I'm going host, Nick Ryan.

Tonight's first encounter comes to us from Richard,

and Richard's experience is called

True Paranormal Activity Story

with videos. Richard's experience contains details involving self-harm

and other aspects that are unsuitable for younger listeners and discretion is

advised.

Richard says,

Greetings, I have experienced years of paranormal activity that only ended after three

exorcisms of my home. I'm not sure how much detail you're looking for in the initial email, but in 2017 I was a foster parent.

My very first placement was a 13 year old girl, who I will call Tina.

Tina claimed that when she was six years old, she thought that her father was dead,

even though he wasn't, and she would contact what she referred to as the spirit realm and ask if anyone was there in the hopes of finding her father.

Night after night, she would ask if anyone was there, and then one day a voice told her that it was here.

The voice told her that its name was Malabel, and that it would always protect her.

Tina claimed that from that day forward, whenever she looked into a mirror, she would

see a demonic-looking shadow woman out of the corner of her eye.

This shadow woman had sharp teeth and black hollow eyes.

She claimed that if she stared into the mirror for too long,

Malabel would take control of her and make her do things.

None of this was told to any of us of course. While she was in my home,

Tina displayed something akin to disassociative identity disorder in which she had different handwriting, different manner of speech, or even a slightly different voice, as well as what I assumed was schizophrenia.
