My Dad's mom lives in an old farm house in GA that is haunted. There have been a lot of strange things occur there- an unplugged record player playing was a freaky one. She has heavy solid wood doors that slide into the wall, separating her living room and dining room and several times they have opened and closed loudly. I was always terrified in that house and I would have nightmares after a visit there. All of the bedrooms except my grandmother's are upstairs and once I woke up to the sound of someone running loudly up and down the stairs. That was the last time I slept up there. My dad had some back problems and would frequently sleep on the floor in the living room so I started sleeping on the couch and when Lauren outgrew her playpen I put her on the love seat. My dad passed away in 1999and I haven't been back. I feel terrible but I'm too scared to go there with out him and it's a tiny town with no hotels. I don't know why it doesn't scare my grandmother but it doesn't faze her.
V, my dad and I were best friends and I always thought he would pay me a visit- we both believed so strongly in that possibility- but he never did. I assume he is in a better place where communication isn't possible any longer.
