In 2021, on some random morning, my girlfriend and I awoke from sleep and she told me about a dream she had. The dream involved my grandparents on my mother's side, who I was very close to. My grandad passed away in 2008, eight years before I met my girlfriend, and my grandma was in a care home and had dementia when we met, so I didn't think it wise to introduce them. She passed away in 2019.

My girlfriend said, I was at some sort of seaside place. It definitely wasn't Blackpool. I saw your grandma and grandad. I looked at her confused and she continued, Your grandma approached me and took my arm. I looked around and we were at a market and I saw your grandad pottering about in the background. He had his hands behind his back and smiled and nodded.

She didn't know this at the time, but that's how my grandad would wander about, with his hands behind his back, and he'd smile and nod if you weren't in speaking distance. She continued, Your grandma looked concerned and said, You need to make sure Catherine's alright. Look after her and make sure she's okay. I was all the more puzzled. What did you say to my grandma? I asked.

My girlfriend just said, I said I would make sure you were okay. I wondered what my grandma could have meant because it wasn't just a regular dream. There were personal nuances my other half had never witnessed that happened in her dream. So was it a message?

It was. And I really love the fact that it just emphasised the fact that paranormal stories don't have to be scary. Like they can be comforting. They can be rewarding. They can be like a warm, spooky hug.

yeah and a lot of the traditions that surround halloween and in many cultures as well like all saints day the next day is remembering family and making offerings to your ancestors and the people that we've lost and this story kind of just hit the nail on the head for that it was ancestors looking out for the people that they've left behind absolutely and i think that's beautiful

Yeah, when Lil said, you know, the chills went up on her arm, I sometimes wish that we could record video of our episodes. So you can see our faces when we listen to these, or when we read them for the first time, the amount of times we'll have got a story in and we'll read it and we're like... My God.
