Creepy unsolved/paranormal/strange events thread

Alright let me share another story or two.

I don't know if I said this before but the house my folks built in Venezuela was actually a graveyard back between 50 years to a century ago. Now a lot of shit happened in that house that my parents or sibling haven't disclosed to me fully. As a little kid sometimes memories tend to be a little distorted but here are some that I vividly remember as so do my family.

This one happened to my eldest sister.

It was a night just like any other night, the whole family was home and for once everyone was in bed and sleeping. Hours passed that night and to my recollection, I was woken up to the sounds of horrible screaming. In our house all my sisters slept in the basement rooms and my brother, parents and I slept on the main floor. We all rush downstairs and run down the hall passing each empty room, where one of my sisters left theirs (I have 5) we then get to my eldest sisters room and all the other four are gathered around her. We're all like what in the hell is going on, the lights are off and nobody can see anything. My mom turns on the lights and everyone notices my sister has marks on her neck, as if someone took both their hands and tried to strangle her

Everyone was baffled by it because it was red and sort of hard and scaly from what my family said. The skin that was marked, had the same look and texture as when you simply burn you finger from a flame from a lighter, match or whatever burns you like that. Everyone is silent, I was scared and then one of my sisters takes me upstairs and puts me to bed again. I woke up the next day and my sister was wearing a turtle neck (lol).

Now, after that day I forgot about it and life went on. Nearly a decade later I found what the fuck happened, this is all from what she told us exactly. That night, my sister woke up randomly she described exactly as sleep paralysis. She was awake but nothing worked, all she could do was look and stare. This was something she experienced before and it would stop eventually. As she was looking around the room she saw a figure of a person. When she saw that she became radical. She didn't know what to do, all of the sudden it started moving. She tried to scream, move, jump everything that would break her free. It just came closer to her, step by step and as it eerily walked closer to her it came under the moonlight.

It had the physique of a man, no face, no genitalia, it had a gray body, which seemed to have static. (Think of Dr. Manhattan without balls). It got next to her and got on top of her and gripped its hands around her neck and began to choke her. She was trying to scream, she was crying inside and knew she was going to die, nothing she did was helping her. How she explained it to use was probably nowhere near the emotional torment she was going through. She began to die as she described it and took in her last though then; closed her eyes.

She woke up to a twitch and as soon as she realized she was conscious, she started screaming. Those marks on her neck lasted two weeks, but what was even more fucked up was the fact that her marks just disappeared from one day to another. They didn't fade away, they just vanished.

Note: thanks to that fucking joke called Tonay, other skeptics started rising up and being bitches. I don't know what to believe, these things happened to my family, I was there and I experienced it myself. I don't believe in a god or a fairy but shit like this is just fucking weird.
 
I read this tidbit in the Washington Post's national news section about 15 years ago.

A woman living in an apartment building in New York City started complaining to her landlord about children in the apartments next to her being too loud, I guess running around and yelling probably. Well there were no children living in those apartments so the landlord ignored her. She kept complaining and complaining so finally the landlord, after talking to the neighbors who didn't know what the woman was talking about, called the police to come talk to her. The police interviewed her and asked her if they could search her apartment, and she said yes. In her closet, in a suitcase, they found the body of a little girl- her daughter. True story.

F*cked up. So the woman who complained killed her daughter or her neighbours did?
 
Has this been posted yet?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UVB-76

UVB-76 is the callsign of a shortwave radio station that usually broadcasts on the frequency 4625 kHz (AM suppressed lower sideband). It is known among radio listeners by the nickname The Buzzer. It features a short, monotonous buzz tone (help·info), repeating at a rate of approximately 25 tones per minute, for 24 hours per day. The station has been observed since around 1982.[1] On rare occasions, the buzzer signal is interrupted and a voice transmission in Russian takes place. Only three to four such events have been noted. Despite much speculation, the actual purpose of this station remains unknown.

Oh shit o.O

The radio station is also really odd...

That explains the consistent sound, but not the Russian conversations, which are random as shit.

Well, yeah, but I'd guess the conversations are some sort of orders for spies, military personnel or whatever, used only sparingly. Or something. Or maybe it's Lenin sending transmissions from his secret base on the North Pole, preparing Mother Russia for war against the Nazis hiding at the South Pole :o Yvan Eht Nioj

This Gable film thing seriously freaked me out
The last episode Monsterquest shows how the two Gable films were made. Guy did a really great job.

I also never knew any Bigfoot/Lost Colony/Kasper Hauser(sp) threads existed on gaf. Sweet. I love this type of stuff (not ghosts (well not counting haunted history and such), 2012 and UFOs, but pretty much all of the other stuff).

I blame this wonderful book from my childhood, I still have it to this day. :)

Lost Colony and Kaspar Hauser? Pray continue.
 
I'm a skeptic but ill share a story my grandpa told me and swore it was true.

He said he was driving home and suddenly he saw an angel sitting next to him in the passenger seat. He pulls the car over and the angel, who he described as a bright golden light with wings and a woman's face said, "Betty's with Jesus now".

He said it was calming and peaceful and then the angel disappeared. He got home and found my grandma had just passed away.

He told me this countless times. I've never seen any ghosts or anything like that but I've seen some UFO's. Still a skeptic but I believe its possible. Just hasn't happened to me.

Yep, two favorites of mine, I first heard about reading the Daniel Cohen book along with Judge Carter, Great Airship Mystery of 1897, Prester John, and more.

In Search of with Leonard Nimoy was gold for me to watch in reruns as a kid on History.

Even if you don't believe any of it, it's still so fun to read about (barring the stuff mixed with racist crap).
 
I think my body is made of pure energy underneath my skin. I don't think i have muscles or a skeletal system, just pure glowing light energy. My power is actually unfathomable. If anyone else tried to gain knowledge of the extent of my power, they would literally go insane. My power is so great that it is unknowable by human beings. My power is fucking NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUTS!!!

Never change.
 
I've seen three UFO's, one in 1997, one in 2003, and one last year. The first two were low on the horizon and pulsed different colors before appearing to move to the side and disappear. The last one was a very bright white light fixed in the sky, I saw it from Camelback Mtn. in Phoenix, AZ. It pulsed brighter a few times, then disappeared. I don't think they were aliens of anything, but still seeing them was still kind of unnerving.
 
I know it's probably pretty lame compared to what other people have posted but what the hell.

About 3 months ago, mid March, me and my two bros were sitting outside my parents house discussing some family issues late at night. Despite the fact that it was technically still winter, it was kind of hot, so I went inside the house to get some drink for us all. Mind you, the house is rather small, so the area where we were sitting was right on the other side of the kitchen wall. As I am pouring some drinks, I hear my bros getting really excited over something, but I just figured the conversation had heated up or something.

So I go back outside like normal, and I notice that they are off their chairs and looking up to the sky and pointing. When I got to them, I ask "What's going on?", to which my oldest brother answers "Dude, we just saw this bright light moving over there, then as it was moving it started fading and fading until it was gone". At first, my initial reaction was to think they were bullshitting me, but they swore that it was true and stuff. I paid no attention and we kept on talking for a while.

After about maybe 15 minutes, much to my disbelief, the light was back right where they had told me they had seen it, then, just as they had described it, it started moving. As first, it was rather bright, you could easily tell where it was in the night sky. But after a short while, it started fading and moving. Fading and moving, until suddenly, it was completely gone. I just couldn't believe that it was true, since, whatever it was it was weird as hell to see something like that happen twice in pretty much the exact same fashion.

No one can stop me know
I'm like a human dynamo
Live wired and chargin' out with power
This time I won't hold back
I'm rarin' to get up and go
Fuelled up and growin' by the hour
 
Laying in bed 1 night, i was woken up by some bubble wrap behind the headboard sliding off the box it was on. Propped it back up and went to go back to sleep.

Suddenly, it felt like something had just punched me in the side of the face. I lay in bed, tensed up shitting myself for about a minute, until i had the balls to turn around and look if there was anything in the room, there wasnt, said "Fuck this" and went back to sleep :lol
 
I once thought I saw four UFOs. This light that hovered in the sky suddenly split into four and the four bits (which were just as big as the first light) went off in different directions at right angles to each other at blazing speed (seriously - one side of the sky to another) . Then they hovered and rushed back to the middle and joined up again. I was convinced I'd seen a UFO until I realised that it was a cloudy night and the lights I saw were caused by searchlights from a nearby stadium :(
 
Oh, ive also had one of those things where, you wake up, but the rest of your body is paralyzed, so i was basically looking around my room, and at the other end was a shadow, that slowly came towards me (i was shitting myself but couldnt do a damn thing), it felt like it took every ounce of strength i had in me to raise my arm towards the shadow, until it disappeared, and then i was fully awake and could move again.

Apparently loads of people have had a very similar experience to this.

I've had something very similar, but not exactly the same.

I know I was awake, because I could hear the noises being made from downstairs and could see that a movie was playing on the TV. However, I couldn't move, but I never saw anything unusual. The only thing that was very...odd , if you could say, about this was that I had the image of some sort of witch burned into my memory, and the sound of her laughing in a really macabre manner, which kind of creeped me out.

Sleep paralysis, and it tends to happen more often if you're really sick. However, normally, it just means that you're not experiencing real sleep, and while your body has fallen asleep your mind hasn't adjusted to it, so you are caught in an in-between state.

Common images include shadows and old hags, for some reason.

:lol I was watching that and actually said "You son of a bitch" aloud.

I've got one for you guys, what ever happened to that abnormal human body that washed ashore Plumb Island in New York?

I print screened the image just because it was an interesting article...but I havent heard anything since.
 
i got sleep paralysis once when i had a dream that i was on this grid, and there were shapes flying around at ungodly speeds, and i was a shape, and i crashed into a pyramid at several billion miles per hour, and I died in my dream. I woke up and couldn't move and i thought i had to do a backflip out of bed or else i would never be able to move again.

PLEASE write a short story about this
 
This may sound odd, but bear with me. I was lying in bed one night, just flat back with my arms to my sides. Trying to clear my head a bit, sort of meditating I suppose. So while my eyes are closed I for some reasons start focusing on my nose, like trying to look at your nose/eyebrows but with my eyes closed. Basically 'looking' at my nose/forehead and I "see" (eyes are shut) a sort of glow in comparison to everything else (pitch blackness). Nothing crazy, just this slight light. Suddenly I feel my eyes get real tense as I begin to see in the far corner of each eye this row of light moving outward. Basically like an endless 'tube' of light running by the sides of each eye. So what I am 'seeing' is these two lights/glow coming out of the bottom right and left corners of my eyes, and suddenly I get this really weird feeling of weightlessness. It's not a feeling like i'm floating out of my bed by any means, but a feeling like time has stopped, like everything is slowing down or something.

Next thing I know my ears sort of pop as I get this incredibly strong tug feeling right in my chest/heart of being pulled onto/into bead (not that I was ever off). You can describe the feeling as when you wake up with a mini heart attack as you think you were about to roll off the bed when you weren't (hope everyone knows that feeling).

Anyway, that was it. I was left there with my heart pounding and heavily breathing not knowing what in the fuck just happened. Nothing even remotely similar yet.
 
I've only had one experience with paranormal/weird stuff, but holy crap it scared the living bajesus out of me.

A few years back (when I was 15, my brothers were 13 and 11) my brothers and I were all hanging around in our basement, gaming and surfing the internets. It was about 1:00 AM and we were getting ready to hit the sack when suddenly my youngest brother looks out our basement door and screams. I've never heard such a scream. It wasn't an "ah!" but a full-fledged, high-pitched scream. We jump over the couch to see what he's looking at, and there's nothing there. Before he can even say a word we hear a really loud crash upstairs. My brother cries to me not to go up, tears in his eyes, but I had to. It's like instinct kicked in. I grab a baseball bat from storage and head upstairs, fearing an intruder.

I immediately noticed the kitchen cabinet was open and there were at least two shattered glasses shattered across the floor. No windows were open, my mother was asleep and the dog was in her room. To this day I have no idea what happened.

When I ask my brother about what he saw he says that he has no idea what I'm talking about. He claims he never screamed. That whole incident is a blur to him.

I gotta get out of this thread

I love it. That is an incredible story and I believe every bit of it. This stuff happens a lot and it just gets tucked under a rug. I've got some to share, but it didn't happen to me, it happened to my aunty and her children, there was also something that happened to my grandmothers cleaner. I'll explain later though as I'm kind of busy with some work.

Damn that one is pretty weird. You guys should hypnotize him and see if he remembers :)
