Interesting Weekend

We had a fun Training / Investigation with some of our team members Saturday. However, we were in a very old graveyard. I have heard so many times that if you don't prepare yourself that things can follow you home. Luckily my family was well aware of this and took the proper precautions.We even joked about we didn't have room for any more hauntings here.

But as we expected, Saturday night got interesting here.
As usual, Marty and Chris were on the perspective xboxs. Chris was in the Sunroom. Marty was in our bedroom. Both of them wear Turtle Beaches, so they hear very little of what is going on around them. My DIL was on her laptop at the kitchen table. I am at my desk. When for no reason. The toilet flushes.And not just the sound you get from a faulty fill valve. It was a complete flush. I turn around to look at my DIL. She was looking at me. So I knew she had heard it too.We just go back to what we were doing, without mentioning it. Later, Marty goes outside to feed the dogs. As usual, he leaves the TV on, and his game paused because he knows he is coming right back. He had just walked out the front door when I heard the TV cut itself off. Followed by the Xbox. Yep BOTH! I turned to look at my DIL, again, she is looking at me. This time, with raised eyebrows.We say nothing about it. And go back to what we were doing.Marty comes back in, goes into the bedroom. And says,"Who turned off my TV?" I reply, "no one." He says, "OK.Gotcha" Then goes back to his game. Meanwhile, the toilet flushes a few more times.Not in a row. But spaced out about every five minutes or so.Finally, that gets on my nerves. So I get up, go to the bedroom doorway, and ask Marty if he would please stop the toilet from flushing.He gives me this funny look, so I have to explain that the toilet won't stop flushing randomly.(Just like a man) He says, let me know if it does it again. OK, fine. It didn't do it again. But still, he could have gone and checked, Right? LOL.

Th rest of the evening and night was rather quiet. Marty and I went to bed around midnight. We watched some TV, then got ready for sleep. Marty got up and turned off the TV. I snuggled into my pillow, ready to drift off. (About three or four minutes) And the TV comes back on. Marty gets up again, turns off the TV. He gets back into bed. Neither of us speaks about what just happened. We just snuggle in and go to sleep.

Sunday was uneventful for the most part.We all had a lovely lazy day at home.
But last night...We were all in our usual places (You know the evening drill by now.) When my DIL and I heard what seemed to be wagon wheels on cobblestone. I have never in my life heard this. But that is precisely what it sounded like. We only heard this a few times in about ten minutes. Then it was just gone.A few of our dogs, barked and or growled at a few unseen things. But other than those minor annoyances. Things were quite for the most part.

Can Spirit Energies make you sick?

I have heard and read many things about how the spirit world (Paranormal, if you will) About Spirit energies being able to make us sick. Well for the past three years. I have been to more testing places, and Dr. visits than I have in my whole life combined. I have never been a sick person. And hardly ever caught a cold. But, just to show you what I mean,
Here is my medication list. And I am only 46 years old.

Vitamin D 1,000 units once a day

Yep. Amazing isn't it. When I look at this, I'm just shocked.
So that brings me to what has happened the last couple of weeks. I mentioned in my previous post that this thing had really been affecting Marty. Well, I have started feeling better. I have even been able to go off some of my meds. But the better I get. The worse Marty gets. Coincidence? I don't know. At this point, I don't know if I even believe in coincidence anymore.

If anyone out there has experienced something similar. I would love to hear from you.

Shadow People?

I have done a lot of research on shadow people. Actually, not a lot can be found on them. (Guess I need to talk to Amy Allen.(Smiles.I like Amy)) But from what I have seen. Nothing about them is good. Sooooo, here is why I was researching them, to begin with. I guess it has been a couple of weeks back now, but I was startled awake by a blast of thunder during the night. I lay there in the dark listening to the heavy rain coming down. I looked up at our doorway and saw Chris standing there, just as I was about to speak, the lightning lit up the room. There was nothing there.And as the flash faded back into black, the dark shadow that I had seen, was gone too.I felt a sheer raw terror crawl down my spine.The fright that I felt at that moment was indescribable. Then, luckily, that also began to fade. I told the family about it the next morning. But no one else had any strange experiences during the night.So I sort of forgot about it. Until a few nights later. I woke up at 12:00 for no reason at all. I lay there and listened, but the house was quiet, so I drifted back off. Later during the night, i turned over in my sleep. And I had a strange feeling of being watched. I opened my eyes to see, what appeared to be a shadow of about five feet tall standing about two feet inside our bedroom door. A jolt of adrenaline shot through my body as the fear kicked in.I tried hard to focus on it. Yes, I could see it! Then it began to fade and was gone. I looked up at the clock on my headboard. 3:33.I don't like that fact that it was closer this time. Smaller is good. But closer to me is a scary thing.
So, a couple of nights later, the same thing.I wake up feeling watched.It is about a foot smaller, and a foot closer. I tried my best to wake Marty as I was terrified. But it faded away again before I could get him fully awake.The next few nights, nothing happened. Then on a Saturday night. Marty was in our bedroom playing Xbox. My DIL and I were watching TV. It was getting pretty late, probably around eleven or eleven thirty. Being that we hadn't eaten dinner yet. My DIL and I decided to go fix us something. I went to the bedroom doorway and asked Marty if he wanted to eat with us. He mumbled something that I didn't hear. But my DIL and I went ahead and fixed our dinner. We went back out to the sunroom with our plates to watch TV.Just as we got sat down good, Marty came out of the bedroom and opened the front door to let the dogs out. My DIL and I had let them out just a bit earlier, and they were all sleeping now.I said, we have just let them out, they don't need to go until morning.Marty turned right at me, with the most hateful look I have ever seen him give, and says, Then stop your bitching and moaning! I was so shocked! I said, what??!! He says, you have done nothing but complain for hours now! Just stop it! And storms back into the bedroom. My DIL and I just sat there with our mouth's open.Neither of us had spoken to him since about 6 pm. Roughly six hours ago! We went ahead and ate our dinner in silence. Then went to bed. Marty was already asleep.The next morning over coffee, I called Marty out oh his behavior the night before.And asked him what in the world he had been talking about.He swore that I had been complaining about him for hours.But I wasn't. Then it dawned on me, our DIL had said that she had heard our voices before when no one was home. He had to be hearing something that we didn't. I was shocked!! After this, we have decided that no one spends any amount of time alone anymore.If you are in a room by yourself. You come out every so often, or someone comes in.That day went rather peaceful. The next morning we were all up getting ready for work when I went back to the bedroom to get something..I froze at the doorway. MARTY!! COME HERE!! Our whole bed was covered in blood! No dogs had been in there that morning. But we checked them all anyway. Nothing. We checked each other. Nothing. I got them in the wash as quickly as I could. I hate the smell of blood! We still don't know how this happened. But every one of us saw it.

If anyone out there knows more about these occurrences, please contact me. I would love to talk with you.

UPDATE My DIL was going into my room just a little bit ago, and she saw a small very dark (dog size) shadow on the floor.She said it felt like pure evil.

Poltergeist

I know I haven't updated in a while.But that does not mean that it has gotten quite around here. When things happen, I'm not always where I can update or make a note of it. So that leaves me with trying to keep it all in my head until the next update. I know, not a really good idea.I will try to do better.

I guess the main things going on now, are not really that frightening. But VERY annoying.
We had been gone one night. There was no one at all in the house. When we came in, we saw where the trash can had been knocked over.No dogs could have possibly done this, as we have a gate between the dogs and the garbage can. We all just agreed on how strange it was and cleaned up.

Then yesterday, Marty had left for work. The kids were still sleeping. And I had just made a cup of coffee and sat down at my computer.I heard something behind me. I got up to see what had caused the noise. And to my amazement, the trash was turned over.No one, but me was in this part of the house. I had no explanation. I got the broom and dustpan and cleaned up. I sat back down at my computer. Just as my fingers hit the keyboard, I heard a noise. This time, I knew what it was.The trash had overturned! I got up to look. Yep, I now had another mess to clean up. But how? Why? There is just no explanation.

My DIL had quite an experience herself, with things in her room being moved as she slept.This does not surprise me at all. We have been using camera's overnight now. With no luck so far.The camera keeps shutting down in their bedroom.

A Visual

For the past few days, the activity has picked up again. This may be coincidence or maybe paranormal. But either way, it's freaking strange. My son was standing in front of the TV, changing the channels. And his cross necklace fell off his neck. Later that night as Marty sat working on his computer, his cross fell from his neck. A few nights later. Marty's cross came off in the bed. Then Chris's fell off again. Then my daughter in law put Chris's cross necklace on. A day later it fell off as she watched TV. I was starting to wonder about this. So I went and got out two more and hung them on mine and Marty's monitors to see if anything happens to them.

The night before last night. I was sitting at my computer when I heard a shuffling noise come from my bedroom. I looked up just in time to see a strange shape come from the foot of my bed, and head up toward my dresser. It moved very very fast. But the weird part was, as it passed by the foot of my bed, it knocked my picture off the wall. I just sat there shocked at what I had just witnessed. This thing was the size of a regular human, about 5 or 6 feet, very dark, and appeared to be hunched forward as it moved. I was just about to tell my family about it. But I said, "Did you see that?!"And my daughter and law said yes, very quietly. I turned to see where she was and she had been standing about six feet behind me, and over to my left. The perfect angle to get a good look at what I had seen. She described perfectly what I had just witnessed. That night after I went to bed. I had horrible demonic dreams. I woke at 3:02 in the morning. For no reason. My heart was racing, and I was still reliving these dreams in my mind. I woke Marty to go to the bathroom with me, being too scared to go alone. I hate feeling like this in my own home....................

It's not over.

We were all so hoping that this was finally over. But no, no such luck. Recently, our lives have been turned upside down, so I think this thing is feeding off our emotions, as it seems to be slightly stronger. I was afraid this would happen. As a family, we have been going through some "not so good" stuff. Which has left us all pretty emotional. And probably will for a while. Just what is this going to do for our unseen guest?

About a week ago, we were all sitting in the living room watching TV. When we heard this crash from the spare bedroom. Marty and I went to see what it was. In that room, I had some bells hanging on a hook on the wall. These bells had somehow removed themselves from the hook and sailed to the other side of the room. Absolutely no explanation for this at all. We hung them back up and went back to watching TV. That night as I lay in bed trying to fall asleep. I notice a strange light on the ceiling. This light would go off and on randomly. It took me a while to figure out that I was watching the light come on a cell phone that had been dead for weeks. And had no power to it at all.

The next night, while cooking dinner. My DIL and I heard what seemed to be dogs screaming. And I mean really crying like something was tearing them limb from limb! My DIL and I both ran to the door. Just in time to see our Jack Russel Terrier and Boston Terrier racing across the yard for the house. It was just starting to get dark outside. But not dark enough for my daughter in law to miss the black shadow that darted across our front porch! We both slammed the front door. As she yelled. "Go away! You are not welcome here!" With what had just happened. Marty spoke up and said that he too had been seeing this "Black being" in the yard. That frightens me. Something doesn't mind being seen now. And I really don't like that.

Update

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. But it seems like every time I thought about it, something came up.

Not a whole lot has been going on. So we thought that just possibly we had finally gotten some closure. My DIL and I were both so excited to think this was perhaps all behind us now. The house felt lighter, And the air smelled fresher. We spent all day cleaning as if to purge the house of any remaining energy.

That night, I was in bed sound asleep. I was laying on my back, with my left arm over my head. When all of a sudden my ring finger was grabbed very hard at the knuckle. This was such an unexpected bolt of pain that I saw a blinding white light just behind my closed eyelids. Then my arm was yanked up toward the ceiling and slammed down on my chest! I said out loud, "Marty if you wanted me to move, all you had to do was ask. That really hurt me!" I was feeling the intense pain in my finger, and I said, That wasn't cool. I'm really hurting. Then I heard him snore slightly. I slowly reach over and touched him. He had his back to me, sleeping on his side. I knew right then, it wasn't him that had just hurt me. There was just no possible way. Just as my mind registered that it could be something worse. I looked up at the clock, it was 3:02. My heart froze. But I thought all this was over! It took me quite a while to fall back asleep. My finger was throbbing. The next morning. I had to soap up my hand and remove my wedding rings. My finger was all black and blue.

New EVP

Lately, we have been talking with some people that want to send in another team of investigators, and document their findings. Usually, when we discuss things like this, the activity picks up. So with this in mind, I turned on the digital recorder and la1d it on my desk. This is what we caught.

Kind of makes me wonder what will happen if we do agree to do this.

Update

A few days ago, the guys were home from work due to the rain. My DIL and I had been doing laundry most of the morning.We were doing our last load. And while waiting for the washer to stop. She was sitting at the kitchen table on her laptop. I was at my desk. Marty was at his computer, and Chris was laying on the couch.We all heard the most horrible noise! We all jumped up at the same time and went in the direction the sound had come from. And we all froze in our tracks.I was amazed to see my full washing machine, had been moved about five feet. It was now sitting completely out in the middle of the floor.How in the hell can a washer full of clothes and water move? I mean, had it been on the spin cycle, I could have maybe understood it. But it wasn't even off balance! It took my son and husband both to get it put back in place. I guess it's just another of those strange happenings with no explanation.

That night as Marty and I slept. Our bedroom door slammed shut.I know to most people that wouldn't be a big deal. But we have a twenty pound cast iron dog holding that door open.And it had to be moved over for the door to close. It also sits on a rug. So to close this door, you have to physically bend over and pick up this iron dog and set it aside.The noise of the door woke us both up. We turned on the light to see the iron dog sitting out in the middle of the floor. Again, we have no explanation for this, as we have always slept with our door open. Just another strange happening for the record books I guess.

An Experience

I know it's been a while since I updated. But I was waiting to see if things were getting better. I contacted someone that I knew could and would help us. I will not mention his name here. But, I emailed for help. And got an immediate response. I was told of some things I could do that would help rid our home of this unwanted spirit.At first, we couldn't quite get it to work. But on the second try, I'm pretty sure it was working, as things get REALLY bad.I had placed some essential oils in my oil diffusers. I was told precisely which oils to use. Within moments of burning this. Things in the home started happening.Things like family members being touched by unseen hands. Stuff in other rooms falling.Just crazy things. The dogs would bark and growl at things we couldn't see. Then out of nowhere, I got the most horrible feeling like something awful was about to happen. Something terrible that I couldn't control. I called my husband outside to tell him how I was feeling. It turns out he felt the same way. So immediately we went in and turned off the oil burners.I just can't jeopardize my family that way. I felt like this was a bit more than I could handle. So now I am sort of at cross roads. Do I just do this and see what happens, maybe risk losing my home and having to move. Or do I let it go like it is, and still be able to live in my house? I keep asking myself this over and over.

In the meantime. Not much else has happened other than Marty having his cross pulled from his neck as we sat watching TV. At first, he felt it move on his neck. He said, stop it! A few minutes later the chain just falls from his neck and lands in his lap.This has happened before, to other family members. Myself included. So as usual. He just puts it back on, and we continue to watch TV.
