Is your house haunted

[Panamark]

For me ?

Too much to tell !

Freakiest, watching the pointer go crazy on a
Ouija board, then everybody taking their hands
off, only to watch the pointer continue to move
around on the board on its own accord..

Heard my name called in empty houses...

I could write a CAT sized post..

Seen enough to be open minded.
I know theres at least another energy dimension
beyond our own.

Whether its powerful remnants of individual's personalities,
recorded on time, *or* actual continuing individual entities,
Im not sure.

I do know they can fuck with our dimension, physically.

WoW, I did write a doozie there, didn't I?

I can go on and on forever with this topic, maybe i should write a book on my experiences.
Hell, I already typed chapter one above, lmmfao.

Pana, Auija boards and i don't get along at all.
Wanna see me leave a friends house immediately?

Just break one of those out and i'm tailights, baby!

Those boards are a portal to hell, and i don't fuck with them.

[Panamark]

CAT,

If theres a bustle in your hedgerow.
Dont be alarmed now !

i grew up in a old house that my parents fixed up when my mom inherited it. my great aunt died in the living room and my great great grandfather died in the basement. around my mid-teens i started having this terrifying nightmares and i wondered if i was being haunted. then i learned that they were only hypnogogic hallucinations resulting from awareness during sleep paralysis.

i loved that penn & teller bullshit episode on the ouija boards, when those people were talking on the upside down board. the ideomotor effect, heh heh

there is an association call ''the sceptic'' and they offer i think 10 000 000$ to who ever proves them scientificly that u.f.o. or ghost really exist. This group of people are around for over 10 years now and so far nothing...

so I think the correct term for haunted should be tormhaunted.

There should be a "Sceptic" association about that "God" subject too...
Whoever can prove that he is; the creator, responsible for all goodness yet, non-responsible for the bads...
Wins the prize!!!

I agree about Ouija boards, Cat. That's why I'll never have one in my house, even if it's in the closet in a box.

Nice to have guardian angels to watch over ya (whoever they once were).

Damn Terry....I would not exactly wanna be tripping when there was paranormal activity around....however the purpose of tripping, man, is to get off....and so having something like that happen musta REALLY been a trip....

It did turn out to be a weird trip. Not really a bummer, but just plain odd. That house just had peculiar vibes. Relatives still live there, and I visit maybe once a year. The really strange part is that the house has been suject to extensive redecorating both inside and out, but it still has that aura about it.

My grandmother has a ghost in her house. Sometimes she comes home and all the plants are turned over sitting upside down. Also, occassionally she will hear loud noises, and go into her kitchen to find the ice tray thrown out of the refrigerator all over the ground. Something would of had to open the refrigerator and get out the ice and throw it on the floor.

Also, she has seen it. It is a woman. It floated into her room one night. Mimi (my grandmother) said she smelled a horrible odor, it got really cold, and this thing woman floated into her room. She said she closed her eyes and said, "Leave me alone please." When she opened her eyes it was gone.

(Oh...she lives alone and has no pets....so it couldn't of been that)

Yeah, but they are too skeptical. Ive seen photos and films that
could be either fake or real. (In my mind)
The skeptic society will always claim it to be fake.
That is neither open minded or scientifical.

Its as bad as the lunatics that believe every ghost pic is real,
but they (The Skeptic Society) are the opposite.
They are the extremists at the other end of the scale.

You have to keep an open mind about everything in this world.

[Panamark]

You need to read their terms and conditions for that money too by way. It really is a farce.

My grandparents and my mom and aunts used to live in a house that had some weird things happen back in the 60's-70's.

They had a bar in the basement with those heavy metal barstools with the thick cushions. They weighed about 50 lbs. Those things would sometimes tip over when nobody was downstairs.

Then there was time that a family friend was babysitting my aunts. It was late in the evening and she could hear footsteps upstairs and the creaking of a door. She went upstairs to see if one of the kids was awake...all of my aunts were fast asleep. She freaked out and called her husband, if I remember correctly.

Then there was the time my aunt was sleeping, and could feel somebody trying to pull at her legs as if trying to pull her off the bed. She resisted, and woke up, and saw nobody there.

Another time, my other aunt saw some red mist in the dark while she was in her bed, like hovering around in the room.

My grandma was the most spooked out of them all. She woke up in a cold sweat once, she told us, and all she would look at was the door knob on the closet in her room. Then there was the fact that there was an attic entrance in my aunt's rooms, a little door. My grandma moved a heavy dresser in the way, because she had creepy vibes about it.

Just a strange house. They moved out when I was a few years old.

When I was in college I worked at a funeral home. I worked evenings and would mostly usher the families of the deceist during viewings and was a general gopher for the funeral directors. One of my duties was to lock the place up at night. If any caskets were open, I would have to close them.

It was creepy at first but after awhile, you get used to it. I never saw anything scary.

I certainly learned how fragile the body is. We had some excellent embalmers and makeup artists who could rebuild half a blown away head to where it looked like nothing had happened. Embalming a corpse is an involved, unpleasant process. It's a good thing most people don't know what we do to their dead grandmother or favorite uncle in the embalming room.

All I can say is great care and expertise are used to make the dead person look their best for the last time their loved ones and friends are going to see them.

The funeral business is an emotional business. You deal with the families, you deal with death and all it's unpleasantness up close and personal.

I do believe there is another dimension. One time I was closing a casket on a man who died from drowning in a lake. He was horrible and pastey looking when he came in. By the time he came out of embalming and makup, he looked like he would just get up out of that casket and walk away. They used a darker tint of embalming fluid and managed to restore the mans natural suntan back a bit. All I know is he looked good instead of the scary wreak that was picked up and I'm sure that helped his family cope with the tragedy better. Well, while I'm tucking in the casket liner and pulling the lid closed, I could sense someone was standing right next to me and I swear it was the spirit of the man who was in the casket. He was looking at his dead body. I didn't feel anything scary or evil. I kind of think he liked what we did with him, at least I hope so.

All I know is we should treat the dead with respect. I don't know about haunted houses and all this other crazy stuff we hear. I am a strong believer in people go on after their body dies and rapidly starts to decay and decompose.

very cool post, nitro.
that must have been an amazing experience.

perhaps 99% of spirits are not visible?

like i said i've never SEEN anything spooky.

me and my last girlfriend used to visit cemetaries late at night.
not for any weird or evil reason, just for the experience.

i CAN tell you that i believe you don't find ghosts in cemetaries.
they are much more likely to hang around places they enjoyed
in the physical realm. i know i would.






and what of the 'near death experience'?
thousands of people of different countries and cultures report the same thing.

the moment of death:
seeing their own body, no pain or discomfort, and reporting events and conversations
they could not possibly have seen or heard as they lay there clinically dead.

i'd say that in itself is fairly strong proof of an afterlife.

[DeadOrAlive]

God I love these stories haha... Keep them coming!

[EdwardVanHalen1]

awesome story nitro

[EdwardVanHalen1]

does anyone else have ghost stories there really interesting

I'd buy it dude, these stories are fascinating!

[Nitro Express]

Cemetaries can be interesting places. I remember walking through the old Idaho City cemetary. Idaho City was a huge gold rush town in the 1860's. Like all ghost towns, they boomed and went bust after the gold ran out. A good part of the cemetary is overgrown and has huge pine trees in it. It's like you are in the middle of a natural forrest but then you run into these nice marble headstones and some of them have iron fences around them. You can tell there was a lot of money in the area at the time because of the elaborate grave sites.

Never was spooked at all and I was the only one there. Maybe if I started thinking about spooky things I could have really scared myself but I was more interested in the history of the area, and you can learn a lot about people and the era from the headstones and the burial sites.

So yeah, I would agree, cemetaries really aren't that spooky really. Most the people buried there didn't have much life experience there. Yeah, I think more of the spooky stuff happens in houses for some reason.

[EdwardVanHalen1]

theres not to many hauntings in cemeteries

I once had a strange experience, but nothing dramatic.

I was sitting watching TV, up set about something one night. As I looked down at a pen, it flew off the table, making a parabolic arc as it did so. The windows were open, but I noticed no stiff wind capable of lifting the metal pen.

I'm not sure whether I believe in ghosts an all that nor do I generally believe that people have kinetic mental powers, but who knows. It did freaked me out a bit at the time though.

Maybe you used telekinesis without realising it....

Telekinesis and mind seduction can have great advantages...if I could do it and if I knew it was real....

back in 1994 my friend moved into this old two story log house up the hill from me here in w.va.. the house used to be a civil war hospital. and across the field from it was a plantation. we was all up there shortly after he moved in partying. later that night I decided to stay there even though I only live a two minute walk from my house cause I was ripped and a lot of shit can happen when your that ripped and staggering in the dark. anyway we crashed out in an upstairs room that a soldier was shot in. I was sleeping on the couch and suddenly I awoke in a cold sweat. the door to that room creaked open and I knew for a fact that noone else was there in the house. in walked this dude in an old cival war uniform but different from the ones I've seen. my buddy had some camoflauge pants and other stuff on a rocking chair in the room. he picked up the camo pants and looked at them. when he did the chair moved back and forth! I could clearly see through this soldier 'cause a light was on down the hall. my buddy jumped straight up on his bed when he was awoken by a blood curdling scream. it was me. when the light came on the spirit was gone. my buddy had a lot of weird shit happen to him while he lived there. like the shower curtain flying open by itself when he was in the bathroom. stuff coming up missing then appearing back somewhere that he knew he had looked. he said he seen shadows out of the corner of his eye all the time. the place is still for rent but noone stays there for more than a couple of months at a time.

I've actually read a little parapsychology on the subject. Most scientists say your brain isn't capable of producing the energy required to physically move objects, much less projecting that energy from your cranium...

But there are still things we can't explain....things that science can't even explain...

[Jerry Falwell]

I grew up in a house that had a ton of 'spiritual' activity. My parents bought our house from an Indian witch-doctor (didn't know it at the time) and we had issues all of the time. When I was 5, I remember my closet door opening and an object sat on my bed and touched me. When it did, I felt a tingle run up my spine and I started druling all over myself. My parents heard me moaning and the entity left the room as soon as they came in.
Also, we used to see the woman who we bought the house from in one of the rooms repeatedly. She always looked really pissed off, but never physically touched us (to our knowledge). Her son sent us a picture of her one year and asked if we had had any encounters with her. This was completely random and we had never met him before. My mom sent him a letter back explaining that we saw her all of the time. He then sent us a copy of her death announcement. She had died a year or so before we started seeing her.
One time, one of my moms friends walked up to the front door and knocked. We weren't home, but an old woman opened the door and never said a word. Our friend said when she saw our "grandma" that it startled her and all of her hair stood on end. She felt so uncomfortable that she turned around and left. The next day, she came by again and told us that she didn't know that our "grandma" was visiting. My parents were perplexed and then put 2 and 2 together. They showed our friend the picture of the former owner, and she said "yeah, that was her". After telling her the whole story, the friend has never been back to the house. Freaked her out too much.

Spent a lot of time drinking at the old cemetaries in Charleston, SC... never saw anything unusual there. Actually, it was quite peaceful and a great place to get together with friends. NOt that I condone such activity anymore .
