I can say neither I nor anyone else to whom I am close have had an experience that would be considered paranormal. Paranormal experiences are frequently dictated by external influences like culture, level of education and inherited beliefs.

No, honestly I cannot say that I've ever had a paranormal experience. But it is very common for people in the USA to believe that they have had such experiences. Personally, I believe much of it has to do with gullibility, poor science education, the current popularity of the paranormal, and a pre-existing mystic belief that seems to be fairly prevalent here. But I don't want to lump all people in that bin. I'm sure that some folks have experienced something strange that they don't or can't find a natural cause for even after they've tried to find one, and reluctantly come to the conclusion that they've experienced something paranormal. In any case, the answer to your question is that it is very common.

I never had an experience myself.I think they're probably less common in the USA.Paranormal experiences tend to occur more elsewhere.The poorer and less educated the population is.The more paranormal activities you'll hear about.That's not to say we don't get a lot of reports.

"Surveys show that over half the adult population in the U.S. have had psychic experiences and believe in the reality of the phenomena (Gallup, 1982; Greeley, 1975, 1987; Haraldsson & Houtkooper, 1991)."

There is a lot of stuff going on in the U.S. but if you go over to someplace like England they have a lot of activity there.

I think everyone does now.
Why? Because God is allowing it for everyone to Wake Up because we are heading for the end times.
But remember to protect yourself you can use The Name, The Word and the Blood to command them to leave and be gone.
