I have always had 2 ghosts in my house. I saw the first one when I was only 6. I was standing near my staircase and saw/felt someone run upstrairs. I ran and told my dad, he searched the whole house but no one was there. There were times in my room my muscial toy would play by itself, until I finally said out load " It's okay if you want to play with my thing, but do it when I'm not around, you're scarring me". Things had disappeared and when I would say give them back, they would be where I last lef them. I've has knocks on the bathroom door when I took a shower and then no one would enter if I opened the door (or at least I didn't see them enter). Once I opened the bathroom door and saw someone ( kids heights) run towards my brothers room. I looked in there an no one was in there. I awoke one night to see a 'person' standing in front of me, he was short and wore clothes from the 1900's. Ya know those kicker pants, old shoes, suspenders. He just stood there, then disappeared. Parents and brother heard little kids footsteps go in one direction upstairs. Brother went to check it out and no one was there. We do not have the history of our house, I wish we did. I do know a neighbor died in the bay behind us. But he lived next door.
I do dream of family members before or right after they die since I was 10. My aunt told me to tell her hubby she was okay now and she loves him. How does a 12 y.o tell her uncle his wife said that?!! Years later I told my dad and he told his brother. My cousin visited me while I was on vacation the day he died. I didn't realize it was him though because I just felt like someone was to the right of me and I was too scared to turn around. As I layed in the bed someone who was not visible pulled on my sheets. I actually saw the sheet being pulled tight. I just sat there in amazement.
Both dad and I get poked in our sides. Which now I make sure I sleep with my back to either a wall or put a pillow on my side.
So yeah I believe in ghosts.
