My Friends Are Haunted

In this chilling episode, host Caitlin May is joined by her older brother, Brandon, for the first time to uncover the terrifying paranormal experiences they shared growing up. Having lived together in multiple haunted houses, the siblings compare memories that still leave them questioning what was really stalking them. The journey begins in Sand Canyon with an eerie update on the mysterious little boy spirit known as Billy—but that's only the beginning.

Brandon recounts the night he realized something was watching him from the darkness outside his bedroom window... something he couldn't actually see. Was it a spirit, a cryptid, or something even more unsettling lurking in the hills? Caitlin has one theory—Bigfoot—but Brandon isn't convinced.

Then they revisit another one of their haunted homes they lived in: the house in Castaic. One by one, every member of the family experienced the same terrifying phenomenon—being awakened in the middle of the night by something they couldn't explain. Coincidence... or was something sharing the house with them?
