Jennifer wrote me this letter responding to my ghost story "Gram's Last Goodbye." This is what happened to her. This is used with her permission. -J

Hi Jennifer!

I was just reading your story about your gram's passing(I'm sorry) and I had some things happen to me that I thought I would share with you.

My grandpa died in 1988 of pancratic cancer. I was extremely close to him and his death affected very hard.

About 2 years ago, I was talking to my best friend about my grandpa and how much I missed him. I was telling her I often wished he would give some sort of sign to let me know he was near me. Not a second after I had said those words my phone became full of very loud static. It was so loud I couldn't even hear my friend on the other end. This lasted about 10 seconds and the reception came back to normal. I really didn't think much of it because we get static all the time. But I started thinking that when we do get static, it's very soft and you can still here the person on the other end. Also, my friend said she did not hear the static, she heard no sounds at all. This was weird because whenever we get the soft static the person on the other end can hear it too.

Then, about 2 weeks later, my girlfriend and I were talking in the restroom where we both worked. Somehow, we were talking about my grandpa again. Again, I had said how I wished he would give me a sign to show me he was near me and right after that the lights turned off and on about 3 times. This really freaked me out because her and I were the only ones in the bathroom and neither one of us were even close to the light switch. I thought maybe it was the bulbs burning out but these bulbs were flouresent and when they start to go bad, they get a wavy pattern in them. This was like someone had flipped the switch on and off several times. We had both worked for this company for a long time and had been in that particular bathroom hundreds of times before and we have never had the lights go on and off like that. We've seen them get the wavy pattern when they were going bad but not on and off repeatedly. We started talking to other employees to see if they had ever experienced the lights going on and off and everyone said "no". Also, there were no storms at that time and as far as we know the rest of the company's lights didn't go off and on, at the same time when we were in the bathroom, when it happened to us.

Now I know this could all be a coincindence but a small, hopeful part of me really hopes that was my papa(that was my name for him).

Thank you for taking to the time to read all of this!

I grew up in my house, and always have felt an odd presence. It wasn't till I moved upstairs into the attic that I truly knew I was being watched.

When I was young, around 3 or 4 I use to talk of someone coming in my room. I use to go to bed at around 8 at night . I could never automatically go to sleep at night so I would put the covers over my head and lay awake. Maybe after about a half hour of laying awake I would hear someone come into my room. I would always think it was my mother. But when I asked her about it in the morning she would say it was all a dream, and that she never entered my room. I was young so I just shook it off.

When I was older...about 10, I moved into the attic. At night I could hear someone walking in my room. It's not my size.(I'm 14 now, so I'm not exactly small) It's a much smaller Person. It moves my things. I use to have a Barbie Convertible. I would put it one place at night and it would be in a totally different one when I woke up. I can also hear scratching in the walls. To this day I hate being in my room alone.

Now, in present day 1998 my room is still occupied by something other than myself. Accept it's gotten worse.The door to my room has this sort of latch instead of a handle. When I go to bed at night I can hear something pushing on the door, and in the morning it will be open. And also, as I'm writing now, I have goose bumps. Because I'm the only one in this part of the house,(the house is large) and I'm in the computer room. The hall leading to my room is in the same room as the computer room. The door of the hall was closed securely when I came down. When I was sitting here I could hear something pushing up against the door. I just thought it was the dog and was too lazy to let him out. I am online and I heard a noise come from the door and looked and the door is now open. I can also hear faint blood curdling noises coming from upstairs. Every time I hear something my head whips around towards the door. I know this may sound peculiar but it's happening. All I can say is I am DEFINETLY sleeping in my moms room tonight!

The older I become the more I'm beginning to believe that some spirits have always known each other. It was the summer of 1993 when I met for the first time a young medical secretary named JILLIAN. Our eyes first met in a breathless silence. I know you but we never met before. She felt the same way yet she had just moved to my area from out of state just a few months ago. As time passed we became could friends but JILLIAN had left a lot of personal problems behind in her life. She was a beautiful young woman only half my age and I felt helpless at times trying to give advice to someone that I knew in time passing all things would work out. As beautiful as she was JILLIAN could not keep a boyfriend for long. I could not understand this problem at first until I realized that JILLIAN had a drug problem also.

About six months past that I did not see her when the strange dreams began of JILLIAN asking me to come see her at the place she worked. At first I gave little attention to the dreams until about the third dream experience. This dream was of two large pumpkins in the middle of a corn field. JILLIAN again would ask me to come to the place where she worked. Three more nightly dreams took place before I decided that something was wrong. JILLIAN was in trouble and I had to go see her.

In AUGUST of 1994 I saw JILLIAN at work. She looked beautiful and we spoke for a time.It had lifted my spirit to see her but little did I know it was for the last time. JILLIAN was killed in a car accident three weeks later on SEPTEMBER 14 1994. When I went to her viewing there was two large pumpkins by the steps as you entered. I had told a friend three weeks earlier that the last time I saw JILLIAN she glowed like an angel .

Alright, here are a few stories about my "ghostly experiences". More than likely they won't scare you because the only reason they scared me is because I experienced them first hand. I moved into my last house when I was about 10 years old. I could always feel something wierd about this house but nothing that couldn't be explained happened the first year or two that I was there. Then whenever my best friend and I would be there by ourself things would begin to happen. Faucets would turn on, we would hear footsteps going up and coming down the stairs, you know, the usual "ghost" stuff. However, one day something happened that really freaked me out. My best friend, another friend of mine, and myself all three were in the house. We were bored and decided to go somewhere on our bikes (we were probably 12 at the time) and were getting ready to go. I had to use the bathroom so I used the one by the stairs (that we always hear footsteps on) Whenever I was finished I opened the bathroom door and happened to look through the crack between the hinges and I saw a dark figure walking towards my living room. I didn't think anything of it because I thought it was my friends. Then I yelled out to them and heard someone running through my house saying something that I couldn't understand. So I was like "Ha-ha very funny" and I went out the front door. (About 10 feet away from the bathroom) and both of my friends were standing there asking me why I was yelling so then I told them what happened and we hauled buns out of there.

This is just one of many ghost stories that I have personally experienced and I have quite a few more that my mom has just recently told me after I asked her if she'd ever had any experiences. You can e-mail me if you want and I'd be gland to tell you some of them if I have to time to. Also, I can feel a presence in my new house too. I don't think it's malicious because, as of yet, it hasn't tried to harm me. The only mean thing it's done is chase me through the house once or twice. I'm thinking of using a ouija board to talk to it, since I can't see it I can only feel it, but I've heard you're not supposed to use them alone. Of course, I've also heard that it doesn't matter. If anyone can, please e-mail me with some advice on it.

Thanks,
Josh (Method41@(nospam)aol.com)
