Light a candle, (but don't burn the
place down!) ...settle into an armchair, or snuggle up in bed...I
present my own true ghost story to keep you company in the wee hours
:)PART 2 is tomorrow - same time!
ObsoleteOddity it's 6:30 am in SA Oddie - I just got to work - have to wait until I get home - I've waited so long for this upload .
Thank you for your hard work. Can't wait to watch the vid.
All I can say is bravo, the images are beautiful. It's that a real family pic of a woman and 2 boys in the stairs ripping away at the wallpaper?
I got so mad when I saw "part two next" lol I'm ready to watch more now!
wow. Do you remember how old you were oddie?
You sir have the most genuinely unique channel of this sort. Glad you started narrating, your voice is quite an asset. Thanks.
Thank you David!
I was thinking the same too👍
@@flohiggins4210 - Me too. I've watched plenty of his reading only videos, but I like the narration better.
the rumors are true amigo...your art is one of a kind and you have an amazing voice. This is what a chill down the spine should feel like. I would think that history has provided endless macabre. I look foward to every new tale. Thank you Oddie :)
Wonderful feedback.....thank you Anthony :)
Hi Oddie- I adore you. Sir, you are like therapy for me. When I’m having a yucky day, I just relax & let you tell me a enthralling story & I’m much better .
Thank You, Sir
Wendelin
Thanks for your very kind feedback - very much appreciated :)
Oh my gosh, LOVE Part 1, and am SO excited for part two. You have such a lovely voice Oddie. Thanks for sharing a personal tale with us. I knew you were interested in the paranormal (or I guessed at it), but given Part 1, I think I might know from whence it came. Cheers mate!
Seems the video just started & it was over - fastest 9 minutes of my life. You have that special touch at telling stories that I get lost in honey. Looking forward to part 2🎈
That's a sweet compliment my friend - thank you!
same
i dont have a candle or a bed, but i am enjoying a coffee before work in the break room, which is good enough to me. your way of storytelling makes it feel like youre actually telling a story, as in reading a book to me. its unique and relaxing
Yes my work morning routine put on oddy pop in an ear bud and jam out til break
Wow! One and a half minutes into this video and you’ve described my childhood culture shock moving from Wyoming to Seattle WA.
Oddie and friends. I lived in a house in upstate New York. A mansion built per American revolution. One night I woke up to the sound of laughter and tinkling glasses. I was wide awake.
My first thought was that my son was watching TV downstairs on a school night. I went down and saw all in darkness. A visit to the children's room showed both boys sleeping in their beds. This happened a few more times. In the freezing cold I learned to ignore them!
Thank You for these stories! While I am certain you have heard before, what a familiar, expressive, and wonderfully soothing voice you have... a compliment always feels new, and terrific! And who doesn't love a compliment as humble as we may be.TY again.
Thank you for your very kind feedback Lisa - Much appreciated :)
I've lived in 2 haunted houses - it's no fun. Makes for a good story but living through it is so stressful. Can't wait to see how your experience turns out!
Christine Cortese Ive lived in more than one property that has been otherwise occupied but also worked at a few places of the same ilk don't think it helps that I've always been sensitive just like most of my family.
You two aren't alone!! Boy is preoccupied property stressful. I'm more sensitive and alert than anyone in my family....even my mother. My brothers and I often find ourselves sharing tales that we never knew each was aware of. Seems as though every house we lived in was already rented or leased. Boy, the stories we have.
Friend of mine told of the father of her kids leaving her for a 17-year-old girl. He paid no child support. One day he came over to her house wearing a new leather jacket and driving an expensive new car. They had some words and he left. He got into his flashy new car and shut the car door. One second later, the windshield spontaneously shattered for no apparent reason. He was left sitting stunned in a pile of glass in the driver's seat. Sometimes the universe takes revenge for you.
I can understand it as my father in law from Liveroool couldn't wait to leave England. He hated the cold weather and loved the Australian weather and lifestyle too. This must have been so hard for you Oddie. England's gain with you was certainly Australia's loss that's for sure. From yet another Aussie here down under.
Well I didn't get used to it either, and went back aged 18 - Australia was in my heart.
+John
I think John deleted his comment, but here was my reply to his comment when he told Oddie to stick to historical figures and no not mythomania.
You are entitled to your opinion, but if you're really a fan of Oddie's channel, you would appreciate his personal encounter with the unknown.
Bless you sweetheart!

Yes, exactly
I love ghost stories around Christmas and this fits the bill. I shall make a cup of some such a thing and listen. Happy Christmas!
Thanks for your very kind feedback Anna - much appreciated :)
Merry Christmas my friend!
This explains your accent. Not quite Aussie, not quite British.
Kats ,
I always think he sounds british i cant recognise accents well because english is not my mother tongue
@The Curious Mindyes I agree. Love his voice!!!
Or a beautiful blend of both.
@ - It sounds like a blend to me (more British though). When he says the word, "wide" for "wide open spaces," for example.
Well, you've drawn me into this story, and I am looking forward to part 2. Thank you for always having such interesting stories.
How delightful! Coming back from a bout of flu to discover new Oddie material....JACKPOT!!! Learning a little more of Oddie's life before TH-cam is perfectly lovely. Thank you so much for sharing this with us....🖤🇨🇦
Sorry to hear of your illness my friend. I hope you're fighting fit again!
Thanks as always for the lovely feedback :)
Okay, this is extremely creepy. Well done, Oddie! Thank you for sharing the first part of this with us. I cannot wait for the rest of this story.
You never disappoint!
I....love....this!!!! Part 2 here I come!! A creepy true story??? Wowsers😧
I come here just to listen to your voice. Well not exactly I love old mysteries and ghost stories. But with your voice, I would visit even if you read the phone book.❤
7.33 in the morning and I'm happy, that I've watched it now and not in the middle of the night. So so creepy!!!!! I got chills... thank you so much for sharing your experience and childhood story ♡
Thank you Stephanie! It's gets creepier! :)
When I was 3 years old I had an experience that I cannot really truly explain. I was wide awake, I had a soothing voice speak to me. I was calm but frightened. This voice was deep but made me feel that this might be a dream but I know that it wasn’t. I have remembered this event all my life but always have convinced myself it was nothing but a child’s imagination. I ran into my parents room yelling there is a ghost in room. So difficult to express on how I felt but it was so enticing and so real even as a child, cannot really explain but it did happen..
You are a remarkable human being, your spouse is a very lucky person, you have such a talent :-)
I LOVE this channel. Thanks for this video and on to part 2 I love rosaries and crusafixes and anything like that it is just something that has always comforted me...
ODDIE, ANOTHER VIDEO THAT'S, SUPERBLY CRAFTED. YOU KNOW THAT I, WILL BE PLAYING THIS VIDEO AGAIN FOR HALLOWEEN. ~♥~.THANKS ODDIE.
Ha! Aw, I imagine that's the effect England has on most people when they first get here. Interesting story, thanks for sharing!
Yay!! Thank you :)) I've been waiting since you told me about this! Your voice is just perfect for these videos! Can't wait for part 2 ;-)
liking before starting to watch the video. 😊
Emma Boysen we'll wait for part 2. 😂😊
rhea jimtas I did it.. Always
Metoo. Always do.
rhea jimtas ALWAYS!!😂🍻
Thank you my friends! :)
Hi!!! I enjoyed this story today. Yes. It was scarry & spooky. Some things we just cannot explain...
England has always scared me a bit. I'm a Yank, lol and have never left America. I can feel English buildings vibrate through pictures, so I can only imagine how it buzzes in real life. Australia scares me too, because of the big bugs!
OMG love it. What a creepy story, excited for the next story.
Favourite TH-cam channel and narrator. Glad you're back😊
I remember my mother telling me a story my brother told her. He was around 11, 12. Mom, rest of the family were inside the Church, was a Sunday afternoon (not even sure if I were born yet, as he's one of my older brothers, I have 7). My brother was outside alone, playing by a tree that was located on church grounds. When he said something appeared and started chasing him around and around the tree they went until he managed to run away thru the church doors, hysterical as you could imagine. What was it, he told them it was the Devil himself. Not sure what you believe as far as the religious realm! But I do believe in possessions. Needless to say, my mother was/is a very religious woman. She made sure whatever "it" was wouldn't bother her family again.
I just started part 1, of your haunting. SO excited.. Will report back - on part 3, that is. As always, thanks for sharing your story. It's not always easy to let others in when revealing supernatural occurrences, so I 👏 you.
Thanks for sharing that Jan!
Never mind the candle. Just curl up in the dark with my favorite blanket, a hot cup of coa coa and I'm ready for my bedtime story 😊.
Yes, or better yet just plain old coffee 😊. I apologise for my spelling ☺.
It always starts with bangs and footsteps upstairs. Haha This ended too quick. Can't wait for part 2. Thank you.
I hadn't had the opportunity to listen to this one until now. Glad it has three parts, now I can enjoy it while I'm in forced bed rest (hurt my right knee, it's a pain not being able to move around when you have so much to do >_
Interesting story WOW always found the REAL paranormal events more exciting to here about than the fake stuff...
I love the little things you add, like a mouse or the car exhaust...you're brilliant with your videos, Oddie!
I love your voice and I love your stories! I'm a big fan! I hope you continue to be inspired to post more creepy stories! :)
Don’t know how I came by Obsolete Oddity but I’m so happy I did! For the first two nights I listened I found that the sound of your voice put me straight to sleep. Not that the stories aren’t incredibly interesting, because they are, it’s just something about your deep soft tone. It’s haunting, yet calming and peaceful. I will definitely become a patron subscriber!
Thanks for your great feedback my friend !
Hello Oddie...I grew up in a house with spirits about also. The house was around a century old when we moved in and of course my parents had done a remodel,so the house came to full life with the disturbance. Some of the activity was from gentle apparitions,but we did have one that was a bit troublesome. It hovered in the corner of my mother's sewing room and did not like anyone in the upstairs region of the house.Too long a story for here,but to conclude...I do understand what it is like to have spirits hovering about in your abode.
Thank goodness I only have to wait until tomorrow for Part 2!!! I'm only one woman, ya know! 😁. *Adore* your voice, *love* your videos (AKA: Works of Art), and am one of your biggest fans! Thank you for sharing such a personal experience with all of us. Take care, sweet pea. MWAH! 😃💖
I grew up in a haunted house, or rather, the property was haunted. In the barn there was a little storage room that sometimes creeped me out--I would go in but I couldn't stay in there. And sometimes, I felt very strongly that I was being watched when I went into the barn to play on a swing my dad had set up. On those occasions, my cat, who liked to follow me in, would not stay no matter what.
The whatever it was came into the house once when I was alone and although I didn't see it, it came up behind my chair. I could feel it. I was so scared I wouldn't go in that room again by myself for WEEKS. But it didn't feel "bad." Maybe the poor ghost was just lonely. :(
I'm hooked and am waiting as patiently as I can for Part II. True stories are the best. Thank you, Oddie.
Naw.. I am Aussie.... and feel your sadness of leaving this beautiful country!
I can’t say how much I love your videos...the stories, your soothing (yes, soothing) narration, the clever originality are all unique and just gosh-darn wonderful. 😍
Thanks for your very kind feedback Caroline - much appreciated! 🎩
I really enjoy your haunting and spooky stories. Big fan here! Keep them coming!!
Thank you for sharing your own personal story with us. I enjoy listening to your narration. Cannot wait for part 2!
Wow that was awesome Oddie,can't wait for part 2 and 3
I love the addition of the animated gifs and the sounds of birds and such,you have really come along ways in your content creating.
The beginning of your story made me think of a visit we had from some of our Australian family in January 1966. They brought their 15 year old son Rhett, who nearly froze to death in our horrible winter weather. He missed his mates and the beach and all the poor guy had here were some much younger cousins and the movies. They eventually went home and Rhett was joyful, I’m pleased to say we still keep in contact via email and Facebook. Occasionally I look at a photo of him in a gigantic overcoat he had purchased from an Army and Navy store. Bless. I must get him to access your fab tales and stories.
Finally , been waiting for three weeks , but I can't watch it now , just got to work , gonna have to wait til I get home .
Wow! Just love this story, and the pictures and sounds you added in, you are fabulous! Can-t wait for part 2! Thank you.
Very interesting! Can't wait for part 2!! I enjoy your videos very much, especially with the excellent narration.
Hi, I just love your spooked stories , I save them for the evening when I'm done of my day , love that you do the reading of them now ,I've shared with friends they are delighted with then , thank you for the great treat , all ways waiting for the next , Bless you and your family ! ❤️🇨🇦🙏🏽🇨🇦❤️
I wasn't expecting that abrupt ending! I was too focused to notice how much was left, lol. Can't wait for part two!
loved this video, and when you explained the scratching in the ceiling and how you father went up to attic to clear the birds/animals I could RELATE, why, because the same thing happened to me as a child, odd scratching above my room, like a critter sometimes reminded me of someone dragging something as well. It went on for sometime and told my dad it kept me up at night, they heard it, it was only above my room, I remember he and the neighbor (older man) took a ladder and proceeded to go up to the attic through my closet, nothing was there, nothing, no animals, no birds no nest!! the sound continued then went away after some time. There were other things....but this wasn't an old house, not at all, probably 12 years old when it occured.
Love your stories, Oddie!! Can't wait for part 2..
Love it. Seems like quite the past you had, Oddie. Creepy to feel like you're being watched. I'm patiently waiting for tonight's episode.
A fascinating post. I can't wait to see the next two parts. When I was twelve my parents lived in a "haunted" house with very similar occurrences. I am definitely a believer....
Absolutely brilliant and I love the pictures you have added. Here's to the next one. Many thanks for sharing
Oddy!!! You're back! 👍
Oh Creepy Joy! I can hardly wait for the next 2 parts. Thanks, Oddie. I love your videos!
I absolutely love your story telling style! This should be a tv series ... love it!
♡♡♡Looking forward to hearing the rest of your story Oddie!!! This is so amazing & awesome of you to open up & share your personal experiences. ♡♡♡
Oh my, I am so excited that you have a new video! Love your ghost story, I could listen to you all day & night. Look forward to part 2! Awesome video! Ty 👍👍👍😳

Great story so far, you got me hooked. I can't wait for the next part.
What an awesome and haunting story...gonna watch Part 2 now..great job, Oddi..thanks!
Thank You for sharing!!! Can't wait fir part 2.
Omg 😲 I've been waiting for you to tell us your story as you mentioned In one of your videos from before. Thank you 😊 I'm going to listen 👂 now!!! Should mention this is the perfect time to listen as I'm trying to get over a flu 😷
Thanks for doing this Oddie-I knew it'd be interesting!!😀 ...Can't wait for "Part 2"! 😮👻
Excellent video, I can't wait for part 2 to hear what happened next.
Fantastic so far! Can't wait for the next installment!
Such a great storyteller you are! You don't go into long, drawn out details, just enough to give an idea for the minds eye. And as many have already said, your voice and accent are so soothing and fun to listen to. I'm excited to hear the rest of this story!
That’s very kind of you, I try to imagine how I would like to hear a story told, the majority here on TH-cam I just could not listen to.
Hi Oddie...Ive been awaiting your next installment! This is a great story and Im off to check out Part 2. This beginning has given me some flashbacks. I was to raised in the country and the hous made these walking and creaking noises amoung other things that were unexplainable. When we were downstairs we would hear someone walking around upstairs. When we were up we would hear all kinds of crashing noises ..things moving noises that to this day cant be explained. The older I got the creepier it got! There was something there!
I always think of Wurthering Heights. I also think.of the Geordie accents and even for me they are very difficult to understand. Newcastle in particular. lol
I was born in a house built in the early years of the 1800's, on a hill. There were fields where crops were raised and cattle grazed but beyond that nothing but deep woods for miles. We were 9 miles from the nearest neighbor. Doors opened and shut by themselves. Even when locked and bolted. Windows as well. You could see the bolt sliding back, the door knob turning. No one who came to visit would stay after dark, but I still loved my home. It was all I had ever known. My home is gone now but I still go there, in my dreams.
Thank you for sharing that - it's almost poetic.
@@ObsoleteOddity Thank you. I love your channel so much. By far the best of its kind, each video flawlessly narrated, lovingly crafted. What was your Aunt's specialty?
Man, you left me hanging. Can't wait for the next part.
I've just started to watch this series of videos. it's very enthralling, and in your usual style, one feels both the mystery and a deep sense of creepiness as the story moves along. I get the sense that you were quite a curious child, and easily able to be immersed in your own world (I'm not sure if that's the case, but it's something I can relate to). I'm curious, do you think your fascination with historical mysteries and oddities - the unseen and the unknown - stemmed from personal experiences like this one? Anyway, I'm on to part 2. :)
The narration is wonderful, and the editing too! Really enjoyed this!
Ghost stories are my favorite! Happy not-so-new new year, Oddie. Thank you for sharing this.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback Mayra, much appreciated :)
Wonderful storytelling! I can not wait for part two. I enjoy your voiceovers on the other videos.
I can't wait for part two! I don't think I could stay in such a house. I mean I've seen and heard things myself but I could never live in a haunted house.
Glad I came across this video can't wait for part 2 so excited. I watched this video like I do all of these videos and scary movies.....alone in the dark not one light on.
Can't wait for part 2. Thank you
Ty for sharing, I love your voice, and the cool clips in between, so awesome!
I've been waiting so long for another vid. Not complaining, just excited. :D
Heather Rae yes,yes me too
♥️♥️♥️♥️Really enjoy your show,it’s a great distraction when the chaos in the world overwhelms me.
Thank you so much!
Love Part 1 and can't wait to see Part 2! 👍
I've had a lot of strange happen in my life I could fill a small notebook. It's funny how I can still remember every detail of them.
You always manage to set a good spooky mood. I can't wait to hear the rest! Perhaps I won't watch it in a dark room right before I have to sleep next time, heh.
I feel really sad for your child self. I appreciate you sharing your story.😍
Wow! This is great! I love a good ghost story - especially when it's a true story! Looking forward to Part 2.
Excellent video! I can relate and I'm looking forward to part 2 soon!!
