Reply #35: have experienced ghosts [View All]

[radfringe]

a couple of friends and I rented an old house for the winter. The owners used it only in the summer and needed someone to care for the home during the winter. It had 17 rooms.

without going into detail - things that happened

- pots and pans banging in the kitchen when no one was in the kitchen

- footsteps running up and down the stairs, and back hall

- feeling "weight" on the bed like someone sitting there

- sounds like someone shoveling coal into the furnace (house was heated with coal at one point but had been converted to oil years before

- doors opening, nobody there (wind, drafts, loose floorboards as possible causes investigated and found nothing)

- little girl in striped dress stood at the foot of one friend's bed in the middle of the night

- rooms and areas in the house you just didn't want to be in

- fresh cut roses that were brought into the house would be black and dead the next morning

- wake up in the middle of the night with a real creepy and frightening feeling that someone was watching you

- stereo would go on by itself and play a stack of records

- wicker chair (not a rocking one) would shift backwards like someone getting out of it quickly when you went by it
