When I'm awake at late-night, I sometimes hear children laughing in the corridors of my apartment.
It sounds similar to how it does in the day, which means that it's neither quiet enough for me to not hear, nor loud enough to disturb me.
Usually, it's only for a minute or two, and I can ignore it if I want to, since it doesn't scare me that much.
It doesn't scare you that much???
I had a very realistic visual hallucination once (hypnopompic). I was coming out of a nap while I had a fever. I looked over, and beside the bed was a young woman staring at me intently. She leaned over to bite/eat me, but calmly and without any emotion. As soon as she got within touching distance of me, she started to vanish, from the centre-out, and within a couple seconds was totally gone.
I was really struck by how real she seemed. She looked exactly like a real person.
But I just knew she wasn't real (the same way that you just know things in dreams). Because of that, I didn't find it scary at all. I remember being a little curious what kind of sensations I would "feel" when she actually made contact with me, and was a mixture of disappointed/relieved when she vanished at that point. But strangely(?) not scared.
I had something similar, also when I had a fever. A little boy with clothes as if he was from the 20s was standing near my bed and looking at me. Really strange. I was not scared either.
Lol I mean I guess of all the possible ghostly sounds one could hear, a child's laughter is pretty good!
I've heard it enough to know that it's harmless, paranormal or not.
