Well, yesterday evening, I walked the dog again.  Keep in mind, I always follow the same route, always ending up back at the abandoned creepy house to let the dog do her business.

Now, in the evenings, it is not common for the wife to go with us, but yesterday, she felt like having a walk with us, so we went. And before we came back in the house, we ended up at the creepy house.

Ever since the last visit, the wife swears that she's had an uneasy feeling. She even said she awoke one night, thinking someone was hovering over her next to the bed.

Which makes her actions yesterday evening all the more puzzling, because when we got there, she walked right up on the porch and looked in the windows.

I told her the ghosts were gonna get her, etc. and gave her a hard time about it.

Well, she normally gets up a few minutes earlier than I do, but this morning, she comes back upstairs and says, "Will you come down here? You have to see something."

When we got downstairs, she asks me if I had gotten up during the night. I had, but hadn't gone downstairs. And, I didn't hear anything out of the ordinary when I was up. So, she walks to the bathroom.

She has a small basket of hair care products that she keeps by the door. One bottle of hairspray was out of the basket, lying in the middle of the floor.

The second, a pump sprayer, was on the rug.  The sprayer top had been removed and all of the liquid inside had poured onto the rug.

Her deodorant is out on the counter, and it has liquid makeup smeared all over it.

And then she drags me into the kitchen, where two drawers and a cabinet door are all open.

She hadn't even thought of her little escapade up on the front porch of the house until I reminded her. Now she's freaked out.

To be honest, I am a little bit too...

I homeschool my four kids. A while back we had two foster kids, sisters, with us for 2.5 months. One was five and the other was four. The four-year-old was .. well, there's no other word for it, creepy. She would just stop and randomly stare at the same spot for up to two hours straight and nod her head/shake her head and talk. She would also wake us up at night talking and we'd go in to check on her and she'd be out of bed, sitting on the floor, staring at the ceiling or wall, and carrying on a conversation. Neither sister had any significant behavioral issues and they were both sharp as tacks. I chalked it up to an overactive imagination.

I took my kids out to the Marietta Confederate Cemetery in Georgia as part of a history field trip (again, I homeschool) and the sisters tagged along. They had ZERO idea what we were there for or what it was, even MY kids. I hadn't told them anything about where we were headed, just that we'd learn some valuable history.

We barely got inside the gate and that little girl stops, looks around and says, "How come the soldiers don't have guns with them?"

One of my kids said, "What soldiers? Where?"

The little girl, I swear to God, acted like we were all pulling her leg and pointed all around. "All of them! Right there."

I said, "How many?"

She just shrugged and kept pointing all around us. At one point she likened them to G.I. Joes --- my son has a big collection of them. I didn't want to freak my kids out (or myself any further) so I started to talk about the war. A little while later she pointed to my son Elijah, who is a very black child we adopted from Africa and said, "Oh. You go in there with them."

She pointed to another section we hadn't gotten to yet and that I wasn't even aware of. It was the slave lot.

I was very happy when they went back home a couple of days later. I think I had gooseflesh for days after that. Hell, I have gooseflesh right now remembering it.

This time, she's standing at the front door, hair bristled up, like she's ready to kill something.

I open the inside front door and see that one of the patio chairs that we keep on our front porch was moved over in front of the storm door.

This thing doesn't move in the heaviest windstorm. No way a cat could have done it. I have never found it moved from where it usually is.

I am getting really creeped out by this. Getting to be too many things happening to chalk it all up to coincidence.

Freaked my sister out.

I think children can sense things the rest of us cannot - an ability they have that we lose as we grow to adulthood.

Lying in bed last night on our tablets after the chair event (seeing as now neither of us can sleep)...

Out of nowhere, I her a sound of pinging glass. Like someone flicked the rim of a wineglass with their fingernail.

Dog gets up, runs. I grab my gun.

Nothing out of place. Don't know where the glass sound came from.

Eventually we all three settled down and I was finally was able to get some sleep, but I woke up a lot...

My mom and I were in her yard staining a pergola last week, we were standing under it and brushing stain on the top so we were looking up. It was a very sunny day with a blue sky and hardly any clouds as it's been for over a week.

My mom stops and starts looking intently in one spot, and after a few minutes asks me to look at a point in the sky and tell her if I see anything. I scan around and didn't see anything right off, but after a few seconds noticed what at first looked like some kind of weird distortion. It was hard to make my eyes focus on it at first but once I finally pinpointed the exact spot to look at, it looked like a bubble in the sky. A clear, weird bubble shape just floating in the sky.

I wanted to see what my mom said before I told her what I thought I was seeing, so I told her I thought I saw something but couldn't make it out and asked her what she saw. She said she was seeing what looked like a clear plastic beach ball that was floating around in the sky.

We can't figure out what this thing could be, the best thing we could come up with is a weather balloon. But we live way out in the sticks, hard to figure why or how a weather balloon would be out in our area, but still plausible. The main thing was that whatever it was, it wasn't a color. It was like you could barely make out the outline of it around the circular edge, but you could see through it as if it were made of clear plastic. It reminded me of the Predator movie where the predator could make himself transparent, but you could barely detect the digital distortion where he was at. That's kind of the way it looked from where we were at.

It didn't seem to be very high either, maybe twice the heights of the treetops but it was hard to tell, maybe a little higher, maybe a little lower. We both had our phones with us and took pictures of where it was at, but the pictures did not show anything. I even opened them with Photoshop and magnified them in the spot where we were seeing this thing hoping to at least see some pixelation that would show a defined edge, but nothing showed.

Anyway, it was just weird. We both saw it but just can't explain what it would have been. Maybe a weather balloon, if not that I'm clueless. We would have never seen it if we hadn't been out there staining that pergola. Another thing I was thinking at first is maybe we were both high from the stain fumes, lol. But we both saw it, and we were in the yard with a gentle breeze so it's not like there was inadequate ventilation. Oh that's another thing, even with that gentle breeze, whatever this thing was it would kind of easily hover and float around but did not float with a breeze. It reminded me of the way a drone might hover and move with breeze yet still stay in basically the same spot.

Any thoughts or ideas?

Burn sage in every room and closet. Open all the windows and doors, work from the basement up, and from the upstairs attic access down. Push it towards an open door and then seal the property with the salt.

One such call was at the home of a neighbor two doors down, elderly couple, sweetest folks you've ever imagined.  Loved em to pieces...

In my own belief, it's not at all uncommon for spirits to "hang around" familiar places, places they loved or were happy (home, etc).

Sometimes I think spirits are just confused, and don't really understand they are dead for awhile.

And "awhile" to them, in the afterlife, might be a few hundred years as we measure time, maybe longer.

Apparently, the house across the street was built in 1914, according to Zillow. I would have thought it to be newer than ours.

Over the course of 100 years, probably hard to tell what all has gone on in there. Wife even supposed that since it was abandoned, the creepers could be using it for satanic rituals.
