 2009 Ghost Stories

 

In recent weeks it has come to my attention that certain parties are using my ghost stories and those of my contributors as references for their own commercial enterprises.  If you or someone you know is writing a book on ghosts in the Pacific Northwest, PLEASE DO NOT!!! copy or use the following stories or any other materials within this website as references.

Hello,

 Please excuse the form letter.  I wanted to bring attention to all paranormal groups a method I recently stumbled upon using a humidifier while investigating.  So far, it appears that when I use the humidifier, I get a large amount of residual EVPs.  I have everything detailed at my blog, which you can read by clicking the link below.

 Have a great week!

SUBJECT:  Haunted Christmas Wreath?

Jeff !

Thank you for the web info.  I want to share with you, that I bought a xmas wreath last November  2008.
Well it never died.  It's still green.  It never shedded.  You can still smell it.  My little girl (now 11) still talks to Joseph.  He died in the house 5 years before I bought it.  We think Joseph is keeping the wreath alive.

If you are intrigued, I would be very happy to send you a photo of the
wreath.  I would love to get your "expert" opinion.  I also put this on
a blog under Ghostly Experiences.

Let me know!

Rachel

Cheney, WA
Eastern Washington University
Dryden Hall- A contorted face of a man can be seen in the grain of the wood on door 203. Reportedly a young man commit suicide in the room in the 1960's. Strange cold spots, odors, and senses of panic have also been noticed on this floor.  Outside of the building there is a ghostly face that appears every night. The lights have been replaced and moved, but the face does not move

SUBJECT:  What is a Ghost?

Do you still wonder about that or do you have the answer?
 Thanks,
Carol

HI Carol,
It has taken me a few days to think about the answer to your question, and I still don't have the answer.  So I'll keep looking.  Do you have the answer yet either?

Jeff

 

Hi, Jeff.  I must say I was very intrigued by your website.  You are an excellent writer. 
 
I was wondering if you had considered writing some fiction based on your research and ideas which explores the answer to your question.  I was thinking that maybe you could employ the method mathematicians sometimes use to find an answer-- plug in a postulated value for a variable, solve the equation, test the answer, then if all comes out correct they have a solution.  If it comes out wrong they try a new postulate.  This is probably used in logic as well--- postulate what you think a ghost is, explore how that would apply in the scenarios you've come across, then if it would explain the scenario you have one possible answer for your data set. It seems natural that your talent for writing would lend itself well to a collection of short stories based on that exploration.
 
Somewhere in my reading, I ran across a statement that it is only in our modern times that people don't know much about ghosts.  According to that article, this was among other considerations of a spiritual nature which were lost from common knowledge as man moved into materialism.  If I recall correctly, it stated that hauntings were even a bit of a deterrent to dueling, as a killed opponent may perpetually haunt their enemy!
 
What got you interested in ghost hunting? 
Regards,
Carol

SUBJECT:  If you could help me answering these questions:

 

 

Hi my name is Victoria B., I'm a sophomore at Lee's Summit High School. I'm doing a research paper about ghost. My topic question is "What if ghosts aren't real, then what is it people claim that they saw a ghost?". I saw your article on the internet and thought that you might know how to answer that question, and many others such as:
   How many people have claimed they've seen a ghost?
   Could these people just possibly be going crazy?
   Do people see ghost more at night or day?
   Could these "ghosts" be spirits that haven’t passed over?
   If so, could there be any way to help these "ghosts"?
   
So if you could, if you get the chance to take a second and read/answer these questions, and I will let you know if I think of anymore. Please and thank you.

sincerely,
Victoria B

SUBJECT:  Haunted Walking Tour of Astoria

Hi Jeff,

My husband and I met  you last October when we were in Astoria.  We really enjoyed listening to your presentation and watching that really creepy movie, something with Christopher Lee..City of the Dead...City of the Damned...or maybe City of the Dead and Damned :)  I got kind of freaked out later that night when we got back to our Bed and Breakfast we were staying at, Britta's Inn.  The sound of someone running along the hallway and up the stairs woke me up.  It was probably just the inn keeper taking his dog out in the middle of the night.  I should have asked the next day.

Anyway, I wanted to ask your permission to refer to your book, Haunted Astoria, for one of my letterboxes.  A letterbox is a hidden little box with a hand-carved stamp and logbook.  People follow the clues from the internet (www.atlasquest.com or www.letterboxing.org) to find the box and stamp the stamp into their own logbook.  I'm thinking of hiding the box somewhere near the Hotel Elliot.    It is a really fun hobby.  I would put a link to your website and only briefly sum up a couple of the hauntings for my clue.  I would mention that they should buy your book so they can read the whole story and a bunch more.  I know they can buy the book at the Flavel House and probably a few of the other book stores around Astoria.  I hope you'll allow me to mention your book.

Maybe we'll see you in November when you are going to be in Astoria again..  Geez, maybe I should plan to have my box ready by then so you could try to find it :)

Looking forward to hearing back from you,

Renee Mt
