| | Our Family in the Old House
Hi, I found your email address on Indiana Ghost Trackers site. I wasn't sure which email address to use to I just chose the "top dog." My mother recently died. She had pancreatic cancer. She suffered for almost a year. I cannot describe to you how slow, painful and horrible pancreatic cancer is. I'm veering from the subject though. I am a big fan of "Ghost Hunters" and similar programs. I guess it's that part of each of us that hopes there is a way you can stay behind and watch over the ones you love. I truly believe if there is a way for that to be done my mother would have done it. She worried about everyone so much. My sister has two homes. During her illness, my mother lived in one of them. It was convenient for all of us to stay with her there. She died in that house, while I was with her. I can tell you that my daughter and I have taken pictures of orbs as good if not much better than the ones you show on your site. I told my mom if there was a way to come back that I wanted her to try for me. I believe she has done that. I am veering again. The house I grew up in was very haunted. It scared me to death. Not just footsteps and "touching" but lots of things. The last time I spent the night in that house was when I was about 20. That night something squeezed my hand during a conversation with my mother. It was just as if someone was grabbing your hand to shake it only they squeezed. I don't mind ghosts but I DO NOT like physical contact. I never stayed there again. I do know for a fact that there are graves in the yard. The first time my father plowed up the garden they came up. They came up for years. Halves of tombstones. He just threw them over the fence and kept plowing. My brother and sisters have talked of a woman in white that would stand in the window of the house, which was built around 1840. I never saw her. I heard footsteps ALOT and felt a presence but I never saw her. I remember some nights of hearing someone walk up the steps where I just covered my head with covers. Sometimes I knew they had come to my room but I felt safe as long as my head was covered and I couldn't see them. I remember feeling terrified so much in that house. When my mother died in April we had a CD made of everyone's photos combined. My aunt had given me a photo of when we were young when my parents had just bought the house. It was really run down and my father was restoring it. You can see by the photo that he had 2x4s by the corners of it in preparation for painting. When my mother died we had the family photos put on CD. The photos back in the 50's were about 3x3 or so. Nobody had ever seen that photo any larger. All these years I thought what I saw was the reflection of the sun on the window. I am sending you this photo.  When this photo was taken there was nobody else there. My grandfather took the photo. Look at the side lite beside the door on the right. That is behind the door. To be that tall you would have to be about 6'2" or so. This is no fake photo. This is real. Nobody else was there that day. I have called my aunt to confirm that. She is one of the people in the photograph.
I guarantee you that this photograph is completely original and untouched. We would never have seen the figure in the window had it not been for my son asking me what that was in the picture. I told him at first it was a reflection and he said to enlarge it. That's when I saw the person in the window. Let me know what you think. Becky
