You're just not 'sensitive' enough. And that proves something or other.

Actually... I’ve had a few “paranormal” experiences, it’s part of the reason I became interested in scepticism. Of course I’ve always found the rational explanation for these experiences to be more plausible than “ghost”, “demon” or UFO.

I’ve personally never had an experience connected with South Bridge (further than one odd coincidence), nor heard of a new story in that whole time.

I get massively "spooked" watching creepy films, I hide behind cushions, I scream at the appropriate times, I can't go to the loo on my own during or after, I swear I'm never watching another every time I watch one. Yet I've never had an experience that anyone, even a person with a belief in it, could call paranormal.

Dracula lived in my woodshed. But, if you filled the wheelbarrow real fast and ran back to the house, that fucker wouldn't get you. I'm still here to tell the tale...

I remember scaring myself shitless as a kid, I could turn the most innocuous thing into something terrifying. There was an old derelict castle near where I grew up, complete with it's resident ghosts. There was a White Lady (she gets around I think) reputed to haunt the place, story was she had been chained up in the place and died so you hear the clanking of chains then see her ghost in a white dress. We used to go up there as kids and all it took was someone to say "Did you hear that?" and we'd run all the way home screaming and crying. I hadn't actually heard a fucking thing

My house mate loves all those "scary movies". I usually just fulminate in a corner trying not to let my disgust be that obvious.
