Possession & Afterlife

Well... okay, let's take this one at a time.
>ghosts
To the best of my knowledge, ghosts draw energy from heat or electricity when they can. So batteries can be found drained, or the infamous "cold spots" are felt where they're attempting to manifest.
>curses
Those draw upon the user, unless they invoke some kind of being.
(Extra thing, I thought you said "demons" here, and I was going to mention that they feed on negative energy. Many claims of demon "hauntings" start out benign, but get stronger as they start screwing with the people involved and getting them to turn on each other. I guess consider this a bonus.)
>posession
Well, in this case, the spirit or demon is just drawing upon the body it's inhabiting. Though I think it's supposed to start with the above. Supposedly it has to be "invited," and things just build up until it possesses the victim.

But you said "if they actually exist." As much as this shit fascinates me, I'm also a bit skeptical. All I can draw upon is what I've learned or guessed about the phenomena.

What personal experiences have you had, OP?

Thanks for your help. After the deaths of certain family members strange things always happen, usually after arguments or stress around the house. Things will fall over with nothing having affected it, objects will shake and in one particular case after a funeral for my grandfather a doorknob turned before the door closed itself. In terms of other experiences I personally haven't experienced anything severe but other family members that I trust not to make up bullshit, many report actual manifestations, seeing a person in the room that looked solid and spoke, then turning to see they were never there.

At a party everyone looked back on our house to see someone or something standing at a window and going back to find nobody there. a similar one was where my father and a group of his friends sat after reading a book on a devilish figure saw a sort of being pass through the halls, each one sat separate from one another and drew out variations of the same exact thing. Most of the strongest experiences were at one family home though.

I had also heard in many places that energy waves can cause many of the more common experiences, seeing things, hearing things, objects moving, ect. I'm not sure how true even this is but there is some plausible cause to these experiences.

Fuck it, I've got nothing better to do.
OK OP if you're really curios, why not try these things for yourself? If electricity and heat does it for them go get a bunch of heaters and electrical appliances put them in the places your family said things happened and see how different room temperatures change activity.

Thing is in your stories you never mention anyone feeling a chill before the event, so it sounds more like people were just seeing things after a traumatic loss.

Possession requires an absorption of the target
It requires 'overwriting' the victim

That would explain some, but not all were after loss, the party, the hall sighting, everything was mostly normal in those. The doorknob turning and objects falling weren't sightings though, those actually happened. I don't think there will be any answers though. I just wondered how things might get energy to do this but I got my answer from >>18275429
