PTSD from Tinder Ghosting

So I don’t know if anyone here has been following this so I apologise if there’s already been threads about it, but if not I wondered what people thought of all the online talk about supernatural forces causing trauma by using online dating to lure women into especially spirit receptive locations, then abuse them in supernatural ways. “ghost in the machine” I think is the phrase when a spirit uses technology in this way. Makes sense when you think about it, why wouldn’t bad spirits adapt to a technological world just like they adapted and haunted ships and aeroplanes etc? It’s logical when you think about my it.

I read several really traumatic accounts from women that had met a man they came to know as “Daniel” on tinder and went to a location to meet him (which was a house in Yorkshire) where once they arrived they were greeted by “Daniel” and he let them into the house, but then he disappeared and the door slammed shut and wouldn’t open. Then for the rest of the night they were haunted in the dark by voices of Demons calling themselves “Legion” and then at last once the women were really frightened the Demons took physical form and basically gang banged the women for hours until dawn. All the women said they kind of just woke up in morning and the door was open and they were in a derelict house.

Not surprisingly all of the women have PTSD about this as well as trauma from being mocked by people who don’t believe them (which I think is really nasty considering the assualt element)

I just wondered if anyone had had any experiences like this or knew anyone who had? And what they made of the whole thing? Also do you think Spirits are now being influence by online misogynistic dating culture and it’s radicalising them to do these kind of extreme hauntings?

I don’t know maybe I wouldn’t use tinder or other popular apps but would use a smaller app for now for safety. I don’t know

@RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie mnhq must be ghosting you 👻

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 20/08/2022 16:21

I thought I felt a certain chill around my nether regions.

Interested in this thread?

It sounds like you'd feel a bit more than that, if OP's right

Why the hell are MN allowing this thread to continue???? Reported AGAIN.

I'd have a little boo-hoo if this thread got deleted, in fact, you could say it would really dampen my spirits.

Blue4YOU · 20/08/2022 16:31

I’m wondering if the spirits were really Jack Daniels, Jim Beam, Captain Morgan, Victor Vodka …

Leafy3 · 20/08/2022 18:23

@RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie why shouldn't they? Its not harming anyone. And quite frankly , if you don't believe in ghosts or spirits that's fine but some people do and I would take issue with MN deleting a thread about someone's belief system that is harmless to other posters.

So you think the OP sounds a) genuine and b) entirely of sound mind?

DejaVoodoo · 20/08/2022 22:24

🤣🤣😂

I can’t even.

@DanielTheGhostGangbanger Only your bodily integrity. And the wood question is a good one, to be fair. No blood > no blood flow > no wood. And that's leaving aside the actual lack of flesh.

I mean according to Twilight, vampires have healthy blood flow and effective sperm. Why not ghosts? Open your mind a little.

Very true. I think most ghosts are just wispy, ethereal things, which must be quite frustrating for them, but then you do get your incubuses (incubi?) who must have won the ghost lottery, as they're fully shaggable.

Pixiedust1234 · 21/08/2022 09:04

Is this the modern version of alien auction by little green men?

No, it doesn't exist. However it can feel very real to the person who thinks its has happened.

Shade17 · 21/08/2022 09:18

I’ve heard about this too OP, you can protect yourself though - just make sure you have the latest version of Microsoft Séance installed on your PC.

Have people on this thread gone collectively mad? This is utter bollocks! Ghosts luring women through Tinder??

Have you actually read the replies on the thread? With the exception of one poster, everyone is quite clearly very aware that it is utter bollocks...

Zilla1 · 21/08/2022 11:19

Is it that the other world was radicalised by online misogyny or could incels and misogynists have been radicalised by the other world? We have the right to know. Could internet trolls be real trolls with time on their hands now footbridges over rivers and goat-based economies have been superseded by canals, railways and motorways?

felineweird · 21/08/2022 11:24

Jesus christ, if this really happened it was not demons, it was men drugging them

edwinbear · 21/08/2022 11:34

Where do ghosts keep their phones though? And how do they afford to buy them in the first place and pay the direct debit?

iklboo · 21/08/2022 13:14

Do they use Ghoulgle Maps to find the place?

So ghosts can completely change how houses appear, make people use the internet (or use it themselves) to lure people back to 'their' house then they get kicks out of 'haunting' people before becoming physical beings and gang raping women - surprise surprise it's never gang raping men is it? I guess all ghosts are male and straight, bet they were white too.

However these ghosts can take physical form and completely change the appearance of large buildings and can use the internet to do whatever they like but for some reason choose to confine themselves to one house in a location that no doubt none of the 'women' actually ever reveals.

Just listen to yourself OP, does this sound in any way feasible to you? Why would these ghosts not be roaming freely in society, all over the place causing complete pandemonium everywhere. They can literally do anything they like with no repercussions. I mean maybe I could have been half convinced of this at 15 but we're all grown ups now aren't we? And no even if I believed in ghosts I wouldn't believe this sort of internet nonsense. It's right up there with stories of used needles being left in ball pits or cinema seats and pen letters that say you have to send a copy to five people or you'll be cursed.

Afternoon ladies, a man here! Well, men. Pronouns they/them.

@DanielTheGhostGangbanger FFS, I told you to stick to Tinder!!! This lot on here are vipers, and they've got the Mumsnet Mafia. Now stop messing about and do what you were told to!

As you were ladies, carry on.

Sorry @MyNameIsLegionForIAmMany I've only just seen this.

Spent the last 24 hours trying to clean up all the ectoplasm. It does make such a frightful mess and gets everywhere.

I was only on Mumsnet for some cleaning tips from the Property & DIY boards.... I got distracted by posters implying all sorts about my demonic danglies not being in good working order.

My roaming data refreshes in the morning so I'll be hitting Tinder again. Get ready ladies, Daniel's back in town...
