Okay, not something I talk about because people will want to lock me away. I have attracted spirits/ghosts since I was little. I have always seen things that I can't explain. I had a spirit couple that would come visit me on the regular when I was 16-17. They would appear in my room, black and white, both dressed in kind of a Victorian dress style and the wife would be sitting in my computer chair, while her male partner would stand beside her with his hand on her shoulder. She would smoke and that was it. They just sat there and then they would disappear. I got to the point I was bored with them because they always showed up and did nothing.
I have countless stories of spirits that have appeared--most of them good that seem to want to tell me something. One scared me almost to death. I was in my early 30's and was showering in the middle of the afternoon. As I came out, this half body apparition was in the doorway. (obscure reference but think the big grey dude from Aeon Flux music video Come to Daddy) and put his hands on either side of the door and the room went ice cold--so much so the fogged up mirror completely cleaned off. That was not a good encounter.
To this day, I still have many encounters with things I can't explain. My wife is a huge believer, but just hasn't had the experiences I have. My 18 year old daughter appears to have inherited my gift/curse because she has experienced a lot. She has some really good videos of stuff including a couple nights ago a camera that was sitting on top her computer tower literally flew off it. She has had vivid encounters with her great grandmother, who died before she was born, but she makes statements about her that there is no way she could know.
We have the running joke in our house when things ramp up that the "house is really active tonight." You hear footsteps running across the floor upstairs. Cabinets opening and shutting during the night. One night my wife and I were sitting on the couch and literally something ran down the stairs and slammed into a curio cabinet at the base of the steps and knocked pictures over. Our prior cat died when he was 20--his spirit is still here. He was a huge cat and I see him out of the corner of my eye often.The vertical blinds that he loved to play in move at all times of the day even when no ac or furnace are on. But the strangest thing that has just started recently are the footprints. I will be sitting on the couch and magically footprint indentations will appear on the couch cushions next to me and then they will slowly fade. They have appeared elsewhere on the other couches as well the past few nights. We bought these couches after he died. I have pictures and video of all that.
I am a pretty ordinary, boring guy, who has been with my wife for over 30 years, has two great adult daughters and I think I am pretty successful--business wise, so it is not like I have some undiagnosed mental illness, but this stuff happens so regularly, and I have documentation of it, that I believe--boy do I believe.
