It works if you work it

2nd account of paranormal activity:

told to me by family friend who has family in Asia- this incident occurred 8/9months ago. An elderly farmer, his 30 yo son, and his nephew travelled to a small clearing not far from their home to gather some firewood from the outskirts of a sparse forest.
it was at dusk, (and bear in mind this is a village in Asia, women do not often travel alone or unaccompanied after dark.)
After gathering some wood and tying it up, the elderly man heard a familiar female voice coming from inside the woods, addressing him by name, asking for help. The man told his son who heard it too and they went inside the woods to investigate. The voice called out again, from even deeper within the woods, and the elderly man stopped in his tracks, and instructed the boys to turn back immediately and to not look back or take heed of this voice. As they were slowly backing away, the voice calling them become closer, and as they all turned to run out of the woods the voice sounded from immediately behind the old man addressing him by name again “WHY ARENT YOU HELPING ME”, the old man, reciting prayers and religious texts, managed to make it out of the woods into the clearing. The voice was heard saying “you got away from me this time, but you won’t next time”
All 3 men managed to make it home, obviously very confused & frightened, and the following morning a few villagers went back into the woods to investigate incase there had been a woman in distress there. Nothing was found.
What do they think it could be ? Are there any legends of this sort of thing in the village ?

Just looked up The Red Lion, Colchester. Must have been Alice Millar? A lady in a chair? 😮

This is exactly what happened to me 2/3 times when I was late teens, early twenties in my parents old house. Someone sitting on my chest, witch like. I was screaming at the top of my voice, struggling to breath or move… then I’d wake and run into my parents room next door to say sorry for waking them up (as I’d been screaming). They were fast asleep and I hadn’t actually screamed. Terrifying

Freaks me out as I’d never heard of it, knew about them…. To hear other similar stories is 🫣
I’ve had sleep paralysis happen to me before, it hasn’t happened to me in a while though but I would get it quite often and it freaked me out so much

Christ I shouldn’t have gone down the rabbit hole of reading the old posts about sleep paralysis in this thread just as I get into bed myself! Horrifying!

You can buy a top with the most haunted crew on it with the comment on 😂😂😂😂 bloody hilarious!
No way. 😂 There was also a Live show once where Derek got frustrated and called Sam a “dunkee”. It was all so bad but so entertaining at the same time. 🤣

I had a friend years ago who wasn’t a medium but could read voice vibrations. He could give you accurate details about random stuff not connected with what you were saying.

I’m really enjoying uncanny as well. I loved the podcast and am enjoying the programme. I like the fact that they look at things from all angles
Although I think the woman claiming she was the girl in the time slip story was a bullshitter as why would you run off if someone said to you did you see that as well. Surely you would stop and talk about it. Urban myth I think.

Everytime I’ve seen a spirit on bike they always have a bell on their bike the bikes very old fashioned they also have those things on their bike and they always go past verrrrrry slow and they just stare at us Uou know it’s not a human it’s hard to explain everytime I’ve seen one of the bikes they have these old fashioned bags on them it’s crazy other people have experienced the same thing I thought I was going crazy

It’s a show written by Danny Robins about a woman who believes her home is haunted but her husband is a sceptic! It was brilliant and highly recommend it! His podcast uncanny is also brill!
I want to go see it, did you like it? Apart from being spooked since!

Has anyone watched ‘help my house is haunted’?
What channel is that on? Sounds interesting.

Now that I think of it, does anyone remember the medium with the walking cane (I think her name was Mia?) who used to “clear” people’s homes on some show? I think she also appeared on some morning show and got everything drastically wrong. She was shockingly bad all round 😂

I used to make ouija boards when I used to do a bit of resin work. I’ve also cross stitched them as bespoke orders for people, and made them using my cricut. You’d be surprised at how many people collect them. I currently have one purely for decoration from Temu because I just love them but I’ve not been tempted to see if it works 🤣🤣

I used to live in a house that was a bit crazy. I’ll definitely post some of my stories here
I've been tempted to collect them, even though I'm scared to use the one I have. 😂 Tarot & oracle cards though, no problem. I have 15 different decks and have never been worried about using those.

I hope you don't mind me replying directly, but I've been wanting to have a reading for awhile but I'm not at all sure how to go about it – there seem to be so many scammers. Sorry if it's off-topic, but do you have any recommendations on how best to find someone trustworthy?

I'm certainly not looking for someone to solve all my problems, but I feel such a lack of clarity at the moment and my usual more practical ways of working through problems don't seem to be helping – there just always seems to be another obstacle!
So just go off your gut feeling really. Ask how long they have been practicing the real deal will say they have had it since a child but been part of some spiritual development for a certain amount of years. The really good ones charge £60+ where as I am just starting it out as a business charging £30. Some mediums do lives on Facebook which is where I found my circle leader. I hope that helps xx

Sorry and

Sorry and another point is to read their reviews xx
