I had a ghost encounter in the 1980s in my first apartment which was a basement in a house in Queens NYC.
I was sitting on my coach watching TV, “Moonlighting” was on which was an old show starring Bruce Willis and Cybil Shepard when all of a sudden I felt this hand squeeze my face, all five fingers as if someone pointed the palm of their hand at my face and put all five fingers on my face and squeezed as real as day whereas I screamed my brains out practically jump through the ceiling and ran out the door and down the block. No I wasn’t drinking or smoking wacky tabacky nor was I sleeping. Maybe a nerve got pinched and gave the sensation> I don’t know, but wow, it was as real as any real person doing that to me.
A few months later I was in my bedroom and heard someone pushing buttons on my microwave “beep... beep beep”, nobody was there of course and instead of flipping out I walked slowly towards the microwave and looked at the buttons. But it wasn’t a ghost. It was cockroaches inside the buttons shorting it out. Yes the place was that disgusting and I still used it to heat up food lol.
Telling people of spiritual or paranormal encounters elicits all kinds of joking, insults, and dismissals. I’ve heard a lot of them and have a few stories myself, that are quite pointless to publish. But there is more to the realm than the eye can see, most certainly. Spiritual mysteries.
Louie DePalma had tough cockroach living in his dispatch cage on Taxi.
I couldn’t help but think of that.
