In between my house now and the one I lived in then was an old Orphanage built in the 1800's and was still active when I lived at home. Just recently they tore it down and were starting to build houses on the property and they found over 300 human bodies burried there - no caskets or markers that had been there for over 100 years. I think it explains the stuff in the old house and that house had a vibe the minute you walked into it - I threw a fit the night before we moved into it because I hated it.

I was telling my one aunt how I felt about it years and years later and she said, "I'm so glad you said that because I could feel it too - there was something in that house."
Wow, you too? THis is starting to remind me of Halloween, lol!
