No way! I used to watch that show all the time when I was like 12-13 or so. Can't say I specifically recall that episode off the top of my head, but it's a pretty safe bet that I caught it at some point back in the day. Very, very cool!

As for the topic...I've always wanted to believe, but I have a hard time with it. A few years back I had a very intense "supernatural" experience and from then on I believed for sure, but the more I think it over the more I pass it off as my mind just fucking with me.

Not much of a story to tell, really. The house I grew up in, my mother always told me about weird - but benevolent - things happening before I was born. I never noticed anything myself, until about 3 years ago. It was fairly early morning, sun hadn't really come up yet. I went upstairs, the hallway was pitch dark and there was this shape floating about halfway down the hall from me. It's hard to describe...it was just a few shades darker than the rest of the hall, and looked vaguely human; like a really distorted shadow.

It wasn't the shape itself that made such an impression though. As soon as I walked into the hall, I was absolutely frozen. I couldn't move for about 30 seconds or so, and I was filled with this intense feeling of dread and emptiness, and like I didn't belong there. Pretty impossible to describe what was going through me, but suffice to say I've never felt anything like it.

Nothing happened from there though. Disappeared, and I never had another experience like it. At the time it was hard NOT to believe that something supernatural had happened, but like I said - the more I look back on it, the more I doubt that it was anything more than a trick of the light and an under-digested breakfast. Who knows?
