1
00:00:05.120 --> 00:00:06.519
Well, man, we'll let you pick it back.
2
00:00:06.440 --> 00:00:11.880
Up all right. Things had escalvated pretty quickly from there.
3
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:16.519
The pounding and threats had continued every night. She had
4
00:00:16.519 --> 00:00:18.719
been too scared to sleep in her bedroom and had
5
00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:22.320
started sleeping in the living room couch. Then one night
6
00:00:22.399 --> 00:00:26.000
the pounding had begun not just on her bedroom closet,
7
00:00:26.320 --> 00:00:29.559
but all the closet doors in the house, all at
8
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.079
the same time, like there were people and all of
9
00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:34.280
them trying to get all at once. She told us
10
00:00:35.039 --> 00:00:37.719
it was the same voice in every closet, that same
11
00:00:38.000 --> 00:00:42.560
horrible voice. In fear, she nailed all the closet doors
12
00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:47.039
shut to keep the thing, whatever it was, from going
13
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:50.119
out to get her. Then, about two weeks ago, something
14
00:00:50.159 --> 00:00:53.479
even more terrifying had happened. She had been in her
15
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.520
bathroom and was washing her hands in a sink when
16
00:00:56.520 --> 00:01:00.000
she looked up into the medicine cabinet mirror. She popped.
17
00:01:00.520 --> 00:01:04.319
What'd you see your asked her. I saw it, she said,
18
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.319
in a choked whimper. I saw his face instead of
19
00:01:07.359 --> 00:01:10.519
my own. He was wearing a black robe with a
20
00:01:10.599 --> 00:01:13.920
hood and its face. His face was just a grinning skull,
21
00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:18.239
a skull with horns. His eyes were red the eyes
22
00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:21.200
of the devil himself. I don't mean I saw it
23
00:01:21.200 --> 00:01:24.079
standing behind me in the mirror. It was in the
24
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:28.560
mirror itself. I felt to shiver crawl up my spine.
25
00:01:29.040 --> 00:01:31.560
It reached out of the mirror. It didn't have hands,
26
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.799
it was like claws, and it tried to grab me
27
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:38.120
in horror. She had thrown a bottle of lotion at
28
00:01:38.120 --> 00:01:41.959
the mirror, shattering glass. Then, to be safe, had done
29
00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:44.200
the same to all the other mirrors in the house.
30
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:46.640
How could you stay in his house with all that
31
00:01:46.640 --> 00:01:50.400
has happened to you, asked her. She shrugged sadly. I
32
00:01:50.439 --> 00:01:53.319
don't have anywhere else to go, and no one will
33
00:01:53.359 --> 00:01:56.599
take me in. The nights were awful. It was always
34
00:01:56.640 --> 00:01:59.239
better during the days. At least then I could get
35
00:01:59.239 --> 00:02:03.079
some sleep. It always stopped by morning and never happened
36
00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:08.039
during the day, She suddenly shuddered. Until three days ago.
37
00:02:08.199 --> 00:02:12.000
Then it started happening all the time, day and night.
38
00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:15.400
I was safe no matter what time it was. It
39
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:19.919
all come to a head late this morning. Pounding had gradually
40
00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:23.280
gotten more violent and forceful, until all the closet doors
41
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:27.039
were rattling in their frames. SCAREDY knew that you went
42
00:02:27.240 --> 00:02:29.479
boards nailed over them. It's only a matter of time
43
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:33.039
till that thing broke through. In desperation, she was gained
44
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:36.199
praying and reading from the Bible, which had only caused
45
00:02:36.199 --> 00:02:40.280
the entity in the closet to laugh at her mockingly. Finally,
46
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:43.759
she had gotten out Bill's shotgun and fired it through
47
00:02:43.759 --> 00:02:46.840
the closet door. For a minute or so, there wasn't
48
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:50.080
a sound. She told us, I sort of think it
49
00:02:50.159 --> 00:02:54.280
was finally over. Then I saw those red eyes burning
50
00:02:54.319 --> 00:02:57.479
in the dark and the hole the shotgun had made.
51
00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:01.280
It chuckled and it said one word to me. Well,
52
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:05.120
what to say? I asked her? Tonight, she said, began
53
00:03:05.159 --> 00:03:07.400
to tremble. She lowered her head into her hands and
54
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:10.800
began to sob again. Jerry and I were silent for
55
00:03:10.840 --> 00:03:14.039
some time, trying to absorb what she had just told us.
56
00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:17.560
We looked at each other, deeply troubled by her story.
57
00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:20.719
Neither of us actually believed it, of course, but it
58
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:24.039
was obvious the poor woman was deeply disturbed. If she
59
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:27.520
was having some kind of nervous breakdown, maybe her afraid
60
00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:31.080
grip on reality had finally snapped. Maybe it was old
61
00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:34.080
age was taking a toll on her. Mind. One thing
62
00:03:34.199 --> 00:03:37.159
was clear. It wasn't safe for her to be alone anymore,
63
00:03:37.639 --> 00:03:40.840
especially not here. It was not healthy for her. Hell,
64
00:03:41.280 --> 00:03:44.120
for all we knew, maybe her paranoid delusions were her
65
00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:46.759
result of some dangerous form a mold that had formed
66
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:51.520
in the house. Jerry and I excused ourselves for a moment,
67
00:03:51.800 --> 00:03:54.919
then stepped outside and talking brightly, we both agreed she
68
00:03:55.000 --> 00:03:59.080
needed help, she needed to be institutionalized, but for now
69
00:03:59.599 --> 00:04:02.960
it was she stays somewhere else. Went back in and
70
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:05.639
told missus Garrett she was coming with us. She was
71
00:04:05.680 --> 00:04:07.840
going to spend the night in a hotel room in
72
00:04:07.919 --> 00:04:11.639
town and tomorrow, Jerry added, we were going to find it.
73
00:04:11.800 --> 00:04:14.680
He so it come exercises free evil spirit. They've been
74
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:16.680
bothering her, Getting rid of it once and for all.
75
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:20.040
She broke down again, this time crying and relief, and
76
00:04:20.120 --> 00:04:23.639
hugged me and my partner, thankingness over and over again.
77
00:04:24.879 --> 00:04:28.879
Well she's finally getting the help that she needs. Sounds like, Yeah,
78
00:04:28.920 --> 00:04:31.079
it sounds like they're they're really trying to get her,
79
00:04:31.279 --> 00:04:34.399
like can some sort of institution. They're going to try
80
00:04:34.439 --> 00:04:39.199
to hold her someplace overnight. That's what it seems like
81
00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:42.399
to me. That they're not really believing this story, but
82
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:47.360
her story is terrifying, and if it's you are remotely true,
83
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:49.000
this is a night Mercenari.
84
00:04:49.639 --> 00:04:51.839
Yeah, it sounds like this is actually later in the day.
85
00:04:52.480 --> 00:04:55.480
All this is transpiring, All this is happening, and like
86
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:57.920
you said, get her to a hotel and excuse me,
87
00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:00.639
get her to a motel until the next day when
88
00:05:00.680 --> 00:05:03.680
they can get her help wherever that may be. I
89
00:05:03.759 --> 00:05:06.399
think it's a previous section that you read when he
90
00:05:06.439 --> 00:05:09.839
said what the fuck happened here? You really start to
91
00:05:10.079 --> 00:05:13.360
like put all the puzzle pieces together as far as
92
00:05:13.399 --> 00:05:15.959
how crazy of a state this house is in.
93
00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:21.959
Yeah, the disarray and like all these boards up dw worse,
94
00:05:22.199 --> 00:05:25.360
Like that's something that would be crazy to walk into.
95
00:05:26.160 --> 00:05:28.519
She looks in the mirror. She sees a I don't
96
00:05:28.519 --> 00:05:29.639
know how to describing a monster.
97
00:05:30.720 --> 00:05:34.439
Yeah, it looks like a skeletal monster of some sort
98
00:05:34.959 --> 00:05:37.480
and reaching out to or from the mirror, not so
99
00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:40.639
much its behind her. She describes it as being within
100
00:05:40.839 --> 00:05:41.319
the mirror.
101
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:43.639
We've all seen that in a movie or had that fear,
102
00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:45.319
like we're gonna look in the mirror and like something
103
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.279
else is like not even behind you, but it's like
104
00:05:47.319 --> 00:05:50.319
they're in the mirror, you know. Yeah, and so she
105
00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:52.720
breaks the mirror that she goes around and she destroys
106
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:53.839
all the other mirrors in the house.
107
00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:56.839
Yeah, she breaks them all that day. And so like
108
00:05:57.000 --> 00:06:02.160
there's all these broken mirrors, there's glass something around, and so,
109
00:06:02.480 --> 00:06:05.439
like I said, he has definitely started to see like, ah,
110
00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:09.360
this is we got ourselves a problem here. It's very
111
00:06:09.480 --> 00:06:13.120
much she is in you know, she could be endangering herself.
112
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.519
She needs to be taken care of. And it's a
113
00:06:16.639 --> 00:06:20.519
really scary moment if there was nothing supernatural going on.
114
00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:22.879
Because this old woman who you've been like kind of
115
00:06:22.920 --> 00:06:26.000
taking care of sort of by going and visiting her
116
00:06:26.120 --> 00:06:29.959
during her calls and you know, just like calming down
117
00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:33.519
every time, and then you see her in this state.
118
00:06:33.879 --> 00:06:35.920
It's a scary moment for you, right because you got
119
00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.240
to be like thinking, how are we going to take
120
00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:41.160
care of her? Now? You know, we got to something's
121
00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:45.000
gonna happen. Just that alone, you can you can imagine
122
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:48.600
there their way they felt in this moment. But the
123
00:06:48.680 --> 00:06:52.800
way she's feeling with all that she's claiming to see,
124
00:06:53.079 --> 00:06:54.839
that's that's the craziest thing ever.
125
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:58.920
Yeah, So what began is calling at the closet door.
126
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.240
Is now pass in every closet door throughout the house.
127
00:07:02.800 --> 00:07:05.079
She's actually concerned that the pounding is so hard it's
128
00:07:05.120 --> 00:07:10.560
gonna break through the boards. She began praying and reading
129
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:12.639
the Bible. I guess this made this entity is We're
130
00:07:12.639 --> 00:07:16.839
gonna call it laugh. It was mocking her. Finally she
131
00:07:17.439 --> 00:07:20.160
got the shotgun and fired it through the closet door.
132
00:07:20.360 --> 00:07:22.279
This entity was mocking her.
133
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:27.160
Yes, so after it started making forever, she shot at
134
00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:31.680
it and then saw those eyes within the darkness.
135
00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:34.439
So like she walked up to the door, she was
136
00:07:34.480 --> 00:07:36.920
seeing these eyes in there through the holes.
137
00:07:37.240 --> 00:07:39.800
I'm going sure how close she got, but she definitely
138
00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:40.759
kind of appeerid.
139
00:07:40.839 --> 00:07:45.160
So through the shotgun holes she could see these red eyes. Yeah, yes,
140
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:47.959
that's absolutely terrifying. Wow.
141
00:07:48.879 --> 00:07:50.199
And then it said tonight.
142
00:07:50.920 --> 00:07:56.160
It said tonight. So they relieve her of this tress
143
00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:59.480
and said we're gonna get you help. They have a
144
00:07:59.480 --> 00:08:03.480
sidebark conversation. Hey, she she's no longer able to say
145
00:08:03.519 --> 00:08:05.600
care of herself. This is that she's a huge risk
146
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:08.600
to herself. This situation is a bad situation. They're going
147
00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:10.879
to remove her from the situation and like we when
148
00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.519
we just started this discussion right here, They're going to
149
00:08:13.560 --> 00:08:15.560
get her help. Man, you still feel so sorry for
150
00:08:15.680 --> 00:08:16.560
being all alone, you know?
151
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:25.319
Oh yeah, definitely. Jeff Townsend media sees you good night.
152
00:08:26.160 --> 00:08:28.600
And the question is do I stay here? Will you
153
00:08:28.680 --> 00:08:31.920
be back? Are you gonna come back?
154
00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:33.799
Will you be back?
155
00:08:34.639 --> 00:08:35.799
Are you coming back
