My gran is 77 she has had tons of ghost sightings, theres no doubt in her mind that ghosts are real.
One of the most amazing things that happened to her is she had been helping her neighbour sort through some stuff when she came across an old picture of the neighbours mother. She had never seen her picture before she put it down and continued helping out.
The neighbour unfortunately died a few months later so my gran was in charge of looking after the house until it was sold. So she went round to make sure everything was ok and had just come out of the door and locked it all up. My grans cat came into the garden and walked up to my gran like cats do
. So my gran picks him up and walks towards the gate, she turns around to do one last check to make sure theres nothing she had forgotten. She looks at the door then for some reason looks up at one of the top floor windows. There looking down at her is the neighbours mother! She said she could see her face clear as day, my gran was still holding the cat at this point who had also seen the face at the window its hair was standing on end and it was hissing. She says the face just faded away, of course my gran was mildy shocked. The cat then jumped down and ran as fast as it could back to my grans house where it cowered under a table for the entire day.
What is most convincing about the whole thing is the fact my Gran is not some mad person she is a former nurse and very normal person. The fact that she didnt even now the woman she had only every seen one photo briefly of her rules out some kind of "imagining" it. Like she had been close to someone and just thought about her image. Another big thing is the fact the cat saw the same thing my gran did it was freaking out.
I have decided now we are on a subject that interests me I would run down a few other things that have happened to my gran/mum.
When my Mum was growing up they lived in a large old house which was haunted. Things that happened there are:
*My mum had an old wind up record player, the only way it worked is to wind up the handle then let it play. It would start playing by itsefl in the middle of the night.
*My gran was walking up the stairs when it went freezing cold and a woman in grey walked straight past her. My gran was so suprised by this she actualy said oh excuse me as she went past!
She also walked in to the study to see the same woman sitting in a chair.
*My gran saw her dog which has died several times in the house.
* My mum would find things moved constanly one time she had been making her bed, she went downstairs, then when she came back her bed sheets and mattress had been thrown across the room.
The simple fact is theres no way that my Gran or Mum are lying. I do not doubt what they saw and experienced.
Holy shit!
