I have been talking with a couple of funeral directors and they have told me that they had strange happenings?

Question

when they are tending to the deceased. they told me that doors are left open, security alarms go off , and all sorts of things occur. Is there any funeral directors or other professionals that deal with the dying and the deceased who have had similar unexplained experiences. the people I spoke with are very serious people and yet the cited quite a few incidents. Any other accounts??

I am really looking for accounts of paranormal activity.

Answer 2

This summer I stayed 5 weeks with my mother in a hospice. I was there 24 hours a day. Each room had individual thermostats no lie we would wake up cold and find it had been turned down all the way (it was a dial kind). The problem with this was when I folded out my bed No one could have gotten through the doorway to the bathroom to turn it down.

I also was in the little chapel, the only lights were the eletric candles lit from donations, they keep it dark at night. I was just sitting there crying (I didn't want to cry in front of my Mother if possible, so if I needed a break I went there) I was totally alone and sort of slumped over. I heard something behind me and looked, no one. I said something outloud like " How am I going to get through this?" I accidentally dropped my kleenex reached down to get it and it felt like some grabbed my hand. But it wasn't scary at all. The interesting thing about it was the day before I had been talking to another woman who was having a hard time because her Mom had stopped being able to swallow (hospice is comfort care only, you can't swallow and there is no feeding tube or water) anyway she wanted to go call her sister and let her know. She asked if I would sit with her Mother, she was awake. So I did. Her mother reached out for my hand and patted it on top. That was exactly what this felt like in the chapel, like someone grabbed my hand and then patted the top.
When I went back to the living room area of our section of the hospice (there was one giant living room in the middle of each four patient rooms. I learned her Mom had passed away while I was in the chapel.

My uncle was a funeral person for something like forty years. He never mentioned anything like that. It doesn't mean it might not happen.
Once, right after a neigbor's son in law died, I was talking to the mother-in-law when the lights in front of the house flickered and came back on. No other houses had it happen.
Her husband swore he had not touched the switch.
I have seen my dead Gram's spirit, my mother felt her presence. There are things that apprear very supernatural and real. I have heard nurses talk about it also.

I am a funeral director and I have worked in a funeral home since I was 17. I have never encountered anything weird or unusual. Also, bodies do not ever, ever sit up. That is an urban myth and do not believe any of the ridiculous stories about them sitting up or grabbing you hands. I have embalmed over 4,000 bodies and not even one of them had moved, groaned or sat up. They are telling stories that have been fabricated for shock value, do not believe them.

Answer 5

I was once working in a funeral parlour (actually I just worked in the florist) and had to go into the morgue area to fetch the flowers, which were kept there to keep them chilled. While I was in there I heard a banging sound coming from behind me, I turned around and there was a coffin there.
Spooky, eh?
No.
It was in fact a carpenter in the room above putting another coffin together with a hammer.
You see my point? It's easy to scare yourself with perfectly ordinary things such as faulty lights or gusts of wind while working in such an environment.

When I was a teenager I worked in a movie theater for years. All of the employees were convinced it was haunted. Later, when I became policeman, I worked night shift for years. I found that if i went into a cemetery at night, nobody would pull up to my car and ask silly questions while I was trying to do paperwork, so I made a habit of frequenting several cemeteries, visiting my grandparents and all. I never saw one strange thing.

Correlations and causes, synchronism and symbolism... coincidence? Maybe folk find significance re. the issues cos increased emotional content and it unsettles us. Needing to find 'meaningful' explanation... I've known wierd stuff I hesitate to share, but eg was in a row of flooded houses and only my electricity remained out of the lot, altho. main fuse box etc. had been three feet under water for hours. How to be sure there's no deliberate interference? ie people play silly games: 'locks only keep out honest people' a security colleague once said.

That sounds like an exciting test. i contemplate whether in addition they had a administration team that wasn't advised any gory memories and went in before the team of persons who have been advised the memories. in the event that they did, and if that team had experienced the thoughts of there being ghosts, that could tutor that the 2d team did no longer "create" the ghosts, yet that as a substitute the 0.33 team replaced into basically reacting to an analogous stimuli because of the fact the 1st team. I as quickly as study a discover out approximately there being specific commonalities between places believed to be haunted. i contemplate whether the region in question had any of those.

this is true but it sounds disgusting my friend works as a nurse in a S.T.D clinic,early last year a woman came in with an infection and was in great discomfort,tests were carried out but they couldn't find out what was wrong as it was none of the usuall suspects.so they called in a doctor who specialises in women's problems and he did a load of different tests anyway he found the problem,she had an infection that could only be caught from having sex with a corpse that was a few days old,and had a certain bacteria.the woman became hysterical because her husband had been training as an undertaker for the last 8 months.eewww
