Speaker 1 (00:00):
You're listening to Later with Moe Kelly on demand from
KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 2 (00:10):
Now it's viral Motte with Tiffany li Canes. Later with Mooky.
She'll talk about this on social media with Tiffany Hubbs.

Speaker 3 (00:28):
Sixty is later with mo Kelly. Let's get to the
viral load with Tiffany Hobbs.

Speaker 4 (00:33):
Let's do it. Young people love a catchphrase. Social media
has a lot of them. And what's the newest one
that's gone viral or going viral on TikTok. Well, it's
called under consumption core, under consumption core.

Speaker 5 (00:51):
What the heck is that? We'll let me tell you.

Speaker 4 (00:54):
The under consumption core catchphrase is a trend that represents
basically a significant shift in consumer spending and ideas around materialism.
You have young people on TikTok who are pushing back
against materialism and saying that they feel very pressured by
all of the social media advertising and all of the

(01:17):
again societal pressures to purchase and buy different trends, that
they are overwhelmed and want to completely again push back
against it in a way to be more minimalist, in
a way to be more frugal. Some might even call
it a bit cheap, but it's all about them monitoring
and managing their spending and their materialism. And again they've

(01:40):
given it this entire title called under consumption Core.

Speaker 5 (01:46):
I can just call it spending less. Damn why noting
it complicated because.

Speaker 4 (01:49):
You can't brand spending less nearly as cutely as you
can under consumption core mode social media too many syllables,
too many syllables, and they seem to know them because
this is the newest viral trend and there's a financial influence.
Surnamed Kara Perez, who says that it highlights again the
growing dissatisfaction with constant consumer pressure. She says that kids

(02:15):
are tired of being told to spend their money. Their
money is disposable on one end because they're not working
to earn it.

Speaker 5 (02:21):
They're getting the money.

Speaker 3 (02:24):
Kids are being tired of being told to spend their money.
They're tired of being told not to spend their money.
They need to make up their damn minds.

Speaker 5 (02:33):
They're tired. They're just tired.

Speaker 4 (02:35):
And because they're tired, this is the newest thing they're
latching on to. There could be worse things they're latching
on too, and I'll tell you about that in the
next story. But this one under consumption Core is gaining
traction as kids seek an alternative to excess and materialism,
which is frequently promoted on platforms like TikTok. The next

(02:55):
story is about spending your money just wrongly dangerously.

Speaker 5 (03:01):
Guys, watch your kids and if.

Speaker 4 (03:03):
They ask you for Jolly Ranchers before warned, pay very
close attention because there is a new viral sensation, a
new viral recipe which involves the very popular rock candy
Jolly Ranchers.

Speaker 5 (03:19):
All lead, not Lean, because I know about Lean.

Speaker 4 (03:22):
No, they're not using alcohol for this, although I imagine
you could now that I think about it.

Speaker 5 (03:26):
But in this way, it's a little bit more innocent.

Speaker 4 (03:29):
However, extremely dangerous because what they're doing is making this
candy in the microwave. It's called candy grapes, like the
fruit that we enjoy, candy grapes. And what they're doing
is and this is a trendy video all over TikTok.
Kids are taking Jolly Ranchers, putting them in the microwave

(03:50):
in a big bowl, a lot of Jolly ranchers, bags
of Jolly Ranchers, and they are microwaving them to melt
them down, and when you melt down candy, it turns.

Speaker 5 (04:01):
Basically into multiple lava. Nepal.

Speaker 4 (04:03):
We're talking over three hundred degrees, with some tests showing
as high as three hundred and fifty degrees. Now, of course,
kids who are using this are doing this, they're not
checking for the temperature as much as they are expecting
the result that they want on TikTok. But what happened
is there are increasing cases around the country at hospitals

(04:24):
of families, both kids and adults, going to the er
with third degree and second degree burns to their hands, arms,
and other parts of their bodies because when they go
to take out this microwaved molten lava candy jolly ranchers
melt it down, they're spilling it. They're spilling it. It's

(04:47):
very simple. They're spilling it, and they're spilling this three
hundred I don't mean to laugh, but three hundred and
fifty degree candy on their bodies. And there's one example,
specifically of a young man who was doing this with
his mom. The mom was mom was in on it.
Mom was completely in on it. And she does an
interview and she feels she says, she feels so guilty,

(05:10):
as she should, but she was facilitating this entire experiment.
And the kid went to take out the bowl of
Jolly Ranchers that had been heated up, and as he
was walking away, he spilled it on himself. The candy
burns his hands and it starts to crystallize and harden
as candy does.

Speaker 5 (05:29):
She starts ripping at the candy. Mom does.

Speaker 4 (05:32):
And as she's ripping at the candy, of course she's
taking off spits of flesh. Absolutely she rushes them to
the er and fortunately the doctors were able to save
his hand before the candy got down into his actual
veins and other parts that would paralyze him.

Speaker 5 (05:50):
Okay, I gotta understand what is the upshot? What was
the goal going in?

Speaker 4 (05:54):
So what they're planning on doing with this is they
take this candy and then they pour it on grapes,
so that you have this crystallized rock candy Jolly Ranchers
with grapes with fruit in the center.

Speaker 5 (06:06):
Oh my gosh. And it's a viral trend.

Speaker 3 (06:09):
Does someone actually try this and then put it online
or they're just trying to see if they can put
something online and people would be stupid enough.

Speaker 5 (06:16):
To do it.

Speaker 4 (06:16):
It's hard to figure out where this originated, but there
have been people who have successfully done it, and those
who don't successfully do it. You don't really hear about
them as much unless they go to the news because
I imagine DCFS came knocking and wanted to know why you're
doing this with your kid, with your nine year old.

Speaker 5 (06:34):
That's a future senator. Yeah, even run for president one day. Again.

Speaker 4 (06:38):
If your kids are asking for jolly ranchers and asking
me to be able to microwave them, you know, and
do these experiments, say no, absolutely, say no. The next
sequence of stories are also TikTok stories and one I'll
wait until we come back because I want to make
sure people are prepared for this. You're going to have

(06:59):
to have a strong stomach for this next story. It
involves skincare but not using conventional products. So what Yeah,
it's a way to engage in under consumption core. What
I'll tell you about it next when we come back.

Speaker 3 (07:15):
Is Later with Kelly Viral Lolativity Hobbs can if I
am six forty one live everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.

Speaker 5 (07:21):
You're listening to.

Speaker 1 (07:22):
Later with Mo Kelly on demand from kf I A
M six forty.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
No social Facebook, it's stick.

Speaker 1 (07:50):
Lad viral load, the viral load, viluative.

Speaker 5 (07:55):
May okay, wait wait wait wait wait why?

Speaker 6 (07:58):
Why?

Speaker 5 (07:58):
Why know that? Oh my god?

Speaker 3 (08:01):
I rushed into the studio because I thought, wait a minute,
we can't play that print song on the air because
there's cussing in it. If you know the original version
of Erotic City.

Speaker 5 (08:08):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (08:09):
And I was talking to Tiffany, I said, I thought
Eric Lesarda was, you know, in the lab creating something.

Speaker 5 (08:16):
So I didn't know that.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
Yes he was, and yes it was going to be tonight,
and it caught me off guard. We got to hear
that again.

Speaker 2 (08:24):
Run it back a Facebook.

Speaker 5 (08:53):
We could talk until the.

Speaker 2 (08:57):
I love it.

Speaker 5 (08:59):
Oh, I like that.

Speaker 2 (09:00):
I love it.

Speaker 5 (09:00):
It's later with moo Kelly. Let's continue with the viral
load with Tiffany hops.

Speaker 4 (09:04):
Okay, how do I come back from that? Well, this
next story, I hope you're ready for. People put a
lot of things on their faces.

Speaker 5 (09:13):
Got put lotion on my face from time to time.

Speaker 4 (09:15):
You do, and it looks really good. You have great skin,
so you must have good skincare.

Speaker 5 (09:19):
Well, actually, it's all the spinach that I've been eating. Okay,
pop bye, all right, here we go.

Speaker 4 (09:24):
Carl's junior years ago even coined their tagline or their phrase,
if it doesn't get all over the place, it doesn't
belong in your face.

Speaker 5 (09:34):
So why then, would it.

Speaker 4 (09:36):
Be so unusual for people to experiment with their skincare
Because if it comes out of something, it very well
may end up on your face. I remember, like the
snails stuff snails, the snail musin, which is the excretions
from snails. People put other things on their faces as well.
And this is a family show, so I won't necessarily

(09:58):
say all of the things that people use and skincare,
but they can be unusual. And there's the newest unusual
additive based off of what's going up viral on TikTok,
and it comes from an influencer who has taken to
using her own number two.

Speaker 5 (10:15):
You know what number one is? Number two.

Speaker 4 (10:17):
We're doing kind of coded bathroom speak, taking her number
two and using it as a face mask. And this
is her contribution to under consumption core because she's saying, hey,
it's free, it's readily available, it's plentiful, and you would
put it on your face.

Speaker 5 (10:38):
It can help with your dry skin.

Speaker 3 (10:41):
I just want to know what was the moment of inspiration,
What was the thought which first passed through her mind
and then through her colon to put that on her face.
I know that was pretty funny. Stephan wasn't paying attentions. Okay,
I'll get it back later, but let me go.

Speaker 5 (10:56):
It's well.

Speaker 3 (10:57):
I have a lot of hand fisted ideas that I'll
actually through with KK.

Speaker 5 (11:01):
Careful. I see what you did. That A stringent is
not that expensive. It's really not. But this is free moo.

Speaker 4 (11:12):
And she's telling you, this influencer Deborah Pixoto, that you
know this is your own production and it's good for you,
she says. So, after storing some of this in her refrigerator,
she took it out as it was still chilled, applied
it to her face, put a nose like a clothes

(11:33):
pin on her nose to somehow help with the smell.
And then she went on TikTok and relate all this
information to her many thousands of followers, saying it's works
for me.

Speaker 5 (11:46):
Okay, my skin has stopped flaking.

Speaker 3 (11:48):
I have to go all science on people for a moment,
don't they know? And obviously they don't. It's excrement, it's waste.
The body's trying to expel it because there's no value
to the body.

Speaker 4 (12:01):
There was a dermatologist who was consulted for this story,
and she says exactly that. She says, not only is
this trend one of the strangest she's ever come across
and one of the grossest, but she said, there's absolutely
no benefit to your skin in using feces as a
face mask, and it can also be dangerous because it
can make you susceptible to retinas discomfort, as well as

(12:22):
infection and food poisoning.

Speaker 3 (12:25):
Yeah, I mean, was it like ecali? Yeah, absolutely so
Already they'll move on to.

Speaker 4 (12:32):
The next story, which after that story might be a
little hard to get through. But this one deals with
a grandmother in the Midwest who's going viral on TikTok
and she's from and forgive me, I forget exactly what
state she's from. I think it might be Vermont or
somewhere kind of in the Northeast, but either way, she
is called the Mountain Mama. Gail Morris is seventy one.

(12:54):
She has a horde of grandchildren great grandchildren. Her family
has been very busy. She has a huge family, and
she often cooks these big, simplistic meals for her family,
biscuits and gravy meat dishes whatever, very common meals, very Americana.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Okay.

Speaker 4 (13:12):
Well, one of her grandsons who's on TikTok, said, hey, mama,
what you should do is you should record your cooking
and upload it to social media. And Gail said, don't
put me on Facebook. I imagine that's what her voice
was like, don't you put me on Facebook? And the
grandson said, okay, and put her on TikTok tells her, hey, mama,
I uploaded this video and people are reacting. You have

(13:34):
thousands of reactions and people are just loving this this content.
And she says, you know, this is how he got
around the don't put me on Facebook thing. He put
me on TikTok. I didn't know anything about viral stories.
I didn't know anything about this sort of social media fame.

Speaker 5 (13:48):
But Gail has.

Speaker 4 (13:49):
Since leaned into this new moniker, this new identity, and
she is now calling herself or she is being called
the Mountain Mama. She's a mass over two hundred thousand followers,
more than nine hundred and forty five thousand likes. This
really correlates to social media currency because she's doing very
well online with millions of views of her recipes, that

(14:12):
biscuit and gravy recipe and just her kind of doing
her best amateur chefing online.

Speaker 5 (14:19):
And people love it.

Speaker 4 (14:20):
She now refers to her fans as her grand fans
because she's a grandma and she is.

Speaker 5 (14:27):
The newest viral sensation.

Speaker 4 (14:30):
And she has a tagline too, very simplistic, y'all hungry,
and that's what she concludes and starts each video with,
if you are interested in Mama Gail, you can follow
her at Mama Gail Cooks.

Speaker 5 (14:46):
She's doing really well. We have time for one more, Yeah,
we go one more? Okay. Did you ever hear of
Polly Pocket?

Speaker 4 (14:53):
The nineties kind of compact miniature, shrunken down figurine kind
of place.

Speaker 5 (14:59):
That that a lot of young Barluck loved. I'm still
hung up on your PLoP zema story.

Speaker 1 (15:07):
I have you're.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
E Colie, Well really quick. Poly Pocket was a huge
sensation in the nineties. It's a little compact literally in
a compact size container plastic, these little miniature figurines. Was
all about this tiny little environment with these little characters
and you could play with them like barbies, but they
were anybody. They're like less than an inch tall. Okay,

(15:31):
whole little set.

Speaker 6 (15:32):
Well.

Speaker 4 (15:32):
Airbnb is introducing their newest kind of experience and it
is poly Pocket Life size poly Pocket. It debuts in
mid September. You'll be able to visit the poly Pocket Land.
It's an open compact that is forty two feet high
middle of September, September twelfth through the fourteenth. That weekend,

(15:55):
you can enjoy a stay at eighty nine dollars per
person in honor of the thirty fifth anniversary of Polypocket,
launched in nineteen eighty nine. That's where the eighty nine
dollars tag comes from or price tag comes from. And
again it's open so it does not close, meaning this
entire Airbnb dwelling does not actually have a roof. It's

(16:15):
an open compact, but you can walk around this life
size recreation of polypockets Land and you can sleep there,
but they don't recommend it. There's actually a tent just
ten feet away that they expect people to sleep.

Speaker 5 (16:29):
In as well. There's no running water, there's no bathroom.

Speaker 2 (16:32):
Would do this.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
It's all about the experience. It's all about getting the
pictures and being a part of the newest viral airbnb sensation.

Speaker 5 (16:41):
I played with Polypocket a lot. I loved it.

Speaker 4 (16:44):
I'm curious to see what a life size Polypocket would
look like. They did, Barbie, they've done Star Wars.

Speaker 6 (16:50):
Mo.

Speaker 4 (16:51):
If they did something for you know, a break into
electric Boogloo, you might want to stay there, you know,
or Star Wars or something like that. No, don't shame
the pollypocket.

Speaker 1 (17:01):
No whatever you're listening to later with Moe Kelly on
demand from KFI AM six forty.

Speaker 3 (17:13):
Culture Geist one of the classic I guess you'd call
it horror movie, but it's not horror by today's standards.

Speaker 5 (17:21):
It's horror by the early nineteen eighties standards.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
It became a cultural phenomenon. The whole line of there
Here came from Poultrygeist. The story of a ghost haunting
a suburban house abducting a very young child sent suburbia

(17:45):
into craziness because, you know, people were afraid to turn
on their TVs because back in the early nineteen eighties,
and I don't think Stephan is old us, remember this
TV used to go off the air. We had limited
program and it'd go off the air maybe twelve one
o'clock at night, and then it would come back on
as far as programming at about five AM, and it

(18:08):
would start with the national anthem.

Speaker 5 (18:11):
And that was how the movie basically began.

Speaker 3 (18:16):
And this poetry guy subducted Caroline and that was the
movie was Super Scared. I remember seeing it when I
was about twelve years old, and it was centered around
a family Craig T. Nelson and Joe Beth Williams Dominic
Dunn no longer with us, and two younger children, one

(18:36):
of which is also dead. Caroline, actress who played Caroline,
moved into this suburban house and I can't remember where
it was in California, but it was actually in SeeMe Valley,
and it was a new build of a new development,
which was true to real life. It was an actual
house that was just built then in nineteen seventy nine,

(18:57):
not long before they started filming Poultrygeist. And in the
story spoiler alert, this new development was built on the
graves of deceased people, and the deceased people were coming
back in a wreckon shop.

Speaker 6 (19:12):
An Indian burial mound. You don't you don't want your
real estate over that. No, no, you don't bad jujure there.

Speaker 3 (19:19):
Anyhow, that actual house is now for sale, and the
house is being listed for one point one seven five
million dollars twenty three hundred square feet, which is not
very big when you talk about a one point two
million dollar house, four bedrooms, two and a half baths,
features quote unquote, a spacious living room with large windows,

(19:41):
a formal dining room which is very nineteen eighties.

Speaker 5 (19:44):
A formal dining room as opposed to the open plans
of today. I don't know why I'm saying.

Speaker 3 (19:48):
That, leading to a kitchen and a fireplace in a
family room fireplace very early nineteen eighties that includes a
built in office space. The four bedrooms are upstairs with
vaulted ceilings and a a giant bathtub, and a master
bedroom and bathroom. I say that to say, if you've
seen the movie, all of this is in the movie.
I'm quite sure they've redecorated, but the way that they're

(20:11):
describing this layout is just like the movie, And if
you look at the pictures of it in the story,
hasn't changed much at all. And the original owners who
bought it when it was used for filming, still live
there and now they're selling it for the almost one
point two million dollars. In it's listing description, the home

(20:31):
is said to be close to schools, parks, shopping, dining,
and close to the one to eighteen freeway. And if
you've never seen Poulter Geys, well, I should say anyone
who's seen Poultergeist knows this.

Speaker 5 (20:44):
Scene there is.

Speaker 7 (20:48):
It is only a transition to up to frinksviear consciousness, Caroline.
It's not blackfirses grip. She is a living presence in
their spiritual earth by plane. They're attracted to the one
thing about her that's different from themselves.

Speaker 5 (21:11):
Listen to this musical around Force.

Speaker 2 (21:15):
It is very strong.

Speaker 7 (21:17):
It gives off its own illumination. It is a light
that implies life and memory of love and home and
earthly pleasures, something they desperately desired but can't have anymore

(21:39):
right now. She's the closest thing to that, and that
is a carible distraction from the real light that has.

Speaker 2 (21:50):
Finally come for them.

Speaker 7 (21:53):
Can't to stand me. These souls coo for whatever reason,
I not at rest. Are also not a way that
if they have passed on, they're not part of consciousness,
were knowing they linger.

Speaker 2 (22:13):
In a perpetual dream state.

Speaker 7 (22:17):
Are not there from which they cannot wait? Inside the
spectralight your salvation, a window to the next brain. They
must pass through this membrane, the friends awaiting to guide
them to their destinies. Caroline must help them cross over

(22:42):
and to go only year her mother's voice, now, hold
on to yourself.

Speaker 2 (22:57):
The music.

Speaker 7 (22:59):
There's one more thing. A terrible presence is in there
with her, so much rage, so much betrayal.

Speaker 2 (23:11):
I've never since anything like it.

Speaker 7 (23:15):
I don't know where hovers over this house, but it
was strong enough to punch a hole into this world
and take your dog away from you. He keeps Caroline
very close to it and away.

Speaker 2 (23:31):
From the spectrum light.

Speaker 7 (23:34):
Is lies.

Speaker 5 (23:36):
It says things, only a child.

Speaker 2 (23:40):
Money.

Speaker 7 (23:40):
He's been using her to restrain the others. It simply
is another child to us, it is the beast.

Speaker 5 (23:59):
Okay, Mark Ronner, this is a movie. Even to this day,
I will not watch at night. Really, I refuse.

Speaker 6 (24:05):
We had it on a little bit ago and I
thought it was really impressive, especially because Toby Hooper is
the director, and you know, his output was kind of
all over the map.

Speaker 5 (24:14):
Yeah, he of course did Texas Chainsaw massacre. That's why
I said it's horror adjacent.

Speaker 6 (24:20):
I think it's horror. I mean, you look at that
pool scene. You think that's not horror? And by the way,
is the pool a strong selling point in the listing?
Not to anyone who knows I would take a dip
in that pool. Are you saying you wouldn't live in
that house or stay in that house, even knowing it
was just a movie and it's not really over an
Indian burial mound.

Speaker 3 (24:38):
Look, four members of the cast across the three movies
have died due to strange circumstances, some of them violent circumstances.

Speaker 6 (24:48):
Oh toy that they said the same stuff about The
Omen and the Exorcist. There's that buzz around every supernatural movie.

Speaker 3 (24:54):
Okay, all right, but still you asked the question, would
I stay in the house, Hail's No, I would because
houses are so expensive here.

Speaker 6 (25:01):
If they gave me a deal on I'd live in
a murder house. And if they hadn't torn down the
Tate House and there was a good deal on that,
oh damn, I'd live there because you can't afford anything here.

Speaker 3 (25:12):
Now, you would live in the Manson Killing's house. Yeah,
if clar and Tate may float down the stairs. If
I could afford the down payment, I'd live in a
murder house.

Speaker 5 (25:23):
You and you alone. Sorry, not me.

Speaker 3 (25:26):
Not me because I have to go to sleep every night.
You believe in ghosts. I believe in the limited concept
of the potential of our minds to understand the totality
of consciousness. If that's the one way I can describe it.
George Snuri will probably agree with me. Yeah, right now,
you got to find out what he thinks about this. Yeah, No,
I would not. I would not sleep in the house.

(25:48):
When I had my last apartment in Studio City, which
is at the corner of Colewater Canyon and a Ventura Boulevard,
I would swear up and down that there was a
presence in that apartment. I only felt it in that apartment,
and I actually thought it was my dead grandmother, and
I didn't feel it anytime I was not in the apartment.

Speaker 5 (26:08):
Let me tell me tell you. If the monthly payments
were doable, I'd live in that Amityville house.

Speaker 3 (26:13):
Okay, Well, the only reason I did stay in it
because it was rent control and I was this was
like two thousand and three, and I was only paying
seven hundred and fifty dollars a month. I see now
you're talking. Yeah, but I had to get out. I
had to get out. When we come back, we'll check
in with George norriy Coast to Coast AM. Let's see
what he thinks about whether he would stay in the
poulter Geist House If I Aim six forty Live Everywhere

(26:34):
in the iHeartRadio app CA If I Aim six forty
is later with Mo Kelly Live Everywhere on the iHeartRadio app.
Coming up in just a few minutes, will be Coast
to Coast AM with George norri and he joins me
right now, George, I don't know if you heard last segment.
Would you stay in the Poultergeist House, which is now

(26:57):
available for purchase?

Speaker 5 (27:03):
I'm out of there. What about the Amityville House? None
of those things?

Speaker 2 (27:09):
Thank you? They freaked me out.

Speaker 1 (27:11):
Thank you.

Speaker 3 (27:13):
Now, where do you sit? I kind of know, but
I just want to hear in your words, where do
you sit on the idea of ghosts.

Speaker 5 (27:20):
I believe in ghosts, There's no question about it.

Speaker 4 (27:22):
As a matter of fact, we're going to be talking
about that for the first couple hours great segue, mo hey,
and then later on man in Jean's stress on.

Speaker 3 (27:32):
I don't know if I could manage stress if I
knew that there was some sort of spirit in my
house who was or what was actively engaging me on
some level.

Speaker 5 (27:41):
I don't know if I could deal with it. I'd
have to move real stuff.

Speaker 6 (27:45):
But it's scary.

Speaker 3 (27:47):
Well, I'll be tuning in because I want to hear
what you have to say about that, even though don't
listen to those disbelievers like Mark Ronner.

Speaker 7 (27:54):
You got it.

Speaker 3 (27:55):
Talk soon and before we get out here, why don't
we just in the conversation right there, Tify Hobson and
I were talking about our respective places in which we
felt we were dealing with an entity.

Speaker 5 (28:08):
Tiffy, are you willing to tell that story again? Sure?
So quickly.

Speaker 4 (28:11):
I lived in an apartment for about ten years, and
when I first moved in, it was a small duplex.
The person who lived below me I lived on the
second floor. Person who lived below me lived in my
unit on the second floor for about thirty years. She
moved downstairs because of just aging. I moved into the
top floor unit, and while I was there in that
first year, I started to smell cigarette smoke randomly. I

(28:34):
would hear whistling, and I lived by myself. I'd hear whistling,
and I would sometimes see kind of something out the
corner of my eye that was this tall, black figure
and I couldn't make out what it was because I'm
there by myself. So after many occurrences of this happening
and feeling uncomfortable, but not feeling threatened, but definitely taking notice,

(28:57):
I asked my neighbor. I said, hey, when you lived
up here, did you feel anything? Did you ever have
any visions or see anything? And she said, describe what
you mean. And I told her, I smell cigarettes smoke,
I hear whistling, and it's a tall figure. I'm seeing
out the corner of my eye. I don't know if
I'm going crazy. And she says, very matter of factly
to me, Oh, yeah, that's my dad. And I'm like, wait,

(29:21):
what his dad did. Dad had passed away about fifteen
years prior to me moving in. And I said, I'm
sorry what she said. Yeah, when I lived up there,
he put in these skunces. He did a lot of woodwork.
He was an ever present figure in that apartment. It
was her first apartment.

Speaker 5 (29:38):
For you know, his daughter.

Speaker 4 (29:39):
And he was always around and she said he was tall,
he smoked, and he always whistled.

Speaker 5 (29:47):
She said, don't worry, just tell him I'm downstairs. And
I was like, okay.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
So the next time I felt anything, I kind of
screamed or blurted out, your daughter's downstairs. I live here now.
And nothing from that point, nothing at all from that point.
And I lived there for another nine years.

Speaker 5 (30:09):
Here's more than me. Well, he was gone at that point.

Speaker 7 (30:12):
You know.

Speaker 5 (30:12):
It was a nice it was a good find.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
It was very cheap.

Speaker 5 (30:14):
It was nine to twenty five.

Speaker 3 (30:15):
Yeah, I've only had that one instance when I was
in Studio City where I felt that there was a
presence and I felt it repeatedly, consistently. It was unmistakable,
and as soon as I moved out, never felt it again.

Speaker 5 (30:29):
So it wasn't like I just felt it just to
be Felia. No, there was something You've never.

Speaker 3 (30:33):
Been in a room and your eyes could be closed,
but you can feel someone coming in the room, that
presence of entrance. That's what I would feel. And I
wasn't scared, but I definitely did not feel alone. Can
I call it a ghost.

Speaker 5 (30:48):
I don't know. I don't know what it was.

Speaker 3 (30:50):
I've just known our limited understanding of consciousness or existence,
that we don't have all the words and all the
under standing of everything that's out there.

Speaker 5 (31:02):
So that's all I'm saying. I'm a believer. I definitely
believe in that thin veil and something on the other side. Yeah.

Speaker 3 (31:09):
And if I you know when I should die, you
know I will come back and haunt Mark, just because
if I should go before him, you wouldn't dare.

Speaker 5 (31:16):
Oh yes I would.

Speaker 6 (31:18):
And listen if we're if we're in the same house
together and you are haunting me, just get your stuff
out of the dryer, and I don't care. I'll share,
just as long as you're not in my way constantly.

Speaker 2 (31:28):
Enough is enough.

Speaker 3 (31:30):
I have had it with these monifer snakes on this
