A Persistent Bike Helmet Ghost

Full transcript of the My True Ghost Stories episode “A Persistent Bike Helmet Ghost.” Listen to this episode.

A persistent ghost tries many methods to get in touch with me. Welcome to episode 73 of my true ghost stories. Now a lot of ghosts contact me in dreams. As I've said before, ghosts are not allowed in my house, but I am okay with them contacting me in dreams. The dreams in which ghosts contact me are what I would call visitation dreams, except that they're not usually a visit from a person that I know that has passed.

It's from a stranger. And the difference between a visitation dream and a regular dream is that a visitation dream is just sort of like looking in on a scene of something going on and it's very plain and it just has a different quality than a regular dream. Now these ghosts that come to me in these visitation dreams are always and the scene that I see them in that I described, scenes of them doing something, scenes of them fixing something, scenes of them cooking, walking. It's always just an action that they take that I observe in this visitation dream. And sometimes they will do this activity in front of me and then they will close in and they will get closer and closer and closer to me and then show me their teeth.

And that's really scary when they do that. That tends to wake me up because the bearing of the teeth, I'm not sure what that represents. But it represents something that's not them like trying to scare me with their teeth. And they are always strangers. I thought this was normal but one time I asked a friend, do you see strangers in your dreams because I had been experiencing it a lot?

I asked her, do you see strangers in your dreams? And my friend reacted, no, that would freak me out. And so I asked a few other people and most people did not experience strangers in their dreams. So I really put it together that these are spirits trying to get my attention. So none of my friends see strangers in their dreams.

None of my family sees strangers in their dreams. But I do see strangers in my dreams. And they are always trying to get my attention. And as I said, it's always a different kind of dream. And today's story is about one of these strangers that came to me in a dream, actually in several dreams.

So this ghost was a man and he first visited me by just a visitation dream of him fixing the wheel of a bicycle. And he was in workout gear and he was wearing a bike helmet. But I did not see his face in this dream. He was fixing this broken wheel of a bicycle and he was wearing a bike helmet and it was a scene that I saw from the side and he did not look at me so I didn't see his face. And there was no message attached to the dream.

I was delivering messages or helping spirits at that time. But he didn't say anything. He just showed me him fixing the front wheel of a bicycle. So that was the first night. Let's say it was on a Monday.

I have no idea what day the week it was but we'll just say that it was on a Monday. So then on Tuesday, the next day, I had a dream. And for some reason I knew that it was the man who was fixing the front wheel of his bicycle. But it was just a knocking, like someone knocking on the door. And it was a loud rap, rap, rap, rap, a loud knocking and it kind of scared me and I woke up.

It startled me awake. And that was the whole dream. Just knock, knock, knock, knock. But I knew that it was the man from the night before, from Monday night with the bike and the bike helmet and the bicycle. And then on Wednesday, we're going to say it was on Wednesday.

On Wednesday I had another dream. And in this dream, I also knew that it was the man with the bicycle and the bike helmet. But I didn't see him. I still didn't see his face. And this time I heard a doorbell ringing, ding dong, ding dong.

And it wasn't as scary as the loud knocking. But I didn't get startled awake, but I woke up thinking maybe is my actual doorbell ringing, although my doorbell was a buzzer at the time. Do not have a ding dong sound, but the doorbell in this dream went ding dong. And I woke up and there was nothing going on. And that was the end of the second dream featuring this man in the bike helmet, although I didn't see him in the dream.

Now the third dream is the one where he actually showed me who he was and truly got my attention. I didn't know what he wanted. But this was the dream in which I put it all together that he was the persistent ghost and really wanted something from me. So in this dream, the Thursday night dream, there was a phone ringing and it wasn't like a landline sound ringing. It was definitely a cell phone ringing.

And it did not wake me up, the cell phone ringing in the dream. I knew it was a dream. And in the dream, I realized that I was in my old bedroom of an apartment that I lived in many years before. And in the dream, I walked over to this bookshelf that I used to have next to my bed in that old apartment where I don't live anymore. But in the dream, I walked over to this bookshelf and face down on one of the shelves of the bookshelf that was next to my old bed in the old apartment was a blue cell phone.

Now I've never had a blue cell phone. So I knew in the dream that this was not my phone, but this was some mystery phone that was in my old apartment on the bookshelf next to my old bed and it was ringing and it was face down. So in this dream, I saw my own hand come out in front of me and go on top of the blue cell phone that was ringing. And in the dream, I picked it up and I turned it over. And there was this man's face, a total stranger and he was wearing a bicamit and he looked at me and he said, hello, as if he had been trying to get my attention for a while and he had been trying to get my attention for a while.

So he was right and I didn't know what to do in this dream and actually the way he said hello was pretty angry, much angrier than the way I just demonstrated it. He said hello in such an angry voice, such a frustrated voice that that woke me up because it was scary the way he was talking to me and I knew it was a ghost and I was a ghost who was angry at me. So there was no message attached here. I did not get this message that I should help him cross over. I was a little new to helping spirits cross over and I didn't know how to contact a ghost that had been in my dream because he wasn't contacting me in my real life.

I wasn't sensing him in the room. He was only coming in the dreams and I did not know what to do. I was also very busy at that time and I wasn't hanging around with people that were really supportive of me helping ghosts to cross over. So I kind of just put it to the side and said, well, there was some man trying to get in touch with me and I don't know what to do and so I left it alone. There were a lot of ghosts over the years that I have had a little bit of contact with and I have not helped to cross over because I didn't know what to do or there was no specific message attached to my sighting of them.

And as I talked about in last week's episode about that ghost that was on the trolley in the cemetery, I think that this podcast is actually being used by the powers that be for me to remember these ghosts that I made contact with however long ago and to inspire me to go find them or to remind me to go find them and help them. So that's what I did with this bike helmet ghost. I did a little bit of meditating and I realized that he wanted to meet with me outside of the apartment that I used to live in. The apartment that was featured in that dream, the apartment that had the bookshelf next to the bed with the blue ringing cell phone on it. I realized that that's where he wanted to meet me.

So I had to rearrange my schedule and I didn't have my car. My car was in this parking lot and so I had to go get the car and I had to drive over to my old apartment and I got there and I double parked because there was no parking spot there. I double parked, I put the blinkers on and I got out and I stood diagonally from my old porch or stoop as they call it in New York City. So as I was standing there standing diagonally not directly in front of my old porch because I actually know the people that live there now and I didn't want them to think that I was waiting for them. Like if they looked out their window they would have seen me standing out in the street in front of the apartment and so I just stood a little over to the side and I stood there and I said okay I'm here and the ghost in the workout gear and the bike helmet came out from the house and walked down the steps and he stood on the sidewalk.

So as I was getting ready to do this thing with this ghost, people on that block it was really busy time. It was like around 6 o'clock or so. It was dark but people just kept coming in and out of their houses like the houses right next door to my old apartment. It was a two family house but people just kept coming in and out and here I am and it's a small residential neighborhood and you know people are going to notice some stranger standing there staring at this house and they don't know me because I haven't lived there in a really long time. The people that live in the house know me but the neighbors don't know me.

I didn't recognize any of them. So I had to be sort of coy and not make it obvious that I was talking to a ghost or staring at this old porch so I kind of looked around and I tried to look like someone who was waiting for someone and that would possibly not alarm the neighbors. I mean I'm a safe looking person in my opinion and you know people are just going to be like oh she's standing out there she must be waiting for someone so I didn't want to be staring so I just sort of looked at the ground but then I would look up at the ghost who is there so that I could communicate with him. He stood there diagonally from me in front of the porch of my old house and he was angry. He was angry just as angry as he had been when I turned over that phone in the dream and he said hello.

So this ghost was angry. I was looking at him and I started to explain that you know it's been a few years since you tried to contact me and then I started to go to this whole thing about you know I don't live here anymore so if you've been waiting in that apartment you know I couldn't and this ghost cut me off. He said that does it matter and I said what am I going to do? And here arguing with the spirit that he misunderstood that I don't live there anymore. No my job is to help him cross over which is what the meditation gave me go help him cross over.

So I immediately just said right you're right that doesn't matter that doesn't matter but the important thing is that I'm here now and you're here now. So I contacted Saint Michael who was probably there the whole time but you know sometimes I just ignore him for a while. I contacted Saint Michael I said Saint Michael what should I do with this man? And Michael told me that this man had died in a bicycle accident and I needed to let the man know that it wasn't his fault. I needed to let him know that it wasn't his fault and he can go now.

He told me that the spirit was carrying a lot of anger and confusion about whatever had happened to him and he told me to really reassure him that it wasn't his fault and now he can go. As soon as I got that message to the ghost Michael immediately told me to contact his spirits who would guide the bickelimic ghost to the other side and as soon as I did that two spirits came immediately and they usually take them by the arms that's what I've noticed when I witnessed this but these two spirits came and they came under this man's feet and sort of pushed him up like an elevator. So he was rising and he had two angels beneath him which is different but people cross over in all sorts of different ways and probably the way they cross over has to do with the way they were stuck on the earth and this is what he needed. He needed to be pushed up to the other side and I felt his relief as always as soon as he crossed over. This spirit had always appeared to me in his bickelimic and he was very angry and frustrated and confused and I think this is my theory that he was mad because he died even though he was wearing his bickelimic or maybe he didn't wear his bickelimic.

Either way his frustration and anger had to do with the helmet one way or the other and it is so sad. Whatever happened to this man is so sad. So last week I talked about sending up a ghost in a cemetery and I did not close up the portal because I figured portals are probably all over the cemetery and probably quite useful in a place like a cemetery. But this portal, the one that I am talking about in this story outside of my old apartment, this portal was on a residential street and although it was near the cemetery it was not in the cemetery so I decided to close up this portal which is what you are really supposed to do. So I walked over to right in front of the house but I didn't face the house in case the people I know looked out the window.

I turned my back to the house and I very subtly closed up the portal. And the whole thing took about two minutes probably the whole thing, the conversation with the ghost, the crossing over, the closing of the portal, probably because the spirit was so ready. Michael was so ready to give in the message and this spirit was so ready to cross over once he got that message. It didn't take long. There was no convincing.

I walked back over to my car which had the blinkers going. I got in the car. I waved goodbye to my old apartment and I drove home and I had my dinner. I'm really glad that I remembered this ghost. I think that St.

Michael and the other powers that be put it into my head under the guise of you need a subject for this week's podcast. But I think it's a way to remind me and to reconnect with these spirits that have contacted me over the years. They're still waiting. Time moves much differently for them. Ten years could seem like a couple days but they are waiting for me and I need to do my job and help them cross over.

So I'm grateful for any message that I get reminding me of a spirit that is waiting for me somewhere to help them cross over. Thank you for listening to today's episode of My True Ghost Stories.
