As far as hauntings and u.f.o."s I beleive in both. At one time I was of the mind set until I saw one or you could prove to me that they do exsist for sure, I will give you the benifit of the doubt. Till one summer, here in central wis. we had a lunar eclipse, I and some friends were out with our children watching the eclipse, when all of a sudden this red dot started to follow the "X" of the railroad crossing sign next to my home. Well needless to say we searched all over for someone to be playing a joke on us, or the possible cause of it. went so far as to take a small flash light and try to do the same thing ,but discovered we would have to be right on top of the sign to make it do the same pattern, therefore that wasn't explanation. So whether it was a u.f.o. or what, who knows. As far as ghost I definately beleive in them. First my sister had lost a baby during childbirth and she swears that everytime someone in the family is going to die the child appears to her, as if to prepare her for the event and someone does die, and this usually happens at same time I dream of death and that always happens just about the time someone in the family does die and usually the only time I dream at all. then I use to work cleaning in an local 3 story office building, here in my hometown of Merrill, and when I started to work there they told me of the resident ghost, and I am thinking, "yeah right you are just trying to scare me," See they said that the ghost was mostly on the second floor and one back stairway, and the ghost would pull out drawers of the workers desks and do all sorts of teasing things. Well that became my area to clean. One night I thought I saw someone ducking around the file rows there, like they were playing hide and seek, and thought it was one of the other workers trying to scare the sh** out of me, so laughing I went looking for them and no one was there, then the "shadow like" figure did this nightly to me, so I called him shadow, I say him because as time went on he let me see him, in a shadow type form and he was from the time of abe lincoln, top hat and coat just like abe's, then he would make the plants move like a wind had gone thru them and the curtains move, and yes I even seen him pulling out desks drawers, then a couple of times it was like he talked to me and I got the impression that he was caught in a fire in a motel that must have sat on the land, in the building of the city of merrill way back when. So that experience alone has pretty much convinced me, yes if you are open minded enough and not afraid when they do approach you they do show themselves to you. By the way another place, historic landmark in the city of merrill also has a rumor of being haunted, but then when I did some research on it, for a writing course I was taking, I decided it wasn't really haunted as much as it was cursed, am going to look and see if there is a web link for it, but perhaps you might want to try it would poss. be under, Scott Mansion, in Merrill Wi. and see for yourself. Thanks for letting me share. and enjoy the message boards, I am learning so much here.
