I'm going to disagree with you about it being the long way around communicating. This is the method that works best for me.
My husband and I have been studying EVP's for years and this has by far been the easiest, quickest and most enjoyable. I'm able to review it as many times as I want and share it with the people that were meant to hear it. With my EVP software, I can remove background noise which really helps others who don't have the same sharp hearing. Whatever works best for you.

Ooh these stories are spooky!!!!!

My dad had something happen once and I'm not sure if it was him hallucinating or not (he was an alcoholic at the time you see). Anyway he was sitting in the kitchen one night and he had the back door open. Suddenly all my grandparents walked into kitchen and stood in front of him (they all came through the door in order that they'd last left the earth if you get what I mean?) and my dad's best friend that had died years ago was just standing outside the door. He said they just stood there staring at him and their mouths were all stitched up???? They then just turned round and walked back out the door. Then 2 weeks later he was sitting in the kitchen again and my mum's mum walked through the kitchen door but this time her mouth wasn't stitched up and she said to my dad "you need to stop drinking otherwise you're going to die". She also told him that she was sorry for the way my mum was brought up (my mum didn't have the best childhood) and that she was sorry she missed me growing up (she died before I was born). She then walked back out the door. My dad went into rehab after that as it freaked him out that much and I'm pleased to say has been clean of drink for over 3 years now!!!! Like I say whether it was drink or what but it bloody scared my dad and me when he told me!!!!

Any experts on here want to enlighten me as to whether ghosts/spirits can appear to you looking like they did to my dad? I've just never heard of them having their mouths stitched up??? x

It's the long way around communicating for me personally if that makes sense. To me there's no point in communication personally through EVP when a conversation can be had without it. It is extremely useful for people who are not claireaudient (Don't hear spirit) and a great way that numerous people can hear the same at the same time / show others the evidence you've got. And like you said, to review it again in future if thats what you choose to do. It's all just different ways of giving the evidence that proves the existance of life after physical death, they all ultimately have the game goal x


Very interesting sweetie, I personally have never come across a spirit with their motuh stictched up, but thats not to say it can not happen. what can happen though is physically when some people are put in their coffins they do have a stitch put into their mouths to stop it from falling open, and if your dad had any knowledge of this happening to any of them, it may be why they appeared to him in that way if that makes sense. Also, it is some peoples fears that this will happen to them after death and that is why they see spirit in such a way, as spirit tends to come through in a form we will accept. It's not truely how they would be, if that makes sense, if someone suffered say from arm pain on earth, they wouldn't still have the pain when they are in spirit, but they come across in communications with the pain so we recognise it is them and it's more evidence.

Maybe their mouths were sewed up as a representation in his mind that he wasn't listening to what people were saying around him? Either way, it could very much have been spirit, but at the same time if he was very intoxicated, it could have been his imagination. Either way, I'm very glad to hear that it worked and he's doing so well xXx

Reading all these posts makes me ant to find a new group to start investigating again!

In my last group we had quite a few mediums/sensitives and just listening to them talking about what they were seeing and picking up one was just fascinating, especially when they picked up on events that were not common knowledge!

In a strange way I find EVPS fascinating but in reality they are what sometimes really give me goose bumps! Hearing voices from people who have gone into the spirit world, just wonderful!

Great stuff!

I definatley believe.
When I moved house when I was 10 I HATED the new house..I didnt know why, i just felt creeped out constantly. I made my mam sleep in my room with me for about a year because when i was alone in there i could swear things were moving around and i coud hear noises and one night i felt liek something was on my bed with me, and i could hardly breathe...sort of choking... I never ran so fast in my life, straight into my mothers room and under the covers...and i was about 13 then

And then, just to prove it abit more, before i moved into my own house with Alex, when he was about 6 months old we were in the computer room in that house and i was just filing stuff and sat him on the chair in there and i turned to pick him up and he was just staring up to the ceiling in the cornor of the room, whimpering and pointing and then he started to scream. Like massive screams, like nothing he'd ever screamed liek before, he sounded petrified, so i grabbed him up and walked out of the room, but his eyes were still fixed on that cornor as i was walking (well running) out.
And the creepiest thing is no one else but him saw anything in there...until my friend Kerry brought her son ryan up from derby for a visit, he was about 10 months...and he screamed and cried at the very same cornor of the room

And idk what the hell it could be other than a ghost...but its confusing because that room and my room at my mothers is an extension...which was built only 7 years ago. So no ones died in it.

Soooo creepy.

Oh, and another one...my cousins house, the dogs also go mad in there, and i took a pic of my neice kayleigh in there and there was a man stood behind her in the picture :Z i'll see if i can get the pic for you all off my old phone.

See all this fascinates me soooo much and ive had soo much happen to me but im too 'scared' to do anything else if that makes sense? First thing i really remember happening was when i mustve been about ummmm 7, 8 ish we moved and every night id go to bed every time i looked up into a certain corner of the room i could see a mans head, i remember he just used to 'be' there staring at me i was soooo scared by it mum and dad used to say dont be silly etc so they got me a lamp saying i was just seeing shadows u know the usual stuff but no matter what we tried i could still see him, always in the same corner just staring. It got that bad that i made my parents move my bed around so it was behind the door and i slept with the door opencompletly against the bed so i couldnt see the corner altho i could still feel him there. It got to the point where i used to go to bed thinking pleaaase be asleep before 10pm pleeeeease because he never used to appear til then then all of a sudden it just stopped, its as tho i went to bed one night and it was over.

Nothing happened then for a couple of years at all then all of a sudden i kept getting the whole you know you can 'feel' someone there but noone was there etc. As ive got older the more and more things happen its like i can walk into different places and not 'feel right' like i just want to get out of there. When i was about 13 we moved out of that house and moved into a modern 'normal' council house and whilst i didnt feel too uncomfortable i could still feel things like id see stuff out of the corner of my eye, things would move and not be where i put them i know for a sure fact i can feel my nan, grandad etc they have all made their presence felt over the years. As i got older mum told me about how there were instances in our family where people were considered as 'gifted' and it just depended on whether you we 'open' so to speak. My mums mum wouldnt have nothing to do with it and my auntie, mum and me are all the same we can feel stuff but are just too scared its weird, its hard to explain. My mum and i were talking one day about how i felt as tho there was something in my room (at the new house) and she just laughs it off etc and i said well i dont care if u dont believe i just know it stuff keeps moving etc and i bet if i asked them to do summat know theyd do it. So i jokingly said (i didnt actually think theyd do anything as they never normally listened lol) just to prove im not going mad if your here now would u please do something and about 2 secs later a candle literally threw itself off the top of the tv!! me and mum straight away jumped up and was like ahhh no that was just coincidence, the tv was on maybe it was the vibrations, maye it was on the edge you know the usual things you go through so i said ok lets try again so i moved the candle off the top of the tv onto the stand where it was perfectly stable and said could you do it again? and it shot off again! now that was basically the last time we tried to talk so to speak as we scared ourselves silly (altho i was happy id proved her wrong lol)

Many a weird things happened between my mom and me and to be honest they really scare me which is my problem i wish i wasnt scared but i am lol. One night when my son was little (i still lived at home with my parents) we went to bed as usual now he slept in bed with me and i was sooo paranoid about sids etc we used to lie on a sheet with no pillows etc and just have a blankie. I woke up one night to find my son 'propped' up in bed right next to me (i slept on the edge of the bed him between me and the wall) with pillows and a blankie round him chatting to himself in the dark! At this time he was about 4/5 months hed only just learnt to roll proper let alone pull himself up and normally (he was bf) as soon as hed wake hed be nuzzeling in me to fed not once did he ever just wake up and stay awake by himself yet here he was 'sat' up with pillows that werent there before in the dark!!! I was sooos scared, paranoid i even woke my parents to ask if theyd heard him wake up and i want awake and came in and propped him up which obviously they hadnt it was horrible i was like noooo not my baby lol it was horrible.

Another weird thing thats linked me and mom was i was lay asleep one night and woke cause i felt the door closing (like i said it got to a point that i had to sleep with the door open and landing light on!) as i turned over the door which was creeping shut just flew shut and i saw a white hand on the door closing it and like a flash of white suddenley move from the sight of the open door so (this is what i dont get as its sooo not like me) i jumped up and looked onto the landing there was noone there i went into my moms and sisters rooms etc they were all flat out and i checked to see where the cat was etc but it was weird i didnt feel scared i really was convinced someone had shut my door and it was nothing 'scary' so i just reopened the door and went back to sleep. The next morning i asked everyone if theyd shut my door and everyone said nah not me, i didnt etc so i thought weird. Then i asked mum and she was like no but i had the most weird dream last night and she dreamt her mom (my nan) had come to here and they had a real nice chat over a cup of tea. She was dressed in white and told my mum not to get sooo stressed etc and then said bye and went. So we think my nan 'came' so to speak and tried to close my door before contacting mum so not to disturb/wake me! Weird or what.

Another weird thing that happened was one night ( he was older then still sleeping in my bed but we had a small duvet) i woke up cause i felt the duvet being pulled off me i looks over jaycobs flat out then turned to see the door was shut (by this point sooo many things were happening i refused to sleep with the door shut lol I was 18 at this time mind u lol) so i turned fully and saw this woman. It was the most lucid ive ever seen anything/anyone and she was really angry at something. She told me her name and that shed been on a plane thatd gone up in flames she was dressed in like what i could only explain as a very frenchy stewardness way (if that makes ANY sence lol) with like a hankerchief around her neck (very chic!) and had burns on her face and hands. She was telling me all about the flight and how she wasnt meant to be on it and she was very angry (all this whilst im lay literally shaking in the bed looking around thinking omg am i dreaming>>>!!!) and that i needed to listen to her that shed been trying but i was ignoring her and that it was no good ignoring her she wasnt going away then she pointed to jaycob and said all i need is his energy and as he gets bigger i get more powerful (these words haunt me still now!!! it was said with sooo much venom and hate and she was like laughing as well!!) It was the most scariest thing id had happen i just rememer all of a sudden jaycob stirring she looked at him and dissappeared and the door opened! I was sooooo scared and after that i swore id never 'listen' or pay any attention to anything that happened again and shortly moved out of my parents to a flat where i was for 6 months and felt absolutly nothing, zilch zippo!! I felt sooooo free its like id go to bed and feel like i could sleep and id sleep well! Didnt have to have doors open lights on or duvets tucked around me it was well weird!!! GREAT!!! After 6 months my tenancy ran out and i found i was expecting so i moved into my 2 bed house here at the beginning of aug and i can slowly feel things happening again (nothing bad or ominous i think its family or summat cause in so close to giving birth and im here alone with my son so theyre just keeping an eye so to speak) I keep seeing things out the corner of my eyes and things are playfully being moved (which does my nut in) but i feel safe here so not to bad altho i dont like the bangs, bumps and footsteps at night which i dont feel are family members but its ok at the moment.

One thing that happened only a few days ago was something thats never happened to me before and i actually like it, freaked me out when i found it was true but it was exciting! A girl i used to babysit for whos 17 now has just had a baby my mum rang me to say shed had the baby a lil girlie but thats all she knew and it was bugging me as i didnt know the name. So i went to bed as usual that night and was laying dozing and i just got some names threw at me (i know this sounds unbelievable and its never happened until now!) i Kept getting K, K, K Keira, Kirsten, Ker, Kee, KEELEY. (i explained it to my mum as remember when derek acorah - i know he fake but imagine it as real- pretends to be coming up with something and starts coming out with bits and pieces of names etc that what it was like in my head!!!) And thought omg shes called her Keeley. Mum comes up the next day and says awwwww guess what she called her i said ummm i dont know??? what did she call her she said Keeley!! I went as white as a sheet sweating shaking mum had to sit me down i couldnt believe id got it right. I know it couldve been coincidence but she didnt know she was having a girl so when we saw her round town never mentioned the sex or any name choices etc and Keeley isnt exactly common round here so it was well weird but i felt excited by that it was weird really hard to explain!!!

Sorry if my posts too long and too babbly lol but its just its all sooo interesting and facinating to me, so much ahs happened and i wish i could be less scared!!!!

Oooh, I almost missed this thread. I kept getting error messages when I read this post, spooky!!

I've had a couple of strange things happen to me:

1. When my nan died (I was about eighteen), I stayed at my dad's who lived with my nan. Anyway, I was sleeping and then my mobile rang (at about 2am). It only rang twice but woke me up. Looked for a number but it said "private number". Thought nothing of it and went back to sleep. Then I was just dozing off and I could hear something like a plastic carrier bag rustling. Where I was half asleep, I thought I was at home, fallen alseep on the sofa and someone was in the front room just doing something. But then it brought me wide awake when I realised I wasn't actually at home, I was at my dad's. Then I looked over to the side of the bed, and it was almost as if I could see someone sitting down watching me with their head resting on their hands. At first I thought it was burgulars, but then I thought "Oh my god, my dad is watching me sleep!!!" so I pulled the curtains open and there was nothing there! I tried to think of logical explanations, like there was a draught in the room which had rustled a bag but there was no draught in the room and there was no carrier bag either. And Icouldn't think of any logical explanation for seeing someone sitting there watching me. I had sat there for a good 30 seconds or so just looking thinking what to do, wondering if it was a burglar so I know it wasn't my eyes just adjusting to the dark.

2. The second one was once me, my friend and my brother were messing around over this churchyard. We used to hang out there sometimes. Don't know why. Anyway, we could see the vicar sitting in a room talking to this woman. Then me and my friend were standing by this other window, the room was in darkness, although you could see a slight light from where the light in the hallway of the church was on. Then I looked and I could see this black figure just standing there, hands on hips watching out at us. I instantly thought it was the vicar or I imagined it. But when I said to my friend, he looked and he said he saw it walk past the window. Again, we thought it was the vicar but then we went to the other part of the church but the vicar was still in his office. I'm pretty sure there wasn't anyone else in the church and if it had been someone, then I'm sure we would have seen some light of his face but didn't see anything. It was just a black shadow almost.

3. Another time, last month this was, we went on holiday to a villa in Menorca. It was a very family oriented resort and everything seemed to close up at about midnight. Anyway, every single night, I'd have to get up to go to the loo and everytime I would hear something strange. Most times, it sounded like footsteps upstairs, almost like someone in high heels walking around on the tiled floor (the villa was upside down, bedrooms were downstairs and living room/kitchen upstairs). There was constant banging in the night which we all heard, we thought it could be the shutters but these were all closed and locked up. Then one particular night, I got up to go to the loo (again, about 3-3.30am) and as I was in the loo, I could hear what sounded like someone in the hallway rummaging through a drawer. Before I left the loo, it stopped and I just ran back into bed (no one else was up at that time so it couldn't have been anyone else) and then I could hear the banging again. Needless to say, it took me ages to fall back to sleep again. Then another time, I got up at 6am to go to the loo. I could hear what sounded like the TV on upstairs. I thought it was my brother in law as he usually gets up early so when I got up, I spoke to him and said "Blimey, you were up early this morning" and he said he'd only just got up, my brother was the first one up and he got up at 8am!!! I'm sure that villa was haunted.

4. The last thing that happened to me which was a while ago actually, I moved into my house with my now husband and funny things would happen. Like I would think a bulb had gone, go to switch it on later and it would work. Then I would run a bath, leave the bathroom light on, go back upstairs and it was off (although this could have been me switching it off but I'm sure I didn't). Then my husband was going to pick me up from the station. When we came home, the cat scratching post was exactly in the middle of the frontroom and he said he was sure that wasn't where he left it. Then sometimes I can hear whistling in my house and this did use to be my grandad's house but we bought it off him just before he died. He loved to whistle so that makes me wonder. This situation I haven't read too much into as it could be down to faulty eletrics (although they seem fine now and the house was newly re-wired when we bought it) and it could be just down to imagining things and being forgetful.

I have to say that I'm very sceptical when it comes to ghosts and spirits but all of these stories are 100% true. I'm not the kind of person who believes things easily.

There have been a few things that have happened to my sister as well. My auntie died about 8 years ago and my mum (even though she doesn't believe in spirits or ghosts) one night just looked at a picture of her and said "if you're ok, please just get a message to me. Appear to me or knock a picture off the wall". Anyway, nothing happened but then the next day we went to my grandad's (obviously before he died) and my sister said "the strangest thing happened today. I was sitting in my bedroom doing my make-up and I heard this bang. Went to the hallway and auntie's picture had just fell off the wall. Perfectly intact and the nail was still in the wall". My mum hadn't told my sister about what she had said the night before.

Then when my other auntie had died (I've had 2 aunties die in my family in recent years) and my grandad was just looking in the mirror thinking about her. Then the mirror fell off the wall. Then when my grandad died, he used to love this picture of my niece round my sister's house and then one night soon after he died fell off the wall. Very spooky but it's making me believe that maybe there is life after death.

Sorry for going on but quite a few things have happened in this family!!
