Radio Rental Storyteller 1 (2:59)
In the afternoons I work on an organic farm and I run a farmer's market for them on Saturdays. So I'd had a great day at the farmer's market, had sold out everything and I really wanted a pair of overalls. So I went over to Goodwill to see if I could pick some up. When I got to Goodwill, I got my cart, I was shopping, everything was fine. When I was over in the housewares aisle, I felt someone watching me. I just had a very strange sensation that someone was staring at me. I turned around, and standing directly behind me was this girl, about 18 to 25. She was very pale. She had long dark hair. She didn't have anything in her hands. No purse, no phone, anything. She was dressed all in black, and she was just standing there looking at me. Her eyes were black. So black and scary when she looked at me. Almost like her pupils were dilated. And she was just staring. It was just a soulless stare right directly at me. She never spoke. She never moved. I've been a nurse for over 20 years. When I looked at her, my first thought was not that she was having a medical emergency. She didn't appear to be on drugs. She didn't appear to be having any kind of medical episode. She did not look alive. My first thought was that there was something wrong, that she did not belong on this plane or on this earth. She just chilled me to the bone. Every muscle and bone in my body was saying to get away from her as quickly as possible. So I started pushing my cart away from her. And not only did I want to get away from her, I wanted to get out of that store. And that is the one thing that really scared me happened. I just turned my head to the left and where she had been in the aisle behind me, suddenly she was in the next aisle over, right beside me. It was like she had teleported over there. There was no way possible she could have moved that fast. It wasn't human. One moment she was behind me, and the next she was beside me and across a different aisle. I may have taken four steps away from her before I turned and looked, and she was right beside me across the other aisle. Absolutely, humanly impossible for her to have moved that fast. I knew that there was something wrong with her. I knew I didn't want to be anywhere near her. I. I was very frightened, and I decided I would just leave. When I was leaving the store, I happened to run into my niece and her family on my way out. As I was walking out the door, they were coming in. I normally would stop. I might have spent some time with them, but I had to go. I didn't want to be in that store with her anymore. We just stopped and said hello. I was surprised to see them because they're not usually in my town. Said hello to them. I hugged the kids, and then I left. I just had to leave. I was trying to forget that that had happened and trying not to think about her. I never turned around to look to see where she was. I didn't want to know where she was going to be next. I was worried that she was the Grim Reaper and that she had come for me. I was worried that maybe she was bringing me a message from beyond that I wouldn't want to hear. I thought that perhaps she was attached to something in the store. I had a lot of different theories, a lot of them. One of which being that it was just my imagination. I got home and I live alone. And I knew if I thought about that all night, I wouldn't sleep all night. So I have a box in my head with a lid. I put it in that box and I shut it. And I try not to think about it for the rest of the night. It was probably about 9 o'. Clock. I had really done a good job of trying not to think about it because it was time to go to bed. I got a text from my niece's husband and it said, really odd question, but did you happen to notice a girl in Goodwill today, probably about 18 to 25, long black hair, dressed all in black looked emojis. I was more afraid than I had been all day long. I had been able to convince myself that that was probably my imagination. But as soon as I got the text from him, I knew that someone else had seen her too. And I knew that someone else knew that there was something wrong with her. It just confirmed all of my fears, all of my suspicions. Instead of texting, I picked up the phone to call Lynn. And that's when I told him, don't talk, don't say anything. I don't want to hear what you have to say. Because I knew he was going to confirm that whatever I saw was really, really bad. I didn't know where she was when I left the store. I refused to look back. I didn't know if this was something that had attached itself to me and had come home with me. I didn't know anything about it. I just knew that it was something very, very bad and that he was about to confirm that for me. We had a conversation about it anyway. He asked me had I seen her, and I told him that I had. He said that he had seen her, that he immediately was frightened that no one else had seen her. His wife thought he was crazy and thought he was making it up. And he was calling me to confirm. And our descriptions were exactly the same. The way she looked, the way her eyes were black, the dreadful feeling she Gave us our stories, matched point by point. I don't think he had any idea that I was going to say yes. I saw her, too. I hung up the phone. I made sure all the doors were locked. I had all the lights on. I lit candles. I said prayers. I was scared. I was scared for the rest of the night. I ended up staying up very, very late that night because I was too scared to go back to sleep. I considered calling the Goodwill and asking if anyone there, any of their employees, had seen her and seen about security footage. But then again, I'm not sure if I would want to see that again. I never made that call. I never wanted to lay eyes on her again. I know that she's still out there. I know that she was real. I still don't know what she wants. And that's something that, if I allowed myself to think about it too much, might keep me up for the rest of my life. I think that some people are more sensitive to things than others, and I think that some people are more open to seeing things than others. I just happen to be able to see her, and I think the same thing about my niece's husband. I think that she was present in the store whether her belongings had been donated and she wanted them back or she was there for somebody else, and I just happened to see her. I think I'm just one of those unlucky ones who gets glimpses of the other side sometimes.
