Hello to everyone, and thank you in advance for any help or insight you may provide. My family and myself have lived in our present home for almost ten yrs. Now. Things were good for the first six months. To yr. Only one insident that "scared" me, upon coming from the store as a new homeowner I went upstairs to the mstr. Bdrm. And there was an inpression of a body on the bed spread. I know this sounds "kooky" but I am a real clean freak and we don't sit on the beds once made. I muat note that no one was home while we were gone. As time went on things in the home became more and more tense, personalities changed for the worse, anger, tension, etc... My middle daughter has seen the siloutte of two men at a café table and chairs at the end of her bed on and off for sometime now in the evening. For the most part this does not scare her, but confuses her, she hears low whispers from them, amongst themselves. My eledes daughter when occupying the up-stairs bedroom, different than her sisters, would often experience the vision of an elderly man looking over her in bed, this did not scare her but rather made her uncomfortable. There is more with behavior change in the home that I hope I can get into at another time. I would like to ask a question now, I am recently finding, almost daily coins around the house and today a ring appeared in the master bdrm. That does not belong to any family member or friend. What does this mean? Last summer flowers were blooming in places that they were never planted and those that we did plant previous years, were now blooming different colors. I apologize for the length of this, but I am becoming increasingly frightneed in this home. I hope some one can provide me with any answers, Thanks to all VgigiC

They say that sometimes just telling ghosts to cross over and go to the light will get rid of them.
You can also try getting a Priest, pastor or somebody that will bless your house with oil, holy water and/or sea salt.

If at any point you are scared my neighbors aunt used to tell her and I to act as if you are zipping a sleeping bag. Only zip it all around you body. Then when you are home alone say
"Ok it has been great having you here but I think its time for you to go, Give he/she/them enough time to go from the farthest point in your house to the door. That is what my neighbor did when she first moved in.

Hi, Thanks for the reply. But I am not sure my home has ghosts, yet things do point in that direction. I have told the "spirits" to please leave. It seems that the local priests from the parish will not come and bless this home or a few others in the court. The nick name from others in the area, not the court thourgh, for this culdesac is "hell court" really. I have blessed the house with holy water and prayed while doing so. I also burned sage from room to room while praying, the sage smoked most in my middle daughters room. I have more to tell, but really want to know if there is any significance to the coins I have found and the ring I found today in the mstr. Bdrm. It looks like a very small engagement ring, small stone. Please help, I have tried to contact the previious owners and they have "hid" themselves rather well. The wife left very early morning before the rest of the family. Hope to hear back soon, please
Thanks vgigic

Why is your cul de sac called hells corner? Do others have strange things happening too or did your neighbors earn the name?

All I could find on coins and rings was good luck in superstition.

Truthfully, I feel doing something like closing myself up (or suggesting this to the kids) is firghtening. It is at the point where I have a hard time being alone a lot of days here, and have heard doors slamming open and closed. Recently I was afraid to leave the mstr. Bthrm. When home alone, felt I would find "something" on the other side of the door. I finally did open the door, and found nothing. Let me know if u know anything about finding the coins and ring. Thanks,

The court earned its name from what I have been told due to the hostility among some neighbors who have been here long before we moved in. Also I have been told that many of the neighbors became sick with cancer and either passed or have moved away while in remission. Yes as far as other strange occurrences, after I move into the home I found a dead bolt was on the mstr. Bedroom door. Seemed very strange even if parents want "alone: time away from the kids a simple lock would have done. Also the older son had a bdrm in the basement where my older daughter now "lives" he had a bible by his bed. There were crucifixes over every bed. I know in my mom's time this was the thing, we are roman catholic. But the people we bought from also catholic were younger and this was not the norm. I was once able to contact the husband after we moved in and he confided that the kids, his, are no longer sick and all doing well and happy now. He would not elaborate further on the subject. Please let me know what you think and what the coins I am finding mean and the ring I found today in the mstr. Bdrm. Thanks so much. My middle daughters behavior is out of control, total personality change, not just the teen years here. Thanks vgigic

It might help to get a puppy. They are good at warning and so forth.

We have a dog, we got her about six years ago, she is adorable. There are times she just stares and barks in the evening on the main level looking up the stairs to the bdrm.

The behavior change is one reason it sounds paranormal to me.
I did hear about a sub division that was built within the past few years that they said is having strange things occurring and nobody wants to talk about it. I am pretty sure it was somewhere like Colorado or Nevada maybe.

There might be something in the area that links why so many are getting cancer you might want to try and figure that out too.

Hi again,

Do you really feel we have a ghost/s in the house? What kind of spirit would this be? I often wonder if this is left over some how from the previous owners. Thanks, vgigic

What do u mean good luck? And who is sending this luck, any clue. I have heard in the past that found coins are messages from family who has past, have you ever heard this? Also the flowers blooming where they never have or in different colors, I was told once from a friend it is a message from a relative who have passed. Have you heard this? Is there a significance in the kind of ring? Sorry for all the questions I am just at the end of my rope now. Thank you for the help. vgigic

I have no idea about the rings and coins. What kind of coins and what are the dates on them?
I don't know if you have ghosts but it sounds like some kind of paranormal stuff and for the people before to do the things you said it doesn't sound 'normal'
Are there any neighbors that you can ask if anything strange happens at their house?

I try to distant myself from the neighbors here, those that seemed overly friendly at first anyhow. They all had horrible mean things to say about the people who lived in my home. They were mostly mean, gossipy things, "they had no money, they were overweight, their dog died. I agree the way the previous owner left was not normal, I was able to talk to the mother in law of the wife who lived here once on the phone. it was about three yrs or so ago, she didnt want to devulge to much info. but told me to tell my husband how unhappy i was and sell the house and go! She did state that she loved this home and so did her son and wife. When I asked what happened here, she said very sterm but sympathetic "I can't tell you that". I was upset to say the least. Thanks again

Yes, about the cancer. We live in a culdesac and from what I am told the water lays in the lines at the end (we live at the end). This is not good and there are times the hydrants have to be flushed because of sediment and rusty looking water. What ever way they flush these lines we still get the "bad water". The link could be here in the water, but the water company refuses any blame. Thanks vgigic

I hope you are buying bottled water for drinking and cooking then.
You would think Osha or whoever could get after them.

We do use bottled water. In fact we don't want the girls to take baths in this water, I know this may sound ridiculous to some. We have the home up for sale now. I truly believe there is at least some bad "karma" here in the home. Things happening, personality changes and total bad luck. It is time to go and we have thought long and hard about this decision. It feels right now to go. Going after the water company will take years many have complained. I am just curious to know what went on with the old owners of the home, and why they left the way they did. I have tried a search of the area for any "unusual" happenings and can't find anything. Thanks vgigic

That is good you can get out. Hope you do it asap.

Thanks, we are agressivly (sp) marketing the home now. It is a shame, we had such high hopes for this house. We viewed it as our "dream" home but, it has turned into a virtual nightmare! There has been sickness here with us, I have had serious back problems since moving in and have been hospitilized numerous times. Our business went from very profitable to a real strain, and by the grace of God we were able to hold on and sell it. All but one of our children has had such personality changes it is incredible, from loving to very angry and this has nothing to do with the change with the business. They can at times become their "old" loving, kind selves, very sad. My H also, experienced more than a mid life crisis and again through a lot of pray and help he is pretty much his old self again.All of these things are totally out of character for us and quite scary. The door slaming and "shadowing" this just started has really taken a toll on us. I sometimes think that maybe the coins, if they mean a message from a relative who has passed and the flowers blooming where there were never before are signs to move on now. Any other advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, I am very tired had a bad experience with one of my daughters today and really just want to try and rest. Talk to you tomorrow thanks , vgigic

Dear NoHelp,

Do you know of anyway I could find out if anything "strange" has happened in this house with any of the previous owners? Most of the neighbors who still live here only knew the people before me. As I have said before they were only to fast to make "fun" of them, so therefore they never did any confiding in them about the house. I do know however that the woman who lived here before me would use a PO box rather than regular mail delivery, saying that mail was missing from the box. When I did speak to any of the neighbors about the family before me they did say the wife did complain about things missing from the home. Since I have been here come to think of it I can't find very expensive sunglasses, a designer wallet(box left empty, never used) and a pair of coach slippers are missing. I didn't think to mention this last night to you, I was more concerned with the coins and ring that I found. Thanks for the help. vgigic

I have heard that coins, jewellery, missing things, are relatives trying to show you that they are watching over you, and trying to give you a sign. Have you ever read any of Sylvia Brownes books? She has a lot of them, but there are a few that might help with your particular problem. I don't know the exact names of the books that would help, but I believe her website is www.sylviabrowne.org

I have also heard of ghosts that think THEY live there, and YOU are intruders. Tell them that they are DEAD, and they should go towards the light, and they will be at peace there. Keep on telling them that they're dead and that they are no longer welcome in your home. I've also heard that if you spread a ring of salt all around the outside of your home, that this will help.

I'm not sure how much of this I believe (not to say I don't believe you) but I know there are some strange occurrences, because I've experienced some myself. I find strange things happening on my computer that can't be explained away, things that move from one spot to another when I absolutely know I haven't moved it, phone calls with a message that is garbled and when I check out the phone records there has been no recorded call, and so on.

Try checking out one of those books and see if you can find any help there.

Starbuck,

Thanks for the reply. I understand about the things appearing being a sign from relatives, have heard this before myself. I wonder though, a sign of what? Is it something to be careful of, time to move on, etc.. I have tried telling whatever may be present here, to please move on, this is our home now. I have prayed on this also and have burned sage from room to room, while praying. Sometimes I think "they" have won so to speak. I say this because we sold the business and are in the process of selling the home. Just too much to bear with all the tension and illness this has brought on, living in the home I mean. I will check out Sylvia's site. Appreciate any other info./advice you have. Thanks! vgigic

Just from what I've heard and read, I don't think the coins etc. are a warning. Just more of a sign that they are around and trying to protect you. (if that makes sense... I don't know how else to put it) As far as I know, just from what I've heard, ghosts or spirits really can't phyically hurt you, but they can invade your thoughts so much that you can hurt yourself, or begin acting strangely.

I only apparently have 'friendly ghosts', and find it quite amusing. That is why I started to read some of the books by Sylvia Browne and a few others. I was thinking of my Grandma one day and just joking around. I said outloud (actually while I was playing with my dog) "Grandma, I really miss your cooking, could you send me something?" ;), and then I said "while you're at it...can you fix my phone and computer please" --My phone and computer had been out for several days-- I kid you not, about a min. after I said it, my computer fired up and my phone rang. Nothing came up on my caller ID. Freaked me out just 'A BIT'! The repairman came the next day to try and fix my computer, and couldn't find anything wrong.

So, I don't know, maybe try talking out loud to someone you know who has passed and ask them for their help. You never know!

Starbuck,

Thanks again, makes me feel "okay" about a lot of what is going on. Yes, I do believe the "ghosts" are affecting the behavior, including mine of those here in the family. True the invading of thoughts has made all of us do and say things that are totally out of the "norm" for us. The result was pain, whether it be physical or emotional pain it was and is still there. I do believe as you say that the "objects" are signs and I want to believe they are spirits of those who have passed wanting to watch out for us and protect us from what is invading our home and possibly guide us to move on now. And-I do believe your experience of what happened with the computer and telephone!! Sometimes, I feel anyhow, that if you ask/pray with a whole pure heart for answers or even a sign you will receive it, I have had to a few times in the past yrs. Here and answers came to me in dream form. While I did not get it as first soon it all fell into place and made sense, with what was taking place at the time. Another time, out of nowhere this is where I say I believe about the invading of thoughts from a ghost/spirit my husband left the home angrily out of no where harsh words were said, out of character for this man and nothing previous prompted this action. Soon after he left a pen and pad was in the room where I was sitting, I don't know why but, I picked up both and just started writing. I wasn't thinking, like to write a story or anything. My hand just took over and I wrote!! It was "sloppy", not my usual penmanship, but nonetheless it was legible. I later read what I wrote and was surprised, confused and hurt. Weeks later when things calmed down a bit, and we were talking about the "exit" of his and all that goes on here I told him about the writing. I then showed it to him, and you know I was so on target with almost 100% of this. Good talking to you and hope to talk again, vgigic

You're welcome. I don't know how much help I was, but I am glad it put your mind at ease a little bit. I know what you mean with the dreams also.
Nice speaking with you too.

Best of luck and God Bless!

Starbuck,

Thanks again! I am glad you "know" what I mean regarding dreams I can't help but believe that if you pray hard enough with a pure heart, so to speak that God will hear and you will be provided with answers. Whether they come in the form of a dream, or random writing or disclosure from someone. The answers are there, it is just a matter of how persistent we will be or dedicated to finding the truth. Please by no means think I am some kind of religious "freak", I have a strong belief in Christ however. Hope more info. On the subject will follow. I wish there was a way to contact the previous owner and get her/him to some how confide in me with what their experience, good or bad was living in this home. Till next time... vgigic

No, I don't think you are a religious freak. I believe in God too. I told my story about my phone and computer to a few people, even some family members, and they thought I was totally off my rocker. It could have been a total coincidence, but that would be a real big one if it was.

The only other time I had something like that happen to me was just a few days after my Grandmothers funeral. I opened up a cupboard that was quite high up, and something that looked like sparkles, or glitter, seemed to come out of the cupboard. I didn't have any glitter, and there was nothing on the floor afterwards. My sister was right there and saw it too.
