If you believe Sara, you have more than ghosts in your series. she's so fake!
corny
This episode seemed so unfinished. There is a dark energy in the house that is targeting the child, and the female medium said early on that the child may be sensitive and that a voice told her the girl needs to be trained. But at the end they leave the family hanging.They never found the negative spirit , and just told the family to just tell that spirit to leave. Not sure how that is helpful....
wow this is crazy I've had a similar experience but I don't think mine even compares
couldn't Sara have gotten the name Emily from the sign on the shoes by the bar?
Listened to this in the middle of the afternoon.. all of my lights are on now and I'm impatiently waiting for my husband to come home. hearing the sound of running footsteps is going to keep my up more than just tonight. ugh goosebumps haha
