I do alot of deep thinking, I think it helps to keep the mind sharp. Over the past 15 years of studying the Paranormal, investigating places like Cemeteries, Houses, I feel that all places are Haunted, everywhere I go is Haunted.
So, Im setting in my easy chair, eyes closed thinking about LIfe after Death, and Ive come to believe that it may not be a bad place, remember all the EVP's we get, all our experiences with earthbound spirits?, and I think about how our spirit, soul, who we are, doesnt appear to change once we leave our bodies, we seem to stay the same, except that we dont have a host to carry our soul around in. While Im NOT in any hurry to become a spirit, I feel comforted that it doesnt appear we will float around in some dark, black jello for eternity.
Since it appears that Most spirits are intelligent ones, this leads me to the question, What will YOU be doing as a Spirit?. Haunting the Ex wife?, Maybe become Prankster around Kids, or some families Home?. Or just roam the earth, stop in at someones home and cause alittle chaos, forcing that family to call up future Ghost Hunters to investigate you?. Maybe hang out in the girls Locker room?, Might be where you will find me. I do know that there are incestors long gone that I want to meet, talk to.
Just a thought..

Well, I have to agree now that I think more about it, Working in a very negative enviroment can cause people to become real Jerks, and be really stupid. Thats hard for me to say, but its true.

Nah, this is a newer house, but it doesnt matter how old a house is, you can get haunts in any house. Spooks are everywhere, doesnt matter if their old spooks from 100 years past, or one from yesterdays funeral. You have to think about how many people have died since this nation became a nation. I bet there are millions and millions of earthbound spirits.
If you have negative feelings in your home, put up crosses, have the house blessed.
This is just my opinion, others may have different ones. but, I think alot of Ghost Hunters who want to help People can give a false sense of hope to those families who have a Ghost Problem. Ghost Hunters simply go to a place to verify they have a problem. but I base my opinion on this, no matter what you do, what you say, if a spook doesnt want to leave, theres not much you can do about it. You can ask nicely, and respectfully for the spook to leave, but its ultimately up to them. Now Im sure there are some success stories, but thats probably due to them being asked nicely to leave the home, and they complied. But theres nothing to keep one from coming back.
I dont think spooks ever leave someones home, we all have them, there everywhere Toby, some you hear, some you dont. They come and go and you never know they are there.

Well Toby, honestly, Im not really worried about it none, I knew what I was getting into way back in 1996 when I started messing with EVP's, and Cemeteries, since then, for me, and whereever I live, its worse than a Bus Station as far as Spooks that come and go, I aint trying to be funny, but at any given time, I can turn on my Recorder, and get an EVP here in the house, Ive done it while setting here typing a reply to YOU. Ive gotten anywhere from a Kid giggling, and what sounds like a nasty women ordering me to "Come here NOW", actually got that one about 2 months ago as I was setting here watching "Swamp People", just wanted to see who was in my Living room watching TV with me.. Ive gotten one while setting on the camode in the bathroom, that EVP said, "Nasty",, my reply was, "Yeppers, that sure was, now, do me a favor and get out". Sorry, but I tell it like it is, I have no Tac. So, all in all, could I be Haunted?, probably so, could there be spooks that just stop in and hang for awhile?,, I have no doubt.
About "Smudging" or haveing the house blessed, I have thought about it, not done it, I have no doubt that it would work, because I believe the Paranormal has a religious factor involved, but, I think about this, just because you have your place blessed, or cleansed, doesnt necessarily mean they will leave. Sure, it will help guard against negative and demonic entities. I have my faith that helps me out.
For my opinion about Ghosts altering a persons dreams etc. I think it possible, I think its possible they can communicate with you in that manner. I also believe that spirits can affect your mood, bring on sadness, etc.
At this house I spend alot of time in there in Louisiana, it was used as a field Hospital during the Civil War. There have been many times that I have felt sadness to the point of tears when I stood in that house, I didnt bring this on myself, I wasnt feeling sad when I walked up those steps. There have been other times when I felt nausea just walking up the steps of the house, I have spend the past 14 years around this old house, and Ive come to know when Im not welcome there, its the nausea feeling, thats telling me, "No sir, Not tonight Brian". and I respect that, I dont force entry to the place...

Tell you what Toby, not sure which would be meaner, the wife or the ghost, but consider this, a Ghost you cant fight, now a wife, you piss her off, they usually fall for the candy or flowers, or even a card.
I do agree that the mind is a very powerful thing, and that we only use a small portion of it, trick is trying to figure out how to "Unlock" the rest of the mind.
Over the past week or so, I have had been having some wild dreams, they were filled with Ghosts, its been so bad, and vivid that several times I have woke up reaching up and out for some of the Ghosts that I saw moving around my bed, it looked so real. I went this past Thursday to speak with a Priest, and I started Praying the Rosary before bedtime, and since then I havent had anymore dreams about Ghosts. Just completel Stopped.

No No, I dont take anything as an attack Toby, because it doesnt really matter, I know what I get on EVP'S, but I will say this, if my Subconcious can alter my Digital recorder, and the EVP I get on it, then I want to figure out how I can use that to my advantage in other ways. Im a 100% believer in the Paranormal as well. I have laid in bed, been woke up by someone saying my name aloud, I see it this way, if it didnt happen, then I wouldnt have woke up. But I understand what your saying about the subconcious mind
I dont buy the Subconcious excuse when concerning a digital recorder, that device doesnt lie, and your mind just doesnt have the ability to alter whats been recorded on it. If I go to a Cemetery, and get an EVP, then its real, and there is NO other explanation for the EVP.

I dont believe, what sounded like a female child in the Cockerham cemetery up in Northern Winn Parish saying to me on my recorder, "Hi Brian", was my Subconscious.

Here in Texas I work in the Medical Field, I drive an Ambulance transporting Convict Patients from Prisons to Hospitals. When you Study the Paranormal, it makes you aware of everything, opens up your senses.
I have been a fairly Deep Religious person for many years now, more so after my Father Died last year, I wear a BDU style Hat at work, its black, the kind of hat a Military person wears, Been wearing it for a year now, not really standard work clothing, just my personal Hat, I decided that I would put a Gold Cross on it, since Im involved in the Paranormal, and we all know we have things occure when you dabble in this stuff, I also carry a Crucifix in my pocket, I dont say anything about the Paranormal at work.
Prior to placing the cross on my hat, I hadnt had any problems from Correctional Officers who rode the truck with me providing Security for the Convict, suddently after placeing the Cross on my hat, I have disturbing remarks made about it, negative remarks, accusing me of playing a chaplain, to outright hate from some of the women officers. Ive had others who question me about why I have a cross at all. So this struck me as being odd.
I have worked in the Prisons for 20 years now, its a Breeding ground for negativity, and I know that negativity does attract negative entities, and probably demonic as well, so I am wondering, either these Officers are just being plan Jerks about my cross, or is there something more deeper and sinister going on here?. People who work in Prisons have negative entities attached to them that despise a Blessed Sacred Cross?. I wonder...

Ok, that makes sense to me. I can agree with your thoughts about the death apparition, at my fathers funeral as I was giving the Eulogy, my sister said she was watching a white orb float above my fathers casket, wish she would have told me.

As you know, we who study the Paranormal, read about, study about Death, one area I havent really thought about till lately. Want input from you folks.
Whats happens to a persons spirit once they commit Suicide?. Are they stuck in the area where the suicide took place?. Are they able to be as other Earthbound spirits and roam the earth?..

Had that happen several years back at the Lake house near Natchitoches, it was Christmas week, got up to go to the bathroom, came back, laid down, I remember the clock said 1am, my brother was across the room in another bed, nobody else in the house, suddenly, I felt someone pushing down on the mattress around my feet, I didnt move, didnt acknowledge it, the covers started coming off me, then I said, "Hey, its cold out, dont pull the covers".. I set up in bed, then heard/felt this cold rush of air that seemed to blow thru me, my brother said he heard the air rush by him and go into the kitchen area, he asked me what WTF was that, I could only say, "I dont think it was the ghost of Christmas".. My Dad before he passed away last year said he had been having some ghost problems in the House, being woke up late hours by someone walking around.

MY reminders at night are someone bumping my bed lightly, or I see shadow people in my semi dark room.

Ive always known that I didnt live alone, with as many people that have died in this country over the hundreds of years, nobody is alone in their home. I know that everywhere I go, whether it be on my Motorcycle, on my Bicycle, even into the Bathroom, I know someones there. When Im having sex with some fine lady, Im aware there are Ghosts/Spirits who are watching...
When I said I live "alone" in this house, I was referring to being the only Living person here in the house.

For me, there is NO debate about the Paranormal, my Digital Recorder doesnt have an Imagination, or consciousness, it doesnt discriminate, and it doesnt lie, That EVP I got the other night in MY bedroom telling me to "Die" isnt my imagination, since its on recorder, and I live a house by myself...

I can believe that in Religious areas you can have some really nasty demon Possessions, I suppose there is a difference in Islamic faith and radical Islamic faith, you have radicals whom I believe are just straight up evil and demon possessed.
I cant believe that any religion would allow beheading, stoneing and other Gawd awful acts towards its fellow man or women. What do you think?...

You know John, its too bad groups do what they do, the backstabbing, the jealousy, its all childish, This is a Legitimate field that deserves study, attention to understand death and beyond.

HOWDY, FIRST OFF, IM USING CAPITAL LETTERS, SO, PLEASE DONT TAKE ME AS SHOUTING. BUT I WANTED TO RESPOND TO THIS POST. SOME OF IT I AGREE WITH, SOME I DONT. I HAVE BEEN STUDYING THE PARANORMAL FOR ABOUT 12 YEARS NOW. FOR ME, ITS NOT ABOUT IT BEING A HOBBY, I HAVE PERSONAL REASON FOR IT, BUT I WILL TELL YOU PARTLY THAT I WANT TO KNOW WHAT AWAITS ME AFTER DEATH. SO ANYTHING I SAY HERE, IS NOT MEANT AS DISRESPECT, JUST DISAGREEMENT, AND PLUS, IM UPFRONT ABOUT MY FEELINGS, AND DONT MIND VOICEING IT.
[]In the years that I have been investigating the paranormal I have learned that it is filled with jealousy and competition. Many groups that are starting out can be jealous of other groups that have been well established; others will bash groups to try and get ahead. I have also seen groups fighting over locations to prove ones supposed superiority. I hate this aspect of the field, and I just want to vent a bit and see who might agree with me.
NOBODY SHOULD HATE THIS FIELD BECAUSE OTHERS ARE FIGHTING AMOUNGST THEMSELVES, WHY DO YOU CARE?, I KNOW I WOULDNT, IF YOU HAVE A LEGITIMATE REASON FOR STUDYING THE PARANORMAL, THEN IT SHOULDNT BOTHER YOU THAT OTHERS ARE BACKSTABBING/FIGHTING. DONT WORRY ABOUT IT. LEAVE THE GROUP, START YOUR OWN, AND THE HELL WITH EVERYBODY ELSE, IF YOU ENJOY THE MYSTERY, THE UNKNOWN, THEN STUDY IT, AND DONT WORRY ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE.
In this field groups must pay their dues as new teams in the area. Even if there is no other paranormal group close by you still must prove to your community that you are respectable and legit with the best of intentions. So why are some new teams quick to be jealous of other teams investigations and equipment. Generally groups that have high profile investigations have put in many hours of hard work and have gotten their message out to the community. I have even witnessed a certain small group ask a well established group to hand them an investigation because the established group already had too many. This isn’t how things work.
THIS IS EXACTLY WHY IM A LONE INVESTIGATOR, DO I HAVE TO PAY MY DUES?,, WHY?. TO WHOM DO I HAVE TO PROVE MYSELF?, THE COMMUNITY?, WHY?, NOBODY HAS TO PROVE ANYTHING TO ANYBODY, THERE ARE VERY FEW GROUPS THAT REALLY UNDERSTAND WHAT THEY ARE DEALING WITH WHEN STUDYING THE PARANORMAL, YOUR DEALING WITH THE DEAD, THIS IS DANGEROUS BUSINESS. THERE ARE TOO MANY GROUPS OUT THERE THAT THINK YOU HAVE TO HAVE SOME EXPENSIVE, HIGH TECH GEAR TO DO INVESTIGATIONS, AND ALL THIS FANCY GEAR DONT MEAN SHIT, ITS UP TO THE SPIRITS AS TO WHETHER THEY WANT YOU TO HEAR THEM OR NOT.
In the field of the paranormal it is exciting to get into a place that no one else has investigated, you never know what to expect. But never should anyone stoop to any level to degrade another team from any location. Unless of course it is facts you re speaking and you are simply defending the client. When team lie and cheat to gain any kind of access or credibility they are embarrassing themselves and all paranormal groups trying to make a mark in the paranormal.
WHEN PEOPLE HAVE TO LIE AND CHEAT, BACKSTAB OTHERS OVER SOME STUPID STUFF, THEN THAT JUST SHOWS THAT PEOPLE DONT HAVE MUCH GOING FOR THEM IN LIFE. IF YOU HAVE PEOPLE IN YOUR GROUP THAT DO SUCH THINGS, THEN GET RID OF THEM, OR DISBAN AND START SOMEWHERE ELSE, IT NEVER FAILS THAT YOU HAVE JEALOUSY, ETC. IN SOME GROUPS, WHO CARES?,, I DONT, GO STUDY THE PARANORMAL BY YOURSELF. IN SOME WAYS, ITS BETTER TO BE A LONE INVESTIGATOR, BECAUSE WHEN YOUR TRYING TO DO EVP, YOU HAVE PEOPLE MAKING NOISES, TALKING TOO MUCH, SHUFFLING FEET, FARTING, LAUGHING, ETC.. YOU GET THE PICTURE, AND IT CORRUPTS THE EVP TO WHERE YOU CANT TELL THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN REAL EVIDENCE AND SOMEONE BLOWING THEIR NOSE.
These are nothing more than gripes that I wanted to say, no pointing fingers to any groups. I have had the great pleasure of working with some really great teams that are moving this science forward. I have also worked with some awful people and teams as well. To those kick ass teams who are being true to everything….keep on keeping on. And to those who are lying and cheating…..I will catch up to you sooner or later!
Todd Weaver Founder
OUT OF THE 12 YEARS I HAVE BEEN GHOST HUNTING, I HAVE CAPTURED ENTITIES ON VIDEO, A FACE IN A WINDOW THAT TO THIS DAY DISTURBS ME, GOTTEN MILES OF EVP ON FILE, HAD EXPERIENCES THAT YOU CANNOT AMAGINE, LEARNED ALOT BY SELF STUDY. I DONT HAVE SOPHISTICATED EQUIPMENT TO USE, I HAVE 2 DIGITAL RECORDERS, 2 VIDEO CAMERAS WITH NIGHTSHOT, AND HOLY WATER AND CROSSES FOR MY PROTECTION. AND I CANT FORGET THE BIBLE.
TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THIS FIELD DO THIS FOR FUN, LAUGHS, GIGGLES, THRILLS, BUT WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE THE SPIRIT THATS WANTING TO COMMUNICATE WITH SOMEONE IN THIS REALM?, WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE THE LIVING WHO ARE TRUELY NEEDING SOMEONE TO HELP THEM UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THEIR HOME?
PEOPLE THINK YOU HAVE TO HAVE SPECIAL COLLEGE DEGREES, DIPLOMAS, ALL THIS FANCY EDUCATION INORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE PARANORMAL, THATS HORSE SHIT, THOSE PEOPLE WERE STUPID ENOUGH TO PAY THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO GET THAT EDUCATION, WHEN YOU CAN SIMPLY GO TO THE LIBRARY, OR USE THE INTERNET TO FIND THE SAME INFORMATION FOR FREE. YOU CAN LEARN ABOUT PARASYCHOLOGY ONLINE.
IT DOESNT TAKE A BRAIN SURGEON TO BE A GHOST HUNTER, ANYONE CAN BUY A DIGITAL RECORDER AND GO VISIT ANY CEMETERY AND COLLECT EVP. THE BOTTOM LINE, NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE, WHAT FANCY GROUP, WITH THE FANCY NAME, IF A SPIRIT/GHOST DOESNT WANT TO BE HEARD, THEN YOU AINT GONNA HEAR ANYTHING.

You see, there is alot that we dont know about the Paranormal, when those elevators opened up, and those Civil War doctors could see them standing there. I cant say I would step off into that area, especially not knowing what would happen, you could be right, but until someone actually does it, and leaves behind a letter telling what happened, we will never know...

In one of my Earlier Posts I said that Poeple who study the Paranormal and on an investigation ought not be a Hero and go rushing into something your not sure of.
So I have a Question for you folks out there, It would be nice to also hear from some of the many "Guests" that seem to be here Lurking in the Shadows.
Several Years ago I was watching a Ghost program, I think it was from Gettysburg, Pa, I could be wrong on that, but, These People were in this elevator, they were supposed to go to the first floor, instead they wound up in the Basement, when the doors opened up, they saw a Civil War Hospital, soldiers everywhere, blood, etc.. One of the Doctors motioned for someone from the elevator to come help them out. Of course nobody stepped off the elevator, but the people being interviewed about the incident swore it all happened.
So heres the Question: Do you think its possible to be transported back in time?....
What would have happened if someone stepped off the elevator?. Would they have stepped into another Realm?, Would they have stepped into a Portal to the 19th century never to return?...
You can apply these same questions on your next Investigation, I for one wont run into some dark room not knowing if there is a Portal to the Past beyond the door.. I wouldnt do very well back in time...
Something to think about....

Hate to hear about the empaths unpleasant experiences, Im sure they have experienced it many times before.
You know that a spirit can project his/her saddness, anger onto the living?... Whenever I go to my Haunted House on the Battlefield, I sometimes feel great saddness. But in this case of your house, sounds like whatever was there didnt like the idea of intruders looking for it...
Have you ever thought about contacting the Catholic Church?, asking them to have a Priest come to your home and do a Blessing?.. Im curious, did the investigators do a Prayer before the investigation?...
I believe there is a huge amount of religion that has to be involved in any investigation, it seems nowdays religion is becoming a taboo on any Ghost Hunting show you see on TV, you see none of them doing a prayer, I guess even on these shows there is Political Correctness involved, I suppose because everybody is afraid of offending someone who may not be of the same religion, or religious as all. So, I think that when you dont involve religion into your investigation, you open yourself up to harm from demonic or negative entities.
So, Mike, it wouldnt hurt to contact the Church, have someone come out to bless your home..
Im interested in knowing what these folks fine, let me know.
Brian
