    "Haunted" flat story as hinted at!

    a tulpa? this is a really interesting post....did the depression create the "entity" or attract it, or was the entity responsible for creating the depression? frosted glass in interior doors is not used here in the states, thank goodness.

    Dreaming Of The Dead

    dreams are imaginary dear gran and your friend probably wouldnt want to scare you. and they didn't. you scared yourself. they weren't "in your dream." they have passed on. you created the dream from memories, things you've read, seen, and thought about, and your mind churned that mental salad...

    Bell sound from nowhere

    sound was from somewhere and i bet it was a signal tone from a smart phone. signals can be set for notifications from apps, messages, facebook, email, etc, etc. It could have even been from an appliance, cable box, open fridge door or timer. you are to be commended for not ignoring the...

    Coral Castle (Edward Leedskalnin; Homestead, Florida)

    slight correction. the stones were carved from coral...not bedrock, hence the name coral castle. so while they were undoubtedly still heavy, they were nowhere near as heavy as the equivalent sized pieces of bedrock would have been. ed was an "outsider artist" who had a broken heart, he lived...

    A Few Things That Happened To Me

    A Bizarre & Nasty Haunting

    down boys! maybe he didn't want to give out a lot of accurate personal information to this mob...so far you have dug into the story to the extent of posting real information about a relative of his, finding his house, and then investigating and finding him on flickr, making guesses as to his...

    Voices in the house and other happenings

    i had the same thought, how can you be naturally skeptical and rational and then go to a spiritualist meeting? sounds contradictory. ..but i think the real issue here is with "forteans"...especially and including the poster above advising you to "avoid that crap", his job i guess to be the...

    Protective Male ?

    advice from a witch I would encourage this man to go. Smudge with sage and say some prayers, tell him to go in no uncertain terms. Encouraging him to manifest is not in your best interest. You are not prepared or trained to handle that. Eventually things will go bad. This is a trapped...

    pen behind the ear

    come on people I don't know if this is fortean or paranormal, but it's weird and certainly worth a little discussion and all the poster is getting is a lot of random or scatological comments and some rather frightening and self indulgent photographs. could this be why you've had to repost your...

    ghost on tybee island

    maybe it was just impatient to get out. but yes that was the sequence. I don't think we have any established facts yet about the paranormal. so anything might happen i guess. and in this case did. its a typical charming old cottage i'll look up the address if you like.

    A Man Who Makes My Cats Act Weird

    Remote viewing experiences

    too hip for the room what you are describing sounds more like astral travel or an out of body experience. in remote viewing, you don't "go" anywhere to see clairvoyantly. in fact, you do not "leave you body." yet you can see and describe the places, events and emotions of those far away...

    curious incident

    anathema to forteans the most obvious answer is probably the correct one. since he is such a creature of habit, it might be that he is mistaken about the day in question, and he remembers his pattern. OR- his friend was messing with him/borrowed the phone and left it in the car without...

    Noises Off

    sorry to be such a skeptic, but i think while fortean, this wasn't paranormal. my cousin and sister were staying in a friends unheated cabin one winter in the mountains of north carolina and just like that the buffet cracked, lengthwise down the top. this was new and nice quality furniture...

    this man could have been "an aged wise man" or he could have been "an aged phony hustler." since (i'm assuming) you met him the once, i would certainly not internalize anything he told you. it is very appealing to think our problems are caused by external forces, especially exotic and...

    Moon Gardening (Astrological Gardening)

    the right time there is the right time to do anything. setting fence posts is a prime example. do it at the wrong time of the moon and the posts will always be wobbly, and at the right time the posts will set in good and there will be lots of dirt left over.
