hello everyone, I've done this on every forum I go on and thought I'd do this on this one: have you ever encountered the paranormal? as in ghosts, spirits, maybe even something that seems inhuman? maybe you have nobody to hear out what you experienced and you don't know what in the name of the goddess is going on? well, that is where this thread and I come in, I created this thread as a safe haven for those who have experienced the paranormal/supernatural and are ignored or laughed at because of it, here is a place where like minded people can share what they experienced and be heard out by a paranormal investigator who will try to either give alternative real world explanations for what you experienced or if none can be thought of, try to help you understand it. Remember, knowledge is power and with power comes control and through that you can be able to understand what you are experiencing and get your life under control again
 
Ghost don't scare me. I have a Silph Scope.

:thumb: good to hear, I am not scared either or I wouldn't be in the paranormal investigation field, it is our tech guy who is the residential scaredy cat and he sticks to the tech command center, takes a lot to freak me out, the most scared I have ever been on a case was when our tech guy got impaled in the foot by a steak knife thrown by an unseen force
 
I haven't really "encountered" the paranormal before, but I have heard the TV in my living room turn on in the middle of the night before while everyone else is asleep. Same thing has happened with kitchen lights before. But I wasn't scared at that time because I always attributed it to a technial fault >_>

yeah it is quite common for this thing to happen and not be paranormal, a common explanation is that someone next door has a remote that works with your TV, and those things have quite a range, and someone is just fiddlin' with the remote and turns on the TV next door by accident, I remember one case the team and I did to help a family who was experiencing some weird things one of which being a TV in the kid's playroom would do the same thing you are describing, we didn't see it turn on but after the investigation we asked the neighbor if we could borrow the remote for an experiment and we tried to turn on the TV from within the range it would need and we were able to turn it on,
 
I opened a booster pack once that had a Gangar in it......... :p

Nah- I have experianced some strange stuff before.

I don't scare easy, nor do I fear the strange for I am strange.

When a chair scoots away from a table by itself- yes, creepy. Explainable- yes. There is a spirit who is needing to rest because it failed to scare me after hours of attempts.

LOL, it is good that you don't scare easily, anyway about the chair, I would recommend putting a level on the floor and seeing if the floor is at an angle or not, sometimes if the foundation is off kilter it can cause floors to slant and objects to move down the slant, if so, it is not paranormal. if this is not the case you have witnessed a phenomena known as "Object Manipulation" commonly found in intelligent hauntings, which means the spirit can interact with the environment and even communicate, normally activity like this is a way of an entity trying to get people's attention when trying to communicate
 
My old house was haunted. It was built in the late 80's on a native american burial site, before that law was passed in the 90's disallowing construction on those plots of land. I used to see ghosts all the time in my room.
 
My Mum brought back some food once, and put it in the fridge. When I went to make something, it was gone. I asked my Mum, and she even got the reciept out to show that she had bought it. We just thought she'd left it in the trolley, and left it at that. But she was sure that she'd put it back in the fridge. Me, my brother and my Mum must have looked in the fridge at least 10 times, taken every out etc and no sign. Later that night, I went to get a drink, and right in the middle of the fridge was the food. I thought they were playing a joke on me, but they just smiled and didn't quite believe me at first. When they saw it it in fridge, we all got pretty spooked out. That's a poltergiest, the ones which tend to play tricks on you.

I was also staying at a cottage on holiday, and it seemed kind of creepy, but I didn't really think about it. Later that night I sat down on the sofa watching the TV, and just chilling. I went to pick up my drink, and it moved right away from my hand about 3 inches. I left the drink, turned the TV off, and went to bed. I was creeped out for the rest of the holiday, and never put my drink on there again.

Pretty weird stuff, I guess you could say the 2nd story might have been my eyes playing tricks, but I'm 95% sure it was a ghost. The 1st story I am 100% sure was a ghost. No other explanation, and considering we each looked in the fridge like 10 times, if you're telling me that after 30 looks we missed it in the middle of the fridge, then that's just impossible. We can all agree, neither of us played any tricks.
 
Not that I'm a paranormal expert or anything.....but DCF there is such a thing (dont ask me what's called) where when you're looking for something really hard, extremly entent on finding it, your mind will be so focused that it'll actually block it out.

Ever been frantically looking for that last DCE for your deck? Your friend comes over picks up the top 50 cards that you've just been through 5 times and hands you the DCE after only 5 seconds.

It's just extremely rare for this to happen to 3 people simultaniously.

what kinds of activity were there? those kinds of scenarios are pretty common and are notorious for activity, I am kind of relieved that that law was passedor else the US would've had a sudden spike in restless spirits and native american spirits are NOT easy to take care of with conventional methods (catholic house blessings and similar methods) in my work as an investigator I have come to deeply respect the native americans knowledge of spirits and such

the food disappearing that is pretty interesting, mind you I LOVE debunking evidence, at least 85% of activity I believe can be debunked but that one leaves me scratching my head, how old was this property? any reported deaths? I have my doubts it was a poltergeist that kind of activity is a LOT crazier as in pots and pans flying everywhere, doors opening and slamming shut, sounds of loud knocking on the walls the list tends to go on and on. as for your experience in the cottage that I can provide a potential alternative, you said you were feeling creeped out in the place? one alternative to that is that you were suffering from exposure to EMFs or ElectroMagnetic Fields, we are all sensitive to them in some way or another and given the right amount and exposure time to them you can have feelings of being creeped out, hallucinations (Might explain you seeing that drink move a few inches) essentially what you have there was most likely in my opinion an exposure to energy fields

did NOT understand you on that one

I just saw ghosts floating around my room. One was a Native American, and there was a girl that was dressed in quite old garments, don't know what decade though. There was also a rocking baby basket. My mom used to hear the tv turn on and off, as well as doors open and close. The lights would turn on and off as well. I also did a lot of sleepwalking during this time.

I understand what you're saying, but the first few times I looked, I wasn't terribly bothered about it. It was only when my Mum was sure that she'd put it in the fridge that we emptied it out a few times that we were actually bothered about finding it.

I must admit, I've never done the DCE thing myself.

Considering there were three of us, and we each looked in there a good amount of times, I'm absolutely sure it was a ghost of some sort.

I'm not exactly sure how old it is, but it's reasonably recent, but not really new if you get what I mean. I don't think there have been any odd deaths(murders etc), maybe some natural though.

Unlike the first story, I can't be 100% sure on the second. I'd say I more likely did see the cup move, but I can't be sure.

That's a fair point - although my Grandad who was also saying in the cottage at the time said it did feel a bit creepy as well after the first night we'd stayed there. This was before I told him about the cup btw.

To be honest, I know a lot of people think ghosts etc are a load of rubbish, and I bet a lot of them are faked too (or are something else that they don't realise), but with the millions of different evidence out there, it's pretty much proven that there are such thing as ghosts.

Another 'dissapearing act' which happened to my me when I was about 10 is kind of similar to the food. I'd bought a Yu-gi-oh tin, and you got the rare card and some boosters. I remember putting the cards back in the tin, until we got home. Just as we were leaving the car park, I realised the rare card had gone. I asked my Mum to check if I'd dropped it, but there was no sign of it when we returned. The car was pretty much empty, but me and my Mum checked every pocket just to make sure a few times. I used to clean my Mums car for pocket money back then, so it eventually came time to do it. I opened the car door, and right on show was that card. I remember being so shocked at the time, and my Mum too.

quite a list of activity I would LOVE to investigate there, Full Body apparitions man, you have seen the holy grail of paranormal investigation! however some of the activity can be explained away, for example the TV turning on and off as I said in an earlier post TV remotes can reach a fair distance so possibly someone next door has a remote that can work with your TV and it accidentally turned on your TV. On the subject of the door opening and closing was it when people walked by? did other doors close when one was closed/opened? I doubt your sleepwalking is anything paranormal unless you can provide a few more details on that

Can't tell if trolling or just...

with all due respect, trolling was NEVER my intention, I don't even know HOW to troll, I am just examining each claim posted with the same manner I do on a paranormal investigation, getting the details such as how old the house is, history of house/land if any is known, details of the activity to see if there is any way it could be house related and stuff of that nature, I AM NOT SAYING THAT IS WHAT IT IS mainly because I haven't investigated said place I just want to help people understand or help them see what they experienced in a different light, be it not being scared of ghosts OR knowing it is just flaws in the house
 
I have never had, or heard of any experience that couldn't somehow be logically explained.

For example, my cousin used to live on this farm and one night he woke up and saw a large, transparent, first nations man holding him down and a first nations woman sitting in the chair in the corner of his room, which was a case of sleep paralysis. (Where you are awake but having a nightmare.)

My personal opinion is that we are more likely to see a real Gengar than a real ghost.

Skepticism is a good trait for an investigator to have, like I said earlier, at least 85-95% of alleged activity can be explained, if you go in trying to PROVE a haunting ANYTHING can seem like evidence but if go in to disprove, you can root out the things that are explainable and are left with the unexplainable, a much more efficient way of doing things

I have no intention of flaming or sounding like a troll here but you have the wrong definition of sleep paralysis, you DID describe it properly, and I know what you are describing (I have it ALL THE TIME, not a fun experience) but what it truly is is that when we go to sleep, our bodies go into a state of paralysis that keeps us from thrashing about in the night and hurting ourselves in the process, and sometimes we awake while our bodies are still in that physical state and sometimes our minds play tricks on us causing what you describe as having a nightmare while awake, commonly for me I see hooded black figures with fiendish looking daggers that seemed to have a ritualistic purpose
