Disappointing.

Nothing really happened today. Maybe it's because my mum has been home most of the day, usually when there's more than just me in the house not a lot happens. Or, things do happen but I assume its my mum pottering about. I've also been up at my grandparents a bit this evening so I haven't really taken much notice of things. I'll keep a check tonight when my mum goes to bed but I won't be staying up too late because I have college tomorrow.

Sorry for the disappointing news but I never really expect something to happen EVERY day :)
Oh well, maybe later?

Footage from November 8th 2011.

This was taken on the 8th November 2011, at 21:28pm on my iPhone 4s. At first I thought it was dust, so I took another video and I saw what actually WAS dust which didn't look anything like the ''orb'' in this video. I'm not sure what else it could be, as it's quite large and very fast. It was quite interesting though.

Bit of a bummer?

Well I've been home for just over an hour now and nothing unusual has happened. My mum is asleep and I'm just about to as well. I'll try and upload some footage on here tomorrow and we'll see if anything else happens :)

Recorded diary entry 1.

Saturday 18^th February 2012 / Time (?): My mirror, which was on my windowsill that hasn’t moved for weeks, suddenly fell this morning that woke me up. (after 7am but before  9am)

Saturday 18^th February 2012 / Time (10:49AM-10:51AM): Repeated banging downstairs. First it sounded like it was from the kitchen, then by the back door. Could be the neighbours, coming from next door?

 Saturday 18^th February 2012 / Time (10:56am): 2 bangs, which sounded like it was from the hallway outside my room but always on the stairs somewhere? I’m not too sure but could be next door still. Won’t rule that out as the houses are all attached.

Saturday 18^th February 2012 / Time (11:05 onwards): Left the video camera in the kitchen facing the back door as that’s where I thought I heard the banging. Left it for 4 minutes 52 seconds in all. At 4 minutes 15 seconds there’s a loud bang from the top of the cooker. At first I thought it was my cat because she jumped on the counter when it was first filming but when I ran down after the bang she wasn’t even in the kitchen. Made a rookie mistake by not filming my surroundings to prove this. Still quite weird but perhaps a logical explanation? Biggest thing to happen today so far.

Saturday 18^th February 2012 / Time (13:52pm): Weird bang from the back door again, then a weird laugh. Still could be next door.

Saturday 18^th February 2012 / Time (4:10pm): I heard someone scratch / knock at the door but no one was there when I opened it. This happened twice.

I've decided to post this now because I'm at my grandparents (who live less than 30 seconds away) and will be here for a while. I will make more notes when I go home tonight and post them later. 

I would also like to point out that usually, not this much stuff happens on a daily basis. Maybe it's because I now have a camera and this ''energy'' or whatever is out to make a show :) 

I will try and upload the footage I mentioned in my diary up there as soon as I can. I just need to figure out how to get it onto my mac and I haven't got a lead right now to connect to my camera, so bare with me! 

My video camera.

This is my new video camera, by Sony. Nothing special as you can see but it's enough. I'm not after some big expensive video recorder and since I got this free, I'm happy. It does what I need it to do just fine (sorry that the picture is flipped...)

Day 1

This is the start of my paranormal blog. I decided to do this because for a while now there have been many weird, unexplainable things that have been happening. Before I start though, I do want to say that I have a very open mind and despite the thing I will blog about in the future, I will always try and come up with an explanation as to what else this ''paranormal activity'' could be. I never jump straight to ''ghost'' or ''haunting'', I try and think of what else it could be. I will however blog everything that happens and if I think it could perhaps be something other than paranormal I will say so.

As of today I will start documenting weird little things that happen throughout the day on a word document then post it on here at the end of each day (I'll try to make it every day). I will also be posting footage / photos now and then.

Yesterday my dad managed to get some free video cameras, one of which had 'night mode', which I found really cool. I went round to his house to have a play with it and he let me borrow it which made me want to create this blog. I also want to do this because my granddad specifically is very sceptical about things to do with ghosts and maybe if I start documenting things he will finally believe me to an extent and realises I'm not making this stuff up.

*Important notice*
Any footage or photos I post will be 100% GENUINE. At no point will I attempt to tamper with it to make it look like something more than what it is. I'm a big believer in genuine footage and you don't see that much nowadays so the footage I provide will be real. Not to mention I don't really have the right software or equipment to even try and manipulate what I produce.
Also, I am very accepting to peoples opinions. If you don't believe in ghosts or anything to do with the paranormal field then thats okay. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, as long as you don't slate the things I do. I do this because I find it interesting, as a hobby and because I enjoy it. I'm not trying to force anyone to believe me and like I said, I won't always assume that every bump in the night is a ghost. I'm merely documenting what happens as something fun to do, but none of this will be fake :)
