In tonight's episode, I'll be talking about an extremely haunted house in South Carolina,

the spirit of beloved pets and dreams that offer unsettling messages.

All this coming up on this edition of Paranormal Mysteries.

Thank you for joining me and welcome. I'm your host, Nick Ryan.

And now, let's begin with our first experience of the night, which comes to us from Amanda,

an Amanda's story is called My Haunted Storybook House. Amanda says,

Hi, thank you for providing a platform for paranormal stories to be heard.

I became a true believer of the paranormal at the budding age of 12,

when I had several encounters in a house I lived in for a year in Powder'sville, South Carolina.

I now know that I'm a clear cognizant empath, and I will eventually share several experiences that I have around that.

But if I want to start at the beginning, I must start with where it all began 30 years ago.

The last story is always the hardest one for me to share because I don't like thinking too much about it,

because it was really scary, and hopefully my writing will do it just as.

Amanda's first story is called Drumroll Please.

I was in eighth grade, and my mom, my sister, and myself had just moved into a new home.

We bought the home from someone that went to church with us, who had built the home for their family years prior.

It was the cutest two-story A-frame house that looked as if it was straight out of a storybook full of fables.

My mom had just started dating my now-step dad, who had a daughter that was three years younger than me.

It was the weekend, and my parents wanted to go on a date, so they left us girls behind to get to know each other a little better.

I can't remember where my older sister was, but most likely with a friend, or playing sports.

Not long after my parents drove off, we were sitting on the landing in the bend of the indoor staircase,

and talking about whatever a 12- and 9-year-old would talk about.
