[QUOTE="Pillars of Hercules, post: 1003515, member: 577"] [b]A way to find out?[/b] I feel basically the same way - a skeptic that can't entirely dismiss this stuff from the relatively trusted source that it this board. However, many of these stories are "explainable" depending on circumstances. The is a skeptic society of some kind (can't remember the name, but I imagine they have a web site) that offers a $1 million dollar reward for verifiable proof of the supernatural. So far, no one has been able to collect. In all seriousness, maybe some of the folks in this thread (the red blood plasma walls and/or the haunted Target, for instance), might want to take a shot at it! It would at least be interesting to see what the skeptics would make of whatever they could find in these haunted places. To add to the thread (although this is not supernatural), my brother suffers from night terrors. One night when we were on vacation he was fishing late (4am or so), and my mom heard some kids yelling in the night. She went down to check on my brother, and it turns out he had already gone to bed. She leaned over him and said "Are you ok, I heard someone scream?" Later, my brother said that a dark figure leaned into his field of vision and said "I can kill you once in your dreams!" Note how the two phrases rhyme. Anyhoo, my brother came out of the bed and attacked her in self-defense (my family is way more into "fight" than "flight," even where demons are concerned), knocking her backwards. She hit her head on a table, was cut, and quite a lot of blood was shed (superficial but nasty looking wound). I heard all this and charged down the stairs, intending to grab a kitchen knife and ready to fight to the death (again, my whole family is fanatical, what can I say). I never made it to the kitchen because of the bizarre sight I encountered - my brother pinning my mom down and clearly attacking her. The chilling thing was, he wasn't using his hands - he was trying to bite out her throat like some primal wolf-thing. Creepy. Anyway, we got my bro off my mom, he woke up, and promptly freaked out over what happened. Mom needed a stitch or two, but came through fine. We've never spoken of it again. [/QUOTE]
