The cinema has greatly influenced the suggestion of people around what are known as paranormal cases. The commonly known Poltergeists are inexplicable phenomena that navigate between reality and fiction, where science is unable to explain and suggestion plays a fundamental role.
We are going to review some of the most famous and strange paranormal cases in history. Many of them have occurred in Spain.
The faces of Bélmez
It is, perhaps, the most mediatic of all of them. Several faces of unknown origin appeared on the walls and on the floor of a house in Bélmez (Jaén). The phenomenon began to occur in 1971 and there has been great controversy about its origin and veracity.
For many lovers of parasychology, it is the most important paranormal phenomenon of the 20th century in Spain . For others, it was simply all a fraud. The truth is that technical analyzes have been carried out on site with first-rate scientists and it has never been concluded how those faces came to Bélmez’s house.
Today it is one of the tourist attractions in the area.
Room 428
One of the most exciting cases that has sparked many investigations in the United States. It is a room at the University of Ohio where strange phenomena have occurred: from occult sessions, the appearance of faces and even disappearances and deaths.
According to sources, a student died inside this room while performing an act of occultism to contact the dead, so for many experts of the paranormal, it is cursed. The room has been closed for decades.
Granada Provincial Council
Another of the most famous paranormal cases in our country is what happened in the old Granada Provincial Council located in the center of the Andalusian city.
In the middle of Mesones street in the Granada capital, this building was inhabited by ghosts, or that is what the workers themselves claimed. According to the security guards and workers of the Granada Provincial Council, during the nights the lights turned on by themselves, the stairs moved or some have even claimed that they suffered bites and hair pulling from strangers.
Researchers of the paranormal claim that it is a cursed place because during construction work, human remains of children were discovered buried in the walls.
Rancho Skinwalker
One of the scariest places we can find in the United States. It is about a ranch in Utah where, in 1996, the Sherman family witnessed all kinds of strange phenomena : UFO sightings, crop circles, mutilation of animals or creatures that changed shape.
The owners, Terry Sherman and his wife Gwen Sherman, sold the property a year after buying it because of the terror they were experiencing.
