Wow...This was a tough question! And I lived in Red Lion, PA!\n\nREHMEYER HOLLOW is the correct answer! Your referring to the, Hex Child Murder Case. There's a book out called Hex by Aurthor H Lewis from what I understand.\n\nHere's a clip I found on the web!\n\nhttp://www.suite101.com/print_article.cfm/paranormal_realm/117245

My aunt once lived in an old house that was haunted. One day, when she was alone with one of her children, she heard chains being dragged in the upstairs attic. Also, there was a window in the upstairs attic that faced the street. A chair was positioned against the window, and my aunt says that when you were outside, you could sense that there was some unseen person sitting in the chair watching you. One day, my aunt managed to go upstairs. She found a box or chest with some old letters. If I remember correctly, the letters were written by a woman who broke up with her husband and somehow ended up being separated from her children. My aunt believes that it was the woman's ghost who haunted the attic.

I have seen and heard quite a bit.  I investigate the paranormal and also live in a house with some activity.  \n\nI have quite a bit of EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomenon) recorded.  Just two nights ago, I recorded someone saying, "Go back", "Interesting" and "Can you hear that?".  The recording also includes kids laughing, moans and someone blowing gently into the mic.\n\nI once saw a drop of water fall from the bathroom ceiling into a bowl in the tub.  I even heard it land and saw ripples.  There was no sign of water on the ceiling and the bowl was nowhere near the faucet.\n\nI saw my daughter standing across my bedroom staring at me.  I looked away and looked back.  She was still there.  I did that again and she was gone.  It wasn't my daughter because she is very afraid of the upstairs.  She senses a presence that doesn't want her up there.  Besides, I would have heard her go up and down the sqeaky stairs.\n\nShe has seen a bearded man in army fatiques standing near her in the living room.  Also, in her bedroom, was a little girl in a white dress messing with the blinds.\n\nMy 2 yr old son was in my bedroom and told me he saw a "ghost dog".  He ran and hid under my covers.  He wouldn't come out for quite some time and wouldn't let me talk about the dog.

Yes, there is a house in amityville. The movie(s) sensationalize it a bit but the people(s) who have lived there swear, as does the priest, about unexplained happenings. They took a large loss when they moved from the house. \n\nThere are people who live there now who claim to have heard and seen nothing.

GHOSTS? Yes. In the summer of 1977 a ghost took up residency in my electric fan. It was very entertaining. Had a penchant for ABBA tunes and sang to me in a weird electric voice. It lasted for just a few months then disappeared. I still miss the ghost.  \nWITCHES? Yes. I went to elementary school with a girl whose father was a Warlock. Nice guy but those big bushy eyebrows made him look scary.  \nKELPIE? Yes. When I was very young I saw a "pony" swimming in a bayou in Baywood, Louisiana. I ran home and told my Grandad about the swimming pony. Grandad asked me what color it' eyes were. Red I told him. Grandad became excited and told me it wasn't a pony at all. He called it a Kelpie. He said a Kelpie was a water "imp" that took the guise of a horse to entice innocent folk into the water with it. Once the victim entered the water the Kelpie would return to it's true demonic form and drown the happless swimmer.  Grandad forbade me to return to the bayou ever again and I never did.\nBLOODY MARY? Yes. I remember some years back I was dining at a truck-stop. A drunken trucker was dared into saying "Bloody Mary's" name three times. He did. After the 3rd time he excused himself to use the bathroom. He never returned. The cook went into the bathroom to see if he was ok. The bathroom was empty and quiet except for a broken mirror over the sink. No trace of the trucker at all. I heard his Semi stayed parked at the truck stop for 4 days before it was towed.\nVAMPIRES? Yes. I saw one years ago as a spectator at a carnival. He was a pale, bald, bony man dressed in black & gray. He was wiping his mouth of what looked like ketchup. He caught me watching him. I felt uncomfortable and turned to walk away. As I did I faced a Fun-House mirror. There was no reflection of the strange man. He was right behind me! Surely there would be a reflection! There wasn't. That's when I realized he was a vampire. I ran through the mid-way until I caught up with my friends. I never told them about the vampire because I knew they would never believe me. \nJACK the RIPPER? Yes. There is documented proof Jack the Ripper existed. The question is who do you believe he was? Some Historians say he was a respected Surgeon others believe he was a prominent member of High Society while others claim he was a member of Brittain's Royal Family. Me? I'd have to go with the Surgeon theory because of the proffessionalism of the knife wounds. Experts claim the wounds were very precise and were administered with expertise. \nCANDYMAN? Yes. The legend of the Candyman is just a variation of the "Bloody Mary" legend. They are one and the same theory but the Bloody Mary legend is much older than the Candyman .  \nBLACK CAT THAT CROSSES YOUR PATH? Absolutely. A black cat has no supernatural powers ......unless it is a "Familiar" sent by a witch to cast a spell. A familiar is an animal (cat, owl, rodent, wolf, etc.) charmed by a witch or other sorcerror to cut-off or "cross" an intended victims path. By doing so the essence of the spell or curse will possess the victim. Folk-lore has it....since the animals were small or at least not very large they were only capable of containing mild spells like clumsiness or "bad luck". Fortunately A cursed black cat is the only supernatural element I have not encountered in my strange and very eventful life (aside from Jack the Ripper that is!)...So far!

Try this:  Based on the number of souls that have died over the centuries, ghosts, if they existed, shouldn't be hard to find at all.  Point out that on the Travel channel's "Most Haunted" series where a crew goes to a new 'most haunted' place every week they never have captured a ghost on video!  Nor has the Sci-Fi channel's "Ghost Hunters" series.  You may want to point out that if ghosts exist that it would be logical for them to appear on security cameras and surveilence cameras all the time...but this seems to never happen.  Sylvia Browne appears weekly on the Montel Williams show and tells people on the show that she sees their deceased loved ones "standing right beside them".  But the cameras never catch anything, nor do the microphones.  I heard a skeptic put it this way, and it's the most plausible explanation I've ever heard: "There are no haunted places, just haunted people."  Good luck with your debate.

As an amateur ghosthunter, I can tell you that ghosts are real.  I have photographic evidence, and am working on sound recordings.  I think a lot of it has to do with a person's 'sensitivity' to such phenomena.\n\nGo here to see some excellent photos; I have a few in there under "submitted photos".\n\nhttp://www.kentuckyshadowchasers.com/photogallery/index.html\n\nThere are some good EVP's here:\n\nhttp://www.kentuckyshadowchasers.com/gate.html?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=1\n\nAlso, look for any investigation of the Villisca Axe Murder house in Iowa.  It is extremely active.\n\nDon't get me wrong, I try to rule out any possible mundane explanation in photos and such before I start looking at paranormal angles.  But it does exist.

Do Ghosts really exist??\n\n\n\nNo one actually knows if ghosts really exist. The only evidence we have are photos and claimed sightings. Most of the photos are of poor quality or are not convincing enough. The sightings may be true but there is no evidence to say so. People have there own ideas of what ghosts look like, from human shaped figures to small objects. Even though there is so much material to say ghosts exist there is still no actual evidence. Until there is some scientific evidence to prove that ghosts actually exist, the legend about ghosts will stay a mystery.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n@ w w w . c a s t l e o f s p i r i t s . c o m\n\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nTHE GHOST OF HAMPTON COURT?\n\n\n\n\n\nArticle from DAILY MAIL - UK\n\nBy David Harding, Metro\n19 December 2003\n\nTo the sceptic it may simply look like a fuzzy CCTV image of someone in a long coat walking through a doorway.\nExperts say the long-coated figure could be the best proof yet found that things really do go bump in the night... and the day too.\nThe mystery surfaced two months ago at the 16th-century palace, once home to King Henry VIII.\nSecurity staff heard alarms ringing near an exhibition hall, indicating fire doors had been opened. But on investigation they found the doors closed.\nPerplexed, they examined CCTV footage, and that is when it got spooky.\nThe cameras showed the heavy doors popping open but no one there. Then, suddenly, the long- coated figure appeared and slammed the doors shut.\nThe guards were told the same thing happened at the same time - about 1pm - the day before.\nTo add to the mystery, the doors also flew open at the same time the very next day. But the ghostly figure has been spotted only once.\nThe suspected spook has not just been sighted by CCTV. Australian tourists also claim to have seen a ghost near the exhibition area. The palace, in West London, has ruled out its guides as suspects because they do not enter that part of the building.\nPsychologist Dr Richard Wiseman said the spectre, nicknamed Skeletor, might prove to be a significant discovery.\n'It could be the best ghost sighting ever,' he said. 'I haven't seen anything that would match that at all.'\n\nHENRY AND A HISTORY OF HAUNTING\n\nThis is London\n\n19 December 2003\n\n• CATHERINE HOWARD\n\nThe best known haunting at Hampton Court is by Catherine Howard, Henry VIII's fifth wife.\n\nCharged with adultery in 1541 and placed under house arrest, she broke free from her guards and ran to her husband to plead for her life. The guards dragged her back and she was executed. To this day, it is claimed, a woman in white can be seen floating down the Haunted Gallery.\n\n• JANE SEYMOUR\n\nHenry VIII's third wife, who died in childbirth in 1537, is said to walk through the cobbled courtyard carrying a lighted taper.\n\n• LADY IN GREY\n\nSibell Penn was nurse to Prince Edward, Henry's only son. She died in 1562 and was buried in Hampton Church. When the church was pulled down in 1829 her remains were disturbed and it is said she returned to the rooms she once lived in.\n\n• THE WOLSEY CLOSET\n\nThe room has a 'strange atmosphere'. A phantom dog has been seen and heard here on more than one occasion. \n\nCNN NEWS REPORT\n\nPalace 'ghost' caught on camera Friday, December 19, 2003 Posted: 1:54 PM EST (1854 GMT)\n\nLONDON, England (AP) -- Are there ghostly goings-on at Henry VIII's palace, or is that hazy image of a fellow in fancy robes just a bit of Christmas cheer?\n\nClosed-circuit security cameras at Hampton Court Palace, the huge Tudor castle outside London, seem to have snagged an ethereal visitor. Could it be a ghost?\n\n"We're baffled too -- it's not a joke, we haven't manufactured it," said Vikki Wood, a Hampton Court spokeswoman, when asked if the photo the palace released was a Christmas hoax.

I like horror stories, so here are some...\n\n***\n\nAbout six or seven years ago, my family lived along Teays Valley Rd. before the big "industrial boom" of Putnam County. Seems like it went from a farming community to a city right before my eyes. Well anyway, We rented land off of a fellow by the name of Jim Umberger. On this land was an extravagant pre-civil war almost Victorian house. It was simply beautiful. Off to the side of this massive antique sat our trailer. Now I was awful young through all of this and kids will have thier fabled ghost stories, but there was something quite odd about this house. Something was down right sour. \n\nThe story had it (and I know nothing of the truth in this) a family was brutally butchered in the house. Back then, there wasa whole lot of nothing for miles around, so no one even found these folks for a good long time. As a youngster, I had the "creeps" about anything just about, but I've never been quite as frightened of a place as I was here. The place had an eerie air to it. To make things even more insane, my stepgrandmother, Evelyn, died of brain cancer there (in our trailer, of course). My other Grandmothers' entire cancer eaten body siezed up and shut down on her, yet she died oficially in a hospital. Strange things went on at this trailer. Pockets of not cool, but cold air in the middle of July, for example. Once in the winter my mother was out on the town. My younger brother and I were watching some TV when there was a knock on the door. There, on the freshly fallen snow, was nothing. No footprints, no tire tracks, nothing. Needless to say I spent the rest of that night with my head buried under the covers. Speaking of doors, once I heard the doorbell ring, seemed innocent enough, but WE DIDN'T HAVE A DOORBELL!! Pictures falling off the wall, creaky floors and long sleepless nights were only minor nuisences we had to deal with everyday. The most disturbing incidences, however, and the most annoying were when the smoke detectors, located in various parts of the trailer, would take turns going off one at a time. \n\nAfter that, they'd go off simultaneously, quite a ruckus. For a long time, I thought I was the only one who felt a presence, then one night, my mother went completely irate screaming "Show yourself, Evelyn! I'm tired of these f*ck*ng games! Show yourself!" We never saw anything. Things continued as they were until we moved. Mr. Umberger sold the land to someone and it became South Brooke, a ritzy subdivision with $500,000+ houses that wouldn't hear of our humble trailer depriciating thier property. However, I believe they'll get theirs, Although they tore the house down for the project, there was a well and a system of underground streams and springs which probably rendered the whole operation illegal. The thing about the springs and wells may not sound important, but in my own personal research I have found negative forces and spirits can channeol themselves through waterways. I'd like to see how South Brooke likes it's neighbors! \n\nI believe I have some pictures of that house somewhere in the mess that is my apartment.\n\n***\n\nThe story I would like to tell is about an apartment building in Spokane, WA. This building is only about seven years old, if y'all are anything like me you expect a haunted house to be all scary and falling down, not clean with nice landscaping. It really started the day after we moved in, my hubby came in from the deck (I am a cigarette nazi - no smoking in ze house!) scared as heck. I have never seen my ex-marine hubby look so scared. He absolutely would not talk about it! hmmmm. \n\nNot two days later my little year and some odd daughter was supposed to be asleep for the night but instead was talking to someone. Of corse, no one was there when I checked, but I swore I could hear an old lady talking to her. I figured it was my dead grandma, she comes to visit now and t

Yes. I was very young in Williamsburg VA.  I was running with my brohter and we were shooting these little cannons and pistols.  I got sepereated from my brother, i was the other way, but could see him, we were still chasing each other around, and i started running towrds the wooded areas beside him, straight ahead, as plain as day, i still remember the shadowy figure of a solidier clad in Redcoat uniform.  Then it was gone.  My parents had taken us to Colonial Williamsburg, and all through the batllefields, we played and i saw the GHOST!!!!  The poor soul had no facew that i could see, no i think that he just wanted to go home, and he did not want to die in a battle.  SWEET!!!Memory!!!, i dont care who believes or not.

WOW! What are the chances I would randomly find someone here talking about Berlin, NH, of all places in the world!!! I live in NH and have lived in Berlin before. They are from the paper mill, which is now being shut down! And soon those pipes won't be there anymore! A lot of people lost their jobs, but at least the town won't smell so HORRIBLE anymore, which is what the town was known for. There is also a smaller paper mill you will notice as you are leaving Berlin. That one is more in Gorham and is still running, but strangely doesn't smell really :). This should definitely be your answer haha!

Never been there, but that was a very interesting website.  Glad you shared it with us.\n\nI am watching a show about the Waverly Hills Sanitorium in Kentucky I believe.  It's a lot like this.  It was built for TB patients.  Supposedly, over 63,000 people died there and it is extremely haunted.  It's on SciFi.  Don't know when it'll be on again, but it's really creepy.   Check it out if you get a chance.
