Tenzo, I read your post about the haunting last night just before I shut the light off to go to sleep ... that was a really really bad idea ...
They never hurt me.
Worst that happened is I had a bunch of old playboys that kept falling off the shelf.
I just threw them out
No wait, that's not true. The bloody noses were bad.
Before I knew to keep the book on the shelf I was washing up in the bathroom. I looked down and the sink had a Lot of blood in it. I'd get bloody noses if the book was in the wrong place. And not just slightly, not like a little running down on my lip, it was like something out of Monty Python.
About four days after I sold the place and left I got a bloody nose.
I called the real estate agent and told her to tell them to put the book back on the shelf.
I haven't had a bloody nose since.
(but this is part of the stuff that I don't think people will believe)
I haven't thought about this for months. Thanks Guys
Thank you Tenzo for the best thread ever! I was going to ask if you left the book behind, glad you answered that. All through the last part of the thread, I kept asking how you could leave such an amazing home. You'd have had to drag me out screaming. Thanks for the updates and good luck shaking the spirits. lol
Just out of curiosity, did you disclose that the house was haunted? If it was me, I don't think I would, lest they think I was crazy.
1) Not sure it would have added to the resale value
2) If I can't see it, feel it, or document it; I'm not sure I can claim it.
As a postscript
I would often tell my friends at work. One was very interested and asked to see the house.
A few months after I left she went and talked to the new owners
They did get the message about the book and it is now on the book case.
For those who noticed, the inscription in the book as December 25th, 1912.
As far as I know, nothing happened on Christmas of last year. House is still there.
and the book; is still sitting on that library shelf.
Just like it has for the past 100 years.......
