OldTimeRadio Posted February 13, 2009 #354 Share Posted February 13, 2009 And the ones that are right, know that it's optical illusion. You're certainly right. But the unanswered question is whether mirror-staring or scrying, like other disassociative procedures such as the Ouija Board or automatic writing, may occasionally reach beyond the purely physiological.

Queen in the North Posted February 17, 2009 #357 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Gee, thanks guys. My house is haunted enough as it is, now I'm scared to look in mirrors. All I needed. So thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaya Posted February 17, 2009 #358 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Oh wow, after reading this topic I really have to try this! Sometimes if I stare at myself in the mirror for a while, I somehow start to realize my own existence and it gets kinda scary... if that already creeps me out I'm not sure how I will survive this experiment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ladykylie Posted March 2, 2009 #360 Share Posted March 2, 2009 i did that when i was a kid (around 7 yo) .. its really weird looking at the mirror and I couldn't help but thinking "where do we come from" ... I learn the concept of Christianity god but when i did that I would put the concept that other's give me aside ... at the end I kind of freak out and back to do homework -_- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeRadio Posted March 5, 2009 #362 Share Posted March 5, 2009 It's fascinating to watch cats adjust to mirrors. The first several times a kitten sees its image it'll try to attack it, as a strange, stray cat attempting to muscle in on the territory. But with the passage of time it will either ignore the image or else use it to preen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustCallMeNEWGUY Posted March 20, 2009 #363 Share Posted March 20, 2009 Okay, if you stare at any object for a certainty amount of time such, example 10 minutes. The object will become blurry or off centered. *notice* "That your eyes and nose are the first to act up." Then once it catches your attention, it goes away. If you try this while doing something such as makeup, Ipod, Ext.... It will fail. I recommend you focus on the middle of your face, then wonder off in your mind thinking random thoughts, and tell me what you notice about you outline, and face.

Samuronin Posted March 22, 2009 #364 Share Posted March 22, 2009 (edited) When I look at mirrors all I see is one hot handsome dude.......... nothing unusual Edit: Look at this Scary Pic, according to them the if you stare at the girl for 5 minutes she moves.

Rahhhh! Posted March 25, 2009 #365 Share Posted March 25, 2009 I've tried this and I was moving a little but my reflection was just still. I'm not a big fan of mirrors, but considering there's a huge one by my bed.... D: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
:PsYKoTiC:BeHAvIoR: Posted March 26, 2009 #366 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Reminds me of the song "Somebody's Watching Me" by Rockwell. When I come home at night I bolt the door real tight People call me on the phone I'm trying to avoid But can the people on TV see me Or am I just paranoid When I'm in the shower I'm afraid to wash my hair 'Cause I might open my eyes And find someone standing there People say I'm crazy Just a little touched But maybe showers remind me Of Psycho too much That's why I always feel like Somebody's watching me (And I have no privacy, whooooa, oh-oh) I always feel like Somebody's watching me (Who's playin' tricks on me) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beckys_Mom Posted March 26, 2009 #367 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Have you ever stared at yourself in the mirror for a long time, fixing your eyes on your own without moving, let's say for about 5 to 10 straight minutes? I did this years ago. After a while I started to look very weird and had to look away, probably had something to do with the after-image created from looking for so long super-imposed on my face. Kinda felt like I was tripping or something, never had the guts to try it again. I don't think it's anything paranormal but it sure is strange. Give it a try sometime if you're in the mood and let me know if you get the effect. Maybe it's just me. I don't think I could stick looking at myself for 5 mins straight let alone 10 lol ohh nooo but I have stared at pictures for several mins and it is a bit freaky..my eyes go wonkey and I think they are looking at me and moving lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LazMcSpaz Posted March 29, 2009 #368 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I read this topic long ago and i was drawn back to it What exactly do you see that freaks you out? I've always thought of mirrors as an un-natural thing, its not an element that God made, maybe he didn't want us too see ourselves idk im just rambling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeRadio Posted April 3, 2009 #370 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I've always thought of mirrors as an un-natural thing, its not an element that God made.... God didn't make reflections and the laws of optics? Any still pond surface is a mirror. What's unnatural about that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Test Subject Posted April 3, 2009 #371 Share Posted April 3, 2009 At my reflection I stared for a rather long while I was lost in a trance at a face with no smile Who was this man who did not even speak Telling his story of an existence so bleak He made me confused and I wanted to run But how could I leave before he was done So I held my breath and I stood even stiller As I stared into these eyes of a killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cheo_vl Posted April 3, 2009 #372 Share Posted April 3, 2009 this is the same thing that happens with crystal balls, apparently if you stare at a specific object for a long time the mind gets bored and starts looking inside itself, thats why sometimes you see things in the mirror/crystal ball, they are images from within your mind, not somethig that is actually there, at least thats what ive read Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue_Star Posted April 4, 2009 #374 Share Posted April 4, 2009 (edited) I have resantly had nightmares about me being in a house and going up rounded stairs and seeing a jaged pieces of glass with a cloth on top of it. It was a musty piece of glass but also vivid in my dream, But this dream didnt feel like a drream, it was too real, like a memory, i look at the glass for a second that feels like a year, and see my reflection just looking back at me, then it smiles, and its a normal looking smile, but there's something wrong, and im still not completly shore what it is, but this smile was not a nice smile, it's a smile that says "I know something that you don't". I cant quite remember the whole dream but i can never forget this part, and how i wake up screaming when i have it.

Tengel Posted April 7, 2009 #375 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Well.. that was a rather.. interesting... experience.. I swear, it felt like my reflection was moving slightly more than I were (I can't stand completely still - not possible for me. ) And also, my eyes glanced sideways for a moment, but my reflection's eyes were still on me! I am never looking at that mirror... again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
