over.

128
00:05:19,440 --> 00:05:23,040
They charged him with manslaughter, claiming he'd been neglectful, that his drunkenness

129
00:05:23,040 --> 00:05:24,560
led to Ethan's death.

130
00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:25,560
I let them believe that.

131
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,240
I was too scared to admit the truth.

132
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,280
I let them take Vincent away.

133
00:05:29,280 --> 00:05:31,040
Vincent was sentenced to 20 years.

134
00:05:31,040 --> 00:05:33,960
My mom never forgave him, she cut all ties after that.

135
00:05:33,960 --> 00:05:36,120
We moved and she eventually married someone else.

136
00:05:36,120 --> 00:05:38,360
It was like Vincent never even existed.

137
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:40,360
My mom never once suspected me.

138
00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:44,400
She couldn't bear to think her daughter could have been responsible for something so horrible.

139
00:05:44,400 --> 00:05:48,280
I learned to keep quiet, to bury the guilt so deep that sometimes even I could forget

140
00:05:48,280 --> 00:05:49,960
it, at least for a little while.

141
00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,080
But now I have a child of my own, a son who just turned one, and every time I look at

142
00:05:54,080 --> 00:05:56,000
him I'm reminded of Ethan.

143
00:05:56,000 --> 00:06:00,240
I can't help but think how fragile he is, how easily I could lose control again.

144
00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,200
The guilt has been eating me alive and I've started having nightmares.

145
00:06:03,200 --> 00:06:07,320
I see Ethan's face, lifeless, with that pool of blood beneath him and I wake up sweating

146
00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:08,480
in my heart racing.

147
00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,960
I know I should confess, I know Vincent is rotting in prison for something I did.

148
00:06:12,960 --> 00:06:15,160
But if I come forward now, I'll destroy everything.

149
00:06:15,160 --> 00:06:18,000
My family, my marriage, I'm not sure I could handle the fallout.

150
00:06:18,000 --> 00:06:19,520
But how do I live with myself?

151
00:06:19,520 --> 00:06:22,680
How do I explain this to my son when he's old enough to understand?

152
00:06:22,680 --> 00:06:24,680
I'm terrified that one day I'll snap again.

153
00:06:24,680 --> 00:06:28,480
I'm terrified that what's inside me is darker than I ever wanted to admit.

154
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,000
I don't expect forgiveness, I just need to get this out.

155
00:06:31,000 --> 00:06:34,320
It's been suffocating me for years and I don't know how much longer I can carry it.

156
00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:37,560
I killed my brother and I let an innocent man take the fall for it.

157
00:06:37,560 --> 00:06:40,440
I highly can't, that really gives me anxiety.

158
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,440
The chills.

159
00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:45,080
So this girl was 13 years old when she pushed her brother.

160
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:48,120
She pushed him, he's 6.

161
00:06:48,120 --> 00:06:51,200
Just like a little, poor little boy.

162
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:53,920
Just being a boy, just playing.

163
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:54,920
Oh.

164
00:06:54,920 --> 00:06:55,920
Oh.

165
00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,440
At least it was a pure accident.

166
00:06:58,440 --> 00:06:59,440
Yeah.

167
00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:01,840
But now she's in way deep.

168
00:07:01,840 --> 00:07:03,120
Well yeah, she's in deep.

169
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:06,120
But she needs to go say something.

170
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:07,880
She has to.

171
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:15,640
She has to go tell the cops, to be not guilty, you have to go and get it resolved with the

172
00:07:15,640 --> 00:07:16,640
law.

173
00:07:16,640 --> 00:07:18,120
The dude's already served 18 years.

174
00:07:18,120 --> 00:07:20,320
He's sent it to the Oms.

175
00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,080
He's gonna go and get her.

176
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:23,080
He should.

177
00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:25,960
But he probably doesn't know, she's the reason why.

178
00:07:25,960 --> 00:07:26,960
He was drunk.

179
00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,080
And he's probably like, oh, I didn't remember.

180
00:07:29,080 --> 00:07:31,600
He just thinks he was wrongfully accused.

181
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,360
He doesn't know really what happened.

182
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:34,920
I mean, not after this story.

183
00:07:34,920 --> 00:07:36,240
He's gonna see that.

184
00:07:36,240 --> 00:07:37,920
You think so?

185
00:07:37,920 --> 00:07:42,880
It's so crazy too to think that he didn't, just because of his criminal history, he had

186
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:46,400
DUIs and he had domestic disputes before.

187
00:07:46,400 --> 00:07:49,920
The responding officers, it was like they just tied it up really quick.

188
00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:50,920
Right.

189
00:07:50,920 --> 00:07:56,680
And he was drinking and his criminal history, that made it so the police were just like,

190
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,440
okay, this is over and done.

191
00:07:58,440 --> 00:07:59,600
No easy investigation.

192
00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:04,360
Yeah, no investigation, exceeding that.

193
00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:06,720
This guy's responsible for this poor little boy.

194
00:08:06,720 --> 00:08:08,200
Well, think about it.

195
00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:12,000
Really, think about what her life would look like now.

196
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,200
She would have, I would say, she would have gone to jail or juvie or whatever.

197
00:08:16,200 --> 00:08:18,200
Yeah, what would have happened in 13?

198
00:08:18,200 --> 00:08:22,320
No, something, gone, yes, she would have gone to jail.

199
00:08:22,320 --> 00:08:23,320
13?

200
00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:25,160
13 years old, pure accident.

201
00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,160
It wasn't an accident.

202
00:08:26,160 --> 00:08:27,480
She shoved his ass.

203
00:08:27,480 --> 00:08:30,040
Okay, but she wasn't trying to kill him.

204
00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:32,680
Whitney, how many times did you push Isaiah?

205
00:08:32,680 --> 00:08:33,680
Never.

206
00:08:33,680 --> 00:08:35,480
I never laid my hands on Isaiah.

207
00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:41,120
Did my old chase and then playing with me could have hurt me.

208
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:44,400
They could have, like, being that little.

209
00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:52,520
She even said in the story that she feels like she has this dark, twisted, angry, where

210
00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:53,520
she'll just snap.

211
00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:54,520
When you're 13.

212
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:55,520
But she hasn't.

213
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,080
But she still says that.

214
00:08:57,080 --> 00:09:00,320
Well, I think just because she feels guilty about what happened.

215
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:03,480
And she's like, I've done it once, I could do it again.

216
00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:05,760
I think it's more just an anxiety thing.

217
00:09:05,760 --> 00:09:06,760
You think so?

218
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:07,760
You don't think she's an evil?

219
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:08,760
I don't think she's like pure evil.

220
00:09:08,760 --> 00:09:09,760
No.

221
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:16,200
I mean, think about her life already too, like she grew up, mom was already divorced

222
00:09:16,200 --> 00:09:17,200
before she was 13.

223
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,000
Like she didn't have a great childhood.

224
00:09:20,000 --> 00:09:25,720
She gets married to this guy that has a bad past and now she has to live with them.

225
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,720
He's getting drunk all the time in the house.

226
00:09:27,720 --> 00:09:28,840
She's not being taken care of.

227
00:09:28,840 --> 00:09:31,000
Well, yeah, she's with him majority of the time.

228
00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:36,240
Like obviously, like, and it's not an excuse for her to push the little brother, but at

229
00:09:36,240 --> 00:09:39,440
the end of the day, she wasn't trying to kill the little brother whatsoever.

230
00:09:39,440 --> 00:09:42,600
Just perfectly wrong place, wrong time.

231
00:09:42,600 --> 00:09:49,040
Like she said she shoved him hard, but like he had to be straight tossed to hit his head

232
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:50,440
on the patio and die from that.

233
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,880
I think she would go to Juvenile.

234
00:09:52,880 --> 00:09:55,080
I don't know why I think that.

235
00:09:55,080 --> 00:10:03,920
I've never heard of a kid killing their sibling accident or not and not having a big punishment.

236
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:05,920
Where?

237
00:10:05,920 --> 00:10:10,840
But I mean, it's just weird because 13 is like five years away from being an adult.

238
00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:15,400
So at some point there's a line where like you can't hold the kid for five years and

239
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,640
then charge them as an adult.

240
00:10:17,640 --> 00:10:21,840
And if they're being charged as a kid, the punishments always way less severe.

241
00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:23,400
Well, and that's what I'm saying.

242
00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:26,800
I'm not saying they would charge her as an adult and wait or whatever.

243
00:10:26,800 --> 00:10:30,760
I'm just saying she, I do think she would have gone to Juvenile.

244
00:10:30,760 --> 00:10:32,320
So what would happen now though?

245
00:10:32,320 --> 00:10:34,640
Like what if she was like, hey, she can clean now.

246
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:35,960
I did this.

247
00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:36,960
You think so?

248
00:10:36,960 --> 00:10:42,560
Yes, because this guy has been sitting in jail for 18 years because she didn't say anything.

249
00:10:42,560 --> 00:10:43,960
So does the sentence restart?

250
00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,640
Is it like, oh, you actually did this.

251
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:46,640
So you're going to get the man.

252
00:10:46,640 --> 00:10:51,920
Or she'll have to like pay him compensation or something for like the life that he's

253
00:10:51,920 --> 00:10:53,480
lost being in jail.

254
00:10:53,480 --> 00:10:59,280
I also think why don't cops just sit on Reddit and wait for stories like this to come up

255
00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:00,600
and it's like, gotcha.

256
00:11:00,600 --> 00:11:02,120
Because they can't come.

257
00:11:02,120 --> 00:11:03,720
They have a jurisdiction.

258
00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:06,280
So it's like, no one knows where this person is.

259
00:11:06,280 --> 00:11:07,280
Obviously they could like go.

260
00:11:07,280 --> 00:11:10,400
But that's not, that's not cops.

261
00:11:10,400 --> 00:11:12,760
That's like the CIA or the FBI.

262
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:13,760
Like that's like, federal.

263
00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:14,760
What's the column?

264
00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:15,760
Why don't they do it?

265
00:11:15,760 --> 00:11:16,760
Yeah.

266
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:17,760
I mean, I'm sure that's the thing.

267
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:22,120
Maybe maybe maybe people will delete their post or whatever, but they could trace the

268
00:11:22,120 --> 00:11:24,160
IP address and like figure it all out.

269
00:11:24,160 --> 00:11:25,160
I'm sure.

270
00:11:25,160 --> 00:11:26,160
That'd be crazy.

271
00:11:26,160 --> 00:11:29,880
I wonder if there are murder solved because of Reddit posts.

272
00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:34,840
There's special people that sit on like social media to try to find like just things out

273
00:11:34,840 --> 00:11:35,840
of nowhere.

274
00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:41,200
Well, I'm sure there's even some Reddit people that like find stuff like that and then like

275
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:46,000
look like a, oh, like little boy kill, like if there were any headlines about it or like,

276
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,000
I'm sure there's people out there that just have literally nothing else to do.

277
00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:50,000
Trying to find their own.

278
00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:51,000
Yeah.

279
00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,760
We have the term is internet sleuths.

280
00:11:52,760 --> 00:11:53,760
Sleuths.

281
00:11:53,760 --> 00:11:57,040
It seems like she's on the edge to finally confess though.

282
00:11:57,040 --> 00:11:58,040
Yeah.

283
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,360
I'm now telling people like, don't confess.

284
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:02,360
You have a one year old.

285
00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:03,360
I don't know.

286
00:12:03,360 --> 00:12:04,360
You got to confess.

287
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:08,320
Take that one off with Jesus.

288
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:11,440
That's the thing is like only God can judge her.

289
00:12:11,440 --> 00:12:16,760
No, but for real, that's that's really a difficult thing because I just don't have any faith

290
00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:18,480
in the judicial system.

291
00:12:18,480 --> 00:12:23,440
The fact that like that guy could go to jail for 18 years for something he didn't do.

292
00:12:23,440 --> 00:12:26,040
And then like, they just restart the clock for her.

293
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,720
If she were to come out, like the whole thing.

294
00:12:27,720 --> 00:12:32,320
I don't think that would happen, but there would be, I feel like there definitely would

295
00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:33,320
be some.

296
00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:35,480
Oh, there'd be major consequences.

297
00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:36,480
Yeah.

298
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:37,480
Her life would change.

299
00:12:37,480 --> 00:12:42,040
I'd be doing my homework as to like what, what the consequences would actually be before

300
00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,360
I would just like going.

301
00:12:43,360 --> 00:12:44,560
Yeah, I guess that's true.

302
00:12:44,560 --> 00:12:48,720
But then again, I would, I, when I was 13, I definitely would have been like, Hey, cops,

303
00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:50,080
I did this, bro.

304
00:12:50,080 --> 00:12:51,080
Like it wasn't him.

305
00:12:51,080 --> 00:12:53,520
I pushed my little brother because I was stupid.

306
00:12:53,520 --> 00:12:55,080
Like, that would be so hard.

307
00:12:55,080 --> 00:12:56,080
I don't think I would.

308
00:12:56,080 --> 00:12:59,520
I feel like so traumatized at that point and you're just like, and it's a girl too.

309
00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,760
You want to know what else is crazy?

310
00:13:01,760 --> 00:13:03,640
This was in the front yard, right?

311
00:13:03,640 --> 00:13:04,640
It doesn't specify.

312
00:13:04,640 --> 00:13:06,160
It just says in the yard.

313
00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,160
Okay.

314
00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:10,160
Well, crazy that there was no witnesses.

315
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,960
If it's like, I was totally picturing like somewhere in the south with like tall trees

316
00:13:13,960 --> 00:13:18,440
and like, there's like room to run around and they're just like up kind of by the house

317
00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:21,680
in the back patio, but it could have been anywhere.

318
00:13:21,680 --> 00:13:22,680
Yeah.

319
00:13:22,680 --> 00:13:23,680
13.

320
00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:26,680
The more I think about is this kind of old.

321
00:13:26,680 --> 00:13:27,680
She's old.

322
00:13:27,680 --> 00:13:32,960
Most 13 year olds, I imagine them saying something like now that I like think about a bunch of

323
00:13:32,960 --> 00:13:36,560
people that I know that are 13, like, yeah, it was an accident.

324
00:13:36,560 --> 00:13:37,560
Say something.

325
00:13:37,560 --> 00:13:41,800
She doesn't even sound sad about the fact that her brother is dead.

326
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:42,800
Right.

327
00:13:42,800 --> 00:13:44,800
Like, and that's the part that seems dark.

328
00:13:44,800 --> 00:13:45,800
The mom too.

329
00:13:45,800 --> 00:13:49,840
Well, the only thing that OP said was that she, she does as much as she can to forget

330
00:13:49,840 --> 00:13:50,840
about it.

331
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:55,600
She tries mentally to not think about it, which I'd imagine like never been there, but I

332
00:13:55,600 --> 00:14:01,360
would imagine you have to really make a conscientious effort to disassociate.

333
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:05,720
And like, that's why they say serial killers, killers, like they don't show emotion is for

334
00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:06,720
that reason.

335
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:07,720
Right.

336
00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:08,720
They just like push it all down.

337
00:14:08,720 --> 00:14:12,480
But the mom, I'm sure the mom was losing her frickin mind, but OP's not going to be

338
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:15,200
like, yeah, my mom's really sad that my brother died.

339
00:14:15,200 --> 00:14:16,600
Get an attorney.

340
00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:17,600
Tell them what happened.

341
00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:24,120
Tell them you're going to come clean and what's the best route to take and how can I keep

342
00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:27,120
myself safe as much as possible here?

343
00:14:27,120 --> 00:14:29,120
And then you go to the cops.

344
00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:32,320
I think she does need to be there for her kid.

345
00:14:32,320 --> 00:14:36,240
But I also do think she needs to be held accountable for what she did.

346
00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:37,240
Yeah, exactly.

347
00:14:37,240 --> 00:14:38,960
You got to have a consequence.

348
00:14:38,960 --> 00:14:41,880
Like that little girl could have been in juvie for a year for all we know.

349
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:45,400
And then her life, she continues on as a murderer.

350
00:14:45,400 --> 00:14:46,560
Well, that's true.

351
00:14:46,560 --> 00:14:50,320
I really don't know how they get tried as kids, but one last thought on this.

352
00:14:50,320 --> 00:14:51,320
Yes.

353
00:14:51,320 --> 00:14:52,600
She's also married.

354
00:14:52,600 --> 00:14:53,840
So could you imagine?

355
00:14:53,840 --> 00:14:54,840
No.

356
00:14:54,840 --> 00:14:55,840
Like no.

357
00:14:55,840 --> 00:14:56,840
That's the whole thing.

358
00:14:56,840 --> 00:15:00,320
So imagine like, oh, you kill her.

359
00:15:00,320 --> 00:15:04,360
And your stepdad has been in jail for 18 years.

360
00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:09,560
And he definitely like, I would know about the stepdad being in jail for something.

361
00:15:09,560 --> 00:15:10,560
Yeah, you would know that.

362
00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,600
And you know about the brother and you know the whole situation.

363
00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:15,520
And that was the truth.

364
00:15:15,520 --> 00:15:17,920
And then you find out that I did it.

365
00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:20,960
That she straight jabbed him and he.

366
00:15:20,960 --> 00:15:23,160
Oh, I would tell the cops.

367
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:24,160
I think I would have to know.

368
00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:28,160
But the point is that you were, you're finding out at this point, so your life is getting

369
00:15:28,160 --> 00:15:29,160
absolutely wrecked.

370
00:15:29,160 --> 00:15:30,160
Yeah.

371
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:34,800
It's like us being married for like 10 years, have one kid and then I find out that it was

372
00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:35,800
actually her.

373
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,280
And she's like, I'm going to the cops.

374
00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:39,240
She's like, I felt guilty about this forever.

375
00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,160
You're like, cool, cool, cool.

376
00:15:41,160 --> 00:15:44,040
That explains so much.

377
00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,440
Like shocker bralettes hang 10 in jail.

378
00:15:48,440 --> 00:15:56,200
So this is from Reddit and it says, my wife has been peeking at me from around corners

379
00:15:56,200 --> 00:15:57,720
and behind furniture.

380
00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:02,480
It's gone from weird to terrifying.

381
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:03,720
My wife Lynn.

382
00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:04,720
Okay.

383
00:16:04,720 --> 00:16:06,080
So he's calling her Lynn.

384
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:10,120
My wife, Lynn and I have been together for six years and married for 11 months.

385
00:16:10,120 --> 00:16:14,760
Our entire history together has been very normal and never once have I noticed any weird

386
00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,320
behaviors or red flags.

387
00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:19,440
I can't stress enough how out of character this whole thing is for her.

388
00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:21,840
Lynn is very kind, intelligent and thoughtful.

389
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:25,760
She's always been the no nonsense type of person being childish or trying to scare me

390
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:27,680
is not something she'd normally do.

391
00:16:27,680 --> 00:16:29,600
She doesn't even like watching horror movies.

392
00:16:29,600 --> 00:16:33,320
When we first started dating, she agreed to watch The Shining with me because she knew

393
00:16:33,320 --> 00:16:34,760
how much I loved horror.

394
00:16:34,760 --> 00:16:38,360
She was so scared that she didn't even make it through half the movie before we had to

395
00:16:38,360 --> 00:16:39,360
turn it off.

396
00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:42,440
It isn't into anything creepy and has never been into pranks.

397
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:45,080
It's just not her cup of tea and that's fine.

398
00:16:45,080 --> 00:16:47,240
But that was what's so strange about this.

399
00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,360
It's just so unlike her.

400
00:16:49,360 --> 00:16:54,480
I should also add that she has never had any mental health issues and as far as I'm aware,

401
00:16:54,480 --> 00:16:55,720
it doesn't run in her family.

402
00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,960
I know some people are able to hide their mental health problems, but in the six years

403
00:16:58,960 --> 00:17:03,320
we've been together, I think I'd have some sort of sign.

404
00:17:03,320 --> 00:17:06,520
Two months ago, I was in the kitchen making myself some copy before work.

405
00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:09,960
I was running a bit late that morning and knew I wouldn't be able to make it to Dunkin

406
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:12,480
Donuts for my usual morning fix.

407
00:17:12,480 --> 00:17:16,720
I took a sip of my coffee as I hurried down the hall towards the front door when I happened

408
00:17:16,720 --> 00:17:20,720
to notice Lynn peeking at me from around the corner ahead of me.

409
00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:26,560
I could only see her eyes and a strand of her long, dark hair hanging against the wall.

410
00:17:26,560 --> 00:17:29,840
The rest of her body was concealed behind the corner.

411
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:31,840
I nearly spilled my coffee when I saw her.

412
00:17:31,840 --> 00:17:33,800
I did burn the shit out of my lips.

413
00:17:33,800 --> 00:17:37,520
Jeez, Lynn, I said wiping a few drops of coffee from my pants.

414
00:17:37,520 --> 00:17:38,720
You scared the shit out of me.

415
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:41,920
She immediately popped out of view like a little kid that had been caught.

416
00:17:41,920 --> 00:17:45,960
I heard her scurry around towards the living room and by the time I got to the front door,

417
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:46,960
she was out of sight.

418
00:17:46,960 --> 00:17:51,320
It was really weird and just totally out of character for her, like I said, but also

419
00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:54,880
found it kind of funny that she was being more playful and a little less serious.

420
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:58,840
I shouted that I loved her and called her a weirdo as I shut the door behind me.

421
00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:00,080
I heard her laughing.

422
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,600
Her behavior was a bit odd, but it certainly wasn't something to call a priest over.

423
00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:08,040
I forgot about it by lunch and by the time I got home, she was her normal self.

424
00:18:08,040 --> 00:18:10,800
I didn't bring it up and neither did she and life went on.

425
00:18:10,800 --> 00:18:12,800
The next incident happened three days later.

426
00:18:12,800 --> 00:18:15,960
It was around 2 a.m. and I had woken up to get a drink.

427
00:18:15,960 --> 00:18:20,680
I was standing at the kitchen island jug of an OJ in hand when I felt a strong feeling

428
00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:22,720
that I was being watched.

429
00:18:22,720 --> 00:18:27,040
For whatever reason, I looked down at the floor and saw my wife's smiling face staring

430
00:18:27,040 --> 00:18:28,200
back.

431
00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:33,560
She was peeking at me from the other side of the island staring at me with wide, unblinking

432
00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,880
eyes and grinning.

433
00:18:35,880 --> 00:18:37,680
Grinning like the Cheshire cat.

434
00:18:37,680 --> 00:18:39,680
Absolutely not.

435
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,680
It gets crazy.

436
00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:46,960
I screamed all a minute, not out of irritation but fear.

437
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,400
For some reason at that moment, I was scared.

438
00:18:49,400 --> 00:18:54,000
At the sound of my scream, Lynn scuttled backwards out of my view, her hands and feet smacking

439
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:57,440
the tile floor as she hurried out of the kitchen on all floors.

440
00:18:57,440 --> 00:18:58,440
What?

441
00:18:58,440 --> 00:18:59,440
Shit.

442
00:18:59,440 --> 00:19:04,440
No thought.

443
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:05,440
Absolutely not.

444
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,240
This reminds me of the visit.

445
00:19:07,240 --> 00:19:08,240
I know.

446
00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:09,240
This is us.

447
00:19:09,240 --> 00:19:10,240
Yeah.

448
00:19:10,240 --> 00:19:11,240
She's got a little...

449
00:19:11,240 --> 00:19:12,240
Something's going on here.

450
00:19:12,240 --> 00:19:13,240
She's flipping.

451
00:19:13,240 --> 00:19:14,240
...double ganger.

452
00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,680
I didn't run after her or even yell after her.

453
00:19:16,680 --> 00:19:21,120
I just stood there frozen in shock wondering what the F had possessed her to do that.

454
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:25,240
It took me a little longer than I'd like to admit to go back upstairs but eventually

455
00:19:25,240 --> 00:19:26,240
I did.

456
00:19:26,240 --> 00:19:30,960
When I got to our bedroom, Lynn was lying on her side asleep.

457
00:19:30,960 --> 00:19:32,320
Or at least pretending to be.

458
00:19:32,320 --> 00:19:36,320
I stood there for a while watching her breathing to be really sure she was asleep.

459
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:40,240
I had the feeling she might jump out at me the moment I got into bed but she didn't.

460
00:19:40,240 --> 00:19:42,360
I climbed into bed and she didn't even move.

461
00:19:42,360 --> 00:19:45,200
Her breathing was soft and deep and I was starting to wonder if I'd dreamt the whole

462
00:19:45,200 --> 00:19:46,200
thing.

463
00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,480
The next morning I waited for her to come down for coffee and after handing her a mug

464
00:19:49,480 --> 00:19:51,960
and kissing her cheek, I decided to ask her about it.

465
00:19:51,960 --> 00:19:52,960
What was that about last night?

466
00:19:52,960 --> 00:19:56,120
I asked, keeping my tone lights so I didn't offend or embarrass her.

467
00:19:56,120 --> 00:20:00,360
She frowned over her cup of coffee shaking her head like she had no clue what I was referring

468
00:20:00,360 --> 00:20:02,360
to.

469
00:20:02,360 --> 00:20:04,200
You were peeking at me again.

470
00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,960
From over there I said pointing to the spot on the floor by the kitchen island.

471
00:20:07,960 --> 00:20:12,400
She followed my gaze and when she looked back at me, she burst out laughing.

472
00:20:12,400 --> 00:20:15,760
She laughed so hard that I couldn't help but join her.

473
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,960
You creep the F out of me sometimes.

474
00:20:17,960 --> 00:20:18,960
You know that?

475
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:19,960
I said.

476
00:20:19,960 --> 00:20:24,840
She giggled and set her cup on the counter and wrapped her arms around my neck.

477
00:20:24,840 --> 00:20:28,000
You creep me out all the time so I guess we're even.

478
00:20:28,000 --> 00:20:29,000
She teased.

479
00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:30,720
We said our goodbyes and left for work.

480
00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:34,400
As I drove, I kept thinking about how creepy I'd been seeing her grinning at me from behind

481
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:35,760
the island like that.

482
00:20:35,760 --> 00:20:39,040
The sounds her hands made on the floor as she crawled away.

483
00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,240
I told myself she was just trying to be silly.

484
00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:45,440
Just trying to join me in my love of all things horror.

485
00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,880
It's not like I was afraid of her but it still didn't sit right with me.

486
00:20:48,880 --> 00:20:51,840
I started seeing her peeking at me more and more.

487
00:20:51,840 --> 00:20:55,560
Sometimes she'd be peeking out from behind the couch or living room curtains.

488
00:20:55,560 --> 00:21:00,520
Once she even managed to get inside her grandmother's old trunk that sits at the foot of our bed.

489
00:21:00,520 --> 00:21:02,840
I might not have even known she was there at all.

490
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:06,240
Had the trunks, old hinges not given her away.

491
00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:10,560
She'd had the lid propped up just enough so only half of her face peeked through.

492
00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,160
She'd been grinning like an excited toddler.

493
00:21:13,160 --> 00:21:14,160
It was unnerving.

494
00:21:14,160 --> 00:21:15,720
I didn't even know what to say to her.

495
00:21:15,720 --> 00:21:17,160
All I could do was stare.

496
00:21:17,160 --> 00:21:20,920
When I finally found my voice, I asked her why on earth was she doing this?

497
00:21:20,920 --> 00:21:22,160
She didn't answer.

498
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:26,440
She had slowly closed the lid, shutting herself inside the trunk.

499
00:21:26,440 --> 00:21:29,600
I just walked away, feeling disturbed.

500
00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:31,600
I just sit on it.

501
00:21:31,600 --> 00:21:32,600
Like you're done.

502
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:33,600
You walk.

503
00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,920
I didn't understand why she was doing it but clearly it made her happy.

504
00:21:35,920 --> 00:21:38,680
I just hoped she would tire of the game quickly.

505
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,880
Lynn didn't peek at me for the next two weeks.

506
00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:43,560
I started to think she was done with her weird prank and I was relieved.

507
00:21:43,560 --> 00:21:46,840
We were watching a show on Netflix one night and I jokingly said that I hadn't seen her

508
00:21:46,840 --> 00:21:50,240
peeking at me lately and that she must have given up on her spy game.

509
00:21:50,240 --> 00:21:56,080
She looked up at me with a small smile and said, maybe I've just gotten better at it.

510
00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:59,440
I didn't say anything but I wondered whether or not she was joking.

511
00:21:59,440 --> 00:22:02,680
For the next few days I couldn't stop about what she had said.

512
00:22:02,680 --> 00:22:06,080
Was she still peeking at me when I wasn't looking and I just hadn't noticed?

513
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:08,640
And if so, what the hell was she getting out of this?

514
00:22:08,640 --> 00:22:12,240
I started to feel paranoid, constantly checking whether she was watching from around the corner

515
00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:13,240
or behind a door.

516
00:22:13,240 --> 00:22:15,960
I was jumpy whenever I was home and she wasn't in full view of me.

517
00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,720
I felt stupid and a little crazy.

518
00:22:17,720 --> 00:22:20,600
But after a few weeks without another incident I began to relax.

519
00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:24,400
I stopped checking behind furniture and walls and told myself it was just a bad memory.

520
00:22:24,400 --> 00:22:27,640
Then a few days ago things got so much worse.

521
00:22:27,640 --> 00:22:31,480
Lynn left to go to a friend and I lounged on the couch and played a couple games on

522
00:22:31,480 --> 00:22:32,480
my laptop.

523
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,720
Around 9pm I hopped in the shower and as I was washing the soap from my hair I felt

524
00:22:36,720 --> 00:22:39,840
that awful feeling that I was being watched.

525
00:22:39,840 --> 00:22:45,240
I slowly opened my eyes and almost had an effing heart attack.

526
00:22:45,240 --> 00:22:47,720
Lynn was peeking from behind the shower curtain.

527
00:22:47,720 --> 00:22:52,280
Her entire head stretched into the shower, leaving just her body outside.

528
00:22:52,280 --> 00:22:56,200
Her long dark hair hung against the curtain that ends dripping with water.

529
00:22:56,200 --> 00:23:01,800
Her mouth hung open in a terrible grin, eyes wide and red, as if she hadn't blinked in

530
00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:02,800
a while.

531
00:23:02,800 --> 00:23:03,800
No.

532
00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:04,800
Absolutely not.

533
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:06,800
As if she hasn't blinked in a while.

534
00:23:06,800 --> 00:23:08,800
She's just like, ugh.

535
00:23:08,800 --> 00:23:09,800
Yes!

536
00:23:09,800 --> 00:23:10,800
Finally!

537
00:23:10,800 --> 00:23:11,800
Look!

538
00:23:11,800 --> 00:23:12,800
Yeah.

539
00:23:12,800 --> 00:23:17,320
I feel like Guaddy's been watching his hair a long time.

540
00:23:17,320 --> 00:23:19,680
Gosh, I'm dripping over here.

541
00:23:19,680 --> 00:23:22,080
Open your eyes, open your eyes.

542
00:23:22,080 --> 00:23:23,080
Please look.

543
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:25,360
I screamed and jumped back against the wall.

544
00:23:25,360 --> 00:23:27,760
She didn't move nor did her smile waver.

545
00:23:27,760 --> 00:23:30,960
Her makeup ran down her cheeks and two black streaks.

546
00:23:30,960 --> 00:23:33,800
She looked giddy and completely deranged.

547
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:35,400
I was effing terrified.

548
00:23:35,400 --> 00:23:38,880
We stood like that for a few moments, neither of us saying a word.

549
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:44,080
Hey, after what felt like forever, she slowly pulled her head back out of the shower and

550
00:23:44,080 --> 00:23:48,920
I watched her blurry figure through the curtain as she moved backwards towards the bathroom

551
00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:49,920
door.

552
00:23:49,920 --> 00:23:53,320
A second later, the bathroom door slammed shut hard enough to battle the mirror.

553
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:56,360
I screamed again and jumped under the shower to lock the door.

554
00:23:56,360 --> 00:23:58,640
I stayed inside the bathroom for over an hour.

555
00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:02,080
Maybe I overreacted to some of you, but joke or not, I wasn't going to put up with that

556
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:03,920
crazy shit anymore.

557
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:07,160
That's what I kept telling myself as I paced in my bathroom, stopping to listen at the

558
00:24:07,160 --> 00:24:08,840
door every few minutes.

559
00:24:08,840 --> 00:24:12,360
Suddenly I heard a muffled sound and I pressed my ear against the bathroom door straining

560
00:24:12,360 --> 00:24:13,360
to listen.

561
00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:16,480
I couldn't hear anything, but I envisioned Lynn standing on the other side of the door

562
00:24:16,480 --> 00:24:17,800
googling at her joke.

563
00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,200
I felt a surge of anger.

564
00:24:19,200 --> 00:24:23,960
I was being on pissed, being made to feel scared in my own house, and made to hide in the bathroom

565
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:24,960
for an hour.

566
00:24:24,960 --> 00:24:25,960
All for what?

567
00:24:25,960 --> 00:24:26,960
Some joke?

568
00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,600
If it was a joke, it was an awful one.

569
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:29,600
What the eff Lynn!

570
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:30,600
I snapped.

571
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,000
This shit is getting really effing annoying.

572
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:37,960
I waited for her to apologize or to call me a jerk, but instead I heard a faint moan.

573
00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:40,640
So quiet, I wondered if I heard it at all.

574
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,800
And then complete silence.

575
00:24:42,800 --> 00:24:44,880
Lynn, I called out.

576
00:24:44,880 --> 00:24:47,120
Not able to even hide the shakiness in my voice.

577
00:24:47,120 --> 00:24:48,120
I got no response.

578
00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:49,640
Just my own heavy breathing.

579
00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,200
I swear, just effing stop it!

580
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,480
I yelled, pounding my fist on the door.

581
00:24:54,480 --> 00:24:56,400
I waited for her to cuss me out.

582
00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:59,240
Something I wouldn't expect from her talking to her like that.

583
00:24:59,240 --> 00:25:02,240
I never have screamed at her before, but there was nothing.

584
00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,640
Just the occasional drip from the shower head.

585
00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:09,120
I won't deny that I was scared, too afraid to open the damn door and face my own wife.

586
00:25:09,120 --> 00:25:12,960
I waited another 30 minutes or so, which feels like a lifetime when you're scared.

587
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:16,440
Finally, I decided I wasn't going to spend the night hiding in my bathroom, so I got

588
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:21,000
down on my knees and peered underneath the door.

589
00:25:21,000 --> 00:25:25,440
I almost expected to see her face peeking at me, but thankfully I didn't.

590
00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,440
I could see straight down the hallway to the top of the stairs, but no limb.

591
00:25:28,440 --> 00:25:30,200
I didn't know if I should be happy about that or not.

592
00:25:30,200 --> 00:25:33,520
I looked for a few minutes, waiting to see her head pop up over the top step, but it

593
00:25:33,520 --> 00:25:34,520
never came.

594
00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:38,200
I showed up, my hand hovering over the door and mentally preparing myself to open it.

595
00:25:38,200 --> 00:25:41,760
I slowly turned the lock with shaky fingers and was about to yank it open when I heard

596
00:25:41,760 --> 00:25:45,160
a sound that still makes me feel nauseous when I think about it.

597
00:25:45,160 --> 00:25:49,320
A moan, louder than before, but this time I was able to tell just where it was coming

598
00:25:49,320 --> 00:25:50,320
from.

599
00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:54,200
I turned my head to the closet door as if in slow motion and locked eyes with my wife

600
00:25:54,200 --> 00:25:57,040
who was peeking at me from the slight gap.

601
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:00,640
Her eyes were still wide as ever and her mouth was hanging open in the most grotesque leaping

602
00:26:00,640 --> 00:26:01,920
smile I've ever seen.

603
00:26:01,920 --> 00:26:02,920
I didn't even scream.

604
00:26:02,920 --> 00:26:06,680
I was too scared for even that her hands were clasped to her chest.

605
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:10,360
Body trembling was sheer delight as if she could barely contain her excitement.

606
00:26:10,360 --> 00:26:15,920
A short raspy moan bubbled up from her throat deep in raw, sending a shiver through my entire

607
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:16,920
body.

608
00:26:16,920 --> 00:26:21,080
Somehow I found the ability to pull the bathroom door open as I ran, as fast as I could all

609
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:24,280
the way down the steps, snagging my keys and phone from the table in the living room

610
00:26:24,280 --> 00:26:25,880
before running outside of my car.

611
00:26:25,880 --> 00:26:29,760
I could hear her shrill laughter behind me, but I didn't hear her getting closer.

612
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:31,400
I didn't bother shutting the front door.

613
00:26:31,400 --> 00:26:33,960
I drove away from the house faster than I legally should have.

614
00:26:33,960 --> 00:26:37,520
She'd bring the entire time either from fear or the cold, maybe a little bit of both.

615
00:26:37,520 --> 00:26:39,720
I hadn't grabbed a coat or even a pair of shoes.

616
00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:42,400
I was still in my boxers and my hair was still damp.

617
00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:46,720
I drove straight to my brother Chris's house about 40 minutes away, ignoring any and every

618
00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:47,720
call and text I got.

619
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:51,040
I didn't check my phone until I was safely parked in my brother's driveway.

620
00:26:51,040 --> 00:26:55,840
Lynn had called four times and set a flurry of texts, all wondering where I'd gone and

621
00:26:55,840 --> 00:26:57,640
why I left like that.

622
00:26:57,640 --> 00:27:01,880
I threw my phone at the dash in a rage, furious at her nonchalant attitude.

623
00:27:01,880 --> 00:27:06,160
My brother and his wife were surprised to see me, especially dressed in just a pair of boxers,

624
00:27:06,160 --> 00:27:07,920
but told me to stay as long as I needed.

625
00:27:07,920 --> 00:27:10,680
Chris let me some clothes and asked me what happened.

626
00:27:10,680 --> 00:27:14,120
I told him Lynn and I had a fight, but didn't get into the details.

627
00:27:14,120 --> 00:27:18,120
I didn't want him to think I was overreacting, leaving my wife over a prank, even if it was

628
00:27:18,120 --> 00:27:19,120
a strange one.

629
00:27:19,120 --> 00:27:22,920
I mean, how did I encourage her for years to lighten up instead of being so serious all

630
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:23,920
the time?

631
00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:28,000
I wanted to relax and loosen up, but this was definitely not what I had in mind.

632
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,240
The mere thought of going back home gave me anxiety.

633
00:27:30,240 --> 00:27:32,360
I tossed and turned unable to sleep.

634
00:27:32,360 --> 00:27:35,600
Chris ended up giving me a sleeping pill, so I was able to get a little rest.

635
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:39,560
My sleep was filled with terrible dreams, all of Lynn's smiling face.

636
00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:41,520
I woke up just as the sun started to rise.

637
00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,520
My sore body ached from the sofa and I felt drained.

638
00:27:44,520 --> 00:27:47,960
I knew I'd have to call Lynn at some point, but I didn't know what to say to her.

639
00:27:47,960 --> 00:27:50,600
I wouldn't be going home unless she gave me her word.

640
00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:52,360
She'd never do any more creepy shit.

641
00:27:52,360 --> 00:27:56,720
I just wanted my wife back, her normal, serious self, and never looked so good to me.

642
00:27:56,720 --> 00:27:59,080
I was contemplating calling her and telling her that.

643
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:02,520
When that familiar feeling came over me, I was being watched.

644
00:28:02,520 --> 00:28:04,560
I was staring at the ceiling, my heart and my throat.

645
00:28:04,560 --> 00:28:08,160
I didn't want to look away, but the longer I ignored the feeling, the worse it got.

646
00:28:08,160 --> 00:28:11,640
My eyes drifted away from the ceiling, almost on their own.

647
00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:16,000
Her face was pressed up against the window beside the couch, staring down at me with

648
00:28:16,000 --> 00:28:18,760
that same gaping smile.

649
00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:25,280
Drill dribbled down her lips, leaving two long streaks down the glass.

650
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,480
I didn't know how long she'd been there, but something told me she'd been there quite

651
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:30,200
a while, possibly all night.

652
00:28:30,200 --> 00:28:32,400
I didn't bother screaming, though I was afraid.

653
00:28:32,400 --> 00:28:34,520
Anger trumped any fear I felt at that moment.

654
00:28:34,520 --> 00:28:38,400
I jumped up from the couch and pounded my palm against the glass.

655
00:28:38,400 --> 00:28:40,840
Lynn, are you crazy?

656
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:42,640
What the hell is wrong with you?

657
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:43,640
Just go home!

658
00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:45,440
I shouted, no!

659
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:46,440
She didn't move.

660
00:28:46,440 --> 00:28:51,080
Her ghastly expression never changed, if anything, her smile only grew as if she had never been

661
00:28:51,080 --> 00:28:52,080
more elated.

662
00:28:52,080 --> 00:28:55,720
I could hear Chris and his wife moving around upstairs as if Lynn could hear them from her

663
00:28:55,720 --> 00:28:56,720
place outside.

664
00:28:56,720 --> 00:29:00,920
Her head twitched slightly in their direction and she began to close her mouth slowly.

665
00:29:00,920 --> 00:29:03,640
Chris called my name from upstairs, obviously concerned.

666
00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:06,360
I turned to see him and his wife Rebecca hurring down the steps.

667
00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:09,040
When I turned back to the window, Lynn was gone.

668
00:29:09,040 --> 00:29:12,720
The only sign she'd been there at all was the two streaks of Drill still dripping down

669
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:13,720
the glass.

670
00:29:13,720 --> 00:29:16,920
I tried explaining to Chris and Rebecca about waking up to see Lynn watching me through

671
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:17,920
the window.

672
00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:18,920
They were skeptical.

673
00:29:18,920 --> 00:29:19,920
Who wouldn't be?

674
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:23,200
Chris and I went outside to the spot in front of the window, but there were no footprints

675
00:29:23,200 --> 00:29:25,280
in the dirt, just a slight indent.

676
00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,720
Animal probably Chris Guest and I didn't argue.

677
00:29:27,720 --> 00:29:31,120
He and Rebecca assumed I'd dreamt the entire episode, but they didn't understand and I

678
00:29:31,120 --> 00:29:32,880
was too tired to explain it to them.

679
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,160
I called out of work that day and I turned my cell phone off.

680
00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:36,400
I didn't want to face Lynn.

681
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:38,320
Just talking to her was too much for me at that point.

682
00:29:38,320 --> 00:29:41,800
I really started to believe something was irreversibly wrong with her.

683
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,200
And no matter what promises she'd made, we'd never be the same again.

684
00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:46,800
The thought saddened me to my core.

685
00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:47,800
I cried most of the morning.

686
00:29:47,800 --> 00:29:51,640
By noon I figured I was ready to confront her, give her one last chance to explain herself.

687
00:29:51,640 --> 00:29:53,960
I could at least give her that six years I told myself.

688
00:29:53,960 --> 00:29:58,280
I turned my phone on and saw the dozens of tech sheets set all from a seemingly concerned

689
00:29:58,280 --> 00:29:59,280
wife.

690
00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:00,280
Can we talk?

691
00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:01,280
I love you.

692
00:30:01,280 --> 00:30:02,280
Please call me.

693
00:30:02,280 --> 00:30:03,280
I'm really worried.

694
00:30:03,280 --> 00:30:04,600
Can you answer me?

695
00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:05,680
Just come home.

696
00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:06,840
And more of the same.

697
00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:08,800
All techs telling me she loved me and she wanted me home.

698
00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:09,800
How worried she was.

699
00:30:09,800 --> 00:30:11,760
Not a damn one addressing the crazy shit.

700
00:30:11,760 --> 00:30:14,960
She pulled like she hadn't been acting like a character from Stephen King book.

701
00:30:14,960 --> 00:30:16,280
Even her techs were different.

702
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,240
She normally texts novels just to tell me to pick up a loaf of bread.

703
00:30:19,240 --> 00:30:22,680
You'd think she'd have more to save to me after her bizarre shenanigans.

704
00:30:22,680 --> 00:30:26,360
I know it probably seems childish to some of you who are miles away from this situation

705
00:30:26,360 --> 00:30:30,080
but if you saw the way Lynn had looked at me, how she'd skip right away on all fours

706
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,320
like some wild animal.

707
00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,960
Greeting at me from inside the closet like a lunatic then I think you'd find my reaction

708
00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:35,960
was warranted.

709
00:30:35,960 --> 00:30:38,000
I ended up staying with Chris and Rebecca for another night.

710
00:30:38,000 --> 00:30:41,040
I didn't wake up yesterday until afternoon and thankfully I didn't see Lynn's face

711
00:30:41,040 --> 00:30:42,280
watching me through the window.

712
00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:46,480
I don't want to pry because it's not my place but is this fight something that can be amended?

713
00:30:46,480 --> 00:30:47,480
Rebecca asked.

714
00:30:47,480 --> 00:30:50,480
She made us both a sandwich for lunch and I knew she wanted to breach the subject without

715
00:30:50,480 --> 00:30:52,320
seeming too nosy.

716
00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:55,520
I don't know, I just, she's like a different person.

717
00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:57,640
I said choosing my words carefully.

718
00:30:57,640 --> 00:31:01,280
I still wasn't ready for her or Chris to know the full extent of the bat shit craziness

719
00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:02,960
I had been dealing with.

720
00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:05,600
People change Ben but she's still the same woman you married.

721
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,240
Maybe you both just need to talk through your issues, whatever's going on.

722
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:09,600
I'm sure it can be fixed.

723
00:31:09,600 --> 00:31:13,640
I think it's beyond that now, I don't think talking would help, I just don't trust her.

724
00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:17,720
I said the words stung in my heart, I missed and loved my wife but how could I live with

725
00:31:17,720 --> 00:31:20,480
someone like that living in constant fear?

726
00:31:20,480 --> 00:31:22,960
Living in constant fear didn't sound too appealing.

727
00:31:22,960 --> 00:31:26,520
Lynn loves you, she has to be absolutely crushed she said.

728
00:31:26,520 --> 00:31:28,520
I don't know about that I said.

729
00:31:28,520 --> 00:31:31,960
Well she certainly seemed to me, I've never seen her so upset.

730
00:31:31,960 --> 00:31:35,760
Very much unlike the Lynn I know Rebecca said shaking her hands sadly.

731
00:31:35,760 --> 00:31:39,560
It took a full minute for her words to really sink in and when they did I felt dread warm

732
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:41,120
coming its way through my skin.

733
00:31:41,120 --> 00:31:42,600
Wait, what do you mean?

734
00:31:42,600 --> 00:31:43,600
You saw her?

735
00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:44,600
You saw Lynn?

736
00:31:44,600 --> 00:31:45,600
I asked.

737
00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:46,600
My mouth suddenly dried.

738
00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,440
Rebecca nodded casually as if that fact wasn't nightmare fuel.

739
00:31:50,440 --> 00:31:52,000
Maybe for her it wasn't.

740
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,280
She sat by this morning just after Chris left for work.

741
00:31:54,280 --> 00:31:56,000
She said cleaning the plates from the table.

742
00:31:56,000 --> 00:31:59,200
I didn't see her car though, maybe she took an Uber or something.

743
00:31:59,200 --> 00:32:00,280
Beck, what did she say?

744
00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:01,480
Did she come inside?

745
00:32:01,480 --> 00:32:04,080
I asked what, starting to break out on my forehead.

746
00:32:04,080 --> 00:32:08,920
I began looking around examining corners as though a predator lurked behind them.

747
00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:12,000
No, she just asked if you were awake yet and I said that you weren't.

748
00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:15,800
I asked if she wanted me to wake you but she said no, just to let you sleep.

749
00:32:15,800 --> 00:32:17,800
She said as she washed the dishes.

750
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:18,800
That's all?

751
00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:19,800
She didn't say anything else I asked?

752
00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,240
No, she looked awful though like she hadn't slept in days.

753
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:23,320
I think you should call her.

754
00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:25,440
I got up from the table and thanked Rebecca for lunch.

755
00:32:25,440 --> 00:32:29,200
I felt a little bit better at the knowledge that at least she hadn't come inside.

756
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:31,240
Still I needed double check that the doors were locked.

757
00:32:31,240 --> 00:32:33,440
I sat for a while trying to figure out what to do next.

758
00:32:33,440 --> 00:32:36,840
I didn't want to go home but I thought that I owed it to Lynn to help her if I could.

759
00:32:36,840 --> 00:32:40,160
How did I sworn an oath to love and honor her through sickness and in health?

760
00:32:40,160 --> 00:32:41,480
Clearly she was very sick.

761
00:32:41,480 --> 00:32:44,840
If she was sick, which I truly believe she was, I had to try and get her the help she

762
00:32:44,840 --> 00:32:46,680
needed but I didn't even know where to start.

763
00:32:46,680 --> 00:32:49,720
I didn't want to call the police besides what the hell was going to tell them.

764
00:32:49,720 --> 00:32:51,120
That my wife was peeking at me?

765
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:52,240
That she was being creepy?

766
00:32:52,240 --> 00:32:56,320
As bizarre as she'd been, she still hadn't committed any crime, not yet anyway.

767
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,720
The police would have probably said I was overreacting.

768
00:32:58,720 --> 00:33:03,400
I knew as her husband I was well within my rights to have her committed but what if she

769
00:33:03,400 --> 00:33:05,480
simply acted normal in their presence?

770
00:33:05,480 --> 00:33:10,000
She's obviously been able to fool Rebecca into thinking she was just a concerned wife.

771
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,160
As long as the doctors didn't find her a danger to herself or others, they'd have no choice

772
00:33:13,160 --> 00:33:14,880
but to release her after 72 hours.

773
00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:16,320
I felt lost and overwhelmed.

774
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:18,840
So I did what any husband in my position would do.

775
00:33:18,840 --> 00:33:20,280
I called her mother.

776
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,000
I didn't want to, believe me.

777
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:24,280
Her mother, Marianne, and I were never on the best terms.

778
00:33:24,280 --> 00:33:25,880
We never fought or anything like that.

779
00:33:25,880 --> 00:33:27,400
She just wasn't a very warm person.

780
00:33:27,400 --> 00:33:29,240
It wasn't really easy to get along with.

781
00:33:29,240 --> 00:33:30,800
She hardly ever smiled when she did.

782
00:33:30,800 --> 00:33:35,000
Only her lips would move into a thin lip smile, leaving her eyes as blank as before.

783
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,120
I'd only met her twice and both times were for such short visits.

784
00:33:38,120 --> 00:33:40,720
I got the impression she didn't approve of me for her daughter.

785
00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:44,400
Lynn always ushered us out quickly as if she didn't want me to feel uncomfortable, which

786
00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:45,400
I was grateful for.

787
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:48,080
Being in her mother's company felt almost unbearable.

788
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,000
I was happy to avoid the woman but I needed her help.

789
00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:53,800
I really didn't want to talk to her at all but I had to talk to someone and someone who

790
00:33:53,800 --> 00:33:57,040
knew Lynn better than I do so I grit my teeth and did what I had to do.

791
00:33:57,040 --> 00:33:59,720
Yes, she answered, already sounding irritated.

792
00:33:59,720 --> 00:34:00,720
Marianne, it's me, Ben.

793
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:01,720
Do you have a minute to talk?

794
00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:05,040
I asked, I could hear her cluck her tongue in irritation.

795
00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,360
I'm in the middle of writing some checks but if you insist, I suppose I can spare a

796
00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:09,360
moment.

797
00:34:09,360 --> 00:34:10,360
What is it that you want to discuss, Benjamin?

798
00:34:10,360 --> 00:34:11,800
She said, it's about Lynn.

799
00:34:11,800 --> 00:34:15,800
She's been acting strangely and I was wondering if you had any idea whether there was something

800
00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:17,240
I was quickly interrupted.

801
00:34:17,240 --> 00:34:19,840
It's a bit difficult to follow your rambling, Benjamin.

802
00:34:19,840 --> 00:34:20,920
What is it that you want from me?

803
00:34:20,920 --> 00:34:24,680
She asked, I could almost see her standing there in her thin sweater and slacks tapping

804
00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:26,640
her fingernails impatiently on the table.

805
00:34:26,640 --> 00:34:30,360
I wanted to know if you'd ever notice any odd behavior or possibly any mental health

806
00:34:30,360 --> 00:34:31,360
issues.

807
00:34:31,360 --> 00:34:35,040
There was a long and comfortable pause that I couldn't tell was because she was just thinking

808
00:34:35,040 --> 00:34:36,040
or something else.

809
00:34:36,040 --> 00:34:37,440
Finally, after a few seconds she spoke.

810
00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:41,360
I'm not sure if this is one of your jokes, Benjamin, but if so, I don't find the humor

811
00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:42,360
in it.

812
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:46,080
Now, I do have business to attend to as I've said, so if you don't mind, she said, but

813
00:34:46,080 --> 00:34:48,160
I cut her off before she could get rid of me.

814
00:34:48,160 --> 00:34:49,440
Marianne, it's not a joke.

815
00:34:49,440 --> 00:34:52,040
I'm sincerely concerned about Lynn's mental health.

816
00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:53,920
Her behavior has been very erratic lately.

817
00:34:53,920 --> 00:34:57,400
I'm worried about her and I figured as her mother you would be as well.

818
00:34:57,400 --> 00:35:00,020
I said my frustration, evident in my voice.

819
00:35:00,020 --> 00:35:03,520
If you're truly concerned, then I suggest you get the health professionals involved.

820
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:05,880
I don't know what you expect of me, she snapped.

821
00:35:05,880 --> 00:35:09,840
I could tell she was seconds away from hanging up and for some reason I was desperate not

822
00:35:09,840 --> 00:35:10,840
to let her.

823
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,920
Please, if not for me, do it for Lynn.

824
00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:13,920
I tried.

825
00:35:13,920 --> 00:35:15,360
Benjamin, do not call here again.

826
00:35:15,360 --> 00:35:16,360
Goodbye.

827
00:35:16,360 --> 00:35:17,840
I tried to call out to her, but she hung up.

828
00:35:17,840 --> 00:35:21,120
I tried to rent my hand around the call and her refusal to help me.

829
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,440
Even if she didn't like me, why wouldn't she want to help her own daughter?

830
00:35:23,440 --> 00:35:24,440
I couldn't understand that.

831
00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:27,600
I tried to replay the conversation desperate to find something I missed.

832
00:35:27,600 --> 00:35:31,880
For a while, Oma gave up and time-earned her lost words to me, seek professional help.

833
00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:34,040
She had said those words with a bit of urgency.

834
00:35:34,040 --> 00:35:36,680
I could have just been grasping at straws, but no.

835
00:35:36,680 --> 00:35:41,320
I was sure her voice had changed ever so slightly when she said that as if they were very important.

836
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,800
Well, as she meant, I assumed she'd been referring to medical professionals, but maybe

837
00:35:44,800 --> 00:35:48,840
she was referring to someone else, someone that she didn't, for some reason, feel comfortable

838
00:35:48,840 --> 00:35:50,960
saying directly or maybe I was just desperate.

839
00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:54,440
I was waiting for Chris to get home and after a very long and exhausting conversation with

840
00:35:54,440 --> 00:35:58,160
him and Rebecca, I convinced them that Lynn truly needed psychiatric help.

841
00:35:58,160 --> 00:35:59,280
I didn't tell them everything.

842
00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:02,960
I wasn't prepared to go into it yet, but I told them about our last encounter, how

843
00:36:02,960 --> 00:36:05,600
she hid in the bathroom peeking at me from the closet.

844
00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:08,040
They were obviously shocked, but thankfully they believed me.

845
00:36:08,040 --> 00:36:09,640
They too just wanted to help her.

846
00:36:09,640 --> 00:36:11,880
Still, they didn't think it was all that serious.

847
00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:12,880
Weird.

848
00:36:12,880 --> 00:36:14,160
Maybe, but not dangerous.

849
00:36:14,160 --> 00:36:17,200
They just kept saying that Lynn had to be playing some kind of weird joke.

850
00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:20,480
Maybe for YouTube, Rebecca offered if only half-heartedly.

851
00:36:20,480 --> 00:36:22,320
Chris didn't think we should involve the police just yet.

852
00:36:22,320 --> 00:36:25,440
He offered instead to go with me and I readily accepted.

853
00:36:25,440 --> 00:36:29,920
He reasoned that calmly talking or trying to coax her into going willingly was the best

854
00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:30,920
recourse.

855
00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:32,600
I agreed to do it his way.

856
00:36:32,600 --> 00:36:34,600
At least I wouldn't be going into that house alone.

857
00:36:34,600 --> 00:36:36,560
We drove over this morning just after breakfast.

858
00:36:36,560 --> 00:36:38,200
There was no way I was going at night.

859
00:36:38,200 --> 00:36:40,880
When we pulled into the driveway, my stomach began doing somersaults.

860
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:44,360
Her car wasn't there, but I still didn't let my guard down.

861
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:49,000
The front door was ajar and for a split second, I thought we'd see her eyes staring through

862
00:36:49,000 --> 00:36:50,000
the gap.

863
00:36:50,000 --> 00:36:51,000
I was shaking and starting to sweat.

864
00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:52,200
Chris, however, was fine.

865
00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:55,840
He waited for me to open the door, his hands and his pockets like he was going on an effin

866
00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:57,080
stroll through the park.

867
00:36:57,080 --> 00:36:59,120
I envied his ignorance.

868
00:36:59,120 --> 00:37:02,560
I pushed the door open and was immediately hit with a stench of rot.

869
00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:07,000
Chris smelled it too and he walked up in the house behind me with his nose scrunched up.

870
00:37:07,000 --> 00:37:09,400
What do you guys use to clean the floors around here?

871
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:10,400
Shit!

872
00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:11,400
Chris mumbled.

873
00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:12,400
Shut up.

874
00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:14,760
I said, my eyes darting around for any signs of Lynn.

875
00:37:14,760 --> 00:37:17,680
The house was deadly quiet and dark despite being 10 in the morning.

876
00:37:17,680 --> 00:37:21,440
All the curtains were closed up tight, refusing to allow any sunlight inside.

877
00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:26,000
If I hadn't left it just two days prior, I'd have thought the house to be abandoned.

878
00:37:26,000 --> 00:37:29,360
We moved through each room, carefully checking any place that she might hide, occasionally

879
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:30,360
calling her name.

880
00:37:30,360 --> 00:37:32,960
Why the eff are you looking under the couch, Chris asked eventually?

881
00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:34,560
Aren't we looking for your wife?

882
00:37:34,560 --> 00:37:36,200
He was looking at me like I was a moron.

883
00:37:36,200 --> 00:37:37,640
Let's just go upstairs, I whispered.

884
00:37:37,640 --> 00:37:41,000
He shook his head but followed me up the stairs to check the bathroom and spare bedroom.

885
00:37:41,000 --> 00:37:45,840
On my way up, my shoes crunched over pieces of glass that looked to be littered over a

886
00:37:45,840 --> 00:37:47,680
few of the steps.

887
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:50,840
I noticed that one of Lynn and my wedding portraits that hung on the wall along the

888
00:37:50,840 --> 00:37:52,280
staircase had been smashed.

889
00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,440
The frame hung crookedly, all the glass removed.

890
00:37:54,440 --> 00:37:56,440
I stared at the picture, a lump forming in my throat.

891
00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:59,800
We had taken the photo just after leaving the church after seeing our vows.

892
00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,680
She looked so beautiful in her white gown.

893
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,120
I looked at Lynn's beautiful face.

894
00:38:03,120 --> 00:38:06,240
I never dreamed her face would ever be a source of terror for me.

895
00:38:06,240 --> 00:38:09,120
We climbed the rest of the steps and checked the spare bedroom but it looked completely

896
00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:10,120
untouched.

897
00:38:10,120 --> 00:38:11,920
I was hesitant to go to the bathroom.

898
00:38:11,920 --> 00:38:14,240
My fear from that night coming back at me all at once.

899
00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:17,720
Chris noticed and I offered to go in by myself but I couldn't let him do that so we walked

900
00:38:17,720 --> 00:38:18,720
in together.

901
00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:21,280
I looked in the closet in the shower, the bathroom looked as if it hadn't been touched

902
00:38:21,280 --> 00:38:22,280
since the night I left.

903
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:23,720
I don't think she's here, Ben.

904
00:38:23,720 --> 00:38:26,920
Why don't you pack some clothes and we'll try coming back tomorrow or something, Chris

905
00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:27,920
said.

906
00:38:27,920 --> 00:38:31,080
I nodded and went into our bedroom and shoved some clothes into a duffel bag.

907
00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:35,280
When I checked inside our closet, I came across the source of the smell and gagged.

908
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:38,160
Chris took one look and lost all color in his face.

909
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:41,800
He had to go stand by the stairs to get away from the site and the smell.

910
00:38:41,800 --> 00:38:46,480
I gazed down in shock at what lay inside my bedroom closet, soaking into the rug where

911
00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:50,840
at least a dozen eyeballs all carefully laid out in pairs.

912
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,400
Some were as large as a quarter while others were as tiny as a marble.

913
00:38:54,400 --> 00:38:59,400
I stared down at the eyes she'd collected from small animals and why wondered how she

914
00:38:59,400 --> 00:39:02,320
got in them and shattered at the thought.

915
00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:08,440
Man, I thought I had it bad with Becca's shoe addiction but eff me.

916
00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:10,320
Your wife's in here collecting eyeballs?

917
00:39:10,320 --> 00:39:11,320
Chris said gagging.

918
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:12,720
Ben, I think we should go.

919
00:39:12,720 --> 00:39:13,720
He called from the hole.

920
00:39:13,720 --> 00:39:14,720
I'm getting nauseous.

921
00:39:14,720 --> 00:39:15,720
All right.

922
00:39:15,720 --> 00:39:18,720
I grabbed my duffel and shut the closet door on my new nightmare.

923
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:21,960
I stepped out into the hall and took a deep breath of air.

924
00:39:21,960 --> 00:39:25,080
I could taste the raw on my tongue and I couldn't help but gag.

925
00:39:25,080 --> 00:39:28,600
Who the eff lines up eyeballs in their closet like that?

926
00:39:28,600 --> 00:39:29,600
Chris mumbled.

927
00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:30,960
I tried to tell you she needed help.

928
00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:33,360
I said, she doesn't need help Ben.

929
00:39:33,360 --> 00:39:34,960
She needs an effing exorcist.

930
00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:36,080
He said, you coming or what?

931
00:39:36,080 --> 00:39:37,240
I can't smell the smell.

932
00:39:37,240 --> 00:39:38,240
Any.

933
00:39:38,240 --> 00:39:41,360
His words died in his throat and his eyes grew wide with fear.

934
00:39:41,360 --> 00:39:43,920
I didn't ask him why I could feel it.

935
00:39:43,920 --> 00:39:46,520
Someone was watching me and I didn't think it was the eyes in the closet.

936
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:47,520
I turned around.

937
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:49,600
My eyes slowly scanning the bedroom.

938
00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:50,600
Shit.

939
00:39:50,600 --> 00:39:54,520
I whispered as I finally saw what we'd missed.

940
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:59,200
Under the bed, curled on her side watching us with the excitement of a kid on Christmas

941
00:39:59,200 --> 00:40:00,200
morning.

942
00:40:00,200 --> 00:40:01,600
It was my wife.

943
00:40:01,600 --> 00:40:06,880
She held her hands together just under her chin and they were shaking eagerly.

944
00:40:06,880 --> 00:40:11,280
Now that she knew she'd been found, I could hear the quiet noses she was making.

945
00:40:11,280 --> 00:40:16,240
A sort of hiccuping sound in her throat as if the excitement was just too much for her.

946
00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:21,360
It was a nerving to say the least, wide eyes and that same huge smile.

947
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:23,360
Everything in me told me to run but I forced it away.

948
00:40:23,360 --> 00:40:24,360
This is my wife.

949
00:40:24,360 --> 00:40:28,080
No matter how twisted she was still the woman I married, I had to help her.

950
00:40:28,080 --> 00:40:30,000
Lynn, I said softly.

951
00:40:30,000 --> 00:40:34,680
She didn't respond but her head bobbed back and forth in two quick little movements as

952
00:40:34,680 --> 00:40:36,400
if she were nodding.

953
00:40:36,400 --> 00:40:38,960
Baby, I just want to help.

954
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:39,960
Okay.

955
00:40:39,960 --> 00:40:41,440
Can you let me do that?

956
00:40:41,440 --> 00:40:42,440
I asked.

957
00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:46,440
I had taken a single step forward approaching her like some kind of dangerous animal.

958
00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:47,440
I love you Lynn.

959
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:50,360
I said softly taking another step closer.

960
00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:56,680
She let a tiny moan escape her wide open mouth and I had to resist the urge to run.

961
00:40:56,680 --> 00:41:01,040
Her shoulders were starting to quiver and her eyes grew as large as saucers.

962
00:41:01,040 --> 00:41:04,080
I crouched down so I could see her better and immediately saw the blood.

963
00:41:04,080 --> 00:41:05,400
Her hands were covered in it.

964
00:41:05,400 --> 00:41:10,680
They trembled the more the closer I got as if she was barely able to contain herself.

965
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:12,240
Lynn, are you hurt?

966
00:41:12,240 --> 00:41:13,240
You're bleeding.

967
00:41:13,240 --> 00:41:15,280
I said she bobbed her head again.

968
00:41:15,280 --> 00:41:19,680
Her bloody fingers moving up and down as if playing an invisible piano.

969
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:23,880
They occasionally grazed her chin leaving smears of blood on her skin.

970
00:41:23,880 --> 00:41:26,800
I wanted to recoil and dust disgust.

971
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:28,920
The smell that was coming off of her was revolting.

972
00:41:28,920 --> 00:41:31,520
I could feel the vomit trying to climb up my throat.

973
00:41:31,520 --> 00:41:35,240
Her lips were dry and stretched then blood sleeping between the crocs.

974
00:41:35,240 --> 00:41:38,400
I knew she wouldn't come out on her own but I didn't want to leave her in the state she

975
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:39,400
was in.

976
00:41:39,400 --> 00:41:40,840
I scooted closer and reached out to her.

977
00:41:40,840 --> 00:41:45,680
The excited hiccuping sounds got louder and her hands shook fingers flexing.

978
00:41:45,680 --> 00:41:49,160
It was then that I could see the blood oozing from in between the fingers.

979
00:41:49,160 --> 00:41:51,000
Oh my gosh Lynn, you're bleeding.

980
00:41:51,000 --> 00:41:54,520
I said instinctively I reached out to take her hand but before I could even touch her

981
00:41:54,520 --> 00:41:59,440
hand, spraying out towards me a sharp pain shot through my arm and I fell back on my

982
00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:00,440
ass.

983
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:04,040
My arm burned and I could see the blood dripping down onto the carpet.

984
00:42:04,040 --> 00:42:08,720
I looked back at her in shock and saw her grinning madly, her fingers clutching a large

985
00:42:08,720 --> 00:42:10,440
shard of glass.

986
00:42:10,440 --> 00:42:12,960
You alright in there Chris-ass from behind me?

987
00:42:12,960 --> 00:42:16,760
I turned my head slightly and nodded to him cradling my arm to my chest.

988
00:42:16,760 --> 00:42:20,040
When I turned back to face Lynn I saw that her focus had shifted.

989
00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:21,960
She wasn't looking at me anymore.

990
00:42:21,960 --> 00:42:24,080
And she wasn't smiling anymore either.

991
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:28,480
She was staring past me, her eyes glaring at Chris the way a hungry lion might stare

992
00:42:28,480 --> 00:42:29,480
at an antelope.

993
00:42:29,480 --> 00:42:32,440
Her mouth was still hanging open but it was twisted into a snarl.

994
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:37,160
I got to my feet and began walking backwards down the hall, afraid to take my eyes off

995
00:42:37,160 --> 00:42:38,160
her.

996
00:42:38,160 --> 00:42:39,600
Are you bleeding Chris-ass?

997
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:44,520
The moment the words left his mouth Lynn started fast scooting out from under the bed.

998
00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:46,720
The glass shard still in her fist.

999
00:42:46,720 --> 00:42:48,560
Chris run goyalt!

1000
00:42:48,560 --> 00:42:52,480
He must have been too afraid to move because a moment later I felt my back bump into him.

1001
00:42:52,480 --> 00:42:56,760
He was still standing at the top of the stairs, staring at the horror that was my wife.

1002
00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,800
Lynn had crawled completely out from under the bed and stood in the bedroom doorway.

1003
00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:01,400
Her face twisted and raged.

1004
00:43:01,400 --> 00:43:03,200
Her whole body was visibly tense.

1005
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:05,520
Blood ran down her fingers and onto the floor.

1006
00:43:05,520 --> 00:43:07,680
Lynn, Chris said, you what?

1007
00:43:07,680 --> 00:43:08,840
Playing hide and seek?

1008
00:43:08,840 --> 00:43:11,280
I reached back and pushed him towards the steps.

1009
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:15,320
Move your ass Chris, as I said, as quietly but firmly as I could.

1010
00:43:15,320 --> 00:43:19,880
Lynn bobbed her head in fast sharp motions and began to grin, stretching her mouth open

1011
00:43:19,880 --> 00:43:22,960
wider and wider so that her chin seemed to touch her chest.

1012
00:43:22,960 --> 00:43:26,920
I heard Chris mutter a prayer and then he was running down the stairs.

1013
00:43:26,920 --> 00:43:30,880
I stood at the top of the steps, stuck between the love for a woman who clearly needed serious

1014
00:43:30,880 --> 00:43:32,760
help and self-preservation.

1015
00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:35,400
I only want to help, I said, choking back tears.

1016
00:43:35,400 --> 00:43:38,920
Her eyes focused on me once again as she slowly lifted the glass, holding it out in front

1017
00:43:38,920 --> 00:43:43,280
of her and then she started sprinting towards me, grinning with utter excitement.

1018
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:47,320
Thankfully my body took over and I flew down the stairs, skipping two or three at a time.

1019
00:43:47,320 --> 00:43:52,280
I made it to the front door before I felt her leap onto my back, wrapping her arms around

1020
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:56,400
my neck, her open mouth next to my ears so that I could hear those terrible, hiccuping

1021
00:43:56,400 --> 00:43:58,280
sounds up so close.

1022
00:43:58,280 --> 00:44:00,480
I shook her off me, knocking her to the floor.

1023
00:44:00,480 --> 00:44:04,920
I felt a searing pain in my back as she went but I tore open the front door and bolted

1024
00:44:04,920 --> 00:44:05,920
to my car.

1025
00:44:05,920 --> 00:44:09,160
Chris was standing in the front yard, talking on the phone with a police.

1026
00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,880
I didn't say a word, I just ran in my car and jumped in.

1027
00:44:11,880 --> 00:44:15,480
Chris took the hint and followed me, still online with 911.

1028
00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:21,120
I watched the rear-roomier, sure I'd see her there, running after us, but I never did.

1029
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:24,520
I went straight to the ER, got 11 stitches in my arm and three on my back.

1030
00:44:24,520 --> 00:44:28,080
The police asked a lot of questions and went back to the house to do a search, but of course

1031
00:44:28,080 --> 00:44:29,240
Lynn wasn't there.

1032
00:44:29,240 --> 00:44:32,640
They advised me to stay with a friend or relative for a while and to file a restraining order

1033
00:44:32,640 --> 00:44:35,400
as soon as I could, but none of those things would matter.

1034
00:44:35,400 --> 00:44:36,400
Somehow I just knew.

1035
00:44:36,400 --> 00:44:39,600
I dropped Chris off at home and went to a motel an hour away.

1036
00:44:39,600 --> 00:44:43,000
I wanted to put as much distance between me and Lynn as I could.

1037
00:44:43,000 --> 00:44:45,160
This is where I'd been for the last four hours.

1038
00:44:45,160 --> 00:44:49,160
I thought maybe the police would find her, maybe they'd get her the help she desperately

1039
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:51,000
needs, but now I don't think so.

1040
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:55,360
Because 40 minutes ago I just got a text from an unknown number, just three words, I found

1041
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:56,360
you.

1042
00:44:56,360 --> 00:44:59,640
The picture was attached, the picture was dark and grainy, but I instantly knew what

1043
00:44:59,640 --> 00:45:00,960
it was.

1044
00:45:00,960 --> 00:45:03,200
There was no mistaking my wife's eye.

1045
00:45:03,200 --> 00:45:07,560
I started typing this out immediately after, I don't know what to do, I'm alone and scared

1046
00:45:07,560 --> 00:45:10,440
and I can't help but feel that I'm being watched.

1047
00:45:10,440 --> 00:45:16,560
Whitney, where the hell did you find that?

1048
00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:17,560
Read it!

1049
00:45:17,560 --> 00:45:18,560
I swear!

1050
00:45:18,560 --> 00:45:19,560
Oh my gosh.

1051
00:45:19,560 --> 00:45:25,000
Okay, so let's start from the beginning.

1052
00:45:25,000 --> 00:45:27,040
He's married to this girl.

1053
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:28,040
Yeah we know.

1054
00:45:28,040 --> 00:45:29,040
And she's fine.

1055
00:45:29,040 --> 00:45:32,040
And she's not a thief.

1056
00:45:32,040 --> 00:45:33,720
Let's talk about the mom.

1057
00:45:33,720 --> 00:45:36,600
That's something that I was very like, there was something there.

1058
00:45:36,600 --> 00:45:39,640
Well if she has the same problem.

1059
00:45:39,640 --> 00:45:40,640
Like she's crazy too.

1060
00:45:40,640 --> 00:45:42,440
Yeah, it's just like she's weird too.

1061
00:45:42,440 --> 00:45:45,320
No, I bet she's done it when she was younger or something.

1062
00:45:45,320 --> 00:45:48,520
I bet like weird stuff has happened like her growing up.

1063
00:45:48,520 --> 00:45:52,840
Because she did say get her help and he was like, I don't know what that meant.

1064
00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,520
Like what do you, I'm dying to hear your guys' thoughts.

1065
00:45:55,520 --> 00:45:56,520
Are you guys scared?

1066
00:45:56,520 --> 00:45:58,000
Oh, the whole time.

1067
00:45:58,000 --> 00:46:00,800
That was, that's like I'm gonna have nightmares for sure.

1068
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:05,400
But then like if you pranked me like that even once.

1069
00:46:05,400 --> 00:46:12,040
On all fours after peeking on the floor of the action island.

1070
00:46:12,040 --> 00:46:14,440
I'm sorry, no.

1071
00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:20,280
And then going on all fours up the stairs and like moaning as you're doing it.

1072
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:23,280
The fact that it was a moan, I couldn't get past that every single time.

1073
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:24,280
Or like the hiccup.

1074
00:46:24,280 --> 00:46:25,800
No, it's like.

1075
00:46:25,800 --> 00:46:30,440
Like she lost her voice and she's just like.

1076
00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,480
Yeah, it's like she's totally possessed.

1077
00:46:32,480 --> 00:46:34,560
That's what it feels like.

1078
00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:40,080
Like Isaiah gets mad at me if I even like behind the door and I like, like, I don't

1079
00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:41,080
do that.

1080
00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:42,080
Yeah, no, yeah.

1081
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:43,080
Don't scare each other.

1082
00:46:43,080 --> 00:46:44,080
Yes.

1083
00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:45,080
That's a rule.

1084
00:46:45,080 --> 00:46:46,080
We don't scare each other.

1085
00:46:46,080 --> 00:46:47,080
Joe's not allowed to scare me.

1086
00:46:47,080 --> 00:46:48,080
Oh.

1087
00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:50,480
I don't know if it's the same time where he scared me so bad.

1088
00:46:50,480 --> 00:46:51,480
He felt so bad.

1089
00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:53,640
He's I think I said, don't ever do that to me again.

1090
00:46:53,640 --> 00:46:54,640
And he never asked.

1091
00:46:54,640 --> 00:46:59,280
I was like playing music all loud outside and I was vacuuming and stuff and you were

1092
00:46:59,280 --> 00:47:00,280
going to come out of your room.

1093
00:47:00,280 --> 00:47:05,000
I was waiting for you to come out and as soon as you opened the door, it's like, wow.

1094
00:47:05,000 --> 00:47:06,680
And she's like started crying.

1095
00:47:06,680 --> 00:47:09,880
Like I just lost and like she's like slam the door.

1096
00:47:09,880 --> 00:47:12,080
It's like, oh, I messed up.

1097
00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,080
I messed up bad.

1098
00:47:14,080 --> 00:47:16,080
Yeah, I'm like full on.

1099
00:47:16,080 --> 00:47:21,280
I just think scared like I just think in your house getting scared.

1100
00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:28,280
It's not a good idea because it's like, what if I have something in my hand and I just

1101
00:47:28,280 --> 00:47:29,880
I'm going to hit you.

1102
00:47:29,880 --> 00:47:35,200
Yeah, like anything like if I have a huge if I have a freaking water bottle and you scare

1103
00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:37,760
me like I'm going to hit you.

1104
00:47:37,760 --> 00:47:38,760
It was posted three.

1105
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:39,760
Okay.

1106
00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:41,540
So it was posted three years ago.

1107
00:47:41,540 --> 00:47:43,320
I would love an update.

1108
00:47:43,320 --> 00:47:44,320
That would be awesome.

1109
00:47:44,320 --> 00:47:46,000
Like, did the cops find?

1110
00:47:46,000 --> 00:47:47,000
There's no update.

1111
00:47:47,000 --> 00:47:48,000
He died right after he posted.

1112
00:47:48,000 --> 00:47:49,000
Oh my gosh.

1113
00:47:49,000 --> 00:47:53,440
Yeah, because he went to this hotel room and four hours later posted this whole thing.

1114
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:54,440
She's there.

1115
00:47:54,440 --> 00:47:55,440
Here's the thing.

1116
00:47:55,440 --> 00:47:56,440
Okay.

1117
00:47:56,440 --> 00:47:57,520
Here's the thing about Lynn.

1118
00:47:57,520 --> 00:47:59,920
She might be she's the devil.

1119
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:04,720
No, but in all honesty, whether it's like being possessed, whether it's really good

1120
00:48:04,720 --> 00:48:07,920
writing from somebody that's writing a novel, I don't really know.

1121
00:48:07,920 --> 00:48:13,160
All I know is if I was him and it's like the one that pushed me overboard was a while ago.

1122
00:48:13,160 --> 00:48:16,600
It was when she was in the trunk, when she was in the chest.

1123
00:48:16,600 --> 00:48:18,160
Are you reading comments right now?

1124
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:19,160
Babe, I'm listening.

1125
00:48:19,160 --> 00:48:20,160
Oh, okay.

1126
00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:24,640
Well, when she was in the chest, that was you.

1127
00:48:24,640 --> 00:48:27,880
I'd be like, okay, like the show's over.

1128
00:48:27,880 --> 00:48:28,880
Yeah.

1129
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:30,360
Everything's, this has been really funny.

1130
00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:31,360
You did a good job.

1131
00:48:31,360 --> 00:48:35,000
I'd be like, open the chest, come on out.

1132
00:48:35,000 --> 00:48:36,000
This is over.

1133
00:48:36,000 --> 00:48:37,000
You're done.

1134
00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:42,080
And I'm looking at you like, yeah, I'd be like, okay, I am absolutely terrified.

1135
00:48:42,080 --> 00:48:44,520
If we need to fight right now, we're going to fight.

1136
00:48:44,520 --> 00:48:48,960
I feel like by this point, you would have, you would have tackled me or something.

1137
00:48:48,960 --> 00:48:51,880
Well, no, because he just kept, he just kept going away from her.

1138
00:48:51,880 --> 00:48:52,880
He kept like running away.

1139
00:48:52,880 --> 00:48:53,880
Yeah.

1140
00:48:53,880 --> 00:48:54,880
And I get being scared.

1141
00:48:54,880 --> 00:48:58,800
Like I, like you could make a creepy face and I'd be like, okay, that's a little creepy.

1142
00:48:58,800 --> 00:49:02,800
But then I would, I would like turn a corner when I'm ready to be done with it.

1143
00:49:02,800 --> 00:49:03,800
Hold on.

1144
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:04,800
I'm ready to be done with the joke.

1145
00:49:04,800 --> 00:49:09,280
I'd be like, okay, I know that you're being funny and that we like this, that kind of

1146
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:10,280
stuff.

1147
00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:12,640
I'm over it now because you're freaking me out.

1148
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:17,960
So if you want to keep taking it to the next level, let's, let's, yeah.

1149
00:49:17,960 --> 00:49:21,800
But there's a difference between like, you can just see it in someone when they're just

1150
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:27,440
being like creepy and like they're like, they've lost their crap.

1151
00:49:27,440 --> 00:49:28,440
Like they're possessed.

1152
00:49:28,440 --> 00:49:33,960
And that's, that I feel like that's where as a, even a guy, you're going to be running

1153
00:49:33,960 --> 00:49:35,520
away because you're scared.

1154
00:49:35,520 --> 00:49:40,480
I've never been in a position where I could tell that somebody was possessed.

1155
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:45,320
Like I would always just assume that if they're like putting on that creepy face, yeah, like,

1156
00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:46,600
okay, yeah, I get it.

1157
00:49:46,600 --> 00:49:47,600
You're creepy.

1158
00:49:47,600 --> 00:49:52,040
But like, I wouldn't be like, okay, I'm going to run away now.

1159
00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:53,040
Right.

1160
00:49:53,040 --> 00:49:55,000
Like I just, that's just not how it works for me.

1161
00:49:55,000 --> 00:49:56,000
Right.

1162
00:49:56,000 --> 00:49:57,000
Cause you've never experienced this.

1163
00:49:57,000 --> 00:50:00,000
You wouldn't know what you would actually do in that moment.

1164
00:50:00,000 --> 00:50:02,400
And I don't believe in them.

1165
00:50:02,400 --> 00:50:03,400
Yes.

1166
00:50:03,400 --> 00:50:04,600
I don't know.

1167
00:50:04,600 --> 00:50:11,320
I think I, what you're saying Whitney about it, just being like there's from like someone

1168
00:50:11,320 --> 00:50:18,880
joking and like this past joking, like the second time that it happened, like when she's

1169
00:50:18,880 --> 00:50:22,720
running on all fours up the bed and then it's just like asleep in the bed.

1170
00:50:22,720 --> 00:50:24,480
Like the shower too.

1171
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,760
Oh, that's absolutely terrifying.

1172
00:50:26,760 --> 00:50:29,800
That was literally terrifying.

1173
00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:30,800
She's there.

1174
00:50:30,800 --> 00:50:32,800
She's wet makeup running.

1175
00:50:32,800 --> 00:50:38,280
And they just stand, they just stand there looking at each other for like multiple minutes.

1176
00:50:38,280 --> 00:50:39,280
Wasn't it?

1177
00:50:39,280 --> 00:50:40,280
He said like, yeah.

1178
00:50:40,280 --> 00:50:44,280
Like a minute, like moments shrunk together.

1179
00:50:44,280 --> 00:50:51,480
I would have grabbed your head and just right on the wall.

1180
00:50:51,480 --> 00:50:52,480
Like it's over.

1181
00:50:52,480 --> 00:50:53,480
Yeah.

1182
00:50:53,480 --> 00:50:54,480
No, no, no.

1183
00:50:54,480 --> 00:50:55,480
You mess with me in the shower.

1184
00:50:55,480 --> 00:50:57,480
That's like my safe spot.

1185
00:50:57,480 --> 00:50:58,480
It's over.

1186
00:50:58,480 --> 00:51:01,800
Your head is going into the shit like into the wall.

1187
00:51:01,800 --> 00:51:06,960
No, but honestly, I give permission at that point.

1188
00:51:06,960 --> 00:51:12,120
Like if, if I have scared you that many times and I am, it's like, I'm not just boo like

1189
00:51:12,120 --> 00:51:13,120
in the corner.

1190
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:18,120
Like, wow, you know, it's full on creepy.

1191
00:51:18,120 --> 00:51:20,600
Like trying to be scared, like trying to be a weirdo.

1192
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:22,840
But the thing is she's not even trying to be a weirdo.

1193
00:51:22,840 --> 00:51:23,840
She is.

1194
00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:26,720
She is like something is genuinely wrong.

1195
00:51:26,720 --> 00:51:27,720
The eyeballs.

1196
00:51:27,720 --> 00:51:28,720
Okay.

1197
00:51:28,720 --> 00:51:30,600
What did that start?

1198
00:51:30,600 --> 00:51:34,320
I literally like.

1199
00:51:34,320 --> 00:51:35,960
When did that start?

1200
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,040
What switched in her to like start this?

1201
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:42,760
But the thing is, so like she must have gotten those.

1202
00:51:42,760 --> 00:51:45,680
She literally got those in the last two days.

1203
00:51:45,680 --> 00:51:46,680
Yes.

1204
00:51:46,680 --> 00:51:48,240
Because he has been gone two days.

1205
00:51:48,240 --> 00:51:49,240
They're not rotting.

1206
00:51:49,240 --> 00:51:58,880
They're not like shriveled up and like they're fresh to an extent and like that's just like

1207
00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:00,560
what's the black mark.

1208
00:52:00,560 --> 00:52:01,560
How do you get?

1209
00:52:01,560 --> 00:52:02,560
How do you get?

1210
00:52:02,560 --> 00:52:03,560
She extracted them herself.

1211
00:52:03,560 --> 00:52:04,560
100%.

1212
00:52:04,560 --> 00:52:10,960
It's not even like you could get those from a dead animal because if they're dead, like

1213
00:52:10,960 --> 00:52:14,760
your eyes are your first thing to like rot out.

1214
00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:18,240
This sounds like the plot of a crazy, freaking movie.

1215
00:52:18,240 --> 00:52:20,320
I'd watch it.

1216
00:52:20,320 --> 00:52:21,320
It's like half us.

1217
00:52:21,320 --> 00:52:24,000
This is like, I like it's giving it to a T.

1218
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:25,000
No, no, no, no.

1219
00:52:25,000 --> 00:52:26,000
Have you seen it?

1220
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:28,000
The hiccuping like, no, no, no, no.

1221
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:29,400
The way they look, babe.

1222
00:52:29,400 --> 00:52:32,720
The grandma just out of nowhere just starts going kind of cuckoo.

1223
00:52:32,720 --> 00:52:34,000
But it's only at night times.

1224
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,000
She has sundowns.

1225
00:52:35,000 --> 00:52:40,600
Like, I'm just saying like that reminds me of like, but it's the, it's the peeping.

1226
00:52:40,600 --> 00:52:44,040
It all starts with like the, like the little like creep around corners.

1227
00:52:44,040 --> 00:52:45,040
Yeah.

1228
00:52:45,040 --> 00:52:46,040
That's weird.

1229
00:52:46,040 --> 00:52:50,040
So could you, well, I mean, that would be a good form of nightmares tonight.

1230
00:52:50,040 --> 00:52:51,880
Oh, they will.

1231
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:52,880
That was scary.

1232
00:52:52,880 --> 00:52:54,880
And I be fake.

1233
00:52:54,880 --> 00:52:57,360
No, no, no, it's, I hope so.

1234
00:52:57,360 --> 00:52:58,360
I really hope so.

1235
00:52:58,360 --> 00:53:01,680
I don't think, I think chat GPT has a character limit.

1236
00:53:01,680 --> 00:53:04,840
So this is just from real scary stories.

1237
00:53:04,840 --> 00:53:06,280
Messed me up for years.

1238
00:53:06,280 --> 00:53:08,280
Anyone had anything similar.

1239
00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:14,120
I also posted this in a scary stories sub, but figured someone here may have some thoughts

1240
00:53:14,120 --> 00:53:15,120
as well.

1241
00:53:15,120 --> 00:53:20,160
Years ago, maybe 2006, 2007 ish, I took my girlfriend, now wife to the movies.

1242
00:53:20,160 --> 00:53:22,320
We were just out of high school.

1243
00:53:22,320 --> 00:53:26,600
We decided to see the exorcism of Emily Rose against her mother's advice.

1244
00:53:26,600 --> 00:53:28,520
We made it through half of the movie.

1245
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:31,200
She wasn't enjoying it at all and neither was I.

1246
00:53:31,200 --> 00:53:35,800
We had out early and since we have some time left, we decided to head to the park next

1247
00:53:35,800 --> 00:53:39,600
to her house and just hang for a bit before I had to drop her off.

1248
00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:40,600
We park my truck.

1249
00:53:40,600 --> 00:53:43,400
I take the keys out of the ignition and set them in my lap.

1250
00:53:43,400 --> 00:53:49,040
A few seconds after this, the radio comes on and the LCD display is just showing some

1251
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:53,480
weird symbols and there's a very deep voice coming from the speakers.

1252
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,600
It was really loud and clear.

1253
00:53:55,600 --> 00:54:00,320
But the words it was saying weren't English and neither of us understood what it was saying.

1254
00:54:00,320 --> 00:54:03,400
We proceeded to jump out of the truck, kinda freaked out.

1255
00:54:03,400 --> 00:54:07,240
After the scary movie, we were very uneasy and this was just over the top.

1256
00:54:07,240 --> 00:54:10,440
When we hopped out, the radio shut off and the voice stopped.

1257
00:54:10,440 --> 00:54:13,800
After a few minutes, we decided we should head to her house now.

1258
00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:16,800
She lived less than a block so we spent over there.

1259
00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,880
Once there, I had the strangest feeling like someone was right behind me or watching me.

1260
00:54:20,880 --> 00:54:22,520
I was really scared at this point.

1261
00:54:22,520 --> 00:54:23,920
It was just so odd.

1262
00:54:23,920 --> 00:54:28,200
I called my mom, told her that I couldn't explain now but I wouldn't be home tonight

1263
00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,440
and I would tell her more in the morning.

1264
00:54:30,440 --> 00:54:33,040
No way I was driving that truck home alone in the dark.

1265
00:54:33,040 --> 00:54:36,760
We sat there for a while with her family and I asked her mom if I could stay the night

1266
00:54:36,760 --> 00:54:37,760
there.

1267
00:54:37,760 --> 00:54:39,800
And her dad said I could share a room with her brother.

1268
00:54:39,800 --> 00:54:44,840
Fast forward to when we were going to sleep, her brother gave me the bed and slept on the

1269
00:54:44,840 --> 00:54:47,640
floor facing away from me towards the door.

1270
00:54:47,640 --> 00:54:52,320
After a bit, sitting there, propped up on my elbow facing the door, all of a sudden it

1271
00:54:52,320 --> 00:54:55,320
got very cold and I couldn't move or talk.

1272
00:54:55,320 --> 00:55:02,760
Into the doorway walks a silhouetted figure that was black like smoke with solid white

1273
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:06,240
eyes and appeared to have dreadlocks and high ponytail.

1274
00:55:06,240 --> 00:55:11,000
It stood in the doorway for what seemed like forever, staring straight into my eyes and

1275
00:55:11,000 --> 00:55:13,680
then turned and walked into the bathroom.

1276
00:55:13,680 --> 00:55:16,240
As soon as it leaves the door, I can move again.

1277
00:55:16,240 --> 00:55:18,640
So I have to know if it's in the bathroom at this point.

1278
00:55:18,640 --> 00:55:20,680
I nervously get up and get out of bed.

1279
00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:23,000
Her brother startles me by saying what are you doing?

1280
00:55:23,000 --> 00:55:25,120
And I said I have to go to the bathroom.

1281
00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:26,120
Nothing was there.

1282
00:55:26,120 --> 00:55:31,000
Since in that movie, the weird stuff always happened at 3.30am for the next 4 years or

1283
00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:37,840
so almost every night I woke up at 3.30am with the same someone watching me feeling.

1284
00:55:37,840 --> 00:55:43,480
I chalked it up to sleep paralysis and a weird tech glitch and the rest of me being paranoid

1285
00:55:43,480 --> 00:55:45,000
and anxious about it.

1286
00:55:45,000 --> 00:55:49,920
I told all my friends over the years and about 2 years ago decided to tell my brother in

1287
00:55:49,920 --> 00:55:50,920
the morning.

1288
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:55,000
He was dumbfounded when I told him and said that he remembers that night very clearly

1289
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:58,040
because he was frozen and saw the same thing.

1290
00:55:58,040 --> 00:55:59,400
So what the heck?

1291
00:55:59,400 --> 00:56:00,800
Anyone have anything similar?

1292
00:56:00,800 --> 00:56:03,880
I actually know someone that has something similar.

1293
00:56:03,880 --> 00:56:05,080
Really?

1294
00:56:05,080 --> 00:56:11,920
On my mission, there was a member that served his mission in South Africa and there was

1295
00:56:11,920 --> 00:56:14,280
a certain place that missionaries lived.

1296
00:56:14,280 --> 00:56:18,760
Every time a new missionary, there was four missionaries in this one place, every time

1297
00:56:18,760 --> 00:56:23,360
a new missionary would come, the missionaries that were there before weren't allowed to

1298
00:56:23,360 --> 00:56:24,440
say anything.

1299
00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:26,720
The mission president told them.

1300
00:56:26,720 --> 00:56:33,360
And what would happen is that at 2.55am all the missionaries would wake up at the same

1301
00:56:33,360 --> 00:56:34,360
time.

1302
00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:39,680
Not for no reason, but they would just be wide awake right away and then after a few

1303
00:56:39,680 --> 00:56:41,800
minutes they'd be able to go back to bed.

1304
00:56:41,800 --> 00:56:46,840
And he said that every missionary that would go there and he said he was there for like

1305
00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:48,520
six months.

1306
00:56:48,520 --> 00:56:53,720
And for those six months, at the same time every morning he would wake up and all the

1307
00:56:53,720 --> 00:56:54,720
missionaries would wake up.

1308
00:56:54,720 --> 00:56:58,040
Wait for the six, like it wasn't just like the first time?

1309
00:56:58,040 --> 00:57:01,280
Yeah, no, it was like a thing that's been happening.

1310
00:57:01,280 --> 00:57:03,520
The mission president knew about it.

1311
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:08,360
His first night there, he woke up at 2.55am and like oh no, it happened like two days

1312
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:10,760
in a row and he was like what the heck.

1313
00:57:10,760 --> 00:57:16,680
So finally he said something to the missionaries that were there before that have been there

1314
00:57:16,680 --> 00:57:21,280
and they were like yeah we were waiting for you to say something but we wake up at the

1315
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:22,280
same time.

1316
00:57:22,280 --> 00:57:23,280
Bro, no, God.

1317
00:57:23,280 --> 00:57:24,280
I'd be out of there so fast.

1318
00:57:24,280 --> 00:57:30,400
I would be like mission president please get me out of here.

1319
00:57:30,400 --> 00:57:36,800
Yeah, I remember him telling me that and me and other missionaries were like so creeped

1320
00:57:36,800 --> 00:57:37,800
out.

1321
00:57:37,800 --> 00:57:38,800
Yeah.

1322
00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:42,000
The evil spirit leaves after about five minutes and you can just go back to sleep.

1323
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:45,040
It's going to happen every night that you're there but it's fine.

1324
00:57:45,040 --> 00:57:48,080
It's only five minutes left to sleep.

1325
00:57:48,080 --> 00:57:50,520
They should have like gotten a different apartment.

1326
00:57:50,520 --> 00:57:51,520
Oh my gosh.

1327
00:57:51,520 --> 00:57:54,920
Yeah, I mean whoever was haunting that, that's crazy.

1328
00:57:54,920 --> 00:57:56,640
I have a story about that movie.

1329
00:57:56,640 --> 00:57:57,880
I've told you this before.

1330
00:57:57,880 --> 00:57:58,880
I've never seen it.

1331
00:57:58,880 --> 00:57:59,880
What movie?

1332
00:57:59,880 --> 00:58:00,880
It's awful.

1333
00:58:00,880 --> 00:58:01,880
Exorcism of Emily Rose.

1334
00:58:01,880 --> 00:58:03,720
Oh yeah, Joe has a story.

1335
00:58:03,720 --> 00:58:04,720
This is gnarly.

1336
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:05,720
It's very fast.

1337
00:58:05,720 --> 00:58:10,040
When I was in like ninth grade I saw this, I saw that movie at a house party.

1338
00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:14,960
Like we all went there, we're chilling, eating chips and dip and yeah everything.

1339
00:58:14,960 --> 00:58:16,480
Like it was like a big party.

1340
00:58:16,480 --> 00:58:18,760
There's tons of people there.

1341
00:58:18,760 --> 00:58:24,640
So I ate something at that party that made me super sick and I like obviously I didn't

1342
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:25,640
know at the time.

1343
00:58:25,640 --> 00:58:28,160
We were just chilling, we all watched the movie.

1344
00:58:28,160 --> 00:58:30,720
It is, it's horrible.

1345
00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:31,720
It's not a good movie.

1346
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:33,760
It's just dark.

1347
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:37,080
So whatever.

1348
00:58:37,080 --> 00:58:40,600
We slept at my dad's girlfriend's house that night and I had two buddies with me.

1349
00:58:40,600 --> 00:58:44,280
She had these big love sacks so we each slept on a love sack.

1350
00:58:44,280 --> 00:58:48,600
When I woke up I don't know what time it was, probably 3.30 in the morning because that

1351
00:58:48,600 --> 00:58:50,480
would have fit but I don't know what time it was.

1352
00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:54,080
Eyes open and I'm like oh shiz I'm gonna puke.

1353
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:57,040
Like I'm going to yak everywhere.

1354
00:58:57,040 --> 00:58:59,560
And I was like should I get up?

1355
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,560
Like if I get up it's gonna be everywhere.

1356
00:59:02,560 --> 00:59:05,880
And as soon as I did I like stood up and projectile.

1357
00:59:05,880 --> 00:59:09,720
Like not to be gross, not to be too graphic but like think of the noises right?

1358
00:59:09,720 --> 00:59:12,040
Like it's when it's like...

1359
00:59:12,040 --> 00:59:13,040
Ew.

1360
00:59:13,040 --> 00:59:18,520
Okay the reason that's significant is because both of my buddies were having nightmares about

1361
00:59:18,520 --> 00:59:22,080
the movie so the noise they both were like...

1362
00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,080
Oh no.

1363
00:59:24,080 --> 00:59:30,080
They were losing it and the one was like dude I was legitimately having a nightmare.

1364
00:59:30,080 --> 00:59:31,680
I'm gonna be traumatized.

1365
00:59:31,680 --> 00:59:32,840
That's terrible.

1366
00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:34,720
It was horrible.

1367
00:59:34,720 --> 00:59:39,080
Not just because of the movie but like it was such a mess and I literally went upstairs

1368
00:59:39,080 --> 00:59:43,280
and like woke my dad and his girlfriend up and I'm like I just puked everywhere.

1369
00:59:43,280 --> 00:59:46,960
You're fresh when you're like oh they'll help me dad.

1370
00:59:46,960 --> 00:59:47,960
I can't do that.

1371
00:59:47,960 --> 00:59:48,960
What do I do?

1372
00:59:48,960 --> 00:59:49,960
Did you clean it up?

1373
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:53,560
No my dad's girlfriend ran downstairs and helped me clean it up.

1374
00:59:53,560 --> 00:59:54,560
She was a saint.

1375
00:59:54,560 --> 00:59:55,560
That was nice.

1376
00:59:55,560 --> 00:59:56,960
She helped me clean it all up.

1377
00:59:56,960 --> 00:59:57,960
It was on her love sack.

1378
00:59:57,960 --> 00:59:58,960
It was on the floor.

1379
00:59:58,960 --> 00:59:59,960
It was everywhere.

1380
00:59:59,960 --> 01:00:00,960
And then the carpet.

1381
01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:02,800
It happened two more times that night.

1382
01:00:02,800 --> 01:00:07,160
I've never been so sick in my life but the next two times I was able to make it to the

1383
01:00:07,160 --> 01:00:08,160
scene.

1384
01:00:08,160 --> 01:00:09,160
The scene.

1385
01:00:09,160 --> 01:00:10,160
The scene.

1386
01:00:10,160 --> 01:00:11,160
Was it you?

1387
01:00:11,160 --> 01:00:12,160
That was a bit of a toilet?

1388
01:00:12,160 --> 01:00:13,160
No the disposal.

1389
01:00:13,160 --> 01:00:14,160
Oh.

1390
01:00:14,160 --> 01:00:17,160
Hey if you guys want to know.

1391
01:00:17,160 --> 01:00:19,160
Yeah like a bathroom sink.

1392
01:00:19,160 --> 01:00:20,160
Oh yeah no no no.

1393
01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:21,160
It was a kitchen sink.

1394
01:00:21,160 --> 01:00:25,880
It was a kitchenette like a rental part of her house.

1395
01:00:25,880 --> 01:00:27,280
Oh my gosh.

1396
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:28,280
I was taking a nap.

1397
01:00:28,280 --> 01:00:35,440
It was during lunch and I was taking a nap and the door was wide open to our room and

1398
01:00:35,440 --> 01:00:42,040
elder raider was my mission and he was making food and all of a sudden this is just like

1399
01:00:42,040 --> 01:00:44,440
a just brief.

1400
01:00:44,440 --> 01:00:50,480
Like I was dreaming of I was like having like a nightmare.

1401
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:58,200
And in the nightmare the door like slammed shut to our room like hard just slammed and

1402
01:00:58,200 --> 01:01:02,600
then I just like in the dream I remember like something coming over top of me.

1403
01:01:02,600 --> 01:01:07,920
And like I couldn't breathe I couldn't move and I just remember like screaming and like

1404
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,200
trying to yell for him and I couldn't.

1405
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:16,560
And I just like just felt all this darkness and could just see darkness and then I just

1406
01:01:16,560 --> 01:01:24,720
couldn't do anything and then finally I was able to like yeah like yell finally and then

1407
01:01:24,720 --> 01:01:30,080
I like wake up or whatever and I like get out of bed and I'm like open the door and

1408
01:01:30,080 --> 01:01:35,480
like walk out and I like talk to raider was like bro I just had the worst dream and he

01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:48,160

1411
01:01:48,160 --> 01:01:49,680
He's like I thought it was you.

1412
01:01:49,680 --> 01:01:55,200
He's like I thought you were like mad or something or like was mad like you could hear me out

1413
01:01:55,200 --> 01:01:59,360

1414
01:01:59,360 --> 01:02:06,840
And I was like yeah that thing literally slammed the door shut and got on top of you bro.

1415
01:02:06,840 --> 01:02:09,040
Isn't this creepiest thing ever.

1416
01:02:09,040 --> 01:02:10,760
Oh that's so creepy.

1417
01:02:10,760 --> 01:02:13,400
Oh I was so.

1418
01:02:13,400 --> 01:02:19,040
I remember he told me that and I was just like oh just a while.

1419
01:02:19,040 --> 01:02:21,280
We called out yeah we called right away.

1420
01:02:21,280 --> 01:02:23,520
We're like what do we do.

1421
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:27,000
The title is black hair.

1422
01:02:27,000 --> 01:02:29,000
I hate it already.

1423
01:02:29,000 --> 01:02:30,000
Lynn.

1424
01:02:30,000 --> 01:02:32,880
I've lived in the same house for over 12 years before I moved out.

1425
01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:36,440
It was an innocent vintage house that laid atop a hill.

1426
01:02:36,440 --> 01:02:39,160
We had a maid that usually cleaned our house once a month.

1427
01:02:39,160 --> 01:02:41,240
She was nice and we were close with her.

1428
01:02:41,240 --> 01:02:44,000
We were quite surprised when she said she was quitting.

1429
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:47,560
We kept asking her why but she wouldn't tell us saying that she wasn't comfortable with

1430
01:02:47,560 --> 01:02:48,800
telling us.

1431
01:02:48,800 --> 01:02:50,640
We were beyond confused.

1432
01:02:50,640 --> 01:02:54,880
After lots of begging she finally told us what made her want to quit.

1433
01:02:54,880 --> 01:02:58,480
She said that while she was cleaning the house she saw a girl in a white dress with long

1434
01:02:58,480 --> 01:03:00,640
black hair that covered her face.

1435
01:03:00,640 --> 01:03:05,080
We all had dirty blonde hair and we weren't home at the time she was cleaning the house.

1436
01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:06,080
We were super freaked.

1437
01:03:06,080 --> 01:03:09,760
That night when I was in bed it suddenly got cold.

1438
01:03:09,760 --> 01:03:15,120
I hugged the nearest pillow next to me and prayed that it would keep me warm.

1439
01:03:15,120 --> 01:03:20,560
That morning I woke up and found a long black block of hair in my bed.

1440
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:23,640
The pillow I was hugging was on the opposite side of the room.

1441
01:03:23,640 --> 01:03:28,080
My siblings pranked me a lot so I automatically assumed that they were messing with me.

1442
01:03:28,080 --> 01:03:31,640
So I ran downstairs into the rooms and told them that it wasn't funny.

1443
01:03:31,640 --> 01:03:33,840
They denied it but I didn't believe them.

1444
01:03:33,840 --> 01:03:38,320
That was until they told me that they weren't home last night and just got back this morning.

1445
01:03:38,320 --> 01:03:40,520
They were both out of sleep over with their friends.

1446
01:03:40,520 --> 01:03:44,320
I knew my parents wouldn't do this so I immediately was freaked out.

1447
01:03:44,320 --> 01:03:48,440
Since that moment everyone refused to sleep over claiming that they would see a girl of

1448
01:03:48,440 --> 01:03:50,840
the exact description of our maid.

1449
01:03:50,840 --> 01:03:54,640
Everyone refused to sleep over claiming that they would see a girl of the exact description

1450
01:03:54,640 --> 01:03:57,000
of our maid staring at them.

1451
01:03:57,000 --> 01:03:59,920
I would keep waking up with strands of hair in my bed.

1452
01:03:59,920 --> 01:04:03,800
It got so bad to the point where I started sleeping in my parents room.

1453
01:04:03,800 --> 01:04:09,280
We moved out now but I soon found out that way back a serial killer lived in our house

1454
01:04:09,280 --> 01:04:16,320
buried his victims under his house and that he preferred little girls.

1455
01:04:16,320 --> 01:04:19,680
This still freaks me out till this day.

1456
01:04:19,680 --> 01:04:27,920
It shouldn't be disclosed to the homeowners.

1457
01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:31,360
But it wasn't his house, it was his parents house.

1458
01:04:31,360 --> 01:04:32,360
So he wouldn't have known.

1459
01:04:32,360 --> 01:04:36,720
His parents were like that's fine bro we got a discount on the house.

1460
01:04:36,720 --> 01:04:37,720
Would you do that?

1461
01:04:37,720 --> 01:04:38,720
Absolutely not.

1462
01:04:38,720 --> 01:04:41,600
A beautiful mansion and you could afford it.

1463
01:04:41,600 --> 01:04:43,760
It's like the one in Torion, the murder house.

1464
01:04:43,760 --> 01:04:44,760
Oh yeah.

1465
01:04:44,760 --> 01:04:47,920
Is it for sale or did somebody buy it?

1466
01:04:47,920 --> 01:04:49,660
I think it's always up for sale.

1467
01:04:49,660 --> 01:04:50,660
People come and go.

1468
01:04:50,660 --> 01:04:52,640
Yeah I don't know actually.

1469
01:04:52,640 --> 01:04:54,080
I don't think anyone lives in it.

1470
01:04:54,080 --> 01:04:56,080
I don't think people own it right now.

1471
01:04:56,080 --> 01:04:58,560
Oh how can you buy it?

1472
01:04:58,560 --> 01:05:00,240
I would because.

1473
01:05:00,240 --> 01:05:01,920
Do you know about the Torion murder?

1474
01:05:01,920 --> 01:05:04,480
Yeah he told me the whole story I think that's lit.

1475
01:05:04,480 --> 01:05:05,480
Joe.

1476
01:05:05,480 --> 01:05:07,800
I mean like it's just crazy that it happened there.

1477
01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:08,800
I would buy it.

1478
01:05:08,800 --> 01:05:09,800
I don't know.

1479
01:05:09,800 --> 01:05:10,800
That's crazy.

1480
01:05:10,800 --> 01:05:15,560
Okay but so what do you think is going on with this kid?

1481
01:05:15,560 --> 01:05:17,680
Why is there long black hairs in his bed?

1482
01:05:17,680 --> 01:05:18,680
That's nuts.

1483
01:05:18,680 --> 01:05:20,480
What do you think it is?

1484
01:05:20,480 --> 01:05:23,040
Can a ghost even do that?

1485
01:05:23,040 --> 01:05:24,040
Leave like physical.

1486
01:05:24,040 --> 01:05:27,960
Yeah I probably plucked it off of one of the dead bodies under the foundation and just

1487
01:05:27,960 --> 01:05:29,120
brought it right up.

1488
01:05:29,120 --> 01:05:30,120
Yeah.

1489
01:05:30,120 --> 01:05:31,120
I don't know.

1490
01:05:31,120 --> 01:05:32,120
Just hair.

1491
01:05:32,120 --> 01:05:33,120
Hey.

1492
01:05:33,120 --> 01:05:34,120
Dysintegrate or anything.

1493
01:05:34,120 --> 01:05:35,120
This reminds me of another story.

1494
01:05:35,120 --> 01:05:40,120
Yeah I think it, it, it, there's a way.

1495
01:05:40,120 --> 01:05:41,120
Yeah.

1496
01:05:41,120 --> 01:05:42,120
No it doesn't.

1497
01:05:42,120 --> 01:05:43,120
Hair?

1498
01:05:43,120 --> 01:05:44,120
Hair?

1499
01:05:44,120 --> 01:05:45,120
Hair?

1500
01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:46,120
It'll stay forever.

1501
01:05:46,120 --> 01:05:47,120
Keep growing.

1502
01:05:47,120 --> 01:05:48,120
Not on a dead body.

1503
01:05:48,120 --> 01:05:49,120
No.

1504
01:05:49,120 --> 01:05:50,120
Hair?

1505
01:05:50,120 --> 01:05:51,120
Hair does not last.

1506
01:05:51,120 --> 01:05:52,120
Hair grows.

1507
01:05:52,120 --> 01:05:53,120
Hair will deteriorate just like skin.

1508
01:05:53,120 --> 01:05:54,120
Just like.

1509
01:05:54,120 --> 01:05:58,120
So a person that's buried for 5000 years how long is their hair now?

1510
01:05:58,120 --> 01:06:00,480
No it's just, that's just a skeleton at that point.

1511
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:01,480
It's, yeah the hair.

1512
01:06:01,480 --> 01:06:03,960
But it lasts longer.

1513
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:06,080
It lasts longer than like skin.

1514
01:06:06,080 --> 01:06:07,080
Yeah.

1515
01:06:07,080 --> 01:06:08,080
Than like blood and stuff.

1516
01:06:08,080 --> 01:06:09,080
Cause it's just dead cells.

1517
01:06:09,080 --> 01:06:10,080
I know.

1518
01:06:10,080 --> 01:06:12,440
How long does it take for your hair to just like, what does it do?

1519
01:06:12,440 --> 01:06:14,040
Just like crumble like sand?

1520
01:06:14,040 --> 01:06:19,040
Well isn't there times where like people will find in the last thing they'll have is like

1521
01:06:19,040 --> 01:06:21,520
they can like still look at their fingernails?

1522
01:06:21,520 --> 01:06:25,360
No they, they can like, get like an DNA under their feet.

1523
01:06:25,360 --> 01:06:26,480
Yeah that's different.

1524
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:29,320
And that's like me, that's like soon after.

1525
01:06:29,320 --> 01:06:31,360
You guys don't hear one of the comments?

1526
01:06:31,360 --> 01:06:32,360
Yeah.

1527
01:06:32,360 --> 01:06:34,360
Dogshit story not exciting.

1528
01:06:34,360 --> 01:06:35,360
Oh jeez.

1529
01:06:35,360 --> 01:06:36,360
Brutal.

1530
01:06:36,360 --> 01:06:39,360
It's just like I've heard way better.

1531
01:06:39,360 --> 01:06:42,360
I've heard Whitney's story.

1532
01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:46,360
I've heard Whitney's story and this is nothing.

1533
01:06:46,360 --> 01:06:49,360
I know good.

1534
01:06:49,360 --> 01:06:56,320
That would freak me out like every night being like where is this long black hair coming

1535
01:06:56,320 --> 01:06:57,320
from?

1536
01:06:57,320 --> 01:06:58,320
That's Joseph.

1537
01:06:58,320 --> 01:07:01,120
Yeah but it only happened once to Craig.

1538
01:07:01,120 --> 01:07:02,920
No he said it kept happening.

1539
01:07:02,920 --> 01:07:04,640
He said it happened a few times.

1540
01:07:04,640 --> 01:07:06,160
So it was parents.

1541
01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:07,640
Good listening Joe.

1542
01:07:07,640 --> 01:07:10,200
Put me on last night on there.

1543
01:07:10,200 --> 01:07:13,800
I find your long hairs everywhere.

1544
01:07:13,800 --> 01:07:19,120
Like I'll be like at the gym and like pull my phone out of my pocket and now it comes

1545
01:07:19,120 --> 01:07:26,120
like a just one long string of hair where I'm like it is not stopping.

1546
01:07:26,120 --> 01:07:30,400
That's when you find out how long like hair actually is.

1547
01:07:30,400 --> 01:07:36,840
Oh you guys well we hope here at Intermitt frenzy that you guys have the best most spookiest

1548
01:07:36,840 --> 01:07:38,120
Halloween this year.

1549
01:07:38,120 --> 01:07:39,440
Who was the fake?

1550
01:07:39,440 --> 01:07:40,440
Oh.

1551
01:07:40,440 --> 01:07:41,440
Oh.

1552
01:07:41,440 --> 01:07:42,440
I think it's Whitney.

1553
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:43,440
You think it's me?

1554
01:07:43,440 --> 01:07:44,440
I think it might be Joe.

1555
01:07:44,440 --> 01:07:45,440
I think it could be either.

1556
01:07:45,440 --> 01:07:46,440
Wait.

1557
01:07:46,440 --> 01:07:49,440
I think it legitimately could have been any one of us.

1558
01:07:49,440 --> 01:07:50,440
Honestly.

1559
01:07:50,440 --> 01:07:51,440
I think it's Joe.

1560
01:07:51,440 --> 01:07:52,440
Because they all sounded fake.

1561
01:07:52,440 --> 01:07:56,640
One of the four of us got their story on chat GPT so I just want to know who that was.

1562
01:07:56,640 --> 01:07:57,640
Yeah.

1563
01:07:57,640 --> 01:07:58,640
I'm dying to know.

1564
01:07:58,640 --> 01:08:02,240
Please let us know next week as we reveal who the fake was of this episode.

1565
01:08:02,240 --> 01:08:03,240
So.

1566
01:08:03,240 --> 01:08:04,240
Thanks for the love and support.

1567
01:08:04,240 --> 01:08:05,640
We'll see you guys next time.

1568
01:08:05,640 --> 01:08:07,440
Internet frenzy is on three.

1569
01:08:07,440 --> 01:08:09,440
One, two, three.

1570
01:08:09,440 --> 01:08:38,440
Bye.
