As far as the original post in this thread, I think it seems a little extreme for an entity to go to so much trouble as to "possess" a series of
people just to screw with your head. Why would one person be worth all that trouble when the entity could probably just as easily scare you or harass
you without a physical body? I'm not saying it's impossible, I have an open mind. But I'm pretty skeptical about the entire concept of possession.
On the other hand I do believe entities can affect the mind in certain ways and in some cases pretty much cause a person to go out of his gourd from
the experience...
This whole thread though is pretty interesting. To me it sounds like the experiences, if not attributed to a mental disorder, are the product of an
entity messing with your head directly (causing visual / auditory hallucinations?) rather than possessing people around you to get at you. It is my
belief that an entity who would do something like that is trying to feed off your emotions.
I only say that because I've had a similar case back in '09 (this is part of a story I really don't like to talk about in detail even to this day but
it's getting easier) where I would smell something akin to rotting flesh when the entity was nearby and also see shadow people in my periphery often,
hear noises, see grotesque images when I closed my eyes, have unexplainable rage, etc. One of my friends thinks he saw the entity itself once, he
described it as a tall hooded black figure standing about 20-30 feet behind us, but I never saw it. He's one of the very few who didn't act like I was
crazy when I mentioned it so I mostly kept it to myself; my "sensitive" friend claimed to believe me but see/feel nothing when I said it was nearby.
Lasted for almost 2 months if memory serves me, some days/weeks worse than others... I thought I was going crazy, almost lost my s***. When I decided
to confront it and do away with my fear and other negative emotions towards it, it eventually left me alone and those things stopped. It all started
with "something" that showed up not long after visiting a grave site. I can't say if that's where it came from, but I noticed it within a week. I
"knew" it was negative, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt and tried to communicate with it in a friendly way (at first) and things got weird from
there.
So now I sound crazy especially to myself. Oh well.
