Ghosts/dopplegangers/faeries/vampires etc etc
 

ok, theres a thread on reincarnation, so i was wondering, do you believe in anything paranormal? anything outside the box or supernatural. personally, im a firm believer in ghosts, partly because i saw one as a child and partly because of my general outlook on life. i believe there is a parallel existence between the living and dead, they are all with us, but we are oblivious to this other plain due to our hectic lifestyles and general chaotic/built up environments. at certain times in the right conditions it is possible to interact, we all possess the abilities its just using them thats difficult. of course there is no proof of this, its just my opinions and beliefs. yours? (if you think its all a load of bollocks, say why)

It's not that I believe or disbelieve in the paranormal, I just don't think it's "relevant" at this point in my life. To sum up this and the reincarnation issue, I'm too concerned about living to contemplate what happens when I die.

i find it comforting to think theres something deeper out there, that we're just a small piece of a much larger jigsaw.

oh for sure, there are most definately other worlds out there and other species...
and there are ghosts too, but I don't think they have unfinished buisness or here to scare us and get revenge or nothing...I just don't think they know they are dead yet.
and imagine how frustrating that would be?
Vampires, there is something I have alwas been interested in more discussion about.

well i heard that scientists always find a plausible explanation for everything we call "paranormal". like vampires... people in the middle ages (in the past, anyway) called people that were suffering of porphyria vampires.
or ghosts... LedZep said he saw one.. tell me about it, i'm really curious cause i dunno what to think.. my sister is convinced that we have a ghost in our house. and she's the older one.. i never thought they were real (maybe when i was little) but i can't say they're just made up stories cause i'm not sure of that either...

i don believe in anythn like that, when you die, youre dead, you rot in the ground and get eaten by bugs, you don get up. i like watching those little ghost clips tho, fun stuff.

it was actually in these really old, delapidated public toilets on a caravan site while i was on holiday..about 9 years ago. they were quite scary to look at but me and these little guys i met there decided to go in and have a piss because we thought it would be really funny (dont ask). was really gloomy and shadowy inside, plasters crumbling of all of the walls, and as ive gone into a cubicle ive seen like a very strange mist in the rough form of a human just standing in the centre, with two huge black holes on what i assumed was its head. it started coming towards me so as you can probably guess, i legged it. never went back. and i can assure you thats 100% true. i dont believe in vampires though i like the idea of them.

One thing that freaks me out is that all the time i get really strong deja-vu that i remember from dreams, today i had a really strong feeling i'd been through the entire situation and remembered what everyone was going to say next.

I get that all the time...and I dream things and then they happen ECACT to ewhat I dreamed! People say, "oh, that's just de-ga-vu....."
and I say, "then explain what de-ge-vu really is huh?"

that story freaked me the hell out for some reason. I don't know if i believe in that stuff or not, like ghosts or any other creatures, but i still can't watch those shows on tv they have about any of it without turning all the lights on and having someone else in the room with me :(
