Something evil..

Ok, long post but would like advice from someone who could advise..

When I was a young girl, around 4 so pre-school, I had something happen to me, my family are aware of it as I told both my Mum and Dad at the time. Mum was dismissive as she always was with me (narcissist) and Dad didn’t know what to do so said he believed me but was not proactive as such as he was unsure what to do.

It was a sunny spring morning and I remember being called by a voice, I was in the back room and the voice came from the front room, Mum was in the kitchen so didn’t see me walk through to the ‘out of bounds‘ to me ‘sitting room’ I remember wandering in and looking around before sitting near the bay window looking out at the street, all of a sudden I remember being pulled to the floor and having something lay on me, it was heavy and prevented me from moving as well as it hurting me.

This thing had a face but I remember replacing this face in my head as Tony the Tiger from the Frosties ad, less scary I suppose.. but then as time progressed I ran and hid whenever the advert was on tv or if I heard a motorbike as he rode one in the ad, and being hysterical.

As the years passed the memory has never faded but the fear of that room lessened, I avoided the room at all costs though.

My Dad still lives in the house but I rarely visit, it’s easier for him to visit us anyway, and if I do go inside always get a feeling of dread and utter dispair.

Fast forward to last October, Dad arrived at my house looking very unwell, this resulted in me calling 999 and he was rushed to hospital with what later turned out to be pneumonia.

I drove to his house to get him essentials, pj’s pants etc once it became clear he was staying in for a while. I collected the clothes, his glasses, a book etc and couldn’t find a bag to put it in other than his hobby bag which was kept in the front room.. now I must add that at this time I was worried sick about my Dad, my mind was racing with what to take for him, thinking about who I could ask to collect DD from school etc, I walked into the room carrying his things, sat on an armchair and took the things out of his bag in order to put his hospital things in when I heard a voice in my head, as clear as if someone had spoken out loud, “so you’re back then”
I stopped what I was doing and answered, also in my head I think, “yes, I am” immediately I got a reply “are you not scared?” to which I replied “ not anymore” it then replied “well, you should be”

I left the house in a heartbeat and took Dads things to the hospital but spoke to DH about it that evening. He didn’t really know what to say as he knows the history but also knows that I’m a rational person with no MH issues.

The next day (Saturday) my car just stopped as if someone had pulled the plug out as I was midway across a busy junction, thankfully nothing hit me, it was towed to the garage who could find absolutely nothing wrong with it.
On the Sunday I slipped and broke my ankle resulting in me loosing my income totally (self employed). There have been so many bizarre, unlucky things happening since then that a number of people have commented on how terrible my luck has been since this time..

My Dad has said that he has never had a problem in that room but on occasion he’s walked in there and the whole room has felt freezing cold, when this happens he just says out loud “don’t even think about messing with me” and walks out of the room.

I’ve thought about smudging the room but don’t want to mess with something that I don’t understand.

Sorry to hear about the ill health of your dad. Must be especially difficult in this current Covid climate x

I am following your thread with interest as owner of a haunted property. I have no mental health issues and believe what you write has happened.

I will write about my own property in another thread and just pull out any similarities with your situation here.

Firstly, I did get a Medium to visit my premises after several years of incidents, told him nothing other than I have a premises that has activity could he visit and give me his thoughts. What he said aligned with the incidents over the years. He would not accept any payment.

I burn sage in my building regularly. White sage. I have a terracotta pot , a large feather duster and a bell. This is a standard ritual if you look online. Do I look like a crack pot doing this? Yes, I do! It makes me feel like I have control over the building - I am the boss around here.

I’ve heard my name called maybe three times over ten years. I can identify exactly with what you say about it being in your head. It is not picked up by your ears but loud and always very clear in your head when no other noise around.

What is in my building is a man and a small child. The man was identified by the Medium in the location where another colleague saw a man walking up the stairs. This incident saw me driving 90 min round trip with a child late one evening to lock up and turn everything off as she had fled. It was this that prompted the Medium being called in.

We have a small boy in one of the rooms. Seen by another colleague and seen by two clients to the buildings.

I have never seen either of these, but I keep a log of incidents with times, days of the week and who was present in the building.

I have heard footsteps come upstairs, along the corridors and up another flight of stairs along with a colleague and a client. I have heard children running around with this same client.

2013/2014 had a car incident round the corner from work. Can only describe it as though someone else got a hold of the wheel and was jolting it from side to side trying to make me crash. With all my strength I had to fight to get on the kerb to run into the bushes. So bad was this that I called Highways to say I thought there might have been a spillage and also flagged down a police car before someone else did to report what they would have perceived to be a dangerous driver trying to take out several cars. I had it towed away to a garage and they found nothing. My mechanic friend also took a look. Nothing. Highways Agency said nothing on the road. This disturbs me several years on, but nothing similar has ever happened again; though I had the car scrapped shortly thereafter.

I would ask a Medium to come around. Maybe without you in the house and see what they say.

I have had similar experiences and I think these things - whatever they are - use fear as a way in. They are perhaps not powerful in themselves but they cultivate fear in you as a way of getting power over you. Kind of like spiritual bullying. You're dad is right to defy it. Bullies are usually cowards and weak at heart.

Yes to prayer. I'm not a Christian but I do think prayer helps.

I always like to remember that there is an ocean of light - much stronger than the ocean of dark.

Don't know what to make of your accidents. It could be coincidence. Could you find someone to give you a blessing (outside at 2 m)?

There's an excellent cleansing ritual by a poster called Rook Dygin on 'Your Ghost Stories' website. I have used it myself.

Hi op... just read the thread and sort to see your update. I wonder if there’s anyone you can get that would visit, socially distanced, in these circumstances before you move in. The last thing you need is this with caring for a terminally ill DF... I’m so sorry Flowers... otherwise, it sounds like you have done lots of looking into it. You can write or say you’d own house blessings and leg whatever it is know that you aren’t a small child now but a strong physical and spiritual being that is in charge and expects it to go? Just a thought.. on similar threads it seems that blessings and exerting control often is enough x

Sorry for lack of an update.

To cut a long story short things are beyond crap.

In the last month DH decided that he wants so have a trial separation and DF has been diagnosed with terminal cancer.

I’m moving in with DF in the very near future but not until the house has been cleansed.

It has been arranged but due to being in tier 3 is on hold.

How are things now lovely? How is your dad?
I think unless you've gone through a similar paranormal experience it's difficult for people to understand xxx

Why would an evil presence bother to warn you though? If it could do harm, it just would without the big announcement
It wants the op to worry.Drain her energy and make whatever it is stronger.

I hope op you get it sorted soon

Hi @Anywaythewindisblowing
Things seem calm atm, Dad is home alone and not bothered by the entity.

I’m spending my furlough learning about how to deal with it (I think I’m almost there now) when life returns to some semblance of normal.

I’m still considering ringing the church back and will do in a heartbeat if things don’t go to plan.

I hope you’re all keeping well.

Op I’m Greek & whenever most Greeks move house or have renovations we get the priest to come over to do a blessing.

Good luck.

I have a friend in the Eastern US coast who had the presence of two entities in his weekend home. They couldn’t sleep as something banged doors and turned on lights all night. He hired a priest, a medium, and a spiritualist. The latter two came together. They told him two previous owners were there, and were unhappy with changes he made to the property.

The medium and spiritualist did two clean songs on two separate weekends. The priest did a blessing on a third weekend. Since then, about a year ago, the spirits haven’t bothered him.

My friend is an atheist and didn’t believe in ghosts/spirits. He now says he doesn’t know what was there, or what he believes, but whatever his “hired guns” did has worked to date.

@Nearly
Thank you for thinking of me, and my Dad, he lives alone and I hate not being able to see him atm, other than leaving his groceries in his porch and then standing at the end of his drive.

I really miss him being a semi- permanent fixture in my kitchen!

Unfortunately I’m in the shielding category and he’s in the vulnerable group so goodness knows when I’ll be able to see him properly. We speak daily but it’s not the same at all.

Thank you for believing me, I know how it sounds!

@Therewere5inthebed, hey 😊 Glad to hear things are a bit better for your dad , that's good news. I can only imagine how you must be feeling, and even then its probably nothing like how you feel, but I truly hope the Church can help and settles everything down. Give ur dad a hug from me.
P.s I believe you too.

@Smartanimal,
I don’t know! I’ve never heard a voice in my head other than my own before this, it knocked me sideways. I’m a perfectly sane person! Honestly!

@NotNowPlzz
Thank you for believing, I totally understand that it’s hard for people to believe unless they’ve experienced something themselves and I certainly don’t need validation, I know exactly what happened in both occasions however sometimes someone saying that they believe you is comforting.
I also had no idea until it happened that you converse with spirits in your head and I’m glad that you understand. It has been difficult trying to explain it to people as I didn’t know that that was how it worked.

I’m hopeful that it will be sorted out first time.. if not I will take things further. The response I got surprised me though, I really expected the church to deny but there were no denials at all, they sounded concerned and told me to ring back if it escalated before they were able to attend.

It has helped me to find my spiritual path, although I feel I would have found my path or it would have found me at some point anyway.

@Smartanimal that's where you converse with all spirits, your mind. You can clearly judge what's you and what's not

If you dont have any luck with the first church try another. The individual pastors or vicars are all at different levels of spiritual things. Some are very powerful others couldn't banish a sausage. They should pray over you as well as the room.

If it's encouraging your own journey all the better.

I 100% believe you.

If this thing is real, how come you are conversing with it in your own head? You said the voice came from within your head. Can you explain that?
