When I was really young, about 12 or so, I had the whole house to myself. So naturally, I stayed up as long as I could playing videogames.
Now our house was one of the oldest in town, it was awful, it was so old it had different types of timber floors from different years, some of which had holes you could look underneath the house. It was so old that the whole house itself was on a slight lean. If you put a ball on one side of the dining room, it’ll slowly roll down to the other side.
My computer was also in the dining room, at the part that wasn’t leaning. It was late at night, and I heard a scratching noise. I turned around and saw one of the dining room chairs slowly make its way up towards me, moving by itself until it sat right besides me.
I promptly went to bed.
Smart move, sounds like the resident ghost wanted quiet time.
i like to think they were someone from the early 1800’s, wanting to know more about this “computer”
And you went to bed instead of showing the computer to them. Kinda rude. They were probably disappointed.
probably why they placed a cursed on me
Thats crazy! Some things we just don’t understand about the world.
My brother and I witnessed a triangle-shaped craft with red solid lights on it cruise over our house silently with three black hawk helicopters following it closely. Flew super low and fast over our neighborhood, probably a thousand feet or less.
Super strange, to this day we still talk about it sometimes and it’s a little freaky.
Especially crazy in light of all the UFO news recently
My wife got pregnant
one night while i was laying in bed wide awake, i felt myself fall. like a quarter inch. i was lying flat on the bed and i wasn’t moving at all, but somehow i fell as if i like teleported a quarter inch into the air
I wonder if it was a hypnic jerk. Brains are weird so maybe your brain made it feel like instead of just jerking in bed (that’s what she said) you had fallen and the sense of hitting the cushions was you landing. I know I get hypnic jerks every few months and they always startle me.
I get this falling feeling very regularly, like nearly night. You get used to it and now it’s like an indicator for me that I’m about to fall asleep.
I still find the fact that I managed to graduate from uni and a full time job pretty fucking weird… Especially considering I could never see my self in the daily 9-5 grind before and was honestly fearing I wouldn’t last long.
I’m in bed right now, writing this comment on my phone. Just a few minutes ago, I saw a bunch of little lights flashing on my alarm clock, in places where it doesn’t have any lights. Then I noticed that the alarm had accidentally been turned on and would have interrupted my sleep. And no, there isn’t anything behind it with lights, either. I seriously cannot explain what just happened, at least not in any way that isn’t wildly improbable.
I got laid off as part of a mass layoff being in an Ag field here in the states. Explain that!!
For several years as a kid, i would wake up every night at exactly 3:30 am and see several silhouettes of tall humanoid figures standing in my door way. After closing and opening my eyes a few times they would be gone. At first i thought it was a dream, but i would literally pinch myself so hard i would have bruises on my arms the next day. I was always too scared to scream, and never mentioned it to my parents. It never happened when i was sleeping somewhere else, or if friends slept over.
In my 20’s, I finally told my mom about what i saw all those years ago. She was shocked and claimed to have seen the same thing around the same time when we lived in that house. Whenever she told my dad he didn’t believe her. She believes it was spirits, but i always felt it was aliens. Today i have no idea what it was. I try to rationalize it as Sleep Paralysis but i truly have no idea.
