Through out my life, I occasionaly have inexplainable "spiritual visits" that I do not understand. I will use this blog as a reference to track these experiences which happen about once or twice a year. I do not remember the dates exactly but the memories of the occurance are extremely vivid.

3/9/2004: Hopedale, MA: This particular event all happened within 3 seconds, leaving me in aww. I am starring at my radio lights with the main lights off trying to go to sleep. A male figure with a bright light behind him appears from the ceiling and began walking towards me with his hand extended. He was smiling but it was so unexpected my reaction was to defend myself.  My initial reaction is to slap the man's hand away. As I am punching through the air I hit my touch lamp. The lamp flew across the room and illuminated from the contact. As the lamp flew the length of the cord was too short and it became disconnected from the socket and hit the other side of the room. It was again complete darkness and the lamp was in pieces.  I sprang out of bed and turned on switch light. It all happened within 3 seconds and I was left completeley puzzled.

11/8/2005: Hopedale, MA: I am having a dream. I feel like I am back in time (1500's) , as I am wielding a sword, and coming across an old stone house in the middle of the woods at night. I have been traveling for some time, seeking shelter. I peek into the window to find a disgusting scene. Some type of creature is stuffing a dead body. The creature appears to be half human. I am not scared and immediately break into the house to kill the creature. After a decent battle I chop off the head of the creature with my sword. Right when this happens, in real life I feel a powerful, hurtful scratch slowly traveling from the top of my neck down to my lower back. As if someone with long nails was digging into my back. It was so painful, I arched my back forward to avoid the pain. By the time the scratch is over I am wide awake. I walk into the bathroom and look into the mirror. The scratch is real. It is difficult for me to go back to sleep.

6/12/2006: Dartmouth, MA: My girlfriend at the time is Laury David. She is sleeping next to me against the wall, and I am facing the wall with her in between. The lights are off but it is very visible in the room from streetlights outside. As I am laying there, I feel an incredible need to turn around as if someone was watching me. As I turn around I distintly see a black figure kneeling next to bed directly next to me. It is black and appears to be a half decayed human body, watching me. I than shuved my  thumb and index finger into the orbital and mouth of the creature. I than turned around and shook my girlfriend so she would awake. I told her what happened. She did not believe me and called me crazy, than went back to sleep. This experience was different than most of the others because I was never asleep. After this experience I got an overwhelming feeling that this was my friend Ryan Nolan, visiting me for the last time, who had passed away recently.

7/3/2009: Tampa, FL: 6:00pm: I am taking a nap. In my dream I am looking down at the world from space. In real life I hear bang of Lightning and I am accelerated from space to my bedroom where my body is feels like it was struck by lightning. When I awoke I feel like I had experienced alot but time had not moved.  I only remember an long adventure but no details on what happened. (This is were it gets weird) After I aweoke I tried to open my eyes but could not. I was sitting up in my bed trying with my hands to open my eyes. I was getting scared and tried to use my hands to open my eye lids. It took me about 3 minutes to get them open. My eyelashes felt very "crusted" over and my only explanation is that I cryed in my sleep and when the tears dryed, they crusted my eyelashes together. The entire experience was very moving, in a positive way.

12/26/2010: Tampa, FL: While Sleeping, I am having a terrible nightmare about an invisible creature that can latch onto someones head and crush it. I am playing with friends as a child in my old backyard. the creature is crushing skulls of those that it could capture while I was able to run away from it. I am able to get away because I know the neighborhood so well. Towards the end of the dream. I feel something heavy pushing down on my wrist, in real life. I realize that I am dreaming and what I felt on my wrist was not a dream. I wake up immidiately and turn on the light. The feeling on my wrist was that of a paw from a 150 pound dog.
