This sort of creeps me out a tad but i noticed a single penny on my kitchen table, no big deal. I put the penny on the counter, still no big deal. Afew hours later the penny was back on the kitchen table, i didn't move it and no one else was home to do it. I just stood there and looked at it like, duh, i know i moved it to the counter.
I took the penny upstairs and put in on the dresser with a bunch of loose change, it was the only penny there. I went back up to the bedroome for something, whatever it was, and the penny was laying on the foot of my bed. I felt a little skiddish at this point and i sort of sheepishly turned to look at the pile of change on the dresser. The penny was still in the pile of change but where did this penny come from? I had made the bed in the morning and tidied up the bedroom for the day. There was no penny at the foot of that bed. I took that coin and put it on the dresser with the rest, it's still there, for now. EEEEkkk

Your house apparently is haunted. Time for the ghost-buster. Is there anyway you can get some holy water from your church?

Hey that's kool if my house is haunted. I was always interested in stuff like that. My mom's dead sister came back to my grandmother after she passed, she used to tell me the story all the time.
Well if i have a ghost in my house, i wish he/she would leave me more than pennies. How bout leavin me s 50 spot here and there.
Now maybe those pennies are supposed to mean something, idk.

I love it bb.
You may have your very own ghost. I'm jealous.
I'm not allowed to have one because my wife doesn't believe in them.
I never found that in the Methodist handbook but she says it's in there.
What I do remember is the part about "I believe in the Father the Son and the Holy Ghost".
As a teenager of the 50s we called them, big daddy, daddio, and spook, but not where the preacher could hear us.
I like the TV show TAPS and what appears to be their sister show, Ghost Hunters International.
TAPS has produced some good video proof of such things while not appearing to be manufacturing the evidence.
Years ago I was preparing to build an addition on the back of my 200 year old house. One evening when I was home alone watching TV in the front room, I saw what appeared to be a shadow walk across the kitchen in the rear of the house. I never mentioned it to my wife because it was just a fleeting thing. One night we went out to eat and were sitting at the bar after eating. The place, which was in another old house like mine was supposed to have a ghost that hung around one of the rooms. We were discussing that when I heard her telling someone about seeing the same thing I had seen at our house. So we apparently both saw it at different times but neither of us has seen it since.

Jeez, I should have known better than to come on to a thread when I'm home alone that's about creepy things. Thanks a lot, guys. Jeez. :-( Now I'll never go to sleep tonight.

Aw come on healthinfitnessguy, lol.....spirits don't hurt you, it's the living you have to worry about.

Well, I know it's not the living or the dead that I'm afraid of, it's more awful things that I can't explain. I don't like not knowing things and that's usually what creeps me out. That and violent zombie movies.
Do you have any other ghost stories of your house?

I don't think we have a ghost, i just think it was one of those things. I may have laid my pants on the bed and the penny could have fallen out of the pocket when i picked them back up. As far as the penny on the kitchen floor, i think i may have swept the counter at one point with my hand and it could have fallen without my knowing it. I am trying to convince myself here, okay!!!
My grandmothers daughter came back to her mom about 6 months after she was burned to death in a fire. She would tell me that story all the time.
I also had an Aztec bell, (i collect bells) my employer went to Arizona and brought it back for me. I had nothing but months of bad luck after getting that bell. I told her i wanted to throw it away and she told me not to throw it in the garbage that i had to destroy it first.
I smashed it with a hammer and collected the pieces, then i put them in a metal coffee can and lit it on fire. Ceramic doesn't really burn but i scorched it pretty good which allowed me to basically pulvarize the remains into dust. I took the can down to the pier and threw the dust in the lake. No more bad luck after that, i think the bell was haunted and i used to keep it in an etagere case with rest of my collection. That damn bell would fall off the shelf at least 2 or 3 times a week, fall all by itself, but it never broke or cracked. I wish it brought me good luck, but it was an ugly bell anyway.

I remember when we were kids we would like to talk about these kind of things in the evening. And I have to tell you it was pretty scary to walk alone in the night after these stories. :-) :$ There was this boy that usually had the best and the creepiest stories. And everybody would circle around him and listen him carefully. And the best thing would be if someone sneaked away, and just comes running from the dark through all of us. :-) Everybody would screen and try to hide. It's was very funny.
I haven't experienced any ghost's in my life, but there where things similar to bbfeet's story about that penny. And it was like, didn't put this in my room 10 minutes ago?! :O o.O :$

Wow, that Aztec bell story sure is strange. I can't figure out why you'd have bad luck unless it really was haunted or cursed, so I guess you seem to have figured out how to get rid of it.
Have you ever heard of the Bell Witch?

EEEEK, NO (gulp)
Now before you begin to tell me about the bell witch, i have a hugh collection of bells from all over the world, over 200 last count. So be gentle as i really don't want to get rid of my bells. Some of them are over 40 years old. If i feel spooked at all over stupid bells, they will find themselves in the dump.

Hahaha no, don't worry. I don't know where the name came from but it's a local ghost story from my neck of the woods, or at least where i grew up. It's one of the more famous hauntings of the 19th century. But don't worry, it's got nothing to do with bells. I think it's the family that made Bell jars, you know like the ones used for canning? Had you ever heard about it? The ghost supposedly is also able to predict the future...

No, i have never heard about that...i'm all ears tho. I do have many colored bell jars that i use use for my herbs and flowers. Living in the country seems fitting for a bell jar to placed on the table as an accent piece and we even have a few of them in the freezer which is accomodating to a 12 oz can of Bud!!

Yeah so it's just this one girl who the Bell Witch picked on and haunted all the time. Causted her to vomit up pins and needles and all kinds of things falling off shelves. It was pretty crazy. Of course this is over two hundred years ago at this point. The Bell Witch claimed she'd be back in 107 years after 1835 but I don't think anyone's heard anything from her since.
I have other scarier stories than that if you want to hear but ask at your own risk :-)

Ya okay, i'll risk it. The spookier the better. You know i wanted to be an undertaker. My parents had bought me a new car and all of my books were on order for school, this was in 1975. I was accepted at the Syracuse School of Mortuary Science, then mother nature decided to pay me a visit and she kept visiting 4 more times.
I can still do it but i would have to commute and it's much harder to get into now. I have several friends who are undertakers who can help me, but i do think it's out of reach. Once i graduated and became licensed, the only thing i could do would be a "gopher" these are the newbies that get woke out of bed at 2a.m. to go pick up a body, by yourself. The by yourself part doesn't bother me, it's the lifting that i can't do alone.
