I call them Jinn. They p;lay tricks on your mind, think it's funny.About 40 years I didn't actually see anything spooky, but I did HEAR it..
I was home alone while the rest of the family were out shopping in town, and i spent the time up in my room building a plastic model ship.
Around teatime i heard voices in the street outside that sounded like the family returning, then i heard our front gate unlatch, then i heard the key go in the front door, then heard their voices and footsteps spill into the hallway.
Then there was dead silence.
I went downstairs to greet them but there was nobody there, i looked in the living room, kitchen, even the garden and garden shed, but nothing, they were nowhere to be seen.
I assumed they must have gone out to do a bit more shopping up the road , and i went back up to carry on with my ship.
After about an hour they came back and i asked my mother if they'd arrived earlier and gone back out again, but she said no, and hadn't a clue what i was talking about.
So i just put the earlier arrival down to a trick of the mind or a "waking dream" or whatever, and felt fascinated and privileged to have experienced it.
A few years later i happened to learn from a paranormal book that the phenomenon is fairly common, and is called "False Arrival", where somebody hears one or more friends or family members come into the house, followed by silence.

I know you put a bit of a comic spin on that, but it be very close to it I reckons. There could be whole worlds right under our noses, simple switch to infared and you can see what otherwise seemed invisible. that's why they say certain animals they can see what we can't. Maybe like radio, microwaves they are able to percieve what humans can't.Yes, and maybe they're what Shakespeare called "elves of hills, brooks, standing lakes and groves" in The Tempest.
I think a tired mind is easy prey for them, for example I was concentrating hard on building that fiddly model ship, and another tired mind featured in a TV prog about the paranormal., namely the manager of a small engineering firm was working late on his own one night concentrating hard doing the accounts in the old control tower on a disused airfield where his firm was renting some hangars , when he heard footsteps plodding up the stone stairs and stop outside his door.
After a short silence he impatiently called out "Well come on in then!", but nobody did. He went and opened the door but there was nobody there.
Here's a theory of mine- we're all born with a "psychic shield" or "force field" or "buffer" around our brains to protect it from - dare i say it - elves, demons and other assorted supernatural phenomena.
But if we're engaged in doing something that requires a lot of mental concentration, our "shield" is weakened because we're draining power from it to concentrate on tasks that require a heavy mental workload.
So me and the manager experienced false arrivals or "visitations" by...who knows?
PS- we hear of students killing themselves after prolonged heavy swotting for exams, so maybe they were concentrating so hard on their studies that mental power was drained from their shield and all sorts of nasties got into their heads, for example-

Maybe that's why the Sabbath (or any other day once a week) is meant as a rest day for us to relax and re-charge our shields?
KIRK- "Report Mr. Spock"
SPOCK- "We're being scanned captain, source and origin unknown"
KIRK- "Shields up, red alert !"

so i've worked nights in healthcare for the past 8 years and the stuff we have seen and heard is unreal. at the old care home i used to work in it was haunted as hell i never used to believe in stuff like that til i started working there. shadow figures, footsteps that follow you around the corridors also smoky mists and voices coming from empty rooms and call bells going off was a crazy place!View attachment 13234What is the strangest thing you ever saw. Spooky sh** of course is what i'd be interested in hearing about. There is just no way we are the only "species" on this planet. If you gonna start making sh** up then kindly exit right now, this here is for actual propa sightings. They do not need to be verified or proven but let it be known I can smell buuulshit a mile away
