First experience:
Was young, I think in like 4th or 5th grade. Had a friend at school who lived with his mom but would visit his dad every other weekend, just a few apartments down from me. Well, this apartment had some sort of history to it but none of us (me, him, or his dad) knew exactly what it was. All we know is that in the bathroom was a huge part of the wall that was patched up.
Anyhow, I used to stay the night over there on same nights he was there. His dad would always say how weird things were going on in the apartment, mainly finding books from the shelf being on the floor, cabinets being opened, etc when he woke up or came home from work.
One night I was over there...watching TV with my friend on a sofa bed that extended out to be right in front of the TV. His dad went to go take a shower.
While his dad went into the shower and we were watching TV, we heard a huge thump. Next thing we know, like three books flew off the bookshelf near the breakfast bar, clear across the living room, past us, and slammed against the window. One of the books being a heavy dictionary that actually cracked the window. Immediately after the books flew off the shelf, the cabinets int he kitchen started opening and slamming shut on themselves for a few seconds and we saw this whitish figure appear out of nowhere, go towards the kitchen exit (a doorway with no door) and as it went through one side of the door way it never came out the other. Was the end of that...
His dad came running out the bathroom (dressed :-p) all freaked out saying something ran him over in the bathroom and knocked him hard into the wall....which was the huge thump we heard right before the books flew off the shelf. I remember something about him saying a part of his leg was very cold....and the next day, that cold spot on his leg was a huge bruise. (Note: If you watch paranormal shows today, whenever someone feels a direct cold spot on their body it's believe to be when a ghost or something touches you)
Anyhow, it freaked him out so much that he moved into another apartment by the next weekend...and I would not stay over a friends house for years after that because I was too scared to.
After they moved out, we learned that that huge patched up wall was where a woman and her dog were found murdered there some years before. Apparently she and her husband were very voilent with each other and into drugs and stuff (FYI, I lived in a poor section of Orlando back then)....
Scary stuff. And there were two other people there who can say this happened...if they can ever be tracked down, lol.
Second experience (a few years lter):
So I have never really been close to most of my relatives. I have a rather big family (father has 3 brothers, 3 sisters, and numerous half-brothers and half-sisters), but probably only really knew two of my aunts and a few cousins. Anyhow, one of my aunts that I knew the best was sorta like a grandmother in a way (I never knew any of my grandparents). Anyhow, she got cancer which was terminal...
Continuing, one night I suddenly woke up and there was this blue shadowy figure at the end of my bed...that straight up said, "Everything will be OK." ... I was so scared that I just closed my eyes as tight as I could for a few seconds and then reopened it and the figure was going. I remember thinking it sounded like my aunt's voice at the time but was to scared to really think it could possibly be her.
Come the next day, I'm at school....when I suddenly am told to go to the office for some emergency. I go there, and my parents are waiting to pick me up...why? Because my aunt had died during the night in the hospital where she had been for awhile.
Freaky shit, eh?
To further confirm this weirdness...at the funeral, my uncle (you know, my aunt's husband) was talking to my dad saying how he knew the instant she passed away...because she came and talked to him...as a, I quote, "a blue light," saying "everything would be OK" and she would "always be with him" ... so not only did we both see a blue figure, but we also heard similar things.
That's my last full on experience. And hopefully my last one...
Where I live now, in my parking garage in my old spot, when I'd get in my car, there was awhile where'd I always feel as if someone was watching me....then check my rearview mirror and then I'd see some shadow or something like run across the review mirror out behind my car. I thought it was just me, until on the same day both my roommate and my girlfriend suddenly talked about the same thing happening to them. Freaky! We've all since moved parking spots (for reasons unrelated)...and haven't really had this happen since.
In my roommates old place, him and his roommate would always talk about how they would leave...and when they would come back counter doors and drawers would randomly be open. The place they had lived wasn't occupied for a couple years before they moved in...which was odd, since the place was NOICE for the price when you consider it's in SF....the owners son lived upstairs, so I have a feeling his mother or something lived in the unit previously and maybe died.
