Twenty three years ago when my husband
Charlie and I were first married we were looking for a
place to rent that was closer to where he
worked. Well we found a mobile home that was on a
piece of property with a pond and another mobile
home. The rent was pretty cheap so we decided
to take a look at it. First I have to tell you I
have always been very sensitive to spirits and
ghosts, but never afraid of them.
The day we went
to look at the mobile home it was in the afternoon
so it was kind of dark inside, as I walked down
the hall I could see out of the corner of my eye
a figure following along beside me, and I could
feel a presence. We both liked
the home and decided to rent it.
Later that night
I told Charlie that the trailer was haunted and
he said "are you sure?" and I said "oh yes I'm sure".
Then he asked me if I still wanted to live there,
I told him I did, because it wasn't a feeling of
anything evil, it didn't scare me.
So the next
weekend we moved in. We were both very happy
there, I forgot to mention that I had a 3 year
old daughter from a previous marriage and she
loved her new room.
The first time the ghost or
spirit let itself be known was one day after my daughter and I had been shopping and brought the
grocery's in and put everything away. I put a
bottle of dishwashing liquid above the kitchen
sink and the next time I went to get it it was
gone. My husband and I searched the entire
kitchen for it. We took out everything from the
cabinets and it was nowhere to be found. Well
the next day I opened the cabinet above the sink
and there it sat right where I had placed it the
day before.
The next time the ghost let itself
be known, I had my daughter standing in a kitchen
chair at the sink washing her hair, and across
the room on the table I had the radio on and all
at once the radio just went off. Well I rinsed
off my hands and went over to it thinking maybe
it had a short in the volume, and turned the
knob and it clicked and turned back on. Just as
if someone had turned it off.
A couple weeks
later my ex husband came by and picked my
daughter up so she could spend a week with him
for the summer. That night after Charlie and I
had gone to bed I decided to read for a little
while before going to sleep. First I must tell
you that my daughters room was down the hall from
ours and that our hall had no carpet on it, just
tile.
As I was preparing to go to sleep and had
just turned out the light and lay down, I heard
a little child giggle, at first thinking it was
my daughter Mindy, then realizing she wasn't at
home, she had gone with her dad. Then all at
once I heard the sound of little feet pitter
patter down the hall heading towards my bedroom,
and the giggling still going on. I lay there as
quiet as I could be while the sound of the little
running feet came all the way into my room and to
the side of my bed and stopped right beside me. I heard the giggle of a small child, there
was no one there. And then as suddenly as it had
come, it turned and went back, and I could hear
the pitter patter of the little feet and
giggling as the little ghost child ran away down
the hall.
I realized my home was haunted by the
spirit of a child. That's why when I came here for
the first time and realized there was a ghost I
wasn't frightened. I wonder if the child had lived
in the farm house that once stood here. There was
a pond on this property, maybe the child had
drowned here?. I never did find out. But wile I
lived there I became pregnant with my son. And I
never again saw or heard anything strange again.
Could it be possible that my son is the spirit of
that lost child?
