(3,542 posts)In 69 while being baby sat by my 17yo cousin. My 2 other cousins and me were playing with a Ouija board and one of the folks we were "communicating" with was my grandfather. I am the 3rd in the line and bear his name. While doing this I had the worst case of goose bumps I had ever had. Hair stood up as well (what hair I had at 9 or 10) anyway the night progressed and eventually we all fell asleep.
Got up in the middle of the night, had to go the bathroom across the hall which was a small half bath which contained a toilet, a sink, above which was a huge mirror and that's it. Was checking my look in the mirror like all 9 year olds do in the middle of the night. haha Really just washing hands I guess and was grabbed by something and shaken around the room. I looked in the mirror and saw myself being moved. The grab was very specific, on top of the collar bone in the muscle above. I freaked and started screaming the episode ended no harm and I ran out of the bathroom and ran into the living room where my 17yo cousin was hanging out with his girlfriend. They had heard nothing and when my cousin got me settled down and I explained. He told me that was how my grandfather shook peoples hand, he would grab you by the that muscle with his left hand and shake your right. I still feel being moved around that room. Cahreepy.
