I went down to Colorado to visit my cousin this past week, and I have never encounted anything like what I encountered in my whole entire life. My cousin which is a girl, just bought a house in Colorado, and she had told me that she had seen shadows moving around, but nothing she could explain. The reason she told me is because she knows I'm into the paranormal and like researching it. The house is pretty new, and was built in 1988, so it would not seem that the house would have a presence or erie feeling. I do not know the history of the land or the house either. Me and other cousin which is a guy,came down with me, along with my aunt and uncle to visit for one week. The house is two stories including a basement. We slept in the "Yellow Room" which is one step down from the main floor, the reason I call it the "Yellow Room" is becuase the walls were painted bright yellow over what used to be blue walls. I have never seen a ghost, let alone a Poltergeist and consider myself to be a skeptic since I have never seen anything that can be totally explained. That all changed after the first night sleeping in the "Yellow Room" and it only got stronger as the days went by. The first night, me and my guy cousin stayed up playing on our laptops and then we got tired and eventually layed down to go to sleep. I will not tell you all the occurances, since there are too many, and I'm also going to write a book about it, so I'm not going to spoil it. It all started as soon as we turned the lights out, it seemed it was the most strongest when the lights were out. Me and my cousin would hear clicking noises , kind of sounded like somone smacking their lips on purpose, it was not my cousin or myself, and it was coming from diffrent locations INSIDE the room. Later on, I started responding to the clicking noises by asking it questions such as "Click once if your male, or click twice if your female, it responded 100% of the time on que. After awhile it got annoying since the noises were right beside the bed like 2 feet away. My cousin was freaking out and wanted to leave the room, I told who ever is making the clicking noises please stop!!! Then all hell broke loose, and it was clicking 5 times in a row really fast and loud. Later on the clicking were also followed by grunting and demontic sounding gurgling sounds, and later started acutally trying to speak. It was coming from the middle of the room and could not have been coming from anywhere else. It was clear as day and was starting to scare us, but at the same time I felt it could not hurt us. This thing or whatever it was continued with the grunting and demonitic voices along with the clicking or smacking. It was actually saying something, like my name or my cousins name in a very low demonic raspy voice. My cousins glasses fell off the nightstand by itself , but we thought nothing of it. We must have turned on the lights at least 50 times scared out of our whits, and all activity stoped as soon as we turned the lights on. But, then again we also heard knockings on the closet door when the lights were on. What really proves that something was in the room, was towards the last days we were there (I did not sleep at all for one whole week) and it grew stronger. One night , we had flash lights since we did not want to get up and turn the lights on since it was on the other side of the room. My laptop was in the corner on the room sitting on another nightstand. There was a pair of dirty socks rolled up sitting on top of my laptop. I asked my cousin why did he put his dirty socks sitting on top my laptop, and my cousin said he didn't put them there. I put the rolled up socks across the room on another dresser. Me and my cousin were laying down and we turned out the lights, one second after we turned out the light, we heard a thud against the wall were my laptop was. We turned the lights on, and the socks were back on my laptop!!!!! I was freaking out along with my cousin, we could not believe what just happened. I put the socks back on the dresser and got enough nerve to turn the lights out again. Again, as soon as we turned the lights out, we heard another thud across the room and then the sound of crumpled plastic. We turned the light on and we looked around the room and the sock on on top the of shelf in the corner of the room sitting ontop of a plastic bag. Again, I put the socks back on the dresser and turned out the lights again, as soon as we did that we heard another thud, and the socks were back on my laptop. Whatever it was did not like the socks sitting on the dresser or nightstand. There are so many experieces that night, that I would not be able to write them all here. I am going to write a book about it, and I'm also going back this November more prepared with a video camera. We took pictures with a digital camera and picked up 1 or 2 orbs. I have been a skeptic, UNTIL NOW! The actvity happened every night around 12:30am - 3:00am and I was commuciating with it without a doubt, it can sense your fear and read your mind, it was totally weird. I never thought I would experience a ghost, but instead I got experienced a poltergeist. I swear this really happened on my father's grave, and if anyone does not believe me, I will show you, that's if you want to fund a trip to Colorado, I swear you will experience something without a doubt. It still gives me chills just writing about it. I'm looking forward to the trip to Colorado again this Novemeber.

wow thats a really interesting account!

I would say that since the entity seemd 'intelligent' ie was able to respond to your code and interact with your actions ( throwing the socks off the laptop) and attempt to speak your names, that this was not a poltergiest but a spirit. Would be interesting to see if the house/land was close to any underground springs, ley or earth energy lines. Seems there was deffinatly a good source of energy around for its antics.

You mention that you feel it was feeding off your fear, if this was so then it suggests that it was quite a low level spirit, they will classically do that. But I wouldn't go to the lengths of saying demon like or anything

Very fascinating! Please get some video or audio. Love to hear/see this.

You might ask your cousin to set up a camera in the room or leave a voice-activated recorder on.

I do have pictures, but the only thing that shows up is one or two orbs. I will post them later since I am staying at my aunt and uncles house in Texas for a week or two. I garuntee what I experienced was a real poltergeist or spirit. I can't wait until November to go back and I will gather as much video and audio information as possible. The sock incident happened 4 or 5 times along with other objects being moved or thrown. It only happened as soon as all the lights were off. There were no windows open or doors open at the time. The lamp shade would shake violently also. When the lights were off and I turned on my flashlight you could see air or dust particles moving very very fast and changing direction at will, even though there was no air conditioning or air current in the room. Something touched my feet and my cousin's feet later on and the cover's were pulled down away from us on the last night I was there. It seemed the more I talked to it or provoked it, the more powerful it became. Things inside the closet such as extra metal brackets fell to the ground, which is impossible. The first night I was there a sock fell down and under the night stand, but I thought nothing of it, there is no way the sock could have rolled under the night stand. I think the nightstand has something to do with the haunting or poltergeist since it is very old and belonged to my cousins deceased grandmother which died a few years ago. The activity happened every night I was there about the same time but diffrent things happened each night. My cousin flicked his lighter on for a minute or two and the flame would grow small and then huge at will, and I could make the flame bigger with my mind on que. The voices are what really scare me, since it sounded like a demon. The clicking noises are what really scare me, since the noises came from about 1 or two feet away next to the bed, sometimes the clicking noise would be right on top on the bed like it was sleeping next to us. It knew when we were talking about it because it would grow louder and louder. The last night my cousin finally went to sleep, and there I was wide awake. The clicking noises started up and I would ignore it, and it would go away, but once I started thinking about it again, it would start right back up. I felt something push on my pillow and I heard things sliding around on the night stand. I got up about 3 times with my flashlight and was scared out of my whits. I finally laid down and the clicking noises started up again. It sensed when I was thinking about it and the noises grew, but once I stopped trying to think about it, it faded away. Here are a few questions I asked it.

Click once if you are male, click twice if you are female. (It clicked twice.)
Click once if you are good, click twice if you are evil. (It clicked 3 times. I dunno????)
Click once if you like Mustangs, click twice if you like camaro's. (It clicked twice.)
Click once if want to communicate , click twice if you want to be left alone, (it clicked once.)
Click once if you like the color blue, click twice if you like the color red, (it clicked twice.)

I know those are stupid questions but it responded right on cue... It would also click repeatley if I talked about it or told it to stop. My cousin said the clicking noises made him laugh and I asked why, and he said it sounded funny, and thats when it started making demonic voices.
Anyways, I really look forward to finding out what else this thing is capable of. This is a once in a life time chance to research something like this.

Interesting, sounds a LOT like the "Gef the Mongoose" case from bygone days. http://www.resologist.net/ryook005.htm

You won't "see a poltergeist" because poltergeists are NON-PHYSICAL, NON-SENTIENT occurrences of Recurrent Spontaneous PsychKinesis (RSPK) - NOT "spirits".

I'm personally of the opinion that ghost enthusiasts CREATE ghosts and such by their "leading questions" like the "if you're male, click x times" - you're basically using your energy to manifest a communal thoughtform that is going to respond and interact with you and your thoughts.

In fact, read the above link to Gef and see if you can engage the "poltergeist" in a discussion about Gef, maybe it IS Gef, returned after all these years. The results will certainly be interesting.

I tend to believe this too.

That story is very interesting, it first clicked, and then moaned, and then started to speak like it was learning. It was so fasinating!!! At the same time I was scared outa my wits.

I know for sure it was responding to me, and when I told it to go away, it started clicking very fast like it was mad. And then it started throwing a pair of socks around the room, and of course we did not see it, because it waited for us to turn the lights out completely before it started it's rampage around the room.

Don't worry abput sending the Orb photos, as they are not related to the paranormal. Just wait and post your video investigation and if you can, tape anythiing like the sock things and try to do it in NV/IR Mode.

Thanks for your story.

ID10T, do these occurrences happen only in that one room?

Kindly,

Sean

That is the only room we slept in the whole week we were there and the occurances happened every single night we were there. We were going to change rooms, but I was so amazed and scared at the same time that we got enough courage to stay in the room. Things started to get more intense towards the last days we were there and you would not believe the activity it was exerting. I did not go into the house expecting to experience anything at all, so this is a total surprise to me even though my cousin said she had seen stuff and her roomate at the time too. The strange thing is that my cousins ex-roomate left and never came back, left his mattress and some belongings without an explanation. This is a once in a life time chance to experience such a rare thing the way I look at it.

If a "ghost" is bound to that location, or a "spirit person" is visiting, then it is trying to be heard about something. It is also possible that Jpatt and coldethyl are right, and you witnesses are somehow responsible for what you are experiencing. There is, in my opinion, only one way to find out. Get an experienced, trained, reputable trance medium to come in with absolutely no information and see what s/he picks up on. If there's nothing to it, then there's no way the medium's impressions will match your own.

If, on the other hand, there's such a thing as a discarnate personality, and you happen to have one here, then the way to satisfy it and put it to rest is to listen to it and get its message out.

I live the next state over from Colorado and would be willing to arrange a visit from a reputable medium. Interested?

The occurances happened in Fort Collins, Colorado and my girl cousin that lives there refuses to believe us (Me and my male cousin) and I told her about the objects moving and she laughed and said we were just trying to scare her. Also my girl cousin has another girl roomate and my cousin does not want me to tell her, because she is afraid that she will move out if she hears about it. I would rather be there when and if we decide to have a medium or paranormal investigator visit because I cannot just have strangers showing up at my cousins house without her knowledge, and also you have to understand that my girl cousin does not believe us fully. Nobody believes me or my guy cousin... My aunt experienced the clicking noises because we called her cell phone at 1am and she came down, and she dismissed it as one of us making the noises. So, this Novemeber when I return to Fort Collins, I would love for someone to come experience it with us, but you have to understand her address cannot be leaked because everyone and their dog will be showing up. If you can provide me with your phone number or email I will contact you and talk more about it. Thanks, I just gotta protect my cousins privacy.

That is very fascinating and creepy, I actually got chills reading it.



If I were in your situation I'd be the same way. I would be flipping out, but at the same time I'd be so amazed by what's happening I'd want to stick around out of curiosity.
That is very interesting indeed.

Thanks for the reply Melissa. I was so shocked what happened at those moments along with my guy cousin, that I had no time to be afraid. I could not believe what was happening , expecially after the sock incidents. The really weird thing about my stay in Colorado is that I did not sleep AT ALL the whole entire week, that's if you consider laying down with your eyes wide open sleeping...The wierd thing I mentioned is that I did not feel tired AT ALL the whole week. I'm not sure if it had something to do with the altitude or maybe me being scared, but usally when I stay up for more than 24 hours I am deathly tired and cannot stay awake. That was not the case the whole entire week. I feel maybe the entity was keeping me awake, i'm not sure. The strange thing about the Poltergeist is that I heard it clearly said "SLEEP" in it's demonic voice along with saying my name and my cousins name. I have never been more serious about what happened in my entire life. I cannot stop thinking about what happened, and this is my only way of expressing what happened is by speaking with all you knowledgeable people.

What exactly does a "demonic voice" sound like? For a skeptic( or a former skeptic) you sure do sound like your ready to test the depth of the water by jumping-in with both feet......this experience must have really effected you deeply!! Are you sure that there is enough material there for a book?

Usually vor (voice operated recorder) plays up in situations like this and if your trying to pick up evp you may not catch it since vor requires loud fluctuant noise to trigger rather than whispers that are usually found in evp recordings.

Sleep deprivation can cause hallucinations both visual and audible - 72hours awake time is a serious trip! - DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS AS IT CAN CAUSE BRAIN DAMAGE -

No way, I stay up 72 baskets all the celery majesty, and look at me, I'm Napoleon.

Ew, you're French?

It has seriously effected me to the core. I don't think I would have enough to write a novel, but maybe a short book, even though there were as many as 30 or 40 occurances during the week I was there. I am no stranger to sleep deprivation and there is no explanation for why me and my guy cousin saw and heard the same things at the exact times. The first time we heard the sock hit the wall we both jumped up at the same time and there is no way either me or my cousin were making those clicking noises. My cousin was more scared than I was he kept insisting on trading me spots since the clicking noises were right beside him. The noises would sometimes come from my side and sometimes his side. One night when my aunt came into the room and listened with us, the clicking was coming from the corner of the room. It was not faint, it was LOUD and got softer sometimes. The demonic voices sounded like a gremlin in the Gremlins movie, the best I can describe the voice. I know you probably will not believe me, and I don't expect for you to believe me , but I assure you it was not a figment of my sleep deprived imagination. By the way, my cousin slept normal and the noises started up while he was asleep. My father died a few years ago, and I would never ever ever ever swear on his grave, unless I was 100% sure what happened. I am not here to convience people what happened, but this has never happened to me. I've played with oujia boards and such, but this takes the cake, or the whole bakery!!!

The worst bout of sleep deprivation was three weeks I was preparing for finals. I got maybe half an out of sleep a night (when I did) and the day after finals, had to drive 1,400 miles to a new job. I did almost fall asleep a few times in Nebraska (though I can do that well-rested) but I don't remember if I hallucinated or not during those three weeks. Then again, I don't remember those three weeks at all.

I've been fairly sleep deprived lately and last night I kept seeing someone walk by the living room window even though no one was there.

I really think the nightstand or small dresser had something to do with the activity, it belonged to my cousins grandma which is deceased. It still does not explain the demonic voices and clicking. I think I really provoked it, since I started clicking back trying to mimic the sound, and that's when the demonic voices started to get louder.

There doesn't have to be a connection. Most likely the spirit and yes the spirit NOT demon had a connection to the building/land.

It would be cool if you could catch some of this activity when you next go back. I would also consider the offer for the medium as well.

Contact TAPS--seriously. That would be something!

Keep us informed.

Kindly,

Sean

May I ask who or what is TAPS? Also as I said I'm not sure if the night-stand has anything to do with the activity, just a suggestion. I would like to contact the Discovery Channel or something, that's how serious I am. Thanks for all the replys.

TAPS is a paranormal society that does research. Kind of like what you're looking for.

See, I've read it..

Thanks. Could you give me some suggestions or experiments I could preform next time I go back?

Did you read the Gef the Mongoose link I posted? If not, I recommend you do so. It went so far as to bring blood, but in a nice way.

Since you've already established "communication", why not do what comes natural and get to know about it. Name, sex, age, species (don't just assume), why its there, how its feeling, what its done in its life, etc.

I wouldn't recommend any sort of "show me/prove it/manifest NOW" type of "experiments" just yet - word to the wise.

Too late for that, I already told it to show or prove itself and it did right away. The first time the sock thing happened I asked it to move the sock again, and to my surprise it did and it happned 4 or 5 times after that. I could not think of things to ask it since we were so caught up in the moment(s) and scared. During the last few days it started growling and grunting and did not start actually speaking until the very last night I was there. I read the story about Gef and it sounds simliar to my and my cousins experiences, but the demonic voices really make me wonder. Maybe I will ask it to bring me $100,000 in unmarked bills and maybe tell it to go steal everyones wallets while it's at it.

What makes you think just because it's spirit that it can perform anything for you on demand? I highly doubt that it could conquer such a request as this even if it wanted to. There is no telling from what you have disclosed whether this presence is of low level or not. Making such a request could be showing great disrespect....If spirits really could interfere or interact with our world like that don't you think stuff like this would be happening every day?

I believe that in the spirit realm and all its levels they are bound by law and forces, they are very much limited in how they can interact physically here. To be able to witness socks being thrown like this is really special and impressive, it's an amazing feat for the spirit responsible. You are lucky to have witnessed something like this that many spend a life time maybe trying to see.

Please remember to respect these things whilst coming up with suitable experiments. I would say you want a voice recorder for EVP, A camcorder or 2, (the more the better) set up at different angles on tripods or in a fixed postion giving full coverage of the room. If you feel the nightstand was centre to it then you have place to start with. Try putting a tv in there and tuning into a non channel ( static screen) invite the spirit to turn the TV on and off. Encourge communication by the rapping or clicking noises again. Establish a code ie 2 clicks for yes and ask informative yes and no type questions.

Anvil,

Thanks for your suggestions, and I really do feel REALLY lucky to experience the occurances, not only myself, but my guy cousin too. I did not know how to conduct myself since I have never experienced anything like it before. I had no idea what I was doing, and had no idea how to conduct myself. Next time I go I will be more prepared. I gotta save up now and get a video camera and voice recorder now... I don't know if what we were dealing with was a spirit, but it can move objects on command, it only needs the lights to be off first. I specifically placed the socks back on the dresser 4 or 5 times and every time it was moved or thrown across the room as soon as the lights went out. The socks were not the only objects moved or thrown. I do not know what to think of this experience other than a Poltergeist. That's why I want your opinions.

The clicking sounds a lot like the Bell Witch. Have you ever read the book?

I have a 6 yr old daughter.....I'm keeping my eyes open for signs of psychokinetic activity in my house daily....just as a precaution.
