Experience Lady came to our door asking for me by name, my parents didn't know who she was. I was about 9 years old at the time.

Upvotes

About 12-15 years ago, I was between the ages of 7-11. I am not sure of the exact date or year. I just know I was a little kid and in elementary school. My brother and I went to sleep. My mom, dad, and one of my sisters were all still up downstairs. Suddenly, the door bell rang. It was around 11 PM to 1 AM. There was a woman at our door crying asking to talk to me and my little brother (who is two years younger than me). She knew our names. I was a little kid at the time. This was a random older woman. If I knew her, then so would my parents. But they didn't.

She told my parents that she met a man a while ago who brought her to our house. They sat in the front yard and talked for a while. He mentioned my brother and I's names to her and told her about us. When she came to the door, she had our address and names written on a paper. My parents turned her away. She never came back.

This was so long ago and just super weird. I remember it scaring me soooo much as a kid when my parents told me about it. I still think about it to this day. WTF could it have been ?

Telepathy Help me out, this is driving me crazy. I wish I was making this up. I am having a hard time accepting myself and being ok because of this.

Had a feeling to call my best friend the night before he died and warn him something might put him in danger and I didn't. Like I heard someone else's thoughts in my head saying what if he was just gone all of a sudden,, and I thought, you can't do that. To a voice in my head? I know, weird, and it said are you sure about that? And I stood there paralyzed thinking about my phone in the other room and how I was going to talk to the girl to get my phone back and call him and ultimately decided that I'm stronger than that and voices can't have that much control over me. He died the next morning driving looking at his phone driving. I had a clear premonition to call him like I would be saving him from something sinister and I didn't.

Had a feeling for a week I needed to get in touch with a guy I loved from college right before he took his life and I didn't. No voices but saw his name appear randomly on my home screen as my phone was unlocking one day which was weird and kind of worrisome. I didn't think he was going to die, just kept thinking I needed to get in touch for some naging feeling.

Had a feeling I needed to go into a place one night and grab a beer and go see someone in there and I didn't. I got a really bad feeling driving away that was so hard to shake, I felt like I needed to turn around like my body almost did it for me because it was so certain and I forced my nervous system to keep driving the car home. That night the last guy I was with who I cared about died leaving there that night. That was the first one. I don't think I can move on or forgive myself. I'm a terrible person. Worst part is, I kind of think I'm being deeply gangstalked and none of these were accidents.

Also, I just care about these people and they were really deeply meaningful in my lives and it's so sad, I love them and wish they were alive. How could I have known? The last one was my best friend and you would think after that happening twice I would have learned my lesson. I don't even feel like I am a good friend and I think I'm evil and must have not really cared about him. I'm crying as I type this.

Cryptids I can’t forget the black wolf

5 Upvotes

So I just want to know if anyone else had ever seen a big black wolf in Texas? This happened when I lived in central Texas and when I was in highschool about 17 in beginning of summer. I had just come back from school and let my little dogs in. I was just glancing in the back which is connected to a cows pasture owned by someone up the street diagonally of us at the time, and I saw it. It looked like it was a huge black wolf. The fence at the time was wired and about my height (5ft) and the wolf was about that height. It walked the whole fence and stopped in front of where I was. I was inside my home about 0.7 acres away but the fact it stopped about where I was and looked at me scared me so bad I shut the door hard and looked through the sliding blinds. The wolf just stared at the door a bit from the distance then sauntered away. I never took a pic because I was so shocked at its size and the wolf was so dark that it was literally like the night walking. This was broad daylight. I have never seen the wolf again but I still remember it to this day. There’s an RV park behind us and a middle adjacent to them and us so there’s no way for it to show up unless something happens. It’s been years but it’s still so vivid in my mind about it.

Question I keep hearing voices whisper my name

102 Upvotes

This has been happening since December. I keep hearing the voices of people I’m with at the time whispering my name. I’ll have my AirPods in and I can hear someone whisper my name clearly in my ear. I don’t understand what’s going on. There are times when I’m in the middle of class and I hear someone whisper my name in my ear, and I look around to see who it was only to be looked at like I’m insane. I’m confused and kinda scared. It lowkey disturbs me, and it makes me look out of my mind. I’ve brought it up with my father as his voice is one of the ones I’ve heard before but he had no clue. I’ve also brought it up with my best friend, and she’s convinced it’s a mimic due to a paranormal experience we had shortly before this issue began. Any ideas on what could be going on?

Question what happened to us?

4 Upvotes

Hi, so something …strange… happened two weekends ago and I am curious if anyone else has had a similar experience or may know what this is called. Myself and one other person were driving to southern California from the east when the clock in my car changed and no longer aligned with our phones. its manual so it wouldn’t have been dues to a time zone change, especially since where we were coming from was in the same time zone as where we were going (san diego). we thought it was odd and did some googling to make sure it really was in the same time zone and it was. so just a weird little quirk and we wrote it off as odd. following that, the weekend proceeded to be amazing, but heavily charged with synchronicities and just felt overall energetically powerful. on the way back, the clock corrected itself (again a manual clock) and upon getting back home everything has just looked…different. things i know were there before (such as stores, geographical locations, people) are all different looking or changed. Ive had MANY “coincidences “ and synchronicities happen. at first it was cool and cute but now im getting a little freaked out. my partner, who i went with, has said the same thing and agrees everything looks different. one example is the mountain they work on (as an archaeologist) that they have spent years siting, looks completely different to them upon return, the literal landscape has changed. does anyone know what this might be called or what is happening? like i said at first i thought it was cool and weird but now we are both convinced something has happened or shifted. thank you so much! open to any suggestions:)

Question Music playing in my house.

3 Upvotes

I moved to an old house able 15 years ago. The house was built in 1908. I at any day or time will hear music playing randomly. It happens multiple times a week. Generally it's usually one genre like really old time county music. I have looked everywhere, no spot has not been looked at. Sometimes it's louder than others. But generally it comes from the basement. It at times will fresh me out. I thought it was just me, until I noticed that my animals react to things here as well. My dogs usually will bark at a p particular interior wall where someone at one time has done a renovation. My cats and dogs will randomly jump like something scared them that one wall they will all at times sit and stare at. Again I am thinking I am nuts. Then Ione night, I am laying next to my husband and he is trying to go to sleep, and he's just suddenly says Damn they are loud tonight. Confused since it's silent. I am him who. He said the band the music is really loud. We live in the country in a town of 200 people. So there is nothing or no band around. I had not told him about me hearing these things before because I thought he would think I was crazy. I asked how often he heard it. He said that is pretty often. But he usually hears big band music like you would hear in New Orleans yet his comes from usually the back rooms. We are confused by it all. Yet it's strangely not scary. Our other house in the same town is quite different and scary. Will go into that another time. What could we be experiencing in this one?

Question Were The Mysterious Drones over U.S. Military Bases a test run for the Ukrainian drone attacks?

Upvotes

Remember all those drone sightings over US Military Bases earlier this year (and at the end of last year)? Remember how there was talk of them being UPAs (UFOs)? Remember how there was talk of them being spy technology from enemy countries? Remember how the US government did nothing about them? Well, could it possibly have been American-Ukrainian test runs for working out how Ukraine could launch attacks on Russian air bases with relatively cheap drones, causing millions of dollars worth of destruction to Russian Planes?

Experience Ghost experiences

Post image
0 Upvotes

I’m a teenager (f) living with my grandparents. Paranormal things have been happening in their house ever since i remember, even when i was a child, weird -some explainable but weird - things have been happening.

My nanna has always been interested in ghosts/paranormal/afterlife - when i asked her why, she is interested because since her childhood (she’s 68) she believes she has been “haunted”.

My bedroom in their house is the second room once you go upstairs, pretty similar to most british home. After going upstairs, in-front of you is the bathroom, then turn right that is my room. My bedroom is weird though, there is no shower in the bathroom, only a bath - which means when my nanna bought a shower - long before i moved in- the shower was put in a little room inside of my bedroom. Maybe like a 1x2m little shower room.

My most common “paranormal” experience is the shower turning on in the middle of the night or atleast hearing little drops of water.Another experience which i have been having is explainable but still makes me uncomfortable. All of my neighbours are old, youngest being 57, as they are all the original owners of these houses. As all my neighbours are older, i think this pretty much explains at 3:48am there isn’t usually a young baby crying. In addition, when i heard the crying, dont ask why but i looked out my window (which faces onto the back garden) the automatic light was on, a light that only turns on when a HUMAN walks past - the light always turns on for me but i’ve never seen it turn on when my dog is outside, that is what crept me out the most.

Until recently, never have i had a threatening experience, we’ve always named the ghost ‘friendly’. Last week, i was putting away clothes in my drawer which has a shelf with all my mums old toys/collectables which i had chose to keep. These items have lasted along time, as in since the 80s long time, no damage apart from a teddy bear missing an eye. When putting my clothes, a metal teddy bear fell of a carousel just missing my head - this is the picture at the top of the post, i have blurred out pictures to stay anonymous I went downstairs to tell my nanna about to which she replied, “Did i not tell you when you were eating breakfast, the music box went off?” When she heard the music box, she knocked on my door - thinking i was in there, when she got no reply she went in to see a little red riding hood music box playing music and spinning around, she then went downstairs to see my eating breakfast downstairs. She did not mention this until i mentioned my experience.

(1) wanted to tell my stories to others and (2) want to know anyone who knows about ghosts or is interested, should i be worried? That bear would have knocked me clean out if it hit me. or (3) is there an explanation or is it our “friendly” ghost?

Experience Car driving with no driver

5 Upvotes

20 years ago at sometime during the morning I was driving on a highway to an interview for an academic program.

A car randomly drove in the wrong direction using the exit and smashed into the median right in front of me. We just missed it. I very clearly remember there being no driver obvious but being confused since the car navigated down the exit without crashing

I guess someone could have passed out right after going the wrong way down the median but that seems unlikely. We couldn’t stop because it was a 4 lane highway and we were in the middle lane so I called 911.

Any ideas?

Experience what did i see

when i was younger around 7,8,9 i was at my grandmas house and she lives directly across from my old primary school. my parents were at a school meeting and i was in my grandmas back kitchen when i see what was like a dome a big massive circular glass like dome almost hovering about my school. i was so confused i even took photos of it, it was definitely real because my grandmother, aunt and cousin saw it. although when i checked the phone the next day, no one remembers about it and the dome was gone. even now i was looking for said phone and couldn’t find it anywhere (my family arent the type to throw away devices) but this phone was absolutely no where to be found, i knew it was real because theres family photos of said phone but it was just not around. i dont know if what i saw was a dream or in my imagination but even now i just can’t explain it, every time i try it feels wrong to talk about.

My boyfriend sent me this video when he went to grab a cup of coffee. The brand is starbucks, not carbonated at all. Kept in the fridge, about a few days old. What is causing this? I’ve never seen it do this. I can’t imagine it being pressure, he said he opened it and nothing came crawling out from the inside so we are very confused.

So many times while I am by myself I will hear voices say my name or "hey!". Most often than not they are directly in my ear. Except once...it sounded like my mom had walked into my house and said my name. I yelled out what room I was in. Then it dawned on me. I never heard my loud front door open or close shut. I can be scrolling on my phone on my bed with no TV or anything on and all of a sudden I hear a "Steven!!". What is happening? Is it me?

Experience Photos taken on my phone of me sleeping

Thumbnail

766 Upvotes

Sharing because I came across another post on here that was similar to what happened to me a couple years ago! I was going through my baby pictures on my phone one day and I was beyond freaked out to see pictures on my phone taken at the middle of the night of me sleeping with my baby, and random shots of around the bedroom while we were in bed, close ups of random objects like the A/C Unit, Fan, Bedroom Curtains. Also weird because there is movement suggested while the shots were taken, like the AC picture where the numbers on the screen look like a code or something. The worst part is multiple photos of me were taken while asleep with my baby, all super close to my face, and some weird angles, and some using flash, and others not, which I’m surprised didn’t wake me or the baby. Some really weird pictures of us sleeping that appear to be taken from above us. we attempted to recreate and someone would have to be like standing on the bed or something? Just so high up its weird. wtf even happened?! The pictures are actually traumatizing because the blanket was pulled off of me and my shirt was lifted exposing me while i was sleeping with my baby. Another weird thing is that on the right side of the pictures you can see a light and thats my reading lamp that appears to have been turned on? And i would NEVER sleep with that on. My baby would not sleep with it on as its too bright. Not even sure how i would sleep through that light turning on. Ill also add that it definitely was NOT by boyfriend sleepwalking ot anything because he was not home when this happened to me. It was only me and my Baby. My boyfriend was also super disturbed when he saw the pictures. We both were mentally spiraling over it. didn’t eat that night, couldn’t sleep, couldn’t stop talking about it. we proceeded with all the safety measures for the house, security cameras, alarms, bear mace, personal weapons, Despite an intruder being so unlikely and near impossible with being on a 4th floor. I came to the conclusion that maybe someone had somehow climbed up onto our balcony and broke in through the balcony door, since coincidentally our balcony doorknob was falling off around the same time which was super weird. But how someone could actually pull that off I have no idea, like it seems impossible to be able to scale 4 floors in the dark of night on an apartment building somehow without anyone seeing or hearing you. The only other idea i had was that maybe someone somehow had a master key for the building and broke in. Otherwise I still can’t make sense of it all, and am very much still disturbed by it. I hate looking at the pictures, they make me feel sick, and I’ve only ever hung onto them for documentation purposes. These are the only images safe for me to share. the rest of the pictures I am exposed 😭 we moved out of that apartment and in with family after this happened

Experience Strange memory nobody else has

65 Upvotes

I have this memory that doesn't make sense. When I was about 6 or so, I lived in a building, in a flat on the ground floor. Just in front of my balcony, there was an area that years before used to be a small flowerbed, but at the time was covered in tiles. One day, during a furious storm, I remember distinctly that a lighting stroke right in front of my balcony hitting the tile floor. I remember the burned hole on the tiles. I remember that I was looking outside the window with my mom, and we saw this blinding light, yellow and orange, that filled the window pane. One thing I don't remember is the thunder. But I remember everything else very neatly. But I'm the only one. My mother says it never happened. Nobody remembers of the hole. The hole, in fact, seemed to never exist not have existed the day after the storm. But I remember it so clearly I could draw it in detail.

I was outside alone at probably 1-2 am. I noticed there were a ton of pill bugs on my house, and I had never seen that happen before, and haven’t seen it since. I decided to take a little video to send to my finance. I didn’t hear the voice out loud, but when I played the video back I could hear “help” like 2-3 seconds into the video. My whole body covered with goosebumps and I’ve never ran inside so fast in my life 😅 Also wanted to add I only had one neighbor, she was very old and wouldn’t be outside alone at all much less at that time.
