My decision to re-open this Blog was not one that I took lightly. I played around with the idea for months. There were a few reasons that led me to do this. The first one is that I will soon be removing my families paranormal story from print. And the second reason is that I am currently working on a paranormal book which has led the activity in our home to pick back up. Unfortunately. it looks like I will be updating this blog again from time to time. If this Blog can help just one person see the signs and take action to keep themselves from going through what we have, it will be worth every word written. This blog is a personal Journal of me and my family as we deal with the unknown in our house. It's true, it's raw. and it's real.

Poltergeist

I know I haven't updated in a while.But that does not mean that it has gotten quite around here. When things happen, I'm not always where I can update or make a note of it. So that leaves me with trying to keep it all in my head until the next update. I know, not a really good idea.I will try to do better.

I guess the main things going on now, are not really that frightening. But VERY annoying.
We had been gone one night. There was no one at all in the house. When we came in, we saw where the trash can had been knocked over.No dogs could have possibly done this, as we have a gate between the dogs and the garbage can. We all just agreed on how strange it was and cleaned up.

Then yesterday, Marty had left for work. The kids were still sleeping. And I had just made a cup of coffee and sat down at my computer.I heard something behind me. I got up to see what had caused the noise. And to my amazement, the trash was turned over.No one, but me was in this part of the house. I had no explanation. I got the broom and dustpan and cleaned up. I sat back down at my computer. Just as my fingers hit the keyboard, I heard a noise. This time, I knew what it was.The trash had overturned! I got up to look. Yep, I now had another mess to clean up. But how? Why? There is just no explanation.

My DIL had quite an experience herself, with things in her room being moved as she slept.This does not surprise me at all. We have been using camera's overnight now. With no luck so far.The camera keeps shutting down in their bedroom.

A Visual

For the past few days, the activity has picked up again. This may be coincidence or maybe paranormal. But either way, it's freaking strange. My son was standing in front of the TV, changing the channels. And his cross necklace fell off his neck. Later that night as Marty sat working on his computer, his cross fell from his neck. A few nights later. Marty's cross came off in the bed. Then Chris's fell off again. Then my daughter in law put Chris's cross necklace on. A day later it fell off as she watched TV. I was starting to wonder about this. So I went and got out two more and hung them on mine and Marty's monitors to see if anything happens to them.

The night before last night. I was sitting at my computer when I heard a shuffling noise come from my bedroom. I looked up just in time to see a strange shape come from the foot of my bed, and head up toward my dresser. It moved very very fast. But the weird part was, as it passed by the foot of my bed, it knocked my picture off the wall. I just sat there shocked at what I had just witnessed. This thing was the size of a regular human, about 5 or 6 feet, very dark, and appeared to be hunched forward as it moved. I was just about to tell my family about it. But I said, "Did you see that?!"And my daughter and law said yes, very quietly. I turned to see where she was and she had been standing about six feet behind me, and over to my left. The perfect angle to get a good look at what I had seen. She described perfectly what I had just witnessed. That night after I went to bed. I had horrible demonic dreams. I woke at 3:02 in the morning. For no reason. My heart was racing, and I was still reliving these dreams in my mind. I woke Marty to go to the bathroom with me, being too scared to go alone. I hate feeling like this in my own home....................

It's not over.

We were all so hoping that this was finally over. But no, no such luck. Recently, our lives have been turned upside down, so I think this thing is feeding off our emotions, as it seems to be slightly stronger. I was afraid this would happen. As a family, we have been going through some "not so good" stuff. Which has left us all pretty emotional. And probably will for a while. Just what is this going to do for our unseen guest?

About a week ago, we were all sitting in the living room watching TV. When we heard this crash from the spare bedroom. Marty and I went to see what it was. In that room, I had some bells hanging on a hook on the wall. These bells had somehow removed themselves from the hook and sailed to the other side of the room. Absolutely no explanation for this at all. We hung them back up and went back to watching TV. That night as I lay in bed trying to fall asleep. I notice a strange light on the ceiling. This light would go off and on randomly. It took me a while to figure out that I was watching the light come on a cell phone that had been dead for weeks. And had no power to it at all.

The next night, while cooking dinner. My DIL and I heard what seemed to be dogs screaming. And I mean really crying like something was tearing them limb from limb! My DIL and I both ran to the door. Just in time to see our Jack Russel Terrier and Boston Terrier racing across the yard for the house. It was just starting to get dark outside. But not dark enough for my daughter in law to miss the black shadow that darted across our front porch! We both slammed the front door. As she yelled. "Go away! You are not welcome here!" With what had just happened. Marty spoke up and said that he too had been seeing this "Black being" in the yard. That frightens me. Something doesn't mind being seen now. And I really don't like that.

Update

Sorry I haven't posted in a while. But it seems like every time I thought about it, something came up.

Not a whole lot has been going on. So we thought that just possibly we had finally gotten some closure. My DIL and I were both so excited to think this was perhaps all behind us now. The house felt lighter, And the air smelled fresher. We spent all day cleaning as if to purge the house of any remaining energy.

That night, I was in bed sound asleep. I was laying on my back, with my left arm over my head. When all of a sudden my ring finger was grabbed very hard at the knuckle. This was such an unexpected bolt of pain that I saw a blinding white light just behind my closed eyelids. Then my arm was yanked up toward the ceiling and slammed down on my chest! I said out loud, "Marty if you wanted me to move, all you had to do was ask. That really hurt me!" I was feeling the intense pain in my finger, and I said, That wasn't cool. I'm really hurting. Then I heard him snore slightly. I slowly reach over and touched him. He had his back to me, sleeping on his side. I knew right then, it wasn't him that had just hurt me. There was just no possible way. Just as my mind registered that it could be something worse. I looked up at the clock, it was 3:02. My heart froze. But I thought all this was over! It took me quite a while to fall back asleep. My finger was throbbing. The next morning. I had to soap up my hand and remove my wedding rings. My finger was all black and blue.

New EVP

Lately, we have been talking with some people that want to send in another team of investigators, and document their findings. Usually, when we discuss things like this, the activity picks up. So with this in mind, I turned on the digital recorder and la1d it on my desk. This is what we caught.

Kind of makes me wonder what will happen if we do agree to do this.

Update

A few days ago, the guys were home from work due to the rain. My DIL and I had been doing laundry most of the morning.We were doing our last load. And while waiting for the washer to stop. She was sitting at the kitchen table on her laptop. I was at my desk. Marty was at his computer, and Chris was laying on the couch.We all heard the most horrible noise! We all jumped up at the same time and went in the direction the sound had come from. And we all froze in our tracks.I was amazed to see my full washing machine, had been moved about five feet. It was now sitting completely out in the middle of the floor.How in the hell can a washer full of clothes and water move? I mean, had it been on the spin cycle, I could have maybe understood it. But it wasn't even off balance! It took my son and husband both to get it put back in place. I guess it's just another of those strange happenings with no explanation.

That night as Marty and I slept. Our bedroom door slammed shut.I know to most people that wouldn't be a big deal. But we have a twenty pound cast iron dog holding that door open.And it had to be moved over for the door to close. It also sits on a rug. So to close this door, you have to physically bend over and pick up this iron dog and set it aside.The noise of the door woke us both up. We turned on the light to see the iron dog sitting out in the middle of the floor. Again, we have no explanation for this, as we have always slept with our door open. Just another strange happening for the record books I guess.

An Experience

I know it's been a while since I updated. But I was waiting to see if things were getting better. I contacted someone that I knew could and would help us. I will not mention his name here. But, I emailed for help. And got an immediate response. I was told of some things I could do that would help rid our home of this unwanted spirit.At first, we couldn't quite get it to work. But on the second try, I'm pretty sure it was working, as things get REALLY bad.I had placed some essential oils in my oil diffusers. I was told precisely which oils to use. Within moments of burning this. Things in the home started happening.Things like family members being touched by unseen hands. Stuff in other rooms falling.Just crazy things. The dogs would bark and growl at things we couldn't see. Then out of nowhere, I got the most horrible feeling like something awful was about to happen. Something terrible that I couldn't control. I called my husband outside to tell him how I was feeling. It turns out he felt the same way. So immediately we went in and turned off the oil burners.I just can't jeopardize my family that way. I felt like this was a bit more than I could handle. So now I am sort of at cross roads. Do I just do this and see what happens, maybe risk losing my home and having to move. Or do I let it go like it is, and still be able to live in my house? I keep asking myself this over and over.

In the meantime. Not much else has happened other than Marty having his cross pulled from his neck as we sat watching TV. At first, he felt it move on his neck. He said, stop it! A few minutes later the chain just falls from his neck and lands in his lap.This has happened before, to other family members. Myself included. So as usual. He just puts it back on, and we continue to watch TV.

A Strange Morning.

With the impending heavy rains. We have had to move Leather (The mama dog) and her nine pups into our spare bedroom. Lacie, (A female Pit Bull) had already been staying in the extra room,(As she is a massive dog, and can't handle the Summer heat.) With Leather now in her place, Lacie got moved to the bathroom. I had a feeling that once both of these rooms were occupied, that the activity in the house would pick up. As it seems that our entity hides in one or the other of these places all the time. The first morning I went to the bathroom to let Lacie outside for a potty break. I opened the bathroom door, and was hit in the face with an odor that seemed to be a cross between a dead rat and fresh poop! It was horrible! I quickly scanned the room. There was nothing in site to be causing this terrible stench. I knew it wasn't Lacie, as she had been bathed and given a clean bedding the night before.I continued to let Lacie outside, then I proceeded to clean every surface in the bathroom. Once that was done, I let Lacie back inside. And the bathroom stayed fresh the rest of the day.It was really odd, as there was no reason for such a horrid smell.

As I had suspected, by occupying both rooms, whatever resides here was forced out of hiding. Now my dog Amy will no longer sleep in the living room. She stays glued to my side all night. Not to mention, the Boston is now barking at random things during the night. When Marty and I got up this morning, Amy stayed as close to me as possible. I sat down at my computer with a cup of coffee, then noticed her peering into the sunroom. Her tail was straight up, and her ears were laid back on her head. I watched her for a bit, then told Marty what I had been thinking, about "it" being forced out of hiding. He seemed to kind of brush it off and went back to reading the news on his computer. At this very moment, it was as if his monitor had been hit from behind! BAM! It was jolted forward the rocked back and forth as it settled back down.He and I just looked at each other. We could not explain or recreate what had just happened.I have to say, I wasn't crazy about him leaving me here today and going to work. If it can hit something that hard, what can it do to one of us? I will be so happy when mom and pups get moved back outside. Then this "thing" can get out of our living space.

Update

Since coming home from our Vacation. We have noticed that our Pit Bull Lacie, no longer wants to stay in the spare bedroom. She is continually scratching at the door to be let out.On different occasions, Family members have gone to open the door and let her out, after hearing her scratching, and she will be curled up on her bed sound asleep.So we know that she wasn't the one making the noise. But once we look in on her, the scratching stops.She has been so restless in that room lately, that Marty took the holy water and blessed her bedroom. The scratching stopped immediately. And now Lacie is back to her usual self. BUT, Now I have noises coming from our bedroom. I go to the doorway and look. And of course, there is nothing there.It's not just our bedroom. It seems to be the sunroom too. As the dogs will look at the corner of the room in there or either down the hallway and bark like they just saw a stranger. A really agitated bark. That sets my nerves on edge each time.


The night before last, I was having a hard time sleeping. I woke at some point to hear voices in the kitchen. Must be the kids talking. So I tried to doze back off. Sometime later I awoke to a loud noise. BAM! BAM! BAM! Over and over again. It was loud enough to shake the whole house. I wondered how Marty could still be sleeping beside me. Then it occurred to me, that maybe it was my own blood pressure in my ears. I sat up in bed and listened, Bam! Bam! Bam!It did it again. Then totally silent. Now the voices start again. I know it's a man and a woman. But I cant make out what they are saying.I turn to look at the clock. It is 3:39. I speak rather loudly. OK, This is just bull shit.Then I snuggle down into the covers. Just as I am about to doze off, I hear a kitchen chair slide across the floor. Again I say, It's just bullshit. And finally, drift off to sleep.

The next morning, I find that the whole family had been restless through the night. And all had experiences of their own.

A needed Vacation

This isn't really going to be that big of a paranormal update. But more or less notes for me.

Marty, Chris, My DIL, Trevor and I all went up to Cherokee North Carolina for a few days. During our stay away from home. I never woke up at three thirty. I slept all through the night. To me, this was just amazing. It has been years since I was able to do that. But our very first night home, I was waking up at three thirty-three in the morning.
So, based on this, I don't think whatever it follows us.

*Note. Lacie, our female Pit was staying in the spare bedroom while we were gone. The moment we walked in, I went to let her out of the room, to go outside. And she comes full force at me, just trying to get out of that room.I could not control her at all. And no amount of talking was helping. Marty had to grab her from me and force her out the door. This has NEVER happened.That dog was hell-bent on getting out the closest door she could. But she knows she has always gone out the back door.Never has she gone out the front. (We have another pit female out in the front. If these two girls ever came face to face. It would be a fight to the death) But she was heading out the front door full force, as it was the closest to her. Marty and I both think whatever is in our home, must have terrorized her for the time we were gone. Makes me so sad.That is more than I can take. I will pay for a sitter or board my dogs next time. This will not be allowed to happen again. I let her down completely.
