Okay, so this is all started happening New Year's Eve...
Some of you may have already read how all this started on the intro board...but I'm going to write it again anyways...But, first I should tell you the layout of the bottom floor as it's VERY important for the story. I'll tell it from the veiwpoint of the stairs since it's easier. Okay, when your standing at the bottom of the stairs and to your immediate right is the door to my room. My sister's room is next to mine. Looking foward and left is the door to the furnace room. Turn your head to the left and against the far wall from the stairs is the computer. And to the right of the computer is the door to the garage. That's the layout of my basement in a nutshell. It's probably not easy to picture, but oh well. Now for the story...
Well, our parents were hosting a New Year's party and my brother and I were sitting at the computer. I see this figure of a little boy standing next to me out of the corner of my eye. I turn to look, expecting to see my cousin Zach (around age 10) standing there, but no one was there. I look at my brother and he says he saw him too, but when he turned to look again it was gone. A few minutes, or possibly seconds later, Zach walks down the stairs. Now it's not very easy to run from one side of the lower floor to the other, go up the stairs, and come back down them in a matter of a few minutes or so. (believe me, I've been experimenting, it just doesn't work. lol)I ask him if he was just trying to freak us out or what (ghosts were the LAST thing on my mind). He gets a confused look on his face and says he doesn't know what we're talking about, he was just up in the bathroom (which is above the furnace room). I shrug it off for a while, because, well, I wasn't thinking MY house was haunted, but I was a believer in ghosts. I spent the rest of the party trying to find a logical explaination, I never found one.
When the party was over and everyone had left me and my sister decide to go to her room and watch some t.v. We sit there for about 10 minutes when we start hearing the computer being typed upon. Then we heard a strange banging. That's when I told her about earlier that night with the figure, she freaks, I freak, we both freak. We were too scared to sleep till about 4 in the morning, let alone in separte rooms, I slept in her bed that night.

Ever since that night it was hard to get more than 4 hours of sleep due to the noises. So one night I decide to forget about sleeping and take notes on what I hear (mostly so my parents would believe us kids about the house being haunted, they still don't) I heard A LOT. I took up 3 pages of notebook paper front and back. This is some of the stuff i heard: Lots of banging and clicking near the computer. The door to the garage slamming. The furnace clicking on, when it was finished it would quickly turn back on (cold spots anyone?). The water running on and off in the upstairs bathroom. People walking around in my brother's room (which is above my room, it's not hard to hear any movement up there). And the kicker--A little boys voice say my name.
I have kept the notes to myself, no one else has read them or even heard about them.

Skip ahead, skip ahead...sleepless nights,weird lights at night, sleeping with a night light, and sleeping with my door closed... So on Monday (Monday as in January 10th) I lay in bed, close my eyes and begin to doze. Nearing sleep, I hear this clatter near my dresser. I click on my light to see a Sega game laying there on the floor. Even at the time I knew something was wrong with that, as I know I had put it securly in the middle of the shelf. There was no way it could've just fallen. I run out of my room and see my sister on the computer. I sit next to her. I tell her about the game falling off of my dresser (We both believe the house is haunted as we share the floor with the noises on it). She tells me some things has been moving around in her room too. I nod and we sit in silence for about 15 minutes when we hear this "ding". Kinda like a windchime, only it was a single, high pitched ding. I turn to her and she says (quote) "I heard it too, just shut up and don't talk about the stupid ghost." Later, at 10:30, we decide to go to bed. I securely lock my door, turn on the lava lamp and lay down. But I suddenly didn't feel sleepy. I tossed and turned countless times until 1:45 when I finally went to sleep. About 2:15 I feel my waterbed rippling at the foot of my bed, like someone was shaking it. Half asleep, I ignore it, until my foot starts moving back and forth by itself like someone was shaking it voilently. Still half asleep, I pull my foot out of their grasp and try to get back into my dream. A few minutes later, my eyes snap open as I realize what had just happened. I quickly turn on my t.v. and stay that way until 4 to tell my dad that I wasn't feeling well enough to go to school due to my lack of sleep (I haven't told him the real reason why I couldn't sleep yet, as he wouldn't believe me anyway). He and my step mom leave for work aroudn 5:50, I go down to my room, groggy from lack of sleep. I stand in the middle of my room and look around warily, knowing someone or something was there. I suddenly feel energy rush into me and I start scolding whomever had woken me from my sleep (Not the brightest thing to do as for my consequence for it) I told them I had a big test that day and now I was going to miss it because of them. I said I don't know why they had kept me up, but I was really mad at them anyway. When I finished venting I layed in my bed, and was SOO close to sleep, when I hear water running (more like spraying) in the furnace room. I rush out of my room to see water flying EVERYWHERE from the furnace. After a few minutes of screaming about it with my sis, she grabs the phone and dials my dad's cell phone number. I would give you the "hilarious" details of me gets soaked head to foot, but this post is getting pretty long.

So after my brother and sister leave for school, I'm stuck in the house with a ghost that is upset with me. I was all but joyful for the missed school day. I spent most of the time on the computer, waiting for the furnace guys to come to fix the furnace (I had successfully shut off the water to the WHOLE house, so I couldn't take a shower, or do anything hygenic such as flushing the tiolet). So I'm sitting at the computer when I start hearing this wailing of a small boy coming from the corner by the garage door. I was SOO scared I freaked and turned up the t.v. and the computer as loud as they could go. I spent the two hours quivering in fear on the computer chair waiting for the furnace guys to come. And eventhough the t.v. and the computer music was blaring, I could still hear him. He was saying my name like he was angry with me, and after ahile he began crying again. When the furnace guys pulled up in the driveway, I gathered up the courage to run up and open the door for them. I turned off the music on the computer and clicked off the t.v. and let them do their work. They said they had never seen this happen a lot. It may have been their second time ever seeing a burst right after the pressure release valve (don't ask me what THAT means, they just said it). Later, right before my parents showed up, I was in my room. I stood in the middle of my room like before and told him my apology. I told him that I didn't mean to make him upset, but I need sleep. That night, I slept well.

I'll tell you the more recent things in another post because this is long enough.

Wow, interesting story! How long have you been living in this house, and the activity only started after New Year's Day? Something either stirred up a spirit that was already there (sometimes doing renovations causes this), or a spirit came along with something (do you or your parents collect antiques)?

Maybe you should research the history of the house. It seems as if you have a child ghost who is trying to get your attention (noting that it calls your name). Try talking to it as if you had a living child in the room with you, and see if it responds. Asking nicely to stay quiet at night will likely help you sleep better. And as you discovered, getting it mad isn't necessarily a good thing to do. =)

We've lived here for three years. Umm, no, we haven't changed or bought anything that I can think of. I'm not sure what could have happened to start all of this.

I've tried researching the house. We're about the fourth or fifth owners of it. It's only about 30 or some years old and it was made in a factory (the house that is). I haven't heard of anybody dying in the house or in the immediate area, but even if that were the case why would it start then and why here?

I've had a dream of him... but I'll tell you guys about that in the next post.

Alright, so the last thing I posted about was on Tuesday. So on Wednesday night I put in my earplugs (I had grown tired of waking up from hearing sounds outside my room) and layed in bed. I fell asleep immediatly. Around, oh 3 or so, I wake up for no reason that I can remember. I tried going back to sleep, but even with the earplugs I could still hear someone walking around my brother's room. So I got to pondering about the little guy (the ghost that is). I began thinking about where all of this was coming from. Not finding an answer I closed my eyes and began giving myself a review on all the rooms. Figuring all the stuff was all downstairs I counted all the upstairs rooms out. Thinking a little longer, I open my eyes as I realized that the night all of this started happening the garage door had been open (still not a reason for a spirit to be here, though) and that he may have ventured into the house from the garage. I whisper "the garage!" and I hear the "chime" again, loud and as clear as ever (mind you, I still had my earplugs in, so I have no idea how I heard it, I mean not even the boy's crying was THAT clear) I took this as a sign that I was right for some reason and tried to go to sleep, and I did.

The next night (Thursday night) was a terrible one. I slept alright, sure, but I woke up at 5 because I heard knocking on my wall. I opened my eyes and it stopped. I chuckled in my head as I knew that he was still on about trying not to wake me up at night while I'm asleep. I found it cute and childish, so, in a good mood, I close my eyes to dream. But my dream was FAR from happy. I was in my house and I was asking my parents why they were knocking on the walls at night, but they had no idea what I was talking about. All of a sudden, in my dream, my step mom begins pointing behind me. I turned around to see a small blur, like someone had just ran away. She looked at me and said it was about time I go to sleep, so I go down into my room, which was arranged like it had been before they had moved it for my birthday (remember, this was still a dream, I don't know what my room being different means, but it has SOME significance because I can remember it so clearly). I lay in my bed and was almost asleep (sleeping in my dreams, I find that sort of strange lol), when I hear screams and cries coming from the garage, like someone was being beaten. A few seconds after the screaming stop, I feel someone shaking my shoulder and in a crying, pleading voice telling me to wake up. I whisper "what? what's wrong? was that your dad?" (don't know WHY I said THAT) I wake up and I open my eyes, and feel a pain on my shoulder, like someone had just been shaking it. I whisper "don't worry, I'm awake now. I'll stay up with you for the rest of the night". The house grew even more quiet and I hear the chime again (I still had earplugs in, but it was as clear as a bell, pun not intended).I look at the clock and see that it was a little after 6, so I must have woken up at exactly 6. (Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, this was the exact same time when the furnace blew out water). I click on my t.v. to vh1 to watch music videos, as I knew he liked watching them because I've stayed up with him before. All was quiet for the rest of the night.

He seems to have a thing for 6 in the morning because this morning I woke up at 6 for no reason at all and couldn't go back to sleep, so I just turned on my t.v. and watched some music videos.

I have no idea why he likes 6 in the morning, I don't know why he wakes up only me, and I have no idea what the heck the chimes can be. But the 6 in the morning and the chimes must be connected somehow, and possibly the whole bottom floor for that matter. Don't ask me why he seems to have taken a "liking" to me, because I have no idea. I just try to be as nice as I can be, because I know he gets upset easily. I find him almost cute in a way, and I've grown used to the noises at night pretty easily. He's quieted down a lot since I've apologized to him. I know he's upset about something, which is what keeps him bound to the earth. He was possibly beaten to death in his garage by his father...it's anyone's guess, especially for the chimes. If you can't tell, I've been doing a lot of thinking on this matter. Any explaination for all this (except for it being my imagination) would be VERY appreciated.
Thank you for reading, I know it's a long story!

That is an interesting story, thanks for sharing it Neveko. Looking into the history of the house, as Kevin mentioned, can often be helpful. You will want to go to archives or a library to see it's history and even possibly that of the land prior the house being there. It is odd that it just started like that. He may have been there all along and only did little things that simply went unnoticed? I have read a few accounts where an earthbounds energy for whatever reason seemed to become more notable. It may just be due to a new energy source introduced into the location? I get the feeling that this recent activity was not so much that he was upset but rather did what he knew would grab your attention so you would readily find the water problem. If all were sleeping soundly and this happened it wouldn't take to long for there to be quite the mess. From what you've said I don't get the feel that any harm is intended he's just trying to get attention. I agree with Kevin ask to be left alone at night so you can sleep.

I also think it would be good for you to talk about this with your Dad, even if you think he will never believe you. Sometimes logical explanations can be found amid the unusual activity. Ruling out those will help. I have activity here at my place and I always try to eliminate those that are more readily explanable and keeping note only of the times that an explanation can't be found. Your Dad may be able to help provide that. I know it can be frustrating when you tell someone and they doubt you but I always view it as help. I have had times when a skeptic mind aided me with seeing the explanable and other times where even they were left baffled which also helped on the flip-side. =)

Let us know if anything further happens and if you find any info about the history of the home/land.

Edit Note: Hi Neveko it seems we were typing at the same time so I missed your last two posts. It is not unusaul for the activity of a spirit or earthbound to be centered around one person more than another. In particular if you have become more aware of it and not just shrugging it off. Some people are more sensitive to the unseen than others. I see you've looked into the house some. Do still try and research the land, there may have been some other building there long ago. I can see why you were upset by your dream, it may well be giving you a clue but it may also be a release of sorts as this has bothered you some and we all need to release things while we sleep. It may take some time to sort this all out. The chimes and 6 am do seem to be the common factor. Not sure what it may mean. Thanks for the additional update, don't worry we're not thinking it's your imagination many of us have experienced things we can't explain. =)

Yes, I also have been looking for logical reasons for certain things. For one, I know that the furnace coming on can easily be mistaken for the garage door slamming. I've also been paying attention to when I hear someone walking around in my brother's room. I ask him about it, and it's never him, or anyone else. I usually tend to have an open mind, but it's hard to find anything logical in the wailing I heard the one day. I also know that some of the banging and other certain noises are from the house settling and the pipes gurgling. It's really hard to think that the house would continue to "settle" in one spot many times in a small amount of time, though.
I've been researching anything I possibly can, as I have plenty of time at night. No, I'm not some psycho that automatically thinks any noise is paranormal, because I have been looking around the house at night for causes for certain noises, which I don't do A LOT because I'm soo easy to scare lol.
Thanks for your help!!

Thanks, Cat. I can't seem to find anything about the house. I found all the stuff out from my dad, he seems to know a lot about it. I still haven't found anything interesting yet. I'm just taking a guess that nothing has happened. I've heard that ghosts can be centered on people and not places, but I don't know of any small boys that have died. Maybe he's just a wandering spirit...it's still anyone's guess. He's VERY restless though. I feel he just gets lonely at night. I think I'm pretty sensitive to ghosts because I have these "visons" of scenes in my future. But now I'm getting off the subject. I haven't heard of a ghost that didn't like someone sleeping, but I haven't been reading a lot of stories, and I know each case is unique in it's own way.
To be honest, I'm more freaked out by the chimes than by the ghost in particular.
Oh yeah, my friend, Angelstar, blabbed to her mom about my predicament...she believes me, oh yeah, but she feels that ALL spirits are evil. I know this isn't true, because loved one's aren't evil...but I don't like arguing with people I don't know, so I let it slide. So I'm wondering...does anyone else feel the same way as my friend's mom?

Neveko, there are some individuals who do believe that all spirits are evil. Personally, I don't. However, I do think you are wise not to argue or get into a debate with your friend's mom . Everyone is entitled to their opinions, and as a young person, you are in the process of forming your own.

I think Cat and Kevin have given you some good advice. I'd like to second what Cat suggested about talking to your Dad or other adult you know and trust. They may be able to give you some insight into whether or not what you are experiencing has a logical explanation.

Regarding the chiming sound -- is there a possibility that it could be some electronic appliance in your home? My husband once left his beeper in the top of his closet and I spent half a day trying to track down the mysterious beeping noise I heard. Appliances that are low on batteries may beep or chime. Smoke detectors are the worst about doing so, and the noise they make is not always easy to track down, especially if the house has weird acoustics. Also, occasionally during cold winter months, areas may experience brief power outages that are almost imperceptable, but appliances may beep because of the brief loss or surge of power.

In the event this is an earthbound spirit, it doesn't sound like a negative one, just one that wants to be acknowledged. When you and your brother caught a glimpse the night of the party, did you notice what type of clothing it was wearing? Was it from another era? If so, did you recognize from when? Talk to your brother as to what he saw. Does his story match yours, or does it conflict? More than likely, rather than being attached to your home, or anyone in it, the spirit would be attached to the land. Perhaps lived in a nearby structure from years back? Keep looking into information regarding what was on or near the land your home is on years ago. Above all, don't let what's going on consume you; you are in control of the situation. It is your home, your room and you have a right to sleep peacefully and get the rest you need. Keep searching for logical explanations, but if you can't find any, chalk it up to being a really unusual experience that doesn't have an explanation!

I would even recommend sitting in your room, or where ever the most active spot is and having a conversation with the spirit. Tell it calmly and firmly, that this is your home and your room. Tell it that it can stay (or not), but that you and your family do not want to be disturbed by it. In other words, take control of the situation. Do not yell and show a lot of negative emotion. You might want to try this and see if the situation doesn't ease up. Good luck, and remember to be patient, it might take a few tries!

Just a personal experience: A few years ago, I lived in a house that had some odd goings on that were really frightening my young nephew. One day while I was alone, I sat in the guest bedroom, where the activity seemed to be centered, and had one of these "heart-to-heart" discussions, appearing to be talking to thin air. I politely but firmly told the ghost that it needed to stop scaring my nephew, that this was my home now and that we were staying in it and that it was welcomed to stay as long as it didn't do anything frightening or harmful to our family or visitors. From that day on, the activity lessened, and my nephew felt much more comfortable during his visits.

Hi Neveko:

First of all, let me say, that you are very good at expressing and telling your story. I don't know if you are familiar with psychic Sylvia Browne. I've read a lot of books, seen her on Montel Williams regularly, and Cat has attended one of her seminars. As far as "spirits" being evil...She says there are no evil "spirits," because spirits have all ready crossed over into the healing white light. They have been healed from the earthly pain and emotions we have in our mortal state. Ghosts, on the other hand, are not really, "evil;" but, they are trapped here for whatever reason. It can be from a sudden death or tragic death and not realizing they are dead, fear of judgement, etc... "Ghosts," usually haunt places, not people and most of the time, they aren't aware of us, or they look at us as "intruding" on their space. There are exceptions when a ghost is aware of a person who is receptive to them. They exist in a state of confusion and sometimes misery. Sylvia Browne suggests that in cases like this, it doesn't hurt to simply tell them that they no longer belong to this world, and not to be afraid to go into the healing white light. Tell him that loved ones are waiting for him there and missing him. Everything is made right when you cross over. All the pain is gone, the fear, nothing but goodness and love awaits. Sometimes, that's all it takes to get a ghost to leave.

From what you have told us so far, and since you've seen this "ghost," and heard him, I personally don't think you're dealing with evil. Simply a trapped soul, confused and getting your attention. The history of the property and area around you would probably be a good thing to delve into. You can go to the county courthouse and library and see what you can find. If you have a digital cam or a camcorder, try taking some pics when you feel the ghost is being active. See what you come up with.

Talking to an adult you are comfy with and trust is a good idea and important in your case. I think I would start by merely talking to the ghost with compassion and directing him to enter the light. See what happens, that may be all you have to do.

[ January 16, 2005, 05:03 AM: Message edited by: SavannahSilkie ]

Hello Neveko =) You've gotten a lot of good advice here so I can't add much to that but I did want to say that the sound of windchimes are also the sign of a spirit guide. Obviously I cannot say this is the case with you but thought I'd just throw that in for your own information. I have only heard the windchimes in my dreams and by researching found out that it was a sign of spirit guides trying to communicate.

Also from one fraidy cat to another just remember that your being afraid does not mean this is a malevolent being. They could just desperately be seeking your attention. They are very limited on communicating with us, you know, and even though it can be very frightening, all the noises and strange happenings could simply be cries for help.

I have had a lot of the same things happen in our home as well. This is why I'm looking into buying a digital recorder to maybe be able to communicate with whatever seems to be trying to get my attention so badly.

Best of luck to you sweetie. Stay strong and remember...what looks scary initially isn't always as bad as you think. Keep us posted, okay?

Thank you all. All of your advice is VERY helpful. I'll need to look into the land's history. And your explainations for the chimes are helpful too. I don't think the chimes are anything electronic though, because we (that being me and my sis) have heard it in three different rooms: the downstairs living room, my room, and her room.

Oh and I didn't see his clothing when I saw him out of the corner of my eye. I merely saw a dark figure (I've heard of these "shadow" ghosts). It was there for a mere second, so there was no real story to it, except me and my brother seeing him there. I did, however, catch a glimpse of his hand and his wrist in my dream being lifted from my shoulder. He's caucasian and I think I saw the end of a red long sleeved t-shirt. So I'm guessing he's from somewhere close to this time. I'm sorry I couldn't see more, but he had disappeared before I could catch a better glimpse of him. I should've included that detail in there, but I was writing fast.

I do have some film left on my camera, I could take some pictures of the basement at night (I was actually planning on doing this awhile ago, but schoolwork and sleep get in the way pretty easily). He hasn't been very active for the last few days...but I still can't sleep past 6. Very odd. I just open my eyes and can't go back to sleep. I haven't heard the chimes for a couple of days either...well, that can be explained by me sleeping with my t.v. on. I've been experimenting at night with my t.v. being on and off. When it's on, everything is very quiet throughout the whole house (I go out of my room and close the door, nothing). But when I turn off the t.v. the noises start up again. I know that's probably not very helpful, but it's a good little tidbit of info to me (I can actually sleep to 6 without any interruptions!)

Oh yeah, I HAVE told my dad about someone walking up and down the stairs at night (I left that out because it wasn't very important to the story), and he said it's just my imagination. Okay, so that kinda made me upset that he wouldn't even LISTEN to me, let alone TRY to understand. I have been giving little hints about it to my step mom, though (I'm not very open to her, as I don't trust her very much). I feel she believes me, just not in front of my dad. Although I have some support from my family, they know nothing about ghosts, and the little bits of info I tell them confuse them..so I'm stuck there.

Anyways, I am very happy to have gotten all of this positive feedback. I'm very lucky to have stumbled upon this site. Everyone is very friendly here. Thanks...to all of you!!


P.S.: Silkie, thanks for the compliment, I do A LOT of writing on the side...but that's off subject lol.

Edit: Oh, and about the chime being a sign that my spirit guide is trying to communicate with me, how can I verify that?

[ January 16, 2005, 10:47 AM: Message edited by: Neveko ]

Well I'm not all that sure it can be verified to be honest. Hearing the chimes doesnt necessarily mean it's a guide but just thought I would let you know it's possible. Maybe someone else could answer this better than me?

Best of luck to you! =)

You said this all started when your parents had a party? Well sometimes spirits "hitch a ride" with people! Do you know the guests or if they had any problems? Also try to not give too much attention to him/it. I believe it will create an atomosphere that will welcome it to stay or more to come. Just my opinion. Also have you done anything yourself to "lure" spirits into your home? Any ouiji boards,etc.?

Hmmm, you know, my sister's friend DID say their house is haunted by this little girl that calls her name at night. But, I KNOW this is a boy and the ghost is still there at the friend's house. Besides, she's been here loads of other times before and nothing happened then. And I haven't been using a oiuja board either, because, well, it helps to have one in the first place...but you didn't know that, so oh well.
I haven't been paying much attention to him lately as I have made a habit of sleeping with my t.v. on at night. I no longer talk to him, I no longer speak of him. I sometimes think about him, but I'm pretty sure that doesn't do anything.
None of this is working. I know that because today, yes, TODAY. I came home from school to see the downstairs curtains have fallen down. Actually, not fallen, were TORN down. There was little pieces of the wall on the floor, and the and the only thing left of the metal things that held them up are the holes in the wall. No one is home right now except for my brother, and he walked in the door the exact same time I did. There are also dirty little hand prints on the wall next to where the metal things were. No, we don't have any little kids that come to the house, and if we did, I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be able to reach to the top of the window. I didn't freak out or anything, I just called my brother down to have him look at it. I don't know why the ghost would do that, except to gain my attention and possibly to let me know he's still here and still up to his little "games". I just thought a little update would tell you something. *sighs* I should take a picture, but my camera has sadly run out of film, sorry.
Thanks for all your help and understanding. I really appreciate it. Thanks!!

Wow, this is getting serious. Seems like this entity will go as far as causing property damage to get attention.

Maybe it's time to update your parents on the goings-on, at least so you or your brother don't get blamed for the drapes.

I'd have a good heart to heart with him/it. Talk politely but firmly and say something like "I'd like to help you but I don't know how. But you need to stop damaging things." Have you had any dreams about him? He could be trying to communicate with you in your dreams. Use that opportunity to find out more.

And get some film! =)

Kevin, I already told you about one of the dreams of him earlier, he seems to disappear at night when the t.v. is on, so nothing has happened at night or in my dreams recently. I told my dad that it wasn't me or my brother or my sister that torn down the curtains, because, well, we have no reason to do such a thing...I think he may be starting to realize that he was wrong in thinking that everything going has a logical reason behind it. I don't care if he believes me or not, I've got more support from everyone else, including all my friends ^-^

Do you have any pets in the house that could have possibly torn the curtains down? Is it possible a kid from the neighborhood could be pulling a prank? This may not be what is going on, but I'm trying to rule out some possibilities.

I agree with Kevin. If there is evidence that this ghost is damaging property, it is time to really talk with your dad and stepmom. It might be a good idea for your brother and sister to sit in on this also. Talk to them calmly and maturely and let them know that whatever is going on, has the potential to be destructive, especially given what happened with the curtains. If handprints were left and they are a different size than yours and your siblings, your family is going to understand that this isn't someone in the household. Talk to your siblings and get together with your dad and stepmom and let them know your concerns. Let us know how it turns out.

Hi Neveko!

I had wanted to post to this sooner, but alas just haven't been able to get to it. It sounds like you're really having a lot of activity in your home. I have to really just agree with what everyone else has already said. You've been given some really great advice. It sounds like you've taken everything to heart and have really been trying to figure things out as well.

I have to completely agree with Carrie as far as the curtains go. It's definitely a good idea to sit down and really talk to your family about all of this. At this point whatever is behind all of this has gone from making noise to get attention, to being quite destructive. And as Kevin said, you and your siblings don't want to get blamed if more things of this nature occur.

Be sure to keep us updated!

Another slight update: okay, last night I am proud to say I conquered my fear of sleeping without my T.V. Horrays!! Anywho...nothing big happened...a few voices outside my door..footsteps..yeah, nothing too scary and anything I'm not used to. Except!!..I woke up from that "falling" feeling three times. I know all of the times and these are exact: 9:30(around 10min. after I fell asleep), 12:00, and 6:00.
I don't know why it happened three times. I know all about WHAT it is...I'm just wondering why it happened so many times in one night.
If anyone has an explaination for my "falling" feeling I would very much appreciate it.

Here's the skinny on falling dreams[/URL]. (Doesn't have anything to do with ghosts.)

As others have said, Neveko, I think you'd do well to sit down and talk with your family about your experiences.
