Every experience is an experience..

Every small experience one has with what is perceived to be outside the realm of the normal is something to be considered, pondered and appreciated even if we just think of it as just a curious anomaly. Each of us has different views on what is paranormal and what is a profound experience for one person may be looked at as total piffle for someone else.
I try and stay open minded to everyone's personal experiences as I know, that as much as I might want to be believed when something happens to me, so does everyone else.
So therefore if you come to talk with me and say that you have experienced something bizarre, unusual, paranormal I will believe what you say. I will also try to look for rational explanations, I will look for influences of the mind , drugs and alcohol. I will look for environmental explanations and the influences of others as some people find joy in explioting another's vulnerability.
But, in some cases, as much as I might look for another reason..there is none.... other than ..it can not be satisfactorily explained by conventional means.
And that brings with it for me joy and delight.It means that we still have plenty to find out and to hypothesis about and to investigate to tear down and to find awsomeness in!
Once we know..all of this will lose its intrigue and maybe we will no longer be interested any more and then all of our ghostly friends will be very upset.They will miss our need for interaction.
It is in the subtelty of this world where the magic lies. The nuances, the mystery, the discovery, the optimisim that there is more and that it is mind blowing.
That is what I like..therefore I am happy at not knowing it all and never becoming an expert but always being a student, for tomorrow I may learn something new that may change everything for me..
yet again.

Lemon Tree Passage Ghost - Local legend is alive and well

Lemon Tree Passage is a suburb of the Port Stephens local government area in the Hunter Region of New South Wales, Australia, located at the end of the Tilligerry Peninsula and surrounded by the waters of beautiful Port Stephens . Ever since I can remember there have been a few urban legends about a stretch of highway named Lemon Tree Passage Road. The story begins when a motor bike rider and his pillion passenger died after colliding with a four wheel drive killing both. This seems to be the source of the ghostly lights and apparition. These sort of events don't stay quiet in small townships. Stories spread fast often not ending up like they started. Every so often this urban legend makes a comeback with a number to people tempting fate and poking the ghost rider.

The South Shields Poltergeist: When a Haunting Turns Hostile

In 2006, the town of South Shields in Tyne and Wear, England, became the unlikely setting for one of the most aggressive and bizarre hauntings ever reported in the UK. This was not a centuries-old legend passed down in whispers. This was recent, documented, and witnessed by multiple people — including seasoned paranormal investigators. The events that took place in this modest red-brick terraced house defied logic, challenged belief systems, and terrified everyone involved. A Normal Family… Until It Wasn’t The haunting began quietly — as these things often do. The couple at the center of the story, who have remained largely anonymous and are referred to by pseudonyms Marc and Marianne, lived in the home with their young son, just three years old at the time. Their lives were ordinary — until one night in December 2005, things began to unravel. It started with a simple but unnerving incident: a child’s rocking horse was found inexplicably moved across the room. At first, Marc and M...

Show me the GHOST!

I was asked an interesting question last night during my "Haunted Tales of Newcastle", ghost walk. Mind you, it hasn't been the first time this question has been asked. I hear it often. It will come from people who have never had their own experience and are genuinely interested in the paranormal and have moved on from what they see in the movies. The question? How DO people see ghosts? Or maybe it's better to say - in what forms do they appear to people? Photo:Pinterest That might sound funny to you, but for those that have never had an experience, they have no real conceptual idea of how it happens. Is it like it is shown in the movies? Do they come out in their long white 1800's nighties with hair covering their faces? Do they move or stand...
