Weird Place

> Nestled among the East San Jose foothills with only a two-lane road leading to the park through the mountains, the Joseph D. Grant County Park can easily be missed. This park boasts a beautiful house coupled with a few other out-buildings renovated to remind visitors of the days of yesteryear. The house has period pieces of furniture, an all wood foyer, hardwood floors in the rooms….and residents they never expected. For years the park rangers never questioned the footsteps, door slams, noises and moving things from the corners of their eyes. They merely chalked it up to someone else being in the house. When visitors stated that they saw someone or heard something in the house, the park rangers...

Seldom, it's hard to live with uncertainty especially when you expect for sooner outcomes.

Also, doubts and pressures cannot be avoided as these are part of the trials associated with successful and well-defined solutions.

Marlene Perez introduced high school student Daisy Giordano in the book Dead is the New Black. At first, Daisy was the only "normal" in a family of psychics. By the end of the book, though, Daisy began to find her psychic powers. The story continued in Dead is a State of Mind. In this third and strangest installment in Marlene Perez's "Dead" series, Daisy Giordano (now 17) comes face to face with a man who looks exactly like her long-missing father, Rafe. Where has he been all these years, and why hasn't he tried to contact Daisy, her mother or her two sisters? The answer may have something to do with the sugar-craving doppelgangers* running around town (especially the area of Nightshade around the...

I used to watch with extreme regularity the old TV show "X-Files." I've always been interested in strange UFO paranormal type phenomenon, at least from a fictional stand point. I've always enjoyed movies and TV shows that explored these areas. Growing up, I couldn't get enough of Rod Serling's Twilight Zone. One of the reasons I enjoyed X-Files so much is because of different perspectives of the two main characters. There was Agent Fox Scully, who would believe in almost anything supernatural, without any proof. Then there was Agent Dana Scully, who was a medical doctor, and always had a scientific explanation for everything. As I move through this journey that is life, I always try to employ this...

Have you ever said, "I'm not psychic, but I can be quite intuitive at times!" I've heard that statement many times. It must be a common sentiment. There is a difference in the connotations of these two terms. People tend to describe intuition as natural, whereas references to psychic often involve supernatural references. In her book, Natural-Born Intuition: How to Awaken and Develop Your Inner Wisdom, Lauren Thibodeau describes psychic as a process of reaching outside of ourselves, while she describes intuition as a process of going within. Her distinction reminds me of the difference between facts (coming from outside) and wisdom (coming from within). Sometimes Edgar Cayce distinguished intuition...

One of the biggest myths to evolve in the growing annals of new age lore is that psychic ability is the sole province of the mind. Our language reflects it in terms like "mental telepathy" and "mind reading". When we think of ESP (extra sensory perception), we generally think "beyond the senses". But what usually passes for extraordinary mental ability to see distant in time and space actually has an important physical component. The Body's Story So much emphasis has been put on "seeing" that we overlook the part that the body plays in communication. We, like all living things, are information processing organisms. The autonomic nervous system is a conduit for information passing through our...

Some time back my father narrated me an interesting tale. It appears when he was a student of Government College, Hoshiarpur he decided to go home to his village about 15 miles away during the week end. As it was 9 pm the last bus had left, therefore he and a friend of his named Harbans decided to walk down to the village. The duo started walking to the village. It was a dark night and a cold icy wind blew as it was November and winter was setting in. Mid way to the village there is a small rivulet called a "CHO" in the local language. As the two approached the rivulet my father says he heard horse's hooves on the earth. After some time it appeared that the rider had fallen from the horse. Three...

Psychic energy and psychic ability is a wide subject to explore. When we look at these concepts we come to find many different views. Let's say you are living in western society, then feelings you may have on psychic energy and psychic ability might be one of similar to; psychics are able receive messages from God or angels or spiritual guides. Perhaps you might be living in eastern part of the globe, where by your understanding of this universal psychic energy might be one of; psychic energy is essence and the vital energy (chi), which exists and governs the flow of life and the universe at large. Or you may have a different idea on psychic energy and its subtle workings. Perhaps you may even be...

Since "The Lord of the Rings" trilogy became a huge blockbuster hit, sales of epic fantasy stories, or also known as high fantasy stories, have tremendously risen. People with disperse backgrounds and interests, who have left the world of fairy tales to move to the real one a long time ago, found themselves visiting their local bookstores or ordering online the masterpieces of J.R.R. Tolkien, among other epic fantasy writers. Those who visualized how Frodo looked like prior to the release of the first of the trilogy films were annoyed with the hysteric reaction of the vast public. For them, epics or high fantasy stories are part of a literature world that one has to be induced and explore in detail...

rt --> Ancient Greek thinkers imagined that all bodies consisted of tiny particles called atoms. They maintained that these atoms shaped the universe and all living things, without intention or direction and without being subjected to any conscious intervention. According to this belief, matter was timeless and eternal, and nothing beyond matter could exist. Supernatural events that intervened in entities' behavior and altered their structures was sheer superstition, unacceptable. All axioms and principles were based on the assumption that matter was an absolute reality. Since matter was eternal, the universe must be eternal as well, and that idea served as the foundation of atheism. If the entire...

Horror movies are famous all over the world for their essence of thrill, shock and suspense. It is violent, and enjoyment of them depends on an enjoyment of violence and is. All of the Characters from horror movies are important, but the BEST HEROES have a special place in our hearts. In horror film plots, evil forces, events, or characters, sometimes of supernatural origin, intrude into the everyday world. Early horror films often drew inspiration from characters and stories from classic literature, such as Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, The Wolf Man, The Phantom of the Opera and Dr. Later horror films, in contrast, often drew inspiration from the insecurities of life since World War Two...

Life can bring all sorts of unexpected excitement. Theft, vandalism, and intentional physical damage happen more often than we'd like as well, and insurance companies pay out when they have to for all of it. The longer you go without making a claim, the lower your premiums will be. You can't choose whether or not you'll fall off of your front steps when a pigeon spits in your eye. Unlikely? It's a real occurrence. In the meantime, however, you can choose to save money by getting your home insurance quotes online. Pigeons can be the least of your problems. Cows and deer have been accused of ruining tires, window seals, and windshield wipers, licking them for the salt. Dogs are a wonderful source of...

We are now in a season of great grace. God is inserting into the earth His glory and favour. Anyone who will turn their hearts to Him will find provision, strength, healing, freedom, restoration and so much more. In fact, He says that whatever we believe, ask and pray for; we will receive. God has opened His arms and the door to the supernatural realms of Heaven. You can experience His Presence and see your life go to new levels. What will that look like? I am seeing some enormous things coming through the Prophetic realm. Prepare your heart to receive. God has already predicted in the scriptures that He would so saturate the earth with His glory that it would be similar to the waters covering the...

It turns out that the idea of doomsday (1) in or around 2012 is not far fetched at all. Although it won't happen quite like the movie, but rather the old fashion way - war. The movie "2012" is coming out in theaters on November 13, 2009. Based on the movie trailer (2), it looks like the Earth will be destroyed in 2012 by meteorites, earthquakes, giant waves and more. The question is - could it really happen? There is no particular reason that the Earth should experience a series of supernatural events in 2012. Yes, the Mayan calendar ends on December 21, 2012, but there is absolutely no evidence that date means anything in real life. Unfortunately, real life is going to be even scarier than the...

Getting a psychic reading is a lot like going deep into your spirit and pulling out supernatural events. When I was younger, I used to sit back and think about the world in new ways. My friends used to laugh at me and say, "You are a day dreamer." I did not care though because my life was about to become more balanced and happy. I know that people all over the world feel like they understand the universe in their own way. My friends know that I am a professional psychic reader and they have told me in the past that I give great readings. I started out by giving them free online. Many people choose to give free readings out because they know that they will always be true to their spiritual calling. I...

Gothic literature got its start in 1764 when Horace Walpole wrote "The Castle of Otranto." Walpole's story contained all the elements that define the genre. Throughout the years, many authors have taken their stab at writing Gothic literature, putting their own unique stamp on it. Ann Radcliffe, writing in 1794, gave the genre a sense of legitimacy when she questioned the supernatural elements, explaining them away as natural causes. She also introduced the brooding villain, who by the end of the story, is revealed to the hero. Mary Shelley, the author of Frankenstein, was definitely influenced by Gothic elements, but her novel is considered the one of the first science fiction novels to be written...

Watching movies of any genre - romantic, comedy or horror is a fun experience. Among these, horror film is watched by many as it is chilling, haunting and scary. Horror films are usually based on the imaginary world full of incredible incidents and mysterious events. Sometimes, the storyline of these films is influenced by psychological themes, creepy ideas and supernatural science as well. A horror movie shows the unearthly existence of mysterious characters possessing supernatural powers or ghostly nature. The makers of horror flicks exhaust their imagination in creating the most horrifying situation in order to make the films more frightful and interesting. For the production of the most popular...

Horror movies are basically scary, chilling and daunting. They are generally based on imagination of incredible happenings and mysterious events, also sometimes based on scientific experimentation and psychological statistics of eerie ideas. Most of them are made with false vision of existence of mysterious characters possessing supernatural powers or ghostly attitude. Horror film makers try to use most of their imagination in creating the situation in horrified manner in order to make the film more frightful and interesting at the same time, since the audience find illogical events more interesting and yielding with conscious mind and zeal to destroy the demon. Hollywood is popular for production...

GOD'S WORD: BLACK LEVIATHAN TO STORM (FLOOD) & OVERTHROW COUNTRY Russian Submarine(s) spotted on East Coast nytimes.com/2009/08/05/world/05patrol.html This is not about black, white, christian, muslim, Bible, Quran, Hebrew, Greek or any other divisive communications. This article is about God's Word which has been repeatedly fulfilled since given in 2006/2007. I'm going to show you from your daily news, history, and the Bible what God has determined for the future of this country and the world. In Bible times, God chose Nebuchadnezzar (King of Babylon) to overthrowm judge and punish most of the then world. At some later point God then turned His judgments upon Babylon. For all intense purposes...

The Prophetic pace is quickening. The momentum of Prophetic fulfilment is surging forward as Heaven comes into earth. There will be very important supernatural releases of power as we close out 2008. In this article I want to highlight some of those events that will affect those with listening ears and responsive hearts. This is what I see occurring during October, November and December. God is releasing a calling and the ability for spiritual mentoring. Spiritual fathers and mothers will be prompted and released by God into a new season of nurturing others in their spiritual walk. This calling will not be age focused but will come to young and old. This ability will supernaturally infuse many with...

Greater Light will Triumph over Darkness. As we wrap up another year and steady ourselves for the New Year there are some significant events that will impact the world we live in. The world you live in may be uncertain but you can have confidence as you step into another year because God remains a rock solid foundation for all that will trust in Him. The degree to which you do this will have a great impact on what your journey will be like as 2009 unfolds before you. This is what I hear the Holy Spirit saying for 2009. There will be opportunities financially for many to gain back what may have been lost. Buy low and sell high. There will be decisions offered to you that will be sent of God...

One of the most foremost questions arising from audiences today concerns the methods that God uses to speak personally. How does God speak to us today? Often, I have heard the frustration in the voices of those who genuinely want to know the answer to this question because they have come to a plateau in their spiritual journey with God. Prophetic Seers often feel like they have hit a wall or barrier and can not seem to move into a deeper relationship with God. The majority want that deeper relationship but do not want to fall into superstition or delve into questionable occult methods. This article will summarize what I have found in my search to answer that question. Each of the following 15...

If you can imagine "The X-Files" with Richard Gere and Laura Linney in the lead roles, then you have a fairly accurate description of what to expect from "The Mothman" Prophecies. Based on events that occurred in Point Pleasant, West Virginia in the United States, this effectively creepy, but meandering piece of work follows the investigation in to a series of paranormal occurrences in the small town by Washington journalist John Klein as he is mysteriously drawn in to the strange things going on to the residents, who are otherwise normal and sane people. The film is very atmospheric, going for spine-tingling chills rather than cattle-prod horror movie scares, and the performances of the two stars...

Chances are you don't like the idea of being scared. It brings the hairs on the back of our necks, it gives us a really uncomfortable feeling in our bellies and in those rare cases causes us to really soil our pants. But if fear brings out the worst in us, what accounts for this fascination that we have for horror? Every month dozens of horror movies are released all around the world. Horror even has its own holiday in the ever venerable Halloween. Some of the greatest works of art and literature were true tales of horror. If fear is such a bad thing to feel, then what accounts for this fascination? And there are just some places that strike us with mortal fear more than others. These are the...

The strength of a city can sometimes be measured by its ghosts. The larger cities are often also some of the oldest places, or at least the ones with the longer histories of human inhabitation. It takes human presence to make a human absence, and that's where the good ghost stories come from. Old buildings also help quite a bit, and if some of these are abandoned, that's even better. Anything that increases the dark and creepy appeal will invite more ghosts, or at least invite the stories. Whatever the belief systems happen to be, from true believer to absolute skeptic, it's very apparent that human imagination plays a very large part in the story aspect of these phenomena, and we're naturally more...

The old hag syndrome is one of the most common psychological problems. The victims who suffer from this problem suddenly wake up and feel that they can not move. They can hear, smell, see as well as feel but are not able to move. Some of the victims also feel a great weight on their chest. Some of them start to believe that there is an evil or sinister presence in the room. This further frightens them and increases their immobility. The phenomenon is called so because of the superstitious belief that it is or a witch is riding the chest of the victim in such a case, causing them to be immobile. This superstitious explanation is not taken very seriously now days. Still the frightening nature of the...

MODE of Cosmic Therapy: Lies, Lies and More Elaborate Lies The majority of human beings believe they tell the truth, most of the time. Few will admit they lie, most of the time. And none will disclose just how often, when and how they twist the truth ‘a little' to suit their needs. They convince themselves they are not really lying, when they know, distorted versions of the same story are, in fact, deceptive. But, we are curious creatures. Adept at swindling ourselves to favor a certain idolized image we have created for/of ourselves. One that we must maintain consistently in as much as our sovereign power allows. Hah! How utterly ridiculous and futile are our attempts to portray an untruth so...

Our Lady Who Cried You cannot visit Syracuse or Siracusa as it is known in Italy, without visiting the Shrine of Our Lady Who Cried. Quite honestly, we were more than a little skeptical, until we discovered all the invaluable, indisputable scientific evidence assuring us it was legitimate. Like Bishop Ettore Baranzini, we have always had reservation when it came to alleged apparitions and purported miracles. Only when Mother Church verifies do we write and make programs. Our story begins in Syracuse on the 29th of August, 1953, Five months before, Antonina and Angelo Jannuso were married. Because they were a struggling young couple, with Angelo a poor worker earning the barest minimum wages, they...

There are several different haunted ghost tours that are offered in St. Augustine, Florida. This particular city is considered to be the oldest city located in the entire nation. If you are interested in old ghost towns, this one is likely to draw your attention. Throughout the day, you will find several sightseeing trolleys and horse and carriage rides roaming the streets teaching the visitors about the colorful history associated with the city. However, as the sun sets, a new side of St. Augustine comes to life. This is the spiritual side where stories of the spirits that wander the streets and haunt the buildings are shared. If you are interested in participating in one of the haunted ghost tours...

Many individuals that experience unusual phenomenon in their homes often ask themselves, "Is my house haunted?" The truth of the matter is, since the release of popular televised shows such as the Ghost Hunters TV show, A Haunting, and Ghost Adventures, many individuals are starting to attest unusual sounds, strange smells, unexplained fluctuations in temperatures, and even electrical complications to be real ghosts in their home. While all of these are signs of a potential haunting, it is important to know that they could be related to common issues typically experienced by a homeowner. In this guide, you will be introduced to the top 3 signs that your house may be haunted. 1. As mentioned...

Life outside of our solar system Do UFOs really exist? If so, why is it that there is no physical evidence? What are the odds of other planets harboring life? For centuries mankind has been asking questions about extra terrestrial beings. At first, sightings were attributed to deities or angels and more recently as UFO's. It is not until the advent of modern technology and flight that we have started to label celestial apparitions as UFO's (unidentified flying objects). What are the odds of life developing on other worlds? Very high indeed. Some research has been done by Stephen Hawkins and a multitude of world renowned scientists. Logical calculations have brought them to the conclusion that life...

It's really simple, yet the most important thing I can tell you about faith. Faith is a human process (as anything is "process"). God was recognized by man - that perfectionist control freak man is - to take care of those things man had no control over (all the world's troubles). But man is stubborn - he tells himself (herself) that any little thing that happens in the world is a result of his own ignorance, and being an idealist/perfectionist he bangs into walls trying to control every event. But he cannot. And his worry over these troubles creates over 90% of his problems. He dwells on past mistakes which have no relevance anymore. He dwells in future events which may or may not occur. And what...

If you love reading books, don't miss reading this one, "The Song Of Bernadette" written by Franz Werfel. It is a beautiful, magnificent book that will just fill your heart with wonder. I love this book and I thoroughly enjoyed my read. This book will touch you in many ways and will lift your spirits up. Truly moving and life-changing. The story of "The Song Of Bernadette" is an inspiration. The book is about the story of a simple peasant girl who lived in the little town of Lourdes, France. In February 11, 1858 while gathering firewood at the foot of the hill in Massabielle (the rock) with her sister Marie and a classmate named Jean Abadie, the 14-year old Bernadette Soubirous, saw an apparition of...

As I am from Portsmouth, England I thought it may be of interest to write about the oldest house in Portsmouth which is also the most haunted house in England called Wymering Manor House. Although most of the current structure dates back to the 16th century, the manor goes back much further. Records show the first owner of Wymering Manor was King Edward the Confessor in 1042 AD and then after the Battle of Hastings it fell into the hands of King William the Conqueror until 1084 AD. The house has been altered and renovated continually over the centuries, yet remarkably it has retained materials dating back to medieval and even ancient Roman times. Having changed ownership many times over these...

Personally I love being scared silly and a spine tingling ghost movie works for me. Of all the top horror movies genre out there like; vampires, zombies, killer tomatoes, the eerie, transparent ghoul that is floating around the room and whispering warnings to you in the dark, ghost movies are the best! The love for a good ghost movie came about for me at a tender young age...thanks to two cousins! It was a crisp fall day when I, at an impressionable age of eight or nine was dropped off at my grandparent's farm for a weekend stay. My bratty two older cousins were staying there also. For sleeping, the three of us shared two feather mattress beds in the open basement of the old farmhouse. That was...

Arizona's Grand Canyon is an awesome spectacle. The canyon's sheer size is enough to make any observer stop and take a moment to reflect. In such an inspiring place, it is no surprise that over the years the Canyon has attracted its share of folklore and local legends. Stories such as these add an interesting dimension to the canyon's already impressive landscape. The Havasupai History According to the Havasupai people, who live in the village of Supai and care for the nearby Havasu Falls, even the canyon's formation is a mystical subject. In Havasupai tradition, before mankind there were two gods who inhabited the earth, a god of good and a god of evil. Tochapa, the god of good had a daughter who...

London has the title of being the most haunted city in Britain and this aspect of the city's heritage is playing an ever increasing role on the numbers of tourists visiting Britain's capitol. "Haunted London" is now a tourist industry in itself and you can take a guided tour around several of the city's most haunted spots during the day, or better still, after dark. London's history is both romantic and sordid, so it is no surprise that haunting and ghosts play an active part in many unusual and often chilling stories. The city's ghosts and hauntings include those seeking revenge and those simply wandering aimlessly around their former parishes. Did you know? London has more reported ghost sightings...

Why pray the rosary when you can pray straight to Our Lord? Why recite the rosary to a mere human person when you can go straight to God? The Catholic Church teaches many reasons why we should value the rosary and recite it diligently every day.  As a point of fact, next to the Holy Mass, the rosary is the most beneficial Catholic prayer. The Blessed Virgin Mary herself requested that we pray the holy rosary, promising great graces to those who say it regularly and devoutly. In many of her apparitions all throughout the world, the Virgin Mary has specifically requested that the rosary be prayed as frequently as possible.  Our Mother moreso emphasizes that we pray it every day with the family...

The Song of Bernadette is a dramatization of Franz Werfel's Popular book about Bernadette Soubirous, who had visions of the blessed Virgin Mary in Lourdes. Bernadette was a pious, honest and simple child. She was quite slow in learning and even by the age of 14 she had not learned her Catechism (knowledge of Catholicism) Despite ill health she worked hard in helping out her impoverished parents. One day while collecting firewood Bernadette had a vision of a "most beautiful lady" in the grotto of Massabielle just outside of Lourdes. Her first vision lasted for nearly 15 mins and she describes the lady as being small but beautiful beyond belief. Initially she told her sister but asked her to keep it a...

The Blessed Mother appeared to three children in Fatima in 1917. Our Lady made three requests one of which was penance. As with Lent, a period of penance, it becomes worth the discussion to see how Our Lady, Penance and the Rosary all tie together. When we look at penance and its use in the Gospels it was used to turn way from and bring life back to God. Thematically as well as the Gospels, the apparitions of Our Lady have also spoke of atonement, turning away from sin and praying the Rosary. And Fatima was a striking reminder of that. The Blessed Mother said that men needed to change their lives and ask for forgiveness for his sins. Sr Lucia who was one of the children the Blessed Mother appeared...

If you are looking for a really ghostly place, you must visit St. Augustine. Located along the coast of Florida, this old city literally reeks of the paranormal. Throughout the course of its history, St. Augustine has been popular for its ghosts. A large number of paranormal investigators and researchers agree that the America's oldest city, St. Augustine in Florida, is home to the largest number of ghosts in the nation. More ghosts have been sighted and more paranormal encounters have been experienced here than any other part of America. Moreover, the spirits are exceptionally powerful in St. Augustine owing to city's violent history of more than four centuries. Two places in this coastal city are...

Many people question the existence of God due to the fact that we have no proof of his/her existence. It is this lack of faith that can drive a person's conscience or moral compass off course. Medjugorje is a town located in western Herzegovina located in Bosnia and Herzegovina. The small town has roughly over four thousand people. Whenever people here the word Medjugorje, most would automatically think of three words, Blessed Virgin Mary. It is this town that has touched the hearts of many and will continue to do so in the future. The world changed on June 24, 1981. Six people from this small village started receiving messages from the Virgin Mary. Their names are Ivan, Jakov, Marija, Mirjana...

Mammoth Cave, the longest cave system in the world, consists of 367 miles of passage ways with more being discovered all the time. The cave system is actually many cave systems that connect at some point underground. Among the attractions of these cave system are limestones riddled with crinoid, blastoid, gastropod, and shark teeth, and other Mississippian fossils. Satan spar gypsum, calcite, mirabilite, aragonite, nitratine, and other mineral deposits lie within the labyrinth of tunnels. A myriad life forms roam in and around the caves. The most mysterious of the features of the Mammoth cave systems are the ghosts that roam the sinuous passages and caverns. Some parts of the caves have...

Padre Pio was truly a servant of God. He had a lifelong love affair with Our Lord Jesus in the Eucharist. To him, the Eucharist was the center of all spiritual benefits. It was the life breath of the soul. We believe the Lord gave him an insight as to the power and the magnitude of the Eucharist, from a very early age. As a young man, before he entered the priesthood, he spent hours in the church, adoring Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament. After his ordination, he took a long time for the Consecration of the Mass, to the point where parishioners complained about all the time he spent, in ecstasy, before the bread and wine as they became the Body and Blood of Our Lord Jesus. He had to control himself...

A Bush that doesn't Burn When Moses came nearer to Mount Horeb he looked up to see a strange sight - in the distance a bush seemed to be on fire. Yet the bush was not consumed by the fire - it was a veritable "smokeless fire". The Bible states "And the angel of the LORD appeared to him in a flame of fire out of the midst of a bush; and he looked, and lo, the bush was burning, yet it was not consumed." As Moses approached, God tells Moses to remove his sandals as the ground he was standing on was holy. The "burning bush" has all the hallmarks of cold plasma - like the auroras which appear around the North and South poles of the Earth. Interestingly Moses was asked to take off his sandals because he...

For hundreds of years, the entire Christian world spoke of saints' apparitions, especially the Virgin Mary. The most amazing part of seeing ghosts is that these apparitions have no explanation. At midnight on the 2nd of April 1968, two workers were walking on a suburban street in Zeitoun, Cairo. One of them was looking across to the church of Saint Mary and noticed a "strange figure, in white clothing, standing on the roof of the church. I thought she was going to kill herself and I shouted at her to pay attention. My friend called the police and I woke up the gatekeeper. He came out and started screaming <<It's the Virgin Mary>> and went inside to call the priest." By the time the...

In a major development, Archbishop Ramon Arguelles, D.D., the Roman Catholic Archbishop of Lipa, recently issued a new, official decree supporting the alleged apparitions of the Virgin Mary in Lipa, Batangas - paving the way for a positive declaration on the authenticity of the apparitions. If approved, the Lipa apparitions will be the first in the Philippines to be officially approved by the Church. Lipa may thus possibly join a short list of Church-approved apparitions of the Virgin Mary that includes Fatima, Lourdes, Akita, Amsterdam, and others. The possible first approved apparition of the Blessed Virgin Mary in the Philippines refers to the alleged apparitions of Our Lady to a Filipina...

A deathbed vision (DBV), is a term for the experiences dying people and their families encounter just before death. Frequently, dying people report visions of deceased loved ones, religious icons, angels, and colors or lights just moments, hours or days before the physical death occurs. Only about 10% of dying people are conscious shortly before their death, but of this population, it is estimated that between 50 and 60% of them experience visions which last an average of about five minutes, especially those suffering from terminal illness or life-threatening traumatic injury. In most cases, the apparitions are only seen by the dying, but in some cases caretakers and those attending the dying person...
