All of you that have been here a while probably remember my stories
about my ghost in my old apartment. I was always a very skeptical
person and didn't believe in this stuff until it actually happened
to me. Back in May 2004 I moved to a new apartment just 2 buildings
away from my old one. My complex is built on an old massacre ground
where 2 families of settlers were murdered by indians back in the
1800's. And I'm not the only person to experience weird happenings
in their apts. So 2 weeks ago I get out of the shower. Both of my
cats are outside on the patio. It's a fairly warm Texas day so I
don't have the A/C or the heat on. And my windows are closed. As I
enter my bedroom I see my rocking chair moving back and forth as if
someone is sitting in it. I'm not talking just a little movement but
a good old rocking session. I just say to myself, "Cool" and go on
about my business. So that night the light in my bedroom closet
gets turned on during the night. This closet is right next to my
rocking chair. I think that maybe I just left the light on by
accident. I do close the door and it was still closed in the
morning. So the next night I place a hand written note on my main
light switch in the bedroom to make sure the closet light is off. I
have to switch off the light with the note to go to bed. I'll be
damned if the next 3 mornings the light in the closet is back on.
The door was still closed. And it wasn't the cats because they don't
sleep in my bedroom with me. I keep the door closed so they can't
come in at night. So the only conclusion I can come to is that my
ghost is back. I have never felt threatened by him and I still
don't. Since I live alone I look at him as my protector.
I know a while back I was asked to post any new ghost events that
may occur. So here you go.

Cool! Do you think it is the same person/spirit? And is it possible
that it isn't the place that causes the haunting but you? Meaning
could this be someone connected to you like a relative or something?
I
believe my Mom causes some weird things to happen and has followed me
from North Carolina (where she never visited) to Maryland. In North
Carolina I was upset about something and said "I wish my Mom was
here..." and all of the sudden the hall light came on. Here I've had
a strange noise /light.

Or it could be a totally different spirit from the one in the old apartment,
regardless of the proximity.

In April, 1976 my grandmother died. My mom had been having problems with my
father and had been considering divorcing him for a long time. She told me
a couple of weeks after her mom died, she had what she thought was a dream
(but she wasn't really sure, and Mom just doesn't believe in stuff like this
so for her to mention it to me means it had a real impact). Her mother came
to her and said, "Chrissy, everything will be okay." It wasn't any time
later before my father said he needed to talk to my mom. He had finally
realized he had a drinking problem and quit. Grandma told my mom things
would be okay and they were.

Wow. That's really cool!
