TWO GIRLS ONE GHOST — ENCOUNTERS x320: TERRIFYING TRUE GHOST STORIES
Sony Music Entertainment | February 26, 2026
Hosts: Corinne Vien & Sabrina Deana-Roga

EPISODE OVERVIEW

This installment of the Encounters series lives up to its “kitchen sink” theme — meaning no topic is off-limits. Instead of a single subject, the hosts curate an unpredictable parade of listener-submitted ghost stories, paranormal events, near-death experiences, and creepy glitches in reality. True to the Two Girls One Ghost style, Sabrina and Corinne deliver a blend of spookiness, empathy, and humor as they unpack supernatural happenings and exclaim over the many ways “the other side” seems to reach out to us.

KEY DISCUSSION POINTS & STORY SUMMARIES

1. Haunted Houses and Doppelgangers (Lauren’s Story)

[04:00–13:18]

• Setting & Backstory: Lauren recounts her experiences as a teen in Spokane, Washington. Coping with school bullying, she often hung out with friends Jack and Josh in Jack’s old (circa 1800s) house — a hotspot for increasingly violent paranormal activity.
• Escalating Hauntings: The house starts with unexplained noises, then escalates to objects flying and a shattered bathroom mirror.
• Basement Incident: One night in the basement, a series of electric glitches with a flip phone and a sudden burst of chilling, female, demonic laughter leaves all three friends terrified. Lauren flees into the snow, leaving her belongings behind.
• Doppelganger Revelation: Months later, Jack’s father sees a girl (identical to Lauren) in the house. This apparition doesn’t answer when spoken to, then vanishes.

“The entity presented as me. My form, my face. Was it a witch? A demon? A doppelganger? What do you think?” – Lauren ([12:10])

• Hosts’ Insight: Corinne and Sabrina revisit the phenomenon of doppelgangers and question whether the house’s haunting climaxed because of Lauren’s presence.

2. Timeline Shifts & Near-Death Experiences (Cecily’s Story)

[16:39–34:45]

• Drowning & Forgotten Skills: As a teen, Cecily nearly drowns jumping off a bridge with friends. She claims lifelong terror of water and no memory of ever swimming. Afterward, her parents show proof of her forgotten prowess as a child swimmer, hinting at “memory glitches” or shifted timelines.
• Out-of-Body Surgery: During surgery, Cecily “floats” above her body, hearing everything happening, and returns to consciousness too quickly — unnerving the medical staff.
• Pandemic NDE (Near-Death Experience): Cecily collapses and blacks out while out shopping; she experiences a classic “tunnel and light” NDE, sees loved ones (including a daughter she hasn’t had), and is told by a woman:

“Not yet, it’s not time for you.” ([28:50])

• Aftereffects: Back in her body, Cecily describes new memory loss and the eerie sense of living in a timeline not her own.
• Hosts’ Reactions:
  Sabrina: “It’s like Cecily’s soul is just, like, not fully correctly attached to her body.” ([26:45])
  Corinne: “I would argue that there might be multiple jumps happening — constantly. Which is very disorienting.” ([31:58])

3. Port City Paranormal & Ouija Board Adventures (Patty’s Story)

[37:44–46:28]

• San Francisco Séance: In an art school apartment, Patty and friends build an indoor tent, switch off all electronics (including breakers), and contact “Kavka” via Ouija — an entity corresponding to the 1850s Gold Rush era. Wind rushes through the tent as the session ends.
• Victoria, BC: Using a makeshift Ouija, they experience shot glasses moving and loud, ominous drumbeats in a haunted rural house.
• Seattle Graveyard: Contacting a spirit with the surname matching a recently deceased friend, Adam, amidst surrounding orbs.
• Host Reflection:
  Corinne: “Patty, I feel like you’re the common denominator here… For things to escalate so quickly.” ([46:08])
  Sabrina: “You might be a medium!” ([46:25])

4. Sleep Talking Possession? (Blake’s “Bloody Mary” Incident)

[46:39–50:08]

• Sleep Incident: Blake, a lifelong sleep talker, shocks her boyfriend (now husband) by whispering in her sleep:

“Bloody Mary full of Grace. Teach me something not to kill.” ([47:36])
She nods to the hallway and says, “over there,” in a singsong voice.

• Aftermath: Her boyfriend, previously a skeptic, insists on an emergency cleansing of the apartment, which had already exhibited poltergeist-type activity.
• Hosts’ Take: Sabrina marvels at the blending of Blake’s peaceful dream state with her physical body delivering frightening, inexplicable messages to her partner.

5. Podcast as a Lifesaver (Lisa’s Story)

[50:23–53:39]

• Medical Emergency: Lisa, in the ER for a medication overdose, is chatting about Two Girls One Ghost with a doctor, which keeps the doctor in the room; at that moment, Lisa crashes and codes. The doctor’s presence, thanks to their podcast conversation, is potentially lifesaving.

“It was a miracle that the doctor was there in the room with me. Because if it had happened when I was alone, who knows what would have happened?” – Lisa ([52:00])

• Blindness & the Paranormal: Lisa, who lost her sight, asks how visually impaired people experience ghosts, prompting the hosts to reflect on how most encounters don’t solely rely on vision.

6. Aftershow: Listeners' Community & Final Thoughts

[56:22–end]

• The hosts invite more “kitchen sink” submissions and discuss the wide array of ways listeners can experience the paranormal — through sight, touch, feeling, or astral encounters.
• Sabrina shares a heartwarming story of her cat, Leia, and they both muse over the purity of animals’ companionship.
• They tease bonus content for Patreon members.

MEMORABLE QUOTES & MOMENTS

• “My third eye flew wide the fuck open when I turned 30.” – Lauren ([04:22])
• “I have a condition called lurking.” – Sabrina ([03:30])
• “Your soul got knocked out of you, literally.” – Sabrina ([30:16])
• “It wasn’t just like his dad glanced back and was like, oh, it’s a girl, so it must be Lauren. It was like it fully looked like her.” – Corinne ([12:54])
• “If you can actually learn to jump to different timelines, that would be sick. Go somewhere that you can swim.” – Corinne ([32:54])
• “There are a lot of accidents and things happening that are causing [timeline jumps], but she’s not unconscious for them.” – Sabrina ([32:29])
• “Patty, I feel like you’re the common denominator here… You might be a medium!” – Sabrina ([46:19])
• “Bloody Mary, full of grace. Teach me something not to kill.” – Blake ([47:36])
