Ghost stories comments: Page 4

Do you think perhaps it could have been a wild animal that caused that sound? A stray dog or cat or a bird?

That is quite strange, I wonder what the sound of the Conch shells were for, and that thing in the bucket, did it have any distinctive features?

[at] MythBelieve yes I could have but I thought my friends would have denied to go in that room so I not took them

Being alone, I understand you will be scared but You could have took all your friends with you and checked once and closed the tap

[at] lady-glow yes you are right I misunderstood your comment my bad... But the fact is there are no animals like cats or like that near my gym... And secondly it was not a windy day the weather was normal... I didn't took time to look for the source because there is no stairs or ladder to get there on the roof... It is only just a roof... As for the pipe attached to the wall, it will make sound but not as loud as a bang I think...

I hope you got me 😊

"it was 10 in the night why do you even think that someone would be there on the roof at that time?"

Actually, my previous comment doesn't say "someone" but SOMETHING. Meaning not a person on the roof but, perhaps, an animal, or something else. Perhaps it was windy and an object was trashing around?

My point is, you really didn't take the time to look for the source of the noise, hence there's no way to say if it was caused by a mundane event or by something else.

"there was no way water could flow from that roof as it was the last floor in the gym."

It seems like you misunderstood my words, I didn't mean water falling/flowing from the top of the building, but the water running through the pipe feeding the "tap attached to a wall."

Even if the building isn't old, there could be undelaying problems like "water pressure issues, loose pipes, air bubbles, and worn-out fixtures. Mineral build-ups in the pipes can also cause loud noises."

Https://www.angi.com/articles/why-are-my-plumbing-pipes-making-noise.htm

I could say that the source of the noise was a chupacabras wearing a polka dot tutu jumping on the roof but, what evidence do I have to say such a thing?
The truth is, there's not enough information in your narrative as to reach any conclusion to the nature of your experience. Just my honest opinion.

Further investigation would be helpful.

[at] valkricry mod bro if animals walked on that roof then it should have been a walking sound... But it was a literal banging sound like the one we hear when someone hits a big drum with a drumstick... And yes the air in new
Plumbing pipes can make weird sounds but not as loud as a bang I think...

[at] TravisCannabis this is the most hilarious comment I've ever seen😂...but if you were in my place you would have did the same thing...

I tend to agree with lady-glow. There could be a logical explanation for the sound. What about nocturnal animals? (I had raccoons take up residence in the wee spacing between roof and ceiling and at night it would sound like a VERY big man walking on the roof!)
Even with new plumbing air in the pipes can make some weird sounds too. As you said, 2nd floor rarely used, which makes me think the tap wasn't on very often either. Of course, none of this means it wasn't something paranormal, just some mundane things that it 'may' have been.
Like Cant says further investigation would be needed.

So, you heard a bang and went from curious kitty to scary cat? 😺😺

[at] CantunSEEit74 yes bro I will definitely try that once I went into that room again 😁

[at] Theomniscient no there is no such violent history of the gym as it is very much modern built around 5-6 years ago... Secondly I don't know whether others have felt the same or not... And also I have not visited the place again after this
Incident as I mentioned in the story

I would go back and do exactly as that night, check water by opening tap again. Go and listen again. To not go back because of banging in the floor over your head. Next time ask out loud, tap on the pipe please. Go back and try to make contact and let us know. You can only grow by leaning in, instead of backing away. Our master shower head will just start dripping at 3 am for no reason. And I am all ears.

Well I've some set of questions for you, first thing first is their any violent history of that gym or of that room? Has any of the other members of the gym has experienced something similar? Do you still get eerie feeling if you visit that place?

[at] lady-glow Bro it was 10 in the night why do you even think that someone would be there on the roof at that time? And yes there was no way water could flow from that roof as it was the last floor in the gym...

Also the gym and the plumbing systems are modern they were built around 5-6 years ago...

[at] Eerie_Enchanters thank you so much❤...and yes I hope I will be safe😊

hi, maybe its some kind of warning before something bad will happen to you I am glad that you weren't alone that time. Be Safe

In my opinion, I don't think one can call this a "paranormal" event without having checked if something was on the roof or if it was caused by the water flowing through the pipes.

Have you asked around if anyone has heard this noise?
Is the building, and the plumbing system, old or modern?

Hi Rajine,
I also think that only for that house warming ceremony my life has been saved.

Hi Neandarthunder,

I think what you say can also be right cos I don't have much details regarding that incident.
Also we can't identify whether that spirit was good or evil that needs paranormal expert I guess.

It seems like a very angry and vengeful spirit that doesn't have closure, who knows what she's had to face and what sort of end she met, which is quite sad if you think about it, she would have had followed you while you were leaving your dad's friends house because of the house warming ceremony that was performed, that spirit wouldn't have been able to enter that house while being latched on to you.

A widow spirit maybe? Widows were (and still are sometimes) barred from eating meat in many places around India. Which state is this from? It's terrifying to lose your bodily autonomy to outside forces. If it turns out to be a widow's spirit, it'd be tragic that she ends subjecting you to the wrong she had been subjected to so many times by the society around her during her lifetime.

Eerie_Enchanters

Complicated but well enough for me, I don't know for others but be readied for more questions possible. 😉

So I think your all doubts are clear now. My (M) grand father had knowledge about Mantras but rest like his past how he gain such powers and maintained it I have no idea.

Hi, blosome I didn't mention the whole thing actually We have our own ancestor temple so my maternal grandfather used to worshiped our Ishta-Devata (according to Hinduism -the personal deity with whom a devotee feels the greatest affinity) and its inheritent in nature. In Hinduism every caste has its own different Ishta-Devata.

hmm?😕

Was my question bad?
I thought you answered your material grandfather did not practice any mantras?

So, he is a priest, right? So he did some sort of practice in this case. 🤔

A very interesting story Vmarie, and well told. From your description, the smoking man appeared to you to be quite real, although maybe a bit off-centre. It would be nice to know if any other witnesses could have had the same awareness of his presence as you did. In view of your remark that you have 'other stories' (which I look forward to reading), maybe you are a person that is particularly sensitive to things that most of us are simply not aware of. But you would know the answer to that observation. Thanks for posting this story of your experience, and please send us more.

Hi there! Your story immediately brought back a memory of something I experienced back in 2004. I was on the phone one night with my (then) girlfriend. As we were talking I heard this LOUD whistling, swirly static-like sound in the phone. It was really hard to describe but it happened out of nowhere and scared the crap out of me being so loud!

After a few seconds I heard a random conversation coming through. I forgot how long it lasted but I spoke and they could not hear my voice. Then the phone conversation somehow resumed back to me and my girlfriend.

I asked her if she had heard that and she said "Yea". We both heard the same thing and were both equally weirded out by that.

I learned not too long ago after that though, that the phone connection must have somehow "bled" through. I'm not too tech savvy on that stuff.

All that said, I think that may be what happened to you and you probably took it as maybe a paranormal experience!

Lady-Glow

I also felt very sad when that incident happened. My maternal grandfather was a Hindu priest, so he had a good understanding of mantras and shlokas. That's why I am sure he helped free that spirit for MOKSH PRAPTI. (attainment of liberation)

lady-glow

About the comment below, just introducing another angle to focus on during such case.

"In my opinion, she was only trying to tell her story and must have been angry, though I wouldn't call her "a malevolent spirit, a dark entity", let's not forget that she was a victim and died by the hand of an evil person."

We may think it wrong to call that "victim", "evil", but a victim would be a victim even after death.

It may not be the woman herself anymore because spirits like that will attract evil entities in some other believes. The spirit will have the same forum of the victim, but because of the angry thoughts, it may attract something evil, to lead original spirit to become something evil.

You have a good point as usual though, and I still respect it. 😉

Eerie_Enchanters
Hmm 🤔
Blessed and he knew the mantras 😳
Surprising to know that without any practice they will also get the blessings 😲 Very interesting and please let him rest in peace, you might still miss him very much.

And Lady-glow My maternal grandfather didn't hurt her; he freed me from that spirit. As far as I know, he was blessed with such powers and a positivity within himself that allowed him to send her to a better place. 😊

hi lady-glow
Yes I am talking about 2 different house one is my father's friend house and another is that abandoned house which we have to cross to reached there. And I didn't research about it because I am not familiar with that area and my maternal grandparents have no idea who she was? I have no idea weather that spirit has been possessed anyone or not and as u said that you wouldn't call her a bad spirit I agree but we don't know about her properly what if she completely capture me and hurt me; see we can't believe such entities without paranormal experts but anyways my life was saved just before something bad happened.

Hi, Blosomes I am so glad that you know so much about our region and beliefs. But My maternal grandfather did not practice anything; its like he was very much into believing and worshiping our gods and goddesses. By god's grace he truly blessed with such powers. But it has been three years since he passed away, so I never have the chance to ask him about all this. And Yes In our religion We do use Sanskrit shlokas as mantra to get rid of negative energy, specifically Vedic Sanskrit. If you want to know more about it, you can search the web for Vedic Sanskrit and Classical Sanskrit.
Thank You! 😁

"As we turned onto their street, we passed an abandoned house at the entrance. As we navigated the labyrinthine streets, we reached a turnoff and were greeted by an old, abandoned house at the entrance."

Are you talking about 2 different houses?

After these six years, have you done any research on who this woman was and when and how she died?

Did your grandparents know her when she was alive?

Do you know if anyone else has seen her and/or has been possessed by her?

In my opinion, she was only trying to tell her story and must have been angry, though I wouldn't call her "a malevolent spirit, a dark entity", let's not forget that she was a victim and died by the hand of an evil person.

Do you know what happened to this spirit after your grandfather's mantra recitation? Did she go back to the abandoned house or did she cross over to a better place?

Thanks for sharing

Hey, welcome!
This experience is really interesting 😲
About your material grandfather, did he practice mantras like those buddhist ones or Hindu ones? And if you know, are they different? I know that the two regions share the same language called Sanskrit. Yes, I do know that there are other religions as well around India, I just want to know if those religion also share the same language called the Sanskrit.
I heard that Sanskrit is known like the Eastern Asia version of Latin, but it was used mainly in mantras and ancient practices. Just curious 😊

Also, it is good to know that you are good now.
Sending love ❤

hi Theomniscient, thancx for your concern but I keep experiencing such incidents rarely but this things happend

hi rajine, sure I will upload that experience related to possession incident

Well, I've heard that healing process really works on one's soul. So it may be really useful if you do the one. May be it may help you ward off that negative energy...

Welcome to YGS.

What you saw was the spirit of the man still hanging around in his familiar surroundings.

I'm finding a bit difficult to picture the scenario you have described.

"he was at the foot of a twin sized mattress on his knees with blood around his feet and appeared to have some injury to back of head."

Was the mattress on the floor or over a base (box spring)?
Was the upper body resting on the mattress or was it on an upright position?
I'm asking because, in my opinion, any blood coming out of a wound on the head would have accumulated on whatever surface the head was touching, not on the floor.
Also, the force of gravity should have made the body fall to the ground?
Unless the scene was staged?

Regardless, I think your experience was unnerving and creepy.

Thanks for sharing.

Hi Vmarie123

I'd say that feeling you had when you first saw that guy, that's your 6th sense kicking in, it's sad and creepy at the same time, I'd love to read about your other experiences hopefully.

By the way, I had no idea what a "wife beater" was until I searched it, here in South Africa we just call it a vest.😅

Hi Sudabi777

Well when I say that it isn't random, I mean that what you saw was probably a spirit attached to the room you had booked.

Hi Eerie_Enchanters

What else have you experienced?, I'd really like to read about your other experiences, including the ghost possession incident as well.

Jwin Boy, you might have a point there, y'know? Maybe Cranky Nun was pissed at us for hiding the cane from Mr. Gardner, who used to love using the cane on us boys.

Crimson, it wasn't the NT, read it again... It was the Northern Rivers of NSW.

Rajine
That's right 😁
The purring and mewing seems very heart warming rather than spooky 😊

[at] rajine maybe, but there have been some really creepy things that have happened to me before - as I was already possessed by a ghost before 5,6 years.

Hello Rajine,

Thank you for reading my stories.

The room was clean and no handprint on the mirror. I am positive about it.

When you say that you were hesitant in renting transient houses in Baguio because of the stories attached to it, what do you mean? - I was planning on a back-and-forth ride during that time and knowing ghost stories about transient houses in Baguio was just an addition to me being hesitant on renting a transient house.

But I don't doubt that you did see some spirit in your room, the guy peeking at you isn't random... - What you mean random? I will be more glad to know what that is if you'll let me know.

Thank you and God bless. Thanks again for reading my stories 😊

Do you think it's all connected somehow? It is a very interesting yet creepy encounter, perhaps you should talk to a priest or someone who will be able to help you understand what you have experienced.

Hi blosomes

Seems like a very interesting conversation between Aleshanee and something only she can see 😆

Rajine
I got a bonus short story for this.
Aleshanee is still mewing at the space.
I thought at first it was reacting on its eco but it seems that there is some shady vocals or some sort of sound before Aleshanee's "talk". 😳

I do believe so, once a family member went to a psychic and the psychic said that the first spirit to come over was her dog, the psychic correctly described the dog and even gave its correct name, so I do believe that even our pets are around.

One should never tempt fate, when you first entered the room did you see the handprint on the mirror or did you not notice it until after you settled in? Perhaps it was already there from before you got in?

When you say that you were hesitant in renting transient houses in Baguio because of the stories attached to it, what do you mean?

But I don't doubt that you did see some spirit in your room, the guy peeking at you isn't random...

lol two years, better late than never nice to see you around!

Hi there,
I'm also in Arizona and had a weird experience that involved what I believe was a UFO back in 2013. I was in Phoenix's West Valley area heading east towards my home in Laveen at the time. It was night time. I noticed lights to my left, which I first thought was a reflection in the window. I realized quickly that this was not a reflection. It appeared to be an upside down triangle, with lights at each corner. I kept turning my head to look at it without driving off the road. Suddenly, it was like it knew I could see it and all three lights went out at the same time. I was dumbfounded. My boyfriend at the time was in the car behind me but saw nothing. I've heard that they can make themselves visible to some and not to others. It seems that Arizona is a hotbed for this type of stuff.

-DreamBird

All,
Thank you so much for your comments. I got very busy at work and have been meaning to get back here to read your comments and reply, like I said I would.

It's neat to know some of you have had the same experiences, which helps validate my encounter. I meant to mention that there was music in the background and it was Lana Del Rey's "Lost at Sea" that was playing. Oddly enough I had been on a cruise ship and Amsterdam was the last stop. I haven't heard that song since that dream but I'm bracing myself for when I do.

Thank you again for reading and commenting.

-DreamBird

Rajine

You think so? 🤔
It is kind of hard to believe but just like my cats in Brazil, they act strangely not just once or twice so it is not a surprise.

Tweed - sorry it's taken me this long to check for comments. I agree, I think sometimes it's just for confirmation and I am happy to have an experience confirmed by someone else. Thanks!

It's only after something happens and the more you reflect on it, the more sense it will make, it indeed is a strange experience but I feel that the answer will come to you eventually.

Hi blosomes

I think that your first cat drops by for a visit now and then, just to see that you are doing OK.

Hello Tweed!

I have been musing about this for the last few days, hard to get it out of my mind! It may have something to do with the portal up the road, the one I wrote about before. It's in that direction the energy seems to have come from, and it's on the same side of the road as my house. I've only been in there a little more than half a dozen times since last year but still feel an energetic connection with the place. What's more, is I discovered the energy within that portal seems to peak around the equinoxes and solstices, not exactly on, but about that time frame and Monday was the new moon as well.

The energy thing reminded me of something that happened to my mother when she was young, I may have mentioned it in the story I wrote about my grandfathers house and I intend to ask more about it when I see her at Christmas.

Manifestation for me ironically seems to happen when I'm unattached to the results as I was here. That even seems to be a basic tenet of the whole law of attraction thing. However you are right, it's a lesson to watch our thoughts and feelings.

You were also spot on about listening to the countdown, it did bring back memories and music I had long forgotten about plus emotional reactions. As I said, I could write a post alone about what happened during that countdown, especially regarding listening to the song I had wondered about.

1998 was the year my grandfather passed and the funeral was unusual, it was a warm September Day and the cemetery was infested with ladybugs everywhere as if like some sign! I was switching majors in college, it was busy, I believe it was the year I also got really sick with some kind of flu bug.

The nostalgia around the Casey Kasem countdowns runs deep, when I was growing up those countdowns, when they were originally broadcast really got me through some rough times. Though I never knew Casey personally. He felt like a friend, someone that could lift my spirits with the way he ran those broadcasts. Plus he was Shaggy in the Scooby Doo cartoons, another thing that got me through those childhood years! Even though he's been gone for 10 years now, listening to those countdowns, he feels very much alive and well in the ethers, if that makes sense. There's no sense of time/space as we define it in those moments.

Anyways, sorry for the soliloquy, but you helped me put more pieces together with your comment and I thank you. I know the event will make sense to me someday, maybe sooner than I think!

Lost Voyage, I live for this type of thing.

A love of nostalgia and immersing oneself in nostalgia really brings on all manner of manifestations and/or synchronicity. It happens to me a lot and I always thank whatever/whoever sends it my way, love it, just love it. However I never feel an energy enter through me, nor do I get urges to clear spaces like your wall. That's baffling and really suggests some otherness is communicating. Even though you didn't feel sentience with the energy that passed through it seems like it was drawn in by your thoughts/energy around the countdowns, particularly the thoughts about the Celine Dion song and 1998. Whatever is going on be careful what you think or wish for as it might have a higher likelihood of manifesting in the physical realm for now. Energy is neither good nor bad so try to keep it neutral or positive with your attitude/thinking. I'm talking as if this is still ongoing, I've really no idea, putting it out there incase it is.

You always come across as attuned to/aware of the energies around you so perhaps you were something of a beacon to this energy or this energy a beacon to you. The way you describe clearing the wall sounded instinctual. Build it and they will come, indeed. Great film.

You mentioned '98 not being your era but not wanting to turn it off lest it end the connection to whatever you'd tapped into. Wise move. Maybe you were supposed to be immersed in 1998 for some reason, personal growth/life lesson connected to that time I'd guess.

Really interesting set of events, thanks for sharing. I get the feeling the order it all unfolded has significance too, but I couldn't hazard a guess why, maybe this will resonate with you.

Cool stuff!

Tweed

True, I don't know if anyone reading this still remember that I had a cat in Brazil as well, ended up under a truck... 😢
Back then she will not appear in the spot where she had her worst time, but she seemed to have appeared a few time during her feeding times and during the time when her only son in different coat was in trouble. I don't feel her anymore but she somehow still is there I can tell 😢

blosomes, if I had a dollar for every time some cat has interacted with an invisible something I'd be rolling in dosh. I think it's pretty evident from encounters on here that our pets on the other side pay us a visit from time to time. I know my boy does and I love when I get the sense he's around. I think it's pretty obvious your cat is talking to someone and the odds of it being your other cat seem pretty high.

Manafon, there was, and is since it remains, a misunderstanding.

Welcome Madamjaynie,

Rajine commented about the migrant worker you saw which got me thinking Quote from Rajine:
" I'm guessing bright lights would attract anyone's attention, are you sure that was a migrant worker that you saw or was it something else..."
This reminded me of a UFO show I used to watch, and for some reason keep bringing up on this site 🤔. Well anyway, people who come forward with encounters such as yours sometimes report the abnormal 'normal' behaviour of anyone in the vicinity. As if they hadn't noticed or had their memory wiped if they did notice anything strange. I wonder if it's a form of denial. When presented with the supremely odd some will succumb to denial because it feels like the most rational explanation 'I didn't see anything, I imagined it' or 'Must be a trick of the light, I'm so tired' etc. But with what Rajine said it would be really something if we could go back and ask that worker a thing or two about their experience on that morning.

That show was called Craig Charles: UFO Conspiracies. For anyone interested. The show's formula is lame as lame gets, but the people they talk to are well worth listening to and the information covered is priceless for anyone into this subject. Just a shame they treated it like Red flipping Dwarf.

Thanks for sharing, I know it was many years ago but do you remember the colour of the lights?

RCRuskin - I was only clarifying that orange groves are common in Mesa. You wrote that you found it "less than credible" that there were orange groves there. There was no misunderstanding. Apologies to madamjaynie for getting a bit off-topic.

And there seems to be some big misunderstanding about what I wrote.

Yes, I too would like to hear your description, was it round smaller than a basketball. Was it saucer like. Your sighting was before drones. Was it silent, when you first noticed it was it above your head or near the ground. TV shows have shown us many shapes and sizes. A very interesting encounter and thanks for sharing.

I just wanted to add a bit of clarification about orange groves in Mesa, Arizona, as the confirmation of their existence there is integral to this account. I saw that there were some differing opinions between RCRuskin and CantunSeeit74 about the existence of these orange groves.

It turns out that Mesa is well-known for its oranges. As Mesa grew as a city, houses were often constructed amongst the groves with multiple trees surrounding each home. There is also a unique irrigation system. An online article I found states, "To water the groves, the city uses irrigation systems. These systems are slightly smaller than manholes, have a semi-circle of cement around them, and appear on lawns, median strips, and public parks in Mesa. Depending on the time of year, the irrigation systems begin to bubble water out of them until the area surrounding them is flooded. It then stops pumping, and the trees soak it up."

Arizona, along with California, Florida, and Texas, are "overwhelmingly responsible for citrus production in the United States." I found Madamjaynie's account very interesting, and I hope this info allows readers to focus only on the UFO aspect.

Hey, welcome.
Was it like a glowing active ball? Do you remember if there was any traffics around? Or like something that could reflex some lights?

We need to think of the scientific reason before stepping into paranormals,
So be ready for questions after questions coz people will be asking a lot here 😉

CantunSee, no. That was me knowing that Mesa is in a desert and that citrus trees need a lot of water. Irrigation is a thing I know about, I just find it amazing to get that much water in a desert.

That certainly is a weird thing to experience, it's strange how you were the only one to see it, especially when you say that there was someone else nearby, and at that hour I'm guessing bright lights would attract anyone's attention, are you sure that was a migrant worker that you saw or was it something else...

RC her story is from the 1980s and if you look it up mesa had orange groves, not that hard to find. Was that Your Skeptic, Scientific thinking.

Hi Dreambird, By what you are describing, it sounds like you have experienced what they refer to as a Lucid dream. There are physical dreams or what Edgar Cayce refers to as states of superconsciousness. (most NDE's are on this level)...There are many accounts of people describing seeing their loved ones look younger. My father crossed over at 61 and looked 21 when I saw him outside my room.

My mother crossed over at 69 and looked 40 when I was blessed enough to see her as well... I have also seen them in dreams and yes, our loved ones do visit us in our dreams, I hope my post validates your intuition.

Thanks for sharing.

Welcome to YGS from one of the resident skeptics. This is an interesting read, quite an interesting experience.

There is, however, an aspect of your related experience that I find less than credible, and that is "an orange grove in Mesa, Arizona." Though there is a neighborhood called "The Groves" so it isn't impossible, it just seems off to me, given how much watering citrus trees need.

Thank you for sharing, though.

creepy laughter is one thing, but I don't know why it is worse when its a child's laugh? But it is...

I liked this story and was wondering if I could have permission to share this on my podcast? I'm not sure if you are still active on this platform or not. Fingers crossed:)

Creepy kid ghosts are the worst! Did you take a picture of the marks?

Also, I was wondering, would it be alright if I shared this story on my new podcast? I'm currently compiling some stories for my first season!:)

Hi DreamBird

Indeed a heart-warming incident, I can't begin to imagine having to go through watching a loved one become ill like that, but I hope you take comfort in the fact that your dad is in a good place now, free from bodily and worldly constraints.

Do let us know if your youngest sister does get a visitation from your dad, looking forward to reading about it.

DreamBird, big hugs to you and your dad! ❤

What a beautiful visitation. You were literally visited by ALL of your father. It sounds like he's at peace with all the versions of himself and times during his lifetime which lead to that moment on the bridge.
One thought about his clothing, could it have represented Amsterdam or your trip in general? Perhaps a nod of approval in the form of an outfit.

Thank you for sharing, wishing you and your family all the best. ❤

Oh my...
This makes my eye warm... 😢
Sorry for your lost...
Its happy to know that your father went away happily though.

Sending Love ❤

Can't,

I wonder if the knobs could represent settings? Perhaps they are adjustable. There are evidently triangular ships so maybe the shape is repeated inside the craft as well. Perhaps the aforementioned Barry Littleton has come across similar reports.

The picture of the triangle and knobs is posted below in the comments. Hopefully triangle will be posted with story this year.

ladydarke Thanks, many do not respond. I get it. I just want to get this triangle out there. My name is not needed, it just needs to be seen. If anyone has a thought about the knobs and their odd angles I would like to hear them. I could be way off.

Can't,

I recommend looking up Barry Littleton. He does a lot of work with abductees, through hypnotic regression and coaliting experiences. I think it would help you to discuss your story with someone with this much knowledge. Perhaps he may also be able to connect you with a community of other abductees. It's very clear how distressing these emerging memories are for you. The best relief is likely to be found through being able to access a greater web of stories and experiences that will help you to fill in context and hopefully gain a bigger picture understanding of what happened. Please try to reach out to Barry.

Rajine
Indeed!
Mothers are powerful.
Good example is "Mother Nature".

Hi blosomes
I suppose we should never underestimate the power of a mother, no matter how big or small they may be.

The_Lost_Voyage_11
Thanks for commenting!
Hmm 🤔
Well spiders do have a strange sense that we human will not have for sure. I don't know how they will behave outside of their enclosures but eat of them seems to know where to build their web to get their meals soonest and avoid the misting to wet their web. 😳

Rajine

Indeed they do but I mean would it be that powerful to even take care of their babies? But anyhow I would want to believe that the proud mum wants to make sure her last babies are well taken care of 😉

I do believe that every living being, from the smallest of the biggest have a soul.

I've always believed that our loved ones that have passed on are always looking out for us and are sometimes around us.

That is a strange thing to experience, I wonder what that could be? Some random spirit trying to get a message across?

But on a lighter note, we all have trouble calling in appointments or reservations.

Hello blosomes, interesting tale, thanks for sharing!

To answer your question, yes, there is little doubt about your experience, spiders of all sorts are life incarnate and there is much more to them than meets the eye. It's very probable that this one had life after death just as humans do and explains the babies survival.

I don't typically care for large spiders, but other than the smaller poison ones we look out for, they don't really bother me. I've noticed an intelligence to them, an almost symbiotic relationship with humans and other animals, so this one looking afters its babies beyond death is no surprise but confirms my experiences.

I will illustrate why I believe it so, and fair warning to others as you did in your story, if you're squeamish about spiders, don't read my comment any further.

To explain more, a friend found a tarantula in her home, but it moved out into view and basically waited, and she gently captured it and let it loose outside unharmed. It's as if the tarantula got lost and needed help and knew she would assist it.

I was gone for a time at my home and when I returned, noticed that a smaller spider had woven a web in the corner under my kitchen cabinets. It was a rather large web, but what amazed me, is that it wove it around the toaster. Basically everything was webbed over, but the toaster was still easily accessible, as if it knew.

There's a sentience to them, to all life, regardless of size or species, and it never ceases to amaze me. I applaud you taking care of this spider and it's offspring as I'm sure it knew as well you would!

Mexican Red Knees are those much more calmer ones called the bird eaters. Those bandit legs are beautiful 😆 for safety it's not worthy handling them in my opinion though some people there would. They are heavy compared to true spiders, so a fall or two will kill them.
Wow, am I excited to talk about tarantulas for the first time here lol
Yup, I know down the south of the world there are killer spiders hiding around. 😨

blosomes I'm Australian we have to know about spiders lol. But also a couple I know in America have a pet Mexican red knee (?) I think it's called. A colourful tarantula, and some other creepy crawlies. So I know a little about keeping spiders from them.
It's cool your spider's lineage is continued around Japan.

Oh well, I don't blame you to not read the warning. I do the same thing and end up messing up myself 😜

Do you also keep spiders or Ts? You seem to know a lot 😳 yes, this 18 year old sure did went through thin and thick with me I got it when I was still in Brazil than I was forced to bring it to Japan with me, from Japan I brought it a male to start the breeding program, first attempt failed it was nearly eaten by the young male, but it fought back and ate the male instead. The second male it met successfully mated and that's how my interest in Ts started to boost.
It was really a trigger to my new interest, its slings are all around Japan now and all other breeders will tell me how beautifully its babies grew. I am really happy for this proud eight legged mum. Now it has done her last job I will keep her last babies even if other breeders wants to buy them from me (I don't sell any of my Ts, I give them away to responsible breeders)

blosomes this is one of the most bitter sweet stories I've read on here. Good for you taking care of your eight legged brood!

Of course tarantulas are great mothers and care for their young, I've no doubt this would carry on after a spider's passing.
It is really unusual what happened with the babies but spiders are incredible and can survive all kinds of environments, including in a freezer. I'd say these babies are lucky to survive but it's not impossible.
The white shape you saw your first assumption was 'spider', I'd say you're right. You mentioned having a fear of spiders and bad dreams growing up. It takes great courage to confront fears. And here you are making friends with the beings you once feared. It sounds like you've forged a sacred spiritual bond with the spiders. So I've no doubt you saw the spirit of your recently passed on tarantula. Perhaps she was aware there was life on her body and was somehow able to make sure you noticed the next day.

Thanks for sharing.

You were right. Folks like me who are scared of spiders should not have read this experience.:)

Clarification question. You write "Suddenly, my friend who was driving the other car let out a gasp and pointed ahead. We all turned to look, and that's when we saw it - a small figure darting across the road in front of the truck."

You said you all were walking. Was there another truck, or was it one of your groups'?

He pointed ahead, but you all turned around?

Was the figure running in the parking lot, or the cemetery?

Thanks for sharing.

Hi there,
My opinion, the past aways will visit us if we have always been in their mind.
Indeed there are bonds weak and strong and sometimes very complicated... 😢

I used dream a lot about my grandmother, every dreams about her may seem to have meaning and one day I decided to keep a dream note. Those notes would help me solve lots of problems until today. 😉
Why don't you try to keep a note next time, maybe it will solve some of your existing problems.

Spookygirl yes you can use the story if you like to have a good rest of your day
