Ghost Story: 2001 visitation repeated in 2015?
We arrived home late on Wednesday in March 2015, after being away
for almost a week. I had a paranormal experience just moments after we arrived
back, while I was disarming the house alarm at our bedroom door. Now… in the
past, and I'm talking about somewhere in 2001 (I’ve lived next door to that
house, or in that house, since 1980) and there has always been increased
activity in this house whenever we have been away.
2001
In 2001 I arrived home after being away
for almost two weeks. I arrived pretty quietly, no banging of doors or major
noise. I walked up my passage and turned into my bedroom (the first of two
passage doors on the left side)
I walked into the room and stopped in my
tracks, in front of me was a young man - about my height 1.73m / 5.10 - if you
ever watched That 70's Show you will be able to imagine how he was
dressed. Oxford
Of course, I thought it was an intruder
and my first thought was to scream to draw the attention of my neighbours. The
man looked up in fright as if I had startled him - and disappeared.
I ran to my mother's house next door and
told her what I had seen. She then told me the 'story' of the house I was
staying in...
In the 60’s there was a couple living there, a male couple. Now in
South Africa during that time it was not ‘ok’ for same sex couples to live
together openly, these two males lived with each other but as ‘room mates’ -
only the neighbour knew the truth about them, due to the houses being so close
together. By the time my family moved into
the house in the 1970’s and early 80’s (there are two houses joined together on
one property) these two men were long gone.
When I ran to my mother’s house to tell her what had happened, she
told me what the neighbour had told her years before.
This same sex couple were very tempestuous – they fought. A lot. One
night the old neighbour heard them really fighting badly, the fight escalated
until there was silence. The following morning when she was hanging out her
washing she noticed a long stretch of the garden out back had been dug up, the
one guy was filling it with concrete that he was mixing up. He then filled up
the hole. The neighbour wanted to say something but it was obvious that this
guy was a bit of a … murderer? And so, she always suspected that Guy number 2
was buried in the back garden. He was never seen again at the house after that
night. I had never understood why my mother refused to put in a pool… she was
afraid of digging up the body or the concrete tomb with the body inside it!
Fast forward to 2015
We arrive back home late at night, about 9pm or so after being
away for a week. I opened our front door and made my way quickly into the
passage to disarm the alarm. The alarm pad is in the passage to the right of the
bedroom door (where I saw him before) and this time – without me really
thinking about that incident or anything, there was major shuffling of ‘things’
in my room. It sounded like when someone is rushing to answer the phone and has
to step over things, papers etc to get there. I thought straight away that my
cat had somehow been locked up inside the house – but she sauntered up the
passage at that moment so I knew it wasn’t her.
No fans were on. No lights were on. Something definitely moved
across my room. Either towards or away from me. It took a full few seconds for
me to realise what had happened, my heart rate hitched up a few notches and I
ran from the house to tell my husband.
When I returned to the house in 2009 after a few years away, there
was so much activity in the house that I didn’t feel safe anywhere. I felt the
presence of this spirit in my room mainly, among others. When I was brave
enough we held a prayer time and the house cleared for two and a half years. I
say that because the day I brought my newborn home in 2010 the spirit returned
with her. We prayed again and asked politely for the spirit to leave for as long
as we were living there. We felt an immediate change in the house. One morning
soon after, I was feeding my baby in the lounge – it was early but the sun was
just up. I heard a knock on the front door, I walked over and opened it – no one
was there. I sat down and immediately the knock sounded again, polite but firm.
I realised in my spirit that it was this same spirit. (It is NOT a menacing
entity it seems quite sweet but still scares me!) I spoke out loudly and
clearly, stating that I appreciated his good manners but that we really
preferred for him to stay outside.
I have felt the spirit a few more times – between the hours of
10pm and about 2am my built in cupboard in my bedroom shifts as if someone is
climbing up the shelves or pulling on the doors. I am often wide awake and
reading when this happens, the area I live in has mild temperatures so it isn’t
the building ‘settling’ at all.
When I did some steam / boiling water ITC last year I felt that I
had captured his face. I recognised him from 2001!
Have you had similar experiences?
