Paranormal activity???

Ok, as this thread simply cannot disappear, here’s another. Not spooky, kind of lovely I think. A while back, couple of years, my parents got up in the morning and while Dad was making breakfast downstairs mum had a shower and got dressed. She went to put her earrings on as they were going into town, but she could only find one on of the pair the dressing table. She’d taken them out the night before and as they were a present from my sister she was quite concerned that she had lost one. So..... her and dad scoured the bedroom, on the floor, turned back the covers on the bed and smoothed the sheet, searched the drawers even. Then they extended the search to the bathroom, lounge etc before going out to the car and searching the floor in case one had come off the previous day and she just hadn’t noticed when she went to bed. A couple of hours later mum had resigned herself to having lost it and decided to buy a similar pair rather than admit to my sister what had happened. They were just about to leave for town and mum went upstairs to get her coat from the wardrobe, she went into the bedroom where the bed was still as they’d left it, duvet turned back, and what was sitting slap bang in the middle of the bed on the sheet?? There was only them in the house and it was definitely not put there by either of them.
 
Right, this puts a slightly different possible slant on certain things but is still very weird imho.
I was chatting about ghosts and stuff with a friend the other day. He claims that he had the powers of a medium but hated it, hated being bothered by 'them' all the time, used to get very affected by their emotions etc, and went to someone who managed to block him so he is no longer open to them.
We got onto the subject of "out of body experiences", astral plane projection etc. (I believe in this, when I was in hospital many years ago I remember perching up in the corner of the room, on the ceiling, looking down.) There is a belief that some dreams (e.g. of flying) are actually out of body experiences. The U.S. military has apparently trained people to do "far viewing" which is another name for it.
Anyway, this friend told me that he was asleep the other night and dreamt of going to his parents' house and trying to find his old room, of trying all the doors but not being able to find his room.
Typical stupid dream, yes?
Then he spoke to his brother, who still lives in the house, who said, apropos of nothing, that a few nights before (same night, btw) he thought there was a ghost in the house, he'd been awoken by hearing all the bedroom doorknobs being rattled, but when he'd checked, nobody was there.
Thoughts?

Seriously?! Not scared?! I was terrified. Well, I didn't watch much of it properly (was behind closed fingers...). Just seeing the disturbed chalk or talc on the landing was bad enough. Have you seen the other endings? So scary! I won't be watching the second one!

I believe in this too......

Several years ago I was visiting friends, who 'practice' astral travelling. One of them said the first time he managed it, he 'went' to his friends house to visit, but stopped on the front step and never went in the house...I can't remember for what reason. He didn't mentioned it to his friend. Few days later he bumped into said friend, who said to him...'You only had to open the door you know, I was in there waiting for you':eek:
At their house, clocks would randomly chime and the hands would spin around and around....I saw it first hand. Bit freaky...it had belonged to the grandmother who had passed over, and whenever anyone spoke of her, the clock went mad.

Really? What did it look like? My father saw a UFO once too. He was a commercial airline pilot and was flying at the time at night. He and his co-pilot suddenly saw some bright lights in front of them, they couldn't see anything on the radar, and then suddenly the lights shot off at great speed. They both reported it afterwards but nobody could explain them. Thing is with UFO's, that the government fly a lot of weird craft nowadays... but my dad was always adamant it couldn't have been anything like this because of the way the lights moved and it was truly so fast.

Can I ask all of you who've had these experiences - do you believe in god? It's just, I don't believe in god at all (in fact I'm an atheist) however with so many people having these 'odd' experiences I'm just wondering how it could be explained. I'm not denying they have happened but I do struggle to believe in ghosts since I don't believe in god... even though I'm the most easily-spooked person on the planet! Perhaps those who believe in god are more open to experiences?
 
Oh bumblebee, you'll never get away with that!!!!!

Whilst on the subject of believing in God, I dont, I believe in Jesus Christ and what he taught but not a dude that created the universe and is sitting on a cloud somewhere. But, I do believe in life after death, mainly because of the experiences that have been written about on this thread and personally, because years ago I went to a clairvoyant who told me my grandparents were there. What she told me was startling. I was living in Sydney at the time, had only been there 12 months, so there's no way in the world she'd have known their names for instance. She wasn't mindreading because even I had to think about that she said before realising she was correct. If there isnt another place after we go, then how can that be explained?
 
Urgh we have a radio/CD player which keeps turning itself on randomly and loudly, never had any spooky experiences then this started happening, after I read this thread. And however much I deny it it keeps coming on. (not the same time and it doesn't have an alarm function) :(

I do believe in God as a concept not a guy in a cloud.

We used to have a girl at Uni called 'I-see-dead-people' (pretty sure thats not her real name :D) But you would just be sitting with her and she would say she could see people. :eek: We think fruit loop. But reading this maybe she wasn't :rolleyes:
