weird ghost stuff
I don't want to start a debate about the existence or non-existence of ghosts/hauntings here, but something happened to my ex-girlfriend tonight that definitely makes you think
For about a year now, her sister has insisted that her bedroom is haunted. The sister claims that she woke up one night and saw an old man standing in the doorway to her room, watching her. When she turned on the light, the man was gone. A few weeks later, standing outside, the sister saw someone moving around in her room. Upon going inside, nobody else was home.
Nobody completely believed the sister, but weird stuff continues to happen. For example, one night the sister was sleeping over a friend's house; at about 3AM, my ex was awakened by the sister's stereo that just decided to turn itself on full-volume. And, no, the stereo doesn't have an alarm/delay on it. The sister will leave her lights on, go to the bathroom, and come back to find her lights off. Things will disappear and reappear somewhere else, the phone in the sister's room will ring but the rest of the phones in the house will stay silent, etc...
Well, the backstory to the house is that it was built for an old man who died before its completion. The sister has insisted for awhile that her disturbances MUST be the ghost of the old man. Silly, right?
Well, about 3 nights ago, my ex and I were talking on the phone (we are still friendly). For whatever reason, she had to use the phone in her sister's room that night. Somewhere along the line in the conversation, the "Pina Colada Song" got brought up as a joke in the conversation.
Tonight, my ex was reading in her living room, when she heard faint music coming from her father's office. Going in to investigate, she heard that it was the "Pina Colada Song," coming in staticy, like through a bad radio. It didn't take long to figure out that the music was coming from the speaker on her father's phone. Checking the phone, sure enough, the phone was on intercom, with the source coming from the sister's bedroom. Assuming that the sister was playing some sort of joke, my ex began walking toward the foyer and the stairs to the second floor... when the sister walked in through the front door. My ex had been home alone the whole time.
Upstairs, there was no sign that the phone in the sister's room had been used, and the stereo was powered off.
How strange.
