The house my wife and I lived in while we were in Tampa was one where we never felt settled. It just never seemed like our home no matter what changes we made to it. Now this is odd because we have managed to do that everywhere else we have been. But this house was really different, for reasons we would not own up to until just before we sold the place to move to Arizona.
On more than on occassion I would find cold spots in the house. Now this is really strange for Florida, even with the air blowing full blast. But there would be spots where the air would be really cold, well beyond anything the air conditioning could do. I also had a few experiences where I would wake up with no covers on me... or the bed at all. I always tried to rationalize these things and never let them bother me that much, but after a while I would find excuses to not go home if I didn't have to.
The night it all came to a head my wife and I were in the bedroom watching some TV. My bloodhound, who is the most loving dog in the world, was sitting out at the front door growling aggressively, staring at a spot of in space about 7 1/2 feet from the ground. I went out and gave him the command to come, and he ignored me (not much of a surprise, bloodhounds have a mind of their own). I went over and gave him a nudge with my knee and shuffled off with his tail between his legs, all the time never taking his eyes off of this point in space. He went around a corner and stared over a half wall at this same spot and continued to growl.
Now I'm not sure how many of you guys are dog people, but I have never seen a dog show an ability to discern multi-dimensions. That mean to me that something was there and the damn dog could see/sense it and I couldn't. My wife came out and saw what was going on and she told me it was "the ghost". I was like WTF? That's when she told me that ever since we moved into the place that she had been seeing aparations in the house when she was home alone. Everything clicked, from the cold spots in the house, to things moving, to the dog's behavour. Lucky for us we got an opportunity to get out of the house within the month and took advantage of it.
Something else that was really strange about this place too, our backyard used to get tick and roach infestations, while out neighbors had none. We had a huge shed in the backyard that the dogs just wouldn't go near, even if it was pouring rain and that was the only cover available. I really feel that there was some negative energy in the place and that attracted all the strange things that took place in the house.
