Well seeing the thread is revived I'll share. First of all let me start by saying that I am a sceptic and do not believe in anything without scientific evidence hence why I don't believe in ghosts, god or the tooth fairy. This was an experience that I can't explain and to this day I don't know if it is co-incidence or something bigger.
I was asleep in my bed when I was about 18. It was a few days after the new year. I woke up in the middle of the night and my cousin was in my room. We had a chat about life and then he said that he had to go and that I should look after myself and that it was nice to see me tonight. Next thing I knew I woke up, the entire conversation must have been a dream but it felt incredibly weird, after all my cousin moved interstate a few months before and was not in town. I told my mum and dad about the dream in the morning and mum said she had the exact same dream. As soon as she said that I felt chills run down my spine, so did she. It was as if we knew what was happening. Later that day we got a phone call. It was from my aunt. My cousin had been killed in a car accident that night.
there was no way we could have known about that accident overnight, even subconsciously. He came to both of us around the time he had died in our sleep and said goodbye to us. We shared the story together before we knew about the accident. All these things added up to something 'supernatural' something I cannot explain. I don't know what it was and I probably never will know but it was an experience I will never forget. it was not scary or anything, if anything it was calming and made the process of losing him somewhat easier.
Have I since believed in ghosts? No.
