    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.
