Ghost stories comments: Page 3

If that painting is still around, send it to me in Missouri, so I can observe it.

Hi, I know it's been a long time since any activity on this post. I really enjoyed your experiences at the LEC. Both times were very creepy it seemed! You gave so much detail that I literally pictured myself in your shoes during the entire read!

The parts about the office chair was absolutely freaky! The fact that you heard it on the immediate other side of the fallen lockers but upon further investigation didn't see anything, coupled with the fact that you then heard it all the way in another room and actually seen it there knocked over was just... Honestly I really don't have any words to describe that but CRAZY. I can only imagine what you were thinking at the time.

Then when you saw the folding chair sitting there upon leaving! Man!

But despite those particular events that were outright scary, the part that intrigued me the most was that mysterious rattling sound you heard while upstairs. Hearing it slowly approach you and then got louder as it was right up on you but suddenly stopped as you were about to leave... Yet no one in sight.

I usually don't jump to conclusions but the fact that neither of you heard any footsteps or saw any signs of anyone lurking around strongly suggest of paranormal activity. If there were vagrants there messing around with you, you would've DEFINITELY at least heard footsteps.

That's some pretty freaky stuff.

lwgrn4real66,
No, we don't have a forum or chat. Sometimes someone will ask something on their own page (Comment section of one of their own stories) to keep from hijacking a thread.

Sorry... Thus is just a question, but is there any place on this site to chat together about things without it being in an "experience" comment section?

Auturo,
Thanks for reading and commenting. It was a truly beautiful house.

Instead of living in fear and your children being scared most of the time, why don't you do a cleansing or get someone like a priest in the religion you followed to bless the place?

Do you by any chance have a roommate? And if so has the roommate or anyone else in your dorm experienced this as well?

CanUseeit: Thank you, very much, for reading my account, & for your comments. I appreciate the encouragement. I appreciate the air-hug, too.
Yes! Everything that happened on that particular excursion were, indeed, the warning signs that Bill was a mistake. A monumental mistake, but live, & learn. Sometimes it takes getting the stuffing knocked out of us to get our attention. Thus turning us around for the better. Thank you so much for reading!

The Very Best to You! 😆 😁

Hello Chantelle - Glad to hear your son is in remission, all the best

It is quite funny, and yes, the spirits were being helpful! Having said that, I probably would have freaked out too with the chairs being pulled up like that.:)

Now that you mentioned it lwgrn4real66, there was this one time I actually decided to investigate something else. There was also this distinct metal clanking that happens every night. No one knows exactly who or why this kept happening but me and my friend decided to poke around and look for things. So perhaps I should keep any sort of creepy incident to my self and cease from looking from looking into it too much TwT

MrW.: I agree! It could've been a prank. Not to mention, others told you stories, & possibly planted the idea in your mind of a ghost.
Always try to 'find' a rational causation before assuming something to be paranormal. Just a little advice, but it's a good read nonetheless!

Good Luck! 😊 😊

Sorry for your loss. 😟 I saw my dad's doppelganger one night while staying at his house that night. In less than one year, he died. Strange about your uncle... What you saw.

Sounds like your dad was letting you know everything would be fine and he's at peace.

Last thing, if you're doing seances, that probably wasn't your aunt. 😕

Oh, doing seances will draw more entities or possibly some things a lot worse! Stop the seances unless you want to end up tormented forever or be possessed, or both! 😁 I'm just sayin'!

I have to agree with RCRuskin. I don't think it'd be a coworker. At least not a nice one! Sounds like something more.

Hopefully just a dorm "prank". Even though some schools and colleges are haunted. In colleges, seems likely to be be more haunted in the theaters than the dorms though. Best thing, ignore it! Don't "look for it" or you'll probably find it!

If your son is seeing all these demons and skinwalkers, I think it's more than "bad vibes"! But what, I wish I could tell you.

The daughter, could be a demon or really evil spirit causing those types of dreams. My suggestion, move if you can. If it follows you again, you'll need a demonologist to try to get rid of the stuff.

If you saw your aunt, hopefully it was her and not a doppelganger. I'd think more it is your aunt checking up on you. Protecting you. No one REALLY knows what or who is out there! Be careful.

Good thing you moved! Hopefully nothing followed you to your new home. I'm sure if it did,you'd know by now. If nothing seems to have followed you... Great!😁 😁

You seem pretty brave! If something were stomping behind me, running after me as I'm running, that water bottle WOULD NOT have been picked up by me on the way by!

I would have just had to go thirsty all night! I've had a lot of crazy experiences, but nothing ever chased me. Believe me, the ones I had, I just took them as they came. But getting chased...!

Couldn't have been good. Might not be the boy. Some haunt not meaning to scare you but the spirit is trying to let you know what happened to them and possibly where their body is.

Also, could be a soul collector staying around that area collecting souls as the people are killed.

I would like to think more the boy. You know what really happened and I don't mean you can't tell people about your experience, but unless you really want to "dig into it", when I go to that area again, or even in your house since it happened outside your door basically, I wouldn't be looking for something else to happen. I think, if you look for something enough, you'll find it. And it may not be good. Ignore it. Unless you want to face it! Take care. If you need us, we're here! 😁

Heya guys, it's been like, 3 years since I've last visited this website but I'm here to try and answer some of the replies that were on my story.

So first of all, no I'm no longer studying in SK Pajar Sejingkat anymore. I was in Highschool when I first posted this story. Currently I'm studying un Unimas, a local university, and I've got a lot of ghost stories to share from there if you guys are interested

There was this comment from Jubilee saying "From what I remember, a surau is an assembly building for Islamic studies or prayers. It is rather surprising that those boys were allowed to play "haunted games" at a place of religious learning." We were at the surau yes but the surau itself is just a small space for Muslim students like us to pray and do other Islamic activities. SK Pajar Sejingkat is not a religious school, it's just your typical Malaysian elementary school. The Surau is mainly for Muslims. Also the incident happened in classroom premises that happened to be just in front of the Surau. Just needed to clear that up

And there's questions from Lady-Glow, I'm going to try and answer certain questions here just to clarify some things

So first off, it happened during class hours but at the time I believe the class where the incident did occured had no active teacher at the time. Think it was because most of the teachers on that day were pretty occupied with something else. We were just as surprised as well but I do believe that some teachers from other classes did came I just forgot to mention it.

Second, I'm not exactly sure what game they were playing. All I know is that it requires the participants of the game to cut their fingers and drip blood on a single coin. At least that's what I heard from the school authorities at the time.

Third, I think at the time of writing this story, I was referring to the students getting posessed. Sometime after the incident, multiple people, students and teachers were acting in a state of histeria, wailing non stop and acting crazy with some even harming others. They were different students basically acting erratic at times so it's pretty hard to tell if they're pretending or not. I just assumed it was real because it was all mentioned during the special assembly when they were warning us about these games.

Forth, there has been rumours about other incidents happening before, mostly cause people kept saying that the school is haunted. I can't really confirm it tho since most of these are mainly just rumours.

And lastly, again I'm no longer a student there. Even at the time when I was posting this story back 3 years ago

I hope these are enough for those asking the question, thanks again for all the lovely comments over the past few years, I wish I was around to check them out <3

Very well written indeed! Hope Richard has found peace and moved on 😊

🤔 That's really weird. I have also had experiences like that. Maybe it was one of your coworkers, or it really was your work grandma or the baby you lost due to SIDS.

Perhaps she's still around the place that was close to her heart, she must have been really attached to that place and the people there.

🤔

So your former coworker is one who plays pranks? They can be good and fun, like knocking a wreath down. They can also be mean and destructive, like throwing a child proof gate across the room. Now, I wasn't there myself, so I don't know what kind of force the gate was thrown with, so maybe it isn't as bad as I think. But I'm not certain that the ghost in the daycare center is your coworker.

Plagiarism or trying to get people's attention on a forgotten story?

Fineandmellow, good observation.

Rajine,

So many things happened there. I can only count on what I truly experienced. But my niece told me so mm e of her experiences before I ever told her I had any, and few were very similar. Similar enough to believe her about some of her experiences, if not all. What I experienced, very few "seemed" to be related possibly to each other. That's why it was so crazy! You'll definitely need to see my next experiences I'm going to write. Maybe tomorrow. Not sure. I just fell down some bug rocks when walking down the dam at Lake Texoma dam to fish. I got pretty cut up and bruised up but my leg is killing me so I'll probably go get it checked out tomorrow. So depends on that when I get to do my next writing. It's some of the last things I experienced there.

CantumSEEit74 and Rajine. Thank you both for y'alls input and read! My next experience I'm going to publish has a lot more about more crazy crap at the camper inside and out.

CantunSEEit74, I've only seen one (1) shadow figure at the lake I'm at now. It was behind me. I heard twigs snapping about 25 feet behind me. I looked...nothing! I heard it again, I saw a full shadow literally all on the ground, of a person running away from where I heard the twigs snappng, behind my garage. I was at the corner of the rear of my house and rear of my garage which were next to each other. About 12 feet 12 feet apart. I saw this run the length. Of my garage and disappear. There was no lighting for a shadow to even be there. But the swirling ones where I used to live...wow! The camper only had a small window above the shower and I had it covered with cardboard but it'd still happen. If you never saw "your shadows" again, it stopped for a reason. You'd KNOW if it was explainable or not. I'm sure you were seeing something. Alot of these things don't make sense. I know you know!

Tiktokangel: I agree with Rajine that is a horrific account involving that murder, & quite sad also.
It sounds like more than a residual haunting though if you were being chased. It's like there's more to the story than what you've been told. Sometimes ignorance is bliss. You escaped, & are unharmed. Shaken, but unharmed. I hope you do not reside there anymore, but if you do learn anything new we'd like to read a post about it on here. This was a scary account, but I hope you're doing alright!

Best Regards! 😊 😊

I am always fascinated by toilet related paranormal stories because I've had one myself... But umm, this exact story has already been published on this site in 2021 - pretty much word for word. Same goes for another one of your stories, about the drain. Did you maybe forget you already posted them under another username a couple years back? 😁

Hey I can assure you that what you are experiencing is in fact a spirit or spirits trying to communicate with you. Don't worry there is nothing to be afraid of. Have you tried talking to them? I think you would be very surprised at the reaction you received as I have been communicating with the spirits in my house for years now and I would class them as friends. After all everyone needs company and I'm sure they would appreciate it. If you have any questions feel free to ask.
Joe.

Rajine
Just as Valkricry said. But I will do it in the comment section when there is related or if there are questions about them 😉

Valkricry
No worries 😊
I have been here long enough to obey the rules 😁 just tap me on my shoulder if I am going too far

Thank you so much. In 1995 I was 6 years old I can close my eyes and relive the accident and to the point where I can feel it still too. I was told that my dad had died and quite honestly I remember hating God for taking my dad away from us. I was angry for many years with him.

Rajine, the problem with Blosomes posting about the incidents he's heard about, is we would not be able to publish stories of that sort. They do not meet the 'real personal ghost story' requirement. However, if he wants to mention them in comments he can.

Oh yes I do agree, it reminds me of that show a haunting. Now that is full on evil. 😜

Wow I sure am thankful most of my visitations were 6 seconds or less your many voices visitations can mentally drain a person. Glad your off that property.
I had shadows driving me crazy, strait in front of my recliner is front door landing, a pillar separating sitting front room and the Livingroom opening so it's almost a 4 ft opening as soon as you come in front door a 5 ft long big skylight is in ceiling above front door opening sheet rocked 5 ft up to the roof. I had to dismiss all the shadows at this pillar even full moon nights a bird could throw shadows on wall flying buy but we both would say did you see that. We could only see doorknob from our seats I thought spirits were constantly coming in by the shadows moving by.
To the right of my recliner is main living room around 22+ ft to fireplace set in the corner and 10 ft wall with 2 windows and a glass door. The fireplace is angled in corner with glass front, and I would be watching Tv and yorkie next to me, I would catch movement out of the corner of my eye and look to see nothing. This went on for months and one night it seemed over 7 times I snapped my head sideways like something was doing jumping jacks just out of view trying to get my attention, drapes are closed and white. I am very mad now and had enough. I tell myself I am going to open my eyes as wide as I can and hope I see the little shiat that finally got my goat in the corner of my eye, I see movement and I open my eyes like never before and NOTHING, I slowly look over there NOTHING. From that day I have seen no shadows nothing at front door and no jumping jack next to fireplace wall. Was my mind playing tricks on me, I thought maybe I had an oddity in my right eye corner. All I know is since opening my eyes extra wide I have seen no shadows and it's been over 2 years now. Hope you did not bring any shadows to your new home. Good Luck out there.

Things like that are bound to happen when you live over a place that once held so much of death.

The place that you lived at seems to be a very haunted place, with so many incidents happening, perhaps the history of the area will be able to shed some light on those incidents.

Maybe you can post some of incidents you've heard about sometime, I'd love to read about them, I'm sure a lot of people would.

Rajine
Well just like the famous forest of death "Aokihara Jukai" there are lots of unknown cases too and lots of urban legends.

Hey, Tweed, it's good to hear from you again. I enjoy your stories, & your comments.
I agree with the others that it appears to be rather benign, but do show respect to it. Let it know you're taking care of the place the best that you can, & hope they approve.
If you have no problem living with it. Fine. However, if it were me, I'd, politely, ask it to move on to be with those that love them. Go to a place where they can be happy forever. However, you handle it is, of course, your personal business, but I just thought I'd throw this out for you. It was an enjoyable read!

Take Care! ❤ 😁

Jessica,
People always have acquaintances, that call themselves "friends". But please don't take this wrong, but no matter where a person is, where they come from, no matter how much money they have or don't have, what they own or don't own, any person is extremely lucky to find a "true" friend for life. Not just talking about husband and wife.

I still haven't found that. But this isn't about me. Seems when times get rough and you really need a friend to help you, no matter physical or mental, or relationship venting, or whatever, the so called friends are the one's usually ALAYWAYS, EVERY TIME, too busy to help you when you're at your worst.

Just call a friend a couple different times to do something physical or mental to help you like clean something or whatever, and the one who shows up could be or turn into that "true" friend.

And return the favors when they really need you. Everyone does get busy, but NOT every time you need them. Of course, that works both ways. I'm sure you know already.

I'm sure I'm not telling you anything that you don't already know.

Just be careful who you trust for anything. But don't let that control your life. To find true friend (s), you'll have to take chances. There will be ups and downs. Just be careful.

And your gift, if they don't understand, it's because they've never had an experience like you've had.

If they call you "crazy", or make fun of you, and definitely not willing to try to understand your side of your experience (s), ditch 'em!

Whenever you help, or give someone something, never expect anything in return from them. But when and if you need them for anything, and they're ALWAYS BUSY EVERY TIME, it will hurt, but that's the only way to know who's just using you or who's really a true friend. Good luck in all you do! It's all about chances. Just be careful of the ones you take.

And you're not crazy. We, the people people on this site, know you're not. Your gift, I've heard a lot of people say it's not a gift, it's a curse. If you wish to pursue it, use it only for the good and you'll be fine.

If you find evil, stay away from it. Don't "look" for it. As always, if you ever need your "family" on this site, we're always here for you!

Hey, just another of my. 00001 cents worth of lip! Lol 😁

That really is mind baffling, but from what I've read, it seems like there's a few guardian spirits there, definitely seems like whatever entities they are, were trying to divert the divers attention to those teenagers.

I wonder what were those kids doing in the first place to end up in such a situation...

Valkricry
Thanks! That is completely fine!
Made my life easier LOL

Troll, begone! *bops shannonmike for spamming* Sorry, blosomes, I deleted your remark too. Not because anything was wrong with it, but because it no longer made sense with the troll vanquished.

Rajine
Well not related to my experience but one of my friends says that his friend owns a marine shop and every September or October they will dive in Shikotsuko to find unknown bodies for the local police. One day, the team found a pair of shoes and a metal cane at the side of the lake. They immediately know that there must be a suicide.
They quickly dived in hopefully to safe the person... They did not see any dead bodies or not even a person.
Several hours later they found a car by the side of an abandoned car park of an old hotel, there were several youngsters beaten and injured, all hopelessly unconscious. They quickly call the police. And that was really the end of the story.
But, there were a few after talks, one of the diver said he saw grey hands pointing at one direction while diving, the other diver said he saw several grey hands doing a stop sign. Were the "hands"trying to stop them from a crime scene but at the same time wanted them to help those youngsters? And the most important, who do those shoes and the cane really belong to?

me and a friend (and his sister) I met way later after the incident had a similar experience with a "easter bunny" that was practically completely black/no color, was 6-7ft in height despite being hunched over (looked like 10ft as a kid), holding a easter basket and was completely still. He saw it with his sister down the hall, looked at its chest never the eyes/face. For me it was in my living room and I n ever looked at its face, only its chest. As a kid I tried to rationalize if it was real or not by looking at things that could possibly emitt a shadow, and nothing could have. No cars, no random lights just the moon lighting up the living room with the shadowy easter bunny thing there. I know it wasn't a dream, as I went to my parents room to make sure they were both there and they were. I didn't wake them up but crawled into their bed. Never seen it again, but it wasn't a quick glance thing. I looked at its chest for 15-20 seconds before hyping myself up to move past the living room and into my parents.

Blosomes if that place could speak, I wonder what scary and harrowing stories it would say 🤦‍♂️

Rajine
That's because Shikotsuko itself is a lake full of histories and accidents. The nature there is beautiful but under those soil there hides unknown bodies of lost travelers. 😨

Linjahaha,

I read your story and have heard before about the floating thing yall did. SPOOKY! And yeah, after my niece moved from my sister's, she never liked coming back to visit! She would be touched alot, swore there was a demon inside the house and two outside!? She did tell me some things that she had experienced there before I even told her things I had experienced there.

And a few were similar so I believed her about those experiences she'd had there. Can't be for sure about her other experiences though. I Don believe she was making any of the other up though. She swore there was a portal in the kitchen.

Hi Loki101

It's so sad and heartbreaking when someone feels compelled to take their own life, only God knows what would drive someone to do that.

I believe that your aunt is still around watching over everyone, I do hope she's found peace in the afterlife.

Losing someone is something you never get over, I'm sorry for your loss, your dad is guiding you and your family.

Thx both of you foe y'alls input and reading. I'll check out the Slumber Party and yes to both of you, I've heard nothing good about the boards! I don't know where the title came from for my story,Lil, but I named it "What could it have been? " lol! Oh well... Thx Linjahaha and Rajine 😁 😁

That's such a tragic story, I don't think that boys sound is at peace, recently the neighbors across the road from my brother, stabbed a guy to death with a screw driver (those neighbors are drug addicts and are terrible human beings) and ever since exactly at 12am all the dogs in the area start howling and it stops at 12:05am every night, I've experienced this personally whenever I went to stay over at my brother's house, I believe that when a life is taken in that tragic manner, the soul doesn't move on.

As for the neighbors (3 brothers vagrant, hooligan type guys), they are on the run, the people from the community went and burnt and broke their house down while they were still in it, they literally had to run for their lives, the guy they killed was well known in the area he used to hang out with said neighbors, he lent them a Bluetooth speaker and when he asked for it back they killed him.

You're welcome blosomes

May I as why Shikotsuko has a lot of ghostly activity? Did something specific happen there?
Usually the ghosts and other entities like to play after dark 😅

Welcome to YGS. Speaking just for myself, reading stories about people's lives being tragically cut short is not something I enjoy specifically... Especially not when it happens on the way to what should be a joyous occasion. Your experience does raise one question I have: at what age do we understand what death actually is?

Thanks for sharing your experiences.

Rajine
Thanks man!
You really make my day 😉
More information for our trip to Shikotsuko, Shikotsuko was a place full of ghost stories 😐 it is full of nature during day time but a little scary during the night... 😳 but nothing really happened to us otherwise I will have another story posted here.

Hi again blosomes

I and I'm sure many will agree that posting your story was the right thing to do, always look forward to you sharing your experiences.

I read somewhere else about mediums that know when someone is about to die because they see them headless, so it seems like it is a 'common' occurrence for people with physic abilities. I am sorry for your loss.

Hey it was such a bone chilling incident 😳
I just want to ask you can I use your story in my youtube video?

Rajine
I believe so too.
I felt really sad that I wondered if posting this story here is a right thing to do... But I really wanted just to share that with you all.

Goodness, what an experience!
Welcome Martyani, you handled this really well considering the bizarreness of it. Bit of a gruesome thought but I wondered if the man had died of hanging, might explain the injuries on his neck and the bloodshot eyes. Wish I had an explanation of why spirits show themselves like this to people. Can only imagine this individual was getting off on scaring people, either that or he's deranged, stuck in some horrible time he experienced while alive. Wonder if anyone else has ever seen him. Seems like he couldn't get into your home too. No doubt a good thing.

Thanks for sharing.

martyani: Welcome to YGS. That greeting being said, I would like to ask if that was the ONLY time that happened to you? Now that you're grown, did you research, or learn anything about the property, or the house you were living in at the time?
This may be an isolated incident, or like Rajine's comment, a passing spirit. Let us know if you learn anything new. Good read!

The Very Best! 😁 😁

Hi blosomes

I suppose the owner of the Honda cub is still trying to reach his destination even after all this time.

Well that's unfortunate, sorry for your loss, seems like whatever you experienced before the incident was a sign, but what do you think could have brought it on?

Have you seen this head again, or was it just a one time haunting? Maybe it could be a passing spirit, or a resident one depending on how often you encountered it.

Hi there! I have a spooky podcast and would love to share your ghost story on an episode. Let me know if that would be okay! Thanks so much and again, great storytelling!

Thanks for sharing and I am sorry to hear about your dad not being well. All the best.

hey, I just saw this story. I ghost investigate haunted restaurants and bars. I am on instagram the same user as what I have on here. Id love to hear where this burger king is and come and visit. Born and raised in vegas. I also saw my first ghost multiple times at bonnie springs when I was really young. Loved your bonnie springs story. Message me any time

Hi lwgrn4real66!

You have always helped me and appreciate your help very much! 😊

I don't know if this whole thing is something I should explore further or leave it just how they are maybe it will either leave or just grow stronger. But as people previously stated, I may be under teenage hormones or I need to get a doctor's check up and confirm if I'm okay.

Well about me being schizophrenic, I'd like to think that my friends aren't really friends. Or maybe they think I lost my mind. After the time they declared me schizophrenic, I kind of stopped talking about this and my personal life with them because real friends support each other. Not show them down.

And this whole thing revealed that people who act nice towards me aren't always going to be your friends. So I do thank this whole ability.

I consider this ability a gift and a curse too. Knowing that there is evil around me even at my favourite park just hits a different nerve... But as long as I act like I don't know anything, I guess there is no harm.

But thank you for your replies and reading all of this trying to help me in someway. I really really appreciate it.

Same thing I grew up in duncannon Pa. On the mountains. By the susquehanna river too. And yes I was like 6,7,8 playing in the woods I was the only one that would hear the drums. Uses to freak me out. I'd run back up to the house. Is was an echo like sound. As I'm much older now 40. Lots if Indian grounds around here. And yes duncannon is right on the susquehanna River. So I lived on pine hill road, the tip top house. So they had to of lived all threw these woods. I live in Carlisle pa now down the mountain and they are still finding Indian children bodies right beside my road I live on now. Spring road Carlisle pa. The old Indian school it was called I believe. They are even uprooting the children's bodies and sending them to families they are finding their families as well
Sad, creepy all in one.

lwgrn, Friendly advice here. Tell your niece to completely avoid those boards. Those things can, & have caused problems to many.
Like I said. Friendly advice. Read my account on the Slumber Party.
Maybe that will give you a little insight into what I'm telling you now!

All the Best! 😊 😊

[at] Rajine

Thanks for the welcome.

My family in Durban has the black ash crosses on their doors as well. These ones look like an oil of some kind... Olive oil, maybe? I know people use that as well.

Am familiar with ancestors and ancestral rituals. Will share some when I have time.

Ancestors don't normally play tricks like moving things around or dropping objects on the floor. Instead, with them, you will find yourself experiencing bad luck, nightmares and illnesses etc. But, yes, when they realize it's new tenants they tend to bounce. They have no qualms with strangers.

I feel it's dark magic because, like I said to Lost Voyage, people are constantly moving out because of how uneasy the complex makes them feel. Besides my apartment (thanks to the sliding door that takes up most of the wall), most apartments are dark and cold despite having huge windows and receiving a lot of sun. We were planning to move as well. The new place we found was lovely, just doesn't have wifi 😁. I'll put up with ghosts for a good wifi connection.

I was still relatively new to the complex when I posted, so now that I've been here a bit longer and have had more time to chat with other neighbour's, there's a general consensus that whatever is happening is not a normal haunting, but something dark.
It also seems to cause more trouble to the tenants who spot it.

I honestly don't know why it's there or what it's for. Others believe it's for money rituals. Other neighbour's point fingers and say it's a specific family doing all of this. They claim the family is using their last born son; by turning him into this thing at night to torment other neighbours. Apparently their children (ones between 4-10yrs) have at some point or another, waken up in the middle of the night shouting this boy's name and yelling at him to leave them alone. I don't want to get involved in gossip, so will just try the cleansing ritual until I can move.

I now believe the guy who stayed in my apartment was only trying to protect himself from this, not that he was into black magic himself. Poor guy was probably just misunderstood.

Ps. Sorry, I know this is long enough and probably going nowhere slowly, but I have realized a lot of people rely on "muthi" here in Jhb. Most of it isn't always for good.

Sorry for the late reply. Things have been hectic my side.

[at] The_Lost_Voyage_11

Oh wow, thanks for the share. Am definitely going to try this one as activity around our place/street hasn't ceased. Since the last time I posted, three families have moved out of their apartments. The elderly lady who stayed next door to me only lasted a month.

She once told me that she had gone out at night to throw her garbage out and froze halfway to the bins. Said she felt the hairs on her neck stand and the skin on the back of her head felt like it was being pulled towards her neck. She never saw anything more than felt something.

Rook seems like he knows his stuff. Can't wait to read his experiences. Will update after I've done the cleansing.

Thanks for the share.

Sorry for only replying now.

Just to clarify, it wasn't MY grandmother. I went on vacation with my maternal grandmother.

The 'person' who draped the blanket over me was a spirit which gave grandmother vibes.

Hope that makes sense.

Sure, go ahead. Share the link when you're done.

Linjahaha, sorry I took so long in replying. Life got in the way. I sort of knew about gold been discovered in the region where I was working that week and was told by the old locals when I was a kid about some hidden gold mine up in the mountains. I took it as local myth and never thought about it until I did some research. I knew what I was looking for but was surprised about the unsolved murder attached, and then seeing the old feller's ghost on a bike and his wee Mini Foxy (I recognised the breed as my best friend has one). I had a fellow TC who did the same shift, and saw the same old fellow on the bike, so I wasn't imagining things. Wonder what else is hidden in them hills?

It's hard to speculate on what you experienced that day, unless if ghost trees are a thing 🤔

Ouija boards are dicey because one really does not know what they are letting in, even if every experience wasn't necessarily tied to the usage of the ouija board.

Hey Jessica,
I may not be much help, but the people on this site are really good at helping others experiencing things like this.

I do not believe that you are experiencing ANY TYPE of schizophrenia. If you read up on that topic, less than 1% of people ever get that disease.

And if you were schizophrenic, which you're most likely not, your energy level would bottom out.

You seem to be energetic and make all kinds of sense. I'd definitely rule out schizophrenia. You have a gift, just like the other people on this site said to you.

Now, I've experienced a lot if crazy, crazy things. Been touched, seen a lot of stuff, heard a lot of voices, bumped into something that wasn't there, etc.

I haven't researched on any of it. So I'm no help there but by your energy level, but your experiences you're sharing with us, and your correspondence back to everyone...you're NO schizophrenic. Unfortunately I can't help you on understanding any of what you're experiencing, but the people on this site which have already commented on your experience are really good at helping in the parts I'm nit.

I just tell my experiences. I don't research any of it. I guess I'm a cluck cluck chicken! On that part. I've experienced some wild things and I'm not sure I want to go there!

But, your gift, you'll learn exactly what it is and sounds like you're learning to control it, more than you know! Just be careful and learn if that's where you want to take it.

It could be a good thing. Sorry for my. 00000001 cent worth of input! Lol. YOU'LL BE FINE AND YOU'RE NOT SCHIZING! 😁

Thanks for sharing your story! It sounds like you had quite an eerie experience. It's fascinating how our encounters with the supernatural can leave a lasting impact on us. Have you had any other paranormal encounters since then?

When my grandfather died, we kept his ashes for a while because he wanted his ashes thrown in the ocean and we didn't leave near it so my mother combined the trip with school vacations. Weird things happened while we had his ashes, Like the tv or the radio will turn on by themselves, my sister says one time she was walking by the room where we had the ashes and she heard music from the 1940's playing, she was really spooked. The worst was seeing a shadow from time to time. We were never scared, but I think my grandad was making sure we don't forget because everything stopped as soon as we fulfilled his wishes. 😊

Hi Jessica2k67

I can't imagine what you would have encountered had you went followed the crying, and yes luckily your brother was there with you.

Hi, Slyverio! I'd love to share your story on my podcast if that is okay? I found it very creepy.:)

Hi Rajine!

I have read your stories about the woman's shriek in the woods, your mum's personal experiences and what happened to you and your cousin. It sounds terrifying.

I always believed too that screams and cries in odd hours are weird and its usually an evil spirit. That night by the alleyway a baby crying was definitely not a good thing. But as a person who loves babies had a thought for a split second "Should I go check?" before I froze. I wonder sometimes if my brother wasn't there, would I have gone inside eventually after that? Thankfully he was there.

Ai sure does help a lot and its been giving me emotional support on this situation.

Thank you so much for replying!

Hi The_Lost_Voyage_11!

Thanks for sticking up with me on this. Surely I am getting a check up in the next 3 weeks. If everything comes right and I'm perfectly fit... Well things take a huge turn I guess.

But yes, I have been handling it quite well. I usually ignore the energy and everything, The last thing I need, is for the energy to figure I sense them, and I'm very sure I don't want to move on this quick with the ability (I still don't know if they are actually something)

I just need time to figure things out and see what I can do and I might need guidance of everyone here.

Thank you for your replies!

Hi Valkricry!

Thank you for giving a different opinion on everything and I may need to think health wise on everything too. I told my brother just a few hours ago about everything. From Gavin to the weird feelings and zoning out. He seems to understand but he also thinks its either stress or I have some '6th sense' (He's younger than me and he's 12).

I even found out we have a doctors appointment which happens twice every year for us. Its a health check up, where they probably check everything. The appointment is in 3 weeks so I can handle that.

But thank you for understanding and giving a different view on this!

Only your mom will know what she experienced, but from what I've read, that ball of light did not seem harmful, a guide perhaps?, or some benevolent being guiding her along her way...

Hi Jessica2k67

I've had a few similar experiences fairly recently where I heard a baby crying especially at night, I've posted my experiences on here regarding the same.

My mum and I were actually having a conversation about the same thing just the other day, where I am from hearing children/babies crying is usually a bad spirit intent on luring unsuspecting people who will want to go and help, but will end up getting more than they bargained for, it's not just babies but even but not limited to, a woman's crying and screaming, especially at odd hours of the night.

I wouldn't be so quick to rule out the AI, modern technology has been beneficial and helped out tremendously in supernatural encounters and trying to communicate with supernatural entities.

Hi jessica2k67, you are doing a great job of researching and asking the right questions. You also seem very present to these gifts and are already learning to use them better!

With grounding, you can also learn to set some energetic boundaries as well. You are right, this newly emerging ability without any clear boundaries can reach out and sense and interact with other energies. You have gained some control so you don't fully 'zone out' as you put it, and you can learn to sense these energies first before you decide to interact and explore them, so you don't have to try so hard to reign them in every time.

The signs for being a medium and psychic are just as you read them. It is hard for a rational, logical mind to cope with what you're going through, we're raised to believe in what we can see and experience more directly, in scientific terms, what can be measured. So it takes some adjustment, have grace and patience with yourself. Logic is a tool used for only a small portion of reality. This is new territory for you, but you're not alone.

Val brought up a good point, I should have mentioned. A visit to the Dr, just to check on your physical health may not be a bad idea, to put your mind at ease at the very least. I don't believe you have anything mentally to worry about, you seem very aware and present. I just wouldn't mention the energy stuff to them, just stick to any physical symptoms and a check up. Good Luck!

Jessica,
Have you talked to any adults about what you're going through? A trusted relative, teacher, clergy member - you know the drill. I know that can be difficult, but a question that had to be asked. Has any adult (especially parent) witnessed you 'zoning' out?
In my opinion, no one but a qualified therapist can hang a label on you, and then only AFTER doing an intake. Even being 'professionals' they can misdiagnose, so your friend's opinion on you being crazy/Schizophrenic is just that an opinion. And in all probability wrong.
As a teen (and forever after) you'll be going through changes. Most of it is just growing pains. Some caused by hormones, some by underlying illness; a vitamin imbalance, blood sugar levels, STRESS. The thing is you want to rule out any physical reason that maybe causing these changes. Perhaps pay a visit to your doctor.
But, judging by what you've told us I don't see anything over alarming. You're just walking a different path than your friends, so you can't expect them to understand. You might try https://www.psychic-experiences.com/, our sister site. They might be able to offer you more insight.

Hi The_Lost_Voyage_11!

Thank you for reading everything and understanding the situation!

Now that I read your thoughts about maybe Gavin was preparing me for this and somehow letting me know I will be fine, it makes sense.

I don't know what to call my zoning out. I thought maybe I just know that there is somewhere there standing over there and looking. Or maybe I just let my body connect with the energy making me and people around me think I'm zoning out.

I will definitely follow your advice on grounding and explore these abilities. It just feels weird to sense and feel a lot and it is overwhelming. Knowing that I'm either actually gaining an ability which Gavin sort of prepared me for, or I'm actually losing my mind.

That is why I researched a lot. 'What are the signs I'm becoming a medium or sense spirits?' Most of the signs which I find exactly matches how I feel. Its terrifying for me. Its like my brain doesn't want me to be believe I'm sensing things.
Finally I thought putting all my experiences somewhere where people could understand me and I really thank all of you for it! I'm very grateful.

Thank you for taking your time and telling me your thoughts on this!

Hi Tweed!

Thank you so much for understanding this whole point of view. You are definitely right that me zoning out is dangerous and can cause loads of problems. I have been handling it. Whenever I sense something or I just get a gut feeling that "Something is here/off about this area" I've been avoiding zoning out by engage myself in conversations with people around me. And if there is no one with me, close my eyes and just call someone who I know would pick up or just sing/lip sing music.

But then there are energies and feelings which is extremely hard to avoid. I can't help but find myself zoning out and stare where I feel energy. It's like I need to give it my attention.

Being a teenager, with parents who don't really, believe in ghosts or anything paranormal, its hard for me to explain it. My brother did mention them that I zone out sometimes and all, they think I'm under some stress with school or in my own fantasy world. But I will try and talk to a doctor excluding the words ghost and paranormal as per your suggestions.

I do not know whether me being a Empath or Psychic medium is even possible. Sure, I believed in all of it, and was very curious and watched a tons of horror movies. But I never once thought that I would be able to connect or feel something.

Thank you for taking your time and writing me down. I appreciate it!

Hello again jessica2k67!

As I suspected based on your last account and comments, it sounds like you're going through a spiritual awakening and gifts and abilities you've probably always had are coming into prominence. Being a teen can especially be trying because of all the energy and shifts you are going through. I believe Gavin was a spiritual guide, someone to assist you in this awakening especially with the advice he gave you and to let you know you are not alone.

We all have a team of guides on this journey of life, whether we believe it or not, some make themselves known when needed as Gavin did in your case, others sit more silently on the sidelines until we need their help. Your guides will most likely be making themselves more known to you.

I don't believe you have schizophrenia. Of course I'm no medical doctor either, but what you describe can be found in so many forums and community discussions, it's more normal than you'd think.

If I were to venture a guess, I'd say it sounds like you're able to slip between timelines or reality as it were. Time is not linear and reality isn't fixed. The veils between those 'worlds' as it were are thinning. You're not really zoning out as it were, but energetically shifting. You proved this in your account when you were able to shift back by changing your gaze/focus. You have a lot of energy as a teen and from the time frame you've described, it seems your gifts are rapidly blossoming. I believe Gavin was trying to prepare you for this.

You can intuit information it seems, especially on an energetic level. I don't want to offer unsolicited advice, but since you asked for our take on this, you may check into grounding work. When you ground, and stay grounded, you can further explore these abilities without losing your way as it were. It will help keep you anchored into life/earth and give you more ability to sense these energies and read them without being overwhelmed. Grounding is simple and easy to do. There are many ways to do it, so pick the ones that speak to you. As I mentioned, there are groups and forums that discuss these types of things and post articles about them. I would of course advise due diligence in researching and participating, be safe out there!

You seem to be acclimating to these new abilities very quickly and getting a handle on them, I will be very curious to hear about your new experiences! Curiosity is key for you, stay curious on the adventure and good luck!

Hi Lost Voyage

Oh yes, SLIders. Street Light Interference phenomenon. There have been members on YGS who described the ability. They said they also had problems with batteries draining and disrupting electrical equipment, like a computer mouse and TV going flat, and the self-checkout at the supermarket malfunctioning.

Interesting point about portals drawing energy. I wonder if that could apply to the cold spots I had felt about the hospital. Especially when the place was kept at a constant temperature, with no drafts from vents or open windows.

There have been a number of thought-provoking ideas about the lady in black. It's likely that I saw her in passing, and she wasn't someone who meant any harm. Hope I didn't put that nurse off too much from the night shift.

Thanks for coming by to read my account.

Burtchik, this was such a lovely read thank you for sharing! I've heard people describe seeing intelligent lights in forests on the TV, usually when speaking of alien related topics. It's so fascinating. My grandmother, mother and aunt and uncles saw a 'fire ball' as they describe it in the country. That was in the 1960's in Australia. The 'fire ball' they encountered was apparently very loud. The one your mum describes and people on TV have been silent.

I love that you've all visited the location, man if that place could talk! Thanks for sharing such a fascinating piece of your family's history. I don't think anyone has a clue as to what these lights are but they sure are amazing to hear about.

Hi Jessica, thanks for the update. I don't think anyone here will disagree you obviously have a knack for sensing spirits. The zoning out you've been experiencing shouldn't be ignored though. For example if or when you're a driver you really don't want to experience that level of impairment while driving a vehicle, or bike, or as a pedestrian. No one can or should give you medical advice over the internet but I strongly feel it would be in your best interest to speak to a doctor about these episodes when you zone out. It could be the aftermath of shock since it seems to time with after you met Gavin.

As for the paranormal side of things. I'm guessing being in a mediative state of mind in these moments is putting you in touch with the other side. You may be walking into pockets of strong energy around town. Then vividly receiving details about something which occurred at the location. You said it felt like something was touching your ankle. You may have been feeling someone else's experience, or part of it, or there was a spirit entity there with you, touching your ankle. Also it sounds like you could be what's termed an 'empath' and 'psychic medium'. Someone who 'feels' objects, locations and people, and someone who can easily communicate with spirits. Sounds like these abilities are getting stronger by the minute, which would time with your age. Teen years are pretty common for spiritual awakenings.

I really have to circle back to the zoning out, make getting some answers about the that a priority because it has the potential to be extremely dangerous if it's going to occur regularly.

As for talking to a doctor and what to say errr well, I hear animals speak in English sometimes and I'm never telling a doctor that LOL! I guess you could tell a doctor what's been happening but leave the paranormal subject out of it. Like describe what happens but leave the word 'ghost' out of the sentence. That's what I'd do in Australia, loads of skeptics here, but maybe in the Netherlands people are a bit more open to these things. My point is you don't have to tell anyone anything you're not comfortable with but you can still get an understanding and some control over these intense moments when you seem to go into another world so to speak. A lot of empaths describe similar intense moments.

You could also look into 'Empath' and 'Psychic Medium', I'm sure people of both abilities would relate to what you're going through. As I understand these abilities manifest a bit differently in everyone.

Burtchik: This highly interesting account has me scratching my head. I have heard similar stories of ghost lights elsewhere around the Country, & the World. So, this is not the first time I've read of such a thing. However, to have it following, or playing with someone is a new one to me. Obviously, there IS an intelligence associated with it, but 'what' intelligence. Aliens, or ghosts? That is what I'm trying to figure out. I guess some things in this world will continue to remain mysteries. This was an excellent read. Thanks for posting it!

Best Wishes! 😊 😊

Interesting story. It is hard to know what these lights are.

An acquaintance of mine says she and her family were followed by a light on a highway north of Toronto. It then moved beside and then ahead of the car as it "played" with them. It then briefly entered the car and caused quite a panic.

Not trying to be too picky but, if anybody looks for the town on a map, it seems that Arran is just across the western border of Manitoba in Saskatchewan.

Hi The_Lost_Voyage_11,

I've accepted that he was someone who just came into my life and help me out in the slightest way possible.

I am really thankful he did that. There has been a few positive things going on in my life, like not caring what others thought about me and know who is just using me, or don't really care for me. Things have been less toxic.

But they are downsides which, I just posted about. Would really love your thoughts on it.

I would love everyones thoughts and help me understand if the changes in me is something I should worry up.

Thank You!
