Hey, it's Michelle, and happy April. I figured the only appropriate way to kick off the month was with three calls that will make you question every sound you hear in your house tonight. There is a full video for this episode on both Spotify and YouTube, so you can watch as well as listen.

Three callers. Three true ghost stories from three completely different corners of the world. And every single one of them is real.

Hannah from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, introduces us to Edith. Edith lives in a converted Victorian home that is now a music school, and she has opinions. She turns the dishwasher on and off on command. She flicks the lights when the kids misbehave. She does not tolerate angry energy in her space. And when the school moved to a new building a few blocks away, Edith moved with them. Hannah was staring right at that dishwasher when it turned itself off. So was the whole choir.

Then James from San Francisco calls in from the early nineties with a story about a murder house on High Street and what happened when he tried to sage the basement where the blood had run. The room got colder the moment he lit the sage. Light bulbs popped. Windows slammed. James ran. He did not go back to do laundry there again.

Edwin from Scary FM joins us from Ecuador, where he is staying in a house with a history that nobody in the family likes to talk about. Footsteps on the second floor when no one is up there. A knock at the front door with no one outside. And a dog who is too lazy to investigate but will not stop barking at the stairs. Edwin has been rationalizing these things for a long time. After the night, the footsteps came fast and heavy across the ceiling while he and his wife sat at the kitchen counter, and he stopped trying.

Three true ghost stories. One very eventful April.
