• 0:06
  We're recording, Jerry, we're recording.
• 0:10
  We're coming back with another scripted corner.
• 0:17
  Seconds before this I had said decrepit corner, yeah, but.
• 0:23
  We're ballparking. We're ballparking names for
• 0:25
  these type of episodes. Every couple of episodes we will
• 0:29
  eventually come back to the supernatural.
• 0:32
  Yes, we will. So maybe it's the crypted
• 0:35
  corner, the decrypt, the wait, what did you say?
• 0:39
  Decrypted corner? And we're going to talk about
• 0:41
  some spooky things. Because after reading like 1000
• 0:46
  comments saying we want spooky, we want spooky, we're back, we
• 0:50
  have to bring it. Back.
• 0:51
  Yeah, we're going to give you what you want, which is more
• 0:54
  spooky stuff. No one asked for it.
• 0:55
  I asked for it, and that's all that matters.
• 0:57
  That's true because why our podcast?
• 1:00
  And my voice is louder than yours.
• 1:03
  I just scream into the mic, no. Not you.
• 1:06
  I meant the people listening. I can't hear what they're
• 1:08
  saying. Look, they say something right
• 1:11
  now. I don't hear them.
• 1:14
  Did you hear them? No, I didn't hear them.
• 1:16
  Because I'm louder. Speak louder.
• 1:17
  Speak up. Speak up.
• 1:20
  What color are your underwear wrong?
• 1:22
  Stop. Good morning, good afternoon,
• 1:27
  good evening, good night. Whatever time it is that we're
• 1:30
  recording this on Thursday and bringing straight to your ears,
• 1:34
  we're happy you're here and you're listening.
• 1:35
  We're. Very happy you're here.
• 1:36
  Thank you for tuning in. How was your week, Jay it?
• 1:40
  Was very cool. It was my mom's birthday over
• 1:41
  the weekend, celebrated at my mom's.
• 1:43
  Y'all were there obviously it was fun.
• 1:46
  Got the the seafood, fish tacos and.
• 1:48
  So you got a lot of food. A lot of food to see and then
• 1:53
  Sunday, you know, I had to do some stuff, but overall went to
• 1:57
  the river Ohio. You have your days wrong.
• 2:00
  Sunday was your mom. 'S Dang, see I don't even.
• 2:02
  I thought today was Tuesday. We had a long weekend, yeah.
• 2:05
  Monday we, we had memories memorized.
• 2:08
  We memorized stuff. We.
• 2:09
  Memorized stuff. Thank you to everyone that we
• 2:11
  memorized on Monday. Yeah, yeah.
• 2:14
  We went to the river, had a really good time.
• 2:16
  It was so. Fun that water was so.
• 2:18
  I would love to go again soon. I'm down and I'm down to go
• 2:24
  earlier. I think just because it was
• 2:25
  Memorial Day, it was the reason why there was a lot of people.
• 2:28
  Yeah. But if we go like on a random
• 2:29
  day where we do get that section, that was like pretty
• 2:32
  deep. Yeah.
• 2:32
  I think that would be fun too. We did go pretty early.
• 2:35
  You had me waking up at like 7:30 on my day off just to hang
• 2:39
  out with you. Say I don't care, it was worth
• 2:42
  it. Try to tell me I don't care.
• 2:43
  It was worth it. It was we've been meaning to do
• 2:45
  that. We we keep saying river, let's
• 2:46
  go to the river, let's go to the river.
• 2:48
  We never do and we did it. That's.
• 2:49
  Really funny because it was just an offhand comment after we
• 2:52
  recorded last episode. Like river, like what are we
• 2:56
  going to do? We should do something.
• 2:57
  And Jerry said the river, which is so funny.
• 3:00
  And I mentioned it to my Co worker Alexa, that yeah, we're
• 3:04
  going to go to the river. But I don't know why.
• 3:05
  I'd just be telling everyone your business of how you're
• 3:08
  scared of water. Just.
• 3:11
  And she was like, tell Jerry that he can drown in just two
• 3:14
  inches of water. Trust me, I almost did.
• 3:16
  I almost did. It was when you guys went to go
• 3:18
  read on the books. Oh, I was like, oh, my bookmark
• 3:22
  fell and as soon as I went out to like reach for it, bam, I'm
• 3:25
  into the water, almost died and none of you guys came to.
• 3:27
  Why? Ask you why did we think it'd be
• 3:28
  fine to leave you unattended? I didn't even realize you guys
• 3:32
  should know me by now, but I survived.
• 3:34
  Y'all, I'm here again. Yeah.
• 3:38
  Did not drown this time. No, if anything, like he came
• 3:41
  back wiser, he learned some things.
• 3:43
  I learned not to get close to the water.
• 3:44
  Yeah, once and for. All and we learned how to build
• 3:47
  a dam. We did build a dam.
• 3:49
  We built a dam which made the water level rise, which is why I
• 3:52
  almost died in three inches of. Water.
• 3:54
  I I know it was a word. We set ourselves up.
• 3:56
  We set you up. Yeah, and then you guys just
• 3:58
  left left me to my demise. We.
• 4:00
  Had to go read our books in the sun.
• 4:01
  We're in our book era after last week's episode.
• 4:05
  It was really nice, you guys went on rocks to read and I just
• 4:08
  stayed in the chair lounge and all to myself.
• 4:11
  What are you reading these days? The Lord of the Rings, The
• 4:14
  Fellowship of the Ring. It was really nice.
• 4:17
  I put on some jazz. It's really, really quiet.
• 4:19
  Also enjoying the nature sounds of birds.
• 4:22
  But the book was good. It's getting good, It's getting
• 4:24
  good. Honestly, there's one thing Mr.
• 4:26
  Jerry knows how to do is just set the mood.
• 4:29
  Thank you. We we left, we were playing like
• 4:32
  just random music, like some pop, some Spanish music.
• 4:35
  And then when we come back from our little excursion of reading
• 4:39
  on some rocks, Jerry's there with some jazz music playing,
• 4:43
  just tapping his little foot, reading his book.
• 4:45
  You like jazz? It was fun.
• 4:46
  We had some sandwiches, we had some chips.
• 4:50
  And cookies. And some cookies, some
• 4:52
  caprisons. We had some rocks stuck in our
• 4:56
  shoes. We did.
• 4:57
  At least that was me. I wanted my Crocs.
• 4:59
  Rocks stuck in other places. Oh no, not me.
• 5:03
  I knew better than to get in the water.
• 5:04
  Me neither. What?
• 5:09
  That was so good. Oh, that was ASMR and I heard
• 5:13
  it. Live.
• 5:15
  What about you, Brian? Anything else you want to add to
• 5:17
  the weekend? And when I got breakfast with my
• 5:20
  mom on Saturday, my brother, he's graduating soon.
• 5:24
  Congrats. He got a job.
• 5:25
  He came down here to do some training.
• 5:26
  So it was nice to see him and my mom.
• 5:28
  Nice. And then later that day I got I
• 5:30
  got looped into an adventure I did not expect to have.
• 5:33
  I wanted to see. I grabbed coffee after with
• 5:36
  Anthony, Joe and Andrew and Anthony's like, do you want to
• 5:40
  come help me decorate my office? And I'm like, so less.
• 5:43
  Those are my favorite words like.
• 5:45
  You're like a. Give me like a HDTV show.
• 5:49
  Yeah, like interior design, like.
• 5:51
  That was about to say that. Like I'm a house flipper.
• 5:53
  Unofficial. Official interior designer.
• 5:55
  So I said bet, let's go. And what I didn't know and that
• 5:58
  they failed to mention was that he was not redecorating his
• 6:02
  office. He was fully moving, like
• 6:05
  swapping offices with someone else.
• 6:07
  So he got you. They put me to work.
• 6:09
  I was organizing books, moving some furniture.
• 6:12
  I just spent a couple of a couple of minutes just just
• 6:14
  watching, try to catch. My breath.
• 6:17
  You weren't prepared, you know, and that's OK.
• 6:19
  Was it? But it was honestly, it was
• 6:21
  really fun and me and Andrew just kind of like.
• 6:24
  Loopty loopty looped around. Well, Joey Anthony did the hard
• 6:28
  work, but it was cool. I ended up because he said if
• 6:32
  you see any, he had like not an exaggeration, like 200 books.
• 6:35
  And he said if anything you find interesting, like stands out,
• 6:39
  please, by all means grab it. Read it.
• 6:41
  So I got a bunch of books on like LGBT stuff, the male body,
• 6:46
  just a lot of like interesting nonfiction gotcha that I've
• 6:51
  never really read. Is that the book you were
• 6:53
  reading up to the river? Yeah.
• 6:55
  It was about like the the male body through like media in
• 6:58
  America. It's very interesting.
• 7:00
  That's cool. But yeah, maybe now I'm going to
• 7:02
  like read to learn stuff instead of just smut.
• 7:06
  Heavy on the maybe. Heavy on the maybe.
• 7:08
  Oh, OK, OK. I was going to say, wow, that's
• 7:09
  very that was very you were very sure at that statement.
• 7:13
  I will keep to my fantasy and my hobbits and Wizards and.
• 7:18
  Well, you have a whole a whole adventure ahead of you, yeah.
• 7:21
  This is just book one. Yeah, I'm ready.
• 7:23
  I've been ready. OK, aside from that, honestly
• 7:27
  didn't really do much. Stayed home Friday, Friday
• 7:31
  night, Saturday night. That's that's pretty much it
• 7:36
  honestly, pretty low key weekend.
• 7:37
  Yeah, it was nice to. Relax, it's really nice.
• 7:39
  I love weekends like that. What about you, listener?
• 7:42
  How was your weekend? Yeah, great.
• 7:44
  Next. Yeah.
• 7:46
  Next time speak up a little louder.
• 7:47
  We can't really you. Still can't hear?
• 7:48
  You need to speak up. So, Jerry, we're back.
• 7:52
  We're back with another decrepit corner, with a decrepit corner
• 7:57
  pair of decrepit. Here's how things are going to
• 7:59
  work. Every couple episodes, not every
• 8:03
  other episode. We we really want to branch out.
• 8:05
  We're a variety show. We come at you with a bunch of
• 8:07
  different things. Yeah.
• 8:07
  You think we're going right? We're going left.
• 8:09
  Yes, but sometimes you come across things that you just need
• 8:13
  to discuss and research and talk about.
• 8:16
  Yeah. And for me, brought to you by
• 8:19
  TikTok is the vampires of New Orleans.
• 8:25
  One TikTok sent me down the spiral.
• 8:27
  Can't wait to discuss. Can't wait to share with you
• 8:29
  everything I learned because I did some research.
• 8:33
  I think you're prepared to share.
• 8:34
  I can go first. Let's switch it this time, OK?
• 8:38
  OK, please. Jerry, I'm not ready.
• 8:40
  I left my iPad out there. I'll get every.
• 8:43
  I'll be back. Guys, I thought I was ready, but
• 8:46
  now I'm. I'm stressed.
• 8:48
  OK? Jerry told me not to misbehave.
• 8:53
  Guys, you got real quiet. What he doesn't know is that I
• 8:58
  see his shadow. Oh, my God.
• 9:02
  Jerry put that away. He he took out.
• 9:06
  Yeah, some really good dance moves.
• 9:10
  I'm back. OK, we're back, we're ready, I
• 9:15
  have my notes. Nice.
• 9:17
  So as stated previously, my topic for this week was brought
• 9:23
  to you by TikTok. Stories of first hand
• 9:27
  experiences with vampires have recently trended on TikTok.
• 9:31
  This is what sparked my initial curiosity and desire to dive
• 9:34
  into the history of vampires in New Orleans.
• 9:36
  In New Orleans. OK, So what sent me down the
• 9:40
  rabbit hole was this story time video by TikTok creator Fat Girl
• 9:46
  Freestyle. That is your name.
• 9:47
  Please. Let's go look her up because
• 9:49
  she's going to give you her full story.
• 9:52
  I'm just going to give you a brief summary.
• 9:53
  The video I think was like 10 minutes long.
• 9:55
  That's all we got time for. So her name is Kimberly.
• 9:59
  She starts off the video stating that she wants to share the
• 10:02
  story about the time she met a vampire.
• 10:06
  She starts off by saying that she's a rideshare driver in the
• 10:09
  city of New Orleans. So like Lyft, Uber, pick up
• 10:12
  people, take them where they need to go.
• 10:14
  Got to take them where they go. However, she recounts one
• 10:18
  strange ride a few years back where she picked up a very
• 10:22
  mysterious woman. She says she cannot recall what
• 10:25
  she looked like, but she can remember her voice and the
• 10:29
  conversation. The only visual she can recall
• 10:32
  is the woman's mouth and the hand she placed on the driver's
• 10:35
  shoulder. Nope.
• 10:38
  Nope, she did not know that we keep our hands to ourselves.
• 10:40
  But first of all, that's the first.
• 10:42
  Especially your driver. You're just like here.
• 10:45
  No. Don't.
• 10:46
  Don't come here. Let me touch you, Jerry.
• 10:47
  Let me touch. You just my shoulder.
• 10:48
  Don't touch my Jerry, give me your shoulder.
• 10:50
  Fucking hell. They have small talk.
• 10:54
  They have small. They have some small talk and
• 10:56
  the passenger comments on Kimberly's energy.
• 11:00
  As stated previously, at one point the passenger touches her
• 11:04
  shoulder. Kimberly felt frozen with her
• 11:06
  hands on the wheel and realized that the car was not moving.
• 11:11
  She then heard the passenger's voice tell her.
• 11:14
  Don't be scared, I won't harm you.
• 11:18
  Sure. After raising her hand, the car
• 11:23
  began to move again. Kimberly turned around and
• 11:27
  asked. What did you do to me?
• 11:30
  Passenger responds by saying I just leeched some of your
• 11:35
  energy. I'm a vampire.
• 11:39
  I'm ending this ride, get the fuck out of my car.
• 11:42
  Imagine you're getting picked up and you're gonna go to the
• 11:45
  downtown area, gonna go have some drinks and like the person
• 11:51
  in the car is just like. I took some of your energy.
• 11:54
  I took some of your energy. I'm a vampire.
• 11:58
  Negative. I was negative, sorry.
• 11:59
  She she has more patience than than I have because what do you
• 12:02
  mean? If someone said that to me, I'd
• 12:03
  be scared. I'd be like, girl, what do you
• 12:06
  mean? Throwing punches.
• 12:08
  I'm just I'm putting the car in park.
• 12:10
  I'm not. I'm leaving in the car in drive
• 12:11
  and I'm turning around and I'm just swinging.
• 12:12
  I'm like, give me my energy back.
• 12:15
  We're opening the door and we're we're, what is it?
• 12:17
  I'm. Tumbling.
• 12:17
  Yeah, I'm tumbling, I'm tumbling.
• 12:19
  We're tussling. We're tussle on it.
• 12:21
  Whatever Robitussin, anyway. So she says I'm a vampire.
• 12:26
  The passenger tells Kimberly that she's not the type of
• 12:29
  vampire that drinks blood, yet those do exist but are very rare
• 12:34
  these days. She's a vampire that feeds off
• 12:38
  energy just by touching. She continues telling Kimberly
• 12:42
  that New Orleans is the perfect place for her and her kind to
• 12:47
  exist. She's not the only one over here
• 12:50
  stuck in your vibes. They're a vibe vampire.
• 12:54
  Dude, think of it. You know how sometimes you're
• 12:56
  like, you're walking and like someone's walking in your
• 13:00
  direction, but you're trying to be like, Nah, they're, they're
• 13:02
  going to move, but then they bump into you?
• 13:04
  What if that's intentional and they steal some of your, they
• 13:07
  steal your energy. There was a separate TikTok I
• 13:10
  saw of this guy in New Orleans was going viral because he was
• 13:15
  telling everyone around him, oh, I can tell you your future.
• 13:18
  Just bump me in the elbow. That's so smart.
• 13:22
  Do you know what that lore is though with elbow bumping?
• 13:24
  No. If you bump elbows with someone,
• 13:27
  I guess it means that you swap fates with that person.
• 13:33
  Whoa. So whatever was planned for your
• 13:35
  life, once you bump elbows with that person, they swap.
• 13:40
  That's crazy. So the comments are saying that
• 13:43
  he was trying to improve his life by trying to bump elbows
• 13:46
  with someone. Whoa.
• 13:48
  If it's voodoo, I don't know what kind of like like culture
• 13:52
  it is that that's a belief, but. That.
• 13:55
  Well, again came because I would have been deep diving like New
• 13:58
  Orleans stuff. But it has to be like a direct,
• 14:00
  like elbow to elbow, like bump. It can't be like a you.
• 14:03
  I'm bumping my elbow into you, I'm suspecting.
• 14:05
  How often have you to your mind, have you just like hit elbow to
• 14:09
  elbow with someone? Never.
• 14:12
  That's like you have to like try.
• 14:13
  Yeah, that's very intentional. You have to like turn your arm
• 14:16
  around and yeah, yeah, that's crazy.
• 14:19
  I didn't even know that was a thing.
• 14:20
  So I don't know if that man is just also like trying to suck
• 14:24
  vibes off of you. Take your good energy.
• 14:27
  But that's what she said, that her kind exist in New Orleans
• 14:30
  and it's perfect for them. So stories of vampires in New
• 14:36
  Orleans date back to the city's early days as a French colony.
• 14:41
  The area surrounding the city was colonized by France in 1682.
• 14:45
  Sit down. You're about to get a history
• 14:46
  lesson, OK? Known natively as Balbancha by
• 14:50
  its indigenous residents. What did you call me?
• 14:52
  Just give me Balbancha. The community was built on the
• 14:55
  rich delta lands between the Mississippi River and Lake
• 14:58
  Pontchartrain. The city itself was founded by
• 15:02
  Jean Baptiste Lemoire. I know I had to study how to say
• 15:06
  that. Wow, I.
• 15:07
  See the creator of the lemon. No, no.
• 15:11
  Explain a lemoire. No.
• 15:16
  It was founded in 1718 and would become the capital of the French
• 15:19
  colony of Louisiana by 1723. What is important to note is
• 15:25
  that a majority of the French settlers in Louisiana were
• 15:28
  outcast. Many of the initial residents
• 15:31
  were criminals, thousands of which were sent to Louisiana as
• 15:34
  forced laborers. They were promised freedom
• 15:37
  should they survive the first few years.
• 15:39
  This soon proved to be a major problem in regards to expansion.
• 15:43
  Almost all of the colonists were men.
• 15:48
  They put a bunch of dudes on a boat and said go figure it out.
• 15:52
  Crazy. Yeah, it was literally just a
• 15:54
  sausage party. On a boat.
• 15:57
  On a boat and on land once it hit Louisiana.
• 16:01
  Louisiana. The settlers had no game with
• 16:06
  the native women. I've got a boat full of guys.
• 16:10
  I wonder why? Any sort of intermingling had
• 16:13
  been barred by indigenous leaders.
• 16:15
  The sausage fest finally came to an end under King Louis the 14th
• 16:19
  and 1719 dubbed the King's Daughters.
• 16:23
  Women as young as 14 years old were drafted solely on their
• 16:26
  ability to be married off. Around 800 women were initially
• 16:30
  sent to Canadian territories. Deemed an outstanding success up
• 16:35
  north, the governor of Louisiana would request his own shipments
• 16:38
  of brides to his territory. That's crazy.
• 16:44
  That's like never, never how they came across that
• 16:47
  information. Dude, they, they, they invented
• 16:49
  mail order brides. Just like, yo, I need my
• 16:52
  shipment, let's go. Yo, we got a couple little man
• 16:54
  over here. Got some po boys.
• 16:56
  Is that from Louisiana? Po boys.
• 16:59
  I have no idea. That's a sandwich, I think.
• 17:01
  Yeah, I know. Where po boys?
• 17:02
  No, that's like Massachusetts. Is that Boston?
• 17:06
  Maybe. OK, someone in the audience, do
• 17:09
  your research and then tell us. Where's the sandwich from?
• 17:11
  Not important. Anyway, a group of 258 girls
• 17:15
  were gathered from the country's prisons, poor houses and
• 17:18
  orphanages. Deemed as unfit by the settlers,
• 17:21
  many were refused marriage. In 1928, a new group of girls
• 17:26
  with more acceptable qualities would be sent to New Orleans.
• 17:30
  This group, known as the Casket Girls, would eventually lead to
• 17:34
  the first cases of suspected vampirism in the city.
• 17:37
  It's a great band name. The casket girls were orphans
• 17:40
  with respectable backgrounds who had been hand picked for their
• 17:44
  journey across the ocean. They were sent with all of their
• 17:47
  belongings in big wooden trunks known in French as cassettes,
• 17:53
  which would later be anglicized into the word casket casket.
• 17:58
  They sent these girls on a boat with these big wooden trunks
• 18:02
  with a bunch of stuff that they would need once they would get
• 18:05
  married, which was like sewing supplies, materials, stuff that
• 18:10
  would make you like a good housewife.
• 18:11
  And they said you're taking that with you.
• 18:13
  Go find your husband. It's your starter pack.
• 18:15
  Yeah, it's your starter. Pack that's insane.
• 18:18
  After months out at sea, the woman who stepped off the boat
• 18:21
  were pale faced, described as having an otherworldly
• 18:24
  complexion kept far below deck. They were not known to see
• 18:29
  daylight the entire trip. Unable to find partners, they
• 18:33
  ultimately found themselves living with a convoy of nuns at
• 18:36
  the Ursuline convent. The nuns are explicitly told
• 18:41
  that the trunks are to remain closed until the women have been
• 18:44
  married. You got these big, big wooden
• 18:48
  boxes. You can't open.
• 18:49
  These that you can't open them. They travel with the girls but
• 18:52
  don't open them until they're married.
• 18:54
  Like why are these like human sized?
• 18:57
  And remember, none of them got married.
• 18:59
  Nope. Known as one of the oldest
• 19:03
  structures in New Orleans, the three story convent was
• 19:06
  completed in 1753. The sisters who inhabited the
• 19:09
  convent ran an orphanage, Infirmary and a school on the
• 19:13
  first floor of the building. They themselves lived on the 2nd
• 19:16
  floor. The third floor attic housed the
• 19:18
  casket girls with their large caskets sitting at the foot of
• 19:21
  their beds. Legend states that the arrival
• 19:27
  of the girls was synchronous with mysterious debts in the
• 19:31
  city. Around this time, reports of
• 19:34
  missing people start to spread. Bodies are said to be found
• 19:38
  completely drained of blood. Fingers began to point at the
• 19:41
  pale, sickly looking girl's house at the Ursuline convent
• 19:45
  one night. The nuns eventually tore open
• 19:48
  the caskets, only to find them completely empty.
• 19:53
  No trace of the aforementioned belongings.
• 19:55
  Insight. So it took a couple, you know.
• 20:02
  A blood, bloodless bodies. Bloodless bodies for the nuns
• 20:05
  and the people to be like Nope, hey let's do an inspection.
• 20:08
  These weird looking girls, what's in these boxes?
• 20:11
  Ones that we stick in the attic and they don't go outside.
• 20:14
  They never see daylight. That's wild.
• 20:16
  What if they opened him and it was just like a like a feather
• 20:18
  pillow and like some nice comforter and it's like.
• 20:22
  I'd rather that than like hold, hey, there's a bunch of stuff in
• 20:25
  here and you finally open it and not that.
• 20:27
  There's nothing. Rumors began to swirl that the
• 20:30
  girls had smuggled in vampires in their caskets.
• 20:34
  These girls had brought something evil with them from
• 20:37
  the Old Country. The nuns, terrified that they
• 20:40
  had been tricked into housing vampires under their noses,
• 20:43
  kicked out the casket girls. However, their caskets remained.
• 20:50
  They told them to get out and leave.
• 20:52
  Your caskets up your caskets. One night, in an attempt to kill
• 20:58
  off the vampires, the third floor windows were permanently
• 21:02
  sealed. Citizens hoped that the vampires
• 21:05
  would die in the morning light if they were unable to return to
• 21:08
  their caskets. The windows were shut closed
• 21:11
  with 800 screws made of silver, allegedly blessed by the Pope
• 21:16
  himself. It is also alleged that Pope
• 21:19
  John Paul the Second re blessed the screws during a visit in
• 21:23
  1987. The Vatican is in on this to
• 21:29
  this day. The third floor windows remained
• 21:32
  nailed shut. The convent is now a museum and
• 21:35
  the third floor attic remains off limits.
• 21:40
  So what I what played in my head was the Pope being sent like
• 21:43
  this shipment of 800 silver screws.
• 21:46
  And he's like, like, oh, Pope, go ahead, bless you.
• 21:49
  He's like, why am I doing it for Louisiana?
• 21:51
  Oh, right away. Yeah.
• 21:52
  And then just. You know the vampires.
• 21:54
  You know, the vampires, Louisiana.
• 21:55
  Oh yeah, for sure. Got it, of course, of course.
• 21:57
  Got it. Bam.
• 21:58
  All in Italian, But yes, of course he's throwing his little
• 22:01
  holy juice at the nails. Holy juice, Holy juice in the
• 22:06
  incense. Oh that is wild.
• 22:09
  But like but what if it? I have so many questions.
• 22:13
  OK, go. OK, a popular story revolving
• 22:15
  the convent and its vampires dates back to the 1970s.
• 22:19
  A ghost hunting couple visited the grounds with the intent of
• 22:22
  finding evidence of paranormal activity.
• 22:24
  In 1978, the investigators had taken a tour of the building and
• 22:29
  decided to hold a stake out that night in an attempt to capture a
• 22:33
  vampire sighting. They set up cameras, pointed at
• 22:36
  the third floor windows, and waited.
• 22:39
  And waited. And waited.
• 22:42
  Eventually they fell asleep, falling victim to the late night
• 22:45
  hours. The following morning, their
• 22:49
  lifeless bodies were found drained of their blood.
• 22:51
  Oh my, drink a Red Bull, drink a monster or something.
• 22:55
  Listen, Red Bull gives you wings.
• 22:57
  You could have just flown up there.
• 22:57
  That's what I'm saying and. Knocked on the Windows Hello.
• 23:00
  Let me. In we fell asleep.
• 23:04
  It also says that they had cameras pointing recording the
• 23:07
  windows at night time, but that the cameras just slowly just
• 23:10
  fade to black. Damn so they they suck the
• 23:15
  energy off of camera juice the the battery?
• 23:17
  But you know how lore goes. Nothing I read gave me the names
• 23:21
  of these people, any kind of information.
• 23:23
  It's just tied as a popular story about the vampire convent.
• 23:28
  Yeah, the theory of vampires living in New Orleans has
• 23:32
  survived throughout history. In the 1930's, the Carter
• 23:35
  brothers are one of the most infamously suspected vampires of
• 23:38
  the time. According to local lore, John
• 23:41
  and Wayne Carter were responsible for a string of
• 23:43
  disappearances in the French Quarter.
• 23:46
  Once police had raided their apartment, it is alleged that
• 23:49
  they found four people tied up, completely drained of their
• 23:52
  blood. They also discovered a makeshift
• 23:55
  prison where the victims were held captive before being
• 23:57
  drained. The brothers were then captured
• 24:00
  and executed. Death however, did not stop the
• 24:04
  brothers terror. They supposedly escaped their
• 24:06
  tombs after their burial. Wow, they're peace.
• 24:15
  Peace. You thought.
• 24:16
  You got us. You thought, you thought.
• 24:18
  We played dead. We just left our breath on me.
• 24:21
  You've heard of opossums? Yeah, we learned it from them.
• 24:24
  They froze it like that, the the stereotypical vampire pose like
• 24:27
  nose Ferrari. Yep.
• 24:30
  And guess what? They're back out.
• 24:31
  And they're back out. What was the Carter Brothers?
• 24:34
  The Carter brothers John, John and Wayne, John Wayne, Carter,
• 24:38
  Carter, John and Wayne. It's two brothers but yes.
• 24:42
  John Wayne John Wayne the Vampire.
• 24:44
  John Wayne the Vampire. John and Wayne Carter so.
• 24:50
  Where does that lead us today? Apparently to lift passengers
• 24:54
  that suck off your good vibes. Searching up vampires on TikTok
• 24:59
  leads you down a multitude of rabbit holes.
• 25:01
  Goth clad individuals who are self-proclaimed blood suckers.
• 25:06
  Short form history lessons on the casket girls, the immortal
• 25:09
  Jacques St. Germain, Dracula, or thirst.
• 25:13
  Edits of Anne Rice's interview with the vampire actors.
• 25:16
  Nice, that's my personal favorite.
• 25:19
  I've seen the movie. The movie's great.
• 25:21
  The movie is a cult classic. Yeah, dude, you need to watch
• 25:23
  the show. The show is so good I've.
• 25:25
  Heard nothing but good things of the show and I will watch it.
• 25:28
  And the actors are beautiful. Laurent with his beautiful
• 25:31
  blonde hair. You would like.
• 25:32
  You would like him. I've I've, I've seen like one or
• 25:35
  two episodes with you. I think we started it.
• 25:36
  Oh yeah. I.
• 25:37
  Didn't finish it. We didn't.
• 25:39
  I've finished it. That's becoming.
• 25:40
  A repetitive thing, Jimmy. I suck at watching things, but
• 25:44
  that's a different story. That's for another day.
• 25:46
  You suck blood. 00 or vibes or vibes.
• 25:51
  It's like your vibes. With so much content about
• 25:54
  vampires and popular media, it's easy to get wrapped in the lure
• 25:57
  of immortal beings that walk the night.
• 25:59
  In modern times, vampires have been presented to us as sexy,
• 26:02
  mysterious, synonymous with the fears and wonders of what lies
• 26:06
  in the shadows of night. Vampire lore is deeply rooted in
• 26:10
  the fear of the unknown. What could exist in a world
• 26:13
  where life and death aren't all that they seem?
• 26:15
  Wow. Yep.
• 26:17
  That's the story of the casket girls and then emotionally
• 26:20
  sucking vampires. I do please wish for you guys to
• 26:25
  listen to this lady story. She tells it way better than I
• 26:28
  do. It's her first hand account.
• 26:31
  That's great. What's her name?
• 26:32
  Again, her name is Kimberly but her TikTok is Fat girl Freestyle
• 26:37
  freestyle. So I'd love to give you that
• 26:39
  little story, but there are some points I have to give to debunk
• 26:45
  some things. So the timeline does not match
• 26:50
  up. According to multiple sources,
• 26:53
  the casket girls I believe were said to have arrived in 1728,
• 26:58
  but the the convent that the nuns house them in was built
• 27:04
  like a good 20 years later. So that timeline doesn't really
• 27:07
  match. The nuns would have had to have
• 27:09
  housed the caskets and the girls for years without raising any
• 27:11
  kind of suspicion prior to moving to the Ursuline convent.
• 27:15
  However, to counter the counter argument, there are reports that
• 27:22
  the nuns, who had been living in temporary housing prior to
• 27:26
  having their convent, held a parade once their convent had
• 27:31
  had been built and ready to move in.
• 27:33
  So they paraded down the city of New Orleans with the casket.
• 27:37
  Girls, children dressed as angels and intermixed people
• 27:42
  were carrying the caskets in the light of day to the new the the
• 27:48
  new their new home. Their new Yeah once again like a
• 27:55
  writers room like what like OK, how are.
• 27:57
  These caskets, yeah. Tour to the third level.
• 27:59
  Yeah, so people don't don't question it.
• 28:01
  A parade children dressed with Angel wings.
• 28:04
  Make it look wholesome, people. Carrying the caskets so no one
• 28:07
  questions it, yeah. There's also more probable
• 28:10
  causes to the mysterious deaths of the time and the eerie
• 28:14
  visuals of the casket Girls. Women were typically seen as bad
• 28:18
  luck to have on a ship, especially during that time,
• 28:20
  which is why they would spend a majority of their time hidden
• 28:23
  under the deck. So they would spend months just
• 28:27
  not seeing daylight. Like the trip was I think three
• 28:29
  to four months on a boat. They had very limited food, no
• 28:34
  access to like clean drinking water.
• 28:38
  You mean to tell me 3 months in not seeing daylight?
• 28:41
  You're gonna look as hot and sexy as you.
• 28:42
  Did when you got that? That was one of my questions.
• 28:44
  Like earlier. Like these girls look so sickly
• 28:47
  and pale. Yeah, they've been in.
• 28:49
  They've been on about under deck for fucking three months.
• 28:51
  Like malnourished and wow vampires.
• 28:54
  Specifically malnourished, They ate the bare minimum, didn't
• 28:58
  have anything to drink, and a few of them even caught
• 29:01
  tuberculosis, a symptom of which is coughing up blood.
• 29:05
  There you go. So imagine a pale, ghostly
• 29:09
  looking woman stepping off the ship with like a blood around
• 29:13
  her mouth. Of course that's going to lead
• 29:15
  to like, they're vampires, they're drinking blood.
• 29:20
  Wow. That didn't go into the fact
• 29:22
  that you know what, people probably die on this on the
• 29:24
  boat. So that helps feel like feel
• 29:27
  rumors, like they drank their blood, they threw them off.
• 29:30
  They didn't survive, they didn't make it.
• 29:32
  You said you had questions earlier.
• 29:37
  Yeah, these these silly questions just like as you were
• 29:39
  saying some things like, OK, who was the OR the people, the
• 29:43
  person in charge of selecting these women to send over?
• 29:47
  What were the requirements? That were OK.
• 29:50
  Or you have answers. Well, I have.
• 29:52
  Some answers from what I remember reading, but one source
• 29:55
  said that they were handpicked by the king himself so if it
• 29:59
  wasn't him it was probably his like his entourage like his
• 30:02
  court or something. But they also picked women.
• 30:07
  They it wasn't like a freedom of choice thing.
• 30:09
  Like if they told you you're going for sure.
• 30:12
  And of course they're not sending their women who are
• 30:16
  doing well in society. They went through orphanages.
• 30:19
  They also sent sex workers. They sent just people who didn't
• 30:24
  really have it have a good life out there.
• 30:27
  Same with the men. Like most of the men were
• 30:28
  criminals. And they send them out there
• 30:30
  like you have to build up the territory and then you'll get
• 30:33
  your freedom. At the same time, they're, like,
• 30:35
  getting rid of them from their own place, like back in France.
• 30:38
  Yeah. So the only qualities they
• 30:40
  wanted was that you were young enough to get married and have
• 30:43
  children because the main thing was to populate territory.
• 30:46
  Yeah. Wow, that's crazy.
• 30:50
  And then like at the time, like how do you hear about this?
• 30:52
  So like if you're like the the Louisiana, I don't.
• 30:55
  Know, I think it was a governor, I think I read that, but it was
• 30:58
  also just a colony so. It's like he just like had a
• 30:59
  friend from. Oh yeah?
• 31:01
  Well, they were all interconnected.
• 31:02
  The whole thing was like, we're expanding France westward to the
• 31:05
  New World. That's right.
• 31:06
  That's right. That's right.
• 31:07
  So everything past that ocean is new world.
• 31:09
  They had Quebec in like the Canada area, that's where they
• 31:14
  sent the 1st 800 women and it worked like they were able to
• 31:18
  like expand. They were having children, they
• 31:19
  were able to settle. So they said, well, we're gonna
• 31:22
  do the same thing down here. Didn't work.
• 31:25
  I mean, eventually, eventually it worked.
• 31:26
  Like, yeah, I mean a huge. A lot of history with what
• 31:29
  happened with Louisiana, who it got sold to.
• 31:31
  Yeah, I think the Spanish owed it for a bit before finally it
• 31:34
  was sold to. The French.
• 31:36
  To no, no sold to the America the the Louisiana Purchase, but
• 31:41
  Yep, wow. Taking me back to 7th grade in
• 31:44
  Louisiana. Purchase.
• 31:45
  Wow. Wow.
• 31:46
  Well, that was awesome. That's a great story.
• 31:49
  And I know, I think I know the building you're talking about,
• 31:51
  like all the windows on top are like sealed shut.
• 31:54
  Yeah, just like at the attic. That's.
• 31:56
  Like, I don't know why it looked up an old timey picture.
• 31:58
  So like there's a modern day picture.
• 31:59
  Yeah, yeah. And I guess it's a a really
• 32:03
  popular like vampire tour spot. Yeah, and I and I have got those
• 32:07
  tik toks of like Louisiana vampires and stories and that's
• 32:12
  cool. Never heard of this version or
• 32:13
  anything from what you said. That's so cool.
• 32:16
  There's a lot on the casket girls.
• 32:18
  Some information I I got that wasn't from articles came from a
• 32:21
  video of this lady who did a full 30 minute like discussion
• 32:25
  and she does a very story driven.
• 32:27
  I highly recommend that. I'll put a link in the
• 32:31
  description so you guys can watch it but it's from a YouTube
• 32:33
  channel called the in Between. The title is the casket.
• 32:36

  also went with something that was popular on TikTok.
• 33:39
  I was, you know, I was thinking about first doing the encrypted
• 33:41
  and, you know, well, maybe that's in a future episode.
• 33:44
  But I've been getting hella creepy stuff on my TikTok at
• 33:47
  like 11 when I'm about to go to sleep and I'm just having to
• 33:50
  like swipe it because I'm like, I'm not gonna, this isn't going
• 33:53
  to be the the last thing I see before I close my eyes to go to
• 33:56
  sleep because then those would be having nightmares.
• 33:59
  And like she wakes me up and I wake up, I'm like, Oh my fucking

• 34:08
  you some just so. I that's why you started getting
• 34:10
  more of them. I know it's all good.
• 34:12
  I did this to myself. But today I will be talking
• 34:19
  about something extremely spine chilly.
• 34:22
  Did you feel that? Yeah.
• 34:23
  Dude, I got. Goosebumps.
• 34:27
  It's a topic many of us have experienced in our lives and
• 34:30
  have lived to tell the tale. You personally, we.
• 34:34
  Oh my God. We if the shoe fits where?
• 34:37
  Guys, maybe you hear yourself in this story.
• 34:42
  We were all kids once. Many of us still are.
• 34:45
  Just kidding, but I'm referring to being a little badass kid
• 34:50
  crying, kicking and screaming at the store because you want a
• 34:55
  candy or a toy and the adult you're with is over it and
• 34:58
  they're tired of your shit. And if you're still with me,
• 35:01
  yes, I'm talking about the phrase mita devaya barsa senor.
• 35:05
  What, Jerry? This phrase originate I'm just,
• 35:09
  I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
• 35:11
  Dude, I was like on the edge of my seat.
• 35:15
  OK I had to start it off like that because I wanted to break
• 35:17
  the ice. I don't know how scary your
• 35:18
  topic was going to be, but this perfect vampires are great so
• 35:21
  the. Phrase If you don't know, wait,
• 35:23
  wait, you are going to talk about the signor, right?
• 35:26
  I'm not talking about that. No, I'm just.
• 35:27
  Feeling I'm kidding with with Cryptid blue balls.
• 35:29
  I tried, I tried. There's nothing on it.
• 35:31
  It's just a bunch of tik toks. If you don't know the phrase
• 35:34
  meet at the Vaio versus senor is waiting.
• 35:37
  You got good. I was so.
• 35:41
  Excited. If you've heard that phrase, it
• 35:43
  translates to like, hey, like, look, that man is going to take
• 35:46
  you because you're acting bad or you're like being, I don't know,
• 35:50
  you're being out bad out in public at a store or wherever
• 35:52
  you're at. So like Mexican mom, maybe it
• 35:55
  was an older sibling. They'll just point at a random
• 35:58
  person and say, hey, they're going to take you if you keep
• 36:00
  acting like that. And then you look and you see a
• 36:03
  random person saying that you're like, oh, fuck, they're going to
• 36:05
  take me. Take them, take them.
• 36:11
  What's so funny is that that they point to us.
• 36:14
  Yes, we're the senor now, so it's an ever never ending tale.
• 36:19
  We're part of the cycle now. Oh my goodness.
• 36:22
  No, that's not what I'm talking about.
• 36:23
  Face hurts. I I did try to search up like, I
• 36:27
  don't know anything online to see if that's like a phrase
• 36:30
  that's been used for who knows. But no, there's nothing out
• 36:33
  there. You see how to break the ice,
• 36:35
  how to get a little giggle in us before we started getting into
• 36:37
  the scary shit. Terry, that was brilliant.
• 36:40
  Thank you. Thank you.
• 36:41
  Think I thought about that all day today.
• 36:42
  I've never been more impressed. OK, OK, so.
• 36:49
  This tale is about a doll, yes. I don't like it.
• 36:55
  It's been the center of one of the most chilling paranormal
• 36:58
  tales, the real Annabelle. We've seen The Conjuring, we've
• 37:03
  seen Annabelle, but many of us don't know the real tale, you
• 37:06
  know? And it's important because she's
• 37:08
  been trending on TikTok. So that's why I came across the
• 37:11
  Annabelle TikTok and the panic that she's missing.
• 37:14
  We'll get to that. But for now, let's get.
• 37:16
  Wait, she's she's really missing.
• 37:18
  Sorry to cut you off, but she's. We'll get to that.
• 37:22
  Oh my God. OK.
• 37:24
  So if you're picturing the porcelain doll with the glowing
• 37:29
  eyes, the sinister grin, you're thinking of the movie version.
• 37:31
  And no, she's not like that. It's scary, she's scary, she's a
• 37:35
  raggedy and doll. It's even.
• 37:37
  It's worse than that freaking movie.
• 37:38
  However, the that movie version was inspired by true events,
• 37:42
  suggesting the movie uses a real life event that's a starting
• 37:45
  point but takes significant creative liberties after adding
• 37:49
  fictional elements or characters.
• 37:51
  This is per filmindependent.org. So the real Annabelle is less
• 37:56
  glamorous, but I think way more terrifying.
• 37:59
  In 1970, a student nurse named Donna.
• 38:03
  This is where I where I agree with you that I don't get a lot
• 38:05
  of last names. I just get first name accounts,
• 38:07
  records of just first names. Donna.
• 38:10
  She was a student nurse. She received a raggedy and doll
• 38:13
  as a birthday gift from her mom. At first it was a quirky
• 38:16
  addition to her apartment, placing it on her bed.
• 38:19
  Then things starting to get wacky.
• 38:22
  Donna and her roommate Angie began noticing the doll moving
• 38:25
  on its own. It would change positions, it
• 38:28
  crossed a leg if it was on its side, and sometimes it was even
• 38:32
  standing. And these are all positions that
• 38:34
  were not like left Originally. She was placed sitting down and
• 38:38
  then next time they saw her she was in a different position.
• 38:41
  How does a raggedy and I'll stand?
• 38:44
  They're like floppy. I think it was like standing
• 38:47
  against something. So against the bed.
• 38:48
  So it was on the bed. It was standing on the pillow.
• 38:50
  Like standing against the pillow.
• 38:51
  Yeah. I.
• 38:52
  Like you turned the corner. Standing no and once again these
• 38:55
  are all just like stories and different sources cite you know
• 38:58
  similar things but it's just all Donna they they claim to see to
• 39:02
  have seen this Donna and her roommate Angie.
• 39:06
  They started seeing all these position changes.
• 39:08
  And according to the New England Society for Psychic Research,
• 39:13
  the creepiest part started about a month in when they began to
• 39:17
  find handwritten notes saying things like help us, help me
• 39:22
  help, Lou. This is cited through the New
• 39:26
  England Society for Psychic Research, which is directed by
• 39:30
  the son-in-law of Lorraine Warren, who was famous The
• 39:33
  Warrens. Yeah.
• 39:34
  So the son-in-law is now the director of this psychic
• 39:38
  research, you know, facility. Are they the ones from
• 39:41
  Amityville Heart also? I think so, yeah.
• 39:43
  The Warrens. Yeah.
• 39:44
  Ed and Lorraine Warren, the ghost hunters.
• 39:46
  Yes. There.
• 39:47
  Yeah. She's a medium.
• 39:48
  He's just a demonologist. And the New Haven Register.
• 39:53
  So the scary thing is that they claim that they did not own any
• 39:57
  parchment paper in the house. So which leads me to believe
• 40:00
  that the Raggedy and all Annabelle just had like a heard
• 40:03
  calligraphy set with her at all times.
• 40:06
  Deep in her pockets. Deep in her pockets with her
• 40:08
  custom quail and red blood red ink.
• 40:13
  No I'm kidding but this is what they claim to start to have
• 40:15
  start scene. So things escalated when Lou, a
• 40:19
  friend of theirs, woke up after taking a nap to find the doll
• 40:22
  staring at him. No, he felt like he was being
• 40:25
  strangled and when he checked he had deep scratch marks on his
• 40:28
  chest. Raggedy hand dolls don't have
• 40:31
  nails. But the demon does.
• 40:34
  A wave of fear washed over her as she examined the doll.
• 40:38
  This is Donna noticing what appeared to be drops of blood on
• 40:43
  the back of its hands and across its chest.
• 40:46
  Without warning, a red viscous substance had mysteriously
• 40:50
  appeared on the doll. It's probably her ink set.
• 40:54
  I know it leaked girl seal it tight.
• 40:57
  Terrified and unsure of what to do, Donna and Angie decided it
• 41:00
  was time to seek help from someone with experience in the
• 41:02
  supernatural. With no clear direction, they
• 41:05
  reached out to a medium, couldn't find a name who agreed
• 41:10
  to conduct a seance During the session, the medium introduced
• 41:13
  them to a spirit of a young girl named Annabelle Higgins, not the
• 41:18
  Will Ferrell. Wait.
• 41:20
  Your last name was Higgins. Higgins and not Gus Chiggins.
• 41:24
  Gus Chiggins, Annabelle Higgins, Oh.
• 41:28
  Girl. According to the medium,
• 41:30
  Annabelle had once lived in the on the land before the apartment
• 41:34
  complex was built. Her life had ended tragically.
• 41:38
  She was just seven years old when her lifeless body was
• 41:40
  discovered in a field where the building now stood.
• 41:44
  The spirit described those earlier days as happy times.
• 41:47
  Through the medium, Annabelle expressed that she felt
• 41:49
  comforted by Donna and Angie and wished to remain with them, to
• 41:53
  be cared for and loved. Moved by her story and filled
• 41:57
  with compassion, Donna gave the spirit permission to inhabit the
• 42:01
  DAW and stay in their home. First fucking mistake was
• 42:05
  keeping the dog. Yeah, why the fuck do you want a
• 42:08
  dog? Fuck that shit.
• 42:09
  That's scary as shit. Insane girl you can stay here as
• 42:11
  long as you want. You're.
• 42:12
  Good. Here you can see that room.
• 42:14
  Yeah, no offense. Yeah, no offense.
• 42:18
  Donna. Donna.
• 42:21
  The entity had that had attached itself to the dog was no spirit
• 42:24
  of a deceased child as it claimed to be, but rather an
• 42:27
  inhuman, demonic presence. According to demonology, such
• 42:31
  cases often unfold through a series of progressive stages
• 42:34
  designed to manipulate, weaken, and ultimately dominate the
• 42:39
  human host or environment. In this case, the entity was in
• 42:43
  the first stage, infestation. I will now be talking about the
• 42:47
  stages of an of a possession that leads to a possession.
• 42:52
  What? OK, wait, give me a second.
• 42:55
  Go ahead. OK, Donna and Lou are roommates.
• 42:59
  Lou was a friend. I guess he was visiting.
• 43:01
  OK. Donna and Angie are the
• 43:03
  roommates. They're nursing students or
• 43:05
  nurses. OK, but the doll was writing
• 43:09
  notes to Lou. Help Lou, Yeah.
• 43:11
  And this was the Help Lou was. I think I got that from the
• 43:16
  article from the New Haven Register.
• 43:19
  It says that they mentioned Help Lou.
• 43:22
  I also was looking at the website that is ran by the New
• 43:28
  England Society for Psychic Research, where the son-in-law
• 43:32
  of Lorraine Warren is the director.
• 43:34
  They also have their, like, research pictures of the notes.
• 43:39
  No. So this, Yeah, we'll get into
• 43:42
  the one. Can only help.
• 43:43
  Yeah, anytime you need solid, concrete evidence.
• 43:45
  OK sorry that was just me stalling while before you tell
• 43:48
  me about how demons freaking work.
• 43:50
  So. I should have lit a candle.
• 43:53
  No, that's creepy. Why would you light a candle?
• 43:55
  I'm going to light a candle. Don't light a fucking candle.
• 43:59
  You keep going. I'm going to light a.
• 44:00
  Candle No, I'm not going to keep reading to myself while you
• 44:02
  leave. Keep going.
• 44:03
  Keep going, I can. Hear you.
• 44:06
  I'm scared. Guys.
• 44:07
  You left. All right.
• 44:08
  Stage 1 infestation. This is the initial phase where
• 44:12
  a demonic spirit begins to manifest through external Whoop.
• 44:17
  You see, I'm already. No, I can't.
• 44:19
  I can't. This is the initial phase where
• 44:23
  a demonic spirit begins to manifest through external, often
• 44:27
  subtle disturbances in Donna and Angie's apartment.
• 44:30
  The handle not lighting. What does that?
• 44:33
  What does that mean? What does?
• 44:34
  What does it mean? What does it mean?
• 44:36
  Isn't it just the wax that's around the?
• 44:37
  Oh yeah, I thought it was something scary.
• 44:40
  Oh my God, I'm sorry. Keep going.
• 44:41
  OK, in Donna and Angie's apartment, this took the form of
• 44:45
  a doll mysteriously moving from room to room, a phenomenon
• 44:48
  resembling teleportation. These events were not at random,
• 44:52
  they were calculated to provoke curiosity and recognition from
• 44:56
  the occupants, which in turn feeds the entity's power.
• 45:00
  Recognition acts as an invitation, consciously or
• 45:03
  unconsciously opening a door for further influence.
• 45:07
  You notice that shit? Just Nope.
• 45:09
  Ignore that. Shit.
• 45:10
  So by noticing it, you're powering it by acknowledging it.
• 45:13
  That's what. That's what they're by being
• 45:14
  scared of it, it makes it stronger.
• 45:16
  I think, once again, we're talking about energy here, so I
• 45:18
  think that has a lot to do with giving your energy to whatever's
• 45:22
  happening. Yeah.
• 45:24
  That's scary. Yeah, it's crazy.
• 45:26
  Oh. It's a lighter die.
• 45:29
  No, it didn't. Sorry.
• 45:31
  The critical mistake? Seeking a medium through the
• 45:35
  medium, the demonic spirit crafted A deceitful persona, a
• 45:38
  harmless lost young girl named Annabelle Higgins.
• 45:41
  It preyed on the women's empathy and emotional vulnerability.
• 45:46
  During the seance, Donna granted the spirit permission to remain
• 45:48
  in the apartment and to inhabit the doll.
• 45:51
  This act of consent, although it was well-intentioned, was
• 45:54
  significant. In demonology, permission gives
• 45:57
  an entity greater access and authority within a space or over
• 46:01
  individuals. So she's over here thinking, oh,
• 46:04
  this little girl's living here? Yeah, girl, pull up chair, sit
• 46:08
  on the couch. But instead it's a demon.
• 46:11
  Maybe. Maybe in this case, it's.
• 46:14
  It sounds like it. Stage 2 Oppression.
• 46:19
  Oppression. Yeah.
• 46:20
  With permission secured, the spirit escalated its activities.
• 46:24
  Oppression involves direct psychological and emotional
• 46:26
  attacks on the individuals involved.
• 46:28
  Fear was heightened through through the increasingly
• 46:31
  disturbing behavior of the doll, such as unexplained movements,
• 46:35
  the appearance of handwritten messages and the manifestation
• 46:38
  of blood like substance on the dolls hands and chest, symbols
• 46:41
  often associated with spiritual corruption.
• 46:44
  The most violent sign of oppression came with with Lou,
• 46:47
  who was physically attacked and left with symbol claw marks,
• 46:50
  interpreted by some as the mark of the beast.
• 46:53
  All like the three claws. Maybe, Yeah, yeah.
• 46:57
  Stage 3 possession, you know. That's it.
• 47:00
  There's three stages. That's that's what demonology.
• 47:04
  Does no, that's not enough stages.
• 47:06
  That's not enough time for me to figure out like like.
• 47:09
  Yeah, like from the first month when they started noticing to
• 47:11
  the, you know, the, the, the next month.
• 47:14
  Yeah. Had the events continued
• 47:15
  unchecked for just a few more weeks, the spirit likely would
• 47:20
  have progressed to the third and most dangerous phase, full
• 47:23
  possession. At this stage, the entity seeks
• 47:25
  to dominate a human host, leading to severe psychological,
• 47:28
  spiritual, and even physical consequences.
• 47:31
  In extreme cases, this can result in permanent harm or
• 47:34
  death. The progression was clearly
• 47:36
  underway and intervention became urgent.
• 47:39
  So I, I believe this was in Connecticut.
• 47:42
  So who else is in Connecticut? The Warrens.
• 47:45
  So the Warrens were then involved.
• 47:47
  They heard about it, they wanted to, they reached out and they
• 47:49
  were allowed to, you know, get involved.
• 47:52
  Following the investigation, renowned paranormal
• 47:54
  investigators Ed and Lorraine Warren concluded that the
• 47:57
  entity's activity aligned with a classic demonic infestation.
• 48:01
  To stop the escalation, Father Cook, Catholic, I believe
• 48:05
  priest, was brought in to perform a religious rite of
• 48:09
  cleansing. Rather than a traditional
• 48:11
  exorcism which directly commands a spirit to leave.
• 48:14
  He conducted an Episcopal blessing of the home.
• 48:19
  I might have butchered that. A lengthy 7 page ritual focused
• 48:22
  not on expelling evil, but on inviting divine presence and
• 48:25
  filling the space with God's light.
• 48:28
  As Ed explained, the goal was to overwhelm the negative energy
• 48:30
  with positive spiritual force. As a final precaution, and at
• 48:34
  Donna's request, the Warrens removed the doll from the
• 48:36
  apartment. They took it into their care to
• 48:39
  prevent any occurrence of the phenomena, recognizing that the
• 48:43
  DAW had become a vessel through which the Spirit could operate.
• 48:46
  I didn't write this down, but I did read somewhere that on the
• 48:49
  drive from the apartment to the Warrens to hope for safekeeping
• 48:54
  that they experienced like some dangerous activity in the car.
• 48:59
  Jerry, you're saying this and there's sirens going off
• 49:02
  outside. There's more, don't worry.
• 49:04
  And they apparently had to use holy water to like Oh my God.
• 49:11
  But once again, this is odd. Just Ed and Lorraine Warren who
• 49:15
  have a lot of sceptics. About their work I I've.
• 49:17
  Heard, but you know, that's what they said and hey, I'm not
• 49:20
  questioning it. Any questions so far?
• 49:24
  Yes, So it's not like the movie where it went from like house to
• 49:26
  house. They just said, oh, this lady's
• 49:29
  drama haunted enough were taken possession of this.
• 49:34
  But there was. And there was so much on.
• 49:36
  Sorry to cut you off. And there was so much on, like
• 49:38
  how involved the Warrens were with the film.
• 49:41
  Not much. I don't think they were even.
• 49:42
  They had. No, yeah, They were just like,
• 49:45
  do it. Like there's a quote saying
• 49:46
  like, do whatever you guys want or use it however you want.
• 49:49
  Because I don't think they wanted to be part of it, and if
• 49:52
  they did, it didn't seem like it because yeah, they never.
• 49:56
  Dang. So once again it was dramatized
• 49:58
  for. Dramatic purposes.
• 49:59
  True, true. It's a very jump scary movie.
• 50:00
  Yeah, and it's part of The Conjuring series, so.
• 50:04
  I didn't manage to light the candle by the way.
• 50:08
  OK so this is other things that were unofficial or official off
• 50:13
  the book things that happened. Ed and Lorraine Warren
• 50:16
  determined that the doll was inhabited by the human spirit
• 50:19
  and relocated to their occult museum in Monroe, CT, where it's
• 50:23
  it was displaced in a displayed sorry in a glass case with a
• 50:27
  sign that read positively do not open.
• 50:30
  It's there is, you know, stories about a visitor who ignored the
• 50:34
  warning, taunted the DAW, and later died in a motorcycle
• 50:37
  accident. The Warrens claim that it was
• 50:40
  probably linked to that, but there is no name or official
• 50:43
  report that says there was a man that died.
• 50:46
  Yeah, for that. That was coming from the museum.
• 50:49
  So once again, there's just stories that may or may not be
• 50:52
  true. So where is she now?
• 50:56
  From what I read, she is still at or the the DAW is still in
• 51:00
  the Occult Museum. The museum itself has been
• 51:03
  closed to to closed due to zoning issues, but the DAW is
• 51:07
  still under care of the Warrens. Their team.
• 51:10
  Sorry, the Warrens team yeah, it's still in the locked case.
• 51:14
  Visitors are still warm to keep their distance.
• 51:17
  So the New England psychology the the NESPR lead investigator
• 51:24
  Dan Rivera posted a TikTok video after the craze of the Annabelle
• 51:29
  Daws missing Yeah yes, the dog will be going on tour.
• 51:33
  I don't know if she has already. No, I think she has.
• 51:35
  I think she's on tour right now. It is the Devils on the Run
• 51:39
  tour. It is supposed to be from
• 51:43
  Gettysburg, PA starting in July and going to the 2025 Rock
• 51:47
  Island Roadhouse Esoteric Expo in Rock Island, IL on October
• 51:52
  4th. If you want more details, check
• 51:55
  out Warrens convention.com give. Me a free promo.
• 51:59
  Yeah, so the Tiktok is showing the Annabelle the the Tiktok
• 52:03
  posted by Dan Rivera, who is part of the Any SP Rs team is
• 52:09
  has a video posted on Tiktok where he is at the Warrens
• 52:12
  Museum saying that he's confirming that yes, there is a
• 52:16
  you know, there is a planned tour this year, but Annabelle's
• 52:19
  in the background. She's still there.
• 52:21
  She's not missing. So I I did research Dan Rivera
• 52:28
  is part of the NESPR and the son-in-law, which I have his
• 52:34
  name somewhere here is the director of you know that
• 52:38
  organization. From what I read today, the doll
• 52:42
  is in the museum. She is not lost in Chicago.
• 52:48
  That is all I got. I did not deep dive the current,
• 52:50
  the current whereabouts of where it's been where it's going, but
• 52:53
  there is scheduled dates before when I read it.
• 52:55
  She is the Doll is in Connecticut.
• 53:02
  Can I tell you something real eerie?
• 53:04
  What's up? So last week episode, last
• 53:07
  week's episode, me and Luis had a little talk about like stuff
• 53:11
  we've seen on TikTok, supernatural stuff, OK, One of
• 53:15
  which was the fire of that plantation.
• 53:19
  Gotcha. Guess where that plantation is
• 53:22
  at? Louisiana, Louisiana, Louisiana.
• 53:26
  Guess where Annabelle was when that fire started?
• 53:32
  Was it Louisiana? It was Louisiana.
• 53:35
  Do you see the connection here, Brian?
• 53:37
  This was not random. This was planned.
• 53:40
  This was intervention, divine intervention, call it.
• 53:43
  Call it that if you may. We were meant to talk about this
• 53:47
  blew out the. Candle blew out the candle.
• 53:48
  I got scared off my fire alarm. I did not intend to do the
• 53:53
  Annabelle story today. I thought about it yesterday and
• 53:57
  I was like, oh, so do you like once again I'll do a Cryptid.
• 54:00
  But everything just kept pointing me at this doll.
• 54:02
  And I hate dolls. I find them super creepy but bam
• 54:07
  linked that's. Scary Jerry What?
• 54:10
  Were that rhymes? Jerry, that's so scary.
• 54:12
  I'm feeling wary. I wish it was Christmas.
• 54:16
  I'd rather feel merry. Would Red Boy become a fairy?
• 54:19
  Yeah, while the casket girls were sent off to get married,
• 54:26
  we'll be here all week. All week, Not all week, but
• 54:29
  we'll be here next week. Dude, that's crazy.
• 54:32
  What a crazy, like, weird connections because I had seen
• 54:37
  things like people saying that like, oh, Annabelle was
• 54:42
  somewhere and like the fire started.
• 54:43
  I did not know that it was in Louisiana.
• 54:45
  Yeah. Wow, yeah, it's it's it's crazy
• 54:48
  because I was like, man, like there's there was a crazy like
• 54:51
  the the TikTok did blow up about like it's missing, it's missing.
• 54:53
  But I mean these are. These are that has to be PR.
• 54:56
  Yeah, yeah. And these are all like records
• 54:58
  of the team itself coming up. Be like, no guys, stop.
• 55:01
  That could also be PR. But these are from like a day
• 55:03
  ago, eight hours ago. I think one of them was from 8
• 55:05
  hours ago. So yeah, it's wild, It's wild.
• 55:08
  And I welcome no negative energy into.
• 55:11
  My life. We set the candle out.
• 55:13
  Please. We're only here to entertain.
• 55:16
  We're not here to harbor anything.
• 55:18
  If there's anyone around here, any spirits, please go on your
• 55:21
  way. Not.
• 55:23
  Welcome. At least while Jerry's gone.
• 55:25
  Oh, Jerry's here. Please be nice, don't follow him
• 55:29
  home. You are not.
• 55:30
  Gary has a loving wife there. Yes, I have a very happy home.
• 55:33
  Yeah, you see good vibes, only no vampires.
• 55:36
  Oh vampires get the fuck away from my vibes, no.
• 55:38
  Oh my God. Now anytime someone tells you,
• 55:41
  like, can I come in when they're at your door?
• 55:45
  No, you were already meant to come in.
• 55:46
  I'm not going to say yes like you're at my door.
• 55:50
  If you have not seen sinners, go watch it.
• 55:52
  Oh, you haven't seen it? Brian, you're going to love that
• 55:55
  movie, especially after this. You're going to love that movie.
• 55:58
  OK, I, I, I'm going to put it on my watch list.
• 56:01
  Hopefully I can watch it this week, but what a what a fun
• 56:05
  episode. That was really fun.
• 56:07
  Once again, these are things that is super interesting.
• 56:10
  And I've always been like, wow, like I want to know.
• 56:13
  I want to know more, but it's not things that I seek out.
• 56:15
  Yeah. So I had that talk with Matt,
• 56:17
  actually. That you don't have like that
• 56:19
  initiative to like, Yeah, let me go read some articles on this.
• 56:23
  Yeah, or, or just out in, out in the wild.
• 56:25
  Like, oh, true, that's an abandoned house.
• 56:27
  Let me go check it out and scope it out for any activity.
• 56:29
  Like, OK, I don't do that by going to it physically, but what
• 56:32
  I found myself doing a lot is I will see like an abandoned
• 56:36
  building and I will Google it. I'll be like, what is that
• 56:39
  building on? Like the street?
• 56:41
  What was it used for? Why?
• 56:42
  Has it been condemned by the city?
• 56:43
  Yes. Yes, there was 1 specifically
• 56:46
  when I was leaving LA. That big purple building, the
• 56:49
  purple stripes, it's on. If you're headed back towards
• 56:54
  the Inland Empire, it's on the right hand side of I think the
• 56:57
  210 freeway. OK, whatever freeway takes you
• 57:00
  through LA downtown area. The Scientology building.
• 57:04
  I don't know. I've never seen it.
• 57:05
  I've never been past it. But no, that building I guess is
• 57:08
  a DHS like shipping your house but it's huge and it looks old.
• 57:13
  What was it before? It was not a.
• 57:15
  DHS I couldn't find out what it was.
• 57:17
  And then I could build the Sears building too, because that's
• 57:19
  abandoned. Yeah, I think it's like, I don't
• 57:22
  know, last time I saw someone breaking into it, 'cause there
• 57:24
  was like people that break into stuff.
• 57:26
  Yeah, true random things that popped up on my my feed.
• 57:29
  It was like they had a bunch of the the E bikes, the Leafs or
• 57:32
  what are they called. Clean.
• 57:34
  Building. Yeah, there was like a whole
• 57:35
  floor of just like new bikes or scooters.
• 57:38
  I forgot what they were. In the Sears building.
• 57:41
  That's. I'm sure they use it to store
• 57:43
  things. It's just an empty.
• 57:44
  Building. Yeah, they all have owners.
• 57:45
  None of those buildings are not owned by anyone, no.
• 57:49
  Don't look around, I used to. Swear I saw a shadow I'm.
• 57:53
  Gonna turn on your light? Yeah, you can.
• 57:54
  Turn that. Let's go.
• 57:55
  Turn on the fan. Don't do it.
• 57:56
  Oh, OK. No, I think it was it was.
• 58:00
  I noticed the the band of my glasses.
• 58:02
  That's what it was. Well, hopefully you guys learned
• 58:06
  something. I did.
• 58:07
  I did not know that there was only three steps of demonic.
• 58:09
  Possession, yeah. And and I didn't, I didn't dive
• 58:12
  deep into demonology and stuff, you know, I don't need to be
• 58:14
  knowing that stuff. But from what I, what I did
• 58:16
  read, that's what popped up. I summarized it really quick.
• 58:19
  Yes, I read a lot of all the shit that I fucking read out
• 58:23
  loud. You know what the next step is
• 58:25
  for this, like this, like, rabbit hole, because it's kind
• 58:30
  of linked to both things. The church.
• 58:35
  The church? Yeah.
• 58:36
  Like the Vatican, like they sent the freaking Pope to bless.
• 58:40
  Yeah. The house.
• 58:41
  Yeah. I mean.
• 58:43
  All those things on on demonology like they have to be
• 58:46
  like known from like some sort of.
• 58:47
  Church. There was this crazy quote and
• 58:50
  I, I forgot to write it down, but it was about that.
• 58:52
  It was like, OK, keep talking. I'm gonna try to find it because
• 58:55
  it's really good. Yeah, like, there's, there,
• 58:59
  there isn't. There's like a whole library,
• 59:03
  like locked up at the Vatican that I've heard of.
• 59:06
  They keep a bunch of things hidden down there, especially
• 59:09
  things that are known to be like super possessed.
• 59:11
  I saw a different TikTok about there being this big, like Onyx.
• 59:19
  No, a big Obsidian mirror said to show like spirits, very like
• 59:25
  Harry Potter. Yeah, the, the that other
• 59:28
  mirror. But I guess that if it were to
• 59:30
  ever meet its twin, because there's another one out in the
• 59:33
  world that the church does not have, it would cause like
• 59:36
  catastrophic events. Fuck that.
• 59:37
  That I guess one person went to go look at it on their own and
• 59:42
  it literally sent them insane. Wow.
• 59:45
  So there's some stuff hidden by the church.
• 59:48
  I would like to know what it is there's.
• 59:50
  Everywhere I found it, I think it's this one.
• 59:52
  So everyone in the audience, this is Sparrow, the son-in-law,
• 59:56
  that Lorraine's son-in-law. Everyone in the audience who
• 59:59
  believes in God must also believe there's a devil.
• 1:00:01
  Ghosts. Devil's demons are real.
• 1:00:04
  He said while most people are focused on the bad stuff
• 1:00:06
  regarding ghosts, there are beautiful stories as well, such
• 1:00:09
  as a soldier who appeared to visit a loved 1.
• 1:00:12
  Sparrow said it's a ghost if a stranger appears and an
• 1:00:15
  apparition if you recognize a person.
• 1:00:18
  The key is don't open any doors. Talking about doors that mirror
• 1:00:22
  and stuff. That's wild.
• 1:00:24
  Once again, crazy topic. I would love to know more.
• 1:00:29
  Won't find me out there looking for stuff.
• 1:00:31
  Yeah, also, I, I mean, I don't want to tease you guys with a
• 1:00:34
  good time, but a Queen Mary episode might come a little
• 1:00:39
  sooner than we think. Is it confirmed?
• 1:00:41
  I don't know yet. Partially confirmed.
• 1:00:46
  Things might have been. Queen Mary Long Beach crazy
• 1:00:51
  history about the Queen Mary. That would be fun to kind of
• 1:00:54
  talk about. Oh, do you think we should do
• 1:00:56
  our first two-part episode that? 'D be a great one.
• 1:00:59
  We both like research different lore and different hotness spots
• 1:01:02
  of the Queen Mary. And then I don't know, the
• 1:01:04
  following episode is I have a school's funny.
• 1:01:08
  I have a vague recollection, recollection of the tour that I
• 1:01:10
  went to, the primary walk tour we went to, but it's it's a lot
• 1:01:13
  of information. So I think we could definitely
• 1:01:15
  break it up between us 2. Oh, I'm down.
• 1:01:17
  Cool. OK, well thank you everyone for
• 1:01:19
  listening. This has been your daily BJ.
• 1:01:21

• 1:01:36
  time with this. What if you hear like later in
• 1:01:38

• 1:01:44
  Blink, blink. I didn't like that, really.
• 1:01:47
  Steve. That's the name the.
• 1:01:48
  Scariest thing I've ever heard. Who decided Annabelle was the
• 1:01:51
  scary name? Technically it was Annabelle
• 1:01:54
  Higgins. OK, good as chick.
• 1:01:56
  Higgins, Annie, are you OK? Eddie, are you OK?
• 1:02:00

  This is a last minute edition. OK everyone, we are going live
• 1:02:42
  from our cell phones. I was on my way home and I have
• 1:02:47
  my music shuffling and this song came out.
• 1:02:49
  Brian, can you repeat the name of the song?
• 1:02:51
  The song is called Broken Tomorrow by Who by Casket
• 1:02:58
  cassette. Listen to it, that's my
• 1:03:01
  recommendation. Nothing is as it is as it as it
• 1:03:05
  seems. This was Destiny.
• 1:03:07
  Crazy. Mind blown.
• 1:03:09
  That is a crazy coincidence. I forgot to give you guys a
• 1:03:13
  recommendation, but this is all you need to listen to Broken
• 1:03:16
  Tomorrow by Casket cassette. As soon as I saw it come up on
• 1:03:19
  the dashboard, I was like, no fucking way.
• 1:03:22
  And I said I called Brian and he didn't answer.
• 1:03:24
  Sorry it listened, but. His, his, his house.
• 1:03:28
  And we're not recording. I'm nothing.
• 1:03:30
  No, I had to make sure that no, the audience need the pot, needs
• 1:03:33
  the podcast. Like I'm editing this and it's
• 1:03:35
  going to get posted right now. By this point, they've listened
• 1:03:38
