I moved into my house 3 years ago, but I noticed something eerie at my 10th slumber party. The night before, I had a nightmare in which a grim, looming figure appeared out of our basement wall, and came toward us partiers. I thought it was just nerves, so i tried to shake it off. But then on the night of the party, we all suddenly woke up and the TV flashed on and off. Then my best friend saw and discribed the figure from my dream. I hadn't told her about it. Ever since then, all the rooms in the house except the room that an old lady died in have an eerie, looming, even threatining presence in them. I have nightmares about the rooms and voices are heard at night. I never see anything but i strongly sense them to the point that i can visualize it in my head (in my room.) it looks like a young girl, with a white dress, but a look of hate so strong on her face that i cannot describe it. It paralyzes me. My 19 year old brother feels the same. What should we do?
lobrobster: people like you are the reason that they grow up to be such things.
I was just trying to be nice and console a "supposedly" 12 year old girl who is dumb enough to believe that her house might be haunted. She responded by calling me a moron. Kids that dumb shouldn't grow up to breed. With any luck, the ghost will get her well before that happens! -lol
Because I have an IQ above 68? Because I was educated beyond the 4th grade? Take your pick.
Now why do YOU think ghosts DO exist?
Wow, we have something in common, I have an IQ higher than 68 and also was educated beyond 4th grade. I KNOW that ghosts exist because I have felt their presence.

You "felt" their presence, huh? A thousand jokes come to mind, but I'll refrain from making fun of you. What kind of presence? What evidence do you (think) you have for the existence of ghosts? More importantly, what's it like to live in a reality where you believe these "things from beyond" exist? Do they watch you shower? Can they make you get into a traffic accident? Do you blame them for having a bad day? Also, do you believe in astrology? Something tells me you do.
Regardless of what your education level is (and I'd bet a large sum of money you're not a post-graduate of any kind...), you're not a rational or logical thinker. And if you're IQ is higher than 68, I'd bet more money that it's not above 120. Wow! How can I be so bold to say that about someone I don't even know? Because intelligent, educated people are simply not gullible enough to believe in ghosts! Why? Because there's not a single shred of evidence for their existence!
And I'm sorry but a college education does not make you intelligent....I have met many people that have graduated from college and are just plain retarded. I am an Ophthalmic Technician and have gone to school for two years....
And my IQ is 137, thank you. And yes, I do believe in Astrology.
I don't think calling someone a moron helps the situation any.
I did not call her (or abigail) a moron. Or are you talking about the little brat who called ME a moron?
I'm simply suggesting that you need to suspend logic to belief in this kind of stuff. And it constitutes a gullibility that is almost always absent from critical thinkers.
Oh my... And what evidence is there against invisible green gremlins living beneath the earth? Or pink unicorns, or... You are proving my point about critical thinking (or lack thereof). It is obvious you cannot prove a negative and your statement above is simply unimpressive.

Thought so (about the astrology part). How did I know? I must have ESP!
Your two sentences are almost oxymorons. But I guess you can claim whatever you want through anonymity of the internet. I won't call you a liar though. If you really do have a 137 IQ you are extremely rare to believe things which require a complete suspension of logical thinking. You're a rare bird indeed. Good luck with it.
