1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,680 [Music] 2 00:00:09,680 --> 00:00:19,680 Hello and welcome to our podcast Talk Gruesome to me, where we talk about movies and shows that cover true crime, paranormal, and horror. 3 00:00:19,680 --> 00:00:27,920 I am one of your hosts, Dawn. I am currently located in Los Angeles and I think I'm pretty well versed in the horror genre, 4 00:00:27,920 --> 00:00:35,360 especially those 80s classics. A quick fun fact about me. I have a very extensive crystal collection. 5 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:43,920 Hello, I'm Amy. I'm from Kentucky and my area of expertise for this podcast is paranormal. A few fun facts about me. 6 00:00:43,920 --> 00:00:50,240 I'm an empath, I collect old dolls and you know, I've never flown on an airplane. Can you believe that? 7 00:00:50,240 --> 00:00:57,600 Now Dawn and I are also obsessed with true crime, so here we are. Talk Gruesome to me. 8 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:03,760 All right, welcome into this mini-sode. I know that a lot of you did show interest when we were talking 9 00:01:03,760 --> 00:01:11,040 before about the house that I grew up in, how it was active and how a lot of the times it scared me 10 00:01:11,040 --> 00:01:16,720 to death. So we thought we would do a quick little minisode and I'll tell you about it. 11 00:01:16,720 --> 00:01:23,440 Yeah, people were definitely asking for more details. Yeah, it's one of those houses that, 12 00:01:23,440 --> 00:01:33,040 it definitely made me really believe. I spent a lot of time in the upstairs bedroom. The upstairs 13 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:40,400 of my home was a just the full size of the upstairs. It was a three bedroom home. We had a spare bedroom. 14 00:01:40,400 --> 00:01:47,680 We had my mom and dad's room and then mine upstairs. I stayed up there for, I would say probably a year 15 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:54,160 at a time or so, and then something would scare me. I don't remember exactly what each thing was 16 00:01:54,160 --> 00:02:01,120 that would scare me. But I would get scared, move back down to the other bedroom and I remember I 17 00:02:01,120 --> 00:02:08,880 went as far as to get a twin bed, put it in there and fix it up. So like, I pretty much had two bedrooms. 18 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:17,200 It was crazy. I went through a lot of hearing voices and walking scuffling, you know, just kind of, 19 00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:23,760 I had a lot of walking scuffling, like someone trying to get across the carpet in the room. It was just 20 00:02:23,760 --> 00:02:32,240 really, really crazy things that I didn't know how to explain. I remember I hadn't lived there very 21 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:38,080 long, and one of my friends, Shanda. Her parents had lived there before or not her parents, her grandparents. 22 00:02:38,080 --> 00:02:43,840 Let me correct myself, had lived there before and I remember we were upstairs playing, and we were 23 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:49,040 sitting at the top of the steps by the closet. She looks over at me as we were playing and she said, 24 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:54,160 'you know this house is haunted don't you?’. It kind of started making  a little bit of sense, because 25 00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:02,800 I already experienced some things, so after that I was 100% intrigued with that house. My parents really 26 00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:11,200 didn't believe in spirits, in the paranormal. I really didn't open up and go to them a lot because 27 00:03:11,200 --> 00:03:18,160 what was really the sense in it you know no sense. Yeah. How old were you when you moved in there? 28 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:24,960 Oh my gosh, I was young, I was in the second grade when we moved there. My dad, that's a funny 29 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:30,960 story too. Mom had went and got me from school that day and we had went home. We had lived in a trailer 30 00:03:30,960 --> 00:03:36,000 out on this, I loved it that was a great piece of land. I had my first paranormal experience there 31 00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,520 actually but we had lived out on this real nice piece of land out in the country. Had a pond of 32 00:03:41,520 --> 00:03:47,680 our own and I was happy there. I wasn't thinking about anywhere else. Dad come home that one day 33 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:54,080 and he said, 'come on let's go to town, I've bought a house. So, we go to town and get to go through it. He 34 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,880 had bought it at auction and knew that it needed a little bit of work on the inside. He said, ‘it's 35 00:03:58,880 --> 00:04:04,400 gonna be a little bit before we get in there, but this is where we're gonna live’. I didn't know 36 00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:10,000 that house would stay with me until just two years ago actually. I remember when 37 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:16,480 you used to investigate there and even seeing that I had questions, you know how how long you had 38 00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:22,400 lived there, when you moved in? It is cool though that you know the people that lived there before so 39 00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:29,440 they could kind of corroborate these things that were happening. Right, yeah she said that she was scared 40 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:35,440 to live there when, I guess when she would stay. I think upstairs there wasn't proper heating 41 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:41,680 And air when they had it, that had to be done by us. They were trying to use it as like a sewing 42 00:04:41,680 --> 00:04:48,160 and crafting room. But, by the time she had got it ready, she wasn't able to get up the stairs. 43 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:54,000 Nothing really ever happened with it, until it is stayed vacant, until I moved in stayed up there 44 00:04:54,000 --> 00:05:01,840 Do you think a location sitting vacant, do you think that can up the activity? It did with that house, so 45 00:05:01,840 --> 00:05:08,320 yes with my mother, we had no choice but to have her put into a nursing home. Bless her heart, she 46 00:05:08,320 --> 00:05:15,600 wasn't able to get around, and we wasn't able to safely transfer her to and from. That house sit 47 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:24,400 vacant for six, seven months I'm gonna assume, maybe a little bit longer.Then me and Shannon 48 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:32,320 decided to go in and clean it up and totally remodel it and we moved in. We did experience 49 00:05:32,320 --> 00:05:39,680 some things before, while we were cleaning, and then also after we moved in. We went as far to 50 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:47,280 actually reach out to a paranormal team in the county near us, they had everything you could ask for 51 00:05:47,280 --> 00:05:54,640 in a team. We met Bill, he's on ordained minister, and he is the head of that team. That's how 52 00:05:54,640 --> 00:06:01,360 we got the house to where you were able to actually live there peacefully, a lot of help from that team. 53 00:06:01,360 --> 00:06:05,840 Do you remember the very first thing that happened, or you were too young you don't remember? 54 00:06:06,400 --> 00:06:13,040 I remember, it started a lot with just the dog standing at the end of the bed and barking. It was 55 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:18,080 one of those rooms, it's real long and slender and you could see all the way down it because it was just 56 00:06:18,080 --> 00:06:25,760 the whole the whole size of the house, so I remember my bed was facing the window at the very end and 57 00:06:25,760 --> 00:06:32,400 Cheech my little dog. Oh, that a cool name. Cheech and Chong, that's what I named after. But 58 00:06:32,400 --> 00:06:39,120 she should stand at that end and she would bark down toward the stairs. Sometimes she would 59 00:06:39,120 --> 00:06:45,920 get his brave, as to run down there and kind of look and then run back to the bed and bark and growl. 60 00:06:45,920 --> 00:06:51,760 So, that was some of the first things that I remember starting to happen. Does Shannon remember 61 00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:57,520 his first thing that happened when he moved in? Yeah, that was before we even moved in. He remembers, 62 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:03,680 yeah the first thing that happened to him is, he was going down into the basement after it had been 63 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:08,560 vacant for a little bit. Or I can't remember, wait don't quote me on that either, whether mothers still alive 64 00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:13,920 there I can't remember. When we were starting to clean it up, one or the other he went 65 00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:20,960 down the basement, and he heard a loud hiss come to the left side of his ear as he was going down the 66 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:28,880 steps. You know Shannon is not the type to be super scared, so when he says something scared him, 67 00:07:28,880 --> 00:07:37,520 I do I trust in that. Yeah, me too. Yeah Shannon, he usually looks for some other kind of explanation 68 00:07:37,520 --> 00:07:42,640 or you know something, but this one actually scared him. And then I remember it was, and we we're 69 00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:48,320 trying to clean the house up, it had got mold that we didn't know about, and mom was the kind the 70 00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:53,920 type that never had any money to fix anything, you know how that goes. And in one of the closets, above it 71 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:59,760 the roof had been leaking into the closet and caused a little bit of mold, so we had to go in there 72 00:07:59,760 --> 00:08:05,440 and we had to clean a lot of that up. Sadly I had to get rid of a lot of stuff that I didn't 73 00:08:05,440 --> 00:08:11,360 really want to, but it was just ruined by that time. Well, I was in her bedroom and I was going through 74 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:16,240 looking at things looking to see what could be saved and what needed to be gotten rid of, and Shannon 75 00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:21,280 was in the living room, he was setting on the couch and he was going through her entertainment 76 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:27,120 center, seeing what she had in there. This woman bless, her heart she saved and kept everything. 77 00:08:27,120 --> 00:08:32,160 I'm looking at Shannon and I can't remember I just said something to him, I think it was getting late 78 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:37,040 and we were probably about ready to head to the house but he's looking at me, I'm looking to hear him 79 00:08:37,040 --> 00:08:44,720 and the door just slams shut, like with force. It shut, and that door was one of those kind of 80 00:08:44,720 --> 00:08:50,160 doors where you just shut it and it's gonna you know, do like this, and it's not gonna close. You have to 81 00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:57,040 actually put the force to it to make it close. That right there, I looked at Shannon, I said 'let's go’. 82 00:08:57,040 --> 00:09:04,360 From that moment on, I did not go back there by myself to clean the house up. I always made sure Shannon was 83 00:09:04,360 --> 00:09:10,640 with me, because when I would go by myself, I was scared. I'm not going to lie, when a door slams, you know 84 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:20,800 that was wild. I just, it's just like, I knew that that house was very capable of doing physical 85 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:27,200 actions I guess.  I was talking to mom, I believe I've already talked about this when, did I 86 00:09:27,200 --> 00:09:34,880 tell of the frying pan story? You did. I was gonna ask you if you think that was the biggest activity 87 00:09:34,880 --> 00:09:41,280 that happened? Yes,  when mom had said that someone was beating on that frying pan, or my 88 00:09:41,280 --> 00:09:47,280 goodness, she lived alone. I got there the next day to clean it up, and it was bent in like for those, if 89 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:53,680 you that are watching on YouTube, the pan you know it was shaped like this in the middle. So, I'm like 90 00:09:53,680 --> 00:09:59,360 whoa! When I picked it up, I picked it up put it in the sink to wash it, and right then I just knew 91 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:07,360 something was banging hard. For one, mom listened to her TV loud. She didn't hear very well, for her to 92 00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:13,440 hear that beating and banging over that.Yeah, that's a lot of force, so I knew that that house was 93 00:10:13,440 --> 00:10:22,400 capable of shutting doors and tearing up pans. Right. I should have asked to does Hayden remember his 94 00:10:22,400 --> 00:10:29,680 first experience. Yes. yeah he does. He will tell you if you ask him about it. When he would lay in bed, 95 00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:35,600 and one thing that we did not do, was let the cat stay upstairs with Hayden with the door shut. 96 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:39,680 They can't get to their food, they can't get to their water, and they can't get to their litter boxes. 97 00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:43,680 So, every night we would let them stay up there till time to go to bed, then everybody come down. 98 00:10:43,680 --> 00:10:50,960 Well, he said the first time that it happened, he remembers the steps, because we had the little 99 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:55,520 lights as you go down. The motion lights, so when you go down them, you could see. We didn't want 100 00:10:55,520 --> 00:11:00,880 anybody to fall that was coming and  going. These were pretty steep stairs. He remembers them coming 101 00:11:00,880 --> 00:11:06,720 up the stairs and turning on one by themselves. He got up thinking, oh well I guess thinking  one of the cats, or it was 102 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:12,240 going down I think, one of the cats must have gotten locked up in here, and they're just trying to get out. 103 00:11:12,240 --> 00:11:17,120 So he got up, walked to the bottom, he’s going to let the cat out. There was no cat down there, and that 104 00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:23,600 It became a pretty pretty regular occurrence. Was the lights going on and off? He has recordings of 105 00:11:23,600 --> 00:11:28,960 them, well I'm not going to say he does, now but he used to have recordings of them. Actually, him 106 00:11:28,960 --> 00:11:35,200 just laying there and it going off and on off and on all night long. He used to be, he was so fascinated 107 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:42,000 he would also have a lot of weird dreams about a house that was in front of us. It was abandoned 108 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:48,640 and it was in pretty rough shape. He had so many dreams about, well let's say this, to the fact that he 109 00:11:48,640 --> 00:11:52,960 made me promise him that I would not go in that house when he wasn't around, 110 00:11:52,960 --> 00:11:57,840 that there was an older lady that lived in there. He said she kind of looked not like 111 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:03,520 maybe a wicked witch, you know like if you're watching a cartoon. She kept trying to get him to 112 00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:10,560 come into that house, so he was really kind of scared about that as well. When he was in your house, was 113 00:12:10,560 --> 00:12:18,000 he scared or was he feeling more like it was just a friendly entity in the beginning? When he was 114 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:24,560 young, yeah he was kind of scared. He did not like windows, he wanted me to have the windows covered 115 00:12:24,560 --> 00:12:30,480 at night. I had night lights everywhere, but who can blame the kid because I was scared. When I was there. 116 00:12:30,480 --> 00:12:36,240 You know I I totally get it. Right, well I always feel bad when I hear people say that their 117 00:12:36,240 --> 00:12:41,440 kids are scared and they don't believe them. So they tell them you know, oh it's in your head 118 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:49,280 or whatever. So, at least he had you to relate I tried to remind him that anything that was here 119 00:12:49,280 --> 00:12:57,280 that was negative that was scaring me when I was a child has been taken care of and now we only have 120 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:03,760 the spirits around that are, as I would like to refer to them, from our of the white light. Because, 121 00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:10,400 I do regularly cleanse and take care of things like that, so that would kind of help him as well. But 122 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:17,840 you know, when you're 8, 9, 10 ,11...you’re gonna be still kind of spooked. The first time 123 00:13:17,840 --> 00:13:23,040 that I remember him ever really having a paranormal experience, and he didn't tell me this till like 124 00:13:23,040 --> 00:13:29,360 a year or so after, well no several years after actually. He was only, he was three when 125 00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,960 he had this one, in our first apartment of a woman that would come in. that was a shadow and 126 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:40,080 she would sit on the edge of his bed and watch him sleep. So, he's another child who has 127 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:46,960 always experienced things like this, I remember it wasn't nothing for me and Shannon to wake up in the 128 00:13:46,960 --> 00:13:52,000 morning or through the middle of the night and Hayden be in the bed with us, so he’s, I believe he's 129 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:58,160 open. Oh that's what I was gonna say do, you think he gets that from Shannon? Probably, probably, and 130 00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:05,600 probably even his mama too. Yeah, you believe that having that team come in there, they were able to 131 00:14:05,600 --> 00:14:13,040 get rid of any dark things, but any of the things that were more light were welcome to stay there, 132 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:19,920 and they did because you had activity. Yeah, I mean that's I’ll always say, I'll do a cleansing 133 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:24,720 that if you're from the light you're allowed to come and go, I mean because really how can you 134 00:14:24,720 --> 00:14:30,720 block something of the light. You know, they come and go they're not meaning any harm.  Yeah, I really do 135 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:37,920 think that did help, because they said that we had an elemental in the basement. An elemental is 136 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:44,640 a being that has never been alive, they have been here for gosh millions of cotrillions billions 137 00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:52,960 billion long long time. You have several different, but this one that he did say that we had was a 138 00:14:52,960 --> 00:15:01,680 grimlin. Wait, what? Yeah, tell me more. It was just down there, had been down there for the longest time 139 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:07,760 and just terrorizing. Of course I don't want to go fully into this one, but I had met an individual 140 00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:18,240 who did go into the house and sort of feed this elemental. She claimed to be, and I'm not 141 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:25,520 downing her whatsoever, a high priestess. I think that kind of open a lot of it up as well. And now that 142 00:15:25,520 --> 00:15:32,000 I'm getting into that part of the story, I'm wanting to say that the hiss happened when we were 143 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:37,280 getting ready to move in for Shannon. When we were thinking about cleaning it up and doing all that. 144 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:45,760 And it didn't scare you way? No, it's like okay it'll be fun, until it wasn’t. Another thing that I think 145 00:15:45,760 --> 00:15:51,920 did add some of the activity, and I'm not talking about the negative activity. I'm talking about just 146 00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:58,720 spirit coming and going would be from the church that used to stand in the back of our house. 147 00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:04,320 That was the first African-American church built in the 1800s for our town and that was something 148 00:16:04,320 --> 00:16:10,960 that was really big for us. Well not for us, for them I should say. I've always loved that church. 149 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:16,320 I loved that piece of history behind the house. I used to take pictures of it, I just adored that 150 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:26,320 little place. Sadly someone was cooking illegal substances in it, and it I was, just trying to 151 00:16:26,320 --> 00:16:32,880 figure out how to say that, were cooking illegal substances in it. It ended in the church having 152 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:42,240 to be torn down which broke my heart. The neighbor who had found out that had been done and actually 153 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:48,640 owned the church, he had of course tear it down, and then he had a gazebo built there in its memory 154 00:16:48,640 --> 00:16:56,640 but it's not the it's not the same. So, I don't know if maybe that caused a little bit of upset. 155 00:16:56,640 --> 00:17:04,640 I know you still have the church bell with the memory on the front, but it's not the same. I just 156 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,840 always have wondered if maybe, that possibly caused a little bit of, as we would call it around here in 157 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:18,160 Kentucky, ruckus. I mean it makes sense. Yeah, because that's awful. So, there was activity before when you 158 00:17:18,160 --> 00:17:27,760 were little do you think your mom, Amy and her mom made a Ouija board do you think that invited the dark 159 00:17:27,760 --> 00:17:34,160 or do you think the dark was already there? Outside of the elemental, it probably invited, because I 160 00:17:34,160 --> 00:17:41,360 didn't know what in the world I was doing. I mean I did say goodbye. I used to, I made it out 161 00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:47,440 of a leaf of a table that had been cut, so it was like a perfectly nice little size thick wood. 162 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:53,840 It was nice, and I took a permanent marker and wrote everything out on it, and then we had taken a 163 00:17:53,840 --> 00:18:00,240 wine glass and turned it upside down into a planchet, and that's how me and mom used it. But no never mind, 164 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:04,160 I wouldn't have. I was getting ready to say I probably put it up under the couch with the 165 00:18:04,160 --> 00:18:09,200 planchet on top, but not with a wine glass. I don't know, and I did have one, like I told you 166 00:18:09,200 --> 00:18:14,240 but I don't know what happened to it. An actual one from Walmart. I don't know if I stored that one 167 00:18:14,240 --> 00:18:21,360 properly, so probably it could have, because you definitely want to make sure you close out your sessions. 168 00:18:21,360 --> 00:18:29,040 It's just like a spirit box or an app on a phone, and obviously ouija boards are just the exact same 169 00:18:29,040 --> 00:18:36,080 thing, it's a device to contact the spirits, to contact the dead, so you want to close out that session. 170 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:41,840 Very important, and listen I did it when I was a kid I didn't know how to close it out that’s like 171 00:18:42,800 --> 00:18:49,600 how would you know, and and that's pretty common right. Yeah and mom, you know it was like fun for all 172 00:18:49,600 --> 00:18:55,280 ages eight and above, so you know it it was something to do back then, it's not something you see 173 00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:01,840 around now because we've kind of realized that there is something to them. Yeah, if there's one thing 174 00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:06,800 all these shows have been good for even though they don't teach you how to open and close at least, 175 00:19:06,800 --> 00:19:12,560 people might feel a little nervous using something like that. Well the scary thing, or 176 00:19:12,560 --> 00:19:21,440 not the scary, what I mean to say, that the sad thing to me is that people are so scared of them. Terrified. 177 00:19:21,440 --> 00:19:27,920 I hate that, because it's a tool, all you have to do is know how to properly use it. Just 178 00:19:27,920 --> 00:19:35,520 like any other tool, Amy and I have a couple of friends who will use them on live regularly. The comments 179 00:19:35,520 --> 00:19:44,400 go off the rails every single time. What are you doing, why are you doing that, that's gonna get you 180 00:19:44,400 --> 00:19:52,720 possessed, all the comments come in and they'll just say same thing. This is just like using a spirit box, 181 00:19:52,720 --> 00:20:02,080 and it is. I mean 100%, so yeah oh my goodness that house it it'll always have a place 182 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:11,440 in the memories for why I want to do what we're doing now, why I have such a heart for it. I want 183 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:19,520 to understand I feel, and another thing like people say, 'aren't you scared?' For the majority of the time, 184 00:20:19,520 --> 00:20:27,440 no I've been scared before. I've felt when I've needed to be scared. When we do most of the communicating 185 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:34,960 that we do, I have a different understanding of these were for the most part individuals were 186 00:20:34,960 --> 00:20:41,600 alive just like I am, and you know what, sooner or later I'm gonna be passed just like they are. So, 187 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:46,720 just treat them with respect and keep your intentions pure. I didn't know any of that when I was a 188 00:20:46,720 --> 00:20:56,080 little girl, so up and down the steps I went right. Well do you think, obviously when you're little 189 00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:03,200 you don't know the difference, but when do you think you felt like you kind of knew what was going on, 190 00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:10,240 because you had some sense yourself with some types of abilities. For you it's a little different, for 191 00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:15,920 Shannon it's a little different than someone else because those people can't tell, is this negative, 192 00:21:15,920 --> 00:21:23,200 is this not negative, so at what point do you feel like your intuition kicked in and you were like, oh 193 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:34,240 this is good, this is bad? In my 20s, I started getting really bad feelings. I knew something was gonna happen. 194 00:21:34,240 --> 00:21:39,120 And at this point, it was kind of rocky you know, I was making my way through life you know. I had a 195 00:21:39,120 --> 00:21:45,280 few situations that were rocky, you know how it is when you're that age. I would get these feelings 196 00:21:45,280 --> 00:21:51,040 something is going to happen. Sometimes I would know what it was ,but most of the time I didn’t. And I'll be 197 00:21:51,040 --> 00:21:59,920 darn it, turn around bam it happens. So, I started realizing something, something's going on here. And then 198 00:21:59,920 --> 00:22:08,080 I've had, I don't call them dreams because yeah I might have been falling asleep or asleep but they 199 00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:16,080 were so real. I feel like, I feel like one time I actually got to witness an individual have a 200 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:24,800 car wreak, right like it was bam in my face, and I'm just, I think about him all the time. Like were you trying 201 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:31,840 to reach me, and I didn't you know, what I'm saying realize that. Then, I don't know. Yeah, so up until 202 00:22:31,840 --> 00:22:39,360 your 20s, you didn't know if this was good bad otherwise you were just probably scared. I just did 203 00:22:39,360 --> 00:22:45,920 what I did, I lived my life, I didn't think about it. I don't think, I mean yeah, I was scared. but I don't 204 00:22:45,920 --> 00:22:54,240 remember talking about it to my friends. I don't remember being ashamed of it and I don't know why I 205 00:22:54,240 --> 00:22:59,840 didn’t, maybe I guess because same reason I didn't speak about it to my mom and dad. They 206 00:22:59,840 --> 00:23:06,720 didn't necessarily believe. That makes sense.  Yeah, I feel like that happens to most people when they're 207 00:23:06,720 --> 00:23:12,240 going through this they don't know who would believe or who to talk to. Well maybe not most, but a lot. 208 00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:19,600 I had like who in the world, I had nobody to talk to. Then, when I realized when I was 16 years old, 209 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:26,480 I realized that my mama Ruby who had just passed away, that was my dad's mother, that she was in the 210 00:23:26,480 --> 00:23:31,280 room with me a lot of nights. It took me a minute to put it together, I don't know why I didn't 211 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:37,840 realize something was going on there. Did you tell Shannon before he started coming over, that this 212 00:23:37,840 --> 00:23:44,960 was going on ,or no the hiss is what made him realize it. Yeah, I think he did hear some of the stories 213 00:23:44,960 --> 00:23:50,080 He did oh, so he knew. Yeah he knew, and then he had heard that when mom had  the pan and it was 214 00:23:50,080 --> 00:24:01,280 hit, so yeah he did know. Okay, I just had a question what was it, 215 00:24:01,280 --> 00:24:12,240 Did you ever have cabinets open not that I can remember? I 216 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:19,280 feel like that's so freaky to me, and I don't know why. No, not that I can remember now I'm looking over 217 00:24:19,280 --> 00:24:25,680 here at my dolls on the table, one time me and mom were sitting downstairs watching TV and heard a 218 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:32,000 loud thump up in my room. We walked up the stairs, I'll remember the good times, that's when mom 219 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,280 could get around real good. Well, we went up the stairs, and we went and looked. The dolls were, 220 00:24:37,280 --> 00:24:44,960 just fell over, but they didn't fall like you would think they would, over face down. They somehow 221 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:51,360 turned around and fell face up, three of them were laying face up straight up. Would you think 222 00:24:51,360 --> 00:25:01,040 Its considered polterized activity? No, I don't think so I think it was Mama Ruby up there. oh okay, I do 223 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:06,640 I think it was her up there trying to get attention. Another thing that makes me believe that, is 224 00:25:06,640 --> 00:25:12,240 that the dresses on the dolls were perfect, their hats weren't messed up, their hair wasn’t. One of them 225 00:25:12,240 --> 00:25:18,400 was a princess Diana doll, daddy bought me that one. Gosh, I lost all those when with 226 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:24,000 with the house, but anyways they were just laying there just as pretty. their hair, her hat was still on 227 00:25:24,000 --> 00:25:30,480 everything. I mean just like you had, like I'd laid it down there gonna dust or something, I think 228 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:37,920 that if it had been something more so poltergeist, there'd been some more damage when, don’t you think 229 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:43,200 that you just slung them or it would have just slung it? I don't know I just feel like that was done 230 00:25:43,200 --> 00:25:50,720 in a more like an attention, I could be wrong but I don't think there was, no I can't think of anything 231 00:25:50,720 --> 00:25:57,120 else it could be considered a poltergeist happening, no. I'm surprised that you wouldn't have had 232 00:25:57,120 --> 00:26:04,240 poltergeist activity, just because of you and or Shannon being in the house and having 233 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:11,200 some types of abilities. I'm surprised that I did not have poltergeist activity when I was 234 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:19,280 going through the Mama Ruby faze, spending her time with me. I was at 16 or 17 years old, and you 235 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:28,320 know how that kind of thing goes. So, I'm surprised it didn't happen then. Yeah. You know yeah me and mom 236 00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:33,920 would just hang out, we would sit down at the coffee table in the living room put the ouija 237 00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:41,360 board on the table. We would talk for an hour or so, slide it back up under the couch and then 238 00:26:41,360 --> 00:26:53,280 good night go to bed. Did it ever make sense? Yes, oh yes, I believe at that point, it was mom 239 00:26:53,280 --> 00:27:02,320 asking, yeah mom was talking to Mama Ruby. You don't ever think she was moving it? No. No, because 240 00:27:02,320 --> 00:27:09,520 she got mad when time thinking I was. Oh. So, I don't think she was, because I really think she wanted to 241 00:27:09,520 --> 00:27:17,840 believe. So I got, like I said got much further after that. She started to believe that things were 242 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:23,920 really happening. And when I had started opening up as I got a little bit older, I started telling her 243 00:27:23,920 --> 00:27:29,840 things because that was when the stuff with Mama Ruby started happening. It was a lot, it was a 244 00:27:29,840 --> 00:27:36,080 lot more than what I was used to. Because she was trying to reach out so hard, it's too bad that you 245 00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:41,280 weren't investigating then because you could have helped her.Oh my gosh, that night when I seen her 246 00:27:41,280 --> 00:27:49,920 clear as day looking at me, if I could have just not ran, had my equipment and the recorder, I mean 247 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:57,040 recording video, it had been great. Oh my goodness, nobody would have believed it of course, but 248 00:27:57,760 --> 00:28:01,280 I'm not going to say I'm not thankful I didn't grow up with that all that stuff too though. 249 00:28:01,280 --> 00:28:10,720 Right. It was nice, but yeah if I could go back and have that experience now, I would totally, it would 250 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:19,120 be something way different. I would react way, way more paranormal investigator brained. And if anyone has 251 00:28:19,120 --> 00:28:25,840 any specific questions I don't know that I saw any, or if I did I don't remember any specific 252 00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:36,000 questions about the house, or Amy or Shannon or Hayden's experiences there, feel free to ask. Oh yeah 253 00:28:36,000 --> 00:28:41,520 most definitely, I could probably talk a little bit longer on this, but because there was a lot that 254 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:48,320 happened when I was younger  but I know this is a minisode, so we're gonna save that for later. 255 00:28:48,320 --> 00:28:53,840 If people do have questions, we could always either do another quick one or 256 00:28:53,840 --> 00:29:00,640 just answer them in the comments. Iif it's something simple yes, yes of course. All right, well thanks for 257 00:29:00,640 --> 00:29:08,400 sharing with everybody I know people were curious so hopefully you enjoyed hearing about Amy's house. 258 00:29:08,400 --> 00:29:14,800 Oh my goodness, yes thank you for sitting here and listen to me talk about it. I never have, I will tell you 259 00:29:14,800 --> 00:29:22,240 questioned if spirits are real, and probably because of my background and growing up that's 260 00:29:23,040 --> 00:29:30,080 why you will never see me really question. Thank you guys, I you know I really enjoy doing this 261 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:41,120 and we're at what episode now. This will be around 14 ish. Got you.
