Paranormal Articles All Month of October.
Spooky season is here once again.
The leaves are ablaze, the nights grow longer, and a chill whispers on the wind.
The veil thins, the shadows deepen, and we enter Paranormal October.
This month, dear reader, we don’t just tell ghost stories – we invite you to peek into the abyss.
“I have always been interested in the paranormal and afterlife, everything from ghosts to angels. I think that everyone has that curiosity of the great unknown.”
– Hilary Duff
What Does Paranormal Mean?
“Paranormal” refers to experiences or phenomena that cannot be explained by scientific understanding as we know it. It essentially delves into the realm of the unusual, the unexplained, and sometimes the unsettling.
Think ghosts, UFO sightings, telepathy, premonitions – anything that stretches the boundaries of our current scientific framework.
While the term often conjures up images of spooky spooks and things that go bump at night, it encompasses a vast and diverse range of phenomena.
Some people interpret it as evidence of supernatural forces or hidden dimensions. In contrast, others view it as unexplained aspects of our complex reality waiting to be unraveled by future scientific advancements.
The paranormal’s beauty (or perhaps the spookiness) lies in its ambiguity. It invites curiosity, challenges our understanding of the world, and leaves room for endless possibilities.
Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, the paranormal fascinates many, offering a glimpse into the mysteries that still shroud our existence.
So, the next time you hear a creak in the night or catch a glimpse of something strange out of the corner of your eye, remember the word “paranormal.”
It reminds us that there’s still so much we don’t know about the universe and ourselves, which makes it all endlessly intriguing.
Of course, remember to approach the paranormal with a healthy dose of skepticism and critical thinking. While exploring the possibilities is fun, it’s important to stay grounded in what we know and avoid getting swept away by sensational claims or unfounded beliefs.
Happy exploring! And who knows, maybe you’ll stumble upon something truly extraordinary.
Is There Really More Paranormal Activity in the Fall?
No scientific evidence proves that paranormal activity increases during the fall season. However, various fascinating cultural beliefs and anecdotal observations link the two.
Here’s a closer look:
Cultural factors:
Fall coincides with Halloween, a widely celebrated festival associated with costumes, spooky stories, and the spirit world. This cultural focus on the macabre and supernatural might prime people to perceive more paranormal occurrences during this time.
Fall marks the harvest season, which traditionally held symbolic significance related to death and rebirth in many cultures. This association with the cycle of life and death could potentially influence perceptions of paranormal activity.
Some folkloric traditions believe the veil between our world and the spirit realm thins in the fall, allowing increased interaction with ghosts and other entities. This belief likely stems from the shortening days and colder temperatures, which can create a more introspective and potentially eerie atmosphere.
Anecdotal observations:
- Some paranormal investigators and enthusiasts claim to receive more reports of hauntings and other unexplained phenomena during the fall months. However, it’s important to consider potential biases and the influence of cultural factors in such reports.
- Shorter days and longer nights, coupled with colder temperatures and changing foliage, can contribute to a sense of melancholy and unease, which some people might misinterpret as evidence of paranormal activity.
Whether you believe in increased paranormal activity during fall is a personal choice. Remember, it’s always important to remain critical and open to various perspectives while exploring fascinating but unproven concepts.
Paranormal October Month On Mazzastick
If you are not familiar with Paranormal October, let me explain it. Besides personal growth, I am a big fan of the Paranormal. Since childhood, I have enjoyed horror movies, haunted hayrides and houses, and Halloween.
Delve into the darkest corners of your mind, where dreams blur the line between reality and the occult. Lucid dreams, where you are the puppet master, can become nightmares where unseen forces hold the strings.
Prophetic dreams, whispers of futures shrouded in uncertainty, leave you questioning if fate is preordained or malleable. And the Earth… is it a stable platform, or are we mere passengers on a shifting sphere hurtling toward an unknown end?
For October, only paranormal articles will be written.
‘Paranormal’ October Month: Ghouls, Ghosts & Legends
This weekend, I took my family to Monster-Mania Con in Hunt Valley, and we had a total blast. It was fantastic to see my favorite horror celebrities up close and personally and hear them talk about what it was like making movies.
Growing up in the 80s, the best decade ever, and having cable television, watching horror movies was something my friends and I often did. The 80s had the most various films and music, bar none.
I love horror movies, especially 80s horror movies. My favorite thing about horror movies is not the killing, foul language, or blood and guts, and a good horror movie doesn’t need those things to be good; The first Insidious Movie proved that point.
The truth is that those articles drive some extra traffic to my website. The paranormal and all-around weird subjects fascinate many, including me.
My Paranormal Story
I am an INFJ and have had my share of paranormal experiences. One incident, in particular, stands out, and I often share it with people close to me.
Have you ever seen the movie Serial Mom, starring Kathleen Turner? In the early 1980s, my grandparents lived on the same street as Kathleen Turner’s character.
One evening, I was at my grandparents’ home and went downstairs into the basement. The basement walls were made of Knotty Pinewood, and a seat bench made out of Knotty Pine was also a storage container for blankets and toys.
While sitting on the bench, I decided to ‘knock’ on the wooden bench three times. Right after I knocked, something tapped back three times.
I was startled, but even at age six, I had a rational mind, and I just thought my grandfather or brother tapped back. Perhaps they were in another room in the basement, and they knocked back.
I decided to go back upstairs to see who was missing. I went up the stairs and looked around, and everyone was accounted for: my brother, parents, and grandparents.
I became scared and quiet for the rest of the evening. I have no idea what ‘knocked’ back at me. Was the home haunted? I don’t know; I chalk it up to another ‘paranormal encounter.’
Another Supernatural Story
I lived in Baltimore City for a few years, between 3 and 5 years old, just south of Patterson Park. I know many horror movies occur in the woods or secluded areas, but Cities have more paranormal activity than any other place on earth.
I lived in a rowhome and had many friends and extended family nearby.
I loved living in the city as a kid because I was never bored. I had friends galore, and I could go to several of my neighbors’ homes, feed me, or take me to the ‘corner store’ and buy myself candy.
I loved playing with my older brother and friends when I wasn’t doing those things.
Across the street from my house was a vacant home, which many neighborhood children claimed was haunted and full of ghosts.
My parents told me the house was empty, and I believed them. One sunny summer day, my friend Joey was sitting on the front steps of the vacant ghost home, peering through the ‘mail slot.’ Back then, city homes didn’t have mailboxes.
Instead, they had a cutout in the door with a spring released closer so air and small rodents couldn’t enter. I walked over to Joey and asked him what he was looking at. He said there was a ghost in there, and I said I wanted to have a look.
He said, go ahead, and I sat down on the steps, flipped up the mail slot, and looked in. The front was the living room in these homes, followed by a dining room in the middle, and the back end was the kitchen.
As I looked back in the kitchen, I saw a being, who appeared to be in a transparent sheet, walk from the left side to the right side of the kitchen and disappear behind the wall. Behind the kitchen wall is a door leading to the basement.
I immediately released the mail slot lever, ran back to my house across the street, and went inside to tell Mom what I saw.
She laughed and didn’t believe me. This was not the last paranormal encounter I had in the city. We moved to Baltimore County a few years later, but I still have dreams about Baltimore City and its paranormal activity.
