I have posted many updates about the things that have been happening here in our home with our 13-year-old daughter. We have seen shadow figures, full apparitions, orbs, and light energies, we have seen fan light chains pulled, and lights go off and on, as well as felt the chill and touch of something in the hallways and stairway of our home. We have had to burn books, burn sage, chalk each other, and pray with each other to keep us safe from evil entities. It all seems to center around our daughter.
Tonight, I saw a program that I just caught the tail end of a few times before. It was called Psychic Kids, and it was actually a pretty good show, other than the fact that it seems to focus on being scared. The mothers are always very clingy and protective, and it seems like they make the situation way worse than it has to be.
I know that I go down and sit with Sera, but I don’t feed into the fear. I try to sit with her and understand what is going on, and then talk to her about why it might be happening. We have tried to talk to them to find out what it is that they want, and we have tried to tell them to go away when we need rest. For the most part, I think that she has become less afraid, but more frustrated because they don’t seem to want to leave us alone.
A friend of mine suggested that we contact these people, after she read some of our posts. I have thought about it, and maybe it would be a good experience for her to meet other kids that are going through similar things. I know that I would have been happy to meet other kids with my abilities when I was growing up. I had to live and learn through it all alone, my parents did not talk about these things growing up, even though they both experienced similar things. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I found out about it. I guess she is lucky to at least have me.

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.

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!

One of the most haunted houses in the Los Angeles County, is the Leonis Adobe House. This house is not like any other haunted place I have written about. This house is haunted by a woman named Espiritu Chujilla, who just so happens to be my great-great-grandmother.
The Leonis Adobe House was built in 1844, and is one of the oldest surviving homes in the area. It is located in what is now Calabasas, California. It was registered with the The National Register of Historic Places in 1975, and now serves as a museum.
Leonis Adobe, acquired the house in the mid 1800’s. He purchased half of the property from its dying owner, but the second half he acquired by marrying a widowed mission Indian named Espiritu Chujilla. She lived with Leonis in the house for 30 years, until 1889 when he was killed after suffering from injuries received when he was run over by his own wagon. His Will was read soon after his death, and in it, he denied Espiritu as his wife, and referred to her as his “Faithful Housekeeper.” The property was worth $1,000,000.00 at the time of his death, he left Espiritu $10,000.00, and left the remaining property to his siblings. There was a 15 year legal battle over the estate, and Espiritu suffered greatly. Having no money, she was forced to eat what she could find or hunt down, sometimes eating the acorns that she picked off of the ground. Even though several witnesses testified that Leonis acknowledged Espiritu as his wife, his siblings wanted the estate. She even showed them the grave of their only daughter who died before adulthood. His name was on the grave, identifying him as her father. Anyway, she ended up being awarded half of the estate, but was taken advantage of by lawyers, and lost all of the property by bogus lawsuits. Espiritu lived in the Leonis Adobe house until her death in 1906, at which time her son, by her first marriage, moved his family into the home.
The house was named one of the most haunted places in Los Angeles, and was featured on the British television show “Most Haunted” in 2005. Many of the people that work and visit the house have reported having paranormal experiences. There have been reports of very clearly heard voices on both levels of the home, but when checked, there is never anyone to be found. A shadow figure of a woman on the upstairs balcony has been reported seen by passers by. There was even a report of a woman who was standing on the balcony, who was pulled back by an invisible set of hands, at the exact time that the balcony collapsed. Leonis himself, has been seen walking his dog, and even on his deathbed. Footsteps on the upper floor and stairways, and a strong smell of soap, are always a commonly reported experience.
I honestly can’t wait to take my family to the house. I am looking forward to taking some good pictures and maybe even asking Espiritu to take one with me. If you have any stories to share, please email me at lisa@scarygeek.com. I would love to read them, and with permission, post them to my site.

I was finally able to get to sleep before 1:00am last night, but as usual, when I want to get some sleep, it just doesn’t happen. I was sleeping pretty well when I received a text from my daughter Sera, who is in the downstairs master bedroom with her brothers and sister. The text only read, “help.” So, here we go again, I went running down the stairs half asleep, with my heart beating in my throat down to the kids room. I found Sera lying in her bed with her eyes wide open. I asked her what had happened and she said that she saw three shadow figures in the kitchen, and then one came to her doorway, and just stood there. She then said that the door to the bathroom, which they always keep shut, started rattling. I asked her if they were still there and she said she was not sure. I laid with them for a while, and from the corner of my eye, which is when most shadow figures are seen, I saw them three times. I stayed with her and asked her if she was going to be okay sleeping and she said she was not sure. So I stayed with them. After about ten minutes of sitting with them, the bed started shaking. It did not last long, but they were letting me know they were there, and neither one of the girls moved, and the shaking felt like it came from right beside me. I asked it to let us rest now, and then asked my daughter to just come up stairs with me so that we could both get some much needed sleep. We both fell asleep without a problem, and the remainder of the night was uneventful.
