Ghost, Spirit Updates

Posted by scarygeek on February 4, 2010 at 20:31 pm

So now that we have decided to move, and hopefully keep the spirits that we found here in this house from coming with us, it seems they are making their last efforts to be seen and heard.  The last couple of days I have seen quite a few shadow figures on and around the stairway, as well as walking around the living room and kitchen areas of the house.  It seems that the one upstairs is also picking up its game, as it keeps walking into my room and standing at the side of my bed.  I just keep telling it that I need my rest and I can’t talk now, and it stays for a bit and eventually goes away. 

My daughter has also been seeing a lot more of them in the house, and is now seeing them at her school.  Today, she finally told me that she has been seeing this almost full apparition in class.  She says that she thinks that it knows she can see him, and that he looks like he is trying to avoid the other people walking around the classroom.  She said that it appears to look lost, and just keeps looking around the room.  She also said that it is wearing dull gray clothing.  She said that her friend saw that she was looking at something today, and asked her what was wrong.  Unfortunately, she was not able to just tell her. 

The other day I slipped on the stairs.  Now, I am a very athletic and have great reflexes, and don’t just go around falling everywhere.  I can’t even remember a time that I have tripped and fallen down.  In fact, I don’t think I ever have until now.  It was strange, because it felt like someone had put roller blades on the bottom of my feet.  I slipped down five steps, and luckily I was able to grab the railing and use my other arm to stop my fall.  It just didn’t feel like an accident, and I can’t say that it was anything else, but I have my suspicions.  Anyway, as I am writing this I just saw one of them run up the stairs, and about an hour ago, the dogs were barking at nothing we could see or hear, but it was at the bottom of the stairs.  These next few days are going to be interesting.

Ghost Updates – Wolf Moon

Posted by scarygeek on January 29, 2010 at 22:11 pm

Tonight is the night of the very first full moon of the year, it is also known as Wolf Moon.  On this night the moon will be it’s biggest and brightest of any other full moon of the year.  Go ahead, take a look, it is very bright and beautiful tonight!

I wanted to give everyone an update on the activity in our home, that has been occurring since about the middle of August of 2009.  We live in New Braunfels, Texas at the moment, with four of our five children.  Our oldest daughter is 13, and she seems to be the conduit that attracts these spirits to our home.  They are generally seen in or around the stairway, and are seen as shadow figures, orbs, bright figures, and now we are seeing actual full apparitions. 

Since August, my husband and I moved into the bedrooms upstairs, and all of the kids sleep together in the master bedroom downstairs.  This way they are as far away from the stairway as possible.  Anyway, after we put the kids to bed last night my daughter called me down to the bedroom because she was hearing footsteps in the attic.  Then she said she was also hearing voices, but she could not make out what they were saying.  I stayed with her in the bedroom for a while and then she began to get frustrated because she does not know why they won’t just leave her alone.  She said that all she wants to do is to be able to sleep.  I feel so bad for her.  We sat there and listened with her, but she said that they soon stopped.  I decided to just let her come up stairs and sleep with me, so that the both of us could get some sleep.

Well, she seemed to fall asleep pretty quickly, but I stayed awake for a bit, because I was feeling like something followed us up stairs.  I was trying to get comfortable when I heard footsteps and something in the attic.  I turned to the sound and heard it a couple more times, and then it settled down.  I didn’t tell my daughter this, but earlier before I went down to her bedroom, I was lying in the bed trying to get comfortable when I felt something grab my exposed leg, and it happened just as she called me down. 

We really are not afraid of these spirits anymore, we have gotten quite used to them.  The only problem is that they do not let us rest.  A good nights seep would be wonderful.  We will be moving soon, and I know that it will not solve our problem, but I am going to do my best to make these spirits stay right here in this house.

The Ghost In the Closet

Posted by scarygeek on January 27, 2010 at 23:31 pm

I moved my family to New Braunfels, Texas in July of 2009.  About three weeks after moving there we began to experience and increase in paranormal activity.  Our family is not new to the paranormal.  I have several family members who possess real psychic abilities including myself, my husband, and our children.  The problem now, is that these spirits, ghosts, or entities have increased their presence, and have made if very difficult to go one night without an incident.  Most of the activity seems to occur in and around our stairway and loft area.  We see shadow figures all of the time, they walk up and down the stairs several times a day.  Sometimes they just sit at the top of the stairs and I wonder what they are thinking.  I have had them come into the room and walk over to my side of the bed and just stand there, staring, and I wonder what it is that they want.  Sometimes when I am in my bedroom or in the bathroom getting ready for work, my kids will walk up the stairs, and as they get to the top they start screaming.  My little boy calls them monsters but I try to get him to see that they are not, and that he needs to tell them to just go away.  He has now started to tell them when he sees them, and he points his fingers at them too.  When we have family gatherings I have started to take lots of pictures, and when we are done there are always lots of very bright orbs that have joined us in our festivities.  I love to ask them to take pictures with us, because they usually do.  There seems to be one that I recognize, and that is interesting to me.  It is the same bluish color and has the same markings time and time again.  Lately, my kids have seen an increase in activity in the down stairs bathroom and closet.  We have had light fixtures fall off of ceilings, and doors open that were closed.  The kids  take baths in the big tub in there, and every once in a while my little ones decided that they want to get out because there is something in the closet.  We hear a lot of noise from in there, and I don’t know what it is, but the kids do not like it.  My youngest son sees it, and I know he does, because he will point it out, and he trembles.  The ghost in the closet has caused me many nights of sleep.  Anyway, I will be writing about more of my true ghost stories as they come about.  Right now, one has just decided to join us in the bedroom.

Ghost Updates!

Posted by scarygeek on January 24, 2010 at 19:31 pm

Well, it has been since the 5th of January, when I thanked Chris for being here in our home, and asked him to leave us and be free.  I didn’t think that I would be able to tell if he had actually left us or not, but I honestly do not feel his presence here anymore.  So, I am happy that he has moved on, and I hope that he has found peace. 

One of the things I have noticed is the negative energy that is felt throughout the house.  Everything about it is negative, and does not feel right at all.  My husband and I are living in the upstairs bedrooms, that are supposed to be our kids rooms.  All four of our children, ages 2 -13 are sleeping downstairs in the master bedroom.  They will not come up to the upstairs bedrooms if they are alone.  My youngest son still sees something in the hallways and stairways, and when he sees it, he sure lets me know.  I have stayed calm when he runs to me, and he now is able to tell it to go away, and he does.  It is the cutest thing. 

The other night I mentioned the negative energy to my husband, and I blamed it on the house.  I told him that we need to get out of here, and that I don’t like it.  Well, the house did not like what I had to say because right then, the glass light cover in the bathroom dropped to the floor and shattered into a hundred pieces.  Luckily, no one was in the bathroom, but it kinda freaked me out, not to mention my kids.  Coincidence?  There are no coincidences.  This was in direct response to what I was talking to my husband about.  I told him we need to stay strong to fight against this negative energy, and that is just what we are doing.  It is really starting to wear on us though, and is now draining our own energy. 

We have continued with the circle, the prayers, and the sage, and I can’t even imagine what it would be like if we did not do these things to help ourselves.  My children are getting better at dealing with the ghosts and everything else, and I have been getting more sleep since the beginning of January.  I just wish I could make it all go away.  I fear that it will not be any better until we move, and Jason and I are working on that every day.

Haunted Places – Calico Ghost Town

Posted by scarygeek on January 17, 2010 at 18:43 pm

When I was a little girl, my family and I went to the Calico Ghost Town, on more than one occasion.  I think my dad liked to walk with the ghosts…lol.  It was fun, and I remember running around and touring the area.  Calico Ghost Town was founded in 1881, and isan old silver mining town, located about 10 miles north of Barstow, California.  The town was purchased by Walter Knott, the owner of Knotts Berry Farm, in 1950.  He later dedicated the town to the city of San Bernardino, and it is now a County Regional Park. 

They used to have a 90 minute guided ghost tour through the town, but I am not sure if they still have one or not.  It has been at least 25 years since I have been there.  They used to have them on Friday and Saturday nights, and they were taken after it got dark.  There have been reported sightings of apparitions and shadow people during tours and not.  I don’t really remember any events or encounters during the time that I was there, but I do remember the “feeling”, you know that one that you get when there is an energy trying to drain your own….lol.

Calico is a pretty neat little town, if you are ever close by, it is kind of a fun place to visit.  There have been reports of voices, as well as scents and sounds of a horse in the that used to be where the stage coach stopped.  Wow, a ghost horse…..haven’t heard of that one yet.

Since I have started writing about my paranormal experiences, and since my awareness has seemed to increase, I have been wanting to go back to all of those places that I visited as a child.  It would be fun to revisit those places that claimed to have been haunted.  Calico would be a very fun place to take my own kids, and see what kind of experiences we can have.  I plan on going back to the West Coast some time in the near future and will be making an effort to visit these places so that I can write about my own experiences.  Well, if you have any Calico Ghost Town stories you would like to share, I would love to read them and maybe even post them on my site, with your permission of course! Email them to lisa@scarygeek.com.  Thanks!  Happy Ghost Hunting!
