Paranormal story

When I was 17 years old, my older brother, 3 friends and myself were cutting school and decided to walk around we came across a farmers field of apple trees, we decided to pick some. When we were on his property we came across a small pond with a row boat, we decided to take it out onto the water, when we were out we heard the farmer yelling at us, my brother stood up and fell into the water, we rowed to shore and ran home, my mother was mad and made us take her back to the property, when we got there we found ONLY a small house, the owner came out and told us his father died years ago and the son let the farm fields go dry. There were NO apples and NO water. Yet my brother got pneumonia from falling into the water that wasn’t there.

The Thin Dead Line

I believe in the paranormal, the unexplained incidences that cannot be forgotten. I think there are layers of existence that can occasionally cross or fuse together. I’m sure not all the paranormal stories people tell are true, and I’m sure some use their “experiences” as simple tools for winning attention or sounding important. But there are real moments that make a person question whether something bigger than them is going on. Just because we are raised to deny the impossible does not always mean we should.

A scary ghost story

I was taking a driver’s ed class and we would normally drive around the Hillside Cemetery in IL. One night, my classmates and teacher wanted to drive to Queen of Heaven Cemetery. The story goes that a bride was murdered on her wedding night but people could not prove who killed her or how she died. The mother was so distraught over her daughter’s death and wanted it exhumed. The scary thing is that her body was still preserved and had not deteriorated in the years it took to get her body exhumes. There is a photo of her body on her gravestone once her body was dug up. We drove our car up to the gate right where her grave was late at night. I could have sworn that I saw the large statue above her move freely as if it were alive. I had to sleep in my parents’ room because I was so freaked out.

Believe it or not

I’ve never experienced any paranormal but others have told me their stories and I do believe there is good and bad energy around us.

Do you have your own paranormal story?

Do you have your own paranormal story? Do share. If not, do you believe in the paranormal?

I don’t have any paranormal story other than the sensation of dying or flying in a dream, I constantly have it and love it. Thanks,

Insidious - and the paranormal

I have to say yes I do believe in the paranormal. One night immediately after praying over my two neices and nephew (whom I had just put to sleep in my bed while they were spending the weekend with me), the right lower side of my bed lifted and lowered quickly but gently, about 3 times. I actually was not afriad, instead I felt a warm loving atmosphere. I looked out of my bedroom window and sure enough a full moon was in the sky facing my window. Normally when that happens when I look out, that is a sign from God, reminding me that I am protected, that God is with me and carrying me through no matter what.
