Paranormal Q&A

I have had strange occurrences for many years, my husband is a scientist and skeptic so there is no point asking him what the source or point of them is.

I have had suitcases moved in my basement, I have had indoor lights flashing on and off, I have had scratches on my chest upon awakening, I have had locks, chains, and bolts on my door unsecured after I’ve secured them, I’ve had my charging cell phone with its charger thrown across the room and the phone wedged under a cabinet it could not have slid under by itself, and I find loose change outside my house. If I sing hymns to “whatever it is,” things stop for a short period of time.

I would like to know if this sounds like I have a “visitor” from another realm and if so, how do I get rid of it?

Hello, not sure if this has been asked before but I recently saw something that had me somewhat confused.

I am not sure if ‘doorway’ of spirits travelling through the worlds is the correct term (I don’t have much knowledge in this department) so I apologize if I am wrong.

Anyway, a few nights ago around 10:30pm I was making a drink in the kitchen. It was dark and I had the lights on inside so everything outside the window was black. In my house through the kitchen window, you can see the living door. Opposite the living room door are the stairs. Well, this time when I was making drink, I saw something so incredibly clear I looked up so fast. What I saw was a white figure walk from the bottom of the stairs through the living room door. Wondering what it was, I went into the living room. Nothing (I was the only person home at the time).

This house has never had any paranormal things happen before so I am not sure what happened. I started to wonder if I caught a spirit ‘crossing over’ using that little space as a ‘doorway’.

Again, I apologize if I am using the incorrect terminology but I would really like to know what may have actually caused it.

Does anyone have a reasonable explanation?

Hi, I’m only 16 and I’ve only just started to experience some crazy stuff In my house and I’m clueless on how to stop It. It kept me up all last night and I even slept with the lights on, which Is completely unlike me.

All my life I’ve been told that I’ve had spirits around me and It’s been explained to be my family seeing me due to them passing just before Liam (my twin) and I were born. Which helped a lot, knowing they weren’t around me while I was sleeping to hurt me but to just visit me. My mum has experienced a lot with ghosts and spirits and even feeling her soul/spirit leave her body and float above the bed during her coma that lasted 2 weeks and she claimed It felt like a nights worth of sleep.

My mum and I love scary movies and we have a strong bond over scary stuff. My family believes In ghosts and the passed life but they don’t seem to believe me when I tell them whats happening to me. We moved Into our house 6 months ago. The neighbors say the family that used to live here were very negative people and ended up getting a divorce which lead to the house being up for sale. So we already knew the house had negative vibes. But recently I’ve been experiencing stuff happening. It seems to be only happening to me and me alone. I told my mum and she looked at me like I belong In a asylum.

My experiences involve hearing heavy breathing In the hallway and knocks at my door. I stay up studying around 2 AM and I usually check If everyone’s asleep and I also go to get something to eat. But I now avoid going out of my room after everyone’s asleep because every time I walk back to my room, I can feel someone or something around me, Standing there and breathing heavily.I always bolt it to my room because I’m very frightened after the movies I’ve watched. Lately I’ve been hearing knocks at my door. And at first, I checked who It might be but after a while, I gave up on checking because every time I’d check, No one would be there.

At first I thought It was my siblings playing tricks on me but I checked and they are always fast asleep by 10 PM. The other night It happened around 6:30 Pm and my mum was up and I assumed It was my twin brother mimicking me after I had told them the story of me hearing knocks and hearing heavy breathing. So of course I laughed it off and toke It as a joke but than It kept knocking… I than got up and told mum to tell him to stop mocking me and trying to scare me but Mum said no one has gone pasted her room to get to mine. I asked her If she heard the knocks as well and she said “no one else Is up and I’ve heard nothing”…

I’m to scared to say what’s on my mind and tell It to stop or ask what it want’s from me because I’m scared of the reaction or response I’d get out of what ever It might be. I need your help, I have no clue as to what It might be?

I don’t know weather a Ouija board is out of the question or weather its just my deceased brother trying to communicate to me or weather It’s a sign of death coming my way. Feel like I’m going crazy trying to prove to my family that Its real and not just lack of sleep because It’s the reason I’m not getting sleep.

I’ve always been more “open” to paranormal experiences throughout my life. I’ve had many moments growing up where I’ve seen things or heard things and even felt things push me before. But, it had been years and years since I’d run into anything. But, my husband, 7 month old daughter and I all just moved into a house a few weeks back. I noticed when we first moved in that the master bedroom and bathroom seemed to be almost infested with flies.

My first thought threw back to scenes from Amityville Horror and I tried to pass it off as all the flies must have gotten in because we had so many doors open while moving in. Anyway, they all die off but then new flies just take their place, so its like a graveyard of flies in my bedroom and bathroom, with fresh flies all about. They arent buzzing around though, that’s whats odd to me, they just sit up on the walls and ceiling. I dont know if any of that is related to this next part but wanted to put it out there.

On to last night’s events… I woke up in the middle of the night to a sound, I’m not sure what the sound was, but when I opened my eyes and they adjusted to the darkness, I saw a person, wearing white, standing a few feet from my daughter’s crib (she sleeps in our room). I immediately froze, heart racing, as the person moved towards her crib, and then leaned over it, as if bending over the crib to look down on her.

I tried convincing myself it was my husband checking on her. The person turned and walked away, out of my range of sight in the dark. I immediately nudge next to me, trying to see if my husband was indeed out of bed, and fright came over me when I realized he was still next to me. I shot my gaze back towards my daughter’s crib and saw the person standing over me, moving closer.

I screamed and closed me eyes and started hitting my husband to wake up. I told him there was a person in our room, between the bed and crib, he lunged out of bed, and got between me and the crib and was in an attack stance in an instance. He kept asking me where they went and I couldn’t see a thing in the dark, so I turned on a little light near me and shown it around the room but we didn’t see anyone. I was convinced this person went into the bathroom or closet. My husband turned on the main light in the room, loaded his gun and proceeded to clear the bed and bathroom, followed by the rest of our house. All doors and windows were closed and locked. The cat was still sleeping on the couch. No disruptions to the house, no broken windows, no person, anywhere. I was hysterical, crying and insisting I did see someone. I was so panicked, I started throwing up.

Eventually, he calmed me down and assured me no one was in the house and that we were all safe. But, that’s because he firmly does NOT believe in anything paranormal, whereas I DO believe, so once I knew it was not a living person, I KNEW it was something else that I saw.

I know I was not imagining this person. I was fully awake as it happened and not under the influence of any drugs or alcohol. I went today and bought some basic protection symbols (crucifix, rosary, some medals to wear around my neck, etc) but I’m wondering if there is anything else I can do to help ward this presence off?

I didn’t get a violent or angry vibe from it, it just seemed like it was looking down on baby, and then me. But, I still don’t want it around! Help! What can I do? And any tips on talking to hubby about this, since he’s a major non believer?? THanks!!
