CHEEZBURGER?!
GHOSTS! Yes I believe in spirits and the paranormal.
I've got my own tarot deck that I'm okay with.. My room-mates are better though.
I've had quite a few paranormal experiences in my life. My mom tells me that when I was 3 or 4 she walked up to my bedroom door to see me sitting on my bed talking to an empty rocking chair that was rocking on its own, and when she finally stopped spying and came in to ask what I was up to, I told her I'd been talking to my great-grandmother, who had passed away a few months before.
We were still living in my great-grandparents' house, we'd moved up there to care for my great-grandfather in his old age, and when we first arrived my great-grandmother had still been alive. She was very adamant about keeping the kitchen windows shut, to the point where she'd had someone nail them to the sills. After she passed, my mother pulled the nails out and had screens installed, and kept the windows open. On occasion, everyone would leave the kitchen to be in other rooms of the house, and we'd return to the kitchen to find the curtains drawn closed, windows shut, locked, and the outside shutters shut and latched.
Another time I was hanging out with a friend of mine in her room, and we were sitting on her bed reading when her small TV that sat on the dresser turned on to static, and we faintly heard someone talking through the static. It was creepy, so we turned the TV off, assuming maybe one of the neighbors had a universal remote that had triggered it or something, and the late hour and our tiredness, plus the brain's natural desire to make order of chaos, had caused us to hear voices in the static. It turned back on, and the voices seemed clearer. I got up and unplugged the TV, and while the plug was still in my hand, unplugged from the wall, the TV came on yet again.
We ended up burying the TV under boxes of books and old clothes, screen-down, in the way back corner of her closet..
They/them is (are?) my preferred pronoun(s?)
