Snapping Sounds and The Hat Man

Witness: Noelia S.
Location: Bryan, Texas
Date of Encounter: December 19, 2017

So last night I went to sleep at about 12AM. I was so tired, and my whole body was exhausted. It seemed like any normal night. I had been sleeping for 5 hours when I started hearing what sounded like snapping fingers above my ear, but it sounded kind of loud. As the seconds passed, the sound became like distant, but still above my ear. I wouldn’t dare open my eyes, I was too scared to see The Hat Man (I had an encounter with him when I was 6 or 7, and since then I’ve been scared to one day wake up and see him staring down at me). The snapping sound didn’t stop until I opened my eyes. My heart was racing, and I felt so cold even though it was hot in the room. I immediately looked to both sides of my bed and sat up to see if my sister was sleeping in her bed. She was, so I felt even more scared. I grabbed my phone and checked the time. It was 5:45AM–almost one hour before my alarm would ring. I went back to sleep and didn’t wake up until my alarm rang. Four hours have passed and I can’t forget the sound. If someone knows what this means, or if you’ve had this happen to you too, please let me know! Sincerely, a scared 14-year-old.

  1. I believe you. SUpernatural events h appen all the time, everywhere. It’s only rarely that ghosts have malicious intents to the living. It does happen, but usually where there has been a really negative, malicious history. Like an old prison, mental asylum, the Tower of London, etc. Any site where people or animals have been very abused and murdered there can be haunted by malignant or revengeful spirits.
    Even then, outside of scaring people to death, which is possible, ghosts usually have little physical capacity to bodily harm people.
    In very rare instances that can happen. But, usually, the effects of a strong, malicious spirit are psychological and spiritual. Again, there have been instances of frail people dying of sudden heart attacks from sheer terror of what they are encountering, but those situations are rare,
    Even in a guided tour, though, with skilled mediums, I wouldn’t venture into old prisons or the site where awful murders have transpired. A malicious spirit can like your energy and follow you home. Ghosts know no boundaries or restrictions. Good luck!

    You have to read the circle of light protection prayer. I am in no ways religious, however, I was having experiences and I read the prayer every night to myself until it ended. Truly, my experiences scared me so much I feel like I am already saying too much. But I recommend trying the prayer. It helped for me. Good luck.
