guys, is Jojo Wright and welcometo PARANORMALI is this episode. I'm titling
it the Soul Collector. This ladyis a psychic. She'll explain everything.
Her name is Vanessa, Vanessa Stewart. She has a gift or as maybe
someone referred to it as a cursebecause it's got to be frightening, I'm
sure. But she can see thingsand she's had so many encounters, and
(00:22):
she'll explain many of these encounters she'shad in this one particular podcast. But
the one that towards the end shesaw this being and she actually caught a
pick of it, which she sentto me, is it's just wild to
look at this being is the bestway I can describe it. Is sort
of like a grim reaper type character. She referred to it as a collector,
(00:47):
and I'll leave it at that.But this is one of the most
fascinating podcast that I have ever done. And this podcast, you know,

(01:33):
is the Soul Collector Jojo on theradio present Paranormal and Normal. Vanessa.
Are you good to go? Arewe ready for this? I'm great,
I'm ready to go. All right. She hit me up. She sent
me a voicemail and she told mejust a couple of notes. I don't
(01:53):
have all the details on Vanessa's story, but my god, once you said,
you know, of course you're apsyche, your medium, and she
says, Jojo, I've seen thingsthat will blow your mind. At that
point, me and Vanessa became bestfriends. Vanessa, where do we started?
I guess, you know, beinga psychic medium? At what age,
(02:14):
and we'll get to the the demonthe poulterguys story fairly early in the
podcast, because that's a that's abig deal here. I mean, I
can't wait to hear this. Butwhen did you first know or when did
you first realize that you had agift? If that's what you refer is
it a gift? I mean,technically I've had people call it a gift.
Some people call it my superpowers,like a joke between my friends and
(02:36):
I, So technically, I guessit is a gift. I remember being
a young child and seeing things andseeing people and pointing them out to my
mom and saying, hey, look, this guy's over here, and she
would just kind of like look atme and no, honey, And it
wasn't the normal stereotypical like oh,you have imaginary friends type talk, you
(03:00):
know. And I just remember throughoutmy life I would have, you know,
experiences with people that weren't there,and I was too young at the
time to realize that only I wasseeing them. So you would see,
hey, Mom, there's the there'sa guy over there, there's a lady
over there. Plain as day toyou, you could see it might as
(03:20):
well be me or you like I'mstanding next to you. That clear absolutely,
I assume. Is it tough toyou know, and we'll go through
all this, but is it toughto when you're walking around and you see
that, do you get confused onwho is a spirit and who's you know,
a human? Okay, no,okay, so let me let's let
me clarify it a little bit soI can see them just like I would
(03:40):
if we were walking around a grocerystore and we were shopping. Now I
see you five feet away, Icould see someone that is past, and
I can see them as clearly asI see you. But they look different.
They're oh man, if I hadto describe it, you know,
like an old timey like TV showwhere it looks the people look a little
(04:03):
bit gray, but they might bea little bit hazy, you know,
kind of like like a black andwhite kind of old TV show. It's
kind of like seeing them like that. For the most part. They don't
really come and color all that much. Normally, they're more of a black
and gray or a silhouette type.But I can see them plain as day,
just like I can see you.When's the last one? I know?
(04:24):
You do a lot of work,psychic readings and whatnot. But just
off the top of your head,here, when's the last one you bumped
into at a grocery store at amall? When's the last time that happened?
Oh? Goodness, I was CanI name the store? Sure?
Is that? Okay? I wasshopping at best By the other day and
I got an updated webcam for whenI stream on my social media's when I'm
(04:46):
doing my readings and stuff. AndI went inside to go get another product,
and I was literally standing by theApple computers and there was an older
lady there with someone who looked likeshe was, you know, trying to
buy them a computer, and shehad I would, I truly believe,
because I wasn't talking to him atthe time, because I was kind of
(05:06):
ignoring it. I think that itwas her husband that had passed, and
he was standing around her and hewas right behind her, like right pressed
up against her, and I justkind of see it, and I'm like,
oh, okay. And that wasmaybe about three or four days ago.
Wow, are you giving me chills? Honestly? That is Uh,
It's beautiful and kind of kind ofscary at the same time, you know,
(05:28):
yeah, you get used to itthough, Like for me, everyone
asked me like, oh my god, is that scary? Is that scary?
And honestly, I have been likethis for so long I'm used to
it. Even there's a lot ofdark side to the work that I do.
Not that you know, I bringit on, but sometimes it comes
to me. There is a lotof sadness about when I do private readings.
(05:51):
I see things. I see peopledying a lot because that's what they
show me. So there is alot that I'm like to say that I'm
desensitized to because I'm just so usedto seeing it. When you saw the
lady in the store of shopping atBest Buy and her husband or who you
believe to be your husband, aman standing behind her, are you inclined
(06:14):
to even though you didn't do it? And maybe I'm answering my own question
here, but are you inclined togo up to her and say, hey,
just so you know there is somebodybehind you although she might think you're
crazy or you know, call thepolice, who knows, But are you
ever inclined to just tap him onthe shoulder, say just so you know?
Blah blah blah. Okay, SoI get asked this all the time,
and for me personally, I don'tdo it. And the only reason
(06:39):
why I don't is because I tryto be as ethical as possible with my
gifts. I don't answer medical questions. I don't do things like that.
I'm not a doctor, so whatI do sometimes is very hard for other
people to believe and other people toaccept, and sometimes they just don't want
to hear it. It hurts,you know, losing love one hurts.
(07:01):
And I never go up to themand say, hey, just so you
know this person is here. AndI kind of feel bad for not doing
that because I know that they wantto make that connection. But then on
the other hand, I don't becauseI don't know what their personal beliefs are.
I don't know if maybe they're ina mindset of wanting to hear that.
(07:23):
I don't know if they would beopen to hearing it. So I
kind of feel like if I dothat, I would impede my thoughts onto
them, and they it might notbe something that they want to hear,
even though I really do want to. But I just I try to respect
people's boundaries and beliefs and if someone'sopen to it and they want a reading
(07:45):
from me, then then they,you know, get a reading from me,
and I'll tell them everything. Butif it's someone you know that's just
out in public, I just kindof think that it might not be the
best to go up to them andsay hey, by the way, even
though more than likely they might beinto it, But I just don't think
it's my place to decide that forthem. I guess I totally understand that,
totally get it, you know,and you never know how they're going
(08:05):
to react to what they're going through. Maybe they're getting over certain things and
you bring it up and it's anold wound. I completely get that,
but I also get the urge totell them too, even though yeah,
I think I would do the exactsame thing. I would be I would
be a mirror image of what youdid. I would do the same thing.
So we're definitely in step on that. Not that it matters what I
would do. You know, doyou do? You obviously, But that's
(08:26):
so fascinating me. I'll get intoall the other stories in a second,
But do you have another example likethat? Just walking in a store?
And that is why is that fascinatingto me so much? Oh? I
mean, I have tons of them. I mean, okay, so just
just to go back a tiny bitlike for I always tell people to imagine
the ocean pitch black, right,And that's how the spirit world sees our
(08:50):
world until they see someone like me. And I am like a bright,
bright lighthouse, shining beacon. Sothey are practed to me, like a
moth to a flame. So oncethey're around and they see my light,
they go, oh my god,you can talk to me, you can
hear me, you can see me, and they run up to me all
(09:11):
the time. So I could beat home making dinner, I could be
at a grocery store, I couldbe at my son's school, I could
be wherever, and as long asI have myself open to it, they
can see me, and they theyfind me, they seek me out.
They I don't know from what distancethey can see me from. I wish
(09:31):
I knew, but there's even thingsthat I don't know. So when I'm
out and about at stores, it'sfairly common and fairly normal. I remember
when I didn't used to work formyself doing social media and readings, and
I worked in the healthcare field.I remember I was sitting in the in
my office and I could see outsidethe window, and I just had this
(09:56):
spirit walking back and forth, pacingand just staring at me outside your like
in your house or where was itthat once again? When I was when
I was working, I used towork in medical office before I worked for
myself. Yeah, And he wasjust pacing outside the front of the of
the office until I went out thereand I'm like, listen, do you
do you want to say something?I know you see me, and you
(10:18):
know that I see you, Sowhat are you doing? Because you're distracting
me. Sometimes it just becomes alittle bit of a nuisance. It's horrible
sometimes when I don't close myself offbefore I go to sleep, Like if
I fall asleep before I have achance to I have woken up so many
times by spirits poking at me,just standing over me, bothering me,
(10:39):
and it's just more of a nuisance. At this point, It's like,
just let me sleep and then andthen we'll talk. Don't wake me up,
Okay, So okay, so manyquestions here, the the spirit pacing
back and forth outside of your window. There, did you went out there
and said, hey, what's what'sup? Basically, what was the response.
Would they say, he he justtold me, he said you can.
(11:01):
He goes, you can see me, and I said, yeah,
I can see you, and hegoes, okay, and then just leave.
They literally said okay, and thenthey just leave. I remember one
time I was leaving a Walmart andI was, you know, in reverse,
pulling my car out, and Isaw a spirit coming towards me,
(11:22):
and I just remember looking down tojust put it in drive, and by
the time I put it in drive, they were gone. I mean they
pop in and out so frequently aroundme. People don't realize that there are
spirits free roaming around, just likethere are us roaming around. It's just
not as there's not as many obviously, but they're all around us all the
(11:48):
time. I get what's called Idon't know what to call them, but
I just call them passerbys. Sothere's free roaming spirits all the time.
And sometimes they can walk up tome, or walk into my home,
or walk wherever I am, becauselike I said, they're attracted to me
and they're just passing by. They'rejust going, oh okay, and then
they leave. I was having dinnerwith my family a few months ago and
(12:13):
I could feel. I literally hadmy back to the door, but I
could feel when running in and assoon as I turn around to my right,
I can feel it running in.My brother turned over to his left,
looking the same direction, and it'sjust like you can sometimes feel this
tenseness and this pressure coming the spirit. It was a female. She ran
(12:35):
up to me, looked at me, and ran away. She knocked my
brother's jacket off the back of achair that no one was sitting in,
and she ran away, and mybrother just kind of looked at me and
goes, uh, and I waslike, yeah, we'll talk about it
later, you know. So hedidn't see her, but he saw the
jacket fly or you know, getpushed off the chair. I think he
felt the pressure of her running in. There are people like me that can
(12:58):
see things, and then there arepeople that are just a little bit sensitive
and you can feel like a thicknessin the air, a heaviness, a
change, a pressure moving in.And then there are people that won't won't
see it or feel it even ifit hit them in the face. So
it just depends on what level ofsensitivity that you have. Random question when
you're when you're backing your car up. I'm not sure if your car has
(13:20):
one of those cameras in the back, you know, but would they show
up on the cam if that,if the spirit was behind you, would
the show up on that camera.Now, it just depends on their level
of energy that they do have,but they can show up on a frontward
or backward facing camera. I havenever had one stand behind my car,
(13:41):
but I'm sure that if they did, and they had enough energy to show
themselves like that, then absolutely theycould. Okay, God, this is
every time you open your mouth,I have fifty questions, so fast,
oh man, when you're sleeping tome, this is uh. I mean,
I know you you said you're somewhatdesensitized to it because this is what
you do. And I'm sure someof these spirits you know, are just
(14:03):
people you know, and as peoplego, some are nice, some are
not nice. But even the niceones, if a random unknown like you
didn't know this nice person was hangingout in your house, that would still
be frightening because you don't know this. They might be a beautiful human being,
but they're in your house. It'sjust crazy. Same thing with these
spirits. You wake up, Whatis that like because I picture the movie
the sixth sense. You know,I see dead people. This one I'm
(14:24):
picturing, which is that's kind ofyour life in a way. I don't
know how much there is two thathow real that movie is or whatnot,
but or how real that movie iscompared to what you see. Nonetheless,
what is it like waking up andthere is you know, one or maybe
I don't know, a room fullof people looking at you. Like I
said before, sometimes it's more ofa nuisance, especially when they wake me
(14:46):
up in the middle of the night. I have issues with sleeping in general,
so once I get to sleep,I want a good, solid sleep,
like just leave me be. Soit can be a little bit of
a natiance. But in all honesty, I understand on their part because finding
someone like me that they can actuallyinteract with is very very rare. So
(15:07):
I understand on their part once theysee me, they want to seize the
opportunity. I don't think, well, I know that in the spirit world
there is no concept of time,So maybe like two weeks for us might
be a five minutes or twenty minutesto them if I had to put a
(15:28):
timeframe on it. But there reallyis no concept of time. I don't
know if for them there's a differentialbetween night and day. I just I
don't, Like I said, thereare certain things that I don't know.
So I don't think that they understandsometimes that you're sleeping, even though they
see you sleeping. But I don'tthink to them they really put too much
(15:48):
thought behind it. So when theysee me, it's like they're not going
to wait around for me to wakeup. They're going, oh my god,
hey, hey, can you reallysee me? I can to you.
It's like they can feel that Iam different. They can tell that
I am different even when I'm sleeping, So I don't know how they see
me differently. But even if I'mnot blatantly looking at them, they can
(16:14):
tell that I am different, sothey have no problem waking me up.
It can be a little creepy sometimeswhen you wake up out of bed and
you have people standing there and staringat you. But it doesn't happen all
too too often that they're waking meup at a sleep and staring at me.
I would say maybe like once aweek, even though it could be
(16:36):
happening every day, Probably about likeonce a week I wake up and there's
spirits around me. What's the mostamount of Have you ever woken up and
you have like a full on audienceaudience spirits. I had a group of
three one time, and they weretwo children and a woman, and they
were staring at me, and Ikind of woke up and and you know,
(17:00):
I'm rubbing sleep out of my eyesand I'm I look at her and
I'm like hi, And then thekids are just looking at me, and
she's just standing there and she's notsaying anything to me. And I think
that she was more like in aweand fascinated. And I could tell that
these people were not of our timeperiod. They were not they were from
(17:26):
They looked like they were dressed inI would say, eighteen hundreds. And
I was actually at an airbnb withsome friends on a vacation and we were
in the mountains in Tennessee. SoI would not be surprised. If you
know, people are attached to theland, not the houses or anything like
that. They're attached to the land. So I wouldn't be surprised, if
(17:47):
you know, she could tell thatI was different and then wanted to come
take a look and brought our kidswith her. What do what do they
typically I'm sure everyone's a little different, but I guess the one story about
the guy just wanted you to theguy that was pacing just wanted to know
if you could see him. Whatdo they typically want? Like my guests
before I started talking to you,would be people would want to talk to
(18:07):
you to give a message to someoneelse. But I'm getting from this conversation
they just want to know that yousee them. A lot of times.
What it is and I always tellpeople the most that they want, majority
of the time is acknowledgment. Thatis why when you have a random spirit
in your home, because like Isaid, you have those passerbys all the
(18:29):
time that are moving around. Whenyou have a random spirit in your home
and they make noise or they movethings around, they literally just want acknowledgment.
They want to be noticed, Theywant to be seen. There are
a lot of times where I dohave spirits talk to me and they want
me to When someone says messages,it's not like they have a unique message
(18:51):
like hey, this is the secretspice to Grandma's recipe that I never got
to tell you. It's normally alongthe lines of can you please let this
person know I I'm still here.Can you please let them know I hear
them? Can you please let themknow I'm I'm all. I'm around them
all the time. They just can'ttell. And that normally happens when it's
a spirit that's around someone that's outin public. But when they come to
(19:14):
me in my home or when I'min private, it's normally just they want
that acknowledgement and they want to lookat me because to me or to them,
I'm I'm way I'm I'm like aspectacle. I'm way different. They're
shocked that I can see them andtalk to them. I bet you are.
Like when a business opens, youknow, hey, we're open for
business, the big sign blinking opencoming. That's basically you walking around to
(19:37):
the spirit world pretty much. Andthat's what I think it is. And
that's the best way analogy I canI can give is like just pitch your
like pitch black and then a reallybright lighthouse. I mean, that's how
they see me. They they flockto me sometimes. Okay, this is
what you've described so far, seemsto be you know, spirits. You
know, most of them just normalpeople passed on curious about you, it
(20:02):
seems kind of nice, you know, scary because of what it is in
the unknown, but it seems kindof kind of nice. But I know
the one thing and this, thisthis particular story which I don't know how
the story unfolds, but you've encountereda demon or demons and or poultergeist.
So let's let's jump from that thatend of the pool into the deep end.
Okay, what is this about?What happened? Give me everything on
(20:22):
this please. Okay. So asfor as many people that I have stumbled
upon spirit wise that are good andmean no harm, there are plenty that
I have stumbled upon that that areharmful. There are plenty that I have
stumbled upon that want to harm andwant to hurt and want to be malicious.
(20:45):
Now, this particular instance was I'vehad control of my gifts for a
very long time, and really goodcontrol of them, but this was at
a time where I didn't have alot of control, and this in particular,
poultrygeist or demon, whatever you wantto call it, really reaked a
(21:06):
lot of havoc in my home.For example, they are very much attracted
to me. So when I grewup, people used to always tell me,
Oh my gosh, your houses arealways haunted. And I used to
always tell them, I said,it's not the house, it's me.
They're attracted to me. So whereverI go, you and I could be
roommates. Our house would be bumpingall the time. My house. I
(21:29):
have a ten year old son,and he's so used to it. He'll
we'll hear things falling in the kitchenand we'll both be in our separate bedrooms
and he'll come up to me andsaying, hey, can you can you
talk to your friends? You know? So this particular home that I lived
in with my ex husband and ourkids was just absolutely crazy. Once this
(21:52):
dark spirit, demon, poultrygeist,whatever you want to call it, came
into my home, I think itknew that I didn't fight it off at
the time because I didn't have alot of control over my gifts at the
time. I was younger, andit took advantage of that greatly. I
had things flying around my home,things flying off the walls. I had
(22:15):
pictures that would fly off of youknow, like a sofa, table and
stuff. They would fly across myhome. I had my husband at the
time, he was getting hit.He was getting scratched all the time.
We had this odd intercom. Itwas a townhouse. We had this odd
intercom by our front door that servedabsolutely no purpose because there was no buzzing
(22:37):
someone in or letting them in abuilding. It was. It was open,
and we used to always joke around. We didn't know what that intercom
was for. And we had livedin this home for almost four years.
So one time my husband and Iwere sitting on the couch and we were
talking and we had brought up theintercom and he I remember, he had
said to me, he goes,he goes. You know, it's funny,
he goes. I've always been waitingfor a noise to come out of
(23:00):
and it just never happens, Ikid you, not. Not even three
seconds pass by and the most audible, loud like sheer, high pitched screech
came out of this intercom and itlasted for about a good ten seconds.
And it's just it's crazy how thesespirits, especially dark darker spirits, tend
(23:26):
to be a lot stronger. Theytend to have a lot more energy,
They tend to be able to doa lot more so they can wreak a
lot more havoc I had. Wehad a dog at the time, and
there was a cage in one ofour hallways for the dog, and I
would be sitting on the couch andthe dog would be with me, and
you could hear the cage door tothe dog cage just slamming all the time,
(23:51):
just bang, bang, bang bang. It could be the daytime,
it could be the nighttime. Itdid not matter. You could walk into
our home and you would smell thisrotten smell and it wasn't for me.
It wasn't from anything in the house. They have the ability to give off
smells, just like you know,nicer spirits can have you smell perfume,
or you might smell cigarette smoke offof one. Well, this in particular,
(24:14):
one wanted to give like a rottenputriid smell, which was not that
nice. We went grocery shopping onenight. You know those really large laundry
detergents where it has like the poorspout on it. They're like twenty dollars
apiece. They're so large, right, I had one sitting on my on
the bar of our kitchen or unloadinggroceries, and it flew ten feet across
(24:37):
the room. Goodness, Lord,and those are heavy. You would see
dark shadows in the in the house. You our dog would not go certain
places in the house. It wouldstart barking, it would cry, it
would shake, it would it woulduh. It would hide under couches and
tables. There was bangs on thewall. And at the time, like
(25:00):
I said, I wasn't as prominentwith my gifts, so I could see
it little pieces of it, butit moved around so much, and it
hid so much from me that itwas hard to It was hard to really
fight it off. And eventually,after about six months of this, it
just kind of moved on. ButI mean, you know, my husband
(25:22):
at the time, he would tellme. He asked me one morning,
he said, were you hitting mein my head when I was sleeping?
And I said, no, whywould I do that? And he goes,
He goes, Vanessa, He goes, I swear I felt like I
was getting punched at the top ofmy head like five or six times at
night, and he goes, Iwould constantly wake up and I just didn't
(25:44):
know if maybe you were fighting somethingin your dream or or what. He
would have deep cuts and scratches onhim, or he would be bleeding it
was. It was pretty bad.This is mind blowing. M M,
my god, the everything you justtold me, there was that one.
Do you think that was just onemain or one demon poultergeyst Was it one
in particular or was that multiple?Yeah, it was definitely. It definitely
(26:07):
felt like the same one all thetime because the tricks that they would that
they would do, the things thatthey would do, or a lot of
the same. There was a familypicture that was taken in front of a
church at a at a wedding,and this particular picture, no matter where
I put it in my home,it would always end up across the house.
(26:30):
Whether we were home or not,it would end up across the house.
The glass would break. It gotto the point where I just didn't
even put the picture up again,because it probably happened about six or seven
times we would leave our home.Sometimes. There was one time where we
had gotten home and this was shortlyafter I had had our baby, and
we had gotten home when we werefirst bringing the baby home, and when
(26:53):
we had opened up our front door, it looked like our house got ransacked.
It looked like someone had tossed ourhouse maybe broken, and my husband
was saying no, he goes thedoor was locked. And this was,
you know, towards the beginning ofthe activity, I had a newborn baby
at home and it was rough.You know, this spirit and in particular,
(27:18):
had the ability and strength and energyto pretty much do whatever he wanted.
I remember we would wake up inthe morning, and my husband was
normally the first person up in themorning. Sometimes and all of our knives
out of our kitchen drawers would besitting on the counter and it would happen
constantly. We would wake up andall of the cabinets would be open,
(27:41):
things would be flung out of thecabinets. I could not tell you the
amount of broken glass and broken plates, cups, picture frames. It got
to the point where anything that couldbreak and shatter, I packed it in
boxes because I was so sick ofhaving to clean up glass. You know,
you clean up the best you can, but you know, late at
(28:03):
night, you're walking through the kitchenand you get a little silver or glass
at your foot. And it hadhappened to us so many times that we
were just sick of having to cleanup glass. So we took down our
picture frames, anything that could bebroken. We lost a TV On one
morning, we woke up super earlyin the morning about I would say four
(28:26):
thirty five am to a really loudcrash in the living room and our TV
at the time, I think itwas like maybe like a sixty inch TV
at the time was flung across theroom and into like an office slash hallway,
kind of like little nook, andso it was about I would say,
(28:49):
fifteen twenty feet away from the entertainmentcenter. It had been sitting on
for years without even moving, andit was shattered and broken. So wow,
Yeah, this in particular spirit wasTo say he was strong would be
an understatement. Do you think itwas a just a bad person that crossed
(29:11):
over or are we talking a demon? I mean, I don't know if
if you could tell the difference,but I would I would definitely say this
would be more of a demon culturegeist activity. Just by the level of
strength that he had, I woulddefinitely classify him as being in the category
(29:32):
of not just a normal person thathas passed. You know, there are
things in our world that we cannotexplain and the average person cannot see.
Just as much like I was sayingthat there is light, there is dark,
there is that balance, that thatying and yang. You can't have
good without bad. So there isa lot of demons and poultrygeist whatever you
(29:59):
want to call them, dark entities, dark spirits that I don't think are
just people that have passed. Letme ask on this. When you when
you encountered this, this demon,your gifts weren't super strong at that point.
Since you've honed your gifts and you'veyou know, this is your career
now and you're I guess the phrase, you're a professional with this now.
You know you've grown so much atit. Have you encountered anything like that,
(30:22):
you know in this stage of yourcareer? And if so, oh
absolutely, how did that encounter go? Okay? So now when it happens,
I have I was at a partyone time, and I didn't know
at the time, but there wasa girl who was into doing dark things.
I never met her, and Icould she literally felt like she had
(30:45):
a demon with her when I whenI saw her, I saw her across
the room and as soon as thatdemon, I guess per se. I
don't know what else to call himother than he felt like demonic to me.
As soon as he saw me,he came running up to me,
and I was like, you knowwhat, just just leave me alone.
I'm I'm so much more confident inmy and my abilities, my skills,
(31:06):
uh, what I'm able to do. I can ignore them and fight them
off for the most part, veryeasily. Now. I have had it
where they'll try to stick around andlinger around, maybe for a day or
two. But once they realize thatthey're not going to get the rise out
of me, they're not going tothey're not going to scare me, they're
not going to upset me in theways that they want, they kind of
(31:30):
move on. It's kind of likea like a bully when you when you're
bully standing there making fun of you, and you're just like, okay,
I don't care. It's they losetheir interest. What's it like for you
walking around? Uh, we've talkedabout you walking around just grocery stores and
best Buy that I think that storyis going to stick in my head for
a while. For someone like youto walk through a place we'd consider extremely
(31:53):
active hospitals, unfortunately graveyards, forsomeone like you to walk through there,
that must be like it's madness,right, I love it. I absolutely
love it. I right before Imoved. When I lived in Orlando,
I lived literally maybe a half ablock from one of the most famous medical
(32:17):
examiners in the city of Orlando.So there was plenty of people that have
just passed. So when you whenwhen you pass away, you get a
very large burst of energy right inthe beginning, right off the bat,
and then it dies down and yourenergy you'll start building back. So living
(32:39):
half of a block from a placewhere you're where, you're getting people multiple
times a day that have just passed. My house exploded with activity because they
could see me. They would runup to me all the time. A
lot of times they were confused,sometimes they weren't, sometimes they didn't understand
where they were. It was.It was pretty wild. But going to
(33:02):
graveyards, going to quote unquote hauntedplaces, I absolutely love it because I'm
not scared of it. I'm soused to it, and like I said,
I'm so desensitized to so much ofit. It doesn't shock me or
surprise me or scare me anymore.But I love that kind of stuff.
I love to have these interactions.I love to go to places that are
(33:27):
you know, haunted per se.I live about forty five minutes away from
one of I think it's either theoldest city or one of the oldest cities.
Are you familiar with Saint Augustine.I know, I don't know much
about the specifics of it, butyes, I know some a little bit
of the history. Okay, SoSaint Augustine, just a little bit of
it is Uh, there's a bigfort there. It was a Spanish,
(33:50):
a Spanish colony. There have beenmany battles and fights there at the fort
of the city, almost getting sieged. The city has burned down twice.
There is open historic graveyards all over. There is a lot of historic I
mean, these are buildings from likethe eighteen hundreds, seventeen hundreds. These
(34:13):
streets are the most narrow cobblestone streets. The buildings are made from this shell
concrete mixture called cookina. I mean, this place is old and it's very
historic. I love going there becausewhen I go there, I get bombarded
by so many spirits and they're allvery, very, very old. And
(34:36):
I love seeing stuff like that.It's like I can see history of that
time right in front of me.How exciting to put it like that.
I mean, it's amazing. Wow, walking through a museum, you see
a picture of a historic moment,and then you, you know, you
turn around and kind of glance acrossthe room and you see someone you know.
I would imagine at times it lookskind of like the famous picture on
(34:59):
the wall. Yeah, yeah,absolutely, Okay, what is it?
I assume? Well, let mejust jump to a couple of things.
You have picture evidence of some thingsthat have happened in your house. You've
taken photos or videos or what isthat you mentioned that to me? Okay,
so I do have some pictures ofsome regular things. But one of
my most prominent pictures I have,and I've never come forward with this on
(35:23):
social media or anything like that.I took multiple pictures, but there's two
in particular of the house that Iused to live in that was right by
the medical Examiner's office. I have, you know, the cameras around the
house, on the exteriors of thehouse, and in my backyard. I
(35:43):
have a camera that I had justput two fresh batteries in so that it
should have been good to go forat least a couple of weeks there.
And I was outside walking my dogand I felt this heaviness in this presence
that was around, but I couldn'tsee them just yet. They were still
at a distance. I go in, and this presence actually kind of made
me feel uncomfortable, and normally theydon't really make me feel uncomfortable, but
(36:07):
there was something about it that waslike, I don't know if I like
this, so I'm just going toleave this one alone. So I went
in my home and then my backyardcamera started to go off and I caught
two still shots of you could seea female walking in a medical gown,
like a you know, a hospitalgown. You could see a female clear
(36:28):
as day walking in a hospital gown, and then you see a very dark
demon spirit, whatever you want tocall it. I personally believe this is
someone that I would call it acollector, and I think that he collects
darker people. And you could clearlysee him, plain as day, coming
(36:52):
to take her no and yeah,and you could see the things like I
could show you in the photo,the things that were around. You could
see them in like a smoky kindof haze, but they're also very clear
at the same time, and Icould explain to you what he looked like
to me, because if you lookat the photo, you're going to see
it one way, and I'm goingto see it completely another because I can
(37:14):
tell exactly what's there. But youcan literally see in the photo how descriptive
it is. When I pointed outto you it's it was some dark stuff
the collector. That sounds like ascary movie, a horror movie for starting.
But you see a lady. Justto cover it one more time,
you see a lady in a medicalgown and this guy is coming to collect
(37:36):
her. As far as you cantell, that's what you believe. Yes,
yes, Now, most of thetime when you pass away, majority
of the time, say you know, grandma's been sick for a while,
she's in the hospital or hospice orat home. Majority of the time when
someone passes, because they show methis all the time when I do my
private readings, you have a familymember come and get them. It's kind
(37:57):
of like, hey, we're here, it's time to go, and they
take them by the hand, theygo up with them. Sometimes they kind
of fight it off or say youknow, I'm not ready, or something
like that along those lines, buta lot of times they take them by
the hand and they take them upwherever they are. Whether you want to
call it the spirit, world,heaven, whatever you want to call it,
okay. And then shortly after thatthere your body, your vessel will
(38:20):
expire, so their soul, spirit, their essence leaves their body and then
the body will expire. So majorityof the time when someone passes, they're
not there for that death. Nowthere are times where that it doesn't exactly
happen like that, but majority ofthe time that is how it happens.
This in particular instance. You knowhow I was saying, there has to
(38:42):
be dark, because there is light. You have it there, There always
is both. You have people thatdo dark sighted things when they are living.
You have people, I guess Ihate to say the word quote unquote
they try to sell their soul tothe devil. But it's kind of along
those lines. You have people thatare not good, people that don't get
(39:04):
to go to a good place afteryou pass, if that's what you believe
in. So you have these darkpeople. And I think that this is
where a collector comes into play,because when I show you this picture,
I'll show it to you afterwards ifyou want to see it. You can
see the darkness of this entity.You can feel it just looking at it.
It will send chills down your spine. Even to the average person.
(39:28):
You can tell there is darkness there. And he was absolutely coming to take
her with him wherever he was going. That's where they were going. So
do you consider this? Would youconsider this collector evil or was he collecting
evil or both? I would sayboth. I would say absolutely both.
I mean, granted, I've onlyseen a collector like that one time in
(39:55):
photo, but I have seen acollector at a distance one time when I
was in a hospital when my motherpassed away, and I saw it way
across, you know, like thehospitals have really long corridors, you know,
always, and I saw it ata distance, and even then because
(40:15):
my mother passed away almost ten yearsago, so even then, I was
like, I saw it and Iknew what it was. It's like even
with my gifts, I see things, not even ever seeing it before in
my life, but I hear thingsin my head, I feel things in
my gut, and I could justtell what it is. I get information
so many different ways being a psychicmedium that it's like it's just integrained into
(40:39):
me. When I see certain things, I'm like, ooh, that's what
that is, And I could justtell the collect when you saw that in
the hospital when you're with your mom. I assume he wasn't coming to collect
your mom. He was off tosomething. Yeah, no, my mom
was a nice lady. This okay, this this scene is that what I'm
picturing in my head is this collectoralmost like the grim Reaper, but you
(41:00):
know, and the lady was it. No, he wasn't running or anything
like that. It's like you couldtell in the photo that the female was
at a pace where she was walking. You can see her legs, you
could see the gown like moving likeit was like there was a movement like
she was walking, like there wasa good stride there, and he just
(41:20):
stops in front of her, andyou can tell at that minute he's going
to come grab her. Now.Right after that happened, I got two
still shots of it, and mycamera completely died. The batteries were drained,
and there were two brand new batteries. So these spirits, entities,
everything like that soaks up a lotof energy, a lot of energy.
(41:42):
There was actually there's actually one placethat I actually do not like to go,
and I'm not sure if I canmention it on here. It was
a place where a tragic event tookplace? Would that be possible to mention
it? Sure? I mean,I have no problem with it, if
that's okay with you, Okay,Yeah, do you remember the Pulse nightclub
(42:04):
that took place? Yeah, Iknow exactly what you're talking about. Yeah.
I lived about five minutes away fromthe Pulse nightclub when I lived in
Orlando, and right by the PulseNightclub there was a Target over by there.
There was a lot of stores thatI would frequent and it's been turned
into a beautiful memorial for years now, but the building is still standing.
(42:27):
Trauma and events wars everything. Itsoaks and integrains into the land. It
goes into the stone, into theconcrete. It makes an imprint, and
the imprint will stay. The moretraumatic of the event, the imprint will
last and stay. So any timethat I would pass by the memorial,
(42:52):
because like I said, the buildingwhere it took place is still standing,
I would go to Target all thetime and I would have to ask by
the building. And every time Ipassed by the building, I would have
to blast music in my car becauseI would hear nothing but screaming and screaming
and screaming. It's like I couldhear everything that took place before, during,
(43:15):
and after. It is for me, it was very hard to pass
by that frequently and try to tunethat out. That energy was so strong
still there, that that was aplace that I did not like to go.
So even for me, there's placesthat are a little bit hard,
but that is the only one thatI've really struggled with, you know,
(43:36):
because it was so tragic, andit was so close to home, and
it was absolutely horrible what took placethere, And even for me, that
was hard to pass by all thetime. Goodness, great, Vanessa,
that's got to be well. Firstof all, God bless them people.
That's just terrible. And if youdriving by there reliving this, you and
I need to do a couple oflike part one, part two, because
(43:58):
you've got so much. I couldtalk to you forever, and I want
to. I want to do aninvestigation with you at some point. I
would love that, Oh I would. I would absolutely love it. I
mean, if you ever want to, like whenever you want to, like,
have me on listen bother me everyevery week. I don't care.
I'm I'm an open book. Done. I would be more than happy to
(44:20):
do like investigations with you. I'venever got to do that with someone,
but I would love to. Ithink that would be awesome. Let's wrap
it up with this. People callyou for a variety of reasons, and
you guys need to check around onsocials. I think, uh, it's
me Vanessa Duh. Pretty much allof your socials. Check around on most,
if not all platforms. It's meVanessa da d u H. Greatest,
(44:43):
yeah, greatest, you know nameever people call you, I assume
to psychic readings. How my lovedone doing cleanse my house? Do they
ever do that? Well? I'vehad people ask me how to cleanse their
house, and I've had people callme for a multitude of reasons. They'll
ask me, you know, psychicallyabout things about family members, about career,
(45:06):
love readings I do connections with obviouslyfrom with their family members. On
the other side, I've had peoplecall me and they'll ask me about some
you know, things that are goingon in their home and what they can
do to maybe calm it down orwhat's going on. And a lot of
times I can see what's going onin their home. They don't have to
tell me. I can tell them. I'm very skilled at what I do
(45:28):
and I'm very thankful for the giftsthat I have. People ask me about
their past lives. I do pastlife readings, Like when I go live
on Facebook. I mostly go liveon YouTube and Facebook at the same time,
but when I go live, Ihave I'll do readings and stuff like
that for the people that are watching. I make content on YouTube all the
time, which I'm starting to getbetter at, but I have people contact
(45:52):
me all the time about things thatthey're seeing on my content and they're like,
hey, can you do this forme? So in my private readings.
Pretty much, whatever they're needing,I'm willing to do as long as
I have the capability to help them. Well, if you guys need to
chat with her for any variety ofreasons, it's me Vanessa duh on you
know, all platforms reach out toher and uh, Vanessa, let's start
(46:14):
making some next. I'll consider thisas far as Paranormalist, the introduction to
you to this audience, you know, and this audience has grown too,
and I'm just I consider this anupstart podcast even though it's been on for
a little bit, you know,just but it's a passion project. But
uh, I think the next coupleof ones we do. Let's just start.
Let's let's think of like specific xlike three events. Give me three
events for the next podcast. Thetime you did this, the time this
(46:37):
happened, or whatever. I don'tI'm just spitballing here, but I need
to have you back on multiple episodes. You are beyond fascinating. This is
thank you so much, and you'rewelcome. And the collector that sends the
demon and the I guess the namethe collector sends chills through my spine.
I'm trying. I'm picturing this grimreaper figure. What did what did the
(46:59):
what did the collector look like?Once again, if I guess, if
you had to put a picture ofit, you could picture a grim reaper
per se type. I'll have toshow you the picture. It is absolutely
crazy what he looked like. ButI guess the best way to put it
(47:21):
is to me how I see it. I saw him as kind of like
a grim reaper type figure, andyou can see things around his body that
look scary. He has these likelittle devil dog looking creatures that are also
around him as well that are demoniclooking. Wow. So yeah, it's
it's pretty creepy. But to meit's creepy. But to me also,
(47:43):
like I said, I'm so usedto these things. Even to me,
seeing things like that is absolutely fascinating. Oh you know what I'll have to
tell you about next time. TheAngel of Death. He's beautiful. God,
Okay, that's writing that down episode. Yeah, remind me, remind
me to tell you about the Angelof Death because he is absolutely stunning.
Is the more to the story onthe collector as well? Was he tall
that he had? I keep sayingthe Grim Reaper? But you know the
(48:06):
Grim Reaper has, you know,the big hood on and the big knife
thing. I forget if that's calledclearly that wasn't the case. What was
he wearing or could you even makethat out? I don't remember off the
top of my head. I dohave the pictures on my phone and I
can go back and look, soyou can see a dark figure you can
see Do you want me to textit to you real quick? Sure?
(48:28):
Okay, got I'm afraid this isgoing to be a terrifying And I'm guessing
the lady that he's collecting, Imean, she knows what's coming. Yeah,
yeah, she's she there's you can'thide from him. Okay, I
just texted you the photo. Sowhen you look at the photo, you
will see the woman in the hospitalgown on the left hand side. Okay,
(48:50):
I think I think it's a bitdark, but I think I see
right. You see the circle,you can see her, You see her
arms, you can see her feet, you can see the hospital gown clear
as day. Okay. Do yousee the black shadow that's around her?
I think so. I see somethingkind of tall, yeah, and then
you could see you see the littlethe little white shadows that would be around
his feet. They look like theyhave like little ears. Yep, those
(49:13):
are the little demon dogs I'm talkingabout. Now. I can see this
plain as day better than you canbecause I know what I'm looking at.
But that is that is the collector'sand he is there to collect her.
I have chills, no, Granted, I'm it's gonna take me a second
to make out some of this,but I can see the little dog characters.
I can see her outline pretty well. I see some some blurriness around
(49:35):
her as well. Maybe that's heraura, maybe that's something after her.
So I do I did have somethings in the backyard, but that was
not part of it. I thinkthe white parts that you're seeing coming off
of his hand, I think thatthat is part of him. That is
him trying to grab her and takeher. If you zoom in on the
photo, you can literally see youcan see her arms and her feet at
(49:59):
a stride. You can see herhead and where he's reaching out her head.
That's how I see the photo.But you can definitely tell it.
But you can definitely tell even inthe photo that there's no denying what's there
that is Oh my god, whatthe heck am I looking at? Welcome
(50:22):
to my life, Oh my lord? All right, Part two and beyond
coming soon. Her name's Vanessa Stewart. Vanessa, thank you so much.
I really appreciate it. We'll definitelytalk again very soon. Thank you absolutely,
thank you for having me.
