goofy with those yeah you know I think that would be really fun what do you guys think I'm into it I heard you say

we saw this one I was like that's for ash I said thank you that is for ash all right so let's start our already ruined
it let's start off by saying I'm not sure of my house 101 years old built during prohibition is actually haunted
or just something something that things pass through I have distinct memories during my childhood of blind shooting
closed on their own and then periods of time where things were normal the biggest and spookiest set of ghostly
happenings happened about four years ago during my senior year of high school right around Halloween Halloween
throughout October things ramped up over time it started one night when I was up
late working on a class project my twin brother came in and told me he was going
to go to bed and walked out of the kitchen where I was a few minutes later I heard the distinct sound sound of the
footrest of our recliner being snapped down so I assumed it's my bro and he sat back down for a sec and I wait nothing
no one just me and panic [ __ ] that suddenly spawned that suddenly spawned in due to my fear I go and check yep
he'd gone to bed 10 minutes prior when he told me cool cool cool I was totally fine having a ghost to chill in my
living room and return to my project if I don't address it it'll stop right that's how all problems in life work
wrong you don't address it it'll just go away wrong the next week I'm at our side
door about to walk uh out to the car where my brother was waiting to go meet our parents for dinner and as I open the
door I hear something sprinting through the kitchen toward me no I make terrified eye contact nope with my
brother clearly conveyed my inner monologue of holy [ __ ] I'm about to shuffle off this Mortal coil without my
consent because some invisible boogeyman is going to run me down right now before
I finally came to my sent my senses and slammed the house door somehow this still didn't spookify me too badly I'll
just keep ignoring it and it'll go away yes nope wrong again some time passes it's now the very end of October if my
memory serves correct buckle up my spooky [ __ ] this is where [ __ ] got real I thought [ __ ] already got I kind
of felt that way too yeah well when I told my roommates this story we slept with the lights on for 2 days I just I
need to describe the way my family's house is laid out for you to clearly visualize what comes next I was about to
laugh my hat off at you I'mma laugh my hat off or maybe I'm so scared that my hat just popped off she's not going to
laugh her ass off she's going to laugh her hat off I'm going to laugh my hat off well our kitchen had a back
staircase that links up to the main staircase it's super Steep and runs right up to the dishwasher so we don't
use it it's just storage space for kitchen it's just a storage space for kitchen appliances and bages some bides
bides I love a bid we love a bid can I side note really quick when me and Drew first got like a home of our own what
the main thing he said to me that he wanted to do he said our house has to be a beverage house and I was like what's a
beverage house and he said I always want to have like a bunch of different Beverages and you do and we do we are a
beverage bage it was very important to him dream realized because realized I opened your refrigerator the other day
and I day and I said oh my God the bites good the variety if anybody wants to sponsor us we have aani we have ollipop
we have poppies we don't we don't um discriminate between the the good for your tummy sodas we have Gatorade for
Drew we have orange juice most of the time we have seltzers for the Mikes we have laqua we have oh laqua sorry yeah
laqua I thought it was lroy I think it's a a debate oh I have it on my face I have an itch on my
face oh I want to like smack it but that doesn't work either I'm just going to lightly tap it it's really not helping
it's not helping no I'm just kidding no it's on this side can you blow on it I don't want to blow coffee breath on I
don't care blow on it Blow on it oh okay that worked thank you please leave that
in anyway this took a this took a hard turn so our kitchen has a back stair oh nobody said that beverages so the base
of those oh yes excuse me bages the base of those stairs is directly adjacent to
the countertop that has the dishwasher the oven and the sink so I'm at the sink washing some pans from dinner late at
night I'm the last one awake out of my peripheral vision to the left I can clearly see that staircase it's dark
obviously as everyone's asleep I [ __ ] you not my heart ceased to beat as I see
a figure at the top of that back staircase I freeze sudsy hands up and all and hold my breath for a second out
of the corner of my eye I clearly see a very tall shadow figure she spied with her little eye bent down with his no
this cannot be real I know it is but with his hands on his knees ass stuck out head cocked all the way to the side
to stare at me he is in full twerking position ready to shake some ass like a teenut a prom in front of all
their teachers and chaperons but he has his his spooky head tilt like like head turned to the side
and cocked so he could get a good look at little old hands on the knees but like uh he said hands on my knee shaken
ass I'm a thought [ __ ] post me a pick I can't laugh F to go you saw it what you say
I'm just letting it go I'm like if it cracks It crack it cracks cra it was good at first well I was not cool with
being perceived by this spooky Shadow bastard I did not want to be perceived and definitely not cool with his spooky
ass shaking ass shaking stance side note I know I sounded like some cool Brave badass who totally wasn't afraid but
homies I was about 3 seconds away from melting into a bottle of fear and evicting myself from the property
immediately I don't blame you I turn to confirm what I'm seeing and it's gone I love that somebody just came to
shake ass with you in the afterlife that's my favorite he was and he didn't even shake ass he just got in the
position he got ready to shake ass but then he knew he was trying to see if you were ready and you like he was doing
what the ghosties were doing in the Amityville Horror they were like are you ready for a dance off like the marching
band I think they were literally like are you ready for it and you said and he was like you're not ready for it and he
just got out he knew you weren't ready for his twerking abilities would have gotten off it was about
to let's go he would have been like okay let's go you should have shook ass with
him Shake twerk but like you could have figured it out in the moment I would have you got believe in you I would have
you know I've literally watched Tik Tok videos to learn how to twerk yes I do know that about I I can't do it so if
anybody wants to help me out call me don't call me but like DM me DM me and teach me how to twerk call me beat be if
if you want to teach me how to twerk if you want to teach me how to twerk cuz I love Stallion and she has so many great
songs to shake ass to but doesn't she do that like thing y exactly I don't want to put my tongue out and get black all
over it you got to just like stick it to the front oh okay oh I have to do it yeah of course wait I don't want to hold
on cuz I Sparkles one two three yeah I love it all right so I know for a fact this wasn't so it's Halloween guys have
TS I know for a fact this wasn't some trick of the light or my imagination this was a solid figure enough so that I
was 100% positive one of my siblings was playing a prank on me and just standing
there to scare me but now there was nothing there so I finished washing my dishes and went to the bed for went to
bed forcing myself not to run when I hit the landing on the stairs where he had been very cool casual mindful of me very
Demir very Demir very cutesy cutesy of you weirdly enough after all that things stopped for a while my younger sister
started to experience things though like her foot being yanked while sleeping at
night after I went away to college uh-uh no I try not to think of that when I visit home for our in our shared room
but that's the tale now most of my friends refuse to come to my family home oh I'd come you're like I'm there girl
I'm there I'll go shake ass with that ghost once I learn how to twerk yeah uh and your friends are scared to come due
to a fear that this spooky twerking tool is still on my stairs I try hard not to
think of him when I'm the last one up at night but he hasn't bothered me since maybe I ignored him for long enough that
he skedaddled off to haunt someone else keep it weird but not so weird that I have to call you out Cara not so weird
that you don't shake ass with the ghost on your stairs Cara I understand that that was a scary situation because like
yeah totally if a ghost or a Damon is trying to have a dance off with you you got to show him what your mom you got to
shake what your mama gave you you have to shake it like a Polaroid picture precisely so you really need to but you
know what I probably would have been scared too and ran out of my house so I would have been too that's that's my
real me talking so tough me is like I don't know I would have thrown ass I would thrown ass with that
time wow Cara I love that see that was my spooky clown laugh again I didn't even mean to do
it oh I don't like that I like it don't show this to Drew I think he would leave
John I sent a picture to him uh cuz he was picking up the girls from school and he just said my God and then she said
when you sent the picture of you a picture of this and I said Twins and he said totes M goat totes M goats
and I was like you're going to be scared when I come downstairs Drew said a you a
cute little sad clown but I think if he heard me laugh like that he would not he
say you're a scary little sad clown he would say get out of my presents so my next listener tale is called Halloween
listener tale my ghostly exboyfriend and a New Orleans psychic oh no Debbie said
this is a beautiful tale but it might make you cry oh [ __ ] I can't cry I'm already cry no dub dub this is from
Chelsea Hi Chelsea Hi Chelsea Chelsea um I've been watching old episodes of Southern Charm and there's a Chelsea on
there oh I loved Chelsea yeah and the really terrible Ashley girl was like Chelsea when she was trying when she was
trying to explain why she was a dick Ashley Chelsea all right my name ised me on
Twitter who did Ashley oh she blocked you on Twitter she blocked me on Twitter yeah that's hardcore I know uh so this
says my name is Chelsea and as I mentioned above I'm a Louisiana girl hey Chelsea hi born in and raised is just
North of New Orleans I was raised Catholic and while I no longer identify as religious I would say I am still
quite spiritual my Catholic upbringing has left a few imprints on who I am as a person and namely a deep seated belief
in a higher power whatever you want to call him or her something greater than ourselves a strong conviction that there
is more to this world and the next than we see Andor an understanding and an openness to signs and messages from the
other side yeah I agree I actually love that I think that's a that's a beautiful
belief system that's pretty much exactly what I believe yeah I don't believe that
I'm psychic or Clairvoyant in any way but I've always felt a closeness or openness to messages from loved ones who
have passed on and I could write another two or three listener Tales just with stories of interactions with my grandma
mama mama after her passing okay so please write those stories yeah I got to hear about mama mama mama more than 10
years ago I moved to Houston Texas after grad school to take a job and start building my career while living in
Houston I met and started dating a nice Greek boy named Teddy oh we love Teddy Teddy was and still to this day is the
kindest person I have ever met good cuz I was like we love teddy and then I was like do we love teddy I know I got fight
Teddy but I'm glad I don't have to fight Teddy we would have squared up for you Chelsea we would have but you know what
Teddy good job hey Teddy Once Upon introducing Teddy to a group of my friends one of my friends asked me how
it felt to be the worst person in the relationship oh you know we're all out there we're all out there somewhere I'm
the worst person in the relationship are you the worst person in the relationship probably yeah you are
yeah you are like yeah don't lie I think you're right we're the worst wor ones here we are that's awesome he was joking
but he was 100% right whatever traits I imagine God uses to judge the goodness of a person selflessness loyalty
patience Etc Teddy was off the charts and all of them Teddy after dating for about a year I
woke up one morning to find Teddy having a fullblown seizure beside me holy [ __ ]
the turn yeah that took a quick left after months of testing doctors visits and additional seizures always at night
and always in his sleep we would find a brain tumor lodged in his right temporal
lobe we quickly scheduled surgery and the tumor was removed successfully and identified as benign oh good but
unfortunately the Caesar cesure continued and when they did I was always the only person there since they only
happened at night while we were sleeping he lived with them I can't imagine that
I really can't no you're an angel he lived with them and managed his condition with medication as best as he
could I'm a strong believer that just because something isn't forever doesn't mean it wasn't real my relationship with
Teddy is an example of this after almost 3.5 years together life was pulling the
Two of Us in different directions we broke up and went our separate ways both sad but with nothing but love and
respect in our hearts for one another I moved back to Louisiana and he stayed in
Texas the fact that you still say he's like one of the most kind people you've ever met it's like such a mature
relationship it really is fast forward a year and a half and I was dating the man
who spoiler alert is now my husband David who who hey David day day we were on our first day day day day we were on
I just nicknamed your husband for you all right we were on our first big trip as a couple in Mexico when I received a
phone call from my best friend back in Houston oh no my heart is about to sink oh no when I answered she asked to speak
to my boyfriend it struck me as weird but I handed over the phone when David hung up I knew exactly that something
was wrong David then had the devastating task of telling me that Teddy was gone he had passed in his sleep as a result
of a seizure he had been alone oh oh that's awful I'll tell you one thing ladies it takes a strong man to watch
the woman he loves grieve openly and Sav ually over another man but he did that's
good one David for Life another great one he held me while I sobbed and screamed and blame myself if I had only
been there if we hadn't broken up I could have saved him when I told him I didn't know what to do with myself or my
thoughts he asked me to tell him about Teddy what a I just got I got a full body like what an amazing man we spent
that entire night talking about my ex-boyfriend with David giving me all the space and support I needed to not
crumble into a iivan I knew after that night that I would marry David hell yeah you did that's
awesome okay you're probably like [ __ ] get to the spooky Park which is exactly
what I'm doing now but you needed the background context we did and I appreciate you telling us the months
following Teddy's death were weird heavy it sounds insane but I could feel him that doesn't sound insane at all strange
things were happening in my house never threatening or scary but I could feel his presence lights would flicker an
untouched book on my book shelf became mysteriously dogeared to a particularly meaningful passage that's beautiful
damn would be so much yeah she literally won't let me borrow her books because I
dog ear the pages it's true I don't dog gear pages I can't handle it you're insane I'm a bookm markerly I like my
books to be in the right condition I think they look well loved if they've been dog geared a lot no not a great I
was going to say it's a great personal debate we'll do a poll yeah we will except I'll I might lose that one I
don't know I don't know one time when I had a fever and chills my AC broke making my house a toasty 83° oh I would
die that's horrible once my fever broke and the chills went away the AC turned back on like nothing had happened it's
just like Teddy to be taking care of someone from the afterlife wow Halloween night of that year Halloween Halloween I
happened to be back in Houston on a business trip I was invited to celebrate with some of my and Teddy's mutual
friends and headed over to their house for dinner that night a wicked thunderstorm came rolling through
Houston knocking out the power at their house and generally upping The Spook Factor since we were now dining by
candlelight all through the evening our host had music playing in the background
via her phone at some point her phone stopped working and try as she might the music would not come back on we chucked
it up to the storm messing with service and continued our conversation in silence for another 30 minutes or so
eventually as we knew it would the conversation turned to Teddy as the storm continued to rage we discussed how
much we all missed him and agreed on the general tragedy of the situation I confessed the guilt I was carrying
around how if we hadn't broken up I would have likely been there to intervene I told them about the weird
experiences I was having in my house and that's when our host phone started playing music again on its own stop it a
completely different song and genre than it had been earlier the song was a newer
one I had heard in passing but never really listen to the lyrics until that moment we all sat in silence while the
song played each listen listening to the words and listening at each other with w
and looking at each other with wide eyes it was happier by besal I love besal oh
my God I have Goosebumps if you're unfamiliar the lyrics are to paraphrase lately I've been thinking I want you to
be happier even though I might not like this I want you to be happier and so that means I'll have to leave oh my God
I my Goosebumps have Goosebumps I was just I felt that holy [ __ ] the song is about a couple who is breaking up
because they know what's best for them even though they are heartbroken with the guy acknowledging that he's
going to walk away so that she can be happier everyone in the I'm like about to cry everyone in the room was looking
at me some with Goosebumps on their arms some With Tears in their eyes and it was
clear that they were all interpreting the same message as I was Teddy was telling me that it was okay that he
heard me that he didn't blame me and that he was going to back off with the ghosty [ __ ] since it was freaking me out
a bit LOL I immediately felt a weight lift off my shoulders after that night I did not feel his presence around me
anymore I felt that he had moved on to wherever he was supposed to be I didn't hear from him again
until 2 years later in October 2020 in the midst of the pandemic David and I were engaged and tentatively planning
our wedding thanks Co my spooky witchy Bachelor at Extravaganza which was originally planned in sa Massachusetts
that's M was I it had to be cancelled due to travel restrictions so plan B Was A Bachelor at hallow weekend here in
Louisiana which is still [ __ ] cool I think that even be better yeah complete with outdoor social distancing friendly
activities for a small group of my closest friends one of these activities was hiring a real life French Quarter
psychic medium to come read tarot cards for us as part of our glamp out at our farm north of Nola oh my God this is
cool sh why didn't you invite me chelse why didn't you invite us the open air was a good setting for group activities
and the sweeping Live Oaks were an excellent backdrop for some witchery I'm obsessed I feel so cozy just thinking
about that it feels like a book the psychic began by reading tarot for everyone in attendance and this lady was
the real deal as in I sat down and was crying with the first three sentences out of her mouth first thing she said to
me before even touching the cards was your people on the other side are very loud they're telling me that you're
worried you won't be able to have children and they're telling me that that's not going to be a problem it will
happen almost immediately oh my God this woman did not know me she had no way of
knowing that I've known known since I was 16 that I have a condition that could impact my fertility and that
knowledge had hung over me like a dark cloud every day of my life spoiler alert she was correct so you didn't have any
issue that's amazing what's wild too that's weird that you had that like feeling that you were worried about it I
also had that feeling from a very young age and it's like I knew it and I did have trouble I know it's wild but then I
got my babies now after reading tarot she transitioned into a mediumship session where she opened herself up to
messages from the other side after a few messages for some of my friends all of which were scarily accurate she suddenly
said I'm feeling the presence of a young man and he's showing me a teddy bear with a tea on it oh I immediately went
cold Teddy's last name started with a t and one of his nicknames was Teddy te stop she proceeded to tell me that he
sees everything happening in your life and he's so happy for you he supported my marriage he likes David she also
added he wants you to know that there's nothing you could have done to present prevent what happened to him even if you
had been there it was over so quickly and he wasn't scared or in pain oh that must have been like such a weight off
your shoulders again seriously she finally said he wants you to know that you were the love of his life and he's
so grateful for that I'm going to sob right now literally I had to close my eyes so that they wouldn't start forming
tears it's like actual tears yes let me tell you the sabs that left my body it truly felt like the most beautiful gift
of closure knowing that he was okay hey knowing that he was happy and happy for me it's an experience that has stuck
with me and will be with me forever I now see teddy as one of my guardian angels up there conspiring with my mama
and paa Mama watching over me and my beautiful growing family David and I did indeed get pregnant almost immediately
after our wedding our son was born 2 days after our first anniversary and we are currently expecting our Second Son
yes chelse David continues to be an amazingly supportive partner and father to our children
we still talk about Teddy remember his birthday every year and we travel up to New England together to attend Teddy's
sister's wedding a few years ago where we bonded where he bonded with Teddy's dad and stayed up until 400 a.m.
drinking with Teddy's best friends that's amazing I love D my favorite person ever David rocks David now loves
Teddy's family as much as I do and we try to see them regularly his family will be a part of our children's lives
and I plan to share his story with my sons when they are old enough to understand I think this is the most
beautiful we've ever received truly I hope they see it as an example of finding a
beautiful Silver Lining around life's darkest clouds proof that people come into our lives for a reason and that not
all love stories end with forever some love stories end in this world but go on into the next and I hope they see their
father as an incredible an example of an incredible emotional maturity a paragon
of non-toxic masculinity and an illustration of the kind of supportive partner they should strive to be one day

next one is listener tale trick-or treat or clowns I love it hey all right I can't open it because
I'm silly yes I can this is from Megan Megan Megan I don't know why I said it like that oh
oh she did it now we'll work on the head tilt next yeah the Tilt W that just made me really
happy all right to properly tell this story I got so bossed in there to properly tell off on me what were you
saying today that you like couldn't unist she couldn't stop saying pist all right to properly tell this
story I need to start with the setting this happened in 2014 on the spookiest day of the year 1 2 3
Halloween my family had moved about an hour away from our old house in 2013 the new neighborhood we moved to was known
for Halloween so much that people drove to trick-or treat there were even more known for ch Christmas which leads to a
lot of traffic during the holidays but everybody passed out candy and loads of people decorated to give some
perspective we would buy a bag of candy every single time we went shopping in September and October just to have
enough to pass out before the night ended and sometimes that wasn't even enough wow I want to go to there I do
too at the time of this particular Halloween I was about 11 and my older sister Aon was around 12 so we were
still at the age where trick-or-treating was something we looked forward to we invited my sister's best friend who
lived an hour away to spend the night trick-or-treating with us since the neighborhood was so known for being the
spot to go naturally we had to coordinate costumes or what was the point Erin and her best friend were
Tweedle D and Tweedle Dum but instead of fat suits they wore tutos and suspenders
I love that I love that that's great a it was Alice and wore a little blue dress with a white apron and had a black
bow tied in my hair adorable we all looked very cute and unassuming which is cutesy cutesy very demure very mindful
which is probably why we looked like easy targets that night uh-oh I'm scared now to understand what happened I'm
going to give you a quick and simple layout of the neighborhood we lived near the end of a Long Street that connected
to two major streets in the neighborhood keep in mind that we had moved there recently and weren't super familiar with
the area however it was very safe and my mom who always supervised us outside thought it was fine for the three of us
to go alone while she stayed and passed out candy she helped us pick an easy route uh of three streets that formed a
triangle we would walk on the Main Street close to our house and then take a turn uh onto a street par to ours from
there we would turn onto the other Main Street that connected to the one we lived on just to make our way back even
though this was a safe neighborhood and the route was was simple I was pretty terrified to go alone we had never done
that never done that before let alone in a new neighborhood I was always the child who could hardly bear to be out of
sight of an adult that's literally your middle yeah my sister on the other hand relished in the opportunity to have no
supervision and she and her friend were excited your oldest y the night started off pretty nor
it was still light out when we left but by the time we had gotten to the second Main Road it was dark we amassed a good
amount of candy by that point and we're about to turn back onto our street however this is when things got a little
strange as we were about to turn back onto the street from the corner of my eye I saw a lone trick-or-treater across
the street he was dressed in all black clothing and wore a Halloween clown mask that covered his whole face scary I
don't like that this by itself wasn't unusual but what was strange is that he didn't have a bag to hold candy oh yeah
no instead he had a baseball bat nope I thought to myself huh that's odd huh huh
but he was on the other side of the road so it wasn't a problem well actually it
was a problem because pretty soon after noticing this person I realized he wasn't alone trailing behind us was
another person in all black and wearing that same clown Halloween mask obscure and it obscured his whole face this
person didn't have a bat but instead was simply dragging a golf club along the sidewalk behind him what the [ __ ] where
are where is any help what's happening I'm scared I mom pick me up I'm scared the rest all happened very quickly it
was dark and I don't know where they came from but in the blink of an eye the two people turned into three then four
then five then suddenly 10 people were dispersed around the street what the [ __ ] all wore the same clown masks and
had bats or golf clubs the ones on the other side of the street crossed the road and came towards us at the same
time the ones on the street got closer to us and started forming a circle no we were surrounded there were at least
three on each side to the left and right of us a few behind us and one in front they were dragging their clubs and
banging their bats on the concrete ew what [ __ ] like truly like [ __ ] you get a life what is particularly strange
and something I do not understand to this day is that the street was empty I was thinking that this whole time where
is everybody is there an adult to help you this was the most popular uh neighborhood to trick or treat in
however besides these strange boys and the looming Darkness we were the only ones on that street was this some like
weird elaborate hazing ritual that your neighborhood had oh my God maybe that' be kind of Welcome to the neighborhood
we're going to scare the [ __ ] out of see if you can [ __ ] hang were they just
waiting for someone to walk by when the street was clear were they hiding did they have some sort of signal yeah
however the answers to these questions were irrelevant because the reality was they were getting closer by the second
if I reached out I could touch one before my arm was even fully straightened oh no oh that's too much in
my personal space yeah of course it is get out of my [ __ ] bubble no get out of my [ __ ] bubble
like get out remember how I said that I was scared to go and my sister wasn't yes this is where that shifts Ain and
her friend who were in front of me slowed down and came closer to me we were all frazzled with a look uh and
with a look silently asked each other what do we do for some reason that alludes me to this day the dominant
emotion that I was feeling wasn't fear but anger looking back I should have approached the situation with more
caution but I was pretty pissed I would be too I kind of love you were piss yeah
in my mind these had to be neighborhood boys picking on the little girls wearing
Tut chos and dresses exact and just trying to scare them so [ __ ] them so I immediately decided that if they were
going to try to get a rise out of us the best thing we could do was not give them
one yeah I whispered to my friend uh my sister and her friend keep walking yeah and we did what they didn't know was
that we were on the street we lived on so we just had to last them unfortunately for us they kept walking
too what oh I want to I want to junk punch every single one of [ __ ] so hard hit them with their golf clubs yeah like
G uh it almost looked like a security detail for a celebrity except you know uh the fact that they were threatening
us except a very weird one yeah kind of like Paparazzi actually in a situation like that logic is the first thing we
abandon we certainly had cell phones and could have called for help but we just kept walking besides even if we got our
phones out they were close enough to just grab them after what felt like several minutes but I'm sure it was only
a moment I switched tactics I must have heard this from some television show but
I turned to the closest one on my left and said in the most intimidating voice at 11 year sorry I said in the most
intimidating voice an 11-year-old girl dressed as Alice in Wonderland could muster I will cut you oh my God I'm
obsessed I will cut you honestly I would have ran honest I would get the [ __ ] out
of there I believe it cuz anybody dressed as Alice in Wonderland saying I'm to cut in
their face that's scary yeah you did the right thing I will cut you that's right
she said this is embarrassing but I hope it makes you laugh it did it's not embarrassing you should not be
embarrassed it's iconic I needed them to know that we were not scared and what they were doing wasn't working so they
should just give up it didn't deter these boys but it served to L confidence get a life get a life it didn't deter
these boys but it served to lend confidence to my sister and her friend they continued to walk and when they got
close to the mask person in the front they just pushed him out of the way with our heads up but not making eye contact
we continued because what else was there to do really yeah we could start to see
other trick-or-treaters in the distance our luck changed then and just as quickly as they came these MK boys were
gone Without a Trace what they just left they just like poofed into the air so they just menaced you and then left and
then left [ __ ] them that don't ruin somebody's Halloween like that I'll find them I will and we'll junk punch every
single one of them dressed like this dressed like this how scary would that be that that would show them clown meat
clown clown meat clown are you ready I love it the dread was replaced by a flood of relief and we were safe
again after that I don't think we resumed trick-or-treating and uh just went home for the night oh that's a
bummer I know I'm sorry understand it we did tell my mom what happened while we were tra uh trading candy in
the kitchen she wasn't thrilled that we engaged with them but wasn't too worried
it did sink in later that night to me at least how that situation could have gone
so differently yeah I can't say I was particularly traumatized but that was the last year I went trick-or-treating
oh that makes me sad you were 11 yeah oh that makes me really sad dude I was like
15 when I stopped trick-or-treating I got to the point where people are like we're not giving you we're not you're
too old for this yeah um however Halloween remains my favorite holiday and I celebrate it every year good thank
you for reading this and I hope everyone keeps it weird but not aware that you surround children and try to scare them
by banging baseball bats and golf clubs because that's just not cool P.S I retold the story to my mom as I was
writing this and she seemed confused and said was it really that bad didn't some
boys just follow you I suppose that when we told her at the time we left out a lot of details I guess and when I
recounted it like this she was appalled she somehow didn't know about the weapons or the clown MK and said that if
she did know that she would have been on the hunt for these boys parents okay oops I'm I knew that had to be a missing
link there cuz I was like if my kids come home and tell me that a bunch of boys with weapons and
clown Mouse surrounded can I interrupt you I know exactly what you would do she would do yep she whenever elen's mou she
always crunches ready and it's always so good and that would be I'd be like we're
we're off i' be like you ladies stay at home and I'd be like Mama and D are going to go call TI I'm going we're
going to go make some friends in the neighborhood oh I would and then we would never see those boys again like
when I tell you like the rage I had for you in that moment I wanted to [ __ ] strangle these boys Neary don't ruin
someone's Halloween Halloween's supposed to be fun and people need to consent in
being scared don't be a dick be cool don't be all like uncool don't do that and definitely don't [ __ ] scare kids
like what the hell get a life let them live she stressed as Alice in Wonderland I know like let her live go they they
did their costumes together for this yeah I'm not I'm not impressed by them that's impress of me much if you're
listening boys who did that I'm not impressed oh they're not listening because they are not this cool no
they're not they are Los they're not this cool they're not this cool they do not this is so cool they are not on this

that to my story but here we go I'm not a writer like Elena Q as sharing the link to the Butcher and the ren tiny
url.com thee butcher in the R I don't know if that still exists don't go there but but it's there uh congrats Elena
can't wait to read it update I got it all downloaded on my Kindle and ready to go so I hope this is not too convoluted
thank you so much be for Life the tale begins 5 years ago on hallowen I know I'm writing and sending
you this in July but the spirit store that lives in my heart can no longer be contained in this withered summer summer
husk of a body any longer I'm obsessed with you I've never related to a sentence more truly in a small town on
Japan's southernmost and largest island I hope I say this right caushi kushu I believe it's kushu yeah I will leave out
of out the prefecture in town as I still live here and don't want to cause any potential embarrassment for parties
involved I will call it goldfish town because as the nickname might may suggest it is famous for breeding around
30 different varieties of goldfish woot woot goldfish Town represents that's really cool in random that's the funnest
fact so a bit of background the first time I came to live in Japan I was working as an ALT assistant language
teacher I worked at two elementary schools and one Middle School helping teach English in the class classroom in
the classroom in the classroom it was a wonderful experience and such a privilege working with the students and
teachers a goldfish Town always had two alts and we split the schools as there was a total of two middle schools and
four elementary schools there was some quick map there was some quick Maths for you ladies which I will not be doing
again the alt departments were literally right next to each other so me and the other alt code name e were super besties
we always hung out shared meals had many a laughs and a cries in each other's apartment she is still a bestie to this
day I ride or die a ride or die [ __ ] you which you'll definitely see in this story a a final person to mention in is
our supervisor n de plume spelling French I loved it n de plume okay the sweetest woman alive and who we
literally referred to as our Japanese mother she's super kind and friendly and always made sure we were looked after n
the plume mama okay so let's get into the dirty Deets what happened on Halloween five nights ago tell five
years ago what happened on Halloween five nights ago that makes no sense I just got white on my finger oh no um
Halloween in Japan is more of an adult holiday going out drinking going to cough streum parties which is fun but we
don't get little Ghoulies and goblins running up to our doors screaming for the sweets or else threatening tricks I
kind of love that actually see I want I need the trick-or-treaters no I love the
trick-or-treaters but I hate driving on Halloween night cuz I get so nervous yeah I just won't well I have to yeah
yeah just won't yeah our Apartments were on the second floor in buildings facing
each other a literal minute walk and a lot of huffing upstairs this Halloween we had both planned quiet evenings me at
home reading cozy mysteries for my October mystery readathon drinking cocoa the nectar of fall and
at the gym being a ripped goddess I love how different both of your evenings wereing we didn't have any plans to meet
up the night that night and other than e anyone else coming to my door is a big it's going to be a no for me dog moment
yes yes yeah our Apartments were around 20 years old but thankfully had a modern
doorbell system camera where there was some when someone rang the doorbell I could see who it was on the screen in my
kitchen foreshadowing well that's cool quite handy for dodging the Jehovah's Witnesses yes they're out here no shade
just as I said I'm a millennial hermit crab who wants to chill in her shell in peace oh I feel that I feel that so I'm
home alone at my kitchen table drinking Coco enjoying my book Feeling the holy Halloween spirit when the doorbell rings
uh knowing it's E I think maybe I was getting some trick or treaters not e oh excuse me knowing it's not e sorry I
can't read how dare you I have a contact in uh knowing it's not e I think maybe I
was getting some trick-or-treaters panicking that I would have to share some of my time of the month all the
month stash can't chocolate with them uh but what I see freezes my blood on the screen is a person I can't tell the
gender as their clothes are baggy and the fact that they are wearing a large paper mâché spelling French again you
did great uh head the head has painted on wide staring blue eyes a small neutral mouth slightly open no and dark
brown hair parted to the side very serial killer style I hate it very not cutesy cutesy very not I stop breathing
because I'm afraid whatever is on the other side of the door will will hear me the doorbell rings again and I can see
the head move closer to the door cam like it's looking through the peephole get the [ __ ] off my property I slowly
slide over the table where I left my phone after grabbing it I wait until my little door cam goes dark and I hear
footsteps or seed down the stairs outside I think I stood there for a good 5 minutes my ears straining to hear
anything but feeling like the whole world is silent and only I exist oh that's beautiful that is beautiful you
are a writer yeah I run back to the screen to take a picture of the figure to send to E telling her not to worry
I'm alive but this thing was at my doorstep and if she could come back from the gym I would love her forever like
the true Queen she is she immediately called me saying there she'd be there in 15 minutes and to stay put with a knife
in hand next I messaged our supervisor Kay the photo now I know I know at this point you guys are all screaming to call
the police I was kind of thinking it in my head a little bit was I was but I wasn't judging you yet I wasn't but
honestly I didn't know what constituted an emergency in Japan fair enough fair enough and my Japanese is conversational
how do I explain that a soul sucking papier-mâché demon stood outside my door valid hard things yeah Kay also called
immediately and said she and her husband were on their way over thankfully they live 5 minutes away so I didn't wait
long to get a message saying they were coming up and I will never forget them coming up the stairs if I hadn't been so
scared at the time I would have laughed K my 5 foot tall supervisor is running up the stairs calling for me followed by
her 6'3 husband cigarette dang dangling cavalierly out of one side of his mouth and a golf club slung casually over his
shoulder [ __ ] icon a king that's what you use a golf club for not to scare little kids to save to protect your girl
yeah does anyone else smell a potential ghost hunting demon slaying show pitch here yes I kind of do oh my God that
would make a great show you should do that he's always got to have a cigarette or like a toothpick hanging out of his
mouth Yes anyway back to the papier-mâché waking nightmare I told them that I had no idea who this person
was and showed them the picture which they agreed was really [ __ ] up by that time e had returned home and also came
roaring up the stairs ready to slap this kindergarten craft project gone wrong I
assured her I was okay and said she should check the door cam to see if they came to her door too they hadn't since
she hadn't been visited by crafty killer TM I spent I spent the night at her place over the next few weeks I was on
high alert I was always waiting to hear the doorbell ring and see that face again but whoever had have been never
came back and I eventually settled down a bit that's when they strike fast forward to Before Christmas e and I were
having a small Christmas party with our goldfish Town alt Senpai a term of respect used for a person who is usually
older more experienced than your than you at life job Etc School Etc Senpai v v and her husband H were that's who they
were there was a period v was the pred V was the predecessor at my school but she
still lived in goldfish town and had met and married her husband there too we had
decided on doing a potluck dinner at our apartment and everyone arrived with plenty of yummies and toe oh love that
exactly as long as you know the people if I know your kitchen I'll eat it if I haven't seen your kitchen I'm not eat it
as we got to prepping we were just chatting and catching up when e brings up the Halloween incident about how
creepy it was and how scared we had all been after that dinner was almost ready and we were about to sit down when V's
husband started whispering to her in Japanese I'm nervous I couldn't really hear what they were saying but she then
said louder in English I'm sorry just say I'm Sorry by this point e and I were blatantly dropping those Eaves and
asking if everything was okay when V's husband said I'm sorry on Halloween that was me in The Mask shut up I love that
it came up at a Christmas dinner and that he was like I don't know how the was like say sorry [ __ ] apolog sorry
I was [ __ ] dumb struck Gob smacked flabbergast and other big shocked words I couldn't
[ __ ] believe it it was you why why did you come here on Halloween wearing that mask H went on to tell me that he
and V had made Halloween goodie bags and wanted to give one to me and Eve I love
that it was like a good kind thing and you were scared for months it was so pure the reason he didn't show up to EAS
place was because he didn't know which apartment she lived in my apartment actually used to be V's old place in her
alt day days so he was hoping that I would tell him when I answered the door for my treat but why that terrifying DIY
y serial killer face when a when a witches had or Dracula teeth would have gotten his trick-or treat intentions
across just fine honestly apparently the mask is from one of his favorite movies
a movie called Frank starring Michael fast Bender Who plays a lead singer in a band and he wears the mask because he
gives him the confidence to perform due to his mental health issues oh that sounds like a beautiful such intense I
love that I can't get over this is so pure but so scary this is hilarious I don't think I
have ever I can ever see that movie because of how much the MK scares the living [ __ ] out of me it is scary they
attached a picture but you know what H said it's very moving it sounds like it would be I attached a picture of the
mask from the movie but H's was handmade which somehow made it more terrifying yeah that usually does happen apparently
H really wanted to participate in Halloween re rivalry and now there was were enough Americans to do it we all
had a good laugh about it and honestly I'm glad we could solve the Halloween mystery sorry to pull the spoopy rug
from under you ladies but I hope it gave you some good Goosebumps and laughs thanks for reading my story and I hope
you keep it weird but not so weird that you make your own papier-mâché head from
an obscure Michael fast Bender film and try to drop off Halloween treats in a country that doesn't really celebrate
Halloween thus scaring the living [ __ ] out of you weird oh my God love you bye
also I don't know if we can zoom but this is the is the mask that would [ __ ] me up that's so scary that would [ __ ] me
right up yeah the [ __ ] up right the [ __ ] up that was so good and picture that
homemade no be I would have been [ __ ] in my pants along with you B I would have
done I love that that's like a rock star's mask I love it he's got to he's got to figure out the band Ghost oh my
God all right last one you guys last one listener tale Halloween time my dad attacked my friends and I with a

know or friends of my friends know and they still talk about it to this day and our old age as we reminisce about our
youthful Shenanigans from early high school and even Middle School Elder Millennial what what M younger
Millennial not jenzy Zenni friend jenzi still Millennial zillennial no like isn't that what you're Tex no it's just
Millennial it's just the younger years Sni zillennial is made up that's not a real generation yeah there you go I'm
gonna fight you before we get into the details I must give you some backstory on where
The Morbid scary movie loving Terror chasing Halloween devotion comes from in my family my grandma Marge I love that
Marge my dad's mom was a Huge Horror fan and collected pretty much everything she
could horror themed from stickers she'd put in sticker books to cups and even a Chucky doll that moved on its own okay
Marge is awesome Marge forever Marge forever yes I [ __ ] you not and I have cousins to back me up on this but that's
for another time that's awesome I saw some horror movies way too young as did a lot of my family members on my dad's
side same he was one of five kids so it's gotten pretty large with the kids having kids and then those kids having
kids and it has started many Traditions even though my grandma March passed away
when when I was still pretty young I'm sorry my family attributes our love of the spooky spooky to her as it's
trickled down our family line this is what you have to look forward to yes side note after she passed away I for
some reason wanted the Chucky doll and my dad's response was well don't come crying to me if it comes after you in
the middle of the night your dad sounds awesome needless to say that 5-year-old did not take the doll and now sits in my
aunt's basement in Atlanta now this spooky devotion hasn't struck with hasn't stuck with every family member
but most of us share the love of Halloween and all the things that Encompass that now to the meat and
potatoes and yams wink wink my story we on the Y growing up and only child my dad was like [ __ ] that multiple sibling
[ __ ] my parents always allowed me to have friends over mainly because it kept me entertained and out of their hair but
I digress my parents house became a spot that all of my friends knew they could come to over the years show up
unannounced and just chat have spur the moment play date or sleepover or even a large Gathering of friends oh your
parents are great I know that's awesome Halloween is Halloween was always hosted
at my house and my parents went all out decorations treats so many pizzas snacks
scary movies hello Blockbuster Galore it was always a blast we would do haunted hay rides spooky cave walks uh Trail of
Terror haunted houses you name it they took me and truckloads of my friends to it love best parents ever I can't wait
to be a parent like that oh I can't wait one of these particular Halloween weekends uh was when I was a freshman in
high school a large group of my friends and I went to see the new Texas Chainsaw
Massacre in theaters followed by multiple movies at my house with all the fixing we rented yes
rented the original Texas Chainsaw movies amongst others and hunkered down in my parents basement lights off of
course and got cozy now picture it one of those huge comfy couches and giant chairs that could fit like four people
on it and even more people on the floor and I'm sitting on the end of the couch closest to the wall and Tiny window that
Peaks outside after a while I thought heard something outside and asked did anybody else hear that of course they
all said no it was probably just the movie since we were watching a chainsaw movie and I thought I heard a chainsaw
duh that'll do it I just shook my head thought I was hearing things and kept watching the movie a few more minutes
later I heard the noise again but it was very clearly not the movie and my head snapped to the tiny window above my head
where I could tell it was now pitch black outside so I couldn't see anything so I said seriously you guys didn't hear
that and they said no Adrian you're dumb and you're trying to scare us there's nothing there third times the charm a
few more minutes later I heard this worring noise again and this time my bestie Elise also heard it at this point
we paused the movie and all anxiously awaited to hear the sound again nothing came quick side note earlier in the
evening my friends and I were talking about the [ __ ] that always happens in scary movies like let's split up or
let's hook up or let's go investigate all the classics right yeah so my buddy Alex jokingly said let's go investigate
and we all ran upstairs uh we all ran up the stairs that led right out the back door to our Drive driveway and backyard
keep in mind there are at least 10 of us if not more and Elise and I are the last
ones out the door it's pitch black and Incredibly quiet and we immediately regretted this decision as they do in
the movies of course our backyard was wide open to the other yards sow fences and the driveway wrapped around the
house with lights on the side that were currently off as Alex and a couple other
Brave dudes walked slowly around to look down the driveway slam goes the back door behind me and click goes the lock
moments later the lights on the side of the house switch on and in the driveway is a giant 6'4 man with a mask and a
chainsaw slowly hobbling towards us ready to tear us all apart in the calmest manner I'm obsessed with this it
was as if a small drip of water landed among ants as we all went in different directions some screamed and ran through
other backyards some froze in Terror and some of us like elely and I tried to frantically get back in the house but it
was locked I love that you discovered in that moment who everyone was in a horror
movie like you can now the debate is done you know who like it's no longer like oh you would be the person who does
this in the horror movie you're like nope you would be the person who runs in the next yard I would run into the next
yard that's your best bet as we were all trying not to pee our pants and vomit the insane amount of junk food we
consumed and many of us had dispersed the man takes the mask off and a giant and with a giant grin my dad starts
laughing hysterically your dad forever your dad I'm obsessed I love him my heart starts to slow a smidge as my
mother unlocks the back door and is also laughing hysterically both very very proud that their plan was so successful
as they should be your parents for [ __ ] ever Elite that is couple goals that is topnotch marriage and Top Notch
parenting as far as I'm concerned so obsessed with that wow my brother did this to your Exo myboyfriend after
watching Texas chaina massacre actually incredible yeah it took a bit for all my
friends to gather back up at my house as you can imagine one of the guys lived on
the Block behind me so he literally just went home he ran home to resume our evening but it was safe to say my dad
set a precedent that night and it was one that none of us have ever forgotten my dad notice big wave around town it's
always someone people remember and recognize and uh this just solidified his legacy now that I have kids of my
