Do you want to talk about that a little bit?

Yeah, well, I didn't realize how it would affect so many people because a lot of people reached out saying that it helped them actually fall asleep and they were having sleeping trouble prior.

Yeah, I could never get myself to fall asleep.

I have terrible insomnia.

Last night I went to bed at like 4 a.m. I've just never been somebody who naturally goes to bed early.

Until the sun's rising.

The way that I have been forcing myself to go to bed when I need to is I've, like you said, termed it breaking into Wallace.

I shouldn't be researching this at two in the morning and things like that?

Hang on tight.

So eventually these like the first one that ever really came through this charity based type of chain letter was for a women's missionary where they built a school.

They ended up raising like ten thousand dollars.

Another one was a Red Cross volunteer who was trying to fundraise for soldiers in Cuba.

And both of them did so well that one of them made $10,000.

And $10,000 in the 1880s.

Right.

see christian had a plan i've been waiting

This is good too.

This'll work.

A primary school boy was on holiday down in Izu with his family.

He wanted to go out and play, but there was a TV show he didn't wanna miss, so he recorded it on the VCR in their room.

But the channels down there are different from Tokyo's.

No station there uses that channel, so it should've been blank.

But when he played it back at home, there was a woman on the screen.

[laughs]

Mm-hmm.

If you're safe or not.

I like- But people did not care for lucky letters pretty quickly.

They, because it was kind of a dark period for their history.

They were going through a lot.

And then the real, uh, cherry on top was that they had this really gnarly earthquake, and it was right when people were sending all these lucky letters around.

And pe- some people started getting really superstitious and thinking that these were omens, if things- Oh my God.

But

So Em, would you do the honors in starting us off?

Yes.

So the first story's from Michelle L. with the subject air show premonition.

When I was a little girl, I loved airplanes.

My favorite was the Blue Angels.

I don't know why, but I just loved them.

I thought airplanes were the bee's knees.

Oh, gosh.

[laughs]

Just call my step-grandparents who taught her.

Yeah, so I, I've, it's, it's very nice to have her on call if I need something, but usually, this is probably very irresponsible if you're talking to someone who practices much more than I do, but my only ritual, which Christine likes to poke fun at sometimes, is that a- as I'm leaving any haunted place, I just say goodbye like a bajillion ti- I just go, "Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye."

[laughs]

Well, so the county over for me is, uh, it's Fairfax County, and that's where the Bunny Man Bridge is.

And the story that I always grew up with was that in the '70s there was this man who was being transferred from one mental health hospital to another.

They were much more, um, nasty about-
