This would be quite an experience to have. I'm probably on the older side of those posting on ATS and I've yet to have any type of "real deal" paranormal experience. I'm not doubting this story at all because I wasn't there but I want to say that I know that weird things can happen on medication because this happened to my husband. He was always tired on his blood pressure pills and the doctor changed one of them. During the day he was feeling better and after about two weeks he started experiencing very real night terrors. He would wake up and feel what he only could describe as something evil and the feeling something terrible was going to happen. He would stand in the hallway because he really felt something was really wrong in the house. This was totally out of character for him and we didn't make the connection for awhile until we started looking up more about this pill online and there were other people talking about having this reaction, some even to the point of going to the hospital. After he got off this pill this never happened again. I'm pretty convinced there are some real experiences out there but I also think so many people are on medication anymore and there could be quite a few "drug induced" paranormal experiences also.

First off OP my post wasn't to take a jab at you or be mean. It's my opinion that this event didn't happen is all.
To those who are crying over the fact that some of are discrediting his story: This is a website to which everyone is entitled to their opinion and are here to debate such opinions. I or anyone else have the right to call BS if we feel the need. If I posted a thread about me being abducted by aliens, having an anal probe inserted, and given superpowers.....do you think everyone would believe me? NO.....and I wouldn't expect them to. I would hope that they would use their best analytical thinking skills and come up with a reason why they disagree.
Are we feeble or closed minded because we don't think this happened? NO....we are logical thinkers, who aren't gullible, and can sense BS when we see it.
I believe in the paranormal (in pretty much all areas), I just don't believe this story.

If something ever were to happen, even remotely close to what you say you experienced, then I will hurry back to eat my words!!

You know there is a short stories forum here on ATS, right?
I'm here to share what happened,
Well when you post a story like this It helps a lot to have some evidence -- not just taking ones word for it.
I find it less than credible as it stands.

And usually any form of black mist or matter is of a "demon" presence... have you been playing with games you shouldnt have been seen as you didnt believe? maybe not then but with in a few weeks before hand maybe?

unless you experience it you cannot say it's less than credible.
Of course I can say that.
It simply is not believable to me.

Oh, you find it less than credible do you! Well why don't you write a Short Story about it.
There's a forum for that I hear.
Annnd to the OP, great little story. Sounds like you've had quite the experience.
I do not think this question has been asked yet but:
Did you feel any physical effect from the smoke in the room? From a cough, to perhaps you getting the sensation that you could inhale it?
Sounds like you got a second-hand smoked by a ghost to me.
The fact that the entity in question provided you with happiness or peace also seems to contradict the smoke.
Considering that I am sure you may have been on edge (to say the least) when the ethereal smoke entered your room.
Either way, interesting. I've heard of many stories regarding smoke in rooms, and share your experience of being "touched" or "tapped" by something that clearly was not in the room (not that I could perceive, of course)edit on 27-4-2012 by ThinkingCap because: (no reason given)

I thought I would bring one of my experiences to bolster the "belief" that there are spirits around us all the time. Our eyes see color only and yet we think we know there can be nothing outside the visual or even auditory range of our minds eye. All of us dream, and mistake ordinary stuff for paranormal. The thing about paranormal is that when that happens it is enough of an experience that one must accept it as real, then get all excited about it, tell everybody we know, and then be disbelieved or even mocked because we see "spooks" or whatever. Thats the bummer of course, that as soon as the experience ends there is nothing left to prove it ever happened (except to us). If a door or window opens on its own that can be explained as wind; if a shimmering in the air moves across the room, that can be explained as tired eyes or meds or something; if you hear your name called or feel a presence that can be thought to be TV or a friend in the next room or whatever. If you hear and see all three back to back then it gets your attention. If you hear later that others that you don't even know experience the same sorts of things there...
I was going to relate one of my own here ( I have a few) but this is not my thread and others are so quick to deny reality outside their own senses that lately I am like why bother? Its a lot of effort and some are so quick to call people liars, scoff or call hoax. So you don't deserve to hear it. These remain MY subjective experiences, not yours.
Your loss...
