Ghost Experiences. in the year 1995

Well, it all started about two years ago when my grandparents along with my mother and step-father decided to tell my younger sister and I about the ghost in their house, how when we were too young to understand we used to complain when we spent the night over our grandparents house about the dog jumping on our bed at night. Now that sounds all good and fine except for the fact that the dog had been dead about a year.
Soon after the stories that my sister and I regarded as a definite plot to "freak us out", my mother took up wallpapering and decided to re-paper my grandmothers bedroom.

My mom recounted the incident as this: Your grandmother was standing behind me when all of the sudden she began to laugh, when my mom curiously asked her what it was exactly she was laughing at my grandmother simply replied, "You just glued my ghost to the wall."

About that time, my mother wiped the excess glue from the wall onto her jeans and that is when strange things started to happen at my house. The t.v would cut on and off, the fan would go from high speed to off in a matter of seconds, doors would open and close, and my parents began to complain about feeling something crawling on their bed at night.

Then one night my parents came to me pale as a ghost, claiming that something had sat behind their two recliners and viciously growled to the point where it caused my step-father to carry a gun in our den if he was watching t.v alone.

Being the realist I was, I blew almost all of the claims off by making logical excuses, when it seemed that everyone else was walking on egg shells I was calm, until one night when I was alone in my room and for some reason I woke up to a slight tapping at my door.

I must have said "come in" at least twenty times, and when no one answered I fell back asleep assuming whatever that person wanted it was no longer needing my assistance. I would guess ten minutes later the tapping persisted. By this time I had figured someone was trying to play a trick on me, so I crept close to the door and when I heard the tapping I swung it open! Not a soul was there, I walked out of my room expecting to catch some one down the hall, but there wasn't anyone awake but me.

I decided to use the bathroom before returning to my disturbed slumber. I began to feel uneasy, then a nervousness I have never experienced swept over me as the bathroom lights flickered. Quickly I turned out the light and swung open the bathroom door and began slowly (for some reason) down the hallway towards my room.

I felt like I was being followed and curiosity caught me as I turned around to confirm my suspicion, not even an inch from my face stood a figure, it was not white or glowing, rather it was dark and cold, so cold I could feel my skin turn to goose bumps, I ran fast as I could into my sisters room and leaped on top of her, I remember the two of us clutching to each other after I had explained what happened. I guess that was the ghosts way of showing it was there and it was not imagination

I am a strong believer in ghosts. I have had too many things happen in my life to ignore what I know was real.
We lived in a house that was used during the Civil War as a hospital. The rooms were huge and the third floor was never used. Shutters covered every window on the third floor and added to the uneasiness of the place.
Strange things began happening from day one.
The first night we stayed in the house, we got a late start unpacking and setting up beds. It was decided all seven of our family members would sleep downstairs on the floor in the dining room. It was winter and the woodstove was located there. During the night I woke up due to the fact that someone was stepping over me and walking about the room. The woodstove had a glass front that allowed the flames to illuminate the room. I could not see anyone moving around, everyone else was asleep. I decided I was just tired from a long day of moving and didn't give it another thought.
Soon after we unpacked and set up the beds in the other rooms upstairs, everyone began having their own experiences with the unknown. Some heard people talking during the night and each of us had experiences with our name being called from other areas of the house where nobody was. One particular bedroom at night was filled with the faint sound of someone snoring. Nobody slept in the room at that time.
The most disturbing thing that I experienced myself, was one night I had a dream where I was being watched while I slept. I woke up and discovered the door that was shut when I went to bed was now open. I decided that a draft must have blowed it open or I just didn't shut the door all the way. After falling back to sleep with the door now latched, I had the same unusual dream of someone watching me as I slept and again I awoke to find the door that was locked was again open. I went down the hallway to see if someone was awake but found no one.
The experience I had was mild compared to the experiences my younger sister had. One night while asleep she was awakened by a little girl that climbed into bed with her and was shaking with fright. The fireplace in her bedroom was lit and a dark figure with glowing eyes was staring fiercely at he young girl. I need to add the fact that the fireplace in her room was never used and the front of the fireplace was covered completely with drywall. This same event happened twice with the young girl and the dark figure. My sister grew hysterical every time the scenario took place and refused to sleep upstairs the rest of the time we lived there.
We later found out from the neighbors that the widow lady who previously lived there by herself, often called them in the middle of the night claiming she was not alone in the house and begged them to let her stay with them until daylight. They had to make several trips to pick her up until she finally decided to move herself.
My sister to this day will not discuss what she witnessed without bursting into tears. She is married and has a teenage daughter, and her husband threatens us everytime he hears us discussing it with her.
The house is currently unoccupied and locked tight. Teenagers began daring each other to stay there all night and were caught by the owner throwing parties and vandalizing the property.
