Now, on this segment of The
0:02
Shadow Files with K-Town.
0:04
Ghost spirits and types
0:06
of hauntings. What are
0:08
ghosts, spirits, and hauntings?
0:11
What are the different
0:13
types of these entities? So
0:15
we can make things easier
0:17
to understand. Let's briefly
0:20
talk about our universe,
0:22
dimension, and plane of
0:24
existence. If we have a
0:26
better understanding of
0:28
our surroundings, We can
0:30
better understand these phenomena
0:32
and how it's possible for
0:35
ghosts, spirits, and hauntings
0:37
to exist in our world. Scientific
0:39
facts and leading theories are
0:42
great places to start. First,
0:44
the universe. The universe is
0:46
made of energy. Everything around you
0:49
is energy. When broken down
0:51
to its purest form of
0:53
subatomic particles, including yourself. Energy
0:55
cannot be totally destroyed. It
0:58
just changes form. When you
1:00
are born, a spark of
1:03
energy brings you into this
1:05
world and within our universe
1:07
are other dimensions or planes
1:10
of existence. There are many
1:12
doorways to these worlds and black
1:14
holes will soon prove this.
1:17
Astro physicists agree that black
1:19
holes exist and we now
1:21
have the technology to
1:23
create them with particle
1:25
accelerators like the large hadron
1:27
collider. near Geneva. A black
1:29
hole is a perfect example
1:32
of how anything is possible
1:34
in this universe because all
1:36
the laws of physics go out
1:38
the window when you reach the center
1:40
which is called the singularity.
1:42
Leading scientists agree the singularity
1:45
is a very likely place
1:47
to enter another dimension or
1:49
plane of existence. This gives
1:52
a great argument that doorways
1:54
to other worlds do exist.
1:56
and how such phenomena like
1:58
ghosts spirit and hauntings
2:00
are scientifically possible on
2:02
our dimensional frequency in
2:05
a universe made of
2:07
energy. Everything in this
2:09
universe has energy. Everything
2:11
in this universe has purpose.
2:13
Everything in this universe is
2:16
connected. Next, let's discuss ghosts.
2:18
What are ghosts? Our theory
2:21
is that ghosts are the energy
2:23
of a person or animal's soul.
2:25
that once lived. Ghost exists
2:27
in between our dimension and
2:29
the next, like a radio
2:31
signal that isn't quite coming
2:33
in clear on our dimensional
2:36
frequency. They have not fully
2:38
crossed over to the spirit realm.
2:40
There are multiple reasons why
2:42
ghosts make themselves known to
2:44
us, and how they interact with
2:47
the living is usually
2:49
determined by what personality
2:51
characteristics they had. when
2:54
they were alive. Ghost personality
2:56
characteristics. Ghost were once human,
2:58
just like you and I. It is
3:00
believed that you keep your personality
3:03
characteristics when you die.
3:05
For example, if you were
3:07
an evil person in life, you will be
3:09
the same as a ghost. Mean spirited
3:11
ghosts usually torment the
3:14
living at haunted locations.
3:16
Feeding off the victim's fear energy.
3:18
The same goes for good people. If
3:21
you were a loving person in life.
3:23
You will be a loving
3:25
ghost. Good-spirited ghosts are
3:27
usually very protective of
3:29
families that live in
3:31
haunted locations. Remember not all
3:33
ghosts are bad. Why ghosts
3:36
are here? There are multiple
3:38
reasons why ghosts make themselves
3:40
known to us and why they
3:42
are still here. However, there doesn't
3:44
have to be a particular
3:46
reason. Sometimes they just happen.
3:49
It can happen to anyone.
3:51
and remains a mystery
3:54
as to why crisis
3:56
apparitions are usually a
3:59
one-time paranormal
4:01
experience. When a ghost is
4:03
seen at the time of its death by
4:05
family and friends as a way
4:07
of saying goodbye or giving important
4:10
information. For example, you're
4:12
watching TV in your
4:14
living room after visiting
4:16
your mother in the
4:18
hospital and turn around to
4:20
see her standing over you smiling
4:23
and then she vanishes a second
4:25
later the phone rings. And when
4:27
you answer, her doctor tells you
4:29
she has just passed. If someone
4:31
visits you more than once
4:34
to give you information or
4:36
comfort, that is a good sign
4:38
they have progressed to
4:40
your self-appointed guardian angel.
4:43
We will get more in
4:45
depth about this in the
4:47
spirit section. Ghosts that are
4:49
unaware that they are deceased.
4:51
Go about their business as if
4:53
they are still living. They do not
4:56
understand they have passed. A
4:58
great example is the
5:00
movie The Others. The ghosts
5:02
portrayed in the movie believe
5:04
the living are the ghosts.
5:06
Sometimes ghosts can't see the
5:08
living but instead feel their
5:11
presence. This can cause stress on
5:13
the ghost as well as
5:15
the living and happens often
5:17
when people move into the
5:19
house of a recently deceased
5:21
person. Usually an elderly
5:23
person who lived and died alone
5:26
in the final years. The ghost
5:28
sees the newcomers as invaders.
5:30
But simply talking to the
5:32
ghost about their death can
5:34
help them cross over. Next,
5:37
ghosts. With unfinished business,
5:39
ghosts with unfinished business
5:41
can linger in this
5:43
world for numerous reasons.
5:45
Like a father, making sure
5:47
his children. succeed in
5:49
life despite his sudden
5:51
death. There are many
5:53
cases involving victims of foul
5:56
play unable to cross over
5:58
until justice has been served.
6:00
Another example would be of
6:02
a recently deceased lover making
6:04
sure their partner finds happiness
6:06
and moves on. ghosts that
6:09
are trapped or lost. These
6:11
types of ghosts usually know
6:13
they are dead, but for
6:15
one reason or another cannot
6:17
cross over yet. Some may
6:20
fear moving on because of
6:22
the person they were in
6:24
life or they fear leaving
6:26
what is familiar to them.
6:28
Some ghosts may be trapped
6:31
in fear. Some ghosts may
6:33
be trapped in fear. and
6:35
held captive by another ghost
6:37
or evil spirit, like in
6:39
a murder suicide haunting. Other
6:41
ghosts may be trapped at
6:44
a location because an evil
6:46
spirit or ghost may have
6:48
drove them to suicide. Dark
6:50
entities feed off the fear
6:52
energy of ghosts in the
6:55
living. A common example of
6:57
a lost ghost could be
6:59
someone who died abroad and
7:01
is now trying to find
7:03
their way home. vengeful ghosts.
7:05
An example of a vengeful
7:08
ghost would be if a
7:10
woman was murdered by a
7:12
male and now as a
7:14
ghost only torments or attacks
7:16
males when they are present
7:19
at the haunted location. Hungry
7:21
ghosts. In Chinese slash Hindu
7:23
Buddhist belief the hungry ghosts
7:25
are said to come back
7:27
to this realm for reasons
7:30
such as to visit their
7:32
families or old homes. In
7:34
Taoism religion, hungry ghosts are
7:36
deceased people that in one
7:38
way or another did not
7:40
find everything they needed in
7:43
the afterlife. These ghosts will
7:45
come back to feed off
7:47
victims fear energy. It is
7:49
believed that leaving offerings of
7:51
food, drink and money will
7:54
appease them so they will
7:56
leave in peace. Residual ghosts
7:58
usually live out their final
8:00
hours over and over again.
8:02
Residuals most often show no
8:04
intelligence. or self-awareness. They will
8:07
go right past or through
8:09
you without a flinch. Many
8:11
believe it was their emotional
8:13
energy that left an imprint
8:15
or recording on our dimensional
8:18
frequency like a tape recorder.
8:20
One example would be of
8:22
someone getting hit by a
8:24
train on a full moon
8:26
night and now every time
8:29
there's a full moon the
8:31
ghost is seen walking the
8:33
tracks. Child ghosts. Child ghosts
8:35
are the ghost of children
8:37
that have passed for one
8:39
reason or another. This type
8:42
of paranormal activity is very
8:44
sad for obvious reasons. These
8:46
types of ghosts are usually
8:48
lonely and seek attention. Inadvertently,
8:50
terrifying people by making toys
8:53
or other objects move. Some
8:55
believe these ghosts are actually
8:57
demons in disguise. Ghostly sounds
8:59
and smells. Ghostly sounds like
9:01
knocking screams. Music. Moaning and
9:03
voices are quite common around
9:06
haunted locations. These sounds can
9:08
be residual or intelligent. Knocking
9:10
is an old way of
9:12
communicating with the dead. Ghostly
9:14
smells are also a very
9:17
common occurrence in areas with
9:19
high levels of paranormal activity
9:21
and they can be residual
9:23
or intelligent as well. Perfumes,
9:25
cigar, smoke and food smells
9:28
are just a few of
9:30
the scents. One may encounter.
9:32
Beware of foul smells like
9:34
rotting garbage or sulphurs, to
9:36
name a few. Foul smells
9:38
like these could mean dark
9:41
entities, demons, or very evil
9:43
ghosts are making themselves known.
9:45
Animal ghosts. Animal ghosts are
9:47
the ghosts of deceased animals
9:49
and can remain in this
9:52
world for numerous reasons. Like
9:54
their human counterparts, animal spirit
9:56
guides are different than animal
9:58
ghosts. Living ghosts. A living
10:00
ghost can be when the
10:02
soul leaves the body of
10:05
the still living. This can
10:07
happen if some kind of
10:09
trauma took place and a
10:11
piece of you was left
10:13
behind or imprinted in some
10:16
way at a location. These
10:18
rare types of ghosts can
10:20
show intelligence and self-awareness. A
10:22
doppelganger is different because it's
10:24
an exact copy of yourself.
10:27
Doppelgangers can be harmless or
10:29
omens of death. The harmless
10:31
doppelgangers... are oftentimes an unconscious
10:33
projection of a person's will.
10:35
The entity is visible to
10:37
others, but the projector rarely
10:40
sees it. This is a
10:42
good thing, because it is
10:44
believed that when a person
10:46
witnesses their own doppelganger, it
10:48
then becomes a omen of
10:51
their impending death. Ghost vessel,
10:53
ghost ship, phantom vehicle, or
10:55
ghostly object. Phantom vehicle may
10:57
refer to a ghostly or
10:59
haunted vehicle. Also for insurance
11:01
purposes, a vehicle that causes
11:04
death, injury or damage without
11:06
making physical contact. These types
11:08
of ghostly phenomena could be
11:10
due to the enormous amounts
11:12
of human energy that has
11:15
passed through these vehicles when
11:17
they were in service and
11:19
can be very disturbing because
11:21
they are usually connected to
11:23
tragic events. For example, a
11:26
ship carrying thousands of passengers.
11:28
throughout his carrier could store
11:30
tones of energy and eventually
11:32
take on a type of
11:34
life of its own. There
11:36
are many reports of ghost
11:39
ships seen by sailors. Many
11:41
are apparitions of ships that
11:43
have sunk wrecked the ground
11:45
or disappeared years or centuries
11:47
ago. Some sailors say citing
11:50
a ghost ship foretells of
11:52
impending doom on the high
11:54
seas. Many apparitions of trains,
11:56
cars, and carriages have been
11:58
seen as well. According to
12:00
the legend, every April 29th,
12:03
Lincoln's ghost. train is seen.
12:05
The funeral car carrying the
12:07
body of Abraham Lincoln rumbles
12:09
through the town of Urbana,
12:11
Ohio. Following the route, it
12:14
took back in 1865 when
12:16
it carried the president's body
12:18
back to Springfield, Illinois. Spirits.
12:20
A spirit is a generic
12:22
term used to describe any
12:25
entity that was never human
12:27
like angels, demons, or other
12:29
gods. However, a human spirit
12:31
is the soul of a
12:33
person who has crossed over
12:35
and is not bound to
12:38
this world like ghosts. Angels.
12:40
Angels are spirits aligned with
12:42
God. They are positive energy
12:44
beings that were never human.
12:46
Some believe there is a
12:49
hierarchy of angels, each with
12:51
a specific purpose. Different ways
12:53
to evoke these spirits have
12:55
been around for centuries. and
12:57
they will protect you from
12:59
dark entities as well as
13:02
the living. It is said,
13:04
an angel's aura is so
13:06
bright that it gives the
13:08
appearance of wings. Angels represent
13:10
the good and positive forces
13:13
of the universe. However, they
13:15
are very powerful beings that
13:17
are not to be trifled
13:19
with. Guardian angels. Guardian angels
13:21
are believed to be human
13:23
spirits. Usually an ancestor sent
13:26
to guide and protect you
13:28
along life's journey. It is
13:30
said that a person can
13:32
have more than one guardian
13:34
angel depending on someone's sensitivity
13:37
to the spirit world as
13:39
well. Animal spirit guide. Native
13:41
Americans believe that when you
13:43
are born an animal spirit
13:45
enters your body. They could
13:48
be a type of animal
13:50
guardian of your soul and
13:52
will protect you along life's
13:54
journey. Demons. Demons are negative
13:56
non-human spirits, commonly used in
13:58
Judeo. Christian terms as fallen
14:01
angels. The term also applies
14:03
to many different gods and
14:05
spirits in other cultures that
14:07
predate Judeo-Christian ones. It is
14:09
believed there is a hierarchy
14:12
with demons as well ranging
14:14
from the very powerful to
14:16
lesser ones. Demons are very
14:18
deceptive about concealing their true
14:20
identity often disguising themselves as
14:22
harmless spirits. or ghosts. A
14:25
demon can appear as many
14:27
entities to confuse its targets
14:29
and to extract more fear
14:31
energy out of victims by
14:33
making their numbers seem greater.
14:36
However, they usually attack in
14:38
waves, starting with the lesser
14:40
demons leading the way. Once
14:42
the victim has been morally
14:44
broken down over time, the
14:47
more powerful demons step in
14:49
for the possession. It is
14:51
important to obtain the demon's
14:53
name. as this will help
14:55
the exorcist or shaman in
14:57
the exorcism or cleansing. Foul
15:00
smells like rotting garbage and
15:02
sulfur are telltale signs of
15:04
a demonic presence. The sounds
15:06
of animal grunting are associated
15:08
as well and their appearance
15:11
can range from a dark
15:13
shadow form, human-like form, to
15:15
half animal-like creatures. Never taunt
15:17
or challenge a demon unless
15:19
properly trained. as this usually
15:21
increases the violence at a
15:24
haunted location. Demons are evil
15:26
in human supernatural beings of
15:28
intelligence, wit and power. They
15:30
have the ability to invade
15:32
our homes, attach themselves to
15:35
objects and humans, and cause
15:37
both mental and emotional torture
15:39
by attacking or possessing humans.
15:41
They can morph into any
15:43
shape they wish from humans
15:46
to animals. before your eyes.
15:48
They are neither male nor
15:50
female, but will change to
15:52
whatever meets their need at
15:54
the time. Demons are most
15:56
commonly seen as black masses
15:59
standing in doorways or in
16:01
corners of the room. They
16:03
have a hatred for mankind
16:05
and think of us as
16:07
lowly and stupid most demonic
16:10
entities like a challenge and
16:12
are incredibly conniving. They may
16:14
have you believing they are
16:16
good spirits or may appear
16:18
to have gone away only
16:20
to confront you again at
16:23
the least expected and most
16:25
vulnerable moment. Their main goal.
16:27
is to break down a
16:29
person's free will in order
16:31
to make way for possession.
16:34
Beginning as oppression. This can
16:36
take days, months, or years.
16:38
But time is of no
16:40
concern to them. They don't
16:42
give up easily. Elementals. Elementals
16:45
are non-human spirits. With a
16:47
connection to the elements of
16:49
earth, water, air, and fire.
16:51
They are also referred to
16:53
an older order. gods, fairies,
16:55
and elves in other cultures.
16:58
Shadow ghosts or spirits. Shadow
17:00
ghosts or spirits, this is
17:02
a type of spirit or
17:04
ghost. This phenomena could just
17:06
be a type of form
17:09
either entity can take, but
17:11
no one is certain. Their
17:13
appearance can range from dark
17:15
gray to black, and height
17:17
varies from one foot to
17:19
six feet or above. They
17:22
can be seen as dark
17:24
smoke, like figures. or blobs.
17:26
Next, shadow people. Not much
17:28
is known of shadow people.
17:30
But as the technology improves,
17:33
the paranormal community is getting
17:35
more and more evidence of
17:37
their existence. Some call them
17:39
watchers or observers from another
17:41
dimension. Shadow people may not
17:44
be ghosts or spirits. Some
17:46
are described as tall, black,
17:48
humanoid-looking beings with red eyes
17:50
and no necks. Others. are
17:52
described as black masses, hauntings,
17:54
a haunting is when paranormal
17:57
activity. has been occurring for
17:59
a lengthy period of time
18:01
in a certain location. An
18:03
area can become haunted for
18:05
many reasons, not just untimely
18:08
deaths or tragic accidents. Sometimes
18:10
an area can become haunted
18:12
because it was the favorite
18:14
place of a person who
18:16
has passed. People do not
18:18
have to die at a
18:21
location for it to become
18:23
haunted and it can technically
18:25
happen anywhere. The architecture of
18:27
a structure of a structure.
18:29
The minerals in the land,
18:32
underground springs, and other water
18:34
sources can have a major
18:36
factor as well. For example,
18:38
you should never build structures
18:40
on top of limestone or
18:43
water tables because limestone retains
18:45
energy and water is a
18:47
conductor of energy. This belief
18:49
dates back over 5,000 years
18:51
in ancient China and other
18:53
areas in the region. Haunted
18:56
can refer to a person.
18:58
object or place that has
19:00
a ghost or spirit attached
19:02
to it. Haunted objects can
19:04
be anything from jewelry to
19:07
an old piano and often
19:09
have an aura in photos.
19:11
Sometimes it can be a
19:13
person that's haunted and not
19:15
the area. Residual haunting. An
19:17
imprint left at a location
19:20
that repeats itself over and
19:22
over again. Residual ghosts usually
19:24
live out their final hours
