Always things moving in my peripheral vision and occasionally when I'd wake up in the middle of the night I swear I'd see an out of focus woman looking like she was standing in between floors. Our building was a new build built on the site of a very old tenement building so I figure that she was actually 'standing' where the original floor would have been... I'd write it off as sleepy hallucinations except my incredibly sceptical other half saw her too and he believes in nothing he can't see, hear, smell or touch and my cat would freak out over that corner on the regular, lol.<br /><br />I think it sucks that your neighbours cut you out after the encounter with their mum but they probably just didn't know how to handle it... Who would?! :)Niccihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12122972546470154598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-77662159586640150872017-11-02T14:33:47.066-04:002017-11-02T14:33:47.066-04:00That's pretty cool.

It's a freaky story even if you didn't see a ghost. Pretty harsh reaction from the neighbours, though. I suppose it could have been worse, they could have constantly hassled you to see if you saw the woman again.Becky Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14938602345709426466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-69412588332782492222017-11-01T23:23:20.158-04:002017-11-01T23:23:20.158-04:00Oh, my god... are you kidding?! This story totally...Oh, my god... are you kidding?! This story totally gave me goosebumps! I love and live for this kind of thing. Also, I'm kind of sad your neighbors reacted the way they did. I'd think that they'd want to know more about what this woman had said -- especially if they were related to her! It sounds like she was trying to send a message that she's okay and enjoyed the company for a few moments. <br /><br />I had a few similar encounters and they are my favorite stories to read, so thanks for sharing!

I can't explain it away and it may have been a ghost. It's hard to say but I was young and only know my perspective but there could have been more to it that my young brain didn't process.

When I lived with my mom and dad I used to wake up to the sound of someone calling my name around 3 am in the morning. After I left, my mom was experiencing it instead. One day she picked up a glass to drink and it exploded all over her hand into tiny little shards, there was nothing that should have done that kind of damage. Turns out in our country if a glass explodes it's an old wives tale that someone in your family died. My mom found out shortly after her aunt passed away a few days prior.Lily Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17759017749398223793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7047843651411739466.post-38118740665074333272017-11-01T12:02:07.142-04:002017-11-01T12:02:07.142-04:00Me too!

I've nev...Wow, that's pretty creepy, Karen. I've never had anything like that happened. Although shortly after getting married and moving out of my family home I got really spooked. Our house was empty since we were waiting for the movers to ship our stuff across the country, and I remember being home alone with my 2 cats one night. My one cat went out into the hallway from the bedroom (where I was) and started hissing and was all puffed up. I investigated but there was nothing there. That following weekend, the Mr and I went out into the garage (where our washer and dryer were) to do laundry and we both noticed that the wall adjacent to the house door was covered in chalk drawings. We'd been there for a few weeks at that point and neither of us ever remembered there being chalk drawings along our garage wall until that very moment. After that, any time the Mr. had to stay at work over night or train for an extended period of time, I always made sure to leave all the lights on in the house. I wasn't too upset that a year later he got relocated and we had to move.
