• 1:04
  Speaker 1: let's get into the story. By early nineteen ninety nine,
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: Christopher Case was living his best life. He was thirty
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: five years old. He had moved out to Seattle to
• 1:21
  Speaker 1: pursue a career in music, and he had landed a
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: job at a music company in Seattle, and he had
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: risen to the rank of executive at that company. He
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: was incredibly fit. You know, he was known for being
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: at the gym seven days a week. You know, he
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: took vitamins, He took his health very seriously. He had
• 1:36
  Speaker 1: loads of friends. People really liked him. He was very
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: close to his family. And you know, despite all that,
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: despite his popularity and success, he had been single for years.
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: And even though he was not actively seeking a companion,
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: his friends and family were continuously trying to set him
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: up on dates. But Chris would prefer to not go
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: on a date and actually stay home by himself and
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: listen to music. Because Chris had an obsession with a
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: very specific type of music. He loved music from ancient times,
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: specifically from Egypt, and so he was stay home instead
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: of go out on dates and you know, crush ancient
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: Egyptian music.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: That was like his idea of a great night.
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: On April eleventh of nineteen ninety nine, Chris was on
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: a business trip because part of his job required a
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: ton of travel, and he was on a trip with
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: a couple of his co workers who were also friends
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: of his. They go out to San Francisco and on
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: the eleventh they decide to go out for dinner that night,
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: and one of his co workers decides to bring along
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: a friend who was someone that lived in the area.
• 2:42
  Speaker 1: So they get to dinner and one of them has
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: their friend who's an older woman, very attractive, very kind
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: of intense looking woman. She was about twenty years older
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: than Chris. That was his guest, and she sits down
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and the four of them are just kind of having
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: a nice conversation, and at some point, the older woman
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: really takes an in in Chris, and Chris takes an
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: interest in her because it would turn out that they
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: had a lot in common. And then she actually admitted
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to him that she was really into music from ancient
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: times and actually has a specific interest in music from
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: ancient Egypt. And so to Chris, he's like, how can
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: this be? And he's like, this is my passion. I
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: love that type of music, And they really hit it off. Now,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: Chris was not looking for any sort of romantic involvement
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: with this woman. He was just so excited to talk
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: about something he loved. And so all night Chris and
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: this older woman are chatting it up and they're super
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: into each other.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: He was looking at her purely from a platonic sense,
• 3:41
  Speaker 2: but it was becoming.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Clear by the end of the night, at least Chris
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: was realizing this, that she was looking at him with
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: a romantic angle. She was interested in Chris, and in fact,
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: right as he's kind of realizing this, she asked him
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: if he wants to leave with her and go back
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: to her place, and he politely declines because he's not interested.
• 3:59
  Speaker 2: He loved chatting with her about music and other things
• 4:03
  Speaker 2: they had in common, but he wasn't interested in her romantically.
• 4:08
  Speaker 1: And she became a little bit more aggressive and said, no,
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: come on, come on, let's get out of here. I
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: got a place right down the road. We can go
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: listen to music and hang out in my place. And
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: he felt really uncomfortable, and he kept saying no, but
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: she wouldn't let it go. And so finally, as she's
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: literally trying to get him to say yes, he says, Hey,
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: you know what, I've had a long night.
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: I'm going to go, and so he stands up to leave.
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: Then the woman goes.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: From being very flirtatious and friendly to very angry at Chris,
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: and she looks at him and kind of abruptly says
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: to him I'm.
• 4:37
  Speaker 2: Actually a witch and I'm going to put a curse
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: on you. You're going to be dead within a week, okay,
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: And he just leaves.
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: So the next morning, on April twelfth, Chris gets up
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: and he heads to the airport and he flies back
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: to Seattle. When he lands in Seattle, he calls his
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: friend Sammy, who was one of his very close friends
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: back when he lived on the East Coast.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: He just wanted to share this weird.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: Experience with a close friend, and so they're kind of
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: laughing about the whole thing. Neither of them are taking
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: the curse seriously at all. It was like, you really
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: dodged a bullet. It's could you to not go home
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: with her? So, in good spirits, Chris hangs up the
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: phone with Sammy, and for the next twenty four hours,
• 5:18
  Speaker 1: Chris would fall right back into his regular daily life
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: in Seattle. Nothing out of the ordinary happened, but all
• 5:25
  Speaker 1: that would change starting the night of April thirteenth, which
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: would have been forty eight hours after his encounter with
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: this woman in San Francisco. So Chris lives alone, he
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: doesn't have pets, and he gets into bed that night
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: and he's laying there and before he falls asleep, he
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: hears whispering coming from outside of his bedroom, in the
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: kitchen area, kind of near the front door. And he's
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: thinking to himself, like, I didn't just hear whispering, Like what,
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: no one's in here? What's going on?
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: And he's hearing the whispering and then it kind of stops,
• 5:56
  Speaker 2: and before he gets up to investigate, he's like, Okay,
• 5:58
  Speaker 2: I probably was just hearing that wasn't real.
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: He's just kind of laying there, trying to go to sleep,
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: and then he hears it again, except now it's not
• 6:06
  Speaker 1: coming from the kitchen area. It's coming from a separate
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: area in his apartment, outside of the room he's in,
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: And so now he's wondering, like is someone did someone
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: sneak into my house? Like is there a burglar in
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: my house right now? And so he quietly gets out
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: of his bed and he walks over his door. He
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: opens it up, and he can still hear the whispering,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: and it's coming from like his laundry room a little
• 6:27
  Speaker 1: ways away.
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: But as soon as he opens the door and he
• 6:30
  Speaker 2: pokes his head out, the whispering stops.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: And he's just standing there like looking around, like hoping
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: that there isn't anything in his apartment. And then out
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: of the corner of his eye, near the front door,
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: he sees something dash across his periphery, like a shadowy
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: figure basically darts across the room, and so he looks
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: over and he's immediately afraid that it really is a
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: burglar in his room. And as he's looking, he's turning
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: the light on next to him. He's looking around, and
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: he starts turning the whispering again, and now it's coming from.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: Another section of his house.
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: So he just starts turning on all the lights and
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: looking around to try to like make sure no one's
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: in his apartment. He's not even thinking about the whispering.
• 7:06
  Speaker 1: He's just looking for the shadowy figure that he saw
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: run past him.
• 7:10
  Speaker 2: And so he's looking all over his apartment. All the
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: lights are on.
• 7:12
  Speaker 1: It's a small apartment, and as soon as he feels
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: comfortable that the door's locked. Still, everything's locked and there's
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: nobody here. That's when he realizes that that whispering is
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: still happening, and so he turns back around, and now
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: the whispering's coming from his bedroom where he was, and
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: so he walks over his bedroom and looks inside, and
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: he just he can't pinpoint the whispering, like, he keeps
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: hearing it and walking to wherever it's coming from, and
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: as soon as he gets near it, the whispering stops.
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: And he's thinking to himself, like, am I dreaming? Is this
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: a dream? Am I losing my mind? Did somebody slip
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: me something like last night?
• 7:47
  Speaker 2: Like? Is what's wrong with me?
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: So he has this horrible night where he's up all
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: night chasing down whispers in his apartment that keep vanishing,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: and then seeing shadowy figures running around and lurking in corners,
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: but he can't ever see them when he looks at them.
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: And so the next morning, on April fourteenth, when the
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: sun comes up, he hasn't slept. The first phone call
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: he makes is to Sammy, his friend, and he's totally panicked.
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: And we know about this phone call because Sammy would
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: tell police about all her interactions with Chris over the
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: course of this week.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: She would say that he was totally panicked.
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: And she even thought, as she's taking this phone call
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: that it's just so weird, you know, that Chris is
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: scared of noises in his apartment and like figures moving
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: around in his apartment, because it's so unlike Chris. He's
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: i mean, definitely a skeptic. He's just like a he's
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: a no bs kind of guy. So the idea that
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: he would suddenly be terrified of something paranormal running around
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: his apartment just seems so unlike him. But as she's
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: listening to him, he was so scared about what was
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: in his apartment. He knew it wasn't a person because
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: he looked everywhere there was no people. And that's the
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: only reason he didn't call the police is because he
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: didn't want to tell the police that some shadow figure
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: that's spring in my apartment is harassing me.
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: Like, what are the police gonna do?
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: So Sammy hangs up the phone with Chris after trying
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: to reassure him and just hopes that whatever that was
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: doesn't happen again. But unfortunately for Chris. The night of
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: the fourteenth. Now he's going to bed again and he
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: starts hearing the whispers and immediately he's out there looking
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: lights on. He's looking for these whispers. They keep disappearing.
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: He can't find the source. He's getting frustrated, he's scared.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: He keeps seeing that thing dart around his apartment. Except
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: this night, he also noticed that he would look and
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: he could get close enough to where he could break
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: out the silhouette of what looked like a person, you know,
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: like lingering in the corner of his apartment. But he'd
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: go closer to it and it would disappear. It was
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: like the manifestations of what he was seeing, the whispers
• 9:43
  Speaker 1: and this figure running around his apartment were becoming more vivid.
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: But he's also thinking, like, I didn't sleep the night before.
• 9:51
  Speaker 1: This could be my imagination. I don't know if this
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: is happening. But he's spiraling and he knows it. So
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the next day, on the fifteenth, he doesn't call Sammy,
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: but he calls a couple of a other friends that
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: are anonymous, and they would all tell police that they
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: got a similar story that Sammy had gotten that first
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: night after the fourteenth, no matter what was happening, Chris
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: believed it was happening, and Chris was terrified. But this
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: wasn't even the worst of it yet. So that night
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: on the fifteenth, Chris gets in bed and now he's
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: barely slept for two consecutive nights, and he's determined to
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: just go to sleep. That he's trying to tell himself
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: that everything that you've experienced the past couple nights is
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: probably brought on by stress, it's brought on by now
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: certainly a lack of sleep. So he's telling himself, like,
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: just just go to sleep, Just get in bed and
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: go to sleep. So he gets in bed and he's
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: laying there and he does fall asleep, but he wakes
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: up in the middle of the night and he can't
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: move his body.
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: He's paralyzed.
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: He can't move, and he's totally awake, and he starts
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: hearing whispering. And now his level of fear is so
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: high because now he's immobile. But the past two nights,
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: he's heard that whisper bring in his apartment and he's
• 11:01
  Speaker 1: seen that figure moving around his apartment. And so he's
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: laying there in darkness because he went to bed in darkness,
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: and he starts hearing whispering outside his room and then
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: it stops, and then he starts hearing whispering inside of.
• 11:13
  Speaker 2: His closet, and then it stops.
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: And then he hears whispering right underneath his bed, and
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: he can't move, and he's just laying there, praying that
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: nothing horrible is gonna happen to him, that this is
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: just a dream. And then out from underneath his bed,
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: right next to him, he can only turn his eyes.
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: This black figure, this shadowy black figure, emerges right next
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: to his bed, and it's looking.
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: Down at him.
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: He can't make out any facial expressions, but he can
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: clearly define a figure is hovering over him, and it
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: reaches down and puts its hands around his neck and
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: begins to throttle him, and Chris.
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: Is like gagging.
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: He can't breathe, but he can't move, and at some
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: point the thing begins to lift him off of his
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: bed by his neck and then throws him back down,
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: and then.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: The figure vanishes. Chris still couldn't move.
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: He's choking to breathe, but he can't move, and he's
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: just waiting for this thing to come back. And he
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: knows that more than likely, whatever this is is probably
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: going to kill him this night. So he's laying there
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: just thinking, oh my god, I'm about to die. I'm
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: about to die. But the thing doesn't come back, and
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: Chris can't move, and at some point Chris probably at
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: a just pure, you know, adrenaline crash or something, he
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: falls asleep. And so when Chris wakes up and he
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: can move again, he notices there's blood inside of his bed,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: on his sheets, and then he looks at his hands
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: and at the tips of all ten fingers are these incisions,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: like someone had intentionally cut open the top of every finger,
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: something he certainly didn't do. And his bed is covered
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: in blood from these ten cuts on his hands. And
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: then he feels his neck and it feels tender, and
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: it turns out he had marks on his neck. It
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: was all bruised up from this thing choking him out,
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: and it brought him back to like that really happened.
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: He's now like actually in fear for his life.
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: Chris immediately calls Sammy and tells Sammy everything that happened,
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: and Sammy can't believe any of it. She felt helpless
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: because she's on the other side of the country. She
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: can't help him, and Chris is just petrified, and he's
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: like he can barely speak, you know, He's like unable
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: to articulate what's happening.
• 13:14
  Speaker 2: You know.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: He's describing these cuts on his hand and his neck,
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: but there's no one in his apartment, and Samy's trying
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: to get him to call the police, but Chris is like,
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: I can't call the police. What am I gonna tell
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: him that a shadowy figure is coming in my apartment
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: and choking me. They're gonna think I'm crazy. Chris decides
• 13:32
  Speaker 1: he's gonna approach this head on.
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Maybe that woman.
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: In San Francisco did put some curse on me. I
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: need to at least research it. And so there was
• 13:41
  Speaker 1: a religious bookstore right near his house that he figured
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: might have some things on demonic possession and demons the occult,
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: and he goes in there and he kind of awkwardly
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: approaches the store owner and is like, I'm looking for,
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: you know, books about demons and witchcraft and how to
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: protect yourself against that, and the guy points him towards
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: the section of the store, and so Chris goes over there.
• 14:07
  Speaker 2: He scoops up a whole bunch of books. He also
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: buys like a whole bundle of crucifixes, so like at
• 14:13
  Speaker 2: least ten. So he's got all these crucifixes, he's got
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: all these books about.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: Demonic possession and witchcraft. He buys all of that and
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: he leaves and he goes back to his apartment. When
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: he gets back after doing some research, he ends up
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: putting these crucifixes all over his apartment, like every room,
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: and he takes salt and he draws a line all
• 14:31
  Speaker 1: through his apartment against the baseboard of every wall in
• 14:35
  Speaker 1: the house, and at every corner of the house. He'd
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: pile up little piles of salt. He was going to
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: do all the things that people say to do if
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: you're dealing with demons or ghosts or anything through witchcraft.
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: He was kind of grasping at straws a little bit.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: So he went out and did everything he thought he
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: could possibly do to protect himself. That night, which was
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: April sixteenth, we don't know what happened to Chris, but
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: something scared him so badly that in the middle of
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: the night, in a full panic, he runs out of
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: his apartment and he checks into a hotel and does
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: not stay at his apartment.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: The next morning, April seventeenth, when Sammy called Chris to
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: check on him. Now, remember this is nineteen ninety nine.
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: There was just landline phones. So she calls his landline
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: at his apartment to check on him. There's no answer
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: because he's not there. He's at the hotel. And Sammy,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: who's been speaking.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: To Chris and other friends that have been speaking to
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Chris and everyone's concerned about his mental health and what's
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: going on with him.
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: When she doesn't get Chris to pick up.
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: His phone, she calls the police and she says, Hey,
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: I'm concerned about my friend.
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: Can you do a welfare check on this guy?
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: And they go over to his apartment and it's locked,
• 15:40
  Speaker 1: and they kind of look in the windows and everything
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: just seems kind of quiet, and so they leave and
• 15:44
  Speaker 1: they tell Sammy like, hey, look, it's locked. We can't
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: really do anything, you know, let us know if you
• 15:49
  Speaker 1: don't hear from him in the next couple of days.
• 15:51
  Speaker 2: And so that was it, and so Sammy's like.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: Super concerned, and so she goes to work on the seventeenth,
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: and then when she gets back, she has a voicemail
• 15:59
  Speaker 1: from and Chris, who had called her at some point
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: during the day while she was out, and on the voicemail,
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: Chris tells her in a voice that was different than
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: the past few days. The past few days he was scared,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: He was really scared. This time he is defeated, you know.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: He was like resigned to whatever was going on. And
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: he says to Sammy on the voicemail, he's under attack
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and that tonight they're gonna kill me and.
• 16:25
  Speaker 2: There's nothing I can do.
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: As soon as she's done listening to the message, Sammy
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: calls Chris, but she can't get in touch with him.
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: She knows she just talked to the police who were
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: they are at his apartment that day. They're probably just
• 16:36
  Speaker 1: gonna tell her, like, hey, wait until tomorrow. We just
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: told you, you know, earlier, to just give it a
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: couple of days, and so she just decides that she's
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: gonna go to bed and she's gonna try calling him
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: again on April eighteen. On the morning of April eighteenth,
• 16:49
  Speaker 1: Chris didn't show up for work, and word got back
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: to Sammy, who was already gonna reach out to Chris
• 16:55
  Speaker 1: that morning anyways. But now the friends and family are
• 16:58
  Speaker 1: talking about what's going on with Chris, and so got
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: back to her that Chris had missed work, and so
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: she calls Chris. He's not picking up from his landline.
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: And now she calls the police back and she says, hey,
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: you were there yesterday. I know it was locked, but
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: he hasn't shown up for work today. Everybody's concerned about him.
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: Can you please go over and check. And so the
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: police go back over to Chris's apartment and this time
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: the front door is unlocked, and they go inside and
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: they're met with this very strange scene. You know, you
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: have all these crucifixes that are on the wall, you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: have the salt that lines every room in the house.
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: There are all these candles that have burned down to
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: the wick. There are little scraps of paper all over
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: the apartment that were handwritten little messages that Chris was
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: leaving all over the house warding off spirits and demons.
• 17:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, it just looked like out of a Hollywood
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: set for some demonic movie or something. And they search
• 17:53
  Speaker 1: the house and there's no sign of Chris. They're yelling
• 17:55
  Speaker 1: for him, there's no sign of him, and they make
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: their way into the bathroom where they discover Chris's body.
• 18:01
  Speaker 1: Chris was in his bathtub, no water in the bathtub,
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: He's fully clothed. There's all these candles all around the
• 18:08
  Speaker 1: outside of this bathtub. There's you know, more crucifixes and
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: weird relics that are in the bathroom with him. And
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: he's on his knees and he's slouched up against the
• 18:19
  Speaker 1: wall with his hands kind of tucked against his chest.
• 18:22
  Speaker 2: He had no external injuries. He was just dead.
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: And so the police take Chris's body, and the coroner
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: comes in and does a report, and it comes out
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: that Chris died of natural causes.
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: He died of a heart attack.
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: And so when friends and family he saw that that
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: was his cause of death, they didn't buy it. They're like,
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: I don't know how to describe what happened to him.
• 18:43
  Speaker 1: But over the past seven days, Chris went from this happy, healthy,
• 18:47
  Speaker 1: successful guy to a complete, raving, paranoid lunatic. And no
• 18:53
  Speaker 1: one knows why. You know, it's I mean, it's certainly
• 18:56
  Speaker 1: possible that it was just a very poorly timed heart attack,
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: you know, extend with someone having a psychotic break or
• 19:03
  Speaker 1: some people say that he really was cursed by that
• 19:06
  Speaker 1: woman in San Francisco, and that.
• 19:09
  Speaker 2: That was the result.
• 19:10
  Speaker 1: I mean, she said, you're going to die within the week,
• 19:12
  Speaker 1: and he literally died within the week. And he described
• 19:16
  Speaker 1: regularly over the phone to his friends and family as
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: this was happening, these horrible experiences at night, with these
• 19:21
  Speaker 1: shadow beings in his room and attacking him. I mean,
• 19:25
  Speaker 1: it's just this crazy story that to this day leaves friends,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: family and investigators baffled.
• 19:31
  Speaker 2: So I'd love to.
• 19:31
