Huron, Thanks for the compliment!! I didn't paint the walls in the tan room, but it looks to me like they used a textured roller and just did 2-3 different colors and maybe a glaze as well. The green room is just hideous, I think, and would like to paint it differently someday.
I have an interesting pic. Not an orb type thing though I've had those too. Look at this weird one. The first is the normal one and the second is the weird one.
OO Now this is my kinda topic! LOL. I'd start posting pics but I'd be here for days. Hubby and I are obbessed with ghosts and ords. I think I got him hooked! When I lived in Savannah GA I was always going to ghost walks and tours. I look a gazillion pics. Hubby and I take our digi cam everywhere with us, we will take pics of just about anything then can't wait ot get home to see what is there. I won't start telling my stories cause I have cleaning to do but, if anyone wants to hear them just let me know i'll gladly type them out tonight. But, I don't want to bore everyone if they don't. If I get sometimes tonight i'll upload some pics and post them also if ya'll wanna see.
Stormy both the pictures have something. Do you see the little round white things in the first picture. Could be orbs, unless you can say there was something else there. And the smoke or foggy stuff is something too. What were the kids looking at. It almost looks like they knew something was there. Ohhh I love this, and am love I brought it up. Bring those storys on.
When my ex was staying the night he passed out on the couch and I couldn't wake him so I decided to leave him. The next morning he came to me and asked me if I woke him up at about 4am. I told him no. He went on the explain that some lady woke him by putting a blanket over him. When he described this woman it ended up being my grandmother. He had never met her nor had he ever seen a picture of her. He described her perfectly!
One night be brother was staying the night and sleeping on the couch. He awoke to a little boy sitting in the middle of the living room. We did not have my step sons that night so he knew it wasn't one of them. When he said something to the little boy the boy looked at him and spoke something in another language. He told me that the little boy was dressed like an Indian. Later we found out that the language the boy spoke was Seminole.
I personally have seen this little boy. He plays Peek A Boo at my bedroom door. At first I thought I was loosing my mind and ever said anything to anyone, then my brother told me that and I knew I wasn't crazy. My husband says there is a little girl also, I haven't seen her and he hasn't seen the little boy.
This story people always think that I have officially lost it. But I am not the only one that saw this that night....
While walking in downtown Savannah there is this old crazy house. This place has been vacate for years I'm talking over 15 years. There is NO power at all to the building. My friend and I were walking our dogs at about 1am. We thought that it was funny that there was a single light on in the whole building, this was before we knew that there was no power and the place was vacant. We stood there and watched for as much as 20 mins. The light went on from room to room on that one single floor. After about 5 mins there was about 10 people watching. After it was said and done a ghost tour passed and told the story about how the building was vacant and that there is no power, that people have said they have seen lights turn on in the 3rd floor and go room to room.
My friend and I almost passed out. The group of people that saw this happen were speechless. To this day I still get chills thinking about this. I think that, that one experience will be with me until the day I die!
I think the one has possible orbs may be a refelction of my flash on neighbors car tail lights or windows. Not sure but that are about in the right place but the smokey one for sure noone was smoking and my lense was clean no other pics have smoke in them from that day.
Um, I just got off work, I eat once every 24hrs....that would be now. I love this topic, and have goodies, although my take on the otherworld is slightly different. I am clairvoyant, telepathic, and have done astral projection since age 12...I have lots of cool stories, but I needto make spinach quesadillas, BBQ steak, and, if I wanna keep my job, I REALLY need to dye my hair[photo ops on Monday at Ren-Fair, also]. So, I'm saying we table this till I can get some of these myriad tales down for you. I have work, upon work, on the weekend
If I get time later, 3am or so, I will post. But forgive me if I get back to it....
Wow!! I totally believe in that stuff although I am far from an expert on the subject, I see the spots (orbs?) in some pics and in others, not a single one.
Nikki, that is really something...by the way, the kids look adorable. Kinda funny that the smokey image showed on Halloween, huh. I'm a believer, there is so much stuff that we can't explain, amazing.

This house is rarely ever quite. AS THE WIND JUST SLAMMED BY BATHROOM DOOR SHUT AND SCARES THE CRAP OUT OF ME!!! OMG LMBO"
This thread went extra wide for me tooooooo!!!! OMG!! :)
Stormy. wow, you have ghosts in your house. How spooky it must have been to first find them. How long have they been there?
Kitty, What Ren faire are you going too. That is what my boss does for a living, goes and sells his stuff. he makes a very good living doing it. I help with the leather goods and clothing. I just got a new leather purse that he made. It has cow fur on it. Cool.
The little boy has been here as long as I can remember. I grew up in this house, my grandparents used to own it as their winter home. I've seen the little boy for a long time now. My grandmother died in this house in 1999 so i'm guessing she's been here since then. Barney will sit in front of her chair and wag his tail and act like he's being petted, then the chair will start rocking on it's own. My son will act like he's playing with someone and try to pass his toys to them but to us it looks like he's trying to pass them to the walls or no one. I've seen him run with his arms wide open like he's running to give someone a hug and down right fall over when he tries to give that "someone" a hug.
It doesn't bother me at all that they are here. As long as they don't play hide and seeks with my things anymore i'm ok. I had to have a "talk" cause they were hiding my things. I had set my purse on the table on day after comming home ( I was the only on here at the time) I went to the rest room then I changed when I came back it was no where to be found. Later that night I went into the kitchen and it was sitting back on the table.
Have you ever did any research to find out if many years ago, there was maybe a reservation where your house is? I definatley think your children see someone. are they old enough to ask them what they see and have them tell you?
I had this good friend in highschool named Justin. Things always went missing in his house, you would put down your keys, or purse and then it would be gone. He told us once that this one room in the way back of the house was haunted, no one ever went in there, so they just kept junk in there. One night I slept over and I heard knocking on the walls, it creeped me out! He then told me that the woman who owned the house before his family bought it, got murdered very brutally in that house (I wont go into details) but it is probly her haunting that house! I always got a wierd feeling when I went to his place.
That pic was taken in 2002? I think. When we lived in Groton, CT in military housing. That house actually did actually creep me out not sure why. The child on the right is my daughter who is 4 now and def wouldn't remember. The other is my next door neighbor's son. I know there are some shows about hauntings in CT so it may very well be. Not sure what they were looking at but I thought us.
We lived in groton, CT off rte 12 and gungywamp rd. You can try to find something if you want to. Street was deerwood dr.
Also, I saw a link onetime to look up your city/state and see whats haunted in your area and I am in Hawaii right now and let me tell you it said everything was haunted here!!!! Everything here was built on burial grounds! Let me see if I can find that link for you
Oh and you mentioned reservation? You mean Indian reservation? If so then yes it's in CT so we are right near foxwoods and mohegian sun casinos which are on reservations.
