yes i was staying friends granny's house. went to bed late just falling asleep when suddenly i felt like someone was in the room. a man was standing at the end of my bed and i knew his name was george, and he was playing with his hands in an odd way not sure how i knew how but i did then i fell asleep.

told my friend and her granny the next day, i also recalled what he was wearing and the playing with his hands her granny nearly passed out it was her father, my friend may have mentioned him but not often as he died before she was born, but i never knew his name until he somehow he told me. before he died he duffered from dementia and would rub his hands together constantly

Yep - Many years ago i lived in a hostel for young parents, that was originally a car home for the elderly that had been converted. I was heavily pregnant, and could hear some one walking about outside at about 3.20am (was looking at the clock) and said (in my head) thinking it might be something spooky, just to pacify myself really - if there's anything out there, just show yourself- and a woman walked into my room, and went into the kitchen (which i could see from my bed) I was just about to ask who the hell she was, and what the hell she was doing in my room (didn't realize she was a ghostly thing) when she vanished. I was so scared i had to call my friend, who's husband came and got me.

Yes, Our smoke alarm keeps going off at random times. Middle of the night, during the day...and always at different times and for varying lengths of time, almost as if someone is pushing the button to be funny.

DF does not believe in ghosts...or at least he didn't til a few weeks ago. I was having a shower after the baby had gone to bed and vaugely heard DS begin to cry. I poked my head out of the shower and he had stopped. I assumed DF was with him.

I came down after my shower and DF was still playstation-ing. He asked me if I had gone in to DS, I said no, I had been in the shower. DF went a bit pale. Apparently he had heard someone shushing the baby and singing to him!!

The most profoud experience I have had though was just over a year ago. DF was in a car crash that should have killed him outright. He got one cut that needed stitches and a few bruises. On my way to the hospital, and I swear every word of this is true, my mother, step-dad and I all saw, standing right by the side of the dual carriageway, a pure white stag. It was massive and seemed to be lit up more than it should have been.

I have since worked out the dates for DS, I would have literally been about 3-5 days pregnant at that point...

I can post his car crash pics to my profile if anyone wants to see?

[kangers]

having lost mil today and dh in woods tonight you are really scaring me. I just to know she is not suffering. Dh believes she is in heaven. what / where does ghost stuff fit?

[TakeMeDrunkImHome]

LadyFlump - do post the pics to your profile. That's quite profound. White stag perhaps guardian of some kind.

[kangers]

ladyflumpalot do not disbelieve you but interested to see pics.

[TakeMeDrunkImHome]

kangers - I wouldn't be scared. I am sorry about your MIL.

For me, the things/people I see are either here for a reason, something unfinished or they are visiting places they were happy/people they love. IMHO heaven is real, no idea in what way and wouldn't even dare to imagine.

[kangers]

thanks tmdih
hope she is there
really sads that dh has no mum hee anymore

[kangers]

sad here

[TakeMeDrunkImHome]

Sorry, I keep posting before I have finished yapping

Also believe that in some circumstances it isn't a "ghost" it is more of an imprint of a person or a situation.

thats amazing ladyflump, my nanna was left for dead after being knocked over, she had horrific injuries and was in a coma for a few weeks afterwards. After a few year she started to talk about her near death experience, then a few year after that she started to experience visions as if she lived in a previous life, maybe victorian.

[kangers]

That's easier to understand.
Someone told my dh that this life is the dream and that what comes next is 'real' but not in a matrix kind of way.

[devientenigma]

kangers and hugs

[devientenigma]

omg ladyflump those pics are awful, he must have had some guardian angels

[TakeMeDrunkImHome]

Wow Flump those are some scary pictures.

[kangers]

devient that is also amazing.
I had a fiend who had terrible car accident and subsequent op to repair her. Her nde experience involved travelling in awell known area in her car, and then thinking, 'if I go down that road I will not return' she turned back and when came round the docs said she nearly died- heart sytopped and BP V low- but they managed to revive- she had lost a lot of blood.

[LadyFlumpalot]

I was just going to say - done! But I see you lot have already seen! There are three of them. DF will not be happy if I post the ones of him in hospital as he looks a right state.

[kangers]

how do I see pics- sorry to be thick

[LadyFlumpalot]

Your DS is just ever so beautiful, Lady Flump. :)

I am amazed your DF survived that crash. That is truly extraordinary.

I have had many supernatural experiences, some of which i have detailed at times on MN under my various names. We currently live with the ghost of an old man. He smokes and wheezes and sits on the bed and is generally fine and benign. We have alot of guests in our place (family and occasionally we let it out during summer) and many people see him. I have not seen him for a bit though.

More recently though- last Xmas day, I was the first person up and went downstairs to start the turkey. The whole house smelled of violets. I walked around the house trying to find where the smell was coming from and could not. it was so strong. (It was DS's first Xmas, incidentally). It was odd, and i kept walking around. Then DH got up and the first thing he said was 'where did you get that perfume?' I told him I could not find it, and he insisted 'no, my mother's perfume, where did you get it?'. His mother died about 9-10 years ago. He insisted I had somehow bought her perfume, and wanted to know where I had gotten it from. That was pretty profound for us. We live in the middle of nowhere, and aside from me there were only men in the house, so it was not a scent that had been brought in by anyone, IFSWIM.

[LadyFlumpalot]

Oh thank you SpringFollows

We don't know still how he got out alive. His car was even taken to the police yard as they thought they would be investigating a fatality. The paramedic told me they thought they had a "magic hour" case and had him air-lifted.

Round these 'ere parts is very local so all the fire-fighters are retained. I know lots of them so have heard first hand from them what their impressions were. Not one of them expected DF to be alive. They all knew exactly whose car it was as well.

Kangers I'm sorry for your loss. (((Hugs)))

[kangers]

seen pic ladyflumpalot- incredible- as is your post baby figure- v impressed. The violets pefume is weid- this is quite a common thing isn't it- smelling someone. I wonder why?

[FreudianSlipper]

sorry to hear about your mil kangers, i think often ghosts come to give messages or just to show they are there and some people are more inclined to see them than others.

LadyF how incredible that your dh survived agree he must have a guardian angel

[kangers]

ladyflumpalot and devientenigma thanks for tea and hugs- could do with DH being here instead of woods as feel a bit freaked out. Anyway- MN hellping as ever.

[BootyMum]

LadyFlump what is the secret to your post pregnancy figure? I have a 4 month old baby and still look 3 months preggers!

And ahem, now back to other paranormal experiences...
