I bought a house a month ago. It was built in 1900. When I first came to look at it I felt a presence with me but thought nothing of it. It didnt scare me or make me feel uneasy so I just let it go and didnt give it another thought. The second time I came to see it again to make sure I wanted to purchase it , I was walking into the master bedroom which use to be a garage at one time, and I saw a shadow and felt like someone was watching me. Again I didnt feel anything negative so continued with my walk through. We bought it and moved in. Two weeks into the move I was woken up at 4 am in the morning to a loud crash. I went through the house and nothing was wrong so I went back to bed. As I lay there I noticed a shadow around my tv stand. I continued to watch this area and after about 5 minutes I saw a little boy standing there. At first I was surprised as I have never seen full spirit with my eyes. I heard him giggle and he disapeared. Every night since that first night he appears at the same time and now he will move around and still just giggles. I did find out after some research that this house use to be a boarding home back in 1925 and it was for mentally challenged clients. since finding this out I have heard some other laughter through the house at night but havent seen anyone else but the small boy. I dont have a problem with him here as I think he is cute but I do have to wonder why he is sticking around. Also I have felt the presence of a young man. in the age range of 20 and recently I did find out that the owners son committed suicide in my bedroom when it was the garage but he doesnt show himself to me like the little boy does, I just feel him around at different times. If this is what it means to have a haunted house its not so bad except for the loud crashes that jump me awake when he wants my attention.

I have a little boy of about 12 in my house. I have seen him proplerly once but he usually hangs around a a shadow or a feeling that he is there. I told him as long as he doesn't scare me or make me feel something bad he can stay and he has stayed out of my way so I think we have an understanding. He has made me jump a few times but I don't think he means any harm really. I find spirits scarey so I have never had the guts to ask why they hang around.

We used to have a lady, it was quite strange really as I'm not sure whether she was a spirit at the house or was something more to me, my dad used to talk of a lady he would see quite often, he didnt know her but always felt she was an auntie, anyway my dad was very ill and had severe mental health problems which lead to him doing a lot of things dangerous to himself so we always needed to be one step ahead of him at all times but this was not always easy as I also had three very young siblings to help care for too, I was in my early teens when I first felt her, she came to me and just seemed to stay by my side, I assumed everyone felt her, without fail for everytime I felt her presence near my dad self harmed within 3 days of her visit so I always took her presence as a warning for my dad, perhaps this lady was who visited my dad, I always called her Alice and my dad also called his lady Alice. Since my dad has passed I have spoken to my mum about the presence of the lady and she admitted that she never felt her although she did sense we had someone at home. We also had a little girl who I would regularly feel at the house although this may have been my sister watching over us

Your story gave me chills and years to my eyes.. If I were you Id keep this little boy company...

What an interesting story. I personally feel that this isnt spirit but infact the energy that you would know as being a ghost.
In my oppinion, ghosts are like an imprint or echo in time that causes like a glitch in the matrix, a hologram that replays over and over a bit like a film projection (I always think of the part in one of the starwars films) The way I see it this, negative energy vibrates at a slow frequency so where something particularly sad or upsetting occurs the energy would become so slow it becomes residual and dense. it is this residual energy that becomes so dense it appears like a transparent version of what was once solid and can sometimes be seen by us (apparitions like you saw) This energy cannot be communicated with as it has no mind, it is not spirit. Ghosts cannot harm you so there is nothing to worry about. I feel that this is what you saw and I bet that over time you will notice that the little boy does the same thing over and over. Let me know what you think
Love and Light

When I first was going with my wife she told me not to get wierd if I saw anything like a ghost in the house.Seems the clock maker who owned the home prior died and stayed in the house to take care of my wife. One evening we were taking a shower and the water turned on in the sink by itself.This sent me into a while of not sleeping until my wife said she had a talk with him and told him I would be taking care of her now and thanks for the help over the past many years.After this things quieted down but in the mornings the front bay doors would rattle away and I would get that feeling but knew he was harmless. Finally I got tired of the rattles and told him what to do to move on. After that all stopped and I got many nites rest with no concern.

i saw a little boy at the top of my stairs in blue jeans. With dark hair with a widows peek and chubby face.
I called to my friend, but she didnt see anything and said maybe its your son waiting to be born (cause i wanted a boy)
A few days after that i found out i was pregnant, i never saw the little boy ever since and i had a little boy nine months later.
My son has dark hair with a widows peek and a chubby face.

It must be something to do with houses of that era! I live in a house circa 1900, and there's a little boy who sits on my stairs. I've lived here 6 years and it has taken me this long to be sure of him as I've never seen him and it's more of a presence I feel than anything else. I've sometimes felt him when I've been tidying my children's toys away, but mostly he just seems to sit on the stairs. He's never done anything to upset me, but I do wonder why he's around. I've found myself talking to him though!

speacking of ghost children. my mum was in bed one night and was woken up in the mid morning by the sound of children singing and one mans voice.

there is a field in front of the house and thats where the noice was coming from. They were singing "camp town ladies" and then she here them running away and giggling.
She tried to get out of bed to see what the noice was but coulnt budge.she told my step dad about it next day.

That same morning when my little sister woke up she went straight to Geoff and said "Dad i heard children in the field last night singing and there was a man with em. and i couldnt get out of bed.

My step dad took my sister sraight to my mum to repeat what she d heard.

it turn out that years ago a man befrended loads of children and he murderd the all.
