Answer 3

this happens to people all the time, they just shrug it off. It does not have to be in a building. It has happened to me walking down the street, I have passed people, turned to look and they are gone , all in the space of 1 or 2 seconds. Like i said, most people shrug it off as an illusion, that they are seeing things, or their imaginations.

Answer 4

It is very common you have been visited by a ghost, spirit, demon, poletgiest, whatever you would like to call it. Here are some tips :

(1. Talk to the previous (if thier is) owners of the house to see if they have had any paranormal experinces.

(2. Research if anyone died in the room or house.

(3. Find out who it is if you see if someone died in the house or if someone died who lived in the house.

That is what I would do if I saw a ghost sitting in a chair. And I know how freaked out you must be by this....

Answer 5

research house maybe somebody died there

Answer 6

I have had that happen to me, it was a really beautiful gal about 18 to 20 years old.  The people that lived in the house said they had seen her before too.

Answer 7

omg sounds scary. one time i opened my closet and a lady was in there

Answer 8

We were watching some home movies we took at my inlaws house. When we were watching..my mother in law said.."Who is that lady???" There was someone in the movie that none of us knew.

  One time my husband astral traveled. (He didn't know what astral travel was.) He woke me up and said he saw an old lady come out of the closet. He said she scared him so bad that he 'd never try to do that again!! I wonder now if our house was haunted. (This was a different house from the first one.) (Maybe that lady followed us???)

Answer 9

I didn't believe until 3 years ago when we moved into this house. The house had been empty for at least 20 years. Soon after we moved in, I saw a little girl standing by the side of the bed. A few weeks later, I saw another little girl, maybe 5 years old, wearing a tattered light colored dress. Her hair was blonde and it was chopped kind of sort, I wouldn't say cut, because it was dishelved.

Then there were the cats. Yep, I kept seeing cats all over the house. I have an orange outside cat. One morning, around dawn, I saw an orange cat outside my door, about 12 feet away, he was washing his leg. I called my cat's name, but this cat didn't even look my way. I opened the door and started walking towards the cat, calling his name, thinking he must be sick because he always comes when called. About 6 feet away, he started getting fuzzy, and by the time I reached the spot he was, there was no cat.

Interestingly, my own cat never goes in the backyard. He'll hang out in my neighbor's yard, but not mine. He will hang out in my front yard, just not the back. The one time I saw him in the backyard, was a couple of weeks after we moved in. I saw him in the distance and called his name and at the moment he came running to the door, so did a black and white cat, from the right. The black and white cat got there first, and scared the freak out of my cat.  My cat ran off, but there was no black and white cat when I looked down.

A couple of months ago I was talking to my next door neighbor. I apologized for my cat always hanging out in her backyard. It was really the first time I spoke to her, we keep different hours. Anyway, she kinda laughed and said it was ok, she was used to all the cats. I was kind of puzzled, because I only have the one, and there are no other cats on our side of the block. She said that many years ago, before I moved in , there was a lady who lived in my house, and she had a ton of cats, and there always seemed to be an orange one. I think she thinks she's seeing real cats, but I believe they  must be ghost cats because of the serious lack of cats around here.

Another weird thing, last year, my daughter and I were by the train station. We went to the 7-11, and as we passed by a bush we just passed a few moments before on the way to the 7-11, we saw this orange cat in the bushes. He meowed at us and I could tell he was really skinny. He came right to me, and I petted him a moment before running back to the 7-11 to get a box. He had no problem with me stuffing him in a box and taking him home. He was so skinny, I thought he might now make it. He was about 6 or 7 months old, and you could put the fingers of one hand around his tummy area. He fattened up nicely and is the nicest sweetest most loving animal I have ever owned.

Weird how orange cats are so attracted to this house.
