Sherry has put together three supernatural fun
facts about her novel. In this post, you can learn more about the
intriguing, supernatural legends that makeup the eerie world of the Summerwind
Mansion.
Supernatural Fun Fact #1
Doppelgangers are believed to be a
ghostly double of a living person that haunts its living counterpart. Although
pop culture references to doppelgangers—a German word translating to
double-walker—are often used to describe people who resemble one another, the
word has a rich and often sinister history, which has more to do with ghost
stories. The fact that the apparition is presumed in most cultures to be a
specter from the grave, may well account for the macabre reaction bestowed upon
the doppelganger encounter.
In any case, a person is
presumably being stalked by his own ghost, which not only provokes some complex
questions about out-of-body experiences, but also conveys the conspicuous
implication that the subject’s own time is up. There have even been several
famous accounts of doppelgangers throughout history. Poet Percy Bysshe Shelley
saw his in a dream, and Abraham Lincoln saw his doppelganger as a second face
in the mirror. Both men saw them shortly before their deaths.
Have you ever seen your own doppelganger?
Supernatural Fun Fact #2
You hear footsteps upstairs when
you know no one is up there. Doors slam unaccountably. Lights flicker.
Unexplained shadows. The feeling of being watched…
These may be indications that your
house is haunted. Paranormal experts say that a haunted house is described as a
residence that is believed to be a place for paranormal activity. Haunted
houses are often regarded to contain the lost souls of deceased people who have
lived on the property.
A haunted house can also contain
poltergeists and malevolent entities, such as demons. Temperature fluctuations
in certain rooms may prove it was the scene of at least one nefarious plot. Ghosts
are considered the life force that remains after a person or an animal loses
its physical existence. The ability to perceive this disembodied soul is
considered by some to be a gift (or curse) of Second Sight or
other sixth sense.
So, do you believe a house can be haunted by ghosts or other things
that go bump in the night?
Supernatural Fun Fact #3
The 'art' of magic is an attempt
to alter events by an unnatural, inexplicable, and unscientific method. Black magic has been traditionally
referred to as the use of mystical powers for evil and/or selfish purposes. Black
magic refers to magical practices that can cause misfortune, sickness, or even
death to others. It is believed to be an ancient science that made use of
chants combined with the power of thought to bring about results. These chants are
very powerful. Just like positive thoughts can be used to bring good fortune,
negative thoughts can bring about misfortune, too.
Do you believe black
magic can harm its intended victim? Have you ever been a victim of it?
