Do You Believe In Ghosts?
David:
I'd like to think there is some kind of exsistance after death. I was at the Cemetary visiting my Dads grave on July 4th and paying my respects. I feel funny chatting to him as I know he is not there. Well, his body is there, but not his spirit. I sure know that my fathers spirit wouldn't hang around the Cemetary waiting for visitors! If he were a free spirit he'd be all of the world if not the universe exploring.
That is why I doubt Spirits visit us. My life is boring compared to what the rest of the world has to offer! LOL. When I die, if I am a ghost, I'll be in Hawaii, not Hartford!
I hope my relatives aren't hanging around watching me 24/7 ! YIKES! Imagine the things they'd see! ::)

I believe your Father heard you. Your Dad probably is off exploring the universe, but he is still connected to you. I believe spirits are not limited to space, in other words they can be in more than one place at the same time. And even if he wasn't actually with you when you were talking to him (although I believe he was) he would have been aware of you and your words and thoughts. And I am certain it brought him a lot of joy just knowing you were thinking about him! :)

Every so often I would think that I should have listened to that walkman. That "spirit" definitely made an effort to show itself to me. We had lived in that house for over a decade, by that time, and no one had experienced anything. Was it asking for help? or just saying "hi." If it was looking to play a trick on me, it could have done so much more than pressing the play button on the walkman.

When I read your post I began wondering what the spirit might have said on your walkman. But I think I would have done the same thing you did. I don't think I would have listened to it either.

Ok, the stories y'all shared kept giving me the shivers. Brrr. So, THANKS! ;D
I absolutely believe in ghosts.
A few weeks after my hubby died, he came to visit. I was almost asleep and it had slipped my mind that he was dead. I was in bed, laying on my back and was covered by the comforter. I felt him climb in (waterbed) and roll over to my side. He then kissed me and lay on top of me (on top of the comforter). He would do that when he first arrived home, as I worked days and he worked nights as a waiter at a dinner theatre on the north side. I would often be asleep by the time he arrived home and it was his way of gently awakening me if he was uhm, well, frisky. LOL Anyway, he began to be less and less gentle, which was totally unlike him. When I opened my eyes I realized it was not him at all. I just got a glimpse, but it was something "impersonating" him. By the time I blinked and could scream, the weight lifted and it was gone. The indentations remained on his side of the bed (on the comforter) and I slept on the sofa that night. The neighbors never commented about my scream, and nothing else ever occurred there.
I didn't mentioned what happened to anyone, and two days later his best friend called to say he appeared in the edge of her closet (what we determined to be) the night after my experience. We think her's was the real Dav. Not wanting to awaken her wife, she whispered a word only we four would know and the form instantly disappeared.

p.s. - we should have a campfire burning while telling ghost stories! :laugh:

Oh my God! Something like this happened to me once too!
People are going to think I am completely whacko after I tell you this...
Anyway, I was sleeping one night and suddenly "something" woke me up. I just woke up, and I don't remember hearing anything. Suddenly I looked up and hovering above me was a dark shadow, and it had big wings. It decended down on top of me and began pushing me down deep in my mattress. It didn't hurt, but it felt cold and I felt like I couldn't breathe. I felt like it was smothering me. I remember thinking "Oh God, Please make it go away" and suddenly it lifted up off of me and disappeared.
I will NEVER forget that. It was one of the most horrible experiences I have ever had. It might have been a dream, but I don't think it was because I jumped up out of bed just after it disappeared. I was definately awake then.
A dream? I doubt it. And I really believe it happened. I have some ideas why this happened to me, but it sure did scare me.
I hope that NEVER happens to me again. >:(
