I have had many paranormal experiences.

As a child the chandelier used to swing from side to side, and the radio would turn on by itself in the middle of the night.

More recently on a camping trip I was walking back from the bathrooms at that moment right between day and night and I saw someone walk across the front of the site and stop behind a tree. So I figure one of the people is going to jump out and try to surprise me, so I pull out my flashlight, walk up to the tree, turn on the light, and there's no one there.

One time I was alone in a house, and I felt a presence. I looked at a mobile hanging motionless, and said, "If there is anyone else here, make the mobile spin." The next moment, the mobile began to spin.

One time I was driving into Ponca State Park to set up a large camping gathering, and the sides of the road were lined with spirits. All standing there, clearly visible to everyone, calmly welcoming us back.

On another camping trip, we felt a spirit near the bon-fire. We had a ring of 40 tiki-torches around the bonfire. It was a still and windless night, but all the tiki flames near the spirit bent in.

It was a Native American spirit and he spoke Lakota. None of us new Lakota, but after the camp-out we had it translated, and it was an actual Lakota sentence. "You shall grow through fire" Over the next several months our group went through a lot of trouble, but came out of it stronger.

One of the people in the circle had a fancy camera. After the camp-out she went to get the film developed, and all the photos from before the visitor turned out, but after that all the film was blank. She took the camera in to be repaired. The repairman asked if she'd been in a nuclear power plant. All the innards were fried from electromagnetism

My grandmother died while my niece was in utero. After my niece was born, she would look up at areas where no one was standing, and laugh and giggle. We all knew that she was looking at gramma, so we never showed her any pictures. Finally, at about a year old, she could speak, and my sister showed her the family photo album. My niece picked out her photo and said, "That's Old Gramma."

Some ghosts are like psychic echoes permanently attached to a place or object. They are by far the most annoying of all paranormal phenomena. I've gotten ghosts out before, but it's not easy

First you need to locate the ghost. Next focus every bit of spirituality you can toward the ghost. Use a ring of candles, spiritual icons, idols, the bible, every spiritual thing you've got, focus it on the ghost. It is very important that your intent be to help the thing, not banishment. Banishment is negative, and your entire focus has to be positive. You are bringing all these spiritual things to strengthen it so it has the power to move on. You are empowering it. Have a dialog with it, even if it feels like your only talking to your own internal dialog, that's okay, and probably close enough to keep the conversation going. Obviously it feels like it needs something, so be supportive and sit with it. This is going to take several hours. It's got a lot to work through to get to the point where it is complete enough to no longer remain bound, so it's going to take time. It's going to want to connect to you because you're helping it and there's an emotional connection on its part, but you're not there for an emotional connection. You're like a councilor helping a client. You care, but you're not making a new friend. When it feels like it's ready, then you burn the sage, and cleanse your house and allow it to be free and move on, and feel happy for it that it's able to move on.

I also believe Psychics are real. I don't know about you, but I have never heard anyone say, "I really shouldn't have trusted my gut instincts." That's basically what it's about, being in tune to your intuition.

Although I believe that psychics are real, I also realize that there are some (a very small minority who make the rest of us look bad) who use tricks to scam people. I know a woman with a great ability to tell very specific things about a person which couldn't be simply guessed. Way too specific. But then she tells people things about their future which usually don't come true, but she was so specific about their past that people are very happy to give her money believing that they have found a window into the future. She was undeniably psychic, but she exaggerated her abilities to make money. No one would pay just to have her tell them things which they already know.

Because of my dealings with her, I have always tried to be careful to not exaggerate my abilities, and to carefully find ways to verify my own psychic encounters.

I do spiritual healing with singing bowls. I play the bowl in someone's hand, and feel the vibrations as they extend through the person, and can tell them where the vibrations are and what they're doing. I can do this with person after person, and it always goes through at a different rate. I'm always careful to not call out too often where the energy is, so that I don't lead the experience. I think that it's important to verify the phenomena.

I used to work with a Reiki master who could tell people many details about their lives while we were doing our energy work. Very specific things which could not have been randomly guessed.

One time on a camping trip, we created a psychic link which allowed us to keep tabs on each other without needing those family band radios.

One time, while engaging in on-line activities, a witch and I played a game of "where am I touching you" and we were able to correctly identify where and how the other person was touching from thousands of miles apart over IM

Often times when I'm driving, I'll see someone walking who doesn't look as several cars go past, and I'll look at the person, and they'll turn to look as I approach. Whereas people with the person (the ones I wasn't looking at) don't turn.

People read thoughts by establishing a karmic connection. Some can do that simply by looking you in the eyes, or even just reading your IM. For others it takes a much more profound connecting.

I believe it happens is in another realm. We manifest as humans in this realm, but there is a spiritual part of us which exists in another realm. Think of it like another dimension.

Imagine a piece of paper. Now imagine a race of 2 dimensional stick people living on the paper. You (living in this three dimensional reality) see one of these stick people, and you say, "hey you!" the stick man looks around, but there's no one near him on the page. He thought he heard something, but he's not sure because most of the sound waves were moving perpendicular to his reality and so they were barely perceptible to his 2 dimensional ears. You get right next to his ear, and say, "Hey, I'm talking to you," he jumps at the sound of someone whispering in his ear. You push on the man against the paper. He feels an odd and unnerving sensation for which he has no ability to understand. You press yourself against the page, and a sort of shadow of yourself appears on the page. This is very much like the relationship which we have with beings from the other realm. Humans exist in a primarily 3 dimensional universe, but scientists predict that there are many other dimensions. Whether or not this is exactly what is going on, it feels a lot like what is going on.

I Imagine the relationship between our three dimensional existence and other higher dimensions in the same way. Imagine that those two dimensional people had a part of them extending out into the three dimensional universe that they were mostly unaware of, but it could go anywhere along the two-dimensional surface, and pretty much detach at death. Likewise, our spirit-selves have the ability to go anywhere and interact with anyone. When we truly connect with someone, that connection occurs in multiple realms. At least, that's what it feels like to me.

Like anything, it gets easier with practice. Some good tools are the games Taboo, charades, and Psi-Kick. Other more serious tools to develop your abilities are Tarot, Pendulum, Divining Sticks ... just go to a metaphysical shoppe and browse till you find something which grabs you

Werewolves are real. Most of what we think about werewolves was invented by Hollywood. The ancient myths involved people donning skins, invoking the spirit of the wolf, and losing their humanity. There's a woman called Lupa who lives in a national park and becomes a wolf nightly. I met her, and I saw her lose herself to the spirit of the wolf

Lupa was at a Pagan festival. She mostly kept to herself, except for at night when she would don the wolf pelt and dance around the fire, invoking the spirit of the wolf, giving up her humanity, losing herself to the spirit of the wolf. She was naked except for the wolf skin, and her body was lean and toned like a wolf. After she was finished dancing, she went off to do I know not what.

I heard that she was nineteen, but her face showed more years. She could speak, but rarely ever did. She might have been a bit feral

I had just gone through a shamanic vision quest to find and merge with my spirit animal, which was far more domesticated (dog) so I was a bit leary of her, however it did give me a much greater insight into what she was doing. She was one of the most fascinating people at the festival, and for a Pagan festival, that's saying something.


Since then I have done quite a lot to strengthen the relationship with my spirit animal, with surprising results.

Dogs have amazing senses of smell. One time a friend ans I collaborated on a lot of energy work and established a psychic connection. Sometimes I would smell something, and call her up, and it was exactly what she was smelling.
"Did you just make cookies?"
"Was the dog just breathing in your face?"
"Did you just disinfect something?"

One of the most notable figures in werewolf mythology was the Greek king Lycaon. Stories differ on whether Zeus turned him into a wolf as punishment or reward for his sacrifice, but because of the story every year people made sacrifices to Zeus in the hopes of being a wolf for a little while.

But most of the werewolf stuff (getting scratched and turning into a werewolf, silver bullets, only changing on the nights of the full moon, etc.) was invented by Hollywood.

Vampires are real on many different levels.

When you talk about vampires, most people think of blood suckers. There most certainly are blood vampires.

I've only ever drank my own blood; sucking on a wound, or laying on my back with a bloody nose. Nose blood; not the greatest, but I wasn't totally grossed out. Wound blood; not so bad. So even as a complete non-vampire, I can't claim that I regard human blood as a completely disgusting thing to drink.

As for the vampires I've met, drinking blood is an amazing and wonderful thing. It's all about that life force energy, and blood carries that energy. They say that just reaching out and draining someone of their energy is the greatest high, but drinking blood adds a thrill of sensuality. Feeling as it enters their mouth, still warm. Swallowing, physically taking the life-force inside of them. Tasting someone from the inside. They talk about it as a real thrill. Amazingly sensual.

Also, AB negative blood is supposedly the tastiest. It's a little sweeter than most blood. They say that an AB negative diabetic is like a candy apple.

Many people drain those around them of life force energy, but there are some who can do it purposefully. They have the ability to reach out and drain a person's energy, and some are better at it then others. Some can contact you from far away in the vision realm after having looked you in the eyes and made a karmic connection, and take your energy. But the best is when they can just reach out and take it, draining a person until they fall on the floor. They say it's far better than caffeine. These are the energy vampires.

I have a good friend who can do that. She's the only energy vampire I know who uses her power for good. She takes people's headaches. She also has an amazing ability to sense energies, making her one of the most powerful witches I know (I know a lot of witches who claim to be powerful, but very few who actually are). I have known her for many years and we are very close friends.

One time it was the dead of winter, she was sitting next to a window, and she felt someone looking at her. She looked and there was someone dressed in black with no color in their body sitting across the road, intently looking at her. She looked down for no more than five seconds, looked up again, and he was sitting on her side of the road, still intently looking at her. He was not dressed for the cold, but was not shivering at all. She looked down again, and looked up and he was sitting 10 feet from the window. Just intense calm looking at her. She immediately closed the blinds realizing that she had just had an encounter with a real vampire, although she recognized him as a kindred spirit. Had she left the blinds open, there is no telling what could have happened to her.

It probably wasn't a vampire like Dracula or what we see from Hollywood, but it was definitely something from outside of our mundane existence. So there might be another kind of vampire out there also. The vampires of myth and legend might be roaming the earth after all

I do believe in faeries, I do, I do! And so do many of my friends. Some even claim to have seen faeries When we sit around the fire telling faerie stories, They're all true. And we've all got our stories.

Have you ever put something down when no one was around, and when you went back it wasn't there? Then a few days later it shows up exactly where you left it? That's what faeries do. Faeries are very playful. Most cultures have stories of playful little magickal creatures. They have lots of different names in each mythology, but I know them as faeries. If you put out offerings, you get the stuff back sooner.

One time, on a camping trip, it was an especially magickal night. At some point, everyone in the camp noticed that something was missing, including a necklace from around one woman's neck. The area where we were camping was separate from any other areas and so no one came into the area. Suspecting activity of the Fae, everyone put out offerings, except for the woman who lost her necklace. She cursed the fairies. The next morning, everything was returned except the necklace. To this day, the necklace has never been found.

On another camping trip, I put my tent right in the middle of a natural faery ring. When I camp, I always have a flashlight with me at all times. The only place I could have lost it was in my tent, so I searched my tent, and the flashlight was not in there. Then I had two friends search the tent, and they couldn't find the flashlight. I put out offerings to the fae, and the next morning, the flashlight was back in my tent.

Another camp-out, We had a tarp structure in the most wind protected part of a wind protected valley. I've put up a lot of tarp structures, and it was put up very well. I've put up hundreds of tents and tarp structures, and I know what I'm doing. In and around the tarp structure where etched glass tealight holders on stands averaging about 4 feet high (it was beautiful). That night, the structure blew over (in a wind protected area) but when it fell, somehow it completely missed all of the etched glass. About mid way through the day, with no one anywhere near the structure, about half of it spontaneously stood back up.

A friend recently posted in her blog that she had lost a piece off her necklace, and it was no where to be found. One day her husband found it, right where he had been standing barefoot moments earlier, in plain sight, and in a spot where she had vacuumed earlier. There it was, in a place in plain sight where it hadn't been earlier

The trick is to make offerings to the fae OUTSIDE of your house. Preferably far outside your house, like at a nearby state park. They like honey. They also like shiny bobbles. Be sure to respect their sacred spaces, and possibly give them a little faery altar (which can be as simple as three flat rocks placed on top of each other with something shiny sitting on it. They also like shiny things tied to trees.

These are just a few of my Faery stories. My friends have a great many more. We've seen many things which defy mundane explanations.

My first wife and I lived in an apartment where this old man died and the body was not found for several days. I was 11 or 12 at the time of his death. Later I;m now 22 and things started to happen. My wife, me and a friend were in the kitchen and we saw a small flower vase jump off the window sill past the sink and fall on the kitchen floor, and it did not break! We were like, "Did you see that!?" The window was closed, there is no other way to explain it, except that the old man's ghost did it. Another time our son was in his walker and a picture jumped off the wall next to my son. It didn't hit him, but it was scary. My wife and I both saw it happen. The owners sold the place and I haven't been inside since 1992. BTW the old man's name was Robert Kraft of California.

There was a woman that had died in the house that we grew up in & my siblings claimed that they saw her ghost outside the window facing toward the garden.
We did have strange occurrences in the house (several light bulbs popping in the same room but then working properly later on without the bulbs being changed, things suddenly disappearing & showing up in the most unlikely places later on, cold spots, etc.) but these may be contributed more to poltergeist activity more to a haunting. We were a large family & poltergeists are very likely to be around adolescents.
My mother did have a very frightening [supernatural] experience in my sister's bedroom & would never sleep in that room after that.
I have seen a doppelganger of my cat (which is very likely--she is an evil thing!), & ectoplasm in the sense of an entity that could fully materialize.
I think that we all have the ability to see them if we only our minds to them. All children have the ability until it is "brain-washed" out of them, which I think is extremely sad. I think that if we were to keep an open mind to these type things it would be easier to open hearts & minds to other things as well, like being more acceptable of others [living] as well.

It happened last year in my house. We (my family and I) were visited by ghosts. My dad has a night job so he comes home very late. One night all the chairs in the dinning room table where up on the table upside-down (like how some people do when they mop) and no one put them up there. The next night in my brothers room. My brothers have 2 computer chairs in there room. Both of them were tipped over upside-down on the floor. No one knocked down the chairs. Then the next day in my room the chair for my computer was on my bed. I didn't put ot up there. Why would I. I was terrified. My mother had made some Crosses and put them on every window of every room. It never happened again. This is the reason why I belive in ghosts.

I believe in "life after death". I have had many paranormal events, many of which were witnessed by disinterested non-believers. It happens on a fairly regular basis. My sister passed away in 2001. She has been a source of strength for me even in death because of her communications. I have my daughters 10 yr old talking doll with ten yr old batteries in it sitting on a shelf behind a closed door. It is supposed to require interactive stimulation to get it to speak. But during difficult times that I have had, it speaks the same three sentences every time with out even going near it. It just starts to talk. I can not make it say these lines when I try to activate it. This has been going on for the last 5 Yrs. I also have had streaks of light wiz across my room that has no windows. This was experienced by myself and my ex. My piano has played and doorknobs turn. I love it.

There is no such thing as ghosts. I believe people see things hear things and feel things but it is not a ghost that causes it. The way to explain it is imagine you are a ghost, do you knock ornamants and furniture about do you make strange noises at unsociable hours and cause things to break. Or, more sensibly do you act like a normal person and introduce yourself saying "Hello please to meet you i am your house ghost". Another thing how come ghosts wear clothes, did the clothes die with them ! ? No dont believe it, I am sure there are some strange things on this planet that cant be explained by science, but I just cant believe in GHOSTS !

I am a ghost hunter so the answer is yes. Although my first sighting of an Apparition was when I was 9. I now go out and look for them. I am going on a major investigation in July to the Bracken Fern Manor in Lake Arrowhead CA. It was built by Bugsy Segal (of Vegas and ganster fame). It is haunted by several spirits.

Yes, as a matter of fact. While using a ouija board.,I was always the notetaker because we had long conversations. We asked for someone who wanted to communicate with a loved one. After having an interesting conversation with a female adult person who had passed over, I asked out loud if we really need the board for communication. She spelled no, just have some faith in this gift and we would understand. The 3 of us sat quietly, eyes closed, for a minute or two. Then my mother and I looked at each other and over to my girlfriend who opened her eyes suddenly and started to speak in a man's voice. It was really freaky. The man explained that he had been in a mine cave in and had died below ground. He asked us to contact his wife and tell her how sorry he was that he hadn't spent more time with her and that he loved her very much. He said he was sorry to have left her. We tried to explain that many years had passed and that his wife had passed on also, that he needed to look for her where ever he was. He seemed quite shocked - he said there is no sense of time there. He gave us lots of details (names, dates, location, how long before he died) and to this day, I could kick myself for not following up on this.
It was a long session, maybe 30 minutes, and suddenly my girlfriend's head and shoulders slumped. She slowly sat up and seemed very tired. When we told her what had happened, she was freaked out and refused to use the ouija board again.
I am an atheist and skeptic, but that experience really pulled the rug from under me. I no longer refuse to believe that some people have gifts. Any one else experience a similar thing?

Oh yeah. I've seen apparitions and have practiced out of body experiences. There is a way you can study and actually do a purposeful out of body experience. It takes a long time of study and confidence but it can be done. My most favorite two shows on television are "Most Haunted" on the travel channel Fridays, and "Ghost Hunters" on the SciFi channel Wednesdays.
