Haunted Houses

Recommended Posts

I know it is only the beginning of October but oh well....Bored at work, I was googling places to go for a haunted house night with some friends. Then I ran across a link to haunted houses, plantations, specific areas around GA that are believed to be haunted.

Question: Have you ever experienced some strange sitaution that you can not explain but as a ghostly experience? And if you know of any haunted houses or places to go to get the crap scared out of people please clue all of us in!! HEHE

We have a haunted house up here in Chattanooga in one of our caves in Lookout Mtn. (it's the same one that has Ruby Falls)... anyway, I went there last year with a bunch of girls from a sorority of where I went to college and it was pretty freaky being inside that cave because they would turn the lights completely off and then they would walk us through this really narrow area and we could literally feel people breathing on us. At the very end when we walked out, there were porta toilets set up so that they were to our backs and this guy jumped out with a chainsaw and chased us to the bus... I literally jumped on the guys back that was in front of me and the girl behind me jumped on my back. The really fun part was, there was about 25 of us that went and they split us up in three groups and being in the first group, we got to watch the other two groups come through and watch chainsaw dude scare the hell out of them! :D

Not quite the same, but i went on a nighttime ghost tour in old town Savannah once. It was a really cool tour learning the history and hauntings of an incredibly old and historical city.B|

Never look down on someone, unless they are going down on you.

It was tres cool. We got to stand right where he walked and where he adducted women and saw where the killings took place. The guy that gave the tour, man he was freaky too. It seemed like we walked everywhere that night and we ended up at a tavern on our last stop (I think tour guide man was really just some random guy filling us yahoo Americans with a bunch of bullcrap, but it was still fun :D)

I've had 2 experiences with haunted houses.

One place I lived in Harrisburg, PA had a ghost on the third floor. It used to open all my cupboards and kitchen drawers when I was away. I'd leave for the weekends to visit a GF and come back to every single door/drawer opened. One time while I was home, it opened the back door, let my dog out and then shut the door behind it. I didn't see the door open and close, but I heard it slam shut and then saw the dog appear outside when he should have been inside. It was impossible for the dog to have opened the door (spring-loaded latch requiring LOTS of effort to open), and I've never known a dog to close a door behind it (much less slam the door shut). A guy who lived there before me told me the place was haunted, but I didn't believe him until I lived there.

A place an ex-GF lived in Lititz, PA was haunted too. I always felt weird on the second floor, and I came to "believe" one day when I felt the classic "cold air passing right through me" on a warm summer evening. That was truly strange. It wasn't a breeze, but just a feeling of cold that was there one second and gone the next.

In neither place did I ever see anything.

In Savannah I used to live off of Abercorn St and E. 22nd.. well anyways this place was an old nun sanctuary and supposedly some of them died/murdered adn they were burried on the property.. My friends and I could get into every room but the bell tower (where the priest supposedly killed himself) and at night if you walked alone you would hear your name and have that feeling like someone was walking right behind you! very creepy I used to run from the door to our apt. Oh yeah go to the Juliet Gordon Lowe house, when you walk through the pictures eyes follow you....

OK, everyone should post about the haunted sites where they live!

I live in Frederick, MD, so around here everything is about the civil war. There are Civil War battlefields all around here. The Confederate troops actually marched right up Market Street here & took Frederick for a $200,000 ransom or something. So there's all kinds of ghosts from that era in historical buildings around here.

In Baltimore I went on a midnight Halloween ghost tour. They showed us Edgar Allen Poe's grave. Apparently every year on Poe's birthday (Jan 19) some mysterious figure all dressed in black shows up at the grave, and leaves three red roses and a partially-drunk bottle of French cognac.

Also the tour went beneath the Presbyterian church to see the graveyard that was partially UNDER the church. Sorta like catacombs. Land in the city of Baltimore was at a real premium back then, so they had to make some of the burial grounds under the church.

So you can go down in there & see all these old gravestones. Lots of children used to die in those days of epidemics, smallpox, diphtheria, etc. So there's this one room down there with SHELVES of little coffins. Some of the coffins have broken open and a few of the SKULLS of these children are lying right at your feet!!:o scary, but mostly, very sad.:(

Back then vagrants, thieves & other criminals found a way to sneak under the church to spend the night there in the graveyard. Because of the type of people hanging out down there, several murders took place down there.

so if any place is haunted in Baltimore, its gotta be this place.

Also in Baltimore is a legend about a stone statue in another cemetary which comes to life at night. Her name is "Black Aggie".

There is a place in Birmingham, AL that is freaking awesome, and scary as hell. It's set in an old steel mill that is on the national register of historic places. The mill does have its own actual ghost legends and past sightings, so it's a perfect place to stage a haunted house thing. Who knows? You might not know the difference between real and fake! :o :ph34r:

back in da day at the horse ranch in texas - my mom always said we had a ghost in da house. she was a stay at home mom and therefor was the only one that was bothered by this said ghost. anyways - awhile back we found out our house was built on land where apparently the indians stayed (ya'll don't make funnies)(i know indians stayed all over the land)- we found tons of arrowheads - so perhaps she was right.

We totally had a ghost in our house when I was a kid!

It would always go into my mom's room and steal her pot. No one could explain it!

I don't know if this qualifies, but I took a really weird photo in Ireland.

We were at a site in the Aran Islands called "Seven Churches" which is pretty much exactly what it sounds like. Seven churches built almost on top of each other, with graveyards in the empty spaces between.

i took a photo of a tombstone, just because I thought it was pretty. When I got home, I printed everything out without really looking through it. I handed the stack of photos to my brother, and about halfway through, I hear him say "what the hell is that?" I look at the image and it looks like there is a bright round white light floating right in front of the tombstone. I thought it was my printer being weird, so I looked at the image in the camera. Same white light. I sent the image to Olympus to make sure there was nothing wrong with my camera, and they told me that it didn't look like any errors they were familiar with, so "whatever's in the picture was probably really there" especially since I had no problems with the camera before or after this particular shot.

To this day, I've got no clue what that light is.

It's the boogy-man.

This makes me wonder. If dead people can appear in photos, rattle chains, float around scaring the crap out of people and be seen on film and video, then why don't they just grow some damn balls and walk around like normal people and stop their whining?

Just curious.

There's a "haunted house" thingy in Philadelphia called the 13 floors of hell, but it's one of those places where actors dress up all scary & jump out at you.

so which kind of haunted house are we talking about: 1) The ones that are all done up for Halloween & have actors dressed up, or 2) Old places that are actually supposed to be haunted & people who believe in ghosts actually come there & try to make contact.

Two different things entirely. Which are you people talking about?
