Episode notes

When Ashley was only 11 years old, she moved back to her parent's home country of Mexico. While the transition was difficult at first, she came to love her new life. Most of all, this move allowed her to develop a meaningful relationship with her grandfather whose life was full of grand stories. It wasn't until she was older though, that her grandfather confessed a traumatic moment in his life that surprisingly revealed just how much the paranormal is woven into her family history.Check out our Merch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow us on:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠…
