About this episode
Frank shares a surreal childhood story about a ghost named Freddy and the events surrounding it during Hurricane Milton.
One day when Frank was 14 growing up in Tampa, FL, his dad came home from work and started talking about some guys from work who had a ghost in their office. Apparently, something was making coins materialize from thin air around this office, which was actually much more of an industrial parking lot and drywall storage facility. The guys named this ghost 'Freddy' and one day, Frank's dad decided to take him and his brother to go meet it. This story caught my attention all the way back in 2024 when I recorded it, and ever since then I have been hoping to find one final missing piece. This was recorded in October 2024 during Hurricane Milton, and I actually did some of the interviews while Frank's family was evacuated to a hurricane shelter. All in all, this is a very surreal episode and I have a feeling you will like it just as much as I did. To Listen to the Full Episode, sign up for The Otherworld Patreon
