And crazy for this, I had .

nothing to do with close. I guess. I guess I mean, depends, I look at IT certainly does. I was acting a cloud. I will go right into IT.

Do I just do a quick intro? Love you guys. I've been listening for one for one tall and listening from most recent episode, and i'm working my way down to number one.

Oh, that's an interest doing IT.

maybe .

not though. So yeah, you're listening to the show in in a tour now for about a tour now and that you're going at a at a very interesting well, I guess from now to beginning. But you are also saying that your name is jane, which I can say, don't thank you.

So this terrifying bud hole clenching experience takes place way back when, in the level year of two thousand and sixteen, I was but a scrunch, pimple faced, wild hired, mentally unstable middle school year. During this unfortunate time in my life, you may remember a certain killer club and democracy. I personally had never been scared of clowns.

But old boy, was that opinion about to kick me in my nonexisting medal school balls. Let's set the scene. There was eleven o'clock at night on friday, mid spooky season.

The following was nippy, and I was at a sleep over with two of my friends. Amy, whose else we were residing, lived in middle of literally bum fuck nowhere. Like actually, he lived on a hundred acre private property that was only accessible by a windy gravel road.

Honestly, the dream.

But her father was a very paranoid man who we all joked, but seriously thought was part of the CIA or the FBI. He supposedly worked as a mail man. But sir, sir, you expect us to believe your children go to private school mail, man salary, not fuck and buy in IT. There are those government .

workers that I do. They make like Better money.

I have no idea, like there's not one part of me that can answer that question. Yes.

I don't know what they make, but I do know that they work like technical year. A government .

and private school was wildly expensive.

Yeah I I don't I didn't do that.

That would like college yeah .

I like I went to like the worst public .

whatever I you know public schools great sometimes in on where yeah exactly yeah. So the house was an old two story brick with looming ing windows. Amy's dad also had numerous secret tunnels in the house, just in case of any threat. Yeah, he's on a moment. I was just going to say, think we figured this is he is CIA.

my friend. He said, welcome to the C. I, A. There go.

Does anybody remember? Sorry, we're going off topic, but I we've talked about this before.

A M.

IT doesn't exist anymore. IT was IT was called like the california institute of the .

arts and D I A, it's actually on topic because they had a dead club.

There you go. The C I A, yeah, so IT all makes sense. But when I went to california before, uh, they yeah, they had like a dead man fied clan there.

And all the other week hit, there was a cool place, but I think it's got now ever been there, people in california. But amy's dad also had numerous sinker or secret tunel. Bubba a, i've never seen, i've never personally seen these tunnels.

They were locked up. But amy has informed us that there are bulletproof vest stored inside. That man is in the FBI CIA hundred percent.

This is not relevant to the story, but IT helps at the scene and vibe of the house in area we were at leading up to this. My friend had told this a handful of times how strangers had shown up lost on her property. Most had been illegally hunting the land, not knowing that was private property or college kids fucking around. So random people showing up was not uncommon. However, they were quickly taught a lesson by her dad.

The clown .

attack happened outside. We were sitting on her travel in one of those with the net around IT. We were discussing deep topics as middle school are do. The only light nearby was a fake low from the back porch light.

The house was a good way away from the trap in her backyard was large, who was almost a semi circle of cleared land edged by thk dark woods. Sick cuse me, amy, Sarah and I were sitting in a sort of triangle formation. The two of them, we're sitting facing me, and I was facing them as we were talking.

Something caught my eye over their shouders. Keep in mind, I have terrible eyesight and consistently boycott wearing my glasses. So IT was hard to make out what I was seeing.

Your eyesight is going to get worse, baby. A glint of something White had shifted in the woods, which was a very good distance away. At first I just assumed IT was a wind shine or something, but my friends had noticed that I had gone quiet.

They add me questioningly. I think I saw something White moving in the woods over their whisper. They turned to look behind them, squinting for a moment.

We were all silent, observing the entrance to the woods. Then I saw again, IT seemed to be passing the edge of the woods outside of the of the cast of the dim light. The portrait was giving off.

Sarah, a gasped. Her hand was trembling, jay, i'm not kidding. I see something red too.

At this point I was appeared to all of us that there was something alive moving in the woods. We stood from our spotts consciously. I'm sure it's nothing, amy assured us.

We watched as the black figure crept out from the shadows and oh my gosh, with a labor breath. Seracs guys, IT was red hair. IT has IT has IT .

was I like, guy, I saw what I was, red hair. He was just not all that guys .

that was red here.

I think the ones was, I just picture in like, you know, reka like the hand and out of his family, just like group on around just right there. It's there is good, if has right there.

I can't breath. And became clear that a full as cloud was in the woods and was approaching us. Maybe you Better run so far away.

He was in a black look like outfit. His mask was a hunting, almost blank face with dark and eyes and a cricket smile. Chunks of red hair spotted his head as he stepped out of the woods.

We screamed while amy inserted, I just kind of stood there. He tilted his head, observing us. He placed the edges of pondering his victims. He was still in good ways away at this point. At this point I was thinking he was perhaps a fucked up college students. As multiple college students have wondered out of the property before, i've forgot to mention that they have a well known abandoned how on their property as well that people like to visit without even thinking. I began to shouted at him, this is private property.

I love your truth.

You're that property. Mother folker friends were home to the .

edge of the talian hugged each other in periodical, screaming, whatever he moved. You need to leave.

Do you want to be arrested? I scream at the approaching clown free. As the clouds slowly cropped .

out of the woods, he sporadically turned his head to the side, as if he observing his victims again. I heard amy winter something beside me, clearing her throat as SHE repeated her inaudible sentence a bit louder. Inky has a knife.

I wiped my head back to the clown. And sure enough, in his hand, the clown was clutching a long butch knife. Clinton, in the low light.

My friends clung to each other. sr. Had fat tears rolling down her cheeks, I cleared my throat and continue dealing my empty threats. Do you really think that this is worth jail time? It's not too late to turn around .

and leave fucking queen.

But this good, he was not having IT. He was making his way closer and closer. We were too far from the house to run to IT. He went, have gotten us by then, Sarah, and was zip up the trap in. I commanded what just do IT. I don't know what I was thinking, but I guess I thought I would save us like thirty seconds of life if you were to take the time .

zipped to get to us. And night .

zero zero, a zipped up, he was now at the edge. He, his dark guys taking us in. Then this bitch went down slowly and went under the trapline, under the trampin.

What a fucking did q and do .

not read further. I'm not to do read for o sr, and amy were screaming for their life. He had a knife and can potentially cut through the trap in or status from underneath. But I only had one thought in my mind, jump on his head.

This was my saving us.

I started like, if you jump on, like, what if he sticks the knife up and you jump right on the knife that.

I mean, that's terrible. But like, what the fuck is know .

because he said I started to run where he was. Jae, what you doing? Amy called after me. I prepared my leap. I was at least going to make this clown regret messing with us before before he killed us. But as I ran over him and jump to land on his head, he came back up from under and he pulled off his mask and IT was ai's dead the end.

Are you fucking kidding me? What the fuck is wrong with me is dad?

What fuck is .

wrong with me's dad? I'm going to go on the record and say, sir, what the fuck is wrong with you? He was said, that is, my husband did that to my children.

I would divorce him. What the fuck are you doing that years of fucker therapy right there, would you? What.

john.

not to be your children. And these are not my children. So it's not my number.

Kids never change up my problem. One of this is a whole lario, sly, horrific story. Why did he do that to you?

Because, you know.

that's unhinged. The I, that's unhinge ed behavior.

I don't know if you should be on the sea.

Oh my god, I love .

that show so much. Can you imagine going back home after me, like a with a knife, approached us from the inside of the woods and then crawled underneath the tribal in them, was like, L, J.

Y stuff. I would like, yeah, you're not baby. I would file charges. I don't know what kind what I file.

Do you remember though this is the same year that all the coins were coming out of? That would work .

to remember, joan, remember? I mean, he didn't dress up at least. No, he didn't. But one day, I think we're probably told this way I talking about you all the crazy clown ship going on in twenty sixteen and you'll .

get to that jail.

I think you'll get .

to that jab when .

you she's .

going back in time yes.

IT, i'm so sorry was like I understand guy.

my grandma we were talking .

about IT one night you're get to that. Jee.

and then john, he like.

went to walk back up. And when he came back, he explained on the right down, right where I was sitting, so my self into the dining and .

he left and hard and like, that man loves .

that catering. He does.

And usually, honestly, he's not that other really going on yeah, but not when he does. IT though.

H man, man, jade, jade, that was great.

Well, thank you all, and we love you aren't hello, beautiful ladies. My name is mary. Feel free to use my name in any others I mention. I want to profess this with the fact that this will likely be a bit long. Insert apologies that I don't really mean here.

I'm from a small town in youtube, but don't let the fact that I live in you to for you into thinking that my life has been simple or boring, because that has been anything but. And I have so many crazy stories to tell, from an accidental near death experience or multiple to multiple different and explicable paraNormal s ones. Today i'm going to tell you two stories that are not my own, but don't threat.

I have many of my own that I may write down in sand. You guys in the future, if you'd be interested, please, we are always interested. I want to start by saying that I love your podcast for many reasons.

Thank you. But a huge reason is because of the completely an ugly, accepting environment you amazing women have created that makes me happy. As I stated before, I grew up and still live in a small and exam, extremely religious city in utah, being someone that has always been incredibly into anything fantasy, yeah, movies, T, V.

Shows, games and especially books, music that my peers considered strange at ghost. In october, I had a blue october. They are good.

Are things like the hall thriller and true crime genres. And I got forbid, shopped at hot time, but IT was more edgy. Hello, there is also the frequent usage of the fucker d and saying is not widely accepted here.

I was always somewhat of an outcast, and one of them, weirdos. I was told my passion for fantasy was child dish on a regular basis, and that my interest in true crime and similar jonas was creepy, among other color, fall in creative insults that's so terrible. You know what I say? Fucking know what I say? That sounds like you're fucking cool as hell.

Yeah, you are there. We are those mr, and and we love you. IT didn't help that i'm not subscribed to a certain religion that is wildly popular in my desert state, and that I was always open about the fact, excuse me, about that fact, and my interests that didn't quite fit into the standards of said religion.

Hey, to each their own, everybody can the fuck they want and let everybody believe whatever the fuck they want.

live and let them what I say, if you didn't already know, I can be considered incredibly taboo in certain highly religious areas of my home state to have more than one piercing in your ears, let alone have some on your face like idea, we'd all be fuck together. Don't even get me started on the dirty looks and even scrutinizing comments. And I get about my tattoos another, but I think they're beautiful. I have won that an hour room with beautiful flowers that's .

that's so beautiful.

It's excuse its meaning as a peace between a mother and a daughter that my mom and best friend and I got together as my first tattoo obsessive also you norwegian girl, we are heavily nor yes, you're heavily and and are genuinely obsessed and bracing.

Those .

beautiful blue eyeballs and those pictures loves and or I love you one of those I balls special, quite literally. SHE said that the entire time he was pregnant was like, I want blue. I balls of them .

have the gorgeous for .

really yeah or region, and are genuinely obsessed with the embracing our culture and always that we can yeah. However, I have had many strangers ask me things along the lines of, is that, say, tank or something?

We nor we like you being not rich. Are you saying, like, are those two things mutual excuse, use some other word, beautiful. That's why. jealous?

Yeah, i'm no region jealous. And plenty more things that are absolutely absurd for a stranger to inquire about the state is in all that bad. But it's definitely unique. And these are just my personal experience as an opinions here. My amazing mother always told me that your freak flag fly, darling.

and boy do I, with no plans of stopping, your mom .

is a yeah yeah.

To this day, she's never, never, never stop encouraging me to completely itself in all my interest, hobby and passions and anything else I love, from going with me to comics when I have no one else to go with, to listen to all my grants and theories about the most recent shows and movies are watching in books that i'm reading. I also have to give my best friend custody a shut up for playing a huge part in helping me in school and supporting me in all my nurdin and always reminding me it's never annoying, even when I feel like she's actually assisting me in writing this out because the second story is her grandma story. SHE is my partner in crime and my motion .

support that I love both of these people. I love all that. So cool. Your mom sounds so fucking cool.

That's a great mom. That's like the kind of them. Yeah, yeah. Well, yeah. Thank you.

I hope to be that kind of m and your best friend and sounds red too. yeah. Truly, i'm so happy that you have like them as support.

You need someone in your life, especially when you're like a nerd who hyper fixed some things like hello and people around you that like I like no, it's not annoying or weird I want to hear about .

IT well you need people people .

that don't want to hear about what they're not your first yeah and they really me they bum you out when you're the person who who's hype perfecting because they make you feel stupid. Actually like cool people around anyway.

that was a lengthy way of stating that I regularly felt like an outsider in your typical strange and quiet kid in school wasn't actually a regard to, but was often assumed to be. These last couple years i've been on a journey of really discovering who I am because i've been one hundred percent allowed to for the first time in my life.

Yeah, when I found your podcast and discovered the accepting of all, no matter what environment IT made, made me realize that I can find in people my own life as well. I love you. You guys played a big part in that. Even though you now have to read through a couple of unnecessary paragraphs .

of my life story before these details, I wanted you to know.

Thank you. wonderful. And it's nice to here. yeah. Like we created .

and that like what we're wanting to say, coming across how we .

want to say IT, exactly, exactly.

I like you. I thought you would want to do that.

What you guys do truly does mean a lot to many people. You're gonna for many reasons you may not have even to realized. And even if you don't read this on the podcast and you see IT so you can at least read that, I also thought you would need some back story as to why your loving environment, not so much to me.

So thank you for reading, and thank you for helping me realize that being interested in these things is Normal. Yeah, that is. I'm also realizing, as I write this, that IT was a long wounded way of telling everyone in the morbid universe who, my favorite stranger thing character, I bet I know, although he wasn't my favorite until he made a lord, the ring's book reference in the woods, because same and words same.

Now, somebody whose bookshelf is mostly fantasy y and who makes strange fantasy references, people usually don't understand this folk to me, on a solution level, all right now that i've accidently rambled on a bit too long, let's get into the story. You did not remember at all. That was amazing.

The crazy story of the time that my momma brother was nearly true. Crime in the nighttime by none other than than the informal rich of her, mrs. The knights stocker.

Yeah, you're read that right. Drunk me going to the phrase true crime in the nighttime and soberly has never stopped using. This is around the nights, the time, the night stocker was doing his household through crime things.

My mom was a cute little fifth greater living in california. My Young mother was obviously horrified about what could happen to her and her two siblings and her mother. Her dad didn't live with them, but honestly don't think anything.

We're too concerned about that hope. I have talked to her about this and all of her memories of the time which he still remembers vividly. I thought you guys might find an inside perspective from someone who was directly affected and traumatized by the horrible things this man did. Interesting SHE can still recall the voices of reporters on the news with startling accuracy and remembers almost every detail about the case, including the fact that IT was people in the neighbourhood not too far away from her own that finally took down that mother .

fucking living personification of greasy about water.

The best take down of a piece video is the best. I wish every criminal was come like that to california.

That was great.

Unfortunately, before he was taken down in an epic citizens arrest, my mom was not sleeping at name. He would stay up all nights staring into her backyard and watching the family dog to see if startled her. SHE assumed that if anyone were to try to break in, that the dog would be alerted. The fact that he was five years old and worried about the in, oh, fifth grade yeah, i'm silly. But either way, I mean, still so maybe you're like ten, you're like a eleven out of now.

You're so Young baby.

Now.

there was one ruy night that my grammer was out of the house for a little while. My ten or eleven in year old mom, I should have fun with that. First was staring out the window at the backyard.

Her eyes trained on the family sleeping golden, golden retriever. There was a stocky tree right outside of her bedroom window, and the leaves began to rustle. The only thing her Young brain could think of was that the noise had belong to the nights alker.

There was no other possibility that couldn't have been her black cat, puddy, who loved being outside in climbing trees. Of course, when in the state of current terror, in constant general panic, the human brain is seldom wire to think clearly. So he did what any terrified tennis your old kid would do.

And SHE probably called the police and told them that the night stocker was trying to break into her, rose, honestly, good for her. You know, you'd rather be sorry. Within a few minutes, the police showed up the night archer was nowhere to be found, but Better say, go over react, or in this case, serial murder.

The police said they're e diligence and searched the premises before clearing IT. But my mother's anxiety did not stop there, far from IT. SHE did not sleep for months because of her ongoing fears. If he were to show up at her how he wanted to know immediately so he could alleviate the rest of her family and hopefully keep them safe. Luckily, he never did show up at their house.

SHE remembers hearing about every single time there were new victims on the news and her terror rising, wondering of her family would be next af, seriously, one night, her older brother decided he was going to stay over at a friends house. This was a little worrisome for obvious reasons, but they promised to be safe. So my grammar located, you can imagine the horror of the next morning when they heard that the night stocker had struck again on the same street where my uncle had stayed the night before discover mirrors had struck on that street in the house that was right next door to the one my local had slopped over up.

There is some debate between my mom and grama, but whether IT was the house right next door, or if I was the one two houses to either way. But my mom says she's positive. IT was next door.

so will go with that. I believe, you know.

honestly, it's so fortunate that he didn't become a victim, but IT is extremely unfortunate that the next door neighbors did. My mom can't remember the name of the family that this did end up happened. Excuse me, that did end up his victims, but does remember that her family somewhat knew them.

Of course, we're also thinkless. He didn't choose the house milo was in, but it's weird to feel glad about IT because I was another family and people who also didn't deserve IT instead. That's so awful.

I know there are undoubtedly a lot of conflicting emotions there. It's like survivors. Skilled IT is yeah like a different kind of form of IT. My uncles now grown up to be a cop who has taken down some really awful things so big that he and his family had to go to a witness protection, which is part of the reason I, the only names i've given our me in my best friends.

that's my mom has .

grown up to be an amazing nurse who helped so many people in saying with my aunt, my 哥们 still around， and even though we don't know, I see I to eye, we do generally get along because they're all always there for me whenever I need them. I can imagine what would have happened if any of them had been the victim of that shit kicking .

ass and shit kicking asking is exactly what he was.

Loved that so much. Now, if you aren't tired of my writing yet, then I have another story about someone else I know who was almost true rimmed in the nighttime by infamous serial killer here in utah. His name was ted bundy.

You may have heard of him. Never heard no some back story to how I know this one. I met my current best friend close to six years ago when I was in junior.

When I was a junior in high school, I met her through a co worker, and a little bit later he became a co worker as well. We were acquaintances for a little while, and then IT wasn't long until we were best fucking friends. It's crazy health.

I went from thinking, SHE was a chill person. I wanted to know Better to suddenly knowing that if anyone even looked at her wrong, I would properly be ready to aggressively throw these hands directly into their face. These hands are a class two weapon, and I am not afraid to you.

yeah. Now back to the story. This particular evening. Bundi decided to wait for a victim in the parking lot of view mont high school in center ville.

Ja, this is about five minutes from where I lived. Now, hole ly, shit. That's crazy. My friend's grandma was going to draw practice at the school, which was her high school at the time. When he got out for the car, he approached her and gave his usual across the dusty lines about SHE books, his name, car SHE basically told him, sorry, I don't know anything about cars, got to go on late and continued hurrying into the school, if you've ever been on a drill team or met someone in charge of one, you know that they do not.

Was like, no.

like I late, I must go. I think even the most selfless and helpful person on this planet would not stop to help him if they were keeping the coach of a girl team waiting. Also get inside back school girl, fresh areas for that.

By the time he left, he was no longer there. Sadly, he did come back later that night and take a different girl from view, view on who did theater and was having home. After a school play.

SHE decided, I think deer cans. Yeah, only like seventeen years old. So .

when he was .

there, actually, if I remember correctly, SHE was picking up her brother from school. Yeah, I like from the play. I think he was, yes, the play was going on and he was picking him up.

I believe so sad and .

I think SHE SHE was one that um like he strAngely kept at his home for a little while. They don't know in exactly how long he was a very strange one .

he like such a weird yeah, like everything was like a little bit different, each strange. So it's just like sy, and so sad. Only seventeen I got, you're so Young, like your whole life.

I hope you well. When he heard about the missing girl, SHE immediately thought about the man on the parking law in the fact that the goal went missing from her school. SHE then remembers there was a serial killer at large and thought that was most likely him and could easily been her.

Once an intolerable buster was caught in his face was pastor all over the news, her groomer recognized him in the car they said he drove. SHE wasn't want to give any stranger the time a day because fuck people you don't know. But if he had simply been on time to heard droll practice, SHE could have been tended by victim.

That mate, again, i'm glad he wasn't his victim because I wouldn't have my best friend if he had been. But just like my uncle, it's hard to be completely glad when you know that someone else was still victimized instead, thank you. Ladies were taking the time to read this long fucking thing, and I hope that wasn't too longer.

Feel free to skip if I bore. Now, I love this stuff. Also know that I have not slept well. So things might be wild. Things are always wild.

These hearts, as you just saw, as you just third sate, Lucia said, to have lived in sissy between the years two eighty six to three or four. So if I get things wrong about the legend, just remember that i've never met the woman. Anyway, this dude, well, dio diocles .

well that die collision. But you know what, they gave me a good little like A K one of the last roman emperors who just didn't vive with ribe with Christian.

So he is that, yeah, they go.

He gave .

the order to burn all Christian books. Churches were to be .

torn and leaders of Christians were to be killed. Okay, energy. E study .

doesn't kill. Study should not .

kill as an an path. I think he did not like Christianity, but I don't know.

I feel like I go on a land there.

Our girl, Lucia name, meaning something the Carrier of light. Remember, this came from a relatively well off family work and was raised by a mother since her father died when he was Young, not work as a child, SHE took a lot of chaste and with SHE give to the poor and not something SHE told anyone, even her own mother. This ended up as a wee problem when he grew up.

And her mother wanted to marrier off to a man who was not Christian. But our girl was able to postpone the engagement every time while praying to god to save her from this marriage. Her mother, however, got sick with an incurable disease. So after some persuading by by Lucia, they went, not saying yet, they went to see a gott S I hope i'm saying this right grave to pray fer a cure. Saint active, i'm probably actis oh, here you go.

No, you can get .

my autograft to .

sign next to make you happen.

The foxes that come argueta .

argueta we all that arata yours .

I was .

to say nice .

to meet you too, mike. Just cause what has .

happened it's .

a preview for age twenty .

four movie so same egotist said, you've shown themselves to Lucia saying something like this. Why you asking me when your .

faith is already healed her .

and so her mother was healed and promise Lucia that he wouldn't have to get married. Instead, the dowry was given to the in need picture up. The suiter was real mad that he was rejected. Q iro, entitled on her to our guy.

guy sounds .

awesome. And luo was then arrested and tortured. However, he never gave up her faith.

SHE was then ordered to become a sex worker at a brothel. Not really how I would personally describe what happened. And SHE was to be taken to the brothel.

SHE was placed in this like cart thing. Can remember the english word for IT that was to be pulled by oxon's. IT was discovered that the cart was frozen to the ground, then boiling oil was instead poured on her, but he was not hurt.

Last attempt to kill her was to stabbed with the sod straight through her neck. But he did not die, not until someone came to do the annointed of the sick. Other versions of the legend include one where a man is set to a fall in love with her eyes, which prompted her to tear her eyes out and send them.

Want to try IT that that version of the story a bit energy.

I mean, like you have the most beauty and you just about him and then you .

rip them on.

they're on a and you like eat them if you think .

they are so beautiful, like my eyes. And now, apparently this made the .

man going get back to me that many reasons.

Apparently he was later given you even more beautiful .

lizer by a miracle.

So like, you rip your eyes out and then you get new one. Yeah.

we should .

use these up.

And then she's like, I would like to up in their eyes really.

Now, during the thirteen hundreds, and sweet and we celebrated lusa during one of the darkest nights in order to call for the light to scare off the evils in the dark. I love sweden today. We celebrate lusa in church and even in schools to this with your and I opened also, you know, who's from a sweden to ice, or yeah, with my .

sweetest .

schools.

All partitions of being children are dressed up in these White dresses. Could then they wrote question mark, with traditionally all the girls wearing reefs, Young kids usually wear reefs that are more Sparkly. Because why not tell and the guys where this can, looking hat with stars that sounds like a wizard hat is like merlin.

In kindergartens, you can sometimes see, even see, some kids dressed as mini santos or even ginger bread. Men, very good. Sucks anyways. All the girls also wear this red river around their waves that symbolizes the blood.

luci said for her face. That's a metal. And they say, I know, really metal. Everyone also Carry one little candle .

during the whole thing, electric ones for the kindle that smart. This also causes multiple people to faint every year. Also very metal of us.

And no one really does anything to stop. We bet like, why do you guys faint? No, I love that. They are also very meddle. They don't give you refreshing.

I know what really does anything to stop this question work. We just have buckets of water close by and tell everyone that if they feel dizen to blow their candle out for all, are all walking around with a little candle in a room together, it's getting hot. They are dressed in these things, IT says.

IT is wild, and in the very front of the choir is the lusa traditionally played by by a girl. But it's twenty, twenty three. So let's skip the boy versus girl things.

So yeah, the lush is dressed in the same White down in red ribbon. But instead of a reef, they wear this crown with like seven lit candles on IT. That's danger. Anyway, this lue require than things a bunch of songs. And then we, these really good saffron buns to celebrate.

Have you red saffron?

I have delicious is act to vibe with jesus. Never done that.

So two thousand and eighteen.

when I fifteen year old, was part of the local churches youth quire, I was to be that, yeah. Lusa, oh, wow. This was big for me since I had never been Lucia, after some kids said that I can be lusa since Brown means salem, and that I should be a ginger bread man instead.

And your racist bread.

And yes, I was a ginger bread man to Lucian kindergarden. Anyway, casual racism aside, I was hipe to be illusion. A lot of racism.

yeah. Gets you with you who can do both? Hell.

yeah. However, I also have a record of random health problems, and basically proof that, proof that survival of the fittest doesn't really work in a modern society, some of which include random dizen. Ss, and I never fainted in, at least for shadowing. This was obviously something we worried about.

So we made sure that during the performance, we had someone in the very front making sure that I don't faint and is ready with supplying me with water to drink and to make sure that I don't get turned into south asian barbecue by seven candles on my head. In this case, IT was a priest. And let me just say, SHE looked at me and kept moving her head around like we were in a one versus one.

Basketball was, i'm not. You go down the way we begin with.

The whole church lights out. They were like, I think, one hundred and two hundred people in the audience. So when everyone was ceded, we lit our candles and started of walking and singing.

All good, a bit nervous. But you know what? what? Dark church with only a few of candles, that, while we are singing, our whole show was also without any instrument, is a vibe.

We send a couple of songs all as well. The priest is still doing her little moves to check up. I was good, so I gave her a thumbs up.

But then I started feeling a bit warm, and soon I felt like the world was spinning. At this point, I was like, oh, this is not ideal. And I remember looking at the piece, still singing and just shaking my head to show all is not well anymore.

Then they all got dark when I opened my eyes again. All I saw was the blurry figure of a woman with long blond hair, smiling, looking down at me. And behind her, I saw jesus on the crucial fix in this bright light.

tough. At this point, I remember thinking, well, I guess i'm dead. Jesus, in a Angela here to collect my soul. I was also confused, not by the fact that I had apparently died, no, no, no. But because, as I may have failed to mention earlier, I am, how hard did I die to see someone .

else's god?

Why was I A boot st in a Christian quire? I don't know. I was just living, but was I not supposed to be reincarnated that I turned the wrong corner in the afterlife? Oh, during this confusion, the Angel began speaking to me.

SHE said the convoys, hey, honey, do you know who I am? I was silent since, well, you know me dying and ending up in Christian heaven, like where buda SHE then laughs a bit at my silence before saying, no, of course not. We've never met before.

Okay, then why do you ask me? I mean, you'll not get some kind of training from god before doing this. Like, how can you be underfunded in heaven? I can take being dead like a chill, but you all not have a functional working system up your damn during my.

during my mental .

tyring the Angel levin says you fainted or alive chill. I fainted. That's neat. Never done that before.

I'm a alive chill .

in life, is like the least chill ever.

But I ve, I fainted that's neat. Never done that before. Turns out the Angel was like a doctor, something that was apparently in the crowd. And the light was just the ceiling lamps that were turned down after I faint.

Also, you like you came to so you thought you died.

but this was really just you .

coming to and laying the lec oh so so you're still booted. So they said it's just .

the ceiling limbs that were turned on after I fainted. Well, what I saw as jesus was just chilling was the crucifix that home from the ceiling where in the church, while my vision was almost completely back to Normal, I finally started to notice that the show was still going on. Everyone was still singing.

And when the current song was done, my quiet teacher ran up to me and ask, you want to rest or do you want to keep going? I, as the rational person I am in, knowing that a boy i'm still dizzy, said, yeah, sure. Let's keep going. Oh, go. You can stop a day from a slay.

fucking iconic, iconic.

As I got helped up, I noticed that they had removed the crown. Apparently, as I painted, my quiet teacher was able to run up and scoop up the crown before I hit the floor. Honestly, very impressive.

As I stood up, I felt the priest putting on the crown. I heard the sound of my teacher using the lighter to light the candles, which I did not know they were going to do since IT all went so well the first time. But in for a penny, in for a pound of us.

When all the campus were lit, a man in the audience sealed out hurry for the lusa and started deploying ding. And with that confidence boost, I decided that I would make IT through the show, candles on fire or not. And so we kept singing.

And after the show was done, I was dead proud of myself. I got some minor. What are you doing? Sit down and rest.

This is the last time you're allus a for my friends. But the adrenal kept me alive and full of energy. That day I got lots of huggs from random people in the audience saying that they were so proud of me.

And honestly, writing this, I still am smiling by the kindness of everyone who is there. And apparently, from what I heard, I fainted, very elegant, a dramatic back of my hand to my forehead and all, oh, thought for a few seconds. Some thought for be second IT was part of the show because I was so theatrical.

So at least I kept slaying till very can stop a day from a slag. I love, I love that they.

but this may not have been the Normal crime or supernal natural listener tae, but hey, I thought, believing I saw the wrong after life was close enough, they were absolutely. I hope you enjoying reading IT. And if not, I included another file in my male with an attempt of animating one of my favorite melbourn moments. And I always keep IT weird, but not so weird. Do you think you .

I'm going to read my next list or tail, how a button knife and my friends manly yell probably saved my life. What's go just being in? sure. I can read them so I can.

Hello.

weird dos. My name is rally. Feel free to use my name and the names in the story. I have attached a double space put of her to this email.

Also, do people really write puta? Or do you just read puta as part of her? I need to know. Yes, I read P, D, F as poof her. And when people write put of her, I read IT as part of her. So basically, no matter what you say, we'll say put of a anyways, I will absolutely freak out if this gets read on your podcast. I've been listening for years and absolutely adore you guys.

Your woody banter in humor has been almost paying my pants and laughing out loud to myself, which often created my fiancee when I have airports in, because IT just sounds like a rinda ly laughing, standing in middle the kitchen and realizing that last sentence that might not make sense. So let me explain that we live in a hospital in eighteen ninety five, and some very creepy stuff has been happening. My fiancee came up to me the day after we moved in and said, why did you just say my name? I called, said I did not. I was on the other side of the house and he says someone .

or something buki just .

whispered his name right into his ear. We're both about popped our pants and the weird stuff has continued. My fiancee has always said he will believe in ghosts once he experiences something, and boy has the. So I kind of with the spooky stuff, as long as that makes them finally realize that go spirits, or whatever you want to call them are real. I just keep talking out, lad, to the ghost.

Please just let me know what you need in a non creepy way and I can do IT for you and enough of the creepy whispers ing and knocking things over when I and enjoying some of that sweet Green washington hern. If anything major happens, I will be sure to write in again. But as of now, I think that IT is a nice ghost.

anyways. That is not what the stories is about. So let's get into IT. How a butter knife and my friends manly yell probably saved my life.

I met my best friend hand during my freshman year of college at the university of arizona. We both didn't love the college or the vibe. So ha, way through our first year, we said screw IT both applied to study I brought in or veta, italy. Oh, that sound nice. I hope I like that.

Okay, cool. Thanks for the .

first semester of south forum. That's for a few months, and we've got accepted to study abroad, and we were work when no end. We are working at summer jobs in order to pay for all the amazing things we were about to experience.

In italy, we were only one thousand and some one of the main things we were excited about was that we could legally be able to drink. Well, I mean, seriously, when we landed in room, the first thing we did was go to the bar and get a drink before even checking if our train was schedule. But I digress. So we get to or via to my hope. Can you look .

up for me though you're welcome .

or vial? I like, I don't know if in italy .

really you are like that.

So I want so we get to .

or via to right?

Yeah via to go yeah. And we meet all our remains and our loving, experiencing the culture, food and people in the small town of orbital. During the month of october, we got a fall break, which meant we got two weeks off of school to travel and experience life abroad.

A remain, Allison, mean hanna, all decided that would be fun to travel to greece for part of our fall break. We would, we would first fly to athens and stay there for a few nights. And then from athens we would find a Megan OS.

We booked our airbnb airbed bees for both athens in Megan OS. And before we knew that we were on our flight to athons, when we got to athens, we had to take a train from the airport where we were staying. And this was a chAllenge because none of us could speak or read greek.

But after a few hours, we finally figured that out, were stepping off the train into beautiful. No, not beautiful. We were stepping into, what we did not know at the time, was one of the most dangerous neighbor.

Ods increase. great. awesome. I was dark, and we pretty much sprinted to our airbnb from the train station and did not leave until the next morning to go into the actual town of office and explore, talk to you.

Nothing bad happens in athens. Even though would have been made, even though would have made more sense based on where we were staying. Now it's time to go to micon OS macondo mean OS IT just reminds me of wasn't that we're winsey low hands, fucking god, demand reality show us.

Was IT wasn't IT like the one that he had with M. T. V? I never finished watching IT, but I think IT wasn't me.

I don't think I ever actually watched that. I only listen to I can.

I love that show. I think IT wasn't me. A ose.

So we got on our plan to fly from maths to mean ose. I'm in discipline. And then we find our beautiful airbnb.

It's a ground level studio that opens up to the blue and White cobble stone streets of greece with blue short utters. And we basically realized we are living out our mommy and dream. And celia, that's awesome.

The studio is one room, and in that room is the kitchen in an area for three twin beds. Then there's a little door off to the side where the bathroom is. The kitchen is near the front door, and there's a little sink with chatters above IT.

Now IT is important to note for the story that most windows in greece are just shuts two shutters on the inside and two on the outside that hooked together. There is no glass. So we're settling into our airbnb and it's about eight P M.

When we decide we should go out for some drinks, we start walking around the town and find this bar that's right on the water. When we walk in, there's a small wedding party going on. They're handing up free drinks to everyone and blasting mam I iraq.

saying at this bar .

was an obvious and easy choice. All three of us are having the best time drinking, meeting people from all over the world and just dancing the night away around winning them. We decided that it's time to go back to our airbnb.

So we head out after walking for a minute. We kind realized we are not too sure how to get home, but the island is small, and we generally know where our places we keep walking in. Something in my god tells me to turn around when I do.

I see a man walking just far a nough away from us, far away enough from us to notice him. He shouted at us, high girls, do you need something just like that? No.

he just came to girls. He's increase. And high girls.

do you hear that? And greece and ron, but not greece, I don't know. I just want to to like that. My murder brain immediately jumps in an action.

I say, no, we are fine, screw the thank you and being pull out, there's no room to be nice but dark and you're kind of lost in a different country. bye. So we keep walking and are chatting to each other.

When I turned around again and the man is still behind us, we know where we are now. There are only about one one minute from our place. And my god was telling me, don't show him where you look.

Well, yeah, you got IT. There's a corner coming up. And as I turned to take IT, I yank both of my friends by their shirts around the corner, and we crowed, ed dowbly, a small wall, the high, good for you.

The man walk passed us. We realize our front doors directly across from where we are. Once the man is at a sight, me and my friends run to the front door, unlock IT and go inside.

My heart is racing. Hand a goes to lay down in one of the bends beds. But I suggest to alison that we barked the door in the windows.

So if he somehow saw where we live and tries to get in, then all the stuff will all over and wake us up. So mart, very mart. So we stack our suitcases and chairs in front of the front door, and then we stack plain cups in front of the window above the sink.

That's so I really smart. I think my mom did in boston, bost string was around.

I was just thinking that and to think of that like after a night of drinking is especially and like i'm very impressive. We also agree that we should grab some type of defense tool from the kitchen. But when we begin looking for something, all the airbnb has a broken butter knives.

Butter knives. I can't even cut button straight out of the fridge with a butter if, but it'll have to do so alone. And I grab the button nives setting one next to peaceful ly sleeping hanna.

And we get into our beds. We decided to keep the light on because that that was scary. And after about thirty minutes, we will fall asleep on four. I, I wake up, and here a noise IT sounds like the shutter above the sinker banging against each other. I decide to wake all and up and and I say, hey, do you hear that noise?

IT sounds like the shutters are moving, she's half of sleep and says, as I just the wind in my mind, i'm thinking that the wind we just got followed home. And barkat, the dark fear, but also he could be right. And i'm party paranoid.

So I get back in to my bed and keep my eyes locked on the shutterless above the kitchen sink. As I do, the banging gets louder, and I see them began to shake in and out of the window slop. This time I spring out of bed with my button knife and shake Alice in a wake.

SHE immediately looks at the shutters and goes, okay, probably the wind. We both quietly and slowly walk over to the shutters. Alison in front. Immediately behind her, our pitiful butter knives are held up near aries and Alice and oau, excuse me, and Alice and opens the shutters.

You went from a to ears.

ears.

It's like easy.

But when you .

really have to pronounce in ARM, for some reason, IT does go like other that it's hard.

the per hard, and I must .

go there. How we throw our window is the man who fell at us home with a black scheme mask all over the space that killed them. We love guys. And my friend Allison.

lets do that. I have. So baby was her that was saying Better earlier a moral high ground. I was alson.

Just make sure you see .

this intruder and your window.

you're like flow.

Face went along with that, just maybe spit everywhere. No man, the man freezes, then quickly backs out of the shutters. And 光镜 i was when I live， the shutters closed, didn't run to grab our phones as a wake.

At this point, we're all pretty much shitting our pants. We we screw you make for me gree. We had a love that bet as Alice son calls the police with the language barriers making an impossible for them to know where we're located.

The police simply say that they're on their way and hang up at this point. It's about four thirty am. I face time, my mom, to let her know it's going on and SHE is freaking out, but also calling me down.

I start to feel sick, partially because my hangover is starting to make an appearance and partially, partially because i'm traumatized. And I threw up in the track. I want to, honestly, thirty minutes later, the police still aren't there.

So we call them back and they ask us if we can go outside in the dark to try to find them. I grab the phone. IT was not in this moment and started yelling at them to free can find us before the man comes back and that, no, I will not be going outside when he could be waiting right there.

Honestly, your finest moment. Now all the police says that i'll continue to try to find us. We all set on the bed waiting for them to arrive, keeping in contact with our family.

When the police finally do arrive, IT is A M A A M IT took them over three hours to find us when we were literally in the heart of mechanical s wow. That's sub setting. When they get there, they ask us questions, and we try to explain what happened to the best of our ability.

When we finally go outside, we see a huge black footprint on the window platform where he tried to come in you. That's terrifying. They take our statements and leave, saying theyll updated us if they find anything we never heard from them again.

awesome. After the police left, we notified the airbnb host about what happened, and he was just an Angel. SHE gave us a full refund.

Apologize previously, saying that nothing like this has ever happened at the airbnb and even recommended a safe hotel on the island, one a mom bear. We got out of that airbnb so fast and went to check into the hotel that night. In the hotel, we barrick everything again, just in case, and all slip tottle together.

We ended up staying in maconie and if is still is my favourite, I visited while studying abroad. So don't let the story stop you from going. Maybe just know where your urban b is and get home before when I am go.

I'm still left wondering what he wanted us, our passports? money? Who knows? All I know is screw that.

I truly, honestly, when we got back home from studying abroad, I got broken into two more time. No, I was not drunk. Yes, the doors were locked.

Yes, I was being sparing safe. I guess I just attract to this stuff. I've got a therapy for real.

I've gone to therapy because having this happened to you three times, masses with you add and i'm happy to say that i'm doing Better. Glad we got a dog. Her name is Daisy and SHE makes me feel so safe.

You got Better.

They know you'll find people up for you. SHE actually scared the guy off during the second break and go. I included because of her in my two other Kitty cats, as well as the footprint on the next page. Also, we got, we just got simply safe. And I love that help.

Yes, any who, I hope you enjoyed my tail and thank you. Take IT away.

ash. Keep IT wear. But not so weird you trying to live out your mom, me, a dreams that a creepy men follows you home and all you have to defend yourself as butter nives and the police don't find you for over three hours by.
