Paranormal?

[JaY-SinN]

Nearly two years ago when my wife and I seperated/divorced, my best friend moved in with me to help with the mortgage payment, bills, etc. Until that point, there hadn't been any paranormal activity in the house at all. Soon after he moved in I began seeing shadows and hearing tapping, mostly in the kitchen. One night in particular, I was doing dishes and heard someone running into the kitchen; flat out running. I turned to my right to see a shadow on the wall coming into the kitchen, but as it neared my shadow it disappeared.

Hearing noises became a regular thing and we all just got used to it. My friend moved out late Spring '08. The activity died down.

Lately (the past 4 months or so) we've had some activity pick back up. First, we found the ceiling fan switched on (it's ran through a wall switch) in my son's bedroom. Maybe a few days later, we were watching TV in the living room and I was getting up to put away a DVD on the shelf. I thought I heard a whistling coming from the hallway. So I told my fiance' to mute the TV as I thought I heard something. We listened for a couple of minutes and didn't hear anything. I explained what I heard and went to look out the window in the bedroom (right across the hall) to see if someone was outside. No sooner than I had turned to walk across the hall I heard the whistling again, right in my face!

Then there was a short dry spell with no activity until the past few days. My son was passed out on my chest and I was watching TV while Erin took a shower and got ready for bed. She came out and asked me if the lights flickered and I told her that I didn't notice. She said that the lights in the bathroom flickered and she smelled "heat". I checked it out and there wasn't anything going on.

So we were laying in bed, 2 or 3 days later (last night), and she got up to go to the bathroom. She heard a scratch across the wall and a creek from behind her. She turned to check it out and didn't see anything. She came out and told me what had happened and layed back down in bed. We watched TV for a few minutes and the lamp flickered several times. Then we heard more scratching. (Not a continuous scratching like an animal might do, but a single scratch then a pause then another single scratch.) We chalked it up to being the wind blowing branches across the roof (just so we didn't think about it and could go to sleep.) We watched TV for a little while and then decided it was time to sleep. We then heard several noises over the next half an hour. There was a toddler-like verbal outburst (Alden was asleep, though) and a few more scratches and what sounded like footsteps.

We are moving out in a couple of months and I'm having the local ghost hunters (Crawford County Ghost Hunter's Societyhttp://crawfordcountyghosthunters.com/) do an investigation. I'll let you know of the findings (if there are any.)

You’d think it’s a toddler trying to get ‘some attention’ from what you’re describing…

LoL – Once in a while, we’ve got “someone” coming here, who apparently likes to “use the pc”. Honestly!
I have a laptop that I use downstairs. But my hubby has his pc upstairs, in a spareroom.
The chair behind the desk there is old, its one of those swirl all the way around chairs, and it always makes load irritating creaky noises when you sit on it, or move about on it.
And that’s how we always can tell, that the dead guy has come to visit again. You won’t believe the racket “he” makes with the chair! Hell, maybe “he” just likes the chair – who knows. LoL.

Anyways, yes, please let us know what the findings are! I for one, am interested and curious to know.

Sometimes these presences will talk with you if you're willing to listen. Sometimes they won't, or they seem lost in their own world. Remember that you are a creator, and steer your experience in the direction you choose!

Love,

Hello J,

I thought someone was reading my journal as I read your accounts. I have had shadows, noises, whistling type sound in my ear ( wife gets this alot ) and plenty more. Whatever lives with us also is real fond of controlling the T.V. and other devices which use a remote. We have checked over and over when this happens. Almost always, we are able to rule out the dog accidentally clicking the remote and things like that. One time, our phone rang and we decided to let the answering machine get it. After the outgoing message is heard there is a beep and then you leave the message. As we listened to the outgoing message we await the beep. It didn't come. Instead, we heard the phone engage like it does when you pick it up. It will make a different sort of beep sound and that way you know that the phone is on and ready to be used. We both looked at each other as if to say, " But, who picked the phone up?" Of course by the time I got to the phone it was dead as if nothing had happened. By the way, it was just us, no one there who could have gotten the phone.
From what the ghost hunter people say, this could have happened due to someone moving out and someone else moving in. "They" may not have approved. Just something to think about. All in all , I would have to say that it is something you will just have to learn to live with, or in your case, try to move away from it. Yes, I said try. Hope this works out for you.

I guess I should elaborate a little.

We aren't moving to "get away from it". It's just coincidence.

We're renting a house from my uncle that has a huge fenced in backyard and the house itself, though not as nice as our house now, is a bit larger as well. They're re-doing the living room and larger bedroom and when that's finished we'll be moving (I think.)

I understand. I hope you have a great new everything at your new place. Hopefully, you can calmly tell your tales from the comfort of your new place. If not, you might want to come back here again. In my case, which seems very similar to yours, I think there is reason to believe that they may have come along. Either that or I simply moved into a brand new active place.
Hope all is well for you and your family.
