whats the deal with the p o o p?

I love saying the word poop...but seriously...I've been meaning to ask everyone's opinion on poop sightings. In a lot of the places...prolly most...I've been I've come across large piles of poop in the stairwells. The piles are usually on three consecutive stairs, but not just anywhere on the step...its always pushed to one side, and the same side on each of the steps. I don't know the poop habits of animals...human or otherwise...so curious if anyone else has an opinion. Raccoon was suggested, and I don't know anything about raccoon arse's but the poops seem a little large in my opinion to come from a raccoon.

So I was in this obscure building of a larger complex this weekend...and I would assume nobody has been in it in decades because it was dusty, lacking of footprints or signs of humans, a lot of the floors were rotted and unstable and there was no easy or obvious entrance in so I had to take the screws out of the front door and then slam my body into it to get it open...front door approach was a new experience for me So I clear the first floor and head up the stairs, and halfway up I notice the room to the right has a door halfway ajar and there is a single ceiling lightbulb...on! No other lights were on in the building or the one next to it that I had been in. So I wait on the stairs for a bit and listened, but heard nothing, so I went up. Go in the room...took a hard push to get the door open the rest of the way...and no sign of life in it. I go to all the other rooms, no signs of life. The electricity did work in one other room...another single ceiling lightbulb, but it wasn't on. So after clearing the top floor I go back to the room with the light on, and I see a closet that I hadn't opened. So I try to open it...won't open. If I had put more effort into it I could of pulled it open...but frankly it was freaking me out a little bit, so I left it closed. I leave and I don't think about it much til later in the day when I'm driving home, and my friend says to me after being quiet for awhile..."the thing is...who changed the lightbulb?" Yeah, good question. Any thoughts anyone? There was absolutely no signs of human life...coffee cups, empty food containers, an area where someone would sleep, old needles, beer cans or liquor bottles, poop, etc. Now I get totally creeped out thinking about trying to open that closet door.

You are prob. going to laugh or call me names...don't worry. I am used to it and have formed immunity to insults on this.

You had a paranormal encounter. Welcome to the world of spirits, mate. Let me ask you a few questions.

Did you get a strange feeling of a presence? (like someone was nearby?)

Notice how hard the door was for you to open? I bet you never heard it slam shut later, did you?

Did any areas seem [pysically] cold or chilly? Any damp areas anywhere?


The spirit is making a clear and non-violent message: "I'm still here, this is my room, and I don't want you in it".
As far as the poop...lol. Stray dogs?

The poop dynamics, the way you've described them, can only be one thing: Gollum.

A friend of mine lived in an apartment in NYC that had a back stairwell that was unlocked except the doors to the floors themselves. As you can imagine they were a popular place for the homeless to hang in, well lit and warm. The only time she used them is when the elevators were not working. The homeless would take a poop on the stairs. She told me that it is easy to take a poop on the stairs because they can hold on to the railing and the edge of the step as opposed to a freestyle squat. ????? Sounds like a good explanation to me but we did not continue the conversation after that. Not something I want to be an expert on.

A mirage is not an optical illusion. It is a real phenomenon, and one can take photographs of it. The interpretation of the image, however, is up to the fantasy of the human mind.

Is there any work being done at the complex? If work is being done on a different building, electricity may have been restored recently. As far as the closet door, I've been to plenty of places where a door that looks like it should open is just VERY stuck. A couple extra pulls probably would've done it.

well to fully understand poop, you have to ask why does the poop exist? when a living being consumes items for gestation it produces waste product, which is crudely called "poop". It then comes out of the anus and can have several shades of colors.

In other words, everything shits. when people or animals dont use toilets, they go on the ground. I am used to hobo shit, since its in almost any location you go in

I hate all of you

I figured it was homeless folk making educated decisions as to where to poop I'll stick with that scenario. It would make sense...I was comparing the size to my own poops...lol...but really, undernourishment would account for the smaller size and multiple "links" on the steps.

As for the lightbulb...I private'd a couple of y'all back. As for power being turned back on due to recent work...that almost makes sense...except the power would of been turned on for renovations to other buildings a long time ago, long enough for the lightbulb to expire...and this building is nowhere near the buildings that were re-used. Plus I looked back in my pics and saw that this mysterious closet door was open in one of the pics I took of the room.

I've heard raccoons usually crap in the same spot so there are usually large piles accumulated in stairwells

I only worry when it's smeared on the walls

I was in a stairwell in a asylum earlier this afternoon, and bird shit and raccoons everywhere. I just went back down and took an other stairwell

Sounds like you should go back and open that closet door....Perhaps you'll find that nothing is even there. At least you'll feel a little bit of closure.

He first opened the door to the room, which had some resistance. And noticed with his naked eye the closet was closed. Coming back down the stairs, the room door was closed. And on his camera film later, the same picture he took of the closet showed it open. Now, if the door had been difficult to open to the room, he would have heard the door slam, or drag on the floor if someone or something shut it. Uless: it was a spirit pushing on the otherside of the door prehaps, or just able to close it again silently? Just a suggestion. And, why would only one light be on, with an old bulb that couldn't hold a spark anymore? Sounds haunted to me.

No wait...let me get the story straight. The door to the actual lightbulb room was halfway open when I moved up the stairs. I stopped and listened for a bit before going to the top of the stairs and approaching the room. I went to open the door the rest of the way...and I did have to exert more effort to open it the rest of the way...enough to make me think...gee that took more effort than it should. I went into the lightbulb room and saw nobody in it, relieved, I then left and started taking photo's in the first room off the stairs.

I always go through rooms from closest to entering the building or floor to the furthest room from me...unless I feel I need to check out a room cause I think someone is in it.

So the room closest to the stairs had xmas ornaments and shit in it. So from the xmas ornament room I took a photo of the lightbulb room from across the hall. In this first photo, the closet door in the lightbulb room is closed. After taking this picture...I then checked out the bathroom between the ornament room and the lightbulb room, and then re-entered the lightbulb room for further inspection. While in the lightbulb room I took another picture, and in this picture the closet door was open, and also the hinges were on the lefthand side. I then left the room and explored the remaining two rooms. But before going back down the stairs to leave the house I went back into the lightbulb room and noticed the closet that I had overlooked before. The hinges on the door at this time were on the right-hand side, not the left hand side that is shown in the photo. I attempted to open this closet...and even though it wasn't fully shut "as in the door and the frame being aligned"...but instead the door was about a half inch from fully being shut...the door did not open with regular door-opening effort. I got a little freaked out and decided that I didn't want to force it open because the lightbulb thing just disturbed me. So I left the house...being only disturbed by the lightbulb being on...but then noticed the differing positions of the closet last night when I looked over the pictures again.

So thats the full story. I do believe in ghosts, though I'm not the type to believe in ghosts without covering all the bases of other possibilities...and after chatting with mongoose, my partner in exploring, and looking at the photo's...I'm sold.

Wow, man. That is strange, however I have heard of similar stories. I would love to go see this place! If it's not too far away, I could take my two days off and see this for myself as well. We could take some more photos, and I could get some readings. It should not take me long to verify the type of spirit this is. There are many types of ghosts. Angry ones (poltergheits), evil and violent ones, game players who just do this kind of thing; messing with your head, and the depressed ones who just want to get their story known/and listened to. Then you have ones that don't even know they are dead. At any rate, I will have to check this place out...sounds interesting and a definate, guinuine haunting. PM me again when you can. I will in the meantime.
