Scary Ghost Stories

Grandparents House

I wanted to tell you about my grandparent's house. Me and a couple of my cousins spent alot of time there when we were young. My grandparents used to watch us while our parents were at work. There are 4 of us close to my age and we could really mix it up when we were young. There was 3 of us girls and 1 boy. I am an only child, the other 2 girls are twins 6 months older than me, and the boy is 3 months younger than me.

My grandparent's house is pretty big. They have never used the upstairs for anything but storage space. This made a great place for us to kill time when we were kids. One day when we were around 8 years old we were upstairs playing some kind of board game when we all noticed this big dark shadowy figure standing in the doorway. My back was to the door when i noticed everybody staring at it. At first glance i thought it was gramps, but when i got my head fully turned i noticed it was transparent. By the time we all freaked and screamed it was gone.

Needless to say it was a while before we went back up there. It was about 2 months later when we decided to play upstairs again. We were all in one room doing something when in the next room we heard some awful moaning. When we would step out into the hall it would quit. One time we got brave and looked in the room, but it was empty.

There is more things that happened in the house. My cousins and me spent most of our time there until we were around 16. Even today we sometimes see strange things upstairs. We found out from the twins' dad when we were older that there had been 2 people murdered in the house long ago. Also, the house was used in the Civil War as part of the underground railroad and they were told that 5 slaves got caught there and were imediately killed, but they don't know what part of the house this happened in.

It's weird how dispite seeing ghosts in this house for almost 20 years and it's sad history we have had nothing but good times there. Let me know if you want to hear more about the house. I have 25 years of stories i can tell.
