The Haunted Towel (Yes, Really)!
The other day, a friend reached out because she needed a little help with her dog. She wanted me to do a quick psychic reading on him. She began to tell me about her laundry room and how just recently, her dog hated going into that room. She said sometimes he’d walk past the room as if tiptoeing. This was a bit of a problem, since that’s where she keeps the food and water bowl. She said every time her dog would go in to eat or drink, he’d do it lightning fast—then bolt out of there like his paws couldn’t get traction on the floor. It was like he couldn’t escape fast enough. He was scared.
So she asked me to tune in.
As soon as I connected with the energy of her dog and the space he was afraid to be in, I felt it. A heavy, icky, uneasy energy. My stomach flipped and I felt nervous.
If you follow me, you’ve probably heard me explain how I communicate with Spirit—in a kind of symbolic language. I have to interpret what I’m shown, what I feel, what I see, and what I am told. Honestly, every psychic or medium will tell you the same thing: it would be amazing if spirit just talked to us like we humans talk to one another, but that’s not how it works. Most of the time, I’m given images, sensations, or phrases, and I have to interpret the meaning. Over the last 12 years, I’ve built a kind of internal “library” of what these images, feelings and phrases mean and represent.
But a towel? This image was new.
As I tuned into her pet and the space, I could see, in my mind’s eye (Third Eye), a black towel—sort of suspended in the air, flapping gently like a flag in the wind. But instead of being horizontal, it was perpendicular to the floor. Imagine a magic carpet, but upright, swaying, rippling in a gently breeze. This image was so strange to me. I’ve never been shown a towel floating before. I connected further and started to get a gross feeling. The energy was just… off. I didn’t like it at all!
So, I described this feeling, and this image to my friend.
Her jaw dropped.
I laughed a little and said, “Okay, what does this mean to you?” I was half expecting a silly story. Umm, nope.
She said, “Oh my gosh. I just brought home a black towel from our rental property. It was kind of tattered on the edges, so I didn’t want guests using it anymore. I left it in a bag in our laundry room. But I washed it.”
At that point, I about fell off my chair. Spirit had shown me the exact object that was causing her dog’s fear and panic. No interpreting necessary today. This image was literal, not symbolic, and I saw it! WHAT??!! But, why did this energy stay? How did it stay even though she had washed the towel?
As I tuned into the energy attached to this towel more deeply, I felt a male energy. It didn’t feel kind. It felt dark. Angry. The words I kept hearing were abused or abuser. Hmmm.
I wasn’t looking to deep dive into a haunted towel reading (lol)—we were just chatting on a Zoom call when my friend asked me to do a quick psychic reading on her dog. And like I said, I was feeling ‘an ick’ from this towel and really didn’t want to connect to it any further, especially because I was starting to pick up a lot. I didn’t want to go down that rabbit hole, so I stopped and said: “Get rid of the towel!”
She didn’t hesitate. Right there on Zoom, she stood up, grabbed the towel and tossed it outside. Boom. Done. Gone!
We finished our zoom call and said our goodbyes. I told her to keep me posted on her dog’s behavior. I plan to follow up with her and see if anything’s shifted in the house since then—but one thing’s for sure: even everyday objects can carry heavy energy. And our pets? They feel it. Can you feel energy?
Update.
I spoke with my friend today and asked her how her dog was doing. She said after she removed the towel, she cleansed the space with some Florida water. She waited a few hours and then went into the laundry room and sat on the floor. She called her dog in. He slowly and reluctantly crept into the room and drank some water. She studied him and said he’d drink a little, stop and his eyes would dart back-n-forth between her and where the towel used to be. Clearly, he was looking for it. Of course, she had removed the towel the day before, so it was gone and the terrible energy it held was gone too. She was curious if he still felt the energy though, and thought this whole situation was just so fascinating, scary, and weird all at the same time. (lol)
Today when we spoke, I asked her how things were going and she said when they got home, her dog ran right into the laundry room and got a drink of water. No fear. Everything was fine. Yay! Energy gone!!
I’m so happy I was able to help my friend and her fur baby! It’s amazing how sensitive our pets are. They feel/sense energy very easily. Would YOU know if something in your house was holding funky energy? Your pets do! Trust them. Energy doesn’t lie.

Did you know I do pet readings? I haven’t really advertised it. Maybe I should. Would you want one for your pet? Watch my website for a booking link.
If you’d like to learn more about cleansing, clearing, and ridding a space of energy, let me know. I have a very detailed, step-by-step procedure in a convenient pdf for purchase. It explains it all!
One last thing that is lingering…Spirit keeps telling me that there is more to this story and the male energy I picked up on. My friend and I are going to do a little more connecting and digging to see where Spirit leads us— because that male energy around that towel—it’s still whispering. Stay tuned…
Thank you for reading!! :)
