Poll question: Early Halloween poll - do you think your home is haunted?
For me, no. All my houses have been ghost free.

1. Note of clarification - the option of not haunted may include 2 groups
Those who believe in the potential for haunting, but simly do not believe it to be the case with their current house (including myself); and those who reject all haunting - and necessarily that of their home.

4. For purposes of this poll, the..
"reject all haunting one" doesn't need to be put on. But thanks for the clarification.

5. I heard it again last night
Edited on Sat Oct-01-05 02:31 PM by u4ic
It sounds like there is talking downstairs...I can hear some voices - it's indistinct what's being said, quite muffled, but it sounds like a small party, or some people mingling.

It doesn't scare me...in fact, it hadn't happened in a while, and had forgotten about it until last night. It's most often very late at night (or technically, very early in the morning, after 1am) but I have heard it in the day, as well.

This morning's episode was over an hour (2-3 am). The chatter may fade for a minute or two, and then resume.

It's definitely not coming from outside.

I don't know what it is. I'm not a diehard skeptic, I have an open mind, but don't always jump to the conclusion that it's ghostly activity. However, I know what the 'normal' sounds of the house are, and this isn't one of them.

7. Not haunted...yet, for 30 years it was a.....
..very active rental...I bet if the walls, here, could talk... it would make for some interesting stories.

We peeled 4 layers of wall paper off the kitchen walls and when we got down to sheet rock...one wall had a gigantic peace symbol painted on it....:-)

9. I've heard a voice twice and seen someone once.
I don't think that really counts as my house being haunted, though, but may have been someone passing through.
