Paranormal sighting/spirits?!!?!?!?

Question

When my mom's uncle passed away one morning this month, i went out of our apartment and i saw a priest standing there. My mom's uncle was a priest but i never met him. I told this to my mom and she said he could've come to see me. Also, that day in school, i felt a strange feeling of a presence. I have heard my name being called when i was sleeping and no one in our house was up. Why is this? Is it possible that the shadow was my mom's uncle's spirit? Why did he come to see me? PLEASE HELP ME! I FEEL SCARED EVERYTIME I GET OUT THE DOOR! thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Many "paranormal" sightings are a result of people WANTING those things to be there.  In other words, you wanted to see a priest, so you saw a priest.  Have you ever seen "A Beautiful Mind?"  Same exact concept: seeing things that simply are not there.

Answer 2

mayb he just wanted to spend time with u so that u have some kind of memory of him... dont worry ....he'll be gone soon... just pray for him...

Answer 3

no, you seeing the preiest has probably got you paranoid. don't worry

Answer 4

to check up on you maybe, and it may not even be a ghost, but if it is you shouldnt have any reason to worry he just probally descided to pop in

Answer 5

Maybe he's visiting you because the two of you never met..and he wanted to get to know you a little. Tell him that he's scaring you. Maybe your mom could write to/email the church he attended and find out if anyone else has had visitations from him. I could say..if it's your uncle you shouldn't be scared...but I'm sure I would be too. Say some prayers for him. Maybe have a Mass said for him.

Answer 6

Your Uncle is probably with you. He only came to see you probably to make sure you and your mom were okay. Don't be scared, (1) He is a preist. Why would he hurt you? (2) He is family. He most likely would'nt hurt you. My grandfather is always checking up on us. I don't see him but I can feel he is there. Don't be alarmed. He wont hurt you.

Answer 7

Go to your Mom and tell her how you feel.Maybe she'll do what she should have the first time.Tell you there is no such things as ghosts.Even if there were your uncle would never hurt you.Your Mom probably didn't mean to,but she carelessly frightened you.

Answer 8

Hi, I came across your question and I thought maybe I could be of some help. I'm a paranormal investigator and have been studying the paranormal for close to ten (10) years now.

First off, let me say that feeling scared is only natural when you or anyone has had a paranormal experience. But, you must realize that spirits/ghosts cannot harm you.

Although, I'm not saying that all spirits/ghosts are good. That is far beyond the truth. Just like in life there are bad and evil people and in death there are bad ghosts and evil spirits. You must judge the situation accordingly like, "I do feel comfortable enough to try and speak with the spirit to see what it needs or wants?" OR "I just want the spirit to leave me alone, because I do not feel confortable at all with it around."

Second, if your mother has said it could have been her uncle just coming to visit you. It could be true, if you have never met him as you say. He could be just wanting to meet you and check on your mother.

And, if you felt a presence around you at school than he could have followed you to watch over you and make sure that you stayed safe. And to be honest, I believe that your mother did the right thing in telling you that what you saw could have been her uncle instead of saying, "That's total nonsense! You're old enough to know that there no such things as ghosts!"

As for your name being called out when you were sleeping. It could have been him trying to get your attention to say hello or something along those lines.

You really have nothing to fear if you have never felt threatned by its presence. And again, it is only natural to feel frightned at first or even several times after that.

Take it from me as I have been studying and investigating for several years. There is a big difference between feeling scared or feeling threatned. And I will be the first to admit that on my first few invesitgations that I have done with my team was very unnerving and only twice in all of the investigations we have done, have I ever felt threatned by something I couldn't see.

If you contiune to feel frightned by the presence. Sit down with your mother and tell her the way you feel and what you have seen. Include as many details as possible if you can when telling her what you saw. You and your mother be able to figure why her uncle has come to see you or figure out he needs.

I hope this has helped you in some small way. May you have the blessing of thousand angels.

Answer 9

just  recite  the  lords  prayer  . it  will  protect  u  and  u  will  stop  feeling  scared

Answer 10

So you left your apartment and a priest was just standing there?  What was she doing?  Just because there is a priest in your apartment complex doesn't mean she's a ghost of your uncle.  You should only be scared of seeing a priest if your name is Prince101.

People hear and see all sorts of things when sleeping.  These hallucinations are nothing more than dreams.

You felt a strange presence?  Well, "feeling" things like that means very little.  I can feel any number of ways  in any number of different situations or moods, but that doesn't mean what I'm feeling extends beyond my brain.

It sounds to me like you have ghosts on the brain.  You think of someone who has died and he magically appears.  You feel different, anxious, nervous due to a paranormal cause.  You dream something that everyone else dreams and jump to the conclusion there is something paranormal at work.  Seems like you're looking for things to call paranormal.

Answer 11

If you aren't too scared to ask, ask the voice, or the vision of the priest, who he is and what he wants.  He may or may not be your uncle, maybe anothe spirit altogether that is connected to you and thinks you may be able to help for whatever reason.

Because this 'spirit' is coming to you (and you may or may not know that others are seeing him too), you might have been chosen because of something you can do for him.

Do not be afraid, ask the spirit what it wants and if you do not receive a reply or cannot help it, send it on its way in love and light to whence it came.

My mother was child when she saw the spirit of her grandmother one night as she walked to an outside toilet on the farm that she lived on.  When she went back to the house and told her parents that her grandmother passed by and waved at her as she flew through the sky, her parents told her there she was dreaming, but the next day they got news that her grandmother had passed away the night before.

Many people all over the world have been visited by people who are in the throes of passing on.  It is not unusual, and certainly not something to be scared about, but if your uncle is 'hanging' around, maybe, just maybe, he has unfinished business and you are the only one who he feels can help him.

Don't be afraid, nothing and no-one can hurt you if you do not fear them.  Your own fear is the only thing that can impact on you, and mainly, it eats at your sanity so regain it by ditching the fear.

Answer 12

It very well could be ur mums uncle, you dont have to had met family members before for them to come and visit you in spirit form, he is prob just saying hello or likes to hang around to see whats going on in ur life and ur mums. the fact ur hearing ur name being called might mean they need your help or some kind of help to cross over properly if you believe then he'd most likely come to u for help, then again you could be just paranoid and ur minds playing tricks on you i use to get scared about that kind of stuff i still do but i always try and tell myself 'its just the wind' or 'its just the trees' whatever i can to make myself be rational. In a month or 2 if it hasnt stopped i suggest you get in contact with a medium so use can see who it is what they want and if they could leave u alone lol. anyway good luck
