PostSubject: Haunted house   Haunted house Icon_minitimeWed Oct 18, 2006 6:44 pm

When I lived in Basking Ridge NJ, I had a huge bi-level that was built in the early 60's. Even though it was like the house from the movie "The Money Pit", because everything was always broken and in need of repair; it did have its good points, like a pond, a babbling brook, and an 8 person hot tub.

But, it also had a ghost affraid. Only a short time after we moved there in 1992, I noticed that every night at exactly 2:00am, footsteps could be heard slowly walking up the stairs from the lower level, and the stairs would creak...creak....creak. Then the foot steps would proceed down the hallway toward out bedroom, softly, as if it were someone wearing bedroom slippers. Capt. Marvel (Mrs. Kephra) did not hear the sounds at first, and when I told her about them, she told me it was my imagination. So I woke her up, and she promptly became a believer.

Every night then, I would lie there, holding my breath, and clutching my trusty 12 guage bird gun; but there was never anyone there. Then the sounds would be gone, and there would be peace in the house until next night. Gradually, we became accustomed to the sounds since whatever it was did not seem to be malevolent. There was one other manifestation though that bothered me. I had an office on the lower level which was always 10 degrees colder than the rest of the house --- no matter what I did. I really didn't like to be in that room, but since I did a lot of work at home, I didn't have much choice.

This phenomena continued until July 16, 1994. I remember that day well because that was the day that comet Shoemaker-Levy fell into Jupiter. My wife and I were sitting on our sofa in the lower level watching the news about the comet, when a wave of intense cold passed over first the Capt., and then me. Our cat, a 22 pound blue torbie, jumped straight up into the air, and all its fur stood on end. The cat made a quick exit up the stairs.

Capt. M. said: "There's someone in the room with us!".

Well, I knew that something wasn't right, and I also knew that Capt. Marvel has mediumistic abilities, but is unable to act independantly in such circumstance. I had to take an active part by telling her what to do. I simply told her to ask whatever it was to identify itself, and that started a 'conversation' with the spirit.

After about 45 minutes, we had not only learned that the name of our ghost was "Tumac", we also learned why he was haunting our house. Tumac told us he was a member of a Lenape indian tribe who had lived in the area long ago. He was with a hunting party, and had an accident breaking his leg, preventing him from continuing on. The hunting partly left him with the intent of picking him up on their return and taking him back to their camp. Unfortuneatly two things happened.... a heavy snowfall, and Tumac died. His party was unable to locate him.

We asked Tumac why he was still here, and what he wanted. His response was that he couldn't leave until he had a proper burial ceremony, which would be difficult since his tribe was long gone. So we asked if we could perform the ceremony, and he agreed that that would satisfy his need. His explanation of what he needed was a funeral pyre, and for us to sit around it while beating on drums. Interestingly, this request related to some compulsions that we had been experiencing. One of which was to purchase an outside fireplace (which would have been illegal in our community), and the other was drumming on our Tupperware bowls.

The next day, we purchased the fireplace, and loaded it up with wood. We waited until 11:00pm, started the fire, and pulled up our lawn chairs and Tupperware. The fire burned smoky, and I was afraid someone would report us and bring down the Jersey police on us, but no one did. Instead, we sat there watching the smoke, and as quietly as we could, beat on our makeshift tom-toms. After a half hour, I could swear I started to see faces in the smoke, and when I looked around, it looked like there was twenty or so others around the fire with us. (No, I wasn't drinking). We sat there until the fire burned out.
My wife had one more communication from Tumac. He told us he was pleased, and he could now move on, but he said that if we ever needed his help, we only had to call his name. After that night, the footsteps in the house ceased, and my office warmed up. Tumac was gone to the happy hunting ground. Unfortuneately, it turned out that Tumac wasn't the only spirit haunting the house, but that's another story for another time.

Wonderful story of Tumac. I can't wait to hear what else you found out and how you dealt with that.

PostSubject: My next encounter   Haunted house Icon_minitimeSun Jan 28, 2007 3:09 pm

My next encounter with a ghost in my house was a little more costly. One summer day, I came home from work, parked in my driveway, and walked around to the back of my home. I often did that to see what deer or other animals were hanging out by my stream and pond. Often, there was a blue heron who would come and fish in my stream, and I was always on the lookout for it.

On the lower level of the house, I had a 25 x 25 ft room which contained some excercize equipment and a hot tub. The back wall of the room was made up of 3 sliding glass patio doors, so the entire back wall was glass.

As I came around to the back of the house, I turned around and saw that one of the patio doors was completely fractured, although the screen was unbroken. The glass was safety glass like in a car windshield, so the broken glass was still in the door frame, and the largest piece was about an inch square. The really weird thing about it though was that the broken glass contained an imprint of a person, complete with head, arms, torso and legs. It looked exactly like someone ran into it. Of course, that would have broken the screen on the outside.

$500 later, I had the glass replaced and the door was as good a new. The glass technician said it might have been caused by stone from my mower, but I mow my own lawn, and I would have seen it. Further, there was not place on the screen where a stone damaged it.

Was it a ghost? Well if it had happened only once, I'd probably say not, but 3 weeks later, the same thing happened again, with the imprint of a man in the broken glass.

What do you think? Ghost or just a chance happenstance?
