EXPERIENCE AND REASONS WHY YOU BELIEVE

Twightlight: My mother passed away in 2000, two weeks after that I heard her calling my name very clearly and loud. When my neighbor passed away I heard her dog bark and my dog started barking this happened at the same time she died. When my beloved puppy died on Saturday,June 20,2009 I was in the hospital around 2:30 am, I heard my puppy growl like a little wolf (he used to do that sometimes)then I heard his father bark. That afternoon I told my husband about it, he didn't know how to tell me that Baby Rudy had died. My daughter told me the news on Monday. He was saying good-bye to me when I heard him on saturday. Still this day I sometimes see his shadow and feel his presense.

□Zombiiε□: Since I was eight pretty much I believed in spirits and such. Before that I thought they were just stories in movies but then me and my mum moved into the house we live in now. And there is only two of us here but strange things have and still do happen. Like on the hottest day of the year one particular corner of the kitchen is freezing cold. When I'm alone here, I feel like I'm being watched and have seen an older man standing in the kitchen. If I blink he's gone. And I'm terrified to go near my mum's room but don't know why. Though I feel there is more than just the older man here but he's like a guardian of some sort. I once thought he was my father because he died when I was three and I don't remember him. But then again he never showed until I moved into my house I'm in now. Its strange.

fireangel83: i first started to believe when i was about 9 or 10 living in what my brother and i called the blue house... it was and still is the most creepy house i have ever set foot in.. My best memory of this house is when i awoke one night and walked to the bathroom and to find a lady in a pink flowing gown with brown hair floating in the hall looking at me. i was terrified and the only way to my parents room was to run thru her. i did. i thought that i may have been dreaming it up but as i have gotton older i know better. I have seen some really strange things and it only raises my curiosity.. i love the paranorml and enjoy reading up on it studing it...

weather234: l too heard my mom call my name a couple of months after she died..woke me from a deep sleep...l have seen 2 ghosts..the first one was of a young girl about 10 years old...l was staying at my sisters in toronto and she and my niece had told me that there was a ghost of a young girl and l believed but did not believe because in all the years l was there she never appeared to me...but one night l was just about to fall asleep she appeared at the end of the bed..just looking at me...thought l was seeing things.. closed my eyes still there..she was there a good couple of minutes l think then just poof she was gone...l did not run out of the room though l was too scared and l would have had to run through her...my heart was beating out of my chest..told my sis next day and described her and it was the same girl...saw my 2nd one just last week..l was lying in bed awake at about 6am and looked into my diningroom and there was a man standing there in side profile...l can describe him too a T..l said in my head am l really seeing this and then poof he was gone...l know l saw it but he did not scare me.

Twightlight: I recently started thinking that my mind was playing tricks on me. Getting depress and crying when I think of my dog Baby Rudy who was 11 mths when he died on June 20,2009. Two weeks ago I was waking up and saw 3 dogs on the dog's stairs in a flash i( I have 2 other dogs,Baby Rudy's parents) Susie, Rocky and BabyRudy; I quickly rub my eyes to see clearly and only there on the stairs were Susie and Rocky. Also at night when I'm sleeping I feel the bed shaking when any of my dogs are scraching; I open my eyes to see if is Susie or Rocky, neither one of them is on the bed. I see Susie playing and barkin at Baby Rudy's pillow; I believe she sees him too and also Rocky. Is funny because I never told my daughter about all this until today when she came out of my room looking like a ghost. I ask her what was wrong and she told me "I just saw a dog in the room". Susie and Rocky were with me and my granddaughter during that time in the livingroom. I ask her was it a big dog and she said "yes" and I showed her a picture of Baby Rudy from my cellphone and I ask her was it him and she turn white again and said "yes" please I don't want to talk about it anymore. You see my friends, my daughter hasn't seen Baby Rudy for a long time she didn't remember how he look plus last time she saw him he was smaller. Baby Rudy was a big puppy when he died. Now I know that my mind wasn't playing tricks on me, that I do feel his presence, that his parents do see him. Baby Rudy was close to me and I will never forget him. I miss him so so much and I will always love him eventhough he is gone Rest in peace my Baby Rudy..

MaThinker (M.T.): Very very interesting to read ur personal accounts. Thank U for sharing ur experiences. I have always had an interest in these things, as i am spiritual.

weather234: l had a cat named ginger from the time l was 3 till l was 13...he was my cat...he died one night on my moms lap and l was not told about it...The next morning l got up and he was there as usual and l fed and petted him as usual...Went to school for the day and when l came home my mom told me he had passed in the night...l told her it was not possible as l had fed and petted him that morning...l was very upset with her and my brother and sisters for saying such a thing...she finally had my brother take me to where he was buried and bring up the box so that l could see...l knew then and there that he had come to say goodbye to me..and still all theses years laters l have not forgotten...in fact l went to a medium a couple of weeks ago and my dad brought up my cat ginger and that he was with him...even gave the name Ginger...

Twightlight: Can you believe that sometimes I still see in a flash my dog, rest in peace Baby Rudy. (see top story). TODAY AT 5:15 AM, I was in the kitchen making coffee and when I saw in a flash walking by a dog same color as my dogs, I had a feeling it was Baby Rudy so to make sure it wasn't Susie or Rocky, I went to check my bedroom and they were sleeping; I started to cry it was my Baby RUDY..

MaThinker (M.T.): The fact that Baby Rudy is still around in spirit form shows he still exists ! We are souls/spirits embodied in physical bodies, and when the physical body is worn out, the soul/spirit leaves but the consciousness still exists. The fact that he is around is because of the great love that is shared between u all, between Rudy, U and Rudy's parents. So dont fear and dont feel sad. There is a time to be born and a time to die. (Ecclesiastes).

drkangl79: I too have seen many spirits. It started when I was small and saw my great grandma stop at my bedroom door. She was in a nursing home. Anyhow it scared me so bad I hid under the covers. My brother was down the hall and started to scream. He saw her also. My mom got a phone call about 15 mins later to say she had passed. After that I was interested and saw a few other things. I got older and started spending a lot of time at the Peoria State Hospital, when you could still just walk in. Look it up, it's a very very active site. I loved it most of the time allthough it carries a very overwhelmingly sad feeling most every time I go. I've heard voices and seen apperitions too many times to count. I've been pushed. I have great photos and evps. I have participated in many hopuse cleansings and love what we can do. it is very fullfiling and ifeel very fortunate.

eternalstar: Ok, gotta warn you I am going to end up typing alot and this isn't even going to be all of it either..
The first thing in my life that I saw was a hand in my mirror when I was 5 years old (I saw it again in the mirror when I was 10 or so). The second time was right after my grandfathers death me and my cousin were sitting up on his bed laughing and playing around, we were about 7 years old at the time, I was about to be 8. And all of the sudden my cousins face went pale and froze and she pointed into the hall and when I looked I saw it too, it was a shadow figure of a man tip toeing, stopped looked both ways and tip toed into my grandma's bedroom. Now note that this is Washington D.C. there is no need to tip toe outside in D.C. because of how loud it is. We both screamed and ran downstairs, grown ups came up and nobody was there, they searched all the upstairs. I just had the feeling it was in the closet I kept telling them to check the closet but nothing. There has been death's in that house in the past my family has owned that house since early 1900's. (1920s I think)..
That's for my childhood, now for my teenage life.. Only 2 things happened though. The T.V. kept turning on/off and I would have to unplug it for it to stop (which could of just been the TV being broken maybe?) and when me and my mother went to move it, I saw something fly by in the mirror. And the other time was I was by myself with 4 dogs on my bed, I was about to fall asleep until I heard a women singing, (beautiful voice btw) and then she screamed for I think 3-4 seconds and stopped, it echoed in my head. I looked down at the dogs and their ears were up.
And finally the long part.. I was 19 years old and lived there until I was 23years old. The house was built in the 1760s and was used as a civil war hospital, people have died in that house before. Previous tenets & people have had exp's as well.. There is still 2 bullets stuck in the wall of the back porch from civil war time. It's down a country road and it was once a farm.
My exp's only: First time I saw something there was; I was mad because everyone else saw and heard things at Antienam Battlefield that day except for me, so when I got back to the house, I went on the porch and yelled out "WHERE THE F*CK ARE YOU?!?!" and all of the sudden I saw something running towards me in the bushes and fast, I was in shock I couldn't move, and 2 people were coming outside to see me and saw it, one of them pulled me back towards them and it stopped. From that point in time, I had so many things happen to me. I always heard heavy boot steps walking back and forth upstairs by the window. Myself and others would hear and see the doors open and shut on it's own. When I'm getting ready for bed I would turn off the tv, and start walking away it would turn on again, i'd turn it off, it'd turn back on. etc. happened to alot of my friends that stayed there. I would hear banging at the wall at night and I couldn't sleep by the wall anymore after that. I woke up to a big guy in a blue uniform pointing towards the bookshelf, I don't know what it meant. We once had done a seance in the house and my friend thought salt around him would help, NOPE! The damn ghost came through the door opened and slammed it, blew out the candle, blew the salt away from his feet, and went out the other door slamming it behind them. It was MAD. and my friend was freaked out lol. Every time we would go in the backyard we would hear people, so we took a tape recorder and we got an EVP. The EVP (electronic voice phenomenon) was shouting "GET THE GUN".. I had a friend that saw a tall slender soldier on the top of the stairs before, I've had another friend see the same figure but walking past her into another room, she saw it as so real that she asked who was over besides them. I was threatened by a young pale face black haired teenager saying "__ are next" I would say more but I don't have enough characters to type in here. Msg me for more

Twightlight: If I was you; I eould carry HOLY WATER and when I start or feel things I would splash some water where the entity is at and pray for them. I will message you for more

Dasvide: i grew up in a house that had at least five spirits and never learned to disbeleve or fear them. i still have no fear of the dead or of death. its just a part of the world around us.we always called them gardians or protectrs. (yes my spelling is bad . one was my grandfather on my fathers side, he died 3months before i was born and i can tell you exacly what he looked like. another was ( i think) my great grandfather who was shot down in WWII, he still wears his bommer jacket. another is what we call the Viking, and he is BIG. i slept in the top bunk of a 3 lvl bunk bed and he used to tuck me in at night. i always felt safe with him around. another was a teen aged girl that loved to tickle my sisters feet at night and pull my hair, i have veary long hair, i thought of her as another sister. the last one we could never tell if it was a girl or boy but was about 5 or so and loved to flush the toilet at night. i never thought it was odd that they were around and was shocked in later yrs to find that people feared them. i have found many spirits in many places over the yrs since leaving home, most i liked some i didnt. just remember the fear is in you, not them. thay have no power that you dont give them. if you feel you need to get rid of them you can with little effort.

StarAhau: I had many experiences encountering spirits, one event started at the age of 3, this spirit was an elderly lady who came to visit me I would be outside playing and would know when she was coming I would look up and see her walking down the sidewalk she wore like the 1040's clothes, only I could see through her, I wasn't scared of her for some reason I knew she was friendly and she would sit and talk to me and she would ask me to remember this or that whatever she was thought was important for me to remember. Then one day she came and said she wouldn't be back and I remember I felt sad at her comment of her leaving. I watched her walk down the street with her hat and gloves.

Twightlight: STAR I was told by this SPIRITUAL lady that we all have a Spirit THAT WATCHES OVER US...

StarAhau: Twightlight,
They are called spirit guides that come often do come in at different times in a person's life. A person has a main guide but other guides come in and will work with the individual till a new guide comes in so we may have many spiritual guides in a life time we can also have animal spirit guides who help us along the way I have about four animal spirit guides (camel, spidey, panther and a gorilla) in Native American they are also called animal totems or guided animals. The lady I spoke of in this post was connected to a past life that I had.

Delilah63: I've always believed in "spirits" or ghosts...
I saw one frequently in our old apartment - she was a young girl, about 5'6" tall, long dark straight hair, always wearing a long white gown (sort of like an old fashioned night gown)
at first I thought it was my daughter Stefani - but it wasn't..
I would see her only in the long narrow hallway which led to the 3 bedrooms and the bathroom - never outside of that hallway...
I was never afraid of her, infact I wished I could see her more often...she did not scare me in any way - she just kept walking the hallway....

when we moved to another apt. I almost didn't want to leave because of her, but I did invite her to come with us if she could - or at least to visit when ever she wanted if she was able to

it was several months later in the new apt just one floor up that I saw her again, at first as before I thought it was Stefani - but she was in her bedroom with the door shut...
Stefani has not seen her but has felt her presence in the kitchen...

I hope this ghost visits us again, I miss her and I would love to make some kind of actual contact with her...

I had a bad experience years ago with spirits when my ex husband used to work nights, but will post that another time...it still scares me to this day!!!

Twightlight: Thank you Star for the information...by the way tell me will SPIDERS be a guide for the good or bad connections.

StarAhau: Hi Twightlight
If a spider is your guide then it is always good our guides never steer us wrong. Spider is creative energies that will guide a person.They are master weavers of our creative energies; communications,writings, thoughts. they take the time to develop things and pursue things that are worthwhile in life.

CandyMountains: I got home from school one day in high school. I came home, went through the garage door, shut it and went to the computer. A short while later I heard the garage door go up, then the door to the house open and close, and footsteps across the creaky kitchen floor that stopped when they got to the carpet. I though it was my aunt, she had irregular work hours, and yelled hello. When she didn't answer I assumed she had gone either to the bathroom or back to her car to get something. But then she didn't come back in. So I went out to find her, but her car wasn't there. None of her stuff had been brought in either, and the garage door was closed. I was certain enough that I heard someone come in that I called a friend who lived a street away and searched the house for an intruder while talking to her. When I asked my aunt later she said she hadn't stopped by the house then. But I know something came through. It was also around a time when our house was pretty active, and it seemed like little and sometimes bigger things were happening a lot.

I recently mentioned to my mom the little boy I played with when I was little who lived next door. I was wondering about how old I was when he and his family lived next to us before the guy who lives there now. She said there was never any little kids who lived next door. The closest kid my age was a girl about 6 houses down, or a boy about 8 years older than me on the other side of our house. The dark haired boy I played with never existed, at least not in the way I thought. I remember having imaginary pets, and playing imagining games, but he was not one of them.

will: just last week i had a slight encounter. so may call it coquencidence others may say it was a spirit. me i call it a spirit, especially since 2 weeks before my landlord of the apartment building i stay in, told me about this place having a couple spirits living here. but anyway i was (vlogging for youtube) and sitting at the patio table recording, well across from me there is a small little shed that the landlord stores gardening supplyies. and he keeps it locked all the time with a master lock padlock (the kind that uses the key in the bottom). well i was starting my vlog and all of a sudden i heard a rattling then clunk. and when i looked up the padlock was undone and swaying. kinda got my heart racing, still real cool though. gotta love the spiritual realm!!
