So at this point, it's like March 2020 and COVID had just hit and there's like nothing to do but like go for walks with Francis. Like I was working from home. I worked in nonprofit at that time. So Francis and I would go to the park all the time and we'd take these like long walks all the time. So one day I'm at the park and Misha, who has three sons, randomly shows up at the park too.

And we get to chatting. We like weren't close friends yet at this point. And I just asked her about the skull that she had mentioned because Mark and I basically thought that she had made that up to scare us since the house negotiations had gotten a little contentious. So I was like, you were like fucking with us, right? And she was like, no, I was not. I was not making that up.

That absolutely happened. And then she said, let me go. I'll confirm all the details with Chris when I get home. So she texted me later that night and she told me, not only is that true, that skull, but she said that Chris, after that happened, did a bunch of research on the property and learned that there was a church and graveyard in that portion of the yard.

So most likely, in his opinion, that was probably a graveyard where they pulled that tree out. I sort of told her at that point, like, I didn't give her a lot of detail because I was a bit bashful about being judged. But I told her a little bit, like, there's something going on with this house, and we love it, but there's just something going on here. That summer, the weirdness persists.

Frances and I, like I said, we're taking all these really long walks, and there's this forest near my house where we walk every day during COVID. At this point, she's like a year, a little bit over a year. And we just hear whistling in the woods every time that we go, like following us through the woods. Not birds, like human whistling. Nobody else is in this nature preserve.

Like I said, like weird things like that were just happening with remarkable frequency. But it was one-offs. Like it was a little thing here and a little thing there. And Frances was just starting to talk. And when she could start to clearly communicate with us, she started to say some like pretty jaw-dropping stuff about what was happening to her at night.

This is when Auntie Gloria like enters the scene. It wasn't like a gradual introduction to Auntie Gloria. It was like one morning just before her second birthday. She told us that Auntie Gloria had come to see her last night and was playing with her toys and reading her books. And Mark and I kind of looked at each other and we started to probe her just a little bit. who's Auntie Gloria?

What does she say when she comes? Is she friendly or is she mean? At that time, like, she was pretty open about it. She would say, like, she's really nice. She reads me the stories that she wrote. She just comes and says hi. She told me happy birthday. And so Mark and I, obviously, we get, like, kind of curious. Like, well, let's figure out, like, is this Auntie Gloria – Who is this?
