Has anything genuinely creepy or unnerving ever happened to you?

One of the previous posts reminded me of something that happened when my MIL died. She was only in her 60’s and passed away suddenly at her house. My husband and I lived an hours drive away and unfortunately she had passed by the time we got to the house. After her body had been removed, it was just my husband, FIL and me in the house. Both of them were in the dining room and I was in the sitting room, curled up in what used to be her reading chair. She always had fresh flowers in the house and there was a vase of roses on the sideboard near where I was sitting. It was very quiet when I suddenly heard a rustling sound. I looked up to see some of the petals fall off the roses. I thought it was weird as they were fresh but got back to reading my book. About a minute later the remote control flew off the chair opposite me. There were no doors or windows open, so it was not a draught. I was very close to my MiL and for some reason, I felt it was her.

I have these neighbours. A couple of years ago they had regular weekend long parties, yes I mean all weekend from Friday night to Sunday afternoon. Turns out the party neighbours were taking drugs and were caught out.
Since then they have become eirily quiet. The only time I hear them is when I leave my place when they rush to the peephole in their door. I come home and it's so quiet until the moment I turn the key in my door and I hear a commotion from behind their door. I find it extremely creepy. This has been going on around a year. The door keeper is very odd and I hear him gasp whenever the shared hallway light which is movement activated is lit. They barely leave their own apartment and cover their faces when they do.
Can you be haunted by the living?

Apparently yes.. I know 2 psychics that can "place themselves anywhere".

It is possible.

The context here is a kind of cold war. They were a bit careless with their 'medicine' one night then quickly caught out and exposed. After being confronted by myself and other shareholders they have been closely monitoring traffic near their door and in other more intrusive ways.
I'm weary of them now. Life is too short to play toxic games. There is definitely something wrong.
Can psychics also help by clearing a hidden mental barrier?

About 8-9 years ago I was in Arthur's Quay park in Limerick just sitting down reading while this elderly gent sat beside me making small talk. He asked was I from Limerick and I told him I was but I was living and working in Dublin. He says he loved Dublin because it was "very liberal" He gives me his phone number asking me to contact him if I fancied meeting up for a drink or a coffee. I was too polite to refuse so I just took the number and left.
I headed to Cruise's Street shortly afterwards for a look around and there was the elderly guy again watching me from the Lady of Quimper statue. I got creeped out at this point and cut off onto William Street towards home. He was obviously looking for a boy toy to hook up with. Maybe I should have been flattered but I just found it creepy at the time.

Yes or remote viewers.

I obviously fell asleep on the couch one night to be woken up early next morning with a phone call that i missed. The call woke me but by the time i realised the phone was ringing - i missed it. Anyway as i was lying half asleep on the couch i felt a chill through my body and an emotion i could describe as worry or sorrow . Very soon after I then rang the person back who i had missed the call from to be told my grandparent had took a turn for the worst and it didnt look good that the doctors where doing tests. My grandparent sadly didnt make it..... strangely that grandparent had told me a story years previous of their own odd experience. Heres that story - My grandparent was in bed many many years ago and woke to tell their partner i think your mother has died - this was with no clue or ill health involved. That turned out to be true the next day as my grandparents received a call to say one of their parents passed away through the night. So i dont know if my experience is in anyway similar to what my grandparent had many years earlier - but fairly similar

Hope i explained it clear.

I remember once wondering what time it was and I guessed and low and behold I was right. Couldn't believe it

One night I was in out with my friends when my dad text me and said my grandmother wasn't well. I said I'd come home etc. but he said no there's no need it'd be fine (she was in hospital but would be ok).
I went to sleep drunk and had a dream that my grandmother had died and I woke up and checked my phone. No messages, back to sleep.

Woke up in the morning my dad had text that she had died.
It wasn't creepy, just slightly unnerving, but this post reminded me.

My grandmother believed in the afterlife a lot and would always talk about it.

Enjoy life while you can, don't worry about the future

Hey all.

I didn't really know where to post this so please remove if it's inappropriate.

In the late 90s/early 00s I read a book that contained stories about the Banshee and fairies.

- the book was first person accounts compiled by a male author

- it had lots of people's stories about Banshee experiences and fairy experiences

- it was and A5 book and there were no illustrations

- the author began the book by saying something like "what surprised me about collecting these stories was how normal all of the people were"

- it was NOT a book of myths and legends it was a collection of first person experiences

- it was not the St John Seymour book

- I don't believe it was an Eddie Lenihan book

- there was a story about a truck driver witnessing a fairy funeral procession

- there was a Banshee story about a person hearing the screams of the Banshee and being physically unable to leave the house to check like there was a forcefield stopping them

If there is a more appropriate place for this question, please let me know. If you know what I'm rambling about I would be forever in your debt.

There's a programme I saw recently enough on the RTÉ Player, it's called "Into the Mystic" - https://www.rte.ie/player/movie/into-the-mystic/116449320226 If I'm not mistaken in one of the episodes they were talking about a book, that could possibly be it.

Fryup, no need for that

The book is Paranormal Ireland: A journey into the other side of Irish Life by Dara DeFaoite if anyone's interested!

A story i heard from someone
Apparently a house in south Dublin had some strange goings on. Not 100% on the details but was meant to be haunted. The family reached out for help and the local priest offered to stay alone the night at the house to see whats happening. Next morning the priest came out from the house and his hair had turned snow white - he refused to discuss with anyone what happened.

fryup · 07-05-2021 05:57PM

^^^^^^^^

he bleached his hair?

I was told the story about 20 years ago and the person has passed away who told me. As best i can remember it was near Newlands cross going back a good while now.
And yes i have had a genuinely creepy and unnerving experience - a family member passed away and i felt it before i received the news

fryup · 13-05-2021 11:20PM

for me i might think of a relative or acquaintance for a fleeting moment...and a few days later i hear that they've died:o

I just went outside for a smoke and there was a continuous line of small 'stars' travelling in a straight line from west to east, loads of them, never seen anything like it before, am I drunk or did anyone else see them?

He went down to the sitting room in the middle of the night. When he opened the door he heard "Tea Father" and Ms Doyle was standing there.

Hi. Shame you feel the need to deride my creepy and unnerving event with Bluetooth but my experience was absolutely as described. I'm still not sure what caused it, but if life has taught me anything it is that we are constantly in the midst of malevolent and wretched entities (demons) who live in extra-dimensional space and time. I believe my bluetooth signal provided a window into one of those worlds.

Only reading this now, was it by any chance an Apple device? I've heard a very strange track which they've played if they were offline.

Has anything genuinely creepy or unnerving ever happened to you?
