Heir raising moment -spooky or what ?!?

Hi IgorStrav

I always get that feeling in my hallway, its probably because of what happened though. But I always feel as if someone is behind me, I do get terribly scared at night going to bed, sometimes even running up the staircase, just incase Yet I know there's nobody there, I think our minds play tricks on us.
But who knows...

I have seen our former residents at work. The best thing to do is just say hello.

When I was first on my own after many years of marriage (divorce), I got myself a little loft apartment and was having a kip on the bed on a Sunday afternoon, and just in that drowsy period before you fall asleep I felt somebody patting my back and it was so REAL!!  I was too spooked to turn over right away but when I did of course nobody was there, so I ran all over the place opening doors and cupboards even under the sink lol.  I sometimes now wonder if it was my dad trying to comfort me because I did feel very soothed until my brain switched on!!

Think some of us have experienced something in our life, whether it is our minds playing tricks or not.  As a child I always felt I was being watched, but no one was there, my name being called and no-one there.   The day before my mother's funeral I was having a lie down and just nodding off, to hear my name being called urgently.   It wasn't Mr KHP as I could see him out on the farm and the kids were at school.    Since that day the "voice" has remained silent.   My friends have suggested that my late father had decided that it was time that he had Mum back in his life and his looking after me in the background had terminated.

Cheers

After some years in a home, with dementia, my mum sadly died. My dad had devotedly visited her every day, and since she didn't know who he was, showed his ongoing love by making her a tiny jam sandwich each day (bread cut really thin, carefully buttered, then spread with just the right amount of jam, and cut into quarters)

We had all gathered round his house after her death and my family had just been saying to each other "poor Arthur", when, left on my own for a moment I heard, clear as a bell in my ear, my mother say - "poor Arthur? What about ME?"

It was just the thing she would have said 

I wish I could hear her again. But I suppose I do every day in me.

That's a beautiful memory to share with us IgorStrav 

My father passed away four years ago this week. Everytime I visit my mum and walk in the lounge I see his armchair and hear him in his northern accent, as if he was there " Alright Claire luv ? "
 He's not there, but I always hear him.

In 1999 when I started researching my family tree, my Sister and I went to St. John's Nfld. where my Father was born, to meet cousins and do research on the Paternal line...whilst looking for accommodation on the internet, I kept being drawn to the same quaint and very English looking B&B and decided that was where I would like to stay. When we arrived and explained the nature of our visit, the Landlady told us there was a very large Cemetery next door that would probably have some of our ancestors buried there. During a conversation with the landlady I learned that their Golden Retriever was called "Avalon" which was the name of the training ship my father was on in WW2.
The next morning I got up really early on a cold December morning and decided to take a look around the cemetery whilst waiting for my Sister to come down for breakfast...when I reached the door...the dog tried to follow me and the landlady said let her go with you, she's very intuitive and will look after you.
I hadn't been looking at gravestones long when I noticed that Avalon wasn't beside me...I then heard her barking and when I went to her she was sitting on my Grandparents grave wagging her tail...I fussed her and hugged her and sat a while on the curb surrounding the double grave hardly believing what the dog had done...then the dog went dashing off, took a rose out a stone pot on another grave and dropped it in my lap.
 That dog slept outside my bedroomed door every night whilst I was there..even the owner couldn't believe it
