Hi everybody - thanks for taking time to read this. I
have read many other stories on this site and I think they
are all very interesting, true or not. What I am about to
relate here is all true as far as I know. However, I
cannot prove or explain anything that I am about to
relate.
I'll start with the picture on the wall. This story
involves my dad and his mom (my grandmother) shortly after
my grandfathers death.
My dad and his mom were sitting in
her and my grandmother couldn't believe that my
grandfather had died. It just hadn't "clicked" - I
guess it was a stage of denial. Anyways, in the dining
room of the house hung a big picture on the wall (I am not
sure of what) that had been there for at least 20 years,
never once falling off the wall or being greatly
disturbed. However, a few seconds later exact after my
grandmother finally "realized" or accepted that my
grandfather was dead, the picture came crashing down to
the floor. No one else was in the house, there were no
pets, no earthquakes or tremors, no reason at all for it
too come down. Coincidence? Or a ghostly sign from my
grandfather, as a last good-bye?
The next story involves something that happens to me
every once in a while. Like maybe twice a year or so.
Anyways, I'll be sitting on my bed at night reading a book
or something, when I clearly hear my full name whispered.
It is so clear that I actually turn around to see if
someone is there. Of course, no one is, and being an only
child, I have no siblings to play tricks on me.
I got up
out of bed and went to my parent's room, where they were
both asleep. Even so I woke up my mom and asked if she or
my dad had whispered my name. She said no and go back to
bed, which I did - I wasn't really scared, just a little
shaken. A figment of my imagination? I don't know..
it's just that the voice was so inexplicably clear...
The next story is just weird, I don't know if it's
paranormal or not, but it is strange. My mom had just
called me from her cell phone to say she was on her way
home. I picked up and we talked for less than a minute
when i hung up the phone. I started to walk away, and
then realized I had to call a friend back. Ten seconds
later I walked back to the phone and picked it up to dial
the number. Instead of a dial tone I heard some weird
noise that sounded like vinyl rubbing together, or pant
legs rubbing together when someone walks. I also thought
I heard a faint voice in the background at some time or
another. I hung up the again, making sure it was properly
in place, knowing that sometimes hanging up the phone and
picking it up again real fast can allow you to still be on
the phone with the other person.
Again, I waited a few
seconds, and picked up the phone. I heard the same
thing. I slammed the phone down, waited 20 more seconds,
and tried again.
I dialed a number this time, which
didn't go through because instead of the dial tone the
noise was still there. Enough of that, so I left and
tried agian a half hour later, and everything was fine.
Enjoy!
