00:00:00,200 –> 00:00:03,400
Welcome to Paranormal Night.
Shift your home for all things

2
00:00:03,400 –> 00:00:06,560
that go bump in the dark and
your fan stories told here.

3
00:00:07,000 –> 00:00:09,920
Abandoned buildings.
It’s hard to believe that

4
00:00:09,920 –> 00:00:13,680
somebody would just pack up and
leave, especially in this day

5
00:00:13,680 –> 00:00:15,600
and age.
Where do they go?

6
00:00:16,239 –> 00:00:18,400
Why would you just leave your
house?

7
00:00:18,680 –> 00:00:22,000
It doesn’t make any sense to a
lot of us, but what if you had

8
00:00:22,000 –> 00:00:26,240
to?
And what is so alluring about an

9
00:00:26,240 –> 00:00:29,720
abandoned building?
Today’s story comes from Lily in

10
00:00:29,720 –> 00:00:32,880
Winnipeg.
There was woods behind my house

11
00:00:32,880 –> 00:00:35,000
growing up and I absolutely
loved it.

12
00:00:35,440 –> 00:00:39,520
It was just gorgeous, nothing
but Canadian wilderness.

13
00:00:39,920 –> 00:00:44,040
So fun as a kid.
Times were different back then.

14
00:00:44,320 –> 00:00:48,440
You didn’t have iPads and you
didn’t have video games.

15
00:00:48,440 –> 00:00:51,680
You just went outside.
That’s what you did.

16
00:00:52,160 –> 00:00:55,040
Kids would be gone most of the
day playing in the woods, and

17
00:00:55,420 –> 00:00:58,180
you knew that you had to be back
home before the lights went out.

18
00:00:58,300 –> 00:01:01,660
The woods behind my house went
up for what felt like forever.

19
00:01:02,060 –> 00:01:05,580
I was lucky enough to have
horses growing up, so I would

20
00:01:05,580 –> 00:01:08,020
always ride.
It was never a big deal.

21
00:01:08,300 –> 00:01:11,940
Like for me just to go ride.
I’d ride two or three hours and

22
00:01:11,940 –> 00:01:14,580
then stop and ride two or three
hours back.

23
00:01:15,020 –> 00:01:18,980
It was what we did for fun.
I was riding in a direction that

24
00:01:18,980 –> 00:01:22,100
I hadn’t ridden before, just
passing more and more

25
00:01:22,100 –> 00:01:24,900
wilderness.
And then I saw this house.

26
00:01:25,620 –> 00:01:29,340
Old, abandoned house.
The windows were smashed in.

27
00:01:29,740 –> 00:01:34,340
The door was wide open, but
something drew me to it.

28
00:01:34,780 –> 00:01:36,780
I wanted to stop.
I was a curious kid.

29
00:01:36,780 –> 00:01:38,580
I wanted to check it out, you
know?

30
00:01:39,220 –> 00:01:43,260
The house was dusty inside.
Nobody had been in here for

31
00:01:43,300 –> 00:01:46,500
years.
There were things torn apart

32
00:01:46,500 –> 00:01:50,580
everywhere, and something had
clearly lived in there.

33
00:01:51,140 –> 00:01:53,540
But I didn’t see anything out of
place.

34
00:01:53,540 –> 00:01:59,560
It didn’t seem disinviting, just
scary, like an old house would

35
00:01:59,560 –> 00:02:02,320
be.
There were still pictures on the

36
00:02:02,320 –> 00:02:05,040
mantle.
There were still dishes in the

37
00:02:05,040 –> 00:02:08,360
sink.
Why would somebody just leave?

38
00:02:08,840 –> 00:02:11,360
And how come I’ve never seen
this house before?

39
00:02:12,120 –> 00:02:16,240
I explored for a couple minutes,
room for room, and every room

40
00:02:16,240 –> 00:02:20,200
was the same thing.
Still sheets on the bed, still

41
00:02:20,200 –> 00:02:23,680
clothes in the closet.
There was a fireplace in the

42
00:02:23,680 –> 00:02:28,410
living room and it just drew me
to it as I looked at all the

43
00:02:28,410 –> 00:02:30,650
pictures of this family on the
Mantel.

44
00:02:31,370 –> 00:02:34,410
That’s when everything took a
very dark turn.

45
00:02:34,730 –> 00:02:37,530
Something asking me, what are
you doing here?

46
00:02:37,610 –> 00:02:40,490
I turned around, startled.
I’m sorry.

47
00:02:40,490 –> 00:02:41,890
I didn’t know anybody lived
here.

48
00:02:41,890 –> 00:02:43,250
I’m so.
I’m so sorry.

49
00:02:43,250 –> 00:02:47,290
But there was no one there.
I heard it again.

50
00:02:47,970 –> 00:02:52,170
What are you doing here again?
I’ve been through the whole

51
00:02:52,170 –> 00:02:53,610
house there.
There was nobody here.

52
00:02:54,250 –> 00:02:56,410
I’m sorry.
I’m sorry.

53
00:02:56,890 –> 00:02:59,450
I didn’t know.
I’ll leave now.

54
00:03:00,410 –> 00:03:03,890
Then it Then it got louder.
It became more aggressive.

55
00:03:04,410 –> 00:03:06,170
Get out.
Get out.

56
00:03:06,170 –> 00:03:10,570
It said I got on my horse and I
rode, but logic took over.

57
00:03:10,570 –> 00:03:13,490
I I I just broke into somebody’s
house.

58
00:03:13,770 –> 00:03:16,130
That’s what happened.
I just broke into somebody’s

59
00:03:16,130 –> 00:03:17,850
house.
I’m going to go to jail.

60
00:03:18,050 –> 00:03:19,330
They’re going to call the cops
on me.

61
00:03:20,570 –> 00:03:22,570
You don’t do this.
People don’t do this.

62
00:03:22,960 –> 00:03:26,480
What was I thinking?
But then I started thinking more

63
00:03:27,200 –> 00:03:29,480
why?
Why was the house like that?

64
00:03:30,120 –> 00:03:31,800
Maybe he wasn’t supposed to be
there.

65
00:03:32,560 –> 00:03:35,600
I rode home and I told my mom
and dad about what happened that

66
00:03:35,600 –> 00:03:37,480
day.
They were mad at me for going

67
00:03:37,480 –> 00:03:40,640
into the house, but my father
was a very curious man as well.

68
00:03:41,400 –> 00:03:43,680
Nobody’s lived in those houses
for years.

69
00:03:43,680 –> 00:03:45,480
Nobody’s lived down there for
years.

70
00:03:46,240 –> 00:03:49,600
We need to ride down there and
make sure that nobody’s who’s

71
00:03:49,600 –> 00:03:51,240
not supposed to be there is
living there.

72
00:03:52,360 –> 00:03:55,720
We rode down there the next day.
I love my father for that.

73
00:03:56,160 –> 00:03:58,280
He always believed in my
curiosity.

74
00:03:59,280 –> 00:04:03,280
We rode back down there the next
day and we saw that the door was

75
00:04:03,280 –> 00:04:05,200
the same way.
The windows were the same way.

76
00:04:06,080 –> 00:04:08,240
My father went to the front door
and knocked.

77
00:04:09,200 –> 00:04:11,600
Is anybody here?
Anyone here?

78
00:04:12,640 –> 00:04:15,040
No one’s supposed to be here.
I need to.

79
00:04:15,560 –> 00:04:18,120
I need to talk to you.
My father and I walked around in

80
00:04:18,120 –> 00:04:20,240
the house just like I had done
the day before.

81
00:04:21,180 –> 00:04:25,820
We explored everything, but
again, drawn to the fireplace.

82
00:04:26,740 –> 00:04:30,620
It just seems so weird.
There’s still pictures here.

83
00:04:30,620 –> 00:04:36,060
There’s this everybody.
It still felt like somebody

84
00:04:36,060 –> 00:04:39,180
should be here who would leave
their stuff.

85
00:04:39,620 –> 00:04:42,300
Why would you leave all your
stuff?

86
00:04:42,940 –> 00:04:46,020
Why would you let the windows be
broken in and the door swinging

87
00:04:46,020 –> 00:04:48,180
off the hinges?
Why?

88
00:04:48,340 –> 00:04:50,380
None of this made any sense to
me and my father.

89
00:04:51,220 –> 00:04:54,140
We started to hear footsteps
from the other rooms that we had

90
00:04:54,140 –> 00:04:57,020
already been in.
We knew nobody was in the house.

91
00:04:57,020 –> 00:05:01,580
We’d searched everything.
My father had a feeling.

92
00:05:02,780 –> 00:05:06,740
He walked into the other room
holding my hand and that’s when

93
00:05:06,740 –> 00:05:12,500
we saw it. 2 red glowing eyes.
The two red glowing eyes looked

94
00:05:12,500 –> 00:05:16,380
at us and moved from across the
room at a pace that no human

95
00:05:16,380 –> 00:05:19,140
could have moved.
It yelled at us get out.

96
00:05:19,700 –> 00:05:22,170
And we did.
My father and I both ran as

97
00:05:22,170 –> 00:05:25,530
quickly as we could.
My father and I made a pack

98
00:05:25,530 –> 00:05:27,290
never to go back to that house
again.

99
00:05:28,330 –> 00:05:30,770
The house is still standing
there on the property.

100
00:05:31,770 –> 00:05:34,250
Nobody knows what it is, but it
has gained the reputation.

101
00:05:34,250 –> 00:05:37,970
Has the haunted house.
Teenage kids go in there all the

102
00:05:37,970 –> 00:05:38,610
time.
Now.

103
00:05:39,650 –> 00:05:43,930
How does a house become haunted?
There is no back story.

104
00:05:44,410 –> 00:05:47,690
We don’t know.
I don’t want to go and grab

105
00:05:48,010 –> 00:05:50,490
pictures off of the mantle, but
I want to know who these people

106
00:05:50,490 –> 00:05:52,690
were and what’s their story.
