Ghost Activity Caught on Film

[Mystic Wanderer]

Okay Rogues, October is here, which means it's time for the ghosties to come out and play.  

Allow me to be the first to bring, for your entertainment, this video that shows some ghostly activity taking place in a woman's bedroom.
If you watch closely, you can see some orbs and other light anomalies that appear on the video, among other scary things. 

Real, or hoax?   I know most of you will say the orbs are just bugs, but I've seen orbs with my own two eyes, so I know they do exist.  No way to prove one way or the other on this video though.  As for the door opening and lights turning off... and the cover being pulled off her...   what do you think?

An attempt by a woman in Chicago to figure out why she couldn't sleep well may have produced video of some kind of supernatural force pulling the covers from her bed!
In the eerie webcam video, which Iris Alamo posted to her Facebook page, the door to her bedroom slowly creaks open and then an unseen force gradually tugs at her blankets until she suddenly springs awake.
Intriguingly, as Indigo swiftly sits up in bed, an odd orb of sorts can be seen flying off into the corner of the screen.
In her caption to the video, Alamo says "took almost a year but finally caught something on video" and observed that "this is probably why I can't sleep at night."
The subsequent comments from Alamo's friend and her responses suggest that the situation is genuine, but, considering the shenanigans exposed yesterday surrounding the Mexico City ghost, skeptical viewers can be forgiven for being more than a little reticent about the veracity of the video.
In fact, for Alamo's sake, we kind of hope this is a hoax, since we have no idea how she could ever get another night of good sleep if this is actually real.
Check out the creepy video and let us know what you think on the C2C Facebook page.

I'm a big fan of Halloween and though it's true I don't think I've
seen a Goblin, when Boy In A Dress stands up on the step-ladders
during decorating, I think I can testify that I've seen some ghoulies.



But this film.... if you keep your eyes on the extreme left-hand side
of the footage after 20 seconds have passed and the bed covers
are being pulled down, you see the wire that caused this snap back
across the room when she releases it.

I even believe the noise of the 'clip' hitting the wall out of shot can
be heard.

But this isn't to say that the spectre that visits the lady isn't a
former movie Director.

LOL about the ghoulies!  

As for the wire you say you see, that was one of the orbs flying by... right after it pulled the covers back, don't you know?   :smallwink:

This whole thing could be staged...

or not.  

[guohua]

Interesting, But I just don't know.
I've known and seen a lot of spirits and never seen one with the power to yank or pull that quickly covers from a person.
Maybe a pissed off ex boyfriend  .

I see what you're saying and I agree,  I'll go with the 'orbs' theory.

However, ignoring the constant preening of the young lady's hair that indicates
a narcissistic nervousness of being aware one is being filmed, I would have expected
that if the girl had been truly asleep, when she awoke and got out of bed, it's
obligatory that humans always-always scratch their ass when walking away from
the bed.
It's a law in some countries.

It's just an observation, but I'm still willing to accept the 'beyond-the-grave' ex-boyfriend
explanation. Alas, this brings another query, did this female kill him and this alleged haunting
is some-type of vengeance-thing?


I'm seriously contemplating contacting Scotland Yard... or at least, asking Boy In A Dress
about the footage.

[gordi]

Is it just me?

The girl is initially lying in bed on her left side, with her knees raised up to the side a bit.
When the door creaks open... she moves her right foot (which raises the duvet a little at that point) then straightens her legs out which appears to "pull the covers" down.

You can clearly see as she then awakens (and pulls her legs back up) that her foot starts right at the bottom of where the duvet has been "pulled" to. Did her legs just happen to "go with the flow" of the duvet as it was pulled down?? or is it more likely that her own leg pulled the duvet down as she stretched?

The "orb" only appears when she pulls her legs up quickly, so I'm going to suggest dust/fluff being blown by the quick movement of the bedding.
It is heading directly away from where the draught would be created by the movement.

I though that the clicking sound was just something falling off the bed (Like a remote control/phone/hairbrush or whatever) when she moved?

The creaky, slow-opening door is a bit creepy, but it didn't look like it was shut properly in the first place? So, a draught in the house could easily cause that. (It does in my house if I leave a window open and the wind changes direction)

I LOVE ghostly videos, but I'm not seeing anything unusual in this one at all I'm afraid. (Apart from the fact she's alone..... rowrrr! LOL)

[BIAD]

Is it just me?

Yes it is and at your time of life, you should already be aware of that.

Oh wait... I'm here too, so the question is now incorrect. I apologise.

I agree with both sentiments (eyebrow wiggle inserted) and I was forced to wonder why
this young lady had a recording system in her bedroom. It is unusual, unless she has been
plagued with ghostly visitations before the footage and feels the need to capture them for
future study.

This recording equipment may also answer the question of why she is alone in her slumber.
Many folk, male and females these days, are resistant to having electronic monitoring devices
providing proof that one farts during REM sleep.

Although she immediately sought her phone, I wondered 'who yer' gonna call?' and searched
for a Part II to the footage.

Okay, easy to come up with "debunks" on this one.

I'm going to find a "REAL" one that I know to be an honest to goodness ghost video, and post it later.

Get ready!  Bawhahahahahahaha!!!

Awaiting Part 2.

Porn Activity Caught on Film.

When I said I was going to post a REAL ghost story, I had in mind posting a picture of a ghost my cousin caught on film in her house, but I don't have her permission, and after thinking about it, I don't think she would want me to, so... 

Anyone else know of any good ghost stories that can't be explained? Something that happened to you that you KNOW is true?

Yup -
Life's a bitch and then you marry one...

[Ninurta]

I can't help but observe that if they young lady had taken the extra split second to push the door closed another 8 inches until it actually latched, it would likely have been much tougher for the ghost to simply pull it open with a bit of fishing line. Had she done so, she might not have been troubled by ghosts at all.

I have seen two ghost videos that I am sure are genuine, as I know every last detail surrounding their production. One was captured on the surveillance cameras at a place I worked in Kansas City, and the other was captured in North Carolina in an ongoing "haunt" situation. In that one, which I still have video of somewhere, the sound of a growl was captured at another time on audio as well. Both I am convinced are real, this one maybe not so much.

Staged .... all the self respecting ghosts Ive encountered have behaved far better .... and as they didnt jump her bones .... we can rule out horny ghosts ......

In the early hours of one summer's night, just before dawn, my wife awoke and needed
to use the bathroom. At that particular time, there were just the two of us living in the
three-bedroomed house and we'd been married around eight years.

What happened next went unseen by myself and it was only when she raced back into
the bedroom and leaped onto the bed, I became aware that something had occurred.
However, we never spoke of it until a couple of days later.

We had jobs to go to, a mortgage to pay and all the other stuff that young married
couples enjoy. The average life in the western world is packed with mundane tasks
that you're required to do and thoughts of ghosts and things-that-go-bump-in-the-night
are usually left to nights-in with girls or cynical talks at the bar by men.

I'm an average Joe and the woman who's ten-times smarter than me is the serious one.

I trust my wife. I trusted her then and trust her now. She has no reason to lie to me and
this incident could and would never have had any benefit to me or herself.

We've now been married thirty-three years and as I type this, I'm asking questions of
the incident to one of only three people in the whole world that I trust.
I'm one of that three and she and my son are the others.

But... for you dear reader, I'm just a stranger on the internet. I may be male or female.
I may be someone who is telling the truth -or my version of a truth, or just yanking your
chain because you want to believe in an 'after-life' Maybe I feel obligated to write an
account of a ghostly encounter just so I feel part of a group... maybe I'm just an out-right
liar and get my rocks-off on mocking others beliefs.

It's not very nice, is it? This is who we are on this medium and there's not a thing we
can do about it! "Pics or didn't happen" -as Gordi often quips, is the usual order of the
day, but my hobby is working in Photoshop and I know from experience that this trusty
demand does not always 'cut the mustard' anymore.
Just take a look at YouTube!

Onwards... here's my account and you can take it or leave it.
I'm not being cruel when I say that, it's just a reality.

My Missus needed to pee. It was still dark and it would be another hour before the
sun broke over the houses to the east of us. That meant that the light would enter from
the rear of our home and the toilet is on the south-west.

So sitting there, making water with the bathroom door open, my wife noticed the old
woman standing on the landing at the top of the stairs. The dark-clothed figure was
around five-feet way from her and was resting a wicker-basket on the bannister that
levels out onto the landing for approximately eighteen inches on either side where
the stairs end.

My better-half stared at what she believed was a ghost and hurried her ablutions
in the gloomy silence. Then having the courage to close the space between herself
and this unmoving humanoid shape that looked like it was on it's way to a market,
my wife turned right and dived into our bedroom.

There were no house lights on and the only illumination comes from a street lamp that
is located around fifty yards away and shines in through frosted glass of the bathroom
window. To anyone sitting on the toilet, this fragmented light would pass over the seated
person's shoulder at hit the wall at the top of the stairs at an acute angle. In fact, that light
has hardly any effect in making shadows.

The stair landing is rectangular, it's widest parts go left and right to anyone ascending the
stairs. When doing so, one would arrive at a plain wall and have access... (at that time
because it's changed due to an extension on the house)... access to a bathrrom door one
your left and the main bedroom door on the your rear-left -if you looked over your left
shoulder.

So... if you came out of the toilet, the access to our bedroom would be on your right.
as said above!

Any symmetry kept is done by looking to one's right. There's the entrance to what became
known as 'the spare bedroom' on your immediate right and a room that became our son's
bedroom (not even conceived at that time!)... on your rear-right.

I can write this description above because after my wife told me of what she'd witnessed,
I spent three nights afterwards sitting on the same toilet and observing the same situation.
Alas, no old woman appeared and forced me to actually utilise that lavatory!

The walls are plainly painted and light-coloured, there's no shadows or furniture that a
half-asleep imagination can conjure into a human shape and there was nobody else
in the house to accidently or deliberately create the scene.

Now, the stranger on the stairs.
Later, my wife identified her as her Great-Grandmother from the only two photographs
taken of the old lady. It's accepted that my wife may have met her, but this encounter could
have only taken place when my wife was a newly-born baby.

This Great-Grandmother always wore an ankle-length black coat and a black hat that
was common for older working-class just after the Second World War. Life was a lot
different then and being that this spectral lady was from a background of a north-eastern
mining community of England and in a time when money was sparse.

Britain was still reeling from the war and regardless of Churchill's patriotic words and
finger gestures, not all of the country enjoyed the brandy and pheasant that he did.
So this dark figure at the top of our stairs was from a time that the majority of us could
never appreciate. A time of word-of-mouth and a closely-knit community.

That's it... that's the account. My wife sat on the loo and watched an unmoving shape
that -if the conditions of light were concerned, should've been the same when I sat in
the identical position. Yet, I saw nothing that could be deemed any shape or any light
-absence form.
Nothing.

But the basket... the wicker-basket. If it was the ghostly Great-Grandmother of my
loved-one coming back to this reality to check-in on her status and this spirit had the
composition of form to be untouchable, intangible to the tactile analysis...
then why rest the damned basket on the 'real' bannister ?!!

[BIAD]

Staged .... all the self respecting ghosts Ive encountered have behaved far better .... and as they didnt jump her bones .... we can rule out horny ghosts ......

Are yes, Daitengu... but is it not true that you also accept large amounts
of spirits unto oneself too?!! 

[Daitengu]

Been  able see an talk to them since childhood .... yep .... imbibe lots spirits these days .... an during ghost month imbibe spirits while chatting to ghosts on their holiday from hell .... often find them to be better mannered and far better company than the living ......

The Bannister? I've been told by my Ancestors that I communicate with that when they come to you in a Complete Form and Clothing that you'd recognize them in, They also know of their surroundings.
They can make use of objects and even seat down.
Now it's very likely her Great-Grandmother was looking in on her, she may have been making her rounds of the family.
She would not be seen by you that why because you're not a Blood Relative or someone she was concerned with.
Let me ask you, was your wife ill or feeling bad at the time or stressed out?
She may have come by to check on her.
JMHO

[Mystic Wanderer]

Thank you for your story @"BIAD".    

I agree with Ms. G. that your wife's grandmother was checking in on her family member, as I'm sure she continues to do, even when she is not seen. 

Why was she seen this time, you may wonder?  It is my opinion that the conditions of your wife's mind was still somewhat in the Alpha state, which allows one to see/communicate with the spirit world much easier. Her grandmother just wanted to make her aware that she was with her, looking over her, so she took the opportunity to do so.
As for the basket, everything is energy and can reach a "frequency" that makes it solid enough to be able to touch this world. Just as the woman was able to materialize enough to be seen, the basket became solid enough to rest on the banister, influenced by the woman's frequency holding it.

Our family and friends don't wish to scare us when they appear, but still, unless people are aware and unafraid of such visits from beyond, it's enough to cause people to freak out at the sight of them. I think this is why they don't show themselves to us more often.

I have never seen any of my family members on this world after they passed, but I have felt their presence on many occasions, and I often visit with them on the astral plane while my body sleeps. It's really cool to know they never truly leave us. 

However... it's those who aren't family, or have good intentions toward us that we need to be concerned about!!
