0:58
Mr. Food. I'm
1:03
gonna
1:06
kill you. Well hello
1:08
and welcome to another edition of Freaky
1:10
Friday. It is Friday, June 26th and
1:12
we're here to tell you're son of
1:14
a bitch. For
1:18
I think we should just tell everyone what's been
1:20
happening for the past 20 minutes. Because
1:23
that is technically the son of a
1:25
bitch is warranted. This
1:28
is like the fourth time we tried to
1:30
start. We had software glitches. I even had
1:32
a great new intro because I've tried three
1:34
different intros now. But since this is the
1:36
fourth time. But I will say because we
1:39
thank you to everybody who's been watching our
1:41
stuff on YouTube. We really appreciate it meeting
1:43
you over there for streams and stuff. And
1:45
it's cool because YouTube pushes you to people
1:47
who have never seen you before. And
1:49
then you get YouTube comments and we
1:51
got one today. Oh no, don't tell me. Is it
1:53
Christy looks like a ghoul? Not at
1:55
all. You're a beautiful phenomenal person. And if
1:57
anyone said that I would find out where they lived and I would.
2:00
Well, that's very sweet. But sometimes I
2:02
watch them back and I'm like, I
2:04
could have thrown on some mascara. So.
2:06
No, no. You could just tell where
2:08
like, I'm so white without makeup that
2:10
you can't tell where things end and
2:12
begin. You
2:14
know? That's not what
2:17
this person was concerned about. This person was
2:19
concerned about Sir Garth or Brooks, the
2:21
gargoyle statue above my head. She
2:24
wrote, or they wrote, what in
2:26
the world is that ghoulish statue
2:28
with wings? Satan, question mark. Satan?
2:31
Satan? Satan? I don't
2:33
normally read the comments, but it was about
2:36
Sir Garth or Brooks. So I just wanted
2:38
to share that. It's not Satan. If you
2:40
watch us on YouTube, he is a garden
2:42
gargoyle that we purchased because of
2:45
Freaky Friday. So I thought it was appropriate to
2:47
address that comment here on Freaky Friday, which was
2:49
Sir Garth's origin story. I was like, I swear,
2:51
I'll buy that statue right now. I thought it
2:53
was a live stream. It was Freaky Friday. Freaky
2:56
Friday is where we got the idea, and then we
2:58
bought it, and we, I. I
3:03
feel like I'm his stepmom. He
3:05
doesn't live with me, though. He's another step-ful
3:07
parent. Yeah, that's great. But
3:09
then on a live stream, I wanted
3:12
to, you were on your way over
3:14
here, and I was like, I'm going to come bring this
3:16
gargoyle in and surprise her once you walk in. So
3:19
I took it off the porch and brought it inside.
3:21
So it is not Satan. Yeah, no, he needs to be
3:23
seen all the time, not just if you're going
3:26
to your front door. From a
3:28
perspective of a stranger, it
3:31
does look like Satan. So she's not wrong. No,
3:33
it does. It's not an out-of-pocket question. No, it
3:36
could be Satan. No comment
3:38
about the fuck-mouth moon beside it? No, she
3:40
was like, well, obviously, you're going to have
3:42
a sexual moon. That makes sense. But is
3:44
that the devil next to you? It's not.
3:47
He's, by the way, royalty. Sir Garth or Brooks,
3:49
he's been knighted by us. I
3:53
just wanted to address that here at the top.
3:55
It is a gargoyle, not the devil. That's
3:59
what we do here. on Friggy Friday is
4:01
tell your odd but true stories and
4:03
no gargoyles today, but it does run
4:05
the gamut from very serious brushes with
4:07
true crime all the
4:09
way to a Bigfoot mention. Yeah, and then
4:12
a crime we've
4:14
probably all experienced at
4:16
the end. Yes, yes, yes,
4:18
a very relatable one to
4:20
take us out in the bubble part of
4:23
our haunted house. Yes, of
4:25
our bubble pit, our bubble farm pit. Of our bubble
4:27
pit. Well, we kept saying we need a bubble pit
4:29
because it's hot as hell here and it's probably hot
4:31
as hell wherever y'all are listening from, I guess, unless
4:34
you're in Australia, in which case take me with you.
4:36
But to get out of that, we're gonna just leave
4:38
town. I'm leaving town in a couple weeks, I'm outta
4:40
here. Can I come? Yes, you
4:42
can come with me. Thank you. I'm going to
4:44
Cincinnati. Okay. So, in that we're in 30 Rock,
4:48
everybody wants to go, everybody wants to
4:50
go. It was Cleveland. Cleveland, okay. Which
4:53
we're going to after Cincinnati. So, meet
4:55
me in Cincinnati. Then meet me in
4:57
Cleveland. And then we're going
4:59
straight on to Toronto. If you wonder where we're
5:01
going and why we're going there, it's to escape
5:03
this hellhole that we live in called Texas, but
5:06
also to bring our full moon energy touring show
5:08
to you, wonderful
5:10
people of Ohio and Canada. So, single town
5:12
in Canada, but we're going there. It's a
5:15
big one. It's one of my favorite cities
5:17
that I've ever visited though. So, I'm so
5:19
excited to go back. I haven't been back
5:21
since our last tour, which
5:24
was a totally different show. This show
5:26
is brand. I mean, you may have seen it last
5:29
year when we toured it. However, we've edited and
5:31
added a lot of stuff. So, I
5:33
would say a good 30% of it is new stuff. So,
5:38
even if you saw it last year,
5:40
come back out because it's
5:42
always such a fun time. And it's
5:44
everything you love about the podcast, but
5:47
centered around the moon. We
5:49
talk about cryptids, creepy
5:52
stuff, lore, what
5:55
really happened up there with the
5:57
Apollo astronauts, the
5:59
how some people... don't even think we ever
6:01
really landed on the moon. So it's a good
6:03
time. What's inside of it?
6:05
We'll tell you. And if you hit it, does
6:07
it ring? I'll just tell you, it's cheese. Cheese
6:10
and chocolate. Yeah, it's like a truffly
6:12
center with also. Yeah, and we moved there. That's
6:15
a very deep cut joke that
6:18
some people will get and be like, that was
6:20
a good joke. And other people are like, what?
6:22
Although that album was called, I believe, Chocolate and
6:24
Cheese. But nonetheless, we
6:26
are here. We're
6:28
going to be there. We're going to be there talking to
6:30
you about the moon. If you want to know more, go
6:32
to sinisterhead.com/live shows. But you're not here to talk about us
6:35
on the road, although please come see us because we want to
6:37
see you. We want to tell your
6:39
odd but true stories that you have also
6:41
painstakingly written out and taken the time to
6:43
send to us today. So thanks for doing
6:45
that. Thank you so much. Well,
6:47
I'm Christy. I'm Heather. And
6:49
let's get freaky. This
6:52
first one is a heavy hitter.
6:54
There's a content warning of familicide
6:56
and attempted suicide. This
6:58
is from your daughter. Hello,
7:01
anonymous. And the subject
7:03
line is, my mom took
7:05
AP classes with a family annihilator.
7:09
Anonymous writes, hey, Heather
7:11
and Christy, I hope you guys are doing
7:13
well. My mom and I love your podcast.
7:15
And we can't wait to see you again
7:18
in San Diego in September. I
7:20
could go on and on about how
7:22
funny, insightful, and soothing we find your
7:24
guys' conversations. But that would take forever.
7:27
So without further ado, let's get into it.
7:30
My mom went to high school in Kenmore, New
7:32
York, a white picket fence town in Buffalo.
7:35
I love visiting there because it's safe
7:37
and peaceful. Everything there is just so
7:40
safe and normal, or at
7:42
least it seems to be. It's
7:44
the kind of place where nothing bad ever
7:46
seems to happen. We've all heard that one
7:48
before, right? Now despite
7:51
our mutual love of true crime, my
7:53
mom neglected to tell me this story
7:55
until recently. Somehow she'd
7:57
just forgotten to ever bring it up.
7:59
up. One day as we
8:02
were visiting my grandparents and walking by her
8:04
old high school of Kenmore West she said
8:06
to me, did I ever tell
8:08
you about John Justice? Uh,
8:11
no. I said. I thought
8:13
she was going to tell me about some comic
8:16
book character or something. I mean with a name
8:18
like John Justice that's what she would imagine, right?
8:21
Well then my mom said, he was a guy
8:23
I went to high school with who killed his
8:25
whole family. Do the
8:28
record scratch. What? Uh,
8:30
no. I screeched. My
8:33
mom then began to tell me her
8:35
story and it's one that most definitely
8:37
qualifies as a brush with true crime.
8:41
In 1985, my mom's senior year of
8:43
high school, one of her fellow classmates
8:45
was a boy named John Justice. Since
8:48
Kenmore is small, the same group of smart
8:50
kids were in the same AP classes since
8:53
freshman year. My mom and John
8:55
Justice were two of those smart seniors. They
8:57
had sat near each other in their AP classes
8:59
for the past four years. On
9:02
September 16th, John walked
9:04
home after school and brutally murdered
9:06
all three of his immediate family
9:09
members. He stabbed his mother,
9:11
his father, and his younger brother. He
9:13
was only 13 years old to death.
9:16
Afterwards, when his suicide attempt failed, he
9:19
got into his parents car and fled
9:21
the scene. Devastatingly, John's
9:23
crime was only discovered after he
9:25
got into a fatal car crash
9:27
while driving away from his house.
9:30
The crash claimed the life of one of
9:32
John's neighbors who was only 22 years old
9:34
at the time. This brought
9:36
the total number of lives stolen by
9:38
John that day to four. John
9:41
survived the crash and stood trial for
9:43
the murders in 1986. He was found
9:45
not guilty by reason of insanity for
9:47
the murders of his father and his
9:49
brother and guilty of manslaughter for
9:52
the murders of his mother and his neighbor.
9:55
John was released from prison in 2005 on parole,
9:57
but quickly re-arrested to
10:00
his quote, erratic and disturbing
10:02
behavior. He has been
10:04
denied parole ever since and has been
10:07
deemed quote, mentally unfit for release. Back
10:10
in 1986 though, my mom
10:12
was her high school's yearbook editor. She
10:15
remembers going through the senior classes yearbook
10:17
photos and having to decide whether or
10:20
not to include John's picture in the
10:22
yearbook. She didn't. Thankfully
10:24
justice was served in this case. I
10:26
had to make the pun, sorry. Though
10:29
the pain John caused can never be
10:31
healed, his incarceration prevents anyone else from
10:33
being harmed by his actions. I
10:36
hope my mom's brush with true crime was an
10:38
interesting read for you, whether or not you read
10:40
it on an episode. Thank you so
10:42
much for reading and we'll see you in September. Keep
10:45
it creepy. Well,
10:48
anonymous, this article is
10:50
from 1985, talking
10:53
about the incident and it's
10:55
something like that, especially when like
10:58
anonymous's mom was going
11:00
to school with him to know that he just left school
11:02
one day and that was the day did. And
11:04
the article had said he had been planning it for a long
11:06
time and that seemed like it was
11:08
centered around their mocking of his college
11:11
dreams is what he said. Yes, the
11:13
article says quote, his parents
11:15
were quote, constantly put him down
11:17
for wanting a college education. He'd
11:20
been thinking of killing them for two
11:22
years according to a detective on the
11:24
case. So I guess
11:27
one day he just finally
11:29
snapped. That's, it's
11:32
awful. I would be curious to
11:34
know why he received manslaughter
11:39
for two of the murders and then first
11:42
degree for the other ones. What would
11:44
be the difference in those? Some
11:48
states depending manslaughter can
11:50
be like heat of passion, you
11:52
can argue it's voluntary versus involuntary.
11:56
The grades of murder and stuff vary and they may
11:58
have changed since the 80s as well. but
12:01
it also is interesting that if he
12:03
was found in GBRIs, we
12:05
call it not guilty by reason of insanity that
12:07
he would ever have been paroled if
12:10
immediately he was having erratic and disturbing
12:13
behavior. That doesn't seem like he should have been
12:15
let out. Normally when that happens, somebody is assessed
12:18
once a year every year and they say, oh yes,
12:20
you're a danger. You're not still a danger, but I'm
12:23
glad that he has been denied parole. If,
12:25
you know, the first time he was out,
12:27
he was showing that and if they are
12:29
still evaluating him every year, it sounds like
12:31
they're keeping tabs on it, but it's a
12:33
curious thing to have that be the explanation.
12:35
It seems sort of simplistic and that's what
12:37
he said, but if he was found not
12:39
guilty by reason of insanity, I imagine there's
12:41
a lot more factors at play. Yes,
12:44
I'm rereading it now and I misspoke. He
12:46
was found not guilty by reason of insanity
12:48
for the murders of his father and his
12:50
brother, the guilty of
12:52
manslaughter for his mother
12:54
and his neighbor. Yeah, the
12:57
neighbor manslaughter is pretty cut and dry,
13:00
but I imagine for the mom,
13:02
if there's an argument of, oh, you know, she
13:04
said something, like you said, you just snapped, that's
13:06
often the argument you try to use is,
13:08
oh, you know, I didn't know what I was doing. More
13:11
often it's used of, I walked in on my
13:14
spouse cheating on me or I walked in on
13:16
someone attacking my family member, my kid or something,
13:19
but it sounds like it
13:21
was successful in this case, but that is an
13:23
eerie thing for your mom and we don't often
13:25
think about that afterwards of something
13:27
a simple thing, like we don't wanna put him in the
13:29
yearbook, right? You know, this is- Yeah,
13:33
that's a hard call to make. One that
13:36
I think shouldn't have fallen to your mom. She
13:38
shouldn't have had to make that decision as a
13:40
senior in high school. Somebody else could have, the
13:43
principal or something perhaps, but that
13:46
is, it's that
13:48
trickle of trauma that like even kids in
13:51
his class to, you know, I'm sure he
13:53
had friends at school and
13:55
then like how it affects you going forward
13:58
to know that for four years, been
14:00
in this guy's classes and then
14:03
one day he just snapped. It
14:05
seems, and I'm surprised like you said,
14:07
that he got parole because the investigation showed
14:09
he'd been planning this for two years. So
14:12
I would think that that
14:14
would have been off the table for a while. Yeah,
14:17
it sounds like they
14:19
changed their tune there pretty quickly and I'm glad
14:21
that they did so before he hurt anybody else.
14:23
Yeah. Well, thank
14:25
you so much, Anonymous, for sending that in. Sinisterhood
14:30
will be right back. Do
14:33
you ever smell something and it just transports you
14:35
back to a certain time in your life? Yeah,
14:37
it makes you want to have like a fruity
14:39
drink on the... One thing
14:41
that's doing that for me right now
14:44
is OC's, Undaria Algae Body Oil. It
14:47
smells like summer y'all. It's
14:49
bottled summer. Somebody finally, everybody's talking about
14:51
lightning in a bottle, but we don't
14:53
talk about summer in a bottle enough
14:56
and that's what this is. It's all
14:58
natural, has notes of mango, mandarin, grapefruit,
15:00
lime, cypress. I love the cypress in
15:03
there because it gives it kind of
15:05
like an herbal smell which just balances
15:07
everything out. It's not too fruity, it's
15:10
not too sweet, it's like perfect.
15:12
And the way it feels on your skin.
15:15
Ooh, Lordy. It goes
15:17
on smooth and makes you feel just
15:19
like good. You know, you just
15:21
like, I feel good, I
15:24
look good. Everything looks like oiled. I feel like
15:26
I have a glow about me and I smell
15:28
good too. And right now you can

15:38
I already loved OC, I loved some of their
15:40
face stuff and I was so excited to also
15:42
try the Undaria Algae Body Oil and it makes
15:44
you, my Paris first of all was like, oh,
15:47
did you change your lotion? I was like,
15:49
yes, I am extra smooth because I saw
15:51
on social media people love this product already
15:53
and recommended putting it on straight out of
15:55
the shower without even kind of drying off
15:57
too much. And I thought, I
15:59
couldn't. possibly do that. But with this OC
16:01
and Daria Algae Body Oil, I'm like, I
16:04
can, I can be glowing and I can
16:06
be smooth. And plus it is a women
16:08
founded and led business and I feel good
16:10
about this. We love that. We love women
16:12
founded. I love anything that improves skin elasticity,
16:15
moisturizes, leaving me silky and soft
16:17
and smells good. Those are all
16:19
boxes that I would like to
16:21
have ticked. And I'm usually, I'm
16:23
picky about oils because sometimes they're
16:25
greasy. This one is not greasy
16:28
at all. And it's clinically proven
16:30
to instantly improve skin
16:32
elasticity and visibly firms
16:34
and makes your skin feel more sculpted
16:37
and toned, which nobody's
16:39
ever complaining about that. Not
16:41
at all. It's a sexy, good smelling, good
16:43
feeling stuff. So if you want to get
16:46
on the OC bandwagon with us, get
16:48
healthy, glowing skin for summer with clean
16:50
vegan skin and body care from OC.

17:10
next one is from Leb on
17:12
behalf of Leb's uncle and the
17:14
subject line is, carjacking, kidnapping, drunk
17:17
guy, situation. Hello
17:19
ladies, here's a story I dragged out of
17:21
my uncle. So a few
17:23
weeks ago, I was driving east about 10
17:25
miles past Pagosa Springs, Colorado, when I saw
17:28
a huge cloud of dust and then a
17:30
car rolling across the highway a couple hundred
17:32
yards in front of me. The
17:34
car went off the shoulder and back onto
17:37
the road again, going sideways and immediately rolled
17:39
three times into the ditch on my side
17:41
of the road. The car
17:43
was upside down, four wheels up. I
17:47
immediately pulled off the road, hit the emergency
17:49
flashers and called 911 to report the
17:52
accident. Incredulously, a man
17:54
climbed out of the overturned
17:56
vehicle and jumped into my
17:58
passenger seat. I said I
18:00
had 911 on the line and asked if he wanted to
18:02
talk to them. But he grabbed
18:04
my phone, ended the call, swung
18:07
his arm square across my chest, and
18:09
said, just drive or I'll break your
18:11
neck. Assessing my
18:13
situation, I asked him where he wanted to go.
18:16
At that point, he just wanted me to drive faster
18:18
and kept telling me to pass the cars and trucks
18:21
ahead of us. I
18:23
started to make small talk at first, hoping
18:25
he'd calm down. Are you hurt? I
18:28
asked him, where do you want to go? It
18:30
was obvious he had been drinking and was in
18:32
full fight or flight mode. I
18:35
let him talk and let him know I'd help, so he wouldn't
18:37
think of me as a threat. He said
18:39
his name was Terry, which turned out to be a
18:41
fake name, so not sure how much
18:43
he told me was actually true. He
18:46
eventually volunteered he had been sober three
18:48
years, but started drinking again a few
18:50
days ago. He still
18:52
had my phone, but I asked if there
18:54
was anyone he wanted to call, a sponsor
18:56
or somebody else. He said he
18:58
had been in a mental facility, but had just
19:00
packed up everything and split. He
19:03
mumbled about quitting an $80,000 a
19:05
year job and how his life was a mess
19:07
and everything he had was back in the car
19:09
that he had just rolled over and abandoned. I
19:12
was reluctant to go back because it would be
19:15
out of my way, but
19:17
I finally turned around and he offered
19:19
to pay for gas and he suggested
19:21
I tell anyone who asked that I
19:23
quote, offered him a ride. He
19:25
seemed to have calmed down and now trusted me. A
19:28
few minutes later, the state police pulled me over.
19:31
The officer on the scene went to the
19:34
passenger side and said he pulled us over
19:36
because there was a bolo, beyond the lookout,
19:38
for a sprinter van fitting my RV's description
19:40
that left the scene of an accident. The
19:44
officer smelled alcohol and asked about drinking.
19:47
Terry said he'd had one or two drinks. I
19:50
said none. I hesitated to blurt
19:52
out the situation with only one officer on
19:54
the scene, not knowing what Terry was capable
19:56
of doing. For some
19:59
reason, the officer just left us alone
20:01
for a good half hour, while another
20:03
cruiser or two pulled up, another state
20:05
trooper, and a local deputy
20:07
sheriff's car. All the while,
20:09
my kidnapper was wanting to know what I'd
20:11
say to the police. I
20:13
just said, it depends what they ask. By
20:16
this time, there were four or five officers
20:19
on the scene, apparently discussing what to do
20:21
next. I guess they were conferring with
20:23
police on the scene of the accident, 50 miles away
20:26
near Pagosa Springs, that were trying
20:28
to gather information from the overturned
20:30
vehicle. I kept saying,
20:32
I wonder what's taking them so long? And
20:34
finally, even though I know you're not supposed
20:36
to exit your vehicle after being pulled over,
20:39
I jumped out and quickly told the paroleman on
20:41
my side of the car the situation. By
20:44
the time I turned around, the
20:46
other officers already had Terry cuffed.
20:49
Terry was arrested with several
20:51
charges, including kidnapping. I
20:53
think it's funny, an old man can be
20:55
quote, kidnapped. Thanks for
20:58
reading nephew lab. Oh,
21:01
you got kidnapped. You got that's
21:03
napped. Dude, you just pull over thinking,
21:05
oh my gosh, I mean, we I've done this. I've been
21:07
on a road trip and saw a crash and my brother-in-law
21:09
was driving was like, I'm going to go up there and
21:11
see if everything's okay. And
21:14
thank God that it wasn't a driver that
21:16
jumped out and was like, just fucking drive
21:18
or I'll break your neck. That's so scary.
21:20
It reminds me of the minnuso we did
21:22
about Margie Palm, that instinct
21:24
that your uncle lab
21:27
had to just remain calm, ask
21:29
questions, not panic to kind of
21:31
gain the trust of the perpetrator,
21:34
which in Margie's case, luckily worked
21:36
out for her and in your
21:38
uncle's case worked out for him.
21:41
But that is, um, it
21:44
takes us, it's a skill to, to
21:46
keep your cool in a situation like
21:48
this. So he goes to your uncle.
21:51
He sounds like, um, somebody
21:53
you want in your corner when the
21:55
shit hits the fan. Yeah, right. It's
21:57
like realizing, okay, this person is in flight.
22:00
fight or flight, they're freaking out. If I
22:02
make myself a resource for them, then they won't
22:04
see me as a threat. And he just said
22:06
he was going to break my neck. It's like,
22:08
I'll drive you anywhere. What about back to my
22:10
car? Oh, that's kind of out of my way.
22:13
Yes, there was an LOL in there. So I
22:15
think he obviously knew that that was silly. It
22:18
is a bit wild that they just left
22:21
y'all in the car for a half hour,
22:23
but also for your uncle to
22:25
be like a half hour of
22:27
sitting there with this person that you're like, I
22:29
don't know what this guy, does he have a
22:32
weapon? I don't know. Again, cool
22:34
as ice, this guy. Yeah. He's just like, wait
22:36
it out, wait for your moment. And then when
22:38
you see it's time to jump out and grab
22:41
the patrolman, you're like, this person is
22:43
kidnapped me and I didn't know how to tell you,
22:45
but you should probably put some handcuffs on him. And
22:47
the patrolman's like, what? Also,
22:49
I am so sorry for leaving you for
22:51
a half hour in the car with him
22:53
then. Exactly. Yeah.
22:55
I don't want to pull you
22:59
over and be like, we were on a bolo for
23:01
your vehicle and
23:03
it's like, oh no, I have been hunted by
23:05
the police. But in this case, you're like, yes,
23:07
please pull me over. Absolutely. I'm like, I'm a
23:09
speed, I'm going to run a red light, whatever
23:11
it takes for you to pull me over. I
23:13
think about that. I think it was from like,
23:16
maybe a Rescue 911 episode when
23:19
I was little, but someone that somebody had
23:21
jumped in their car like rear
23:23
ended somebody or maybe like ran into something because
23:26
a cop was around and they knew that it
23:28
would cause it. And I'm like, that's what you
23:30
got to do. But 50 miles
23:32
is far away from where you
23:35
were. So I'm glad that
23:37
they eventually caught up with you, but
23:39
that's wild. And I've never really thought
23:41
about kidnapped being used universally,
23:43
even if it's not a kid. It
23:46
is interesting that there isn't a word
23:48
for if it's an adult. Right.
23:51
We've just kept kidnapping in the statute, say
23:53
it, like, because we were just looking for Mike
23:55
Miller was looking at federal kidnapping statutes and yeah,
23:58
they don't say adult napping person napping. anything
24:00
like that, but we do, I think, kind
24:02
of, you know, if the
24:04
news is being like, there's been a dog napping or
24:06
whatever, but not more of like
24:08
a fun moniker that we all give
24:10
it, not actual, but. There's not an
24:13
uncle napping. There's not an uncle napped,
24:15
but maybe upnapped should be
24:17
added to the list of things people
24:19
can be charged with. Well,
24:21
Lev, send our regards to your uncle, please,
24:23
and thank him for sharing this with us.
24:29
This next story is from Jules, and
24:31
it's called, Revenge is a Dish, Best
24:34
Served Cold. Jules
24:37
writes, I've written in before and told you how
24:39
much I love and appreciate all you two do.
24:42
As nothing has changed, I'll just get into
24:44
it. This story took place in the
24:46
90s, and there's definitely an
24:48
element of the boys will be boys
24:50
attitude, which, of course, is
24:52
problematic. I wanna preface my
24:54
story by saying that I would hope
24:56
the moms involved would take what happened
24:58
more seriously today. A
25:01
few families we knew, made up of moms
25:03
and their respective kids, went to a mutual
25:05
friend's cottage for a week one summer. As
25:08
such, the dad stayed behind because of work. One
25:11
particular kid was what most parents back
25:14
in the day might call a little
25:16
shit-disturber. We'll call him A. On
25:20
the first night of the trip, A thought
25:22
it would be funny to get the other
25:24
pre-team boys together and go through all the
25:26
girls' belongings and find their underwear. They
25:29
then flung them around the upstairs of the
25:31
bunkie we were staying in like pervy Christmas
25:33
tinsel. When we, as pre-teen
25:35
girls, found this display the next day,
25:38
we were outraged and spent at least
25:40
an hour trying to collect and repack
25:42
our things. We went to
25:44
the moms and complained. While they
25:46
sympathized with us, they didn't do much other
25:48
than tell the boys off. We
25:51
wanted to get back at them, but didn't know how.
25:54
One of the moms, whose son was A, had
25:57
been quiet while we told everyone what had happened.
26:00
She eventually said, don't do
26:02
anything. We rolled our
26:04
eyes initially thinking she was protecting her
26:06
son, but then she clarified,
26:09
take the paddle boat out into the middle of
26:11
the lake. Make sure the boys hear you talking
26:13
about how you want to get back at them
26:15
and that you're going out to form a plan.
26:19
We were confused because we didn't have a plan.
26:22
She elaborated, they'll know you want to get
26:24
back at them, so they won't trust anything
26:26
you do or say. They'll be
26:28
too paranoid to come near you. You'll see.
26:32
So we did what she suggested. We went
26:34
out on the boat and probably talked about
26:36
whatever teen heartthrob was on the latest cover
26:39
of Teen Beat and 90s girls fashion. We
26:42
waited a half hour before we headed back to
26:44
shore. And ladies, let
26:47
me tell you that paranoid was
26:49
an understatement. As soon as
26:51
we got back, they tried to get us to
26:53
tell them, quote, our plan. We
26:55
just smiled and shook our heads. All
26:57
we had to do was pretend we
26:59
had something planned as revenge and
27:02
they did the work for us. They
27:04
didn't trust any food or drink we offered
27:06
them. I remember one kid actually dug through
27:08
his food and kept sniffing at it because
27:11
he thought we'd put something in it. They
27:14
wouldn't sit on anything we suggested
27:16
because apparently we were like a
27:18
more adept roadrunner setting up booby
27:20
traps. They wouldn't even play
27:22
with any game equipment, we pointed out. The
27:24
boys were so convinced that we were
27:26
trying to sabotage them that they ended
27:28
up sabotaging themselves. All we
27:30
had to do was keep giggling, knowing they
27:33
would assume the worst. After
27:36
a few days, we tried to come clean and
27:38
tell them we didn't have a plan other than
27:40
making them think we did. But
27:42
they still didn't trust us, even
27:45
though the moms tried to confirm nothing was
27:47
happening. It ended up
27:49
being a good week. The boys left us alone
27:51
and helped out more than expected. I think they
27:53
thought they'd be safer if they stuck around the
27:56
moms when they couldn't avoid us girls. Before
27:59
we left for home, They asked again
28:01
what we'd actually done. We
28:03
repeated everything we'd already tried to explain during
28:05
the week. It
28:07
was then they realized that they did
28:09
everything to themselves. They tried
28:11
to call foul, saying we'd ruined their week
28:14
for nothing. But the moms simply
28:16
shook their heads and told them they had
28:18
it coming. Up to
28:20
that point, I'd hoped they might learn their lesson. They
28:23
might have thought it was a funny prank
28:25
because it was just underwear. But
28:27
what they didn't realize, and perhaps still don't,
28:30
is that it felt violating. Someone
28:32
rifling through your things without permission is
28:34
bad enough, but to also have
28:36
them touch and display the most intimate pieces
28:39
of clothing you own, and then
28:41
for them to try and normalize their behavior
28:43
while downplaying our feelings about it by
28:45
being adamant that it was funny and
28:48
that we just don't have a sense
28:50
of humor. All while they
28:52
were still only preteens? Hard
28:54
fucking nope. I'm glad
28:56
the dads weren't there that week, because
28:58
knowing what I know now about most
29:00
of them, they likely would have modeled
29:02
more shitty behavior that would have perpetuated
29:04
the idea that females are just too
29:07
sensitive these days. Insert
29:09
eye roll so deep it hurts here. As
29:12
a mother to two boys, I'll
29:14
be ensuring that they're thoroughly educated
29:16
about boundaries, accepting no as
29:19
a full sentence and being funny without
29:21
resorting to frat boy humor. While
29:24
I was writing this out, I could almost hear your
29:26
reactions in my head, and it made me laugh. Thanks
29:29
to you both, and to everyone else
29:31
in the sinisterhood community for calling out
29:33
toxic bullshit, standing up for other women,
29:35
and providing a safe space for those
29:37
who need it. You're
29:39
all the best. Keep it creepy. Oh,
29:42
Jules? This is just,
29:44
there's an episode of the Dig Man Dyke
29:46
show called The Impractical Joke where Buddy plays
29:48
a trick on Rob, and Rob does nothing,
29:50
and he'll just be like, hey Buddy, I
29:52
got you a donut. And he really
29:54
did get him like a totally fine donut. But he's like,
29:56
I know, there's mayonnaise in this donut. You spit in it.
29:59
Everything. be like, let me get you a
30:01
chair. And he's like falling all over himself. And
30:03
that's exactly what these kids did. That paranoia just
30:06
gets them even when you're like, I swear, I'm
30:08
not planning anything. They ruined their own trip and
30:10
they deserve this. Yes, I think it's really, this
30:14
is a really good example. And I
30:16
remember things like this happening when
30:19
I was a preteen, specifically
30:21
with like, yeah, like
30:23
your bra or underwear
30:25
of like, somebody, you're
30:28
at a slumber party and the brother of
30:30
the girl and her friends like get into
30:32
your stuff. And everyone thinks it's
30:34
funny and whatever, but like really
30:36
in the nineties, we
30:38
didn't have the luxury
30:41
of being like, actually,
30:43
this is really violating and it makes me
30:45
feel, I mean, I guess we could have
30:47
said that, but no one did. But
30:50
that's exactly how you felt. Like you
30:52
felt embarrassed and shameful and
30:55
violated. Like this is my
30:57
underwear. This is the most intimate thing and
30:59
you've touched it and thrown it around. And
31:02
now I'm the bad
31:05
time because how dare I be like, what
31:07
are you doing when, you
31:09
know, it becomes like, you're just too, you don't get
31:11
it. You don't have a good sense of humor. It's
31:13
like, no, this
31:15
is a boundary that you shouldn't
31:17
cross. Don't be touching my shit.
31:19
And I'm glad. It's not unreasonable.
31:21
No, what a good suggestion from
31:24
A's mom and probably
31:27
she has some experience with their kids. She wasn't
31:29
surprised by that. It was like little shit. Here's
31:31
what you do. But yeah,
31:33
it sounds like by
31:36
doing nothing, we are our own
31:39
worst enemy and they sabotaged themselves.
31:41
They really did. My mom would have called a
31:44
kid like this a little shit. There's a lot
31:46
of little shit like that. But you know, Jewel
31:48
said, you know, maybe if this happened nowadays, the
31:50
moms would be able to point something out. And
31:52
I think that's just to say that our generations
31:54
are very fortunate that
31:57
we went through situations like this.
32:00
and then now have come out on the other side
32:02
going, I didn't like how that felt, and I do
32:04
have the power to say no and stop it, because
32:06
like Jules said, you know, if the dads had been
32:08
there, they might have been like, oh, leave the boys
32:10
alone, and ladies don't tell the girls to get back
32:12
at them. They're just having fun, and so having a,
32:17
the moms there going like, no, you should get revenge.
32:19
That's like one little step, and then we all were
32:21
the little girls who got revenge, and we've now grown
32:23
up that were like, oh no, we're not even throwing
32:25
those panties around in the first place, we're not doing
32:27
that. And anytime it's like,
32:29
well, you just don't have a
32:31
sense of humor. I'm like, I'm a professional comedian,
32:34
I get paid money dollars to be funny, and
32:36
what you're doing is hack shit. It's just hack.
32:38
Like throwing panties is hack. Get
32:40
funnier. It's hack and it's also,
32:43
it's having a laugh
32:46
at someone else's expense, which is never
32:48
something I wanna do or want to
32:50
encourage. Right, it's like, you
32:53
know, do better kids, but those 90s boys,
32:55
I think they got plenty of
32:58
revenge, like you said, dish surf called, where you're
33:00
like, we're literally just reading our tiger beat, like
33:02
why are you freaking out right now? Oh,
33:05
what a sweet, sweet revenge. They're like, why don't you
33:07
have a glass of lemonade? Why would you put in
33:09
the lemonade? Nothing, you just seem like you're thirsty. Lemons?
33:11
And they're like, what'd they put in the lemonade? Are
33:13
they trying to poison us? Yeah, I love that. Right,
33:16
you're like, do you boys wanna swim in the pool with us? They're
33:18
like, they're gonna pee in the pool. We're not gonna go swimming. You're
33:20
like, no, we get the pool to ourselves. Hell yeah.
33:22
This is awesome. Honestly, this is a
33:25
power move, I like it. This
33:27
kind of revenge is the kind of thing my sister
33:29
would do. She's a genius, so she would've thought of
33:31
that on her own without the mom. I love it
33:33
because all you've done is say, we're
33:36
gonna get back at you. And
33:38
then everything else was created
33:40
in their own head. You didn't do anything
33:43
wrong. But I'd love to
33:45
hear that folks like Jules and you and my sister are
33:47
raising this next generation of kids in the world is gonna
33:49
be a better place. So it gives me a lot of
33:51
hope that we can hang on in memories like this, laugh
33:53
at them from what they were, look at them for what
33:55
we don't want them to be for our own kids and
33:57
then go, but we're gonna keep that.
34:00
that revenge idea in there, because kids are gonna be
34:02
kids. There's gonna be a shit-disturber in every group, no
34:04
matter how hard you try, and it's like, I'm gonna
34:06
teach my kid that one. I'm
34:08
wondering if I was a shit-disturber in my
34:11
group. It doesn't sound, the type
34:13
of a shit, a little shit or
34:15
a shit-disturber was always a kid that was fucking stuff
34:17
up for fucking it up's sake. No, I didn't do
34:19
that. There was kids that would just be like, oh,
34:22
I went in your kitchen, and I smashed all the
34:24
eggs out in the backyard, and you're like, that's rude.
34:26
That's insane. Just like destroying things, and you're like, what
34:28
are you just destroying? Doesn't eggs
34:30
cost to go to the store and buy
34:33
me some? No, I
34:35
definitely did not do that. I more
34:37
just like to get
34:39
into shenanigans on my own, but
34:42
yeah, I was actually a very polite,
34:45
nice kid to parents
34:47
and adults and everything.
34:50
Yeah, that's what I figured. I figured you
34:52
ain't a shit-disturber, but when you encounter one,
34:54
this is a way to go, for sure,
34:56
thank you, Jules. Thank you, Jules, for sharing
34:58
that with us. I know there's so many
35:00
people listening that can relate, and

like this now. So thank you. Love

36:14
this next one is from Shanna Shanna
36:16
banana subject line is the 666
36:19
Elm Street ghost boy. My
36:22
husband me and our two kids aged
36:25
four months and three years made a
36:27
move from Dallas to Denver in 2020
36:29
for my husband's job. We
36:31
moved into a rental house. And before
36:33
we even moved, I thought we were
36:36
being scammed because the listing said the
36:38
address was 6671. But on the street
36:40
view, the house number said 6661. And
36:45
yes, it was on Elm Street. It
36:47
ended up being all good. And we moved in.
36:50
Shortly after moving in the basement flooded,
36:52
then it needed major repairs on the
36:55
plumbing as well as renovating the basement
36:57
due to water damage. After
36:59
they began with the basement renovation, I
37:01
began noticing weird things. It
37:04
was a tri level house with a
37:06
main floor and upstairs, a garden level
37:08
and a basement. I
37:10
would put my son four months old down for
37:13
a nap upstairs in my room. And then I'd
37:15
usually hang out on the garden level and listen
37:17
to y'all and do laundry. But every
37:19
so often, I'd hear footsteps in my
37:21
room from above me walking around and
37:23
then my son would wake up. It
37:26
wouldn't even be time for him to wake up. And he
37:28
was a great nap taker. My
37:30
nephew stayed with us over the summer and would text
37:33
me at night asking if the kids were running up
37:35
and down the stairs. But they
37:37
would be soundly asleep next to me.
37:40
Eventually, we all started hearing
37:42
footsteps at some point, which typically sounded
37:44
like a kid running around. But
37:47
the ones I heard upstairs sounded like an adult.
37:50
One day, my daughter three at the time
37:52
said to me, Mom, there's a little boy
37:54
at the door. Clearly
37:57
there wasn't. A
37:59
few months later. my husband and kids were
38:01
on the garden level, hanging out and playing. My
38:04
husband later told me that while down there, he
38:06
was laying on the couch while the kids were
38:08
playing, when all of a sudden he
38:10
saw a little boy, about seven or eight years
38:12
old, wearing a white t-shirt and
38:14
jeans, walking towards him.
38:17
The boy stopped and just stared at my
38:19
husband. My husband said the
38:22
boy then walked toward the stairs to the
38:24
main level and disappeared. My
38:26
husband is a huge skeptic and has never
38:28
believed in ghost. Well, a couple
38:30
more months passed and I had my neighbor over
38:32
checking out my new sewing machine in the basement.
38:35
As we were heading back up, she was ahead of me.
38:38
We walked up the basement stairs to the garden
38:40
level and then we started up the other set
38:42
of stairs to the main level when she stopped,
38:44
turned around and asked me if my kids were home.
38:47
I said no and she said she
38:49
didn't think so, but asked because she just
38:51
saw a little boy turn the corner on
38:53
the main level as if he had just
38:56
gone up the stairs. She
38:58
said she mostly saw just his white t-shirt
39:00
and that he looked to be about seven years old. I
39:03
never told my neighbor about the experiences we were
39:05
having, so this really validated
39:08
everything for me and also freaked
39:10
me out. My mom came
39:12
for a visit and we bought a Ouija board
39:14
to try and contact the boy, which I'm not
39:16
sure we really did. Who knows if those actually
39:18
work, but we had a
39:20
lot of ghostly experiences in that house and
39:22
I am glad to be back out of
39:24
there and back in Texas, baby. Okay,
39:29
Shanna Banana. Well,
39:31
spooky ghost if you're happy to live
39:33
in Dallas when you could live in
39:36
Denver. That must be a really scary
39:38
ghost. I moved to Denver into this
39:43
house with this
39:45
ghost if it just meant that I got
39:47
to, you know, like as a summer home,
39:50
I'll be there for, I'll share a home
39:52
with a ghost to get out of this
39:54
place. Isn't it a thing when the ghosts come
39:56
in a blast of cold air comes in? So I'm like,
39:58
I get the Ouija board. house.
40:00
Goddamn, please. Honestly,
40:03
haunt my yards, haunt my front yard and
40:05
my backyard. I don't know. I
40:07
just need cold spots throughout the yard so I
40:09
can just stand in them. Come up,
40:12
haunt underneath my shirt if you want. Haunt down my
40:14
pants. I
40:16
wouldn't say no. I wouldn't say no, but this is
40:19
eerie. Something like this where you kind of hear it
40:21
at first and you're like, oh, well, we had plumbing
40:23
issues. Maybe it's plumbing, but it's
40:25
like, well, we just had all of our plumbing fixed. So it's
40:27
probably not that. Well, also my
40:29
husband did stare at him. Yes, he saw a
40:32
ghost. This
40:35
is gonna sound... I'm
40:38
probably inviting something. You
40:40
just said you wanted it
40:43
three times. I'm just saying
40:45
I want to see
40:47
something to where I'm
40:49
like, oh, I just
40:51
literally saw a child in this
40:53
house that isn't mine disappear. Proof
40:56
positive with my own eyes and
40:59
that's what I'm asking for. But
41:02
am I? Because do I want to really
41:04
see that? Did I do? But I don't.
41:06
I don't know. But the
41:08
fact that the neighbor said the
41:10
same thing, that
41:13
would make me stop in my tracks
41:15
and perhaps move back to Texas. Right.
41:18
Especially because the neighbor is so nonchalant and like,
41:20
oh, is that your kid? I just saw a
41:22
kid run upstairs. Is that your kid? And then
41:24
you have to go, no, wow, you must have
41:26
something wrong with you. You better leave this house,
41:28
Margaret. It was nice seeing you again. Slam the
41:30
door. And meanwhile, she's like, I'm seeing things. And
41:33
meanwhile, you're like, www.zillow.com.
41:35
We're gonna move right now.
41:37
Now we'll say bold move,
41:40
getting that Ouija board and just seeing like,
41:43
let's just open it up. Let's open this
41:45
portal right on up. Fucking hard
41:47
left at the end. Be like, I don't know. My
41:49
husband's kind of a skeptic. So I got a Ouija
41:51
board out. Open that portal, girl.
41:53
You let you open it and then you
41:55
left down. Yeah. Oh yeah. Godspeed to the
41:57
new neighbors. What you got to do. you
42:00
get an old typewriter and then you write to
42:02
the new inhabitants of 6661L. Yeah.
42:04
It's now your turn. And then you
42:07
get a podcast episode made about you
42:09
and a Netflix series. Exactly
42:11
with that one guy. What
42:13
a time though, man. Some stuff
42:15
like this, my first thought,
42:17
well, my first thought, honestly,
42:20
I didn't really have a first
42:22
thought, but I thought this is
42:25
like when people say everything
42:27
is happening at once and time is just
42:29
like stacked on top of each other. And
42:31
I'm like, what if
42:33
that's just like another time
42:37
and there's a glitch or something? I don't know. But
42:39
then if I think about that stuff too much, my
42:42
brain starts to leak out of my ears. So I got to
42:44
stop myself. I think you're 100%
42:46
right because that's what they, some paranormal people
42:49
will say, oh, that's a residual ghost where
42:51
it's like a repeat of like a moment
42:53
in time that's just on repeat. And it's
42:55
not like interacting with you and like
42:58
sees you. It's just kind of doing its own thing and
43:00
walking past you or whatever. I told you, I thought that
43:02
the ghost at my parents' house, which my mom's like,
43:04
stop saying my house is haunted. But I thought at
43:06
least it was when I was a teenager because
43:08
my dad also saw it. It wasn't just me, but
43:11
it was the same thing where it was like on
43:13
almost like on a loop. Like it
43:15
would just, it would walk down the hallway in one
43:17
direction. Like this kid seems like he's just walking up
43:19
the stairs over and over again. You're a One Direction
43:21
fan. Yeah. I
43:25
was thinking that
43:27
is one thing too. I was thinking it was
43:31
another universe happening in
43:33
the same time that we are.
43:36
And in their timeline, he's just
43:38
walking around the house and there's like a glitch
43:41
and you just kind of like see a glimpse
43:43
into that world for a second. Yeah.
43:46
I mean, that's, that's why I
43:48
thought that's how time worked. That it's like a stacked on a
43:50
line. I don't understand that. It's
43:53
like pancakes, right? Not like sausage links linked on the
43:55
table. It's like a stack of pancakes. Some people, me
43:57
in my head, it's sausage. Yeah,

47:20
this next one is from Curly Burch. And
47:22
the subject line is, I think
47:25
I saw a Sasquatch or
47:27
it saw more of me. Well,
47:30
this is one of those things that I've never
47:32
shared, but I've become a big fan of your
47:34
show over the last few months and figured I
47:36
should throw this out there now and get it
47:38
out of my system. Thank you
47:40
both for creating such a welcoming community that
47:42
helped me feel comfortable with sharing. Back
47:45
in the 2010s, I took part in
47:47
the huge shale gas boom in the Northeastern
47:49
U.S. At the time, it seemed like
47:51
a great move. But looking back,
47:54
meh, not the biggest fan of supporting
47:56
that industry. Oh well, the
47:58
nature of the work requires... constant travel.
48:01
Every time I came back on duty, I was headed
48:03
to a new job site. Large
48:05
crews of men would handle driving the equipment
48:08
to sites, setting it up, and running things,
48:10
but I was the engineer and there weren't
48:12
as many of us. So I would drive
48:14
myself site to site as needed to help
48:17
with the technical side of things. I'd
48:20
had the luck of spending an entire work
48:22
rotation in our office doing research and tidying
48:24
up paperwork. When, on my
48:26
second to last day, my manager says, Hey,
48:29
we have a job starting up in Central
48:31
PA. New customer and they want to be
48:33
ready to go ASAP. I know
48:35
this sucks to ask, but can you drive over, get them
48:37
set up, and then somebody else will be there when your
48:39
week is over. Drive 500
48:42
miles, work one day, drive back?
48:44
Okay. I genuinely liked
48:46
my manager. So, alright, let's go.
48:50
I know most of the major highways to get me 80% of
48:53
the way there. Then it falls back onto
48:55
good old GPS. If you
48:57
haven't been to Central Pennsylvania, it is
49:00
gorgeous. Green rolling hills,
49:02
deep valleys full of quaint little
49:04
groups of houses, a sprinkling
49:07
of college towns. I haven't
49:09
been back in about half a decade, but
49:11
I do still miss it dearly. In
49:14
particular, a large chunk of that
49:16
area is taken up by three
49:18
massive chunks of protected forest acreage.
49:20
Allegheny National and the Sproul and
49:23
Susquehannock State Forests. This
49:25
all happened in early November, and that
49:27
year, leaves were still changing, but hadn't
49:29
fallen yet. I'm not sure of
49:32
the legal details of it, but this new
49:34
customer's gas leases were predominantly located on some
49:36
of those state game lands. I'd
49:38
never been in this area, but the GPS
49:41
route didn't look too shady, so I took
49:43
an exit and started working my way towards
49:45
the job site on a tiny, winding little
49:47
forest road. Now, to get
49:49
there on time for day shift, this meant
49:51
I was passing through this area at about
49:53
4am. Still absolutely
49:56
dark, and the forest made it even
49:58
darker. vehicle
50:00
would have appeared, we would have had ourselves
50:02
a little standoff. That, plus I
50:04
swear I could have held my arm out the
50:06
window and slapped the trees as I zipped by.
50:09
I'm not a claustrophobic person, but I was
50:11
definitely on edge, trying to ride
50:14
that line between driving at a good speed but
50:16
still keeping an eye out on the side of
50:18
the road to avoid any deer or animals that
50:20
might zip out in front of me. I
50:22
come to a point that had a
50:25
typical foresty style sign, alert rock feature
50:27
ahead, or scenic outlook
50:29
ahead, something like that. Okay,
50:32
I thought I like those things, I'm sure it'll
50:34
be interesting. Now, I
50:36
pop around a corner in the road and I
50:38
see a few things very quickly. See
50:40
the rock? Massive. If it was hollow,
50:43
my entire work truck would fit inside
50:45
there. Thanks for the heads up sign,
50:47
did not expect that here. They
50:49
also ran the road right beside the rock, so
50:52
there was also a curves ahead sign,
50:54
the wavy arrow one. Okay, gotcha, pay
50:57
attention to the road. And
50:59
at the top of that sign, hand
51:01
on my heart, two big bright
51:05
circles that were very obviously eye
51:08
shine from my headlights. And
51:10
then I'm past it all. Still cruising
51:12
down the road, I'm probably 40, 50 feet past
51:14
it all by the time my brain processes everything.
51:17
I glance at my rear view, nothing. My
51:19
tail lines aren't bright enough to show me
51:21
anything, plus I'm still moving away from it.
51:23
For a split second, I think about tapping
51:25
my brakes to light things up, but then
51:27
I'm coming to the road curves and I
51:29
need to focus on driving. As
51:32
I keep rolling, I am wired.
51:35
If those were eyes, they were easily the size
51:37
of a billiard ball or a baseball. Also,
51:39
something I don't think most people think about is
51:42
how large road signs are. They're
51:44
meant to be huge and readable at speed,
51:46
so folks don't realize that they're usually two
51:48
to two and a half feet wide and
51:50
they sit five to six feet off the
51:52
ground. So whatever I saw
51:55
had eyes about seven or eight
51:57
feet off the ground. Eight
51:59
feet. And
56:00
I just don't think it'll ever fully go away.
56:03
If you're ever running around the woods
56:05
of Pennsylvania during the wee morning hours
56:07
or early evening, just be on
56:09
your toes. You never really know
56:11
what's walking around out there in the
56:13
woods. Oh.
56:17
Bigfoot liked what Bigfoot
56:20
saw and came back for curly birch for
56:22
another little peek. Trying to peek. Oh,
56:26
man. Those, first of all,
56:28
yes. Beautiful. Oh, yeah. Driving
56:32
up hill, like mountainous things
56:34
like that is always gorgeous, but there
56:36
is always a sense of panic because
56:38
I am like, man,
56:40
you break down here. You're kind of
56:42
screwed. And then when the road is
56:44
so narrow that you're like, two cars
56:46
can't go at the same time. So
56:49
you're already kind of on edge. And
56:51
then you see two baseball
56:53
sized glowing orbs. It's fucking huge.
56:57
That's big. Oh,
56:59
my gosh. And especially like
57:02
I appreciate his description of
57:04
like, the sign is huge. And you're just like,
57:06
oh, OK, sign. Especially if it's like four o'clock
57:08
in the morning or 4.30 in the morning, you're
57:10
just like, that's not a real time. You
57:12
shouldn't be up at that time ever, anybody. Tons
57:14
of people are all the time. And God bless you for
57:17
doing it. But your brain is still
57:19
kind of like coming back online and just
57:21
be like, rock ahead, see a sign, giant eyes,
57:23
keep going. Giant eyes. Giant
57:26
rock, giant eyes. Like, oh, shit. Yeah, you're
57:28
still trying to recover from the size of
57:31
that rock. And then you get two big
57:33
ass eyes coming at you. I
57:35
think Bigfoot was like, rock ahead, watch out. Like,
57:37
just trying to like be a buddy. Like,
57:40
we should get him a vest and some like flag.
57:42
So he just makes sure nobody hits the rock. Because
57:44
like Curlybird said, like, he didn't know that there was
57:46
going to be a big rock coming up. A sign,
57:48
lovely. But a Bigfoot, that's
57:50
going to save lives out there. So get
57:53
him a helmet and a light, like a
57:55
lighted vest. Yeah, he needs a reflector vest,
57:57
some like orange, little like, you
57:59
know. the what are they called
58:01
at airports? The little glowy sticks that
58:03
they use the ATC sticks. What are
58:05
the people called at airports
58:07
that bring in the planes? Uh
58:10
the ground control ground control. Yeah
58:12
yeah that's not what I
58:15
was thinking of but yeah that I've been having
58:17
an issue lately where the word I try to think
58:19
of won't come to my head. Probably
58:22
should start doing crossword puzzles
58:24
or something to start stimulating stuff up there.
58:27
It's hard to like pull it I just
58:29
saw New Heights Travis was like what he
58:31
was trying to describe Austin Powers and he
58:33
was like that movie with the guys and
58:35
he just goes I wish I was smarter
58:37
I wish I could just just reach into
58:39
my brain files and pull out the word
58:42
I'm trying to say I'm like dude we
58:44
all wish we could just reach into our
58:46
brain files and pull them out. Yes often
58:48
many times every day well
58:51
we got to get up to Northeastern PA
58:53
and see what's going on up there go
58:55
on a little Squatch hunt. Squatch
58:58
hunt it's so beautiful because we flew into
59:00
Pittsburgh and then we didn't really drive further
59:02
northeast we had drove south to West
59:04
Virginia but all that whole area of
59:06
like central southern Pennsylvania and like West
59:08
Virginia all just like big gorges and
59:11
like beautiful trees and stuff and like
59:13
hundred percent Bigfoot's live there like all
59:15
over. Everybody's like you can't know them
59:17
like you can't go there's so many
59:19
trees they do you know what's
59:21
in there? And maybe they come down pick
59:23
pick at you yeah come to Pennsylvania we're
59:25
thick and then it's just a Bigfoot with
59:27
a big ass. With
59:29
his booty? We think. Well thank you Curly Burch I
59:32
can see why you wouldn't want to tell your boss
59:34
that but thanks for telling us. I'm so glad you
59:36
did and I'm glad that our
59:39
community allows you to feel safe
59:41
enough to do that because we're
59:43
certainly never gonna judge anybody for
59:45
talking about their Bigfoot encounter in
59:47
fact we encourage and welcome it.
59:50
Please send it to me yeah never
59:52
make anyone feel bad about something that
59:54
they experience that's wrong and especially if
59:56
it has to do with Bigfoot that
59:58
is a slippable offense. I'm
1:00:01
feeling feisty today. Well, thank you, Curly
1:00:03
Burch. We very much appreciate it. And
1:00:05
may you see many more gentle Bigfoot
1:00:07
in your way? It sounds like it
1:00:11
wasn't something Curly Burch enjoyed. So
1:00:13
I would say if you gentle Bigfoot. Like
1:00:15
I said, may you see many more gentle
1:00:18
Bigfoots? This one seemed gentle. He
1:00:20
was just a little shy. Now
1:00:22
I will say, what's scarier,
1:00:25
a Bigfoot or an eight foot
1:00:27
owl flying around the woods? I'm
1:00:30
going owl because that's worse. That's too big.
1:00:32
That's too big of a bird for me.
1:00:35
Well, I agree. And it's too big and
1:00:37
it's talons. So it's more dangerous than Bigfoot.
1:00:39
And also we know that owls are natural
1:00:41
predators. Yeah, you could just pick
1:00:44
your ass up and take you to a nest.
1:00:46
We don't know that a Bigfoot is a natural
1:00:48
predator. So given what we know, I'm going to
1:00:50
go with an owl, a scarier. But honestly, being
1:00:52
lifted off the ground by a giant owl, except
1:00:54
for the talons like hurting you, that would be
1:00:57
really awful. But if there was a way I
1:00:59
could wear like a suit, like a leather suit
1:01:01
perhaps, and then the owl picks me up and
1:01:03
then flies me away, I'd be OK. That sounds
1:01:05
fun. Now they got to keep
1:01:08
gripping. Yes, hold up. I'm going
1:01:10
to lock them in. It's like on those roller coasters
1:01:12
where you're like hanging out the bottom half. This
1:01:15
is Heather, why are you wearing a leather vest? I'm trying to
1:01:17
get lifted. What are you saying? But
1:01:20
then it takes you to its giant nest.
1:01:22
And now's where the story really
1:01:24
begins. Yeah, the nest where. Is it going to eat
1:01:26
you? Is it going to take you in as
1:01:28
one of its own? Are you a bride?
1:01:30
It pulls its head off. What is it? It's a mask this
1:01:32
whole time. There's a person under there. It's a Bigfoot dressed as
1:01:34
an owl. I'm wearing this owl
1:01:37
suit. And you're like, Bigfoot, it was you all along.
1:01:39
He can fly. We just didn't know. Well, this took
1:01:42
quite a turn. But that is the magic of sinisterhood.
1:01:44
So well, thank you for sharing that story with us.
1:01:46
And yes, may you only encounter the big feat that
1:01:49
you want. Sinisterhood
1:01:53
will be right back. Step
1:01:56

1:03:01
this final one is from Jordan. And
1:03:04
like we said at the beginning, this is something we can all
1:03:06
relate to. Something that's happened to most of us. And
1:03:09
Jordan's subject line is terrorized
1:03:11
by a toilet. She
1:03:13
writes, Hey, ladies, I just want
1:03:15
to start by saying I love y'all and the
1:03:18
podcast. And I'm so excited to see y'all live
1:03:20
in Charlotte. I was introduced to your show about
1:03:22
six months ago and have been a daily listener
1:03:24
ever since. I'm a 37
1:03:26
year old woman from a small town in East
1:03:28
Tennessee. I'm not much of a writer,
1:03:30
but I'm going to try my best. So here we
1:03:32
go. Let's get into it. On
1:03:35
October 2nd, 2023, I was
1:03:37
at my local O'Charlie's having a drink and
1:03:39
visiting a friend who was managing that night.
1:03:42
After about an hour of hanging out and
1:03:45
sipping on my liquid marijuana, my tiny lady
1:03:47
bladder was full and I needed to pee.
1:03:50
The bathroom was small with three stalls, which
1:03:52
were all vacant. So I headed into the
1:03:54
big stall. There I was
1:03:56
hovering and handling business when the sensor on
1:03:59
the toilet decided to go I was done
1:04:01
and started flushing, but I wasn't
1:04:03
done and this wasn't a normal flush It
1:04:06
kept flushing over and over and over and
1:04:08
was getting louder and louder The
1:04:10
pipes were rumbling and the water was
1:04:13
violently swirling and smashing around like a
1:04:15
storm was raging in the bowl as
1:04:18
The rumbling got louder. It was
1:04:20
accompanied by a very high-pitched squealing
1:04:22
noise. Oh my god. It was
1:04:24
so fucking loud It all
1:04:26
started happening so quickly water was splashing
1:04:28
everywhere and here I am still peeing
1:04:31
and getting soaked Thoroughly
1:04:33
freaked out ears ringing and splattered
1:04:35
in toilet water I rushed
1:04:37
out of the stall with the toilet
1:04:40
still vigorously flushing I washed and dried
1:04:42
my hands as fast as possible Then
1:04:45
as I turned to leave I noticed
1:04:47
all the stall doors were swaying
1:04:49
back and forth in unison Not
1:04:52
a slight sway either all the
1:04:55
way open and then all the way closed What
1:04:58
the fuck I can rationalize
1:05:00
the toilet issues to just some crazy plumbing
1:05:02
problem But the door swing made
1:05:04
my heart drop into my ass. I
1:05:08
Shot out of there like a damn bullet and ran to tell my
1:05:10
friend what the hell just happened to me and to have him go
1:05:12
Check it out Feeling crazy and
1:05:14
needing some validation. I went with him and
1:05:17
Somehow everything was back to
1:05:19
normal. Am I losing my shit? How
1:05:22
the fuck is that possible? The
1:05:25
toilet had stopped loudly and aggressively
1:05:27
flushing the stall doors had
1:05:29
stopped moving and there was no water mess from
1:05:31
all the splashing Well, except
1:05:33
on my pants There was
1:05:35
definitely water on the floor when I had initially
1:05:37
left the bathroom and it couldn't have dried
1:05:39
that fast Where the hell did
1:05:41
it go? And while I'm questioning everything how
1:05:44
on earth did nobody hear all that noise?
1:05:47
I'm a naturally skeptical person, but
1:05:49
I can't shake the feeling something paranormal is
1:05:51
going on in that bathroom Periodically,
1:05:54
I asked my friend for updates
1:05:56
and so far six other ladies
1:05:58
have reported similar experiences in
1:06:00
that bathroom. So what
1:06:03
do y'all think? Did I encounter a
1:06:05
bathroom ghost at the O'Charlies? Thanks
1:06:08
for reading. Y'all are the best. Love, Jordan.
1:06:11
Hold on. I got to
1:06:13
Google liquid marijuana real quick.
1:06:15
O'Charlies and see what we're...
1:06:18
What we're dealing with. If this is an actual drink or
1:06:22
if it's just a funny
1:06:24
way of describing something, O'Charlies.
1:06:28
O'Charlies has got some tinnies when you
1:06:30
Google them. O'Charlies liquid pot.
1:06:33
Okay. Liquid marijuana... Their liquid pot is
1:06:35
about to suck you down into this
1:06:38
liquid pot and you're never going to
1:06:40
come back. O'Charlies restaurant in... Oh,
1:06:42
damn it. This isn't giving me what
1:06:44
I want. But how strong is the
1:06:47
liquid marijuana cocktail? This is from
1:06:49
just Google. The
1:06:51
liquid marijuana cocktail has an alcohol content
1:06:53
of 11.5%, which
1:06:56
places it in the mid-range compared to other
1:06:59
cocktails. For example, a classic margarita
1:07:01
might range from 10 to 15% alcohol
1:07:03
by volume, depending on the recipe, making
1:07:06
the liquid marijuana a moderately strong cocktail
1:07:08
choice. Okay. So because I was like...
1:07:10
Oh, it's got Midori in it. Maybe
1:07:12
Jordan had like so many of these
1:07:14
that shit got wild, but it sounds
1:07:17
like it's not as crazy
1:07:19
as I was thinking. No, it
1:07:21
says half ounce of Malibu or coconut rum,
1:07:23
half ounce of Midori, half ounce of blue
1:07:25
Curacao, half ounce of Captain Morgan. So it's
1:07:27
like two ounces. A fruity tropical
1:07:29
drink. Yeah. And then the rest is pineapple
1:07:31
juice and Sprite with ice. So nothing... I
1:07:33
wonder why they call it liquid marijuana. I
1:07:35
don't know. It was like I was doing
1:07:37
straight ever clear shots and then the bathroom
1:07:39
tried to eat me. And you're like, yeah,
1:07:41
the bathroom might try to eat me. But
1:07:43
you're like, I was just like sipping on
1:07:45
a little nice, like I was having a
1:07:47
normal evening and then I was
1:07:49
about to get sucked down into the bowels of
1:07:52
hell via a toilet at an O'Charlie's, which sounds
1:07:54
honestly like it could be a portal. I
1:07:57
have been in this situation, not at an O'Charlie's.
1:08:00
But where you get that toilet where it's
1:08:02
just like continuously swirling and it is an
1:08:04
auto flush and you're like, bitch, I'm trying
1:08:06
to go. I don't want all this splashing
1:08:08
on me. It's so gross. Oh
1:08:10
yeah. It's usually at like a sporting
1:08:12
of like an arena of some sort.
1:08:14
Oftentimes. Yeah. Yeah.
1:08:17
Where they're like, this thing will flush. We swear to God. And
1:08:20
I'm like, it doesn't stop flushing. No. This
1:08:22
is nuts. No. It's like
1:08:24
a double dutch. You
1:08:26
can't. The weirdest part of this
1:08:28
to me, yes, the doors
1:08:31
swaying open and closed. That's wild.
1:08:34
But the water being gone. And
1:08:36
everything's like, I don't like
1:08:39
that the ghost is like, oh, you going to go
1:08:41
tell people that the toilet flushed all over you? Good
1:08:43
luck. They're going to think you
1:08:45
peed yourself. I'm mopping this up. This ghost is
1:08:47
mean. Or the ghost is like, I'll clean it.
1:08:49
No worries. Go ahead. Back,
1:08:51
go enjoy your drink. I'll clean the bathroom. Damn. You
1:08:54
just got to know that no one likes getting
1:08:57
public bathroom toilet water splashed up on
1:08:59
their ass when they're trying to pee.
1:09:01
So I feel like this is rude.
1:09:04
This is a rude ghost that seems to
1:09:06
be targeting women. And I
1:09:08
think you should form a support group.
1:09:11
If there's at least seven of you,
1:09:13
you plus the six others, there's got
1:09:15
to be more. If you have been
1:09:17
accosted by a ghost by
1:09:19
a toilet in the O'Charlies, please
1:09:21
let us know because we
1:09:23
might run into something here. And Charlotte. Share
1:09:26
your story. Oh, also thank you so much for
1:09:28
coming to the show. That was a super fun
1:09:30
time. So we are so glad you were there.
1:09:33
Oh, we had a blast. Yeah, definitely. If anybody else
1:09:36
has had something similar in a place like that, specifically
1:09:39
at the Charlie's, the Charlotte O'Charlies,
1:09:42
please let us know. But
1:09:44
that's the kind of thing that a bathroom
1:09:46
ghost, you got to be helpful. Like it
1:09:48
made me think of the Texas theater bathroom
1:09:51
ghost. Yeah, I was thinking that too. Because
1:09:53
allegedly it gives you paper towels. Too many.
1:09:55
But it's still sometimes. I
1:09:57
hate when they gave you just a tiny little strip.
1:10:00
And they're like, now I look like
1:10:02
a hog trying to get five pieces
1:10:04
of this out, but it makes one
1:10:06
complete piece of paper towel actually. And
1:10:09
it's just like the size of a Kleenex. I'm like, man,
1:10:11
or the ones where it's like, just pull and I'm like
1:10:13
yanking it out. It'd be great to have a ghost. If
1:10:16
y'all don't know what we're talking about, we did our special
1:10:18
Live at the Texas Theater Live
1:10:20
on Moment, but you can also watch it
1:10:22
as a perk on our Patreon, but we
1:10:24
did a whole segment about the ghosts of
1:10:26
the Texas Theater we were in. And apparently
1:10:28
they have a bathroom ghost. So I can
1:10:30
see why water, if it's an energetic conduit.
1:10:33
Bathroom would be a place to check those.
1:10:35
It's a literal portal. Literally. I
1:10:37
mean, these live in the sewers, Pennywise
1:10:39
did. That's right. It's a
1:10:41
potty portal. Well, don't get sucked in the
1:10:43
potty portal. I don't think- A portal potty.
1:10:46
Portal potty, there it is. Well,
1:10:49
I'm glad to hear you're not alone, but I'm sorry
1:10:51
this has happened to more than one person, Jordan. One
1:10:55
time it's a fluke. Two times, that's
1:10:57
weird. Seven times you
1:11:00
have a ghost. Call the Ghostbusters. You-
1:11:04
But for real, you got to. What a time. What
1:11:06
a time. And now I wanna try one of
1:11:08
those liquid marijuanas. I usually just like regular, but
1:11:10
you know, whatever, might switch it up. I
1:11:13
gotta do some more. My brain this whole
1:11:15
time is like, what an interesting name, because
1:11:17
that is not what I would have imagined
1:11:19
the cocktail to be if somebody was like,
1:11:22
what's in a liquid marijuana? Oh, is it
1:11:24
green? Because the medorian and the blue
1:11:26
curacao. Oh, that's melon, right? Yeah,
1:11:28
and medori's bright green. Yeah, okay.
1:11:31
Yeah, so, makes it look green maybe.
1:11:33
I'll have one. Well, yeah, right, I
1:11:35
tried out, but oh, Jordan, thank you for sharing that
1:11:37
visual of you just getting destroyed by the toilet was
1:11:39
very funny and it was hard not to laugh while
1:11:41
I was reading it, but I'm very sorry that it
1:11:44
happened to you, but thank you for sharing it with
1:11:46
us. Also, Jordan,
1:11:48
you're an excellent writer. This was
1:11:50
very funny and very well-written, and
1:11:52
so just know that we
1:11:55
think it's great, so and
1:11:58
everyone else is gonna have a blast. No pun
1:12:00
intended. Listening to this too. A real ass blast
1:12:02
listening to it. Yeah, if
1:12:04
any of y'all are listening and you're like, oh man,
1:12:06
I want to write a story. I
1:12:08
have a great story, but I'm not a
1:12:10
good writer. I just saw this video from
1:12:12
the famous screenwriter Mark Duplass, who we love.
1:12:15
And he said that oftentimes when he does a first draft
1:12:17
of something, he just pulls out voice notes on his phone
1:12:19
and just talks it out. And then he takes it, listens
1:12:21
to the voice note and then types it out. And that
1:12:24
is a good way to like get a story flowing. So
1:12:26
if you've been sitting on a Freaky Friday story and you're
1:12:28
like, oh, I'm not a good writer, don't
1:12:30
even write. Just turn, even if you're like going for a
1:12:32
walk, turn your phone on camera mode. It doesn't have to face
1:12:34
you and you can just speak into it. And then when
1:12:36
you get home, listen back and type it out. Transwriter. Yeah.
1:12:40
And also I feel
1:12:42
like, um, usually
1:12:45
every time someone writes, I'm not a
1:12:47
really good writer and then it's like
1:12:49
great writing. So just be, I promise
1:12:51
you, we're always gonna, we're improvisers. We,
1:12:54
our job is to make everyone around us
1:12:57
look good. So we're never gonna make anybody
1:12:59
look bad on this, you know? Not at all. And
1:13:02
all y'all do so great because you're yourselves and that's it
1:13:04
being authentic and every single one of these stories, I feel
1:13:06
like I can hear you talking and I try to, you
1:13:08
know, we both try to bring your voice out. So
1:13:11
you being authentic and writing it with your real voice is
1:13:13
the best. And we hope we get to see you in
1:13:15
person again. So, yes. Well,
1:13:18
thank you, Jordan and everybody else who sent in
1:13:20
your Freaky Friday stories. If
1:13:22
you have an odd, but true story, maybe
1:13:25
you've encountered Bigfoot. You've seen a UFO, you
1:13:27
had a brush with true crime, or
1:13:30
you felt the presence of an
1:13:32
otherworldly being in an O. Charlie's
1:13:34
bathroom. He sent them in at
1:13:37
sinisterhood.com/Freaky Friday.
1:13:40
I'm going to take a little PSA time
1:13:42
to say, please use the form. I love
1:13:45
getting emails. It's just much
1:13:47
easier when they get dumped into our
1:13:49
form because, um, of the way
1:13:51
it just kind of formats the whole thing. And
1:13:53
that way also it doesn't get lost in all
1:13:55
the other stuff in our Gmail. So everyone
1:13:58
could please send them in to. It is
1:14:00
much appreciated. Hell
1:14:04
yeah. If
1:14:10
you'd like our free episodes, you'll love our
1:14:12

one of our tiers and get involved
1:14:25

1:14:27
Why did I say get involved? I
1:14:29
said that before. It's a relationship. It's
1:14:31
a relationship. You're going to get involved.
1:14:33
Honestly though, today, somebody posted in our
1:14:35
Patreon Facebook group a vanity plate that
1:14:37
just said soup and was like, I
1:14:39
hope that their spouse has one that
1:14:41
just says tubes. And everyone
1:14:44
was like, soup tubes. And it was like, my
1:14:46
brain thinks too much about soup tubes. And
1:14:48
so yeah, you will get involved with soup
1:14:50
tubes and all kinds of weird, the
1:14:53
things that we've established over on Patreon.
1:14:55
But we love it. We love everybody
1:14:57
over there. Thank you. We love everyone over there.

really know when because oftentimes it's just like
1:15:46
we should stream tonight. So
1:15:48
if you're ever like, why don't we get noticed? It's
1:15:50
very casual. We're just on the porch. We're going to
1:15:52
hang out anyway. We got
1:15:54
to afterwards say
1:15:57
like, hey, we did this. Yes. So
1:15:59
right now I will tell you. We did the other day,
1:16:01
we did a Karen Reed stream. If you've been following the
1:16:03
Karen Reed trial, we're all
1:16:05
as of recording time, we're waiting for a verdict.
1:16:07
By the time you hear this, there may be
1:16:09
a verdict, but we plan to go live periodically.
1:16:11
And the best way to know that we're going
1:16:13
live is to subscribe to our YouTube channel. It's
1:16:15
100% free. All you have to do
1:16:17
is mash a little boop subscribe button and click on notifications.
1:16:20
And it'll let you know when we upload videos or when
1:16:22
we're going live so you don't miss it. But
1:16:24
anytime we go live, we leave the stream up so you can watch
1:16:26
it on demand as well. We just like the live part because we
1:16:29
get to talk to you. It's so much fun. We're real
1:16:31
time and casual. We're on my porch. Yeah.
1:16:34
We have a chalkboard. Yeah, the
1:16:36
real title of the chalkboard tells you what we'll
1:16:38
be talking about. Which is my kid's chalkboard. It's
1:16:40
all started. When did
1:16:42
we first do it? Talk your post. Oh, yeah, it
1:16:45
was. It was the listen through. And then we were
1:16:47
like, this is fun. So we've done it a handful
1:16:49
of times. Yeah, and
1:16:51
we always have fun. So subscribe so you

on Instagram and threads, and
1:17:32
Christian Wallace and TikTok, and
1:17:35
Christie or GTFO. Who
1:17:37
knows? Sometimes I
1:17:39
just think back on my
1:17:41
younger years, and I'm like, there's
1:17:44
shit out there that I don't know about probably. And
1:17:49
sometimes I just think about that. Please
1:17:52
don't anybody go looking for anything. I'm just
1:17:54
saying, I don't think there is anything. You
1:17:58
can find me on the internet. You think it
1:18:00
might feel that it's in the nervous
1:18:03
disorder? Oh,
1:18:09
if you find an OnlyFans page, and
1:18:11
you think it's me, please DM me
1:18:13
because it is not. And I need
1:18:16
to, one, see who my
1:18:18
doppelganger is, and if I want it to stay
1:18:20
up or not. Two, get the profit
1:18:22
split. I was going to say, you need me to
1:18:24
write them a letter saying, you can either cease and
1:18:26
desist or do a 50% profit share. Yeah,
1:18:30
I'll see how much you make it, and
1:18:32
then we'll talk. Yeah, then we'll
1:18:34
talk. Well, where are you, Heather? I'm
1:18:36
on the internet, Heather versus the world. As
1:18:40
always, the devil rules the airwaves. Keep
