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.

That would scare me too! Though I have to admit, I love staying at B&Bs on vacation and I keep hoping to have some kind of experience when I'm there, but nothing so far!

nikki & villette,,, ask god everynight to give you a sign, and he will.

I had a very frightening thing happen several times when I was about 4 years old. At the time, we rented a home in upstate N.Y., across from a cemetery. I was lying in bed, lights out...I opened my eyes and saw a figure come out from behind the closet door!!!!!! :eek: To this day, I can picture him. He was all black, no facial features, thin, with like a pointy chin! Now, he would remind me of an alien or a devil face!!! :eek: He came over to me and tickled my ribs reallllly painfully!!!! I remember saying, "Please stop". This happened several times!! I told my Mom and she said, "Oh, honey, you were dreaming'. NO I WASN'T, EITHER!!!!!! Now, when the lights go out for bed, I DO NOT look around!!!!!!!!

:eek: That would scare me to death!

I am a believer in ghosts and demons. Have had experiences with both.

I've had a few strange experiences that just could not be explained. The first one was when my parents were in a horrific car accident. Something or someone "told me" that something terrible had happened and that I should find my Mom! My oldest daughter sees and feels ghosts all the time. They are all around us.

I totally believe that children have such a stronger ability to see and percieve ghosts. I think it is their untainted souls.

IT DID!! That's probably what's wrong with me now!! :p

These stories are creeping me out! Here's my story, and it's been posted here before...
I moved to a new city for college about 4 years ago. It was over 4 hours from home and I didn't know anyone there. I moved into this old apartment in a building that looked like an old army barracks. I just got a terrible feeling when I went inside. I actually CRIED and called my parents. I was only there for two weeks before I had to get out. I heard noises constantly, but I convinced myself that they were noises from the other apartments. Windows would slam shut when there was no wind. I could hear water running in the bathroom but when I went in there, there was nothing. One afternoon I was taking a nap in my bedroom with my door closed tightly shut and I woke up to my bedroom door flying open, and I was honestly scared stiff... I couldn't move.
My mom came down to help me find a new place to live after I'd been there for a week. She is a complete skeptic about all that kind of stuff. After spending the first night there, she told me she got a weird feeling from the place. She had been sleeping on the couch in the living room and the bathroom light was on with the door open just a sliver. She said she opened her eyes and saw the sliver of light getting bigger and smaller (no windows were open) and she looked and saw the door opening and closing. She had to go turn off the light to pretend it wasn't happening.

Just to let ya'll know I could NOT fall asleep last night after reading all of these stories! I kept looking around and I actually slept with the light on LOL. :embarasse :embarasse

LOL! I don't like my arms or legs hanging over the side of the bed even now!!!

I have never had ghost encounters but I do have deja vu ALOT. Almost everyday, like someone will be telling me something but it feels like I have already seen this whole scenario. The one that creeped me out the most was when I went to London someone asked me where some street was and I told them exactly where it was with all the streets that preceded it was. I had never been there and it was my first day there. It was so creepy.
