Haunted Places [I Am Interested In the Paranormal]

@SW-User That's a great cemetery story. Thanks for sharing. The way you described it, I envisioned the dog and owner right away. I used to own a dog who pulled and zig zagged in just the same way.

You can post about UFOs here, if you like. I added UFOs and aliens to the poll.

@NotJamieM Yes, I was wondering if maybe because it startled you, that's why you interpreted it as something dark.

And by the way, I make no claim about what I saw.
It may have looked angelic, but I don't feel positive about what it was. Could have been the Devil himself for all I know. 😐

@SW-User conceivably, it might have been something I wasn't even supposed to remember. If there are things that can manifest like that, stands to reason they could have other abilities. I often wondered if it would make another appearance, but it never did, at least to me.

@NotJamieM I've never seen anything like the childhood apparition again. I did have a "dream" or vision in recent years about a cloaked figure with a skeleton face. It spoke to me and said, "Youre in bad shape, but E. is worse. I'll take her instead." I didn't think much of it at the time -- dismissed it as a nightmare, rather than an apparition. But when I saw the newspaper at the grocery checkout that evening, a celebrity with the same name as the person mentioned in my "dream" had died. So... I'm thinking this was what they call a paranormal nightmare, which means that the apparition isn't just a dream.

@SW-User Poltergeist probably freaked me out more than any movie I've seen since. I think it was the first horror movie I ever saw, and it was in a dark theatre. But I think also the whole premise seemed a lit more like something that might actually happen than most movies.

@NotJamieM The concept of dream come true (new house for example) turning into a nightmare is what causes the lasting impression for a lot of us. At the time I saw the movie, I had a job that was changing from high hopes to disaster.

@SW-User I can definitely see that. I think I was more impacted by the feasibility of the paranormal part of it and that the family just stumbled on it in their own home. I've seen a ton of movies about mutants welding chainsaws that get anyone coming into the woods, but that never gave me pause to hike deep into the woods or up a mountain by myself. The concept of it coming for you at home was a bit more disturbing, lol

@SW-User may be you are right as i don't have much idea but i believe that when we think demon we always think a very ugly structure of something bad creature but evil spirits may not even a structure always our mind and not only in ugly shape , they can be exist in any shape looking good or ugly , when I was living in HK i brought an old bicycle from one shop which sold old items , first few days i feel nothing unusual but one morning suddenly i found my bicycle was not in there where i put that under lock and key , i asked my roommates , but they not able to answer suddenly i found it in just out side of the apartment but few minutes ago it was not there , i thought some one might took it and forgot there so not much curious , next day while i was on street with it suddenly and very unexpectedly i feel that someone might suddenly pulling me from behind and i was fallen on street as not much traffic there so no harm , after that again for two days bicycle disappeared and later i found it around , now i was surprised and locked it with a chain , next morning i found that chain was broken in to pieces and bi cycle was found in outside , it's shocked me again and the same day in afternoon while i was on my cycle towards market suddenly someone pushed me hard and i was terribly get off from that and narrowly escaped from fatal accident by a running van passing by a lot scratches and bleeding in my legs and elbow , now i started scared to ride on that but not told anything about it to others , after 2-3 days when my condition became a little better i went to that shop with that cycle and after a long and hard effort there i came to know from the son't of the shopkeeper owner that that bicycle the purchased from a family whose a family member died in a road accident while he was on his way with it , i returned that cycle to the shop and never turn back or think about it so long

@lonelyloner Thanks for sharing that. I'd never heard of a haunted bicycle; your story is unique. One of my favorite paranormal TV shows was called "Haunted Objects"; your story reminded me of that.

@SW-User yea that shocked me lot after that a long i really not comfortable in riding bicycle a long always feel that some one might pulling me or pushed me , looked around always but never that happened again in any others , never heard about that show , thanx that my exp remind you about it

@Originalpost Same. Are you having hypnogogic hallucinations?

I woke up one time punching the air, because I dreamed something came out of the closet and was strangling me.
