Actually, has anyone ever wondered why we have spirits on earth? I mean, after death, aren't they all supposed to be in the nether world? Or could it be th...

Hahahaha.......

You giving me ideas on what questions to ask the nurse if I am ever warded in a hospital.

Excuse me nurse. Whose the person standing beside you or behind you?

Or start pretending to speak to someone who isn't really there.

Later you really see one and they don't believe you

I think usually is see the same thing ba like what Rhonda says

In European folklore, the witching hour is the time when supernatural creatures such as witches, demons and ghosts are thought to be at their most powerful, and black magic at its most effective. This hour is typically midnight, and the term may now be used to refer to midnight, or any late hour, even without having the associated superstitious beliefs. The term "witching hour" can also refer to the period from midnight to 3am.

Pinky, you remember my classic encounter, right? The one where more than one of us experienced the same thing at the same place? I think it was five or six of us. That was the first time I believed that what I've seen were not figments of my fertile imagination but it was real because how do you explain five - six people reporting seeing the same thing sitting at the same place and all during night duty? I tell that classic tale to my nurse friends here and they all get spooked out too!

Most of my encounters happen around that time too. I believe it's called the witching hour. Why 3 am? I believe it's to mock the holy trinity.

I am very new to this, but I just had an experience that has me a little nervous and scared. A few days ago, actually it was Sunday during the day, I was extremely tired from moving into my new home and I mean brand new, no one has ever lived there before. Anyways I fell asleep about 2:30pm I was in a deep sleep and suddenly I felt like someone pushed my feet to where I was in a fetal position, but on my back, I felt myself struggling and trying to pull my covers off me and whoever or whatever it was, had a hold of my feet and was telling "I have you now" I tried pulling and kicking and yelling my brother's name out twice and nothing. Shortly at about 4pm I woke up and I was a little weirded out, but ok. I didn't discuss this with anyone. So then last night I awoke at exactly 3am, I looked at my cell phone and yes it was 3am, I freaked out, I turned on lights and turned the volume up on my TV as well. I was so scared and I didn't fall back to sleep till 4:45am. Nothing happened, but I did get so scared. What is this??? I'm thinking I should go speak to a priest.

It is called 'sleep Paralysis' no need to see a priest or a medium you are OK.

We're not so easy to fool one, k! If one of my patients use this trick, I'll ask if they need an injection to help them sleep.

Bummer!!!

But I don't think I stupid enough to believe that, don't think nurses are authorized to give injections without doctors approval.

Maybe I start singing those 50s chinese songs when you walk out of the room, stop singing when you walk in.

I think, we don't have the '3rd eye' so we only see shadows, not the full-on visions! Heng ah!!

Sorry ah, I'm experienced enough to differentiate between ghostly singing from the nether world and someone karaoke'ing!

Doctors sometimes write 'prn' (when necessary) drug orders for patients so we won't give those medications / injections until the need arises. I think the use of meds is much stricter in Singapore. Here in Australia, biangz... sometimes I feel like I'm a waitress for the drug addicts.

Arh yes....the police officers on ground patrols use the term 'witching hour' too.

My ghost encounters are usually not happening at hospitals. Or possession encounters, they usually happens during police patrols.

Rhonda SG

Yeah... or Bear calls it 'narcolepsy'.

I think it's when you kinda wake up when you are still in REM or something so you're conscious, but not fully awake. So you can 'see' things, but your eyes aren't open, you can hear and feel things, but you cannot move yet. It's like you're suspended in the world between sleep and wakefulness. Can be quite scary.

I used to get that too, it was in my old house.

I doubt it's sleep paralysis (when your mind wakes while your body is still sleeping), because when I moved house, this problem stopped immediately. The only other time I had this encounter in the new house was during 7th month, after that, no more encounters.

If it's sleep paralysis, it's biological and it would have persisted in my new house too.

When I was in the old house, I used to go out very late. Sometimes me and the neighbourhood kids will play hide and seek in the old Toa Payoh Hospital, we even hid outside the morgue.

During one of my "your so called sleep paralysis", I heard a Malay man chanting.

Short Ninja SG

so you never knew the changi camp huh ? ....

Of course the old camp had some ghostly sightings and encounters of the weird kind but it didnt happen to me.

maurizio13 SG

Yeah... or Bear calls it 'narcolepsy'.

Did you watch "Awake" starring Jessica Alba?

Quite an interesting show. Maybe you shouldn't watch since you are a nurse, might give you some weird ideas.

where was the old formation camp ?

Hmm... Actually, sometime around Oct 2007, I started to see this dark figure in my home on certain nights. It scared the bejesus outta me! Twice I went to sleep and felt someone patting my mattress three times - Pat! Pat! Pat!! I was so frightened, it took some time before I opened my eyes and I had to whisper to whatever it was to just leave me alone, I mean no harm. I didn't exactly see 'it', but something told me it was a mischievous little boy-ghost.

I was so frightened with the dark figure I constantly saw in my living room, I went to seek help through various channels. Finally, someone told me that I had met a new friend recently and he's a very sad soul because he had associated himself with an ex-girlfriend who used to dabble in the dark arts and by associating with her, a dark spirit had clung to him and when I associated with him, I brought that spirit home with me! No wonder everytime I visited him at his place, I could sense an aura of doom and misery and I just felt his place was 'dark', not as in dim lighting but it was just ... 'dark'.

Heng ah whatever she taught me to do seemed to solve the problem.

I kenna once at my old place during the 7th month before

I woke up drenched in sweat and I was blasting my air-con too

I could hear someone talking to me in a foreign language in my ear

It sounded very urgently and desperate and I couldn't move or scream so I prayed and it just faded away

I went to take a shower coz I was totally soaked through in a 20oC air-con room :x

Rhonda SG

Actually, speaking of possession, one of my Singapore nurse friends told me of her very frightening encounter with a patient and it was so creepy that all her colleagues also agreed that it was an undeniable case of possession.

Any books you can find on dream control , creative dreaming or how to understand the mind when the body is asleep might help you understand and overcome your fear better...then you can tell the chanting malay man to relac one ocrner and allow you proper rest.

was that the thing that was causing your sleeping problems ? ...

If I die from fright after watching it, I will return to haunt you, ah!

What's your address? Oh, nevermind... ghosts don't need addresses one... they have a built-in GPS!

elindra SG

Oh ya I know what you mean

Some places is just so 'Ying' that no matter how many lights you turn on, it just looks dark

I had the same experience in a hotel in Penang.

That night I slept with all the lights on coz the room feels weird

But nothing happened la or it means the ghost couldn't wake me up at all
