Supernatural discussion thread

[The Icon 152]

Well I wanted this thread to be about your supernatural stories not a debate on if they exist or not. That way why I put that line there in the first place. We have debated if they exist before, but never told stories.

 

But if You guys feel you would rather have a combined story/debate thread go ahead and ask Saz to change it.

[Guest John Hancock]

I'd imagine that's because most people don't have a story to tell. If that's the thread you want though, fair enough, I'm away.

[The Icon 152]

No don't go away just let Saz edit the title to have ye seen a ghost / debate ghosts or something like that.

[Guest John Hancock]

I think I've probably said my peace anyway, can't say much more either way :)

Peace?

 

You could tell us about your belief in the Loch Ness Monster.*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

*Which is an admitted hoax by the way.

Actually, this isn't strictly my story, but my Nan genuinely believed in zombies to the point were she thought that Elvis being one was a perfectly reasonable explanation for all the sightings of him after his death.

 

Another one that isn't really a story about something I saw, but more about something someone else claims to have seen was, once, when I was in Iceland, the cab driver pulled over the middle of a long, open road to pick up a few weird shaped rocks, because he thought that they were trolls you hadn't got home in time (apparently, like vampires, trolls only come out at night) and he was going to drop them off the forest so that they'd be home come night time when they'd turn back into trolls. Naturally I demanded that he let me help.

 

If you find yourself driving around Iceland, keep your eyes open for any piles of weird shaped rocks outside forests, because that's what they are; little piles of trolls waiting to go home. I thought it was a cute thing to do.

I think I see a ghost every time I look in the mirror, turns out it's just me. I'm just really pale.

Did you tell her Zombies usually look like corpses, not like normal people?

[Guest Saz]

Wasn't too hard, thread changed to suit the discussion :)

 

Carry on... :D

Ah, in Ashkenazi (the ironically last-sylabelled term for Jews from the vaguely Soviet Union region) culture, they look like regular people, and are called "dybbuks". They'll come round your house and ask for help and deny they ever died, and then they'll kill you in your sleep if you let them in.

Really? I never heard of that legend. Somebody should make a film out of that. (Well they probably have already.)

[Guest John Hancock]

They have :lol

The film "A Serious Man" references them too, and the next Sam Raimi film, "Dibbuk Box", is going to be about them.

[The Icon 152]

Cool Sam Raimi makes good movies. I saw the trailer for Unborn before but it looked more like a Ghost film.

[Guest Inno]

Thought this would have been about Sam and Dean :(

You can thank Saz for the new title:xyx. He changed it. But the new title is good.

Opened a cloest door and a pair of trousers spinning around no wind or anything just trousers spinning.

 

Hearing a like grunting news before a picture came off the wall at me. (If it had just drops fair enough, but I was stood at least five feet away.

 

A car driving up to me, no one got out, yet it was empty when I walked past. (Walked past within a minute of the engine turning off.

 

Being poked in the back, hair being pulled and stuff being turned on and off during the day and night.

 

So yeah, I believe in ghosts or at least supernatural happenings.

The trousers was wind/breeze? The picture I don't know. You said within a minute for the car, how far from the car were you. Could somebody have exited without you noticing.

[Guest John Hancock]

I don't know why I found it so funny, but Wayne's spinning trousers of death might be a post of the year candidate.

[The Icon 152]

It would have being funnier if they had jumped out onto him. Like the towel gag in Naked Gun.

I did say no wind or nothing.

 

I was watching the car the whole time to make sure I wasn't run over :lol
