Ghost Stories & Paranormal Encounters

It all started on a holiday visit to my cousin’s place in Chandigarh, India. We had developed the habit of waking up late night and watching movies, gossiping. I had always been interested in paranormal stories and took keen interest in hearing other people’s experiences. It was during one of these nights, me and my sister were talking casually about the cemetery built behind our house.

There had been cases of unusual sightings and strange noises were heard. Though we didn’t exactly believed in all this, but the stories we had heard from our neighbors had convinced us to believe there was indeed something strange and eerie about the place. So that night we decided to take a stroll along the cemetery road. As we approached the area, we could feel the chillness in the air and the darkness of the night. The streets wore a deserted look. We could feel the silence in the atmosphere. Some fear crept inside our soul… and we decided to head back home.

On reaching back home, we no longer felt like talking about this. There was an unusual silence in the room and we decided to sleep. It was some where around quarter past three, and i woke up feeling a heavy sense of terror. It was as if something was pulling me down. I could feel a heavy weight on my chest. I could feel an excruciating pain in the lower part of my body. It was as if some powerful force was pulling me down. I struggled to get up but failed. It lasted long… the sensation was terrifying and painful… I tried shouting too but my throat felt choked.

The next moment I felt a sudden extreme pain in the back of my head like some one had smashed something hard against the back of my head. I heard my sister’s voice calling up my name… I could now finally get up… but I was in extreme pain and surprisingly was lying flat in the washroom.

In the meantime my sister rushed to my help and escorted me to bed. As I left the washroom I could see a shadow like figure near the window. I still couldn’t find how I got to the washroom.

It was a strange feeling as I know it was nothing near to sleepwalking but something extraordinary. It amazes me to this day. The pain, force I felt that day were indeed something close to paranormal.
