From: Where's my map???
Ok I'll give you another one. The same sister and husband moved to Virginia just outside of Winchester. They were hired to be caretakers of a large estate. The person who owned the estate. This name should ring a bell for some,was none other than Edwin Wilson. Anyway Myself and a friend went down to give them a hand remodeling a house on the property that was to become theirs. We had gotten down the night before. Got up early to start helping. As i was crossing the pasture I could see that the plumbers were already there. Good I said to myself. Maybe we will have some heat by the end of the day. Just as I got to the front door,both plumbers came running out.
I asked one of them. What the hell is going on. I'm thinking the place is on fire.
The one guy says. "we are not going back in there. That place is haunted. Got in their truck and left. They even left all their tools behind. Curious George that i am. I went in. Hanging on the wall by a nail,was a small radio playing. I walked the whole house and saw nothing. As I was getting ready to leave to inform my sister of the problem.
The radio went to static. I went over to turn it off. Just as I reached up the dial on the radio started sliding back and forth by itself. I unplugged it and it still kept doing it.
Eventually it stopped.
My friend and I decided to sleep there that night and hopefully catch a glimpse of something. We also had his Irish setter with us. We made it through the whole night without seeing a thing. The dog on the other hand was howling,growling and whining the whole night. The rest of the week was uneventful.
Let me know when you are ready for another. Did I say somewhere that my lips were sealed?

Only those who have seen this stuff happin know for sure without any question its real. One night my wife and I were watching TV and beside it was a door to a bedroom. As I watched TV I noticed a "shadow" moving into the bedroom. I looked at my wife to ask if she had just seen it also and before I could ask . she asked me "did you see that"........It had no special shape but gave off a destortion in the air as it moved low to the floor like heat radiance, oh yea the property beside this house was once an old graveyard,

It was a mistake to read this thread. I was planning on going to bed; maybe stay up a bit longer now, or even leave a light on.

Girlfriend saw a headless man in bed one night I was passed out on couch. Bought the house off of my buddy and his mom had the same problems. Also saw my buddies back scratched in places he couldn't reach (I know what your thinking but he was young) after he woke up.

I believe in a spirit world in the Biblical sense. I do not believe in ghosts. I believe in the presence of demons and Angels and have many experiences with Demons in particular. I believe a Demon or Angel can and will present it's self in any form It chooses.
I am not going religious on ya here its JMHO.

When I was a kid,we moved into an old 3 story brick farmhouse with my grandma. I got lucky and got the only liveable room on the 3rd floor. At night I could hear footsteps in the attic,heard them the 1st night I slept in the room. The attic door would also swing ever so slightly as well,and a picture on the wall would sway a little.The house was old and drafty,so I tried to attribute those to the wind,but the footsteps were real,not just old house creeks and groans. I was 10 years old,trying to be a tough guy,so I didn't say anything about being scared out of my wits. Plus my mom wasn't very sympathetic towards that kind of thing. Well,after a week of getting less than an hour of sleep a night,I was pretty grumpy kid,falling asleep at the table for supper,in church,at school,everywhere that i had to sit down for more than 5 minutes at a time. Finally,Grandma pulled me over to the side and asked what was going on. I think she knew,she had lived there for 10 years before we moved in. So I told her what I had heard and seen. well,she just started chuckling,and I got upset cause she thought i was funny and not being serious. i asked her what what was so funny? she said"oh,that's just hector!!" I said"hector? you have another kid hiding in the attic that i don't know about?" she proceeced to explain to me the story she was told about the "ghost". back in the early 1900's a little boy was trapped in a box of some sort(not sure if he was put there or got there by accident somehow),and he died there. ever since then,the noises have been heard around the house. everyone seems to think it is his "spirit". I do lnow I got the last laugh. my brother's were both older than me,in their teens. they thought i was nuts. well, few months later,i got very sick. mom wanted me to sleep downstairs so I could be close to the bathroom and she could keep an eye on me. so me and my oldest brother switched rooms because his was on the 1st floor.Well,at breakfast the next morning,I noticed he had rings under his eyes and looked pretty tired. i kind of smugly asked"how did you sleep last night?" I got a dirty look and he said "GREAT!!" then my middle brother chimed in and said,"yeah,I bet you did after you came to my room amd slept on the floor!!" his room was on the second floor and he couldn't hear the noises. He finally pulled me to the side and told me he couldn't sleep in my room because of the noises,souned like footsteps in the attic and pictures and the attic door were moving I still won't let him live it down to this day. I got used to the noises after a couple of weeks,actually welcomed them. Do I believe in ghosts to this day? no,can't really say I do,but there was SOMETHING not normal going on in that old farmhouse!!

You ever think about why demonic talk creeps you out. But you can listen to Angelic stories all day and if nothing else it will usually lift your spirits.
Speaking of spirits, hay Mama weres me shot glass. I here Captain Morgan calling.

thefarelaneman, you seem to know about this stuff. I once had an out of body experience, laugh if you must, but I felt as though I was floating above my body and could not scream or move. I know this is not normal. This happened at my dads house where the previous owners dad passed away but not at the house. My stepmom has a friend that is supposed to be able to sense this and she said that he was still there. My grandmother told me that we used to have seers in the family, said it is a gift, as for me I would rather not have this gift!

out of body experience

I believe it can happin. Once I was having alot of stress and the doctor gave me a prescrition for a pill.Yes just one pill. I took it and went into a deep sleep for hours. As I began to wake up I experienced a feeling of being about 6 feet above my body and as I awoke more I felt a slow falling downwards till my out of body spirit united with my body.......I wasnt dreaming this , I was awake. Whatever people call it doesnt matter. Too many people have had out of body migration for it to be a joke.
