It's just so weird for me to think that there is something unseen that has the capability to interact with the physical world. It doesn't make any sense to me but there are so many people that claim to have experienced these things... I am still, somewhat, under the belief that it is just the human psyche creating things that we are expecting to happen due to the environment we are in and similar events we have seen on movies or in books.

Dude...if you met my uncle, you'd say "no way that motherfucker ever saw a ghost." He's too level-headed. Up until that moment, he would have called anyone who had his experience a quack.

I believe there's a very real spiritual world that we interact with on some level. At times, we can actually see it, and I don't know why. I personally have never experienced the paranormal firsthand unless you count watching the Blair Witch Project.

unless you count watching the Blair Witch Project.

I live nearby that forest. I pass it on the way to visit my buddy whom I posted about in the last post.

Never visited though, One of these days I'll check it out, even though there is no backing to the movie.

[ajhostetter]

I was joking.

[GunMetalGrey]

There are religions based on speaking to spirits (on a less creepy term) and communicate through feelings, known as channeling.
My uncle actually has his own "group" called the Crimson Circle, Geoffrey Hoppe
I don't know how to take it, he doesn't speak of it too seriously but makes a darn good living off of it. Always makes you wonder if it is the money, or if there is actually something there.
Would you believe a guy who claims to talk to spirits, and they teach life lessons?

[Wh33lhop]

you mean like that dumb bitch that knifed her toddlers to death because she thought they were possessed by demons?

If you think about it, wouldn't a good way to fuck with someone, if you were in fact a demon, be to possess their kids until they kill them, and then disappear? ;)

Did you have the fucking paralyzed body shit?
That happened to me on a couple occasions when weird shit happened and I certainly didn't like it.

Sleep paralysis. You see some gnarly shit.

I have had sleep paralysis (god it's annoying) but luckily never the hallucinations that go with it. Lots of kids have had to see some seriously terrifying shit on a regular basis due to this stuff.

I know what you mean..but in my caseshe confirmed the same thing i saw. I don't think two brains imagined seeing the same thing.

Paragraph: I had another thing happen a while back in the new place I'm staying. According to my landlord the guy who built the house died and he bought the house from the bank. So i was watching tv with my room mate Bruce. Behind the tv there is a small window that opens up to the kitchen. We both got up to make some food when we saw a shadow move on the wall in the kitchen. Seeing how the shadow didn't move in accordance to us and there's no way anything from outside could creatr the shadow, we jokingly said to eachother "must be a ghost".

Later that night my friends went to the bar. I stayed home...alone...of course. I was playing videogames when i head the toilet flush. A little after i heard the bathroom door open amd someone walking to the bedroom area. We have tile so its very easy to hear someone walking. I thought it was Bruce since the sound went to his room. I got up to ask him him what he was doing back. I opened my door and all the lights were off. I walked to Bruce's room and no one was there. The way the house is designed you can only get to the room by a dmall hallway. I searched the whole house and no one was there. I went back to my room and stopped in the hall to look at Bruce's room...his door opened and no one was there. Lets just say I've never been by myself at night again.

OMG! Blood stains on the wall!

There is a QT in north Tulsa I used to regularly pick-up extra shifts at. There were blood stains in the cooler, why you ask? Two guys came in with masks, took the night manager in the cooler and beat him to death with a baseball bat.

I blame his spirit for making me drop Pepsi when restocking the cooler.

You used to work in N tulsa, I didnt think that was your kinda neighborhood,

from the last time this came up in 2009

Only had it happen once, it was the 3rd or 4th night in a new hotel in pa last year (before I went to NY), and I had the "shadowy figure" standing across the room by the desk. I was flipping out in my mind trying to move and couldn't. So I just shut my eyes, and woke myself up like I would from a nightmare when I realize that its a night mare. When I opened my eyes I still could not move for a second or 2 and that figure was still there. As soon as I my hand moved a fraction of an inch for the night stand the figure disappeared and that was it.

I was so freaked out by the "man standing there" I chamber checked my pistol and actually set it to condition 1 on the night stand, something I never ever do. I was freaked I thought sure there was some one in my room and I was a dead man. it was like a dream but way too real, even after I closed and reopened my eyes.

Have never had anything like it before or since and I dont have nightmares all that often either maybe 1 or 2 a year.

[slaterd]

I'm probably gonna get flamed but i don't think night terrors are a mental or physiologically enduced situation. Everyone describes the same scenario, feeling, and shadowy figure.

That's unfortunate for your manager. Care to add anything relevant to the thread? Or are you just making your usual rounds tonight?

[DEV0 E30]

Good thread. Great thread. Campfire stories ITT.

In his mothers room, there is a solid red line that circles the entire room about 4 feet off the ground. She has painted the room, and the red line comes back through the paint. I saw it myself.

I do have a plausible explanation for this though. Have you ever painted over a red wall? Even with a quality paint + primer combo, you'll have to paint multiple coats. It's possible she didn't paint enough coats or the paint being used to cover it wasn't as strong or the chemical makeup of the red overpowered it. Over time I've seen paint come through a lesser paint.

I would not want to spend any time in said place though.

Paragraph: I had another thing happen

Later that night

Dude. I think you're the perfect candidate to get a Ouija board.

Do I condone it? Hell no, you're obviously a magnet for something, even if they are just visions.

[F34R]

"demons, spirits" etc are real, I have had experience from my; let's call it 'dark past'. All I wish to disclose is; they are only allowed power if you give them a foothold. Partaking in demonic deeds or watching things that are inviting. I really just posted here as a warning of what you invite.

They are real.

[Holland]

Please don't do this. You will attract some seriously bad energy...

Something for the skeptics out there, remember not too long ago the educated people of the world believed the Earth was flat and that the sun and the stars revolved around us. Just saying, there is a whole universe out there our current laws of physics cannot explain.
