We're sharing a story with you from the catacombs never released publicly spooked probably presents paint it black.

Now that some say what is this thing you speak of the other side beyond the veil the shadow lands this is stuff in nonsense.

The favorite imagination that's what you got where is the proof. Well a few months back. We got an email from a listener who gave us what for them is the ultimate proof that something something is not.

Here's a little while back I got an email from a listener named Bridget Mojave. She told me that she had a ghost story. Well it wasn't really her ghost story.

It was a story that she had heard all the time growing up because it happened to her dad and her brother Chris.

And before she reached out to our team she wrote to her brother to jog his memory. Bridget sent me a email and it said dad's story and I clicked on it and I had ear buds in and I thought that this was going to be some like some like fun cool story about my dad's life or something.

And I remember just hearing my dad retell this story that happened to us a long time ago. I had realized I didn't told anyone that story and probably over 20 years.

So I sat down with Bridget Chris, her mom Mary and her dad Brian. Now Brian has been painting houses for years and back when the kids still lived at home he landed a good gig with a sweet client on the Ritsey side of town.

I worked for this client a couple times. We painted the exterior of our house the previous year. I met the client son Eddie when we were painting the exterior of his parents house.

You know that we were kind of in the same age bracket and he was just a very outgoing guy and we would be us when he would be home.

Eddie lived in a very affluent neighborhood. Everybody had nice manicured lawns. Everybody kept their houses very tidy. Everybody got their houses painted when the paint started to peel.

The client is so happy with Brian's work. He asks him to paint the inside of his house.

So we go go in and set up everything, put our types down, our paint, our ladders. I was there for five days Monday through Friday. Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday were real good.

Friday was a different story.

Friday it was pretty warm out. It's real muggy and I'm driving up to the house. I punched into the garage code and I walked into the house and I noticed that how cold it was.

Right away I got a chill right up my back. So I went over to the thermostat and the thermostat was off. There was no air conditioning going on.

That day all I wanted to do was get finished and get out of there and start another job Monday.

I went outside, smoked a cigarette, came back in and just totally forgot about it.
