People ask me ( as well as my husband) what is so interesting about horror, death,spirits, ghost, paranormal and general macabre? I tried to go back in my mind to a point where it all might have began. Recently, my memory came back with an answer. I think I was nine years old, and one day whilst walking to school I saw a dead man, the sheet had half blown of his corpse at the crime scene, he’d been stabbed right across the road from my school. I stood and stared for a moment. But after my mind processed what I actually saw. It was, to me, a shell without something important…something that makes us living people…us. I think that’s when I bought my first book on the paranormal. ( luckily not a bible) it gave many theories from many cultures and times. It intrigued me how so many people had a belief of what happens to a person.
After that poor man died, some mums at the school gates muttered things about still seeing him wander the grass verge. That just piqued my interest more! What did they mean they saw him?.. And so my curiosity continues to this day. I’ve met witches,mediums,believers in search of why people think they see things. I’ve had my own experiences which I’ve analysed as sensory deprivation….possibly. I have friends that are desperate to see ghosts! Friends that think they have a spirit guide. I’ve had 3 separate accounts of a small white haired old lady following me, may be Emma, my grandmother. Again I may have saw her once, but it was my wedding night, and I was missing her very much at that time, wishful thinking??
My search continues, and I quite enjoy doing it. Any feed back or articles etc would be welcome
