 Real ghost hunting
October 15, 2006 - 11:27am — Mathias Baden
Yesterday, I met with a ghost hunter who lives in Jordan. It was a three-hour interview. I can't wait to do the story. She has proof of her finds. Her sound recordings and photographs are pretty convincing. The next Southwest Saturday will have one of the stories in it. More later. But in the meantime, tell your true ghost stories by joining the group Ghost Story Central. Please be courteous of other storytellers who want someone to believe them. |

Your comment about being made fun of, was sort of off putting, but here goes.
Me, I have not seen a ghost, but I know I have felt a ghost. Out at the old stone building in the state park. The place is completely filled with an energy. I have taken other people out there and they have aso felt it, a very strong and welcoming energy that just wants to reach out and tell you about itself. I will be interested if your ghost whisperer has been there.

Back to page topI don’t know if it was a ghost, but it sort of falls into the same category as Tilly’s.
When I was a kid in elementary school, I had a friend who lived in one of the oldest homes in town. She claimed that strange things were always happening in her house – footsteps in an empty hallway, lights going on and off, voices when there was no one else home, etc. Well, I’d visited her house a couple of times, but I only went upstairs once and I felt the same sort of energy it seems Tilly felt, only to me it felt a lot less friendly.
I guess that’s about as close as I’ve ever gotten to a ghost, but I’m not even sure if I believe it was a ghost.

Back to page topHi
I'm new to this site and currently reside in Shakopee, we have had some paranormal acivities happen at our household which is behind St.Francis Hospital, we moved into our home in Feb of 06. My girlfriend has seen 2 ghosts next to her bed and black shadows flying around the room and crawling up the walls at night. The lights would turn off by them self, no the light was not burnt out cause the following day it would work just fine, the most recent was last night 10/15/06 we were doing some remodling in our home and decided to take pics of what we have done for a scrap book, so my girlfriend took a pic of me and there was an orb of light over part of my face. We decided to take more pics of the couch, kitchen ect... and they showed up in over ½ the pictures. I'm looking for the lady of Jordan who knows about paranormal activity and might be able to help us determine what is in our home and how to get rid of it.
Thanks
Spooked
My story about the ghost...
Back to page topMy story about the ghost hunter, including contact information, will be in Southwest Saturday this week. The Jordan Independent will follow up with another story next week, after I've gone on a ghost hunt with the paranormal investigator.
Those two stories should help you get what you need. Give her a call or send her an e-mail.
Thanks for sharing what happened at your house. I'm sure that this ghost hunter will be interested to talk to you.
