Ever Tasted A Ghost ?

My wife and I discovered our land, and an old mobile home next door was haunted, in 2006. To begin with we were just taking photos and recording evps in the yard, but we began to notice that the activity seemed to be centered around the old mobile home. We set up a surveillance system in it, and began recording. A face that appeared to be Native American, popped up from nowhere on the first night. It stayed for about 15 minutes and vanished. I was recording to a dvd recorder, and on the second night I forgot my remote control, so I couldn't change the recorder settings. As luck would have it, the settings were to record for 30 minutes only. The face appeared in the same place again, but was there only a minute, before the recorder stopped. The spirit of the Indian must have noticed this, and he was angered. We walked around the yard later that night taking photos, and recording evps. I was following my wife, steadily taking pictures. A rolling brown, granular type mist appeared, and moved between my wife and I. Her back was to it, so she never saw it. I tried to take a picture of the visible brown mist, but it looked like hundreds of orbs. It came toward me and hit me in the chest, it wasn't strong enough to knock me down, but I could feel it's force. The strange part about it, a little got in my mouth, and it had a strong acidic taste. When we went back inside, I tried washing my mouth out, but the taste remained. I brushed my teeth and used mouth wash, but the taste was still there. The taste remained for hours, but finally weakened down. I still have no idea if it might have harmed me, but I'm still here ! It was scary, because the taste remained so long. Anyone else ever tasted a ghost ?

You mentioned a taste from the mist...honestly it makes me wonder right off the bat if there may be an old well, either a water or gas well in the vicinity. Old water wells would create gasses that could cause hallucinatory activity in the brain, and the same would go for natural gas deposits.

Why would you both see the face though? The human mind is designed to matrix and attempt to make sense of things. Pariedolia is a very real and very common phenomenon, up to 80% of people will pick out faces which just arent there when looking at smoke, mists or cloud banks.

I would suggest testing the soil, and getting hold of a geolocical survey before running with the ghost theory. You may find some natural explanations for what you have experienced.

There's no gas line, and I wasn't hallucinating. It continuously rolled like a wheel, and came from the side, until it was between us. Then it came straight at me. The reason it probably looked like orbs, was that it was so close. I have a photo of a similar looking mist that's on my wife's back, but I was far enough away, so it looked like a grainy mist. The face is on video, with nothing but IR light in the trailer. I'm well aware of pareidolia, but with it, don't you pick faces out of random textures and colors ? This was on a white refrigerator door, there were no textures or mingled colors. The chin even comes down onto a cardboard box. You can see a dark streak that comes across his cheek, that I assumed was warpaint. He has a severe hooked type nose, that looks very Indian. I've lived on this land for over 50 years, and I know it like the back of my hand, I put in every water line, and septic tank with drain fields. If this was all I had, I would question it too, but this is the tip of an iceberg. We investigated this area almost every night for over two years, and I am positive it is haunted. There's not a doubt in my mind. At first, I refused to believe any of it, but with all we've seen, heard, and experienced, I no longer doubt any of it. The first photos we got were mists in cold weather, but I'm not talking about simple blobs of mist, these were very defined in shape, and filled with detail. I still didn't believe in them, until it became spring, then summer, and we were still getting them. I even have mist trails in the daytime, taken from our window. I have an orb so dim in one photo it could barely be seen, in the next photo, it is brighter than any orb I've seen. It was so bright, it's confusing to understand, because it casts no type of beam or illumination. I have been touched in the broad daylight. I have heard voices directly in my ear. I have heard a wind chime directly over my head, when there were no wind chimes for hundreds of yards. Oh, don't let me forget the evps. I have several hundred all from one small area. I have been to some very active locations, and gotten great evidence, but nothing compares to my yard.

Natural gas wells don't require lines. They can also be quite dangerous. Whatever the case, think what you wish...but know my suggestions are out of concern for your health. Prolonged exposure can cause serious health issues and even death.

Maybe your experience was completely paranormal, but if you haven't looked for the rational, reasonable or explainable first you will have a hard time convincing me of it.

Everyone here knows me, I am a 100% believer in the paranormal and the supernatural but I also know how important it is to do your research and appropriate investigation too. Your life may depend on it.

You mentioned a septic tank...you installed it. Are you aware of the effects of methane on the human body and brain funtions? Read here;
http://www.ehow.com/list_5919157_effects...e-gas.html as any gas which depletes oxygen is proven to cause hallucinatory effects. High altitude climbers often experience a 'doppelganger' effect and see a living double of themselves. They claim the experience to have been quite realistic. I am sure it was, however that doesn't mean what they experienced wasn't caused by lack of oxygen.

As far as matrixing, no I am not one who has never been able to pick out random faces. My mind seems to be wired much differently for some reason and pareidolia just isn't something I experience. I can't find Waldo either. Of hundreds (maybe a thousand or more) paranormal photos I have looked at I don't see what others claim to see.

You should definately look into the gas thing if possible, you never know...Like Lady Kamae said it is very important for you to do your 'skeptical' research before-hand, because your life may depend on it.

From what you've said, parasearcher, it does sound like the past 2 years you and your wife have experienced a lot of activity, whether paranormal or not. Have you done any research on the history of your land? It sounds, to me, that you may have haunted land, I'm just throwing that out there though, I'm not a certified specialist of the paranormal or anything. There could be a possibility that you have large amounts of limestone and quartz deposits on your land as well, limestone and quartz are known to 'record memories'...

I think you should start doing a little research into the History of your land, and have someone check out the gas. Keep us posted!

interesting... everybodies point of view makes sense...

but living on a land over 50 years wouldn't he already no the land enough to rule out natural causes? I would have to think about if it is paranormal.

[Haunted Lady]

Fifty years of exposure may be what it takes to cause servere effects on a person. You can't rule out the possibility unless you do the research. That's if a person is really looking for the truth though...

[LMC]

Oh I see... thank you Lady K

[parasearcher]

Wow. if a person is looking for the truth ? Look, I know there is no gas line, there are no limestone or quartz deposits. I know the history of the land for around a hundred years. There was nothing on that area, during this time. There was one old house in front of it, but it wasn't put there until about 60 years ago. It was a wooded area, but it wasn't far from the town livery stable. There were probably plenty of riders coming through this area, and may have camped from time to time ? I dug all through this piece of property with a backhoe, when I put in a double septic tank and lines.This isn't in town, so there are no gas lines. One runs into town , but it's on the south side, and I'm on the north. My brother owns the land where the livery stable was, and it's about 1/4 mile. From the time the town was established, the area was wooded. I'm not sure who it belonged to then, but it was probably part of the Coker land. He's one of the founders, and had a large tract from the Welsh Neck section. There was never anything here. It could have begun with the old mobile home ? I've traced it back to the original owner, in the next county. I found nothing odd about it's history. The spirit came from somewhere, but I have no idea where ? My niece stayed in the mobile home for a while, and she admitted using a Ouija board, but what's that mean ?

Just my two cents worth i would do a search on any possible plant or fungus it may be.Or maybe even it could be a type of plant pod that has decayed. But there is always the possibility of a paranormal event. If i were you i would follow this up and try to find out whats going on.
