Listener Tales 72 | Morbid | Forensic Files

hey weirdos I'm Ash and I'm Elena and this is Marvin [Music] [Applause] [Music] it's a listener turn oh which means it's
brought to you for you by you from [ __ ] it's brought to you by you for you from
you and All About You Now that we don't do them every week I don't know what the
[ __ ] to say ah but here's your treat this is our treat it's everyone's treat it's just a treat treat treat say treat
again treat uh yeah so it's a listener tale and I feel like it's been a hot second I know
I'm like so excited we haven't done them for a month I know I I miss doing them more often but you know that's the way
the cookie crumbles and here we are we're doing one so today we're gonna be doing a theme it's dreams and astral
projections now you might be like what but that's how it is yeah but remember when I told you guys that I asked people
in my dream what day it was and everybody got real mad at me and it was real weird well some of you have also
had similar experiences with lucid dreaming and I am so fascinated with dreams and lucid dreaming there's I feel
like there's something more to it that we can't understand I kind of think that like you go to a different realm when
you're dreaming I kind of love that I think you might last night in my dream John did stand-up comedy that's very
true and that it's another realm that's another [ __ ] although I think he would be a great stand-up comic because
he has a great voice for it he does he does y'all love his voice it's true I do too like I'm that's why I'm hearing it
but that's it that's the only reason voices the space is great too but like his voice A-Plus a plus shift keys so
I'm gonna do the first one and the first one is called wow I'm just kidding wow toxic I'm bullying you stop bullying me
this first one is entitled me and my kid had the same Nightmare and lucid dreaming glitch in The Matrix so this
one says PDF attached old school smiley emoji I love that and I totally forgot to say my name but it's Molly LOL it's
fine to use thank you Molly hey pod gurlies first of all I'm going to do the mandatory fangirl thing I'd
say you can skip this part trim it down Etc but we all know what you'll say never and she wrote that I wrote this
one time with just the glitch part but at the time I was pretty new to The Listener tale portion of the Pod for
some reason I really slept on the listener Tales at first a lot of people did yeah and that's okay because you all
came and you all said wow I slept on that a lot of people like to sleep on the listener Tails it's true you know
but now that I've come to the light I'm resubmitting with Times New Roman size 14 double space PDF for your eyeballs
viewing pleasure not a girl look at you Wally also I can't remember if it was Ash or Elena who said this but I was
listening to one of your pods recently on that spooky dookie Romanian hell forest and one of y'all said through it
was me one of y'all said you thought the words to Radioactive was you ready to rock you that was Ash OH my
sash well I thought it was ready how did you think it was thinking we already know how I feel
ready I love that oh and my late husband the live obviously alive at the time I'm so
sorry was like the song title is literally radioactive we knew that Molly we knew but we didn't care so anyways
you're not alone we were like why is this song called radioactive I love it ready know how I feel or ready to rock
you so that said obviously I lost my husband I'm so sorry big hugs coming your way
before his death I was a major True Crime junkie for a while after he died it was sudden I'm the one who found him
and I had to call 9-1-1 and all that fun new trauma [ __ ] oh my God I I know we
just said I'm sorry but like holy [ __ ] that's I can't imagine I'm so sorry I couldn't really stomach True Crime death
related things or 9-1-1 calls which was just not like myself as a tried and true
true crime junkie I don't blame you at all no I don't either and to be honest I still don't like 9-1-1 calls that's why
we honestly we don't really we never put the audio to them because I think that's
a really vulnerable time in someone's life is making a 9-1-1 call it's one of the
worst things you'll ever have to do and even like transcripts of them every once
in a while we'll talk about but they bum me out it's sad because it really is you're looking at the worst moment yeah
of someone's life yeah so I get that your pod helped me get my feet wet after he died and ease back into one of my
biggest interests while keeping it lighthearted and respectful and I love that about you guys so much thank you
that's like a really big compliment it is I know that shit's heavy to share but sharing heavy [ __ ] here really do be the
brand so Ayo but yeah I just wanted to share how much y'all helped me get help me in getting me to feel more like
myself after the hardest thing I ever went through more more recently I was diagnosed with this ultra rare Pokemon
of a metabolic genetic thing called cpt2 which makes me super weak and causes heart issues blah blah blah I did not
say that that's in the actual writing yes Don't Cry For Me Argentina I'm so sorry that you're having to deal with
this though no and anyway now I'm getting some treatment yay in less week in trying to get into the gym and me a
lard ass same thoroughly looks forward to the gym because you live in my ear holes for an hour and I get endorphins
dopamine win-win I love you and good for you you man yeah it's hard to motivate it yourself it's really harsh I ain't
gone in about two weeks and it's hard to motivate yourself anyways but motivating
yourself when you're going through the trauma that you went through and also dealing with a lot of like some disorder
that you're dealing with that makes you weak I can't imagine exactly and it sounds like you have a kid and
that's a whole other set of stressors and like busyness you know essentially Molly we think you're the baddest [ __ ]
essentially Molly the baddest [ __ ] anyway enough about my trash pile we all got one let's give the people the weird
[ __ ] they came here for recently I caught the listener tale tale where y'all were talking about lucid dreaming
by accident and I remembered that you said to ask the people in your dream the date and time in your dream if you do
lucid dream by accident and to report back well Flash Forward to January 10 2023 in the year of Our Lord that's
Drew's birthday I love that in the year of Our Lord I had a dream and I that's how I know you're our people like just
like just the way you wanted you talk oh yeah I had a dream and I actually Lucid
dreamed which I typically don't do but I guess I was doing so because hey yo I had a kidney infection that had me
waking up four times a night to pee and was disrupting you girl's rhythm in a big way
[ __ ] worst perfect storm for lucid dreaming 0 out of ten do not recommend trying at home so for additional
contacts before I actually get into this dream I feel like it's important to note
that I have a desk job and Stream True Crime slash spook pods eight plus hours a day while I work commute in the shower
for leisure Etc and never have nightmares not even after hours of streaming Jack the Ripper content if you
know you know or a file as I like to say I also need to provide some context that
will make sense later as a teen I was sent to one of those make your troubled kid better camps that abuse kids
I was held there for over two years in Wyoming and it was all around it was a it was all around an awful time filled
with abuse and physical punishments that's awful I've healed that part of my life and
haven't had nightmares about it in a couple of years this happened over a decade ago you truly are like a badass
you are to get through all you have that's why we crowned you side note Elena I had a hardcore run-in with a
moose while I was there oh my God me and the Moose had a yelling contest to decide who got to keep the camp I won
and didn't get speared by a moose so again this was a win-win oh my God you get better and better Molly line by line
what the hell so back to the dream I dreamed that I was working in a daycare I've never been a daycare worker I am
but a lowly insurance agent LOL but I was and I am a new employee at this daycare but I recognize some of the
faces there no one's significant but the one that stands out is just some random
girl I worked with two years ago who smelled of cat pee and had clickety-clackity nails and a Jack
Skellington backpack slash purse for every occasion formal or otherwise huh I love that what what a gal what a gal I
realized I was dreaming and in my dream we were locking up the daycare and walking outside some employee these were
almost were already almost at their car but I was bringing up the rear with a couple of others who were showing me how
to lock up I got outside the daycare and looked around and said to the people nearby me what's the date and time
the people stopped in their tracks and were like why do you need to know at this point I was like nah Y'all
[ __ ] be shy very loudly loud enough for the other people already at their cars to hear me
does anyone have the dates and time and everyone stopped in their tracks and walked back to me slowly like freaking
zombies or Bots or some other third thing that is spooky dookie and undesirable I looked around again and
repeated at a normal volume what is the date and time at that point the person I used to work
with looked at me and their neck and head twitched to the right like a malfunctioning robot and said you can
give me 10 push-ups for asking that what this was extra strange because this is something that would be said back at the
teen camp I went to as a kid in Wyoming my body did the warm I didn't do the push-ups good for you I just challenged
firmly why won't anyone tell me the date and time one of the employees looked at
a clipboard and said it's on the list and another person looked at me and said she's not on the list and then I woke up
in a cold sweat about to piss myself that is spooky what the [ __ ] part of me wonders if it's a nightmare just because
of having remembered what was said in the podcast but also I listened to Spooky pods far more gruesome on the reg
and never have nightmares about the content so I feel like I just real life pissed off the simulation I think so
that's what I felt I think so because I didn't feel like it was just something seeping into my subconscious no I'm sure
it seeped in for me to ask but the response was too strange it was in your case you didn't even know like what the
response was gonna be yeah like I didn't want to know and I the only thing that I
heard later was somebody got like a even weirder response and my response was more just like people getting angry at
me right and then I kept switching into other like scenarios and I just and even
John got angry at me in my dream when I asked him weird I want to do it yeah if you thought that was weird hold on to
your butt cheeks sisters it gets weirder Holden for context on the second story about my weird ass dream Encounters this
happened a couple of months after my husband passed away he passed in the bed in our home so I had moved a new bed
into the living room so I couldn't because I couldn't bring myself to go into the bedroom my girls were sleeping
in their bedroom again at this point and it was a caddy corner to the doorless bedroom that was not in fact a bedroom
additional context I have no bigger fear than snakes when I was in Wyoming I was
almost bitten by more rattlesnakes than I can count I live in Florida and I've walked outside to find snakes sunbathing
before and have noped all the way back in my home and jumped onto the kitchen table behind a closed door with the
snake outside for safety this is not a she is not a Slytherin Mishi [Laughter] I'm a Slytherin girl I am not anyway I
fell asleep aren't you a Hufflepuff sure am anyway I fell asleep like any other night that I can recall from those days
and drifted off to sleep in my dream I saw my youngest daughter Ireland oh I love that that is a
beautiful name the way you spell it is really cool I love that oh that's really pretty then four standing in front of me
we seem to be in some type of dense jungly Garden she was almost glowing just angelic-like
and precious parental bias aside out of nowhere a python slithered into view and
began to approach Ireland as though it was sizing her up and it prepared to strike detaching its job oh my God right
as it began to Lunge I dove in front of Ireland because you're a mom hell yeah reached my hand out and grabbed the
massive nope noodle by the neck obsessed dope noodle I love that in my dream all
I could see was fangs and jaws and I jolted awake in a cold sweat that's really scary now I'm a spiritual person
I've had many instances of premonitions or encounters with Spirit especially my Hubs who still hangs around for chats
and a joke every now and then when a dream is significant I feel like it just hits different and this one hit
differently I know exactly what you mean like you can't really describe it but it
does it's not a different vibe to it no sooner than I sat up in bed and began to
process I heard the pitter patter of tiny feet running through my gaping door hole and pouncing onto my bed I Marilyn
said I had a nightmare and crawled under my covers I snuggled her clothes and said me too nugget do you want to talk
about it oh she thought about it for a moment then said no do you I smiled and said no I don't think so maybe another
time oh well we eventually drifted back off to sleep and went about our routine for the day the kids loaded into my late
husband's car affectionately referred to as Bessie then eventually Bussy then still later struggled on me
we cranked struggle busy a few times and proceeded with school drop-offs work school pickups returning back to our
house we didn't speak of the night before or our nightmares we just went about our day
as I was cooking dinner Ireland said to me I had a nightmare last night I stopped cooking and sat down on the
kitchen floor to be at her level asking do you want to talk about it you're such
a good Mama I know like being at her level and stuff like he was a really good Mama and she said yeah I think I'm
ready now I asked her to tell me what was bothering her and she whispered I had a
dream about a snake chills I hugged her and said oh no what happened with the snake and Ireland
replied the snake was about to eat me then you saved me with your hands and a big push oh my God
I still have no idea what this dream means it feels super significant but I have no idea what to make about it and I
think about it often I don't even know how to effectively segue here other than saying thank you so much for reading
this if it makes it on the Pod I will caca my pantaloos guys and thanks for brightening my day
thank you for brightening our day oh and here's a follow-up Shameless plug y'all
and fall inspired me to start a podcast with my best friend Toby we are pre-recording now and can be found on
Facebook and Instagram we are be called don't tell my therapist podcast oh my God or in the recording stages but we're
about to drop our first episode which we'll talk about Robert the world's most haunted doll and Carl tanzler the Doctor
Who mummified his patient and kept her in his bed for seven years there you go so keep it weird but not so weird that
but that's a weird thing you have the same exact dream as your daughter and then like you don't even know why and
you don't know what snake symbolize in a dream but I've Googled it for you and I'm gonna tell you in a second and then
just like don't keep it that weird um but apparently snakes symbolize a person in the dreamer's Life who
exhibits low dirty toxic or poisonous Behavior so it's maybe it's like you saved your daughter or even like saved
your family from some kind of like toxic Behavior look at that I wonder if like did you cut anybody out of your life at
that time or like oh I want to know or I don't know did you like avoid a job that
you were gonna take or like something yeah there has to be something you know also I just have to put this out here
because you provided us with some photos one the cover art for your podcast is magnafique I I would listen to that
without knowing anything about it that cover art is Elite I love that cover me so much Mikey look holy [ __ ]

my gosh and that means I think you did you must have done something that you didn't know you did yeah like to save
you and your girls from somebody or something that would have been poisonous this is from the cut it's as
if the dream was Terror inducing start with how the dream made you feel that will tell you how urgently you want to
identify the potential stressor in your life and address it a snake within a nightmare is a very good indication that
your subconscious feels there's a toxic person in your life that is an immediate
threat meaning their toxic Behavior has reached a point where your subconscious level has had it and it needs to slap
you into attention there you go I think that's what it is ma'am so take a look and also take a
look Queen Molly I'm excited to listen to don't tell my therapist podcast because holy [ __ ] I know let me see I'm

all so talented pppppppp lots of peas and an oi that was my cat on the keyboard he's helping I'll
leave it thank you thank you I love it when you mentioned wanting stories about glitches in the in time
this forgotten memory popped into my head and I figured I would share let me set the scene also ADHD brain warning I
feel that it's maybe 2017 and I was about 21 in my third year of college at a huge university I'm talking like 30
000 Underground that's big my major was Medicinal Chemistry because I wanted to be a
doctor at the time but [ __ ] that for real I feel that that's a lot of school I feel that as well not long after this
incident I incident excuse me I joined an ambulance crew and my goals changed because I realized I was an adrenaline
junkie you're a badass anyway there were huge lecture halls with many people in each class even the very specific stupid
math ones like this one class I was taking it was like analytical chemistry or something it's a normal day in
Buffalo the sky's gray it's still too cold to not wear a huge jacket and the wind is blowing your hair around and
numbing your face I'm there I walked from my little apartment to class which takes about 25 minutes I get
to the room where my lecture is held and take off my big coat and attempt to fix
my hair who am I trying to impress though these nerds so I forgot the hair and pull out my notebook oh so I forget
the hair and pull out my notebook with my frozen hands I forgot gloves again today I'm not one of those girls who
prints everything out and writes notes on the provided lecture slides from online that would be too easy I have my
blank notebook page and pen and take my own goddamn notes because my goddamn ADHD brain would never let me pay
attention otherwise it works for me and I don't know I'm not a doctor LOL I also
never know what day it is and I like to write the date at the top so I flipped to the last page with the notes and see
that the date was two days ago it's a Monday Wednesday type deal and today's Wednesday I scan the top of the
page for the date and my eyes stop on October 18th my brow creases and the world stops for a second that date seems
wrong I dig my phone out and touch the screen it is October 18th today oh weird I must have written the wrong date two
days ago so no big deal that's definitely something I would do I look down at the rest of the page and read
the first thing I wrote down just as the professor starts his lecture it is word for word the same sentence he
says but in my handwriting and I don't remember writing it what I'm big confused at this point y'all he goes on
and I already know everything he's teaching somehow and I already wrote notes for it even the tangents he goes
off on and the jokes he tells I somehow remember hearing what he references a show that will be airing a new episode
that night or the next night that I also watch and tell me why I have a memory of
watching it already I'm looking around the big lecture hall and no one else is confused this goes on and on and I'm
just following along with pages and pages of already written notes at this point I would be in a cold sweat I would
like I would feel like losing my [ __ ] there's even little pictures drawn in the margins like how all my notes are
the lecture ends and I turn to my friend near me and say wow that was weird he literally gave the same lecture on
Monday and she creased her brow and said what no he didn't that was all new to me
what I would cry I would just cry cry it's been seven days since I last cried but I would cry do we have a sign we
have a sign in the Pod lab to see how many days it's been since I've cried we're going on a week right now baby so
don't make me cry so don't make me don't make me cry Argentina so I turned the pages back to Monday's notes and there
they are different than today's I'm very confused but also pissed that I didn't need to be on campus today because I
already knew everything I didn't feel a Deja Vu feeling that I had experienced everything before and I don't remember
attending that specific lecture before either but I had all the knowledge and notes I would have acquired from going
that's a glitch in the [ __ ] Matrix yeah the [ __ ] it is I never want to experience a glitch not like that for
sure because I'll feel like I'll I had like gone around the bend or something so the rest of the day was also not
weird at all except for the show that aired the next day I watched it with a group of friends and I could recall that
I had seen that episode before even though it had never aired before what Walking Dead maybe nothing like that has
ever happened to me before or since I'm getting Goosebumps right now just thinking about it did I travel to a new
timeline or just pass through real quick and I don't know what's happening please
help maybe a Liz from another timeline was just trying to help a girl out with these notes God knows I needed it I'm
very connected to the spirit realm and very often have paranormal experiences but this was just very different I guess
I just pushed it down where all my other emotions go oh well and decided not to process it and then I eventually forgot
about it for years I figured no one would even believe me if I told them anyway so I've kept this one deep inside
until now hell yeah keep it weird but not to worry that you get to class I already have the notes because some
weird glitch in the time but you have no memory of actually taking said notes so
you really should just have stayed home I need to know what all that kind of [ __ ] is like I just need someone to be
like yep it's a simulation everybody but they won't but no one will tell you you
will never tell us no one will tell us it's scary it's scary bums me out I don't like it
oy well okay we're gonna move on because that's scary and I don't want to experience it I'm freaked out but we're
gonna move on to listener Tales alternate universe when my brother and I found a road that doesn't seem to exist
I am quite literally so excited so we're getting better it says hey all the name is Joseph feel
free to use it because this will absolutely earn me some big bragging rights if you choose to read it on the
Pod well rocking rights achieved there it is first things first I love the show your boy has ADHD that must be the theme
too it has frequent episodes of hyper focus of which y'all's podcast has been the subject of since last April of last
since April of last year excuse me coming up on a record time for my obsessions if you're wondering what
currently holds the record it's Hamilton OH same at some point I watched it on Disney plus with my family and then
started listening to it on Spotify during a 13-hour drive to Florida to work in the Everglades National Park
that's so cool we saw a pelican oh we saw a pelican kill itself there by jumping into a crocodile oh no but
that's a story for another day all right anyway I became obsessed with Hamilton memorized the entire thing word for word
learned pretty much every historical discrepancy between the musical and the actual life and events of Hamilton's
life my lovely wife even got me on the biography Cherno wrote that inspired lin-manuel Miranda
to write the now world famous musical and took me to see it in real life a couple years back she's really the best
she's real life all that to say that y'all really might beat my Hamilton's Obsession record hell yeah anyway I
realize I'm rabbit trailing here I wish for a while that I had to tail to send y'all so when you told us to send in
Tales of traveling to alternate universes I got extremely excited because I have a chance to talk about
this I posted this on Reddit on our glitch in The Matrix some years ago it's like a Reddit thread uh some years ago
and it ended up being talked about on a few YouTube channels posted on blogs and
no one really seemed to have a satisfactory explanation for it well [ __ ] I've attached the story itself on a
14 size double space per tradition enjoy I love you Joseph this is going to sound like a load of
Croc [ __ ] but I swear up and down that this actually happened about four years
ago closer to 10 now if you're reading this in 2023 damn I'm confused I lived in this fairly
small fly spec of a town at the time I lived there for about 12 years so I knew my way around our house was about a mile
and a half away from the nearest neighborhood our mom intentionally picked that house due to the lack of
neighbors your mom and I have that in common it was tucked away that was great uh it was tucked away on
a back road with the word Woods surrounding it every now and then I like to take walks with my little brother who
at the time was about 13. we decided just to do just that we headed up the road and decided to try a new path or a
new clearing that we hadn't discovered yet when we noticed something a little shocking just off the road that led
almost directly to the neighborhood there was a brand new paved Road no there wasn't every Road in that part of
town was gravel road so seeing an out of place paved Road was pretty unusual we stared at it for a while and came to the
conclusion that it must have been made within the last few days due to the modern but slow growth of the Town
however we had no explanation for how they did it so fast we decided to explore it a bit
I remember as soon as we set foot on the road the air became notably colder by at
least five degrees the road itself was a black pavement but no dividing lines it
was surrounded by some thick red trees that resembled redwoods but they were too short and non-native to our state
Southern Arkansas we walked on the road for about three miles until we decided to head back due to it getting dark when
we got off the road we felt the temperature go back up my brother and I agreed to explore it the next day
also my brother ever so kindly reminded me that I left off a key detail when I posted this on Reddit some years ago as
we as we were headed back something kind of odd ran across the road it stopped maybe 80 feet in front of us and at
first glance it looked like a deer but after a moment really we realized it was something else was it a not dear not
deer it had short dark very excuse me it had short dark far very large black eyes
and a mouth that looked for lack of a better description to human for comfort the body of a regular whitetail deer in
four long legs it briefly looked at us lifted itself onto its back legs most of the way sniffed the air and then booked
it into the woods that was a not dear that was a not dear my friend we had lived in the area for some time at that
point and thought we were familiar with the wildlife but we had never seen anything like that that then or since
then whatever it was I really don't think it meant to harm us but more so wondered why these two hairless Apes
were gawking at it yeah right at roughly because it was probably like you're in an alternate Dimension my dudes
at roughly noon the following day we set back out to explore this place only discover that the entire Road was now
missing when I say missing I mean the trees that were cleared to make it make it had apparently grown back
with no sign of the redwood-like trees we even begin to explore the woods once more but only to find no sign that it
had ever existed when we asked our parents about it they said they knew nothing about a new road
work being done near us what I've searched and searched for this place as has my brother we even went as far as
finding some older maps of the area but nothing listed any road there we did however ask some of the long timers of
the town and one gentleman that we'll call Mr a said he thought he remembered finding a same or similar Road as a boy
in that area but said he didn't think too much about it as it was many many years back for him honestly I'm stumped
I don't even live in that state anymore nor does my brother but we've talked about going back home at some point to
see if we can track it down once more maybe in the era of smartphones we can actually get some photographic evidence
thanks for taking the time to read this if you all ever get if y'all are ever in
the Greater Atlanta area area where my wife and I now reside hit us up and we can tell you where to go that will
probably that you probably won't have a stolen organs oh no I don't want a stolen organ that is so weird it's
absolutely terrifying these are the kind of things that just like stump me just how do you explain these certain
glitches that it's like this existed then it didn't I don't know and people have had these things happen before like
this is a very common thing that somebody will be like I was here and I remember things happening like that
where I'll be like no I am 100 sure that there was a road here there was something here well and it's even like
the Mandela effect yeah when you look at like the burns and it's like I was looking at a tick

hour-long commute and listening to you both take a deep dive into some of the gnarliest murders helps me pass the time

love all things I really enjoy the episodes on the Paranormal and the ghosts and the ghouls

ghosts I'm sorry I have to readjust it you might hear it okay squeakity squeak squeak even though I have a new chair
um it took me a bit to want to write this tale because I cry almost every time when I think about what happened

several times so I hope it's legible um already I'm like what dyslexia yeah I have attached here a double space

Grandma Cassidy as a Banshee I'm in my grandmother passed away when I was eight years old I'm 54 now so it was a long
ass time ago you are amazing I'm the youngest of her 22 grandchildren we are Irish Catholics so every sperm is sacred
I am one of five my mom's one of seven and Grandma was one of 13. holy [ __ ] [ __ ] you get the mathematically
progression and perhaps with each passing generation sperm was deemed less sacred
um imagine if my uncle had not been gay I might have been I might have had even more cousins damn his funeral is another
great tale not spooky or Supernatural just hilarious maybe one day I will send in a put a foot on that tail it is a
doozy why not however I digress I was the last person in my family to see her alive my grandmother lived in a
neighborhood for just a few years before she passed away or lived in my neighborhood excuse me because she just
lived in she lived in a neighborhood just a few years I was like Wow only a few years other than that she was living
in the woods she had spent most of her adult life in the house where she raised her massive
brood one day she was walking to her house from church because it was a day with a Y in it and of course Church
church and she was hit in that in the head with an object and robbed laud she was in her late 70s at the time and was
placed in a medically induced coma somebody beat and robbed a late 70s woman like what the [ __ ] is wrong on her
way home from church gross after this horrific attack she was finally convinced to sell her home of more than
60 years and moved closer to my family she moved into a row a house a few blocks away from us she was unhappy
because she missed her butcher her church and especially the Saint Jerome's Golden Age society and the rosary
Society because church because Church she did not venture out much oh and was a little depressed oh that makes me so
sad because we yell really hard I just want to fix this for her the day she passed she uncharacteristically did go
out oh she went to the bank and then she came to my grammar school I remember it
was a Wednesday because we had a half day so the public school kids could receive religious instruction and the
rosary Society could meet in our cafeteria sorry to bombard you with all the Catholic stuff but my mama loved her
Rosary in fact she often mistake she was often mistaken for a nun not the habit-wearing type but The Groovy
liberated post-vatican II polyester suit wearing type not that type of nothing you know just that kind and my pops love
to complain about the long ass sermons this is a favorite pastime among grumpy Irish Catholic men truth anywho I was
the teacher's pet yes that one Hermione had nothing on me you're raising your hand like do we have homework over the
weekend I was out of class running an urn for my teacher and I saw Grandma in the
cafeteria I waved to her and kept walking I figured she was there for the rosary society meeting and I had a very
important missive to uh yeah to deliver the principal and I was teacher's pet I had a reputation to uphold and I was a
massive nerd it's Leviosa I was happy that she decided to join the other purple-haired ladies for some
stale crumb cake wheat coffee and a few rounds of Hail Mary Hail Mary ale by the
time I got home from school she was gone saddest part she was she died while unlocking her door so we had to call the
medical examiner grandma and I were close I loved her costume jewelry and sleeping at her house when my parents
went out which wasn't often since my mom always wore a girdle and it took about a
week for her to get in and out of that bad boy I slept in Grandma's bed and I remember being fascinated by her
extremely sunken eyes you know same they were literally in the back of her skull
and then think even further when she slept she looked like the Crypt Keeper I was
terrified and fascinated you're like yo my grandma's eyes was deep oh I'm crying
those eyes though Nana okay [Laughter] forward to 2001. oh we should stop laughing oh no it's 2001. oh yeah that's
not good yeah that's a good thing okay okay you were correct in saying we should stop laughing yeah fast forward
to 2001. it's important to note I never dreamed about Grandma until the year 2001. I live in New York City and in
2001 I was living with Gavin who was a Brit in the summer of 2001 my dad got very sick with cancer I'm sorry he had
his lymph nodes removed and the surgery really took its toll we were all really worried that he might not survive
in early September 2001 I dreamed about my grandmother in the dream my grandmother was lying on the floor of an
all-white room wrapped in a shroud and my mother was sitting next to her sobbing in the dream I approached my Mom
and Grandma I moved the Shroud away from my Grandma's face and she sat up and let
out this horrific whale oh her face was so contorted she looked like the painting The Scream oh my God I woke up
so suddenly that Gavin woke up too I was upset because I believed my grandma was
trying to warn me about something awful to my mind she looked like a banshee which an Irish folklore is a Harbinger
for death just gonna say I told Gavin about the dream and said I think it meant that someone was going to die he
hugged me and told me that my dad was a tefl buzzard and he would live for he would live a long life oh Gavin oh no
and that was like such a sweet thing that he was like I'm gonna comfort you and now I see where this is going
oh on September 11 2001 Gavin got up early for work because he had a meeting his dad was visiting and he was driving
into Manhattan with Gavin to catch a bus to mass Gavin's aunt and uncle lived there he kissed me goodbye and said see
you tonight I fell back to sleep and got up about an hour later at the time we lived in is it Bayonne
Bayonne Bayonne I think Bayonne New Jersey I worked in Midtown but that day I had a court appearance in Brooklyn I
got to the World Trade Center where Gavin worked around 8 55. I was in the mezzanine under the towers and heading
toward the subway I heard a loud pop people started running and I had no idea what happened a security guard ran over
to me and told me to get out of the building now oh so ran out so I ran out and across the street the first Tower
was on fire and there was paper fluttering everywhere I asked a man what happened and he said plane hit the
building oh my God I tried to call Gavin but the cell service had cut I asked the
man you think they'll Evacuate the second tower I was worried because Gavin worked in the second tower he said
definitely so I decided to hop on the subway and go to court I thought that's some untrained pilot
like JF Gay Jr had gotten confused and crashed their plane by accident into the building that's what we all thought I
was a little distorted and took the training sorry disoriented and took the train going in the wrong direction I got
off at the next stop and went to the street level I saw all these people running up the street Away From The
Towers a woman grabbed my arm and said run and then I heard a very loud boom a few blocks away I found a pay phone I
wanted to call my office to tell them that something happened at the towers and I was not going to make it to court
as I waited on the line for the phone I heard someone say a second plane hit the
second tower oh my God my knees gave way someone grabbed me and all I could say was he's in the building oh completely
oh you're gonna like actually make me cry yeah completely dazed I somehow made my way to the office by the time I got
to Midtown the buildings had collapsed we were notified in November 2001 that his remains had been recovered I'm
always grateful that Grandma visited me and tried to warn me you see Gavin and I
usually commuted into the city together but that day he had a 7 A.M meeting I used to beat myself up wishing that I
understood my dream better you could never never if I knew then what I know now I would
have tried to get him to stay home or commute and commute with me he would be alive you could have had no no you would
have a way of knowing that there's no way one quick note Gavin visited a priest in
a vision the priest was Clairvoyant and often received visitors my cousin was on
a religious retreat because church that The Clairvoyant priest was running during the retreat he grabbed my cousin
and asked her did you lose someone in our national tragedy whoa my cousin said yes and he went on to say the person you
lost was British and talks very fast with a thick thick accent I had some trouble understanding him and then the
priest went on to say he wants her to know that he knows she tried to be strong and only cries when she's alone
he loves her and he is safe and happy and has Ricky tell her not to be sad oh Ricky was his beloved King Charles oh my
God Gavin carried a picture of Ricky on his keychain that was the first thing about him that let me know he was
boyfriend material on a humorous note Gavin had a very thick Northern British accent no one ever understood him I
often acted as a translator I proudly say that I am fluent in Cockney English I will be very excited if you share my
tale about Grandma Cassidy as a Banshee you guys are awesome and your podcast makes my horrific commute bearable stay

double Libra with an Aries moon cause I know y'all like to know I love you double Libra hi thank you both to and
thank you both and to all the folks behind the scenes for bringing us the ear candy that is known as morbid
podcast my best friend Courtney Capricorn corn everyone needs a Capricorn bestie
we love a Capricorn we do well they have a small hobby cast that looks at horror
media and Finds Its parallel real life True Crime and scary stories oh that's cool it's a load of work slash stress to
create a podcast but Courtney's a nice friendship was forged in the fire of working as servers at a big restaurant
chain in our early and mid-20s and nothing I mean nothing will bond two women together like fighting in the
trenches of young adulthood while endless soup salad and breadsticks at the same time did you work at the Olive
Garden you absolutely did when you're here your family oh [ __ ] you're going to
be your family no but that's what Disney World says to you they say welcome home you say
welcome home and I say I don't [ __ ] live here that's actually exactly what she said happy to say we are out of the
soupy ditches now in more than a decade later still the best of friends do you like does parm cheese give you like
stress it says you don't have to read this part times there is such a thing as shameful
self-promotion but our cast is called Nothing scarier and it would be just feel amazing to know that you all know
it exists nothing scarier nothing scarier it's a podcast Courtney shared geld's podcast
with me and damn it if I didn't jump in with two feet and narria K in the world for what diving into the bottom of more
than 300 episodes of True Crime consumed at Breakneck speed could do to a person
just imagine what researching it does exactly that was a few months ago and I'm just about caught up now
only reason I haven't continued to rapidly devour episodes is that I shared y'all with my husband Gemini everyone
also needs a Gemini life partner in my opinion I was waiting for it and now we have to listen episodes together I mean
we could listen separately but there's a partner rule there right once a show goes from a my show to an R show you've
entered into a blood pack to that can't be broken I don't make the rules you are
absolutely correct you are correct thank you so much for all that you do including delivering stories with a
victim-first mindset and been bringing so much light and dignity to very often horrible and heartbreaking situations
thank you so much thank you if you all end up reading this on the cast I might not [ __ ] myself but I will have a full
on existential crisis in the best way possible as an air sign should so dear listeners if you see a 30-something year
old average looking chick Millennial completely disassociating while shopping with headphones in it might just be me
experiencing an out of body moment in a Serial aisle I'll start breathing again in like five minutes don't worry only
one headphone in when you're shopping that's right I was listening to one of your most recent listener episodes and
someone called out for other dimension stories specifically they mentioned someone retelling the story of them
getting trapped in a dream for a lifetime when I heard this I thought oh I have one of those what hang tight and
don't let the bedbugs bite as I tell you why I might be the subject of a True Crime Story in another dimension
even since I was ever since I was very little I've always had a tense relationship with sleep my family has
told me one of and you know what I feel like I should update everyone on this because people were like how is it going
my youngest sleeps now it's crazy it's awesome her temperament totally different so she sleeps now she
decided that she was over that whole thing and we were over in the beginning so I'm glad that she joined us ready
joined me but thank you guys for there you go knock on that [ __ ] guys for asking because people have been like
how's that going are you all right yeah so I appreciate you guys well but now you have puppies that don't sleep I do
now I have those but you know we've been conditioned for it and they fuzzy they fuzzy my family has told me one of the
only ways to get me to sleep was when when I was a wee BB was to allow me to lay on my dad's chest for a while and
listen to his heartbeat to fall asleep that is the purest thing I've ever heard in my goddamn life there are a number of
photos of me as a little human potato sleeping on my dad's chest holding him hostage with a tiny mite that can only
be wielded by a small sleep resistant child in a house with two absolutely exhausted parents wow I have never
related to a sentence more that's adorable by itself not being able to fall asleep without comfort as a kid
isn't that odd but as I grew up sleep and I would still not find the right pattern for our relationship as a kid I
was a night owl sleep just felt lucky if I was attempt it was attempted before 2
A.M oh sorry felt yucky if it was attempted before 2 A.M at the earliest honestly still does side note
someone sent my parents gift cards and gold stars because two of their three children shared a bedroom and could not
have had more opposite sleep oh no where I am and always will be a night owl to the extreme my younger sister a Virgo is
sunshine itself out like a light at dusk and up like the little beam of sunlight
she was with the Rising Sun not sure I'm sure you all can imagine the type of sister fights that can break out when
the disruption of sleep is as constant and unavoidable as taxes death and my sister's chipper Joy at 6am for real the
[ __ ] love you Jen love you Jen I was around four or five when I started sleepwalking for the first time I can
half remember one of the very first Dream bleeds I had as a kid I call them dream bleeds because while this one was
scary they aren't always scary sometimes my dreams just leak out and show up in the real world and the first truth I
love how casual that is they just leak out you know just a dream bleed and the first Dream bleed I can recall I had
woken up and found that all my stuffed animals were staring at me hate that every single one in the toy box peeking
up at me every toy on the floor rotated to have its little face pointing at me even My Chosen bedtime companion a Care
Bear they were all staring at me now I was fourish when this happened so I don't remember much more than the eyes
and the fear at this point oh my God but at some point the eyes started blinking
and my underdeveloped and my undeveloped brain screamed run for it I bolted out of the bedroom fish flopped like a
salmon running a river over the baby gate covering the entrance to our room and ran for my parents even as they sent
me back to bed I remember the eyes of my stuffed animals still following me sometimes the dream bleeds are like that
and we'll hang around even after reason has called them out for not belonging there that's a terrifying dream I don't
like it we moved to a new I also love the term dream read and I think it's a great band name hello Cleveland we are
dream bleed can we please I'm gonna TM it no I'm just kidding I'm just kidding it's yours you came up with
it we moved to a new home when I was five-ish and it was here with the dreams of that the dreams of my Village would
start happening in this stream I would start sleepwalking more and more to the point that latches had to be put up high
on our screen doors or else I might Escape into the night chasing one dream idea or another oh no like the time I
walked to the back door late late in the night to go outside to go swimming in early spring in Michigan when we didn't
have a pool or another another evening when I decided I needed to go outside and catch
the buttons whatever they were I love this okay Coraline honestly nothing at this point really seems stranger unique
I was a kid with a [ __ ] sleep pattern while my brain was developing the rational side of me is very aware that
there isn't a lot of facts or measurables to pin the idea of me floating off to another dimension on
however I'm not sure what else this could be called when I was six or seven in elementary
school but not the upper level yet I started dreaming about my Village in my Village I was me internally my internal
monologue my thoughts and feelings and wishes but on the outside I looked a little different whenever I went to my
Village I would be lucid dreaming although at six or seven I didn't know what that was called it felt like I
would go to sleep and wake up in a different place in time my first visit visit to the Village was scary I felt
like I felt everything like I did when I was in my normal body but the body I was
in was just slightly different than mine the skin a little darker sun-kissed hair
a little shorter the one time I saw my Village face in a mirror it didn't look like me oh that's not like that I looked
like I was a relative of non-dream me but my features were all different seeing my other face made me so sad that
I never looked in a mirror again when visiting the village and for a long time if I suspected I might have a dream
bleed going on in the real world I'd avoid a mirror until I could have confirmed I was fully awake
interestingly enough this has led me to be able to navigate my house confidently
in the dark especially during Late Night Trips bathroom trips no light means no mirror and chance to see my other face
old habits die hard I guess side note I needed to take a break here for a minute because honestly I missed
my Village and my friends there and I didn't realize that it would make me this homesick to write about my Village
but that's not very tough rational totally chilled boss babe of me so let's get back to it over the years over the
years from six-ish until I was in my mid-20s most often is most often when I dreamed I would go to my Village I would
still have regular dreams but from six on in my life I very rarely have a dream where I am not aware I am dreaming I can
choose pretty easily to take control of my dreams if I want to and don't frequently because as an adult I've
learned that this is what triggers night terrors and dream breeds for almost 20 years of my life I built a
life in my Village whoa that's really [ __ ] cool you have Minecraft in your brain you have the Sims in your brain
yeah that's the generational difference here's the generational difference you got the Sims I knew my house there which
I shared with other visitors whoa I knew the neighborhood and the people who worked for the village did you hire
them I say Village because it was small in a valley surrounded by trees there were landlines but no cell phones even
after cell phones were common in the real main worlds when I visited I could walk around town with my Village friends
or by myself I was always around the same age I was in real life and typically had the same ideas I would in
the real world that is non-violent ones or ideas of theft or destruction got to hear it one time in my Village I stole
something from someone's house not glad to hear that being that I was aware I was dreaming a visitor and a teenager at
the time I didn't think anything would come of it that was until the sheriff rolled up and took me to the station he
told me I needed to be respectful to the Village even if I was a visitor he told
me that because this visitor Village had visitors they had to be even more strict
with the laws otherwise the people that belonged to the Village would be in total chaos what seemed reasonable to me
there were the people that lived in this Village and they needed the people that
visited from The Real World to be respectful the sheriff told me that they've had to lock visitors up before
and even execute them to stop them from harming the village and that if he that he wouldn't want that to happen to me
I've had enough and she wrote fair enough having the fear of the local law enforcement slammed into me I went back
to my regular visits and was respectful to everyone visitors and residents alike
you might be wondering at this point how does it all go wrong turns out it all goes wrong pretty spectacularly with a
lot of blood some time served and what I think was my execution oh my God I should say here for the sake of the sake
again of trying to be rational I have a very active imagination a constant monologue a touch of mental health
issues and if you believe my for you page probably some neuro spicy symptoms this is very relatable you know what
same I think you're just generic sign my real life during this time was touched by violence death and the divorce of my
parents honestly this was good for everyone involved though you feel me and a number of other consequences for
The Reckless Behavior one can develop as they grow up in a world as steady as House of Cards during House of as a
house of cards during an earthquake it's very possible that just like a dream bleed I had a reality bleed back into my
Village Dimension bringing with it some of the issues I was dealing with back into the main back in the main timeline
I certainly hope so because I don't think I committed the crime they found me guilty of holy [ __ ]
one visit to my Village in my early 20s everything would change I woke up quote unquote in my room in the cabin at the
top of the northernmost Hill in the valley my Village room was covered in plants and had far too many windows for
someone who typically slept in well past Sunrise it was beautiful though and the
bed was comfortable waking up in the village is really the only time I can remember waking up feeling rested as a
reminder when I was in the village I could feel everything like I do when I was in the real world I could hold my
breath swimming with friends in the nearby River gravity applied and I could feel my feet hitting the Earth this
place was either real or the most realistic dream to ever occur this is crazy I am fascinated by this but like
in the best way on this particular day I put oh my God is that you that scared me too
sorry everybody that's that's oh my goodness I apologize crazy girl I wanted to show everybody my
Pinhead text Stone um so yeah on this particular day I put on my brown hiking boots and walked out
my bedroom door in a hurry when I got to the hall there were there were and there
weren't any other visitors there which was a little odd but wasn't any cause for concern I walked down the flight of
stairs that led right to the front door and out into the day everything was silent no birds no people
walking on the street no bugs in the air no one mowing the lawn nothing I remember feeling very very unsettled I'd
been scared in the village before but nothing like this I decided to go to the neighbor's house to see if they were
home I wish I would have gone back to my Village room and watered my plants maybe
then I'd still be allowed back oh my God I want to mind this is just like fascinating to me I went to my
neighbor's house a lovely woman and her husband lived there with their dogs I never remember exactly how many the door
was unlocked and I was very and I very stupidly let myself in when I walked into the house all was similarly silent
as the world was outside my fear grew but with it something different now like I said when I was here my feelings were
my feelings I controlled my actions it was me but just then walking into the Silent House of my kind neighbors who
had been there since I first visited as a child I felt rage rage like I had not felt before in my real life or in my
Village Life it was compelling and soon I felt like it was controlling me as I walked further into the house down the
Long Hall that was characteristic of all the homes in the village regardless of their design style my boots started
slipping and something on the floor oh no trigger warning for Gore and implied violence y'all
I walked into the living room and saw everything that had been splattered in blood spray up the ceiling and the walls
and puddles on the floor the rage I had been feeling took over them it was my body in my Village and I was no longer
in control I started smashing photos on the walls turning over Furniture throwing things out of cabinets I
remember running up the stairs and in and out of the bedrooms covering any mirrors with whatever I could find
before destroying the rest of the rooms a few things to note here I never and very thankfully saw the bodies of my
dream neighbors just blood and I had never before this visit not been in control of my dream body here at the
Village never after the destruction of the house a number of villagers arrived at the front
door I'm not sure how they got there or how everyone knew to come but they were there and suddenly I was in control
again fear took over and I bolted into the woods I felt like I was running for my
life which was silly because I knew I was dreaming right eventually the villagers caught me and
arrested me for the absolutely heinous murder of my friendly dream neighbors for the next two years anytime I would
dream about the village which was becoming more and more rare I would be in a Cell jailed and awaiting trial for
the murders I swore I didn't commit what the [ __ ] my visitor friends would visit
me in jail and tell me of all the things that they were doing to try to get me out eventually they would stop showing
up this story is already very long but in the interest of brevity I'll jump to the
last time I remember going to the Village which was now really my cell I woke up this time in prison I'd been
convicted while I was in the real world it seemed I sat up over the side of my uncomfortable bed and looked around the
room no one knows at all here in the prison but they did give me a paper and a pen to write with I was doodling
thinking about what I had to do in the real main world at work tomorrow when the sheriff came in
he sat down and told me my last appeal didn't go through that I would be executed the next day and that he wanted
to come down to talk to me about it as a reminder I'd been visiting the village as a prisoner for years now and had
several times been told there was nothing they could do if I was guilty the price was execution at this point in
my life sadly my other dimension dream Village had become really boring way to pass my sleeping hours I had Lucidity
but no freedom this is so wild it says I feel like you need to write a book about this truly I
remember the sheriff telling me he was sad for me and that he'd miss me the only things I recall from the case was
that they had my dream boots boot prints in the blood I'd been found on scene as
a visitor I had no alibi and there were no other visitors at that time the case was open and shut the rules was the
rules as I was warned years before would be enforced one way or another I told Sheriff that I would miss him in
the village I told him about the controlling rage and he nodded as if this had happened to others before I
woke up to my alarm for work before I got to say a proper goodbye but I made sure the sheriff knew I knew it wasn't
his fault I might not be back and I never got to go back I have memories of the village of my neighbors my plants
and my Adventures I wonder sometimes if I'll ever run into another visitor in my
bill in my to my Village in the real world not sure how they would recognize me but I like to think we could prove to
one another that this place exists maybe I shouldn't call this world the real world though because the village was
very real to me this would be just the one I'm Tethered to and would come back to I like the life I've built here too
but man do I miss my Village nowadays I choose to not take control of my dreams if I ever have a dream bleed
my safety net is asking my husband if I'm awake or not thankfully he never uses this vulnerability to mess with me
and quickly lets me know if I'm in the real world or still dreaming there are many many ways to write off my
experience as a dream world escape and truly not another dimension I I entertain this and some of the other
theories that have cropped up to explain my Village to me over the years as much
as I entertain possibilities my heart knows that this place exists out there I feel homesick for my Village and my
friends there and wish deeply that I could find a way to clear dream me's name or bring me back to life on that
side but hopefully if a true crime podcast exists in the village now my case can at least be a tantalizing story
of a possible wrong conviction or used to warn visitors to go back to their room if they arrive in the village to a
