Hello , no one's
0:34
home . Okay . Isn't
0:38
that how you're supposed to answer ?
0:40
I mean , depends on who's at the door , though I
0:43
told my mom I used to have us answer the doors , for , like the Jehovah's
0:45
Witnesses that go knock .
0:46
Yeah .
0:47
She'd be like you throw yourself on the ground like they're trying to break
0:49
in . So we'd always throw
0:51
ourselves like right under the fucking window and roll
0:53
to it . Oh God , I was like Jesus
0:55
. It's not that serious . We don't have to open the door . Shannon's
0:58
doing fucking like Raining serpentine serpentine
1:01
.
1:02
See , and all we did is play
1:04
Deicide . We'd have that in the background
1:07
and then open the door so they could come
1:09
to talk to us about God while hearing songs
1:11
about the murders of God . One
1:20
of the days I just want to
1:22
actually listen to what
1:24
they have to say , because I've always been curious about that it's . I don't
1:26
know , I did it for that . I had heard of them , I liked the beat , and then I actually
1:28
got to listening to the lyrics and I was like this is kind of tarded , so
1:30
uh oh no , I meant like
1:32
listen to the jehovah's witnesses , not deus
1:35
oh , oh , yeah , no
1:37
I I was like what the fuck is
1:39
he ? talking about . They got nothing to say
1:41
for me it's like what lyrics do
1:43
they have ?
1:45
they just had a game to be more current with the
1:47
kids .
1:48
Let's just start fucking freestyling oh
1:50

1:52

2:03

2:06
those .
2:07

2:10
One of many tangents .

They're going to learn today .
2:44
Well , what are we ?
2:46

2:48

2:53
Well , I have a ghost story , do you
2:55
?
2:56
I do , you do , I
2:59
does . It's a well
3:01
, not necessarily a ghost
3:03
story , but it is an
3:06
interesting story . A ghost
3:08
freestyle , yes .
3:12
You want to go first ?
3:15
Yeah , I can go first , All
3:18
right , all right . Looking
3:21
back at my life , I am flooded with
3:24
memories of unexplainable events . I
3:26
could literally write a chapter book of many
3:29
of the strange things I've witnessed . That goes
3:31
beyond a reasonable explanation
3:33
, but I'll start with one
3:36
and continue with
3:38
more if anyone else
3:40
is interested . I
3:42
grew up in a one-story , three-bedroom
3:44
house that had a big field in the backyard
3:47
with woods to the side . I
3:49
love this house in the woods . Despite
3:51
all the weird experiences I've encountered
3:53
, this particular experience
3:56
is definitely in my top five
3:58
, just because of the eeriness
4:00
of the whole thing . I've experienced
4:03
much stranger things , but
4:05
this one is shorter . I'm
4:07
not sure and I'm kind of being lazy in
4:09
storytelling . My
4:12
mom worked nights , so that left my older
4:14
brother to watch my younger brother and I . When
4:17
my mom was gone , my younger brother and
4:19
I would sit on her bed and watch TV
4:21
in her room . It wasn't
4:23
uncommon for us to fall asleep in her bed
4:26
sometimes , like we did on this
4:28
night . I passed out in
4:30
the middle of a movie . I awoke
4:32
a couple hours later and saw
4:34
that my younger brother was fast asleep
4:37
. I sat up and looked
4:39
over the digital alarm clock displaying
4:41
the time , 1.47
4:43
am in bright red lights , though
4:46
with a literal blink of an eye it
4:48
changed to 3.30 am . My
4:50
stomach dropped and an overwhelming feeling
4:53
of fear came over me , not
4:55
only because of the sudden missing time
4:57
, but because of the change in
4:59
energy I felt . Everything
5:01
felt just off
5:04
, a feeling
5:06
I knew quite well because of the many
5:09
experiences I've had before . There
5:11
was an eerie , unexplainable feeling
5:13
that settled over me , that
5:16
only grew stronger when I suddenly heard
5:18
what sounded like twenty wolves howling
5:20
in the direction of the field behind my house
5:23
. It was a noise I'd never
5:25
heard before and haven't heard
5:27
since , because
5:30
there are no wolves in the area I live
5:32
in , or coyotes Dogs
5:34
, yes , but a whole
5:36
pack of them . Thinking it could have just
5:39
been a weird dream or something . Years
5:41
later I was explaining what happened
5:44
to my older brother , and that's when he let
5:46
me know he heard the howling that night too . It's
5:49
something that he remembers well Because
5:51
of the creepy choir of howls is something
5:54
you don't hear where I live , damn
5:57
right well
5:59
fuck that story all the way .
6:02
I don't want to drive home today you
6:05
don't want to leave here at eight
6:07
and get home at midnight no
6:09
, because we're still recording and I'm not going to be leaving till like later and
6:11
I'm not going to be leaving until like later , so I'm not going to be leaving until
6:13
like 8.30-ish
6:15
. Shit , it's possible
6:17
. And it's a long drive in just the
6:19
fucking desert . Fuck , why do
6:21
I do this every time ? From
6:24
now on , we're recording these shits in the morning .
6:26
Right ? Well then
6:28
, let's see what terrifyingness you
6:30
have .
6:32
Alright . Well , my story is called the eerie
6:34
attic . Oh shit
6:37
, yeah , I got this one from Reddit .
6:39
Nice , that's always a classic Yep
6:41
. So ready , ready
6:44
.
6:44
Freddie , a few years
6:46
ago I moved to a one bedroom apartment
6:48
in Melbourne , australia . They went
6:50
on to recall it was my first time living
6:52
on my own . The apartment block had been
6:54
built in the 1930s . I'd
6:57
been there for a few months . But
6:59
I came home from work one day and went into the bathroom I
7:02
saw something strange a wooden board which had
7:04
covered a hole in the ceiling that led to a small
7:06
attic space . It laid
7:08
fracturing two pieces on the ground . I examined
7:10
the piece . The board was an inch thick
7:12
. It laid fracturing two pieces on the ground . I examined the piece . The board was an inch thick
7:14
, a whole inch thick , my guy Damn
7:16
.
7:17
That'd be some severely hard board to
7:19
crack . I mean inch
7:21
wood is fucking sturdy .
7:23
Yep , and they go on to say and it would
7:25
have taken Bruce Lee to break it .
7:27
Oh , fuck yeah .
7:28
Yeah , so I thought the landlord had sent someone to work
7:31
on the attic . I was frozen stiff with fear
7:33
. Someone is up there for sure . I thought
7:35
. I emailed the picture of the landlord
7:37
asking if anyone had been there , with an undertone
7:39
of annoyance , since she hadn't warned me . Her
7:43
reply read please call me
7:45
as soon as you're able to . Oh damn
7:47
, I called and she explained
7:49
that her last two tenants had
7:52
said they had the same thing happen . She
7:55
promised to replace the board and she did . A
7:58
month later I woke up one night around
8:00
4 am . My body was covered in goosebumps
8:03
. I felt like someone was rubbing his
8:05
or her hands on me . Everything was silent
8:07
. But then I heard a dragging sound come
8:09
from above my bed , as if someone was pulling a sack of potatoes . I froze , convinced someone
8:11
was pulling a sack of potatoes . I froze , uh
8:14
, convinced someone was up there . There was no way
8:16
an animal could make that sound . After five minutes
8:18
I woke up . After five minutes
8:20
I worked up the courage to turn on the light
8:22
, armed myself with a cricket bat and walked into the bath
8:24
. The bathroom , that's when I saw the
8:26
new board covering the hole was broken in two . I
8:29
felt sick . The dragging sound had stopped , but I
8:31
heard something else whispering . The
8:34
sound was cleared and coming from the attic . It sounded
8:36
like a children's voice and
8:38
I could hear one sentence repeat over and over it's
8:41
your turn , it's your turn . I
8:43
switched on every light in the apartment to make things feel
8:45
normal . It was 5 am and dark
8:47
outside . I watched TV and tried
8:50
to unwind , and then a fuse blew . My
8:52
pet Budgie , dexter , whom I kept in the kitchen
8:54
, usually never made a sound at night , but
8:56
he started squawking like he was being strangled
8:58
. Oh Jesus , yeah , I'd never
9:01
heard him make these sort of noises . He
9:03
was screaming . I grabbed my car keys , ran outside
9:05
and sat in my car and waited there until the sun
9:07
came up . When I saw people walking
9:09
their dogs , this comforted me enough to go back in . When I saw people walking their dogs
9:11
discomforted me enough to go back in . The front door was
9:14
open , but I figured I might have forgotten to close
9:16
it . When I ran out I went to the kitchen
9:18
to check on Dexter , but he wasn't in his cage
9:20
. I felt sick again . All my windows
9:22
were closed , so I looked everywhere inside . When
9:24
I walked to the bathroom , I heard splashing . Dexter
9:27
was half drowned in the toilet . I
9:29
took him out , washed him and dried him . I was also
9:31
confused . At 8am I called
9:33
the landlord and gave her a watered-down version
9:35
of the night . Oh wow , you heard the whispering
9:37
too , she said . I stayed
9:40
in the apartment for another 18 months . I heard the
9:42
whispering on a few occasions and twice the
9:44
boards covering the hole in the ceiling moved , although
9:47
I live elsewhere now . The landlord
9:49
recently called . She said the new tenants
9:51
had begged to speak with me about some
9:53
of the stuff that's been going on there . Forget
9:56
it , that's their problem now , right
9:58
?
10:00
Yeah , that's , yeah , that's the
10:04
board . Break is the scary part .
10:06
Yeah , the board break .
10:06
Hearing voices and shit isn't bad , but but
10:10
it's little kid voices , though .
10:13
to that I'd say , like , do like research
10:15
on the fucking house to see like they
10:17
had like dead kids die in there , like
10:20
missing children , because if it's coming
10:22
from the hole that's in , like in the attic yeah
10:25
what if they , like , killed the kids
10:27
. They hid the bodies in there .
10:29
I mean , yeah , they could have kids
10:31
bodies , people's bodies
10:33
, fucking yeah , they could have
10:35
done a lot of weird shit but seeing that like it
10:38
attacked the little bird , that's
10:40
fucking crazy , though like it's
10:42
not a nice spirit , oh no
10:44
not at all , especially if it's going for a bird
10:47
I mean I .
10:49
I'd get it if it was a pigeon , but no
10:51
one has a pet pigeon it's a budgie yeah
10:54
, whatever the fuck that is , it's a little bird , but
10:57
that's crazy , though that's my theory at least
10:59
. Well , that's my second theory . My
11:02
first theory is it's a demon . Yeah
11:04
, no
11:07
such thing as ghost children , just demons
11:09
.
11:10
Well , I don't even think it's that . I think it would just be a
11:12
full-fledged demon mimicking a child's
11:14
voice .
11:18
So you're more comfortable about uh , going in there
11:20
and yeah , seeing what they mean , it's your turn . Yeah , it's
11:22
your turn .
11:23
Like don't go , don't , don't fucking go near that
11:25
hole now imagine
11:28
if , uh , somehow the
11:30
person that lost time was
11:32
going and visiting them in some
11:34
sort of weird spiritual way
11:36
what the fuck
11:39
it's crazy
11:41
you never know , man .
11:43
There's a lot of stuff we don't know when it comes to the
11:45
paranormal and all that kind of shit
11:47
I swear to god , dude , if I moved into like
11:49
a fucking place and then
11:51
all that shit started happening , the landlord's like oh
11:53
, you're hearing it too . I'd fucking
11:55
throw hands with that landlord . Like you , let me
11:57
move into a fucking haunted apartment
11:59
. You didn't tell me shit yeah
12:01
, like what the fuck is wrong with you ?
12:03
that also threw me off like who ? Who
12:05
doesn't disclose that shit
12:07
?
12:09
well , they're not gonna be like . I get it , I
12:11
understand they're not gonna be like , oh , it's haunted
12:13
. Because a lot of people will be like , oh , I don't believe in hauntings
12:15
or ghosts or whatever , but there's
12:17
a good amount of people that do believe in it and they're it's
12:20
gonna harm your sales . I
12:22
would like disclose him like hey , some
12:24
people say it's haunted , but I
12:27
don't believe that .
12:28
I just love to make their own fucking choices but to not
12:30
tell them at all or
12:32
just be like yeah , one day
12:35
I was in here and I heard whispering , but
12:37
it might have been a bad batch of weed
12:39
that I smoked or some shit you know .
12:41
Yeah , yeah , I took a bad batch of mushrooms
12:44
or . Like throw a joke in or something
12:46
, but to fucking kind of lighten
12:48
the mood on a fucking haunted apartment that you're
12:50
about to move into , like give them
12:52
the option to fucking move into that or not
12:55
. Like don't fucking take that away from them . Yeah
13:02
, a lot of people don't have that kind of respect . That's fucking stupid . They fucking
13:04
pissed me off because that's exactly what happened to us . We lived on that
13:06
apartment over there , yeah that's exactly what fucking
13:08
happened . Well , actually I can't tell , because
13:10
I'm thinking it might be one of us that's haunted
13:12
well , I mean , that's the same apartment
13:14
that my cousin lived in .
13:15
That was haunted as fuck okay , then , never mind
13:18
.
13:18
Then it's the fucking apartments , because a lot of
13:20
shit happened there , dude , and
13:22
it's fucking terrifying . We were just talking about this shit earlier
13:24
. I was talking to your wife about the shit
13:26
. If you guys have been listening for a while , I've talked
13:28
about this like extensively , but
13:31
for me , the scariest fucking like
13:33
ghost thing still is
13:35
, uh , I had walked out . I was like I
13:38
want something like two in the morning . What
13:40
was it around there ? Yeah , and I'm
13:42
like thirsty and I was . I was walking to like
13:44
I was gonna go to the fridge and my room like
13:46
when you walk out , it's a clear like shot
13:49
of like the living room , the kitchen , you can see both , and
13:52
I saw somebody like hunched over at the fucking like
13:54
at the the fridge yeah
13:56
and I was like oh , I thought it was you . I
13:58
thought you were like because your wife used to buy
14:00
like these cool , like like
14:02
fresh fruit drinks oh
14:05
yeah , those are fucking , I thought you were drinking
14:07
it like out of the gallon . I was like , all right
14:09
, I thought you were hunched over drinking it and
14:11
I was there . I was like what is this second crazy guy
14:13
doing ? And I started walking like towards it
14:15
and then , like it stops and it starts like it's
14:18
like standing up , like extending itself
14:20
, yeah , and it's like the
14:22
same height as the fridge is . Like I mean , you're like
14:24
six something , okay . And
14:26
then it got taller than the fridge and started like getting like
14:29
fucking almost touching the roof . I was
14:31
like , oh , oh , I'm done
14:33
. Fatality
14:35
. Yeah , dude . I went back in my room . I I didn't
14:37
fucking say anything , I didn't make a sound , I
14:40
didn't fucking like try to take a picture
14:42
or see what the fuck it was . I
14:44
fucking went , I locked my door and I turned
14:46
my TV and the fucking my Xbox on
14:48
and I was just watching movies till
14:50
like maybe four
14:52
or five in the morning and then I fucking just crashed
14:55
out . I four or five in the morning and then I fucking just
14:57
crashed out .
14:57
I was fucking terrified . Yeah , it definitely sounds
14:59
like it . I said I I
15:01
never experienced anything weird there
15:03
dude , I have a lot of shit .
15:05
I got something on video too . I remember
15:07
I was watching a movie and I was alone in the house
15:09
and I was looking at the door , like the light
15:11
that comes through the door , and it looked like somebody's
15:14
like fucking walking , like
15:16
just pacing back and forth , and I have a recording
15:18
of that shit too . Oh nice , I'll
15:20
show you at some point , I think you've shown me that
15:22
yeah I'm just watching a movie
15:24
, and this was like midday , which is fucking the
15:26
worst when it happens during the day . Yeah
15:29
, because you expect you at nine , you're like , oh , I'm safe
15:31
during the day . Nope , whatever
15:33
was in that apartment did not give a fuck , because they
15:35
didn't terrify your daughter too at some point .
15:39
I don't know . I remember her waking up crying
15:42
, I think one night , saying something about a monster
15:44
.
15:47
No , she didn't say anything about a monster . She said there was a shadow
15:49
or something that was scaring her in the kitchen
15:51
or something . But she was small though .
15:55
Yeah , but I mean , kids are susceptible
15:57
to that shit .
15:57
Oh , yeah , dude , they're very perceptive to the fucking other
16:00
shit . It freaks me out them and fucking pets
16:02
.
16:03
Yeah , yeah , when you have an animal that just
16:06
stares and won't stop staring .
16:07
That's like what are you looking at ?
16:09
stop it yeah , at that
16:12
point , that's when you want to run and hide . Oh yeah , dude , that's fucking terrifying
16:14
. Well , I'm gonna .
16:14
I said we cut it here because I do have to still drive home and I'm terrified . When you want to run and
16:16
hide . Oh yeah , dude , that's fucking terrifying . Well , I'm going to . I said we cut
16:18
it here because I do have to still drive home and I'm terrified
16:21
