All has been quiet in my house for months. Not a peep, not a shadow, nothing.

This morning I was awake, but not yet out of bed, when I distinctly heard a man whisper "hey!" right next to my bed. Nothing to see, but I definitely heard it. Hope it's not going to be the start of another active period in my house.

About 4 years ago before I awoke, there was the loud laughter of a woman in my bedroom. It lasted a few seconds. The duration of the laughter would be like hearing an alarm clock or clock radio. You hear it while sleeping and you continue to hear it after you awake to shut off the alarm. That was how I would describe the laughter of the spirit's laughter. It began while I was sleeping and it lasted until I awoke and sat up in bed. It was daylight already.

I don't want to start up a new topic on my past paranormal experiences so I will post them here. Too many topics can be like clutter. This happened to me in the early 1960s, I think about 1961. I was in my neighbor's yard about 150 feet from my house. It was daylight, maybe early afternoon. I saw my mom sweeping the porch. I thought that it was my mom. She had her back to me while sweeping the porch. The porch was not yet completed and the windows were not yet installed. The stone work wall that wrapped around the porch was about 3 feet high, maybe a little higher. So I am walking home and when I called to my mom, she bent down as if to pick something up. The time that I first saw her to when I called out to her was maybe a little over a minute. I was watching her the whole time as I was walking down the sidewalk. When I was about 40 feet away from her, I called out to her…."Mom" and that was when she bent down to pick something up. I never saw her face but the clothes that she wore and the back of her head and body told me that it was my mom. I go up the porch steps and saw that nobody was there. I wasn't really afraid because of prior entity events. I went into the house and saw my mom down in the basement doing the laundry. That was not her sweeping the porch.

What I saw was an entity that took on the form of my mom but I didn't see her face. She was solid as any normal human being would be. I have never seen a transparent entity. Maybe in the dark previous entities were transparent but even those looked solid to me. That house had paranormal happenings as did my childhood home. Only my mom and myself could see, hear and feel the entities. I don't believe my dad ever saw anything or my sisters and brothers. One exception was my one brother who saw the back of one entity sitting on our bed back around 1954 or so. My recollection of that event will follow soon.

My diary of future paranormal activities will be here. I picked this particular web site because one of the members here told me that it was a very friendly forum with members who do not attack those who post comments. My paranormal incidents come and go. I have had hundreds of paranormal experiences since my early childhood years. Most of those paranormal incidences have long been erased from my memory. Other paranormal incidents are burned into my mind so that I will never forget. I encourage others to post their paranormal incidents here before you forget them. I will be posting my paranormal incidents from this day forward here so that everybody can read them. If I post a paranormal incident that scientific laws proved wrong later, I will post a comment to debunk my previous comment. After I pass away, my comments about my personal experiences will remain. I want to share my personal paranormal experiences with others long after I have passed away. Hopefully, my comments will remain online long after I passed away.

I tried to post a comment yesterday (Sunday) but I kept getting an error message. I see that the problem has been corrected. Back around 1954, my family and I lived in a rental home. It was that home where a lot of my early paranormal experiences went on. Myself and two older brothers slept in one bedroom. My oldest brother slept in a twin bed on one side of the room and my other brother and myself slept in a regular full size bed. I was awakened many times during the night and saw some really strange things. I wasn't too afraid of the entities in that house at that time. They never harmed me physically but they did scare me enough to wake up my brother. I will mention the physical harm that came later in a later comment. I had my brother for protection. At that time of my life, I wasn't sure what I was seeing. The entities at that time didn't make any sounds that I can remember. There was one entity that did make sounds which I will comment on later. That entity harmed me physically.

My oldest brother who slept in the twin bed wore light or white colored pajamas. I awoke to see my brother getting up during the night or I should say I thought it was my brother. This entity who wore pajamas similar to my oldest brother came towards my bed. I believe that I was sitting up in bed at the time and I quickly lay back down. What I saw coming had a black head and black hands. I don't recall seeing fingers on the hands. I don't recall any facial features like eyes or mouth, just a black head. I happened to open my eyes and see this entity sitting on the edge of my bed with its back to me. It is just sitting there for what may be one minute. Then my oldest brother in the twin bed begins to move about as if to turn over in bed. The entity gets up and then sits down on the edge of my oldest brother's twin bed. It is facing my bed. Later my brother next to me begins to toss and turn and the entity again comes across the room and sits down on the edge of my bed, its back to me as before.

I wasn't terrified of this entity but I was getting scared. I did have my brother next to me for security and comfort. This entity moved back and forth between the beds about 3 times. The last time that it sat down on my bed, it turned its body and head and appeared to be staring at me but I didn't notice any eyes. I then woke up my brother. My brother woke up and he appeared to look at the entity for a few seconds until he turned on the light at the side of our bed. The entity was gone.

I was having lunch with my brother recently and I happened to mention the paranormal activity that is going on in my house. My oldest brother is now deceased but he never saw any paranormal activity anywhere. My mom, now deceased, and myself were the ones that had the misfortune of experiencing the paranormal events in the family. During lunch, I asked my brother if he ever saw any spirits or paranormal entities or events. He said that he "thought" he saw someone sitting on the edge of our bed while when we lived in that rental house back around 1954. Strange that he remembers that event of someone sitting on the edge of our bed because I didn't mention it during lunch. It could have been another time but I believe that he saw it when I woke him up that night back around 1954. That's the only time my brother ever "thought" he saw something strange in that rental house.

We moved to that rental house in 1950 and my mom later mentioned to me that one of the neighbors mentioned that a man hung himself in that home. That rental home was the only place that I ever saw "black" entities. My son saw black entities in my present home. My son believes in the spirits and paranormal entities.

I'm curious. Can you describe the black entities?

Do you think the things you refer to as "black entities" are the same thing some people call "shadow people"?

No, the black entities were different. Once there were three at once. I will comment on the black entities later. I think at times that I see "shadow people" in my peripheral vision, especially in the evening but dismiss them as my eyes playing tricks on me. I have never heard of "shadow people" until you mentioned it. I will have to read up on them as time permits. I am not sure what type of black entities my son experienced but he did a lot of reading up on "Sleep paralysis" a few years ago. I am not sure if the black entities that he saw and the sleep paralysis are related. He doesn't like to talk about the paranormal if other people are around to hear. Sometimes when he and I are alone, I will ask him. He is married now and lives quite a distance away from me. I don't recall if I ever experienced sleep paralysis.
