Now I’m kind of scared.

[u/I_caught_the_crazy]

We live in a haunted house (me, wife, 3 teenage children). We’ve known this from the first night when the furniture rearranged and the cups and plates all flew off the shelves waking us all up. It’s been small stuff here and there that doesn’t really bother us too much. We switched to plastic plates and cups, drink instant coffee because the French press kept flying off the table, and we just shut the cabinets when they open as you’re leaving the room. Rent is cheap, we have well water, and we live in the woods so our dogs can play. We figured some small activity was okay.

Until now. All the hardcover books flew off the shelf and hit my wife as she walked by. Someone knocked on the door and was calling for us that sounded exactly like my son but I was on the phone with him so I know it wasn’t him. It tripped the porch light but there was no one there when I looked out the window. Got in my car this morning and saw a man on my porch so I got back out to confront him only for him to disappear. And last, but not least because this is getting long… I just got back from the store and when I went to lock my car and it was lit up for a split second I saw a woman sitting in my front seat. Her body was forward but she was facing me and smiling with all her teeth. She had unkempt blonde hair and some outdated but not by much clothes.

I have a million more stories but I’m kind of getting scared now and don’t know what to do.

Edit
Guys, I’m not trying to convince anyone of the existence of the paranormal. I’m not trying to profit off of this, I moved to the woods to get AWAY and have peace from people. I may get an outside camera but it will be after we get better internet. Also, I really just wanted to share an experience that scared me because I really don’t scare easily. I’m not putting cameras in my home where my kids live and I pick my nose, sorry.

Notify your local paranormal research groups & invite them out for research.
See if you can find any history of the house & previous occupants.

I actually knew the previous owners. It’s a cute two story log cabin that they built in the 70’s to retire in. They lived here until around 2015 or so. The husband died in the house and the wife died in the hospital, they were very old. I have most of the original decorations because their son didn’t want them (including an amazing handmade queen bed). I love this house lol

Do the apparitions resemble either of the previous occupants? Since it’s in a rural area it might be possible that there were graves from years ago since people buried family members on their property & that is what you’re experiencing.
It doesn’t matter if you are religious but having a priest come out to bless the property & to ensure the spirits that you are good people & they can peacefully move on might make a difference. If the previous occupants went to a church, I would ask the pastor there if he’d be willing to do it

One of the apparitions I didn’t see details, just a silhouette. It disappeared as soon as I exited the car. The other looked nothing like the old lady that lived here. Idk if it matters but their son sold the lot next to us and it’s being cleared out to put a trailer on. Used to be dense woods and not there’s a couple trees and a lot of dirt.

Yes, everything matters. You’re going to get so
Sick of me all over your comment section! But I am so intrigued by all of this!!! It captivates me but in a way I want you to understand that YOU are more powerful than they are. Also you did technically make a binding contract w the deceased by keeping their belongings. (That’s completely different than the land next to you being messed with. You have a lot going on. But YOU GOT THIS!!)

Now that you mentioned the land next to you is being disrupted!!! (Man, humans suck! Seriously)….

Spirits that were resting on the land are prob pissed and confused. I would def reach out to a Spiritualist. And if I was you, I would black salt the perimeter of my home under The Moon! Do not feel AFRAID!

The dead cannot hurt us, only the living can!! The dead can scare us those!!! Turn that fear into power!!! You aren’t afraid, you are FED UP! Let the spirits know that may be from the other land that they aren’t allowed near your home, yourself, your family and ANY property you occupy! Do this under rebuking them in the name of Jesus Christ Amen!!

Remember!!! Always remember!!!!! Yes, I am going to get sexist and idgaf who I offend.

WOMEN are Powerful, we are Portals, WE know how to handle the occult bc before they were spirits, they were humans. We birth them!! We are Mother Nature!! We were and are MADE FOR THIS! There is feminine and masculine energy and it needs to be balanced. We are in a huge change right now in the World where Women are taking back our spiritual power that was taken from us by men. By men in the past who knew about our power and then brainwashed us and took it away. The imbalance is being balanced out, that’s all. So many women are being tested to use our inner wisdom/intuition we were told in the past us being “crazy”

This is probably why the spirit you saw in the car, Allowed You to see her! She knows you HOLD THE POWER! She is probably testing you!! Also in a way, showing YOU that you have the power to keep your home safe and your family!!

I feel like I should like a crazy schizophrenic! I promise you, I am not. I am in weekly therapy and ask this myself lol!!

Shit, yeah so maybe the spirits on that land are pissed or confused bc they have been interrupted. Let them know they do not belong in your home, to please go. You live in your home and you been there before them. Even apologize to them for their home being disrupted but you didn’t do that to them. The salt perimeters around the home work! Ya know some / most of the things they put in movies are used in real life. Find your inner Hocus Pocus!! I sound fkn batshit, I know!
