Is my house Haunted?

Question

When ever we have family over like 5 more people weird stuff happens. Me and my brothers and my dad were sitting on the couch. All of a sudden these 2 flower holders with a mirror in the middle on the wall fell off. The flower handles fell at the same time. The mirror was just sitting there on the wall. No body was even near both sides of the wall either. And my sister in law keeps seeing a face out the window. So does my mom and aunt. They say its my dead grandma. So do you think my house is haunted. And what should i do to try and capture some evidence.

Answer 1

If your mother thinks it's your grandma, it probably is. My grandmother had left my daughters some ceramic angels she made, and when we had a terrible earth quake and evreything was on the floor (tv,food, nic-nac's, jewelry) broken and scattered except for the item my grandma had given us. She was catching her items and placing them carefully down. I feel her presence sometimes, and my cousin said he saw her at his graduation. Family ties are strong and the spirit world is a huge mystery. But I feel like family members are always there to watch over us.

Answer 2

Well, first thing's first: Try not to overreact right away. Sometimes, things that seem paranormal can really be something normal. So, firstly I suggest looking at logical reasons. For example, these flower holders - have a look at them first. Were they able to fall off on their own? Was it possible? Were they put up correctly? Was there a window close by which could have blown a breeze in and caused it to fall off? If not (which I think is the case, because I doubt your mom and aunt are just 'seeing' things) - then you move onto the next step. You want evidence, right? One of the best ways to do this, is by simply using a camera and taking photos. It doesn't matter of its digital or not (although this is preferred so you are able to delete/upload photos easily). All you have to do is take photos whenever you feel there is 'something' present. Sometimes, if you're lucky you'll be able to catch it on camera.

Another thing you can do is use an EVP recorder. EVP recording is basically a technique used capture ghostly voices. If you catch anything on tape, then its worth checking out what this 'being' is trying to say! Who knows, you may even find out WHY it's hanging around?

Alternatively, you can also just leave a camera recording and check the next day if you catch anything abnormal. Rarely, ghosts (or ghostly activity) are caught on a video camera, but it won't hurt to try. And if you do find anything on camera - I'm sure it'll be an amazing/interesting find.

These are just a few ideas. If you want any more ideas, I suggest checking out: http://www.ghoststudy.com . This is a very reliable website which will give you a lot of information about ghosts/ghostly activity.

Good luck!

This is a fun little quiz that lists some of the "symptoms" of a haunting. By themselves they don't necessarily mean anything more than faulty wiring or other simple explanations. If you answer "yes" to 5 or more of these questions, there is possibility that your house may be haunted.

1. Do you seem to lose important items only to have them reappear later in an area which you had already searched?

2. Do pets such as cats or dogs seem afraid to enter certain areas of the house?

3. Do lights or televisions turn on and off by themselves?

4. Have you heard someone call your name when no one is home?

5. Have you heard footsteps in the house when you are alone?

6. Do you hear odd scratching or knocking sounds coming from within the walls?

7. Have you noticed negative changes in either your attitude or the disposition of other family members where it doesn't seem to be warranted?

8. Do you sometimes feel as though you are being watched?

9. Do you see movement or even shadows out of the corner of your eye?

10. Have you witnessed doors open and close by themselves?

11. Do certain areas of the home feel unusually cold and seem incapable of warming up or have you experienced strange cold spots that seem centralized to a specific location with no discernable origin?

12. Do children in the home seem to have unhealthy relationships with "imaginary friends?"

13. Have any members of the family used a Ouija board or similar item in the house?

14. Do photographs taken in the home often appear with unexplainable white mists or orbs appearing in them?

15. Have there been any tragic deaths in the house or the grounds upon which it is built?

16. Do you sometimes catch movement out of the corner or your eye?

Answer 4

When you ask the question, "Is such and such haunted?" You first need to consider ALL the factual options you can find. Facts are important.

Could the mirror and flower holders have had a loose screw? Was it well built? or 100 other questions.

Face in the window? Was it a reflection of someone inside? There anyone outside at the time? How about the shadows? then apply another 100 questions.

If you are convinced... then there are numerous things you can try to gain clout. Most difficult would be picture/video... almost guaranteed failure. Otherwise there is audio, temperature readings...

In the end, no one can tell you online if you place is haunted. If they claim to, they are quacks. (then again, that word is applied to those who believe as well)
Good Luck.

Answer 5

I belive it is possible that your house could be haunted. If it is someone from your family, they could be trying to tell you something or someone in your family. I don't know of any real things you can do to "capture evidence" but you should be able to contact a paranormal expert or something like that. Good luck, and I wouldn't worry about it unless bad things start happening.

Answer 6

First and formost you must understand.
Drugs are bad, and the acid you are dropping is the worst.
It stays with you for very long periods of time, and you will have
flash backs for a very long time.
Second- seek psychiatric help, you are not just crazy, you are a
raving lunatic. OMG!

And lastly- XYZ, your fly is open. Its OK though, nothing worth seeing.

Answer 7

K, heres what u gotta do:

Go to your kitchen table, put a loaf of white bread, a jar of peanut butter, a jar of jelly, and a jar of fluff on it.

If you find some peanut butter and fluff missing, your house isnt haunted, if you find peanut butter and jelly missing, your house isnt haunted, and if you find jelly and fluff missing, your house isnt haunted.

If you find the condiment put away, your grandmother has reincarnated herself as a ghost-maid, so run!

Answer 8

Reading this is making me ultra aware of my surroundings which answers you question: If you believe it is haunted or might be then it is...by your thoughts and imagination at least.

Answer 9

spirits do wonder around. I suggest to talk to the spirit when something like this happen. It won't hurt. If your mom says its your grandma, perhaps it is. Just talk to her and get use to it. Maybe that will help her spirit rest.

Answer 10

I sometimes see my dad when I look in a mirror. It's freaky!
