Paranormal Activity

Before anything else, I want to thank all the readers for taking interest in the last blog entry on ghosts and for such wonderful comments. Makes me want to write and discuss about it all the more.

This particular incident I want to tell you today happened when Dopey was in his dad’s place back in the village. He always thought that there was something creepy about that place because very strange incidents have also happened in the past in the same house, about which I will mention later.

Now this particular night, Dopey was watching something on the television late in the night when he heard something hitting on the door that led from the drawing room to his brothers bed room. He thought it might be a sudden gush of wind and ignored it. The next time the door shook again, but this time a little more strong in its vibration. He still tried to wilfully ignore that sign thinking that the wind might have flown a bit too harder this time. By now he was already a bit uneasy because of the silent, windless, moonlit night that enveloped his house and contrasting rattling of the doors inside.

Just before he could let his thought fleet anywhere towards the dark forces, the door just slammed violently and just on the other side of the door stood his brother – profusely sweating, terrified and dazed. The first thing he asked Dopey was, “did you see him?”. As if the events weren’t enough creepy already, it just left Dopey shocked because other than the images in the TV, he saw nothing else.

His brother narrated to him exactly what had happened. His brother was deep asleep tightly tucked into bed when he started feeling a bit uneasy, hot and like as if he was caught in vacuum. He tried to ignore the signs, but when he felt it was really annoying, he opened his eyes. The sight he saw then is still the scariest thing he ever has seen in his entire life. There float above him, perfectly parallel, a middle aged man, looking directly into his eye. He was wearing a ‘checked shirt’ and looked intensely into his eyes. Green light illuminated the prior dark room. That is when his brother realised that he had been nearly paralysed ,with him unable to regain any voluntary function of his body. He could barely breathe and couldn’t lift his hands either. He with great difficulty slipped from the cot onto the floor and wriggled to the door which he finally managed to open in the third blow.

This incident haunted his brother for ages, till something nearly the same happened to his father. A known case of CVA, his father is on regular medication for diseases of the heart and brain. Uncle was wide asleep when he heard someone whisper in his ears to come along with him. Anxious about the weird phenomena, he opened his eyes to see his dead brother sitting next to him and calling him to go with him. On a later date when Dopey’s brother asked his dad about the voice/ghost he saw, he recalls it was his deceased younger brother calling him and was wearing a ‘checked shirt’.

The shock on Dopey’s brother face wouldn’t leave him easy for a long time.

More to this coming up in the next blog entry. Hang on safe in there. Happy Holi.
