Ask A Question

It's been a little while since I have felt the need to post anything on my blog, mainly due to not much really happening here. Although last night was the first major thing to happen here in a long time, and what a night it was.

So let's start from the beginning, Thursday afternoons my girlfriend works and I stay at home with the dog, I normally end up cooking and watching T.V with the dog, pretty uneventful really, but how I like my life to be. So fast forward to about 9:15pm, I'm sat in the front room, watching some T.V. Max is bringing  me his tennis ball, and I am throwing it into the hallway, nothing new with that. Well midway through throwing it, he turns into the room and just looks up behind the sofa, so I instruct him to get his ball. Off he walks into the hallway and brings back his ball, but all the time his eyes are looking into nothing ? I say to Max "Nothing is there buddy it's just me and you", well at this point he sits looking up about 6ft to my left. I throw the ball and he just sits looking up into fresh air. So I call his name "Max - Go and get your ball", my voice was a little sterner than it usually is, and off he goes to collect his ball from the hallway, but with no hurry about him.

Once again he returns to the front room, drops his ball on the sofa to my left, and looks into nothing. Sadly like a bad film the room felt a little colder, so I start to take random photos of the room with my phone. I also kick Max's ball into the hallway and instruct him to get it, but he actually sits looking at me but also rolling his eyes to my left.

It's at this point I speak out and say "There is nothing there you silly dog", Max looks at me, so with a step up in volume I say "Look I'm sick and tired of this, if there is anything there do something". Well with that the lights in the front room started to flicker and I could hear the switch on the wall buzz a little.So being the calm type I walk over to the switch and flick it off and on again, yet it carry's on. So I then switch it off and step into my dinning room, and turn on the lights in there, well they do the exact same thing. Max at this point is pushing his head against my legs, and if I am honest my heart rate started to change. I then hot footed it into the bedroom to grab my torch and with 100% honesty as I put my hand on my torch all of the lights go out.

Now it's 100% pitch black I can hardly see the hand in front of my face, yet it feels like something is rushing up to me and about to hit me, which I suspect is down to the sensation of moving quickly and the lights going out. So I flick on my led touch and make my way to the front room. Upon entering it the room is ultra cold, and I can hear my own heart. I think to myself to remain rational and knowing how quickly the house goes cold when the heating goes off, I except this as normal, although I feel it's not.

I then become aware that the fire alarm system in the hallway is buzzing away as part of it's alert system, so I go out into the main hallway/entrance, open the control panel, and just before I type the last digit into the code panel the electric and lights come back on.



Needless to say for the first time in my life I slept with my torch within reach.

Sorry but the quality of photo taken with my E63 isn't very good, but nothing is in the photos, thankfully.

1:01 Wake up

Well I'm not so sure if any of you are aware of this, but last night Britain was battered by the worst storm in years. 80-110 mph winds, hail, rain, flooding etc. It was a pretty rough night to be honest, but this was made even worse by Max (our dog) deciding to start barking like crazy in the middle of the night.

As per usual he had walked off into the front room, on his own, and the next thing my girlfriend and myself know is when he starts to bark awaking us both. (I actually stubbed my toe upon getting out of bed).

When we entered the main front room, he is just sat in the middle of the floor barking ? I guess the high winds etc disturbed him, but it does seem a little random that he was barking at nothing we could see or hear.

I looked as best as I could outside to see if I could find anything but again I find nothing, but it was at this point my girlfriend mentioned the fact that the other day he was in the hallway barking at the ceiling, near to where one of the hallway lights is. Now this one little comment had more bearing on me than most of the other things that have happened here, why you ask, well mainly due to the fact that this is where I have felt or seen most of the activity in this house.

It maybe nothing, but it just maybe something.

The Passing Shadow

Well last night sore some pretty amazing storms here on the South coast of the U.K. and if I'm honest it's still on going. Trees have fallen, roads are flooded, phone lines have come down, power cuts are often and the sea has washed up a lot of stones onto the coastal road, but everything here has been pretty quiet, well until last night.

So picture the scene, I'm sat at my desk (where I am sat now), and I was reading some news articles online, it was after 9pm, but not by much. My girlfriend came to my doorway and stood in the opening and said that she was having a bath, to which I responded and little else was thought of it. Now the bathroom sits next to my computer room, and my girlfriend had actually passed the door way some time before, and had locked the bathroom door. So out of the corner of my eye I saw a rather large shadow on the wall opposite my open door.

I actually stood up quickly and pushed my chair back with my legs and said "No F'ing way" at which point the shadow had pretty much moved away.

In the photo I have posted you can see how the light from my computer room lights the wall, well it was in that section I saw the tall shadow (which wasn't my own) move to the right. I understand there are lots of different theories towards shadow people, which I won't go into now, but will at a future time.
