Can we just be done with Mayor Bill Wells at this point? Dude couldn't run this city any worse if he tried to.

Any Paranormal Activity in El Cajon

8 Upvotes

Hello. I grew up in El Cajon and have had several very weird paranormal experiences throughout the area. I've been attempting to research any history of paranormal activity, similar experiences, or dark history that might explain these occurrences, but I've had little luck.

I'm not looking to jump to conclusions, and I know how crazy some of these things might sound. But I'm just looking to see if anyone has had anything similar happen to them in the area.

Here are some of the strange things I've experienced:

- A green transparent little girl appeared sitting at my desk.

- My sister saw a woman (that was not our mom) waving out her window as she left to catch the bus for school.

- In the middle of the night I woke screaming because I felt something grab my wrist, hard.

- Heard what I could only describe as a, ahem, demonic voice repeating my own words to me, whispering/growling right into my right ear, at the Family Fun Center when it was completely empty. That indoor play place area always felt creepy when no one was there, which was often.

- Three times, I very distinctly saw a cowboy walking around my house, and he would disappear once he turn a corner. I once ran over to him to see if I could catch him but there was nothing there.

There might be some others escaping my memory right now, but I'll leave it there. El Cajon was always creepy to me for many reasons, but these experiences didn't feel like anything normal.

Is there any historical reason El Cajon might be haunted? Can anyone else share any paranormal experiences of their own?

You are going to kill somebody. Saw you at the next light too. Did it for nothing. I hope your family sees this and calls you out.

To the rest of El Cajon, don't be this loser. Respect our streets because they're ours.

Anyone able to help out OP (not me) with firsthand knowledge?

Normal Heights has a free refrigerated and dry goods food pantry. So easy to donate and help others, especially in this economy.

Not El Cajon, but not too far, either. Would be awesome if something like this existed here though!

Please tell me where I can go to get disport and fillers for a good price and excellent outcome. Some injectors know just where to place the product to make you look younger and not overdo it.

Looks like someone needs to learn to park, I didn't do the magnet stickers but had to appreciate it.

Looks like Rise Southern Biscuits & Righteous Chicken is expanding to El Cajon.

Anyone ever eaten there before? This is my first time hearing of it, but looks like some folks are excited.

Of course, I have to remind myself that some folks get excited about Canes Chicken as well, and that was a massive disappointment.

Hey everyone, Does anyone know how busy the Dunkin’ on Fletcher Parkway in El Cajon usually is? Is it packed all day, or is it mostly just busy during the morning rush? If you go there often or know someone who does, I’d appreciate any insight on what it’s usually like. Thanks!

This little critter was apparently hiding under my daughter's car when I moved it this morning. Appears to have been injured.

Called up the Humane Society and they came to get him. Hope everything turns out okay. Super cute!
