To think there’s a ghost or an axe murderer in the house!

[Ginormoustrawberry]

Currently stopping in a holiday home. It’s as creepy AF with noises galore.

Just heard a very distinctive ‘it really happened’ noise. DH went to investigate and found nothing.

DC’s are all ok but images of ‘Jason’ and Poltergeist are keeping me awake

[Basilneedswaterandsun]

What sort of noise was it?

[Basilneedswaterandsun]

(....love a woo thread)

[Ginormoustrawberry]

Like something had fallen off something.

It’s a converted chapel too which isn’t helping my imagination!

[MarthasGinYard]

"They're heeeuuurrrrrrrrr"

[Basilneedswaterandsun]

Like a book falling off a table?
Can see why you’d be scared but there’ll be an innocent explanation I’m sure

[Ginormoustrawberry]

Not as heavy as a book. Maybe keys or a phone, something lighter.

It’s quite small and open plan and there is nothing obviously out of place.

We are both now wide awake though

[notsodimwit]

Oh no😱👻! I hate scary places

[notsodimwit]

It's mice or bat's in the attic🦇🐀

[Basilneedswaterandsun]

Safety in numbers OP!

[Ginormoustrawberry]

@notsodimwit no attic 😳

[notsodimwit]

Oh no😯 then the bats/mice could be in the room with you

[Ginormoustrawberry]

😱😱

[Lifeover]

Doesn’t sound like there’s a place for an axe murderer to hide. So probably a ghost. Could even be a ghost of mice and bats

[LittleElle]

I live in a converted chapel. Can confirm they are haunted

[quaterafter1]

Glad you made it to the morning op 😱

[PeonyTruffle]

3am is the witching hour OP, just saying......

🤤

[wertuio]

Did you watch ‘Ghosts’ on BBC last night?

That might explain it.

[Ginormoustrawberry]

Made it to morning (late I might add due to being up two hours in the night) and didn’t watch ‘ghosts’

Hopefully the rest of our stay won’t require an update!

[PhilomenaButterfly]

Do you have the number of the local exorcist? 👻

[Bluntness100]

It's just the house settling.

When houses cool down or warm up, the structures shrink or expand and it makes noises that's all. Also the same for plumbing. It's really nothing sinister at all.

I lived in a converted chapel and it was seriously spooky. Lots of weird things happened there and I was glad to move. The resident ghost took a dislike to the carpet fitter and he fled, ended up in a and e as he thought he was having a heart attack due to the shock 👻👻👻👻

[BlueCornishPixie]

I once stayed in converted chapel that I felt was haunted! It was small and open plan!

I wonder if it's the same place..

I never saw any ghosts or anything but I always felt creeped out and I thought my things moved over night

[dontfluffthefluffer]

When I moved into my house I was up half the night one night hearing people thumping about and trying to break in/into my garage.

Turns out I had put the dishwasher on overnight and the water pipes bang and bash like there's a war going on downstairs.

Possibly heating/water pipes just having a clang at some point?

[Historydweeb]

You should be ok, church grounds are consecrated. So if you believe in woo, you can also believe that the consecration acts as a physical barrier to any spectral gatecrashers

[drudgewithagrudge]

Is the chapel in Hampshire ?
