Ghost Children
Pitter patter of tiny feet running down the hall past the stroke of midnight, the faint giggles or crying in the night. Only…you don’t have any children.
The subject of a ghost child strikes sadness and woe in the hearts and souls of all. Picturing anyone passing away is difficult enough, but the untimely death of a child is so much more than some can bear.
When dealing with these unique spirits, special considerations and behaviors are a must. A ghost hunter must take into consideration that this child entity may have no comprehension of what has happened to them. Passing on with a youthful spirituality may leave the child ghost with a misunderstanding of the other side.
As with every being, we are given free will and choice in all that we do, including whether or not we decide to go directly home in the afterlife, or stick around for a while. Children, being blissfully naive and full of light and love, may enjoy the initial sensations of being free and weightless so very much, that they choose to stay right where they are. Also, they are impressed upon from a very early age that they are to go nowhere without their parents permission. With these considerations in mind, it can actually be quite difficult to convince a child to listen to you and go where they belong.
This type of spirit can be particularly difficult to locate, let alone to get them to stay in one place long enough for you to communicate with or get any type of evidence. Children, even ghost children, are naturally tenacious, which can be both good and bad.
Often sprightly and mischievous, they usually find a favorite person living in the household and cling to them. Sometimes they choose another child to be their friend, resulting in the phenomena known as the imaginary friend.
Occasionally they pick a favorite parent, one, like their own parent that they may have been closer to in life.
These situations, though seemingly innocent and harmless, can turn upsetting rather quickly. Ghost children can become very upset if routine is disrupted. If their favorite living person is gone for a day or two, they may become pouty and destructive. When their demands aren’t met to their standards, they can behave quite immaturely. Hiding items, damaging things and making noise is not uncommon.
One of my clients reported a child ghost often climbing into bed with him late at night and snuggling as a child with their father. When he would turn over to look, of course, there was no one there. This particular ghost was so attached to her father figure, she was would get jealous and upset if anyone else were to spend time with him.
Though rarely violent, it can be a challenge to get these determined and free spirited beings to head towards the light. Speak to them with the tones you would use with a living child. Kind and patient, yet firm and authoritative. They must be told point blank that their parents or loved ones are waiting for them elsewhere. If their parents are still alive, then the communicator must convince the child of the glorious lands awaiting them.

I can’t even sleep anymore with this child in my room at night. I have even contacted paranormal state. Never in my life had I had to take sleeping pills, but the energy is so intense I feel it when I’m awake & if I am sleeping it jolts me that I am instantly awake.
Barbie…I am having a similar problem…eight weeks now (actually, she has been trying to get my attention for over 2 1/2 years now – until I finally figured it out).
How did your experience end up? I am having a hard time getting her to go towards the light.
Thanks,
Beth
Many of the houses I have lived in are haunted I’ve been able to see them romeing around I just can’t explain it. Some of my friends can too.
I would do all I could to help the child find their way… Never could I be mean… I would want it to find peace.
I just acquired one recently. It sounds like a little girl and seems
to have a great time trying to startle me, which she has. Thanks
for the input and I will talk to her.
I’ve always wondered why the powers that be cant help gost children get to the other side. Especially child ghosts that have passed through trama. I wonder why heaven, God, the Universe, would not just take them directly there, even if they didnt realize they were dead, or wanted to stay around. What about the parents of the child, who have also passed on, would they not try to help their child caight in limbo to cross over? How does this all work?
Hi there Karen, very important questions, thank you.
Even without our earthly bodies, we are still under the Universal Law of Free Will. Any spirit that so chooses to remain on the third density plane with do so even with attempts from higher sources of energy guiding them. There is really no difference between the energy of an adult ghost compared to a child ghost.
If they feel the need to complete a mission or are ‘stuck’ on the earthly plane, it is viewed the same as a ‘experience’ in spiritual terms. The spirit may simply not feel ready to move on to the higher realms. It is similar to living human experiences when we question why others would stay in unfavorable conditions on earth, example, abusive relationships or self inflicted negative conditioning.
A spirit is no different, each have their own unique reasoning as to why they would chose to cling to the earthly realm. Children may want to stay near their parents or feel that they were somehow cheated out of their time here.
While spirit guides and higher conscious entities do try to reach these individuals, the ghost simply will not listen or even acknowledge the issues. I’m sure we all know stubborn living human beings who repeatedly ignore the wise words of others. Ghosts are no different in that respect. Free will is universal among all sources of conscious entities.
I hope that helps Karen. Take care.
Thank you so much, I see what you’re saying, that makes sense. It’s good to know there are people out there than can help them go to the other side, if they feel they are ready to go. I’m a Mother, so I feel comforted knowing that some people with special talents try to help the souls of childreen who have passed. When I see these shows like Paranormal State, etc, and they talk about a child spirit being trapped there, I always felt uncomfortable knowing a gost child was calling for it’s “Mama”. But you have explained it really well to me, so thanks. Take care,
Karen

Hi am dealing with a ghost child now. It is a little boy about 2 or three. I dont know his stroy but I have been trying to find out why he is in my house. He is always around me but I never noticed because he is invisible. But I heard the footsteps of little feet he pokes at my boyfreind and I when we are sleep. He even yelled in my ear once to get my attention. He runs around the house giggling all the time. At first I was terrified of him becasue late at night I can hear him in the room. He would also get in the bed with me and curl up under me. I didnt realize it until I started intercating more with him. I remmeber waking up sometimes so cold or wondering why my arm is so cold. Thats how I can tell that he is in the bed or next to me because he feels cold. I soon realized he was just a child and brought him some toys from the dollar store. Also baloons. He loves the baloons. He was so excited to see the bag of toys that anytime he sees a bag u can hear him opening to see if it is any toys for him. I am working with this ghost mover company that is going to cross him over. He will be missed but he does not belong here. I do not fear him anymore. He is just a lost child that need help.
That is a beautiful story, thank you so much! Thank you for sharing and being so wonderfully compassionate to that sweet little ghost boy.

Hello,
My girlfriend’s little sister has an imaginary friend that is not so imaginary if you know what I mean. My girlfriend and her father have both seen this little girl several times running from them. My girlfriends sister says that her “friend” is afraid of everybody else. We had her sister ask some questions, and we found out her “friend”‘s name and age. Oddly enough, her “friend” has decided to take the families last name instead of using her own. The two are quite attached to each other. I’m not sure what to do. I am currently trying to research the history of their neighborhood (it’s brand new, nothing but pasture before) and am not coming up with many results. This little girl seems to be pretty happy where she is, and I don’t want to upset her and cause a negative reaction by trying to talk to her. Any advice?
Thanks,
Tim
Thank you for writing Tim, it’s nice to know that you are taking the little sister seriously. Many adults tend to find it easier to tell a child that it’s just their imagination.
Even though the spirit seems to run away from people, she can still hear you if you were to speak with her. If you can locate a room or area in the house where you can ‘sense’ her presence strongest, that would be a great place to begin communicating with her. The more you talk out loud to her, the more she will begin to trust you and anyone else attempting to befriend her. She is absolutely no different than a living human child, just without the body. She still has the instinct of self preservation and ‘stranger’ awareness as a living child.
Pretend that she is simply a neighbour child or any other that you’d like to befriend. Speak to her normally as you would anyone else, she will eventually begin to trust you more. She may not understand however that she is dead, it might be best to refrain from that type of discussion until you know she is trusting in you.
The little sister is the best person to speak with the little girl and just let her know that no one there will hurt her.
I hope this helps a bit, keep in touch and let me know of any updates.
Take care,
Danielle Lee
I had my own little experience earlier tonight with a little boy ‘ghost.’ I would say he is about 3 or so. I had a ‘nightmare’ that seemed so real. When I awoke around midnight or so I couldn’t move. I tried to get off my couch and I just felt so heavy. Finally I was able to move and my thought was get out of the house because things were getting weird. I then heard children outside my house. Thinking it was my neighbors I peared out the window trying to figure out why they were outside that late. When I did, it was not them. There was little boy wearing a t-shirt and some jeans and sneakers in my driveway. He looked so real. Then he turned and looked at me pearing out the window. He smiled, held his hands out and started coming towards the house. I had an OBE that I was standing on my porch waiting for him. When he reached the steps of my porch, he disappeared. Then I was back in my house pearing thru the window. I then started to gather my things to get out when my cat went crazy and the lights started to flicker. I’m actually at my boyfriend’s typing this right now. I’m a bit freaked out. Any insight will help very much. Thank you.
My wife came across your website because of the sketch of the little girl who eerily resembles our daughter. Thankfully she is still with us. I was curious who we would contact if we wanted to incorporate this sketch into a picture for promotional purposes.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I’m afraid I don’t know the author of the picture, so I don’t have the copyright to allow that. I found it on Photobucket, so maybe the artist is there. Sorry.
I have been looking all over the internet for the answer to my question.I see things all the time more so when I was little then now.Lately I have been playing with a little boy in my dreams.He started popping up after I found out I am pregnant(9 weeks now-I see more things when I am pregnant-3rd time around,no children).I normally never see children spirits-but last night he came out of my dreams and was watching me sleep.I woke up with him staring at me.But he looked really sick and ill.He was very,very small and had these black cycles around his eyes.Very detailed for it to be my imagination.I freaked out and had to claim down,I figured he wasn’t hurting me and I went back to sleep.I might sound crazy but I want to know if it was normal for them to look so ill and kinda evil,and so real.He’s very playful and alive in my dreams.Can they be in both?
Like I said things like this happens all the time for me,I see things in dreams and randomly in this world.I’ve just never seen a child out of my dreams before.
We have lived in our house for a year now. We hear foot steps only on the stairway to the top floor. After moving in we didn’t hear anything, but slowly things have been happening. We (mostly my husband) have heard foot steps, giggling, laughter and recently music. One morning just prior to me getting up, while in a semi-sleep state, I heard what I thought was my daughter call me “Mama”, when I opened my eyes, she wasn’t there, I looked all over the house, and checked her and she was sleeping in her room. My husband has had things said into his ear and heard giggling, laughter, and recently music from my grand piano. He thought that maybe, by some chance that the cats were walking on the piano, but it was a song. When he went downstairs, there was no one there and the cats where in another room sleeping. He talked to a person who grew up in the house, and asked her if anything had happened while she lived there and she was shocked. She had grew up in the room that we have had most of the encounters. Before anything was said, she described giggling, laughter, talking in your ear etc. All in this very room. She said that she felt that they were 2 little girls and a baby was also in the house. We are not afraid, but I wish to be able to help these children get to the otherside where their parents are. Do you have any suggestios?
Sorry, I’ve been busy finishing up my second novel.
It depends of what kind of haunting it is.
If it’s a residual haunting, one where it’s just an energy signature trapped in a loop, it’s not a real ghost or person trapped. Residual hauntings do not respond to stimuli.
If it’s an intelligent haunting, one where they respond to questions or try to contact you, they can be told to go into the light or that they are dead and must move on. Sometimes they just aren’t ready yet. Just like living beings, they are learning through experiences.
Try recording yourself asking them questions and if there are voices responding to you caught on the tape, it is an intelligent haunting.
If they aren’t frightening you, sometimes it’s best just to let them move on in their own time.
Hope I’ve helped.

We have recently had some investigators come to our home and on some audio was a little girl saying ( Jenny help?) Now I know she was asking me for help. Please what can I do to help this little girl whom my heart crys for?
The best thing to do is continuously tell her to go to the light. Tell her that her family is in the light. It may take many tries before she get it and you have to understand that no matter what you do, she may not be ready to leave yet.
Did the investigators tell you whether they interacted with this spirit or if it was just a voice they picked up randomly? If they picked it up randomly, it may only be a residual haunting, just energy left behind replaying a scenario. If they interacted with her, communicated, then she may be a trapped soul.
Keep sending her positive energy and telling her it’s time for her to go home. Eventually, she’ll listen.
I hope that helps.
Hugs!
i am 13 years old and i have and i have not one but 3 child ghosts in my room now. and i am being fully seriuos this is not some stupid teenager messing with you guys. i need help!!!!! it started out i heard giggling in my closet and i have a younger brother so i thought it might be him but he is sound asleep in the room next door so i layed back down in my bed and it continued. the next night the same thing happened only they had entered my dreams and i cant talk to them i can only watch as they talk to eachother there were only two of them then. the third day nothing they were gone and i went to sleep quickly but they came back into my dreams sending me a message saying that they would be back to play soon. i woke up in a cold sweat and i was crying. this has been going on for weeks now and they did come back about two days after. i can always tell when they are there because the air gets thick and it is hard to breath at first then i can hear whispering. i have had my mom come and stay with me while they were there but she noticed nothing starnge. just recently they have been joined by another child and now i see them in the door way of my closet or at the side of my bed. they have learned how to turn my power off in my room and i can tell it is just in my room because my brother like to leave the bathroom light on which is right next to my room and it stays on when this happens. they have now started to scratch me and its relly starting to scare me. one night i was laying in bed li sting to music and everything turned off and i felt something touch my leg so my reaction was to kick and when i did this i heard a scream and then it scratched me. a couple days later they started slamming doors in my room and none of this happened before the 3rd child came. if you have any questions or help for me please email me or respond here. I NEED YOUR HELP!!!!!! i cant keep dealing with this.
Hey Mikayla, the best things to do in this situation is tell it to go away as soon as it starts to bother you. Also, ignore it. It’s like a bad little kid that just wants attention and when it makes you afraid, it’s happy and keeps doing it. Try not to react when it provokes you.
Hope that helps.
Danielle
it came back last night and i have been telling all of them to go away but they want something. i found out last night in a dream that there are 2 little girls and a boy. one of the girls told me in the dream that she needed help from something but i dont know what. please write back ASAP.
i told them to go away as soon as they came and they came back last night but they played a game so they didnt bother me. i had a dream though, see in the dream i found out that there are 2 little girls and a boy. one of the girls told me that i had to save her before the monster came to get her. she started to scream in the dream and bleed so i woke up crying again and i asked her to talk to me but i got nothing. please write back ASAP
I know the dreams seem very real but in the paranormal world, entities cannot enter your mind, conscious or unconscious. Dreams are always of one’s own creation. If there are odd things happening while you are awake, that’s a different story. Keep telling them to leave you alone and eventually they will. Ignore them as much as you can. Above all, try to remain calm and know that your mind will play tricks on you when you are tired or stressed.
okay well that is good to hear. i didnt like the idea of them being inside my head but im gonna try to tlk to them tonight. i will let you know how it goes.
well my dream was right how did that happen? her name is kasey and she says she needs my help or she will disappear forever and that that cant happen yet what do i do ?????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This makes for some interesting reading.. My fiance and his boss are currently experiencing some wacky goings on in their workplace. To give you some examples, things that have not been used, or touched in months are falling over or moving, yesterday a pen was removed and dropped from a desk inches from my partners hand – there was no noise like there normally is when something rolls, or is dragged, it just dropped on the floor – something propped sturdily in a corner fell forwards into the room, not sliding down the wall or anything… We have all expereienced very “heavy” feelings in certain areas of the building, but not at a specific time of day.
We have researched the area to find there was a disaster very closeby in 1929 which resulted in the deaths of 71 children. Is it likely that if the entity is the spirit of one of the children, that he/she lived nearby? (For example across the street from their current building) Or would it be impossible to say?
I also wonder if you can give us some advice as to how to establish who the ghost is – not necessarily a child, but anyone? And how to perhaps find out why things seem to have gotten more obvious in the last few months alone…
Any help you can give would be greatfully received!
Thanks,
Lainey xx
Hi Lainey,
Sounds like there might definitely be something paranormal there, considering the history and consistent behaviors. The first thing to do is to make sure there is absolutely no other explanation for the occurrences. Once you’ve established it’s most likely paranormal, there are a few things you can do.
One is to acquire a very good tape recorder and, choosing a quiet time of day, record yourself asking questions to the entity. When played back, you may be able to capture answers. Ask their name, their age, etc.
Paranormal behavior tends to act up if there are renovations or big changes going on within the building. They may be attracted to a person who is very emotional or in a spiritual state of mind.
Remember, they cannot and won’t hurt you, they’re no different than us, they just don’t have their body anymore. If it becomes annoying, you can ask them to leave and eventually they will.
I hope this helps.
Hugs,
Danielle
Hi Danielle,
Thanks for the advice, we will give it a try and let you know if we need anymore of your help
Lainey xx
please can you help me i keep dreaming about children in spirit
i dont know any of them also ive seen them while ive been awake i dont have chance to speak to them as know sooner as they appear they go again .
what do they want ? if its help then how do i help them ? what do i do ??????
Hi Cassie, please refer to my recent comment made on Ghost Children. It simply states that the very best thing to do is to contact them through EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena). By using a tape recorder, it is possible to ask them questions and possibly hear a response. Ghosts do not often invade dreams, however. There are specific universal laws in place which prevents them from invading another being’s consciousness. You may be dreaming of them due to seeing or sensing them, but don’t worry too much about them. They will move on when they can.

Hi my name is Brittany! I currently live in Monongahela Pa with my three year old son Alex in a rental house since October 2009. Well when I moved in I felt the cold spots in the house and always felt something was there. My bedroom door would swing open any time it was closed. A few days before Christmas a heavy ashtray flew off the top of my dresser and almost smacked me in the head =/… you can hear foot steps upstairs in my bed room, it seems like everything has been happening in my bed room up until Jan 13th 2011 2:44 pm, my son took a picture in my living room in front of my couch… i tried up loading it, hope it works.. I need input on this, idk if these are children and if i should try to communicate with them.
Hi Brittany, you can most definitely try to communicate with them. Using a hand held tape recorder is useful in possibly hearing their response. Don’t be too worried about them being earthbound though, they have soul issues to work out just like we living people do. If they frighten you, you can ask them to leave you alone and after a few tries, they should.

I moved into my house in 2002 and have always heard footsteps of a child, sometimes walking, sometimes running. I have four children ranging from ages 13- 2. Evertime I hear the footsteps it is really late like 12:30AM and on. I know my children are sleeping because I get up to make sure they are not up. I have never been scared, but last night I was. I was reading to my younger 3 children in the living room when I glanced towards the hallway were my children’s rooms are and saw a dress of a little girl run off at the moment I looked that way. My fiance was in the living room as well and noticed my expression and asked if I saw something. When I said yes- he started telling me the past couple of nights he has heard the footsteps again and has felt a presense at our bedside- as if someone staring at him. My oldest son stayed at his grandparents house, so I know no one else was in the house. I’m trying not to be scared and not sure what this child wants. I started to wonder if since I was reading to my children, maybe she wanted to listen in as well. I have always read to my children and don’t understand why now I am able to see her. I want her to be were she needs to be. Help….
Hi Maritza, as long as she’s not bothering you and you’ve told her to go into the light and she hasn’t, she’s just not ready yet. If she bothers you, tell her she has to leave you alone and she will eventually listen. Hope that helps!
My dad is 90 yrs old and legally blind. About a year ago, he started seeing children playing around him, they would reach out and when he reaches for them they would pull back, he can describe them to a t, at this time my mom was starting to get ill, 2-3rd stage cancer and dimentia, after my mom passed, dad never spoke of the children. He is now battling lung cancer himself and the children are back. there is one common child, a boy about 3 or 4, he seems to like to tease my dad. my dad is home most of the day by himself, one of us kids goes right after work and has dinner with him and spends the nite. dad talks to them all the time. stern but gentle, he will tell them to get down off of there before you get hurt, or come sit down and watch tv, my siblings do not see or hear anything and not freaked out or anything, we are just wondering why the left after mom died and came back when dad got ill, are they calling him home……..thank you for your input……..cindy
Hi Cindy, I feel that he sees them for a couple of reasons. One is that his sixth sense is stronger because of his blindness. We tend to develop our other senses when one or more is damaged. Two, his age. He’s closer to the next dimension than most younger people so the veil has lifted for him. I feel the reason that the children went away when your mother died is because he shut down and was grounded back into reality. Our ability to see and feel the other side diminishes when we are depressed. As for who they are, there could be a couple of explanations. Did you have any siblings that passed on? Even miscarriages count. They could simply be ghosts living within the house and are attracted to him because of his ability to see them. Or they could be his spirit guides waiting to bring him home.
I hope this helps.
Hugs,
Danielle
Danielle,
thank you for your responsee, after reading it to my sisiter i said to her that i now feel a sense of peace, her and i worry about him while no one is there during the day, but now feel that he is not really alone and in some sense they keep him occupied especially the little boy who my sister said wanted my dads spaghetti the nite before and kept trying to steal it off his plaste, of course j0-ann could not see him but dad said the the boy had a fork and would not stop, again, i thank you
Hi,
I am 23 years old. My brother lives in his house alone. no children, no girlfriend only his puggle. Wilbur. Today I was over there cleaning his house and doing his laundry. While i was cleaning the counters and stove I heard jingling. As if someone was jingling car keys i thought that maybe he was home early from work. I walked into the living room , no one was there. Doorr still shut, tv off. I forgot about it thinking i was imagining things. An hour later i was scrubbing the kitchen floor, when i heard a bang in his bedroom than almost as if someone was running from his bedroom into the living room, and then BANG again. I got alittle frightened at that moment. So I hurried up and scrubbed the floor as fast as I can. I picked up the mop bucket and went to the bathroom to dump it out. When I returned on the kitchen floor where the carpet meets linoleum two foot prints as if someone was standing there and I mopped around them? That it was it looked like it was completely dry but around the foot prints was still wet! I freaked and ran out of the house.. 2 hours later I returned to check on his laundry as i was walking out the door it sounded as if someone was digging in the cupboard where the dishes are. I could hear dishes clinking around! Again I left! I only live across the street from him. I got home and looked out my window his front door was wide open!! I am a very skeptical person. So I kept telling myself Oh Meagen your going crazy must be all the chemicals you were breathing!! Well I called my brother and told him about this, and he explained to me he has heard that same stuff at night when he is home. I was alittle relieved to realize i wasnt the only one hearing this, and so was he, he had thought he was losing it too. He had also told me that one night he just heard all this running around he thought it was his puggle, so he yelled out WILBUR stop! Well it stopped, but when he looked down by his feet, wilbur was snorring away!! He got up turned lights on and found a tiny dirty hand print on his wall! I have never EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS EVER. I have NEVER experienced anything PARANORMAL this is by far the scariest thing I have EVER experienced. He said the only thing he ever hears is the jingling noise and footsteps..Ive heard alot more today.. im wandering if it didnt like me being at his house?
This has really helped me my house is haunted i keep hearing foot steps and laughing in the day and night also i have actully seen a figure standing in the hallway and in my room when i try to look at it it runs away thourgh the wall but i get a small look it looks like a child its short and has short brownish hair looks about 7 i think its a girl its always moving things about and i can make out a smile on its face sometimes i try to talk to it but it just knocks on the wall i figured out that when she knocks one time it means yes two times no i tryed to get her to go to the light but then she gets mad at me she goes in to a rage when i say about her parents waiting for her up there i think she does not like her parents
Please, I am seeking advice on how to talk to my children about our little “friend.” See, it’s not our house that’s haunted….it’s our family. About 8 years ago (when we lived in a different state than we do now), one of our sons started saying our unusual acitivies (things being moved, etc) were done by his friend “Mogley.” Our son was stunned that we couldn’t see Mogley when he was sitting right there at the dinner table or standing at the end of the hallway, etc. This continued for two years. We never rebuked our son for this, but just assumed it was imaginary. For a while.
Then we moved to another state, yet the exact same activities continued to occur. We’ve lived in two houses since then and still the same activities. Nothing really bad, menacing or dangerous. Just odd. Still my husband and I were nervous and wouldn’t discuss it in the house in case Mogley overheard. Finally we stopped skirting the issue and discussed it together openly in the house. Almost immediately, Mogley made himself known to us.
Mogley has not spoken to us but appears all the time. Twice this week, in fact, that he was visible to the eye. Still he’s around all the time, even when we can’t see him. We can “feel” him in the room and know his behavior as well as that of our own children. In fact, he’s almost like a kid of our own, he’s been around so long. Gosh, it feels silly saying that.
Okay so here’s the issue. We have six children. The one who “knows” Mogley is now 11 years old and rarely sees Mogley anymore, yet still knows when Mogley is around. The older children (aged 19, 17, 13) know Mogley is there and are nervous, yet not appearing to be afraid to be alone in the house. The younger children (aged 7 and 5) have seen Mogley, but have not spoken to him that we are aware of. They just know there’s an extra kid and since Mamma and Daddy aren’t freaking out they aren’t either. My husband and I have seen him (very very very often these days) but have not spoken to him. To be honest, we’re just plain not comfortable openly speaking to him, concerned that it might open up some problems we’re not able to deal with.
We do NOT feel threatened by Mogley, though he does accidentally startle us sometimes. I’m going to sound absolutely insane, but here goes……we think Mogley loves our family and wants to be a part of it, but always feels a little on the outside. We are comfortable with him on the outside and DO NOT want to bring him on the inside of our family circle, but also don’t feel the need to run him off. After all, he’s not hurting a darn thing. He’s just there. And silly as it seems, he usually only does things that are helpful. He sits at the dinner table at supper time, puts toys back in the toybox…..he’ll even turn the lights out for a kid that’s fallen asleep with the lights on. In fact, just last night I forgot to turn off my bathroom light, was lying in bed and commented on it to my husband and suddenly the bathroom light turned off. So it seems that Mogley wants to be helpful. Sometimes things go missing, but I can’t completely blame that on Mogley since there ARE six living children in this house. LOL
If Mogley is indeed not menacing toward any family members (left the babies alone when they were newborns, doesn’t break things or seemingly intentionally scare anyone) yet chooses to remain here in our home with us rather than moving on to the “light” … and if my family continues to be okay with him here…..how exactly are we supposed to talk to our children about this? It’s a little ridiculous to keep avoiding the issue when it’s so obvious every day. We don’t want to scare the kids “Hey kids, there’s a dead kid here and we just have to live with it”….but we don’t want them to be inviting him to stay permanently either. We want him to go when he’s ready but we want our children to be able to talk openly about it without making it a huge issue.
This really is becoming an elephant in the room issue for us and none of us know how to talk about it….or even if we SHOULD talk about it within Mogley’s hearing. Any advice would be deeply appreciated. Thank you so much for taking the time to read all of this. I look forward to a (hopeful) response.
Hi Becky, thanks for writing.
The first thing that popped into my mind as I was reading your letter was to ask if you’ve had a miscarriage. Sometimes unborn children can linger with their families for years after they should have moved on. Because he’s moving locations with you, he’s not a typical ghost. He’s attached to you or your son somehow. If he’s the same age as your son, he could very well have been a twin that never fully developed in the womb.
If you repeatedly ask Mogley to leave, he will eventually, or may just make himself less known if he understands he’s not wanted around.
The way I explain ghosts to my children is that they were once flesh and blood people who were loved and are now lonely or have a reason for hanging around. They are not to be feared, but understood. Experiencing life doesn’t end just because we die. He must need something from you and your family. Something about the dynamics of your household is something he is learning from.
One thing I always suggest to others is to do the tape recorder test. Sit in a quiet room, one that Mogley is often felt or seen, and with a tape recorder, ask him questions. When you play it back, you may be able to capture his voice on the recorder and gain insight to what he might need to move on.
I hope I’ve helped.
Hugs,
Danielle
Thank you so very much for the quick reply. In fact, twins do run in my husband’s family and I miscarried twins about 2 years before Mogley began appearing in our family. It is also highly possible that our son who Mogley first appeared to was a twin. I had never even considered that. We’ve often felt that Mogley “belonged” to us somehow, but it hadn’t occurred to me that he could well have been one of our own children that we lost. But now that I think about it, his body shape, hair color and personality certainly do fit right in. Sheesh. How could I have been so blind?
I’m going to talk to my husband about your response and we’ll find a way to talk to the kids about it. We’re taking them out for a special dinner tonight and since Mogley never follows us outside of the house (that we’ve ever been aware of), we’ll likely discuss it with them then.
Honestly, I’ve been VERY concerned about talking openly to Mogley, but considering he could well be one of our own lost little ones, it adds a whole new dimension to the “relationship” we have with him and does take a great deal of that fear away. Definitely talking to my husband about this.
Again, thank you so very much for the quick reply. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate it.
We used your advice and talked to our kids. Apparently, it wasn’t nearly as much of an issue as I had thought it was. LOL They all shared some of their experiences with Mogley and said they were never afraid. The most common thing they said was that they’d prefer he just be more open about being there instead of running off when it got too noisy in the house….”aren’t all kids noisy?” they asked. LOL So I suppose we’ll just continue as we always have. Thanks again!!!
That’s wonderful! I’m so happy no one was afraid or anything. Thank you for updating me.
Hello my roommate and I have noticed that lately a lot of strange things have been going on and we need some help. It all started when I moved in with him and everything was going great and stuff. But, lately things have been a little odd. Like for instance when my roommate and I went to make a midnight snack we left our dorm room, and when we came back my Xbox 360 was on and my closet doors were wide open also my roommates over head light was on. Also he never uses his over head light. The odd thing is that the ghost likes to do most of the active when my roommate is alone and none when I am around or alone. From what my roommate says it is a
girl ghost. My roommate and I are trying not to make her angry or upset, and we don’t want to know what will happen if it would come to that. Lastly, what do you think of the situation? One last thing i know that ghosts can use electronic devices to help them get energy and with all of the stuff I have it is possible that the ghost is getting super charged off of everything i own.
Hi there Ricky, sounds like she’s just checking things out and saying hello in her own way. Don’t worry about upsetting her or making her angry, ghosts are no different than you or I, just unable to communicate in the same manner as the living. If you’d like her to leave, say it aloud in the room she’s most prevalent every day and she’ll eventually get the hint. If you’d like to make friends with her, say a friendly hello whenever you sense her presence or notice she’s done something in the room. Yes, ghosts get energy from electronics, but not as much as from humans. She may simply be attracted to one of your energies and like your company.
Try not to worry and just enjoy the cool experience.
Ok. So..I’m fifteen. I live kind of out in the country, and back in the eighteen hundreds, the small town i live in was burnt down several times by a neighbooring, rival, town. Many died..and an entire orphanage was destroyed, killing all children and adults living in the building in exception of two. I’ve lived in this house since i was about seven and there seems to be a little girl..maybe seven..eight..maybe even five! Who seems to be wondering around my home. She comes and goes..sometimes my family will go months and months without even noticing her and then sometimes weeks at a time she is very noticable and at sometimes annoying and clingy. My mom always made jokes saying that she liked me because i would often find signs of her in my room. Things would be misplaced and when i would joke around and ask for a missing item back..it would somehow appear in a different spot. There is often quiet giggling and she seems to get very violent (as if she’s jealous) when i have friends or other guests over..spending time with me. Everything is now all adding up. Thank you for this!
Hi My name is Michael. a few days ago my mother told me that she saw the figure of a little girl standing next to her bed when she woke early in the morning she said she didnt feel scared or threatend in anyway she said it was peaceful then she told me just today that she saw the same figure when she woke again but it was standing in the arch of her door. I was wondering if the spirits of Unborn children can come back and watch over there mothers? my mother lost a child about 22 years ago, she lost it about 5 months into her pregnacy and i was just wondering if that could be a possiblity? Thanks
-Michael
Hi Michael, the answer to your question is yes, miscarried children can sometimes linger, but this doesn’t sound like that to me. My instinct tells me there’s more to this little girl. A story. Keep digging. Check the history of the house. I just have a feeling.
Thanks for the information, it is very helpful. My boyfriend, my two kids, and I have a little visitor as well, and she is very playful. She had followed my boyfriend Matt from his house to mine when he moved in. I don’t feel her per sea, and I’ve never seen her, but she likes to stack things. About two or three nights a week she gets into something. Last night, for instance, she stacked eleven cans of can goods in the kitchen, straight up in a perfect tower! She also likes shoes. She is always taking our shoes and neatly placing them in front of my bedroom door. A couple of nights ago I left a small stack of paper on the floor in the living room with some of my son’s markers, and I asked her to write her name so I would know how to address her. Nothing happened that night, but last night, along with the stacking of cans, she wrote a name, twice! Once in print and another in jagged cursor, like that of a child between 8-11. “Rebeca” is what she wrote!! I am excited that I now know her name so that I can help her if I can. At first, when I noticed things amiss, I was afraid. But now that I recognize that her behaviors are like that of my children, and I understand more. I speak to her tenderly, the same way that I talk to my children, and I am hoping for more interaction in the future.
hey my name is sam…..im 18 now but wen i was little in my old house i got ALOT of ghost experience! im from new orleans and theres always paranormal stuff going on around there but its not until now that i truely realise everything that happend in my house. when i was young i always knew there was another kid in my house nobody could see except for me but i never really tlkd to him. but at night i always heard him say “she scares me” in my ear in a whisper. i never understood what he ment but i did after awhile. my tv would turn on in teh middle of the night and even if i unplugged it it would still be on….so i took it out the house and it was still on but on the lawn!!! years after i figured there must be another person there besides the kid…but not as nice. i went through years of small scares but they all eventually stopped. i never really heard from the kid anymore and i missed him. not too long ago i asked my mom about the house and she said wen i was 4 she was really depressed and sick and didnt know why….but after being prayed on she felt all better out of nowhere…but that day she was holding me and she said told her that i saw a mean looking lady staring at me that had red stuff on her face (im assuming it was blood or something now that im older). but i told her that the mean lady left the room and i cudnt see her anymore. im really wondering if that lady was the one scaring me as a kid. i remember waking up but not being able to open my eyes….and i tried as hard as i could to lift my hands and open them myself but i cudnt and eventually passed out again as if i was being held down the whole time. years and years later im in texas now but im worried that the little boy is still there…and that the lady is there too. i dont really know if theres anything i can do now
Ok so this has been on going for sometime for me since I moved into this appartment. When my daughter was three and construction was going on across the road from us. I was in the bathroom finishing my shower when i heard knocking. We had a large window in door at the time, so she was able to see into the hall but I always kept the door locked so she wouldn’t wander way. This lil girl was looking for her dog my daughter tells me when i got out to answer the door. No one was there, I had thought it was my neighbors girl but it was a school day and as i said no one was there. I came up stairs and my duaghter was calling me to say she was outside. I went to the window and looked outside and noone was there. My daughter said see saw her cross the street and go into the place where they were digging which had a 6 foot fence that was locked at the time. I told her noone is allowed in there so she didn’t go in there. She just looked at me and said “Yes she did mommy, she is going to look for her dog.” It sent chills up my spine and I believe her and what she saw. I asked her a couple of times what she was wearing and it seems she had passed on from earlier then the 1940′s from the type of dress she wore. From then on we had a couple of unexplainable things happend some scary and some not to scary. Sometime we hear what sounds like someone running in our appartment, my daughter has heard voices like whispers in her ear, but once the construction across the street stopped it had really calmed down alot. My daughter is now & and nothing has happened since last year which is awesome, and nothing has happened around me either. Now my sister and her newborn just moved in last month below me, she smokes and of course smokes outside, at night when she goes outside for a smoke, she can hear a lil girl crying and the sound is coming from the area from where my bottom landing is. She can’t pin point it and it does happen everytime she’s out there alone at night. It makes my heart break to know a child is there alone scare and there is nothing i can do about it. I just hope she’s not stuck to the one place. And for some reason whenever the spritual activity would pick up more in the winter time, and i have no idea why. =/
I enjoyed reading these postings. I will describe my own experience which I hope might assist others, or perhaps just provide some extra information of interest.
Last month I encounteredi a young spirit girl who had died in an accident.
Initially I was very surprised but now she often visits. I now find the exchange very pleasureable – you know really good fun. Perhaps it is because I am in my sixties and the Veil is very thin. Additionally I have practised meditation for many years. I like music but my attempts at singing in the past have met with limited success. But with this spirit companion near by all the ‘ragged, jagged bits have gone.’ I’ve also stopped smoking during this period.
Perhaps as a man I needed a counterbalance of female energy in my make up – you know, ying and yang. When she goes I say to her, in a light hearted manner, and whilst also smiling, ‘See you again, maybe, but if not, it was nice to meet you.’
I think it’s important to realise that there is often a very positive aspect in meeting spirit friends.
Hello, my name is Melissa. I am 31 years old. I have had a few encounters with ghosts in my lifetime but nothing solid since the age of 15. The very first experience I had was when I was only 4 years old. I did not really understand what was happening in my new bedroom but I was terrified. My parents had divorced and my mother and I moved into a new little house in Glendale, CA. Almost instantly I started seeing things moving around my room at night. It was always after my mom left the room and closed my door. I slept with the lamp on my dresser on, always. There are a few instances that are burned in my brain. One night my large doll that my grandma had given me for my b-day just got up out of the corner and started moving around my room. The limbs moved the head moved and the head started turning around toward me and I screamed for my mom. The doll flew back into the corner and my mom came in looked around and told me to go back to sleep, it was only a dream,etc. I gave the doll back to my grandma the next day. Another time out of the same corner the doll was in my plastic beach shovel came across the room towards me. I was so shocked, I could not yell. All I knew was that this was not normal for my toys to be moving on their own and it scared me very much. The shovel kept getting closer and it started to go between the wooden bars of my headboard and bang on my head. It was painful and I was finally able to cry out for my mom. The shovel instantly was thrown back over in the corner, just like my doll. My mom saw nothing and was upset that I kept waking her up with my “nightmares”. They were not dreams, I was wide awake for all of these events. I started talking about it at school, telling the little girl who lived next door everytime she came over that my toys moved by themselves and that I thought “something” was in my room. My parents blamed it on the stress of the divorce, nobody believed me. Several other things happened but those were the worst. I always felt that someone was in my room with me at night, I knew he was there every night! Always much more active at night. After a few months of living there, I took to big garbage bags an packed up all my toys(save a few favorites that stayed at my DAd’s house) in them and told my mom to give them to kids who do not have toys and refused to recieve any new toys for Christmas. Shortly after that I moved out. I kept begging to go live with my dad to get away from that room. My mom moved out right after that. It was never discussed with my mom again until I brought it up at the dinner table when I was 10. I asked my mom to PLEASE tell me if she ever saw anything in that house. She confessed that she did but she did not want to encourage my fear. She also told me that the people who lived there right before us lost there son, 7 years old, to a drowning accident and my room was his. I always pictued him as a brown haired boy, even though I did not really understand much about ghosts back then. I feel that this child was very angry and frustrated. Maybe he wanted me to play with him or was upset that I was now in his room. Whatever it was, he was a bit violent and ghosts CAN physically hurt you. I had bruises and had to go to therapy for it later because I was traumatized by it even into my teens. I still am haunted by memories of it. I really hope that boy is at peace. The little house has been torn down and replaced by apartment buildings. I am writing this because I have a few questions. How can ghosts move objects? I was even lifted off my bed! Why did he stay there and not go on with his parents? Was he trapped? Is there anyway I can go back and talk to him? He seemed to only interact with me, not my mother. Was he afraid of her? Do you think he was angry with me? Why did he not try to make friends with me rather than scaring me all the time? I could never see him, only feel him hear him walking on the carpet and see things that he was
playing with move around. Why did he not speak to me? I am still so plagued by this entity in my own mind. I wish I had closure. Thank you so much for reading, I hope you have some answers for me.
Hi there Melissa,
Thanks for stopping by.
Some answers to your questions:
Yes, ghosts can move objects, though it’s usually quite rare. From what I’ve learned, they draw energy towards them and utilize it move the objects. Sometimes this energy is your fear, which is why some ghosts/entities intentionally frighten people.
It may not have been the little boy that was bothering you. Dark entities enjoy frightening people where child ghosts would not, they only want to play. If you felt a menacing presence alongside these events, I think it might have been a poltergeist.
If you truly believe it was the little boy, you can go back and help him move on, but only the ghost can decide to go home to the light. Sometimes they have work to do on this plane. Ghosts are no different than us, they have feelings, thoughts, etc., just no body.
They cannot speak to us directly as they have no vocal chords. Ghost hunters use tape recorders to capture voices on occasion as the ghost’s voice is emitted through higher frequencies, ones that humans cannot hear with their own ears.
It is very difficult and energy-consuming to appear in form for a human to see or interact with, that’s why he likely didn’t appear to you. But again, it may not have been a little boy. A poltergeist is a dark energy spirit that likes to torment humans for fun. If it was this being, you do not want to invite them in again by thinking about them.
Hopefully I’ve answered your questions,
Danielle
Thanks, Danielle! I spoke to a therapist today who helped me get to the core of everything else that was going on in the house in my life with my mother. He really felt that the spirit was the ghost boy trying to get my attention and entertain me to get my mind off of other things. That made a lot of sense. I do think that he really wanted to befriend me and play with me and was probably upset that I could not see him. That is why he was pushing the shovel onto my head. There was another entity in that house besides him, I am almost certain that was more menacing. Anyway, he told me that it would make me feel better to take a flower to his grave, so I am going to talk to my grandma about it and get the address, etc.
You were very helpful, thank you.
I was also wondering if you could explain a bit more about the energy being caught in a loop and not actually being an entity. How does that work?
Thanks!
-Melissa
I think what you’re referring to, Melissa, is called Residual Energy. It’s energy trapped in a loop, like a recording played over and over. It’s not a true ghost, it’s just a leftover signature of someone or something. Amazingly, residual energy can be from someone still living! Think of a church or cemetery, how they feel when you go into them. It’s the energy of people praying in a church, leaving positive feelings, whereas cemeteries can feel sad because of the living mourning their loved ones. Hope that helps!
I am so thankful for this post. It is really helpful. I have the spirit of a little boy in my house. Even my skeptical husband believes. I have heard “mom” both whispered at night AND loud when I am alone and my kids are either asleep or at school. I have had 2 early miscarriages. The first one would have been a month or two older than my 2nd child and the ghost boy I’ve seen and heard looks to be about 8 years old, which is older than my 2nd child. I do have 3 boys and we have a VERY happy- Norman Rockwellish family. I am not sure what to do, but I have acknowledged him and asked that he not show himself to my children or speak directly to them. Seeing him myself – twice- was freaky enough. When I speak to him, I ask that he not scare me. I say it in my mama voice. Patient, loving, yet firm. The activity calms down for a bit. But, then when it starts up again, it is more…obvious and this child really wants to contact me. Like he saying, “I’m still here..see? I’m here, still.” I am too scared to use a voice recorder, but I will try and have my husband with me to ask it questions. If I ask “Are you MY child?” Will he know? I can’t even begin to go through everything, but he seems to “watch” us sleep. But, there’s activity all times in the day or night. He seems intelligent enough to know to be quiet at night. He will actually whisper at night, but speak normally in the day. I am amazed at how cool this is, but scared all the same. And, I don’t know how to explain to my 7 and 1/2 year old all this stuff. He hears things and I’m afraid he’ll see things, too. He plays with my kids’ toys- even ones that are OFF- right in FRONT OF ME, like today. I feel his presence. I heard him “exhale” last night while doing laundry ALONE in my bedroom. I don’t feel threatened, but he can’t be happy here, can he? Our house is only 20 years old. There have been no deaths. I don’t remember anything when I first moved in, so I am not sure if this boy passed through our house and is staying b/c we are so much fun and happy? or .. what is the most likely scenario? Part of me wants to make contact and let him live here, if he wants. But the other part is scared that my kids will be afraid. Like if I say, “sure, stay through Christmas.” he’ll take that to mean he’s welcome and will definitely try to communicate with my kids. I..Just don’t know. Should I even be afraid if I am sensitive enough to “feel” that he comes in peace? I sensed it was a boy before I saw him, but is that my mind making sense and assigning a gender? Thank you so very much.
Hi Erika, sounds like he’s a friendly one, so there’s nothing to worry about. He might be a resident in the home or attached to your family and move from house to house with you. Question though: was your 7.5 year old supposed to be a twin? Or was there an issue during the first trimester of your pregnancy with him? I sense the ghost might have a close family connection. A twin of your son’s perhaps.
If the ghost doesn’t seem disturbed, by no means feel that you have to help him find peace. He will find it on his own. We learn lessons on the other side the same as we do here. Sometimes we just need time.
Thank you for replying to my comment. With my first son (1st pregnancy), I had really bad morning sickness (hyperemesis). I was on zofran and still lost 10 pounds the first trimester (I am not a big gal to begin with). The only sonogram I have had with him was at 20 weeks, so I am not sure about the twin thing. I hadn’t even considered that. My other pregnancies were NEVER like that one. I KNOW my other 2 were singletons because I had early sonograms with them. We haven’t done the recorder yet, but we will and get back to you. Thank you again for all of your help.
Hello. I have two older brothers and a single mother who we just recently found out had a miscarriage before any of us 3. I have always had a sense of something being there at times, but not always, nor often. My friends who have stayed at my houses (I have lived in 5 different houses) have told me that they have heard things or have thought there were ghosts in my house. In fact one said that it literally felt as if someone was whispering in his ear. I have not had this happen, but I have had eery feelings before and me and my brother have noticed our dog acting strange and then would start to hear noises and just an unusually feeling going on while our dog acted strange. He did not bark, but he laid in a corner, that he has never laid in, and just looked at us from a distance with a look of terror almost. And just three weeks ago I went to visit my friend at his university (he lived in an apartment), and I was CONVINCED that I heard and saw a ghost. Everyone had gone to bed and I thought I heard a knocking at the door and then footsteps coming towards me, and not afraid, simply curious as to who it was, I laid there waiting for someone to come, but no one did… Then after it had ended I was sure that I had saw a shadowy figure almost posting against the wall. I couldn’t tell details, but it looked like something had to be there. The next morning I told him and his roommates I was sure there was a ghost, cause I was positive, idk why I was so sure but i was. Following this I visited my friend again the next week and me him and a friend of his were playing video games with all the lights off except for two that were close by. These two lights turned on and off (individually, not sure if the light switch would turn both off at the same time but they were close enough for me to assume they would both go on and off at the same time) for a solid 2 hours. We joked and said what up ghost, how you doing. But I still had an eery feeling. In fact I tried to communicate the ghost with my mind (i’ve found that I have a powerful mind and sometimes can communicate with others who have powerful minds just with looks or strong thoughts). I asked the ghost (in my mind), “If you are a girl, please turn off both lights at the same time, if you are a boy please turn off one” I waited a few seconds and used my peripheral (sp?) vision instead of looking directly to allow the ghost to not be fearful of his/her answer, and I saw the lights flicker. I immediately yelled to my friend to ask him if he saw one or two lights go off and he was not sure. Although I feel that this ghost could be just the apartment or building because it is apparently known for these things, I was wondering if it is possible that my mother’s miscarried baby could be haunting either me, the houses we live in, or my entire family. I do not know much about ghosts or spirits, but I feel that it is possible that htis could be an outcome of the miscarriage. Any help would be really appreciated. I am not afraid of spirits, but I am intrigued. Maybe anxious, but not afraid.
Hi Zachary, thanks for writing.
Very interesting experiences going on with you. I would suggest asking your mother and brothers if they have any interesting experiences to report. If it’s a ghost from the miscarriage, it would certainly follow all the family members at certain times, especially your mom.
Another great experiment is to tape record a session where you ask questions and listen for responses on the recorder.
I’m happy that you are curious and not afraid, as there is nothing to fear.
Continue being open to the energy and the ghost will find ways to communicate with you.

lost my son 11 years ago and Ive never had any real contact with his spirit other than knowing hes watching over me, a few things have happened lately one being that my friend was contacted of a total stranger saying he was a spiritualist and that he had a message for my friend regarding Samuel my son who had passed.
Last year I moved in an apartment which I shared with my friend a weird things started happening like make up being moved around things being re orderdc first I thought it was my friendbecause she has OCD lol but realised she thought it was me lol I came home nad talked to what ever spirit was there and said I understand that this is your home and thankyou for letting me stay here. Things seem to die down then one night about about 3am I felt someone sat at the end of my bed ….which scared the cr… out of me after saying a few obsenities I pulled the coveres over my head and pretened that it hadnt happened. I moved out of the apartment two months ago and into another one where I was finally getting good nights sleep YEAHHH, but lately various things are happeing withe my friends and my family weird sightings smells of perfume I even woke up at my mums and there was the word Brdbury written on the boiler unit with three kisses I can assure you it wasnt there the night before!
Then this random man contacted my friend via a website saying that my son was trying to send me a message but that the message wasnt clear, the man new my name and what my son Samuel looked like, not to mention finding my friend on this website my friend he had never met.
I found out last night that the message was too let my son go, ! This really up set me as for the first time in my life I have found my inner bliss 1 I am the happiest ever so I wasnt aware that I was holding him back! Ive had said to my son that I love him but that I am ok and happy and that he needs to go to the light !! but now I am worried that he is still here in limbo which is something of course I dont want for my son. I dont even know how these things are happening my friend thinks its maybe since my 6 year old sister has come to us and that a portal has opened !? I want my son to be at peace where he is meant to be so is there anything that anyone can advise me to do, I am very aware that I dont want to medal with things that are not meant to be messed with but I want my son to be at rest please could someone advise me I really want things to be ok xx
Thankyou Clare xx
Hi Clare, very sorry about your son. While I agree it is good to let your son move on, be careful of people on the internet preying upon your grief. Never pay anyone or take too much of what they say to heart in case they are con artists.
I believe your son is in a good place, especially if he’s always in your heart.
Hugs,
Danielle
Hi can anyone help me with this.
Okay this morning I had a dream . I’m only 22 .
Someone was trying to open my door. So I waited till they opened it ready to attack becuase who would be trying to get in my room. Then when the door open it was an little kid. Then I reacted. What are you doing. Why are you trying to come in my room. Then he said I just wanted to play your game. So I said huh. Then I reached to get my phone to.take a picture. Then he said I’ve been in your room before. I said how. Then he said I’m a ghost. Then I woke up.
Does this mean anything. My aunt said its my self concious mind since one of my room mates is stealing peopls stuff
Hi Shardai,
I have to agree with your aunt about the subconscious mind. Ghosts cannot access your mind in that way, manipulating your dreams. So no worries, it’s nothing paranormal in my opinion.
Hugs,
Danielle
Hi and good morning.
My husband and I along with our daughter live on a military base, and so the house we currently live in probably has housed many, many people. Recently (more so in the past 6 months) we have noticed a little girl in our house. My first interaction with her was when I was sleeping and she came up to my face and said “I want carmel” I woke up with a jolt thinking it was my daughter who was 2 at the time, but it wasn’t. I told my husband about the expereince and he mentioned he too as seen her briefly from time to time, as well as a man who walks our halls between our daughter’s room and our. My mother too has seen the both of them as well while visiting. Both spirits we believe are not harmful, but very loving. We have never felt any harm from either of them.
The next time we heard of the little girl ghost was right after I suffered a misscarriage in November and my little girl was talking to someone in her room…I didn’t think anything of it since she is 3 and very smart for her age…but then she said “My friend says it’s okay mommy she’s sad too sorry about the baby.” I asked her if she saw her friend a lot, and she said “No mommy, she just left she’ll play with us later.” After that she hasn’t mentioned her friend, and we never explained to my daughter about my miscarriage. I went to the hospital while she was at her grandparents house and I tried not to show my emotion around her.
This past week we noticed our garage remote has gone missing among other little but necessary things what we place up on counter away from our child’s wandering hands–mostly stuff my husband is responsible for. We questioned my daughter and searched everywhere literally turning the house and cars upside down to find it. No luck.
My husband left on a training mission for a few days later and my husband came home yesterday. This morning at 0400 my husband yells and jumps on top on me in bed freaked out because the little girl walked into the room and kissed him. My husband said he watched her walk into the room and thought it was our daughter, but when he went to pick her up and put her in bed with us, the child vanished.
We want to help this child, but we are unsure as to why she is here and possibly taking our things. We are trying to get house records, but it’s a slow process being it is a military base, and public records are not too helpful as to the ones we find. Any suggestions? Thanks.
PS: Any ideas as to where a ghost child might hide our things?
Hi Deborah, sounds like an energetic little ghost. lol I know that everyone always wants to help the lost souls find their way home, but quite honestly, the ghosts seem to be in limbo by choice. You can speak aloud to her and remind her that she has a choice to go home, but she may feel she has a purpose in staying.
If she is taking your things, you’ll likely find them in the strangest place. I once heard of a ghost stealing a set of keys from the handyman working in the house and he later found them in an unopened garbage bag fresh from the box.
If she isn’t frightening you, just enjoy the paranormal ambiance.
There is a flat above my mums beauty salon just down the street and it used to be a childrens home. Recently my mum has been hearing small footsteps as if a child was running? But how do you actually approach it to talk to it? I mean…er it might think that your dangerous without hearing what you have to say? x
Hi there, the best thing to do is stand in the area you hear the activity and speak clearly to it. You can ask for a sign that they’re listening or just relay your message, chances are they are listening.
thank you!
Hello, this is Jon (23)
I recently moved to a countryside town in Japan. I have felt very little of anything of a spiritual nature around my home, but the cities and shrines are a different story I recently took a trip to my girlfriend’s parent’s house in Tokyo and seemed to have run into something.
When we were all walking back to their home after eating out, I randomly started to sense that something was following us. I have sensed stuff like this before in the US but the feeling I got from this was so much stronger. I never saw the entity with my own eyes but I knew exactly where it was and I could see an image in my head of what it looked like but it would come and go as we walked. The image I saw was of a very young Japanese child in a western style dress whose color I cant distinguish for some reason. Her hair was shoulder length but I could not see her face no matter how hard I focused on the image. There was a very melancholy aura about the feelings I was sensing from it and I felt a strong urge to get my girlfriend and her family away from the entity. But I also had a strong urge to interact with it but it was definitely a bad time at that moment. Everything I was sensing seemed to vanish into thin air as we reached their apartment and the strong pressure that was weighing on me went with it, but I felt so drained and could not focus clearly until I awoke the next morning.
I returned to my home yesterday, and while at work today I sensed that entity even more strongly (I still have the goosebumps as I type this). I still cannot see her but I know she was right behind my chair as I sat at my desk. I could feel her presence so strongly, but something odd happened this time. The moment I could sense her the strongest, my left eye tensed and I could see her image again more clearly but that was all I could see (everything else was blacked out) for at least a few seconds. After a while the presence vanished like before, and I feel so drained again, but also extremely curious as to why it would follow so far away from where I first met it.
I feel that I need to contact her if this continues, but this child obviously never learned English because of her age and my Japanese is not skilled enough to deal with something like this. This is also not the first spiritual presence I’ve felt in this country and many of the shinto shrines here give off a very tense feeling when I go to them and they keep me from staying at them for long. I never felt anything this in the US and I am not quite sure what needs to be done.
Hi Danielle
I wrote to you back on May 06, 2011 about my 90 year old Dad. Well Dad died July 07, of lung cancer which we knew he had but what we didn’t realize is that he had small cell carcinoma of his lungs. In his last 24 hours he was in hospice. The hospice doctor said to my daughter and I, I want you to realize how important it what I am going to say to you that you have to convey to the rest of Joe’s family. “This man is truly a remarkable man, he was diagnosed 3 yrs ago with small cell carcinoma, no one lives more than 6 mos when diagnosed with this cancer especially a man of his age” then he told us he was reading Dad’s chart and seen that my Mom has been sick in those 3 yrs and that she just passed in November, he believed that my Dad did not succomb to his disease because he wanted to make sure Mom was going to be ok, my Dad was 13 yrs older than my Mom and loved her so very much. So now my sister and I believe that Dad’s little friends were there to help him cross but he was too concerned over Mom to follow them home. We are eternally greatful for them, because we feel they kept an eye on him and kept him company when we couldn’t be there for him and we believe that they made his crossing as easy and painless as possible. On July 4th, which happens to be my Mom’s birthday, he was pretty much his usual self in the morning, as the day progressed he got what the hospice nurse called dillusional, my sister and i thought that his reaching his hands out and the far away look in his eyes where his friends calling, they admitted him from home into hospice and his last words were to my daughter when he became very restless in his bed after being sadated. She told him to relax grandpa and he told her he could not relax he had to go, he died 3 minutes into July 07 which happens to be my daughters birthday, I just wanted to give you that update, and for you to know what a remarkable man he was and to thank you for giving us some comfort and understanding in a very difficult time in our lives.
Sincerely,
Cindy Folga
Hi Cindy, thanks for writing. So sorry for your loss, but it’s good to know he went in peace.
ive had this ghost problem for the last two years. its a small child spirit, it follows only me and its a house hold of 6. only i can hear it, it calls out my name and the runs away. ive never had sleeping problems, but ive had to take sleeping pills just to get asleep. i went to a paranormal expert and all she told me is that i have a paranormal sence and that i am not to be scared. so when i hear the little foot steps going through the house, i ignore it, but when it come up to me when im half asleep, and calls my name into my ear, i just cant take it and i freak out. now the spirit is start to change, ive never been able to see it, but now when i turn the lights out, i wake up(not by the spirit, i dont even know why i wake up) and the child is standing next to my bed and reaching for me with one arm, and doesnt say anything. i freak out and hop staight out of bed and turn the light on, and its gone. it seems like the child is maybe 3-5 years old. is this bad that i can see it now, and what does it mean if it reaches out for me?
Hi Devin, sounds like she’s just lonely and realizes that you can hear her. Have you tried asking her out loud to stop? You can get a bit stern if you need to, tell her you don’t like what she’s doing, be specific, and tell her often. Tell her she doesn’t need to be here anymore, she needs to move on. There isn’t anything to be afraid of, ghosts cannot hurt you. Be careful, though, of any psychics or paranormal experts that charge you money for any advice or anything. Otherwise, the best thing to do is ignore her and eventually she’ll get bored and leave you alone. But first, you should do a recording session, where you set up a recorder and ask her questions, see if you can catch any phenomena on tape.

There’s a few things that have happened over the years, never posted about any of them until now. Some are of kids some were when I was a kid
My biological grandmother died when my mother was a child but when she was alive always wore the same perfume.
When I was born my family would stand well out of my sight and I’d be baby talking to thin air and the smell of my biological grandmothers perfume would be in the air.
As I got older I had the usual toys that most kids have, one being a remote control car, the batteries had died so my mother removed them to prevent them leaking. I was sat on the floor and the car started moving around me with no batteries in it (this was when I was about 3 and can’t remember the experience)
As I got older the odd thing would happen but nothing to write home about.
At 17 I had a dream that a friend of mine died in a car crash, I told my grandmother (she always listens to what I have to say) and we basically decided it was just a bad dream. 3 weeks later I was walking out of college with this friend who told me he was going out in a car that night with some friends, I had a sick feeling but thought nothing of it. 5 hourse later I found out he’d been killed in a car crash with 1 other
I then had a dream I had a car crash and again a few weeks later I did but I’m still here to tell the tale.
At my friends funerals I just had this weird feeling that something was in the church around the rafters but just put it down to being a church etc. I then went to a spiritualist, my friends family booked it and I went last minute totally off the cuff. The guy started talking about my friend and how he didn’t blame me 4 not warning him and that he was in the church at the day of his funeral and enjoyed it (as weird as that sounds). He also questioned as to why I was there and after trying to give several answers he said I didn’t need to be there as I could do it all myself if I opened up
After that I was getting in to bed 1 night and suddenly was aware of someone next to me, I think it was a man, not old, probably in his 20s but can’t be sure. He was solid but not see through. He was like a blue light, bright but not at the same time and it didn’t hurt my eyes. As it was sudden it scared the s**t out of me and as I jump turned and turned back he was gone.
I lived with my grandparents a short time after while our new house was being built. I always said there was an old woman still in their house and to this day she’s still there playing games. Certain rooms I can’t go in as they just freak me out. I had a gold chain which I took off for a few hourse one day and when I went to put it back on it was gone. We search everywhere but no sign. A few weeks later my grandfather asked me to get a coin out of a tin he’d given me full of old coins (60yr old plus coins) to show a younger cousin. I kept in locked inside my safe which only I know the combination for. I got the tin and tipped it out on a table to find one of these coins and at the bottom was my chain, I hadn’t put it there and no one else had the means to.
Shortly after this my step grandmother was diagnosed with cancer and 2 years later died. I didn’t go to the hospital the day she died as I’d already said goodbye. She was a proud woman and wouldn’t want me seeing her as she was compared to the woman I’d grown up to know and respect. I was sat on the sofa while my parents were at the hospital and at 15:57hrs had this weird feeling, it was like a relief or a release and strangely as upset as I’d been was suddenly happy. My parents got home a little while later and the exact same time I’d had this strange feeling was the same time my grandmother died
Anyway to jump 3 years not much untoward happend but I’ve met someone I like which is hopefully the start of something. We had a conversation about the usual and somehow got on to ghost/spirits etc. this new partner told me how they go home one night and saw the figure of 2 young girls in the corridor to their bedroom. They then chased my partner to the bedroom where they’ve banged the door and rattled it several times. All the family have seen them and there have been other goings on where even the dog seems to have been attacked for loss of a better description. In the same house people have seen a little boy walking around playing but he seems happy and never does anything other than smile at them. The land has been in the family for a number of generations and I recently done some digging for them and discovered that 2 girls of the same age range were murdered and their bodies found close to if not where the house now stands. I’m told that one of the girls holds her neck a lot and after some digging discovered one of the girls was strangled. during the building of this house on the land and more the extension there were several goings on which caused delays. The extension should have taken a month to complete but due to machinery break down and even boulders falling off the hillside and crashing through the extension it eventually took 6 months
I know this is very all over the place but I’m going to the new partners house for the first time tonight and wanted to know your thought on all this especially these children
Hey Mike, sounds like you’re very in tune with the other side. I don’t think there’s anything to be concerned about with the three children. They are likely just taking care of unfinished business and play the occasional trick on the living for something to do. You can offer them the choice to move on, but ultimately, they have as much right to occupy the house as anyone else. They will never harm anyone, just scare them, but boundaries must be drawn by the homeowners if they want peace from the spirits.
For interest’s sake, you could do the tape recorder test, a session where you sit in one of the most active rooms and ask the spirits questions, in hopes to receive a recorded answer on the tape. You may be able to find out more about their situation.
Irregardless, there’s nothing to fear.
Hope that helps,
Danielle
Hi Danielle,
It seems I have brought a little girl home from the hospital with me. At first I just felt the energy change in the house. Being Clairsentient I just knew it was a child and last week it just felt like she was always standing at the door way peering in to any room I was in but a little scared that i would be cranky she was there. She stands at the door at night and last week I was really sick in bed with my two little sons and her energy kept me up all night. I know she wanted to make sure we were ok, perhaps coming from the hospital she was worried.
Since then I have just felt her, mostly in the evenings, always at my bedroom door looking in.
This morning my eldest son came in to tell me that the Garage door was open and so was the internal garage door (which i locked myself before i went to bed), the tv also turned itself on and off this afternoon.
I took a few photos today and she appears in some of them. It’s all very real now and after reading your posts I’ve decided to try and record her tonight… I have already asked her to go to bed but she is still standing in my doorway now watching me type.
My question to you is would it be worth asking her to come with me back to the hospital? Or is she mine to deal with now? I am happy to get her to move on I would just like some guidance with her as I know she was ill.
Thanks in advance,
Tracey
Hi Tracey, sounds like she sees something in you that she needs. A mother figure. It might be worth it to nurture her for a while, allow her to feel like part of the family for a while. I feel then that she’ll move on on her own, or will need little coaxing to cross over. Just say hi when you sense her, sing a little when you feel she’s around, then when you feel her energy has changed, tell her about the light and that she can go home. I feel that she’s a very ‘new’ spirit. Young and unknowing of her situation. Set the boundaries though if you feel she’s overstepping your comfort zone. Tell her what’s acceptable and what’s not. If she’s scaring you or your sons, she needs to know that’s not okay. I don’t think she’s malicious, just unaware of her state.
Let me know how it goes, and I’d love to see the pictures of her if you like to share.
Hugs,
Danielle
Thanks for the quick reply Danielle! I ended up going to see a Medium friend today about the little girl too… Turns out it is my Nan and she’s here to teach me some lessons. My nan has been around me alot since passing 11 years ago and always comes through in readings so im not surprised its her but now I obviously have some things I need to take care of before she can move on. I hope I can give her some peace! She turned the iron on and the electric blankets today!
I also spoke to my mum and she was so comforted to hear all I could tell her and validated alot of it which was nice for me as a ‘Clair’. I will post a photo for you when I’m on my pc. She’s so pretty:)
Thanks again, T
Ok, my best friend has been seeing and hearing a little boy giggling and running around her dad’s house. Her and I got a bad feeling earlier tonight when riding with another friend out in the hills. She decided to tell us about this little boy. When I walked her to her door, I was looking through the kitchen window, and I saw a little boy walking. He resembled her little brother, but all i saw was his legs. her little brother is 5. He was in bed. All 3 of us are now horrified because we don’t know what to do. any assistance would be appreciated.
Hi Danielle (nice name!) There’s nothing to be concerned about, ghosts are nothing more than people without bodies. They cannot hurt you or possess you. They simply exist on this plane until they decide to move on. You can tell him out loud that he is dead and should move on, but ultimately it’s their decision. The best thing to do is to ignore him.
Hope that helps,
Danielle Lee
She says she has tried. I saw him for the first time last night, but was hearing him tonight. We were trying to ignore him, but it just doesn’t work. And he follows her to texas. Anywhere she is, he is. He messes with her, he curls up to her. She says she has tried yelling at him to go away, but he won’t.
It might be time to consider if this is a ghost or not. Poltergeists are the kind that follow people from place to place, ironically, the person’s energy being the source of the disturbance. Poltergeists thrive on fear and do their best to create it, because that’s what gives them power. Ignoring is the only way at this point if it’s truly a poltergeist. The person he follows must do more to remain calm, control her thoughts and actions, and above all, ignore the entity. Again, they can’t hurt you, but they can be seriously annoying.
Ever since I was little I’ve lived in the same house. We have no records of when the house was built or who the first owners were. The best guess we can make is the that there is a plaque on the original heating system the says 1906. My mom and I both have seen a little boy standing in our house. He wears blue and white shorts and he has blond hair. He doesn’t do anything but stand there and smile at me. After awhile he disappears and then I hear singing. It’s the most beautiful voice in the world. The song is always the same and I suspect that it’s in Latin. It a is always sing by a woman. As a child I always thought that the voice was the little boys mother. I’ve also seen a woman who looks about 20 years old standing in my bedroom when I’m upset or if I’m crying. I immediately feel comforted when I see her. I think that she is the one singing. Sometimes I hear someone walking around downstairs at night (I sleep upstairs), and I’ve watched my bedroom door open by itself and then close.
I think that my ghosts are a mother and son, but I don’t know why they haven’t passed over yet. My moms theory is that they are scared of passing over because they are scared of someone who has already passed away. I’ve done quite a bit of research and I know that a women who lived in my house went to the hospital and died of scarlet fever, but she didn’t die in the house.
Hi, my names haley, i’m only 15 years of age. Everywhere i go, i feel as if a little boy is there, a child. just tonight as i was walking home, right outside my backyard i saw him, i couldnt make out what he was wearing or what he looked like, i know he had very dark brown or black hair and he was about 4′ft tall. i felt a very sad emotion, i don’t know why. it felt almost like he had been abandoned by someone or something. i started to cry, i don’t know why. it kind of scared me because i have never actually seen this boy until tonight (or this morning, it was around 4:00 a.m.) i’m not to sure what to do, no one ever believes me when i say there’s a child that i feel, i feel him emotions. can someone PLEASE help me.
Hi Haley, sounds like you have someone that sees your light. The best thing to do is to talk to him, tell him you don’t feel comfortable with him following you and he should go to the light.
He may be a member of your family that passed. Ask around your family, see if your mom had a miscarriage or a little boy died in the family, even during pregnancy.
He’s no different than you or I, he just doesn’t have a body, so there’s nothing to fear. Talk to him just like he were a lost neighbor kid, nicely, but send him on his way home.
Hope that helps,
Danielle
Hello, my name is Denise. I have had a little girl (about 10 or so) follow me since I was about the same age. I’m 28 now. I’ve seen her several times over the years, and when i first saw her as a child, I used to make contact with her. I would ask her to knock on the wall or something if she was there, and I would hear a definite knock. She always seems to wear some kind of long, old-fashioned dress, but my sightings of her are quick. She does not appear for very long. I’ve never felt any type of malice from her, but she does like to occasionally hide things. I would often search for something, a book or toy, and then go back into my room and find it neatly laid out on my bed. Even now, I’ve had similar incidents with my hairbrush and my baby’s pacifier. I looked everywhere for that pacifier, even tore the car seat apart thinking it fell won in there. Once I finally gave up, I found it lying in the bottom of the car seat. She seems fond of my children. It sounds strange but when my oldest was a newborn, I would hear a young girl cooing to him when he got fussy and I was making a bottle or something. There have been times when I was upset and crying by myself and I would hear faint singing. I am not afraid of her, but she does have a tendency to startle me, and sometimes I think she upsets my 20 month old twins. Sometimes they stare into their room and yell at something. They can get pretty agitated, but I never see anything in there. There has also been a time or two where one just stares into their room and seems frightened. Again, I don’t think she means any harm. I just don’t know why she seems to follow me. The house I first encountered her in has been destroyed. I’ve moved several times since then and she always turns up. My husband has seen her, though I’m not sure he believed me at first. He jokingly said something about if there was a ghost here, it should make itself useful and wash the dishes. The funny thing is, the dishes in the drainer started rattling and continued to shift off and on the rest of the night. We even stayed with my mother-in-law for a few months several years ago and she was there as well. My father-in-law saw her in their house on more than one occasion. He even told me when we left to be sure I took my ghost with me. I will be upfront and say I am terrified at the idea of the EVP test. Not from her, exactly, but there are times when I feel something else here that is different than her. Darker. (I know that sounds crazy, but I don’t know any other way to explain it.) I’ve never seen that one, I just feel it now and then. I don’t believe it necessarily means harm either, but I don’t want to mess with that one. I don’t mind her staying, but I feel sorry that she is still here. It’s been years. The only reason I haven’t checked myself into some kind of psychiatric care is because other people have seen strange things happening too. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I apologize for the long post.
Hey Denise, thanks for writing, wonderful story! As I read, I got the sense that she was related to you somehow, check into your family tree and see if any of your relatives died around that age.
If you want her to leave you alone, you have to be diligent and firm, tell her at least once every day that she needs to move on or leave you and your family alone. Eventually she will go, but I’ll warn you, she’s been with you a long time, you may experience some grief once she’s gone.
Some people swear by cleansing their house with sage, never tried it myself, but heard it works great.
I hope this helps, please let me know how it goes!
Danielle
I’m a 21 year old girl and I think I may have a child ghost attached to me as sometimes my bed moves as though someone is kicking or pushing on the matress. it doesn’t move the bed frame just my matress. My boyfriend recently broke up with me because he will be away on work placement for university and wouldn’t have time for me and thats when all of this started. it stops however when I have leave a picture of him on my iPad and use it as light and or as a picture frame, if I use a picture of another man like John Cusak for example (I’m a big fan) it gets worse stronger. my parents thought it was just me twitching in my sleep but it happens when I’m awake as well and also when it’s dark. One of my friends thinks that it could be the unborn child I had to abort when I was 19 (I didn’t fall pregnant to my boyfriend but my ex whome I was dating back then and…hurt me) telling me that it’s chosen my boyfriend as it’s father and wants me to go back to him and be faithful to him, the things is that I have actually promised I will go back to him at the end of his work placement and ask for a second chance. I’m not entirly sure if it really is the child or not but I’m very concerned. please help
Hi Victoria, I’m inclined to think it’s probably you twitching as you fall asleep. If you have the equipment, I would try taping yourself while you sleep, this would probably make it clear whether or not it’s you or an entity.

You never need to worry about the other side harming the living, it’s only our own fear and misunderstanding that harms us most. Ask the spirit to move on or leave you and your family alone, eventually it will listen.
Danielle
Ok – this is new to me. About a week ago my 8 year old son (who we have always said was an old soul – he’s very sensitive, kind and spiritual) asked me to close the curtains in the living room (he and his sister were going to sleep downstairs) – that was strange to me b/c he never was concerned about the curtains being closed b4. When I asked him why – he said because of the little girl he sees in the window. Over the next few days I got more info from him. He said the first time the little girl (he says is around 4 years old) appeared was about 2 weeks prior (about 3 weeks ago) – it was the first night we had been home since our summer vacation (we were gone for 3 weeks). She was sitting on the coffee table staring at him when he woke up – he said he closed his eyes and turned away, and then she was gone – that night he came to our bed in the middle of the night – but said nothing about the girl. The next night he had a friend sleep over and again in the middle of the night he awoke to see the little girl (who he says has long hair and is wearing a dress) standing in front of the window. There were a few more “appearances” in his bedroom and the night he actually told me about seeing her, he said she was right outside the house looking in the window. He said “there she is” and pointed – but I didn’t hear him, but his sister (she’s 11) did and she was looking out the window and couldn’t see her at all. My son says he’s scared. I reassured him that she wouldn’t hurt him, that she may just be lonely and looking for a friend, that he has a special gift to “see” these spirits that we know are all around us. I asked why it scared him. He said b/c she is little, it’s dark out and she is by herself, also the fact that her dress is ripped and she is doing something with her hands (he can’t describe it any better b/c he doesn’t look long enough). Now the thing is, about 6 months ago a friend at the gym and I were talking about these types of things and about how we totally believe that some people have this ability. She told me a story about her mom making contact with a little girl about 10 years ago. The little girl had brown hair, was wearing a dress and was 4 years old. The story goes that this little girl and her father were killed in a fire and she is wandering around looking for her father. The kicker is that this happened on the street we currently live on about one block away. My friend said that this part of the street was affected. Of course I never thought anymore about this story b/c it was just an interesting chat to pass the time at the gym – I never told anyone about it b/c it just wasn’t important to me at the time. I must say when my son described this girl – her hair, the dress and her age – I got goosebumps. I completely believe that having this conversation at the gym 6 months ago was not a coincedence. Could it be possible that it is the same girl? Would she have not passed over if she maybe was the one that started the fire (accidently or not), and now I’m wondering if what my son is seeing regarding her hands doing something – maybe she has matches in her hands? Am I completely crazy here!! I know my son and I 110% believe him. What I’m concerned about is his fear. Monday night he had to sleep with us, but the past 3 nights he slept in his own room, so he isn’t completely terrified. I just want to ease his fears. What can I tell him to help him without possibly causing him to be more scared. I have NOT said anything about the story I have heard about the little girl as I feel that would be too scary to him. Sorry I’m rambling – but this is not something you encounter on a routine basis and I just want to help my son not be scared. Please any advice you can give would be greatly appreciated!!
Hi April, sounds like the little girl is lonely and just needs a friend. As with all hauntings, I recommend trying to speak with the entity via a tape recorder. Ghost voices can recorded in this fashion, then played back to hear them. From this, you may be able to decipher what she needs to cross over. Many times, ghosts are not ready to move on, so you can speak to her directly in the rooms you feel her the most, telling her that her presence scares the children and that she should keep her distance. It may take many tries. There’s nothing to fear whatsoever, only to understand and sympathize with. She’s simply a lost child, a lost soul. Encourage her to cross over, but don’t worry too much if she doesn’t. It takes time and a lot of energy on her part.
Let me know how things go,

I need some help, we have had some spirits in our house before and we are not scared of them. My mother-in-law comes over and blesses our house and they go away. We have not had any problems for at least 4 years. The other night my husband heard the hallway floor creak and he leaned over in bed and looked and said he saw a little boy (that looked just like our son) peek his head around my son’s bedroom door and go back inside really quick. He got out of bed and turned the light on in my son’s room and our son was sound asleep. Through out the night we heard a little boy saying “mom”. We got up every time it happened and our son was sound asleep. My mother-in-law came over and blessed our house today. She asked me if I thought it could of been the spirit of the baby that we lost before my son was born. This is really bothering me because that was 9 years ago. We did bury the baby in our back yard, it was only three months old. I guess I just need your opinion on this, it would be greatly appreciated.
Hi Micah, sorry for the loss of your baby, and yes, it could most definitely be him. Spirits that die young continue to age on the other side, he may be trying ‘grow up’ alongside your living son. You can look at him as though he’s more a guardian spirit than a haunting one. If he finds solace in being around your family, tell him that he’s welcome, but he should not scare you or your family by appearing, making noises, or moving things. Treat as you would if he were alive, kind and loving. Eventually he’ll move on, but right now, he needs you.
Hope that helps,
Danielle
I am 38 yrs old and have never believed in ghosts. Ive always said i will believe when i have my own experience….well tonight i did. Ive heard for yrs about a ghost who always swings only at night in a back yard at a fairly new neighborhood about 1-2 miles from my house. My sons friend lives in that neighborhood. His mom and I have talked many times about the swing. But tonight i actually went there. I could hear the swings scretching so i parked my car and walked untill i found the house it was. behind. The lights were off in the house, which my friend. says the lights are never on at night. I walked in the back.yard and could se the shadow of the swing going fast and high. i grabbed my cell phone which has a led flash light app and turned it. I shined it towards the swing. It kept going. I could see a boy about 12-14 yrs old wearing a short sleeve shirt,shorts(&its about 60 degrees outside) and his tennis shoes reflected my flash light. He never looked at me but i didnt see any flesh. I said hello? He just kept on swinging. I turned and walked away and at the drop of a hat the swing instantly stopped. Didnt slow down prior just completed stopped in its tracks! There is no way a human could stop a swi g going that fast and that high in an instant. I took off running to my car and drove so fast out of there. Than i drove back about 15 mins later and the swing was swinging. I called my friend and told her my story. She said no one asks questions or talks to the ppl in the house. We live in a small village. Not even enough ppl to be called a town. Its Mayberry. Seriously we all know everyone yet no one talks about or asks any questions? After reading these stories…maybe the boy ghost needs someone to help him. What should I do?
Hi Keisha, very cool story! Wish I could have been there!
Honestly, there’s two types of ghosts, sentient ones and residual. Sentient are ones like us, still feeling, thinking, and can be reasoned with. Residual, like the one you saw, are like a recording stuck in time, just a blip of energy that remains for several reasons. Some paranormal experts say it’s ley lines or limestone beneath the soil that can provide this type of energy for spirits.
So, all that being said, the boy you saw is likely not able to hear you or does not need to move on, eventually the energy will fade on its own, may take years and years though.
If you are concerned for him, just in case, you can go to the swings and tell him that he is dead and that he must move on.
Hope this helps,
Danielle
Hello, I need some help and guidance please. I have a 13 year old daughter who can see spirits. Anyhow at this moment I am dealing with a child ghost. But this time my daughter is extremely terrified. She describes the girl with long Black hair, about a year or two younger than her, a Blue sweater, and some dirty shorts, and she is bare footed. This has been going on for over a month now. She mentions that she mainly sees this child during the day time, and very vivid. The child runs around our apartment hiding constantly. Running from one room to the next. She crouches down, and constantly uses her hair to cover her face, never has shown her face to my daughter. She then giggles. My daughter said she first noticed her while she was going to the corner store. This spirit was walking in front of her ,walking as if she was hurt. She was also filthy and she said her feet looked muddy. She was also carrying her shoes, she didn’t see her face though. My daughter said, she looked so real, she thought at that time she was actually alive. Then about two days later. She notice she is now in the house. My daughter is very scared because she says she gets a very creepy feeling with this presence, and my daughter has usually endured a lot when it came to the super natural for her age. But this time, she says she does NOT want to communicate with it, she is scared of asking it to leave. She says when she is hiding she looks younger, but when she is running, she looks her age, which is confusing her. This spirit has been blowing in our ears as well, which makes the hair in the back of you’re neck stand. Do you know what it could be, or why it followed my daughter, or what I could do? Any advice would be greatly appreciated dear. Thank you so much for your time.
It’s very rare, if not impossible, for a spirit to have the energy to manifest so vividly and frequently. Not to be rude, but is it possible that your daughter is seeking attention?
If you’re convinced she’s truthful, the only way to get rid of the ghost child is to tell it to leave. Firmly and often. There’s nothing for your daughter to be afraid of, ghosts are nothing more than humans without bodies.
You can try having your home blessed but the best way is for your daughter to face her fears and tell the child to leave.
Danielle
Hello Danielle. Thank you so much for taking the time to respond to my question. I had basically told my daughter the same thing. That she has to tell this spirit to leave, and they are people with no bodies. As for seeking attention. That is something I don’t quite know, due to me and my daughter being very close. But you never know. I keep an open mind. I have had experiences through out my life. And still do. And I understand how rough it can be as a child, because my mother never wanted to hear about it when I was growing up. So, I try to be supportive with my daughter. As for me, I see things from time to time, but I can hear and feel them more around me than visually seeing them. I will take your advice. Thanks again danielle!
Hello, I’m having dreams about a young child and she says she want me to help her she told me how she past in my dream. I believe she’s more than a dream I’m convinced she’s in my house now and then ill hear giggling and I will also hear footsteps, laughter and I feel her presents I feel like when I see her in my dreams she’s coming to me for comfort I also think she may be coming to me for help I’m really confused wether I should try to help or do I just leave her be? Thankyou shin
Hi there, dreams are very often simply one’s consciousness working through problems. In my experience, a ghost cannot infiltrate a living person’s mind, even in sleep. Most often, children in our dreams depict the younger version of ourselves.
As with all ghosts, however, if you feel your home has one, speak to it, tell it to move on or to leave you in peace. Eventually they comply.
Danielle
I was glad to find your post, but even more relieved to see that you have recently responded and are sweet enough to take the time to help all of us! I too have a couple questions. I read most of these comments this morning, but have not had the time to read all yet. I found this through a search engine after the experience I had last night. My husband was married before me, and they had a son who passed away when he was around 5 months old. My husband lived in this house with his ex for a very short time before their marriage ended, but didn’t move in until almost a year after their son’s passing. Over the past few years I have had a few “experiences” that startled me, but didn’t terrify me. I have seen things out of the corner of my eye, objects fall for no reason, things go missing. Some of this could easily be explained away though. More notably I have also been touched twice. Once while I was at the computer late at night, I felt a small hand on my thigh, as if a small child were standing beside me trying to get my attention. This was almost 3 years ago. A few weeks ago, I felt something very cold grasp my hand right after I had gone to bed. I always hear small noises and thumps late at night. Right now, we are remodeling one of the bedrooms to turn it into a room for our children. Because of this I sleep in the living room with our kids (ages 3 and 2) until it is finished. I stay up late at night working, so the house is always quiet, and I can see my kids to know it wasn’t them. Last night, for the first time ever, I saw him. I can’t explain how I knew it was a male, but it was just sort of a feeling, if that makes sense. I only caught a glimpse of him for a second or two before he was gone. But he was standing beside my chair, just watching me. I got the impression he was only curious. He looked to be about the age my husband’s son would be if he were still here. My question is… do the spirits of children manifest to be the age they would be if they hadn’t passed? Can they “grow” as they would normally? The hand on my leg a few years ago was tiny, and this boy was a little older. I am curious to know if this is my husband’s son, and also wondering why only I have seen him. I wonder if he is curious about me and our family. I do not want to ask him to leave – I actually want to know more about him. I don’t have any equipment to record my voice other than my cell phone. Will this work? My husband has always been a little skeptical of the paranormal, and I know he has never been open to see or hear things for himself yet. I sparked his curiosity this morning with my story, and now we are both wondering how we can learn more, and if we can find out who this sweet child belongs to. Thank you in advance for your advice!
Hi Brooke, while it could be possible that this ghost child could be your husband’s child, for some reason I don’t feel that it is. I feel he would most likely stay nearest his own mother. But you never know, he might very well be his son. The best way to find out is to try to capture an EVP on your cell phone, ask him questions, try several times in rooms where you feel him most. See what he needs, maybe you can help him move on.
Have you had a miscarriage before? That is entirely possible as well that children linger after that kind of trauma.
Check into the history of the house or the area, he might have died around there and is hanging out.
As for your question, do children grow on the other side, the answer is yes, they can, but usually do not as ghosts. Once crossed over into the higher realms, they grow up until the age of 30. But if they are stuck here as ghosts, they usually stay the same age as when they died. Occasionally a ghost will tether its energies to another child, like a sibling or friend their age, and ‘grow up’ with them. Usually the living child will notice the ghost’s activity and/or have an ‘imaginary’ friend.
Please let me know how it goes, I would love to hear what happens if you try to contact him.
Hugs,
Danielle
What are your opinions of unborn children becoming spirits and hanging around the mother? My mom went to a medium recently and was told she has a spirit child living on her husbands dresser. She is a girl, age 5. This is the same age as my youngest sister. My mom had a very complicated pregnancy with my youngest sister and experienced incredibly heavy bleeding at week 11. My mom now believes she was meant to have twins and that is why this spirit girl is around. Apparently the medium said the girl’s name starts with a D. The medium also said the girl is only connected to my mother and does not want to go into the light because she needs to protect my mom. The medium said both my mom and the girl do not feel now is the right time for the girl to go into the light (only my mom can help her into the light, because she has no other relatives willing to help). It makes a lot os sense since my middle sister has always said she feels like someone has been watching her from on top of the dresser and things are often misplaced there or move around (the medium mentioned this is how the spirit girl communicates).
Thank you so much for your insight.
Hi Fiona, while I definitely feel unborn children can become spirits and hang around their parents for many years, I’m very hesitant about most mediums. Be careful how much stock (and money) you put into to what they say. There are very few true psychics out there, and the really decent, good ones don’t charge.

I would never have believe it had I not see it. A little girl, so happy, skipping down the hall way, I thought was my nabours kid stopping at my daughters room door which is glass. I was waving at her when her eyes went from one inch to two inches pure white with a black dot in the middle. She then turned and ran way waving her hands in the air….I dont think she was afraid really nor was I. I went down stairs and asked my wife why our nabours kid was over? she said no one was here…..I drop the subject. I know what I saw and I am more than thankful for this because I was truly a non believer. To me this just confirms eveything. Ps…I haven’t seen her since but the image, scenario is burnt in my memory forever. Should I or do I have to do something about this little girl? Or am I being selfish? I am so thankful for seeing this. To me this explains a million and one questions.
“Ghost Children The Spirit Guide” honestly makes myself contemplate
a somewhat extra. I personally enjoyed every
particular element of this blog post. Thanks a lot ,Dorthy
Discovered who the little girl is or was. Followed my daughter home from the house she once lived. I read a lot about this little girl in the past…she is older now. We didn’t know that the house we bought was next door to this house. She seems very happy, when I saw her, not scared…but is alway welcome here.;)
That is wonderful Brian, I’m happy to hear that. Sometimes the best thing to do is leave them be and it all works out.
Oh my.. J just found this after having my first experience EVER with a spirit. She’s a 9 year mentally disabled child and has been scaring the absolute crap out of me all week.. She heard me ask to play though (i was asking some friends but she didnt know that) and will not leave me alone now
There no need to be afraid, just tell her as often as you feel her that she’s not allowed to scare you. Fear is a powerful energy that a spirit can use to feel stronger, to feel alive again. Love and understanding will center her again, so you must feel those things for her.
Danielle
“Ghost Children The Spirit Guide” was in fact a terrific read and thus I really was indeed pretty content to read
it. Many thanks-Kristy
Hello my name is Kristi. I have always been sensitive to spirits/energies. I have had experiences in every place I have ever lived but only now that I am over 30 have I seen actual apparitions. Two separate ghosts have appeared to me. Recently I was in my sons bedroom reading to him. My son is 11. He had already fallen asleep and I looked up from the children’s book to see a boy who was very cute (also see through, lol) sitting indian style above my sons head on the bed with his chin in his hands. He was very intently listening to me read and staring straight at me. He looked small and younger than my son. When I saw him, I was startled though it was only because I didn’t expect him and he seemed startled too and vanished. My family has been having other experiences and I often feel “creeped out” as if someone is watching me. After I get “creeped out” I am left feeling very tired and want to sleep for quite a while. Since I have had so many experiences and have always been sensitive. Could I be attracting ghosts? Any thoughts as to why this child would now be seen?
Hi Kristi, sounds like the ghost boy is just looking for family time. I definitely find that I attract ghosts because I’m sensitive to them, I honestly think they sense the different vibrations that the living give off…and some of us are easier to sense than others. Keep an eye out for the boy, but don’t be afraid of him, he probably just misses his own parents and siblings. If he starts to bother you, ask him to leave over and over until you sense that he’s gone. Otherwise, just enjoy the coolness of the paranormal.
Hi my name is Ellen, I am a mother with 2kids, my eldest is 9 yrs old and my youngest is 1 yr old. When I lived before with my parents in our ancestral house with my eldest named Frances( she’s only 3 yrs old that time), we have this little girl ghost. At first, I ignore it. The ghost always hide some things especially things we use in school like ballpens, papers etc. Then every night my daughter is sleep walking. When I wake up I always find her playing with someone and she’s not aware of it. I can’t wake her up. The only way to wake her up is to open the lights. Then one day video chatting with my ex-bf while my daughter is sleeping, the ghost child copy my daughter’s image and my ex-bf saw her beside me! I was afraid at first but as time goes by I was used to it. When she hide something I talk to her to show it after she borrowed it. Then finally I heard her voice she called me “MOMMY….” while I was on my pc. I ignore it because I thought it was my daughter but when I lean to my cousin beside me he was on a white face like he was afraid. Then I saw my daughter sleeping on the couch. And I realized that the voice was just like whispering in my ear and my cousin heard it too! But now, I am not living in that house anymore because I am working. My daughter is still living with my parents in that house and everything is ok. My question is it possible that the ghost child followed me here? Because every night I felt cold even without aircon. And last night I felt something like a ghost waking me up and I felt she was afraid. I felt that ghost put her little finger in my nose just to wake me up and when I woke up I saw nothing. Then I slept again she wake me up again my whistle.
Hi Ellen, ghosts will rarely follow the living as they are attached to the place where their memories hold them. Even so, if she did follow you, continuously tell her to leave you alone. Gently inform her that she must move on to a better place, there are loved ones waiting for her there.
I hope that helps,
Danielle
Hi , I have a 2 month old son, he sleeps in his bassinet in our room, we have recently been using a video baby monitor , my son was sound asleep so I decided to turn it on as I wasn’t ready for bed . As I was walking down my hallway I looked into monitor and I couldn’t believe what I had seen!! I seen a boy aged 4ish inside my built in wardrobe which was opened slightly, he was sitting on a small chair or stool, hands on his lap , swaying his left leg side to side very fast while watching my son sleep!!! I turned on and off several times thinking maybe I’m seeing things, but he was still there!!
I ran to the room to check on my son, he was sound asleep and safe. I woke my partner to convince myself I wasn’t crazy and boy was still there doing the thing. He seen it too!
I was spooked because I could see this ghost/spirit soooo clear almost like a real life boy…
I now can’t bring myself to use the monitor again. I believe /hope he is watching over my son. Why is he here? Is it good or bad? Should I be worried for the safety of my baby??? Help !!!
Any thoughts or something I can do to ease my mind? .
Hi Venessa, very interesting phenomena! Was this captured on tape? If so, would you be willing to let me have a look?
The first thing to realize is that there are two types of ghosts. Sentient and residual. Sentient ghosts are aware of their surroundings and can be reasoned with. Residual ghosts are simply a recording in time, and cannot be reached by us. They don’t realize their dead and aren’t suffering or anything, so don’t worry. A sentient ghost, however, will respond to stimuli. You can talk to it, tell it to go away and let it know it frightens you and to move on.
There’s nothing that can be done to rid yourself of a residual ghost, they usually show up in the same locations and at specific times, but weaken over the years. A sentient ghost will try to communicate with you, move things, whisper, touch you, cause mischief, etc.
If you feel it’s a sentient ghost, there’s still no need to fear. They rarely cause harm and are usually just lonely or confused. Talk to him when you feel him around, tell him his loved ones are not in that home anymore and to move on.
Please keep in touch and let me know if you have any questions.
Danielle
I feel his still around as I hear noises , and see shadows corner of my eye.
My mom was taking the trash up to the dumpster up from the house and she called a little bit ago to let us know that she saw a little boy behind one of the dumpster and he was smiling and had the brightest eyes. She asked the other lady there did she see the boy and she said no. Mom thought for a few minutes and then searched around the area and even in the dumpsters and no one was there. she came home and was worried and called me. this is why I am writing to ask what does this mean because my mom has the ability to see things that no one else can and this was a first for her. please let me know so that I can get the message to her.
Thank You
Anglia (daughter)
Hi Anglia, it’s probably a bit early to decide whether or not your mom can see all ghosts, but seeing one can indicate a person’s open-mindedness for sure. Some people go their whole lives and never see one at all, so this may be a one time deal for her. But, she might have opened a spiritual door and will see them more often now.
Keep in touch,
Danielle
I actually visited the Nottingham Caves in the Broadmarsh Centre last week on a guided tour with a medium. Throughout the tour, cold gushes ran through my legs and my hands were cold and were ‘grasped’ throughout until I exited the caves (the part of the centre which wouldn’t have been build at the time of that child’s death). Though I dislike children and do not want any of my own, I got very attached to this ghost child who was holding my hand and even had a wave of maternal instinct. Could you explain this?
Hi ‘thedollinthevalley’,
Ghosts are beings of pure feelings, since they have no body to convey their emotional state. You and she bonded at a vibrational level, and she communicated both her fear of the place and her security being with you.
Danielle
When my husband and I moved into our house 6 years ago, nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary. Our apartment before had very negative energy, it was very angry, and it would let us know. So it was refreshing to come somewhere so calm. Then slowly I was feeling a presence again, but it felt different. Non threatning feeling and that was it. Fast forward a few years and my husband and I had our 1st son. I was feeling more. 2 years later we had another son. Then, I saw him. I believe its a boy. He watches me watch tv, I only see him for a second then he realizes and disappears. I think he’s between 5 and 8. I always just ignored him, carried on with our lives, until last night. Thats why I hopped on the internet and found this site. Lastnight, I put my boys to bed (now 4 and 2) and my husband and I went to lay down. I asked him if the alarm was set for the morning, and he set it. And our dog went to sleep at the foot of our bed that faces the hallway, as usual. In the middle of the night, my husband says “Go back to bed! Stop playing with your games!” He woke me up saying our son was in the room. But he wasn’t. The dog got up and moved away from hallway. And my husband then heard music from a music box, followed by a boy making a meowing noise. He did get up to check and our boys were fast asleep. And to top it off when we woke up, our alarm was shut off. I’m a little unnerved right now, a little scared, and completely in awe of this. I read most of the entries and your responses to them and I am going to try the EVP recording, and I’m going to try to talk to him when I feel him. I want to find history on my house, and in fact I have tried, but I have no luck. I dont know where to look next for that kind of information. All that aside, I am worried because when I go in the basement, there is another energy. I don’t think it is the same entity. Negative again. When we bought our house, there was a room in the basement that we kind of remodeled for my husband’s work room. He removed wainscoating to find fingernails scratched in the wood behind it. A lot of them. It had a sense of panic. I am afraid of that. Im kind of scared to contact it. When I feel that presence, all I want to do is run, instinctively run. So thankyou for all of your insight, but any advice for the negative entity? Thanks
Hi Corrina, sounds like a sentient spirit for sure. Keep energizing the home with positive energy, tell the home you love it several times a day. Try to get all your family members involved in positively charging the home. A family unit can suffer very quickly with a negatively charged home. If possible, try to have an electrician come to ensure everything is running optimally, high electromagnetic frequencies (high frequencies emitted from older wiring or some appliances, can cause paranoia and negative thoughts and feelings) in older homes can cause the same sensations you are experiencing in the basement as well as invite unwanted energies into the home. I know this from experience.
Please keep in touch and feel free to ask any questions,

Hi my name is Javier I just recently moved in to a diffrent home. Where my girlfriend and I live with 3 kids & 2 toddlers. I work nights so I’m never really home at night, but my girlfriend says she hears a little girl giggling. Someone keeps letting the cat out of its room.. I have tried to confront the ghost sayg things like leave my family alone, one of my friends lived there 7 years ago &id says a little girl haunts the house, I haven’t seen her my self but really want this spirit out of my house my 9year old daughter says she sees her and is terrified to even go to the bath room with the door closed, I need some answers to help my family. What can I dew to help my family be in peace..
Hi Javier, first it sounds like you might need to do a bit of debunking, meaning scope out all the things that are happening and see if there’s a logical explanation. My cats are quite proficient at getting themselves out of a room if the door is the least bit out of alignment, try wedging a sock or something in the crack to make it harder to open. When your girlfriend hears giggling, be sure that none of the kids are awake or toying with her.
Once you’re satisfied it’s none of those things, you can move forward with proving it’s a ghost. Try tape recording yourself asking questions while all alone in the house. Try to ensure that there can be no outside noises to ruin the experiment. Ask the ghost questions and then listen on the tape for any anomalous noises that can’t be explained. Within reason, of course.
If it’s established that a ghost is for sure there, take steps to cleanse the home with either sage or a blessing. Continually inform the ghost that they must leave, but do not be afraid. Fear is tool a ghost may use to feel stronger. They cannot hurt you, but they can be annoying.
Let me know how it goes,
Danielle
just a thought I have bought some quartz crystals which has helped tremendously with negative energies (I put four little ones in the corners of my grandsons bedroom and a big one on my headboard) (also you must place them in a window for 24 to 48 hours to reach their full power, I’ve had no bad nightmares since then) and I’ve also put up some blessed rosary’s, but the crystals were a big help with my sleep….however, my grandson still talks all night long to ????? but they are not being mean to him
I personally Think that blog post, “Ghost Children | The
Spirit Guide” Window Covers was fantastic!
Icannot agree with u even more! At last looks like
Idiscovered a website truly worth looking through.
Thank you, Alfie
I have the spirit of a little girl in my house, the first and only spirit I’ve ever seen. My husbanf has been empathic since he was very little so he’s used to it. We bought a used desk for my 4 year old stepson, and shortly after,my dog atarted spending every night barking at the closet beside it until he passed. Then toys would start going off all hours of the night and I’d hear little footsteps down my hallway when my atepkids were at their mother’s house. I’ve had a few different people see her and describe her the same way I saw her. My husband says I shouldn’t acknkwledge her, but sometimes when I can’t sleep because I hear her in the hallway I ask her to pleaase stop because it’s not time to play. She always listens, and I tried to tell my husband she just wants attention like anyother kid. He just told me the other day that now he hears my stepson talking to her in themiddle of the night. Should I be concerned or just keep handling it like I have been?
Hi Kari, I like your approach so far. Acknowledging her is what she wants and will soothe her. If she becomes too much, simply tell her to leave you alone or not to scare you. Eventually she will move on and it definitely helps her to have your kind energy to enable her to cross over.
Danielle
Hey Danielle, thanks for your response!
So after a lot of discussion my husband and I decided to get an ouija board (usually frowned upon, I know, but we took every precaution we could think of, especially since my husband has used them numerous times before). We actually had some communication with her and found out a little bit more. We had finally come to the decision because our stepson woke up shrieking in the middle of the night saying someone was poking him and when I asked him if it was his sister (she was sound asleep), he said it was someone else and started crying. I told her if she couldn’t be nice and leave my stepson alone while he slept we’d send her desk away, and my husband said later that night he thought he saw her huddled up in the corner (where our kids sit when being punished).
It was an incredible experience to say the least! And our house has been more peaceful since then (:
We have a small child spirit in our house. I’ve seen her a few times, she runs through the kitchen usually with a cat following her. She is small, around 3 or 4 with curly blonde hair. At night I will hear mommy thinking its my daughter but find her sound asleep. Yesterday the little girl grabbed my boyfriends fingers like she was holding his hand. This is the first time she’s done that
we just don’t want to scare her
hello, My story takes place over a few years, So i will try to get to the short of the long of it. Over 10 years ago my mother had recently moved into a 200 year old house. When I went to tour her house for the first time, as i looked up the stairs I saw a child, yet other than mine, there was no other children there, and he was in the main room watching cartoon. I saw dark denim jeans with very large folded cuffs, and a hand on the stair rail, and a red thermal shirt. Instinctively I ran away, because I was too afraid to look up, and see his face. When I brought it up to my mother she told me a small boy was spiritually living there, he would turn on the dishwasher, the tv, pull all the chairs out from the table and open and close doors. All in all he was very peaceful, but playful.
I had taken some toys over there and little by little they were disappearing. Later my mother moved out, and my son started playing with “Jackson” at our home. he would say things “he was just here, where did he go mommy.” At night the swing set in our yard would have just one swing moving. I would walk by his room and see a boy sitting at the food of his bed watching cartoons, and turn back to tell him to lay back down. only to find my son completely asleep.
Once when i had company Jackson was hiding behind a long drapping curtain, the bodily form was freaking my guest out so i pinned the curtain down, only to have the form reappear and the curtain pull itself out of the pin.
Later on we had built a new house, and had another son. and i assumed Jackson stayed in the old house. During the passing years my mother had passed and new owners whom had no children what so ever had moved into her house. Being from a very small town everyone knows every detail of each others business. The new owners of the 200 yr old had come home one night to find the same toys that had gone missing many years before.
ALso, he is still with my family, Nearly every visitor has seen him from time to time, more in reflections than actual first person. The off television will show a small boy next to them, or as you pass a mirror, he will be there. My oldest son says he hangs out in his room, and the other night my middle child said he awoke to see a boy sitting in his desk chair.
All of this is something we are accustomed to, (except my husband who has never seen, because he refuses to see, but does not deny that we see him) The problem is Last night my 15 yr old sons Girlfriend was awakend by a little boy messing up her room, dumping her drawers, and turning on the light as he left the room. She thought it was her brother because she followed his running sound back to his room, where she heard him playing. when she went in, her brother was not there. he had been asleep in another room all night.
So??? is it possible Jackson is jealous of my sons new friend, and just staying to play with her little brother? or would this be a different boy?
Hi Jennifer, very cool story! I think that it’s the same little boy ghost and he’s simply curious about your son’s new friend. Like a new toy, he’s simply playing with her and seeing how she reacts. In time, he’ll move on to other things, but if you want him to stop, just ask him not to scare her or make a mess of her things.

Hi Danielle,
I have many spirit children in my home, at first I thought it was my special needs grandson that was being haunted, now I believe it’s me they are attached too also….since I’ve realized what’s going on in my house and have told them no being mean those things like the red marks on my grandson throwing a picture frame off a dresser that stuff has stopped, however, when I tried to talk to them I only hear breathing in the recorder and I have some pics of babies and small children they are attempting to be cooperative with evidence I just don’t believe they are strong enough sometimes..needless to say, I don’t know how to help them move on and I don’t know the history if mom and dad are deceased or where they came from or anything…this house is 100 years old and I tried researching but had no luck…any suggestions?
Thanks Angie
Hi Angie, some of the children may not be ready to move on. I think the best thing you can do in a situation like that is ignore them as long as their good and give them a firm talking to if they are bad. Many ghosts are perfectly happy staying in this realm until they feel the need to move on.
My 13 year old daughter came to me recently and told me that a young girl and an older woman have made contact with her. She describes the older woman as nice and helpful, but the young girl shows up at places other than at home (school, art class). My daughter thinks that something bad may have happened to the little girl, as the girl shows her “snippets” of things…my daughter describes these as little movies. My daughter is very detailed about these spirits. She says the do not scare her, but it makes her anxious as she never knows when or where they (particularly the little girl) will show up. The little girl frequently tries to wake her up at night. I don’t know what to do for my daughter. My daughter is very bright and mature for her age. She is a straight A student, is artistically gifted and somewhat serious. It would be so out of character for her to be making this up and I truly believe she is experiencing what she says she is. I don’t know if this child spirit is stuck, needs help or is just drawn to my daughter. I want my child to be dealing with normal 13 year old issues rather than worrying about this spirit that has seemed to attached itself to her. any suggestions.
Hi Katherine, just make sure to let your daughter know a few crucial points:
She’s not alone. There are many of us that sense spirits.
They cannot hurt her or possess her.
There are dark spirits, yes, but they feed on fear, so as long as she understands she shouldn’t fear them, they won’t bother her.
Spirits MUST leave the living alone if told so. She must set limits with the spirits, tell them if or when they can contact her.
Keep the lines of communication open with your daughter. If ever you need to ask a question, please don’t hesitate to contact me. My email is dlee0614@yahoo.ca. I grew up with the same kind of experiences and know that the most important thing is to feel validated and, hence, not crazy.
Hugs,
Danielle
I feel that is one of the most important information for me.
And i’m glad studying your article. But want to remark on some basic issues, The website taste is great, the articles is really great : D. Good job, cheers
Hi Danielle, my name is Corrina, I wrote on your blog back in Feburary about the ghost boy and the negative energy in my basement. The good news is I took your advice and got my family involved to show love to the house and to say it and it really worked! I don’t feel the negativity and panic anymore. Sometimes while doing laundry I can “feel” something watching me, but nothing like it was. Sadly about 2 weeks after I contacted you, we had to put our beloved dog down due to cancer. It was such a tough time for us. But I know he came home with us because our curtains would move where he used to lay (and there are no air vents by the curtains). It was very comforting and I talk to him, I still do. After he passed, all activity seemed to stop in our house, besides his signs. Our ghost boy seemed to be MIA. He wasn’t watching me anymore. But as weeks went on he started coming around again slowly. Since I was used to him, it was nice to see him again. And then this morning I was recording my goofy lil 2 yr old dancing and I Watched the video and I seen orbs floating!! It was so shocking and cool at the same time! Could they be my ghost boy, or my puppy, or something else all together?
Hi Corrina, nice to hear from you again. Very sorry to hear about your loss.
Orbs are a tricky item, most of the time they are light reflecting off dust floating in the air…unless they appear to have their own light source in the center. I would suggest taping again in the same location, same time of day and if you see orbs again, it’s probably dust. But try different locations at night when there’s minimal light. If you catch something then, there’s a chance it’s paranormal.
Would love to see and post pics if you feel like sharing though!
