    Another one that happened very recently.

    My wife lost one of her earrings. Nothing to creepy about that you say. Well, we noticed it in the car on the way back from a restaraunt we had dinner at, so we went back, checked all around the table, checked the toilets, everywhere we walked, where the coats were hung. No sign, so we gave up hope of ever finding it.

    Fast forward 2 weeks and were packing up all our stuff to move house. Move all our stuff, then a few days later, I do a deep clean of the house; hoover, mop, hoover again and mop again. Another few days pass and I go back to the old house to collect the last few bits; dishes left in the dishwasher, cleaning stuff etc.

    After putting that all in the car I go back in to the house to do one last sweep and what is that I see sparkling in the middle of the kitchen floor? Yep my wifes earring. No idea why it was only then it was spotted. Never saw it while cleaning up. It was like it materialised from thin air just before we were leaving the house for good.

    Sure the earring could have fallen onto a weird part of a coat, jacket or jumper and got stuck there until it fell off one day. I sleep with earplugs and sometimes I get up at night to go to toilet to find I have lost a plug. Eventually find them in all sorts of places.

    Here's creepy and eerily sounding, has anyone ever seen these videos
    https://youtu.be/FHi6LjKuNl4
    It's actually the freakiest things I've ever heard.

    Did you read the comments from the person that uploaded the video?
    I made the sound with ipad gband, and tweaked a bit. Wanted to get similar those russian ****. Picture edited with AE. The purpose beside its fun, tell the people that all this conspiracy/ufo/religious **** that got magnified with the internet is some kind of fake. Wheter or not intentionally, but not what people want to believe. I uploaded this one got million views at 3 different channel in a week, was in tv, etc. Thousands of vids out there, but no real evidence or experience. It tells man.

    I guess he did a good job.....

    At the age of 10, I was scheduled for a huge operation and I was extremely nervous as you are.... so the morning of the op I’m rolled into the anaesthetic waiting area and find my trolley parked next to a bearded man on a trolley, so i say hello and get no response, say it a few more times and get absolutely zilch back..... thinking to myself he’s just rude.

    I lay back on my trolley and a few mins later my surgeon comes out... starts chatting and then he notices the man on the trolley next to me........ he starts shouting for the senior nurse and tells me to turn on my side looking away from the man as the nurse proceeds to pull the sheet over his head.

    I was operation 2 that morning, operation 1 died on the table..... so for a good 10-15mins I was in a room with a dead person trying to strike up a conversation

    Sweet Lord, talk about unnerving.

    Just remembering, years ago in my childhood I was up with my friends close to a "haunted house" and we went in and found dolls heads in there and it was really dark, vibes wise in there, thinking it's all in our heads case we're at this haunted house, so we left as quick as we got in, we got out into the field and I remember these two ppl appeared through the field sign their hoods up and dressed in bock walking in our direction, I booted it under barbed wire, no idea how I fitted underneath it without tearing myself up but I never ran so fast and not a chance I was going to look back. Still have that clear enough in my he's telling the story now. Freaky.

    I was stubbornly waiting to remember it naturally.

    Bad dreams I had as a young boy of 5 years old for a few nights as I was falling asleep. I was waking up crying from them.

    I prefer that myself but I'd never heard of that type of weather phenomenon

    I think the cleaner and healthier you are it's easier to get the bad vibes.
    Im not into pseudo science but a friend suggests that when we're near certain people our atoms fire more, or when we're in a dangerous situation.
    Like a horse stuck to the road and won't go any further.

    Someone who's a lush or drug addict coke head whatsoever won't feel those vibes.
    They're too sick in the head and disconnected.

    Yeah its weird, im not into psuedo science either but cant argue with feelings and a sense of knowing that something is up.

    I remember years ago, after a night out I walking home and met a girl id known briefly from college, she had dropped out so never really got to know her, she was sitting on the street with her dog and I stopped to chat to her, told me she was homeless and had nowhere to go.
    I was drunk so I hadnt noticed anything too off about her at the time, had a feeling in the back of mind to keep walking but was conflicted with wanting to help her so invited her back to stay in mine for the night. It just kind of fell out of my mouth before I had time to think.
    Half way up the road I realised something really wasnt right with her. I tried to lose her but she was stuck to me like glue at this stage so brought her into the house, made her something to eat, the whole time she was in the house I got these horrible vibes from her so long story short I had to ask her to leave the house. I dont even know why I felt that way in the beginning as she was harmless but just got this really untrusting vibe, I was filled with anxiety, it was like that feeling you get when you walk past a group of rough looking teenagers late at night on your own.
    After I tried to get her to leave a few times her hole demeanor changed and she took half a scissors out of her bag, at which point I got my house mate to help me get her out.
    For about a week after she left there was this really weird, heavy atmosphere in the house, it was like, if youve ever gone into a room and felt tension like thered just been an argument, there was this weird, on edge, negative feeling that just wouldnt leave. It was so weird.

    Sounds mad but I do think people carry an energy about them - best way I can think of describing it. Only ever met a few people with one as heavy and negative as hers - she was a heroin addict with schizophrenia I later found out - but everyone has one and you can definitely pick it up from people, it's very much a mood changer.

    If anything, I learned from that encounter to trust the vibes you get from people, theyre usually right.

    This is a real thing: an uncle of mine who was a mountaineer described it - he had seen it and done it.

    I think it needs to be the evening: you stand at the top of a mountain or similar spot with the sun behind you and clouds on the distant sky in front of you, and nothing else between: the sun casts your own shadow onto those clouds and you look like the giant shadowy figure of a person.
    PS It doesn't have to be male, any shape would do the same.

    He said it was awe-inspiring but completely natural. A man who loved the mountains, RIP.

    That instant snap personality change is certainly unnerving even without a weapon.
    Some people have those creepy blank cold eyes to go with that kind of energu or issues or whatever.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,346 ✭✭✭Eoinbmw


    Theres a lot of subtle weird stuff that seems to happen regularly with me!
    De ja vu is common pretty random but i do believe its meaningful but dont understand it!
    Other stuff like having a random memory of something say like a friend you've not seen in ages and the next thing you pass them in the street or receive a text from them weird right but happens too often!
    At home myself and the wife are forever thinking literally the same taught nothing major i guess but every now and then we both splurt something we have been thinking about at the same time having had no discussion previously about it i find that strange but interesting all the same!
    The one thing that i do get freaked over is having dreams about meeting people!
    Nothing bad has ever happened but i have had random dreams of meeting people mainly friends or associates that i have not seen in ages as in months or years!
    Its happened to me 3 or 4 times that i can recall id have a very vague dream a person would be in it and low and behold within a week id bump into them completely randomly having not seen them in months?
    There is something more to this world i believe!

    Someone I used to hang around with years ago slit his wrists in front of me, never took his eyes off me once, they were just dead and cold like you say, no emotions at all. He had issues.

    This story reminds me of the older brother of a friend I had growing up. He used to be obsessed with satanism and dragons. He legally changed his name to drake or something and believed he had dragon blood in him.

    This one night he came to a house party and kept to him self really until he vanished. My buddy and his girlfriend went to bed early and a gang of us thought it would be funny to all run in and do a pile-on on the bed. I was standing at the door and when the first few people dived on the bed I could a hand under the bed. The creep was under the bed of the only lad in the house who had a steady girlfriend.

    I remember going to Turkey with family for a week,anyways some nearby beach in Kusadasi ,hot day fairly mobbed,parents left me and brother go in the water and arse about,great craic we decided to swim in shallow water and follow the tiny fish in packs and had a game see who can catch the first fish,so after a while the odd bigger fish would investigate as when ya move in the sand the fish swarm around picking stuff from the sand below,anyways about 15 mins I actually caught a fish and lifted it out of water to show my brother and he said "that fish has only one eye" I was like "what ?" and looked at it and threw it away,we tried to catch more but failed,so anyways next day we go to the beach and pretty much end up around same spot as before and do the fish catching by hand and I caught another fish after a while and looked at it and it had one eye,I was like "wtf is this the exact same fish I caught yesterday" ! Parents thought I was lying and talking nonsense but what are the chances of that ?

    About 15 years ago I had a vivid dream where I had died. I didn’t see how I died but remember the funeral etc. I remember waking up really petrified. I had to drive to my dads uncles funeral that morning so put it down to that. Anyway when I arrived at the church everything seemed very familiar. The candles, flowers etc. But what really freaked me out was my parents were wearing exactly the same clothes as had been in my dream. But i disregarded it as they may have been wearing them before.

    Then the hymns were the same and the feeling of deja vows was overwhelming. Anyway, the time came when everyone had to go up to touch the coffin. It’s something I would never do but was on auto pilot. It felt liked something from final destination. I arrived at the top of the church, placed my hand on the coffin and then Bam. I looked at the brass plate where the name was engraved and my dads uncle has the same name as me.,so I was looking at a coffin, with everything exactly as my dream and my name was front and centre. I just ran. Never had the feeling before or after.

    Because it only had one eye, it was very susceptible to being caught.

    If it was a flatfish, it would have had both eyes on the same side and none on the other. Normal. (Hint-- it wasn't the same fish...)

    There are some nice weather phenomenon (phenomena?) like moonbows and sun dogs, but the spectre is rather unnerving.


    Oh, just remembered, I knew someone who was sort of chased by ball lightning. It descended onto his wife's head! He's on Boards I think so, er, hi :D

I remember maybe it was the 90's and the I R A robbed my local AIB Bank and I recalled after it had hit the news that I walked passed on the day and thought I saw fellas on the roof, to think now that was I R A men who back then were a lethal gang, Scary to think I seen them when they were hiding on that roof, waiting for night to fall.

    spot on. I live isolated and the rare times I am face to face with anyone, I can sense so much about them. Not always welcome either. Part of it IS body language but it is more than that. Seeing behind the language

    They weren't hiding, they were pretending to be construction workers wearing hi-vis and drinking tea brought over by some residents nearby :pac:
