Do you believe in paranormal?

I do. I've had many experiences of it, once involving a friend who died of cancer , but most of them involved my desceased pets.

They would be too long to tell all of them but I'll tell one. My first cat Fluffy had a really round face. Before he died one of my mom's friends gave me a little round cactus. After my cat died the cactus bloomed, with one flower on either side of its 'head' Exactly where a cat's ears would be. It looked exactly like his head. And it only looked like a cat's head once. That was the summer my bro's cat Zoey got pregnant and sept 12, 2002 she gave birth to three kittens. One of which looked like Fluff. same coat and eye color even. And made a point of, as a kitten, deliberatly sitting next to a picture of me. She was the only one of the 3 kittens to do that. I have a picture of it. She is my cat Princess who is now 9. My mom is convinced Fluff spoke to me even after he had died.

Do you believe in paranormal? what do you think of paranormal? Do you have any stories?
 
I will try and not be too rude here; Paranormal stuff like the clips above and your anecdotes are plain daft. Whilst i won't state there is nothing after death or that people don't experience things that are currently unexplainable it is not the ghosts of loved ones and pets. Just the human brain grasping at straws to explain or placate the person.
 
Unsurprisingly I'm not a believer in the paranormal. There just isn't even close to enough evidence.
 
there is no such thing as the paranormal. if it exists, it can be explained (even if the knowledge to do so is not possessed by anyone yet), and therefore it is normal. same thing with the supernatural.
 
The problem with attributing any kind of "spooky" experience to the paranormal is that the explanation is going to be both highly improbable and highly unparsimonious. That's not to say that these things didn't have some kind of supernatural origin. We can't ever be 100% sure that they didn't. But it is to say that attributing their origin to something that lies outside of the known universe is probably the last thing we should do when we have exhausted all other simpler and more probable explanations.

Look at it this way - which is more likely: a) That the lady on the couch in the hospital was hallucinating - it being brought on by a long hard day's work during which she was upset over the death of her friend. b) That there is an entire world outside of ours (a belief for which there is very poor evidence) in which dead people aren't really dead, despite having being deprived of their physical bodies, including their brain.

I'll accept that there is a paranormal world when a reasonable standard of evidence can be brought to support it. Until then it's just an interesting speculation.
 
Sure, there isn't enough evidence. ButI do find it fascinating to learn about though. especiallysince really weird things have happened to me.

btw stupid space bar won't makespaces between words forme sometimes it'll happen sorry its being evil
 
A few very odd experiences have happened to me also but I don't believe in paranormal. I've encountered some things that I don't understand but I assume I just don't have all the information.

I'm one of those who didn't believe and actively called people who did believe idiots, until a horrible incident in a hotel in Hong Kong, where the front desk "understood" why we demanded to change rooms...
 
Fair enough. I would not call myself a believer in the paranormal but I have had a few things happen to me which I cant explain.

Whilst my girlfriend(now wifey) and I were moving out of our house I had things move which could not have moved by themselves.

A friend and I were doing the heavy lifting down to the van, locking up the house and taking stuff to new house. When we returned for the next load I walked to the top of the stairs and there was a tower of kids building blocks at the top of the stairs. Only scott and I had been in house all day and I was the last one to leave. Where did it come from? I mentioned this to girlfriend and she said that her son Alex had always said he could see a man in his room, was never scared just that he could see a man sometimes. Also girlfriend was finally divorced from a complete bumhole of a man who had made her life hell. One evening she said she was at her lowest ebb and was crying on the sofa when somebody gave her a hug. I was living is bristol, 45 miles away and the kids were in bed.

I dont believe but I dont disbelieve either
 
I've had one other experience when I used to work in a hospital.

My specimens were kept in large fridges by the pathology labs (I worked in Diagnostic Molecular Pathology) and one day I was pulling out the tubes I needed when out of the corner of my eye I saw a kid looking up at me.

Freaked, I looked (but not wanting to look), there, of course, wasn't anybody there...
 
Lol, bet that made yer bum twitch! I havnt time right now but I will type up what happend to a family friend when I get a chance.
 
Yeah, I hear yah. I encountered something a few times across Scotland. Hence the reason I don't enter Clava Cairns:
a: at night.
b: unarmed.
I don't believe in anything and am afraid of even less but this thing ... well ... it ain't right. Funnily enough one night I'm talking to the late Bill Coyle (Koyo) and he I tell him that there is only one place in Scotland that really scares me and he goes. "Clava Cairns, right?" I look at him and say "You've met it too." He just nods at me and goes "Oh yes".

I wanted to make a dash for the door, but if I had done that, ghost kid would have appeared at the door as soon as I reached it.

Now, this incident was years before the Hong Kong one, and I just put it down to seeing things. Even after this and Hong Kong and hearing a particularly horrendous story from a friend, I'm still umming and ahhhing about the existence of the paranormal. I mean there is no real evidence, the mind playa tricks on you, and it just doesn't make sense to have ghosties and other creepies milling about...
 
It's a 4000 year old burial site in Scotland. Not far from Inverness.
I don't think it is the site per se because I've encountered my "friend" elsewhere too. Three times I've met it, Once on a beach in Girvan of all places and once on a mountainside on the Isle of Skye but those are other stories.

C'mon Bear, what is it?

I don't believe in paranormal at all, it's clearly nonsense. But as I've posted before, my best mate had a house and everyone who stayed there was pretty convinced there was an old lady watching everything that happened with a sense of disapproval. Nothing threatening, just strong disapproval. This was not often discussed, but was mentioned independantly by several people.
