My dear friends, Here's my Christmas present to you all It will probably be demonetised eventually, (maggots are probably not advertiser friendly - lol) ...but I don't care. I didn't want to dilute my content just to fit their agenda. You may be wondering why I used images of 60s and 70s era hotel rooms - well I just find the styles from those eras way more interesting. Some viewers will know what's playing on the TVs there. :) Take care and stay safe my Oddites - wishing you all the best!
Merry Christmas from Texas Oddie and thank you so much for this gift. I have not yet watched it but I know it will be worthwhile like so many of your other vids. I just had to click & thumbs it up asap. I couldn't help it.. Peace!!!
Thanks soooooo much for the upload and sharing it with us. I really enjoyed this and look forward to more from you. Happy Holidays to you and yours. This comes to you from Arizona.
Seeing a new video from you feels something like checking in and catching up with a friend - somehow gratifying and reassuring. Thank you for continuing to share, friend!
Thank you Oddy. Great story! I wish I could join your Patreon page, but times are very tough for me and it is unattainable monetarily. When you post a nice long story like this on youtube, it's really means a lot. Merry Christmas to you.
Me too and it really upsets me pretty bad. Especially when you finally find a channel like this one and want so badly to help. I lost my job a yr ago and now working at a very low wage with all my experience its embarassing and degrading. Being humble barely pays the bills and the lifestyle is non existent now. Getting over depression is another issue, but with channels like this, how I wish I could contribute.
@@lookup5200 Stay strong. This didn't happen because you're a bad person or some sort of weakling. You have to be in survival mode right now, so don't worry about being embarrassed or degraded. Any honest, legal work is far preferable to having none. I've been in this situation myself and I've seen both my ex-husband and my father going through it. The belt-tightening is worth it in the long run. You'll be that much stronger for it. As for the depression, try to find someone or something that needs a lift. Try volunteering in an animal shelter if you like animals. You might even end up getting job leads if you volunteer somewhere.
I am with u guys, home I wish disability income was closer to what ur actual income was at the time of disability & then cost of living increases each year.
Thank you for this scary story. I believe hotels can be haunted. I remember back in my teen years, a group of us friends were staying at this hotel. This one room that was given to us, walked in and the first thing you noticed on the orange carpet in between the two beds was a great big red stain from there the stain continued like a drag mark to the door. Creeping us all out knowing it could be blood. We shut the lights off and went out to have dinner. Come back to the room, all the lights were on. Very uneasy feeling. So we got another room to stay in. Well, that's my experience there. I wish you a Merry Christmas Oddie.
We'll heck, no wonder there was only one room available during a convention. IT WAS HAUNTED! Anyway, I'm late again in viewing but as always it's a fascinating story with superb graphics and narration. Thanks Oddie for another great work. Christmas hugs from Texas. 🎄
I always wait to watch your videos when I will not be interrupted. I don't want to miss a thing! I watched this in a motel suite, with the lights out. I almost jumped out of my skin when I heard my son move in his sleep. Great job! Merry Christmas, Oddie and Oddette!
Our economic situation has FINALLY improved! It has been slowly but surely improving over the last 2 years! I'm finally going to be able to contribute at least something via your Patreon account! Thank you again for your wonderful entertaining stories! Pure delight & enjoyment! Thanks always, Kim in Georgia
Kiki Sisi Congratulations on your improved circumstances, may your holidays be joyful, and your addition of Patreon as delightful as I know it will be.🖤🇨🇦
Robert Gardea I am not in debt thank you. We burned the mortgages on both home and business properties years ago, do not run credit card debt, anything put on card comes off at month end when statement comes before any interest accrues. No payments on the van, and no line of credit. We are both seniors , who worked since teens, and had our own business, still running for 40 years. We haven’t touched RRSPs yet, and still pay into them, but do receive the CPP we paid into all our working lives. I know the USA is a debt based economy, that wants everyone in debt, but you can find a way through that, you don’t HAVE to do what THEY want you to. 🖤🇨🇦
Oh, man! Thanks Oddie. We are traveling to Georgia for Christmas and have to stay in hotels on the way and on the way back. I never like staying in these places for a variety of reasons, however, now.... I frightened. Ugh!
Yep, stayed in a room in Escondido, CA and had a terrifying night. The experience made me a true believer when I see a video like yours, Oddy. Thank you for the upload: I know now that I am not alone. And Merry Christmas to you, too!
Wow, this was good. I used to visit this ladies house to help her out and one room in her house was cold and had a chilling odd smell. It was the only room in her house like that. I later found out her sound had killed his wife and unborn child and himself because he thought the wife was cheating. They were killed in that room long before I was born, I knew nothing about this until my grandma told me later. Happy holidays. 🎄
As always a creepy; and therefore, awesome video! I think between the tone of voice, timing and the pictures, it all just adds to the creepiness! I do believe that's why I'm so addicted to ObsoleteOddity! I binge watch these videos so much I think I need to slow down, otherwise I'm going to catch up and have to wait for each new story lol! On a side note: the "psychic flashes" or visions: I've had them my whole life and just thought it was normal, until an event that happened when I was quite young. Even then it took many more years before I started realizing just how rare these are, I'm glad that was a large part of the events that took place in this story! Stay odd my friend!
Dear Oddie even being stuck in the hospital for a week which I currently am your videos always brings me enjoyment and comfort This video was pretty spooky. Thinking about the kind of things that family went through in their hotel room and just imagining it happening in the hospital room where I'm currently staying would make me crazier than a coconut. Oddie as always keep up the fantastic videos.
Thank you for your very kind feedback Taryn - much appreciated :) I hate hospital stays, so I totally empathise with you. Hope you're out of there real soon!
Coincidence this was the only room available? How terrifying for a 15 year old. As always, well done Oddie ! Happy Christmas and Cheers to the New Year :)
@@corrineparseghian5924 Yup! If it was me, they’d have given me another room or I’d have slept in the car. Judging by the posts made by others that Oddie showed, this entire hotel is home to supernatural activity, so maybe it wouldn’t matter what room you were in🤷🏽♀️. But still. ✌🏽
Welp, I have no desire to stay in a hotel anytime soon. This is the first video of yours that has managed to majorly creep me out. The response to the reviews about "how do you know it was a little boy?" and the scratch gave me a cold chill that I still can't shake. I'm glad I made the decision to watch this during the day. Thanks for the video Oddie...even if they creep me out, they are fascinating and I always look forward to them!
Thanks for your kind feedback my friend - much appreciated :) I've stayed in very old hotels and ultra modern ones, and have experienced hauntings in both. I even worked in a hotel many decades ago where a room was haunted by the spirit of a young woman who had committed suicide in that room. None of the staff liked to enter it alone and it was only given to a guest if the hotel was fully booked.
This tale was absolutely fantastic, and the narration is wonderful! I was listening so intently, as the story is very dark...but then...I nearly lost it when the words "...like when you're alone in the basement or utility room and a scene from some horror film suddenly pops into your head, causing you to haul ass upstairs..." HAUL ASS UPSTAIRS! Dude, I literally choked on my soda because I laughed so hard and coughed at the same time. Hilarious! Then it gets all serious again. Love it!
@@ObsoleteOddity Well, I am definitely a new fan of your channel! I love listening to your narrations while I am at work. For some reason, it helps me focus while I do the accounting work. SO glad I stumbled upon the ObsoleteOddity channel!
As always you have done it again. I love the supernatural and this story is right now my alley. I love your videos so much, I share them with family and friends. They have fallen in love with your voice also. When I get notifications, I drop everything and get my ears ready for a treat. Thank you so much
for me that's how it happens snap shots. I think some of us are like lighthouses to the dead who are desperately seeking help. Its scary as hell the first time it happened to me I was about 8. Up until I was 5, I could see them like they were living and most kept there appearance not to scary some night I kept my eyes squeased tight my hands over them with my pillow and blankets over my head. As I got older the instances became pictures in my mind and then pain the pain of there deaths. All three of my daughter's were born with the same ability. I knew there boogie men was real because I could see and feel them there. I would ask our visitor to join me in the next room. And help them move on. Sometimes they just wanted to talk or confirme they were really dead. Strainge I know but very true. Yes my adult daughter's still see or hear them. Not sure what our purpose is but I help when I can..💜✌
If you can see them, they can see you. And isn't it strange how the gift of sight tends to go to the females in a family? My mother and my sister could see ghosts, and had experiences when no one else would. I also inherited the mediumistic tendency, but I'm physically intersexed, and as much a girl as a boy. It's all about intuition, and I believe women live more in the right side of their heads. If God is ever to be found and localized, it won't be in the sky, above the clouds, it will be in the right hemisphere of the brain, which contains the totality of all things.
True creepy story: A few years ago in my hometown there was a motel 6 which is very run down and mainly used for temporary housing from the state. The hotel is 1/4th of a mile from the expressway but nobody really stays there as far as travelers. A husband and wife from out of state were exhausted from driving and exited the e-way there but could only find one hotel, the motel 6. After checking in, they proceeded to their designated room. Upon entering they noticed a terrible smell and after a short amount of time they couldn't stand it anymore. They told the clerk who went up to investigate the smell. They discovered that underneath the mattress they had been laying on was a dead body... A woman was murdered & stuffed under the bed and nobody found her for weeks. I see this motel every time I go out to eat at any fast food restaurants because it was built behind them. Many people of power have tried motioning for its demolition including the sherriff but no luck yet. It remains open to this day but it has no sign anywhere to say what the building is.
That reminds me in one way of a really shady Super 8 Motel I stayed at: that being, The locals may know what the place is, but people passing through aren't aware. (Finding out there's a body in your room's mattress is RIDICULOUSLY bad though. 🤢)
@@erinthesystem9608 Motels use a hollow box to set the mattress on, that's where the body was hidden... Not in the mattress. Next time you go to a motel see if you can reach under the bed, you can't because the box frame is there.
@@Steve_1999 Yes, I'm aware that such is the case. It didn't occur to me, when I wrote the above, that my loose use of language could lead to a misunderstanding of that. What I don't understand is how this distinction is relevant(?). No offense or hostility is intended here, but: Does that somehow strike you as a usable mattress-?
I suggested Oddie do a video on the Elisa Lam story, and by extension the Cecil Hotel (which is re-opened now under the name Stay on Main). The hotel has a history unlike any other. That's the hotel Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker, stayed in during his murder spree. It was also the sight of numerous suicides and homicides as well as, the most well known Elisa Lam case.
@@CJG1419 The circumstances around how she ended up in the water tower were still bizarre. For example, how did she remove the lid alone and then, even more bizarre, how did she close it behind herself once she was in. I'm not disagreeing with you at all, I'm just saying the whole situation was rather strange. Also, if I remember correctly, there was something weird with her toxicology results. I don't know if the weird aspect had to do with how long it took them to release results, or if everything was normal and she was shown to have been taking her meds as prescribed, or if it was something else, I just remember something weird there. Regardless, I definitely didn't intend to imply she was murdered, I just meant that her whole situation was unusual at best and I would love to hear Oddies take on it, that's all.
People seem to always think there’s something wrong with the building but it can be the land on which they were build too. You don’t know what happened on it two or three hundred years ago. I’ve been to really old graveyards, back then they use to put the names and the persons address on their gravestone; where new apartment complexes/houses are now standing. ☺️ brilliant video .. 👏🏻
Richard Caine I envy you having all that Oddie content to discover and binge watch like I did so long ago. My advice is pace it out so you can fit the earlier works between his new releases. It is hard not to seriously binge though...I still go back and rewatch old ones, and I always find something I missed the first time around...sometimes the first few times. Welcome to the Oddites, a little weird perhaps, but mostly harmless...and very pleasant folks. 🖤🇨🇦
Thanks for posting this here, Oddie! I had to let my Patreon account go due to poor finances. I've had two occasions where I encountered probably haunted hotel rooms. One time, I stayed at a hotel in Baltimore, MD. Beautiful hotel, nice view of the baseball park and street below. When it came to be bed time, I did not want to turn the lights off, because I felt something moving around in the room. I couldn't see it, but I knew it was tehre. Another time, we were staying in NJ, and I smelled something that smelled very much like a dead alcoholic. It was really unpleasant. Happy Holidays!
Every time you release a new video it’s like a tremendous gift I’ve been waiting for all year. Yes! Like Christmas! Oddie you are fantastic. Please keep them coming as your fans are on the edge of their seats just waiting for you!!! Happy Christmas from San Antonio, Texas. 🎄
inspire734 Howdy! Medina county is gorgeous! I’m here in San Antonio. Born and raised. I’m happy your son stays but am sure you will be missed. Safe travels and best wishes. I’ll look for you here on Oddie’s channel! Don’t you love it? ❤️
Hi Oddie, I really feel for that family but it did make for a very cool story. Thank you to the person who sent it in and also thank you to you Oddie for adding your awesome music, images and narration. Merry Christmas to you all. x
Oddie the stories that the people send you are great..But its you who make the stories interesting..you my friend are a fantastic story teller... Merry Christmas Oddie an a blessed New Year...🎄🎁🎉❤👏
Merry Christmas to you and your and your lady Oddie! I absolutly love these true story segments. This was a good one and the creep factor was great. Keep them coming my friend! Cheers....Edwin
Very interesting and chilling story! Thank you Oddie for yet again, for the one-of-a-kind experience we can only get from your channel! I always get so excited when I see a notification that you've added something new! And the cup.....absolutely unique and charmingly creepy! I am purchasing two now, one for me and one for my daughter who is also a huge fan of yours. Great design. Please, don't ever leave TH-cam!
Thanks for your kind feedback Deanna - much appreciated :) Many thanks also for supporting my channel with your purchases! Merry Christmas to you both xx
A++ !! Very intriguing, loved it ⚰️ Pleased w the length of the posts as well. Not too long, not too short. Lots of detail to help entertain the imagination as well. You ALWAYS choose interesting, unique and macabre subject matter. Truly respect that.
OMG I love your show. The contents and your ability to tell a story is magnificent. Not to mention your voice , it is wonderfully captivating. Also,, I really enjoy how you add the mysterious whispers, and have movement in your photos. Keep up the tantalizing work.
Oddie this is a shudder up the backbone...Perfect story for Christmas Eve. Thank you ...We watched a number of your ghostly tales for the holiday, and then talked of personal experiences. It was a blast.
You're amazing. Never, ever give in, never ever sacrifice yourself to fit anyone's mold. Merry Christmas to you and yours. God bless and bring you a happy, healthy New Year.
Another wonderful production. I came home from finishing up the very last of my Christmas tasks and was able to sit down and have my lunch with an Oddie video. Absolutely amazing. There are strange things that go on in hotels. Have a wonderful Christmas, Oddie and will keep on watching for your latest works. Merry Christmas to everyone. Cheers Pat
This is great! The room obviously had some strong imprints in it. So strong that these three people picked up on it, when they had no previous psychic experiences. I would think that someone or someones, were looking for help. The corpse in the landfill... so creepy... most likely a murder victim, don't you think? Oddie! You are really growing in video talent!! I love the TV broadcasts. Best wishes, love and Merry Christmas to all!
Poor boy you must have been terrified.I was going to watch this last night ,was very tired so kept it for this morning .Thank Goodness 😱 Great video your very clever with your presentations .This one gave me the creeps maybe because it was your personal experience .Thank you for sharing 😍
Thank you so much for all your posts Oddie!! It's such a pleasure listening to each and every one of them during my commute to work on the train and walking here in London. As well as sneakily putting my headphones on at work whilst working!! Which helps me concentrate funnily enough, lol (I think my manager noticed that I've been listening to your stories whilst working, heh heh). 😅😅 Keep up the great work and content!! Happy Subscriber here!! 😁
Thanks for your very kind feedback - much appreciated! 🎩 Tell your boss I've officially given you permission to watch my videos....because it's..er...research on how to multiply work load and profits....yeh. I used to traverse around London by Tube as a little kid alone - gawd if my mum had known! (I used to stay at my older sisters flat in Chelsea during the holidays)
Thanks for this story, Oddie. My husband and I are currently staying at another hotel down the street from this one right now. We're here for a total of seven months until our home an hour away is built. Now I'm creeped out. P.S. I've stayed at at least two haunted hotels (Savanah, GA and Galveston, TX) and one B&B (Pasadena, CA) and have experienced the paranormal at two of these three places. I wouldn't say I'm a believer of the paranormal, but I can't explain my experience any other way.
I fully relate to this. I HAVE had the sense of overwhelming evil. Concidentally, to YOUR experience, I was 16 at the time. I had no visions. However, unexpectedly, my Dad passed away three days after.
I'll have to view this multiple times but can already say I enjoy all the details, like a little doll dancing on the tv screen, a clock running backwards etc. Also the carefullness with which this whole video is composed. Being at first time 8:40, quickly back to the story now!
You weave a mighty fine tale, Oddie Beau. I KNOW you give your videos that extra bit of tlc because it shows clearly in how the story flows seamlessly from one part to another. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication. You're a continunal source of quality entertainment for all your lucky subs. One Love♡
God Bless Oddity. Thank you for the Christmas present. You are a great story teller and thanks to your loyal viewer for sharing this chilling experience. Merry Christmas to you and yours, and Merry Christmas and God Bless to everyone here.
Whoa! I thought my experiences were scary, but nothing like this here. I hung on every word and was totally freaked out. I'm a scary movie buff, but only a fan of movies, not the real thing. Thanks Oddie. As always, love the narration. You're awesome!
I had a similar experience when my children were small at a Family Inn in West Virginia about 15 yrs ago. I had the feeling we were not alone and being watched. I stayed awake all night and left as soon as it was light. Upon check out I mentioned jokingly to the manager is that room haunted? Yes to my surprise he answered! A husband murdered his wife and two children in their sleep. Ten years ago, apparently only families of four can sometimes feel or see him. Lucky me! I was given my money back as long as I never pass out their address.
I'm impressed that he answered you honestly. I'm glad he did so; most people working in hospitality today are not at liberty to be honest about such things, and although I do understand that there are reasons for this, I see it as an overall loss for human connection and something which makes life a little more dull and a tiny bit lonelier.
I love how when telling a story or a part of grim history facts,you always show pictures! so creepy but so calming at same time due to your voice! weird /love it all the same
I can tell you from experience,their are spirits that won't leave, some want you to know what happened because they never got justice,some are evil and won't leave, the children? Some are not,children,if you get what I mean.Some will attach them selves to objects, a doll for instance,most of us ,when we see a certain doll,we will think ,eww,creepy doll,I will tell you, do not pick up the doll, Some of us,and you know who u are,have the ability to see,and or feel these things, for those who don't believe,well nothing I,or anyone else can say to convince you. Thank you for another great interesting story,as always,love ur animations 🤗
I deal with spirits though hypnosis and remove them. I have had some hang around inside people, sometime they are sent by God to heal organs in people can be dead relatives. Children are often scared and hang to the mothers and siblings and objects, I have had all 3. There were 5 children attached to a woman's home, it was a toy from the 1800's. They wouldn't speak to me. I had to have loved ones come and get them. Then a dark spirit in my childhood home I always felt dark evil force from a crawl space in my bedroom. Turns out it was a Native American Navajo. He followed me and my sister from a past life to this home. We were all in the same tribe. If you listen to my Healing with Jeanette-Sister Dee you can hear me speak to them. Arch Angel Michael helps take him to the light. Connie's will mention another Indian who took up residence inside my thyroid and destroyed it. We all knew each other in a past life. My sister speaks Navajo under hypnosis but not during everyday life. You will probably enjoy the videos. 70% of the population has spirit attachments without knowing it.
I'm a new listener and glong through your videos. I loved this story a i will send you some of mine. Fro being very young I have experienced some terrifying things! By the way, I am from Sunderland and this pub has been called Offies for years it's a great pub. Brilliant channel, thanks Oddie👹❤.
Thank you Oddie for the story, I'm going to have to join patreon all the good stuff is on there lol. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to one and all 😊😊😊
Sheena Becerra You will not regret joining Patreon, he truly never disappoints whether it is posted there or here. He is just more free to do things the way he wants on patron without the censors tap dancing on his creativity. I wouldn’t miss an Oddie post anywhere...he could read a menu and I would listen enthralled. Happy holidays to you.🖤🇨🇦
Have always had a love and interest for stories and accounts of the paranormal and hauntings. As an outcast when young, and being alone often, I read a lot, and stories of this sort we're my preference. Though I've never seen anything of the "hard core" nature, I have been in rooms of old houses, some deserted, some not, that would make a person uneasy and cold on a warm day, and remembered today. Not being an overly brave person, my interests have been confined to reading..But the investigator is there, though not entertained. Ha Ha!! Another good productions. Look forward to more.
Thank you so much, a fantastic account of unseen terror, I know that feeling when something approaches you from behind with malicious intent, unforgettable! Ghosts can scare but when you don't see it.......... Have a blessed and peaceful Christmas dear Oddie, you and yours 🎄☕ Cheers
Oh great! Not only did I watch this in the dark, now I am scared and I am too scared to go to Disneyland this next year like we planned! Ahhhhh! Oh well, we won't stay at that Hotel.😝 Thank you Oddie for the Christmas present. Hope you have a Merry Christmas and a safe and adventorous 2019.
Wow great video!! Scary testimony by your fan!! Well told by you!! I pray that I never stay in a room like that! 👻😨 Nice t-shirt! Adorable puppy! Cool photo of skeleton with Santa. Nice pub! Cool name!! Merry Christmas to you and Oddette and family and all of your viewers!! 😊🎅🎄⛄⛄❤️❤️❤️
Hi Oddie. The transition of energy like this grisly one is troubling at best. I know the feeling of violent energy. Its made me ice cold to the bone. The year 1991. 🖤
Wow, Oddie. I just listened to you & your family's nightmarish experience. I've never (thank God) experienced anything negative. I've had visits from my paternal Grandmother, my maternal Grandfather, and still, after 20 years, my loving Mother-in-Law, who is with me often (I feel her next to me, smell her perfume and she always cheers me up with her warmth). My Mother, however, had a terrible experience when I was a kid. I still remember it, even though I was about 6 years old. We had a marble statue (about 12 inches tall) which sat on the rug next to the wall of the archway between our enclosed porch & living room. One night, as we were watching tv, the statue just fell on its side and broke in half. It was very odd, so my Mother immediately went over to pick up the broken statue. When she knelt down and reached for it, my dog began growling and my Mom screamed for my Father shouting: "Albert! Albert! Help me! Something is holding my arm. There are two hands gripped on my forearm!!" She was rubbing her forearm with her opposite hand and she was so freaked out. I stood still, mouth open, worried about my Mom. Whatever it was let go and she calmed down. The next day she called our Parish Priest to come over and bless the house. Nothing like that ever happened again. One other weird story was my Mother's Mother, my Nana, who was the oldest of 5 children & was born in 1915. When Nana was 3 years old, she kept asking her mother (my Great Grandmother, I know...duh), "Mommy, who is that man?" My GG shrugged it off as kids have active imaginations. However, when my Nana wouldn't stop asking about this man, my GG asked her about him. Nana said "He's kneeling right there"... (pointing toward a wall in the living room of their house) ..."he's hitting the wall with his elbows." GG asked "His elbows?" Nana replied: "He has no hands and no head." My GG asked around their neighborhood and eventually found out that a man was murdered in their house, and his head & hands were chopped off. They moved quickly after hearing about it!! I can't imagine what you went through in that hotel room. That's something you definitely never forget. Love from Philly! ❤
Thank you Oddie for always making us feel special; from high-quality contents, reading our comments, saving us from trolls 😄 and uploading Christmas presents. Much love and respect, Merry Christmas!
Found your channel at like 3am trying to sleep and stayed up non stop since then 100%LOVING your channel!🎉I have really specific taste centering around weird history, bios or autobiographies,& theosiphy & religion/spirituality non fiction & you nailed it!!! THANK YOU
Oooooh Oddie! You really got your teeth into this one. Thank you Amy for sharing your story...it is definitely one that would stay with you. I have been eaten alive by things I don’t enjoy doing this past couple of months, so a trip into Oddieland was just the ticket. Now Oddie...I noticed you have branched out into the business of rubbish tips, does that include the discrete disposal of awkward to explain dead bodies? It had to be asked. I have experienced my share of hotel room haunts over the years, and they definitely are not fun or relaxing. Great images supporting the narrative here, as always, you have the masterly touch for blending the mundane with the decidedly spooky. I want to get into Oddie’s pub and see what hides behind those drapes upstairs. Now there are TWO more mugs I am lusting for...the bedtime stories has long been on my list for the next purchase, but now there is a limited edition...what to do, what to do. May the holidays (whichever you may celebrate) be safe and joyful for every Oddite, and most especially for you and Odette, and your fur babies. Be well in light and love.🖤🇨🇦
I understand you're very busy at the moment Tamarra, I hope you have some rest/chill out time coming soon. I'm always looking out for new business opportunities my friend! lol I want to get inside Oddie's pub too - have a beer or two....and then find out what's behind those drapes :)) The bedtime mug has been an all time best-seller - has easily outsold all the other mugs. So you have excellent taste :) Wishing Richard and yourself also a most blessed and peaceful Christmas period. Love & light!
ObsoleteOddity You are right, Ive been horribly busy embroiled in the thing I truly hate more than any other...politics, that I have to mediate. You ARE being coy with your new business venture hmmmm. Yep, I can try out the wares before sating my curiosity, no need to rush things...besides, you need to absorb the building’s personality before chasing around after its denizens. Deal breaker is that if there is no fireplace for story-time you can’t buy this one for home base of the cult of oddness. I bought your icon/avatar mug because story-time didn’t exist yet, not that I mind in the least...I bought it to introduce people to your channel. Everyone asks me about my Oddie mug...and I tell them too. The moment you used that dapper man image in one of your creations I was smitten when you narrate, I can imagine you sitting in a gold brocade smoking jacket and dress pants, an ascot and leather slippers to complete the image, although you DO have a pipe, which you gesticulate with more than you actually smoke it. I suspect it is a prop, and you don’t ever light it, but it’s a pleasing visual. I’m not surprised it is your best seller. The Santa (to whom the dyslexic Satanist sold his soul) is very sweet, but he is seasonal, but he is a limited edition but I suspect it will still be bedtime-stories, I just can’t resist. Thank you Oddie, I do wish you and your Beloved all the best of the Season, and the year to come. Richard and I appreciate your well-wishing, and gratefully accept that which you desire for us. I WILL grab some time from another dimension and reply to your last message...and that will be a pure pleasure.🍻🖤🇨🇦
@@tamarrajames3590 Mediating politics would be my worst nightmare Tamarra, so you have my commiserations :) I do enjoy absorbing an old building's personality, especially one that serves amber nectar, with which to contemplate one's surroundings with increasing pleasure. lol Well bless you for your purchase my friend, the icon mug is also popular; although the 'Bedtime Stories' mug has been out for quite a while now, and is available. Maybe you didn't see it. Here's the link: www.zazzle.com/oddies_historical_features_bedtime_stories_mug-168501533183317502 I do like your imagination Tamarra, such refined sensibilities m'dear. The pipe is indeed a prop at the moment, but I've decided that when I'm on the last innings, I shall fill it with various pleasant combustibles - as it won't matter much at that stage :) "The Santa (to whom the dyslexic Satanist sold his soul)" ...Ha Ha! There's no hurry to respond, at your your leisure my friend. I have the day off today, and instead of sitting in front of a computer, I will jump in the old faithful jalopy and follow where it takes me. Wishing you both the very best, as always xx
Merry Christmas Oddie and fan’s Loved the creepy story and seeing the 60/70’s photos there didn’t seem to have matching colours which made me giggle. 🌲🎁
Thank you for what you do!! also, the fact that you ❤ almost all your comments says a lot, I always notice that most utubers only ❤ popular people's accounts comments, but you take the time to do all nice comments. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT
We once stayed in a hotel room in one of our many random travels when I was a child. I can't remember now which particular trip this was, or even what state we were in at the time, but my little sister complained the next morning that she had not gotten any sleep because the ghosts of soldiers kept coming up and talking to her the whole night. As we were leaving the next morning, we noticed a civil war museum next door. We still wonder if it was a coincidence, or if some of the ghosts attached to the artifacts got lonely and went looking for someone to talk to.
Okay, you've got me hooked, will be joining your Paetreon team next week! You're videos are of the highest class, and your articulation is spot on! I understand the need for Paetreon, true crime chan's are becoming de-monitized at an alarming rate. Paetreon is also a way to support creators, like watching Public Television, cameras, lights, computer software is expensive. In order to get the quality we are getting, what's a few bucks in comparison? I am amazed you offer as little as $1 tiers! Looking forward to your videos on Paetreon as well as TH-cam. Love, peace, and Namaste!
Thank you so very much Emily, very kind of you. TH-cam is very sensitive about depicting crime cases, true stories which involve reality or nearly anything outside of fluffy kitten compilations, Most of the historical features will be on Patreon from now on; but I'll still be uploading them occasional here...plus other stuff like my excursions and explorations, etc. Check out my Patreon site and become a subscriber - there are lots of fascinating vintage cases featured there...and many more to come! I don't have tier systems on my Patreon site, I want to allow viewers to decide how much they wish to pledge, so that people of all incomes can enjoy the same access :)
My dear friends,
Here's my Christmas present to you all
It will probably be demonetised eventually, (maggots are probably not advertiser friendly - lol) ...but I don't care. I didn't want to dilute my content just to fit their agenda.
You may be wondering why I used images of 60s and 70s era hotel rooms - well I just find the styles from those eras way more interesting. Some viewers will know what's playing on the TVs there. :)
Take care and stay safe my Oddites - wishing you all the best!
Merry Christmas from Texas Oddie and thank you so much for this gift. I have not yet watched it but I know it will be worthwhile like so many of your other vids. I just had to click & thumbs it up asap. I couldn't help it.. Peace!!!
Thanks soooooo much for the upload and sharing it with us. I really enjoyed this and look forward to more from you. Happy Holidays to you and yours. This comes to you from Arizona.

Merry Christmas you Oddee you!
Ur narration makes it so interesting..!! Jz to create the mood I watched 12am exact.. Hehehe.. :)..
***Seasonal Felicitations to you too Oddie ***
Seeing a new video from you feels something like checking in and catching up with a friend - somehow gratifying and reassuring. Thank you for continuing to share, friend!
Very amusing avatar you've got, 22vx!
@@karenbrown4524 😆
Thanks friend! Story telling is an age old precious gift. And you definitely have it! :D
Oh thank you so much Oddie I've missed you very much. You are and always shall be my favorite stoy teller.
Thank you Oddy. Great story! I wish I could join your Patreon page, but times are very tough for me and it is unattainable monetarily. When you post a nice long story like this on youtube, it's really means a lot. Merry Christmas to you.
I have a similar problem. Social Security as an income can be severely limiting. I hope I can keep finding these great videos on TH-cam.
Me too and it really upsets me pretty bad. Especially when you finally find a channel like this one and want so badly to help. I lost my job a yr ago and now working at a very low wage with all my experience its embarassing and degrading. Being humble barely pays the bills and the lifestyle is non existent now. Getting over depression is another issue, but with channels like this, how I wish I could contribute.
@@lookup5200 Stay strong. This didn't happen because you're a bad person or some sort of weakling. You have to be in survival mode right now, so don't worry about being embarrassed or degraded. Any honest, legal work is far preferable to having none. I've been in this situation myself and I've seen both my ex-husband and my father going through it. The belt-tightening is worth it in the long run. You'll be that much stronger for it. As for the depression, try to find someone or something that needs a lift. Try volunteering in an animal shelter if you like animals. You might even end up getting job leads if you volunteer somewhere.
I am with u guys, home I wish disability income was closer to what ur actual income was at the time of disability & then cost of living increases each year.
Laura Y. Well its almost Christmas again ! Wasn't going to watch to scared but it's your personal story so let's go.
Thank you for this scary story. I believe hotels can be haunted. I remember back in my teen years, a group of us friends were staying at this hotel. This one room that was given to us, walked in and the first thing you noticed on the orange carpet in between the two beds was a great big red stain from there the stain continued like a drag mark to the door. Creeping us all out knowing it could be blood. We shut the lights off and went out to have dinner. Come back to the room, all the lights were on. Very uneasy feeling. So we got another room to stay in. Well, that's my experience there. I wish you a Merry Christmas Oddie.
We'll heck, no wonder there was only one room available during a convention. IT WAS HAUNTED!
Anyway, I'm late again in viewing but as always it's a fascinating story with superb graphics and narration. Thanks Oddie for another great work.
Christmas hugs from Texas. 🎄
Hi there I'm from Texas too😊😎
Gosh. The skeleton on the tv and the fan on the table! Loved that!,,
Me, too! It was a nice touch!
I always wait to watch your videos when I will not be interrupted. I don't want to miss a thing! I watched this in a motel suite, with the lights out. I almost jumped out of my skin when I heard my son move in his sleep. Great job! Merry Christmas, Oddie and Oddette!
Thanks for your kind feedback Beth - much appreciated :)
Happy Christmas!
Hi there, Oddie! 😄 Thanks so much. Wishing you the merriest Christmas with you loved ones! Take care 💕
“Haul ass upstairs” 😂 wonderful terminology
Our economic situation has FINALLY improved! It has been slowly but surely improving over the last 2 years! I'm finally going to be able to contribute at least something via your Patreon account! Thank you again for your wonderful entertaining stories! Pure delight & enjoyment! Thanks always, Kim in Georgia
Kiki Sisi Congratulations on your improved circumstances, may your holidays be joyful, and your addition of Patreon as delightful as I know it will be.🖤🇨🇦
Kiki Sisi Congrats, Kim! Forward some of that luck over to me in Ohio! 😉
Robert Gardea I am not in debt thank you. We burned the mortgages on both home and business properties years ago, do not run credit card debt, anything put on card comes off at month end when statement comes before any interest accrues. No payments on the van, and no line of credit. We are both seniors , who worked since teens, and had our own business, still running for 40 years. We haven’t touched RRSPs yet, and still pay into them, but do receive the CPP we paid into all our working lives.
I know the USA is a debt based economy, that wants everyone in debt, but you can find a way through that, you don’t HAVE to do what THEY want you to. 🖤🇨🇦
Oh, man! Thanks Oddie. We are traveling to Georgia for Christmas and have to stay in hotels on the way and on the way back. I never like staying in these places for a variety of reasons, however, now.... I frightened. Ugh!
one of the most horrific i've ever heard, mostly because it's true, impeccably told as only Oddie can, TEN STARS
And....I just crawled into my hotel bed....no joke. Will be waiting until morning to watch this one haha🤣🤗😍
Yes better to wait until tomorrow with this one. lol
This is scary, no wonder the room was empty! Lol
Lol.....sigh...I have an aversion to hotel rooms.
Good call. This one freaked me out, and I tend to listen to these stories as I fall asleep.
Yep, stayed in a room in Escondido, CA and had a terrifying night. The experience made me a true believer when I see a video like yours, Oddy. Thank you for the upload: I know now that I am not alone. And Merry Christmas to you, too!
Wow, this was good. I used to visit this ladies house to help her out and one room in her house was cold and had a chilling odd smell. It was the only room in her house like that. I later found out her sound had killed his wife and unborn child and himself because he thought the wife was cheating. They were killed in that room long before I was born, I knew nothing about this until my grandma told me later. Happy holidays. 🎄
As always a creepy; and therefore, awesome video! I think between the tone of voice, timing and the pictures, it all just adds to the creepiness! I do believe that's why I'm so addicted to ObsoleteOddity! I binge watch these videos so much I think I need to slow down, otherwise I'm going to catch up and have to wait for each new story lol! On a side note: the "psychic flashes" or visions: I've had them my whole life and just thought it was normal, until an event that happened when I was quite young. Even then it took many more years before I started realizing just how rare these are, I'm glad that was a large part of the events that took place in this story! Stay odd my friend!
Thanks for your kind feedback my friend - very much appreciated :)
Dear Oddie even being stuck in the hospital for a week which I currently am your videos always brings me enjoyment and comfort
This video was pretty spooky. Thinking about the kind of things that family went through in their hotel room and just imagining it happening in the hospital room where I'm currently staying would make me crazier than a coconut.
Oddie as always keep up the fantastic videos.
Thank you for your very kind feedback Taryn - much appreciated :)
I hate hospital stays, so I totally empathise with you. Hope you're out of there real soon!
Coincidence this was the only room available? How terrifying for a 15 year old. As always, well done Oddie ! Happy Christmas and Cheers to the New Year :)
That’s why it was available
@@corrineparseghian5924 Yup! If it was me, they’d have given me another room or I’d have slept in the car. Judging by the posts made by others that Oddie showed, this entire hotel is home to supernatural activity, so maybe it wouldn’t matter what room you were in🤷🏽♀️. But still. ✌🏽
Welp, I have no desire to stay in a hotel anytime soon. This is the first video of yours that has managed to majorly creep me out. The response to the reviews about "how do you know it was a little boy?" and the scratch gave me a cold chill that I still can't shake. I'm glad I made the decision to watch this during the day. Thanks for the video Oddie...even if they creep me out, they are fascinating and I always look forward to them!
Thanks for your kind feedback my friend - much appreciated :)
I've stayed in very old hotels and ultra modern ones, and have experienced hauntings in both.
I even worked in a hotel many decades ago where a room was haunted by the spirit of a young woman who had committed suicide in that room. None of the staff liked to enter it alone and it was only given to a guest if the hotel was fully booked.
That's so sad.
Knocked it out of the park, great story, excellent editing. Thank you and happy holidays
Always look forward to your videos.....
Great yarn and I love the little surprises in the film itself. You've really stepped up your game Oddie!
Bless you :)
Just love your work. I have yet to be disappointed. Happy Holidays to all.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS, MS. PAULETTE 💕💕
You'll never be dissapointed with an Oddie video. Everyone is a work of art.
This tale was absolutely fantastic, and the narration is wonderful! I was listening so intently, as the story is very dark...but then...I nearly lost it when the words "...like when you're alone in the basement or utility room and a scene from some horror film suddenly pops into your head, causing you to haul ass upstairs..."
HAUL ASS UPSTAIRS! Dude, I literally choked on my soda because I laughed so hard and coughed at the same time. Hilarious!
Then it gets all serious again. Love it!
Thanks for your very kind feedback Amy - very much appreciated.
lol - yes I guess with my accent - "haul ass" does sound somewhat amusing :)
@@ObsoleteOddity Well, I am definitely a new fan of your channel! I love listening to your narrations while I am at work. For some reason, it helps me focus while I do the accounting work. SO glad I stumbled upon the ObsoleteOddity channel!
@@amymartin3012 Bless you for that Amy :)
As always you have done it again. I love the supernatural and this story is right now my alley. I love your videos so much, I share them with family and friends. They have fallen in love with your voice also. When I get notifications, I drop everything and get my ears ready for a treat. Thank you so much
Thanks for your kind feedback Casandra - much appreciated :)
for me that's how it happens snap shots. I think some of us are like lighthouses to the dead who are desperately seeking help. Its scary as hell the first time it happened to me I was about 8. Up until I was 5, I could see them like they were living and most kept there appearance not to scary some night I kept my eyes squeased tight my hands over them with my pillow and blankets over my head. As I got older the instances became pictures in my mind and then pain the pain of there deaths. All three of my daughter's were born with the same ability. I knew there boogie men was real because I could see and feel them there. I would ask our visitor to join me in the next room. And help them move on. Sometimes they just wanted to talk or confirme they were really dead. Strainge I know but very true. Yes my adult daughter's still see or hear them. Not sure what our purpose is but I help when I can..💜✌
If you can see them, they can see you. And isn't it strange how the gift of sight tends to go to the females in a family? My mother and my sister could see ghosts, and had experiences when no one else would. I also inherited the mediumistic tendency, but I'm physically intersexed, and as much a girl as a boy. It's all about intuition, and I believe women live more in the right side of their heads. If God is ever to be found and localized, it won't be in the sky, above the clouds, it will be in the right hemisphere of the brain, which contains the totality of all things.
True creepy story: A few years ago in my hometown there was a motel 6 which is very run down and mainly used for temporary housing from the state. The hotel is 1/4th of a mile from the expressway but nobody really stays there as far as travelers. A husband and wife from out of state were exhausted from driving and exited the e-way there but could only find one hotel, the motel 6. After checking in, they proceeded to their designated room. Upon entering they noticed a terrible smell and after a short amount of time they couldn't stand it anymore. They told the clerk who went up to investigate the smell. They discovered that underneath the mattress they had been laying on was a dead body... A woman was murdered & stuffed under the bed and nobody found her for weeks. I see this motel every time I go out to eat at any fast food restaurants because it was built behind them. Many people of power have tried motioning for its demolition including the sherriff but no luck yet. It remains open to this day but it has no sign anywhere to say what the building is.
@Robert Gardea I would love to stay there!
That reminds me in one way of a really shady Super 8 Motel I stayed at: that being, The locals may know what the place is, but people passing through aren't aware. (Finding out there's a body in your room's mattress is RIDICULOUSLY bad though. 🤢)
@@Steve_1999 freak. Lol
@@erinthesystem9608 Motels use a hollow box to set the mattress on, that's where the body was hidden... Not in the mattress. Next time you go to a motel see if you can reach under the bed, you can't because the box frame is there.
@@Steve_1999 Yes, I'm aware that such is the case. It didn't occur to me, when I wrote the above, that my loose use of language could lead to a misunderstanding of that. What I don't understand is how this distinction is relevant(?). No offense or hostility is intended here, but: Does that somehow strike you as a usable mattress-?
Sounds like The Cecil Hotel in downtown LA
I suggested Oddie do a video on the Elisa Lam story, and by extension the Cecil Hotel (which is re-opened now under the name Stay on Main). The hotel has a history unlike any other. That's the hotel Richard Ramirez, the Night Stalker, stayed in during his murder spree. It was also the sight of numerous suicides and homicides as well as, the most well known Elisa Lam case.
Christi Meyer Elisa Lam was bipolar and having a manic episode. Probably not murder.
@@CJG1419 The circumstances around how she ended up in the water tower were still bizarre. For example, how did she remove the lid alone and then, even more bizarre, how did she close it behind herself once she was in. I'm not disagreeing with you at all, I'm just saying the whole situation was rather strange. Also, if I remember correctly, there was something weird with her toxicology results. I don't know if the weird aspect had to do with how long it took them to release results, or if everything was normal and she was shown to have been taking her meds as prescribed, or if it was something else, I just remember something weird there. Regardless, I definitely didn't intend to imply she was murdered, I just meant that her whole situation was unusual at best and I would love to hear Oddies take on it, that's all.
Honestly, I would love to see Oddie make a video about the Cecil Hotel in general and that was all I was saying.
Maniac episode or not. She made it to the roof up the tower opened the Heavy outer door fell in and closed latched it behind her?
Ty for my gift. I LOVE it 🤗
Oh man I just listened to the evp clips! Some were amazing. Ty again.
People seem to always think there’s something wrong with the building but it can be the land on which they were build too. You don’t know what happened on it two or three hundred years ago. I’ve been to really old graveyards, back then they use to put the names and the persons address on their gravestone; where new apartment complexes/houses are now standing. ☺️ brilliant video .. 👏🏻
Great bed time stories. I just discovered your channel 3 days ago, great videos, keep up the work.
Richard Caine I envy you having all that Oddie content to discover and binge watch like I did so long ago. My advice is pace it out so you can fit the earlier works between his new releases. It is hard not to seriously binge though...I still go back and rewatch old ones, and I always find something I missed the first time around...sometimes the first few times. Welcome to the Oddites, a little weird perhaps, but mostly harmless...and very pleasant folks. 🖤🇨🇦
Thanks for posting this here, Oddie! I had to let my Patreon account go due to poor finances.
I've had two occasions where I encountered probably haunted hotel rooms. One time, I stayed at a hotel in Baltimore, MD. Beautiful hotel, nice view of the baseball park and street below. When it came to be bed time, I did not want to turn the lights off, because I felt something moving around in the room. I couldn't see it, but I knew it was tehre.
Another time, we were staying in NJ, and I smelled something that smelled very much like a dead alcoholic. It was really unpleasant.
Happy Holidays!

Merry Christmas my friend!
This is great! The room obviously had some strong imprints in it. So strong that these three people picked up on it, when they had no previous psychic experiences. I would think that someone or someones, were looking for help. The corpse in the landfill... so creepy... most likely a murder victim, don't you think?
Oddie! You are really growing in video talent!! I love the TV broadcasts. Best wishes, love and Merry Christmas to all!

Poor boy you must have been terrified.I was going to watch this last night ,was very tired so kept it for this morning .Thank Goodness 😱 Great video your very clever with your presentations .This one gave me the creeps maybe because it was your personal experience .Thank you for sharing 😍
Such wonderful feedback
makes the time and effort well worthwhile.
Thank you
Actually it's a reader's story not my experience :)
Thank you so much for all your posts Oddie!! It's such a pleasure listening to each and every one of them during my commute to work on the train and walking here in London. As well as sneakily putting my headphones on at work whilst working!! Which helps me concentrate funnily enough, lol (I think my manager noticed that I've been listening to your stories whilst working, heh heh). 😅😅
Keep up the great work and content!! Happy Subscriber here!! 😁

Tell your boss I've officially given you permission to watch my videos....because it's..er...research on how to multiply work load and profits....yeh.
I used to traverse around London by Tube as a little kid alone - gawd if my mum had known! (I used to stay at my older sisters flat in Chelsea during the holidays)
Thanks for this story, Oddie.
My husband and I are currently staying at another hotel down the street from this one right now. We're here for a total of seven months until our home an hour away is built. Now I'm creeped out.
P.S. I've stayed at at least two haunted hotels (Savanah, GA and Galveston, TX) and one B&B (Pasadena, CA) and have experienced the paranormal at two of these three places. I wouldn't say I'm a believer of the paranormal, but I can't explain my experience any other way.
Have fun!
Merry Christmas Oddy, and everyone. So enjoyed your last video. Peace.
I fully relate to this. I HAVE had the sense of overwhelming evil. Concidentally, to YOUR experience, I was 16 at the time. I had no visions. However, unexpectedly, my Dad passed away three days after.
I'll have to view this multiple times but can already say I enjoy all the details, like a little doll dancing on the tv screen, a clock running backwards etc. Also the carefullness with which this whole video is composed. Being at first time 8:40, quickly back to the story now!
Thanks for your kind feedback - much appreciated :)

I had a similar experience when my children were small at a Family Inn in West Virginia about 15 yrs ago. I had the feeling we were not alone and being watched. I stayed awake all night and left as soon as it was light. Upon check out I mentioned jokingly to the manager is that room haunted? Yes to my surprise he answered! A husband murdered his wife and two children in their sleep. Ten years ago, apparently only families of four can sometimes feel or see him. Lucky me! I was given my money back as long as I never pass out their address.
Vonda....how would the management have known if u ever gave out the address of this place?
@@suzannaandrea4306
WHAT?
@@suzannaandrea4306 She asked WHAT because you are rambling and making absolutely no sense. Please get some help.
I'm impressed that he answered you honestly. I'm glad he did so; most people working in hospitality today are not at liberty to be honest about such things, and although I do understand that there are reasons for this, I see it as an overall loss for human connection and something which makes life a little more dull and a tiny bit lonelier.
I love how when telling a story or a part of grim history facts,you always show pictures! so creepy but so calming at same time due to your voice! weird /love it all the same
Thank you very much for your kind feedback Angela - much appreciated :)
I can tell you from experience,their are spirits that won't leave, some want you to know what happened because they never got justice,some are evil and won't leave, the children? Some are not,children,if you get what I mean.Some will attach them selves to objects, a doll for instance,most of us ,when we see a certain doll,we will think ,eww,creepy doll,I will tell you, do not pick up the doll,
Some of us,and you know who u are,have the ability to see,and or feel these things, for those who don't believe,well nothing I,or anyone else can say to convince you.
Thank you for another great interesting story,as always,love ur animations 🤗
I deal with spirits though hypnosis and remove them. I have had some hang around inside people, sometime they are sent by God to heal organs in people can be dead relatives. Children are often scared and hang to the mothers and siblings and objects, I have had all 3. There were 5 children attached to a woman's home, it was a toy from the 1800's. They wouldn't speak to me. I had to have loved ones come and get them. Then a dark spirit in my childhood home I always felt dark evil force from a crawl space in my bedroom. Turns out it was a Native American Navajo. He followed me and my sister from a past life to this home. We were all in the same tribe.
If you listen to my Healing with Jeanette-Sister Dee you can hear me speak to them. Arch Angel Michael helps take him to the light.
Connie's will mention another Indian who took up residence inside my thyroid and destroyed it. We all knew each other in a past life. My sister speaks Navajo under hypnosis but not during everyday life.
You will probably enjoy the videos. 70% of the population has spirit attachments without knowing it.
I want to be an earthbound ghost after my own time comes. ^_^
I'm a new listener and glong through your videos. I loved this story a i will send you some of mine. Fro being very young I have experienced some terrifying things! By the way, I am from Sunderland and this pub has been called Offies for years it's a great pub. Brilliant channel, thanks Oddie👹❤.

Have always had a love and interest for stories and accounts of the paranormal and hauntings. As an outcast when young, and being alone often, I read a lot, and stories of this sort we're my preference. Though I've never seen anything of the "hard core" nature, I have been in rooms of old houses, some deserted, some not, that would make a person uneasy and cold on a warm day, and remembered today. Not being an overly brave person, my interests have been confined to reading..But the investigator is there, though not entertained. Ha Ha!! Another good productions. Look forward to more.
Keep up the good work! Happy holiday!
Thank you so much, a fantastic account of unseen terror, I know that feeling when something approaches you from behind with malicious intent, unforgettable! Ghosts can scare but when you don't see it.......... Have a blessed and peaceful Christmas dear Oddie, you and yours 🎄☕ Cheers

A modern hotel is hardly the place you'd expect a scary experience!

@@ObsoleteOddity you are very much welcome! 😊💖
@@ObsoleteOddity and I forgot to tell you thank you for this gift! You had great illustrations! 💜
Hi Oddie.
The transition of energy like this grisly one is troubling at best. I know the feeling of violent energy.
Its made me ice cold to the bone. The year 1991.
🖤
Mele Kalikimaka Oddie! Mahalo for another wonderful post! 🎄
Thanks for your kind feedback Cheryl - much appreciated :)Merry Christmas my friend!
A fascinating but frightening story. Your wonderful voice in the narrative made this story come alive for us . 😀
Many thanks for your great feedback Pamela - Much appreciated :)
Wow, Oddie. I just listened to you & your family's nightmarish experience. I've never (thank God) experienced anything negative. I've had visits from my paternal Grandmother, my maternal Grandfather, and still, after 20 years, my loving Mother-in-Law, who is with me often (I feel her next to me, smell her perfume and she always cheers me up with her warmth). My Mother, however, had a terrible experience when I was a kid. I still remember it, even though I was about 6 years old. We had a marble statue (about 12 inches tall) which sat on the rug next to the wall of the archway between our enclosed porch & living room. One night, as we were watching tv, the statue just fell on its side and broke in half. It was very odd, so my Mother immediately went over to pick up the broken statue. When she knelt down and reached for it, my dog began growling and my Mom screamed for my Father shouting: "Albert! Albert! Help me! Something is holding my arm. There are two hands gripped on my forearm!!" She was rubbing her forearm with her opposite hand and she was so freaked out. I stood still, mouth open, worried about my Mom. Whatever it was let go and she calmed down. The next day she called our Parish Priest to come over and bless the house. Nothing like that ever happened again. One other weird story was my Mother's Mother, my Nana, who was the oldest of 5 children & was born in 1915. When Nana was 3 years old, she kept asking her mother (my Great Grandmother, I know...duh), "Mommy, who is that man?" My GG shrugged it off as kids have active imaginations. However, when my Nana wouldn't stop asking about this man, my GG asked her about him. Nana said "He's kneeling right there"... (pointing toward a wall in the living room of their house) ..."he's hitting the wall with his elbows." GG asked "His elbows?" Nana replied: "He has no hands and no head." My GG asked around their neighborhood and eventually found out that a man was murdered in their house, and his head & hands were chopped off. They moved quickly after hearing about it!! I can't imagine what you went through in that hotel room. That's something you definitely never forget. Love from Philly! ❤
As usual, everything you do is terrific! Well read, and interesting graphics! THANK YOU!!
Merry Christmas to you and your's Oddie! Looking forward to the New Year and many more delicious video's!!!
Thank you Oddie for always making us feel special; from high-quality contents, reading our comments, saving us from trolls 😄 and uploading Christmas presents. Much love and respect, Merry Christmas!
Thanks for your kind feedback my friend - much appreciated :)
'uploading Christmas presents' - what a wonderful era we live in! lol
Merry Christmas :)
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you Oddie. Hope YT doesn't demonitize anything this coming year.
Thanks for your kind feedback John - much appreciated :)
Happy Christmas!
Found your channel at like 3am trying to sleep and stayed up non stop since then 100%LOVING your channel!🎉I have really specific taste centering around weird history, bios or autobiographies,& theosiphy & religion/spirituality non fiction & you nailed it!!! THANK YOU
Hey I’m happy to hear that and welcome aboard!
So glad you’re enjoying my type of content!
Oooooh Oddie! You really got your teeth into this one. Thank you Amy for sharing your story...it is definitely one that would stay with you. I have been eaten alive by things I don’t enjoy doing this past couple of months, so a trip into Oddieland was just the ticket. Now Oddie...I noticed you have branched out into the business of rubbish tips, does that include the discrete disposal of awkward to explain dead bodies? It had to be asked.
I have experienced my share of hotel room haunts over the years, and they definitely are not fun or relaxing. Great images supporting the narrative here, as always, you have the masterly touch for blending the mundane with the decidedly spooky. I want to get into Oddie’s pub and see what hides behind those drapes upstairs.
Now there are TWO more mugs I am lusting for...the bedtime stories has long been on my list for the next purchase, but now there is a limited edition...what to do, what to do.
May the holidays (whichever you may celebrate) be safe and joyful for every Oddite, and most especially for you and Odette, and your fur babies. Be well in light and love.🖤🇨🇦
I understand you're very busy at the moment Tamarra, I hope you have some rest/chill out time coming soon.
I'm always looking out for new business opportunities my friend! lol
I want to get inside Oddie's pub too - have a beer or two....and then find out what's behind those drapes :))
The bedtime mug has been an all time best-seller - has easily outsold all the other mugs. So you have excellent taste :)
Wishing Richard and yourself also a most blessed and peaceful Christmas period. Love & light!
ObsoleteOddity You are right, Ive been horribly busy embroiled in the thing I truly hate more than any other...politics, that I have to mediate.
You ARE being coy with your new business venture hmmmm.
Yep, I can try out the wares before sating my curiosity, no need to rush things...besides, you need to absorb the building’s personality before chasing around after its denizens. Deal breaker is that if there is no fireplace for story-time you can’t buy this one for home base of the cult of oddness.
I bought your icon/avatar mug because story-time didn’t exist yet, not that I mind in the least...I bought it to introduce people to your channel. Everyone asks me about my Oddie mug...and I tell them too. The moment you used that dapper man image in one of your creations I was smitten when you narrate, I can imagine you sitting in a gold brocade smoking jacket and dress pants, an ascot and leather slippers to complete the image, although you DO have a pipe, which you gesticulate with more than you actually smoke it. I suspect it is a prop, and you don’t ever light it, but it’s a pleasing visual. I’m not surprised it is your best seller. The Santa (to whom the dyslexic Satanist sold his soul) is very sweet, but he is seasonal, but he is a limited edition but I suspect it will still be bedtime-stories, I just can’t resist.
Thank you Oddie, I do wish you and your Beloved all the best of the Season, and the year to come. Richard and I appreciate your well-wishing, and gratefully accept that which you desire for us. I WILL grab some time from another dimension and reply to your last message...and that will be a pure pleasure.🍻🖤🇨🇦
@@tamarrajames3590 Mediating politics would be my worst nightmare Tamarra, so you have my commiserations :)
I do enjoy absorbing an old building's personality, especially one that serves amber nectar, with which to contemplate one's surroundings with increasing pleasure. lol
Well bless you for your purchase my friend, the icon mug is also popular; although the 'Bedtime Stories' mug has been out for quite a while now, and is available. Maybe you didn't see it. Here's the link: www.zazzle.com/oddies_historical_features_bedtime_stories_mug-168501533183317502
I do like your imagination Tamarra, such refined sensibilities m'dear. The pipe is indeed a prop at the moment, but I've decided that when I'm on the last innings, I shall fill it with various pleasant combustibles - as it won't matter much at that stage :)
"The Santa (to whom the dyslexic Satanist sold his soul)" ...Ha Ha!
There's no hurry to respond, at your your leisure my friend. I have the day off today, and instead of sitting in front of a computer, I will jump in the old faithful jalopy and follow where it takes me. Wishing you both the very best, as always xx
Never a disappointment watching your channel and listening to your awesome narrations. Love the visuals 💕
Thanks for your very kind feedback Rhonda, I appreciate it :)
Happy Holidays dear Oddie! 🎄 💀 ❄️ hope you have a wonderful Christmas (and your little dog too ☺️
Thanks for your kind feedback my friend - much appreciated :)
Happy Christmas!
Happy Holidays from Ohio, USA! Thanks for sharing that spooky video. I do not want to ever stay in a haunted hotel.
Merry Christmas Oddie and fan’s
Loved the creepy story and seeing the 60/70’s photos there didn’t seem to have matching colours which made me giggle. 🌲🎁
Thanks for your kind feedback my friend - much appreciated :)
Happy Christmas!
Thank you for what you do!! also, the fact that you ❤ almost all your comments says a lot, I always notice that most utubers only ❤ popular people's accounts comments, but you take the time to do all nice comments. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND EFFORT
Thanks for your very kind feedback, I appreciate it :)
We once stayed in a hotel room in one of our many random travels when I was a child. I can't remember now which particular trip this was, or even what state we were in at the time, but my little sister complained the next morning that she had not gotten any sleep because the ghosts of soldiers kept coming up and talking to her the whole night. As we were leaving the next morning, we noticed a civil war museum next door. We still wonder if it was a coincidence, or if some of the ghosts attached to the artifacts got lonely and went looking for someone to talk to.
Maybe your little sister is a medium. Anything else happen to her?
Okay, you've got me hooked, will be joining your Paetreon team next week! You're videos are of the highest class, and your articulation is spot on! I understand the need for Paetreon, true crime chan's are becoming de-monitized at an alarming rate. Paetreon is also a way to support creators, like watching Public Television, cameras, lights, computer software is expensive. In order to get the quality we are getting, what's a few bucks in comparison? I am amazed you offer as little as $1 tiers! Looking forward to your videos on Paetreon as well as TH-cam. Love, peace, and Namaste!
Thank you so very much Emily, very kind of
you. TH-cam is very sensitive about depicting
crime cases, true stories which involve reality or nearly anything
outside of fluffy kitten compilations, Most of the historical
features will be on Patreon from now on; but I'll still be uploading
them occasional here...plus other stuff like my excursions and
explorations, etc. Check out my Patreon site and become a subscriber
- there are lots of fascinating vintage cases featured there...and
many more to come! I don't have tier systems on my Patreon site, I want to allow viewers to decide how much they wish to pledge, so that people of all incomes can enjoy the same access :)
@@ObsoleteOddity Definitely will do, my ship comes in on Wednesday, will be proud to be a part of the group!
