A SINGLE ORB OR MORE?
After leaving my job of almost 11yrs I moved back to Bundaberg, Queensland to be with my family. I moved into a little two bedroom flat with my brother. After sometime there I noticed some unusual happenings,
one experience I found the most frightening when I look back was a single orb of low intense light.
I saw this orb over 4 or 5 nights, if I had just seen this orb once I probably would not have
thought to much of it, but the more I saw it the more intense and disturbing my experiences became.
The first night I saw the Orb I awoke from a deep
sleep, I had this strange feeling things were not
right. I remember I was lying on my back and my
head was rested to my left side. I turned my
head to the right to face the window where I
noticed a milky white Orb shape, it was about a
foot in diameter just inside my room near the
window. I thought it was the moon refecting
through my window until the Orb moved towards me,
I felt treatened and scared and after a few
seconds the Orb came at me quickly, as a reflex I
moved my head to avoid the Orb but my head was
thrown back and the Orb vanished. I remember a
cold feeling through my body. I didn't get to
much sleep after that and I was glad to see
daylight.
The next day I convinced myself that I was tired
and I was seeing things. That idea changed that
night as the Orb returned only this night it was
more of a grey than a white, I had the same
feeling of being threatened a the same feeling of
fear, I was also in the same position in bed and
even had to turn my head to see the Orb. The Orb
followed the same path and came as quick and I
even tried to avoid it the same way, the Orb
vanished as the night before, and with the same
cold through my body.
The third and following night I just didn't want
to go to bed, I did, I manage to get to sleep but
I awoke this time facing the Orb, this night the
Orb was a merky black colour and the feelings
were more intense than the previous nights, it
was like it knew and wanted to scare me. Like
the previous nights it came at me, I tried to
avoid it and my head was thrown back, and the
same cold feeling went through my body, after a
few minuites I opened my eyes to see the Orb
there again, only it was a milky white colour and
the same happened as in the previous encounters.
I remember being overwhelmed with fear and
confusion and at my witts end, I had no
understanding or comprehension of what was going
on around me. Daylight came but with little or no
relief.
Somehow, and I still don't know how, I convinced
myself things could not get any worse, I went to
bed and did eventually fall asleep. I had woken
up like the previous night facing the Orb, only
this night the Orb had no hessitation and came
straight at me, I tried to get out of the way by
moving my head but my head was thrown back, I
wanted to keep my eyes closed, but when I opened
them the Orb was there again only this time it
was the grey colour and it to came at me without
hesitation throwing my head back again, without
realising what just happened I noticed the Orb
again, it was the merky black colour and it came
straight at me throwing my head back like before
only this time I felt what was a punch to the
face. I jumped straight out of bed and turned
all the lights on in the flat.
I saw the Orb the following night, this night
felt, and was diferent. The Orb again started
off a milky white colour but it just sat there
near my window. I had no negative feeling about
seeing it. I do know I sat there watching it
change colouring until it disappeared.
I am still not sure if I was just one Orb, two or
even three Orbs that I had seen those nights. I
still do not understand why this had happened to
me or the reason, if any, maybe one day?
It has been just on three years since this
happened and I still see the Orb now and then, I
don't fear it now.
You can e-mail me if you have any thoughts or ideas on what it might be.
