1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:16,000
From the unexplained to the mundane, come join us on a journey to the fringe.

2
00:00:16,000 --> 00:00:21,880
Hello and welcome to Journey to the Fringe, where dreams come true.

3
00:00:21,880 --> 00:00:25,060
Not exciting dreams, but dreams nonetheless.

4
00:00:25,060 --> 00:00:30,400
We are your hosts, Taylor and Chelsea, and today Chelsea has an episode for us, and I

5
00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,800
have no idea at all what it is, so I'm just gonna-

6
00:00:32,800 --> 00:00:36,400
That's not a new mail, that's just a part of every intro.

7
00:00:36,400 --> 00:00:37,400
Yeah.

8
00:00:37,400 --> 00:00:40,960
Today I had a hankering from some- dammit.

9
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:46,080
Today I had a hankering for some haunted objects, so haunted objects is what I get.

10
00:00:46,080 --> 00:00:51,280
If I were just a name off the top of my head, a few haunted objects, I would start with

11
00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:53,360
Annabelle, Rigidy and all.

12
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:58,160
I'd like to hear from you what you would name as the most haunted object you know.

13
00:00:58,160 --> 00:00:59,200
Yeah, it's definitely Dolls.

14
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:01,000
Dolls are the biggest one.

15
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:02,000
Yeah.

16
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,120
I don't know, do houses count as haunted objects?

17
00:01:05,120 --> 00:01:06,120
Yeeeeeeeah.

18
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,680
Is a house an object?

19
00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:09,680
I think so.

20
00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:10,840
Like it's tangible.

21
00:01:10,840 --> 00:01:15,880
I never did define what a haunted object was in this episode, so.

22
00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:16,880
I guess-

23
00:01:16,880 --> 00:01:21,960
That really reminds me too of- for- it was an episode you did with the Japanese idea

24
00:01:21,960 --> 00:01:24,600
that something comes to life after like a hundred years.

25
00:01:24,600 --> 00:01:25,600
Yeah.

26
00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,160
That's really what makes you think- but yeah Annabelle's probably the- sorry, to bring

27
00:01:29,160 --> 00:01:30,840
it right back to your actual episode.

28
00:01:30,840 --> 00:01:32,320
Annabelle, definitely Annabelle.

29
00:01:32,320 --> 00:01:34,840
I almost took the bait, I almost kept going on that one.

30
00:01:34,840 --> 00:01:39,800
Yeah, Annabelle, Robert the Haunted Doll, for sure, he's definitely really haunted that

31
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:41,600
I hear about.

32
00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:42,840
And lamps.

33
00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:45,960
The Jin love them, I guess, I think.

34
00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:49,440
And I think that just about does it for haunted objects I may know of.

35
00:01:49,440 --> 00:01:50,440
So forget about those.

36
00:01:50,440 --> 00:01:51,440
That was a short episode.

37
00:01:51,440 --> 00:01:52,440
No, okay, there's more.

38
00:01:52,440 --> 00:01:54,640
Okay, no, it's not gonna end, I guess.

39
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:55,640
I could keep going.

40
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:56,640
Okay.

41
00:01:56,640 --> 00:02:01,560
Here at Journey to the Fringe, we're here for the things that I don't know, and you don't

42
00:02:01,560 --> 00:02:04,320
know, and maybe you the listeners don't know.

43
00:02:04,320 --> 00:02:09,520
So down with the mainstream, we're going with the things that we want to find out about,

44
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:10,920
not that we already know about.

45
00:02:10,920 --> 00:02:16,680
So if there is one thing that during this research that I learned as a takeaway, it's

46
00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:21,120
that there are a handful of things that are just scientifically going to be more haunted

47
00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:22,360
than other things.

48
00:02:22,360 --> 00:02:29,800
So that's paintings, jewels, dolls, and mummies, which can also be a lot of those things.

49
00:02:29,800 --> 00:02:32,840
Yeah, a lot of those things I say are cursed than haunted.

50
00:02:32,840 --> 00:02:38,760
So in the Venn diagram of haunted versus cursed, you would definitely get some crossover in

51
00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:43,680
the like middle of the, I don't know what that's called scientifically, for sure, but

52
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:45,160
you get some cross.

53
00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:47,320
There might have been something else.

54
00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,640
Chairs.

55
00:02:48,640 --> 00:02:50,320
Chairs are fucking haunted too.

56
00:02:50,320 --> 00:02:53,800
Okay, so let's just talk about some haunted things you may or may not know.

57
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:57,080
You may or may not know that was in English.

58
00:02:57,080 --> 00:02:59,080
First up, the anguished man.

59
00:02:59,080 --> 00:03:01,600
It's a painting if you want to Google it.

60
00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,400
Take a look, but don't look too close.

61
00:03:03,400 --> 00:03:04,600
It might haunt you.

62
00:03:04,600 --> 00:03:05,600
That's not a print.

63
00:03:05,600 --> 00:03:10,520
Wait, sorry, are pictures of pictures haunted or is it just the original picture?

64
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:11,800
Probably just the original.

65
00:03:11,800 --> 00:03:14,600
It's spooky though, so just brace yourself.

66
00:03:14,600 --> 00:03:16,800
I'm just warning you, don't be startled.

67
00:03:16,800 --> 00:03:20,760
The anguished man is a painting created by an unknown artist.

68
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:25,680
I'm not sure how we finish off this portion with it being unknown, but here we are.

69
00:03:25,680 --> 00:03:31,080
The owner of the painting, Sean Robinson from Cumbria, England, claims to have inherited

70
00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,840
the painting from his grandmother, who told him that the artist who created the painting

71
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,440
had mixed his own blood into the paint and then died by suicide soon after finishing

72
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:42,440
the work.

73
00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:45,760
Quite the relic to pass down through generations.

74
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:49,840
The painting has been characterized as being supposedly haunted.

75
00:03:49,840 --> 00:03:50,840
Thank God.

76
00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:51,840
This is haunted.

77
00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,520
I was getting worried it might not be.

78
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:59,080
Robinson uploaded videos of the painting to his YouTube channel in 2010 and what he claims

79
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:04,360
to have heard crying and moaning noises in his house and to have once seen the figure

80
00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:05,680
of a man.

81
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,720
Maybe from the painting.

82
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:12,320
In 2016, rights were required to make a film based on the story of the painting and I'm

83
00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,800
not sure what film that is and that's all I have.

84
00:04:15,800 --> 00:04:17,600
What do you think of the painting?

85
00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:18,600
It is a creepy painting.

86
00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,200
I agree with that.

87
00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,320
Is he the only one who's apparently like said it's haunted?

88
00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:25,320
Yes.

89
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:30,720
Has anybody else like given like, oh no, I heard crying too when I was in like the vicinity

90
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:31,720
of it.

91
00:04:31,720 --> 00:04:32,720
No.

92
00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:33,720
Except for my research.

93
00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:34,720
Okay.

94
00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,960
And I'm seeing actually that they sold the rights to the movie in 2016.

95
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:38,960
What's the movie?

96
00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:41,560
So I don't think it's actually ever come out.

97
00:04:41,560 --> 00:04:43,960
Oh, it's just the rights were sold.

98
00:04:43,960 --> 00:04:45,920
Is this like you're unloading in Las Vegas.

99
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,640
He's just going to sell the race to everyone for money.

100
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:49,640
Maybe.

101
00:04:49,640 --> 00:04:53,760
Apparently there is also Wikipedia article on body fluids in art.

102
00:04:53,760 --> 00:04:54,760
Yes.

103
00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:55,760
Which I don't really want to read.

104
00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,840
I didn't want to click on it.

105
00:04:57,840 --> 00:04:58,840
Nope.

106
00:04:58,840 --> 00:05:03,520
I felt like this was as far as I wanted to go with it.

107
00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:04,840
Yeah, it is.

108
00:05:04,840 --> 00:05:05,840
It is creepy.

109
00:05:05,840 --> 00:05:08,440
It's almost like a skinless man screaming.

110
00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:11,280
He looks like he's on fire and his skin is melted off.

111
00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:12,280
Yeah.

112
00:05:12,280 --> 00:05:14,800
And he's screaming or his mouth is just open.

113
00:05:14,800 --> 00:05:17,800
It actually would be pretty easy to replicate to.

114
00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:19,280
It's not that high of quality.

115
00:05:19,280 --> 00:05:21,960
Oh no, there's blood in the paint.

116
00:05:21,960 --> 00:05:27,080
So yeah, I mean, if anybody just wants to sell movie rights, I think it's a very lucrative

117
00:05:27,080 --> 00:05:30,720
thing to look into just, you know, claiming a painting is haunted.

118
00:05:30,720 --> 00:05:31,720
Yeah.

119
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,720
Just make sure it's creepy.

120
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:36,920
You know, from this recording session today, I'm coming away with a lot of different career

121
00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:37,920
ideas.

122
00:05:37,920 --> 00:05:38,920
Yeah.

123
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:39,920
Okay.

124
00:05:39,920 --> 00:05:42,260
So let's talk about Carl Pruitt's grave.

125
00:05:42,260 --> 00:05:46,440
This haunted object comes with a warning and I'm just going to get it right out of the

126
00:05:46,440 --> 00:05:49,280
way first just in case I can save anyone a haunting.

127
00:05:49,280 --> 00:05:54,280
A warning is don't deface any tombstones that bear the name Carl Pruitt.

128
00:05:54,280 --> 00:05:58,800
So if you happen to be listening right now and you have your hand in the air ready to

129
00:05:58,800 --> 00:06:03,520
deface Carl Pruitt's tombstone, just put it down and hear me out.

130
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:08,520
And perhaps just move to a tombstone next to it if you really must deface a tombstone.

131
00:06:08,520 --> 00:06:12,480
If that's what you're out to do tonight, I'm going to tell you the story now.

132
00:06:12,480 --> 00:06:13,480
Listen and then act.

133
00:06:13,480 --> 00:06:14,480
Okay.

134
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:19,600
In Kentucky in the late 1930s, a carpenter named Carl Pruitt reportedly walked in on

135
00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:24,080
his wife and I don't know why this is in another language and I don't know what language

136
00:06:24,080 --> 00:06:25,080
it is.

137
00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,480
Play grante delicito delicto delicto.

138
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:31,720
Let me Google that with another man.

139
00:06:31,720 --> 00:06:34,960
I assume that means in dispose.

140
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:39,480
I found another source that says Carl Pruitt returned home from work in 1938 to find his

141
00:06:39,480 --> 00:06:41,400
wife in bed with another man.

142
00:06:41,400 --> 00:06:42,400
Okay.

143
00:06:42,400 --> 00:06:46,520
In play grant, delicto is Latin for in blazing offense.

144
00:06:46,520 --> 00:06:47,520
Huh.

145
00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,080
Well, that's very fancy.

146
00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:50,320
With another man.

147
00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:51,320
Okay.

148
00:06:51,320 --> 00:06:52,320
Wife.

149
00:06:52,320 --> 00:06:56,840
Pruitt strangled her to death with a chain before taking his own life.

150
00:06:56,840 --> 00:07:02,360
After he was buried far from his wife, some kids are said to have noticed what looked

151
00:07:02,360 --> 00:07:05,280
like the outline of a chain on Pruitt's tombstone.

152
00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:06,280
How did he die?

153
00:07:06,280 --> 00:07:07,280
I don't know.

154
00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:08,280
Was he hanged?

155
00:07:08,280 --> 00:07:09,920
Oh, he took his own life.

156
00:07:09,920 --> 00:07:11,480
Sorry, that was just me.

157
00:07:11,480 --> 00:07:12,480
Yeah.

158
00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:13,480
Okay.

159
00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:18,640
One kid chucked a rock at it only to be strangled to death on his ride home when his bicycle

160
00:07:18,640 --> 00:07:22,640
chain got dislodged from its track and wrapped around his neck.

161
00:07:22,640 --> 00:07:25,160
How the hell does that happen?

162
00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:29,880
I want to see the, oh, what's the name of that movie?

163
00:07:29,880 --> 00:07:33,480
The horror series where it's like death is coming for them because they were on that

164
00:07:33,480 --> 00:07:36,160
airplane that they should have died in.

165
00:07:36,160 --> 00:07:37,160
Final destination.

166
00:07:37,160 --> 00:07:38,160
Yeah.

167
00:07:38,160 --> 00:07:39,160
Yeah.

168
00:07:39,160 --> 00:07:40,160
I would love to see.

169
00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:41,160
That is a final destination.

170
00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:42,160
Yeah.

171
00:07:42,160 --> 00:07:46,320
After the boys mom took an axe to the tombstone.

172
00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:48,400
This is really escalating.

173
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:55,240
She ended up strangled by her clothesline and the tombstone appeared mysteriously undamaged.

174
00:07:55,240 --> 00:08:01,560
A farmer who shot at the tombstone accidentally spooked his horse and got strangled by the

175
00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:02,840
rains.

176
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:05,680
You might be starting to sense a theme here.

177
00:08:05,680 --> 00:08:10,600
Anyone who messes with Pruitt's final resting place died of strangulation.

178
00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:12,000
That was Carl's middle name.

179
00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:16,920
Carl, I'll strangle you from beyond the grain Pruitt and it rings true to this day.

180
00:08:16,920 --> 00:08:19,360
I don't know how they picked that middle name for him, but.

181
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:21,520
I wonder what they put on the tombstone.

182
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:24,720
It probably says deface me or something.

183
00:08:24,720 --> 00:08:25,720
Yeah.

184
00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:27,960
It just taught him something.

185
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:28,960
Do it.

186
00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:33,800
According to legend Pruitt's vengeful spirit claimed a couple more victims before the cemetery

187
00:08:33,800 --> 00:08:37,360
was demolished by strip miners in the late 1950s.

188
00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:41,560
That also says to me that something probably happened to those miners, but I guess we'll

189
00:08:41,560 --> 00:08:42,560
never know.

190
00:08:42,560 --> 00:08:45,640
That's the mystery of Carl Pruitt.

191
00:08:45,640 --> 00:08:48,960
I'm kind of surprised this one didn't have its rights sold.

192
00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:52,920
I feel it would be hard to make it into a horror movie, but nonetheless.

193
00:08:52,920 --> 00:08:55,280
No, it would be a new final destiny.

194
00:08:55,280 --> 00:09:01,360
Anyhow, anyone listening that is interested in this movie, turn you to the fringe at gmail.com.

195
00:09:01,360 --> 00:09:03,720
We will sell you the rights.

196
00:09:03,720 --> 00:09:04,720
Exclusive rights.

197
00:09:04,720 --> 00:09:08,320
We have the exclusive rights apparently now.

198
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,000
We definitely came up with this.

199
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:12,080
Thomas Busby's chair.

200
00:09:12,080 --> 00:09:18,120
Thomas Busby was arrested, tried and condemned to death after he murdered his father-in-law

201
00:09:18,120 --> 00:09:23,400
Daniel Addie in 1702 in North Yorkshire, England.

202
00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:29,480
Oddie and Busby were running a coin counterfeiting business as well as other criminal enterprises,

203
00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:34,080
and they argued about the business which ended with Busby killing Oddie.

204
00:09:34,080 --> 00:09:40,920
One variation of the story has Busby cursing the chair, wilson his way to execution.

205
00:09:40,920 --> 00:09:45,040
Whereas another says that he was drunk in the chair when he was arrested and cursed

206
00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,040
it then.

207
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:50,800
In all, Busby was quoted as say, Busby, I missed the B.

208
00:09:50,800 --> 00:09:55,200
Quote, may death come to anyone who dares sit in my chair.

209
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:59,400
I feel like I wouldn't curse a chair, I'd wanna curse something that's never gonna

210
00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,400
go away.

211
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,440
Yeah, chairs are gonna go away pretty quick.

212
00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,440
Comparing to the tombstone.

213
00:10:04,440 --> 00:10:06,320
Of course, the tombstone's not there anymore.

214
00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,720
Her life is limited, very limited.

215
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:15,520
Busby was gibbeted at Sand Hut Crossroads beside an inn which later had its name changed

216
00:10:15,520 --> 00:10:17,400
to the Busby Stoop Inn.

217
00:10:17,400 --> 00:10:24,920
A site of the execution opposite the pub on the A61 and A167 crossroads, now a roundabout,

218
00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:27,520
was said to be haunted by Busby's ghost.

219
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:34,280
The chair is said to have remained in use for centuries at the Busby Stoop Inn near

220
00:10:34,280 --> 00:10:35,280
Thurst.

221
00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:39,640
Due to the many deaths later attributed to people sitting in the chair, the landlord

222
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:43,480
donated it to the Thurst Museum in 1978.

223
00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:48,960
The museum also displays a plaque with the stories of the chair's supposed victims.

224
00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:53,840
After Busby's death, multiple reports arose of people dying or meeting some other tragedy

225
00:10:53,840 --> 00:10:56,120
after sitting in the Thurst chair.

226
00:10:56,120 --> 00:11:01,160
One man was found hanging outside the Busby Stoop Inn after sitting in the chair and during

227
00:11:01,160 --> 00:11:07,120
the Second World War, Canadian airmen from the nearby base at Skipton on Swale went

228
00:11:07,120 --> 00:11:11,640
to the pub and those who sat in the chair never returned from bombing missions over

229
00:11:11,640 --> 00:11:12,880
mainland Europe.

230
00:11:12,880 --> 00:11:18,520
The chair now hangs from a wall in England's Thurst Museum so that no one can accidentally

231
00:11:18,520 --> 00:11:20,760
curse themselves by sitting in it.

232
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:22,040
Which I think I already said.

233
00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:27,200
See, if somebody can strangle themselves with a chain riding a bike home, somebody can

234
00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:28,200
sit in that chair.

235
00:11:28,200 --> 00:11:30,080
Oh yeah, it can be done.

236
00:11:30,080 --> 00:11:32,360
I mean humans are something.

237
00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,520
They are something.

238
00:11:35,520 --> 00:11:37,960
The hand-resist him painting.

239
00:11:37,960 --> 00:11:38,960
This one's creepy.

240
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:39,960
Hand-resist him?

241
00:11:39,960 --> 00:11:43,200
Actually, I think I should look at it because I don't think I have.

242
00:11:43,200 --> 00:11:46,280
The hands-resist him painting.

243
00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:47,280
It's pretty creepy actually.

244
00:11:47,280 --> 00:11:48,280
Isn't it creepy?

245
00:11:48,280 --> 00:11:50,600
I don't know what it is.

246
00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:52,160
Maybe it's that kid's big forehead.

247
00:11:52,160 --> 00:11:53,160
The eyes.

248
00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:54,160
Oh, I thought it was the forehead.

249
00:11:54,160 --> 00:11:55,640
Could be the forehead.

250
00:11:55,640 --> 00:12:01,480
A sullen boy with sightless eyes stands in front of a door next to a creepy girl doll with

251
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:05,600
a vaguely ventriloquist smile and jointed limbs.

252
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:10,720
Between them, several pairs of childish hands are pressed against the glass of the door.

253
00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:15,960
Painted by artist Bill Stoneham, a hands-resist him is considered one of the world's most

254
00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:17,720
haunted artworks.

255
00:12:17,720 --> 00:12:23,400
In 2000, a California couple put the eerie picture up for sale on an online auction site

256
00:12:23,400 --> 00:12:25,720
with a warning to potential buyers.

257
00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:30,840
Apparently, come nightfall, the figures in the painting would move or disappear or the

258
00:12:30,840 --> 00:12:35,280
odd-looking boy would actually enter the room where the painting hung.

259
00:12:35,280 --> 00:12:39,640
People who viewed the painting complained of feeling sick or weak as if unseen hands

260
00:12:39,640 --> 00:12:41,200
were grabbing them.

261
00:12:41,200 --> 00:12:45,760
According to Stoneham, the painting is based on the childhood photograph of himself at

262
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:46,800
age 5.

263
00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:50,440
The doorway symbolizes a threshold between worlds.

264
00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:54,840
The dolls act as his guide through this world in between waking and dreaming.

265
00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:57,400
The hands represent other lives.

266
00:12:57,400 --> 00:13:02,480
While Stoneham was surprised by all of the supernatural speculation surrounding the painting,

267
00:13:02,480 --> 00:13:07,360
he did concede that both the owner of the first gallery to ever show the hands resist

268
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:12,600
him and the art critic who reviewed it both died within one year first seeing the painting.

269
00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,080
It is a creepy painting, just like the first one.

270
00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:16,600
They are there though in the painting.

271
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:20,840
I just feel like you have ulterior motives if you're selling something, by the way,

272
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:21,840
it's haunted.

273
00:13:21,840 --> 00:13:24,840
But sometimes it makes it go for more money.

274
00:13:24,840 --> 00:13:26,560
I know, that's the ulterior motive.

275
00:13:26,560 --> 00:13:27,560
Oh.

276
00:13:27,560 --> 00:13:28,560
You're trying to.

277
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:29,560
Right, ulterior motive you said.

278
00:13:29,560 --> 00:13:32,640
Then yes, I agree.

279
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:36,400
I just had to say the ulterior motive out loud.

280
00:13:36,400 --> 00:13:37,400
Next one.

281
00:13:37,400 --> 00:13:38,400
Utsi, the Iceman?

282
00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:39,400
Have you heard of Utsi?

283
00:13:39,400 --> 00:13:40,400
No.

284
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,400
I assume that's how you say it.

285
00:13:41,400 --> 00:13:42,400
Utsi.

286
00:13:42,400 --> 00:13:44,400
Oh yeah, the um.

287
00:13:44,400 --> 00:13:45,400
The Iceman.

288
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:46,880
Yeah, I know the Iceman.

289
00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:47,880
Yes.

290
00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:48,880
Yeah.

291
00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:49,880
Apparently he's haunted.

292
00:13:49,880 --> 00:13:50,880
I did know that one.

293
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:51,880
Yeah, he's haunted.

294
00:13:51,880 --> 00:13:58,080
Since the discovery of this perfectly preserved Ice Age warrior in 1991, at least seven deaths

295
00:13:58,080 --> 00:14:00,400
have been attributed to the curse of Utsi.

296
00:14:00,400 --> 00:14:03,000
How many deaths would you attribute to a curse?

297
00:14:03,000 --> 00:14:04,000
At least seven?

298
00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:05,000
Three?

299
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:06,160
No, three is too little.

300
00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:07,800
I thought seven was a little.

301
00:14:07,800 --> 00:14:08,800
Sorry, what?

302
00:14:08,800 --> 00:14:11,160
I think that was enough to be a curse.

303
00:14:11,160 --> 00:14:12,160
Seven deaths.

304
00:14:12,160 --> 00:14:17,120
Seven, yeah, like that's more than the curse of King Tut's tomb or whatever.

305
00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,120
Two?

306
00:14:18,120 --> 00:14:19,600
I think it's just more than one.

307
00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:20,600
Really?

308
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:21,600
Okay.

309
00:14:21,600 --> 00:14:22,600
I mean, I wouldn't be impressed by two.

310
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,040
I'd be like, the curse isn't that strong.

311
00:14:26,040 --> 00:14:27,760
I'd take a risk on it.

312
00:14:27,760 --> 00:14:28,760
Yeah.

313
00:14:28,760 --> 00:14:32,000
I mean, I think the threshold is going to change from person to person.

314
00:14:32,000 --> 00:14:33,000
That's true.

315
00:14:33,000 --> 00:14:35,160
I don't even think it has to kill anybody.

316
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:36,160
It could just be creepy.

317
00:14:36,160 --> 00:14:39,040
That's a good question for our listeners on Spotify.

318
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,800
What is the threshold of curse?

319
00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:42,680
Okay, let's continue on.

320
00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:44,560
Curious minds, they wander.

321
00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:49,520
Some claim the warrior spirit seeks revenge for being disturbed after being encased in

322
00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,680
ice for thousands of years.

323
00:14:51,680 --> 00:14:56,480
I mean, there's probably a lot still out there that might be cursed in that case.

324
00:14:56,480 --> 00:15:02,360
And woolly mammoth, the hiker who discovered Utsi, the team who took him from his icy grave

325
00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:07,120
and the reporter who covered the story are some of the alleged victims of the Iceman's

326
00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,120
curse.

327
00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:14,000
Scientist Conrad Spindler, a leading expert on Utsi, is also considered a victim since

328
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:18,440
he perished shortly after joking about the curse and calling it rubbish.

329
00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:19,440
Oh, shit.

330
00:15:19,440 --> 00:15:21,240
You shouldn't call it curse rubbish.

331
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:23,240
That's just the dumbest thing to call a curse.

332
00:15:23,240 --> 00:15:24,240
Yeah, it's true.

333
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:26,640
I didn't call it rubbish just to put it out there.

334
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,680
It's rewind and find out what is disturbing Utsi.

335
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:35,840
In 1991, hikers found a mummified body protruding from a glacier in the Uts-

336
00:15:35,840 --> 00:15:39,560
Elps, which straddled the border of Austria and Italy.

337
00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:45,600
It turned out to be a middle-aged man murdered by an arrow over 5,000 years ago.

338
00:15:45,600 --> 00:15:50,160
People started calling him Utsi the Iceman and he pretty much rocked the world of prehistoric

339
00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:51,160
research.

340
00:15:51,160 --> 00:15:58,760
14 years later, Australian molecular archaeologist Thomas Loy died at the age of 63 of natural

341
00:15:58,760 --> 00:15:59,760
causes.

342
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:01,360
He had studied Utsi closely.

343
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:02,360
Oh, good.

344
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:04,600
I was wondering how this was related to a haunting.

345
00:16:04,600 --> 00:16:07,320
I'm glad I got that.

346
00:16:07,320 --> 00:16:08,320
Just some guy.

347
00:16:08,320 --> 00:16:09,320
Yeah.

348
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:10,320
Yeah.

349
00:16:10,320 --> 00:16:15,880
In fact, it was Loy who found traces of blood from several other people on Utsi and claimed

350
00:16:15,880 --> 00:16:19,040
that he likely died after a skirmish.

351
00:16:19,040 --> 00:16:20,040
That's sad.

352
00:16:20,040 --> 00:16:22,760
Have you seen artist renditions of Utsi?

353
00:16:22,760 --> 00:16:25,400
No, I'm going to Google it while I look at the...

354
00:16:25,400 --> 00:16:27,240
He looks like a real redneck.

355
00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:28,240
Artist?

356
00:16:28,240 --> 00:16:29,680
Oh, yes I have.

357
00:16:29,680 --> 00:16:31,400
Now that you say that, I have.

358
00:16:31,400 --> 00:16:36,400
To some people, Loy's connection to the Iceman was interesting, if unremarkable, sentenced

359
00:16:36,400 --> 00:16:37,840
to his obituary.

360
00:16:37,840 --> 00:16:42,640
To others, it was yet more evidence that the corpse carried a fatal curse.

361
00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:47,400
The trouble with Utsi the Iceman began the year after he was discovered when 64-year-old

362
00:16:47,400 --> 00:16:51,440
forensic pathologist Reiner Henn perished in a car accident.

363
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:55,960
Henn had moved the remains into a body bag and was actually en route to give a lecture

364
00:16:55,960 --> 00:16:58,300
on the Iceman when he died.

365
00:16:58,300 --> 00:17:02,540
Not long after that tragedy, mountain climber Kurt Fritz died in Avalanche.

366
00:17:02,540 --> 00:17:06,880
He had arranged the helicopter trip to retrieve Utsi from the mountain.

367
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,960
Then it said that Reiner Hutz, who captured footage of the retrieval, passed away from

368
00:17:10,960 --> 00:17:13,440
a brain tumor at the age of 47.

369
00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:15,640
Oh, yeah, look at Utsi.

370
00:17:15,640 --> 00:17:17,640
He's...what?

371
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:18,640
Something.

372
00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:21,840
I'm just curious, because this is so long ago we're never going to get an answer as to

373
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:27,760
how Utsi cursed, but I'm curious to like what he did to curse.

374
00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:29,080
He did to curse.

375
00:17:29,080 --> 00:17:34,320
That sounds like a weird way to phrase it, but like, why is he cursed?

376
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,440
Because he was trapped in the cave for so long.

377
00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:37,440
Is the theory.

378
00:17:37,440 --> 00:17:42,440
He hated it, but he was then released, so that doesn't make sense.

379
00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:43,440
No.

380
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:45,800
He was released because he was disturbed and he liked it.

381
00:17:45,800 --> 00:17:46,800
Maybe he did.

382
00:17:46,800 --> 00:17:49,000
He is the Iceman after all.

383
00:17:49,000 --> 00:17:50,000
He doesn't like being hot.

384
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:51,000
He's not Iceman anymore.

385
00:17:51,000 --> 00:17:52,000
Yeah.

386
00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:53,000
He doesn't like it.

387
00:17:53,000 --> 00:17:55,480
They kind of cool him off.

388
00:17:55,480 --> 00:18:01,720
The Iceman claimed three more lives in quick succession between 2004 and 2005.

389
00:18:01,720 --> 00:18:06,800
First Helmut Simon, one of the hikers who discovered Utsi died after falling 300 feet

390
00:18:06,800 --> 00:18:07,880
down a mountain.

391
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:13,120
The archaeologist Conrad Spindler, one of Utsi's chief researchers, died of complications

392
00:18:13,120 --> 00:18:15,080
from multiple sclerosis.

393
00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,480
I mean, that's a stretch.

394
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:24,280
I think some curses have to remember that everybody's going to die.

395
00:18:24,280 --> 00:18:27,280
This curse killed him of old age.

396
00:18:27,280 --> 00:18:28,280
We talked about this.

397
00:18:28,280 --> 00:18:30,200
We've done an episode on curses.

398
00:18:30,200 --> 00:18:33,160
It was the episode called, I had to look at it.

399
00:18:33,160 --> 00:18:34,160
This episode is cursed.

400
00:18:34,160 --> 00:18:35,160
This episode is cursed.

401
00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:36,160
Don't listen to me.

402
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:37,720
It was a Halloween episode.

403
00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:44,440
So all I've pictured the entire time of this, like reading Utsi is the mummy and Utsi slowly

404
00:18:44,440 --> 00:18:47,160
killing people to gain his body back.

405
00:18:47,160 --> 00:18:51,360
And imagine literally no other scenario that would make sense.

406
00:18:51,360 --> 00:18:54,000
I mean, unless he was trying to avenge himself.

407
00:18:54,000 --> 00:18:59,200
Shami felt that he had to do that so many years later, but that's my scenario that's

408
00:18:59,200 --> 00:19:00,840
going on with this.

409
00:19:00,840 --> 00:19:08,120
Like he is just killing people so that he can become a whole man again to do evil things.

410
00:19:08,120 --> 00:19:10,720
But I found, I thought they found him whole.

411
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:11,720
Mummy?

412
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:16,080
Well, no, like, yeah, he's mummified, but he wants to be a real person again.

413
00:19:16,080 --> 00:19:17,080
Okay.

414
00:19:17,080 --> 00:19:18,080
Right?

415
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:20,320
Wasn't the mummy was a mummy?

416
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:22,360
And then he came back.

417
00:19:22,360 --> 00:19:27,800
But part of it is, is with a mummy, they take out parts before they put it in the sarcophagus.

418
00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:29,360
They didn't do that with Utsi.

419
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:30,880
I don't think they did that with Utsi.

420
00:19:30,880 --> 00:19:32,520
I'm pretty sure he's just a whole guy.

421
00:19:32,520 --> 00:19:37,800
I do like to picture this guy that the artist rendition of him just like shows up around

422
00:19:37,800 --> 00:19:43,000
where these people are and like pushes them off mountains and like jumps out and scares

423
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,680
them into a fatal car accident.

424
00:19:44,680 --> 00:19:47,000
I mean, I would be startled if I saw this guy.

425
00:19:47,000 --> 00:19:49,520
This guy looks like Matt.

426
00:19:49,520 --> 00:19:53,720
Just the horror movies that can be coming from the things we're talking about today

427
00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:56,280
would be genre defining journey.

428
00:19:56,280 --> 00:19:57,600
Like they'd be just sorry.

429
00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:03,840
I said that with an accent journey to the fridge and gmail.com or your movie horror

430
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:05,080
rights.

431
00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,840
We may sell multiple or just ideas.

432
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:08,840
We got lots of them.

433
00:20:08,840 --> 00:20:09,840
Yeah.

434
00:20:09,840 --> 00:20:11,360
Oh, we'll give you ideas.

435
00:20:11,360 --> 00:20:17,440
Anyhow, today Utsi can be visited in person in Italy's South Tyrol Museum of Archaeologists.

436
00:20:17,440 --> 00:20:25,320
If you dare, all archaeology, if you dare, has anybody who seen him like just as a tourist

437
00:20:25,320 --> 00:20:33,000
died, been attributed, I guess, he may have a full human form and it could just have a

438
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:35,080
doll in the museum.

439
00:20:35,080 --> 00:20:38,280
These are all just ideas for movies.

440
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:45,720
If you must know, and I should shut up because we could sell.

441
00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:47,680
We're just giving him a way.

442
00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:48,680
Yeah.

443
00:20:48,680 --> 00:20:49,680
Remember, you got to pay us.

444
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:50,680
Yeah.

445
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:55,520
We're just sending our money, turning to the fridge and gmail.com.

446
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,400
Next movie idea, the Bronze Lady statue.

447
00:20:58,400 --> 00:21:01,200
Have you heard of the legend of Sleepy Hollow?

448
00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,000
No, not that one.

449
00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:08,280
What about Bronze Lady, who's actually much easier to find than the headless horseman?

450
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:13,520
She's a bronze statue located in New York's Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, home to the grave

451
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:21,440
of Washington Irving himself, officially named Braculement or Grief.

452
00:21:21,440 --> 00:21:27,240
A bronze lady was commissioned by the widow of Civil War General Samuel M. Thomas after

453
00:21:27,240 --> 00:21:29,080
he died in 1903.

454
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:35,040
As the story goes, Thomas's widow was unhappy with the statue because its expression seemed

455
00:21:35,040 --> 00:21:36,240
too morose.

456
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,640
So sculptor Andrew O'Connor Jr. redid it for her.

457
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:44,480
But instead of handing over the new head, he called it a monstrosity and shattered it

458
00:21:44,480 --> 00:21:45,480
in front of her.

459
00:21:45,480 --> 00:21:50,420
The disgruntled Mrs. Thomas installed the original figure to watch over her late husband's

460
00:21:50,420 --> 00:21:54,960
tomb anyway, and in the following years, night time visitors to the cemetery claimed

461
00:21:54,960 --> 00:21:59,000
to have heard quiet sobs coming from the Bronze Lady.

462
00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:03,360
Supristicians got embellished and passed down by neighborhood kids through the 20th century.

463
00:22:03,360 --> 00:22:09,320
Anthony J. Marmo, who grew up there in the 1970s, shared his childhood memories with

464
00:22:09,320 --> 00:22:11,040
the New York Times in 2000.

465
00:22:11,040 --> 00:22:16,200
Well, if you knock on the door of the general's tomb and look through a keyhole, it was said

466
00:22:16,200 --> 00:22:18,480
that you would have a bad dream that night.

467
00:22:18,480 --> 00:22:20,120
Of course, that always worked.

468
00:22:20,120 --> 00:22:24,320
There was another one where, if you slapped her in the face, sat in her lap and spit in

469
00:22:24,320 --> 00:22:28,280
her eye, she would haunt you for the rest of your life, and there was always one brave

470
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:29,640
kid who did it.

471
00:22:29,640 --> 00:22:30,640
End quote.

472
00:22:30,640 --> 00:22:34,000
Not sure if they're haunted or not.

473
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:35,760
Be announced.

474
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:41,720
The Myrtles Plantation Mirror Known as one of America's most haunted homes

475
00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:49,480
and the alleged site of as many as 10 murders, this antebellum mansion in St. Francisville,

476
00:22:49,480 --> 00:22:52,920
Louisiana also boasts a highly mysterious mirror.

477
00:22:52,920 --> 00:22:57,400
Purchased by the homeowners sometime three or four decades ago, the mirror is said to

478
00:22:57,400 --> 00:23:02,520
contain the ghosts of Sarah Woodruff, the original mistress of the house and her children.

479
00:23:02,520 --> 00:23:07,000
The custom dictates that mirrors should be covered when someone dies so that the soul

480
00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:11,040
of the deceased doesn't get caught in the mirror instead of ascending to heaven.

481
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,600
Apparently, it's Sarah's death, the mourners abandoned tradition.

482
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:19,600
Now, visitors at Myrtles Plantation have reported seeing handprints materialize in the

483
00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,840
mirror and long drip mark, which no amount of cleaning can remove.

484
00:23:23,840 --> 00:23:24,840
That one was short and sweet.

485
00:23:24,840 --> 00:23:25,840
That's also a house, isn't it?

486
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:26,840
Or is it the mirror?

487
00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:29,120
It is also a haunted house, yes.

488
00:23:29,120 --> 00:23:30,120
Okay.

489
00:23:30,120 --> 00:23:31,120
So that answers that question.

490
00:23:31,120 --> 00:23:32,120
Houses are objects.

491
00:23:32,120 --> 00:23:33,120
Yeah.

492
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:37,880
It also answers that the mirrors haunted, but also there are 10 murders in the house

493
00:23:37,880 --> 00:23:43,280
that were seemingly unrelated to the mirror at all and just offhandedly mentioned.

494
00:23:43,280 --> 00:23:44,280
So the plantation...

495
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,960
We don't need to focus too much on that.

496
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:47,960
Yeah, exactly.

497
00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:51,200
It's not a murder episode, it's a cursor haunted episode.

498
00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:52,200
Exactly.

499
00:23:52,200 --> 00:23:54,440
With some murders happening in the background.

500
00:23:54,440 --> 00:23:55,440
Okay.

501
00:23:55,440 --> 00:23:58,400
Last but not least, the chairs of Bellcourt Castle.

502
00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:03,040
Bellcourt Castle is located on Bellevue Avenue in Newport, Rhode Island.

503
00:24:03,040 --> 00:24:07,960
It is a private property and offers no accommodations, but you can visit the castle as well as the

504
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:10,840
garden, which is truly magnificent.

505
00:24:10,840 --> 00:24:13,280
The castle also boasts a museum.

506
00:24:13,280 --> 00:24:16,240
You can book a guided tour for those who aren't afraid of ghosts.

507
00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:17,280
They have ghost tours.

508
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:23,400
The owner of the castle, Mrs. Harley Tinney, organizes candlelit guided tours at night

509
00:24:23,400 --> 00:24:24,480
for the ghosts.

510
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:27,600
To see ghosts, not have ghosts join a tour.

511
00:24:27,600 --> 00:24:29,120
They don't have money.

512
00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:30,680
They don't have money, it's not worth it.

513
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:31,680
They do not.

514
00:24:31,680 --> 00:24:35,560
The construction of the building, which would later be called Bellcourt Castle, started

515
00:24:35,560 --> 00:24:40,600
1891 and finished in 1894, although the main bulk of the construction took place during

516
00:24:40,600 --> 00:24:42,040
these four years.

517
00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:45,560
Further building and architectural bits were added through the years.

518
00:24:45,560 --> 00:24:49,720
In fact, Bellcourt Castle went through quite a few changes over the last centuries and

519
00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:53,160
these architectural changes occurred with different owners.

520
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,760
The building is a mix of many different European styles, but Bellcourt Castle's architecture

521
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:03,560
is strongly influenced by French Renaissance and its interior is mainly of Gothic style.

522
00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:07,960
There are 60 rooms in total and the castle is 50,000 square feet.

523
00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,000
Many different families that bought and occupied and sold the castle, the current owners of

524
00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:16,800
the castle, the tinnies who still own the castle, gave it the name Bellcourt.

525
00:25:16,800 --> 00:25:22,320
Bellcourt Castle is well known for its paranormal activity and has been featured in many TV shows.

526
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:24,440
The latest being Ghost Hunters.

527
00:25:24,440 --> 00:25:29,160
Those interested in ghosts and other unexplained paranormal activities will be spoiled and

528
00:25:29,160 --> 00:25:31,320
can expect chills down their spine.

529
00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:36,320
The ballroom is the most feared room of the castle since this is where most of the haunting

530
00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:38,480
and paranormal activity takes place.

531
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:43,000
The current and former owners, as well as visitors and tour guides have reported feeling

532
00:25:43,000 --> 00:25:48,160
a distinct presence standing behind them and most particularly right behind their shoulder.

533
00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,880
I mean I would classify that as behind.

534
00:25:50,880 --> 00:25:56,120
However, none of them have been able to identify whether it's a man or a woman adulterate child.

535
00:25:56,120 --> 00:26:00,400
These chilling accounts have been investigated by famous paranormal investigators but no

536
00:26:00,400 --> 00:26:05,800
explanation has been given and the strange atmosphere can be felt seconds after you entered

537
00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:07,360
this large room.

538
00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:09,400
This is reminding me of the haunted mansion.

539
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,000
Like everyone dancing in there?

540
00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:12,000
No one said dancing.

541
00:26:12,000 --> 00:26:13,000
I'm just curious.

542
00:26:13,000 --> 00:26:15,920
So everybody feels this or certain people?

543
00:26:15,920 --> 00:26:17,680
Apparently everyone.

544
00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:19,080
I mean it is pretty haunted.

545
00:26:19,080 --> 00:26:21,080
It's a pretty high statistic.

546
00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:22,080
100% yeah.

547
00:26:22,080 --> 00:26:27,800
Objects flying across the room as well as furniture moving are also very common especially in

548
00:26:27,800 --> 00:26:31,680
the ballroom and if you are lucky enough you may hear footsteps around the room and doors

549
00:26:31,680 --> 00:26:33,000
opening and shutting on there.

550
00:26:33,000 --> 00:26:34,280
Okay it's not everybody.

551
00:26:34,280 --> 00:26:36,680
This is seriously reminding me of the haunted mansion.

552
00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:41,000
Like in most haunted houses the temperature fluctuates and the ballroom can become very

553
00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:42,000
cold.

554
00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:45,680
All of a sudden people have also reported feeling physically sick and even nauseous after

555
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:48,040
spending a few seconds in the room.

556
00:26:48,040 --> 00:26:53,360
As I've mentioned getting this sudden urge of uncontrollable hatred it could also be

557
00:26:53,360 --> 00:26:55,080
whoever you're on the tour with.

558
00:26:55,080 --> 00:26:57,200
Does anybody check the air in this castle?

559
00:26:57,200 --> 00:26:58,200
No.

560
00:26:58,200 --> 00:26:59,200
I don't know for sure.

561
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:00,200
That's just me saying no.

562
00:27:00,200 --> 00:27:03,600
I just feel like there could be something off with the air.

563
00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:11,520
So anyway what is haunted in this castle is the like what this object is is the salt chairs

564
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:17,800
and they're one of the most baffling and fascinating paranormal activities present at the castle.

565
00:27:17,800 --> 00:27:20,920
Only used by royalty to distribute salt.

566
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,200
I don't get the relation.

567
00:27:23,200 --> 00:27:25,600
Which was a very valuable commodity at the time.

568
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:27,960
The salt was hidden inside the- oh here we go.

569
00:27:27,960 --> 00:27:29,200
I just had to keep reading.

570
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:34,240
As always the salt was hidden inside the chairs and the kings or rulers would be seated on

571
00:27:34,240 --> 00:27:36,320
them to make sure they wouldn't disappear.

572
00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,960
Do you feel like having a little experience?

573
00:27:38,960 --> 00:27:43,920
If so when you visit the castle try to sit on one of the chairs and see what happens.

574
00:27:43,920 --> 00:27:47,880
Until you will be one of those who won't be able to sit and instead you will feel someone

575
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:49,040
pushing you.

576
00:27:49,040 --> 00:27:53,120
Some visitors claim to have been violently ejected from the chairs and it appears that

577
00:27:53,120 --> 00:27:55,120
only men can sit on them.

578
00:27:55,120 --> 00:28:00,400
So that's what this one is about at the the the chairs the salt chairs.

579
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:04,920
I had no idea that salt chairs were a thing and yet you can still buy them.

580
00:28:04,920 --> 00:28:06,760
That's at least the style apparently.

581
00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:07,760
Yeah.

582
00:28:07,760 --> 00:28:10,680
If you type in salt chair you'll know exactly that kind of chair.

583
00:28:10,680 --> 00:28:16,160
Only another spooky phenomenon seems to have happened to a monkey bell court castle while

584
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:19,000
it's only the statue of the monk wearing an ancient robe.

585
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,760
The statue is said to be moving and changing position.

586
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:26,720
Once again no explanation either can be given to the agonizing voices heard in and around

587
00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:28,520
the ballroom and the corridors.

588
00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:32,640
The voices although frightening seem to be warning the visitors but of what?

589
00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,880
It remains a mystery but only you can solve.

590
00:28:35,880 --> 00:28:37,880
I just added that last part.

591
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:38,880
Salt chair.

592
00:28:38,880 --> 00:28:39,880
What?

593
00:28:39,880 --> 00:28:43,800
Wait this cannot be right this is just an ordinary kitchen chair.

594
00:28:43,800 --> 00:28:44,800
I know.

595
00:28:44,800 --> 00:28:47,800
Okay bell court castle.

596
00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,320
Nothing comes up with that either.

597
00:28:50,320 --> 00:28:54,160
I mean I assume they're there but cannot confirm.

598
00:28:54,160 --> 00:28:57,320
Anyhow this is my episode.

599
00:28:57,320 --> 00:28:58,960
I liked it.

600
00:28:58,960 --> 00:29:04,520
And yeah if you need any more ideas for horror movies that will redefine the genre I think

601
00:29:04,520 --> 00:29:05,840
you need to come to us.

602
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:07,960
We have an endless supply.

603
00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:08,960
Yeah.

604
00:29:08,960 --> 00:29:12,720
Plus if you needed a cryptid to be like a horror person we know them.

605
00:29:12,720 --> 00:29:15,320
We can tell you have you heard of veggie man?

606
00:29:15,320 --> 00:29:18,200
Yeah but a different one does not veggie man.

607
00:29:18,200 --> 00:29:19,200
We got way more.

608
00:29:19,200 --> 00:29:20,720
Way more better ones.

609
00:29:20,720 --> 00:29:21,720
Also.

610
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:26,040
Yeah we keep actually just so everybody knows we actually keep the best ones for us to

611
00:29:26,040 --> 00:29:27,040
sell.

612
00:29:27,040 --> 00:29:32,880
Yeah it's just for us privately before we start recording we just say the names and laugh

613
00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,520
and laugh because they're so good.

614
00:29:35,520 --> 00:29:39,040
Just as well never know unless we get money from it.

615
00:29:39,040 --> 00:29:41,640
And it's a super evil laugh too.

616
00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:44,800
I can't even do it on this podcast for you.

617
00:29:44,800 --> 00:29:50,000
