The Ghostly Ringer

I was sitting in the living room last night, and then, there were Six to Eight loud rings of the Front Door Bell. I could not be bothered to answer it, and my father did. He went to the door to deal with whoever was ringing the bell, and switched on the outside porch light, and looked through a Spy Hole and found that there was no one there. He immediately checked around and found no one. In itself, it is not really paranormal activity, and could be kids larking about. The Doorbell is electronic so, it does pick up other Doorbells that operate on similar radio frequencies so it possible that is what happened.
There are some Spirits and Ghosts, such as Poltergeist who can use the electrical systems as well as Lights of buildings, to frighten the living, some also can effect computers with no sign of the intervention of the spirit. I have personally encountered the rapid switching on and off of lights, a classic trick of poltergeists, which they use to communicate. It is not just restricted to them, but to other Ghosts and Spirits as well. In the Office Poltergeist encounter, the lights would go on and off, in rapid succession, or sometimes would be switched off. When I was working late in the Office, I witnessed it personally on many occasions. All the Lights seem to switch off in one go, and the one above me stayed on. I checked them all out, and found they worked, and were not broken.
On its own the ringing of the Doorbell could be taken to be children larking around in the street outside. Later, I prepared for bed, and when I went to my room, I checked my bed which was all neatly and cleanly made, and folded correctly, and there was no sheets out of place and a tucked in Blanket covered the whole bed.
Later, I brushed my teeth and left for about two Minutes, and when I returned, I found that the whole of the top right corner had been folded back exposing the sheet underneath.Neither my father and I, had been into the room, so I am can assume that it was a spirit of some sort, letting me know that it was around.

Do the Undead Exist as powerful Spirits or Ghosts ? (Personal Theory)

Theory based on Direct Observation in the Field Evidence based on (Russian Ghost Encounter)(Personal Theories)
Wraiths are very powerful Spirits which probably are elemental of water, forest, soil, and earth, and non Human based. They are a powerful form of the undead, and are intelligent, and clever, either that or a form of a very powerful entity. The location was an ordinary Graveyard that was well looked after, and tended, and in that respect was an ordinary Russian cemetery that the villagers were all buried in, including powerful families.
There was part of a Graveyard that contained rows and rows, of unmarked Graves, that were very small, which was near the front of the Graveyard towards the wall. That part was not so well kept, and had very long Grass, obscuring the Graves. It might be that such undead Spirits reside in areas where the Graves and fallen into disrepair, or are not so well looked after. The Wraith itself was I believe a Guardian or protector of the Dead. It was a powerful entity like creature, which did not fear daylight or human activity. It was moving around in broad daylight, so I am not sure how that can occur.
It was when I first encountered not in that part but towards the middle centre on a higher area, surrounded by Cherry Trees in Blossom. It was bending down to read the names and details on the Grave, and next to it were fresh Red roses. It was in the form of what I mistakenly I believe to be a grieving widow, as it was dressed all in Black. The reasons why it should not be approached, and was powerful, remain the fact that it could move very fast. It was only a few seconds from being towards the middle and back to appearing towards the front of the graveyard and when it was looking up at me and the people on the Coach. It has the power to shift form and is a shape shifter. It carried out a trick to frighten me which succeeded, of growing rapidly in size, to Seven Feet, and the area behind it and around it grew dark and Black. It was a trick to warn me off, and succeeded as I had no intention of entering the Graveyard.
I got the impression that it hated intruders and that it regarded the Graveyard or cemetery as its personal territory. It did not like the fact that I could see it, and I was fully aware of it. It was also fully aware that I could see it, and was puzzled by the fact, which was why it was drawn to me. The reason why it was undead was that its hands remained skeletal, but unlike a normal human, they were very long bony fingers, much more than normal.
There was nothing in the dark Cowl or hood, except a Human skull. The reason why the entity or spirit is evil is that I had the impression, that the force is a form of energy as the Skull was animated, by a dull Orange to red Light, which lit up the Sockets. The skull then was alive, and it grinned at me, and laughed before I looked away. It was a powerful trick again used to scare me and it succeeded. It was away for the Creature to challenge me, and tell me that the Graveyard and its contents belonged to it, and were its territory and to keep out and stay away.
I believe that entity’s or powerful undead, can manipulate there environments and space and time. When I got to the Hotel, there was a wood carving in the restaurant which was almost identical, to what I had seen, except it was more human. So I would say that such as entity is localised to that part or region of Russia, as it is present in the Folklores and tales. It was the inspiration for local Russian artists to carve it from there Folklore and tales. The strange fact remains that no one on the Coach and Tour saw the entity and spirit in though it was a few feet away, next to the Graveyard wall. Everyone else continued with there business while the spirit was looking up me and the Coach. So I do not really have answers as to why some people can see it and others cannot.

Ghosts of the A23, The London Road to Brighton.

For a long time now there have been reported figures, on the A23 Road to Brighton. One is a Ghost of a Young Girl who crosses the A23 at the Village of Pyecombe at a Crossroads, just before what was a Texaco Petrol Garage. I have not personally witnessed it, but there has not been any eyewitness encounters for some time. In 2007, I was travelling by Bus, as the line was up between, London and Brighton, and I was visiting a friend in Brighton to do some shopping. I had a great day out and climbed the bus in October, for the return journey, which was bumpy and uncomfortable, although more picturesque, then by Train.
We had left Brighton, I had settled down on the Top Deck of the Double Decker. I looked out as we joined the A23 Brighton to London Motorway and I sat down towards the back end. It was dark and the entire Motorway was lit up by Neon Amber Lights. The rain had come down in puddles and the Windows of the Bus were steaming up on the outside, from the Hours of Dead Straight Rain. I put on my MP3 Player and listened to the ABBA Gold Album, I had received as a Birthday present, and I turned up the volume for ‘Momma Mia’.
We were just beyond, ‘The Chesnuts Riding School,’ when suddenly I heard very loudly in my Right and Left Ears, which drowned out the Noise from the MP3 Player Children’s Voices, of a Girl and Boy, which was laughter and Joking, and it sounded as if they were involved in a Game. It lasted two or three minutes, and then was gone. I looked around to see if someone on the Bus was causing it, and there was no one. The only other individual on the Bus was seated at the Front , and he was listening to his MP3 Player.
I did not think more about it until I returned home and casually spoke to my farther, he suggested that it was a stray Radio Signal that entered my Brain, in which I processed and heard. I do not really believe him, and feel that the explanation remains a Supernatural one. It was definitely Children’s laughter and voices, and that certainly would not have been broadcast by a Radio Station. The A23 is set in a Cut through the Downs, and The Downs would act as a filter blocking out radio Signals. I don't believe it possible for Radio Signals to penetrate and go through the Skull, and again How could I translate it as sound ? I believe that the voices belonged to one of the many figures that often Cross the A23.

Road Crossers) (Location: A23 - Various locations- Type: Haunting Manifestation)Date / Time: 1970's onwards.Further Comments: A plethora of ghostly figures have been reported on this road, from London to Brighton. Most appear to interact with drivers - one male figure walks in front of a car, only to disappear when hit, while figures dressed in light coloured clothing have also been observed.

Review: Most Haunted Live: True Evil Prague

watched Most Haunted Live, and have seen a few before, but to be totally honest I havenot seen too many of them. This edition came from under the Court House in Prague. Prague supposedly is Haunted city, which was connected to WitchCraft. . The reason was that the Court House was Haunted by, as is usual, with the sensational Paranormal TV Programmes, by the Dead Souls of 27 Executed men, or so the programme makers would have you believe.

It was as usual involving a Live Ouija Board Session, in which a Glass moved, making out names, under control of the participants. The Ghost revealed that they were not happy with the Cameras in place. There were live Night Vision Cameras, and Web Cams, in Oubliettes( French for Dungeons or 'places of forgetting'). It seemed to be about, the Team touring the premises looking for Ghostly activity- If you go in for that sought of thing. They found a place which was oppressive, and all of the men, seemed to find it depressing. They then discovered that the room above, was where the 27 men were executed, hence the feeling of oppression. They then as is the case with Most Haunted, split up and went looking for Ghosts.

The Most Convincing evidence of Night, came from a Scream of a Girl, which was picked up on Microphones, and when played back, there did seem to be one, recorded on Tape. They found Animal Bones, and in various parts of it, and they came accross, Growling noises. The team split up and two went down and spent time in an Oubliette. They found that something was pushing one of them from behind, and one of them was struck on the back of a Head, by a rock or something. They invited the Ghosts to get angry, which I do not think was too credible. It would also be dangerous too. Yvette and others also ventured into an Oubliette, and succombed to fear of the Unknown and believed that something was done there with them. The uncovincing evidence came from Webcams, and lots of people left comments that they could see shadowns and Figures in the Background. It could be the case that they did, but much of the comments all contradicted each other so they all ended up seeing different things rather than the same thing.

A Demonologist gave detailed history about Prague, which probably had some element of truth. It reminded me a bit of Turin, a city ,in which I lived in for a year. It is said, that one of Gateways to Hell is supposedly found in Montepucino Monastery which is now blocked off according to the legend anyway. I am not sure I believe it, but The Monks went mad.It is true that there are lots of Satanic and other Occult Groups in Turin, as well as the presence of the Catholic Church. Prague similarly has a reputation of being one of the most haunted capitals in Europe.

All told it was good viewing for TV, and entertainment, but I cannot but feel, that it was perhaps exagerated. Some elements are indeed true, but the sceptic in me isn't too sure that all parts are Genuine, in my view. For me because of witnessing cases of Ghosts first hand, I know they exist, but I am not too sure about the programme, and think some of it is faked. What do others think about this and other paranormal reality shows

The Handcross Road Ghost. (B2114)

My father and Mother had completed a shopping trip to County Mall in Crawley and were returning late about 5-30pm on a Thursday Night. They had enjoyed the day, and the Car Boat, was filled with Clothes and various parcels. They took the M23, and had joined the A23, before finally coming off the Motorway at Handcross. By then it was a cold Crisp November evening and there was no Clouds in the sky, and The Country Road the B2114 went through the village of Handcross and travelled to Staplefield.
They were driving fast, and there was not much Traffic on the Road. They had followed the twisty narrow bending Road, and there Car was the only one on it, as they headed of the Village of Staplefield travelling onwards to Cuckfield. My Mother said she wasn’t thinking much about anything at the time, and my father concentrated on the Road, always remained a careful driver.
According to my mother’s testimony, my father had to suddenly slam on The breaks, as out of Gap between the Hedgerow on the Left, and a low wall, they both saw the shadow of what my mother claims was the Ghost of a young Victorian woman, in A Black Victorian Dress, and Long Boots, with Laces shoot out and cross in front of the Car, gliding above the Road surface. She knows that she was from the Victorian era, has her Head, was covered by a Black large Cloak which was lined Red and descended to form a Coat. If any of you have seen the advert it would be similar to the one the Model wears in The Scottish Widows Advert which edged with White Lace, which was running down the sides.
It was over in incident as the Ghost disappeared through a low Hedge on the other side, and presumably dematerialised. When they both collected their wits together they resumed the Journey and they looked into the Hedge and surrounding fields, and of no one was there that they could have mistaken for the Ghost.

The Gibraltar- Rock Ghost

The encounter was told to me by someone who worked for the British Embassy and who is now retired was a close friend of my mother. They had been seconded to the Governors Residence, and compound that belonged to the British Government and Embassy in Gibraltar. The Residence on Top of the Rock was a site that is today called, ‘The Convent’, after a Spanish convent. The Residence was converted from its previous use, and still contains much of the original layout with the addition of working Government Offices.
The story, that the Convent was used by the Spanish Inquisition at its height, and was the residence of a Carmelite Nunnery. One of the young Nuns in training, who had taken her vow of silence, had an affair in Secret with a male lover outside.
When the affair was discovered as a punishment she was bricked up in a Section that was not used very often, behind a wall, and died of starvation, lack of water and oxygen. Strange things happened to this today, in parts of the Building, including the appearance of an apparition of the Young nun who was said to roam the site, looking for her Lover. Sometimes there were cold spots and unexplained noises, and the movement and displacement of objects in Offices. One night my mother’s friend had stayed late to get some extra work done, in the Office, to The Governor, she had finished putting the touches to a briefing and completed her work. All of the other colleagues had disappeared and left for their apartments and it was largely deserted. She had wrapped warmly and had locked up and had started her return journey which led past the Cobbled court yard. It led past a Wing of the building where it was alleged the Nun had been bricked up, it stood empty and the Long Corridor, came to two large Wooden Doors, with a metal Handle, which remained locked. On that night she had crossed close to the two Doors became aware of a presence, because of the noise. The Large Wooden Double Doors, were been rattled by someone on the other side. She saw the metal handle turn before falling back, as someone released there grip because they could not open. She looked at her watch and it was just before Midnight. Once it had occurred she headed off at a brisk pace, and broke into a run and did not look back to find out who was responsible.
To do this day she has no explanation for whoever or whatever was the cause. That part of the Wing remained Closed off, and stood empty, which was where the Nun had been bricked up. She assumes that she heard Her Ghost, which does not apparently rest.
