It didn't sound like my, "psychic radio," turning on. It was loud enough to jolt me awake.

I then felt a cold spot on my left side. I looked To my left, but saw nothing/no one. I accessed my EVP app, which went crazy.

It's kind of a guide to all those paranormal shows, tours, etc. that are popping up. What's real, what's crap, etc. Of course I use the term "real" as in "not some weird magic trick to impress the kids & old ladies."

Paranormal Pandemic, it's available as an ebook too.

I mean, it was 24/7 since Christmas day. So bad was it, I couldn't breath well- it was like I was sitting right next to someone actively smoking and blowing it in my face. Last night it was so bad I decided to put cologne on my upper lip and hands so when I tried to sleep, I smelled THAT instead of smoke. This morning at work at 4:30am I decided to take action. I simply said aloud at my desk- 'whoever you are you can leave me now. I'm okay, I'm living my life as best I can, and I want you to leave me now.'

I was just taking a shot at this, realize. But from the very moment I finished that statement, the cigarette smell vanished- upon my first breath. Ok, so I kept on breathing and nothing- no more smoke. I breathed deeply and smelled all the normal smells of the office- smells I hadn't smelled in a week. I went into the office kitchen where the cigarette smell was bad and it is now gone. As I type this I'm checking my sense of smell, and it's still clear! I believe now this was absolutley a spirit. Who, I don't really know. I can make guesses but it would be just that- a guess. But this spirit stayed very close to me during this time, literally taking my breath away at times from the overwhelming smell of cigaretts. I really think I picked it up at work and it followed me home because it was bad there too. I will be closely 'smelling' the situation further, but all is clear now and I believe it will remain that way- I can feel it. All in my head, no pun? I don't think so. This is a very real deal for me- I made a spirit move on. I understand that it can be as simple as that to do- just tell the spirit to move on. And it has. Thank you spirit. And now, I can continue to re-evaluate my whole opinion on the paranormal, as I have been doing this past year. More and more, I believe spirits are among us. One sure was with me!

Over the last 50 years dozens of pet dogs have leapt from the 50ft bridge for no apparent reason, usually on clear sunny days. Each of the dogs jumped from the same spot between two parapets on the right-hand side. In 2005 the problem was so bad that 5 dogs jumped to their deaths off the bridge within the space of 6 months. The SSPCA ( Scottish Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals ) considers the matter a 'heartbreaking mystery'.

Many theories have been proposed to explain these peculiar circumstances. Some people believe that the dogs have jumped because the bridge is haunted, they they were perhaps lured by an otherworldly scent. One story suggests that in 1994, a local man threw a baby from the bridge because he believed him to be the anti-Christ. Celtic mythology also attributes an otherworldly feel to the area with Overtoun being considered a 'thin place' between Heaven and Earth. Some say that dogs are able to pick up on these vibrations and that this has been leading them to an unfortunate and untimely demise.

In the past 50 years, about 50 dogs have jumped to their deaths from the exact same spot on the 100-year-old Overtoun Bridge in Milton, near Dumbarton, Scotland. In 2005, five dogs had jumped in a span of just 6 month.

It was n night and I had decided to read a Halloween book,"Dance with the Devil" to help get in the spirit of things. Well my husband had gone out to celebrate with his friends and had left me and our young daughter alone, thats why I was reading the book. She was watching scary movies on tv, like "Its a great Pumpkin Charlie Brown" , any way we live back in the woods on 10 acres in the country and it gets pretty dark at night and there are a lot of strange sounds from the wild life. coyotes, owls and such. But I heard a woman scream bloody murder, then again, So I turned the lights off, grabbed my daughte and told ger to be quiet and I tripped over a potted plant in the dark and fell trying to get to the window to peak out. Well I saw a huge bon fire in the woods and shadows of people moving around the fire. and a woman screaming again. Just llike in the book ~They were going to sacrafice a woman to the devil!!!! I ran grabbed the phone and was going to call the police when my husband finally came home. He felt bad leaving me alone on Halloween. Well I was babbling to him about the devil worshippers, when he called me nuts!. He said it was only our neighbors having a senior citizen Halloween party in the woods back by us complete with a huge bon fire.. He had almost ran over one of them when they appeared out of the shadows in front of his car and they explained to him what was going on. boy am I glad Ididn't call the police on them. And then to the next day while raking leaves I found a fake head ina pile of leaves, guess a dog or raccoon had buried itin the stack of leaves. Not funny as I was already a wreck from the silly book and fright they had given me. ]]> Paranormal and the Unexplained Indigo http://www.halloweenforum.com/paranormal-unexplained/123089-something-creepy-our-woods.html Ghosts of History http://www.halloweenforum.com/paranormal-unexplained/122615-ghosts-history.html Sun, 21 Oct 2012 17:41:27 GMT I was just looking at Yahoo News and they had this article up about "Ghosts of History." This isn't directly Halloween related, but these photos are awesome. I thought I would share anyway.

I know yous guys will understand and appreciate how I am feeling just now. I love Halloween and can't wait for it every year! I always have little projects on the go as I do just now. I am on the forum at least 3 times per day but not since Tuesday night.

Myself and my wife have lived in this house for 3 and a half years. I was in the house everyday for 2 weeks at the start to decorate and one small example of the unusual things happening is I was painting a wall and a brush which had been leaning against the other wall for about 3 hours just fell over. I kept hearing the front door opening and closing and when I would go to see who it was no one was there, also loads of unknown noises. All I remember is how many un-explainable things that happened in those first 2 weeks. Anyway I never thought anything at all about it. After we moved in for about a year we kept getting mail for the guy who lived here prior to the young family who had just moved out to a bigger house, his name was David, when me and my wife would be leaving the house we would hear loud noises coming from different rooms in the house and I joked to her once that the guy who lived here prior to the previous occupants (the young family) must have died and was haunting us so when ever these things happened we would shout things like "thanks for that Davie" and "Keep it down Davie"

I honestly never believed in anything paranormal at all even with all the joking, we simply put it down to natural things. More so recently we have heard the door to our daughters room opening while we sat in the living room, she is 2 years old and has on many occasion got up and came in, we started to hear her door opening and would get up to put her back down to bed but it was not open, we always went in to see if she had been up but she would be sound asleep, it was happening more and more and we never thought anything of it, we thought we must have been hearing something else although we knew that was exactly what we were hearing.

On Tuesday night I came home from work at 1am and about half one while still chilling down on the sofa I heard my daughter crying, I went in to her and she must have been having a bad dream so I settled her and told her it was OK and to go back to sleep but she got more upset so I asked her if she would like to come in to mummy and daddy's bed which she said yes to, I took her in to bed and thought now she's in the bed there's no room for me so I decided to sleep on the sofa. I got the spare blanket and settled down to sleep, we always pull her door fully closed when she's not in the room to stop our cat Chewy going in to her room, (he likes to sit on her window and look out) I was woke up at 6am by the sound of her door opening but for some reason I felt like my body was in shock. I was stiff and had to try to move, it was a wired feeling but could have simply been a lack of sleep. I got up thinking either Chewy had managed to push her door open or she had went back to bed. The door was still closed and I looked back in to the living room and saw Chewy sleeping on the sofa. I went in to her room expecting to see her in bed, she was not there, I closed the door and went in to our bedroom, she and my wife were sound asleep. I got back on the sofa and as soon as I closed my eyes I felt really unsettled which I can't explain at all (lack of sleep again) I felt so unsettled that I decided to put the tv on. I sat there feeling totally wide awake watching tv. I was as close to the living room door as could be and my daughter would have to have walked by me on the left to go back to bed. 20 Min's later with the tv volume at number 1, the lowest it can be I very clearly heard my daughters room door open. (it rubs the carpet btw which is the sound we hear) I looked to see something and looked at my cat who was still sleeping. I did not see my daughter and felt so disturbed and freaked. I knew exactly what I heard and it could not have been clearer! I know I heard it. I sat still and majorly freaked out for about 5 min's before I convinced myself to "Man Up" and get up and check the door, it was closed and my daughter still asleep. When my wife woke up at 8 I said to her I had been really freaked out and had not slept. I told her what had happened and she looked at me with the most serious face, I said to her "whats up?" and she admitted to me she had got up twice to the same thing while I was at work, both times our daughter was still asleep and the door closed. I phoned my mum about 9am as I needed someone to talk to (my wife and daughter had left for work and nursery) I asked her if she had ever had anything paranormal happen to her in her life and she of course asked me why, I told her something had happened to me the previous night and it had really disturbed me. I did not tell her anything else, she said 3 things had happened to her in her life and that the last thing was 6 months ago when she was staying at my house for the night to watch our daughter she had heard my daughters door open and then loud adult foot steps in the hallway, she got up and the door was closed. I told her the exact same thing had happened 4 times within 24 hours and she admitted that the reason she suggests that our daughter stays at hers every time we ask now is because of that experience and that she felt something very wrong in our house. I had noticed that she always says for her to stay at her house but never knew why and never bothered at all.

I started to think about all the previous things that had happened and one thing it particular which was about 2 month's ago I was sitting on the laptop on the sofa, I heard my kettle starting to heat up, I had not been in the kitchen and looked at Chewy who was lying on the window ledge. I thought **********! and got up to check it thinking how much of a fire hazard it was that it had a fault and that I was glad it had happened while I was home. When I checked it the button had been pushed down which made no physical sense, it needs pushed on. I said to my wife we needed a new kettle and then when we were shopping for one I thought to myself I would rather keep it for the meantime and see if it happens again but to unplug it everytime we leave the house. I told my wife I didn't like any of the kettles for sale. It has never happened since.

I have been so unsettled I contacted a paranormal investigator who told me they were very busy and would be in touch soon and that ghosts will repeat steps in the house which is probably why I hear the door opening and the front door opening and closing and not to worry that it is easily resolved. They asked me to find out the history of the house and the previous occupants while I am waiting on them to be in touch. I would just like to mention also that the investigators are a registered Scottish charity and do not charge for their services.

Since Tuesday I have hardly slept and everytime I walk my head feels fuzzy and dizzy, I am so so unhappy and feel desperate for help.

I asked the neighbor next door if she could tell me about the guy who lived in the house. She asked me "why whats happened?" which was weird. I said did he move out and she said no he died. I said did he die in the house? and she said yeah she and her friend had found him dead on our bedroom floor and that he had lived in the house since 1990.

I feel like crying, I have not told my wife any of this and she seems quite relaxed, she has not mentioned anything at all and I feel like I have the weight of the world on my shoulders! I can not concentrate on anything at all and spent most of last night looking at campervans for sale on Ebay thinking that if I stay in a campervan that it will eliminate any chance of having to live like this again. Even after the investigators have been I will still not relax. And to make things worse my wife wants to split up. I asked her if she was happy to stay in the house and she said she is so I know if I leave I can get away from it but my daughter may start to experience things as she gets older and that's the last thing I want. Thanks to you all for reading this, I have went on and on but I feel like I need to talk to you guys about it. I feel like we are one big family on the forum who understand each other. One of the complaints my wife has against me is that I spend too much time on Halloween things and not with her which I can honestly say is not true. I never ever do anything when she's in the house as she complains.

Thanks to you all. ]]> Paranormal and the Unexplained Jeeromonster http://www.halloweenforum.com/paranormal-unexplained/120946-completely-lost-interest-halloween-due-finding-out-we-have-poltergiest.html
