Cool Paranormal Stuffs To Try!

I have gathered here a list paranormal related activities that I have heard from my country and some countries abroad. Very creepy stuffs would actually happen if you do it right!


1) Ouija Board : Famous for contacting the dead and making new friends!

2) Levitation Trick : Get 5 friends, one would lay on the floor and closed his/her eyes. The other 4 would surround her( head, feet and opposite sides of the body i.e right and left) and must chant "light as feather, stiff as board" as many times as possible. Take note that every participant must have their eyes closed during the chanting. It is believed the victim, the one laying on the floor will levitate and defy gravity.

3) Bloody Mary Game : Hold a mirror in a dark room and chant "Blood Mary" 13 times while looking at the mirror. It is said that she'll appear behind you in the mirror's reflection soaked in blood. According to other variations of the game, you must spin 100+ times while glancing at the mirror every spin. Some said it might be the devil's spouse appearing instead.

4) Bending Spoon/Forks : Best done in a fun and lively atmosphere such as gatherings or festive party. Get a group of friends( the ones you like!) and bring lots of unused spoons or forks (forks works best because it gives more of a dramatic result ). Shout and scream "bend" at the spoon/fork suddenly for it to bend while staring at it and after some time if it doesn't, divert your attention away at something or someone and relax for a moment. It is said that contrary to the popular belief, the spoon/fork will bend while you are in a relaxed state. They even said when you want to leave the party, you'll see that your spoon/fork has been distorted without your knowledge eventhough you had it with you the whole while.

5) Play Tag : Get 4 friends and bring them to a dark square room. Assign them A,B,C and D respectively and locating them each in one corner of the dark room.

A : Corner 1
B : Corner 2
C : Corner 3
D : Corner 4

Ask A to go to B's location and tag him at the shoulder.

A and B : Corner 2
C: Corner 3
D: Corner 4

Now corner 1 is empty.

Order them to move in clockwise rotation in which AB will move to corner 3 and tags C before C makes he move to D and tag him. Consequently, D will move to corner 1 which is empty. Continue rotating and ask them to count the number of tags they felt after a particular number of rounds.

Remember that A and B are together so they are considered 1 person. Therefore, do the calculations as to how much each person should be tag according to the number of rounds. It is said that they were tagged more than the calculated number of times eventhough one corner is left empty. Spooky stuff.

6) Midnight Mirror : Get an apple, knife to peel the apple and a mirror. Sit in a dark room and face the mirror while holding the apple and the knife at the same time. As soon as it struck midnight, peel the apple's skin using the knife while staring at the mirror. Ensure that you peel the apple's skin in a perfect loop without breaking the skin throughout the whole process. They said that while peeling the apple, you will be able to see your future in the mirror. It will only end after if you break the skin from the apple.

Please do comment on the games! And if you have paranormal games that you know, I would love to hear from you guys! happy trying!

Bloody Mary Game : Hold a mirror in a dark room and chant "Blood Mary" 13 times while looking at the mirror. It is said that she'll appear behind you in the mirror's reflection soaked in blood.

I fail to see the fun (the game part) in being scared to near death by a woman covered in blood... Maybe I'm just a serious person that fails to see the fun in anything...

But seriously it would be interesting to hear if some of the stuff work. I've seen a variation of the levitation "game" played by schoolgirls. The difference was that the fifth person sits on a chair. The other four people tries to lift the person by just using their index fingers, finding that they can't, they walk in a circle around the person in the chair, chanting the same words (as above). I can't recall how many times, but then they try to lift the person again with only their index fingers, and this time they're able to lift the person in the chair high up.

I don't know what it proves but it's an "interesting game to witness".

Well, about the levitation game, i don't think it proves anything, if performed with the fingers as Gemwolf said: i think, in fact, that it's just a matter of combination of strengths, even if through a simple finger. I don't think there's anything paranormal in there.
Still, it would be different if the target levitates without anyone touching him/her... This could be an interesting experiment, maybe someone with a video camera here could try and film the results...

About the other games, i don't know what to think of them, especially the bloody mary and the apple one.
I knew a similar game to the bloody mary one: sit in front of a mirror, in a dark room, and when midnight strikes, say a prayer backwards (can't tell you the prayer, since i only know its italian name, and i don't know if it has been translated in other languages). In the mirror you're supposed to see the devil's face.

Never tried it, i'm a bit skeptical about it... but still i don't want to be the one who verifies if it's a hoax or not...

Most of these seem to be a sort of self-hypnotism. By convincing yourself that it's happening, you create the event in your mind like a waking dream. This is especially true of the light as a feather stiff as a board game. So long as everyone's eyes are closed, no one can say with positivity that the person ISN'T levitating. The person who was lying down will say they felt like there was air beneath them, but that's because they've created the feeling in their mind from the continuous chant of "light as a feather, stiff as a board".

Now, the version with the chair, that I'd be interested in trying and seeing, since it would defy normality. It is just your index finger, and by trying to lift it once before the chanting is a sort of "let's prove that we can't normally do it". If you can do it afterwards or during the chant, as suggested, then maybe there's some effeble quality to it.

I have done the "light as a feather, stiff as a board" one before. It was the chair one. It does work.

My theory on why it works. When you test it first, you have already in your mind that you can't do it. Then, the second time around, when you do it again, your mind says yes we can do it and it works. I've tested this before. After we did the game, we tried it with another person and could lift them up the first time. Like someone said, it's kind of like self hypnosis. Hope this helps.

I agree with Gemwolf. Fun would be more like - dance around with your friends naked in a field full of cupcakes. When you fall down from exhaustion say 'rich beyond dreams, wealth beyond desire' three times. Roll in the cupcakes and have small puppies lick the icing off you. When you get home your bank account will be one million dollars richer!!

But along these lines, I've also heard many 'fun' games involving mirrors - most have something to do with staring in the mirror an extremely long time. I've tried this and the most that happened was that my eyes started playing interesting tricks - things going fuzzy and such, no persons or strange faces.

5) Play Tag : Get 4 friends and bring them to a dark square room. Assign them A,B,C and D respectively and locating them each in one corner of the dark room.

A : Corner 1
B : Corner 2
C : Corner 3
D : Corner 4

LOL!!!!!

Haha, I love that game, except theirs obstacles, and either my friends or me would trip over them, you know those small coffee tables or lazy-boy chair or a lamp you know the usually. But I haven't played by your rules yet. And it was hide and seek, but similar to tag...lol

Tried that when I was younger with a group of mates... suprise suprise, nothing happened. The chick just stayed put on the floor.

Ouija boards on the other hand are sometihng different, mum had a nasty experience when she was my age (18) she still refuses to talk about it and it happened 40 yrs ago...

It does sound like most of these are probably some sort of self-hypnosis, except for the tagging one, at least if you don't tell your friends why you are asking them to count, otherwise you may 'bias' their minds and they might think every time they brush against something or feel a gust of air, that it was a 'tag'. If you just get them to do the 'game' without telling them why until afterwards, I think that would be more effective.

A lot of these remind me of a scene in the novel 1984, when O'Brien tells Winston Smith that if the Party willed it, he could levitate off the ground at will, because if O'Brien thinks it happened, and Winston thinks it happened, and no one else witnesses it to contradict them, then it is the same as if it did happen.

I'd sure like to be able to see my future in a mirror, though... that could be really useful!

This reminds me of a time when myself, two of my friends, and my wife of that time used a OUIJA board to try and contact "Quazgaa." For those of you who don't know who that is, he is a wise alien mentioned in a couple of Streiber's communion books. The result was my friend's cat, in the middle of the seance, jumped on my shoulder and scared the crap out of me.

We had four candles lit at four corners of the table, an idea from one of my friends. Well, the red one, which was to my right, suddenly burst into flames in the center and melted in half. Freaky scene. We never made contact that I was aware of, but maybe that cat knew something.....
