I know this sounds weird, and it's not specially horrifying. But, one night I was watching a movie at the living room, lights off and wrapped in a blanket. Startled by an unusual sound, I paused the movie. I know that I heard paws against the tiles of the floor, like when a dog is calmly walking around. The sound has stopped, and when I turn my attention to the tv, intending to resume my film, the sound starts again. I look at the dark, not seeing anything. I don't freak out, just makes me scratch my head.
I don't have a dog because my mom don't likes them. Another day, during daylight, I hear those paws again, at the exact spot, in front of a glass door. I keep asking what is this, causes me a lot of curiosity. Am I imagining this? Is it a visitor? Recently, I have become more spiritual, less stubborn, like I have opened something on myself.
There are different happenings at my home, but this is one of them. Because I'm currently working at home, I notice several things when all is quiet, silent, when I'm alone. They are not dramatic events, they are discreet, I don't expect them. Sometimes are just inexplicable, steps, feelings that don't belong to me, sensations in my body, I sense, that come from outside, I don't know if you get me. For example, one night I shut off the light because I pretended to sleep. My sister A. Was on a boot camp, so that night I was going to sleep by myself. I was lying in my bed and suddenly felt a pressure next to my head, on the right side of the pillow. I could sense and hear a breathing, kind of agitated. I stayed like that a few seconds, then I turned on the light. I was nervous, so I left the bathroom light on that night.
I hope someone can tell me something about it, maybe to enlighten me. Thank you for reading!
I did not read deeply enough into your first post as I focused on dog scratching sounds. I should have caught your additional input. My apologies.
May I suggest that go to the top of the YGS page (this page will do). Look slightly right of center at the top of the page. Locate "Other Related Topics" and click. Now, locate and click on "Psychics & Mediums."
Your focus should be on Mediums. Poke around a bit and you will see why I am suggesting this to you. You may be a natural Medium. Simply put, an antenna for receiving the kinds of input you have described.
I am not a learned person about ghosts. I came here seeking information as you are now. Some people have been very helpful and succeeding at putting my mind at ease. There is an entire sub-section on pets, and their return after death appears to be recognized, if not somewhat common.
As an untutored person regarding ghosts, I'm going to take a topical risk and say that ghostly phenomenon may happen to anyone. In other words, if a ghost wants to appear to you, or let you know it's around, it will.
Being a Medium means you have increased sensitivity (ies) to some aspects of the paranormal. Said differently, you may hear, see or know what others do not or cannot.
Being psychic is different. For me, it is the appearance of knowledge unsought. I just 'know' things.
I hope this is helpful to you and you find the answers you seek.
We can talk anytime.
