Have you had any spooky experiences?

I am sorry that you aren’t felling well today; hopefully you will be all well again soon :D.

To answer your question, Yes I have had several but I am so used to them that I don’t consider them spooky. My mother is from Northern Ireland and the women in our family over there seem to be sensitive to these kind of things. I have been that way all of my life and so are my daughters. My mother doesn’t have that ability but her sister does as did my grandmother, her sister and my great grandmother (their mother). Since it is late here, I give you two short family stories that took place in the same house located in Northern Ireland (it is still there but no longer in the family):

My maternal grandmother couldn’t sleep at all one night as a young married woman in the 1930’s and stood in her nightclothes at the window looking out over the nearby bay on a chilly foggy night. She was just staring and letting her mind wander when she noticed a small red light in the distance, floating above the houses. This was a row house that was 3 stories high. The red light floated for a few moments in the distance then slowly but steadily came toward the window where she was standing and then stopped just outside of the glass and stayed there for about 5 minutes, just hovering and staying mostly in the same place. Being in the 1930’s, there were not nearly as many outside light sources and certainly nothing red and small. She thought it was very odd but the next morning she understood what it was when the household received news that her mother in law had died in the night shortly before the time that the light appeared. She always felt that it was her mother in law’s way of saying goodbye to her and my grandfather, her son.

My aunt (married to my mother’s brother, a son of my grandmother above) had her own experience in the same house. She and my uncle had purchased the family home from my grandmother in the 1980’s and were using the same bedroom as my grandparents had used for their own. My grandfather passed away in the early 1970’s in the house after a sudden heart attack. My aunt doesn’t like to talk about the experience as she is uncomfortable around events like these. She also couldn’t sleep one night and was laying in the bed staring at the ceiling contemplating getting up and smoking a cigarette. She was jarred from her musings when she felt the distinct presence of someone sitting down on the foot of the bed. My uncle was sound asleep beside her and it wasn’t him moving around in the bed. She said that the bed depressed just as with someone’s weight. She was spooked and looked up to see no one there but the bed still felt the same to her. She said “is someone there?” and the bed felt like it moved a bit and then she smelled cigarette smoke but not from her or my uncle’s brands. It was the same tobacco smell as my grandfather’s hand rolled cigarettes. She said it was distinctly his tobacco smell and strong for about 30 seconds then it quickly and completely dissipated and the presence she felt was then gone. She thinks it was my grandfather visiting them to say hello and to let them know that he was fine. Because of that instance and it bothering her so much, they sold the house out of the family.

Hope you enjoyed those stories, they are both true experiences. Get well :D.

I have no research. I took some pictures at old cemetery.. Cant give you sites or referances, I don’t even understand what I saw. Nuce hanging in tree short man elaborately dressed people hanging in trees, even seen some in full color . Its as the things move or your seeing through them and seeing more things others old woman holding babies one in each arm man in full garb hat with horns on it. So much. I do not understand and in the pics it does not even look like the cemetery we took the pics at some people see things I did not see. I did not fake these I am I would not begin to know how to do this sort of thing but, I do not understand this I am going to have a hard time even sending any pics for u to see, but they are real.Who can explain this ? I feel like I seen something I should not have seen. In fact where do I send these pics to so u n tell me what is going on. could they have followed us,

I have had some quite strange and unusual encounters over the years and most all of them I did not go looking to have. What I take from such experiences is that this is a very strange world we live in and just when you think you might have a grasp on what it’s all about, you can be thrown a curve ball and are more or less taken back to square one and you have to reconsider everything you have come to know about reality.

I have shared this account in this section more than once and for me it was a turning point in my life and every time I think of it, I am reminded of just what mysteries can exist in our daily lives.

I was working at a hotel several years ago when one evening I was alone just about to get off of work. It was a fairly slow evening with not much going on and I was at the front office in the lobby area. While standing there I heard my name called out in a woman’s voice.She just said “Tim”…I thought it was a bit strange but I heard it none the less. There were no woman working that evening, just myself and a maintenance man so I did not recognize the voice. I was curious and came from behind the desk area and walked into the lobby. There was a television on but it was on a news channel so I really did not consider that as the source of what I had heard.

As I walked out into the lobby , I looked up to the balcony area as that was where the voice seemed to originate from. I looked up but did not see anyone. I walked over to the stairs and went up to see if there was someone on the balcony, which was also the second floor, but when I reached the top of the stairs I saw no one. That I went to all the trouble of going up to the balcony at all stood out to me but I just thought it possible that I was mistaking it all though It still it was curious to me. I just filed it under strange and went back downstairs and did not think too much about it or tell anyone immediately.

A few weeks later I was in the very same area but this time it was a busy afternoon with many people about. I was with a coworker and we were just doing our usual routine . It was at this time that I head the same woman’s voice once again. She just said “Tim”, but this time I heard it over the security radio. I was completely surprised and a little in disbelief. The security radios are not provided by the hotel but the security company and you have to announce yourself and use certain protocols such as “Front desk to security” or “security to front desk” no names are used. I heard the voice plain as day and I even looked over at my coworker to ask her if she had heard it and she said yes. I had not told her of my other encounter so she was a little in the dark. I reached over and called out over the radio and called out to the security guard to ask him if he had heard the voice and he said yes. I had validated my first and second encounter at that time and the mystery seemed to deepen.

It was probably a few days after the second encounter when I was talking to someone at the office and there was a housekeeper who had overheard everything I was saying. She interrupted me and said “oh you just heard Mrs Converse” and right then I was completely intrigued as to what I was hearing her tell me. She said that a Mrs Converse had lived in the hotel several years earlier for several years and occupied the entire second floor. She was an eccentric woman who kept to herself but would occasionally make her way to the balcony to talk to the employees. She was quite lonely and did not have much family but was wealthy enough to afford to occupy a complete floor of the hotel.

Upon hearing all of this I was certain that I had encountered something extraordinary and otherworldly and this completely changed my perspective on what I had come to know as reality. I was not a complete believer or disbeliever in such things and did consider myself a rational thinking person but I was changed that day and to this day I still am looking for answers. Until you have an experience for yourself, you have no idea. Take care.
