Lady in White

The legends of The lady in White has been past down through time. Most men I have spoken to have either heard the story or experience something first hand. Even the first episode of the popular television series Supernatural, had a rendition of the Lady in White. That first episode scared me so much I never watched another episode.

However, I heard a story that was even more frightening. A friend of mine told me about an incident involving her brother. Let's call him Jake. Jake and his friends being in their twenties, went out to a night club and had a few drinks. They left late, and being in a mood for anything dangerous, took the long road home. An isolated road, that not many people used at night, due to the stories rumours of usual experiences after dark. Shortly after getting on to the road, they saw a woman walking at the side of it. She was bare foot and wore a flowing dress. They slowed down as they past her, she was beautiful, almost ethereal. Being non believers in the supernatural and intoxicated they, rolled down their windows and spoke to the women. She implored them to get out of the car, and when they refused she grabbed hold of Jake's arm and tried to pull him out through the window. Something about her strength and screams terrified the boys so they drove off, holding onto Jake. Looking back, they could not see the woman. She had simply vanished, or so they thought. Later, when Jake got home and went to bed, he he felt something sit on the side of his bed. He got off the bed terrified and ran to the bedroom door. The door wouldn't open. He scream for his mother, she also tried the door, and when it did not open she began saying a prayer. The door finally opened, but Jake still felt an awful presence in his room. His mother sat on the bed and read from the Bible most of the night until a weight was lifted of the bed and Jake could finally relax and sleep.

It appears the Lady in White is usually only seen by men, so a 'word to the wise' guys, when you see a beautiful lady walking along a desolate road, don't stop. Just drive away as fast as you can.

A Love Spell

Image
Acknowledgements to lovespells.org.uk for the image Love spells are something we are all familiar with. We have heard about them in faery tales, wished we could cast one on our first crush, and been warned about them by superstitious relatives. I even found a book with love spells in the local library. The cover was pretty but the inside contained some scary stuff. (I never borrowed it, too much bad mojo.) Talking about the existence of spells, with a work colleague last month, she told me about a love spell that had been cast on her brother. When my colleague lived in Albania,( lets call my college Claire ,her brother Dave and the girl Maree) her younger brother had a very possessive girlfriend. The girl was completely in love, and utterly obsessed with Dave. She never let him out of her sight. Needless to say, she went almost everywhere with him, and got angry if he ate at his mother's house when she had prepared dinner. Like with all young men, the attention at first was

Born with a Caul(Veil)

Image
Acknowledgements to crystalinks.com for the image A caul, is generally a piece of the amniotic sac that covers the baby's face during delivery. Babies born as such are said to have special powers. This belief has prevailed over the ages. It has been said that Jesus was born with a caul, however there is no documented evidence of this available to ordinary scholars.  Also it was believed that a person in possession of a caul would not drown. Consequently the sale of cauls was profound during the 15-18th centuries. In Charles Dicken's book David Copperfield , the protagonist is said to be born with a caul and is present during the sale of it. A friend of mine, Sam, was born with a caul. The nun present at his birth asked for this veil, which currently remains in the safe keeping of the church, near the hospital grounds. Bearers of the caul are said to be intuitive and sometimes psychic. Sam has often said, he could see things that others could not. A flicker of a shadow see

Angels and Demons

Image
Acknowledgements to hairstyle-artist-indonesia.blogspot.com for the image.  If you believe in God, surely you must believe in Angels and Demons. The question is though; are they here on earth? Can we see them? Will they help or harm us? The following is a story from a nursing student working in an old hospital. Night duty, has been the the fear of most new nurses. Training hospitals are old, creaky and pretty much scary at night. Worst of all, is the one hour break that the 'in-charge nurse' takes, and then you're alone. Alone with the sleeping patients and the sounds of the night. The night-shift for this young nurse was pretty ordinary, buzzers to answer and the usual rounds. A cat came into that night, which was always a bad sign. There have been legends, of cats being 'The Guardians of the Gates of the Underworld' . They apparently send the creatures of the night back to where they come from. The young nurse, chased the cat out of the ward . After her shi
