About Me

My photo
Behind Every Cloud is a Kindred Spirit (BECKS)I lost my grandfather when I was 17. I had a VERY difficult time getting over it. How could I still communicate with him? I loved him so much I didn't think I could live without him. I read everything I could get my hands on to do with the "afterlife" and that started it all...the love of Ghost Hunting and the Paranormal. I have been researching the paranormal for over 37 years!! It is my way of staying in touch with my grandfather. Being a Ghost Hunter is not always as exciting as it seems on TV. Many nights I have sat in the dark and not a thing happened. BUT it is those times you DO get that one voice, that one explainable picture or have an experience that sends chills down your back that makes it sooo worth it all!!! My purpose of this blog is not to make people believe in ghosts but maybe to open their minds just a little bit... I LOVE this crazy thing called Ghost Hunting. It is as much a part of me as breathing. I am just a girl that refuses to accept we can't still contact our loved ones after they die. My grandfather won't let me.

SIGNS THAT YOU MAY HAVE A DEMONIC ENTITY IN YOUR HOME




Now, there are lots of different reasons you could have bad things start to happen to you in your home or to people around you. Let's try and rule out what really may be cause for a greater concern.

Generally, before repression, oppression, and/or possession occurs, a demonic entity will infest a location.  There are specific signs of a demonic infestation or haunting, and many of them mimic an intelligent haunting of a spirit that was once in human form.  This is why it's sometimes so difficult, even for seasoned paranormal investigators, to distinguish between a ghost or spirit and a demon. 

First, there are CHANGES IN YOUR HOME.  This is one of the signs of a traditional or intelligent haunting that could also be a demonic haunting.  A person might have electrical or battery-operated appliances or gadget that begin to operate on their own.  For example, the lights may turn on and off, the TV blares it when was turned off, blender or maybe even the water comes on by itself.

All of the sudden, you may see a plate or a dish fly across the room with no explanation.  This can be extremely frightening!  You may also notice things aren't in the same place you left them.  Doors open and close on their own. 

You may experience all of these things.  If you are trying to figure out what is going on.....it is VERY important to start writing them down.  Journal all the activity.  It will help if you have to call in help.

Next, NOISES.  Strange sounds, like dragging, banging, raps or things falling and breaking but when you go to check their is nothing out of place.

You may even hear your name being called out, but BE CAREFUL here!!!  Demons will often mimic a deceased loved one in order to gain your trust and be more accepting of its presence.  But it is also, important to look at all the paranormal activity in the location as well as how the behavior of the living people in the home may have changed since the activity started.

SMELLS.  That's right! Smells.  Smells play a huge part in hauntings  and demonic infestation.  Although you may smells that you recognize like cigar or cigarette smoke, perfume, in a demonic presence, you will smell things you haven't smelt before and they are usually NOT pleasant.  A smell like sulfur or "something rotting" may be noticed.

CHANGES IN THE AIR.  You know....the air seems "heavy" or "oppressive".  It just seems harder to breath...like something heavy is on your chest.  If you start to feel this way, usually leaving the location should help.

EMOTIONAL CHANGES.  People who have come into direct contact with a demon called the experience changes in their moods and emotions.  Demons feed off negative energy, so the changes in someones moods that is normally a "happy" person could be something more than "just having a bad day".  But let me say....that when someone is in a "bad mood" I think it would be BEST NOT TO SAY....your just possessed by a demon!!!!!  LOL  Now, you could REALLY stir things up.

PHYSICAL COMPLICATIONS.  A person who resides in a home where a demonic entity is present could experience a wide variety of physical symptoms or illnesses that cannot be linked to a specific ailment.  But please always, consult your dr. if you are not feeling well.

Sometimes, people may experience bruises, headaches, vomiting and other types of physiological conditions for which the medical profession is not able to find  a logical explanation.  Sleep issues, such as nightmares maybe a way for the demon to wear a person down physically and emotionally to make their victim more vulnerable to their influence and make their prey easier to control.

PHYSICAL HARM.  Demonic entities can be very violent in nature and won't hesitate to attack.  Besides the scratching and bruising that can take place, victims of a demon have reported having their hair pulled, or having been pushed or pulled to the point that they have fallen and become injured, sometimes seriously, specially if a flight of stairs is involved.

CHANGES IN ANIMAL BEHAVIOR.  One of the main signs of a demonic entity is when your pets, especially a cat or a dog, start to display behavior that is erratic or uncharacteristic.  Now, don't confuse this with a "visit from a loved one" that your pets may see that you don't.  They may wage their tails or bark at an empty space, but with a demons presence it is more like growling, backing up, not wagging their tag, and even refusing to enter a particular room.

BECOMING WITHDRAWN.  Generally a demon will target one person in the home as their victim.  This person may start to withdraw and lose interest in activities.  They will become withdrawn from social events and even school or work.

Withdrawing from family and friends is exactly what the demon wants them to do.  That way, the demon can isolate their victim to gain control over them. 

If you suspect you or one of your family members are experiencing a demonic infestation, you should seek help from a paranormal professional or a member of clergy who has experience dealing with demonic entities.

I want to suggest a REALLY GREAT book that goes into more detail about encountering negative spirits, it's called Something Wicked-A Ghost Hunters Explores  Negative Spirits. By Debi Chestnut.
It is really easy to read and understand.

THE HAUNTED CONGRESS HOTEL IN CHICAGO-SEE WHAT I FOUND-REPOST

The beautiful Ball Room

If you have not stayed at the Congress Hotel in Chicago....you should!!!  It is reportedly the most haunted hotel in the city.  I was lucky enough to get a room at this hotel to do an investigation as a Christmas Present from my boyfriend and I loved every minute of it!!!  I was also lucky enough to have one of my FAVORITE paranormal groups White Dog Paranormal to meet me there.  We had a great time!

Ok....I know, you guys don't care about all that....you just want to know if we saw any GHOSTS!!!
First here is a little bit about this wonderful place.  It was built to help house visitors of the World Fair in 1893.  It was also owned at one point by the one and only Al Capone.  Supposedly the most haunted floors are the 4th and the 12th(I stayed on the 12th).  Some of the spirits roaming this place is none other than Al himself along with a mother and two sons, whom supposedly was waiting for the arrival of her husband and when she found out he wasn't coming, she through her two boys over the 12th floor balcony and then jumped herself.  Then there's Peg Leg Johnny, a hobo that was murdered in the hotel.  And the MOST HAUNTED ROOM OF ALL #441.  YES, I did request to stay in that room but was told the whole 4th floor was closed!  Of course, we had to go check it out ourselves and found that the 4th floor was completely dark!  Did we leave......of course not!!!  We just sat down in the floor, in the dark and started conducting an EVP Session.

When you start asking questions about the spirits that haunt the hotel you will find out quickly that some of the people DON'T want to talk about it, but a couple of the bell hops were willing to share their stories.  We were lucky enough to meet Johnny the late night security guard who has worked at the Congress for about 18 years.  At first, he wasn't willing to talk, but he couldn't resist my Texas accent!!! LOL  He eventually warmed up to us and took us on a tour all around the hotel and to places we normally wouldn't have access to.  THANK YOU JOHNNY!!!!  He told us story after story of paranormal activity.  Even as recent as the week before we were there, of people leaving their rooms claiming things were moving, they were touched, etc.

After we left Johnny, we investigated on our own.  Yep...you guessed it, we went places not many people could or WOULD not go.  We had a lot of activity in a little stairwell we found behind an unmarked door.  Be sure and watch the video I am posting of that session.   You DON'T want to miss it!!!

DEMONS-ARE THEY REAL???

Many times people don't know if they are dealing with something that is truly Demonic or maybe just a "cranky" spirit. When you are dealing with something TRULY EVIL OR DEMONIC things like possession can happen or things suddenly start to be dark, negative and there rarely seems to be a "good day" when your home is haunted by something bad!  The BEST thing you can do is be positive!!!  Check out the article below about staying positive.

And listen....you guys stay turned!!!  We re-visited the very haunted YORKTOWN MEMORIAL HOSPITAL and it did not disappoint!!!!  Can't wait to share the evidence with you...:)

Are Demons Actually Real?
  
In our culture, as children we have been taught that demons, ghosts, and imaginary friends, are just that - imaginary. They are like Santa and the Easter Bunny... fake. And any kid who sees them frequently is told they need to be realistic, to stop playing games, and that they are being weird or mentally ill.
But are all these children really perceiving "imaginary" beings? Or are they real?
Children are, by and large, far more naturally psychically sensitive than are adults. This is because social programming has not yet crushed their psychic abilities.
In a way, to avoid being weird and by attempting to fit in, children 'wish away' their psychic abilities. This demonstrates the power of intention and affirmations, and how they can affect the development, or suppression, of psychic abilities.
While materialistic adults generally appreciate self-defense and the ability to protect one's own family and property, they usually have absolutely no concept of subtle dimensions.
They do not know anything about the dangers of negative spirit entities.
In today's modern world, it's just as bad. Evil spirits are never discussed in public and are rarely even written about.
If there are real spiritual problems, then someone has to deal with them eventually. Like termites, they won't just go away if you ignore them. Or even if you yell at them.
Here are some do's and don'ts about negative entities:
You won't get far as a spiritual person if you don't accept the reality of the astral planes, and subtle energies.

Acknowledge The Existence Of Astral Beings

You won't get very far as a psychic or spiritual practitioner if you don't accept the reality of the "other side" and the existence of other dimensions. In order to make progress you need to open up to the existence of energies of all polarities.
Just as there are angels, there are demons. Just as there are good spirits, there are bad spirits. Everything has its opposite number.
And just like Earth, which is a planet on the physical plane, other dimensions have creatures and beings. Some are beautiful and helpful, and some are ugly and dangerous.
By knowing this, you can TAKE PRECAUTIONS against them, and give yourself some peace of mind.

Protect Yourself From These Harmful Beings

All the worlds and dimensions of existence are not necessarily full of "love and light" as the NewAge fluffs will tell you. It's simply not true.
There are some legitimate threats to your safety and wellbeing present on subtle dimensional levels close to the Earth plane.
Most people do not have many recognizable problems with the other side, but when they do...what can they do about it? As said, most people disbelieve in such things. And there is very little realistic 'help' available in this arena today.
But you must know that as you live your life here in the physical, there are also negative forces and beings that prey off fear, anxiety, and other negative types of energy.

Don't Give Permission For Possession

A little-known fact is that for actual possession to occur, the victim needs to give permission on some level to the demon to enter and influence their body and mind.
A possession is the action of a negative entity taking some degree of control over a person's mind and physical body from the inside.

Do Keep Your Mind, Body, And Space Clean

The interior of your house, bedroom, and personal space could be a major attraction to a negative entity, or it could be a major turnoff. For example, if you keep a happy, clean, uplifting environment, with fresh flowers, fresh clothes and sunshine, then your space will be filled with positive spirits and energies. There is no chance that a toxic negative entity will be attracted to your space.
On the other hand, if your space is dark, dank, dirty, and depressing, then negative entities will LOVE it.

Being a positive and happy upbeat person - even though it may not always be easy - is the most powerful NATURAL way to defend yourself and ward off negative entities.
If you focus on negative energies in a fearful way, you will feed them. This will make matters worse, because here you are actually empowering negative entities that might be around you. This will allow them to become more active and troublesome.
The reverse applies. Ignore them, refuse to fear, and keep your energy integrity, and you will not feed them. You will starve them. And then things will get better.

A popular saying today is 'What you resist, persists' (Carl Jung). This maxim has been taken way out of context today...when applied to negative entities and energies. This is used today as a 'big' excuse not to do anything, or to even talk about it, when something goes spiritually wrong.
Blindly following this maxim is like ignoring termites in your house because you are afraid they'll get angry with you. But if you ignore termites, you house will fall down around your ears. Resisting termites and taking sensible actions...like calling in pest control and doing repairs, are just common sense!
