That's a very interesting post. I once lived in a very old (200+ years) cottage that had many paranormal goings on. Many people experienced various
things and I eventually left after 4 years because the main entity (for want of a better description had stopped hassling me and had moved onto my
(then) 11 yr old daughter.
I never tried to capture any evp's or take photos, recordings or anything like that but I had a really weird experience that lasted for the duration
of my stay in the cottage. It started one night, a few months after I had moved in when I started to think about a woman who had disappeared,
presumed murdered several years before in a location a couple of hundred miles from where I lived. I had absolutely no connection to this person at
all, and though her disappearance had made headlines at the time it was nearly a decade since she had vanished. As such it was quite strange to
suddenly have the image of this woman and her name going round and round in my head. Furthermore, it was like I was getting information about her,
where she was buried (her body has never been found) and a piece of jewelry that would identify her and her killer. I was getting really strong
visions about this and I could not understand why. I have no knowledge of the location that I was being shown just that it was in a quarry that was
still in use, but I was being shown exactly where her body and the jewelry was located.
Obviously I kept it to myself, because, as someone else on the thread mentioned, they didn't want to seem like a loony, but it became so pressing I
eventually told my mother, who is very sceptical, but rather than laugh at me, she was quite concerned and told me I had two choices, one was to
contact the police and tell them what I was "seeing" or to just tell the woman (or whatever the entity was that was giving me the info) to just go
away, I couldn't help them. I chose the latter.
Although it carried on until I left, I consciously made a point of saying, Sorry ****** I can't help you whenever the images came into my head and
they did reduce at bit. Once I left the cottage though, it never happened again. I only remember the case now because of the weird experience I had.
But I often wonder why me? I didn't invite it and she had nothing to do with me or the area I was living in. However, in hindsight, I wonder if the
main entity in the house had anything to do with it. It seemed very powerful and gave one of my friends a real fright one night and he never came
back, it also didn't seem like a standard haunting type thing, although there was loads of other standard type stuff, footsteps, banging etc going on,
but this thing was different, it made a marked difference to the temperature and the cat we had would literally run out of the house as soon as the
presence arrived.
Don't know, but perhaps something a lost soul could attach to and try to be heard by a living person..seeing as I as a resident of the house was a
captive audience so to speak.
Weird stuff anyway and I will never forget it.
