I personally don't believe in "hollywood style" ghost.
I would say you probobly have a mouse, a bat, or other critter in your attic.
Could also be water pipes, steam lines, wind, anything.

And then, a bunch of roudy kids could have found a way into that attic.

No your house is not haunted.

The sounds could be carrying over from another apartment that is occupied- the more you think about ghosts, the more it will creep you out. Maybe a fan or the TV on low in your room will cover it up and help you relax. Your landlord should check it out just to give you piece of mind.

I will have to agree, I have been in "haunted" houses, things fly off shelves, figures by the door, motion detectors set off.
Smells of cigar smoke

And the one thing I have gotten in all of them, no voices, no sounds, except for doors opening and closing, or things hitting the floor.

Could also be a squeeky attic vent. I had that problem once in my old house. A little axle grease fixed it right up.

Yes Your House Is Haunted And Here's How I Know I Had A Séance In My House And I Had My Animals In There And They Bark And Hissed At Nothing So Yea

That really doesn't mean the house is haunted. It isn't a good idea to jump to conclusions and possibly scare Screamin. I don't get the connection between your pets and Screamin's thumps and bumps. He didn't mention pets.

There is no need in being scared of the supernatural. There are plenty of real life fears to contend with. As I said before, I don't believe in hauntings.

I did tresspass in an old abandoned house once when I was younger. It was up in the mountains. Actually it was an old nursing home from way back when. As if the snakes and fear of critters in the dark stone cellar didn't freak us kids out enough, we almost go caught by someone. I never drove moms stationwagon so fast on a dirt road. :)

Wish I still had the guts to do that stuff now. Too much responsibility now.

Just shut up pumibel

Well that wasn't very nice

It could be some of the things the other users have posted. As far as the faint voices, I am not sure about that one. Usually those things can only be picked up by meters used by Paranormal Investigators. If you have a local group or organazation that does this, you can contact them and see if they can check it out. If not, follow the advice of some of the other users and have the landlord investigate this for some sort of critter or piping problem.

I know it isn't nice but I'm protecting my thoughts

i do believe in spirits.

andrewcocke, that happened to me, except the old house is a block away from mine, I wtn in with a friend and a 3rd friend to guard the cellar door, and when we came back up, hr was gone, the one guarding the door, he stole my BMX bike

One way to know if your house is haunted is to find a phycic (I don't know how to spell it properly sorry) that can "speak" with spirits and ask her to check it out. Also ask your landlord if there has ever been any murdurs/suicides at night in that particular apartment.
