Default The Man(ghost) In a White Suit/On a White Horse!

This is true story that happened to me in a cemetery that I used to work in. The same cemetery that boobie MD in. I was cutting grass on a Allis-Chamin tractor that cemetery had. It was a big tractor it would fit just enough to get in between the rows of tombstones. I was in the old part of the cemetery were most of the civil war people were buried. As I turned the corner to do a path in between the rows, something caught my eye.
There was a man in a white suit on a white horse, he was dress with white gloves, he had a sword strapped to his side, a pure white hat. I stopped the tractor just a moment to check him out. In a moment he vanished. So I went on my business mowing the grass. I got a call from the office, that a young man was looking for his great,great,grandfather tombstone. I saw the young man,got off the tractor to help this young man find his grandfather tombstone. I found right away, it was 1st row up from the roadway, we started talking about his grandfather and how his was related and such. He had a paper rolled up in his hand. He said to me you want to see a picture of him. I said why not, he showed to me, I was shocked it was the ghost I just seen 5 minutes ago. That's the truth!

I truly believe you. I have known people that have these visions also, and even though it sounds so far fetched, it truly is an awesome ability.

I have been to an old army post in VA that is known to be haunted, and have seen things that most people wouldnt believe. I have a picture of a spirit sitting on top of a flag pole, but when I show most people, they cant see it.

The human mind can block out anything that it doesnt believe in, and unfortunately there will always be people that skeptics about the paranormal.

I would like to visit an old graveyard at night, but because I believe that I will see something "out of the ordinary", I am too "scared" to actually do it.

I lived in a haunted house about 20 years ago. My son was still in his crib, but he could talk and walk, and he often used to say there was a man in his room. The light would always be on in there at night, even after I had shut it off. The door would also open by itself. My son's toys that had been in a pile on the floor or in his closet were usually in his crib in the morning.

One night I decided to sleep in that room to see just how the toys were getting in there, as I knew my son couldn't get in and out of that crib by himself. In the middle of the night, I heard the Tonka toys (metal in those days, not plastic) clunking around as they were being "transported" and am ashamed to admit I ran from the room, scared.

Every November I would bake Christmas cookies and put them in the freezer. The freezer was outside the house, across a patio and inside the laundry room. It was a chest-style freezer with a lid that opened on the top. One morning I went into my son's room to find him sitting in his crib eating Christmas cookies. There is NO way he could have gotten out of his crib, reached the doorknob of the front door, reached the knob of the laundry room door, opened the freezer, reached down inside and grabbed cookies, shut the lid and then the two other doors and climbed back into his crib!

There were other things that happened there, too. I heard frantic whispering voices in the upstairs bedroom one night, sometimes heard my dining room chairs moving around, smelled smoke when there was none and heard loud booming noises against the walls. One time my son was in his crib holding an old postcard of a merchant marine ship. I heard from the woman who was postmaster at the time that the man who built the house had been in the merchant marines. He died the same week we moved into the house, but then, so did my father, so I was never sure who was haunting the place ... maybe both? (Still not sure if I believe in "life" in the "spirit" world, though.)

I have had a lot of other weird stuff happen. Will tell about one in the next post.

I was driving along a country road here where I live, headed home. I suddenly "saw" (in my mind) a brown log truck, loaded, taking its half of the road from the middle, on a narrow bridge that I was approaching. I was still a couple of turns away from the bridge and could not yet actually see it, but looked to see if there were any vehicles behind me and I slowed my speed considerably.

By the time I could see the bridge, a brown loaded log truck was on it, right in the middle of the road. If I had not slowed down, I would have met that truck on the bridge at the same time and would have either head-onned with it or tumbled over the guardrail and into the rocks and creek far below ... dead either way. Loaded log trucks coming downhill cannot stop fast and on a narrow bridge, they sure can't move aside.

I estimate that my life has been spared at least three times from "visions" like this. Can't explain it, and I am not even sure I need or want an explanation ... but I have learned to trust whatever causes it.

I just love this para normal stuff. I truly believe in angels and also when your time is up your time is up. Amazing things happen every day - we just have to be open to them in order to see them.

A couple of years ago when I purchased my home I was sound asleep. I had just gotten started in believing in angels and spirits. I remember waking up and sitting next to my bed was this figure. It was just sitting there watching me. I got a sense it was a female figure even though I could not see its face. It was really strange but I was not frightened. A strange calm came over me. I blinked my eyes and the figure was gone. Then about 3 weeks ago I was waking from a dream and saw this figure run from behind me to in front of me. I remember seeing it and saying to myself "Oh it is just you again". Then the figure disappeared. I think it was my guardian angel or my spirit guide.

I know this is supposed to be about scary things but sometimes things that are unexplainable happen for other reasons than to scare us. JoAnne
