Thanks for the reply. I am curious-- hopefully you know the answer. I have been recording a few times for the last couple of nights in my home. I can't believe something I heard on my recorder just half hour ago. It actually brought me to tears. My husband and I were in the living room and I told him to turn off the tv so I could ask if there were spirits around. I asked a few questions and just after my 3rd question my husband coughed a couple of times during the recording and you can hear him put his cup down and the ice settle to the bottom. Just after he coughed, a roar and 2 knocks (or what sounded like footsteps on a hardwood floor -- we don't even have a hardwood floor) and whispering near me happened. I didn't here ANY of this live-- it was all in my recorder. I am scared to live here now. Do you have any idea what any of these things mean? I wish I could attach audio on here. These spirits can't hurt me, right?
You can attach things audio on here I use soundcloud but it requires you to register an account though it's free. Some people said that they have trouble with certain file formats uploading to the site so with soundcloud you don't have to worry about file format.
Anyways this could still be a human or Jinn, or other things we don't know of that is not necessarily demonic. However it is concerning that you are concerned by the audio. Do you have any history of the house you haven't mentioned, specifically with you saying the wood floor part is interesting in the theories of "imprints" or echoes of energy. It is possible to get residual energy on EVP.
Just be careful with the EVP and don't go overboard it's important you don't get too immersed or obsessed with EVP. Just be sure to be vigilant of yourself and maintaining healthy habits and a healthy mind, body, spirit. EVP can be dangerous, and it is very similar to a ouija or spirit board. I personally think it is quite a bit safer but it's subjective to the person and location. Certain locations can be dangerous, but EVP is not inherently dangerous in itself.
Just think if there are people that aren't that great hanging out in "bad" (bad can be a lot of things) locations but can't see them, it can be similar to that. Can be very disturbing and it's a rabbit hole you can't crawl out of. Once you realize intelligent beings are living in the same space as you but you can't see them it's a huge mental obstacle for some to comet to gripe with. Not all locations are like that, and even if it is intelligent it doesn't mean it's evil.
Anyways has there been physical contact? Changes in behavior or mood? Do people experience rage fits? New hobbies, interests, obsessions, worries, troubles, nightmares, that you or your loved ones have experienced? How long have you lived there? Do you have children? What is your spiritual beliefs like, are you Christian, agnostic, atheist or something else? These questions are just to help better understand your situation and how to try and help you.
There will be a lot of information we can provide in many different perspectives. Everyone has their own methods or muses/inspirations, spirit guides, and destinies
The most important thing is having a clean way of living and home, and to have confidence and love for yourself and your loved ones. Those are all essential. You must be confident you have the power of yourself and knowledge and awareness of yourself. Your true self who you have been experiencing for your whole life, some entities not necessarily yours has the power to effect the human mind in ways that we can't consciously perceive other than in the changes in ourselves. If that makes any sense to you.
