Has anybody ever had any paranormal experiences?

Asked by Katniss (6656points) July 15th, 2013 from iPhone

Was it good? Bad? Funny? Or are you a non believer who thinks the rest of us are crazy? lol
My fiancés house is quite the hotbed of activity so I have quite a few stories that I can share.
I would love to hear some of yours.

I’ll start with a short one. Last summer my man and I were just sitting around watching tv, just us and Joey the cat, all of a sudden this little face came poking around the corner into the living room. Both of us were like wtf? Did you see that? We got up from the couch and heard little footsteps running away, then nothing. It was crazy and pretty unbelievable sounding, but it happened.

Never and I’m 50 years old. Crazy experiences appear crazy at first, but once you dig deeper explanations will come forward. A lot of “footsteps” have to do with bad plumbing.

When I was about thirty, my grandmother, who had been dead for over six years, told me I looked tired one evening when I was up late studying. Even though it had been a dozen years since I had heard her voice, I recognized it immediately and even answered her telling her I was ok and just had to finish this. Then it struck me what had just happened. It left me with a wonderful feeling of being looked after. Could I have been overtired? Yes. Do I think that makes it any less real to me? No.

I have definitely experienced something, I just have no clue what it was or what caused it.

My ex-wife haunts me in my sleep. Does that count?

No. I’ve experienced lots of coincidences, though.

I don’t think so but I like to believe those that do. @rojo that sounds like a great experience!

Just one. I used to work in an old building that had several reports of poltergeist activity. One day in the office, a heavy box-file suddenly flew off a solid, immovable shelf and landed twelve feet away on the other side of the office. Several people saw it, including myself. No-one was anywhere near the shelf when it happened. I was curious to see how the “trick” was done and by whom, so I jumped up and picked up the box-file to inspect it and put it back. But there was nothing attached to either the box or the shelf, and no indication of what might have caused it. A pencil laid on the shelf actually rolled towards the back, not the front, so it did not simply slide off.

On another occasion in the downstairs bar of the same building, several glasses flew off a shelf above the bar and smashed against a wall, witnessed by two electricians and our staff caretaker who were working in there at the time.

Those are just two of many unexplained incidents that happened while I was there, and staff who had been there longer than me reported many more.

I can’t talk about this now. I’m in a dark room by myself.
