HARD TO
EXPLAIN TALES 7
Voices Spinning Out My Head
Weird stuff ain’t new to me or my family. I
could send pages and pages about weird encounters all members of my family had,
but right now I really need to know what the hell is going on with one
particular one. This happened, the first time in 1985, the second one in 1989, a
third in 1991 and the last one two nights ago (February 24, 2003). I live in San
Luis, Mexico and we´re catholics. In the Wednesday of Ash (1985) when I
was 14 years old, I was seeing my favorite TV show when my mom told me and my
sister that we must go to Church to have the Ash in our foreheads. I really
didn’t want to go so I was really pissed off to be forced. The Church is just
one block from home and all the way there I was grumbling and picking on my
sister. When we got to the Church, the line was very long so I said a swear
word. My mom heard, pinched me, and asked me (not very nicely) to get out. I
felt bad, but glad (do you know what I mean?), so I returned home, and realized
the front door was open. I’ve seen my mom locked it before we left, so this
seemed weird to me, but I step inside anyway. As soon as I got to the middle of
the living room I hear several voices whispering very quickly around me!
Could’nt tell if they were female or male and neither could figure out what they
we’re saying. It seemed to be a different language that I coul not
identify. I froze in the middle of my empty house living room hearing them until
the door opened. I screamed loud, but it was the maid who came from Church to
get a sweater. She helped me to see the whole house. Nobody was inside and we
have just one door, the front one. Second time (1989) was in Holy Friday in a
small town a few hours from my hometown. We were there for the Holydays
visiting old neighbors (we used to live there when I was 4 years old) and
I was having the most boring time ever. There was nobody my age and no
activities of any interest to me. So I was bitching and grumbling, and guess
what: I decided to spend the time picking on my 14 years old sister. Mom
sent me to the guest room we were staying at. The same thing happened. I slamed
the door, really pissed off and in the center of the room, I suddenly hear these
whispering voices, but this time they were really close. Close enough to feel
the breathe in my ear. The sound was like have headphones: sometimes in one ear,
next second in the other. This time I could notice male and female voices. Two
of them really gave me the creeps: one was male, low, angry and seemed to push
me somehow ( I don’t know how to explain that, nobody touched me, but there was
some kind of pressure coming from this voice). The other was a female, mocking,
kind of lunatic scary voice. There were more voices, I can’t tell how
many, but must be more than four or five. They were moving around me. I turned
my head several times trying to catch the source, but there no one with me in
the room. I reached my hands but couldn’t touch anything (which was a relief). I
could move, I mean, I was turning around, but couldn’t get the hell out of
there. My mind was yelling “get out, run”, but my body just stood there. The
volume of the voices was louder and louder and seemed to be more voices joining.
Somebody pulled some hairs of my nape and that was all I needed. I ran away
screaming like a madwoman with full moon. The language was foreign again and
unidentifiable. I got the feeling that the voices were mean. The third time
(1991) wasn’t a religious celebration day, I wasn´t angry, I wasn´t having a
tantrum or bothering someone. I was staring at a bronze horse statue when I
heard a whisper in my right ear. I turned around, this time there were people
near me, but to my surprise, the nearest person was 10 meters from me. Not close
enough to whisper. I was standing alone at the center of a very large theatre
hall and then a second whisper came. In my left ear. This voice seemed a good
one, it was not scary, I could not understand the meaning, but somehow I though
it was telling me “Go”, so I came back home, losing my very expensive ticket in
the process. Nothing special happened, so I don’t know why this voice
didn’t want me in the place. I speak english, spanish, a little french and
german, I know how it sounds italian, latin, japanese and russian, among others.
The voices just don´t seem to speak one of these. It’s more like a gibberish, a
nonsense, but I know they mean something. Now I’m 31 and didn’t hear them in
more than 11 years. Until last Monday. I was reading a book in my living room
(we have two sets of furniture in two nonseparate rooms, so it´s like just one
large living room) when I saw in the corner of my left eye a human shape dark
figure standing in the middle of the second one, in front of me. I raised my
head to have a full vision, there was no one there. But there was 3 or 4
dark figures reflected on the turn-off TV in the opposite side. I looked at the
place there were supposed to be, but nothing, they were only visible in the TV
screen. They were very black. I stood up, throwing my book at the empty space
the TV showed they were in while yelling some curse words (somebody told me that
curse words seem to scare ghost away) and then they start speaking behind me, I
turned my head to the sound, nothing, I looked at the TV, nothing, the dark,
shadow like, figures were gone but the voices remained. This time I didn’t
freeze. I took my car keys and just took off to my boyfriend’s place. I
returned home when everybody else was already there. I’ve been researching with
people and in the internet, but still haven’t found another experience like
mine. I’m scared. I don’t like those figures at all and I’ve never ever seen
them before. I don’t know who or what they are. Every single time I heard
them was daylight. The first and second time I was angry, but the last two I was
normal, my mind occupied in positive things, so I can’t tell for sure what’s the
cause of this. I need to know why this happens, and more than that, I want to
know what they are saying.
