Get ready for a spine-tingling journey into the unknown on ‘Paranormal Nightshift,’ the podcast where we delve into eerie encounters and listeners’ firsthand tales of the supernatural. In this episode, we explore an unexplained and unsettling account shared by Bobby, a seasoned long-haul truck driver.
As Bobby cruises through the quiet Arizona night, his routine drive takes a surreal twist when he encounters a roadblock manned by strangely lit figures. Despite his inclination to avoid backroads, circumstances push him onto an unfamiliar path. What follows is a series of baffling events: an inexplicable and overwhelming sleepiness that defies coffee’s effects, accompanied by an intense physical and mental distress.
Guided by a distant truck stop sign, Bobby is overcome by his ailments, leading him to an unsettling sleep. What follows is a feverish, nightmarish sequence where reality blends with the surreal. Bobby recounts being subjected to otherworldly examinations and manipulations, surrounded by a blinding, clinical environment. However, every awakening finds him still at the truck stop.
As morning breaks, Bobby awakens to a changed reality. He has been transported, impossibly, from Arizona to Florida, hours away from his last location. His rig is meticulously arranged, filled to the brim, even his phone battery and supplies are fully replenished. A perplexing call to his boss only deepens the mystery, as official records contradict his experience.
Bobby is left with more questions than answers: Was this a result of an alien encounter, a time loop, or a strange portal? Was the roadblock a diversion set up by extraterrestrial forces? The lines between reality and the paranormal blur in this captivating narrative. Though we may never know for certain, Bobby’s account is a reminder that the night holds secrets beyond our understanding.

00:00:02,080 –> 00:00:05,320
Welcome to Paranormal night
Shift your home for all things
2
00:00:05,320 –> 00:00:08,320
that go bump in the night and
your fan stories told here.
3
00:00:08,920 –> 00:00:11,760
We live in a fun time now where
the government actually does
4
00:00:11,760 –> 00:00:15,440
want to tell you that aliens are
real and maybe it explains some
5
00:00:15,440 –> 00:00:19,000
of the stories that I’ve gotten
sent to me, Bobby writes in I’m
6
00:00:19,000 –> 00:00:21,720
a long haul truck driver, have
been my entire life.
7
00:00:22,360 –> 00:00:25,600
I drive coast to coast most of
the time, listening to Coast to
8
00:00:25,600 –> 00:00:28,560
Coast.
But this story I have no
9
00:00:28,560 –> 00:00:31,880
explanation for.
I was driving through Arizona.
10
00:00:31,920 –> 00:00:35,760
It was about 2:00 in the morning
and I came up across, I guess,
11
00:00:35,760 –> 00:00:38,800
some road work.
I mean, I hadn’t seen any
12
00:00:38,800 –> 00:00:41,040
highway work.
I was the only truck on the road
13
00:00:41,040 –> 00:00:45,320
and I saw lights.
These guys were standing around,
14
00:00:45,600 –> 00:00:48,480
lights and flares going, hey,
this road’s closed.
15
00:00:48,480 –> 00:00:51,880
You can’t go this way.
I don’t particularly like going
16
00:00:51,880 –> 00:00:53,880
back roads.
I try to stay on the highways,
17
00:00:53,880 –> 00:00:56,030
but it looked like it was going
to reroute me.
18
00:00:56,030 –> 00:00:59,030
About an hour to go on the back
Rd. so that I could get back
19
00:00:59,030 –> 00:01:01,910
onto the highway and do what it
was I needed to do.
20
00:01:02,270 –> 00:01:03,950
And that’s when it all started
getting weird.
21
00:01:03,950 –> 00:01:08,350
I’ve never felt bad driving.
I like to drive at night, but I
22
00:01:08,350 –> 00:01:12,070
started getting ridiculously
sleepy, so much so that I
23
00:01:12,070 –> 00:01:15,470
couldn’t keep my eyes open.
I would drink some more coffee
24
00:01:15,470 –> 00:01:19,110
or or something like that, and
it just nothing I was doing was
25
00:01:19,110 –> 00:01:22,670
making me feel any better.
I felt sickly tired.
26
00:01:22,750 –> 00:01:26,080
Like exhausted.
I saw the truck stop sign about
27
00:01:26,080 –> 00:01:29,640
two miles down the road and it
just didn’t feel right to me,
28
00:01:29,840 –> 00:01:32,120
like, why are we in the middle
of nowhere?
29
00:01:32,400 –> 00:01:35,120
But there’s a truck stop.
But I was exhausted.
30
00:01:35,120 –> 00:01:39,000
I felt so bad.
I was feeling physically ill, My
31
00:01:39,000 –> 00:01:42,840
stomach was cramping, my hands
were cramping, Everything felt
32
00:01:42,880 –> 00:01:44,960
bad.
And it all happened so
33
00:01:45,360 –> 00:01:47,480
instantly.
I didn’t feel bad a couple
34
00:01:47,480 –> 00:01:51,120
minutes before that, but right
after I talked to those guys, I
35
00:01:51,120 –> 00:01:55,500
started feeling really sick.
I pull over to the truck stop
36
00:01:55,500 –> 00:01:59,220
and I and I start throwing up.
I start feeling even worse than
37
00:01:59,220 –> 00:02:02,580
I did before, and then I just
fall asleep.
38
00:02:03,060 –> 00:02:08,020
I I go into the back cab and I I
have to lay down, start sweating
39
00:02:08,020 –> 00:02:11,860
and panicking, And the best way
I can describe it is like having
40
00:02:11,860 –> 00:02:14,420
a fever dream.
Everything that I’m dreaming
41
00:02:14,420 –> 00:02:17,860
about seems real, and none of it
makes sense to me.
42
00:02:18,180 –> 00:02:20,540
I’m being picked up.
I’m being moved.
43
00:02:20,540 –> 00:02:24,480
I’m being probed and prodded.
The dreams turn into nightmares
44
00:02:24,480 –> 00:02:28,160
and it’s so vivid.
I’m sitting on like an operating
45
00:02:28,160 –> 00:02:33,200
table and I’m being messed with.
They’re they’re looking at me.
46
00:02:33,800 –> 00:02:35,640
I can’t see what’s looking at
me.
47
00:02:35,640 –> 00:02:38,600
It’s just moving me around.
Everything is so bright.
48
00:02:38,600 –> 00:02:42,200
Everything is is like sterile
looking.
49
00:02:42,480 –> 00:02:46,240
It’s like I’m in a hospital, but
every time I break out of it and
50
00:02:46,440 –> 00:02:49,680
wake up from my dream, I go look
out the front window.
51
00:02:49,680 –> 00:02:52,700
I’m still there.
I’m still right where I am.
52
00:02:52,780 –> 00:02:56,820
I’m still at that truck stop.
I try to fall back asleep, but
53
00:02:56,820 –> 00:03:00,060
every time I fall back asleep,
I’m having the same dream.
54
00:03:00,060 –> 00:03:02,740
And it goes on like this all
night.
55
00:03:03,260 –> 00:03:05,340
Moments of these horrible
nightmares.
56
00:03:05,660 –> 00:03:09,340
And then I go look out the front
window and I’m exactly where I
57
00:03:09,420 –> 00:03:10,860
am.
Nothing feels right.
58
00:03:10,860 –> 00:03:14,980
My head is spinning.
I’m physically sick, but it it’s
59
00:03:14,980 –> 00:03:17,300
like like I had the flu or
something.
60
00:03:17,300 –> 00:03:20,180
Like none of it made any sense
to me.
61
00:03:20,870 –> 00:03:24,350
I must have finally just
exhausted myself and I slept.
62
00:03:24,910 –> 00:03:28,510
I slept until the sun came up.
I wake up and I see the sun
63
00:03:28,510 –> 00:03:32,030
peeking through my curtains.
Must be morning and I I need to
64
00:03:32,030 –> 00:03:35,230
get back on the road.
But when I go to step outside of
65
00:03:35,230 –> 00:03:38,870
my truck and get everything
ready, I realize I’m not in
66
00:03:38,870 –> 00:03:42,830
Arizona anymore.
In fact, I’m nowhere near
67
00:03:43,030 –> 00:03:47,990
Arizona.
I’m hours upon hours away in
68
00:03:47,990 –> 00:03:52,440
Florida.
Between 3:00 and 8:00 in the
69
00:03:52,440 –> 00:03:55,720
morning.
I’ve traveled from Arizona to
70
00:03:55,720 –> 00:03:58,760
Orlando, FL.
You can do the math.
71
00:03:59,080 –> 00:04:03,280
It’s not possible.
There’s no logical way that I
72
00:04:03,280 –> 00:04:05,800
could be here.
I didn’t drive.
73
00:04:05,840 –> 00:04:08,960
And even if I did drive, even if
that white line fever took a
74
00:04:08,960 –> 00:04:12,720
hold of me, there’s no way I
could have driven that hard that
75
00:04:12,720 –> 00:04:18,019
fast to get down here.
It doesn’t make sense, but then
76
00:04:18,019 –> 00:04:21,620
weirder things start happening.
My rig is all the way filled,
77
00:04:21,700 –> 00:04:25,180
like filled to the top.
Everything, even window washer
78
00:04:25,180 –> 00:04:29,620
fluid is filled.
Battery to my phone is fully
79
00:04:29,620 –> 00:04:33,620
charged, my bed’s made-up, the
trash is out of my truck,
80
00:04:34,060 –> 00:04:37,820
Everything is just pristine and
spotless.
81
00:04:38,340 –> 00:04:41,380
I needed some logic.
I called my boss and explained
82
00:04:41,380 –> 00:04:45,950
to him where I was and he told
me there’s there’s no way you
83
00:04:45,950 –> 00:04:48,510
were in Arizona.
We know that you were in Arizona
84
00:04:48,510 –> 00:04:50,150
because you just picked up your
load.
85
00:04:50,870 –> 00:04:54,630
Now you’re in Florida.
There’s no, there’s no way that
86
00:04:54,630 –> 00:04:57,750
this could happen.
Bobby, what are you talking
87
00:04:57,750 –> 00:05:01,350
about?
I know it sounds absurd, but I
88
00:05:01,350 –> 00:05:04,910
believe that I was set up.
I believe that those men who had
89
00:05:04,910 –> 00:05:09,350
the highway blocked sent me
through some sort of time loop
90
00:05:09,910 –> 00:05:14,870
portal, maybe alien abduction.
They knew where I was headed and
91
00:05:14,870 –> 00:05:17,630
that’s where they dropped me
after they were done with me.
92
00:05:18,430 –> 00:05:22,350
I don’t expect anyone to believe
me, but I have log books to
93
00:05:22,350 –> 00:05:27,270
where I started in Arizona and
then gassed up in Florida.
94
00:05:28,070 –> 00:05:29,550
None of this makes any sense to
me.
95
00:05:29,590 –> 00:05:31,910
Somebody please make it make
sense to me.
96
00:05:32,350 –> 00:05:36,150
What happened to me that night.
It’s never happened again.
97
00:05:36,870 –> 00:05:38,870
In fact, I don’t dream at all
anymore.
98
00:05:39,590 –> 00:05:43,160
I just go to sleep, but
something has happened,
99
00:05:43,480 –> 00:05:48,880
something has changed within me
and I don’t know, Bobby, that’s
100
00:05:48,920 –> 00:05:51,920
a wonderful story and I wish I
had answers for you.
101
00:05:52,080 –> 00:05:56,000
I truly wish I did.
But I’ve heard so many stories
102
00:05:56,440 –> 00:05:59,600
of alien abductions or time
loops or portals.
103
00:06:00,160 –> 00:06:02,600
Tell me in the comments what you
think happened to Bobby.
104
00:06:03,520 –> 00:06:06,600
Don’t forget we have Paranormal
night shift stickers available
