Because she's really good at that.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah.

[B]

When did you introduce that game anyways?

[A]

I think it's just from the singing bee. Should we do a mini round? Yeah, okay, let's do a mini round after this break. Bratman to Earth. Earth to Bratman. Girl, you already know who it is. And we are back. All right, Ms. K and I are going to do a little activity because we're, like, honestly crashing. This is the second episode we're filming today. We just had dinner and I'm honestly ready for bed. But we got to read all these bedtime stories for you guys. But we're gonna play a song association game.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

So should we ask Ozzy. Wait, a word.

[B]

Hold on. Because there's two different types of song association game we like to play.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Is the one with the one word where every song consists of the exact same word.

[A]

Or you stop at a word and.

[B]

Then I have to continue.

[A]

Should we do the continue? Let's do the continue.

[B]

Okay, okay.

[A]

Azzy. Give us a word that is in a lot of songs.

[B]

Heart.

[A]

Heart.

[B]

He has to go with heart.

[A]

Damn. Heart is Crazy.

[B]

Love.

[A]

Oh, do you want to start or should we. Should we do the. Should we do the one. Okay, let's refix.

[B]

Oh, I go with one.

[A]

Yeah, we should do the one where we. We. We think of as many songs with the word love in it.

[B]

Oh, okay.

[A]

I feel like changing it up.

[B]

We're changing it up.

[A]

Okay, we're going to do the song game, and it's love, and we're gonna go back and forth until we run out of songs with love in it. Okay. That's the easy one. Okay, go.

[B]

Okay. I love you, you love me. We only best friends of the family.

[A]

Okay, I'm gonna go with the classic. Long as we got. There's so many songs with love.

[B]

I love. I'm blanking.

[A]

That's crazy.

[B]

Okay, wait, let me think of. Go again then.

[A]

Love me, hate me, Say what you want about me. Okay. All of the boys and all of the girls are thinking Amy. Something like that.

[B]

Okay, wait, wait. I got one. I got one. Which I love is love is my drug.

[A]

Ooh, yeah. You love your love.

[B]

It's my drug.

[A]

Love. L is for the way you look at me O O is for the only one I see V is very, very extraordinary. E is for even more than you can tell me Love.

[B]

It's all okay of you.

[A]

Literally love. I'm. I didn't sing it because I thought you would live it. Think Cleo, girl. Think Cleo.

[B]

Oh, I. I thought he's just saying that.

[A]

No, that's. Never knew what I was missing. Exactly. And do you feel warmed up?

[B]

Yes, I do.

[A]

Okay, shoot. I feel like since we were reading a lot of Filipino superstitions on. I mean, since we were reading a lot of Filipino ghost stories and we were talking about how we always think it's scarier. Yes. I think it's scarier. And it hits home. I feel like we should talk about Filipino superstition. When you think of Filipino superstitions, what are the first ones you think of?

[B]

One thing I hate about superstitions is you can't cut your nails in the night at night.

[A]

And weekends.

[B]

Yes. And weekends also. You can't. You know how? Like, if you have, like, hangers, like.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Put your clothes in, like, on the outside. If you don't have a dryer and you put. Hang your clothes in the outside. You can't hang it or pick it up, like, grab it out of there during nighttime as well.

[A]

Oh, period. I knew the whole bouncing the ball at night. Because the centipedes will fall.

[B]

They'll fall. And Come out because of the.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

What else do you know? We're gonna go through some. I'm gonna Google the gift thing.

[B]

You can't give somebody shoes because they'll.

[A]

Walk away from your life.

[B]

No, it's saying, like, they'll walk all over you.

[A]

Oh, yeah. I've never heard of that.

[B]

My mom.

[A]

I thought of the one where it's like the. The classic one where they walk out of your life. Yeah.

[B]

There's one where don't wash your hair at night because you'll go blind.

[A]

Oh, yeah, I saw that one. Well, okay. Do you remember as a kid when we would lose a teeth, we would have to throw it in the roof?

[B]

Yes. It's never underneath the pillow.

[A]

Yeah. That's why the whole, like, fairy. Like, the fairy, tooth fairy thing has always been so confusing to me. Because we've always, like, throw. Like, throw it up in the roof. Yeah, yeah.

[B]

You know, I did that when I was a kid. Like, my mom would be like, go outside to untoward in the roof. And I'm like, why so? Like, so it will grow because you're giving it back to them.

[A]

Do you know the itchy palm one?

[B]

Like, you have itchy hands.

[A]

Like, when you have itchy palms, that means money's coming your way.

[B]

No, I've never heard that.

[A]

Well, have your palms have itchy. Yes.

[B]

Oh, my God. I'm like.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

No, I've never heard that before. Really? Yeah. Or the whistle. I heard it. Have you ever heard of the whistle where, like, don't whistle, like, out loud.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

At night. Because you'll call spirit. Yeah. You'll call someone else.

[A]

Do you believe that pancit means long life?

[B]

Yes. But why isn't spaghetti? It's my question.

[A]

Well, that's because our family, we like spaghetti more than we like pancit. Honestly.

[B]

No.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

But I'm like, are they the same noodles and everything?

[A]

What else?

[B]

Oh, the whole, like, since it's Halloween, you know, like they said. Do you know what pag pag means?

[A]

Yeah. Like fluffing something out.

[B]

So, like, when you go to a funeral, you're supposed to pag pug first, which means don't go straight home, but go somewhere else before home. Because you never know, a spirit might be following you and you don't want them to follow you.

[A]

Yeah, you gotta bug.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

My Halloween one is the black cat thing with this, like, when a black cat is caught, I feel like that's across a lot of cultures.

[B]

It does. It does.

[A]

Like, because black cat means a lot of things. But in our culture particular, if it's a black cat crossing at night, Gary, you gonna die.

[B]

Yes. Or even the ladder, you can't go underneath the ladder or go walk underneath the ladder. Yeah. Oh, one more thing is like, you know those, you know, like, you have, like, little white stuff on your fingers.

[A]

Oh, yeah, Money.

[B]

Yes. So if you, like, if you see one of those, like, things that, like, drops and, like, it earns over there.

[A]

That means you're very like, Kiefer, I cannot. With the way you explain things. So Ms. Kief, Ms. K. Is talking about when you look at your fingers, right? Yes. Sometimes you have, like, little white, like, specks in there.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

And what she's saying is that it's like a countdown for when your money's coming.

[B]

Yeah. Like a lot.

[A]

So once you cut that little white speck off, you get money. It's hard to explain. I know. Wait, Kiefer, I forgot about our segments.

[B]

Oh, yeah. Well, no.

[A]

So those are some superstitions. And now we're going to move into our segments.

[B]

Okay, so do you want me to go first this time?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Okay. Well, I made you a shake because.

[A]

The shake is looking good.

[B]

It's looking gelatinous, but it's a mango guava with li moi and ice cream and girl, all of that goodness stuff. Oh, yeah. And then I just mix it up together. Cat said you're gonna like it, so she lied to me. You do taste the Lihimoy. I think I put a little too much Lihimoy.

[A]

I'm just trying to make out of it real quick. Hold on, let me.

[B]

I'm like, it's a lot of. It's a lot of flavoring because when I first tasted it first, I was like, oh, what is this?

[A]

And it's that with me. It is one of those that you have to sit with. Yeah, it's good.

[B]

I think it.

[A]

I would give it an 8 out of 10.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I feel like I need to start rating these.

[B]

Yes, you should. I think it's the Lihimoy because I was like when I added the Lihimi.

[A]

Well, I do love the Lijimoi in it. I taste the Lijimoi for sure, but I don't know if it's too much. I think it's perfect.

[B]

Okay. Or it could have been the ice cream girl.

[A]

I don't. Bitch. Is it dairy free?

[B]

I mean, I'll live.

[A]

Yes, I'll live. Do you have tea of the week? The tea of the week, even though these are advanced?

[B]

Well, I just. I literally I only went on my phone once the whole break time. We had like a 10 minute break, you guys, just to eat. But anyways, I opened up my phone and the first thing I see was there was this old lady that landed in Tokyo, Japan and she was up in a place called Tunisa.

[A]

Tunisia.

[B]

No, Tunisa or something. Something Tunisa. But the place that she came from does not exist. So it started like a question like, where is this lady coming from? Because her passport is legit and her passport was full of stamps of other places that does not exist.

[A]

What the fuck?

[B]

Yes. And then she asked the people, like, is this America? And then she goes, oh, I might have been. I might have landed in the wrong place. So everyone's thinking like, she's from another, like dimension. Dimension.

[A]

Oh my God, I have to see this.

[B]

Yes, I'll send it to you once I see it.

[A]

I've seen something similar, I think when we were reading some conspiracy theories where they think that people time, not time travel, but like, because we were talking about second, not second lies. What is it? That second dimension.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

And there was a man, this was like back in the eight, like 70s, I think. And he had came from a place as well. And same thing. He had passport, everything. But when they Googled like it was legit. Yeah, yeah. And when they googled where this place is from or when they. I guess Google wasn't available at the time, but when they looked up where this place was on the map, like it didn't exist.

[B]

Yeah, like, but like at the end, like she just kind of like vanished out of nowhere.

[A]

Same thing with this guy. Yeah. So what if it's his ancestor? What if they both came from the same place and like is pulling a prank.

[B]

I know, I feel like there's like some like.

[A]

Or what if it's the same guy from the 70s and he's back as a trans woman?

[B]

You never know because she is dressed like a fully.

[A]

Like, did it show what she looked like?

[B]

Yes, she looked like a nun.

[A]

O.

[B]

You at the mall, Natalie.

[A]

Guys, we were going to be dressed as Natalie nun.

[B]

And I was going to be Natalie.

[A]

And I was going to be a nun. Sorry, that was like. That was kind of like a lore. Yes.

[B]

But yeah, that was my tea. And it's funny how like you said the same thing like happened to this guy.

[A]

Yeah, I saw something like that.

[B]

I really think there's like little vortex. Vortex that we don't know about and like, you know.

[A]

Yeah, for sure. I don't doubt it. I don't really doubt a lot of.

[B]

Things because there's like a lot of people that goes missing and you never find them.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Where you guys be going?

[A]

Like, even when people say out of pocket, I'm literally like, well, you believe in that?

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Go, go. You. Yes. Do you like?

[B]

Yeah. But how did you came up with that? But anyways, go on.

[A]

What?

[B]

Your turn.

[A]

Oh, yeah. Okay. My journal entry of the day is really short because I had to go somewhere. Girl, I'm so excited. Today I'm going to be shopping with my mom. My mom stays on her granny era with them grandkids. But not today. I'm in my mixed metal, two toned era. I was talking about my jewelry because I just have, like two new bracelets. But also I've been wearing my presidential watch with two tone. And then my necklace is also two toned. And then in here, I was talking about. I'm so. I'm gonna go get us matching Cartier earrings because I wanted a gold one on my second ear.

[B]

See?

[A]

Oh, and here is like silver. Silver.

[B]

Yeah. Two gold.

[A]

Just like a touch of gold. Because I do. I'm not like mad at gold, but I am a silver girly or white gold girly. I also want to get us matching Coach Kiss lock bags. I think they're just so cute.

[B]

They're so cute.

[A]

And hopefully they have the black one left because I saw it last time I was in Alamana and then I stopped writing. That was that.

[B]

Coach has been killing their bags lately.

[A]

Girl. Coach has been eating.

[B]

Girl, that bag. I think you're saving that for later.

[A]

For the bag. Yes. For the product of the week, for sure.

[B]

How was that? How was.

[A]

Oh, my gosh. Girl, it was so much fun shopping with my mom. And she. I think she just needed a break because she's been babysitting, sitting.

[B]

Also. You never do, like, have like a moment with her.

[A]

I barely. Yeah, we don't really, like, go out because my mom hates eating out. Like, she's literally like. I wouldn't say she's the worst at taking out at restaurants, but every time she's eating at restaurants, she's always like. Or like, I can make this better. Or like, she thinks everything stinks.

[B]

No, my mom too.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

That's why I don't like taking them out to anything because it's girl. And it's like they can't hide it with their.

[A]

Yes. That's why, like, people. People were so sweet in the comments because I posted pictures of us today being like, oh, I love how big you're Smiling when your mom's eating. I'm like, I'm literally smiling because I think she actually likes something that's not her food.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

Because she only eats her food.

[B]

And you just got a smile for the both of you.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

Please take it. Because they're, like, the most pickiest people ever. I think it's because.

[A]

And they will let you know. It comes with. I think it comes with knowing how to cook. Yeah. Yeah, for sure.

[B]

And like, getting familiar with only one cuisine, which is, like, Filipino.

[A]

Sorry for interrupting your program. This video is sponsored by Factor. Thank you so much, Factor for sponsoring today's video. Now, you know how fall always sneaks up on you. One minute you're at the beach, the next you're out here pretending to have a routine again. Between work, gym, dogs, chickens, family, and trying to be the main character in my life, I just simply do not have time to cook every day. That's exactly why I've been obsessed with Factor lately. Their meals are chef prepped, dietitian approved and actually taste so good. I just heat it up and boom, Dinner that looks like I actually tried. Factor gives you options. Okay. You can pick from ton of weekly meals, even premium seafood like salmon and shrimp, and it doesn't cost extra. They've also got more GLP1 friendly meals and Mediterranean diet options that are high in protein and good fats, which is great for keeping that balance between wellness era and I still want flavor. Hello. And this part is really what gets me. They added Asian inspired meal. Yes. With flavors from Thailand, China, and more. I had this sesame chicken the other day, and that honestly tasted like takeout, but without the guilt or the dishes. And get this, 97% of Factor customers says it helped them live a healthier life, and I believe it. I actually feel like I have my life together when I eat these. And if you know me, that's saying something. So if you're trying to eat smart without stressing, I use factor and you should too. And I love the fact that they ship to Hawaii now, girl, you already know she comes in clutch. Whenever Kat doesn't cook for me for the week or especially, especially when I'm in LA for the week, she really comes in handy where I really don't have to think. I just pop it in the microwave and I get to work and then I pop my next meal in the microwave and, girl, I just feel like a chef.

[A]

People always ask me why every time I'm out and about in like Ala Moana or in town, why I dress all black or like the way that I dress. I literally wear a hat. I wear like baggy clothes and I try to walk.

[B]

Oh, so you're basically what I call. I call those outfits. Millionaire outfits.

[A]

No, girl, please. It's. I call it my blending.

[B]

No, because even like Adam Sandler goes out in public looking like that and I'm like, okay, so I'm guessing it's like, girl, people that has money because they don't need to flaunt.

[A]

It's not even flaunting. It's really just like I don't want attention.

[B]

Yeah. And I think that's like.

[A]

And like, you know how my mom is with attention. She gets so you guys. Like, my mom gets so anxious with a. Yeah.

[B]

She either loves it or like hates it.

[A]

Yes. Because even when we are at Cartier and they were asking her questions, she was like this.

[B]

Yeah, I think she does get the answer. She just doesn't know how to say in English.

[A]

I think it's like, it's definitely like the anxiety of like having to speak English. But I think my mom is just very Just, like, awkward. And she doesn't like being awkward around people. And she gets, like, super shy. So instead of, like, dressing that I normally do dress. I don't want to just give us more attention that we already have have. So I try to dress down for my mom because she literally gets so anxious.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

With attention, which I love. And it's very, like, humbling. Yeah. But yeah, we got some coach bags. She got some Uniqlo stuff because she wanted to get some, like, easy to wear stuff for the Philippines. We got matching cards. Yes. And I. We finally found my mom a new fragrance. My mom has. Really? Yes. My mom has smelled the same since I was 12. And she has always used that pink bottle of perfume. I don't even know where she gets it, but Audi from the Philippines. Yeah. But she likes lace. I think it's called Lies. By Labo. By the Labo. She liked it. I was like, okay. Period, girl. So that was that. It was fun.

[B]

That's so cute. Like a whole day.

[A]

Yeah. I feel like when you guys are in shopping spree. Take your mom on a shopping spree or just take your out. Take your mom out. Mother daughter day. When was the last time you spray? Spent time with Auntie.

[B]

I spent time with her. Oh. She took me to Don Quixote the other day. I was with her, and we wash our cars together, period.

[A]

Oh, at the little car wash. No, we.

[B]

I went home. I was like. Because I went to Don Quixote and got some car wash stuff because I've been, like, needing some cars.

[A]

Oh, you guys washed it in the house?

[B]

And I was like, mom, I'm just gonna wash my car at your house. And she was like, well, can you wash my car, too? Then I was like, yeah, if there's still light. Yeah. And like, it turns out I was, like, doing it slow, so she started doing hers, and we kind of just did our own little thing.

[A]

A little car wash and chill. Yes.

[B]

It was so cute.

[A]

I was like, the fact that our moms are probably, like, watching this, Right. My mom watches the podcast.

[B]

I know. Oh, wait. Hi, Mom. Before she gets married.

[A]

Oh, you should do advanced. Happy birthday before she.

[B]

Happy.

[A]

Oh.

[B]

Merry Christmas. Happy Thanksgiving. Happy Halloween. Happy New Year. To my mom, girl.

[A]

She. My mom, too. She'd be getting upset. We don't say happy birthday, girl.

[B]

They. I think it's because people from the Philippines watches us.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

And they, like, kind of like they, like, talk to people. To them about it.

[A]

Yeah, I think so. Hi, Philippines.

[B]

They need to have, like, a little proof yeah, you know.

[A]

Okay, are we ready to read this story?

[B]

Yes.

[A]

All right. And the lighting demons, and by that I mean turns green. Today we're going to be reading live as they come in. Because before we shot this, I asked you guys to send in fresh, new spooky UKI stories. And literally, I don't know what happened, but the past couple episodes I have asked you guys to send these in and like five to ten people would send. But the day where I'm like, you guys, I really need spooky UKI stories. Girl, they're coming in hot.

[B]

Girl. This came in at 7:02. It's 7:30.

[A]

They're coming in hot. No, this one came at 7:20.

[B]

Oh, period.

[A]

Okay, so these are live or as live as it can get. Hello, baddest radio. My name is V. Let's just keep this anonymous. And tonight I want to share my spooky, spooky stories.

[B]

Sorry, I literally read that first sentence when you were reading it, and I was like started laughing after that. Okay, go.

[A]

Okay, bitch, stop fucking reading ahead.

[B]

I'm not. Okay, go.

[A]

And tonight I want to share my spooky UKI story. It's not your usual ghost story, but something even stranger. Danger Y An encounter with a doppelganger. Ooh, me when I met Zendaya. Even though I never met Zendaya, that.

[B]

Means one of you guys are gonna die soon.

[A]

Now, I don't know if you believe in those things. Yes, we do. Honestly, me neither before. But this experience was so real, so vivid, that it's been engraved in my memory ever since. I'm now in my late 30s, but this happened when I was still in College, around 18 years old. So here it goes. One early morning around 7am, I had to go to my father's office to get my allowance. I took the jeepney ride about 20 minutes from our house to the town proper. My dad's office was right beside our town's main church. After getting my money before heading to school, I waited by the national road in front of the church for a jeep going to Cibao Cubao. Sorry, Cubao. I thought it said Cebu. While I was waiting, an ambulance passed right in front of me. The windows were down and I saw my uncle driving it. At first I was confused. I knew his job was a driver, but I didn't know he also drove the ambulance. He didn't see me. Maybe because it was an emergency. I just thought, ah, okay. Siguro bagong work nya. Maybe it's his new job. And I shrugged it off like it was a normal thing. I waited for a jeep, got on and went on my day. Later that evening, around 5 to 6pm, after a long day at school, I was walking home when I ran into my other uncle. We met right in the middle of the road and he asked, oh, kamustang school. How's school? Oh my gosh. Hold on, let me read this. Oh, kamusta ang school napala. Oh my God. Hold on guys. I don't fucking speak this language. Oh, kamusta ang school napala nabilita and mung nangayari kai Tito pol mo translation. How's school? By the way, did you hear what happened to your Tito Pol?

[B]

I love how Paul has a translation too.

[A]

I had no idea what he was talking about. Without even asking what happened, I immediately said. She said, why? What happened to him? I saw him earlier before I went to go to school and he was driving the ambulance. My other Tito froze. Then he said, no, that's impossible. This morning your Tito was gone. Gone, dead. When I heard that, I couldn't move. I was in shock. Both of us just stood there, completely creeped out. Later that night I found out the truth. My Titipal had already passed away that same day. And that time I saw him driving that ambulance. That was the exact time. He was already in the hospital fighting for his life. It couldn't have been him driving an ambulance wasn't even his job. So who or what did I just see in the morning? That night we told everyone the story. And everyone was just as shocked. Some said maybe it was his premonition, a sign, or his spirit trying to say goodbye. Yeah, whatever it was, I'll never forget it. That moment, that image still gives me chills every time I remember it. And that baddest radio is my spooky UKI doppelganger story. Thank you so much. Wow.

[B]

I think it is a spirit trying to say goodbye to you. Especially if you were close to that person.

[A]

Yeah. But it could also be someone that looks awfully a lot like your uncle. And I'm so sorry that that happened to your uncle. Hopefully though, like, I wonder if. If you felt better like knowing that maybe it was him trying to say goodbye to you. Let us know, okay?

[B]

Scary Story. The title is Scary Story. Hi Bretman. Saw your post about needing Scarrett's story, so here's mine. When I was grade four, we live in a haunted boarding house in Jensen. Jensen is in the Philippines, in Visayas or Mindanao, I think. One night while we were sleeping. I heard a voice calling for help. It was my brother's voice. He was asthmatic too long. So I thought maybe he went outside to pee and got caught up with asthma. But it was dark and I'm scared. So I stayed in the room hoping my parents would help him out. I can still hear him outside saying atitabang meaning sister. Help. Tabang.

[A]

They might be Bisayan.

[B]

Bisayan. Probably. Everyone was asleep, so I decided to go out and help him. While I was searching in the dark for my blanket, I suddenly touched my brother's face. I soon realized when we were sleeping in the same bed and he said ouch. But the voice outside my room is still calling help.

[A]

Help.

[B]

With a thin voice out of breath. I was scared. I reached for my brother and hold him. He was asleep and the voice kept calling outside. It sounds like someone having an asthma attack. My heart is pounding. I cover my ears and as I turned my head in the right side of the room where the voice is coming from, I saw the devil laughing. I passed out.

[A]

That would scare the shadow. That was.

[B]

I would have scream.

[A]

Oh, that scares me. Like I'm literally like the way I live alone. Kiefer, you should sleep over tonight.

[B]

The way he. Oh my God.

[A]

Can you sleep over tonight? Please? Please.

[B]

I totally can actually. Okay, your turn.

[A]

Oh, hold on. This one has a video.

[B]

I'm kidding.

[A]

I'm getting spooked. Hold on.

[B]

I won't.

[A]

Okay, okay, okay. This is titled the Song that Came Back.

[B]

Was that the song?

[A]

No. Hi. This is a real story from when we went camping about 17 years ago. Still fresh and creepy as I write this location. Perlis, Malaysia. Ooh. At first Malaysia. School story.

[B]

I know, so cute.

[A]

We were each assigned to sleep in small wooden huts. The campsite is now full with wild bushes. Now it started as the happiest day of the camp. The old wooden hall echoed with laughter and clapping. All of us stood in a circle, dancing and shouting the lyrics of our camp song at the top of our lungs. While we were having fun, one of the groupmates joked that the place looked haunted. And everyone laughed. By midnight, the rain had stopped. The forest gave off that restless rustling sound with every push of wind. The hut we stayed in was small, raised off the ground. The kind of floorboards that groans when you walk. There were four of us laying side by side. It was around 2am Some were half sleep, still mumbling stories, when suddenly a faint hum, distant. It sounded familiar that we looked at each other, not saying a word. Lord. It was the same song. We sang earlier in the hall. We froze. The song was coming from the hall itself. Our leader said she'd peeked through the window. But the hall stood in complete darkness. No light, no movement, nothing. Yet the song went on, drifting through the mist like a crowd of people singing through rotten wood. My friend sat up and whispered, that's our song, right? Nobody dared to answer. The song grew louder and louder until it sounded like it was coming from our living room. And suddenly. Knock, knock, knock three.

[B]

Oh, wait.

[A]

Maybe it's like.

[B]

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock.

[A]

Three slow knocks. The singing stopped. Silence. Only the soft dripping of the rain from the roof. Then came another knock, louder, from the main door. My heart thudded so hard that it might burst. I leaned towards the window and peeked through the thin slit between the planks. And I saw her. Imagine it's a singer.

[B]

Her. I was like, waiting for the next part.

[A]

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry. And then I saw her.

[B]

And then she sings that song.

[A]

What's. What's a her song? Pull me closer.

[B]

No, she has that one song with Givon. Or is it Franklin?

[A]

I literally know a lot of her songs, and I just can't think of it right now.

[B]

Anyways, losing her, I think.

[A]

A woman. I saw her. And then I saw her. A woman, drenched, standing on our stairs. No face. Her hair clung to her skin. Wet, stringy water dripping from her clothes. I almost peed myself. When I blinked, she was gone. But the footsteps stayed. A few of us cried. I just prayed all night. Shaking, whispering, half in fear, half in disbelief. By morning, we didn't talk about it. Everyone was quiet. But I noticed footprints had dried into the woods. When I told our teachers, they listened silently, exchanged glances. And one of them finally said, it's okay. Don't be scared. That thing's been here a long time. This is her place. We just show her respect. She said, it's okay. I'm okay. And I'm in the first place that.

[B]

Sounds like a rape.

[A]

McCrae. It's okay. I'm okay.

[B]

Is it. Is that what you're.

[A]

Yeah. Later, I heard some of the neighbors huts were disturbed too. But thankfully no one got followed home. Oh, girl, it every that. The way you describe the lady reminds me of how I saw the lady from across over there. I won't scare Ozzy because Ozzy has to drive home. But no, the lady. Oh.

[B]

She said, hi, BR and Ms. K. Let me start by saying, up until this memory of mine still remains a question if it really happened or not.

[A]

Capre is a.

[B]

A giant man Living on a tree. From my memory, I was five or six. Me and my mom were having siesta, Siesta time at my nanas. What does that mean? Yes, just like chilling at my grandma's house. And then suddenly I woke up so thirsty and asked my mom for water. She then told us. She. She then told me, ask your grandma, because I'm too sleepy to stand and get you one. So I asked my nanai, no, you get one. It's like as. So I asked my nana, which she said, your grandpa is already in the kitchen. Just go there and ask him. I had no choice but to get it myself and ask my grandpa. To my surprise, there was a tall creature walking on dishes, washing the dishes in the kitchen. Whom? I thought it was my grandpa. I don't know if I was fully awake this time, but I asked that creature if I can get water. He handed me a glass. A glass full of blood. Up until now, this memory still haunts me and still gives me goosebumps. But that wasn't the end. Fast forward to 2025.

[A]

2015.

[B]

I know I'm making money. My aunt started having, I'd say out of this world experience things that our family thought can only be seen in horror movies. We asked for medical and spiritual help for her, and this is where we found out that she has a bipolar disorder.

[A]

Oh, my gosh.

[B]

As for the fate healer, she said that there was a thick balang who grew up in admiration to her. That's always up in her room for context. My aunt's room is in the second floor, and when you open the window, you'll be faced by the roof, I hope.

[A]

Makes sense.

[B]

Okay, whatever. This faith healer started giving us hula. Like, what is hula?

[A]

Hula.

[B]

Guess, guess, guessing. And she started predicting on what's going to happen with our family in the future, which gave us all fears and anxiety. We don't know this lady. She was just referred to us. But it felt like she knew our family since before. We didn't tell her anything personally, but out of the all things that she said, this is what surprised me the most. There are two capres guarding the house. Both of them are sad because somebody's gonna be gone. The moment she said that, the memory I had made sense. The tall creature that I saw when I was a kid could be true. Later that year, my nanai passed away.

[A]

Oh, my gosh.

[B]

That's why, growing up, I always see 2015 as the worst year of my life. Okay, the end of my quento. Brett, please show Some pics of Cap. Okay.

[A]

Period. Yeah. Thank you so much.

[B]

I know. I, I, I think those creatures are, like, lovely creatures. I never really heard anything bad about them.

[A]

I feel like giants aren't scary.

[B]

Yeah. Gentle, but giants and gentle. I think.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

They say gentle giant, gentle giant.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I heard coppers are usually the ones that's like, if you see, like, a banyan. Banyan tree or like, the rooted, like, extremely rooted trees. If you look up in the tree, there should be a man sitting there guarding the tree with a cigar.

[A]

Yeah. Yeah.

[B]

Like the BFGs.

[A]

Okay, ready? Damn.

[B]

People.

[A]

People be sending these in.

[B]

I know.

[A]

Thank you guys so much. I'm having a hard time, like, even keeping up. Okay. Oh, let's do this. ER Nurse 1. Or do you want to read this one?

[B]

Oh, you can read it.

[A]

Okay. This is from Leonie Marie. Hope you feature this. I'm an ER nurse.

[B]

ER is scary.

[A]

No, for sure. I'm an ER nurse, and I took care of my Filipino. Of this Filipino old man when I was working in the Philippines more than a decade ago. I finished everything I had to do with Tatay in the er, so it was time for me to take him to his room. He was a gurney. He was on a gurney being pushed by our tech. I opened the elevator and went in first, and no one was there. While Tatay was being wheeled in. He told me to move because I'm squish the child. Again, no one was there in the elevator but me. He said, tabikanga konti ang bata. That means, can you move aside? There's a child. I'm like, what child? Where's the kid? He said, and she's. That basically means you squeezed him on the side of you. What the. The patient wasn't delirious on confused. So I believe, I believe both.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

Yes.

[B]

I believe that there was a kid in the elevator, especially in an er. Yeah.

[A]

I remember. I remember. I don't know if I shared this story before, but I remembered as a child, I had gone to this funeral, and in the Philippines, a lot of the funerals are, like, open caskets, and a lot of viewings is at night. Like, people will come and play at night or like, their. What is the game you like to play? Yeah.

[B]

Oh, and then can we Can. Can I say something about, like, funerals in the Philippines? It's not like here in America where, like, the body is somewhere else. The body is literally at your house. Open casket and literally there. For a whole month.

[A]

Yeah, for a whole month. Yeah. And sometimes they don't do. They don't remove, like, intestines or organs, so it literally decays there. Sometimes it will stink. But as I was saying, I was in this funeral. I think I might have been, like, 7 or 8, and I was with my mom, so I was for sure seven or eight. That's when she had me. And we had gone to this funeral, and I remember they were playing mahjong, and I was standing on this rock, and I wasn't the only kid there. It was, like, a bunch of, like, other kids. And I was on this rock, and I. I think I was playing with three other kids, like, two girls and another boy. And all of a sudden, something, like, pushed me off the rock. And I remembered one of the kids being, like, like, yelling at something. Yeah. Like, one of the girls was like, why did you push him? Why? And then. And I'm literally. And then all the other kids, the three of us, were like, who is she talking to? Like. Or. I didn't even know who she was talking to. I just started getting mad because I'm like, who pushed me? Yeah, but she was, like, yelling and pointing at, like, behind the rock. Behind the rock. But nobody knew what it was. I didn't know what it was. So we told the adults, or I think one of the adults saw it happen and was just telling all the other adults, like, oh, something. Like, yeah, Like, I think they. I think the guy that died was the one that. They think that he was the one that pushed me off the rock. Why? I don't know.

[B]

They.

[A]

I mean, I was a kid. I don't even remember, like.

[B]

No.

[A]

Yeah, but I remember playing with those kids being pushed, and then one of the girls, like, yelling at something behind me. I, I, I didn't see that.

[B]

I believe that kids can see ghosts.

[A]

Oh, did you watch. I kind of want to watch this new scary movie, Kiefer. It's. I think it's called Good Boy.

[B]

Oh, I'm okay. I heard it's a really good. Is it. It's a good movie, I heard, but I don't know.

[A]

Well, it's supposed to be apparently, like.

[B]

Like, through your dog's eye.

[A]

Through the dog's eye. No, Dogs see things.

[B]

I don't want to see that. Especially because you have five dogs, six dogs.

[A]

Dogs. I don't have Barkers, though, so thankfully, I'm like, I've never had.

[B]

But when they do bark, so it's gonna. You're gonna start wondering if they're like.

[A]

I'm like, they're barking Caillou. Who that? Yeah, because Caillou, if anyone would bark, it's Caillou girl. Torah, I feel like, would actually lead a murderer into my room.

[B]

Yeah, you'd be like, come over here.

[A]

Like, Torah would be like, let me show you where he's. Yeah, like, I'm pretty sure Torah would be like.

[B]

Or la.

[A]

Yeah, LA would be like, give me a treat and I will show you where this bitch is hiding.

[B]

No, I would not. See, that's why I don't want to do it. Because, like, I like dogs and I don't want. I'm just gonna be like, yeah. What did you see? Yeah. Oh, I like this one. I like it when they typed it, like a little.

[A]

Like, it looks like a story.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

Like a script.

[B]

Yeah. The Haunted Karak Highway. Hey, Brit. I'm Shamita and I've been a huge fan since I was. Since I was 12 and I'm now 25. Oh my God.

[A]

Hello.

[B]

I have a story for you and Miss Kate which thinks it's pookieuki and scary. Hope you guys like it. So there's.

[A]

I'm gonna close my eyes, so if.

[B]

You let me read it. Good then. So there's this highway in Malaysia called the Karak Highway. It's this long winding road through the mountains connecting Kuala Lumpur to a hill resort called Genting Highlands. Now, if you drive at night, it's pitch black, fog everywhere, no lights, just you, your headlights and whatever else is out there. They say it's one of the most haunted roads in the country. Years ago, there was this horrible car crash. When rescuers came, the car was still running, the door was open, but the driver was gone. The only thing they found was a tiny, barefoot, child sized footprint leading into the forest. Since then, people claim to see a little boy standing by the roadside, crying, holding something in his hand, whispering, mama, where are you? And if you stop to help him, some say you look in your rearview mirror and. And he'll be sitting in the back of your seat.

[A]

That's so Ballet drive.

[B]

Yes, but that's not even the scariest part. There's another legend too. The phantom yellow Volkswagen Beetle. Driver says this old yellow car appears out of nowhere, zooming past them. They're overtake it, but a few minutes later, it's back in front of them again. Same car, same plate, over and over. One night, a group of friends saw it. They followed it for miles until it suddenly pulled over. They stopped to just check it out, but when they look inside, no one, no driver, no sound. Just A smell of burnt rubber and something metallic like blood. The next day, police said a yellow beetle had been found crashed on the same bend. But here's the twist. The car had been abandoned for years. I personally have never been on that highway before. Never gonna know. But many people have told me their experiences and on it, and it's always scary. If you like horror movies, there's actual base on this true Malaysian legend. It's called Karak 2011. You should watch it, just not alone. Oh, that's a good one.

[A]

Wait. That gave me, like, shivers. Yes.

[B]

It reminded me of that one story from Hawaii. You know, the Pali highway, the party old highway.

[A]

I feel like so much stories of that similar one where you don't pull.

[B]

Over and pick them up and then the next thing you know. There. Yeah, because I think. I think the story that I'm talking.

[A]

About is like, I wonder if it originated in this. I wonder where that. Where that story because it's such a common.

[B]

It is a ghost, like, just popping out of your. The back of your car.

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

S Road. Is it that the old plantation? I think that road is. I always do at night. It smells like some paguita.

[A]

Oh, my God.

[B]

Don't tell me that.

[A]

Okay, I'm gonna refresh. And whoever is on top will be the last. Read by Kiki Miki. You should close your eyes while I read it.

[B]

Okay.

[A]

You guys, I don't know what the fuck is in the air with these ones y' all be sending, but I did not ask for no pictures or photo. Video proof, bitch.

[B]

Why, girl?

[A]

Like, they be sending these? Like, I can't. I will not be reading those.

[B]

I'm too scared with the visuals.

[A]

I'm like. I did not ask for all the visuals. Okay. Oh, this one's written like that. Okay, okay, okay. The shadows beneath the core.

[B]

I'm gonna close my eyes.

[A]

Yeah. Oh, your eyes. Close it. I am close it.

[B]

It is closed.

[A]

It's not closed. Keep.

[B]

Are you talking about the couch?

[A]

Yes. Cover it.

[B]

Hey, there.

[A]

There's.

[B]

It's so funny because it's right where my eyes are.

[A]

Oh. Period. Okay. Hi, Bretman. I've experienced a few creepy things, but this story still gives me the goosebumps. It happened years ago in my hometown in Cebu in the Philippines. And back then, I was in high school, young, carefree, and proud to be a part of our school's volleyball team. Every day after our classes, our team would train from 5pm until 9pm that court stood in the middle of several old school buildings. A concrete Square, surrounded by dim hallways and classrooms whose windows always looked darker than they should. That night, training went as usual. The air was heavy with humidity and exhaustion, the faint buzz of fluorescent lights echoing above us. Around 8pm we gathered in a huddle of short for a short break, sitting cross legged on the court, laughing quietly, scrolling through our phones. Then, out of nowhere, one of my teammates, usually loud and cheerful, spoke up. We should go home early tonight, she said softly. We turned to her, surprised. Why? Someone asked, chuckling. It's too early. But she wasn't laughing. Her face was pale. Her hands were trembling slightly. I. I saw something, she whispered inside one of the classroom upstairs. It was Mom. Liza. We looked at each other. That didn't make sense. She's not here anymore, I said. She transferred to another school last year. My friend's lips quivered. Exactly. A chill ran through me then, the kind that crawls up your spine and settles in through your throat. We decided to wrap training early, though no one dared to admit we were scared. Before leaving, someone had to turn off the lights, and the switches were on the second floor. No one volunteered. At first, the silence stretched uncomfortably. Then one of my teammates, known for being brave, sighed and said, ugh, I'll do it. We watched her climb the stairs, her shadows fading as she reached the dark hallway above. For a minute, nothing happened. Then she came running down. Not just running, sprinting, tears streaming down her face. There was something there. She cried. It's tall. Really tall. All black. And its eyes. God, its eyes were red. The court fell silent. None of us moved, but there was still a set of switches to turn off on the opposite side of the building. Three of my teammates decided to go to another, linking arms for courage. They disappeared into the darkness. Moments later, we heard their hurried footsteps. When they returned, they were shaking. One of them managed to to speak through the sobs. When we were walking down the stairs, she said, we saw our shadows. But there were four. One more than us, and the fourth shadow had its arm around mine.

[B]

Dang. That is a long story.

[A]

Yes. Almost done. Almost done. That's when the panic broke. Some of us cried. Others trembled, refusing to look anywhere but the ground. We could feel the weight of something unseen watching us. Only a few faint yellow lights remained on, casting long, distorted shadows on the halls. We gathered in the middle of the court and began to pray. We also prayed after training, but this time our voices shook. Halfway through the prayer, we heard a thud. Then another. From the corner of my eye, I saw movement above a dark figure, blacker than the Night itself. I leaped from the roof of the two story building beside us. Leaped from the roof? No, she didn't leap. Leaped from the roof on the two story building besides us. It landed on the roof of the single story classroom, then onto the row of potted plants by the court. The heavy crash of breaking pots echoed through the air. We weren't imagining it. We could see the shattered plants, soil spilling across the pavement. We screamed. I shadowed the loudest, but one of my teammates scolded me, hissing, stop yelling, you'll track them. We ran as fast as we could towards the gate, our footsteps thundering against the cement. The second we stepped outside the school, it felt like a spell had been broken. The night air felt lighter. The silence wasn't heavy anymore. We didn't even look back. When I got home, I could still feel something cold clinging into my skin, like a touch that wouldn't fade. I went straight to bed, praying until I fell asleep. The next morning, when I woke up, my upper body ached. I stood in front of the mirror and froze. Seven large bruises, dark, circular and uneven, covered my shoulders and arms. In our town, people say that when you wake up with unexplained bruises, it means something sniffed or licked you at night. And then I remembered a school was built on top of what used to be a cemetery back in the 1950s. Maybe that's why the shadows never really left.

[B]

Oh my gosh.

[A]

Isn't it more scary when you're imagining it? Yeah, that was that.

[B]

I would leave that place.

[A]

I would leave that fucking place.

[B]

Knowing a place, if you know a place like a hotel or like a house, like an Airbnb was built on a cemetery. Yes.

[A]

I feel like that should be illegal. Honestly, I think it is, like, disrespectful. Like, how you gonna build a whole fucking.

[B]

Yes. Did you even take out all the bones out of there?

[A]

I want to know who was there. Like, you know what?

[B]

A court right here, this could be a court.

[A]

Who was in the cemetery being like, this is a court.

[B]

It's like that one, you know that one hospital that was in Kapolei that was like, haunted before.

[A]

Yes. And now it's houses.

[B]

Yes. It's like, now it's full on, like, complex.

[A]

You would never. I could never. Even if it's the cheapest, I personally, like, maybe. This is the open question that I want to ask you guys. Would you move into a house knowing someone had died there? I mean, I'm asking you.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

You would.

[B]

Yes, But I would have to do, like, blessings first.

[A]

I mean. Yeah.

[B]

Yeah.

[A]

I can't really say much because I literally, technically moved into a room I shared this last. Yeah. That's why my uncle passed. And he was fine. I was fine. Ozzy, would you ever move into a house where, you know, somebody died prior?

[B]

Never. Because, like, I feel like. Because where my mom lives now, she's. She does patient. And then that patient died, you know?

[A]

Yeah.

[B]

I'm like, okay.

[A]

I still would. I. I mean, no, I think in.

[B]

Circumstances, if I knew the person.

[A]

Yes, I can. But if I didn't know the person or their backstory, like, I personally could not.

[B]

Like Uncle Henry's. I have an Uncle Henry that we used to live with. And, like, she. He allowed us to go live at his house because. Because he was by himself over there. And Brett actually has, like, a.

[A]

Seen her.

[B]

Yeah, she's seen this lady. She passed away in that house. And we lived in that house. But Brett seen her actually in, like, through a mirror when they were helping us move in.

[A]

Move in.

[B]

And we were kids, so that's why we're, like, big believers of, like, kids can see ghosts.

[A]

Yeah. And I would. I always say that I used to see them more or experience. Had more experience seeing ghosts when I was a child. Now that I'm an adult, I'm like. Yeah, but you were saying something.

[B]

No. Yeah. So basically, that's, like, one of, like, the places that I've stayed at. And, like, someone died over there. But in that case, like, we knew the person.

[A]

Yeah. And she was a nice lady.

[B]

Yes.

[A]

And she was very smiley when I did see her. Yeah. Yeah. Should we do product of the day? We should. Period. Oh, my gosh. That was, like, the last story of.
