I'm in desperate need of help guys. The spirit that has peacefully lived in our house for the last 2 years, has suddenly left and seems to be replaced by something much darker.
About 2 years ago my husband and I and our 2 teenage kids moved into this house. Due to a unexpected and very sudden job transfer, I had to research the house and blindly rush through the rental process without ever setting foot in it. The current owners also work for the same company that my husband does, so it gave me a small amount of relief about having to jump into it feet first. It is a very average house, built in the early 80's. It sits in the middle of a pleasant but average neighbourhood, with most houses also built around the same time frame. Unremarkable and white picket fence ish. We would be the 4th renters in the last 7 years.
After 10 hours of flying across the country, being exhausted and over whelmed, I set foot inside my house for the first time. I was greeted with the smell of fresh paint, new carpet and a lingering hint of bleach. Everything looked nice but, a little small compared to what we were moving from. My husband and I strolled through the house making small comments here and there about repairs or features. While standing in the dining room, staring out into the gorgeous huge back yard, I suddenly got the chills and shivered slightly. And then, I felt her. I say her because that is what it came across as to me. Older, female, nurturing. In my mind I began to picture a grandmotherly type who, probably raised a few kids, outlived her husband and had spent many years alone and missing her loved ones. This is not a new experience for me, it's always been a thing for me to identify who is in a room or house without actually seeing them. It started when I was younger and could always tell who was home when I walked through the door. Or I would know right away which sibling of mine was walking around in the other room. As I got older, around 7 or 8, I began to feel other people around. Sometimes those 'people' were not really there. I would experience emotions from them. Small snap shots of how they looked, what they felt, when or where they lived. It was not something I ever really discussed with anyone. I often questioned my sanity because of it and I didn't need some one else questioning it either. When I was 9 I told my mom that my grandma had just died. She was really upset with me for saying such a horrible thing. Her yelling was interrupted by the telephone. It was my uncle, calling to tell her my grandma passed about 20 minutes before. Her grief over shadowed my peculiarness so it was never mentioned again. I began to feel things around me as I got older. Darker things. Sometimes it would be at a friends house or out hiking in the mountains. A few times, I knew something had latched onto me. I did the only thing I could think of, I ignored them. Thankfully for younger me, the real active stuff did not start until my later teens and early 20's. Those experiences are a story all their own. Basically, I know things are there. Most of the time, they just drift in and out of my life. I have gotten very good at just ignoring most of. It may soumd bizarre that I ignore it but honestly it is the only way I know how to keep ahold of my life. Once you embrace the spiritual world and open yourself up to it, it is a hard road to try and turn around on and an impossible door to close.. So, I just steer clear of the bad ones, make a mental note of the good ones, and try and live in as much peaec as possible.
I was caught slightly off guard by her but felt only pleasant things about her. I silently gave myself a good ass chewing for not considering the possibility of the house having a resident already. I had become very distant and complacent over the last few years, living peacefully in a spirit free house.
I felt her drift around, in and out, over the next few weeks. I would some times get an over whelming feeling of disapproval when setting up certain things in the house. Removing or re-placing items, curtains, pictures some where else usually helped. Most of the time I felt her around, it was an affectionate or loving sensation. This might sound weird to most of you, but keep in mind, I have been feeling these things for practically my whole life. Good and bad and every other human emotion on the spectrum. It certainly sounds half crazy to me most of the time when I really think about it. I just feel them. I don't know how to explain it. I would say it could best be described as being in the same room as a (real) person and just knowing that they are happy, mad, sad, etc. You just know, or atleast I think most people have experienced that before.
Over the last 2 years, things would happen every once in awhile and I would know it was her. Sometimes it would be quiet for months, other times we would have many days in a row with events. These things have always been mostly innocent and at worst just annoying. Pictures falling off the wall. Lights going on and off by themselves. Electronics unplugging themselves or turning off and on repeatedly. I laugh and 'joke' it's the ghost, I do not discuss with them my sensitivity to things. Only as joking around do we talk about it all.
I did not feel at any point that my family or myself were in any danger. Things happened so infrequent that they mostly forgot until the next incident happend. My daughter did get a good scare last summer that did rattle her a bit. She was on Skype with a friend and got hungry in the middle of the night. She had carried her laptop to the kitchen and talked with her friend while raiding the refrigerator. Her friend made a remark to her saying something like, "I thought your parents were asleep?" My daughter replied, "ya they are why?" Friend says, "well who is that walking around behind you in the other room?" She turns, sees something for just a flash of an instant and then hauls butt into our room like the hounds of hell on chasing after her. For anyone who might think teeneagers are lazy sloth like creatures, have them get spooked and see how fast they can move! . We went out and looked but didn't find anyone. All the doors and wimdows still shut and locked. Poor babygirl didn't get a good nights sleep after that for weeks. I like to think 'she' was just watching over my daughter that night.
The last few weeks, all of this has changed. The activity in the house has gotten more frequent, things are starting to get broken or damaged. These incidents are happening right in front of us. Things sliding across counters, lights swinging around, doors slamming right out of our hands. The most worrisome part of all of it though is, I don't feel her at all. Not even a hint of her. I don't feel anything or anyone. The things happening do not seem like her at all, but I don't who it is. There is just nothing there. It is completely empty feeling to me. I'm honestly too scared to open myself too much and put my feelers out. I do not want to open myself up to what ever this is that is now reaking havoc on us. I need advice on what to do. There were a few people who helped me out when things got out of hand back when I was younger. They helped me do a cleansing on my house and myself. They did a few other things that I hesitate to call rituals but for lack of a better word will use it. They made it all stop amd it never came. But that was over 15 years ago and they are on the other side of the country from me now. I have no idea how to contact them. I did make a few attempts at contacting a paranormal investigation place near here, but they only replied with a generic email telling me I needed to fill out their request form before I can get a reply. The form requires all my personal info.amd also they have a requirement that you have to have your landlord's permission if you are a renter before they will help you. While trying to email them, my phone went crazy a few times, flipping through random pages and then shutting off. I just do not know what to do. For the first time in my life I can't feel who or what it is and that makes me more terrified then I have ever been.
