Ghosts (I know several people who can see them at times), spiritualist (for a lack of better words, I met a lady who could pinpoint my reading of what I wanted to consult on -- I'm a skeptic and she blew me away), living ghost spirits (lack of a better translation -- people can haunt you similar as a ghost but slightly different), shamanistic spirits (sometimes, you just don't know what it was!)
None of the above is 100% or even I can say I saw except for the psychic lady the rest are just experiences that are just too strange to write off as a figment of my imagination.

The Japanese call them YOKAI. They are similar to demons but yet unlike Christianity's demons.
I used to visit a shrine dedicated to the seven tailed fox even at night. Most Japanese are scared of them but when ever I went there I felt totally at peace. The 7 tailed foxes are normally nasty things that jinx you.
I also used to go to cementaries with GFs/SOs during the prayer season and no matter how agitated I was before going I'd always leave rather happy.
Ever consider that an apartment or house could be an entity? I do. One particular apartment seemed to make me feel like a millionaire but while I was living there for some reason I had huge expenses, I moved to a similar prices place and actually saved money.
I had one particular car that was rear ended, front ended, hit on the side and after getting it "blessed" never had an issue again.
While living in the U.S. I've only came across similar experiences I had in Japan near Indian reservations. However, a gallow in at historic site scared the fuck out of me, just creepy and dark feelings.
I should have stayed away! One thing I learned in Japan, don't take "power spots" lightly as in "hey! Cool! Let's go play ghost hunters in haunted houses." Believing or thinking that "ah! No worries I'm Christian" doesn't protect you.

I believe events can leave an impression on places. Ghosts on the other hand not so much.
I've seen a lot of weird stuff in the sky, so yeah I think there are ufo's and aliens out there.
Illuminati?
Why not?
Atlantis?
What if we came from Mars? Atlantis was the Capitol of Mars but the planet was going dead so we had to move. I honestly think we're wasting our time going to Mars and we should be looking at other planets instead.
I'm not saying Alantis was on Mars but I'm not going to deny that it may have existed. I just think that Mars once contained life and it moved here.
Cryptids
I once read a story about how the US government has a task force for protecting the last colony of Bigfoot, and that they're highly intelligent creatures. It was a believable story, kind of wish I saved it. He's one that I hope exists.
I really don't understand why anyone would be trying to cover up an extinct race of giants. I watched a documentary about it they were mostly trying to find evidence that giants existed and talking about it being a cover up.
This extinct race of giants is a recent discovery for me, and not something I can get into without there being any actual reason to cover it up. We have 8 foot tall basketball players.
There could be all kinds of creatures living out there, my thoughts on Mars are probably my most extreme but not something I'm going to lose sleep over.
Yeah it's interesting to me that of the paranormal and spooky things.. people have a lot of variety in their beliefs. What seems unlikely to me is more believable to you and vice versa.
so life on mars... coming here, do you believe in ancient aliens? I had a lot of skepticism for claims that humans couldn't have built pyramids without help... but I know of many ways simple engineering techniques could have done it. Counterweights, pullys, digging, levers & sliding a board under a big heavy object

If there was life on Mars and it moved to Earth ancient aliens would have to come along with that.
Why the tech didn't hold up, who knows. Maybe they got here and didn't have the means to produce more tech and what they brought only lasted so long. With a large enough workforce there's no reason why man couldn't of built the pyramids.

The bigfoot story I read had to do with an army medic being called in.
He showed up to what looked like a heavily protected military base.
He was briefed about everything he was going to see was top secret.
They spent hours driving in the woods, met with a group of bigfoot.
Then drove a couple more hours and had to hike to help an injured bigfoot.
I've never been able to find the story again after I read it.

"What if we came from Mars?"
My theory. We did! Assumtions: 1) mars obviously was habitual at one time. 2) there is an asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter that has the density to make up a planet:
Mars and this planet (actually named Vulcan in science circles) went to war 100,000 years ago, this planet DID not make it, mars has its atmosphere ripped away through NUKEs, ion cannons, whatever.... Advance weaponry
Mars survivors go to earth. On earth, suddenly "Co-magnum" man shows up out of the blue on the timeline, kills off neanderthal.
mars survivors bring just enough tech in the ships, but cannot bring factories, so tech gets lost within a few generations (see the Hindi texts about this, accounts for strange machines and tech that bubbles up over time and accounts for a lot of our stange oral histories about space travel)
Man reverts to stone age as limited tech dies out, starts the climb up.
Man climbs quickly out of the stone age with genetic knolesdge of past technology (comparatively)
Accounts for the myriad of pictures on mars that seems to show ruins and destroyed tech laying about.

I don't actually believe in anything strange. However, I think there are many many things that require better explanations. For example, people do claim to see UFOs everyday, I never have but many people claim to see these things, so what are they seeing? There are gold mines that are 50k years old, according to archeologists, man didn't start mining gold until 3-4, thousand years ago. So who was mining gold 50k years ago? There are stones in the western wall that are so heavy they could not be moved today, how did the people that built it move those stones? There seems to be many things about mans history that just don't seem to make much sense.

Well, I don't know about ancient gold mines, but for ancient construction I will say this. Ancient people still had good mathematics and engineers. If you were to use a pully and connect a large thing you wanted to lift to a very heavy counterweight, and then dig out underneath the counterweight, guess what? Now the object you're lifting becomes essentially weightless if the weights match, or if the counterweight is heavy, you can lift it easily. Then you can slide boards under the lifted object to create scaffolding. Rinse and repeat.
I just searched for an old video I remember seeing. Quality isn't good. Guy recreates stonehenge using ancient building techniques. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oK1Rzch89Dw

To be honest, nothing. I believe some things aren't understood yet but nothing paranormal like ghosts or bigfoot, etc.
