Morgan and Justin shared their experiences of encountering the unexplained, with Morgan sharing an incident where her house seemed to be haunted after recording a scary stories episode, and Justin recounting his time living in a house where a double homicide had taken place. These experiences left lasting impressions on them, affecting their dreams and overall well-being.

Investigate a property's history before renting or buying: Avoid unexpected and potentially hazardous situations by researching a property's address for criminal records, environmental issues, or past deaths before renting or buying.
Before renting or buying a property, it's essential to investigate its history thoroughly. The story shared on the paranormal subreddit by a verified user named "myexperienceasacrimescenecleaner" serves as a cautionary tale. The user, who became a crime scene cleaner after struggling to find a job, found himself in a horrifying situation when his boss assigned him to clean up the remains of a deceased person still in the house. He was not given proper training or equipment and was left to determine what needed to be removed or cleaned based on the situation. This experience was far from the water and fire damage cleanup he had expected. The lesson here is that ignorance is not bliss when it comes to the history of a property. It's crucial to research the address and be aware of any potential hazards or past incidents. This can include checking for criminal records, environmental issues, or even past deaths. While it may be uncomfortable or disturbing to uncover such information, it's better to know beforehand than to be caught off guard. In summary, always investigate the history of a property before renting or buying to avoid unexpected and potentially hazardous situations.
