I had experience with a ghost like this. I was in my home and it was early in the evening. Suddenly my cabbnets opened in my kitchen and they closed. Then pappers looked like they were throw from my table, but their was no one their, and a window wasn't open. It was awfully wierd.

Anyone else had an experience like that?

I have.

When I was a kid we lived in a house in which some very strange things happened on a regular basis. Doors opening and closing by themselves, items would somehow move around when nobody was in the room, the piano would hit a key every now and then. My dad even seen an old woman standing in the hallway...when nobody was there.

The night before I flew back to Pittsburgh there was the sound of a door opening and closing from my parents' bedroom. I went to investigate and saw that the door which had formerly been closed was now open, which was odd b/c the noise had been of one opening first and then closing, and the only other doors there are sliding doors. Nobody was there, and my dog didn't go bark at it, so it wasn't a person.

Most curious.

In my old house stuff would just dissapear and reaper, or just move someplace.

I believe in them, far too many sane people have observed them for me to think they are all making it up. A friend of mine once told me his old house had a poltergeist in it that would tyhrow things out of the closets, it disappeared supposedly after they had it exorcized by a priest.

Poltergeists generally tend to do much more damage than opening doors etc. They tend to be much more violent.

Maybe someone who has passed on just wants you to notice something...or they are having minor mischeif fun with you. Hell Id do it when I died if i could. ;)

You've seen to many movies. ;)
Poltergeist means "spirit that rumbles"

If memory serves, any spirit or manifestation that affects the physical realm is technically a poltergeist. I could be wrong tho.

Yes, I think you are correct.
Though the name was given to spirits that moved objects, or made sounds. In the Movie "Poltergeist" the name was given a meaning of some evil violent spirit. Which doesn't have to be the case at all.

I have lived in many places that are "haunted" per se. But I also happen to be very intune with energies and such. When I was six I saw the land lords son... The only problem was that when I told the land lord what I had seen he never talked to me again. What I had seen was a younger guy in my window asking for help as he had had an accident and a head wound. When I went to get my parents no one was there I searched everywhere. THe cars were still in the driveway but no one was home. When I got back to my window he was gone. When I told the land lord he asked me to describe the man andI did. He pulled a picture out of his wallet turning absolutly white. He showed me his son who had died in 1958 in a bailing accident and had died of a head wound. I was also staying in the room he had finally died in.

That and a long list of other sightings and descriptions that made people turn white and say I must have known before I got there have happend. I fully believe in the paranormal and super natural. I only witnessed two poltergeists in my old house and they were majorly unnerving. The first one happend when I was alone with my sister and the cabinets and drawers in the kitchen were opend and pretty much everything in them was thrown and strewn about. The second was far more scary. I was alone and in the shower when the door oppend and something broke the cabinet over the sink. I thought it was my mother home early so I got out and found every glass in the kitchen smashed along with the papers in my room ripped to shreds and the mirror above my old dresser with a large hand print and a long crack down the side. Scary as hell but you get used to things like that.

ummm. i've never had anything that scary, but we lived in a house that i'm pretty sure was haunted, where doors would open (even though the were locked) and the house was always frigid cold! no matter what it was always cold! i hated it and that house! we only stayed a few months there and then moved.

I firmly belive in dead walking among the living. Sounds like there is plenty of evidence that says these things are real. So what is holding up the scientists? Why do they still deny the existence of ghosts?

i guess that there is no conclusive evidence...a lot of people have experiences but i guess that no one can prove that they really exsist.

uh dunno :scratch:

Because they are stupid :P

hmm maybe Im thinking of the cases of vibrating beds etc and the connection to pre pubesent girls....Im sure that wasconnected to poltergeist activities.

BTW: I dont watch "ghost" movies. Only slashers ;)

All I can say about any spirits is that I want to believe, but I've never had anything special that I couldn't explain happen. I've always wanted to see something spectacular in my lifetime, and so far I just have to settle for not falling off the planet.

OK, here goes. When I was a little girl, my grandfather died. The night of so after, I was lying in bed, and I heard the door to my grandma and grandpa's room open, and footsteps come down the hall. I felt like someone had come into my room, so I opened my eyes a little bit, and no one was there. Then I felt like someone was hugging me, and kissing me on the forehead, and I got the overwhelming sense that everything would be ok.

Then, when I was at my best friends house sleeping over, I saw a woman in an old late 19th century looking dress, who looked like she was being hung by a noose, and I kept hearing the name John. One night we were having a haunted house, and we hung a doll from my friends door. The doll started turning, and we threw her in the closet, and left her there when they moved. I later was talking to my friends sister, who had talked to a spirit on a ouji board, and our stories of the girl coencided. A girl had been hung in the home that stood on the land where my friends house was by men who had broken into her home, and her husbands name was john. Things used to move in the house, curtains when no windows were open, bottles, etc. There was another ghost who was very angry, who tried to hurt people, and we were all pretty freaked to go there, and no one ever wanted to be alone. When she moved, things seemed to get better, but then one day, I saw a girl standing on the stairwell, and only my best friend and I were in the house, together. She saw her one other time. Also, the upstairs toilet overflowed one time, the only time it ever has. The water leaked through, and spelled out hippies in the cieling. It was seriously wierd. We have all grown accustomed to the spirits though, and have learned to deal with the earie feeling. We even think my dorm is haunted. But my roomate and I try to be pleasant, cause we figure that it is better to keep it on our side.

Try THIS photo. You need to look closely and have your speakers turned up to hear it. It isn't easy to see but look closely at the bottom of the right window. Just about where the laptop is.

Everybody learns the hard way with that one, it just about gave me a heart attack the first time I fell for it.


Never turn your speakers up when somebody says to vaguely like that...

Hmm...speakers...photo...speakers...photo...you need to hear an image?

I fell for it the first time, awhile back, too.
