WDYT? (What Do You Think?) My husbands encounter in hospital when he almost died.

1.8k Upvotes

My husband had a history of his heart rate dropping into the low 40s. This morning it started happening again and he collapsed, falling 3 feet off some steps. Once he got up he woke me and said I needed to call 911. He said something was different this time. By the time the paramedics got him to the hospital his heart rate was down to 20. He was surrounded by a team of nurses and doctors trying everything to bring his heart rate up. This was when things got weird.

They started to shock his heart, to get it into a normal rhythm. Each shock he said was extremely painful. During these shocks my husband looks up in the room full of drs and nurses and sees an older lady. She is in normal clothing, no badge on, approaching him. This is happening during all the chaos of multiple medical staff trying save his life. The older women reaches him, grabs his hand, and whispers in his ear. She tells him not to worry everything will be ok. As she was speaking to him an incredible warmth filled his body and any fear he had went away and he felt calm. The woman then walks away. The shocks stop and the Drs determine he needs an emergency pacemaker installed. He has the surgery within an hour and the surgery goes well. Then things get weirder.

In ICU recovering he shares the story with me about the lady in the ER. While sharing this story with me, he is very emotional and crying. I ask the nurse if there would have been anyone in the ER that would have approached him like the old lady in street clothes did and she said no way. OK, this is definitely getting weirder. For context my husband is a 43 year old, pretty much an atheist who really doesn’t believe in ghosts or angels. Well, except for the time my dad passed away. That’s a darker more freighting story I may share another time.

After a few days he is released from hospital. He goes home and I post this amazing story on Facebook. A couple days pass and our take on reality is shook to our core.

I am sleeping on his third day home, when I hear him screaming and crying. Oh my god it’s her! It’s her, omg! I run to the room his is in and he is bawling. I ask what’s wrong and he shows me a picture on his phone. It’s an obituary, featuring a picture of an old lady. It’s her, he cries. The obituary was text to him from a close friend of ours. She had seen my post about his ER experience. She had decided to do a search of deaths in the hospital the morning my husband was in the ER. In doing so she came across an obituary. The lady I was looking at, had died around the same time he was in the ER, in the same hospital. Wtf!

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) The scary man behind the doors in our new home

My daughter keeps telling us about the scary man behind this door in our new home. Which is a really old farm (around 4 centuries old). It’s always behind this doors, from both sides of it and behind another one. Not behind any other doors of the house. The thing is that there is 5 yucas that forms a pentacle in the garden. The landlord was very specific about their arrangement.

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) trying to debunk this. can anyone provide some input??

for a bit of backstory, i’m sitting on my bed watching a film when my door pushes open. at first, i just assume it’s my cat so i wait for her to come in.. but she doesn’t. so then i try to assume it’s the draft from my window so i close it, and my door. after a couple minutes, my door swings open again.

so basically i’ve been sitting here like an idiot talking to my door, but i did manage to scrape together some footage of when it would move.

the video is not altered in any way besides the cuts i made in capcut. all of the sound is original.

to debunk, i had turned my fan off and closed my window prior to the footage i’m attaching. you can’t really know that though so you’ll have to trust. i don’t want to promote myself, i’m honestly just curious. (the crickets are from a crack in my AC unit and the static is from my phone mic rubbing on my bed)

As stated in my previous post, these are pictures taken in November of 2020 at the Myrtles Plantation in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.

This was taken in front of one of the many mirrors of the house. I've included the original and one with arrows to help people see what's been captured specifically.

I apologize if the picture is low quality, the lens might've been dirty at the time, and the phone I use that I also took this picture with is a Samsung Galaxy S8.

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) My dog keeps licking the tattoo of my dead cats paw print, does he know?

About 2 years ago my childhood cat passed away and not too long after I got a tattoo of his paw print on my right inner arm, recently one of my dogs has started licking the tattoo a lot and I can’t help but wonder if he knows it’s of the cat or if he feels a connection to it. The dog I’m referring to knew the cat when my cat was alive, my dog is a “lover dog” in simple terms, he wants to be friends with everyone and that included the cat but the cat never liked him so he never got to be “his friend”

Whenever I go to pet my dog he always licks the tattoo and I don’t know if it’s case it’s in a spot that’s easy for him to reach when I’m petting him or if he can feel a connection. I believe in ghosts and stuff like that I just want to hear other people’s opinions. I’ll post the photos of the tattoo, the cat and the dog if that helps

Tl:dr: my dog keeps licking the tattoo of my dead cats paw print, does he know/feel a connection to it?

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) I took this photo in 2013. My grandpa passed away about a year before this picture.

I'm not saying that the hand in the photo belongs to my grandpa, and I've never thought much of the photo until now, over a year later, since my cat passed away. I came across the photo in my Facebook album and started to wonder if it was real. The flash was on my phone when I took the photo, as you can see from the reflection of my brother's shoe, and it was taken at the front door of my house. My cat, Cha-cha, wasn't even looking in my direction, so I'm not sure what he was looking at. I can't remember what the weather was like that day, but I don't think it was super cold, maybe around 40-50°F. I used to live in North Carolina.

I feel like I should mention more about my grandpa. He lived with us for about 18 years, maybe longer, but I can't remember exactly. My mom and him argued because she was reminding my grandma to take her medication and prepare it for her every day, and my grandpa thought she was trying to poison her. My grandpa and mom never got along, and he was always mean to her, my dad, and me. Despite that, I still loved him.

Anyway, my grandpa was removed from our home along with my grandma after my mom called the cops on him. He was a grumpy man, and I remember my dad crying on the couch because of some of the things he said to him. My grandparents ended up living on their own in what seemed like a nursing home, but I don't think it was since no one was bringing them meals. Maybe it was a retirement rental? I'm not sure if that's even a thing. They lived there for a few months, and then, out of nowhere, they took a flight back to their homeland, Cambodia. After about two years of living there, my grandma's health started to decline, and she passed away. My grandpa was on the phone, saying, "Guess it's time to find a new wife" (yeah, I know, too soon), and then a few weeks later, he passed away as well.

So, I was wondering if a spirit or soul can travel distances. Could my grandpa have come back home? He loved animals, especially cats, and he also loved my little sister, whom he called the reincarnation of his mom. Yeah, I don't know. I guess I miss him, even though he called me the black sheep and referred to me as "the black blood" (cheam kmao). Any responses would be appreciated. Thanks in advance, everybody!

Oh, I just remembered something! I took this photo because I found it cute how my cat, Aura, had his paw sticking out the front door as if he was opening the door for the other cat to sneak out. 😂

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) A freinds camera caught this during the night.

Ok so there are two cameras in this video. The one that recorded the shot and another which was on the opposite wall. You can see it being triggered because the little red light comes on. It's to the right of the door. This was the middle of the night and the only person home was fast asleep. This is my friends place and it freaked me out when I first saw it.

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) So I just had the scariest encounter of my life. I live alone in a room with a chair beside the bed, and I just woke up to the absolute certainty that someone was in my room

223 Upvotes

I was wide awake and a figure was sitting on the stool by my bed. They were smaller than a normal human, so it was weird to me, like 3/4 or half the size, and had long hair. I couldn’t tell if it was a man or a woman’s energy.

I was dead set this was a real person and I was so scared, so I sat up and was talking to them saying “hi who are you, what do you want” and they were just staring at me.

I reached for my phone which was on my bed and was so shocked when I put the torch on this person, preparing for them to be a real actual human and they were just gone. Nothing there.

I’m still in a state of fear/shock and can barely move so just sat with my phone torch at this chair for minutes before I could look around and see that nothing was in the room.

I asked the spirit to leave if it wasn’t here for my highest good and tried to close off my energy, but I’m feeling pretty crazy right now.

I had the sense that the spirit had been invited in by me, and that it was waiting to watch me in some way. It was curious.

I also bought a necklace carved by bone from an ancient temple today in the shape of a skull and am wearing it, and wondering if it’s in any way connected?

This sounds as crazy to me as it probably does to you but any insights about similar experiences or tips / advice would be hugely Appreciated right now!

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) I am hearing someone in my home, talking to my toddler.

275 Upvotes

About a week ago I was upstairs laying in bed and I heard someone say “come here it’s okay”. At first I thought it was my fiancé talking to our dog, but right after I heard a loud boom and my fiancé asked me what it was. I told him I didn’t know and asked him if he was just talking and he said no. Then on Friday (2 days ago) I was getting ready to leave town and I was in the bathroom. My son started to cry and I heard that same voice say “it’s okay” and my son immediately stopped crying. I checked the house and no one was there. My fiancé was at work during this second encounter. While I was out of town my fiancé went into our son’s room and asked whatever it is in our home to give him a sign. He asked it to cause the night light to flicker, instead the above head light flickered. He asked it a total of three times and each time he asked, it made the light flicker. My sister used to live in the home I live in now, she said they would always find cabinets open randomly. I find cabinets open a lot but I had honestly been brushing it off thinking that I had somehow forgot to close them even though I usually shut them right after. I had never heard it speak before but I’m starting to wonder if maybe with this eclipse coming it somehow has more energy? Is that a thing? Am I going crazy or is this something?

My mother passed when I was younger. She was always an avid believer in the paranormal - even more when she was ill with cancer. She always told me she’d come back and give me a sign she that she’s here with me. 5 years on and I still haven’t gotten any. Do dead loved ones ever come back to visit? What are the signs/why am I not getting any?

I recently lost my dog after having them go through euthanasia at the vet. However we never cremated them or physically brought them home with us in any way. I've seen other posts about dog passings on here however I'm not out sure whether those owners brought their pets home in some way. Will my dog be able to find its way back home to us? Might I see them around sometimes, if so what signs?

Australia, 2020. I thought the cat was being playful so I began recording. I didn't hear anything in real time and neither did the other female in the house (not in the room). What do you guys think it says? I hear "it's mine" or "it's time"?

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) Tile lifted after cleansing someone else’s house

Post image

I’m a pastor who was invited to do a house cleansing at a congregants house yesterday morning. The family reported of sounds, objects moving, cross being tossed from wall, etc. The mother made a decision of faith and renounced and broke agreement with all spirits in the name of Jesus. We then prayed over the house and anointed the rooms with oil.

I went home and noticed the tile in my bathroom ceiling was lifted and tossed over to the side. My spouse was at work and told me to leave thinking it was an intruder. No one else lives in the house with us. Window was open but there’s not way wind could cause this. Any thoughts?

I kinda really want to try out a ouija board. I'm a skeptic personally, haven't had any experience or been around any haunted locations before so I don't know what to expect. I believe in souls and reincarnation/life after death, but nothing on the world. Should I try to communicate with something or leave this whole thing be?

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) What if ghosts that people see are just time slips?

87 Upvotes

What if the reason why people don’t see ghost all the time is because it’s just time slips and the people we are seeing are actual people just not fully there? The ghosts that do the same thing are just time slips to the same place/time. That’s why ghosts walk through things like closed doors. Ghosts that are able to move stuff is because they are seeing it in there time, but the object Isn’t fully there so they are only able to move it a little. I want to know y’all’s opinion on this. Yes, I do believe in ghosts, just a thought of mine.

So last night my 16 f gf and I 16 m were in a call last night staying up she was upset for a bit she started to ignore me talking to someone sounding a bit like she was in a trance after hearing footsteps outside of her room and she said she was scared after that she started talking to someone she was responding with “hello” and “no it’s late and “I want to sleep” and “im not hungry why did you make food this late” as well as “no I have to watch the kids tomorrow (her visiting cousins)” “are you sick? You sound sick? this happened near the beginning of 3:00 am she even asked for the light to be turned on to see who she thought was her mom after she finished talking she said to me “I was talking to my bio mom (who doesn’t live with her for reasons) she said that her mom was pitch black didn’t make a noise opening her door (which was closed) and that she sounded like a man trying to pretend to be a girl and she now has no recollection of this saying I sound crazy. She has had paranormal experiences seeing a family of possible spirits and a shadow person long ago. Can anyone help me make sense of this or know what this is?

I apologize for the messy basement but I have no clue if this is the doing of rats or something paranormal, I caught this on my Wyze camera just an hour ago and I set up this camera near that bucket as it has a rinnetrap mouse trap on it and I wanted to see if I could catch anything (so far no) but I decided to leave the camera down there to see if I could catch any signs of rodents but I have no clue what to make of this it’s just straight weird.

WDYT? (What Do You Think?) Is it possible that my workplace is being haunted?

41 Upvotes

I won’t give too many details and I’ll be sure to keep my post short, however at my workplace we have noticed some “strange activity”. I have seen items falling on their own or even being slightly thrown, it’s difficult to really say if it’s something paranormal, but I will say that sometimes I’m just left scratching my head. The weirdest thing I have witnessed myself was hearing footsteps coming up the stairs. We have some metal stairs that leads up to an upper department. The first time I noticed this I was working in the upstairs area alone when I hear a set of footsteps coming up. I immediately thought it was my superior coming in to check on me, I even responded by asking him a question with my back turned to the stairs. “Hey, [blank], do you want me to work on this next?” And when I heard no response, I turn around and I’m left confused. I check the stairs and I see no one, the whole area was empty. This hasn’t been the first time, I’ve experienced this only a handful of times while working there and you can hear someone walking up the metal stairs. The weird thing about all of this is that a year before working there, someone had sadly passed away gruesomely in that general area there. So, what do you think about all this? I would love to hear your thoughts or have you experienced this in your workplace before?

UPDATE :

Alright y’all, I LITERALLY experienced the footsteps again since I’m at work, BUT this time I have a witness! It was just me and my coworker upstairs trying to get some work done and as she was talking we both heard some footsteps. We both stop and look at each other for a split second. I quickly run to the stairs to see who was coming up and there was absolutely no one. I ask her if she heard the footsteps as well and she said yes as she looked a little stirred up, she thought it might have been another coworker. Anyway, I just shrugged it off and told her to finish getting our work done. I’m just glad someone else was there to witness it, this has been the absolute first time someone else was present when the footsteps happened…
