Did you press your ear against the stone? Could just be the sound of blood pumping through your ears, coming back to you.

MRnotlob606 · 13-09-2013 07:27PM

FouxDaFaFa, i was standing close to it but didnt have my ear touching the statue

Had a seriously horrifying experience last night. It was a bit like sleep paralysis but I wasn't paralysed.

I went to bed and read a bit before sleep. I'd say something if it was Stephen King I was reading, but it was JD Salinger, and the part I was was a descriptive letter from one family member to the other with nothing remotely abnormal about it. So I don't think it was the book that twisted my imagination...

Anyway, I went to sleep after reading for a short time and after what felt like hours of sleep, I woke up to see a shadow at my bedside. This shadow then tried to get into the bed with me, and I kept saying no, no, no... Then it started to get in and I just jumped out of the bed and reached for the light switch. I kept feeling around and around but I couldn't find it anywhere, it was like it was just gone, it wasn't where it was supposed to be.

Then, there was another shadow in front of me. I was scared out of my mind. I didn't know what to do or where to go... The second shadow was in my path for the door. Suddenly, after all my reaching, I hit off the bed, and I realised that I was nowhere near where I thought I had been when I jumped out first. I bravely moved forward to get to the light switch, approaching the second shadow directly as I did and watching the bed as I turned on the light.

Nothing. Nothing in the room except for me. I was so absolutely petrified that all I could do was shake and cry. I've never felt so in danger in my life, it was such a horrible feeling. Thing is, my boyfriend is usually next to me but he's out of the country until the end of the month... If this happens again I don't know what I'll do!

Nothing really happened as such, but just this absolute wave of sheer terror and panic that swept over me was unbearable and I hope it never happens again. It was most unpleasant. Going for a few drinks tonight, really hope nothing weird happens when I get back.

Other than the actual paralysis, that sounds extremely similar to my sleep paralysis experiences. For me, I'll have a period at the end where I'm moving again, but the "things" are still there. You poor thing, it's rotten. To be honest, you'd probably be better off without a drink - I find I'm more prone to sleep paralysis after a few drinks.

My brother died when I was 2, and my mother had a stillbirth many years before I was born but didn't tell us about it. Apparently, one morning when I was about 5 I woke up and went into my mother and told her that I had had a dream about my sister Christina and my brother Steven, and that they wanted her to know that they were always with her and that they loved her. I don't believe in the paranormal and neither does she, but she couldn't explain how I knew Christina's name, and that in my dream she was blue (apparently she was born blue). Sometimes after that I used to point towards my bedroom walls and say "there she is!" Always creeped me out cos sometimes things randomly fall off the walls or tables with no one near them! It's possible that at some stage I overheard my parents talk about her but they insist they never did. Whatever the explanation, it brought my mam so peace of mind.

tallaghtmick · 14-09-2013 10:01AM

When I was really young I used to hate my Sisters room because of a girl in a red dress I could easily describe how she looks, I still get a little freaked in that room now.

bulldog_947 · 15-09-2013 01:03PM

When I was younger I was in my house I got up to walk to my front door as I was walking I looked at the bottom of the stairs and sitting there was a little girl looking at me. she was wearing like a night dress but next thing she just vanished, it freaked me out a small bit but I thought it was just something I imagined. Then about four years later there was a knock on the door and it was a English man with his wife he said that he used to live there years before and was just back visiting where he grew up. I called my mother and she invited them in he told us about the history of our house and that they used to run a shop in the front room of the house. Then he told us about a fire that happened and how his sister died on the stairs. Freaked me right out but there was never been a bad feeling in the house and I was never scared being there.i never saw her again.

My grandmother's brother died last week. I couldn't make it home for the funeral - I'm living in the states.

My grandmother is in a nursing home, suffering from severe dementia and Alzheimer's disease. We haven't told her that her brother died, because she is so bad --she's in her late 70s and keeps asking where her parents are (they've been dead for years. I'm 30 and they were dead before I was born). Last year her friend died and she called the house over 30 times asking to speak to the friend... so we just couldn't tell her and put her through that crap again.

Anyway, since he died she has been unsettled in the nursing home. She keeps saying her brother comes to see her at night and she wishes he would just come during the day like everyone else, and that he never talks he just stands there smiling.

That has me fairly unsettled haha. It's mental.

Interesting. I've seen myself that people in your grandmother's situation very often talk about parents, siblings, etc who come to see them but have been dead for years. They also, sometimes mix up generations e.g. someone thinking I'm my father, etc.

It is interesting, though, that she says he just comes at night and says nothing.

I'm sure he's looking after her anyway (even if he is annoying her!). I hope she's comfortable in the nursing home and not too troubled.

Vojera · 17-09-2013 01:20PM

Not really creepy, but I went home to visit my mum a few weeks ago and it was my first time being home since the family dog died (he died two weeks before). I was getting up at around 1am to turn off the light in my bedroom and I very distinctly heard the sound of him coming up the stairs and his tail thumping on the landing.

There was no one else awake in the house and I'm sure it was just my imagination, but it was a really nice feeling all the same.

fro9etb8j5qsl2 · 28-09-2013 12:45AM

I spent a lot of time during my teenage years in my grandmother's house and odd things used to happen there all the time- things moving themselves, unexplained noises and lights etc. I remember one night, there was just me and gran in the house and I went to wash the dishes after supper. The plug stopper was missing from the sink. Myself and granny tore the place apart looking for it to no avail. Eventually, we gave up and just decided that it must have fell down into some dark unreachable place. Half an hour later, I got up to fill the kettle and there was the stopper, smack bang in the middle of the sink

Another night, I left a pair of jeans and a tshirt drying on the clothes horse in front of the fire. Got up early the next morning to find my clothes laid out perfectly on the couch as if someone had been sitting in them.

Another night, I was lying wide awake unable to sleep. I turned over to face the wardrobe only to see a big ball of yellow light on the wardrobe door. There was absolutely nowhere it could have been coming from. It was kind of pulsating, getting bigger and smaller. Eventually it just shrank away to nothing and disappeared.

All sorts used to go on there There would always be sounds of pots and pans scraping in the kitchen at night but when we'd get up, nothing would be moved My mother says that when she was young, they would all hear the same thing at night and when they would get up, all of the saucepan lids would have been put into the oven in the range stove Also, it might be worth adding that my granny is not the prank playing type and these events would frighten the sh1te out of her Strange things still happen in the house only not as often (or maybe I'm just not there to notice )

ChewChew · 28-09-2013 08:39AM

One Sunday back in march 2005 myself, mam and dad went to the graveyard to visit dads parents graves. Nothing out of the ordinary there, we went home and went about our everyday business went to bed then that night. I woke up about 2am and could hear talking and all I could make out was 'yea.. Yea... That's ok.. Ill see you soon and we'll have a few pints.... Ok... Bye' so it sounded like a telephone conversation. That voice was my dad. He was standing on the landing having this conversation. Mam got up and asked him who he was talking to and he said he was chatting to Billy, his brother. Billy passed away about 10 weeks previously. Dad died 2 days later.

Something similar happened to me when I was quite young , maybe 8 or 9. I have a fuzzy recollection of being absolutely terrified and hiding under my blanket one night and then a light appeared in the room, nowhere near the light switches, door, window etc it got bigger over a period of ten seconds then it just disappeared! It was freaky enough!

In the 80's My uncles photo that was hanging in the family sitting room fell and broke, the next day he died of a brain haemorrhage.

Genuine, slightly creepy and slightly unnerving but satisfying.

I was lying in bed last night when I felt something moving at the bottom of the bed. We have a cat so naturally enough I just assumed it was her. Next thing the bed covers started to move, again I thought nothing of it as my cat likes to sleep under the bed covers at the bottom of the bed sometimes, usually on cold nights like last night. Anyway, a few movements later and I could feel it up near my private area. Naturally I went to remove what I thought was my cat but I couldn't move. My body was frozen but I was wide awake. Next thing I felt a pulling motion on my penis (yes, I know) and I couldn't help it but I became erect. Not long after I ejaculated and immediately regained my movement. Jumper out of the bed, turned on the light to find no cat, nothing else, just me and an empty room.

Like I said, satisfying, but genuinely creepy and unnerving. My first experience of sleep paralysis, different, but scary all the same.

I often wake u on the brink of an orgasm, and I cant tell if it was just a dream or if I had been masturbating in my sleep.

My friends advice? Smell your fingers next time :rolleyes:

That's one way of looking at it I suppose, thank you. Maybe I had been masturbating in my sleep. That said, I can't explain why I would have been thinking it was my cat moving around the bed prior to the session.

Temptamperu · 24-10-2013 12:37AM

Every night when I go to bed I feel hands touching my bed and me I also feel like someone is in my room directing all of this.

Dublinpato · 24-10-2013 09:54AM

when i was a kid one Halloween i was watching something like...i know what you did last summer, i'am not to sure but anyway's i left the room to go the bathroom but just as i walked back in the room on the tv screen was a man under the bed and he grabbed a girls leg well i just looked down at the end of the sofa bed that we had and jumped about 6 foot right onto my da's lap and headbutt him in the nose i looked up at my da and it was right then i truly thought i was dead.

also one night when i was a nipper i asked could i sleep beside my ma and da they said ok, i was in the middle and during the night i was woken by what felt like a cat or dog walking on the bed for about 10 seconds but i just closed my eye's and wen't back to sleep and i didn't have a dog or a cat at the time.

Just thought of something now, not really creepy but highly coincidental.
My Dad's uncle emigrated to the US when he was 21, the day before he left he was walking through Patrick's Street (Cork) and walking over Patricks's Bridge, a friend he knew from school stopped him for a chat, for some reason they never got round to talking about his emigration the next day.
Anyway fast forward 50 years during his last visit to Ireland (unknown to him at the time) he was again in town buying last minute presents and walking across the same bridge and a car stopped next to him and the same fella but his head out the window. They both chatted for a few minutes.

I find it amazing the life both would have lived in the 50 years between those chats. Apparently the chat started with "what have you been up to with yourself?".

These little things are what life's about.

Actually had a paranormal experience a few nights ago. I woke up half asleep to hear a buzzing sound in my room at about 5 am as I remember checking my phone. I remember searching my room for about 2 minutes and I discovered it was my electric razer at the other side of the room. Creeped me out as I don't see how it could have turned on by itself, it was even in a bag...

Out if curiosity, given my experience, for those of you believe, if you were 'haunted' by let's say a ghost (good looking/invisible presense) who pleasures you sexually at night rather than the norm like throw pictures off the wall, hide the remote and other toddler-like antics, would u want it to stop or continue to let it happen?

To be honest I think I'd continue to let it happen.
