You could find out who lived in the home from the tax records. Then when you have the family's name you could do some research through the local newspaper to see if there were any incidents such as a fire or a murder with the family name involved in the incidents.

Check with the local library and/or historical society (local or county). They often have house history files and even photos.

There is a way to 'bless' your home and make it your own. I'm Scottish and there were a lot of superstitions and old wives tales about this sort of thing while I was growing up. They say to put a penny under the carpet or the lino to bring good fortune to your home. Another one was to sprinkle salt along your door step to keep out unwanted visitors. And, if you are feeling brave, why not simply ask the 'disturbance' to leave.
