Clock Tower is a sweet game
.
Anyways, my house is freaky as hell. It was built in the 1880's I believe and the person who lived here before was a real nut case and swore the house was haunted. I've had my share of ghost experiences many times in this house and I can testify that some of these cases (like seeing a actual ghost) were before I even knew about the previous owner being crazy about them, though I knew she was an odd person when I first met her.
The usual ghost case I seem to get is objects falling out of no where (once even a very strong and stury bookshelf that had been up for months just collapsed out of no where while I was in the room using the computer), the sounds of people walking up and down the staircase when no one is there, various creak/walking sounds, and more recently, the feeling of someone actually standing on the top steps of the stairway when walking up it at night (one night I SWORE someone was there and I even said "Whoa, excuse me" until I noticed no one was actually there).
For the time I actually did see a ghost, it was around 1am. As I turned the corner to enter the kitchen, straight dead on two rooms away I see a light-like, ghostly figure floating in the middle of the room. My body felt as if it were just stunned in place and I stared at this object for some seconds, until it started to slowly float away to the left until I couldn't see it anymore because the wall covered it's vision. I was way too freaked out to go in there and look around, so I made my way up to my bedroom as I originally planned.
Now here's the freaky part about this. I later found out from my mom and brother who commonly talked to the previous owner because this house was kind of a big part of her life, that this woman was so crazy about ghosts that she actually sprayed holy water on the walls in the room where I saw the ghost. The reason for this? Because it happens to be known that the room I saw the ghost in was actually built ON TOP of a very small graveyard back from the 1800's or earlier. My town is very old and we have quite a few graveyards around and they aren't far apart.
I described the ghost as "light-like", because it seemed like the figure was made of light. The reason why I don't think it actually was light was because it's shape seemed something impossible to make with light from the light source and windows in the room, this figure as I like to call was a bit distored human shape, it had a more pointed head, arms that kind of swayed to the right side, and no legs, but a tail kind of thing that swayed to the right side. When I examined the room, I checked the windows and looked for any light source that could have caused this. Because of how the windows were placed, no light goes directly straight ahead into the window, instead the light source is located to the right of the window, which means it couldn't have caused this figure to make it's arms and tail sway to the right, it would have to be to the left because of this.
When the figure moved to the left, you could assume it was a car that caused this. Because of the time, cars usually aren't driving at this time and when they are, the go faster than how the light was actually moving and it must've stopped right before my house for awhile. I do not recall any cars during this sighting, I think I would've known about them.
There are many ghost-reported experiences in my town, I even knew a kid who would talk to the previous owner of my house before I moved in and he talked about ghost stuff with her before. Very freaky indeed.
