Do you have any ghost storys?

[BLAZE]

Cheers Gents,

I got to thinking about these many ghost shows in america and how stupid they
are.

A dozen miles outside of Baltimore, the main road from New York (Route Number One) is crossed by another important highway. It is a dangerous intersection, and there is talk of building and underpass for the east-west road. To date, however, the plans exist only on paper.

Dr. Eckersall was driving home from a country-club dance late one Saturday night. He slowed up for the intersection, and was surprised to see a lovely young girl, dressed in the sheerest of evening gowns, beckoning him for a lift. He jammed on his brakes, and motioned her to climb into the back seat of his roadster. "All cluttered up with golf clubs and bags up here in front," he explained. "But what on earth is a youngster like you doing out here all alone at this time of night?"

"It's too long a story to tell you now," said the girl. Her voice was sweet and somewhat shrill

In 1977 I lived in an apartment building with my 'then' partner and later to be.. Wife. Her daughter, aged 16 at the time was staying at another address with her brothers and sisters in law. One evening, rather late, we were watching the local news on TV and about ready to turn in for the night. Just after I turned the tele off and headed for bed someone.. OR something.. knocked on the door, three times. As I was already near the door, the only door to the place, I opened it. No one there. My door opened to a stairwell that no one could hide in with out being seen.
I went off to bed and shortly there were three loud and distinctive knocks again. I jumped up and opened the door.. again nothing to be seen. It happened once more that night, so I sat on the couch and lit a cigarette pondering, when suddenly the telephone rang. It was the hospital calling to tell us we needed to come there right away. Her daughter, my stepdaughter, had been killed in a car accident. About thetime we heard the first knock.


True story. I have no reason to make this up.

Steve,

yeah that's weird when that kind of thing happens. I'm sorry that happend to
your step daughter.

I've had sort of the same thing happen to me but it's always in dream form.

I swear I would not tell this if it were not true because it involves 9/11. on the
morning of 9/11 before I had any idea what was unfolding in new york city, I
had a dream I was walking in a city and there was a crying woman that looked
like she had scrapes and scuffs on her and she had black dirt on her face and she
was either on her knees on the sidewalk or she was buried up to her knees in
the sidewalk (I'm not sure) and the sidewalk was broken where her knees
touched. I remember asking her what happen to her and she either said she
jumped or fell (I can't remember which) from the building. I looked up and it
was a tall square sky scraper.

Then I got up, got a cup of coffee, turned my computer on and saw what was
unfolding in new york city on A.O.L's front page.

I didn't even put two & two together for days if I remember right. I'm pretty
sure that's because I was in shock like the rest of america and the world for
that matter.

That's crazy, I don't know why I have these types of dreams, It's always either
right as something happens or after something happens. Crazy!

I do not have ghost stories but have one of a UFO, hands down that was the most shocking thing I have ever seen.

Do tell Wahubna.. Do tell!

Another reason I brought this topic up here on SimV is because I have looked
up a bunch of ghost sites on the internet and found that they're just like those
stupid T.V. shows (Crap!) You read the storys and it's like 'Oh Brother'. Like the
phrase "I saw glowing red eyes" Give me a freekin brake... Please!

I can beleve the storys here.

I can't say for real that ghosts, as such, are seen, although I accept that there can be apparitions. Even if so, what proof is there that a spirit claiming to be Uncle Herman was actually Uncle Herman, rather than some other non-corporeal sort(s) more familiar with his life than he was?
I clicked into one of these ghost searcher shows; they were in eastern Europe trying to get a response from a ghost of someone who lived many centuries ago. Mind you, they were petitioning in Modern English to the supposed ghost of someone who would probably have only spoken an old Slavic dialect, let alone the English (Anglo-Saxon) of the era.

As to stories, I lost many of my own which is rather haunting...

Yeah, thats funny. "Ghost Hunters" is good for that, trying to talk to ghosts
in a place like russia, and there speaking english. How stupid do they think
we are?

Another thing I thought of way back, when those ghost shows started was,
why would a ghost show up on that infrared camera as 'RED'?. Red is heat.

It took them a while to change it and start making the ghosts show up as
'BLUE' cold.

I'll tell ya what I think is a good sign that a show is fake,.. A lack of fear when
they encounter a ghost or ghost activity. I don't care who ya are, if you
see or hear or get touched buy a real ghost, Yeah! Been there.. done some of
that. It scares the CRAP out of ya when it happens.

Well Blaze,

When I was just a sophomore in high school my dad was rather obsessed with star gazing. So late one night in the winter he dragged me out to look at the moons of jupiter through his telescope. As I am looking, he starts stammering and hitting my arm so I pull away from the scope and look up...what we saw were ~8 orange globes spaced evenly apart in a curve. The curve spanned well over 100yds and blocked out stars. It silently flew over then my dad and I frantically ran inside and called his friends at the Muskegon County Airport tower...Turns out at the same time someone FROM ACROSS THE COUNTY saw it too and they had radar conformation of a large object moving over Muskegon.

Then there is my grandpa in-law who used to be a sheriff in Zeeland/Holland. He is really traditional so I was shocked to hear this from him but, he CHASED a UFO down with a deputy. One night they got calls of an unusual object over Zeeland, so him and a deputy on the other side of town got visual and started to follow it. They did so for ~15min before it suddenly took off at an extremely high rate of speed. He said it was a giant glowing sphere with a color pattern he could not explain.

Wahubna,

That's good stuff. I only ever had one thing happen as far as U.F.O. activity.
I don't know what it was but back in 1983'ish I was about to enter my brothers
apartment and happend to see (I think it was three, maybe four) brite pinpoint
lights shoot across the sky. they were evenly spaced and very fast.

It almost looked like what a meteor looks like when they shoot past, but there
was at least three perfectly spaced. and they weren't as fast as that.

That's the only thing (that I can remember anyway) that I ever seen in U.F.O.'s

Heck, what I saw could have been anything. I wish I could have gotten a better
or longer look at them.

UFO sightings are over-rated 

Too many people think you are a flippin' nut for one and two....nothing is more frightening than something that completely boggles all explanation.


But on a lighter note, if you want to know da Yooper side of UFOs....watch Escanaba in Da Moonlight!

Here is a clip right after the dad and 'Ruben' see a sighting from their 'two holer' out house.
