Freeky things that happened to you

cofy · 10-09-2011 01:05AM #1

The wind is just picking up here, and it reminded me of one of the first nights I spent alone in the house, my husband was gone out for a pint (not to be disturbed) so it was just me and my 11 month old daughter who was asleep.
Outside I heard chains rattling on the pavement along with a knocking sound, I ran around the house locking all windows and doors. Following day I found out it was a neighbours dog that is usually chained up getting free.

Lucky you missed the zombie who set the dog free or you'd have been really freaked out.

I thought i was dead once, i remember seeing faces from my past and my family and stuff then i realised that i had been eating Equadorian Magic Mushrooms realised i wasnt dead and went to a rave. :cool:

wouldn't know whether to call it freaky or weird or coincidence or what..

But, when I was 16 I was hit by a car, on the 2 of June, only still alive thank God as I seen the car comin for me an reacted it hit me and lucky only shattered my leg, needed an operation to fix it but I'm still alive.

Exactly 1 year later, my best friend died on the 2nd of june to sudden adult death syndrome he was 16..

Sorry to hear that, its something that pops up on the news every now and then but isnt much on my radar. That must have been traumatic

Its your heart stopping suddenly. Apparently it can be detected in some people if the doc knows what he's looking for

Thanks, yeah it was pretty horrible, I can remember hearing it an thinking someone was playing a joke on me,, this went on for about 2 days of no sleep searching for answers, I was only 17, it was hard to accept, I think it only really hit home at his funeral, seeing my dad cry, an it all hit me then, I broke down an just, I dunno.. It was just not a nice time in my life..

opposite for me, the whole idea of sleep is freaky, every day 7~ hours go missing and have to remind myself its the passing of a day...its just weird

4leto · 10-09-2011 01:18AM

I heard what I thought was a voice in my head that said "break now" I did and the artic beside me nearly turned over at a roundabout.

If I hadn't stopped, perhaps.....who knows.

Remember him for who he was, a good friend. I wish I could be that to someone.

Something like that also happened, I was driving along a twisty road and all of a sudden I heard my driving instructer telling me to slow down. I had finished driving lessons and had passed my test years earlier. Anyway after I had slowed down to a very low speed I came a cross a cyclist having difficulty on the road. Phew!!!!

pq0n1ct4ve8zf5 · 10-09-2011 01:23AM

Aw sorry balfie

losing someone at that age or losing someone like that must be especially rotten, double whammy there, I'm sorry that happened to you.

To answer the question with something that now seems even more trivial...the night before Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt broke up I had a dream about it. I don't read celebrity gossip mags or anything, I wouldn't have been at all aware of any rumours afaik so it was really weird. But in the same dream someone I knew came out. So this is years ago, they're not someone who's at all camp and I don't know them that well, but it's still on my mind!

*disclaimer, no I don't think I can dream the future, I probably did just overhear it and not realise, still weird though.

I remember few years back in my mams house, I was upstairs walking across the landing only one in the house at the time she was gone the shops i think, anyways pitch dark winters night an that, I got this though im my head that the electricity was going to go (i no yeh sound mad but true) and what happens BANG! the lights went out! no one would believe me lol

cofy · 10-09-2011 01:32AM

After my brother died - he was an electrician, I wanted a sign that he was at peace. The electricity went four times and then cut out. Most unusual, even my husband who is trained as an electrician freeked out.

Yeah, his mam went into him on that morning an woke him an asked what he would like for breakfast, he seemed fine, said what he wanted, an she went back 20 minutes later an found him dead, she called an ambulance, but they could do nothing, he got transported to the hospital, but they could do nothing but declare him dead. I don't even feel like its real sometimes.. The poor woman went and found her only son dead 20 mins after speaking to him, breaks my heart just thinking about it.. This is I think only the second time I have opened up about it too so its just, I dunno..

Sorry to put a down feeling on the thread.

LOL Thanks

But it could have worked out bad for breaking, the car behind me jammed on (it was on the m50, at night, just coming up to the airport roundabout) but when the truck went up on 2 wheels and tipped over to the other 2 wheels, it stay up, I don't know how.

I think if I would have drove on so would have the car behind me, so maybe that was the accident that was prevented. I don't know.

It was weird, but I could say my subconscious noticed the truck was approaching the roundabout to fast while I was listening to a CD and my subconscious let out the roar in my head. It was a very clear voice.

I would be interested to know what you think of this (I want you to talk sense to me). After my brother died, I went to his house to sympathise with his wife, very dramatic scenes, anyway as I was sitting there wondering what the hell had just happened, my head turned to a computer and a phone. A few people saw this and were just as freaked as I was. I wonder was it just shock.

Come on do your best - I need sense here.

You are not putting a down feeling on the thread, this is where you can just let go of things, but this is the after hours thread and you need to understand that there maybe comments made that you feel unkind.

If you ever want to chat, feel free to pm me. I'm just someone who has lost 2 brothers suddenly and a brother in law. If you feel I can help or just listen please do so.

10-09-2011 01:50AM

A few years ago I had a dream my friend got engaged. A few days later he emailed me to say he'd gotten engaged.

Last year (August 2010) I had a dream about my mother (who is deceased) and she told me my brother and his girlfriend were going to have a baby this summer. Then at Christmas my brother told me he and his girlfriend were expecting their first baby in July.

had a moment of what i think was deja vu at my fathers removal when i was 13,freaked me out big time and ive told people about it and they all thought it was strange but beleived me.made my dad dying a bit strange to me,it was as if id dreamed that it would happen so i felt guilty as a teenager growing up as if it was my fault.

Chris P. Bacon · 11-09-2011 12:15PM

I woke up yesterday at 04:30 and the wardrobe is at the end of my bed,but the door is after falling off it,and i have a gear bag on top of it,so when i woke up it was dark and it looked like the door was a body and the gear bag was a head,i really thought there was somebody standing at the end of my bed,i must admit i got some fright,but after i realised what it was i fell back asleep after a while.
