Lake Stories
Sent in by Tim
I live with my grandparents about thirty minutes away from my parents' house. I usually dont get along with my 'rents but I decided that this week I would come on up to the camp that they live in. For those of you interested or familiar with southern Maine it is on the first lake of Little Sebago. Well, any way.. I had come up for the weekend( just a few days ago now,) and my first night here I was on the computer as usual until almost four in the morning. around two-ish I started to hear talking and splash in front of my house and right below the window I was siting beside. So being the curious type I looked out and tried to see where I was hearing this from but I saw nothing. So I figured no big deal, I am on a secluded stretch of lake probably just some kids my age or a little older out skinny dipping or something. And for awhile I let it go as just that. Then suddenly my dogs( I have two mixed breed dogs, they are Black lab/blue tick hounds and the bark furociously at strangers or even me if I am arguing or fighting with my parents or siblings). So again I looked out and this time I saw a "shadow-person" standing near a large swing in my side lawn. as soon as I began to get a good look at it it turned and ran around the side of my nieghbors house. Well this bugged me but I decided maybe that it was a person not a ghost and that it was just that they were standing in a shadow that confused their looks. So no big deal I just ignored it and continued what I was doing.
About a half hour later I heard the talking and the splashing and noises near the window and on the lake again. So I got mad because ghosts or not they were making my dogs go nuts and they were going to wake my entire family, including my little brother and pregnant mother, up. So I opened the window beside me stuck my head out and in a VERY UNUSUAL moment of maybe stupid but pure bravery yelled " I dont care what you are shut up or I will tear you all a new a**hole!!!" As suddenly a! ! s t had started over an hour ago it just stopped and I have not heard that talking or splashing since.
In a related story... also that night my dogs stood at the bottom of the stairs to my bedroom and bared their teeth and growled for a good 10 minutes. And I have always had a bad feeling about the two rooms upstairs at night or in the very early morning. And then yesterday, Wednesday, June 3rd. 1998, I was taking a shower. And to better explain let me tell you about how you have to shower at my camp. We have a ten gallon water heater here and it holds enough for maybe two minutes of continuious use. So the way you have to shower is this, you get in turn on the water, get wet, turn it off, soap up, turn it on, rinse, turn it off, shampoo, turn on the water and rinse, turn it off, and put the conditioner on, turn the water on and rinse, and make sure you get all the soap etc off. So with that explained I was in the shower following this procedure and after the first step the light in the bathroom starts to turn on and off over and over and I assume my little bro just got back with my mom so I look out, I had left the door open so if the phone rang I could grab my towel and answer it, and noone was there but I figured he was hiding so I yelled " Yo Ric! Knock it off you little goof!" and it stopped. Then after I soapped up and rinsed off I heard my computer turn off then back on and off and back on.
I figured that my mom or dad must have done it and I ignored it and shampooed. After that I heard the answering machine play and delete all the messages and turn off. I had just finishedso I took my towel and dried off and just as I got my pants on I heard my back door swing open and slam shut so I ran out to give my mom or dad a message that had been left for them and there was no one in the house, no car, no tracks in the dirt no nothing!!
So I began to panic!! I Went to grab for the portible phone on the charger where I left it but it was not there so I ran to the kitchen grabbed a knife( which by the way I have become VERY good at using,) and did a cur! ! sory check of my house. Then I looked in the kitchen closet last because it is a walk in and I didnt want to have someone slam it shut behind me and there on the shelf was my phone. I grabbed the phone and called my best friend Samantha and relayed the story. I remarked this to my father and asked where he had been to make sure that he had not been the one fooling around here. And he simply said, "Well Tim, must have been your grandmother trying to let you know she is still watching over you."
In closing I just want to say that I believe that the last event may have been my grandmother because after she died she had saved me when I got hit by a car.

This occurrence happened to me tonight, January 2,1999, approximately around 10:00p.m.
I am not a UFO buff and dismiss all moving lights in the night sky as manmade aircraft for the reason that I have never witnessed anything more dramatic than a blinking light. However, I do not discount the possibility of supernatural or extraterristrial manifestations and I perhaps had that opportunity tonight, for my first experience.
Every night I make my trek across the road to help my elderly mother-in-law get ready for bed. Tonight, it is pouring rain and as I trudge down our gravel drive and look to my right to check for oncoming cars, I notice a brilliant light positioned over our neighbor's house, about 500'away. I stopped and gazed at it.
We live in a rural area and anything out of the ordinary is certainly noticed. This light appeared out of the ordinary and my first thought when I saw it was that it was a National Guard plane coming through at a rather low altitude and probably still a good distance away. Their headlights appear large and "hovering" as they approach--only this light did not approach. Instead it seemed to turn slightly and directly toward me. Even then, I was certain this was a transport plane and it might crash in our field! Suddenly, it flared up.
Our neighbor's Shepherd began barking and they turned on an outside light. I stood gazing at this expanded light for a few more seconds and an was astounded when it suddenly turned green. For a split second, there appeared to be a green glow or brief, short shaft of green light enaminating along one side.
I quickly decided this was not an airplane and ran back to my house to get my husband and grab a pair of binoculars. I was only in the house less than ten seconds. When I went back out on the porch, the light was gone.
I have no idea what I've seen. I'm afraid to call my neighbor, because, unless they they were in a position to see this, they might think I'm a kook. Besides, what if there was some other plausable explanation? I can't imagine what.

Those are some really neat stories, I'll see if I can get some of my own...Oh wait I remember one... (My own expierence..)
Ok so I was like 8 years old I think and my bed was in the middle of my room. I woke up in the middle of the night and looked around the room but I saw a little girl, white gown type thing (She looked like the girl from the ring but had shorter hair.) And she was standing by my closet, with her back to me looking around. I of course like any other kid burried my face in the covers, when I looked again she was gone.

running along my little section of road in rosalie are 5 brick houses. across the road is the local school that goes to the eighth grade. a local land owner donated some land to the school to build a football field, playground, and basically anew school. in return for the large portion of land the school board gave the gentleman the"old" gym as payment. my children's grandmother had classes in that gym. yeah it was a gym and the school. mr. womack sectioned the classrooms and gym up and ereted these houses. i live in the 3rd house from either direction. it's the only house that somehow acquired the gym's attic. the ceilings are high and the rooms are large and defintely have a classroom feel. to add a little humor, before i even knew this i acquired two old school desks. one was given to me and one i found on the side of the road. leave it to me to bring the desks back haha. anyway i noticed strange noises and odd thigs from the beginning but i assumed it was backlash from chad's death. i would hear the children playing when they were suppose to be asleep, but when i walked the short distance to their room they were sound asleep. eventually a friend was over here that grew up in this area and his father had attended school in this building also. one night while sitting here watching tv or soemthing he out of the blue said, "ya know one of these houses are suppose to be haunted. i think it's yours" and by the expression on his face i could tell he meant it. after that i felt a little more brave and talked to soem of my other friends about it. most said wondered when you was gonna mention it. you can hear the children playing and i believe i've seen them track up the yard to the next house like goibg down the hall at school. i got up the nerve to ask the neighbor. there was one little boy in partiular that i see or feel or whatever more than others. so i began to describe him to them. i would start to speak of one aspect and she would finish the sentence with me. most ppl that come here ask me first if it's haunted and then there are those who don't want to admit it until you sat just the right thing. then their face can't hide it. i would like to learn more about how to communicate with these children, they're like part of the family. i have two boys, and they on their own decided to let the other kids have one of the bedrooms while they shared the other. but the boys said they weren't giving up the big on, because they also had the attic and that wouldn't be fair. i guess live children and spirit children fight over the biggest room too. i just wish jake would quit trying to feed them snack. it makes such a mess

lol, thats a good story..
haha, and yeah kids have a sixth sence like no other..its fascinating..
ya know In my dream this house of the woman in alabama haha had very tall ceilings, in fact I recall feeling the room was oddly empty, but was huge..
perhaps this house is a portal to other realms of energy...consciousness. perhaps it holds so much energy that it has created its own conscous, if that makes sence, I think it is possible that this house is actualy a connection to the psychic/other side..
there is a thread on here somwhere I want you to read..I ll have to fetch it for you, but anyway I think you should communicate with the house, like that book you just bought use that...
and maybe through the house you can communicate with those children...
I liked your story, and I bet your house has vibrant energies in it, of all kinds..
im going to find that thread for you, its interesting..

oh yeah it does and it is also ppretty the refuge in rosalie for alot of ppl. i've had ppl i've never met before just stop by and start talking to me. i sleep with the doors unlocked, windows wide open, and am never worried or scared. but i have to admit i'm beginning to wear down because for the last couple of months it's pretty much been constant guests. and for the last 5 days it has been constant. thanx for the thread i'm fixin' to check it out now. i've spoken with another person in my community that has communicated with spirits in her house before and we're trying to work something out. i really don't know yet. still on the research part. lol

no, not that i know of. to be honest i really have no clue. i've only met her a couple of times, and we talked about it some. she's the only one around here though that i know who's tried to make contact with past energies in a house. thanx again for the thread, i read it mon and it was really cool. i feel very, very connected with this house. i just wish i knew who was here with me. my sister-n-law and i was making strawberry jam yesterday, while we were in the kitchen we heard the door sound like it was barely opened. we looked at each other, and one of us, not for sure now which, ask if someone came in. we listened a second and i said ii didn't think so. then we saw the shadow (a person's) walk by. kim said somebody is here. so i went to look and nope no one was there. i told ah it's just the ghost. he's roaming again. i don't know why i say he, because i really don't know. when i told kim that she said well by the shadow it looked like a he. so while we amd jelly we listened him or her in the bathroom, doing i guess whatever ghosts do in the bathroom. lol

i have a theory on why he, for lack of a better term, may have been extra active these past few days. my friends candy and troy called this past weekend and i didn't answer. it was like the phone had a different ring or maybe i should feel to it when it was them. they kept calling over and over, but the more insistent they became with the calling the less and less and i wanted to answer it. so i didn't. i took a chicken routeand used the excuse, i knew them when i was married to chad i'm moving forward not back. we live in a community so small there isn't even a traffic light or post office, everybody i know i pretty much knew before chad died. well, we all worked at the same hoisery mill in fort payne, that's actually how we met. chad and i left cooper's in 99, candy last year, and her hubby troy will probably be found hundreds of years later as a fossil in the dye house, will always be there. as it happens my nephew wrecked his truck last week and he needed a way to work wed. night @ midnight and needed to be picked up at 6 a.m. so i took him. thurs morning after i picked him up i told him i was going to the part of the plant where i had worked and see who was still working there. it was then that i found out why they had called before even speaking to them. another girl that had worked with us there since 92, had committed suicide fri. i had not been feeling well the first part of the week and had missed some work and didn't really leave the house or turn the tv on so i didn't know until yesterday about it, the day after the funeral. it was wed. as i started typing this thread i remembered something that happened this weekend with our ghosty friend. a friend of mine was staying here that weekend, he was actually the first one to verbalize last year that he thought the house was haunted, and if he hadn't of noticed these things at the same time i did i would have probably dismissed them. my bed kept being moved. i had it caddy-cornored, somehow it would become straight. we'd fix it, it would move back. my boys each ahve a bb gun, only guns in the house and they stay in my room. they kept getting moved around in there little corner, pretty much parrallel to the bed's corner. i thought at first matthew might have done it just messing with them, but at this time he had not even been in there. i also just remebered matthew was getting quite upset because he kept finding bb's in his pocket and he didn't even know where the bb's were kept. he'd take 'em out throw them away and later he would find more. bless his heart he's my ex boyfriends little brother, that i kept as a little brother. he just turned 17, i haven't seen him since he left mon. my friend kim shot herself on the right side of her head. bb's were in right pocket. there may even be more instances i'll have to rethink because i remebered those after starting this. do you think it was possible that "he" ws trying to let me know something or did he just happen for the first time to mess with the only "guns" in the house. the last time anyone felt him and that day there was a shadow was wed. and it was after the funeral and burial. ok i admit i was a little excited about talking with a ghost but now i don't know if he's freaking me out or if i'm using him to freak myself out. i'm a lost ball in high weeds on this one and i'd appreciate any thoughts on what might have happened.
thanks,
jeana

again Im sorry about the news of your friend Jeana...well it is possible that you were being warned ,I don't know, ya know perhaps someone was trying to communicate with you, thats what it sounds like..
interesting, I wouldn't let this freak you out,unless things began to frighten your kids ya know, and if they are, I would try to get rid of the spirit or evergy..
I wonder if it was your friend herself trying to reach you...
just a thought,.

yeah, well thats good I think, I know I have lived in a few houses where I felt a strong force there, and I also felt protected, when I lived up north with my mom, I always felt a presense there..
and I used to hang out in the garage, which had a huge room above it with a balcony, this was my hangout and the house was about10 feet away from it, and their was a light post inbetween them and at night I would feel something there with me, I would sit in front of the fire and play guitar..thats all I did than, and when I would go back to the house that light would come on as soon as I got to the front door of the house, it was strange.
another thing about that house is that I dreamed of it before I had even seen it, I dreamed of the entire place...I described it in detail to my mom before I ever saw it,that was odd, but again I think some houses hold more energy than we can imagine..
also a friend was staying over..and I left him alone in the roon above the garage, I came back and he was scared..he said "don't ever leave me alone again" those were his words, I said why, he said he felt someone watching him, I told him I felt it all the time, but I didn't think it was evil or anything, I felt it was honestly the energy of the house combined with the energy of where we lived, nature, we were surrounded by woods...
