[2:56] Speaker 1: Thank you for having me.
[2:58] Speaker 2: It is our pleasure to have you with us tonight.
[3:00] Speaker 2: And you'll call in from Nebraska.
[3:03] Speaker 1: Just there.
[3:03] Speaker 2: Now Aarmundo, you have some experiences you're going to be
[3:06] Speaker 2: sharing with us. Would you like start at the beginning, please, sir.
[3:10] Speaker 1: Yeah, So most my stories are going to go chronologically ordered,
[3:12] Speaker 1: so we'll start pretty much when I was born. I
[3:15] Speaker 1: was born in nineteen ninety two in Nebraska. Shortly after
[3:19] Speaker 1: I was born, my parents moved to Marshalltown, Iowa. And
[3:24] Speaker 1: this is a very small town in Iowa. So the
[3:27] Speaker 1: way things started there is they moved to a trailer
[3:29] Speaker 1: park in Iowa, and they had quite a bit of
[3:32] Speaker 1: experiences right away. Most of them were to the paranormal
[3:37] Speaker 1: realm of them. So there'd be time for my mom
[3:39] Speaker 1: would be washing dishes and in the next room over
[3:43] Speaker 1: she'd be able to hear voices people. It sounded like
[3:46] Speaker 1: people were gambling, drinking and fighting with each other, and
[3:49] Speaker 1: she'd be like, what the hell is going on and
[3:51] Speaker 1: try to figure out what's going on and stuff to
[3:52] Speaker 1: the next room. There'd be no one in there, so
[3:55] Speaker 1: you know, she'd bring it up to my dad, and
[3:57] Speaker 1: my dad didn't really believe her until he started some
[4:00] Speaker 1: experiences of his own. There'd be times where his worst
[4:03] Speaker 1: fear in life is drowning, and almost every night that
[4:07] Speaker 1: they lived there, he had a dream of drowning. There'd
[4:09] Speaker 1: be times where my mom would be, you know, home
[4:11] Speaker 1: alone with just me and just she'd be feeling like
[4:14] Speaker 1: she'd be an attacked by something like almost to the
[4:16] Speaker 1: extent of being choked or being held down, and the
[4:19] Speaker 1: only way they need these things would stop is when
[4:21] Speaker 1: she would hold me. So I don't know if it's
[4:23] Speaker 1: something to do with like the purity of a baby,
[4:25] Speaker 1: or you know, just maybe I just don't want to
[4:27] Speaker 1: attack her while she's holding that. No, you know, I
[4:29] Speaker 1: don't quite understand what was going on with that part.
[4:32] Speaker 1: But my uncle also lived there as well with my
[4:35] Speaker 1: mom and dad, uh, and he'd have some experiences too
[4:38] Speaker 1: with with the ghost things. But there was a time
[4:40] Speaker 1: where they left, they left me with my uncle. My
[4:44] Speaker 1: uncle and my mom and dad left to go to
[4:46] Speaker 1: the store or something. I can't remember quite what it was,
[4:49] Speaker 1: but they came back and they saw my uncle sitting
[4:51] Speaker 1: there like with a look of shock in his eyes.
[4:53] Speaker 1: He had scratches on his neck and stuff, and he
[4:56] Speaker 1: was telling him that he was attacked by a little
[4:58] Speaker 1: person in Spanish sho'll call it out the wind day
[5:01] Speaker 1: And he's telling them that there was two of them
[5:04] Speaker 1: and he's trying to find them off and they're scratching them,
[5:06] Speaker 1: attacking them, and next thing you know, they just leave,
[5:09] Speaker 1: so pretty much rid. After that, maybe a few months
[5:11] Speaker 1: after that, they decided to come back to Nebraska, so
[5:14] Speaker 1: I did, as you know, being a baby, I don't
[5:16] Speaker 1: remember any of that, but right away I'm kind of
[5:18] Speaker 1: thrown into this world of paranormal and cryptic experiences. So
[5:22] Speaker 1: around the age of three or four, I didn't have
[5:25] Speaker 1: an experience here, but this is kind of what got
[5:27] Speaker 1: me too. The Bigfoot, Ufo world and all that type
[5:29] Speaker 1: of stuff was my mom had a book and it
[5:32] Speaker 1: was more like an encyclopedia. But in that book itself
[5:36] Speaker 1: there I remember seeing the image of Patty, the world
[5:39] Speaker 1: known Bigfoot image from Patterson Gammon film. I remember seeing
[5:43] Speaker 1: an image of Ufo flying across the sky in Arizona
[5:46] Speaker 1: or New Mexico. And I remember the book talking about lockness, monsters,
[5:50] Speaker 1: and dinosaurs still existing in along the Amazon River. So
[5:53] Speaker 1: from the age of three or four up to now,
[5:56] Speaker 1: I've always been kind of interested in all these things,
[5:58] Speaker 1: and it's always that book. The Loan opened up my
[6:01] Speaker 1: view on all this stuff. After that, I didn't really
[6:03] Speaker 1: have anything happening to me until I was around the
[6:06] Speaker 1: age of seven. We lived in this round house in Nebraska,
[6:12] Speaker 1: and uh, there was a lot of ghost experiences there.
[6:15] Speaker 1: I remember my mom doing the dishes, and she'd put
[6:18] Speaker 1: the dishes in the drying wreck and she comes sit down.
[6:20] Speaker 1: We'd all be sitting around watching TV, and like about
[6:23] Speaker 1: five minutes later after her doing that, you just hear
[6:25] Speaker 1: all the dishes flying out of the dish rack one
[6:28] Speaker 1: by one, and it is kind of quite a weird
[6:32] Speaker 1: experience experience in that. And then you know that happened
[6:35] Speaker 1: on more than one occasion, or we'd all be sitting
[6:37] Speaker 1: in the living room watching TV and then next thing
[6:40] Speaker 1: you know, the cerea would just come on on its
[6:42] Speaker 1: own in a full blast. You know, everybody in the
[6:44] Speaker 1: house experience. And there's a time where my mom was
[6:49] Speaker 1: home alone. She sat my brother on the couch and
[6:52] Speaker 1: my brother was just born. She sat them on the
[6:54] Speaker 1: couch or laid them on the couch. I went to
[6:57] Speaker 1: grab a diaper real quick, but within the thirty second
[7:00] Speaker 1: of her going to go to the other room grab
[7:02] Speaker 1: a diaper, and the wife would come back. My brother
[7:04] Speaker 1: laid on the ground, wrapped up in the blanket like
[7:06] Speaker 1: someone just laid them there, So we had quite a
[7:10] Speaker 1: big experience of living there. Another experience that I had
[7:13] Speaker 1: was the way my bedroom was set up. I shared
[7:15] Speaker 1: a room with my sisters, but my the way my
[7:18] Speaker 1: bed was set it was set facing the door, but
[7:20] Speaker 1: there was no door, so it was just a doorway there,
[7:23] Speaker 1: and my sisters were facing the closet, so they just
[7:25] Speaker 1: looked straight in the poset that they were laying in
[7:26] Speaker 1: the bed. And as a kid, I was always a
[7:29] Speaker 1: night out. I was always a thinker, mainly because of
[7:31] Speaker 1: that book that I read when I was like three
[7:33] Speaker 1: or four. I was always thinking about you know, life UFOs,
[7:36] Speaker 1: dinosaurs or lockless monsters, all that type of stuff. So
[7:39] Speaker 1: I just remember laying there every night, and there'd be
[7:42] Speaker 1: a few occasions where I would see a shadow figure
[7:45] Speaker 1: walk past my doorway towards through the living room and
[7:49] Speaker 1: they would never come back again. And that's I'd see
[7:52] Speaker 1: those different occasions. Other than that, i'dn't have any more
[7:55] Speaker 1: experiences there until I was about eight years old. Growing up,
[8:01] Speaker 1: I come from a Mexican culture, so hearing stories about
[8:05] Speaker 1: like witches and like little people and things of that
[8:08] Speaker 1: nature was nothing new. To me as a kid. They
[8:10] Speaker 1: always tell you a story of Orna, which is pretty
[8:13] Speaker 1: much means like the crying lady. But the story in Mexico,
[8:16] Speaker 1: it's just kind of like a story that you tell
[8:18] Speaker 1: kids so they will be scared and go to bed.
[8:21] Speaker 1: But the story is that there's this lady and she
[8:23] Speaker 1: had her kids and she drownded them out the river.
[8:26] Speaker 1: Well then she died, and the story goes that now
[8:31] Speaker 1: that if you you know, you stay up late, you
[8:33] Speaker 1: don't go to bed, you're gonna hear crying and she's
[8:34] Speaker 1: gonna come drag you down to the river. So it's
[8:36] Speaker 1: just more of a story to scary it and tell
[8:38] Speaker 1: you to go to bed. And there is some truth
[8:40] Speaker 1: to it because it's more of like the Lady in White,
[8:42] Speaker 1: which is a story here across the world of like
[8:45] Speaker 1: like a spiritual figure that people do see. I think
[8:47] Speaker 1: there is some truth to that. I don't think the
[8:49] Speaker 1: whole drowning the kid's story is the truth. But so
[8:52] Speaker 1: I'd always hear stories about like you know, the the windows,
[8:54] Speaker 1: witches and stuff like that. And I finally went to
[8:56] Speaker 1: Mexico when I was eight years old. My spirit I
[8:59] Speaker 1: had I was there was more of like a deja
[9:02] Speaker 1: vu premonition type dream thing. I had a dream that
[9:04] Speaker 1: I was walking down the side of the road and
[9:07] Speaker 1: I was wearing a shirt outfit. So I don't know
[9:10] Speaker 1: if it was maybe like a week or like a
[9:11] Speaker 1: couple of days later, but I was walking. I went
[9:14] Speaker 1: to school there during the summer, so I was walking
[9:16] Speaker 1: down to sitting down the road. I was walking on
[9:18] Speaker 1: the right side of the gravel road. I was wearing
[9:20] Speaker 1: an outfit, and all of a sudden, that dream came
[9:21] Speaker 1: in my head and I was wearing the same exact thing.
[9:23] Speaker 1: It was the same exact setting. It was like the
[9:26] Speaker 1: bright sunny day, and I remember all of it and
[9:28] Speaker 1: it just kind of clicked in my head. I was like,
[9:29] Speaker 1: this is like a premonision or a dajah voom moment
[9:31] Speaker 1: I had. So it scared me so bad I had
[9:33] Speaker 1: to walk to the other side of the road. Another
[9:35] Speaker 1: experience that I had to while I was there was
[9:37] Speaker 1: that after school hours, I would meet up with a
[9:39] Speaker 1: bunch of friends and stuff. We'd either go play soccer
[9:42] Speaker 1: or we just go run around town and play hide
[9:44] Speaker 1: and go seek and stuff. And as me and two
[9:45] Speaker 1: girls we went to the school to go play around
[9:48] Speaker 1: on the playground there, and uh, they have a bathroom
[9:51] Speaker 1: outside that you're able to use, but there's like a
[9:53] Speaker 1: partitioner in front of the bathroom which is kind of
[9:55] Speaker 1: like a metal wall, but no one could see into
[9:58] Speaker 1: the bathrooms from the playground. So I actually went to
[10:01] Speaker 1: the boys one and the girls went to the girls one,
[10:04] Speaker 1: and they were out first before I was, and they
[10:06] Speaker 1: were standing in front of the partition on the inside
[10:09] Speaker 1: of the bathroom side and they weren't going out yet,
[10:12] Speaker 1: so you know, I didn't really think much of it.
[10:13] Speaker 1: And I was about to step out to go to
[10:15] Speaker 1: the playground there and they're like, no, wait here, and
[10:17] Speaker 1: I could see the look of fear in her eyes.
[10:18] Speaker 1: I was like, what's going on, you know, like what
[10:20] Speaker 1: you know, why I can't go out there? And she's
[10:22] Speaker 1: like the window is out there to the little people,
[10:24] Speaker 1: and I was like what. At first, I was like what, Like,
[10:26] Speaker 1: you know, I was like I thought, like in my head,
[10:28] Speaker 1: I thought all this stuff is just kind of like
[10:29] Speaker 1: the stories or just stuff that they just want to
[10:31] Speaker 1: tell you. I was just kid to scare you. And
[10:33] Speaker 1: then like I really looked in her eyes and you
[10:35] Speaker 1: could just like see the fear and started like listening.
[10:38] Speaker 1: You can hear things playing on the playground, something on
[10:41] Speaker 1: the merry go round, something on the like the swing swing,
[10:43] Speaker 1: and you can hear like the middle the metal creaking
[10:45] Speaker 1: on the swing chains. So that right there, and then
[10:47] Speaker 1: that's kind of like confirmed, like this stuff is real
[10:50] Speaker 1: to me. Another incident I was in Mexicos. There was
[10:53] Speaker 1: like a community to get together and we all came
[10:56] Speaker 1: this this place is more like a village. There was
[10:57] Speaker 1: like a few hundred people living in this village, and
[11:00] Speaker 1: uh so there's a large group of us came together
[11:02] Speaker 1: do like a like a neighborhood cookout almost, And so
[11:06] Speaker 1: every this always happened in Mexican culture to a lot
[11:09] Speaker 1: is that people come together and start telling their war stories.
[11:12] Speaker 1: I guess they're like their stories with paranormal activity. And
[11:17] Speaker 1: there's like a known a lot of known witchcraft in
[11:19] Speaker 1: Mexico too. And so my grandma's neighbor started ragging on
[11:25] Speaker 1: this witch that you know, everyone knew there was a
[11:27] Speaker 1: witch in the area, but nobody really talked about it
[11:30] Speaker 1: for fear of apercussion. And this lady was kind of
[11:32] Speaker 1: being reckless with what she's saying. She's talking a lot
[11:36] Speaker 1: of negative stuff about the witch, and just even as
[11:38] Speaker 1: a kid, I had a feeling of something's going to happen,
[11:40] Speaker 1: like I feel like this witch might be sitting right
[11:42] Speaker 1: here with us, because a witch doesn't look like what
[11:45] Speaker 1: you think on TV. You know, they look like an
[11:46] Speaker 1: everyday person sometimes. So he was ragging on the witch, talking,
[11:51] Speaker 1: saying some mean things and just kind of upset I
[11:53] Speaker 1: guess more than anything. So we all go back home
[11:56] Speaker 1: and we all go to sleep, and when we wake
[11:58] Speaker 1: up the next day, the neighbor all she had a
[12:00] Speaker 1: bunch of birds in her backyard and cages and stuff,
[12:02] Speaker 1: and they were all dead like, and it did it
[12:04] Speaker 1: looked like they had broken necks or anything like that.
[12:06] Speaker 1: They just looked like they all fell over and died.
[12:09] Speaker 1: So that was all my experience in Mexico. So after that,
[12:13] Speaker 1: I don't really have much experiences until I turned about fifteen.
[12:18] Speaker 1: I have a buddy I used to live by. He
[12:20] Speaker 1: lived about two us is down for me, and he
[12:23] Speaker 1: always told me he had a bunch of, you know,
[12:25] Speaker 1: paranormal experiences at home, and it's something I never believed them.
[12:28] Speaker 1: It was more than that, I never you know, every
[12:31] Speaker 1: time I went over I didn't like since any energy
[12:34] Speaker 1: or I never seen anything happen, never had anything happen
[12:37] Speaker 1: while I was there. And like I said, it's not
[12:38] Speaker 1: like I didn't leave them my own experiences and stuff.
[12:41] Speaker 1: But it got to the point where he was getting
[12:44] Speaker 1: ready to move and we would all come, I've come
[12:47] Speaker 1: over and hang out with them while they were moving
[12:48] Speaker 1: and stuff. And at this day, they weren't really moving anything,
[12:51] Speaker 1: but his house was pretty empty, so we're just stilling
[12:53] Speaker 1: downstairs in his basement. He had one of his dresser
[12:56] Speaker 1: draworgs pulled out. It was kind of standing on end,
[12:59] Speaker 1: and just because you know, things were in random places,
[13:02] Speaker 1: just because it's getting ready to move out of there.
[13:04] Speaker 1: And I sat my glass of water down on it,
[13:07] Speaker 1: and we're just sitting there talking telling for a bit,
[13:10] Speaker 1: and for some reason, we both just happened to look
[13:12] Speaker 1: at my glass of water at the same time and
[13:14] Speaker 1: we see it like tip over. There's nothing like that
[13:16] Speaker 1: bumped in, no vibration or nothing like that. Nothing shook it.
[13:19] Speaker 1: It just tipped over. And I was like, that's kind
[13:22] Speaker 1: of weird. Then literally right after that happened, you just
[13:25] Speaker 1: hear footstus walking back and forth upstairs, just back and forth,
[13:29] Speaker 1: back and forth. We're like, what the heck, what's that?
[13:31] Speaker 1: What's going on? You know. It's like he's like, I'm
[13:33] Speaker 1: telling you O, there's something in there, and I was
[13:34] Speaker 1: like what, I just go upstairs real quick to see
[13:36] Speaker 1: if there's NBLS in there. There wasn't. You. You know,
[13:39] Speaker 1: by the time I got up, they don't hear the
[13:40] Speaker 1: footsteps no more either, And I was like, that's crazy.
[13:44] Speaker 1: And a couple of days later, you know, I started
[13:46] Speaker 1: going over a little more because it kind of picked
[13:48] Speaker 1: my interest to what was going on. And I had
[13:50] Speaker 1: a couple other buddies with me, and you know, they're
[13:53] Speaker 1: kind of non believers, and so I was like, let's
[13:56] Speaker 1: try to make something happen. So we turned off the
[13:58] Speaker 1: lights and there's the lights still. I mean, somebody's trying
[14:00] Speaker 1: through the basement windows, so there's enough light from that
[14:04] Speaker 1: and that we can still see each other. So I
[14:06] Speaker 1: told everybody, hey, put your hands up. We're gonna do
[14:08] Speaker 1: a little test. And uh, well, I'll put our hands up,
[14:11] Speaker 1: I'll ask the spirit or goes to do something, to
[14:14] Speaker 1: throw something, to make some noise, and you know, we'll
[14:16] Speaker 1: see if there's really something in here. So we all
[14:20] Speaker 1: raised our hands. So I was like, if there's anything
[14:22] Speaker 1: in here, can you please show us either make some noise,
[14:24] Speaker 1: knock something down, and do something, you know, And within
[14:27] Speaker 1: like five seconds of me saying that, you see this
[14:29] Speaker 1: toy flight across the room and hit the wall. So
[14:32] Speaker 1: that kind of confirmed something going on. And you know,
[14:34] Speaker 1: when this happened, everybody's hands were up. You know, I
[14:37] Speaker 1: can see everybody's hands. So after that, like we could
[14:40] Speaker 1: you know, maybe we get two thoes by. And this
[14:43] Speaker 1: is around the same time when the Paranormal ACTIPTI movie
[14:46] Speaker 1: came out and that and I actually went to go
[14:48] Speaker 1: see it with a couple of friends, and you know,
[14:50] Speaker 1: I was like, all right, the movie was cool, and
[14:51] Speaker 1: I was like, if you guys really want to experience
[14:53] Speaker 1: some real pernal mytippy, I know somewhere where we go to.
[14:55] Speaker 1: So we went to my buddy's house again. This house
[14:58] Speaker 1: had an upstairs like attic area, but it was more
[15:00] Speaker 1: of a an attic where you didn't have to crash
[15:02] Speaker 1: down until you can stand up. And when you get
[15:04] Speaker 1: up the stairs and to the attic, there's a left
[15:06] Speaker 1: to the left you there's like a little crawl space
[15:08] Speaker 1: you can go into to the right of the storage
[15:10] Speaker 1: room and to the straight ahead there's another biggest biggert
[15:13] Speaker 1: storage area. So we went into the crawl space area.
[15:16] Speaker 1: We all sat in there. I was one of the
[15:18] Speaker 1: last ones to get in and I sat down, and
[15:20] Speaker 1: then like, after us being in there for a couple
[15:22] Speaker 1: of minutes, I felt like some pressure on me, like
[15:24] Speaker 1: something that was like almost sitting on me it but
[15:26] Speaker 1: like and I was like, that's really weird. The next thing,
[15:28] Speaker 1: you know, there's an exilet phone type toy in the
[15:31] Speaker 1: other room and you can just hear it ding in
[15:34] Speaker 1: one by one by one. And after that we all
[15:36] Speaker 1: kind of sprinted out of there. But my body I
[15:38] Speaker 1: did live there. He said there was kind of some
[15:39] Speaker 1: experiences that he had. One I won't get into all
[15:42] Speaker 1: of them, but one major one that he did have
[15:44] Speaker 1: is they did hire like some type of priest or
[15:46] Speaker 1: someone to come over and bust at home. And when
[15:48] Speaker 1: they're walking up that stairs, it's almost it's almost like
[15:51] Speaker 1: two flights of stairs, one bigger one than one smaller one.
[15:54] Speaker 1: But when they got in between the big and small flight,
[15:56] Speaker 1: there's like a little corner of the wall. He decided
[15:58] Speaker 1: to put some folly water on that corner of the wall,
[16:01] Speaker 1: and the drywall kind of just fell apart, just instantly
[16:04] Speaker 1: troubled down. He said, so that, you know, and they
[16:06] Speaker 1: said that they kind of found out some history about
[16:08] Speaker 1: that home, and they said that they kind of found
[16:10] Speaker 1: out there are people living there practicing rituals and sacrificing animals,
[16:15] Speaker 1: and this is like the early nineteen hundreds when they
[16:17] Speaker 1: were doing that. So after that, I have so around
[16:21] Speaker 1: the age of sixteen or seventeen, I have my first
[16:23] Speaker 1: year at Fox Experience. I'll give out a street address
[16:26] Speaker 1: the you know, I mean, I don't mind. I'm from
[16:28] Speaker 1: Grandad in Nebraska, and this has happened on Capital Avenue,
[16:31] Speaker 1: and I'm just giving this thouse. Some people kind of
[16:33] Speaker 1: have a visual what they do want to look at
[16:34] Speaker 1: where the area this happened at. So we're driving around,
[16:38] Speaker 1: like at this time, we come from a small town.
[16:40] Speaker 1: In high school, I wasn't really about to do so
[16:41] Speaker 1: we always kind of drove around with the music all day.
[16:44] Speaker 1: And so we're driving and there was six of us
[16:47] Speaker 1: in a car and at that time, you know, you
[16:49] Speaker 1: I mean as many people as you can in the car.
[16:51] Speaker 1: Sometimes there's four people in the back. My buddy driving
[16:54] Speaker 1: me and the passenger side. We're driving down Capitol Avenue.
[16:58] Speaker 1: We get to a point where to the right I
[17:00] Speaker 1: didn't well come up to a cemetery. On the left
[17:01] Speaker 1: side of me, there's these apartments. I happened to look
[17:04] Speaker 1: out the left driver's side window and I look up
[17:06] Speaker 1: above these apartments and there's a saucer this shape where
[17:10] Speaker 1: I would know as a UFO. It was hovering right
[17:12] Speaker 1: above the apartments. Is I don't know if there was
[17:14] Speaker 1: anything on the craft itself that had a light, or
[17:16] Speaker 1: if it was just amitting a light from just the
[17:19] Speaker 1: energy that I was producing or whatever, but it was
[17:21] Speaker 1: like a purple flight around it, Like what is that?
[17:24] Speaker 1: It's like, that's the UFO. And we all looked over,
[17:26] Speaker 1: and they all looked over and they see it too,
[17:28] Speaker 1: and we're all kind of excited, kind of freaking out
[17:31] Speaker 1: and stuff. And I was like, oh, I'm gonna grab
[17:33] Speaker 1: my phone take a picture. And of course I look
[17:35] Speaker 1: down to grab my phone out of my lap. It's
[17:36] Speaker 1: not there. It's on the ground by chance. And finally,
[17:40] Speaker 1: by the time I reached down grab my phone, look
[17:42] Speaker 1: back up, it's gone. And just like that, even till
[17:47] Speaker 1: this day, like every time I bump into these people
[17:49] Speaker 1: that I rode with. I'm thirty three now and this
[17:51] Speaker 1: is about seventeen years later, and when I bump into them,
[17:56] Speaker 1: this is the first thing we ever talked about. I
[17:57] Speaker 1: was like, hey, you've remember seeing the UFO. After that,
[18:01] Speaker 1: I have this is about when I was seventeen or eighteen,
[18:04] Speaker 1: I have a bunch of Wigi boards. Major Wigi board experience.
[18:08] Speaker 1: I was with a group of friends and we we
[18:11] Speaker 1: always I don't know what have we got a conversation
[18:13] Speaker 1: of it, but we talked about getting a Wigi board
[18:15] Speaker 1: a few times. And this one time we went to
[18:17] Speaker 1: this football game and after that football game, we left
[18:20] Speaker 1: and we're like, you know, hey, maybe we should go
[18:22] Speaker 1: get that Wigi board we always talked about. So we
[18:24] Speaker 1: went to the store, you know, looked around for the
[18:25] Speaker 1: wigy board, and the only Wigi board they had was
[18:27] Speaker 1: like the globe, the dark one. And it's not that
[18:30] Speaker 1: I don't believe in any of this type of stuff,
[18:31] Speaker 1: but like a Wigi board, Like at that time, I
[18:33] Speaker 1: was like, I got that game, you know, it can't
[18:35] Speaker 1: be real or nothing like that, and not you know,
[18:37] Speaker 1: to me, I don't think the Wigi board is what
[18:39] Speaker 1: makes it happen. I think it's your intentions when you're
[18:41] Speaker 1: doing the Ouiji board. So we get the Oigi board.
[18:44] Speaker 1: We go to this place and stuff, and then I'm
[18:46] Speaker 1: like this, this is gonna be corny. You know, it's
[18:48] Speaker 1: gonna be kind of not gonna work. It's a glowing
[18:50] Speaker 1: and dark wigie board. So we all sit down. We
[18:53] Speaker 1: waited until you know, about like eleven o'clock midnight. I
[18:57] Speaker 1: think because there's a few of the people that you know,
[18:59] Speaker 1: it's about maybe eight of us to all stay the
[19:00] Speaker 1: night together for this big sleepover to do this, there
[19:03] Speaker 1: was like maybe three or four people that didn't want
[19:05] Speaker 1: to be part of it. I think it's about three
[19:07] Speaker 1: of them. So they we waited till they fell asleep.
[19:09] Speaker 1: We all sat down. We can lift some candles, turn
[19:11] Speaker 1: off the lights. My buddy's dad even joined us, and
[19:14] Speaker 1: he turned off the last light him, sat down and
[19:16] Speaker 1: he's like, oh, you know what, I'm actually gonna go
[19:18] Speaker 1: grab us some orders of the garage or something like that,
[19:20] Speaker 1: and goes to the garage, comes back in to turn
[19:23] Speaker 1: it on the kitchen light real quick, and the lights
[19:25] Speaker 1: none of the lights will come on. And now We're like, Okay,
[19:28] Speaker 1: that's kind of weird, you know, like you know, either
[19:30] Speaker 1: a weird coincidence or there's something to it, you know.
[19:33] Speaker 1: So we started asking questions. You know, the thing, the
[19:36] Speaker 1: whatever I can't remember the name of the glass piece
[19:38] Speaker 1: of what it's called, but whatever that's called that you know,
[19:40] Speaker 1: it's doing this thing or whatever. Rasking questions. We're getting answers,
[19:44] Speaker 1: and next thing, you know, like some of the guys
[19:46] Speaker 1: that are a sleeping or they're like, you know, hey,
[19:48] Speaker 1: stop stop pinching me, stop hitting me. We're like, what's
[19:51] Speaker 1: going on? You know, they kind of wake up. They're
[19:52] Speaker 1: like somethings, O wed, you know, are you guys like
[19:54] Speaker 1: bothering us? Or I can't us? Like what are you
[19:56] Speaker 1: guys doing? You're like like, no, we're all sitting over here.
[19:59] Speaker 1: You know, we're not doing anything to you. And you know,
[20:02] Speaker 1: so they go back to sleep and continue again, and
[20:04] Speaker 1: people are kind of kind of getting scared. In this
[20:07] Speaker 1: the table, I was kind of on one corner. Everybody
[20:09] Speaker 1: scootered in towards where I was, like on both sides
[20:12] Speaker 1: of me, So we kept asking more questions. Well, the
[20:15] Speaker 1: side that was vacated, that corner of that table raised
[20:19] Speaker 1: on its own and just dropped down, and we're like,
[20:22] Speaker 1: what the hell, you know, that's kind of freaky, and
[20:25] Speaker 1: so we decided to okay, you know, that's where we
[20:28] Speaker 1: should have ended it, you know, but we didn't. So
[20:30] Speaker 1: we continued and we moved everything to the floor, and
[20:33] Speaker 1: so I are there. The kid that was next to
[20:36] Speaker 1: me sat down first on the ground that I sat down.
[20:39] Speaker 1: Then we were both kind of sitting there and waiting
[20:41] Speaker 1: for everybody to join us. And while we're sitting there,
[20:43] Speaker 1: I felt extremely that I couldn't even explain it. It's
[20:46] Speaker 1: almost walking downto a freezer. I felt like that type
[20:48] Speaker 1: of cool temperature walked right by me. I was like,
[20:51] Speaker 1: what in the heck was that? I looked over at
[20:53] Speaker 1: the connects me. He just had that look good like
[20:54] Speaker 1: he felt it too. I was like, you felt that,
[20:56] Speaker 1: and he's like, yeah, that was coold, wasn't it. And
[20:58] Speaker 1: I was like, that's kind of weird. So we're on
[21:02] Speaker 1: the ground, asking questions, you know, making this longer than
[21:05] Speaker 1: it should have been, and we should have ended it
[21:06] Speaker 1: by then, but so we're asking more questions and all
[21:09] Speaker 1: of a sudden, something like a toy or drumstick. I
[21:12] Speaker 1: can't really remember what it was, but it got thrown
[21:15] Speaker 1: from the hallway to like where we were, and that's,
[21:18] Speaker 1: you know, that was their science kind of the end
[21:19] Speaker 1: of it. So we edited right there and I felt
[21:22] Speaker 1: like that was a pretty crazy experience with Luigi Board.
[21:25] Speaker 1: So from then on. That was around when I was
[21:27] Speaker 1: seventeen or eighteen. I don't have anything else happened to
[21:29] Speaker 1: me intil like my twenties. This is another UF folks
[21:32] Speaker 1: waens that I had. We're at a river or a
[21:35] Speaker 1: creek called Tully and we're there hanging out and we're like, well,
[21:40] Speaker 1: the last groups there, like me and three other people,
[21:43] Speaker 1: I remember the one the last one was there. And
[21:45] Speaker 1: when we're getting ready to leave, my friend I drove
[21:48] Speaker 1: us there. Her car wouldn't start and it was dead
[21:51] Speaker 1: because she left her stereo on playing, and so we
[21:54] Speaker 1: were stuck there for a bit waiting for someone to
[21:56] Speaker 1: come jump the vehicles so we can get going. Well,
[21:58] Speaker 1: we're standing at the edge of the riverbed, hanging out
[22:02] Speaker 1: towards the sky. Well I looking out toward the sky.
[22:04] Speaker 1: Everybody was kind of just throwing rocks on the water
[22:06] Speaker 1: and just kind of hanging out, talking stuff. All of
[22:08] Speaker 1: a sudden, I see, like to the left side of
[22:10] Speaker 1: me and the sky is this little ball and a
[22:13] Speaker 1: light of ball in the sky, and it looked like
[22:15] Speaker 1: the tip of like the cherry of a cigarette the
[22:17] Speaker 1: way the color was. I was like, what what is that?
[22:20] Speaker 1: You know, like it was kind of moving, It wasn't
[22:21] Speaker 1: doing anything too crazy, so I didn't think much of it. Then,
[22:24] Speaker 1: like I kind of got everbody's attention to looked at it.
[22:27] Speaker 1: Then when we were looking at it, it decided to
[22:28] Speaker 1: shoot way across across the other side of the sky
[22:31] Speaker 1: to my right side, and I was like, what and
[22:33] Speaker 1: the heck is going on? Then this is kind of
[22:36] Speaker 1: a short lived experience. But it shot across to the
[22:38] Speaker 1: left again. Then it just kind of faded out towards,
[22:42] Speaker 1: you know, to the opposite direct towards the sky more
[22:44] Speaker 1: and kind of disappeared, and you know, after that, I
[22:48] Speaker 1: didn't really see it. So after that, again, I don't
[22:51] Speaker 1: really have much experience with anything. Until my mid to
[22:54] Speaker 1: late twenties. I was at my friend's house and uh,
[22:58] Speaker 1: this was the time when the first squid games came out,
[23:01] Speaker 1: so we're at that time, I wasn't really interested in
[23:05] Speaker 1: the show Scooter Games. I wasn't in the hand of it.
[23:07] Speaker 1: I know everybody else's but I wasn't a fan of it.
[23:09] Speaker 1: So everybody else was watching it. I was kind of
[23:12] Speaker 1: just like zoning out, staring at the wall, which I
[23:14] Speaker 1: was kind of more just like thinking about stuff. And
[23:16] Speaker 1: I was just looking out on the wall thinking, and
[23:17] Speaker 1: I was I guess kind of to give it. Like
[23:20] Speaker 1: before that, like a couple of days later, my my
[23:22] Speaker 1: friend had a bat problem at a couple of bats
[23:24] Speaker 1: in his attic, and uh then he got rid of them,
[23:28] Speaker 1: and uh so, but like I said, watching Scooter Games,
[23:31] Speaker 1: I'm just kind of staring at the wall, and next
[23:33] Speaker 1: thing you know, there's a bat flying through the living room.
[23:35] Speaker 1: We're like, you know, everybody's like poot and hollering, you know,
[23:38] Speaker 1: bats flying through the room. We're all kind of freaking
[23:39] Speaker 1: out trying to get it out and stuff. But after
[23:42] Speaker 1: we got it knocked down and out of the house,
[23:44] Speaker 1: it kind of clicked to my head. I was like,
[23:45] Speaker 1: while I was staring at the wall, I knew I
[23:47] Speaker 1: seen the bat, Like it looked like it flew through
[23:49] Speaker 1: the wall, like coming from outside the inside. It flew
[23:51] Speaker 1: through the wall, and I I was like, I have
[23:54] Speaker 1: to bring it up. You know. Luckily, my friends are
[23:57] Speaker 1: you know, kind of into into all this crazy stuff.
[24:00] Speaker 1: Like I said, you're going to call it crazy, But
[24:02] Speaker 1: my friend that owns the home, I was sitting right
[24:05] Speaker 1: next to me in the same couch, he was like,
[24:08] Speaker 1: that's exactly what I saw too. He's like, I don't
[24:10] Speaker 1: want to say anything, so I don't want to sound crazy.
[24:11] Speaker 1: And he's like, why do you brought it up? Because
[24:13] Speaker 1: he's like, that's what I saw. And we didn't bring
[24:15] Speaker 1: it up right away at the moment when it happened,
[24:16] Speaker 1: because with the bat flying through the house, we're all
[24:19] Speaker 1: kind of freaking out and to kind of confirm what
[24:22] Speaker 1: we were, to make us believe that what we saw
[24:25] Speaker 1: was real. Is maybe a week later, we had a
[24:27] Speaker 1: friend come over while I was hating out there, and
[24:31] Speaker 1: I guess you didn't describe her kind of more in
[24:33] Speaker 1: tune or kind of witchy. I guess, you know, she
[24:35] Speaker 1: just got up out of her chair while we were
[24:37] Speaker 1: sitting at the table we're talking, and she's like, she
[24:39] Speaker 1: goes directly to the area where the bat came through
[24:42] Speaker 1: the wall, and she was like, what's so weird about
[24:43] Speaker 1: this area? She's like I sent some type of energy,
[24:46] Speaker 1: and like I told her the whole story, and she's like, Okay,
[24:48] Speaker 1: that makes a lot of sense. And I was like,
[24:50] Speaker 1: that's kind of crazy that she just got up out
[24:51] Speaker 1: of nowhere and kind of pointed at the same exact
[24:55] Speaker 1: area where the bat came out of. So my next
[24:58] Speaker 1: stories are kind of short. So at my mom's house,
[25:01] Speaker 1: I want to go check on her dog, and I
[25:03] Speaker 1: brought my dog with me, and this at this time,
[25:05] Speaker 1: my dog was still a puppy, so he's kind of
[25:07] Speaker 1: always getting into stuff or kind of marking his area
[25:09] Speaker 1: a little bit when he's a puppy still, and I
[25:11] Speaker 1: always tried to catch the closer eye on them, so
[25:12] Speaker 1: he wasn't doing that at my mom's house. So I
[25:15] Speaker 1: decided to make like a sandwich to I. So I
[25:17] Speaker 1: was facing for the sink and I heard something run
[25:20] Speaker 1: down the stairs super hard and fast. I was like what.
[25:23] Speaker 1: I was, like, what I was? I call him from
[25:24] Speaker 1: my dog come up here, and he was literally in
[25:26] Speaker 1: the next room over in the living room, and so
[25:29] Speaker 1: was my mom's dog. And there's someone else in the
[25:30] Speaker 1: house and like, that's kind of weird. And Lady had
[25:33] Speaker 1: some of their own experiences. My mom seem like a
[25:37] Speaker 1: like maybe a six foot to seven foot shadow figure
[25:40] Speaker 1: come from the garage, walked across to her back door
[25:44] Speaker 1: and walked through the door without it being open. She's
[25:47] Speaker 1: also seen an old man kind of obviously wasn't a
[25:51] Speaker 1: living old man, but an old man comes from the
[25:53] Speaker 1: kitchen and walk into the spare bedroom. So my next
[25:58] Speaker 1: UFO experience that I did have was this is actually
[26:01] Speaker 1: my most recent U folksperence. Just happened maybe like a
[26:03] Speaker 1: year ago now. I was over at my mom's herd
[26:05] Speaker 1: and I went to take their trash off for her.
[26:08] Speaker 1: So I went took out the trash. I was coming
[26:11] Speaker 1: back from taking the trash to go off through the
[26:13] Speaker 1: front door, but before I got up to the steps
[26:16] Speaker 1: and stuff, I was still on the sidewalk I was.
[26:19] Speaker 1: I just happened to look up and there was something
[26:22] Speaker 1: stationary for just a moment, just like just sitting there
[26:25] Speaker 1: in the sky. It didn't look like the orange a
[26:29] Speaker 1: cigarette lit type of light that I seen from the
[26:31] Speaker 1: other UFO. It was more like it was more looked
[26:35] Speaker 1: more like the star for a second, but it was
[26:37] Speaker 1: literally just sitting there then just shot across the sky
[26:39] Speaker 1: at like at one of the fastest speeds that I
[26:41] Speaker 1: could ever, you couldn't even comprehend how fast it was going.
[26:44] Speaker 1: And after that, you know, I didn't see that at
[26:47] Speaker 1: all anymore. So my last UFO store that I do have,
[26:50] Speaker 1: it actually comes to ride after the time I saw
[26:53] Speaker 1: the bat, but before I see my last UFO that
[26:55] Speaker 1: I just seen, And I kind of saved this one
[26:58] Speaker 1: for the end because it's kind of, you know, a
[26:59] Speaker 1: crazy your experience. But I was at a this is
[27:03] Speaker 1: Memorial Day weekend, I would say about four years ago,
[27:07] Speaker 1: or yeah, about four or twenty twenty six, about yeah,
[27:10] Speaker 1: four years ago, we were at Me and my friend
[27:15] Speaker 1: that I saw that bat with and two other people.
[27:17] Speaker 1: We went to like this EDM kind of music event,
[27:22] Speaker 1: and uh, at first it was kind of borrying. There
[27:24] Speaker 1: was nobody there. We kind of got there a little
[27:26] Speaker 1: too early. We left, waited about an hour or two,
[27:28] Speaker 1: came back against So by this time we got back,
[27:31] Speaker 1: it was a little bit darker. We're just sitting there
[27:34] Speaker 1: for a little bit longer. You know, people start showing
[27:36] Speaker 1: up more so like, hey, let's sit up there with
[27:37] Speaker 1: the music and stuff, get up there with the crowd,
[27:40] Speaker 1: and this is a little more laid back event, and
[27:42] Speaker 1: uh so we're all just kind of chilling, hanging out.
[27:44] Speaker 1: I had one friend closer up to the front, we
[27:47] Speaker 1: had her other friends. She was standing near us and
[27:49] Speaker 1: they had this big bubble wand she was playing with
[27:52] Speaker 1: that and me and my buddy were just kind of
[27:54] Speaker 1: standing there talking with her, talking with some people around us.
[27:56] Speaker 1: And then she spun the bubble wand around and there's
[28:00] Speaker 1: like big bubbles and there's first reason. I just kept
[28:03] Speaker 1: my eye on this one. And this bubbles kept going up,
[28:07] Speaker 1: kept going up towards the sky, and I was like, okay,
[28:08] Speaker 1: that's cool. And then like I kept both kind of
[28:10] Speaker 1: it was like getting higher and higher. I was like, okay,
[28:12] Speaker 1: that's crazy. Like they just kept getting higher. I was like,
[28:15] Speaker 1: what in the world this thing is going up there?
[28:17] Speaker 1: And next thing you know, it gets kind of far
[28:19] Speaker 1: up it hits as far as I know, this is
[28:23] Speaker 1: what it was, is the UFO, and it hits the UFO.
[28:25] Speaker 1: But at the time there was nothing there. It's like
[28:27] Speaker 1: the UFO was cloaked into the sky. But as soon
[28:30] Speaker 1: as the bubble hit it, and I feel like it
[28:33] Speaker 1: almost felt surreal, like it was almost time flowed down.
[28:35] Speaker 1: Just the tap bit or the bubble hit the UFO
[28:38] Speaker 1: and it I can't describe the color. It was almost
[28:40] Speaker 1: like a pearlish color, as a prism almost, and it
[28:44] Speaker 1: reflected that color and it next thing, you know, it
[28:49] Speaker 1: moved forward. And when it moved forward, you see a
[28:52] Speaker 1: light like I seen that UFO with the that was
[28:55] Speaker 1: more like a cherry tiped cigarette the tip of a cigarette.
[28:57] Speaker 1: That's the way it looked. And that there for a second.
[29:00] Speaker 1: Then it shot across the moon and I was like,
[29:03] Speaker 1: what in the world at the speed it went and
[29:06] Speaker 1: went past the moon like within seconds. I like, my
[29:08] Speaker 1: mouth just just dropped, like almost like in a cartoon
[29:11] Speaker 1: when like their mouth dropped to like when their dog
[29:13] Speaker 1: drops to the ground. I'm stuttering and stammering, and I'm like,
[29:16] Speaker 1: came get words out. Everybody's kind of look looking at
[29:19] Speaker 1: me funny. And I turned around and look at my
[29:20] Speaker 1: friend and his jaw is wide open. I'm like, you
[29:23] Speaker 1: just seen that, didn't you, And He's like, what was that? Like?
[29:27] Speaker 1: I instantly had to go inside into the to the
[29:29] Speaker 1: club that where I had to go inside and grab
[29:31] Speaker 1: a beer and try it nounce. It shocked me so
[29:33] Speaker 1: much that fast, like to this day, That's something we
[29:37] Speaker 1: always talked about. It's honestly something I almost think about
[29:39] Speaker 1: every day because it's just something you can't comprehend as
[29:41] Speaker 1: what was that? Like? I almost feel like it had
[29:44] Speaker 1: like a manipulated reality a little bit. They wanted me
[29:46] Speaker 1: to see it. Like with these things, I feel like
[29:48] Speaker 1: they're smart, they're intelligent. They want you to see them
[29:51] Speaker 1: sometimes and like not everybody sees them, but I think
[29:54] Speaker 1: when they want you to see them, they'll definitely let
[29:56] Speaker 1: you see them. So yeah, that's my last thing that
[29:58] Speaker 1: I have for you.

[30:27] Speaker 2: One Life, One Story podcast at gmail dot com, One Life,
[30:31] Speaker 2: One Story, listen wherever you get your podcasts. Wow, thank
[30:42] Speaker 2: you for sharing all that. It makes you wonder if
[30:45] Speaker 2: are you looking for these things or are these things
[30:48] Speaker 2: finding you, it does.
[30:49] Speaker 1: Make you wonder that, and sometimes I feel like, honestly,
[30:52] Speaker 1: with me, I'm always looking at the sky. A few
[30:54] Speaker 1: other things I've seen, but I can't always confirm or
[30:56] Speaker 1: what it was, you know, so I don't really tell
[30:57] Speaker 1: those stories. You know. Ever since I was a kid,
[30:59] Speaker 1: I'm constantly looking at the sky. That's why, you know,
[31:02] Speaker 1: sometimes I feel like I do get lucky and see
[31:04] Speaker 1: these things, but they're always there. Honestly, like I said,
[31:07] Speaker 1: the last time I saw it was cloaked a little
[31:09] Speaker 1: like I would have known who is there until it
[31:11] Speaker 1: shut itself.
[31:12] Speaker 2: You know, have you reported any of these?
[31:14] Speaker 1: I haven't, actually I have not as far as.
[31:16] Speaker 2: You If you ever get a chance to just drop
[31:18] Speaker 2: down as much detail as you can about each UFO
[31:21] Speaker 2: sighting and report them, you know, report them to move
[31:26] Speaker 2: on or the National UFO Reporting Center.
[31:29] Speaker 1: Yeah, I will do that.
[31:30] Speaker 2: Actually, being in Nebraska, now you must have some super
[31:33] Speaker 2: clear skies.
[31:34] Speaker 1: Sometimes I do. I live in a town, but like
[31:37] Speaker 1: literally if you go within like five to ten minutes
[31:39] Speaker 1: out side of town and there's really not much light pollution.
[31:42] Speaker 1: And we have actually an area more closer to the
[31:44] Speaker 1: river called the Platte River around here, but we have
[31:47] Speaker 1: a lot of sandtal cranes. It's an area where there's
[31:49] Speaker 1: absolutely no light pollution at all. There's not allowed to
[31:53] Speaker 1: have any lights in that area just for that reason.
[31:55] Speaker 2: Yeah, it must be great nighttime viewing because Nebraska is
[31:58] Speaker 2: a lot of prairie, isn't it not prairie? It is
[32:00] Speaker 2: famous for it. Is there any UFO groups around your area?
[32:04] Speaker 1: Not really, honestly, as far as I've looked, no, And
[32:07] Speaker 1: I don't know. The thing is that around here, people
[32:09] Speaker 1: like when they do see things or have any experiences
[32:11] Speaker 1: and stuff like that, they kind of keep it on
[32:14] Speaker 1: the hush hush. They don't want people to look at
[32:16] Speaker 1: you as crazy er. They just don't want to. They
[32:18] Speaker 1: just don't like sharing their experiences.
[32:19] Speaker 2: Yeah, that's understandable.
[32:21] Speaker 1: Yeah, And actually I went to the we have a
[32:23] Speaker 1: Bigfoot convention here, which is crazy because I'm not thought
[32:26] Speaker 1: there isn't bigfoot around here, but in my town specifically,
[32:28] Speaker 1: I know there isn't really, but we had the Bigfoot
[32:30] Speaker 1: convention here and I went to it last year. It's
[32:32] Speaker 1: every April, and I was able to tell my story
[32:36] Speaker 1: to a couple of people that were there, and they've
[32:38] Speaker 1: foughten a lot of stories from around this area.
[32:41] Speaker 2: That's pretty interesting. I've never gone to a Bigfoot convention.
[32:44] Speaker 2: I've always wanted to, though.
[32:45] Speaker 1: Yeah, pretty fun and you get to meet a lot
[32:47] Speaker 1: of cool people.
[32:47] Speaker 2: You know. I know a lot of people involved and
[32:49] Speaker 2: some even that put on conventions around, but I've just
[32:52] Speaker 2: never gone to one. But you know, you've got some
[32:54] Speaker 2: interesting accounts here, these little people, these duendes. We're talking
[32:59] Speaker 2: the beginning about Mexican culture and how prevalent this is.
[33:03] Speaker 2: Would your parents speak about these little people much?
[33:07] Speaker 1: Uh? Yeah, especially like my stepdad. I'll tell you another
[33:10] Speaker 1: story with Ted, and he had so when he was
[33:12] Speaker 1: younger in Mexico, honestly, I mean, I'm sure in England
[33:16] Speaker 1: drinking culture is kind of a big thing too, but
[33:18] Speaker 1: like in Mexico, drinking is a big thing as well.
[33:20] Speaker 1: And you can start at kind of a younger age
[33:22] Speaker 1: and what you can in the US and US got
[33:23] Speaker 1: to wait till you're twenty one. But you know, by
[33:25] Speaker 1: the time you were sixteen, Mexca they kind of considered
[33:27] Speaker 1: a man. And so he was probably about his late teens,
[33:30] Speaker 1: early twenties, and he went to the local bar they
[33:33] Speaker 1: had there, you know, kind of got drunk, but he
[33:37] Speaker 1: knew his way home and he was okay getting home
[33:39] Speaker 1: every night or every time he went. Well, there was
[33:42] Speaker 1: one night he went and he didn't come back right
[33:44] Speaker 1: away or at the time he was kind of expected
[33:46] Speaker 1: to be home, you know, and so his parents were like,
[33:49] Speaker 1: you know, what's going on. You know, the kind of
[33:50] Speaker 1: kind of worried. Retraced his steps to where, you know,
[33:54] Speaker 1: the way he'd always go there and come back, and like,
[33:57] Speaker 1: you know, we never found him. You know, Well, they
[33:59] Speaker 1: decided to retrace their steps again and go back and
[34:02] Speaker 1: come back. But when they came back, they kind of
[34:04] Speaker 1: took a different route, and I think kind of where
[34:06] Speaker 1: they went through was kind of more of a secluded
[34:08] Speaker 1: wooded area. They're like, you know, just you know, by chance,
[34:11] Speaker 1: maybe kind of got lost, fall asleep or something. Well,
[34:13] Speaker 1: when they found them, they found him tied down to
[34:15] Speaker 1: the ground, and they found you know, little people like
[34:18] Speaker 1: near him trying to tie him down and stuff. When
[34:20] Speaker 1: they got close to him, you know, they're kind of
[34:22] Speaker 1: scattered off and they untied him, and he was you know,
[34:25] Speaker 1: he was in shock and disbelief and couldn't believe what
[34:27] Speaker 1: was going on.
[34:28] Speaker 2: And did he ever describe what they look like.
[34:30] Speaker 1: You know, the ones he described they like they look
[34:32] Speaker 1: like us, but they looked older and they're just small stature.
[34:36] Speaker 1: So I know a lot of other ones they kind
[34:37] Speaker 1: of described more like Elvish or like maybe like fade type.
[34:40] Speaker 1: But these are more and I'm not saying these aren't.
[34:42] Speaker 1: I'm not saying wrong, but these ones looked a little similar,
[34:45] Speaker 1: more to us, kind of more like we describing Native
[34:47] Speaker 1: American culture blamey.
[34:49] Speaker 2: So you go out of an evening, you get taken
[34:52] Speaker 2: on your way home.
[34:53] Speaker 1: And sometimes it's not even that you're taken. They kind
[34:55] Speaker 1: of like not seduce you, but convince you to go
[34:58] Speaker 1: or like lead you astray, almost.
[35:00] Speaker 2: So kind of kind of playful in a way.
[35:02] Speaker 1: Mischievous, very mischievous, very mischievous.
[35:04] Speaker 2: Because all cultures have these, all countries have these little people.
[35:09] Speaker 2: They're everywhere, These little folk seem to be everywhere, and
[35:13] Speaker 2: then they go back a long way, they go back
[35:15] Speaker 2: centuries stories of these yep.
[35:18] Speaker 1: I've actually lived on a couple of Native American reservations
[35:20] Speaker 1: a little bit, and one of the first ones I
[35:22] Speaker 1: lived in, I was part of this youth group where
[35:24] Speaker 1: kind of like a church group, and the lady running it.
[35:27] Speaker 1: I don't know. She would always kind of tell us,
[35:28] Speaker 1: tell us crazy stories. So I'll give you a couple
[35:31] Speaker 1: that she told us. One was when her parents or
[35:34] Speaker 1: grandparents they lived in New Mexico, when they're just driving
[35:37] Speaker 1: down a road and next thing you know, she said
[35:39] Speaker 1: that they're driving and they're radio is kind of acting funny.
[35:42] Speaker 1: This one's more UFO, but they're radio is kind of
[35:44] Speaker 1: acting funny and staticky and stuff like that. And next
[35:46] Speaker 1: thing you know, it says that they see a bright
[35:48] Speaker 1: light behind them and that's all they remember. And next
[35:51] Speaker 1: thing you know, they're driving on the road again. That's
[35:53] Speaker 1: like four hours later and they're in the same spot
[35:56] Speaker 1: where they kind of like last remember. But another story
[35:59] Speaker 1: that she told me about the little people was that
[36:01] Speaker 1: or one night to hold their kids to go to bed.
[36:03] Speaker 1: They're kind of acting misbehaving that night, didn't want to
[36:05] Speaker 1: go to bed and stuff. But she finally was able
[36:07] Speaker 1: to get him into the room and go to sleep
[36:09] Speaker 1: and stuff. Fall. Like an hour or two later, he
[36:12] Speaker 1: hears like a lot of emotion coming from their bedroom,
[36:15] Speaker 1: like jumping on the bed, running around, you know, stuff
[36:18] Speaker 1: like kids do. And she goes in there and it's
[36:21] Speaker 1: a bunk bed that they have, and her two boys
[36:23] Speaker 1: are on the bottom bunk, pulled up in the corner
[36:25] Speaker 1: and curled up to each other, scared the desk, and
[36:27] Speaker 1: she looks up and it's just two little people in
[36:30] Speaker 1: the bed and next thing you know, they run off
[36:32] Speaker 1: the window and he hears them on the roof front
[36:34] Speaker 1: and getting away and stuff.
[36:36] Speaker 2: Craiky because it was your uncle, wasn't it which had
[36:39] Speaker 2: this incident?
[36:39] Speaker 1: That was that?
[36:40] Speaker 2: That was in Iowa?
[36:41] Speaker 1: Yeah, y up in Iowa.
[36:42] Speaker 2: And is he still the rain today? Have you ever
[36:44] Speaker 2: spoken to him by that?
[36:46] Speaker 1: Yeah? But my dad's side of the family, they're kind
[36:48] Speaker 1: of super religious, so they don't really like talking about
[36:51] Speaker 1: any of that type of stuff. I would have never
[36:52] Speaker 1: known about the if it wasn't for my mom telling
[36:54] Speaker 1: me any of it, because she's into stuff like this. Obviously.
[36:57] Speaker 1: She's the one that had that book that I found
[36:59] Speaker 1: while I was younger, when I was like three or four.
[37:00] Speaker 1: So she's always been kind of into t UFOs and
[37:04] Speaker 1: ghosts and stuff like that.
[37:05] Speaker 2: Yeah, that sounds like being my mother. Actually, I was
[37:08] Speaker 2: always into the paranormal, in UFOs and dinosaurs when I
[37:11] Speaker 2: was a kid. Yeap, what about the house you in now,
[37:14] Speaker 2: have you ever had anything going on there?
[37:16] Speaker 1: Curently? You know? Like I said, the most recent thing
[37:18] Speaker 1: I had was that UFO experience I had taken on
[37:20] Speaker 1: the crash. Other than that, I haven't had like too
[37:23] Speaker 1: many things going on crazy.
[37:24] Speaker 2: Is that a good or a bad thing?
[37:26] Speaker 1: I mean, you don't bother me. I just know something
[37:27] Speaker 1: that's coming eventually. I brought that last one tit wasn't
[37:30] Speaker 1: the last thing. I probably all see, you know.
[37:32] Speaker 2: And when it comes to the paranormal, is this something
[37:35] Speaker 2: you actively c k or it just always seem to
[37:37] Speaker 2: happen with you?
[37:38] Speaker 1: No, I don't. It's always seemed to happen with me.
[37:41] Speaker 1: And I don't know if it's because of that experience
[37:43] Speaker 1: so I had it when I was a baby, and
[37:44] Speaker 1: it's just you know, that connects you with it, or
[37:48] Speaker 1: maybe just because of I don't know. Sometimes maybe it's
[37:50] Speaker 1: just your frequency that you radiate that they kind of
[37:53] Speaker 1: decide to show themselves to you or have experiences with you.
[37:57] Speaker 1: But at the same time, I feel like this stuff
[37:59] Speaker 1: is all around, it always constantly going on, and some
[38:02] Speaker 1: people are just more in tune to it and see
[38:03] Speaker 1: it more.
[38:04] Speaker 2: It is around us. We live in We live in
[38:06] Speaker 2: pretty much two worlds. All this goes on around us,
[38:09] Speaker 2: and I think it depends on the person whether, like
[38:12] Speaker 2: you said, you know we're tuned to it or not.
[38:14] Speaker 1: And I actually do have one more story for you.
[38:16] Speaker 1: And this isn't my own story. This is kind of
[38:18] Speaker 1: a story I overheard where I was working on this
[38:21] Speaker 1: deep plant a few years ago, and this is And
[38:23] Speaker 1: I didn't really ask these people anything about it. I
[38:27] Speaker 1: was in a locker room cleaning up the locker room,
[38:28] Speaker 1: and these guys were like talking with each other, and
[38:30] Speaker 1: he's the guy of the story and confidential, and I
[38:33] Speaker 1: didn't when asking for it, didn't want to seem like
[38:34] Speaker 1: I was being nosy or anything. But he's telling this
[38:37] Speaker 1: guy a story in Spanish. And so he lives in
[38:39] Speaker 1: the same town I do, but he lives kind of
[38:42] Speaker 1: more on the countryside of town. So he was at
[38:45] Speaker 1: home hanging out with some friends. They're drinking some beers,
[38:48] Speaker 1: they're on his court, and it was late at night
[38:50] Speaker 1: and he sees out in the field in the distance
[38:52] Speaker 1: like this, you know, bright light coming down into the
[38:55] Speaker 1: field and it like landed. He said, He's like, oh,
[38:58] Speaker 1: go check it out. You know, and he was kind
[38:59] Speaker 1: of clueless to what it was or what it could
[39:01] Speaker 1: have been, but he said that once he you know,
[39:03] Speaker 1: got closer to it, and this story is kind of
[39:06] Speaker 1: you know, I mean, I'm sure you heard some crazy ones,
[39:08] Speaker 1: but this one's kind of crazy too. And he got
[39:10] Speaker 1: closer to it, and the craft opened up and as
[39:13] Speaker 1: you know, an alien being like almost like a gray.
[39:15] Speaker 1: He said, like, well, I didn't call it a gray,
[39:17] Speaker 1: but it was what the way he described it is
[39:19] Speaker 1: what I would consider a gray, and it came out.
[39:22] Speaker 1: He says, after that, all next thing he remembers is
[39:24] Speaker 1: just being back on his portrait again. Well, next thing,
[39:27] Speaker 1: you know, he says that the neighbors truck just started
[39:30] Speaker 1: on its own and started like just driving around on
[39:32] Speaker 1: its own, like backing down the road and stuff. He's like,
[39:35] Speaker 1: what is going on, you know, and his friend are
[39:36] Speaker 1: kind of like confused and kind of scared, and he says,
[39:40] Speaker 1: the next thing, you know, another vehicle shows up, and
[39:42] Speaker 1: it's like an older vehicle from like the fifties and sixties,
[39:44] Speaker 1: and it's like two or three men what we considered
[39:47] Speaker 1: the men. I'm black, you know, and he says they
[39:49] Speaker 1: come out of the vehicle and the next thing, you know,
[39:51] Speaker 1: he doesn't remember anything again. He just remembers being on
[39:53] Speaker 1: his porch and everything being Norman calm, calm and normal again.
[39:57] Speaker 2: And you overheard all this in the locker room.
[40:00] Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I was kind of on the other side
[40:02] Speaker 1: of the lockers cleaning, and he was talking to his buddy.
[40:04] Speaker 1: You know, he's like telling him, Hey, I'm telling you this.
[40:06] Speaker 1: I don't want to sound crazy anybody, but you're my
[40:08] Speaker 1: good friend, and I want to tell you that I
[40:10] Speaker 1: need to get this off my chest, you know, and
[40:13] Speaker 1: born and asking questions. But I didn't because I didn't
[40:15] Speaker 1: want to seem like I was being like a nosy guy.
[40:17] Speaker 1: But yeah, I was just just by chance. You know,
[40:20] Speaker 1: the universe is weird like that, just by chances. I
[40:22] Speaker 1: all to catch that story.
[40:24] Speaker 2: What did his buddy say?
[40:25] Speaker 1: His buddy was kind of disbelief. He's like, that's kind
[40:27] Speaker 1: of crazy, and he's like, I believe you, but that's
[40:29] Speaker 1: like crazy.
[40:30] Speaker 2: You know, that's pretty interesting. And that was outside of
[40:33] Speaker 2: Grand Island, was it?
[40:34] Speaker 1: Yep?
[40:35] Speaker 2: Well, you know, to our listeners, if you're right there

[40:41] Speaker 2: do get in contact. We want to know a little
[40:43] Speaker 2: bit more about that. Oh yeah, what's going on in Nebraska.
[40:46] Speaker 2: There's a lot of activity there in mind.

[40:50] Speaker 1: of me a place called Valentine, Nebraska. There's a lot
[40:53] Speaker 1: of crazy stuff out there. Like I said, there's a
[40:55] Speaker 1: lot of stuff going on here, just a lot of
[40:56] Speaker 1: people don't talk.
[40:57] Speaker 2: Yeah, and we want people to talk. If you're in Nebraska,

[41:15] Speaker 2: Definitely.
[41:16] Speaker 1: You're bringing that up. Patent reminds me, I do have
[41:18] Speaker 1: a lot of dreams about UFOs too. Like I've had
[41:21] Speaker 1: a dream like where I was walking down the sidewalk
[41:23] Speaker 1: and I look up the sky and I see like
[41:25] Speaker 1: what looks like a hawk or some type of bird,
[41:27] Speaker 1: you know, and the next thing, you know, but it's
[41:29] Speaker 1: shaped system to a UFO. I've had dreams of like
[41:33] Speaker 1: our high school. We have high school, well, we have
[41:34] Speaker 1: three high schools here, but with the high school I
[41:36] Speaker 1: went to, and it's like there was like three UFOs
[41:40] Speaker 1: on the field, and like me and my family are
[41:42] Speaker 1: facing you, like all my family, like my immediate family,
[41:45] Speaker 1: like my brothers, my sister, and my mom. We're all
[41:47] Speaker 1: standing in there facing the UFOs like like we're ready
[41:49] Speaker 1: to get in it.
[41:50] Speaker 2: And did you get on?
[41:51] Speaker 1: I honestly can't remember. I feel like I did, though,
[41:53] Speaker 1: But sometimes it makes you wonder if they're really dreams
[41:55] Speaker 1: or not. Though it does.
[41:57] Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, of course we have some pretty weird
[41:59] Speaker 2: dreams sometimes, but yeah, a lot of people dream about UFOs.
[42:03] Speaker 1: I get.
[42:04] Speaker 2: I've quite a lot of emails when it comes to
[42:06] Speaker 2: just dreams alone. You know, sometimes they haven't seen anything,
[42:09] Speaker 2: they'd have these really weird, vivid dreams and believe or not.
[42:13] Speaker 2: Sometimes they come from people which have zero interest in
[42:16] Speaker 2: the subject, like they don't watch science fiction movies, are
[42:19] Speaker 2: not interested in the UFO field, they didn't watch the documentaries,
[42:21] Speaker 2: but they had this really strange UFO dream.
[42:25] Speaker 1: My dreams are just crazy in generals, and thrown out
[42:27] Speaker 1: the UFOs into it just makes it even crazier.
[42:29] Speaker 2: Sometimes, I've I've always believed that if if you have
[42:32] Speaker 2: a faviord dream, you should always look into it. Also
[42:34] Speaker 2: you'll see what you think it can be about and
[42:36] Speaker 2: that and sometimes you know, if they're telling you something,
[42:39] Speaker 2: maybe listen. Ye, especially if someone comes to you in
[42:42] Speaker 2: a dream past relative. I think that sometimes that's the
[42:46] Speaker 2: only way they can can come to you is via
[42:49] Speaker 2: your dreams.
[42:50] Speaker 1: Yeah, no, I agree. I've always, like you know, I
[42:52] Speaker 1: always tell my stories to you know, mostly like any
[42:55] Speaker 1: chance I even get I can I hear someone talking
[42:57] Speaker 1: about your ghosts. I always tell my stories. But I've
[43:00] Speaker 1: never reprogramed for a database, so that's price thing I
[43:02] Speaker 1: should do.
[43:03] Speaker 2: But well, you know, but what you're doing, you're like
[43:04] Speaker 2: a missionary really for the UFO subject and paranormal stories,
[43:08] Speaker 2: because if you go out and speak to people about
[43:11] Speaker 2: this stuff, they've always got someone else to share where
[43:13] Speaker 2: people won't. They don't have too much of a habit
[43:16] Speaker 2: to speaking about it. But as soon as you do
[43:18] Speaker 2: mention something there, so that's like, oh, yeah, I've got
[43:20] Speaker 2: something I want to share with you.
[43:22] Speaker 1: Yep. I always get the thing where I'm talking to
[43:23] Speaker 1: someone else about it, and this someone's like I've never
[43:25] Speaker 1: had any experiences they hear you talking, They're like, oh,
[43:28] Speaker 1: you know what, I did have this one thing happened
[43:30] Speaker 1: to me. Yeah.
[43:31] Speaker 2: They always say that all this one thing.
[43:32] Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, that's what I'm saying. I feel like there's
[43:34] Speaker 1: things going on all around us at all times, every
[43:36] Speaker 1: single day.
[43:37] Speaker 2: I agree, and it makes the world an interesting place.
