Ghost in the Mirror

I don't know how to start this off, so i'll do it like this.

My grandparents house in Fullerton, Orange Co., (Southern) California has a long history, with many deaths, so the house is haunted. When my grandmother's first husband died, my aunts, uncles, and mom tried out a ouiji board. They asked him to show them of a sign of his presence, and the hallway mirror (which was securely tacked into place) fell off the wall in front of the door and landed onto the ouiji board.

Since then, my family has been very strict about ouiji boards.

When I lived with my grandmother for about a year in`92, I went into the house, glance around, and on the first glance, I would always see an old lady (between 50 and 70) standing facing me, she was always wearing a fancy pink dress, and she had white (pure white) hair.

When I spoke to my mother about it, she informed me about the deaths, murders, and suicides that have occured in that house. When my grandmother brought her first born into that house, the baby got very sick and died after a few weeks.

I can never get that image of the old woman standing in my grandmothers room. It's funny, though, how I only saw her when I wasn't paying attention. People say it's just my imagination, and the clothes are just the reflection from my wear, but If I'm wearing black or white, how can you reflect pink?

My grandmother has past on now, and I miss her, but now I know she is at that house with the rest of the spirits.

Maybe the spirits could be there from when California, Arizona, and Nevada were considered the Wild West, and that lady was one of the people who died there before the house was built.

I know when construction workers build, they don't ever check the history too far back on a site, so maybe that's the reason for all of these hauntings and sights.
