They said every night you could hear someone walking up and down the stairs. One night while my father was in bed something jerked all the covers off him. Another time my brother who was little at the time came and told my parents there was a man standing at the foot of his bed. There were rumours that the house was the scene of murders. garrettsambo@aol.compurangohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04736445079133017408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-13508196298906418192011-02-20T05:02:46.991+01:002011-02-20T05:02:46.991+01:00I have never seen a ghost but my mom swore she saw...I have never seen a ghost but my mom swore she saw my sister after she died.

When I worked nights, the ice machine was in the basement, and no one would go down to get ice for the patients, because they were certain there were multiple hauntings there. That building was torn down when the new hospital was built (which is now 30 years old and probably has its own ghosts!)--don't know what happened to the ones from the old building, since that spot is now the parking lot.<br /><br />cgclynsg0 at gmail dot comclynsghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12613847302180411910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-10523958744204820142011-02-19T14:14:44.769+01:002011-02-19T14:14:44.769+01:00Whoops forgot my email...

His job in our house was to keep my kids safe and he did it well. We first noticed him when our twin girls were babies. When they where just a few weeks old we would put them on bed w/o their pacifers. When we woke we, they had their pacifers safely in their mouths. He would protect them during the night. Our son had asthma, when he had an attack our ghost would wake us. He was a great caretaker. When we sold the house and I was cleaning it he got upset. He would turn off the vaccum at the switch, turn down th radio and he even looked me out of the house. After we moved we never saw him again. I hoped he might have moved on...Lady_Graeyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02697093619684822302noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-64657521979029830262011-02-19T12:28:49.157+01:002011-02-19T12:28:49.157+01:00I HAVE seen a ghost...when my Grandma died of Alzh...I HAVE seen a ghost...when my Grandma died of Alzheimers she came to my bedroom and smiled at me.

And one night I woke up at 3:45 am to loud snoring. I looked up and saw the silhouette of a man lying on his back on the bed across from mine. I went back to sleep wondering if my dad had an argument with my mom and if he put away the clothes on the bed before lying down. The next morning at breakfast I asked my dad but he said that he slept in his bed the whole night, though he woke up at around 3:45 am.<br /><br />To this day I don't know if it was an astral projection of my dad or a ghost, but I'm sure of 2 things: the snoring was so loudd it not only woke me up but I even heard it once awake, and that I saw the shape of a man sleeping in the exact position my dad usually does.<br /><br />I didn't freak out, because I feel even safer if I think my dad visited me to watch over me in his sleep. :-)<br /><br />I tweeted: http://twitter.com/Stella_ExLibris/status/38273838898749440<br /><br />Posted on Facebook: http://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=187457954628532&id=100000899165880<br /><br />Thank you for the interesting post Mara, and congrats, your book covers do look lovely!<br /><br />stella.exlibris (at) gmail (dot) comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08595369872159009395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-15820083956261985472011-02-17T15:30:32.185+01:002011-02-17T15:30:32.185+01:00I have never seen a ghost.

As i tried to fall asleep i glanced at the open door to the bathroom and kept seeing this dark hooded figure floating at the door way. I dont get scared that easily so I kept blinking my eyes hoping it'd go away but then it seemed like it was floating closer and closer to my side of the bed. It was so freaky and i hid under the covers till morning :(<br /><br />Jamad<br />jazzy_jay673@hotmail.comJayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08314115221517509661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-44455091583509427072011-02-16T07:10:14.587+01:002011-02-16T07:10:14.587+01:00I think I've seen a ghost.

I was walking to my room and I could have sworn I saw a person leave my room and enter my sister's. I thought it was one of my family members but to be sure I took note of where everyone was and sure enough no one was near the bedroom area, I didn't even bother to tell anyone because since no one was close by it's impossiblr that they saw it too. I have to admit i was scared of going into my room but after I checked my sister's I knew nothing was there. At night I'm sure my mind plays tricks on me and I see my music stand become a scry figure, so yeah I'm still spooked. :|<br />-Kimberly Meza<br />chapis.luvs@gmail.comKimberly (ksmeza)https://www.blogger.com/profile/17345874356130348903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5332990871059750176.post-30886886845592698432011-02-16T05:56:41.090+01:002011-02-16T05:56:41.090+01:00I saw one in the house I grew up in.
