Speaker 3 (0:01) On the back! You're having a laugh. My favourite ghost story. Speaker 4 (0:05) She's just really bad at maths. Maybe she's just really bad at shutting her legs. Tell us. Speaker 2 (0:09) Tell Speaker 3 (0:10) us. Speaker 4 (0:10) Tell Speaker 3 (0:11) everyone. Speaker 4 (0:12) Send Speaker 2 (0:12) to all. Speaker 3 (0:20) Happy Monday, guys. Welcome back to Give Us Overheard. If you are a regular listener, then don't forget you can join us on Patreon every Wednesday as well. We're around all week. We're here on a Monday for this episode. Wednesday, we have confession sessions where we get into the phone and we read all your stories, dilemmas and confessions. Friday, we do a debrief of the week's news and pop culture stories. Yeah, culture. And then Sunday, we have the vlog. So make sure you join us everywhere. We've had a wee influx Speaker 2 (0:47) on Patreon recently. We have. The group is growing. It's Speaker 4 (0:50) great. Speaker 2 (0:50) Which is why we've got the extra group chats now, which are going well. So, yeah. It's part of my A.C. Speaker 4 (0:55) Witch organisation, actually. Speaker 2 (0:57) Oh, my God. We actually had somebody. I can't show you the picture, because I don't know how to remove everybody. But basically, this girl messaged us saying, I paid for an A.C. Witch to have perfect weather on my wedding day. Yeah. And she did. Now, I'm like... Did Speaker 3 (1:12) she? Speaker 2 (1:13) Yeah. Or was it just perfect? Was it coincidental? Somebody said if they had to pay for an Etsy witch, they would always want a full tank of gas. Why did I say gas when it says fuel here? A full tank of fuel as well for every rude customer to have to stare themselves and deal with their shit attitude. But basically, she paid an Etsy witch for good weather on her wedding day back in June and it worked to treat as the weather was perfect. However, we have since seen some spooky ghosts in our wedding photos and people... led me to believe it's a side effect of the Etsy witch's spell. That's what I said, guys. I Speaker 4 (1:49) feel like I'm the first one to tears. I Speaker 3 (1:50) feel like you just are summoning something. It gets creepier. Speaker 2 (1:55) No, what are you talking about? I got married in a cathedral followed by reception at a wedding venue and the ghosts were only in the pictures from the cathedral. So... Speaker 4 (2:06) Which is the only picture you did the good weather for. Speaker 2 (2:08) Here's our wedding picture. I can't obviously show you, guys. It looks Speaker 3 (2:11) so Speaker 2 (2:11) good. That's a professional picture. Zoom in. Speaker 3 (2:15) But wait, where is it I'm looking? Wait, turn it... Yep. That's not a real person. No. Show me it right now. Show me it right now, I want to Speaker 4 (2:23) see it. Speaker 3 (2:24) That's the clearest ghost I've ever seen. Is she sure that wasn't one of our guests? Somebody's plus one. Are we sure? Is that a magnet in the back? Magnet! You're having a laugh. No. Guys, please, if you're listening or audio only, we're going to share this in the stories. Right? If she lets us, if she lets us, we'll share it. What are you talking, does she not just work there? No. Wait. Speaker 3 (2:48) If this is you, get in touch, right? If you got lost and you went, maybe you went into the cathedral to use the toilet and you've ended up in the background of somebody's Speaker 2 (2:54) photo. Is the head though? I'm like, it doesn't look like she's got any, it almost looks like a nun hat. That's not the right word and I'm so sorry. What are you called? Speaker 3 (3:05) Nun's eyes. Is it the Speaker 4 (3:05) habitat? I'm really hoping that this listener's going to come back and go, no, no, no, that's just his mum. I'm talking about the wee Speaker 2 (3:10) orb in the corner. Speaker 4 (3:11) Right, pass back. What does Speaker 2 (3:12) she say? There's more. Zoom in to back left behind my husband's shoulder. This is none of our guests and there was no one behind us at this point as we were first out of the chapel. She also has no feet. Happy for you to share if you exclude us and the location from my picture. Then. No, what's next? This one is arguably creepier. What the fuck are you talking about? Zoom in to the open cathedral door. Speaker 2 (3:37) my sister has upped the contrast to help you see right so I'll show you these ones right because this is like your Speaker 4 (3:44) typical wedding photo group photo there's about a hundred and Speaker 2 (3:48) odd people there everybody maybe we need to just actually be going through this though to make sure that the wee woman at the back isn't the woman for the first of it then surely Speaker 4 (3:57) she would say yeah like surely Speaker 2 (3:59) she would be like that as a member right So you see this is here and we've got the cathedral door at the back. For the audio listeners, this is basically Speaker 4 (4:07) everyone out in like a big patio situation, like it's a big courtyard. The building's in the background. There's like loads of people, they're all looking up. The picture's been taken from above. So you can see the, like the doors and the windows of the building behind. Speaker 2 (4:22) It looks like a night. Speaker 3 (4:24) It looks like a knight in shining armour. And then also... You don't get knights in cathedrals, Speaker 2 (4:30) guys. There's also a hand. Would there not have been a knight in a cathedral in the olden days? Wait, what? It's Speaker 3 (4:37) the fact that they've had to turn the contrast up to actually get that. Otherwise, you maybe would never have known. You would miss it. Speaker 2 (4:43) I hope you're not babbling us up here. Speaker 3 (4:45) If you are, I love it, actually. Thanks so much for the effort. Can we investigate? Is that a painting? It's not a painting. It's in the doorway. Speaker 4 (4:52) No, Speaker 2 (4:52) that's the open Speaker 4 (4:52) door. That's an open door and that's two people standing in the threshold of the open door. There Speaker 2 (4:56) is an open door. You Speaker 3 (4:59) summoned the ghost. The good thing is, I would say the Speaker 2 (5:04) woman in the first one, happy. Yeah, she looked happy to be there. Actually, from the look of her, she looked dressed for the occasion. Yeah, she's dressed Speaker 3 (5:12) up. She's went, you've asked me to come here. I'm just setting up. Imagine you could see the witch. Imagine you could see what the witch looked like and Speaker 2 (5:20) imagine she looked Speaker 3 (5:21) like that. Imagine that was her. She just wanted to come check. She teleported. Speaker 2 (5:24) She was like, I know I've done this, but I need to go there and make sure. That Speaker 3 (5:28) is absolutely insane. And actually, Speaker 2 (5:30) my Speaker 3 (5:31) favourite ghost story. I'm so happy with that because number one, I feel like they're happy ghosts. They're there just Speaker 4 (5:37) to make sure everything's gone okay. But the way that they look in that doorway, right? The woman, she just looks a bit older, as in like not old in age, but just like from another era. they they too that night and that man that are meeting in the doorway they look so old that it looks like once upon a time yeah they've been around for a long time obviously now i'm just doing a wee snoop just to make sure there's no other ghosts you've not noticed guys if you get any of those scary ghost stories or don't i actually really find very creepy what very creepy indeed see video footage of children we'll not share that right now if it's just for our own enjoyment see your um baby monitor footage and it'll be like your baby talking to something in the corner Speaker 2 (6:19) i'm not up for that at all i think that's terrifying honestly i i think that there is i'm Speaker 4 (6:25) a believer right that you are an open book until society closes it and you're conditioned into not being able to tap into that anymore because see the things my kids used to say when they're younger really weird and spooky Speaker 3 (6:38) like Speaker 4 (6:39) and i didn't enjoy hearing it yeah so I go like are the kids just more open to these things and then it's almost like they they know the reaction they get when they tell people it and it kind of makes them shut off to it or even just like the fact that nobody acknowledges it so it's then not like it's not you don't grow with it like it's not like enhancing anyway as you get older so you then just lose the ability kind of like learning a language yep I'm dying guys you know we love Speaker 3 (7:08) a ghost story so if you get anything else like that you've looked back at a picture and you've discovered that there's more to it than you expected then please send it Speaker 4 (7:15) to us or can we get the ones where it's like you've thought that's happened but actually it's been explained yep so it's like you know when you're younger and it'll be like oh my god like I thought I seen like we had in my school we had the nun's toilet do yous know this the toilet at the very top of the school and it was in the farthest corner and nobody went down those stairs and it was just it was weird and creepy and everyone used to call it the nun's toilet so we were all terrified of it Speaker 2 (7:39) okay Speaker 4 (7:40) but it would be interesting if someone was like oh my god you always hear that and it's someone singing and it turns out that wee Betty actually always hums a song when she goes and cleans that area yeah yeah and then it's like you've debunked it I'd quite like to hear them as well but Speaker 3 (7:53) I Speaker 4 (7:53) feel like whenever that does happen right because that's Speaker 3 (7:54) definitely happened to me in the past and I've been really creeped out by something and then you find out that's it's a totally normal explanation you kind of don't want to believe that because you're like oh no but it's more fun yeah I like the creepy version Speaker 2 (8:04) I'm just going to pretend you never said Speaker 3 (8:06) that yeah Speaker 3 (8:08) Okay, so every week, guys, we put a question on our stories. And if you want to join in, we normally put it on a Monday. And you can send in either your little question box answers or you can send us your bigger ones. So go and follow us on Instagram. We're obviously girlsoverheard on there. And if you want to send us stories, it's 07428957885. This week we asked, tell us something that you found out by accident that you are absolutely not supposed to know. The idea, I think, for that is... snooping first of all yeah right you snoop someone you maybe find a relative you snoop them and then you know way too much yeah you know about their whole life you know about outfits that they've worn and you have to kind of draw it back in uh-huh because it feels weird we all do it we all snoop we all probably know too much information we Speaker 2 (8:56) do Speaker 3 (8:57) but you can't always admit to it. It also might just be something that you've overheard, right? Which is very fitting. And we did get this longer message in, which is quite good. I was in Primark changing rooms and heard two girls on either side of me talking about their night out the night before and how one of them went back to a party where the guy had two big fluffy cats, a piano and a huge framed print of Biggie on the wall. A very distinct Speaker 4 (9:22) description. Speaker 3 (9:23) It really is. That Speaker 4 (9:24) honestly feels like that game, The Shopping List. I went to the shop and I got two fluffy cats. I went to the shop and I got a big massive picture of Biggie. I went to the shop and I got a grand piano. There's no Speaker 2 (9:34) two guys that have that. It's an unusual bachelor pad. Where is the checkered sheets? I Speaker 4 (9:39) can Speaker 2 (9:39) picture it. I Speaker 4 (9:40) think he Speaker 2 (9:40) just Speaker 4 (9:40) likes ceilings. Speaker 2 (9:43) It's high ceilings. It's very Speaker 3 (9:44) Pinterest vibe in my head. It's giving West End. Speaker 4 (9:47) He just Speaker 3 (9:47) likes rap music and pussy. So the two girls are on either side talking about this flat. I immediately knew it was my ex's flat. So I sat down on the wee seat, hit record on my voice note and I sent it to the girls group chat. Speaker 4 (10:00) I Speaker 3 (10:00) sat there with a huge smile on my face as she described how the guy who owned the flat, her ex, tried on with every single girl there and got a KB and how his breath was barking. Wait. Oh. Speaker 2 (10:12) But you still went back with him? No, she never allowed him to pay attention. One Speaker 3 (10:17) of those girls went back with him? They've went back for a party. They've not went back for him. They've all went back. They've just Speaker 4 (10:23) went back for Biggie and the Pussy. Yeah. Sorry. And the piano. Speaker 3 (10:28) I was feeling a bit shit that day and it really made my day. That's almost like fate jumping in and just being like, hi, are you thinking about your ex? Are you thinking about your ex? This is what he's up to now. Yeah. It's breath sparking. Speaker 4 (10:41) Yeah. Get like impressed man. But you know that I imagine that to be like a guardian angel. Uh huh. And the guardian angel's like I'm so fucking bored. I'm bored.com. Yeah. Speaker 3 (10:50) Bored.com. Speaker 4 (10:50) Bored.com. Hashtag bored. Don't know what to do with myself. Look at her. There's Abby. It's not Abby. It's not her name is it? No. Good. There's Abby. She's looking a bit miserable. Speaker 2 (11:00) Let's make a wee situation here. Let's make her feel better. She's in pre-marked changing rooms. She's having a Mary a time. She's not got an outfit. The lighting's not
