No scary stuff, no spooky stuff, just a nice old house. The second night, my husband and I were alone in the house with the owner - and that's when we heard the footsteps down the back stairs.

I refused to sleep there. Now Jim and Linda are renouned for their summer backyard grilling out and going fishing on the river kinda' all weekend parties. I slept in my old VW camper (transporter) every time I stayed there. I told him his house was haunted, not in a bad way, not in a an Amityville, NY kinda' way, just that it had someone there and I would not sleep inside. About a year after moving in my bud Jim couldn't sleep one night and swore he heard someone working in the basement. He went downstairs and he swears he saw an old man working in his (Jims) machine shop. He claims the old man smiled and waved at him. Ever since then I have had no problem or any wierd feelings in Jims house and I have since then slept in the basement. No problem, no wierd feelings! I bought the house I live in last November and was a bit worried that I might expierence something like I did at Jims house. From the first time I walked in here it has felt like home....all comfy and homey-like. I have since found out that the original owners were really nice folks and he worked on old Triumph motorbikes and was a rifle shooter and hunter. Damn am I him reincarnated? :) My best friend in the whole world, a kid I grew up with, bought a house and from day one I did not feel comfortable in their new house. I refused to sleep there.

Then I spent my fifth anniversary at the Lizzie Borden B&B, and you're darn right they exist. http://kate2kids.blogspot.com/2005/10/weekend-at-lizzies-part-ii.html It's pretty cool, once you've lived through it and are pretty sure you'll still be sane afterward...
