Haunted House?

TriX Loc: Raleigh, NC
 
We live in a home where 5 generations have lived, and 4 family members have died here. My cat often stares at a particular spot and my 3 year old granddaughter recently pointed to the same spot and said “who is that?”. I’m not at all concerned that their spirits remain here - they all were loved and died peacefully in their own beds (we all wish that I think) and if their spirit remains, I find that comforting.

When my father in law was dying, a Brown Thrasher, a bird we had never seen here before, arrived and began staring and occasionally pecking on the window to his room. He stayed there for days until my father in law died, and ever since for the last ten years, we have had a Brown Thrasher regularly visit the bird feeder outside our breakfast room window and stare at us through the window for long periods - we always greet him. Here in the South, there’s long history of bids staying at the window of a dying person. Coincidence? Urban legend? Maybe, but I have a different opinion.

Does the radio have an alarm on it. Maybe it was set for when you started hearing it because someone had inadvertantly moved the alarm button to the on position.

Wow! There's the perfect location for a movie. Almost every horror movie has a chair rocking by itself.


The chair would have just been a calm opening scene. The rest would have scared most people out of the theatre!

Do you live anywhere near Amityville?
Sounds close to Catskill

Lots of strange things happen, and we have no idea what causes them. The cat and your granddaughter is creepy, though.

I've lived in two houses where relatives died. Although their passing bothered me, I'm not afraid of their ghosts coming back.

“HAL, what are you doing?”
“I’m sorry, Dave, I cannot answer that.”

Worried? Maybe. It begins with electronics. Then it moves to physical harm!


Are you having any "Ooh-Eeh-Ooooohhh" Music in the background?

Oh yeah, flashing lights outside?

Just like in the movie "Maximum Overdrive".

Even if they are asking for the rent money?



(Just curious. )
