Experience description:

I had two experiences with the supernatural, one I call the 'demon' experience' and the second I call the 'angel' experience.  The two experiences happened about 5 years ago.  The first experience started when I was at a friends house.  One night I started to feel this 'energy' in his apartment.  I asked my friend if he felt it and he said that he did as well.  The strange energy would come and go, and this is a sensation I still get to this day.  The following day I woke up and again felt this weird feeling.  I began talking with it (something I believe now you should never do).  I asked what I believed was an 'entity' to move a small object on table.  To my surprise it moved almost immediately after I had asked.  Scared, I left the apartment and went to my parents house.  That night, I continued to feel the strange feeling although this time it got even stronger.  At one point it got so incredibly strong that I began to get terrified as it felt like I was being suffocated by this energy.  Then in front of me appeared what looked like a demon.  It was black and red in color, about 5-6 feet tall, had two arms, two legs, and a head.  If I were to describe what it looked like I would have to say it reminded me of the Balrog from Lord of the Rings.  It disappeared very quickly, but the energy continued to get closer and closer to me.  Right then, I heard in front of my face, a sound that reminded me of a bull exhaling right before it would charge at you.  At this point I yelled at it to 'GET OUT OF MY HOUSE!!'  After that the energy receded.  Then something really cool happened.  I saw a white orb appear in the corner of the room, it must have been the size of a volleyball, and then it slowly faded away.  I like to think that this was a guardian angel watching over me during this terrifying experience.

The second experience I had started when I was waiting to go to work one day at a hospital.  As I was sitting on a bench, I was thinking about God inside my head.  It was almost like I was having a conversation with God where I was asked a question and I nonverbally gave an answer.  The first question that came to me was 'what should you do in any given situation?'  To which I nonverbally replied 'you should do the will of God.'  Then another question came, 'what if you don't know what the will of God is?'  To which I replied, 'then you should do whatever you think will do the most good for the world.'  Right after I thought this and elderly African American man walked up to me, looked me straight in the eyes and said, 'Do you know how many thousands of people don't do that? They always see something wrong in doing what is right.'  Then he walked away and I never saw him again.  Somehow this man knew what I was thinking, which makes me think he must have been an Angel walking among us.
