| | | The house my mother lives in is considered haunted by the family. The house has been owned by someone in my family since the time it was built, around 80 or 90 years ago. Many people died in the house, family members mostly, and as recently as 1996. My great grandfather was also a doctor, but I have no idea if anyone unrelated died in the house while under his care. We have heard voices, had doors close and open, and in '96 when my great grandmother was on her deathbed, we had quite a few sitings of a group of men dressed all in black walking in through our front door...My grandmother believed that they were men from the family, although my Great grandma saw one man she didn't recognize and asked that he leave the house. My mother has lived in a few houses she thought were haunted, being a military brat, she moved to 7 or 8 different homes. The ones I remember her talking about being haunted include our house in Maryland, and one she lived in in Virginia. Our house in Maryland had been partially burned in the past (which I think was related to the "hauntings"), and there were also some Ouija board related incidents there. The house in Virgina had a dirt basement, and there were rumors (they later found out) that the man who previously lived there killed locals and buried them in the basement...

there are number of hypothesis (ie. quantum "many worlds" theory) that postulate that there could be any number of simultaniously existing worlds, seperated by forces as elemental is molecular vibration differentials. i tend to lean towards the idea that a haunting is rooted in a point, event or individual that has somehow created a lynchpin between the two realities, a common point in which interaction is possible, to some limited degree.
| That's basically my theory about supernatural events. I don't necessarily think ghosts are unrelated to dead humans because numerous hauntings related to the deceased have been recorded, but I don't think a ghost can only be that. I believe that the universe is a series of waves in which our universe, and any other universes, are at the bottom (trough for all you technical people) of the waves, and to get out, we need to travel at the speed of light. I also believe that all these tiny wormholes & blackholes physicists keep finding act as gateways between the universes. I know that it's a bit far fetched, but there's no evidence that says otherwise. I guess that's what staying up all night and contemplating our existence will do to you, lol.

| | | When I was still a little fetus at this time, but my parents lived in this house with my little sister who was about 3 or 4 at the time. My dad worked nights, leaving my mom and sister at home alone. They only lived in this house for about 2-3 months before leaving. Most nights, my mother would sit at the top of the stairs outside my sisters bedroom with a pot of coffee, listening to voices and music coming from the livingroom. Everytime she got enought nerve to go check it out, she'd flick on the lights and the noises would stop. As soon as she'd turn off the light and go back upstairs, they would start again. The entire time they lived in the house, my sister was constantly sick, with fevers all the time. My mother once walked into her bedroom because she heard noises and the bed was violently shaking with my sister on it, sick with a fever over a 100 deg. F. That's all she's ever told me about it, pretty Fucked up though. Glad I was only in the belly and not alive......

| | | Posted by Plytheman We're teh first family to live in my house, so I dont know why it would be haunted, but we have heard things like cabinates bang downstairs. Sometimes it sounds like chairs moving. My mom said that one night she woke up and saw a ghost just standing there in her room... Not to sound like a superstitios nut, but we never heard any of these noises or anything until we used the Ouija board which was an interesting experience in itself, which I can post about later if you like.
| A couple of reasons for your house to be haunted. 1) Someone may have died in the house during or very shortly after its construction. 2) A friend of mine told me that the structure itself does not necessarily have to be involved in hauntings. The ground itself where the death occurred would be considered hallowed ground and the energy just passes on to the next structure that gets built on it. Considering what happened to me while working at the WPH and other staff members, I wouldn't be surprised if I hear about the new houses being haunted before their time. Final note, please be very careful with the Ouija board. Better yet, don't screw with it! The same friend refuses to be anywhere near those as he claims they're too damned dangerous. You just don't know what you're dealing with and it can cause you a lifetime of considerable grief! I will have nothing to do with them myself as I was near one once before and got very bad vibes from it. I know this sounds nuts but I feel very strongly about this!

| If you know what you're doing these are fine. They're just a tool to divine, just like a pendulum, divining rods, etc. If you do it in a group, with the proper protection, and you know what you're doing, have some experience, then you generally won't have any issues. I've used Ouija boards many times, and never once have I had an issue.

| OH you're all bloody nuts. That's just what you get for poking around in abandoned mental hospitals and such. pfft. Now seriously, how do you "devine" things from an Ouija board? How do you "misuse" one? We bought my cousin one for her birthday, and it currently lives under her bed with two tons of other crap that she doesn't use. How do you use these then? As for ghosts, they probably exist, much else, I do not know. Edit, spelling chex.

| | | A few more musings on hauntings and such. My theory is that some ghosts are like wasps, leave them alone, and they'll leave you along. I don't know much about ghosts. I'm not sure whether to beleive what I hear. I won't go looking for them. Why do ghosts haunt homes, properties, etc? If they haunt your house, they might be pissed about your lifestyle, living habits: "DEAR GOD! They tore up that lovely shag carpeting and threw out the pimento green fridge! I'll rattle a few cabinets to get them out. " There may have been some kind of death on the property. If the death was especially nasty, or out of the norm, the ghost may just want you to show some respect for the dead. I personally subscribe to the theory of friendly ghosts. If the same family has lived in a house for many generations, your great grandparents might want to stop in and say hello. Likewise, dead family members may be a little irritated if the home is sold out of the family, hence hauntings occur. And so, I pose a few questions to the beleivers out there. Why do ghosts haunt homes, properties, etc? What does a ghost have to gain from banging your cabinets and screwing with your electronics, etc? Can a ghost hurt you? Are there ways to rid your home of unwanted ghosts and spirits? What are some circumstances which cause hauntings?
Any answers out there?

| | | Posted by Reb00t And so, I pose a few questions to the beleivers out there. Why do ghosts haunt homes, properties, etc?
|
Many reasons. Nasty death, unfinished business, died before their time, did not want to die, needs some kind of help or simply lost their way to the next world. Posted by Reb00t What does a ghost have to gain from banging your cabinets and screwing with your electronics, etc?
| Simply put, to get your attention. This probably is the only way that ghost would know how to do it. Posted by Reb00t Can a ghost hurt you?
|
Usually not but if the ghost is a particularly malevolent spirit, you can experience much grief! Posted by Reb00t Are there ways to rid your home of unwanted ghosts and spirits?
|
The only way I know would be to call a priest. Although, try talking to them. Maybe that's all the ghost wants, someone to acknowledge that s/he was once a living person before s/he moves on to the next world. Posted by Reb00t What are some circumstances which cause hauntings?
|
As mentioned above, untimely or violent death or maybe the ghost was someone who felt it is their duty to protect the property or whomever may be upon the property. (ie a parent, nurse, guard etc) Posted by Reb00t Any answers out there?
| I don't know everything about this but these are answers that I believe to be true. I hope this is some help to you Reb00t.
