Help, My apartment is haunted! - Page 2 - ZEFRANK.COM

zenbabe · 10-04-2002, 02:38 PM

Yeah, some wierd goings on for sure, I don't know what to think about the door thing, I guess stranger things have happened. We saged up the place and haven't heard from the ghost since, i have a guy coming out to check for a gas leak, omg, I hope there isn't a leak, but then again, at the same time, I hope that is what it is!!

Ok I haven't always believed in hauntings, but last night I was sitting on the sofa with my dog and he started growling at the chair across from us. Let me just point out that he's not a barker, so I started to get nervous. He litterally just kept growling while staring at the chair. Finally I picked him up and put him on the ground and he went over to the chair as if someone was there and started growling and biting at it as if someone was sitting in it. It really freaked me out.

It's an old vintage place and now I'm starting to believe.

Dogs and cats have always been credited for having the ability to see ghosts, I would take it seriously, that is so freaky though!!

Don't worry *too* much about having a gas leak...
I mean, it's kind of stinky and you probably shouldn't walk around with a lighted match... but it isn't toxic.

Your heater is warm even tho' it's not on probably because the pilot is lit... that's a good thing for winter ('cos you'll probably be needing it soon!) but you can have the gas co. turn it off in the summer (if you stay that long!). I put mine out and light it myself... easier than having them come out to the apt.

my older brother first brought up the subject that our house might be huanted, and i am beginng to beleive it myself. here's why:
last saturday, my mom came home from cleavland and we all decided to go out to eat. Well, i had some clothes in the dryer and my dad decided to open up the dryer and stop it before we left. the clothes were WET and COLD. we come back about...oh, i dont know... about an hour later and when i go to check on my laundry, i find that the clothes are now WARM and DRY. the dryer door was still open. very strange...
also:
i often like to stick out my feet from under the covers @ night, and i will sometimes feel somone stroking my foot...when noone is in my room 'cept me.

my brother was home alone a few nights ago and heard someone breathg as well as someone opening up our mother's closet.

things might be moved around...lost and found in completely different places.

my older brother stays up late, and one night he swore he heard voices-that of a man and a young girl coming from outside. he went outsde to find no one was there.

anyone have any conclusions?...i would like some answers on these rpoblems.
and zenbabe-have you found out the history of the apartment you are staying in?...the buiding itslef?
garlic...well, at least you wont get any vampires aorund! but actually, that doesnt work. just trust me on this one.

lapietra · 10-09-2002, 02:31 AM

If you do have a ghost, sounds like s/he likes you a lot! Dries your laundry & pets your feet... everyone should have a ghost like that...

zenbabe · 10-09-2002, 05:07 PM

Well the garlic smell is back, I am buying a gas meter today to check for a leak, but the weird thing is, the smell doesn't linger, it is just there all of the sudden and so strong it burns your eyes, and them blam, its gone! But even worse, now the place has been taken over by ants coming out of the ceiling!! SOMEBODY HELP ME!!!

Frieda · 10-09-2002, 05:30 PM

why are you still living there anyway?? get out! if there are ants, there probably are mice too, and roaches..

zenbabe · 10-09-2002, 05:38 PM

I just moved in here because my lease was up at my old place and I had to find a place fast! I also was only planning on staying here for a month (it is month to month) because I was planning on moving to the east coast, but I think I have changed my mind and am stuck in this rathole for the time being, I am looking for a new place though....

Frieda · 10-09-2002, 05:57 PM

aw that sucks.. hope you find a better place to live soon!

AllegroNg · 10-09-2002, 08:52 PM

So sorry about your living conditions, Zen

As for your bug situation - do what I do! If you are rendered defenseless, simply get a can of hairspray (furniture spray, mop&go, and windex are equally useless) and spray away, while doing the dance of scary insects.

Otherwise, I highly recommend Raid ant bait for all of your ant killing needs (just don't eat the stuff inside the trap!)

You've probably had all this advice before, what with your roach crisis.

Get. A. New. Home!!!

yea lapeitra, i guess it does sound nice, bt at the same time it is kinda creepy...
ah well. whatcha gonna do, huh?

bealeblues · 10-10-2002, 04:46 PM

i hate that you are having the problems zen, but i will say that if you do have ghosts, i would be jealous.... i'd love to spend some time in a haunted house just to see what it would be like and to get the rush....i've tried staying overnight in some of the 'haunted' plantations in louisiana, but i suppose the ghosts don't perform on command.... maybe next is the non-tourist voodoo section of new orleans....

zenbabe · 10-10-2002, 06:06 PM

YAY!! I won in the battle of enduring freedom of insects!!! I straight kicked ant butt!! I also feng sheu'd the place and it looks alot better, thanks for all the help!!!!

Eruantale · 10-16-2002, 05:05 PM

I suppose I could go on about how ghosts are simply a bit of electrical charges in the air, and how the door could've opened because the lock isn't as proper as you may think... but that wouldn't be any fun, would it?
