Ghosts and the Paranormal

My daughter, who works at UGa, was sitting in a stall in a bathroom she knew was otherwise empty. Suddenly, a roll of toilet paper came flying over the wall and bonked her on the head.

OK, another story. This week, the bell rang and I told the incoming class to wait in the hall while I ran down to get something from another teacher. I was gone less than a minute. As I got within a few feet of my room, the lights went out and the door, which had been open a couple of feet, slammed shut in their faces.

Naturally, this scared the ones in the front and I leapt in to see if someone had sneaked in and was messing with us. Nope.

Not ready for spooky season.

Today before my planning period, I trotted down the hall to the restroom, leaving the door open. I came right back and the door was locked. Not jammed, but locked!

The campus cop came down to open the door and we distinctly heard the bolt slide...it had definitely been locked and not jammed. In case someone had gone in and was still in there, he jumped in to clear the area but no one was there. I pulled my keys out of my desk and showed him how they'd been there, that I hadn't taken them with me. He then told me many stories about scary things that had happened in the school. 🙁

Then he went to look at the school camera to see if anyone had been messing with my door while I was out and he came back and said no, I was out for 3 1/2 minutes and no one had approached the door, that it had just shut. Then during last period, a rigid poster that had been leaning against the board inexplicably fell forward. 🙁 🙁

By the end of school, the custodians had heard and they told me a ton more scary stories about the building. When I got home, Georgia Power had managed to cut into both our gas and water lines and we currently have neither. I think that was a fitting end to the day.

I have never experienced any ghost or paranormal activity. I do wonder if they do really exist though.

Until about 25 years ago, I would've said I didn't believe in them. Since then, I have seen a lot, and now I don't know what I believe or what I think about it. Several of the stories are in this and another thread, and I would not waste my time lying or exaggerating about this stuff.
