I grew up in a haunted house, and they just showed up whenever. Day or night, but they seemed to have favorite areas.

My first house after getting married was a bungalo built in the 50's in Dearborn, MI. Weird creepy feelings in the upstairs bedroom and down in the basement at times, with no reason for it. Odd knocks on the walls from one of the bedrooms. We later turned that bedroom into the nursery for the twins. One night after my wife went to bed and the kids were still babies, my son was being fussy. I went up (I was in the basement) to quiet him, then went back down. Later he was fussy again. I went to his room and saw the shadowy profile of a woman leanning over his crib. Thinking it was my wife, I turned around to leave when I saw into our bedroom across the hall and saw my wife still asleep. I turned back and there was no one there. He was quiet for the rest of the night after that. Creepy...

So, yes, I do believe in "ghosts", whatever they may be.

I don't think she was trying to hurt him, just checking up on him like a grandmother or something. I do know someone had been killed in the front yard of that house years back, driver came off the road and struck them down. Don't know if that was a man or a woman, however.

Interesting. One of ours was a lady who would watch me play with my dolls. The only time she made me nervous was when she got between me and the door. On a side note, I was too lazy to change my Barbies' clothes, so there was a lot of screaming "Off with her head!" in that room while I performed doll-to-doll transplants. Maybe that got the ghost's attention.

Default Real Haunted Houses

Hello to all you spooky people out there! I have a question...is there a REAL haunted house in your neighborhood or do you live in one? Tell us a little bit about it. I love the series Ghost Hunters and the few times I have watched when there was actually something that could not be explained I was thrilled!
My sisters tell me when I was very young, (two years old) that we lived in a haunted house in Warsaw, NC. I don't remember it, but my older sister swears she saw a ghost floating down the hallway and none of my three older sisters would sleep alone in their bedrooms. Before my Mother passed away she would talk about it and swear to me that the house had a "bad" feeling about it and that pictures would just fall off the wall all the time. We drove by the house last summer and I wanted to go inside, but there is a family living there now. In the town I live in now there is a paranormal research group and supposedly several houses that have had activity. NC is big with unexplained things like the Devil's Tramping Ground, the Hoof prints at Bath, the ghosts of Fort Macon in Atlantic Beach, and the ghost light of Fremont. I am getting scared just thinking about it all!

There appears to be a mountain of evidence out there that suggests that paranormal activity is real, whether ghostly or not. I am a skeptic first and believer second. I find ghosts to be a fascinating subject but also believe there is a logical explanation to some of it. I don't believe I have ever witnessed a ghost but know people that have and I have no reason to disbelieve them.

Haha, yes, yes we do.

It all began back in 1860, when George Dalton, his wife, and his newborn son bought a large piece of farming land. on which he built a large plantation style manor. Several years pass with out incident, until there son runs away, never to be seen again. The boys mother was so distraught, that she leaped from the roof to her death. The husband, not wanting to be in the home anymore, sells it to a 22 year old Dr. Leander G. Hunt his wife, and his 3 year old son. A year later, Mrs. Hunt gets pregnant with their daughter Daisy Hunt. At the same time, the "good doctor" is having an affair with the local harlot, unknowingly getting her pregnant. About 15 years later, said harlot shows up on the doctors door step, terribly sick with her son. She then informs the doctor that the boy is his son, and that he must give him a job or she will let the entire town know, thus ruining his reputation. He agrees and gives the boy a job as stable boy. Soon, the Dr. comes down with pneumonia and dies, at the same time, Daisy falls in love with the stable boy (unknown to her, her half brother) and has "relations". The older brother dislike the fact that his sister is together with someone of such a low social status, so he devises a plan. Late one stormy night, the late Mrs. Hunt calls for assistance in the barn. The boy runs to the barn to help, but as soon as he steps in the door slams shut, trapping him inside, where he is shot twice in the back, and once in the head by Daisy's older brother. Daisy hearing the shot, runs to get the authorities, they are taken into custody but the brother escapes to Texas and the mother is acquitted do to the fact that daisy was pregnant and needed assistance taking care of the child. The child is born with albinism and a rare skin disease that causes his skin to be dry and scaly. To avoid bringing more shame to the family, they kept Jonathon locked in the basement, where he went insane. He began to escape and murder people, hiding their bodies in the properties well. After the second string of murders, Daisy's mother committed suicide by hanging her self off the second story balcony. No one really knows what happened to Daisy or Jonathan, but Daisy;s brother moved back from Texas and started another family in secret. Now the old house was purchased by an old man who refuses to let anyone onto the property, threatening them with a shot gun if they draw to near, but before then, local teens began to spend the night in the house, reporting strange events. Some of these happenings include a full body apparition leaping from the roof, voices, shouts, footsteps, the sound of gunshots, strings ropes and shoelaces left in the building over night were later retrieved only to find them tied into neuses. Also, reports of crying coming from the well and growls and animal like noises coming from the basement.
