As I mentioned above, the Biltmore Estate in Asheville is supposedly hunted. Here is video clip of someone that visited the hotel a while back and filmed his experience.
At my mum’s the doors get slammed too but it never happens at regular rhythm to video record it but unexpectedly the door gets shut.

I've no idea Sassy - it was in reaponse to a post about how the mind can play tricks etc.
When you say shoes move - do you mean they fly across the floor or they're just in a different place to where they were left the previous day or something?
Old floorboards and stairs crack and bang with changes in temp / humidity all the time.

Just read through the thread.. never experienced anything.. never believed but also never discount anything is possible ..
My wife believes she was visited by her mom who died when she was very young. A lot of her family are apparently in tune for lack of a better word. Half of them are nutters too so who knows.
reading some for the stories freaks me out can’t imagine putting up with anything for real more than once. How your mom and brother could do it for so long says a lot about their resolve. Me.. I would have packed my bags long ago.
I don’t know how I would feel selling it without saying why.. but what you going to do? Just vacate and lose the house to ruin? Maybe try rent it out and see how that goes .. if after a year there are no incidences reported can sell with a clear conscience

May be your mate here Legend...Another example of a place having a 'history' is a place that a fair few in here should know:
For those that don't know, this terrifying, Victorian, Hammer Horror-esque looking building is the old Seaman's Orphanage in Newsham Park (I live not far from here)
It's a formidable looking place (Especially when they get the occasional few bats flying around the tower at night) even more so when you know its history.
As I said above, I'm not sure on the existence of ghosts or spirits, but if they do exist, they are definitely in this place. Nothing good has ever happened here.
It was built in the late 1860's by a group of philanthropists to house the orphans of Britain's maritime sailors (Merchant and Royal Navy sailors who had been lost at sea)
It was used as an orphanage until the 1940's when the kids were all evacuated to the countryside to escape the blitz during WWII.
During the war, it was used as a sort of convalescent hospital for seriously injured servicemen/sailors. Those who had lost several limbs or were not expected to live much longer.
It closed soon after the war as the foundation that supported it no longer had the funds to keep it open and the kids were moved to other orphanages across the country.
It was then taken over in the 50's and became Park View Asylum (Later Park View Hospital) for the mentally ill, which remained open until around the early 90's I believe.
It's been empty ever since.
An orphanage, convalescent ward for dying/seriously ill soldiers and a mental asylum... talk about bad juju!
Of course there's loads of stories about the place being haunted. It's a regular spot for ghost hunters and the like.
People hear laughing or crying children, tales of one of the ex asylum female residents stalking the halls etc.
A guy I work with used to work night security there and swears blind the place is haunted. Chains rattling, things rushing past you, cold spots etc.
He is, however, a very devoutly religious and superstitious guy from Morocco. "There are many devils in there, my brother! Praise to God, I will not be going near that place again"
On the flip side, an old school friend of mine does a lot of urban photography, drone video's of the city (A lot of his stuff gets used by various Liverpool tourism agencies) and he's been through the Seamans Orphanage a fair few times (both legally and not so legally) to photograph the inside.
His view was that, although it's certainly spooky place, you have to bear in mind that it's a massive old building that has stood empty for a few decades on the edge of a Victorian park. The whole place he says is crawling with various critters like rats, mice, squirrels, pigeons, cats, possibly hedgehogs and foxes (And the bats!). You only have to stroll through loudly at night to hear the whole building come alive with scurrying and scratching, not to mention the creaks and groans of the old building itself. If you go in there expecting a paranormal experience, your mind might just give you one.
Or maybe it's a little of both columns... who knows? ?
Is this really all that relevant to the thread? I dunno, but I'm really fascinated by the place, it has such an interesting history. ?
TL;DR - I ramble on about my favorite spooky old building for several paragraphs.
If he’s on the 28 days later urban explorers site. I find the reading hard on the eyes but plenty of pictures.

I have no idea either @dublinbluenose When it was just the sounds and the smell we didn’t make much of it but once this energy became more pronounced we began questioning everything we know about the afterlife.
At night the shoes move from one place to another. My mom always goes to bed and leaves them by her side and when she wakes up they are at another location in the room and sometimes stacked up oddly.
That video is bizarrely edited. The first part shows clips of the Biltmore Estate (in NC) but then the guy says he's at the Providence Biltmore Hotel (in Rhode Island) at 0:30. I do like the door-slamming bit though, that's a lot of fun.

Wow you are good. I’m naive enough to believe this video was real and that @Spadge Vernacular is really getting frightened in CA.
Well my mum’s house story is not edited but it is bizarre and it really sucks that it has a damn ghost. Do you and your family want to come over a weekend while my ma is in Europe and stay there? You had mentioned you wanted to visit Asheville this summer lol
Not him, but really interesting none the less!
The way this one ends is quite funny...

The accent makes it even more entertaining. I watch the clip laughed and I think to myself what am I scared of there is really nothing at my mama’s house but then I think again sbs I still don’t want to go alone there.
I love the whole concept behind it but unfortunately I have never experienced anything. Would love to do like a tour of a haunted place or something similar one day.

Oh my how different some of us feel about this experience. The thought of me being bothered by the ghost the next few weeks in unnerving but you wouldn’t mind going for a haunted tour? Wanna be my chaperone for the next month lol
Yeah it’s a strange one. As I have never experienced any kind of supernatural activity I guess it’s more about the curiosity of wanting to know whether ghosts exist. I love watching supernatural films and documentaries but there has always been doubt in my mind that it’s all a hoax. I would love it to be true in a weird way. In terms of being afraid of possibly encountering a supernatural being I believe that I have learnt to control my fears quite well and it wouldn’t bother me as long as I don’t have to live with it lol
