Welcome to Gaia! ::

Has anything weird ever happen to you? A smell that you know stayed in a spot for more then a week or a strange comfertaing presence that stays with you to make sure your safe? This is where we will discuss the paranormal activities that have been going on in your life and get you some help on whats going on.

This is my story of the first sighting I had to change to way I thought about the dead and deceased.

It was about two years, my senior year and I was at the bus stop. A girl walked up but stopped half way her eyes going a bit wide as she nodded slightly, I couldn't see anything at first so I shrugged it off.

I come to find out this girls name is Minomi and she came from Japan, well not only did her family come from Japan but her ghost friend as well. I was a bit skeptical at first before I said this to him. She told me he had placed his hand on her shoulder in recognition of me.

"Hey, ghost guy follow me to school!" It was then that I realized what I said and began to laugh a bit. When the bus came I sat down in one of the front seats and Minami behind me, the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end as I looked around the bus. It felt like someone was watching me, then I laughed nervously because their were other kids on the bus and I pushed it to the back of my mind.

In the class room for Math/Algebra I felt the hairs on my neck stand on end again, looking back at the computers I couldn't belive my eyes, in gray wispy smoke was an outline of someone. It only stayed for a second or so before disolving, turning to my friend in that class I asked her to look behind me and she said nothing was there.

Busy at work on a work sheet, someone snapped closed a wooden box loudly making me jump. My friend turned to me and we both turned back to see no one had a wooden box not even the teacher at her desk either.

The day crawled by slowly and soon it inched forward for me to go to chorus. Thats when I saw, near the door a gray shadows, Minami saw them as well telling me it was the male ghost that followed her. Well, we got up from our seats to sing and when we went backl after a moment or two my bookbag had been moved from its spot on the floor from in front of the chair to the back of it on the floor.

Next class started, which was typing, there I had seen the gray shadows again near the rear door of the class and felt like someone was staring at me. Thats how it went all day.

A few weeks later my friend comes crying to the bus stop, I'm hugging her and trying to hear what she is saying inbetween sobs. Her parents had gone out to a party that night and left her and her brother alone.
She was in the shower when a loud bang noise had her skurrying out of the bathroom in a towel and down the carpeted steps, when out of the blue she tripped falling halfway down the stairs.

When she came to her friend, which we both call Jasper, had his hand out streatched for her to take and was on one of his knees trying to help her up. She screamed bloody murder and fainted.

Waking a second time her brother came from the kitchen and looked at her on the ground were she lay in front of the steps, asking how in the world she got there. I deduced that Jasper braught her down the stairs because he was worried about her.

Now, Minami was scared of him, oh so scared after that happened.

"Want me to get rid of him for you?" I had finally asked when she was done, shaking her head vigarisly I nodded to her.

That day when I got home I waited until night time before praying God to exhcnage one of my Angels for Jasper. That night I talked with him.

"You can stay with me or you can leave. The choice is yours and you can hold me to that." Is what I said and rolled over to go to sleep.

Its been two years since that day and Jasper stayed me of his own free will. I also acumulated Angels, and totem animals along the way of my ghostly journeys. By seeing Jasper, it opened up a key door in me that allows me to see some ghosts and talk with them. Please share your experiences with me and others. ^_^

ive never had really a close experience with a human ghost, but i have felt their presence, and ive seen them in the hallways. but when i was very young i had experiences with anmial spirits, mostly dogs. or at least i think they were ghosts. i dont think they were spirit guides. but ANYWAY. when i was little there was the spirit of a dog that followed me. i didnt see him all the time, but i knew he was there. sometimes i would see him and just sit there looking at him. for some reason i never approched him, but he made me feel safe. ^.^

you ant a ghostly experience, spend a night in the Queen Mary or the Winchester House *shivers*

In reply to the poll, the reason most of us havent gotten a picture of the ghost is becuase the ratio of orbs/energy and the feeling of a nearby ghost to one actually assuming a form is almost 100 to 1, and If you managed to see a figure, odds are you dont have a camera. Pictures are very difficult and some times are completely by accident.

I have never seen a ghost. But I've felt a few, if you understand what I mean.... sweatdrop

Well my dad's side of the family lives in Kentucky. (Hillbilly area) All the buildings there are very old and I personally believe that it's an equivalent of any other paranormal area New Orleans for example.

Anyways, I was staying in my grandma's house. While staying up till 1 a.m. to watch Adult Swim as I usually do. I saw something glint out of the corner of my eye and while I was looking at it I all of a sudden got the feeling of something like sitting on me. I just started shaking and I could breathe and after about 10 seconds it was gone. To this day I haven't been able to go anywhere near that couch.

Thats good to know, maybe I'll visit some time to see what its like. =3

Then pet a cat! Lol! XD
