Welcome to Otherworld.
I'm your host, Jack Wagner.
This episode is about a guy named Mitch who grew up in rural Oregon in a Mormon household.
Back then,
Mitch and his younger brother's bedrooms were both in the basement of their childhood house.
And during Mitch's senior year of high school,
they started finding unexplained, child-sized handprints down there in the basement.
Eventually,
Mitch begins having strange dreams and then waking experiences that seem to center around a yellow-eyed boy.
Around this time, Mitch was starting to have doubts about his Mormon faith,
and these events with the yellow-eyed boy sort of coincided with that period of his life.
And for that reason,
Mitch was trying hard to keep both these doubts and his paranormal experiences secret from his brother who also slept in that same basement.
But eventually, his brother became involved as well.
I really enjoyed this story.
I thought it had quite a few similarities to one of our very early episodes.
And also,
I just love any story where a teenager or adult is so scared that they have to go sleep in their parents' bedroom.
This episode is called the LOI boy, and you're listening to Otherworld.
