Ghost in house ?

I dont deny nor accept that there are ghosts. The Bible tells us that there are angels and demons and that folks can be possessed. It also says we all have a spirit. Can that spirit wander around and do weird shit? Maybe. Maybe not. I do know that I have seen/heard/felt some weird stuff before. Ghosts? Dont really know.

How have I missed this thread???

I can tell some stories of the paranormal that I bet nobody would believe. But thats ok.
As I've learned, it's not always a structure that has paranormal/supernatural/demonic attachments to it, it's items. In my house I have a museum of antiques dating back to the early 1700s some of them. It's fascinating to invoke what's in it and to experiment with. Getting it to go away is the challenge.
I'll place this information here, hidden in plain sight because I know that it will be pushed to the wayside of disbelief. For anyone intrested in the study, here you go....
In my house, not because of its structural history, but rather the attachments of items within, it is not safe to spend the night here. Never has any visitor not had a shaking experience or not end up needing psychological attention. My own mom stayed for over a week and was in the process of emailing suicide notes when arrested from a library down the street, and had no recollection of It. It was because of events here. Most common occurence is demonic oppressions that will latch on and cause suicidal actions and amplify substance abuse. One will notice that I never close any doors in the house besides the front and side entry doors. Theres a good reason for it. I get tired of staying up all night hearing voices and I prefer to let them roam freely. The second I close a door, I hear the voices. I have a cat trained to stand guard and prevent it from disturbing me in my sleep. Theres the typical displacing of things, symbolic markings on items, voices, etc. I've grown to like it, now that i know to keep people away for their own safety atleast.

Now I really want to come down and see your place man.
 
Thought I updated this thread or maybe started another , Taps guys came stayed 2 nights.
while there they got doors closing and latching ,a P.c turning on the little light things they set up in door way would go off in a fashion as if someone was walking from back bedroom to front area then back again.
My now Ole lady only stayed one night there and would never stay again . she swears while sleeping someone pulled covers straight up she was holding on to them. she at first thought it was me messing with her then she seen i was still next to her .
I moved out shorty after that . I still have dvds from Taps . said they couldn't use on TV because I didn't own house and leasing company would not give permission
 
I am sorry, but I found two more.............

I started my story but realized it would take a while. Short version, we have a ghost named Carl. He shot himself in the head in the attic where he stays. He has been very active at times showing himself to me and my family and any female that I ever brought around. He has only hurt me but did cause health issues to a female that I should never have brought here. Lights and fans have been turned on many times. Items have been moved and hidden and then put back where they were, we have seen impressions where he is sitting beside us on couches and the bed, he dumped me out of bed and I saw him standing above me, etc.,
There are two defining moments. One was exwife and me and infant son went to dinner. She was always losing keys and we had a new '97 Tahoe and she locked keys in truck while I was inside store. I had a fireman bring me home to get the spare off of the BRAND NEW RACK I HAD MADE THAT DAY BECAUSE EXWIFE ALWAYS LOST KEYS! I had put the spare on the rack that day. I come into house and key is not there. I dump it off on table and me and fireman look for key and no key. I put the rack back on the wall and went back and broke the window out of a new truck to get my 3 month old son out and us home. Got home and the freaking key is on that rack that we had just dumped on the table!
Second story is when current wife moves in (and knows about Carl but is very wary) we are watching tv and she is on my laptop. Laptop battery dies completely and she puts it on the ottoman and starts to sit beside me on couch and all of a sudden we hear two little girls voices coming out of laptop like they were on a playground laughing and talking! Wife screams and runs into bedroom and covers herself under the covers crying! I am laughing my ass off because I told her he was here! I checked the laptop and was very dead so nothing was playing.
Carl continued to make himself known to us for many years after that but it has all slowed down withing the past 3-4 years.
There are many other stories...
 
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading through this thread, a thanks goes out to who ever bumped it back up from the dead (pun kinda intended).

Anyhow, even though i would describe myself as an extremely sceptical person, I do enjoy hearing first hand stories like this.

I guess deep down, I for some reason want to believe there are things out there that science and current human understanding can't completely explain......
 
I'm glad none from some of the previous places we've lived followed us. Top hat dude that looked demonic, though he stayed outside thankfully. My parents old house had a friendly ghost I saw when I was a young lad - it was casper-like and only saw once/twice but my mom and uncle both had issues with the push button lights changing on their own - I think that was related. Also doors closing on their own. I'll try to remember if there was more occurrences in my/wife's more recent history.
 
So going back to my most recent issues going on in our house... Wife is still terrified and cried to me last night about the episode on Sunday night where she saw a tall shadow that resembled a man standing in front of our closet in our bedroom. I was there when it happened and didn't see anything. She gets me freaked out and last night, we had been messing with our indoor antenna because the stations had been breaking up, so I adjusted it and had set it behind the TV between some wires so that it would stay still. About an hour after going to bed, I had just fallen asleep and I hear this loud bang that sounded like it came from downstairs... I jumped up, grabbed my gun and cleared the house...turns out, the antenna had fallen, hit our router which hit the floor. I know, it can happen to anyone and at anytime. Just scared the chit out of both us and there wasn't much sleep to be had that night and just weird that it happened the night we talked about since it happened on Sunday and I was sure I mounted that thing fairly well as I didn't want to have to adjust it again once I found the sweet spot. Wife is wondering if we need to say the Lord prayer and tell whatever it is to leave or what. Have been hearing a lot of noises lately at night... things that I don't remember hearing before, but also don't know if I am just so on edge that every little noise is freaking me out or what.

All I know about ghosts, spirits, what have you is what I have seen in movies and heard stories about. I have seen some weird stuff as a child but always thought it was just from waking up and my mind playing tricks on me or whatever. I will admit that I am not sleeping well at night, mainly because my mind is constantly racing and wondering if I am ever gonna see what my wife saw...
 
Only "ghost" Ive ever actually seen are those "ghost bucks" that show up right at daybreak, and then somehow turn into frickin bushes as it gets light...

Talk to them/it some. Tell him you want to help him get to where he is going and that it's ok that he is there with y'all but that he needs to try to move on. It will make you both more comfortable. They supposedly want to get to the other side but are stuck on this side and if you try to help them they will try also.
I have lived this stuff since 1996 when I bought this house and for whatever reason, Carl has calmed down so much that most of the time we think he has moved on...but I think he comes back for visits sometimes lol
 
...And speaking of visits Carl has followed us to a couple places and even followed my old housekeeper/friend home. We went to my brother's house at the beach with them one weekend and for two weeks after we left their lights and fans would be on all of the time. The neighbor would call my brother and tell him that everything was on and the neighbor had a key so he would go shut them off but the next night they would all be on again. My brother asked me to call Carl home and he eventually did stop messing with his lights and fans!
I can go on and on...

How are you suppose to help them move on to the other side, with a match?
 
The house I grew up in was surrounded by a cemetery. Not that the location had everything to do with it, but I'm sure it could have. The house itself was old....built in the late 40s/early 50s I believe. I always seemed to have an infatuation with the paranormal since I was a kid...maybe something to do with growing up in that place. I'd fairly frequently "feel" odd and unnatural things around me. One night in my teenage years, I was staying up late watching TV. We kept our dogs in crates then. One of them grew restless, scratching around in his crate, clawing at the door and making odd noises. I looked at him to see what was wrong, as he sat there sitting with his ears perked straight up and making that whining growl that dogs do when something is up. Then I realized he wasn't looking at me, but looking past me, over my shoulder. Of course, the hair on the back of my neck stood straight out. I turned around, thinking maybe my brother or mother woke up. I saw a shadow figure in the hallway, then saw it move toward the kitchen. I thought to myself that it seemed odd, maybe I'm just tired....I'll get myself a drink of water and then probably go to bed. The way that house was set up (it was small, maybe 800-900 square feet) the kitchen and living room/dining area were separated by an L-shaped wall. I went into the kitchen from the other direction that I saw the figure, and turned on the light. The cabinet door above the sink that contained all the glasses and cups opened on its own, right before my eyes. Needless to say, I didn't have any water, but went straight to bed and of course didn't sleep a wink.

My mother also said that she sometimes felt what she thought to be icy cold fingers touch her face on occasion while she was sleeping. The dogs would periodically stare at/growl at apparently nothing (or was it?). It was a regular thing to have items move from where they were last placed...my mother always thought it was me or my brother moving things to try to be a brat.

Sometimes I wonder if one of them somehow attached itself to me. I've gotten used to it for the most part. I'll occasionally still see it when I'm on the edge of falling asleep or waking up. Some might consider that to be an overactive imagination. But I've regularly seen a figure looming over me or next to me standing next to the bed. The only time it really still freaks me out is if I have an episode of what I can only figure to be a form of sleep paralysis. I'll be conscious, but barely able to open my eyes. I can't move or speak, I can only breathe. I'll clearly see a figure next to the bed. One particular instance, I heard a disembodied voice say "I'm waiting for you."

So, needless to say, I believe in this stuff.

It's almost sad to see a Google Maps image of the place now. Some of the old structures that were around the house are no longer there. Who even knows what the red and white box-looking things are...seeing how the trees are overgrown next to the house leads me to believe the place is probably vacant and in shambles. Even though it was tiny, I kind of miss the place.

Yesterday, I went home for lunch and I had a little convo with whatever it is. I told it that they were scaring my wife and I and that we needed it to leave and then I also said the Lord Prayer. Afterwards, I felt really good and my wife came home and said that she feels like a weight had been lifted off of her.

That fawker hitched a ride home with me & @Tater from WindRocks! Fortunately, he must have missed you and took off back south!

While this stuff is not particularly fun when its possibly happening to you, it is fun to read about and hear other peoples' experiences. There is no way in hell I could have mentally survived the stuff you have experienced. I could be locked in a padded room, rocking back and forth sucking my thumb.

I am glad y'all got some peace speaking to your spirit. It will still come back and it's still frightening because it's not of our regular world but you can either get used to it or freak out. Carl has only done harm to me twice, once after I kicked my exwife out and once I think it was just a good opportunity because I was working in his attic. My attitude is that he lives here too and who am I to kick him out?, he lived here first. I'll live in peace if he will.
