My ghost story from today
I'm sure a lot of people will think I'm crazy or just lying with this story. That would obviously be the first time that anyone has ever thought that here.
A friend of mine works at a local museum that has a legend surrounding it to be haunted by a housekeeper who hung herself in a spiral stairway many, many years ago. They tell storys of hearing a vacuum cleaner running in one particular room and when they open the door it stops and no one is there. I actually got married in this building about 19 years ago and on the wedding video there is a part where you can clearly hear footsteps on a large staircase that leads into the main room where the wedding was but the wedding photo album shows pictures taken at that time by the photographer from completely different areas and no one else was walking around... plus no one in the video turns to look at who's coming down the stairs like they don't even hear it. Fast forward to today. I'm hanging out with my friend in the prep room while she prepares a new item for showing. She needs a new pitcher of water for cleaning and asks me to go to the kitchen for it. So I head off. The kitchen is one floor below and the quickest access is the door to the spiral staircase right around the corner... it goes right down to the kitchen. I open the door and about 5 feet in front on me is a woman hanging by a rope over the next section of stairs... facing the other direction, dressed in mostly white but wearing a black bonnet or head cover. I didn't panic or freak out. Immediately the storys came back to me. I closed the door, went back into the prep room, set the pitcher down and told my friend I needed her to come downstairs with me because I'd seen something. She knows all about it so she did. She went first and there was nothing in the staircase... on the way down or on the way up. She said it was the first sighting in weeks... not months or years but weeks. Yes I know how crazy this sounds. I wasn't even going to share it but what the hell. I'm not saying I believe whole-heartedly but I'm not a non-believer by any means. I've had other experiences that make me wonder too. Call me insane or share your storys and beliefs. |

Oh... not really. Pleasant looking, not hot. Sweet girl, good friend.

I realize that non believers can easily say I had a scenario made up in my head just having known about the storys. FWIW I've been in the museum many times with no "experiences." In fact so many that I'd pretty much forgotten about it... until today.

The footsteps on the video would be my first experience although it was hard to "prove" anything. This would be my second experience 19 years later. I've been in there probably 200 times in between.

OK here's the embarrassing part I guess. I made Timmie (my friend who is a girl but has a guys name) hold my hand and stay on the same step as we went down then back up the stairs... then I made her walk me out when I left. She laughed at me.
