In September of 1996, we moved into what is known as an
upside-down house. The front door, bathroom, and bedrooms are
downstairs, and the lounge, kitchen, and garden are upstairs.
We had two dogs, a German Shepard and a Springer spaniel called
Sally.
One day I was in the kitchen cooking and I heard a thumping down the
stairs. I walked into the hall to see what I thought was our spaniel
returning from her walk with my husband. She ran downstairs and I went
to put the kettle on. I came to look for her, but she wasn't there. In
fact it was over an hour later before they came home.
I told my husband, who told me he had seen the same dog bounding
downstairs on many occasions, and then at the bottom of the stairs she
vanishes.
In the same house, in my bedroom, there was an old lady in a long
nightdress with long white hair who used to stand over the bed while my
husband and I were sleeping. She always gave me a feeling of security
and comfort whenever we saw her.
In the year 2000 we moved into this new house. My best friend and
her mother, who was a medium, used to live here. I was warned once when
my friend was younger and she was alone in the house she heard a loud
banging coming from what is now my bedroom. She ran upstairs and saw
sitting on her mother's bed, two elderly woman appearing to be having a
conversation. She ran out of the house and wouldn't return until her
mother fetched her from a friend's house.
We have heard people walking down the private alley next to our
house, even though we always keep the front and back gates locked and it
is only our alley.
