So has anyone had a paranormal experience that they would like to share? What happened and where did it happen?

Being an amateur paranormal investigator I've had several. Here's one of my quicker stories. Most are long, too long to type out.

This happened close to 15 years ago. At the time my wife and I were living in a trailer. We were getting ready for bed one night and she was in the bedroom and I was in the other end of the trailer looking for something. I found it and was about to head to the bedroom when I heard a voice that sounded exactly like my Dad! The voice called out to me, called me by name! Well my Dad lived nowhere near us. But I thought I'd check around and look outside. I turned on the outside lights and looked around. There was no one around anywhere that I could see. I never heard that voice again. Very strange. I called my Dad the next day and told him about it. He thought it was strange also. He assured me that it was not him. I figured it wasn't but I needed to check and tell him about it anyway. That was just the tip of the iceberg of the activity that we got while living there. Many other things happened to us. Nothing threatening, but mischievous, and attention getting. I was already interested in the paranormal before we lived there. Had many other experiences in the previous places that I (as had my wife) had lived in before. But after everything that happened to us there we both began to study and investigate. So our hobby of paranormal investigations started there in that trailer.

Oh, I got one more....I was reading & when I was at the top of the page, I just happened to notice a circular shadow above my closet door. I didn't really pay too much attention to it & went back to my book. It took maybe a second for it to register that there's no light source that would cast a shadow on the ceiling. So I stared at it for another second (it happened pretty fast) & these little tendrils came out, it darted across the ceiling & out my bedroom door about 8-9ft away. After it went out, I think I was in a state of shock or something because I put my book down & went to sleep with the light on. Never saw that shadow blob again, but I do see quick flashes of shadowy wisps once in a while in my bathroom, of all places

@whiskeymoon Oh wow! Not sure about that. Have you ever tried to communicate with whatever it is? If it bothers you then you should stand together (with whoever else lives with you in your house. If you live alone then just you then) and make it known that that is you house and you don't wish to be bothered. If you like you can even try telling it to leave, but that won't always work. But it does let the spirit know who the boss is so to speak. If it's a residual haunt, then it won't matter what you say or do. It will do what it wants over and over again just like a tape recorder playing and rewinding itself. It will do it regardless of whether you are there or not. Doesn't care if you are there, it probably doesn't even know whether you are there or not. It just does it's thing. But an intelligent haunting is the spirit of a dead person. It knows that 3atd there and is either trying to have some fun with you or is just trying to get your attention because it either wants some help or it is having fun trying to scare you. Chances are it won't be violent or mean with you. Although intelligent spirits can be that way but most just either want to have fun or want your help. So true to communicate with it if you can.
