I think one of the neighbors brought spirits to our building
#1
A little back story first:

Spirits (good and bad) followed me around my entire life until 7 years ago. It's a long story spanning several decades. I made drastic life changes and thankfully it stopped other than the occasional visit of a female presence whom I highly suspect is an ancestor checking in. I stay vigilant because frankly there have been periods in my life where the paranormal activity reached such levels that my entire family lived in terror and people who had witnessed some of it refused to step foot on my property any more.

The Present:

First off I'd like to say that we live in a very nice apartment complex with people of all races, cultures and religions from countries around the world. It is normal to hear multiple languages spoken around the complex, even in our building. The thing is I believe that one or more of these people practicing their native religious/cultural practices have brought shadow creatures with them- and they are bleeding out into other apartments.

It started several months back with strange noises. I thought I was the only one hearing them at first but then Kdog started hearing them as well. Not normal noises that we'd usually hear, noises like things being moved around in the kitchen but nothing is there. We have no pests (Thanks exterminators!) and the dog would either be with us or in his kennel in another room. Then something moved the coffee pot and turned it on (it is now kept unplugged when not in use). I have always warned Kdog about the possibility of this sort of thing happening and if it did to ignore it because those things feed on negative energy- do not give your attention and especially not your fear. Still having the noises but no other weirdness until....

The Shadow Creatures:

For clarity I need to state here that while I have been seeing these things Kdog does not, at least not yet. I am more sensitive for reasons I wont get into today but maybe at some point in the future I might. 

Anyway, I was beginning to fear that maybe the Shadow People had found their way back to me despite the lack of chaos and negativity in my life. I have cultured a life of peace love and happiness which has kept the negative away for years; dark spirits need fear and negativity to feed on and gain power. I was worried that this "Year of Covid-19" might have brought enough negativity to my life as to offer them a crack to squeeze back in... but where were the Shadow People?

Well the Shadow People never showed but about 3 weeks ago I saw the first Shadow Creature! Small, about the size of a medium sized dog but lower to the ground and stockier, blacker than the blackest black, extremely slinky and fast! Have yet to see a face but head is almost rat shaped but much bigger! Possible there are two of them. Keep catching them slinking around doorways and behind furniture.

Here's the weird part- even with the shock of seeing one for the first time I was creeped out a bit but wasn't afraid. In my gut I knew this/these creatures are not here for us, they have spilled out from another apartment and have no interest in us at all. They don't even seem to be interested in the dog and the dog has no interest in them.

We have people from South America next door and cat-a-cornered across the hall, Haitian people downstairs and African people upstairs- no telling who these shadow critters belong to. Just really glad that at least this time they don't belong to me!

Also glad I keep a bottle of Holy Water around just in case!    minusculechairshot

Oh no! Well, I'm glad you seem to have it under control.  
I have a great big smudge stick if you need to borrow it.    tinybighuh 
All I have to do to keep mine quite is mention that I'm going to use it if they don't settle down. 

Keep us updated please!

I hope you are able to stay positive and surrounded with happiness.

I have a history of paranormal events as well. Things have been mostly calm for awhile now other than hearing a random voice or seeing a shadowy dog like creature that runs across the dining room. 

I wonder if all the negativity in general could have these creatures in sort of an unrest. It would seem that with all of the negative events happening lately there would be plenty for them to feed on.

I keep a spray bottle of white sage essential oil. Not sure if it is really white sage or if it even does anything but it does make me feel better. I also keep sage oil in my diffuser at night so I can sleep. 

I hope things settle down around your apartment soon.

For some reason I feel like it is tied to the guy next door. The activity seemed to kick off around the time he moved in. I've only seen him twice in many, many months and rarely even hear him moving about. Those things don't make him suspicious or anything but spirits like to attach to lonely people as well so...

Thanks for the offer, though I doubt I'll need it. I got the distinct impression that while the female presence belongs with us the rest has nothing to do with us and something to just ignore as much as possible.

Now as long as no spirits follow us home from Waverly Hills Sanitarium next week we should be just fine! lol!

Oh my!  Please do a protection ritual before going in and... well, you know the drill.  
Let us know how it goes, and take some pictures (if allowed) to share with us when you return.

A friend of mine had a shadow entity follow him from a visit to a forest in Germany.

There were no violent events, but his daughter was a "sensitive" and she did not care for what had followed them home.

IMO there is a relationship between them and the people whose abodes they inhabit.  I would guess if you and K-Dog stay upbeat and positive, the presence of these entities will be minimal.

Will do! We actually got married in Waverly Hills Park right down the hill from the sanitarium. No flash photography allowed but I'll see what I can get with my phone. We're doing the night time paranormal tour.

While these haints may be in some way connected to your neighbors, it will not be through their religious practices or rituals. Earth Spirits gain their energy from Earth, and this section of Earth is not theirs, so they get no power from it. Given your area, if it is Earth Spirits or "The Old Gods". it is not from them - it would be residual motshemonetoo from the Shawnee spirits that once lived there. Could be wishemonetoo, but given their dark nature and furtive behavior, probably not. If that is what it is, maybe awakened by recent unrest and fear porn, burning a bit of sage, or Red Cedar, or sprinkling some "Sacred Tobacco" (nicotiana rustica, not regular smoking tobacco) along walls, or some combination of all 3, should keep them in line.

If it is "Shadow People", they are not tied to the land, they are tied to dimensionality, but are harmless unless they can inspire fear . Just ignore them and starve them out. They should prefer hanging out with whomever attracted them, anyhow, because that is where they can inspire fear and "eat". Those gain their power from strong emotion (of which fear may arguably be the strongest), rather than from Earth energies.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.

Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’

I have learned from experience that the best way to deal with things of this nature is to fight instinct and use my brain. Since they remind me so much of the Shadow People first I will try ignoring them and starving them out- they will get no negative vibes from us. Since they don't seem to be interested in us I'm guessing that when the neighbor moves they will go with him. If for some reason they remain I will make the space more uncomfortable for them than it already must be. I have additional steps if they become necessary, though I prefer not to make adversaries unless it becomes necessary.

You know, I once lived in a house where some dumbasses were inviting in negative spirits. Actually inviting them in. The same house, under the same roof. I got rid of the spooks for them once, but the dumbasses just invited more in after that, so I told them they were on their own at that point. Those "new" spooks never bothered me, but they gave the inviters absolute hell. I saw them, in the hallway for instance, but they never came into the same room as me. I reckon even spooks know when to bite and when to wag instead, and some humans only learn the hard way.

Just follow your thinker. You appear to be on the right track already. Keep in mind that they can also use "positive vibes", but they don't seem to gain as much strength from them, and can do no harm with what they do get.

Those dumbasses I mentioned above actually asked me if I was gonna get rid of their new guests or not. I just shrugged and said "Nope. They ain't bothering me none, and even spooks gotta have a place to be." and left it at that. So, I get ya when you mention not making unnecessary adversaries.

The main culprit in the aforementioned dumbasses fancied herself to be a "witch", but she was what I can a "Barnes and Noble witch" - got all her "knowledge" out of books written by folks without a clue, but out to make a fast buck. I got mine from "granny women" and hill witches I knew growing up. That knowledge goes back generations, hundreds of years, maybe thousands, and has stood the test of time, so that is what I prefer to go with.

Sometimes people just have to learn the hard way. With youth comes inexperience and also hard lessons. My own experience with the paranormal began not from my own youthful inexperience and curiosity but that of my parents who were dabbling in things best left alone. Thus began a lifelong journey of trial and error, good and bad decisions, chaos and peace. 

I have learned to accept that some things exist whether anyone believes in them or not and how you react to them can make all of the difference in the world. I have also learned that dabblers can be extremely dangerous without even realizing it so it is best to keep away from them. I don't know if the neighbor is a dabbler but negative emotions or a chaotic life situation could draw negative entities just as well. Fortunately neighbors (except for a small group of long timers) usually move when their lease is up for somewhere cheaper so we shall see soon enough. We have been living here for 7 years without issue other than the female presence who has been around me for over 20 years periodically.

As long as the creatures are not here to bother us I have no issues. If they begin to become a problem for us they will be dispatched. When they enter the bedroom they exit extremely quickly as I am guessing it may be painful for them. The rest of the apartment could easily become just as painful for them and it could escalate from there. Ultimately in this dimension I am in control of this space, for now.

I have often wondered what it is like to be "sensitive" to the things you describe.  

I have never seen or experienced anything you are talking about. Totally open to its existence, just have no clue what it is. 

Maybe that's a good thing. I'd hate to walk into a room and have the X-Files music cued up.

It can be quite terrifying! I was a nervous wreck for a huge part of my life. It took years and years to conquer the fear. I've been dealing with the paranormal since I was 7 and am 54 now. It is not fun or exciting and it creates a whole lot of problems. For example after spending a few nights at our house one of the kid's friends was so freaked out that she spread her story at school and nobody would come for a sleepover for a few years and the kids were ostracized. Some of my friends who had witnessed activity wouldn't set foot on my property, only stopping on the side of the road if they saw me outside to say hello. Others I had to run off myself because they had seen too many ghosthunter shows and did their best to rile the spirits up- making life more difficult for us. It is no picnic being sensitive and I would gladly stick my head in the sand and forget it all if I could.

Interesting thread. Not cool that you and your husband have to go through stuff like this but you are kind people, that should be at least some kind of a weapon against evil spirits.

Yep, these are real things... beings, for me. The following is fiction. Harry Potter. But a really good description of what i sometimes or often feel..

Quote:Dementors are dark creatures that consume human happiness, creating an ambiance of coldness, darkness, misery and despair. Because of their power to drain happiness and hope from humans, they have been set the duty of being guards at Azkaban, where they prevent the prisoners from having the will or ability to escape.

However, i have not ever seen anything unusual. Anywhere. I sense these. And it SUCKS. I can't pray, but i talk to "God, The angels, and The forces of good" Because for a whole lot of years that has felt like the correct way to point my words at the direction i want to interact with and who i want to serve. That won't help if the "dementors" are here. Because when they are, then God, The angels and The forces of good are not. When God, The angels and the forces of good are here, the "dementors" are not here. It seems to have nothing to do with what i do, what i think, how i behave in general. These come and go.

But no visual sightings, ever. Dunno, could be just my depression, which i desperately want to seek explanation(s) for.

Thank you for sharing!

I do understand what you re talking about.
Those Shadow-Creatures and "Creatures" is a good name, are scary to even natural Spirits that want to be around you.

I've mentioned before that I have two Aunts that very frequently visit me and they have mentioned these Shadow Creatures/People. 
I am not a Sensitive or have real paranormal abilities, but I guess if you have friendly spirits or long past relatives that like to visit they can make themselves seen and heard, mine do.

My Aunts have warned me before about Things Attached to a Patient I've treated and I had a patient that was Dying and there was No Way to help this person, they told me this person having the Life Actually Drained from his/her body by Creatures/Entities this person had brought upon themselves.

Believe it or not Kdog had his own experiences before we got together, though nothing as crazy as some of the things I have experienced. He does seem to be becoming more used to the female spirit that comes around periodically. She is a loved one who has passed on and only a visitor.

I decided to post about this yesterday morning while drinking my coffee after realizing that I hadn't seen the little buggars yet and thought others might find it interesting- and an alternative to politics, vaccine and fascist doom talk. I did see one later but it did a u-turn in the living room and hauled ass, didn't see the rest of the day and have yet to see today. I'm taking it as a good sign, but it could just mean that the neighbor went somewhere and they went with him.

Forgive me for butting in, but a couple of days before I fell foul to that weird 'mind-controlling' flu,
I observed a dark form leaning over me when I was in bed. I never mentioned it because the subject
-in my view, is not something of substance.

The room was dark with only faint light through the bedroom curtain. I was fully awake and not began
to prepare for sleep. I'm always doubtful about 'unseen entities' or shadow people and there's no rational
evidence that such phenomena actually exists.

But I felt the oppressive form leaning close to my head and believing my imagination -being stuck in a
boring situation, was just overreacting, I mockingly whispered 'go away'!

Like I've said, I respect others perceptions of this reality and know that I'm not the keeper of all knowledge.
But considering such an outlandish claim of shadow-people could easily be scoffed at, I would have normally
stood with the head-shaking group. This, even though my late-mother assured me many times that there is
a veil that we seem to struggle with and those on the other side of this strange curtain sometimes penetrates.

But it did happen and it's only my resistance (fear perhaps?) to embrace this phenomena that my mother
warned me about.

That is good to know, but also very sad. The creatures haven't hindered my relative from visiting so it reinforces my impression that they aren't here for us. I feel bad for whomever they may be here for though.

@BIAD, be careful! I've heard many mediums say that these "creatures" actually do suck the life-force out of people while they sleep. The human slowly develops a health problem until they get so sick, they die. Most of the time it's a heart attack.

Don't want to scare you, but please do a cleansing of your home NOW!
