Could a portal have been opened in our house? Only people who believe in spirits please?

Question

My family and I never had anything happen in our home or around us until my uncle was killed. The day after he was killed we were sitting down at the dinning table and the radio kept turning on, but we couldn't understand it, it was just alot of static with a voice in the background. Things started to happen and that was almost 3 years ago. We have doors open/close, electronics turn off and on, pictures flying acrossed rooms. Even my older brother (21) who was a total non believer has gotton scared in our home. I experience the most though, but everyone experiences something. We've all seen the same man too, but none of us never knew until a couple months ago. I was wondering if my uncle passing away could have opened a portal. I know how weird this must sound but all of us are wondering, we're all starting to get really scared. My bed room has the most activity also so I'm really scared. I never even knew my uncle. Thanks. Please no people saying this is dumb and I'm lying.

When I say a picture flew acrossed our living room I mean no one was in that room and it flew off the TV stand and landed in the middle of the floor 2 yards away. I'm no upset about not getting to know my uncle, from what I know about him he wasn't a good man and him and my dad (his brother) pretty much hated each other.

Answer 1

NO SPIRIT BOARDS OR OUIJA BOARDS...demons lie and will tell you anything that you want to hear to get out, and once they are out, it can cause some serious trouble. SERIOUSLY!

I don't think you have a portal due to your uncle's death, what you probably have is SOME spiritual activity as well as some explainable activity. You can bless the house, you local priest will do it, or you can burn sage and say your own blessing. There are a few other things that you can do too, you can burn a white candle and tell the spirit that they have passed on and to go to the light, you can get a recorder and walk around the house and ask questions and see if you can collect some EVP's, go through the house with a digital camera and take random pictures to see if you can catch something, or you could get someone local to come in and check the house for you and help you do what needs to be done. I think what you have is a manifestation of your uncle's energy, trying to show itself. There's no need to be scared, good luck to you.

Answer 2

Yes and no.. I like to hear and read about ghosts, but if I think about one being in my house then they aren't real. :P I have so many experiences but some personal things went on at the time, and the experiences don't happen any more. :D I'll go ahead and type up a few for some entertainment.. I heard 5 knocks on my bedroom window and then shuffling (like someone was walking) on my carpet. (I was on my bed, alone in my room) then a few seconds later my sister knocked on my door 5 times, and shuffled her feet on the carpet just like the "spirit" had done moments before. Another was when I had the water going in the bathtub, and I was sitting in the bath. Out of the corner of my eyes I saw a black cat jump INTO the running water, and disappear. I whipped my head around to see the cat, but all I saw was grey water.. Another time I was downstairs in the middle of the night (about 1 in the morning) and was throwing some trash away. In my Dad's office, I heard 2 women and a man talking and laughing (everyone was asleep). I immediately ran back upstairs shaking. I have also about 100 times (not exaggerating) have heard my voice being whispered by the same little girl voice.

Answer 3

I suspect that this perceived activity is really a result of your family's awareness of your uncle's death and your willingness to accept unexplained activity as evidence of his spirit. All the events you describe can be explained as natural occurrences and power of suggestion, though I would need to question you about the "pictures flying across the room". Often when people use this kind of phrasing, the actual event was that the picture fell down vertically off the shelf, and upon colliding with the floor or some object, it rebounded horizontally for some distance. This would be a natural instance of gravity working on an object, not a ghost.

Answer 4

When some passes on they don't always go away, they will stick around if they feel the need to contact family. I doubt a portal has opened. Most likely your uncle is the problem, he is trying to communicate the best he can. Sounds like your not trying to listen and he's getting mad and acting out. Ghosts can get frustrated to the point that they start throwing things. What you need is to acknowledge that he is getting through. Try saying "Is that you uncle _____" , call him by his name. He will calm down once he knows that he is get your attention.
I would bet that right after he died just a few things happened, and have been building up over time. This happened with my mother in law. Now she just comes and goes now and then and has stopped tossing stuff around. We just say hi then shes off doing what ever it is that she does. You may also try finding a psychic for help.

Answer 5

Please do not get a oujia board. They are not something anyone should mess with, you might very well open a portal this way.
Now as for you issue at hand. Set out a digital recorder. This will caught any sounds made by the ghst that you can not hear. They are called EVPs. Portal is probably not your answer. Poltergist and Haunting is more likly. If you do have negitive energy toward your uncle, meditate on releaseing the negitive out of you body. This can be do by setting in a quit room, breathing in through the nose and invision a rainbow of color coming in with each breath, breath out through the mouth and see black (negitive) leaving your body. Feel the negitive leaving you. If you have a poltergist this WILL help.

If it is a haunting, the digital reorder will give you that answer. You can hear voices, music and other things from other worlds. We are on a different freguancy hen the paranormal, tat is why the white noise on a digital recording device is so important. Where is it you stay? There is a site called paranormal storm hat can help you find a paranormal group in your area. Make sure to check them out first. Check in on some previous cases they have done, what have they done to help things like that.When working with a paranormal group you do not want them to come in provoke your spirits and leave. You need something to help you.

You yourself can bless your ouse. burn white sage at many locations, use olive oil praying a each window for what ever deity you believe in to keep your house safe and whatever is in the house send back where it belongs. Make sure you use the olive oil at window, doors and all four coners of the property. You might have to do this a couple of times because the first time you are going to be scared, be strong and keep doing it, you get stronger and it will get weaker.
Good Luck to you and if you need anything let me know.

Answer 6

It's very possible yeah. Now, I want to tell you, everything you described--electronics turning on and off, doors opening and closing, that's normal spirit behavior. That just means there's a spirit in your home who desperately wants you to know it's there. My guess is it's your uncle.

But things flying across the room is the sign of something not so nice. Nice spirit don't throw things at you or try to scare you. My advice? Find a medium who can close portals, you might seek out a spiritualist church, I'm willing to bet they can help you.

Answer 7

no, the portal thing is silly.
I think you believe in spirits and are willing to view anything you cant immediatly explain as something else as a spirit.

The most common mechanisms for spirit activity seem to be sleeping disorders and over active imaginations.

The bible says that when people die they do not come back, ever, no matter what. Job 7:9 as a cloud vanishes and is gone, so he who goes down to the gave will not return. He will come to his house never again, his place will not know him again.

If you dont want logical and reasonable answers to your question from the science and math category, then you should be asking in myth and folklore, where you will inevidable be able to get answers which confirm your irrational and magical thinking.

edit: my suggestion is, if you use a ouija board to blind fold the users and turn the board upside down. Then you will know for sure if non-sense comes up that its only in your imagination. If any spirits were there, then surely they would not be blindfolded and could move the planchette to the correct locations on the board, reguardless of the orientation.

Answer 8

Find out what kind of person your uncle was and did he like your family. If he was good and didn't have a grudge against the family...then I don't think you need to worry about him. Maybe you should have a memorial service for him in your house. Say good things about him. If it's him...maybe this will comfort him. (Just an idea...idk).

Answer 9

Unlike some of the (really wacko, baseless) answers here, I will give you one that is based in reality. You and your family are perceiving a haunting. The killing of your uncle was a triggering event. After that occurred your mood was ripe to notice usual things in an unusual way. Because these things happened after your uncle's death, you made a connection with that event. Once this connection is made, then everything you notice will only confirm your belief that his death is causing some events. All it takes is one person to mention it and then all of a sudden the whole family is in on it, especially if they are superstitious to begin with.

In order to "clear" the house, you must convince all of the members of your family that some procedure will work. If everyone is convince of the power of who or whatever it is that will be clearing the house, then I contend to hauntings will stop.

Answer 10

There could be some normal explanations for at least 2 of these occurrences. Doors could open and close due to house settling and door latches not being tight enough. Electronics could be affected my many things including a possible electrical short in the wiring of the house. You would need to examine (or have examined) these possibilities first. Your apparition and pictures flying (versus falling off walls) are a bit more difficult to explain by normal means.
Please keep in mind the idea that not all of this activity may be related (one thing could have a normal explanation while another thing does not).

I have included a link to a web site below for you that list investigating organizations by state.

Depending on your religious/spiritual beliefs you could also consider having the house blessed or cleansed.

You might consider keeping a journal and record the dates, times, locations and circumstances of unusual events immediately after they occur.
