Shadow creature filmed by security guard

[Q-reeus]

Yea, much of ''reality'' tv is contrived and scripted.

Have any of you watched the films from the franchise ''Paranormal Activity?'' No music at all, and it's terrifying. (as far as horror movies go) I think that some of these amateur ghost hunters should take a page out of that franchise's book, and place a camera up, and let whatever is meant to happen...happen. No music, no screaming, no editing.

Q-reeus - that is somewhat compelling, but he may have falsely frightened himself, when in reality, there was no ghost. But, I remember a few years back, staying with a few friends at a house that was supposedly built on a native Indian grave site. Could be 'lore, who knows. But, we kept hearing strange uncommon noises, and a dog outside barked off and on for most of the night. I left the house super early the next day, cutting my trip short. For some reason, I was afraid, convincing myself that if I had stayed another night, something might happen. Sometimes fear alone is enough to make you change your plans.

wegs, combine that line re resigning his job, with what I wrote earlier about gusty conditions, if actually present, immediately suggesting a natural explanation to anyone with a functioning brain. The two don't mix well at all.
As for your experience - on the one hand you confirm something paranormal was happening, and then suggest it was just 'fear alone' that got you exiting the premises. How about events generated the fear which then led to exit move. Maybe what you actually meant. On that note - this ones especially for you:

The ''events'' (being the confusing sounds and dog barking throughout the night) weren't necessarily stemming from paranormal activity. The noises were heard by my friends and me, but we didn't explore to identify exactly where they were coming from. Ghosts could have been at play, but...I'd hesitate to leap to that as the final conclusion or only possibility, because it really could have been anything.

Staying overnight in a strange place, I'm not familiar with sounds that could be commonplace, there. Maybe the dog barks every night, for no apparent reason? Maybe there was an actual person roaming around outside, that alerted the dog? So many possibilities, but...I was afraid, just the same...because of the backstory of the house. Whether that was folklore or true, the sounds helped to create a story in my mind, and that was likely what made me afraid.

lol those lyrics. ^_^

Fear fair enough - a balanced, cautious appraisal. The late departed to realns unknown Randi would have concurred - maybe still does!
As for that link to a hit from the great band a-ha - just thought you'd like the music. Well, maybe there was some incidental involvement with the lyrics - and butterfly scenes.

 

[Q-reeus]

Seems like there's a mystical linkage between a-ha and this thread:

This can't just be coincidence!

I have been in similar building basements, and as I can recall, those doors have locks, and when you slam those doors they do close and lock. After the security guard got into that room, the ghost stayed behind him all the time... smart ghost...
