Paranormal State 2.2 - Family Ties

Catherine is a listener who sent me a spooky email to alreadyscaredpod at gmail.com, which you are welcome to do too if you want to.

I will not read your scary story on the podcast unless you explicitly tell me that it is okay.

So this one is from Catherine.

She says, See, Catherine's family is a lot more fun than mine.

Catherine says mine, my grandmother's, multiple aunts and uncles' house, even my sister's apartment when she married and moved out have all been haunted.

That's amazing.

I wonder what's up with that.

My grandmother had small shadow people the size of toddlers running around when we would try to sleep in the living room.

There was one room and an aunt and uncle's house.

Me and my cousin to this day refuse to stay in because it just feels evil.

My sister's apartments in a very old neighborhood had doors opening and closing when my nephew was younger.

He would constantly talk about the scary boy that was in his room.

My childhood home was over 100 years old and a butcher shop and it was very creepy.

Late at night I would have to rush into my room at the end of a dark hall because I felt like something was following me.

I would hear people whispering and my bed shook in the middle of the night for no reason.

My mother saw a little Native American girl at the top of the stairs.

She says Buffalo has a long history with indigenous people so it checks out.

One day while I was still in school I passed my younger sister's room and saw some asleep with the covers pulled up so only the top of the head and hair was showing.

Figuring

that was my sister staying home from school sick, I thought nothing of it and headed downstairs to get ready.

I asked my mother what was wrong with my sister.

She said nothing.

She just left for school.

I raced up the stairs and saw not only the bed empty, but the covers pushed to the end of the bed like they were thrown off.

That and years of hearing crying in empty rooms.
