Do you believe in haunted places?

[tpryce93]

It's hard to know 'what to think' exactly when there are strange occurrences that occur with you personally. I believe you.

About 8 years ago, my family moved into a townhome. I was upstairs by myself and my husband, brother, and mom were downstairs. I heard glass break, and then the sound of it being swept up into a dustpan and thrown into trash. These sounds are very distinct. I yelled down to my family and asked what they broke, and they said they heard it too and thought I had broken something. Okay.... went on my merry little way, didn't read too much into it.

About two months later, my daughter was 6 years old and she was brushing her teeth and getting ready for bed. I noticed the lights going on and off, and at that same time....my daughter comes running down the stairs, very excited and breathing hard saying "Mom, come quick, please, hurry!" I asked what was wrong, she was obviously distressed. "Mom, every time I turn the light on in my bedroom, 'someone' is turning it off!" Then she said, "Call Dad and ask him to come home, tell him it's an emergency!" (Like I couldn't take care of this---had to laugh a little to myself). So, I told her "I'll go upstairs with you sweetie, I'm sure there's a reason for the lights going on and off." So, I go up the stairs (and I will tell you....I'm a little afraid now). I go into each room, check each closet and room, and she's holding on to me like there's no tomorrow...it's hard to move that's how she's clinging to me. I turn on and off the lights in all the rooms....no problem....until I go back downstairs and she's alone again. This time though, I'm watching her from the bottom of the steps in the bathroom, and can see the bedroom light going on and off for myself and my daughter is no where close to the bedroom. I came across brave with my daughter, but I wasn't inside at all. I was very concerned about what was occurring.

Then we started hearing footsteps. My husband was home alone one day, came up from the basement and he said "someone obviously walked across our livingroom and right past me, because I could 'feel' the breeze and the footsteps in the carpeting go right along beside me." Well....there you have SIX people who had all experienced strange happenings, and we could not put a logical reason as to why they did occur, we just know they happened. Believe me, you WANT LOGICAL REASONS, because things unexplained are not comfortable.

We moved and bought a house. End of occurrences. That's all I know.

I appreciate non-believers though, very much....I used to be one myself.

1. It's very possible you left a t.v. on or something and that's what you heard. or your family was playing a trick on you.

2. electrical problem. probably could of called an electrician and figured out the problem.

3. people FEEL stuff all the time. like i said before it's a mind trick.

more witnesses and no tricks

Or it could be a ghost/spirit.
I live with one, and we live where we work, and the employees have also noticed so I know it can and does happen.
And this is not the first place.

it COULD be a ghost. let's not go jumping to conclusions here. which is more logical a ghost or the reason i pointed out?


and could you give me an example of one of the experiences that happened with the "ghost" you live with.

[2 Minute Warning]

I have many, I have lived here over 20 years.
It can move things and make noises that have no other explanation.

And, have dealt with spirits before so know the feeling.

The scariest place closest to me? Definitely my brother's room. PHEWY! I think his socks are possessed or something!

[The Executioner]

Hmm, yes I believe in haunted places, I believe spirits are real. Yeah, I've been to a lot of them.

Hell I am The Executioner........

[underrated29]

ok sorry the wife just got a tatoo and spilled something on it..putz

ok so where was i

umm , oh ok

so she sets up killer claus but now he is next to a mrs. killer claus, i asked my mom where she found the first one and how she put it back together, she said she didnt, then i asked her where she found mrs. killer claus, she said she couldnt remember.

now spirits ghosts, all that i dont care if they are real and i really dont believe one way or the other- i know wierd sh1t happens but i am not the one to figure it out, i am jsut there to whitness or whatever, but this was pretty scary- not only did he fix himself and follow us to our new house, he multiplied and got an evil mrs. killer claus

so one night we all got together me and my two friends and we smashed killer claus with a sledge hammer, then we set the pieces on fire, except for one part of his chair, then (we live close to the train tracks) threw part of his and hers by the way ashes into the train, then i buried one part of her chair the next day at school. and my other friend had to go to utah and he said he threw the last piece in a lake- so as to never see either killer claus again

so far so good, but eewwww.. i still get the chills about that one. ya know typing it out, it really sounds stupid, being afraid of a 7 inch santa claus in a rocking chair, but it was creepy


and wow the lights thing yikes. reminds me of that one movie based on actual events, oh what was it called not phenomenon, or spirit or ghost but something like that... ah yes THE ENTITY- good eerie movie, check it out

[MileHighStud]

Heres a pretty cool site regarding this kind of stuff. They have pretty cool pics/ sounds (EVP's)/ Stories etc. I havent been to this site for a while, but it appears it kinda went commercial. Anyhow, enjoy!!

Yeah I believe in hauntings. The closest place to me that is haunted..... ....... There is a junior high school down the street where a kid hung himself in the auditorium. I have heard that spooky thing happen there.

Jumping to conclusions? Until you actually experience an "incident" that actually repeats itself or follows you, you may not be a believer. I have a story that happened in the year 1981 and to this day, my friend will still not talk about it.

This story happened in Dubuque Iowa.

Out of high school, some friends of mine joined a company called A-Z Inventory based in Evergreen CO and we would travel in vans all over the midwest and take inventory at hardware stores, K-Marts and places like that.

We landed at the K-Mart in Dubuque and began our jobs of counting. About an hour in, I started hearing my best friend call my name. Clear as a bell and it sounded like he was right behind me. I would turn around and nobody was there. This went on for about another hour. Every few minutes I would hear him call my name. It got to the point I was getting mad thinking he was playing a joke on me.

I finally went and found him. He was clear across the store and had no idea what I was talking about. I went back to work and it started again. This went on all day and started freaking me out.

Once we were done with the store that day, we were taken out to dinner at Dennys. The restaraunt was empty and the waitress said we could sit where ever we wanted.

4 of us sat at this table next to a window. Everyone else scattered around the dining area. We sat at this table maybe 3 minutes when as I was looking at my friend, I clearly heard him say my name once again and his lips never moved. I looked around at everyone sitting at our table and after I heard it a third time, I finally asked "did anybody else hear that?" They started teasing me about losing my mind.

About a minute later my friend said he felt a sudden cold spell on him. A drastic cold air. He said "I don't want to sit at this table anymore". So we all moved over to the center of the room and sat at a new table. We barely got ourselves situated when all of a sudden a very LARGE BAM was heard. We look over and the chandelier that was above the table we just moved from crashed into that table and busted it all to hell. We completely freaked.

Now the story gets intense.

After dinner, we all went over to our hotel. We are all doubled up in rooms. Each room has two double beds and my friend and I were room mates. My friend jumped in the shower and I laid on my bed and turned on the TV. We had to get up very early so I told him that I was going to go to sleep and cuddled up. He watched TV for awhile, turned off the light and went to sleep.

About an hour into sleep, I get woken up by a choking sound. It was loud and as I was attempting to figure out what I was hearing, it dawned on me that it was my friend. Garble garble choke choke. It sounded desperate and serious. While he was making the garble garble sounds, I turned on the light between our beds and the instant the light came on, he shouted "THE LIGHT". He was trying to tell me to turn on the light. Once that light came on, he was released.

He sat up and with his eyes the size of silver dollars he just stared at me and asked me why. I said "Why what?" He felt somebody sit down on his bed and begin holding his throat down to the pillow. He could not move. Only attempt to speak with said garble and choking sounds. He thought I did it to him.

Several seconds tick by and both of us look over and see what appears to be a man standing behind the TV in the corner. We look at each other and then look back. Both of us saw it.

There was a map of the city on the wall covered with a plexiglass cover that showed a reflection of light that came through the slightly cracked curtains. The reflection started to change from one corner moving diagonally. It turned bright purple and stayed that way for about a minute. The next thing we know, we hear something smack the table in the room that was next to the TV. The image of the man was gone and thats when we noticed the bible on the table was now opened.

I went over, picked it up and just started reading. I do not recall the chapter or verse but I remember reading the following statement. "Do not be afraid, he is only here to guide you". Now if there was some presense there "guiding" us, then why did the entity or whatever it was attempt to hurt my friend? After discussing what we had experienced all day, my friend said that it was trying to keep him quiet and communicate with him. Once I turned that light on, the entity had let him go.

We didn't sleep the rest of the night and we never told anybody else what had happened.

This next day, we had to get back in our vans and travel to Texas. We were about 1/2 day into the drive when all of a sudden our van driver swerved and ran us off the road. We almost collided with a road sign as the van skidded, pulled a donut and came to a stop. The driver was frantically looking around in the road. He then asked if any of us had seen the man standing in the road. My friend and I looked at each other and felt numb. There was no man in the road and we were out in the middle of nowhere. After looking at each other for a minute we both asked him to describe the man that he saw and guess what. Yep... just like the image we saw in our hotel room the night before. A short man that looked like he was wearing a robe or coat or something.

We made sure everyone was OK, got the van back on the road and continued our drive. After that nothing else happened but I will NEVER forget that entire experience and like I said, my friend refuses to talk about this even now.

Take this story as you will, but nobody will ever convince me that we were imagining this or that there was some logical explanation for all that had happened.

Do you or do you not. What is the scariest place that is close to you

I do. I believe that Hummel Park in North Omaha, Nebraska is the scariest place. I believe it could be used as a gate way to hell. There are satanic rituals performed there (rumor but I think it is true). I will never step foot in there. EVER. It is really scary. If you want to know more, google it.

I used to go there a lot as a teen, it used to be real fun to go at night and try to freak yourself out.

wow thats so crazy it sounds fake, im sure it really happened but things that scary you usually only see in movies, wow! trying to guide you, seems like everything he was doing was guiding you to death-glad that wasnt the case-good story

If I am able to tell this story sitting around a table, I have literally had people make me stop. This is in fact a true story.

And I left out some small details. For example that day taking inventory at K-Mart, the lightening was striking all around the building with the thunder vibrating the whole store.

Im not saying your lying, but why would you read the bible and not get the hell out of the room?
