Summary

On this episode, we dig into the quiet terror and deep emotion behind one young girl’s encounters with the spirit of her beloved grandmother. What begins as a traditional wake for a woman who helped raise her soon turns into something far more mysterious—something that unfolds in the silence of 3 AM, when grief and love collide in the shadows. Jenny, just 17 and grieving, finds herself visited not once—but twice—by a presence she knows intimately. But what does it mean when the dead return not to scare, but to soothe? Is this the power of the human mind trying to cope with loss, or something more? Tonight, we explore a spirit’s final goodbye that still lingers years later
