i am a person that very much believes in ghost. i have had experience with ghosts since i was a child. but i am going to tell you about a ghost i met as an adult. this ghost i never met or saw.

a friend of mine asked me if i could come stay the night with her because she had not been feeling right about her house here lately. i myself just said sure i would do it. but i was not expecting anything to happen because my friend had an eccentric personality. and i personally felt she made a good bit of stuff up.

well upon arrival at her house she told me she was not sure why because she had lived in the house for three years and never had a problem before. so i stayed. it got late it was a few days before christmas so her tree was up i was sitting in her living room looking at the tree.

well it was about four in the morning and i start to hear this real soft whistling sound. so i get up to investigate thinking that it was my friend messing with me trying to make me believe there was something there well i walked around the house and went into her bedroom her daughter and her were sleeping in the same bed because they were both really freaked out about it i guess .but they were both a sleep very soundly.

so i put the whistling off as my imagination and went back to the living room .her house was very small and the kitchen and backdoor and bathroom were all off of each other. so as i was sitting there i heard the backdoor open. and then the bathroom door open and shut. well i was a little freaked out and refused to investigate because i knew it was not my friend she would have had to go past me.

i should also mention at this point that she had a puppy no more than 9 weeks old and the reason i mention him because looking back i remember him hiding under the chair.

well at anyrate i heard her coffee cups start to rattle the backdoor open and shut again so i decide to investigate this time. as i walked in the kitchen there was a puddle of urine in front of the bathroom door i know was not the puppy because this was a large puddle. i went to er coffee cups and there was one sitting there by the coffee pot with two teaspoons of sugar in it.

so i reported this to her the next day i told her that i felt that this was a ghost of a man that was getting ready for work. at any rate this is what i felt. well after we reasoned this out. she realized it started after her husband had left her. so we deduced that this ghost was probably used to getting ready with her husband and since he was no longer there she was not putting coffee on anymore.

well after that she started getting up and putting coffee on in the mornings and since then there has been no occurence since.

why this worked. i am not sure. but all i know is she gets up every morning and there is a cup of coffee missing from the pot and a rinsed coffee cup in the drainer. i dont question it. i know it works. what had her freaked out i am not sure. could have just been the fact her doors would open and close other own. i dont know. but i think it would have been cool to have gotten to see him but i guess he will aways be the ghost i never met.
