Hearing Evil Voices and Physical Attacks from Doing EVP
Hey everyone,
just thought I'd share a little of my story, hopefully maybe, it'll help someone avoid the same fate
I have had an on/off interest in the paranormal for many years, but last winter I decided to "go active" for the first time, I started experimenting with EVP
I didn't capture anything on my first few attempts and was about to give up but for some reason I kept trying
after about 2 weeks of no results, I captured several EVPs on a single recording....they were intelligent responses to
this captured my curiosity (unfortunatley looking back now), so I kept recording...actually it got to the point were it was becoming an everyday thing, but I started to notice voices on practically every recording I did.
they were very faint at first and I had to listen to the recordings over and over a few times to make out much of what was being said (though I'd occasionally get louder ones with a precursor "popping sound"
as they days went by the faint voices started to come into focus so to speak where I could hear them much better
I became so good at this that I started to develope a dialogue with these spirits
I would get names, when and where they lived...etc....etc...
to my surprise, many of these spirits claimed to be the spirits of people that I had either known or knew of, eventually I came to believe I was speaking to the spirits of some friends and family members who has passed away
I fell for it all HOOK LINE AND SINKER
every thing seemed fine, pleasant, benevolent for about a month and a half, then I started to get some not so pleasant voices showing up in my recordings
threats, insults, profanity, etc...
it started off slight, but seemed to get worse by the day, until it got so bad that it practically came to dominate my recordings, but the "benevolent" voices were still there as well, so I kept at it
then one day, while I was at my work, near a running fan, all of a sudden, very loud and clear, I started to hear these same menacing voices harassing me from over the fan noise...I was hearing this, just with my ears now
I was freaked out to say the least, so I stopped doing EVP right then and there, but it was too late already, in the weeks that followed, I increasingly had more incidents of hearing these menacing voices, it was often, though not always over some type of background noise or carrier sound and they say (I believe the spirits use the steady source of sound to enhance a voice, same concept as using white noise when recording)
another thing started to happen....I started to feel physical sensations as I lay in bed at night trying to sleep, it was usually a weird vibrating sensation, or the feeling of a finger literally coming up out of the matress and poking me in the lower back....getting to sleep started to become a problem
things escalated like this for awhile, then literally over the course of a single morning early last April, things just exploded to an extreme level..the voices were everywhere....non-stop 24/7 day and night, they were much more intense now too, some had this weird bass tone effect, where when they spoke I could literally feel the ground shaking....the physical attacks also became much more intense...sometimes I would feel intense stinging or biting sensations
to put it mildly I became a complete vegatable for many weeks, it became hard to function at my job, anything...I called out of work allot and just lay in bed staring at the ceiling listening to this onlslaught of tormenting voices all day and night
and the voices would constantly play mind games, they would claim to be demons and Satan one day, pissed off human spirits another day, once one of them claimed to be Jesus...they kept switching the story line
they would constanlty harass me about my "sins" and literally try and psychologically break me down...it was a nightmare I find hard to put into words

This week I’ve been reflecting a lot on my situation. As I wrote about earlier, this week marked the two-year anniversary of when I started to capture my very first EVPs on recording back in 2015. It’s amazing to me to compare my thinking and outlook about all of this from then to now. This time two years ago, my mind was racing with excitement. I was overwhelmed by the fact that I was hearing so many voices on my recordings and that they seemed benevolent and very willing to talk with me. Little did I know at the time that within just two months, these voices and this talking would be used as a means of attack against me.
Back then, I thought that I was communicating with benevolent spirits. I tried to just make simple small talk. I would ask them things about themselves, like their names, where they were from, things of that nature. I admit that I quickly became mesmerized with fascination about all of this. With each passing day, I was hearing more voices on my recordings and as I strained the limits of my hearing by listening to each recording over and over again, I began to hear these voices more clearly. Things were moving very quickly. I got swept up in the situation and allowed myself to become blind to what was really going on. And what was really going on was that I was being deceived. I had opened the gate and let in the Trojan Horse.
By allowing myself to become essentially obsessed with communicating with these voices on a routine basis, by becoming swept up with the excitement and fascination without the good sense to pause, slow down and objectively reflect upon what was happening, I was setting myself up for a terrible fall. Things were moving fast, too fast and that’s how these entities that I was hearing on my EVP recordings wanted it. By the second month of recording, the kind and benevolent voices were starting to become not so kind and benevolent anymore. I began to hear things like threats, insults and profanity on my recordings. It started off slight as first, but grew worse by the day. They were getting things ready to spring their trap. The Trojan Horse was in position.
By the end of that second month, they sprung their surprise and they attacked. I had been communicating with them by hearing their voices on my EVP recordings and that’s exactly how they attacked me, with their voices. By the end of that second month, I was hearing these malevolent voices that I had been hearing recently on my recordings, but only now I was hearing them with just my ears without the need to record. In a very real way, they had come out of the recordings and proceeded to harass me with their voices to an extreme degree.
In the two years since this first started for me, I have found numerous other cases of this same situation befalling people. Now, I’m not about to take a huge leap of speculation and say that all EVP voices originate from this same malevolent element. I simply have no way of knowing that. I am personally inclined to believe that at least a large percentage of them are in fact, from this same trickster, deceiving, malicious element, who if they find a way, may wreak havoc upon one’s life to one degree or another.
After my own experience and after seeing many other accounts of this situation, I do know with certainty that this malevolent element does employ this Trojan Horse type deception quite often when they are setting someone up to harass and abuse. When I first started hearing their voices on my recordings, their voices and their overall manner was benign if not outright benevolent. So perhaps, in many cases it’s those most benevolent sounding voices that one may hear on an EVP recording that are the most deceiving and the most dangerous. Perhaps these kinder voices are looking for you to open the gate for them and their Trojan Horse.
Perhaps as a result of what happened to me and my own experience, I can’t help but to take a dimmer and more cautious view upon the matter, all I can say again is that they are out there…on the recordings…embedded in the noise….and they are looking for people to come along and unknowingly welcome them into their lives.
Jerseyguy77 discusses experiments with EVPs - sound recordings which are said to be possible communications with spirits or ghosts.
People who experiment with EVPs, Ouija boards, automatic writing , or mediumship sometmes report troubling paranormal phenomena, such as hearing threatening voices.
Attitudes towards such voices can vary from "These are the voices of demons!" - to the more insightful theory that our minds are composed of many subpersonalities, which hopefully, usually work together harmoniously. However, sometimes, especially if a person has unresolved emotional conflicts, some subpersonalities can become disruptive bullies.
We are all familiar with "talking to ourselves", as a fundamental aspect of thinking. Inner voices are also common in hypnagogia and in conversations with dream characters. Some writers value the assistance they receive from their fictional characters, who may spontaneously help to narrate the developing plot of the story. Also, helpful inner voices and guides may be encountered in meditative and mystical experiences. And shamans greatly value help from their spirit allies when they undertake visionary journeys.
Following are some useful resources regarding how to work with inner voices.
(1) YouTube - "The Voices In My Head" Eleanor Longden - TED Talks Eleanor gives a riveting account of her struggles with schizophrenia and hateful inner voices. She finally found hope and healing by working with empathetic psychotherapists, who helped her to communicate and negotiate with her inner voices, many of which became more cooperative and helpful.
(2) Book - "Young People Hearing Voices: What You Need To Know and What You Can Do" by Sandra Escher and Marius Romme (Amazon - Look inside)

these are certainly not my inner voices, I know that much
if someone has not experienced it though, it's hard to understand
but trust me, sometimes you just know what's coming from you and what's not
of course there are different reasons why people hear voices and these situations are not all the same
so I don't think it they should be all labelled together, but of course, sometimes we tend to do that
but there's more to heaven and earth ........ as the line goes
I've watched some YouTube videos about EVP recordings of spirit voices. It is spooky that sometimes a specific word or words can be head, but often it sounds more like static.
I think it would be easy to fake some of these recordings. However, I respect the claim by jerseyguy77 that he honestly recorded unexplained voices on his device.
Reputable scientists have documented examples of poltergeist movement of objects in homes. Also, Carl Jung, respected psychiatrist, went through a period of intense psychosis-like illness. During this time, he had intriguing encounters with subjectively perceived characters, some of which which he associated with archetypes of the unconscious. He came to believe that some of these characters were objectively real and independent beings, and he learned how to effectively interact with them. (See book - "Jung On Active Imagination.)
Regardless of the source of troubling paranormal voice or other sensory phenomena, I still think that the international community of people who hear inner voices has compiled many useful suggestions for coping with this phenomenon. I listed several sources for these coping strategies in my previous.
............
Anyway, I've been seeing and experiencing the most terrifying visions, voices, nightmares, and sensations - the physical sensations started with burning and stinging and quickly escalated to huge bites, stabs, jabs, punches, kicks, and all matter of attacks. There are voices that accompany the attacks that say things like, "Stop thinking." and then hit me, as if I'm being held down in some sort of spirit prison. There's even a spirit that is narrating everything I do and there's been this terrifying "judgment day meets hunger games" scenario that I can't even really fully describe.
I'm wondering what you did to get back to some semblance of a normal existence and what the person the OP mentioned in the original post said or did to help you parse these out. I'm sort of worried about the long-term psycho-spiritual consequences of these interactions but I can only move forward a day at a time.
any advice is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I guess some of what I'm experiencing has been so extreme that it of course made me freak out -
specifically, there are themes of certain vulnerable individuals "taking the fall" for the spiritual battles of others. this combined with some of the violent and demonic visualizations and forced "agreements" really scared me. I kept feeling like I was being blamed for something and that the "leader" was saying something to the effect of, "you're taking the fall no matter what, there's nothing you can do." imagine how shitty it would be if innocent, vulnerable random people who had nothing to do with whatever spiritual warfare is being waged above us ended up being saddled with eons of "demons" or negativity just because some higher up didn't want to do his own time. i also had a lot of physical sensations that became really scary because it seemed like something was being manipulated or taken from my body. I would be walking down the street, for instance, and it was like someone was pulling something out of me and then i could feel the entity running away. i was also developing my "clair" senses at this time, hearing, seeing, etc, and the things i started hearing and seeing and feeling in this world were terrifying. it was like everything i knew about this world was an illusion and the reality of this place is a hellish, hunger-games esque simulation for the entertainment of our overlords and i could hear myself screaming and felt myself being burnt like i was the latest "piggy" in lord of the flies.
i agree with you, though, that the story has changed so many times. first it wasn't christian at all, then it was judgment, then it was satanic sacrifice, then it was warfare, then it was moralistic, then it wasn't. i pray that it will resolve but of course there's this voice in the back of my head that wonders, "What will happen whenever I die? will I go to hell, and will it be fair that I am going to hell. is hell fair in the first place? what kind of spiritual damage have these demons done to me?"
PS I think it's interesting that other people on this thread mention doctors and or surgery, as that's how it started for me too. it was right after a procedure i got, i complained about the professionalism (or lack thereof) of the doctor, his staff, and the hospital staff and it was like i had been cursed by a million people.
The voices put me through a type of trial situation in the very beginning as well,
they would also threaten me but nothing ever came of their threats
it was a process, but eventually I got control of my anxiety and the voices weren't as intense.
I still hear them, but usually it's just a faint background noise now, I've gotten pretty good where I can block out the content of what they are saying
controlling my anxiety helped with the physical disturbances to, I still experience them, at night mostly, but just like the voices, it's weaker now that it was in the beginning
I don't believe anything that the voices tell me now, I've made it a personal policy, this has helped me a lot, when I was interested in what they were saying, they'd constantly play mind games and I'd end up down the rabbit hole again
no matter what I hear them say now, I just don't pay it any mind, I'm just not interested...this has helped me push them into the background
Pareidolia and apophenia is all I'm going to say for now. :D

Summerlander! You are still slacking off. We pay you for more depth of conversation. :mrgreen:
Are you working on your book for us?
Oh yeah! :mrgreen:
Summerlander never got around to psychoanalyzing one of my dreams either. Get back to work here, and forget about your book.
I'm busy. Lol :D
I'm writing a second book now. More like a long essay. Entitled, A Critique of Jehovah's Witnesses. I'll give it to them for free when they knock on my door again. :mrgreen:
Summerlander, you probably took this into account, but the issue with them is not what they believe as much as it is complete inability to interact with the reason that we normally assume is a given.
I cannot discuss their translation of the Bible with them because their organization is viewed as the divine authority. So strongly would either of us be viewed as an agent of evil that nothing we say remotely registers with them.
They will not read your treatise.
Jerseyguy77. Thank God you exist!!!!! Omg as I'm typing this I can hear my tormenting ass of a demon in my fan. Same story here to the "T". Evps. Conversing. Obbession. He pretended to be someone in my family. He's everywhere in every Soundwave. Fan, wind, waves at the beach, everywhere!!!!! Please email me jerseyguy77. [email protected] I need advice and maybe we can help each other. You are the first one that has my story. Please contact me. I'm amazed that I've found someone else with my story. Thank God!!!!!! We shouldn't have to live like this. On February 22 is when I started hearing them with my ears (sound waves). I'm astonished that I've found another with my story. Sarah
I'm sure a bird out side my window just chirped "She's a dreamer." And it's friend reply "Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Now I'm spooked :shock:
Animals talk all the time in their own language, so why are you bothered all the time by something a bird is telling you?
The experiences sound more like SP. If the user got some real physical injuries from the experiences, such as scratches and bites, this is a very rare occurrence known as the negative placebo affect. While the placebo effect is usually supposed to cause positive effects to the user, it is also completely capable of causing physical injuries or even negative effects to the user as well.
That is not what this is I can assure you.
This is an old thread of mine, but don't be surprised if down the road more people come along and write how they experienced something similar
EVP led to me developing a condition of hearing voices and experiencing physical sensations and disturbances at times
But, I've met others that got the same condition by other means of Spirit communication
It's a risk...i wish that I knew back then that this could happen ....but I didn't
Your EVP episodes are probably just nightmares you are having, just like anyone else who watches ghost movies. Try to learn to control your thoughts, maybe learn to meditate a little, and they won't bother you. I am phobic of turning into a ghost, but I am not getting nightmares over it. I learn how to control my thoughts and my lucid dreams so that never happens in, even if I might end up "dream spying" (http://allthetropes.wikia.com/wiki/Dream_Spying) in the process.
This was all that x 100...in the beginning....x 100...it's much calmer now though
Do I think it was spiritual in nature?...yes...it's my personal belief that it was...or something along those lines at least
But, really that's not as important to me now as simply stating that there is some type of powerful phenomenon going on for some people that when they engage in spirit communication type activity, it leads to a condition of hearing voices
What it all means and finding answers is not as important to me now...keeping focused on everyday things is more important to me
But yeah, something happened to my hearing in a powerful way from experimenting with EVP for a brief time
it is happening to others as well
Something happened to your hearing? Do you not think maybe it was just some water that blocked your hearing for a while?
Maybe we should experiment with this then, and see if it is really happening with everyone?
To be quite fair, I still cannot really figure out how exactly the WILDs I started having near the beginning of high school were able to help me overcome my extreme anxiety of others.
It' hard to describe with words even (but I try), but essentially the voices that I was hearing on my EVP recordings,"came out of the recordings" and I started hearing them constantly, 24/7...at an extreme...and I mean extreme....level for about 4 months and they were real malicious and manipulating at that point (where they all seemed benign or benevolent in the beginning when I first started recording), then it slowly started to fade in intensity, but it's not completely gone to this day....the voices are still there, now I just usually hear them when I'm alone, when it's quiet or when I'm stressed...but it's always the same voices, they always act the same way....it's a daily occurrence still, just at a weaker level and I can go about my life again, but in the first few months I was knocked on my ass by this situation
It's like doing EVP and attuning my ears to hear the voices on the recording opened up a perception....essentially clairaudience that I could not control
the voices are the main part, but not the only part, there's been a lot of physical/bodily disturbances, that seem all to intelligently guided.
some visual stuff like seeing forms and stuff out of the corner of my eyes here and there, but again, that's become less frequent over time
but it's essentially like there's something attached, but not to me physically all the time, attached to my life essentially, these attachments are always trying to get your attention all the time, continuously ...always chattering away, always trying to make you perceive them....over time though, it's like you naturally start to develop an immunity to this to a degree
I know this sounds real out there (I've heard it all believe me)..but so many other accounts have so many similarities , don't be surprised if more people show up at this old thread and say they've experienced something similar after EVP or some other form of spirit communication
I tell them now.....you are not alone in experiencing this
whether it's paranormal or not and debating that is not as important to me really as just stating that this is a possible risk if one really gets caught up with this type of activity...
What you are affected by reminds me of a Spongebob Squarepants episode called the musical doodle: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ds3S8mOsf8o https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K-I_IGoG730 Spongebob listens to a song called the musical doodle, and he cannot get the song out of his head. This ends up driving him insane in real life, because he cannot get that song out of his head.
I believe you about the body disturbances, because the placebo effect is more than real. I am sure there are many accounts like that with similarities, because Sleep Paralysis and hypnotic imagery are often described on here. As for if your nightmarish experiences are real like you say they were, the problem with that is, usually real life monsters tend to try to do more than just beat the @#@# out of you, especially if they are extremely animal like. Wild animals in real life will usually try to kill you, either over territory or for food, so I would count on more than just being beat up if it was an animal trying to attack you.
so on the basis that I believe that what I'm experiencing is paranormal, dimensional....something mysterious like that
but like , I said...that's my belief based on my own experience...I'm not out to convince anybody, but I don't hide my belief about it either
based on that, the origin of these voices I can't say with any degree of certainty, I can't tell you who they are, but I can tell you about them, what they are like..how they operate
they aren't animal like at all, ...I actually hear them refer to themselves as "higher life forms", but who knows
in the beginning, some of the physical disturbances were somewhat painful, but I don't think that's the point of them...they seemed centered around causing disturbance....mostly I feel them at night when I'm first trying to sleep, it's like weird vibrations, annoying tickling, things moving on me...it all seems centered around preventing me from sleep
the voices are all about disturbance to, they can be constant...sometimes, they're just repeating the same phrase over and over....it's to mentally wear you down....they also kind of speak in riddles to get you wondering about what they mean by particular phrases.
they are all about psychologically wearing a person down....but over time, their tactics become obvious, and since you can anticipate this, their words have less and less of an effect
so they can be malevolent to the extreme, but they're very clever in how they operate...I don't think that they ususally can physically harm us to a large degree, they resort to psychological abuse
The vibrations BTW, are part of the WILD technique, I wouldn't say they are caused by a demon. I feel them sometimes myself, and they feel so awesome.
So these characters are like the middle school bullies and teachers I faced in real life I am assuming? Where they get their great pleasure out of beating you up and saying the meanest things to you. While I can't really think of why a character would want to be a big bully like that to you, what you need to do if characters are attacking you like that, is learn how to fight back. That was my biggest mistake in middle school was not learning the martial arts back then, so I could protect myself. Learn how to stand up for yourself. Words cannot hurt you, they are just words. If you still don't feel confident, I would recommend taking a few classes in the martial arts. After you learn some ways to fight back, kick the rears of the characters who keep on bullying you. Believe me, whether you believe they are ghosts who are harassing you, or they are dream characters, if they know you know the martial arts and can smack their behind, they won't be coming back to bully you anytime soon.
"They" have entered my dreams before....not so much these days, but I've gone through times where they did this
Which makes me wonder...when we dream are we sometimes tapping into some kind of astral dimensions?....odds are they aren't all filled with friendly beings
These voices talk about astral worlds all the time to me ( when I actually listen....which I shouldn't)
I honestly think that they subtly try and influence humanity as a whole...by that I mean ...I think most people have contact with these entities at some point in their lives, it's just so subtle most don't pick up on this influence as being something external
I think these voices are all around us really, to one degree or another...what I did by getting obsessed by EVP like I did, was train my ears to actually hear them...now it's a matter of training my ears to unhear them
Ever have random thoughts where you think where the hell did that come from....I think that's how they subtly effect people...but you can do things like EVP to actually hear them and get their attention on you a lot ....once they know that you can hear them, you're like a light shining in the darkness to them...they are all about influencing and effecting people and if they know you can actually hear them and perceive them in ways most do not, they can effect you even more and this feeds their addiction/ agenda so to speak
When we dream, I think we are just dreaming. It all happens in our head. You mean like the "turning into a ghost" world, correct? It sounds spooky.
I have friendly characters that talk about the dream world in my lucid dreams, but it is just a lucid dream world. When I talk to my characters, I have more of a positive feeling from doing that, but maybe it's just me
Maybe you are talking to the wrong characters then? Maybe you are talking to the malevolent ones? Why not try to come into contact with some nicer ones? I talk to some really nice DCs frequently.
I'm new to this forum but very interested in Lucid dreaming, Astral travel, etc. This other realm fascinates me. I'm full blooded Native American and I practice lucid dreaming along with prayers and using sweet grass or sage. I have found in my experience, great insight into myself and others. I have had precognitive experiences where I just knew a path I was taking and where it would lead. Unfortunately, I have also experienced encounters with unsettling or evil presences. When I was younger, I tried to fight them off, or go head to head with them. Usually I would prevail but when I didn't, I just ended up with bad energy which I have since learned to burn sweet grass and ask for protection and guidance. My advice is, trust your inner instincts, if it feels wrong, stop, because it probably is not the right thing to pursue. If you find yourself in real trouble I suggest saying the "Our Father prayer" if you can that has pulled me through some scary situations with a shadow person.
Hi 👋. I have similar experience of hearing these voices, except that I didn’t get it from recording them. From my experience, they ARE demons, so called fallen angels from heaven/God!! They like to act like a nice angel and that’s why they say good things to you in the beginning, then started to get malevolent since you had fallen into their trap! They trap ppl through mediums like any fortune telling medium, paranormal experience (in reality they disguise themselves as ghosts). For the safe side, please do not ever go to those medium. To get rid of them, you will need to find a pastor to pray for you!! Usually, if you are Christian yourself, you can pray for yourself- pray for God’s repentance in touching those medium and for protection (for no more voice or physical attacks!!) I will pray for you as well. May you come to know God one day, through going to church ⛪ 👨👩👧👦 Here are some Bible Verses that I would like to share with you: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.” (John 3:16) “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11) “or God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” (2 Timothy 1:7) 😄 Please note that God is a faithful God who protects you; always be with you and will not abandon you!! May God bless you!! 😇🙏❤️
