My wife left for the State Fair every year to show horses. She'd leave early in the week, I'd finish work and met her there late in the week.

One year on the morning I was to leave I was getting ready to go to work (would leave after) I talked to myself to help me remember a couple things later. I walked by our programmable thermostat and said out loud that I needed to remember to set it up 10 degrees before I left. Also as I put my stuff together to pick up after work and leave for the fair I set my bag on the bed and a hat next to it and said out loud "take this hat with me."

When I got home the thermostat was set to where I was going to put it and the hat was balanced on the corner of the bed where there was no way I could miss it.

A couple years later we re-painted the front door and took of the "Moritz" name plate on it off and nothing ever happened again.

Mother ****ER, I gotta get a helper ghost. That would help so much!

"come to bed sweety, I'm waiting for you to turn out the light"

It was pretty cool. The only annoyances were when the tv remote was found in the freezer now and then.

The computer I'm using now is about 15' from where the previous owner of this home died. It's dark in here right now.

I kind of wondered if we'd have a boogie man as several people from that family died here....but nothing.

More fail. Nice try though, really. Things don't freak me out in my own apt even if it is next door to a funeral home.

I've told my story here before.

I'm not saying I believe whole-heartedly...

If you're confident of your lucidity at the time, you should.

Science only explains half of our experience, i'm sure you know that.

Maybe you think I'm all in on this stuff happening all the time.... heh.

Like I said to Rain Man earlier in the thread... I think we're short-sighted if we think what we know is all there is. At the same time my own knowledge of the buildings history could have clouded my subconscience.

Anything is possible and I'll never deny that.

I'd still take that.

Please feel free to tell it again for those of us who missed it. Seriously.

It would have made sense if kiddo could have reached the freezer at the time but she couldn't. We tested her.

That sounds like sleep paralysis. Hallucinations are common in that transitional period between wakefulness and sleep.

I have personally experienced sleep paralysis a handful of times. Freaky stuff. Wake up, can't move, at all. Can't call for help. Just slowly come out of it after something like the longest 5 minutes of your life.

It's almost like sleeping on your arm funny making it fall asleep to the point where you have zero control of your hand. Only without the tingly feeling. Then it slowly comes back.
