I am a massage therapist and an atheist so not ‘woo’ at all.
I was working on a regular client at her home on Thursday night, there is a long corridor beyond the room that we use, door was open as we were making sure the children were asleep.
I saw the shadow of a man running down her corridor.
So I said ‘oh, do you have a ghost?’ She looked a bit freaked and said ‘why’
I said that I’d just seen a man running down the corridor and she looked even more spooked. Around 5 mins later I saw the same thing but running back down the corridor (just the shadow on the wall) and told her. She said we would ‘talk about it later’ as her husband was away and I said ‘oh don’t worry, it doesn’t seem unpleasant, it could have been a child’ (it clearly wasn’t a child) the cat then appeared at the door shaking its tail and looking out down the corridor.
I went back last night. Her husband had come home and the house was far more full of life than when it was just her and the sleeping girls, she told me she had been in her ensuite (her ensuite is unusual, it is between the corridor and her bedroom so you must walk through it to get to her room) brushing her teeth, about a month previous and had seen a man dressed in a grey tracksuit, jog past her. It was so clear she believed it was her DH and called his name.
She was alone in the house, she then realised her phone had gone dead and upon inspection, the internet was down on her laptop and, the phones were out. Obviously she was incredibly freaked out but got some things working and moved on.
Her husband slept in one of the spare bedrooms a week later and when he woke, every draw and cupboard in the room was open. She is getting more and more senses of this running man and with more people seeing/experiencing it, she believes he is getting stronger.
Obviously this has totally freaked me out. Not least because I managed to identify him a month after first sighting and without her mentioning him to me, because her belief is the more you speak about them, the more they appear.
