With Halloween right around the corner, I thought it would be appropriate to finally tell the world about our spooky happenings at the House of Pain (built in 1917). Is our house haunted? We kept telling ourselves that there is no way, but so much evidence has surfaced over the months that we are starting to think otherwise… It all started before I even owned the house and received the $8,000 tax credit…

Here is a photo of the back side of the house, showing a window that is part of my room in the attic. When we were getting the house inspected by a licensed inspector, he started by checking the outside of the house with a pair of binoculars. He noticed that this top attic window was CLEARLY cracked from one corner to the other, with a chunk of the top right corner actually missing. He snapped a photo of this, and we went on to inspect the rest of the house from the inside. When we got up to the attic, he examined the window from the inside and the window seemed to be in perfect condition. He checked his camera again, which still showed this window being severely cracked. Spooky, huh?

These photos were taken from inside of the garage. Dave and I were cleaning out the garage one day when Dave accidently sprayed the wall with water. We were both quite shocked. The water made visible characters on the wall. We then drenched all the walls of the garage and found that this secret writing was everywhere. One wall is full of strange names such as “Cornelius”, another says “Ma is lazy”, while others are covered in arithmetic.

There has been lots of other evidence that we don’t have photographic evidence of. Matt swears that one night he saw someone in the corner of his room staring at him. Joe possibly might be possessed. Approximately four nights a week I hear him screaming jibberish at the top of his lungs in his sleep. Joe and I have both been caught having strange sleep walking tendencies. And who knows about Dave, he is locked in his room 85% of the day.

I hope I didn’t tick off any ghosts  by writing this.

On a lighter note, does anybody have any halloween costume ideas for the four of us? Please let us know!
