Speaker 1 (00:00):
I have got some ghost stories for you.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
I'm hearing these voices, but there's nobody else around.
Speaker 1 (00:07):
I don't like the skeleton man. He's so mean to me,
and he bites me at night.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
And suddenly this stool, completely of its own volition, slid
good to maybe three feet out into the center of
the bar.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
He walks towards the ocean and he gets through the water.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
He just disappeared.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I feel someone run their hand under my butt cheek,
just sliding under my butt.
Speaker 1 (00:33):
So that is my ghost story.
Speaker 2 (00:38):
Hi, and welcome to honid AF the podcast of real
ghost stories told by real people. We are your hosts.
I'm Julie Fish and I'm are Back of Black. So
coming up, we have got a truly terrifying dream to
analyze and beyond the pillow, and we've got an update
from a listener who's been renovating their farmhouse for a while,
so she sent a story to us last year. But
things have gotten crazy out there. That's all coming up.
Speaker 1 (00:58):
This episode of honidf is brought to you by Night
of the Living podcast.
Speaker 2 (01:02):
We can only do it a few more times.
Speaker 3 (01:03):

Speaker 2 (01:16):

Speaker 2 (01:31):

Speaker 1 (01:33):
You're looking for it, and buy the tickets.
Speaker 2 (01:34):
Please please buy the ticke they're so cheap.
Speaker 3 (01:36):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
We have a lot to get to today, so we're
going to just jump into Daryl's stories. He actually has two.
He says, this happened about two years ago. I was
out walking in the morning, shortly after it had gotten
light outside, which I do every day on any given day,
I will take a number of routes. In this particular morning,
my route took me to a commercial stretch in a
small town. One of the buildings was undergoing some renovations,
(01:59):
and be a guy, I always stopped to look at
the buildings to see what progress has been made since
the last time I walked by. That is such a gud.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
It's such a bad thing to do, Yes, it is. Oh,
where were we out?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I got the drywall up? I see, I hadn't quite
gotten to the point where I could see the building entirely,
and then I found myself past it. What I was
immediately confused. I looked in front of me in case
I was still walking up to the building and somehow
just forgot that stretch of sidewalk or that sequence of buildings.
That didn't help, So I look behind me and confirmed that, yeah,
(02:31):
the building under renovation was behind me, But I had
no recollection of walking the maybe one hundred yards to
where I was standing. In fact, I was far enough
away that I would have passed the building under renovation
and other buildings before and after it. One hundred yards
that's a long stretch. Yes, I instantly got a very
(02:53):
creepy feeling like something strange had just happened to me. Now,
to be clear, I wasn't looking at my phone. There
was no other activity in that distance or span a
time that would have distracted me. I'm convinced something different happened.
Plus I had too strong a reaction. When I realized
where I was, it wasn't like huh, it was like
what the fuck? So that event has not repeated, but
(03:16):
I pretty much just stopped walking on that route. Understandably.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
That's wild.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, so here, why don't you read the second way?
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Okay? Daryl also says this happened when I was a teenager.
I grew up in a house that backed up to
several graveyards. My parents were the first owners of that house,
so we were the first occupants. I remember when asked
how he felt about living next to a graveyard, my
dad would always say, if they don't bother us, I
won't bother them. That bargain seemed to hold for the
fourteen years my parents owned that house, except for one
(03:44):
possible exception. I was alone in the family room, which
opened into the kitchen. I was watching TV and had
left a glass on the kitchen counter about ten feet
from where I was sitting. Then, out of nowhere, the
glass broke into several pieces. The glass wasn't lightweight or
thinly construc it was just one of those heavy duty
glasses that were pretty common in the nineteen seventies. I
(04:05):
have no explanation for what happened, just that it shouldn't
have happened. I hadn't dropped the glass, nor had I
set it down hard. The glass just spontaneously fell into
several pieces.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
We've never heard anything like.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
No, no, nothing else happened that night, and I didn't
have any creepy feelings.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
The only feeling I.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Experienced was teenage irritation and having to clean up the
broken glass from Darryl in Missouri.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
So, Daryl sent a picture of the type of glasses,
but I think we all know them. They're those heavy
kind of green glasses. Oh yeah, the flat bass. I'll
post a picture. But it definitely doesn't seem like something
that would just fall apart.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
No, that's a thick, heavy duty glass.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yes, and this was in the seventies, not recently, so
not like it not like it was pretty old. Yeah.
So have you guys had anything like this happen? What
could it be? I thought that was pretty amazing, though,
beyond the pillow. Did you hear it?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Huh? I thought I heard howling I did?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That was weird? What did it sounding?
Speaker 3 (05:06):
It was like, oh, cat, it's the cat, He's getting closer.
But it sounded like howling. I'm sorry, I completely ruined
Beyond the Pillow.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
No, No, it's okay. So Shinchi likes to bring toys
to my bath mat or he'll just bring them to
me all over the house, but he'll carry it around
and he'll make that sound which sounds terrible.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
He'll go like, yeah, like it sounded like a painful
yel because.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
He's got something in his mouth. It's so he's going.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Or brought a toy.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I just know you've had some weird stuff happening in
the house, and I thought, oh, this is.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Weird, this is happening.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
It's happening, okay, God, speaking of beyond the Pillow. And
I've been meaning to dream about this dream myself. I'm
wondering if anybody else has had this particular dream. I
dream on occasion that I'm doing just a thing, I'm
doing my normal thing, and something invisible will pick me
up and push me up to the ceiling. And I
always think like it's scary, but I'm like, it's happening. Finally,
(06:02):
I'm having like a really big experience. I have that
dream so often that I need to google it or
I need to dream about it to figure out what
the story is.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
It has to.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Mean something, Yes, I don't know what anyway. Our dream
this week comes from Shoshana. She says, second dream this year,
involving both sleep paralysis and a creepy tickle monster.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
The dream goes like this.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
In the darkness of my room, comes a soft click
by the moonlight from my window. I see my bedroom
door slowly open. I try to jump, but I can't move.
I can only watch from the corner of my eye
as someone crawls into the room on all fours, then disappears.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Below the edge of the bed. Then a face rises
slowly in the view right next to me.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
It's a man with blonde hair and blue eyes, and
he grins as his hand slides under my covers, grows
then he starts to tickle me.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Oh, I recognize.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Those blue eyes and the cruel grin because I've I've
had this dream since I was nine years old, and
each time he appears, I'm paralyzed until I finally thrash free.
This is the first time he's appeared where I really am, though,
instead of some dream setting.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Oh does this mean he's getting closer?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Love you guys?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Showshana.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
So this is what dreamybot has to say.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I'm kind of scared of what dreamy bought us.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I know, dreamy Bot says, this dream is powerfully symbolic,
and the fact that it's recurred since childhood and now
feels different is significant. The paralysis you experience is a
classic dream motif, representing a feeling of powerlessness. Obviously okay.
The figure crawling on all four is suggests something primal
and potentially predatory. The fact that this man appears in
(07:43):
your actual bedroom rather than a dream setting is a
potent shift. Your bedroom is your sanctuary, the place where
you're most vulnerable and seek rest. For this figure to
invade that space suggests that whatever this man represents, a fear,
trauma or repressed memory, is no longer contained to your
sol conscious It doesn't mean that he's getting closer in
(08:03):
a literal sense, but that the energy he represents is
demanding your attention. I feel like that's really important. This
recurring dream beginning in childhood points to a foundational experience
that has shaped your sense of safety and trust. It
sounds like you're carrying a significant, unresolved trauma that has
been lurking beneath the surface for a long time. It's
important to remember that dreams don't offer literal predictions, but
(08:26):
rather a symbolic representation of our internal landscape. This dream
isn't about a man coming to get you, It's about
something within you that feels threatening. So I sent this
analysis to Shoshana and she told me when she was
really young, she was assaulted.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah, that is exactly where my brain had gone. I'm like,
oh god, I hope that's not the case.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Yes, I'm not exactly sure how young she was, but
it was a dentist. And she said that he had
blonde hair. Is not he's not the person that she
remembers in her dream, right, but he had blonde hair in.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Ploy my life.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Wow. Yeah. And she said that she didn't tell anyone
until she got a little older, like around eleven years old.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So yes, I was like, well, that would certainly mess
with you know, your sense of safety I trust one
hundred percent. So dreaming back kind of nailed it there.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Well, so like, maybe there is someone in your life
that is kind of giving out the same spidy vibes
that that guy was doing.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Dude, I didn't even consider that.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
I don't like and she's picking up on it somehow.
Maybe I'm always like, be careful who you're friends with.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Sorry, I'm like, I don't trust anybody, trust anyone.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Well, I mean, and I hate to say it. That
is kind of something as women we were taught very
much from a very early age. It's like, you always
have to be on guard, you have to protect your sully,
don't trust anybody. This time got more spooky news.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
So we told everyone about a year ago about the
West Virginia Paranormal Trail, which the Department of Tourism created
to introduce everyone to all the spooky.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Sites the state has to offer so many.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
It features tons of great places, some you're probably familiar with,
like the Mothman Museum or the West Virginia Penitentiary, but
there are some unexpected gems like the Lake Shawnee Abandoned
Amusement Parks, which is allegedly haunted by the people who
died there.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
How many people died there?
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Oh, God, tell us the story? How did they die?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
I die?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
We need all the details there.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
They have also added four new locations, including some haunted
theaters and the Seneca Caverns, which is a series of
underground caverns that are supposed to house all kinds of
spooky things, Like, really, do we want to be enclosed
in a cavern with a ghost?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I know we've seen the descent, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
You can find more details at wvtourism dot com and
we'll post a link in the show notes. But would
also like to offer our services to the West Virginia
Department of Tourism. Hello, Julie and I would be happy
to visit all of these locations. We'd like to cover
them extensively for you all. Were asking just pay for
our rooms and our airfare and maybe.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
A rental car. I like that. We're totally in. I'll
even go with you up weird ass creepy caverns. Same
You know, Nevada is doing the same thing or something
similar with their paranormal passports. Love that so same thing,
Like they're trying to get more tourism outside of Vegas.
So if you sign up for the passport, you get
information for spots like the infamous Clown Hotel.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I love the Clown Hotel.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Or Area fifty one. And you know Clown Hotel is
supposed to be haunted on its own It's like right
there next to a graveyard. Yeah, so we'll post that
one and our show notes as well, or you could
just go to travel Nevada dot com. You know, Texas
could do this. Mittal State is too damn big. Honestly,
we got haunted spots all over from like Terlingua all
the way up to text oar Canna. It's like eight
(11:45):
hours just to get eight hours. We were trying to
plan something from like Marathon to Marfa. And yeah, it's
anyhow if you're.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
I notice it hasn't happened yet. I know really because
Texas are just too damn bag.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
This spooky news is brought to you by Hangman's House
of Horror. That's Fort Worth's original haunted House, and it's

Speaker 3 (12:22):
All right, this last email comes from Tory, who has
some new stories for us.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
She says.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
When we spoke last, I told you we had a
contractor working on my childhood home and that he had
shared a dog man's story. Anyway, both my brother and
my father passed in this house, and my dad had
insanely bad luck there. It was hard to take over,
but it was my mother's dream home, so I decided
to renovate it and raise my family there. My childhood
was amazing, so I couldn't deny it for my kids.
(12:47):
We essentially had it gutted and redone, and of course
things got weird. For example, I had my contractor remove
a door frame and drywall over it. It was from
the upstairs hall that would have entered my old bedroom,
but it's now my closet with a separate entry. He
says he heard someone walk up the stairs and out
of the corner of his eye saw someone walk through
(13:08):
the wall into the old room. He was also once
up on a ladder working on lights when he heard
someone come into the house downstairs. He heard them storm
loudly through the house, then loudly leave. Then he heard
them come back in, storm up the stairs and stomp
right up behind him. He turned, thinking I had come
in flustered about something, but no one was there when
(13:29):
he turned around.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
He had to leave after this because he said it
was just too much.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
One night, my husband, kids and I were having a
fire out back. My husband took the kids into bed
and I stayed outside to clean up with the dog.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
As I was grabbing the.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Last few things, my dog and I clearly heard a
whistle call us two tones, Like you call a dog?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
What would that like?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Like? Like, yeah, come here, boy, Like I cannot whistle today.
I think that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Sorry, Tori, I don't know why I need the whistles out.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
The whistle soundsously. It came from the dark barn area
where the light doesn't reach. Oh why do you gotta
say it like that?
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (14:08):
The dog perked up and started walking towards it. No, no, sir,
I panicked and I yelled at him. Then we both
scrambled into the house so fucking fast. I did not
go back outside.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Don't blame me.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
We live miles from anyone and I wasn't testing it.
Just last night, my husband came running upstairs saying he
heard me yelling for him and that I sounded upset.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
He is not one to believe any of this, so
it really confused him.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
He almost didn't believe me when I said I hadn't
called him, because he was so convinced he heard me.
I'll keep you posted on anything further. Tory Tory for
Tory Tory. Ooh, I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Toy and I were kind of talking about this. You know.
Normally we would say to Sage, go in, like, yeah,
when's the whole house.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I don't think that's enough.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
But when your father and your brother passed in this place,
do you really want to do that? So she said
she has reached out to someone about coming over to
clean the house, like maybe in the meantime, just some
black turmaline, because we've heard that black turmaline is good
about chasing all bad spirits, about keeping the good ones,
because that's a lot. In fact, I looked up Tory's
(15:11):
story from last year. Girl both saw something run out
of the field on two feet, then drop to four
legs and jump across the door. It gets worse. He said.
It was large and hunched over and had a mane
like a hyaena. My contractor was also shocked to see
that it had what looked like large raccoon hands. Oh
(15:32):
do not like this guy. He also noted it did
not have a tailor. If it did, it was tucked
between its legs. Okay, for the record, in that little clip,
and if you're not watching on YouTube, go to honadaf
dot com. This is episode four, season twelve. The picture
that she sent that is from the actual property. So
the thing with the raccoon hands, is that what's whistling
to her from beside the barn? Don't no, Yeah, I see,
(15:55):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Tear down the barn, toy burn it down.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yeah. Also, I need to know a little bit more
about this bad luck you.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, that's a good question too.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yes, so Tory, just keep us posted, tell us more,
and again we need to know what that whistle sounded like.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
All right, before we go, we need to say huge

Speaker 1 (00:07):
I don't like the skeleton man. He's so mean to me,
and he bites me at night.
Speaker 2 (00:12):
And suddenly this stool, completely of its own volition, slid
good to maybe three feet out into the center of
the bar.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
He walks towards the ocean and he gets through the water.
Speaker 3 (00:23):
He just disappeared.
Speaker 2 (00:25):
I feel someone run their hand under my butt cheek,
just sliding under my butt.
Speaker 1 (00:33):

Speaker 2 (01:37):
We have a lot to get to today, so we're
going to just jump into Daryl's stories. He actually has two.
He says, this happened about two years ago. I was
out walking in the morning, shortly after it had gotten
light outside, which I do every day on any given day,
I will take a number of routes. In this particular morning,
my route took me to a commercial stretch in a
small town. One of the buildings was undergoing some renovations,
(01:59):
and be a guy, I always stopped to look at
the buildings to see what progress has been made since
the last time I walked by. That is such a gud.
Speaker 1 (02:06):
It's such a bad thing to do, Yes, it is. Oh,
where were we out?
Speaker 2 (02:10):
I got the drywall up? I see, I hadn't quite
gotten to the point where I could see the building entirely,
and then I found myself past it. What I was
immediately confused. I looked in front of me in case
I was still walking up to the building and somehow
just forgot that stretch of sidewalk or that sequence of buildings.
That didn't help, So I look behind me and confirmed that, yeah,
(02:31):
the building under renovation was behind me, But I had
no recollection of walking the maybe one hundred yards to
where I was standing. In fact, I was far enough
away that I would have passed the building under renovation
and other buildings before and after it. One hundred yards
that's a long stretch. Yes, I instantly got a very
(02:53):
creepy feeling like something strange had just happened to me. Now,
to be clear, I wasn't looking at my phone. There
was no other activity in that distance or span a
time that would have distracted me. I'm convinced something different happened.
Plus I had too strong a reaction. When I realized
where I was, it wasn't like huh, it was like
what the fuck? So that event has not repeated, but
(03:16):
I pretty much just stopped walking on that route. Understandably.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
That's wild.
Speaker 2 (03:19):
Yeah, so here, why don't you read the second way?
Speaker 3 (03:21):
Okay? Daryl also says this happened when I was a teenager.
I grew up in a house that backed up to
several graveyards. My parents were the first owners of that house,
so we were the first occupants. I remember when asked
how he felt about living next to a graveyard, my
dad would always say, if they don't bother us, I
won't bother them. That bargain seemed to hold for the
fourteen years my parents owned that house, except for one
(03:44):
possible exception. I was alone in the family room, which
opened into the kitchen. I was watching TV and had
left a glass on the kitchen counter about ten feet
from where I was sitting. Then, out of nowhere, the
glass broke into several pieces. The glass wasn't lightweight or
thinly construc it was just one of those heavy duty
glasses that were pretty common in the nineteen seventies. I
(04:05):
have no explanation for what happened, just that it shouldn't
have happened. I hadn't dropped the glass, nor had I
set it down hard. The glass just spontaneously fell into
several pieces.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
We've never heard anything like.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
No, no, nothing else happened that night, and I didn't
have any creepy feelings.
Speaker 1 (04:22):
The only feeling I.
Speaker 3 (04:23):
Experienced was teenage irritation and having to clean up the
broken glass from Darryl in Missouri.
Speaker 2 (04:29):
So, Daryl sent a picture of the type of glasses,
but I think we all know them. They're those heavy
kind of green glasses. Oh yeah, the flat bass. I'll
post a picture. But it definitely doesn't seem like something
that would just fall apart.
Speaker 1 (04:41):
No, that's a thick, heavy duty glass.
Speaker 2 (04:43):
Yes, and this was in the seventies, not recently, so
not like it not like it was pretty old. Yeah.
So have you guys had anything like this happen? What
could it be? I thought that was pretty amazing, though,
beyond the pillow. Did you hear it?
Speaker 1 (05:02):
Huh? I thought I heard howling I did?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That was weird? What did it sounding?
Speaker 3 (05:06):
It was like, oh, cat, it's the cat, He's getting closer.
But it sounded like howling. I'm sorry, I completely ruined
Beyond the Pillow.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
No, No, it's okay. So Shinchi likes to bring toys
to my bath mat or he'll just bring them to
me all over the house, but he'll carry it around
and he'll make that sound which sounds terrible.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
He'll go like, yeah, like it sounded like a painful
yel because.
Speaker 2 (05:27):
He's got something in his mouth. It's so he's going.
Speaker 1 (05:31):
Or brought a toy.
Speaker 3 (05:33):
I just know you've had some weird stuff happening in
the house, and I thought, oh, this is.
Speaker 1 (05:37):
Weird, this is happening.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
It's happening, okay, God, speaking of beyond the Pillow. And
I've been meaning to dream about this dream myself. I'm
wondering if anybody else has had this particular dream. I
dream on occasion that I'm doing just a thing, I'm
doing my normal thing, and something invisible will pick me
up and push me up to the ceiling. And I
always think like it's scary, but I'm like, it's happening. Finally,
(06:02):
I'm having like a really big experience. I have that
dream so often that I need to google it or
I need to dream about it to figure out what
the story is.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
It has to.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
Mean something, Yes, I don't know what anyway. Our dream
this week comes from Shoshana. She says, second dream this year,
involving both sleep paralysis and a creepy tickle monster.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
The dream goes like this.
Speaker 3 (06:24):
In the darkness of my room, comes a soft click
by the moonlight from my window. I see my bedroom
door slowly open. I try to jump, but I can't move.
I can only watch from the corner of my eye
as someone crawls into the room on all fours, then disappears.
Speaker 1 (06:40):
Below the edge of the bed. Then a face rises
slowly in the view right next to me.
Speaker 3 (06:46):
It's a man with blonde hair and blue eyes, and
he grins as his hand slides under my covers, grows
then he starts to tickle me.
Speaker 1 (06:56):
Oh, I recognize.
Speaker 3 (06:57):
Those blue eyes and the cruel grin because I've I've
had this dream since I was nine years old, and
each time he appears, I'm paralyzed until I finally thrash free.
This is the first time he's appeared where I really am, though,
instead of some dream setting.
Speaker 1 (07:11):
Oh does this mean he's getting closer?
Speaker 2 (07:14):
Love you guys?
Speaker 1 (07:15):
Showshana.
Speaker 2 (07:16):
So this is what dreamybot has to say.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
I'm kind of scared of what dreamy bought us.
Speaker 2 (07:21):
I know, dreamy Bot says, this dream is powerfully symbolic,
and the fact that it's recurred since childhood and now
feels different is significant. The paralysis you experience is a
classic dream motif, representing a feeling of powerlessness. Obviously okay.
The figure crawling on all four is suggests something primal
and potentially predatory. The fact that this man appears in
(07:43):
your actual bedroom rather than a dream setting is a
potent shift. Your bedroom is your sanctuary, the place where
you're most vulnerable and seek rest. For this figure to
invade that space suggests that whatever this man represents, a fear,
trauma or repressed memory, is no longer contained to your
sol conscious It doesn't mean that he's getting closer in
(08:03):
a literal sense, but that the energy he represents is
demanding your attention. I feel like that's really important. This
recurring dream beginning in childhood points to a foundational experience
that has shaped your sense of safety and trust. It
sounds like you're carrying a significant, unresolved trauma that has
been lurking beneath the surface for a long time. It's
important to remember that dreams don't offer literal predictions, but
(08:26):
rather a symbolic representation of our internal landscape. This dream
isn't about a man coming to get you, It's about
something within you that feels threatening. So I sent this
analysis to Shoshana and she told me when she was
really young, she was assaulted.
Speaker 3 (08:41):
Yeah, that is exactly where my brain had gone. I'm like,
oh god, I hope that's not the case.
Speaker 2 (08:45):
Yes, I'm not exactly sure how young she was, but
it was a dentist. And she said that he had
blonde hair. Is not he's not the person that she
remembers in her dream, right, but he had blonde hair in.
Speaker 1 (08:55):
Ploy my life.
Speaker 2 (08:56):
Wow. Yeah. And she said that she didn't tell anyone
until she got a little older, like around eleven years old.
Speaker 1 (09:02):
Oh my god.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
So yes, I was like, well, that would certainly mess
with you know, your sense of safety I trust one
hundred percent. So dreaming back kind of nailed it there.
Speaker 3 (09:13):
Well, so like, maybe there is someone in your life
that is kind of giving out the same spidy vibes
that that guy was doing.
Speaker 2 (09:19):
Dude, I didn't even consider that.
Speaker 3 (09:21):
I don't like and she's picking up on it somehow.
Maybe I'm always like, be careful who you're friends with.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Sorry, I'm like, I don't trust anybody, trust anyone.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Well, I mean, and I hate to say it. That
is kind of something as women we were taught very
much from a very early age. It's like, you always
have to be on guard, you have to protect your sully,
don't trust anybody. This time got more spooky news.
Speaker 3 (09:53):
So we told everyone about a year ago about the
West Virginia Paranormal Trail, which the Department of Tourism created
to introduce everyone to all the spooky.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Sites the state has to offer so many.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
It features tons of great places, some you're probably familiar with,
like the Mothman Museum or the West Virginia Penitentiary, but
there are some unexpected gems like the Lake Shawnee Abandoned
Amusement Parks, which is allegedly haunted by the people who
died there.
Speaker 2 (10:19):
How many people died there?
Speaker 1 (10:20):
Oh, God, tell us the story? How did they die?
Speaker 2 (10:24):
I die?
Speaker 1 (10:27):
We need all the details there.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
They have also added four new locations, including some haunted
theaters and the Seneca Caverns, which is a series of
underground caverns that are supposed to house all kinds of
spooky things, Like, really, do we want to be enclosed
in a cavern with a ghost?
Speaker 2 (10:42):
I know we've seen the descent, Yeah exactly.
Speaker 3 (10:45):
You can find more details at wvtourism dot com and
we'll post a link in the show notes. But would
also like to offer our services to the West Virginia
Department of Tourism. Hello, Julie and I would be happy
to visit all of these locations. We'd like to cover
them extensively for you all. Were asking just pay for
our rooms and our airfare and maybe.
Speaker 2 (11:03):
A rental car. I like that. We're totally in. I'll
even go with you up weird ass creepy caverns. Same
You know, Nevada is doing the same thing or something
similar with their paranormal passports. Love that so same thing,
Like they're trying to get more tourism outside of Vegas.
So if you sign up for the passport, you get
information for spots like the infamous Clown Hotel.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
I love the Clown Hotel.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
Or Area fifty one. And you know Clown Hotel is
supposed to be haunted on its own It's like right
there next to a graveyard. Yeah, so we'll post that
one and our show notes as well, or you could
just go to travel Nevada dot com. You know, Texas
could do this. Mittal State is too damn big. Honestly,
we got haunted spots all over from like Terlingua all
the way up to text oar Canna. It's like eight
(11:45):
hours just to get eight hours. We were trying to
plan something from like Marathon to Marfa. And yeah, it's
anyhow if you're.
Speaker 1 (11:52):
I notice it hasn't happened yet. I know really because
Texas are just too damn bag.
Speaker 2 (11:57):

Speaker 3 (12:22):
All right, this last email comes from Tory, who has
some new stories for us.
Speaker 2 (12:26):
She says.
Speaker 3 (12:26):
When we spoke last, I told you we had a
contractor working on my childhood home and that he had
shared a dog man's story. Anyway, both my brother and
my father passed in this house, and my dad had
insanely bad luck there. It was hard to take over,
but it was my mother's dream home, so I decided
to renovate it and raise my family there. My childhood
was amazing, so I couldn't deny it for my kids.
(12:47):
We essentially had it gutted and redone, and of course
things got weird. For example, I had my contractor remove
a door frame and drywall over it. It was from
the upstairs hall that would have entered my old bedroom,
but it's now my closet with a separate entry. He
says he heard someone walk up the stairs and out
of the corner of his eye saw someone walk through
(13:08):
the wall into the old room. He was also once
up on a ladder working on lights when he heard
someone come into the house downstairs. He heard them storm
loudly through the house, then loudly leave. Then he heard
them come back in, storm up the stairs and stomp
right up behind him. He turned, thinking I had come
in flustered about something, but no one was there when
(13:29):
he turned around.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Oh wow.
Speaker 1 (13:31):
He had to leave after this because he said it
was just too much.
Speaker 3 (13:34):
One night, my husband, kids and I were having a
fire out back. My husband took the kids into bed
and I stayed outside to clean up with the dog.
Speaker 1 (13:41):
As I was grabbing the.
Speaker 3 (13:42):
Last few things, my dog and I clearly heard a
whistle call us two tones, Like you call a dog?
Speaker 2 (13:48):
What would that like?
Speaker 1 (13:49):
Like? Like, yeah, come here, boy, Like I cannot whistle today.
I think that's what it is.
Speaker 2 (13:56):
Sorry, Tori, I don't know why I need the whistles out.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
The whistle soundsously. It came from the dark barn area
where the light doesn't reach. Oh why do you gotta
say it like that?
Speaker 2 (14:08):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (14:08):
The dog perked up and started walking towards it. No, no, sir,
I panicked and I yelled at him. Then we both
scrambled into the house so fucking fast. I did not
go back outside.
Speaker 2 (14:19):
Don't blame me.
Speaker 3 (14:20):
We live miles from anyone and I wasn't testing it.
Just last night, my husband came running upstairs saying he
heard me yelling for him and that I sounded upset.
Speaker 1 (14:29):
He is not one to believe any of this, so
it really confused him.
Speaker 3 (14:32):
He almost didn't believe me when I said I hadn't
called him, because he was so convinced he heard me.
I'll keep you posted on anything further. Tory Tory for
Tory Tory. Ooh, I don't know what to tell you.
Speaker 2 (14:43):
Toy and I were kind of talking about this. You know.
Normally we would say to Sage, go in, like, yeah,
when's the whole house.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
I don't think that's enough.
Speaker 2 (14:49):
But when your father and your brother passed in this place,
do you really want to do that? So she said
she has reached out to someone about coming over to
clean the house, like maybe in the meantime, just some
black turmaline, because we've heard that black turmaline is good
about chasing all bad spirits, about keeping the good ones,
because that's a lot. In fact, I looked up Tory's
(15:11):
story from last year. Girl both saw something run out
of the field on two feet, then drop to four
legs and jump across the door. It gets worse. He said.
It was large and hunched over and had a mane
like a hyaena. My contractor was also shocked to see
that it had what looked like large raccoon hands. Oh
(15:32):
do not like this guy. He also noted it did
not have a tailor. If it did, it was tucked
between its legs. Okay, for the record, in that little clip,
and if you're not watching on YouTube, go to honadaf
dot com. This is episode four, season twelve. The picture
that she sent that is from the actual property. So
the thing with the raccoon hands, is that what's whistling
to her from beside the barn? Don't no, Yeah, I see,
(15:55):
I'm sorry.
Speaker 1 (15:55):
Tear down the barn, toy burn it down.
Speaker 2 (15:59):
Yeah. Also, I need to know a little bit more
about this bad luck you.
Speaker 1 (16:02):
Yeah, that's a good question too.
Speaker 2 (16:05):
Yes, so Tory, just keep us posted, tell us more,
and again we need to know what that whistle sounded like.
Speaker 3 (16:10):
All right, before we go, we need to say huge
