Speaker 10 (07:04):
Art's luck, if we was playing the new or.

Speaker 11 (07:08):
Given that my friends first name was near Calladen, it
was very goody.

Speaker 10 (07:12):
It was very much freely up studying or like let's
do this.

Speaker 12 (07:15):
You're not sure?

Speaker 10 (07:16):
So she lived down the street from fine House. Yeah,
and we lived in the inner city like give like
my mare started.

Speaker 6 (07:23):
And I don't know if she's like family there.

Speaker 13 (07:26):
Like her friends are, and they're all like thirty fourteen fifty,
so they're obviously just.

Speaker 11 (07:30):
New things that elevately experience and turning off the lights
and stuff like that.

Speaker 10 (07:35):
Probably get annoyed. Was playing with the sweet Sport.

Speaker 11 (07:38):
I honestly don't remember what was uh seven three board,
but what I do remember is the walk back home
after that.

Speaker 10 (07:48):
So my dad was a very parry, annoyed man. You
did not want the house to be left the boe
s somebody always tend to people.

Speaker 2 (07:54):
My brother called me and he.

Speaker 10 (07:55):
Said, hey, yeah, I'm I'm heading out now.

Speaker 6 (07:57):
You have to come home now.

Speaker 5 (07:59):
And so it was less than a five minute walk
away from my house.

Speaker 11 (08:03):
So I asked my friends because we're a thirteen year
old girls in the inner city, so obviously I didn't
want to walk by myself at like nine o'clock at night.

Speaker 10 (08:11):
And one person had four and on them. One person
had like a water night.

Speaker 6 (08:14):
I don't even know what hay and.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
It was a production.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
I don't know.

Speaker 10 (08:18):
I don't know what what else you're allowed.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
To do at thirteen.

Speaker 10 (08:20):
So we were at the corner of Sergeant in Maryland,
so me armr it is an now a fresh show
and I had to run across the street to catch
a light.

Speaker 11 (08:31):
And what I specifically remember doing is you could see
the corner from my mom's house that she's not far
from there, and I like wave back to my friends.

Speaker 10 (08:39):
There was a story of them and they didn't wave
back to me, and I thought that was kind of rude.

Speaker 14 (08:42):
I'm like, ugh, jerks, that's fine, I'll talk to them
on Monday.

Speaker 13 (08:47):
But I remember going behind the house and then immediately
feeling like somebody like I didn't hear it, but for
some odd reason, I thought somebody was gonna come through
the eight that I had just closed.

Speaker 10 (09:00):
And I I turned around and there was something there.

Speaker 11 (09:02):
I thought that was strange, and so I go through
the door that is connected to the kitchen. So I
go through there and I walk through the whole kitchen
and my lights just completely come off.

Speaker 10 (09:14):
And again, I'm thirteen, I'm alone in this house. I
don't wanna be there by myself. So I started like
flicking it on and off, and I'm in the dark.
So I just run around and turn on all the
lights in the house.

Speaker 14 (09:26):
And so the first thing I knew was I knew
it wasn't diffuse that went out because the kitchen keys
the kitchen is connected.

Speaker 10 (09:33):
To the bathroom, and the bathroom leg turned off.

Speaker 11 (09:37):
And so I called one of my friends like, hey, like,
this thing's going on in the kitchen.

Speaker 10 (09:42):
We were playing with the Ouiji board. I'm scared. Stay
on the line with me, and I was like, just
try I just try and turn it on. So I
flicking in on and off, and I look at this
soup and switch.

Speaker 11 (09:52):
I'm like, okay, I'm gonna flick with one more time
and if you don't turn on, I'm gonna just head
into the living room and I'm I'm not gonna deal
with this.

Speaker 10 (10:00):
Doesn't turn on, I'm like, say it's through this.

Speaker 14 (10:02):
As soon as I started walking away, it flickers back.

Speaker 10 (10:06):
On and I'm like, oh my god.

Speaker 8 (10:09):
I'm not alone.

Speaker 2 (10:10):
I don't like this.

Speaker 10 (10:11):
So my dad came home me maybe an.

Speaker 8 (10:14):
Hour after that.

Speaker 10 (10:15):
I was on the phone with my friend the entire time,
and I talked to my friends about this whole.

Speaker 13 (10:20):
Experience, like the Monday afterwards, and so there were details
that they had told me.

Speaker 10 (10:26):
That I kind of blocked out because I heard one.

Speaker 6 (10:28):
Detail and I'm like, okay, that had to be it.

Speaker 10 (10:31):
And so what did they tell me?

Speaker 11 (10:33):
They said that they saw somebody run across the street
after me, and they were wearing a gray jacket.

Speaker 10 (10:38):
So I immediately just thought, oh, well, maybe they saw my.

Speaker 11 (10:42):
Dad running across the street, cause he that's exactly what
he was wary.

Speaker 8 (10:47):
And it came.

Speaker 10 (10:48):
Home like forty an hour later, but it didn't make sense.

Speaker 14 (10:51):
And they had told me this before I even told
them what had happened, and I put everything together like
years after. So what they had said was when they
were standing on the corner, there was a guy that
was probably seventeen, younger guy and did not have the
same compassion as my dad, and he had a great
jacket on it, and he ran across the street from

(11:12):
the side towards.

Speaker 11 (11:14):
Them, and then I was going this way, and then
as soon as this light turned red, he was like,
oh damn it.

Speaker 10 (11:21):
And so they stood there the entire time until it
went green.

Speaker 13 (11:24):
I was in my yard and I waved at them,
and that's when they said that the.

Speaker 11 (11:28):
Guy ran across the street and he ran into my yard.
And I didn't see anybody, but I had that weird
feeling that somebody had followed me into my yard, and
so that's why they didn't way back at me, cause
they were watching this gam.

Speaker 2 (11:42):
Going into the yard.

Speaker 6 (11:43):
So that's alright.

Speaker 3 (11:55):
How about the niece, maybe the news this isn't their city.

Speaker 10 (12:03):
It's awesome.

Speaker 2 (12:03):
Come on up.

Speaker 6 (12:08):
If I call your name and.

Speaker 8 (12:09):
You haven't had enough like of courage yet, just.

Speaker 2 (12:12):
Let me know and I'll call the next person.

Speaker 12 (12:14):
Okay, okay, okay, thank you, Hi everybody.

Speaker 2 (12:18):
So I have two stories. I'll only share one.

Speaker 12 (12:21):
I have a scary walker falling out of the raptors
of my garage story. And I have a creepy phone
off the hook in an empty warehouse story.

Speaker 2 (12:30):
So I'll any preference.

Speaker 15 (12:34):
The walker, Okay, the walker is a good one. The
walker is a good one.

Speaker 2 (12:38):
So my mom, I'm here with my sister.

Speaker 12 (12:40):
So our mom passed away years ago in late December,
so I was probably about after she passed away. I
had to go to her place where she lived and
get all of her stuff. So I had it all
stored in my garage and all different nooks and crannies.
So I was barbecuing one night. It was winter, so
it's barbecuing in my garage. We had our brought barbecue

(13:03):
in a garage at the time, and I was standing
there barbecuing. And probably about three months later, I look
up in the rafters of my attic and I see.

Speaker 2 (13:12):
My mom's walker up there. So I work a lot
in the community.

Speaker 12 (13:16):
So I said to myself out loud because I talked
to myself, I said, oh, I have to remember donate
that walker somewhere like I got to do something with
that walker, and I just continued barbecuing and I never
thought of it again, and he'd been up there for.

Speaker 2 (13:30):
Months and months and months.

Speaker 12 (13:31):
I finished cooking dinner, went into my house.

Speaker 5 (13:35):
The next morning, I get my son.

Speaker 10 (13:37):
Ready to go to school.

Speaker 5 (13:38):
We're all packed up. He's like maybe seven.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
We get all packed up.

Speaker 12 (13:43):
We go into my garage and I go to open
the door and it's like tunk hitting something and.

Speaker 5 (13:49):
I was like, well, what's that's what's blocking the door?

Speaker 2 (13:52):
So I push it open.

Speaker 5 (13:53):
I shove it open with my son, and my mom's.

Speaker 12 (13:56):
Walker is on the ground in blocking the door of
the garage for me to get in. And I was thinking,
like my son was right there and he's like, well,
how did that fall?

Speaker 5 (14:07):
And I said, it's my car was parked under it.

Speaker 12 (14:10):
It would have fallen on my car and then smashed
onto the ground and broken. It was also winter, so
it would have completely broken, so it was very weird.

Speaker 2 (14:19):
I think my mom placed it.

Speaker 15 (14:20):
Down on the ground for me to donate for her.

Speaker 12 (14:23):
So that was my weird walker story.

Speaker 15 (14:27):
Okay, the other one.

Speaker 12 (14:28):
Quickly, I volunteer at a big creepy warehouse in the
Exchange District. Every Saturday, I run a furniture bank there
for people that are newly housed. And it's an abandoned warehouse.
It used to be the Eton's catalog printing place and
now it's and then turned into a.

Speaker 5 (14:47):
Nutty club manufacturing facility. But now it's completely empty.

Speaker 2 (14:50):
It's just us in the whole building.

Speaker 12 (14:52):
So I was in there once with my poor son again,
the same kid older now he's like fifteen at this point,
and we're in the warehouse and he hates. It's super
haunted this warehouse. He hates being in that warehouse. So
we're in there to help set up chairs or something
for an event that we're having, and we're in the
first floor. It's three stories. This warehouse is completely banned

(15:14):
in three stories. We're in the main floor where the
furniture bank is, and I hear like a beat sound
like coming from up on the other floors. No one
is ever here. We're the only people in this building.
So I said to him, like, do you hear that?
And he's like, no, no, no, I don't hear anything.

Speaker 2 (15:33):
I don't hear anything.

Speaker 6 (15:35):
Let's just go.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
And I'm like, no, I I hear something. Don't you
hear that? And so I no, no, no, no no.

Speaker 12 (15:41):
So then I walked to the stairwell, which is completely creepy.
I get to the stairwell and I can hear it
coming from upstairs. So I'm like, it's upstairs, let's go
see what's going on. So he wants nothing to do
with it, but he comes because he's scared to let
me go by myself. So we go up the stairs
and we get to there's a second floor that's completely empty.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
Nothing there. Third floor we get up to. I call it.

Speaker 12 (16:06):
It's a room that's all painted pink at least to
be like their office facility, and I call it the
pink ballroom. So we get into the pink ballroom and
there's a phone completely off the hook in a far
corner of the room.

Speaker 5 (16:19):
But it's a super old phone, and it's like not
knocked off by a squirrel or just kind of off kilter.

Speaker 12 (16:26):
It's the receiver's completely off the hook and that's what's beeping.
So I said, well, this is it. So I hang
it up and I'm go, okay, good, good, good, let's go.
So then I pick it up again to hear the
dial tone, Like, I don't know why, you just naturally
want to hear the dial tone. So I pick it
up again to hear the dial tone, and there's no
dial tone, and I hit nine and I'm hitting the
hang up and I'm trying everything and.

Speaker 5 (16:48):
It's not at all connected.

Speaker 12 (16:50):
So I don't know why it was beeping, but that's
what was beeping. So that's my cricket warehouse story.

Speaker 2 (17:06):
How about cats? I would love to see thank you?

Speaker 16 (17:23):
Oh wow, there are a lot of people in here.
Can you hear me in the bag? No response to crowd? Okay,
I'll just move closer. Okay. I have two stories because
they happened relatively close, and this is the first time
it happened. Was like the first time that I can

(17:45):
recall of this type of situation happening.

Speaker 17 (17:50):
Okay.

Speaker 16 (17:51):
So I was actually in Edmonton for both of these occurrences.
I was moving out of my apartment, putting my stuff
in storage. It's eleven o'clock at night. I'm moving by
myself because I am a shee hulk and there's nothing
I can't do. So I'm in a kind of sketchy
neighborhood like my I was living in an apartment building

(18:11):
across from a gas station. There was a tent city
on the other side. So I'm as I'm bringing out boxes,
like situational awareness is like full high, constantly scanning everything
like that. I have this big, heavy box in my
hands and I'm walking to my car and as I'm
turning my head, I make eye contact with this being.

Speaker 15 (18:36):
Like it was.

Speaker 16 (18:38):
Standing tall, like six feet, dark hair, dark clothes, and
the look it was almost kind of maniacal, like it
was like the face had no expression, it was just
all in the eyes.

Speaker 10 (18:51):
And even though I.

Speaker 16 (18:52):
Was in the process of turning my head, as we
made eye contact, for like a split second, it felt
like time stopped and like water completely doubtsed my entire
body and like my organs to the point where I
was like once I turned my head and then looked
back and like registered that I saw something and when
to look back and it wasn't there. I was like, Okay,

(19:15):
did I actually see something? But like the feeling that
was left in my body, it was like yeah, I
absolutely saw something, and I just like stood there for
a couple of seconds. I'm like, you lost time. I
have no idea.

Speaker 2 (19:26):
It was just so.

Speaker 16 (19:27):
Even right now thinking about it, like I'm getting chills,
my heart rates increasing, and I'm just like who just
like the look I like, I could never describe how
I felt in the look alone, and just like the
whole appearance, like I got like full medieval witch vibes.
Like it was very I couldn't even confirm if it
was like a.

Speaker 18 (19:47):
Woman or a man.

Speaker 16 (19:47):
It was just dark, very weird and dark. And it's
like eleven o'clock at night. So that's the first time
I ever actually remember seeing anything so vividly. A couple
months later, I'm in my new place. I'm standing in
my kitchen and I turned. So how my kitchen was

(20:08):
set up as I have an island and then a
support beam because they had just taken out a bunch
of they've like redone the kitchen and whatnot, so there
used to be cupboards that blocked it. So I was
standing in my kitchen. I have two dogs. I hear
them like walking around and everything. I turn and I
see this dude walking down right on the other side

(20:30):
of the island towards my front door, looking at me.
I'm like, like time also seems to like slow down
to like a buzz and he's just walking.

Speaker 15 (20:41):
He's like a white dude kind of like.

Speaker 16 (20:44):
Reddish brown hair, just staring at me as he's walking
down towards me in my kitchen, and as he passes
this beam, he like disappears, and then my dog rounds
the corner. And I was like, I almost didn't know
what to do with that, because since then I've seen

(21:04):
that same guy in like a meditative trance I went into,
like I can't I can't tell you what we talked about.
I just know that he was there and we had
a conversation. But since then, like randomly, things keep popping up,
like seeing elbows walking by like doorframes, which sounds crazy,
but now I live in that house against no, yeah no,

(21:28):
Like my dogs like walked around the corner and we
were like making an eye contact, and I was like,
but I'm also like very close with my dogs, So like,
I don't think I don't even know where to go
with that. It's just it's like I still can't put
into words the field.

Speaker 3 (21:45):
I trust your judgment and from Mom's school.

Speaker 16 (21:48):
Yeah yeah, yeah, I don't want to say anything else
about sounding like absolutely nuts, but but yeah those are
my remember that's totally fair. Yeah, yeah, no, I think
that's yeah, those are my stories.

Speaker 10 (22:13):
Pretty cool?

Speaker 2 (22:15):
All right, I.

Speaker 10 (22:29):
Can't we're losing time.

Speaker 2 (22:33):
I'll follow.

Speaker 19 (22:37):
Again.

Speaker 20 (22:38):
How are you hello? It's ghost time.

Speaker 2 (22:43):
Yeah, And I'm a hullo ladies.

Speaker 19 (22:45):
And I'm a Halloween baby. I'm a girlfriend's dang close
to that too, So we're scorpios. But so anyways, so
I used to live here in this city. I don't anymore,
but I still love coming to the city. So here's
the thing.

Speaker 20 (23:02):
So down in the Woolsey.

Speaker 19 (23:04):
Area, yes, and so I had this this buddy of mind, Pat,
and I'd heard that his house had been haunted and whatnot,
and I'd heard stories. So he was a musician, and
so he'd have his drum kit upstairs in his room
and he had a dog, and so I'd heard that

(23:26):
the drum kit somehow would mysteriously roll down the stairs.
And okay, and so then another time he had a
bunch of friends over and you enter, someone tell me,
you just randomly take your shoes off, You just throw
them right, and so they're all scattered. And so they'd
been either upstairs or downstairs, and the shoes somehow.

Speaker 15 (23:48):
On their own were paired. Oh, so that was that. Yeah,
so that was that was kind of odd.

Speaker 19 (23:57):
But so but for myself, here's my story because I'd
only heard these stories from other people that were there.
So I'm like, well, all right, that's interesting. So and
I'm not a skeptic or anything like that. So I'm
at his place and he had a dog named Dixie
and he had piranhas, and I'm like, well, all right,

(24:19):
that's cool. I walked with him to his place. We
used to hang out and a bunch of us did in.

Speaker 20 (24:22):
Meet what was the area and I was in my
early adulthood.

Speaker 19 (24:27):
And so all right, So that being said, so he's like, Amy,
I gotta go and I gotta go feed my piranhas
and whatever.

Speaker 20 (24:35):
And he's like, you know about.

Speaker 19 (24:36):
The stories in my house and I'm like, yeah, Pat,
I do. And he's like all right, so I'm gonna
go downstairs. He's like, just you hang out.

Speaker 20 (24:45):
With a dog and wait and whatever. And I'm like, well, okay.
So he goes downstairs.

Speaker 19 (24:53):
I hear footsteps upstairs and him and I are the
only ones in his home and I'm like, well all right.
At first, my brain just sid to dismiss it like
it was nothing. So I thought, well, all right, that's cool.
A moment of silence or two goes by, and then
I again I hear the same footsteps and a door slam,

(25:13):
and I'm like, oh, well, all.

Speaker 20 (25:15):
Right, you're making yourself more noticeable, like I know you're here,
and so now you're gonna know that I'm here.

Speaker 19 (25:22):
So we're like, well okay, and I'm like, hey, Pat,
how's it going.

Speaker 20 (25:26):
He's like, yeah, just give me a few more minutes.

Speaker 19 (25:28):
Anything going on.

Speaker 15 (25:29):
I'm like no, no, no.

Speaker 20 (25:31):
Meanwhile, the dog high tails it under the couch.

Speaker 19 (25:34):
And I'm like, oh, well, all right, because they say,
like certain animals and little kids are very sensitive.

Speaker 20 (25:43):
To that sort of stuff.

Speaker 10 (25:44):
So I'm like, okay, well all right.

Speaker 19 (25:48):
My heart's kind of, you know, not quite skipping a beat,
but it's getting up it right, So I'm like, well,
sort of a biscuit.

Speaker 20 (25:56):
Okay.

Speaker 19 (25:57):
So another moment or two of silence, same thing again,
and I'm like, hey, Pat, because I'm getting a little
nervous now, so I'm like, are you you coming up
soon or what?

Speaker 20 (26:10):
He's like, any activity going on?

Speaker 15 (26:12):
I'm like, yeah, maybe just.

Speaker 19 (26:13):
A little bit, so and then eventually he came up,
and then the dog did it kind of stopped, I
guess you could say, and the dog kind of managed
to come from underneath the couch and showed itself here
I am, I'm okay, and we left.

Speaker 20 (26:31):
So yeah, that was that was kind of fine.

Speaker 19 (26:34):
So then I ended up finding out from him that
so he had a psychic come by and sure enough,
there is a little bit of history from his home
and there had been like a like a it was
a woman of swords, and I don't know, I think
he said at some point there may have been an

(26:54):
apparition scene.

Speaker 20 (26:56):
Okay, So yeah, so there's my story.

Speaker 10 (27:00):
So yeah, thank.

Speaker 20 (27:02):
You, thank you.

Speaker 19 (27:04):
Oh boy, quite some years I think until well, yeah,
but like I said, so, I'd heard it from like
from friends about you know, so I'm like, okay, it's
one thing when one person says something, but it's more
than when more than one does. And so to me
that kind of went because a lot of people were

(27:25):
like stuck on the same story, and I'm like, well, okay,
then it's got to be believable, right, you know.

Speaker 20 (27:30):
So yeah, that kind of made it again a firm.

Speaker 10 (27:34):
Believer out of me.

Speaker 20 (27:35):
Still in the house, I'm sorry, what was that is?

Speaker 2 (27:39):
He still in the house.

Speaker 19 (27:40):
Oh to this day, I have no idea. We've kind
of lost contact. So yeah, but this would.

Speaker 20 (27:47):
Have been almost say thirty years thirty years ago or so.

Speaker 19 (27:50):
So anyways, yeah, for sure, absolutely, you're welcome. Yeah, for sure,
thank you.

Speaker 10 (28:01):
We have next.

Speaker 4 (28:03):
Next, we have Charis Cherie Is Charis ready, ar Is
always ready.

Speaker 1 (28:12):
And it's going on with this mic.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Oh ah, there's Cheris. Come on up and join I'm
on down.

Speaker 9 (28:29):
We've had Charis as a guest on her podcast a
few years back, so she's got some really creepy cool stories. Yeah.

Speaker 2 (28:39):
Obviously a magnet I am.

Speaker 5 (28:41):
Yeah, yeah, I have like.

Speaker 21 (28:44):
I'm very sensitive to the spirit world and it's like
a beacon and it's it's not exactly great.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Sometimes, but it is what it is.

Speaker 21 (28:56):
I'm trying to think I have a like three at
the top of my head. Tonight I can talk about
the castlema or sure. Yeah, Okay. So I used to
live at a building called Castaloma on Sherbrook and Portage,
and back in the nineteen twenties there was a big,
huge apartment fire. There was about five five people who

(29:22):
passed away in the fire, and I was fortunate enough
to be living in one of the apartments at the
top where people couldn't necessarily get out, so they were
trapped in there, and they had perished in that fire.
And when I lived there, I kind of like had
an idea that there was a history, but I.

Speaker 5 (29:44):
Didn't really think, like I guess I was a little naive.

Speaker 2 (29:47):
I was like, nothing's going to happen, and.

Speaker 8 (29:49):
I'll be fine.

Speaker 21 (29:51):
And I lived there with my little son, and it
really wasn't fine. He would talk to people that weren't there.
He would be like, hey, Mom, there's a man in
the hall. There's a man in the hall, and there
was no one there besides me and him. And then
a few times I would catch him.

Speaker 2 (30:13):
Talking to someone in his room.

Speaker 21 (30:15):
He was terrified of his room, but he would like
he wouldn't sleep in that room, but he would go
in there like occasionally and go and play.

Speaker 5 (30:22):
But sometimes I would catch him talking.

Speaker 21 (30:25):
To someone and no one was there, and I would
ask him, like, well, who are you talking to?

Speaker 5 (30:30):
And he's like, there's a big, tall guy with a
big belly, mom.

Speaker 21 (30:34):
And then like I was like, well, okay, Like I
didn't really think much of it, like kids have invisible friends,
right until I would see shadows walking from room to room.
It's a really old, beautiful apartment and it's just gorgeous
in there, and I would see women walking from room
to room.

Speaker 2 (30:54):
I'd see a guy with a big stomach who was
I think he was a lawyer.

Speaker 21 (30:58):
That perished in the fire, because I checked out who
all perished and it was a guy rather tall, and
he was a lawyer that died in the top floor
that I was in.

Speaker 5 (31:10):
And it was like things would go missing.

Speaker 21 (31:13):
There was like I'd walk into black masses, even the halls,
even the halls going from the laund room.

Speaker 5 (31:21):
I wasn't There was always something in that building.

Speaker 21 (31:24):
And because it's so old, like that's not just one
incident that people had died in, right, because it's the old.
So I don't have the full story about who all
passed in that apartment obviously, right, that's a huge apartment.

Speaker 2 (31:38):
Like you never really know.

Speaker 21 (31:40):
And then she actually looked it up and she was like, yeah,
there's people who went to the hospital and died in
the hospital, right, and they lived there, but they just
never came back, right.

Speaker 22 (31:49):
Well, the one thing all the paper's back in those days,
there was not scandalous, but it was like you know, suppers.
She would a report on everything. It would say Tom,
you inside, and they would give the address and yeah.

Speaker 9 (32:03):
Great the newspapers back in the day, which is something different.
So it was really easy when we did the property
because her.

Speaker 22 (32:09):
Building was so infamous with before forests ye forest parts
because of a fire and that was so tragic.

Speaker 2 (32:17):
I think it was because of her building.

Speaker 22 (32:19):
They also instituted like the nine one one system or so, yeah,
because the city really didn't have that before.

Speaker 10 (32:25):
But it was easier to trace all the people that
died in that building, I think because of the history
of the building.

Speaker 21 (32:30):
Yeah, yep, And so like there's it's really hard to
really fully pinpoint who, you know, Like a lot of
people went in and out those doors, right.

Speaker 5 (32:40):
So.

Speaker 21 (32:42):
I lived in two apartments in that apartment, and one
was on the second floor.

Speaker 10 (32:48):
I walked by, like I.

Speaker 5 (32:49):
Literally walked by a full black.

Speaker 21 (32:52):
Heavy dark mass, like it was terrified that shot out
of me.

Speaker 2 (32:56):
I literally I walked right through it.

Speaker 21 (32:58):
And I was scared because I had to go to
my bedroom and I was like what do I do?

Speaker 2 (33:01):
Right, Like, so I just like took off running.

Speaker 21 (33:04):
He passed like through the black mass and I had
like cold chill.

Speaker 2 (33:08):
My whole body was just cold. And that was probably
the most.

Speaker 21 (33:12):
Terrifying experience I ever had, was the big black masks,
besides seeing the people.

Speaker 5 (33:19):
And then I always had this one dream.

Speaker 21 (33:22):
I don't know if there was any reality to it,
but there was this lady who was trying to get
into my room and she couldn't for whatever reason there was.

Speaker 2 (33:31):
She would just stand at my door and she.

Speaker 5 (33:33):
Would like look at me with a really long white dress.

Speaker 2 (33:37):
I'm not sure.

Speaker 21 (33:38):
I know there was a woman that did die there,
but I wasn't sure if would apartment, but.

Speaker 2 (33:44):
That was really freaking. I think my kid had the
same dream at the same time. Yeah, it was booky.
It's scary. It was so scary.

Speaker 5 (33:52):
And then when I went to go get.

Speaker 21 (33:54):
The laundry one time, there was the elevator. It always
kept like glitching, like. I didn't really put much stake
into it because it's super old, right until one night
I was going up to my apartment getting my laundry
and I seen a disembodied arm right.

Speaker 2 (34:13):
By the door and the door like it. It sounds
kind of cliche.

Speaker 21 (34:17):
But in the horror movies, you know, you see like
something creepy and then you're waiting for the door to close.

Speaker 2 (34:22):
That's exactly what happened. Oh and I just seen the
one arm. I just seen an arm.

Speaker 5 (34:26):
I dad didn't see anything else, and the door was
taking it to sweet time closing, and I was terrified.

Speaker 21 (34:32):
And I have no I don't know where it came from,
but like no one was there, because.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
I was like, what the fuck?

Speaker 19 (34:39):
Right? Right?

Speaker 5 (34:40):
But no one was there, Like I even kind of
got brave enough to peek out.

Speaker 2 (34:44):
No one was there. So there was a lot of
activity in that place.

Speaker 21 (34:49):
Things would go missing, you'd feel yourself watched, you'd hear
footsteps in your hall, you'd see the shadows.

Speaker 2 (34:58):
It is really freaky. That's one story. I have a
couple more. I don't know if you guys want to
hear it, but can I ask a question for you?

Speaker 10 (35:08):
Feel like, how.

Speaker 9 (35:09):
Long have you been experiencing these things like before the apartment,
Like it's just something you experienced as a child to
my whole life.

Speaker 21 (35:18):
Yeah, I would see people, I would feeld things my
whole life.

Speaker 10 (35:22):
Have you like worked with anybody to be able to
control it?

Speaker 5 (35:27):
No, I just kind of like it's something that's passed
down from my mom.

Speaker 2 (35:33):
Like my mom's side.

Speaker 21 (35:33):
So the women in our family, we have femnitionis we
have We're sensitive, we're like beacons. I've never really worked
with anyone with it. I just kind of like it's
really exhausting too, right, Like you go to a place
and you it's really active, like and it's so exhausting.

Speaker 5 (35:51):
So I try and like turn it off, but I
can't really help if they come.

Speaker 21 (35:56):
That's why I was, yeah, yeah, we'll tell sure, and Okay,
So that's one place.

Speaker 2 (36:04):
There was this one place I didn't necessarily.

Speaker 21 (36:06):
Live in, but it was my friends and it was
located on Alfred. I don't know the address, but it
was Alfred, and from what I hear, there was like
really bad history.

Speaker 5 (36:19):
There was a family murder there by the step dad
and it.

Speaker 21 (36:24):
Was just really bad. Like it's so bad, and I
wasn't the only one that experienced it, but I can
only speak on mind my couple of experiences that I've experienced.
There was I was laying in my friends where I
was sleeping in her bed and I turned over and
for whatever reason, she didn't have a door on her

(36:46):
like her bedroom, Like I don't know why, but I
turned over and I was like half asleep, but I
was like more awake than half asleep. And there was
this big, big guy staring at me stand in the doorway,
and he had like his tuc that was like sideways
and it was yellow, and he was just this big,

(37:07):
huge guy and he was just staring at me, and
he was sitting.

Speaker 2 (37:11):
There like he was literally like this. He was like this.

Speaker 21 (37:16):
Freaky, freaky staring right at me, and I just I
was so terrified.

Speaker 5 (37:20):
I like I couldn't turn away, but I had to.

Speaker 2 (37:24):
Just close my eyes. And I'm like, oh my god,
I'm terrified.

Speaker 19 (37:27):
Right.

Speaker 21 (37:27):
And I didn't make up my friend, but I've seen him.
I seen him one other time in the washroom. And
then I was talking to my friend on the phone
one time and I was in her room. Everyone was downstairs.
She had her bedroom next to her brother's and I
was just yapping on the phone and I heard a

(37:49):
few bangs on the wall from her brother's room, and
then I just thought it was just her older brother
being a dick, but.

Speaker 2 (37:57):
It wasn't. Like I was like, what the F. And
it was really loud.

Speaker 5 (38:00):
It kept getting like bang bang, ben and I opened.

Speaker 2 (38:04):
Up the door.

Speaker 5 (38:04):
I was ready to like yell at him and tell him.

Speaker 2 (38:07):
To stop being a shithead. And he wasn't in there
because no one was. So that was freaky.

Speaker 21 (38:15):
I I took down, I took off, barreling down the stairs,
freaked out.

Speaker 2 (38:20):
And then there was.

Speaker 5 (38:22):
Constant balls being thrown down the stairs.

Speaker 21 (38:24):
By a little girl that no one could see, but
they could sense.

Speaker 2 (38:28):
They knew that she lived there, and she was one
of the victims. But she'd throw balls down.

Speaker 21 (38:32):
The stairs, and not one person would go in the
basement either one.

Speaker 2 (38:37):
And we're not.

Speaker 21 (38:39):
Fully sure about the other history or any other history
besides the murders, but we're probably not gonna hear about
murders either.

Speaker 2 (38:46):
My friend, right right, Yeah, Like that was freaky enough.
And yep.

Speaker 5 (38:52):
And then I was fortunate enough to.

Speaker 21 (38:56):
Move down the street from that house that was an
o fun house.

Speaker 5 (39:02):
I think that whole tire street was just haunted.

Speaker 22 (39:05):
Well, it's such an old neighborhood, right yeah, at Alford
ab and you're like, oh, yeah, a.

Speaker 8 (39:09):
Lot of neighborhoods.

Speaker 21 (39:10):
Right right in the middle is Aberdeen and Alfred, so
it's like great smack down in the middle, right yep.
And my old house that I lived on a couple
of houses away from that, my brother confirmed that his
two friends were actually killed in that house. It was
a gang house. And cause I was talking to him,
I was like, man, like, I'm this place breaks me out.

(39:32):
And then he's like oh okay, like and he didn't
tell me at first, He's like.

Speaker 2 (39:36):
Oh okay, Like, well what's happening?

Speaker 21 (39:38):
And then I was like I'd always see guys like
walking around the house, like back and forth.

Speaker 2 (39:43):
On the hallway, and the the atmosphere just changes.

Speaker 21 (39:48):
It's like super negative energy and it's just very thick
and it's just awful. And then one night I was
laying in bed with my little guy at the time,
and I heard a bang coming from my closet and
no one was in there, like it was just me
and my little guy home at the time.

Speaker 2 (40:05):
And then I w I was kind of like, well,
what the.

Speaker 21 (40:08):
Hell right, cause like it was street level, so I
went to go look upside, and no one banged on
the side of the house, right, nothing, So it was
just that house is so freaky.

Speaker 5 (40:21):
And then the downstairs had like you know how they
used to have like old.

Speaker 2 (40:27):
Cole shafts or whatever they would.

Speaker 21 (40:29):
Yeah, so that's what i'd had, right, And of course
it was covered in like it was kind of piled
in like with dirt and stuff over the years. But
I I, oh, I just I never got a good
feeling from that.

Speaker 5 (40:42):
Face when it's just m freaky.

Speaker 2 (40:45):
So we were freaky. Yeah, it was. That whole street
was just terrible.

Speaker 21 (40:50):
And the last story I have is I lived on
Magnus North End.

Speaker 2 (40:56):
It's the thing. It's all sheep read. But it was
super super super crazy haunted.

Speaker 21 (41:04):
I don't know if it was even the legit address,
you know, back in the day they had different addresses, right,
so changed. Yeah, so I couldn't find anything on that
house so like, and it wasn't a very old house.
It was like a newly built house, right, But it's
just the land right right.

Speaker 2 (41:22):
So then I thought, okay, well what the hell right,
cause you'd.

Speaker 21 (41:25):
Have I'd hear again, like people running up and down
my stairs and there was just me home, and I
would hear people call my name and it was just
me home too. Yeah yeah, and then uh, my son
again he had imaginary friends that he would talk to,
and even like other people that would come visit me,

(41:49):
they would see these operations like my boyfriend at the time.
He came to come visit, and he looked in the kitchen.
Like the way it set up is like the stairs
are like right here, and that's like downstairs is like
the front door, and you go up the stairs and
there's my little suite.

Speaker 2 (42:06):
So the kitchen is.

Speaker 21 (42:07):
Right here, and he kind of looked to the right
and he's like, what the fuck is that in your kitchen?

Speaker 2 (42:14):
Like he just kind of went into the living room.

Speaker 21 (42:15):
He's like, the fuck is that your kitchen right, like obviously,
and he's seeing a guy right.

Speaker 2 (42:19):
Right, and I'm like, who, what are you talking about?

Speaker 5 (42:22):
And he's like, there's someone in your fucking kitchen.

Speaker 2 (42:24):
I'm like, what are you talking about?

Speaker 21 (42:26):
And I went to go check there was no one there,
and you just see him and it was just wild.
And then there was a cross. This was my big
red flag when I moved in. There was a cross
above the stairs.

Speaker 2 (42:38):
No one could remove it.

Speaker 21 (42:41):
I don't even know how it was even up there,
because it's not like you can put a fucking ladder
on stairs, Like I don't know how that happened, but
it was left there, and like that was my big
red flag.

Speaker 2 (42:53):
I'm like, what what's happening here?

Speaker 19 (42:55):
Right?

Speaker 5 (42:56):
Like, I know that's been a tradition, you know, to
bless your entrances and.

Speaker 2 (43:00):
Stuff, right.

Speaker 21 (43:00):
I get that part, But the fact that it was
already there when I moved in and no one has
any explanation where I came from it kind of freaked
me out a little bit.

Speaker 2 (43:09):
But the biggest one.

Speaker 21 (43:11):
My best friend moved downstairs from me, and she's like,
what are you doing upstairs?

Speaker 3 (43:16):
Like she texted me, She's.

Speaker 2 (43:18):
Like, hey, what are you doing upstairs?

Speaker 5 (43:19):
She was like frantic, She's like do you need help?

Speaker 2 (43:22):
Like are you okay?

Speaker 5 (43:23):
I'm like, well, like, I'm fine, what's wrong?

Speaker 2 (43:25):
What's going on?

Speaker 22 (43:26):
Right?

Speaker 21 (43:26):
She's like, well, I hear banging up there, banging, Like
what kind of what are you talking about?

Speaker 2 (43:31):
She can hear it?

Speaker 22 (43:32):
You can't hear it?

Speaker 5 (43:32):
Yeah, And here's the kicker. I was like, well, what
is this sound?

Speaker 6 (43:35):
Like?

Speaker 21 (43:35):
She's like furniture moving, Like there's someone banging furniture around
like it's they're moving it around. And I'm like oh,
And she's like you need.

Speaker 2 (43:46):
Help up there?

Speaker 5 (43:46):
Like she automatically assumed I was home.

Speaker 2 (43:48):
And I was like, no, han, I'm downtown. That's weird. Yeah,
I would. No one was home and was downtown.

Speaker 5 (43:55):
I'm like, I'm not going to be back till after eight,
I'm not home.

Speaker 21 (43:59):
And she's like, oh my fucking god, waiting for side
pretty much. Yeah, like she had to take her dog
up there to check, like she's actually here tonight, and
she's like, could hear her laughing?

Speaker 2 (44:10):
She had to take her dog up there to recheck, right.

Speaker 5 (44:13):
Because we thought, oh my god, what the hell?

Speaker 21 (44:15):
Right, Like at first you're natural thinking as like someone
broke in, but everything was secure.

Speaker 5 (44:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 21 (44:23):
So there's there's a lot of other stories, but that's
for another time.

Speaker 8 (44:28):
But yeah, so much.

Speaker 2 (44:39):
Yeah, for sure.

Speaker 10 (44:51):
So we've got Paula.

Speaker 19 (44:56):
A little bit.

Speaker 17 (45:00):
Al hik out. I'll try. I think, thank you, thank you, hello?

Speaker 21 (45:10):
Can you hear me?

Speaker 17 (45:11):
Okay, I don't necessarily Well, I have some stories, uh
in Winnipeg, back when I was a fool, a young fool,
going to cemeteries with s friends just to see ghosts
at night or something and seeing the surgeon house.

Speaker 15 (45:29):
But I'm sorry, we didn't do anything.

Speaker 17 (45:39):
We just we're just kind of like hiding around and
fooling around. But we didn't do anything. We were respectful of, uh.
But Anyways, Uh, this story is actually just not mine
per se, but it was one of the freakiest stories
I've heard.

Speaker 15 (45:55):
Uh.

Speaker 17 (45:55):
This was back when I taught abroad over a decade
ago in the Republic of Georgia. This is like between
like Armenia, Turkey, and there's Georgia and then there's like.

Speaker 2 (46:10):
Russia there.

Speaker 17 (46:13):
So the Republican Georgia is a really old country. The
the middle of Georgia is the center of the city.
It's called Tibilisi, and us volunteer teachers.

Speaker 2 (46:26):
We would go and teach in this in.

Speaker 17 (46:29):
These villages to teach English. One of the towns my
friend was in because we found out we were both
from Canada. She was from Toronto. The house that she
stayed in was really old, just like the house I
stayed in, But nothing really occurred. I really haven't personally
encountered lots of things even though I have tried. But

(46:51):
for her, hers was a very interesting story. She would
stay in a bedroom.

Speaker 10 (46:59):
She has her own bed.

Speaker 17 (47:01):
And she shares it with her host's sister and her
host brother who were about ten years younger.

Speaker 15 (47:08):
But the room was big the house.

Speaker 17 (47:11):
These houses themselves are for multi family they're multifamily homes,
and her bed happened to be against like the headquard
was against a curtain like this, and behind it was
double doors that would open up.

Speaker 15 (47:29):
But the room is not used.

Speaker 2 (47:30):
It's just used for storage.

Speaker 17 (47:33):
These houses have many rooms, and when people you know,
pass away, or when the family shrinks, a lot of
rooms just go on unused. So what happened was one time,
she explained that she was sleeping and.

Speaker 2 (47:52):
I don't know, it was just nighttime.

Speaker 17 (47:54):
It was really quiet in the village.

Speaker 10 (47:56):
You know, there's not much cars, there's not much.

Speaker 17 (48:00):
Noise at all, just crickets and the occasional cow on
top of the mountain somewhere, so you don't hear anything.
It's absolute silence. So when it's really dark like that,
in the middle of the night, she heard something. She
couldn't explain what it was. It's felt like a or

(48:22):
it sounded like some sort of slothes or dull thump,
and it started to freak her out a little bit
because the place is so old and it feels like
culture shock for all of us that taught abroad there.
So what happened was a few minutes after that happened,

(48:43):
the light just went.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
On in the corner.

Speaker 17 (48:48):
It was like a a table lamp and it scared her.
Her whost sibling and her host brother was still asleep,
and she said, hey, why God, I forget their names,
but they're different in Georgia and she couldn't wake them up.
She started saying, wake up please, and I think her

(49:11):
sister stirred her hohst sister stirred and she just rolled
over and she was just still lying in bed, not knowing.

Speaker 15 (49:17):
What to do as the room was lit up.

Speaker 17 (49:20):
And then she started feeling something really strange. She felt
fingers on the top of her head right here, mind you,
she's lying on her bed, and then she looked up.

Speaker 15 (49:34):
She didn't do that right away, but she looked up,
and she's looking at.

Speaker 17 (49:38):
Where the curtain is, where it's pardon, where the door
sween it is slightly open. Nothing was there, but she
got up really fast. She jumped into her sister's bed
as she started like sobbing and crying, and her sister
was calming her down. She was awake by that time,

(49:59):
and she just stayed the night just like sleeping beside
her sister, away from that from that door. Apparently her
sister has explained that this has happened on occasion once
in a while or something with the last host teacher
that would uh come over there, but usually people don't

(50:19):
sleep on that pitch.

Speaker 15 (50:21):
Yeah, and that's the that's the story.

Speaker 2 (50:25):
Creepy.

Speaker 17 (50:26):
Yeahs like one. There's the scalp fingers.

Speaker 8 (50:37):
You know, it's just like and did you ever find
out who died from?

Speaker 17 (50:42):
No, to be honest, you never asked about that after Yeah.

Speaker 15 (50:46):
But it's a multi you know, lots of stories. Yeah,
I wish we did.

Speaker 3 (50:50):
But yeah, that's awesome, awesome, it's glad.

Speaker 10 (51:02):
Did you want to come up and uh finish off?

Speaker 2 (51:05):
And do you want to put his name on there?

Speaker 21 (51:07):
No?

Speaker 15 (51:07):
No name on sure, you want.

Speaker 3 (51:11):
To just tell me what's your name? Seven?

Speaker 10 (51:13):
Sun it?

Speaker 2 (51:13):
That's okay?

Speaker 10 (51:14):
Right after birth. Yeah, and don't.

Speaker 9 (51:34):
Forget if you haven't read, you put your name in
for a l for drawing and after the sext you gentlemen,
we'll do a drawing fast to day.

Speaker 3 (51:43):
Hello, Hello, no, welcome back.

Speaker 18 (51:48):
There's a lot of tragedy here. My mirror was to
be spilt. They all all others chaims.

Speaker 10 (52:00):
So to speak into the mic as best she can.

Speaker 18 (52:04):
You really don't want to do this? Do you for
what the experiment?

Speaker 3 (52:09):
Oh, I forgot, does anybody have a balloon?

Speaker 10 (52:12):
I forgot?

Speaker 3 (52:13):
Does anybody have a mine with them? By Jess.

Speaker 10 (52:21):
So was like something from she lets.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
Make a deal.

Speaker 18 (52:24):
So this involves stuff that's been happening my entire adult life.
And it was in twenty sixteen. Went to medium and
the whole session except this part is on a digital
voice recorder and she handed the voice quarter back to

(52:46):
me and said, well, she didn't want to take responsibility
because accidentally erasing it. So she handed back me to
turn off, and I turned it off. And then she said, oh,
by the way, there's been a spirit of adult come
in and out three or four times. And I said, no.
Never had a dog, he said, neighbor friend. Nope, nope.

(53:10):
She paused, let it, you know, sit for a while,
and then she said it's a black and white dog.
And I said, well, yeah, my aunt had a Boston
Terrier when I was a kid. And so I'll just
tell the one incident that happened from nineteen eighties somewhere

(53:32):
where I was in a grocery store and some little kid,
he's probably two years old. He's all jumpy and skippy
and pointing in my direction and happy, and he's saying
something which I'm not trying to understand two year old language,
so I don't know what he said. But his mother
is very short with him and grabs him by the

(53:54):
arm and yanks him hard, like if it was today,
somebody probably would have said something to her about, hey,
you're being alone, so rough on your kid there, And
she says, there's nothing there, So clearly this had happened
before with her son. There's a bunch of other stories
like that. Then after she had told me this, I

(54:16):
realized it was this Boston Terrier of my aunt's. His
name was Jimmy, that maybe he knock that over. I
went home late one night after a little girl in
the superstore had seen the dog and she was trying
to she was saying something. She came running over me,
and I don't think she was speaking English necessarily because

(54:40):
her parents weren't speaking English to her. But she went
back to her parents, and then she came running over again,
pointing to my left, and she said uppy. So she
was trying to say puppy, but wow. So I went
home about two in the morning, had clothes on the
garage door and I'm about to walk exit the walk

(55:03):
indoor when I realized the door's reversed, because you know,
it sounds different going up and going down. So I
look and I go over, Well, what happened? Did something
trigger that? You know, there's two safety features on the door.
There's resistance if it encounters too much resistance coming down
and reverses. And then there's the light right if the

(55:23):
beam is broken reverses. So I look, while did a
hunk a snowfall on the off my car and you know,
hit the resistance switch? No, no, I look, there's no reason.
If I go back, I hit close again, and this
time I watch and yeah, the door gets down to
about this height and reverses. So I think it was

(55:46):
the spirit of the dog had enough physicality to either
break the light or cause the resistance. Now that dog
had a trick it learned late in life, which was
bouncing up below boon off its nose in the air.
So my theory is it may have enough physicality to

(56:08):
be able to bounce the balloon. So that's what I
talked about the experiment. If somebody, if somebody had a balloon,
we would try it right now, in this location with
levers involved. But if there's no balloon, we're not going
to do it. So anyway, that's the story.

Speaker 10 (56:29):
That's awesome.

Speaker 18 (56:39):
No, I want somebody else to bring the balloon, to
bring their energy into the.

Speaker 9 (56:43):
If I remember all right, I.

Speaker 10 (57:01):
Said, you're our last contestant.

Speaker 18 (57:03):
Oh wow, I fancy stuffs.

Speaker 23 (57:06):
Perhaps, so I've got a pretty short story. It's not
like but it is pretty dense with stuff. So my
grandparents' home in Woolsey, it was always kind of spooky
to me, but only in certain areas. And there's this
one area underneath the stairs, because there's like a little

(57:28):
hallway that goes underneath the stairs to like a cupboard.
And I would always keep a bag of my toy
blocks over there, and one night I heard them all
fall over. And I always keep it pretty securely there.

Speaker 2 (57:39):
So I go over there and.

Speaker 23 (57:41):
I'm looking, I'm picking up all the blocks and I
just felt something. I was like, oh, yeah, the heck,
like it feels cold. I looked up and the window
was open, and I mean, this is like seven year
old me, so it might not be what I thought
it was, but I saw one of those classic great aliens.

(58:01):
I'm telling you. This is pretty creaky shit, pretty weird
for me because like I remember it pretty vividly, beady
black eyes and like it was a gray alien on
the wall, like spider climbing on the wall. Shit, and
I ran, Oh yeah, I just ran.

Speaker 3 (58:18):
So it got in through the windows.

Speaker 23 (58:20):
Well yeah, And I go to my dad. I'm like,
the windows open, there's something up there. There's this alien
over there. We don't open that window. Like, we don't
ever go to that window. We don't ever go back there.
You're the only one that ever goes back there because
you have those toy blocks over there. And I'm like,
over there, Dad, is the windows open there? He didn't
see it, Like it probably ran away if it's real,

(58:41):
of course. But that's pretty much the whole story. Wow, people,
I mean, I mean, considering how old are you now,
twenty four.

Speaker 2 (58:48):
And you were seven, and you still remember it that vividly.

Speaker 23 (58:51):
Right, Well, I only remember the image, but still, and
I kind of remember, through telling the story multiple times
what happened around the story, But I remember that image
of just looking straight at me.

Speaker 21 (59:02):
Yeah, that's weird.

Speaker 23 (59:05):
But I was a kid, so I don't remember it all,
you know, that's fine. And it's it's not like paranormal
ghost stuff. It's alien stuff. But I saw aliens.

Speaker 3 (59:17):
Yeah, I don't know what that's awesome.

Speaker 2 (59:18):
All right, Well that's all I got.

Speaker 4 (59:21):
Picture is stuck in your brain, in your mind for
so long like that to me alone, says you know
something to it?

Speaker 23 (59:28):
Yeah, it scared me a lot. Well, I'm seven years old.
But here's the thing. I had just recently watched for
the first time, like not recently in the past weeks,
but in the past months. Had just recently watched movies
about things like that. Yeah, but then again, like, I
don't know, I don't know what.

Speaker 17 (59:46):
To say about it.

Speaker 2 (59:46):
Well, have you had any experience?

Speaker 23 (59:50):
I haven't seen them, but you know, there have been
moments where I've been like, yo, was he back?

Speaker 19 (59:56):
He was?

Speaker 10 (59:57):
You never do one of those things you were saying
by pit fire.

Speaker 3 (01:00:00):
No, you're something that's dark and you call it from
the sky.
