in the house i used to live in i heard girls voices and footsteps and stuff, this was when i was about 13 and home alone, my brother saw a weird shadow in a particular room once when he was a kid, i saw it myself a few years later. It was freaky, the room was pitch black but the shadow was blacker-than-black somehow.
It was a very old house in the mountains, it had been extended over the years but two of the rooms dated back around 400 years (mud brick walls and shit) and people had died there during the great famine, according to church records. There was never a "bad" feeling about the place, my mother believes in the spirit world and said she thought they were benign and somewhat melancholic.
In countries like Ireland with a very long sad history it is said some people linger on after death caught between our world and beyond. Ruined towns and castles are scattered all over the country, there is a fortified monastery near where i lived that was built over a millenium ago, and i have definitely "felt" something there.
Ghost sightings are common in a continent as old as europe. Its mad to think how much has gone before me, one of our heritage sites, newgrange, was built two thousand years BEFORE the pyramids of egypt! but anyway yes i do believe something lingers on through the ages. ive seen and felt things that cant be explained by any science ,and often my thoughts drift back, back into the twilight zone.........

hmmm this pollen is bloody strong

peace
