Maybe you all know for sure what it is but I don't really know a lot about occultism and supernatural stuff, though I'm interested in it.

Somehow I've the feeling that something's haunting in my house.
Curtains open themselves without any reason, pencils and brushes suddenly fall to the ground, last night I was almost hit by a shaver etc.

Could you help me, please??? sad

Excluding things like breezes, it could be poltergeist activity. Keep in mind that poltergeist activity does not automatically imply a spirit is doing it. It could be coming from you.

There's usually no skill involved with people suffering from poltergeist activity (or recurrent spontaneous psychokinesis as it's known today). It comes on without warning and leaves just as suddenly. The person at the center of the activity is usually an adolescent female but it does happen to males. The subjects are usually under a lot of stress and the psychokinetic activity is a conversion mechanism to release that stress.

In your case it might just go away suddenly and never reappear, especially if you've been under a lot of stress lately and that stress is resolved.

I don't think that it's me because I realized that the poltergeist or whatever it is followed me to an other country where I spent some days together with my friends.
He shut the doors and as I was asleep he woke me up by scratching my pillow. The other night he did it to my friend who was terrified.
She also said that she saw a light flash as she looked for the reason of the scratching.

It can't be me, I think. o.o

if the activity followed you, and affected your friend, then I think it reinforces that it could be coming from you. You may be stressed by something, even if you don't know it (happens to me a lot) and a lot of people use their friends as releases mechanisms for stress, normally through talking. So theorectically, you could have caused the activity that effected her. (the light might just have been her freaking out or a coiencidence)

course this is just my logic result. i dont have a lot of experience in this field so im not too reliable.

It seems to me that the activity is still centered around you, which would add weight to the RSPK hypothesis. That the activity followed you to another country is pretty significant.

Thank you very much for your help! =D

So I don't need to freak out anymore xD
Well, I never expected something like that could happen to me because I never experienced it before.

Thank you! ^^
(Though I don't really feel stressed but as BSPBleach said sometimes one doesn't know it ^^)

If the issues continue, there are various wards you can put up to protect yourself from spirits. Religious symbols such as bibles and crosses can actually help, even though you don't have to be religious yourself. Of course, this is merely one way.

It is possible the activity could be based around you, but I wouldn't bet on it. If you can't calm it down by becoming aware and relaxing, it very well could be an outside source.

Yeah, I've heard of people being haunted before. The spirit will follow them around. If they move to another house. They come, too.

So, almost a year passed and now I know what it is ^^
It really is a ghost. He's still around me, he told me his story and now I'm not worried anymore. I got used to his presence and don't freak out anymore when he's moving things, whispering sth, etc. sweatdrop
I realized that it wasn't his intention to scare me. He always stopped immediately when I got frightened.

Thank you guys for your help =D
Just wanted to inform you that I'm now doing okay biggrin
