TheMightyWings, Who or what was that

Who or what was that? ...

January 25, 2007, this day I recorded two eyebrow raising events in what I call, my journal of time.

The first, my company director ¹ called me around 18:40 hours, to state that the office will remain closed due to inadequate attendance of the employees. I was fast asleep when he had called me but this call breathed in the morning freshness in me. I work the night shifts and I go to bed around 09:00AM after returning from work. I fact that this will be a four day extended week end made me jump with joy as if I had received an unexpected bonus. January 26, was a national holiday, as it was the republic day and a Friday too. Saturday and Sunday was officially off.

I had fun for the rest of the evening and around 23:00 hrs I watched a TV show on the discovery channel, the shows name was " A Haunting". In this episode they showed how a paranormal investigator got possessed by a demon and had to be exorcised.

We have only one TV and that is kept in my room, which is in fact a multi purpose room, it is the dinning room cum living room and my sleeping room when I am around at night during the week end. It also has the house's main entrance. During a commercial break, I opened the main gate and stroll down the staircase for a smoke. I had done this many many times and there was nothing unusual. I generally avoid the balcony as it is in the room that my brother sleeps in and he is leading a normal life, going for MBA coaching in the day and sleeping at night. So I do not want to disturb him.

During the show, I saw how the possessed paranormal researcher was taken to a Church in Connecticut and exorcised. During the exorcism, the demon in her screamed the name "Baltzar" or some thing like that.

After the show was over I again got out in the stair case, light my cigarette, from then on I started to feel something very unusual, it suddenly became very cold. I felt as if some one was there further down the flight of steps. But when I turned, I saw or I think I saw no one, then out of the blue, there was a bluish white transparent "blob" that seemed to rise form the ground.

I whispered, "Is some one there?", definitely the word "some one" was meant for some kind of a spirit.

As if in a response, the electricity of the whole neighborhood went out and every thing was plunged into darkness. Our inverter, which is our back up source beeps five times when ever there is a power failure. This really scared the hell out of me. I threw the little smoked cigarette and ran to the house, I had been so fast that I heard the fifth beep of the inverter when I was in my room and I realized that I had literally flew over eleven steps.

The room felt very safe! My father is a very religious man, his prayers seemed to have been filling our dwelling with some kind of a positive energy. I felt all that energy come alive. As I pulled the iron collapsible gates of the door, it appeared as if I was pulling up an invisible shield. After closing the wooden door over it, I sat on my bed for a few minutes.

I dared to disturbed my brother and went through his room to the balcony to have another cigarette. After that I picked up my mobile as it has a camera too, I open the wooden door but I did not have the courage to open the collapsible gates. I took a picture that I am sharing with you all below. This was taken on January 26, 2007 at 00:18 hrs IST!

Who or what

In the picture above you will see my bed, pillows and the half opened wooden door of my house. I am still not sure what had actually happened.

Was this real or my mind was playing tricks on me? I did have an exprience of this kind earlier ², but then I knew who it was and why this happened to me.

Had "Baltzar" had come to say "Hi"?

Did the Television show had an effect on me?

If this was real, what ever had been there in the stair case, did it really want me to feel its presence and that is why some how my office was declared closed for the day?

I will really appreciate your inputs.
