Any Of You Ever lived In A Haunted House?

Date sort Score sort
whoa...The Giving Tree. Sal Silversteen? I may have messed up the name spelling.
It is a reather dyslexic day today.
I love trees. We had a scrawny dog wood in the front yard. It didn't grow until we built a "tree house" around it. I do not believe in putting nails into trees, so we built a table around it, then stairs, and three levels, and a slide and ...EVERYTHING! we celebrate holidays in the tree house, like the lantern festiva,l or the moon festival, or cinco de mayo...any reason for a picnic in the tree house. It has grown to be one of the largest dog wood trees we have ever seen. Maybe it was all of the little boy pee. But I think it just is getting happy vibes. Good energy.

Come on! more stories!!!
 
Yes, I think it was the Giving Tree. Shel Silverstein.
But also, one of the So You Want To Be A Wizard books has a girl who talks to her childhood tree. I didn't read that until this year.
Oh...just a few minutes ago I went to check on my Orpington breeding pair that I had let out for a while to play, and I noticed that it was raining. I didn't want them to get wet, and I rushed out to close them in, and it was already closed..........
 
ok, I have 1 more. when I was young, I had a relative, (cousin, I think) they lived in Ohio, but I also remember them living not very far away in indiana too. so I am not certain of the location of the house in question. But she told me of a house she lived in when her kids were babies. there was an old grandmother type ghost that they shared their house with. she wasn't scary or anything, she seemed to attatch herself to the babies. she would rock an empty chair in the nursery, or make the mobile over the crib move. the babies would sometimes act as if they could see something, that their parents could not.
My cousin said the most memorable event was when she was in the kitchen, and the baby was napping in his crib, in the room above the kitchen. and she distinctly heard his glass bottle hit the floor and roll to the other side of the room. thinking he was awake she went up to get him, and found him still sleeping with the bottle laying in the bed next to him.
she said she wasn't freaked out or anything, she just said " thanks grandma" and went back down stairs

There are many spirits that look after horses. Is this family from Europe? That is where they are most common, especially in Ireland and wherever Gaelic was spoken.
There are also spirits that play pranks regarding animals, like letting them out to pasture, or tangling their manes, or running the sheep. One is supposed to manifest itself as a scrawny piglet with red eyes.

I know they aren't but it is an older house and had several previous owners.

No self respecting ghost would live in my home, it's a crappy 1965 doublewide.

And if some redneck ghost did feel at home here, we'd never notice. Cold spots? That's just the bad windows and lack of insulation. Lights flickering? Cheap aluminum wiring. Creaking? that's the dog stepping on that soft spot in the floor. Objects moving by themselves? Things get moved around here all the time. I'd just be grateful if a ghost moved them back where they belong!

Lol, sure there's got to be a logical explanation right. I tell myself that too. :oops:
