For the past 2 weeks, Ashlynn (my 2 year old baby girl) will be doing something - anything... just playing and all of a sudden she will freak out, start crying and run to me. She will keep telling me about the "people" that are scaring her. This has happened on multiple occasions and she has even told my husband and I exactly where they are and we had to tell them to go home and stop scaring Ashlynn. Sometimes I will see her with her hands over her face and she will be saying "go away people, go home, don't scare Ashlynn, don't scare mommy and daddy... and babies, too". Another incedent - a couple of weeks ago, Ashlynn was with my mom and my twin baby girls (Jaedynn & Tarynn - 1 year old) were playing in Ashlynn's room. I was listening to them laughing and playing while I was doing dishes, in the kithchen. All of a sudden - they both started screaming bloody murder. I ran to the hallway and they were both barreling out of her room, stumbling over one another and they couldn't get to me fast enough! They were both terrified by something and it took me a while to settle them back down. I also had a music box (well - a water globe thingee) of mine start playing music all by itself the other day. I was sitting only a few feet from it and I was the only one in the room. I know I might sound crazy, but something very strange is going on. Anyway, whatever it is... I can't explain it. All I know is that it is driving me nuts, because something is scaring my girls and I can't make it ok if I can't even see what they are afraid of. I can't make them understand that I won't let anything happen to them. I hate it when my kids are scared. Anyone have any insight??

She describes him and I can see her looking right at him. I don't let her watch scary or violent television, so I'm sure she's not making it up. She says he has a bloody knife. She says he is all black and she often sees him sitting on mommy's bed! I thought she might be developing some sort of mental disorder, but I'm glad to hear other mothers have had similar experiances.
New User wrote:Hi, I have never seen a ghost and have hardly even thought about them until recently. My 27 month old son has been puzzling me. After putting him to bed and leaving the landing light on, i pay a little visit to him while he is still awake and he gets all excited when i appear at the door. I crouch down to talk to him over his cot and he points past the left of my face towards the top of the landing and he does this several times and babbles happilly as though he is pointing something out to me. He will look at me and babble, pointing enthusiastically. This has made my hair on my arms stand up! There's nothing there. The wash bin is on the landing and one afternoon it creeked three or four times. I heard it creeking as i checked my son who was fast asleep. I sat there looking at it as it creeked a few more times. It had washing in it but neither my husband or i had touched it for at least a day. I dont' know what to think.
Today which is new years eve, new years day now (been typing so long) i went to a little church in Woburn Sands with my son and husband and this is for his family tree research (his father came over for Xmas day and gave some info to my partner about his old relatives, 2 being buried in the church in 1940 and 49). So in the afternoon my partner,son and i went up there. Now, our son loves to walk and run on his reins and we got him strapped up and he trotted up the path. He had a mild stumble as usual and regained his step and carried on walking. We walked up the side of the church and towards the back where the grave stones are and suddenly he looked and immediately put his hand over his face and went towards his dad to be picked up. I took a couple of photos of the grave of what would be my husband's great nan and grandad and all the time my son's hand stayed over his eyes and face. His legs were together and not once did he look. I was puzzled and we then walked around the other side of the church and back to the car, my husband was still carrying him. Now i am baffled as we both know that when we take him out either on foot or in his pushchair, if anyone comes up to him and does the usual ' hello what's your name' etc, he puts his hand over his face and it usually stays there until the person has gone and occasionally he has removed his hand and dared to look and smile. This is the only reason he puts his hand over his eyes. My son has never been to a church or a graveyard and never been to this church which is a little church with a small cemetery with quite old stones but it all looks lovely and free from noise, not even a barking dog. There are no bright graish colours and it is very subtle visually. We are wondering 'did he see something we didn't? did someone come up to him that we couldn't see?
I go in a lot of charity shops in my town and i many people come up to my son, mostly friendly 'grannies' and they always greet my son but we always say 'he's shy' because his hand goes straight up over his eyes.
I buy and sell retro items, clothing and furniture items also many older items and often i have to store the objects in my two bedrooms. On a few occassions i have felt i am not alone, a russling carrier bag while i'm in bed and something blowing past my ear then two seconds later a creek of my window frame. I have smelt smoke/tobacco and perfume which have disappeared within seconds. I have often smelt tobacco waft over me while i am wake in bed yet my partner and i don't smoke. My house contains a lot of second hand objects especially furniture and don't want to concern myself of having a pile of spirits in my house now. As my collecting is my income and a hobby i would not want to stop it all. Has anyone heard of having odd experiences connected to a second object brought into their home? There could be a perfectly normal explanation for it all. I've got to go to bed now at 1.30 am and hope i sleep ok.

Sorry -- new to this site and unsure how to post (previous entry).
We also collect antiques and second-hand items, mainly as a hobby. When we get tired of something, we sell it on eBay or to others who also collect. There are many people we've dealt with over the years who've had too many strange experiences with old items -- furniture and dolls in particular -- to dismiss them all as superstitious.
If an item meant something to someone who has died, there is often a psychic connection. Whether that connection is a residual psychic echo or an intelligent, interactive entity is hard to determine; however, most stories I've heard first-hand lead me to believe it's the latter. In the same way a house or physical dwelling/location can be "haunted," so can an object. If it exhibits malevolent behavior, the best thing to do is get rid of it. If it does not seem unfriendly, the spirit may be enjoying its new surroundings.
If you can co-exist with the spirit, it could be good for both of you. I once read about a caretaker in California who actually talks to the spirits who inhabit the old property in which he works. He says it comforts him and vice-versa.
As for your child, he is likely seeing spirits of those who are sent to look after him -- usually relatives who have passed. From your description, they don't appear to want to do him harm, so I wouldn't worry too much. In most cases, a young child's ability to see spirits seems to wear off as he or she grows older and are taught that such things are not possible (wink-wink). When he does grow older, it would be interesting to broach the subject and see if he recalls seeing things as a boy. Ashby, my significant other, used to play with a host of children who lived in the woods as a child near the family's 1600s-era home near the Chesapeake Bay in Virginia. Ashby is convinced today that they were not real children at all, but spirits of young ones who had passed on all too early in life.
Anyway, thanks for sharing. Good luck with your son and happy antiquing!
