So it's time for another ghost story (you can read my first one here ~ and Lynn left a ghost story in the comments section).
Picture it ~
A big old house in a small college town.
5 bedrooms
Drafty
big and old ~ did I already say that part?
Hardwood floors, cute little built ins ~ lots of character that I didn't appreciate while I lived there my junior year of college with 4 other lovely ladies!
Anyway, the main floor housed the kitchen, dining room, living room, sitting room, 1 bedroom, and the bathroom. Upstairs ~ the rest of the bedrooms.
It was a Sunday afternoon ~ a rare weekend actually, that I didn't drive "home" (an hour away) to work. I was sitting in the living room, all alone, in our big, old house. Probably watching some lifetime movie or something. :)
All of a sudden I heard creaking upstairs in one of the bedrooms. It was a rhythmic creaking, in one localized area. Not the sound of someone walking around. But a back and forth creaking sound. Like the sound of someone rocking in my roommates rocking chair...... upstairs. It continued for at least 3 minutes ~ continuously ~ creek..creek...creek...creek... ~ back and forth.
NO ONE WAS HOME BUT ME!!!!
After listening to it for awhile ~ I locked myself in my bedroom, with my headphones on and my head in a book!
I get goosebumps just thinking about it!
So do you believe? Do you have a story to tell?
I've got one more for you that I'll tell you on Sunday ~ and on Sunday I'll host a linky party ~ I want to hear your ghost stories! Come on, get ready to freak me out :)

Oh my goodness Wendy I've got to share... I've also heard like a rocking chair was rocking in that home that I wrote about the other day.. I could hear it rocking back and forth..and back and forth, as I was laying in my bed! The only thing is... there wasn't any upstairs, it was just the roof area attic that just had the wood beams..No floor of any sort.. I helped put in insullation up in the roof attic so that I could see what it looked like up there, and there's no way that a rocking chair could sit there and rock back and forth with the wood beams as they were situated... Scary!! I only heard it one time, but that was plenty enough for me!
Blessings,
~Lynn
