I love that Shawn doesn’t shy away from these stories. Love hearing about people’s experiences with the supernatural

If you have ever lived near or next to a Civil War battlefield then you know about these things. One house I lived in we had a soldier walk through the kitchen 3 or 4 times a week.

In 1980 my family moved to Mass for a year. I was 15 at the time. One night I woke up to see someone standing next to my bed. They appeared to be staring out the window and not moving. I was terrified and couldnt move at first for fear. I silently stared at them for at east a full minute pretending to still be asleep trying to figure out who it could be. I began to notice there was a strange slightly dark goldish glow about them slightly because of the moonlight coming through the window. I could see the person had short very curly hair and apeared to be wearing clothes from another century... like the 1700s or something. After a while I started to recognize that I wasn't looking at a real person and I finally summoned the courage to reach out. I lost sight of my hand for a moment and then watched as the person slowly dematerialize before my eyes. It traumatized me and I still remember it like it was yesterday. My mom still asks me to recount it from time to time still remembering the next morning when I told her what happened.

My first house has old lady spirit. My ex wife and I seen her in multiple occasions as a purplish glowing apparition. What’s even more wild is my stepson said she would tuck him in at night.

Even biblically God said that Abels blood was crying up from the ground. Any traumatic killings leave a spiritual footprint on the ground.

I think ghosts might be people who were killed by surprise or so quickly they don't even know they're dead. It's kind of like a visual echo of what is left of them. It's like an eggshell of what their soul was contained in wandering around aimlessly.

The Bible tells us that we ARE indeed surrounded by a spiritual realm, but that we should ABSOLUTELY stay away from opening the door to that realm. Why? Because the fallen angels that were kicked out of Heaven inhabit that realm. And they will do anything to steer us away from the truth of God, the reality of sin, and the need for forgiveness: basically, to reject the gospel of salvation thru Christ. They are powerful, deceitful and are very skilled at mixing truth with lies to make their narrative easy to believe. Those “spirits” are really fallen angels or demons pretending to be dead soldiers, dead relatives, dead famous people …. Remember that their agenda is to get u to engage with them, to open that door even farther. It sounds like this guy’s family already had already been opening that door with voodoo. Bad news. What is the cure? Jesus. Mark 3:11 And whenever the unclean spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.”

I saw one. My family has an 1800s farmhouse in the country. My parents heard things there many times when I was kid, like muffled talking and distant music in the middle of the night. One night, I was in bed and heard whisper talking that I couldn't understand. I got goosebumps and rolled over in the darkness and saw a wispy, smoke-like figure with a beard hunched over with a cane that then slid by and disappeared. Guests have also had weird dreams there of people standing around their beds. Years later, a woman showed up one day and said she used to live there. She said her grandfather had polio and had passed in the room where I saw the old man-like figure. TRUE STORY!

Grew up in a 150 year old (ish) home, and we (and the occupants before us) had more experiences than we have time to tell. One day in specific, we were having a college football game day party - family is all Nebraska fans - and the kitchen was full of people, my mom was facing the sink, I was leaning against the stove facing the opposite direction of her, about 3 ft away. She was talking so everyone was mostly looking in her direction, and out of nowhere something started tugging on the tail of her shirt pretty damn vigorously. She yelled at me to stop, I was in shock just watching her shirt being tugged on, then she turned to see it wasn’t me. Looked like what happens when a little kid is trying to get your attention and tugs on your clothing, which would fit with the little girl in a white dress my mother would see on occasion in the early morning hours when she would get ready for work and the rest of the house was asleep. Man, too many instances to tell, but those are a couple. Also, the vast majority of incidents seemed to take place in the fall - not sure why. Edit: forgot to mention, never, not even once, were any of the “hauntings” malicious or scary. Hard to explain, but whatever it was, simply felt like it was part of the home. Almost added an odd charm to the home.

Lived in a 1700 former slave home. Beautiful Victorian house. I saw so many ghost in that house I got used to it. I remember vividly hearing footsteps in the attic and then coming down the stairs which ended in front of my house. Once a week, woo wee

Every time sleep on my back with the door open that sleep paralysis be creeping up 😭

I've never seen a ghost. I HAVE had several people who I trust and who are not the type to lie tell me, looking in my eyes, about their experiences. My uncle and his father, both great honest men, saw my uncle's deceased mother very regularly. So did his step-mother. It was all gracious and loving in nature. I had several airmen who worked for me in Okinawa report noises and marching soldiers on remote roads at night. Sober, trustworthy, intelligent men. Also one poor girl who wouldn't drive to that part of the base anymore. IDK what it all is.

My great grandmothers house had a drummer boy from the civil war buried in the ground under the dirt in the basement. She used to see and talk to him all the time. My aunt finally had him dug up and removed but his spirit is still there.

That levitation ritual he described is no good. He said 5 people essentially put points of a pentagram on a person, say they feel heat and the person they’re touching levitates. As innocent as things like this may seem, they are occult and can lead to very bad things happening. As Christians we are instructed not to mess with stuff like this because we have no idea what’s happening in the supernatural world to cause the levitation.

I went to College in the mid 90s at Marion Military Institute in Marion Alabama. That place is definitely haunted. Sounds of marching down the barracks halls in the middle of the night and soldiers in formation in the middle of the night in the quad. It was a Civil War hospital , and was later turned into a military college. It was weird, because you’d hear the formation of the soldiers “on the wind” and it came in waves. If that makes sense.

I lived by a large graveyard and had many visitors "flowing through" my house. Most were friendly but some, not so much. I'm surprised you guy don't have many experiences from your deployments, especially in war-torn areas. I would love to document those.

I was more concerned with him saying to his dad not to spank him than those ghosts tbh

Hauntings are real. Other than a haunted house I lived in I worked aboard a WWII tanker ship that had been converted into a cargo ship. I can share many experiences I had on it. It was most definitely haunted.

Great show Sean.keep it up.
