 Hello, everybody. Welcome back to esoteric Atlanta. Of course, my name is Bryce. This is just a little bit of a channel update. Once again, if you hear banging outside, that is that's the continual work on the high rise. That's being literally built like less than 10 feet from my window. So I apologize if you hear some of that noise. Nothing I can really do about it. This week's scheduling got a little bit off because of the storms that we have been having here in the southeast. For all of you guys that are a little bit west of me in the southeast, I hope that you're okay. I understand that a lot of you guys have lost a lot of power for many many consecutive days. A lot of trees are down. I am so so so sorry. I know it's sweltering hot outside and you guys are dealing with no power, have been dealing with no power. So by the time you get power back and you're able to watch this, I hope that you're doing okay. I hope your family is okay, and I hope that you're getting your power back very quickly. I know there's crazy fires in Canada. There's also been some crazy storms down in South Africa as well. And so a lot of the shows that I typically do regularly during the week have had to be postponed or rescheduled due to the weather, not just here in Atlanta, but also in other countries as well. Also this week, Catherine Edwards is not available. Her schedule was different this week. So that's why we talked to you guys last week, but there will be no coffee chat this week. It will resume next week. And also I will be traveling for the next next week for the next couple of weeks. Now with that being said, I am going to try to pre pre-plan some videos to pre-film, to have them pre-scheduled to drop, but I will probably be doing some filming on location. But just expect for the schedule to be a little bit more sporadic for these next couple of weeks due to, yes, again, the weather and me traveling. I also I've done this call out before many, many years ago when I first started this channel, I talked about the phenomenon called shadow people. And I've something has recently happened and I want to re-re-investigate this topic of shadow people. Shadow people, of course, is a modern name for a very, very old phenomenon that has been going on from my research since the beginning of time. I experienced a shadow person again last night and it was the second time in my whole life where I've actually experienced a female shadow person. So for those who don't know what I'm talking about, you can look up shadow people. Again, there's hat men. I've seen the hat man before. There's shadow people with red eyes. And then, of course, only twice in my life have I actually experienced the female, which is different from a hag. Some people will refer to the female as the hag. The hags are different. And I can get that into that into my episode. I am very familiar with hags because that's something that we deal with here in the Southeast a lot. Sorry, I had to stop the recording for a little bit because my boyfriend actually came home. And so anyway, I was just chatting with him, telling him about telling you guys about the shadow person in our bedroom last night. And yes, hags are very different from the female shadow people, hags. I can get into that deeper, as I said, in our deep dive of what a hag is. That's very common. The phenomenon of hags are very common down here in the Southeast. It's very much talked about in the Gullah and Gechi culture, which is the culture that resides in the low country of South Carolina and Georgia, where my mother's family is from. And so they speak a lot about the phenomenon of hags. And again, that's very different from a female shadow person. Female shadow people appear to be a lot younger than a hag. And they're very female. And from my experience, I've only seen the female shadow person twice. The first time I was 24 years old, I was living in Los Angeles. And the second time was last night. Now, I have seen the other types of shadow people. I've seen the hat man. I've seen the one with red eyes multiple times. Those are a little bit scarier than the females. The females, even though they're all, in my opinion, they're all nefarious and malevolent, the female is more hypnotic. Now, my boyfriend actually just told me that he heard her, like she was speaking. So he got up and started pacing around. He thought someone was in our house. And he kept hearing a female speaking. And our dog started to bark. I remember our dog barking. And then I got up and that's when I saw her standing at the base of my bed, our bed, and I told her to leave. And she left. So there's that. But shadow people is interesting. I woke up and I started looking back into it again. I remember that I had talked about this earlier on my channel when I first opened my channel. And so many people responded. It's weird if you look at articles from modern scientists, they will say, oh, it's a figment of your imagination or it's happening between states of being awake and being asleep. And so therefore, it's really just you projecting an image. And that anybody who's ever experienced the shadow person or the hat man will tell you that is just not true. And that is an extreme arrogant position to take with the hat man. The first time I experienced the hat man, it was daytime. Like I was, I was, in fact, most of the times that I've experienced the shadow people or the hat man, I have been fully awake. And it's been in the daytime. So that that's not true. It's not always in states between your your sleep and you're being awake. The woman I saw last night, yes, it was in the middle of the night. Yes, my boyfriend heard something got up. I got up. We were awake. When he heard her talking, he went out and checked the house to make sure no one was in there. Our dog was barking at her. And I also when I woke up, I was fully awake saw her standing there myself. So so no, we were not asleep. And so what I want from you guys is I it's interesting because the internet, the world of the internet will tell you that this is like kind of rare and that people don't, you know, some people have experiences and some people don't. But from my my perspective, all the people I know in my personal life have all experienced this at some point in their lives, they've all seen this what we call the shadow man. And in my perspective, shadow man is not something that's not really a really good description of this entity. I understand why they call it a shadow person, because it's kind of like Peter Pan's shadow. It's like it's it's it's it's fully black. It's but it's an actual entity. It's not it's not see through. Right. And I was thinking this morning, I told the story about my grandfather, my dad's father, he had a near death experience when he was in his mid 40s. And he I'll go ahead and briefly tell you guys this story again if you've missed it. But my grandfather who's no longer with us, but this this was in his mid 40s. He passed he passed away for the second time, the final time in 2017 in his late 80s. But when he was in his mid 40s, long before I was born, he had a major heart attack. And he was rushed to the hospital. My grandfather would tell us the story a lot, his grandchildren, the story a lot. He actually remembers floating up above his body when they were working on his body. After the heart attack, they were doing surgery. They opened them up. And he was floating above his body. And he was listening to the conversation between the nurses and the doctors. And then he saw a bright light, as people often say, he walked into that bright light. And he saw a man, he said it was Jesus, I think it's whatever you in this life, whatever is your comfort, if it's Ganesh, if it's Hanuman, if it's Muhammad, I think that's who you'll see, right? And so Jesus told my grandfather, Yeshua told my grandfather, you know, Ed, it's not your time. You have to go back. You have to go back. It's not your time yet. And my grandfather said that it was such a lovely place that he didn't want to go back. Would you hear that a lot from people who have near death experiences, right? That they don't they don't want to go back. It's so nice where they go that they don't want to leave. And he actually kind of threw my grandmother into the bus, you know, like, they were in their 40s, they were close to my age now, and they had these three children, my dad and his two sisters. And my grandfather was like, no, Mary Ann's got this, she can handle it. I want to stay here. And Jesus, Yeshua was like, no, you got to go back yet. And so the next thing my grandfather remembers waking up in his bed, the doctors and the nurses did not believe him at first. They thought it was just a product of his mind because of the stress of having a heart attack. But then he started telling them, having a conversation with them about what they were talking about in the emergency room or the room they were in, where he had flatlined, right? And they were like, there's no way he could have heard us talking about that. So I guess that proves that there was something about the experience that it was very real. And my grandfather used to always say that the light that you, he could never describe that light. He could never describe to a human being, the only thing he could say about the light was that it was, it was bright because he said, it's a light that's unlike any light we see here on earth. It's indescribable. And that's how I kind of think about shadow people too. On the opposite end of the spectrum, these shadow people, these hat men, these hags, these with the female shadow figures, the shadow figures with the red eyes, these figures, the darkness of their body is a darkness that's not common. It's, it's indescribable. So the best way we can describe it is a shadow, but it's not that because it's a full blood. It's a full apparition. It's a full, you, it's solid. It's not like a, like you could put your hand through it. It's not a ghost. I've seen ghosts before too. It's not a ghost. It's an actual body, but the darkness it carries is not a darkness that I believe is common to the human psyche or the human awareness. Just kind of like the light you walk into at death is not, as my grandfather said, it's not explainable. So is this darkness. All right. So shadow is just the best way we can describe it. And so, and these entities all have different physical, like the hat man is usually really tall and really broad-chested. And it looks like he has a hat on and he looks like he has a trench coat on. The other types of shadow people with the red eyes, they're the more malevolent ones. They're the ones that will really, I mean, they're all malevolent, but the ones with the red eyes are the ones that will physically attack you. The female, the two times I've seen the female and I will place pictures here of how I went and Googled image like other people who had seen this female. And so, I pulled a few images of what she kind of looked like. So I'll put those images up for you guys to see. The younger female is more, from my experience with her twice now, is more hypnotic. She doesn't strike you with the fear like the hat man does or the red-eyed ones do or the hag does even. She's more hypnotic and she more kind of stares you down. So, and I just told her to go. And so, the reason why I'm bringing this up is because I do want to do another deep dive into this because this is from everybody I know in my life who has experienced this. None of them are psychologically crazy. None of them had, they're all very sound people. And when you do the research, you realize like on Art Bell's Coast to Coast show and he first started talking about it back in the early like what 2001, he got like over 4,000 emails or our 4,000 letters, whatever it was back in 2001. It was over 4,000 responses to this phenomenon of the shadow man from other people who were like, yes, I've seen this as well. And so, I'm putting that call out to you guys. I want to know if you guys want me to read your story, when we go over shadow people, if you want me to tell your story about your experience with the shadow person, send me an email at esotericatlanta at gmail.com, put shadow people in the subject line. If you would like for me to change your name, then please put that in the email and I will not say your name just so you can share your story because this like I said people I know in my real life like outside of YouTube have all had experiences with this, all of them have had experience. It's not rare. This happens. Now some people think they're aliens. I don't think they're aliens. I think they're interdimensional demonic beings. Some of them might actually be poltergeist ish. I was talking to Mr. Fox the other day preparing for a show when he was saying how the Cassiopeans recently said that these groups of nefarious people will actually conjure and create their own entity to go out and do damage. That could be what this is. I don't know. So I would also love to hear what you guys think it is from your own personal experiences with dealing with shadow people. Let me know in the email what you think it is, what your hypothesis is over what this entity is. We know it's bad. Like whatever it is, it's not here for your highest good, right? And it's not necessarily a demon either. There's a difference. So anyway, so call out to you guys who would like for me to share your story. Once again, send that email to esotericatlanta at gmail.com, put in the subject line shadow people. I will again be doing a deep dive again going over the history, what different cultures in our past times have called these these entities, like I said, modern times, you call them shadow people, but there are past cultures that have spoken about this with their own names, and they have their own theories on who these entities were. So just let me know in the email, send me that email, and we will talk about this together and jump into this, especially since we're coming to like, what do the Native Americans call this time, the quickening, where time is speeding up and the veil is becoming thinner. So more and more and more metaphysical or paranormal phenomenon is starting to happen more mainstream. So so yeah, we'll start looking into that I also because I really want to get back to the root of this channel is the root of this channel is researching and looking at folklore and legends and really trying to figure out the truth behind them. So please if you want to be involved in that just send me that email. All right guys, once again, I will be traveling for the next couple of weeks. So just be very, very patient as the videos might be a little bit more sporadic. Again, I'm going to be trying to get some videos pre filmed for you guys while I'm away as well. And once again, special, special, special love and light to all the people out there who are struggling with the weather right now. Just breathe and know that Mother Earth is detoxing and keep yourself safe. Do what you got to do to keep yourself safe and to keep your neighbors safe and let us know if you're in a situation where you're out of food or you don't have power and you can't get to the grocery store or something's going on where you need help, please reach out for help. You can send me an email and we'll do what we can to get you safe and get your family what they need. As Mr. Fox has said many times, when the dark ones go low, we go high when there's more friction in the air caused by this nefarious polarization of darkness, then we go high and we create more service to humanity. So please let us know what we can do to help you if you are in one of those situations where you are dealing with this with nature right now and with whether it's the fires, whether it's the storms, whatever it may be, just let us know if you need that help. All right, you guys, I hope you're having a wonderful day and I will talk to you all soon. Bye, everybody.
