Things that make you think you have a ghost.. |

Weird Smells.. Common smells associated with ghosts are cigarette/ cigar smoke, perfume/men's cologne, food smells and flowers.
Before you freak out check for a real source of the smell. Does anyone smoke in the house? Anyone wearing strong perfume? Have you been cooking? Are there any candles or incense burning , or do you have windows open where a smell could come in from outside? Most smells can be accounted for so check carefully.
Cold Spots.. First thing to check is your doors and windows. Windows can let alot of air through and in the winter you may notice it more. If you have a fan or the air conditioning running you may notice a draft at times. Warm air rises so if you stick your hand up it may feel warmer up higher. Doors opening and closing can cause drafts.
Doors that open and shut by themselves.. This one is from experience. Check the latches. Even if you think they are shut tightly they an still come open. Triple check them, give them a good yank and make sure they are shut. As far as closing , open the door and let go of it. If it moves, it could be on a slant or sagging. Have someone check you doors and the latches.
Lights go on and off ...Although it doesn't happen often, you could have faulty wiring. Have it check by an electrician for your own safety. If that's not the problem, check the fixtures and bulbs. Bulbs can work loose and the insides of lamps can too. I have one that does it often.
Also, bulbs can go bad before blowing out totally.
Electrical appliances.. Same thing here. Check the wiring firat of all, then the outlets they're in. For TV /VCR/ Stereo's, same deal. If you have remotes for them check the batteries. If they are unplugged , then you may very well have something to think about!
Objects moved.. Ask family and friends. If they didn't do it..
Voices/ Music... Obviously make sure no one is talking or playing music. Check outside for a source of the noise. Rule everything out you can .
Pets and Kids... Pets and children can sense and see thing adults can't for some reason. Watch them. If your dog barks at nothing and your cat stares at the corner, there may be something there. If your kids say they see someone or talk to imaginary friends, it may not be their imagination. Before you say anything to them, just watch and listen.
There are alot of things that have a reasonable explanation, you just have to do a little research. |
