Ghost stories comments: Page 10

Thank u crimson. Whatever I have shared here is hundred percent truth. There is a world different to ours and there are things not known to human eye, but they do exist. Such as birth takes place, we all die. Beyond death also exists some thing. Please comment on the other stories too. Waiting for your comments on them, too. Thank u. Take care

Amchi86, You've been very busy with all your entries to this site. Thank you for sharing all your experiences. Most appreciated.

Kowalkoj, I'm so sorry for your loss and may your brother RIP. What a kind, and helpful comment from Lovely Ladyglow who has mentioned a cleansing. I don't need to repeat that suggestion to you, but I will say the cleansing process really helps. (My sister continues to cleanse her home) to ward off negative spirits.

The book's name is world famous ghosts and it is printed by pustak mahal (new delhi). Just search for it on the internet. You can even purchase it. It's author name is ashok kumar sharma. It contains all true ghost stories and events.

"I had read in some book based on the paranormal that the cat of nabeshima and cat of Oklahoma, are a frightening truth."

Would you be able to provide the name of this book? Was it written in English?

(Un) fortunately nowadays there's Google to find all sorts of information, a little search for "ghost cat Oklahoma" took me to a series of articles about ghost cats... But none about real "ghost cats".

The more interesting is the following, in which the term "ghost cats" is used to describe the elusive puma or mountain lion.

/https://www.okl.coop/story/ghost-cat

If the book you've mention was written in English, I wonder if you misunderstood the word "ghost" for spirit, instead of the intended meaning.

I entered "sportman sullivan irish fires ghost cat oklahoma" and this is what I got:

It looks like there aren't many great matches for your search
Try using words that might appear on the page you're looking for. For example, "cake recipes" instead of "how to make a cake.

Do I believe on the existence of ghost cats? Yes, as a mater of fact, my deceased pet cats have come to visit from time to time. Nevertheless, I have my doubts about the cats you've mentioned specially the Japanese one, if you had the time to read the article linked on my previous comment, you'd realize that it is well documented like part of the folklore of Japan... Bun not of its history.

I'm sorry for your loss. May your brother's memory be eternal.

Hi kowalkoj.

This is a set of very interesting experiences and, yes, I think all the activity you have described was caused by your brother. Perhaps he took his time leaving this plane in order to spend a little longer with you and this was a way to let you know that he is still around, even after his passing.

"Death" is not the end of love.

Although you have decided not to participate in the discussion, I'm going to ask few questions, not expecting and answer but, perhaps, these might help you to figure out what is going on in your place.

Was the activity you report on the second part of your story already happening before your brother's death?
If the answer is yes, perhaps you could start for asking your brother to stop doing this.

If not, and you suspect the presence of a stranger in your place, it would be a good idea to perform a cleansing/blessing of the house according to your personal beliefs, or ask for the help of a religious leader.

Good luck and thanks for sharing.

I do not know, but I had read in some book based on the paranormal that the cat of nabeshima and cat of Oklahoma, are a frightening truth. The cat of Oklahoma, was indeed a ghost which had created a lot of mischief in the area, where it stayed. It was also mentioned, that a famous Irish sports man named Sullivan had fired on this cat, but it disappeared. Do check the internet for more activities on these ghostly animals and do update me. My current age is thirty six. Waiting for your reply.

Dude, Are you for real?! 😳
Do you think the cat fable is true? How old are you? 🤔

It did not happen to me, but my maternal uncle. The main thing is that I am puzzled who was that beautiful woman, who sat on the yezdi bike's backseat as the previous owner had met with an accident, when he was alone, riding the yezdi, which my maternal uncle (my mother's brother) later learnt. There are many questions unanswered. Can someone help me about it.

GingerRead.

I'm looking forward to read your next story.

Need more characters.

Hi GingerRead

I can't imagine how sad it must have been for your great grandmother, never to hear from her father again, those days were tough times for everyone... But I'm sure she was comforted by her experience and got closure she needed.

Hi Amchi1986

I suppose the bike could be haunted, kind of reminds me of a scene in the conjuring when they drive with the Annabelle doll and get stuck in front of a cemetery and the ghosts/spirits there are instantly attracted to the doll. It sort of happened to you and that spirit was attracted to that bike because it's like some sort of conduit. 🤔 🤷‍♂️

Hi cantunSEEit74

I wonder what the stick Indians are, it must have been unnerving to experience that I a secluded place at night.

Hmmm...Amchi:

" Have you read about the cat of nabeshima. I suppose it took place in Japan.'

Actually, "The cat of Nabeshima" is a tale, or fictitious story, written with the purpose of showing "how a samurai is supposed to behave: putting his lord's welfare and life ahead of his own."

Here is the link to the whole story, in case you are interested on reading it. There's no mention of the cat having "reverse feet" though... I supposed people from different countries have embellished the original tale by adding elements meaningful to their own cultures.

Https://www.japanpowered.com/folklore-and-urban-legends/the-vampire-cat-of-nabeshima

What can you tell me about the question I asked in my last comment? Is it acceptable for men in India to praise the beauty of a strange woman on her presence when she is in the company of a male friend?

Hi CantunSEEit74--I really enjoyed reading your account. The property sounds beautiful. I had a one-time audial (and olfactory) experience back in the 90s when I lived in a haunted apartment. What I heard didn't sound like what you described, but it did last for around ten minutes. Much like you, my wife and I were woken in the middle of the night to the incredibly loud sound of what seemed like a car's tires "burning rubber." Again, like you, I looked out the window, but there were no cars, and a freshly fallen layer of snow showed that nobody had driven by in some time.

The sound, however, grew louder, as if there was a car in our small living room, and then the thick smell of burning tire rubber filled the whole apartment! It was mid-winter, but we had to open up all the windows to dispel the smell. After ten minutes, the sound just stopped. My two neighbors told me that they had heard nothing that night. In my case, there were A LOT of other paranormal occurrences at this location, but this only happened once. Did you ever experience anything else out of the normal on that property or find out more about the "stick Indians"? Very interesting account--thanks for sharing.

I haven't read about the Japanese cat.

This isn't the one I was hoping to find but I thought this might interest you, as it's kind of similar to your uncle's.
Https://www.yourghoststories.com/real-ghost-story.php?story=25227

Yes. Have you read about the cat of nabeshima. I suppose it took place in Japan. That cat was a ghost and had harrased innocent people all around and even, it had reverse feet. Just check about it.

Amchi, what I remember of it was it happened at night. Someone was riding home from somewhere. They were riding with someone on the back of the bike, I think they'd picked up a hitchhiker, not sure. During the ride the person noticed the other person's feet were resting on the bike like normal except they were backwards. That's all I remember. I'm fairly sure it was from India and the backwards feet person was female. I think the OP was retelling something which happened to a family member who was a young man at the time it occurred.
In the comments some people were talking about backwards feet being a sign of evil in the country of origin.

If I find it I'll post the link here.

Did the event take place when the rider was passing by a burial ground or during night time, when such evil spirits are active to trouble innocent people? If so, do send me the link. Excited to know more about it. I read in some book, that during night time and full moon night, evil spirits get more power, particularly during lunar moon time. Please do explain me more about it.

Hi there,

I read a similar incident to this years ago on here. Where someone from India described riding a bike with a female spirit whose feet were reversed/backwards. I can't seem to find it now unfortunately. But the comments talked about a particular Indian entity or legend known to do this.
Will post the link if I find it.

Hi Cantunseeit,

You're not a bonehead for trying to confirm, you're brave, most people would't dare bring up the subject!
During this encounter you were aware of keeping a safe distance due to covid. Perhaps this entity was also invested in keeping a safe barrier between you and your neighbour. Like "Hi, you see me right? Yep, okay, cool, my job is done, bye now!"

Your neighbour sounds like the real bonehead in this. Being irritated for waking him up from a nap at 4pm, poor diddums. Everyone gets woken up from a nap, it's no big deal. I had no idea sticky mouse traps existed, blerugh what a jerk, that's nightmare fuel.

I just read your experience 'Stick Indians' but couldn't think of anything to add and was curious about anything else you'd experienced, so here I am.

[at] lady-glow: damn you, autocowreck!:)

As usual, I find myself wanting to know more, but this is from so long ago. 30-ish years now. It is unlikely to get more data, but if it has only happened to you once, that is a relief. If you still have the cabin, maybe setup a trail cam and see what it might capture.

Its doesn't a matter that you made typing mistake
We got that pointing while reading story
No need to worry about it
Have a nice day

See, nor my uncle knew about the past of the yezdi bike nor I (as I was not even born during that time and my maternal uncle was a total non believer in the supernatural and used to consider it as only imagination of humans. He told me, that when his friend warned him against using that bike, he poked fun and laughed at him. But that frightening event changed his views towards the supernatural and he became a believer.

It may be. Sorry for my typing mistake "strong believer in the paranormal ".it should be non believer. See burial grounds are not safe during nighttime, many say that negative energy and ghosts are active during night time. May be she was a chudail. You may be correct. Thanks for your explaination. Sorry, never ever will such a typing mistake take place on my behalf. Thank you. Waiting for more views on this story.

HI AMCHI
ACCORDING to your story thay lady may be a chudail which cames from that shmshan
bike is haunted means may by that person died in accident with any lady

Correction "Perhaps the neighbour payed a prank of you, or it were the Stick Indians"

It should say "Perhaps the neighbours played a prank on you, or it was the Stick Indians".

I shouldn't use my phone for commenting!

That sounds like an idyllic place to take a brake from daily routine. I feel sorry for the beavers.

The way you describe the sound makes me think of a "palo de lluvia", a musical instrument used by the people of some parts of South America.
Https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQ4CGFU33yA

Perhaps the neighbour payed a prank of you, or it were the Stick Indians...regardless, I'm glad it only happened once.

Thanks for sharing

Hello Lady Glow! Thank you so much for your kind comment! Should have my next story completed soon!

Also, I find it hard to fathom that "a person known to him asked, "hey, who is that beautiful girl sitting on your backseat. She is so beautiful."", would ask such a question on the presence of the woman, without caring to embarrass and be disrespectful to her by saying these things.

Is this an acceptable habit for men to do in India?

Sorry, by mistake I typed was a "strong believer in the paranormal ".it should have been" Non believer in the paranormal ".thanks for correcting my typing and spelling mistake. In the future, nothing of this sort will take place 😊.

Hello GingerRead.

This is such a lovely and reassuring experience, a proof that distance is not a barrier for love.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Amchi.

Not being critical but, I think it would be a good idea not to rush to submit your stories without previously proofread them.

"He was a strong believer in the paranormal, until a incident changed his point of view."

My first thought was that he had stopped believing in the paranormal after whatever I was to read following the above paragraph... But no, the events would be enough to convince even the hardest core skeptic.

Yet again...it's hard to answer your questions based on the little information provided by your narrative.

MythBelieve.

I completely agree with you, that part sounds a bit... Sketchy. But so are several points of this narrative.

I have to confess that, the first thing I'm skeptical about, is the supposed age of this poster, a "middle age adult", according to the age groups of the forum, they should be between 40 to 60 years old. Yet, their demeanour and comments speak of a much younger person.

Anyway, I see that your smart and respectful comment has been unfairly downvoted 7 points. This has been happening of lately to any comment that resembles a criticism or questioning any questionable story, specially if it is from India.

Apologies for my response in advance but it feels so odd... Usually if I am moving between cities for a conference, the hotel will be pre-booked and if the meeting is getting finished at such an odd hour 12 AM, a normal person will certainly look for an accommodation nearby or take a transport given that I am new to this place

you can ask that tantric s about that house who's sprit was that
May they can give
And about black magic if black magic spelled on someone we should remove earlier aS WE CAN beacause as it becomes older it will become stronger and dangerouse

Hi Amchi,

Don't take peoples comments to heart. I don't see anyone making light of you or your family's situation. Just some people having a bit of fun and giving honest responses.
Sometimes, especially in English speaking countries, we make fun of something which makes no sense. Since most of the paranormal world makes no sense, it tends to have a funny side to a lot of us, myself included. But no one here would ever seriously make fun of someone who is in genuine fear and in need of help.

Ask your family members for details on the time of year this happened. Did both sightings happen at a similar time of year? This could give you a reference point to start from. Did the woman wear anything specific to a time period?
Lady Glow and Travis are right, research the location. But also know no one can give you a definite answer, we can only help you make sense of what happened.

Thanks people for your love and support other than those who are mean.see, some people whom I know (sorry I can't tell you their names as it is confidential) used to perform black magic, doll magic, and even Vermillion rituals, used to keep our home atmosphere full of fear. I never used to stop in my house, whenever others used to go out and sit on the staircase outside our home, until everyone came back. Those were the most scary days of my life, until everything became silent after quite a few years. I have experienced hell in my growing years in my house. Sometimes I also used to hear cat's mewing, dog barking and someone laughing in a insulting manner. Thanks to God and the hindu monk's interference, these things have stopped.

hi amchi
It may be she was died in that house which was your home
As any one who knows history about that home
Or that land may be you will get any clue

And about solution you said that after rituals everything is normal so I think you no need any solution

Amchi1986, Unusual for the ghost to laugh without any apparent reason. Maybe the ghost was playing tricks and found it amusing that she scared your mother. I'm so sorry your family experienced such fear. See if you can get to the bottom of this. Do some Google searches on the area and see what happened there before it became residential dwellings. The library might be able to shine some light with books that contain the town's history. You might even find a picture of this ghost. Hope you get some answers and are able to get some closure.

The presence could be anything; something that haunts the place, or an object in your home, or even a specific person. Best way to figure it out is to try and find out the history of the place, or even watch out for any peculiar items that could be the source of it. There's also the possibility that it could be a manifestation of something and taking the form of someone else? There's little to go by at this point. It's a relief you and your family are safe.

Also, please don't let mean-spirited comments deter you from sharing your experiences, and thank you for sharing ❤

Thank u. But my mother and grandmother (my father's mother) both said that the woman was laughing at them in a strange manner. May be what you have said can be a truth. Thanks for your suggestion. Rather than others, who were poking fun, hope you understand our situation better. God be with you and your family. Thanks.

Amchi1986, I'm so sorry that your family have gone through this scary situation. It must have been unbearable. Your poor mother must have been so scared. Do you know anyone who passed away that may have visited your mother to say goodbye? Maybe that ghost was trying to reach out to your mother, maybe that ghost had a message for her from someone she knew.
Stay safe, and thanks for sharing your experience.

Yes I still stay in the same house. But now the atmosphere here is good than before, when we all used to get scared staying alone. But since my mother and father visited a hindu monk, things are good. Please do not make fun of me, as what I have told is true. If you feel like laughing at me Or poking fun, please do not write cheap comments or otherwise leave in a silent manner. I do not care for those who love to insult /laugh on others.

This event took place in Mumbai, india. And please do not laugh at it and consider it to be a joke. What my mother saw was hundered percent reality. I do not exactly know about the history of this area, but there are some events that have taken place in my life, while staying here that have been really strange and difficult to understand. And if someone laughs at me and feels like poking fun at me, he /she should better leave me alone.

Very terrifying indeed Amchi86.

Albinism is an extremely rare condition but at least 100 thousand to 200 thousand such cases have been documented in India alone, and 1 in 5 thousand in Africa and less in any countries. Do you think this lady may have been an Albino lady who broke into your home and was scared off when your mother woke up?

Your mother was half asleep reaching for some water and was probably dazed and confused.

Then again, it is hard to help solve this for you not being present when it happened.

(⁽͈˙̑⁾˔̉⁽˙̑⁾͈)

Hi Amchi1986

I can't say that I'm surprised, considering that the British were apart of India for a long, long time, so one would find a few "white British" spirits lurking around here and there, but like the other commentors I need a bit more context here...

Are you still living in that house and apart from your mum and grandma has anyone else seen this spirit? Also do you know about the history of the house or possibly the surrounding area?

I suspect the "evil British woman" probably came from Britain. But joking aside, I somewhat agree with Travis here. We wouldn't know enough to come to much of a conclusion. Starting off, India is a very big country with something like 30, maybe 40, different languages, ethnicities, traditions, and so on. Could you tell us more specifically where in India this happened, please?

Maybe she came out of the loo and was looking for your grandma's secret naan bread recipe. 😜
Seriously bro... How the freak are we supposed to know the answer? 🤔 😕

Are you still living in that house or moved to another place?. And I think you should do research about that place and the history of that place. Hope your mother and your family is safe and happy ❤ ❤

Perhaps you could start by providing/researching information about the history of the area where the house stands...it's highly posible that the answer to your question is there.

CrimsonTopaz.

I think everyone makes mistakes...it's part of being human.

Greetings.

typo
Noun [ C ] informal
UK /ˈtaɪ.pəʊ/ US /ˈtaɪ.poʊ/

A small mistake in a text made when it was typed or printed

Https://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/english/typo

Hi Bengali.

Thanks for your feedback. The part about some hotels in India using padlocks for locking doors is interesting and explains why you were able to tell that no other room was taken that night, and the reason why you thought some one could have been locked in the adjacent room.

Unfortunately, in my opinion, this doesn't help to explain the discrepancy between your following statements:

"strange noises coming from the hallway. It sounded like someone was walking, but the steps were slow and deliberate"

And:

"SOUNDS WERE LIKE OF SCRATCHING MY ROOM DOOR,"

Furthermore, a typo is a little grammar mistake, like typing 1989 instead of 1998; or dgo instead of dog... But "SORRY THERE IS IS A TYPO IN THE THE STORY. I WANTED TO MENTION A SUICIDE WAS COMMITED IN THE ADJACENT ROOM.", can not be considered a typo, specially since there're two whole paragraphs in your original narrative describing the room being haunted and the reason behind this, plus your friend staying in the same room as you.

The point is, missing a word that changes completely the flow of your narrative makes the reader wonder if you have been truthful or if your work is fictional.

"SORRY I MISSED TO MENTION THAT IN THE STORY SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE CAUSED BY MY MISTAKES IN THE STORY"

I don't think your mistakes are inconvenient to anyone, if anything, they may have caused a negative first impression and made the readers question the credibility of your story.

It would be convenient if you read the submission guidelines of the site:

Https://www.yourghoststories.com/submit-story-guidelines.php

Val, I'm still making a ton of mistakes myself on YGS and can't point fingers and hopefully it didn't come across that way. I'm a bit of an old-duck who doesn't write or spell well and to top it off I'm as blind as a bat so I usually don't spot my mistakes when I read my comments back. Lol.

Thanks for the help. I don't know that we should not write in caps. Sorry for my mistake

Thanks for trying to help a fellow poster, CrimsonTopaz.😊 It is indeed considered very rude to type in all CAPS, it's considered to be like yelling and can result in deletion of the comment.

You should have properly known this fact that you must not visit any house or hotel in any forest, since there are many places in such deserted areas known to be haunted or they can also be places where criminals or other type of anti social elements stay to protect themselves from the police and to hide their secret, they might even kill you. It can be dangerous for your life also. You should have understood that something is wrong with the place, when they offered you the place at low rates and the same time you should have not stopped there and left as soon as possible. Take care. May God be with you always.

HI Bengali
Thanks for giving answer
I heared about bengal its famouse tantra and black magic
Is it true

Bengali9899, You have retold your experience well. It must be hard trying to write in foreign forums. It is also hard trying to remember to put every single detail in your narrative. You've done the best you can, that's all that matters. I feel for you being in such a frightening situation. Main thing is you left and were unscathed. (Try to avoid using CAPS) I think the quidlines say to avoid CAPS, or comments may be deleted by the moderators. (I don't mean to over step my mark Val). I'm just trying to help Bengali9899.
Thanks for sharing your experience. Hope to see more of your stories.

SORRY TO LUCKYJEE FORGOT TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION.

YOUR QUESTION. Are you from bengal or mumbai becouse you said that you retured to mumbai?

ANS: YES I BELONG FROM A BENGALI FAMILY AND MY TITTLE IS SARKAR
I RETURNED TO MUMBAI BECAUSE FROM LONAVALA THERE IS NO DIRECT TRAIN TO KOLKATA. SO FIRST I HAVE TO REACH CSMT (Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Terminus) AND THEN TAKE THE TRAIN TO HOWRAH TO REACH KOLKATA.

I THINK I AM ABLE TO ANSWER YOUR ALL QUESTIONS

DO CHECKOUT MY OLD STORY.

THANKS FOR READING MY STORY

PEACE OUT

😉 😉 😉

[at] Rajine, [at] lady-glow and [at] lucklyjee Thanks for your lovely comments and Questions. Now let me answers the questions asked by you people
Step by step

Now, let me answer the questions asked by lady-glow

First question asked by lady-glow

What made you get up and open the door if, after all, you were in a hotel and it wouldn't have been unusual if someone were up and about at any given time. Perhaps another guest heading out to the airport, or to the bus, or the train station, or even going to get something from a vending machine in the lobby?

ANS: AS I HAVE ALREADY MENTIONED IN THE STORY IT WAS A WEEK DAY AND THE HOTEL WAS COMPLETELY EMPTY. AND IN INDIA USUALLY HOTELS DON'T HAVE VENDING MACHINES. AS IT WAS CONFIRMED BY RECEPTIONIST AND SOUNDS WERE LIKE OF SCRATCHING MY ROOM DOOR, SORRY I MISSED TO MENTION THAT IN THE STORY SORRY FOR THE INCONVENIENCE CAUSED BY MY MISTAKES IN THE STORY

Q2. How do you know the next room was vacant? Did you ask for such information at the front desk, or did the receptionist offered it freely?

ANS: I KNOW THAT THE NEXT ROOM WAS VACANT BECAUSE IN INDIA SOME HOTELS SOMETIME USED PADLOCKS FOR LOCKING THE ROOM AND THE PADLOCK WAS HANGING INFORNT OF THE DOOR AS LOCKED.

Q3. Is this an acceptable/normal thing to do in India? Did it occur to you that, perhaps, the person staying in that room could have gotten up to use the washroom, or to do whatever else people have the right to do in the middle of the night without having to be questioned by their neighbours? Or was the sound of the steps extraordinary enough to make you forget the most basic good manners?

ANS: I KNOW THAT THE NEXT ROOM WAS VACANT BECAUSE IN INDIA SOME HOTELS SOMETIME USED PADLOCKS FOR LOCKING THE ROOM AND THE PADLOCK WAS HANGING INFORNT OF THE DOOR AS LOCKED.THAT'S WHY I THOUGHT THAT SOMEONE HAD BEEN LOCKED IN THAT ROOM. SO I HAVE GONE THERE TO HELP THE PERSON WHO GOT LOCKED BY SOMEONE.

Q4.Which room? As far as I can tell and based on your narrative, you were standing on the hallway, outside the door of the next room. Or do you mean you managed to enter the neighbouring, haunted room?


ANS:SORRY IT'S A MISTAKE GOT DONE WHEN I WAS TYPING THE STORY LINE "stumbled out of the room, my heart racing with fear." GOT MISPLACED IN THAT PLACE. NO I DIDN'T ENTERED THE ROOM.

Q5.1) that bellboy was very unprofessional and had a loose tongue
2) in which one of the two rooms did the woman committed suicide?


ANS:1) ANS IN INDIA MOSTLY PEOPLE TAKE MONEY AND BRIBE AND TELL THE TRUTH I DID'NT MENTIONED IN THE STORY BECAUSE I DO NOT PROMOTE THIS TYPE OF ACTIVITES.
2) SORRY THERE IS IS A TYPO IN THE THE STORY. I WANTED TO MENTION A SUICIDE WAS COMMITED IN THE ADJACENT ROOM.

SORRY FOR THE LONG COMMENT. HOPE I AM ABLE TO ANSWER ALL OF OUR QUESTIONS PERFECTLY.

ONCE AGAIN THANK YOU FOR READING MY STORIES. DO CHECKOUT MY ANOTHER STORY.

PEACE OUT

😊 😊 😊

Hi bengali
are you from bengal or mumbai becouse you said that you retured to mumbai
Any way your story was good
.

Hi Bengali.

From a non-native-English-speaker to another, and making it clear that I think you did a great job narrating your story, but there are some points that I find a bit confusing and would appreciate if you explain what you mean.

"I heard strange noises coming from the hallway. It sounded like someone was walking, but the steps were slow and deliberate... I got up and opened the door "

What made you get up and open the door if, after all, you were in a hotel and it wouldn't have been unusual if someone were up and about at any given time. Perhaps another guest heading out to the airport, or to the bus, or the train station, or even going to get something from a vending machine in the lobby?

" I realized that they were coming from the room next door, which was supposed to be vacant because there were no other tourists on my floor."

How do you know the next room was vacant? Did you ask for such information at the front desk, or did the receptionist offered it freely?

"I decided to investigate and knocked on the door, but there was no response"

REALLY?!?!?!
Is this an acceptable/normal thing to do in India? Did it occur to you that, perhaps, the person staying in that room could have gotten up to use the washroom, or to do whatever else people have the right to do in the middle of the night without having to be questioned by their neighbours? Or was the sound of the steps extraordinary enough to make you forget the most basic good manners?

Then you saw the shadow and "stumbled out of the room, my heart racing with fear."

Which room? As far as I can tell and based on your narrative, you were standing on the hallway, outside the door of the next room. Or do you mean you managed to enter the neighbouring, haunted room?

And the part that I really don't get and find it very contradictory is the following:

"when my fear got less. I went to the hotel again and asked the bellboy. He told me that the room that was given to me was haunted and recently a lady committed suicide in the room. They had given room to me because I told them that I would stay for few hours and leave (and I also asked for discount) ... I confided in a close friend about my experience who had stayed in the same room. To my surprise, they revealed that they had also had a similar experience in the same vintage hotel"

1) that bellboy was very unprofessional and had a loose tongue
2) in which one of the two rooms did the woman committed suicide?

IF she allegedly took her life in the room you and, previously, your friend stayed, why was her ghost making noises and coming out of the next room and not the, supposedly, haunted room they rented to you for a discount?

Sorry for the long comment.

I'll appreciate your feedback.

Hi Bengali9899

It must have been unnerving to go through that, what if it was something else that was there from before that unfortunate woman commited suicide.?

Tweed.

I have realised that I got the date wrong... The clowns lingered until some time in the afternoon/early evening of April 2nd, and began, at least for me, at some point in the night of March 31st.

Still, they were around longer than usual.

haha I thought the gag lingered for a bit longer than usual this time didn't realise it went until the 3rd LOL!

Lovely Lady, I have been in absolute stitches reading these comments. A first I was confused then caught on it was obviously done for April fools day. What a great way to brighten up readers days. I agree, keep them online. Lol.

Okay... It's the third day of April and the clowns haven't gone away... Though I wonder what is going on, I'm having a laugh reading the funny senseless comments on old stories.

It would be great if the site stayed like this for few more days!

Excellent story and story was very nicely explained. ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

I'm going to try some trigger words:

Ghost
Spirit
Story

So far all the words I have tried have been changed to clown... No purple pants, circus or red nose.

Hi Tweed.

I agree with you... What used to be a fun day reading the comments of confused members terrified by the changes done to their words, has become a day when no one says anything.

Sometimes YGS looks like a ghost town void of spirits.

Maybe if I put big red nose
505050505050505050
505050505050

Not so many clowns or people freaking out this year. Bah, this place is getting too sensible!
How does one make it say purple pants?

I've been reading a book by an author named Keith Linder. He has had experiences with a poltergeist for years in a house near Seattle. He has a YouTube channel with videos about his experiences as well. It might interest you to check them out. The book is called The Bothell Hell House.

FearMeNot.

I was hoping to read the link about the teacher dying in your school...oh, well... Sometimes silence says more than a thousand words.

Welcome Gugglemolly,

Blowing on the face is something I've experienced too, a long time ago. But I don't know what's behind it. Perhaps it's a way to get your attention, or to test if they/it whoever can get your attention. The scratches I thought perhaps you'd brushed by a shrub. If the scratches are paranormal, definitely seek some kind of psychic protection. Here's Rook's method (scroll down)

If you're also visited by well intending spirits Rook's method won't banish them, only the ones intending ill will.

Look forward to reading your other experiences. As you'll know, from reading here before, these things are usually a process to work through. But putting some kind of psychic or religious protection in place (whichever you're comfortable with) will help sort any good from any bad entities.

Tweed, eewww, I don't like gory or scary. I get into animal doco's, especially chimpanzees, romcom's and bit of local homegrown Aussie TV like Home and Away, MAFS, celebrity get me out of here, and a few other no brain- no strain free to air. (Love Dave Hughes). I started watching a lot on subscription TV and am really tuned in to a few boxsets. The list is too long to list. (I sound like a couch potato, hmm, maybe I am) lol
I'd love to know more about your dream visitations... If you get time to put any experiences online, I'll definitely read them.

gugglemolly, I must admit I come across scratches on my arms and question where they've come from. On the odd occasion I don't file a broken finger nail straight away if I'm busy doing something. It then becomes obvious it had to have been me. In your case accompanied with the cold air randomly blown on your face, it would be worthwhile to delve into what that could be. You've come to to right place, and welcome. I don't have any suggestions apart from what Ladyglow said.* Find a way to protect yourself*. There's a member on here *Rookdygin* who has a method to cleanse your home from unwanted spirits. I can tell you first hand, my sister has used it since joining this site and banished a rotten spirit. Hopefully for good. Hope things improve. Thanks for sharing.

CrimsonTopaz, comment overlap, sorry!

Haha, I'm glad my humour shines through. I have a giggle while I'm typing things up too.
Regarding how it works on the other side, I wonder if it has to do with our attitudes in life. V rejected anything was wrong with her, so maybe she carried it on to the other side, so she could come to peace with it there. I don't know, just speculation.

I actually looked up the ulcer bit on YouTube while I was typing this up and Downtown Abbey is exactly the drone fest I'd imagined it to be haha. The scene in question was kind of lame if you're into gory stuff lol.

Rajine,

I kind of think some souls do become their perfect selves when they pass on. But I wonder about the ones who still exhibit turmoil. The rules of the supernatural do seem to follow their own logic. If only there was a handbook!

Lady Glow,

With hindsight I can imagine why they get so defensive. The level of denial and bizarre reasoning is well established. They've probably had things happen that I'm unaware of and are well practiced at entering into 'denial mode'.

Manafon,

Lol that might explain why her energy was so strong in the car. If your split spirit theory is correct someone like V would be already accomplished at splitting their consciousness.

Tweed, yet another great retelling of your events. So well written. It was like someone was reading a book to me.
I chuckled a few times. When you said *C: "I've been watching Downtown Abbey."Me: "What are you watching that sh*t for?* I've never watched that myself, thought I might add it to my list but will definitely remove it now. And V's scissor collection hobby also make me smirk. When you said it was like Donkey Kong, it had me reflecting back to all us kids growing up and how it would have been with 9 kids running around like cockroaches. My poor parents. I love your sense of humour.
I really hope a couple of people I knew who past away haven't taken their rotten characteristics with them in fear of them visiting me. I would be absolutely petrified. No chance that will happen. I don't tend to see spirits like Mia. I have started dreaming of my father and would love to know more about that.
I'm so glad B came for V and things have settled down. Thanks for sharing your family's experience.

Hi Tweed--What a typically fascinating account. I've come to believe in recent years that part of the spirit of the deceased can remain behind for a period of time, while another part goes on to "do the do" in whatever the next phase of the soul's journey is. The part that remains is part of the person that is still deeply attached to their time here as flesh and blood. Of course, this splinter spirit aspect might very well be part of a bigger picture for the whole of the soul too, as it gathers lessons/knowledge/whatever before rejoining its other aspect.

If this is a possibility, it makes sense that the part of the spirit that remains here would retain its biases, conditions, attitudes, and so on. It's something that just makes sense with a lot of reported hauntings. So, a spirit that hated swearing (for instance) would make it known that it still fu**ing hates it 😉

Hi gugglemolly19.

"I am someone who will encounter something paranormal but ignore it/not engage as I know better, and do my best to stay out of their way."

By this, do you mean you're a sensitive of some sort?
If so, it's possible that what you have experienced is someone trying to get your attention.

Furthermore "My coworker jokingly put "kind, haunted, and unique," for me... A few have brought it up to me since, insinuating that I am actually haunted."

Do you know what makes your co-workers think this way?

May I ask if the air blowing on your face made you feel more than cold air? Something more like a sense of danger, sadness, love, etc.?

My point is, if you are a sensitive but don't want this gift, (nothing wrong with not wanting it), perhaps you should find a way to protect yourself from spirit unwanted attention.

Looking forwards to read more of your experiences.

Hi gugglemolly19

From what I've read, only you seem to be experiencing stuff, not anyone at home and not anyone at work. I'm not sure if there's a connection with your personal experiences and your place of work being an ancient burial ground, perhaps if other coworkers have experienced strange things then that would explain it.

Or perhaps you could be a sensitive and indeed your place of work is an ancient burial ground, that only you can experience.

In my personal experiences, random scratches aren't a good sign, especially if you didn't inflict it on yourself, knowing or unknowingly.

If you feel like you are haunted then perhaps you can speak to someone reputable about this. Who will be able to shed some light on whatever you are going through.

I'm looking forward to reading more about your other experiences.

Hi Tweed.

I enjoyed very much reading your story. In my opinion, your father and his wife sound too defensive and in denial when it comes to dealing with the paranormal... Perhaps they think acting this way will protect them from whatever they might have experienced but don't want to acknowledge.

I wonder if C sensed her mother's presence in the car, but is unable to see her.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Tweed

I've always believed that once a person passes on, their soul/spirit becomes what I'd like to call "perfect" again. Perfect in the sense of being free from all the earthly issues, sicknesses or otherwise.

But after reading your experiences, it proves that we don't really know the supernatural/spiritual world that well, it certainly seems to move by its own set of rules that we fully can't begin to comprehend.

Cheers, I'll have a read of that Topaz.

Time, time, time, not enough of it.

(*_*)

[at] Valkricry,
Thanks for your assistance
And Thanks for reviewing all the comments in the post 😊 😊 😊 ❤ ❤ ❤

Thanks everyone for your lovely posts and kind wishes for my family. ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

This was good story. And please tell more about the story ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ 😆 ❤ ❤ ❤

Ken, This article is interesting. Maybe you'll find it worth a read.

Hope you solve your paranormal issues.

Dasher, Sorry, that comment and link was meant to go to Ken on his story. I clicked the wrong one.

Ken, I found this article interesting. Maybe you'll find it worth a read.

Do you think you were depressed Ken when your partner was out? Maybe you were feeling down until your partner got home and maybe that's why it only happened when you were alone.
As Tweed said, *Maybe the house needed a fair few parties, lots of good music, laughter to really work that energy/mood into a positive one.*
Thanks for sharing and welcome.

Sorry to hear you were made redundant from your UK Sales Manager position Dasher.

The old man sounds like he was paranormal of sorts. It would be interesting to know where he came from and where he went.

Chin up lad.

Bengali9899, Green sauce and sandy food is deal breaker in my eyes. More importantly people going mental or being found dead? I'd be avoiding this neighbourhood. Sounds like a lot went on there. You and your wife are out of there and can look back knowing you made the right decision to move. Thanks for sharing and welcome,

Hi guys thanks for the warm welcome!

[at] amon I didn't actually ask anyone directly about previous experiences. It was only my 2nd shift and wasn't sure how some would react but I will ask as time goes on.

[at] ladyglow yes it did appear off and a bit strange when it happened but it only really registered the next day

[at] Tweed that is a very good quote and something I totally agree with

[at] rajine yes it isa bit scary and a little disconcerting as I have had experiences in the past but never seen a full figure but the spirit himself was not scary at all

[at] raseco I am not sure it was anyone from my family as I got a good look at his face and did not recognise him

iam just asking thuis whole matter or experience happened because they dindt follwed griha pravesh rituals
🙄

Tweed, I'm wondering the same thing. Also, what language is it? 😜

Thanks Biblio, a quick search online seems like it's not available in Aussie. I'll ask the vet though. I think there's an arthritis cat supplement called Paws here.

Finding McCubbin's connection to Box Hill was a real trip. I always imagined his paintings to be of the hazy start of a day. Except for the last panel of The Pioneer, which I imagined to be afternoon. No idea why!
