The Clapper is a device that is activated by sound sensory, and will turn on or off any two applianceshttp://www.rkdm.com/theclapper/clapper-pic.jpg plugged into.
It makes sense that IF ghosts are real and somehow still connected to the place of their discontented death that old battlefields would be where to find them.Quote:

I've never see anything but one time, about 6 years later when I was 25 years old, was working in my wood shop in the basement late at night. I heard loud footsteps walk through the room above me. Thought nothing of it.. thought it was mom up for some reason. Then I went to bed and asked her what she was doing up. she said she hadn't been up in over an hour. Then, a couple months later I was watchng TV and heard soemthing come from the kitchen.... so vivid I was scared to move. A grown man... frozen stiff in fear. finally got up to look.. nothing there.
It's probably trivial and nothing more than my imagination, but sometimes when I am out walking in the woods I hear footsteps that sound as if they are walking right beside me or just behind me. I always turn to look and see no one there. Everytime it happens I always remember how my mom and I used to take her dogs on these long walks through the woods; I always wonder if it's somehow her way of letting me know she is still with me in some capacity and that she still remembers the time we spent together. I hope it is, but it's probably just my imagination. The funny thing is, my Grandma, who also used to go for these walks with my mom on an almost daily basis, experiences exactly the same thing when she is out walking. When my Grandma and I are out walking together, which we do several times a week, we've both turned around at almost precisely the same time because we're hearing those same footsteps.
We had something like that several years back. When one of our neighbor died (poor guy was killed by the ex-boyfriend of a girl he was wooing), we heard footsteps outside our house several times for few nights. Our surroundings had just been laden with small gravels from nearby shores so the footsteps sounded very clear - you know what it sounds like when you walk on gravels, it sounded just like that.Quote:

Their soothing chirps sort of cheered us up during those gloomy rainy days. What was strange was we'd never seen a hummingbird before and didn't even know there was hummingbirds here in the Philippines. It was as if my dad was comforting us, especially my mom, and telling us everything was all right.
Astral travelling or bilocating people could be classed as ghosts too.They can be seen by some people as well ;often mistaken for angels, ghosts or others.
It's strange you mentioned hummingbirds...Quote:

One of the last gifts my mom ever gave to my grandma was a hummingbird feeder. My grandma can't bear to put it up though, she says whenever she sees a hummingbird she thinks of my mom. However, there have been a few occasions when I am really down and thinking about my mom that I have noticed hummingbirds around me. At one point I was sitting on a hill in the park near my house, crying (might as well be honest), and I noticed a hummingbird a few feet away from me. As soon as I saw it, it launched itself into the air and started doing loops - it would fly up about 20 ft. in the air, dive downwards, and do these giant loops over and over again. It was such a rediculous sight that eventually I started laughing and even cheered up a little bit.
Again, I'm sure it's nothing but a coincidence, but it is interesting how people experience similiar things under these circumstances...
Ya, strange. Actually, I mentioned about the hummingbirds because I wanted to know if anyone else had the same kind of experience. I wasn't expecting that it would be you coz that would've been too much of a coincidence, but strange things do happen, I guess. I've heard about moths or butterflies being messengers for dead people but I've never heard about hummingbirds being one too so I just wanted to confirm it. All I can say now is that if we can find just one more person who has that kind of experience with hummingbirds, maybe there are ghosts afterall. I forgot to mention but what's more strange about these hummingbirds is that they came again on about two more ocassions - both on death anniversaries of my dad! That's why I wanted to share this story - I wanted to know if anyone else had that sort of experience, just to confirm. Now I'm much more convinced.Quote:

During the dialogue, you'll hear from Edward who claims to speak to the spirit about supposedly some secrets only the spirit and his/her relative guests are supposed to know. You'll see their utter amazement at the messages Edward is supposed to covey to them, where sometimes the guests get really emotional and go into tears...
I've always watched that show with amazement, while thinking if it was real or if they were putting me on. I could be naive but I didn't see any reason to doubt him as he, and the program itself, looked credible. But again I could be a naive fool. One time, they even invited a celebrity guest, though I forgot who she was, who went through more or less the same process - her confirming that the spirit is that of one of her family member and that what the spirit says is true on most part... Well anyway, no matter what, the issue here is whether he is real or fake and whether the picked guests from the audience were planted or not, though again, innocent me didn't find any reason to doubt. But rather than listen to my lousy discription of the program, you should try to get the video of the program and see for yourself. I myself was always totally amazed. But again I might be a bit naive. In the meantime, you can try to find some of his shows on the youtube, just type 'john edward cross over' on the youtube search bar and maybe you can find some . But one warning though, try to avoid those info's trying to expose him or destroy his credibility, especially anything from skeptic.com at least until you've watched all the episodes because I don't want you to be clouded with doubt when you watch the show- there are always skeptics in any field and you just can't avoid that; it's just part of life. And if you've watched all the episodes, then, and only then, you should read those skeptics stuffs if you must, though I wouldn't encourage you to because anyone can find faults about anything if he wants. I'd rather you decide for yourself than let others try to convince you otherwise.
Here's one sample info of the show:

I've seen him before and honestly I am very skeptical about mediums and things like that. There is one medium in Canada who does some of his readings over the phone, I would be more inclined to believe someone who did it without seeing me and being able to read my body-language etc.Quote:

Yeah exactly, he's more than likely very skilled at cold reading, they did this on an episode of southpark. People also tend to believe things that they want to be real. Like knowing your parents are happy and still around, giving you comfort that there is an afterlife.
I like to watch Physic detectives ,the real life docu ones.
One lady led the cops right to a door and said "he goes through this door I've seen him."
Sure enough out of a whole large city ,that was the murderers place.
Another one found a body in about a 20 sq mile of bush and scrub ,right down to the surrounds and what color he was wearing.Turned out he had a heart attack and fell off a pathway .SHe picked that he was dead already and that it wasnt a homocide.
