*daylia* Folklore: Ghosts (48) RE: Folklore: Ghosts 29 May 08


He said if you meet a good ghost, the shivers go up your spine, but if you meet a bad one, the shivers gan doon. Or was it the other way round? In any case, I think I had shivers going both ways that night!

lol

I've never noticed whether the shivers go up or down, but feeling a cold draft is different than a disembodied entity. The former is like a cool breeze brushing the skin, and usually the whole room feels cold too -- the latter is like being flooded from the inside out with liquid ice, even in a warm room, even while standing next to a roaring fireplace. Turning up the heat, closing windows, wrapping self in blankets, even taking a hot bath doesn't help. As long as the "presence" is within your bioelectrical energy field (aura), it sucks your physical energy in a process rather like osmosis. Hence, the coldness. Doesn't necessarily mean the entity is malicious though -- its more like putting a
frozen (ie "dead") blanket over a hot (ie "living") one. The cold one will continue to "suck up" the heat, automatically, until both blankets are the same temp.

If the entity is malicious, other "symptoms" will manifest such as a bad smell, unexplained sudden pains etc in the body, burning eyes, pounding heart, butterflies in the stomach, bursts of dread, panic, despair, nightmares and night terrors, unfamiliar obsessive thoughts etc etc.

Anyway, enuf of this lifeless nattering! My hands are strangely FREEEEEEZING now    ;-)   -- and I'm going for a walk in the sunshine instead. After I change the strings on my guitar! Best to all,

daylia
