Who has seen an apparition?

Who has seen an apparition, in full form?
Did you have any contact with the spirit?
What did they appear to look like?

I will reply to this myself. I saw quite a few apparitions as a child, some in color, some in black and white.
At times i see them now, just not in my home...lucky me.

I have! All the time! 1800's to 1910's clothing!

In the mid 60's we were living in VA Beach, VA....my husband was stationed at the Naval Air Station there for awhile. He had the duty and was not at home when this happened. It was about dark and I was getting our son (about a year old) ready for bed. The lights turned a weird yellowish color and I looked down the hall and there is the living room I saw an Indian circa late 1700's to early 1800's coming through one wall and gliding across our living room and out the opposite wall. He never noticed me....it appeared that he was stalking something as he had his bow ready. After he went through the wall the lights returned to normal. I have also seen my late step dad going from their carport to their house but from only the waist down and he disappeared as he reached the steps. There have been other times in my life that I have seen an apparition. No...I have never tried to have any contact with one.

Hi Carol,
That is really interesting. I myself saw Native Americans sitting around this big rock in the woods when I was younger. I just used to sit and watch them, they just went about their business, too. This is called a residual spirit. Even though once they all turned and looked at me, and there was about four or five of them. That scared me! Then, they just got up and walked down the old trail. There was an indian trail behind my house at the time.
I also saw an apparition of an older man in our house, again when i was younger, he was in black and white, hazy. 1800's clothing. He used to watch my baby brother sleeping in his crib, and when he saw that I noticed him, he made the "shhhhhh" motion with his fingers over his mouth. I went under my covers, and screamed. Then one night, I woke up and he was standing over me, next to my bed. I can still see his face so clearly now. He actually bent over me. i pulled the covers over my head, and my poor father took us from that room, and we slept in another bedroom. That room was always so very cold. I used to hear himwalking up and down the attic stairs, opening and closing doors, and I use to see the doorknobs turning. After we moved into our new bedroom, I would hear footsteps come all the way from the front of the house, into our room, and something invisible would sit on my bed. To say the least it was a extremely haunted house that we lived in, where many people had experiences. me, more than most. Another time there was a spare kitchen, and being a little girl, i loved to play house in there. One day i saw a woman, from the1930's, looking in the oven as if she were baking. She yelled at me" this is my kitchen, now stay out of it". You bet I did!! The house has a weird history, and being sensitive at that age was hard.

Most of what is experienced (seen, heard and felt) is 'residual'.. dont think of something as 'human' simply because it has that shape or speaks with something resembling a human voice. There are many parts to us. The most important parts fly back to where they belong after bodily separation but some other bits just hang around causing a nuisance..
