1
00:00:05.160 --> 00:00:06.440
All right, man, you're up next.

2
00:00:07.080 --> 00:00:09.000
Mine has also got to take place in it like

3
00:00:09.039 --> 00:00:11.080
a parking situation. This is gonna be in a parking

4
00:00:11.080 --> 00:00:16.120
garage here, all right, So she writes this. This happened

5
00:00:16.120 --> 00:00:18.920
to me when I was nineteen. Me and my friends

6
00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:21.600
decided to hang out at the local mall on the

7
00:00:21.640 --> 00:00:25.239
busier side of town. We shopped all day and stayed

8
00:00:25.280 --> 00:00:28.440
in the food court until they closed. The mall was

9
00:00:28.480 --> 00:00:32.079
one of the latest operating businesses in towns, so we

10
00:00:32.159 --> 00:00:35.439
got out. It was basically a ghost town outside. I

11
00:00:35.479 --> 00:00:38.640
believe it was close to midnight. I was one of

12
00:00:38.679 --> 00:00:40.719
the only people in the group with a car. Most

13
00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:42.799
of the others rode bikes or had a parent or

14
00:00:42.880 --> 00:00:45.320
friend picked them up. My car was parked on the

15
00:00:45.359 --> 00:00:49.079
third story of the parking garage. It was mostly empty,

16
00:00:49.880 --> 00:00:52.880
and I assumed most of the cars still left belonged

17
00:00:52.920 --> 00:00:56.280
to the night staff and security. As I climbed hire,

18
00:00:56.399 --> 00:01:00.240
the cold, dim garage began to creep me out. I

19
00:01:00.359 --> 00:01:05.000
defensively crossed my arms as I got closer to my car. Slowly,

20
00:01:05.200 --> 00:01:09.920
I began to notice a sound. It was a distant sobbing.

21
00:01:10.959 --> 00:01:15.599
Getting closer to my car, the cries grew louder, and

22
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:20.879
I became concerned and upset as I passed passed by

23
00:01:20.920 --> 00:01:24.239
my car to investigate the sound. It seemed like it

24
00:01:24.280 --> 00:01:27.359
was a lost child or something. It came to this

25
00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:30.239
turn where the ramp continued up to the fourth floor,

26
00:01:30.879 --> 00:01:33.599
and peeking around the corner, I saw a big work

27
00:01:33.719 --> 00:01:38.040
van idling. I scared. I kept peeking. I saw a

28
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:43.040
pair of blake standing behind the van extremely still. This

29
00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:45.560
is when I noticed something about the crying I was hearing.

30
00:01:46.120 --> 00:01:49.480
There was another sound mixed in. It was an occasional

31
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:55.359
pop or clicking noise, almost like a midscal firecracker or

32
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:59.840
bubble wrap. I recognized the sound and my blood ran.

33
00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:05.480
It was a microphone pop. The sound came at the

34
00:02:05.519 --> 00:02:09.800
start and end of a recording. The crying sound was

35
00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:13.960
looping and it was coming from the van, and so

36
00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:17.240
when I gasped and ran to my car, I heard

37
00:02:17.240 --> 00:02:20.080
the van start rolling forward and soon shift into gear.

38
00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:22.360
I barely made it into my car and out of

39
00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:25.240
the garage. The van followed me for almost an hour

40
00:02:25.960 --> 00:02:28.879
as I circled around town trying to lose them. They

41
00:02:28.919 --> 00:02:31.919
eventually gave up and I made it home. Me be

42
00:02:32.080 --> 00:02:37.719
mindful of where you park and who you're with. Buildings

43
00:02:37.759 --> 00:02:41.520
have security cameras the only help after you've gone missing.

44
00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:45.719
These buildings are perfect place for bad people to find

45
00:02:45.759 --> 00:02:49.400
their victims. Let me start off by saying this I

46
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:53.319
love and not trying to take away from the story.

47
00:02:53.719 --> 00:02:57.400
I love how we're randomly playing music. Those of you listening,

48
00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:00.319
we're randomly playing music. There's no Rhyanborg reasons and it's

49
00:03:00.319 --> 00:03:02.439
just a loop of Gary Ish music.

50
00:03:03.280 --> 00:03:05.240
And there were multiple times I'm listening to that and

51
00:03:05.280 --> 00:03:07.680
the music's dropping. When you get it's like everything was

52
00:03:07.719 --> 00:03:10.879
timing perfectly. And I know when you're reading it, you

53
00:03:10.919 --> 00:03:13.599
don't know you're in this sune. But it was crazy

54
00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:16.159
how that timed out. I'm sure people listening picked up

55
00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:18.000
on that too. It was crazy.

56
00:03:18.400 --> 00:03:19.879
I noticed in your story is a lot.

57
00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:21.719
Yeah, it's like, how the heck does the time out

58
00:03:21.759 --> 00:03:22.039
like that?

59
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:22.520
All Right?

60
00:03:22.560 --> 00:03:25.439
We got some people commenting on sounds like the beginning

61
00:03:25.479 --> 00:03:28.639
of a Saw movie. Yes, that did. Were they luring them,

62
00:03:29.039 --> 00:03:30.479
Yes they were for sure.

63
00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:35.000
Yeah, that's I'm assuming they saw her coming up by herself.

64
00:03:35.080 --> 00:03:36.639
But she was gonna go up there anyway, right cause

65
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:37.479
it's where her car was.

66
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:41.280
Well, but this was, but they described it as being

67
00:03:41.360 --> 00:03:43.560
up on the fourth floor. She kind of went past

68
00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:46.439
her car and looked around up the ramp to the

69
00:03:46.479 --> 00:03:49.159
next level where the sound was coming from. So they

70
00:03:49.199 --> 00:03:50.800
were leading her past her car.

71
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:53.960
This sounds like I was planned for sure.

72
00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:57.520
Definitely. Yeah, I'm assuming they saw her inside the place.

73
00:03:57.599 --> 00:04:00.520
They probably knew she had a car out there, and

74
00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:02.919
then they saw her coming up and they started playing

75
00:04:02.960 --> 00:04:03.879
that sound.

76
00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.159
What was the sound again? It was a crying child,

77
00:04:07.400 --> 00:04:09.639
a crying child, but she could hear the micro like

78
00:04:09.680 --> 00:04:12.120
the that it was recording at the end.

79
00:04:12.319 --> 00:04:18.040
The little sound where sound re loops over sometimes.

80
00:04:18.199 --> 00:04:20.959
And the creepy part is so she has a view

81
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:23.920
straight on view of the vehicle and you can see

82
00:04:23.920 --> 00:04:26.720
the legs on the other side of it, and assumed

83
00:04:26.720 --> 00:04:30.920
to be an adult not moving. Yeah, this is.

84
00:04:30.839 --> 00:04:34.399
A parking garage, right, Yeah, parking garage at least a

85
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:37.720
four story one. And then you know, you know the

86
00:04:37.759 --> 00:04:41.040
capital city here in this state, you go out there

87
00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:43.319
at night, it's dangerous. I do.

88
00:04:43.480 --> 00:04:45.519
I go all the time to the baseball games and

89
00:04:45.519 --> 00:04:48.800
stuff in downtown. Yeah, it's if you're if you're law

90
00:04:48.879 --> 00:04:52.079
alone at night late. I can see where it'd be concerning.

91
00:04:52.160 --> 00:04:56.480
Yeah, and you know, there's quite a bit of shootings

92
00:04:56.560 --> 00:05:00.720
up there. Uh and so yeah, well you could see

93
00:05:00.759 --> 00:05:02.879
this being like a dangerous far town to be in

94
00:05:02.920 --> 00:05:05.639
a night by yourself. She said it was a ghost

95
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:09.639
town usually, but that big of a parking garage, it's

96
00:05:09.639 --> 00:05:12.680
definitely a bigger town. And she's just used to being

97
00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:16.160
a big city, so she kind of let her guard

98
00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:20.279
down there bit. And it's definitely not something you want

99
00:05:20.279 --> 00:05:23.439
to do. It is scary, and that could definitely this

100
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.240
definitely seems like a real story to hill.

101
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:28.160
With the homeless people. Yeah, they probably are some there,

102
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:31.079
sure that I just can't get over. I guess the

103
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:34.319
person's standing there. And she she's very well aware though

104
00:05:34.399 --> 00:05:38.160
that how bad of a situation this is beforehand, So it's.

105
00:05:38.040 --> 00:05:40.600
Yeah, she was creeped out beforehand, before she even heard

106
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:41.360
these sounds.

107
00:05:41.480 --> 00:05:43.160
And she brings up which which was what I was

108
00:05:43.240 --> 00:05:46.120
just thinking, even about the security cameras a comment she made,

109
00:05:46.120 --> 00:05:48.079
what was it again that those are only going to

110
00:05:48.160 --> 00:05:48.639
be good.

111
00:05:48.519 --> 00:05:52.800
After after you've been abducted, and yeah, and then there's

112
00:05:52.839 --> 00:05:53.959
only so much help.

113
00:05:54.879 --> 00:05:57.040
Yeah, there's not somebody usually just sitting at a parking

114
00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.639
garage security camera. I would assume so. And I don't

115
00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:02.120
know how tall it was. I don't know. The fourth

116
00:06:02.120 --> 00:06:04.639
floor is the highest. You're far away down from the

117
00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:06.600
people working on the first floor letting you in and out.

118
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:08.160
If there's somebody there doing that.

119
00:06:08.519 --> 00:06:11.120
Yeah, they're not gonna hear anything. Go on up there,

120
00:06:11.519 --> 00:06:12.360
make what you say next?

121
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:14.240
Up power being a parking garage here in the next

122
00:06:14.240 --> 00:06:18.399
couple months, goo to some baseball games in Indianapolis, watching

123
00:06:18.439 --> 00:06:20.199
the Indians, and I'm gonna think of that.

124
00:06:20.759 --> 00:06:23.319
Oh yeah, we're gonna we're gonna be up there for

125
00:06:23.360 --> 00:06:24.519
a convention in August.

126
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:28.800
So yeah, cosplay convention. Yep, Well that's even scary. You

127
00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:29.959
don't know what you're gonna get into.

128
00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:33.600
Yeah, you won't know terror until you see a person

129
00:06:33.680 --> 00:06:35.720
dressed up as an anime character coming at you.

130
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:39.160
Yeah, Knights, All jokes aside. It seemed like they'd probably

131
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:39.800
done this before.

132
00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:44.680
Definitely definitely seemed like something that they had had success with.

133
00:06:45.639 --> 00:06:50.600
Playing this audio. That seems like someone has deliberately been

134
00:06:50.639 --> 00:06:56.600
planning this, probably done it before and gotten away with it,

135
00:06:57.000 --> 00:06:59.199
which is the real terrifying thing, because these people still

136
00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:03.920
got away. She just lost them. Now they're still out

137
00:07:03.959 --> 00:07:10.240
there Jeff Townsend.

138
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.639
Media sees you good night, and the question is do

139
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:15.879
I stay here? Will you be back?

140
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:18.480
Are you gonna come back?

141
00:07:19.199 --> 00:07:20.399
Will you be back?

142
00:07:21.199 --> 00:07:22.360
Are you coming back?
