California

 

 

 

What I was TRYING to do was snap pictures of some Jessie Willcox Smith prints that I had just framed and put up on the wall in the dining room. 1, 2, 3. The room is directly off from the patio and was fully lit with sunlight. What I got was an entity swooping down. It's times like these I look at photos I've taken and wished that I knew what was going to come out on film because I would have taken more. This is, one more time, an example of how spirit energy can block out the background. 

                     

These were taken inside an  old apartment. The manager told me a couple lived there for thirty years until the man died, adding that he died in a hospital. Uh huh. It was okay here though. Kitchen cupboard and hallway doors would open by themselves all the time. Lights going off and on, stuff like that.

 

Every time I went into my storage place I could feel something watching me. I could envision people sitting in one of these things smoking crack. It just had a creepy feel to it. The door kept closing on me, the lights never worked right and I got dizzy all the time. One day I took my camera with me and took a picture of the hall way where my unit was located.

 

 

 

My husband managed a small inn out in the desert for awhile. We lived on site in a large two bedroom apartment that adjoined the lobby. We've have stories of that place and theories of what really went on there. This is a picture of the bathroom. Yes, another bathroom picture. Ever get the feeling when you're in the shower that someone is watching you? Well, you're probably right.

Now, when I saw this picture I was wondering what the heck was on the floor. Lying sideways. See it? Look under the doorknob, on the side of the tub and on the floor.

 

So... I turned the photo sideways and blew it up a little.

 What do you think?

I see two partial faces, do you? Or more. The picture on the bathtub looks to me like a female, just the upper portion of her face and her right eye. She has dark hair and eyebrows and has a soft look on her face. If the person on the floor was looking at you, it would be his left eye looking at you. The dude on the floor though, doesn't even look human. This place was weird but I liked it. I keep looking at this picture and see all kinds of different faces. You know, one of the things my husband and I think this place was, is an abortion clinic. This wasn't a regular apartment. Ah...  but the desert has many secrets.

 

More about the inn...

It was around 2am, one night when I became cold while sleeping and woke up. I had to sit up and reach over to the foot of the bed to get the covers. What was interesting to me is that at the same time my husband was looking for the covers in his sleep, searching around with his hand. You know how it's funny watching people do stuff in their sleep? While I amused myself watching him I heard a little kid's voice. He was over in the corner of the room. He said something I couldn't understand, then said, "Wooo, wooo", imitating a train whistle then giggled. Okay, this isn't funny anymore! I tried to wake up my husband. The idea of a little kid ghost really bothered me, although it wasn't the first time I've run into one. While I calmly rousted my husband, even though I wanted to beat on him, the room went ice cold. ICE cold. Nothing else happened that night, but we got up, watched TV and had lemon meringue pie just in case.

On another night I was in the middle room, a room that I never considered part of the apartment. I called it the "common room". It had four doors and a huge entrance that opened into the kitchen. Three of the walls had doors. One door led into the lobby and the one directly across from it led into a hallway to the rest of the apartment. (The other two were to the maid's supply room and to the patio/pool area.) One wall had no doors. If you faced that wall, our extra bedroom was on the other side of it. 

My husband was working in the lobby and walked in to ask me if I'd please check the extra bedroom. He told me that he could hear an alarm going off. I walked into the room, nothing. It was empty. No furniture at all, just a ceiling light fixture that didn't have a bulb. I walked back through the middle room where I couldn't hear anything but as soon as I entered the lobby I could hear the alarm going off! It sounded like an older model clock radio alarm. Now, where we lived was isolated. It's not like we had neighbors close by, so it couldn't just be the next-door-neighbors. I shrugged it off and walked back into the middle room and headed to our bedroom. I had to walk down the hall into yet another room to get to it. I'm not sure what this room was supposed to be, maybe the living room this place was truly strange.

Anyway, as soon as I walked into this room I heard a woman's voice begin talking. It wasn't English and it was loud! She didn't begin talking until I walked in, 'cause I've walked into rooms where people were already talking. She was over by the window, directly across the room from me. I froze. I hadn't turned on any lights. I didn't want to know if I could see anything. She was adamant about what she was saying. I just turned around and bailed back into the middle room. The same time I entered the middle room, my husband walked in from the lobby. Freaked. He began telling me that he had just heard a woman's voice talking from the extra room, but it also sounded like it was next to him. She didn't speak English either. I told him what I had heard and where I had been. We tried to pinpoint it, but there was no way. The voice although audible, seemed to float in the air. He asked me why I wasn't as freaked as he was and my answer was that I thought it was a female guest just right outside the window except it sounded like it was inside the room. He looked at me incredulously. "Honey, you're the only woman within a mile from here in any direction." Yeah, he was right, I'd give it maybe two miles or more. We only had one guest staying there at that time, a male and he wasn't there that night. So I ended up watching TV out in the lobby until my husband was done with his work.

Sometimes you just gotta give 'em their space.

 

I took these two photos just within this past month (11/05). We were driving on the freeway. My window was rolled down so it's not a reflection. Whatever it is, extends past the hill top into the sky. 

The next photo below shows not just the tips of fingers, but an entire hand.

 

I just like this pic.
