 | In general, I think people are too afraid of the paranormal. It's understandable: People are afraid of the unknown -- especially when we're talking about ghosts and such.

You still have a couple of weeks to get your photos in... just don't forget! | |
Not All Shadow People Are Scary
The vast majority of shadow people sightings are described as scary, creepy, or even evil. Often, there is no real reason to attribute these negative aspects to the entities; it's usually just a feeling. This is only natural since the sighting of something dark and unknown instinctively arouses fear in the human mind: we fear what we do not understand. Yet, just as there are reports of good, benign, and evil ghosts, we can also assume that there is a range of "personality" in shadow people. Although they represent a small number, some people say they have gotten good vibes from them or even positive experiences with shadow people. Read about some of these encounters.
| Experiment: How to Practice Automatic Writing
Here's something I would like to invite you all to try and then post your results, if any. Automatic writing is an old form of divination in which messages seem to come out of nowhere through your hand and onto paper.

It might not be easy, and you might not get results right away, but I think we'd all be interested to see how we can do with this experiment.
