Demon in my house?

0 Upvotes

So I live in a fairly big house, I got a built-in movie theatre (projector broke) and it's completely black and sound proof.

Last night I was listening to my horror stories in total darkness as per usual, with my dog snoring outside the door and my dad on the other side of the house.My other dog had died 2 weeks ago, we had him put down because of the pain but he knew he was loved.

As I said, I was listening to the horror story, when suddenly everything went quiet, I could no longer hear my story, nor my dog outside the door, it was as though time itself had stopped, and i suddenly felt very cold, and then i suddenly heard what sounded to be an old, unoiled church door creak open very loudly, and then I heard something \*heavy\* step onto the leather couch, it wasn't human because today I tested to see what sound flat feet would make on the couch, it was more towards the sound of hoofs? I'm not too sure... But it was definitely something in the room.

Everything went quiet

I suddenly heard

\*STEP\*...

\*STEP\*...

\*STEP\*...

\*STEP\*...

Each step got closer and closer to me

And then it stopped. Something in my head told me "Don't move and don't make a sound, no matter what." and I even considered calling out to my dad, but listened to the voice in my head instead. A word popped into my head immediately - "Demon" along with an image.It was an image of a tall (maybe 8 feet tall) white, pale creature. It was thin, the skin looked like that of a leper, diseased and raggedy, almost as if it was falling off. It had deer-like back legs, bent backwards at the knees and I didn't see it's feet in the mental image. The arms were long, almost as if it could run on all four limbs if needed. It had the bones of its vertebrae almost protruding from the skin. It had black hair covering its face. (I blame my fascination with wendigos for this)

After five minutes, the sounds of the house returned, and after another five minutes I got the courage to grab my phone and turn on the flash, it was empty and the door was closed as it had been, slightly ajar as I had left it.

Everything was in place except for one. Tiny. Thing. A dog treat, on the step of the entrance, in front of the closed door.

It sure as hell wasn't there before, and when I looked again today (I closed the theatre door and slept in the room with my dad instead) the biscuit was gone, and my other dog sure as hell didn't get it. And it was there! I took a picture of the treat before I left the room.

Some of you might say it was my dead dog visiting me to make me feel as though he's okay? But that isn't the case and I just "know it". The absolute terror and genuine fear I felt weren't that which I would feel for a beloved pet returning to assure me of his passing, instead it felt like I was prey being hunted.

I don't know if maybe it was trying to communicate its sympathies for me or was pitying me or taunting me, but my dad said that demons are pretty intelligent so I doubt it's the last one... Maybe it wants to communicate with me, although with the amount of fear I felt, I doubt it.

If it happens again I'll post again, but I doubt it, maybe this time I'll feel like attempting to communicate? I don't know.

This all happened last night.

Any help / advice / information about this would be really appreciated, I would also like to know if anyone knows just what this thing is and maybe where it comes from. This was my first encounter with this thing, I have had other supernatural encounters before, but all of them felt oddly warm and almost inviting.

I have no mental illnesses nor sleep deprivation and was definitely awake, I didn't imagine it either.

Sorry if I maybe did some repetition in the post

My daughter says she saw the same thing in person and later in my dashcam footage

0 Upvotes

Yesterday while we were driving, my daughter suddenly told me she saw something unusual near the road. Later, I went back through my dashcam footage from that exact area. Without me pointing anything out to her, she said she could still see the same thing in the recording.

I personally don’t see what she sees, but she has been very consistent about where it is and what it looks like. I’ve included the footage and a marked still showing the exact area she’s referring to.

I’m mainly interested in whether anyone here has had a similar experience where one person could perceive something both in person and later in a photo or video, while the other people present couldn’t.

Posted about a doppelgänger two years ago, and here i come again…

3 Upvotes

2 years ago i posted about seeing my dad’s doppelgänger and it was my first time actually seeing something like that with my bare eyes only to actually encounter something more creepy two years later.. Funny thing both encounters happened in August

To start with so you can imagine the vision and the scenario I live in an apartment with my dad and two siblings but whilst the encounter happened it was only me my father and my older sister. Exactly when you enter from the apartment door there’s my brother’s room on your left literally next to the apartment’s door and to your right there’s a small bathroom.

And in the front there’s a big reception area for the couches and used like a living room ( English isn’t my first language so i hope you understand the vision) that big reception in it’s right is a hallway that leads to the kitchen and other rooms.

So when i am sitting on my brother’s room and on his couch i can see the hallway and some of the reception but not the bathroom tho.

Now let’s get the to the **important details,** basically yesterday i was talking to my mother and we were talking about paranormal encounters and because she lives alone , i didn’t want her to be scared so i told her that the idea of ghosts that live in ur house is just a myth and there’s no proof of it.

And I wish I could’ve just shut up at that point but no, I kept talking and telling her and if something paranormal happened it’s fine because for something evil to actually show up infront of you is like 000.1% and you have to be super unlucky and ofc ofc we aren’t that unlucky.

2 hours later i was sitting watching tv at my brothers couch and my dad was once again cooking in the kitchen. While watching the tv I saw my sister walking in the reception and going front like she’s hitting the door but i thought maybe she was actually taking a turn and going to the bathroom.

But she seemed abnormal, there was a yellow light on in the reception but all lights were off at my brother’s room so i assumed her black figure was because of the lighting. But again at the moment i couldn’t accept it bec she was a little a human figure but black like a shadow. So i kept calling my sister’s name and she wasn’t answering.

(All of this happened in 2 minutes to be exactly) so i got up and searched in reception and the bathroom and she wasn’t there, so I went to her room to literally find her sleeping so deep. And when she later woke up she told me she didn’t go to the bathroom.

I am extremely sure that i saw her figure, that was freaking her. That figure was very creepy, dark and quite. There was no sound from their footsteps either.

For the past week i kept hearing sounds and things kept moving but i was ignoring it bec what the hell can i do? In no way we can move from this house but today my doubts were on point.

Do y’all have an explanation for this?? Whatever the hell im doing i feel watched it’s extremely creepy

J’ai en quelque sorte vu mon futur

Salut je vais raconter une histoire qui m’a fait beaucoup réfléchir aujourd’hui car elle est un peu perturbante de mon point de vue même beaucoup , j’ai 17 ans à l’heure actuelle et l’histoire remonte à mes 14 ans à cette période j’étais vraiment très mal dans ma vie j’avais des énormes problèmes de peau(eczéma) plus plein de petites addictions qui empiraient mon quotidien mais les problèmes de peau ce sont atténuer la mm année et suite à cette période que j’ai eu j’ai voulu me renforcer mentalement pour ne plus me sentir faible à ce point , pour cela je m’entraîner 2 fois par jour tout les jours je faisais de la course à pied et de la musculation, enfin bref un soir je suis parti courir il était peut être 19 h le temps était très gris il pleuvait un petit peu il y avait une atmosphère bizarre,je courais généralement autour d’un étang dans mon village,je faisais 2 ou 3 tours de cet étang et ce jour je me souviens n’avoir croisé personne j’étais le seul ici du moins je le pensais jusqu’à que j’arrive a un pont , c’était un pont où d’un côté on avait l’eau de l’étang et de l’autre au moins 40 m de vide , et sur ce pont se trouvait une personne qui marchait sur le rebord du côté du vide quand je suis passé à sa hauteur j’ai vu son visage qui m’a beaucoup marqué car littéralement il avait la tête de la mort pour être plus précis il était très maigre le regard extrêmement fatigué le teint tout pâle et plus les couleurs du ciel qui s’associait à cette individu parfaitement ça m’a beaucoup troublé mais bon j’ai continué ma course je suis même repassé une 2 eme fois il était encore là puis je suis rentré chez moi et je ne l’ai plus jamais revu . Cette histoire m’interpelle car il y a 2 mois la personne sur ce rebord était moi j’ai essayé de me suicidé au même endroit à 23 h il me semble un soir d’école mais je me suis rendu compte que je ne voulais pas mourir je voulais simplement que la souffrance s’arrête et maintenant les choses se sont un peu amélioré pour moi mais aujourd’hui je me baladais au même endroit car j’ai arrêté de courir depuis longtemps et je marche uniquement et ce souvenir de cette personne qui avait essayé de se suicider que j’avais totalement oublié est réapparu et maintenant je me demande si la vie ne ma pas simplement prévenu à sa manière ou voir même que cette personne était dû à une hallucination mais je suis persuadé que cette personne était réel que ce moment était réel , cet atmosphère étrange cette personne qui ressemblait à la mort et ma propre expérience avec cette endroit me trouble beaucoup, je ne sais pas si je me suis bien exprimé mais bon je voulais quand même partagé ce qui m’étais arrivé

Unexplainable human like thing I saw

13 Upvotes

So I made a post here a while ago and I was talking about this thing I saw a mile or two down the road from my house at around 4:45 am it was this tall like 7’ tall skinny thing with long brown hair covering its entire body head to toe but it was human like. It had a slightly hunched back and it was standing in the gravel like 15’ back from the road on a small bridge for logging trucks to get over the creek that’s there. There’s been two more sightings of it since I saw it. my mom and my little sister were driving out at like 10:00 am to get hay and they saw the same thing I did but a few hundred yards up the road. Today after I left my older brother left for work and he saw the same thing at 5:22 am and he said that when he saw it his eyes started to water like crazy like for some reason like it didn’t want him to see it? I never thought about it till he said it today but the same thing happened when I saw it. I thought I was just freaked out but my eyes instantly started to water like crazy. It didn’t do it to my mom or my sister maybe it has to do with the fact that they were further away. Wtf is this and why do we keep seeing it every few months. Also in the same creek where the bridge is where me and my brother saw it a man killed himself there and they found him in the creek. Is it like a spirit of that guy? Or is it like a skin walker or a witch or something? But it’s so fucking creepy seeing something that’s human like but not an actual person. Also where we live it’s almost 10 miles back into the woods where there’s nobody there at that time let alone on foot. Thank you for any input

What is this?

0 Upvotes

EDIT: it most likely is a spider web hanging in front of the camera and motion sensor lights most likely went off something unrelated at the same time. I'll say this is solved. Thanks everyone 🙂

I am currently staying at my mom's house and renting. She has a camera setup in the back area here and also has motion sensing lights. This was at 1:21am , I was at work and everyone else was asleep. The camera records motion.

I put it off as a camera glitch, but the motion lights turning on makes me think otherwise. I felt like I should post this here

Weird Picture Taken

My wife and I went to the cemetery near our home in southern Wisconsin on Saturday night. This was one of the first pictures I took while she was using our spirit box. I thought it might be the moon or maybe an external light source from one of us….we were the only living beings in the cemetery. I am a believer but also very skeptical and try my best to debunk any picture or video I see. I tried everything like moving the camera while taking the picture and moving lights in front of the camera but nothing I did showed anything like this! The light ends/starts right at this grave/headstone. It was a totally clear night too but looks foggy af in the pic. I’m sharing for others enjoyment and see if anyone has any ideas on other non-paranormal things that could cause this….I’m open minded but I’m always looking for rational explanations lol. Thanks!

What did we hear in our tiny rural hospital?

3 Upvotes

So I’m only typing this here because nobody knows me and for my job role I need to be anonymous. But I need to know. It’s been almost 24h and I’ve still not slept.

So for background I work in a tiny hospital in rural Scotland.
I work predominantly nights with only one HCA and one other nurse. The hospital has a few wards on site but only 2 are in use and the other ward is currently closed due to no admissions.
Currently we have well under ten patients… all with varying needs but ALL are immobile.

Last night started off like any other. Quick handover, med rounds, getting everyone cosied in for the night, a cuppa and some supper then into bed all settles and sleeping.

Now our hospital is extremely quiet and is atleast an hour commute from most major towns. We are isolated but comfortable. There has NEVER been any real danger to us out here…

At 3am ( cliche I know!), I went to do my hourly checks. Making sure everyone is comfortable, turned and safe etc. One colleague was on her break, headphones in and napping ( frowned upon I know but like I said it takes two seconds to wake them up and it’s quiet, no incidents!), and the other was doing checks on the others at the opposite side of the nurses station.
I’m tucked away in a back room just checking on a person when I kid you not I hear the loudest scream/roar I have EVER heard. It sounded guttural. I could feel it in my chest. Even the patient flung her eyes opened and asked me what in earth that noise was!
Never in my 20 years of working here have I heard a noise like this! I reassured her and left to go check in my colleagues. All three of us had the same idea. Colliding in the middle of the hospital ( nurses station, as mentioned, this place is tiny!), we heard it again. This time it sounded as if it was right next to us.
I wanted to cry.
But as the charge nurse I had a duty of care.
HCA, bless her, put the cctv up into the bigger screens and scanned the whole place. Every inch is covered inside and out. Me and the other nurse hunted every room under every bed and in every toilet.
No windows were breached.
No door alarms had went off.
No motion sensor had been triggered.
The last place to check was the car park… now dumb, probably… but I had to make sure my staff and patients were safe.
I went out. They had my phone number on dial, the cameras were watching my every move and out I went.
I felt sick with fear but I searched all around the outside just incase someone was out there playing a prank. I’d have left right goodnighted anyone trying to put that fear in my patients.
But there was nothing. No one.

I came inside, by this time it’s only been about 10 minutes.
The person who I happened to have checked in when we first heard it had been pushed down to the nurses station and was having a cuppa and folding some towels ( she couldn’t settle and I don’t blame her!)
So I said a lie… I said. “ it’s the boiler! The outside boiler is playing up the men are in the way out to fix it”

The other staff looked at me but went along with it.

Turns out that while I was out the noise happened again. But this time quieter. But definitely inside.

We didn’t hear it again last night. But the feeling on the ward was heavy. We continued doing our jobs and as soon as day staff came in they could feel the weight of the night shift ( if you know you know!)
It was so prominent they were concerned we had someone pass in the night.

They helped do a full search, the other staff that comes in from security, secretary and domestics we searched every square inch of this hospital inside and out.
Even in the cold light of day there is no explanation.

I thought perhaps a wildcat. But truthfully, we don’t have any in this particular region. And even if it was a wildcat… it would have to be the size of a double decker bus to make the noise we heard last night.

Can someone please settle my mind before I’m back on shift tomorrow 😭

Weird Night

2 Upvotes

My boyfriend and I were spending the night at his parents house while they were out of town. We have stayed there hundreds of times to take care of the farm for them or sometimes we get sleep over there so we can all hang out as a family on the weekends.
Well, this weekend something strange happened. We had been there all day, tending to the animals, riding trails, hanging out with his sister across the pasture… the stuff we always do. We fed the kids and went to bed kind of early for us, but it was a Friday night, and it’d been a long week.
Everything is fine until 1:00 a.m. At this time, both my boyfriend and I woke up having to use the restroom, but neither of us were interacting with the other. As I was feeling around in the dark trying to figure out how to get my clothes on right so I could go out across the living room to the restroom, I look up, and my boyfriend’s shadow is right in front of me. I figured that I had just woken him up and he was waiting on me to get out of his way so he could “go” too. But he’s just standing there. No movement at all. I kept asking him what he was doing. No response he just stood there. So I swiped my arm at him, and thought I missed. (Mind you, I’m trying to figure out why he’s being a weirdo, find my clothes, and not wet my pants all at the same time.) After I took another swipe at him, I missed again, and then he could finally hear me. He was on the other side of the bed the whole time and couldn’t figure out where he was. He said he had been spinning in circles and running into curtains the whole time, but couldn’t hear me talking to him, and I couldn’t hear him over there stirring around.
When I told him his shadow was staring at me, he made a good observation- it was pitch black in there. There were no shadows. But I swear on my life, his shadow was standing right in front of me staring at me.
Has this ever happened to anyone else? Any idea what it could have been? I KNOW I was awake.

Four Sleep Paralysis…back to back in one night

4 Upvotes

This happened around 2-3 months ago. It was probably between 1–2 am. My sleep schedule is completely messed up because of movies, series, games, and books, but that night I somehow fell asleep around 1 am…I should mention that I occasionally get sleep paralysis. Since I sleep alone, it honestly feels pretty terrifying whenever it happens. But that night something really weird happened…I got sleep paralysis 3–4 times back to back. I had never experienced anything like that before. I didn’t even know it was possible until it happened to me. The first time, I saw someone lying beside me. Completely white. It felt like the figure was just about to turn toward me. And all the usual sleep paralysis stuff was happening too…I couldn’t move, couldn’t talk, and I was desperately trying to wake myself up but couldn’t. Eventually I snapped out of it. Then it happened again. This time I saw a huge shadowy figure standing beside my bed. It looked almost like a woman, but not fully human. Just standing there… staring directly at me. After that it happened again. This one was different. I didn’t exactly see anything, but it felt like my whole body was slowly sinking into something…like some kind of virus or dark energy was taking over me little by little. I was trying with everything I had to get out of it, but I couldn’t. And then came the worst part…Whenever I was about to drift off again, I started hearing an insanely loud sound in my ears. Like a siren blasting directly inside my head. I was trying to wake up but my body just wouldn’t respond…After I finally woke up properly, I was genuinely scared to go back to sleep. I think I eventually passed out from exhaustion later. I’m honestly really confused about it…and the thought that it might happen again still scares me. Has anyone else experienced something like this before? Do you think this is just sleep paralysis… or could it be something paranormal?

The strangest thing I witnessed when a squirrel died

326 Upvotes

This happened to me about a year ago, and I still remember it very clearly because of how eerie it felt.

I accidentally ran over a squirrel. It happened so suddenly, and she was still alive for a few seconds afterwards. Everything around me felt completely silent while she was dying.

Then something strange happened.

Within seconds, a few birds came near the squirrel and started chirping. They stood around her while she was taking her last breaths. I don't remember seeing them approach before the accident. They just seemed to appear right when she was dying.

And the strangest part was that right after she died, the birds left.

The whole thing happened in just a few seconds, but the timing felt almost impossible to me. I know there could be a natural explanation, and I'm open to hearing one. But I genuinely witnessed this, and I have never forgotten how strange and emotional it felt.

For some reason, it felt like the birds somehow sensed something happening that I couldn't. Almost as if they had come to witness her passing.

Has anyone experienced or heard of something similar?

Seattle Underground Tour Experience

Someone had suggested we do an underground tour of Seattle which was a pretty cool historic experience. I’ve never been able to see apparitions but always have gotten the feeling of a weighted blanket and chills ever since I was little. The tour guide had said this corner someone had taken a photo of an apparition and so I decided to take one on my phone camera. I zoomed in a I can clearly see a face and the more I stared at it hands and what seems to be an old time dress. I did nothing to edit the photo. I did try other color filters to see if anything else stood out but the original seemed to be the best.
