Yeah, and I don't want to cry, but I kind of told you about this a little bit ago. But so y'all know my dog died and he was 16 and seven months old and I lost him in August. So it's been a while back, right? Mm-hmm. So this girl I know, and I would say a friend of mine, but really she's more like someone I know. You know, kind of those acquaintances that you see at parties and you're like, hey, how you doing? But you never get together and go out for dinner or anything. Sure. You know, those kind of friends. So anyway, but she's a nice person. I always liked her. So she moved to Abu Dhabi. And she's been living in Abu Dhabi, right? Okay, okay. Where is Abu Dhabi? It's like, it's somewhere around. Is it in the Middle East? I was going to make a joke. It's somewhere around Minneapolis. Yeah. Yeah. It's in the Middle East. Okay. Because. It's very hot there. And this is what I remember Abu Dhabi for. And there'll be several who go. I'll look it up. Abu Dhabi. Because we're going to get it wrong and somebody's going to correct us anyway. When I was a kid, I watched Garfield and Friends and Garfield was always threatening to ship Odie, the dog, on Garfield and Friends to Abu Dhabi. That was his line. Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates. Okay, so that's where it is. Okay, I didn't know that. She taught school forever and then she decided, I don't know how old she was, probably in her 50s. And go to Abu Dhabi. Exactly. She goes, you know what? I want to try something really different. I want to live someplace different. She moves to Abu Dhabi. She's teaching English speaking kids. And she gets to travel to all these exotic places, right? So she always loved my dog very much, but never met my dog, but loved my dog. Like through your Twitter or your Facebook, Instagram post? Yeah, primarily Instagram, yeah. I mean, everybody loved my dog. He was very, very adorable. and he was always going on adventures. He was just an easy guy to like if you never met him before. And Carol is selling locks of his fur for $29.95 if you'd like to have good luck. That is creepy as shit. I don't even have a lock of his hair. Anyway, so after he passed away, my sister says to me, you know, you should make one of those books like you do on Shutterfly or whatever. Yeah. And she says, she goes, I did it. It really helped me. And I'm like, I don't want to make a book. Yeah. Yeah. So as much as you want to earn from a ex-co-worker. Oh my God. She sent me a Facebook report. But anyway, and I'm like, oh my God, no, I don't want to be your friend. Recently. Oh really? Okay. Anyway, so that's another story you've probably heard about before. So my friend who's in Abu Dhabi, she's very sorry for me because my dog, she reaches out to a couple of friends of mine and like, I'm thinking about doing a book about Buddy. And they're like, okay. So they help her with it, right? And so she, over the Christmas holidays, she came to my house and gave me this book. And of course, I looked at it and I burst into tears. And this is a really nice book. Like it probably, she had to done a major deep dive on my Facebook page. And- How well do you know her? Like if I saw her in the bar, I'd be like, hey, how's it going? Okay. But I don't have her phone number or anything like that. Okay. Yeah. And so she brought it over and it's like 40 pages. Yeah. Four zero. Like it's a lot of pages. Like it's this beautiful coffee table kind of book. So she goes back to Abu Dhabi and I sent her a message and I posted about it on Instagram. I got a bazillion likes and comments and stuff. Sure. Because he was so adorable. And so I sent her a message and I said, hey, I just want you to know how much that meant to me. And she said, you know, it was really weird that I even did the book. And I said, agreed. Like, I said, but what's interesting is that my sister wanted me to do a book, but instead I got a book that's written first person. Like, Buddy talks like, it talks like I do this or I did that or you took me here, you took me there. Yeah. So it's written in first person. And so I said, it's like it came from my dog. Like he was saying it to you. Right. Yeah. And she said, that's really weird you say that because that's how exactly how I felt doing it. She goes, I had this overwhelming need to put a book together for you. And I have no idea why. Has she ever done this before for anyone else in any way, shape or form? How did she? She's just like, I always loved your dog. But she goes, I just one day, and it reminded me of, if anybody's ever heard the episode I did about the guy I dated, Doug, and I did this painting and I had this overwhelming urge. Yeah, we replayed it like 30 times. Right, okay, so that happened. It usually gets a lot of listens. So it's like, what do we need today? Let's have Carol reliving the saddest experience of her life, strictly for ratings. Which was a sad experience. but it was very like it was very weird i had just this overwhelming feeling that i needed to do that and then i realized i needed to do it for his brother i needed to say something to his brother so for her to say to me i just don't know why i just felt compelled like i was moved to do this for you. And I'm like, and you wrote it in first person. So that made it like it came from my dog. She goes, that's what it felt like. She's living in Abu Dhabi. My dog dies. And she feels so good. She writes the book in Abu Dhabi? That's so interesting. Seriously, I follow her on Facebook. Maybe your dog was Odie. Maybe Odie was your dog. Garfield shipped him to Abu Dhabi and then maybe that's so weird but it was just you know it's like she commented on lots of buddy posts I comment on lots of her because she takes fantastic vacations like places I'll probably never go to she didn't like them try and get you involved in a multi-level marketing scheme not yet all these vacations and all that she could be I heard you needed a cleansing and then she'll be like you know what cleansing is that code I can bring your dog back from the dead join me at the Pomorda Holiday Inn with $500 and if that was the case I'd show up for that shit I'd be like you got my dog I'm there $500 it'd be like Pet Sematary where it's like it's the dog but it kind of wants to eat you but it sure does look like my dog it sure looks like he acts like him too until you fall asleep so we just sleep in in different rooms and that's okay. That would be a great horror movie someday. It's called Carol's Dog. Oh, don't do that. And that's like Carol's Dog. What happens when the most loved pet returns when she makes a deal with the devil? But we've talked about it before. Like, you know, people have been like, oh, you're going to see him in dreams. And I kind of did once. But I haven't had any, like, experiences, anything at all. Well, that right there was an experience. That was, it may not have been a, you know, like you having it in your dreams. That is so bizarre, but very interesting. And we had guests on the show on the Grave Talks specifically where it been people involved with pets whether you have kids or pets or neither it a story about snuggles like five people got that but it was a story about pets coming back or a lot of people who've like literally been pet psychics I've had psychics on that show who have told me what my dogs thought about me and I don't know if I believe them but it was kind of interesting it was kind of accurate to a certain extent about to the certain extent of my Chet Jameson bowling psychic bits that I did a long time ago where you got a 7-10 split there that means your uncle wants to say I'm sorry which uncle I'm getting a name I'm a and your mother was it your mother's oh father's it's a mother father it's my dad Bill it's Bill it is Bill he said he did some bad things to you once he did he says he's sorry and he'd like to buy you an order of nachos so I'm going to buy that right now for you in remembrance nachos please and that would be the bit and people would be like oh my god I believe you Chet Jameson and he was a country singer on the side he was a bowling psychic that I used to play on country radio at night and the thing is everybody fucking believed it I should I know where the tapes are I just found them when I'm packing up here. I should bust some out. And I've been trying to convert them to digital, but I always forget about it. I have a boom box that has a USB drive and you press the tape and it tapes it down to the USB. I'm trying to convert my archive of top 40 radio and country radio for the last 10 or more than, well, it was 10 years ago, at least when it started. And then the 20 years prior to that, because there were some fun bits. There was some funny shit that I did that I look back now and cringe horrifically. And there's some things that you'll probably never see the light of day again. Yeah, but it's got Jameson bowling psychics about it, as good as it comes. Chad Jameson was a... That's pretty good. He was great. I wish there was a way to bring him back on podcasts. I'm sure there's a way it's... I don't know. I don't know how I do that. 855-853-4802 is our phone number at Real Ghost Stories Online to show your real ghost stories with us. I should have muted both mics because you can hear me coughing off mic over there let's go to our first story it says I've had quite a few paranormal experiences in Gettysburg Pennsylvania I'd like to share one I live about 90 minutes outside of Gettysburg and I love visiting the quaint town a few times a year not only for its history but for the many shops, restaurants, museums it has to offer. You've been to Gettysburg before, correct? No, sir, I have not. You haven't? I want to go. The amount of times you talk about Gettysburg, I could have fascinated by it. Yeah. Very fascinated by it. But I've never been there, so that's on my list of places. We should book a show out there. Wouldn't that be awesome? Yeah. That'd be so awesome. We get a ton of people for that. Let's do it. Yeah, that would be a fun one. Gettysburg is also one of the most haunted towns in America. About 15 years ago, I had just learned about EVP, what it was, and how to capture it. For those who may not know, EVP stands for Electronic Voice Phenomena, which basically means capturing voices of ghosts on an audio device. So, I decided to experiment with it at Gettysburg. I purchased a handheld tape recorder, packaging tapes, and brand new batteries, and headed out to Gettysburg. This was back before they had digital recorders, or at least before I could afford one. Anyway, when night fell, I headed out to one of the most haunted areas on the battlefield called Sach's Covered Bridge. I had taken my father along, not only for safety, but as a witness should anything paranormal happen. Okay, do you know anything about this bridge? No, I've never heard of it. I quickly opened my tape recorder, took the batteries and tapes out of their packaging, and inserted them into the recorder. It was close to the time for the park to close, so I wanted to get my experimenting in as soon as possible. No one else was around. It was just my dad and I. Out of the car, while my dad waited, walked about 300 yards away, close to the water's edge, knelt down and started to ask questions. In total, I asked about 10 to 12 questions like, what's your name? You know, what year it is? Where are you from? Et cetera. I finished up with a question, do you need help? I have to say, I felt like a total idiot. talking to the air. I had no idea if this thing was going to work or not. When I finished, I rewound the tape, put the recorder up to my ear and started to walk back to the car. After each question, I heard nothing. And I heard myself ask the last question. Do you need help? To my absolute shock and surprise, I heard the voice of what sounded like a very young male reply. Yes, I do. I couldn't believe it. There it was, an intelligent response to a direct question, but where did it come from? This has been under conditions I had controlled because I was using my own equipment. I knew the recorder, the batteries, and the tapes were brand new. I'd taken them out of their packaging myself. Also, as I said, there was no one around. It's an open field with a body of water running through it. The voice that I caught on the tape sounded like it was standing next to me. It was what they call a Class A EVP. The voice was clear. I could definitely tell it was that of a very, very young man. Maybe late teens or early 20s. However, it sounded like he was standing behind plexiglass. I heard absolutely nothing with my own ears, yet the voice was there on the tape. That night I came to four conclusions. One, ghosts are real. Two, EVP works. Three, Gettysburg is haunted. And number four, I had been in contact with a Civil War soldier. I wonder if he could see me. Prior to that night, I had been on the fence about ghosts and paranormal experiences. After that event, I'm now 100% a believer. Again, the equipment was mine, and I knew it wasn't tampered with because it was brand new. I heard nothing with my own ears. The voice was only heard on the tape and only right after asking my question. I couldn't wait to get back to the car to play it for my dad, who was just as shocked and stunned as I was. Since at night, I've been back to Gettysburg numerous times. I've had other paranormal experiences there. It's truly an amazing place historically. And paranormally. Thoughts on that. Okay, so you ask, and this is just a what would you do. So you ask a question like that. Do you need help? You're walking back to your car. You hear, yes, I do. Do you turn around? Because you asked a question and you heard, yes, I do. You better be prepared for the response. And then do you feel kind of obligated or in, in he or she never mentions like, there's no followup to like, how can I help you? So I'm assuming it was like, oh my God, they answered me, but he didn't realize it till later though. Yeah. On the way back to the car though. That's where, but the park was closing. So then do you feel obligated to go back and, and see if you can connect again and can you help and can you do anything? Like, what would you do with that information? Who's ever really truly been able to go, oh, shit, okay, let me come back. Oh, you want to, okay, you want to go to heaven? Let's do that right now. Let's bring the doors open. And I mean, do you feel like you should do something? Like, do you go back and say, what do you need? That's a dumb question to ask, honestly, because it's like, what? And no offense to them, But it's, what are you going to do? I mean, it gets the question, but what are you going to offer? Yeah, you can't do it. Unless you're someone that's qualified to offer some way of crossing over, you know, to do that or whatever. I don't know. And I think a lot of ghosts maybe want to be crossed over. I think a lot of them are completely happy where they're at. It's a very human, living assumption of us that, oh, you must want to go this way or that way. I don't know. Sometimes I think they're just cool where they're at. you know I don't and if all these years have passed and you're still like I could use a little help here sure and some may say that some may not but we always have to then respond appropriately but there just seems to be this mass assumption that they all want to go to the light and I just thought of it in a different way so maybe Civil War Battlefield you ask a question do you need help you get the answer they need help against the other the enemy or they're laying they're injured yes I need help so that's what's left the last thing in the universe at that point for that person or in that situation a lot of people a collective yes I need help because what is that if that's a conscious entity answering you yes I need help are you sitting there like an eternity like just suffering on the field or is that truly like a soul. It's just some sort of thing that just keeps saying, yes, I need help. I need help. Or is it just like you were in the right spot at the right time when you asked that question and picked that up, but is the general, because maybe you know, Gettysburg, a lot of people died there. So in that particular place there could have been a lot of death So when you think about all the death that happened in a small i mean it was a big area a lot of people died very i mean it a place of a lot of negative energy i mean just by nature of what happened the energy itself is it is it something trying to lure you in and be like yeah i'll answer your question yes i do need help because i'm beelzebub you know something like that you know that could possibly be Stop it with the demons. What? The demons are fun, you know? The demons are part of it. Right, Chet? Yeah, it's exactly right, Tony. Chet over here at Lane 35 at the Bowl of Lavia. It's a great night here. Nachos are on sale. Only 50 cents if you want to add extra jalapenos. We got them for you over here. Chet Jameson out. Yeah. That's how Chet used to talk. Kind of love him. Then we'd have the bowling pin sounds. We should bring Chet back. We really... Then we got a spare. You know what that means. Your uncle's talking to you. Oh, my God. Look at this. I think what we see here, this, look at the way those pins are lined. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. The one, the four, and the eight are still standing. That's a rare combination of pins, let me tell you. And who is it you wanted to speak with? My aunt. Your aunt. I'm getting a name here. I'm getting a... And you wait for someone to actually fill in the blank. Erin, yes. Yes, Erin, that's exactly who I was speaking with. She's right here. Oh, my goodness. She tells me, you know what? She's got a secret for you. You know what? You need to go to Branson, Missouri. and you need to go and visit Mr. Jim Baker. He is sitting there waiting to sell you some water that's going to cure COVID. It's going to send you to heaven and back, and it's going to break you more beautiful than Tammy Faye ever was. I need you to go there and get that special water, get the food supply before the Russians invade, and it's going to be the best thing you have ever done. Wait a second. That was Chet Jameson. I'm sorry. It's Jim Baker. I just I'm sorry it's kind of a you know I need to do make some extra money okay Jim thanks I need this bowling alley in my life I don't even bowl but I'm gonna take it up we need more Chet Jameson in the world because I'm gonna go bowling and I'm gonna get me everything but the one the 12 or whatever you just said excuse me ma'am I need another scorecard down here Yeah, I've been getting all them X's. All them X's. Look at them triple X's right there. Oh, my goodness. Are you a junior this year? Oh, my God. Chet, what the fuck? I'm sorry. I've been locked away for a long time. Yeah. I'm sorry. I'm still Jim Baker. I just. It's hard. It's hard. Yeah, it's hard. You never really know. 855-853-4802 is our phone number. at Real Ghost Stories Online. Letter, it says, my name is Devon. I'm an Air Force spouse, born and raised in Wichita, Kansas. Hey. Hey, hey, hey. I live there. I used to live there. That's where I met you. I love that town, actually. In Wichita. I fled it. You did. I stayed. You know, looking back, it's a nice town. I like it. I have nothing against Wichita. We have two kids, a boy, a girl. I've always considered myself to be an empath, but never thought I might be sensitive to the paranormal. To back it up a little bit, when I was eight years old, my family and I lived in a house over 100 years old in Millwood. My three brothers shared a master bedroom. When I slept in their room, I woke up in the night with my underwear pulled down to my ankles. Thought maybe my brother was pulling an innocent prank. No, it was just me, Chuck Jameson. That's fucked up. But no one was awake. so I pulled them back up and brushed it off as nothing. Other than that Jameson. Oh my God. I'll be watching you every breath. You fucked up. Bundled up in a blanket and went back to sleep. It's important to mention at this time my youngest brother would sneak out of his room and come sleep with me and mine. So one night not long after the incident in my brother's room I woke up in the middle of the night to a shadow figure at the end of the bed. As soon as they said my brother's name the figure disappeared. I remember being frightened, but I bundled up in my blanket, went back to sleep. Nothing more happened, but I remember being generally creeped out at this house. The storage room out of the barn garage gave me the super creeps. By age 10, we had moved. Fast forward to 2013, my husband and I moved into England only a year after the birth of our son. And while I was pregnant with my daughter, we lived in an Air Force base called Mildon Hall. Soon after the birth of my daughter, my husband deployed. My newborn daughter slept with me every night. There was something evil in our master bedroom. I couldn't sleep well between nursing my daughter and the evil thing. Only a couple yards near my spot on the bed. One night I felt like someone was standing over me, just watching. When I woke up the following day, a tiny bit of varnish had been scratched off my headboard. It was only me, my infant and toddler in the house. I later attempted suicide in this house. As a result, we were rushed back to the States. We live in Louisiana now, an Air Force base and an 80-year-old duplex. I'm doing much better, but something is lingering in our spare room. This entity only seems annoyed but not evil. I'm not looking forward to any more paranormal experiences, although we will be moving back to my hometown in about eight months. Hopefully by then I'll have listened to enough of your podcast to know what to watch out for when shopping for a forever home. It's a sight. It's like we're fucking property brothers. When you're looking out for a room, let's get a good tip from Chet Jameson. Well, I think here's what you need to do. Look for the demons that are going to actually accent your lifestyle. Demons that mean the best. demons that will help make you have a happier home. Lots of apple scented potpourri in every room is what you want. Lots and lots of potpourri. And after you got the potpourri, lots of jars of peppers and olive oil spread in every room on every shell that will keep the demons away. And that every night before you go to bed, say a little prayer and whisper into your husband's the year. I wish you were Jet Jamison. Now, honestly, I think you need to stay away from Shiplap. But other than that, it's overdone. It's everywhere. I think that's kind of, yeah. It continues. As a Domino's delivery driver, it helps my work. They go by fast. All the best of fun. We actually had Domino's tonight. We did. Because Carol's actually physically here in the studio. We're actually doing this live. She's here. And we never do this together looking at each other. Yeah, this is weird. But because I just keep staring at the computer because I'm not comfortable seeing other human beings. It's always avoid her eyes. I'm like, what? Yeah, it's good, Carol. I'm looking at the other side of the room. But, you know, that's how it works. I think that person needs to find a nice house like mine that doesn't have a bunch of crazy shit happening. Murder sheesh. But I have to wonder. I mean, I got a murder sheesh. I mean, things need a place to go. But at least, you know, there's a designated place. But I would have a real problem. Like, I think with that person's history and some creepy stuff has happened. I think that especially when she's talking about the current place and the spare room and it's a dark energy over there. Like, that stuff gets in your brain. You know, you can feed off of that. That feeds off of you. How many spare rooms just feel weird in people's houses because they're the rooms that people have used for weird shit? Where, like, especially if it's an older house, it's like, well, we got that spare room. We could do that in there. And it could be anything from, like, that's the exercise room to that's the Ouija board room to that's the dungeon room. that's the one that great grandma was in after she died there's so many the spare room there's another movie right there the spare room it just follows a room let's get Prince Harry in it be the spare in the spare room Prince Harry he's got the new book out the spare he can tell some more stories about it keep telling the shit profit off of how... We'll get you some more money. I'm profiting off of how difficult it was to be a royal. Because at the end of the day, isn't that pretty much what we're talking about? I mean, we're talking about someone who... Okay. Did you have a dysfunctional family? Yes, you did. Many people did. Absolutely. I did too. Dysfunctional and we had no money. Everybody's got their shit. But you know the healthier thing to do, honestly, is to just focus on your life today and make that what you want it to be and not bitch about it for profit. And he's got two adorable kids and he loves his wife and I think your life's good. I don't watch, I have not watched any of it. I really don't give a shit about any of it. I just don I don see the worth my time Well I thinking all he doing is giving them more episodes for the crown They can keep on going with like a zillion more seasons with his information Let's just keep the drama going. Like, I don't know. What's the point? I have very little pity for anyone in a situation really like that. You have the world in front of you. You can do whatever the fuck you want to do. You already left. Go do it. Cool. Do what you want. and don't make your identity about your trauma, I guess. And that's kind of, it's like he's glorifying that idea, you know. And is it trauma? I mean, some are, but not, I think everything. I think there's definitely trauma. There's levels, but trauma compared to other people's trauma? Yeah. Yeah, I don't know. Let's do another caller. Hi. Let's hear your story. Hey, this is Eric from Central Illinois calling. First, I want to apologize. Some of my stories I've called in have just been so dry. when Tony is talking about what he is looking for for stories and what you're feeling and blah, blah, blah. So hopefully this story meets that criteria. So we take the toddler to swim lessons at the Y. And it was an older building. And I always, like, just a foul mood. When we leave the building, and I was almost like in a funk. It was really hard to explain, but I was just kind of like, just don't laugh when I left the building. and they had earlier this year they had built a new one and this was like probably a week before they were going to move and they'd already started the process of moving some of the equipment and whatnot over there and they had a bleacher set up to where you could sit and watch the kids in the pool, right, their poolside. And so my partner and I, we're both sitting there, and I'm sitting watching the lessons, and I just get this just blanket of dread that just engulfs me, and I'm feeling all of these different emotions. and I almost go into like a trance and I didn't realize I was doing it but I had like one of those like money clip card holder things and I was using it I guess as a fidget spinner I was holding it in one hand and spinning it with my finger in the other and I was doing it for I guess five or ten minutes and my partner she's just like uh are you okay and i look at her and she's just like are you gonna cry and i'm like i think so like i was just holding back everything that i could just exploding in a uh just a ball of emotions and i'm just my leg was shaking and i'm just like i i just feel like just such sadness and you know once we got out of there it went away and since we moved to the new Y I've never felt that again I've never felt anything like that before in regards to just being in a location doing paranormal investigations I'll sometimes feel tightness in my chest or something I think if something's trying to communicate But yeah, that was just really weird. So thank you all very much and have a good one. Thanks for sharing your story with us. I think some places just kind of hold an energy. If you're empathic enough or sensitive enough, you just kind of end up feeling it or taking it in and you don't really know why. And maybe too, you're in the right place in the building. Yeah. To really pick up on some of that because he was always like very agitated when he left or something like that. he said but that one place was this overwhelming like I'm gonna cry which is a really weird thing to happen like you can get like a weird feeling of dread you can get that weird what oh I'm feeling uncomfortable but it's not gonna make me start crying yeah it's so to have that overwhelming that's quite overwhelming if it's gonna pull you that far you know I mean I know like anxiety can do that sometimes but sometimes I mean if you just have no idea where the hell it's coming from it's like what yeah, what is this? Why? The sense that dread thing is kind of not uncommon. It's this weird, like, I got a bad vibe right here, that sort of thing. But that's way different than, I'm going to cry. I can't. Cry is different, yeah. It's a different emotion. But, no, interesting. I've never had that happen. I'd love to learn what actually, you know, I'd love to learn about war, that building, what happened to that building, any history of that building, where. I think he's picking up on something historical in that building. That's going to wrap up today's episode of Real Ghost Stories Online.
