Speaker 2:
so we're just checking the yeah we're not.
Speaker 1:
We don't you guys never use Polaroids? Yeah, I do have a Polaroid at home. I never believed in any of that until a friend of mine for a senior project went to you.
Speaker 2:
Ever hear of Oakvale, oakvale, where did that one happen? Oakvale is one of the last mental hospitals that was in the state. It's over in Lapeer oh, you can actually walk the trails and they were the last place to do lobotomies. Oh Well, they had fields and everything that all the metal patients, would you know, take care of when they grew all their own food and everything. Yeah, they also had their own cemeteries, which they were just putting numbers on for the inmates, right. So she goes back there and takes a Polaroid of the grave and you can flat out see somebody's face rising up out of this grave on the Polaroid.
Speaker 1:
Yeah, there's a documentary on netflix about that.
Speaker 2:
You should check out oakdale though it's right over here really, oakdale we got our apps running like such dorks.
Speaker 1:
Sorry, no, we don't. We don't destruct, we don't do anything bad. We always close the gate before we leave. That's what we were worried about.
Speaker 2:
We get kids out here, they'll start knocking over. They ruin it for all us. We were here one time and the owner of this house came out and said that a bunch of kids come out here. At first we just seen the car and I didn't see if anybody was in there.
Speaker 1:
Oh, but his boyfriend's sleeping in the back. But you want my license? No, you're all good, michael doesn't like it.
Speaker 2:
He doesn't like the golf. What are you chicken? I don't blame you.
Speaker 1:
I wouldn't get out of the car either. Tell them what happened when you guys pulled up your first time here. Oh, I said my name and then it said pinball. He has a pinball business.
Speaker 2:
No, I'd be sitting in the truck too. I don't push my luck because any more than I have to.
Speaker 1:
This is a beautiful cemetery, though During the day when they had that part back there, what's the whole district?
Speaker 2:
That's a good question 1817, I think, is what we found. What you guys should do is go down here, go all the way down to Mill Road, hook a left. Go up into the village. You'll hit the four-way light, take Okay, hook a left. Go up into the village, you'll hit the four-way light, take a right and then go down to Mahalan Mahalan Yep, it's right in the village. You'll take a right on Mahalan. There's a cemetery back there. It's huge and I don't even know about it. I hate to say it, but it's full of kids Like. You'll walk through there and you know it's like 1820s Because a Is it this one?
Speaker 1:
I don't know. We found this Like we were just driving and I was like drawn to it. I was like, oh, we've got to get out and look at this.
Speaker 2:
There's all sorts of these down here. If you go down Huff Road, take right on Huff Road, go down about four miles. There's one down there too.
Speaker 1:
They used to just bury people wherever they could out here, yeah.
Speaker 2:
So this is LaPierre County, right, yeah, we have. Okay, if you go down to Barbin Road down there, that's what we're looking for. This is an SLS camera. Okay, I like LaPierre, so it's showing energy or spirits or Like my hand. Obviously I'm kind of too close, but, yeah, you can kind of Well, actually sometimes it takes a minute. That's creepy, yeah, when they left it at the car, we're like get that thing out of here.
Speaker 1:
Oh yeah, it lights up. It's a motion bear.
Speaker 2:
I didn't know if that was part of it. It's got a nanny cam in it.
Speaker 1:
Oh yeah, no, I bought it, it's just got a. It's like do you know what a REM pod is, like a 360 motion, like what those hunters use? Yeah, no, it's the same thing, it's just a bear. We call him Super Bear. It's super corny, yeah.
Speaker 1:
I've seen that I got nothing nice to say about that these guys are nothing nice to say, but if like, because I'm sure you guys have had to come in here at nighttime, oh yeah, but like the stars are like always beautiful out here, but then when you come in here it's just pitch black.
Speaker 2:
Just do us a favor and don't stir anything up. Oh yeah, no yeah, we won't. No, we don't. Somebody gets eaten by a poltergeist or something. Sorry, that's out of my job.
Speaker 1:
You guys never seen us.
Speaker 2:
Yeah, call a ghost bus. Thank you, guys Good night Stacey.
Speaker 1:
So I'm not sure exactly what police department that is, but I'm just going to say let's give it up for the Lapeer County Police Department. They were very cool, they were good sports about it and they've also had experiences, as you can hear. Well, at least the one guy did. You know, any time that the cops have ever come, they've always been super cool, very level-headed, like just hey, you guys, okay, everything going good, okay, don't disturb, don't you know? Obviously don't terrorize the cemetery and the people living around it, don't, you know, be destructful any of that. But yeah, I thought this was fun. Um, it was just like me and Kevin were just like, yeah, the cops are here, so let's go walk and talk to them.
Speaker 1:
But, um, yeah, this is one of our favorite cemeteries South Pioneer, um, dryden Cemetery, um, in Lapeer County, also known as Foot Cemetery and Miller Cemetery, and if you guys ever get a chance, go out there and see for yourselves. It is off Casey Road, dryden, michigan, and it's a beautiful, beautiful cemetery, very old, and that is where a lot of our experiences happened in the last year. You guys know about my eye surgery, but I truly believe that the spirits there were guiding me and it happened for a reason for me to get my ass to the eye doctor. Also, my sister-in-law, aka second mother, made me the appointment shortly after the cemetery visit over a year ago and I got my eye fixed. All right, you guys, thanks for listening. Tune in for some more.
