My own personal experience is just that - an experience from 15 years ago. My uncle died without leaving a will. As the only living relative, my mother stood to inherit his 12-acre farm but it was so much in debt it was due to be sold for taxes and foreclosed upon his death. We saw and felt numerous things in his house and room where he died while we were cleaning out the property of his personal effects. As an experiment I let a tape run overnight (analog, not digital) in his bedroom. Upon examining it were heard only two phrases in my uncle's country accented voice - "barn" and about ten minutes later "back wall". We went directly there and after about 15 minutes searching found a bank book for an account no one even knew existed that he kept to himself hidden behind the wall in exactly the place we were told to look. We didn't get rich, but it was enough to pay off the back taxes and my mother is now living there (75 years old) enjoying her retirement. She has the tape today - it's one of her most precious possessions. This is what first started me in investigating the paranormal - I think many people have a personal experience they considered a turning point. I believe it was my uncle, because I see the proof of it every day of my life, the fact that my mother is still living there, when the property was within 10 days of being lost. Now doubters can say it was the wind, or matrixing, or something like that. Maybe it was - but on a farm that had a house with three floors, attic, basement, tool shed, barn, garage, chicken coop, animal shelter, storage buildings, and others to choose from - this wind or matrixing told us exactly which wall of which building to look at so that we found exactly what was needed within 15 minutes, I'd definetely call that paranormal.
