Clairaudience, Sleep Paralysis or a combination of both?

Clairaudience, Sleep Paralysis or a combination of both?
Nov. 28,2007
This is a story about a Paranormal event that I experienced when I was just 15 years old. At the time, my family and I had just moved into a new home. The movers had not yet finished delivering our furniture. Therefore, for the first month, my entire family and I slept in the same bedroom.

One time during this month, I suddenly awoke from a dead sleep, sat straight up in my bed, wanted to scream so badly but I could not. The reason I wanted to scream is because I was hearing things that were really scaring me.

I heard a lot of noise. The noise seemed to be coming from my living room. I heard people running back and forth, heard people giving other people orders on what to do but I could not make out what was being said. It seemed to be the kind of noise you were hear in a hospital emergency room.

At this point, I thought people had broken into my home and I was just scared out of my mind. I also could not understand why everyone else in my family which were all asleep in the same bedroom did not seem to hear anything and were all sound asleep.

After the noise quieted down, I was finally able to scream and started to cry hysterically. My parents immediately woke up and tried to comfort and calm me down. They told me the noise I heard was just a dream and to try to get back to sleep. My father however did check out the entire home and assured me that no one had broken into our house.

However, the next day, my family got two different phone calls. The first phone call informed us that a family member from my father’s side died in a hospital emergency room, several states away, during the night. No one in my family even knew that one of our family members was even sick. The second phone call informed us that another family member on my mother’s side also died in his sleep during the same night.

So what do you all think? Was this Sleep Paralysis, Clairaudience or a combination of the two?

Hearing a Phone Conversation 5 hours before it Occurs

Hearing a Phone Conversation 5 hours before it Occurs

It has been almost been a year now since my nephew and his girlfriend died of a drug overdose and were found dead in the bed of her dorm room at a State University in Florida. It was on a Sunday at around 8:00 PM when we got the news.

Here is an article if you would like to read about this story:

Article about the incident

Here is a link to my nephew’s MYSPACE page where his friends are still leaving grief related messages :

Ricky’s MYSPACE PROFILE

Here is a link to his girlfriend’s MYSPACE page:

Nikki’s MYSPACE Profile

I am sure some of you may remember me sending out a bulletin shortly thereafter. In the bulletin, I warned all of you of the dangers of drugs. I also asked all of you to you to stop if you were taking illegal drugs as I did not want to lose anyone else in my life due to a drug overdose.

Even though we did not get the official news that day until 8:00 PM, I was at my computer in my bedroom that day at around 3:00 PM. The rest of my family was in the living room. I heard one of our three phones ring. I did not get up to answer as I noticed that it stopped ringing and it seemed like my husband answered it.

I heard him talk to what it seemed to me to be, his mom. I heard him say out-loud, “What??? What about little Ricky?”. Ricky is our nephew and they call him little Ricky because his dad, my husband’s brother, has the same name and my family like to call him, big Ricky.

I heard bits and piece of the rest of the conversation but could not make out what was said next. I meant to ask my husband for the rest of the afternoon, what his mom told him about little Ricky.

I, however, kept getting distracted with other weekend activities and kept forgetting to ask him. I now really wish that I had. This is because he is a skeptic of all Paranormal events and this would have shook him up because of what happened when we got the actual phone call at 8:00 PM that night.

So that night at about 8:00 PM, I was again on my computer and again heard one of our three phones ring. Again, it sounded like my husband was talking to his mom. Again, he said the same words aloud.

This time, I came running out of the room to see what the story was. Having my husband say the same words twice in one day made me feel that the news was not ordinary.

My husband was holding the phone, still talking with his mom and had a look of shock on his face. I whispered to him, “what is it about little Ricky?”. He whispered back while still trying to listen to his mom which was hysterical, “he passed away today “. I asked him to repeat it, not wanting to believe what I was hearing. He repeated the same thing again. I immediately started to cry and now I was also hysterical.

After the phone call and I had calmed down a bit. I asked my husband whether his mom has called earlier and told him something else about little Ricky? He asked me why?

I told him about hearing the phone ring earlier around 3:00 PM, hearing him answer the phone and hearing him say the same words aloud that he said when the actual phone call came in.

He said that the phone never rang earlier and this was the first time he had spoken to his mom today. Personally, I was stunned because I had never had an experience like this happen to me before. He just said, he thought that was interesting but I could tell that he thought it was not possible for this to have happened.

So, my questions are, is there any specific name for this kind of psychic occurrence? I have researched many Paranormal and Psychic web-sites since then and I have not found anything that fits my case exactly. Could this be a  clairaudiance,  premonition, precognition or an experience that is a combination of some of these? Also, has anyone here experienced something like this before?

Since I published my last blog about the Paranormal part of my trip, I have had several private messages from you guys asking me to write about some of my personal encounters with Ghosts.

Here is my most interesting one. I first posted it on my favorite Ghost forum on Nov. 12, 2005 which is located here: Ghost Place Forum

I then submitted it to the Paranormal about site for possible publication. It was published on the About Paranormal site on Dec. 1st, 2005 here: Paranormal About site

Lady’s Room Ghost
by nycrican

In 1981, I had just moved to a new area and went out to eat at a restaurant in town with my boyfriend at the time. I got up to go to the lady’s room. It looked like it was completely empty to me. I used the restroom and was washing my hands at the sink. In front of the sink was a mirror. All of a sudden, the image of a lady appeared in the mirror and was apparently standing in back of me. I did not hear the door open and I could have sworn I was the only one in the restroom. I thought, well, I may have been wrong.

When I saw the lady, she was dressed in old fashion clothing and was wearing a long dress. I immediately thought to myself, gee, that lady needs some fashion advice. Maybe she is in a strange religion where they dressed like that. I smiled at her reflection in the mirror and was quickly trying to finish washing my hands since it was a small bathroom with only two stalls and one sink.

I finally got done and turned around, and there was no one there. I was dumbfounded. I went back to the dinner table and told my boyfriend at the time about my experience. He said that the lady probably left and I did not hear the door close.

I did not think very much about it until later when I was reading a newspaper article in which this restaurant was mentioned. It stated that a long time ago, a train derailed right in back of the restaurant and that many people died. That many people have reported seeing ghosts at the restaurant and that one lady reported the exact same incident that happened to me also happened to her.

The restaurant is still in the same place and is called Ashley’s. It used to be called Gentleman Jim’s when I saw the image in the mirror. The Florida Today newspaper reported the story on it.

Epilogue:

Since this story was published, there has been several things which have happened to help explain the mystery of the Lady’s Room Ghost.

1. One of the members of Ghost Place Forum
responded to my original November post right after my story was published on the Paranormal About site. He informed me that if I wanted to know what really happened to that lady, I needed to read a new book just published by Charlie Carlson. The book is a fictional story based on the true life story of this lady before she became a ghost. The name of the book is, “Ashley’s Shadow”. Here is a picture of the cover of the book.

Note:The picture of the lady on the cover of the book is not the actual lady that was murdered.

I ordered the book and read it in one day. It turns out this lady was murdered in 1934 in that restaurant in the lady’s room. At the time of the murder, the restroom used to be a storage closet. Her killer was never caught and the author of this book believes that the killer was the son of a local judge at the time and that the judge used his power to close out the murder case before a proper murder investigation couid take place.

2. By coincidence, someone at the same paranormal forum posted a link to, “the Florida Paranormal Research Foundation”. The thread is shown here: Ghost Place I was checking out this site and when I when I read about their investigation called, ” Case Synopsis Rockledge, FL Apartment “, my blood ran cold because this story was about the same ghost I saw. Here is a link to The Paranormal site, just click on the last link of this page to read the story about the same ghost I saw: Florida Paranormal Research Foundation

In this investigation, the ghost I saw had followed one of the customers home from the restaurant. Details about the restaurant were not mentioned on this site. I however knew immediately who the Ghost in question was. The name of the Ghost in this apartment was revealed to a medium from the Florida group. It was the same name as in the book written by Charlie Carlson.

I emailed one of the contact people shown on the site. I told them I have personally seen the Ghost and that everything the Ghost revealed to the medium in the apartment investigation was correct. I also mentioned that a book was written about this Ghost. Tim, the person I emailed at the site had no idea that a book had been published. He said he would check out the book. I have not heard from him since. I invite comments from everyone on this story.
