The Paranormal

[Scuba]

I am facinated by paranormal everything. Last year, about this time, I went with a Massachusettes group to an old victorian mansion in my then little town of Gardner. This is the same house that was featured on Ghost Hunters in season three. We had a great time, it was colder than hell and in some rooms the pellet stoves were running making EVP work impossible. But we did have luck using flashlights in both the basement and the 3rd floor master bedroom.

I now live in the PNW and would love to find a group locally. There has to be some pretty good haunted places out here...

Heading to Iron Island again this coming Friday, anyone else? If you haven't seen the Ghost Hunters episode from the place, it's compelling to say in the least. I have been to MANY places and I can say with complete confidence that you WILL come away from here with evidence, every time.

Shoot, too bad you don't live here, you could join us! It's a blast!

I enjoy the posts here. Thank you to everyone who has posted their experiences.

I have been doing house clearings for a number of years. I really enjoy the work. I would like to know if anyone else does clearings?

Sometimes I experience nausea and the sensation of extreme vertigo. Do others ever experience this? I admit that sometimes I am complacent when I do the work, and don't always take all the precautions. That being said it has only been recently I have experienced these sensations.

Thanks....

I've been doing this for more than 25 years and never had those feelings. I also don't hesitate to invite "people" to come home with me, as long as they don't wake me up in the middle of the night. Never had a problem.

I just might pee my pants if I went into a creepy house, let alone haunted! lol.. props to you all!!!

Oh c'mon, it's not as scary as Hollywood would have you believe. I take comfort in being in place where people have died, because I feel like if they are indeed still there, they would appreciate the company.

I recently co-ran an investigation with our Organization OCGAL "Orange County Ghosts and Legends." We investigated the Star of India in San Diego.

I'll need to come back at another time to explain in detail, but man....that was an awesome ship and TONS of activity!!

First off, what an interesting thread.

Next, I have had houses cleared before, although I haven't done it myself. The last place I lived that had issues I took care of it myself. The former owner had passed away in the house from emphysema. I'd wake up in the middle of the night feeling like an elephant was sitting on my chest. The house would also not let me take an afternoon nap. Come to find out the gentleman who had passed in the house took great pride in the gardens that I wasn't tending to. I did the research found out who he was and started talking to him. His name was Lou. I'd say "Lou, I'm beat, I just need a nap and I'll go take care of the garden." No more slamming doors during my nap. I did have to take care of the gardens but it worked.

I'm a Realtor so I am in and out of homes all day every day. I have a listing right now that was built in 1987. I would have thought this house would be clear, but it's a mess. There have been three owners, all three have ended in divorce. I picked up orbs in the master bedroom during the photo shoot. The interesting thing is that I've held this home open three or four times and I never go upstairs or in the master unless I have to. I'd like to get that house cleared so that maybe the current divorce could move forward and I could get the thing sold. And myself paid.

I am FASCINATED by all things paranormal! I have lived in 2 houses that have been active, my favorite aunt visited me after her passing, and my family on my moms side has a ghost that visits when someone is going to pass.

My church is also a "Spiritualist Church", so we talk about this stuff all the time!!!

I absolutely emmerse myself in this!!!

We have an Aunt who is on her end game right now. I haven't seen her in about 10 years but I talk to her pretty frequently. She came to me about two weeks ago. I am shocked that she's still with us. My best friend came to me the night he died. He sat on the end of my bed and told me that he loved me. Moments later the phone rang and his partner told me he was gone.

You would have the opportunity to see lots of different things as a realtor. I remember when looking for my last house my realtor and I went through this *house*. I felt eebiieees as soon as I walked in. What I didn't notice until both of us were back outside, we were whispering. It was odd on my scale, and I have a pretty high quotient for odd.

I like the story of your house and how you have negotiated with Lou. I like it alot actually. It brought a smile to my face.

It would be helpful to the present owners of the home you are describing to have someone come in and clear. Everyone works differently. I do more depossession work on a house. I work very gently with spirits and do my work with an open heart full of compassion. It is not a fight, although I have had very sticky and pretty nasty situations. But not every human is kind, and that also applies to hauntings. I open portals and usher the stuck ones through. Or close portals to ensure the space stays clear. I would truly truly hope if I am stuck on this plane that someone has enough compassion to help me and send me home...and close the door so I don't accidently come back.
