For context, my fathers organs were failing, and he was rotting away at my half-brothers house with the rest of my family and the kids. He wasn't lucid at all and couldn't really understand much of what was going on or what people were saying. I was home alone, and yesterday, he passed and the funeral guys took him, we planned on cremating him and, yesterday when I finally fell asleep at 4 am, I had a terrible night terror, something I haven't had in years. However this was nothing like I ever experienced. I kept having false awakenings, atleast 20 times in that dream. Each one involving my father and his spirit interacting with us. I woke up with only an hour of sleep, terrified.
I got two texts at the same time shortly before waking up, one from my brother and one from my mother. Just saying "Yes". Do keep in mind I always kept my phone on mute, and it wasn't a delay or anything since I was calling and texting a friend before sleeping, we were up most the night together since she has lawschool and I don't get to speak to her often. I don't know if this was at all related but it can't be a coincidence. I knew something was going on, I was no stranger to the paranormal, but nothing like this.
I went outside my bedroom, and I asked if it was him, if he could give me a sign. I heard something shift in the living room and I knew- The temperature was abnormally cold. I went into his bedroom and the closet light I left on was turned off. I asked for a sign after turning it back on and I heard a few taps. I began to get a little spooked out. I went into the bathroom and asked for another- The light turned on and began to flicker. At this point I was scared out of my mind, I couldn't stop shaking. I had a cigarette, tried to call my brother. He didn't believe me, and ended the call to go back to sleep.
I called an old friend I haven't spoken to in a while, he was pretty much the biggest expert on these things that I ever knew. He got out of bed and got onto Discord with me, which I webcammed as well just incase. We decided to do a lesser banishment along with some latin prayers. When doing so in his room the already cold temperature dropped even further, I was shaking uncontrollably. He tried to stop me or I guess interfere by moving things and grabbing a running cable from under the door, and I knew I wasn't going crazy, my friend saw it too.
He messed with random things such as closing a cabinet I had opened for tape for a cross(I'll get into that in a second) and just moving random things to make noise, blowing out an incense stick I lit (and in all my experience with incense sticks I never once had them just go out, especially after quite a bit of the stick had already burned). It didn't work so we went with something a little stronger in terms of exorcism. My family isn't really religious, much less believe in the paranormal.
We had no bible, no cross. I made a makeshift one and got a gatorade bottle, cleaned it out, put in some water, some salt (I didn't think table salt would work honestly) and began a prayer to bless it, thanks to the guidance of my old friend. I went into every room besides one I ended up forgetting. Splashing it and starting prayers in hopes that he may find peace.
I of course, told him I forgave him for everything he has done. After all of that he ended up calming down I think, the atmosphere just seemed.. Lighter.. I opened the windows, got some light in as the sun was rising at this point. I think he's still lingering for a bit but, he's not being hostile anymore. I told him I'd take care of the kids and his little chihuahua Ginger. I just hope he finds peace..
This was honestly one of the scariest nights I have ever had, and I didn't expect it at all. I mean, a spirit of a man who passed not even a day ago, able to move things, turn things on and off- He was already pretty intune with spirits in terms of animals, but was it because of anger? I felt like he was going through the stages of grief since he was unable to do so before his death. But christ almighty.. I'm still processing that all this happened not even a few hours ago. I actually just, kinda realized this- but my siberian husky, Rose. I think I know why she was acting the way she was all night. I'm just hoping it's over now and he can rest in peace.
To add to all this I hope the submission is okay, I've never posted here and I just read the rules. I'm grateful for my old friend who went out of his way to help me despite going through some things himself. I wouldn't have been able to doit without him.
