Random Thoughts: Ghostly Apparitions and Encounters

Photo Credits
In this modern world of high technology and social media era, many people would not believe or skeptical of such things as ghost, malevolent spirits and other supernatural phenomenon because of innovations that have scientific basis for such events. Even if I am in the scientific field, I do believe in such things even if my mind play tricks on me as I perceive or conceptualize it inside my head based on psychological thinking on what to expect. Fear often triggers this thought of being scared especially when things go bump in the night. 

First Encounter:  I did have encounters of ghostly apparition when I was a young boy. At the age of 11, I was able to see a white figure standing at the fourth floor of the school building at night time. We were practicing our presentation for our boy scout / young scout meeting with our scout master and other younger scouts (cub scouts) in the open field bringing along our flash lights with us. The lady appeared out of nowhere. One of my scout mates saw at it as he turned on its flash light on the white figure a few meters away and it was a white lady. We were so scared at that time and we got in a hurry leaving our notes or songbook when we ran for our lives. We told our scout master about it and mention there is a legend that it was a nun who died a few decades ago that hunts the hallway of this private catholic school.


Second Encounter: This happened in my sophomore in college. We were dismissed early and about to go down from the building through the elevator. However, the elevator was taking long to go up and we  (me and my classmates) decided to go down the stairs. On our journey going down, me and another classmate have somehow seen a shadow or a dark figure going inside a classroom. I told him to wait for me to check. I told him I seen it in the corner of my eye. He also sensed something not normal in that particular room when I decided to open the light and we saw nothing. I told this story a couple of times, to some friends classmates and they won't believe until one of our professor also encountered that dark entity a couple of years ago when he was walking down the stairs on that same room with that eerie presence as well.

Third Encounter: The presence of a unknown entity appearing as old man in barong was scary thought we encountered in my college years. This incident happened over a decade ago. We were assigned to rotate in a healthcare facility in this city. Once in a while there were request of change of duty from some of our colleagues in our internship when one of them requested to have a swap duty. We knew for a fact our colleague has a third eye. Her senses are highly aware at times when something will happen. On one occasion, I was about to enter the lounge when she grabbed my hand away from the lounge and mentioned a presence of an old man wearing a barong. I was a bit apprehensive but not totally scared when I heard bags being dropped at the flat table. Another incident happened as well when the old typewriter went typing on its own without a human hand operating it. We were totally  freaked out of that incident.

Fourth Encounter: The young kid, I never felt the existence of the kid in the workplace up until I got assigned to do some paper works one time. Some of my office colleague would tease that "THE KID" does exist in that particular area of the building. I was unassuming of it until I did experience his/her naughty and playful moments when things on my table were misplaced thinking I forgot it or some sort that item is just beside me when I left it.

In Christian belief, man has a soul and if he/she dies it will eventually leave the mortal body to the higher plane of life (in Heaven). Their physical form have died of a tragic or accidental death and cannot accept the fact they died already and have some unfinished business to do on earth that why they roam around as restless spirits.

I do not have a third eye but my other Extrasensory perception (ESP) is active.
