From cake you a D and

to have the power allowing

1:35

the user period of the

1:37

world's features and mentions. Course:

1:41

Eight years old. I

1:44

don't know this. And

1:46

yes, figure it's high time I give

1:48

myself a nice shade. I can see

1:50

my father. Far

1:53

away, To. The

1:55

coast is clear, creek

1:57

over to the bathroom locked door class

1:59

up on the step stool, turn on

2:02

the hot water. Then

2:05

in front of the bathroom mirror,

2:08

I lather up my face with

2:10

barbersaw shaving cream. And

2:13

the smell, the

2:16

shock of white, the sting against

2:18

my skin. It's awesome. And

2:22

to get a better look, to

2:24

marvel at my new

2:27

manly manliness, I grab

2:29

my mother's old hand mirror and

2:32

angle it toward myself in the bathroom

2:34

mirror. And

2:36

in this reflection, I

2:39

see infinite

2:42

me. White

2:44

foam smiling in the back of

2:46

my head, repeating to forever. I'm

2:50

staring at these other

2:53

green myself, trying to see if

2:55

we're all the same or maybe

2:57

just the tiniest big giffel. And

3:00

then, for

3:02

the burdensome moment, I see

3:06

my face that is

3:08

not ours. As

3:11

clear as

3:13

Christmas, staring

3:15

back, angry,

3:17

furious, eyes,

3:19

I drop

3:21

a mirror.

3:23

It shatters

3:25

into a

3:28

thousand pieces.

3:31

To my core, terrified. Standing

3:34

among shards of sponged glass, shaving cream

3:37

running from my face. And it takes

3:39

me a long

3:41

time. Years.

3:46

To find the courage to search

3:48

for a shadow figure again. To

3:52

pick up and hold mirrors against a

3:55

mirror with trembling

3:57

hands. something

4:00

that should not be there. I've

4:05

never since seen anything except my

4:07

own terrified eyes blinking back, but

4:09

I think that

4:13

millisecond and

4:16

shadow that certain knowledge has touched

4:18

every single thing I have ever

4:20

done since. Always there,

4:25

always waiting. As much

4:28

as I wish it were not so. In

4:33

fact, I'm pretty sure, I'm

4:36

pretty sure that this show began starting

4:43

between two mirrors. Mirrors,

5:54

hands, energies. The

6:01

city known for its deadly people. It

6:30

is a sultry summer

6:34

day. There was almost steam

6:36

coming up from the street.

6:40

We were driving around

6:43

and admiring the beautiful

6:46

old trees with Spanish

6:50

moss that hang

6:52

down in this

6:54

lacy billowy way.

6:59

We went for a

7:01

stream, I remember. And

7:04

then we decided to take

7:06

a walking tour. After

7:10

that, it was so hot,

7:12

we decided to go back

7:14

to our hotel room. We

7:19

start looking through my

7:22

husband's digital camera. We

7:25

are excited to see all

7:27

the pictures that we had

7:30

taken that day. We

7:32

looked at our pictures of us eating ice

7:35

cream and strolling through the

7:38

park and my daughter playing

7:40

with a little dog that

7:42

she had met there. But

7:45

we couldn't wait until we got

7:48

to the pictures of our

7:50

tour. to

8:01

the last few

8:03

pictures, we see something

8:06

really strange. We're

8:11

looking at golden orbs,

8:14

dozens and dozens of floating

8:17

lights and orbs the size

8:19

of tennis balls. The

8:25

pictures were filled with these

8:27

things floating all around

8:29

our face and

8:32

all around our bodies. It

8:35

was beautiful actually. This

8:39

feeling of awe

8:41

came rushing to me. I

8:46

think we're both a little bit dumbfounded.

8:54

After about 15 minutes, we

8:57

put my daughter down to sleep

9:00

and when we went back to

9:02

the pictures, somehow

9:05

the last batch of pictures,

9:08

they were completely black. They

9:12

were all dark and there

9:14

was nothing there, including us.

9:19

What happened? It

9:22

was as if we

9:24

didn't have the experience at

9:26

all. We

9:29

couldn't tell anybody anything except to

9:31

tell them as a story. The

9:51

tour started in

9:53

a famous square. It's

9:56

like a park where you can sit

9:58

on benches. have

10:01

a sip of lemonade. It

10:04

has beautiful flowers,

10:07

lovely trees. There

10:11

was a whole bunch of people,

10:13

I would say about 20 people,

10:16

and a tour guide. The tour

10:20

was about three-quarters of

10:22

a mile. It was

10:24

geared towards families by

10:26

someone who really knew

10:29

the town of Savannah. After

10:33

the tour, we ended up

10:35

back at the square

10:39

at the same spot. Everybody

10:42

was saying their goodbyes and

10:45

thanking the guide. We could

10:49

see everybody wandering

10:51

off. We

10:54

were the last family there. We

10:59

decided to walk around a little bit. My

11:02

little daughter, she was about

11:04

three years old, and

11:07

she had a bright

11:09

blue stroller. We

11:11

would put her in the stroller, and then she'd want

11:13

to get out and walk. I'm

11:16

like, no, no, it's too hot. No,

11:19

I want to walk. I want to walk. So

11:23

I picked her up out of the

11:25

stroller. All of

11:27

a sudden, I hear, hello.

11:30

I was

11:33

really startled because

11:35

I thought everybody had gone.

11:37

I looked up and

11:40

there was a couple there.

11:42

The woman and a man,

11:45

we didn't see them walk up. They

11:49

were sitting on the fountain. We

11:51

were very close to

11:54

them. The

11:57

woman appeared to be about in her

11:59

late 20s. or early 30s.

12:02

She was a brunette and she had

12:04

a stark, startling blue eyes. Her

12:08

skin was very pale as if she

12:10

avoided the sun. She had

12:13

her hair pulled up in

12:15

a sort of bun. She had on

12:19

a longish skirt, it was

12:21

modest, and she had on a little

12:23

jacket and she had on boots and it was in

12:25

the middle of summer. Like,

12:28

who is this person? I

12:33

was like, hi. My

12:36

husband looked up to him and said, hey.

12:40

The young man, he had

12:42

on a jacket as well, the

12:45

tomato red jacket. His

12:48

hair was long and wavy,

12:51

but I couldn't see his face. And

12:55

she said, oh, that's my husband.

12:57

He enjoys

12:59

looking out at the square. And

13:03

I'm like, okay. The

13:06

lady just started shouting, hey,

13:10

you guys are new around here.

13:12

Never seen you before. And I was

13:15

like, uh, yeah.

13:20

Have you ever been to Savannah before?

13:22

It's a great town. It's lovely

13:24

here. And I

13:26

said, yes, it's very nice.

13:31

And her husband is no

13:34

nodding. Like, he's agreeing

13:36

with everything she's saying,

13:39

but he's still not turning

13:42

his head. He's only looking

13:44

off into the distance. His

13:48

wife is chatting up a storm.

13:51

She's not taking a pause as

13:53

if she doesn't want us to leave.

13:57

Every time I go to say, well,

14:00

It's time to go, she starts a

14:02

new conversation. Oh

14:04

my goodness, is that your

14:06

daughter? Oh,

14:08

she's so pretty. That

14:11

was beginning to create new. Suppose

14:17

they're complete weirdos and

14:20

they hold us

14:22

up, they kidnap us. Because

14:26

I watch enough Dateline to

14:28

think that, right? At

14:30

the same time, it felt

14:33

as if they were harmless and

14:37

that they really just wanted

14:39

to talk. And

14:43

she says, don't you just love the

14:45

square? We

14:47

got married here some time

14:49

ago and

14:51

so it's our favorite place. And

14:55

I'm thinking, but they look so young. They

14:58

haven't had weddings there in

15:01

almost 100 years. He

15:06

says, can I see your husband's camera?

15:08

I've never seen one like that before.

15:12

And my husband was a camera,

15:14

but he's all up into the

15:16

conversation. Like, yes,

15:18

this is what it does. He

15:21

didn't seem to notice anything weird at all

15:24

because he never does. I'm

15:29

trying to give him the hint.

15:31

Can we go now, please? I

15:34

would like to leave. And

15:36

she says, I want

15:39

you to remember us. Take

15:43

some more pictures. Take some pictures

15:45

of the fountain and I

15:47

wanna take a picture with your little girl. She

15:50

goes to my husband, take the picture. Take

15:52

the picture, this is perfect. My

15:55

husband takes the picture. And

15:58

then she stands up by the door. the fountain and says,

16:00

you take a picture of us now. I

16:04

go, okay. And

16:06

she says, no, you get in the picture, you get in

16:08

the picture. She's getting

16:10

more and more excited. Her

16:14

attitude is almost unhinged.

16:17

And this gentleman is

16:19

still nodding and he's

16:21

nodding more furiously. Finally,

16:25

I say to her,

16:28

my daughter's getting really tired. We've

16:30

had her out too late already.

16:34

And she goes, Oh, I wish

16:36

you guys didn't have to go.

16:38

You know, we hardly

16:40

get any company. Okay,

16:43

well, come back and see us. Please.

16:45

We'd love to see you again. And,

16:48

and, and I hope the

16:50

pictures help you to remember us.

16:55

We said, okay, thank you very much.

16:58

And we start walking off. And as

17:00

we are walking off, she's still talking.

17:04

Please come back. Please. We'd

17:06

love to have you back. Please come back. My

17:10

husband is always ready

17:12

to start an

17:15

entirely new conversation

17:17

because I know him. So

17:21

my husband starts turning.

17:24

And then I turn to kind of pull

17:27

on him to say, come

17:29

on, let's go. And there

17:31

was nobody there. And

17:36

you can see the

17:38

entire square. It was

17:41

impossible for them to have walked

17:44

off without us seeing them walking

17:47

away into the distance. That

17:50

was so creepy.

17:57

We get to the inn and

17:59

we decide we're going to look

18:01

at the pictures and

18:03

all we see is all

18:06

these golden orbs. There

18:09

is no man, there is no woman.

18:13

All we see is dozens of

18:15

these golden orbs. After

18:20

about 15 minutes the

18:23

picture goes dark. I

18:28

was like, aha, I knew it. I

18:31

knew there was something very

18:34

strange about this

18:37

couple. My

18:40

husband, he was saying, well,

18:42

they could have walked off

18:44

really quickly. He

18:47

tried every which way for about 10

18:49

minutes not to believe it. But

18:54

then he just said, you know

18:56

what, I can't think of anything

18:58

else but that

19:00

they were ghosts. I

19:08

had an actual conversation

19:11

with a ghost. Susie,

19:25

we are so glad you emerged

19:27

from that conversation safe and sound. Thanks

21:19

Grease has been a licensed

21:21

vocational nurse for seven years. Her favorite

21:24

shift is

21:28

nighttime in the nursing home. She's got the time to

21:30

take care of her patients without rushing

21:33

around. She's got time until the

21:36

night she calls for help. She's got

21:38

the time to take

21:40

care of her patients without rushing

21:42

around. She's got time until the night she

21:47

calls for help. Because the help she gets, well

21:51

that's no help at all.

21:53

Spooked. So

22:18

the living room of the nursing home,

22:20

it has TVs and we have several

22:22

couches there. There's a piano,

22:25

there's a radio. Some

22:27

of our Alzheimer patients, they

22:29

don't remember a whole lot but they remember how

22:31

to play the piano. I

22:39

found my dementia patients to be

22:41

my most favorite patients. They're

22:43

super sweet. They're always

22:45

trying to escape. I had this

22:48

one gentleman who would say, hey, you

22:50

know, I have a thousand bucks in

22:53

my pocket. And I'm like, oh yeah,

22:55

that's kind of cool, right? What are you planning to do with

22:57

it? Well half of

22:59

it is yours. If you let me out of this

23:01

window, you know, I won't tell anybody. I

23:04

just tell him, well, let me finish my shift and then I'll

23:06

come back and get you. Don't

23:09

forget to offer it again. One

23:19

night, soon after I started, I

23:21

was walking down the hallway. I was talking

23:23

to another nurse. She's

23:26

like, my patient expired. Can you walk

23:28

with me, right? She

23:31

needed me as a witness for the time

23:34

of death for the patient. So

23:38

we were going through the dementia unit

23:40

which has two double doors that are

23:42

locked. In those

23:45

double doors, they have a small

23:47

window towards the top. In

23:49

that little window, I saw

23:52

a woman standing there. I

23:56

could see her shoulders, her head, and

23:58

then she had... gray

24:01

hair. And

24:05

I said, what am I looking at? The

24:07

other nurse, she's like, oh, you see a tooth?

24:10

It's the soul of the person. It just

24:16

kind of hangs around for a little bit trying to

24:18

figure out that they already passed. Once

24:23

we opened the doors, there was nobody there. Wow.

24:28

I was amazed. She

24:30

told me it happened to her all the time. She's

24:35

been in the field already for more than 20

24:37

years. There was just

24:39

no doubt. I

24:41

had heard of this kind of thing before, but

24:45

I had never seen anything like it myself.

24:53

One night in early March

24:55

2020, I was

24:57

in the front by myself. It was

25:00

already like 2 a.m. I was

25:03

sitting in the nurse's station with

25:05

my little rolling chair. I started

25:08

writing my reports so that I

25:10

could get them ready for the end of the shift. And I

25:14

started hearing the piano. It

25:19

was just two keys that seemed

25:21

to play. The deep

25:23

notes. And

25:25

I thought to myself, did I honestly just hear that? Because

25:29

there's nobody here with me. It

25:32

gave me the chills. Like, my legs were definitely

25:35

shaking. Where

25:37

is that coming from? From

25:42

my nurse's station, I could

25:44

see the piano directly. I know that there's nobody

25:46

there. So I'm

25:48

like, okay, well, let me go look. Maybe somebody

25:52

woke up. Maybe a patient's

25:54

out here and they're confused

25:56

and whatnot. I walked down the

25:58

hallway and I could just quickly count. that

26:00

all my patients were there. And

26:03

then I think, okay, so somebody's playing a joke

26:06

on me, right? I

26:08

go look for my co-workers, and no, they

26:11

were all in the back doing their jobs and stuff. I

26:15

was like, okay, so I imagined it. And

26:18

I'm gonna start doing my round. But

26:22

then I see that the piano, it

26:24

has a little book of

26:26

music. And

26:29

I saw one page starting to turn,

26:31

and then

26:34

it struggled, and then it went back, and it just stayed there flat. And

26:39

then it started to rise up again, and it fully turned. And

26:43

then another one was starting to. There's

26:48

no vent, I could say, it's pushing the

26:50

pages. None

26:53

of the fans were on.

26:55

And all those windows, they don't open.

26:59

I felt chills on the back of my spine. The

27:04

air felt so thick, like threatening

27:06

energy. I felt

27:08

like it was trying to scare me. I

27:17

didn't want to go and call my co-workers because I

27:19

didn't want them to think that I was that crazy

27:21

nurse that they had to work with. So

27:24

I FaceTime my husband. He

27:27

works in Alaska, and he worked

27:29

night shift. When

27:32

he answers the phone, he

27:35

looked a little confused. He

27:37

says, why are you calling me FaceTime if you're at

27:39

work? Because I never really do that. I'm

27:43

telling him, okay, something weird's going on. I

27:46

need you to tell me I'm not going

27:48

crazy. He's

27:51

like, but you're always crazy. What

27:53

do you want me to do about it? He

27:56

was joking around. That said.

28:00

type of person that he is. He

28:03

explained what was going on with

28:05

the piano. I

28:08

said, I don't know, what do you think is going on? I

28:11

was hoping he was going

28:13

to go into the logistics of why the

28:15

piano could have played. There's

28:17

a mouse in there, something. But

28:20

instead he went quiet and he

28:23

was focusing on the screen. I

28:26

was like, okay, he's looking for something. He

28:32

says, hey, so don't

28:35

freak out, but

28:38

I'm going to send you a screenshot, a

28:42

screenshot of me. I

28:45

immediately got mad because that's not what I called him

28:48

for. I just

28:50

told him, you're not really helping right

28:52

now. That's not what I wanted to hear. And

28:55

I just hung up. The

29:02

call just made matters worse. I

29:05

was not going to think about what he said. I wasn't

29:07

even going to go there. Although

29:11

I was super scared, I was pretending

29:13

like, okay, I'm just going to get to work and

29:16

I'm having a regular day. Before

29:19

I know it, it's going to be morning and I'm

29:21

going to be out of there. I

29:28

turned on all the lights to the dining room,

29:30

to the hallways. I

29:32

go to this particular patient and

29:35

the room you go into the door and

29:38

there's two beds inside of one

29:40

room. And

29:43

it's divided by a curtain so

29:45

they can get privacy as they're sleeping. The

29:50

curtain is to my right and

29:53

the patient is in front of me. And

29:57

on the other side of the curtain. I

30:00

could see this dark shadow.

30:05

It had like the shape of somebody that was wearing a

30:07

hoodie. I

30:14

thought, okay, it could be the other patient on

30:16

the other side. But

30:20

the shadow just kept getting taller and

30:22

taller and taller. This

30:25

thing was like two feet above me.

30:30

I look at my patient. I

30:32

can tell he's seeing the shadow too. It

30:36

just looks scared, scared, scared,

30:38

scared. His

30:41

eyes were wide and he

30:43

is grabbing onto my hand so

30:45

that I couldn't leave or I can go. I'm

30:49

feeling really scared at that moment.

30:53

This thing was getting more brave. Whatever

30:57

it was, it was trying to show itself to

30:59

me. But

31:01

I was thinking more about my patient because

31:03

I can run but they can't. They're

31:06

bed bound, nonverbal. I

31:11

felt like I had to be the brave one. And

31:15

I grabbed the curtain and I quickly

31:17

push it off to the wall. And

31:22

there's nothing there. And the patient

31:25

on the other side is asleep. I

31:28

have goosebumps all over. I felt my

31:30

skin was ice cold. And

31:33

my blood dropped all the way down to

31:36

my feet. I

31:38

tell my patient, hey, it's okay. You know, I'm going to

31:40

be right back. I'm

31:42

going to leave the light on on your side. And

31:46

I'm going to go and walk to the

31:48

back station to get another nurse to come

31:50

with me to the hallway. I'm

31:56

trying not to run. And

32:01

then behind me

32:05

the door slammed. I

32:07

keep walking further and another door

32:10

slams. I

32:14

didn't even want to look back to see

32:16

what doors. I

32:18

had a feeling that whatever evil thing was there

32:20

it was letting me know, I'm right

32:24

here. I'm

32:26

right next to you. I'm

32:29

going as fast as you are. So

32:40

I finally get to the back

32:42

station. The two CNAs are there.

32:44

They're doing their computer documentation, right?

32:48

I said there's something there. It's not

32:51

letting me work. It

32:53

feels evil and they looked at each other and

32:55

they were like, really?

33:00

Smiling and looking at each other and then looking at me.

33:02

And out

33:05

of nowhere it's dead quiet.

33:09

You hear a little growl voice. The

33:21

CNA to my left who

33:23

was facing me, she

33:27

jumps up and she's

33:29

like, did you hear that? And my expression must

33:31

have told her everything. She's like, you heard it, right?

33:33

You heard it. And

33:35

I'm like, I'm telling you there's something

33:38

evil here with us. I didn't

33:43

want to discuss it too much. I didn't want it

33:45

to come back. The

33:51

morning shift was coming in so we had already turned on

33:54

all the lights. 6

33:56

a.m. the nurse gets there. I give a report. And

34:00

I'm like, I am gonna get out of here. And

34:03

I said, you know what, I'm gonna say sorry to my husband.

34:05

I didn't even call him back. And I know he had called

34:07

me a couple of times right after and then he sent me

34:10

a few messages. But with

34:12

everything going on, I honestly had not thought about

34:14

the picture. I'm

34:16

like, I'm just gonna shoot him a text message that I'm

34:18

sorry, right? So

34:25

I get in my car and I'm getting ready to leave.

34:29

And I pull out my phone and I see

34:31

the text messages that he sent me. And

34:34

I immediately see the screenshot

34:37

that he sent me. He

34:40

had already zoomed it in

34:42

and he had circled in red

34:45

the area that he wanted me to look at. I

34:49

could see my shoulder on

34:51

the screenshot and behind

34:53

me I could see the windows

34:56

of the nursing home in

35:00

the corner where the two walls

35:02

meet. I

35:04

could see a black tall

35:06

figure. It was pretty

35:08

thin. And then at

35:10

the top, I

35:13

could see a white face with

35:16

wide eyes and its mouth wide

35:19

open. That's

35:22

what I was seeing behind the curtain. It's

35:26

a very, very tall dark shadow. I

35:30

felt like my legs were

35:32

made out of jello at that time. And

35:35

they were shaking a little bit and I'm like, what

35:38

if it follows me? What

35:40

if it's in the back of my car right now? I'm

35:44

like, alright, just get yourself together. I

35:49

did not want to be by myself after that. For

35:58

a while, like, it just, I would go. The

36:00

sleep and I felt like something was staring at

36:02

me or I can go to sleep by myself. My

36:06

husband so jokes about it right now. The.

36:09

Joke is that he would

36:11

rather take a screenshot. Then

36:13

save my life because he never told me to

36:15

for. An away from. The

36:24

next week. That's when though waves hit for

36:27

the covered. Within

36:29

that first week, we lost

36:32

fourteen patients. We

36:34

were losing people without been able

36:36

to even help them. There was

36:38

no ambulances coming to pick up

36:40

these poor patients. We

36:43

were on our own. I

36:50

was thinking about everything that

36:52

was going on in that

36:54

specific night came to mind.

36:56

It just made me think

36:58

that. It was

37:00

a sign. An

37:03

omen of all the deaths that was coming. I

37:07

seen. That

37:09

evil was just. Walking

37:13

around. Holes

So recently spoken with several a

Isi to stay at Bit. But

39:44

not entirely certain how their own

39:47

was scenes work? To

39:49

they're often surprised by the

39:52

answers erupting from their creations.

39:54

Surprise Such sentiments even dismays.

39:58

flat earth

40:00

is scraped. The entirety

40:02

of human knowledge, human

40:05

art, poets, novels, doodles,

40:07

stories, photos, love notes, erotica,

40:09

all of it, all of

40:12

us harvesting ourselves to

40:14

feed their new god. Why

40:17

are we surprised that sometimes it

40:19

feels as if the machines have

40:21

taken on a life of

40:24

their own? We've

40:27

sacrificed our

40:29

lives for theirs, feeding

40:32

it our very imaginations, knowing

40:34

full well since

40:37

the ancient god, second

40:41

star, since the terminator, we've

40:43

prophesied the day our creation

40:45

turns on its master and

40:47

yet, even

40:49

now, we have

40:52

the goal to

40:54

imagine a happy ending. This

40:59

ghosting machine is

41:01

not apart from us. That

41:04

dark energy is us. We can

41:06

still have happy lives. That's

41:09

the best we can do. Yes,

41:13

and we can see ourselves more clearly. To

41:17

better end, friends, I

41:20

offer one humble suggestion.

41:25

Never, never, never,

41:29

never, never, never, never, never, never,

41:31

never, never, never. Turn

41:34

out. This

41:57

story was someone in the dark of

41:59

night. at KQED

42:02

and PRM.
