Halloween has always been a time of fascination with the dead, from ghostly sex stories to haunted tube lines. The human race has always been intrigued by spooky spirits, and for good reason. Chloe Smith, a psychic medium from Ashbourne, Derbyshire, knows this all too well. She explains that she is constantly visited by spirits, but things become more intense around Halloween. The heightened energy during this time of year seems to bring the ghosts out in full force.
Chloe has a unique ability to feel the presence of past loved ones and even pets. She says they make themselves known through the eerie noises of the night. Being a medium, spirits naturally surround Chloe, as she is more open to listening to them. However, she admits that the number of spirits around her increases during Halloween. It's as if they are drawn to her energy and want to communicate with her during this time.
It's no surprise that people love a good scare. There's something exhilarating about the thought of coming face to face with a ghost. But why do we enjoy fear so much? According to Dr. Dean Mobbs, a neuroscientist and expert in fear, our brain processes fear in the same way it processes excitement. This is because our body responds to fear by producing opioids to prepare for potential pain. It's a strange phenomenon, but it explains why we can find enjoyment in being scared.
Niloufar Esmaeilpour, a clinical counselor and founder of Lotus Therapy and Counseling Centre, also sheds light on the enjoyment of fear. She explains that our brain's prefrontal cortex is responsible for regulating fear, allowing us to enjoy the experience rather than being consumed by it. This releases dopamine, the hormone responsible for pleasure and motivation, which keeps us coming back for more.
Chloe has had numerous encounters with ghosts, including being followed by them and even waking up to spirits at the foot of her bed. She believes they come forward to prove the existence of an afterlife, but she has no fear. She simply turns over and goes back to sleep or ignores them. In fact, she says that spirits can be playful, as she experienced one Halloween when she found the Lego in her children's room had been rebuilt into a house.
While some may become anxious as the presence of the dead becomes stronger, Chloe reassures us that there is no need to be scared. She reminds us that spirits cannot harm us and are simply trying to communicate with us. It's their way of letting us know they are okay and still with us in some way.
Chloe's experiences are just one example of the countless stories out there involving the paranormal. Do you have a story to share? We'd love to hear it. You can email us at [insert email address]. Halloween may be a time for spooky tales, but it's also a time to reflect on the idea of life after death and the possibility of communication with the other side.
