Okay, before you go and write me off as a complete lunatic \u2013 I do believe that my house is inhabited by more than just my roommate and myself. There have been too many coincidences with too many roommates and guests in the house to just attempt to write it off to chance.<\/p>\n
I have reason to believe that it is occupied by three spirits: Mildred, Harry, and Philip.\u00a0\u00a0 Mildred and Harry live upstairs, while Philip prefers the stairwell and downstairs.\u00a0 These are helpful spirits, not poltergeists nor malignant ghosts.\u00a0\u00a0 Philip has helped me correct situations in a few ways that I can’t describe \u2013 knocking here, tap dancing there, to let me know that things just aren’t “right” at the house at that time. The names came in dreams and “glimpses” to a former roommate and me that neither of us could explain.<\/p>\n
I first came to realize there was something at work in the house before I even purchased it when, upon preparing to return the key to the seller due to her ineptitude and penchant for lying, I heard a voice from the stairwell saying “Watch your back and I’ll take care of the rest”.<\/p>\n
A former roommate and I have heard Mildred singing in the upstairs rooms and when you try to focus in on her song, she stops.\u00a0 Harry is Mildred’s companion.\u00a0 Only once or twice have I heard a male voice mumble something in response to Mildred’s singing. Mildred also enjoys opening the bathroom closet door.\u00a0 A mutual friend, Kate Turney, came to the house and “pish-toshed” the idea of a ghost.\u00a0 She firmly closed the bathroom closet door and she and I went into what I was using as the office.\u00a0 Within 15 minutes, we heard the door handle turn and the door creak open.<\/p>\n
Philip lives downstairs.\u00a0 When you are upstairs, there are times when you can hear him practically running laps from the living room to the dining room to the kitchen, over the stair-stoop, and back to the living room.\u00a0 In fact, you can even track which room he is currently in by the sound.<\/p>\n
When I first purchased a digital camera for work (the Agfa ePhoto 307), I took it home to attempt to learn how to use it.\u00a0 That evening, in August 1998, I was to snap what I consider to be a picture of Philip in my living room.<\/p>\n
