Spooky Stuff

[IslandTweet]

from i was a child i always liked scary movies, i read most of stephen king's novels (until i realised that he runs on too much). just now while i was reading a thread i couldve sworn i saw somebody walk past the mirror, thought it was my son but nobody was in the room with me.

bahamian history is fraught with ghost-like sightings and spirits and such. there was one story that my grandmother told me about a lady who went to the graveyard to raise this man from the dead to help her with whatever, cant remember exactly what, but it was just damn spooky. then there is the story of a man who was all dressed up trying to get a ride uptown and he would get in the back seat and would be talking with the driver and suddenly he's not there anymore.

anybody gat any personal experience of something eerie happening to them?

I will comment on this when I get back from the gym.I had a paranormal experience when I was like 16 that I STILL can't believe.

I've had a few moments I can't describe. Some moments I can say were simple hallucinations or my imagination. Yet specific moments are just question marks in the back of my mind. I'll just say this: there very well might be some power(s) or happenings out there and I just don't want to provoke it.

I'm torn between having a open mind on paranormal stuff and declaring it bullshit. Obviously some weird shit that can't be explained be going on, some shit is fake or just some loony folks.

I remember as a kid being scared of the "Bloody Mary" myth. Might be called something else where you from. You know you say the chicks name 3 times, usually in front of a mirror and she appears and kills you or some shit. Well at my school we had this storage area it was outside and down into the ground, steps leading down to it. Big Metal door. We'd go down there and supposedly Bloody Mary lived down there. So we'd go down there and knock on the door and chant her name, then run like the wind. I remember one time some kids passed by the door and it was open,maintinence worker was in there, and news spread around the school. Kids were all scared and shit. I dunno what it was, maybe just being a scared kid, but something down there wasn't right. Felt creepy like a mofo, like there was evil down there.

There was the time I visited my cousins who were a few years older than me, I was maybe 8 or 9. They broke out the Ouja board one night when it was just the 3 of us in the house and they convinced me they were talking to the dead and the dead were making the board move and shit. And later that same night they convinced me there was a UFO outside the house. Turned out it was just a street light behind some trees. Man those girls had me scared to goto sleep that night.

Yeah, one time I woke up from somebody pushing me and I thought it was my homeboy. Come to find out that it wasn't him and his grandfather died in the same house.....

i've heard ppl saying things like this too, sleeping and feeling somebody touch them then they find out that somebody had died in the house.

something else weird that happens to me is that i tend to get what we call 'death marks' where it looks like somebody pinched you on the arm or leg and it turned black and fades over a few days time. i can remember two times specifically, the first was on my calf, i had a big black mark on my calf for days (and it hurt like hell when you touch it), the second was when i had these five finger marks on my thigh, it looked like somebody had used just the pad of their fingers and grabbed my leg; and i'm already red so you know wasnt no hiding them. i sometimes get them on the back of my arms where i dont notice them and then if i'm wearing a sleeveless top my mother would ask who pinched me. at first i used to be scared but i dont worry anymore, i tend to reflect on who i may have said something bad to that day, LOL!

The scariest thing that happened to me was one nite i was sleep then i felt the lower corner of my bed go down. So i jumped the hell up and nobody was there. I know it wasn't my grandmother because her room is all the way in the back and you can hear when someone walks in the room because the floor creak. But anyway I lay back down and then my face just got madd cold. Even to this day I don't know what that was.

Ok, I've got one I can add. Several years ago I was staying
at this older couples house who were friends of my grandma
and on the first night I was there I wokeup in the middle of the
night and sitting in a rocking chair right next to the bed
was this little old lady with her hair pulled back and wearing a
shaw rocking in the chair paying me no attention. I looked over
and stared at her for awhile (thinking what the hell) then went back
to sleep thinking I was dreaming. I few days later I told my grandma
about it cause I did think in was kind of weird because it was so
realistic. Well, a few weeks later my grandma told me she had spoke
to the older couple and had brought up what I had seen. As it turns
out that before her death the older woman's mother had lived with
them. I had slept in her bedroom and that was her favorite rocking
chair which she spent hours in rocking. Without ever seeing a picture
of her or knowing about her I had described what she had looked
like. She had died 30 years before....

I stayed in that room 3 nights but I didn't see her again after
the first night but then again I never wokeup again in the middle
of the night either...

I was sleep and dreamed somebody kicked me, and my whole body jerked foward. Then I woke up and couldn't move or talk! And I was dreaming that I was taking over by "evil". It sounds crazy but it happend

[D_Marcus]

I've got several that was either told to me or one or two that actually happened to me but for the most part I think they can all be logically explained. I don't believe in "ghost stories" much, like Penn and Teller says...

My wife swears that her dead father walks around still in her mothers house. He died in the basement from a heartattack and my wife found him dead when she was 8 years old. I wonder if he was watching while we were getting busy in the basement.

When I was in junior high in Germany on an army base. The teacher at the time said something about Hitler and the door suddenly slammed shut hard. The whole class was like WTF?

I dont know if ghost are real or not. But I figure if you are a ghost you are in a fucked up situation. You are like in purgatory. Being a ghost is like waiting on a bus that is never coming.

[bookofrev]

^^^ Yeah the shit seems fucked up! But what if its like the movie Ghost, when you can fuck with people????? What if you are angels, and help!! It's so many questions, I need to die and come back!

Even into my adult hood, i have had some weird experiences that could not be explained and definately were more than just in my head. In particular I had an experience where i was lying in my room awake in the bed round 5am. I audibly heard with my ears and in my head what sounded like a chorus of over-lapping voices saying "999,999,999,999" not just nines but the actual number phonetically... my entire body went cold, and i felt the cold move up from my feet to my head like being submerged in water. I checked my self to see if i was sleeping, but i was clearly awake, I sat up in my bed kind of shook, but curious also. I honestly began to pray at that moment and just as i was in the middle of my prayer, with my eyes closed, I saw what would be similar to a burst of light through my eye lids and when i opened my eyes, it was as if the light was dimmimg much like when you see a flash-light that is turned off and the bulb decreases in intensity.

The voices ended, the chill left my body, and I was sitting there in the dark and I swear on my life I am a grown man that can differenciate between a dream and being awake, I knew something was in my room with me. I have excellent vision, and even in the dark the only light is my LCD from my cable box and my glow of my computer which illuminates the wall at then other end of the room. I could see quick glimpses of faces appear in my room in mid air. none of the faces were that that had any characteristics that you would visibly wrecognize as human, more so a feeling that these were faces by feeling more than sight. I tried to get to that secure place where I know I am a man of reasoning and everything has a meaning and explanation... but I could not brush it off to this day as a life-like dream or other... I know what happened...

the clincher to all of this is that towards the end of my 15 minute long episode, I was sittin on my bed looking around, certain to all extents that I was not alone in the room, and i was thinking, damn just let my phone ring to break the tension and let me know I am awake...as sure as i said that my cell phone rings at 5:17am right after the thought... I aint jokin, i was shook to answer it, but i grabbed it looked at the number, it was a mount vernon, NY number... I answered... and there was no one there. I was like "hello" hello... no answer... I then was like nahhhh fuk this. And i called back the number which rang and rang.... I later went to bed after all had cooled down.

Just to be sure i wasnt buggin, the next day I called the number on my cell, still in the recent call list, so i knew that i actually did get the call, someone answered, an older lady...I simply asked "did you call me early this am" she said no must have the wrong #... then i did the thing that goes like "but your number is on my phone" and she said... you must have the wrong #.

to finally put it to rest that I was not insane, I got me nextel bill that month and sure as shit, the number showed up as 30 second call from that number at 5:17am.

I was so certain that something did happen to me that night that I wasted no time either sounding really honest or really insane by telling my entire family. My sister is the only one that believed me, my wife said to just pray. My Father and Step mom, think it was stress and i need more sleep. But I told them all, "you know me to be a man of reason, and if i go out on a limb to tell you something this intimate has happened to me, be assured, I am not lying"

this is common, It happened to me and still does, that feeling that you get if you may be falling asleep and trip down the stairs and for real in your bed your legs jerk. I read up on this, when you fall asleep, your body starts to shut down certain nueral paths that control motor function. The purpose is so that you do not injure yourself and act out your dreams as in jumping off a cliff in your dream and waking up dead on the sidewalk of your building for real. In sleepwalkers, the neural signals make it through and they can become violent to themselves or simply go for a walk, they are in a limbo type state. In the instances that you jump in bed because of a dream, your body is in the inbetween states, of consciousness and un-consciousness. So its kind of like you are almost all shut down ready to cross over to dream land, but you have that one or two rogue impulses that make it through and hence.,... that kick in your bed that makes that trip down the stairs feel so real.

what bugs me out is that the mechanism in place to shut down the nueral impulses to protect you was implemented by our creator probably through trial and error. I always wonder what the human beta was like... maybe we are the beta.

You wanna hear some freaky shit?

I was just searching for an old thread, and came across this one.
I was reading what I had wrote above and came to the part in the post where I stated about the phone ringing.
Just as I read that, the lights in my living room dim a few times and the power goes off for a few seconds and comes back on.

Weird shit.
Lucky my laptop has a battery, cause if I was sitting here in the dark when I read that, I\'d be dippin out the room.

Fuck that.

Ive had a couple experiences since i moved into my house, one day im on my enclosed back porch cleaning up, i have some cabinets back there well i know they were closed and im cleaning i lift up and hit my head on the cabinet so im like wtf i know this was just closed. so i close it and go back to work lift up again but make sure i move my head over its open again, so im like wtf so i close it and go back to cleaning but im watching the cabinet lift up and it stayed closed that time. so i leave the back porch and come back its still closed. it hasnt never opened by itself since then.

Another instance im chillin upstairs on the pc(On PB) and i hear kids running around downstairs, nobody lives here but me and the only person who has a key is my uncle who was supposed to be coming over and he also has kids so i think its him and hell be coming upstairs n a little bit. after a couple minutes and no one comes up i got to the top of the stairs and yell out there names no answer but i still hear the running. so i go down the stairs and it sounds like the running is coming from the living room, i proceed into the living room. as i proceed into the living room the sound moves into the dining room, i open the doors leading into the dining room and the sound moves into the kitchen. so by then im like hell nah wtf is goin on. my kitchen leads on my back porch and i here the sound coming from back there, i walk out onto my back porch and i hear my door closing, its a big glass door so u can see if anybody was leaving off i see none and both of locks where on and you need a key to unlock the deadbolt from either side

Dat was some creepy shit

[fatal]

No lie.

When I was about 18 right before I left for NY, me and my little cousin, who was about 3 or 4, were driving around, seeing old relatives. Out on a long strip of country road, it was just about to turn dark and no other cars were around, and something caught my eye on the passenger side. It was moving right along side the car and shot off out to the side. It didn't have any light to it, but appeared to me metal and roundish oval shaped

It happened so fast that I thought I was just seeing things, or maybe some lint fell past my eye or some shit. But right after it happed, my little cousin who I though was sleep, says, "OOOOOO did you see that Airplane!!!"


Now at this point I was floored, and know that we saw something out there that night. A child doesn't lie out of the blue like that, he saw something too, that just reassured that I in fact saw something too.

I asked him what he saw, and he said, "I saw that airplane right there(points to the back passenger window) and it said shwwoooonnn!!(makes a flying motion with his hand)"


When he said that I felt chills all over and the hairs stand up on the back of my neck. I never told anyone to this day, until now. I asked him about it last time I saw him, just to see if he remembered but he didn't, he's about 8 or 9 now.


Even when I'm writing this it shakes me up alittle, because I never had an expereince like that before or after said event.

[Evelina]

Spooky Stuff yeah a lot happen but nothing big i heard a lot from other people

there are times that i felt i was not alone in a room
also when u wake up and u have marks on you
things like that maybe more but i don't remember everything

but what made me scared a lot was when i was about 12 was the time when my aunty die(my mother sister)
i keep seen her when i went to sleep for a while ..and was the same always she was calling me to go to her

We have a saying if someone die and u seen them call u on your dream means want u with them
if u go in your dreams u will die and go with them if u wont nothing will happen ...its like u agree to go if u go

anyway i never dream a lot and was first time i saw someone on my dream that had die

i never told my parents this didn't wanted to tell especially my mother she was not in a condition at that time to tell ...she was more like a living dead took this very bad of her sister death ...
my aunty was just 31 when she die ..was a car accident..

there is a lot to this story but i think this is enough :rolleyes:

Now that was some freaky "white Noise" type shit!

I would have hauled ass to my moms house and sleeped in her bed for real!

Sounds like the plot to one of them devil/horror flicks.

Damn Grendel, you just spooked the shit out of me. Got me looking over my shoulders all fast and shit.
