We moved into our house that was built in a cleared area known by older neighbours as the "Old Oak Woods" When I was pregnant, both myself, my husband and my mother and aunt heard a baby crying in the house. We were a little spooked. When my son was about 3 weeks old, we had visitors sitting in the living area. My son was in his cradle beside us but his baby monitor was still connected in his bedroom. We all heard a baby cry from his room even though he was asleep in front of us. When my son was less than three, he talked to us about Jack who played with him in his room. Jack was the naughty one who made all the mess. We asked him to describe him, which he did, along with his sister Sukie, brothers Mallie and Greg. He would look at me and say, "can you not see him Mum?". To this day I am still unsure if he had an imaginary friend or something more. He is now 18 and we chat about it sometimes but he doesn't remember it. On the positive side, there has never been a scary energy in our house, BUT, lots of shadows moving in the hallways. I see them regularly, and it doesn't bother me, but it has spooked a few babysitters over the years.
