Geez, I could literally write a novel about all the stuff that's gone on there.
Let see, some of the things that have happened around our house over the years...
--Hubby was watching TV and heard someone choking...ran into the kitchen to ask if I was OK, to which I said, "Um, yeah...why?" He said, "You weren't in here choking or coughing just now?" Uh...nope.
--Was sitting in the kitchen working one day and the ottomon in the living room 'moved' off the carpet and across the tile entry in front of the door on it's own.
--Have heard muffled talking coming from other rooms in the house when no one was there.
--Was sitting in the living room just a few weeks ago and the knob on the front door shook, like someone was coming in, but there was no one there, no one anywhere outside. The dogs actually heard it to and got up to go bark at the door like they generally do.
--The clencher that confirmed my suspicions...Sent hubby to get me a drink on night while I was in the bathroom getting ready for bed, cut the light off, came to bed, looked up to see him walking from the door, across by the foot of the bed, sat up to get my drink from him about the time the REAL him opened the bedroom door and came in....turned back and whatever it was that I had seen was gone.
--Now this is REALLY BIZARRE. My family knew I'd joked about our 'visitor' before, but we always just blew it off. So 2 days after I saw this 'thing' in my bedroom, I went to pick up my daughter from Mom's house (she'd picked her up from school) and told her about it, figuring she would actually take me seriously. As I was telling this story, she stared at me with her mouth hanging open and then finally told me that I would be interested in what my daughter had told her that afternoon. She said when she was walking out to her car at school, she kept turning to look behind her. She asked her what was wrong when she got in the car and my daughter told her that all day she felt like someone was following her, but there was never anyone there. My mom asked her if she knew who 'it' was and my daughter just said, "No...but it's someone...familiar?"
Weird thing is, we bought the house brand new. My whole neighborhood is a new development and we were the first owners. A few weeks ago, we decided to hike up this big mountian that the houses back up to because someone told us there was a waterfall up there. (and there is...there's actually a stream that flows down the side of the mountain) While tracking through the woods, we found all these old stones that were clearly once the foundation of a house or something and found all these remnants of mining equipment and old troughs that were rusted out and broken scattered about. So clearly, there used to be activity in the area long before our houses were ever built.
