Man who lived in world-famous Connecticut haunted house tells of spooky experiences
Рет қаралды 21,683
When Jim Post and his wife Jackie rented the top two floors of a big Southington colonial in 1995, they had no idea of its reputation as a haunted house or of the history that would one day make it the subject of a horror film called, "The Haunting in Connecticut."
As fate would have it, they found out on Halloween, when Post asked the first-floor tenant if he wanted to share trick-or-treating duties.
The man replied, "We don't do Halloween anymore. It got too weird, people would come from all over, and they would line up down the sidewalk and down the road, wanting to get in."

Why are ghosts always old timey and dressed in Victorian attire? For once id like to hear of one floating in the corner yammering into their cell phone.

Because modern ghosts can't decide on a gender Should they appear as a man or women That and the fact modern ghosts are lazy

Because the person you are seeing died in that era. U don't really die it's a illusion though. Even people from the 1700s you will see in the afterlife. They float because there's no gravity up there. No physical matter just energy.

The old house my now ex-husband & l bought in 1987 was definitely haunted. Many years later l lost $40 in an apartment l was renting. It had been in my wallet and disappeared as l held the wallet. A few months later another person found it on my livingroom floor. That's when I started realizing sometimes the demons follow you from place to place.🐾🌈☮️🇨🇦

Native Americans believe if you speak of the paranormal it will start activity Like the Wendigo Navajo believe if you speak of skin walkers they will appear Are their irrational by your thinking? or is your contempt reserved for us?

The house we moved into 15 years ago is very active. Things go missing or get moved. And it's annoying. But that's the point - to make you doubt your self. Sometimes it's us - we all misplace things - but _many_ times it's not. Our pet sitter was asked not to go into the basement. I didn't want the cats down there. But, of course she went. And asked me if I was aware of the portal in the one corner. I told her that's why I didn't want the basement door opened.

I remember the article that came out in the Record-Jounal about the family that was renting it, the stories they told were hair raising to be honest. The house used to be a funeral home, so you can imagine it had a lot of spiritual energy in it. I think it also depends if you are sensitive to that and if you are, you are more apt to have experiences. I live in a very old house that is haunted, and I have had some experiences here, same with the previous house I lived in..

Anybody who believes these things actually happened should also join their local chapters of "The Earth Is Flat", "We've Never Gone Into Space", "9/11 Was An Inside Job" and "Roswell Aliens Are Real" clubs to be amongst those with similar IQs.

Just because you don’t believe it doesn’t mean people throughout history, from different locations around the world, did not see anything. Even a Roman senator wrote to someone else speaking of strange things happening in the villa he had moved into. You think you know everything 😂 Well please solve Cancer, inflation, crime, lack of affordable housing, addiction…
