RESIDUAL HAUNTINGS

[Guest guest]

RESIDUAL HAUNTINGS A

residual haunting is where no actual spirit is involved. This seems to

be the most common type of haunting, it is a playback of events that

have previously occurred. Many

people report their homes being haunted, although a residual haunting

may hold certain characteristics of an actual haunting. Residual

hauntings can sometimes be portrayed by way of strange sounds like

footsteps or knockings. Certain occasions may even see apparitions

figures moving across an area then suddenly vanishing, of course those

who witness this type of event will automatically assume they have a

ghost. Residual energy does not interact or change its pattern of

events, the actions are basically played over and over again. Also

known as the 'Stone wall' effect, residual energy is believed to be

made by the living. Every living person and animal emits energy of some

degree. The places we visit or encounter may be touched by our

energies. Emotions are a strong type of energy, this too can have

effects on our surroundings. Energies

of an emotion or an event can sometimes become entrapped within the

fabric of a building. Electromagnetic fields and ideal atmospheric

conditions maybe the cause of this type of phenomena. Video

and audio tapes capture images and sounds on a film of special material

that has been oxidized or rusted. Certain building materials such as

slate, stone structures and iron nails used in many older buildings

have properties similar to that of the tapes. When

a traumatic event or a time of heightened emotions these materials can

record the event for future playback. We are not sure what causes the

playback of events. What we do know is that everything is made of

energy and energy cannot be destroyed. So is it the right weather conditions, Witness energy or some type of energy release? This still remains to be a mystery.
