I studied the ghost phenomena for years, in an attempt to discover what this was. I now believe it was a non-human entity, that was attracted to the darkness in me. I think it showed itself as a way of frightening me, and empowering itself.
These experiences continued for several years, until I dealt with the bitterness and unforgiveness in my heart. Now, as I have said, I feel only benevolence around me.

Well, now that I read your comment again, I guess not. I think a lot of people think that Ouija is bad, but I don't. It's like a gun. You handle the power of it responsibly or irresponsibly. I handled one irresponsibly and, accompanied by my darkness, attracted this thing.

I cherish it now, though for many years it bedeviled me.

You and I have similar thoughts about the spirit world. I think they are as prevalent as we are- everywhere. Not only that, but they can transport themselves with the power of thought, and penetrate matter that we cannot.
But, I also believe that we magnetize ourselves positively or negatively by our attitudes and emotions, and spirits are drawn to and link up to them, to synergize the experience.
Thanks for the thoughtful comment.

I tried very hard to scream. Only a 'uh-uh-uh' came out. I was literally scared speechless. It's never happened before or since.

It was at the time. I've learned a lot since then, though. Nothing can happen to you without your having asked for it.

Me, too. I'm a spirit magnet. Learning how to control myself has been of utmost importance. I feel nothing but good beings around me now.

I've been doing divination for many years now. I don't believe it's the object that attracts these experiences, but one's mindset. I was listening to Black Sabbath, and my heart was full of anger and hatred. That, on top of having natural psychic abilities, contributed to these events.

I just love a good ghost story. I believe this thing, whatever it was, attached itself to me and decided to show itself. I literally had insomnia for months following this encounter.

That is a very scary event. It is my belief that the environment around us is full of such spirits who rarely manifest themselves. They cannot perform on their own, they need a body to attach to or come into to do their work. They do this when we open the door. There are many ways one can do this. Frank Peritti is the best writer on this sort of thing. (His work is fiction-there are many good studies available) Just some of his works are
This Present Darkness, Piercing the Darkness, The Visitor, The Oath and The Prophet. Please don't take this as anything but what I believe. I am not here spreading any kind of ugliness. Just responding to what you wrote which would have scared me beyond belief.

I had a
few similar experiences when growing up. Only one of them frightened me. The others were all calming. I've been told that my aura attracts them. I don't know but I do seem to have a sense when something's not right. That's one reason I don't mess with a Ouija board and any rituals I perform (I'm a Wicca) are done in a protective circle.

when I was near ten years old in bed sleeping, I awoke to talking. leaning over the foot of the bed were two ghostly figures.One a man who looked like my father with a white mark over his left eye, and a small girl who looked to be my age. I kicked the sheets then hid under covers till light.Within the same year I was sleeping and woke to a dark chanting, this one was leaning over the bed with an evil look, not as haunting as a ghoul.I kicked the sheets and hid under them again until morning. I told mom on both mornings,she believed me I think.
The first experience was a good presence I think, but I was still frightened.I recently read in a book by a pshychic that on the otherside everyone looks as they are at age thirty, I remember this because of the small girl.
