Do you like the paranormal?

[thecrow2313]

Yes, I've visited several locations mainly in Louisiana and have even done the spirit box thing where I was called funny

5 & 6, I'm stuck & tunnel very perplexing

 

[Ruky Ruky]

Yes. I absolutely believe in it.

 

[Sir Auriel of Lionel]

I've been attacked before on several occasions so it would be dishonest so say I don't believe. I just don't really care to get into the whole idea as a personality or a hobby. I like cryptids even if most of them are scams but like them as mascots or personal folklore or fiction as European historical ones tend to dominate the scene.

 

[Brasilian Belmont]

I don't believe in the paranormal, but i find it very interesting and cool, like those mysteries that no one can explain it just happened.

5 & 6, I'm stuck & tunnel very perplexing

Sounds like the ghost might be trying to move to the light but ended up stuck in the tunnel for whatever reason, assuming their spirit box actually works and isn't just an RNG that displays random shit to amuse tourists. I dunno, personally I hope in my afterlife I finally get to cease to exist instead of becoming a ghost (that would be boring AF), being reincarnated again, put in a heaven where everything is so perfect I eventually get bored and ask for the previous option or even worse, get tortured in some hell for however long because my empathy burned out or something. It also may have called @Cardboardtubeknight a hag, which is slightly disconcerting.

I was actually hanging out with an older lady friend when we did this.

 

[Spyrone]

Ohhh... that makes sense. For some reason I feel like the ghost delivered the line like Simon Pegg in Hot Fuzz.

 

[Cardboardtubeknight Cardboardtubeknight]

There were other things too, but I no longer have them since it was the lady friends spirit box. At one point it said "purple shirt" which I was wearing that night then it said "down" "game" which we interpreted as the device so we put it down, then it said "heaven" "where" which we answered with a not sure which gave us a "useless" the sass I swear.

I’ll start by saying that I don’t believe in paranormal phenomena or anything like that, but I still find the debates around them really interesting. Several years ago, while I was out running in the countryside, my attention was caught by a black cat with no collar or tag, who seemed to be in serious distress: his little face had several scratches, probably from a dog bite. He looked dehydrated and completely lost, and he kept trying to find shelter in my shadow (I remember it was a really hot summer afternoon).
I was several kilometers away from my car, and taking the kitten with me was impossible. So I decided to call the local stray animal rescue service. The guy arrived shortly after, and while I waited, I took a few pictures of the kitten to document the encounter and possibly alert someone in the area.
One of those photos has always haunted me… When I looked at it closely, I noticed a disturbing detail: the cat was facing to my left, yet in the photo I took, you can clearly see what looks like an evil-looking face with a strange tongue. Honestly, I have no memory of the kitten moving his head (which was my first thought), and yet this shot makes me uneasy every time I look at it (though, to be fair, I rarely do — I just retrieved it from my photo archive).

I find the paranormal interesting but have never had an experience that convinced me any of it is real.

 

[DjQuick2008]

I believe in it because ive seen it.

There is an abandoned mill about a mile from my house. Its well known to be haunted. I wish people would leave it alone.

 

[Bluewyne]

I love mythology, ghosts, cryptids, vampires, movie monsters, etc; anything spooky.
I don't believe any of if it is real, but I consume a ton of videogames, movies, anime, etc that have it.

And this is good. There are always rational explanations for these and I still like seeing those in fiction.

 

[Mopeybloke]

I don't think about it often and don't believe in it at all.

 

[KenaiPhoenix]

Yeah, I feel draw to it.

I also lived on a haunted house for like 7 years. Maybe it just stuck with me.

 

[Naltic]

It's a mixed bag for me. I like it at times, and at times I just hate it because of how clearly fake it is (I am looking at you "exploring a haunted x place"). But here is the thing, I don't really believe in spirits or ghosts in the traditional sense; where they are the souls of the damned living in x place because of some misfortune or something, but rather I believe in that there are other beings that can be good or bad or neutral. Like us, but different and unseen by us. The problem is, is that like 99% of horror stories or scary paranormal stories are just fake (imo) because I believe that those "otherworldly" beings don't/can't really affect us as we believe they can.

Also, one last thing, one should keep in mind that the most scary, most horrific, depraved, despair-inducing thing is and will always be brought not from some magical spirit, demon, ghost or being but rather us. We humans. Time and time again, the thing that has scared me the most is listening to or watching videos about real-life stories of a person doing x thing to someone else. Humans are the scariest, because we have the free will to do what we please, and many a time we are far more unhinged and insane than anything we can conjure up.

We humans

Humanity is complex, that’s for sure, but lumping us all together seems a bit much to me. We shouldn't take the blame for other people’s actions if, on our part, we’re aware of our own limits, our weaknesses, and our past mistakes with the goal of improving ourselves—and at the same time, trying to offer something to others without expecting anything in return.

Of course, I was just generalising that often times it's not some demon or something that can do the worst of crimes. I am not saying every human is that bad, just that humans can be both a double sided coin of good and bad but also neither good nor bad. We aren't stationary.

 

[Retro Doomer]

Paranormal stuff may Exist but who knows and I find it quite Intriguing.Lets just say I rather would not dare to settle down in a House that is rumored to be hunted,but yet those things always quite Intrigued me.
