The Housemaid’s Curse

Insightful Psychics RSS — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 05:20:13 +0000

"My grandparents have taken many trips across the world," reports orangefrog. "A couple years ago, before hurricane Katrina, they took a trip to New Orleans. They decided to stay at one of the bed and breakfasts there. The first morning, they awoke and went down for breakfast. The housemaid graciously served my grandfather, but when it came to my grandmother, she threw the juice in her lap and broke the tea kettle on the floor next to her. The maid glared at my poor grandmother and screamed in a shrill, almost inhuman voice, 'God is going to get you!' Then she threw down her apron and ran screaming out of building...." Do curses really work? Or do they only work if you believe they will? Read the rest of the story and decide for yourself.

Insightful Psychics RSS — Thu, 11 Feb 2010 04:40:49 +0000

Is there an exact double of you walking around out there? Maybe you've seen him or her. Or perhaps your friends have. Or maybe you've seen an exact double of a relative or friend when you're sure it could not have been the person you know. These are cases of doppelgangers -- mysterious people who look just like us... but are not us! What's going on? Consider these true accounts.

Grim Reaper Visit

Insightful Psychics RSS — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 02:47:46 +0000

"This happened to me last night (January 12, 2010 - Gold Coast, Australia) and I have tried searching all over the net to try and get some rational about what I saw or why I saw it," says Nikki. "I woke at 2:00 a.m. to see what looked to be the traditional Grim Reaper! It stood in the doorway of my bedroom with its hooded head touching the top of the door frame...." But the Grim Reaper is just a fabrication, isn't it? Read the rest of Nikki's story.
And if it's a fabrication, why are so many people seeing it? Such as...

READER REPORT: Deathbed Vision

Insightful Psychics RSS — Sat, 06 Feb 2010 21:24:08 +0000

"Two days ago, my father passed away after a very long, painful, and slow cancer," reports Leszek. "Just before the moment that he died, I was at his bed in our home with my mother. We noticed that he stopped breathing, and that he kind of opened his eyes, much more clearly, gave one look at me, and one look at my mother. Just as we wanted to panic, his eyes -- very clearly, and with precise coardination -- rolled up to the top corner of the room behind me. They kept following something, until this something stopped in front of him, almost on top of him. His eyes, were clearly seeing something, and he looked very surprised or maybe even scared. In exactly the same moment, he seemed to feel something coming straight at him, and that is when he got a heart attack. Two seconds later he continued to look at this thing, much more peacefully now, and he got a second attack. After this, he started dying, and his eyes were closing fading away. Everything seemed very relaxed. About a week before his death, he was speaking about two or three of our dead family memebers, telling my mother that 'Tommorow they are going to work.'"
Thanks, Leszek. The deathbed vision phenomenon is quite fascinating and more common than you might think. We can't know with utmost certainty whether the dying are seeing passed loved ones coming for them, or if it is just an illusion. But there is some compelling anecdotal evidence for the former, which you can read about in these articles:

READER REPORT: The Zozo Phenomenon

Insightful Psychics RSS — Thu, 04 Feb 2010 02:49:28 +0000

"I was recently invited to Darkness Radio to discuss my experiences with the spirit Zozo, that comes to people through Ouija sessions," says Darren Evans. "My interview is on their website, and on my Zozo site at ZozoTheOuijaSpirit.Blogspot.com. I mentioned that I believed many other people were being harassed by this entity. Then a week later, John Zaffis came on the show to reveal that he is investigating three separate Zozo hauntings! It seems to give validity to my theories on this phenomena. I have put together a video podcast of part of the interview with Zaffis. Some of my Zozo stories have caught the attention of many people as a result of you posting them on About.com I thank you for that."
Darren, thanks for the links. Zozo and the Ouija certainly is an interesting phenomenon that seems to be becoming more widespread. Some think it is a demon, evil spirit or lower elemental that is making itself known through the Ouija. Others feel that it is spreading through the power of suggestion (people who have heard the Zozo stories then "encounter" it during a Ouija session). In either case, the experiences are almost always negative in nature, and because they are becoming more common they merit further investigation. As you metioned, several readers have told their Zozo experiences on this website. Here are some of them:

Journeys into the Hollow Earth

Insightful Psychics RSS — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:50:24 +0000

If you were to fly north from New York City, across Canada directly to the Earth's physical North Pole, then kept going straight... you'd end up somewhere in Russia, right? Not necessarily, say those who believe the Earth is hollow. Why? Because there's a big gaping hole at the North Pole, they allege, and if you'd fly (or walk, for that matter) across the pole, you'd find yourself entering the interior of the planet.

American Paranormal: Bigfoot

Insightful Psychics RSS — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 05:50:24 +0000

If you get a chance, be sure to catch the episode of American Paranormal (a new series on the National Geographic channel) on Bigfoot. It's quite good and presents new evidence in the form of a thorough, expert analysis of the famed Patterson-Gimlin film. They pretty much prove, to my satisfaction at least, that the creature in the film could not have been a man in a suit. Physically, anatomically and costume-wise, it's just not possible. I highly recommend checking it out. If this first episode is any indication of what this new series is going to be like, it's going to be great!American Paranormal: Bigfoot originally appeared on About.com Paranormal Phenomena on Monday, February 1st, 2010 at 22:40:41.

Picton Ghost Photo Analysis

Photo: Renee English
In January, 2010, this photo, taken by Renee English, was widely publicized as possibly showing two ghosts of children. It was taken in St. Mark's Cemetery in Picton, NSW, Australia on January 9, 2010. The cemetery has a reputation for being haunted. According to local legend, the two children might be David Shaw and Blanche Moon, who died 60 years apart. There are some anomalies and elements in this photo worth examining. This analysis won't (can't) prove whether or not the children in the photos are ghosts, but let's take a closer look.Picton Ghost Photo Analysis originally appeared on About.com Paranormal Phenomena on Friday, January 29th, 2010 at 10:58:00.

Personal encounters with UFOs and possible abductions are among the most puzzling and frightening experiences in paranormal records. It's not just the sighting of the unusual aerial craft, it's the accompanying high strangeness. In the case of Paul Schroeder, his encounter was followed by poltergeist activity, telepathy and other unexplained events - all of which question the true nature and meaning of these "alien" experiences. This is Paul's story.The Night of Unseen Entities originally appeared on About.com Paranormal Phenomena on Monday, January 25th, 2010 at 20:57:12.

Ghost Swing

Insightful Psychics RSS — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 05:16:22 +0000

"Back in May of 1997, my daughter was just born," reports Kristol. "I woke to her needing a bottle around 5:30 a.m. I went in the kitchen and put the bottle in the microwave. We had a large picture window in the kitchen that overlooked the backyard. I stood and looked out the window while the bottle was warming. I saw someone on our swing set. I thought, Who is out there at this time of morning? That's when I saw it was just a gray transparent image of a woman wearing a blouse and a skirt that went to her ankles. She was pushing a child on the swing...." Think that's not too unusual? Think again!

READER QUESTION: Why Can’t I See Ghosts?

"I am your average 52-year-old male," says Paul. "I watch the paranormal shows on TV. My question is: Why can't I see spirits or feel spirits? I would like to. Is there anything I can do to increase my own ability to see or hear spirits? I guess what I am asking is, Do I have any control at all? Can I learn it? Am I doing somthing wrong?"

Answer: Paul, you are not doing anything wrong. The truth is, it is very difficult to see spirits or ghosts. Even most people who have been ghost investigators their entire lives have never directly seen or experienced a ghost. However....

Mothman in Texas

Insightful Psychics RSS — Tue, 19 Jan 2010 07:46:21 +0000

"Driving on FM 157 between Venus and Mansfield, Texas, my daughter and I were on our way to Walmart," reports Melissa. "It was sometime in the Fall of 2007 around dusk. From my left, something in the sky caught my eye. As it got nearer, it looked like a human-like form with wings attached. Never once flapping its wings, it glided toward us, so close to the top of our car, it seemed as though it would land on top of our car. It looked dark brown or black, somewhere between the texture of a toe sack and leather, kind of raggedy and worn looking...." What was it Melissa saw? Read the rest of her story.

And although some scientists think that it might be at least theoretically possible to travel through time, no one (as far as we know) has devised a sure-fire way to make it happen. But that's not to say that people haven't reported traveling through time. There are many fascinating anecdotes from those who say they seem to have quite unexpectedly visited - if only briefly - another time and, sometimes, another place. Here are some interesting cases that will keep you wondering.Time Travelers originally appeared on About.com Paranormal Phenomena on Saturday, January 16th, 2010 at 12:11:13.

Gravestone Phantoms

"One day, I was driving with three of my friends," reports Rich. "It was a strange day already, but nothing could've prepared us for what we saw next. We were on a lonely stretch out in the country with barren cornfields on either side of us. My girlfriend suddenly said, 'Whats that?' We saw in the distance a big white spot on the right side of the road. As we neared, we saw movement and it became apparent that the white thing was hundreds of white gravestones...."
