How can I tell if my house is haunted?

Weird things have happened off and on the past 4 years we've lived in our house. It was terrible at first. Terrible dreams about the house, about bodies buried in the walls. It felt like there was a male spirit present at times, not a good one but maybe wanting to scare us? My daughter, for the first year, wouldn't go down the hallway by herself (5yrs old at the time) and would hate to even spend time in her room alone during the day. One time came running to us, saying her tv cord started jumping all around by itself. We got a dog 2 years ago. She is sometimes jumpy for no reason and hates to sleep alone as well. But it seems the spirit (feeling, whatever) is easier to handle since we've had our dog. How can we tell, for sure, if our place is haunted?

Well I think that God may be trying to get your attention. I dont know your religion or if you attend a church but I do recommend finding one. It may seem crazy or weird but it works.

I saw your post, I do not live in Southern Ca. I live in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl. but, bought a house built in 1941 in Gainesville, Fl. 2 1/2 years ago, I am renting it out at this time. I plan to move there in Sept. 2007. I had stayed there a few nights over a month or two visiting the house before it was rented out, cleaning etc..I had the most erie feeling there that there was something or someone in the house with me. I had not said anything to anyone about it, but have been a little afraid to move into the house in Sept. The renters just sent me some photos on line of some of the rooms in the house and there are white globes in a couple of the shots. I got a very strong feeling that the photos had captured some spirit or spirits. I haven't asked the couple renting the house if they had any unusual experiences or feelings. They are very religious and I don't want to freak them out. Before they move out I will ask. I had lost a brother who was 15 when I was 2 years old...I always, always felt his presence and even saw him behind me in a mirror when I was 15. However, his presence disappeared the day my mother died. I have for years before my mom died and after "heard" when I go to bed on occasion "mumbling" of crowds of people, sometimes laughter, sometimes sounds like a game show on tv, funny thing when I get out of bed it disappears. I asked my younger son if he had the tv on when I first heard it, he said no but that he heard the sound too on some nights..No neighbors nearby, no way the sound came from someone else. We were living in another house built in 1940, thought maybe that had something to do with it, but it has happened again several times in a new apartment we are in now. Again not the neighbors...Do you know anyone in Gainesville, Fl. who may be able to search my house? Thank you, Lin and Good luck with the project.

OK, I seriously think that I have a Spirit in my house at night. By day it's gone, but by night I start hearing noises and it scares me a lot. We have a hallway that leads to where everyone in my family sleeps, and there is the bathroom at the end of the hallway. Last night I woke up from a "Ghost dream" and I all of a sudden heard a mad shaking of the door from the bathroom. Like the spirit was shaking the door to make it come off! My brother and I are the only ones who heard this, my brother said that this has been like this for a week and I only heard it last night, but I believe him. I heard it 1 more time before I decided to get up and take a peek on what the heck might be going on. I looked around the corner and there it was. The door was being shook but no one was there. I know I had nothing to be scared of because Spirits and ghosts can't do any harm to you, but it still gives me the creeps. Maybe the Spirit keeps doing it to let us know it's there. I want to try and talk to it, but I don't know what to do seeing this is my first time encounter with a ghost or Spirit, so please, someone tell me what I should do. I don't want to rammage the Spirit out of my home because I have a feeling it's someone we know, or just someone who is trying to get attention somehow, but I need help on this situation because I can't seem to figure out why it keeps shaking the bathroom door when it's closed. Help?!

maybe sum paranormal investigators can come to your house. If they catch sumthing, they can let u know. Or you can take pics in your house where u think a presence may linger. Use a digital camera it comes out better well hopefully this will help. -Spidey

I've been recently wondering if my house is haunted. Right when school got out, I got these strange dreams. When I dream I'm usually a participant, I go around in do things. But in most of these, I was just watching, like it was a show on T.V. I didn't like these dreams, the reasons why varied on the dreams. In fact, there was only one constant thing throughout the dreams. That was an intense feeling I had in the dream. It felt like frustration. I wasn't frustrated over anything at the time during my day to day life.

Then after about 4 days the dreams stopped, but I started hearing a noise. It sounds like something is being dropped on my nightstand. Something round and metallic. It sounds like it is bouncing then stops. However, it only lasts for a few seconds. It happens once each night while I'm trying to fall asleep, well it happened twice one night. It always happens when I'm turned away from my nightstand. My house has always made sounds, creaks, groans, etc. sounds that have always been attributed to the house settling. There are normal sounds that I hear every night, but no sound has ever just started like this. Other members of my family hear sounds too. My sister and mom hear something that sounds like footsteps on the roof each night. Once my sister heard a shotgun go off right by her head, loud enough to make her ears ring. She attributed to it being a dream, but I thought I'd include it.

It's not uncommon for things to randomly disappear around my house, but the number of times thats happened has increased drastically in the last year or so. Sometimes the item missing will reappear a while later, but recently, they haven't.

Occasionally I'll feel like I'm being watched, but I've gotten that feeling all my life, always when I'm alone so I don't think thats related to any possible haunting.

There isn't much else, really. No lights flickering, no T.V. turning on and off, no spiritual appearances. I was wondering if my house is actually haunted, or if it can be attributed to something in my daily life, like stress.

Oh, my house was built by my parents, so there isn't a problem with someone dieing in the house, I live in the country, so it wouldn't be any neighbors playing pranks, because I don't have any. And the sound occurs no matter what time I try to fall asleep. My room is usually 5-10 degrees hotter or cooler than the rest of the house too, and the heater and air conditioner work sporadically in my room. Oh, my cat used to sleep on my bed every night, but a little before the dreams ended, she stopped.

Could I get someone else's opinion on this? I'm not very religious, and the spirit, if there is one, hasn't bothered me except for the sound. I'm mainly curious.

This is of QQApple...here is that Bible verse you were looking for


Passage Mark 5:13:

13And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand and were choked in the sea.
