Hello does this also double as a horror genre club? Anyways I too have had some experiences (although questionable) with the paranormal.

Yes. Sorry I forgot to clarify this earlier (too little caffeine).

Count me in. Love horror. Being scared is addicting.

Added you as member. Welcome to the club...

I gotta say the horrorgenre is a lot better than what people think.

Agreed. Even though there is some trash, there is also a lot of treasure in there such as the writings of Poe or the films of James Wan.

Miss Wendighost August 26th, 2018 3:46 PM

Thinking about what to do for Halloween. Any ideas?

strangerhypno August 26th, 2018 5:48 PM

Watch a bunch of horror films.

strangerhypno August 26th, 2018 5:51 PM

I'd like to hear people's opinion on found footage films. Some are really good horror like REC and then there's the Paranormal activity series which are tolerable at best.

Is it even possible to hold a watch party in Pokecommunity?

strangerhypno August 29th, 2018 10:08 PM

We could like assign a horror movie to watch each day in October until Halloween and post our thoughts on it here.

Fairy August 30th, 2018 6:08 AM

I'd like to join! I'm not much into the paranormal myself but I am a HUGE horror movie buff. Super excited about Blumhouse's Halloween. n_n

strangerhypno August 30th, 2018 3:09 PM

Horror is probably the genre that I watch the most. My top favorite horror film is probably The Thing. The dread that comes from not knowing who's infected is effective. The practical effects are gruesome. Great acting. Great monster. Very rewatchable for me.

Fairy August 30th, 2018 3:50 PM

I have such a weak spot for hokey, silly, obtusely grotesque, horror classics.

Nightmare on Elm Street, Friday the 13th, Child's Play, Scream, Halloween... I mean, I can go on forever. You all know what I'm talking about. :)

I have a huge passion for the makeup and practical effects used in creating believable (and sometimes very uncanny) horror movies. The work that goes into transforming actors and filming the scenes is so fascinating to me. One of the many jobs I have on my bucket list is to create my own movie monster.

Just added you. Welcome!

strangerhypno August 31st, 2018 4:58 PM

I think for October I will watch a horror movie I haven't seen before every day and post my thoughts on it here. Hopefully I will find the time to do so.

Thinking for National Ghost Hunting Day (Sept. 29), I might try to run some apps in my house and post the results.

Question for New Members

What is the creepiest thing you had experienced on the job, supernatural or otherwise? For me, it started on a summer day at a local boathouse. Things were slow and the boss and another girl I worked with just left, so it was just me and another coworker who I will refer to as Dani. Me and Dani were behind a desk where the calculator for bank stuff was when the landline rang. I had answered with the usual greeting I had, but to no reply other than silence on the other end. After I asked if who or whatever was on the other end was still there, I hung up after ten seconds of silence.

Same thing happened five mintutes later. I have no idea if a person had dialed by accident or what.

Why would you want to attempt to find ghosts in your own home? I'd rather be blissfully ignorant of the ones in my house so I can sleep at night.

As for your mysterious phone call, I get that on my own phone a lot. It's most likely a silent call. Could be phone fraud as well. Luckily it happened on the landline and not your phone for you. I'm worried about people potentially stealing my personal info, that's way scarier than a ghost call.

To answer the question you posed, it is more of an experimental thing. I have been interested in the supernatural since I was a teenager. Likewise, I have had several bizarre experiences in my home such as what I think was sleep paralysis along with other strange things such as the one night I woke up at five in the morning to screaming despite everyone sleeping along with a strange photograph that I can upload later. On the same point as experimenting, I thought that it might be a way to celebrate the day from home (the nearest satellite is in West Virginia).

Okay, so this didn't happen at work, but I happen to live really close to NJ's Clinton Rd! A supposed paranormal hotspot. I went with a group of friends years and years ago. Now, I need to say that I don't actually believe anything paranormal happened, but it was still weird!

So late at night we had actually passed through the road very anticlimactically the first time. Nothing happened. But we had to go back through to head back home so we turned around and started driving. While we were driving a car turned in behind us and started speeding up really close, then slowing down really far back. This happened a few times before they dropped back and started speeding at us at a much, much quicker pace. Dude had to have been going 80mph. So we cut the lights and make a sharp turn, only for the car behind us to completely vanish.

Weird part is there was no way the car could have kept driving forward. Up ahead there was a big concrete slab that separates the road from a lake. There is absolutely no way that car could have stopped in time considering the speed they were going. Plus the sound of a car hitting concrete at 80mph - we would have heard it and seen it. It was literally right behind us. But yeah, never saw anything.

So logically i know it was probably some douche who knows the Clinton Road lore, knew that the only people out there that late at night would be to see spooky stuff, and deliberately messed with of for laughs. And my mind just morphed it into something much more frightening. I've been back to the road many times since at all times during the day and night without anything weird or bizarre happening. Car must have had some damn good breaks, haha.

Creepy thing that happened to me was thinking someone was home but it turns out they weren't. Sends chills down my spine because I swear somebody was there.

I sometimes have that feeling too sometimes, especially if I start to feel uncomfortable with no reason at all. Pretty freaky stuff.

strangerhypno September 9th, 2018 8:12 PM

Two new blockbuster horror films are all the rage it seems. The Nun and Halloween remake. Both have good reviews. I'm surprised with the remake though usually classic remakes get messed up except for soft reboots like Evil Dead. I want to see The Nun though. It seems like horror movie blockbusters are more popular than I imagined. No one really cares about the not big name horror flicks though unfortunately.
