OTHERPLANE

I am a college student who has just moved into a very interesting place. There is much lore to speak of here, so much that I could not possibly tell you the entire story in an e-mail, however, I do feel that it would be well worth your time to look into these matters.

The apartment complex that I have just moved into is owned by a tiny liberal arts college that has a very strong Christian focus. Every unit in this complex has reports of paranormal activity, a demon they claim, with the bulk of the activity having occurred in my unit prior to my residence here. One of the tenants used to live in my unit with two other boys. The events he reported were bed levitation, a roomate who suddenly awoke to find himself shaving his own head, furniture shaking, intense feelings of dread, cold spots, and nightmares by which this entity would use his most sacredly guarded thoughts against him. He claimed that there was once a boy who lived in my unit who practiced a form of magic by which he would invoke demons. There was a priest who lived next door who performed exorcisms for much of Texas. He was very successful, yet could not exercise the demons of this complex. No major signs of activity have begun yet since I have been here except for several nights while I was falling asleep, the bed began to shake gently. It feels like a mild earthquake which doesn't occur in this region of Texas I can say with certainty. I hadn't told my neighbors of this when they came to me and asked if it had happened so if it is merely hysteria, it is mass hysteria. Many people have witnessed these events and my neighbor claims that it will worsen and become more frequent with time. The couch has begun to shake and I too have had dreams about a situation that causes me much pleasure while I am dreaming, and much pain when I awake.

I need your help, I am a girl who is frightened to live alone in this place under these circumstances. My neighbor is a huge hulky marine and this has reduced him into a paranoid victim who cowers beneath his crucifixes and virgin symbols. He checks in on me periodically when he says he has a cold feeling in his apartment and feels the hairs on the back of his neck stand up. Please help me if you can, I don't want to become like my neighbor, fearful and insecure in my own home.

First off, try not to get over excited about this things. The more you let the emotions take over the more your logic will decrease. When you feel them to be around, calmly let them know that you do not have the time intertaining them. Most of the time they will listen but the more they feel that you are really scared, they can and will manifest on this. There are 3 males and one female entities hosting this haunting scenarios.

How many people are there in the complex? Are they all experiencing this? Can you provide a total count? Is the college aware of this? Could this be a mass hysteria as you mentioned and amplified by time? Where about in Texas are you located?

We are based in Arizona and we have been looking for a known haunted place with the consistency of occurrences and to be able to do an exorcism, on poltergeist activities. What we have done mostly is "long range exorcism" and it does work as verified by the party involved. What we have not done is to be in the actual area and encounter them in their own environment. Our handicap is that we are not geared to venture into this financially. We are not doing this for the money but to verify that paranormal occurrences are real and our method of exorcism does work.

I will give you whatever you need. I will spend the night on my couch and let you have the bed. You are so very welcome here. It is in Fort Worth, Texas and right beside Texas Christian University, which is where I go to. I have much to show you here including a very old church called Fort God by locals and St. Stephen Presbyterian, which may be the cause of all of our troubles. I really think that this is worth all of our time. I have often considered investigating the paranormal and I think that you will find me to be both open and logical. Let me know what you need and I will provide it.

It is really great of you guys to help me out, but I must warn you. I will not gain support for doing this by my colleaugues. They are religious fanatics whose fathers are all catholic/episcopal priests and they would never condone the use of such "secular devices" in spiritual warfare. I will be happy to feed you and house you, but I would be hard pressed to find funds for airfare or anything. I am just a student you know.

There are some questions I have about my current "house guests". You said there were 3 males and 1 female. Why are they here? How long have they been here? What are their names? Are they innocent, mischevious, malevolent? They have not harmed me or caused me great fear. They shake the bed and wake me up when I am running late for class or meetings and occasionally they shake the couch? What exactly did you mean when you said if they can tell I am afraid, they will manifest on it? I have lived with entities in two other places and have never been afraid before Charles told me all of his tales about my house. What is it that these entities want? Must they be exorcised or can I just peacefully co-exist with them? Are they always in my unit or do they travel from unit to unit? I am sorry to ask so many questions of you, I am just fascinated by this whole process and I would like to have as much information as I possibly can. Thank you for your time.

Ps., let me know if you need photos of the place or me in order to be able to tell more about the place, I have a scanner and this e-mail will allow me to send attachments.

Our initial intention was to drive there not knowing how far in Texas you were in....roughly 700+ miles. We were planning to visit some friends in New Mexico and Texas on the way back, but things got complicated because of a friend from Taiwan who is coming in tomorrow. He visits us once a year so we must be a good host. All is not lost however, because we release the entities from here (in Arizona), without having to go to your place. We will bring the entities to us and ask some of our standard questions.

Entities can sense human emotions (fear) and even if they just wanted to play, our interpretation of that will be the opposite because we cannot see them. They can co-exist with us in the same domicile and have no problems. In fact, more than a few readers will rather have them in the house as a guest and some entities really do feel at home with the reader. So we just leave the entities alone (no release unless the reader requests the entities be gone from their residence). In your case, we will give you the choice to let them play with the rest of the fanatics, for as long as they will leave you alone.

I am pretty sure that Charles amplified some of the stories but that's okay. Entities come and go as they please and whoever they plan to play with, will be their choice for that night or day. Do send pictures of you and your place/complex plus some background information of the area. It is better to do it this way so the college won't find out what you or we have done.

Well, actually I am not catholic. I am probably the only one here who isn't. It would be great if you could pull the entities in and querry them for me. It would give me a greater peace of mind especially since I am not so good with the fear thing. I can act big and tough, but if they sense it, I am totally caught. Nothing has happened for days here. I feel the bed shake occasionally very mildy but I feel a new calm in the area.

I was wondering if my father has been here, sort of making certain that nothing gets out of hand. He passed away when I was eighteen. Let me know what you find out. Oh, by the way, I am in Fort Worth, Texas, so I am in the northeast region of Texas right by Dallas.

Have you guys forgotten about me? I haven't heard anything for a few days, and I was just wondering what you had found out. The activity here has started up again. Last night my they were turning off my lamps and really shaking the bed. I can't prove it, but while sleeping I think they might have levitated me a little bit because I woke up when they dropped me. Let me know what you found out in the query and tell me how things are with you.

We brought the four (3 males and 1 female) entities to our location for questioning. Here are the results:

Female entity: Her name is Jill and she was murdered at age 17, 8 years ago. She enjoys playing/haunting the area. She is not releaseable.

Male entities: Two of the male entities were releaseable --- they were released. The third male entity was a black man and his name is Bobby. He too was murdered at age 20, 15 years ago. He also enjoys playing/haunting the area. He is not releaseable.

When the two remaining entities were asked if they would stop their playing/haunting, the answer was, "No". They would stop if they were told to stop. They were told to take it easy but was not told to stop.

When asked if they were aware of what they were doing, the answer was, "Yes".

When asked if they were Catholic, the answer was, "No", but they were religious.

I can deal with it fine if they don't mean any harm. They have never done anything threatening to me. It's my downstairs neighbor that they bother so much, but he bothers me so I can reasonably assume that he could annoy a spirit just as he annoys a human. They probably just don't like him! He thinks that they are demons. I didn't think that demons haunted apartments, it would seem like they would have more important things to do like possess people and what not. I don't think that they are demons, I am starting to think that they are protecting me. The other night, I fell asleep on the couch while studying for a very important exam. They shook the couch politely. Thanks a bunch!

I have a question. As it gets closer to Halloween, doesn't the veil between our plane of existence and their's get thinner? Will they be able to speak to me and I to them? Or can we communicate already? One of my friends spent the night here and woke up with bruises all over her face. Can you tell me why they did this to her? They have never hurt me or tried to do anything to scare me. I think they like me or at least are indifferent. What information do you have about this? Thank you for all that you have done for me.

Ever heard of jelousy? Jill was playing with your friend just to let you know that she's there. Just playing.
