Can objects cause paranormal activity?

Great replies everyone I'm in the process at the moment getting some video and audio. So as soon as I get something interesting, I will post it.
In the mean time i'm listening to everyone and taking notes

Please tell me something about the wooden box.
I once met an old woman who showed me an ancient method of divination involving an old heirloom trunk handed down in her family for generations.
The trunk she said came from Brittain to the U.S. with her family and may have been hundreds of years old.

The method involved putting a piece of paper on top of the trunk and letting the hand wander drawing a continuous line. Like with automatic writing. The difference wast that the scribbles always drew an incredibly clearly defined picture. She demonstrated this method to me without the trunk, which she said made the picture many times more clearly detailed.

Even without the trunk, she most definately drew some interestingly realistic pictures out of nothing but scribbles. I wonder if this may have been a popular metaphysical exercise once, and perhaps still has a quiet following today.

Does your trunk, or box have lots of faint impressions on the lid, like someone drew pictures on top of it often?


P.S. That complimentary ticket to the Southern Exposition for it's first of five years, is probably a museum worthy item. It is one of the first three hundred tickets, and a ticket gifted to someone of influence. In comparison, Wikipedia shows a picture of a ticket from the second year.
Your's could potentially be the only ticket from the first year.

Your ticket has a story, that makes antiques much more valued. Especially if the other items you have relate to that story, and lend it support.

Ok, I just went to check and did not find anything on the lid. I did however find some scratches and what looks like scribbles in the shape of clouds on the front of the box in between the two straps that hold the lid down. I tried to take pics but the semi gloss finish is making it hard to see the scribbles in them.

Yes, cloud like scrawling circles and loops were what the womand did, large broad circling motions.

Maybe it was used that way. The attachment of energy is usually related to emotions. Emotions drive the release of energy. The relationship to the Southern Expostion would seem a positive influence.

Take notice of what kind of emotional state you are in when the sounds occur. It would be a hint about the general intention imprinted on the items. Your personal stray emotional energy may contribute to the occurances.

It seems that you are in tune with these things, still I would avoid deliberately storing personal energy on items, as I have warned before.

I have read of Sorcerers who have become eternally anchored to rocks, in a wretched semi state of existence.

Consider what remains after the body passes from existence. It might not be good to become litterally become permanently attached to physical items.

The waY I see it is that people produce their own energy... so if they project certain thoughts or some of that energy into an object, why shouldn't it stay with that object?

My understanding is that it happens all the time, as you described it.

However there is a difference when you do it deliberately and with great intention, focus and specificity of the intention.

Most of our emotional intentions are fairly vague and find outlet rapidly.
So the charge dissipates. The more distinct and well defined the intention placed in an object the more permanently it becomes charged. It is possible to make such an item vampiric, picking up what additional energys it can and adding them to it's store. You need only add that specific intention.

Since this is in truth a bit of yourself, and since you are in truth boundless, anchoring any of yourself to an object in the physical world on a permanent basis is said to be catastrophic in it's impact once you leave the material world. This last part is beyond my knowledge but I accept the warning.
Creating power objects is sorcery.
The use of personal energy is seeing.
Modern seers warn against sorcery, as do most religions.

I don't know if you looked up the names on the papers. I did find a JM Riggs that was an important member of society at that time.

At the election of 1882 he was elected to the forty-eighth congress and was re-elected in 1884.

I wonder if that is him?

I think they do. I have read many accounts of things causing hauntings.

This thread is interesting. We purchased an old floor console television from an estate sale (recycle! recycle!), and within days the television basically never stopped bothering us. Turning itself off and on at the most bizarre times of the day- or in the midst of watching a DVD, etc. We had it in three different plugs- different areas, even changing a room.

I did not think on/off was the same 'command' electronically- but I guess it is in this television. It became so disruptive we finally decided to take it to Goodwill- but our eldest commandeered it for her room.

Apparently she is compatible, as this is no longer an issue. That said, it was only creepy in that it was sooo demanding. Maybe it missed being on all the time?
