I moved into my house 1 yr ago and when i first moved in some strange things happened. We heard laughter and someone repeated what i had said, both me and DH heard it. One night, i came home and went up to the bedroom. We have 2 built in wardropes, two freestanding and one chest of drawers. There are also various drawers on the wardropes. Anyway they had all been opened. My first instinct was that we had been robbed but nothing was taken. I did speak to someone who has lived in the road all her life and she said the only person who had died in the house was an old man. The house was built near an old mental hospital that was later used to house TB sufferers until their death and my sister and friend live in the area and they had some strange things happen aswell. Anyway it became a bit of a running joke and nothing much has happened since we first moved in apart from things like toys going off on their own and spoons falling in the kitchen without any explanation of where they came from. Then the other morning my DD(22m) came downstairs and was adamant that grandad(she calls any old man grandad, even max on the tweenies) was in our out-house that is attached to the kitchen. she never goes out there so i presumed that she had dreamt it and carried on getting ready for work. However, she became very distressed screaming and pulling at the handle. I asked her what she wanted and she started pointing out the window in mid air saying "grandad".She seemed very upset that i couldn't see anything. I decided to let her out there and carry on and as i listened she was playing and laughing. When it was time to go i went out there and she looked at me then pointed to mid air again and said grandad. I told her it was time to go and pulled her through to the kitchen. With that she turned round and said come on to mid air and then as if told they couldn't come she said ok bye bye and quite happily followed me through. She hasn't mentioned it since and i have kind of brushed it of but the other part of me is wondering if there is more to the old man story!!!!
