I used to live in an old haunted house, most likely the first house to be built in Upper Darby, on 11 South Madison Ave, off of West Chester Pike. I haven't lived there for about 10 years going on now, but I was around five years of age when we all as a whole large family moved in, well we needed a large house with ample space to lodge my grandmother, grandfather, aunt uncle, cousin, my sisiter and brother and myself. this was the early sixties don't forget and ghost stories were mostly whispered in the dark when you were kids growing up only trying to scare one another. Little did we know back then how real they can be. That is if you allow them in. It's like the angels and muses and fairies and anything u yourself choose to believe, depsite others protestions that it is just a figment of your over-active imagination. I didn't really begin having experieces with any of them until I was around 12 or 13. And back then I didn't really believe in them. But others in my own family experieiced them to. Hearing certain things, like doors opeing, closing, footfalls where no one was. It was more or less as an adult I had become when I started seeing some. The late rock and roll singer Andy gibb brother to the BEEGEEs was one whom I saw coming to my door and staring at me smilingly and brightly while I had been asleep but awakened by the squeaky squeal of my bedroom door which led from the entryway. I arose somewhat and was shocked to see him. This was recently after he had passed on. He may not have been as cold in his grave then if you know what I mean. And to this very day istill have him visiting me from the other side. I briefly met him a few times at some of his shows, but we never had a real relationship of any sort. But when I had told my grandmother about him coming in my room she didn;t doubt it at all. Instead she said when you told me he looked at you he might have liked you and saw that you liked him too and she said from the other side can they come a whole lot easier. It's always a mystifiying event when I am visited by folks have passed. Why I was the one chosen I do not know. If I had those kind of answers I would be a mutil zillionaire. I guess I should not ponder the ifs and or whys but allow it to be the way it is meant to be. I am too a ghost whisperer.

My first experience with a haunted house was when I was 11 yrs. old. I would hear footsteps, sighing and also heard an old broken clock chime on the hour. Four years ago, I was harassed by continuous noises, ghostly apparitions, a lot of smoke but no smell,my mattress felt like there were critters crawling inside...my cat felt it too, he would paw at the mattress. I would sit on the couch and feel it moving and I was touched 5 times.I occasionaly heard voices. This went on for 8 months. I had a priest hold a service for The Dead and I would talk to the spirits , telling them that it was time to go to the Other Side and that their families were waiting for them. More important is that I told them that they were dead and that God was welcoming them to The Other Side. I also prayed for them, every night. One morning, I felt my bed being kicked , once, which felt like a giant had kicked the bed. After that, my house was peaceful. I believe that these spirits stay on earth for several reasons....Upon dying, the person does not go up the White Light but prefers to stay earth bound in order to protect their remaining family or the dead person does not feel worthy to cross over the the Other Side. I feel that these poor spirits live in a type of Purgatory and need our prayers to move on. I read all of Sylvia Browne's books and followed her directions I am so grateful for her advice.

Where exactly are these haunted houses located at??? The names of the cities and states would be great to know. I would love to visit these places but don't know what states or cities they are in. A little more information would be great. Thank you, Judy, from Las Vegas, Nev.USA

We went to the Lemp Mansion in St. Louis 2 weeks ago and it was awsome. I never saw so many orbs in one spot. We had shadows, appiritions, cold spots,etc. My oldest son used a recorder and asked questions in which yes he did receive responses. We heard a dog barking in the house, there are no animals in the house. But Charles Lemp did shoot and kill his dog before killing himself. We stayed all night on the 3rd floor which is the most active. Wonderful experience!!

Michelle, that sounds like it could very well be your spirit guide, who is always with you. Ask it for it's name..Enjoy

I have had a spirit follow me from house to house. It just follows me where ever I go. Sometimes I hear someone call my name, sometimes I feel someone touch or tap me, and sometimes I see blurs out of the corner of my eye. What ever it is I tell it as long as it's not mean it's welcome to stay with me. I know it sounds kinda strange but - it is what it is.

I have three grandchildren that readily see spirit.My husband had gone on a rafting trip and on his return all 3 kids described a young boy around age 6, in spirit, going in and out of their bedrooms. The boy had a baseball cap on and would wake my grandson up at night playing with his toys in the closet, also sitting on his bed. My granddaughter was annoyed because he would wake her up at night. One night he was turning the knob on the front door and all 3 kids woke us up.Finally we decided to investigate where and when this child came in.My husband said on the way to the put-in on the river were 3 crosses on the side of the road, they stopped and read that an entire family was killed in a roll over accident here in the 60's, in cluding a 6 year old boy. We surmised from this that the little spirit was looking for his family, had not crossed over and knew that our house would be his help, so he came home with my husband!We let him stay all summer and my grandson loved his new friend although he was mischievous.Before school started that year we had a prayer circle, invited his lost family to retreive him and he left in true joy.That was 9 years ago and we haven't forgotten him.We have many stories about helping lost souls cross and these children regard them as every day occurances, their job so to speak. Let the little ones tell you who's around you might be surprised. They don't always let you know because it isn't unusual to them until we taint their knowing with our disbelief.If God is spirit so are we, easy......
