Summary

On this Friday the 13th edition of Inbox of Oddities, Kat and Jethro open the mailbag and let the Freak Fam take the microphone. From Ohio to Australia, Wisconsin to Vermont, listeners share experiences they can’t quite explain—and aren’t sure they want to. A woman who lives alone wakes up to find coins appearing on her nightstand… even after setting up a camera to prove nothing happened. A listener describes hearing her beloved dog—gone just hours before—return one last time, warm and unmistakably real. A cemetery worker receives a phone call from someone insisting they were just called first. And a disconnected phone number delivers a voicemail years later… in a mother’s voice. Other stories drift into stranger territory: a dying grandfather who insists the room is “breathing,” deathbed visions of unseen visitors, the unsettling sense of a space suddenly feeling busy, and the lingering question of whether some voices are meant to be heard—but not answered. There’s also a look at extravagant funerals, eerie coincidences, and the quiet comfort of knowing you’re not alone when you file something under unexplained and keep going. These are the kind of things you think about later, when the house is quiet. Welcome to the Inbox. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
