Extraordinary Experience of the Month
Over the last seventy years thousands of people have written to the Rhine Research Center to share their unusual experiences. Many were collected by Dr. Louisa Rhine who felt that these stories collectively provided a glimpse into a reality difficult to explain away simply as a series of mistakes of testimony, over interpretation, imagination, or coincidence.

This is an unsolicited experience submitted to us recently by a visitor to our web site.

November 2010
Physical After Death Contacts:

One night I was laying on my bed, listening to the radio and looking at pictures of Tim. I was feeling really down and I suddenly noticed that I could not hear my radio anymore, so I got up and could see it was still on, but the volume had been turned all the way down, so I turned it back up, not thinking too much of it, then went back to looking at pictures. Again, I could not hear the radio, got up again and by this time I am thinking "Tim"...turned it back up... rested once again on my bed to find a few minutes later my radio turned completely off by itself. I was very happy, knowing Tim was aware I was looking over pictures, thinking of him, letting me know he is near... This happened quite often after asking for a sign, I would come in to find my CD player on all by itself.

It was about 6 months after Tim passed and I was cleaning out his drawers for
the first time. It was so hard for me to do and I felt my heart was breaking, when suddenly out of nowhere, a talking picture frame that had been sitting on his dresser for 3 years went off all by itself, it said, "Happy 34th Birthday, Mom!". And that sign made me know beyond a doubt that Tim was there, perfect timing, doing something so hard on me and still sits there to this day and has never gone off again!

Now this one was most amazing and very spiritual. Tim had told my mom I would get a sign on this day, and the night before around 10 pm I got it. I was standing outside, the black night was black as could be and I could hear these 2 owls like right in my backyard just hooting back and forth, it was so loud and magical sounding and suddenly the one flew off and landed in the tree right in front of me, I knew this because I could hear it's wings, then it continued to hoot back and forth to the one left in the backyard, (I even called my son out to hear it, the sound was so loud) and then suddenly right in front of us both you could hear the one in the tree fly off and when I looked in the direction of where I thought it was going, all I saw was this
round ball of light. This was so symbolic to me like, Me and Tim were together and he left and became this ball of light!!

After Tim first passed he would hit my bed, I would wake up with a startle, but it was weird, I could visualize Tim doing that even though I could not see him. This happened almost every night for 2 weeks until one night it was so hard that it startled me and I looked under the bed, through the house and he stopped after that.

When asked for permission to quote from her report, Anne replied,

Yes, that would be fine with me. I would love that. One of my wishes is that people
trust what they see and feel after losing a loved one. Knowing they can and will send signs, but only if your ready and believe them. Oh, and guess what? Last Thurs. I was sitting here at my laptop, music playing, getting ready to do my hair as I do every morning, when suddenly my radio turns down, I am thinking, "What in the world". The song, "You're amazing just the way you are" was playing, so I look and it seemed as if the volume was turned down, so I turn it back up...a few minutes later, it turns completely off!! I knew then, it was Tim. I simply turned it back on and it was fine, lol.

Now I do this routine most mornings and that doesn't happen, I think the last time it happened I might have written you about, when I was looking at photos, so almost year. I was very happy. I trust it, I know it is Tim. So yes, I would love for you to use it.

October 2010

I came upon your website and I would like to share some of my personal experiences hoping they might be of help for your investigations.

I'm no psychic and I have no special abilities of any sort, I'm a regular average nobody like most people on this earth. When I was 14 I traveled to North Virginia to meet my father's siblings for the first time in my life. My stay in NV is not important but on one afternoon I was in my room and I started thinking about my Aunt Piro, my father's eldest and only female sister, and I got a weird feeling in my chest kind of like anxiety and for some reason I saw her in my mind as a silhouette of a woman walking side by side with a small boy holding his hand. That was the impression I got, but for some reason the weird feeling didn't stop there. It was really making me uneasy, and so I came to the conclusion that I had to go upstairs and casually ask aunt Piro why every time I thought of her I pictured her walking with a little boy while holding his hand. I left my room and made my way to the second floor to find my aunt but what surprised me was the fact that when I made it to the second floor Aunt Piro was already waiting for me and before I could say anything she said, "I have something to tell you."

We sat down by the kitchen table, and she told me a story nobody had told me about. When Piro was about 11 she and the family had gone to a river to spend the afternoon. Piro and her 3 year old brother went in the river. The current was a bit strong and the water a bit murky. Aunt Piro said that she felt something pulling at her leg and she got scared and tried to get it to let go of her as best she could, she didn't realize it was her baby brother who was drowning at the time and trying to get her attention. Her brother drowned.

She stopped the story at this point, but I had gotten my answer , and I also felt without thinking about it directly, that she had never married because she had always blamed herself for his death. The image I got in my head meant she had been walking though her life carrying this and she would do so until her death. It was not like reflecting on what I had just heard and thinking about he subject, it was more like an instantaneous feeling of knowing something for certain.

All I said to her after hearing this was " Now I get it." She got up, and then went to her room as usual. I got up and went about my day as if nothing had happened. I was happy from having been released from the anxiety, and didn't think much of this until recently, 20 years later.

I was young then so everything seemed to be normal but now that I think back on it, I keep thinking if Aunt Piro could feel my anxiety at all? Did she know that I was coming to ask her, and then decided to tell me seeing it was inevitable to avoid the subject? But how did she know? And also I can't explain the feeling of mutual understanding I felt after she told me her story.

I have so many questions about that day, and about a lot of other weird unexplainable things that have happened to me, I can't write them all in one email so please let me know if this is the kind of thing that would help your research.

Best regards

Thanks for sending in this account that we will gladly add to our files.

Your report is more complex than what we usually hear about because of it involving both you and your aunt seeming to "know" something at the same time. Yours could be telepathy from Aunt Piro's thoughts of the moment, or somehow by dipping back into the past, while Aunt Piro's actions suggested that she somehow " knew " what you were thinking at that precise moment as if by telepathy of her own. And this does make it an especially interesting experience. One that a child wouldn't question at the time but to our adult mind would be very puzzling as we try to make sense of it in terms of our conventional knowledge.
