I'm going to shift. I forgot we were recording, but I do these dances all the time. You do

a little root faction. Hey, it does. It's two girls one go. Two girls one goes.

And we are your ghost to says. That's Corinne. Hello. And I'm Sabrina. Interesting. Now

that we're staring at ourselves. If you're a patron, Patreon donor. If you're a patron

on our Patreon, you will see one or two of these stories in video forms some time soon.

We've decided to start recording ourselves and staring at ourselves. You can see our faces.

Hello. Here we are. Hello. It's weird to do video. I know. It feels uncomfortable.

Because we're so in the groove of like, I mean, I guess we see each other, but it's not

so clear the record. Like, I'm not using my little bubble being so big. It just feels

strange. It feels like someone's watching us even though we do this the same way everything

we know. And people are watching, but not right now. Just that's true. If we're in control

of closing, we're choosing to do this. All right. Well, to get over the weirdness, let's

just get into it. This is our encounters episode. This is the episode where we read this spooky

haunted crazy, tear-joker of a story that you all sent to us in our inbox. And we decided

this week to do a theme again as we did. We're doing haunted dolls and haunted toys and

all the things that freak us out the most. So good. So good. Do you want to go first? Yes.
