I don't believe in ghosts any more than I believe in anything involving the afterlife, but that all goes out the window after I've spent time at night on the No Sleep section of Reddit.

Only time I've ever had anything involving a paranormal experience was when I got hella stoned and thought the clouds were showing me messages, but I decided to dismiss the idea once sober.

Anyway out of concern for Brian who never did a drug in his life yet had started smoking crack with these people and letting them basically living off his SSI checks and all crashing in an efficiency I said something to him infornt of these people. (The unbeknownst to me was voodoo practitioner.) I said something to the effect of "what the **** are you doing man, these people are toxic get them the **** away from here to which he didn't heed my warning And that's what really started the incidents, the bones, the honey other bizzare trinkets being left on my doorstep under my windows, being watched or the feeling of it, eyes on the back of your neck type deal strange whispers in the middle of the night that would wake myself and the ex up like loud and clearly saying things like "hey adam , hey jess" . Then one morning early early early like up before Jesus early I get a knock at the door and its Janice, and she's all sweetness and light and she says, "Jesska I know we don't see eye to eye and whatever and its a shame cos I really like you ya know and I hate to ask you this but I need a huge favor I don't have any money and Im super thirsty can I have something to drink. So I let her in and gave her some coca cola.Now I have litterally no proof of this but at one point my back was to her with an open two liter and I to this day belive she slipped us a mickey.Later on further research it had all the effects of a belladonna trip. One I have never had but this isolated incident, the bitch leaves and I swig some of the soda and does my ex, like a heathen right outta the bottle and baaabay when I tell you psychosis insued with in 20 minutes.I found myself naked running through my hallway banging on my neighbors doors screaming bloody murder about a raid.(?) My ex chased me into the laundry room and covered me with a robe after he found me digging through a trash can looking for bugs, or a wire tap.My ex started seeing incredibly demonic visions as did I. And it lasted maybe maybe an hour or so.That day marked a turning point, we bacame incredibly depressed two of our close friends od'd, (one oddly enough died with a copy of Alistair Crowely's 777 in his lap) we were followed legitimately followed by two different cars at the same time one night after a dinner at hooters. I found our names etched into the wall in our laundry a few weeks later with odd markings and the words misery and death. Im talking my full name like first last and middle inital My ex and I attempted suicide but were thwarted by an im from his mother.We would cry randomdly, I mean Id get outta the shower and he'd be rocking back and forth in front of a blank desktop screen sobbing, or he'd come in the kitchenette to find me crying for no reason.He used to hit me anyway but during this period that this was going on (about 3 months) he'd just ****ing wail on me, he broke three ribs and made me look like the elephant girl. (My teeth are chipped because of it in front. Not noticeable to you all but I can see it, now you know why I never smile ****tards I am self conscious.) Anyway we had money, neither like one of us worked money, and I'd say things like"Baby we have 50k in our checking please let's go home to Florida I hate it here we can leave tonight **** all this stuff well get new **** **** that isn't tainted."And he would say odd things like nobody is going to chase me outta my house. He was getting creepy like "here's Johnny"creepy. (We stayed three weeks after that conversation.) We even purposely stopped using and went through withdrawl when all this started because we thought we were ****ing crazy and high during this. We got through withdrawl over 7 days and it continued for 2 and half more months.Finally when our toilet literally exploded we said enough and we sucked it up walked to a ****ing pay phone and sat together in eachothers arms on the curb and cried, called his parents and asked to come home to his father's house and we said we were terrified and they could hear it in our voices. They said yes and we walked home loaded the car , with the dog, the dvds, the records the computer, pertinent info passports etc and left. I drove 300, 00 miles to get away from this hex and the story ends music banter , by us making it home to Florida, and promptly being arrested about 4 weeks later.
That 1 morning forever altered my life. You don't just get away from something that powerful.I left it there you feel me but the after shocks were still there, we didn't just get un-suicidal.We feel off the wagon almost immediately and him beating my ass that day was the reason I left to go buy crack and cocaine from the hood and got busted in a sting.That one morning shaped life as an adult forever. I grew up with this kinda stuff being ok in my house and the norm so its not like we didn't figure out we had been cursed. Ya understand? It was the strangest 3 months of my adult life. And you know the only people who I can share this with besides you strangers are actually my family.And Im not judged or looked at as strange for it. I moved home when dude and I split for a couple months abd my aunti cleansed me she said she could feel the darknessness all around me. But I didn't really fully shake it until the day I got off probation in 09.

There LlL. I typed all this on my phone.Medal?

You need to paragraph this, because it is almost unreadable.

Have never experienced something so peculiar that I couldn't attribute it to several natural possibilities or drug symptoms. Plenty of malfunctioning electronics in the middle of the night, plenty of doors shutting mysteriously, peculiar sounds from the hallway after dark, things scraping on the windows, breezes through buildings that sound a lot like a voices, hearing / seeing things that aren't there when I'm exceptionally tired, sure, all of the above, but blaming it on the dead before accepting that I simply don't know what made it happen? Not yet.

On a serious note...

Something weird has really only happened to me once. I was lying in bed, going to sleep, when my bed shifted. It was exactly as if someone were sitting on the edge and then sat up. I had a cat bit he wasn't in the room at the time. I'll still swear to the day I die that something stood up from my bed and left....

That's it though, only happened once

I grew up on ghost stories and was very interested in the occult as a teenager. If you'd asked me then if I'd seen any weird shit, I would have said yes. But that's to be expected when you spend time in old derelict houses at night or sleep over in old german bunkers, winded up on ghost stories and books on the occult.

A ghostly visage would be fleeting, vague and wouldn't last long. If you believe it to be a ghost, that's the story you tell yourself. Or you could think a bit and perhaps realize it could have simply been a lingering after-image of light after staring at a candle and then looking into a dark room. Colour it with a bit of imagination and you have the glimpze of a ghost. The noises and the creaky doors are the wind or a crow picking at a window. When you're meditating or have a fever, you may see a dark shadow stretching towards you from the corner of your room or your friend sitting on your floor, looking at you with red eyes. But then again you may be prone to be half-dreaming in a dark room at that point. Sit up, turn the lights on and there's nothing there. Under sober scrutiny, it melts away.

So for me, even though I went looking for it, I never found anything definite. It was only true to the extent I managed to kid myself and my belief in the supernatural could not be sustained without wishful thinking. There was always rational explanations and I couldn't ignore them.

This is of course a long time ago. Today, I just think the world would be a better place if people believed in the reality outside their own heads.
