Speaker 1 (00:24):
Hey, cool friends, it's me. Oh my god, I missed
you so much. Sorry, I'm already yelling Happy New Year.
Holy cow. It okay, So you all have been keeping up,
I'm sure, on social media at soost to podcast on
every platform. So I took Christmas break, right winter break.
(00:46):
I'm gonna explain to y'all what happened. I'm giving you
the full timeline. I took winter break, and then I
expected to just jump back into the new year. Happy
New Year, by the way, Oh my god. And then
I get home, New Year comes and goes. Mind you.
I had a cough the entire month of December, but
I figured a cedar a season was here, I got
(01:06):
cedar fever or something. It was just allergies. It was
a dry cough. Nothing. And then you're my doctor, by
the way, and I'm telling you all of this, and
then suddenly something has changed within me. I loved Wicked,
by the way. I don't know if you can tell.
And then the cough was different. It was now, sorry
to be gross, but it was a wet cough. It
(01:27):
was productive. There was stuff happening. I could suddenly feel
a rattling while I was breathing, and I said, this
is not just an allergy cough anymore. This has progressed
into something else, which apparently is something that can happen
if you have allergies bad enough. Bronchitis is an opportunistic
infection spoiler alert. And then I went to the doctor
and they said, hey, you have bronchitis. So I was
(01:47):
put on like a stronger cough medicine and an inhaler.
I finally just started to sound like myself a couple
days ago. And when I meet a couple days ago,
I hit the ground running as soon as I can. Literally, no,
I didn't even think about it, and no pun intended,
as you may have also seen on my Instagram stories,
and I think I posted about it on Blue Sky.
I ran for the first time a half marathon, and
(02:10):
if you all have been following me for a while,
I think I spoke about it before where I started
running and it was amazing. I'm I'm like deceptively a natural.
I'm sorry, you're gonna get a bunch of bs before
we get into today's episode. So if you don't want to,
if you do not, if you hate me, just say
that and skip ahead. But by the way, this is
also a video episode for I Am All over the Place.
I'm so sorry. This is a video episode for Best
(02:32):
Ghoul Friends on Patreon Patroon dot com'l Sustal podcast. So
I'm looking at you writing your eyes right now. I'm
telling you all of this. But okay, So I started running.
I'm deceptively a natural athlete. I don't know what it is.
I picked it up and I said, you know what,
I'm going to run a half marathon this year with
the encouragement of family and friends, and I signed up
for it months ago. It rolls around and I because
(02:56):
of this cough and that turned into bronchitis, I was
not able to train. The last time I had run,
I ran like six miles and I didn't train at all,
basically because this cough and bronchitis knocked me on my ass.
There was no way I could train like that. But
I was like, you know what, I paid for this,
Let me go. My goal will be to finish it,
at least at the very least I can finish it, y'all.
(03:18):
Why did I run eleven and a half out of
those thirteen point one miles. I'm literally a demon. You
cannot kill me. You cannot keep me down, because again
I just started to sound like myself. And then I said, Okay,
I think I can do this. I'll take the inhaler
with me. Worst case scenario, it's the Austin International Half.
They have everything taken care of thought through. Worst case scenario,
(03:42):
I get a ride from the EMT and then that's
it and I try again next year. So I went
for it, and I did amazing. I did a sub
three if that means I did it under three hours,
if that means anything to anybody. I think my official
tag time was two hours forty six minutes. So yes,
thank you so much. Please, I you should clap exactly.
And I am no all jokes aside. I am so
(04:04):
proud of myself that I even did it. Maybe a
bad idea. I feel fine now. This was two three
days ago. And when I say I feel fine, I
mean I feel like I'm breathing fine. I feel like
it didn't worsen my condition. I am extremely sore. Yes,
my feet were killing me. My I have the hips
of a ninety five year old right now. But I
did it, and I'm so proud of myself, and I
(04:25):
absolutely cried at the finish line. I also there's pictures.
I'll throw them here in the video. I might post
them online later. But yeah, I just so entering twenty
twenty five on like a low note by getting sick
and then skyrocketing as soon as I was given the opportunity.
So that's what this year is going to be. If
I don't want there to be. But if there happened
(04:45):
to be low points, that is only going to be
followed by me shooting straight up from hell like a
bat out of hell. I'm telling you, I ran like
hell all that to say I missed you. I missed this.
Every time I take a break, even if it's one
episode that I take off, I'm like, oh, I miss
it so much. But the fact that I took the
(05:05):
month of December off, And thank you so much to
everyone who did a feed swap with me, and I
hope you all enjoyed those shows. I hope you discovered
someone new, I hope you were reminded of someone whatever
it is, I just I really hope you enjoyed that.
And please feel free to send in your recommendations for
next year. I took that month off. I didn't expect
to take an extra basically another month. We are at
the end of January, which is mind blowing to me.
(05:28):
We're the last two weeks of January. So thank you
so much for your patience. It honestly, it means so
much to me because every time I have to take
time off that is unplanned, it like, it's devastating to me.
I feel terrible about it. But you all are amazing
at reminding me that although yes I am a monster,
I'm a demon, I am also still human. There is
(05:48):
a human inside here somewhere that I need to take
care of, and I really, really truly appreciate every time
that you all remind me about that. So thank you
so much for returning. And if this is your first time, sorry,
you just got the full display of what's happening in here.
By the way, do you like my horns? If you're
watching this on Patreon, you may have seen them also
(06:09):
in the last movie night I was also I went
live randomly on TikTok to show like, hey, I'm live
on doing you know whatever. Anyway, new headphones, new horns, hoodas.
Thank you so much for being here, Thank you for returning.

(07:58):
You already know it one more time, Happy New Year,
Welcome officially to twenty twenty five. It is so good
to talk to you, to see you if you're watching. Yeah,
we're gonna go ahead and jump into today's letters from
the Beyond. Okay, so this first story is from hose
(08:29):
and he titled it a sleep paralysis story. So already ooh,
super into it. And Hossa says, hey, Adrian, I've been
hooked on the podcast Let's Not Meet, and I remember
sharing this story with them, but it's more horror ghost
like while their pod is more about real life creeps.
So definitely feel free to check them out. Eventually, I
got to your podcast as a recommendation and have binging
(08:50):
it from the beginning. Thank you Hossas so much. I'm
not too far in, but saw you talk about sleep paralysis,
so thought i'd share this one with you. Yes I do.
I have an episode on sleep paralysis slash La Pisa
Veira or the night Hag, which if I'm remember incorrectly
is from Brazilian folklore, the version that I told on
Susto Jose continues keep diving into the Latin horrors. Love
(09:14):
this idea. I think it's a good idea too. Hose
still think La Mano pelula ILOs Luendez fucked me up
as a kid. Same Colombian horror stories were my childhood,
so this is cool to see how similar but different
some Mexican folk tales are and how it might be
called something slightly different exactly. That's the whole point of
the show is we connect over our cultures, no matter
(09:35):
how different they may be. Sometimes they intersect it in
really really cool ways, so thank you for pointing that
out onto the story. I have always been a horror
of ficionado with a wild imagination as a kid, so
I know this can be what caused these night terrors
to occur. More frequently as a child. I remember vivid
moments where I would be frozen in my bed while
hearing loud ringing in my ear, things such as whispers
(09:59):
getting louder and louder to the point of indistinguishable gibberish.
The more panicked I would get, I say panicked, because
there was no way for me to move, let alone
get in a deep breath. This was before I ever
knew of the sleep paralysis having a name. I also
noticed to the more you try to move, the more
it feels like there are ropes tied around you, holding
(10:19):
you down to the bed and getting tighter and tighter.
Netflix has a decent movie called Nightmare that explains this
phenomenon much more in depth, but when it occurred to me,
I had no clue it was normal for others to
feel it as well. It's as if you do not
ever remember falling asleep, so your mind drifts from being
very sleepy to being extremely lucid and terrified at the
(10:41):
fact that something feels wrong. You cannot move your body,
only your eyes, and the more you try to fight
the paralysis, the more panic sets in. I believe this
panic is what caused us to conjure up the darkest thoughts,
which manifest what people say as a dark figure, alien, demon,
or whatnot. Fast forward from age about nine to high school.
(11:03):
In high school, this became a frequent occurrence where I
began to think I was being possessed or something was
trying to contact me. From just being paralyzed and seeing
a tombstone appear near the foot of my bed, to
waking up with bruises from where the tightness would be
where I would try to move. There were even moments
where I saw my mother open my bedroom door while
(11:23):
I would try to scream for help, and when I
eventually woke up, I'd go to my parents mad that
they didn't help, and they would say they never came
into my room and that I have been quietly sleeping
the whole time. This usually only occurred when I was
extremely exhausted during the day, such as coming back from
the pool or beach and just wanting to crash. The
easier it was to fall asleep, the faster these paralysis
(11:46):
moments would come. High school started taking a toll on
me after my track practices, where I would be terrified
to even take a nap. Fast forward again from high
school to age twenty three. I had just began dating
my now wife and we decided to go for a
weekend to Philadelphia. We decided to stay in Old City
Philly in a hotel room that seemed ancient but clean
(12:07):
and nice. It gave the vibe that this was standing
here since the seventeen hundreds, so a lot of history
was here. We eventually got tired after exploring the town
all day and drinking, once we decided to go to bed.
This part is important. I was on the left, wife
on the right. If you are looking at the bed
from the foot of the bed, there was a simple
dresser that was half empty in the top portion with
(12:28):
an old TV system in it. Therefore, the doors needed
to be open to see the TV, and the bottom
was drawers for clothes. I have also been somewhat of
an arcalptic, so I can fall into deep sleep in
a matter of minutes. We went to bed without watching TV,
so the dresser doors were closed. This was just like
any other night until I recall closing my eyes to bed,
(12:51):
then waking up in swapped places where I am now
on the right side and she is on the left.
Another important detail is that the entrance door to our
room was closer to the left side of the bed,
which is why I chose to sleep on that side
in case anyone broke in paranoid person being raised in
a not so safe neighborhood, and the door had one
of those chain locks as well as the usual top
(13:13):
bolt lock. What I saw still gives me goosebumps to
this day. I opened my eyes and immediately knew I
was in one of my sleep paralysis dreams because the
dresser was open, the TV was playing old reruns of
The Simpsons, and all the lights were off. My wife
is usually very scared of old places and tends to
feel presences or bad energy, while I, on the other hand,
(13:37):
am oblivious to these sort of things and purposely go
to old places to spook myself out. But she likes
to at least keep one light on at all times.
Let's just say I got what I was asking for.
As soon as I'd look around the room, I begin
to see our doorknob wiggling as if someone is trying
to get in, and I begin to panic. I knew
(13:57):
this was a dream, but at the moment, it's hard
to come down the mind to snap out of it,
so I closed my eyes and began to pray, but
then came the noisy chatter in my head. I opened
my eyes, hoping it was over, but now I see
that the door was opened slightly, but the chain was
still holding it closed. I began to see a dark
(14:18):
shadow of a hand with claws trying to get its
way in to unlock the chain, and panic began to
rise further, making me want to throw up once again.
I closed my eyes and started to try to kick
my body awake. This is where it's countless of times before,
and I wake up screaming, but it takes time to
fight the exhaustion and paralysis. When I opened my eyes
(14:39):
once more, the shadow figure was now in our room,
just staring right at me, but it was hard to
tell since it was the figure of a woman with
long hair and the only detail of her face was
light white. Eyes. Eyes closed again, open them up again,
and now she is standing right next to my wife,
who was sound asleep. But she begins to slowly inch
(15:03):
over to her to get to me, and begins to
whisper my wife's name. That was about all my horror
fanatic self can take, as I forced all my muscles
to contract as much as I can to explosively jolt up.
This startled my wife, since now I am sitting right up, screaming, sweating.
(15:26):
The light is still on in our room, and now
she's trying to calm me down. But I'm once again
woken up on the left side of the bed where
she just was, and I try not to tell her
what I just saw, but told her no way in
hell am I going back to sleep. I checked the
doors and everything was locked. The dresser door was closed,
t be off, and nothing was out of the ordinary.
(15:49):
Usually when I have these episodes, nothing changes in the room,
but this was the first and only time where things
were completely switched and didn't match the setting. Maybe this
my I intrigue someone to come and stay in a
hotel in Old City Philly, since it still sometimes calls
me back for the thrill of the fright. It's been
years since I have had sleep paralysis happen, thank God,
(16:11):
but low key kind of miss it. Josse, Josse, you
are wild for missing sleep paralysis. I can't. I can't yet.
I can't remember the last time that I've had sleep prolysis,
nor do I want to, nor do I miss it?
So something's wrong with you? No, I'm kidding. That is intense.
This is a really intense story of sleep proalysis. This
(16:31):
feels like it was drawn out over such a long
period of time when I've experienced it, and do you
all let me know if it's been different for you.
But whenever I've experienced it, it's been in like short
kind of bursts and only like once throughout the night, thankfully,
But it never feels more than a couple minutes, more
than like three five minutes. This sounds like this took
(16:53):
a long time, which is terrifying. Thank you so much
for sending this in. I did ask quosea he remembered
the name of the hotel that they stayed in, but
he couldn't remember because it had been so long, it
had been so many years since that trip. But it
was in Old City Philly, which he says is a
common area that has super old buildings and historical places.
(17:13):
So if you all are interested in experiencing your own
sleep paralysis experience, apparently Old City Philly is where it's at.
Thank you, Jose Okay. This next story is from Autumn
(17:38):
and her subject line is just spooky story perfect simple,
love it Autumn and Autumn says hey, Aiden slash Adrian,
whichever you prefer. Either way. My whole life, I've been
interested in spooky stuff. My dad was also this way
and would always tell me stories from when he was
a kid slash teenager. As you've said, it's very common
in the Hispanic culture. I wanted to share one of
(18:00):
his stories with you that always stuck with me. For context,
my great grandparents immigrated from Mexico to West Texas and
my grandma grew up in poverty. When she got married
to my grandfather, they stayed on my great grandparents property
for a long time. This piece of property is small
and still in the family. My great grandfather had a
reputation of being a quote evil man. He was abusive,
(18:23):
and my great grandmother, grandmother, and my great aunts everyone
would say he practiced black magic. He died before I
was born, so I didn't know him. Because of him
being abusive, My grandma never talked about him, so I
never asked what quote black magic meant to them. When
I asked my aunts, they said they never wanted to know,
so they didn't ask. So with that context, as a teenager,
(18:44):
my dad and grandparents still lived on my great grandparents property.
One night, he and his friends were sitting out on
the front porch that faced a fence line that was
next to some trees and brush. They were sitting outside
smoking cigarettes talking when they heard something move off to
the side of the house. My dad said he looked
over and saw something big, standing on two legs, and
(19:06):
it was tall. He said it had to be six
feet tall. He said all he could see were the eyes,
which were bright red, and he and his friends froze,
and this thing ran past the porch and jumped the fence. Obviously,
he and his friends were terrified and ran into the house.
The next morning, my grandma and great grandma went outside
and found large hoof prints from the area where they
(19:29):
first saw the thing all the way to the fence line.
My grandma called the kids out to see and confirm
what my dad saw, so he doesn't know what it was.
I think that property has a lot of evil attached
to it because of my great grandfather. A witch in
our town was also paid to try and curse our
family because of him. My dad also said after his
(19:50):
grandfather died, he always saw his ghost walking around the
property In his quote white wife beater or white tank top.
He said he knew it had to to be a
ghost because every time he would walk the same path
and turn and disappear into one of the walls outside
of the house. The tank top shirt was something he
wore every day in life, so my dad knew it
(20:11):
was him. My grandmother lived in a house on that
property until she died there when I was in high school.
I have my own experience in her house. I could
share too, but this email is super long already. I
hope you enjoyed autumn Autumn. That email was not long
at all. Please send more. I think I reached out
to you and I said to keep them coming, So
if you hear this, thank you so much for sending
(20:31):
that in. I actually did also read this episode on
a crossover that I did with Carmen and Cristina from
Spooky Tails and Laney from Its Haunted What Now and
True Crank Cases with Laney kind of as a soft
launch for our new podcast, Quancihito's Anonymous, So feel free
to follow that on Instagram and check it out. We
may or may not have just recorded something, so keep
your eyes and ears open for that. Yeah. I think
(20:53):
what I remember talking about this story is it's so
it was very interesting this idea of your great ground
father in a way kind of like protecting the property
from whatever that thing may have been, or maybe that
thing was him, or maybe the kind of magic that
he did summoned this thing. And it was very into
(21:13):
this interesting take of like he's protecting the property in
the family, although he, like you said, he was abusive
in his life, but it's that kind of mentality of like, no,
only I can abuse these It's weird to say, but
like you know, these are my people to abuse. Is
kind of the way that I've seen abusers thinking portrayed
or like document it is. There's that ego kind of
(21:35):
territorial This is mine. I get to do what I
want with it, not you, right either way, Autumn, thank
you so much for sending that in this against seeing
this six foot tall dark figure at night and just
bright red eyes. I'm not a demon, doctor, Okay, I
simply am one, But that sounds like a demon to me.
It's giving me chills just thinking about it. I don't
(21:56):
want to think about seeing that ever. Okay, this is
another great one from Christina. Christina, thank you so much
(22:17):
for sending this in. This is a really like Christina
documented a really creepy night at the Zach Bagans Haunted
Museum on a trip that she took so very excited
to read this one to you because it's intense. I
had Oh my god, reading through this was like creepy
to me. But anyway, Prisina says, hey, Aiden, I would
love to recap these stories to you. I think it
will give you a fun little chill up your spine.
(22:39):
It sure did, she says, so September sixteenth, we went
to the Haunted Museum and did the rip tour. Me
my friend and her mom of course, did the usual
jokes on the way of us being zach Begans and
how I never believed in ghost until we saw someone
say they saw one. Funny little jokes like that For context,
my friend is Catholic and I am a practitioner with
a vague leaf system, but we both absolutely rolled up
(23:02):
with crosses good idea or well for the beginning. I
don't know if I would call myself a sensitive, but
I always have had incidents that happened around me, and
I could never explain things disappearing the moment I put
them down, seeing people that weren't there for brief moments
all through my life, dreams that could predict things days
or years in advance. But once we entered the waiting room,
(23:24):
one thing flooded my brain as I adjusted the crosschain
on my neck. Take it off, Take it off, Take
it off, take it off, take it off. So I did.
I'm gonna pause right there, Casina. If I went to
a haunted museum and then I suddenly heard something telling
me to take off whatever symbol of protection I have on.
(23:44):
I'm not doing that, sister, But you are. You are
different than me, You are different from me. So, hey,
you did it, and I'm glad that you lived to
send this story in. But I just wanted to, Hey,
flag on the play really quick for me, Crisina continues.
So I did, and boy did I get what I
was looking for? What did I say? We started in
(24:04):
a room for Annalise Michelle and listening to the recording
as you stared at the exorcism kit used on her
in a room that was made to look like a
dark church, it stirred something in me where I couldn't
really look away from the box till we were instructed
to go through a tunnel that had no lights and
told to watch our hands and not to touch anything.
I fumbled along the wall feeling for it, and when
(24:26):
I got to the edge, I felt some fabric, looking
up to see I had grabbed onto the sleeve of
a puppet with my right hand and pulled away. It
was a damn room full of puppets. I'm not a
big dollphan, Christina neither am I. As the tour progressed,
my pinky and ring finger on my right hand began
to tingle, and thinking it was my adorable little Koki
(24:46):
purse cutting off circulation to my arm, I shifted it over.
It didn't really work. In fact, it began to move
up my hand in a numbing pins and needles feeling.
As we eventually went down to the basement, where we
had to walk over a p pentagram on the floor
as a spirit box ran in the background. We were
told that if we heard our names to say something
(25:07):
immediately because then we were in trouble. Whilst I didn't
hear anything, I thought I heard my friend's name, but
I couldn't be sure, so I didn't mention it. Christina
paused flag another flag on the play, I would have
said something. She says she didn't hear it either, but
her mother definitely did and she didn't mention it till
(25:27):
after we left. Walking over the Pentagram, I felt like
gravity had momentarily shifted, and I don't recall much down
there besides that, it was cramped and dark, and we
all left shortly after or we would get into trouble
as we were timed. Once we got to the second floor,
the pins and needles had gone up to my bicep
and my pinky and ring finger started to hurt. I
mentioned it to my friend, but we were both in
(25:49):
it to win it. We had heard people got escorted
out for less than this, and it was too soon.
And let me tell you, this place was covered wall
to wall in items this man has bought or been
donated to him, tribal items, statues, sacrificial tools, skeletons, a
lion head, a skin suit, the chair for Michael Jackson's room,
Patrick Swayzey's tooth, so much Serial Killer memorabilia, and the mirrors,
(26:13):
gods above and below the mirrors. But we ended up
in Peggy's room, and besides irritation, I didn't get much
from her. In fact, she didn't say anything. There is
also the room that has the severed head of a man,
but I couldn't bring myself to look at it. The
room was so intense and dark that I couldn't do it.
My friend did say he looked a little dry and
(26:34):
needed a bit of lotion, though, so that was kind
of funny. Oh my god, not you all reading this
poor person's head. I wonder this is not in the story,
but me, Aiden, I wonder, what is the process of
getting these things, you know, or keeping them on display.
I'm like, there has to be some because I know,
like with skulls, for example, like human skulls, real human
skulls that people collect or trade or whatever, there's laws
(26:56):
around that. And so I'm like, a severed head, like
is it real? Is it? Like I I don't know.
I'm just I'm very curious about, like, Okay, what's the
paperwork behind this? Like I'm just thinking of the logistics
about how are we making this happen. But Sina continues,
we eventually got to the dibic box room, and this
item in particular has a lot of drama around it.
(27:17):
You're right, it does. As Kevin Mannis has claimed this
to allegedly be a hoax. Whilst I can't approve or
deny this claim, I also wouldn't want to be known
as the depic box guy for the rest of my life.
You know. So it's a big debate regarding the story,
and I take it with a grain of salt. Good
you should. But I also know about the power of
belief and what it can do to an item with
(27:37):
enough focus put onto it. That's exactly right. I also
agree with that as like you're reading my mind writing
this out. Chrisina continues. My friend and I felt incredibly
sad rather than upset in the room as we were
being debriefed about the box. I thought someone brushed against
my leg before I realized I was standing in an
empty corner. This room I can't explain. But it's consuming,
(27:59):
not obsessed of, but more confusing, like it doesn't know
what it is supposed to be. It's sad, but angry
and annoying, all rolled up and locked away in one room.
I'm not white enough to be the idiot that opens
something with all that drama attached to it, she continues.
As we made our way back downstairs, my arm at
this point was absolutely in pain, but I was toughing
(28:19):
it out. At this point, I wasn't going to go home.
I was in it to win it. For the last stretch,
we then stopped at Bella Lugosi's mirror on the steps Earlier.
On the way up these same steps, my friend claimed
she slipped on a step, but felt like someone pushed
her forward so she didn't fall. I was behind her
and it wasn't me. Now standing directly across from the mirror,
(28:40):
I couldn't even hear the tour guide's voice as I
just stared into it and watched my figure vanished into
a black, thick fog enveloped in the mirror, until my
friend nudged me to continue down the stairs to keep
up with the tour. Lastly, we were introduced to Lily,
who was a small girl and a doll that has
real hair, and we and support Lily. She can do
(29:01):
no wrong. You're absolutely right. I always say this more
than supporting women's rights, I support women's wrongs, and Lily
I think she falls into the cryptid fam kind of category.
On sustyl, Christina continues that was just a taste of
the tour and after when we recapped at a crape
place later. Mmmm, crape sound good right now? My friend
pointed out that I had a circular bruise on my forearm,
(29:23):
forming roughly the size of a nickel. No nightmares, no
bleeding eyes, no scratches or mind bending horrors. We discussed
it in depth if we wanted to do the flashlight tour,
and sensing my friend was unsure, we gave it. A
few days before we went again by ourselves for the
flashlight tour and limited access in the dark for about
two hours. Now the price debatable, but was it worth
(29:44):
it for us? It was okay, you got your money's
worth good and this time I wore my cross. Good Christina,
thank you. But it didn't matter much. Oh my god. Okay,
she says. We were given free reign, but we didn't
even make it past the first quarter of the house,
and we certainly did want to start upstairs. We both
wandered around a lot, but eventually landed ourselves somehow downstairs
(30:05):
in Peggy's room. Nothing nada, not a peep. We leave,
someone else goes in with their group. They're getting words,
curse words, but words. We then went to Les sober
Shapiro's room, and whilst we didn't get much and I
don't recall much, my friend claims I suddenly went still
and told her something was touching me. She asked them
politely to stop, and then we were told by the
(30:27):
ghost to leave. We agreed and moved to the Demon
House room next door. What a great comforting title, very
welcome in inviting, which wasn't much more comforting. It called
out which on the spirit box, and when I said yes,
it told us one word dibbick, so ignoring that haha.
We said goodbye, and then we went to the Devil's
(30:48):
Rocking Chair room again, the names of these rooms so
warm and inviting, where we began asking questions. I eventually
asked if there was anything that we should know, and
it said dibbick incredibly loud and clear. Me and my
friend looked at one another like we were just sentenced
to life in funny jel. I asked if it wanted
us to go to the dibig Box room and it
(31:10):
said yes and then out. So we walked our terrified
asses up the stairs to one of the people working
monitoring upstairs and asked if we were okay to do
a session, which she agreed. We did ask if this
was normal to be asked to go to the room
by the spirits, and as she looked at us like
we had three heads, she said, I don't know, I've
never heard of that. I guess you'll have to find out.
(31:33):
So we stay in the waiting room, and as we
look to her for support, she's already gone big fear.
We began asking questions, not getting much, but we get
Jesus Christ very clear on the spirit box and I
feel for my chain, thankful it's still there, and reply
that yes, this time I'm wearing my cross and I
ask if it's the one that told me to take
(31:54):
it off last time. No response. I asked what it
wants to tell me? No response, this eerie feeling that
we know it wants us in the room next door
where the boxes we don't go in. We chicken the
fuck out, in fact, and go downstairs to say hi
to Lily for the tenth time that night. As we
pass back and forth, Lily can only answer yes or
(32:15):
no questions, typically using a little electromagnetic bell or something
of the sort. Once for yes, two for no type
of deal. At this point, a couple we learned had
struggled with the loss of their child, had been talking
to her for over an hour at this point, not
asking yes or no questions, but more personal ones that
I won't get into because they were very personal. Thank
you could se enough for respecting there, you know, their
(32:37):
tender moments, but definitely not something to ask a child
about death and belief. But as we said hello over
their spirit box, we hear my sister's name called out,
and as we look at one another in horror, we
move on, unable and unwilling to intertwine with that situation.
Further by Lily, we ask a group if we can
join them, explain it feels like something is following us.
(32:59):
They agree. We check our gear for a second and
turn around to see they left us. That is terrible.
You're like, hey, we're kind of scared. Can we hang
out with you? And they're like, yeah, sure, bye. Did
not wave for up. Maybe they were more scared than
you were, who knows. They didn't want to, Like you
said earlier, they didn't want to get intertwined with this
(33:19):
situationship you had with whatever spirit was talking with you.
Casina continues Hi Lily by Lily, we go to what
we called the Bunny Room also known as the Dennis
Hoff Room, and dear God, if a haunted bed with
a grotesque demon wasn't bad enough, four mirrors in one
room definitely made it worse. We were asking questions and
the EMF machine spiked for the first time that whole night,
(33:42):
as the ovulous tool began spouting words which which plane, malfunction, car,
which accident box, And just as we aren't getting anything
on the spirit box and begin leaving, the word contrition
comes up. At the time, we don't realize what it means,
and we jokingly ask if it can speak normal for us,
(34:03):
dumb it down a little simpleton ouch, mean, but not inaccurate.
What I realized later when we got back was that
my nieces had been baptized a few months prior, and
I was one of their godmothers. Okay, this is me
interrupting again. So for those of you who don't know
what contrition means, because I obviously knew, No I didn't,
I had to look it up to Contrican, according to Google,
(34:24):
is the state of feeling remorseful and penitent, or in
the Roman Catholic Church, the repentance of past sins or
after confession. Really quick blurb from Wikipedia here says and Christianity,
contritionan or contriteness, is repentance for sins one has committed.
The remorseful person is said to be contrite, a central
concept in much of Christianity. Contrition is regarded as the
(34:46):
first step through Christ towards reconciliation with God. So basically
just kind of making peace with your sins. Right, Chrisina
finishes up here. We decided to finish up in the
depig box room and we leave an offering as a
sign of peace. Fun fact, neither my friend or I
can remember what she offered, which I guess means they
really liked that. I left quarters enough for busfair like
(35:06):
paying for passage in the afterlife, which that's very nice.
But we finally went into the room and got only
more questions than answers. It definitely had been calling us back.
So after a few minutes of silence, I asked if
it wanted something from us? Yes? What did it want? Look?
You want us to look at you? Yes. For the
briefest instance, I look up, and I swear I saw
(35:30):
someone looking through the glass towards us from the inside
of the barrier. Friend is looking at the EMF as
I explained that whilst I appreciate the offer, we can't
even if we wanted, we can't get to you, and
we'll be leaving as an offering as a sign of
peace and to not follow us home. This is great.
You stood around, you set your boundary. Love that for you.
(35:50):
As soon as we do that and leave, heading down
the stairs, we feel a weight lift off our shoulders,
like the whole time we had someone piggybacking on us
the whole time. That is a terrifying feeling to this day.
I don't know what it had planned for me, but honestly,
if I ever get the chance, I would absolutely go again.
I'm trying to gather some friends to plan for the
(36:10):
next year or two for another trip. If you ever
get the chance, even to just do the rip tour.
It is really exciting and interesting. If I find the
photos I sent to my family group chat, I will
send it to you. It was pretty crazy. Let me
know what you think, Christina. Thank you so much, Christina.
This was amazing great and there are two photos here
that Christina sent. The first one you can see the
(36:32):
bruise very lightly forming and the second one you can
see like, oh yeah, there's definitely a spot there that
is creepy, creepy. She has a ps here, she said.
I also forgot to mention. At one point after Shapiro's room,
we began to head to Analisa's room, and I was
telling my friend how I didn't want to go into
the doll slash puppet rooms because they're freaky. That's correct,
they are freaky. As I mentioned that, I felt like
(36:55):
someone took a hammer and smashed my knee. I almost
hit the floor, but we kept going because it had
barely been thirty minutes of the Flashlight tour. It lasted
about a minut or two. But I definitely deserved that
just a little. You know, I'm not going to say
that you deserve physical, psychic, metaphysical attacks. That is a
wild I want to say, if I'm remembering correctly, that
(37:17):
Bethany and Leah the parnaval boutas they did this tour recently.
And when I say recently, I mean like last year
in twenty twenty four. At some point I'm gonna check,
but y'all should double check as well. It may have
been on their Patreon. I could be remembering Ron just
because it's you know, it's Zach Beggin's. But I want
to say they did the tour recently, if they've maybe
done it multiple times, I could be making stuff up.
(37:38):
I could just be spreading rumors. Actually, there's Zach's best friend.
That's what I heard. Pass it along now I'm kidding.
Thank you Christina so much for sending this in. Okay,
(38:00):
this is the last one and it's a pretty short one.
But I as always I and I mean it. I
appreciate every contribution that you all make. Two A letters
from the Beyond episode and this says Hi, I'm a
big fan of your podcast. Thank you me too. This
is from the scene. By the way, Nasim says, I
have a quick paranormal experience. I want to tell you
so one time I was in my bed at twelve
am and I was just laying on my bedside, on
(38:22):
my side. Then I heard my door open and close.
But the thing was that I heard no footsteps at all,
and I was so scared that I wouldn't turn over.
And to this day I hear weird sounds at night
and now I'm paranoid. Thank you, five stars, Thank you
so much for the five Stars. Hearing this email that
is so sweet. This reminds me of and I've told
this story before that time that I swear to this day,
(38:45):
I believe it that I heard a latusa outside of
my bedroom window. I was about to go open the blinds,
if you all remember the story, because I heard dogs
and then I heard the latusa and then I was
like nope, and I turned back around and I refused
to even face the window, and I was like, my
bed was up against the window. So it reminds me
kind of that, and this seems sense a follow up.
I asked them if they could expand on that, and
(39:05):
they said that they usually just hear creaks or thing
like that, but that one time they heard their mom
call them, and they asked her what she wanted, and
then she said that she didn't call them, so a
mimic or something, or an echo maybe of the energy.
You know how I think about these kinds of things.
All you'll maybe know that already that we all are
(39:26):
just kind of balls of energy leaving impressions, whether they're
true hauntings or not. You know that it could have
been that. You know, I've seen my mom in my
house before, and she's alive and well. Fake the heavens right,
So this could have been something like that, but who knows.
It could also be a mimic taking your mother's voice.
Thank you so much, Nasine for sending that in Ghoul friends,
(39:58):
Thank you so much once again for listening to this
Letters from the Beyond episode. Thank you for your patience
this last month and a half, almost two months. I
obviously didn't plan on getting sick. I didn't plan on
getting bronchitis. I think it is a podcaster's worst nightmare
to get sick in a way that affects your voice.
(40:20):
I still feel like my voice is not one hundred percent.
But I said, there's no way I cannot postpone this anymore.
I'm feeling well enough that I can finally sit down
and do something. I feel like I'm sounding close enough
to my regular self again that I can do this.
So again, thank you so much for listening. Thank you
so much for sending in your Letters from the Beyond again.

(42:12):
am every year with you here. I will talk to
you in the next one, and until then, not a
soustas bye. S
Hey, cool friends, it's me. Oh my god, I missed
you so much. Sorry, I'm already yelling Happy New Year.
Holy cow. It okay, So you all have been keeping up,
I'm sure, on social media at soost to podcast on
every platform. So I took Christmas break, right winter break.
(00:46):
I'm gonna explain to y'all what happened. I'm giving you
the full timeline. I took winter break, and then I
expected to just jump back into the new year. Happy
New Year, by the way, Oh my god. And then
I get home, New Year comes and goes. Mind you.
I had a cough the entire month of December, but
I figured a cedar a season was here, I got
(01:06):
cedar fever or something. It was just allergies. It was
a dry cough. Nothing. And then you're my doctor, by
the way, and I'm telling you all of this, and
then suddenly something has changed within me. I loved Wicked,
by the way. I don't know if you can tell.
And then the cough was different. It was now, sorry
to be gross, but it was a wet cough. It
(01:27):
was productive. There was stuff happening. I could suddenly feel
a rattling while I was breathing, and I said, this
is not just an allergy cough anymore. This has progressed
into something else, which apparently is something that can happen
if you have allergies bad enough. Bronchitis is an opportunistic
infection spoiler alert. And then I went to the doctor
and they said, hey, you have bronchitis. So I was
(01:47):
put on like a stronger cough medicine and an inhaler.
I finally just started to sound like myself a couple
days ago. And when I meet a couple days ago,
I hit the ground running as soon as I can. Literally, no,
I didn't even think about it, and no pun intended,
as you may have also seen on my Instagram stories,
and I think I posted about it on Blue Sky.
I ran for the first time a half marathon, and
(02:10):
if you all have been following me for a while,
I think I spoke about it before where I started
running and it was amazing. I'm I'm like deceptively a natural.
I'm sorry, you're gonna get a bunch of bs before
we get into today's episode. So if you don't want to,
if you do not, if you hate me, just say
that and skip ahead. But by the way, this is
also a video episode for I Am All over the Place.
I'm so sorry. This is a video episode for Best
(02:32):
Ghoul Friends on Patreon Patroon dot com'l Sustal podcast. So
I'm looking at you writing your eyes right now. I'm
telling you all of this. But okay, So I started running.
I'm deceptively a natural athlete. I don't know what it is.
I picked it up and I said, you know what,
I'm going to run a half marathon this year with
the encouragement of family and friends, and I signed up
for it months ago. It rolls around and I because
(02:56):
of this cough and that turned into bronchitis, I was
not able to train. The last time I had run,
I ran like six miles and I didn't train at all,
basically because this cough and bronchitis knocked me on my ass.
There was no way I could train like that. But
I was like, you know what, I paid for this,
Let me go. My goal will be to finish it,
at least at the very least I can finish it, y'all.
(03:18):
Why did I run eleven and a half out of
those thirteen point one miles. I'm literally a demon. You
cannot kill me. You cannot keep me down, because again
I just started to sound like myself. And then I said, Okay,
I think I can do this. I'll take the inhaler
with me. Worst case scenario, it's the Austin International Half.
They have everything taken care of thought through. Worst case scenario,
(03:42):
I get a ride from the EMT and then that's
it and I try again next year. So I went
for it, and I did amazing. I did a sub
three if that means I did it under three hours,
if that means anything to anybody. I think my official
tag time was two hours forty six minutes. So yes,
thank you so much. Please, I you should clap exactly.
And I am no all jokes aside. I am so
(04:04):
proud of myself that I even did it. Maybe a
bad idea. I feel fine now. This was two three
days ago. And when I say I feel fine, I
mean I feel like I'm breathing fine. I feel like
it didn't worsen my condition. I am extremely sore. Yes,
my feet were killing me. My I have the hips
of a ninety five year old right now. But I
did it, and I'm so proud of myself, and I
(04:25):
absolutely cried at the finish line. I also there's pictures.
I'll throw them here in the video. I might post
them online later. But yeah, I just so entering twenty
twenty five on like a low note by getting sick
and then skyrocketing as soon as I was given the opportunity.
So that's what this year is going to be. If
I don't want there to be. But if there happened
(04:45):
to be low points, that is only going to be
followed by me shooting straight up from hell like a
bat out of hell. I'm telling you, I ran like
hell all that to say I missed you. I missed this.
Every time I take a break, even if it's one
episode that I take off, I'm like, oh, I miss
it so much. But the fact that I took the
(05:05):
month of December off, And thank you so much to
everyone who did a feed swap with me, and I
hope you all enjoyed those shows. I hope you discovered
someone new, I hope you were reminded of someone whatever
it is, I just I really hope you enjoyed that.
And please feel free to send in your recommendations for
next year. I took that month off. I didn't expect
to take an extra basically another month. We are at
the end of January, which is mind blowing to me.
(05:28):
We're the last two weeks of January. So thank you
so much for your patience. It honestly, it means so
much to me because every time I have to take
time off that is unplanned, it like, it's devastating to me.
I feel terrible about it. But you all are amazing
at reminding me that although yes I am a monster,
I'm a demon, I am also still human. There is
(05:48):
a human inside here somewhere that I need to take
care of, and I really, really truly appreciate every time
that you all remind me about that. So thank you
so much for returning. And if this is your first time, sorry,
you just got the full display of what's happening in here.
By the way, do you like my horns? If you're
watching this on Patreon, you may have seen them also
(06:09):
in the last movie night I was also I went
live randomly on TikTok to show like, hey, I'm live
on doing you know whatever. Anyway, new headphones, new horns, hoodas.
Thank you so much for being here, Thank you for returning.

favorite kinds of episodes to do. It is a Letters
from the Beyond episode. I'm so excited to tell your stories.

This is new. Actually I finally officially launched like one
set place as a catch all, so I will still
accept stories media, you know, all that stuff that you
want to send in that you think I should share
on an episode or on social media the ways that
I've accepted them before. But you can also visit either
(06:54):
my website or my link tree which is linktr dot
ee slash Sustal podcast. There isn't a fit Letters from
the Beyond Google form, So you go in there and
when I say official, it is official. You go in
there putting you information, your story. If you have photo, video,
any sort of like multimedia to share, there's a spot
in there for you to drop it in there. So

year and getting a little bit more official. So once again,
please feel free to sending your stories that way or
your media. I will of course accept it the other ways.
But this is kind of the official pipeline that I'm
moving forward with before we actually jump into the episode.

five star rating or positive review with your story. Hey,
feel free to still do that. It's okay, you can
still just do it for funzies. It's fun. Everyone's doing it.

it's free, So feel free to interact with the show

(07:58):
You already know it one more time, Happy New Year,
Welcome officially to twenty twenty five. It is so good
to talk to you, to see you if you're watching. Yeah,
we're gonna go ahead and jump into today's letters from
the Beyond. Okay, so this first story is from hose
(08:29):
and he titled it a sleep paralysis story. So already ooh,
super into it. And Hossa says, hey, Adrian, I've been
hooked on the podcast Let's Not Meet, and I remember
sharing this story with them, but it's more horror ghost
like while their pod is more about real life creeps.
So definitely feel free to check them out. Eventually, I
got to your podcast as a recommendation and have binging
(08:50):
it from the beginning. Thank you Hossas so much. I'm
not too far in, but saw you talk about sleep paralysis,
so thought i'd share this one with you. Yes I do.
I have an episode on sleep paralysis slash La Pisa
Veira or the night Hag, which if I'm remember incorrectly
is from Brazilian folklore, the version that I told on
Susto Jose continues keep diving into the Latin horrors. Love
(09:14):
this idea. I think it's a good idea too. Hose
still think La Mano pelula ILOs Luendez fucked me up
as a kid. Same Colombian horror stories were my childhood,
so this is cool to see how similar but different
some Mexican folk tales are and how it might be
called something slightly different exactly. That's the whole point of
the show is we connect over our cultures, no matter
(09:35):
how different they may be. Sometimes they intersect it in
really really cool ways, so thank you for pointing that
out onto the story. I have always been a horror
of ficionado with a wild imagination as a kid, so
I know this can be what caused these night terrors
to occur. More frequently as a child. I remember vivid
moments where I would be frozen in my bed while
hearing loud ringing in my ear, things such as whispers
(09:59):
getting louder and louder to the point of indistinguishable gibberish.
The more panicked I would get, I say panicked, because
there was no way for me to move, let alone
get in a deep breath. This was before I ever
knew of the sleep paralysis having a name. I also
noticed to the more you try to move, the more
it feels like there are ropes tied around you, holding
(10:19):
you down to the bed and getting tighter and tighter.
Netflix has a decent movie called Nightmare that explains this
phenomenon much more in depth, but when it occurred to me,
I had no clue it was normal for others to
feel it as well. It's as if you do not
ever remember falling asleep, so your mind drifts from being
very sleepy to being extremely lucid and terrified at the
(10:41):
fact that something feels wrong. You cannot move your body,
only your eyes, and the more you try to fight
the paralysis, the more panic sets in. I believe this
panic is what caused us to conjure up the darkest thoughts,
which manifest what people say as a dark figure, alien, demon,
or whatnot. Fast forward from age about nine to high school.
(11:03):
In high school, this became a frequent occurrence where I
began to think I was being possessed or something was
trying to contact me. From just being paralyzed and seeing
a tombstone appear near the foot of my bed, to
waking up with bruises from where the tightness would be
where I would try to move. There were even moments
where I saw my mother open my bedroom door while
(11:23):
I would try to scream for help, and when I
eventually woke up, I'd go to my parents mad that
they didn't help, and they would say they never came
into my room and that I have been quietly sleeping
the whole time. This usually only occurred when I was
extremely exhausted during the day, such as coming back from
the pool or beach and just wanting to crash. The
easier it was to fall asleep, the faster these paralysis
(11:46):
moments would come. High school started taking a toll on
me after my track practices, where I would be terrified
to even take a nap. Fast forward again from high
school to age twenty three. I had just began dating
my now wife and we decided to go for a
weekend to Philadelphia. We decided to stay in Old City
Philly in a hotel room that seemed ancient but clean
(12:07):
and nice. It gave the vibe that this was standing
here since the seventeen hundreds, so a lot of history
was here. We eventually got tired after exploring the town
all day and drinking, once we decided to go to bed.
This part is important. I was on the left, wife
on the right. If you are looking at the bed
from the foot of the bed, there was a simple
dresser that was half empty in the top portion with
(12:28):
an old TV system in it. Therefore, the doors needed
to be open to see the TV, and the bottom
was drawers for clothes. I have also been somewhat of
an arcalptic, so I can fall into deep sleep in
a matter of minutes. We went to bed without watching TV,
so the dresser doors were closed. This was just like
any other night until I recall closing my eyes to bed,
(12:51):
then waking up in swapped places where I am now
on the right side and she is on the left.
Another important detail is that the entrance door to our
room was closer to the left side of the bed,
which is why I chose to sleep on that side
in case anyone broke in paranoid person being raised in
a not so safe neighborhood, and the door had one
of those chain locks as well as the usual top
(13:13):
bolt lock. What I saw still gives me goosebumps to
this day. I opened my eyes and immediately knew I
was in one of my sleep paralysis dreams because the
dresser was open, the TV was playing old reruns of
The Simpsons, and all the lights were off. My wife
is usually very scared of old places and tends to
feel presences or bad energy, while I, on the other hand,
(13:37):
am oblivious to these sort of things and purposely go
to old places to spook myself out. But she likes
to at least keep one light on at all times.
Let's just say I got what I was asking for.
As soon as I'd look around the room, I begin
to see our doorknob wiggling as if someone is trying
to get in, and I begin to panic. I knew
(13:57):
this was a dream, but at the moment, it's hard
to come down the mind to snap out of it,
so I closed my eyes and began to pray, but
then came the noisy chatter in my head. I opened
my eyes, hoping it was over, but now I see
that the door was opened slightly, but the chain was
still holding it closed. I began to see a dark
(14:18):
shadow of a hand with claws trying to get its
way in to unlock the chain, and panic began to
rise further, making me want to throw up once again.
I closed my eyes and started to try to kick
my body awake. This is where it's countless of times before,
and I wake up screaming, but it takes time to
fight the exhaustion and paralysis. When I opened my eyes
(14:39):
once more, the shadow figure was now in our room,
just staring right at me, but it was hard to
tell since it was the figure of a woman with
long hair and the only detail of her face was
light white. Eyes. Eyes closed again, open them up again,
and now she is standing right next to my wife,
who was sound asleep. But she begins to slowly inch
(15:03):
over to her to get to me, and begins to
whisper my wife's name. That was about all my horror
fanatic self can take, as I forced all my muscles
to contract as much as I can to explosively jolt up.
This startled my wife, since now I am sitting right up, screaming, sweating.
(15:26):
The light is still on in our room, and now
she's trying to calm me down. But I'm once again
woken up on the left side of the bed where
she just was, and I try not to tell her
what I just saw, but told her no way in
hell am I going back to sleep. I checked the
doors and everything was locked. The dresser door was closed,
t be off, and nothing was out of the ordinary.
(15:49):
Usually when I have these episodes, nothing changes in the room,
but this was the first and only time where things
were completely switched and didn't match the setting. Maybe this
my I intrigue someone to come and stay in a
hotel in Old City Philly, since it still sometimes calls
me back for the thrill of the fright. It's been
years since I have had sleep paralysis happen, thank God,
(16:11):
but low key kind of miss it. Josse, Josse, you
are wild for missing sleep paralysis. I can't. I can't yet.
I can't remember the last time that I've had sleep prolysis,
nor do I want to, nor do I miss it?
So something's wrong with you? No, I'm kidding. That is intense.
This is a really intense story of sleep proalysis. This
(16:31):
feels like it was drawn out over such a long
period of time when I've experienced it, and do you
all let me know if it's been different for you.
But whenever I've experienced it, it's been in like short
kind of bursts and only like once throughout the night, thankfully,
But it never feels more than a couple minutes, more
than like three five minutes. This sounds like this took
(16:53):
a long time, which is terrifying. Thank you so much
for sending this in. I did ask quosea he remembered
the name of the hotel that they stayed in, but
he couldn't remember because it had been so long, it
had been so many years since that trip. But it
was in Old City Philly, which he says is a
common area that has super old buildings and historical places.
(17:13):
So if you all are interested in experiencing your own
sleep paralysis experience, apparently Old City Philly is where it's at.
Thank you, Jose Okay. This next story is from Autumn
(17:38):
and her subject line is just spooky story perfect simple,
love it Autumn and Autumn says hey, Aiden slash Adrian,
whichever you prefer. Either way. My whole life, I've been
interested in spooky stuff. My dad was also this way
and would always tell me stories from when he was
a kid slash teenager. As you've said, it's very common
in the Hispanic culture. I wanted to share one of
(18:00):
his stories with you that always stuck with me. For context,
my great grandparents immigrated from Mexico to West Texas and
my grandma grew up in poverty. When she got married
to my grandfather, they stayed on my great grandparents property
for a long time. This piece of property is small
and still in the family. My great grandfather had a
reputation of being a quote evil man. He was abusive,
(18:23):
and my great grandmother, grandmother, and my great aunts everyone
would say he practiced black magic. He died before I
was born, so I didn't know him. Because of him
being abusive, My grandma never talked about him, so I
never asked what quote black magic meant to them. When
I asked my aunts, they said they never wanted to know,
so they didn't ask. So with that context, as a teenager,
(18:44):
my dad and grandparents still lived on my great grandparents property.
One night, he and his friends were sitting out on
the front porch that faced a fence line that was
next to some trees and brush. They were sitting outside
smoking cigarettes talking when they heard something move off to
the side of the house. My dad said he looked
over and saw something big, standing on two legs, and
(19:06):
it was tall. He said it had to be six
feet tall. He said all he could see were the eyes,
which were bright red, and he and his friends froze,
and this thing ran past the porch and jumped the fence. Obviously,
he and his friends were terrified and ran into the house.
The next morning, my grandma and great grandma went outside
and found large hoof prints from the area where they
(19:29):
first saw the thing all the way to the fence line.
My grandma called the kids out to see and confirm
what my dad saw, so he doesn't know what it was.
I think that property has a lot of evil attached
to it because of my great grandfather. A witch in
our town was also paid to try and curse our
family because of him. My dad also said after his
(19:50):
grandfather died, he always saw his ghost walking around the
property In his quote white wife beater or white tank top.
He said he knew it had to to be a
ghost because every time he would walk the same path
and turn and disappear into one of the walls outside
of the house. The tank top shirt was something he
wore every day in life, so my dad knew it
(20:11):
was him. My grandmother lived in a house on that
property until she died there when I was in high school.
I have my own experience in her house. I could
share too, but this email is super long already. I
hope you enjoyed autumn Autumn. That email was not long
at all. Please send more. I think I reached out
to you and I said to keep them coming, So
if you hear this, thank you so much for sending
(20:31):
that in. I actually did also read this episode on
a crossover that I did with Carmen and Cristina from
Spooky Tails and Laney from Its Haunted What Now and
True Crank Cases with Laney kind of as a soft
launch for our new podcast, Quancihito's Anonymous, So feel free
to follow that on Instagram and check it out. We
may or may not have just recorded something, so keep
your eyes and ears open for that. Yeah. I think
(20:53):
what I remember talking about this story is it's so
it was very interesting this idea of your great ground
father in a way kind of like protecting the property
from whatever that thing may have been, or maybe that
thing was him, or maybe the kind of magic that
he did summoned this thing. And it was very into
(21:13):
this interesting take of like he's protecting the property in
the family, although he, like you said, he was abusive
in his life, but it's that kind of mentality of like, no,
only I can abuse these It's weird to say, but
like you know, these are my people to abuse. Is
kind of the way that I've seen abusers thinking portrayed
or like document it is. There's that ego kind of
(21:35):
territorial This is mine. I get to do what I
want with it, not you, right either way, Autumn, thank
you so much for sending that in this against seeing
this six foot tall dark figure at night and just
bright red eyes. I'm not a demon, doctor, Okay, I
simply am one, But that sounds like a demon to me.
It's giving me chills just thinking about it. I don't
(21:56):
want to think about seeing that ever. Okay, this is
another great one from Christina. Christina, thank you so much
(22:17):
for sending this in. This is a really like Christina
documented a really creepy night at the Zach Bagans Haunted
Museum on a trip that she took so very excited
to read this one to you because it's intense. I
had Oh my god, reading through this was like creepy
to me. But anyway, Prisina says, hey, Aiden, I would
love to recap these stories to you. I think it
will give you a fun little chill up your spine.
(22:39):
It sure did, she says, so September sixteenth, we went
to the Haunted Museum and did the rip tour. Me
my friend and her mom of course, did the usual
jokes on the way of us being zach Begans and
how I never believed in ghost until we saw someone
say they saw one. Funny little jokes like that For context,
my friend is Catholic and I am a practitioner with
a vague leaf system, but we both absolutely rolled up
(23:02):
with crosses good idea or well for the beginning. I
don't know if I would call myself a sensitive, but
I always have had incidents that happened around me, and
I could never explain things disappearing the moment I put
them down, seeing people that weren't there for brief moments
all through my life, dreams that could predict things days
or years in advance. But once we entered the waiting room,
(23:24):
one thing flooded my brain as I adjusted the crosschain
on my neck. Take it off, Take it off, Take
it off, take it off, take it off. So I did.
I'm gonna pause right there, Casina. If I went to
a haunted museum and then I suddenly heard something telling
me to take off whatever symbol of protection I have on.
(23:44):
I'm not doing that, sister, But you are. You are
different than me, You are different from me. So, hey,
you did it, and I'm glad that you lived to
send this story in. But I just wanted to, Hey,
flag on the play really quick for me, Crisina continues.
So I did, and boy did I get what I
was looking for? What did I say? We started in
(24:04):
a room for Annalise Michelle and listening to the recording
as you stared at the exorcism kit used on her
in a room that was made to look like a
dark church, it stirred something in me where I couldn't
really look away from the box till we were instructed
to go through a tunnel that had no lights and
told to watch our hands and not to touch anything.
I fumbled along the wall feeling for it, and when
(24:26):
I got to the edge, I felt some fabric, looking
up to see I had grabbed onto the sleeve of
a puppet with my right hand and pulled away. It
was a damn room full of puppets. I'm not a
big dollphan, Christina neither am I. As the tour progressed,
my pinky and ring finger on my right hand began
to tingle, and thinking it was my adorable little Koki
(24:46):
purse cutting off circulation to my arm, I shifted it over.
It didn't really work. In fact, it began to move
up my hand in a numbing pins and needles feeling.
As we eventually went down to the basement, where we
had to walk over a p pentagram on the floor
as a spirit box ran in the background. We were
told that if we heard our names to say something
(25:07):
immediately because then we were in trouble. Whilst I didn't
hear anything, I thought I heard my friend's name, but
I couldn't be sure, so I didn't mention it. Christina
paused flag another flag on the play, I would have
said something. She says she didn't hear it either, but
her mother definitely did and she didn't mention it till
(25:27):
after we left. Walking over the Pentagram, I felt like
gravity had momentarily shifted, and I don't recall much down
there besides that, it was cramped and dark, and we
all left shortly after or we would get into trouble
as we were timed. Once we got to the second floor,
the pins and needles had gone up to my bicep
and my pinky and ring finger started to hurt. I
mentioned it to my friend, but we were both in
(25:49):
it to win it. We had heard people got escorted
out for less than this, and it was too soon.
And let me tell you, this place was covered wall
to wall in items this man has bought or been
donated to him, tribal items, statues, sacrificial tools, skeletons, a
lion head, a skin suit, the chair for Michael Jackson's room,
Patrick Swayzey's tooth, so much Serial Killer memorabilia, and the mirrors,
(26:13):
gods above and below the mirrors. But we ended up
in Peggy's room, and besides irritation, I didn't get much
from her. In fact, she didn't say anything. There is
also the room that has the severed head of a man,
but I couldn't bring myself to look at it. The
room was so intense and dark that I couldn't do it.
My friend did say he looked a little dry and
(26:34):
needed a bit of lotion, though, so that was kind
of funny. Oh my god, not you all reading this
poor person's head. I wonder this is not in the story,
but me, Aiden, I wonder, what is the process of
getting these things, you know, or keeping them on display.
I'm like, there has to be some because I know,
like with skulls, for example, like human skulls, real human
skulls that people collect or trade or whatever, there's laws
(26:56):
around that. And so I'm like, a severed head, like
is it real? Is it? Like I I don't know.
I'm just I'm very curious about, like, Okay, what's the
paperwork behind this? Like I'm just thinking of the logistics
about how are we making this happen. But Sina continues,
we eventually got to the dibic box room, and this
item in particular has a lot of drama around it.
(27:17):
You're right, it does. As Kevin Mannis has claimed this
to allegedly be a hoax. Whilst I can't approve or
deny this claim, I also wouldn't want to be known
as the depic box guy for the rest of my life.
You know. So it's a big debate regarding the story,
and I take it with a grain of salt. Good
you should. But I also know about the power of
belief and what it can do to an item with
(27:37):
enough focus put onto it. That's exactly right. I also
agree with that as like you're reading my mind writing
this out. Chrisina continues. My friend and I felt incredibly
sad rather than upset in the room as we were
being debriefed about the box. I thought someone brushed against
my leg before I realized I was standing in an
empty corner. This room I can't explain. But it's consuming,
(27:59):
not obsessed of, but more confusing, like it doesn't know
what it is supposed to be. It's sad, but angry
and annoying, all rolled up and locked away in one room.
I'm not white enough to be the idiot that opens
something with all that drama attached to it, she continues.
As we made our way back downstairs, my arm at
this point was absolutely in pain, but I was toughing
(28:19):
it out. At this point, I wasn't going to go home.
I was in it to win it. For the last stretch,
we then stopped at Bella Lugosi's mirror on the steps Earlier.
On the way up these same steps, my friend claimed
she slipped on a step, but felt like someone pushed
her forward so she didn't fall. I was behind her
and it wasn't me. Now standing directly across from the mirror,
(28:40):
I couldn't even hear the tour guide's voice as I
just stared into it and watched my figure vanished into
a black, thick fog enveloped in the mirror, until my
friend nudged me to continue down the stairs to keep
up with the tour. Lastly, we were introduced to Lily,
who was a small girl and a doll that has
real hair, and we and support Lily. She can do
(29:01):
no wrong. You're absolutely right. I always say this more
than supporting women's rights, I support women's wrongs, and Lily
I think she falls into the cryptid fam kind of category.
On sustyl, Christina continues that was just a taste of
the tour and after when we recapped at a crape
place later. Mmmm, crape sound good right now? My friend
pointed out that I had a circular bruise on my forearm,
(29:23):
forming roughly the size of a nickel. No nightmares, no
bleeding eyes, no scratches or mind bending horrors. We discussed
it in depth if we wanted to do the flashlight tour,
and sensing my friend was unsure, we gave it. A
few days before we went again by ourselves for the
flashlight tour and limited access in the dark for about
two hours. Now the price debatable, but was it worth
(29:44):
it for us? It was okay, you got your money's
worth good and this time I wore my cross. Good Christina,
thank you. But it didn't matter much. Oh my god. Okay,
she says. We were given free reign, but we didn't
even make it past the first quarter of the house,
and we certainly did want to start upstairs. We both
wandered around a lot, but eventually landed ourselves somehow downstairs
(30:05):
in Peggy's room. Nothing nada, not a peep. We leave,
someone else goes in with their group. They're getting words,
curse words, but words. We then went to Les sober
Shapiro's room, and whilst we didn't get much and I
don't recall much, my friend claims I suddenly went still
and told her something was touching me. She asked them
politely to stop, and then we were told by the
(30:27):
ghost to leave. We agreed and moved to the Demon
House room next door. What a great comforting title, very
welcome in inviting, which wasn't much more comforting. It called
out which on the spirit box, and when I said yes,
it told us one word dibbick, so ignoring that haha.
We said goodbye, and then we went to the Devil's
(30:48):
Rocking Chair room again, the names of these rooms so
warm and inviting, where we began asking questions. I eventually
asked if there was anything that we should know, and
it said dibbick incredibly loud and clear. Me and my
friend looked at one another like we were just sentenced
to life in funny jel. I asked if it wanted
us to go to the dibig Box room and it
(31:10):
said yes and then out. So we walked our terrified
asses up the stairs to one of the people working
monitoring upstairs and asked if we were okay to do
a session, which she agreed. We did ask if this
was normal to be asked to go to the room
by the spirits, and as she looked at us like
we had three heads, she said, I don't know, I've
never heard of that. I guess you'll have to find out.
(31:33):
So we stay in the waiting room, and as we
look to her for support, she's already gone big fear.
We began asking questions, not getting much, but we get
Jesus Christ very clear on the spirit box and I
feel for my chain, thankful it's still there, and reply
that yes, this time I'm wearing my cross and I
ask if it's the one that told me to take
(31:54):
it off last time. No response. I asked what it
wants to tell me? No response, this eerie feeling that
we know it wants us in the room next door
where the boxes we don't go in. We chicken the
fuck out, in fact, and go downstairs to say hi
to Lily for the tenth time that night. As we
pass back and forth, Lily can only answer yes or
(32:15):
no questions, typically using a little electromagnetic bell or something
of the sort. Once for yes, two for no type
of deal. At this point, a couple we learned had
struggled with the loss of their child, had been talking
to her for over an hour at this point, not
asking yes or no questions, but more personal ones that
I won't get into because they were very personal. Thank
you could se enough for respecting there, you know, their
(32:37):
tender moments, but definitely not something to ask a child
about death and belief. But as we said hello over
their spirit box, we hear my sister's name called out,
and as we look at one another in horror, we
move on, unable and unwilling to intertwine with that situation.
Further by Lily, we ask a group if we can
join them, explain it feels like something is following us.
(32:59):
They agree. We check our gear for a second and
turn around to see they left us. That is terrible.
You're like, hey, we're kind of scared. Can we hang
out with you? And they're like, yeah, sure, bye. Did
not wave for up. Maybe they were more scared than
you were, who knows. They didn't want to, Like you
said earlier, they didn't want to get intertwined with this
(33:19):
situationship you had with whatever spirit was talking with you.
Casina continues Hi Lily by Lily, we go to what
we called the Bunny Room also known as the Dennis
Hoff Room, and dear God, if a haunted bed with
a grotesque demon wasn't bad enough, four mirrors in one
room definitely made it worse. We were asking questions and
the EMF machine spiked for the first time that whole night,
(33:42):
as the ovulous tool began spouting words which which plane, malfunction, car,
which accident box, And just as we aren't getting anything
on the spirit box and begin leaving, the word contrition
comes up. At the time, we don't realize what it means,
and we jokingly ask if it can speak normal for us,
(34:03):
dumb it down a little simpleton ouch, mean, but not inaccurate.
What I realized later when we got back was that
my nieces had been baptized a few months prior, and
I was one of their godmothers. Okay, this is me
interrupting again. So for those of you who don't know
what contrition means, because I obviously knew, No I didn't,
I had to look it up to Contrican, according to Google,
(34:24):
is the state of feeling remorseful and penitent, or in
the Roman Catholic Church, the repentance of past sins or
after confession. Really quick blurb from Wikipedia here says and Christianity,
contritionan or contriteness, is repentance for sins one has committed.
The remorseful person is said to be contrite, a central
concept in much of Christianity. Contrition is regarded as the
(34:46):
first step through Christ towards reconciliation with God. So basically
just kind of making peace with your sins. Right, Chrisina
finishes up here. We decided to finish up in the
depig box room and we leave an offering as a
sign of peace. Fun fact, neither my friend or I
can remember what she offered, which I guess means they
really liked that. I left quarters enough for busfair like
(35:06):
paying for passage in the afterlife, which that's very nice.
But we finally went into the room and got only
more questions than answers. It definitely had been calling us back.
So after a few minutes of silence, I asked if
it wanted something from us? Yes? What did it want? Look?
You want us to look at you? Yes. For the
briefest instance, I look up, and I swear I saw
(35:30):
someone looking through the glass towards us from the inside
of the barrier. Friend is looking at the EMF as
I explained that whilst I appreciate the offer, we can't
even if we wanted, we can't get to you, and
we'll be leaving as an offering as a sign of
peace and to not follow us home. This is great.
You stood around, you set your boundary. Love that for you.
(35:50):
As soon as we do that and leave, heading down
the stairs, we feel a weight lift off our shoulders,
like the whole time we had someone piggybacking on us
the whole time. That is a terrifying feeling to this day.
I don't know what it had planned for me, but honestly,
if I ever get the chance, I would absolutely go again.
I'm trying to gather some friends to plan for the
(36:10):
next year or two for another trip. If you ever
get the chance, even to just do the rip tour.
It is really exciting and interesting. If I find the
photos I sent to my family group chat, I will
send it to you. It was pretty crazy. Let me
know what you think, Christina. Thank you so much, Christina.
This was amazing great and there are two photos here
that Christina sent. The first one you can see the
(36:32):
bruise very lightly forming and the second one you can
see like, oh yeah, there's definitely a spot there that
is creepy, creepy. She has a ps here, she said.
I also forgot to mention. At one point after Shapiro's room,
we began to head to Analisa's room, and I was
telling my friend how I didn't want to go into
the doll slash puppet rooms because they're freaky. That's correct,
they are freaky. As I mentioned that, I felt like
(36:55):
someone took a hammer and smashed my knee. I almost
hit the floor, but we kept going because it had
barely been thirty minutes of the Flashlight tour. It lasted
about a minut or two. But I definitely deserved that
just a little. You know, I'm not going to say
that you deserve physical, psychic, metaphysical attacks. That is a
wild I want to say, if I'm remembering correctly, that
(37:17):
Bethany and Leah the parnaval boutas they did this tour recently.
And when I say recently, I mean like last year
in twenty twenty four. At some point I'm gonna check,
but y'all should double check as well. It may have
been on their Patreon. I could be remembering Ron just
because it's you know, it's Zach Beggin's. But I want
to say they did the tour recently, if they've maybe
done it multiple times, I could be making stuff up.
(37:38):
I could just be spreading rumors. Actually, there's Zach's best friend.
That's what I heard. Pass it along now I'm kidding.
Thank you Christina so much for sending this in. Okay,
(38:00):
this is the last one and it's a pretty short one.
But I as always I and I mean it. I
appreciate every contribution that you all make. Two A letters
from the Beyond episode and this says Hi, I'm a
big fan of your podcast. Thank you me too. This
is from the scene. By the way, Nasim says, I
have a quick paranormal experience. I want to tell you
so one time I was in my bed at twelve
am and I was just laying on my bedside, on
(38:22):
my side. Then I heard my door open and close.
But the thing was that I heard no footsteps at all,
and I was so scared that I wouldn't turn over.
And to this day I hear weird sounds at night
and now I'm paranoid. Thank you, five stars, Thank you
so much for the five Stars. Hearing this email that
is so sweet. This reminds me of and I've told
this story before that time that I swear to this day,
(38:45):
I believe it that I heard a latusa outside of
my bedroom window. I was about to go open the blinds,
if you all remember the story, because I heard dogs
and then I heard the latusa and then I was
like nope, and I turned back around and I refused
to even face the window, and I was like, my
bed was up against the window. So it reminds me
kind of that, and this seems sense a follow up.
I asked them if they could expand on that, and
(39:05):
they said that they usually just hear creaks or thing
like that, but that one time they heard their mom
call them, and they asked her what she wanted, and
then she said that she didn't call them, so a
mimic or something, or an echo maybe of the energy.
You know how I think about these kinds of things.
All you'll maybe know that already that we all are
(39:26):
just kind of balls of energy leaving impressions, whether they're
true hauntings or not. You know that it could have
been that. You know, I've seen my mom in my
house before, and she's alive and well. Fake the heavens right,
So this could have been something like that, but who knows.
It could also be a mimic taking your mother's voice.
Thank you so much, Nasine for sending that in Ghoul friends,

Thank you so much once again for listening to this
Letters from the Beyond episode. Thank you for your patience
this last month and a half, almost two months. I
obviously didn't plan on getting sick. I didn't plan on
getting bronchitis. I think it is a podcaster's worst nightmare
to get sick in a way that affects your voice.
(40:20):
I still feel like my voice is not one hundred percent.
But I said, there's no way I cannot postpone this anymore.
I'm feeling well enough that I can finally sit down
and do something. I feel like I'm sounding close enough
to my regular self again that I can do this.
So again, thank you so much for listening. Thank you
so much for sending in your Letters from the Beyond again.
