Ghostly Expriences

True stories from myself of events that have happened at my mom's house.

Ghostly Expriences

Overthe past few years I've had a lot of different unexplainable things happen at my mom's house. Those things can only be described as ghost encounters, at least for me, my mom and step dad have also both seen things happen in the house. Here are a few of them:

The lights in the family room

We have two lamps in the room that are controlled by a remote and almost every night they would be turned off while my mom is watching TV. Sometimes we can even hear the button clicking when it happens.

Music

Every once in a while I will connect my phone or iPod to a speaker and play music in the basement while I'm doing something else. Therefore sometimes the music will repeat certain lines in certain songs and/or the music will get louder at parts where I know I wouldn't usually do that. This only happens in the basement and I know the songs well enough to here when changes from its original tune.

Names

Over the years both my mom and I have heard our name being called. I've heard my name, "Erin", said twice by a woman. One of those times I was completely alone in the house and it was during night.

Yoga Ball

When I was in my basement one night with a friend we were messing around with a yoga ball and when we were done, we rolled it into the corner. Now the carpet ends before the wall so the yoga ball was not on the carpet anymore and the carpet has about a half inch lip at the edge. The yoga ball would not have been able to just roll onto the carpet by itself or with the help of the air conditioning either. After a few minutes my friend and I at this point had started watching Netflix, with a clear view into the workout section, where the yoga ball was, but we couldn't see the ball. Then all of a sudden we saw the yoga ball rolling across the floor to the other side of the room. At that point we were freaked out and ran upstairs, but nothing else happened that night.

I'm not trying to convince anyone that ghosts are real and maybe some people can explain some of these things, but to me the house has some extra guests. I even have more stories related to this, from a hand on my shoulder to the channel changing.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
