Thanks - Ordsall Hall Help Save Ordsall Another Featured Article from Spiritual Circles ¤¨¨¤ xx·....·.¸.»OUIJA¤¨¨¤ xx·....·.¸.» It can't be denied that there is a certain air of mystery and a sense of excitement mixed with the fear of the unknown when Ouiji Boards are mentioned.It is well known that Ouija Boards have been used for hundreds of years as a way of communicating with relatives or unknown spirits on the other side. Most people have at some time in their lives dabbled with one of these boards, usually a bunch of friends getting together at the suggestion of using one for a bit of fun. I can tell you from my own experiences that it isn't something to be taken lightly as they can be very dangerous in inexperienced hands, infact the general concensus with most people nowadays is to just stay well clear of them as users can traumatise themselves quite badly.Ouija Boards are a decorative wooden board or flat sheet with alphabet letters at the top & bottom and numbers from 0-9 along the bottom and the words Yes/No/Goodbye. The way it works is for people to sit around a table, and place their finger onto either a downturned glass or a wooden marker and to concentrate and ask questions. However, only trained mediums know the right way to conduct a session and also how to close a session safely so don't try this yourselves! It has been said that the type of spirits who make contact through Ouiji Board come from one of the astral planes, the lower plane which in general terms means that they are not good spirits. They are the type of spirits who maybe didn't have their life end in a good way either through suicide, murder or perhaps they died suddenly and were not ready to leave. When novices use the Ouiji board these types of spirits are often looking for a way in, so the best advice in all cases is just to not use Ouiji Boards or conduct seances unless you are in the prescence of experienced, trained mediums/spiritualists who know what they are doing. A group of friends and I used one when we were teenagers one night and it started off ok, the glass was whizzing around the table and every question we asked, simple ones, like people's favourite colours, names of friends etc etc and then when we tried to ask for a name of who we were contacting it got pretty hairy. The main thing that scared me was the force of how the glass was flying around, it wasn't being pushed down by fingers, it was skimming the surface really quickly and the questions being answered correctly that only the person it pertained to knew and when we asked if we could leave the session it kept saying "no" which wasn't pleasant. Another time (yes foolishly) I got talked into participating in another one but i had enough sense to know i didnt want it to be done where i lived. We ended up doing it in an old listed bus shelter which was in front of a graveyard and church. Something seemed to come through straight away. We used bits of paper cut out with the letters and numbers on. It wasn't a windy night and the shelter was rounded and was like a windshield anyway. We started getting names through and we all scared each other, I can't remember what question got asked but i can remember when it did it caused a big gust of wind came from absolutely nowhere, all the leaves raced around the shelter and all the letters and numbers were blown into the air in a split second, we all legged it and that scared me so much I never dabbled again. I think deep down you know when something is not right and when you are treading in paths you really shouldn't be going down. There was a story going around at school (many years ago!!) of a family that did a board session and the spirit they had contacted wouldn't let them leave the table and when they did despite being told not to, knives started flying around the kitchen and subsequent events happened to some of the people who had taken part for a while afterwards.Have you had any experiences of using an Ouiji Board? What are your views? Please share them with the group. The following are Videos (courtesy of YourTube) some seem to be real, others could be fake, others quite spooky - interesting viewing nonetheless!

Spiritual Circles Forum Board Another Featured Article from Spiritual Circles ¤¨¨¤ xx·....·.¸.»TYPES OF HAUNTINGS¤¨¨¤ xx·....·.¸.»There are many many types of ghosts, entities and types of hauntings that take place in numerous places all over the world.Whether its an old house or mansion, a theatre, public house or graveyard it happens in every type of place you can imagine. ----------------------------------------------------------- Malevolent HauntingsThis type of ghost is one that can be dangerous as it seems to be on a path to harm or inflict pain onto living people. The ghost/spirit may well be guarding its old home or else it could be a ghost/spirit who wasnt a very nice person when it was alive, ie someone with a vicious, malicious, attention seeking nature. It has been said that malevolent hauntings are caused by a ghost/spirit who wants to inflict the misery it may have felt in its previous life. Not all malevolent ghosts are there to cause harm to individuals - just prefering to make a nuisance of themselves and to bring attention to themselves by tormenting their victims. This is where poltergeist activity comes into play, where objects may be moved or thrown, doors slammed and things thrown across a room.A Benevolent HauntingA ghost/spirit who "looks out" for others in the land of the living. They are said to protect us and our families whether it be from day to day mishaps or even evil spirits/entities. It is usual for this type of ghost to be related in some way to the family or person they are protecting.An Intelligent HauntingThis describes a ghost who is aware of who it is haunting and is aware of its surroundings and of living people and therefore completely aware of what it is doing. Intelligent hauntings are usually carried out by malovent entities.Residual HauntingsThis type of haunting is where a ghost/spirit person is not aware that it is actually still here. Residual ghosts or residual energies left behind in certain places or buildings usually replay an occurance over and over. Therefore, for example, if a tragic event happened whereby someone lost their life, the residual energies of that ghost would either be felt very strongly by those in the land of the living or people can see the ghost in the same place at the same time, perhaps walking through a wall emanating sadness. Residual energies can be good, bad or sad. Its almost like someone leaving their imprint on the world. It has also been described as being like a video clip being played continuously over and over.Benign HauntingsA benign haunting is by an entity that is either unconcerned about the living or unaware of their presence. This type may either be an intelligent or residual haunting. Sometimes the entity does not realise it has passed over it will carry on with its way of life completely oblivious to its effect on the living, ie hearing footsteps or finding objects moved.Poltergeist HauntingsA spirit or ghost that manifests itself by moving around and influencing inanimate objects. Disruptive behaviour such as raps,bumps thumps, knocks, footsteps, and bed-shaking, all without a discernible point of origin or physical reason for occurrence. Many accounts also detail objects being thrown about the room, furniture being moved, and even people being levitated. Though rare, a few poltergeists have been known to speak, including the Bell Witch in 1817. Further info Poltergeists

Powered by tech.groups.yahoo.com Black Hope Cemetary -You many have heard this story or indeed seen the film based on events that happened in 1980 when Ben and Jean Williams and their grand-daughter purchased their new home in Newport, Houston, Texas. The whole neighbourhood was beautiful and their home was brand new - their dream home.However, almost straight away strange things began to happen in their new home. The family noticed a strange feeling within the house, a dark and gloomy atmosphere and other strange things happened like the toilet flushing by itself at odd times. The diswasher began doing washing cycles by itself. There seemed to be cold spots around the house and strange electrical problems which the family could not explain.. The problems mounted when their daughter became very ill and even poisonous snakes were found on the property. They encountered "freak" rain storms which left behind large numbers of huge worms, large ants invading the property which could not be killed by hot water!!The family always had the feeling that they were being watched by something and they often heard footsteps in the hallways. It was said that Ben Williams had an episode where he saw two ghosts or forms who touched him with icy hands. He was then admitted to hospital after suffering an asthma attack.Eventually the rest of the neighbors got to talking and most reported similar things happening within their own homes such as tv's turning themselves on and off, children's toys working and moving without batteries and toilets flushing by themselves, seeing ghosts, but none of them had any way to explain the occurances. After a while a horrifying discovery was made by two workers who were digging a swimming pool - two decomposed bodies were found buried in a neighbours back garden. It was then they learned the development of homes were infact built on top of an old black cemetary.Facts began to slowly emerge. They were able to locate an elderly man named Jasper Norton who as a youth had worked as a gravedigger. Not only could he help identify whom the graves belonged to, but he also told them how they came to be there. The subdivision was built over the graves of an abandoned cemetery that had been called "Black Hope." Buried in pauper and often unmarked graves were the remains of at least 60 people most of whom had been former slaves.Horrified by the incidents that now seemed to be intensifying, and disgusted at the thought of having even unwittingly desecrated a graveyard many of the residents left the area, some taking a huge financial loss and simply abandoning their homes. Jean Williams was convinced that the carved markings on the tree in her back yard were in actuality a makeshift grave marker. As the Developer continued to dispute that the area had been a cemetery, Jean attempted to prove her case by digging around the strangely marked tree. Her daughter Tina, age 30, tried to help but collapsed and died of a massive heart attack. Jean and Ben devastated by their loss, and convinced the property was at least partially to blame also fled the subdivision.The William's neighbors sued the Developer and were awarded a large cash settlement by a jury, but the judge in the case set aside this decision and none of the residents of the Newport subdivision received any money in compensation for their losses.Many of the former residents now have rebuilt their lives, and are no longer plagued with the problems they experienced while living unintentionally over the graves of the Black Hope Cemetery. We would like to meet people with an interest in the paranormal. Those people who beleive that there is so much more out there and another life after we leave this world. Alternative people with an interest in the spiritual side of life, healing, rune readers, alternative health therapies. Basically anyone who has an open and not closed mind. People who are happy with good souls who like to make friends, chill out and go with the flow...

Spooky Video's Real or Fake? Haunted Britain and Ireland Links Paranormal Database, spooky snaps Haunted Britain Featured Article in Spiritual Circles: I recently watched an episode of Dead Famous where Gail and Chris were trying to find and contact the spirit of Alfred Hitchcock. It really was an amazing episode as they visited some really atmospheric & spooky locations. On this particular journey one of the places that they visited in their search for Alfred Hitchcock's ghost was a place called The Winchester Mystery House in San Jose California, which was a place that Alfred liked to visit. It is reportedly very haunted and it is one of the most unusual homes you are ever likely to hear about. I was so fascinated by it I thought you would appreciate an article on it - enjoy! The house was designed and built by a lady named Sarah Winchester and she was the wife of the heir to the Winchester Rifle fortune, William Wirt Winchester.An Oliver Winchester was William's father and William was named as the vice president of the Winchester Co. around 1871. When his father passed away in 1880, it was then that William became the owner of 48% of the Winchester Co. It is said that the "Winchester Repeating Rifle" was infact one of the main reasons that the American-West could have been taken from the native population who had been there on the land for years and years.The "Lever Action Rifle" was not a new rifle and had been in use for a number of years previous, however it was Oliver Winchester (William's father) who had developed a way to mass produce the rifle. Subsequently the company grew prosperous as the gun became popular. Fans of the gun, it was said, were General George Custer and even President Theodore Roosevelt to name a few.Sarah Winchester (then Pardee) and William were married in 1862 and subsequently had a daughter Annie (their only child) who sadly died but a month after she was born. The couple were suffering with their grief (understandably) and this was when they first consulted the services and guidance of a medium. This then marks the start of Sarah's dealings with the paranormal. Sarah's husband William died of Tuberculosis in 1881 which left a grieving Sarah in mourning for the rest of her life. 'Sarah Winchester' The house was bought in 1884 by Sarah Winchester and her $20,000,000 inheritance was used to transform the house to her specifications. The work was non-stop on the house until the day Sarah died which would have been 38 years after work first started on the house.Winchester House has a staggering 160 rooms which can only be described as a mixture of hidden places, twists and turns, staircases that lead to nowhere, dead ends, doors that do not lead to anywhere and a door that opens out to an 8 foot drop!! And that just scratches the surface! Sarah Winchester had a team of builders build the house to her orders and it was said that she didn't even have proper blue-prints - instead she would often sketch her ideas on the table cloth or scraps of paper!There are many alleged reasons why Sarah built her house the way she did and the one which is widely beleived is that she built it that way so as to confuse the spirits and ghosts which were in her home so that they would leave her alone.If we go back to the medium that Sarah became involved with after the death of her young daughter, it is said that it was this person who told Sarah that her home and family were infact cursed by the spirits of the people who had been killed by Winchester Rifles and furthermore that this was why her husband and daughter had died - the spirits getting their revenge. It seemed that the medium took advantage of Sarah's traumatised state by apparently advising her to buy a house and continually construct it the way the spirits wanted her to, telling her that this was the only way she could escape the spirits and that if she stopped work on the house her own life would end.So the porported information that Sarah used to hold seances practically every night to contact spirits to help guide her into making her house the way she constructed it seem to fit.Whatever the truth is behind The Winchester Mystery House it is certainly intriguing and there are definate numerous reports of poltergeist activity and sightings in that house - so if you ever visit it - dont forget to tell us what you think!I have found some really good links which give further information and pictures (inside and out) of The Winchester Mystery House.
