Rockfall, or stone throwing, is relatively rare kind of poltergeist. Sometimes it’s just raining stones falling from nowhere (like other abnormal rains, for example, from fish, coins, mice, etc.). More often, however, mysterious. rockfall shows some signs of rationality: stones can fly not only from above, but also from the side, penetrate through walls, speed up or slow down your movement, do not hit people, disappear, appear … The maidservant is to blame for everything A characteristic case of stone throwing poltergeist took place in April 1959 in the city of São Paulo, Brazil, in the house where she lived De Ulhoa family. On Sunday afternoon, the head of the family is Don Cid, read, as usual, a newspaper. Suddenly three of him come running from the hallway children and shout that someone throws stones at them. And really, from the sound of blows came from the hallway. Don Cid, his wife and maid decided that someone was throwing stones at the windows and the open door. But those were closed. Meanwhile, stones were lying on the floor in the hallway. Don Cid I thought it was the tricks of the children, when suddenly the blows of stones rang out behind him. Stones thrown by unknown where and from, ricocheted off the walls and rolled across the floor … After a while the mysterious rockfall intensified. Despite the tightly closed windows and doors, stones flew into all the premises of the hacienda. De Ulloa called neighbors called the police. The rockfall in their house was watched by many eyewitnesses. People could not determine where the stones were falling from. Himself the moment of their appearance eluded the attention of observers. Stones flew both from above and from the side, and at the same time did not fall into people. IN the following days the stone throwing poltergeist continued then amplifying, then calming down. Witnesses agreed that the stones fly into the house from somewhere outside, freely passing through the walls and the ceilings. After the rockfall began, the movement of objects began. Priest Father Matos saw an egg lying on a table soar and hit the wall, while remaining intact. He picked it up from the floor and put it in the refrigerator. After some time, the egg hit again the wall. Matos’s father looked into the refrigerator. There were no eggs in it. It seems that it hit it on the wall. To verify this, the priest put a mark on the shell and put it back in refrigerator. From that moment, the refrigerator was closed all the time and was under surveillance. Some egg hit the wall again and again miraculously did not crash. It was an egg coated mark. There was no egg in the refrigerator … The priest tried to expel unclean power through prayers and holy water but nothing happened. The poltergeist at De Ulhoa’s house ended by itself through month. Subsequently, recalling the events of those days, the inhabitants of the house came to the conclusion that the young maid was to blame for “spoiling” Francesca. She was the only one who kept under a hail of stones calm, and when she was asked about the reasons for this her behavior, she stated that the stones would not harm her. But the main thing “evidence” – stone throwing ended when she was fired and removed from at home. Pebbles flew from the jungle 30 years before father’s experience Matos the same tagging trick was done by an American Naturalist Ivan Sanderson. He ran into a stone thrower poltergeist in 1929 on the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. Sanderson stayed there with one of his friends, whose house was in remote countryside. On the third week of your stay in visiting American began to find pebbles and small stones that were not here the day before. It turned out that they were here at night someone tossed. For the owner of the house, this was also a surprise. They With Sanderson watched all night from the windows and really, in the morning heard the knock of throwing stones. They flew from the jungle, who were 80 meters from the house. The jungle was thorough searched, but no traces of night throwers were found. Meanwhile, the stones continued to fly. Accuracy mysterious throws hit. They managed to throw stones at dusk with distances of 80 meters on the same small patch of the verandas. Sanderson couldn’t understand anything at first, but when the same stones and pebbles began to appear on the veranda itself and in the adjacent a room whose doors and windows were closed, he suspected the presence of poltergeist. Deciding to be convinced of this, he acted like a father Matos: tagged a few pebbles and threw them back into the jungle. On the the next morning he found them on the floor of a tightly closed room. In that the same day, late at night, he went to the edge with these stones jungle and threw them away into the thick of trees, where in the darkness they it was hard to find. Returning to the house, he found these pebbles there. His they said that they arrived here when he was walking from the forest to the house. The fallen stones by the morning disappeared Stone-throwing poltergeist, in which flying stones freely pass through walls and ceilings, in the specialized literature it is sometimes called the “Grottendik rockfall”. That was the name of the Dutch engineer who came across a similar poltergeist in 1903 and described it in detail. It happened on the same island of Sumatra. Having spent the night in one of the rural houses, Grottendik woke up in the middle of the night from strange noises next to him. He lit a kerosene lamp and found that from different places of the ceiling made of large layers laid in several layers dried leaves, rounded pebbles smaller than an inch in size fall. Grottendik woke his Malay servants and homeowners. The hosts swore that there were no holes in the ceiling, and explained what was happening with machinations the devil. Almost immediately they left the house. Engineer sent Malays explore the surroundings, and at the same time the roof. Nothing suspicious they not found. There was not a single gap on the roof through which they could would penetrate the stones. Those meanwhile continued to fall. Grottendik noticed that their fall was unusually slow and they neither never hit people. He tried to catch some of them. The pebbles inexplicably changed direction and slipped past the hands. Soon, the entire floor of the house was littered with them. Fallen to the touch the pebbles were warm. Their methodical fall, nothing could stop, even shooting at the ceiling. In the end, the Malays left. Grottendik spent the rest of the night in the house alone. Waking up in the morning he found that the fall of stones stopped and almost all the stones disappeared somewhere. There were no more than a dozen left on the floor. Moreover all this time no one could enter the house, because all the doors Grottendik locked inside. In the morning, he again, more carefully, examined the house and the roof and made sure that there were no holes anywhere. Detailed the engineer sent a report on this case to the London Society the study of mental phenomena. Meaningless business K several dozen cases are known to date stone poltergeist. Each of them is investigated and confirmed by at least five eyewitnesses. Perhaps the most a famous incident occurred in France in 1923, when a whole the police detachment watched the stones for almost four months arising from the air, fired at a rural house by the river Ardeche. The rockfall in the American city of Harrisonville in 1901 year. Then, quite weighty, suddenly flew into the city from the forest stones, pretty scaring residents. The distance to the forest was considerable, and the stones are too heavy to be thrown by hand. The attack on the forest, undertaken by armed citizens, gave discouraging result: not only not found in the forest stone-throwing tools, but also no trace of intruders. Newspapers later wondered: who needed to deal so meaningless thing, because the stones in the long run are not only not touched not a single person, but did not even damage a single house. Buried alive Stone throwing is just one of the tricks many-sided poltergeist. Now among specialists prevails version that poltergeist is caused by the human subconscious. IN in most cases, its appearance is unknowingly provoked by children and adolescents under puberty. Invisible actions often resemble the actions of offended children. With others they begin do what these children would do. Moreover, apparently deprived any control by the adolescents who called them, invisibles often bring down their fury first of all on these very teenagers. English traveler S. Davis reported on stone poltergeist that occurred in the 1920s in Africa. A “witching rain” of stones fell on one village. how it turned out his goal was a boy playing in the yard, since he did not touch anyone else. The stones fell so fast that boy did not have time to escape. They completely covered him and even formed over him a small mound. Only then did the rockfall stop. From the knoll came the screams of the child. Having disassembled the hill, parents and villagers with surprised to find that the boy was not injured: the stones were built around him was something like a chamber, into which air passed. Rockfall then repeated, again pouring around the unfortunate such the same pyramid with a camera inside. Calm the other worlds stone throwers succeeded the local sorcerer. Poltergeists “children” and “adults” However, not all poltergeists are called by children. ABOUT the age of the poltergeist carrier can be judged by the nature of the course this last one. For example, stone poltergeist refers to the category of “primitive”, “rude”. These include all kinds of abnormal rains. In addition to the loss of some objects with such poltergeists nothing else usually happens. This allows suggest that the “gross” poltergeists are caused by the subconscious adults. By the way, in the famous stone throwing poltergeists on Sumatra, in France 1923 and most others about the presence children and adolescents not mentioned. “We have a completely different picture We observe in typically “children’s” poltergeists. “Baby” poltergeists in their quest to intimidate others, they often act incredibly sophisticated, with great imagination, with fiction. They don’t use only the movement and flights of objects, but also the appearance of threatening notes, drawings, dead fish, knocking, footsteps, hoarse voices, jumping brooms, flying blankets, etc., etc. such poltergeists largely depends on the worldview of the child – its carrier. In atheist children, it is absurd and brutal game Poltergeists – one of the hidden possibilities of man, along with telepathy, clairvoyance, telekinesis, exit from the body. Now these opportunities are manifested in people spontaneously. People most of them cannot control them. But someday they will learn. Before, of course, they must change in moral plan, otherwise mastery of superpowers will bring humanity instead of universal happiness, universal destruction.
