Ghost stories comments: Page 1

To Raja_RP: That entity chose to manifest itself to you and not to your parents. As a result, it caused your parents to question your honesty and your integrity! It even caused your Dad to inflict corporal punishment upon you!
What cruel behavior by that entity! Proof positive that the entity was a DEMON!

Lady glow-
It was a twin sized mattress on the floor in a tiny little room. He was in almost a fetal position on the hardwood floor at the end of his bed, almost like he sat at the end of the mattress and collapsed.
So with lividity the blood pools to wherever gravity takes it basically as the body decomposes. It happens to everyone. He only had one obvious wound to the head, not sure what caused it as there was no blood on the ceiling or anywhere to show blunt force trauma like somebody hitting him.

I'm going to assume you're not māori because you wouldn't have done something silly like that. If you are māori then what were you thinking? Go and get help from your marāe. Best of luck and kia kaha!

Hello Ellie,

Sorry for the late response. I am much better now. Sorry but can't share this story on Spooked as you have requested. This story involves my close family members. I don't want them to read it somewhere and feel bad about it. I never wanted to publish this story here too but because I was too helpless at that time, I took this risk. Once I get complete solution of my problem, I will delete this story from here too. I hope you will understand 🙏

Hello Jeeva,

Sorry for the late response.

I am much better now although I have never stopped doing cleansing rituals on a daily basis. And I have found faith in God again and do Puja daily. I will try to get one of the yantras that you have suggested and hope I can stop doing cleansing rituals daily.

Hi Twilight,

Sorry for the late response. I totally agree with you as it being a residual haunting and not a negative one. Our family lived happily in that house for 5 years. Nothing bad or negative happened 🙂

Losing people close to us is something we never get over, it's an empty void in our hearts that can never be filled, time won't heal it but it will help us to carry on, but I do believe that loved ones that have passed on are in a better place free of worldy suffering and they are always watching over us and guiding us.

Hi SashB

It seems like you and your family really went through the mill, after reading all your stories, I do believe that someone must have really hated your mother, because most of the paranormal experiences you've had centered around your mum.

[at] Sash - thanks for sharing the pre & post passing related literature, will check it out!

[at] brewsingh you are right as much as we love and miss them we also need to celebrate them. Here in South Africa as well we do the same. We also have a period of mourning which is the 1 year, which is concluded with the 1 year Shraddh pooja. I have read as well that 40 days prior to a person passing they do become aware of it and that some become withdrawn and also try to break ties with loved ones. Maybe read the Garuda Puran as it give so much clarity on what happens before a person passes and also in the afterlife. You are indeed correct when you say mixed emotions as it has been 10 years since my mum passed and 6 since my dad passed and I know all too well what it feels like

Hope this helps as well.

Hi, we're all over it. Considering dad's visitation started nearly a month prior to his passing - so he pretty much prepared me for it in advance. Also, he passed away in old age having lived his life well - so, in India - such a passing (where one has lived their life to the fullest) is celebrated (although its a mix of emotions).

True, it is mind bending how ancestors communicate from the afterlife.

[at] brewsingh I am so sorry for your loss. It is certainly quite a bit to deal with. I hope your dad and his brother attain Moksha. It is really nerve-wrecking and draining mentally, emotionally and physically. I hope you and your family take the time to heal from these tragedies. I too have experienced what you have but a little different. Approximately a week before my mum passed, she too would say that she could see her mum and 2 other relatives walking all over the house. She used to be really scared and wanted us to be with her at all times. It is really amazing how our loved ones communicate with us from beyond.

Wishing you and your family healing, love and light.

Zander they hang from the ceiling waiting for an opening. Happened to me once. That I remember. My portal was from remodeling. I installed 2 almost 6 ft wide mirrored closet door across from each other in a 7 ft hallway and had a mirror on the bathroom door looked really cool but wasn't ready for what was about to challenge my sanity my house came alive. The mirrored hallway picture is in my story Floor squeaker #2 and stuff on the floor went on forever in the mirrors like snapshots. The cleans was at this property. Kinda bent my brain there.

All that's required to open portals is drinking enough booze so that you're out of it. The Theosophists studied this. They would go to bars where people were passed out or out of their minds. They could see auras. They saw holes in their auric field and naughty entities rushing in to jump them and take control. Alcohol is "fire water" and like fire a delightful servant but a fearful master.

hmm... I would not judge it as something natural, sounded pretty much like if you guys are sensing the spirit not by your eyes but by smells. Yes, six sense but smell edition.
Was it a special day of your father in law or did someone else passed away too? During that period of time?

I heard that when a person passes away, he/she will not know that they died. They will wonder around for a few days, play around sometime since no one really sees them, then they will realize that this world is not the world they belong to... That is from one of my friend who "sees" spirits.

Pray for the spirit and hope it will find its destination as soon as possible. 😊

Sending love ❤

Thai Buddhism is pretty much similar to Hinduism. Thai let in the Gods and worshipped them as Buddhist Gods. Basically, Thai is religiously spiritism. They had added other teachings from other religions and formed modern day religion. I quite like these kind of accepting other thoughts style of peace making from wise civilizations. 😊

If the fragrance smelled familiar to you, like it reminds you of someone, I'd say that it's probably someone close to you that has passed on, if not then it's probably a random passing spirit, or of a previous owner perhaps.

Hi blosomes

Quite an interesting experience you've had there, not the almost being scammed part though.

I'm a practicing Hindu and we believe in Hanuman very much, it's amazing how faith connects people from different continents across the world.

Sounds like you got more than you bargained for when dabbling with what you don't fully understand, I'm not sure if I've read this part wrong or I'm misunderstanding it, but you found the closet where your friend sees a dark figure with a toothy grin almost nightly, safe and soothing?

Hi SashB

After reading your story I wouldn't say that those set of numbers have any meaning in a broad sense, but rather just between you and your dad, I think it's his way of showing you that he's around watching over you.

And you are right no matter how much time passes, when you lose someone close to you, you never get over it, unfortunately time cannot heal all wounds, and like you, I and perhaps many other people think that if only there was something I could have done to save the person we lost, but what I've realized or had to come to terms with, is that no one really knows when our time is up. But we can make the best of the time we do have and spend it with people we care about and doing stuff that makes us happy.

[at] SashB,

Thanks for reading my story. 🙏🏼
I have read your story, it's simply beautiful.
Ya, my father in law expired couple of months before we shifted to that home. He was missing my wife and kid badly during his last days. My wife came back to Singapore after covid lockdown was lifted. And my father in law was in india when he died. We went back for the his funeral and then came back.
Thanks for the clarification

[at] Akkikad

I do not think that this was meant as a bad experience. I have recently posted my experience as well (Beautiful scent I think it was my mum). Please read it when you have the time, and you will understand. Is there perhaps a loved one that has passed away? Someone that you or your wife were close to. I ask this because of my personal experience. Look at it positively. As I was reading your story, after a very log time I also got a whiff of a lovely scent. Today I am alone in my office. Best of luck and I hope you get the answers soon.

You say that you hope that the invisible entity on your horse was not evil.
Well, guess what!
That entity caused your Nan to falsely accuse you and to question your honesty and integrity! That is mighty evil, cruel, demonic behavior on its part!
Just goes to show that that entity was definitely an evil spirit, AKA demon.

Hello Old_Dude, we are looking to film a series on urban legends and scary stories in the area. We were wondering if you'd be willing to talk to us or even do an interview for the show? Please email strangetalesofthesouthshore [at] gmail.com

[at] The_Lost_Voyage_11

Thank you for reading and responding to my experience. I have been to a few mediums and they have all advised the same thing, so I know they are not lying. Apparently my dad uses numbers to communicate with me. 1036 was special to him as it was his first employee number at the first comany he worked and it had stuck ever since. It resonates as we often made fun of him and joked that he could not remember any other number. Funny enough I saw it yesterday as well.

Please keep in mind what you are leaving for others. Can you imagine a mother of 4 children all under the age of 12. Leaving an abusive situation to end up renting your old place. Children tormented or even death for what you left behind. PLEASE ALWAYS THINK ABOUT OTHERS when dabbling in the arts. At least have your places cleansed before moving. You should contact a Psychic MEDIUM and the renters now and try to clear that dwelling, like a good human would do. I actually told the buyer of my active home the things I witnessed before we signed. He gave me that LOOK of disbelief. I had a physic cleans it. They have my number. All good so far. Almost 10 years now.

Hello SashB, thanks for sharing your story!

Using mediums does not disturb the soul of a passed love one. They are always eager to communicate and sometimes using a medium is the easiest way they can connect with us, especially if we are quite attached. You need to be selective about whom you use, do they resonate and do the messages you receive resonate?

From what you've shared with us, your parents are very much sending you signs and staying in touch with you. If you trust yourself to listen with an open heart, you can pick up that communication more and more without needing to consult with mediums as much.

It sounds like you know what the 1036 is about, by what your dad uses it for and what you've researched. Do you know why your dad used that number in life as a password, what significance does it have for him that might relate to you? I have a feeling as you continue to open up more, you will learn more about that this number means. It will be revealed in time and you could always ask your dad outright to provide more signs and communication regarding this.

Good luck and hope this helps!

You make a lot of references throughout your story about "ghosts" but personally I don't think "ghosts" are as malevolent as you have described, disturbing cemeteries and other types of burial places may earn you an upset or angry ghost, but nothing quite as malevolent.

I have to agree with [at] cantunSEEit74, your curiosity yielded more than just a earth bound spirit.

Has something happened previously for you to come to that conclusion? If not then there's nothing better than trying.

"A devil with merely local powers, like a parish vestry, would be too inconceivable a thing." Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, The Hound of the Baskervilles.

If, as you say, this demonic, unfriendly, entity got into your phone and messed with your files, it already knows your contacts, family and friends. So writing this post alone, apart from your house to "protect your family" is really laughable.

Hello [at] Rajine,

No, I haven't spoken to my parents about it because I've come to the conclusion that they won't believe me.

That's some crazy shiet right there. Look for a medium to find the right person for your ailments. The church is the last place I would look for help. Did you feel the church people really I mean really knew what they were doing BOTH churches. Throwing holy water and body sageing sometimes is not enough. New Zealand of all place's spirits stuck on an island. Warriors in their own rights the last place I would do stupid shiet. I have seen their chants and dances on TV a proud people. Please don't tell me you're a stupid American playing with fire. Did you notice native names or dates on the markers while you were trespassing. YES it's on you.

Hi Pastryguy, your story was similar to a cousin of mine except the apparition didn't only float into the closet but flew in! Even your description of the apparition is very similar.

You could ask your aunt and uncle if they have experienced any of these noises, do you think it could be a resident or passing spirit?

It's believed that we all have a doppelganger out there somewhere in the world, this might also be a spirit or something that is taking on your appearance, because of its close proximity to your home and being seen specifically by family and friends.

For as long as there's been spooky stories and folklore, trees have featured in many of them, spirits good or bad usually attach themselves to trees, have you ever spoken to your parents or anyone else in your family about this? Perhaps they experienced it as well over the years.

It must have been a terrifying incident for everyone to go through, I have quite a few friends from Mauritius that have mentioned this particular place being haunted.

Hi SashB

I think it's just your parents way of showing you how much you mean to them and that they still are around watching over you and your family.

What is the address of that ranch house, or location of it? The next time I'm in Springfield I'd like to see it to see if it's still vacant.

Can you contact your uncle and ask if he or anyone else in the home have encountered any noises from upstairs or anything out of the ordinary in the house. Footsteps are creepy especially if you can't squeak your floor but something invisible can squeak your floor. Let us know what he says. Thanks

Oh, okay. It could have been better if you had the house blessed or prayed over.

Hello [at] angprobinsyano,

To answer your questions: first, yes, I'm from Cebu. Second, we don't have any cats - just an Aspin dog that stays outside our house, and my mom is a very tidy person, so I don't think rats would be present. Lastly, I don't think cats could open and slam the door three times, especially since we always lock the balcony door. (We only use the balcony during Christmas and New Year to celebrate and set off some fireworks, as it offers a great view of our neighborhood.) The sound we heard was more likely from human footsteps, as they have a much heavier weight, and the way they move is distinct.

Hi, are you from Cebu? Just curious since you were speaking in Bisaya.

Have you verified if Cats or large rats did not cause those footsteps? In my girlfriend's boarding house, we hear footsteps in the top of her room during nighttime, but they were caused by running cats or rats.

If none of those exist in your house, then I would say that it is something paranormal.

Hey,
Thank you so much sharing this. I feel people who experiences these things after their loved ones passing are very lucky. My heart goes for you about what happened with your mom and as she was a beautiful soul, maybe that's why she has this strong and fragrant aura, Take care.

Hello lady-glow!

Thank you so much for commenting on my post, I see that you find it interesting, and I appreciate it.

Here are my answers to your questions: My uncle stopped the taxi and yelled at the driver. He then checked under the taxi to see if I was there. In his shock, there was no sign of my body at all, and the taxi driver was equally confused. Not knowing what to do, he panicked and quickly rushed to tell my parents what had happened. Cause he really saw me that night.

Secondly, I'm not convinced about the "imprinting" theory, as most of my time is spent asleep due to working in the BPO field. I don't have a repetitive daily routine, as much of my time is spent outside of work. I also don't have any knowledge about the "ability to project my thoughts away" that you mentioned, but I'm curious to learn more about it.

Lastly, yes, most of the events took place either inside or near our house. I am more convinced that I am dealing with a mimicking entity, as there have been several instances where my relatives and friends have told me they "saw" me in various places, even though I wasn't actually there with them.

Welcome to YGS.

Hi Dumpp101.

I find these experiences to be intriguing an unnerving, though, in my opinion, the first one is a bit questionable given the involvement of alcohol.

Do you know if your uncle saw "your body" laying on the street after the taxi hit you? Did he approach the place of the accident to check if 'you' needed help or were badly hurt?
Did anyone go back to the street to check if a kid had been hit by a car, regardless if it wasn't you?

As for the other two incidents, from my own viewpoint, could have been the imprint left by the energy of an action you repeat constantly or, perhaps, you have the ability to 'project' your thoughts away from your physical body and some people can see this energy.

Did these events happen in the same house you saw the kapre from your other story? Would it be possible that you're dealing with a mimicking entity?

Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to YGS.

It seems like that place had a lot of paranormal activity, which is not a surprise given its history and previous use.

Thanks for sharing.

You and your family were very fortunate to witness such an interesting sign and proof that there's more beyond the 'end' of the physical body.

Thanks for sharing

This sounds a bit eerie Macmac.

Hopefully it is all back to normal now.

Cheers,
Kent

(⁠*⁠_⁠*⁠)

[at] lady-glow, I also think the same. Thanks for reading my story 😊

[at] Rajine
Yes my uncle did wrong and earned bad karma. As ancestors they want to always look after the family and also want us to keep them in thoughts. Thanks for reading my story 😊

Yikes! Very scary!
Those supernatural entities were obviously trying to hurt you. And also trying, with apparent great success, to get your parents to question your honesty and integrity!
Obviously demonic behavior. Maybe your Mom was right about ghosts really being demons in disguise.
I don't recommend that you try to "expand your abilities." It's dangerous.

Maybe in some way or another your grandparents are looking out for you and your family, it's sad what your uncle did but perhaps it was fate that brought your grandparents to your'll.

To keekee404:

A natural physical "fault with gravity" can be a lot scarier than a ghost story. Perhaps someone made up the ghost story to make the gravity hill seem LESS scary. Here's why:

A possible physical cause for gravity hills could be a gigantic hollow area or area of very low-density matter underground, perhaps several miles or tens of miles (or hundreds of miles?) in width and/or depth. Since gravity is caused by mass, such a gigantic hollow or low-density area would certainly affect the direction of gravity. If you're standing near the edge of the hollow, then the direction of gravity will not be exactly vertical, but will rather point slightly toward the region of greater mass or higher density. If this deviation in gravity is great enough, then cars will certainly roll in that direction. Even if it's slightly uphill. This is completely natural and physical and has nothing to do with the supernatural or paranormal.

The really scary thing about this is that the hollow or low-density area could collapse, and then people living over it will tumble down, down, down (perhaps tens or hundreds of miles) into the gigantic sinkhole. Yes, the natural/physical can sometimes be a lot more scary than the supernatural/paranormal!

To ownacar:

You mention gravity being messed up. Here is a possible physical (and very scary) reason for that:

Allisongabrielle pointed out that there are deep mines and "bottomless pits" in the area. Since gravity is caused by mass, such gigantic sinkholes would certainly affect the direction of gravity. If you're standing near the edge of a very large and deep sinkhole, then the direction of gravity will not be exactly vertical, but will rather point slightly away from the sinkhole. If this deviation in gravity is great enough, then cars will certainly roll in that direction. Even if it's slightly uphill. This is completely natural and physical and has nothing to do with the supernatural or paranormal.

The really scary thing about this is that it would take a mighty big sinkhole (or underground hollow region) to produce a gravitational deviation large enough to move a car. Not sure whether the mines/sinkholes that you already see are large enough, but if not, then there might be more and larger hollow regions underground that you don't see. These gigantic hollow regions could be enough to change the direction of gravity enough to move a car. If such a hollow region collapses, then people living over it will tumble down, down, down (perhaps miles or even tens or hundreds of miles) into the gigantic sinkhole. Yes, the natural/physical can sometimes be a lot more scary than the supernatural/paranormal!

Interesting story. I'm guessing your grandmother used her great grandchild (your niece), as a medium to let the family know that she's still around and aware of what is going on in the lives of her loved ones.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi AussieRedDog

That would be enough to send anyone running for their lives, adults included.

Hi again SashB

Seems like your those people are just digging for information about you, it's best to cut out those people from your life.

I believe you when you say that about the lock, unfortunately the only way for that curse to be broken is by your mums passing, I talk from experience.

I had an aunt that passed away some years ago, she was the best, fun, caring, excellent cook, the whole 9 yards, over the years she developed a type of growth in her stomach that looked like a hernia, she went to have it removed but somehow it came back bigger than previously and after that she was to afraid to go through going to the hospital again and left it at that, when she passed away and when my mum and other aunts went to bath and dress her up they said that it was a shock that the growth she had was no longer there and her stomach was flat (belly button normal, no stretched skin due to the size of the growth) there was no tell tale signs suggesting that there was anything there in the first place, there have been a lot of incidents throughout her life regarding people doing stuff to her and her family for us to believe that whatever it was wasn't medical, but we always went to logical and rational route before deciding to take the supernatural. It really was like whatever was done to her left her the day she died, like once it's job was done draining her life away it left, leaving no trace behind.

Hi SashB

That makes sense, your mum is looking out for you and you will get signs from her just to let you know that she's guiding you.

Thank you everyone for the comments. By reading through all the comments and the link shared, seems like it's sleep paralysis as their was no before and after experience and whole incidence happened for few minutes. I was awake but was unable to move any body part due to which I felt like the force I put is overpowered by something from outside holding the blanket

[at] CantunSEEit74 Thank you. Yes it was a horrible incident. Until today we are not sure what happened to her teeth as she did not even swallow it. She was really brave and strong.

[at] Rajine You certainly know Durban people. Funny that you mentioned it because this morning I got a call from a family member saying that those people were enquiring about me, and how my family is doing. I am a very private person. I have blocked so many people on social media and Watsapp. I like the quiet life I am living.

My dad and older brother spent about R300000 over the years taking her to different type of spiritual healers. Everybody said the same thing, but nobody was able to cure her. Apparently they had placed a curse on her using a lock, and then threw it into the ocean.

It may seem far-fetched but it is the truth. I have so much more to share. This platform is actually a part of my healing process.

Love & light

SashB

[at] Rajine you are right herbs are great. Yes she only saw her on the day of the funeral, however this lady is now my bestie over the last 11 years. She has been there for me whenever I needed a shoulder. I would think it was my mum's way of showing me this was the right person to have in my life.

Hi SheilaSharpe

Sounds like a random haunting, perhaps from a passing spirit, or maybe a resident one, but from what I've read it doesn't seem to be menacing.

Just to add to my previous comment, from reading your story, it seems that whatever was sent to cause harm left the moment your mum passed, it's like once it's job was done there was no reason for it to hang about, as for the dreams and your mum becoming possessed and asking to return the arm and leg... Well I'm sure you probably know what that means, have you or your family ever went to seek spiritual guidance or to find out exactly what was causing all this?

Hi again SashB

If I were to speculate, and knowing how our community here in Durban can be, I'd guess someone was probably jealous of your parents buying their own house, unfortunately I've had a few nasty experiences with jealous family members who will stop at nothing to try and cause harm, with the most vile methods imaginable.

Herbs is not so bad 😅, it's fascinating that your mum chose to appear in your work friends dream though, I wonder why is that, from what I've read your friend only saw your mum on her funeral day.

Sleep paralysis can be unnerving, and can sometimes be linked to the paranormal, but not always, one theory I have read somewhere is that sleep paralysis occurs when the body is tired but the brain is awake, but that's just one of many theories regarding this.

Hi SashB

I do believe that our loved ones that have passed on do give us signs now and then, just to let us know that they are around, guiding us.

I really feel for your mother. What a shame fighting with a mean spirit. One can latch on to anyone of us at any time. This story should wake up some of the cemetery ghost hunters as you never know what you will drag home to your family. To lose your 2 front teeth from a spirit, I do not even want to think that could ever happen. My heart goes out to you for having to live with those memories, and your mother may she rest in peace. I really hope he is gone from that bedroom.

[at] lady-glow [at] The_Lost_Voyage_11 Thank you for you guys feedback. Yes I certainly know that my parents are looking after me. I am soon going to share with you all how my dad communicates with me. You know the funny thing is when they on the physical plane they are so different, because my mum and I never shared any closeness. She was always cold and never paid attention to me. It was always a struggle but I guess now that she is on the other side, things are different

What a touching and lovely experience.

Our loved ones can be very creative when it comes to communicating with us after their passing.

Thanks for sharing

Hi Akkikad.

I agree with the previous poster, this seems an episode of sleep paralysis, unnerving, yes, though not necessarily paranormal.

Perhaps you would like to read the linked story which, in my opinion, is a very comprehensive analysis of sleep paralysis.

Https://www.yourghoststories.com/real-ghost-story.php?story=28437

Thanks for sharing.

Hello SashB, what a touching story, it's amazing how our loved ones find ways to connect after their passing. Your story continues to validate there is much beyond our physical existence!

It sounds like from this story and the other one about the scent, that your mom is definitely looking after you. She sends reminders that she's there. You two share an amazing connection! She certainly sounds like she has a great sense of humor too!

Thanks for sharing! I'm sure we'll hear more!

Hello Akkikad, interesting experience.

I need to clarify something about your story, now you said you were unable to remove your blanket, as if something was holding it down, then you mentioned being frozen or paralyzed. What happened when you tried to remove the blanket, were you able to move at all, or were you paralyzed then as you didn't mention that fact until a little later?

To be clear, I don't doubt your story, I'm just trying to understand what exactly happened.

It sounds like sleep paralysis to me, if you were just paralyzed and unable to move the whole time. That's not paranormal, but something that many people have experienced. Science has tried to explain it and there is another belief I concur with, that I'd be happy to share with you, but first I want to make sure I understand completely what happened.

If it was sleep paralysis, it can be scary, but rest assured it's more common than you think. You also stated the room was comfortable and nice, and never mentioned feeling any negative or malevolent energy during the experience, or seeing or hearing anything supernatural.

As I said, from what I understand of your story, it sounds like sleep paralysis, but I'll wait to see if you can tell me more about what happened in that time you were stuck under the blanket. If it;s what I think though, hopefully that will clear some of the fear from your experience.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi SashB.

Thank you for sharing this bitter sweet and touching experience with us. I'm sorry for your loss.

I'm sure your mother has come to visit her loved ones after her passing.

Ha ha Lady Glow...actually, even since I've given up on cigarettes (seven years now) my sense of smell is very acute. I know the smell of mice and rat pee... Want me to go through the details of the smell of rat and mice pee? 😁 😆

Congratulations!
Your sense of smell must be phenomenal if you're able to tell apart the origen of each one of those urines among - what I imagine - was a horrible stench.
But then, perhaps that's the "Dog" part in your screen name.

What if there was somebody staying in there. Did you yell out hello is anyone here before entering. Do they have old time radio stations in your country. If you work there again open the door. Look for current movement. Poor people are everywhere. I doubt a demonic presence would be singing an old-time song in a female voice. How did you know it was the kitchen door if you did not open it. You said you smelled human piss. I would have said HELLO FRIEND for starters and went from there. Trespassing up to that door then backing away is a good reason to get shot. You may have missed a meeting with a poor old lady alive or maybe in spirit.

Dear Miss Otaku,

I'm really glad that your brother saw the smoke and the glowing orb. And that other witnesses have seen handprints in the baby powder. I'd be a LOT more scared if there were NO supernatural/paranormal phenomena (other than the car rolling). Here's why:

A possible physical cause for gravity hills could be a gigantic hollow area or area of very low-density matter underground, perhaps several miles or tens of miles (or hundreds of miles?) in width and/or depth. Since gravity is caused by mass, such a gigantic hollow or low-density area would certainly affect the direction of gravity. If you're standing near the edge of the hollow, then the direction of gravity will not be exactly vertical, but will rather point slightly toward the region of greater mass or higher density. If this deviation in gravity is great enough, then cars will certainly roll in that direction. Even if it's slightly uphill. This is completely natural and physical and has nothing to do with the supernatural or paranormal.

The really scary thing about this is that the hollow or low-density area could collapse, and then people living over it will tumble down, down, down (perhaps tens or hundreds of miles) into the gigantic sinkhole. Yes, the natural/physical can sometimes be a lot more scary than the supernatural/paranormal!

Wow
I can feel the history and needed to read parts. 3,2 and the first stories 😲 such a pity they need to torn down those old places... But positive view-of-point, the city is growing progressing its way 😉

Sending love ❤

Lost Voyage, don't think that the whole street will be demolished as the Historical Society is still fighting against it so that means more work for us in the meantime. I'm actually glad that I didn't open that door, Christ knows what could've been there... Maybe nothing? 😕

Hello AussieRedDog, great story, I always enjoy reading about your experiences, the way you describe them, it takes the reader right there with you as it's happening!

It's too bad that such an historic area has to be destroyed, all in the name of progress though, right!

I understand that feeling of 'trespassing' as well, an energetic feeling I'm familiar with. I was curious as well as to what was beyond that door, whether you would have seen something or were just hearing and experiencing an old memory fading down the corridors of time!

Either way, thanks for sharing!

I can't imagine what would have been waiting for you on the other side of that door... But sometimes it's best not to go looking for unwanted trouble, my guess is that what you experienced is probably a resident spirit that house belonged to.

Hello MythBelieve, I like that you chose to look at the more logical side of SP, as it's good to keep an open mind about thing's, especially the paranormal side. With that said, I'd like to give my opinion about this. Granted I personally have not experienced SP, but my husband of 12 years has. He's actually the one that I learned about what SP is. My husband has experienced this for most of his adult life. I don't believe that every episode of SP, is exactly linked with the paranormal side, but I do believe that there's times that it is. I also agree with you about our sleep routines etc, can play a major part in this experience, but I don't believe that's always the case. For my husband, he's experienced both what I believe is not paranormal related SP, and is paranormal related SP. I think lost voyage has a point, about people that are able to astral project in their sleep, experiencing the paranormal side of SP. My husband seems to have that ability, and I believe when he's experienced the paranormal during SP, it's because there's some sort of spirit or whatever, that was around him at the time. We're both empath, and seem to draw spirits to us, as we've experienced the paranormal side, throughout our entire lives so far, no matter where we live. I think for you, you've been fortunate enough to only experience the scientific side of it though. Some people are more connected to the spirit world than others, so not all will see the paranormal side. I've also had a very close loved one, that had dementia and alzheimers, who would at times, claim to see thing's that we could not. But for me to experience this with my loved one, it made me question if what he was seeing, was really there, but beyond our site of seeing. I feel with them being so close to the veil to the other side at that time, it would make sense as to why they're seeing something we cannot. Where my loved one would say he would see something, I had already felt a presence in that home, ever since I was a little child, and even had one that breathed in my ear, when I was staying the night there, yet there was no one else in the room with me at that time. I'm not trying to say you're wrong and I'm right about this topic though. I just wanted to share my opinion and experiences with this. I hope it helps somehow in your theory to it.

[at] TravisCannabis no, and it only happened once. We don't have a history of drug use nor involved in drugs or any sort of substance.

Idk man. Don't take me wrong but r u sure your cousin wasn't high? 🤔

Sometimes our own mind plays with us but as I wasn't there to actually witness the situation, I can't really say. Make sure the next time you encounter anything as such, you tell yourself to calm down and find the cause of the situation before making any judgements

Hi Rajine, at first I really don't believe because who the hell sane will try to act like that, until then I witnessed it myself. I haven't seen a demon though, that's why I have hard time convincing myself that an entity indeed is responsible for someone's possession because I don't have a third eye and I am not sensitive. Although I sometimes see some entities on my periphery vision I do not considering it as seeing ghosts the way others with an open third eye, especially because when I move my eye to where they are, there's nothing there.

Last night I encountered something that was nothing. 9.15 PM laying in bed we have 2 adjustable large twins with remotes. After about 10 minutes laying watching tv I hear an odd buzzing and notice the end of wife's bed is slowly moving up and down and I have not touched her side of bed except the blanket covering both. I get up and pull mattresses apart, but no remote fell in here, I am giggling a little now this looks impressive and go look down hall into Livingroom and tell wife her bed is going off. We are both looking for remote now and finally find it between the very top head area of mattress pinched against very bottom of wood headboard and wood is touching 2 buttons at once. This remote could have quietly fell to the carpet and would then look like something more than a pinched remote. Debunking is half the fun.

Well, I was wondering the same thing as the rest of the people here...
Anklet...crickets...
It all could be explained quite scientifically, if you were calm enough...

I kind of have a feeling that this kind of stories around is sending people to a maze of guessing with no answer...

To explain that, yes, many ghost stories had no hardened ending because its an experience of oneself, while some are trying to confuse readers and would hide explainable parts so that it is mysterious IN PURPOSE...

Which ones does your story belong to? I think there is an answer to it now when you read the comments.

Have a look in my previous stories, I rushed to post.
Though easily debunked, easily explained and I am not saying that those are good stories at all, but unless readers have a chance to answer and ask some questions (I am just setting some bad examples but did not know who to start with)

This story have no materials that we can question on, to be able to explain or even talk about... Harsh but we all here had seen too much of such stories.

Hey, can I bet $50 for Troll?

Rajine.

Although I still would have to hear the sound of anklets in order to know the difference, reading this story reminded me of an old story in this forum about a cricket and the sound of anklets.

Https://www.yourghoststories.com/real-ghost-story.php?story=17924

Now I wonder if some, or all, of the stories from India reporting the sound of anklets as proof of a spirit's presence are nothing else than a case of mistaken identity, mixed with fear, and reluctance to investigate instead/before of screaming "it's a ghost!".

I still think that you should investigate if the 'ghostly anklets' have a mundane origin. Perhaps you can start by going again to the park around the same time and, if you hear them again, check the area. With some luck you'll find your cricket.

Also, wouldn't the proximity of the temple offer some kind of protection against paranormal/negative presences?

The point is, life is too short to waste it being afraid of any noise or shadow that crosses ones path.

Crickets and anklets have two very distinct and different sounds, I talk from experience because all of the women in my family uses it for certain occasions so I'm quite familiar with what it sounds like, also we have crickets so I'm very familiar with the sound those insects make, I can't say for sure if what you experienced is supernatural. Maybe speak to others around there and see if they have experienced similar incidents like yours.

Possession is quite real and scary, I've had my fair share of witnessing possession, it happens for a lot of reasons from random spirits attaching themselves to certain jealous people causing harm to others.

Hi again nesty

Has anyone else ever experienced this as well? Sometimes spirits tend to reveal themselves to certain people, not really sure why though.

Hi lady-glow, I still cannot explain how I got this fever, and I think yes one possibility might be that I was infected. As for my cousin, I do not know any details how it started, one thing I know is that it happened before she had converted to Born-Again Christian. I can say she's gloomy and not so sociable person by then.

Oh man, I just read the first paragraph and before I read any more I just had to come here and write a comment. My grandpa had dementia. It got to the moderate stage, so he could still remember people. He remembered me when I was there in May! Even though at one point he confused my mom for his sister. Anyway, I'm SO GLAD that he died because of a fall and not dementia. I've read about the end stage of dementia, and it sounds like people really do become shells of their former selves. I know that it would've crushed us all to see him decline like that, so I'm glad it didn't happen that way. My point here is that I can't even IMAGINE what it would've been like to see your dad decline like that. I'm so sorry you had to witness it. I'm glad you were there for him, but it must've been so, so hard. I give you hugs, my friend. 🤗

Didn't they take you to see a doctor in case the fever was health related? Perhaps a mild infection or something else?

If not, in my opinion, it's difficult to say if you were under the attack of an invisible entity, or under the attack of a microscopic organism.

Likewise, it's hard to say if praying the Rosary was the cure, or if it was only a minor illness following it's normal course.

As for your cousin, I'm glad to know she's fine. Any idea how and why she got possessed?

WRITE A BOOK! Or a song, either one would be good, but you have a talent for writing.

I think that you should investigate all logical possibilities and explanations before rushing to submit a story lacking a context, and burdening the readers expecting to answer what your experience was about.

If you, been there, can't be sure what these events were, how do you expect any one else to know?
Is this a guessing game?

Hello Everyone,

I had similar experiences with these "static people." As a kid (around 4-6 years old), I remember being visited by them in my bedroom at night. They appeared as a family - two parents and two children - standing at the end of my bed. They whispered among themselves but never interacted with me directly. As a child, they scared me, but not to the point where I screamed or cried for help. I was visited twice on separate nights, and during the second encounter, I turned on my side to avoid seeing them and went back to sleep.

Looking back, I wonder whether these visits were just vivid dreams. Now that I'm an adult, I find it hard to believe that static beings actually visited me. I've also heard it's common for people to experience similar dreams. Carl Jung, the Swiss psychiatrist, and psychoanalyst, proposed the idea of a collective unconscious - a shared reservoir of memories and archetypes inherited from our evolutionary past. One archetype, "the shadow," represents repressed ideas, weaknesses, and desires, and it can manifest in dreams as frightening figures, like these static people.

I understand the appeal of believing we encountered something paranormal, but do you think these experiences were real? Or is it more likely we were dreaming or misremembering? I'd love to hear someone's thoughts!

Best,

Matthew

You seem easily excited. You should have been still and asked questions. Do only females wear anklets, somebody's dog collar and name tag you did not see clanking around. I see a pattern forming. You can't just ghost and run.? TROLL? Do some foot work find out something we are not here to finish your story. It did work on your last story.
