Have you ever experienced seeing something that was paranormal when you were a kid and you know it was real?

Question

because you never forgot it? If so, what?

Answer 1

Yes, when I was 3-4 yrs old, when my mom and dad would be fighting really bad and I was in bed, there was this lady who would come and sit at the end of my bed and tell me to close my eyes. She would hum to me but it sounded far off, and a few times, but not every time, she would touch my face with her fingers very lightly, I could just barely feel it. When she would come, the sound of my parents fighting would very very dim and I could only hear her humming. She didn't like me to have my eyes open, although I did make her out a little a few times. She had on a long blue or black dress and some kind of crazy white hat that reminded me of a nurses hat or a folded kerchief.

Answer 2

of course, what seemed paranormal as a kid, are just normal events now.
I used to have bouts of sleep paralysis, so I would say that would be the experience. I would have episodes of sleep paralysis that I believed were demons attacking me.

I have had many sleep paralysis episodes since then, but now that I know what they are, they dont seem real.

Answer 3

You know I did, and I still think of it. But, after growing up and subjecting myself to logical thought, it was probably only a figment of my imagination or dream during a sleep/wake state when my brain was in between delta and theta waves or something. It still makes the hair stand on the back of my neck though when I think about it. Man, that house I used to live in was really creepy. At 32, I still don't ever want to sleep in there again even if you paid me. Too many experiences at night and during the day that freaked me out.

Answer 4

As a very young person I had no true grasp on reality. I have no doubt that I experienced things that seemed very real to me but were not. I am not comfortable with the idea of using my adult brain to evaluate my childhood experience. To a degree it's apples and oranges.

Answer 5

I have had lots of paranormal experiences. I tend to "feel" things. I have since, figured out they are demons pretending to be those who are passed on, but the experiences are REAL to be sure.

1. At my cousins house, I woke in the middle of the night and looked into the doorway (of a pitch black house), and saw a 6 foot figure in light pass by the doorway. I woke up my cousin and we went down the hallway and saw it disappear into a bathroom. When we went into the bathroom, there was nothing there.

2. There is a place that has been closed down for a long time called the "Northville tunnels" near our house. It used to be an old Mental facility complex. ( I say complex because it is huge! and had everything from a pool to a theater to housing... and even it's own fire department.) There were tunnels connecting all the buildings... sometimes 3 levels deep. When me and my friends sneaked onto the abandoned property (which a lot of the kids around here did), I kept having a really sad feeling. There were some places I couldn't even go into because it made me want to cry really bad. I found a piece of paper from when the place was open and took it home. From the time that paper was taken into my room, I stopped being able to sleep in there. Things got moved, and I always had a bad feeling when I went into the room. I didn't tell anyone but someone gave me a ride home from an AA meeting and he told me I had a piece of paper in the house and described it in detail and then told me I had to get it out of the house and destroy it. Well, I did it and the problems didn't stop, so me and a friend sat and prayed with eyes closed telling the entity to leave and that it was not welcomed. Both of us looked up at the exact same time and said "did you feel that!" We had both felt it leave the room via the window. really weird.

3. Riverside Graveyard is near our home as well and I used to like going in there because it is pretty and I also like to read the tombstones. Once, when I was driving by one of the stones that gives off a bad feeling, I was actually touched on the back of the neck. Felt like a real finger touched me. I knew it wasn't anyone in the car with me because I could see their hands! Since then, I have taken my daughter and her hair gets pulled at that place and one of the neighbor kids has been hit on the back of the head by this demon.

4. Working at Dollar Tree at night there are only a few people on shift. I have worked at a really big one so when we work the night shift we are very far from each other and we know where each other are. Often we would see shadows out of the corner of our eye move across an aisle and we knew where everyone was. Also, one night I was putting up pencil packages and I am fanatical about making sure they all face forward. Something fell in the next aisle and I went to check. There was no one there but there were containers on the floor. so, I picked them up and went back to where I was stocking the pencil packages. One row of them had been placed backwards and I had to fix them all. Rather annoying. They say the one I work at now is "inhabited' but I haven't seen or felt anything so I doubt it is.

Answer 6

Yes, but I do not believe in the paranormal. My two sisters and I were awaken at the same time by a figure that was standing at our bedroom door. We were between 7-12 years old. He had a wide brim floppy hat and a grayish trench coat. His face was a strange color. We three screamed, and my father came running in and said the figure we described was his father, our grandfather who we never knew.

Answer 7

yeah in our guestrom (were we had a picture of my greatgrandma who had passed away) alot of weird stuff went down, Scariest one for me was i was wacthing tv in there and all the sudden the tv went to like static and then out of nowherer the tape i was wacthing came flying out at my face and i barley dodged it. Also anything that was laying on the floor would be frequently moved around when no one was ever in there

to this day i always get the chills when i walk by there at night

Answer 8

Yep a number of them, but I don't think anything I could tell you would compete with CB's compelling story about the lady that hummed to him.

Answer 9

When my parents first died and I went to live with my grandparents I used to get these "visions" of ghosts in my bedroom. I was terrified, and would scream for my grandmother to come help me.

I was about 3, but I vividly remember these horrifying memories.

Answer 10

yes... I practiced sorcery during my younger teenage years, and the powers I evoked were definitely real... they turned out to be dangerous too, which is why I'm glad I got away from it all...
