HORROR IN THE HAUNTED HOUSE

Following on from the winter investigation in my spiritually active home, it has recently started to get busy again with activity.
One morning whilst working in the kitchen I casually looked out of the window and saw in the blink of an eye, a lady wearing late forties/early 1950`s clothing carrying a basket with what appeared to be freshly washed clothes for drying in the garden.
She suddenly appeared before me, and walking across in front of the kitchen and within a blink of the eye she suddenly faded away.
This I felt was residual energy, and not the appearance of a sentient spirit.

A couple of weeks later, I enter the kitchen late at night to get a drink, and in the darkness I saw a dark grey mist sweep in front of me in the kitchen before disappearing into a wall.
This type of manifestation is irregular but happens.

Following on from this, recently I was lying in my bed late at night just dozing off to sleep when I heard two very loud raps on a door below me. I was relieved after investigating to discover there were no other living people in the house.

My home I discovered, is partially built over the foundations of a much earlier house that originally stood in an open field. I believe parts of the house that overshadow the original home act as a portal through which much activity has been captured.

Other previous manifestations have been the appearance of a crescent shaped `orb` energy which is much documented on video - see EVIDENCE OF SPIRITUAL ACTIVITY
These appear in the first part of a compilation of activity captured in my own home.
This manifestation is that of a little girl called, `Ellie` who occasionally visits the house in spirit.

Apart from these events, there is regular activity from a tortoiseshell cat who sometimes appears on video with the sound of purring. An example was captured on my last house investigation here:
RETURN TO HAUNTED HOUSE
 The reason I know the cat to be tortoiseshell was on one occasion when I went to the top landing and saw both my own cats both sat down and staring at another cat which turned and ran into a bedroom. Only difference being was that the door was firmly closed and seeing a solid mass pass through a solid mass was quite a mind-bending event!

And so the hauntings here continue, with Sunday mornings being the most active period during any one week.

Here is my latest video which showed an event never captured before, and one which left me visibly shaken..



And some photographs captured in that room:

INVESTIGATION OF HISTORIC HARRISBURG HAUNTED HOUSE

A local paranormal team claims it found evidence of ghosts inside of a historic Harrisburg home and they showed that evidence only to CBS 21 News.

This is the first time that a paranormal group did an investigation at the historic John Harris Mansion on Front Street. Members with S.P.I.R.I.T. Paranormal out of Reading say they can prove it's haunted. Their special devices detected high readings as soon as they came in Saturday night.

" I had walked into the office from across the parlor, where the mirrors are, and every picture I took was blurry. I could not get one picture to focus in that room," Lora Shirey, senior investigator, S.P.I.R.I.T. Paranormal. http://www.spiritparanormal.net/

A closer look showed who the ghost may be, the daughter of a former home owner.

" If you come here and look at the picture, of Margarita, you have the same forehead, hairline and dark eyes," said Lora." This picture was captured here. She was in motion."

Lora then took us upstairs, to the former servant quarters, where previously she met Luisa.

" Luisa, are you here ? Can you tap on something, make a loud noise?" asked Lora.

The former servant ghost didn't respond then. But earlier, she did let them know she was there.

" We heard loud noise, bang, when I asked if it was Luisa right over here, in this area," said Lora.

But that's not all Lora heard.

" As we were leaving that room, we actually captured a woman's voice saying, don't go," said Lora.

HAUNTED UNION HOTEL, DE PERE, WISCONSIN

DE PERE - The search is on for truth behind some ghost stories at an area hotel.
The owners the Union Hotel in De Pere are hoping to finally find some answers through a group of paranormal investigators.
Despite bringing in some help, others remain skeptical.
From mysterious shadows in the basement, to unexplained voices in the bar, Mary Boyd, part owner of the century old Union Hotel and restaurant in De Pere has lots of unusual stories to tell her guests.
"My sister one time was sitting in the bar when we were closed for a week in July, which we normally do and she heard somebody singing in the corner of the bar, where there isn't a speaker," explained Boyd.
The building was originally built in the late 1800's. The Boyd family has owned this restaurant and hotel for the past 93 years.

The family says some ghost stories have been past down from generation to generation.
But with every believer out there, there's a skeptic, and that includes a member of the Boyd family.
"I have more of a scientific approach to it, whether it is a noise or something like that," said part owner, McKim Boyd. “I feel there's a logical explanation for it."
But a Green Bay area group, called the All Night, Paranormal Research Team, is hoping to find some answers.






This is the group's very first investigation, looking to prove or disprove the stories.

"You can always interpret things, you can always interpret sounds as wind or rusty pipes, something of that nature," explained member, Stephan Hrubesky. "We just want to make sure it is what it is."

The group contacted the four room hotel last week. During the night, the men will use cameras and audio recorders to try to back up some of the claims.

They'll focus their investigation primarily in the basement or what the owners call, Ghost Alley.
"A lot of times you'll think somebody is standing there and you'll start talking to somebody and you'll turn to look and nobody's there so it's a little strange," Mary Boyd said.
"Not having experienced anything first hand, it's a little hard to believe," McKim Boyd explained.
But whether there's a logical explanation or not, both owners hope answers can be found, so they can finally lay to rest a question that's been looming for more than a century, is the place truly haunted?
The investigators hope to have their research finished within the next day or two.

MURDERER CLAIMS SHE WAS HAUNTED FROM THE GRAVE

She claims to have murdered her husband in 2004. On Sunday, the 37-year-old woman from Cuddalore, Tamil Nadu surrendered before the police as was spooked by her “husband’s ghost”.

The woman, Jyothi, told the police that her husband, Raju, appeared in her dreams to “haunt” her. She, and    a relative who help her bury the body, are now in police custody.

Jyothi told the police that her husband, who did odd jobs for a living, was an alcoholic. This led to frequent fights between them. Fed up of the daily torture, Jyothi said she crushed Raju’s head with a grinding stone while he was asleep. At the time, Raju was in a drunken stupor. She and a relative, S Devendhiran (45), buried the body on a vacant plot near her house.

In 2009, a farmer who dug up the site to set up a poultry farm came across the mortal remains – skull and bones – after which a police probe began, but remained inconclusive.

Jyothi has told the police that her husband has been haunting her since a few years. She claimed that this was the reason she shifted home with her two sons, but the unnatural pursuit continued at the new home.

“That’s when she decided to turn herself in to the police along with her accomplice,” said a police source.

PLAYFUL POLTERGEIST HAUNTS SCOTTISH CAFE

A SWEET-TOOTHED ghost has whipped up a storm in a teacup at a village cafe.
The friendly "Casper" likes to move sweet jars and other goodies around the tearoom in the night.
But the playful poltergeist sometimes makes an appearance during the day.
Laura McKirdy and her mum Fiona believe they are being haunted by an old lady dubbed Nanny Goony by folk in Cardross, Dunbartonshire.

Laura said: "I had just locked the door one evening when a jar of lollipops went crashing to the floor.
"I thought I'd just pick them all up in the morning but, when I came back, they were back in the jar and stood upright. Other spooky happenings include sweets moving on their own, pictures falling off the wall and crumbs appearing on newly wiped tables.
Fiona said: "One time we heard the sound of legs moving under a table, but there was nobody there."
The cafe owners called in the Scottish Society for Psychical Research to investigate.
Paranormal expert Ron Halliday described the goings-on as typical poltergeist activity.
He said: "It could be that it is a trapped soul who is trying to send a message to the owners themselves."
Laura added:"She doesn't seem to mean any harm. She's a very friendly ghost - I wouldn't stay here if she wasn't."
