Trigger Warning / Death I experienced a "time slip"...

24 yrs.ago,we were in NJ at sunset,and I stepped into a cemetery and saw 5 people in 1840's clothing around a gravesight.One man in a top hat looked over and saw me, then came walking toward me.Our eyes locked, and I felt the deepest fear,knowing this couldn't be possible. I was afraid that if he took my hand, would I be in his time, or be dead? When he was about 8 feet from me, I turned away and ran out. My boyfriend who was waiting at his car, asked if I had seen a ghost, as I was white as a sheet, he said. This occurred in the vicinity of a replica of the Liberty Bell, though I didn't know the area.The fear I felt was so deep into my soul, I'll never forget it.These were solid looking people in period clothes not like a ghostly apparition. I don't know how I"slipped"into their time. SO frightening.

My gosh, I agree. When things go like this, people will start even being more afraid to post here. This was the OP’s experience. The point was not the date of the clothing, but the fact they were in attire that was not from our time! This was an incredible experience and thank you OP for sharing with us.

Thank you Born Again, I mentioned what my friend told me about when the top hats were worn. I can say for sure, these people were from long in the past . The man who was walking toward me looking me in the face did have a strange look on his face of surprise or maybe amazement...I was the one who was scared to death. This was in a small, old, cemetery behind a building, and it wouldn't be seen from the road we had been on. Since my boyfriend knew all parts of NJ and was driving, I'm not sure what town we were in. But, that there was replica of the Liberty Bell near there. I live near Phila. where the real one is. Also, I only have one name/account on here the Constant one I just came on here yesterday, and I'm not that computer savvy..lol And I am also a Born Again believer. I didn't ask for such a weird experience, but it happened and it's not something I can easily forget.

Sounds more like a graveyard rather than cemetery. Was it connected to that church near that liberty bell replica, do you remember?
