Nah, It sounded too much like another show trying to cash in on the paranormal craze.  (I guess all of em are).

I love Celebrity Ghost stories though!  Some of those are a little scary!

you got it about right. but that chip coffee guy is legit in my book.

i like celeb ghost stories and my ghost story too.

that's very interesting. can't say i wouldn't be scared. there is a family member of my wife whose house is haunted by a little boy. it's so well known that any time people visit her, they tell the spirit not to follow them home (which it had done in the past).

one story that sticks with me, is that she was sitting on the couch reading one night, and in the reflection of the tv (which was off) she saw the little boy at the top of the stairs, yet she couldn't see him directly. she then saw him in the middle of the stairs, and then again at the bottom. she finally told him to stop that he was scaring her, and he went away. they've also had poltergeist activity, with candles and whatnots flying off of shelves.

Wow see...that would scare me... stuff flying off of shelves.  I know that I've gone into rooms where I've turned off the lights...and the lights are back on.....and yes...I know that I've turned them off!  Not sure I would like having a little boy scaring me!

by the by mary, your story caused me to have a dream about seeing an apparition last night. nothing too scary, just thought it was odd.

That would have freaked me out.  Lol!

I have a cousin who bought a "known" haunted house.  Supposedly the sightings there are very much like what happened to you.

See, that little boy would freak me out too.

Can you imagine trying to be ..."intimate" with your spouse ...knowing that little boy could come and go as he pleased and was all the time watching?  I couldn't function under those circumstances.  

(Yeah...that'd be my excuse).  Lol!
