I think my apartment is haunted

[dalejrfan71]

My wife and I have been living in this peticular for almost 5 years now. In the past 4.5 years of living here I have seen things out of the corner of my eye. I have been sitting at the computer surfing the net and I have either been tapped on my head or on my back. When this happens I turn around to see what did this and there's nothing behind me.

I have heard footsteps coming down the hall. One morning about 3 years ago My wife woke up and thought she saw me walking down the hall and go into the bathroom. She called out to me asking when I was going to be finished in the bathroom. I told her that I was in the kitchen making us breakfast when she saw "me" walking down the hall.

Another time I was making my wife breakfast before she had to go to work. While I was making her breakfast I saw an orange tabby cat run by the kitchen which is interesting because we have a gray tabby cat. I've watched my cat follow something around with her eyes.

One night I was walking out of the bathroom and saw a shadow person in the corner. My cat saw it as well and she hissed at it. The apartment building my wife and I live in is approximately 35 to 40 yrs old. Plus there is a creek that runs under the building.

I live in Grimsby, Ontario Canada, which is the Niagara region of Ontario. Part of the war of 1812 was fought in this region. Not to mention how many people have died in this building over the past 40 yrs. Is my apartment haunted or is this my imagination?

What do you think?

This has been going on for almost five years? And you ask if your apartment is haunted. Hard to say from far away, but have you ever asked, are you or your wife haunted? Maybe one or both of you are attractive to spirits, and that helps the situation you find yourself in. Has anyone else in the building reported any strange activity, or is it just the two of you who experience it? It may or may not be the area you're in, and the history of the surrounding area, but it could also be that spirits like you, or your wife, and have followed you home from other locations. Have you ever thought of running an investigation on your home? It might help to determine what's going on in your apartment, or it may bring up more questions. But it may help you to at least decide which came first, the haunting or the ghost magnet! Good luck and keep us posted, hon!

I know that the building is 40 years old and I can imagine the amount of people that have died in the building over the years. In the other apartment my wife lived in before she moved to the apartment we live in now someone died in it before she moved in it. I called in to the show Spooky Southcoast and talked to Tim and Matt Moniz about what's been going on here. When I told them that there is a creek that runs under the building, Matt told me that water is a good conductor of paranormal activity.

Oh definitely, water has been theorized the help increase paranormal activity. It just sounded to me like this has been an ongoing problem for you. I remember when you called in and spoke about your home. If you haven't dragged ghosts in from somewhere else, and there is some history to the area, it's not always necessarily the building you live in but could be the ground it's sitting on. The house is 40 years old, but how old is the land? How much history happened before the house was built? But like it say, it does sound like you've had an ongoing bit of activity around you, so it makes me wonder if one or both of you might be attracting some company, too!
