The house that I live in is haunted. The ghost is usually nice, but used to freak me out all the time. I was sweeping and cleaning before I moved my furniture in, and I set the broom against the wall, I started walking away and the broom slammed down onto the ground. Now, there were no windows open and when the broom fell in fell straight away from the wall, it didn't slide down the wall like it should normally, so that was the first thing. Second there is a small hallway going into my room and everytime I go in that hallway, I feel really weird, like the air in that hallway was extra heavy, or smoky or something, I always run or jump into my room, so that I won't have to feel it. Also, if I ever leave the house and a window is open, I would come back and they were closed, if I left a door, like to a bedroom open, it would be closed. One time I was doing the dishes and there is a window right on top of the sink, I was hot so I opened the window and looked down doing the dishes and the next time I looked up the window was shut and the curtains were closed. I always have little trickets and jewlry on top of my dresser and desk in my room, well the ghost used to take whatever was out, on top of the dresser would end up in one of my drawers, even if i had money or change it would end up in the drawers, I would get mad, because in the begging I didn't know where to look.
So then I was telling my neighbor about it and she told me that the woman who lived here before me told her a story about her grandmother. Her grandmother died in my house, and to make it worse she died in the hallway.
Grandma was alive during the depression and used to hide checks and cash in the walls and under the floor boards in the house, she lived alone, so was very frugal with her money. my neighbor and I decided that grandma was trying to protect me and my things, by closing all the window and by hiding my stuff. so after that I wasn't really scared any more. Well last sunday the pipes under my kitchen sink busted and my kitchen wa stotally flooded. Me and my boyfriend were trying to replace the pipes and he noticed a whole in the wall and reached in and felt some paper and he tried to pull it out of the wall but couldn't then he said "its like someone is pulling on the other end" and once he said that, it came loose he pull out the paper and was a newspaer article talking about the stock market crash!!!! I couldnt believe it!! my boyfriend didnt know about grandma until that day. Well he must have done something to make her mad. Because, monday night I was home alone, with Rico and Ava of course and I went to the laundry mat at the end of the block to move my clothes from the washer to the dryer. I left Rico and Ava in my bedroom because the kitchen, where I usually keep them when I am not there, was flooded from the pipes leaking (thank god). I was only gone maybe 5 minutes and when I came home my whole house was filled with smoke!! I flew open the door to the room and Rico and Ava came running out, thank God there was no smoke in my room because I had shut both doors, but the once i got into the kitchen I saw all four burners on my gas stove on full blast! I turned them off and took Rico and Ava outside so that the wouldnt breath any smoke. Once I got inside sfter the smoke had cleared i went into the kitchen and everything in the kitchen was black and melted. Such a big mess!!
Tuesday I bought some flowers and put them in grandmas hallway I told her that I was sorry for whatever happened and that I was not trying to hurt her or take her money, that i was thankful for her watching over me and that I would try take very good care of her house for her if should would never do anything like that again. It was very scary. But I haven't had anything happen since then and she even left my jelwery on top on my dresser the last couple of days!
