Umm.......shit just got real. Something obviously doesn't want you to leave.

Or, more likely, his landlord DOES want him to leave so that he can rent to someone else or renovate or something, and it's much easier to scare a tenant into leaving willingly than it is to force someone out legally.


Or, maybe the doorknob just came loose too.

 

[StalkerUKCG]

is there anything more then just the face in the fireplace?

His knob fell was pulled off.

Spoiler

lucky bastard

 

[Cloud Strife]

Not too late for ghost hunters bruh. Never too late.

 

[ThePicard]

its nothing OP, this thread is not helping, its just feeding your imagination.

 

[Green Wiggly]

Did you take steps to make sure the ghost won't follow you to your new place?

 

[supergiz]

Did you take steps to make sure the ghost won't follow you to your new place?

Moving back in with the folks.

 

[Clydefrog]

Tell the ghost to make you dinner and you'll decide based on that whether you stay or go.

"This chicken is RAW!"

 

[Green Wiggly]

Moving back in with the folks.

You should probably do a cleansing so you don't put them in danger.

 

[RustyNails]

A knob simply does not fall off a door. OP, how tight was the knob attached?

That knob was almost glued on it was so tight. Which makes it falling off the more baffling

 

[Poyunch]

What if OP just lives in a really shitty apartment where homeless people live in between the walls and occasionally go inside?

It didn't fall off. That knob was pulled off. I was afraid of your story when I first read it, OP. But now I am convinced you have a malevolent entity that is tormenting you. Read my post from a few pages ago. I have experience with this. It's not pretty. And moving away probably will not solve it. You need to contact a priest or at least a shaman ASAP.

 

[EdibleExplosives]

The ghost of the surgeon will curse your pancreas. It's science.

That sounds so sp00ky, and yet scientifically sound.

Way to ruin the placebo effect of him moving out of the house!

This whole story is very creepy, I hope you get rid of whatever is doing this to you OP (ghost/unwanted roommate/landlord/rats/demon/stalker/paparazzi/your sleep-walking self).

 

[The Beard]

OP you need to place a bottle of ketchup and some fries in your apartment. Focus the camera on the fries while you're at work or asleep.

What is this, an episode of Scooby Doo?

"What's that Scoob? It was Old Man Johnson, the landlord, in a ghost costume trying to scare off his tenants!?"

 

[xxracerxx]

Just put in my notice that I'm not renewing my lease yesterday. Last night I exit my room to go to the restroom, look left and notice this.

Did they take your door frame and chain lock as well?

 

[SuperSah]

Can someone explain what happened with OP and this "Rivitur" dude?

Are you saying that my hypothesis is less plausible than....ghosts ripped off his doorknob?

 

[super-heated plasma]

You need more than one camera running. Try to get a couple more going in different parts of the apartment.

 

[Jayof9s]

More plausible than ghosts, less plausible than any number of ways an old-as-hell looking doorknob could have fallen off. Including a strong gust of wind.

Can we get Lionel Mandrake up in here?

I really want this.

I realized this thread grew to 1,000 responses and would like a summary as to why that is.

 

[Fireblend]

Yeah, best case scenario, this is a simple case of confirmation bias. Like, the other day my shower head started leaking cold water and when I brought it to the shop, the dude told me it was as if someone had ripped off some plastic piece that's supposed to be stuck to one side. Spooooky? No, but compounded with other "weird" events over a short period of time it turns into a pattern that might spook someone out. If you think about it, it doesn't sound any more or less weird than an old door knob that fell from a door.

Or, worst case scenario, someone is messing with you for some unknown reason OP. I would be worried about that.

 

[usernamechange]

Thanks mom I'll be home at 7

I think the real thing we should be focusing on is that Rivitur's mom apparently calls him stupid.

 

[ilium]

It's mostly people sharing ghost stories while waiting for an update by the OP.
Then an occasional and inevitable ghosts-are-totally-real-no-they-are-not debate.

That's pretty much it, not much worth to read unless you like ghost stories.

 

[J_Lee]

Its not ghosts (first thing that came to mind)

 

[Majestad]

To those who have experienced paranormal things, what do you think about the naysayers? I find it really disrespectful when someone accuses somebody of being crazy or "is all in your head" to justify weird shit that has happened to many people, many cases without logical explanation.

I don't pay them any mind I posted two stories in this thread that my dad experienced in his life and his mind is perfectly fine.

He's so overrated. Not even funny.
The first few weren't bad. Now it's too forced.

Nah, I don't get upset when people don't believe me because I can't prove it or explain it for certain myself. I know what I saw and experienced over the course of several years, but I can't explain how those things happened. Not with any certainty anyway. "Ghosts did it" is my best explanation, but I acknowledge that in reality I have no serious idea how or why they happened. Ghosts are simply a cop out explanation, but I can offer no other theory that covers all of it.

Still, I'm kinda glad I got to experience what I did. I just wish I had proof or could explain it for certain.

[Joe Shlabotnik]

Taking you at your word about all of this, OP, a ghost would be your happiest explanation, and it probably isn't, and yes you should leave.

Meh.. I can't be stuffed changing avatars. It's from 2 Christmases ago.
It's not like I'm going around posting Banderas everywhere like it's a new joke.

 

[Octavia]

When I was in school, I was at my locker after a ridiculously bad day, and joking with my friend who I just made amends with, I said "This day cannot possibly get any worse" and then immediately after, I go to open my locker and the handle pulls of leaving me without access.

Sometimes folks, shit happens, even if it seems out of a movie.

 

[Newlove]

It looks to me that someone was previously entering the place whilst you were away for shelter, and perhaps tried to get in again last night. Stay safe dude.

 

[bigmit3737]

What did I miss so far? Last I read, he had set up a web camera.

 

[Log4Girlz]

OP, get laid. Demons and poltergeists only mess with virgins.

OP took off his door knob, posted the pic on GAF, and immediately everybody on GAF is like "GHOST CONFIRMED"

Whew mystery solved. I hate it when ghosts make me take pictures of my knob too

 

[Relativ9]

I'll bet you 10000$ that it isn't.

 

[Deleted member 20920]

OP, get laid. Demons and poltergeists only mess with virgins.

Then OP will be hunted down by serial killers and slashers. He's already stepped into paranormal land. He can't win.

Next topic OP has, once he moves back to his parents, will be about him being alone and receiving weird phone calls and getting notes about they know what he did last summer. And then all his friends will die one by one.

I forgot about those guys

I guess one solution to that problem is to make sure you have lots of disposable friends. They always kill everyone before they get to you!
