Spooky experiences while researching

Hee hee - noisy stag groups - I spect he really wants to join in.

My sister used to have a ghost in her flat in central London. We called her the Blue Lady. She was apparently a Jewish woman who'd lived there in the 1930s and had a little dachshund. She would walk up and down the corridor and sit in the ancestral rocking chair and in the spare bedroom. I never saw her but always sensed when she was about. Mum and sister used to see her though. About 15 years ago when I was staying there I woke up struggling for breath as if I was being strangled and there was this white haze above me. I couldn't speak but somehow jumped up and ran to sister's room. She and my niece got up. Sister then found a bible she'd had at her confirmation - white leather bound if I recall correctly. She went into the spare bedroom with me and niece cowering behind and told the woman what for (and she can really tell you what for !) and then read something from the old testament - a psalm i think. We then all slpt in sister's room.
She's not been seen since.

Have you tried "Orb hunting" Gadget?

Use a digi camera to take photos and spot the orbs (energy of the ghosts in orb form) When we have parties here (especially on New Year) there are hundreds of them. They love parties and get togethers.

Our main problem is that the hotel next door and this one used to be one building so there are still doors in the walls though many have been boarded over but as long as there is a link to the buildings they can come through. Next door take a lot of OAP'2 and many of them die while staying there (Great advert I know) but then we get them floating through to ours for a look.

Great fun when you have guests in and all of a sudden you hear someone say something about seeing someone or something. I just sit grinning. The guests always come back though so it can't be too bad can it?

My Mum and her sisters would love it Carol 
At Christmas time when the family were all together, they would sit up all night swapping ghost stories. Sister and I used to sit in the Hall and listen to them until it got too cold or they found us. They'd have a bag of chestnuts and a bowl of salt and cups of tea (not much booze in those days).
I remember one of them saying about someone coming down the path and through the door and stuff - 'he's coming to get me' and about going to spiritualist meetings and stuff.
Oh they're probably all at your place now - Mum in that sack dress and her sisters in their funny glasses and stuff 

Say Hello to them for me

I'm pretty sure we've got a ghost here.  It used to annoy the cat when she was alive, so I liked it a lot (I disliked that cat).
A few occassions I've woken up at night and seen a figure standing by my bed watching me.  Does nothing other than stand there watching over me.  It didn't start showing up until my Grandma died, so my Mum and I are sure it's her.  We we're really close, and we're sure she's there still looking after me.

Well, I still talk to my Mum and Dad even if i can't see them and when I'm feeling ill, I always want my Mum. Daft, I know but she was so super when we were ill.
