BOO!

I have had more experiences with the paranormal than I would have ever wished. I have seen a ghost & the Husband & I lived in a very haunted house. This house was so frightening that we only lasted about 6 months, despite the house being very beautiful & across the street from the Arboretum in Seattle. In this house there was always a presence. There were spots in the house that were ice cold. Doors & windows opened & closed at night. Pictures on the wall moved. We both felt a breath on the back of our necks when we would travel up or down the staircase. Our room would have an icy chill come over it at night. I got really sick in this house & I had an out of body experience while I was sick. During this experience, I would see a shadow leave the room, just as I would float into it. I followed the shadow & then it turned & followed me. We found this house so frightening that we were willing to leave all our belongings & just walk away from living there, indeed when we did leave, what didn’t fit in the U-Haul, stayed. In the house I grew up in, I was always overcome with fear of the basement, & late at night I would hear talking through the vents of the heating system. Decades later, as an adult, I offered this story to my parents, who admitted that they heard the voices too & that they hated to be in the basement also. I have no fear of spiders, snakes, or graveyards.
