About this episode
In this chilling episode of True Scary Story, Fatima recounts her encounters with the paranormal, which intensified during her pregnancy and after the birth of her daughter. Raised in a religiously complex family, she initially dismissed these experiences as tricks of the mind, but soon, the terrifying reality became impossible to ignore.

Fatima describes eerie sightings of shadows, ghostly orbs, and a menacing little girl who appeared at the foot of her bed. As her experiences grew more intense, they resulted in a terrifying encounter with a sinister woman in a white nightgown, a figure both she and her family members have seen across different homes. Through sleep paralysis, unexplained cold drafts, and terrifying dreams shared by her young children, Fatima realized these hauntings were far from ordinary nightmares. 

Seeking help from a medium and sharing her story with loved ones, she uncovers unsettling connections to her family’s past, including the possibility that the entity could be the restless spirit of a deceased relative. Fatima’s story is a gripping exploration of true horror, filled with spine-tingling moments and eerie revelations that will leave listeners questioning what might be lurking in the dark.

This episode is perfect for those who crave scary true stories, eerie encounters, and tales of the supernatural that will keep you up at night. Listen if you dare, and keep it scary!
