Ghost stories comments: Page 4

Hi there,
My opinion, the past aways will visit us if we have always been in their mind.
Indeed there are bonds weak and strong and sometimes very complicated... 😢

I used dream a lot about my grandmother, every dreams about her may seem to have meaning and one day I decided to keep a dream note. Those notes would help me solve lots of problems until today. 😉
Why don't you try to keep a note next time, maybe it will solve some of your existing problems.

Spookygirl yes you can use the story if you like to have a good rest of your day

Whats interesting is that my mom has a similar experience, except with our neighbor who was dying of diabetes. Their house caught on fire like a year prior, so my mom took in our neighbors beloved dog. Our neighbor went to live with her daughter in a different part of town, but she was really struggling with her diabetes by this point.

One night, my mom said she woke up to a woman in an old style dress, with buttons down the front, sitting at the edge of her bed next to the dog. She freaked out a bit on the inside. 3 days later, the neighbor had passed. It was almost as if she came back to check on her dog as she was fading out of life.

Much like your grandmother, she too was seen wearing something from her youth. It's crazy.

Hello, Aeropostale.

Paranormal forces that can travel digitally have always been fascinating. Electric devices often pick up spiritual remnants of things that happened in the past. Maybe it picked up something of that sort?

Hi there!
I might have a similar experience dating back... About 30ish years ago?
Back at those time, the phone connections were poor.
I remember once I phoned my uncle from São Paulo to Rio, I heard lots of fuzzes and whispers of other callers... I know, its old and back then it will happen but not like during 2010's when internet and online services are busy, but in some area, people still uses fax and old phone lines, especially Hotels and other public facilities.

Read "Jeepney Ride" by Matthew page 10. This is the story I have referred you about.

Hi, again, Dev: I, more than, can relate to this particular incident of yours.
I work in a Senior Nursing Facility-I posted an account about it, if you care to read it. One of the residents there was a sweet lady named Ruthie. We got rather close in the first 3 years of my working the [at] front desk. She would come to talk to me every time I was working.
However, she began to decline progressively after a year, & a half. She wound up in skilled nursing for a long time. She passed on on one of my days off. I was so upset I went into the employee restroom to cry.
However, later, a new man moved into her apartment. I had to check on him one night as a part of my regular duties. He wasn't home, but there sitting on the couch smiling [at] me was Ruthie. She looked as robust, & healthy as ever. I was overwhelmed, & burst into tears telling her that I missed her, & was so happy to see her. She gave me a big smile, & raised her hand as if to wave to me.
I think that was her way of saying goodbye, & letting me know it was alright if I wasn't there when she passed on, & that she was perfectly alright now. She faded in front of me.
I believe your friend was giving YOU a last recognition, & goodbye before departing for something much better.
This was a lovely, & touching post you submitted, & you're right. We have to love, & cherish those we care about on a regular basis. Appreciate every moment we have in the present. We'll be much better for doing that in the long run! Very good read!

With Good Wishes! 😁 😁

Hi Dev19

I know what you mean, just yesterday I found out that a good friend of mine passed away from an overdose off meds, he was suffering from constant headaches and swelling in his head, he even went for an MRI, but the doctors didn't or couldn't detect anything, I'm still in shock, it's such a tragic thing to happen, we were best friends and I keep recalling our last conversation, he seemed happy, his usual self, he was an amazing person, I'm not sure if it was accidental or not I can't wrap my head around never being able to see and talk to him ever again.

I suppose you seeing his spirit was his way of saying goodbye, life is fleeting and we should always keep the people we care about close to us and communicate with them regularly.

I love your story, Dev19. It's really well written too. I came across it because I'm gathering cemetery ghost stories for a podcast episode. May I share yours? Thank you for considering.:)

Hello, Seekings

Thank you for the kind words and sympathy.

The river is the Padma River, and it's the most culturally, ecologically and spiritually significant river in all of South Asia. I'd say it'd have more than a few spirits attached to it.

I wasn't really in the deep river with my boat, per se. The river island we lived on went under the water seasonally during the monsoon season. The place I was traversing had been dry land a few weeks ago. Even as I was taking my boat through it, you could see tips of shrubbery and bamboo bushes sticking out over water.

During the monsoon, the whole of the island goes under water and the house that I was living in was surrounded by running water from all sides as well. The only reason we didn't have water standing inside the house was because it was raised on stilts.

Our housekeeper was also from the fifty-person village that had been living on the island for a while, though she wasn't welcome there anymore. Because after her husband was gone, some local men kicked her out of her house, took it over and pressured her to leave the village, stating that a young woman without a male partner would be bad for the community. That's why she had nowhere to go back to.

Maybe there's some history to those people. But she didn't know much about that either. She told me they were just homeless people who latched onto new land when it popped up.

Thank you for your opinion. It's given me much to think about.

It is accustomed to Philippine folklore and beliefs that it is a very bad omen when you see someone you know headless. There are several stories from this page also where they saw their families or friends headless. It is usually a sign of an impending doom. I have research ways to counter it. I was able to know that when you dreamt of someone headless you need to put a hat on them as soon as possible to counter the curse. There is one particular story here I forgot the title but the contents of that story is same with yours the only difference is the one who saw someone headless
is the one who died. So that made me realize that seeing someone headless is not just a warning for the one who is headless but also for the one who saw it. BTW, that story is about a girl and a jeepney driver.

Hi Neandarthunder,

Maybe the river which produced this island over many years has a guardian spirit, or an elemental, and the emergence of the island and the subsequent human presence over time triggered a defensive response from it. It's interesting that it seemed to have an actual physical presence when you were in the boat on the river, maybe close to its source of energy. You say that it seemed to be able to influence animals (buffalo, ants and snake incidents) , another reason I'm wondering about it being a type of elemental nature spirit.
It's strange that it seemed not to target your grandparents, the original builders and occupiers of the land, but picked the housekeeper and you instead.
A very interesting account, but very disturbing for you and deeply so for the poor housekeeper!

A bit funny comment... Pls read

It must be like that the nun got perhaps angry just because you hid that cane which she might have used... Every panoramal activity has some connection

Hi Dev, I wondered the same thing as Neandarthunder about what the planets were up to during that day. It's odd that it happened just on that one day. Maybe weird things have always happened there and you and your coworker happened to notice that day.
I love reading stuff like this and hope you're glad of the experience. Definitely out of the norm.
Thanks for sharing.

Hello Rajine.

Thank you for commenting. The Land has been there for the last thirty years or so. Before that, there was water there. It's a river island. It is formed through silt deposit over a long period of time. Our rivers are ever shifting. I can't find any account of there being a land here before there was a river. There might've been, but there's no recorded history of it, so such an idea that it could be laying long dormant cannot be discarded.

My grandfather built the house 2013 because the land was cheap and the ruling party was trying to find a way to pin some stuff on him so he was trying to escape.

As for the entity, it certainly felt like something that was hateful and very set on eroding away someone's sanity. If it was human or fully inhumane, I cannot tell. Sometimes it felt like an animal watching me (the thing on the boat with me) and sometimes it felt like a human trying to say something (the invisible touches).

Thanks for reading, and sharing your opinions. Peace ~❤

You are so welcomed, Cant. Always happy to help out when I can.

Rajine
Other entities 🤔
Perhaps so... But I haven't heard of any strange stories yet, other then the spirits of the soldiers... Yes, maybe there are curses and other spiritual activities 🤔 not sure yet.

That is a creepy enough experience, a few possibilities I think it could be a random passing by spirit, or the land does infant hold more secrets than anyone knows, something must have happened there a long time ago.

This seems more technical than a normal ghostly incident, I wonder what these visions mean...

Hi Neandarthunder

The building may be relatively new but land has been there since forever, so I don't think land can be new in that sense, what I've read seems more like a malevolent entity rather than a random spirit haunting a place.

I've read this a lot, Places that have experienced violence and lots of bloodshed seem to attract evil and otherworldly entities, and considering Bangladeshs bloody history of wars and massacres it's no wonder that there's probably a few malevolent, evil beings lurking about and wreaking havoc.

Hi blosomes

Perhaps it was another spirit, not an IJA soldier, that place seems to have a lot of history and apart from soldiers I would think over the years there's other entities there as well.

Val you went above and beyond, Thank you so much. Xoxoxoxoxo.

Have a look at some of the clothing, head gear and uniforms from the times of Cromwell in your country. There you'll find your "cowboy."

URL for Cant's triangle.

It sounds like for some stretch of time; the grocery store had become some sort of spirit nexus point. It wouldn't hurt to know the date and time of the incident to see if some sort of astrological planetary harmony influenced this. You're lucky nothing particularly evil seemed to have gotten on board.

Hello, Tweed.

Thank you for the kind words. I've had a lot of theories come my way when discussing this with people. One of the more prominent ones has been that the entity/entities attached to me or my grandparents, and somehow saw the housekeeper as a threat. Another was what you mentioned, she might've caught the eye of something bad at her vulnerable moment.

I'd like to call this a poltergeist but one thing I noted was that at some points the entities seemed to have a physical presence. Like the time that thing tipped the chair. That thing that climbed onto my boat moved the boat with its weight. There was some shoving.

But at some points, it was more ethereal. Shadow people. Invisible touches. Nightmares and sleepwalking. Disembodied voices. Intense feelings of paranoia and wrongness.

But then again, it seemed to be able to direct animals to do things. Ants being in only the Housekeeper's food. There were many incidents with snakes and one with a buffalo. I don't want to share them because I was explicitly asked not to.

I think it's worth noting that nothing ever happened to my grandparents. Things happened even in their vicinity, but never to them or to harm them.

I'd like to think her luck's finally picking up since I last saw her, but I have no way of knowing.

No I don't work there anymore so there is a cemetery about a mile down the road I head it reached all the way where the store sits today and they moved the bodies to put in a neighborhood and the store

Cant, I think what may be easiest on you and the wife, is to email me the picture and I'll post a link to it? Valkricry [at] hotmail.com

Val can you send info how or if She can still add the picture. It is nothing without that triangle. SHE will have to try.

Hi Cant, An URL is just a web address. It's displayed in the address bar at the top of a web browser.
Sent pictures do not come to me, but to the webmaster. Like Tweed pointed out, it can be quite the while for pictures to be posted.
But if you're content to wait... 😊

Hi, Dev19: Do you still work there? What could have been there 'before' the grocery store?
I am aware that Arizona has a turbulent history going back to the Pioneer days. It might behoove you to research it if you're really curious. This was a short, but very good read. Thank you for submitting it!

The Best to You! 😁 😁

When I reach the spirit world a grocery store would be a great place to hang out. How many people will never see those spirits.

I know seemed a little complicated we do not want to open an acct on a web site, URL we have no idea what that means. Will have to wait.

Tweed
Thanks for commenting!
Well grey clothing is nothing special but what I saw were grey coat which reminded me of old Japanese soldiers...
That day was a stuffy day which wearing a coat high up the mountain is suicidal 😨 color did not matter in that case.

Hi Can't,

You're not alone in encounters like these. I used to watch a show about this topic and triangle shapes are commonly reported. Same as you there are others who remember being in a sterile location. It's very scary but ultimately nothing bad happens to people. I'd like to think that's a sign of some kind of civilised community checking in on us in a similar way to how we document and research animals in our environment.

On an unrelated note keep hugging trees! I believe they remember us and recognise our appreciation of them.
Not sure if it's still the case but pictures on here sometimes take a long time to get posted. I like to use a photo sharing site to share pictures instantly in the comments etc. Wanted to mention this because sometimes people think their pictures have been rejected but it's never the case, it just takes a while sometimes. I think I know the kind of triangle you mean as I think I've seen it, or something like it, on that UFO show I used to watch. There's also a triangle shaped craft which has been caught on camera, verified footage not someone's hoax. Things are different now compared to the 90's, people are way more open to discuss their experiences with the unknown and that's always a good thing.

Hi Neandarthunder,

Sorry this happened, bad haunts are truly awful. As for why it happened it really sounds like it was attached to your housekeeper and not the area. Unfortunately sometimes when people are going through a rough time and especially when someone feels vulnerable it can attract some really horrible entities. I hope she's doing better with this and her life in general. As for why it was on the boat with you, I just don't know. But my overall feeling about what you shared was that it was either brought in with your housekeeper or her situation lured it. Not her fault, it was no one's fault. I like to think karma takes care of situations like these.

Thanks for sharing, sorry it happened.

Hi blosomes, it's hard to say either way who you saw down there. This reminds me of another encounter on here from, I think it was India, years back. Someone saw someone in an area where visitors don't go wearing clothing that didn't make much sense (don't remember why). This was on or near a bridge in a popular tourist location. Influencers are another reason you might find someone where they shouldn't go. 🙄 Much rather it be a ghost than an influencer any day. Fingers crossed it was a ghost.
Does grey clothing have any significance?

RCRuskin
Non-zero chance... 🤔
Well the hiking area itself when opened connects to the area where the statue and the tomb stones are but where we can see is the area away from the tomb stones... It's hard to explain but there is a museum? Or is it an information center? Which it explains that the incident happened at the area which is very hard to access thous tourist area were not able to be built at that exact area... 🙄 I know kind of confusing and yes it could be anything so it is hard to judge...

Thanks Val we will wait for Webmaster to post picture. I hope you got the picture.

I would say there is a non-zero chance you saw the ghost/echo of one of the soldiers. I would need to look up more about the incident and the park to be able to say more.

I've heard of something like this before. Maybe children require and demand affection even beyond the grave, however terrifying that may be for us.

I don't think that "ghosts" or spirits that were once human would be that vengeful to cause physical harm, I may be corrected, but that's just my view. Perhaps it was something else, something malevolent.

Spirits or ghosts can be happy, sad, angry etc...

The other night I was up late watching weird and creepy things caught on doorbell cameras on YouTube, I can safely add this to my list of creepy doorbell camera incidents, however I'd rather take a chance with a ghost then some of the weird people that I've watched 😅

I must say, it's a very well written incident, cemeteries naturally will have paranormal activity, seems like you and your friends were tempting fate and fate delivered...

Cant - I sent you an email (YGS) about your submission:) Be on the lookout for it.

Allow me to welcome you to YGS, also. This was an interesting account. However, I have always been of the opinion to show the utmost respect when entering a cemetery. I've never accepted any dares to enter one [at] night-time. If I do go to one, I offer my respects aloud, & just inform them that I am there to visit with a loved one, & not to disturb anyone else. Seriously, I do.
If you get the chance, please read 'my' account of what happened to my dear late husband back when he was young-Larry looking for trouble, & finding it. Click on my name, & it'll bring up all the posts I've submitted. It 'may' help you to understand what happened to you, & your friends that night.
I'm not finding fault with you. Please don't misunderstand me. We 'all' have made mistakes. I have made my fair share, I assure you. However, that account may give you a better understanding of how to behave in a cemetery. The spirits are aware of our presence, & they 'know' the reason we come into them. If it's for the wrong reason, they will let you know about it, & it may not be in a way that you'll like.
I'm just giving you some friendly advice gleaned from my many years of experience with paranormal events. I surely hope this helps you in some small way. It was a very good read!

Take Care! ❤ ❤

Rebelmama,

You've come to the right place, no one here will think you're crazy. I think it's really cool that you acknowledge they're both still around you and I'm sure it means to world to them too. ❤

Jubeele, I'll probably always be in two minds about the photos being reflected sun or something more. If it wasn't for a spiritual connection to the place and everything else, the voice, the flying fox, I think I would've dismissed it altogether. In reading peoples experiences on here over the years one big repeated theme is that there are always signs around us from the other side it's only a matter of perspective and there's something really special and comforting in that.

Thanks for the link, the info on that page is really resonating with me. I always warn people not to touch flying foxes if they find one in the wild, because of a strain of rabies they carry in Australia. Never thought I'd have a spiritual connection to them, but maybe a connection has been forged over years warning people not to touch them lol.

I thought the message about the other path was a kind of blessing too. Before I reached the top of the final hill, where the sun was visible, I stopped to finish the water I had. When I stopped there was an intense pink or red light bouncing off everything but I couldn't see the sunset or the sky properly from where I was. Only a few meters ahead did I see the weird/wonderful sunset. Might have missed the full display while I was taking a breather, doh! I'm thankful for whatever it was I saw, it made the sun look black for a couple of seconds then it was gone. Really cool stuff, will never forget it.

Regarding the strobe light effect, where the being flashes in and out of your vision; I have heard of that. It was from a man who could see his Native American girlfriend walking along a river while having a conversation with a Sasquatch person. Of course his girlfriend could clearly see & hear the Sasquatch, but he could only see the Sasquatch in the strobe effect - flashing in and out as you saw your entity. This man felt it had to do with that being's frequency or vibration and his own ability to tap into that vibration. He said his girlfriend was very spiritual, which he felt was the reason she could interact so well with the Sasquatch person.

The glowing red eye thing... That is sometimes seen in Sasquatch, Dogman, other beings, but the theory is these beings may have the ability to see in the infrared light spectrum - and that is why their eyes appear red. Which is why trail cameras don't catch these beings... They can literally see the infrared lights on the trail cams glowing from miles away, and thereby avoid them.

You said you were distraught and having a bad day when the black winged creatures came toward you - be careful of your thoughts. Focus on love and gratitude and keep your vibration high so the lower vibration beings aren't drawn to you.

Hi Tweed,

You've painted such vivid scenes, bringing us right into the heart of your experience. I'm no expert on photography, and I've no idea about that ball of light. I'd have mistaken it for the afternoon sun.

But many cultures believe in protector deities and nature spirits. I feel that the land has its special awareness, a type of 'earth sense' derived from all living things, and once we set up roots in any place, calling it home, we belong to the land. It could be that the land recognises your connection to it, even after all this time.

I had the sense that the intent of the voice to take another path was to give you a blessing. To let you have a glimpse of the aurora, something special to lift your heart.

The flying fox is interesting. I found that the symbolism for it is: "caring for others and creating a sense of community and belonging". Maybe you had a special "welcome home".

This is an amazing and scary visitation. A dead guy is carrying a flashlight that actually is working and throwing light and it's coming at you. And finally standing over you, and one has a knife. I do not think you will ever forget this night. WOW

it looked like a little kid running in front of us the cemetery is in a small town it was I'm the middle of nowhere you could see miles around you there was no place for a big animal to hid thanks for asking

Welcome to YGS.

It seems like you guys were a little worked up with anticipation even before reaching the cemetery.

Years ago I went to a nature park in a city in southern Mexico, there were some local animals roaming freely in the forest and some others in enclosures.
At some point I felt watched and in danger, I turned around and saw no one but the feeling of uneasiness only grew more intense.
I turned around scanning slowly my surroundings and sure enough, there was a full grown jaguar few meters behind me crouched as if ready to pounce on my back!
Fortunately, at least for me, the jaguar was in an enclosure.

My point is, are you sure there was no living being watching you? Perhaps a nocturnal animal?

Can you elaborate more on the "small figure darting across the road in front of the truck."? Was it a human shape?
Did this happen within the cemetery's area or outside it?

I'm sure most graveyards have one, or more, resident ghosts. In the case of children ghosts, perhaps they remain earthbound because they were too young at the moment of their passing as to realize that they should move on, and stay in the cemetery because that's the last place where they saw their loved ones.

Was your experience consistent with the rumours about the hauntings taking place in this cemetery or different people have reported different events?

I hope you don't mind all my questions. Thanks for sharing.

Bienvenid [at] a YGS.

Hola Angel.

That sure was an unnerving and puzzling experience. Personally, I don't think these figures were trying to kill you, though they definitely seemed to have been curious about you.

Do you know if any other family member, specially your abuelito, ever had a paranormal encounter in that house?
In my opinion, since your grandfather's death had been so recent, it's possible that he was still around and the knife and flash light might have been important/symbolic during an event in his life.

I'm glad your dad took you to his room even if he didn't necessarily believed what you saw.

Do you remember if you covered your mouth during the time these events took place? Would it be possible that the marks on your cheek were those of your own fingers?
By this I'm not denying your experience but only trying to think of some possible logical explanation for these marks.

Thanks for sharing.

The Devil's Den is, IMHO, one of the scariest places on the entire Gettysburg battlefield. I've had more than a few unsettling encounters there.

I've felt the "heaviness" you described. It was near the Devil's Den and felt like someone had slung their arm over my shoulder. It only lasted for a few seconds, but seriously gave me the shivers.

I would rather eat a truck load of Kryptonite than walk through a cemetery in the dark. Are you a Ghost Writer, Ha Ha see what I did there. Sorry, anyway seems like you are reading it to me. You are a good writer, storyteller for a young adult. Your wording makes you wise beyond your young adult years. For the hundreds of cemetery visit in the dark gone wrong TV shows 4 basics to follow. Do not stand on top of a grave. No laughing out loud. Touch nothing and Do Not urinate in the cemetery. Walk through a cemetery with your stomach and your heart. Spirits can read your mind. Thanks for sharing.

Kent
Thanks for coming back!
And... Well ZashikiWarashi is a Japanese myth really, original maybe some hidden children when back in the time people are chased to pay tax according to each person in the household.
I have heard lots about stories related to banyan trees too. Some are quite creepy. 🤔

Loved ones that have passed on are always looking out for us, it's something I've believed in since my dad passed away over 2 decades ago, you will get little telltale signs, just their way of letting you know that they are around, watching and guiding you.

I don't think that "ghost" you saw was actually a ghost, I stand to be corrected, but in my entire history of paranormal experiences I haven't seen a red eye ghost, perhaps it was something else, not necessarily a demon, but something otherworldly, malevolent. There are a lot of other evil beings out there.

I also had wondered if my see through black stick figure had something to do with a fire. Something to look for around fire stations.

I need to find a Sashiki-warashi and hope he likes me so I'll be wealthy Blossome.

I have been told by a few people I look like Rick Springfield. I had to google him. Maybe if Sashiki-warashi likes me enough I could request looking like a modern day heart throb like Tom Cruise. (⁠*⁠_⁠*⁠)

All these Banyan tree myths are becoming very commonly told. I have read a couple just recently and that's why yours caught my eye.

It will be interesting to find out what is actually going on. I'll keep an eye out on the comments here to see what others think.

Cheers,
Kent *⁠⁠0⁠/⁠*

I wonder where they got their strength to be outside in the daylight. I had a see-through black stick figure walk through my Livingroom. But mine was almost complete skeleton except no rib bones. Skull and eye sockets, feet and hand bones were there it was all black and see through maybe over 5 ft tall. At one point it was less than 10 ft from me skull looking at me and it turned and headed down my hall back to the mirrored hallway in our bedroom. It did not even care about me it just wanted to get back to the portal mirrors. You should not acknowledge them they may follow you home. Are they loitering in an area of addictions. The face you described sounds like addiction demons, and they attach to you when you pass and torment you in death. Down the road in my neighborhood a truck has the Church of Satan sticker on his bumper, and I disliked walking on that side of the street. Nothing good happens playing with negative energy.

It seems like the small one acknowledged me. I'm not sure it seen me in the car or just seen my car. I have tinted windows. I truly feel they weren't supposed to be seen. Now, if they were spiritual and I was supposed to see them, I'd like to know what it means.

Yes, the smaller one did look at me. I was trying to get a good look. Aliens or spiritual beings I'm not sure. Not sure I was supposed to see them. The taller one was just dark. I saw no face just a dark cloak. And it was a little taller and different. It was standing there stiff and looking forward didn't move. The shorter one next to it had a face and still stationary but it did look. I don't know if it seen me but I've read not to stop so I didn't.

To answer the comments; I have not seen them again since.
After passing them I looked in my rear views and don't recall seeing them behind me. Soon as I got home I told my husband to go look if he sees them. He drove around the block which is not exactly where I saw them, and said he didn't see anything. When I saw them the darkness was thick. It was super dark like a heavy dark. It was as if my headlights were bent down. There's nothing wrong with my lights. Only seen a face on one which was slender smooth (didn't have expression) white with tiny holes for eyes. The closest thing I've seen as a look alike would be Ahriman.

That is very good to know and I will do just that thank you for your feedback. My vibration at the time was at it's peak. I wish you nothing but the best. Have a great night.

Rebelmama: No! You do not sound crazy. You've had spiritual visitations. You see. Spiritual visitations are 'very' close to MY heart.
I wish to express my sincere condolences over your losses. However, they ARE with you in times of sadness, or uncertainty. I believe that.
Allow me to explain. I lost my WONDERFUL husband almost 12 years ago, & I still feel him with me from time to time. I realize he is in a much better place now, but he has visited me during times of great stress, or when I'm so overwhelmed as to what to do in certain circumstances.
He, first visited his sister, about a month after his passing to assure her he was alright, & tell her that he knew how we were feeling. He stayed for several minutes. He told her he loved her, & they talked for a while. Then he announced that he had to leave, but she begged him to stay. He told her that he 'had' to go, but he was alright. After which he left, & she was sitting on the bed with the lights on looking [at] an empty chair. She said she felt such peace, & joy after that visit.
I envied her, & asked 'why' he didn't see me first. She explained that I was so very deeply grieving that those emotions were putting up a barrier so strong that he couldn't penetrate it.
She was in a completely exhausted, & relaxed state [at] the time, although wide awake when it happened.
He came to see me a little over a month after he visited her. I was in bed attempting to sleep, but wide awake. However, I was completely exhausted from all the crying I had done over missing him. I, suddenly, felt his arm slip around my waist, & I heard his voice. He told me "that's right, Sweetie. It's really me!". I jumped up out of bed. He got up behind me. We embraced. I held him, & kissed him, then we sat down on the foot of the bed holding hands all the while. I touched him, & he was just as solid as anyone. We talked for several minutes. He told me he loved me, & that I'll be alright, & he knows how I was feeling, but I'll be alright, & manage. He said he had to leave, but I begged him not to go. He said he had to, but he was better than he'd ever been, & would always love me. I wound up sitting on the end of the bed staring [at] the empty spot he was sitting in with the bedroom lights turned on. This was not a dream. It happened. I felt such peace, & began crying, but they were tears of extreme joy knowing he was there with me, & loved me. He wasn't suffering anymore. He was whole again. He was alright, & he wanted me to know.
I'm crying typing all this, but I wanted to offer you my opinion. It's not cast in stone, but it sounds to me, like you've had spiritual visitations. I, still, feel him with me from time to time.
Now, 'you' can think I'm crazy, but nonetheless, I'm relating what happened with me to you, & offering up my considered opinion.
I hope you didn't mind, & this was a good read!

The Very Best! 😊 😊

Wow there is amazing things out there. Don't forget they may have shown themselves to others that did not see them. One lady on TV in her rear-view mirror saw a carload of young Reptilians but when their car got even with her, they looked like normal kids in Nevada. Maybe you are putting out a high vibration and seeing it all. Never forget to ask for help from your spirit guide and guardian angel. Talk outload give thanks for 3 different things every day, your guides are your protective shield. I give thanks for my hot shower, my wife, my dog my beautiful flowers, my car, my health. Build a love shield around you. Just smile and know your stronger and not alone. Some people may have more than 5 spirits helping them at a certain time and it depends on what they are trying to accomplish. Good luck to you.

This is a very interesting read. Even myself as a reader, I would like to know what they were doing there. Creepy experience indeed. Have you seen them since this occurrence?

Hello all.

Thank you for taking the time to read my experience and taking the time out to comment... Ill respond back below:)

[at] lady-glow: I actually never went back to that same location again but reading these comments I think it should be something I should look into. (thanks for the comment)

[at] Rajine: I haven't thought of it like that... Congratulations you've officially added a new layer of fear on top haha:D (thanks for the comment)

[at] Valkricry: Thanks for posting that article. Very interesting read iv'e learnt a thing or two so thank you (thanks for the comment)

[at] Linjahaha: Even still now I can't fully wrap my head around it, I would often question myself like "did I see what I thought I did", but the way I had reacted and was feared for the remainder of the holiday. (thanks for the comment)

[at] Tweed: Maybe that was the case, it was most definitely an experience, I am grateful for this happening as it had opened up my world to the whole paranormal side of life. (thanks for the comment)

Hi AmandaJF
I spent a lot of time as a child with my relatives in 214 and 216 Locks Road, that was in the 70's. Did you have a tortoiseshell cat called Dundee?

Linjahaha

Very sorry for the late reply. I was involved with some political stuff and went to jail for some time and internet was down and a lot of people died. The point is that we overthrew our government.

Bangladesh doesn't have a history of Cult killings per se, as far as I know. There WAS the custom of burning widows among high caste Hindu families until the early colonial era (1750-1800). Could be something left over from that, maybe?

We found a very large snake skeleton on the north-west side. 16 feet long and wide as my thighs. Undoubtedly a python. That might not be old though. Catfish were farmed in that pond, and they're known to pick corpses clean. We also found portions of a moonboat. We're a bit inland for moonboats, but it's not uncommon to find old boats in ponds here. This place was part of the river not long ago.

Don't apologize for the superstition. It's what I'm here for. I don't need a definitive answer. I want people to tell me what they think. ❤

MichelleS: I am offering my 2cents here for a POSSIBLE explanation. I hope you don't mind.
I have done a lot of paranormal research over the years, & I've had quite a few unusual encounters myself. I have read that sites-such as a property/building-or even items can have attachments from the former owners. If the previous owner had a special attachment to an object that was special to them in life, that attachment does not not delineate after they are gone. Of course, a lot depends on the individual will of the previous owner. Most will pass on to the next level-such as Heaven-I believe in Heaven, personally. Then there are those that refuse to pass over for 1 reason or another. Those are the ones that become ghosts, & stick around either by remaining with a house/building, or, even particular items that feel a strong ownership of.
This explanation is what I've gleaned from my many years of research on this specific subject. I do not consider myself an authority. No way. I am merely offering some possible theories for you to consider. I hope this helps you in some way to, maybe, make some sense of what happened to you.
I'm glad that you weren't hurt, & I hope you're living in a nicer, event-free home. I hope you really didn't mind my 2 cents here!

The Very Best! 😊 😊

In '77 when I was 12, I was in bed. I woken just after 1am. I had my lamp on. My sisters bed was straight in from the door and I was across to the left far end wall of the room. You walked through my brothers room to get to our room. Something drew my attention to the door. I saw it standing there. I was wide awake & can still see it in my mind. A figure in a black hooded robe holding what I then described as a sword with both his hands & right in front of him. I was staring at it while crapping my pants. It would've been in excess of 6' tall but unsure of his full height. I jumped into my sisters bed and still couldn't sleep, so I bravely walked through my brothers bedroom, got the sleeping bag, snuck into my parents room & slept on the floor. The funny thing was, their bedroom always scared me. Lol. I told a friend at school & she said, it was the grim reaper. I had never heard of it before that night.

Lost Voyage, I hadn't even thought of portal but it makes perfect sense. Probably explains all the local sightings of a ghostly woman all those years ago. A portal hadn't occurred to me because I'm so preoccupied with nostalgia when I visit these places. But it's that fascination that makes the connection so strong. There's a give and take of energy when I visit places like the creek which was strong when I was a kid and even stronger, or more refined, now. I've always been sensitive to energy in locations, never put a name to it but I guess it's empath. (I'm great at diagnosing everyone else but not myself lol)

It's like I'm reinforcing old tracks and creating new ones all at once. There's a neighbouring suburb that I'm very drawn to and visit often, both in dreams/astral and physically, this place definitely has high vibrations as well, the same creek runs up through there too.

You've given me another layer of reality to attune with thanks!

Hello Tweed, Interesting story!

I believe that area especially in the vicinity of the playground is a portal and what you picked up on as well caught on film were the beings that guard and use the portal. The area is also used as an entrance for high vibrational energies to come into this world. There are many more in the world, I live near and have encountered one.

My feeling and sense is that as a child you forged a connection with this portal and as such don't even need to be physically there to have an energetic connection. You can astral travel there as you did in your dreams and I'm willing to bet while you're awake as well. You have a higher vibration that is aligned with this portal, even more now than when you were younger. The more time you spend there, the more closely aligned your energy will become.

I feel there's much more to it, but I encourage you to continue to explore this connection and area and more will be made available to you there. These areas can be like giant tuning forks and you can pick up more.

Of course this is what I pick up on, but keep us posted on this place! Thanks for sharing!

Tweed
Thanks and I can tell that you really know well!
I haven't talk about it in front of my friend yet... Well I might just see and will be more alerted on her. Stress hey... I know well how stressful Japanese are now a days... Oh well. 😟

I know a few, but it is actually a coded name for a group of Disney fans.

Hi Tweed--Interesting thought connecting the sound to that speaker thumping many years ago, but I don't think there's a correlation. Whatever the tapping was/is, it seems to have calmed down dramatically. I'm glad it did because I had a weird feeling it wasn't going to.

We haven't moved yet, but I still feel that whatever was making the tapping noises was responding to a tension that had briefly fallen over our house. I do still hear the occasional tapping, but it's much more infrequent and doesn't bother me any longer.

Thanks for your input.

blosomes, I was hesitant to mention a doctors checkup because I know a bit about how some doctors in Japan tend to treat more than listen. But I thought I'd speak up incase you've found a GP who's a good listener. Hope you guys can get to the bottom of this because it's pretty serious to be fainting and pretty scary too. I hope it doesn't happen to her again.

RC the only thing a fire department means to me is an old fire station near where I live. I grew up listening to the old siren going off as a kid and am hearing it all over again now whenever it goes off. It sets off all kinds of nostalgia, it's cool. So unless you've got a connection to a random heritage fire station in Australia I'm clueless. To my knowledge I've never known anyone who worked for the fire department.

Tweed
Hmm... That is so true 🤔
I might want to bring her to a check one day... But you know... It hard here sometimes because of lack of understanding... They still treat everything just giving medicines that's why I hate it 🙄

Tweed, I don't know. Just a gut feeling. But if 'fire department connection' doesn't mean anything to you, then we wouldn't. And I tried to code it a bit but not too much.

blosomes,

I'd urge her to rule out any physical or psychiatric reasons behind this if she isn't already. I used to know someone who suffered fainting and lost time but hers was a psychiatric condition, one that can lay dormant for many years until triggered by stressful events. Also I don't know much about diabetes but that would be something else to rule out as it can cause all kinds of freakish symptoms. Best to rule out the physical before ruling in the paranormal, to be on the safe side.

RC, in the photos I'm facing the sun through the trees. What makes you think we share a connection? Not that it's a bad thing, just curious. 🤔

Hello Tweed,
Thanks for reading my story
And I think I still wouldn't have been working at that place even if he wouldn't have told me anything. It was suffocating to work under such people who were sexist and toxic. You know they used to make fun of me and pass comments about how my parents are incapable of taking care of me because I was working and studying simultaneously and I used to get very upset because I was just a kid who wanted to do everything on her own and help her folks. I used to cry sometimes too but nevermind, some people just need to get a life.

Thanks,
LS

Hi, Tweed. I somehow get a strange feeling you and I share a connection in the past, but the odds of that are quite low, much less than finding a fire department connection, if you know what I mean?

Anyhow, I was wondering about the photos. Were you facing towards the sunset?

Tweed
We met 7years ago and lived together almost the same long time.
I would know her more than she knows about me... I think. 🤔
She said she had been dreaming during the time she fainted the first time, I told her that she acted strange but she could not remember all that. 😳

Hi Manafon, bit late to party on this one, hope it's better now. Read you say in one of the comments you were moving, has it followed you since then?

Guessing you must have thought of this but it reminded me of that banging speaker you guys had troubles with many years ago. Hope it's not connected. Well, if something had followed you from that place you'd surely know by now.
It seems to mean well. Preventing sleep is a bridge too far though. Ghosts be pesky. 🙄

Thanks Rajine and Blosomes, I'd never thought about the flying fox being anything more than a premonition of how the park had changed over the years. But it could be symbolic of something else too. Huh, hadn't thought of that.
I wanted to get a picture of the cartoony bat thing in the playground but it would have looked way weird me standing there pointing my phone at the playground from the other side of the gate. Next time I'll go into the playground area and explain what I'm doing to any near by parents. I really want a picture of the bat decoration. Will post it when I get one.

Rajine, I wondered the same thing and thought it might be an old visitor or inhabitant of the park/creek. Perhaps something that remembers me growing up there. I wondered that because the dream was vivid before I went and it was just an all out spiritually charged afternoon. Which was nice. 😊

Hi blosomes,

How long have you known her? Something like this could be a lot of different things, some paranormal and some not. I think only time will tell and you'll have to spend more time with her. It's very tricky to say but it seems from what you've shared that she has a lot of stress about Kyoto, and what it means to her family, even if she was trying to downplay it.
I think only time will tell what happened to her. Is she talking about it now? Or does she not want to talk about it? If something like that happened to me out of the blue it'd be pretty much all I talked about. But if it had happened before I might be embarrassed and reluctant to open up. Well, that's how I think I'd act if I were her. But I'm not her so maybe I should just shut up lol.

Wow, so sad...
This kind of made me think of one of the ghost stories at the legendary most haunted place of earth, Pluckley Village, England.
I mean not that spooky but it reminds us of the living life of the spirit.

Sending love ❤

Hi Tweed!
First, I thought it was a title scam! "Possible Sprite And A Special Sunset"
Where is the Sprite! (Sorry, just joking)

I believe too that the flying fox that you see maybe something that had been protecting you.
People who claims to have protectors around them will report that there strange forms around them, like shadow person, light beings, flying fireballs, ectoplasma, orbs, etc. Flying fox maybe a form that you will see. (My case, I hear them but I had not seen them)

Hey, what a beautiful sunset be the way. 😊

Rajine
I asked my friend after the trip, she said she knew that she was going to faint when she realizes she said I was right beside her in our room. I kind of also said that she was dreaming of a scenery like in some Samurai Movies they call Jidai-Geki (Time era Drama? Like they will dress in old style and speak in old ways and things). 🤔
I could tell that at that time in the elevator she acted like if she would have a knife or even a sword with her and would draw it out anytime... Luckily she did not even bring her hand bag with her... Or else I might be attacked 😳

Sorry for the incomplete response and typo. What I meant to say is that, guardian angel keeping you safe especially when you need it. In times of possible danger and crisis.

Hi Tweed

I think maybe it was your guardian angel looking out for you, keeping you safe especially when you really needs

Hi blosomes

Does your friend remember this incident? And after she went through that how was her behavior?

If I were to guess, perhaps it was a resident spirit that took over your friend for a few minutes 🤷

Hi AussieRedDog

I agree that not all ghost or spirits are other supernatural beings are all bad, there always has to be a balance between good and bad, and in some cases, like your experience, this still innocent child's life ended before it could even begin, I do hope she eventually is able to move on.

I guess we learn something new on a daily basis, I suppose the more popular image of a cowboy is the "American" version that you find in the movies.
