When I was a kid, I was in my bedroom with the door closed. I heard my doorknob turning and looked up to see it still turning real slow and opened. I was expecting to see a family member there checking in on me but no one was there. I jumped up and everyone in the family was just chilling in the living room. My door knob was the kind that even if the door just slipped open, the knob doesn’t have to turn. Ever since then I’ve been interested in all kinds of paranormal.
That’s interesting. Besides the other stories you mentioned, do you have any other interesting ghost stories you could share? I know I’m asking a lot of questions here but I just find this stuff fascinating
No worries at all. I’ve had a fair amount of evps over the years that mostly held up to scrutiny. As far as photos and video, there was one video that was shot that did show some weird lights that sort of looked human shaped, but I couldn’t say for certain it wasn’t someone’s flashlight that had passed by the frame shortly before. I actually stopped doing still photography as evidence simply because it was so hard to take anything in context, whereas video was much easier. In still shots, everything, and I mean everything can be explained away, so you aren’t left with anything concrete. I did get a chance to go to a tuberculosis hospital, the location has actually been on a few TV shows. I did have things thrown at me there which was super weird and absolutely couldn’t be explained rationally, and it felt like it was following me. I tended to attract the weird energy and one time I felt like something might have “stuck” to me and followed me back home, because weird stuff happened there like things moving. Many, many times nothing happens and you’re bored, but when something interesting happens it’s fun.
A few times was a week or so, but there was once that actually lasted a few months. I had some items that moved around and I heard voices so distintly I would actually ask my wife to repeat herself, but she hadn’t said anything.
I’d share the videos/evidence, but there is a high chance it could identify me and I keep Lemmy super detached from other profiles. I’ve considered redoing them, mainly to get them off channels I don’t own that might go dark. I’ll definitely send a link your way if I get them up.
I know you Didn’t ask me, but I watch a couple YT channels that have decent content. Twin Paranormal is a fun one cause of how close-knit the three are. Midwest Ghost Hunter has some of the best EVP encounters I’ve heard. And there was another, I can’t remember the name, that had Mind something in the name, who had some crazy shit go down in places. The last group I mentioned has like three big, tatted dudes who do like UFO videos too. Those don’t interest me, though. One of the best videos from them involved a member of their group, Tanner, who was basically grabbed, tripped, and pulled like 3-6 ft on the ground, on camera, and was so shook up from it he had to go outside and didn’t really want to go back inside.
To be honest, it’s been awhile since I’ve watched his stuff but a quick glance seems to feel he’s still got the same mentality to the paranormal as back then. Basically, almost all paranormal things can be easily explained away, but there is that tiny fraction that can’t, and that’s the juicy part.
Interesting. How did you get into ghost hunting in the first place?

How long were strange events happening at your home after that visit?
Also, would you be willing to share some of those videos here?

Understandable. Do you know of any good ghost hunting evidence that isn’t tied to you that would be good to check out?

Thanks for the recommendations
One of the groups I worked with was led by this guy.
