California - July 17, 2005
Subject: Paranormal Experience -
Location: Somewhere in California - Date: 2001 - Witnesses: 3 - Number
of Objects: In excess of 5 - Objects had lights - Objects had an Aura or
Haze around it - Objects emitted beams of light - Objects changed colors
- Objects became transparent
Event Description:
Every Friday I would go to my friend's house across
the street.
One Friday, I went over, and wandered
about one room I never have seen before. It was a dark, never lit
bedroom/TV room that was downstairs. I wanted to go down, but my friend
and his younger brother told me about these spirits that lived down
there. I, of course, did not believe them, and decided to go down. They
followed behind.
When we were down there, the room was
only lit up by the windows on the walls. It was quite dark. We decided
to sit down and watch TV. We were peaceful for a mere fifteen minutes,
but then something strange happened.
I suddenly started seeing these colored flashes. It changed color from
blue to pink, blue to pink, blue to pink, then it would disappear before
the next one came. They were a "blobby" oval shape. I asked my friends
if they could see the objects, and I'd point the locations they had
been. They said they saw the exact same thing. The objects appeared
everywhere in the room, except for the light. My friends said that the
spirits were completely harmless.
I saw them every time I went to that
room. I got a bit used to them, but I couldn't see them anymore in early
2003. I kind of miss those guys.

Dad went through the wall |

Location: Nowra,
NSW, Australia - Date: 1966
Event Description:
"Dad went through the wall"
Around 1996, my Daughter Leanne was going through a marriage break up and
was living with my wife and me in Nowra, NSW. She had her baby son, Brent,
with her.
One
night, thinking Brent was disturbed and in need of a nappy change, she got
up to go to him.
As
she left her room and started to enter his, she saw what she thought was
me, her Dad, standing in the doorway looking in on Brent.
She
went to place her hands on what she thought was my back, to ask me to move
aside. As she did so, the figure of me did move aside, straight through
the wall disappearing into the room where I was peacefully sleeping.
At
the point where the figure went through the wall, it would had to have
passed either into me or through me, as my head was against the wall,
right at that point.
Was
this “My” spirit walking the house and looking in on Brent before I was
even dead and unbeknown to me? Or, was it some different spirit checking
up on Brent's cries?
Somehow I'm more comforted thinking it was in fact “My” soul walking
around unsupervised. If that is true then at least I know I have one, but
I wish it would “report in” more often! :o)

Event Description:
"Shared Dream
Warning"
Back in 1976 my sister was living in Melbourne and her husband was an
interstate truckie doing the Brisbane route and was away 6 days per
week. She had three sons and a daughter living at home.
One night, she dreamt in vivid detail that she was in a small car with a
group of young boys, only one of whom she recognized clearly and it
stuck in her memory. He was a good friend of her son John.
The car was careening out of control down a steep hill towards a large
group of people and the brakes weren't working. She was frantically
yelling to the people to get out of the way. She woke before the car
plough into them.
Two days later her husband came home from his latest trip. During his
brief stay she told him of the dream because it was still vivid in her
mind.
He looked at her with his mouth open. He told her he too had a vivid
dream on that same night. In it he was in a group of people standing at
the bottom of a steep hill. There was a car coming down the hill out of
control with no brakes. He could see the driver and it was the same boy,
the friend of their son John. He was yelling at the crowd of people to
get out of the way and it was as if they couldn't hear him.
Awed and amazed at their shared dream, they gradually forgot about it
until a fortnight later when my sister was shopping in the shopping
district of a nearby suburb. While there she witnessed a horrible
accident. A small car ran off the road and up onto the sidewalk running
down a group of people and killing a young boy.
The boy killed was the same friend of her son John that she had dreamt
about.
A
few years later her husband Jack died in a truck collision on that same
Brisbane run he had been doing for 23 years. Her son John was killed in
a collision with another car a year after that.

Event
Description:
Well, it was one night about four years
ago. I had gone to sleep rather early, I was exhausted. All of the sudden
something woke me up, I looked at the clock it was 9:00 PM on the dot.
I turned the other way, to see a little boy
standing next to my bed. He was really small, looked to be about four or
five, he was wearing a blue T-shirt and blue jeans. He had really rosy
chicks, big hazel eyes and curly brown hair.
It kind of freaked me out. I covered my
head to see if it would go away, then all of the sudden the phone rang and
he disappeared.
Well, a few weeks later, I was in the
house and my Dad and brother were outside, doing yard work. I was walking
outside to speak with them and I passed the kitchen and there was a little
boy pushing himself up on to the counter. For a second I thought it was my
brother, but I looked away and looked back again and he was gone. I ran
outside completely freaking out and my Dad and brother told me I was just
seeing things.
Then again a couple of weeks later, I
was hearing voices and children playing up in the attic. Well, my brother
and I decided to go up there and see what we could find.
We ended up finding a whole train set up
there, really old baby swing, and a cub scout uniform that said 1949 on
it. There have been rumors, that the whole neighbor hood was built on an
old burial site.
I still see one of those little boys every
now and then, it doesn't really freak me out, I know he is not there to
harm or hurt me in any way. I just want to know why they are there. My
brother and I are the only ones that say we've seen them. *
| The deer head
spun on the wall.... |
Reported By:
Anthony - Sugar Land, Texas - January 16, 2004
Subject: Paranormal Experience -
Location: Franklin, TX - Date: January 15, 2004 - Time: 3:00 AM
Event Description:
On January 15, 2004, I was staying at my
girlfriend's grandmother's house in Franklin, Texas. We were visiting
because her grandmother is terminally ill.
The house is very old
(early 1900s) and very large. Nobody dares to journey upstairs, in fear of
ghosts. I had heard forever that this house was haunted. I just laughed,
and thought they were lying. I decided to go....just to shut them up.
I slept in my girlfriend's uncle's room upstairs. His room is dark
and very, very cold. The bed was soo comfortable, however.
Around
3 AM, I awoke for some strange reason. Nothing spooked me, or touched me.
I just woke up. I got up to go to the bathroom, and that's when I really
freaked.
I came back to find a majority of the dresser drawers
open. I was frightened but never paid attention to see if they were
originally that way. There is a giant deer head over the bed. It began to
spin counter clockwise. I jumped off the bed and looked again. It kept
spinning.
I ran to the door, but the door was literally jammed. It
was opening, but it was as if someone was holding the door. After about 10
seconds, the door opened. I ran downstairs to my girlfriend and her
family.
I told them the story, and told them to come upstairs and
look for themselves. They chose to not. They just laughed. I asked what
was so funny. They just told me, "We told you so." I haven't really ever
talked about it since. *

Premonition of
Grief..... |
Reported By: Jeanette -
Boswell, Pennsylvania - March 4, 2003
Subject: Paranormal
Experience - Location: New Jersey - Date: May 1984 - Time: 11:00 PM, each
Wednesday - Witnesses: 1
Event Description:
The year
May 1984. Each Wednesday night at about 11:00 PM, a loud THUD would come
from my fridge. Any other night of the week nothing would
happen.
At first I thought my fridge was getting ready to go on the
blink. But only on Wednesdays it would thud and always at 11:00 PM. It
happened up until the first week in June
Then, on June 19th my son
was in a head on collision with a car, he was on his motorcycle. My son
was killed instantly, at 11:00 PM, a Wednesday.
On the fridge, I
kept a little magnet ... That of a man on a motorcycle. After a while when
I got over some of my grief, I realized it was a warning of what was going
to happen to my son. I still lived in New Jersey at the
time.

'My House of Horrors - July 9, 2000
My problems
started when I was a child. I have always been different. My parents
went to buy an old house (found out years later it was not old but built
with aged decor). We had moved several times since I was little. I always
looked forward to the adventure. Not this house, there was something about
it I did not like. I refused to enter and was dragged over the threshold
by my parents. On reaching the inside I clung to my father, because I felt
a presence in the house. They bought the house and my hell began.
I
used to awaken to footsteps approaching my bed from the walk in closet and
stop, but no steps returning. I would feel cold areas, goosebumps,
and started to suffer from screaming nightmares. The proof finally
revealed itself one day I went home to lunch. I was the first to
arrive. There was no one home, so I put on some soup in the
kitchen.
I began to hear noises in the basement like someone was
searching for something. I called out my sisters names and no one
answered. I went down the stairs to check. No one was there. I
felt very uneasy and ran upstairs. I heard heavy footsteps on the stairs
coming up from the basement. I got scared and ran to turn off the stove. I
ran upstairs to my room to grab a sweater (bronchitis). I ran out the
front door like the lords of hell were on my tail. I didn't stop
until I reached the sidewalk. I looked back and saw the drapes in my
sister's room pull to the side like someone had parted it to look out
except there was no one standing in front of the window. I took off to
school and made sure I arrived the last person at home that day.
I
have as an adult seen ghosts, been visited by unknown entities, been
sexually attacked by an unseen force, been followed by a malicious
entity. I have visited Psychics to get answers and been told that I
am 'psychic' and a 'receiver', that is why I attract these forces. I
have strong gut feelings (premonitions) and have experienced more than my
fair share of weirdness in my short lifetime.
If you have any
suggestions or advice please let me know. (To save space I have not listed
all of my experiences in detail)*

Ouija Board....... Dead husband speaks. |
Submitted by:
Pattie W. - Panama City, Florida - November 12,
1999 - 1:28 AM
Subject: Unexplained Event - Location: ST. Charles, Missouri -
Time: AM - Date: Summer - Witnesses: 4
Event Description:
It wasn't a sighting, I had been
playing with a Ouija Board before and after my Husband committed suicide.
Before he did, the board said we would not be together at the age he died,
23. After he died, My children were 5 and 6 and I was at my Mothers house
where I was staying after he died, And we put the kids on the board and
told them to ask the board a question.
Because I had been on it
earlier and it said it was my husband and he wanted me to go to the Mormon
Church and Re Marry him in death. They have a ceremony there that will
marry you into eternity. I didn't know about such a ceremony and my Mother
and Father thought the board was just a toy and that I was making it work.
Well, when my two small children asked it if the board, who said it was
their father, they asked if he knew who it was. My son was doing the
asking, the board spelled out "Yes, you are my son and you sure are
getting to be a big boy." After that, I threw the board away!
The
first time I used the board was when my husband was alive and it said many
things I can't fit here. But it would work with just me and it refused to
work without me. The board had told me that it was a bitch that was burned
at the stake for adultery. She had no name and she said my husband was
Satan's Helper. My husband go very angry after she said she wanted him and
he broke the board. Years later, after he died, and when children got on
the board when I asked it who it was and he (the board) said my husband. I
asked him to prove it. My mother said to ask him if my Grandfather was
with him because he died two days after my husband. He said he was and
that they were in an area like a waiting area to go somewhere else. So my
mother asked him to ask my grandfather his name. Since my husband had
never met him because he lived far away when I married and we never had
the chance for him to meet him. He did not know what his name really was
because he used his middle name. So My husband answered!
Yes, his
name is Errett. We were all very shocked and my father thought it was my
mind making it happen till my children got on it. I Believe it made a
believer out of all of us. I Have had many other happenings without the
board. I have seen things happen before they happen and then they happen
and I scared myself so bad, I stopped letting the thoughts happen. I have
had dreams about people dying and then they die. I am so scared to dream
any more. I have a hard time sleeping. I stopped myself from dreaming. I
have not told anyone of these things because I feel stupid or like a
freak, people look at you like you're crazy.
When I was younger I
wouldn't talk about it, now that I'm older, it's even
harder.*

Out Of Body Experience........ |
Out Of Body
Experience - Submitted by: Jan C - West Virginia - Date: 9/18/99 - Time:
6:32 PM EST
Location
of event: West Virginia - Event Date: July 1942 - Time: PM - Type of
event: Out Of Body Experience
Description of the event:
It was the summer of 1942. I had
been in the hospital three weeks recovering from a ruptured appendix.
Mother put me to bed early. I wasn't able to turn over, the pain was more
than a three year old child should endure. The heat in that upstairs
bedroom was oppressive. I called out to her to come upstairs. The room was
dark. I was frightened. She told me to just go to sleep and I would feel
better in the morning. I looked at the high wooden bars on the bed and
cried. Then it occurred to me to just go downstairs. I raised up flat, out
of the bed, soared to the ceiling in a swoosh and began to fall slowly,
back to the bed. I turned over in the air. It felt so good being out of
that hot, uncomfortable bed. As I drifted back toward the bed, I began
moving my arms as if swimming - and to my delight, went back to the
ceiling. I moved forward with a breast stroke, lowered myself to pass
under the transom above the door, carefully floated past the chandelier,
toward the stairway. I was afraid I would fall.
Carefully, and very slowly, I followed the
slanted ceiling to the downstairs hall, and swooshed myself to the living
room. There sat mother and dad. I was afraid that they would see me. I
held my breath, hovered slowly, then with much delight, swam my way back
upstairs to my bed, turned over, and let myself drift back onto the
mattress. It had cooled. I wasn't afraid of being alone in the dark after
that. Night after night I went where I wanted to go, being careful so no
one would see me. I lost this gift upon entering my teens. In the 1980's I
attended a Paranormal class at WVNorthern College. One of the students
began describing how she was able to travel from place to place at night -
out of body when she was a child. It struck me like a bolt of lightning.
Until that night, I did not know anyone else knew this
secret.*

Butch's Ghost It Was Done With
Mirrors....... I am kind of shaky about submitting this article because I
know there will be those that despite my warning not to do so will copy my
actions and may not be as lucky/unlucky as I was. What I am to talk about
here is not a game or something to be played around with, and to this day
I feel I am still suffering repercussions from these very actions.
Maybe if I was raised in another culture I
would have been able to realize the full potential of what I was allowed
to experience but I was raised in this culture and can not understand why
any would choose this as a path to walk.
I walked this one in ignorance and maybe that
is what saved me that I had no idea of what I was doing. If however you
choose to do this now after hearing of my experience then you do it
willingly and your fate is of your own doing/undoing..... I submit it with
hopes that their may have been others out there that may have had a
similar encounter and will after reading this get in contact with
me..
When I was about one year old I awoke to find
myself alone in the house. I know I was one at that time for my brother
Ralph had not been born yet. Finding myself alone in the house I decided I
wanted to finally see what I looked liked. So I took off all my clothing
and was jumping up and down on my parents bed trying to see what I looked
like in the big mirror on the dresser across from their bed.
I had just made my third bound when I saw
something in the mirror that confused me, it was at that point I
heard;
"Ouuuu you nasty little boy you stop that and put your clothes
on!"
It was Mrs. Jones a old lady that lived
across the way from us she had been watching me. I did not know at that
time that my mother had been called to school for an emergency and had
asked her to watch me for she did not want to awaken me. The combination
of what I had seen in the mirror and Mrs. Jones scolding me from across
the yard frightened me and I remember trying to put my clothes back on and
having a hell of a time doing it being so young...
Thank goodness for that for it was my
intention to leave the house and go in search of my mother.
But buttoning a shirt that was on inside out
was more of a task than I thought it would be not to mention trying to tie
the strings of shoes that were on the wrong feet. Half zipped half
buttoned I headed for the front door as I reached it , it opened and my
mother came in. I was so happy to see her that I forgot about what I had
seen in the mirror.
It would be fifteen years later that I would
again see that image that so frightened and confused me. It was as I
stepped from the shower I was sixteen and had pubic hair. Now understand I
had seen myself naked before then but it was just the way I looked that
one time that I recognized the image I had seen and I flashed back to that
little boy bouncing on Mom and Pops bed. Then as I thought about it I said
well if the mirror can show you the future can it show you the
past?
So I took the mirror in my bed room and sat
it on the night table and lit a candle and placed it in front of the
mirror. I had my brother Ralph's Emeny organ on my lap and as I played an
eerie piece of music I had written I looked fixedly on the flame of the
candle while concentrating on the image beyond it in the mirror. Now
understand I know these days this is called "Scrying" but understand this
is just something I just knew to do then. My term for it then and now is
"Calling into the mirror."
As I repeatedly played the tune I said aloud
"Show me my past , show me my past.." To my amazement the face that was
mine became that of a pilgrim a native American an African and then
returned to my face. Astounded at what I had just witnessed I jumped up
and turned on the light blew out the candle and went to my mother.
"Mother" I asked "do we have Indians blood in us?"
"You do..." she said not turning away from
her work in the kitchen. "Its from your fathers side your Grandma Roxy was
Cherokee..." "You don't have any Indian blood in you?"
"No," she said "Your Grandpa Posey "Her
Father my namesake " was half white though."
She went onto tell the story of how my great
grand father had to take my grandfather and run for his life but it fell
on unlistening ears for my mind was know filling with what other things
could be done with mirrors.
My next "Calling Into The Mirror " was to be
my last.
I had been thinking about what I had done and
said to myself well you were looking into the flame of the candle so your
vision was off and of course being of mixed bloods you would have features
of all the bloods with in you , you may have just focused on each of these
features as you were looking in the mirror that's all. So I decided I
would try something so different the next time as to leave no room for
questioning.
The next time I did not use the candle but
put a green Christmas light bulb into the Emeny and turned it so that the
light would shine upon my face. Like this I would not have my vision of
the mirror obscured by the flame of the candle.
I again darkened the room and began to play
the organ but this time saying only, "Come to me , come to me , come to
me..." I deliberately did not put any image in my mind for I thought
it may taint what I saw if I was to see anything at all.
I was swaying back and forth with my eyes
closed , mainly because of the glare of the light in my face
"Calling....... Come to me........ Come to me..." When suddenly
something banged the window, we lived on the tenth floor.
Then fell behind my brother Ralph's bed and
then in the closet across and to the left of me. "Their here !" I thought
as I sat up alert to what had just happened. Then I thought "Who's here?"
I looked to the mirror... There outlined in green light was a face not my
own. It had one large glaring eye over a wide flat pointed nose over a
down turned gapping mouth.
I screamed and threw the organ up into the
air as I race for the door. I Pulled it open only to have it spring from
my hands and slam shut. "It's trying to get you!" I said to myself as I
again grasped the doorknob and pulled the door again was trying to spring
out of my hand to shut but I would not let go this time.
As I stood there having this tug o war with
the door it dawned on me "Maybe if you got your foot out of the way
the door would open stupid!" I looked down and it was my own foot that the
door was hitting that caused it to rebound and slam shut. That was the
last time I called into the mirror.
It was to be in the early eighties that as I
was reading the book called The Wounded Healer Shaman that I came
across a description of the creature I had seen in the mirror, and its
name is Burgestez-Udagan...
The following definition is taken directly
from the book "The Wounded Healer" and it is not my intention to infringe
on copy write and I hope this does not cause me trouble I use it to
impress on any who may read this the why this should not be done by fools
such as I was.
"This wondrous creature places her charge in
a iron cradle, rocks him, tends him, and brings him up on pieces of
coagulated blood. When he has attained proper age, his shaman mother turns
him over to three horrific black and gaunt spirits who hack his flesh to
pieces, place his head on a pole and scatter his flesh in all
directions."
In my panic I had not " Closed the mirror "
as I call it after that , that bed room became a hot spot of activity in
the house. So much so that I demanded to be moved into another bedroom
which I was but the activity followed. My bed would shake and tilt up on
one leg. Thumping would come from with in the concrete wall by the
window.
The six separate panes of the windows in the
room would suddenly bang all at once in a way that can not be done
physically with out breaking them. Screwed on bottle tops would just start
popping off like corks. This continued for years and my mother just called
it Butch's "my nickname" Ghost.
My father did not believe it until one night
he went raging into the room because I was slamming the draws to find that
I was not there and in fact was staying at my Godfathers home in Queens.
This continued until I moved out some years later.
When my parents moved to Virginia I took over
the apartment for a short time and heard it once or twice but would not
sleep in the room. I moved a month later and do not know if it is still
there. I do know that the paint on the wall where the knocking came from
began to peel off of it, all the way down to the
plaster .*

Description of the
event:
Back in
Nov.1996 when my family and I decided to go visit my Father back in
Illinois on the farm, we all had a wonderful evening visiting with family
and friends. We had all finished a wonderful dinner and as I can remember
my father was in the living room watching TV, my wife was just relaxing in
the kitchen at the other end of the table, myself, I was in the bathroom
which joins the kitchen, shaving. I was almost finished, when I heard a
very loud sound coming from the kitchen, almost like someone picking up a
chair and dropping it but I wasn't sure so I went into the kitchen and
tried to ask my wife about the sound that I had heard. I remember her just
looking down at the other end of the table, staring in shock. After a few
moments had passed she told me that the sound came from the chair at the
other end of the table. I asked, how could that sound come from that chair
since the floor was covered with indoor-outdoor carpet. She just said that
while she sat there relaxing, after dinner, that all of a sudden the chair
just started moving back and forth, harder and harder, as though someone
was behind it shaking it out of anger. Thanks dp*

| Sulphur
Smell......& misplaced items |
Reported By: Dana S. - Arlington,
Tennessee - May 5, 2003
Subject: Paranormal Experiences -
Location: Arlington, TN - Time: Various
-
Witnesses: Husband, Wife and children -
EDITOR'S
NOTE:
After Dana contacted Mystical Universe, Brad, The Webmaster,
wrote to her for clarification on several points as well as additional
details. Here is Brad's letter, followed by The Paranormal/Unexplained
Experiences reported by Dana.
Hi Dana:
I don't know if
I can be of much help in your troubles there but I'm willing to share what
little I know with you.
I have read and been told of many instances of
sulfur smell within houses, sometimes with other occurrences and sometimes
not, but I have only been involved personally in just the one
case.
All researchers I know of classify the smell thing as
"paranormal" rather than anything else.
Some of the other
things that happen include misplaced items of personal nature,
inexplicably broken things, lumps and bruises on the body, stones landing
on the roof even in broad daylight, and many others.
One person I
know had her packets of contraceptive pills constantly crushed and placed
in an empty fireplace.
I would be interested in knowing what type of
other occurrences are happening to you as it may help to somehow further
classify what is happening. Also whether you live in the country, suburbs
or apartment, etc., may help.
I cannot tell you whether this
occurrence is a temporary thing as some other instances have persisted
over many months, even to the point where the people involved had to move.
Some also come back over a couple of years and others only happen the
once, never to reoccur.
Some people have had exorcisms performed (by
questionable methods and people to my mind) with only limited
success.
Above all, I do not know of
any instances where the cause of the smell has been successfully
found.
I know this has not helped you with the
answers you and others like you desperately seek, but lying to you about
what we do know or trying to pin a label on it when we don't know anything
would be doing you wrong.
Make up your own mind what you think it
is and don't rely too much on what so called experts try to classify it
as.
My best wishes are with you.

Event Description:
Hi,
I just read with great interest the story on your
website about the sulfur smell.
I, fortunately, have not
experienced any entities at this point, but woke up from a dead sleep at
1:00 AM today with a strong odor of sulfur in my bedroom.
I
got up, looked all over for the cause of the smell and found nothing out
of the ordinary. I first thought it was a gas leak, (but my
husband who works nights --- said we do not have gas at our home). I
called our local power company anyway, they came out and found nothing
except the smell.
I had moved my kids into the living room
and upon reentering my bedroom, I gagged at the odor. The room
was filled with the smell.
I cannot explain this and have
been looking all over the Internet for something similar and the only two
things I come across are water problems and the paranormal.
The smell is not in our water, it is confined only to my bedroom.
We have checked every other option, septic tank, gas leak,
anything in the bedroom and have come up with nothing. The
smell came suddenly and left suddenly, very strange!
Also, after
this smell, there was a very strange marking on my bedroom wall.
It is a teardrop shape a little bit bigger than softball
size. It is a very greasy spot but when you rub it, nothing
comes off on your finger and it doesn't smell. It is about 6-8
inches below my ceiling and between my bed and my daughters bed that is
also in my room.
My husband also noted that the night this
happened, was the 5th anniversary of his Mother's death. I
have no idea if this is something to even consider, but I thought I would
share just the same.
I would be really interested in finding
out anything that may be similar to this event that happened
today. My kids and I spent the remainder of the night/morning
with my mother and will be going back home shortly. My husband
says he thinks the smell is getting better. I am worried about
what it was/is and will it come back.
I would love to hear
anything you may be able to report, and maybe any information about what
steps I might should take from here.
But I must also
mention, over the past few weeks, some strange things have been
happening. All of them can be easily explained by an outsider,
but being on the inside, I know they cannot be explained.
A
couple of things have happened in the last couple of weeks that really can
be
explained, if you are on the outside looking in, if you weren't the
one who experienced them (if that makes sense).
The first thing was
a box of cereal I was looking for in our pantry. I looked all over
the house for it, thinking my daughter had been eating it from the box, in
her room. Checked the pantry again, nothing there. Checked the bedrooms
again, no box.
Went back to the kitchen and the cereal box was
sitting, facing me on the pantry shelf. When I checked the pantry the
second time, I leaned my head down sideways and saw the crackers in the
back... had the box been there, there is no way I could have seen the
crackers, in the back.
The second thing was similar, I was cleaning
out the refrigerator using glass cleaner
and then washed the drawers
out with dishwashing liquid. When I put the drawers back and turned
around, the glass cleaner was gone.
I thought my youngest
daughter might have taken it, but she hadn't. I looked all over the
kitchen, under the sink where we keep it and it wasn't there.
I
opened the other side of the cabinet to put the other cleaner up and there
was my
glass cleaner. I would not put the glass cleaner on that side,
number one, and never opened the cabinet to put it in there. Very
weird.
The cereal thing really upset me, but the glass cleaner just
made me laugh.
Sharing this story would be absolutely fine
with me! I am so thankful that I found something out there about it, and
would love to be able to help anyone else, or at least let others know
that they are not alone.
I would love to hear anything you may be
able to report, and maybe any information about what steps I might should
take from here.
Thank you so much for your time!

Event Description:
The year 1944,
January 22, WW II, Anzio Italy.
American soldiers were to try and
occupy beachhead. Same night in New Jersey, I had just turned 3 years old
a few weeks prior. Some hours after being put to bed, I stood up and began
to scream, a scream of horror.
My parents came running not knowing
what they'd find. My older sister & brother sitting in their beds
scared and dumbfounded. I kept screaming "He's in the water. everyone is
bleeding, the soldiers are dying." What I saw was the "Anzio Massacre."
Our dear family friend was one of the soldiers; he always carried my baby
picture with him, I was the apple of his eye.
When his personal
effects were sent home to his Mom, my baby picture was among the
belongings. It had a hole in it from the artillery shell that ended his
life! I
was chosen to see this so early in life; when I close my eyes I
can still see
and feel that terrible night so many many years
ago.

Description:
I've lived in my little house for about 12 years now.
When I bought it, there were
a lot of repairs to be done. I had removed
some walls to enlarge the kitchen and
living room. So very tiny were
the rooms! But I thought big enough for me.
After I lived here
about a month, I used to hear strange little noises. Sometimes during the
day and sometimes during the night, but I never found
anything.
Then as time went by, it became very annoying. My
youngest daughter came home to spend a weekend with me. I let her have my
room and I went to sleep on the couch. Not long after she came into the
living room like her hind end was on fire.
I asked, "What's wrong?"
She said her eye glasses lifted up off the dresser and floated around the
room as if someone were trying them on. We didn't sleep that
night!
The next day I got the priest to bless the house, but that
didn't do much. So I
got some holy water and did it over again and said
"This is not your home
anymore go to the LIGHT don't be afraid of the
LIGHT it's OK to go. This is now
my home you are in the spirit realm
now, PLEASE GO TO THE LIGHT!
I played hymns and put loud religious
music on. I did it for about four hours. I went to sleep. Whomever
they were finally left and it's been quiet since.

***Another. This
time paranormal. It was so horrible, they sent me to therapy.
First, my step father passed away 9-18-2001. A
year before. On this particular night I was up doing some tattoo designs,
when I got the crave to do one on myself. I did a spiderweb on
my hand and after sterilizing went to sleep around 1:00 AM.
At
approximately 2:00 AM, I felt a strange presence which spooked me like
I've never been before. A dark shadow sat on the edge of my
bed (as my step father use to do) so that the whole bed tilted to one
side, and I felt like I was falling.
I was laying on my face
pretty much, and felt the weight of a hand with all its fore pressing in
the center of my back and the other hand on my carotid, on my
neck. I tried to scream, when I felt my entire spirit try to
leave my body.
At first it seemed so peaceful when I slammed
back down. Then a sultry voice said "Come now" ..and it happened
again. I saw the light in the hall come on and heard my Mom and son
calling me "What's wrong?"
My Mom couldn't turn the light on
and she claims she saw "a shadow standing next to the bed, then vanish
after seeing her." My son cried out "Grandpa!" whom he hadn't seen in a
year.
I was taken by ambulance to the Emergency Room, with "hand
burns" on my back, neck and elevated BP's to the point of near death. I
really wish I knew what happened. It's scary.

Description:
We had just moved from the city and we

figured, that since it was a townhouse, I was hearing my neighbors. I
wasn't. The kids heard this noise also.
My son said he
saw my closet door opening and no one was there. My daughter
was awakened in the middle of the night, horrified as her bed started
shaking uncontrollably. I watched a glass move across the table, in
front of my face. The TV would turn off by itself, and the stereo
would change stations. Then the toilet seat would slam down so hard,
you could hear it on the second floor. I was constantly
changing light bulbs.
I felt that this was definitely
evil. This "thing" was living in my house, doing whatever it wanted,
walking around, flushing the toilet, closing the lid, changing the TV
stations and I was powerless. I never got used to "it" the whole 4 years
that we lived in that house.

PM
County event took place: Liberty - Witnesses: 3 - Number of objects:
3
Additional Information: A house built in the early
1900s
Event Description:
We bought a house in
Devers, Texas in 1990. It badly needed fixing up, so we lived in our
travel trailer until it was livable. This house was built in the early
1900s. We know this as fact because of an old newspaper dated 1910 that
was in the attic space. We got the house livable by Thanksgiving.
Our first "incident" happened the first night we slept in
there. We were not asleep yet, no air conditioner on, windows open, no
breeze outside. It was totally quiet being this far in the country, away
from traffic.
I heard something in the attic space. I listened more
closely to see if maybe it was squirrels. I heard whispering of a couple
of people having a conversation. I told my husband to listen. He said it
was probably someone's radio.
Well, a couple weeks later while my daughter and I were
standing by the microwave in the kitchen talking, the microwave beeped
three times and turned on by itself. Needless to say, the micro was
unplugged.
Then small things would happen, such as pencils and chalk
falling off the chalkboard. The shelf which held the chalk was made at an
angle so the chalk wouldn't roll off.
Then when my husband was working out of town, I was sitting
in the living room by myself, nobody else in the house, the microwave
turned on again by itself. The next day I got rid of it.
Many other small incidents happened, to the point I was
getting used to our house guests. Then the big event happened. In one of
the bedrooms was an open loft. The only way to look into the loft from the
edge was with a ladder.
My daughter and her husband were sleeping in this loft. My
daughter woke up with a funny feeling. She looked to the edge of the loft
and saw two men and a woman, dressed in real early day clothing. They were
looking into the loft. My daughter couldn't put her finger on how the
woman, in particular, was dressed.
I asked a man that has lived in our town most his life, if
this house had any history. He said the house is haunted. Other people
have heard singing of church hymns. My daughter told me that's how that
woman was dressed. Like in the western days, the going to church clothes.
We had a new house built next to the old house and then tore the old one
down. I didn't hear our friends again. Until, one night when my husband
was once again working out of town.
I heard three knocks. I went to the door and nobody was
there. This happened on and off for a couple of years. Then, finally, when
my husband was in bed, and I was sitting on the edge of the bed talking to
him, he told me, "Who could that be knocking at the door at this time?"
Three knocks. I told him our friends were back..he didn't believe
me...went to the door...nobody there.
Since then, little things have started happening in our new
house. One example I was doing my laundry..took a load out of the
dryer..put another load in..put the dryer sheet in...put the box of dryer
sheets on top of a throw away plastic cup.
When I came back to put the new load in the washer, not even
three minutes later, the dryer sheet box was under the plastic cup. My
friends now have a new home...but they're friendly.
Oh yes...and the new microwave has turned on twice, so far,
by itself.

entered my body.
They have been in our apartment for a long time
doing things, but never hurt us. My mother had an encounter with an Alien
Being before i was born. My Dad tried to have me aborted. My son was given
to me in an unusual way. Now the Aliens have targeted him. My son has
characteristics like the aliens of the "Roswell Autopsy."
I believe
in that autopsy they really had actual Aliens. Since everyone believes the
Military and Government lies a lot, no one is going to believe those
Aliens are real.
I have psychic and telekinesis ability and my son
is developing the same abilities we have a real "X File" problem. The

Event
Description:
My Grandmother lives in a
cemetery. I don't know how to start off any better. They told her that all
of the bodies and headstones were removed maybe they were right.
I have two stories and some happenings that have occurred all my life
on this property, in her big scary old house. But first let me do some
explaining. My Grandmother, my Mother and myself have always been able to
either feel, see, or hear the presence of a spirit. Although the stories
have nothing to do with me I still believe them fully and they still to
this day could cause someone to form "goosebumps."
The first story happened to my Grandmother. It was a while after her
Mother died. She was extremely close to her Mother and became very fragile
to death after that.
One night while she was laying in bed, she started thinking a lot about
her Mother. Before she knew it, she looked up and there sat her Mother, at
the foot of her bed comforting her. Like I said before we all are and have
been able to see spirits. So my Grandmother wasn't freaked out, she was in
tears just happy to see her mother again. She also had more experiences
with her Mother coming to see about her and numerous other people who have
died in the past.
The second story is about my Mother when she was about 15. Her brother
was wild and decided one day that he wanted to find out if the bodies
really had been removed from the cemetery. So he started digging and found
numerous articles of clothing and a casket handle. Later that night while
everyone was in bed they heard a baby cry. A long wailing cry that lasted
all night. My Grandmother also backed this up. And I believe every word of
it. My Mother's theory of the situation is that they disturbed a
baby/child's resting place and so it wanted to let them know.
All my experiences aren't like the two above, but they are really
freaky to me, especially since I'm still young and still have more
Paranormal Experiences to witness.
My story has happened all my life. The strongest point is in my
Grandmother's bedroom. It's the number one place I can hear and feel
spirits, although I never have seen a spirit in her house.
Every night that I slept with her, I would hear footsteps, the floor
creaking, the doors squeaking, and other numerous sounds added to these.
Even though I don't sleep with her anymore, everytime I enter her room,
this strange feeling comes over me where I just want to start crying and
run out of the room as fast as I can.
What causes these feelings I
don't know, but I know something's the cause, but I just can't explain
it.

"They didn't
Survive the Fire" |
Submitted By: Patricia, New York
"They didn't
Survive the Fire"
When we first purchased our house several years ago, we were
unaware of any past histories concerning our new home. I have four sons,
ages at the time of the first sighting was 6 years, 4 years and 2 year old
twins. They were outside playing in the sandbox that my husband built for
them, our entire yard was fenced in because we live right next to a river.
The twins wanted to go inside, and so did my 6 year old, so I brought them
indoors, leaving the 4 year old to continue playing.
After a few
minutes he came inside all upset, yelling to me, "Mom, who are those kids
playing in my sandbox?"
I panicked, thinking someone was trying to
kidnap my child. I ran outside, but to no avail, nothing. I came back
inside and told him there wasn't anyone outside. He became very angry and
insisted there were kids out there!
I quickly dismissed him because
after all, he was a toddler and thought he was making it up.
A few days later, they were all outside again and I really had to
go to the bathroom. I told them I would be right back out. I no
sooner got to the bathroom, when I heard a child scream at the top of
their lungs, "Mommy!" My heart fell into my stomach ... because
being a mother, you know when you hear a scream like that, you know its a
life or death scream! I was so scared I ran outside with my pants
still down and yelled to them, 'What is it?' I envisioned that one
of them had rolled down the bank into the river.
They were all
there, looking at me like I was crazy and said "We're okay Mommy!" I
was shaking so badly. I knew what I had heard. I was upset and
needed to tell someone, so I called my mother-in-law. She proceeded to
tell me that there had been a bad fire in a renovated barn that a couple
had lived in on our property, with their two small children. The two
children died in that fire.
After further investigating, their
sandbox was built right where the barn had been. After the incident, I
questioned my son on seeing these children. He told me that they were
screaming and crying for their Mommy. He said they were reaching up with
their hands! I asked him what they looked like. He said, "One was a
little boy and the other was a girl with long blonde braids with "pink"
ribbons in her hair." I was so surprised that he remembered the
color of her ribbons, after all he was only 4.
So I said to him,
"No, I think they were both boys." He became adamant that one was a
girl. After looking into old newspaper clippings and asking elders,
he was right all along. The sad part is, after my telling these poor
spirits to go on into the light, they are still not at rest. They
turn our TV's up, set off our smoke detectors in the middle of the night,
and every once in a while, they will appear as a round ball of light in
front of my oldest son and myself.
One other time, he cried out,
"Mom" to me when my oldest son and I were the only ones at home. My oldest
son was very scared, but will still not publicly admit these happenings.
He sleeps with the hall light on, he's now seventeen years old. I think
that I am sensitive to spirits. I have also seen a man peering in at me in
my room at night through my doorway. He seemed very angry at me, for some
reason.
I have gone to a psychic and she never knew my name or
where I was from. She told me of a woman by the name of 'Anna' that is in
my house. She is protective and loves my children. After my own
investigating, there was a woman by the name of 'Anna' who lived in this
house before the owner from whom we purchased the house from. She also
told me of a man who is mostly outside. I think this must be the man I
saw. These spirits are not here all the time, I cannot explain how I know
this, I just do. They are not mean, they are just lost. I wish I could do
more for them.
I forgot to tell you that I interviewed a fireman
who was on call, the night the children perished. He was a 16 year old
volunteer. He said he will never forget that night as long as he will
live.
He found them upstairs, hiding underneath their bed. The
small boy had lifted his arm up and out from under the bed in an upright
position as if to let someone know where they were. This would explain my
sons story as to them crying with their hands held up for their mother. He
also told me that the girl was the cutest little thing, and that her Mom
had always kept her hair in braids! Give you the willies or
what?

First
Incident:
Ok, I'll start off by saying I am 13 and live in a farmhouse that
is 114 years old and use to be the dairy farm of Wilmington, Ohio, it's 5
1/2 acres. Nothing had happened in the house till about 4 years in the
house. I was the first to have something happen to me. It started off when
me and my brother was playing crossfire one night. It got late so we went
to bed. I slept on the top of a bunk. I was awakened sometime early
morning dark still, to a shooting sound. I looked through the darkness to
see the crossfire game playing by itself. It scooped up the balls and
everything. I was freaked out, but then it stopped and I heard creeping
noises come close up to my bed and stop in front of me. I closed my eyes
and I guess fainted, because the next thing I knew, it was light and I
smelled breakfast cooking.
Second
Incident:
My brother (15 now) was having his room remodeled so his stuff was
in a hall outside his room. He came running to me one day, frightened
telling me what happened. He was getting dressed in the hall, when he felt
something watching him. He turned slowly to the right to see a women
figure dressed in an old dress that he described big and puffy. He ran
down the stairs at the end of the hall, turning back to find out she had
disappeared.
Third
Incident:
My bigger brother's girlfriend was home alone one day. She was
cleaning my brother's room peacefully listening to 'Red Hot Chile Peppers'
CD, when it all of a sudden turned off. She thought nothing of it. Walked
up to it, went to push the start button, when it slowly pushed in itself.
Later on the stereo ended up eating the tape. Well, since then nothing has
happened but I would like to know if this house is haunted or if Im
crazy.

whole barn lit up.
It stayed like that for about thirty seconds. Then a ball of light flew

Description:
One night I was feeling
"touches" in my sleep. It was almost like someone was touching my
shoulder, poking me in the arm, trying to get my attention. The next day I
was going to an amusement park, so I went to bed early.
I kept
feeling these "touches" as if whomever was doing this was trying to "tell"
me something. It was really annoying me. No one was around at all. I never
saw any figure at all. I still feel these "touches" all the time. That
morning I made my bed in a special way and then when I went out for the
day I wanted to check the results. So when I arrived back that evening, my
sheets and covers were on the floor.
I was very surprised. I know I
made my bed before I left because I always do. I still am clueless to what
happened that day. Though, I feel good if its someone nice and not a
homewrecker. I pay no attention and sometimes someone might "touch" me but
it does not bother me. I think I am just lucky to feel things that friends
and family don't feel.

Event Description:
The story of my house is
a little strange. Its a large, old, three story house, I inherited when my
mother died of cancer in 1980. Supposedly my mother had an uncle who lived
in the house when she was a kid. Supposedly he was, a mean, lonely man,
who was involved in the supernatural. Every night he locked himself in his
bedroom, and tried to contact Satan, by supernatural means. Supposedly one
night he did contact Satan, and the room caught on fire. Shortly after
that My mothers uncle committed suicide.
But the paranormal event I
had, happened on the night of April 16, 1984. One I'll never forget. At
the time I was living in the house alone, I was 26, and not married yet.
It was a normal night, like any other, and I went to bed around 10 P.M.
But I was awakened at around 2 A.M. by footsteps in the room across the
hall. The room where my mothers uncle supposedly contacted Satan.
I
got up and turned on the light, and walked over to the room. I opened the
door, and looked in. It was dark, and dusty, and I noticed, nothing out of
the ordinary, so I turned around and started back to bed. I was half way
there, when I heard a deep, laugh, from the room, so I turned around to
see a bright red light glowing under the door. I hesitated then swung the
door open to see the room was on fire, and a tall, creature in a long
black cape stood in the center of the room. At first I thought it was a
man, then I noticed the long, sharp horns on its head, and its gleaming
red eyes. I wanted to run! But I was paralyzed.
I knew the creature
must be Satan. Then he said something I'll never forget. " Are you a
follower of mine, like you're uncle?" I managed to get out a soft "no."
"No?" He said, I could hear the anger in his voice. "Do you not worship
me?" Then I decided I needed the Lord's help. I looked him straight in the
eyes, and said "No, I follow Christ." Then He yelled angrily, "So be it!",
and with that he vanished.
I found myself, in the dark, dusty room
like nothing ever happened. Was I dreaming? Sleep walking? No. I believe I
had a confrontation with Satan, and the Lord helped me defeat him. Just
goes to show that Good, defeats evil. I moved out of the house and into my
brothers, apartment two weeks later. I don't think any one lives
there.

TheMusic Played On - Submitted by: Martha,
Chicago, IL - December 31, 1999
Subject: Paranormal
Experiences from 1981 to current
Description of
Events:
My parents died when I was in college. My Mom died of cancer in
December 1980, and my dad died a year later, on Christmas Eve, of a heart
attack. A lot of unusual things happened when they were alive also, but
this particular instance happened sometime during the year after my dad
died.
My Mom had a small collection of music boxes. Some were the
kind you just wind up on the bottom, and others were the kind where you
wind them up but have to open the box for the music to play. These were
kept on shelves that were on both sides of the fireplace in our family
room. One night, my sister and I were sitting in that room watching TV,
and the music boxes
started playing. Even the ones that you would
normally have to open for the music to start. Needless to say, this
freaked me out a lot. I didn't know what to do, so the next day I packed
them up in a couple of boxes and taped them shut and put them in the
basement. Within the next year, we sold the house (it was huge and there
were just the two of us), and bought a smaller house in a different
suburb. I took the boxes with the music boxes with us, but put them in the
attic unopened. One night, I was walking down the upstairs hallway past
the door to the attic, and I could hear the music boxes
playing.
What was that? My Mom checking in? I did not know what to
do after that, because I didn't want to keep being freaked out by that,
but I didn't know what would happen if I threw them out or gave them away.
Finally, we sold that house a couple of years after that when we moved I
"conveniently" forgot to take those two boxes.
I will add that
while in that second house, I did see the ghost of my mother in the
kitchen once, not doing anything but just standing there looking out the
back door.
It was the first house I mentioned that really had things happening in
it. This surprised me at the time, I think, because it was not an old
house. In fact, my parents had it built in 1974. But at the time I thought
that paranormal experiences were confined to only old houses. I regularly
saw and smelled cigar smoke in the living room (like when you see smoke
drifting over a lighted lamp), smelled lilacs and lily of the valley at
really odd times, and things moved themselves around on a regular basis.
One night I woke up and there was someone sitting on the end of my bed; no
one I knew, he was dressed in clothes that I would connect with the Civil
War era. When I called out, he just disappeared.
When we were packing up to leave that house when we sold it in 1983, my
cousin came out with me one night to help me pack some things. We went out
in the back yard at one point, and the weirdest thing happened. My Mom had
a pair of those ceramic elves that you see in gardens, that a friend of
hers had given her. We decided that we should take those to the new house,
and I bent down to pick one up and it MOVED. Now this is really weird, but
my cousin saw it too. In fact, he screamed before I did. It was so sudden
and unexpected. We just left. And I left those there, thinking that
maybe they were meant to stay there.
You have to remember that I was about 21 years old at this time, and
all of these things scared me a lot. They don't anymore, and I react quite
calmly to the things that happen nowadays. I can't explain why they scared
me so much then. I do know that something happened to me as a child that
scared me a lot. All I know is that it involved the closet in my bedroom
(I vaguely remember that part), but my Mom would never tell me what it
was. My sister knows what it is, but she won't tell me because she says it
is too scary for me to handle. I don't know what that experience was. The
only other thing that happened from my younger childhood was that I saw my
grandmother's spirit in our house, walking from the kitchen to the bedroom
in which she died. (This is the house I lived in up until 1974 when we
moved to the first of the two houses I mentioned above.) The odd
thing about that was that Grandma had had a leg amputated, but when I saw
her she was "whole." All I know is that it wasn't all just at one house,
and it seems like I had to be there for these things to happen. I
don't know of anything else that happened without my being
involved.

Description:
I was 14 at the time and
staying at my great-grandmother's house with a friend. We were laying in
bed reading in an upstairs bedroom which still held an old iron crib that
nearly all family babies had used for the past 60 years. Suddenly, an
anguished cry broke the silence. Startled, I looked up and saw a baby,
about 18 months of age, wearing a white bed gown, sitting up in the crib
crying as if in pain, "Mama, Mama,..." and choking and gasping for
breath. I have always been a very maternal person from the time I was a
young child, and perhaps that is why, without fear, I got out of bed and
went to console the baby. I leaned over the iron rails of the crib and
reached out to pick up the distraught child.
Simultaneously I heard a loud CLICK, the crying stopped, and the
overhead light went off. Now terrified, I ran to the bed, jumped in,
pulled the covers over my head, and lay there trembling. My friend, who
was in the same bed, claimed not to have seen or heard anything. When I
told my grandma about this she told me of her little brother who had
fallen when he was just under two, and died of internal injuries two weeks
after his accident. Since that event took place I have had many
experiences, both paranormal and UFO sightings. I am unable to discuss
this with even good friends, who just don't understand. I am also very
disturbed to think that my little great-uncle is in eternal pain and have
since chosen to think that instead of his suffering spirit that what I saw
was more like a recording on the fabric of time.
When I became an adult my mother told me that many family members have
had experiences, seeing and especially hearing things that are no longer
there. I have no fear of the house, but instead have drawn detailed
sketches and an oil painting of it and consider it a most important part
of my family history. The house was built by my great- grandfather, who,
the moment he pounded in the last nail sat down on a bench on the porch,
lay his hammer down and passed quietly away.
