If something very unusual hadn’t happened to me years ago, I would be a total skeptic. I was riding in the front passenger seat of my friend Dave's 1940 Ford with his girlfriend Linda between us. We were just cruising randomly enjoying a drive through suburban/rural NJ. Suddenly I felt very strange. I closed my eyes and it was as though I'd stepped into a movie. The colors were deeper and brighter than real life. I saw us (still in the car) on the wrong side of the road. There were flashing red lights ahead of us and something going on up a hill on our left. This was totally unexpected and very vivid. I was startled. I opened my eyes and said something appropriate like HOLY SH*T! They asked me what that was about and I told them what happened to me. They asked me if I was high or something and I truthfully said no. They reassured me that it was probably nothing to worry about and Dave kept driving.
We just cruised along for about another half hour or so going through quiet semi-rural neighborhoods. Then we came up on the exact scene I'd seen...there were police on the road directing us to drive on the wrong side to get us past some emergency vehicles that were there because a house was on fire up on the hill to our left. Dave and Linda looked at me with a mix of fear and astonishment, which was pretty much how I felt too. For about a week they were afraid of me, and of course I was pretty confused. Then I decided I must be psychic, something I'd never believed in. I went to the library and took out books on psychic phenomena. Some of them had exercises to increase psychic abilities and I tried the exercises. Well, the truth is I could never get anything at all to happen. Nothing! My conclusion is that I'm not psychic at all. Something I don’t understand caused this phenonemen. I'm totally convinced that I have no psychic abilities whatsoever. I'm also convinced that on very rare occasions something like this happens to some people for no apparent reason.

I'll tell you the story, but you may not believe it. Some years ago I was living in Cambridge, Massachusetts, just a five minute walk from Harvard Square. Opposite my apartment building was an old, unlived in but well maintained house with boarded windows. My friend and I enjoyed the fantasy that the house was haunted. The grounds were kept up and in winter the walkway shoveled free of snow, but we never saw anyone do the work. We made up stories about the ghost that tended the old house.
One night I had a dream that I found in my own basement a small doorway leading to a tunnel. I followed the tunnel and came to another basement. I climbed the stairs and walked down a dark, dusty corridor. I entered a room and walked to the window which was boarded. There was a crack in the boarding and I looked out across the street and INTO MY OWN APARTMENT. I suddenly realized I was in the haunted house. At that moment a voice said, "You'd better get out of here now!" I woke up with a start and went to the kitchen to make myspef a cup of tea. The dream had really frightened me. I sat in my living room window to drink the tea and glanced over to the "haunted house" I had just dreamed about. For the first time I noticed that in one of the boarded windows directly across from me, there was a crack in the boarding.

yes. I experience paranormal stuff all the time.
All my life things have happened that I couldn't explain logically. Recently I am dealing with my house being haunted. I have made contact and any time I say here kitty a unseen cat shows up and someone will feel it. It gets in bed with us, gets up on your lap. Really freaky! Everyone has experienced the cat.

I'm not really sure if my experience was paranormal or not, but it creeped me out.
Okay, so I was laying in my room one night, trying to go to sleep, and all of a sudden I couldn't move. Literally. My whole body froze, and I kept thinking frantically, "Move, come on, move!" But my body just would not listen. Then finally I came out of it. I tried to go back to sleep again, but it happened once more. Then I tried going to sleep with one eye closed, to see if it would happen again, and it DID. I remember I was looking at my stereo, and I couldn't look anywhere else. The eyelid of the eye that was open kept twitching, too. It freaked me out so much that I left my room and crawled into bed with my mom, even though I was 15 at the time. I don't know how to explain the pure terror of the experience, but I think it was...something. Paranormal? Yes. What else could cause it?

Yes, but mine was more spiritual and not ghostly. One night I was awaken and saw a black figure standing over me was very frighten and could not move. There was something evil about the figure, I felt the evil. I then remember that the disciples cast out demons using the name of Jesus Christ. So then I started to tell the figure to leave in the name of Jesus Christ. I started shouting at it and it slowly start to get smaller in size then disappear into the corner of the room. This had happened to me more then once. Praise god for the power of His name.

You can see by many of the answers here what it is that counts as paranormal. The vast majority of paranormal events are nothing more than fear or inability to understand something perfectly natural coupled with an over-active or fantasy-prone personality.

People who actively investigate the paranormal, do run into things sometimes that they cannot explain. I won't go into details here, but the answer is yes.
