I was babysitting for my friend. My kids were sleeping and when
my friend got home, I decided to go to the local restaurant down the
street. While I was there I met a friend named Eddie. I went to his house
to have a quick visit, than I went back to my friend's house and slept
over on her couch.

As I was laying there still awake, I felt someone touch me on my side. I
turned over to see a man in a black shirt with jeans on, crouched beside
me. I definitely knew it was a spirit because I could see the clock right
through him. He looked like just your modern day average guy. He said,
"Don't be afraid, it will be alright, just go back to sleep." So I did
what he said, and went back to sleep..

Sounds like a "shadow person" almost... Was he a ghost or a traveler from another dimension or time? Funny how he didn't speak to you any further or try to interact. I wonder what he wanted???

I moved into this house in Dungannon VA after I left the air
force in December of 1988. It all started when I was unpacking the first night.
My wife had gone down the street to see her mother along with my 4 year
old daughter. I heard a noise upstairs, it sounded like someone running
across the floor. I thought that was strange because I was the only one
there I thought at the time, so I went upstairs to investigate. they're were
2 bedrooms and a third door that served as a storage area. I've seen ghosts
before so I don't scare easily, so I checked out the bedrooms. nothing
there. I checked the storage room thinking there was an animal, maybe a
squirrel or something. again nothing. so I said "whatever" and went back
down stairs to resume unpacking. 

About 10 minutes later I heard the sound
again! So I went back upstairs at a dead run to see what the heck was
going on. In the hallway there were several drawers built into the wall for
clothes and three closets. A couple of the drawers were open and all the
doors were too, so I closed everything up and went back downstairs and
really wondered what I was hearing. I went back downstairs and by this time
I was really worried about the strange noise upstairs. all of a sudden I
heard crashing noises and doors being slammed upstairs. That really
freaked me out. I don't know how I got the courage but I went upstairs
pulled the light cord and looked around. to my amazement all the drawers
were on the floor in a pile and every door was open which I had just
closed up. I was shocked. I said out loud, "Ok its time to quit playing
games its not very funny!"  I never had any other experience like it ever. 

I
told my wife when she got back and of course she said "you're nuts". so we
went to bed on a mattress on the floor that night , across the room from
the heater and window. it was in the lower 30s that night fairly cold. when
I woke up in the morning we ended up next to the window with it open and
the cold, I think is what woke me up. how the hell did we end up on the
other side of the room!!! And with the window open?! 

There were several
other incidents in that house, one in particular, we had a problem with the
power going on and off. this continued for a few weeks. one day I was
making toast and it was like a fuse blew in the basement. I went to check
it out to see about a blown fuse to my surprise the fuses were out of the
fuse box on the ground in front of the fuse box and here's the kicker they
were brand new. How did that happen. Somebody or something had to take
them out. There was no entrance to the basement only from the kitchen where
I was. very eerie indeed. thought I would share this story, its
experiences I'll never forget!!!

Wow great creepy story! Did you ever find out anything about the house? I think the drawers being flung open and the contents all over the floor would have been it for me!

Salty Tears....

About 15 years ago my grandchild died, and of course we were all
sad, his parents were living in the same house with us at the time this happened. The house was
old, it had 11 usable rooms 2 stairways, built somewhere before 1900, and it had
survived the 1913 flood.

We had been sitting around watching TV, when my son and daughter-in-law
found drops of water on them, my son being weird, just had to taste it and
found it salty like tears...Before and after the baby's death my husband
had seen 3 (dark no-faced see-thru figures) walk thru our bedroom. Later on
so did my son aged 22.. 

My daughter aged 18 was lying in bed one night
singing to herself with her eyes closed and on opening them she
encountered 3 silver orbs floating above her head........ I myself have seen a
4" swirling flame about 2" off the floor, it just swirled for a few seconds
then disappeared, smoke alarms would go off and on in the middle of the
night...I tried to find out something about the house, but found
nothing...over the years more things happened but I loved that house
dearly...and still do.......
