The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

My brother, and a couple of friends of mine and I have a habit of going into the local wood or cemetery late at night. On a few occasions when we do this, a few angered spirits make themselves known.

I would like to mention that we respect the dead and do not do anything stupid to anger them. This only happens when it is my brother or one of my friends that is with me.

I was wondering if any of you could think of a reason this might be happening. Cause when I am alone in these places nothing happens like that. Or if you have like experiences please share so I might get some ideas.

Just a sugestion but maybe your brother is a medium or has some ability to channel and connect with the spirits.

OR perhaps they come to the cemetary alone as well on occasion and they may have angered the spirits? Wheras you havn't:)

a lot of times a angry spirit might not light a certain person that your with. maybe at one time your brother or someone else had angered a spirit or they just prefer you my themselves.

that happened to me once when i went with someone and found out later that that certain someone would disrespect spirits so they would let everyone know.

Spirits can be angered for several reasons, but considering spirits are locked on this plane because of some trauma, they probably still haven't gotten over it and are looking for people to blame

Alot of the angry spirits I have met do not like a group of people trepassing upon their resting spot.
They feel vulnerable.

The spirits dislike trespassers perhaps you should simply not go

maybe they are seeking your thoughts

Maybe you, yourself have a connection or such ability that makes it so that you do not upset nor disturb the souls of the dead, as the others may be quiet the oposite.
The medium Theory sound possible, Tread Caefully the dead are not to be angerd.

Thank you all for your opinions. Your views are quite possible and I think I'll look into them a bit more. As for the cemetery, I plan on returning there to give an apology to any spirits that come to me. After all, it is a place I go for a walk and relax and commune with myself, without disturbing anything.

To go alone seems reasonable since they obviously aren't bothered by you.

BEING AN OL CEMETARY WORKER, THAT USE TO SPEND A LOT OF TIME THERE EVEN AT NIGHT, WE HAD A GENTLEMN CAUSE A COMMOTION WITH SPIRITS THAT COULD NOT REST. SPIRITS LIKE THE OTHERS HAVE SAID ARE TRIGGERED BTY CERTAIN PEOPLE. SOME CASES PLEASE BEWARE. FOR THE SPIRITS ARE GENTLE TO START BUT MAY GROW EVEN ANGRER THE MORE THEY ARE IGNORED.

I agree with the general consensus that one of your party is strong in psychic abilities. However maybe one of your party reminds the spirits of their trauma or possibly the spirit recognises a soul in your party and it angers them that the soul has moved on.

It could be a number of reasons. But the prudent thing would be to let the souls rest and not disturb them again.

They could be anger for a number of reasons:

You & your brother & friends make too much noise!

They dont like the living company!

They get anger coz its a dead mans zone etc....!

Who really knows why...spirits/ghosts etc are very tricky, they do things for no reason...!

I think it's probably because they don't like you're brother for some reason or another...Or, like someone said he makes too much noise/ went there without you sometime & did something they didnt like

I agree with lordfangor. leave the dead in peace. maybe you think you're not doing anything to "anger " them But what exactly is done in this cemetary? Just walking? I'm sure you step on a few graves while walking around? And do you go at night? If so, I'm a firm believer of the dead rule the cemetaries at night. That is THEIR home till judgement day. Leave them alone and in peace.

I have deleted all posts that include or start with, "I agree with all of the other posts", and then fail to post anything substantially different than what has already been said.

Seems to lil old me that perhaps the popular term "Rest In Peace" is something these spirits may be interested in doing. I used to work at an old hotel and whenever remodeling was done in a particular room the wallpaper would always peel off, it looked as though it had been ripped. They obviously didn't like their room touched.

I would be interested to know how it is that the angry spirits "had made themselves known"..what do you mean, what happened?

It might possibly be the fact that more than one person is there that angers them...or disturbs them...since you say it doesn't happen when you're alone. Has any of your friends went alone? Do they still get the same result?

I'd agree with a few posters, leave the dead in peace. Would you like someone stomping around you're resting place at night? I know I'd be disrespected

I think hanging out in cemeteries for fun is disrespectful to the spirits that are there. Burial grounds are sacred and for individuals to congrete or loiter there is reason alone for a spirit to be upset.

well said HellaciousRose, Stop treading on the dead because you're bored or want to be cool "playing" in a cemetary. I doubt you and you friends are respectful enough to avoid walking ON the graves themselves. When i do go to a cemetary, it's to visit friends not with us anymore. Not 'hang out" that's what parks and qwik-e-marts are for

I'd just like to say that we don't tread on any graves. The cemetery had paved and gravel roads which you can walk on. We don't go there to be "cool."

As far as I know the others don't go unless they have someone else with them. When it comes to me, I pay my respects to the dead every time I am there. And I never knew any of them.

I treat the spirits with respect, like they should be. So if you are going to comment please try not to bash me when you don't have the whole layout cemetery or itinerary of the night when I go. Thank you.

So what IS your "intinerary" then. What is it that you do there. Art reasons? Getting stone rubbings? What? And I'm not bashing you, but no offense, you're giving a VERY vague description of WHAT you do there. And WHY you go there. And how exactly do you pay your "respect" to the dead? I'm very curious to know that.

My "itinerary" is to relax, walk, pay respect(will go into detail), and be alone. I never touch the graves or walk on them. As for paying my respects to the dead. I will at random times stop on the road and say a few words to a group of graves. It's nothing special just simple words. I always do this when I get to the section that has the newborns that didn't live long enough to experience life. The cemetery is their home, I know this and respect it.

Maybe your brother or his friend had angered a spirit or maybe they seek you for guidance and do not like when there are other people with you when you are there.

Or maybe, they just don't appreciate strangers invading THEIR space. Whether or not they are being disrespected. Maybe it's spirits who just wish to be left in peace. I know as a living person, there are MANY times when I just want people to leave me alone. Maybe these spirits just want that as well, but can't say it. And to continue to go there, even after whatever it is they do to show their disapproval, may disturb them more. Then maybe you should stop going there. But I doubt you will. The living RARELY respect the deads wishes (because they don't know any better). I like how alot of people are assuming it has to be some sort of "mystical cry" for help or assistance. Or that maybe someone has a second sight. If the dead are not directly approaching you OUTSIDE of the cemetary (and only do so when you are going to go hang out there) then I doubt they are asking for anyone's help. Leave it be, and find somewhere else to hang.

As a matter of fact I and the others have encountered spirits in other places. And I'd like to point out again, that we don't go there to hang out.

i see spirits where i live and i am just chillin its not a threat that spirits are here they are just wanting to tell us something not to go away like the other night i was just done cooking and then the spirit appeared out of nowhere and waved its ghostly figured hand at me and the spirit i was looking at looked sad but then it fanaished it was a little creepy but not so much.....

If these things do not happen when you are alone in these places, maybe it has something to do with someone you bring with you. Maybe the spirits do not like something about one of the individuals that accompany you?

Have you done any research on the area that you are going into at night... maybe there is a history for that area...

No I haven't researched the area. It never really crossed my mind, maybe I should. Or well let my friend research it, it's her kind of thing.

i love spirit orbs! there fun to play with! then again my house is built over a cemetary so i play w/ them alot! ^^

i would think that being alone would make the spirits feel more comfortable as opposed to a full group of people and this might anger them just in itself

Once again I'd like to thank you all for your ideas and some of your experiences.

I think the spirits might have a thing for you, and may be jealous that you are with someone. Then again I'm just guessing.

Never happened to me because I don't go to the cemetary... but there is some truth in what few of the fellow posters said... When you go alone and nothing happens maybe the spirits don't mind you or have nothing against you... One of the friends you go with might have a stronger spiritual energy or, more probably, have done something to upset the spirits... IF the spirits would want to communicate, I think they'd find a way to exit the cemetary and search for a receiver... It is more likely that someone or something around you disturbed them and left a bad mark there...

i being a native woman can tell u y,, a lot of 'SPIRITS"' in a grave yard r folks who have passed on before they realize it...............their uncomscious self is now in charge and most r jealous because either u guys(not 2 be rude) have awoke their sleeping passions or,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,which is more common,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the spirits within these folks other than yourself r either hostile or open to the realm of death and they r VERY open now and feel his presence..................try burning some WHITE LEAF SAGE AND SPREADING THE SMOKE ON U, BEFORE U ENTER AGAIN, BUT REMEMBER respect goes both ways,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,walk well my brother

Spirits can see beyound what we put out as our persona.....maybe they can see behind the mask

Try going to another cemetary.
First alone, nothing happens thats good.
Then take your friends along, if the same thing happens at that cemetary then the problem lies with your friends.

It could quite possibly be that there is some sort of demeanor around one of the people that you're with that the spirits don't like. Everyone gives off different vibes- maybe the spirits don't like the ones that your friends are giving off

Maybe the spirits just think they're being disturbed....

If it only happens when your brother is there with you, maybe your brother has some odd connection with the spirit/s who feel they are being disturbed. Have you ever asked him if anyone he knows died there? If not, then maybe your brother has a special connection with the spirits in another way such as a medium or something of that nature.

the reason that this is happenning toyou hon is because the spirits are sending you a message just so you will never forget them.

i was also thinking that maybe your brother looks like someone that cause the spirit trama. the psychic ablility could also be true.

I personally have had numerous buddies die so i welcome the abilitty to speak with them whenever possible

Well, whenever I visit the cemetary, I never feel threatened, just unwanted. Most of the time I guess it's because they want to be left alone. I don't know. I've been able to see them all my life. The only spirit that ever liked me was a 2 year old girl that died during Vietnam...... And that's only because she thought I was pretty........ lol

i think that maybe the spirts can sense something that they dont like and thats why they become angry but when you go alone they sense no harm coming from you so they dont get angry

I have a hard time believing spirits hang out alongside their discarded shells.

People see and feel things because they have 'learned' this is a spooky situation. Just like a psychosomatic illness... contemplate it long enough and you will have the symptoms.

Your intentions may be pure, but I think you have been given enough hints so as to desist your visits.
Besides, the lingering negative energies can leave you drained if you're not careful. I know 'cos I've been in your shoes.

i knew a lady that had a house fll of spirits, when there were people in the house they didnt like they would push her, yet they never did this when i was there, then on night thay locked me in the house with her and wouldnt let me out, does that mean they liked me??

Clearly it means these spirits do not like your friends or your brother but they seem to trust you.

I believe in energy. There are always postive and negative energy in everything. My opinion is since there are more of you, which means you are making more enegry than it is easier to draw a spirits energy. Also some people are more susseptible to making contacts with spirits than others are.

maybe he has some negative energy that the spirit doesnt like??

It could have been negitive energy or as someone said maybe they only want you to themselves... or maybe they are just being pains in the ass

as the spirits can sens and read in us like a in an open book, so you might radiate good vibes and send excellent feelings and open minded taugs to them , could be that when you are not alone the vibes ether turn bad cause fo the onewith you radiating bad ones or because the combination of yours and them makes it kind alike evil. And they can sens it.

It only happens when you are with a friend? Hmm that is strange. Maybe they realize that hey there is two of u so you will take them seriously and know that they are there for real. Two people cant be imagining the same thing.

Perhaps the spirits just don't like your brother or your friends. There could be a couple of reasons. Maybe you should go more by yourself if they don't ever bother you.

It is called mob mentality. This is when you can induce yourself into believing something if you have others that will believe in it also. The more you believe the more true a situation can become. To see if you really can feel anything try meditation there. Alone. Maybe that will help to put you in the right frame of mind to be accepting as a single unit and not using others energies to help.

i think that the spirits can sense what you feel and the respect you have for them and i think they can also sense that your brother doesn't really have the respect for them. or they have done something to disturb the spirits. it would depend on what each individual person is doing in the graveyard. if your brother and his friend are in any way desecrating the graveyard then the spirits would definitely be upset, or it could just be that they can immediately gain an intimate knowledge of your personality.

it might be the time of night you went there.

although i don't think that i've angered any spirits, i have the ghost of a young man (aprox. 15-18) and a small girl (maybe about 8 or so) in my house and the girl seems to enjoy moving my things around my room, and the boy seems to like messing with appliances. on more than one occasion he's come into physical contact with me by putting a hand on or brushing up against my shoulder. they either mess with me or my friends that come over, but never anyone in my family. a friend of mine has pissed off spirits by messing up by messing with a ouija board and they seemed to follow her everywhere until she got rid of it.

It seems it may be someone your with that they do not like, maybe they have angered the spirit in some way. But i think you should just go on your own from now on.

you are being very foolish playing with forces you may not be able to control..

maybe your brother and friend Have had passed relationships with these spirits...

Are you able to tell us how these Spirits show their anger ?

There may be something about your brother and your friend that the spirits don't see as right. When something comes along that they feel threatened by...they get angry. Or from what I've experianced. Perhaps they feel threatened by the people you bring. And not by you.

I would think that maybe something on your brother's part that he did you do not know of that bothered them.

I will tell you of a past experience I had of going to cemetaries. Myslef and a few friends of mine decided to visit this cemetary somewhere outside Jackson, Ohio that was known to be haunted, some of being mediums loved the idea of seeng strange events take place and weird and wicked that night became. One of my stupid friends desided to stand on one of the tombstones, it fell over knocking my friend down and then went back upright. Then something happened to my friend and I felt it too, he was possesed briefly and it was a none too friendly spirit to boot. We quickly left. As soon as we were far enough from the cemetary the spirit left my friend.

To sum up, Spirits can sense where there are stupid people and much like we like to play jokes on people, Spirits like to do the same, to let us know that they are the ones in control, not us, and will prove to anyone that they sense naive and stupid.

The spirits just probably does not like your brother and friends, it is probably something like that...

It could be that with an individual, they don't feel threatened.

A theory I have, which I could very well be in the wrong, maybe they can tell a little bit about a person, like a sixth sense..maybe with a group it's hard to read what's going on.

Ever think that it may not be "angry spirits" at all, and that this is al a manifestation from your own mental projections? You don't see any evidence of anythign else out there when you are alone because there is no one else to project it upon, whereas with others there is all sorts of weirdness going on.

...Just to toss another idea out there...

maybe this spirits want to tell you and your brother some thing that why it only appers when you are together.

most likely it happens because one of your is more sensitive to energies and sometimes such spirits dislike being interrupted by such trespassers.

I would imagine that either one of them is more sensitive to their presence, one of them has angered the spirits or remind them of someone who has, other wise i dont really know

Maybie your friends have angered them. Or they are infact a medium. Hell, your friends might look and act like someone that they arent exactly happy with.

If it bugs you deal with the spirit. Put it back in its dead little world. If not send it packing to the abyss.

It is possible the spirits are angry for some other reason. Just because they are angry around you, it does not mean it's your fault. The living are the same way. My mother is like that. She always vents her anger on the wrong people. Just give them their space. Believe me, it'll be best for all of you.

they may feel that their resting places wernt being respected by one of you..

I agree with the person above me...sumthing like this happend to me and 2 friends of myne years ago..lol...they had never acted up when me or one of my family members went by but they did that one time when it was the three of us..

Could be your brother and his friend had past lives with these spirits , and there is some unfinished business between them

One thing is...they may only like you. I know you respect them, but do both of they? And maybe they're seeing something in the 2 of them that they don't like. Something you can't seem to find. And they might know but do not want to admit it. They will usually get angered if they sense a danger to themselves or something bad is amongst them.
