Thread: Ghosties and ghoulies and things that go bump in the night.....

Right - hands up everyone who's seen a ghost?

I have - in broad daylight - it purely scared the bejasus out of me!

I was viewing a friend's new house with her and her daughter when we went upstairs to look at the bedrooms. I went into one and she and her daughter went into the other. I came out of the room I had been in and quite clearly saw the back of a woman's body turning the corner at the bottom of the stairs - it looked as if she was carrying a sleeping child.

I called out for my friend, hanging over the bannisters and nearly jumped through the roof when she came out of a bedroom behind me!

I had to go and have a sweet hot cuppa tea and a fag after that, I can tell you!

I also had some weird things happen when I was still living in my old house with my ex-husband. Things would go missing then reappear in the craziest of places - like we once found the remote control for the telly behind two sets of closed curtains, on the windowsill, balanced upright!!!


How about anyone else??

I am also a believer in ghosties and ghoulies. In fact I have always attracted them since I was a small child. They always pop in from time to time, I don't tend to worry about it these days but when I was a teenager I used to be terrified. I used to have one that would stand behind me when I was putting my makeup on. It really used to freak me out when I could see it in the mirror lol.
My daughter used to have an old man in a nightshirt sit on the end of her bed and tell her stories, she just used to think he was part of the family! Although she hasn't seen him now for years!
I think it's pretty cool now to be able to see them or smell them, I know they won't harm me and they are just popping in for a visit!
In fact sometimes I can smell my great gran, she always smelt of african violets and every now and then I get a little whiff of it and I know she is just popping in to see me!

Wow, Tracey - you're really attuned to the spirit world, aren't you!

I cannot imagine what I would do if someone was behind me in the mirror while I was putting on my make-up! What did it look like?

(Knowing me, it would say - oh my frickin gawd - that lipstick SO doesn't suit you! lol)

love

Well the figure in the mirror was always just over my left shoulder, whenever I turned around he would disapear! I used to think I was going crazy! My Dad also said that when I was asleep as a teenager, he could hear a man talking in my bedroom, but when he looked in, it was me talking with someone elses voice! How freaky is that!!! I still don't know to this day whether he was winding me up or not!
The most annoying spirit used to live in my old house. Whenever I went into my daughters bedroom I used to feel a slight push in my lower back. It was if they didn't like me going in there. It wasn't violent, but felt like a slight shove or tap on my lower back!
I don't think I'm particually in tune with the spirit world and I'm certainly don't have any clairvoyant talent. I'm just fortunate to be able to sence when spirits are around. My paternal grandmother was clairvoyant, but unfortunatley the talent missed me! LOL.

LOL Tracery - they do say that we are all clairvoyant but most of us don't want to develop our talents or something lol. Sounds to me like you've got more than enough for both of us!!! WOW!

If someone/thing pushed me in the back, I'd freak!!! Though, I suppose you get used to it, don't you?

My grandfather comes to me all the time. He died 6 years ago and he's only a breath away. My best friend died of breast cancer 2 years ago and I can still hear her voice as clear as day. She is always with me. Have you read 'The Lovely Bones'? It is a moving story of a girl who is murdered and how she watches her family. It sounds morbid but I believe it is one of the most uplifting books I have ever read about heaven. ( Book by Alice Sebold by the way)

Ooh no, I haven't but I'll deffo look out for it - might have a look now on Amazon! Thanks for that!

Hi Guys,

Just finally got around to reading this particular thread as I knew it would interest me and take time to read and enjoy

Has anyone read any of Rita Rogers books? She's a medium and I read some of her books a few years ago now. I picked up one in particular in our library and I knew it was going to be emotional as it was about her sessions with parents' whose children had died .

I think that book will stay with me for ever as some of the stories were so touching, that the word "touching" seems inadequate to describe it. There was happiness and tears and comfort and closure for some parents.

I know lots of us will feel differently about this subject as it is emotive, especially where children are concerned. I read it and i'm glad I did.

I Love this stuff, but will save my tales for another day! Don't have a lot of time to post them right now!

Looking forward to hearing them Angela.....xxx

The house I grew up in always had things being moved and we nicked name the ghost Frederick...the people who own it now feels my fathers presence in his workshop and can smell his cigarettes.

I feel my father around me, but don't smell anything, I think he knows how hard I found it to stop and probably knows it could trigger me off again. LOL!

My mother was a great one for the ghost stories and many a night we went to bed scared sh!tless

Love a good story!
