About five years ago, I was in the basement of my parent's home during the middle of the day, checking on some things I had stored down there, when I heard the floorboards above my head creaking (it's an old house), and the sound of somebody walking across the floor on the main (ground) level above me. Immediately, I felt the hairs on the back of my neck stand up, as the adrenaline started coursing through my blood, because I was fully aware that nobody else was in the house at that time (and because it's always VERY evident, no matter where you are in the basement when somebody comes in the house from outside, I was suddenly VERY aware of the fact that nobody had come in the door the entire time I was down there) !! I looked around and grabbed the only 'weapon' I could find (a claw hammer), and quietly went up the stairs to find out not IF somebody was up there, but WHO was up there, because I KNEW what I had heard, and I KNEW somebody had just crossed the floor above my head! Long story short..........I found nothing, or anybody anywhere else in the house (after actually searching EVERY room, and EVERY closet, since I was SO sure that whomever I had heard walking above me, just HAD to be hiding somewhere, because nobody came or left the entire time this was all going on). And the one thing I STILL remember so VERY vividly to this day, is the fact that it took almost a full 15 minutes for all of the adrenaline that had been dumped into my bloodstream to begin settling down, and my heart, which was beating like a 'TRIP HAMMER', to slowly settle back down and start beating normally once again.......and finally, for my body to stop shaking from the shock of that sudden rush of chemicals that immediately got me 'pumped' (the shaking was similar to that kind of response others may be familiar with, when you've had a VERY close call, and start shaking after, in that sort of 'fright response' sometimes experienced, when realizing just how close you had come to a serious injury, or even death (and by saying that, I'm not implying in any way that I came close to injury or death, because I didn't.......I'm just trying to relate how shaken the experience left me, and trying to explain it in a way others, who have had a "close call" and that resultant shaking, might be able to understand))! The bottom line is, nothing strange like that has happened since, it was just that one incident, and though I did tell a few people about it afterwards, I felt kind of silly doing so, because, like me, they didn't really know what to make of it, so I simply stopped mentioning it anymore. Though I suppose one day I may get some clue as to just what that little 'episode' was all about, I'm pretty sure I won't, and that there's really not much I will ever be able to do about it.....

Yup, I experienced something straight out of the Twilight Zone. It might interest Nalkarj , since he writes sci-fi stories. Warning it can be a long read but you'll get it al. I happened 2 years ago, I can't remember the date but it was a friday, late September. The weather was slightly warmer than normal so I had the ceiling fan on and the patio door was open, only the mosquito screen was closed. I live in an apartment, so my couch is about 3' from the patio door. My building is located on a small street about 100-150' from the intersection of 2 boulevards. There are stores and restaurants nearby, so it's noisy, not including the other apartment buildings around and the local (small) airport traffic. It was a normal evening, I was watching TV after supper, laying on my couch. I can't tell you when it started but I can tell you when I noticed. Around 9pm I got up to get something in my room. My bedroom window let me see a good part of one of the boulevards despite having another apartment building right in front. Taking a quick look by the window, I noticed that the lampposts were not lit, the stores and restaurants didn't have their signs on. There was no light on the street. I thought it was unusual but nothing special since I know I'm not on the same electricity grid as them (knowing after a few power outages). I also noticed that the apartment building nearby didn't have its exterior light on. It could be burned or whatever but I didn't think much of it. So moments later, when I came back to the living room, I took a quick look though the patio door. Somehow all was shutdown outside. I saw the exterior light on my own building but otherwise there was nothing lit outside. It wasn't that it was pitch black, it just seemed like a power outage at night. I found it odd since some of the other apartment buildings I see out the window are also on "my" power grid. Still it wasn't the most disturbing thing. Getting closer to the mosquito screen, looking outside, I noticed that there was literally no sound coming from outside. I mean, no car noise from the nearby streets and boulevards nor the traffic noise from afar, no noise from terraces owned by nearby restaurants, no sound from planes taking off or landing to the nearby airport, not even the crickets! No wind, nothing, just silence. My lights and TV were still ON and I could still hear the TV perfectly but there was nothing from outside. Around 9:15pm I didn't hear the car roll nor the door close in the parking but I heard footsteps. I didn't hear the building door close or anything but I heard footsteps, like a lady wearing heels (there are women in my building) coming towards the door. I had the blinds partially turned, not completely covering the window but from my couch I couldn't see (or been seen from that angle) the person coming towards the building. From then until I got to bed, it was nothing but silence from outside. I didn't see lights or hear anything else. It felt weird and unusual but that didn't scare me per say. One thing got me slightly curious and scratching for an answer though. My ceiling fan had the blinds moving slowly in small back and forth movement, of maybe 2 inches. It was like a small "rotation" or "dance". But around 10 pm, at some point about 4 blinds just went of the patio door window. The blinds are about 2 inches away at most from the door and it was has if something just blasted through or got out of there in a hurry. They didn't split in half, they lifted from the base to about 2 feets, as if something crawled or moved from under. There was no noise, I didn't see or feel anything. I got up and looked around but I couldn't find what "came out" from behind the blinds. Anyway, at around 11pm I went to bed, still not hearing anything from outside. I laid in bed, conscious and all hears still wondering about when this phenomenom (or whatever you want to call that) would end. Then around 11:15pm, I heard a noise. The closest noise I know and that most people know, is the sound the tires make when you drive over a railroad crossing or an expansion joint on a bridge. You know that "Clack" or however you would spell, that noise is the closes thing to what I heard. Yet it happened only once (with your car you hear it twice) and it was loud. Not to the point where it would hurt of have me cover my hears but it happened as if you burst a balloon with a needle. That could also be another sound similar to what I heard. Anyway, even if it was loud, I couldn't find the source of it. It wasn't from my bed or the floor or my room or outside. It felt like it was "omnipresent" in the sense that it was heard all around but didn't seem to come from a specific source. So after I heard that noise, I started hearing the noises from outside again but they came back in a specific order. The cars, moving on the nearby streets and boulevards were the first ones I got, then far traffic and last I got the crickets. They came back one after the other, they didn't came back all at once. It felt like they were always there but it was only now that I was able to hear them. It hasn't happened since but it seemed that for a period of 2 hours (or more, since I can' exactly say when it started) my building was inside a zone or "bubble" of silence. I am a sceptic for most things and a firm believer in the fact we can find a reasonable explanation to most things but I haven't found one to this. Sorry for the long read.

I hooked up with a girl online, but I wasn't really ready for a serious relationship so we fell out. Some time later I decide to start texting her number again. She asks who I am, and I assume she deleted my number so I say my name (my real name, which is slightly unusual), and add "the Scorpio" (she was really into astrology). She goes "from the website?" and I say yeah. Then she says she's on a road trip with her mom, who's a truck driver, and I remember she said she wanted to be a truck driver herself.
But after a week or two things start seeming unusual, so I call her. Instead of a white girl, I get a black guy. And he sounds just as surprised to hear my voice. Turns out we both thought we were texting a girl we hooked up with from online the past. He some girl with my name who was a Scorpio, and me a girl who is into truck driving with his number (she musta changed it and he got it). We both laughed our asses off.

These events occurred within minutes of each other:
I was sitting in my back yard this past May when a monarch butterfly alighted on my left shoulder. I incredulously glanced at it and in a few seconds it was gone. I then proceeded into my house and out the front door. I saw a squirrel and gave it a whistle. It proceeded to move up the front of my stairwell and stared at me. I was dumbfounded. I mentioned this to my sister and she told me that "someone was trying to tell me something" LOL !!!!

You’re absolutely right, this is right up my alley, mecano! Thanks for sharing it. It could be a superb Twilight Zone episode, too… I only wonder what it could have been (if not paranormal).

You’re absolutely right, this is right up my alley, mecano! Thanks for sharing it. It could be a superb Twilight Zone episode, too… I only wonder what it could have been (if not paranormal). I give you all the rights to make a story out of it and if in 10 years from now, while enjoying your millionaire life, you see me on the streets, all I would be entitled to is you throwing me your pocket change!
But I remember hearing about something similar while watching a paranormal TV show that related different stories, years ago. Two friends where out in the woods hunting, during the day, during hunting season, they had their permit, everything was legit and it was either summer or early autumn. I think it was in the US. Anyway, they were moving in the forest when they decided to stop for a snack.
They enjoyed their snack and had a small talk when they noticed that there was no other noise around them. Usually, when there is a predator (not talking about the movie) everything that could be a prey goes silent. Thing is, there was no big predator in the region so there wasn't any real reasons why all the animals (birds, squirrels, whatever you normally hear in the woods) couldn't be heard nor the the wind. Finding it odd after a few minutes, they decided to wait it out. So they stayed seated, facing each other and looking carefully around for roughly 30 minutes, then somehow the noises came back. They couldn't figure out what happened.
A friend of mine said he once experienced something similar, years ago, early in the morning right before the sun rises. He also said that it last about 30 minutes. His explanation is that there are times and places where we simply are suspended out of time. So for a moment we're out of the "normal" time flow.
His version would reflect in an episode of Rupert ( en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert_(TV_series)) where the hero and one of his friend are out doing some camping and they open a jar of pickles (if my memory is correct) yet the smell makes them sneeze and they find themselves locked out of the time flow. This was a cartoon made for kids, so the logic is simplistic but the idea was that if you sneezed from pickles, while in a tent, at a specific time of day you would find yourself out of the normal time flow. Anyway, the episode went on with them finding a wizard in charge of the time flow and they had to make they way back into their timeline, while being able to see their futures and past and try not to mess it all. It ended well, it's a kid show.
Still I think it's quite a "bit" far fetched but like I said before, I don't believe we have a full understanding of our universe but in any case, I don't have an explanation for what happened.
All I know is that I didn't have any illicit or sense altering substance in me and it wasn't my ears because to make sure it wasn't a physiological defunct of some parts of me, like my ears, from times to times, I snapped my fingers close to my ears to made sure I heard them well.
Call me crazy but that's how I lived it.

A flaming meteor rock flew seemingly right over our heads one summer night in the early 90's. Later we learned it landed miles away, but at the time it looked like it was landing near us.

mecano04 Don’t be so sure about that: I recently posted three scary stories to Reddit’s scary-story section, and they flopped miserably! I somehow doubt there are that many people who want to read my work. Thanks, though. In a way, if I may say so, it’s like “losing oneself” in an experience: time seems to go faster or slower depending on the experiencer. It’s a curious phenomenon. As for the larger question, I wish I could tell you my thoughts on the paranormal in general, but I’m just not sure—though, as The X-Files would have it, “I want to believe.” I love ghost-stories and the supernatural, but I simply don’t know.

It's true that perception can differ from actual, cold facts.
But in my case, nothing makes me believe I was out of the time flow then reconnected. The noise and activity outside coincided (or made sense) with the hour at which all came back to normal.

I have lived near a railroad crossing for years and hear trains blowing their horns all the time... I must note that my home is not in a location where I can see the trains, I just hear them, but, I can take a short walk to the railroad crossing (So it'close...)
I have also been a fan of trains all my life, as well, and I have gone to many different locations to see them and hear them...
And so I am quite familiar with how they sound in various weather conditions, terrain, & distances and so on...
Well, late one evening, a few years ago, I heard a train honking it's horn as it was passing through the neighborhood... This time the horn sounded very different...
The horn had a pulsing echo, like when... you turn up the volume, and then, you turn down the volume, and then, you turn up the volume, and then, you turn down the volume, ETC... on your radio, but this happened very rapidly...
The train then seemed to cross the road normally... Nothing else seemed out of the ordinary, just this pulsating horn... the train went on it's way, and that was that...
I asked some other train fans, if they had every heard of any locomotives with a horn like that, and I never really got an answer from them... I also, have not heard of any other trains passing through sounding like that again...
I'm 100% certain that the echoing effect wasn't because of some typical weather condition, like fog or rain... And as far as I know, no railroad has train horns that work like that, either...
To this day, I have no idea what was going on...
But, I do wonder if there was some, as yet unexplained, "paranormal" phenomenon that was interfering with the sound waves of the horn and was somehow blocking parts of it...

One time I was cleaning a stain on the carpet with that foamy carpet cleaner stuff on the carpet and, some how, some way, when I looked at the foam, I had, inadvertently and totally on accident, created the shape of the country of Italy -- to perfect scale, down to the calf, the heel, the toe and the island of Capri. It was really quite an incredible thing, and I thought to scramble for my camera to capture it forever, but I realized that this unbelievable foam pattern was quickly dissipating, and I wisely chose to stare at the image and let it burn on my retinas forever. In a way, this was a minor thing, but in a way, it was freaking COOL!!!

Somewhere in Virginia. A relatively minor American Civil war battle had occurred there. Took some photos of interesting trees, mushrooms etc.
Got the 35mm slides back from the processor. White misty shapes coming from the ground. NOT all over... just in one spot per photo. No other photos had this so was not a developing error. Saw nothing, felt nothing, out of the ordinary when there.
Bottom line = ?

awwwwwwww whadda they know at Reddit ? … real conosseurs conisoures fans of a good story hang out here ! Nalkarj Thanks, Bat! There was one guy who was really annoyed at the stuff I wrote, said it wasn’t scary and I couldn’t write for my life, and he kept messaging me about it. He apologized this afternoon, but it’s just weird. One of the problems is that that particular forum/whathaveyou needs the stories to be “believable,” so I took on the tone of a narrator who didn’t believe in ghosts recounting weird incidents that had happened to him. It may lower the real “boo!” factor, but it’s definitely more convincing—and, I hope, in retrospect eerier by understatement.

I often think what I would do if I heard a noise downstairs that suggested a break in. I would probably shout down: Listen you mother fucker! I'm armed (a lie of course, I abhor violence) and I am coming down there to kick the shit out of you.
But somehow I doubt that is how it would work. I would probably have a heart attack from fright.
The only odd experience I can think of is one time I was watching a cat in a yard and there was a squirrel and stellar's jay sitting literally, about 6 inches from each other on a branch way up the tree. Why would they be together? I took pics (cant find them at the moment).
