()relics :

being a curious skeptic, I have read most of the posts in his thread, trying to make a connection...the only thing I've got is you mention your SO several times, and his family...Is it possible that you + He/She = something not good.....Maybe have he/she stay in a hotel or with friends/family for awhile and see if things change...And get a dog or 2 for the house....can't hurt everyone likes dogs and they bring positive energy when ever they are around....Just saying

Im confused...
You think we are creating a energy that is opening my sons bedroom door?

We have 3 dogs

When he has left for overnight I get more scared

I dont blame you for being a bit scared.
I have lived in a supposedly "haunted" house for 12 years and thought nothing else could phase me, got used to it.
However. Two inexplicable things have happened to me the past two weeks.
First one. I packed my daughters portable DVD player to take to my parents. I put it in the bag. I SAW it in the bag before putting it into the trunk of the car. That night my daughter put the DVD player on her at my parents. I saw it on her bed. Her brother saw it on the bed. When she came back from being out, it was gone. We tore the place up looking for it. No DVD player.
We gave up, then when we came home it was sitting on the coffee table in the living room, like a gift for us.....I can NOT explain that one.
The second thing. I woke up one morning with a two inch cut(it was deep but almost looked as if it had been cauterized???) on the inside of my thigh and what looked like a bite mark just above that. WTH???? Perplexing.
I dont know what is causing that door of yours to open but I wouldnt discount things.
Energy? Maybe...

I have woken up with cuts and once a bruise! I think the bruise was from my thrashing sister that I share a bed with though.

Speaking of paintings, I have ALWAYS HATED Van Gogh's paintings....something unsettling about his paintings and everything associated with him.

Have always loved Van Goghs paintings myself, they show such intense emotion for paintings. In my opinion that is. Michelangelos paintings however....some of them are down right disturbing. The large painting on the wall(not the ceiling) at the sistine chapel showing the rapture and all of the lost souls being devoured and dragged to hell by demons is quite unsettling. Dont get me wrong, I love the art he created, it is unparalled but that painting is just spooky. The Last Judgement is the painting

Brrr. I remember reading about a painting that had two creepy looking little kids in it. Supposedly even people that had just a copy of that particular painting experienced activity.

OK, I finally rad through this thread and find it really neat. We live in a house that was built in the 1890's. The man that originally built it was the towns only doctor. I cannot find whether he died here or moved, or if he had any patients that might have died here. We have lived here for 9 years and have completely redone the inside of the house. I have stuff hanging on the walls in the hall, but ever since we have had our child we have hung her pictures in there and ever since then, those pictures are moved EVERY morning. It drives me nuts that nothing else on the walls in moved but her baby pictures. WE also have two doors in this house that open themselves at night and freak me out. It's the two doors to rooms that were added onto the house after indoor plumbing became available. I've never really felt scared in this house, just maybe that there was something besides me in a room at times.

Again, this ties into what I said previously about how art work can become infused with the energy of the artist as well as the energy of the people that own the art. In this case, Van Gogh's works probably bother you due to the fact that he was bi-polar and emitted a great deal of energy when he painted. He literally put his blood, sweat, and tears into his work, and being that he was a very intense person, he left a lot of that imprinted on his work. I am not a fan of Van Gogh, I find his work to be a bit too intense for me, and I can feel the different emotions that he felt when he was creating his paintings. I also am disturbed by Edvard Munch's painting "The Scream". It's a disturbing painting, to say the least.

I think Auguste Rodin's works bother me the most though. They are so incredibly dark and I get the most awful vibes off them, even just looking at them in a book, or online. Quite disturbing. I believe that in the movie The Haunting (The remake, not the original), that freaky door in the great room that ended up collecting Eleanor's soul at the end was based on Rodin's work "Gates of Hell". I did not like it in the movie either. It was quite disturbing as well.

I do like DaVinci though, and there is A LOT of energy attached to his works of art, and Michaelangelo's works are interesting, though I don't sense the same intensity in them that I do in the works of other artists. Personally, my favorite artist is a modern artist is a woman by the name of Sandra Kuck. I have several reprints of her paintings, and most are signed by her. She is amazingly talented, and you can feel the love emanating from her work.

Oh, I don't care for Salvador Dahli's work either. Too strange, and the energy attached to his works is strange, to say the least.

Personally, I love Terry Redlin as an artist, his works are so peaceful.....I wouldnt be worried to hang any of those up in a house!

Since we are talking artwork...just something I remembered from past..we lived in an old farmhouse, freaky vibes etc. I used to be terrified of the staircase when I was small(6 or 7) when my great aunt and uncle had lived there, anyway, when we moved in I was in my early teens, and I remember we cleaned everything. A couple years into it, after many hair raising occurences, the under the stairs closet got this really bad permeating smell. We took the stairs apart and cleaned them, and the smell remained, like a dead carcass was being sotred under there. When we had first moved in though, we found an old charcoal sketch of a mean looking lady in 20's attire, authentic art, and nobody knew who this lady was. I still remember how just touching that charcoal portrait gave me a bad bad feeling...like gloom and cold completely encompassing you until you can't breathe. That house burned to the ground a month after family(us) moved out. It had been in our family for years. It had been a hospital during the war, and a church held services in the breezeway, there were several funerals held in the parlor(my parents bedroom) during my childhood. My great aunt and uncles wakes were there, as was my 2nd cousins, and all were buried at the graveyard next door that you could see the Jesus statue in the center of out the upstairs bedroom window. Oh, the stories I could tell about that place...but my hair is already standing on end just thinking about the old house. Even the tree in the front yard was spooky, when I parked my car out there under it on numerous occassions, I cut the car off, took the keys out, and then....waited for the motor to stop running....
