me and my haunted heater

Sorry jb but the only thing that seems not-quite-normal in my life is some of the threads here in myLot. Who call possibly call them normal? Fun, yes, but normal?

Our house has something non-living staying here and odd things happen all the time most of which are not frightening but, a few are something that startle us when we aren't expecting it. Your question would be much easier to answer if you had asked the most frightening So, I'm leaving you with an unanswered question

The most non-frightening paranormal activity I have experienced was in the ladies room of one of my previous offices. The building itself has a reputation, a sort of urban legend connecting the owner with a huge snake. Anyway, I was on the day shift so there were fewer people around our office. Since I worked in a call center, the place is usually packed with people at night. So I take my usual 15 minute break and do what I have to do in the ladies room. I am all alone and I don't mind. I wash my hands and proceed to the dry my hands. Our faucets are motion/heat sensored so it automatically turns on. The sink/faucet that I did not use suddenly turns on and I am all alone in the ladies room. I am not even near the sink for the sensor to detect heat from me or any motion from me since I am just standing drying my hands. I go out without a glance, fearing what I would find in the mirror. I just told myself that the sensor must be faulty.

call a priest. if that dont work, call a plumber. frightening paranormal? My mom used to have a light turner on-er. really made her mad when the light went back on after she pulled the fuse out of the box, so she yelled at it, used bad words.... No more light turner onner. I can't discuss it any more, I think I have PTSD from the whole experience.

rabbit, have you considered that the haunted radiator could be explained by one of the rats going missing in the move.

i have never witnessed any paranormal activity. maybe i am too careless to take notice of such things. i would suggest you get rid of the haunted heater (get it fixed) or else you will be haunted by bills (electric) and bill collectors....that would certainly not be a normal thing to be in....

I just wrote a post on this very thing. When my grandson was a tiny one I think his long passed great and great great granmothers visited him. Around Christmas time 2002 my grandson who was only a couple of months old at the time began staring over at the wall and giggling when it seems not to be normal. He acted as if he was jabbering at someone when alone in his crib more than once. It just seemed odd and I think their spirits came to visit and welcome him (their first grandson) into the family.

Well this hasn't happened to me but wouldn't it be fantastic if you had a ghost that did all the cleaning for you. Can you imagine waking up everyday and going downstairs to a spotless, shiny front room, fantatic! It could also do the ironing for you, wrap all the Christmas presents that are sitting in the cupboard and even cook your tea. Oh, well, I can dream can't I?

Its really frustrating when your appliances or any other electrical stuff won't work right. I don't really know if it could be caused by paranormal activity. Sometimes I wonder if ghosts are really watching me everyday.

Hee hee! I can't think of any such stories, Jb, but that's class - haunted heater. I'd love to know where I could find a wee heated ghostie for my radiators! Lol!

Hi Jb, an electric heater that won't turn off sounds pretty good during the cold months and a hot issue during the warm months. I live with my sister who has two young'uns and the house is filled with the latest toys that move, talk and sing and cook, you know what I mean, well every night after making sure all the said "alive" toys are turned off, I will hear something, I think it's paranormal, my sister thinks I am abnormal. She says that it must be one of the toys...but I think maybe it is one of the "toys" possessed. It's not overly frightening as that the house is new and I do not believe a passing paranormal creature decided to come stay with us but for the life of me, I can't find the thing that comes alive after its been turned off. Different each night as well, sometimes music, others talking, nothing audibly understandable but it does provide entertainment as I regal the morning breakfast with the newest gossip from the "toys that come alive".

the most paranormal activity is going to a therapists office. there are so many reasons for things that one can't think straight. like who's who? who's the saine one, especially if you're the one accused of being insaine, and you notice patterns that are unwell in the other. what i hate about paranormal unsanity is that sometimes sanity is better than unsanity. but really what i mean, is that to be saine is to be more direct i think.

Non-frightening? Oh boy, that's going to be hard. Most of my paranormal experiences have been at least a little scary. I suppose my one experience that wasn't terribly frightening was when I was at my sister in law's house [she has a haunted house, we all swear] babysitting the kids. I turned to go into the bathroom looking for Jordan, and the closet door opened up behind me slowly. When I turned around and yanked the door open to surprise him, there was nobody there. After that I went into his room and there he was! Later at lunch, I asked him how he could disappear so quickly from the closet. He said he wasn't in that closet, he'd been hiding under his bed. But I couldn't find him so he got bored and came out of hiding. [That was the point where I got a little creeped out].

I have never had any hunted electric appliance, and I don't believe in them either. But it's pretty annoying when electric appliances stop working. It happened recently to my photo camera. The lens got crazy and after moving nonsensely for a few minutes, the screen would look blind.

A premonition? Woke up one morning early in my 2nd pregnancy convinced it was twin. Pooh poohed the idea and went back to sleep. Found out about a month later that it was twins.

Hi, jb. It would be when my lights were turned off.. Sometimes, I will leave them off and walk out of the room only to come back and see them on. I be thinking that some unknown force is turning them on.. But, it is me that is leaving them on. I hope that I am right about this one!

I have a haunted refrigerator. It make a "thunk" noise every evening...only in the evening...but not at the exact same time every evening. My husband has looked at it...tinkered with this and that...and it's fine...except for that clunk. I joke that the ghost is getting ice for his evening cocktail. I wonder what would happen if I ran out of ice?

While visiting a cousin at her new house in Redland, AL, I got chilled and stood in front of the heater to warm up. Suddenly all around me flames were devouring the house while I stood and watched. Just as quick, the scene disappeared and my cousin and brother were still sitting on the sofa, drinking coffee and chatting. I asked my cousin if she had fire insurance and told her what I saw. She and my brother laughed, saying I had gotten to close to the heater. Two months later, she and her family were at our house, except for her dad, who wasn't feeling well and had stayed at her house to rest. We were sitting outside talking when we saw the sky light up in the direction of my cousin's home. We jumped in our cars and took off. Her house burned to the ground, due to a faulty wire in the refrigerator. Thank goodness, a neighbor got her dad out in time. Since then, I've had a couple of times when I knew something was going to happen and it turned out to be true. I'm just glad it's not like Medium or Ghost Whisperer! I couldn't handle visions all the time. It's way too nerve wracking.

I have a haunted bathroom, always hearing a drip drip drip that seems to be coming from outside. All houses seem "haunted" when they get quiet, especially at night. And...if I leave opposing windows open in the apartment, the bedroom door slams itself shut. I joke about the bedroom ghost a lot! Karen

That's pretty weird. Was the heater in the house when you moved in? and if so, is the house kind of old? My family's house was built in the 1940's, and the heater/ac in it (isn't as old as the house) is pretty old. It's always acted weird, and won't change even when electricians come to try and fix it. It comes on at odd times and only blasts either really hot or really cold air.
