    S8E10 - 5 TRUE Scary Stories: Something Was With Me Last Night

    Hey everyone, it’s been a while since I last released a podcast episode, so I thought it was time to bring back the kind of content you all love. In this episode, I’ve gathered some intriguing stories from Reddit, covering everything from paranormal encounters to creepy ex-boyfriends to strange creatures spotted on the road. Whether or not you believe these tales, they’re all claimed to be real experiences. We’re kicking things off with a story about a man suffering from long COVID. According to a quick Google search, long COVID is a chronic condition that lasts for at least three months and can affect one or more organ systems, either continuously, in relapses, or progressively. The person in this story has been dealing with it for two years. At one point, his health takes a turn for the worse, but then he has a mysterious encounter that he believes triggers a healing phase. Coupled with bizarre lights in the sky and paranormal encounters in his bedroom, this experience leaves him questioning whether his sudden improvement is just a coincidence—or something more. Story #1: Something was with me in my room last night, i asked it to heal me and it did. An experience by Joel Johnson and Iga Ciesielska, who both reside in the village of Cambuskenneth, within the outskirts of the city of Stirling, Scottland https://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/1cq7uo1/something_was_with_me_in_my_room_last_night_i/ Story #1 Pictures: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1u9LWYD_ppWqsNcqGkhnoLi3wdFjKOic_?usp=sharing Story #2: High school boyfriend from 15 years ago that ended up in a mental hospital, let’s not meet… again. An experience by stayathomeplantfam https://www.reddit.com/r/LetsNotMeet/comments/1d54rqe/high_school_boyfriend_from_15_years_ago_that/ Story #3: My dog alerted me to something at my window An experience by YaBoiHorseJesus https://www.reddit.com/r/LetsNotMeet/comments/159jzsz/my_dog_alerted_me_to_something_at_my_window/ Story #4: my friend and i were driving in a pitch black park and saw a poodle walking on 2 legs and it walked off An experience by foreignforest_ https://www.reddit.com/r/Paranormal/comments/16y6qbq/my_friend_and_i_were_driving_in_a_pitch_black/ Story #5: Toddler seeing my dead mom?
