RE: One of my ghost experences
In 1970,I was living in Houston,Tx.I was friends' with a Gay couple,who lived across town from me..One of two men developed cancer to the point,he was given pain medication by syringe..His disease cost them their savings,and his partner was forced to take a second job..As my poor friend couldn't be left alone,I went over to help take care of him,after work,and on my one day off..Living so far from me,and with my own apartment lease ending,I rented an apartment in same building as my friends..
It was a one bedroom apartment,nothing special..The first night,after moving in,I was asleep..I awoke to a loud crash,like breaking dishes/glassware..I searched the apt.,but found nothing broken..I went back to sleep,only to have the worst nightmare I can ever recall.
The next night,I was over at my friends apt.,two doors down from me.I had just finished helping him eat some soup.We were in the living room,and my friend asked me if I heard water running..I turned down the TV,and I did hear water running..Their apt.was on the second floor,facing the street.I followed the noise,and discovered that there was water,in a thin stream,coming from the wall,between the front windows.It was puddling up on the carpet.I ran to the kitchen to get a pan to catch the water..I returned with a pan,only to discover that the water had stopped,and the wall was completely dry.The water remaining on the carpet was the only indication that what we saw,had occurred.
Puzzled,I went in the kitchen and straightened it up.I returned to the living room.Within 5 minutes,there was a loud crash that came from the kitchen.I ran into the kitchen to see that the large florescent ceiling fixture had completely fallen onto the floor.I went to get a broom,and as I entered the hallway to their storage closet,I saw what I thought was a man.He turned from me,and entered their bedroom..I raced back to my friend to ask who was in the apt. with us..My friend looked so relieved,and said:"Oh, you've seen him too,I thought it my medications making me see things"..
Later that night,back in my own apt.I was in bed reading..On my left side was wall..Out of the corner of my eye,I noticed movement.As I watched,I saw what appeared to be,a man and a woman,descending a staircase that wasn't really there.The female spirit was on the outside of this invisible staircase,the man,on her left.The man spirit had the females arm,and his lips were moving,but I heard no sound.Then,suddenly,the female spirit threw back her head and silently laughed,as a response to what the male spirit had said to her,I assume..They continued down through the floor,until they disappeared.They were not solid-looking,semi-transparent,actually.The female spirit was wearing a very old fashioned looking dress.It was white in color,trimmed with a faded looking burgundy material..He was dressed in a dark cut-away jacket,dark pants and white shirt..I decided to sleep in my living room that night..Lights on..
Two days later,I am getting dressed for work..I enter my walk in closet..I saw what looked like a man sitting on the closet floor..I took him for Hispanic..He was wearing a serape' ,and had a large sombrero on his head,covering his face..I was so shocked,I didn't do anything,I just stood there and stared..This spirit slowly lifted his head and looked at me..I will never forget his eyes,they glittered and flickered like bright gold..I knew at that very instant that this thing before me was evil and dangerous..I left the closet,and worn my previous days shirt,preferring that to my having to go back into that closet..
Of course all of this worried me,and I really couldn't discuss it with friends..I saw the apt. manager and asked her if there were any other 1 bedroom apts. available..luckily,there were..I paid a fee,and moved into another apt..Even more lucky,this one had no spirit activity..
A couple of months later,I was out in front of the apt.building,washing my car..An old man was walking by,and came over to me..He asked if I lived in the building,I replied that I did..He then told me he had lived in that neighborhood his entire life.He asked me if I knew what used to stand where the apt. building was now..I replied that I had no idea..He told me there used to be a large mansion that had been converted into a funeral home..
My friend passed away before my lease was up,so,I moved away from that building..
I hope this was of some mild interest..=) Ken
