Uncontrollable Tears Running Down My Eyes

I’ve been having an unusual and overwhelming emotional feeling (not happy or sad, more like a surge of mixed emotions) this often is followed by uncontrollable tears running down my eyes…

Please can someone explain this to me?

Thanks!

Why Cant I Be Alone in this House?

So, I feel kind of weird asking this question because I have never in my life dealt with this kind of stuff. I live in a very old house with my boyfriend. He has always told me that weird things have happened to him. One house we stayed in, he said he would see shadows.

One time he said when we were asleep that he saw a reddish colored sweater in another room that moved towards him. He has woken up in the middle of the night thinking I was choking him. The house that we are in now (I moved out because of personal issues) he is afraid to stay there alone. There are times when he is so scared that he cant move.

He has a bible that he leaves open on a shelf to Psalms 23, and he said he keeps noticing that it changes to be 1 page off.

Every once in a while he sees a scruffy looking guy for a very quick second to where he cant make him out.

Now he says there is a spirit named Jeffrey that tells him bad things, including that he doesn’t like me and I cant be in the house, that I’m trying to hurt my boyfriend or that the other spirit is trying to hurt him. The only thing that has stopped the bad spirit is our dog.

What really freaks me out is that the last couple of days, I have been finding half pieces of Tylenol or Xanax on the floor. My boyfriend told me today that “Jeffrey” told him the bad spirit drops the pills on the floor to try to poison our dog so he will “go to sleep”.

I don’t know if my boyfriend is going crazy or if something is actually happening. He told me that I cant be in the house by myself no matter what. I have never experienced any of this, even when I was living there full time by myself. Please please help to shed some light on this.

Does Hell Truly Exist?

Hey all

So this may sound like a dumb question, but I have my reasons for asking this.

Dante’s Vision of Hell

Does hell truly exist?

My reason is this:

I’m not extremely familiar with the bible but I know my way around it. I believe in eternal reoccurrence, which is also a teaching of the bible by the way (ECC 1:9) “that which was, is what shall be and that which is done is that which shall be done and there is no new thing under the sun”

(The bible seems to go around in circles too – but I’m not going into detail)

We are made of energy and anybody can tell you that energy can’t be destroyed.

I believe in the awesome power of “God”, because it is the one infinite power controlling our never-ending madness of death and rebirth, but somehow I can’t wrap my head around the over-exaggerated tale of hell, and sinners burning and being tortured endlessly in a pit of fire. It doesn’t seem to fit into anything.

Was this just a false teaching the Catholic church made up to control the masses with fear? If it does exist, could it be possible that it is located on another “place” on Earth (not a physical place – if you know what I mean)

I don’t doubt the existence of spirits and demons – I have way too many experiences behind my back to even doubt, but the typical thought of hell is just too far fetched for my liking.

Any thoughts?

Kind regards Sun!que

Out of Body Experiences?

Hey all.

Firstly thanks CT for bringing this forum up after the last one went down, it really shows the dedication you have to people who need answers.

Secondly – let me start by saying that I am familiar with the paranormal but I need serious closure on something that’s been haunting me for a number of years.

When I was 5 years old all the way until I was 7 I experienced “waking up in my dreams” a lot, this would typically happen when I stand up to see myself lying on the bed. Everything around me would be the same way I left it. I always try to switch on the lights but they never seem to work. I would “dream” terrible things.

About 3 years ago I had the same thing but it haunts me all the time – only because it has never felt as real as it did that night.

I “awoke” and tried to switch the lights on, and to no surprise they didn’t work. I don’t even remember feeling like I actually touched the light switch. I felt overwhelmingly anxious and fearful. As I stepped out of my room into the passage, there was a man, all I saw was a knife in his morbidly distorted hand, he seemed to move in a sick, crazy and completely insane way. I remember feeling the uncontrollable urge to run as far as I could but I was restricted to the passage and the kitchen. I couldn’t leave the boundaries – it was just endless blackness out the windows. I looked at the clock as I sat in the corner of the kitchen, 2:15am. As I heard him coming around the corner into the kitchen I had the unmistakable knowledge of what his intentions were, to consume me.

I willed myself awake, feeling sweaty and extremely ill.

I looked at my bedside clock, 2:16am – a minute after the time I originally saw.

My question is this – was I just dreaming? Or was it as real as I think it was? Does this occur often in people?

The house has its paranormal problems, knocking coming from everywhere and nowhere, scratching sounds, shadows – we even have photographic evidence of a half-bodied apparition in broad daylight.

Is stuff like this even possible?

Many regards Sun!que

Shadow People – What Are They?

This is something that has perplexed and fascinated me for some time. I have read a lot about the Shadows but nothing has ever come to light as to exactly what they are.

Anyone any ideas?

Visions – What Causes Them?

This question is inspired by Lisa. Thanks, Lisa.

What influences visions?

Are they the direct result of communication with spirit or psychometry or telepathically based?

What is the purpose behind visions?  Are there different kinds of vision?

Is there a difference between daydreaming and visions?

Like Lisa, I get random images in my head so I thought this would be a really interesting topic to discuss.

Could Spirits That So Many Experience Be Not What They Seem to Be?

Greetings all

First off, please forgive me CT if this is in the wrong post forum, but I have a thought. I’ve been poking around and reading this and that and it dawned on me, how do we really know if a ghost is a ghost, a demon is a demon and so on… which brings me to this. ET’s of another life form, could they take on different shapes and control our thoughts and minds?

I believe in God, I know our world and the human race didn’t just happen, MHO only :)… just like a Christian comedian, Mark Lowery said, suppose you took a Timex watch and put it in a bag and smashed it all to pieces, then waited around a 1000 years and shook it out of the bag, it would still be in pieces. So I do think that there is a greater one out there.

So, what if this was possible, could the spirits that so many experience are really not what they seem to be?

What Made These Strange Footprints in the Snow?

Many years ago, my daughter and I were snowed in at our place of employment. More than three feet of snow were on the ground, making it impossible to get home for almost two weeks.

When we finally got back, my daughter went outside to take some photographs (this was before the advent of digital photography) and noticed some large footprints in the snow that started in a certain spot not too far from the house, and went up a small embankment and stopped. None of the rest of the snow in the yard had been disturbed in the slightest.

What could that be? Thank you in advance for any response.

What Was That Ringing Bell Sound?

A few years ago, every night around the same time, my small child and I would hear a bell tinkling outside the window.

We live in a rural area with no neighbors, and it was incredibly perplexing. It sounded like a little hand bell.

Any ideas what this might have been?
