I've recently been looking up these things for inspiration..(Don't ask) But, honestly, some of the things I've come across are really really paranormal and scary. Yet, they're quite believable. I'm not superstitious, and I rarely believe in these things, but some of the things I found are believable. And they have nothing to do with ghosts, ghouls, demons etc. They have somewhat of a story to them, and there is no magic or superhuman ability involved. They're more mystery based, and are something you would think paranormal detectives would look into For example: The Case Of the Crying Boy: From around 1985 onwards, a series of mysterious house fires were brought to the attention of the general public, following the discovery that in each case, the buildings and all their contents were completely destroyed apart from a painting - the "Crying Boy", which remained unscathed. In the years that followed, some 40-50 cases were recorded in which a house fire had destroyed everything except for the picture. It became known as the "Curse of the Crying Boy", and even made headline news at one point. The picture itself was a portrait painted by a Spanish artist of an orphan. It is said that his studio burnt to the ground, and the boy was later killed in a car crash. The picture is one of the first to be mass produced in the UK, there are several thousand of them in circulation, but the curse still appears to apply to all the copies. It is said that the curse will only effect someone if the owner of the painting becomes aware of it. Some psychics have claimed that the painting is Haunted by the spirit of the boy it depicts. Oh, and there's probably threads about similar things. So don't bash this. So tell me what you think, do you guys know of other stories like this?
This happened to me-It doesnt sound that scary but I was like-what-Ten I lay in bed at night-Too warm to sleep-I look up at my wardrope-My toy castle and soldier are facing in my direction-I get bored and start to count the bumps on the celing-After 153 bumps I look back over to the soldior-Its airbourne-Floating,Towards me,And falls at my feet as if layed there and of cource I gasp and jump down the stairs cryinh and screaming. 3 years later I discover that the area im living in is built on top of an old Geogeon asylum for the insane and mentally challenged-Many pictures taken in my house have orbs-Silver Smoke and on one occasion a cruel looking man with a handlebar mustache. As I said-It doesn't sound really scary but try living here xD
