WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:06.879
Nature is running a muck. Rabbits
are terrorizing Florida. Otters are stealing surfboards.

2
00:00:07.120 --> 00:00:10.439
There's an island full of dolls just
waiting for you to visit it.

3
00:00:10.679 --> 00:00:13.199
And hey, I have a cheer
for sale. You would love it,

4
00:00:13.240 --> 00:00:24.760
and trust me, it's definitely not
haunted. Get count. It's monthly spooky.

5
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:37.799
Well, my friends, Michelle,
do you want to say it?

6
00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:42.359
Hi? Wait, what it's that
time of the mom Oh no, I

7
00:00:42.399 --> 00:00:46.719
don't want to say that. You
just want me to be the one that

8
00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:51.119
said it. Yeah, yeah,
no, that's all right. Just throw

9
00:00:51.479 --> 00:00:54.399
throw all Henny boy under the bus. I get it. No, No,

10
00:00:55.719 --> 00:00:59.000
this is monthly spooky. I don't
know why I feel the need to

11
00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:03.159
say that after you just heard the
announcer and music package tell you that.

12
00:01:03.840 --> 00:01:08.719
But that is what we have here
today. It's monthly spooky and we are

13
00:01:08.799 --> 00:01:15.920
getting close to the spooky season.
Yeah, you seem surprised. Are you

14
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:21.000
aware that it's August and about to
be September? I mean not really?

15
00:01:23.920 --> 00:01:27.079
Fair? Fair, fair, well
it is. So we're about to head

16
00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:33.840
in September, which is my birthday
month. Yea, so hooray I'm gonna

17
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:38.159
be officially I can't argue any more
closer to forty than I am to thirty

18
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:46.719
substantially, So that's exciting and and
no, but it's a big thing.

19
00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:49.760
Uh not my not being thirty seven, but I mean it's a big thing,

20
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:56.519
the spooky season. So are you
do you have any big plans for

21
00:01:56.560 --> 00:02:04.000
the upcoming Halloween time? No?
Not at all. What kind of plans

22
00:02:04.000 --> 00:02:07.439
would I have? I don't know. Maybe there's a decoration you're excited to

23
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:10.120
put up, or a d i
y thing you're excited to do because you're

24
00:02:10.120 --> 00:02:15.719
a very crafty human being. No, no, no, I mean I

25
00:02:16.000 --> 00:02:21.080
I just like fall. But that's
about it. You just fall, like

26
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:28.439
fall over. Yeah, I like
fall, just down some stairs. Well,

27
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:31.120
I am excited about Halloween. I
don't have a big in plans,

28
00:02:31.199 --> 00:02:38.639
big plans for decorating the house beyond
my usual lights and stuff, because I

29
00:02:38.680 --> 00:02:45.400
am very stressed out. Unfortunately,
my dog Chicano is not in remission from

30
00:02:45.400 --> 00:02:52.800
his cancer, so we have to
go after some more treatment options. So

31
00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:59.520
I'm saving money back. I'm unfortunately
no, no seventeen foot tall skeleton this

32
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:06.680
year. I'm sorry. I can
really out of real bones. Where do

33
00:03:06.719 --> 00:03:13.520
you get the real bones? I
don't know. You know, don't you?

34
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.840
You do know? I don't know
if I know. Oh no,

35
00:03:17.039 --> 00:03:22.840
that's even worse. This is like
so many layers of deniability. This is

36
00:03:22.879 --> 00:03:27.599
worrying me very much. But to
get the thing over with, If you

37
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.000
want to help with Chicano's cancer bills, I do appreciate it, go to

38
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:35.599
Weekly Spooky dot com and click on
help my Dogs. I really do appreciate

39
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:38.400
all the help we've gotten. Unfortunately, after all the chemotherapy, it looks

40
00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:43.439
like we still need like another three
to five to six to seven thousand dollars

41
00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:47.639
worth of veterinary treatment. I'm gonna
do it, but I'll just go into

42
00:03:47.639 --> 00:03:54.800
debt. So why are you making
a face? Oh nothing, what is

43
00:03:54.840 --> 00:04:00.919
it unrelated? Okay, fine,
we'll see, we'll see. What does

44
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.080
that even mean? I'm in a
goofy ish okay mood, I don't know.

45
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:08.719
This is the perfect way to wrap
up August, which has become brutally

46
00:04:08.800 --> 00:04:14.159
hot out here in Ohio. Dude, well, and I have, like

47
00:04:14.520 --> 00:04:16.959
David O'Hanlon, one of our writers. He's out in I want to say

48
00:04:16.959 --> 00:04:23.120
Missouri, and or maybe it's yeah, I think it is Missouri. He

49
00:04:23.199 --> 00:04:26.720
was telling me that it's like one
hundred and ten degrees there. Wow.

50
00:04:27.480 --> 00:04:30.920
Yeah, that like people's air conditioning
is just it's just a shrugging emoji when

51
00:04:30.920 --> 00:04:33.800
you turn it on. Yeah,
that's why you don't put it on at

52
00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:40.680
all. Say well, but you
like melting, you're you you. I've

53
00:04:40.759 --> 00:04:43.680
learned that many women of your stature, you know, being like kind of

54
00:04:43.680 --> 00:04:49.120
a short person that you guys like
to rehearse for living in the blazes of

55
00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:54.839
hell one day. I mean,
I don't think the blades of a hell

56
00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:58.360
are going to be like eighty five
degrees, but sure. No, that's

57
00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:02.639
why they practice. It's in It's
it's gradual immersion therapy. Huh. I

58
00:05:02.680 --> 00:05:08.399
mean maybe because I do get more
tolerant of heat all the time. So

59
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:14.000
see there you go, okay,
fair enough please? Oh no, I

60
00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:17.560
was just gonna say it is not
hot here. Uh the high here is

61
00:05:17.600 --> 00:05:24.040
eighty The high tomorrow is seventy three. You suck. Yeah, today the

62
00:05:24.079 --> 00:05:28.439
high here's like eighty seven. That's
not hot. I mean it's warm.

63
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:30.560
I mean no, it was much
worse at the start of the week.

64
00:05:30.560 --> 00:05:33.120
It was like ninety seven degrees outside. That's really hot. That's you.

65
00:05:33.199 --> 00:05:36.600
No, no, now, it's
just now it's it's warm, but we're

66
00:05:36.639 --> 00:05:42.319
so frustrated from it being hot that
we're still going to complain about eighty three

67
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:45.120
or eighty five or eighty six,
you know what I mean. It's it's

68
00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:48.199
because we're so sick of it now. But it's better now, so you

69
00:05:48.240 --> 00:05:54.279
should be able to go outside and
go like that is not the American way.

70
00:05:54.480 --> 00:05:59.519
Okay, we want better now.
Yeah, I know, Consarnet.

71
00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:06.519
So before we talk about things that
aren't sad, depressing or hot, how

72
00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:11.959
do you feel about the CRYPT because
I'm honestly feeling very like insecure. I

73
00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:15.279
really wanted you to like the work
I've been doing with the recording crypt and

74
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:19.920
uh so what do you think.
I think it looks really good. I

75
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:25.120
know you've been putting a lot of
effort into it. So yeah, my

76
00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:28.000
new thing is I found out that
if you nail things to the wall,

77
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.279
you get to hit it, hit
the nail with a hammer, and I

78
00:06:30.360 --> 00:06:38.120
really need that level of relief.
Yeah. Yeah, So that's why that's

79
00:06:38.160 --> 00:06:42.439
why they're Oh that's awkward. It's
it's an odd number. That's why they're

80
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:48.399
twenty seven framed original posters from the
presidential campaign of Eike Eisenhower. Yeah,

81
00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:54.279
I mean that was one of them. Was scary enough. You don't like

82
00:06:54.399 --> 00:06:58.759
Ike. I think he's fine.
I just don't even know where you found

83
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:06.040
them. Someplace you found all those
human bones. Oh okay, yeah,

84
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:12.319
I don't know, so I know, I do not know. Okay,

85
00:07:12.680 --> 00:07:16.000
this is a good game we've got
going here. Take that. See when

86
00:07:16.040 --> 00:07:19.480
we talk on the phone, the
CIA is listening. Now we have all

87
00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:26.399
the spooky's listening and the CIA.
Yeah, so that's ideal. I would

88
00:07:26.439 --> 00:07:29.720
say, yeah, I think that's
good. Well, is anything else going

89
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:32.720
on? And you're part of the
world other than you not feeling particularly hot?

90
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:40.240
I mean no, I mean I
have all of a sudden a bunch

91
00:07:40.240 --> 00:07:43.759
of home inspections. So that's good. That's great. No, that's really

92
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:47.120
good. Yeah, I'm sure that'll
go away soon enough. But you know

93
00:07:48.160 --> 00:07:53.680
that's the spirit. Yeah. I
would assume that home buying would would be

94
00:07:54.480 --> 00:08:00.199
at its height in the not super
colder hot seasons like spring and fall.

95
00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:03.199
That would be my assumption. I
believe it's actually at its height in the

96
00:08:03.240 --> 00:08:07.319
spring and summer. Well, that
makes sense too, But yeah, I

97
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.160
don't think this really has anything to
do with that. I don't really know

98
00:08:11.319 --> 00:08:16.639
why I have inspections when I have
inspections. And also none of these are

99
00:08:16.720 --> 00:08:20.480
for people who are buying houses,
so oh what are they for people who've

100
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:24.360
already bought houses? I think one
of them is for someone who's going to

101
00:08:24.439 --> 00:08:28.240
start renting a house, Like going
to start is like a landlord going to

102
00:08:28.319 --> 00:08:31.519
start renting out a house. Sure, so like that kind of stuff.

103
00:08:31.200 --> 00:08:39.159
Okay, so there's there's an entrepreneurial
scent in the air for that guy,

104
00:08:39.480 --> 00:08:43.799
for that one guy, that one
guy. Yeah, well fine, Well,

105
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:50.519
Chell, I'm very excited because before
we get to the spooky news this

106
00:08:50.639 --> 00:08:56.039
month, there's kind of a trend
in some of the spooky news. Yeah,

107
00:08:56.120 --> 00:09:01.000
that I'm really excited to show you
because I've been waiting all week not

108
00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:07.360
telling you because I didn't want to
spoil it. So and after we get

109
00:09:07.360 --> 00:09:11.960
done with talking about the spooky news, we have a very special topic for

110
00:09:11.000 --> 00:09:16.039
this month's show, one that I'm
really looking forward to talking about. It's

111
00:09:16.120 --> 00:09:20.279
not quite the deep dive we normally
do. We're going to dive into be

112
00:09:20.440 --> 00:09:26.440
Shocked mirror dot co dot UK's most
terrifying places on Earth. Okay, so

113
00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:30.360
what we're gonna do is We're gonna
talk about the most terrifying places and earth.

114
00:09:30.519 --> 00:09:33.159
If we need to, we can
do a deep dive into each one

115
00:09:33.240 --> 00:09:35.759
individually, and I want you to
rank, on a scale of one to

116
00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:43.679
ten, how terrifying you find that
place. You'll be surprised about how terrifying

117
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:48.559
I don't find places. I won't, but the audience will be. So.

118
00:09:48.679 --> 00:09:52.440
But we're gonna go to a quick
commercial break from our friendly sponsors,

119
00:09:52.440 --> 00:09:56.360
and when we get back, we're
gonna dive head first into the Spooky News,

120
00:09:56.360 --> 00:10:01.679
and I do mean dive head first, because the first story involves the

121
00:10:01.799 --> 00:10:20.519
ocean. Right after this we are
back with the Spooky News, the Spooky

122
00:10:20.679 --> 00:10:26.440
News. So, Chell, these
first three stories all have something in common,

123
00:10:26.879 --> 00:10:31.000
and not just that they're spooky,
but they're about animals. Oh I

124
00:10:31.000 --> 00:10:35.960
thought they're going to be about the
ocean. No, we had that though,

125
00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:39.120
Remember that, Remember that period where
it seems like every month they were

126
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.559
talking about the ocean and sharks and
yeah, no, no, these are

127
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:48.519
not quite that, but they are
about animals and strange things going on with

128
00:10:48.559 --> 00:10:54.279
them. Okay, So this one
is from your favorite news source, NPR.

129
00:10:54.720 --> 00:11:01.759
Yeah, also known as No No
Pulse Required. Or narcoleptic Public Radio.

130
00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:07.799
Hey, thank you for tuning into
monthly Spooky. Do you ever when

131
00:11:07.799 --> 00:11:11.360
you're recording yourself chill? Do you
ever just start doing NPR voice because you

132
00:11:11.399 --> 00:11:15.159
listen to it so much? No? I don't. Also, I don't

133
00:11:15.200 --> 00:11:18.000
think about that at all. Do
you have an NPR voice? Could you

134
00:11:18.000 --> 00:11:22.240
try one right now for us?
I don't know. All you have to

135
00:11:22.279 --> 00:11:28.559
do is get really close to your
microphone and then talk like you don't want

136
00:11:28.559 --> 00:11:35.080
to wake anyone up. I don't
know how to do it. I mean

137
00:11:35.519 --> 00:11:39.039
I guess another option is just sound
really scared. That works too good?

138
00:11:39.080 --> 00:11:46.279
Dab well. This one from NPR
dot org says an otto turned outlaw continues

139
00:11:46.320 --> 00:11:52.120
to evade wildlife officials in Santa Cruz. Oh. I think I heard about

140
00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:56.919
this well. I mean you listen
to NPR. Oh. Right, And

141
00:11:56.080 --> 00:12:01.039
Ottor in California is on the run
from local and federal authorities, wanted for

142
00:12:01.080 --> 00:12:09.759
aggressively confronting locals and stealing surfboards at
a popular beach. Cool. Okay,

143
00:12:09.799 --> 00:12:15.879
First of all, if it says
the otter was described as wearing sunglasses and

144
00:12:15.919 --> 00:12:20.879
a backwards ball cap, I am
going to scream like a little girl seeing

145
00:12:20.919 --> 00:12:24.840
Elvis Presley for the first time.
That is, I might anyway, I

146
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:35.000
am already in love with this story. Good stealing surfboards? Yeah, I

147
00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:39.039
mean in general, shell How do
you feel about otters? I think they're

148
00:12:39.039 --> 00:12:41.639
pretty good. You know, Yeah, they're okay, regular otters. Are

149
00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:46.240
you more of a sea otter person? What? What's like? Are you

150
00:12:46.320 --> 00:12:50.759
calling like maybe river otters a regular
otter or I guess yeah, I don't

151
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:54.080
know. I don't know a lot
about otters. I just I always think

152
00:12:54.120 --> 00:12:58.720
of sea otters, but I don't
know, because they hold hands while they

153
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:03.080
f in the ocean, or they
eat things on their belly or whatever.

154
00:13:03.279 --> 00:13:11.679
Yeah, they rub shells on their
tummy and like open it up. Yeah

155
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:16.799
sea otters. Okay, but it's
outlaw status has turned the Slippery sea otter

156
00:13:16.879 --> 00:13:20.759
into an international icon, with growing
support to leave her in the wild.

157
00:13:22.039 --> 00:13:28.440
Yeah. I love when the Internet
takes up a cause like this because it's

158
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:33.720
truly how human we are. Have
you ever seen the movie Smoky in the

159
00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:39.360
Bandit? No, I love Smoking
in the Bandit. It's a phenomenal movie.

160
00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:45.320
In Smokey and the Bandit, basically
the concept is, are you you're

161
00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:50.840
from the North you're from like the
East coast elite space. Are you aware

162
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.519
of like moonshine running and stuff?
Are you familiar with what that all was

163
00:13:54.559 --> 00:14:03.279
about? I think so you to
be that bootleggers could get away with bootlegging

164
00:14:03.480 --> 00:14:07.519
alcohol just by out running the police, right, and that's why we have

165
00:14:07.679 --> 00:14:11.159
NASCAR. Yes, yes, exactly, Yeah, yeah, yeah, you

166
00:14:11.240 --> 00:14:16.360
totally get it. So that's yeah, the concept of NASCAR came from racing

167
00:14:16.480 --> 00:14:22.960
like crazy. Well, similarly,
there would be one of the ways bootleggers

168
00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:26.440
would do things is they would distract
the police so that a semi truck with

169
00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:35.480
cargo wasn't allowed to transport could transport. So so when you watch Smokey and

170
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:41.039
the Bandit, it's about Bandit.
He has a super fast trans am car

171
00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:45.919
and he's basically getting the cops to
chase him all over Creation so that they

172
00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:50.320
don't notice the big truck full of
cores beer being transported out of Texas.

173
00:14:50.519 --> 00:14:54.440
Back then, you weren't allowed to
transport cores past the side of this other

174
00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:58.399
side of the Mississippi. They were
taking it to Georgia smuggling. It was

175
00:14:58.440 --> 00:15:03.200
because of food standards. Back then, coors had to be transported cooled,

176
00:15:03.480 --> 00:15:07.320
and there were some areas where they
weren't allowing beer that wasn't shelf stable.

177
00:15:09.200 --> 00:15:13.159
This is I mean the seventies.
So so anyway, the movie's amazing,

178
00:15:13.240 --> 00:15:18.399
it's super funny. There's everything to
like about it, and I can't,

179
00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:20.600
for the life of me remember what
made me talk about it in the first

180
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:26.519
place. I apologize. Oh no, it's because my favorite thing about the

181
00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:31.080
film is like, when Bandit goes
through town, he radios you know,

182
00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.120
on the CB and tells people,
you know, Bandit coming through blah blah

183
00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:37.200
blah, and the whole towns,
all the little towns off of the little

184
00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:41.080
highways love him and hate the cops. So he'd be like, hey,

185
00:15:41.320 --> 00:15:45.440
break or breaker, we're coming through
the so and so and we got smokey

186
00:15:45.519 --> 00:15:48.200
on our tail. Anyway you could
distract them. And all these people at

187
00:15:48.240 --> 00:15:50.679
like a drive in diner restaurant all
like getting their cars and like block the

188
00:15:50.759 --> 00:15:54.159
road and act like they don't know
what's going on, so the cops can't

189
00:15:54.320 --> 00:15:56.320
can't get over. And that's what
made me think of this with the Otter.

190
00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:00.600
I just love that in that movie, it's like you have the people

191
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:04.159
and you have the Mounties, that's
it. There's the people and then there's

192
00:16:04.200 --> 00:16:07.840
the Mounties. The Mounties are not
not liked by the people. I just

193
00:16:07.879 --> 00:16:11.480
love that that element. Anyway,
that was a long tangent because I just

194
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:17.240
wanted to talk about Smokey and the
Bandit highly recommend you watch it, okay.

195
00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:21.840
The five year old female autter,
known officially as Otter eight four one.

196
00:16:22.240 --> 00:16:27.960
It's catchy is that a Polish name
or uh yes, has been deemed

197
00:16:27.960 --> 00:16:34.000
a public safety risk by state and
federal wildlife officials because of her quote unusually

198
00:16:34.039 --> 00:16:41.840
aggressive behavior along the Santa Cruz Coast. As a result, wildlife officials and

199
00:16:41.960 --> 00:16:48.879
Monterey Bay Aquarium staff are attempting to
capture and rehome the otter to an aquarium

200
00:16:48.000 --> 00:16:52.480
or zoo. According to a joint
news release, Oh yeah, they want

201
00:16:52.480 --> 00:16:56.480
to imprison her. I was gonna
say, they want to like put her

202
00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:00.559
in jail, can you? And
it's it's our fault as a society.

203
00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:07.240
This otter clearly drank a surge cola
and now plays by its own rules.

204
00:17:07.519 --> 00:17:14.359
Yeah yeah, as humans who invented
surge cola, we have to take responsibility

205
00:17:15.920 --> 00:17:21.839
for that. But support for a
live and let live approach is growing with

206
00:17:21.960 --> 00:17:25.599
each unsuccessful attempt. This is the
best. No. No. The more

207
00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:29.799
I'm reading this, the more I'm
I'm imagining that this is like smoking the

208
00:17:29.799 --> 00:17:37.000
bandit but an otter. Oh my
god, the memes are amazing about this

209
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:41.319
otter. Okay. Mark Woodward is
a local Santa Cruz photographer who has chronicled

210
00:17:41.359 --> 00:17:45.839
eight four one's adventures for over a
month on Instagram. Last week, he

211
00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.079
snapped a photo of an activist dressed
as an otter holding a surfboard that read

212
00:17:49.319 --> 00:17:56.160
keep eight for one free. Another
local, Ann Stadler, voiced her support

213
00:17:56.200 --> 00:18:00.279
for otter eight four one in a
letter to the editor in the Santa Crew

214
00:18:00.359 --> 00:18:03.759
Sentinel published on Thursday. Quote.
I don't have all the facts and history

215
00:18:03.799 --> 00:18:07.359
of the incidents, but it just
seems to me to be yet another example

216
00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:11.920
of humans feeling that they have the
right of way on the earth and that

217
00:18:11.079 --> 00:18:18.759
other contemporary species and their rights to
their native habitats are expendable. Yeah,

218
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:22.279
Mike drop, I mean, don't
actually drop our mics. They're very expensive,

219
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:27.680
but Mike drop. There are several
petitions circulating online in support of eight

220
00:18:27.759 --> 00:18:34.200
four ones freedom, one of which
has gathered over fifty thousand signatures. Wow.

221
00:18:36.079 --> 00:18:40.880
Yeah, yeah, really, like, who's gonna care? But wow,

222
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:45.200
I mean I care. I mean
I kind of care, But I

223
00:18:45.240 --> 00:18:48.440
don't know that the government and the
people who want to lock her up care.

224
00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:52.039
Whoa, whoa, whoa. Don't
get political saying things like lock her

225
00:18:52.160 --> 00:19:00.480
up? What? No, I'm
looking at a meme right now that is

226
00:19:00.559 --> 00:19:04.799
an otter with a Batman mask over
its face, and it says she's the

227
00:19:04.799 --> 00:19:08.960
hero Santa Cruz deserves, but not
the one it needs right now. So

228
00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:12.599
we'll hunt her because she can take
it, because she's not our hero.

229
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:18.279
She's a silent guardian, a watchful
protector a dark night. And then the

230
00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:27.400
quote is attributed to just the Feds. The otter's antics have become a viral

231
00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:33.200
sensation in recent weeks, generating a
multitude of memes shared across social media platforms.

232
00:19:33.559 --> 00:19:38.519
Santa Cruz is most wanted even has
an Instagram fan page at the surfing

233
00:19:38.640 --> 00:19:44.240
otter. Wow, yeah, I
just imagine your phone coming up immediately,

234
00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:48.640
like I'm gonna need to follow that
home to a series of parody images,

235
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:52.279
including one that compares atter eight for
one to Batman and Christopher Nolan's film The

236
00:19:52.359 --> 00:19:56.160
Dark Knight. Quote Oh eight Now
that's just quoting what I just read.

237
00:19:57.119 --> 00:20:02.680
However, the agency's charged with catching
eight four one have maintained their stance that

238
00:20:02.799 --> 00:20:07.920
capturing and rehoming her is best for
the otter and humans alike. Biologists say

239
00:20:08.039 --> 00:20:14.880
catching the otter could take days or
weeks because of environmental conditions like water clarity,

240
00:20:15.720 --> 00:20:19.680
you know. I mean, that's
just like the capturers to be like,

241
00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:22.920
no, no, the best thing
we can do is what we want

242
00:20:22.920 --> 00:20:26.000
to do. Yeah, yeah,
it sounds a little convenient. I want

243
00:20:26.000 --> 00:20:30.160
to see the otters start stealing like
their trucks and stuff when they like when

244
00:20:30.200 --> 00:20:33.480
they're trying to catch her, you
know, they just they're just like,

245
00:20:34.279 --> 00:20:37.839
I could have sworn we saw her
here. That's what the call said,

246
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:41.599
you know. The call said that
that the otter was right here. And

247
00:20:41.599 --> 00:20:45.039
then they just hear like a motor
and they turn back, and the otter

248
00:20:45.160 --> 00:20:48.599
is just like waving at them as
it's driving away on their truck. But

249
00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:51.079
the otter is a total menace,
So it doesn't just steal the truck.

250
00:20:51.119 --> 00:20:53.039
It like recks it a mile down
the road and leaves it. Of course

251
00:20:53.039 --> 00:20:56.519
it does. Otters don't know how
to drive very well, It's true,

252
00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:00.200
but it doesn't stop me, so
it shouldn't stop them. Yeah. The

253
00:21:00.319 --> 00:21:07.359
California Department of Fish and Wildlife told
NPR that capture efforts could be quote suspended

254
00:21:07.440 --> 00:21:12.319
or halted entirely if the otter continues
to elude officials and stops interacting with people.

255
00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:17.160
Oh okay, so we just have
to let the otter know that it

256
00:21:17.200 --> 00:21:19.720
needs to stop. We just have
to let the otto know to stop doing

257
00:21:19.839 --> 00:21:26.039
everything awesome that it's constantly doing.
Well, it's like that, or go

258
00:21:26.079 --> 00:21:30.480
to prison, like would you?
Yeah, that sounds like tyrant talk.

259
00:21:30.359 --> 00:21:34.720
I am with this ottter in every
way, and if this otter could use

260
00:21:34.799 --> 00:21:41.400
money to do more of this,
I would pay. Where is this otter's

261
00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:47.960
patreon? I wish to subscribe.
This otter has brought me so much joy.

262
00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:52.880
I'm I'm glad that you that you
like her so much. I do

263
00:21:53.160 --> 00:21:59.799
eight for one beah. Wildlife experts
remain uncertain about why the otter is behaving

264
00:21:59.799 --> 00:22:04.519
the way. Monterey Bay Aquarium spokesperson
Kevin Conner previously told NPR that Otter eight

265
00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:10.519
four one was born in the aquarium
approximately five years ago. Oh so this

266
00:22:11.000 --> 00:22:17.359
so this is the system's fault.
Yeah, they did this. Yeah,

267
00:22:17.400 --> 00:22:22.440
this is not some otter that was
born in nature and then decided to be

268
00:22:22.480 --> 00:22:26.799
a menace. No, we made
this ottter. This is the chickens coming

269
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:33.880
home to roost, except their otters. Yeah, this story just keeps.

270
00:22:33.319 --> 00:22:37.000
Man, I want to I want
to like get a movie off the ground

271
00:22:37.119 --> 00:22:40.880
immediately. That's just a sea otter
adventure, like but not for kids.

272
00:22:41.079 --> 00:22:42.839
No, it's like the sea otter
is just like all it does is like

273
00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:48.359
steal stuff and like give cops wedgies
and smoke blunts. That's all this otter

274
00:22:48.480 --> 00:22:52.759
does. The coolest otter ever.
I dream of being as cool as this

275
00:22:52.839 --> 00:22:56.519
real life attter. I mean,
I'm now I'm kind of with the otter,

276
00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:03.640
especially since they like gaped I suppose, yeah, they could do whatever

277
00:23:03.680 --> 00:23:08.240
they want. Yeah. Yeah.
Also, the fact that the otter escaped

278
00:23:08.440 --> 00:23:14.119
an aquarium and is now a menace
just tells me that this is all cya.

279
00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:17.480
This is all cover your cover your
ass. Now it's like, oh,

280
00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:21.359
oh we need to recapture yeah,
because you release this menace into the

281
00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:25.119
world by being incompetent. Yeah,
and now you want to cover your booty

282
00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:29.279
hole by saying like oh no,
no, we gotta put it we gotta

283
00:23:29.359 --> 00:23:33.319
Oh no, no, we can't
allow this level of truth and justice in

284
00:23:33.359 --> 00:23:40.079
life. Get out of here with
that. Bs. Oh. So there's

285
00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:44.200
more to that though. So she
was born in the aquarium approximately five years

286
00:23:44.240 --> 00:23:48.440
ago, where she was raised by
her mother and minimally cared for by staff

287
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:53.960
disguised in black rubber suits and welding
masks to hide their human appearance. So

288
00:23:56.359 --> 00:24:00.279
she was just tormented by the horrors
of people in black rubber suits in welding

289
00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:04.559
masks. Correct, course, she's
not, okay, I mean I feel

290
00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:11.200
less okay, having only read that. Yeah, she was successfully Oh man,

291
00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:18.039
this is so cya m. She
was successfully released into the wild in

292
00:24:18.160 --> 00:24:22.680
June of twenty twenty. So she
didn't even escape. No, this is

293
00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:27.519
entirely their fault. Yeah, and
now they're just afraid that she is going

294
00:24:27.559 --> 00:24:33.759
to teach the other otters her ways. Exactly, exactly. I'm voting for

295
00:24:33.839 --> 00:24:40.640
eight for one in November. Okay. Now there's no election in November,

296
00:24:41.960 --> 00:24:45.400
but I am voting. That's fine. I mean, you can vote as

297
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:52.880
often as you want, as long
as you're in Chicago. So she was

298
00:24:52.920 --> 00:24:55.400
released in the wild in June of
two, twenty twenty, and appeared to

299
00:24:55.440 --> 00:24:59.680
be doing well until last September,
when her interactions with humans were first documented

300
00:24:59.720 --> 00:25:04.200
in the area. The CDFW says
the otter could be behaving this way because

301
00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:08.640
of positive interactions with people, such
as feeding, which would explain why she's

302
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:15.000
not exhibiting a healthy fear of humans. Sure. I mean when I think

303
00:25:15.079 --> 00:25:18.839
of animals that need a healthy fear
of humans, I don't think of otters.

304
00:25:18.799 --> 00:25:22.319
Like the worst thing that a human
is going to generally do to an

305
00:25:22.319 --> 00:25:26.799
otter is fail to pet it because
it's so cute. Yeah, like,

306
00:25:26.799 --> 00:25:29.400
oh my god, can I pet
you know I ran away? Okay,

307
00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:33.880
fair enough? Yeah? Would you
pet an otter? Sure? If it

308
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:37.000
was okay with that, how would
you be willing to find out by reaching

309
00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:42.920
for it to see how it reacts. I don't really know to decide if

310
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:48.279
that's safe or not, but probably
okay. I mean, I feel like

311
00:25:48.440 --> 00:25:52.200
one of the most important elements of
being human is being willing to die for

312
00:25:52.279 --> 00:25:56.680
petting things. Yeah. I think
that's important, but I don't really want

313
00:25:56.839 --> 00:26:00.839
to. I don't really want that
to be the thing that leads to my

314
00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:03.880
death. Though I might just be
maiming. I mean, more than likely

315
00:26:03.920 --> 00:26:07.839
it's just maiming. No, I
really don't want it. Well, you're

316
00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:12.079
more antimaim than death. I just
feel like if I'm really badly maimed,

317
00:26:12.960 --> 00:26:17.400
things are going to be hard,
you know. I mean they'll be harder

318
00:26:17.400 --> 00:26:22.039
if you're dead, though, No, they won't be anything. You're raising

319
00:26:22.119 --> 00:26:27.559
fair points, fair points. Officials
want to catch the honors so she can

320
00:26:27.599 --> 00:26:33.160
be thoroughly examined at the Monterey Bay
Aquarium before finding her a new home,

321
00:26:33.559 --> 00:26:37.400
all but certainly in an improved zoo
or aquarium. So what you're saying is

322
00:26:37.000 --> 00:26:41.720
you want to capture this creature,
steal it, shine, imprison it,

323
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:48.599
and hope we all forget No,
especially because they probably won't even give her

324
00:26:48.599 --> 00:26:55.240
surfboards. There's no way they'll give
her surfboards or at least not reasonable boardwax,

325
00:26:55.279 --> 00:26:56.240
because that's the other things. You
got to maintain the board. You

326
00:26:56.240 --> 00:27:02.000
can't just ride it. Yeah,
yeah, I mean I guess they could

327
00:27:02.000 --> 00:27:07.000
maintain it for her. Yeah,
but that's just taking away all that's taking

328
00:27:07.000 --> 00:27:11.960
away all of her independence. Yeah, I know, not cool, not

329
00:27:11.079 --> 00:27:15.880
cool, bro. Like her current
summer escapades. At eight four one was

330
00:27:15.920 --> 00:27:21.440
caught harassing surfers in Santa Cruz.
Last September, CDFW and aquarium staff were

331
00:27:21.480 --> 00:27:23.960
able to drive her away from the
area, but she returned to her stomping

332
00:27:23.960 --> 00:27:30.119
grounds and resumed her unusual behavior last
month. Good Atter eight four one,

333
00:27:30.359 --> 00:27:37.440
We stand by you. Yeah,
that may be the coolest thing I've ever

334
00:27:37.480 --> 00:27:45.079
heard at stealing surfboards. It kind
of reminds me of those orcas that we're

335
00:27:45.119 --> 00:27:49.319
taking the I believe rudders off of
boats in Spain. Yeah, those are

336
00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:55.640
fun. Oh, orcas well.
We got one more animal news story before

337
00:27:55.680 --> 00:27:57.720
we'll go to the break because it's
a it's a shorter one. This one's

338
00:27:57.759 --> 00:28:06.240
also from NPR and it is Rabbits
have overrun a suburban Florida community. Volunteers

339
00:28:06.279 --> 00:28:10.480
hop to the rescue. For those
out there listening to this, I e.

340
00:28:10.720 --> 00:28:14.200
David Denoyer, who he and I
watched Night of the Leapists, which

341
00:28:14.240 --> 00:28:21.960
is about giant meat eating rabbits.
Yeah. It's honestly a terrifying movie and

342
00:28:22.079 --> 00:28:26.799
really gory. But the rabbits grow
giant and start eating people. A community

343
00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:33.880
in South Florida has an adorable problem
on its hands. Dozens of domesticated bunnies

344
00:28:33.880 --> 00:28:38.200
have overrun parts of Wilton Manners,
a suburb of Fort Lauderdale. Huh,

345
00:28:38.240 --> 00:28:45.599
I wonder how the iguanas feel about
this? Probably really good. Two years

346
00:28:45.640 --> 00:28:49.039
after a resident let loose lion head
rabbits from their backyard, according to local

347
00:28:49.160 --> 00:28:55.119
lore, the number of rabbits now
up number the eighty one homes in Jenada

348
00:28:55.200 --> 00:29:00.720
Aisle than Janada Ibel Aisle neighborhood.
The furry invasion has divided the neighborhood's residents.

349
00:29:02.039 --> 00:29:06.000
Some have allegedly threatened to shoot the
animals or feed them to their snakes.

350
00:29:06.400 --> 00:29:07.759
I like how that's one of the
options. Or feed them to their

351
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:12.039
snakes. They just have everybody or
it's just Florida. So they're like,

352
00:29:12.079 --> 00:29:15.240
oh, the snakes in the neighborhood
there, the snakes will take care of

353
00:29:15.279 --> 00:29:22.160
this. Yeah. Makes me think
of the invasive species in The Simpsons when

354
00:29:22.160 --> 00:29:25.319
it was like I forget what it
was, like frogs or something had like

355
00:29:25.359 --> 00:29:27.000
taken over, and it was like, that's why we bring in the snakes.

356
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:30.400
They they love the rabbit meat or
whatever it was. And then it

357
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.759
was like, but then we have
a city full of snakes. He's like,

358
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:37.279
that's when we bring in the gorillas
who thrive on snake meat. It

359
00:29:37.319 --> 00:29:40.279
was like, then we have gorillas
everywhere. And he's like, that's okay

360
00:29:40.279 --> 00:29:42.519
because the gorillas can't survive winter.
And she was like, all right,

361
00:29:42.599 --> 00:29:52.480
I guess this works. Oh my
god. Some want to let the bunnies

362
00:29:52.640 --> 00:29:57.200
roam free. Others concerned about the
rabbits safety are raising money to save them.

363
00:29:57.319 --> 00:30:03.440
I want to point out it actually
says racing money because NBR needs a

364
00:30:03.440 --> 00:30:08.240
copy editor. East Coast Rabbit Rescue, a nonprofit organization, is spearheading an

365
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:12.920
effort to rescue and rehome the bunnies. The group managed to rescue nineteen rabbits

366
00:30:12.920 --> 00:30:19.319
on Friday, three of which are
pregnant. Oh no, I guess they

367
00:30:19.359 --> 00:30:25.799
reproduce like rabbits Man. The volunteer
run outfit began rounding up the rabbits after

368
00:30:25.839 --> 00:30:29.519
partnering with city police to complete the
mission. The big challenge in trapping the

369
00:30:29.599 --> 00:30:33.200
rabbits has been the residents, says
ECRR president Monica Mitchell. Quote. Our

370
00:30:33.200 --> 00:30:37.599
hope was to rescue up to forty
five. That was our goal yesterday,

371
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:41.400
she said on Saturday. But unfortunately
we encountered lots of issues there because the

372
00:30:41.440 --> 00:30:45.680
residents were so hostile. Some residents
didn't want us to take the bunnies.

373
00:30:48.279 --> 00:30:51.680
I understand you do it was that
would you be on the bunny side,

374
00:30:51.720 --> 00:30:56.079
Like I just want tons of bunnies
all over Yeah, I mean I already

375
00:30:56.119 --> 00:31:00.880
have you know, rabbits an in
my neighborhood too. Yeah, yeah,

376
00:31:00.920 --> 00:31:04.160
I wouldn't mind having these little like
lion head rabbits that have like lots of

377
00:31:04.160 --> 00:31:10.799
hair on their heads. They're super
cute. Yeah. An officer with the

378
00:31:11.000 --> 00:31:15.720
from the Wilton Manors Police Department was
present during the mission to provide protection,

379
00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:19.119
but Mitchell is asking the city to
do more. Quote, the city needs

380
00:31:19.160 --> 00:31:23.480
to approach the residence in a different
way, she said, and say,

381
00:31:23.519 --> 00:31:26.359
hey, you guys need to allow
the rescue to come and get the rest

382
00:31:26.359 --> 00:31:30.200
of the bunnies. They haven't done
that the city. The city hasn't said

383
00:31:30.240 --> 00:31:34.079
like let them take the bunnies.
So you're just wandering their neighborhoods stealing stuff.

384
00:31:34.400 --> 00:31:37.640
No wonder they're hostile. Yeah,
they probably don't know what they're going

385
00:31:37.720 --> 00:31:41.599
to do to the bunnies, Like
I don't want they don't probably want them

386
00:31:41.599 --> 00:31:47.319
dead or whatever. Yeah, No, I don't trust these people. Yeah.

387
00:31:47.480 --> 00:31:51.400
The lion had rabbits, a fluffier
species noted for their thick maine or

388
00:31:51.519 --> 00:31:56.440
double maine circling their head. Aren't
built for suburban Florida, Mitchell says.

389
00:31:56.759 --> 00:32:00.440
The animals, which are prone to
heat strokes. She says, oh,

390
00:32:00.440 --> 00:32:02.680
oh, that is a problem,
have been digging holes in the ground to

391
00:32:02.799 --> 00:32:07.119
escape the oppressive heat, to the
irritation of some residents. Lacking a proper

392
00:32:07.160 --> 00:32:10.599
source of clean water or food,
the rabbits have been grazing on lawns that

393
00:32:10.680 --> 00:32:15.559
could be treated with toxic pesticides.
But so what they do that all over

394
00:32:15.599 --> 00:32:20.880
the place anyway, that's true.
I think it's because they're domestics, so

395
00:32:21.240 --> 00:32:23.640
they feel like they owe them something
as opposed to like wild rabbits that like,

396
00:32:23.720 --> 00:32:29.240
that's just the agreement they took.
Yeah, I guess the rabbits are

397
00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:34.640
also at the mercy of the area's
predators and cars. The West Palm Beach

398
00:32:34.680 --> 00:32:37.359
based group says it will need at
least forty thousand dollars to be able to

399
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:43.200
capture, neuter and spay, vaccinate, and microchip the over one hundred rabbits,

400
00:32:43.200 --> 00:32:46.200
and counting so far, it's raised
over half of that goal. The

401
00:32:46.359 --> 00:32:52.359
WMPD has not yet committed funds toward
the effort, A spokesman told NPR the

402
00:32:52.440 --> 00:32:57.160
costs are quickly adding up. Mitchell
says care for each rabbit costs between two

403
00:32:57.240 --> 00:33:00.359
hundred to three hundred dollars. She
says, not including any extra medical attention.

404
00:33:00.640 --> 00:33:10.440
She says several bunnies need they need
attention for their medical problems. Michelle,

405
00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:14.920
I will I will join you driving
down there if you will agree to

406
00:33:14.920 --> 00:33:17.759
take in. How many rabbits do
you want to take in? I was

407
00:33:17.799 --> 00:33:23.160
thinking, no rabbits. It's gonna
have to be more than that, like

408
00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:30.799
half of one that, I mean, your cat would like that. The

409
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:37.200
rabbits require care from exotic veterinarians,
which are rarer and costlier than vets who

410
00:33:37.240 --> 00:33:39.839
treat the common pat I'd like to
imagine the veterinarians themselves are exotic. They're

411
00:33:39.880 --> 00:33:45.680
just like wearing like a headscarf and
like and like like shaking moroccas and stuff.

412
00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:52.319
Okay, let's get you vaccinated.
A Ding Ding Ding Ding ding Ding

413
00:33:52.119 --> 00:33:55.839
Rabbit Rescue is preparing for high vet
bills, which in some cases will include

414
00:33:55.880 --> 00:34:00.880
surgery to treat the animals. The
group's president said, quote, Sometimes the

415
00:34:00.920 --> 00:34:06.839
vet is willing to or capable to
do the surgery. Sometimes the vet that

416
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:09.679
is willing to or capable of doing
is what it should say. The surgery

417
00:34:09.800 --> 00:34:13.920
is like three to four hours away
from us. She added, Okay,

418
00:34:13.960 --> 00:34:15.880
so that makes sense though, I
mean if you you've never had an exotic

419
00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:21.440
pet, have you? I mean
yeah, I mean, like I've had

420
00:34:21.480 --> 00:34:23.960
like guinea pig. Okay, that's
an exotic pet. Then you know that

421
00:34:24.000 --> 00:34:28.679
it's like it's different getting them taking
care of as opposed to cats and dogs.

422
00:34:29.400 --> 00:34:32.199
Yeah. Yeah, so like,
yeah, you need an exotic exotic

423
00:34:32.719 --> 00:34:37.440
person who is also a veterinarian pum
pum. During in April twenty fifth City

424
00:34:37.480 --> 00:34:43.079
Council meeting, Wilton Manners council members
were concerned that drafting policies to solve the

425
00:34:43.119 --> 00:34:46.880
problem would set a precedent for the
need to curb other invasive animals, including

426
00:34:46.920 --> 00:34:54.760
iguanas and ducks. Okay, ducks
fly, I don't think you're stopping that.

427
00:34:55.599 --> 00:35:00.000
Well, maybe they're they're year round
species of ducks, huh, But

428
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.199
I mean if they got there,
they got wings, I mean, what

429
00:35:02.199 --> 00:35:06.480
are you gonna do get rid of
them? They'll just come back. What

430
00:35:06.559 --> 00:35:12.239
if you bring them like really far
and they come back? Okay, Mitchell

431
00:35:12.320 --> 00:35:15.639
says the according that, according to
neighbors she's spoken to, the rabbits descended

432
00:35:15.679 --> 00:35:21.280
from pets kept by a former resident
who illegally let them loose when she moved

433
00:35:21.280 --> 00:35:27.519
out of state two years ago.
Naturally, they've since reproduced, multiplying like

434
00:35:27.800 --> 00:35:35.199
rabbits that yes, sorry please,
So so this happened two years ago.

435
00:35:35.800 --> 00:35:40.400
Yes, and they're doing just fine. Their population is expanding. They're apparently

436
00:35:40.440 --> 00:35:44.960
not actually dying of heat stroke.
Yeah, that is true. I think

437
00:35:44.960 --> 00:35:49.119
it's more that they have to destroy
people's lawns to survive. The heat is

438
00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:52.880
the problem. I mean holes,
I'm not really sure. I don't know

439
00:35:53.000 --> 00:35:58.199
the rabbits do dig holes. I've
read that somewhere. So you think that,

440
00:35:58.239 --> 00:36:01.320
yeah, just let them be yeah, I mean eventually they probably crossbeat

441
00:36:01.320 --> 00:36:04.960
read with regular I don't know if
there are rabbits in Florida. Are there

442
00:36:05.039 --> 00:36:13.079
gotta be, I'm not sure.
Well, Mitchell's rescue group is calling the

443
00:36:13.079 --> 00:36:15.880
community to help, calling on the
community to help with donations, supplies,

444
00:36:15.920 --> 00:36:21.760
and fosters to care for the captured
rabbits. So they're doing their part to

445
00:36:21.800 --> 00:36:24.280
try and help the rabbits. But
I say, let the animals be free.

446
00:36:24.760 --> 00:36:29.760
But speaking of animals that need to
be free. Our next story,

447
00:36:30.079 --> 00:36:35.360
which we'll get to after the break, involves a more famous creature out of

448
00:36:35.360 --> 00:36:52.800
a little place called block Ness.
Right after this and we are back right

449
00:36:52.840 --> 00:36:55.679
here on Monthly Spooky with some more
spooky news, but before we get to

450
00:36:55.719 --> 00:37:00.599
that. I am the kind of
person that talks about every thing because it

451
00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:04.280
makes me feel better. During the
break, I had a really bad time.

452
00:37:06.119 --> 00:37:10.840
Yeah, Ano is still recovering from
his cancer tests. Yesterday and he

453
00:37:10.920 --> 00:37:15.400
slipped and fell and had an accident
and I had to clean him and my

454
00:37:15.679 --> 00:37:21.360
kitchen and his dog bed. I
had to clean it all up while he

455
00:37:21.400 --> 00:37:27.920
looked very pathetic and very betrayed.
I picked him up. I mean he's

456
00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:30.440
like sixty five pounds, so picking
him up is not like the easiest thing.

457
00:37:30.719 --> 00:37:31.840
I picked him up, at him
in the tub and I'm like spraying

458
00:37:31.920 --> 00:37:36.519
lukewarm water on his butt and like
rubbing soap, and he's just look at

459
00:37:36.519 --> 00:37:42.440
me like you're murdering me. I'm
hurdered. And then I'm like another baginster.

460
00:37:42.519 --> 00:37:47.079
But he's like I will in the
eight So so yeah, some heavy

461
00:37:47.079 --> 00:37:53.159
stuff going one pound. But and
Chell Is, you're one of the best

462
00:37:53.199 --> 00:37:58.840
friends on Earth, and you're always
so kind and so understanding, and you

463
00:37:58.880 --> 00:38:01.320
were like, hey, we could
pick up this recording later or tomorrow or

464
00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:06.280
whatever, and I was like,
no, I'd rather sit and talk with

465
00:38:06.360 --> 00:38:10.519
you and talk with the spookies.
But I will say, you know,

466
00:38:10.559 --> 00:38:14.119
because this is a show where we
talk for like two hours two and a

467
00:38:14.119 --> 00:38:16.000
half hour straight, So I think, well, you know this is where

468
00:38:16.000 --> 00:38:20.840
you get to know me. Is
over here things have been really hard over

469
00:38:20.880 --> 00:38:25.320
here. Yeah, I'm just trying
to give to Kano the best possible care,

470
00:38:27.159 --> 00:38:32.119
both giving and paying for it.
Super difficult, super expensive, super

471
00:38:32.199 --> 00:38:38.960
unpleasant. So anyway, that's not
me plugging weekly Spooky dot com, slash

472
00:38:39.079 --> 00:38:42.519
or dot com and click on help
my Dog. But you know, if

473
00:38:42.519 --> 00:38:45.800
you if you want to, you
can. But let's talk about another type

474
00:38:45.800 --> 00:38:53.440
of animal chell, the the non
real kind. Well, I mean depends

475
00:38:53.480 --> 00:38:58.800
on how you see it, but
we've got this news story from HuffPost dot

476
00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:05.920
com. Creature Your Seekers Center hopes
drones will aid in massive lockness monsters search.

477
00:39:07.599 --> 00:39:09.760
You're you're nodding, so I'm guessing
you've heard about this or no,

478
00:39:09.760 --> 00:39:13.960
no, it just makes sense,
like come on, yeah, I mean

479
00:39:14.840 --> 00:39:17.639
a few so When I was a
kid, I loved the Lockness Monster,

480
00:39:19.440 --> 00:39:22.559
Like I thought it was a fascinating
story. I read all the books in

481
00:39:22.599 --> 00:39:25.519
my library about it. What do
you have any did you ever have like

482
00:39:25.519 --> 00:39:29.199
a lot of thoughts about the Lockness
Monster? Do you have any thoughts now

483
00:39:29.280 --> 00:39:32.519
or anything like that? I mean, I think that there's always a chance

484
00:39:32.559 --> 00:39:36.800
that there's something in there that we
just don't know about yet, you know,

485
00:39:37.159 --> 00:39:42.559
because why not. It's water water
scary, so it might have an

486
00:39:42.559 --> 00:39:46.440
honor that's going to steal your surfboard
and then also your girlfriend exactly because who

487
00:39:46.440 --> 00:39:54.599
wouldn't want to hang out with a
nod or over some chair guy doesn't even

488
00:39:54.639 --> 00:40:00.239
surf? Yeah? Really, bro, do you even surf? So I

489
00:40:00.280 --> 00:40:04.079
always love the Lockness Monster, But
my whole attitude as I got older,

490
00:40:04.519 --> 00:40:07.280
and I'm not even talking that older. I mean like eighteen nineteen, when

491
00:40:07.280 --> 00:40:10.440
it was like, you know,
two thousand and it's four two thousand and

492
00:40:10.480 --> 00:40:15.960
three was like even then with technology
not even anywhere near what it is now,

493
00:40:15.000 --> 00:40:19.159
I was like, can't we just
put a camera on every inch of

494
00:40:19.440 --> 00:40:22.760
lockness? Yeah? I know that
would be expensive, but somebody would pay

495
00:40:22.800 --> 00:40:29.239
for it because they're crazy. You
know, just my thought. The other

496
00:40:29.280 --> 00:40:34.159
thing about Locknest that's always been tricky
is it's not really that big or that

497
00:40:34.280 --> 00:40:40.679
special of a body of water.
That's not nice. I'm just I'm just

498
00:40:40.760 --> 00:40:45.880
saying it's not There's no known reason
why it would have something so different from

499
00:40:45.880 --> 00:40:51.480
everywhere else, although there are many
lake monsters yeah, in big lakes.

500
00:40:52.199 --> 00:40:55.599
And the other problem is that generally
speaking, a habitat that small just can't

501
00:40:55.599 --> 00:41:05.039
support something that big. What if
there's lots of other big things in there

502
00:41:05.119 --> 00:41:08.760
that it eats. That just actually
makes the problem worse than what you were

503
00:41:08.800 --> 00:41:13.559
describing. Is then what would they
eat? Maybe they eat like maybe they're

504
00:41:13.559 --> 00:41:19.199
like bottom feeders. Wow, hateful? Okay, yeah, sorry, I

505
00:41:19.239 --> 00:41:21.760
listened to much political talk. I
thought you were talking about people you just

506
00:41:21.800 --> 00:41:28.800
don't like bottom feeders. No,
I mean there could be mysteries under there

507
00:41:28.800 --> 00:41:31.639
that I don't know. You know, I'm not I am not a scientist,

508
00:41:32.159 --> 00:41:35.960
and neither are most of the people
you're about to read about. Probably,

509
00:41:36.400 --> 00:41:44.119
But what I do love about lockness
is that it completely and utterly captures

510
00:41:44.119 --> 00:41:50.639
the imagination. I love that about
Lockness. So that's what I'm excited about,

511
00:41:50.800 --> 00:41:52.559
is the fact that We're going to
read a little bit more about lockness

512
00:41:52.599 --> 00:41:58.440
and why I'm mad that I haven't
heard the term drones and lockness in the

513
00:41:58.480 --> 00:42:02.199
same sentence in a while. Yeah, so let's take it. Let's dive

514
00:42:02.360 --> 00:42:09.719
into this one water Lockness. The
Locknest Center in Scotland is calling for budding

515
00:42:09.760 --> 00:42:15.599
monster hunters and volunteers to join in
what it dubs the largest search for the

516
00:42:15.639 --> 00:42:22.400
Lockness Monster since the nineteen seventies.
Wow. That is the other question about

517
00:42:22.599 --> 00:42:27.920
cryptids in general, but especially Lockness
monster, is why, like, is

518
00:42:27.920 --> 00:42:34.719
there just one and it's some kind
of like supernatural legendary creature or is there

519
00:42:36.280 --> 00:42:39.559
more than one? You know,
is there like is this some kind of

520
00:42:40.079 --> 00:42:44.280
like is there a family of this
type of creature? And if so,

521
00:42:44.400 --> 00:42:46.440
then that raises even more problems about
why would we see them more often?

522
00:42:46.480 --> 00:42:51.239
And what are they eat? Yeah? I mean I would think my my

523
00:42:51.480 --> 00:42:55.519
go to thought thing would be that
they have to have there has to be

524
00:42:55.599 --> 00:43:00.639
like more of them, because otherwise
it doesn't make sense or it's at and

525
00:43:00.679 --> 00:43:05.519
if it's a ghost, everything actually
makes plenty sense. Now, this is

526
00:43:05.559 --> 00:43:07.800
going to sound weird coming from somebody
who doesn't believe in ghosts. But Lockness

527
00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:14.000
Monster being a dinosaur ghost makes the
most sense of any theory I've ever heard.

528
00:43:14.400 --> 00:43:21.199
Yeah, just keeping it one hundred. I need to say that term

529
00:43:21.280 --> 00:43:25.480
more often. Just keeping it one
hundred. The visitor Attraction said this week

530
00:43:25.559 --> 00:43:30.119
that modern technology, such as drones
that produce thermal images of the lake will

531
00:43:30.239 --> 00:43:36.559
quote search the waters in a way
that has never been done before. The

532
00:43:36.639 --> 00:43:40.280
new surface water search for the fabled
Nessie planned for the weekend of August twenty

533
00:43:40.400 --> 00:43:45.480
sixth and twenty seventh. Hey,
this will be airing right after that happened.

534
00:43:45.880 --> 00:43:51.119
Yeah, is billed as the largest
of its kind since the Lockness Investigation

535
00:43:51.199 --> 00:43:55.000
Bureau studied the lock for signs of
the mythical beast in nineteen seventy two.

536
00:43:58.239 --> 00:44:04.239
That means that there have been multiple
Lockness organizations. This was the Lockness Investigation

537
00:44:04.239 --> 00:44:07.360
Bureau, and now this is the
Lockness Center. Yeah, I love it.

538
00:44:08.199 --> 00:44:10.840
Hey, if I if I was
in a small town in the middle

539
00:44:10.880 --> 00:44:15.199
of nowhere that had a body of
water that became legendary, I would play

540
00:44:15.239 --> 00:44:17.079
it up often. I would.
I would play it up as hard as

541
00:44:17.079 --> 00:44:22.440
I could. I if I could
go like if I was doing like a

542
00:44:22.519 --> 00:44:25.239
United Kingdom tour of like, you
know, just seeing things. I would

543
00:44:25.280 --> 00:44:30.519
totally want to go see Lockness just
because of all those imagination experiences when I

544
00:44:30.559 --> 00:44:35.679
was a kid thinking about it.
It would be fun. Yeah. So,

545
00:44:35.719 --> 00:44:43.000
and I'm sure it's beautiful or depressing
because it's UK. The Lockness Center

546
00:44:43.039 --> 00:44:49.400
is located at Old Drum Drock Drum
Rock Drum not Drocket Hotel, where in

547
00:44:49.519 --> 00:44:55.679
nineteen thirty three manager Aldie McKay reported
spotting a water beast in the lock the

548
00:44:55.800 --> 00:45:00.159
largest body of freshwater by volume in
the United Kingdom and one of its deepest.

549
00:45:01.239 --> 00:45:06.280
Okay that sounds special, No,
that is special by United Kingdom standards.

550
00:45:06.480 --> 00:45:09.320
Yeah, we're spoiled here in America. Like it'll be like, you

551
00:45:09.320 --> 00:45:13.719
know, they have the biggest lake
ever in their country and it's like,

552
00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:17.519
okay, we have eighty five of
those in Wisconsin. Yeah, we get

553
00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:22.400
spoiled. We do, Yeah,
we do. The story kicked off and

554
00:45:22.599 --> 00:45:29.800
enduring worldwide fascination with finding the elusive
monster, spawning hoaxes and hundreds of eyewitness

555
00:45:29.800 --> 00:45:35.039
accounts. Numerous theories or explanations have
been put forward over the years, including

556
00:45:35.039 --> 00:45:39.159
that the creature may have been a
plelius a plesiosaur, a prehistoric marine reptile,

557
00:45:39.639 --> 00:45:43.559
giant eels. That's the one I've
heard the most is that it's giant

558
00:45:43.559 --> 00:45:53.599
eel or even swimming circus elephants.
I mean no, but okay, So

559
00:45:53.679 --> 00:45:59.119
this is the famous file photo of
the Lockness Monster. I'm sure you've seen

560
00:45:59.119 --> 00:46:01.400
it before. It's the one.
It's like a silhouette and it really looks

561
00:46:01.440 --> 00:46:07.840
like well, it looks like a
shadow of a goose. But if I

562
00:46:07.920 --> 00:46:14.760
remove that, it looks like a
dinosaur. Or it could be a trunk

563
00:46:14.800 --> 00:46:22.400
of an elephant that they do breathe
through it. Right. Yeah, This

564
00:46:22.480 --> 00:46:27.320
undated file photo shows a shadowy shape
that some say is the Lockness Monster.

565
00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:30.280
In Scotland. An upcoming search for
the fabled Nesci is the largest number half

566
00:46:30.320 --> 00:46:31.559
century. Blah blah blah. So
I just want to show you that photo

567
00:46:31.559 --> 00:46:35.800
in case you weren't like me,
I have that photo like permanently tattooed.

568
00:46:35.840 --> 00:46:38.239
Oh yeah, yeah, no,
I know that one. Yeah purported,

569
00:46:38.440 --> 00:46:43.599
but didn't didn't somebody come out and
say that they fake that? I don't

570
00:46:43.639 --> 00:46:46.760
know. I feel like that's a
thing that they came out and said,

571
00:46:46.800 --> 00:46:52.480
like, hey, we faked that. Now I have to check lock ness

572
00:46:52.480 --> 00:47:01.599
photo fake. Let's find out right
now, Okay, lockness monster picture is

573
00:47:01.639 --> 00:47:07.159
a fake. Oh well no,
that's a more recent fake photo. Okay,

574
00:47:07.320 --> 00:47:10.280
then that one is just unexplained.
It's also undated, which opens up

575
00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:17.880
questions. So it is tough because
so the way that Lockness monster, the

576
00:47:17.920 --> 00:47:21.679
way that it works, I mean, the way the concept of a Lockness

577
00:47:21.679 --> 00:47:27.320
monster is sorry, I've lost my
train thought a little bit. The concept

578
00:47:27.360 --> 00:47:34.639
of a giant inhabitant in any water
body is always tricky because water is a

579
00:47:34.760 --> 00:47:40.000
very specific ecosystem. So generally,
have you ever heard the term like that

580
00:47:40.519 --> 00:47:45.239
fish grow to the size of their
habitat? Yeah, yeah, like you

581
00:47:45.239 --> 00:47:49.159
hear that a lot about Like when
you hear about like a goldfish could be

582
00:47:49.199 --> 00:47:52.079
like yeah, big, like the
size of a football. It's like,

583
00:47:52.119 --> 00:47:54.639
well, they grow as big as
their habitat allows. That's what that what

584
00:47:54.679 --> 00:47:58.400
they mean. When they're saying grows
as big as the habitat allows, they

585
00:47:58.400 --> 00:48:00.760
mean like the access to food and
the access to space, the access to

586
00:48:00.800 --> 00:48:06.880
exercise is what allows them to grow. And that's why a lot of people

587
00:48:06.960 --> 00:48:13.199
think that the Lockness monster is an
eel, because when eels are born,

588
00:48:15.760 --> 00:48:20.519
unique eels they're born with no ability
to reproduce. They tend to just eat

589
00:48:20.559 --> 00:48:23.800
and neat and neat and grow and
grow and grow. Wow, because they

590
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:29.039
have no drive to reproduce, so
they just eat. So some people think

591
00:48:29.119 --> 00:48:31.000
that, but then other people point
out that like even the Great Lakes in

592
00:48:31.039 --> 00:48:39.280
America can't support a creature that's more
than about ten feet long. Huh,

593
00:48:39.480 --> 00:48:42.800
I mean, I mean, I
don't know, I mean I could see.

594
00:48:42.840 --> 00:48:45.199
I mean, eels kind of would
make sense, because don't eels when

595
00:48:45.199 --> 00:48:52.239
they get older and they have like
us as, don't they swim away to

596
00:48:52.320 --> 00:48:55.800
the Bermuda Triangle? Oh? Is
that where all eels go? I think?

597
00:48:55.880 --> 00:49:00.920
So, I know, I know
that's the second half that people forget

598
00:49:00.000 --> 00:49:02.639
of the saying it's all dogs go
to heaven and all eels go to the

599
00:49:02.679 --> 00:49:10.920
Bermuda Triangle. So let's see.
The Lockness Center said it's team will deploy

600
00:49:12.079 --> 00:49:15.920
drones equipped with infrared cameras so they
can produce thermal images of the water from

601
00:49:15.920 --> 00:49:21.800
the air. A hydrophone will also
be used to detect acoustic signals under the

602
00:49:21.840 --> 00:49:25.760
water. Okay, I wonder if
this thing is a plesiosaur, then I

603
00:49:25.800 --> 00:49:28.920
guess it would be cold blooded,
I would think, but I don't know.

604
00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:31.880
It really would need the resident dino
expert, which is Rachel. But

605
00:49:31.880 --> 00:49:37.639
I don't think I could get around
the horn this quickly. Yeah, Volunteers

606
00:49:37.679 --> 00:49:40.039
will be asked to keep an eye
out for any breaks or other movement in

607
00:49:40.079 --> 00:49:44.679
the water, with guidance from experts
on what to look out for and how

608
00:49:44.719 --> 00:49:50.599
to record findings. Quote. It's
our hope to inspire a new generation of

609
00:49:50.639 --> 00:49:57.559
Lockness enthusiasts, said Alan McKenna of
Lockness Exploration, another Lockness organization, Lockness

610
00:49:57.599 --> 00:50:01.320
Exploration, a voluntary research team taking
part in the upcoming search. I know

611
00:50:01.400 --> 00:50:05.679
that what they mean as a research
company run by volunteers, but I like

612
00:50:05.719 --> 00:50:09.199
the idea that they're involuntary research teams. Yeah, just pointing a pistol at

613
00:50:09.199 --> 00:50:15.280
you come here, we're gonna learn
about cheese. I don't want to,

614
00:50:15.559 --> 00:50:22.400
No, just involuntary research group.
By joining this large quote, by joining

615
00:50:22.400 --> 00:50:28.320
this large scale surface watch, you'll
have a real opportunity to personally contribute towards

616
00:50:28.400 --> 00:50:32.679
this fascinating mystery that has captivated so
many people from around the world. He

617
00:50:32.760 --> 00:50:39.480
added, Yeah, so that's an
interesting story, so hopefully maybe they'll be

618
00:50:39.519 --> 00:50:45.159
an update of some sort next time. I don't want to say I doubt

619
00:50:45.199 --> 00:50:50.280
it, but I no, no, but I would, I would love

620
00:50:50.280 --> 00:50:53.039
it. Yeah, I'm just confused, Like, why don't they have little

621
00:50:53.119 --> 00:50:59.719
boats go out with those things and
then they can pos under the water.

622
00:51:00.159 --> 00:51:04.079
Yeah, because they've done that again
and again and again and they haven't found

623
00:51:04.119 --> 00:51:07.760
anything. Oh well, because that's
how I think you would find something if

624
00:51:07.800 --> 00:51:09.800
it was there. Yeah, they
so the search they're talking about in the

625
00:51:09.840 --> 00:51:15.159
nineteen seventies, that's what they did. They drug they dragged sonar through the

626
00:51:15.320 --> 00:51:19.880
entire lock and didn't find anything.
I mean, I guess they could.

627
00:51:19.960 --> 00:51:22.159
The lockness monster could be like right
behind the boat the whole time, so

628
00:51:22.199 --> 00:51:28.039
it doesn't get picked up. Yeah, steal and surfboards. Yeah, lousy

629
00:51:28.079 --> 00:51:32.119
lockness monster only tree fitty. I
love the concept of the lockness monster.

630
00:51:32.199 --> 00:51:37.159
And one fun thing about cryptids is
if you don't find them, that means

631
00:51:37.159 --> 00:51:40.880
you didn't look right keep looking exactly. But we can we can laugh about

632
00:51:40.880 --> 00:51:44.960
that and be like ha ha,
skeptic joke. They found the giant squid,

633
00:51:45.920 --> 00:51:49.400
they found the Cela camp. Like, there are things we don't know

634
00:51:49.480 --> 00:51:52.239
about. It's just that when it
comes to relatively land locked water masses,

635
00:51:52.400 --> 00:51:58.719
it gets a little bit trickier.
Yeah, I mean unless it's an interdimensional

636
00:51:58.800 --> 00:52:02.559
being, which it would plain a
lot that would work for me. Yeah,

637
00:52:02.719 --> 00:52:06.000
I'd allow it. I'd allow it. What does that even mean?

638
00:52:06.679 --> 00:52:12.519
So those are pretty much are entire
Those are our animal ones for this this

639
00:52:12.559 --> 00:52:15.639
month, and I like that there
were three in a row, just strange

640
00:52:15.880 --> 00:52:24.320
things. So that all being said, let's see this one's from. I

641
00:52:24.320 --> 00:52:30.559
mean, can you guess where it's
from? You know, I try to

642
00:52:30.639 --> 00:52:36.719
like remember any other news source besides
merridat co dot uk, and I just

643
00:52:36.800 --> 00:52:39.239
like, can't well jokes on you. This one's news week. So I

644
00:52:39.320 --> 00:52:44.360
was setting you up, but you
weren't taking the bait, just like old

645
00:52:44.480 --> 00:52:49.480
nessie. Uh, this one involves
So one of the reasons I love doing

646
00:52:49.679 --> 00:52:54.639
this the spooky news with you is
there's so many stories about homes like haunted

647
00:52:54.719 --> 00:53:00.039
spaces, and I love your opinion
on those. Oh okay, because you

648
00:53:00.559 --> 00:53:05.840
are a home inspector and not just
that you have a interest in homes.

649
00:53:06.239 --> 00:53:13.639
You do so like you're like nope, So this one is called woman living

650
00:53:13.679 --> 00:53:22.239
in Haunted House films while the landlord
can't rent it out now. Exploring a

651
00:53:22.239 --> 00:53:25.639
new home is often a mix of
excitement and trepidation, but one woman's collection

652
00:53:25.679 --> 00:53:31.840
of creepy items is making the property
a difficult cell for her landlord. Becky

653
00:53:31.920 --> 00:53:37.679
and Gallantine, a self described paranormal
investigator from West Hartford, Connecticut, has

654
00:53:37.719 --> 00:53:42.880
shared the unusual objects that potential new
tenants are confronted with when they wander around

655
00:53:43.000 --> 00:53:46.800
her home. When they step into
her victorian house, they are greeted by

656
00:53:46.800 --> 00:53:52.159
the sight of quiji boards, coffins, a headstone, and a skeleton,

657
00:53:52.599 --> 00:53:58.320
among other items. Okay. After
receiving a mixed reaction to her choice of

658
00:53:58.360 --> 00:54:02.800
decor, Gallantine hold Newsweek that she
understands quote it's not for everyone, but

659
00:54:02.840 --> 00:54:08.920
that she's really quote enjoyed seeing everyone's
everyone's gauge for what they think is acceptable.

660
00:54:10.920 --> 00:54:15.960
So while Gallantine's love for all things
gothic and paranormal might seem them unusual

661
00:54:15.000 --> 00:54:20.199
to some, she prefers to see
the beauty and the art that comes with

662
00:54:20.280 --> 00:54:25.199
grief. Quote Oh sorry, Oh
that was it? How dare you?

663
00:54:25.920 --> 00:54:30.000
Quote? I mostly collect sentimental items
with a goal of ensuring the person's memory

664
00:54:30.039 --> 00:54:34.599
has a better chance of retaining its
history and story. She said, I

665
00:54:34.639 --> 00:54:38.480
also dislike seeing deeply personal objects discarded
by family, when some things are the

666
00:54:38.519 --> 00:54:46.519
only connection left on earth for people
of the past. It sounds like she's

667
00:54:46.559 --> 00:54:52.199
just a bad tenant. I'm confused. Does she own the place or she

668
00:54:52.440 --> 00:54:59.119
lives? I think she's renting the
house, but the landlord wants to sell

669
00:54:59.159 --> 00:55:06.440
it. Oh, that's the vibe
I'm getting. Also, I just want

670
00:55:06.480 --> 00:55:12.400
to say, if I die,
if yes, yes, of course you

671
00:55:12.440 --> 00:55:15.239
don't have I don't want some random
person I don't know just taking my personal

672
00:55:15.239 --> 00:55:20.239
belongings and put putting them in their
house. It actually doesn't really preserve my

673
00:55:20.320 --> 00:55:24.000
memory at all because you don't know
me. You'll know her, Yeah,

674
00:55:24.519 --> 00:55:28.760
you'll want them. Would you want
them? Just going like you poser,

675
00:55:29.320 --> 00:55:37.880
you didn't know me, Yeah,
exactly know me. A poll conducted by

676
00:55:37.920 --> 00:55:42.280
you gov in twenty twenty two revealed
that sixty seven percent of Americans believe they've

677
00:55:42.320 --> 00:55:46.159
had some sort of paranormal experience in
their lifetime. The results show that the

678
00:55:46.199 --> 00:55:52.199
most common encounter was feeling a presence
or an unknown energy, which thirty seven

679
00:55:52.239 --> 00:56:00.159
percent of people said they had experienced. Oh, carbon monoxide I wrought At

680
00:56:00.199 --> 00:56:02.679
least seventy percent of Americans do not
have carbon monoxide detectors in their own No.

681
00:56:02.760 --> 00:56:05.719
I don't know if that's a real
number, but it sounds right.

682
00:56:08.119 --> 00:56:13.039
Some thirty three percent of people reported
that they'd heard an unexplained sound, and

683
00:56:13.079 --> 00:56:16.400
twenty nine percent noted that they'd heard
the voice of a person who wasn't actually

684
00:56:16.440 --> 00:56:22.239
there. Okay. I suffer from
auditory hallucinations sometimes, so that one I

685
00:56:22.320 --> 00:56:29.199
don't consider special at all. I
think it depends on like just experience,

686
00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:34.239
because like, I know what an
audit tory hallucination sounds like to me,

687
00:56:34.880 --> 00:56:37.800
you know. Sure. Oh,
I also suffer from sleep paralysis. But

688
00:56:37.840 --> 00:56:40.519
some people think they're being abducted by
aliens during it, and I just get

689
00:56:40.559 --> 00:56:45.079
scared. So yeah, I don't
know. I mean, I know I'm

690
00:56:45.079 --> 00:56:49.559
a genius, but come on.
The least common encounters, according to the

691
00:56:49.599 --> 00:56:53.400
Yugov poll, were that of seeing
unexplained smoke, witnessed by eleven percent of

692
00:56:53.440 --> 00:56:59.639
people, and seeing a demon,
which was reported by ten percent of respondents.

693
00:57:00.079 --> 00:57:02.440
Wow. So, and I'm showing
you right here at Chell. On

694
00:57:02.480 --> 00:57:07.199
the left are the doors from the
Danver State Hospital in Massachusetts, so that's

695
00:57:07.199 --> 00:57:10.360
where those doors came from. And
on the right, is an antique children's

696
00:57:10.400 --> 00:57:15.599
cooling table from the Galantine's part of
the table that Galantine's partner gifted her one

697
00:57:15.719 --> 00:57:21.079
Christmas. Social media has been fascinated
by Galantine's home since she went viral.

698
00:57:21.639 --> 00:57:27.960
So that's a I guess it's called
a children's cooling table. I'm pretty sure

699
00:57:28.000 --> 00:57:34.519
it's just for like when you want
to cool down from the hot summer sun.

700
00:57:35.360 --> 00:57:40.800
I'm gonna have to find out what
that is. Children's cooling Tabletorean cooling

701
00:57:40.880 --> 00:57:47.639
table. During the Victorian area,
it was common for funerals of the deceased

702
00:57:47.639 --> 00:57:52.679
to be held in their homes.
This bereavement practice incorporated the viewing of the

703
00:57:52.679 --> 00:57:54.880
corpse. In the case that the
deceased had passed away before the family was

704
00:57:54.920 --> 00:57:59.360
prepared for the funeral or awake,
the corpse would have to be preserved well

705
00:57:59.440 --> 00:58:05.280
enough for the which might not happen
for several days. So they do things

706
00:58:05.280 --> 00:58:08.519
like your people, they're not gonna
they don't. They don't embalm them,

707
00:58:08.519 --> 00:58:12.880
they just okay, yeah, so
this is this is that was a table

708
00:58:12.920 --> 00:58:15.079
for putting children who are dead on
to keep them preserved until the funeral.

709
00:58:15.559 --> 00:58:21.320
Okay, that's exactly what I thought. It was. I. I did

710
00:58:21.360 --> 00:58:25.119
not think that's what it was.
And now I'm really bothered. What did

711
00:58:25.199 --> 00:58:31.719
you think it? Honestly, my
instinct said that it was like a it

712
00:58:31.760 --> 00:58:35.119
was like a table at a hospital. It was not. It was I

713
00:58:35.159 --> 00:58:37.920
thought it was going to be something
relatively ghastly. I just thought it was

714
00:58:37.960 --> 00:58:44.199
going to be like a like a
table you restrained a crazy child on in

715
00:58:44.280 --> 00:58:49.119
an asylum. Okay, you were
you were taking cooling, not literally correct.

716
00:58:49.480 --> 00:58:52.199
Yeah, I'm a very poetic Literally, I'm a very poetic young man.

717
00:58:53.719 --> 00:58:55.920
Gallantine. Oh, here we go. Here's the detail you wanted.

718
00:58:57.119 --> 00:59:00.199
Galentine is hoping to move out of
her haunted It's in quote Connecticut home as

719
00:59:00.199 --> 00:59:05.320
she's relocating to Virginia, but after
being advertised for a week, her home

720
00:59:05.400 --> 00:59:10.039
hasn't received the most positive response,
she told news Week. Quote one person

721
00:59:10.119 --> 00:59:15.960
toured and I heard him asking quietly
if any other properties were available. The

722
00:59:15.039 --> 00:59:20.559
second individual was still interested. Though
everything I collect is legal, and I

723
00:59:20.599 --> 00:59:24.719
do not collect any human remains.
The headstone is someone's who was decommissioned and

724
00:59:24.800 --> 00:59:30.119
left unused. This art came from
the most difficult period of someone's life,

725
00:59:30.239 --> 00:59:35.159
and it can still be appreciated.
What more can we learn from folks other

726
00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:39.079
than what they created during a time
where they expressed both great love and loss.

727
00:59:42.320 --> 00:59:45.320
Yeah okay, so basically the house
is just a disaster. Yeah,

728
00:59:45.320 --> 00:59:50.559
the house is just horrible. Yeah
yeah, but like it's literally falling down

729
00:59:51.039 --> 00:59:54.079
and it's and it's like, oh
no, it's just the ghost stuff.

730
00:59:54.119 --> 00:59:58.360
That's not the reason. Oh no, this is just ghosts. Man,

731
00:59:58.440 --> 01:00:00.599
suck it up, Buttercup, come
on, you need a roof over here.

732
01:00:01.639 --> 01:00:05.840
Oh my god. Gallantine posted a
video, which by the way,

733
01:00:05.960 --> 01:00:09.199
is at my Bloody Gallantine, which
is the best freaking thing I've ever heard,

734
01:00:10.480 --> 01:00:15.519
the titled reasons my landlord can't find
anyone to rent my place on May

735
01:00:15.599 --> 01:00:20.039
thirty first, which has already generated
over one point five million views on TikTok.

736
01:00:20.400 --> 01:00:22.920
In the hilarious clip, Gallantine revealed
the unique items in her home.

737
01:00:23.280 --> 01:00:29.559
Although possible tenants aren't too keen on
her ornamentation, social media has loved it,

738
01:00:30.280 --> 01:00:34.639
she continued, This whole experience has
been really exciting and positive. Instead

739
01:00:34.639 --> 01:00:37.599
of calling me weird, folks have
reached out wanting to be friends. Out

740
01:00:37.599 --> 01:00:42.320
of thousands, there may have been
one person who didn't like it. Well,

741
01:00:42.360 --> 01:00:46.000
aside from your landlord. Yeah,
yeah, I okay. If I

742
01:00:46.119 --> 01:00:49.559
was the landlord, I'd be like, listen, lady, you're gonna have

743
01:00:49.639 --> 01:00:55.559
to rent a storage thing and take
all this crap out. Really, you're

744
01:00:55.559 --> 01:01:00.599
shaking your head. No, I
I think I think the lord is just

745
01:01:00.599 --> 01:01:04.559
gonna have to wait to rent the
house until after she leaps. No,

746
01:01:04.760 --> 01:01:07.000
that's and that's a fair point too. I would be like, all right,

747
01:01:07.039 --> 01:01:12.519
get out, freaking weirdo. Let
you TikTok buddies, put you up

748
01:01:12.559 --> 01:01:19.199
for the night. Out, get
on out of here. Quote. There

749
01:01:19.199 --> 01:01:22.400
were a lot of comments that said
everything in the video was all right,

750
01:01:22.440 --> 01:01:25.599
except specific items that they had a
boundary for, such as the Wigi board.

751
01:01:25.840 --> 01:01:30.440
The coffins and headstone are fine,
but the Wigi wasn't. Of course,

752
01:01:30.480 --> 01:01:36.239
it's the frigging Hasbro toy that you
gotta get. You gotta get out

753
01:01:36.280 --> 01:01:38.559
of there. You know, we
can't have that Hasbro toy in here.

754
01:01:39.039 --> 01:01:44.000
By the way, so I've made
a couple of films that feature Wigi boards,

755
01:01:44.000 --> 01:01:46.280
and I want to point out that
the Wigi board that Parker Brothers originally

756
01:01:46.320 --> 01:01:51.360
made, which is now owned by
Hasbro, that is trademarked. So you

757
01:01:51.440 --> 01:01:53.159
have to make your own wigi board
to be on camera in a movie.

758
01:01:53.559 --> 01:01:59.480
Generally you could get away with it
maybe, but you really can't. If

759
01:01:59.480 --> 01:02:01.639
you like call at a wigi board
and then show their board, you run

760
01:02:01.679 --> 01:02:07.639
the risk of getting in trouble.
So that being said, I have these

761
01:02:07.679 --> 01:02:10.639
two wigi boards that my production designer
made. One's would burned and one is

762
01:02:10.679 --> 01:02:15.559
more traditional on like a thick cardboard
stock. And whenever I introduced new people

763
01:02:15.559 --> 01:02:17.360
to it, they always say like, oh, where'd you get that weigi

764
01:02:17.400 --> 01:02:22.039
board? To go? Well,
I was in Massachusetts one summer and I

765
01:02:22.079 --> 01:02:24.599
stopped at a garage sale and this
woman who looked like she hadn't slept in

766
01:02:24.719 --> 01:02:29.159
days, was telling me all about
it. And after I asked a couple

767
01:02:29.159 --> 01:02:31.599
of follow up questions because I thought
it was a perfectly good gift or perfectly

768
01:02:31.639 --> 01:02:36.079
good prop, she just told me
I could have it like right then and

769
01:02:36.119 --> 01:02:37.960
there and yeah, And then they
go like really, I'm like, no,

770
01:02:38.079 --> 01:02:43.559
my prop guy made it. I've
thought about trolling TikTok with it and

771
01:02:43.599 --> 01:02:45.679
being like you know and doing that
thing where I fill it, but I

772
01:02:45.719 --> 01:02:49.480
used that fake voice. I found
this at a garage sale near sale and

773
01:02:49.559 --> 01:02:53.519
Massachusetts. Yeah, it's very nice, but sometimes it screams, you know.

774
01:02:55.880 --> 01:02:59.840
The TikTok video was all received over
two hundred thousand likes and more than

775
01:02:59.840 --> 01:03:02.320
one thousand, seven hundred comments in
just a matter of days. Many social

776
01:03:02.320 --> 01:03:07.559
media users love Gallantine's unorthodox taste,
which others had, while others had a

777
01:03:07.559 --> 01:03:13.360
lot of questions. One commenter wrote, doors to the Danverse State Hospital is

778
01:03:13.400 --> 01:03:17.800
such a flex though inspiration for Arkham
Asylum. Another person commented, okay,

779
01:03:19.039 --> 01:03:22.599
but coffin is a coffee table,
is brilliant, lots of extra storage,

780
01:03:23.239 --> 01:03:27.320
so that is and that's not only
is this a nice Newsweek story, but

781
01:03:27.360 --> 01:03:31.599
it's another example of how tiktoks are
now news. Yeah, yeah, exactly.

782
01:03:32.320 --> 01:03:36.320
But on that note, we're going
to take a quick break unless you

783
01:03:36.320 --> 01:03:38.440
have anything else you want to say
about her throwing her landlord under the bus

784
01:03:38.440 --> 01:03:43.440
by having a bunch of creepy dead
people stuff. No, that's her right,

785
01:03:43.559 --> 01:03:49.400
and he should wait until after she
moves to rent the property. Jeez,

786
01:03:49.840 --> 01:03:52.960
not that hard. Well, then
she shouldn't go viral off of it.

787
01:03:52.960 --> 01:03:55.880
Oh, I don't think that's really
helping her really a lot. So

788
01:03:58.360 --> 01:04:11.239
we'll be right back after these messages
and we are back with more spooky news,

789
01:04:11.280 --> 01:04:15.199
and this one shell you can actually
accurately guess where's this story? From

790
01:04:15.239 --> 01:04:26.760
Chell Newsweek, Mirror dot co dot
uk. I've permanently damaged our trust,

791
01:04:28.840 --> 01:04:31.239
but this one is more what you
would expect from Mirror dot co dot uk

792
01:04:32.039 --> 01:04:40.440
because it's all about creepy houses.
So this story is inside one of the

793
01:04:40.480 --> 01:04:46.440
world's most haunted homes, filled with
creepy dolls and satanic signs. And I'm

794
01:04:46.480 --> 01:04:50.159
showing you some pictures right there,
Chell, that's charming, right that little

795
01:04:50.159 --> 01:04:54.719
wall with Wait, that's a star
of David. It is a star of

796
01:04:54.800 --> 01:04:59.840
David. Yes, I've I always
laugh out loud when I see that because

797
01:04:59.840 --> 01:05:01.360
it's like people like it's a pentacle, and I'm like, that's a star

798
01:05:01.440 --> 01:05:06.320
of David. Yeah, the Jewish
star for people who don't know what the

799
01:05:06.400 --> 01:05:11.360
star of David. I worked on
a movie once and a girl was trying

800
01:05:11.400 --> 01:05:15.360
to describe the Star of David like
I describe it, and she like thought

801
01:05:15.360 --> 01:05:18.679
and thought and thought, and then
said one of those Hanaka stars. And

802
01:05:19.000 --> 01:05:26.320
I will never forget how hard I
laugh. I mean, we all knew

803
01:05:26.320 --> 01:05:30.039
what she meant, though, so
I so maybe she's a genius communicator and

804
01:05:30.440 --> 01:05:34.599
I'm in denial. Yeah, probably
it's any any answer that's I'm the problem

805
01:05:34.719 --> 01:05:40.000
is probably right. I mean,
that's so well. I usually go for

806
01:05:40.159 --> 01:05:45.679
with me. Oh this one.
Is it terrible that it's scarier that it's

807
01:05:45.719 --> 01:05:50.559
in Mexico. It's scarier that it's
in Mexico. No made me. Yeah,

808
01:05:50.679 --> 01:05:54.800
No, it's terrible that it's scarier
that it's in Mexico. Like,

809
01:05:54.840 --> 01:05:59.320
I don't think I am already not
scared of it because there's a star.

810
01:06:00.079 --> 01:06:02.800
It's not, it's not. It's
that someone just doesn't even know what the

811
01:06:02.840 --> 01:06:08.280
correct Satanic symbols are, so like
I'm not scared of or they're the rare

812
01:06:08.320 --> 01:06:14.280
breed of Jewish Satanists. Yeah,
I'm in okay, I'm here for it.

813
01:06:15.440 --> 01:06:18.880
The haunted home in Mexico, known
as the White House, was filled

814
01:06:18.920 --> 01:06:24.039
with creepy paraphernalia, including dolls,
bird feathers, and satanic symbols, the

815
01:06:24.159 --> 01:06:28.519
Urban Explorer found. So that's that's
so. What we're looking at is video

816
01:06:28.599 --> 01:06:30.480
and photos, although there's only one
on the article which I showed you.

817
01:06:30.599 --> 01:06:33.400
Oh there's some more I'll show in
a minute. But these were videos and

818
01:06:33.440 --> 01:06:38.760
photos taken by an urban explorer.
Okay, how do you feel about urban

819
01:06:38.800 --> 01:06:42.679
exploration? I feel like you're probably
into it. Yeah, I like,

820
01:06:42.920 --> 01:06:49.920
I like it. But it's but
I take urban exploration like ghost type exploration,

821
01:06:50.159 --> 01:06:56.519
ghosts hunting with a huge grain of
salt. That's not how salt grains

822
01:06:56.559 --> 01:07:00.000
come. They're very small. No, sometimes you can have big flakes.

823
01:07:00.480 --> 01:07:02.039
That's I know. I prefer the
big flakes. Did you know that it's

824
01:07:02.119 --> 01:07:09.760
really hard to get coarse iodized sea
salt? I hadn't thought about it.

825
01:07:09.800 --> 01:07:14.000
No, it took I had to
special order it from Italy anyway, So

826
01:07:14.440 --> 01:07:15.920
yeah, I like it. It's
like I special order my salt from Italy.

827
01:07:16.000 --> 01:07:26.599
It costs nine dollars canister. But
anyway, I like urban exploration.

828
01:07:26.719 --> 01:07:30.679
I'm I'm I get a little creeped
out if it's a place that's like I

829
01:07:30.719 --> 01:07:38.840
don't want to trespass. I'm a
big whiny baby and I don't want to

830
01:07:38.880 --> 01:07:45.320
get in trouble. Yeah, I
understand that that I'm a big whiny baby,

831
01:07:45.400 --> 01:07:46.159
or that I don't want to get
in trouble or which part? I

832
01:07:47.079 --> 01:07:51.280
mean this entire sentiment, right,
Okay, Well, yeah, I just

833
01:07:51.559 --> 01:07:54.960
I'm I just don't want to get
in trouble o, right, Like,

834
01:07:55.039 --> 01:08:00.159
I keep my interaction with police to
a absolute minimum. No need for me

835
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:02.960
to get arrested and have a criminal
record that could be used against me in

836
01:08:02.960 --> 01:08:09.159
the future. Yeah. An urban
explorer managed to keep his nerve as he

837
01:08:09.239 --> 01:08:13.360
made his way around a building haunted
by a woman in a white dress.

838
01:08:14.000 --> 01:08:17.960
Jose Flores visited the home dubbed the
White House owing to the color of its

839
01:08:18.000 --> 01:08:21.920
walls, which is believed to be
have been ghost ridden since the nineteen Yeah,

840
01:08:21.920 --> 01:08:30.560
white walls, unusual feature. So
casa de blanco, Casa de blanco,

841
01:08:31.239 --> 01:08:32.960
that has to be I mean,
I assume that's what they're calling it.

842
01:08:33.199 --> 01:08:38.600
Yeah. Uh, let's see,
the twenty three year old was allowed

843
01:08:38.680 --> 01:08:41.359
in. Okay, see this,
I like, the twenty three year old

844
01:08:41.359 --> 01:08:45.079
was allowed in with the current owner's
permission, but what he found inside would

845
01:08:45.119 --> 01:08:47.800
give him the bravest chill of people
would give the bravest of people chills.

846
01:08:48.000 --> 01:08:50.920
I'm assuming that the owner was like, here are the keys, be well,

847
01:08:51.000 --> 01:08:54.359
and then they walked in and the
corpse of the owner was just laying

848
01:08:54.399 --> 01:09:02.720
in the middle of the that's a
good opening. The front door. Jose

849
01:09:02.960 --> 01:09:09.119
was met by a red satanic symbol
painted on the wall. I'm guessing he

850
01:09:09.199 --> 01:09:15.800
means the star of David nice Um. So who wrote this article? Good

851
01:09:15.880 --> 01:09:20.920
question, Anthony Thrower, Anthony Thrower, I apologize. We gotta find him.

852
01:09:21.159 --> 01:09:26.800
We're gonna find you, Anthony.
Anthony, have a conversation. I

853
01:09:26.880 --> 01:09:30.199
have a conversation. The discovery set
the tone for the rest of the creepy

854
01:09:30.239 --> 01:09:32.439
trip around the house. I'm going
to show you the exterior of the house,

855
01:09:32.479 --> 01:09:38.199
Michelle. It is very nice,
like it's a big, a stately

856
01:09:38.279 --> 01:09:42.239
house. Would you would you call
it stately? I's got like pillar beams

857
01:09:42.319 --> 01:09:50.439
and stuff. Yeah, super disrepair
obviously, also white. Yeah, I

858
01:09:50.439 --> 01:09:56.199
mean, what do you think when
you first see this picture? I think

859
01:09:56.239 --> 01:10:00.920
I can only see a very small
portion of the house even really sure what

860
01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:03.239
it looks like. Do you want
me to put it in the photoshop and

861
01:10:03.279 --> 01:10:08.239
ai it to extend it until it
turns into weird hands? Yeah, lots

862
01:10:08.239 --> 01:10:13.680
of hands. I mean it maybe
it's like because it has it looks like

863
01:10:13.720 --> 01:10:19.600
it has the the columns look like
they go up further, like there's a

864
01:10:19.680 --> 01:10:23.880
deck on top. So maybe I
don't remember what kind of style home that

865
01:10:24.000 --> 01:10:27.880
is right now, And I want
to embarrass myself maybe, Like that's okay,

866
01:10:28.439 --> 01:10:32.199
Yeah, I'll embarrass myself. That's
a Marindo style house. Okay.

867
01:10:35.000 --> 01:10:40.760
Several doors were damaged inside the home, and Jose also found handprints and scratches

868
01:10:40.800 --> 01:10:53.479
on the walls and two prosthetic legs. Oh no, I don't know what

869
01:10:53.560 --> 01:10:58.399
to say to that. Like,
the reason it's scarier to me that this

870
01:10:58.479 --> 01:11:03.640
is a magico is because Cartel's lawlessness. That's what's freaking me out, is

871
01:11:03.680 --> 01:11:09.439
Like, are those prosthetic legs from
like people that cartels may disappear and they

872
01:11:09.520 --> 01:11:13.680
just that that's where they keep the
prosthetic legs of people that they kill.

873
01:11:14.239 --> 01:11:17.199
Chell, Where would you keep them? I would sell them? What do

874
01:11:17.199 --> 01:11:21.479
you mean that's a that's a quick
way to create a paper trail. Oh

875
01:11:21.479 --> 01:11:28.920
well, not if you don't.
I don't know, not if you don't

876
01:11:28.920 --> 01:11:33.279
the end. Other discoveries were from
people's nightmares, as he found a room

877
01:11:33.319 --> 01:11:40.279
full of dolls all hanging from the
ceiling and a bathtub full of feathers.

878
01:11:40.479 --> 01:11:45.680
Okay. Some doors were locked shut, leaving only people's imagination on what might

879
01:11:45.720 --> 01:11:48.479
be inside. If I had to
guess, a well appointed study, maybe

880
01:11:48.600 --> 01:11:50.960
like a home office. Yeah,
yeah, one of those, one of

881
01:11:50.960 --> 01:11:54.840
those a zoom room. You know, it's just a very basic but nice

882
01:11:54.840 --> 01:11:57.760
looking background. So when you zoom, it looks, oh yeah, yeah,

883
01:11:57.960 --> 01:11:59.560
zoom room. I don't know if
that's actually a thing, but it

884
01:11:59.600 --> 01:12:02.720
should be. Zoomoom. So you
see those handprints right there, Chell,

885
01:12:03.119 --> 01:12:08.720
Yeah, it's kind of creepy.
I mean, people of hands and they

886
01:12:08.760 --> 01:12:11.720
touch things. So I don't know. That's great, that doesn't scare you.

887
01:12:11.760 --> 01:12:14.239
I feel like that does scare you. No, I don't really know

888
01:12:14.279 --> 01:12:16.880
why that would scare me, because
people touching things. I thought you just

889
01:12:17.000 --> 01:12:19.680
I thought, oh no, I
just don't want them to touch me.

890
01:12:20.399 --> 01:12:24.399
I don't care if they touch the
walls in a house I've never been to.

891
01:12:25.600 --> 01:12:29.159
It's always about you, always about
you. And do you see these

892
01:12:29.199 --> 01:12:33.720
dolls on this like thing hanging from
the that's creepy. That's pretty cool.

893
01:12:34.520 --> 01:12:38.079
Yeah, the dolls are I was
about to say the dolls aren't even that

894
01:12:38.119 --> 01:12:40.479
scary, but that actually makes it
scarier. When the dolls look normal,

895
01:12:40.520 --> 01:12:45.560
it actually is creepier. It's like, oh sorry, please, looks like

896
01:12:45.560 --> 01:12:48.640
like an installation, like an art
installation. No, it totally does.

897
01:12:49.319 --> 01:12:53.520
I think that when the dolls are
old and creepy, then your fear is

898
01:12:53.560 --> 01:12:55.800
the dolls. You're like, oh, the dolls are haunted. But when

899
01:12:55.800 --> 01:12:59.840
the dolls are like normal looking,
your fear is who did something to the

900
01:13:00.000 --> 01:13:02.119
owners of these dolls? Like,
I think that's the way it does to

901
01:13:02.159 --> 01:13:04.800
me. Is like, if I
see creepy vintage dolls, I'm like,

902
01:13:04.920 --> 01:13:09.079
uh, spooky doll. But if
I see regular dolls all like in a

903
01:13:09.119 --> 01:13:13.359
pile in an abandoned building, I
go someone's killing children like that? You

904
01:13:13.359 --> 01:13:18.520
know, both scary, different ways, different ways. Despite the spooky findings,

905
01:13:18.600 --> 01:13:23.560
Jose was unable to find any sign
of the woman in the white dress,

906
01:13:23.720 --> 01:13:27.239
who was said to have wandered the
halls since the nineteen eighties. He

907
01:13:27.359 --> 01:13:30.720
said, quote, the only thing
we know is that that woman decided to

908
01:13:30.800 --> 01:13:34.680
leave the house because she had suffered
a family tragedy. Apparently she lost her

909
01:13:34.680 --> 01:13:39.439
son and husband, and people who
passed by this place see the woman in

910
01:13:39.520 --> 01:13:45.760
white through the windows. So in
are you seeing see this bathroom? Bathroom?

911
01:13:45.880 --> 01:13:47.319
Yep? What do you think of
that bathroom? Is it? Like?

912
01:13:47.399 --> 01:13:51.239
Really? It could be updated?
Right? I think it looks fine.

913
01:13:51.279 --> 01:13:56.680
I like that the toilet and the
tub or some sort of like greenish

914
01:13:56.680 --> 01:14:00.479
bluish color. Yeah, it's kind
of an aqua. Yeah yeah, but

915
01:14:00.520 --> 01:14:04.640
then the toilet seats like purple.
But I think that might just be I

916
01:14:04.640 --> 01:14:09.239
think that might just be neglect.
Yeah, well you can get a new

917
01:14:09.279 --> 01:14:12.359
toilet seat. So oh yeah,
Well, I mean I meant though,

918
01:14:12.399 --> 01:14:15.399
like, because like there's purple in
some areas. Maybe it's also lighting.

919
01:14:15.880 --> 01:14:18.199
Yeah, I'm wondering if that's like
dirt. But it's just because of the

920
01:14:19.000 --> 01:14:25.439
little led flashlight he's using. I
will say he's focusing the flashlight beam,

921
01:14:25.479 --> 01:14:29.439
which is a trick I use and
found footage movies to create more tension because

922
01:14:29.479 --> 01:14:33.680
you see you can because it reveals
less of the view at once. Yeah,

923
01:14:33.720 --> 01:14:40.039
on the second floor. That is
really scary doll on the second floor.

924
01:14:40.039 --> 01:14:43.520
This woman has been seen several times. Jose shared his finding as a

925
01:14:43.560 --> 01:14:46.079
social media and has racked up thirty
six thousand, two hundred likes on TikTok,

926
01:14:46.680 --> 01:14:50.720
many of another TikTok's don't Worry his
news. Many viewers said they thought

927
01:14:50.720 --> 01:14:55.239
they saw a running figure in the
video, leading them to believe it was

928
01:14:55.279 --> 01:14:59.640
one of the ghosts Jose was searching
for. Oh now, this is where

929
01:14:59.640 --> 01:15:05.159
it gets really weird. First,
we have this very creepy doll. Yeah,

930
01:15:05.319 --> 01:15:10.000
it looks like at one time it
was a modestly creepy di iy doll,

931
01:15:10.680 --> 01:15:15.760
and then time made it way scarier
or like a pinata. Okay,

932
01:15:15.800 --> 01:15:19.119
now you're being a little inappropriate.
It doesn't look at pata a little bit

933
01:15:19.119 --> 01:15:24.439
actually, but it kind of looks
like it's covered in like plaster or putty.

934
01:15:26.479 --> 01:15:30.359
But next to that, there's a
photo of a wall just full of

935
01:15:30.359 --> 01:15:34.079
of what are those called tally marks? You know, one two three four

936
01:15:34.319 --> 01:15:38.920
slash one two three four, and
it's full of tally marks, and then

937
01:15:38.960 --> 01:15:44.800
the letters five hundred just written over
top. Yeah, what what? What

938
01:15:44.840 --> 01:15:49.319
do you imagine occurred to cause that? Like there were two people and they're

939
01:15:49.319 --> 01:15:54.600
playing some sort of game and then
keeping track. I guess, like who

940
01:15:54.640 --> 01:16:00.399
can murder the most innocent people?
I was thinking checkers. I mean,

941
01:16:00.439 --> 01:16:05.159
that's a good one too. One
viewer said. In the beginning, a

942
01:16:05.199 --> 01:16:10.199
shadow appears running. Norman added,
bro, you have to be very very

943
01:16:10.239 --> 01:16:14.479
careful, never go alone. Anna
added the ghost of the woman. Guys,

944
01:16:14.560 --> 01:16:17.039
beware. That's helpful, Anna,
thank you. Yeah, and there's

945
01:16:17.159 --> 01:16:21.119
another look at the hamprint that hamdprints. A child size hamprint too, is

946
01:16:21.159 --> 01:16:29.840
a child size hamdprint. I'm getting
a little creeped out. I mean kids

947
01:16:29.880 --> 01:16:33.000
like to put their hands on things
though, so yes, they also like

948
01:16:33.119 --> 01:16:42.479
dolls and tally marks and the star
of David Wendy said of the video quote,

949
01:16:42.520 --> 01:16:45.399
I already went there with my aunt, my stepfather, and my mother,

950
01:16:45.439 --> 01:16:48.279
and it really feels a very strange
vibe and it feels like someone is

951
01:16:48.319 --> 01:16:54.000
watching you. It comes as earlier
this month, a woman was shocked when

952
01:16:54.000 --> 01:16:58.760
she spotted a ghostly white figure floating
around while while on a visit to the

953
01:16:58.800 --> 01:17:03.319
beach. I think some of this
is translated a little poorly maybe, I

954
01:17:03.359 --> 01:17:08.760
guess early a month earlier someone sided
the ghostly white woman floating near that house.

955
01:17:10.119 --> 01:17:13.359
So okay. Oh, and there's
the feathers in the bathtub. I

956
01:17:13.359 --> 01:17:15.800
thought it was gonna be a lot
more feathers. That just looks like some

957
01:17:15.840 --> 01:17:19.760
birds died exactly. Yeah, that's
a cool bathtub though, Yeah, it

958
01:17:19.760 --> 01:17:23.439
just needs a little work. As
a home inspector, what do you see

959
01:17:23.439 --> 01:17:29.119
as a problem. I mean,
I can't really tell. It's just healthy.

960
01:17:29.239 --> 01:17:33.960
It's too fealthy to tell. Fair. The witness was out walking when

961
01:17:33.960 --> 01:17:38.079
she spotted a white figure on the
beach in the distance, which she believes

962
01:17:38.119 --> 01:17:41.560
could be otherworldly in nature. I
mean, that's a lot more exciting of

963
01:17:41.600 --> 01:17:46.720
a solution. The Eyrie encounter took
place on Thursday evening of May eleventh,

964
01:17:47.039 --> 01:17:54.600
on Cleethorpe's Beach amid amid heavy fog. Oh look at that staircase. That's

965
01:17:54.640 --> 01:18:00.239
pretty nice. So that's the winding
staircase. Yeah, this place was gorgeous,

966
01:18:00.239 --> 01:18:06.000
like really cool house. The quick
thinking walker managed to snap two photos

967
01:18:06.039 --> 01:18:10.920
of the apparition before heading back to
her car. She posted the snaps to

968
01:18:10.920 --> 01:18:14.319
see what others made of them.
She confirmed she couldn't make out if the

969
01:18:14.319 --> 01:18:18.199
ghostly image contained a person or quote
something else. Let's let's look at the

970
01:18:18.239 --> 01:18:23.279
picture real quick, you and me. Okay, I've got to not be

971
01:18:23.319 --> 01:18:27.399
it. I don't think this is
it at all. I clicked on the

972
01:18:27.439 --> 01:18:30.600
link. They told me too.
I know you did. Let's try that

973
01:18:30.640 --> 01:18:34.039
again. Oh gosh, okay,
I hope it's the picture of the dog

974
01:18:34.359 --> 01:18:39.920
jumping. I can't. Yeah,
I'm not seeing it. Yeah, Mirror

975
01:18:40.000 --> 01:18:43.239
dot co dot uk. They just
want your money. They don't care about

976
01:18:43.479 --> 01:18:46.439
and all they care about two things, money, and ghosts, and they're

977
01:18:46.520 --> 01:18:50.319
all out of ghosts. All right, I'm gonna give up on trying to

978
01:18:50.319 --> 01:18:55.239
find that. Yeah, yeah,
so Shell, what do you think when

979
01:18:55.279 --> 01:18:59.479
it comes to like do you have
a personal theory when it comes to concepts

980
01:18:59.520 --> 01:19:03.439
like this? Like this is clearly
a beautiful, beautiful, stately home.

981
01:19:03.479 --> 01:19:08.720
It's huge, it's near the ocean, so it's probably got a lot of

982
01:19:08.760 --> 01:19:12.079
value. It's obvious whoever built it
had a lot of money. Yeah.

983
01:19:12.119 --> 01:19:15.159
I don't know a lot about this
Mexican town. I imagine it must be

984
01:19:15.239 --> 01:19:19.760
slightly more affluent than the average town
maybe, But then it fell into disrepair

985
01:19:20.520 --> 01:19:26.239
and people started believing ghost stories.
M what do you what do you take

986
01:19:26.319 --> 01:19:32.720
from that about about what part?
Like why do you think that that happens

987
01:19:32.760 --> 01:19:39.479
not just there but all over the
world that people think that they're a ghost

988
01:19:39.560 --> 01:19:43.039
there? Or yeah, that like
nice homes fall into disrepair and become you

989
01:19:43.079 --> 01:19:46.479
know, full of ghost stories.
I mean, I think usually what happens

990
01:19:46.600 --> 01:19:51.079
is you the person who wants it
dies and they leave it to they either

991
01:19:51.119 --> 01:19:55.840
don't leave it to anybody, but
usually they leave leave it to a family

992
01:19:55.880 --> 01:20:00.239
member who doesn't really want it,
can't afford the upkeep, but doesn't want

993
01:20:00.239 --> 01:20:03.239
to sell it for some reason,
so they think that one day it'll be

994
01:20:03.279 --> 01:20:05.800
worth even more something they could be
waiting on the market, they could be

995
01:20:05.800 --> 01:20:10.520
waiting to fix it up. I
think a lot of times it's, uh,

996
01:20:11.119 --> 01:20:15.760
it's just like it's two first,
like they might not have No,

997
01:20:15.800 --> 01:20:17.119
that's not what I was gonna say. I think it's like it's like a

998
01:20:17.199 --> 01:20:19.840
thing, like a sentimental thing a
lot of the time, like they're just

999
01:20:19.840 --> 01:20:23.840
not really sure what to do.
But it was their mom's house something like

1000
01:20:23.880 --> 01:20:28.880
that, so it just like sits
there and kind of slowly falls apart,

1001
01:20:29.439 --> 01:20:32.199
because that's what houses do when you
don't live in them, they just die.

1002
01:20:33.640 --> 01:20:36.880
So and then it's really easy.
They just see a house that looks

1003
01:20:36.920 --> 01:20:43.520
scary because it's all abandoned and think
that there's ghosts in there, and you

1004
01:20:43.560 --> 01:20:49.800
have these urban explorers coming around that
are drawing Star of David's in the house

1005
01:20:50.359 --> 01:20:58.079
and scaring people. And also,
like my problem with ghosts, urban exploration,

1006
01:20:58.119 --> 01:21:02.439
ghost hunting is a lot of the
things that people here or see may

1007
01:21:02.479 --> 01:21:06.039
just be homeless people. So like, sure, yeah, definitely, I

1008
01:21:06.119 --> 01:21:11.279
definitely. I'm never really convinced I
think urban exploration is cool, but as

1009
01:21:11.399 --> 01:21:14.960
as a ghost hunting thing, I
don't. I don't have a lot of

1010
01:21:15.039 --> 01:21:19.279
I don't give it a lot of
credit. Ooh, Chell taken off for

1011
01:21:19.359 --> 01:21:25.039
gloves today. Sorry, I think
you're onto something there, because I've always

1012
01:21:25.039 --> 01:21:29.279
thought when I see these kinds of
big, beautiful houses that fall into disrepair,

1013
01:21:29.920 --> 01:21:32.680
I feel like a lot of that
comes from the fact that before the

1014
01:21:32.720 --> 01:21:36.920
Internet and everything like that, if
somebody just died, why would there in

1015
01:21:36.920 --> 01:21:42.000
the community, And now the houses
in disrepair, there's no communication with the

1016
01:21:42.000 --> 01:21:45.840
townspeople about like who the heir of
the house is, or what the meeting

1017
01:21:45.960 --> 01:21:48.399
went like with the lawyer, why
no one's living there. So I feel

1018
01:21:48.399 --> 01:21:54.600
like, as humans do we find
answers, even if we have to make

1019
01:21:54.600 --> 01:22:00.439
them up, even if we have
to invent them. Yeah, so oh

1020
01:22:00.520 --> 01:22:03.159
sorry, please, Oh you can
say what you're gonna say. I was

1021
01:22:03.159 --> 01:22:10.119
gonna say. Also, there have
been many examples throughout history of people moving

1022
01:22:10.119 --> 01:22:15.239
into houses and then realizing they can't
afford them and then basically like claiming that

1023
01:22:15.319 --> 01:22:18.680
they're haunted or whatever and that's why
they're moving out. So it could be

1024
01:22:18.800 --> 01:22:23.600
kind of the safe face, especially
when we're talking like the thirties and forties.

1025
01:22:23.680 --> 01:22:26.079
It could be like, why are
you guys leaving such a beautiful home.

1026
01:22:26.119 --> 01:22:29.159
It's like, Oh, there's a
lady in white that sees you know,

1027
01:22:29.239 --> 01:22:30.720
that watches us around, and I
just can't do it anymore. It's

1028
01:22:30.720 --> 01:22:34.840
doo creepy. Yeah. I don't
know, they're little thoughts like that come

1029
01:22:34.880 --> 01:22:40.760
into my head. Yeah, yeah, And I mean I don't know about

1030
01:22:40.800 --> 01:22:45.920
the point of people like vacating houses
as well that some areas like I mean,

1031
01:22:46.000 --> 01:22:48.319
that's a beautiful house, but that
doesn't mean it's a good area.

1032
01:22:48.640 --> 01:22:53.560
Maybe it was at one point.
Maybe you can't sell that anymore for more

1033
01:22:53.600 --> 01:22:58.039
than a you know, like a
little bit of money, you know,

1034
01:22:58.640 --> 01:23:02.199
like maybe it's like certain areas of
you know kind of like sorry, but

1035
01:23:02.319 --> 01:23:06.159
like Detroit and stuff, why do
you apologize? I don't know, I

1036
01:23:06.199 --> 01:23:10.760
felt like anything to apologize. Somebody, somebody who lives in Detroit is listening

1037
01:23:10.760 --> 01:23:12.960
to this right now and goes,
wait a second, are you saying And

1038
01:23:12.960 --> 01:23:16.239
then they look up at like the
wasteland and they're like, oh, how

1039
01:23:16.319 --> 01:23:24.119
hurtful. No, Detroit's had had
a rough go. Yeah, So so

1040
01:23:24.199 --> 01:23:28.319
we'll leave you with this before we
go to a break. Michelle hates Detroit.

1041
01:23:29.920 --> 01:23:33.439
Sorry Detroit, Chell says, you
suck and you're and all of Detroit

1042
01:23:33.520 --> 01:23:38.399
is haunted. That's what That's what
Michelle has to say, all of it.

1043
01:23:38.760 --> 01:23:41.920
Do you have any advice for the
people suffering the mass hauntings in Detroit?

1044
01:23:43.720 --> 01:23:47.720
Yeah? But I yeah, don't
live there anymore. It's too scary.

1045
01:23:49.079 --> 01:23:53.520
And speaking of Detroit, if you
haven't listened to our most recent cutting

1046
01:23:53.560 --> 01:23:58.199
Deep into Horror episode, which aired
last last week or so, it's with

1047
01:23:58.239 --> 01:24:00.279
myself and Rachel Adolphi. We talk
about the film Barbarian, which takes place

1048
01:24:00.279 --> 01:24:05.439
in Detroit. Wow. So,
and a major story point is Detroit's economic

1049
01:24:05.520 --> 01:24:10.279
struggles. So definitely worth listening to
if you haven't already. But we're going

1050
01:24:10.359 --> 01:24:13.800
to take a quick break and we'll
be back with even more spooky news.

1051
01:24:23.159 --> 01:24:26.760
And we are back, and Chell, we like to have fun here at

1052
01:24:26.880 --> 01:24:30.600
monthly Spooky We do. Yeah,
I didn't think you got the memo,

1053
01:24:30.720 --> 01:24:36.920
but yes we do. But have
you ever thought about the effect that some

1054
01:24:38.000 --> 01:24:45.800
of these fun, goofy adventury things
have on communities? Maybe this story is

1055
01:24:45.840 --> 01:24:53.079
from Newsweek. Oh and it says
paranormal spook hunters are ruining our village.

1056
01:24:55.439 --> 01:25:00.840
Oh you sounds sad already. Yeah. A crumbling Turkish village has become a

1057
01:25:00.880 --> 01:25:08.279
hot pot for ghost hunters and paranormal
influencers after most of the population fled forty

1058
01:25:08.439 --> 01:25:14.279
years ago. Oh. The village
of Lubby in the Turkish province of Izmir

1059
01:25:14.920 --> 01:25:19.479
used to be home to over two
hundred people. Only five have remained since

1060
01:25:19.560 --> 01:25:27.159
two thousand and thirteen. Population increased
to eight during the COVID nineteen pandem.

1061
01:25:29.960 --> 01:25:34.800
Now it's spooky appearance has made the
place a magnet for paranormal influencers and ghost

1062
01:25:34.840 --> 01:25:42.079
hunters, which angers the few remaining
villagers. Oh, first of all,

1063
01:25:42.880 --> 01:25:47.439
villagers are angry. I think of
just pitchforks and torches immediately. That's okay,

1064
01:25:47.680 --> 01:25:53.479
That's what I think of. Far
none, that's it. Yeah,

1065
01:25:53.600 --> 01:25:58.159
Yeah, am I wrong? I
feel like I'm right? No, you

1066
01:25:58.199 --> 01:26:00.680
are. I just think of like, since there's like five of them,

1067
01:26:00.720 --> 01:26:04.279
so I'm just like kind of like, you know, older people just being

1068
01:26:04.319 --> 01:26:09.560
like, get off my lawn,
kids, those are my ghosts, you

1069
01:26:09.760 --> 01:26:17.600
goddamned sons of bitches. Exactly in
Turkish when the electric power supply bypassed Lubby

1070
01:26:17.720 --> 01:26:24.319
decades ago, villagers started moving to
nearby plateaus and slowly abandoning the area did

1071
01:26:24.640 --> 01:26:30.560
give them electricity. The village now
looks like a ghost town, with crumbling

1072
01:26:30.640 --> 01:26:35.359
village buildings and few signs of life. Yeah, it says the electric power

1073
01:26:35.359 --> 01:26:41.920
supply bypassed them. That's terrible.
Swatin On, a full time traveler,

1074
01:26:41.960 --> 01:26:46.840
discussed his experiences in the quote ghost
town quote after having a conversation with someone

1075
01:26:46.880 --> 01:26:51.439
living in the village called mister Macnet. Yeah, that's Mahanet. I like

1076
01:26:51.520 --> 01:26:57.800
how I can't get through a frigging
story about the United Kingdom These like Dorsha

1077
01:26:57.840 --> 01:27:01.199
tire watch. I cannot survive it. But you just give me Costa Rica,

1078
01:27:01.279 --> 01:27:06.279
give me turkey. I'm fine,
Yeah Mechamet. He said. Over

1079
01:27:06.319 --> 01:27:11.560
two hundred people lived there at one
time. Nan said the migration started in

1080
01:27:11.600 --> 01:27:15.840
the first half of the nineteen eighties. People mostly settled in cam Plateau,

1081
01:27:15.239 --> 01:27:20.399
which is seven kilometers away and had
electricity. Yeah, they don't have electricity.

1082
01:27:24.359 --> 01:27:29.960
Oh, I gotta show you this
picture of the village. It's pretty

1083
01:27:30.000 --> 01:27:33.279
oh yeah, but it does look
kind of spooky in it's in a way.

1084
01:27:33.760 --> 01:27:38.840
Yeah, at night, I would
be uneasy. It's it's got rolling

1085
01:27:38.880 --> 01:27:42.920
mountains in the background, and then
just nothing but disheveled houses and there's only

1086
01:27:42.960 --> 01:27:47.920
two colors, dark green and dark
orange, and that's about it. Yeah,

1087
01:27:47.960 --> 01:27:50.520
but it is beautiful and blue in
the sky. It is pretty beautiful

1088
01:27:50.520 --> 01:27:55.600
though. It probably would be actually
really nice at night because because you don't

1089
01:27:55.600 --> 01:27:59.399
have any light pollutions, so you
probably see like lots of stars and you

1090
01:27:59.439 --> 01:28:04.520
won't see the houses and disrepair and
the total depression. I mean, yeah,

1091
01:28:04.640 --> 01:28:12.159
night would be a win. When
asked about the village's popularity with ghost

1092
01:28:12.279 --> 01:28:19.319
hunters, Nan said, sorry,
I lost my trap my place. Why

1093
01:28:19.359 --> 01:28:24.720
did I do that? Nan said, personally, I have not witnessed any

1094
01:28:24.720 --> 01:28:28.439
paranormal events in the village. The
reason for such interest is due to the

1095
01:28:28.479 --> 01:28:32.680
crumbling buildings, which have become decrepit
and neglected over time. Sometimes old rocks

1096
01:28:32.720 --> 01:28:38.640
crumble and fall while people are visiting. Oh yeah, I mean they do

1097
01:28:38.680 --> 01:28:41.720
that. It's just like an awful
place to be, is what I'm the

1098
01:28:41.800 --> 01:28:45.439
note I'm getting. He said that
the Ministry of Culture and Tourism took action

1099
01:28:45.520 --> 01:28:50.680
to preserve the village's historical structures and
architecture. Quote. Due to Lubby's popularity,

1100
01:28:50.760 --> 01:28:57.000
people put their homes up for sale
at high prices and unfortunately found buyers.

1101
01:29:00.960 --> 01:29:03.840
This led to a change in the
village and caused it to lose its

1102
01:29:03.880 --> 01:29:08.760
current look. That is why I
agree with the Ministry of Tourism and support

1103
01:29:08.800 --> 01:29:14.600
the move to protect it. Unfortunately, people can sell their homes for good

1104
01:29:14.640 --> 01:29:18.199
prices. You guys don't sound like
you're in you're looking out for anybody but

1105
01:29:18.239 --> 01:29:24.319
yourself. Yeah really, not even
yourself. Honestly, don't like, ohoh

1106
01:29:24.359 --> 01:29:27.840
no, we just want everything to
crumble, including our own homes. Let's

1107
01:29:27.880 --> 01:29:30.039
let's be real. You know who
they're looking out for the ghosts that they're

1108
01:29:30.119 --> 01:29:35.279
claiming aren't here, which now I'm
really starting to think they're ghosts. Yeah,

1109
01:29:35.359 --> 01:29:45.159
yeah, yeah, ghosts. He
said. The Ministry of Culture and

1110
01:29:45.199 --> 01:29:53.119
Tourism took action to preserve the village's
historical structures and architecture. I already read

1111
01:29:53.119 --> 01:29:57.720
that. Sorry, I got my
brain doesn't work anymore, and Non is

1112
01:29:57.760 --> 01:30:00.640
embarrassed about the amount of graffiti in
the build and feels it will worsen over

1113
01:30:00.680 --> 01:30:08.239
time unless the authorities take control.
I don't know what's going on here.

1114
01:30:08.359 --> 01:30:12.359
This is like, oh, I
don't want the talent to fall apart.

1115
01:30:12.439 --> 01:30:15.199
And you know, have vandals.
But I also don't want people to sell

1116
01:30:15.239 --> 01:30:17.199
their houses and move in and things
are going to be good, like but

1117
01:30:17.600 --> 01:30:23.079
also like, did they ever give
them electricity on the grid? I don't

1118
01:30:23.119 --> 01:30:26.039
think so. I don't think so
either. But you think that, like

1119
01:30:26.199 --> 01:30:28.880
if a lot of people started moving
in, they probably would, right,

1120
01:30:28.920 --> 01:30:33.479
Yeah, So why wouldn't they?
I don't know why didn't they win Originally?

1121
01:30:33.680 --> 01:30:36.800
I don't I get I could get
like not doing it. In the

1122
01:30:36.880 --> 01:30:41.439
nineteen eighties and nineteen nineties it was
a very rough time for places like Turkey,

1123
01:30:41.760 --> 01:30:45.079
Okay, but now yeah, like, look, I like, get

1124
01:30:45.119 --> 01:30:48.920
some fence posts, get some extension
cord. Let's make this happen. Okay,

1125
01:30:48.800 --> 01:30:56.479
yeah, yeah, do it yourself, don't villa? Hey all,

1126
01:30:56.560 --> 01:30:59.800
I if there's one thing I've learned
in life, it's that electrical stuff is

1127
01:31:00.159 --> 01:31:05.680
very easy and especially safe. Okay. Villagers are also uncomfortable with the area's

1128
01:31:05.720 --> 01:31:11.680
alleged paranormal activity and believe it could
harm its tourist appeal. They do not

1129
01:31:11.840 --> 01:31:15.560
want to be associated with such elements. Wait it could what is this article?

1130
01:31:16.560 --> 01:31:19.680
Are you getting this that it's like
too many people are coming here.

1131
01:31:19.720 --> 01:31:23.239
We're afraid it'll make people not want
to come here. What the hell are

1132
01:31:23.239 --> 01:31:27.399
you talking about. They need to
lean into it. They need to like

1133
01:31:27.800 --> 01:31:30.520
they need to like build a Masonic
temple overnight and then act like they didn't

1134
01:31:30.520 --> 01:31:34.800
know who did it. The only
place in the world where a Masonic temple

1135
01:31:35.000 --> 01:31:40.319
built itself overnight and no one knows
how, Like I should be the mayor

1136
01:31:40.479 --> 01:31:43.800
of this place. I would make
it. I would make that place so

1137
01:31:44.039 --> 01:31:47.359
maggoty with ghost hunters. I would. I would. I mean, because

1138
01:31:47.359 --> 01:31:49.880
like, since we're in Turkey,
I would like hire some Armenian people to

1139
01:31:49.960 --> 01:31:54.079
like kidnap and kill one of them
that way, Like it'd be like,

1140
01:31:54.079 --> 01:31:56.960
hey, just so you know,
per capita, one out of every three

1141
01:31:57.000 --> 01:32:00.479
hundred ghost hunters the visits never seen
again, and everyone would come. It

1142
01:32:00.520 --> 01:32:10.039
would be so crowded. I'm so
good at ideas you are. This is

1143
01:32:10.039 --> 01:32:12.439
almost as good as that time we
came up with the idea of putting a

1144
01:32:12.479 --> 01:32:17.239
clown statue on the abandoned road in
Centralia and then stuffing it with meat so

1145
01:32:17.359 --> 01:32:21.439
it'll be covered in flies and smell
bad. It was such a good idea.

1146
01:32:21.920 --> 01:32:27.000
That was a good idea. But
this is so this is what confuses

1147
01:32:27.000 --> 01:32:29.359
me. It says, due to
lobby's popularity, people with their homes up

1148
01:32:29.399 --> 01:32:31.319
for sale. But then it says
villagers are uncomfortable, they don't want to

1149
01:32:31.319 --> 01:32:35.760
be associated with such elements. They're
worried it'll affect tourism. They're they're worried

1150
01:32:35.760 --> 01:32:41.520
about the opposite things. So basically, what's happening here is people are just

1151
01:32:41.880 --> 01:32:45.880
angry about stuff, you know,
Like it's just whatever is upsetting. It

1152
01:32:45.880 --> 01:32:48.319
doesn't matter which way it goes.
It just sucks. I don't want to

1153
01:32:48.399 --> 01:32:56.119
hear this crap. TikTok. How
oh, but hold on. However,

1154
01:32:56.319 --> 01:33:00.520
there is also a group who believe
more visitors will come given the own's new

1155
01:33:00.560 --> 01:33:06.079
reputation setting on. Another concern is
that visitors are filming unflattering content about Lovey.

1156
01:33:08.159 --> 01:33:12.199
If you like Loveby so much,
get it electricity, Like, if

1157
01:33:12.239 --> 01:33:15.600
you like Loveby so much, the
problem isn't these people visiting? I'm sorry,

1158
01:33:15.880 --> 01:33:20.079
yeah yeah, And if they don't
want electricity, they're like, no,

1159
01:33:19.880 --> 01:33:23.520
no, no, we live that
life on purpose. That's fine,

1160
01:33:23.720 --> 01:33:27.039
you know, we live life the
old way. Don't complain that, like

1161
01:33:27.720 --> 01:33:29.840
things aren't the way you want them
to be. Of course, it's going

1162
01:33:29.880 --> 01:33:32.520
to be a weird place if it
lacks like it's a place that time forgot

1163
01:33:33.159 --> 01:33:39.560
right, Yeah, like crazy.
I just don't. I just don't understand

1164
01:33:39.560 --> 01:33:42.680
what these people want. They're like, we don't want people coming here and

1165
01:33:42.720 --> 01:33:45.319
messing around because we're afraid it will
make people not want to come here.

1166
01:33:45.279 --> 01:33:50.479
Yeah, I don't. I don't
know. I think they should install like

1167
01:33:51.199 --> 01:33:57.159
and like a fountain that's like Old
Faithful but it sprays blood every twelve hours.

1168
01:33:57.399 --> 01:34:00.840
Oh, I should be there.
No, So Turkey the country,

1169
01:34:00.920 --> 01:34:03.640
not the food. Although Turkey the
food, I'll talk to you later,

1170
01:34:03.760 --> 01:34:06.840
but Turkey the country. Hear me
out. That's why I'm right on the

1171
01:34:06.880 --> 01:34:11.560
microphone. I really want you to
hear this. I am available to be

1172
01:34:11.640 --> 01:34:17.720
your mayor. My only request is
refer to me as your king. Okay,

1173
01:34:17.760 --> 01:34:21.920
So anyway, I just want to
get that out quote. I am

1174
01:34:23.000 --> 01:34:25.960
ninety three years old. I have
been living in this village for as long

1175
01:34:26.000 --> 01:34:30.199
as I can remember, ali Os
Turk told Turkish News Agency. I h

1176
01:34:30.279 --> 01:34:32.560
a quote. In the past,
there were many people in this village,

1177
01:34:32.600 --> 01:34:35.960
but now there are only a few
left. I love Lubby so much.

1178
01:34:36.279 --> 01:34:42.840
This is my homeland. I can't
live anywhere else. Okay, so cool.

1179
01:34:43.079 --> 01:34:46.560
So so oh it said so I
don't want any goddamn tiktoker's getting clout.

1180
01:34:47.920 --> 01:34:57.640
Also it also says yeat what oh
and then and then ali Os Turk

1181
01:34:57.800 --> 01:35:01.239
ended the statement by saying simply and
with much, with a solemn and sorrowful

1182
01:35:01.279 --> 01:35:09.560
tone. No, cap, I
might have made that one up. This

1183
01:35:09.640 --> 01:35:12.600
is so weird. I thought that
when I read that. When I read

1184
01:35:12.640 --> 01:35:15.279
the headline, I thought that like
ghost hunters were coming there and just like

1185
01:35:15.279 --> 01:35:17.840
wrecking the place, like being rude, like eating all the food at the

1186
01:35:17.880 --> 01:35:20.720
grocery store, taking up all the
No. Seriously, though, like I

1187
01:35:20.760 --> 01:35:24.920
thought that they were just like wrecking
the place. It sounds like they're just

1188
01:35:24.960 --> 01:35:28.720
going to appreciate a place that looks
creepy because nobody wants to fix it up,

1189
01:35:28.760 --> 01:35:30.159
because they just like it the way
it is. Yeah, but they

1190
01:35:30.159 --> 01:35:33.640
don't like it's the way it is
either, Yeah, apparently not, because

1191
01:35:33.640 --> 01:35:38.279
they're afraid if too many people come
there, then nobody will come there any

1192
01:35:38.279 --> 01:35:45.359
I can't even I can't even,
yeah, I can't even chell Okay,

1193
01:35:45.960 --> 01:35:50.319
okay, so let's end on.
Let's end our spooky news on something a

1194
01:35:50.319 --> 01:35:55.560
little bit humorous. Okay, okay, and not. I wish this was

1195
01:35:55.560 --> 01:35:57.600
a story about a skeleton. After
I said that, I was like,

1196
01:35:57.640 --> 01:36:00.119
oh, that would have been a
perfect pun. It's not. This one's

1197
01:36:00.159 --> 01:36:04.119
something you and I have looked into
before in the past. From Newsweek.

1198
01:36:04.560 --> 01:36:11.039
Not haunted vintage chair goes for sale
and then goes viral for hilarious advertising.

1199
01:36:11.760 --> 01:36:16.159
I love when people advertise haunted items
and stuff, like, I think that's

1200
01:36:16.239 --> 01:36:19.520
hilarious. Remember when we used to
go on eBay and look up haunted things

1201
01:36:19.600 --> 01:36:26.039
and read about them. Yeah,
I remember, yeah, yeah, and

1202
01:36:26.159 --> 01:36:31.760
like haunted boxes and stuff. Okay. So a woman went viral on Twitter

1203
01:36:31.880 --> 01:36:36.279
for sharing a photo of a vintage
chair in England that was being advertised as

1204
01:36:36.760 --> 01:36:41.920
not haunted. Check out the chair, I should cheat right there. It

1205
01:36:42.000 --> 01:36:46.960
says definitely, Oh my god.
I liked that. It also looks just

1206
01:36:47.079 --> 01:36:49.720
like the things around it, like
it's clearly a part of a set.

1207
01:36:49.760 --> 01:36:54.680
But I guess that's the one that's
not haunted. Yeah. The woman named

1208
01:36:54.720 --> 01:36:59.399
Heather Cohen posted a photo of the
haunted chair on Twitter, where it received

1209
01:36:59.439 --> 01:37:03.239
one point two million likes, one
hundred and sixteen thousand retweets, and five

1210
01:37:03.399 --> 01:37:11.239
thousand quote tweets since Wednesday afternoon.
The viral photo showed a vintage wingback chair

1211
01:37:11.439 --> 01:37:15.359
that had aside sign reading definitely not
haunted on it with an exclamation point.

1212
01:37:15.399 --> 01:37:21.079
So they mean business. Yeah,
I'm so confused. I like that.

1213
01:37:21.119 --> 01:37:26.239
Her caption is that's definitely something a
haunted chair would say. Yeah. A

1214
01:37:26.319 --> 01:37:29.640
study published by website you go,
oh, look at this. It says

1215
01:37:29.640 --> 01:37:33.680
two and five Americans believe in ghosts. We just talked about that, Newsweek.

1216
01:37:33.800 --> 01:37:40.479
You're getting You're getting lazy, Cohen
said. The chair is for sale

1217
01:37:40.560 --> 01:37:45.600
at Oxfam, an organization that runs
various stores around the world. In Liverpool,

1218
01:37:45.600 --> 01:37:50.199
England, Okay, Oxfam shops sell
secondhand items such as clothes and furniture,

1219
01:37:50.199 --> 01:37:55.720
as well as books and music.
Sadie Cherney, a franchise owner with

1220
01:37:55.760 --> 01:38:00.359
three resale boutiques in South Carolina,
told Newsweek that while it is a popular

1221
01:38:00.399 --> 01:38:06.039
way to shop, buyers should be
cautious about resale items and thrifting. Why

1222
01:38:06.079 --> 01:38:13.880
are you agreeing, I want to
know, Oh, because I don't.

1223
01:38:13.880 --> 01:38:16.920
You don't buy upholstered stuff that's not
new. Oh, because you don't want

1224
01:38:16.960 --> 01:38:20.359
it to have like stuff in it, bedbugs in it. I mean that

1225
01:38:20.399 --> 01:38:27.640
would be stuff. Yes. Yeah. Cherney recommended that individuals search for items

1226
01:38:27.680 --> 01:38:32.039
that still have tags and to make
sure that all zippers are functional. She

1227
01:38:32.159 --> 01:38:36.560
added that it is important to do
research about return policies since policies vary on

1228
01:38:36.600 --> 01:38:42.920
the store. Experts also recommend making
sure the buttons are intact, checking for

1229
01:38:43.000 --> 01:38:46.560
tears or stains, and washing clothes
after buying them to ensure they are sanitary.

1230
01:38:47.520 --> 01:38:50.560
Great, just wash that share after
you buy it. Got it.

1231
01:38:51.800 --> 01:38:55.159
So I was hanging out with a
friend the other day and we went thrifting

1232
01:38:56.119 --> 01:38:59.000
and I had to explain to her
that they do not wash the clothes.

1233
01:39:00.439 --> 01:39:04.039
Oh, because why would you think
they wash the clothes? Well, what

1234
01:39:04.359 --> 01:39:08.720
like the thrift store? Yeah,
why would they? How would they do

1235
01:39:08.800 --> 01:39:11.039
that? That's what I said.
I was like, how would they?

1236
01:39:11.199 --> 01:39:13.199
Like? I asked her. I
was like, do you think there's like

1237
01:39:13.520 --> 01:39:15.800
an industrial washer and dryer in the
back room, because there's not. There's

1238
01:39:15.840 --> 01:39:19.199
just more old crap people gave away
for free. Yeah. No, I

1239
01:39:19.199 --> 01:39:25.640
mean hopefully the person who who like
gave it to the thrift store washed it.

1240
01:39:25.720 --> 01:39:29.199
But what even if they did,
it's gonna be musty, It's gonna

1241
01:39:29.199 --> 01:39:30.760
be you know how clothes get when
they sit for a really long time,

1242
01:39:31.039 --> 01:39:34.399
how anything like towels, clothes,
whatever, sits, they just get kind

1243
01:39:34.399 --> 01:39:40.560
of musty. They do sometimes.
I mean it's not they're not so musty

1244
01:39:40.640 --> 01:39:44.560
that it's disgusting. It's just like, like I had a bunch of towels.

1245
01:39:44.920 --> 01:39:50.000
I was reorganizing my bathroom, right
and I had a bunch of towels,

1246
01:39:50.000 --> 01:39:54.199
like hand towels and stuff that I
just never use, that are in

1247
01:39:54.239 --> 01:39:59.479
your bathroom, that are in the
cabinet in my bathay, and they'd probably

1248
01:39:59.479 --> 01:40:00.600
sat there for a year and a
half or two years. So when I

1249
01:40:00.640 --> 01:40:03.800
took them out, they smelled a
little musty. So I ran them through

1250
01:40:03.800 --> 01:40:06.760
the washing machine, you know,
just just freshen them up. Okay,

1251
01:40:06.760 --> 01:40:10.439
because I was going to ask you
about the humidity in your house if your

1252
01:40:10.479 --> 01:40:14.960
towels are smelling musty, because mine
don't. But it's just that you're keeping

1253
01:40:15.000 --> 01:40:17.039
them in your bathroom, so that's
I understand, and they're sitting for a

1254
01:40:17.239 --> 01:40:21.640
really long time. Like yeah,
basically I bought a bunch of hand towels

1255
01:40:21.640 --> 01:40:26.479
in case I needed them, but
I didn't have hand towels for like years,

1256
01:40:27.279 --> 01:40:30.520
so they don't get a lot of
attention. Oh, I know,

1257
01:40:30.600 --> 01:40:34.960
I feel bad. Yeah. More
than four thousand, seven hundred users comments

1258
01:40:34.960 --> 01:40:39.880
in Cohen's tweet, many commenting on
the humor of the sign and saying that

1259
01:40:39.880 --> 01:40:44.079
they wanted to purchase the chair.
Quote this is the plot of every Goosebumps

1260
01:40:44.079 --> 01:40:46.560
book. Another user tweeted, quote, I remember a horror movie when I

1261
01:40:46.640 --> 01:40:51.039
was younger involving a chair like that
eating people. Another replied, no,

1262
01:40:51.039 --> 01:40:58.000
no, no, it was a
bed, deathbed, the bed that eats

1263
01:40:58.079 --> 01:41:01.159
people. That was literally a movie. Wow, it's about a bed that

1264
01:41:01.239 --> 01:41:05.119
eats people. It's called deathbed,
the bed that eats people. That's what

1265
01:41:05.199 --> 01:41:09.359
they're thinking of, unless there's a
If there is, If I'm mistaken,

1266
01:41:09.399 --> 01:41:13.159
email us at Weekly Spooky at gmail
dot com and correct me if there is

1267
01:41:13.199 --> 01:41:17.159
a story about a movie about a
chair eating people. But I think you're

1268
01:41:17.159 --> 01:41:21.119
thinking of deathbed, the bed that
eats people. Another said she'd had her

1269
01:41:21.159 --> 01:41:25.720
own running with a haunted chair,
sharing quote, I bought a chair once

1270
01:41:26.000 --> 01:41:28.680
at a thrift store, and I
thought to myself, after a few things

1271
01:41:28.720 --> 01:41:32.640
happened in the room it was in, I thought it to myself, after

1272
01:41:32.680 --> 01:41:35.239
a few things happened in the room
it was in, but I had an

1273
01:41:35.319 --> 01:41:39.800
uncle come over and he said,
hey, something ain't right about that chair.

1274
01:41:40.119 --> 01:41:42.520
That's when I said, okay,
it's going in the dumpster. True

1275
01:41:42.560 --> 01:41:46.039
story. That's where I got a
chair. And then I wondered, is

1276
01:41:46.039 --> 01:41:48.039
that haunted? And my uncle was
like, man, I like the chair,

1277
01:41:48.039 --> 01:41:50.640
and I was like, all right, in the trash it goes yeah.

1278
01:41:51.039 --> 01:41:56.000
Quote my son and his partner bought
an old church in Scotland. They

1279
01:41:56.000 --> 01:41:59.840
are deaf looking for haunted furniture.
It's a thing. One Twitter user reply,

1280
01:42:00.680 --> 01:42:03.439
quote, beautiful wingback chairs, but
they are way over there, and

1281
01:42:03.520 --> 01:42:06.760
I'm all the way up in Tennessee, so I think I'll pass on those.

1282
01:42:06.840 --> 01:42:11.399
Another newser wrote quote, I'd love
it, but it's a bit far

1283
01:42:11.479 --> 01:42:15.479
away to come from Germany. Just
drive, Yeah, it's not that far.

1284
01:42:15.800 --> 01:42:18.439
Yeah. Newsweek reached out to Heather
Cohen for comment. This is not

1285
01:42:18.520 --> 01:42:23.279
the first case of a person going
viral for claiming an object is haunted.

1286
01:42:23.479 --> 01:42:27.319
One woman recently went viral for claiming
her haunted doll collection scared off her neighbors.

1287
01:42:27.560 --> 01:42:30.000
Ghost Hunters in England were called out
to investigate a pet shop after the

1288
01:42:30.000 --> 01:42:33.439
owners said they believed there were ghosts
there. Was a ghost inside. Another

1289
01:42:33.479 --> 01:42:38.079
woman went viral and TikTok after she
caught an alleged ghost reflection in a mirror

1290
01:42:38.239 --> 01:42:43.600
in her home. I'm pretty sure
we covered all of those stories. Also,

1291
01:42:43.720 --> 01:42:45.359
great reporting. Newsweek it said that
they reached out for Heather Cohen for

1292
01:42:45.399 --> 01:42:48.439
comment, but they didn't mention that
she didn't reply. They just said that

1293
01:42:48.520 --> 01:42:55.760
and then there's nothing else. Oh
good times. Yay. Yeah, it

1294
01:42:55.800 --> 01:42:58.920
literally just says Newsweek reach out to
Heather Cohen for comment and that's it.

1295
01:42:59.560 --> 01:43:04.720
Well, maybe they thought that she'd
still get back to them. It's so

1296
01:43:04.840 --> 01:43:13.079
good. Well that all being said, speaking of not haunted chairs, what's

1297
01:43:13.119 --> 01:43:20.840
the scariest place you've ever been in? Like? What what way scary?

1298
01:43:21.560 --> 01:43:29.960
Just in general, what's the scariest
place you've ever been? I don't know,

1299
01:43:30.479 --> 01:43:39.439
Uh, maybe that that that warehouse
in Philly that isn't a warehouse anymore.

1300
01:43:39.600 --> 01:43:43.680
It's it's condos. But I went
in it when it was a vacant,

1301
01:43:43.720 --> 01:43:47.640
abandoned warehouse and it was scary because
we ran into someone in the hall

1302
01:43:48.960 --> 01:43:55.039
who probably, yes, but he
probably lived there because I could tell like

1303
01:43:55.079 --> 01:43:58.720
people were squatting in there, and
we we both like ran into each other

1304
01:43:58.720 --> 01:44:01.680
and like jumped and like went on
with our What. Yeah, so that

1305
01:44:01.760 --> 01:44:05.880
was pretty scary. That sounds scary. Yeah you do. You do do

1306
01:44:05.960 --> 01:44:11.079
a lot of urban exploration, don't
you. Not so much anymore, But

1307
01:44:11.119 --> 01:44:15.039
when you were young and dumb and
people wanted to do with me, Oh,

1308
01:44:15.079 --> 01:44:18.000
I wouldn't do it. Actually,
I get scared of eurban exploration and

1309
01:44:18.119 --> 01:44:21.239
you need to come visit so you
and Rachel can go on urban exploration.

1310
01:44:21.319 --> 01:44:25.119
Rachel is literally like she'll literally be
driving down the road and be like,

1311
01:44:25.159 --> 01:44:27.760
look at that factory. It's all
decrepit. I'm gonna break in, Like

1312
01:44:27.840 --> 01:44:31.640
she's just I'm not I wish I
was being funny, but seriously, police,

1313
01:44:32.239 --> 01:44:35.399
she's a criminal. No, but
that's no. She's really liked that

1314
01:44:35.439 --> 01:44:40.399
though. She's just like I'm gonna
go in there. Yeah yeah, she's

1315
01:44:40.439 --> 01:44:45.560
not well so, but that all
being said, we are going to check

1316
01:44:45.640 --> 01:44:50.159
out the Mirror dot co dot UK's
list of the most terrifying places on Earth

1317
01:44:50.720 --> 01:45:08.399
right after these messages The scariest places
on Earth. There are a lot of

1318
01:45:08.399 --> 01:45:11.920
them. I would assume a lot
of places that are weird, creepy,

1319
01:45:12.039 --> 01:45:16.720
eerie, unexplained, etcetera, etcetera. What do you think, I mean,

1320
01:45:17.319 --> 01:45:20.760
if there are a lot of them, are they that scary? Yeah?

1321
01:45:20.840 --> 01:45:25.640
Yes? Oh? I mean like
what are you what's What's something you're

1322
01:45:25.640 --> 01:45:38.800
afraid of? But getting sick the
future? Bed bugs? Sure? So

1323
01:45:39.000 --> 01:45:42.399
if there were bed bugs everywhere,
would you feel safer? Would you feel

1324
01:45:42.439 --> 01:45:47.399
less afraid? Bullet? You're right? Okay, fine, I win.

1325
01:45:48.079 --> 01:45:51.960
So we're looking at this. So
usually when we have a topic, we

1326
01:45:53.159 --> 01:45:57.439
use one of the most infallible sources
of information ever known to mankind, Wikipedia,

1327
01:45:57.640 --> 01:46:02.279
But today we're gonna use mirror dot
Code at UK to help us go

1328
01:46:02.319 --> 01:46:05.520
into this deep dive. We're going
to talk about the most terrifying places on

1329
01:46:05.560 --> 01:46:12.600
Earth, which includes the gates of
Hell and an abandoned hospital. Oh wow,

1330
01:46:12.640 --> 01:46:15.039
do you not what you don't think
the gates of Hell are are scary?

1331
01:46:15.239 --> 01:46:20.880
Maybe? Well, let's dive in
and chell one to ten. You're

1332
01:46:20.920 --> 01:46:26.119
going to be raiding these scary places. Now what I want here is this

1333
01:46:26.199 --> 01:46:30.199
is going to be synergetic. If
you have questions, I will pull up

1334
01:46:30.239 --> 01:46:33.600
research. So like after I read
the article part, if you're like,

1335
01:46:33.920 --> 01:46:36.079
wait, but where is it?
Or weight? But is there anything else?

1336
01:46:36.279 --> 01:46:40.840
You just say the word in all
Wikipedia or something. So we're going

1337
01:46:40.880 --> 01:46:45.680
to dive in because I want you
to accurately grade these. Okay, okay,

1338
01:46:45.880 --> 01:46:49.119
searching for something a little different to
do this weekend than look no further.

1339
01:46:49.920 --> 01:46:54.159
There are some chilling places to visit
around the world if you fancy jumping

1340
01:46:54.159 --> 01:46:57.960
on a plane, and many are
very likely to give you nightmares. From

1341
01:46:57.960 --> 01:47:01.199
the so called Gates of Hell to
an island which locals say still chimes with

1342
01:47:01.279 --> 01:47:06.960
the screams of one hundred and sixty
thousand dead plague victims, there's something for

1343
01:47:08.000 --> 01:47:13.279
everyone. I love Sam Elliott Gibbs
wrote this. I love your tact on

1344
01:47:13.319 --> 01:47:18.399
this. If you don't fancy that
creepy abandoned hospital that once treated Adolf Hitler

1345
01:47:18.439 --> 01:47:23.600
could be a mussee all right?
Or how about an island stacked full of

1346
01:47:23.680 --> 01:47:28.720
freakish mutilated dolls, and yeah,
I know about that one. If you're

1347
01:47:28.720 --> 01:47:32.199
feeling a little ghoulish or are partial
to some tombs and graves, there's plenty

1348
01:47:32.239 --> 01:47:34.960
to pick from. Or if you
prefer to stay at home. After all,

1349
01:47:35.239 --> 01:47:40.560
The Mirror has prepared the perfect travel
guide so you don't have to move

1350
01:47:40.600 --> 01:47:45.159
a muscle. So this first one
is the Gates of Hell and I'm guessing

1351
01:47:45.199 --> 01:47:49.239
you're familiar with it. I think
that there's actually several places called that.

1352
01:47:49.399 --> 01:47:54.520
So I don't know the gates of
hell right here, it's it's a big

1353
01:47:54.720 --> 01:47:59.039
hole in the earth full of fire. Oh, I don't know that one.

1354
01:47:59.199 --> 01:48:04.720
Maybe that it's called the Darvaza sinkhole
in Turkmenistan, Central Asia. It

1355
01:48:04.720 --> 01:48:11.319
has been burning since nineteen seventy one. When it's when it's thoughts Soviets ignited

1356
01:48:11.359 --> 01:48:15.359
it. Okay, what was that? What was that? You made a

1357
01:48:15.439 --> 01:48:17.680
reaction? Was that? I feel
I feel like I already know about a

1358
01:48:17.680 --> 01:48:21.640
place that's been burning since like the
seventies. Well, for the records,

1359
01:48:21.640 --> 01:48:27.319
Centralia does not look as bonkers as
that image right there. Yeah, yeah,

1360
01:48:27.479 --> 01:48:30.880
that's pretty crazy looking. It's a
giant crater full of fire. Yeah

1361
01:48:31.760 --> 01:48:38.399
uh, but get your visit enson. The fiery crater which has been belching

1362
01:48:38.399 --> 01:48:41.439
out methane for more than fifty years. Oak, So it's methane. This

1363
01:48:41.479 --> 01:48:45.359
isn't coal. It's methane for more
than fifty years. May soon finally be

1364
01:48:45.439 --> 01:48:50.199
closed as its country's leader ordered it
to be extinguished. Boo, what a

1365
01:48:50.359 --> 01:48:56.600
kill joy they they haven't tried before. I guess not they'll just be like,

1366
01:48:56.680 --> 01:49:00.920
hey, is what it is,
isn't that? It's the turkmenis and

1367
01:49:00.000 --> 01:49:03.520
motto it is what it is.
Yeah, if it ain't broke, don't

1368
01:49:03.520 --> 01:49:08.840
fix it. That's like on their
flag with a shrugging emoji. It's said

1369
01:49:08.840 --> 01:49:13.479
the gas emitted from the landmark is
causing untold damage to locals, health and

1370
01:49:13.720 --> 01:49:17.640
the environment. I would think that
the fire burning it up would be good

1371
01:49:17.680 --> 01:49:21.800
for stopping the gas emissions, but
I don't know a lot about anything.

1372
01:49:25.720 --> 01:49:29.279
Fair enough. Well dubbed the Gates
of Hell or the Mouth of Hell,

1373
01:49:29.520 --> 01:49:32.840
the blazing pit can be seen from
miles around and has become a major tourist

1374
01:49:32.840 --> 01:49:40.039
attraction in recent years. But those
who like a terrifying trip should get their

1375
01:49:40.039 --> 01:49:47.680
skates on. Gurbanguli burd Him Oh
my God. Him Muhammadu has made orders

1376
01:49:47.720 --> 01:49:51.680
for his government to hunt down experts
to help close the sinkhole, located in

1377
01:49:51.720 --> 01:49:56.600
the Karakum Desert around one hundred and
sixty miles north of the country's capital,

1378
01:49:56.800 --> 01:50:00.840
Ashgabat. The two hundred and thirty
foot wide and seven and the foot deep

1379
01:50:00.840 --> 01:50:04.920
sinkhole is wreaking havoc on public health
with its ceaseless methane emissions. According to

1380
01:50:05.000 --> 01:50:11.680
the leader, couldn't they capture the
methane and use it. That has to

1381
01:50:11.680 --> 01:50:15.000
be an option, right, I
mean maybe they probably have to put it

1382
01:50:15.000 --> 01:50:17.600
out first though. Oh, I
mean yeah, I mean you're not wrong

1383
01:50:17.600 --> 01:50:25.119
there. The president had previously tried
unsuccessfully to close it back in twenty and

1384
01:50:25.239 --> 01:50:29.239
ten, and in twenty thirteen he
declared the surrounding area a natural reserve,

1385
01:50:29.439 --> 01:50:31.600
which has since become a tourist trap. Why is it calling a trap?

1386
01:50:31.960 --> 01:50:39.239
Anyway? So what do you rate
the Gates of Hell and Turkmenistan? Still

1387
01:50:39.239 --> 01:50:44.800
with one to ten? How scary
it is? Is that as far as

1388
01:50:42.760 --> 01:50:48.720
the most terrifying places. So it's
a terrifying how terrifying? Terrifying? It

1389
01:50:48.760 --> 01:50:53.520
gets a zero? I think it's
really cool. You don't think it would

1390
01:50:53.520 --> 01:50:56.039
be. It would be terrifying to
stand in from of a giant flaming hole.

1391
01:50:56.479 --> 01:51:00.000
No, not unless somebody pushes me
inside it. I want to.

1392
01:51:00.079 --> 01:51:03.359
I want to stand in front of
a giant flaming hole in their earth so

1393
01:51:03.399 --> 01:51:10.039
you can finally feel warm for once, since you're cold blooded. Well here's

1394
01:51:10.079 --> 01:51:13.720
one that has always bothered me that
white people seem to think is just totally

1395
01:51:13.760 --> 01:51:20.760
fine. The Catacombs of Paris.
I'm assuming you're familiar with those. I

1396
01:51:20.920 --> 01:51:28.159
hate the catacombs, Yeah, I
don't. I don't. I don't like

1397
01:51:28.920 --> 01:51:33.800
the idea of human remains as decoration. I don't think that that's cool.

1398
01:51:34.319 --> 01:51:39.840
I don't think that that's a thing
I want to see or be near.

1399
01:51:40.279 --> 01:51:44.399
I don't think it's something to be
proud of that that it exists. I

1400
01:51:44.439 --> 01:51:51.640
think it's just the morbidity of the
Neanderthal like history we come from. I

1401
01:51:51.680 --> 01:51:56.560
hate it. I have always hated
it. Yeah, I mean, I

1402
01:51:56.560 --> 01:52:02.319
don't know if I want to bring
Neanderthals into it. Neanderthals balls, But

1403
01:52:02.439 --> 01:52:05.399
I mean I don't disagree, and
I feel that way about but I feel

1404
01:52:05.439 --> 01:52:10.319
that way about any sort of like
we take this thing, this dead thing,

1405
01:52:10.359 --> 01:52:14.560
and we display it pretty much.
Sure, so not just people,

1406
01:52:15.199 --> 01:52:17.000
well, no, I mean I
get that, but it's the idea that

1407
01:52:17.000 --> 01:52:20.199
this is supposed to be a mass
grave. But like they stacked the skulls

1408
01:52:20.239 --> 01:52:25.239
altogether and stack the bones all together. It's morbid as fuck and it's not

1409
01:52:25.319 --> 01:52:30.520
okay. Yeah, I don't like
it. Yeah. Located just twenty meters

1410
01:52:30.600 --> 01:52:36.560
underground, this ostuary contains the remains
of several million Parisians. The site was

1411
01:52:36.600 --> 01:52:41.560
created in the late eighteenth century when
Paris faced problems linked to the cemeteries,

1412
01:52:41.760 --> 01:52:45.520
so authorities chose to transfer the bodies
to a new underground site, including the

1413
01:52:45.560 --> 01:52:53.399
Saint Innocent Cemetery or the San Innocent
Cemetery whatever. Whatever. Tombs and graves

1414
01:52:53.399 --> 01:52:57.319
were emptied of their bones and transported
in the dead of night to avoid hostile

1415
01:52:57.359 --> 01:53:01.279
reactions from the Parisian population and the
church. The site was consecrated in seventeen

1416
01:53:01.319 --> 01:53:08.199
eighty six and open to the public
by appointment in eighteen o nine. Now

1417
01:53:08.399 --> 01:53:13.119
everyone's welcome if you dare, and
there are around five hundred and fifty thousand

1418
01:53:13.159 --> 01:53:17.119
tourists who visit per year. In
the oshuary bones which have been loosely piled

1419
01:53:17.199 --> 01:53:23.520
or organized in walls, the facade
consists of rows of tibia and alternating with

1420
01:53:23.560 --> 01:53:29.560
skulls. I hate it. I
like they in the dead of night,

1421
01:53:29.640 --> 01:53:31.920
they moved a bunch of bodies without
the permissions of families or the church.

1422
01:53:32.640 --> 01:53:38.079
So so like I actually, I
know that the catacombs exist and whatever,

1423
01:53:38.119 --> 01:53:41.760
but I didn't. I don't really
know that much about it. And that's

1424
01:53:41.840 --> 01:53:47.399
just that, just sucks. Yeah, no, it really does. I'm

1425
01:53:47.439 --> 01:53:58.439
literally googling why are the French catacombs
When major public health problems tied to the

1426
01:53:58.439 --> 01:54:01.439
city, cemeteries led a decision to
transfer their contents to an underground site.

1427
01:54:01.880 --> 01:54:05.600
What kind of major health problems I
don't know. But that doesn't mean you

1428
01:54:05.680 --> 01:54:12.800
make frigging decorative art art out of
people's frigging family members and stuff their bodies

1429
01:54:13.079 --> 01:54:17.359
which were supposed to be left alone. Yeah, and maybe I'm being ridiculous,

1430
01:54:17.520 --> 01:54:23.039
you know, let me know.
But no, I'm pretty much with

1431
01:54:23.119 --> 01:54:29.039
you on this. I think that's
really messed up, you know. Yeah,

1432
01:54:29.079 --> 01:54:31.399
I'm not I'm not a fan.
So apparently fifty three million years ago

1433
01:54:32.039 --> 01:54:35.960
was the end of sedimentation. Paris
in the surrounding area was a vast and

1434
01:54:36.039 --> 01:54:40.640
swampy plain. Forty seven million years
ago, the sea covers the north of

1435
01:54:40.640 --> 01:54:44.680
France, which had been flattened by
erosion the start of the formation of lutation

1436
01:54:44.800 --> 01:54:47.720
banks. So the first century a
d. They are open pit quarries,

1437
01:54:47.960 --> 01:54:54.760
then underground quarries. King Louis signs
a decree to prohibit extracting material from underground

1438
01:54:54.840 --> 01:54:58.199
roads. Okay, so that's a
history of the underground spaces that eventually became

1439
01:54:58.239 --> 01:55:09.680
the Kentacombs. So let's see April
fourth, Wow, Louis the whatever creates

1440
01:55:09.720 --> 01:55:14.239
the Department of General Quarry Inspection,
which is in charge of protecting Parisian quarries.

1441
01:55:14.720 --> 01:55:18.439
In seventeen eighty they closed the Saint
Innocence Church or cemetery. April seventh,

1442
01:55:18.520 --> 01:55:24.479
seventeen eighty six the benediction and consecration
of the tomb Issare Quarries, which

1443
01:55:24.520 --> 01:55:29.760
became the municipal Oshuary known as the
Catacombs. So from seventeen eighty seven to

1444
01:55:29.880 --> 01:55:34.600
eighteen fourteen the transfer of bones from
the parochial cemeteries of Paris began. Then

1445
01:55:34.640 --> 01:55:40.800
they in eighteen o nine they opened
the oshuary to the public. Okay,

1446
01:55:41.199 --> 01:55:45.079
why did they make it a friggin
like like, why did they make it

1447
01:55:45.079 --> 01:55:49.399
look like something you did with popsicle
sticks? Okay, So so here's my

1448
01:55:49.479 --> 01:55:54.880
theory that I just made up.
I'm in. So they were trying to

1449
01:55:54.920 --> 01:55:59.399
transfer them as like full bodies and
stuff, but they dropped a bunch of

1450
01:55:59.439 --> 01:56:02.560
them and all the phones weren't everywhere, and they didn't know how to put

1451
01:56:02.560 --> 01:56:06.640
them back together or even whose bones
went to which person? So they were

1452
01:56:06.680 --> 01:56:11.680
like, what can we do to
save face? So they made art.

1453
01:56:14.119 --> 01:56:23.439
What I don't get is why not
just bury bodies the end? Why the

1454
01:56:24.279 --> 01:56:27.960
walls of bones so people can walk
through it? I just hate that.

1455
01:56:29.079 --> 01:56:40.000
Yeah, I don't know. So
around six million odds skeletons are in the

1456
01:56:40.000 --> 01:56:48.199
tunnels. Okay, it's really weird. Apparently they smell really bad too.

1457
01:56:48.760 --> 01:56:55.000
Why did they smell because they have
noses? Wait, what do you put?

1458
01:56:55.920 --> 01:57:01.319
It just has like a strong smell. Okay, I mean they're bones.

1459
01:57:01.359 --> 01:57:04.079
I wouldn't think that they'd smell.
But I don't really what a wine?

1460
01:57:04.119 --> 01:57:12.840
Now, I don't know anything.
I just searched. Why are the

1461
01:57:12.880 --> 01:57:15.800
French catacombs organized like that? Oh
my god? Yes, this is what

1462
01:57:15.880 --> 01:57:19.760
I thought. There were so many
bodies in Paris that they decided to organize

1463
01:57:19.760 --> 01:57:25.039
them in an artistic way to conserve
space and beautify it. This article says

1464
01:57:25.079 --> 01:57:29.279
it worked. I don't think it's
beautiful. I think it's disgusting. I

1465
01:57:29.319 --> 01:57:32.439
mean, I'm gonna say that,
I think it's kind of pretty, but

1466
01:57:32.600 --> 01:57:38.000
also I think it's really sad.
Yeah, so this is one of the

1467
01:57:38.000 --> 01:57:41.880
future. This might be one of
my hottest, most unpopular takes interesting.

1468
01:57:42.079 --> 01:57:45.520
I don't like the Catacombs of Paris. Okay, well, I mean I

1469
01:57:45.760 --> 01:57:48.159
just didn't really know about too much
about them until now. But I also

1470
01:57:48.279 --> 01:57:57.079
don't really like them now. So
that being said, how terrifying. Apparently

1471
01:57:57.119 --> 01:58:01.399
it smells not good, So maybe
like a four. Okay, four out

1472
01:58:01.439 --> 01:58:06.520
of ten, so yeah, a
little terrifying. Yeah, all right,

1473
01:58:06.520 --> 01:58:11.000
Well we're gonna move on to another
one. Then this is the Island of

1474
01:58:11.119 --> 01:58:16.880
Death. Oh morbid. Tourists flocked
to a tiny island of death, which

1475
01:58:16.920 --> 01:58:21.399
became a dumping ground for the disease
during the Bubonic plague. More than one

1476
01:58:21.479 --> 01:58:26.319
hundred and sixty thousand Italian people are
said to have died there, But instead

1477
01:58:26.319 --> 01:58:30.359
of it being placed being a place
of respect and reflection, the walls of

1478
01:58:30.399 --> 01:58:36.319
the innocent buildings are stained with ancient
buildings are stained with graffiti. Located less

1479
01:58:36.359 --> 01:58:44.439
than half a mile from the canals
of Venice, Pavigilia, Paviglia Island once

1480
01:58:44.520 --> 01:58:47.079
served as a quarantine zone for victims
and was also the site of an early

1481
01:58:47.119 --> 01:58:53.479
twentieth century asylum that was rumored to
carry out horrific medical experiments. Locals claim

1482
01:58:53.560 --> 01:58:57.439
to this day that they can hear
echoing chimes from the island, despite the

1483
01:58:57.479 --> 01:59:05.479
bell having been removed years ago.
Okay, it is illegal to visit Paviglia,

1484
01:59:06.279 --> 01:59:10.800
but you can see it from the
beaches of nearby Lido. In the

1485
01:59:10.840 --> 01:59:15.119
thirteen hundreds, the brutal Black Death
wiped out and estimated sixty percent of Europe's

1486
01:59:15.159 --> 01:59:19.560
population. Venice is home to several
islands with horrifying reputations, similar to Plague

1487
01:59:19.600 --> 01:59:26.840
Island. Lazaretto Nuovo is another haunting
island where the mythical Vampire of Venice was

1488
01:59:26.960 --> 01:59:33.800
rumored to operate. Okay, this
one's not really selling it to me.

1489
01:59:33.840 --> 01:59:39.520
There's barely any photos. Yeah,
I mean, I just feel it's just

1490
01:59:39.640 --> 01:59:44.199
sad. Sure, sad. Do
you want me to try and find a

1491
01:59:44.239 --> 01:59:47.600
couple pictures if you want to?
Sure? I mean I don't want to,

1492
01:59:47.720 --> 01:59:50.239
but I will. I mean,
no one else can see them though,

1493
01:59:50.560 --> 01:59:55.159
I mean, that's you're the one
who's judging this. Oh, sure,

1494
01:59:57.000 --> 02:00:03.039
you're the one who matters, Okay, I manner. Oh it's pretty.

1495
02:00:03.279 --> 02:00:09.159
Yeah, it's very pretty in that
like island prison kind of look.

1496
02:00:09.479 --> 02:00:12.079
Oh wow, there, I don't
see any pictures on the ground. I

1497
02:00:12.119 --> 02:00:17.760
think you the people really don't go
there. Uh yeah, okay, well

1498
02:00:17.920 --> 02:00:25.319
only seeing pictures from a distance.
What do you think like a three or

1499
02:00:25.359 --> 02:00:30.840
something? A three man? It's
not scary. You're not easy to scare.

1500
02:00:32.479 --> 02:00:34.479
Yeah, I had to say,
I'm not a good judge for this.

1501
02:00:34.960 --> 02:00:39.119
How are you not a good judge? It's literally what you think is

1502
02:00:39.159 --> 02:00:46.840
what matters. But I'm wrong.
Okay, this one looks scary. Belts

1503
02:00:47.000 --> 02:00:56.199
Hiles Stetton Hospital. It's got German
in it. That's already scary. The

1504
02:00:56.239 --> 02:01:00.880
halls of the former belts hilst In
hospital are not for the fainthearted, after

1505
02:01:00.960 --> 02:01:05.439
all. The abandoned building is where
Adolf Hitler was treated after being wounded at

1506
02:01:05.439 --> 02:01:11.720
the Sommei. The hospital, made
up of sixty buildings, was built in

1507
02:01:11.800 --> 02:01:15.720
eighteen ninety eight as a sanatorium,
but it was transformed into a military hospital

1508
02:01:15.720 --> 02:01:21.359
at the beginning of World War One
for the Imperial German Army. Now left

1509
02:01:21.399 --> 02:01:26.880
to nature, the area is a
common haunt for photographers and thrill seekers,

1510
02:01:26.920 --> 02:01:31.960
although some sections of the hospital still
host a neurological rehabilitation center, so it's

1511
02:01:32.000 --> 02:01:38.319
still open in some areas. Although
some sections of the hospital still host a

1512
02:01:38.359 --> 02:01:44.159
neurological rehabilitation center and a Parkinson's disease
research center. The surgery, psychiatric ward

1513
02:01:44.199 --> 02:01:47.399
and Rifle Range have stood abandoned since
nineteen ninety four. That's what you need

1514
02:01:47.439 --> 02:01:55.000
to relax. The psychiatric ward patients
rifle range nearby. Yea perfect, perfect

1515
02:01:58.760 --> 02:02:02.920
that's not stopped people from paying it
a visit. Dilapidated structures, peeling paint,

1516
02:02:03.000 --> 02:02:08.479
and an air of spooky expectations still
fill the walls, as so does

1517
02:02:08.640 --> 02:02:12.279
something else. The hospital is said
to be haunted by the ghosts of those

1518
02:02:12.520 --> 02:02:16.920
who perished in its wards. And
here's a couple of images that are pretty

1519
02:02:16.920 --> 02:02:24.600
scary. Yeah, the abandoned operating
theater still bears marks from its time is

1520
02:02:24.640 --> 02:02:29.840
a Soviet military hospital. Chilling images
give a haunting insight into the former military

1521
02:02:29.840 --> 02:02:38.279
hospital where Adolf Hitler was once a
patient. Yeah what do you think?

1522
02:02:39.079 --> 02:02:44.800
I mean? I think like a
like a five because because like Nazis are

1523
02:02:44.840 --> 02:02:49.439
scary. I guess a five because
Hitler basically, yeah, okay, I

1524
02:02:49.439 --> 02:02:56.359
can respect that half of it,
like has like they're like still doing stuff

1525
02:02:56.399 --> 02:03:00.399
there ye here. Well it's a
huge complex. Well why they just let

1526
02:03:00.439 --> 02:03:04.199
the buildings all just fall down like
that around them? I don't know,

1527
02:03:05.199 --> 02:03:14.640
it's kind of stupid. Yeah,
let's see. Okay, Oh, this

1528
02:03:14.680 --> 02:03:20.159
one's creepy, man I man,
Chell, you're hard to scare. The

1529
02:03:20.239 --> 02:03:30.840
Island of the Dolls. Yeah,
it's a creepy place located in the Amliko

1530
02:03:31.000 --> 02:03:38.199
Lagoon. I'm saying that. Poorly
dubbed the Island of Nightmares, this creepy

1531
02:03:38.239 --> 02:03:44.319
Mexican spot is steeped in spooky myths
and legends surrounding the mutilated dolls that fill

1532
02:03:44.439 --> 02:03:48.800
the island. They're nestled everywhere amidst
the buildings, the trees, and canals.

1533
02:03:49.319 --> 02:03:54.840
It looks like something out of a
horror film. Some claim they hear

1534
02:03:54.880 --> 02:04:00.239
the dolls whispering to each other,
who are those people? Well on boats

1535
02:04:00.680 --> 02:04:09.119
near the islands said the dolls lured
them closer in the woods of I can't

1536
02:04:09.119 --> 02:04:16.239
believe. I don't know how that
oxom oxom Oxomliko Oxomliko. Miles away from

1537
02:04:16.279 --> 02:04:21.199
civilization, hundreds of tourists and thrill
seekers arrive every year. Known locally as

1538
02:04:21.199 --> 02:04:30.640
the Chinampas Chinnapas, the the area
was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in

1539
02:04:30.720 --> 02:04:34.119
nineteen eighty seven. According to the
island's website. The dolls are quote threatening

1540
02:04:34.479 --> 02:04:39.239
even in the bright light of mid
day, but in the dark they are

1541
02:04:39.279 --> 02:04:46.199
particularly disturbing. Yeah, I mean
I know about this one. Yeah,

1542
02:04:46.279 --> 02:04:51.399
yeah, And I do think it's
kind of on. It's a little unsettling

1543
02:04:51.880 --> 02:04:56.279
because I don't, like, I
don't think the dolls are like haunted.

1544
02:04:56.760 --> 02:05:00.680
I think people are just weird there
and stuff. But I wouldn't really want

1545
02:05:00.720 --> 02:05:08.159
to go there at night because I
am scared of dolls in general. Yeah,

1546
02:05:08.600 --> 02:05:12.760
have you seen Chucky? No I
haven't. I'm gonna send you that

1547
02:05:12.880 --> 02:05:15.000
DVD set for Christmas? Okay,
No, no, no, you need

1548
02:05:15.039 --> 02:05:24.079
to end the puppet Master movies too. It's okay, why not? There

1549
02:05:24.119 --> 02:05:27.640
we go. Yeah, it's like
real, real scary. It's just like

1550
02:05:27.800 --> 02:05:32.880
a little island when they're just dolls
hanging everywhere. Does anyone know why they're

1551
02:05:32.920 --> 02:05:38.760
there? Because people put them there
or something? I don't remember, because

1552
02:05:38.760 --> 02:05:43.199
like that's the thing that's throwing me
is like this article is relatively sparse,

1553
02:05:44.359 --> 02:05:48.079
so it's like, yeah, but
like why it keeps searching, it keeps

1554
02:05:48.079 --> 02:05:51.680
showing me the Island of Death movie, which I have seen. It's not

1555
02:05:51.760 --> 02:05:58.520
Island of Dolls or something. There
we go, that's another doll island,

1556
02:06:00.600 --> 02:06:09.159
lais de lasmuencos Morencas. In the
mid twentieth century, Barrea began to collect

1557
02:06:09.199 --> 02:06:13.479
dolls and hang them around the small
island. The island gained notoriety in nineteen

1558
02:06:13.520 --> 02:06:17.239
forty three one Mexican director Emilio Fernandez
used it as a location to film Maria

1559
02:06:17.319 --> 02:06:21.159
Candereira. After Barrea's death in two
thousand and one, his family opened the

1560
02:06:21.199 --> 02:06:25.319
island to the public as a tourist
attraction. In addition to the hundreds of

1561
02:06:25.319 --> 02:06:29.119
dolls, the grounds host a small
museum with articles from local newspapers about both

1562
02:06:29.159 --> 02:06:31.600
the island and the previous owner.
There's a store and three rooms, one

1563
02:06:31.640 --> 02:06:35.159
of which seems to have been used
as a bedroom. In this room is

1564
02:06:35.199 --> 02:06:40.479
the first doll that Barrea collected,
as well as Augustina, his favorite doll.

1565
02:06:40.680 --> 02:06:44.359
The Island of Dolls is acceptable accessible
to the public by gondola like boats

1566
02:06:44.399 --> 02:06:48.399
referred to as traineras. Most rowers
are willing to transport people into the island,

1567
02:06:48.439 --> 02:06:54.600
but there are those who refuse out
of superstition. The journey often includes

1568
02:06:54.640 --> 02:06:59.880
a tour of ecological areas, a
Jilotte museum, Appallato Canal, to Hua

1569
02:07:00.640 --> 02:07:08.520
Lagoon and Yona Island. I want
to know about La La Rona Island since

1570
02:07:08.560 --> 02:07:14.000
that's like Laya Arna. Yeah,
but okay, so interesting. So I

1571
02:07:14.000 --> 02:07:18.239
guess that the dolls get extra creepy
because they're just exposed to stuff. Yeah,

1572
02:07:18.319 --> 02:07:23.640
I mean it's just I mean,
I think it's kind of I don't

1573
02:07:23.640 --> 02:07:28.960
think it's terrifying, but it is
kind of scary because there's just stuff everywhere.

1574
02:07:29.039 --> 02:07:33.359
And so what would you rate our
final one? Like like a six?

1575
02:07:33.479 --> 02:07:36.880
Maybe? Whoa? So that one
gets more than the mental hospital that

1576
02:07:36.960 --> 02:07:41.960
had Hitler there? Yeah, I
mean you know, like Hitler died in

1577
02:07:42.000 --> 02:07:45.880
that hospital or something. Well,
I mean no, because it's the hospitals

1578
02:07:45.920 --> 02:07:53.600
on the hospitals in Argentina. What. Oh gosh, Well, now I

1579
02:07:53.600 --> 02:07:58.560
want to know about La Jarona Island, like really bad, and there's almost

1580
02:07:58.560 --> 02:08:01.199
nothing when I search it on on
Google. Sorry, So I guess I

1581
02:08:01.199 --> 02:08:05.000
gotta go there. Pack your bags, let's go, Chell, let's go

1582
02:08:07.239 --> 02:08:09.960
by. Oh yeah, it's super
close. So yeah, Well, we're

1583
02:08:09.960 --> 02:08:13.560
gonna take a break and when we
come back, we're gonna talk a little

1584
02:08:13.600 --> 02:08:16.640
bit about some horror movies I saw
in the theater, and we're gonna talk

1585
02:08:16.680 --> 02:08:22.079
a little bit about some spooky Reddit
crap that Chell is always finding because she's

1586
02:08:22.399 --> 02:08:35.439
generous with her time right after this. Now that we are back, I

1587
02:08:35.479 --> 02:08:37.960
want to talk a little bit about
this here on Monthly Spooky before we wrap

1588
02:08:39.079 --> 02:08:43.479
up this month's rundown. I saw
Chell two horror films in the theater,

1589
02:08:43.600 --> 02:08:50.560
brand new movies. Oh. I
consider it. As a lifelong horror fan,

1590
02:08:50.640 --> 02:08:54.720
I believe that it's your duty to
go see horror movies in the theater,

1591
02:08:54.359 --> 02:08:58.239
because if you don't, then you're
gonna not get that anymore. Yeah.

1592
02:08:58.319 --> 02:09:03.520
Yeah, So I try to see
any horror movie in the theater,

1593
02:09:03.640 --> 02:09:05.800
even if I don't think i'll like
it, I'll go see it because I

1594
02:09:05.960 --> 02:09:11.279
believe that it's important that horror movies
be in the theater. Yeah. That

1595
02:09:11.359 --> 02:09:16.439
being said, I have two very
different examples of horror in the theater.

1596
02:09:16.600 --> 02:09:20.199
One that's a good example and one
that is not a good example. The

1597
02:09:20.239 --> 02:09:26.920
first film I saw in the theater
was an independent film distributed by a twenty

1598
02:09:26.920 --> 02:09:33.000
four called Talk to Me and Talk
to Me. As this concept where basically

1599
02:09:33.039 --> 02:09:39.640
there's this creepy hand statue that is
that's somehow supernatural. They don't explain it,

1600
02:09:39.640 --> 02:09:43.840
which I kind of like that they
don't bother with that part, and

1601
02:09:43.119 --> 02:09:48.159
kids, it becomes a viral challenge
for kids. You're supposed to hold hands

1602
02:09:48.199 --> 02:09:52.720
with it and then you say talk
to me, and then you will while

1603
02:09:52.720 --> 02:09:56.880
you're holding the hand, you will
see the hand will be replaced by a

1604
02:09:56.960 --> 02:10:00.960
dead person, Like you'll be holding
a dead person's hand and they'll be staring

1605
02:10:00.960 --> 02:10:05.399
at you. But the amount of
scary varies because sometimes they're just like a

1606
02:10:05.439 --> 02:10:09.680
woman, like an old lady,
and other times they're like a person who

1607
02:10:09.119 --> 02:10:13.720
was killed in a car accident or
drowned or something, So it varies how

1608
02:10:13.720 --> 02:10:18.000
scary it is, okay, And
the idea is, yeah, it becomes

1609
02:10:18.039 --> 02:10:20.119
a viral challenge. So the secret
is that you do the talk to me,

1610
02:10:20.159 --> 02:10:20.920
and then once you see the person, you don't let go of the

1611
02:10:20.920 --> 02:10:26.000
hand, and then you say,
I think it's I let you in is

1612
02:10:26.000 --> 02:10:31.039
what you say. Then you get
possessed by that spirit you're holding hands with.

1613
02:10:33.239 --> 02:10:35.079
I think they said it's like you
can't do more than a minute or

1614
02:10:35.079 --> 02:10:39.880
else it can be dangerous. Apparently. The idea is that like when it's

1615
02:10:39.920 --> 02:10:43.079
over and they pull the hand out
of your hand and you stop letting them

1616
02:10:43.159 --> 02:10:46.760
use your body. Look like it's
like a crazy rush. It's like super

1617
02:10:46.800 --> 02:10:50.279
exciting and wild and your eyes turn
all black and people film it, you

1618
02:10:50.319 --> 02:10:54.319
know. It's like it's like a
clout kids cloud thing. So I'm sure

1619
02:10:54.359 --> 02:10:56.720
you're wondering, Okay, that all
sounds great, but how does it become

1620
02:10:56.760 --> 02:10:58.520
a horror movie? Like, what's
the problem? Right, I'm sure that's

1621
02:10:58.520 --> 02:11:03.640
what you're Obviously, it starts to
go a little bit wrong. One of

1622
02:11:03.640 --> 02:11:05.239
the characters starts getting addicted to it, like wants to do it all the

1623
02:11:05.279 --> 02:11:11.079
time, and then that gets tied
into her mother being dead and her hoping

1624
02:11:11.119 --> 02:11:13.760
to talk to her mother. Yeah, because if you try enough, you

1625
02:11:13.840 --> 02:11:20.560
might eventually you know, get someone. You know. Yeah, really good,

1626
02:11:20.920 --> 02:11:24.439
fun kind of possession, horror,
supernatural thing, low budget made in

1627
02:11:24.479 --> 02:11:28.199
Australia. I enjoyed the hell out
of it. A lot of people did

1628
02:11:28.199 --> 02:11:33.239
too. It's been very successful in
the box office. And yeah, I

1629
02:11:33.239 --> 02:11:35.439
would recommend it. If Talk to
Me is showing in a theater near you

1630
02:11:35.720 --> 02:11:39.479
go see it or rent it what
however you like to see movies. But

1631
02:11:39.520 --> 02:11:41.920
I think you'll enjoy it. Unfortunately, we didn't get Cobweb out here,

1632
02:11:41.960 --> 02:11:46.000
which is a horror film I really
wanted to see in the theater, so

1633
02:11:46.039 --> 02:11:48.359
I'll have to watch it on streaming. I'll probably talk about it next month.

1634
02:11:48.399 --> 02:11:50.560
But yeah, just really enjoyed it. I'm not a movie critic.

1635
02:11:50.600 --> 02:11:52.960
I just love movies and I like
to talk about what I like in them.

1636
02:11:54.000 --> 02:11:56.640
That movie had a lot of really
great moments and scary stuff, and

1637
02:11:56.680 --> 02:12:00.439
I thought the twist was pretty good
and hard to predict. But maybe I'm

1638
02:12:00.439 --> 02:12:03.680
wrong, so talk to me.
Definitely go see it. Now. Let's

1639
02:12:03.680 --> 02:12:13.159
talk about the slightly less successful horror
film in theaters, right, The last

1640
02:12:13.279 --> 02:12:18.800
voyage of the Demeter for those who
don't know the Demeter was the boat in

1641
02:12:18.920 --> 02:12:22.439
Dracula. You know how there's a
boat that shows up with like nobody on

1642
02:12:22.479 --> 02:12:28.680
board in the original Dracula. I
mean I know because you told me so.

1643
02:12:28.760 --> 02:12:31.279
Oh my god. I swear kids
these days don't read. All they

1644
02:12:31.319 --> 02:12:39.319
care about is like, you know, saying no cap Yeah, basically the

1645
02:12:39.359 --> 02:12:41.640
book. I haven't read Dracula since
I was a teenager, but the book

1646
02:12:41.680 --> 02:12:43.880
had like some details about what happened
on the boat, but in the movie

1647
02:12:43.920 --> 02:12:48.079
it's just the boats already nobody's there, but there the cargo is still on

1648
02:12:48.119 --> 02:12:52.600
there, and one of the cargo
pieces is spoiler, a crate with Dracula

1649
02:12:52.640 --> 02:12:58.880
in it. In this version the
original Dracula story, he sleeps in a

1650
02:13:00.119 --> 02:13:03.079
crate of the dirt from his homeland. Okay, that's what he has to

1651
02:13:03.119 --> 02:13:07.119
sleep in at night or during the
day. He sleeps in a crate full

1652
02:13:07.159 --> 02:13:11.479
of the soil from his homeland.
Wow. Yeah, so oh so please

1653
02:13:11.640 --> 02:13:16.399
So like at home, he can
just sleep on the ground and it's fine.

1654
02:13:16.479 --> 02:13:20.159
He sleeps in like a like a
tomb, like a catacomb under his

1655
02:13:20.239 --> 02:13:24.199
castle. He sleeps in that dirt. He brings it. So's comfy,

1656
02:13:24.359 --> 02:13:26.960
got it? Yeah? Yeah,
he has a crate full of dirt from

1657
02:13:26.960 --> 02:13:31.760
from Transylvania. Okay. So The
Last Voyage of the Demeter is a big

1658
02:13:31.800 --> 02:13:39.439
budget action horror take on what happened
to the crew on the Demeter with Dracula

1659
02:13:39.479 --> 02:13:46.119
onboard. It's not a bad movie, but it didn't have a lot that

1660
02:13:46.199 --> 02:13:48.760
stood out to me. It was
fine, like I had a fun time,

1661
02:13:48.960 --> 02:13:52.039
but it was a very expensive movie. It's flopped horribly in the theater,

1662
02:13:52.319 --> 02:13:56.119
and this is the second Dracula movie
to flop in theaters this year.

1663
02:13:56.039 --> 02:14:01.079
Renfield flopped and now and Now the
Last Voyage of the Demeter flopped, and

1664
02:14:01.239 --> 02:14:05.079
I really enjoyed it. I mean, like I said, I probably won't

1665
02:14:05.119 --> 02:14:07.159
watch it again. I don't think
it was that level. But I mean,

1666
02:14:07.399 --> 02:14:11.760
just because a movie isn't your favorite
movie ever doesn't mean it's not worth

1667
02:14:11.800 --> 02:14:16.319
watching. That's one thing that drives
me crazy. It's like some most movies

1668
02:14:16.319 --> 02:14:20.319
are meant for you to watch them
once, you know, it's it's on

1669
02:14:20.359 --> 02:14:22.720
the viewer if it becomes their favorite
movie, and then they want to watch

1670
02:14:22.760 --> 02:14:24.239
it a bunch. But a lot
of films, you know, you watch

1671
02:14:24.279 --> 02:14:26.880
it once and you're like, hey, that was fun, and that's it.

1672
02:14:26.920 --> 02:14:28.239
You may never think about it again. And I think that that's the

1673
02:14:28.319 --> 02:14:35.319
healthy way to look at movies and
content consumption. Is like, as an

1674
02:14:35.399 --> 02:14:37.000
artist, you should hope that they
watch it once, have a good time,

1675
02:14:37.640 --> 02:14:41.560
and never think of it again.
That should be like your worst case

1676
02:14:41.600 --> 02:14:43.960
scenario should be like and then they
never think of it again. Yeah.

1677
02:14:45.600 --> 02:14:48.600
So I liked it. It had
some cool stuff in it. I thought

1678
02:14:48.600 --> 02:14:50.800
it was a little bit too much
of an action movie and not enough of

1679
02:14:50.840 --> 02:14:54.640
a horror movie. And I think
that that alienates horror movie audiences. It's

1680
02:14:54.680 --> 02:15:01.439
kind of like that Mummy remake that
came out with Tom Cruise, where Universal

1681
02:15:01.479 --> 02:15:05.760
Studios was trying to restart like the
Monster Universe, but they keep they can't

1682
02:15:05.800 --> 02:15:09.920
help themselves. They don't. Instead
of making like a horror movie, they

1683
02:15:09.960 --> 02:15:15.319
make an expensive action movie with horror
creatures in it. Yeah, and I

1684
02:15:15.359 --> 02:15:18.680
don't. I think that just alienates
the horror audience, and then the action

1685
02:15:18.760 --> 02:15:22.560
audience just isn't that into it anyway
my opinion. But I know a lot

1686
02:15:22.600 --> 02:15:24.760
of people like Last Voyage of the
Demeter. I did too. It had

1687
02:15:24.760 --> 02:15:28.439
a lot more horror elements than a
lot of other examples. It had a

1688
02:15:28.479 --> 02:15:31.600
lot of blood, a lot of
scares and stuff. But it just didn't

1689
02:15:31.600 --> 02:15:33.159
click with me enough. And they
spent forty five million dollars on it,

1690
02:15:33.159 --> 02:15:39.079
so it's made like sixteen million.
It's gonna flop horribly, just like Renfield

1691
02:15:39.079 --> 02:15:41.840
did. And I hate that because
when I tell people, like I worry

1692
02:15:41.880 --> 02:15:43.760
that's gonna flop, there like it
looks good, and I'm like, I'm

1693
02:15:43.760 --> 02:15:46.199
not talking about how good the movie
is. I'm talking about if it will

1694
02:15:46.239 --> 02:15:50.680
be successful in the box office.
I'm gonna go see it. I think

1695
02:15:50.680 --> 02:15:52.159
it looked great and I did enjoy
it. I did not regret going to

1696
02:15:52.199 --> 02:15:56.960
see it. So I don't know, but I feel bad. So if

1697
02:15:56.000 --> 02:16:01.960
you love Dracula, if you love
period piece boat movies, I know that

1698
02:16:03.000 --> 02:16:05.520
sounds really specific, but you know, like movie old time ship movies,

1699
02:16:07.399 --> 02:16:09.159
it's got a lot of that going
for it, you know, just being

1700
02:16:09.199 --> 02:16:15.079
on a ship on the ocean in
the olden days. Yeah, that's really

1701
02:16:15.640 --> 02:16:18.399
really in there. Then I recommend
Last Voyage of the Demeter. Okay,

1702
02:16:20.159 --> 02:16:22.560
so I enjoyed it. It's just
there's a lot of caveats because I really

1703
02:16:22.600 --> 02:16:26.520
think they could have done more with
less. I think if they had made

1704
02:16:26.520 --> 02:16:31.560
the movie for like ten million dollars
or five million dollars and pared down all

1705
02:16:31.560 --> 02:16:35.440
the ridiculous action and made it really
scary, I think it would have every

1706
02:16:35.440 --> 02:16:39.719
way been more successful. But that
is just my opinion. And I'm you

1707
02:16:39.760 --> 02:16:43.200
know, don't look at me.
I'm just the guy sitting here with the

1708
02:16:43.479 --> 02:16:52.520
dog with cancer on his foot.
So on that note, shell, what

1709
02:16:52.680 --> 02:16:56.520
you got over on reddit for us, Let's see, so I was really

1710
02:16:56.520 --> 02:17:03.159
trying this month and things for just
like not good. Yeah, sorryting you

1711
02:17:03.200 --> 02:17:07.479
to say that you were trying.
Yeah, sorry, but no, but

1712
02:17:07.600 --> 02:17:11.280
like there was even on the century
homes reddit there was a like what's the

1713
02:17:11.319 --> 02:17:13.559
creepiest thing that ever happened to you
in your century home? And none of

1714
02:17:13.559 --> 02:17:16.559
the stories were scary, and I
was just like, really, really,

1715
02:17:18.799 --> 02:17:24.120
so I will tell you that there
was from the glitch in the matrix reddit,

1716
02:17:24.600 --> 02:17:30.719
uh sub reddit, there was.
So there's this dude right right.

1717
02:17:30.879 --> 02:17:33.239
I guess I don't really need to
look at this because I know what it

1718
02:17:33.319 --> 02:17:41.200
is. And he was in his
bed sleeping, I guess, because like

1719
02:17:41.280 --> 02:17:45.280
that's what he does, and his
alarm went off for him to wake up

1720
02:17:45.280 --> 02:17:48.760
to go to work. It's like
a whatever, he's got to be at

1721
02:17:48.799 --> 02:17:52.159
work at five thirty in the morning, went off, went off, and

1722
02:17:52.239 --> 02:17:54.120
he gets up and he realizes that
his wife is home in bed with him,

1723
02:17:54.120 --> 02:17:58.760
which is weird because she works like
an overnight shift, so he's not,

1724
02:17:58.000 --> 02:18:01.680
so she's not usually home. So
he like wakes her up and it's

1725
02:18:01.719 --> 02:18:05.360
like are you okay, Like did
something happen? Did you leave work early?

1726
02:18:05.799 --> 02:18:09.760
And she's like, I didn't go
to work last night. I was

1727
02:18:09.799 --> 02:18:13.479
home with you all night and he's
just like, ah, I don't,

1728
02:18:13.559 --> 02:18:16.520
but I gotta go to work,
and he's like kind of rushing and he's

1729
02:18:16.520 --> 02:18:20.159
trying to get to work on time. And he gets there and wherever the

1730
02:18:20.159 --> 02:18:24.360
hell he works, like, there's
no cars in the parking lot and the

1731
02:18:24.399 --> 02:18:26.200
doors are locked, and he's like
what. So he calls his boss and

1732
02:18:26.239 --> 02:18:30.719
he's like, what's going on?
And his boss is like, why are

1733
02:18:30.760 --> 02:18:33.239
you at work an hour early?
And he's like, oh, so it

1734
02:18:33.280 --> 02:18:39.200
turned out it was four thirty and
he somehow messed up. But then he

1735
02:18:39.319 --> 02:18:41.000
like something else happened, and you're
just having like a really bad morning.

1736
02:18:41.559 --> 02:18:46.799
And while he's like looking for his
headphones that he lost while walking in the

1737
02:18:46.840 --> 02:18:50.639
parking lot, his wife calls and
says, like, can you can you

1738
02:18:50.680 --> 02:18:54.200
just talk to me, because like
I'm driving home and I just want to

1739
02:18:54.239 --> 02:18:58.959
make sure that I stay away because
I'm really exhausted. So she wasn't there,

1740
02:19:05.079 --> 02:19:11.000
jeez, So what happened? I
mean, a gas leak is my

1741
02:19:11.079 --> 02:19:16.799
first thought of that one. Geez, I don't I don't. I don't

1742
02:19:16.799 --> 02:19:20.200
even have a That one's too much
for me. I don't even have a

1743
02:19:20.239 --> 02:19:22.680
theory. I mean, I think
it's really possible that he was just having

1744
02:19:22.879 --> 02:19:26.840
like he was like partially asleep and
having some sort of like you know,

1745
02:19:28.440 --> 02:19:33.440
dream state like hallucination when he woke
up and maybe his alarm didn't even go

1746
02:19:33.479 --> 02:19:37.040
off and he just thought it did
You know? I've definitely woken up an

1747
02:19:37.040 --> 02:19:41.319
hour early and then been like what
what did I Like usually I realized before

1748
02:19:41.319 --> 02:19:43.360
I get out of bed, but
I've you know, like woken up at

1749
02:19:43.360 --> 02:19:46.559
six and been like, oh god, I gotta get up and then realize

1750
02:19:46.559 --> 02:19:50.000
like, it's like not time for
me to get up. So yeah,

1751
02:19:50.159 --> 02:19:54.360
so I think that's possible. Other
than that, maybe he switched in out,

1752
02:19:54.399 --> 02:19:58.360
in and out of some timelines.
Maybe his wife we asked him,

1753
02:19:58.799 --> 02:20:01.239
is it Baron Stein or Baron Staying? We didn't ask him. I don't

1754
02:20:01.319 --> 02:20:07.040
think. In the comments, see
this is this is why you people need

1755
02:20:07.079 --> 02:20:11.799
someone like me, a detail oriented
man who can really get to the bottom

1756
02:20:11.799 --> 02:20:18.440
of these things. Well you're welcome, No, I'm not. Oh you've

1757
02:20:18.440 --> 02:20:24.719
all made that very clear. Oh
no, that's a that's a freaky one.

1758
02:20:24.239 --> 02:20:30.680
Yeah yeah, yeah. My money
would be on like dreamt some of

1759
02:20:30.680 --> 02:20:35.280
it and then disoriented obviously, So
you went to work early, that would

1760
02:20:35.280 --> 02:20:39.120
be my guess. Yeah, yeah, me too, Well I did a

1761
02:20:39.120 --> 02:20:41.959
short film called Scary Clown. I
don't know if you remember that one.

1762
02:20:41.639 --> 02:20:46.840
I think so. Yeah. And
in Scary Clown, at the towards the

1763
02:20:46.920 --> 02:20:50.280
end, this girl, it's like
five minutes long. This girl gets up

1764
02:20:50.319 --> 02:20:54.520
from the couch and as she's walking
away from the couch, you see her

1765
02:20:54.559 --> 02:20:58.799
boyfriend sitting on the couch next to
her. It's like she wakes up from

1766
02:20:58.840 --> 02:21:01.680
a nap. He's just sitting there, but he's in all silhouette. You

1767
02:21:01.719 --> 02:21:05.559
can't really see his details, but
it's clear it's him. And as she's

1768
02:21:05.600 --> 02:21:07.920
walking into the bathroom and saying like, I've got to get my contact lenses

1769
02:21:07.920 --> 02:21:11.799
out because my eyes hurt. Here, her phone rings and scares her and

1770
02:21:11.799 --> 02:21:13.680
she answers it, and it's her
boyfriend saying like, I'm so sorry,

1771
02:21:13.680 --> 02:21:16.159
I'm running it. I'll be there
as soon as I can. And then

1772
02:21:16.159 --> 02:21:20.479
we pan over and now that the
clown who's been following her around the whole

1773
02:21:20.479 --> 02:21:24.799
short is sitting there looking at her. I love the idea of peripheral vision

1774
02:21:24.520 --> 02:21:26.799
being depicted, and that's how I
depicted. It was like your brain just

1775
02:21:26.840 --> 02:21:30.879
decided that that's your boyfriend, Yeah, that who would be sitting there,

1776
02:21:31.040 --> 02:21:33.479
but that was not who was sitting
there. I like stuff like that,

1777
02:21:33.799 --> 02:21:37.079
you know, silly silly thing like
that. So what's your next one on

1778
02:21:37.159 --> 02:21:41.360
the Reddit chopping block? I should
have done that one first, because this

1779
02:21:41.399 --> 02:21:46.319
one wasn't that good. Ll and
with a whimper, then that's okay.

1780
02:21:48.000 --> 02:21:54.200
There was tucket. Yeah. Yeah. So there's just this dude who lives

1781
02:21:54.200 --> 02:22:01.479
in a house that's old and the
house or the dude that probably both and

1782
02:22:01.719 --> 02:22:07.920
you know his he they were having
like some paranormal type activity in their house.

1783
02:22:07.239 --> 02:22:11.000
But then like it says like maybe
like a year ago, he was

1784
02:22:11.040 --> 02:22:18.440
like I guess, like taking like
vents away from like I'm sorry, taking

1785
02:22:18.479 --> 02:22:22.319
paint away from the vents so that
he could like clean and vacuum out the

1786
02:22:22.319 --> 02:22:28.159
events. And he was vacuuming out
one and something got stuck in the hose

1787
02:22:28.719 --> 02:22:39.479
and it was a decapitated mouse and
it like it it didn't have any insides,

1788
02:22:39.200 --> 02:22:45.239
and it was tied. No,
the mount the head was there too,

1789
02:22:46.399 --> 02:22:52.639
and it then the blade that was
used to decapitate it was there,

1790
02:22:52.959 --> 02:22:56.680
and a playing card and that's it. What suit was the playing card?

1791
02:22:58.479 --> 02:23:07.319
I don't remember and it's not here. See how can I this is very

1792
02:23:07.360 --> 02:23:11.399
disappointing. Yeah, I really needed
to know that. I'm sorry it I

1793
02:23:13.239 --> 02:23:16.639
he posted it in a different thread, so oh, I could probably just

1794
02:23:16.680 --> 02:23:22.639
look hold on, find it.
This is so important because this is the

1795
02:23:22.680 --> 02:23:24.760
clue. This is the thing that's
going to get us to the next level.

1796
02:23:24.799 --> 02:23:30.479
I'm figuring all this out here.
We gotta find out what was the

1797
02:23:30.559 --> 02:23:33.319
card? Come on, was it
you know, the suicide king? Was

1798
02:23:33.319 --> 02:23:37.280
it the dead man's hand? What
could it have been? It's the eight

1799
02:23:37.360 --> 02:23:43.360
of diamonds. You gotta sit it
into the microphone. Oh, I'm sorry.

1800
02:23:43.440 --> 02:23:46.680
I had to try to look at
it. It's the aid of diamonds.

1801
02:23:46.000 --> 02:23:50.079
Eight of diamonds. Yeah, I
don't know. I wonder if aid

1802
02:23:50.120 --> 02:23:54.719
of diamonds means anything, but like
it's literally the aid of diamonds. Then

1803
02:23:54.920 --> 02:24:00.040
it's a it's a mouse that's decapitated, and then at the head of a

1804
02:24:00.120 --> 02:24:05.959
mouse and a blade that was used
to decapitate the mouse, and the tail

1805
02:24:05.000 --> 02:24:11.360
of the mouse, or maybe that's
string. I looked up a website that

1806
02:24:11.479 --> 02:24:16.200
does like tells you what these cards
mean. Supposedly, it's this eight of

1807
02:24:16.280 --> 02:24:18.639
diamonds, meaning is unpredictable on a
rainy day, This card announces obstacles and

1808
02:24:18.639 --> 02:24:22.799
efforts without without success on the sunny
day. On the contrary, it means

1809
02:24:22.840 --> 02:24:26.680
good prospect for business. The deeper
message of Eight of Spades is that prudence

1810
02:24:28.120 --> 02:24:31.879
is that of prudence, even if
it's sunny outside. Take an umbrella.

1811
02:24:31.639 --> 02:24:35.280
Yeah that help. That didn't help
at all. I'm sorry I did that.

1812
02:24:35.280 --> 02:24:39.879
That's okay, it I mean,
yeah, well that's that one.

1813
02:24:39.959 --> 02:24:45.959
I mean, I mean, decapitated
mouse means cat. There's a cat.

1814
02:24:46.559 --> 02:24:52.520
That's what that means. No,
no, no, that it's is decapitated

1815
02:24:52.559 --> 02:25:01.040
by like a like a blade.
That they are We still thinking cats are

1816
02:25:01.239 --> 02:25:07.959
cats are cats and the head is
little bear? This one. No,

1817
02:25:07.159 --> 02:25:13.200
this was sorry, what's your theory? What's your theory? Though? Right?

1818
02:25:13.559 --> 02:25:16.319
And then put it in there just
that a person did that. Yeah,

1819
02:25:16.520 --> 02:25:20.639
that's always your theory. You're like
a person. Yeah, pretty much.

1820
02:25:20.719 --> 02:25:24.879
Fair. Well, we may never
know, yeah, and knowing is

1821
02:25:24.920 --> 02:25:28.760
half the battle. I don't know
what I meant by that. I also

1822
02:25:28.799 --> 02:25:33.040
want to mention we got a we
got a email, well, actually was

1823
02:25:33.040 --> 02:25:37.719
a voice message, but I can't
play it on the show because pod Page

1824
02:25:37.799 --> 02:25:43.239
was acting weird. You can leave
us voicemails on weekly spooky dot com.

1825
02:25:43.600 --> 02:25:48.559
We do get them, and if
I can get the website to work with

1826
02:25:48.600 --> 02:25:52.680
me, I could probably get it
to let us play it. But right

1827
02:25:52.719 --> 02:25:58.159
now it's just not it's not playing
ball, but the message. Let me

1828
02:25:58.239 --> 02:26:03.000
find the message for you, because
I did want to at least react to

1829
02:26:03.079 --> 02:26:05.239
it. It was about it.
We were talking briefly about the Amityville horror

1830
02:26:05.319 --> 02:26:13.440
last time, and let's see,
I should have prepared this ahead of time.

1831
02:26:13.600 --> 02:26:18.280
Shut up. Okay, this is
from Nancy Lund. Actually, I

1832
02:26:18.360 --> 02:26:22.559
might be able to play it.
Chelly. You'll have to be quiet so

1833
02:26:22.600 --> 02:26:30.479
that it doesn't echo back. Okay, oh, okay, you're being quiet.

1834
02:26:30.520 --> 02:26:35.520
Okay, here this is from Nancy
Lund. What about the murders at

1835
02:26:35.559 --> 02:26:43.440
the Amityville horror house, the father
Marden I believe it was the children.

1836
02:26:45.360 --> 02:26:48.000
I do want to mention we were
not referring to the Defao murders, which

1837
02:26:48.000 --> 02:26:52.920
were the murderers that happened before the
events of the Amityville haunting that really did

1838
02:26:52.040 --> 02:26:56.159
happen, and the son who committed
it, Ronald Dafao Jr. I believe,

1839
02:26:58.120 --> 02:27:00.959
has claimed that the devil told them
to do it, and a bunch

1840
02:27:00.959 --> 02:27:03.440
of other things. But there are
a lot of theories about it. So

1841
02:27:05.319 --> 02:27:11.000
yeah, that's pretty much that's all
I know on Earth. So on that

1842
02:27:11.040 --> 02:27:15.479
note, I think it's time for
us to wrap up the show, and

1843
02:27:16.280 --> 02:27:20.040
I want to thank everybody for listening
