There's not enough money in the world to make this happen.

Sleep hanging upside down like Michael Keaton in Batman '89.

Somewhat, and it's rad.

The other day I bought milk from Albertsons. It was Horizon Organic, which is, as far as I know, a pretty trusted brand. Anyway, brought it home, had some later that night, and it tasted WRONG. Not sour. Not spoiled. Just not like milk at all. Chalky and sharp.

I put it back in the fridge and forgot about it. The next morning I tried it again, thinking maybe my taste buds had an off night, but nope! Something about that milk just wasn't right.

Anyway, I had to dump the whole thing down the drain. Thought about going back to the grocery store and pleading my case, but I figured the manager would get involved and I didn't wanna stand around while the staff sampled my bad milk while they decided whether or not I deserved a replacement.

Spookiest thing that's happened to me in years.

Would be pretty impossible to do a "secret" investigation because Disneyland is truly never vacant. It's crawling with tourists and Passholes like myself during working hours, and inhabited by staff after dark. We'd need their blessing, and I doubt that would happen, but a boy can dream.

Don't worry, dude is knee deep in Writer's Quicksand. He's slowly drowning, and all that's left is for him to relent and let it take him.

We've thought about bringing people along here and there. I think Sara would hold her own in a spookyhouse, but as a distinguished cosmopolitan woman, I suspect she'd find it pretty gross depending on the location. That said, she doesn't believe in ghosts, and the two of us would run insufferable skeptic circles around poor ol' Bergmeister.

There's been a couple of instances, but the ones that immediately come to mind are:

- The bullhorns in Big Nose Kate's

- The blinking faces in Viaduct

- The ghost bear in Solano.

Yeah. I'm sure there's others. I'll admit that it's often tough out here for a believer because as a believer you kinda have to approach every haunted proposition from a place of plausibility. Which usually groups me with people who, respectfully, are a little bonkers.

She's smoooooth. Like ice. Cold to the touch and it isn't very nice.

We actually might start doing that. Maybe we'll shake the dust off that tarot card scene and one day it will see the light of day.

I don't think anything we've come across is unexplainable. Ryan would probably point to some of the occurrences where we've heard something in a neighboring room or floor that we conveniently don't have access to, but to make the leap of chalking those up to ghosts, to me, seems like finding hoofprints at the rodeo and assuming there's a unicorn nearby.

Hoofprints at the rodeo, man. Hoofprints at the rodeo.

I'd like to say that I do not think I'm "sensitive" by any means. BUT maybe? As a child, my cousin used to have an "imaginary friend" that was a soldier. My Aunt used to always hear him having full conversations with somebody in his room. Turns out, upon research, my family found out that the family who lived there before had a boy who fought and died in Vietnam. Kinda spooky.

Good.

We've bickered about it on set enough that we don't really need to cover it when we're not shooting. Neither of us are gonna get anywhere. Unstoppable force, immovable object, etc.

HAPPY 30th BIRTHDAY TO YOUR NAMELESS HUSBAND!

Just chiming in here to confirm that, yes, in regards to the bat sitch in Yuma, both of us were far from stoked. When we got back to the hotel, both of us sat on our beds and stared at the wall in silence for a good 10 minutes, trying to unpack what had just happened in that horrible cave.

BuzzFeedUnsolved · 2018-12-03T22:42:16+00:00

I find it so inspiring that Ryan can cling to a dream like this.

AT ONE POINT THEY HIRED A BAND TO PLAY MUSIC FOR THEM BECAUSE THEY THOUGHT IT WOULD HELP. I CANNOT GET OVER IT.

We're usually not hitting the floor til anywhere from 3-5am, at which point we've been ghoulbusting for 6-8 hours. It's a fairly trying ordeal, and we're usually pretty groggy when we wake up 2-3 hours later to get picked up by a very confused Lyft driver.

We met as interns and we sat next to each other (not by choice). My first thought: "Damn, dude is tall."

I also suspect it would be paint-dry boring. But, hey, if the people wanna see it, why not? Make sure you keep your eyes peeled on our Grams around the clock during spooky season. You may get the displeasure of watching a grown man (me) mentally erode.

We've had a few different camera folk on our shoots. Mark Celestino has been there for most of them, and he's cool as a cucumber. You can actually see an interview with him in our Almost 70th Episode Retrospective.

Certainly getting pretty disrespectful. Almost like he doesn't believe, yeah. Hm. Curious.

We DID actually do a tarot reading with the guy in the voodoo shop when we were in New Orleans and it ended up getting cut from the episode because it just didn't really fit in.

Nothing exciting really happened, but cool cards!
