Ghost Sightings etc Time

15 years ago

I have some stories to tell.We bought this 1700 era precivil war farm . A Col.George Himes owned it in 1800.He was in the battle of gettysburg.

1.Anyway right after we moved in my daughter and I were in the basement doing crafts.It was between Halloween & Christmas.We heard footsteps and banging I said Oh I bet thats dad I better go up see if He needs something .I went up stairs no one there and the door was looked.

2.Another time just a few weeks later my son was home alone with 2 labs.He also was in the basement.He said it sounded like someone ran through the house.The dogs went crazy barking and all ran up the stairs He came up there was no one there.

3.One nite in bed the floor creeked .It sounded like someone comming up the staire walking towards my bedroom door I darn near had heart failure.I was waiting to see who it was,it was loud.

4.One nite in bed I could see back the hall to the back bedroom I always have a small light on for potty visits in middle of night.,I have my loom back there.I saw something move.Thats what caught my attention.My heart I think I stopped breathing.I think I saw ,hubby said I was dreaming ,I dont think so I saw a woman from the waist up,she had a bluish dress on with an apron tied in the back in a big bow.,her hair was gray in a bun.When I close my eyes I can still see her.Only saw top half of her.I thought I saw her arm moving like she was busy doing something.

5.My hubbys aunt gave me a little glass box maybe 2"square.It opens.I thought put on my knick knack shelf so I did.I thought push back against the wall I dont want it to fall,shes gone now.So I did.I went upstairs I heard a bang,I was the only one home and I wasnt vacumning or anything .I thought Ill see what it was when I go back down.I come down the little box was on the floor ,it didnt break but I dont see how it fell.

Our home was here during the battle of gettysburg there was only 3 homes in this neighborhood,the soldiers went down carlisle pike ,they went to houses for food ,shelter so Im sure they were here.I know 2 men passed away in the house although a house this old there were probably more.
