*Bit of a long winded story but i never really talk about this stuff with anyone so getting a chance to write it down is good*
My personal experience is pretty crappy compared to most in here. Just had a few odd coincidences in my life that i've never really thought too much of but always had at the edge of my mind. I don't know if there are any NT folk here, but the Poinciana woman at East Point in Darwin is one i was always scared of, and convinced myself that i had seen lights, doors slamming etc. Was never sure though. Some other ones that are a bit less easily explained:
Music Box:
Grandpa brought Nan one of those old wind up music boxes with the ballerina in it when he moved over to Darwin from the Czech Republic, and gave it to her on their wedding night. Lasted about 15 years, then was blown out of the house when Cyclone Tracy destroyed the place. She found it during cleanup but it didn't make any noise any more. He ended up having a due to his injuries from Tracy and died in hospital about 6 months later. Skip forward to 2014, on their 55th wedding anniversary, I was at her house with her and we heard a faint noise coming from her room. Both walked in, and the balarina had popped out of the box, spinning and playing the tune. No real logical answer behind why it would suddenly play 40 years later (not to mention it would have needed to be winded up by someone).
Son:
My partner was 4 weeks pregnant with him (we didn't know at that stage) and saw a psychic after we moved to Adelaide, because she thought that could help her depression/sleep paralysis. Whilst there, the psychic said something like "i feel a familiar spirit in the room" and mentioned it was coming from around my partner, but not her specifically. Turns out she was pregnant. Anyway, 9 months passed, baby was born etc etc. Fat little grumpy bugger in his early days, never showed any affection or liked to smile.
He was at my partner's dad house, sitting on the couch with her and the dog, when all of a sudden he started giggling and smiling, reaching his hands out, towards the corner of the room. Going off his normal temperament, that was a little odd. Then the dog started growling and barking aggressively, towards the exact same spot in the room! Partner freaked and called me, and i freaked a bit as it was my grandma's 15 year anniversary since her passing (different grandma from above,). Over the next year or so, he constantly laughed and played with something in his room. Once he could start talking and walking, it's gotten worse. He used to tell us that a man watched him sleep in his cot, that there is a little girl that stands in our walk-in-wardrobe in our room as she's not allowed to leave, he runs into our room at all hours of the night screaming that someone wants to get him, told the ladies at kindy that "his friend" told him to cut mummy and daddy. All the stuff i figured was just an active imagination/maybe he'd snuck out of his room and seen us watching TV. The one that got me though, recently he was sitting on the couch watching TV with us, and then randomly stood up, grabbed his craft box, and walked out into the backyard. He sat outside on the pavement, putting stickers all over a piece of paper and was giggling like he was doing it with someone else. We walked out to check on him, and he looked up at us saying "I'm doing stickers with Mim, she's from Darwin".
This scared the crap out of me, and my whole family when i called them and told them because : when i was a kid, she used to get me to put stickers on everything because i was a terrible drawer, i called her Mim as a kid because it was close to Mum, and she was from Darwin. I'd never mentioned her name to him, where she was from or anything and he knew it all.
Combined with the weird giggles on her death anniversary right after he was born, I'm just royally freaked out by this and don't really know how to react/what to do/whether im just going crazy
Your son is a clairvoyant.
Buy him some tarot cards
A more long winded explanation - clairvoyance means “clear sight”. He can obviously hear and see spirits. The first thing you should teach him is the lesser pentagram of banishing to protect him from the bad ones (though technically all of them are bad - I’m talking about their intent).
Most of the time spirits love ******* with you. They’d get a real kick out of seeing you being freaked out.
