A Christmas Season Ghost?

[stevenstrange]

I just talked to my friend Rob. He called to see what I was doing tomorrow night. He said, "I have a haunted house for us." It being a bit past the Halloween season and our annual trip to at least one haunted attraction I was a little confused. "A real haunted house," he went on

Can't wait to hear the results!! I'm fascinated by ghosts & such. The antique store where my ex works, which is also where his brother lives, is haunted. Oddly enough, they never showed themselves to me much at all. They seem to like Basil, and Brad (his brother) told us many stories. The interesting thing was when a lady came in who had been best friends with a girl who lived there when they were young. Somehow, they got on the topic, and she asked if the man who smoked cigars still haunted the place. It was pretty freaky cause she described very similar experiences to what he'd had. The coolest was when I got to smell the cigar smoke. Basil & Brad had smelled it many times, but I never had. One day, I was in the store, and there was one customer who'd gone upstairs. Suddenly, I smelled this really strong cigar smoke. My first thought was, "what makes that guy [customer] think he can smoke in here???" Then I kinda realized it wasn't him, and looked around for an open window or something, (which there was none) and just as quickly as it came, it vanished. But, it was VERY strong and unmistakable. That was cool. We actually think there are 3 ghosts, but the man is definitely the strongest. There's also a lady and a little girl. They are nice, though, and almost in a protective way. They seem to look out for Basil a bit. They turn the lights on for him sometimes so he doesn't have to walk in the dark! LOL! It's interesting, too, cause the one they usually turn on is the stiffest light switch in the bunch, so it's not like you could flick it partially, and it would turn itself back on or something. He's had so many little occurrences he doesn't even notice it anymore.

That is so cool about the antique store, Lori. Interestingly, the most obvious manifestation from our visit so far has been smell. I'll post more on that after we have finished pouring over our recordings.
