Most likely, in the first place, when talking about the supernatural, there are stories about brownies. What are they not doing! And at night they make noise, thereby frightening the owners, and make a mess, hide things …
Over the centuries of coexistence with such "guests", with these otherworldly forces, a kind of communication etiquette has developed. But the nature of brownies is not really known to anyone. Some claim that these are restless souls who, due to their sins, have closed the road to the afterlife, others believe that these are entities from the lower astral world, an evil force. And some are convinced that these are representatives of some kind of parallel civilization who are capable of becoming invisible.
For worse
It is believed that brownies often prophesy some kind of event, more of a misfortune. A young woman Elena from the village of Kharanor in Transbaikalia says:
“My troubles began in February 2004. In those days, we moved into a two-room comfortable apartment. One evening, when my husband Andrey was away, I, as usual, having put the children to bed, went to bed myself. Already falling asleep, I felt that someone was standing next to me. She asked through a dream: who is here? When did you hear the ominous "Huh?" - then numb. And then someone heavy piled on, starting to choke. I remembered his tightly compressed lips, hooked bird nose. She began to lose consciousness … And yet she jumped out of bed, barely overcoming her fear. Turned on the light - nobody. The neck hurt terribly. Going to the mirror, looked, and saw a long bright red scratch that a cat's paw could leave. But we don't have a cat.
One day my husband woke up in the middle of the night and saw a human figure next to the table. Recalling the instructions of the old people, he asked: "Is this for good or for bad?" The brownie answered in a deaf voice, as if coming out of the ground: "For worse!"
And then, on Youth Day, at mass festivities, where we went with the whole family, the tipsy guys stuck to my friend's husband. And Andrey stood up, as a result he received a knife wound in the chest.

Play - and give it back again
Brownies still like to hide, and then again "put" in place various objects. Raisa S. says: “I had a beautiful wallet trimmed with beads. I always carried it with me. Once I received a salary, at home before going to bed I began to sort through things in my purse and discovered that there was no purse with money! I looked, I looked, I didn't find it. During the day I asked around for all my colleagues at work, but no one saw my wallet. On that and calmed down.
True, I had one assumption: I secretly sinned against my son-in-law. With this thought, I went to bed. And before dawn I see a dream. It’s as if someone’s hand holds out a purse to me, and a man’s voice is heard: "Take it, take it, but don't think badly about others." From this voice I woke up, jumped up, rushed to my purse, opened it, and the purse was lying on top, and my entire salary is intact to a penny!"
Alyosha the healer
In some cases, brownies are kind to people: they even heal people's diseases! Tamara P. had a similar experience: “Once I realized that some invisible entity was living in my apartment. Before contacting me, it gives off a garlic smell. I will lie down for a minute or two and feel a heart beating on my hand. If I feel hot, then I feel pleasantly cool, and vice versa. Alyosha's concern (as I call my uninvited tenant) was more fully manifested during the period when I was conducting a medical and health-improving procedure to cleanse the liver - I drank a mixture consisting of vegetable oil and lemon juice. Once, after taking this medicine, I felt nauseous. Then Alyosha gently scratched my hand with his claws, lay down on his chest, and the nausea stopped.
Crushes and strangles
Negative brownies are very fond of choking or crushing people, sometimes with sexual intentions.
“It happened at noon,” says a girl named Liana. - At home I was alone and watched TV. Suddenly it began to turn off and on again - the electricity went out of business, and after a while it was completely cut out. And only in our apartment. Soon I was drawn to sleep, there was some kind of fatigue. I lie down on the sofa, look towards the door and see: a cat comes up to the headboard. As soon as she wanted to lower her hand and stroke, she disappeared. I look around - the cat is sleeping, curled up on the other side of the room. I think glitches …
She closed her eyes and fell asleep. But something bothered me in my sleep, I felt that something was interfering … I opened my eyes: to the left, leaning on me, was a translucent man. He put his left leg on top and hugs my chest with his left hand. Fear gripped me. I tried to scream - in vain, the voice disappeared. And not even lift a finger - the body does not obey. She closed her eyes and said: "Chur me!" The figure vanished."
Brownie survives
According to legends, when a brownie does not like someone, one should expect trouble. Tatiana from Chita was almost driven to suicide by the mystical "owner"!
“Falling asleep, I felt like someone was blowing lightly in my face. Deciding that it was a draft, she fell asleep calmly. The next night the breath was repeated, although, oddly enough, the window was closed. I was already asleep when the birds that live in the next room woke me up. They rushed about restlessly in the cage, uttering anxious screams. Turning on the night light, I went out into the corridor and heard someone's footsteps and vague muttering … Fear swept over me. I grabbed a knife in the kitchen, put it under the pillow, and after that everything became calm. And in the morning I found a children's spatula on the kitchen table, whose place is in the corridor. Neither I nor my little son put her there for five years …
As night approached, my soul became somehow painful. There was a feeling that there was someone unkind nearby. When I went to bed, an inexplicable fear gripped. Turning my eyes to the window, I suddenly realized that salvation was there. You just need to decide and step into the black opening. Only when she heard the little son twirling in a dream, she came to her senses.
What attracts brownies?
Probably, the reader has already noticed: all the storytellers are of the fair sex. So, maybe it’s a woman’s impressionability? Although in one of the stories the heroine's husband also observed a strange creature …
According to legends, brownies live in every dwelling. But why is it not given to everyone to see them? Why are some of them unaware of the presence of these "settlers", while others are constantly disturbed?
Parapsychologists believe that some people do attract brownies. In all likelihood, we are talking about those who have psychic abilities. In addition, there are "restless" houses, where the brownie is rowdy. These entities can pursue the inhabitants of the house, if there is a dysfunctional energy, or on the eve of some events, for example, the misfortune or death of one of the owners or their loved ones. In any case, if you have a brownie, you should listen to him: clean the energy of the apartment, in other words, sanctify it. It would be nice to go to church and pray. Because otherworldly forces will not knock on our lives without reason!
