I was standing in the kitchen washing dishes one night and saw the reflected shadow of a man in a hat walk into the room and down the stairs towards the den - the same area the dog freaked out about a couple of times. When I turned I saw him for a split second before he vanished.

I know it must of been quite disconcerting at the time, but all I can say is COOL!! LOL A full apparition is the holy grail of paranormal investigators!

I know most of you here have had some kind of experience with the other worldly events, but if you just bought a house with every last penny you saved, and 6 mos later you find out its haunted, what would you do?

First of all I would make sure it isn't just impressions.
Second I would make sure I wasn't doing things to allow or create the happenings within it..which is easily done for some.
Third I would do a cleansing...If that is not helpful then,
Forth, I would call in a qualified group to cleanse and purge it of its contents,

There have been some houses that due to what has happened or where they are built..they hold much...in the event that all does not work..but usually it does....I would leave.

But you sunk your whole life savings into this and you have no means to leave.
The reason I ask this is because I am helping someone now who is at their wits end. She's very frightened. Has done all she can to try and cleanse the house, but it only proved to increase the activity. She has gone to a hotel with her dogs to get sleep on occasion.
I'm just curious as to what everyone else would do in the same situation.
Thank you for your response Lady Pamela!

The first thing I will tell you is fear allows things to manifest. When fear is present you actually open doors to create things without even realizing your doing it.

She needs to work on not allowing her fears to override her thoughts and emotions.
She can not rid something if she is always trying to fight it and fear it.

She needs to be stern but not provoke things..this is not only dangerious at times but it also keeps such things active.

She needs to simply believe that she is cleansing..her dought negates the cleaning process...understand?

Well she only has a couple options..one to put the house on the market or the other to stay and work it out.

I personally would stay and never allow anything to force me away. I would seek outter help as well as put myself into check...but some ppl are not able to do so.

6 months later? Makes me wonder if her haunting came with the property or moved in after she did.

You also could have a spirit attached to you.

When I bought this house I must have looked at at least a dozen places,the real estate ppl must have thought I was nuts.I really wanted this old victorian house that had been empty for years..it had been tied up with family issues of some wanting to sell and some not.I finaly got to take a look at it,it was a beutiful place but in some rooms and a couple of places in the yard gave me a real bad case of the sweats and nausea so I passed on it ans several places for on reasoin or the other.This place was blank,nothing was in it..nor feelings,sounds, smells, zip nothing...clean as can be.So we did the deal with the bank then got the keys.While we were moveing in my son ask about all the pennys laying around on the floors,in the cabnets,in the washer and dryer ect.I said I had no idea..so he picked them up.Well by now we have just stoped picking them up cause they just keep poping back up one ot two hear and theire..then one night I was in the den on the puter and the door to the hall was wide open then slowly started closeing then stoped part way,I figure the door was out of balalnce so I put a level on it and it was true as can be.I have stood by the door with a candle to see if the ac or a draft could cause this..no way.One day it stsrted to close and I simply ask ....please dont do that...Id like it open.By now it dosent happen much anymore,but my fur kids sometimes look around the room like they see something but arent upset about it.What ever it is or came from I have no clue..or even if it is anything but my over active imaganation.

My home (the community) is built on top of a landfill. Prior to that it was a farmer's cattle yard. I am not sure of what was where years ago (slaughter house, main house, etc.). When photographs are taken by certain people you can see orbs, demonic figures in the background, and other strange things. In certain homes the owners will abandon their home never to return. Some people think the homes are haunted, or something is wrong structurally. In my neighborhood on one side of the street every home is filled with children, and none on the opposite side.

When my home was being built, I did certain things that the construction workers thought was odd, but I didn't. For example, I had it blessed, I use Holy Water all the time all over the yard, garden, and inside and outside. I buried a St. Joseph sideways because of my strong dislike of one neighbor who was abusing her children. She was caught by the law, and her children are now safe. Every year I write the House Blessing over my front door during Ephanie (sp??). It is amazing to me to see how evil passes over my home, and continues on down the line of homes. That is why I always tell people I don't wish evil on anyone but I also don't wish them well. I believe in Karma. I would rather be on the side of Karma than not.

I also believe in rituals. No matter one's faith, it all boils down to simple things. There is a saying by Og Mandino that I often use "Do All Things With Love." That is my motto in life and for living.

Andrew...since you're a christian, it would be good to bury a St. Benedict or St. Michael The Archangel medal at the 4 points of your house after doing a cleansing. This seems to work wonders for ppl. Also, after the cleansing...pour salt across your doorways and outside your windows. Just a suggestion!

Honestly I doubt its your imagination if the door has somewhat ceased to move. Some spirits will listen if you're firm enough. Sometimes if its a child, they may just do it for a giggle...lol.
Thanks for sharing!
