Yes, it was a really strange, scary and unexplainable experience.

I just hope that it was some creeper in a suit trying to scare people
That's so creepy! I'm not going to be able to sleep a lot at night anymore
When we first moved into this new house, my two daughters went off to Summer camp and my husband had a business trip. The first night that my son and I were alone, I was feeling nervous. As I said in my earlier post, the house felt "busy" and I kept seeing someone run across the back yard. I told myself that I was on edge because it was a new place to me. I didn't know all the creaks and pops of expansion and contraction.
My son had gone to bed. He used to fight being alone upstairs in he old house. In the new house the children are upstairs and the master bedroom is downstairs. I was amazed (and quite thankful) that he fell asleep so quickly.
As I prepared myself for bed, I passed my door with the clear view of the foyer and stairs. The large, bright, glowing, RED BALL OF FIRE on the stair landing blinked out! This was a huge what moment! I held my breath for a moment. Although I had just had a HUGE fright, I felt no evil. In fact the impression was "Oops, you weren't supposed to see me!" At that moment I also had no doubt there was another one just like it on the back stairs. "They" were protecting my son!
I shook my finger at the empty stairs: "I'm going to bed soon and you'd better not keep me awake!"
I finally got into bed. I said my prayers and asked for protection in this new, strange house. Then I was kissed on the cheek! Talk about not helping in the quest for sleep, lol. I think my great-grandmother was tucking me in.
I told several friends about the red light before I finally spoke to my son. "Oh, that was just Buster, my angel. He also has wings of fire..."

I guess this story isn't too scary, but it's kinda weird. Lately I've been having reoccurring dreams. Not just super fun happy dreams, but dreams of the end of the world. A few months ago I had the first dream, then I had the dream again last week. And the other night I had another end-of-the-world dream that repeated itself (okay, maybe each dream was a LITTLE different) four times in a row.
First dream: I could turn into a mermaid in the water (yeah, weird) and the world was gonna end but only mermaids knew about it and knew a safe submarine-place to bring themselves and their families to. The first dream my family and I made it just barely to the submarine, but in the second dream nobody believed me until I somehow proved to them. But it was too late; I was grabbing my 2 EE chicks to salvage with me (not enough time to bring my 4 GSL's) and the world exploded. Then I woke up.
Second dream: There was some sort of black ray that was going to come from the sun and burn the earth to a crisp. But then a scientist somehow flattened the earth, shrunk it, and sprayed anti-black-sunray stuff all over it and we were all saved. Then it was me who saved the earth in the second mini-dream. Then it was a cartoon character. Then it was an angel, but there wasn't enough spray left to save the world and we all died. Then I woke up.
Kinda odd.

It probably has to do with the "fight or flight" reaction most people and animals have when they're scared or surprised. I wish I had a spooky story to post here.
You're probably right about that! If I didn't know what it was, I would choose flight!
These are great stories. I haven't been scared in a while.

I'd choose flight as well. Scream like I was dying and run for my life!
Or I guess it depends. Grizzly, no idea. Cougar, fight. Paranormal monster, pee my pants and run as fast as I can.

Ok, here's my "weird" story...I have to go in the hospital usually 2 to 3 times a year due to C.O.P.D exacerbations, well during one of my stays after a few days, i started to feel a little better so i had flipped over and was sleeping on my stomach (i don't normally do that because of the IV's & stuff,) but any way i was awakened by someone playing with my feet! so i kinda laid there, I just knew my husband had came in and was playing with my feet, so i turned around so i could see my husband.......and there was NOBODY there!!!

You guys have some really great stories! I don't think I know anyone that hasn't seen SOMETHING that they couldn't explain away.
I grew up as an only child out in the country and loved it. My mother; not so much...she was always afraid in a way that I have never been. Daddy wa a rancher but my mother wasn't much of an 'outside girl'. She used to have dreams of 'wierd looking people' standing at the foot of her bed. I think she was always afraid that something was going to 'get' her. Does anybody else feel that way a lot of the time?

With all these stories and my increasing conviction that there are unusual creatures out there, if we ever get a place in the country I am going to carry a loaded gun. If something terrifying shows up (like a screaming gargoyle), I hope my immediate reaction would be to shoot it without a second thought. I'd rather kill a harmless animal than have a live lethal one feasting on my insides.
Peaches, that sounds so utterly demonic. I firmly believe that most of you have really seen things that are unnatural - most of it strikes me as pure evil.
A friend of mine (in fact, one of the leaders at my Bible study) once got "that feeling" - you know, where someone is watching you? He snapped around and saw a guy duck behind a corner. He ran after the guy, rounded the corner and... nothing. There was nowhere for the "guy" to go. It doesn't help that this was at a time when this friend's sisters were doing some ill-advised things. He implied they were involved with witchcraft. Twice he woke up to something physically punching his mattress. The first time he tried to throw his sheet over it - it just sank to the floor, with no one there. The second time he started insulting whoever it was. Later, reading his Bible, he figured out it was probably a bad idea.
I have no doubt, considering the context, that this friend had actually had personal encounters with demonic forces, especially considering his sisters' "ill-advised" activities at the time.
It's weird - the story frightens me, but at the same time I'm not afraid. Out of curiosity, how many others view these things the same way I do?
