When I was about 5 or 6, I was at a cousin's house. To keep me entertained we were playing hide & seek. I counted she hid. Not long after I finished counting, I heard a noise from one of the rooms. The window was open blowing in cold air. So the atmosphere was already set, the chill, the shadows from the trees dancing on the wall. As you can imagine, it would naturally be scary for a child. All of a sudden this dark mass stands up behind the curtains and lunges forwards screeching. I s*** myself. But of course it turned out to be my cousin.
A few strange ghostly things have happened to me that I can't really explain, but I can explain the following. On the way home from my cousin's, I saw a ghostly figure.
I believe what I had seen was a projection of a visual image, stimulated by the terror which was invoked by the shadows and darkness, the same terror I felt when I saw what I thought was a monster behind the curtain at my cousin's house.
The visual projection thing is, I think, the best explanation for what I saw in the above case anyway.
I have had other things happen in recent years, but can't really explain them. They were really random and I discount the visual perception thing in those cases because, they happened when I least expected it, or when I didn't feel fear before hand.
