They read a collection of listener-submitted spooky and bizarre stories. Tales include a Victorian apparition in a mirror, a near-miss stray bullet that grazed a wall, and a recurring parade of yokai-like spirits in a dream. Conversation veers into theories about souls, lucid-dream awakenings in the wrong body, block-universe ideas, and modern takes on aliens-as-saviors.

ANECDOTE

Child Politely Moves Aside For Ghost

  • A 10–11 year-old saw a reflected ghostly woman on a stair mirror and politely said, “I’m sorry, I’ll get out of your way,” then walked downstairs and continued playing Nintendo.
  • The house stairs had been reoriented by renovations, which challenges the idea the apparition was a static historical imprint tied to old stair placement.

Gun Misfire Nearly Killed Roommate

  • A tenant nearly got killed when a gun left on the living room floor fired; the bullet passed within a foot of their head and lodged into a freezer behind the wall.
  • The boyfriend sold the gun afterward; the group told the absent roommate and vowed never to speak of the near-miss again.
ANECDOTE

Dream Of A Dangerous Spirit Parade

  • A listener described recurring vivid dreams of a spirit parade: three waves of figures (small masked, larger contorted-faced, then giant unmasked) that must not be interrupted.
  • In a repeat dream the partner broke the rule, was grabbed by a giant, and the dreamer later used a bead compass and a wedding-dress dwarf guide to rescue them from the spirit realm.
