Hello, Ive had many non possibly beetle related experiences in my life. im loving the thread, only on page 6 so far but in the next few weeks ill get through them all. ill briefly go through some of mine.
The scariest one was when I spent a week at a dorm in the country, it was in an old castle and i was with all strangers. it was a summer camp. So there was two per room and i was stuck with a 10 year old. One night while he was sleeping(I know because he had the most annoying snore that wasnt too loud but enough to know he was fast asleep), i could hear footsteps on the stairs and that in the hall. the bathroom was right next to my room. i could than hear the taps going on and off. This was really weird as it wasnt just one tap but many taps being turned on and than off. So after that my room door started creeping open and i could just feel a coldness going from the far end of the room towards me, it was as if a draft was just going towards me and no where else. i could sense eyes moving towards me. I freaked out and woke up my roommate. when he awoke i could feel nothing else. I closed the door and wasnt able to sleep for the rest of the night because of the foot steps in the hall.
Another odd experience I had was with a friend of mine. We were roller blading in my drive way and went to my garage to take them off when we had enough. There we say this blue mist just floating around going from one side of the garage towards us. We legged it and went inside. So later we were in my room just sitting down and I breathed out heavily the same blue mist we had seen earlier. Both of us couldnt understand what was happening, the mist went towards the window and disappeared.
Ill give ye one last one otherwise this post will take up the whole page lol. One day I was just sitting in my room and hearld knocking on my window. My room was on the top floor of our house and it was a velux so you cant access it from outside at all. So i ignored the knocking as i was getting into my book. Again i hearld the knocking louder and louder. I asked "it" to stop, so there was no more for a bit. Intrigued i asked "it" to knock again, i hearld a knock and every time i asked for a knock id get one. Than i stopped asking and there was no more. Later in the week i found out that my cousin had killed himself that day. Im not claiming that there is a connection between the two or that any of these experience as paranormal activites but i do believe that there is a relationship towards some sort of energy or maybe it could be a spirit. who knows.
sorry for the long post, im enjoying all the stories. I might post another one soon.1 -

Brilliant thread. I've only got to page 10 so far, but thought I'd add some of my experiences here before reading the rest.
- I was about 12 and the riding stables I used to go to had a very old house which was used as a tack room, but we also had a toilet off the side of it. One day I was in there going about my business and as I was sat down on the loo, the sink was quite close to me. Next thing the taps turned themselves on and the water was gushing out. I got out of there quite quickly (and no I didn't wash my hands).:D
- Myself and my husband (fiance) at the time rented a house in Mornington, it was in an estate where most of the residents were elderly. It had 3 bedrooms, one which we used for a spare room (read junk room). If you went in to that room you'd get a real old lady perfumey kind of smell. The door would also open itself, get jammed etc. One day I was quite sick in bed and my OH decided he would give the place a good clear out. When he went in, there were a load of mass cards strewn all over the floor. We certainly hadn't been in there, and nobody else could have. Turns out the lady had died in that room.
- This was either late summer 2007, but myself and OH were after having an arguement and we were trying to sort things out. We were sitting in our bedroom on the edge of the bed with the lights off, curtains open, kind of gazing out and just talking. It was dark, but the moon was quite full. Next thing we saw what you could only describe as a woman in long floaty clothes, slightly off the ground, move across the corner of the garden towards the house. We are out in the country, and apparently there is a lot of history going back on the grounds we now have our house built. She didn't move very fast, but both of us just looked at each other and said Holy F what the hell was that.
I am very open to seeing and experiencing things, however my OH is totally NOT. I am sure I have more, but can't think at the moment.
My Nan has some totally bone chilling stories, brought up in the West in the 30's. She wouldn't be one for bullsh*t, and she'd rarely talk about them, so I can't really re-tell the stories as I've only bits and pieces. I will try and ask her again sometime (maybe after a few hot whiskies)

Well and truely freaked now. As I make my way through the thread, a page in the 20's has mentioned the very small village I live in and paranormal activity experienced by another forum member. I nearly choked on my crisps, seriously random, this village gets mentioned nowhere its so small. lol 0 -

my first experience was in my friends house one summer years ago i was playing the computer when i heard someone calling my name and saying open the door open the door, i looked out the window and saw no body eventually i went to the door and opened it next thing my friend came flying around the corner on her bike, she swore it wasnt her. years later she was telling me this happened all the time when she was in the garden her parents would some out asking what she wanted but she never called them.
The next was in my own house,my sister was going through a hard time said she had a guardian angel who told her everything would be ok.We weren't sure what to believe. Then one evening i was coming out of the bathroom our bedroom was right beside the door was open as i went in i saw a figure standing between our bed i blinked and she was gone, i didnt tell anyone, the next day my sister said that the angel though it was her coming out and thats why she appeared.
My house has always given me the creeps,ive always felt that there was something in the hall way and on the stares just near the top,even as an adult id always run up the top part of the stares. Then one night i was really thirsty but to scared to go down stairs, i used to wake up my sister to go down for me but she wasnt there, then this figure of a man with a hat came into my room took of his hat and said i wont scare you tonight.
and since then i dont feel like theres anything there anymore 1 -
I wouldn't have a shelf with that amount of stuff above my bed. There's always the possibility it could fall!!! Though hearing the voice was weird...think someone was definitely watching over you.
I know it was really stupid but it was a rented house and the shelf was there when we moved in, it never occurred to me that it might fall 0 -

Im very interested in the paranormal, have seen a few eerie things in my time. Was always sceptical but this story I have for you now changed my view on it all.
Id like to read more stories like the one I have put into writing here, this is factual, it did happen and my mate can verify it. Also have other stories of haunted houses and hotels, I'll post them up here upon request.
Enjoy my story, its long but worth it. Please leave feedback
Right here it goes-
Its a very complicated and long hard story to get the gist of. Easier explained in person and while driving on the road in question.
It was around this time last year when a gud friend of mine by the name of Dave who lives up in a place called Kilcorney its about 12 miles from Kanturk and a few miles from Millstreet country park. Its the middle of nowhere basically, its also on a mountain.
Was out drinking one Sat night with Dave, no spin home so stayed at his house. Next day after brushing off a hangover at around 6 o clock Dave said we'll go for a spin to Kanturk and then onto Kilgarvan down near Kenmare cos he was starting working the next day on the windfarm down there, as he is an electrician. To be sure of where he was going he said we'd take a spin down there.
As we left his house we both clearly remembered that there was no one at home as the rest were out and werent coming home that night. The only light we left on was kitchen light at the back of the house and the two dogs were in there.
It was a very cold and really misty night. Mist was falling for hours.
Went to Kilgarvan, onto Macroom and it was about half 10 or 11 o clock by the time we came past Millstreet country park. Turned right as we were going to Rylane (All this shown in map below) past the house thats nearest to Dave's which is over 4 miles away. No joke, this is extreme isolation.
Came to the carpark at the top of Daves road, note he is the only house on this road. The road itself is the width of one car, rarely used raod but very well surfaced.
As we drove on the road (Heading north in the map) As we continued on down the road, Dave was busy sparking up a fag, Next thing i see the man and goes to Dave "Who the fcuk is he out walking at this hour!" We both looked up and realised the man had no torch or reflectors. Dave slowed way down, and said "I Dunno who he is, and I know everyone for miles around here"
He was on our right and we met him at point 1 on the map.
As we past the man he rotated and put his back to us as we were passing at about 5mph. It was like he was a cog and the car was a cog and he rotated away from us so we couldnt see his face, was just like there was a black hole, Dave was hanging out the window and couldnt even see the side of his face or his left ear.
I know old people wear old cloths but this fellas clothes were ancient looking, he was wearing a very long beige jacket that went down past his knees.
Couldnt see his feet as he was standing in grass. Was also wearing a hat.
As e all know beigy colours and grey colurs when wet will have a wet patch that is a differnet colour on the shoulder area but this fella didnt???...
We continued down to daves house in silence, pulled into his driveway and realise more lights were on at the front of the house then we left on. We both freaked!
Dave told me stay in the car and watch to see if the man walks down while he goes in and checks the house. I watched and waited but notthing only mist is all I seen. Dave came out and said the house was ok, dogs were still in the kitchen as we left them.
Then Dave said we'd go down to the cross about 20metres from his house and look around. Did that and seen notting. Next thing we turned to head up the road we seen the thing. Drove up both of us ****less, then seen notting as we went past the place we seen the man. Drove on up slowly and seen notthing I was getting worried that "he" vanished, then I said "I never seen that rock before" Dave said- "Its not a rock its Him!"
He was after going to the other side of the road and was up the road anothe 250metres from where we seen him the first time and was closer to the carpark, but still on our right.
We did the same as first time, crept up to him to look. Yet again he turned as we drove past, wa sstill in the same clothes and not showing signs of wet clothes and no shoes. Also no show from facial features.
Now we were getting very very worried. We kept saying what kind or a person out walking in the middle of nowhere that none of us knew doesnt salute, has no dog with him, has no torch with him, has no reflectors with him and turns away from us when were nearly stopped next to him. This time we met him at point 2 on the map.
We continued up the road and Dave goes "Im turning around!!" So he did, drove down and again I taught he vanished next thing Dave roars "He's there again and other side of the road again!!"
He was hiding behind a bush so we could barely seen him. This time he was on our right again and was standing between point 1 and point 2.
This time we possibly did the bravest thing we've both ever done- Dave stopped the car next to him.
And you guessed it; aswel as before his back was facing us, we both had a clear view of him could see no facial features again and he didnt turn to salute or look at us.
If it was a real person you would clearly turn around as you would have known we were there as he had good strong lights on the car and it was a diesel corolla so fairly noisy.
Dave put her into gear and tore off in the direction of Kanturk.
To get to Kanturk from that area you must go through Kilcorney village and Banteer.
I kept repeating that was abnormal! Trying to make out what it was, whether it was a real human or a ghostly thing. Also said to Dave that any "Normal" person would have a light with them, or a reflector on them, and normally in the middle of nowhere they would salute.
As we just left Banteer proof of what I just said happened. There was a person out jogging, they had a torch and saluted us even tho we didnt salute them. Thats what I call normal.
Dave dropped me home, and lets say we didnt sleep easy that night at all
After that we sorta forgot about it. Then during the snowfall after Christmas last year around February a good gang of us went up to the mountain above Daves house. Otherwise known as Mushra, went up to the carpark on the map as its really deep unspoilt snow. We all had serious craic. We went up at about 6 in the evening, then at about half ten we saad we'd call it a night.
I drove west along the Millstreet direction from the carpark and was heading for the cross with all the arrows on the map to head towards Kanturk.
I was driving on snow and ice so was concentrating very hard, the phone rang in my pocket and handed it over to the passenger Denis a good friend of mine. Next thing I overheard Denis saying "You seen what? I cant understand you! Speak slowy, you see something" I caught my phone of denis junped outta the car.
I was at point X on the map, I could see right across the deep valley and over to see the lights of Daves car at point 4. Dave was panting, I said speak slowly. Then he said "I have just seen it again" I wa slike you seen what. He goes "I seen the myterious fella"
I could see him reversing fairly fast whils on the phone and turning left. Then he said "I was driving down grand and next thing I seen that same fella we both seen in the same clothes standing to the right but about 10metres away from me and you know what Mark, that road had pure unspoilt snow on it and there was no footprints"
I totally freaked, couldnt talk. Then I said I know the snow was unspoilt cos we were at the top of your road up at the carpark, you were the first car down there all day and this evening, you were the first to spoil the flat snow and I goes I know for a fact there was no footprints going down towards your house either.
That night was a Sunday night aswel the night of the snow and the thing was seen at the same time we first seen him two months previously.
For weeks after I was searching through the internet to find out things about the area that might be connected, notthing came up. Then Dave said it to his uncle and he said there was a mass rock up in the exact area where we seen him the three times the forst night.
Before the whole incident we were both the type that did and didnt believe in the paranormal. That night changed our lifes! Will never forget it, can remember it as it was yesterday.
Then last Sunday myself and Rob trebor went to Kilgarvan/Kenmare to the rally. Then the Kilgarvan trip came to mind and told him the story. He came back to my house, and I said come on we go for a spin- I remembered it was around the same time as last year that we seen him. And honestly I wasnted to see him again.
I like to find out how and why things happen but I think we'll never find the answer to this, it will always be a mystery. We seen notthing last Sunday as I think we were too early it was around eight when we drove up and down the road slowly.
Its a real freaky story, sounds like aload off bull**** but if you want I can give you Daves number and you can ask him. He'll say its true. Hope you enjoyed reading and didnt fall asleep half way through it..
Heres the map.
