To ask for your woo tales?

Few typos there sorry didn't have specs on!
Gran died and my * ds was a baby hope
It makes sense!

I also have had very mundane precognitive dreams, years apart since I was young.
I had one a few weeks ago. It was so weird and just odd

I was dreaming about being on a uni campus (we've been doing visits for DD). Anyway in my dream I was walking along a road, it was warm and sunny. I saw a small brown mouse at the edge of the road, sat up on its back legs with its paws up in a short of begging position like a dog would do. In my dream I realised it was dead. I carried on walking to where I was going.
Next morning I just thought it was a weird dream and thought nothing of it.
We didn't really have many plans for the next day and a friend WhatsApped me to tell me about an event about 40 minutes away that I didn't know about. I decided to go with DD.
Looking round there was a glass cabinet in one room and guess what was in it. A small (taxidermied) brown mouse, sat up on its back legs exactly like in my dream !!!
It blew DDs mind when I told her 😂

Dp nannan passed away October 2022, ds was almost 3 at the time. I took him to bed around a week after she passed and while he sat in his bed he said to me 'alice came to take grandma to the sky'. I asked him 'alice? who's alice?', as we didn't know anyone called alice. He said 'a lady called alice, she's taken grandma to the sky cos she's died'. After he went to sleep i messaged dp cousin who cared for his nannan before she passed to ask her if she knew anyone called alice, she messaged back 'yeah alice was nannans mum' 😮

My gran does on the 26th August 1985 at 23.40 my mum died 26th August 2018 23.40, maybe just a coincidence. Also my mum was dying of cancer my dad told me to go home as my dad was just a baby, I had fallen asleep but had woken up and my dh found me clawing at the walls saying I can't get out I can't see, he said come back to bed but I said he to bed, I said I can't see it's to dark, we have a en suite and the door doesn't close properly , it was a full moon and so bright that night.
I finally made it over to my bed and I told dh to move his legs of my side I couldn't get into bed, he was on his side and hadn't moved . My dad phoned to say my mum had died. I think it was her coming to say goodbye

Not a believer but love a good ghost story. The only remotely spooky thing that happened to me was during a stay at a quite isolated cottage in West Wales near the Pembrokeshire coast path. Me, DH, DM and Ddog. First night we were there there I dreamed I heard footsteps coming up the passage and stopping outside our bedroom door. Ddog was sleeping on the bed and took no notice. Couple of nights later DM who was sleeping in a bedroom. Off the kitchen said she’d heard someone moving about the kitchen during the night. Another couple of nights later we were all sitting around the table in the lounge/diner having dinner when the closed kitchen door suddenly rattled. We thought we must have shut Ddog in kitchen but no sh3 as snoozing under the table. There was no wind that night, kitchen windows index were shut.

All of these things have logical explanations. Mum and Iwere dreaming, DB could have gone to get a drink of water and pretended he didn’t. The rattling door could have been a small earth tremor,they happen more often than we realise.

I don't know why I don't resist the urge to read this thread. Some of this woo is really frightening and I'm sorry you had to experience it!

I've had too many to mention over the years

One was my grandad,he brought me up and we worshiped each other

At the end of his life,he was laid,in a nappy,wired up to pain relief,half the height he should have been and the dementia had taken his mind completely

I'm told he was laid there,using his hands to 'push' something or someone away-he kept shaking his head and muttering 'no,not yet'

I saw him and said goodbye-he died the following morning

I do hope it was my granny (who I never met) had come to get him,but he felt he couldn't as he hadn't seen me

A very dear friend of mine died of cancer

The day of her funeral,I was getting ready and my ex rang

I'm on the phone,chatting away and stood up to grab a drink out of the fridge

I shut the door-and their she was

She smiled at me and vanished

I was once standing in my kitchen,looking out of the window and daydreaming

Suddenly,a white Staffie with brown markings shot from one side of my garden,across it and vanished

I ran outside-no dog

About a week later,my ds rang to say he was getting a rescue dog-I begging him not to as it is a lot of responsibility

He ignored me and got the dog

About a month later,he came to see us, bringing the dog-and the dog was the one I'd seen run across my garden

Just last week,I was bursting for a wee

Our loo is at the top of our stairs,so I ran up them (best I could with my legs crossed)

Just as I got halfway up the stairs,I saw a pair of legs,with the trousers round the ankles,sat on my loo

I stopped and they vanished-we looked up the history of our house and it was built as a council house,an older man and his wife bought it,they died and left it to their granddaughter who sold it to us

Either he'd come back for a wee or I was that desperate I was imagining things!

1- I had a life in a dream. Lived a whole 30ish years, died getting hit by a car and woke up in my bed again aged 19. Had a career, kids, husband, everything. It really messed me up for a long time. I know logically it was just a dream but I do wonder sometimes. Deep down I'm terrified of waking up again like I did before.

2 - When DS was 13 he was with his friends at the park opposite. When he was there DH suddenly got up and ran out of the house yelling something has happened to DSname. He ran straight into DS's friend coming for help because DS fell out of a tree and broke his leg 😲. DH wont even talk about it it freaks him out so much. Theres no way he could have seen or heard anything either 🥴 .

My God. You poor thing 💐

I had a really bad encounter with someone I thought cared about me. I ended up walking for miles in the rain, fell over into the road and was nearly hit by a car. Someone called me a cab. When I arrived home the cab driver who could probably tell I'd had a bad night said : At least someone's waiting for you. I said No I live alone and he said Look and there was clearly a figure silhouetted in the doorway. I thought it might be my Mum.

I opened the door and there was no-one there

If the cab driver hadn't been the one to notice I would have thought I was going mad.

In the days after my cat had to be put to sleep I saw her walking down the hallway, twice. This was 12 years ago.

Then a few weeks ago I had to have another cat put to sleep and I saw her in the dining room and heard her collar and bells jingling afterwards. Since then I've found two white feathers and had a robin visit several times.

I've also had (very mundane) precognitive dreams. Eg dreaming of the clock being 1.27am, and waking and indeed it being 1.27am.
My partner has similar dreams. He dreamt that someone he had a meeting with via zoom had a tattoo of three people dancing. It turns out he did indeed have a tattoo exactly like he dreamt of, on his back (he never saw his back on zoom).
Feels like some kind of glitch in the matrix!

Try sleeping on the third floor of The Adelphi Hotel in Liverpool! I've stayed there a couple of times with a friend. This year we were in room 366.

I couldn't sleep the first night because there was what sounded like someone trying to get in our room - scratching, banging, knocking, footsteps. Then my duvet lifted up off me as if someone was turning it back to get in. Then then knocking started and a little girl said 'helloooooooo!'and started giggling. My friend slept through it.

Next night. My friend asked me to wake her up. I did. Neither of us slept the second night either! Our beds were bolted to the wall (odd) but we grabbed each others hands from our twin beds because it was quite disturbing, all the knocking and banging.

Spoke with reception. They offered to move us, especially after I told them about the giggle. 'You heard The Little Girl??!!' the receptionist asked, she obviously knew all about it! We said we'd stay in the room and she asked us to keep her updated!

OMG, this gave me the chills!

When I was about 12 I was very into witchcraft / 'magic' (this was the age of The Craft film, etc). There was a girl in my class who was bullying me and I was so angry one day that I secretly stuck pins in a doll, imagining it was her. The next day she wasn't at school - she had gone to hospital with appendicitis. I was so freaked out that I told no one, and never used my powers again!

When I was a young child when my grandfather passed away. He was in an open casket as was the custom back then where I grew up. I was in a room alone with him and I saw his spirit leaving his body.
I immediately told my mum what I saw and she brushed it off but to this day I remember it so clearly, as if it was yesterday. It happened 40 years ago.

Not a spirit but a real person my older sister lives over a hundred miles from me i havent seen her in person since my brothers funeral 8 years ago, bear with me we were supposed to go to Brittany for our holiday my OH was very ill a while ago so i cancelled that holiday and booked Pontins in sand bay instead, got there Saturday afternoon sitting eating dinner and who walked into the dining room yes my sister her and her husband were staying there that weekend what are the chances of this happening especially as we were not supposed to even be there originally it was great seeing her and as shes 79 i probably wont see her again in person

Oooj that is very very scarey hopefully he has moved on and can’t return

Oooh nothing to add but I love these threads! Thanks for starting 😊

I worked in a large company and was pregnant with my first child.
A young woman from a different department, who I hardly knew, came up to my office and asked to speak to me. She was embarrassed and a bit unwilling to talk to me, I was very surprised to see her in our department, we had no real contact professionally or socially although I did know who she was.
Her mother had recently died and she had been going to spiritualist meetings. At one of these the medium asked if anyone knew a Veronica. No one responded and the medium asked again, very insistent.
When she said 'Veronica, who is having a baby' my colleague then said she did know a pregnant Veronica vaguely at work.
The medium said to tell me that someone called, [name changed here] 'Charlie' knew about the baby and sent her love. My auntie Charlene, often misheard as 'Charlie' had died earlier that year.
I hate, hate, hate that I cannot explain this as I'm really not a 'woo' person.....

A few weeks ago I couldn't sleep so I went into another bedroom at around 4am so as not to disturb DH. I was lying on my front trying to sleep and I felt the duvet being pulled off the bed then hands around my neck trying to strangle me. I had a weird mind over matter sleepy chat with myself (them?) and it stopped. I thought nothing of it and just assumed it was some trying-to-sleep nightmare. But about 4 days later I received an email from a relative (I am estranged from all of the others) to tell me my step-father had died unexpectedly 4 days ago. I wasn't given any further detail and I didn't ask because the last time I saw him 15 years ago he had tried to strangle me.

Wow, what was their name?

Not really woo, but something weird happened to me last week.

I sometimes cover shifts for local shops/cafes if people are ill/holidays etc. Whilst on one of these shifts, I had to phone a supplier about an incorrect order we had received. I spoke to a woman there, and it was all resolved, but then at the end she said, "goodbye, and a pleasure to speak to you, Miss Fluff".

How did she know my name? I wasn't the one to place the order, I've never spoken to them before (a massive supplier to businesses all over the country), and I certainly did not give her my name at any point during the call. I feel like Truman!

I've shared this before but I'm 100% convinced I saw and said hello to an apparition.
Got into an abandoned hospital (Blackburn Infirmary) to photograph it before it was demolished. Was with a friend.
Climbed through a first floor window and as I was coming through looked up to see a man walking across the ward from right to left, said "oh, sorry, hello!" assuming it was another photographer we had interrupted. Then turned back round to the window to haul friend through. She looked over my shoulder and said "Hi" and nodded a greeting.
By the time we had tlooked up again from picking up our backpacks from the floor and survey the room, he was gone.
There wasn't enough time for him to cross the rest of the ward in the time it took us to turn and pick up a bag, it was a couple of seconds max.
There was no exit door in the direction i'd seen him heading in (left wall was a wall, right wall had the door, he was crossing R-L and was in the middle of the room)
The weirdest thing was that when we took a step forwards into the ward, our feet were crunching on all the rubble plaster glass etc that was strewn everywhere but he was crossing in absolute silence, no crunching.
Double checked with friend that she had seen him, and she had, hence the hi to him and not me.

Went round the hospital for the rest of the day taking photos and there was nobody there but us.
