In October of 2022, I had the honor of writing a show for a Halloween event at the beach, where storytellers spun tales for an audience sitting around a bonfire. My stories were brought to life by the incredibly talented actress Nicole Javier, and the event was produced by Eric Vosmeier and David Ruzicka. It was truly a special experience and I’m really proud of what I wrote. So as a special Halloween bonus, I’d like to take you back to that night...

When David gave permission for the spirit to communicate thru his dreams he should've been more specific in what form he wanted it to take. I probably wouldn't have asked for it to come to me in my dreams my dreams be Hella sexual. Unless the spirit is into that. but all jokes aside I would of asked the spirit to take to the for of a Human girl and for it to allow me to see it in real time instead of in my dreams.
That ghost tryna hit That a**.
I really enjoyed this episode. I grew up watching ghost shows and wondered why the ghost hunters were always provoking the spirits to get proof. Then they would leave the owners of the properties with upset entities. Why can't they access the situation and help.
Zach Bagans is a fraud and a shill.
I looked at the Host. It was good! Highly recommend. Very happy for the recommendation.
The problem with this guys entire argument against ghost hunting, is that it assumes or implies everyone is, or should be a Christian
This is a really good interview.
love love it
"Do you want to see yourself?" that's what I heard anyway...
This episode gave me goosebumps and also made me cry. So good!
just opened my podcast acc yesterday and very happy that this channel's available!! cant wait for more!
That was definitely one of her pets. I don't believe her. That makes me doubt her whole story.
♡♡♡♡♡
Very interesting! I personally believe owls to be signs of the goddess Lilith and I've never heard of a relation to them with aliens.
I have literally been seeing owls everywhere since I listened to this
If owls are an embodiment of a loved ones spirit, then what are ravens?
I just came across your podcast suggested on my feed. Interesting stories - Excellent show
