Episode 1.2 "The Ghost in 11A and The Luxor Laugh"

In this episode, Tina & Suzanne dive back into the apartment that sparked some of their strangest paranormal experiences - from mysterious footsteps and moving objects to unsettling energy shifts that still stick with them years later. What started as playful "prankster" activities soon turned darker after a move to another unit, leading to terrifying moments they still can't explain. 

These stories include phantom footsteps in the hallway, doors opening on their own, electronics behaving strangely, and the eerie feeling of being watched. They also talk about the emotional side of living with unexplained activity - how fear, intuition, grief and even comfort can all intertwine with supernatural experiences.

The conversation turns to Vegas, where a stay at the Luxor turned unexpectedly haunted, complete with disembodied laughter and shadow figures.  They also visited Zak Bagans' Haunted Museum, and Tina explains why she never wants to go back. 

If you love ghost stories, paranormal encounters, creepy apartment lore and friends laughing through their fear, this episode is for you.

SPEAKER_01 0:29

Okay. Is this thing on? So hey, we're back. It's been a hot minute. You know, we're trying to figure out what's a good uh introduction. What would you guys like?

SPEAKER_00 0:44

Here is an introduction.

SPEAKER_01 0:45

So so take one was hello and welcome back.

SPEAKER_00 0:51

The inversion is thick. We can hardly breathe.

SPEAKER_01 0:54

Send help immediately. Can we please tell you some ghost stories? Yes. Or do you like take two? Yo, yo, yo!

SPEAKER_02 1:03

Zentinos here. We're back. Nas, we got some stories for you. Yeah. For real. For reels, yo. Yeah, let me put my grill in. It's just so gonna get in and out. Oh, I cannot.

SPEAKER_01 1:18

No way. No how. But anyway, so for all two of our listeners who are, again, me and Tina, we are back. That's how important we are. We're our own listeners. And we we listened to our old one. We're like, okay, here's what we talked about. So let's start fresh with this. So we thought we would go back to revisit Tina's apartment because we kind of left off on there, and so much stuff happened in that apartment. Like crazy stuff. And not all of it was haunted.

SPEAKER_00 1:52

I mean, you know, like um originally we lived in one unit, and I think that ghost had followed us or my brother's home. And in that unit, it there wasn't a lot of activity. I came home from work one day and the top of my bed, because I'm a bed maker, your bed has to be made every day. I don't understand people that don't make their beds with pillows and duvets. Yes, and the cotton, not cotton, but a very fancy blanket at the end that looks very sense and sensibility. Anywho.

SPEAKER_01 2:35

I promise we haven't been drinking. Okay, so you just to recap, you lived at your brother's house for a month while your apartment was being finished. These are brand new construction apartments. You moved into a two-bedroom apartment, 11B, as we like to call it. 11B. And you moved in and wasn't necessarily any activity. You didn't know you had a hitchhiker.

SPEAKER_00 3:02

No, it didn't, it didn't seem that way at all. It honestly didn't, but then I like I said, I'd come home from work one day and it looked like somebody had been laying on top of my bed. And I was like, uh, what is this?

SPEAKER_01 3:16

Yeah, you're like, hey, is some hobo coming in our apartment while we're at work? Does somebody have a key to the apartment I don't know about? Maybe one of the maintenance workers took a nap on your bed.

SPEAKER_00 3:25

Oh, maybe. Maybe they were like, This seems like a nice fancy bed. This one's just right. Just right. No bears, just you know, a maintenance worker. But you know, not thinking a lot about it. And then came home one other day, and the dish soap that was under the sink had been taken out and was on top of the washing machine in the like the room just right off the kitchen. And that's what that's where it seemed weird. And then at the same time, it seemed like all the activity at my brother's house had stopped. So there was like the laughing joke that we what when we moved out of their house into our apartment, whatever it was attached itself to us. Like it was like, hey, these people are super cool. Yeah, I'm gonna go with them. It wasn't, I wasn't scared. I didn't have any weird feelings.

SPEAKER_01 4:16

I would have been more scared thinking that somebody broke into my house and took a nap, but then the dish soap is odd. Going from under your sink with a door, right? A cupboard door, and then being moved onto the washer. And you don't remember moving it.

SPEAKER_00 4:32

No, I uh no, because the dishes had been done the night before, you know, and then you get up and you go to work. My mom went to work, I went to work. And you have a routine. Once I'm done, the soap goes here, yeah, goes right under the cupboard, and came home. And I'd gone into the laundry room, I can't remember what I went in there for, and then I said to my mom, hey, did you get the dish soap out? And she's like, No, there's no dishes to be done. And then I look, and there were, there were no dishes to be done. So, how it went from underneath the sink from the night before.

SPEAKER_01 5:06

So you don't think whoever came and took a nap was like, Oh, I I spilled on my shirt, I'm gonna take this soap out.

SPEAKER_00 5:12

And perhaps they were coming in during the day and doing their dishes and drying them and forgot to put the dish up there.

SPEAKER_01 5:20

Right. No, I think that's I think it's odd that it would move from there and it's like, hey, notice me. I moved this. Right.

SPEAKER_00 5:27

I and that's a good I think that's a good point. I think it was more like, I'm here. This is your routine. I know you will notice if this is out of place. If something is out of place, because you didn't give much too much concern with like the bed being messed up.

SPEAKER_01 5:42

Yeah, you're not paying attention to me.

SPEAKER_00 5:43

I need to do something else. Let me move this, something physical, let me move it to where you're gonna be like, hey, what's going on here?

SPEAKER_01 5:52

But it wasn't a bad feeling. No, it wasn't at all. Was it did it feel more like a prank, or did it feel like, hey, notice me, or did it feel I mean, what?

SPEAKER_00 6:04

I I felt like it was a jokester if I'm being honest. It didn't feel scary. I didn't have a feeling of it being anyone. It just um felt like, hey, I'm here.

SPEAKER_01 6:16

Do you notice me now? When you were at your brother's house, how was that energy? How did it feel to you? Did it feel good? Did it feel bad? Did it feel prankster?

SPEAKER_00 6:26

If it felt like a poltergeist, like a prankster to me, because it it never well, my mom had a different viewpoint of it, but um it it just to me it was somebody like, hey, you're trying to sleep, think again, you're not gonna sleep tonight, or you know, we ate dinner at the table as a family, and the TV would just like Was it kind of like you're too busy to notice me here?

SPEAKER_01 6:52

I'm gonna wait till the quiet moments, or was it all the time?

SPEAKER_00 6:56

I think it was just for me, it was all the time. It was more like um, hey, you think that's I shouldn't keep saying hey, but it was more like um you can't have normal time without knowing that I'm around. You know, it's like even my niece will tell you about she remembers it feeling like the cat jumping up on the bed. And then you'd go to pet the cat, and there was no cat there. It was almost like a I don't know, I I I don't mean to say it this way, but it felt like maybe it was like a little kid that was like, he, you know, like that kind of energy.

SPEAKER_01 7:33

Yeah, like that kind of energy like mischievous, not necessarily bad or evil, just naughty. Yeah, like a little, yeah, like a little kid that's trying to get mom and dad's attention and then because side note, I don't believe in little kid ghosts. Oh, but we can come back and visit that on a at another time.

SPEAKER_00 7:51

Well, I have to, yeah, because I do believe it.

SPEAKER_01 7:53

I think that it's more like evil stuff messing with you, trying to trick you, and oh, I'm a little kid ghost. Well, no, you're not. I think you're a grown-up jerk. But yeah, you know what I think? But one question I had was so you feel like it's kind of a prankster at Joel's, and then you come back and or I'm sorry, you move to the new apartment and it's the same energy, right? Not very much, but here and there you're you're sensing it.

SPEAKER_00 8:25

Oh, not near as much as my brother's when we were at his house. Like it seemed like it was a lot more there, you know, like the turning on of the TV when nobody's in the room, or um the fire alarm going off all night long, nothing there, um, feeling like somebody's on your bed or an animal when they're not there.

SPEAKER_01 8:44

So that kind of leads me to this question of why do you think that door was opened? And where I'm going with this is you've told me when you moved from 11B to 11A, you started having more experiences and the activity ramped up and the energy felt different. Oh, it was totally different, and and not different in a good way, no, but in a bad way. And so I I was curious if you opened that door, and all of a sudden it's like, okay, it it was fun and cute at first, but now I'm going to show you what I'm really made of.

SPEAKER_00 9:24

It could be, but it just felt like when we um moved over to the three-bedroom unit, it it was different. Like it was definitely a different feeling, and the things that were happening didn't so much seem as friendly and fun all the time. Whereas I think in my past experiences, it didn't seem harmful or it didn't seem, you know, like it was more of like a kid game or something like that. Whereas the energy moving into 11B was like totally different. It was like cold, um, non-friendly. Uh, my my back bedroom, you know, the room talking about, I always felt like even just walking past that back bedroom, there was like just this energy, like this not good energy.

SPEAKER_01 10:13

And and for me, as someone who didn't live there, I would say walking in, your front room felt good. The dining room felt good, even though you had stuff happen in the dining room, the kitchen felt good. Um, the laundry room was hit or miss for me. The back bedroom scared me. Your the two bathrooms felt okay. And sorry, I'm giving a room-by-room assessment here, but but I will say your bedrooms, the the two bedrooms, your mom's and yours, felt safe, but the closets in your bedroom scared me to death. And I don't know why. If your closet door was open, I felt so uneasy. And like you go, so you had the master, and you would go in the bathroom, and you're like, I can't get in the bathroom fast enough to shut the door. Because once I shut the door, I know that's silly, but I felt safe. Once I opened that and I was in your bedroom, and that closet was there, I felt really uneasy, and I had to get out of there as fast as I could. And so, and then the back bedroom, I never wanted to go in there.

SPEAKER_00 11:18

Yeah, see, the back the back bedroom for me was the one that I feel like where whatever this was, I feel like is kind of where it hung out. Because like the the the the Broncos helmet coming completely off of the shelf and just sitting there on the floor at the same time every morning, you know? How does how does that happen?

SPEAKER_01 11:42

And I think some of this stuff you can explain away, you know, and and I think that a lot of times there are logical explanations for why things happen. But like some of the things we talked about in the last episode, like um the door opening, I watched the door handle open and the door swing open and your cat walk out. There's nobody in there, right? Of that back room. I watched, yeah, of the back room. I watched the the entertainment center door fly off four feet into the middle of the room. That's not you can't explain that with gravity or science.

SPEAKER_00 12:19

No, and it's like it it was like when you say fly off, it was like someone picked it up, pulled it out, yeah, and then it just gently went to the ground.

SPEAKER_01 12:30

There's no way your mom seeing a guy at the kitchen table. That really upset me.

SPEAKER_00 12:34

You can't explain that away. No, or you know, the day I had fallen asleep before I went to pick her up from work, and I woke up, but I woke up um it's hard to explain, like my shoulders just clenched, my neck clenched, and I woke up like someone was in the house. Like it scared me so bad. And I was just laying there on the couch, and this is during the day, and I was just laying there and I physically felt it above me, and then I heard it. That's what's weird. I heard it turn and just walk down the hall. I jumped up, grabbed my purse and my keys, and I got out of there. Because when you know, when I heard it walking down the hall, I lifted my head up like and turned it a little bit. There was nothing there. I could see nothing. So it's not like there was a person there that did get. Did you like pretend to be asleep as it was like breathing over you? No, I was so scared. Like, you know, when people say they were scared to death, yeah, like they couldn't move. That's how I felt because it woke me up that you felt paralyzed. At first, I thought it was a dream, like I was dreaming, but then it it was a reality that I was not dreaming, and whatever. I think my my own mind woke me up, and that's why I woke up so like my shoulders and my neck just so clenched is the only word I can think of. But then to hear it and then hear it turn on the carpet, that's what was weird, and then just these steps down the hall.

SPEAKER_01 14:13

And I've had that happen in my own house. I've been laying in my bedroom in you know, by myself in my bed, the house is quiet, it's early morning, and I hear footsteps padding down the hall on the carpet. And it's not your imagination, it's it's not something you're like, oh, I hear a truck outside, or oh, the there's a train going by and it's shaking the house. No, it's it's measured footsteps walking down the hall and then turning around and walking back. I've had the same experience.

SPEAKER_00 14:43

You can it's not even so much that you can hear it, but you can feel it. That's what is so kind of crazy to me, but then also so I I have so many questions. What is it that makes us know that we can we can feel it? Yeah, six. Yeah, like the six, yeah. It our mind is a huge part of I feel like what kind of opens our our senses or our mind to know that it's there or believe in it. Because I know um some people don't, but there's something there letting you know that it it is real.

SPEAKER_01 15:22

So yeah, I think so. I I think that just as humans, we we have that sense built in. It's like if if you're sitting there and a and a and a live person walks in, you can feel it. If you're sitting somewhere and you feel somebody's eyes on you and you look over and somebody's looking at you, you can feel that. Oh, 100%. So whether that person is visible or not visible, you you feel it either way.

SPEAKER_00 15:46

Yeah. And you know, just to go back a little bit here, where you talked about my closet, um, in my mind now, my mind's kind of going crazy because I remember when I would have really bad migraines, I would go and lay in my closet with pillows and a blanket because it was so dark in there for one. But now, like my mind is like, hmm, because it was always so cold in that closet. It was like cold and it just helped my migraines. Like the the coldness being inside that closet with the door shut and the lights out.

SPEAKER_01 16:22

Always there's no way in heck. Always helped my migraine. I might have gone in there.

SPEAKER_00 16:25

Yeah, you're braver than I am. Well, it helped them. It was like, um But that there's a reason why it was cold. I get it now. See now you do have excuse me, you do have me wondering. Um, maybe they were massaging my head while I was laying in there and I was because you know, I would always fall asleep, which helped. But now I'm wondering, was I getting a free head massage at the same time too? Like on the temples, maybe they were like, Oh, you know, and I'm like, no, they're like, Yeah, they were probably like, um, no, you do not like football anymore. And my brain was like, yes, I do.

SPEAKER_01 17:09

Well, and another thing in in your apartment that you could possibly explain away with something logical or science-y is your printer was always going off.

SPEAKER_00 17:19

Yes, and yeah, I had the printer in the bedroom, that's right. And it would, it would just go out and just start printing out.

SPEAKER_01 17:24

But it was always in the middle of the night.

SPEAKER_00 17:26

Right, in the middle of the night. But it would print the weirdest things, oh, too. Sometimes it wouldn't print nothing, but then other times there were just um like like squiggly things that was weird. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 17:37

I definitely And that is like, okay, is that a a technological malfunction or was that energy doing that? Right. I don't know. See?

SPEAKER_00 17:46

And you know, and still to this day, I always wake up around 3 a.m. But I think that was the same time too when a lot of the stuff would happen in the night in the apartment. It was always like 11 something or three something.

SPEAKER_01 18:03

So or your mom would wake up in the middle of the night too when she was sick.

SPEAKER_00 18:06

Yeah, when I was taking care of my mom, the hardest time with my mom was from 3 to 5 a.m. every day. You could she could be in the deepest sleep and bam, no lie, 3 a.m. The you know, the the crying and the um Sunday, yeah, having to hold her hand because she was so scared, you know, and I I mean I would fall asleep sometimes sitting on the floor holding her hand or massaging her leg, and then she'd be like, hey, hey, you know, but there is something in my life about the three o'clock hour that is just and I've heard I've heard both ways.

SPEAKER_01 18:46

I've heard that a lot of people have um paranormal experiences at two or three in the morning, and then I've also read studies that say if you have high stress or high cortisol, that you automatically your brain will wake you up at three in the morning. So it could be it could be both, it could be one or the other. Um, like I said, some of these things I think.

SPEAKER_00 19:09

Maybe I just need a donut at 3 a.m.

SPEAKER_01 19:11

You could. I think some of these things can be explained by science and logic, and some of them I think are just flat out supernatural.

SPEAKER_00 19:21

Yeah, I do. I I agree. I think something, of course, you always want to be able to debunk something if if there isn't an explanation for it. But then there's the other stuff that I totally believe with you that are the supernatural, and um, it's their way of communicating.

SPEAKER_01 19:37

And it's funny because I absolutely loved hanging out at your apartment. It was so much fun, and we have so many good times there, but at the same time, I did not like being there alone. And I remember one time you and your mom were like, We're going to Vegas. Can you feed the cat and water the plants? And I'm like, Okay. Why did you ask me? I guess. And um, so me being the brave person I am, I took my five-year-old daughter over with me, and I'm like, hey, let's go over and and feed the cat. And I used my child as a shield because I'm awesome like that. You're such a good mom. You're a good mom. But she's, you know, she's like, hey, this is great. She didn't know. And I'm like, don't go in that back room. You're like, whatever you do. And then not only that, but we're in there, and then all of a sudden I hear, or that stupid alarm clock went off. Your mom's alarm clock. I think the power must have gone out. Because I think the clock was blinking, and you know how when when you unplug a clock and then a weird time will set and the alarm must have been set. And I was in there, and no joke, it went off. And I'm like, it's a ghost. You're like poor brain.

SPEAKER_02 20:52

We're out of here.

SPEAKER_01 20:54

That one I think was just a uh Did my cat get fed that day? I don't know if if if uh Brain fed her, she did. Like, I was out of the bottom. I don't know. There was like a a me-shaped hole in the door. So I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 21:11

I wondered what happened when I came home and maintenance was putting a new door on and the cat was holding up a sign. Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 21:17

Feed me.

SPEAKER_00 21:18

Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 21:19

No, yeah. I did not like being there alone.

SPEAKER_00 21:21

And so which is weird because when you guys would come or when you would come over, or like our Bonko nights, or you know, um, I think weird things would happen. Flo and I were just like, yeah, so we're kind of used to it. Yeah, you guys are all like, I'm out of here.

SPEAKER_01 21:39

What's happening? But it was just par for the course. It was you guys were used to it. It was just another day at your residence. Uh, you know, casa ghostsville.

SPEAKER_00 21:52

Good one. Yeah. Casa coming coming out.

SPEAKER_01 21:58

But I I can't. I can't think of anything else off the top of my head right now. I just know that it was always an adventure at the apartment.

SPEAKER_00 22:05

But it was, you know, it's just it's weird. I feel like whatever or whoever it is. Because I think I've told you before, sometimes I feel like and I think you feel the same. You can sense who it is or like male or fee, or you know, just something.

SPEAKER_01 22:22

Um but I never could get a handle on who it was at your house. I felt like it was male. Did you feel like it was male?

SPEAKER_00 22:30

Well, definitely male.

SPEAKER_01 22:31

Definitely. And I don't know that it was necessarily somebody that you knew. I know that you entertained the thought for a little while that maybe it was your brother-in-law. Well, your mom didn't know. My mom did it. I did, yeah, I did. But I never got that feeling that it was somebody that you knew or even a real person. Right. To tell you the truth.

SPEAKER_00 22:50

Things were happening before he passed away. So that I I always knew it wasn't him. Yeah. So, but I know I think maybe that gave my mom some comfort somehow. Maybe. I don't know. But yeah, I I never thought it was him. I mean, I you know, not to jump ships here, but whenever I would go to our family and cabin after my grandpa died, like you could smell him in there. So I knew things that had happened there. Your brother-in-law or your grandpa? My grandpa. Okay. So because you could like it was the weirdest thing. You'd walk in the cabin and you could just smell him. So I knew it was my grandpa. Like I knew it, like without question.

SPEAKER_01 23:28

And you don't think it was residual? You think it was like a fresh smell?

SPEAKER_00 23:33

Yeah, it was like he'd been there. Like, you know, because we would go every weekend, so there was nobody there during the week. But when we would leave, it would smell like the cooking we did there or the fires we you know, it was it was weird, but you'd go there on a Friday and you'd open that door and you just you could smell my grandpa. So I I do, I think he was always there. So but that gave me comfort knowing right that it was him, you know. I know he was there.

SPEAKER_01 24:00

So well, and we had I mean, we've had so many more experiences, even even out of the apartment. I was gonna um change gears a little bit and talk about our one of our many trips to Vegas because my gosh, how many times have we gone down to Vegas? I can't even count.

SPEAKER_00 24:18

I don't know, but every time it's been absolute best.

SPEAKER_01 24:22

It's it's been a good time, but I will say one one trip in particular. I can't say I had another ghosty experience other than this one, right?

SPEAKER_00 24:33

Mm-hmm.

SPEAKER_01 24:34

Have you In Vegas? Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:36

No, I don't know.

SPEAKER_01 24:37

Okay, so five of us, including me and Tina and Tina's mom and our friend Aaron and my sister, Paula, uh, we all went down to spend the weekend in Vegas. I think what, like four days?

SPEAKER_00 24:51

Yeah, I think so.

SPEAKER_01 24:52

And so we got a room at the Luxor. Well, we actually got two rooms and we got suites, and I was really excited because they were nice suites, and they had um uh, you know, a living room and a fireplace, and then the bedroom and a jacuzzi, and then two nice big bathrooms, and we got adjoining suites, and so it was you know double, double the trouble, double the trouble, double the double the square footage, and um I was so excited, and so we had three beds, two queens, and then a king, and then of course the couches that and so your mom was like, I'm just gonna sleep on the couch, and then my sister and I took the room with the king bed, and we were gonna share that, and then you and Erin each got your own queen bed. Correct, and I don't know why I feel that's important, but it is it is important, you need to know this. Yes, and I I should put the picture of uh Chester on here. I don't know about that anyway. Um, so we had this awesome picture of Tina getting uh groped by a ghost, but anyway, okay, it was me. But scared me to death. Anyway, so we we walk in, I I digress. We walk in, I was the first one in this room. We get into the room and and we walk in through Tina and Erin's room, and then my room is the adjoining room. So I go in there and they're still out in the hall, and I had run in it and unlocked it, and I got into ours, and I walked into the living room of ours, and I was by the fireplace. I am the only one in this room, they're still all out in the hall, all four of them, and I hear in my ear, ha ha ha, and this woman laughed in my ear. And I was like, what? And I turned around because I thought someone was in with me, and there was nobody in the room, it was me, and and a a woman's laugh in my ear. And I was like, Okay, right. So I go in and and I'm like, you guys, you're not gonna believe this. And and I think people were just like, okay, whatever, you know, they didn't think anything of it, and so we all get set up, and um I think we go to dinner and you know, just go about having our veggie fun. And I can't remember if it was that night or the next night, we all were watching a movie in your side of the room, uh, in the living room, and there's the five of us in there sitting on the couches, and so the TV where we're all facing, you know, you can see the bedroom behind the TV. And we're watching, we're watching the Goonies. I remember. I didn't want to say that, but yes. We're watching the Goonies because everybody's like, you gotta watch the Goonies. Because Goonies never died. The best movie ever. I'm like, alright, so we're watching the Goonies. I'm sitting there on the couch, and I watch this man walk by in front of your bed and then towards the other bed and then towards the hot tub. And the goosebumps. I'm everybody else is watching the TV, but I turn and look at your mom. Your mom looks at me, and we both said, Did you see that? And your mom's like, Yes. I said, I just watched a man walk by, and she said, Yes, I saw it too. I remember. And I'm like, Did you guys see that? And you guys are like, No, we were watching the show. And I'm like, a man just walked by in our room, and I got up and I went over and I looked. And obviously, there's nobody there, right? But the fact that that your mom and I both saw that at the same time and looked at each other, and then the laugh, there was something in that room.

SPEAKER_00 28:46

Right, well, even the look on my mom's face, yeah, like said it all. Like I knew that you guys had and even the look on your face too. Like the two of you were just like, what just happened?

SPEAKER_01 28:57

It scared me. I didn't want to sleep in that room.

SPEAKER_00 28:59

And so then that didn't I sleep with the light on?

SPEAKER_01 29:02

The bathroom lights? I mean, you guys might have. All I know is that I made my sister come go to bed with me. I'm like, hey, guess what? It's time for bed. I'm not going in there alone. Yeah. And I'm tired, let's go. And then I we got in the bed and I'm like, get close. Yep, you're like, get those snuggle underneath. And and then I pulled the blankets over my head. I was literally that scared. And and Paula was just like, whatever. Yeah. You know, I don't I don't know. She didn't believe it. Did you sleep the whole night? Just non-plused. I don't know if I slept. I mean, how many years ago was this? My gosh. 12, 15?

SPEAKER_00 29:37

Yeah, probably 12 or 15, because it's 2026.

SPEAKER_01 29:40

It was a long time ago. Yeah, it was. But that really scared me.

SPEAKER_00 29:43

Anyway, so then I just remember you were freaked out. I do. I remember how freaked out you were. And then even for my mom to be like, there's something in here.

SPEAKER_01 29:52

Yeah, especially because she'd had so many experiences. For I mean, I don't think she was as as uh affected as I was.

SPEAKER_00 30:00

But you were like you were totally like we're getting out of here.

SPEAKER_01 30:04

Well, and then when we got home, I started looking up the Luxor, and I was shocked at how many stories I found about that place being haunted. I had no idea.

SPEAKER_00 30:13

I didn't either till you told me.

SPEAKER_01 30:15

None. And I I was really shocked. I couldn't believe it.

SPEAKER_00 30:19

I'm surprised nobody's done like a ghost.

SPEAKER_01 30:22

Maybe they maybe they have.

SPEAKER_00 30:24

Yeah. I think that would be a good place to try to do it, especially on the floor we were on, because after that it just didn't seem I think I read that the fifth floor had a lot of activity.

SPEAKER_01 30:36

But we were up high. I think we were higher. No, I think we were. But and then again, my memory these days for small details like that is not the greatest. But um, and then when we the next time, well, not the next time, but we went down what a year ago and we did the haunted museum.

SPEAKER_00 30:59

Oh, that I don't ever want to go there again.

SPEAKER_01 31:01

And that was uh I thought that was interesting. I would say only one place in that it'll be two.

SPEAKER_00 31:10

Two years ago this May.

SPEAKER_01 31:11

That's right, it was your birthday.

SPEAKER_00 31:12

Yeah, no, it was in May. Remember, we went down in May of 2024. Oh, it was warm. Yeah, because you and Erin had other stuff going on last year in 2025. That's right. And so, yeah, it's been two years.

SPEAKER_01 31:24

I was thinking it was for your birthday, but that was that wasn't it.

SPEAKER_00 31:27

Yeah, no. But yeah, I like that museum, you couldn't paint me. I know you I think is it you and Teresa that want to go through it again?

SPEAKER_01 31:36

I there was only one place that made me nervous, and that was in the basement.

SPEAKER_00 31:41

Yeah. I I will never go to that music. Like the whole I thought I was this big tough girl that was like, this is gonna be so awesome. I know the third room, I'm like I was shocked because you are a lot braver than me when it comes to this stuff. I just had horrible feeling through that whole like not the whole thing, obviously, like by the third room.

SPEAKER_01 32:00

It's funny because it didn't really the lobby kind of scared me while we were waiting to go in. The lobby gave me a creepy feeling, but then when we went in, I was like, oh, okay. And then not until they're like, you can go down in the basement, but there were sacrifices and stuff down here.

SPEAKER_00 32:16

I tried and I'm like, nope. And then even some of the rooms that you guys all went in, like I I thought, okay, I'm gonna walk in here, and I walked right back out, or I didn't go in because it just I could not wait to get out of there. I think I even went to the lobby before you guys even got up to me. Yeah, I think you made a bee line out. I just did not have a and I don't know if I psyched myself out, but I just did not have a good feeling in there whatsoever. And then I kept thinking, we're gonna go in a room and get lost, and no one's gonna ever know we were in here. Oh, really? That's how scared I was.

SPEAKER_01 32:48

The only other room that I was kind of nervous in, and I think it was more just for a historical um reason, but we went to the they had a room that had like artifacts from serial killers. I did go in there, and that room freaked me out, but I think that was more like evil people touched this stuff.

SPEAKER_00 33:07

Yeah, that's how I felt looking at the Ted Bundy stuff. Yeah, yeah. I was like, oh my gosh, I like you know how everybody said he was such a good looking man that so many people trusted him right off the bat. And then you see like the mem the memorabilia or whatever, and it's like oh, there was so much darkness in that man, like complete darkness in looking at this stuff. It just it's it's crazy to me how people can come across as such a good, nice person but be so dark and evil on the inside.

SPEAKER_01 33:39

Yeah, it's just but I will say we had stuff that wasn't ghosty happen in Vegas. Oh was it our first trip? And I think we were at the Luxor there too, but we didn't have this, it was not a haunted story. That's why I never thought this place was haunted because I've stayed at the Luxor probably four or five times. Oh no, this was one of the best stories ever. I think this was our first trip down, and we we go down and we got there what late the night before. We get our room, we go to bed. It's six o'clock in the morning. It was six thirty, and I I wake up to this noise, and I'm like, I didn't know if you were awake. I thought it was just me. I thought you were still asleep. I know, and I thought you were asleep, and I'm just going to say, for the sake of being polite, the people in the adjoining room at 6 30 in the morning were getting it on.

SPEAKER_00 34:39

And and uh and uh Barry needed some water.

SPEAKER_02 34:42

So here was Barry, very, very, and I said, Did you hear that? And she's like, Yes. And uh I was like, isn't it really happening? And she's like, uh, I think she needs she needs water. And I'm like, I don't know what she said. Oh my gosh.

SPEAKER_00 35:16

Anyway, yeah, she was like, Barry, yeah, looking, I mean, that's one of my most favorite, one of our like we have been to Vegas so many times, but that is probably my most favorite, favorite memory. And then we didn't, we had left for the day and we came back and didn't know if they were still in the room next door. So uh got on the floor and put our fingers underneath the door, and all of a sudden we hear this.

SPEAKER_02 35:43

I was like, yeah, they're in there.

SPEAKER_01 35:45

And I'm oh my gosh. Oh my gosh. I know we're not telling this story well, but I'll I will just I will just uh sum it up by saying they were in there a lot and they were doing things a lot, and uh loudly doing things did not hold back, and she was expressing exactly what she would like Barry to be doing.

SPEAKER_00 36:08

Yes, and I'm over here like water, why does he need water?

SPEAKER_02 36:13

What's going on? I'm like, I think she's saying harmony.

SPEAKER_00 36:18

It is yes, yes, yes. But you know, see, that's a good thing because in Vegas you get scary ghost stories, you go to scary museums, and then you come back to a show in the room next door to you.

SPEAKER_01 36:30

Yeah, or like when we stayed at another hotel and we found um mold and um uh a Bible that had been defiled.

SPEAKER_00 36:41

Oh, very defiled and um cigarette burns all over the floor and the the bed spread.

SPEAKER_01 36:48

And hookers in the hallway and parking lot.

SPEAKER_00 36:51

And don't forget the needles in the parking lot. That was and I had to get in that death trap of an elevator, which I'm like, well, we're dying at the hooker eight, so we're good to go.

SPEAKER_01 37:04

But I think probably we'll uh wrap up on that one and then we'll come back with some more stories because we have so many more ghost stories, but it's yeah, Vegas is full of it's kind of cathartic in a way, if that's the word, talking about all these stories that we have. I think so. And I I want to I want to record them so that we can remember. Yes. Because we just have to get old. Yeah, and we have so many memories that I don't want to forget. Yeah, they were good times. So on that note, we will wrap up and um see you next time. Thank you.
