so I don't know if I can say their Nam so I won't hey weirdos I've taken the liberty of changing my name in my
story glad we took that out not because I think it matters but because I think it's fun honestly I do too I like that
this might be my only chance to use the Alias I've been developing since high school Leah Baker boring yes but boring
is believable Street smarts that's honestly not boring that is Street smarts and why haven't I been working on
an alias no I feel like a I feel had plenty of time I feel remiss I'm GNA start working on an alias yeah you got
to anyway I want to start by saying I'm a silent fan I don't comment or engage with those who do but I listen to your
episodes the moment they come out honestly much respect thank you being a silent fan yeah I'm a silent fan of a
lot of things I'm a silent fan of almost everything except for ghost I the way that I was like I knew you were going to
that yeah I'm a silent the things that I listen to aside from Ghost yeah silent F
like like um podcasts and stuff like shows anything like that I'm pretty silent yeah unless I'm just like in
there being like this was great I loved this that's it but like very barely no I
get that so I appreciate it um so it says I first discovered your podcast when I was training for a half marathon
damn damn and I really needed something to distract me from the horror of longdistance running I don't blame you
people told me that I would learn to love running spoiler alert I didn't but I did come to love the way you tell
stories and roast the crusty panties off the whack ass perss you talk about on your show iconic never listen to the
haters telling you to change you did what no other podcast has done for me you two made me laugh out loud for a
whole hour as I shuffled around the track of a dimly lit Fieldhouse late late at night that's so nice I love you
and thank you for that stop doing that late at night okay that sounds weirdly specific let me explain I used to live
and work at a New England boarding school ohy which tell us which one offline built in the 1800s Latin motto a
president went there type of boarding school it is in a very rural area so there isn't much to do there besides
hang out at the local pub or in the Al fields that surround campus this is one of my favorite Beginnings to any story
same you give me a New England boarding school from the 1800s with a Latin motto
and a president one once been there and you can only hang out at the Local Tavern or the field surrounding said
school yeah it's kind of urban legend too it's delicious we just sipped it all up love
it because I was in I was in my mid 20s riddled with anxiety bored as hell and in charge of the largest storm on campus
100 plus underclassman girls I needed an outlet while many might prefer the pub in the comfort of a cold brusi with the
lads I prefer my misery Straight No Chaser I took to the fields literally I rang I ran long trails around campus and
began training for a half marathon unfortunately boarding school teachers live extremely busy lives you teach all
day you coach in the afternoons you have duty in the dorms making sure the kids get along and you know stay alive you
have meetings clubs Prof professional development Etc eating into every free hour of the day we seriously we didn't
have sick days and we worked on all those holidays people usually get off like Memorial Day this meant that if I
wanted to run I had to run before or after all my other duties that makes sense it does sorry I school did you
you're like I'm sorry I didn't he your life okay I started I often started my runs at 5 or 6:00 a.m. and after 8 or
900 p.m. this wouldn't have been a big deal if not for one very important thing the school was very haunted yeah I'm not
exactly a skeptic of the supernatural I was raised very religious and while I don't rock with organized religion
anymore I'm still pretty sensitive to what else might just be out there next time somebody comes to my door trying to
sell me on a religion I'm just going to tell them I don't rock with religion I don't rock with organized religion I
just don't rock with it that is kind of how I feel just how I feel yeah that's all if you can I just yeah go for it
yeah just because we don't perceive something doesn't mean it isn't there yeah when I first arrived on campus I
was quickly informed of some of the most harrowing Ghost Encounters I'd ever heard one faculty member spoke about her
child seeing a man looking through their window the little girl described him in
perfect detail down to his eye color what the [ __ ] apparently he came often and never tried to come inside he would
just observe what was going on in the living room my cooworker told me that she never saw the man but she was pretty
shaken by the encounter especially since they lived on the third floor of the building yikes [ __ ] was
levitating he was just floating I don't like that another coworker it's very Salem's a lot I don't know that another
coworker it's Stephen King another cooworker told me that people who stay overnight in the campus Health Center
hear footsteps outside their doors all night oh it is a pacing sound that goes away when they look to see who it is she
told me the School nurses believe it's the ghost of past night shift workers helping them out and checking up on the
sick kids I kind of love that I really like that that's that's a nice haunt so you get it Boarding School haunted
spooky but also the ghosts are nice question mark anyway back to me Leah Baker during Alias Leah Baker during my
Runner era I used to follow the cross country trail around the fields at night Guided by some sparse campus lights it
was actually very peaceful and I enjoyed being able to see the stars above on late summer nights I would watch the
lightning bugs dance over the tall grass around me blinking slowly as if they were soothing me and encouraging me on
my way I love that that's poetic and beautiful I preferred to run at night because of this but one day I decided to
switch up my routine and run in the early morning smart switch up your routine that's very smart that's when I
saw them a group of boys were playing soccer it was a little foggy but I could make out their goofy adolescent forms
you know the type skinny and all elbows they were all dressed in a similar sort of uniform as I got a little closer I
saw that the uniforms looked very old timey some of them had hats I'd expect to see on cast members of the Newsies
they didn't make any noise but they all CLE clearly were having fun and running around together kicking a ball I was
pretty shocked that any teenager would be up at sunrise let alone a group of them all while being dressed like Oliver
Twist so I shook my head once and looked back at the field they were gone I stopped dead in my tracks and felt
chills over my entire body I was suddenly very cold did I just hallucinate I thought honestly I was so
bored I wouldn't put it past myself I chocked it up to a weird morning in the fog playing tricks and finished my run
the fact that you saw an entire soccer team f and then just looked away and looked back and we're like I'm probably
bored like you were really bored Honestly though that makes so much sense being up that early in the morning
you're like I don't have the wherewithal for that cuz you're like do I want to investigate this no probably not n not
before coffee now soon the temperate fall weather I need fall we're almost there
that just made me like ache for Fall by we're almost there I mean two seasons to
go we're so close so close soon the temperate fall weather turned to a harsh cold winter as it does in New England
why God why but we're coming out of it as a certified weather wuss I cannot be caught outside the months of November
and February bundle up layers never so when it got too cold to run outside I moved indoors to the Fieldhouse that's
where you girls come in hey what is more boring than running through countless grass fields running circles around a
dimly lit indoor track my brain was melting and my podcast app suggested I try a true crime pod called morbid good
job true [ __ ] podcast app yeah I gave it a whirl and was immediately hooked it
was actually a guest episode look at that a guest episode good talking about the tale of a badass
Playboy Bunny it was Holly I bet oh was it Holly Madison who got [ __ ] over by the system and Men shock 100% that was
definitely Holly yep shout out to Holly yep so anyway there I am doing laps and listening to morbid when all of the all
of a sudden the light shut off in the building that's a no for me that's like horror movie initially I wasn't that
worried girl my school had a 24-hour campus security team that would make the rounds to various buildings maybe they
didn't see me and shut off the lights I thought so when I looped back around to the light switches by the door I flicked
them on and continued my painful Shuffle I had a long way to go I love that you were just like I'm going to continue
this round I'm going to keep running hell yeah that night's run was supposed to be 10 a
10mile oh my God and just going in circles for 10 miles you even wrote qring Noises yeah honestly a couple
minutes later I'm turning the far Bend of the track and the light shut off again oh leave get out of there annoyed
I shout into the darkness hey I'm in here no response son of a biscuit eating Bulldog I think I love that you thought
that I love that and flick the lights back on when I get to the switches again I try not to curse and in front of my
students so I have a few colorful non- curses locked and loaded at all times once again a couple minutes later the
lights flick off for the third time okay now I'm scared I pause Ash's voice in my
earbuds and say loudly bro what the hell no response I stand there in the darkness for a few seconds and suddenly
I start to get very cold this is a strange sensation as I was sweating a lot and I could feel my tomato red
cheeks burning bright red however I felt a very strong chill like the temperature in the whole building
had dropped rapidly remember the USS Salem that kind of cold is a different kind of cold that's
the like we have survived New England Winters and I've never felt that kind of it was just like to your bones kind of
cold and like afterwards too quick too now concerned I jogged across the track to the light switch and the thermostat I
flicked on the lights and the thermostat was at 66 as as soon as I read the number I felt warmer reassured I tried
getting back to my run was it the ghosts everyone had told me about no one had mention them being anti-health [ __ ]
like hello I'm trying to scrape together a couple endorphins and hide my big feelings and even bigger muscles I could
be at the pub but no I was in the freaking Fieldhouse at 9:00 p.m. on a Friday about 30 seconds I like that you
were try to hide your big feelings and even bigger muscles now after about 30 seconds into
this internal monologue the lights flickered annoyed I shouted knock it off I'm almost done just like that the
lights stopped flickering they stayed on the rest of the time and I was able to continue my run and finish my
introduction to your podcast hey thanks ghosties yeah shout out to the ghosts over the next several weeks I continued
listening to morbid on my runs and the same thing happened a few more times to varying degrees the ghosts had shenan
once and they chose to shenan again I see what you did there I like that however each time told them to
knock it off they did it honestly felt like they were trying to prank me or maybe they were annoyed that I was
huffing and puffing in their hangout Past Bedtime well I never saw the soccer kids again my ex-boyfriend and I started
to have dreams that ghosts were hanging out in my apartment throwing parties and
hosting game nights while we were laying sleeping in my bed that's kind of funny
I kind of love that yeah my dog lady seemed like she could see them and would stare around the room gazing at nothing
sometimes whining for no reason at all my cabinets would open by themselves and stuff would be moved but I never felt
threatened in any way it always felt like I was in the way I had the overwhelming feeling that they thought
of me the the way a superior alien race might think of a puppy cute but useless or the way teenagers think of
Millennials these days cringe a so anytime the shenanigans began to flare up I would tell the ghosts what I tell
my students grow up it never works with my students but it did work with the ghosts whatever
they were doing to bother me would stop for a while I really began to wonder if it was you two spooky gals that awakened
these prankster ghosts I did I take full responsibility that was me I did it Canon uh it was like they heard me
listening to yall and said to themselves this [ __ ] will be a good sport she'll
be down to hang with some Rascals having a little fun in the end I completed my first and last half marathon yeah hell
yeah good job and got a new job that had a better work life balance that makes me
happy for I love that well I haven't had any true Ghost Encounters since leaving
lady tragically passed away from cancer shortly after moving to a new city oh I'm so sorry I'm sorry even though she's
gone I can still feel her with me yep a ghost lady yeah a ghost lady that in my room by the foot of my bed or laying in
her spot next to me on the couch and my personal favorite every time I take a bath I can feel her spirit laying on the
bathroom floor near me like she used to love to do when she was still alive oh my cats do that I love that but anyway
thanks for reading and keep it weird but not so weird that you turn into a ghost
to prank a 20 something yearold going through a quarter life crisis and has the Absurd idea that accomplishing a
difficult and random task will somehow fix her it won't but therapy will peace and love Leah [ __ ] Baker Leah
[ __ ] Alias Baker I love you Leah [ __ ] Baker that was absolutely fantastic that was a good one

I stayed up many nights following these events not wanting to believe it myself because what where does something like
this actually happen except maybe a bad b-rated horror flick well I'll tell you where my neighbors and eventually my own
college dorm room for the 2009 to 2010 Academic Year I won't share the name of the school because I truly love that
campus and I don't want them to receive bad publicity a that's nice of you that is nice of you very thoughtful bear with
me because I have spent the better part of my life since this happened repressing the ever living [ __ ] out of
these memories but I will do my best to recount as much detail as I can there was a lot that happened so buckle up
weirdos because it is about to get spooky I'm ready and I believe you I believe you I believe that this happened
happened yeah yeah so this all started as we were approaching the Christmas holiday during my first semester of
college oh man first semester damn I barely made it through that and I didn't even see the devil you're like I'm
stressed already I know we lived in typical freshman style dorms one room cinder block boxes with two bare boned
bed frames bodily fluid proof mattresses a couple of shelves a TK and I'm really
stuck on bodily fluid past like I know that's correct that's a correct way of explaining that so gross to think about
do you are there places where you can like bring your own mattress I think you can bring your own mattress if you've
ever seen Gilmore Girls then Yale is one of them as long as you make r to get rid
of the old one which more not I would bring my own mattress b m yeah yeah let's let's go girls uh a couple shelves
a desk and a single sink with a medicine cabinet above it the walls desite despite
being the walls the walls despite being cinder block transmitted nearly every sound
from the neighboring room we shared with a wall shared a wall with including the
unmistakable whoosh of water moving through the pipes as if they turned on their sink old pipes old walls got to
love it out of nowhere for several nights in a row our neighbor's sink would abruptly turn on in the middle of
the night the sound of water running through the pipes was enough to wake even this tired college student or her
stuper or out of her stuper or I was like out the dramatic pause that came you were like or her stuper her St I was
like who's her stup who is it out of her stuper this went on every night for several nights despite all of the
activity I was hearing I never actually saw our noisy neighbors until we left our rooms at the same time several days
later the first thing I noticed was how tired she looked exhausted to be more precise I said what are you guys doing
in there every night so late coloring your hair I said this more as a light-hearted joke because a I didn't
want to sound like a total buzz kill dickwad and B I'd never met her before and you know first impressions yeah what
are you going to say yeah did you guys pee a lot hey you guys like always peeing in there she looked stunned when
I said this and looked at me still grinning I'm sure like a complete idiot and said we haven't been in our room for
the past several nights we've been sleeping in the common room downstairs I would what what the [ __ ]
that's that's when your stomach falls out of your butthole and you say excuse me you say what the [ __ ] come again
EXC qu there are many op any other options there's a few options of things to say
and we just named them we did my face fell I wasn't quite comprehending the words coming from her mouth she picked
it up first she went on to explain the weird things that have been happening in their room
starting with their vacuum turning on in the middle of the night unplugged hate that I'd leave I I
understand why they were sleeping in the common room Vu my room for me in the middle of the night vacuum my room for
me but not in the middle of the night not in the middle of the night no and it was in the center of their room no hate
it I kind of laughed it off thinking maybe it was the stress of upcoming finals and that was getting to her again
I've never met this girl who I will now call Mandy name changed for privacy Mandy Mandy he I didn't really think too
hard about this initial incident but apparently the rest of our dorms floor did because word got out about the
haunted room on the third floor as it always does as it should as it better that's so fun yeah at this point the
haunting had progressed to the sound of heavy footsteps walking back and forth in the room even when nobody was home a
few of us decided stupidly to do a ghost hunt stake out one weekend oh hell yeah
that's not stupid at all that's so fun and you had to see if the perfectly safe yeah see if the claims were really true
yeah you got to see if the devil's in there yeah might as well sounds like he is if the devil's at your dorm room you
got to find out why yeah you got to see what he looks like like hey what are you
doing yeah usually he comes down to Georgia is he the here so there were a handful of us truth Seekers huddled
outside the dorm room Friday night and we decided that the first experiment we would do was to sprinkle a layer of
sugar on the ground and leave the room to see if any of it would be disturbed I love that that was your first go-to wow
I've never heard of anybody doing that I would have done um flower probably why um I feel like you're going to get
better imprints more disturbance listen to this one you know yeah you took class but I was we'll with the sugar
That's funny though genius or stupid I don't know well great I think it's yeah yeah but we all did our part and
arranged a nice layer of sugar on the ground I took one last look around the room to double extra make sure that
nobody was hiding anywhere again hard to hide in a one room dorm with literally almost no furniture but I still peaked
under the beds and behind the curtains just to be absolutely good for you you got to make sure that's the thing then
we all filed out and closed the door within a few minutes the sound of heavy work boots pacing back and forth inside
the now empty room began we all had our ears pressed against the door listening intently and also rooted in fear it
wasn't until somebody gasped that we looked down and literally saw the [ __ ] sugar coming back out from under
the door what what is he doing said as if somebody on the other side was kicking
it back under the door frame we waited until that's Petty that's that is petty I kind of love that get your sugar out
here he's like d we're going to have bugs I mean what are you doing what are you doing doesn't the devil like bugs
though I don't know I don't know him oh none of us really do I think speak for yourself I mean I don't know now I'm
also just picturing as soon as you said work boots I'm picturing the devil wearing like some like cool like combat
boots like some like punk rocker in there just we're picturing different things I'm just picturing him in like
Tims I'm picturing like a like a rocker ah yeah I love that I like it I'm going to stay with this so we waited until the
commotion and footsteps inside the room stopped now I'm just picturing many different things of the devil uh not
surprisingly the neat layer of sugar that we put on the floor was completely destroyed and strewn about if that
wasn't horrifying enough upon further investigation someone or something had written in the sugar
H this is where flower would have definitely come in handy it would be clearer see that's true I'm just saying
I'm just saying I'm just saying she's doing the scientific method with your thing she's asking questions if that
wasn't horrifying enough upon further oh I already said that had written in the sugar hovering over the message we all
peered down to see the word hi staring back at us I'm obsessed I kind of love that the devil wearing like whatever
work boots or you think he's wearing he just like hi hey I just picture being like hi or like hi I'm picturing Luke uh
Luke cook from chilling Adventures of Sabrina that devil oh I shouldn't picture that I choose to to picture that
devil choose your fighter choose your devil I choose that one that's what I'm picturing I go I don't even think I
could say hi like him I think yeah I'm would never be sulted enough no none of us could no this devil in my mind is
like a little like you know he's like hi so I know what the [ __ ] am I right insert crying face emoji here we decided
to all file back out and just see if anything else would happen I'm honestly not sure if we heard too much more after
that because I was still trying to process what I'd just seen but we decided to take one last look and call
it a night after we had just been outside of the dorm for a few minutes there written under the word high was
I'm Joseph I love I'm Joseph hi I'm Joseph I love this i'ms I feel like I would be dying inside but
I would love this that I mean we have investigated how many haunted places and had like crazy [ __ ] happen but like but
somebody writing hi I'm Joseph would send me into orbit yeah 100% again not really sure of the reactions around me
at this point because I swear I had tunnel vision and heard nothing but white noise as my mind tried to Grapple
with the fact of what was in front of me I remember us helping clean up the sugar
and numbly walking back to our own dorms how do you just like sleep in your bed that night yeah knowing one wall away
Joseph like said hi to you Joseph is just over there in his boots kicking sugar in his
boots in his sugar cook his Sugar Sugar kicking buts boots his sugar kicking boots he's over there in his sugar
kicking buts Joseph Joseph in his butts joy in his sugar kicking buts his boots [Laughter]
why is that so funny I don't know but it really is get your butts on Joey there's
sugar to kick I don't know why that's so funny I'm crying it's butts something about
sugar kicking too is funny all right oh my oh my goodness not too long after oh my Joseph
hiss not too long after that Mandy told me that she decided to run a voice recorder during the entire night to see
if she'd catch anything at this point her roommate had moved out leaving only her in there to deal with [ __ ] up she
said you're on your own [ __ ] you're moving in with Joseph now she said you already have her room me I didn't sign
up for a trio oh la la la at this point her roomed leaving her on her own to deal

what did Joseph do Joseph is just chilling he said hi he's like hi on the tape you can clearly hear Family Guy
playing on the television in the background oh I'm like was that on or no I listened and listened until I heard it
cutting through the background noise a male voice appeared as if speaking directly into the recorder it said in
the most dead sounding raspy ungodly straight out of the Pit's voice hell is pain okay now this just sounds like it

girls okay well so he said by using the name Joseph it was clearly mocking Christianity I knew it I almost said it
but I didn't want to be that [ __ ] you know well you should have been that [ __ ] I want to be that [ __ ] I forget
it what instructions hot young priest gave her I'm just calling him that now she she he is cuz she forgot the
instructions yeah exactly L but clearly this was something that she was going to
have to take care of on her own which is like kind of lame of the hot young priest a little bit I was flored aren't
they going to come help is he really not going to come and cleanse your room apparently the answer was no but she
said the fear in his eyes told her all that she needed to know this was bad we tried his recommendations and even tried
praying in her native language Spanish but to no avail man I'm like you know when you like get coffee from laughing
too hard Mandy eventually moved out of the dorm because things had got so bad and she moved in with us by move in I
mean she was sleeping in a sleeping bag between my bed and my roommate's bed I don't blame her I don't either we only
had a week or two before finals and we could finally get the hell out of there M's haunted dorm that we shared a wall
with had been cleaned emptied and locked by the University staff they said don't
go in there they said nobody's cleaning up your sugar [ __ ] nobody had a key anymore let me just drive this point
home nobody had any access to this room got it it we continued that is the devil the devil the devil we continued
to hear the heavy footsteps pacing back and forth in the room we heard the medicine cabinet open and slam shut we
heard what sounded like pencils rolling up and down the desk tension was on an all-time high maybe he was just writing
a novel perhaps and just getting really frustrated with it slamming the medicine
desk the medicine desk the medicine whatever cabinet that's that's it that's it slaming the boots his buts were still
going tension was at alltime High we were all so stressed from living in a paranormal hellscape on top of studying
for finals and living on top of each other and Mandy just snapped after a particularly particularly loud March of
the boots March of the boots March of the boots Mandy stomped her way over to the shared wall and started banging on
it she yelled hey [ __ ] we're trying to study shut the [ __ ] up damn what a legend right truly what a legend
yeah apparently it didn't find it so amusing the foot foot steps stopped where they were across the room pivoted
I [ __ ] you not I could hear the heels of the buts pivoting in the cheap dorm room
carpet and they even marched to the opposite side of the wall directly in front of Mandy's face separated only by
wall a binder on the shelf above her head literally flew off the shelf in the opposite direction that it was leaning
we all ran out out as fast as our freshman legs would carry us damn this is horrifying her sweet Angelic parents
actually paid for us to stay in a hotel that night night that should be the end of our problems right wrong wrong yeah
that night as we were all drifting off to sleep the entire Hotel bed began began violently shaking like all four
legs took their turn coming off in the carpet and Landing back down with a thud except speed it up times 20 and that's
what it felt like oh the whole thing only lasted for a few seconds but I was frozen in fear I was sharing the bed
with Mandy and neither of us moved neither us neither of us even said anything we were so scared but so
exhausted we eventually fell asleep but the next morning I asked her if she felt
the bed violently shake the night before unsurprisingly she confirmed my fear we
ended up moving to a different hotel for the rest of finals week and luckily no more incidents for the rest of our stay
I came back the next year as a sophomore but Mandy understandably did not return
yeah [ __ ] that the trauma from the past year just was too much I kept an eye on
the window of her old dorm room during this time there was a light on in there for the first couple of weeks of school
but after that the room went dark for the rest of the year I guess the new tenant was also experiencing what it was
like to rub elbows with Joseph Joseph anyways that's the story of how I accidentally became neighbors with a
demon my freshman year of college hope you enjoyed me reliving my deepest repressed memories keep it weird friends
Lisa Lisa that was an epic tale that was amazing that's the scariest college experience you could possibly have I
feel one of them I love it yeah I'm pretty obsessed I want some more of it I want to know where this school is I
won't tell I promise I just want to know so I can go to there go to there I want
to research about there now I want to know what the [ __ ] was going on and also
hot young priest got a downgrade though because I'm like you're not going to go in the room yeah [ __ ] part of being a
hot young priest is you walk into a demon filled area and you start being a hot young priest so what you signed up
for hot you're just walking up there being a hot young priest and you're like I'm not going in that room then you've
lost it you lost what am I even looking at right now go away yeah are you not even going to protect me ew yeah you're

us working moms feel less less than it is not easy but would not trade it for the world thank you for saying that I
appreciate that yeah for 2 years I attended Bradford College which was is in havil Massachusetts this school is no
longer called Bradford College as it shut down at the end of my second year due to the president embezzling all the
money in skipping Town Google it we protested and everything but my tale is not about that
piece of [ __ ] garbage human the school is like 150 years old or some [ __ ] like
that and evolved throughout the years I it was a hospital an all girl school and
then a college I love that it's was a hospital Hospital first I know that's so cool whenever a hospital turns into a
school [ __ ] always goes down and if it's abandoned now I want to go to there yeah totally no of course not of
course not uh when looking from the street at the school there is a main School building which was used when I
was there as dorms and business offices and was the building used for the hospital from the same road you can see
two out buildings one is a theater and the other is just a building of classrooms all three of these buildings
are connected by tunnels my first year of college I lived in the main building and never had to leave as the cafeteria
was in my building too I was very pale that year all these buildings have their own hauntings main building haunting
this building was where the hospital was run and it has four floors and was a beautiful it has a beautiful ornate
wooden staircase that made you feel like you lived in a mansion we would sometimes hang out on the stairs as they
were carpeted and stupid kids hang out in the weirdest of places since we were badasses in college with no real adults
in sight we would hang out all over the building at all hours of night one night
we were just there chilling and we heard on the fourth floor the sound of kids giggling and what sounded like running
up and down the hallway fun fact the fourth floor was the children's ward of the hospital we looked at each other and
kned back to our rooms we often would hear this commotion around 3:00 a.m. ick in the same main building there's one
room that is basically a gateway to Hell okay I like how casually you said that just like basically basically kind of I
am 100 years old now now so I'm not 100 same so I'm not 100% sure the exact number of this room but it is a Corner
Room things would be moved when the occupant was out and would fly across the room when they were in no one joked
about the going on in this room and it was always cold the story SL Legend is some hippie opened a gateway to Hell and
never closed it it's kind of like unfair that the hippies get blamed I kind of love that though that's so scary and I
totally believe it no amount of sage we were College kidss we all had Sage cuz want we were WN to be hippies and well
pot was going to clear that room now for the priest in the main building is he hot and young is it a hot young priest
along with the with being a hospital it was an all girl school that was of course run by nuns and had a resident
priest one of the priests was so evil ah oh he's not a hot young priest he's not
a hot young priest everybody danger danger not a hot young priest one of the priests was so evil he would molest the
girls and shame them into silence because priests one of these girls was so distraught that she jumped from the roof
of the main building and the kitchen building to her death oh my God this woman in yellow haunts the cafeteria
that is in this building the Lunch Ladies do not joke about this and the woman comes and goes even during the day
she will move things on the staff to the point where they have to say stop it lady my friend who worked with shity
decided to check it out one night shity shity my S I was laugh I couldn't let it
go I love how you go wait wait shut the [ __ ] up I got to make fun of you honestly I get it I would have done the
same thing Shakur yeah my friend who worked with Shakur decided to check it out one
night uh the woman in yellow started typing on the cash register they kned on out of there and refused to go back to
do the rounds ever again damn the theater this ghost is a little girl who is mischievous and likes to mess with
the lights and likes to hang out in this little winding staircase that leads to the balcony of the theater she's very
active and shows herself to many I've never seen her but the theater teacher would have to ask her to not mess with
them during performances that's so funny I think she might have been another suicide and had jumped from the catwalk
of the stage oh that's so sad I want to find this man even if he's dead and kill
him all over again seriously I'm GNA find this priest I'm going to [ __ ] his world up yep now for the haunting that
my friend we'll call him Andy experienced he decided to do a documentary on the school in the
hauntings I love that's cool when he was editing his film in the technology lab the lights and computers would go off
and on and it took him forever to edit then when he went to show the film which was in a theater in the library building
we only got to see the first five minutes somehow the film would not play and the lights were not working oh we've
had that happen with episodes yes one episode in particular remember that one episode that like it wouldn't let us
continue recording it was crazy that scared the [ __ ] out of me yeah that was scary we all kned out of there for this
documentary he had invited a psychic to come and walk through the school so the day before she arrived at the school her
apartment smelled like a swamp the same smell that existed on our campus as we had a pond that ran through parts of it
what the psychic met the little girl and I think other ghosts but we never got to
see the documentary this same friend woke up a couple of times paralyzed and felt like someone
was on top of him this happened in the same dorm that the priest reported to have molested the girls in oh that's
awful the last haunting happened to my security Shakur Shakur guard friend they were patrolling the grounds during
winter break no one was staying on campus and it was deserted they were in the library building where we tried to
watch the documentary and saw a man dressed in priest's black cloak and big rimmed hat walk out the door fight him I
just got to chill fight that [ __ ] he went after the guy into the room but the man was gone there was
a door in that room going to the outside but no footprints in the snow the priest
just disappeared and you guess it the guard noed the [ __ ] out of there damn that's terrifying well that is my tale
and I hope it made sense and I hope you keep it weird but not so weird that you haunt poor poor Stoner kids just trying
to have a party I've pasted pictures of the college in one of the tunnels um but
if you Google haunted Bradford College you can see more mysterious pictures oh oh I know this college
yep definitely Google this college guys and they would use those tunnels to get to class sometimes those tunnels are
scary as [ __ ] not those not those tunnels not these tunnels no [ __ ] that Lara that was a really good one Lara oh
this is a beautiful campus it is the most haunted ones always are I really want to go to there I want to go to
there I want to go to there maybe we will maybe all right this will be the last one last one and it's going to be
the haunted school and the Hungry Ghost it's like a children's novel yeah let's see hey spooky ladies my name is Sam and
you can please call me Sam can I call you lamb nope Sam can we call can we call you game I must start off with the
usual I came across your podcast after needing something to take the edge off see I'm a pregnant teacher who was no
longer allowed wine or cold cuts and was searching for something to soothe my soul oh I love a cold cut we could so
sooth your soul like wine and cold cuts that's a big compliment yeah you both popped into my life and I'm truly
thankful to share my days with you teaching through a pandemic morning sickness and now heartburn have been no
fun but hearing you both share your humor and knowledge with the world makes it a lot brighter don't stop what you're
doing and I hope one day our paths will cross Sam yeah I hope so too that was so
sweet and at this point I hope your baby rocks cuz they're probably like hell yeah your baby rock Sim pandemic babies
are crazy huh yeah yeah you one how's how's that going yeah PS my spooky crotch Goblin is due in November and
please please know I will be raising not only a strong female but also your newest group of morbid fans hell
yeah anywh who to my story right from college being a desperate young man I accepted a job at an old Catholic uh
school near my college hot young priest hot young priest young priest are we this this isn't haunted colleges this is
hot hot young priest except we broke it with the last one yeah yeah well maybe this will be this will make another yeah
it'll make up for her but well who knows I haven't read it so even though the pay
was crop I felt right at home and crop did I say crop even though the the pay was crop I think that might have been
like my valley girl coming out even though the pay was crop was crop take the 10 to the four to the five
C crop R so even though the pay was crop I felt right at home I was eager to get
my foot to the door flash forward to starting my 13th year of teaching I still love what do Lu number 1 oh yeah I
just need a few more naps and glasses of wine than I used to I also need to specify that I am not Catholic not that
there's anything wrong with that but I was hired because who can say no to a spunky blonde who's willing to work her
ass off for less than $330,000 a year not this lady nope let's just say they were they were more than okay with me
not converting I would consider myself spiritual I believe in God and Heaven spirits but I also believe in women's
right to choose lgbtq plus community and protecting trans kids gun control Etc hell yeah Sam Sam Sam Sam Sam Sam Sam
Sam Sam okay climbing off my soap box to get to the spooky part the school was really old run down but beautiful and
the best thing was it was a church then a a Convent yay for adorable nuns and then turned into a crumb a crumbling
School many years later then it just turned into a crumb then it was a crumb we little crumb little crumb little
crumb that's a spooky ass Evolution yeah going from a church to a Convent to a kids Catholic school and then to a crb
and then to a crb to a CR so let's just say the let's just say entering the building gave off a certain feel to it
yeah maybe that was just the mold in the walls the bats that needed to be regularly caught that needed to be
caught monthly but something always felt like it was just there with you or maybe
that could have been the many jesuses on the cross that lined the walls what it was that's definitely what it was spooky
when the building was used as a Convent one unique feature was that it had a tunnel tunnels tunnels in the far corner
of the building why the hell would that be you might ask well back in the day when the town's first hospital was
adjacent to the Covent uh yeah Convent I keep saying yeah what to the you're thinking right yeah nuns would use the
tunnel to enter the hospital at a moment's notice when somebody was nearing the end of their life they would
be called over to provide some comfort and help give last rights a Catholic tradition of a special prayer when
someone is dying I never saw this tunnel myself but our custodian said it was locked up but he would open it from time
to time to make sure the tunnel wasn't collapsing I would have given my right arm to tore that tunnel but I had to
keep up appearances that I was a mature adult who was in charge of children oh never do that yeah no random side note
the school had all the original Windows Doors Hardware old and crappy but cool and the railings in our school were
called nun catchers nun catchers as they were the old style of railing with a long pole and the nuns would be running
down the stairs but get snagged by the poles on their long habits I never knew that was a thing I
can't I need to go on a DI of like Catholic School [ __ ] nun catchers nun catchers that's awesome I think I called
them nun Grabbers I like that nun catchers walking my students down the stairs always felt so cool to think of
how many people had walked this building before me and how many nuns were snagged
as I caught my teacher sweaters on them one day I was alone in my classroom during the summer months prepping for
the following year see why they hired me I older and wiser and I thought and I wouldn't be caught dead there during my
break of course not working in my room I heard the doorbell yes an old school doorbell as we kept our school secure
during the day and you had to be let in if you didn't have a key looking out the
window I saw a FedEx truck knowing the office was closed I went to get the door as I saw he had a few rather large boxes
I ran down the stairs my room was on the second floor signed for the packages held the door and said goodbye and thank
you to the delivery driver excuse me as I closed the door and turned to go up the stairs I heard a cupboard slam shut
if you stand at the front of the school you're greeted by a split level along with a very along with a very ripped
Jesus on the cross a very ripped Jesus Jesus says Can you spot me one set of stairs goes up to
the classroom do you even lift bro imagine Jes just s looking at you and saying do you even LIF bro iconic
they they pull the LK alarm for Jesus Fitness he definitely gets the LK alarm right one set of stairs goes up to the
classrooms and the other goes down to more space the noise came from the downstairs area I would have Shi myself
yep this area was underground but still had very tiny windows on top it held a multi-purpose room along with our
teacher Lounge you know because what says come enjoy and relax with your lunch in the
basement yeah I know the sound came from the staff Lounge I heard it again this time a bit softer I stood like an idiot
on the stairs this set of stairs going up of course but I thought I should probably call out in case it was a
hungry coworker I should do that before I [ __ ] my pants because if good old Carol comes walking up with a salad in
hand I'm never going to be able to come back to work so I called out hey Mr John
is that you Mr John I thought it might have been our custodian as he works during the summer months no answer and
again standing like an idiot I heard it The Sound I knew exactly what it was but
I will never forget it I heard a drawer slide and slam open then what sounded like if you took your hand placed it on
a pile of Cutlery silverware metal SP serving spoons Etc and began to violently shake your hand around oh like
like that was a very good way of describing that I know exactly what that sounded terrifying the sound was so loud
it sounded like the drawer itself was shaking loose from the wall I took one final listen and bolted up the stairs
yeah [ __ ] that why not just go outside you may ask well my car keys phone and purse were all in my classroom and I
needed to go there first I feel that once to my room having passed a second rip Jesus on the cross should have
pulled the LK alarm I closed my door and I called my sister I needed a minute to
muster the courage to bolt I needed to leave my room past the rip Jesus and down the same set of stairs to the
school code you should have grabbed the rip Jesus Off the Wall the power of rip Jesus compels
you the power of leg day compels you these quads I would need to turn back oh I was
going to say rip Jesus again put the code in and leave but I was dreading doing that with my back toward the
stairs leading to the basement on the phone with my sister I ran down the stairs punched in the code and took the
quickest look into the basement before slamming the door behind me all was silent and still except for my heart
beating in my ears and my sister on the line telling me I was okay how the hell would she know once out in the parking
lot I had another scare as I frantically looked around the parking lot I saw no cars no bikes no other teachers not the
custodian not even the godamn Pope had been in the building with me oh no I had been alone in that building oh no thanks
ladies for listening and keep it weird take it away Ash but not so weird that you don't do like day with Jesus it's
true don't do that I hate that that freaks me out I can hear that sound in my head of like metal clanging together
and it's very like hospitall like too like that kind of like the metal drawer clanging the trays back yeah like that
just freaks me out e there was no hot priest in that one in that one damn just a Hungry Ghost that's okay that was a
fun one that was a fun one I liked that the spooky schools was definitely a good
choice it really was and we'll be dressed up for the next one we'll we'll plan ahead just going to that yeah we'll
