Hierophant Paranormal

These are questions that were left as comments on one of my videos. I will eventually make a video on this topic, but let's discuss them here.  You will hear me say in videos—and, in turn, on this blog—that we haven't proven ghosts exist yet. And we haven't. That's the goal of every paranormal investigator, and thus far, no one has been successful. So, everything put forward about the activity and behavior of ghosts is based on theory. I can answer these questions based on my own opinion. My opinion is not fact... because we haven't proven ghosts exist yet.  As to the first part, this always made me laugh. If you believe you are face to face with a demon, telling it you don't give it permission to follow you is really bizarre. A demon would be an incredibly evil and powerful entity... that doesn't care about your demands. If it is a spirit... if it is a kind spirit, they may listen out of respect. And I do believe most spirits you may interact with would be ...

 Let's start with a straight up history of this doll before I give any thoughts on the topic. Origins & Early History (1970s) In 1970 , a student nurse named Donna (or Deirdre ) received a Raggedy Ann doll as a birthday gift. She lived with a friend named Angie . Soon the doll allegedly began moving on its own and writing mysterious messages such as “Help Me” on parchment paper neither woman owned.   Their friend Lou reportedly experienced severe chest pain and mysterious bruises after encountering the doll in their apartment.   A medium claimed the doll housed the spirit of a young girl named Annabelle Higgins, who had died on the land. The nurses reportedly allowed the spirit entry, thinking it harmless.   Ed and Lorraine Warren were called in; they concluded the doll was manipulated by an “inhuman spirit” looking for recognition—and potentially a human host. It was seen as demonic. Eventually they took custody of the doll.   The Warrens’ Occ...

  So, one of the things I want to do in here and on my YouTube channel, is discuss topics like this. Hopefully, you will join the discussion in a friendly and thoughtful way, as well. But some of these questions, while often meant as a joke or a gotcha, actually put forth really good questions.  Well, why don't we ever see dinosaur ghosts?! As I will say 6000 times, we don't have scientific proof yet that any ghosts exist, so this, as any ghost encounter, goes down to faith and beliefs. And not just your beliefs in the paranormal, but your religious beliefs as well.  Let's take a look at the question. How do you know we haven't? There may be someone somewhere who believes they saw a dinosaur ghost at some point in time. I haven't personally heard these claims, but I'm sure someone out there truly believes they have had this experience.  Since we haven't proven ghosts exist, we don't know for certain how they work. It could very well be that we can...

  The Ouija board, often called a "spirit board" or "talking board," has fascinated and frightened people for over a century. Its mystique is deeply rooted in its history, which is as intriguing as the board's supposed ability to communicate with the dead. But is the Ouija board a genuine gateway to the spirit world, or is it merely a parlor trick that plays on our subconscious? Let's explore the origins of the Ouija board, its rise in popularity, and the ongoing debate about its authenticity. The Origins of the Ouija Board The history of the Ouija board can be traced back to the late 19th century, when spiritualism was sweeping across America and Europe. Spiritualism, a belief system that posited that the living could communicate with the dead, was particularly popular among the middle and upper classes. Séances, where mediums claimed to channel spirits, became common social events. In 1890, the Ouija board was introduced by Elijah Bond, a businessman, and ...
