A. Tender for listeners. I'm Liam

0:33

Watson. Host of status on. A

0:37

new podcast brought to you from the

0:39

team behind Up Vanished. It follows my

0:41

investigation into the disappearance of Justin Alexander,

0:43

a survivalist and world traveller whose life

0:45

seemed like it was torn from the

0:48

pages of an adventure novel. While

0:50

some of Justin's friends and family believe

0:53

he may have been murdered, it's not

0:55

clear what actually happened. And

0:58

a message she left behind just

1:00

days before he vanished makes everything

1:02

about his disappearance just strange. Check.

1:05

Out this clip. Featuring. One of

1:07

Justin's friends, and their recollection of their

1:10

final conversation with him. It

1:12

was one thing that kind of made

1:15

me feel weird about whenever he talk

1:17

about his plans for India. And the

1:19

more I thought about it, especially over

1:21

the years. It

1:23

almost seemed like he was

1:26

preparing. For something because he

1:28

wanted to be famous. He may bad

1:30

openly clear like that was his angle. When

1:34

you hear the message Justin left behind,

when you hear about the remote dangerous

1:38

area where he went missing, When you

1:40

3:27

that introduction to live up to it,

3:29

I really did this label you immediately

3:31

assessing a better be Pretty fun when

3:34

try so hard now. Yeah, Well

3:36

we're having find it took us thirty minutes actually get

3:39

to the point to record because we had so many

3:41

technical difficulties so. Oh no, I think

3:43

we're in a good start. Okay for

3:45

them. Sorry. That every

3:47

for you join the you know or let's

3:49

see how does. Anyway, I'm one hundred percent

3:52

sure that this is haunted me as Riverside

3:54

as Hundred and I have used Riverside before

3:56

3:58

do think. It's the ghost the. Go think

4:00

Yeah. Yeah. Okay, so. Joanna.

4:03

Are. A Tell us a little bit about yourself. And.

4:06

Who you are and why is here?

4:08

Well, I'm. A big big tender

4:10

foot fan. I'm a fan of this podcast. I.

4:12

A fan of radio rental. I'm a

4:15

fan of horror. And I.

4:17

You. Know I'm a comedian. I'm that a. Writer:

4:20

I very much love. For.

4:24

I love You know the it's like

4:26

the semblance of the panic attack I

4:28

feel when I hear a scary story.

4:30

Because I'm in, I'm in a anxious person

4:32

and I almost feel like we're is an

4:34

escape of that anxiety. I feel the same

4:37

anxiety but where I mean that isn't. Internal.

4:39

Isn't mine? God, you sound just

4:41

like April. Yeah, that's a press

4:44

release. I say this to Meredith.

4:46

all that my mind is a

4:48

terrifying place. It's horrible to be

4:50

in here. So I love watching

4:52

horror movies because it takes me

4:54

out of my head. Yes, you

4:56

know it's It's infinitely more fun

4:59

than stealing in my internal turmoil.

5:01

Yes, have a if I feel

5:03

the same way about. For me,

5:05

it's horror and true crime or

5:07

sort of my relaxation. My

5:10

relaxation content is that? yeah? Because it's

5:12

just it's the stakes are so high

5:15

anxiety so high that it's it. Jolts

5:17

be out of myself Yes and

5:19

isn't healthy? Know my therapist said it's

5:21

not been. I don't care. They're wrong.

5:24

So even though I love horror and

5:26

I love the supernatural. I

5:28

have always been like an atheist. And

5:31

very light anti bullying

5:34

these stories but. I

5:36

you know I did have an experience. In

5:39

Twenty sixteen, that sort of changed a lot of things

5:41

for me, and I. Wrote wrote to

5:43

defend her foot been like

5:45

i'm a fan of Mississippi.

5:47

Can I please tell you guys this

5:49

story I I Even if you don't

5:51

put it on anything, I just feel

5:54

like someone needs to read it because

5:56

it's crazy and then now here we

5:58

are. You know to yeah I'm so

6:00

interested in this because you're speaking my

6:02

way good, you're near like a little

6:04

atheistic and you're skeptical. I think that's

6:06

where I am a lot and I'm

6:08

like constantly looking for someone to change

6:10

my mind like tell me the experience

6:12

that will change my mind about guess

6:15

So here you're to task still on

6:17

the side and change married his mind

6:19

about ghosts. I'm not asking for much

6:21

you know I ah the task is

6:23

at hand. I'm going to try very

6:25

hard as I have a fear of

6:27

failure so if I don't do those

6:29

things this. Podcast Will Hunt is estimated

6:31

that although April's biggest fear yeah, I can,

6:33

we do me in broader the same person

6:35

I don't know, I'm just throwing it out there.

6:38

I think that's a solid beer. It's

6:41

interesting because I grew up April and now

6:43

I'm curious to see bigger of the same

6:45

way because we are the same person I

6:47

grew up with like my dad, studied physics

6:49

and will when I was six years old

6:51

when my grandpa died I was a puppy

6:53

what happens after you die and he was

6:55

like nothing. You. Be some dirt. Trauma

6:58

that's like trauma for me. I'll never forget

7:01

that moment l know as it core memory.

7:03

And then my mom is been of and as

7:05

well might as well as on his mobile. My

7:07

mom is Venezuela but almost like more stereotypical that

7:09

is on the sense that she. Sort. Of

7:11

like leans more into. The magical realism

7:14

and spirituality. I think that sort of

7:16

like very much embedded in a lot

7:18

of Latin culture like we have all

7:20

these a creepy story is like let

7:22

your own eyes he long as like

7:24

folk tales that sort of everyone knows

7:26

and believes for some reason and they're

7:28

just all stories to make kids. Behave.

7:31

Yeah so I grew up with like

7:33

this duality of. Life. Is

7:36

just. British short and you'll

7:38

die and become dirt isn't. But

7:40

then also there's the streets around and

7:42

you never really fully know what's going

7:44

on here and I told that line.

7:47

Totally. Toad told that line

7:49

sound here for years. That's

7:51

really interesting because. So. You

7:53

had both sides. I had

7:55

only religion. Oh, but it was

7:58

less magical realism and more. You.

8:00

Know kind a devout Christianity and

8:02

it's so interesting to me and

8:04

I feel like there's such a

8:06

disconnect or like a contradiction growing

8:08

up in Christianity. But also

8:11

denying the supernatural and spiritual world

8:13

kind of love being a part

8:15

of the everyday life type of

8:17

thing. Unless it's Jesus, angels are

8:19

demons. There's no whimsical fairies know.

8:22

Oh yeah, they I feel in fairies. It's.

8:24

Sort of. It's very strict vision of spirituality

8:26

and the supernatural where there's no room for

8:28

an afterlife outside of heaven and hell. So

8:30

it's like why would they appear to you

8:33

on earth and like this doesn't make sense

8:35

to me. If this is true, why can't

8:37

thought feature. It's like this magical fairy land.

8:39

Israel the other one is not okay. That

8:42

was. Stupid less it's

8:44

I'd say. I do feel

8:46

that like. You know I'm I'm Jewish, but.

8:48

I. Grew up in a country. That's like ninety nine

8:51

percent Catholic. Yeah the catholicism in Latin America

8:53

as very interesting because I do think they

8:55

get more creative than like I think be

8:57

more religious people I found here and the

9:00

stay there is a different brands yeah like

9:02

in in Venezuela there's all these scenes and

9:04

like it's like oh there's the scene of

9:06

the guy that was crucified next a Jesus

9:09

and then like if you lose something you

9:11

like light a candle for hims or yeah

9:13

oh ah it's raining outside. you better put

9:15

a nice out because the nice touch the

9:18

rain. Well there was less strict. Rules

9:20

on know what was and

9:22

wasn't. Okay, He only

9:24

there's this. Mysticism within the religiousness

9:26

the I find like fascinating like I

9:29

went to camp in Venezuela in love

9:31

with ya Nos which is sorta like

9:33

the planes of in history last. And.

9:36

Every one that was at the chimp was

9:38

like me and you and everyone there was

9:40

like oh yeah there is a woman out

9:42

there, she's a spirit and if we leave

9:45

camp like if with a tense after ten

9:47

like she could take us and dramas and

9:49

a reverse layer on our a vagina and

9:51

unlike businesses we I was like fourteen to

9:53

as it is this we all like hold

9:55

up questions and they're like I'm like eighty

9:57

percent Sharia sick by Mary's I was like.

10:00

You were I would be like I don't

10:02

I don't know Man, this can't be Is There

10:04

has to be logical explanations for why we

10:06

hear this woman's crying at night Like it's because

10:08

of the wind. It's because of the animals.

10:10

As as is always a logical explanation that humans

10:12

have like a tribute to something else too.

10:15

So I feel like I am your love.

10:17

Child marriages at April is what I'm saying.

10:19

Superfan I'm so glad to be or he

10:21

felt that from your email Feels right like

10:24

I love listening to you talk about these

10:26

things because it's so or Later ball and

10:28

I feel like I am. Both.

10:30

A skeptic. Like you said, you were. And

10:33

a scaredy cat which is why this isn't

10:35

Space is so fascinates me because I'm not

10:37

like a brave skeptic. I. Have not

10:39

like. A new into it may afraid

10:41

of it but it isn't real. but I'm

10:43

scared as a bulldozer. got a hard time

10:46

watching horror movies but I like fascinated by

10:48

them and I think about them and I've

10:50

even like written horror fan like and either

10:52

like control it you know it feels like

10:54

you. you don't fully believe it and you

10:56

kind of wanted to be true but you're

10:58

too scared for it to be yeah. Room:

11:00

You don't wanna live in a world where

11:02

that exists. Yeah, exactly yeah yeah. and it's

11:05

interesting you like. This is how we talked

11:07

about spirits in how the word ghosts was

11:09

never uttered in my house. My parents

11:11

are like medical people. The scary thing that

11:13

we talked about at the dinner table was

11:15

like. Chronic. Diseases you could die

11:18

from simply not mine. And you know,

11:20

like, wouldn't you rather be talking about

11:22

a potential ghost in the library to

11:24

me like that I like better than

11:26

a chronic disease. Yes, it's so funny.

11:28

it's it's ultra grounded horror. The things

11:30

my parents. Told me to fear were also

11:33

grounded, right? Yeah, That's. What I

11:35

don't like, who are doing is more

11:37

anxiety. It's more anxiety. It on that

11:39

note I think she die. Then let's

11:41

see begin. You know. Fuel April. Love.

11:43

Of this and I'd be changed my mind. Let's escape.

11:45

Okay, I would love that. Again, not a

11:48

big ass and no no really I just

11:50

misses his way your life long held opinion

11:52

while being fun. Yeah, so am I to

11:54

do it guys. I should do this. We

11:56

believe in you. My.

12:09

Story begins in twenty

12:11

sixteen. Twenty

12:13

sixteen, I had just started my career

12:15

as a comedian, I wasn't like kill

13:09

a lot of a new buildings. And

13:11

developments exists buildings felt.

13:14

Old. As I was

13:16

driving of the driveway I was like like like

13:18

I'm going back in time to when this. Hotel

13:20

just opened. I

13:23

get out. I I go into the

13:25

lobby and. The lobby is

13:27

beautiful. It's a gorgeous There's. Plants it

13:29

has like this: terracotta tile, To

13:32

be fully transparent, I did it. Love

13:34

the feeling when I went in. But

13:37

I was like only God join. Like literally, You're saying

13:39

that like such a nice hotel, it's shut up and

13:42

just check in. So I checked and I get my

13:44

key. I go to the think it was the

13:46

fifth floor. And

13:48

walking down the whole the my

13:50

room and cluster on the walls

13:52

are these black and white pictures

13:54

of what I'm assuming our photos

13:56

of guests from the past. And

13:58

as I'm walking. Them down. I'm like all these

14:01

people are dead. And I go into my

14:03

room as. And it's

14:05

a really nice sweet. It's got

14:07

dislike little living room, sitting area

14:09

and then the bedroom separate. The

14:12

view has all palm trees.

14:14

Really gorgeous. But they're

14:16

sending about the room was

14:19

that I don't like. I

14:21

just don't like being and it. You.

14:24

Know I was like early twenties living in

14:26

a horrible apartment in New York. This is

14:28

the nicest. Remade been in and make

14:30

years. And. I just didn't.

14:33

Feel. Good in it. And

14:35

I started getting this. Pressure. In

14:37

my chest. And. I

14:40

was like oh, I'm I'm allergic. I'm

14:42

like an allergic jew of course. This is

14:44

allergies. This might be my asthma flaring up. When

14:47

I just so happen to have my inhaler with

14:49

me, so I just like took a few puffs

14:51

of inhaler. If you wanna incorporate some audio of

14:53

an inhaler sound, hear. That would really

14:56

help the ambience. I

14:58

was like you know I I'm just going to go to

15:00

the gym. I'm feeling a little anxious. Somebody to the gym

15:02

and run this off with whatever. This is off.

15:07

Go to the gym and a gym. Looks very different than

15:09

the rest of the hotel. The gym is in a basement.

15:11

The. Ceilings are low and it kinda looks. Out

15:14

of place, a little bit. But.

15:17

You know, I don't care. I'm just getting on a treadmill.

15:19

Who cares? So. I get on

15:21

the treadmill and like running for a few minutes

15:23

and then all of a sudden they looked down

15:26

and I see that night neck. My

15:28

chest in my arms are all. Like

15:30

read. And

15:32

I have this inflamed of red rocks

15:34

all over the right side of my

15:37

body. And

15:39

other tablets? The hell is going on

15:41

here. So. I

15:43

the like you know at this is. My

15:45

cue. I shouldn't be work and out.

15:47

I also have a really early call time. They're

15:49

picking me up at five am. I should just

15:52

go to bed. I should just go to that

15:54

I don't need. We were going out today so

15:56

I go upstairs. I

15:58

take a Benadryl. I

16:01

get him bad. I watch some tv. And

16:04

then I'm like, right. Time to go to buy

16:06

some. I'm actually. Couple

16:09

hours later, I'm like in deep

16:11

sleep. And all of a

16:13

sudden. I am awakened.

16:16

By of willie allowed.

16:22

To swerve. Reminders: Twenty sixteen and

16:24

I awake by. A

16:26

Donald Trump Campaign commercial. Know.

16:29

That what the hell is going on?

16:31

The Tv is on at the max

16:33

volume and I'm like that. so we're

16:35

science or not. the T V maybe?

16:37

I left the Tv on and then

16:39

rolled over and the volume monopoly American

16:41

will be with. So I turn up

16:44

the Tv and I put. The. Remote

16:46

on a night table. A

16:48

lot of pain. And

16:50

I don't know how much later on us it

16:52

was minutes or hours. I wake

16:54

up again. And the

16:57

Tv is on again. At. The

16:59

max volume. And the Senate

17:01

such moderate to severe black psoriasis. You

17:03

know when I'm is this going on

17:05

here I looked at the remote on

17:07

the nightstand. I'm like okay, you know

17:09

what to turn it off and maybe

17:11

unplug it. So I.

17:13

Go! I unplug the to be a go

17:16

back to Bess. And I'm in bed and

17:18

all of a sudden I hear. A

17:21

male and female voice. From the adjoining

17:23

like little sitting area not the

17:25

bedroom. And I'm

17:27

hearing these. Voices.

17:29

Back. And forth like I used i don't'

17:32

I. Grew Up votes.

17:36

And I always think about this moment

17:38

very clearly because it was a realization

17:40

I had. I go through life, not.

17:42

Sitting about my heartbeat. But.

17:44

Then in that moment, All

17:46

I to here is my for. Making

17:49

itself, So

17:53

now. Watch

17:56

put. Together. An explanation for

17:58

what is happening. So

18:01

I walk into the little adjoining

18:03

room. And

18:05

that Tv as are. There

18:09

was another Tv in the living room that had.

18:11

Somehow turned on and it was on.

18:13

like willingly. something. I don't know. So

18:16

I turn on all the lights. And

18:18

I'm like or a it's it's three am. I might as

18:20

well get ready, they're picking me up and two hours I

18:23

don't want to falsely began like I'm not doing this. I

18:26

disconnect that Tv. And like

18:28

I'm just going to take a really quick shower. Now

18:31

the bathroom was like this: Very. Long

18:33

bathroom where the

18:36

shower. Was on one age and.

18:38

Then you had the mirror on the other end. I

18:41

left the door open. I

18:43

was just a to shower How you shower and can

18:46

like. Really fast enough. And

18:49

I mean that point in the shower.

18:51

What? You have to close your eyes

18:53

because you have Shampoo Senior Air. And

18:56

all of a sudden I hear this like weird. Sound and

18:58

it's like this. And

19:05

I look. And the hair dryer, which

19:07

is one of these hairdryers that stuff

19:10

on a wall is. Turning on

19:12

and off it almost sounds like someone

19:14

is pressing the button on our. On

19:16

and off. On and off. On and off. And

19:19

at that point I'm like I'm out. I'm

19:21

not doing this. Shampoo and my hair.

19:23

I trip over a first the towel I

19:25

like, get dressed as fast as I can

19:28

and I just. Rushed to

19:30

the lobby. I just

19:32

I. Need to Focus is my first commercial.

19:34

I'd slept like maybe an hour and a

19:36

half. So I sit in the

19:38

lobby for like an hour or whatever waiting for this.

19:40

Driver to come pick me up. And.

19:43

Then he arrives. So.

19:45

I get into the back of the car and the drivers

19:47

looking at me through the rearview mirror. And

19:49

his again. it's how was your night. How was it.

19:52

Was like. I

19:55

don't know this guy. I don't want a mythic. I'm

19:57

crazy. I just like very.

20:00

That li i was like yeah you know I i

20:02

didn't sleep that well as and the night and i

20:04

was going to sound a little crazy but. Someone

20:07

in my room. And

20:09

he's like. Know. That makes

20:11

sense. So. They wait, what do you mean

20:13

and is like. This. Is the most

20:15

haunted hotel in Florida. And. One

20:18

of the most haunted hotels. And America. You're.

20:20

Not the first person I pick up from

20:22

this hotel. To. Tell me something like

20:24

this. And it

20:26

felt like. A wave of anxiety.

20:29

I spent the last hour in the

20:31

lobby figuring out logical explanations for everything that's

20:33

happened to me. And now you're

20:35

telling me there are no logical. Explanations.

20:39

And. He's like yeah, you know, This

20:41

hotel. Used. To be a

20:43

fancy hotel at the turn of the century,

20:45

but then the mafia was involved in it.

20:48

This guy called Tommy Side was a well

20:50

known gangster. was like some children aged twenty

20:52

nine on like the fourth or fifth floor.

20:55

So then the hotel

20:57

became a hospital. And

21:00

I was like oh my god it keeps

21:03

getting worse. Like mafia to hospital. He's a

21:05

guy yeah became hostile. he's like fun. Fact:

21:08

The morgue of the Hospital. Was

21:10

in the gym. And

21:13

I was like oh My. God. The

21:15

Rash. Maybe. My body was

21:18

rejecting all of the memories of the dead

21:20

bodies. I don't know. And

21:22

he was like yeah you know after was

21:24

a hospital it was abandoned for many years

21:26

and people would break in and apparently would

21:28

to say answers. And. Then

21:31

recently the hotel was renovated

21:33

and reopened. Beasley.

21:35

There's stories about this hotel

21:37

from people that have worked

21:40

there, from people that have

21:42

stayed there. It's

21:44

well known that there are

21:46

things that happen from like

21:48

sounds, divisions, Electrical and is.

21:52

Is just what it is. Everyone knows everyone

21:54

knows this hotel. Is haunted. And.

21:57

I had to go shoot my first. Commercial.

22:00

Like. Twenty. Minutes after having this

22:02

conversation. I.

22:04

Was just like not present. Obviously because I

22:06

knew that night I had to go back

22:08

and sleep there. Before it

22:10

was at least a question mark. it was

22:12

at least like maybe I'm the crazy one

22:14

you know But now this is like cemented

22:16

all my fears. I remember

22:19

I was in the shoe and i had a my gone.

22:22

When. You're shooting something and you have a microphone.

22:24

Sometimes you forget that you're most. And

22:26

I was telling my costar like,

22:28

yeah, I'm terrified. And

22:31

a hundred percent sure that the

22:33

hotel they put me at is

22:35

haunted. I think that. I

22:37

was haunted by this one particular ghost called

22:39

Tommy Sadie was because he was a one

22:41

on gangster and apparently had an affinity towards

22:43

tall women. and I'm tall. And.

22:45

I'm seeing all of these crazy things. And.

22:48

Then the producer comes up to mean he's

22:50

like hey, Can you shut the

22:52

fuck up? The client is listening in and

22:55

things that were like torturing you. Were

22:57

changing hotels. You just need to go. And pick up

22:59

your things after the shoe. They

23:02

drove me back to the Biltmore and I had

23:04

to call me mom. I was at. You call

23:06

my dad. My dad won't believe me. I called

23:08

my. Husband. My husband was like this is the

23:10

most ridiculous for a have ever heard I don't

23:12

believe a word yourself and then I'm like the

23:15

only person. That will believe me. Here is my spiritual mom

23:17

who I used to make fun of. So understand

23:19

I put on speaker I ran into

23:21

the. Room for my stuff. Ran down

23:23

to the lobby and went to check

23:25

out and the guy the check was

23:27

a key. oh you're leading. A day

23:30

early? Is everything okay and

23:32

I was like i'm yeah,

23:34

I didn't feel. Ah

23:36

great in the room! And.

23:39

He was I. I understand. Any

23:42

Chechnya. Ever

23:46

since then I have not booked a

23:48

hotel without first googling everything because the

23:50

moment I left the Biltmore I googled

23:52

it. I googled built more Go stories

23:54

and the amount. Of stories

23:57

of articles of frickin' A

23:59

Yelp Review. hotel.com Reviews are

24:01

people are like I'd saw a woman.

24:03

I saw a woman in a night.

24:06

It's it's crazy. This.

24:08

Sort of have embraced bear on

24:10

did. Identity then they're not trying

24:12

dark tourism actually that people go there and Halloween

24:16

to stay there to see if they can like.

24:19

Meet up with some of these ghosts and

24:21

some of these patients. Are gangsters that

24:23

and Barbara and Lawrence Moroney. Moroney

27:55

and Barbara who both ran

27:58

like they were like somebody was chasing them.

28:00

Like there was a T-Rex was chasing them

28:02

and anything in their way, they were going

28:05

to smack you out of the way, they

28:07

were going to step on your neck, and

they were going to keep going until something

stopped them. And you're talking about short careers

28:14

generally. You're just, it's, there

28:16

isn't a lot of self-preservation involved except

28:19

the one time Mary and Barbara ran

28:21

out of bounds. The one time he

28:23

did. Let's not talk about that, Dan. Can we not

28:25

talk? Like I just got chills and that gets me

28:27

upset every time we talk. Of others

28:29

for some cable like a Specs and

28:31

Cable or something like that T V

28:33

It's oh my gosh, that's in the

28:35

canon of I donated. Even think

28:38

about that I guess was watching cable cable

28:40

to I am convinced the guy that was

28:42

fucking with me was Tommy Fatty was because

28:44

not only did he loved tall women and

28:46

I'm very tall but like apparently had a

28:49

sense of humor. I get A type your

28:51

his type Isis type. I'm that ghosts site

28:53

for sure. You know what I wanna be

28:55

wanted. I want to be desired A Okay,

28:58

I don't want us to be A Goes

29:00

We just wanted to ruin my life's I

29:02

like to believe that the ghost trying to

29:04

like me maybe had a little fresh. Yeah.

29:07

I do have some questions I'll exists a couple.

29:10

And. My biggest question is.

29:12

You. Know you mentioned your heartbeat accelerating and I

29:14

totally get that not being. Aware of

29:17

your heartbeat. most of the time I'm not by

29:19

it's. What? Was that moment like when

29:21

you are hearing the male and female voice? The

29:23

Tv had already gone on and off twice and

29:25

you're like. Wait, Isn't.

29:27

The other room because I think for me. I'm.

29:30

Imagining myself in that. Place. And

29:32

I know that I'd be like I

29:34

can ever. I'll never go in that

29:36

room. I was frozen for a bit of what I'm

29:39

not going to say like I was like brave immediately

29:41

like I was frozen for a bit but it got

29:43

to a point where I kind of sad to. I

29:46

needed to go through that room to

29:48

leave. I couldn't stay where

29:50

I was. There is nothing to do.

29:53

And. That moment I think

29:55

was the moment I noticed something about

29:57

myself which is in a photo fly

29:59

a open. Damn. unlike our

30:01

i'm a Fighter differ yeah, I grabbed

30:03

a remote as a weapon. I forgot

30:06

to say that. An amazing weapon by

30:08

the way. Yeah, it's really good at

30:10

it. Was either that or my tweezers.

30:13

Honestly, toss up. South. Up. Toss.

30:15

Up toss up depends how close I'm gonna get

30:17

to whatever is on either side. I thought that

30:19

my logical brain would take over and that I

30:22

would start putting the pieces the puzzle together For

30:24

that was also a of sleep with Benadryl Rights

30:26

and it's I was like I think this logical

30:28

things here that I'm just like an is not

30:30

clicking for me at the moment and if I

30:33

just give me a second I seek it can.

30:35

Figure. Out what's going on and. Every

30:38

time I. Find a solution like

30:40

oh of maybe it's remote control know the

30:42

room. something else would happen to prove that

30:45

that was not logical and else cousin that

30:47

the hair dryer thing was just just constantly

30:49

went up and get. Never when Alan you

30:51

were I've never felt the feeling of being

30:53

watched. In. That way. I

30:56

felt that the most. And when I was

30:58

in the shower and I think it's because

31:00

Tommy Walsh wanted to see me in the

31:02

shower, I'll say it in all right I

31:04

I I do literally felt like I was

31:06

being watched and I was so funny because

31:08

I could see myself in the mirror. I

31:11

don't like that. I don't like that either.

31:13

It's like. You. Know firstly of the

31:15

you know how much mirror times you like with

31:17

yourself you know that's a person questions but then

31:19

there is the idea like the psycho of at

31:21

all where you're like see this is this is

31:23

the image that a when I die like This

31:25

is what the the camera shot is when I

31:28

maria in the shower and I get to see

31:30

i felt like third person it felt like a

31:32

third prep respect and like oh you know what

31:34

they're going to get their ticket are getting some

31:36

coverage. This is the white and will sound isn't

31:38

yet as the hunt This is the why go

31:40

and it's they go in for for close up.

31:42

some like you know psycho obviously. You know,

31:45

a emblematic death scene of

31:47

the protagonist who is an

31:49

actress brutally murdered in her

31:51

shower. Because she was somebody type.

31:53

Yeah, she was some insight. Don't ever

31:55

be any one site. Men won't leave

31:57

you alone, even in death. They're going.

32:00

Their day? Well holler at

32:02

you. And your hotel room

32:04

when you think they're another. They.

32:06

Did put me up in a hotel afterwards

32:08

and it was like the W. Hotel

32:10

that was settled own

32:12

arm Twenty fifteen I.

32:15

Was just so happy to be there. I

32:17

was like average order. Room

32:19

service I'm gonna leave the T V on

32:21

all nice know goes here baby I don't

32:23

think this is on. I'm not at the

32:25

very around enough not as it w of

32:28

the only. The only sounds I would here

32:30

are from the club that was downstairs and

32:32

honestly I didn't care I was like other

32:34

people are very much alive and yeah I'm

32:36

fine with it. So. Any.

32:39

Final: Take ways. I.

32:41

Think my final take away as just like I

32:43

don't know if. I believe

32:46

in ghosts. Specifically.

32:48

Edibles. I believe the in all

32:50

this stuff but I know that

32:52

I'm not sure about anything anymore

32:54

after that experience that anything happen

32:57

ever again. I.

32:59

Did it accidentally. Get.

33:02

Book to stay at a hotel. In Chicago

33:04

where a woman was. Violently

33:06

stabbed to death like a couple

33:08

years before. And

33:10

I could not. Nothing happens, but I

33:13

could not sleep that may I was

33:15

convinced. She. Was there with me but

33:17

nothing happened. I think she's resting peacefully

33:19

for me as your on the defensive

33:22

after this Bill Maher experience. Exactly,

33:24

you know, don't blame me. Ah

33:26

no. Blame that Blame Tommy Burials

33:28

of Guilt. Blame the producers that

33:30

keep not doing their research like

33:32

a booking poor actors and actresses

33:34

into haunted. In this

33:36

In the Spectrum commercial or whatever, do you feel

33:39

like a haunted look in your eyes? like did

33:41

you have like a hollow. I.

33:43

I you know I think I did it

33:45

but I think it works because I was

33:47

supposed to be a character who like kept

33:49

fumbling and messing things up and in this

33:51

beauty queen would come up to me and

33:53

say like don't worry, I got you that

33:56

it honestly did that commercial didn't make much

33:58

sense but the fact that I was. Sort

34:00

of. not really. on actually

34:02

worked at. A idiotic about it. I'm

34:04

38:04

next story was sent in by test. Thanks.

38:06

Test. It's about a freaky

38:08

incident that happened in her childhood and

38:11

once again proves that Florida is indeed

38:13

a Tp place. When

38:24

I was ten or eleven years old, I

38:26

lived with my sister who was about twelve

38:28

and my mom in a long ranch style

38:30

house. If you're

38:33

facing the house the garage with on the

38:35

last connected to the house by a hallway.

38:37

The hallway had a back that led outside

38:39

to the backyard. One

38:42

day, my mother, sister, and I were getting

38:44

ready to go somewhere my mom's car. All

38:46

three of us were in the garage about

38:49

to get into the car when my mom

38:51

asked if we could quickly feed our pet

38:53

rabbits. The rabbits lived in a rabbit hutch

38:55

in the backyard. My

38:57

sister lived away and I followed her

38:59

from the garage into the hallway, presumably

39:01

to get to the back door. However,

39:05

as I followed my sister, she continued

39:07

past the back door straight into the

39:09

kitchen and living room. As

39:12

soon. As I noticed she was passing the

39:14

back door, I started saying something like, what

39:16

are you doing, where are you going but

39:18

she didn't respond. Instead

39:21

of going out the back, I followed her into

39:23

the living room and continued asking her what she

39:25

was doing until she reached the front door. At

39:29

that point, she had her hand on the front

39:31

door knob and. Turned. To look at me. But

39:33

instead of my sisters normal face?

39:36

The features were blurry. Like

39:39

there was television static interface

39:41

making it look distorted. There

39:44

was no discernible smile, and her

39:46

eyes looked misshapen like they were

39:48

oblong. Instead, a circular. She

39:51

looked at me for a second or two. And then

39:53

suddenly it was like she just

39:56

walked through the solid door. She

39:58

didn't open it. Don't

40:00

seem to go through it. I

40:04

didn't move or do anything for

40:06

a moment until I heard my

40:08

sister's voice behind me asking me

40:10

what I was doing. I turned

40:12

around and my actual sister was.

40:14

Standing behind looking annoyed.

40:16

That I wasn't helping her with the rabbit? I

40:20

can't remember this next part clearly,

40:22

but I'm sure I screamed. I.

40:26

Tried to tell her what had just happened. We

40:28

were both so scared and ran to the

40:30

garage to tell my mom. One

40:33

of your detail as always remembered

40:35

is that whatever this thing was

40:38

it's hair was up in a

40:40

ponytail. but my sister's hair was

40:42

down that day. I'm sure of

40:44

it. I don't

40:46

know at what point the hairstyle

40:49

changed when I was following her,

40:51

or if I was even following

40:53

my real sister. at any point

40:55

at all. Raleigh seemed so eerie
