Emotion ghosts?

[Sorrowsong]

The summer going into my junior year of highschool, an extreme amount of emotion had taken a place in my basement for 3 months straight. I'm hesitating to share why, but I'll do it because it might help with my question.

To cut to the chase, I spent three months without ever once leaving my basement with the exception of getting food or going to the bathroom. The reason for this was because there were two girls who were on the brink of killing themselves. The three of us were the cause of the sufferage, and I stayed online with them, trying to keep them calm and comfort them. It was an extreme emotional strain, and it drove me over the edge. Even though I don't have schizophrenia, I had some symptoms of it[which I would prefer not talking about]. Whenever the two girls weren't on, I would keep waiting around, terrfied of the fact that if I left, something would happen to them. Anyway, all you need to know is that it involved a lot of emotion, emotional strain, and a bit of insanity, if you wish to call it that.

Ever since then, and even after I had gotten over it, there always felt like there was some kind of presence behind me, watching me. It felt like an apparition, and a friend and I did some research. It does have many aspects of an apparition, but of course, I'm not sure who it is. My question is, is it possible that a bundle of emotion leftover from a situation like that summer to become some kind of ghost? It's not something that's all around, it's a presence that stays almost always in one spot. It feels like it has a width, height, and depth, even though there's nothing there.

Anyone have any insight?

I've heard of a few instances while do my research on ghosts, of people who can have an intense build-up of energy and have it manifest into ways that would make one think there was a ghost about. It seems to happen with mostly teenagers (and we all know how the teenage years can be). I haven't studied that particular area of psychic phenomonon, and couldn't tell you the exact theories about it. It's almost like unintended telekinisis. If I find exact cases, i'll post them for ya'.

Basically, it's quite possible. Sometimes, I think it's the reason that every place I live seems haunted.

Most likely just lingering emotion for the event, the place where you spent so much time in.

Some psychic theories are that the stronger or longer an emotional event takes place the more psychic energy that place has.

In the theories of astral projection and the astral plane it is the same: your strong emotional energy has left an imprint on the energies surrounding that place on the astral level.

However, my main opinion goes towards psychology, not parapsychology: you associate that place with the memory of such emotion and thusly feel it whenever there.

sounds kinda like a fart that you allow to build up in your lower intestinal tract until you finally can't hold it any longer and BOOM
it's released and the results are paranormally powerful

yeah...i can see those emotional ghosts
there's a name for it isn't there?

While they are not ghosts it is believed that there can be a psychic imprint on locations of extreme emotional distress such as battlefields and houses where murders take place. These residual energies can leave a psychic mark on a place and manifest themselves in different ways. For instance on a battlefield one may see or hear soldiers going about their orders, or crying out for their comrades. In houses there can be a repeat of events, like a recording that starts in a certain place and stops.

For instance if a woman who lived in a house had a certain pattern like checking on her children she might leave an imprint of psychic energy that can be seen as a figure or the sound of someone walking from room to room and checking inside. There are all kinds of psychic imprints and while they are all physically harmless it is thought that a build up of excessively negative energy can affect living individuals and cause depression and violence as a reaction to extensive exposure.

There is no way to record these manifestations of psychic imprintation but they are quite common and very different from a haunting in that the "ghosts" never interact with their observers but merely carry on their own way as if caught in a loop that never ends.

Nobody has used the correct word for this phenomenon yet.

Your basement has a ghoul. (pronounced Gool)
I know this from first hand experience as my old flat/appartment was haunted by a ghoul.

According to Magic2k.com a ghoul is:..."a term is often misused by the under-educated to mean some kind of horrible beast or zombie of some sort. However a true ghoul is more like a Ghost that cannot be seen. Some may describe it as a feeling. You can have good or bad Ghouls. Some make people happy, sad argue or depressed. There was a case of a ghoul in a house in Plymouth that has been split into two flats. The couple that lived in the upstairs flat were married but divorced shortly after moving in, and the couple that lived in the bottom flat were engaged to be married, but seperated after a few months. The couple downstairs then moved out and another couple moved in. They found it very strange and oppressive. They had the forsight to realise what was happening to them and called Magic2k to investigate. Upon leaving the property, they reported a black mist behind the glazed door as they locked up for the last time and even explained that it felt like it was calling them back to suck their energy. A Ghoul is best described as the resident vibrations of previous events. If someone gave birth in a house, that room would probably have good vibrations. If they were brutally murdered, that room would have bad vibrations. There are varying degrees of Ghoul, but this Plymothian example is one of the worst we have investigated."

Here's another question to add onto my previous one... Is there a way to get rid of these "psychic imprints"...?

By the way, thank you for your insight, everyone.

Actually depending on the severity of the psychic imprint there is little that can be done to remove a psychic imprint. The more violent the experiance the deeper the "stain". Psychic imprints are not actual beings or ghosts and so can't be removed but there have been cases of people using positive energy to counteract the negativity.

I have read that some people who have lived in houses with negative psychic imprints have redressed the rooms that were affected in bright happier colors, only conducted cheerful events in those rooms and when ever they felt that they were in a negative mood they avoided those rooms to prevent further negative psychic imprinting.

In some of these cases there has been some success using these methods and while the imprint wasn't erased it was less intense.

Um isn't a Ghoul the result after one /who felt immence emotions/ death? That really isn't at all a very clear definition. Its like reading Covey :)
