This is where I come forward with my story. My son aged 20 passed away on April 15th last year (my birthday) in a motorcycle accident. Later that day I was using my phone to watch some old bedtime stories videos on TH-cam (a strange kind of coping mechanism I know). I put my phone down on the arm of the chair and stood up and looked down (although it wasn't a phone call I had I still think it was my son trying to contact me in some way). The screen started to scroll down on it's own and at a frantic pace and stopped at the James Dean video about his death from road accident in his car 'little bastard' on this channel. I looked at my girlfriend, she'd seen it too so I wasn't imagining it. 10 minutes later his picture fell off the sideboard on to the floor. She was spooked but I kind of felt easy about him coming to see me. If by some strange way you see this Christopher, I think of you every day. I love you son. Dad.
I think your son was just telling you he’s in a better place. I’m sorry for your loss.
Sorry for your loss I'm sure it was hes way of checking in with you to make sure you were doing ok. It gives me hope ill see my loved ones on the other side seeing your story. Thank you for sharing it.
Terribly sorry for your pain. I do believe your son was telling you he was ok
May your son rest in paradise 🙏🏼
Sorry for your loss,
I have had a few things similar happen in the past when someone passes away i always feel like its just them trying to show you they are okay and they are still there, i also will say they always seem to be somewhere where it just seems wonderful and beautiful and that they are really happy and i feel like we will see them again one day.
At an extremely stressful time in my life after a sudden job loss I worked at a bank call center to try to support my wife and family. It was low-paying but it was a desperate time. One evening a call came in with no information populating the screen. The man on the phone didn't seem to have an issue to address.
While I was looking for a way to get his info, he just spoke of how "There are times in life when things look so hopeless but we come out the other end and all is okay after all. You have to stay focused on the things that really matter, not the big house and new cars."
The more I heard, the more I thought the man sounded just like my brother who had died 4 years earlier. Same voice. At the end of the call he said, "Well, I should be going. Take care, Johnny!" Nobody but my parents and siblings ever called me "Johnny". I hadn't given the man my name because at that job we only used operator ID numbers.
At the end of the call I went unavailable for a few minutes to gather myself. Yes, I admit it, I was in some level of shock. I tried everything I could to get the number that call had come from, but there just wasn't anything there.
This experience has stayed with me for many years, and it was not just my imagination, but I was under an enormous amount of stress at that time.
Yes, everything worked out fine in the end with a new job.
I'm glad you're doing better. ❤
Weird and heart warming so nice of your bro to call, I think it would have brought a tear to my eye.
@@chatteyj Yeah. It’s sweet.
That’s unsettling, but it sounds like some force, whatever you believe it, really wanted to help you however it could. I’m glad everything worked out okay
Really good story I'm glad you posted this. It's almost like a version of It's a Wonderful Life except you weren't suicidal (but still enormous stress) and didn't see the other person like George Bailey saw his guardian angel in the movie. And it did work out.
My mother called me after she passed away. I know without a doubt it was her. The ringing of the phone was clear as a bell when it woke me up. When I answered hello, I heard her voice on the line. She called me by a nickname she gave me when I was a little boy. I haven’t heard that nickname in more than 30 years. I was overcome with emotions, equal parts sadness and joy. I know she is waiting on the other side with my father. I look forward to being with them again. That thought brings me peace.
Can u tell me is it really true u received that call ? I want to believe u bro.
I imagine you must be very used to people dismissing your story as an episode of sleep paralysis or similar
@@phoenixboy8279 yes it is absolutely true. I have no motivation to lie about something like that, nor would I even if I had.
This is something so miraculous and heartwarming. I mean did this incident convince u that there is an afterlife?
I recall that my mum told me that my late grandma love to open the shoe rack to arrange the shoes inside. Few days after her death she and my uncle witnessed the shoe rack opening by itself. My uncle freaked out and left but my mum felt emotional and joy.
@@phoenixboy8279 that too is a nice story and yes I do believe in an afterlife. The phone call from my mother convinced me of it.
Several years ago an old babysitter that used to watch my sister and I lived alone. One afternoon she had a stroke and passed out on the floor of her home. She was completely unable to call for help or move at all. She also had no life alert necklace or anything like that.
Somehow a call was made to 911 from her home, and I think a voice said “help” before hanging up. This strange call got paramedics to her in time, saving her life and much of her physical ability. She is still alive and in her late 90s, and she says the caller was her guardian angel.
I’m more agnostic myself, but I believe her.
There's this story of a little girl who was at home with her mum who fell on the floor and the girl had managed to make an emergency call prompted by a huge " funny man" who kept urging her to dial the number and keep staying on the phone.
The actual conversation was being shown and one can hear the girl talking about the " funny man" who was looking after her.
Her mum had some kind of fit and was ok because she had received help in time. It was so amazing to watch this. I hope you can find it.🤗
Now this was something my family experienced back then. After my Aunt passed away while still pregnant with her twins, her husband and my Grandma received a call from her number but when they answer it the call cuts off. In the midnight my Aunt's phone will ring througout for few minutes then turn off. It all stopped when we visited her grave, offered prayers and told her that she don't need to be worried because we'll be ok. She can take a rest now. It was a sad moment for our family but I hope she's in a better place now.
Wow, that is a very special experience...
Prayers to you and yours.
Now, that's just creepy...
* 69 !
I’m sorry for your loss
Amen
I have a story like this. My husband and I were at his grandma's house one night. His grandpa had recently died, and his great aunt was visiting from out of state. His grandma needed breathing meds but wasn't taking them, and my husband kept trying to get her to. Eventually she started coughing and wheezing. So his great aunt said, "you better take your meds now, or your husband is going to call and yell at you." Right at that moment, the great aunt's phone started ringing in the other room. It was a track phone she only used when traveling, so no one had the number. Also, it was 8 at night which was 10 where she lived - too late for telemarketers. They didn't get to the phone in time, but when they saw the missed call, it was a restricted number. His grandma quickly ran to take her meds after that!
My late brother called his fiancé on their anniversary. It only happened the one time, but she still feels his presence around their home. Even has some unexplainable photographs.
@dolphins cry That's exactly what I was gonna ask👌🏽....
Yeah there's certainly something after death... the world we live in is pretty amazing.
My late mom who recently passed away spoke to me once a month or two ago. It was in a dream but she told me something only she would know and I had forgotten
@@SPIKE0-0-0 No response means they are lying. People make up shit out of boredom or to troll.
@@kostantinosvlasakakis4106 Seeing someone in a dream is way different than getting an actual call in real life.
I had a weird phone call years ago that I still wonder about. It was the mid-80s and I was home from college for the summer. The phone rang, I answered it and I noticed immediately that the line was crackling with static. The female voice (presumably an operator) asked me if I would accept a collect call. I asked from whom and before the operator could answer, an older lady came on the line and in an excited sounding voice, asked "Is that Michael?" I didn't recognize her voice, but I was startled that she knew my name and I asked "Who is this?" In response, the older lady just started babbling incoherent words and the call ended abruptly, almost like it faded out rather than being disconnected. One of the strangest things I've ever personally experienced.
Yikes!!
she wanted too say hi luv
Must have been an operator, AND caller, from outside this plane of existence. :). I hope someday you find out who she was as she really wanted to talk to you.
I have had two very bizarre phone calls, one of which I still have on a dictaphone tape. The first one was from a very elderly woman (or a very young child) announcing that (a name given) was dead. The second was a very hoarse and strangled voice reciting a string of numbers. They could have been prank calls. The numerical recital is something that has been associated with MIBs in the past but I doubt that is what it was.
Intriguing.
I find it funny that you can't escape telemarketers phone calls even when you're already dead.
Hello, we are trying to reach you about your graves extended warranty 😂😂
Reminds me of that episode of South Park where Ike sees dead people.
"BILLY MAYS HERE WITH ANOTHER EXCITING OFFER!"
"Go away, Billy Mays!"
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Haahahahahahahaahhaaaa!!!
What do the cool kids say nowadays? "I'm dead"? LMAO
U can thats why they call it cold calling cus u already cold when they call u
"Although she had not been expecting a call, her first instinct was to answer it." The the days of wall phones, *EVERYONE'S* first instinct was to answer it when it rang!
Yes. The days before Caller ID and telemarketing gone mad.
ahh good times when a phone call was important
I thought the same thing haha
The vinyl siding salesman was the best...
this is what you call tact...clever word play from an older wiser generation, to a less appreciative gen on how things used to be.if the phone rang more than twice in one day..;then it was a busy day..!
I remember 2 similar instances: First, my uncle passed in 1996 and my mom was heartbroken over the loss of her big brother. She kept saying she wanted to talk to him one more time. After the funeral, our phone rang and she picked. After a few seconds she dropped the phone and started shaking. I picked it up and heard nothing but static. She said her brother was on the other line and said "Hey lil sis."
A few years later, my dad had the landline phone cut off because the bill was high due to the fact of having 3 teenage boys. We had gotten use to having no phone and one Friday night it rang. My middle brother was excited about the phone being cut back on and grabbed the phone first. We all listened as a woman said "When your father gets home, tell him to go to the hospital. His sister Ollie just passed." After that, the phone went dead. My dad came home about 15 minutes later and my mom told him what happened. He reassured us that he didn't have the phone cut on. He went to the neighbors house and used their phone. He came back and told us we had to go to the hospital because Ollie did pass away. Because we didn't have a phone, no family member could reach out to us. My pops took it pretty hard because he doesn't believe in the paranormal.
I think your uncle just wanted to let your mom, his little sister, he was in a better place. As to the woman, I have no clue. Either way it’s sweet.
Did that incident change his mind?
No ma'am but a bad tornado warning storm hit soon afterwards and my mom thought our small home wasn't safe due to the high winds. She made the decision to pack us up and drive to our grandma's house. My dad said it was a bad plan and they argued until he said "We'll go if God gives ME a sign!" Hand on the Bible, as soon as he finished the sentence, our kitchen and living room windows shattered. He grabbed the keys and said lets go 😂
@@judaz3000 oh boy yea pretty sure that'd convince anyone to leave. Glad you guys made it out safe
My choir teacher in high school had a similar experience. He got a phone call in the middle of the night of an old family friend in another state, asking him in a worried and hushed voice to call the police for help, before hanging up. When he called back, the family friend picked up and said everything was fine, and that she hadn't called just now. Needless to say, my choir teacher was spooked.
i agrey
😬
I remember reading stories on a website years ago regarding this subject. Many people had written in claiming something similar. The "relatives" voices were recognizable, but there was always something off about it, almost robotic. Makes me wonder if they were used as guinea pigs to test some sort of voice duplicating technology.
Your teacher is both, scared to get a real job and a liar.
@@ZDiddy7777 Unexpected savagery.
My father in law told me of a story. About 35 years ago, he was working a security shift in Glasgow and at exactly 5 minutes past 9 at night, he recieved a message on his radio. He answered it and there was a womans voice saying "I'm not ready, I'm not ready, god have mercy on me!"
Perplexed he asked her to repeat it but he recieved no answer. When he went home at about 3 am. His wife told him that her mother had just past away that night. He asked what time she said 5 minutes past 9 exactly.
He is still shaken by that.
Scares me just thinking about it.
I heard a similar story I believe to be true..........Yes I believe this stuff............Blessings.............
I hope that prompted him to get ready. It's a good lesson for all of us.
My grandfather used to work in a factory, and at the end of his shift, when the factory was closed, he was walking down the stairs from a raised office and passed someone walking the opposite way
Realising he didn't know him, he ran back up to the office
But there was nobody there
My wife worked at a healthcare call center, and they have the call I'm about to relate recorded.
She spoke to an elderly woman who while on the phone had a nasty fall.
A little girl's voice came on, and when she asked for the woman again, the girl only said "I'm here to help."
The woman came back on shortly and said sorry, and it was a really close call.
When asked she was a bit confused - because she stated that she lives alone.
Her and her coworkers played and replayed the phone call for each other - everyone skeptical hears it and then agrees it was something otherworldly.
TV
@@michaellimbeck5671 I've heard a TV through a phone plenty of times. It doesn't sound like someone picked up the phone, no matter how loud it is
Guardian Angel? Or did she have a granddaughter? Interesting
@@QigongQi she said she lived alone.i guess we'll never know. I will say it definitely is the first time I've ever heard of a personal supernatural encounter being caught on tape in the wild (not by reality tv chasers, etc)
@@plasmarob741 Sounds like a guardian spirit. Guardian spirits can take various forms and are benevolent in nature, often making sure that the places they loved in life are still enjoyed and that the people they look over are safe and healthy. At least that’s my theory.
I remember my Aunt received a phone call from an elderly neighbor, who just wanted to tell her how much she appreciated all the love and caring she had shown her over the years. My aunt had just taken some cookies out of the oven before answering the phone. Seeing that the cookies were now cool and feeling that the elderly neighbor was needing some company she headed down the street, cookies in hand. As she approached the neighbors house there was an ambulance and a deputy sheriffs car. She explained to the deputy that she was a friend of the neighbor and that she had just spoken to her on the phone. She asked if the elderly woman was ok. She said the Deputy just looked at her funny and said, Mam, this woman has been dead for hours. Apparently, another neighbor had seen the elderly woman sitting in a chair in her backyard earlier in the day and had called the Sheriff's Office (Pre-911 days) because she didn't look right. She called again about an hour later to say she was not responding to questions if she was ok, and that's when the deputy was sent, shortly followed by an ambulance. My aunt was a very spiritual woman and took for what it was and said she was glad she got the call.
Things like this really make you wonder what's actually going on, high strangeness indeed
If it really is them then we're in the hell are they calling from?!

This happened to me. you can believe it or not, but it happened and I have to live with the knowledge that this sort of shit is real every single day. I was very close with my first cousin, but he had moved away to go to school and we didn’t get to see each other for an entire school year. He was coming back to our hometown during break and is coming to pick me up.
At 6:30 pm I got a phone call from an unknown number, that is to say it just said unknown and didn’t have a number attached that I could see and I answered it. I could just barely make out his voice, it had a watery almost distant sound to it. Almost like the vocal filter on TikTok that people use when they imitate eight-year-olds. But not quite exactly like that.
He said my name, then he told me he missed me, and he couldn’t wait to see me again. I laughed and told him he would be here soon and I couldn’t wait to see him either but then I just heard a distant “bye man “ and the call disconnected. I could not call back as we was no number to call back and just said unknown on call log. These were old phones.
It was at least another hour before the phone call started to our house from his family telling our family that on his way home, witness statements giving the exact time as 6:05 he had been hit and killed on a notoriously dangerous highway. (Rt. 50 in WV if anyone knows) A water truck with a full load coming downhill around a relatively blind turn as he tried to pull out and he got slammed into and instantly killed. That phone call came close to a half hour after he was dead.
Omg!! 🥺😬😭
I do believe you. When you heard, "bye man" I got tears 😢 in my eyes.
Damn bro I believe you fully that's crazy
Its a electric universe alright, and our souls a much more battery than our bodies.
Hi, I would love to know more about this story. Do you remember the date of the accident?
My dead friend called me exactly one year after he died. I still had him programmed in my phone. His number was still tied to his old phone. My phone rang and it was his name. I knew his phone was dead in a box in my garage. I answered and could make out a disembodied voice saying I’m sorry I love y’all. He killed himself a year earlier. I ran to the garage and found the box with his memorabilia. The phone was not only dead but we didn’t even have a charger for that older style phone. I have no doubt it was Jason Wayne Bennett RIP turtle
PS his number was not yet given to another person’s phone. He was on a large account and his aunt had kept the bill up so jays old phone was still active. Just dead in a box full of other stuff in my garage. That phone was dead
My father died when I was six. My mother told me growing up that she once had a dream that felt very real and was the two talking and getting a final chance to say goodbye. Growing up, I thought it was probably just a dream induced by a grieving mind, but I always wondered if it might be something more. My paternal grandmother stepped up and became the second parent my father should have been. Just a few years ago, she passed away and I was devastated. A couple weeks later, I had a dream that would be seared into my mind forever. It was me and my grandmother; we didn't talk, there were no tears, but there was this powerful sensation of peace and tranquility. Obviously, the loss still hurts, but that dream was the turning point for my grief. Now looking at it with hindsight, what are the odds that both I and my mother received powerful dreams of lost ones, having one last chance to say goodbye, and finding healing in them? I am a skeptic in most things, but these two dreams really make me wonder.
Had a similiar experince as a teenager, my dad died in belgrade duing US bombing one night in late 2009 i got a weird phone call when i was out with some friends, it was around 2.30 am and i didn't know the caller, i picked up after looking at the caller ID and thought that's weird no one ever calls me, when i picked up i was hearing a man in pain or someone begging for help. the weird thing is the voice sounded familair yet distorted somehow like it was under water or the signal was cutting off, i told my mom and others but the call delelted his ID after i tried calling back after he hang up. i wanna say i lived in Serbia, and phone calls like that did not happen as in the US no one used voice changers or anything like that. most bizarre thing i have experinced ever. it was raining and thunder as well on the night i will never forget that 40 second phone call.
That sounds horrifying. I'm sorry to hear you had that experience.
I’ve listened to every bedtime stories program, and I think this one is absolutely the best. The pacing of each story line is tense and engaging. Kudos to everyone involved in this show. This program nails it!
Idk about the best but too 10 for sure
Totally agree!
Give a listen to mrballen. His content is less bedtime focused, but I've literally listened for hours straight while driving or doing chores.
As freaky, unnerving & haunting as these stories are they also offer beautiful solace, vast heartfelt reassurances & a kind of comforting closure, further proof that there truly is a life after death & that our loved ones can reach out from the other side (& therein lies this heartwarming relief). Another great & fascinating episode from Bedtime Stories.
I don't find comfort in the idea that my spirit is going to roam the earth forever after I die.
@@FrankieTeardrop1998 Who says it has to be the earth, it could be a different realm of existence we could never imagine while we are here.
For all our advances in understanding the universe and it's dimensions, there are still so many things we do not know about it.
It would be far more foolish to assume we know everything than assume we probably don't know a lot.
This is fiction. Amazing how you take this seriously.
It doesn't prove there is life after death just proves that limbo exists
@@rob5032 Ofcourse, and you obviously know everything there is to know about the nature of reality and existence.
I'm surprised you guys didn't mention the case of the man who died in a train wreck but then made dozens of calls to family up until the time when responders discovered his body, but they never found his phone.
The channel Barely Sociable covered it.
What's the title? I'd like to watch that
@@adamswindells1 the name of the gentleman that he was speaking about was Charles E. Peck. I am sure you can look it up by that.
Reminds me of the video of people coming to help a woman and her baby trapped in their car in a river and heard her calling g out for help
But the mother had been dead for hours, and the baby was unconscious
I've seen the video and it speaks for itself
The Peck story was explained by the phone being damaged in the crash.
My phone has randomly called people after just having a cracked screen.
When my mom passed in 2019, my dad told me that the doorbell kept ringing. He said it would happen a few times a week, mid-morning thru late afternoon. "You think it might be mama?" It made me think about the stories my mom used to tell me about her childhood. Her and my dad lived 3 houses down from each other so she would stop by after church on Sundays to play ringing the doorbell until someone answered... Trying to be logical though, I advised him to replace the doorbell, since it was the original one from when they bought the house in 1976, but the ringing just randomly stopped. 😳 My dad now has a Ring doorbell installed but I wish he had had it then, when the ringing was active. I was so curious... 🤔
I had a similar experience when my father passed away. I was alone in his apartment, sorting through his things, and I heard the doorbell ring. I went to the door, and no one was there. I went back and kept sorting, and I was interrupted several more times by the doorbell ringing. Every time I would go to the door and find no one. I thought it might be some kids playing a prank, but the area outside the apartment door was a hall where it would be difficult to hide unless you had access to another apartment you could run into, and other people would have heard you closing the apartment door. The doors were big and heavy, and rattled when you shut them. You could hear and feel it whenever someone in the hall closed their front door. At one point I checked the hall carefully, went back in, and the doorbell rang again as I started walking away.
I started to think to myself, just supposing it was a message from my father, what was the message trying to say? I had been sorting through his books to decide what to give away and what to keep, and it occurred to me he had been really protective of some of his books, especially SF and first editions. I thought "okay, just hypothetically supposing it IS him, maybe he wants me to slow down and reconsider before giving away some of his books?" I stopped sorting the books for the day, and whether it was a coincidence or not, I didn't hear the doorbell ring again after that.
It might have been your mom checking up on her husband, your dad. I want to believe that ghosts will attempt to contact love ones after their passing in order to reassure them that they are in a good (or better) place as a way of not causing them too much grief and anxiety over their passing. I heard of phantom calls before but your remark is a bit strange. Although one night I thought I heard knocking at my front door. It was in the middle of the night as well which startled me from sleep. Next morning I mentioned it to my dad and he decided to get a Ring doorbell in order to keep an eye out for any mysterious knocking and check on any packages arriving. I forgot about it but reading your comment reminded me of it.
My brother died and that night got a call from him. He mumbled a lot in real life so when I heard him talk all I could make out was the mumbling and a “I love you” at the end
Hi, did you try to trace the call?
My dad experienced this, when my grandfather passed, when I was still a small boy myself (and I was soundly sleeping through all this) in the mid 90s. Grandpa had taken ill, and had been admitted to the hospital. He wasn't getting any better, and then he got hit by a stroke. He'd had one just months before. Not a good sign. As my dad told me, he was on edge from the moment he'd been informed of it and was just waiting for a call informing him that the worst had happened.
A couple days later, middle of the night, the call comes. My dad got up to answer the phone, but it had stopped ringing shortly before he got to it. This is where things get a bit odd. Our phone had a callback button. He pressed it, but no one picked up. He figured that, perhaps that number did not accept incoming calls. So, he went back to bed. Thinking that, if it was the hospital, they would call him back. And indeed, something like 20-30 minutes later, there came another call. As he feared, it was the hospital, and they informed my dad that grandpa had just passed.
My dad woke my mom, let her know, and left for the hospital.
In the morning, my dad was back home, and something was rubbing him the wrong way. When talking to the staff, they'd told him the cause of death, the time, and so on.
You can probably guess, but indeed, the time roughly matched that first call that had woken my dad up.
Now we actually had a little device, which would keep track of call history. My mom and dad got it to keep track of any missed calls during the day when everyone was out.
The number that had called first that night? It belonged to my grandpa. He lived alone, and besides himself, only my dad had keys to the place. So there was no one who could be making that call.
Now of course, he could be making things up. But he really has no reason too, and he usually does not enjoy talking about any paranormal topics (despite having had a few unusual experiences, that I know of). I'd actually forgotten all about this, until watching this episode. I do wonder how common this phenomena is, judging by the other comments. In my late teens, I'd listen to some paranormal podcasts and this would pop up quite a bit, amongst listener stories. (Thought not remotely close to the typical spooks like poltergeist activity or shadow people).
Cool story :) Could this had been a telephone glitch?
My step dads mother passed away never having gone to the movies or a drive in. After she passed, he received a text from her number saying "I'm at the cinema".
I guess the number tried to call him aswell but he was to frightened to answer.
Sure man. You are just high.
@@thedarksideoftheforce6658 I mean, you're not wrong

@@thedarksideoftheforce6658 so negative. Just take these comments with a grain of salt. Why are you even on these kinds of channels?
The description about static voices is interesting. Although not via telephone, the day after my Grandad died in 1994 I was due to take an mechanical exam at college. I called out to my Dad who was upstairs and in response I heard speech in front of me. It sounded distorted-like when the radio isn’t properly tuned in. I called out to my Dad again and he replied from upstairs, so it wasn’t him that had made the noise. To this day I don’t know what it was. Whatever it was, it was a real physical noise.

In early 2006 my sister received a text message that contained a picture of our mother's corpse laying in her coffin. She'd been killed just a few months earlier.
The text came from our dad's phone, which was in the kitchen drawer with no battery OR sims card.
We were tormented the whole time we lived in that house, but that was the lowest blow.
Any other odd events happen? Did you try calling the number that sent the text?
Jesus..
Damn that's awful
Who’s to say it wasn’t your mother herself who sent you that? It seems unlikely but there’s been many WEIRD things that people have supposedly done from beyond the grave.
@@fmar.8311 why would they call a phone that didn’t have a battery or SIM card in it????
This actually happened to me. Family friend, Stan Lawrence passed. Before he passed, he was in the hospital for a while. He called and talked to my gramma regularly. I answered the phone numerous times when he'd call, and it was always the same raspy, phlegmy, voice asking "Is Millie there?" Or "Can I speak with Mildred?" Anyway..... Stanley passed away. And 2 days later, phone rings, I answer it, and I was young, 12 or 13, didn't put 2&2 together when I heard "Is Millie there?" in that raspy voice. I simply hollered "Gramma, phone, its Stan Lawrence." She came and grabbed the phone, and she said all she heard was some raspy breathing and then it went dead. She asked me who it was, I told her 100% it was Stanley. She said he'd passed 2 days ago. 😳 I remembered that now. It was crazy. It was definitely, undoubtedly, 1 million % Stan Lawrence. I answered it. It was scary, and weird. I have no idea how it happened. All I know is that it definitely happened. Just 1 of those weird things that happen in this world I suppose.
Sounded like him doesnt mean it really was him, just sayn, could be something impersonating him, something we might not want to find out about.
My brother commuted suicide in 97' when I was 8. A few weeks later my mother picked me up from the sitter and when we got home she checked the answering machine (voicemail on an actual landline). My brothers voice was on there. It sounded as though he was so far away or under water. We just stood there in shocked silence staring at the machine.
Omg yikes
That's so scary and my condolences to you.
My dad lived in a haunted house in Folsom, CA. My room was an addition to the original house. There was a ghost called The Coalman who was in that part of the house. My dad's friend took a shower in my bathroom once when I was not there visiting. He wiped the mirror off to shave and saw a black face with glowing red eyes. He never went into that part of the house again.
One night my dad had a few people over while I was visiting and one of them had heard the house was haunted and wanted to see something. She was sitting by a window when something knocked her down and when she lifted up her shirt she had 3 red stripes across her side.
That same night the previous tenant of the house called on the phone. She had been dead for decades. I got to talk to her. I was like 8 or 9 at the time and all I heard was some breathing and distorted background sounds. I was like NOPE and gave the phone back to my dad.
My dad later told me that the good ghost, the one that called on the phone could only protect the original part of the house from when she lived there. Since my room was an addition she wasn't able to protect there.
I never did like sleeping in that room and opted to sleep on the couch or in my dad's room.
My dad did get someone to come by and cleanse the house just before he moved out. Since then the house has been demolished.
Omg, you should really write down all the experience and post them somewhere. Fascinating!
@@texastea5686 I don't remember much because I was around 7 at the time but my dad used to remember lots of things that went on before his mind started slipping and he now has trouble with what happened and didn't happen.
My sisters friend passed away in a car crash when she was away on vacation back in the 80’s. Then my sister had a dream that her friend called her and told her that she was alright. When my sister woke up she had the phone handset in her hand.
Oddly enough this happened to my mom. She claims that my paternal grandmother called her after her death saying she should tell my father that everything was going to be okay.
Love you, Grandma Betty!
One of my friends mom claims she gets a phone call from her mother every year on Halloween. In our culture, Halloween is known as Día de los muertos, because that’s the day when the land of the living and the land of the dead are closest together and the dead can walk amongst the living for a night
Thats so interesting. Ive always thought during the "witching hours" the veil between the two worlds was thin enough for us to see and hear them.
There's always a friend of a friend who's says stuff like that in Mexican culture. No way she gets a call every year.
Alot of cutlures believe that you're not the only one
That's very interesting. Has your mother ever asked her mother where she is?
Spirit World
The postmortal spirit world is a place where the spirits of those who have died live before the Resurrection. The spirit world consists of paradise, where the righteous dwell, and spirit prison, where those who were wicked in mortality dwell.
PRESIDENT BRIGHAM YOUNG TAUGHT THAT THE POSTMORTAL SPIRIT WORLD IS ON THE EARTH, AROUND US (see Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Brigham Young [1997], 279).
Spirit beings have the same bodily form as mortals except that the spirit body is in perfect form (see Ether 3:16). Spirits carry with them from earth their attitudes of devotion or antagonism toward things of righteousness (see Alma 34:34). They have the same appetites and desires that they had when they lived on earth. All spirits are in adult form. They were adults before their mortal existence, and they are in adult form after death, even if they die as infants or children (see Teachings of Presidents of the Church: Joseph F. Smith [1998], 131-32).
The prophet Alma in the Book of Mormon taught about two divisions or states in the spirit world.
Paradise. According to the prophet Alma, the righteous spirits rest from earthly care and sorrow. Nevertheless, they are occupied in doing the work of the Lord. President Joseph F. Smith saw in a vision that immediately after Jesus Christ was crucified, He visited the righteous in the spirit world. He appointed messengers, gave them power and authority, and commissioned them to “carry the light of the gospel to them that were in darkness, even to all the spirits of men” (Doctrine and Covenants 138:30).
The Church is organized in the spirit world, and priesthood holders continue their responsibilities there (see Doctrine and Covenants 138:30). President Wilford Woodruff taught: “The same Priesthood exists on the other side of the veil. … Every Apostle, every Seventy, every Elder, etc., who has died in the faith as soon as he passes to the other side of the veil, enters into the work of the ministry” (Deseret News, Jan. 25, 1882, 818).
Family relationships are also important. President Jedediah M. Grant, a counselor to Brigham Young, saw the spirit world and described to Heber C. Kimball the organization that exists there:
“He said that the people he there saw were organized in family capacities. … He said, ‘When I looked at families, there was a deficiency in some, … for I saw families that would not be permitted to come and dwell together, because they had not honored their calling here’” (Deseret News, Dec. 10, 1856, 316-17).
Spirit Prison. The Apostle Peter referred to the postmortal spirit world as a prison, which it is for some (see 1 Peter 3:18-20). In the spirit prison are the spirits of those who have not yet received the gospel of Jesus Christ. These spirits have agency and may be enticed by both good and evil. The spirits may progress as they learn gospel principles and live in accordance with them. The spirits in paradise can teach the spirits in prison (see Doctrine and Covenants 138). If they accept the gospel and the ordinances performed for them in the temples, they may leave the spirit prison and dwell in paradise.
Also in the spirit prison are those who rejected the gospel after it was preached to them either on earth or in the spirit prison. These spirits suffer in a condition known as hell. They have removed themselves from the mercy of Jesus Christ, who said, “Behold, I, God, have suffered these things for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent; but if they would not repent they must suffer even as I; which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit” (Doctrine and Covenants 19:16-18). After suffering for their sins, they will be allowed, through the Atonement of Jesus Christ, to inherit the lowest degree of glory, which is the Telestial kingdom.
My daughter bought a house where the 90 year old lady had gone into a care home, where she died shortly after. Near the front door was a small room with a seat and telephone where the old lady used to sit and chat on the phone. There was a bell on the outside of the room so that she could hear the phone ring.
After my daughter moved in the external bell would give a couple of rings even though the phone had been disconnected and taken out. I myself heard it on more than one occasion, my daughter used to say ‘ that’s just Elsie trying to get through,’ it eventually stopped but my daughter has left the bell over the doorway and says she will never remove it, personally, I would have taken it down and binned it. Can you imagine laying in bed in the early hours and the bell rings!😱
My grandmother told me she received a call from a young man that had passed away several years prior.
Long story short he asked my grandmother to tell his parents he was ready to be picked up. My grandmother called the number he gave her and was informed by his parents their son had died several years ago and since then they had been getting similar calls on the anniversary.
Edit: does anyone want the long version?
Tell her to record it damnit!!
@@Barthaneous34 sadly she is passed. She got that call decades ago after my grandfather transferred from git-mo to NAS Jax.
This is so heartbreaking! The poor parents.
@@lukelliott1 from what I remember my grandmother told me they said they took it as him reaching out to tell them he still loved them.
All of these comments and nobody asked about the long version. I would like to hear it.
There's some really creepy voice-mails from weird numbers out there too!! Great video 😊
Yep. Usually the same thing as this, only on a voicemail or answering machine as opposed to answering the phone.
I’ll usually get some senile old person calling me once a year, usually they’ll think they’re talking to some random friend. It’s always interesting listening to those voicemails.
@@ryanthompson2893 There's some really funny lists on Bored Panda of people texting the wrong number and those people messing with em! 🤣
But it is weird to get a small glimpse into someone else's life, especially if it's like 180° different than yours.
Yeah I've had that before. It was from an usual number and the message sounded almost like it was from under water, and then there was a loud screeching/screaming. It terrified seven colours of sh!t out of me.
When I was in middle school back in 2000, I had a friend who lived in a house that had been built in the early 1900’s. He relayed to me some of the weird things that would happen:
-one house phone, a large boxy rotary phone that hung from a wall, would sometimes be found in the morning with the earpiece dangling off the hook.
-one of the ground floor toilets, again an older antique type with a pull chain, would sometimes flush itself at night.
-the upstairs shutters liked to be open.
-their phone bill would sometimes contain 4-digit numbers which had long since been disconnected.
I spent the night once and it was a good time. His room was a fully furnished basement and we ended up playing goldeneye until it was late. I didn’t experience anything but, I’ll tell you what, that pull chain toilet took a lot of effort to flush.
Yikes!! Thanks for sharing!
Always great to get a “call” from Bedtime Stories.
You "got a call" from Bedtime Stories 2 weeks ago?
Sir, you must be confused. Bedtime Stories was involved in a tragic accident....
3 weeks ago.
😬😄
I don’t want to hijack the comments but I would love to share something that happened to me that’s non phone call related, but that I have an extremely hard time explaining.
About a year ago my cousin passed away suddenly from a brain aneurysm. We were extremely close and she was definitely my best friend, so of course I was absolutely distraught and could not stop crying.
The next day I went into my room to relax whilst I took my medication. It’s for my rheumatoid arthritis and takes awhile, so I usually play games on my iPhone to make the time pass quicker, and I always keep my phone on my bedside table, but it wasn’t there. I proceeded to look everywhere. I eventually took all the bedding and pillows off the bed because I had to remake it with clean linens anyway. I searched everywhere and asked my husband and daughter if they had seen it and neither had.
I resigned myself to the fact that I had used it earlier that morning so it was definitely somewhere in the house and would eventually show up. So I grabbed the iPad to watch some videos whilst finishing my medicine and after a few minutes my husband walked in and around to his side of the bed and said, “oh good, you found your phone” whilst pointing down next to me on the bed.
I looked next to me and right there on top of the quilt I had just put on the bed mere minutes before sat my phone. I know for a fact that it wasn’t there before I sat down and it couldn’t have been, regardless. I also know that I didn’t put it there, nor could anyone else have.
My only explanation is that maybe it was my cousin letting me know that she might be physically gone, but in a way, she’ll still always be around. That she’s okay and needed me to be okay, too. I have no idea if it really was her or not, but it absolutely helped me grieve her loss.
Thanks for letting me share.
R.I.P. Sly
Thanks for always being there for me no matter what or the time.
She knew your routines and said her let the pain pass
I've heard about these ghost calls for years. It's fascinating.
Another great video as usual. 😉 This reminds me of the old Twilight Zone episode where a little boy receives a toy phone from his grandmother, the grandmother dies & calls the boy on the phone all the time, but his parents don't believe him....until they answer the phone themselves & hear the dead grandmother's voice.😉 Rod Serling was ahead of his time.👍🏾
Almost identical to another episode where a paralysed old woman keeps getting phone calls from who she finds out is her dead fiance
@@SamuelBlack84 I remember that episode too!!😉
@@SamuelBlack84 That's my favorite episode!
Best Twilight Zone episode was "Night Call" Google and watch the whole thing. Creepy!!
@@goldyorkshiretea7566 My favourite is Where Is Everybody?
The wind in the background sound is so good. It just makes it really eerie. Creepy stories tonight bedtime stories do the ghostly ones so good.
My family has always recieved a phone call right after someone dies. We have always thought it was our family member just letting us know they got to where they needed to be. If nothing else it gives us a bit of comfort, real or not.
I called my house from a dream. In the dream I called home from my cousins house. At 3 in the morning my home phone rang and his name registered on the caller ID. I'm still bewildered by the thought of it to this day. BTW you guys' stories in the comments are fkn amazing.
@@LSD97123 I wish it were so, but some things just can't be explained.
Be kind.
Maybe someone at your cousin's house called your house?
I asked my cousin to make sure. He said nobody would have had any good reason to wake up the family by calling at 3 am, and they were all sleeping as well. The only thing that was adding up to me after considering other options was my phone call in the dream. How could it be ? Nobody knows but what if it's the only unexplainable explanation.
Have you ever sleep walked before, especially in unfamiliar environments? Sounds like a sleepwalking episode
You guys rock!! This is why I still have landlines just in case an old friend calls
My mom told me a story about how one of my aunts once received a phone call from either their father who died in a workplace accident years before, or another dead relative. I think said aunt also saw them at the foot of their bed.
I received one of these. Keep in mind that it it was a rough time in my life. I was extremely drunk and thought it was a dream. I went to make a call the next day and found out I had a 20 min conversation an with an unknown number. So what I thought was a dream actually happened.
This is really totally different but your story reminded me of my mum telling me of when she was pissed as a teen and crouched under a tree spewing and feeling like death when she heard a voice from above say her name and ask if she was ok. She thought "god, is that you?!?!!" And looked up. Turned out it was her pal sitting in the tree just checking in😂she's never even remotely believed in god. Spanner😄
@@teaspoonsofpeanutbutter6425 no not really. It was the second time my step father contacted me and my first time with a two way conversation. Hence the reason I thought it was a dream. I have a post archived in FB messenger that I received about 15 years after his death. The account was created and message was sent at midnight. There has been no activity on the account since. That was 10 years ago and the funny thing about it was that he was as technologically literate as a fence post.
This happened to me, the night my mother died, one she was at the foot of my bed as I woke I got a call telling me that she had died I was freaking out, I heard it's ok you will be ok. She came to me and my grandmother a few times and in a dream.. my grandmother died 5 months later
A fresh upload! Certified Bedtime classic
Reminds me the accident where the already dead occupants of the car still called for help until the wreckage is lifted
Probably one of my favorite episodes from you guys. For certain there's many of us who's lost someone so near to ourselves and think quite often what we wouldn't do or give to speak to them one last time if for any reason than to just hear their voice. Nothing creepy about this one. It hit home pretty hard and just made me think
Man I’d love to hear from my late wife. I miss her desperately
Ask her for a sign. It may not be a phone call, but you'll get it.
As much as I would love to hear my grandma's voice again I couldn't bear losing her all over again. To those who receive these bewildering calls my condolences are with you.
Same with my deceased grandparents. At least I can watch snippets of interviews my grandpa (dad’s dad) did when he asked questions about his involvement with the ENIAC project but I don’t have any memory of my biological grandma’s voice as she died when my dad was really young and my step grandma never uploaded any home videos on TH-cam. But I think these calls are our loved ones way of reassuring us that they are fine now and have been reunited with those whom they loved and had passed on before them. At least that’s my philosophy.
We didnt receive a call but, the circumstances around the death of my Mama M. (my grandmother) were almost serendipitous, after months long attempts to establish a phone service in central Mexico, the phone service not only managed to establish phone service for my grandparents, but the day before my grandmother's passing, Mama M. called us from Mexico, not knowing that all pieces in the puzzle had aligned to grant her the chance to say goodbye, only we didnt know it was the final call until the next day, when she passed of an unexpected pulmonary embolism. My mother and I have long suspected that the hand of fate, destiny, gave us a a chance to hear her one last time, before taking her to the other side. and for that I am grateful, as I am grateful to both my grandparents for all the love they gave me, they gave me all they had and could not have given more. Whenever I think of them all I can say is "thank you", I am not happy they passed, but I am grateful for the time we were given, and I cant wait until my time to join them finally arrives.
My sister rang me . And while we were talking I suddenly couldn't hear her . What we heard was heavy breathing and scrambled voices . Really scared us both .
My mobile does that it’s scary.
@@ann-mariepaliukenas19 it's only happened the once so far. But really weird . The breathing bit was the scariest .
This happened to me when I was 18. I got a call from my own number when I answered it was my uncle Craig who I never met or spoke to because he was a bad drug addict but he always wanted to meet me, he told me “Levi it’s your uncle Craig I hope you’re doing good” and hung up. I told my mom he called and she was so happy he finally contacted me she called my grandmother to tell her about it, that’s when my grandmother told her he was found dead by a river the day before.
For me, it wasn't a phone call, but a skywriter instead. My oldest cousin, John Pacillo died in a freak car accident. A year from that day, up in the sky were his initials, "J.P" with a heart around it. My mom ran home to call her cousin, the mother of John. They were both in tears. We still can't explain it.
Ive recieved call from what it appear to be my dead grandpa. As ive heard his voice, i was stunned, frozen in place, lost my voice for a moment. It turned out it was his brother i actually never met in person, and he had really similiar voice as my grandpa
Had several missed calls from a pal, Woodsy on my mobile phone weeks after he passed ;something wrong with his lungs....His number was no longer working....Could have been a glitch I suppose...
Finally, something I've actually (kind of) experienced! I was sitting with my grandmother when she got a call from a man who it turns out, had died about four days earlier...
This one here is gonna give me the creeps. Actually i have similar situations like this before likely when i was little a phone call rang and some unusual voices who i don't know. I know something i shouldn't have done, not only that during my final high school years and between that and my adult life i got these weird and strange phone calls people who i don't know and left confused i felt someone was trying to talk to me but now this is the reason why i felt the dead was trying to call me scary.
Very interesting topic, this particular phenomenon....The story with the "Cold Caller" who rang the man's house, and he stated he was at his wife's funeral the day the caller spoke to his deceased wife on the phone...[I wonder if the call was recorded for "Training Purposes"...and if he was intrigued to have it played back to him to try and distinguish who it was]....
What does it all mean?
@@SamuelBlack84 These days, it could be either...Genuine, or AI....
A friend of mine told me about this happening to his girlfriends family, the father passed away from being a heavy smoker and suffered a heart attack, hours after he had passed away the family received a call from the father, they answered and the father told them he was scared and did not know where he was and it was dark….. I don’t know why but that story has stuck with me for years, this happened like 15 years ago.
My mother once had a peculiar thing happen to her phone not long after her father had died. The text menu was opened by itself and the letter J was being repeated over and over as if someone was pressing the button, but nobody was. Her father's name was Johnny
The concept of spirits contacting the living has a long history, though I can only attest to one that happened to my family. My dad was woke up the middle of the night once shortly after his dad, my grandfather had passed away. He was awoke to the smell of the cologne my grandfather used to put on and had a feeling of contentment during the encounter as if knowing that he dad was in a better place now without any pain. It was my grandfather's way of visiting one last time to say goodbye and that he'll see us in heaven when it's our time to go home! I slept through this experience, but I do remember dreaming about my grandfather that same night and I got to give him a hug one last time. I'll never forget that dream!
Lovely gift
One of my two paranormal type instances was like this. Three or four days after my mother passed away my wife and I had come home from grocery shopping. The answering machine was flashing and the number showing was all zeroes and I had not ever seen this before. I pressed play and the voice sounded faint but very clear, it called my name twice and then the machine stopped, my wife and I stared at each other in disbelief.... It was without any doubt my mothers voice.
Probably just a glitch... but, who konows...
Excellent video! I have been convinced for years that my ex boyfriend called me from the other side. About 2 weeks after he was laid to rest.
It was around 1am and I was laying in bed dozing off when my cellphone rang the number said unknown I answered (I always answer unknowns.. bc I'm curious) I could almost feel something Unearthly, like I was connected to a different reality, just an eerie still silence. I said hello but no one said anything. I thought maybe someone was playing on the phone and I decided to play their game so I put the phone up to the cd player and blasted music. The caller didn't hang up and neither did I. I just put my end on mute and went to sleep about an hour later I woke up and the call was still connected, very confused I just hung up. I looked at the number again it said unknown. When I got up the next morning I looked through my call logs the unknown # was gone.
What's more strange is that the song I randomly chose to play was one of my ex's favorite songs not mine. I know in my heart it was him. May he rest in peace in God's Hands
🤍🕊️🙏🕊️🤍
I've heard a couple of tales when the person being contacted was negatively affected by a phone call from someone who had apparently passed on. While it does seem that many are positive or affirming, there are a few that don't live up to that expectation.
It would freak me the hell out, honestly. I believe once you're dead your spirit leaves the earth. But demons love to taunt and confuse people
I get these eerie phone calls every once in a while... They've been tracking me, taunting me, haunting me... I don't have an car but they insist on extending the warranty. They just keep relentlessly calling. ._.
_Bedtime Stories ending theme plays_
😅
You are being haunted by a ghost car sir! Worse yet YOUR WARRANTY IS EXPIRED!!!!
I 100% believe this can happen. My father had a close relationship with his grandmother who always had a way of knowing things (her son was shot in the Vietnam war and she woke up during the night freaking out because she dreamt her son had been shot) so after she passed it seemed like the connection she had with my father was still there because everytime he was in danger of having a accident or was in a life or death situation (he got upto a lot of trouble in his early years) right before it would happen he would hear her voice say his name in a panicked manor like she was trying to get his attention. He stopped hearing her voice after he was shot in the arm in the 80's maybe it had to do with the blood transfusion or she gave up trying to warn him but its still very interesting to me especially since he's a very logical guy and doesn't turn to paranormal explanations at all. He still doesn't know why he heard her voice in those situations
Top-notch illustration from Mikey once again. Also, I feel like this is a subject area that might have a few episodes in it. I've read so many stories about disconnected phonelines calling emergency services to help them find a deceased person or a known deceased family member calling their family, telling them wherever they are is unpleasant and scary and asking them to come get them.
Those are creepy!
I had an odd phone call that puzzeled me back in 2014. I was working at a fred meyers as one of those guys that grabbed carts from the parking lot. One of us had to have a company phone on us in case any of the clerks needed assistamce with a customer. I work the closing shift and so there wasnt many people inside the store past 10, we'd have 1 checkout open. I was out in the lot when i started to have a panic attack, as i was freaking out the phone in my vest pocket rang, it was the checkout cashier, i tried to collect myself before answering and started the walk inside. As i got in the main doors i answered the call and before i said anything the womana voice on the other end told me "Youre not alone" very soothenly and hungup. I was about 30steps away from where i could see all the checkouts and when i rounded the corner i saw the one cashier we had, it was a guy and i was confused on why he had called and sounded like an older woman over the phone. I got to him and he was checking out a customer and when i asked him why he called he was confused and told me he hadnt. I dont know what or who called me that night but its mever added up, did pull me out of my panic attack though
I had a book called, "Phone Call From a Ghost" which had similar stories. One case I read about that might be a worthwhile video is the appearance of Lt. James Sutton. He was a cadet at the U.S. Naval Academy who died and it was originally classified a suicide. However, his ghost appeared to his mother detailing how he was murdered. I don't want to ruin it but if you can find it, it's a very interesting story.
My girlfriend died suddenly next to me in bed this past March, we were constantly in contact. She was only 30. If she could have contacted me, she would have. I really wish these stories were true, to hear her voice again would be a dream come true.
Of all the paranormal phenomena we know of, phone calls from the dead are the most eerie and scary, yet heartwarming of them all.
It would be interesting to know if phone calls from the dead only accure on land lines...and if any are now received on smartphones.
I was thinking the exact same thing through the video. It's much like other cases of older tech/things/etc that have stories around them but are no longer a viable thing. I've had some weird calls on my smartphone but it usually is a spam caller or actual robot voice. Makes you wonder if legitimate land lines in the ground have something to do with it for they pass through something solid or if these are just ghost stories from an age long gone. Cause' I'm sure there are smartphone ghost stories out there. People often use whatever means of communication or media to tell a new type of ghost story throughout the ages.
As a kid, the landline terrorized me so much! Phantom calls where the phone called itself were common. Post-party line and pre-three way calling, I remember getting a call that was two nice old ladies speaking to each other, but it sounded very distant. Another one that freaked me out was getting calls with interference from radio towers. Cell phones had their own weirdness in the first years, but never anything as interesting or as unsettling as a landline.
Keep adding amazing content! This channel is better then any paranormal tv show
I liked the phone call recording from a numbers radio station
the x files may be the exception
@@dfaiola18 I need to get back into those
On the morning of my Grandad's interment, both my Dad and my Aunt, his sister, received (and missed) calls on their mobiles from each other - at precisely the same time, neither had made a call. Each phone only recorded receiving a call from the other, no record of each having dialled out. Comparing phone bills, the calls occurred at exactly the same time, down to the second.
Both phones, in two totally different locations, had apparently received a call from the other simultaneously, less than an hour or so before their father's cremated remains were due to be interred in the local cemetery.
This happened to a good friend of my mom back in the days. Supposedly this friend call her sister at 6 pm saying that her husband push her and she felt down the stairs. Her sister rush to the house only to be told by the neighbor that a lady die on the scene at around noon and was taken out on a stretcher by paramedic. Probably one of the most frightening incident of my childhood life. For the next several weeks, we heard so much noise in our kitchen in the dead of night. Our dog freaking out. My mom said that it was her good friend ghost/spirit visiting us. The sister had to move far away due to too much strange occurrence happening. I guess they were terrorized by her spirit for months and months.
I don’t mean to barge but that sounds like an important message just to confront or tell the murderer the message she got the noise was her way of saying don’t leave me hanging in limbo even if charge’s didn’t come it would of put the spirit as rest that someone knew
i thought this is something only happened in my country.
there are also stories about how people met a certain person just days or hours before his/her death, except it's impossible for them to physically meet because they are ill and hospitalized or has been deceased before their meeting, or seeing far relatives in their dreams before receiving a call about their death hours later.
why would u think people dying and communicating only happened in your country? lol what a weird statement
@@CerealKiller669 paranormal stuff is much more commonly accepted in other countries, especially when it comes to the thin line between the living and the dead.
@@michaelbeholder bruh in the USA we have tv shows about it..lol what u mean its more accepted
Dopplegangers are an omen that something bad will befall the person who is seen. My sister claimed to have seen my doppleganger when I was young and my mother got quite worked up about it.
Although I don't believe in the supernatural whatsoever, I have a similar experience to this. My mother passed away when I was 13. I kept her mobile phone number in my phone's contacts for the months after, because I couldn't bring myself to remove it, even though the phone had been disconnected since her death. About a year after she passed, I was in a very bad place when I received a series of missed calls and silent voicemails: the caller-ID said "mum".
Rationally thinking ,it was probably a glitch in my phone, or maybe the number was reissued and that person called me by mistake. Yet what are the odds of that happening... No matter what, it gave 13-year-old me a strange sense of comfort to think there was even the slightest chance she was reaching out to me.
Open your mind my friend. They pretty well completely admitted ufos exist, and are opening ufo/abduction department again in the us. Use rational thinking, and remember the human ego is minute when compared to the power and magnitude of our universe
Rationality. What a cosmic joke.
A theatre I used to work at had an automated call line which used prerecorded messages. A few years back the woman who voiced the line died and the phones were disconnected. For about two years after that, the disconnected phones would ring randomly during shows and her voice would play. This pretty much stopped when a new phone system was installed, but they still occasionally get a call where the old prerecorded messages play, despite them not being anywhere on the system anymore...
It’s real. It happened to me 30 years ago. My granddad had been gone 13 years when it happened. I specifically said at the time that it sounded like he was calling me from the other side of the world because the quality of the call was bizarre.
Fab ep, as always it appears to have been made with excellence in mind and it shows! Great graphics and narration of a really interesting topic. I particularly love the 👻 ghostie ones! 😊🙏🏻 thank you BS team 👍🏻
Are you dead? How did you post a comment 2 days ago when this was uploaded just an hour ago?? 👻
Yeah....strange how is this comment here?
Makes me feel bad for listening with my phone screen off 🤭
Omg I love these stories! The scariest Twilight Zone episode I ever saw was "Night Call" chills 😬
Is that the one with little billy mumy from lost in space about his grandmother calling him from beyond the grave? Totally luv the original twilight zone and the outer limits, that never gets enough recognition.
@@michaelbruns449 it's the one where the bed ridden woman gets a call from her dead fiance. He keeps saying, "h e l l ooo" over and over. This episode scared me to death as a child.
@@lisanealy1703 oh yes, the downed telephone line is laying across his grave.
Oh, me, too - me, too! Scared the carp outta me first time I saw it and I still don't like to watch that one :-O
@@RKusmie64 right. I believe this is the scariest episode of Twilight Zone.
I want the kind of friend who brings me a bottle of brandy when I'm in the nursing home
Wasn't that sweet?!?
@@texastea5686 Unironically, I LOVE Texas Tea, especially the unsweetened with mint!

I had unsolved mysteries, playing on TH-cam on my TV, on in my house and when the episode was almost over I took my dog for a walk and put this show on my phone to listen to as I walked. When I got back autoplay had gone to another episode and I could scarcely believe my ears, the episode that was then on my TV was about a lady who's friend had died on Saturday at 633 and she had a call and message recorded on her machine from him at 633. What a spooky coincidence! I'm not kidding. It blew my mind
I know that episode! I just watched it the other day!
Autoplay plays similar stuff by design, it's not a coincidence.
@@1NSHAME But that episode specifically?
@@1NSHAME And I played that on roku and I didn't sign into my TH-cam account on there
It's also possible that that specific video got an uptick in new viewers after this episode of bedtime stories aired. So that increases the chances of it being autoplayed for everyone.
The next video should be about the Mammoth sightings of Russia and Alaska. The last Mammoths died out 3000 years ago.
East if when we die we just wake up in another reality. What if our alternate realities actually intertwine and overlap at certain places and times. This would explain every single paranormal phenomenon ever proposed. It's kind of fascinating to think about.
Another great episode, thank you. I read D. Scott Rogo's book on this subject when it first came out. It is a scary book. Rogo was later murdered, by the way.
I’m still waiting for my Grandmother to call, 11 years after her passing.
Get an old fashion land line phone, set it up and focus waiting alone for it to ring at night and especially during thunderstorms.
@@michaelbruns449 Sounds like an idea I could get behind!
When I was grieving my grandmother I really wanted to talk with her one more time and was thinking that I had not enough time to ask everything I wanted to know about her. Next day after my preying I find her diary. I am not really religious but this was like little miracle for me. When I read her diary I heard her voice in my head. It was like she was telling me story of hers
My husband's grandfather died twenty years ago. Just a few days after he passed, his younger son received a message on the answering machine that just said "I'm fine" and it was him. Grandpa had throat cancer which left him with a very unique voice, no doubt it was a message from beyond. Out of his five children, grandpa called the only one that did not have caller ID at the time.
Hmm, could this had been a delayed message or an older message popping out?
@@marcusferderber5789 well, it was a new message left on a regular answering machine.
@@damacosmica348 I understand... this was digital or tape recorder?
@@marcusferderber5789 I don't remember... This was in 2002.
@@damacosmica348 thanks for the answer. Interesting stuff... Was this some kind of a peculiar machine glitch or something beyond we will never know for sure. But it is strange that he kept his 'sick' voice, if this was from the beyond. One would think that we have 'new' bodies on the other side...
EVP Electronic voice phenomenon
I remember seeing this in the Michael Keaton movie, White Noise back in 2005
Creepy movie
Omg I'd forgotten about that movie
This one hit close to home, guys. As usual, great job. I had third level goosebumps from this reading! Unfortunately, there are quite a few people that I really wish I could hear from...Great job, again... t
Me too, my ex husband just died last week, suddenly. I was the last person he tried calling before he died, I tried texting him after I knew he was gone. I’ve been hoping for a sign from beyond but so far nothing
Same here. I wish I could hear my grandma’s voice again. As well as both my grandpas. Of course with one of them I can just type his name in the TH-cam search bar and listen to him (he was a famous mathematician/computer scientist).
@@mirandagoldstine8548
-OP- That's pretty cool....I mean not cool but...nevermind.
I was referring to my wife in the original post. She died one day after our one year wedding anniversary. It has been several years since tho... I don't think you ever get over that sort of thing.
@@treylewis5281 I’m sorry about that. To be fair my dad lost his mom when he was young. He’s only spoken bits about her, I guess it’s partially because he was so young (only 6 or 7) when she passed on and partially because he’s still grieving. I lost my grandpa, my dad’s dad, when I was 13. Every day I wish I could get some sign from the afterlife that he’s ok.
@@mirandagoldstine8548
I understand. I'm sorry to hear about your losses as well.
Maybe the fact that we don't hear anything from them is a good thing. They are no doubt in a better place. I think ghosts are the exception and not the rule. Not hearing or seeing them hopefully means that all is as it is supposed to be. Ya know?
What a fantastic video, I watched it again dozens of times, very apt and suggestive drawings and black and white photos and very appreciable the choice to put a soundtrack at very low volume. Perfect tone and style of the narrator. Congratulations to the authors.
My father got a phone call from his brother overseas but the connection was very bad and he only heard his brother calling his name. He died same day (young guy) and the call was made after he supposedly died
I was named after him (and his death) and despite never meeting him i supposedly have a lot of his personality traits..
Your uncle was reincarnated into your body. You are one
My uncle gets text messages from my granny every once in a while. She passed a year ago in January but still messages him and when he opens the text, it shows nothing but her phone number and date of birth, almost like she finds it in his notes app and just texts it back to him. Nobody can figure out why it happens but it usually occurs when he talks about her or stays in her home.
❤️❤️❤️
I was on my cellphone with my daughter about two hours after my dad died. My phone beeped telling me someone was calling. I looked at my phone and it was my dad’s picture, the one I assigned to his number. I really didn’t think a whole lot of it at first. I just assumed either my mom or brother was calling on his phone. Not only was no one using that phone, dad’s phone was in a drawer- battery dead for three weeks because he was too ill to use it. His picture only lasted for about a second and then it disappeared. This was two years ago and I treasure that moment every day. It was him saying goodbye for the last time.
Hi, this is a very interesting story. Did you check the incoming/missed list calls? I just wander did the cell phone register the call. Thanks.
No call records were were seen later from either cell phones.
Reading through the comments, this seems to be a fairly common occurrence. I've always been pretty sceptical about anything to do with the paranormal, but while I've never experienced anything myself (that I don't have a "natural" explanation for, anyway), there are things that have happened to people I know - people who I know wouldn't BS about this sort of stuff - and one of those things was exactly this. In 2006, my GF at the time phoned me at about 6:30am, sounding very shaken. She told me that she'd just got off a several minute phone call with her grandmother, but that her mother had phoned her earlier to say that her grandmother had died. She never actually gave me details of the call - line quality, conversation content, anything like that, and I didn't want to press her for info, even though I was a bit of a paranormal investigator at the time. It just felt wrong to ask.
Yeah seems some common threads. Static, lower voice, watery sound, etc.
Hmm, interesting stuff... But I just wonder could some of this cases could had been mistaken calls with people who have similar voices whille psychology and memory distortion does the rest? And not to mention that a large proportion of this stories is fake. I mean, if the dead can ring a phone then this would be a normal occureence happening to all people, not just the few...
