Obviously not an actual paranormal experience, but the power went out once when we were watching the Blair Witch Project as a teenager with a bunch of friends, and while you rationally know that thereโs nothing supernatural about this, and itโs just a power outage with poor timing, your brain cannot stop itself from freaking out about it when youโre in the middle of it!
Thankfully everyone involved survived the night. ๐
When we watched The Ring with my sons, near the end of the movie, I slipped my cell phone out of my pocket and dialed the land line so it started ringing just when the movie ended.
Screams all around. Great fun.
Oh my, you are a great dad! ๐
I hope you held a flashlight under your chin and whispered about how freaked out you were
And had a runny nose!
