Have you ever had a paranormal experience?
 
Have you ever been to/lived in a haunted location?

Do you believe that spirits linger after death under certain circumstances?

Are you frightened to think that there might be ghosts/poltergeists/demons capable of reaching into the world of the living?

Exo 08-09-2015 06:33 PM

I inspect vacant homes for a living...by myself. I haven't seen sh*t. Sorry to put a damper on that one.

Not every home is also home to the living dead. ;)

But you never know...there might be that one trip that changes everything.

My grandmother and aunt totally have seen both a ghost and UFO. My aunt paid $450 on an exorcism for the ghost and they talked to some alien hunter about the airplane they saw. Oddly, these paranormal events only occur when they've had a lot of wine.

Its quite hard to exsplain.I had a hex put on myself and my ex husband, when I lived in Tacoma of all places. . I lived in apartment that was intially a house but with 1 room efficiencies inside and only 1 other couple lived there the rest were lonely 30 something's that either had mental health issues living on SSI and or some sort of stipend.So my neighbor Brian started to go through a mid life crisis kinda thing and he hooked up with a crazy black chick named Janice and her pimp Marco.And at that time I was a wealthy 20 year old herion addict with a good heart.(Not just saying that either.) 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.

Mr. Charlie 08-09-2015 08:55 PM

Seen weird spirit type beings (well, more alien than spirit) on DMT which I believe were too incredible and weird to be my imagination, but who knows, it's an incredibly weird drug.

My mate claims he saw a UFO when we were tripping on acid one time too. I went inside to get some ciggies and when I returned to the garden my friend was really excited and animated. I believe he thinks he saw one, but again, drugs were involved. So who knows.

DeadChannel 08-09-2015 08:59 PM

No. The only "evidence" for ghosts, or horoscopes , or phychics, or the afterlife, or palm reading, or auras, or chakras, or the lizard people, or UFOs, or bigfoot, or the flying spaghetti monster, or the giant purple plush orangutan suction cupped to the back of Jupiter is entirely anecdotal and therefore unconvincing. If you look hard enough, you can find someone who will tell you that they've seen just about anything.

Okay, so, tripping is cool and all, but don't you think it's a bit odd that the only examples you can come up with happened while you were high?

Mr. Charlie 08-09-2015 09:10 PM

Odd? No. Makes perfect sense. Haha. If you're asking if I genuinely believe in spirits, I don't know. And it doesn't matter. Either they exist or they don't.

Chula Vista 08-09-2015 09:18 PM

Linda's sister was weeks away from dying from cancer and living with us under hospice care. Her "room" was adjacent to the place where I'd watch late night movies and ****. After she passed our TV would occasionally turn on randomly in the middle of the night (it had never done it before). I finally asked her to please stop.

It stopped. Love you Robin!

Key 08-09-2015 11:32 PM

Yes. My parents home is haunted. None of you have to believe me. All that matters is that I know what i've seen / felt / heard when I lived in their home.

William_the_Bloody 08-09-2015 11:51 PM

Yep lived in a haunted house and I have seen a thing or two, I'm thankful for that, I probably would be an atheist otherwise.

John Wilkes Booth 08-10-2015 01:06 AM

yea

Janszoon 08-10-2015 05:32 AM

No, but I've had super normal experiences. Like for example last night I sat on my couch and watched TV with my wife for a little while.

The Batlord 08-10-2015 06:24 AM

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.

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

EPOCH6 08-10-2015 01:02 PM

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.

Mondo Bungle 08-10-2015 02:53 PM

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

Guybrush 08-10-2015 03:19 PM

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.

Ninetales 08-10-2015 03:56 PM

when i was in hs there was this "haunted" (abandoned) farmhouse right outside town. it was a huge property; had a three or four story farmhouse, two big ass barns, a couple sheds, a school bus filled old vhs, a small grain silo and whatever else im forgetting. we went a bunch of times but nothing super spooky happened..

but the first time we went there were a bunch of coyotes that ran off once we got closer. in one of the sheds there was a smaller one curled up in a ball. we thought it was sleeping so being the dumb idiots we were poked it with a stick to wake it up. but uh it was dead and its head was completely detached from its body. no clue how that was actually possible. ghosts is my guess.

the house was basically a coyote graveyard too. never seen so many dead animals in one place

the next time we wnet there the coyotes were all cleaned out. and then the third time the house was burned down.

oOoooooooo
