That's fun. You check that stuff out if you want to get a good laugh um Let's see uh, nothing really Fantastical This from heather cushion, but home. I currently live and was built by my great grandfather Alfred george bell He came to the house after picking up the water line sat down at the table to eat a sandwich and then suddenly died of a brain aneurysm The home in set 40 acres was left to his wife janela who was 52 at the time I was in preschool in the family auction her father purchased the home and the land And we've lived here ever since dad did a number of innovations with the help of his uncles Adding a second story in a garage mom insisted on installing numerous large wall mirrors all over the place We've had our own bit of spooks things going missing reappearing or randomly falling Doors opening but most of it harmless we chalk it up to grandpa and grandma One night. I did have a singular sleep paralysis episode When I was younger and I swore the nom of my door turned I have any of you guys have that feeling that you couldn't move and there was something going on in your room That you should be doing something about but you couldn't that's a scary thought um She also had some uh misgivings about a porcelain doll that her grandmother gave her when she was younger It always freaked her out. So first she buried it in her closet Uh until she started having closet nightmares in her room. And so she chucked the Mm-hmm thing into her mom's clients And she talks about misgivings and wanderings about the house at night. I know yeah Uh ghost story about my fourth great grand uncle or growth fourth fourth times great uncle joseph buck He was a lock keeper at wink well near hamel hamstead And his result was allowed to live in the local lock keepers cottage with his wife and whatever family chose to visit him The problem with this cottage arguably the lock in general was that the door was very close to the wink well's pub The three horse shoes it meant that on christmas day when joseph was thought to have been on his way home from a drinking When he fell in and drowned in his own lock Uh at the same at the time the news of his death circulated as a space filler newspapers across england And after his death the legend emerged that he haunts the pub because he was mad that they caused his death How about that? Hey, hillary hillary's here in home quest Patricia jackson. Hey y'all sarah's out if you didn't notice it's just me and i'm in the middle of doing the uh Uh question of the week, which is do you have any ghosts in your tree? Uh seventh great grandfather hugh jones. This is from alexis nelson alexis always gives us fun stuff He was part of the puritan great migration and he must have come to a mysterious end since four years after he died He was brought into the infamous Salem witch trials as being a ghost That's pretty cool Pretty cool. Uh, let's see pretty sure i've told this one before but i'll tell it a million times this from our buddy chris ferrello My grandmother Olympia passed away in 2002 We thought we heard her voice as we were selling the house She lived in up until the day she died Well, my dad decided to put the test put it to a test and see if there was a ghost in the house He put her she's candy bar on the kitchen table And left for the day we came back and there was the wrapper all crumpled up the side Uh and beside it was a crumpled up tissue There was no sign of break in or anything for real. Did you actually see that chris ferrello? That's pretty cool. That's pretty fun Let's see unfortunately no real spookiness in this one But my great great grandparents would have thought so My great grandfather their son lennard joined the royal navy and subsequently served in australia new zealand before deciding That he didn't want to return home essentially going a wall and setting settling in wellington New zealand about 1903 at this point He couldn't contact them and they all knew all they knew that he was serving somewhere in the pacific This is from amelia ute uteing Uh while he was working as a seaman eventually boarding a ship came back to england He arrived at his family home in norwich during mass It was waiting at their doorstep when they arrived home His mother nearly fainted Why you might ask because shortly before this several soldiers in the navy had been killed in battle and pop on You guinea and they assumed that he was among them since they hadn't heard anything from him Uh They had even asked his name be read at the mass. So that's pretty interesting Showing up and having your family think you were a ghost um lienne dear talks about uh being uh ill and experiencing a mystifying But fuzzy brain syndrome syndrome whoo Let's see. Uh, she Walked down to look at her a picture that was Glowing and um, she just thought in her mind. She's happy. She's brilliantly happy And then her brother called the next day to let her know that her mother's only sibling Her beloved wane had passed away unexpectedly that previous night And in her brain, she's connecting the fact that she thought that that was a glowing photo of her beloved Of his of her mom waiting for her beloved brother Let's see charita perkins. My only ghost story isn't That exciting but it certainly was to me as a child I lived with my grandparents and the jones chapel method his church was forward doors down from our home He told me before he started dating my grandmother that he was on a hay ride This is her grandfather a team of mules or horses and bales of hay to sit on the back of the wagon. Those are very common here Uh The men were all flirting with the girls and they were being left off at their own homes and it was about midnight They drove past a church and everyone saw a light on inside He jumped off the wagon to go see who was in the church as it was all on always unlocked He said the light was coming from behind the altar altar. He ran up to see who or what it was Only took him a few seconds to run and when you arrived at the altar, there was no one there She doesn't really explain if the light was still shining when he got to the altar There were a few boys and girls standing at the back door to see who was going in and out So they nobody ever ran past them and the driver made them leave But they never really figured out what had gone on that caused that light to glow in the church Oh, let's see the um Tim Wood says my parents lived in a 17th century house on the village green on the wall at the top of the stairs There's a painting of a young relative kate bishop from my grandmother's grandmother's side of the family Kate was a poet whose poetry was published in newspapers under the pseudonym kb I have a book and some newspaper clippings of her poems Other than those about her family, most of them were quite dark and unfortunately. She committed suicide when she was 23 One evening when visiting from the u.s with my wife and two-year-old daughter kate Who were sometimes they referred to as kb for kate bundle We heard what sounded like katie having a nightmare They went upstairs to make sure she was okay. She was sitting up in bed apparently quite happy And she's pointed to the picture on the wall of kb and said the lady in the picture came to visit me There we go. Oh, let's see. I have two stories, but uh They're not long past descendants. This is connie volk my cousin loved butterflies When we were filing past her casket end of november cold and windy a butterfly That's not typically the time you see butterflies a butterfly landed on my arm and stayed there for quite a while As I was scattering dirt many gasps were heard by those present It was a it's a wonderful memory The second story she has is my husband and I decided that whoever died first Would let the other know somehow they were all right Fewer years later my husband died in my arms. That's very sweet A week later on a very bright sunny morning His very shy cat that lived under the bed and only came out for him suddenly appeared on top of the bed Mowing very loudly and jumping up and down as if trying to get something The room then filled with the odor of a cigar This only lasted a minute and then it was gone and fiona the cat Went right back under the bed She thinks that this was the message from her husband letting her know that he was okay. Isn't that a cool story? uh, let's see Somebody says there are 10 degrees jenine isleman. There you go.

I simply walked through it After all you dream in your astral body and physical objects pose no obstacles to travel in the state of consciousness The second story she has is not really a ghost story But it's more scary than some actual encounters with the departed when I was a girl scout camp We used to tell ghost stories sitting around the campfire sometimes to our mark scouts or leaders would collaborate One would tell the stories and the other would hide in the woods making scary noises. We've all kind of had those Then we would all sing songs now I can see that singing was supposed to get us into a better mood after being scared out of our Wits, that's I that happened to me.

I have a connection to a really great ghost story that was featured in uh the haunting the celebrity haunting show the haunting of uh tom green My spouse's great grandfather died in a humongous fire in 1913 at parliament here hill here in canada He and his namesake or he was named after Alphonse de jardin. They were both working at parliament Uh, the great grandfather was a brown coat or a dominion policeman the forerunner of the mounted police And during the fire he was pretty heroic. He is um Given credit for saving many people who could not get out of the burning building by himself So he helped them get out They eventually found his body under the west tower entrance of our parliament hill building at that time uh, so he did pass away as did his Uncle alphonse de jardin well tom green if you know anything about tom green, he's pretty famous for doing practical jokes and um So one night he somehow talked his way into the natural history museum of canada here in ottawa and um was supposed to be doing Something there writing something and he was spending the night in the museum and I don't know how he talked his way in there Well, he was not on the floor. He was supposed to be in he went up to another floor Um and was trying to keep away from the security guards because he wanted to do things that he wasn't supposed to do That's what tom green does While he was up there. Um, he turned around and looked and there was a man walking towards him Who was quite tall who was wearing a particular? you know clothing and um Apparently according to the long island medium Um, this ghost was alphonse de jardin our great grandfather.

There was an overpowering smell of orange blossoms Everyone could smell it if I was in the room, but if they came by and by themselves They never smelled it. There would be items shifted in the room as well that That were mine, but never anyone else's always felt that instead of ghost making its presence known It was a guardian angel made me feel less anxious. Isn't that a cool way of thinking of that? Let's see This inn in Durham, New Hampshire. This is from norah hernandez Is rumored to be haunted by a descendant of my ancestor valentine hill Who wants owned property the story goes that his daughter hannah boist drowned in the adjacent river Although there's no documentation of this event She did pre-decease her husband and his will specifies that he has to be buried as near to her as possible And supposedly enjoys messing with electronic devices There have also been reports of a male spirits.
